Chapter Twenty-Six: The Opening
The first rays of sunlight in the morning fell on the huge banner raised at the entrance of the college. The words "The 96th Secret Martial Arts Club Competition" were dyed with a dazzling color, dancing in the wind, and far away into the eyes of every guest.
This year, there were a lot more famous families who came to watch the tournament spontaneously than in the past, some of them had their children on the event list, and others were invited by the elder Don King.
Luxury cars of all styles have been speeding into the parking lot, and these transportation tools that combine the latest steam technology with stylish aesthetics can reach speeds of up to 200 kilometers per hour, and the price is also staggering. Horse-drawn carriages were still the popular choice, and in the eyes of the old school, steam and machinery could never represent the aristocratic style.
Don King Sr. is a typical figure of the old school, and although the black crystal mine under his name is the main source of energy for the development of steam technology, this does not affect his rigid dogma in his way of thinking.
For all the old guards, secret martial arts are enough to make them lose their reserve, and Old Tang Jin is naturally no exception. Today, he deliberately changed into a new navy blue dress, carried an ivory-handled cane, and combed his hair shiny, and stood at the gate of the academy to greet every old friend, as if he were the master of the place.
"The dog has learned secret martial arts for many years, and today can be regarded as a small answer sheet. Thank you for coming, thank you very much!" In front of every familiar face, Old Tang Jin had to repeat this passage, and then stretched out his palms that would never stop shaking and shook each other warmly.
The conflict with the Swain family is his own fault, and the captain of the Black Flag Army can take advantage of the situation to suppress others. Now that Big Claude is participating in the martial arts competition in a dignified manner, there are so many celebrities as circumstantial evidence, even if he cripples that kid alive, how can he be hard in the background? Even if he takes some medical expenses, this breath is finally out.
When the people from the Backfire Martial Arts Hall arrived, the smile on Old Tang Jin's face became even more cheerful.
For the rampant backfire warriors, being forced back by the Black Flag Army last night was tantamount to a great shame. Johnny, the secret martial arts teacher of Big Claude, rushed to another branch overnight and invited a general-level powerhouse to suppress the formation, and at this moment he was surrounded by everyone and got out of the car.
"This is Uncle Morosing, with him, any trouble will be solved. Johnny introduced Don King Sr.
Morosing looked like he was of exotic origin, with an eagle nose and deep eyes, narrow knife-like eyebrows pressed against his eye sockets, and the whole person exuded a thick and cold aura. Facing Old Tang Jin's respectful greeting, he nodded loudly and said in a blunt imperial Chinese: "The army can't do it!
Old Don Kim changed color slightly.
Many warriors can't complete the leap from the warrior level to the general level in their lifetime, and the ninth level of the warrior is like a moat, and those who can pass this level are all real elites, and their talent and will are indispensable. After becoming a general, a broader new world will slowly open up in front of you, and the improvement of the strength realm can only be described in the sky and the earth.
Warrior-level powerhouses are often self-serving characters, with conceited personalities and doing their own thing. Except for the Secret Martial Alliance, no organization will be taken into account. Moro Xing was about to kill when he opened his mouth, which made Old Don King worried. If the situation is under control, it is what you want. If it gets out of control, these warriors pat their butts and leave, and they will be in big trouble......
Old Donnie was hesitating how to speak tactfully, but Johnny saw his concerns and said in a low voice: "Don't worry! Although Uncle Shi has a bad temper, he cherishes talents the most, your son's talent in martial arts is so outstanding, there are some things he will consider for juniors." ”
"Thank you. Downey Sr. breathed a sigh of relief.
"What about the people from the Panshan Martial Arts Pavilion?" Mo Luoxing raised his eyes and looked arrogant, "Zhilu said that I came, so they didn't dare to come?"
The martial artists of the Backfire Martial Arts Hall laughed and followed him to the campus.
The open-air stage has been built overnight, with stepped auditorium seats in four directions, and the occupancy rate has reached nearly half. As the flow of people continued to pour in, the atmosphere began to become noisy. It wasn't until shortly before the opening that the long-overdue Iwayama Takeshi finally appeared.
Moro Star came to his senses, and his falcon-like gaze turned, and he immediately locked on an old man at the head.
Bud has always walked on a rampage, no different from a humanoid Tyrannosaurus. At this moment, he was carefully holding the old man, with a smile like a schoolboy on his face.
"Teacher Merkel, I am absolutely not bragging! If it weren't for the fact that your apprentice is so good, how dare I invite your old man all the way here?
It was already quite hot on a June morning, and the old man named Merkel was wearing only short-sleeved shorts, revealing his thin limbs and wrinkled skin, as if the slightest wind could blow it down. He looked impatient at Bud's support, rolled his eyes, pushed the other man away, and walked slowly away.
"Two or three kittens, two or three kittens...... Merkel squinted at the backfire crowd, and there were words in her mouth. It seems that because of the faintness of his old eyes, he only saw Moro Star at the last time, and when he touched the other party's gaze, it was like a spark splashing. "Tsk, second-level general...... I didn't expect these guys to be able to make a lot of money!"
The people of the two martial arts halls sat on the east and west sides of the stands respectively, and some of the students had already recognized the famous martial artists, and the low commotion came and went. Representatives of several small local martial arts halls also sat in the guest seats, apparently to explore the water.
When Kivi's exclusive cheerleading squad began to warm up, Zoro arrived at the scene in casual clothes. Old Don King saw him from afar, and when he saw that the young captain was not wearing a uniform, he immediately understood that today he was not representing a camp, but an individual.
"Do you want to feel the disappointment for yourself......" Old Don Jin smiled silently and looked away.
Little Claude sat next to him uncomfortably, and suddenly his face changed: "Dad, that poor ghost is here too!"
As the family members of the specially invited contestants, the Swain family had already changed into the cleanest and most decent clothes, sitting in the corner of the stands, and even Skoc's new girlfriend came with them. After seeing Zoro, Sven didn't dare to admit it at first, and after watching it for a long time, he walked over with his wife and greeted him gratefully: "You are here too? Thank you so much yesterday!"
"Hello, I'm here to see Relo. Friends help each other, don't be too polite!" Zoro stood up politely and smiled.
As the vice president of the academy's board of trustees announced the start of the match, a landslide and tsunami of cheers erupted from the stands.
As an annual drama, the order of each competition is very particular. The first show must be extremely exciting to attract guests. The last game was the finale, and it had to explode the whole audience.
Kivi ranked herself in the first game, and Lei Luo ranked in the last game. This ranking shocked the other players of Ryoma Martial Arts, who didn't understand what she was thinking about.
"Lei Luo is the strongest of our Ryoma. Chivi's explanation was simple.
Everyone looked at each other, still unable to believe that he had grown to the point of surpassing Chivi.
In the first game of Qiwei vs. President Tianjiao, the winner was decided in just ten minutes. Qi Wei was worthy of the name of the queen of the East, and forced the opponent to open the door with a dazzling set of combination techniques, and then the middle palace went straight and slapped his palm on his chest.
The sound of color was thunderous, and the "Queen's Guard" waved flower balls, and everyone was excited.
In the second game, the players sent by Ryoma were defeated.
In the third game, the two sides changed players again. It was the turn of the Tianjiao members who were about to board the stage, but they were pulled by Big Claude.
Big Claude jumped on the stage, his eyes swept the audience like electricity, and said coldly: "There is no need to change it so troublesomely, from now on, I will challenge all the players of Ryoma alone, you can go together!"
Just five minutes later, Lei Luo, who was lying in the lounge on his back, received a notice of his appearance.
He is already the last person in the Ryoma Fang.
