mysterious forerunner

Chapter 257 Champion Rewards
Guan, who was unanimously favored before the game, went two-on-one with He Xu, and was slapped on the ground by Zhang as soon as they met...

A literal slap to the ground.

The terrifying crushing in the rank made Guan Xuanbai really feel like he took the initiative to send his own head up to Zhang Qingxiang for a photo.

He would have slapped him on the face, but Zhang Qingxiang saved some face for Guan Xuanbai in order to unite and cut him off with a slap on the neck.

Guan Xuanbai once defeated Crawford. Even if Crawford's mental attributes are too poor and he is stronger, he loses the game; but comparing the two: Even if Crawford can defeat Guan Xuanbai, he will still have to spend a lot of effort.

No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for Crawford to defeat Zhang Qingxiang.

"...It turns out that there are two strong men hiding in the Chinese delegation who can defeat Crawford!"

"An arrogant man like Crawford was once recognized by us as the strongest?"

"But we are indeed no match for him..."

Everyone was silent. Looking at Zhang who was about to come down from the ring, the awe in his expression became even more intense.

Now comparing Crawford and Zhang together, Crawford really has no merit.

Not only did he not dare to show it, he also deliberately tried to make friends with Crawford.

Vegefina remembered that when she was in China, the first person she wanted to invite was Zhang.

Zhang Qingxiang walked down from the ring, and the audience consciously made way for him.

Give it a try, maybe the size is right for you!

After going round and round, it turns out that the first choice is the most correct!
Vegafina looked up to the sky and sighed: No wonder people never forget their first love!
Jolina was particularly unconvinced.

Not two, but three? !

Although He Xu seems to be slightly inferior to Guan Xuanbai, He Xu's path to promotion is to continuously defeat strong enemies!
Since Guan Xuanbai can defeat Crawford without being favored, why and how could he not have a chance?

No one is a masochist at heart, and of course everyone is unhappy. But there is no way, I can't stand others but I can't kill them.

Everyone disliked Crawford, but were afraid to show it.

In the private room upstairs, Vegafina and Jolina were filled with regret.

Why don't you give me a chance?

But I know I'm a good girl!

If you think about it carefully, it seems that this is really possible.

"Terrible!" Everyone said secretly in their hearts.

As for Zhang Qingxiang, if you don't like it, I can kill you - that's really enviable.

Guan Xuanbai was defeated by Crawford, and he was smart enough to change the candidate to Crawford for the second time.

As a result, when I got to the Nancheng branch and had a meeting with Guan Xuanbai, I thought I was smart and changed the candidate to Guan Xuanbai.

Zhang, why don’t you even look at me?
I was ordered to seduce you, even though my motives were a little bit impure, even though my style might be a little bolder, even though I was a little reluctant at the time, thinking that you were my second choice after Crawford...

Suddenly someone said quietly: "Do you think the three members of the Chinese delegation have the strength to defeat Crawford?"

……

It was only then that the four referees on the stage reacted and hurriedly shouted: "Wait a moment, your Excellency, there is still the championship award ceremony."

The four of them thought it would be a long-lasting melee... It ended so quickly, and they were stunned.

Zhang Qingxiang doesn't care about championship trophies.

In fact, Zhang Qingxiang's thinking at this time did not pay attention to this championship because of his "preconceived ideas."

The first World Professionals Athletic Conference was just a grassroots team.

No one in the previous life could remember who the champion was this time.

But in fact, this life is completely different. In the future, it can be foreseen that the three contestants from China will become legendary figures with far-reaching reputation among professionals.

It's really because the game is so dramatic.

And this time, North Americans are also participating.

Zhang Qingxiang is undoubtedly the most legendary one.

When the referee shouted, Zhang Qingxiang suddenly remembered: There should be bonuses for the first, second and third place, right?
Although your old Europa is in decline and getting worse every year, you can't save this kind of bonus, right?

It’s not for myself. I’ve always regarded money as dirt.

I mainly want to help Guan Xuanbai and ask He Xu. After all, they both lost and suffered heavy physical and mental blows. The bonus was a small consolation for them.

So Zhang Qingxiang returned to the ring.

Guan Xuanbai and He Xu were already awake, and Zhang Qingxiang acted in a measured manner.

The two also knew that the director was careful in his actions - which made them even more desperate. You really have a good grasp of it. There is a huge gap in strength between you and the director.

The two of them glanced at Zhang Qingxiang resentfully, refused to shake hands with the director in a friendly manner, and left angrily.

With so many people watching, we dare not give you face!
You just slapped us down and didn't leave us any face at all!
Not only that, He Xu jumped back to the box and immediately told Bai Qian: "Do you care about this?"

"He hasn't even gotten along with you yet, yet he dares to hit your brother?"

"If you really get married from now on, what's the point?!"

"I'm telling you, girls shouldn't be too weak. If you are bullied in the future, you have to stand up for us as family members..." He shouted for a long time, but found that Bai Qian didn't listen at all. With a pair of smiling eyes, he just Staring at Zhang Qingxiang on the ring, he was obviously very proud.

