Chapter 174: The Highly Anticipated Match
In the audience.
“Look at the screen,” someone shouted.
“What’s wrong with the screen?”
“It’s a team from Xia Country.”
“Xia Country?”
Upon hearing this, everyone craned their necks in anticipation.
[Arena 3, Immortal Sect (Xia Country) VS Peak Giant (Nuscheka)]
“It really is the Xia Country’s team. This is really sudden, but it’s a good surprise.”
“I got my ticket’s worth this time.”
“I thought that all the martial artists from Xia Country were huddling up at home! This is quite surprising.”
“Speaking of which, can the Xia Country’s team win this match?”
“No sh*t, they definitely won’t lose,” someone said with certainty.
Everyone was confused.
“Why?”
“Think about it. If Xia Country had enough guts to participate, they must be quite powerful. Otherwise, they will become a joke.”
“Also, according to the rules of the competition, teams who have yet to accumulate 1000 points will be matched up by the system.
“The competition has been going on for so long. The teams that don’t have 1000 points yet are all very weak. They won’t be able to defeat the team from Xia Country.
“And now, the competition is about to end. Xia Country’s team won’t be able to get 1000 accumulated points.
“Think about it, in a match-up system, will they possibly lose?”
After this person’s analysis, everyone came to a realization.
“These Xia Country people are really cunning. Is there no chance of winning then?”
Many people had grit their teeth, desperately hoping that Xia country’s team would lose.
“It seems very unlikely at the moment, but it’s not impossible. We can wait and see.”
“Actually, the organizers can manipulate the match-up secretly. I think they will have a way.”
“That’s all we can do now.”
The audience was in fervent discussion.
On the other side, all the teams in the preparation area had also received the news that Xia Country’s team had come to participate in the competition. They were equally excited.
Most of them had guessed that the Xia Country team was not weak. Since it was nearing the end of the competition, they probably wouldn’t lose.
Hence, teams with more than 1,000 points were unable to fight with Xia Country’s team. They were really agitated.
They really wanted to trample on Xia Country’s team, but due to the competition rules, they had no choice but to only watch.
However, someone quickly proposed an idea.
“We can fake the results.”
“For teams like us that are unable to enter the top 100, we can purposely lose the competition and reduce our accumulated points to below 1000 points. This way, we will have a chance to fight with Xia Country’s team.”
When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up. This was indeed a good idea.
“But according to the rules of the competition, we’ll be stripped of our right to compete if we do that. Will that work?”
“Why don’t we make it more realistic? They definitely won’t be able to tell.”
“That’s fine. But if we lose a lot of points, the organizers will probably suspect us too!”
Everyone fell silent.
There was indeed something wrong with this situation.
“No problem with that.”
At this moment, a young man in a suit walked over.
He was a staff member of the elimination competition.
Everyone was surprised to see him.
Did he hear everything?
Tss! We’re done for then.
The staff member looked at everyone and grinned.
“The higher-ups place great importance on this team from Xia Country. At this stage, teams with less than 1000 accumulated points are really too weak. There’s nothing interesting about their fight with Xia Country’s team.
“Thus, if you wish to reduce your points to fight them, we would be more than happy to see that happen.”
Everyone understood.
“So we?can?fake results?”
“Yes, but it shouldn’t be too fake. After all, we are broadcasting live. If it’s too fake, it will affect the viewership ratings.”
“Understood. We’ll definitely do well.”
“Then I’ll look forward to everyone’s performance!”
The staff member laughed heartily and walked away.
…
Arena 3.
It was undoubtedly the most eye-catching area.
For this match, the organizers had specially set up a commentary platform and quickly created a promotional video.
The viewership ratings had almost tripled before the game even started.
Time ticked by.
The eleventh level of the preparation area was bustling with noise and excitement, even more so than the audience.
In such a noisy environment, Wang Zhixing and the others were sitting cross-legged on the ground, their minds calm and unaffected by the outside world.
After a while.
Wang Zhixing opened his eyes and looked at the time on his wristband. He indifferently said, “It’s almost time.”
The team members opened their eyes and walked towards the elevator.
Those on the same level quickly followed.
…
At this moment, the competition area was bursting. All the media outlets were fighting to get a good shot. In the end, the organizers divided the area and set the price. The highest bidder would get the area.
Although the good areas were expensive, the media did not feel the pinch at all.
They knew that if the broadcast was good, they would be able to earn back their spendings in the profits.
Since the media were going all out, they could only draw lots.
They just had to draw the area and pay the corresponding amount of money.
Drawing lots depended on luck. If one managed to grab a good spot, he would be happy. If one didn’t, he could only blame their luck.
“Look, Xia Country’s team is here.” The audience in the seats spotted Wang Zhixing’s group.
In an instant, the entire arena was filled with cheers—like a tempestuous storm, the atmosphere reached its peak.
Wang Zhixing’s group remained calm.
Just like that, they had arrived at arena 3.
Presently, there were still two minutes to go until the start of the match.
There was a waiting area below the ring.
After they arrived, all the cameras were focused on them.
For a time, their figures appeared in the media all over the world.
They were dressed in white robes with mysterious masks and carried an immortal aura. In an instant, they attracted countless fans, causing thousands of young girls to be infatuated with them.
The girls were especially curious about the faces behind those masks.
They must be very handsome!
At this moment, people began to enter the VIP rooms.
With the elimination competition drawing to an end, there wasn’t much to see, so no one would pay an astronomical price to come to the VIP rooms.
But since Wang Zhixing and company were from Xia country, the situation was different.
The organizers released the news immediately. The response was resounding. In the blink of an eye, the VIP rooms were sold out.
Some super-rich people who did not manage to get the tickets went straight to the organizers, expressing their willingness to pay more and hoping to be able to go through the back door.
Since there was money to be made, the organizers naturally wouldn’t reject them.
All of a sudden, all the tycoons rushed over in the most advanced private jets—some arriving in less than half an hour.
There were three people sitting in one of the VIP rooms.
One of them looked like an uncle. He had narrowed eyes and appeared very honest.
However, his physique was brawny. He was almost three meters tall. From afar, he looked like an iron tower, and the muscles on his body looked like they were about to explode.
The other person was an aloof young man with two katanas slung on his waist. His eyes were as deep and sharp as swords. It was almost as if they could cut through the void.
The remaining person was completely hidden beneath a black robe, making it so that no one could see his exact appearance. He seemed particularly mysterious.
These three people were the team from the Yun Country.
Until now, they had maintained an all-win record.
The most important thing was that there was only one person who had taken action. No team could force them to send the remaining two people into the ring.
“Yo, the match started,” the uncle with a pair of squinted eyes suddenly said.
