Chapter 071: The Exchange Meeting Begins
"Of course there are gains." Shen Zheng nodded. "This part of the knowledge is something I have never learned before. It was the first time I saw this kind of insect ability. I discovered that not only the energy-based insect abilities can restrain each other, but also different insect abilities can restrain each other. For example, the more you use fire to burn sand, the stronger it will be. If you use water to burn it, its structure will gradually become looser and eventually it will break down. "
"That's right." Chu Tianran nodded, "This is the mutual restriction and mutual restraint of insect abilities. I deliberately didn't point it out just now, just to let you figure it out for yourself, so that the impression of knowledge will be deeper. You are indeed a genius. I figured it out as soon as I hit him, but you really surprised me. I thought you would put away the flames and use ordinary insect breath to deal with him, but I didn't expect you to use a water knife. It's really. It’s so surprising!”
"Actually, I had an experience when I was fighting insects before." Shen Zheng said, "Any insect ability with xng attributes is just an addition. For example, flame does have special power, but it is not this This power is superior to other powers. Simple insect breaths without other energy attributes are also powerful. Various attributes only allow them to have some special effects, such as fire, which is aggression. "Xng's powerful power can burn a large area when used, while water is a concentrated and continuous power. It is useless when used in large-scale attacks, but it is quite effective when used to focus on breaking."
"Okay, okay!" Chu Tianran became even more happy, "You are worthy of being the top student of our Longxing Academy!" As he said this, he burst into laughter.
Soon after, the battle between Shen Zheng and Zhao Yong spread throughout the exchange center, and representatives from the other national academies had different thoughts. [
"Xiao Hao, what do you think?" In that room, the owner of the house in a crisp uniform asked Ma Yingjie standing in front of him.
"It's not a big deal." Ma Yingjie smiled slightly, "I have heard the details from our people in the residential area of Longxing College. Shen Zheng is indeed better than Zhao Yong, but he is only between the same brothers. Zhao Yong is mainly defeated. As for Shen Zheng’s two energy insect-like abilities, Shen Zheng only took advantage of the water-breaking sand ability.”
"That's roughly how I see it." The owner of the house nodded. "Representatives from colleges from other countries are not worth mentioning. The champion this time is none other than us. Xiaohao, since the military region established the exchange center in Tianhe, we have never lost the honor of being the champion of the exchange conference. This is The pride of our Tianhe Academy. Don’t let history be rewritten.”
"Don't worry, director." Ma Yingjie was full of confidence.
Two days later, the exchange meeting officially began. Early in the morning, the exchange center was jammed with media and visitors from all walks of life. Fortunately, these visitors were all outstanding officers and soldiers from several major legions in Tianhe. Although there were many people, they were in good order. Otherwise, it would have been chaos. It's an out-of-control mess.
After the fighting gym opened, the reporters immediately took their guns and cannons to the gym to find a good position and set up. Of course, Tianhe Country's own media would naturally get the best position. After they were placed, visitors began to enter one after another and filled the stands of the fighting gym.
Ten minutes later, representatives from the six major colleges gathered in the Central Fighting Gym.
More than a dozen members of the Organizing Committee came to the rostrum surrounded by two people. One of them was Liu Zhenbei, the deputy secretary-general of the Organizing Committee, and the other looked to be in his early forties, with a serious expression and flowing hair. He has black hair and looks somewhat handsome.
After the two sat down, they could tell from the name tags on the table in front of them that the long-haired middle-aged man was Shui Minglei, the secretary-general of the organizing committee and a cadre sent directly from the military region.
Shen Zheng looked at this scene and felt vaguely amused - there were only six students participating in the exchange meeting, but there were more than a dozen people on the organizing committee, which felt like a waste of resources.
But soon, he knew that his understanding of this exchange meeting was still incomplete. Chu Tianran introduced the exchange meeting in his eyes to Shen Zheng from his own subjective perspective, but in fact, this exchange meeting was not just for the six colleges. of the festival.
After everyone in the organizing committee sat down, the deans of the six major colleges sat down at another table on the right side of the rostrum. After that, someone from the organizing committee stood up to announce the start of the exchange meeting, and followed a set of procedures for standing up and saluting while playing music. After the opening ceremony, which lasted more than 20 minutes, the media's camera flashes kept shining, and the illusion of light kept shining in the venue.
Next, relevant personnel announced the schedule of the exchange meeting. Only then did Shen Zheng know that in addition to the six major colleges in the six countries, there were dozens of colleges participating in the exchange meeting. He asked Chai Feifei curiously, but Chai Feifei was stunned by him: "So you don't even know this?"
"No one told me." Shen Zheng said, thinking at the same time: Do you think I am a fresh graduate who has studied in college for several years? To be honest, not long ago, I was just a high school dropout working as a wage earner. I didn’t know the specific details of such high-level activities.
