I really don't want to be a hero

Chapter 18
After sitting in the car for an unknown amount of time, the hotel in the bustling area finally arrived.

Squares of different sizes and heights divide the orange lights, making the ten-storey hotel building look warm and soft.

Gu Mian pulled the two girls who couldn't open their eyes even more to get out of the car, and first saw the word "Guan Ting" on the boulder in front of the hotel, which was the name of the designated hotel for this preliminaries.

Surrounded by the darker vegetation in the night, it gives people a sense of tranquility.

But in an instant, this silence was completely destroyed.

"Hey, isn't this our famous Fengmian Blade? Why, the young genius also lives in the same hotel as us?"

Gu Mian looked over coldly, and saw a few young men and women who had just gotten off the Bentley standing beside them. The young man in the lead had combed his comb hair up high. The mocking words just came from his mouth, which attracted a lot of attention. The group of people burst into laughter.

Zhao Qiubai looked at Gu Mian with questioning eyes, and Duanmulian and Su Muruo also regained consciousness a little and were able to stand firm on their own.

Gu Mian shook her head at the uncle, signaling that she doesn't care, then ignored it, and walked towards the hotel door first.

But an indifferent voice came into Jiguantou's ears clearly: "You are defeated."

"You! What did you say?" The head of the chicken comb was instantly irritated, as if he was about to jump up in anger, pointing at Gu Mian who was gradually going away, he said angrily: "I tell you, last time I lost to Gu Mian because of carelessness. For you, you'd better pray that you don't meet me this time, or I won't make it possible for you to go to the World Championship."

Gu Mian turned her head to look at him, her eyes were full of jokes: "Is it like you last time?"

Ji Guantou's face was livid, he gritted his teeth and pulled out the saber from his waist with a "clang", as if preparing to fight Gu Mian desperately.

Several of his companions "judged the situation" and quickly stopped him, hugging his waist and legs.

"Don't be impulsive, Hu Ying, let's see the truth on the field."

"Brother Ying, private fights are not allowed in the hotel, and you will be disqualified from the competition."

"That's right Brother Ying, you have prepared such a unique move for him for so long, isn't it just to make a big splash in the competition?"

Under the persuasion of everyone, the cockscomb head named Hu Ying was "forced" to insert the sword back into the scabbard, and spat at the back of Gu Mian who had already gone away: "Let him be arrogant for a while, wait for the competition In the beginning, I stomped him underfoot in front of a world audience."

Extraordinary people's hearing is not much better than ordinary people, and Gu Mian couldn't hear what Hu Ying behind him was saying, but Su Muruo, who was awake, asked, "Did you have any hatred before, he seems to hate you very much. "

"Yeah." Gu Mian nodded: "The individual competition in the preliminaries is a two-two duel and one elimination, but the judges can choose five players from the losers who they think are capable of advancing but have encountered too strong opponents, and they choose to challenge themselves A player who has already advanced.

At that time, Hu Ying entered the third round for the first time, and in the preliminaries, he ran into the domestic number one in the previous competition. In the rematch, he chose me as his opponent. "

"Because he never beat you, so he hates you very much?"

"Eh..." Gu Mian suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "It's true that I never hit me, but maybe I hate me because..."

Seeing Su Muruo's eyes full of thirst for knowledge, Gu Mian was suddenly embarrassed to say so.

Duanmu Lian, who had been listening in, added calmly: "Because Gu Mian was still a sophomore in the last session, he not only wanted to play tricks on his opponents, but also verbally attacked them. What 'in the eyes of the strong, there is no place for the weak'."

Gu Mian was so embarrassed that he was about to buckle a Great Wall on the ground, trying to save his respect: "I'm not always like this, the main reason is that Hu Ying despised me at the time because he was the third rank, so I hit him."

"Yeah." Duanmu Lian expressed her understanding: "The battle of the century between two middle school boys."

Gu Mian: "..."

Su Muruo laughed unabashedly.

Simply, the reserved rooms for several people are on the second floor, and the period of uncovering the past will soon be over.

After entering the comfortable single room, Gu Mian washed up a bit and fell on the bed. He was a little tired from the night's journey.

