Opening ceremony of the Genius Tournament.
As rousing music played, contestants from various countries entered the venue one by one with firm steps.
Their faces beamed with pride and joy, the supreme honor of representing their country in battle and the best recognition of themselves.
The colorful flags of various countries fluttered in the wind, displaying their splendor.
The audience cheered and applauded, applauding the appearance of each delegation.
Fang Xian, dressed in the team uniform, yawned and followed the team onto the field.
Ning Feng's face was full of joy, but when he saw Fang Xian's sleepy appearance, his smile froze.
"Fang Xian, wake up! It's the opening ceremony!"
Ning Rong'er hurriedly stepped forward and spoke with concern.
Are you alright?
Fang Xian rubbed his eyes and looked at Ning Rong'er with a mischievous smile.
"You should ask if you're alright."
"I..."
Ning Rong'er blushed slightly and dared not reply.
Fang Xian looked at the audience seats where the Chinese flag was being held, and straightened his back.
After the opening ceremony, the next match will be between the Dragon Kingdom and the Sakura Kingdom.
It has to be said that the United States understands the importance of creating a good show.
The rules for the opening match are very simple: 1v1, a round-robin format.
1: One person takes turns fighting against the other side's players one-on-one until they defeat all five of the opposing players to win.
2: Weapons and equipment can be used, but no "props" can be used.
3: Falling out of the arena, surrendering, killing an opponent, and losing the ability to fight are all considered losses.
4: Friendship first, competition second.
...
Dragon Kingdom Rest Room.
Ning Feng looked at everyone and announced the tactics.
"The tactical arrangement for the 'gauntlet' strategy is the same as before. I will explain it again now. First..."
Fang Xian spoke up, directly interrupting Ning Feng's tactical arrangements.
"Team Leader Ning, may I interrupt for a moment?"
Ning Feng looked at Fang Xian, feeling somewhat displeased, but not daring to offend this powerful figure, he still asked a question.
"Fang Xian, what's wrong?"
"I'll be the first to play in the opening match; you can arrange the rest yourself."
The gauntlet battle is the best stage to showcase individual abilities. Fang Xian wanted to take this opportunity to achieve a one-versus-five victory and ignite public opinion.
Ning Feng had already planned for Fang Xian to play, it was just a matter of order.
"It's not that you can go first, but I'll have to readjust the order of appearance..."
"No need to rack your brains, I'll just take on five opponents at once."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Fang Xian, whose face was full of confidence.
After a brief silence, Ning Feng shouted.
"good!"
Ning Feng naturally didn't believe Fang Xian's boastful words, but as the team leader, he couldn't dampen the spirits of his own players.
He can use this opportunity to boost morale.
"Let Fang Xian lead the charge! Let's secure our first victory!"
There was little objection from the crowd, since the first to appear was at a disadvantage, as their consumption and gains were not as good as those of the later contestants.
Ning Rong'er, who was sitting next to Fang Xian, leaned closer and whispered in his ear.
"Honey, you've used up so much energy last night, so be careful."
Fang Xian smiled confidently:
"no problem."
...
"The tactics are settled here. Let's do the bone age test first, and then we'll get ready to go on the field."
After Ning Feng finished speaking, he led the contestants toward the testing room.
The testing room is used to test the contestants' "bone age" to ensure it is 20 years old; otherwise, they will be disqualified.
It can also detect the contestants' levels, which can be used for data analysis during commentary.
Using their Dragon Kingdom employee badges, they entered a spacious and bright testing room.
The testing room is decorated in white and high-tech silver-gray tones, with a soft yet bright smart lighting system embedded in the ceiling.
Inside, there are rows of huge capsule-shaped testing instruments with flashing blue indicator lights on their surfaces; these are the testing machines used in the competition.
After Ning Feng completed his registration, he was led by staff to let Ning Rong'er and the others go in for testing.
They stepped into the testing machine, which then began scanning and collecting data.
Ning Feng and others could see the testing progress on the display screen outside the testing machine. In just one minute, the most accurate data appeared on the screen.
Staff transcribe the data, click upload, and then open the capsule compartment to replace the next batch.
Fang Xian confirmed once again that the "Hidden Bracelet" was wrapped in the "Covering Cloth" before he stepped inside, and the capsule chamber slowly closed.
He could barely hear any noise inside; he simply leaned back comfortably, and the test was completed.
Fang Xian stepped out of the capsule and looked back; his information was displayed there.
20 years old, Level 1.
Just as he predicted, he reached level 1 and then rampaged through the arena, creating the biggest buzz in the world.
At that time, countless people will rush to report on him, and the hype will definitely last a long time.
Upon seeing Fang Xian's level, the staff member scoffed dismissively.
He didn't care why Fang Xian's level was LV1; he was a contestant from China, so what did it have to do with the United States?
Ning Feng, Ning Rong'er, and the others were all surprised when they saw the displayed results, and hurriedly went forward to ask the staff.
"Hello, could you please test him again?"
"Is there something wrong with the machine?"
The staff member had a mocking look on his face.
"Our testing machine is the most advanced and newest in the world, and it will not have any problems."
"There's no way Fang Xian's level could be level 1. Please test it again."
"I'm sorry, I still have a lot of work to do. Please leave. I need to go test contestants from other countries."
Ning Feng clenched his fists, about to go up and argue with the staff, but Fang Xian held him down.
"Team Leader Ning, there's no need to test anymore, I'm already level 1."
"What!"
Upon hearing this, all the contestants from the Dragon Kingdom were furious.
Ning Feng tried his best to calm himself down and asked earnestly with hope.
"Fang Xian, are you really level 1?"
Fang Xian's expression was very serious, and he didn't seem to be joking at all.
He said seriously, "That's right, I am indeed level 1."
Ning Feng's body went limp, and he almost fell.
He was covered in sweat, his mind racing as he made a decision.
"Fang Xian, I have to make an adjustment. You won't be playing in this competition."
Fang Xian chuckled softly and shook his head slightly.
"I'm sorry, Team Leader Ning, I have to play. It's an order from above."
Ning Feng looked at Fang Xian suspiciously. When did the higher-ups issue such an order? How come he didn't know?
"this..."
"But you're only level 1, what can you do up there?"
Fang Xian smiled slyly, his eyes full of confidence.
"Of course, we'll go and beat up Japan, and let the whole world know how powerful Dragon kingdom is."
"At the same time, I also want my name to resound throughout the world."
