After dealing with the last matter at hand, Kurosawa, his relatives, friends and company employees informed him and left Haitang City.

This year's Provincial Super League was not held in Changchuan, but in Jinliang City.

Kurosawa had never been to this city before.

Among the first-tier cities, three second-tier cities and one quasi-second-tier city in Hanquan Province, the only ones he has been to are Changchuan, Guchuan and Haitang.

And when I was in Guchuan, I only lived in a border town for a while and then changed my way.

However, although he has never been to Jinliang City, it does not mean that he knows nothing about the city.

Jinliang City is a well-known medicinal material city in Hanquan Province. For example, a large part of the miraculous resource supply in Haitang City is transported from Jinliang City.

The reason behind this is that near Jinliang City, there are a large number of subspaces with favorable conditions and rich in magical plants. Magical crops are easy to grow in it, and according to incomplete statistics, the probability of randomly spawning magical resources in Jinliang City is 5 times that of other cities. times up.

It can be said that in Hanquan Province, Jinliang City is the city that most conforms to the traditional culture's image of Dongtianfudi.

The unique advantages also make the life and work of urban residents here closely related to medicinal materials, and the per capita income ranks first in the province, even the provincial capital Changchuan can't keep up.

However, while God opens a window for you, he may also secretly close a door for you.

Sitting in such a favorable location, Jinliang City rarely has talented geniuses at the elf league level. It seems that it has been cursed. The number of geniuses in this city is obviously less than that of the other three cities, and more often It still relies on resources to pile up.

However, this method of resource accumulation is more difficult to achieve any effect in the later stage.

Therefore, Jinliang City's high-end power at the elf teacher level is the weakest among the several big cities in Hanquan Province, but its grassroots strength is unique, and the overall elf culture is strong.

The 2024 Provincial Super League will be held in such a city.

The provincial Super League is generally held alternately in the cities of Changchuan, Guchuan, Taixiang, and Jinliang. The specific city in that year depends on the situation of the corresponding deep secrets around the city.

It has been five years since Jinliang City held the highest-level Provincial Super League in the province last time.

Perhaps it was because he did not serve as the host in some years, but Jin Liang paid special attention to the Provincial Super League this year.

As soon as Kurosawa stepped into the territory of Jinliang, he immediately felt the very different atmosphere of the competition from last year in Changchuan City.

Last year's 2023 Changchuan-Provincial Super League was very low-key overall, but Jinliang League treated it with extra grandeur. This may be the difference between the provincial capital and other cities.

The provincial capital has held too many major events, so it is not particularly cherished for the opportunity to hold events.

In a small town on the outskirts of Jinliang City.

Heise walked on the side of the street, the road was not considered wide, but it was extremely smooth, and the sidewalks and bicycle lanes on both sides were not potholed at all.

There are many flowers and plants planted in the yard of every household, and there are also medicinal crops in the fields farther away. Although they are not precious magical plants, they are also common medicinal materials that can be used as auxiliary materials.

Beside the old farmer in the field, there are two dog elves, running in circles beside him, roaring from time to time to drive away the crows circling in the sky.

Passers-by walking on the side of the road are walking rock rabbits.

All the scenes tell visitors that this is a prosperous, quiet, slow-paced, and full of life atmosphere town.

In terms of elf atmosphere, Jinliang City is indeed the first existence among the cities that Kurosawa has been to.

This is easy to understand. People's living standards are higher, and when the basic material conditions are met, there will be more spare money to invest in elves. What's more, the key project of the city's own management is medicinal materials, and low-level elf masters will benefit the most. .

However, the atmosphere is a little too comfortable and relaxed. Perhaps it is because of the overall soothing tone of life that the elf masters in this city do not have too much pressure in life, but instead lack the motivation to struggle.

Kurosawa pondered silently in his mind.

Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why the number of elite players under such superior objective conditions is not as high as that of Nagakawa, Taisang, and Furukawa.

