The sky is getting brighter, the weather is still fine today, yesterday's snow has not melted, the morning sun is falling, and the white is shining brightly.

Doro really pulled Elsie to watch the sunrise, saying that he was looking, but in fact, he could only see the sky above him, and the surrounding area was covered by tall buildings.

Before he knew it, Elsie realized that he had woken up so early, and it would be dark for a while, but when Doro came out, he had obviously freshened up, and Elsie almost never woke up before Doro woke up, as if he hadn't slept.

The two stood for a long time, at this time, there was a sound behind them, Elsie turned around, some people wearing the costumes of the competition staff came from the back from the road next to the building in the middle, with trays in their hands, Elsie remembered that in addition to the courtyard in front, there seemed to be yards and houses in the back, but they were blocked tightly, and they were usually not visible.

Led by a slightly chubby old man with white hair and some kindness, he saw the two of them standing in the courtyard, and asked with a smile, "So early, hungry?"

Elsie tapped her cheek with a finger and said, "We woke up early and came out to watch the sunrise." ”

The chubby old man's smiling eyes narrowed, he beckoned, signaling the people behind him to bring the tray into the three buildings, and when he passed by, Elsie saw that it seemed to be some food, and the old man stopped in place: "You children are really interesting, where can you see the sunrise here?"

Elsie pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't speak.

"Come in, it's cold in the morning, don't freeze to death. You have to compete today, eat something hot, replenish some energy, and make sure to play well!" the old man carefully advised.

Elsie nodded in thanks and pulled Doro into the building before the old man left.

After the people waiting for Qi Shenglini on the first floor have finished breakfast, everyone will set off immediately, and there will be a unified team of competition personnel to lead the way, so they need to set off together.

"I don't know what the playing field will look like, and I'm a little inexplicably looking forward to it. Elsie secretly said in his heart, and followed the large army to the central square, but they did not walk towards the huge teleportation array in the center, but the slightly smaller teleportation array next to it.

"Teleportation within the city. Dusen explained.

All the staff entered in batches, and after the familiar dazzling light and weightlessness, Elsie opened his eyes with uncontrollable amazement.

"Good...... It's magnificent!" Looking at the scene in front of him, Elsie couldn't help but exclaim: "We're ...... Heavenly?!"

Basically all the children are here for the first time, and there are many amazing things like Elsie.

The floor is paved with strange stones of unknown material, tightly sealed, pale gray plane, shining in the morning sun, yes, this huge platform is exposed in mid-air, and the beautiful morning glow is in the distance!

Elsie looked around, the platform should be roughly circular, and the area was immeasurable for the time being, but there were already hundreds of people around one after another, but it was still insignificant for this place, and there was space here, except for the platform itself. Elsie was a little puzzled by how they could play in such a place.

Seeing that more and more people are coming, some of the competition personnel came out of nowhere, maybe the system wore it, at this time they are maintaining order, let everyone retreat to the safe area, there is still a lot of safe space behind, and there is no need to worry about falling, the students are gathered to the edge, after seeing that no one is missing, a competition system personnel said something to the strange disc device in his hand, and after a while, there was a loud bang between heaven and earth.

"It's thundering, the weather looks pretty good. Elsie was startled and stepped back.

Immediately after, the sound became faint and dense, sounding like some huge mechanism that had started to work, and the tightly knit floor tiles in the center of the platform suddenly cracked, cracking in the shape of ripples, and the sound sounded intermittently, and something seemed to be activated under the platform, and it began to function.

The ground cracked, gradually turning into a ring with uneven corners but a perfect fit with the edge, with a peculiar mechanical arm in the center, starting from the middle point, all the rings began to rise in dislocation and expand outward, until the center reached the height of two floors, the rise and expansion began to stop, all the mechanical connections began to operate again, the expanding rings were pulled closer and combined, and a regular semi-circular dome was presented in front of everyone.

"This ......"

Except for the teachers who had already seen the team, all the students who had never seen this kind of scene had a strange face.

At an angle they couldn't see, the same expansion deformation was actually developing underneath the platform, just in the opposite direction. If at first the platform resembled a huge round cake suspended in the air, now it resembles a large ball suspended with a ring in the middle.

Now the crowd is standing on this ring.

