Chapter 221: Registration
The registration procedure is very simple, Ji Tianci filled out the registration form in advance, and it is all basic information such as name, gender, nationality, etc., and no one investigates whether this information is true or false. The only thing on the registration form is that the "age" column says "to be filled out by the staff." ”
Several European female staff members sit around a European-style round table. Each contestant who comes to register must first submit the registration form, then the staff will check their age, and finally pay for the participation card.
When Ji Tianci knew that the registration fee was 100,000 US dollars, Li Fanzhi told him that most of these registration fees were venue construction fees, and some of them were used to invite S-class healers to be off-site doctors.
Fortunately, Ji Tianci has a rich "father-in-law", and 100,000 US dollars is nothing to him.
Ji Tianci handed over the registration form to the staff at the round table, and a young woman looked at Ji Tianci suspiciously after reading the registration.
"Mr. Ji, I see that you are not yet 24 years old, right? Are you sure to sign up for the Senior God of War Competition?"
As soon as these words were asked, the other three staff members around the round table also turned their eyes. One of them, a middle-aged woman in a light green dress, motioned for Ji Tianci to stretch out her left hand.
Ji Tianci knew that this was to check the age. Before coming here, Li Fanzhi said that the impartial personnel who check the age of the Fengshen Cup are all masters of the Mu clan from all over the world, and they can see people's "annual rings", and it is difficult for S-level powerhouses to deceive them.
I saw that the woman pressed the four fingers of her right hand on Ji Tianci's left wrist, some of which were like cutting pulses, but the fingering was very different. Ji Tianci felt a gentle wood aura enter his body, exploring his bones.
Just three seconds passed, and the woman asked in surprise, "Are you not yet 18?"
Ji Tianci nodded. The staff member did not withdraw his hand, but continued to explore Ji Tianci's skin tissue, pupils, and nervous system with wood spirit power.
Lu Manwen, who was not far away, saw that the staff had been holding Ji Tianci's wrist, and the inspection time was far longer than the normal time, so she couldn't help but ask: "Is there anything wrong with Ji Tianci? Why does the inspection take so long?"
Li Fanzhi, who was beside him, thought for a while and replied: "It may be that he is going to compete across levels, so he needs to check carefully." ”
After a while, the inspector took a deep look at Ji Tianci, and then wrote "17" in the "age" column of the registration form.
Subsequently, another staff member motioned to Ji Tianci to pay the registration fee. After Ji Tianci swiped the card, the staff gave him a mobile phone-like participation card.
This entry card is an electronic instrument, and the contestants need to "iris matching" after receiving the participation card, just like fingerprint encryption. After Ji Tianci finished matching, a number "534" was displayed on this "small tablet", and this number was Ji Tianci's registration number.
You can also check the information of the Fengshen Cup on the participation card, watch the videos of other players, and whenever there is a player's game to be played, this certificate will continue to remind the players.
After Ji Tianci received the documents, everyone kept looking around this small screen. "534" means that 534 people have signed up for the adult group God of War Competition, and the information of each player is public, of course, these materials are also provided by the players themselves, and the reference value is not great.
The rules of the God of War qualifiers are very cruel, judging from the participation in previous years, the number of applicants is about 1,000 people, and the competition will be carried out in a group of 128 people. In the seventh round of the group stage, the losing side still has the opportunity to play in the lower bracket, and only one player from the lower bracket will enter the knockout round.
The knockout round is the same as the knockout round of the Civil World Cup, and the champions, runners-up and third runners-up will finally enter the top 32 of the Fengshen Cup.
Today is Friday, and starting next Monday, there will be a week of high-intensity competition, one game a day, and half of the competitors will be eliminated on the first day. The winner of Sunday's match will advance to the Asia-Pacific knockout round, which will take place a month later, during which qualifiers will be held in other disciplines.
……
It's night, and Mabur Island is bustling with activity. The organizer arranged rooms for the contestants, but the rooms of the relatives and friends group were very tight, and many contestants also left with the relatives and friends group after registering.
Ji Tianci found that there were a lot of Nine Shadows competing here, and Li Fanzhi kept greeting the other Nine Shadows. Everyone was very excited after knowing that Ji Tianci was competing in a cross-level competition, and they asked Ji Tianci how strong he was. And Ji Tianci only replied that he was about C-level strength, and did not say that he had an artifact.
Everyone actually understands in their hearts that this kid is by no means just C-level strength, otherwise, he would only send the registration fee to the senior group.
After dinner, the Japanese "Serving the Gods and Souls" folk delegation also came here, and this group was chartered to Malaysia. There are only about ten contestants, but with the addition of relatives and friends, there are nearly 100 people in total, and Mai Future is also among them.
The 100 people were uniformly dressed, and Ji Tianci received a call from Mai Future very early, and their group was already waiting at the port.
After these Japanese people got off the boat, Ji Tianci found that something was wrong, it seemed that the people of Mai's family were not treated by other Japanese, Mai Katsuhei and Mai Future walked around one or twenty people, and the others separated from them as soon as they got off the boat.
Lu An smiled when he saw Ji Tianci's puzzled expression, "You still don't know what happened to the Mai family a few days ago, right?"
"What's the matter?" Ji Tianci asked.
"Mai Katsuhei's eldest son, who is Mai's future uncle, Mai Kangcheng, openly made a statement a few days ago accusing the Japanese authorities of not visiting the Yasukuni Shrine and not enshrined war criminals.
Mai Kangcheng is the 'secretary general' of Japan's largest opposition party*, and he issued an article bitterly criticizing the Japanese authorities' misconduct, and the fierceness of his remarks made people very happy! The most interesting thing is that the Japanese authorities cannot refute what he said, because the historical facts are right there, and this is equivalent to giving the Japanese authorities a slap in the face.
However, this has also offended many Japanese elites, and the Mai family still has many supporters in the Japanese people, but most of the Japanese interest groups have drawn a line with their family. ”
Ji Tianci frowned and asked, "Why did the Mai family do this?"
Lu An shook his head, "I don't know, but I admire their family now." Although their family is on the side of justice, many people in Japan have accused their family of 'treason'. Not only Mai Kangcheng, but also the entire Mai family has made great moves, and people in the educational circles of the Mai family have called on Japanese teenagers to write an objective history in textbooks, and not to cover up the truth of history, let alone distort history. And the Japanese authorities have been silent, and you can imagine how annoyed they are, hehe, this is a fig leaf that has been lifted for them!"
Although Lu Manwen didn't understand politics, he also heard the seriousness of the tense at this time, "Didn't the Mai family offend a lot of powerful people, can they still live well in Japan?"
"Daughter, their family is really having a hard time right now. Yesterday, I also heard that the products in the Mai family business were found to be unqualified by their domestic quality inspection department, and even harmful to health, and they were all seized and banned from being sold in China, and these products are likely to be forcibly destroyed. This is a huge economic blow to the Mai family, but I don't know how strong their family background is, in case the capital chain is broken, the entire family will face bankruptcy. ”
"It's already that serious?"
Ji Tianci was surprised, looked at the people of the Mai family who came towards him, and sympathized with them from the bottom of his heart.
