At this moment, a huge freighter was sailing on the sea, and more than a dozen armed guards in suits stood on the deck, patrolling back and forth. On the spacious deck, three helicopters are also parked, and several men are undergoing maintenance and adjustments.

In the cabin at the bottom of the freighter, more than 20 staff members sat in front of the computer, tapping the keyboard quickly, and the precision equipment placed around them kept flashing red and green light.

"Target number one in place!"

"Target number two in place!"

"Target number three is in place!"

“......”

As the voices of the staff sounded one after another, a young man in a suit and leather shoes walked quickly to a gentle and elegant middle-aged man and reported: "Mr. Yun, everything is ready. ”

Mr. Yun turned around, walked straight to the big screen hanging on the wall, nodded at the young man, and said, "Let's start." ”

"Yes. ”

After a while, a live picture appeared on the big screen. In the azure waters, an underwater machine equipped with a camera slowly moved forward.

Dozens of seconds later, the bottom of a giant ship clearly appeared in the frame.

When the machine was close to the bottom, the two mechanical arms slowly stretched out under the remote operation of the staff.

"Mr. Yun, all six packages have been installed. ”

"Very well, tell them to withdraw the machine and not let the other party find out. ”

"Understood. After the words fell, the young man asked, "Mr. Yun, when will we start acting?"

"Don't worry, my people haven't arrived yet, just wait. ”

......

After lunch, Ling Chen took a short rest, and then followed Qiu Yong and others to the venue to participate in the rookie competition in the afternoon.

Sitting on the seat, Ling Chen immediately felt a soft gaze cast on him. When he raised his eyes, he saw Zhu Xiaozhu on the other side of the stands looking at him. He raised his lips and smiled, nodding slightly.

At this moment, Shi Su, who was next to Zhu Xiaozhu, seemed to notice the actions of the two of them, looking at Ling Chen with cold eyes, as if a layer of frost was hanging on his face.

Ling Chen touched his nose, turned his head away, and stopped looking at the woman.

Although Shi Su was Zhu Xiaozhu's master, Ling Chen didn't have a good impression of her at all.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the guests at the venue had arrived, and the host Zhou Qi stepped into the ring as usual and hugged his fists at everyone present.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this morning's battle for places is just an appetizer, and the afternoon is the main event. Everyone already knows the prize of this rookie competition, so I won't repeat it and just announce the rules. This year's rookie competition is divided into two rounds, the first round of the competition is the rookie list ranked in the bottom five rookies, plus Ling Chen, who won the quota this morning, a total of six. The winner of the six will compete with the top five rookies on the rookie list for the top three. ”

Hearing this unfair rule, everyone looked at each other with a look of astonishment on their faces.

"Old Zhou, isn't this rule a little unfair? Why don't the top five rookies compete together?" Someone in the stands questioned: "Even if there is a winner among the six of them, after repeated battles, the energy and body will definitely be much worse than before, if he is injured, it will be even more troublesome, how can he compete with the top five rookies in this state?"

"Not bad. Someone immediately chimed in: "I also think it's unfair, the six of them are too much of a loss." ”

In the face of everyone's opposition and questioning, Zhou Qi pressed his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

"Everyone thinks that the rules set by the Tianji Pavilion are unfair, I can understand that. However, Tianji Pavilion has always been fair, and it will never be biased. The reason why Tianji Pavilion made such a decision was also after careful consideration, and it was completely for the sake of those six contestants. ”

"Old Zhou, how do you say this?"

"Since everyone wants to know, I might as well tell the truth. There is a big gap between the strength of the top five and the bottom five of the rookie list, and the rookies in the top five are not weaker than the masters of the dragon list. As a master of the Dragon List, Liu Yunsong was powerless in front of Song Ge. In contrast, the bottom five of the rookie list only have the strength of the Tiger list. With this huge disparity, do you think it's interesting to put them together?"

Seeing that everyone was shocked by his words, Zhou Qi said with a smile: "We also arranged this out of consideration for the safety of all the rookies, of course, I don't rule out the possibility of a dark horse." However, if he is really a dark horse, I believe he can stand out in the competition. In addition to that, I would like to remind you of this. Everyone is a person in the martial arts, the weak eat the strong, and it depends on whose fists are hard. It's brutal, but that's the reality. If you want to be strong, how can you reach the top without going through hardships and ups and downs. ”

After listening to Zhou Qi's deafening words, everyone suddenly fell silent, and no one objected to the rules set by Tianji Pavilion.

The law of the jungle has been unchanged for thousands of years.

If it is really as Zhou Qi said, the difference in strength between the two sides is so big, then the six of them are indeed not qualified to challenge the top five people on the rookie list.

"Alright, everything that needs to be said has been said, and since there is no objection anymore, let's draw lots to determine our respective opponents. After speaking, Zhou Qi waved his hand, and Zhong Yang immediately ran to the ring and handed the bamboo tube containing six bamboo sticks to Zhou Qi's hand.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please come on stage. ”

Ling Chen didn't say a word, and walked into the ring. At the same time, the other five rookies got up from the stands and stepped into the ring one after another, surrounding Zhou Qi, looking at each other who was likely to be their opponents.

What surprised Ling Chen a little was that among the five rookies, there was a young woman with a beautiful face, delicate and delicate, and she looked like she was twenty-one or twelve years old.

Seeing that the six people had arrived, Zhou Qi opened his mouth and said: "There are three sets of the same number on the six bamboo sticks, and the people who draw the same number are a group, let's start." ”

By the time the other five people had all finished drawing, Ling Chen would know who his opponent was without having to smoke.

Shi Tao, a young man of the same age as him, has an ordinary appearance, with a hooked nose, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and two thick lips, looking like a real person.

After looking at the bamboo sticks in the hands of the six people, Zhou Qi stretched out his hand and pointed at the delicate woman, as well as a young man next to him.

"Xiao Wan, Luo Yu, start with the two of you. ”

The two nodded, and immediately stepped down to prepare.

Ling Chen returned to his seat and found that Ye Liangyong had sat behind him at some point.

"Uncle Ye, why are you here?"

"Swapped seats with someone else. ”

"Looking for me?"

"I just asked my friends about the details of those people, so I wanted to come and talk to you so that you can be prepared. ”

"Brother Ye has a heart. Qiu Yong said with a smile: "Sixth brother, know yourself and know your opponent, you will not be defeated in a hundred battles, no matter who your next opponent is, you can't underestimate the enemy, and it's not a bad thing to know more." ”

"I know, big brother. ”
