Then, until the end of the impassioned music, not a single person walked through the entrance.
In the silent live-stream, the Harken's smile had already stiffened on the spot. For some reason, the Harken's voice rang in everyone's ears.
Fortunately, just as the Harken was about to lose all hope, the door to the entrance was finally pushed open.
A soft sound of footsteps could be heard.
Under the spotlight, a gentle smile appeared in front of everyone. Huai Shi wasn't the only one who was stunned. Even the Harken froze on the spot. It was as though they were asking, "Why are you here?!"
It was as though the woman had finally returned after a long journey. She was carrying a huge backpack, a sun hat on her head, and a hiking stick in her hand.
But her smile was bright and clear.
She looked around and couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Eh? Is this a live-stream? Did I come at the wrong time? "
So you know about it!
The Harken had a stiff smile on its face as it widened its eyes and threw a 'why are you here' look at the Harken. Then, the Harken turned around and glanced at the Harken as well, throwing back a 'it's hard to explain' look.
Then, the Harken threw a look that said, "I knew she'd gone missing again. But, wasn't she just backstage? Where the hell did she go?" The newcomer threw a look that said, "Urgent mission has been called away, so I'm here to take over."
The two completed the exchange of glances.
Like hell.
It was like a chicken talking to a duck.
In the end, the two reached a consensus in just a few short glances. Although they didn't know what had happened, they had to leave it at that.
The Harken's eyes were already twitching, and it looked as though his mouth and eyes were slanted.
After a dry cough, he said to the audience in the venue, "Let me introduce everyone. This is our live guest, Bai … ahem, Miss Bai Ze. Madam Bai Ze, please greet the audience. "
"Hello, everyone."
Bai Ze sat on the chair in a rather reserved manner and waved to the audience in a soft voice. After taking off her sun hat, her black hair cascaded down like flowing water and spread across the ground like a meandering stream.
Her smile was bright and beautiful.
Is this the Bai Ze whose combat strength is above Fu Canguang's?
Huai Shi frowned in confusion. He didn't look like he could fight at all!
Or rather, he looked like he couldn't fight at all!
Judging from his relaxed posture and sleepy appearance, he seemed to be at the level of an average Tier Five Origin Substance. No, he was even below the level of a Tier Five Origin Substance......
But soon, he noticed the strange behavior of the audience on the screen.
When they heard that Bai Ze would replace the White Emperor's son to commentate, the audience was stunned.
After a group of people came to their senses, they suddenly slumped in their chairs and sighed in disappointment. Another group of people was stunned for a moment before they suddenly became excited and cheered even louder.
Great!
Although he couldn't see the younger sister, he could see the cute and beautiful older sister!
Then, the two groups of people looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with disdain, as if they were looking at their mortal enemies.
But for some reason, the stalemate disappeared in an instant. At the same time, both sides revealed a trace of gentleness in their eyes.
They reached an understanding.
Ah, there's nothing wrong with being a lolicon. It's just that he was traumatized when he was young … Yes, there's nothing wrong with being a big sister. It's just that he lacks some maternal love...
A strange thought suddenly arose in their minds, causing the dispute to disappear and peace to prevail.
It was like an illusion.
When Bai Ze sat down on her chair, the originally restless crowd instantly calmed down. It was as if they had been bestowed with wisdom and patience.
Everyone seemed to have understood something, and they smiled at each other. It was very harmonious.
Except for the Harken.
The Harken's face was about to turn green. He frantically gave Bai Ze a look, telling her to quickly put away her divine mark. If they continued to be so lovey-dovey, the competition wouldn't be able to continue!
What's the point of fighting?
Friendship comes first, competition comes second. Just add each other on WeChat and become friends.
Bai Ze seemed to have sensed that something was wrong. She revealed an awkward smile and tapped her trekking staff with her finger. In an instant, the silence was gone.
There must be something wrong with the brains of those lolicons … It wouldn't be wrong to shoot each and every one of them … What were those idiots thinking? If they were so lacking in motherly love, they should just go back to kindergarten …
Peace was fleeting, and at this moment, the dispute was like adding oil to the fire, becoming more and more intense. Everyone's eyes seemed to be on fire, covered with blood vessels.
The Harken's ears twitched under his long hair, and he gestured wildly at Bai Ze with his palms under the table.
Okay, okay. This is enough. I'm hosting a competition. I'm not going to let the audience kill each other …
It wasn't just the stadium. Even the venue itself was filled with tension.
Even the pressure of dozens of steel geese couldn't suppress the eerie and gloomy atmosphere. Everyone was sharpening their swords as they glanced at each other.
Huai Shi gasped. He no longer dared to underestimate any Tier 5 combatants.
If not for the fact that he had the Book of Destiny with him, he wouldn't even have noticed the sudden changes in the arena. Everything seemed to be going according to plan, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.
