Although the celestial ball is very popular, it is actually not a national sport in the true sense.

In fact, there are also football-like games in this world, but compared to the celestial ball, which has become a noble sports such as Earth equestrian and golf, the influence of football is too small.

Regardless of whether the noble magicians will put down their figure and a group of mud legs running around the entire arena, the physical materials of the magic swordsmen can easily crush some professional football players...

Under completely unequal conditions, sports like basketball, football, table tennis, etc. will have much less fun in this world - just like no one will particularly like an online game where he cannot recharge himself, but there are a large group of RMB players who can crush him like himself and other civilian players.

Therefore, instead of watching that boring football game, it is better to watch a game where civilians have been excluded from the beginning - only magical people like Magic Swordsmen and Magicians can play the celestial ball. Compared to football, at least the celestial ball looks more gorgeous and interesting.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there are audiences who just want to see a group of people with noble identities flying around the field and grab a ball to the death. In the anonymous investigations of some chambers of commerce, this type of audience accounts for a considerable proportion...

The game of Tianba is a bit like football played with tennis rackets.

There are eight players in each team, a total of sixteen players. The athletes use rackets to avoid the repulsive ball while using their rackets to score the golden ball into the storage bubble guarded by the opponent's team. A total of sixty minutes is only divided into two games. The team with high scores wins, and the team with the same score enters overtime. The team with the first score wins.

Although the rules are simple, the investment required for such a competition is amazing.

First of all, the most basic large magic array "Ascendant Formation" formed based on a huge circular field. This magic array can form a spherical space with a diameter equal to that of the magic array one meter away from the ground. All athletes rely on this magic array to maintain themselves floating in the air and move through it by releasing magic power.

There are also balls. There are thirteen balls for the game, of which twelve are repulsive balls of different colors. These balls fly randomly in the spherical space through the magic power provided by the ascension array. As long as the distance between them is less than a certain value, they will be attracted. Of course, athletes who do not have a celestial ball in their hands can completely knock it away. In addition to the repulsive ball, there is also a golden ball that looks like a small sun and releases soft light. This is the scoring ball that athletes want to compete for, which is the so-called celestial ball.

Finally, there is the athletes’ equipment, a racket and a uniform.

The scientific name of the celestial ball restraint rattle is the celestial ball. It looks like a tennis racket without a net, but there is a film made of special magic in the original net. This film has a certain attraction to the celestial ball. As long as it can touch the celestial ball, it can stick it on it. However, this stickiness is not strong, and a strong impact can shake it down from above. At the same time, a strong rattle can also achieve the effect of knocking the celestial ball out. In addition, this layer of film has a strong repulsive force on the repulsive ball. Even if it is gently swing, it can knock it away far.

The uniform is very similar to the armor in the foil game, but in fact it is not armor (although it can also be considered armor in terms of hardness). There are magic circles that act as sensors everywhere in the uniform. As long as the athlete is hit by a repulsive ball, the signal will be transmitted to the racquet in the hands of the players through the uniform. The magic power acting as a net on the racquet will change. The gravity of the celestial ball will directly turn into repulsive force, which will pop out the celestial ball from the racquet.

Therefore, as long as someone grabs the celestial ball, the other team members will desperately hit the repulsive ball at him. He must take the celestial ball to cross a distance under the cover of bullets and teammates, and then outside the penalty area. Under the defense of the opponent's guardian, hit the celestial ball into a storage bubble similar to the goal.

Although it sounds a bit boring, after the official game, the colorful repulsive balls and golden celestial balls were very good in terms of viewing and fun against the athletes flying all over the field. It is precisely because of this that this sport is so popular with magicians and swordsmen and people who cannot play at all.

When Sivi followed Alina to the near the still-built sports field, she was thundered by the scene in front of her.

"What's going on with those two huge metal balls?" Sivi pointed to two spherical prototypes surrounded by several thick steel bars not far away and asked Alina.

"That is a mark used to give athletes the effective range of the Ascension Formation." Alina explained to Sivie: "Because there have been several games in the past, several careless players focused on the celestial ball and did not realize that they had flew out of the Ascension Formation Formation, and fell half dead. Therefore, in recent games, we have been required to make such a marking range. Because there are many teams participating in the competition this time, we Golovito is preparing to build two venues, so the game will be much faster and will not lengthen the schedule... Otherwise, even if the celestial ball competition can bring a lot of profits, it will consume a lot of more. In addition, there are probably not many people to come to see it in the early stage, which is generally not cost-effective. Of course, the last few games will not be held at the same time, and the time will be divided well, so that enthusiasts can fully enjoy this game!"

This is just to maximize the interests of the game... Xiwei complained, but he didn't intend to really say it out. After all, maximizing interests is normal for businessmen.

