Chapter 208: The National Race Begins
"Are you looking at them? Feeling threatened? ”
Just when Su Chen's brows were tightly knit and his face was solemn, Jun Mingyue's voice finally brought him back to his senses: "Do you know them?" ”
"The people of Changsheng Academy in Shangjing!" Jun Mingyue's face was indifferent.
"Changsheng Academy?" Su Chen was stunned.
Jun Mingyue is sure she didn't say anything wrong?
Academy, what an ancient name! For a moment, it feels like you've traveled through time and space.
High school students Yuan Soul Master Competition, what did the people from the academy run out of?
"The top private middle school here in Beijing. Jointly organized by several Maisons. It's been hundreds of years. In the past ten years, he has not fallen out of the quarterfinals of the national competition. Three of them reached the semi-finals and one year reached the finals! ”
Seemingly aware of the doubts in Su Chen's heart, Jun Mingyue explained.
"It's so strong!"
At that moment, Su Chen only felt that his heartbeat stopped.
Xia Guoyuan Spirit Master Competition, bringing together all parties to the sky.
Can make it to the quarterfinals for 10 years in a row? What a concept!
It's super strong.
How many provincial teams have never made it to the quarterfinals! Just like the representative team of Nanling Province, although there are two or three teams participating in the national competition all year round, not to mention the top eight, even the top 16 have never reached the top 16.
The quarterfinals are already unimaginable achievements for Nanling Province.
And the final?
It's incredibly far away!
"This year, they are the favourites. The call is higher than what you saw before at Wanyang Middle School in Gangneung Province. Even stronger than in previous years. It is widely believed that they will be able to secure a very high seeding spot! Jun Mingyue added.
"These people ......," Su Chen asked after a moment of silence.
"The three main forces are all people on the Hidden Dragon List, by the way, they are all in the top 50 of the Hidden Dragon List. The worst one, ranked forty-eight on the Hidden Dragon List, is just a little worse than you. The other two, one is nineteenth on the dragon list, and one is sixth on the dragon list! There are three substitutes, one of whom is seventy-six on the Hidden Dragon List, and the other two are also qualified to compete for the Hidden Dragon List! ”
Jun Mingyue said in a deep voice.
Rumble!
At that moment, Su Chen's mind exploded.
What kind of youkai team is this?
Is the strong team in Beijing so crazy?
There are only 100 people on the Hidden Dragon List, and a team from Changsheng Academy occupies four places!
According to Su Chen's understanding, just in Beijing, there are eight teams participating in the national competition, right?
None of them are underdogs. Even in addition to Changsheng Academy, there are two teams that are perennial favorites to win the championship!
In this way, how many places do these teams occupy on the Hidden Dragon List?
Sure enough, there are talents in Beijing!
Coupled with Mohai City, the overlord that is enough to compete with Shangjing, they also have seven teams to participate, and the strong ones are like clouds.
There are 100 people on the Qianlong list, which seems to be a lot.
However, in this way, how many places will be occupied by Shangjing and Mohai alone.
There are also traditional strong provinces of Gangneung, Jinan and Quang Giang......
In this way, how many provinces do not even have a person on the hidden dragon list?
No wonder he was on the Qianlong list, Nanling Province reacted so much, and Yang Dafu and others were so excited.
Sure enough, in this world, the gap between the rich and the poor in resources has reached an unimaginable level.
"If you meet them in the national competition......"
Looking at Su Chen, who was shocked, a trace of complexity flashed on Jun Mingyue's face.
When she went to Yangang City, what she wanted to do, Jun Mingyue knew very well.
She's not crazy, so she knows she can't do it!
The main purpose of leaving Shangjing is just to make yourself quiet and to escape.
Su Chen's appearance was already an unexpected joy, but she had a little more expectation for the national competition.
But that's just an expectation.
Really ran into a team like Changsheng Academy? No play!
The reality is so cruel.
"If I run into them, I'll try to defeat them!"
However, just when Jun Mingyue was secretly sighing in her heart, Su Chen did suddenly have a smile on the corner of his mouth.
National competition? I didn't come here to go through the motions.
Su Chen knew that the expectation in the hearts of Yang Dafu and others was that Tenglong Middle School could pass the preliminary round and enter the semi-finals. That's already a success.
However, how could Su Chen be satisfied with such a result?
Nearly 200 teams participated in the national competition, and 128 teams were selected in the semi-finals, and then entered the knockout round!
Hit the top one hundred and twenty-eight?
It's better not to participate in the national competition.
Now that he is here, Su Chen has only one goal - the champion!
He wants to see what strength Changsheng Academy has. Those top celestial pride, how terrifying.
At that moment, Su Chen's eyes erupted with scorching battle intent.
"You ......"
Feeling Su Chen's changes, Jun Mingyue showed a hint of surprise.
"I've seen Jun Yuanwu senior!" A smile appeared at the corner of Su Chen's mouth: "I have also transferred to the Mixed Yuan Secret Classic!" ”
"He, told you?" Jun Mingyue was stunned for a moment, her face complicated.
"yes!"
Su Chen's expression was firm: "So, I have to do it, don't I?" Otherwise, it will be a great disappointment to your kindness! ”
When the words fell, he got up and stretched, put aside the thoughts in his heart, and walked towards Yang Dafu and the others who had already checked in.
Whatever it takes, it's stormy.
Since it is here, in the midst of this storm, there is a piece of light.
