Contestants must not use their background or connections to gain an unfair advantage.
Furthermore, since it's a 24/7 live stream, it's even more impossible to fake.
If reported and verified, the participant will be disqualified from the competition.
However, the program did not specifically stipulate that contestants could not team up.
So, with the live broadcast about to begin, many players who knew each other during the event contacted each other.
The sole purpose is to form a team.
A considerable number of people chose to team up.
After all, once the competition starts, all contestants need to take responsibility for their own daily lives and complete each episode of the competition on their own.
Let's leave aside how each subsequent episode will turn out.
But now, the theme of the first episode is mecha.
The contestants are required to find the materials themselves and build their own mech.
It sounds simple, but if you want to build a better mech...
The materials required are extremely expensive and rare.
Especially for better mechs, the materials required are more expensive and scarcer.
If contestants choose to spend money to purchase the necessary materials, they need to earn that money in a short period of time.
This is something not everyone can do.
Moreover, the total cost of purchasing all materials, even at the very least, to build the lowest-level mech, would require at least tens of millions.
Not to mention high-level mechs, which often cost hundreds of millions.
You need to allocate at least ten days to half a month to build the mecha, right?
This means there are only two weeks left to make money.
That won't work at all.
Unless you're the kind of person who's exceptionally good at making money.
Otherwise, most contestants would choose the most convenient and effective method.
That means going to the production sites of raw materials in various places, such as jungles, mountains, restricted areas, trenches, and wastelands, to directly search for and collect raw materials.
But going to these places alone is too dangerous.
Even top-tier experts wouldn't dare venture into these dangerous places alone.
This is why most players are in a hurry to find teammates to cooperate with.
Of course, there are also some contestants who are confident enough in themselves, have strong abilities, and possess their own special skills.
This group of contestants chose to act alone.
Although it's a bit dangerous, it's faster and more efficient.
Then there wouldn't be so many problems.
Here, Ji Chaoyun and Jin Shangyue were walking in Haicheng, a city in the Huawu Federation, a country with moderate power.
The two strolled around leisurely, waiting for the competition to begin.
Two smart filming devices provided by the production team were already following the two of them.
The live stream hasn't started yet.
Ji Chaoyun looked around and thought, "We can't bring anything with us for a while, so we need to earn some money first to buy a new storage space."
"And what about the travel expenses to find raw materials, or does Yueyue want to directly purchase existing materials?"
Jin Shangyue shook her head: "Let's go find it ourselves. There's no point in buying it."
"We can even watch the drama unfold on the spot."
For Jinshangyue and Jichaoyun, making money was too easy.
There was no challenge at all.
If the two of them wanted to, they could earn at least tens or hundreds of billions in less than half a month, or at most three to five days.
Even more.
Even billions would be within easy reach.
But that's pointless.
Jin Shangyue had already learned from Dao Dao's surveillance that the seeds had begun to form teams and were going to find materials themselves.
She naturally wanted to go and see the excitement live.
Three hours passed quickly.
The grand final, jointly organized by thirteen academies, has officially begun its live broadcast.
The live stream rooms for all 5,578,901 contestants were opened simultaneously.
It was broadcast live to the world on the World Star Network's live streaming platform.
