Rankings

I've heard a little about the Jiu Zhengxuan.

He led a small civilian team, claiming to maintain order within the Experimental Zone.

Who is Qin Yiguan?

"A marginal member of the Youth Order Squad, does he need special annotation?"

"I've never heard of it. Have you?"

"I've never heard of it either."

In a corner of the audience, two China spectators had this conversation, and similar questions echoed in the minds of almost every audience member.

Zhan Shi seemed to have seen through everything, and chuckled to himself, "China is truly at its wit's end. Their starting lineup has been ruined, and they've resorted to sending out unknown substitutes in desperation... This game has become slightly more interesting, but not much."

The beautiful reporter Mu Yun, dressed in a pale yellow miniskirt, stared blankly at the boy in black on the screen. "It's him... Jiu Zhengxuan's assistant. What's wrong with the China government? Why would they send someone like this?"

Officer Wang, who is thousands of miles away.

He was also watching the game through virtual reality, smoking his favorite cigarette.

When Officer Wang saw the face of the boy in black, his body stiffened slightly, and the ash on his cigarette grew longer and longer.

After a long moment of stunned silence, Officer Wang suddenly stood up and said to his colleague, "Let's go to the scene!"

"Director Wang, what are you going to the scene for?!"

"Dispatch the police and collect the body!"

Inside the scene.

Long Huicheng turned around, "Long Lang, give me information about the Youth Order Squad, immediately!"

In just 30 seconds, detailed information was transmitted to Long Huicheng's personal AI.

"Jiu Zhengxuan, Fusion Rate 87%, Reality Enhancement - Black Room."

"This ability can darken the surrounding space and create a mobile clone centered on the user..."

Note: Jiu Zhengxuan's abilities were updated 26 days ago.

Long Huicheng silently thought to himself, his brows gradually furrowing, "87%, that's already a young genius, but... that's far from enough!"

As for information about Qin Yiguan.

"Unstaff member, no record available."

Long Huicheng gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and said, "Long Lang, bring them back, and at the same time explain to the organizing committee that China has withdrawn from the competition due to its own reasons."

At that very moment.

Jiu Zhengxuan walked slowly, brushing past Long Huicheng. He said in a low voice, "Old Commander Long, I have always regarded you as my mentor. I have observed all the virtual wars you have commanded, and you have said more than once..."

Jiu Zhengxuan looked at Long Huicheng's aged face, "The spirit of the Chinese army is: rather die in battle than not fight."

Upon hearing Long Huicheng slightly opened his eyes, his body stiffening on the spot.

But Jiu Zhengxuan didn't linger. He walked to the edge of the arena, faced the countless spectators, and loudly proclaimed, "Qin Yiguan and I are both China citizens, and both are under 20 years old. We have also registered through the standard procedures. May we begin the competition?"

There was a three-second silence.

"Sure!"

The young host quickly ignited his passion, "Welcome the China contestants, the Youth Order Squad, Captain Jiu Zhengxuan! And the Youth Order Squad, Qin Yiguan!"

The applause was thunderous!

Long Lang strode over to Long Huicheng's side, "Commander Long, this..."

Long Huicheng his head down, gritting his teeth, seemingly struggling internally. But after only two seconds, the old commander suddenly looked up, "Zheng Xuan, better to die in battle than not to fight!"

Long Huicheng stared at Jiu Zhengxuan's straight back, "I have to believe in him!"

"Long Lang, Han Ming!"

Long Huicheng slowly straightened his chest. "The Fusion Rate of the Zheng Xuan is 87%. Among the elites of various countries, this figure would probably only rank in the middle. However, it's not without a chance. Immediately notify the observation team, data analysis team, strategy team, and think tank to take their positions. Within two minutes, produce a precise report on the Jiu Zhengxuan ' capabilities. Within five minutes, provide at least three strategic recommendations. I want to provide the Jiu Zhengxuan with the most powerful backing in the world!"

His eyes lit up again when he saw Old Commander Long.

Long Lang and four-star general Han Ming instantly became highly motivated, "Yes!"

Ladies and gentlemen!

"The order of battles in this match can be described as both unreasonable and perfectly reasonable!"

The host held up a retro microphone, "Because the order of all battles is determined by the contestants themselves, in other words, this mechanism allows all participants to directly challenge their desired opponents! There's no need for group stages or semi-finals, and no one will regret missing out!"

"Of course, this competition format could also make a certain country a target of public criticism!"

"But there's no way around it, war is always cruel!"

"Nations that become the target of everyone's criticism must accept challenges one by one until they can no longer fight!"

At this point, the host glanced at the China side, revealing a hint of worry, as rumors were already flying everywhere.

"10 seconds left! Competitors from all countries can select their opponents using the device!"

The scene was completely silent, everyone eagerly anticipating which two forces would present the first showdown.

The host frowned slightly.

"10...9...8...7..."

"6...5...4...3...2...1, Start!"

In mid-air, the enormous void projection, spanning 3,000 square meters, began to shimmer with bright light.

Clang!

Clang!

A powerful metallic clang rang out, like two enormous iron swords clashing in mid-air!

' Island Nation VS China!'

' India vs. China!'

' Ou Country vs. China!'

' Great Eagle VS China!'

' North Korea VS China!'

All seven kingdoms versus China!

Even the host was stunned.

There have long been rumors that various countries are secretly joining forces to directly attack China, and only after China is defeated will they begin the real championship competition.

But the host didn't expect that they would actually do it this way, so blatantly and without any attempt to hide it!

Zhan Shi gazed at the large screen, slowly sipping a glass of red wine. "In the past few decades, in virtual warfare, without exception, all countries have been crushed by China. This pent-up resentment has been building up in the hearts of all nations for a long time. Now, with this opportunity to reshape the nature of warfare, everyone wants to vent their anger..."

Zhan Shi shook his head and smiled. "These people, all of China's starting players are gone, and now they only have a few substitutes, yet you still keep attacking them. Isn't that a bit too much?"

Immediately.

Zhan Shi turned around, his face instantly transforming into a fierce expression. "What's wrong with the technical team? So slow even to press the confirm button? According to the final results, Island Nation and India are the first and second challengers, and we're ranked third! You bunch of useless trash, by the time it's our turn, those two substitutes from China will both be dead!"

Snap!

Zhan Shi slammed his wine glass toward the technical team, furious, "A bunch of useless trash!"