Isn't that enough?
Looking at Su Chen's back, I don't know why, at that moment, Jun Mingyue felt the transformation of this young man.
It was an indescribable feeling.
It seems that his back has become taller?
Faintly, there is an indomitable self-confidence!
After a long silence, a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth, and gradually bloomed.
"Champion? How dare you think! If people knew about you, they would say you were crazy, right? But what if it can really go crazy with you? ”
It seems that something has been decided, and the original coldness on Jun Mingyue's face is fading.
's already alluring face makes people who don't know how many people pay attention to her see God.
……
There was a faint smell of gunpowder in the air in Shangjing.
The national competition is imminent, which injects a touch of tension into the whole city.
Three days flew by.
In the past few days, Su Chen has been in the hotel, except for eating, he almost does not leave home.
Rao was like this, and he still felt a deep malice.
Every time he appears, he can attract unkind eyes.
Among them, many people are famous Tianjiao.
The family killer, this title, I don't know when, has also spread.
This caused Su Chen a deep trouble.
So much so that Jin Ye and the others suffered unjustified disasters.
Fortunately, such a torturous day is not too long.
Early morning.
The Shangjing Gymnasium, which is less than a kilometer away from the Xinwu Hotel, is full of people.
In the square, there was a surge of people. On the periphery, groups of heavily armed soldiers of the City Patrol Division patrolled back and forth.
One by one, the teams passed through strict layers of security checks, and under the guidance of the staff, they entered the empty gymnasium.
In the center of the gymnasium, a huge stage has been erected, and the figures standing around the stage give people a solemn feeling.
"Boss Su, I'm a little nervous! How are you? ”
Facing Tianjiao from all directions and the scene in front of him, Rao is Jin Ye rarely showed a trace of restraint.
"It looks serious! I don't know where our preliminary round will be set this time! Li Hanyi's face showed a hint of worry and curiosity.
"Last year, those people seemed to have been sent to the No. 67 restricted area in Ningchuan Province for assessment. Let's hope we don't get sent that far this year! ”
"Yes! Ningchuan Province is more than 3,000 kilometers away from Shangjing! Traveling back and forth for nearly 7,000 kilometers is simply torturous! ”
As Li Hanyi's words fell, Tao Qianqian, Lin Yi and others couldn't help but talk.
The most direct way to test the team's combat effectiveness in the preliminary round of the national competition every year is to enter the forbidden area and conduct a combat trial!
Just for the sake of fairness, the places of trials that are visited every year are almost never repeated! At the very least, there will be no repetition in the Land of Trials in three years.
So, what about this year?
Thinking of this, Rao is Su Chen had a little more expectation.
In the midst of everyone's discussions, several figures appeared on the stage in the center of the gymnasium, which quieted everyone down.
"Someone from the Ministry of Education is here!" Su Chen's face was straight.
Among them, he saw a familiar figure.
Isn't it Zuo Qingyu, Vice Minister of Education who met in Nanling Province some time ago?
And the middle-aged figure standing in the center, if nothing else, should be the Minister of Education, right?
But seeing him standing on the stage, he glanced at the roar of the people gathered here, and slowly spoke: "The national final of the One Hundred and Six Realm Yuan Spirit Master Competition is officially opened!" ”
Without superfluous nonsense, the opening was announced directly.
Rumble!
Immediately thunderous applause!
The One Hundred and Sixth Realm Primordial Spirit Master Competition?
To be exact, it should be one hundred and two realms. Because the previous four editions of the competition were not nationally participating.
However, it is understandable that the Ministry of Education said so!
"Now, I announce the destination and mission of this preliminary round!"
As everyone's applause fell, the middle-aged figure spoke again.
The crowd listened with their ears pricked up.
"In the preliminary round of this national competition, the destination is the No. 6 forbidden area!"
Without waiting for everyone to stir, Zuo Qingyu, who was standing beside the man, took a step forward: "Announce the task below!" This time, the No. 6 forbidden area assessment items are divided into three. First of all, once you're in the restricted area, you'll need to find your supplies according to the map that has been handed out to you! Within three days, if you find a supply point and have complete personnel, you are considered qualified! Supplies will not be available and will be eliminated.
Secondly, among the supplies obtained, there will be a quest item, and you will have to escort the quest item to the required outpost station within three days, where you will receive the quest request! Those who fail to meet the requirements will be eliminated.
After completing the second mission, you will be able to go to the rendezvous point to claim the third mission!
Complete three stages and missions to advance to the semi-finals and compete for the final championship!
Here, I would like to remind you to hurry up and complete each stage as quickly as possible. All of this will be counted in the final points assessment to determine the eight seeded teams in this competition! ”
As Zuo Qingyu's voice fell, the staff on the side quickly distributed maps and equipment to each team leader.
"Remember, each of you has an Eagle Eye Detector on top of your equipment! The detector shall not be removed without permission, otherwise, it will be regarded as a violation and will be eliminated. In addition to this, each team will be equipped with a distress flare gun. In case of irresistible danger, a signal can be transmitted, and someone will go to the rescue. Of course, if this is the case, it also means that you automatically give up the chance to enter the semi-finals! Zuo Qingyu continued to add.
"Now, you have an hour to prepare. After an hour, depart for Exclusion Zone 6! ”
As Zuo Qingyu's voice fell, another silver-haired old man on the stage slowly announced.
At that moment, the air became tense, and the entire gymnasium fell into an uproar.