"Ouch!" How can he be so angry that he stomps his feet and is so angry that he doesn't fight?

Zhang Qingxiang waited on the ring for a while, but no one from the organizing committee came to present the award. The audience below also wondered what was going on, so they started talking about it.

The referees were also puzzled. The trophy had been prepared a long time ago. The referee quickly went down and asked the league leader what was going on.

The leader and the secretary-general are having fun.

The secretary-general faithfully carried out the order of the alliance leader and worked hard to form a good relationship with Guan Xuanbai, so he specially engraved the three words "Guan Xuanbai" in Chinese in a very large size.

The trophy does not have a spare base...

Now remove Guan Xuanbai's name and change it to Zhang Qingxiang, even a fool can see it.

The referee rushed in hurriedly: "What's going on? Send the trophy out quickly..."

The secretary-general quietly told the matter, and the referee slapped his forehead: "No need for trophies, just issue certificates directly."

"But for such a grand competition, it seems too shabby to only have a certificate." The secretary-general said quietly.

The referee had an idea: "Increase the reward. When issuing certificates, directly announcing the winner's prize can minimize the negative impact."

The leader and the secretary-general looked at each other, this is a solution.

When Vegafina originally sent out the invitation, the rewards for the first, second and third place were not clearly determined.

After the game started and Crawford's participation was confirmed, the organizers announced the amount of the reward.

The winner will receive 5 million euros, the runner-up will receive 3 million euros, and the third runner-up will receive 1 million euros.

It is only the early stage of extensive practice, and for professionals, this amount is not low.

The original championship prize was only about two million, and the alliance leader and others were purely trying to please Crawford.

Five million now seemed not to be "sincere" enough. The leader gritted his teeth and made a decisive decision: "Add another two million!"

The leader and secretary-general looked pained.

The budget for this session of the conference has been prepared long ago, and the state will not add any additional budget - especially because the budget increase caused by a simple mistake by the two people is even less likely to be approved.

In the original budget, the costs of various venues, materials, and labor were all inflated.

The difference in price belongs to the leader and the secretary-general.

The two million euros temporarily added to the championship can only be squeezed out from the "price difference".

This is all my money! The leader's heart is bleeding.

Am I easy? After working so hard to organize such a competition, working from dawn to dusk for more than half a month, all that ended up in my pocket was only a measly 8 million euros!

Now deduct two million, he is a major champion, but he just came to play a few games, and he actually won more than me!
Where is the law of heaven?

"Let's go out together to present awards to the champions and announce the prize money."

As expected, there was only a certificate but no trophy, and the audience was in an uproar. But immediately after the leader announced that the bonus amount had been increased to 7 million euros, everyone was envious. The trophy was not important, and the extra 2 million euros were given. , enough to buy a solid gold trophy.

Zhang Qingxiang is really short of money.

The side effect of several secret items is to pay "salary". With these seven million, I can straighten my back a little in front of Uncle Ye in the future.

But Zhang Qingxiang didn't particularly care about this. Even in today's final, Zhang Qingxiang played casually. There are several purposes for participating in this competition. The first is to obtain [Inspired Person], the second is to understand the overall level of practitioners around the world in this era, and the third is to have close contact with North American professionals for half a year. After that special mysterious scene in North America, make some preparations in advance.

The fourth is to return the [Emperor’s Half Face] to its original owner!
Now it's just the last one.

What's more troublesome now is that he is an unfamiliar person in this country, and Crawford is still in the hospital. Zhang Qingxiang doesn't know which hospital he is in.

"Are we going to sacrifice our appearance and ask Qiao Linna for information?" Zhang Qingxiang muttered to himself, of course he was not happy with it.

Thinking of Qiao Linna's style in the previous life, Zhang Qingxiang got goosebumps all over his body.

"There is another way. Talk to Hughes, make some insinuations, and see if you can ask."

Zhang Qingxiang and Hughes felt a bit like they didn't know each other before.

Hughes has a trustworthy character and high moral standards. In his previous life, he was the one with the best overall view among high-level professionals in North America.

In the face of mystery, he is willing to cooperate globally.

In the past few days, he had watched every one of Zhang Qingxiang's games. Zhang Qingxiang would chat with him for a few words every time, and the two formed an initial friendship.

But Hughes was shrewd and capable, so he asked him for information himself, and then something happened to Crawford—Hughes could immediately guess that he had done it.

Hughes was afraid that breaking off relations with him would seriously affect his future plans.

Zhang Qingxiang thought hard for a while, and suddenly he caught sight of Guan Xuanbai from the corner of his eye. He suddenly had an idea, gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and decided to risk his life to become the future number one person in the world.

"I don't want to get in touch with Qiaolin, but Xiaoguan can get in touch with Vegafina!"

Let Guan Xuanbai sacrifice color, this is a clever plan that kills two birds with one stone!

He can get information about Crawford, and Guan Xuanbai will be despised by Bai Qian because of his involvement with Vegefina, so he might also get a new joke.

Since everyone has a bright future, I won't mind making a small sacrifice compared to Xiaoguan.

We will all remember your achievements!