As for the curse words circulating on the Internet, Kurosawa has never believed in them.

Kurosawa took the tram and passed through several small towns.

Almost every town has a large number of elves, without exception.

Of course, the elves kept in many residents' homes do not have a contract circuit in their bodies, and they are artificially bred elves that lack growth and aggression, and are only suitable for keeping as pets.

The tram traveled for several stops, and finally Kurosawa arrived at the destination of this trip, Shanmu Town
The moment the tram drove into the town, Kurosawa saw the promotional page of the Provincial Super League on the billboard flashing outside the track.

He even saw his makeup photo inside, which should have been taken in the provincial finals last year.

At the same time, there are photos and information of other players, all of which are very detailed.

Although the Provincial League One held in Jinliang City cannot be completely open to the audience due to objective conditions, there are corresponding offline activities.

Kurosawa left the tram stop, and the others ignored his presence.

He used his stealth skills to walk among the crowd.

Although the Jinliang City League has a special contracted hotel to receive players participating in the Provincial Super League, Heisawa does not plan to live in it.

He came here in a low-key manner, definitely in order to be less disturbed before the start of the game, so how could he live in the players' hotel with a big fanfare.

Next, Kuisawa visited and traveled around Shanmu Town for two days.

In a blink of an eye, the day of the competition came.

Shanmu Town has turned into a hot home stadium.

In the bar and restaurant, a large number of tourists, citizens and even new elf masters gathered together to wait for the start of the competition.

Big glasses of bubbling beer were sent to various seats by the waiter.

Several young men and women with cameras were walking around, interviewing people as soon as they caught them, especially those who clearly looked like wizards with elves in their arms.

Either it is a live broadcast, or it is an internet celebrity who is shooting a video.

"Whose fan are you?"

"Are there any players who are more supportive?"

"Miss Fen!"

"Snow King!"

The home field advantage is fully reflected.

In many interviews, the support rate of the players in Jinliang City is the highest.

However, well-known players from various cities also frequently appeared in the interviewees' mouths.

Especially young spectators, compared to middle-aged spectators, Kurosawa appears more frequently in their answers.

Although Kurosawa's ranking in the provincial Super League last time was not very satisfactory, he is still very popular among young people.

-

Early in the morning, Kuisawa met Ning Yexing, whom he had met in the Provincial Super League last time.

The trio still chose to participate this year.

Ning Yexing is a bit distasteful about his integrity. Although he dislikes the trouble of the game, he still won't miss it when facing the highest-level league in Quanhanquan Province.

The number of contestants this year was a few more than last year, up to 58.

"I don't have time to look for you a few times. If we meet in this year's competition, I won't hold back." Ning Yexing thumped Kurosawa's shoulder and said with a smile.

"You'd better not meet me, I'd be embarrassed to send you away with my own hands."

Kurosawa was sincere when he spoke, but Ning Yexing didn't take it to heart.

Kurosawa felt helpless when he saw that he didn't care about it.

However, he is aiming for the top places this year.

But looking at the energy value of the core elves, he doesn't have much advantage over those veteran top masters, but he also has more cards and bonuses. Kurosawa thinks he is still very competitive.

Although because of the mediocre record last year, no one will put him in the ranks of the championship players.

"Welcome all contestants to Shanmu Town, I am the host Lou Ting."

In the venue, 58 players from the Provincial Super League gathered together.

Everyone is watching each other.

Especially for some relatively young players. The old players are stronger, but the room for improvement is relatively small. One year cannot bring about much change. testing each other.

In fact, in private, they may have learned about the strength of other players through their own channels, last year's league videos, battle videos played in the past year, and so on.

Heise sat on his seat, staring intently at the host on stage explaining the rules of the Provincial Super League.

He didn't go out of his way to collect intelligence on his opponents. Of course, due to the nature of his work, other people must have limited understanding of him. There is a high probability that he can only judge his strength by watching the video of last year's provincial first and provincial super games.

