The Sector Championship was very open, fair, and free. Everyone who signed up would be recorded and made public, and anyone who logged onto the Sector Championship's platform would be able to look it up. This way, if they saw someone they wanted to challenge, they could also sign up and participate.
In the past, the single combat tournament was the most popular of all small-scale competitions. It was very easy to stir up the students' blood. Everyone hoped that they could become a domineering figure who could single-handedly defeat tens of thousands of opponents. With such glory and standing in the limelight, who would be willing to share it with another person?
But this term was different. When the duo of Knight and Shadow X appeared on the participant list, the entire Sector Championship platform's situation began to change.
The single and double combat competitions were held at almost the same time. Students would usually only participate in one of them. At the same time, it was also a more comprehensive assessment of each school's combat strength.
Due to the sudden discovery of the duo's name on the list of participants, many students who had already signed up for the single combat competition also signed up for the double combat competition. As a result, the number of people signing up for the double combat competition exceeded the number of people signing up for the single combat competition.
Fortunately, it was a virtual platform. It could provide multiple match points to start at the same time, so it would not cause a situation where too many people could not participate. There was no upper limit to the number of participants in the small-scale competition. This was also a major feature of the Sector Championship's platform.
Inside the Third Military Academy's gravity training room, Faradin was fighting against someone. The blurry shadows of fists and the banging sounds of fists and kicks clashing against each other rang out incessantly. It was obvious that Faradin was slightly inferior to the opponent, and he was having a bit of a hard time dealing with the fists that were coming his way.
To be able to maintain such a high speed in such a gravitational field, it had to be said that the two of them were quite outstanding.
Bang!
Faladin took a few steps back, swung his arms that blocked the kick, and said with some annoyance, "I missed another move."
"It's fine. You're already very outstanding. No one in the first years can block so many of my moves."
After fighting for such a long time, Faradin's opponent actually didn't sweat much, and his slightly hurried breathing soon calmed down.
Faradin looked at the other party, and said for the umpteenth time, "Boss Boer, I really want to see your duel with Shadow X. It must be very exciting."
Standing not too far away, Boer relaxed his muscles and shook his head. "Shadow X is too mysterious. Many of the people I know have sent him war invitations, but none of them have responded. Who knows what kind of god he is. But I suggest you meet Nate when the time comes. "
"Seven Lights' Knight? He seems to be quite famous. I heard from my dorm that he's also a freshman. " Ever since he lost to Shadow X, Faradin hadn't paid much attention to anyone else. He usually only learned about them from others.
"Knight could've come to the military academy, but somehow he ended up at Sector B. However, his strength cannot be underestimated. Do you know Nate's full name? "
Faradin shook his head.
"Knight's full name is Feigler Knight."
"Thunderstorm Feigler?!" Faradin was immediately interested.
"That kid hasn't used Thunderstorm Punch since he entered the Sector Championship's platform."
Faladin rubbed his fists and feet. "He will definitely meet him when the time comes. He should be participating in the single combat tournament, right?"
"It should be …"
Di di di —
The emergency pager on the wall of the training room rang. Communicators were not allowed in the Gravity Training Field, so both of them had their communicators turned off. If there was an emergency, they would use the special pager on the wall to transfer the call.
Boer walked to the side, removed the gravity field, and connected the pager.
"What happened?"
"Boss Boer, there's big news on the Sector Championship platform!! Knight and Shadow X have teamed up and signed up for the double combat tournament! "
Faradin, who was putting on his jacket, pricked his ears and lost control of his strength, tearing his jacket into two pieces. Faradin didn't care about his jacket either, and simply tossed the two pieces to the side before running to Boer's side like a wisp of smoke. His ears were pricked up, afraid that he would miss a single word.
When the other was done, Faradin was so excited that he couldn't wait to run back and sign up for the double combat tournament immediately.
After the communication was cut off, Boer was silent for a moment before asking Faradin, "Is Shadow X really that strong?"