"This exchange meeting can be roughly divided into two parts." Chai Feifei said, "At first, this was not divided by the organizer, but everyone tacitly agreed in their hearts. But later, the organizer also followed everyone's wishes and divided the exchange competition into these two parts. One part is the competition between the six major colleges, and the other part is the competition between other colleges in various countries. The six major colleges are national colleges with the support of the state machinery, while other colleges are only supported by the legions of major cities. The strength is not at the same level, so the top six are out of the question, so it is better to separate it from the competition of the six major colleges to avoid being used as sandbags by the students of the six major colleges."
"So that's the case." Shen Zheng nodded. "I said there were only six people competing, so why are there more than a dozen people in the organizing committee."
Chai Feifei looked at him and couldn't help laughing: "You are such a strange person, how come you don't know anything?"
Shen Zheng rolled his eyes and said nothing.
I thought the competition would start as soon as I arrived, but I didn't expect that the first thing to happen was the exchange between other colleges. Not long after the organizing committee announced the list of draw groups, the competition began. The exchange competition was a single-elimination tournament, and no one had a chance to make a comeback. If they were defeated by their opponents, they would be completely eliminated. [
The fighting area of the fighting arena was large enough to hold two groups of matches at the same time, but even so, the competitions of these ordinary colleges alone lasted for three days.
During the three days, Shen Zheng observed the students of these colleges and found that they were indeed not on the same level as the students of the six major colleges. When the top ten were announced three days later, Shen Zheng shook his head and sighed - the insect power of the top students of the college ranked first was only 86, so you can imagine what ordinary students would be like.
On the fourth day, the highlight began, and the major media that had been lazily reporting on this exchange meeting suddenly widened their eyes and cheered up, as if a drunkard had seen a wine bug and a delicious food.
During these three days, Chai Feifei had already obtained the information of the representatives of the students from the other five major colleges for Shen Zheng, of course, it was limited to things like names and ages.
This time, the representative of Tianhe College is 27-year-old Lu Hao; the representative of Longyu College is 29-year-old Zhao Yong; the representative of Zuoyu College is 19-year-old Liu Ya, a girl; Wenlan’s is naturally 28-year-old Hu Keli; Qiwei’s is 26-year-old Mo Chen. Among the representatives of the six colleges, Shen Zheng and Zuoyu’s Liu Ya are the youngest.
According to the previous procedures, before the official competition, the host of the organizing committee first played up the atmosphere for half a day, making the audience excited to watch this big battle, and the major media also excitedly held their cameras and video cameras, waiting for the show to start.
"First item, please enter the venue and take the oath!"
As the host shouted loudly, the low-level staff of the organizing committee came to the stands of the six colleges, invited the six representatives out, and stood in a row in the center of the fighting field. At this time, the slide lights of the media cameras kept flashing, making people unable to open their eyes.
However, for the six masters, this was nothing. After transporting the insect breath to the eyes for proper protection, it was not impossible to look directly at the sun, let alone flashes.
The six people stood up with their chests and heads held high, accepting the baptism of the flashing slide lights, and then followed the host to recite the oath: "I swear to abide by the rules of the exchange meeting, fight with others for the purpose of learning and improving, not use any conspiracy or tricks, not violate the rules of the game, and only rely on my true strength to exchange for the glory I deserve!"
After the oath, it was time to draw lots. While the host was preparing the draw box, Hu Keli turned around and looked at Shen Zheng.
"Shen Zheng, listen, I was defeated by you because I underestimated the enemy last time!" He said angrily, "This time I must prove to everyone that you are just a fluke!"
"Okay." Shen Zheng looked at him and answered casually.
"Shen Zheng." Zhao Yong also turned to Shen Zheng, "Last time you just took advantage of my ability, this time I'm fully prepared, you can only lose to me!"
"Whatever you want." Shen Zheng shrugged with a smile on his face.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Yong snorted.
"Nothing." Shen Zheng said, "It's just that some people are very ridiculous."
"You!" Zhao Yong glared at Shen Zheng.
"Shen Zheng, be low-key." At this time, Lu Hao of Tianhe College slowly turned his head and looked at Shen Zheng and said slowly. "Victory is certainly worthy of pride, but winning in a real arena and a fair fight is the real glory. I hope you can put away your pride and pay attention to your enemies. In that case, the second place may really fall on your head. This is a complete turnaround for Longxing College, an amazing breakthrough, enough for you to be recorded in the history of the college."
"I have always been low-key." Shen Zheng turned to him. "Lü Hao from Tianhe College, right? Your words show that you are not a low-key person. You said that the second place might fall on me, so what about the first place? Is it you?"
