Sima Tingting has been very busy recently, and the local team "Blade Team" in Yizhou City has achieved quite poor results in the A-level League this year, and even the local home games have had a situation where the audience is dissatisfied. In order to cheer up the team in her city, at the suggestion of the director, Sima Tingting conducted a follow-up interview with the "Blade Team", from the usual training of the team members to the post-war summary after the game, from which the shining points of the "Blade Team" were discovered and reported, so as to restore the confidence of Yizhou fans in their team.

However, the effect of this is minimal, and Sima Tingting also knows very well that if you really want to restore everyone's confidence, you still have to rely on the team's results.

From the beginning of the league, the "Blade Team" has been defeated repeatedly, from the beginning of the fans angrily besieging the club, one game after another, the current fans have given up a little, whenever Sima Tingting photographed the fans mourning their misfortune and angry expressions, she felt sad for a while, is Yizhou City destined not to have an A-level team?

In the last home game before the "Blade Team", the fans in Yizhou City have already applauded, every time the opponent knocks down a Blade player, the fans are applauding and applauding, and some fans bring a few big drums, making the gongs and drums noisy. Whenever she sees this kind of scene, Sima Tingting can't help but want to cry, "Love is hatred in the depths!" "That's what these love-hate fans want to tell the Blades.

Sima Tingting blinked her slightly moist eyes and looked down at a list in her hand. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she saw a name she was familiar with, "Hanlong Clan".

Since the last time she looked for Zhou Kai unsuccessfully, she began to follow up and interview the "Blade Team", when she learned that the "Hanlong Team" was successfully shortlisted, she originally wanted to give Zhou Kai a phone call to congratulate, but because she was too busy at the time, she later forgot about it, and it was not until now that she saw the "Hanlong Team" again, she remembered it.

She sat in the OB car, constantly switching cameras, and finally, she saw the "Hanlong team" that was ready to go...

The Taoyuan WG Sports Arena is not very large, and among the dozen or so sports centers around Yizhou City, it can only rank at the middle and upper level, and it can accommodate only 80,000 spectators. The Taoyuan Athletic Center was chosen as one of the three venues for this year's Extreme Challenge because it was built in just two months.

This is also one of the criteria for the selection of venues for the "Extreme Challenge", which must not have been played before, in order to eliminate cheating as much as possible. The biennial "Extreme Challenge" attracts the attention of many fans, and generally three months before the start of the competition, the host center will select suitable competition venues from all over the country, and it will not be until the first three days of the competition that the final decision will be made on which venue, and once decided, the competition venue will also be closed until the day of the competition.

The size of the grandstand in the arena center is generally not required, because this is an unconventional event, seven consecutive days of competition, and few spectators stick to it. Of course, there are a very small number of fanatical fans who will bring their own tents and food, and they will stay in the stands for seven days for the game to go, but there are very few such people.

The game is mainly broadcast by online media, and most people can watch the game at home, so these seven days are almost a holiday for fans across the country.

Another criterion for the selection of the venue is that the playing field must be a mountain with dense forests. The requirements for the area are not very strict, if the area is large, you can have more participating teams, if the area is small, you can have fewer teams, these can be flexibly mastered.

As for the registration of participating teams, there are also conditions, all A-level teams can receive invitations, and B-level teams need to sign up on their own, and they must be B-level teams that have entered the "death knockout" at the end of the year to be eligible. After all, there are too many B-level teams in the country, and if there is no limit to the level, then this event will become a farce.

In fact, the first three editions of the "Extreme Challenge" were not allowed to participate in the B-tier teams, and the time of the tournament was not the same as it is now, and it was held during the break of the A-League League. There were many teams participating in the first edition, but the number of participating teams in the second and third editions dropped sharply. Later, after investigation, I learned that because of the seven-day game, it is easy to expose a team's weaknesses and strengths, and be caught and used by competitors, thus affecting the results in the league. So especially those teams that are fighting for one or two places, or are struggling for relegation, don't participate in this kind of competition at all after that.

As a result, the organizers began to relax the conditions in the fourth edition, allowing B-tier teams to participate, and in order to facilitate the selection of B-tier teams, the tournament was also changed to after the B-tier teams' "Death Elimination" finalist selection was completed.

And those A-level teams that are in the league also have some who come to participate for the high prize money of this challenge, but most of these are in the middle of the league, and they are all teams that have no hope of finishing in the top three and are not in danger of relegation. Just like this year, there were a total of 57 teams registered, of which 13 were A-level teams from four theaters.

It is the first time that Yizhou City has held such a large-scale national event, and coupled with the disappointment of Yizhou fans with the "Blade Team", this challenge has received an unprecedented response from Yizhou fans.

Although you can see the live broadcast when you turn on the TV at home, most fans still like the atmosphere of the scene, so early this morning, the Taoyuan Athletic Center was also crowded.

Although there is no ticket for this game, there is a limit on the number of people, and once the number of people is full, the number of people will be controlled according to the principle of one out and one in. There is only one kind of person who can come and go at any time, and that is media reporters.

If it weren't for the need for ID verification, perhaps the "press card" would be the most sought-after thing during this time.

When Sima Tingting entered the stadium broadcast room, the entire stands were already full, most of the audience were talking about the upcoming game, and the entire arena was like a hornet's nest, buzzing non-stop.

Most of the team names are not very familiar to Yizhou fans, as the vast majority are A or B teams from the other three war zones. This time, there are a total of fifteen teams in the western theater to participate, and there are only two A-level teams, one is the "Chongqing Heavenly Demon Team" that has just been successfully upgraded this year, and the other is the "Yunnan Lishui Team", and among the remaining thirteen teams, only the "Hanlong Team" and "Pearl Team" are teams from Sichuan, and the "Hanlong Team" is a local team in Yizhou. And this time, in the distribution of the field, the "Hanlong Team" was assigned to the Taoyuan Division.

Therefore, when the host read "Hanlong Team", the stands of the entire Taoyuan Athletic Center erupted in deafening cheers.

Except in the underground arena, Zhou Kai has not felt such a strong atmosphere for a long time, and the other Hanlong players are even more unbearable, and the game has not yet started. Many people were already red with excitement, and some were dancing excitedly, as if they were now champions and were being congratulated by the fans.

Zhou Kai called the names of several team members one after another, and gradually made the team members sober up. Looking at the fanatical fans around him who kept chanting the name of "Hanlong Clan", Zhou Kai was a little worried after being excited, and he remembered what Chen Zhengjian had told them before.

"It doesn't matter if you win or lose this game, the reason I let you play is because I want you to know something about other teams, especially those A-tier teams, you are participating to learn from experience, we didn't want you to get a place, and we didn't need you to get a place. Therefore, in the game, don't take risks, everything is about the safety of the players, the 'death knockout' at the end of the year is the game you need to do your best, today's game is just a learning opportunity. ”

Zhou Kai knew very well why Chen Zhengjian said this, and he never thought that he could win a ranking in this level of competition, after all, the focus of the team now is to rush to the A level.

But when he stood at the starting point, when he looked at the people who shouted "Come on!" He was a little worried. No one is blind, whether they are trying their best or not, a discerning person can see at a glance. In front of these fanatical fans, if it is because of inferior skills, they may be able to forgive you, but if it is for other reasons and you are unwilling to fight with all your might, then what will be the reaction of these fans, Zhou Kai dare not think about it anymore.

Looking at the crowd in the stands and listening to the thunderous cheers, Zhou Kai felt like a stone in his heart, sinking more and more......
