Her match was in Zone C, which represents one of the four arenas within the zone.
There are four arenas inside the stadium, and four more next door.
There are eight zones in total, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H, and each match cannot exceed thirty minutes.
Therefore, if the game is still undecided within 30 minutes, overtime will be added, and the rules will be changed to a points-based system.
Whoever gets the most points wins.
The previous match in Yuan Mengge's division lasted less than thirty minutes and ended very quickly.
If a match ends early, the next match will start earlier.
"Contestants in Zone C, please prepare for the next match. The second match will begin in three minutes," the announcer announced.
The area around the stadium was packed with people.
Everyone gathered around to watch the spectacle.
After getting ready, Yuan Mengge walked to the side of the stage and waited to go on stage.
Her opponent walked to the other side of the platform and was warming up.
The referee quickly called the two players up.
Her opponent was a young man in his early twenties, who didn't say anything after she came on stage.
Although there was some disdain in his eyes, he didn't say anything.
The referee stood between the two players and then blew his whistle to announce the start of the match.
The moment the referee left the field, the opposing team immediately attacked Yuan Mengge.
Yuan Mengge dodged the attack by sidestepping, and at the same time, she raised her hand and grabbed the opponent's fist. She then quickly turned and kicked, sweeping across the opponent's lower body.
At the same time, he threw the other person away with an over-the-shoulder throw.
"Bang—" The opponent was knocked to the ground before he could react.
He reacted quickly and scrambled to his feet.
He looked at Yuan Mengge with some surprise, because his carelessness had cost him the first victory.
An initial victory can significantly impact morale.
Now he finally got serious.
Yuan Mengge could guess what kind of boxing he used just from his movements and posture.
The opponent was using Hung Gar Kung Fu, a style of Southern Fist, which is quite famous.
Moreover, Yuan Mengge could sense that her opponent's skills were quite solid. If she hadn't been careless at the beginning, her lower body wouldn't have been so relaxed.
Once the opponent realized what was happening, he immediately took a step to stabilize his lower body and stared at her with his fists raised.
Yuan Mengge simply watched him quietly, without launching any offensive.
She had just performed a simple over-the-shoulder throw, so her opponent naturally couldn't tell which faction she belonged to.
So now her opponents are surrounding her, seemingly considering her fighting style.
After suffering a setback with his punches earlier, he's now reluctant to throw a punch directly.
As the other person circled around her, Yuan Mengge suddenly turned around and threw a punch at him when he got behind her.
Because her opponent was still some distance away, she reacted quickly when she threw a punch.
He quickly raised his hand to block her punch, but by then Yuan Mengge had already kicked him.
The opponent dodged to the side, avoiding her leg strike, and simultaneously raised his foot to block her leg.
Yuan Mengge quickly retracted her leg, swiftly closed in, and suddenly threw a punch at her opponent's face.
The other person reacted quickly, raising their hand to block her fists.
But Yuan Mengge was quick and very strong.
It hit the opponent's hand directly, forcing them to retreat with difficulty.
This cornered the opponent, but he quickly launched a counterattack.
*
He suddenly bent down and rammed his head into Yuan Mengge's abdomen.
If Yuan Mengge doesn't dodge, he will bump into her waist, grab her waist, and then attack her waist.
So she quickly dodged to the side, but at the same time she raised her leg and kicked at the other person's waist.
"Hmm!" The opponent didn't expect that she could control her body to attack him while dodging.
So he couldn't dodge in time and was kicked in the stomach by Yuan Mengge.
Despite being struck in the abdomen, Yuan Mengge did not stop but continued kicking.
After being struck repeatedly in the abdomen, the opponent collapsed to the ground.
After seeing the other person lie down, Yuan Mengge stepped back.
The referee stepped forward to count down the seconds.
Three seconds ago, the opponent struggled to his feet, clutching his abdomen to indicate that he could continue the game.
Upon seeing this, the referee stepped aside.
Seeing that the other party had stood up, Yuan Mengge attacked again without saying a word.
The opponent hurriedly defended against her offensive, but soon could not hold on.
Yuan Mengge punched him in the face, almost knocking out his teeth.
In the end, Yuan Mengge won the match easily, and the game ended early.
After her match ends, she can go back and wait for the next one.
However, she didn't go back up; instead, she continued to watch other people's matches from the sidelines.
After watching the game all day, I finally returned to the hotel.
During dinner, Liang Hao reviewed the day's match with her, saying, "Was your match time a bit slow today? With your ability, you should have been able to finish faster."
Yuan Mengge said, "Yes, but I don't want it to end too soon. We've come all this way to compete, so we should have some fun."
Liang Hao looked at her and sighed helplessly.
"What's so fun about it?"
After the preliminary rounds, there was a one-day rest period before the next round began.
In the following matches, you will play three games against the same opponent, and you will advance by winning two games.
During her rest period, Yuan Mengge didn't stay quietly in the hotel; instead, she secretly slipped out to have some fun... no, she slipped out to do good deeds and make money.
When she returned in the middle of the night, she saw Liang Hao standing with his arms crossed in front of his chest, leaning against the door waiting for her.
Yuan Mengge: "..."
Liang Hao said, "I'm quite curious. You've been disappearing every night for the past two days. What have you been up to that time of night?"
Yuan Mengge's eyes darted around, and she said perfunctorily, "Um... I went out for a late-night snack..."
Liang Hao looked doubtful: "Really?"
Yuan Mengge nodded: "Mm!"
Liang Hao rolled his eyes: "Do you think I'd believe that?"
Yuan Mengge: "Uh..."
Liang Hao looked at her intently for a moment, then sighed and said, "If you don't want to talk about it, fine. I won't ask about the past... But since I brought you out, I'm also responsible for your safety. What would I do if something happened to you? Don't you want to consider things from my perspective?"
Yuan Mengge's lips twitched: "...Uh, sorry, Master. I understand, I won't go."
Liang Hao tilted his head and asked, "Are you sure?"
Yuan Mengge gave an awkward smile: "...Hehe..."
So for the next few days, she had no choice but to behave herself.
In the second-level competition, after three matches, Yuan Mengge won as expected.
The final competition will be held at a different venue.
Moreover, the finals don't start until three days later, so the players will have three days to rest.
So Liang Hao took Yuan Mengge out of their current hotel and went to the venue for the finals, where they found a hotel to stay.
Because of the events these past few days, a lot of people have come here, and many hotels and inns nearby are full of people staying here.
