Li Mochen's timely arrival made his agents Edward Jeffries and Mr. Borg Ferguson really relieved, they were afraid that Li Mochen's identity would not be able to look down on the small money of endorsement fees after the change, and they did not plan to go down the road of martial arts superstars.

Carl Holden also looked slightly relieved after seeing Li Mochen: "I thought you weren't going to come to the competition, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Wildenstein family." ”

The change of heirs of the Wildenstein Group is now spreading throughout America. Many people don't know the truth and make all kinds of speculations, and rumors are flying all over the world.

Some people believe that Li Mochen's performance in recent years has been appreciated by the Willenstein Family Presbyterian Church; others believe that the three Cleo siblings initiated a coup d'état, and after the failure, they were purged from the top of the Wildenstein group; and there is also a legend that Philip I was ill and officially retired to the background, and Consciuli, who was promoted to the top position, finally revealed his true colors and swept away the children born to him and his original partner, and Andre, the only male blood of his and his stepwife, was promoted to the position of the first heir in the sequence in one fell swoop.

Carl was also unaware of the truth, and Dwight was secretive and did not tell him the truth. But the change in the status of both sides is real.

According to the rankings established by certain institutions in the underground world, the overall combat power, financial strength and influence of the Wildenstein family. Ranked between twenty-five and thirty-five in America, at the height of Philip I, he even touched the threshold of the supreme family.

And Li Mochen, as the first heir of this family, can be equated with status and power comparable to the prince of a small country.

"The Crown Prince?"

Li Mochen sneered, "Are you trying to disgust me, Carl?"

Now it's said in the newspapers and on TV. ”

Carl Holden spread his hands: "You are no longer the prince in distress Ah Mo, more people think that your experience is simply a realistic version of the Gray Prince - the men's version of Cinderella." ”

"So what?"

"Now the outside world's perception of you is polarizing, and the children of wealthy families are always not treated by the common people, which is why many famous children are reluctant to join the martial arts world. This makes many people a little disgusted with you, and those who hate you even more. Correspondingly, your female fans are more loyal, especially those from the middle class. In their eyes, you are simply their dream, the ideal lover of their dreams. ”

Karl said with a wry smile: "Our people are going all out to mobilize the media to portray you as a character who was abandoned by the family, but was self-reliant, worked hard, and finally won the approval of the family." However, our opponents are not weaker in terms of media resources. Felton Williams and Greene Adams have been a blessing in disguise, with several times the previous support. People expect them to defeat you, and heroes from the common people will trample you, a famous child, into the mire and deprive you of your pride, which is a popular drama for the public. ”

Li Mochen only exchanged a few words with Carl before he was forced to interrupt. Just because his first game is about to start, his opponent is Andrew, the state runner-up in North Carolina, a player who has obtained a wild card from the tournament committee because of his strength.

In addition to the 80 state titles, the NHSAA National Championship will also give out 96 wildcards to those in each state who are so strong that they fail to qualify for the national competition. The 48 winners will join the 80 state champions in the round of 64.

Li Mochen must defeat this man first, as well as the next round player, before he can meet Felton Williams in the round of 32.

The process of the battle was lackluster, and in the three rounds, Li Mochen defeated the Andrew classmate after a hundred sword pairs, scoring 15 points and taking about 20 minutes and 40 seconds.

Two days later, his next round, just like Andrew, was a 'fatal blow' in a hundred rounds, and he was defeated by him after a total of 300 rounds, which took 19 minutes and 12 seconds.

The opponent's overall strength is a little stronger than Andrew's, but when they play, the mentality is a little impatient, so the time is shorter.

But before and after the game, the stands on both sides were filled with cheers. This made Li Mochen soberly realize how much his status as the first heir to Wildenstein has brought much obstacle to his career as a martial arts superstar.

His brokerage company was able to help him sign the two big endorsement orders of Skywalker Sports Drink Company and Cadila Pharmaceutical Company under such circumstances, which was really difficult for them-

"Don't worry too much about these audiences, Amo, Los Angeles is the West Coast of America after all. And you're a martial arts superstar from the East, and it's no wonder they can look at you, and this is Williams' home field. What you need to care about is the popularity and influence across the country. ”

After the second round, Li Mochen's exclusive agent Borg Ferguson didn't care about the tsunami in the stands: "The current situation is better than we imagined. As for you, your bout is still the highest of any NHSAA national tournament, with more than twice as many viewers as any other martial arts star. And the products of the Nathan Group and Elizabeth Cosmetics have once again exploded into a sales boom, and there are many people who support you. In terms of purchasing power, your fan base crushes those stiffs. ”

"Things are getting better right now, and according to our survey, there are a lot of people who are changing their attitudes towards you, and those are true martial arts fans. ”

It was Carl who said this, and his expression was solemn: "According to the investigation done by our company, it should be related to the fact that you have never used more strength and speed than a magic professional of the same level in the competition, and you have won by skill. This has led to many veteran tournament critics and retired celebrities praising you. I think you have real master-level combat skills, and the swordsmanship you use in the game is very subtle, very practical, and it is a technique that can defeat the strong with the weak. This also boosted your ratings in the second round by 1.5 percent compared to the previous round, and many martial arts fans are paying attention to your sword skills themselves. ”

Li Mochen had known about this situation for a long time.

After these two games, it can be seen from the sales of his copy of "The King of Fury". So far, the five volumes published have all exploded in small waves, and sales have each increased by two to three million copies.

"But then that's the point, you have to beat your opponent in the next round, Felton Williams, beautifully. Otherwise, you'll be the joke of all America. And before that, this Mr. Williams was well prepared. ”

Karl's face was solemn: "There is a legend that this guy has entered the eleventh level and has been promoted to extralegal status. And his overall strength is even enough to confront those seventeen or eighteen-level strong outsiders. So your odds with a few bookmakers are not good, it's 3.27 now, and the bet on you to win a hundred rounds is 70.2, and no one has bet so far. ”