But if that's the case, the result of the judgment will only be completely different.

His current strength is completely several times that of last year's own strength.

Half an hour later, the presentation on stage was over.

The rules of this competition are the same as last time.

The game is still played in the wild.

For the master, the size of the venue is too limited, and it is difficult to display the strength of the super elves.

In terms of the overall competition system, the mechanism of first point knockout, followed by the top 16 main match to determine the champion is still adopted.

The top [-] contestants in the last competition will get the seed players, and the remaining four places will be born through knockout.

Like last year, Kurosawa also needs to participate in the knockout round and get the top four points before he can advance to the main match.

For some reason, he clearly had confidence in his own strength, but when the match started, he was still a little nervous and excited.

After all, during his time in Haitang City, although his strength improved rapidly, after all, he hadn't fought against other master-level elves for two months.

Just relying on personal practice, lacking real battles, there is no yardstick to judge one's own strength.

The elf battle is not a numerical game. Pull out the elves and compare the energy value to determine the winner.

meeting dismiss.

The players chatted with other players while leaving the field.

For some players, the Provincial Super League is the best platform to meet other wizards.

It's hard to meet each other at other times.

"Hi, let's meet, Heisawa, I'm Gu Jihong, I didn't participate last year."

"Hello."

Kurosawa shook his hand.

He didn't have any impression of the person coming in front of him.

But this is normal.

Isn't the significance of the Provincial Super League just like this, to make friends in the same province who are unfamiliar with each other, or even have never met before, strengthen each other.

Walking out of the venue where the meeting was held, there was a large group of reporters and media people outside.

Changchuan TV, Taixiang Newspaper, Jinliang Online.
Kurosawa also saw the host of Haitang TV station inside.

He is still somewhat familiar with his hometown TV station.

He saw Kurosawa walking towards him.

The host had a warm smile on his face.

"Contestant Kurosawa, say hello to the audience friends?"

"Hi everyone, I'm Kurosawa."

"How is the recent status? As the only seedling in Haitang City, fans are very concerned about this issue?"

"It's not bad. After all, I returned to Haitang more than a month in advance to prepare for the Provincial Super League. Both my personal status and the physical status of the elves should be improving."

"Hearing you say that, I and the fans in front of the TV will feel more at ease." The host's smile became brighter. "Good luck with your game!"

He and the audience in front of the TV both heaved a sigh of relief and became more confident.

Kurosawa's consistent style is that he doesn't like to talk big, and says what he has.

After the host of Haitang TV station took the initiative to end the interview, media people from Jinliang City, Changchuan City and other places also approached.

Although in various prediction programs, Kurosawa has nothing to do with the hottest championship players, and his name cannot be seen in the top ten or even top twenty pre-match media rankings, but this does not prevent him from still being a The most topical and discussed contestant in Hanquan Province.

Kurosawa, Jinliang, and Tai all have a large number of fan bases in Changchuan, and it is clear that he will only become stronger in the future. Compared with stronger veteran players, he is more worthy of fans We look forward to it.

"Contestant Kurosawa, welcome to Jinliang City. Have you traveled around these days? Is there any place that left a deep impression on you?" The media in Jinliang City handed the microphone to Heize.

"I went to the hot spring resort in Changli Town for two days and experienced the famous nourishing medicinal food in Jinliang City. I was deeply impressed by Jinliang's customs and food."

Kurosawa had some nice words to say.

He knew that Jinliang's media and audience would definitely want to be recognized. It is human nature and understandable, and he would not deliberately say something disappointing. Besides, Jinliang City really gave him a good impression. It is a very livable city.

When Jin Liang's reporter heard Kurosawa's praise, he beamed with pride.

"If you like it, I also recommend you to come after the game"

The reporter enthusiastically recommended a series of tourist attractions. It can be seen that he is very enthusiastic and has no resistance to Kurosawa, a foreign player.
