Upon hearing this, Qin Yuan looked at his teammate with a surprised expression.
Hiding a powerful move?
revenge?
Are you kidding me?
Putting on that kind of circus act will only lead to self-humiliation in the end.
Being a shrewd man, he would never fall in the same place twice.
If he were to actually encounter Ye Gubai in the competition, he would turn and run without saying a word.
If he can't escape, he'll just surrender.
Seeing that Qin Yuan remained silent, the teammate said "oh" again. Just as he was about to say something more, another female teammate covered his mouth.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense."
"Can't you see the captain is thinking? Be quiet!"
This female teammate is quite intelligent; she could see Qin Yuan's predicament.
If he continues, Captain Qin Yuan won't be able to keep up the act.
While everyone was chatting and discussing, Shang Xianzhi appeared.
His entrance remained unchanged; he still arrived riding his cool mount.
"Students, after a year of hard work, you have all achieved something."
"Today's competition is a matter of national honor."
"I hope that some of you will step forward and bring glory to the country."
During the conversation, Shang Xianzhi noticed Ye Gubai in the room.
"Huh? What's he doing here?" A question flashed through Shang Xianzhi's mind.
Then he realized what was happening.
"I forgot he met the level requirement and didn't notify him about the competition. Fortunately, he came on his own!" Shang Xianzhi blamed herself.
When he went to find Ye Gubai, all he could think about was his niece.
Afterwards, he was distracted by other matters at the academy and completely forgot about Ye Gubai's rank.
Fortunately, Ye Gubai came to participate in this competition on his own.
"With him here, this competition is a sure thing!" Shang Xianzhi thought to herself.
As for the polite words that were originally meant to be said, they were left unsaid because of Ye Gubai's appearance.
Those motivational platitudes were meant to encourage everyone to work hard and strive for a good ranking.
However, right now, even a freakish genius like Ye Gubai is participating.
My ranking is definitely secure.
So why waste time with all that nonsense? Let's just start fighting!
"Alright, begin teleportation!"
Shang Xianzhi immediately stopped speaking and focused her mind to begin communicating with the formation.
This sudden scene caught the trainees off guard.
Are you kidding me?
You said it was time to eat, and then you just took the dishes away?
Is this kind of sudden jump in progress just to confuse everyone?
Before the students could even utter a few complaints, the teleportation power appeared.
When they registered, they were marked with the will of Blue Star.
Once the teleportation array is activated, one can be teleported into the competition venue.
The general approach is not much different from the last time.
Having gained experience, Ye Gubai and the others were not flustered at all.
After the teleportation power dissipated, they arrived at the venue of the competition.
The venue for this competition is a perfectly preserved city.
The towering buildings look somewhat like New York, the capital of the Flying Eagle Empire.
"Wow, you've gone abroad!" Yu Meiyu joked.
"The buildings here are so tall."
Liu Mei put down her game console and began to carefully examine the building in front of her.
They were currently suspended in the sky, surrounded by many strangers.
The contestants had both fair and dark skin, and they all appeared to be from foreign countries.
——
Blue Star's Will:
The preliminary rounds will begin in 30 minutes!
The competition rules are set in a melting pot, employing a collective free-for-all combat system!
Each team operates independently; forming groups in any form is not allowed!
The venue will gradually shrink over time until only one hundred teams remain!
Number of participating teams: 10 million
——
"...My God." Zi Yue Ru couldn't help but exclaim after reading the rules and the number of teams.
Ye Gubai was speechless and said, "Ten million teams, that number is too outrageous."
"That many people are half the population of my country..." Yu Meiyu said with a self-deprecating laugh.
Their country is small in area and has a small population.
The entire country combined is not as big as a single province of the Tianlong Empire.
In terms of numbers, needless to say.
Even if she were the most outstanding student at Li Gao Academy, she would only be ranked in the middle level if placed in Tianlong Academy.
"This so-called melting pot mode is actually just a survival mode."
"As long as you persist until you reach the top 100, you will win."
"Furthermore, I noticed that this competition doesn't have a points system anymore."
Ye Gubai gave a brief analysis, pointing out the key issue.
"One thousand teams is roughly equivalent to forty million people."
"If we leave it all in New York City, it's not actually that much."
"Is it like the feeling of people coming and going on the street on a normal day?"
Zi Yueru pondered, recalling scenes from the streets on ordinary days.
"That's pretty much it. Just find a high vantage point to hold it." Ye Gubai didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
The large number of people involved doesn't have much impact on him.
With the ultimate demonic sword technique, Ten Thousand Swords Return to One, he fears no group battle.
Anyone who dares to attack him will only face certain death.
Time flew by as Ye Gubai and the others chatted.
This competition has only one venue in front of us.
If you don't enter within the specified time, it's considered a failure.
Once the time was up, the battle began immediately, and it was impossible to teleport back in.
