Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

Day 1 of the qualifiers.

The effect of the program is straight forward.

With a vast number of players of varying skill levels, all sorts of hilarious and poorly executed plays are constantly emerging.

The first match.

The contestant with the ID "Light of the First Generation" used Ultraman as their character.

He fired the Specium Ray three times into the air.

The first attempt missed.

The second time, the shot missed.

The third attempt also missed.

Energy bar empty.

Then he was killed by Zoffy's basic attack.

The comments section was bursting with laughter:

"Even my grandma could do this better!"

"Three beams of light all missed? Are you kidding me?"

Zoffy: Thanks for the points, bro.

"First Generation: I don't want this human form anymore, whoever wants it can have it."

The second match.

The player with the ID "Ace Guillotine" wanted to show off his "vertical guillotine" move.

He fiddled with the arrow keys for a long time.

Then, the skill is used.

The vertical guillotine blade cleaved down towards his feet.

He committed suicide on the spot.

The opponent, Ultraman Taro, stood there, completely bewildered.

The barrage of comments exploded:

"A vertical guillotine cut yourself? Director Ace would be furious if he saw that!"

"This is a real guillotine, used to cut off your own head."

Ace: Are you fucking kidding me?

"This is hilarious! I give this move a perfect score!"

The third match.

The player with the ID "Leo's Unparalleled Physical Skills" is playing Ultraman Leo.

A flurry of actions, but the damage was only 0.5.

The opponent, Ultraman Taro, walked leisurely to the corner of the wall.

Start supporting.

a bit.

Two times.

Three times.

Leo was pinned to the wall and died.

Bullet comments:

Leo: I'm the King of Fighters, you think you can just stand against me like that?

"Taro: King of Fighters? How about a corner warrior?"

"This is making my blood pressure rise."

"An Ultraman eating contest, huh? I've already eaten three bowls!"

But amidst the joy, true masters also begin to emerge.

The player with the ID "Leo Benou" brought Leo's fighting characteristics to the extreme, with his punches and kicks flowing smoothly, and he repeatedly made a comeback from low health and achieved the feat of defeating five opponents at once.

The player with the ID "Heisei no Hikari" can switch between the three forms at will.

His fighting style is as agile as a ghost, making it impossible for his opponents to even touch him.

The Ace player with the ID "Guillotine Wholesaler" has mastered Ace's rich array of beam skills, exerting immense pressure and often leaving opponents breathless.

The professional analysis provided by "Xiaohai" Zeng Zhuojun in the commentary booth made the audience exclaim that they learned a lot.

"Look closely, this Leo player canceled the afterswing immediately after the kick landed and followed up with a low flying kick."

"When Tiga is in his powerful form, he has invincibility frames, which can be used to dodge throws. That last move was a perfect example of taking advantage of that."

"Ace's Metallium Beam has a trick involving charging up to feint. Look at him, he pretends to charge up, the opponent jumps over, and he immediately cancels it to follow up with the Eight-Point Beam—brilliant!"

A week later.

The online qualifiers have ended.

128 contestants stood out and qualified to go to City A to participate in the offline main competition.

And on the very day the main competition roster was announced.

Ultraman Fighting Evolution has been updated quietly.

Version 1.1, new content: [The Light's reinforcements have arrived!]

New Ultraman characters added to the selectable list:

Neos, Grey, Power, Joneus, Eddy, Julian, Zayas...

These names are completely unfamiliar to the vast majority of players.

"???"

"Who are these people?"

"Another Ultraman? How come I've never seen him in anime?"

"Neo? Eddie? What strange names."

"How many Ultramen are still hidden in the Land of Light?! Is this game an Ultraman encyclopedia?!"

"Who cares! Being able to choose is strong! Let's practice quickly, maybe it'll be the answer in the new version!"

Despite the lack of a corresponding TV storyline to support it, it did not dampen the players' enthusiasm for research.

Each of the new characters has a unique skill set.