And it seems that Alina has also spent a lot of effort on the celestial ball competition and knows more about some things.

"What about that thick metal pillar?" Siwei asked again.

"That was not completed yet. It is said that there will be a huge scoreboard on it later, so that even those who have not obtained the ticket can know the situation of the battle immediately." Alina continued to answer without any hesitation: "In fact, the largest chambers of commerce planned to broadcast the competitions throughout the whole process, but because this magic imaging technology is not yet mature, not only the cost is huge, but there may be problems at any time, so in the end, they can only use scoreboards and some textual live instructions to set off the atmosphere."

Although it is a bit old-fashioned method, Xiwei has to admit that this method is very good, allowing some people who are interested in the game to stay near the arena and watch the scores and texts. At this time, some chambers of commerce responsible for selling beverages, snacks or other souvenirs can make a fortune. Even if those chambers of commerce do not intend to spend time in such small places, it is a good choice to charge vendors who come in to sell these things by dividing stalls.

In addition, there are probably things like gambling.

In short, it is to maximize the value of the celestial ball competition without any chance...

But this is not what Xiwei is struggling with.

"That...Mr. Adrick. Do you have anything strange to you?" Alina asked carefully at the strange-looking Severe.

"Should you say, don't you have anything strange?"

Siwei looked at the two iron balls not far away and the black and thick iron rod that soared into the sky between the two iron balls, and asked Alina.

"What?" The silver-haired girl looked at the stadium along Xiwei's gaze, with a look of confusion on her face.

"No, nothing." Sivi shook his head.

Unexpectedly, this girl who has been wearing a bunny girl costume is so pure, or is it actually he who is too evil?

Siwei looked at the court, with a distant expression on his face and haha: "Isn't this Armstrong's spiral acceleration jet Armstrong gun? It's so high in restoration..."

Alina still had a puzzled expression.

Just when Sivi had a headache and how to get away with it, his savior appeared.

"Ah, I found uncle!"

Because it was cloudy today, Shalanlia did not take her parasol out, or because it was cloudy today, she was a vampire and would go out during this period of time.

When the blue-haired girl saw Xiwei, she ran towards him without hesitation.

So Sevi also immediately pretended to be surprised and ignored Alina who was still thinking, and greeted Shalanlia: "Yo, Shalan. Did you come out so early today?"

"Yeah, because I can't sleep." The blue-haired girl nodded and said without thinking there was anything wrong with sleeping during the day.

Although she didn't feel anything when she saw Xiwei at first, after the two of them had a few conversations, she suddenly thought of what she said in the mirror.

Many people should have had this experience, reminding themselves not to think about something, but the more they remind, the harder it is to drive it out of their minds.

The same is true for Shalanlia now. She had never cared about Sivi before, or she had never regarded Sivi as a man at all, but now she couldn't help but start to care about this. Even though she tried hard to prevent herself from thinking about this, she couldn't help but care more and more about Sivi.

"What's wrong?" Sivi found that Shalanlia stared at her face straight, and couldn't help but reach out and touched her face: "Is there anything on my face?"

"No, nothing." The girl turned her gaze away in panic, and then realized that she was standing behind Sevi, looking at her Alina with curious eyes, so she quickly changed the subject: "Are you two dating?"

Although she didn't pay attention at the beginning, as soon as she said this, the girl felt her chest suddenly become stuffy, and an unexplained feeling spreading into her chest.

Maybe Shalanlia's expression was too obvious. Alina showed a little fox-like smile and generously extended her hand to Shalanlia that was a little rougher than her, but also as white as jade: "My name is Alina, Alina Simag. Just call me by my name. Also, don't worry, Mr. Adrick and I are just a business relationship."

"Why should I worry?" Sharan blushed and muttered in a low voice, but she still honestly reached out and shook Elina: "My name is Sharan? Chekovia, just call me Sharan."

"Okay, Miss Sharan." Alina's level of dealing with people was obviously much better than Saranlia. Even though the other party was reluctant to make money, she still said with a gentle smile: "I am visiting the celestial court with Mr. Alydek. Do you want to be with us?"

Facing Alina's invitation, Shalanlia seemed a little undecided.

However, Siwei asked curiously: "The stadium has not been completed yet. Is it really okay to invite irrelevant people like us to go now?"

After all, she is a client of the Chamber of Commerce to which she belongs, and to a certain extent, she has a relationship similar to the alliance, so she is still famous for her masters, but Shalan is purely the type that has nothing to do with each other. It should not be a good thing to bring strangers into the unfinished stadium in such a dignified manner.

"Will Miss Sharan destroy the court?" Alina asked.

"How is that possible!" Shalanlia immediately denied.

Although she does have the ability to destroy the stadium, even she will not do such meaningless things.