Everything was natural.
Regardless of whether it was the calm and peaceful tranquility or the tense restlessness, everything seemed to be the way it should be. Everyone didn't even know how to resist.
As the countdown ticked down to the last second, the awkward interaction between the host and the guest finally came to an end. The two men glanced at each other, and the Harken looked up at the camera and revealed a beaming smile.
"Time is ticking away, my friends. The sound of firecrackers is gone, and the peach blossoms are gone … Wait a minute, bloody hell, give me a new teleprompter. That's the one for the new year. Yes, that's the one."
He coughed dryly without the slightest hint of awkwardness, "In short, with the arrival of the hour, I hereby announce on behalf of the organizing committee that the 19th Asian Rising Stars Competition has officially begun."
In that instant, Huai Shi heard a roar coming from above his head.
The ground beneath his feet trembled violently.
The strange sensation that he felt when he was in the elevator earlier filled him once more. His face turned pale with fright, and he subconsciously gripped the armrest of his chair tightly.
Then, he saw the pale white sky and earth tremble abruptly.
The dome that was originally glowing with a pure white light suddenly opened up, revealing the surging dark clouds overhead, as well as the deep rumbling of thunder in the distance.
Under the dark canopy of the sky, the sound of crashing waves rose and fell one after another.
Thick water vapor and splashing water droplets converged into a viscous mist that leaked down from the gradually opening dome. Everyone felt their faces get wet. Huai Shi saw dew quickly condensing on the glass in front of his helmet.
Thunder rumbled across the gloomy sky.
There was a loud roar.
A torrential downpour gathered in an instant and sprinkled down on the mortal realm. However, it didn't fall on Huai Shi's body at all. In his astonishment, he discovered that the rainwater was actually rising up against the sky, flying out of the endless tide and disappearing into the dark clouds and lightning.
The hurricane howled and burst forth with a roar.
The dome finally opened completely to both sides, and Huai Shi finally caught a glimpse of where he was.
In this rain, they were on a huge freighter, sitting on chairs welded to the floor, quietly staying in the warehouse like goods.
The surging tide and waves kept surging, teasing this huge freighter. It was like a toy, easily swaying, tossing, flying, and falling, smashing the oncoming tide and moving forward with a loud rumble.
In the dark rainstorm, a low cry echoed in the distance.
Then, a deafening siren burst forth.
The siren and searchlights tore apart the curtain of rain and mist, revealing the other freighters that were braving the wind and waves in this endless sea.
The ascenders from the other sub-venues looked at each other in astonishment through the rain.
Only Huai Shi sucked in a breath of cold air. He raised his head and looked at the gradually dissipating dark clouds above his head.
"Damn, it can't be …"
As he whispered, the lightning and dark clouds above his head finally tore apart a huge gap under the washing and shaking of the rain. From there to here, it seemed to span thousands of miles.
It revealed the appearance of the 'sky'.
No, that should be the real earth …
Surrounded by the darkness, Huai Shi saw a huge silent city … It was as if it was submerged in the sea. The darkness was like a tide, wreaking havoc in the vague outline of the city.
The whole city was like a rotting whale in the sea, bobbing in the invisible tide of darkness, revealing a decaying and strange aura.
At this moment, how could Huai Shi not understand that she was already at the border?
To be precise, he was in the tyrannical sea that hung high at the border of Asia. Under the protection of the giant goose enterprise, he braved the wind and waves all the way, gradually approaching the city under his' feet '.
Excitement.
A feeling of excitement overflowed from the Mountain Ghost's Sacred Mark, making Huai Shi feel the anticipation and desire of the miracle in his body at this moment.
There was also a deep resonance with the darkness in the city.
There was no need for words. He already knew that it was probably the arena prepared for this year's Rookie Competition.
Far away from the present and protection of the border, the light of sparks.
A hell without a doubt.
.
Just as the camera of the live broadcast reflected the outline of the city, all the viewers in the special seats fell into a brief moment of astonishment. Then, in the front, the representative of Yingzhou Luming Hall, the elegant old minister's face suddenly turned pale.
"Protest! Protest! "
He got up angrily and roared at the young man representing the Social Security Bureau, "I want to see His Excellency Xuan Niao, immediately!"
The young man called Big Cousin turned back, raised his eyebrows, and showed a strange expression, "His Excellency Xuan Niao is reviewing the project of Jixia. If you have a request for a meeting, you can convey it through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."
"How ridiculous!"
The old minister glared at him with his eyes wide open, "We express a serious protest against East Xia's actions! We will never allow such interference with our country's territory and sovereignty! "
For a time, everyone who understood showed an ambiguous smile. They did not get involved in the conflict between the Social Security Bureau and the Luming Hall, but showed an expression of watching a show.
