Although Lung had never had the time to participate in the Sector Championship, he had always been paying attention to the happenings on the Sector Championship platform. Before this, he did not dare to confirm whether or not Shadow X was Cillin, but when Knight and Shadow X's team appeared on the registration list to participate in the double combat tournament, Lung knew that Shadow X must be that bastard Cillin. That was why he immediately dialed Silin and Knight's communicator numbers at the same time. Just in case, he dialed the other five public communicators in the dormitory at the same time, treating it as an alarm.
The moment Lung entered the dormitory, he saw Silin and Knight sitting in the living room with their legs crossed waiting for him with dark expressions. Judging from their expressions, if he did not give an explanation, he would probably have to sleep on the streets today.
Before coming, Lung had already planned everything out. First, he had to apologize and calm the other party's anger first.
"Pastry from a newly opened pastry shop. There are meat and fruit fillings, kept in a fresh-keeping box, still crispy. Oh, and two cups of hot milk tea. Eating pastry and drinking milk tea, hehe, not bad. "Lung handed Silin and Knight a cup of milk tea each, and then took out a cup for himself.
Based on Cillin's understanding of Lung, he definitely wouldn't have thought of buying milk tea. Even if he did, he would have bought alcohol instead. Adding other factors into the equation, there was an eighty to ninety percent chance that these two cups of milk tea had been gifted to Lung when he bought the shortbread. As for the third cup, it was probably Lung who had used his characteristics to shamelessly ask for it.
Seeing Silin and Knight start eating the pastry and milk tea, Lung relaxed a little. Now, he had to seize the initiative! Just as Knight was about to open his mouth while chewing on the pastry, Lung quickly put down his cup and reprimanded them righteously, "You guys didn't discuss such an important matter with me! Do you know that you're not fighting for a competition, but money! Money! "
Silin and Knight: "…"
Knight's mouth was still open, and he ignored the pastry crumbs that leaked out.
Lung turned on his microcomputer, opened it to a certain page, enlarged the screen, and pointed at it to explain, "There are also bets on the Sector Championship platform, officially organized!"
As he spoke, their communicators and the five public communicators in the dormitory rang at the same time.
Looking at the name displayed on the communicator, Silin facepalmed. Why did they all like to play this trick?
After the call was connected, Ci Jincheng's image appeared on the screen. He was still wearing his work clothes, and his workshop was behind him.
"As I thought, you guys are discussing a scheme!" Ci Jincheng said as if he had expected this.
"Isn't it impossible for your base to communicate with the outside world? Also, isn't Seven Lights unable to casually communicate with the outside world? "Lung asked.
Ci Jincheng said disdainfully, "That's for normal people, it's useless against me. What were you talking about just now? Start over again. "
"Alright, since everyone's here, I'll tell you all about my grand plan!" Lung cleared his throat and told them about the bet.
After listening, Knight said hesitantly, "But sometimes, it's not something we can control. For example, if we meet those people from the military academies, they'll fight very hard, because their battle results will affect the welfare of their instructors or instructors. If the welfare of the higher-ups is affected, those kids won't feel good either. They'll definitely fight with all their might, and if that's the case, we won't be able to control the time well."
"They haven't joined the League of Stars yet, right? Also, what are the welfare of their instructors and instructors? As far as I know, the military academies' instructors and instructors all have very high military ranks, and they definitely get a lot of money. "Lung was puzzled.
Knight shook his head and showed them with his fingers, "Sector C's military academies are affiliated to the League of Stars's military. They're a little different from the military academies of the other Sectors. Every student from Sector C is an absolute elite, not to mention those top students have been reserved by the garrisons since a long time ago. For example, First Military Academy's Feng Haichao, Second Military Academy's Bonn and the others had started carrying out missions a long time ago, so there was no need to worry about their future after graduation. However, some of the military academies' instructors and instructors are different.
