Chapter 25: The Hope of Blue Star >

rs, each holding a long spear, stood in a straight line, orderly and well-behaved. 。Though Xu Jingming's skills might have diminished after retirement, his past achievements still earned him the resp...Those remaining on the field, their states of mind varied greatly. 。

Like Tyano Xilai, who was smiling and looking around as if he were a spectator! While recognized global geniuses like Miyagawa Akiko, Agnolo, Merritt, Zhao Fan, etc., wore serious expressions because they had all struggled to secure their spots in the main competition and naturally felt immense pressure for what lay ahead. 。I've been pushed to my absolute limit and I feel like I could fail at any moment. 。"Zhao Fan whispered, 'This is only the end of the preliminary round! It means that among the last 32 people, my strength is almost at the bottom.'" 。Zhao Fan only came into contact with martial arts after the virtual world opened, and he immediately showed extraordinary talent! The preliminaries of this World Martial Arts Championship poured a bucket of cold water on his head, giving him a clearer understanding of his own strength. 。Japan, only I remain in the main competition, carrying the hopes of the entire nation on my shoulders. 。I have no confidence in the next game. 。 。。Liu Hai was also observing his surroundings. Most of the familiar professional masters from the past had been surpassed, and very few could still stand at the peak. 。

"This time, seven people from Xia Guo entered the main competition." 。Liu Hai observed, there were seven of them in total: himself, Xu Jingming, Zhou Yi, Zhang Qing, Tu Ling, Zhao Fan, and Fang Yu. "Many are young people. Most of the old friends have been surpassed." 。"In this era, everyone cultivates and evolves. If you progress slowly, you will be surpassed!

…

Suddenly, a mighty voice echoed through the world: "Congratulations to everyone for obtaining the qualifying spots for the main competition of this tournament!" 。Based on your performance in the preliminary rounds, the virtual world simulation has determined the group arrangements for the main competition. 。Meanwhile, in the sky, the detailed group information for the competition appeared. 。

32 people from all over the world, divided into eight groups of four! 。The group stage of the World Martial Arts Tournament will be held over two days. 。On the first day, the group stage matches for groups one to four were held. 。The next day, the fifth to eighth groups' matches were held. 。The top two from each group can enter the next knockout round. 。The next two are out. 。A booming voice said 。Xu Jingming and the others also looked at the detailed groups that appeared in the sky. 。Tu Ling that little girl is in the first group, Tia Yano * Xilai is in the second group, Master Liu Hai is in the third group, and Madeline * Logan is in the fourth group. 。Xu Jingming was paying attention to the masters who performed easily in the preliminaries, such as Madeline *Logan. She wore boxing gloves and fought with her hands close to her body. She seemed very relaxed throughout the preliminaries. Xu Jingming could be sure that this woman named Madeline *Logan had already reached the fifth level comprehensively. 。He wasn't surprised, after all, with over a hundred people reaching the fourth-order limit nowadays, anyone breaking through to the fifth order was possible. 。Yashalova is in the fifth group, Haru*Singh is in the seventh group, and Te*g*Fosen is in the eighth group. 。Xu Jingming observed, "And I'm from the sixth group!"

"Nearly ten others are also relatively relaxed, their strength is uncertain" 。Xu Jingming thought to himself... 。World Martial Arts Championships Preliminary Round, Live Broadcast Throughout the Entire Tournament 。

The first round of the preliminary round, Arrow Gate, was still relatively relaxed in atmosphere. After all, those eliminated were only those with weaker strength. 。

The second round, with Killer Guan as the host, saw the atmosphere become increasingly tense. Many of those eliminated were the strongest fighters from their respective countries. 。The entire qualifying round lasted for more than an hour. 。"Tomorrow begins the main competition." 。"The preliminaries are already so intense, the main competition must be even more fierce." 。"Countless people began to leave the stage as the female host and three guests continued to discuss the individual contestants, speculating about the main competition tomorrow." 。Xu Jingming's personal space, in the living room of his home, Xu Jingming's relatives and friends gathered together 。The bar was set too high for this competition. Zhou Yi's rapid archery started to falter. If he dragged it out for just another five seconds, he would be defeated. 。"Xu Hong said, “It wasn't just him; several players made it through very narrowly, barely passing." 。Zhou Yi is already one of the only two divine archers in this competition. 。“Wang Yi said, 'To earn a spot in the main competition with archery skills is truly remarkable.'" 。She is also a fourth-order peak archer, the most qualified to speak. 。But Zhou Yi happened to be in the same group as the team captain. In their group, the captain was definitely first place, and the other three were vying for second place. 。。"Yang Qingxue sighed, 'Xu Ge one, Zhou Yi one, John Pierre, and Miyagawa Akira! They are all powerful figures. Of course, the most powerful in this group is still Xu Ge' " 。Xu Jingming smiled slightly. At least in the preliminary round, it seemed that these three people hadn't broken through. 。Only when he breaks through to the fifth order can he pose a challenge! Otherwise, the gap is too big. 。Starting from the evening of June 2nd, all matches in the first to fourth groups of the World Martial Arts Championship's main event will be held. Even before the competition begins, the official livestream has already attracted countless viewers. 。One section of the stands 。

