In the eastern suburbs of Huangyun Capital City, there was a buzz of people.
At a glance, there were hundreds of thousands of people coming to watch this year's competition. It was crowded and extremely lively.
On the circular stands, there were many young people holding various luminous signs or banners.
There are also many people holding short sticks made of some kind of luminous stone, with the most famous young geniuses or famous masters among the contestants engraved on them.
Of course, the number of times a young genius's name appears on luminous boards, luminous banners, and luminous sticks is much higher than that of a famous master.
For the young girls in the Tianwu world who are extremely talented, the appeal of Yushu Linfeng's young talent is completely unmatched by the "old bacon" masters who have been around for hundreds of years.
When some young heroes or handsome geniuses enter the vast arena, the girls in the ring dance wildly with the glow sticks in their hands and scream the names of the people they admire.
When Chen Xuan, Ji Tingsha, and Ke Hengyi arrived at the competition ground, they were all a little shocked by the battle.
Especially Chen Xuan, when he saw a large proportion of young girls among the hundreds of thousands of viewers screaming wildly, he felt a sense of déjà vu.
But Chen Xuan's attention quickly turned to the VIP desk.
He basically didn't know any of the big shots present at the inspection, except for Xuan Feng, who was sitting on the edge.
What surprised Chen Xuan was that none of the big figures from the Holy Martial Empire who inspected the first round of the competition were at the Star level.
On the other side of the referee's table, there were several people who were familiar to Chen Xuan, such as Zu Zhitang, the dean of the Fourth Academy of Imperial City.
Jing Yu, the director of Crimson Laurel Branch, actually came to serve as the referee.
Moreover, the branch dean, who was always nervous, specifically cast a "concerned" look at Chen Xuan.
But in the eyes of others, Jing Yuan seemed to be glaring at Chen Xuan.
"Look, that's Hua Ji Tingsha, the dean of our fourth academy, and the only young genius participating as a student in this competition!"
I don't know who shouted something, and a group of students sitting in a certain area on the third-level circular bleacher stood up and waved flags and cheers for Ji Tingsha.
Chen Xuan smiled slightly when he saw that the luminous sticks held by these students were emitting a dreamy rose-red color, which was exactly the same color as Ji Tingsha's left eye.
"I didn't expect you, a monster student from Crimson Laurel Branch, to be admired by people?"
"Why, can't I have admirers?
My beauty alone can win the hearts of many young people time and time again."
Ji Tingsha raised her chin and responded with a little pride.
Chen Xuan shook his head and smiled, noncommittal.
At this time, Chen Xuan heard someone calling him at the entrance of another competition venue not far away: "Brother Chen, Brother Chen!"
Chen Xuan turned around and saw that the people calling him were the cute guys from the Combat Department of the Wuying Department.
Xiao Hui, A Long, Lin Qiang and other young "heroes" are here.
As more than a dozen heroes of the Wuyingbu entered the stage, cheers and screams erupted from the stands.
The one who is called the most is Lin Qiang, the "Silver Hand Man".
As for the Gray-clothed Man and the Divine-Eye Man, there are only a few of them.
The Tianwu world is obviously a world where looks are based on appearance. Lin Qiang has a better appearance than Xiao Hui and Alon, and his attack skills are more handsome, so it is normal for him to have more admirers than Xiao Hui and Alon.
However, after seeing Chen Xuan, Lin Qiang felt ashamed and lowered his head slightly, not daring to respond to the cheers of his admirers.
Chen Xuan didn't care about this. After briefly greeting these martial arts masters, he frowned and looked at the entrance far away on the opposite side.
I saw Gu Feiluan leading the year's number one genius from all the major martial arts cities in the territory, high-spirited and arrogant, walking into the competition arena. Suddenly, screams came one after another, and the sound like the howling of ghosts and gods gave people the illusion of breaking the eardrums.
.
"Everyone in the audience, let us warmly welcome Gu Feiluan, the strongest young genius of the Huangyun Military Department, Prince Si De, the first genius of the Huangyun Royal Family, and the first genius of the year in each major martial arts city to enter!"
The host standing on the ten-meter-high platform in the center of the competition field held a loudspeaker conch and said loudly.
Suddenly, the audience burst into thunderous applause, shouts, and cheers spread far from the outskirts of Beijing, startling many birds.
Gu Feiluan took the lead, standing proudly and quietly enjoying the cheers of the crowd; with his arrogant character, he would never respond to the audience in any way.
Prince Sid and the Wucheng geniuses all smiled and waved to the admirers in the ring.
"These guys are actually given special welcome treatment when they come out, especially Gu Feiluan, a genius who is a little better than others on our weakest auxiliary star. Those who don't know better think he is a five-star hero."
Xiao Hui looked at it with contempt.
Those contestants who had nothing to do with the military or the royal family were a little unhappy when they saw this scene.
Especially the group of famous experts gathered at several entrances. They didn't care at all whether they had any admirers. They just saw that Gu Feiluan's popularity was ten times more popular than when they were young, and they still felt unhappy after all.
There is another point. Gu Feiluan's age should clearly be assigned to the young genius group, but he signed up for the famous master group. Doesn't this make it clear that he looks down on their "seniors" who have practiced for more than a hundred years?
Sensing some unhappy glances, Gu Feiluan didn't take it seriously at all. He liked the feeling of others looking at him displeased. When the time came to actually fight, he would feel even more pleasure in torturing others.
After the applause and cheers subsided slightly, the host spoke again: "All contestants, please stand on the sidelines and wait. Audiences, please sit down and keep quiet. Then, please invite a very famous super genius from the highest academy of the Shengwu Empire.
It’s your favorite senior Xuan Feng who is here to announce the methods and rules of this year’s joint competition.”
After the host finished his last words, hundreds of thousands of people turned their eyes to Xuan Feng, who was sitting at the VIP table.
"It's about to be announced. I wonder what new competition will be this year?"
Ji Tingsha looked forward to it.
Chen Xuan was very puzzled: "Why, isn't the annual competition not about one-on-one promotion?"
"Stupid uncle, you are so lazy that you asked me to help you sign up for the competition. You actually don't understand that the joint competition is different every year. The competition method is different. It is not as simple and boring as you thought."
Ji Tingsha gave Chen Xuan a look of contempt.
Chen Xuan did not argue with this little girl and turned to look in the direction of the VIP table.
I saw Xuan Feng stand up calmly, holding an exquisite treasure box inlaid with gold and jade in his hand. After he silently recited the magic formula, the treasure box opened, and a divine light flashed inside, revealing an ordinary small paper ball.
Xuan Feng picked up the small ball of paper, opened it under the expectant eyes of countless people, and said in a loud voice: "This year's martial arts competition method was drawn up by Empress Sheng Yunying of the Shengwu Empire. She wrote down the competition methods and rules.
On this note, I, Xuan Feng, solemnly announce that this year’s joint competition will be... um?"
Xuan Feng was stunned on the spot when he saw the words on the note.
This aroused the curiosity of hundreds of thousands of people at the scene. They couldn't wait to know what was written on the note. However, the note was restricted and only Xuan Feng could see it.
"Senior Xuanfeng, make an announcement quickly!"
Many people urged.
Xuan Feng had no choice but to cough lightly and return to his normal expression: "This year's competition is in the form of combat Cuju!"
