Chapter 399 Pre-Battle Interview! Rules and First Battle!

"Let us invite the top young beastmaster of Dragon Country, who has passed numerous tests and finally stood before the whole country and even the world..."

Rows of figures walked through the lighted corridor.

It was like being in the shaded corridor of a football stadium, with the gates open and Su Ping among the crowd, although he was not in the front or the back.

However, almost as soon as he walked out of the corridor and appeared in the audience, the cameras in the entire venue were pointed at him.

On the big screen at the top, his face with a faint smile appeared, attracting thunderous cheers and discussions from the entire conference hall.

"It's Su Ping! It's really him!"

"I've already said that I saw him at the Qiyuan shopping mall over there before. He was accompanied by a very pretty and familiar looking young lady! I even said hello to him, but unfortunately, I was rejected when I wanted to take a photo with him."

"So, the last incident was settled? Didn't that guy from Eagle Country do anything to Su Ping?"

"What can we do? After all, there were so many high-level beastmasters present at the time, how could anything go wrong?"

"Su Shen! You are my idol! The price of my origami figurine has increased fivefold because of you..."

"..."

Such a frenetic situation made all the contestants who were slowly gathering from all directions turn their heads and subconsciously look at the younger figure in the crowd.

Some are envious, some admire, and some are curious.

At the same time, the host standing on the high platform seemed to cross the space directly from the suspended stairs, and in one step, he arrived on the stage in the center of the largest arena in the four directions.

The four teams of contestants arrived and stood in position, forming a square matrix.

"Haha, it can be seen that the audience is very excited. I am equally excited. How about this? If I can hear your cheers again, I can ask a few questions to the contestants on behalf of the audience. How about that?"

Liu Xun spoke with a smile, and everyone understood immediately. The entire venue was filled with thunderous cheers and the illumination of countless spotlights. At this moment, it was as if they were at the center of the world.

In fact it is.

Liu Xun picked up the microphone and continued to laugh:
"It's hard to refuse such a kind invitation. In that case, I will find a few representatives of the contestants to interview them about their feelings at the moment, shall I?"

Then, the host, who was wearing a bright red long dress, walked towards Su Ping with a microphone.

However, what even the people present did not expect was that Liu Xun paused and stopped beside Su Ping, standing in front of Ye Zhou who looked stunned.

"Student Ye, can I call you classmate? As the top student of Magic City Senior College, what do you feel at this moment?"

"Forehead……"

After a brief pause, Ye Zhou was not the type of person who was afraid of the stage, and he quickly adjusted himself:

"It feels great. Being able to fight with beastmasters from all over the world is a great help to me!"

The official answer made Ye Zhou sweat a little. Interviews were of course small events, but they could not withstand the fixed gazes of the entire audience.

Some people have even started to curse the host, asking what he is doing.

For them, Su Ping was undoubtedly the most concerned and cared-for person in the whole country.

The interview should naturally be with Su Ping.

Who is this person we are interviewing now?
Outside of the Magic City, who knows who this Ye Zhou is?
So, at this time, Ye Zhou was really a little weak.

Liu Xun didn't seem to notice this and continued to ask:

"So what is Mr. Ye's target score for this final exam?"

Speaking of other things, Ye Zhou might be a little nervous, but when it comes to this, he smiled slightly:
“Naturally the first place!”

"Very good, then I wish classmate Ye Zhou to win the championship this time!"

Liu Xun put down the microphone, seemingly not caring at all about the dissatisfaction in the audience and on the comments.

He walked towards the next interviewer, who was none other than Chen Zhan from Imperial Capital College.

Although Chen Zhan is a seeded player from the imperial capital, and there are indeed more local audiences from the imperial capital who come to the scene.

But at this time, some people were obviously dissatisfied:
"What's wrong with Liu Xun? Shouldn't the interview ask me, Su Shen? What kind of little Karami is this?"

"Chen Zhan is a little Karami? Can you, a country bumpkin from another place, understand before calling him that?"

"Can you compete with Su Shen?"

"..."

The discussion above was getting louder and louder, but Liu Xun seemed not to hear it. The two of them continued to ask and answer questions. After answering the questions just now, Liu Xun finally came to Su Ping with the microphone.

The light fragrance is refreshing.

Su Ping thought to himself that the scent of this perfume must be secreted by a high-grade wood-type pet.

"Hello, Master Su. Do you mind if I call you that? I'm Liu Xun, the host of this event. Nice to meet you!"

