Chapter 75 Initial National Team
The World University Competition is a globally watched event, and this year's competition is being held in the Water City Guinness World Records.
Although this year's World University Competition will be held in June.
In fact, the first round of the World University Competition had already begun in March of this year.
Contestants from various countries began to travel from different directions to various training points around the world and participate in corresponding national pavilion challenges.
Ultimately, whoever completes several training points first and obtains the corresponding national seal will be able to participate in the Guinness World University Competition.
Furthermore, there is a limit to the number of countries that can participate in the World University Competition, which is limited to 233 countries worldwide.
In the end, only 32 countries will participate in this global event held every four years.
Therefore, this global experience is not only a test of strength, but also a competition of speed between countries.
After all, whoever completes the participation quota first will have one less of the thirty-two spots available, so naturally, the stronger and faster the better.
March 15th marks the date when China will call back its national server players. The national server team's training will continue until the 20th.
Because during the period between selecting students for the national server and the start of the training, the students will definitely train hard.
For example, someone like Mo Fan or Wu Tiao Wu who diligently cultivates or heals on Mount Hua.
……
At the Imperial Capital Airport, Gojo Satoru, blindfolded, leisurely stepped off the plane.
Since awakening, he has tried his best to suppress his abilities to reduce the burden on his soul, as the backlash from facing the ancient king was extremely severe.
According to Gojo Satoru's personal feeling, his combat power has decreased by at least 50%, and both his spatial magic and limitless spells have returned to a high-level level.
This is all because of the loss of precise control.
"Go!" Zhao Manyan waved to the white-haired Gojo Gosho not far away from the exit.
Upon learning that Gojo Satoru was coming today, Zhao Manyan came here specifically to pick him up from the airport.
"Your cultivation has improved very quickly." Wu Tiao Wu, blindfolded, easily walked up to Zhao Manyan.
Peak level 3 of intermediate-tier Light-type and peak level 3 of intermediate-tier Water-type; this guy was only level 3 before.
"What's this?" Zhao Manyan leaned closer and touched the black cloth, asking curiously.
"It was caused by Koto's injury before," Gojo Satoru said casually.
Seeing that Gojo Satoru didn't want to say more, Zhao Manyan didn't ask any further questions.
At the airport exit, Gojo Satoru chatted with Zhao Manyan for a few minutes before hailing a taxi to head to the Imperial Capital Academy for their meeting.
"Hey, wait a minute, Wu, Lao Zhao!"
Just as the two were about to get into the car, a familiar voice rang out from behind them.
"Didn't you go down the mountain a few days ago? Why are you only arriving now?" Gojo Satoru asked, somewhat surprised.
Mo Fan, carrying his bag, entered the taxi. Upon hearing Gojo Satoru's words, he gave an awkward laugh: "Ahem, something unexpected happened."
"Hey Mo Fan, I thought Wu was already slow to arrive, but you're even slower!" Zhao Manyan hadn't expected there to be such a procrastinator.
The three of them sat in the car and started chatting casually.
In short, the three of them hadn't talked together for half a year, although Mo Fan did most of the talking.
For example, after he left Mount Hua, he went to find his father and Xin Xia, only to find that his father had been kidnapped by people from the Parthenon to become a student. He then had a good talk with him about these things...
Gojo Satoru briefly explained how he was recovering from his injuries at Mount Hua.
The distance between Beijing Capital International Airport and Beijing Capital University is not too far.
The three of them soon arrived at the Imperial Capital Academy and went to the designated location.
There stood a group of young men and women, as well as five older monks.
Among the young men and women, Gojo Satoru recognized three familiar faces. The first was Ai Tutu, the captain of the National Team whom he had met at Pearl Academy before.
The other one is Nan Yu, the female military mage I met at the northern corner of Zhuoyuan.
The last one was Mu Ningxue from the capital, who exuded a cold aura.
I don't know anyone else.
"Who is the substitute Mo Fan?"
Suddenly, one of the old monks standing in front of the group of young students spoke up.
"Yes, that's me," Mo Fan replied, then casually walked towards his teammates.
"So you are Gojo Satoru?" one of the five old monks, with a tiger-striped forehead, asked coldly.
"Besides me, I don't think anyone else has this name," Gojo Satoru said with a grin.
"Hmph, your strength is not bad. I hope you can live up to those people's evaluation!" Tiger-striped Instructor said seriously.
"Oh," Gojo Satoru nodded and said.
It seems that Dean Xiao and the others have already spoken with the professors at the National Academy.
"Return to the team," Dean Songhe said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Gojo Satoru lazily walked between the substitutes Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan. He had no interest in making friends with these strangers.
"Can a blind person be a regular trainee?" There are bound to be some idiots among the trainees.
"Alright, now two more people have joined our team through connections, and together with those who relied on money before, three of us are now useless," a woman in the team said.
These words left Zhao Manyan extremely embarrassed.
"Old Zhao, you're not doing so well," Gojo Satoru said with a smile, nudging Zhao Manyan's shoulder.
Having suffered a wound to his soul, he has learned to remain calm and composed during this time, and besides, he also needs to give his mentor some face.
"Yeah, they're so unpopular." Mo Fan chimed in, joining in the fun.
"There's nothing we can do about it, we're just handsome and capable," Zhao Manyan boasted.
Seeing that his two brothers didn't care, he just started selling too.
"Everyone's here." The tiger-headed instructor walked over slowly, his gaze sweeping over the thirteen people.
The team consists of thirteen people: ten official members and three substitute members, namely Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, and Mu Ningxue.
"Actually, we could have set off earlier. These two are just dispensable characters," Guan Yu said casually.
Gojo Satoru chose to ignore it, but Mo Fan, after hearing this, gave the guy a special look.
"No one should make a sound while I'm speaking!" Tiger-headed instructor Feng Li said bluntly.
The fish immediately shut its mouth.
"Your ultimate goal is to participate in the Venice Water City National Palace Competition, which is the World University Competition."
This training exercise for all nations is not only to give you more practical experience and magical knowledge, but also to help you obtain a ticket to the battle for the Venetian capital.
"Nearly two hundred countries around the world are participating in this competition, and not every country is qualified to appear on the Venice water city stage..." Feng Li said firmly.
All five mentors gave them instructions on what to say.
This is just the initial National Team; it still needs to undergo a series of trials before it can truly become the National Team that represents the country in competitions!
The athletes from the National Team will only be able to showcase themselves to the world when the Venice Water Festival ceremony begins!