Pang Ze watched the game with his wife and son. 。"Lao Pang, you're here to watch the match too" A smiling elder walked over. 。Mr. Li

“Pang Ze stood up to greet him, shaking hands with the other person. 'This is the first global competition since the Blue Star opened its virtual world. It also shows that among billions of people, these are the most talented and promising individuals.'" 。"Such a grand competition, how could one miss it" The elder nodded and said: "This time's competition will allow us to see the most promising individuals on our planet Blue Star. At that time, we can also invest a little, as a way of forging a good relationship." 。Their conversation naturally blocked out the surrounding sounds, so only they could hear each other. 。Where we need to invest, the country will naturally cultivate them, and the entire civilization will cultivate them. 。"Pang Ze said, 'What matters most to us now is to do our own thing well.'" 。The elder looked at Pang Ze: “I wonder how my proposal last time has been considered, Pang younger brother” "No interest" 。"Panzhe shook his head" 。

"Uncle Pang, you're always so ingenious." 。But the only issue is that it's too stable. 。The old man shook his head. “Sometimes, being too cautious can cause you to miss many opportunities.” 。The one I introduced to you is a descendant of the cosmic family! Their family territory has over ten administrative stars and dozens of star systems. 。He needs a good assistant now, my plan, the Blue Star civilization has also passed through…”

"I don't participate" 。"Panzhe shook his head and refused." 。The old man frowned secretly. 。Looking at the world, he only respects a handful of people, and Ponze ranks first among them. Unfortunately, Ponze doesn't pay much attention to him. 。"Well, well, everyone has their own pursuits." 。But, Lao Di, you have to understand that if an opportunity is missed, it's gone forever. 。The old man then left. 。Pang Ze frowned slightly, then turned to the commentary booth: "This old man is too opportunistic. Although he has occasional successes, if he fails, he could be ruined forever." 。In the vast universe, strength is paramount. 。"

Panzhe disliked this elder's style of doing things, although the elder was very cunning and now served as a loyal subordinate to that cosmic family member. But the bigger the scheme, the farther Panzhe wanted to stay away." 。This old geezer, he only reports good news to the Blue Star Alliance and hides the bad. I can vaguely tell that his plan is very risky. 。"Pang Ze thought to himself, 'He's completely boarded the ship of that family's son now.'" 。Well, even if he falls, it's his own fault. The Blue Star civilization is under the protection of the Galactic Human Alliance law, so it can withstand some ups and downs. 。The Blue Star civilization can withstand some storms, but its leader, Pang Ze, is too fragile to get involved. 。"Dad, the main competition has started" 。“The son, Pang Yun, excitedly said on the side, ‘The first group is Xia Guo’s Tu Ling, Ri Wen*Guli Te, Qiao Bora, and Alan*Amelilenko.’” 。"Panzhe stopped thinking further and began to watch the competition seriously: “I hope that this time's tournament will see enough amazing experts from our Blue Star civilization.” 。The progress of civilization's technology is very slow, only the evolutionary path can overtake! Let the Blue Star civilization have enough confidence to cope with other cosmic civilizations. 。At this moment, besides Pang Ze, many bigwigs from Blue Star are also watching this competition. Each of them is under pressure as well. 。As the higher echelon of this entire civilization, they are increasingly clear about what challenges the Blue Star civilization faces.

And this competition is selected from billions of people, the genius, also the hope of civilization. 。"I hope a world-renowned genius emerges." 。The Blue Star civilization needs strong individuals to emerge on the path of evolution. 。Many high-ranking officials on Blue Star quietly hoped. 。Miao immediately coaxed, "Of course, in my heart, Jingming, you are more handsome than him.""Don't coddle me, I know myself well." Xu Jingming shook his head.……Global media has gone crazy, what day is...
