I Have A Game Clone Chapter 145

145 The Campus Competition Begins

After Ning Shi's consciousness returned to his body, he accepted the memories of the system's hack for the past two days and found that he was basically cultivating and teaching his three disciples. Nothing special happened.

He heaved a sigh of relief.

“It seems like I'm not a pervert by nature…”

Ning Shi consoled himself and prepared to go out.

Today was the opening day of the Awakeners' Campus Competition.

There was a total of 18 Awakener Schools in Donglin City. The participating students, teachers, and logistics personnel would have to gather at the Donglin Stadium first to hold the opening ceremony.

Ning Shi didn't do anything special this time. Instead, he got on the school bus with the ten students and went there together.

As soon as he got into the car, he saw Luo Yao pouting and looking angry.

Seeing that Ning Shi had arrived, Luo Yao handed the newspaper in her hand to him.

Nowadays, there were very few people who read newspapers, but schools and institutions still retained the tradition of subscribed newspapers.

Ning Shi took the newspaper. It was Donglin Morning Post, one of the most influential traditional media in Donglin City.

After the rise of new media, Donglin Morning Post had a keen sense. Not only did it set up a news site immediately, but it also started video news and live news. The content of the Donglin Morning Post also advanced with the times and added a lot of interesting internet content.

Therefore, the influence of Donglin Morning Post was still not to be underestimated. It had a wide range of audiences, covering the middle-aged, elderly, and youth.

“The Donglin City Campus Awakeners' Competition begins today!”

This was the front page of the Donglin Morning Post. The report introduced the rules of the Campus Awakeners' Competition.

In order to match the World Youth Awakeners' Competition, the rules of the Yunmeng Kingdom's Campus Awakeners' Competition were the same as the world competition. They would both use one-on-one battles.

Each school could have 10 team members, and all 10 of them could go on stage. However, in each match, the school could only send three students on stage. Once all three students were defeated, the match would be lost.

The specific arrangement of the troops would be decided by the leading teacher before the start of the competition.

As long as a team member was not defeated, they could continue to fight until all the other team members were defeated.

Therefore, there was a possibility of a 1v3 in this game.

It had to be said that the morning newspaper's reporters and editors had good writing skills. They were able to make the boring rules of the game lively and interesting.

After reading the rules, Ning Shi saw the front page news under the headlines.

Donglin City's school of the awakener's strength analysis and prediction.

In the analysis, the strength of Donglin City's 18 schools was divided into three grades. The names of the grades were also interesting. The first grade was the top student, the second grade was the outstanding student, and the third grade was the last student.

The first one to be introduced was Donglin City's First Awakener School. Compared to Ning Shi's school, it was missing the word strength.

The Donglin Morning Post was very attentive in reporting on him. The reporter visited the team of Donglin City's First Awakener School and listed the training situation of the team and the strength assessment of the team members clearly.

The report concluded, “Donglin City's First Awakener School is the strongest Awakener School in Donglin City. The school team has two Tier 3 awakeners and eight Tier 2 awakeners. In just two months, the ability to improve the students' strength to such an extent showed the school's strength and teaching standard.

“He's the top student in Donglin City's First Awakener School.”

Reading this, Ning Shi understood the reason why the Donglin Morning Post did this. It was to enhance the atmosphere of the Campus Awakeners' Competition, to stir up a topic, and attract the audience.

What the audience loved the most was ranking. Who was strong and who was weak would always be the focus of debate.

As he continued to read, he finally found the reason for Luo Yao's anger. The Morning Post introduced Donglin City's First Awakener School at the end, and there was a final comment.

“Donglin City's First Strength Awakener School is a specialized school for strength-type awakeners. Although Principal Ning Shi has been praised by many, his strength as a Tier 8 awakener is not the best among the many principals.

“Moreover, in the National Awakeners' Competition that had just ended, the strength-type awakeners did not do well. None of them managed to enter the top 400 and participate in the national competition in Central City.

“For this year's Campus Awakeners' Competition, the strength ranking of Donglin City's First Strength Awakener School was set as the third tier: For them, this competition should be focused on learning and training.”

The teachers leading the school team are the Taoist priest Jue Chen of Wudang and the swordsmanship Master Duan Qixun. Ning Shi asked them, “Did Donglin Morning Post come to our school for an interview?”

The two of them shook their heads.