There's a word called 'banishment'. They're all galactic army field officers, but some of them are in Sector A, B, C, some are transferred to the Ten Trade Sectors, and some are banished to the Thirteen Backward Sectors. As a soldier, are you willing to lead the troops to encircle and annihilate the galactic robbers and Sector rebellions, or are you willing to lead the troops to open up new wastelands? "
At the same time, Silin Helong had a look of realization on his face. So there were so many hidden meanings behind the 'welfare' the military academies spoke of.
"But I believe that Silin and Knight can take care of them." Ci Jincheng said confidently.
"Duh, I believe that too. Otherwise I wouldn't have abandoned my business over there and rushed over here overnight." Lung looked at Knight and Silin expectantly.
Knight rubbed his chin. Although he was frowning, the upturned corner of his lips could not hide his true thoughts, "This is a very challenging matter." However, he liked this kind of extremely challenging matter.
The trio looked at Silin. Silin slowly put down the cup in his hand, "There is a certain degree of difficulty."
Although he said so sharply, he still took out his card and passed it to Lung at the same time. Lung took it knowingly, "How much are we betting?"
"Everything. As long as I don't say anything, you can bet everything every time."
Lung swiped Silin's card reader across the card reader he carried with him. After looking at the number on it, his eyebrows rose, "Hmm, it looks like you're pretty confident."
Knight tossed his card over as well. "Bet it all on me too."
"Lung. I'll transfer the money to your card later. "Ci Jincheng also said from the other side.
Tonight, while the other students were either too excited to sleep or training through the night, the four of them conspired to make money in the dormitory. What a scumbag it was.
The next day, the first match list on the Sector Championship's platform had been released. The match allocation was randomly assigned by the system, and Silin and Knight's first match was against a pair of Prometheus Academy duo from Sector B. Their IDs were World Domination and Armies Breaker.
Judging from their pre-match training results, they had a winning rate of more than ninety percent. Moreover, both of them were A-rank genotypes. It made sense. Which contestant in the tournament didn't have some skill? Moreover, both World Domination and Armies Breaker were among the top fifty in last year's single combat tournament. After a year of hard work, they definitely weren't weak in terms of strength, at least not in Sector B.
Shadow X's first match was sure to be watched by a lot of people. Even those who were competing at the same time were prepared to end their matches as soon as possible to watch.
It was only the first round of matches, but the number of people watching Shadow X and Knight's match had already reached the peak of the top eight. When Shadow X's iconic generic robot appeared on the field, the audience boiled with excitement. This was the first time Shadow X had appeared on the field since he disappeared four days ago.
However, the audience was destined to be disappointed. In the first match, Shadow X crossed his arms and stood motionless at the side the moment he entered the field. Then, he watched the battle to the end. The entire match was won by Knight alone, and he didn't even use Thunderstorm Punch. He was still able to send the Prometheus duo flying in five minutes with ease. Of course, if he held back a little, the other party could've lasted another five minutes, or if Knight was a little more serious, he could've finished off the other party in two minutes. However, Lung's bet was five minutes.
Shadow X didn't fight in the first match, and Knight won one versus two. The second match was the same. The third, the fourth …
Gradually, some people couldn't sit still anymore. Damned system, can't you arrange a stronger opponent for them? It's been five matches, and Shadow X hasn't fought even once!
The few groups that were defeated by Knight wanted to cry. They were actually quite strong in the school …
Finally, under everyone's expectant gazes, the duo of Shadow X and Knight welcomed a special opponent. The opponent was not from a military academy, and the reason why they were called special was because one of them played with guns, and the other played with swords.
The tournament rules didn't forbid weapons, but they had to apply for it. If both sides accepted it, then there was no problem. It was obvious that Knight and Silin didn't refuse. In fact, they were quite looking forward to it.
Guns and knives? Interesting.
After five disappointing matches, the spectating students became excited once more. It was because Shadow X was definitely going to fight in this match.
They had only heard of Shadow X's strength and had never seen it with their own eyes. After all, Shadow X had only fought three times, and no one had recorded it. No one could imagine just how strong he was.
The time of Shadow X and Knight's match was different in different Sectors, different planets, or even different places on the same planet. However, being able to witness Shadow X fight with their own eyes was worth staying up all night!
