However, the busier she was, the emptier she felt, because the joy of success in her career was followed by greater loneliness. She would often think of the happy times she spent with Wang Tong, and there were no conflicts of interest or deceit. However, Samantha didn't know that first love was meant to be abandoned. She wished Ma Xiaoru and Wang Tong all the best in her heart, but who knew what would happen in the future if she missed them.
Character determined fate. Xiaoru was the kind of person who could sacrifice a little for love, but there were too few girls like her nowadays. However, her foolishness and infatuation could indeed be exchanged for a better and happier life.
You can't have your cake and eat it too.
At least his career was successful, Samantha comforted herself. It was probably because he was not satisfied.
Meanwhile, on the spaceship heading back to Earth, the students of Ayrlarng were happily enjoying their trip to the Moon. Most of the seventy students had never been to the Moon before. Meanwhile, Karl was telling a few girls about his achievements on the Moon.
It was fine if this kid didn't have to be so exaggerated, but it was torture for him not to show off.
Kyaero didn't say a word, but he was nervous. His Soul Energy was at the peak of Level Four, and he had become stronger under Wang Tong's training. However, he was the weakest among the participants of the Earth Confederation, and the overall strength of the Earth Confederation wasn't that strong. Therefore, he was afraid that he would be humiliated in the arena.
"Kyaero, what are you doing? Why are you frowning? Let's go and play billiards."
"I'm not in the mood for that."
"Sigh, don't overthink it, you've already made Ayrlarng proud by advancing to the next round. What you need to do now is to relax, you don't need to feel pressured, Hu Yangxuan is much more stressed than you are. Let's go, let's go," Kyaero said as he dragged Kyaero away.
"Ahhhhh, are you convinced? I've trained before. Come, come, come. If you're not convinced, come at me!" On the other side, Xiao Hu knocked on the table arrogantly.
"Damn, Hu Yangxuan, you are too arrogant. It seems that I have to show my true abilities!" Karl rolled up his sleeves and said.
"Come on, you've already lost three rounds. Newbie, get someone who knows how to fight."
"Let me do it, I know a little!" Kyaero said.
"Come, come, place your bets. Those who bet on Hu Yangxuan, stand on the left, those who bet on Kyaero, stand on the right, and those who are neither men nor women, stand in the middle!"
Carl shouted in a professional manner.
"What about those who don't?" Rumi asked in a low voice.
"Stand in the middle," Karl immediately answered. Rumi quickly followed Zhou Sisi and stood on the right side.
"Little Hu, can you do it? Kyaero is more popular than you now."
"Big brother speaks with strength. Come and fight!"
Hu Yangxuan and the others were playing a fancy billiards game. The higher the skill, the higher the number of hits, the higher the score. Obviously, Kyaero was also a martial artist. The two of them were really hard to distinguish, and in the end, little student Hu Yangxuan won by a narrow margin.
This time, Hu Yangxuan was proud. "Haha, I told you. Who else is unconvinced? Hurry up."
Seeing no response, Hu Yangxuan turned to Wang Tong, who was looking at the scenery outside the window, and said, "Wang Tong, come over here! Let's play a round of billiards. If I can't beat you, I'll beat you up in billiards. Stand on my side if you want to see Wang Tong get beaten up!"
Wang Tong smiled and said, "You guys go ahead, I haven't played in a long time."
"Boss, let's play a round of billiards and relax. We'll think about the competition when we get to the Moon," Rumi said.
"Haha, alright, I'll play one round. I haven't played for a long time." Wang Tong laughed.
"Don't worry, I'll save you some face since we are so close. Let's begin!" Hu Yangxuan said excitedly. He knew that Wang Tong didn't know how to play billiards.
In the past, this kid had to save every single dollar. Where would he find the time to play billiards? He had hired professional players to teach him.
Wang Tong touched the cue stick and was impressed by the quality of the stuff on the spaceship. Wang Tong rubbed the stick skillfully and pulled it back and forth a few times. It reminded him of his old life.
As soon as Wang Tong got into position, Kyaero and the others noticed that something was wrong. Obviously, Wang Tong was a veteran.
Pow …
Three balls into the hole.
Wang Tong shook his head and felt that the feel of the cue stick was really bad.
Thud … thud, thud, thud …
One hit, two hits … three hits, one ball into the pocket, and three rounds!
Thud, thud, thud …
…
Three thousand five hundred and eighty to … zero.
Wang Tong won.
Hu Yangxuan was pissed. "What the f * ck! You have to pretend to be weak even when you're playing billiards?"
Everyone burst into laughter. They all thought that Wang Tong was a good student who spent all his time studying and training, and they thought that he wasn't good at playing, but Wang Tong was the real pro.
"You need at least three to four years of practice to be able to do that!" Kyaero exclaimed, "He's almost at the professional level."
"F * ck, he's this good after a few years? Doesn't that mean he used to be a professional?" Hu Yangxuan was pissed off.