Compared with Chen Zhan and Ye Zhou before, Liu Xun's opening remarks this time seemed a little different.

She even took the initiative to stretch out her white and tender little hand.

Su Ping was slightly stunned, then shook his head, but after reacting, he also stretched out his hand slightly and shook it.

Well, I can tell by the touch that it is well maintained, white, tender and smooth, and the nails are warm. It just feels a little itchy when I scratch the palm.

Qin Xiaoxue, who was not far away, looked over and glanced at the nationally renowned host in a long red dress.

Liu Xun didn't care at all, so she smiled and said:

"Shen Su, as an outstanding trainer, you are one of the youngest contestants in the competition. How do you feel and what do you think?"

"You must be very excited. Compared to the training of pets, having your own pets become powerful is undoubtedly a greater recognition and affirmation for trainers."

Su Ping answered in an official manner.

Liu Xun's problem is no different from everyone else's before him.

Even the question that everyone was most interested in, what happened after the live broadcast, which was also the question that everyone was concerned about, Liu Xun did not ask.

This host has a very good sense of proportion.

All I can say is that to be able to reach this position at such a young age, in addition to his background, his abilities are indeed sufficient.

What to say and what not to say, what to ask and what not to ask.

Liu Xun’s grasp of the situation is quite good.

From the beginning to the end, the main thread of the topic did not deviate from this professional assessment.

Except at the end.

After asking a few routine questions, Liu Xun blinked her beautiful eyes:

“It can be seen that everyone wants to know more about Su Shen.

I heard what some people in the audience said just now. I guess Su Shen heard some of it too, right?

Xun Er, as a media person who speaks for the general public, even if she risks being scolded by her superiors and accused of being unprofessional, she must ask Su Shen a personal question at this time, is that okay? "

At this point, the beautiful host acted pitiful and desperate, and in front of the national audience, she acted very smoothly without any burden.

Su Ping also found it a little funny, and then nodded: "I'll try my best."

Liu Xun's eyes lit up:
"At your age, Su Shen, with such achievements as a trainer, you probably don't have a girlfriend, right? I wonder what kind of girls you like? Xun'er wants to see if there is any chance for you to work hard..."

Su Ping blinked. Although it was obvious that this topic had nothing to do with the final exam, it did attract everyone's attention immediately.

The entire venue fell silent at this moment.

Even Qin Xiaoxue, who had been staring at Liu Xun indifferently not far away, held her breath and looked at Su Ping nervously.

Su Ping thought about it and said helplessly:

"I haven't really thought about this. Currently, my energy is focused on pet training, but..."

Su Ping glanced at Qin Xiaoxue who was not far away, and after thinking for a while, he said:
"I don't have much experience getting along with girls, so it's easier and more reassuring to get along with girls who are relatively generous and straightforward."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Xiaoxue's eyes lit up and her beautiful narrow eyes narrowed.

But Liu Xun in front of him sighed:

"I see. My good sisters all heard it before the live broadcast. This is exclusive news! It seems that I have to change my style in the future."

Joking aside, a qualified host must be able to control himself.

"Okay, thank you Su Shen, Ye Zhou and Chen Zhan for the questions and answers. The time for the first round of the final examination is relatively tight, so Xun'er will not waste any more time. Next, let's enter the random draw stage for the first battle!

After the draw, the contestants will be arranged in order and enter the corresponding numbered arena.
Now, the draw begins!"

As the words fell, Liu Xun's outstretched hand disappeared, and on the big screen, more than two hundred names began to be quickly combined.

In just three seconds, the confused names were instantly formed into a team.

The sequence of teams of two appeared completely across the big screen.

No wonder there are so many arenas in this imperial sports stadium?

Su Ping exhaled, and soon found his name.

The next moment, a reminder sounded from the participating watches:

"Contestant Su Ping, please rush to Arena No. 31 and prepare for your first round of beast taming battle! Fight against Zhou Yuan, the fifth place contestant from Minyue Province.

If you don't arrive at the ring within fifteen minutes, you will be deemed to have forfeited! Please go as soon as possible."

At some point, guides led the referees here. Su Ping waved to Ye Zhou, Qin Xiaoxue, and Dong Muxuan, who had not been in contact with him this time.
Then he followed the guide, got on the car, and came to the No. 31 ring.

These arenas do not look big from the audience's perspective and from a bird's-eye view, but in fact, almost every one of them is larger than the fighting arena in the Heart of All Spirits, and each one is almost thousands or even tens of thousands of square meters in size.

