If the game tomorrow was the usual battle of strength, he wouldn't have set up this meeting. But because of the changes made in the tournament's gameplay, they could no longer rely on strength alone. Especially since the theme for tomorrow's match was 'Amazing Race.'
He knew that their success would depend on more than just raw power. The 'Amazing Race' theme required quick thinking, adaptability, and flawless teamwork. He hated to admit it, but thinking strategically wasn't exactly their team's strong suit. But if they wanted to win against Yunyue, they had to push past that.
Even more so because the team that won tomorrow would most likely face Team Fenghuang in the semi-finals. Team Mozu still hadn't gotten back at that annoying bird team. He Zhi Long remembered their previous loss and the frustration that came with it. Just remembering how people said Fenghuang was the better team made him want to smash something.
So winning tomorrow wasn't just about advancing; it was about getting their revenge and proving to everyone that they were far superior to Fenghuang. But for that to happen, winning tomorrow was imperative.
He Zhi Long looked at his team members once more. "So, is no one going to offer any helpful advice?"
"Captain, do we really need to make a plan?" Wang Bin, known in the game as Korrinth, said in a complaining tone. "It's not really our style."
"We can just eliminate them one by one. If there are no opponents left, we automatically win, right?" Su Yu, known in the game as Zephyr, said with a straight face, clearly believing his own words. "I want to go one-on-one with the latest Rookie Carnival champion."
Zhuo Meimei, the only female player among the four leading members of the team, rolled her eyes. "You two really do share the same brain cell."
Wang Bin narrowed his eyes at Zhuo Meimei. "Hey, Zhuo Meimei, what do you mean by that?"
"The fact that you have to ask that just proves my point," Zhuo Meimei said sarcastically.
"You--"
"Stop it. Focus on the Captain's question," Liu Jun, known in the game as Draeken, said, cutting off the two before they could bicker. "You all know we can't afford to lose tomorrow, right? If we lose and Fenghuang wins, we'll be a laughingstock to their supporters. They'll say we're inferior to Fenghuang. Is that what you want?"
This way, every team has an equal chance to demonstrate their skills and strategy."
"You will now receive the rules for this round. Please read them carefully. In five minutes, you will be transported to your starting points and given your first clue, which will lead you to the next checkpoint," Lena added.
After that, the teams began receiving the rules for this round.
[Amazing Race - Arcadia Version!
- Upon arrival at the starting point, each team will receive their first clue. Clues will guide you through various checkpoints until you reach the finish line.
- You have one hour to reach the finish line. If no team reaches it within this time, the team closest to the finish line will be considered the winner.
- You are allowed to obstruct the opposing team, but remember to balance this with focusing on your own progress. Decide whether it's better to hinder your opponent or concentrate on the race.
- Teams must complete all checkpoints in sequence; skipping any checkpoint will result in disqualification.
- All methods of reaching your destination are permitted, except for teleportation scrolls or teleportation skills.
Good luck!]
Luo Yan read the rules and subconsciously smiled. Teleportation was the only restriction, which meant flying was allowed. Their team had four members who could fly, two of whom were dragons. However, transforming into their original forms might not be the best method in this scenario. Since they would be like moving targets if they did.
Anyway, knowing they had this advantage was better than nothing.