Faradin's expression immediately turned incredibly serious, "He's very strong. I don't know how strong he really is, because I feel that he didn't use his full strength at all when he fought me. Also, I felt like I was being led by the nose from the beginning to the end. That last strike, just one strike alone, could've killed me at my peak."
After hearing Faradin's words, Boer laughed out loud, "That's good! Faradin, let's go meet Shadow X and Thunderstorm Knight. "
"Boss Boer, you're going too? Didn't the instructor say that you're going to fight Comos for the championship of the single combat tournament this year? " Although Faradin was very tempted by Boer's suggestion since Boer was the runner-up of last year's single combat tournament and his strength was there for all to see, and he had also gotten familiar with Boer's sparring sessions over the past half a year. Forming a pair to fight in the double combat tournament was definitely possible, but the instructor's words were in front of him, and he couldn't go back on his word.
"The instructor also said, 'Isn't the purpose of a combat platform to fight to your heart's content? What's the point of having so many false reputations?'"
Faradin pressed his fingers together and muttered inwardly, "The instructor's bullsh * t of false reputations are meant for us inside the Third Military Academy, but the false reputations outside the Third Military Academy are very important to them because those are related to their welfare. Otherwise, they'd punish us to run around the field naked."
Not long after the duo of Knight and Shadow X appeared on the double combat tournament name list, the Third Military Academy's Boer and Faradin duo brought everyone's attention to the double combat tournament once more.
Half an hour later, at almost the same time, the Second Military Academy's Ryan and Bonn duo, as well as the First Military Academy's Comos and Feng Haicao duo, set off the third climax of this term's double combat tournament.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this time's double combat tournament was filled with glittering stars.
Last term's double combat tournament champions, the Visby Brothers, Thunderstorm Knight and the much-anticipated Shadow X. Last term's second place in the single combat tournament, Boer and the Second Military Academy's rising seed Faradin, last term's fourth place Ryan and Bonn, who was rumored to be stronger than Ryan but had missed last year's tournament due to a mission, last term's single combat tournament champion Comos and Feng Haicao, who was rumored to also have missed last year's tournament due to a mission but was no weaker than Comos …
Looking at it this way, other than the Fourth Military Academy's Valente who shared second place with Boer in last year's single combat tournament, three of the top four contestants of last year's single combat tournament had appeared on the double combat tournament's name list.
The Sector Championship's platform went completely crazy. Since the top few of Sector C's four military academies were participating in the double combat tournament, the other academies naturally couldn't be left behind. Although from a strategic point of view, the best way would be to avoid a tournament where experts gathered and participate in another tournament, from a personal perspective, this time's double combat tournament held too much significance. They hadn't seen such a scene for many years, or at least in all the years that they knew of, there had never been a double combat tournament that could attract the top geniuses from all over the world. But this time was different. If they missed it, who knew how many years they would have to wait to encounter such a situation again. If they missed it, they would regret it. Since they didn't want to regret it, of course they had to sign up!
Because of the matter of signing up for the double combat tournament, the faces of every academy's higher-ups darkened. They couldn't stop the students from signing up even if they wanted to. Spittle flew everywhere, and using both carrot and stick, these little fellows still eagerly signed up. It truly infuriated the higher-ups of the academies.
The night of the registration deadline was a crazy night. Whether it was the electronic publication responsible for reporting or the students who didn't sign up due to their limited strength, everyone was so excited that they couldn't sleep well for the entire night.
On the other side, Silin who was about to sleep and rest and Knight who was still fighting on the Sector Championship platform were simultaneously pulled back to their senses by a fatal series of calls.
Silin pressed the accept button, "Where's Soulseeker?! You could've just dialed our numbers, but why the hell are you dialing all five communicators installed in the dormitory at the same time? Are you calling the police? "
"Silin, Knight, just you wait for me without any sense of loyalty. I'll return to the dormitory immediately. Don't fall asleep, I'll drag you out even if you fall asleep!!" Lung roared loudly from the other side of the communicator.