This size is more than enough for a commander-level beastmaster.

Coupled with the technology of mechanical virtualization, these arenas can even be extended in space without affecting the size of the actual space.

"Master Su, this is it! I will be the referee for stage 31. My name is Li Ran."

Is this still a referee?
Su Ping raised his eyebrows, and then stepped onto the stage with the smiling man.

Then, another contestant arrived.

This is a slightly plump young man wearing round glasses, with a determined light flashing in his small eyes.

His own realm has also reached the peak of leadership.

Obviously, Zhou Yuan already knew who his opponent was long before arriving at the arena.

At this moment, there is not even a hint of nervousness!
Although the match had not started yet, Su Ping narrowed his eyes slightly at the calm look and posture as he stepped onto the stage.

He is a master!

But think about it, those who can appear here are all top beastmasters selected from various provinces. Maybe they are not ranked high in the provincial examination, but it does not mean that they are not good in one-on-one!
There is even a high probability of an unexpected upset.

Su Ping did not dare to underestimate it.

Undoubtedly, Su Ping's battle attracted the attention of most people.

Even the main camera in the small area of ​​the audience seats was aimed at Arena No. 31 where Su Ping was.

Su Ping exhaled. He was actually a little nervous, after all, it was his first time to compete in a formal competition on the ring.

At this moment, the referee named Li Ran was already standing on the high mechanical controller beside the ring and spoke into the microphone:

"Before the battle begins, let me announce the rules of the arena duel. First of all, the use of potions is not allowed during the battle.

After the battle, you can use it during rest, but no more than five potions are allowed in total. You are not allowed to use any mechanical weapons except mechanical pets.

At the same time, after the battle is over, a professional referee will lead the loser to the next ring to fight, and the winner of the battle can stay in the ring as the defending champion.

The arena host can actively select a simulated arena to simulate the arena environment! The arena environment will not affect the energy type and concentration. It only serves as the environment itself.

But please note that the simulated arena environment is similar to a high-altitude environment. Unless you have a flying pet, once you fall, it will be considered a loss of combat effectiveness or even complete elimination from an environmental perspective.

Therefore, the arena environment is relatively important.

Of course, the time spent on the way to the ring is not counted as rest time, but if you fail to get to the ring within a certain period of time, it will be regarded as a forfeit.

Only after the battle officially begins can both sides summon pets, and the summoned pets cannot use charging skills in advance.

At the same time, the most basic condition for determining victory or defeat is that one party's pet loses all combat effectiveness, which is considered a failure.

Second, if the Beastmaster falls out of the simulated arena environment, it will be considered a failure.

Third, voluntarily surrendering is also considered a failure. Do you understand?"

After getting the affirmation from the two, Li Ran nodded.

"Very good, because this is the first round of battle, so the ring environment simulation will be randomly drawn. Let's start drawing a random ring battle environment!"

"Drawing completed! The arena mechanical simulation environment is the 'Lake Heart Island'. Please note! The Lake Heart Island environment is 2,400 square meters in size, of which 1,000 square meters is the internal island arena environment.

One thousand four hundred square meters is the lake environment. Once you enter the lake, you will enter a real underwater simulation. The mechanical simulation will fully detect the status of the beastmaster and the pet...

The countdown to the match starts now with ten seconds..."

Li Ran's reminder indicated that the battle on Su Ping's side was about to begin.

At the same time, all the viewers couldn't help but feel nervous, and looked at the two people present:
"Wow, this little fat guy doesn't seem to be panicked at all when facing Su Shen?"

"Nonsense, how many of those who can come here are afraid of the stage? We are all chosen by heaven, all talented beast masters, who is afraid of who?"

"I hope Zhou Yuan can pull off an upset, hehe~"

"The water environment, this Zhou Yuan seems to be in Minyue Province? It's next to the sea."

"The environment is not favorable to Su Shen!"

Countless viewers in the auditorium and in front of the live TV were talking about it.

And obviously, in such a situation, there really seemed to be some twists and turns and accidents that might happen?

The countdown ended instantly.

Su Ping, who was able to move, summoned Xiaoqing and Qianyi immediately. The latter directly entered the state of Five Elements Rotation under Su Ping's command.

However, Zhou Yuan, the first challenger that everyone had high hopes for, made a move that no one expected.

Zhou Yuan, the seemingly extraordinary genius beastmaster, raised his hand:

"Um, referee, I surrender!"