In the last sleep, I didn't wake up until ten o'clock in the morning.

However, there is nothing to do on Friday. Zhao Qiubai went to enjoy the scenery of Yanjing alone. Su Muruo hid in the house to practice healing spells. Arrow] and use the worship value to draw a lottery, trying to draw some items that can be used as boosters.

"There are still more than ten minutes until the opening, gentlemen, I am so excited."

"According to the official statement, this is a competition for teenagers aged 14 to 18. Is it not strong enough?"

"Not strong? Are you kidding? The little brother in the video is about seventeen or eighteen years old. You say he is not strong?"

"Will the little brother play? I absolutely support him."

"I also support it, but this is a national competition, and there are many masters. Objectively speaking, it is difficult for that little brother to shine here."

"I don't listen, I don't listen, my idol is the best."

"Good guy, the extraordinary has just come out, there is a fan circle culture."

On a certain live broadcast platform, the live broadcast room with a black screen has a terrifying amount of bullet screens, covering the screen layer by layer, and even various gifts keep popping up. This popularity far exceeds that of all major anchors.

And this is just a platform. This time, the live broadcast was broadcast on all platforms, and it alone dominated the hot searches on the entire Internet.

As usual, this would not happen at all.

"click"

Gu Mian turned off her mobile phone, looked up at the huge open-air venues around her, and the six big arenas spread out, and said with some emotion: "I'm afraid there are hundreds of millions of people watching the live broadcast online in the whole country. I didn't expect that we would still be able to walk." Before going on stage."

"More than that." Zhao Qiubai, who was sitting on his left, said, "Just now the official statistics released, saying that there are more than [-] million people online in the whole network. Of course, it's not just people from Yuanzhou, there are also people from some neighboring small countries."

"Didn't people from the Bald Eagle and other countries come to see it?" Gu Mian asked.

"They are watching their own games. Xizhou and Bald Eagle's preliminaries are scheduled on the same day as us, while Dongying is one day later."

Gu Mian was surprised and said: "These countries have announced the recovery of spiritual energy."

"It's been a few days since it was announced." Su Muruo, who was sitting on his right, interjected, "The domestic news is quite hot, haven't fans noticed?"

Gu Mian shook his head, he rarely watched the news unless necessary.

Zhao Qiubai turned the laptop on his lap: "Here, the preliminaries at Xizhou have already started."

Gu Mian and the two leaned over, and the screen showed the players entering the arena. Western faces walked past the camera, and the commentator took the trouble to explain, introducing their code names and abilities to the audience.

Until a red-haired figure in a black dress appeared on the screen, the commentator's voice suddenly became passionate: "The next ones will be our top four players in the last World Championship, the eldest daughter of a wealthy Swiss cultivator. The 17-year-old Queen of Magic Bullet is crowned."

The figure was wearing a long black dress of fine texture, and a princess with a face as delicate as a god appeared in the world. The most striking thing was the long, bright red hair that fell gracefully behind her head.

There was a burst of cheers and shouts at the scene, and the narrator was even more excited:

"Even in the commentary booth, you can still hear the excited voices of the contestants. Our Queen of Magic Bullets is as supportive as ever among the superhumans. Let us look forward to the glory she will bring to Xizhou!"

Even through the screen, Gu Mian could still see the unnatural look in the eyes of the red-haired girl he was familiar with when he heard the word "Magic Bullet Queen".

Afterwards, she hurried out of the camera range. The narrator obviously didn't want to finish it. Even if the next contestant stood under the camera, she continued to praise the Queen of Magic Bullets, and she reluctantly stopped until the contestant's face turned black.

At the same time, the opening time of Yuanzhou Kingdom has arrived.

"Oh!"

As soon as Gu Mian raised her head, she saw countless colorful fireworks flying into the sky from the entire surrounding of the stadium, each of which pulled out beautiful colored smoke, enveloped together, as if building a colorful high wall around the stadium.

Afterwards, the three letters YCA appeared out of thin air above the center of the gymnasium, and then began to burn blazingly. The sparks kept falling, like a golden rain.

The preliminaries of the World Junior Championships have officially begun.