"Will that be enough?" Alina showed a sweet smile. Her eyes were curved like crescent moons. Even Cavi could not tell whether her smile was a smile from the heart or a fake smile for work purposes: "Although it has not been completed yet, the stadium was for the audience to see. As long as it is not ruined, it doesn't matter if it takes you there."

Although Sivi was still a little difficult to let go, he had no reason to refute it. Anyway, he took him to the stadium out of kindness. There was no need for him to refute the other party in such a place and let down Alina's show of kindness.

Even at the level of the Celestial Ball Competition, it is impossible to build a stadium in the city. It is a waste to build such a huge one-time building in a city where every inch of land is valuable. Naturally, a smart businessman would not do such a thing.

So the celestial stadium was actually built outside the city.

However, because it is not far from the city, you can even see the stadium in some places in the city, so enthusiasts will not give up watching the game because of the long journey. Some scholars also believe that after the celestial ball competition, the lord will likely use the celestial ball sports field as a center point and start to expand the city's city to the outside. The problems of insufficient living area and rising housing prices that appeared at the conferences many times were also solved.

After some inspection, the group left Golovito City and came to the still under construction of the celestial stadium.

In addition to the two huge iron balls and the pillars that can be seen in the distance, there are actually two buildings like the ancient Colosseum below the iron ball, which is where the audience watch the game.

It was different from what Xiwei thought at the beginning. He still underestimated the enthusiasm of those celestial ball lovers. The celestial ball court has become very lively now.

In addition to those enthusiastic construction workers, there are many tourists who are visiting around, but they still need to show their ID if they want to enter the field.

In addition, some clever stalls were also placed from the city to near the field outside the city.

After all, in order to prevent the construction from being disturbed by monsters in the wild, the lord stationed an army with great combat power here, and the Chamber of Commerce also hired many magic swordsmen to clean up the surroundings. In addition, some defensive magic that the Seven Stars Mage Association made a special trip to establish, the defense ability here is only less than that in the city. Unless there are natural disaster-level monsters that are so strong that humans cannot suppress, they will basically not threaten the safety of the arena.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about being hurt when setting up a stall here, but the tax will be slightly heavier than in the city, because the stationed troops will charge a certain amount of money from the stall owners as the official protection fee.

Xiwei even saw some stall owners with strong hands-on ability almost building a small house...

"It's so amazing. I thought this place would be blocked before it was built." Xiwei looked at the bustling scene around him and couldn't help but sigh: "After all, it's more common to use hunger marketing to increase your sense of expectation at this time."

"Although the method of blocking the news and increasing public expectations is good, several large chambers of commerce decided to develop the right to visit the outside world after discussing it. Because our guests are not just residents of Golovito City. Instead of using hunger marketing methods to increase the desire of the audience in a city, it is better to open the outside world to visit so that more people know about the competition. Moreover, because most people are not allowed to enter it now, there is also a certain concept of hunger marketing in it." Alina replied. This was the first time she heard of the word hunger marketing, but because she has been in the business world, she understood the meaning of this word soon, and it seemed that she was still very interested in it.

"Although I don't know what you are talking about, I feel so powerful..." Salanlia exclaimed.

Just as the three of them were talking about the competition, a commotion suddenly broke out in the tourist crowd not far away.

The three of them looked at that place at the same time and saw a man wearing a thick tuxedo in the hot summer and walking towards the stadium with a huge black wolfdog.

The black wolfdog was still burning with blue flames, and it looked particularly majestic and domineering.

Strangely, not only were the people around him not scared by the wolfhound, but most of them wanted to surround him and say hello to the man holding the wolfhound.

"Who is that guy?" Sivi asked Alina beside him.

"Mr. Ronal, a very famous celestial ball player, and an intermediate magician who passed the magic test." Alina did not disappoint Cevi and immediately gave the answer: "The celestial ball skills are great, and it is very popular among celestial ball enthusiasts. I guess they came here to get familiar with the stadium."

"I don't like him." Salanlia said with a stern face, giving people a feeling of anger in a child.

"So too." Sivie rarely agreed.

Although the other party was smiling and greeting the people around him, the contempt for others in his eyes made Siwei feel uncomfortable.

"Then let's go to the arena first?" Alina suggested: "If this happens, you don't have to meet him."

Just as Sivi and his friends were planning to follow Alina's suggestion to advance to the field, the riots not far away suddenly became serious.

Unlike before, people just wanted to squeeze over there, but now people want to run out.

"What's wrong?" Alina looked over there nervously.

"That guy's monster seems to have gone wild." Xiwei narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction where the riot occurred.

"It's coming to us!" As a vampire, Shalanlia immediately grasped the whereabouts of the monster and exclaimed in surprise. (To be continued...)
