Chapter 172: Can We Take On an Entire Team Alone?
After Wang Zhixing and the others successfully passed the bone-age test, they were brought to a room to get registered.
The staff gave Wang Zhixing an electronic form. On it was the name of the team, members’ names, and so on.
Qin Chuan had told them about this before they came.
Then, Wang Zhixing, the leader, immediately began to fill in the form.
[Team Name: Immortal Sect]
[Region: Xia country]
[Team Strength: 10]
[Members’ Names: Professor, Evil East, Iron Mask…]
…
All who come here to compete essentially do not use their real names, so Wang Zhixing and the others naturally would not foolishly input their real names.
Since Wang Zhixing used to be a university professor, he used “Professor” in this competition.
Ma Dong was named “Evil East” because his name had the word “Dong[1]” in it.
Wang Jiajun, on the other hand, was often referred to as the Impartial Bureau Chief, so his name for this competition was Iron Mask[2].
…
After Wang Zhixing filled out the form, the staff immediately verified it.
After that, they waited for a few minutes before the staff brought over some electronic wristbands.
“When I call your name, please come here to collect your wristband,” said the staff.
“Okay!” Wang Zhixing nodded and translated what the staff member said to his companions.
“Professor!” The staff called Wang Zhixing’s name.
Wang Zhixing went forward to take his wristband.
“Evil East!”
…
“Iron Mask!”
…
Soon, Wang Zhixing’s group received their wristbands.
Then, the staff gave Wang Zhixing a tablet.
“You should be the person in charge of your team!”
“Yes!” Wang Zhixing nodded.
The staff explained, “This tablet is connected to the network here. So you can enter and check the information of each team and their rankings.
“If you want to obtain more points, you can select teams and challenge them.
“However, as you have just registered, you are not qualified to do that as of yet.
“Right now, you can only get randomly matched by the system. The other function will only be available when your accumulated points reach 1,000 points.
“Every team begins with 10 points. Winning a match will earn you 10 points, and losing means deducting 10 points.
“Once your accumulated points reaches zero, you will be disqualified. ”
Wang Zhixing listened very carefully and asked, “We only get 10 points for winning?”
The staff member replied, “Before the team’s accumulated points reach 1000 points, regardless of victory or defeat, it will be a 10 points system.”
After Wang Zhixing heard this, he could not help but mutter softly, “It seems that it will still be quite difficult to qualify for the martial arts conference.”
When the staff heard this, they couldn’t help but laugh.
Sir, there’s only a month left until the end of the elimination competition.
“In all seriousness, in such a short period of time, reaching the point average is a problem, let alone qualifying for the martial arts conference,” the staff said seriously.
The staff member’s words made sense.
If they wanted to reach 1000 points, they would need to win 100 consecutive rounds in an ideal situation.
For ordinary teams, it was simply a fantasy.
However, they were not ordinary people. It was not a big problem to win a hundred rounds in a row.
Wang Zhixing was most concerned about time.
After all, this was not an individual competition but a team competition. They had to defeat everyone in a team to be considered victorious.
He wondered whether they needed the whole group to fight a team.?Can’t we fight an entire team individually? That way, each of us would only need to fight 10 teams each. This will save us some time.
This method was simple and efficient.
Hence, he asked the staff.
Upon hearing this, the staff member gave Wang Zhixing an extra glance.
“Sir, this idea is indeed feasible, but it needs to be communicated with the opposing team in advance, and an agreement needs to be signed before it can take effect.”
Wang Zhixing’s eyes brightened, and he asked, “Then how do we draft the agreement?”
The staff explained seriously, “Sir, you don’t need to draft the agreement. There is a special option for one person to challenge a team in the competition system.
“After you’ve matched up with a team, you can choose to fight alone.
“Besides, you don’t need the other party’s approval. When the competition begins, your side can just send one person.”
“Oh!” Wang Zhixing nodded. This saves a lot of trouble.
“Then, Sir, what other questions do you have?”
Wang Zhixing thought for a while, then asked, “Then can we begin competing now?”
The staff was stunned for a moment. He had not expected Wang Zhixing’s team to be so anxious.
“Sure.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Before leaving, the staff added,
“Sir, the wristbands you have on right now are equivalent to an identification card. You must not exchange it with others. If you do, your team’s participation rights will be stripped.”
“Thank you!”
Then, Wang Zhixing’s group left for the competition area.
There were five arenas in the competition area. Each arena was about twenty meters long and wide. The audience surrounded them.
At this moment, the competition area was bustling with noise and thunderous applause. Shouts and cheers could be heard from time to time.
There were no empty seats in the audience. Ever since the elimination competition began, many spectators had come.
Of course, the entrance fee was not cheap. Even the cheapest seats cost thousands of yuan. But, most importantly, it was difficult to buy them.
As for those VIP booths, the prices were even more ridiculous. They were in the millions.
In addition, the martial arts conference’s qualifiers were being broadcasted by many countries, and the popularity was beyond imagination.
Previously, there was a time when there were billions of viewers online at the same time. That meant that more than 30% of the world’s viewers were watching.
This data was rather exaggerated.
However, in Xia Country, due to some historical issues, the competition could not be viewed. As a result, people could only use proxies.
…
When Wang Zhixing’s group arrived at the competition area, they saw that people were sparring in the five arenas. There were heated fights in each of them.
But in the eyes of Wang Zhixing and company, the people in the arenas were very weak. They were only slightly stronger than ordinary people.
After all, the elimination competition was about to end. The top 100 teams on the ranking hadn’t changed much. Their place in the martial arts conference had been secured.
Therefore, the teams that came later were generally not very capable. They simply wanted to show their faces to the world through the media.
After all, they could advertise their own dojos or martial arts schools very well with such a huge traffic flow.
…
After watching for a while, Wang Zhixing and company turned around and headed to the preparation area. They planned to first study the rules of the competition before matching up.
The preparation area was specifically provided for the participating teams to rest, and it was divided into 11 levels.
However, there were no rooms here. It was similar to a parking lot. There were frames drawn on the ground, and the participating team would rest within their own frame.
There were a total of 1,000 resting areas on each level.
Wang Zhixing turned on his tablet to check for their resting area.
Since they had come much later, they were arranged to be on the 11th floor.
They took the elevator up.
There weren’t that many people where they were located.
According to the instructions on the tablet, Wang Zhixing and the others quickly found their resting area.
Since they were new here and were dressed differently, they quickly attracted the attention of many people.