Ning Shi was speechless. This reporter probably thought that strength-type awakeners were at the bottom and didn't even bother interviewing them. He directly sentenced Ning Shi's school to death.

Not only was his strength dropped to the third tier, which was the weakest, but he was also the last in the introduction.

He was clearly telling the audience that Donglin City's First Strength Awakener School was the weakest in the city.

Ning Shi smiled. He was used to touching Snow Fog's head in the game, so he subconsciously touched Luo Yao's head and said, “Strength and respect come from fighting. Today, you're the first to go on stage. Defeat your opponent and let the audience see the power of a strength-type awakener”

Feeling Ning Shi's big hand, Luo Yao blushed and shouted, “Don't worry, master. I'll definitely do my best and show off my skills!”

Upon hearing Luo Yao's words, Taoist priest Jue Chen shook his head and silently mourned for Luo Yao's opponent today.

He didn't know how Principal Ning Shi had taught her, but Luo Yao not only had strange strength, but her fist technique was also exquisite, and her swordsmanship had the style of a master.

Even Taoist priest Jue Chen himself, after practicing the extreme body forging method and relying on his decades of accumulation, had made great progress in his cultivation, and could only fight evenly with Luo Yao.

As they chatted, the bus arrived at the stadium.

Just like the previous National Awakeners' Competition, there were many media and public figures present today.

There were even more spectators and media present at today's campus competition than at the last National Awakeners' Competition.

The stadium was filled with people, and the entire Donglin Stadium was packed with people.

Jiang Bichao's blood boiled when he saw the formation. This was the stage he had been looking forward to.

He looked around and asked Ning Shi, “Master, there are more media and audience members here today than in the National Awakeners' Competition. The students' competition level is not as high as that of the National Awakeners' Competition. Why is this happening?”

Ning Shi replied, “There should be three reasons. The first is that there are two venues for the National Awakeners' Competition in Donglin City, so the flow of people is more scattered. The campus competition is held in the Donglin Stadium, so the people are more concentrated.

“The second reason is that after the National Awakeners' Competition, there has been a large number of fans for the competition. The audience's enthusiasm for the competition has increased. The officials have also further accumulated experience and equipment for organizing competitions. Look at the stadium, it has obviously been expanded and modified.

“Last but not least, students represent the future and hope. Don't underestimate your own influence. Compared to those who have already achieved success and fame, everyone prefers to see students grow step by step. The topic and story of the Campus Awakeners' Competition is much more interesting than the National Awakeners' Competition.

“Moreover, it is fine if your strength is low. There are more and more awakened ones now. Most of them are not very powerful. The majority of the audience are ordinary people or low-level awakened ones. Your low strength will make them feel more immersed.”

When Ning Shi finished speaking, a wave of enthusiastic cheers rang out at the scene.

Ning Shi turned his head and saw that the team from Donglin City's First Awakener School had entered the arena.

The Morning Post was not the only media that reported on the Campus Awakeners' Competition. Almost all the media in Donglin City reported on the competition from all directions.

Under such circumstances, the number one Awakener School, as the first seed of the competition, received a terrible amount of exposure.

The competition hadn't started yet, but the members of their school team had already become small stars.

Especially the two people in the lead, Yan Guangxun, and Shan Shaohang.

They were praised by the media as the twin stars of the First Awakener School, the seed players who had achieved good results in the National Awakeners' Campus Competition, and the focus of the national team selection.

Walking in front of the team, the two of them waved to the audience as if they had already won the game.

Luo Yao, Jiang Bichao, and Zong Shangren, the three younger students, gritted their teeth when they saw that no one was paying attention to them when they entered the venue and that the students from the First Awakener School were clapping thunderously when they entered the venue. Their fighting spirit was suddenly aroused.

Miao Xinyue, on the other hand, was much calmer. She was already 20 years old, and her family environment had been tough since she was young, so her mind had long matured.

Even though they were affected by the enthusiastic atmosphere of the stadium, they were not angry because they were looked down on.

She just stood quietly beside Ning Shi and stared at him.

Although she was hiding something, the affection in her eyes was still obvious. Ning Shi also felt it, so he asked the game system.

“Has there been any unusual behavior with Miao Xinyue's skill impartation records these few days?”

The system's answer was simple.

[ It starts with emotion but ends with courtesy. ]

Ning Shi was speechless.
