Chapter 249 - The Contest Officially Begins
At the beginning of the Seven Directions Contest, the officials had carried out various publicity through all channels since the decision to hold this grand event.
Today, this grand event, almost under the circumstance of the whole people\'s attention, kicked off!
At Martial City\'s Martial League Academy, a group of students was arranged together to watch the opening ceremony together.
On the northwest front of the country, while soldiers, mercenaries, and casual warriors were busy, they also managed to look up at the live broadcast on the propaganda screen from time to time. However, their viewing was always intermittent, because the attack of the abyssal demons was also intermittent.
...
At this time, all the people of C Country, no matter where they were or what they were doing, all stayed in front of the screen.
The reason why this grand event had received so much attention was that it was a display of force.
Every strong person who appeared in the event represented the existing powerful power of the country.
With these warriors, regardless of whether they could come to them and solve the abyssal demons around them, they were still comforted in their hearts. This was enough.
As for the protagonist of this event, it was none other than that group of geniuses.
They represented the future of the country and a source of endless hope.
...
At the opening ceremony.
The host was the country leader. For such a big event, it was natural that these high-level people needed to show up directly in order to show high standards.
He didn\'t say much, and the general content basically revolved around abyssal demons and imperial power.
In the audience, people were not as sleepy as they were when they listened to teacher lectures when they were in school. They listened carefully one by one.
After the speech, there was a silent ceremony.
After that, "This is the home of the warriors and the venue for the shining youths. I am an ordinary little old man, so I won\'t say too much nonsense. Let\'s go directly to the award ceremony. Please invite His Excellency Blue Bolt Sovereign and His Excellency Skyless Lord over! "
C Country\'s leader was highly powerful, and he was not young, probably in his seventies.
But not to mention the status, let alone the age, Yang Song and Huang Zhen were two generations older than him, so he used absolute honorifics.
"Two honorable masters, please!"
This sound was made by the leader again!
"Two honorable masters, please!"
This sound was made by everyone in the venue!
"Two honorable masters, please!"
And this sound was shouted in the hearts of everyone in front of the live screen!
Born in this era, everyone knew that it was because there were noble-class powerhouses that there were peace and prosperity and healthy life.
This went deep into the cognitive system of every C Country person.
In this scene of tens of thousands of people invited, Zhang Yujin stood up like everyone else.
In this situation, she finally dared to look at the mythical man next to her.
Who could refuse such a man?
Even Huang Zhen, a guy with a bad reputation, had countless admirers, or even women who were chasing him wildly at any cost.
At this moment, Zhang Yujin, whose mood was also very surging amidst the waves of people\'s shouts, made a crazy decision in her heart under the influence of the environment.
...
Huang Zhen took the lead to get up, "They are so passionate."
"Senior, let\'s go."
Yang Song took a breath, and then slowly got up.
This time, the two did not use any skills, they just walked towards the stage step by step under the eyes of the public, under countless cameras.
The shouts of the people at the scene became more and more high-pitched with every step they took.
Finally, when both of them were on the stage, Huang Zhen slightly raised his hand to signal, and lightly patted the microphone before the scene calmed down.
The award ceremony also required the two of them to say something with motivational meaning.
Huang Zhen and Yang Song had casual temperaments, so they just said a few words casually.
Of course, even so, countless media picked out one or two sentences from the simple words of the two of them, interpreted them in various ways, and then regarded them as golden words.
The awarding ceremony was also the last process of the opening ceremony.
After this process, in the passionate voice of the country leader, the Seven Directions Contest had officially begun!
...
The people on the big square dispersed, and the ultra-high-strength arenas, which had been prepared for a long time, were arranged one by one in a very short time.
Due to its particularity, this contest did not have any audience seats.
However, all media channels, all satellite TVs, were broadcasting live throughout the whole process, and even which TV station specifically broadcast which competition arena was clearly assigned.
Today... no, it should be said that before the end of the knockout round, the Blue Bolt Sect would at most have one competition.
And the player was Yao He.
As the only member of the Blue Bolt Sect who was not a seeded player, he could only participate in the knockout tournament alone.
And his competition had become the only focus of the entire Blue Bolt Sect.
Of course, his round was in the afternoon, so everyone did what they should in the morning.
Among them, because of the competition system, each organization was required to referee.
In addition to maintaining the rules of the game, the referee also had to prevent casualties from happening. Therefore, even if there were many arenas, the referee required should at least a B-rank warrior or above!
Although there were few people from the Blue Bolt Sect, Feng Yi still had works to do every day.
As for the others, except Yao He who was preparing for the battle, they were all going around watching the game.