Neos's high-speed dash is impossible to defend against.

Gray's Australian-style fighting techniques are powerful and aggressive.

Powered's American hard-hitting power and more impactful lighting effects.

Jonias's powerful throw would draw blood from anyone who caught it.

Eddie's all-around fighting style is proficient in beam attacks, melee combat, and shields.

Julian's support aura can heal teammates, even though this is a fighting game.

Zearth's hilarious facial expressions, such as covering his face when using his skills, seem to be saying, "I'm too handsome to look at."

Players complained as they played:

"Why is Zearth covering his face when he uses his skill? Does he think he's too cool?"

"Julian can heal her teammates? This is a fighting game, sis!"

"Jonias's throw is insanely damaging! It takes away a whole health bar in one hit!"

"How can Eddie do everything? Beams, hand-to-hand combat, and even shields? An all-rounder?"

A new round of tactical development is in full swing.

City A International Convention and Exhibition Center.

128 contestants gathered.

The Land of Light fulfilled its promise.

All participants will be provided with first-class airfare and Marriott five-star hotels.

A daily participation subsidy of 600 yuan will be provided.

Some contestants posted photos of their plane tickets and hotel rooms on Weibo.

"This is the first time in my life I've ever flown first class, thanks to the Land of Light."

"The Marriott's breakfast is so lavish! Players can eat as much as they want with their credentials. I feel like my weight has already increased before the competition even starts."

"I did the math: round-trip airfare, five-star hotel, and a daily food allowance of 600 yuan... Wow, I'm coming to compete and not only am I not spending any money, I'm actually making a profit? Everbright, are you really worried we'll go hungry?!"

"Everbright: Since you're here, you're a guest. We must make sure everything is arranged clearly and comfortably for you! The players only need to focus on how to play well!"

The comments section was filled with sour grapes:

"If I start practicing 'Ultraman Fighting Evolution' from scratch now, is it too late for me to participate in the next competition?"

"This isn't a competition, it's a VIP experience!"

"Look at the treatment the athletes receive in the Land of Light, and then look at some other competitions... There's no harm in comparison!"

"Just for this treatment, I'll support whatever competition the Land of Light holds in the future! They really respect the athletes!"

Day 1 of the main competition.

The main stage of the convention center was packed to capacity.

The popularity of the Starlight Video live stream surged after Yang Qian's brief speech at the opening ceremony.

It surged directly to the platform's historical peak.

3.2 million.

This number is approaching the popularity of local Spring Festival Gala live broadcasts.

The screen was flooded with comments:

"Ultraman's Spring Festival Gala! Well deserved!"

"These numbers, this level of hype, the Land of Light is going crazy!"

"How much viewership did the Bakugan card battle livestream get on Tencent? It seems like it barely reached a fraction of that? (doge)"

"Stop the unwarranted criticism, Bakugan Boy worked really hard too. I heard it reached a peak of 3200 million views! (Keep doge emoji)"

"This is no longer a contest between two teams of the same caliber..."

From the round of 128 to 64, and then to the round of 64 to 32, the competition was intense and exciting, with many brilliant plays.

Every player who makes it this far is a master among masters.

The profound skills of professional or semi-professional fighting game players are beginning to truly shine.

The skills of professional fighting game players are beginning to truly shine.

Precise, frame-by-frame combo confirmation;

Differential attack at maximum range;

Meticulous and rigorous control of the vertical return;

A masterful psychological game...

Zeng Zhuojun, nicknamed "the kid," nodded frequently in the commentary booth.

"This Leo player's timing is very accurate, and the rhythm of light kicks catching heavy punches is perfect."

"Tiga players use the aerial mobility to create distractions; their strategy is very clear."

"Beautiful! Player Ace used the beam skill cancel-to-command throw combo, successfully catching the opponent's hesitation upon getting up. Very skillful play."

But the real climax.

It happened in a match between 32 and 16.
