Chapter 128 Martial Arts Challenge Competition (Fourth Update)
In a blink of an eye, more than a week has passed. After saying goodbye to December of last year, it is January of the new year.
The annual "National Martial Arts Challenge Competition" has begun to accept registration again. The registration site of City H is located at the Songjing Gymnasium of East Lake University.
Songjing Gymnasium is a building built during the Republic of China. At that time, there was a rich man named Song Jing. Because he listened to the feng shui master's remarks about the good feng shui of Luoying Mountain, he told his son to bury himself on Luoying Mountain before he died. However, at that time, the leaders of East Lake University did not agree - the reason is very simple. East Lake University is a university to cultivate talents, not a cemetery. Song Jing's descendants had no choice but to donate a sum of money to Donghu University and build this gymnasium named "Song Jing". Then they buried Song Jing's body in a wasteland not far from East Lake University, which was regarded as the last wish of their parents.
Nearly a hundred years have passed, and this Songjing Gymnasium has not only not been dilapidated, but has also become one of the most representative buildings of East Lake University. This rich businessman named Song Jing is also remembered by the people here forever because of the existence of this gymnasium.
......
On the day the "National Martial Arts Challenge Competition" officially began to accept registration, there was a sea of people in front of Songjing Gymnasium. Niu Du got up before seven o'clock, and then took Qi Yue to the scene to queue up to sign up. Despite this, there are still no more than 60 or 70 people in front of them.
Niu Du looked up at the mountain-like crowd, couldn't help sighing and said, "Hey, there are more people signing up this year than in previous years!" It seems that it is not easy to win a place in the competition!"
"Of course! There are five million prizes in this competition! Everyone wants to try their luck!" While Niu Du was sighing, a skinny man next to him suddenly interrupted and said.
Niu Du looked up and down at the man and said in disbelief, "No way? Are you also here to sign up for the competition?
The skinny man raised his head and said confidently, "What's wrong? Don't look at me being thin, but I'm actually quite good at fighting! If you don't believe it, ask him!"
The thin man said and pointed his hand back. Qi Yue and Niu Du looked in the direction of their thin fingers, but they saw an old man with half white hair and looked 50 or 60 years old coming over with blood.
"Hey, old man!" The thin man waved to the old man and said, "Come on, tell this little brother about the process of our competition just now!" Tell them that I will hit you all over the ground without three moves..."
The old man didn't seem to buy the account of a thin man and said, "The old man is just old now. If it were young, how can you be the old man's opponent? If this 'Wulin Style Challenge Competition' was there at that time, these five million would definitely be my old man..."
"Hahaha, the old man is quite good at daydreaming!" Another person came over, but he looked like a strong migrant worker. The migrant worker said as he walked, "In my opinion, there is no need to compete with these five million this year. The custody is mine!" I came out to work on the construction site at the age of 15. Now more than ten years have passed, but my little finger is more powerful than other people's thighs..."
"Country bumpkin, brag..." Before the migrant worker finished speaking, he heard the satire around him.
Just as the people behind were bragging there, suddenly there was a quarrel from the front of the team.
"...I want you to explain!" A powerful middle-aged woman shouted there, "This is a new era for equality between men and women!" I want your organizer to make it clear why don't you give me a chance to participate in the competition? Can only men sign up for the competition and get the five million? ......”
"I'm sorry, this lady! We are here at the registration site and are only responsible for accepting qualified people to register for the competition according to the requirements of the organizer! For your question, I think you can consult the organizer by phone..." A girl in charge of registration replied politely.
......
Looking at these uneven applicants at the registration site, Qi Yue couldn't help frowning and said, "Is this 'Wulin Style Challenge Competition' really so attractive? Why do men, women and children want to squeeze in..."
"Actually, what is really attractive is not the game itself, but the huge bonus of up to five million!" Niu Du said, "That's how it is these days! House prices have soared and prices have soared, and many people are having a hard time. Therefore, as long as it is an opportunity to make a fortune, a large group of people will fight desperately to grab it!"
"However, when I read the news on newspapers and TV recently, isn't it all about the country's economic development and the people living and working in peace and contentment this year?" Qi Yue was even more puzzled.
"So, you're just reading the news!" Niu Du gave himself a thumbs up and said, "Look at our family, my brother is going to get married, and he hasn't been worried about the money for marriage recently!" As for buying a new house in the city, there is no need to think about it..."
Qi Yue said, "I can't imagine that although this society is tens of millions of times richer than 2,000 years ago, the life of ordinary people is still not much better..."
"Hey, these national affairs are not under our control!" Niu Du poked Qi Yue in the back with his finger and said, "Brother Qi, the registration procedures of the people in front of us have been completed. We should take a few steps forward..."
......
After more than half an hour in line and lingered for a few minutes at the registration point, Qi Yue and Niu Du finally signed up. When Qi Yue and Niu Du turned around and walked back, they saw that the team had already lined up from the gate of Songjing Sports Hall to the Cherry Blossom Avenue in Yingyuan.
"Hey, fortunately we came early!" Looking at the long dragon-like team, Niu Du couldn't help smiling proudly.
However, Qi Yue suddenly stopped and looked forward motionlessly.
"What's the matter, Brother Qi?" Niu Du turned around and asked Qi Yuedao.
Qi Yue pushed forward with his chin and said, "Look, Liu Nan is in front!"
"Are you talking about Brother Nan?" Niu Du shook his head like a rattle and said, "Isn't it unlikely? He is never short of money..."
"He didn't come for the bonus, but for me!" Qi Yue said, "A long time ago, he agreed with me to compete in the 'Wulin Wind Challenge Competition'!"
