Weak Players

In the first match of the quarter finals, Ruling Sword was up against Seventh Heaven.

Lu Li quietly entered the arena like Water fairy had asked him to. In fact, not many players were concerned with the change in Lu Li’s cloak.

As for the ring, that was even less obvious.

Lucky Southern Persian, Empty, Hornet’s Nest and Vast Silence were the four experienced professional players, alongside a new player, Rainy Season. This was Seventh Heaven’s lineup.

It was simply unrealistic for a team of newbies to win in the quarter finals.

All four clubs from Peerless City, Gale Legion, Seventh Heaven and Ruling Sword had sent their strongest players.

In the Magic Cup, the championship prize was not even 1 million dollars. As for the ticket revenue, only the winning team received that money; the game company and organizers took a large cut.

There was also the popularity effect, where advertisers could contact players about endorsements.
