In the following days, not only was the news network broadcasting information about the national competition, but various media and portal websites, like sharks smelling the smell of blood, also began to rush to report on it. All kinds of rumors and gossip spread like wildfire.
Some portals speculate that the country is making a big move and wants to promote the power of monks and people with supernatural powers to make the whole people more enthusiastic about cultivation.
There are also people who maliciously spread the news that the world is about to change. Monks and people with supernatural powers will become the nobility of the new world, and ordinary people will never be able to make a difference.
This situation became more and more intense. For a time, the news was trembling, people were panicking, and the whole of China was shaken by these news.
I don’t know for what purpose. This time, the country did not take action to stop the spread of these inappropriate remarks, which made a small number of people believe it to be true.
As a result, many people have picked up the simple cultivation methods announced by the state again. Even if the cultivation progress is slow, they must grit their teeth and persevere.
This may be what the country really wants to see achieved.
But no matter what, this national competition is imperative and will not be canceled or postponed due to any external factors.
For many contestants like Zhou Shiqi who will go to Shuntian City to participate in the national competition, they will be the least affected.
Of course, the pressure is not too small to say the least.
After all, they need to compete with contestants from all over the country. Who knows how many evil geniuses will stand out in this national competition?
The national competition adopts a single-elimination elimination system. If a team loses, it can only pack up and go home.
Correspondingly, the resources and welfare benefits of the city where the losing team is located will be reduced proportionally next year.
In fact, this is what gives many contestants the biggest headache.
If you lose, you lose. After all, in a game, there must be winners and losers.
Aren’t all major events in China always promoting friendship first and competition second?
But this time the national competition is different. If you lose, not only will your face be disgraced, but the city where your team is located will also be unlucky. At that time, you will be ridiculed by some people, and everyone will spit on them.
I'm afraid it could drown someone.
Thinking of that horrific scene, countless contestants from all over the country who had confirmed their participation in the competition all looked solemn. They swore that they would fight until the last moment even if they risked their lives this time.
Even if you lose, you must lose vigorously!
…
Chang'an City, a fitness center filled with various fitness equipment.
A thin young man gritted his teeth and was sweating profusely.
Beside him, a pretty girl frowned and hesitated to speak.
After a long while, the young man put down the fitness equipment in his hands and started breathing heavily.
His body was steaming with heat, and sweat was dripping to the ground.
Seeing the young man stop moving, the girl quickly wiped the sweat from his face with the towel in her hand.
Immediately afterwards, the girl picked up a bottle of mineral water from the ground, unscrewed the cap and brought it to the young man's mouth.
The young man looked helpless, but he did not refuse the girl's kindness.
After drinking several large gulps of mineral water, the young man suddenly coughed and said: "Rong Rong, actually you don't have to stay with me all the time, I'm alone..."
"No, I won't keep an eye on you. What if you mess around?" The girl named Rongrong raised her eyebrows and pushed the young man down to the ground. "You give me a good rest and then practice again."
!”
Seeing someone pointing at them not far away, the young man couldn't help but blush and muttered in a low voice: "Really, she is more in charge than my mother."
"What did you say?!" Rongrong stared like an angry little wild cat.
His expression was suffocated, and a big drop of sweat fell down his face. The young man quickly waved his hands and said with a smile: "I didn't say anything, haha."
Sighing, Rongrong looked at the young man beside her with a distressed expression, and her tone couldn't help softening: "Wang Xin, we grew up together. I know you are very strong, but you have been frail and sick since you were a child, and your health has never been good.
, high-intensity training will break down your body."
"Teacher Zhao said that your path is different from that of ordinary monks. You are born with superhuman mental power, but your Qi refining techniques are not comparable to those of ordinary people."
"If you practice the mental power cultivation method that Teacher Zhao has prepared for you, won't you also be able to become a peerless powerhouse?"
The expression on his face was changing for a long time. Wang Xin's eyes were deep and he said calmly: "Rongrong, I know you care about me, but there are some things I can't tell you yet. But don't worry, my body is
I know best, and I will definitely not mess around."
"You should go back to practice quickly. There is still more than a month left. With your talent, you still have a chance to win a place in the competition."
"Humph, just leave, I don't care about you!" Rongrong stamped her feet and walked away angrily.
Looking at Rongrong's retreating back, Wang Xin gently stroked his heart with his hand and murmured: "I have a hunch that it is about to mature..."
…
Luoyang City, an empty and flat place.
Six young men and women stood back to back, looking around nervously.
Suddenly, everyone's expressions became stern, and they saw a shadow as black as ink in the distance, traveling across the ground as fast as lightning, and heading towards their direction quickly.
"Disperse!" someone shouted.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately dispersed.
"Huh? Where has he gone?" Someone glanced at the ground in surprise.
Suddenly, someone's expression suddenly changed: "No, he must have taken the opportunity to blend into the shadow of one of us."
As soon as these words came out, everyone lowered their heads and looked at the shadows at their feet.
"Ah!" One of the beautiful girls in short skirts suddenly let out an angry scream, "Handa, you big perverted wolf, get out of my shadow."
The dark shadow fled for a distance, and then, a figure slowly rose from the ground.
This is a young man about 1.7 meters tall. He looks very handsome, but now he points to the girl wearing a short skirt with a sad and angry look: "Xiao Mei, why do you wear a short skirt again?"
Safety pants?”
"I hate the guy who invented safety pants. This is definitely an invention against humanity!"
The pretty girl in a short skirt turned dark at that moment, and was so angry that she was shaking all over. She gritted her teeth and looked at Han Da, wishing she could bite him to death.
The other people also looked helpless, can you even ask for a face?
You have been well trained to peeping, so just peeping, but you still have the nerve to accuse someone of wearing safety pants?