"Really...... I don't know what to say. Elsie was a little speechless, she had seen more wonders and wonders in the past two years than she had learned in her life. If the prosperity of Colonor City is still within her cognition, this arena of Solomon really makes her incomprehensible, is this the strength of the imperial capital of the First Empire of the Plains? No...... It's just a playing field, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Looking at the students present, they were surprised, but they could also calm down, and like Yi Ri, there was no fluctuation in the whole process.

After all the transformations were completed, and the sound of the machinery gradually subsided, a woman with a beautiful face among the competition personnel walked in front of everyone and introduced everyone in a sweet but transparent voice: "Welcome to the venue of the new battle, the island of ukiyo-e!"

......

It wasn't until the crowd was led into the dome that Elsie came to his senses and silently muttered its name: "Ukiyo...... The island is a name with meaning. ”

Feeling the light around her dim, she realized that when she looked up, there was a different scene around her. At first glance, the only feeling is that it is big, solemn, and quiet.

They are walking along the inner wall of a huge ball, and they can see that the space is a walkway around the inner wall, and the outside light cannot be seen inside, and I don't know where the light is projected, and the ball is full of quaint dark yellow, but this light does not make people feel warm, but because of the huge space, it seems a little cold.

Overhead was a huge dome, but there was no light on it, it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything clearly, and I didn't know what it was like above.

Descending a little down the walkway and staircase, Elsie could see the structure below, with a huge circular playing field in the middle, surrounded by a symbolic fence, but she knew that it was the invisible circle barrier that was actually insulating.

Surrounded by stands, stretching upwards in a circle around the arena, the lower half of the whole ball is the spectator stand, which is like a huge Colosseum, and even in some of the good viewing positions of the stands, as well as there are built-in boxes on the inner wall.

Although it was only them walking here now, and the stands were empty, Elsie could imagine the grand scene here when the game began in the afternoon, and it was estimated that it was a multiple-magnified replica of the Temple of Truth. Looking at it this way, looking at the central arena is even more soft, and I don't know how the contestants will feel under the gaze of tens of thousands of people at that time.

"S—it's chilling. Elsie turned her head away from looking down, looking at the expressions of the people around her, and what terrified her was Iri, Cardin's face as he looked at the arena with an expression of anticipation and excitement, which was creepy.

They didn't go to the end, and when they were halfway there, they turned into the back of the stands, and it turned out that there was a lot more of a world inside, and there were different rooms and lounges around the long corridor, but because of the venue, the edges of the corridor rooms were slightly curved, and it looked like it would be easy to get lost if you didn't pay attention.

Everyone here was about to disperse, and the large army of hundreds of people began to disperse, and they were taken to the exclusive lounge of their own academy by the competition personnel, although there were more people this time, they did not have to squeeze the lounge with other academies.

The entrance is a room in the same color as the stadium, dark yellow, the walls and floors have a cold touch, but the inside is very wide, with sofas and furniture, melons and fruits on the table, and even a separate bathroom next to it.

Yi Ri exhaled and said softly, "It's finally more spacious and quiet." ”

Funnie sat down around the table, and now all they could do was wait for the afternoon game to begin.

"How's it going, isn't it spectacular?" asked Dusen as he sat down next to Doro, smiling.

Doro didn't speak, in fact, he was like this, even if he didn't care too much about things he had never seen, which made him look different and calm no matter what he faced.

Dusen flattened his mouth in some frustration.

Elsie found that the teacher they had known first seemed to care about Doro and always wanted to talk to him, but he was relieved to think that Doro was recruited by him.

"There is no guarantee of fairness, but fairness must be guaranteed, so we can't know the opponent in advance this time, and even if we do, we can't guarantee whether the other side is strong but not famous. Funnie suddenly spoke, "So, you all cheer up this time, no matter what the other side looks like, strong or not, you must be in the best shape to fight." ”

Her words seemed to imply a certain mousse.

"Everyone is unknown, just do your best. Also, there will be a lot of people watching the battle this time, including people from various forces, which is also a test for you, so I don't have to worry about anything else. But Melody, although you have good talent, you are a little timid, and you must be brave when the time comes. ”

"Good. Melody replied softly.

"There's nothing else to say, let's rest, we don't know the order of play, maybe you guys will be in this afternoon's game. ”