Wang Tong smiled wryly. Of course, he had never played in a professional league, but he had been trained by Old Fart to play in the underground casinos. Old Fart would take advantage of Wang Tong's lack of money, but after a while, no one would fall for his tricks anymore, and Old Fart would have to find another way to earn money.
"I used to play a lot when I was younger. Wanna play again?"
"Nope, I'm not a masochist. Whoever wants to play can play." Xiao Hu, who had been abused for a long time, knew very well that he would be beaten until he was convinced. Therefore, he wisely retreated in the face of difficulties.
"Wang Tong, please teach me."
"I want to learn too."
"Yeah, it sounds fun."
Hu Yangxuan and Karl couldn't help but smile wryly after hearing Zhou Sisi's words.
"It's all your fault. Why did you have to provoke him instead of letting him enjoy the starry sky?"
"It's none of my business. I don't know. You can't blame society." Hu Yangxuan sighed and walked out.
"What are you doing?" Karl followed him.
"I'm going to the toilet!"
"F * ck!" Karl gave Wang Tong the middle finger.
The level of the Military Tournament was obviously much higher than the Star Wars Tournament. The streets were filled with advertisements for the Military Tournament. The atmosphere was intense, and the scale of the event was much larger. This was a grand event for mankind. There were more than six hundred participants and thousands of related personnel. The total number of spectators who came from afar was estimated to be in the tens of millions. It was indeed worthy of being called the number one grand event of mankind.
Wang Tong and the rest of the contestants had already experienced this. The Ivantians, as the host of the tournament, were very attentive to their services, and the city's construction was perfect.
Even though it wasn't the first time Wang Tong and the rest of the contestants had been here, it still felt different. The Moon City was indeed worthy of its title as the first human city.
Those who came to Moon City for the first time were even more excited. They were able to experience the advanced civilization of the Ivantians. In terms of urban construction, Moon City was decades ahead of the first-tier cities on Earth and Mars. There was no doubt that Moon City was incomparable.
The contestants didn't seem to be in a good mood as they had to prepare for the upcoming tournament. Every match of the tournament would be broadcasted live to the entire human world, and this time, the Five Great Houses, the Sect of the Deity, the Templar, the Kaedeians, and the mysterious Master from the Andromeda Galaxy were all gathered in the Moon City.
The schedule of the tournament had already been arranged, and the contestants didn't have much time to rest. As a fighter, they had to prepare for the upcoming tournament.
Wang Tong, Hu Yang, and Kyaero were all present on the first day of the tournament. They had to win two matches and advance to the next round.
The competition was split into eight regions. The Three Great Alliances would choose eight first-seeded players and eight second-seeded players to be randomly placed into the eight regions. This was to prevent the strongest players from clashing too early. At the same time, these sixteen players were undoubtedly the most favored and had the best chance of winning.
The first section: Patroclus, Moon;
The second section: Li Shiming, Earth;
The third section: Li Ruo-Er, Earth;
The fourth section: Lie Jian, Mars;
The fifth section: Michaux Odin, Mars;
The sixth section: Princess Heidi, Kaedeian;
The seventh section: Li Xing (Thunder Blade), Moon;
The eighth section: Zhang Buyu, Templar;
The other eight second-seeded contestants were: Ye Kai (Templar), Guan Dongyang (Mars, Arcana), Turbolis (Earth, Wind Cloud Kick), Tevez (Moon, Dark Moon), Samir (Kaedeian), Gongsun Wuce (Moon, Gongsun Secret Arts), Wu Ma (Earth, Dark Witch), and Alan Smith (Moon, Space City, Golden Wheel Art).
These sixteen contestants were the most likely to win the tournament, and they were both famous and powerful.
For example, Wang Ben and the other inheritors of advanced skills were in the third section. However, compared to the other sixteen contestants, they were either not as famous, not as powerful, or had been defeated in the tournament.
In the great Sky Arena, the 66th MMA Contest of the Pan-Solar System Human Alliance was about to begin. There was no shortage of celebrities in the MMA Contest. Celebrities from various industries of the three Federations were all present, including Mike, a big shot in the entertainment industry, and Douglas, the head of the Federation. The VIP box was filled with stars, especially the important figures of the Ivantians. This was the home ground of the Ivantians, a festival of the Ivantians. More importantly, as an important figure of the Ivantians, it would be a shame if he missed out on such an important occasion.
Moreover, the masters of the Dower family and the Zhang family of the Iron Curtain would be present at the opening ceremony. The two most powerful families of the Ivantians would be there, and no one would dare to disrespect them.
The program before the opening ceremony was extremely extravagant. The Ivantians had fully demonstrated their technological superiority and strong economic power. The cost of the opening ceremony was definitely astronomical. The virtual screen that covered a few kilometers of the entire venue had shocked both the earthlings and the Martians.
The legends about the Moon that originated from Earth formed a picture of the long river of history. It was obvious that the Ivantians worshipped the Moon very much because they lacked roots. That was why they valued the Moon so much.
