Chapter 629: Winning without Fighting
Rosewood City, Jianmu Arena.
boom!
boom!
boom!
The lights of the venue that accommodated tens of thousands of people dimmed instantly, and dazzling fireworks bloomed over the venue, revealing the gleaming logo of the Beast Taming Association, announcing that the national competition was about to begin.
Chen Wei and his teammates were sitting backstage, looking at the huge audience on the big screen, with a hint of nervousness and anticipation in their eyes.
It was the first time to participate in such a grand event. Yi Qing followed the stress-relieving method taught by her senior sister and nervously muttered in her heart, "Don't be afraid, these heads are all carrots, they are all carrots..."
Perhaps because she was too nervous, Yi Qing accidentally said it, making everyone laugh.
On the other side, there were gathered Jinhua, Chihuang, Liushui, Genshan, Leiming, Chuixue, Tenglong... Students from major beast-controlling universities all looked at the area occupied by the Rosewood University team with solemn expressions.
Everyone knows that Rosewood University has produced an unprecedented king of beast masters on campus, but now he starts laughing wildly before the competition, as if the championship is already within his grasp, and he is not taking everyone seriously.
However, the only unconvinced participating teams were those from the top five colleges. The teams from the eight major colleges and other first-class beast-controlling universities all set their sights on their competitors.
There is no way, the top five rankings in the competition will definitely be occupied by Donghua's top five colleges. If they can squeeze out of the top eight colleges, they will already be a dark horse!
Not to mention the complicated emotions of the participating teams, the audience in the arena watched the wonderful videos of previous competitions on the big screen until the screen completely darkened and the countdown numbers appeared.
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
The enthusiastic audience followed the numbers on the screen and waved the cheering sticks in their hands, and cameras full of technology around them recorded this exciting scene.
"Welcome to the live broadcast of the 1028th National Beast Control Competition. I am the host and referee Han Xue."
"In this competition, the teams of all major beast-controlling universities have undergone personnel reorganization and replacement. This year's most popular Rosewood school team has replaced last year's player Han Wuguang. It is an unprecedented selection of freshman students who are also the youngest king-controllers in Donghua. Beast master Chen Wei serves as the captain and aims directly at the championship!”
"But there is only one championship throne at the top. It remains to be seen which team will be able to ascend the throne and be crowned the king!"
As the vice-president of the Rosewood City Beast Taming Association, Han Xue's introduction at the opening ceremony was naturally biased toward the home team. Coupled with his beautiful appearance and strong strength, he instantly attracted a lot of attention.
The next second, promotional images for each participating team appeared on the big screen as usual.
"The first one to enter is the Genshan University team that won fifth place in last year's National Beast Control Competition." Han Xue introduced.
When the light focused on Rong Ziang, who was wearing a school uniform and had bulging muscles all over his body, firm words sounded from the screen behind them.
"Jinhua University performed brilliantly last year, but this year we firmly believe that we can break through many obstacles and win the championship."
Then the lights flashed, and seven tall and elegant beauties walked onto the stage.
"No one can change the ambition of the water to flow into the sea, and the same goes for the champion." The big screen behind Ryusui University showed an animation of the stormy waves at this moment.
Then the scene changed, as a phoenix sounded, and Huang Miaotong, the chief of Chihuang University, led the team to the front.
"Glory is like a phoenix rising from the ashes, and the honor of the championship is right in front of us."
At this time, seeing the assistant director starting to wave, Chen Wei nodded slightly and slowly walked onto the stage with the nervous team members.
Sure enough, the next thing he heard was his own voice on the big screen.
"I will prove who is the real number one genius in this National Beast Mastering Association competition."
"Hey guys, everyone's trash talk is so subtle. Is it too crazy for me to have a flash of inspiration in the background and learn the famous sayings of the factory director?"
Chen Wei blinked and soon noticed the looks of wonder and envy around him.
The three teams facing him from a distance even showed solemn expressions.
The number of barrages on the online live broadcast platform also soared to 9999+ at this moment, and many viewers began to talk about it.
Crazy on the first day?
It's true, but Chen Wei's identity as a king beast master gives him enough confidence to say this.
After all, he is currently the most popular and strongest player on the field to win the championship.
It is not groundless that all people below the king level are ants.
Next, the Jinhua University team, which has won nine consecutive championships, took the stage as the finale. Shu Zhize, who was walking in front with confidence, attracted Chen Wei's attention.
"Interesting. It seems that this national beast control competition will not be too boring." Chen Wei put his hands in his pockets and silently listened to the deafening cheers in the venue.
There were many teams participating in this competition, but only the five major school teams were able to take the stage and be personally introduced by the host.
In order to avoid the best of the best, the five major school teams will be automatically divided into five groups for intra-group round-robin competition. The top three teams in the group can enter the top 16.
As for the last missing seat in the top 16, it will be obtained by the team from the lower bracket.
Soon, under the draw of the host, all participating teams were successfully divided into groups.
The lottery drawn by Rosewood University was on the second day. Chen Wei left the main venue after taking a look at the game schedule.
"Don't you want to watch the Genshan University game?" Yu Xiumin asked curiously.
"No need. Among all the participating teams, only Jinhua University and Chihuang University are worth watching. There will be a game tomorrow. Let's go to bed early tonight." Chen Wei shook his head.
...
At nine o'clock the next morning, the Jianmu Arena branch venue [Forest Zone] was crowded with people and the seats were full.
"There are so many spectators today!" Yu Xianglu wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"This is the treatment of the home court." Wu Sixi's eyes were full of envy.
If possible, she would also like to be led by the president like Xiumin, but unfortunately her friendship with the president was too shallow to catch this rocket.
"Tsk tsk tsk, let Hanyang University play against Zidan University, I can't think of how the former will win." Yu Yang licked his lips, feeling that the next game was a crushing game.
"I don't know what to say except cruel." Wu Yaojin said thoughtfully: "But I heard that the president is from Hanyang Province, and he may let Hanyang University go a little."
Under the expectation of many spectators, Chen Wei led the team members to the stadium slowly.
In contrast, Hanyang University captain Chen Lixuan's palms were sweating, staring blankly at the opponent he was about to face, the top talent who was known to everyone in Hanyang Province!
"How to play this?"
Chen Lixuan swallowed his saliva and glanced at his teammates behind him.
The teammates nodded one after another, indicating that I have already voted, you can do whatever you want.
Looking at these six votes, Chen Lixuan decisively raised his right hand and surrendered.
"Referee, we admit defeat!" (End of this chapter)
