Sun Shuai made all the necessary preparations and returned to the Sky Eye Room from outside.
He glanced around; inside the Skynet camera room, a dozen technicians were busy conducting final checks. Sun Shuai noticed that Elder Ji wasn't there and asked, "Where's Elder Ji?"
Assistant Zhang walked over and whispered in his ear, "Mr. Ji is in the secret room..."
Sun Shuai nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
He could understand Old Master Ji's feelings. Such a powerful intruder had infiltrated the town, and such an important confidential item was now stored in the town's secret room. It was normal for him to be worried and go to take a look.
Just then, Old Master Ji returned from outside.
Mr. Ji looked perfectly normal, just like any other person.
Sun Shuai glanced at Ji Lao and said, "Aren't you comfortable with the 'Record of Destruction'?"
Elder Ji said calmly, "Of course. We are keeping such a book of divine revelation safe. If we lose it, wouldn't we become the greatest sinners of the human race?"
Sun Shuai asked, "Do you think the other side might be after the Record of Annihilation?"
Professor Ji said, "Of course, that's a possibility."
Sun Shuai paused, then reminded him, "Even among the higher-ups, no more than twenty people know about the existence of that book."
Ji Lao said calmly, "But the fact that the dimensional key given by the Icebreaker was cracked already proves that there is an undercover agent among us, doesn't it?"
Sun Shuai fell silent and stopped talking.
"The match is about to end," said Old Ji calmly. "Marshal Sun, you should prepare for the worst and be ready to fight."
"Of course I know that." Sun Shuai snorted lightly. "If he really dares to do something, let him come. Even if he is a Myriad Manifestations level cultivator, he is still just one person. This is our human territory. What are we afraid of?"
Old Ji smiled slightly: "I hope so."
The one-hour break passed quickly.
"Dear viewers, our reporter is now broadcasting live from the semifinals of the 309th National Freshman Competition."
A female reporter stood in front of the camera with a professional smile on her face: "Let's take a look at the match list for the semifinals. The first match is between the most favored and hottest player in this competition, Mu Xun from Guigu Academy, and another hot player in this competition, Bai Liao from Zecheng High School with Extraordinary Serial Number 03. Aren't you all looking forward to it?"
The live stream chat was flooded with touching messages from Yan Guozi:
"Looking forward to your m?"
"I took a special day off to come to Yecheng, and suddenly they won't let us in!"
"Your event organizers are so irresponsible!"
"Damn it, give me my money back!"
reporter:"......"
"The semi-finals are about to begin," the referee announced. "According to the draw, the first match is Bai Liao vs. Mu Xun, and the second match is Lin Nai vs. Bai Shou."
He paused, turned to the preparation area, and asked, "Has Linnaeus returned yet?"
"Uh, well..." Tang Hongshan said, forcing himself to speak, "He should be back soon."
In reality, he himself wasn't confident either.
'Linnai, what are you doing, kid...?'
The referee sighed.
"Alright, let's start with the first match of the semifinals."
Bai Liao and Mu Xun quickly stepped onto the arena.
The random battle scenario for the two is: rainy season, forest.
"Hehe, I've finally found the opponent I've been looking for."
The two entered the scene. Bai Liao looked at Mu Xun and licked his lips: "I hope the people of Ghost Valley are really as strong as the legends say."
Mu Xun didn't waste any words: "Let's get started."
After saying that, the two immediately started fighting.
Both were superhumans who wielded weapons, so they immediately engaged in close combat.
Bai Liao wields a dagger, while Mu Xun uses his rusty bronze sword.
In an instant, swords clashed and shadows flashed, a dazzling display of skill...
Truman was taking notes while watching the fight between the two. Suddenly, he noticed that many more dimensional soldiers had appeared in various corners of the arena today. These soldiers were almost all fully armed, carrying soul energy guns and wearing blast suits and helmets.
Moreover, judging from their military ranks, none of them are low-ranking.
It should be that all the top-level superhuman warriors that Yecheng can offer are here.
He glanced up at the top of the stadium again.
The venue for the competition was similar to a large stadium, with an open-air roof.
Above the venue, more than a dozen drones could be seen flying around, seemingly conducting reconnaissance.
Truman recognized the models of those drones.
It is a war-use military model of the Dimensional Army.
This drone carries a high-powered soul energy weapon and is definitely not something that would be deployed in a regular competition.
Truman glanced at the soldiers again, then rubbed the pen against his chin a few times, seemingly lost in thought.
“Hey, Ze,” Truman suddenly said.
"Hmm?" Hua Lingze turned her head: "What's wrong?"
Truman said, "Don't you think it's very strange that the rules for this year's final were suddenly changed to not allow spectators in?"
“Haven’t we already discussed this?” Hua Lingze paused, then said, “It is indeed very strange. The explanation given by the competition organizers is only a safety issue, but it shouldn’t be that simple.”
“It’s definitely not that simple.” Truman pointed with his chin and said, “Look at those soldiers, they’ve already been stationed inside this stadium. And those war drones above the stadium, those are the GA9983 war-specific model, specially designed to counter dimensional invasions.”
