Li Feng shook his head. Thinking too much at the mont is useless; in the end, strength speaks louder than words.
No matter who the opponent is, this ti he must take first place.
The next day.
Knock, knock, knock.
Li Feng's room door was knocked on. Wearing a bathrobe, Li Feng opened the door and looked at Tie Xuan outside: "Are you completely recovered?"
Tie Xuan nodded: "Yeah, just had a good sleep and I'm fine."
"Old Hua just called, saying there's a last-minute change in schedule, and we need to et in a conference hall at the Century Hotel at ten o'clock."
"Oh, did they say what it's about?"
"Seems like they're going to draw lots to arrange the match list in advance," Tie Xuan said.
"Your hand?"
"It's nothing, just so minor injuries. Wait for here for a mont, I'll go change clothes." Li Feng turned back to his bedroom, and a mont later, after changing clothes, he ca to the living room.
"Let's go, we need to head to the conference hall."
Li Feng and Tie Xuan left the room, asked directions from the service staff, and the two arrived at a large conference hall that could accommodate over a hundred people. Upon entering, many competitors had already gathered inside.
"Li Feng, Tie Xuan."
Not far away, Xiao Xi waved at Li Feng and Tie Xuan.
Li Feng glanced around, matching so faces with the data he had seen before, then stepped forward with Tie Xuan towards where Xiao Xi and the others were.
At this mont, the hall wasn't exactly divided, but there were several groups, roughly split by district, with so odd individuals not clustering with others.
"Has your injury gotten better?"
Xiao Xi looked at Li Feng and asked.
"Yeah."
Li Feng nodded. Xiao Xi looked around and whispered: "Li Feng, this national Martial Arts Tournant has so real masters, just the ones I recognize are already a few, all top figures in the world."
"That one over there, from the Eight Diagrams Sect Zhang family, is the top talent of this generation. It's said that he was the youth champion of the national Martial Arts Tournant at just fifteen, nicknad Iron Hand King Yan."
"I really don't know how he ca to participate in this tournant."
Li Feng followed Xiao Xi's pointing direction and indeed saw a square-faced, firm-charactered Zhang Qian standing straight, out of place with those around him.
Zhang Qian seed to feel soone looking at him and looked up, eting eyes with Li Feng.
The scene was sowhat like that classic internet joke.
What are you looking at?
Looking at you, so what?
Not allowed to look at .
Unlike the guy in the joke who would fight, Zhang Qian rely nodded in acknowledgnt and looked elsewhere.
"Hey, look at the door."
At that mont, Xiao Xi nudged Li Feng with his elbow, and Li Feng turned to look at the door, only to see a young girl walking in. As soon as she stepped into the conference room, people instinctively moved aside.
"She's Long Xueshen from the Southwest District, from the Miao Clan, good at Gu Manipulation Technique. Despite her cute fairy-like appearance, she's terrifying when in action."
"Can't believe she can participate in the tournant, what she's doing is basically cheating."
Xiao Xi seed a bit wary of this girl, since, after all, she was adept with bugs, and what girl likes bugs, especially when she had a venomous snake on her.
How she passed security all the way here is anyone's guess.
Li Feng gave an 'oh' sound, looking at the pleasant girl,
In terms of looks, this Long Xueshen was on par with Wang Jin'er, and her figure was excellent too. Of course, the most eye-catching thing about this girl wasn't her face or figure, but the snakehead poking from her shoulder.
This snake was wrapped around her waist like a belt, its body winding around her neck, its head darting its tongue at onlookers.
This Miao Clan girl was seemingly long-used to people's gaze and wariness around her. After entering the conference hall, she directly went to a vacant spot at the back without interacting with anyone.
Xiao Xi looked at Long Xueshen: "I hope I don't draw her as my opponent."
Inside the conference hall, while Li Feng and others observed others, others were also sizing them up, as starting tomorrow, anyone could be an opponent.
During the conversation.
From outside, people from the Tang Sect ca in as well, but among Tang Chuan's group, Tang Yue wore a mask covering most of his face.
"Heh, still knows to wear a mask, knows he can't show his face."
Xiao Xi glanced over and sneered.
Tie Xuan clenched his Iron Fist: "Hopefully, I won't draw them as opponents."
Clearly, being sneak-attacked by Tang Sect yesterday left Tie Xuan seething with anger.
Tang Chuan and his group also felt the stares, glancing over at Li Feng and the others, causing sparks to fly in the atmosphere.
But in full view, Tang Chuan didn't stir up trouble, leading his people aside as other competitors arrived one after another.
"May I have your attention, everyone? Everyone who should be here has arrived, so I will now announce two matters."
At this mont, an elder stepped forward, announcing loudly.
"This national Martial Arts Tournant will be a single elimination, where the winner progresses, and the loser is eliminated. There are sixty-four participants in this tournant."
"As for the match arrangents, they will be by draw. Soon, staff will co with a box to each participant, and everyone can draw a ping pong ball in advance. Inside the ping pong ball is an assigned number."
"This number needs to be kept secure by you and shown during the match."
"As for the match order, it will be determined by this lottery machine, pairing participants according to the drawn numbers, and continuing in sequence until the final winner is determined."
"Please take a look, this is the tournant pyramid diagram."
"Now we will begin the draw, and the staff will distribute the ping pong balls."
Having said that, the host elder nodded at a staff mber pushing a cart with a wooden box, who then wheeled the cart towards the crowd.
"Please draw, each person can only take one ping pong ball," the service staff instructed the participants.
"What kind of play is this?"
Tie Xuan frowned and asked.
"Big lug, can't you see? This draw serves as double insurance. The initial draw sets the match table, but even so, without the numbers inside the ping pong balls, you don't know who you will face, unless you foolishly reveal your number."
"Got it?"
Xiao Xi said.
