Chapter 1147 - 695: High-Stakes Gamble, Journey, and National Destiny Showdown! (Part 2)
A giant gold and silver woven bowl, with intertwined lines resembling branches, gleamed with a metallic luster under the sunlight, exuding luxury and a sense of strength.That is the venue for the finals, the world’s number one martial arts competition center—
[Phoenix Nest]!
Wow—
The crowd who came with him took their seats around the large arc-shaped conference table.
meng Chuan also stopped looking out the window, sensed around, found his name on the table, and walked over to sit down.
Beside him were the other five Overlords, excluding himself.
The competition committee seemed to know he had some tension with Liao Huo, placing them on either side with the other four in between...
"Hello, everyone, I’m Zhou Yun."
At the conference table, besides the personnel from the Great Chu’s top hundred elite team emerging from the Beijing competition, there was only one man and one woman left.
The identity of the woman needs no further explanation, [Huaihai Dragon King · Cui Yunyu].
The man who spoke was the chief promotion officer of the competition, Lord Zhou Yun.
Zhou Yun continued to smile:
"Congratulations to all of you for becoming the top 100 young martial arts experts of this era in Great Chu. I also thank you for stepping forward to defend national honor and protect national resources in the upcoming finals."
"Protect national resources?"
Including Meng Chuan, everyone looked puzzled, not understanding the last part of Lord Zhou’s statement.
Sitting beside him, Cui Yunyu finally spoke slowly and straightforwardly:
"Our country and Meili Jian are wagering on the outcome of this competition, so your performance will affect the precious resources within the [Whispers of the Mountains] Demon Nest.
Meili Jian is ambitiously eyeing the Whispers of the Mountains, even wagering three complete seventh-grade Celestial Demon bodies and several pieces of cutting-edge Western cellular research technology as stakes.
However, our country also needs these things from Meili Jian and trusts in your strength.
Therefore, the heavy burden falls on all of your shoulders this time."
In matters of state, no one spoke.
While processing what the Dragon King said internally, they listened to Zhou Yun continue:
"To thank you for your contributions, besides the regular competition rewards, we will provide additional special contribution subsidies based on your actual competition contributions.
I can promise that as long as Great Chu wins, even the person with the smallest contribution will receive five hundred special contribution points!
The highest contributor, the one who will secure the decisive victory in the finals, will receive special resources from the Dragon Realm as a reward.
The Dragon King and I can assure you that its value is no less than that of a Sixth-Grade Celestial King Divine Weapon, and if you wish, you can exchange it for one!"
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed abruptly, and their thoughts stirred instantly.
What could be as valuable as a Celestial King Divine Weapon!
It’s a Celestial King Divine Weapon!
Even in the Tao and Buddhist sects, in a Special Martial Arts University, it would be regarded as a "School’s Treasure"!
Moreover, according to Master Zhou Yun, the mysterious item from the alien dragon is said to be even more precious than such top-grade divine weapons...
What exactly is it?
Thinking of this, everyone became faintly excited.
Even though most understood that this mysterious item was out of their reach, it still made them a bit passionate...
Besides, even if you "win while lying down," you still get at least five hundred special contribution points!
The country is indeed making a big investment...
Meanwhile, Meng Chuan was also secretly amazed hearing the words "comparable to the Sixth-Grade Celestial King Divine Weapon."
The Sixth-Grade Celestial King Divine Weapon has a special contribution section in the Armory where a weapon has been lying...
That’s the [Dawn Divine Sword] with an exchange price of up to fifty thousand special contribution points!
Fifty thousand is an outrageous amount of special contribution points unless defeating a sixth-grade Celestial Demon’s commander.
And here are alien resources that exceed even fifty thousand special contribution points in value...
Even Meng Chuan felt some anticipation.
His fellow five Overlords had eyes filled with fighting spirit and were determined to obtain this "mysterious item."
For a moment, the grand conference room was filled with a fighting spirit.
Cui Yunyu was very pleased to see this scene.
Holding the meeting was precisely for such an effect.
As the atmosphere in the room gradually calmed down, a competitor couldn’t hold back and quickly asked:
"Dragon King, Lord Zhou, may I ask how the country and Meili Jian are specifically determining the winner?"
He thought in his mind, surely it can’t be whoever gets the championship means their country wins...
Then wouldn’t everyone else be just "winning by lying down," and how would contributions be differentiated?
Upon these words, everyone’s eyes revealed a hint of expectation.
This opportunity is too rare, and no one wants to settle for the lowest level of contribution reward from the start.
Even if the "mysterious gift" isn’t for them as Three-Limit Masters, they still want to strive for more special contribution points!
Cui Yunyu smiled and said:
"Everyone’s very motivated, which is good, keep it up!
As for how we determine who outperforms Meili Jian, I was just about to discuss it with you, and it also relates to the final system of this competition.
This final, determined by the countries’ competition committees’ vote, will use the [Group Victory Point System].
The country where the competitors are from forms a group, accumulating victory points from individual matches within it, adding up the points to calculate the total group victory points, determining the national standings by this method.
The wager between us and Meili Jian will be determined by the relative number of group victory points, and your contribution ranking will also be decided by the victory points one collects."
"Simply put, the higher your individual victory points, the more group victory points are contributed, making each victory point extremely precious. It is not just an individual’s matter, but requires everyone’s joint effort.
