Chapter 118: Public Opinions from All Sides
Since the complete integration of the game with reality, the territories of major countries expanded exponentially, and numerous racial empires that originated from the game emerged in this world.
With the changes in these continental plates, many "no-man's lands" also appeared.
The so-called "no-man's lands" refer to unknown continents that have not yet been occupied by any country, organization, or force.
In this context, major countries dispatched legions and job-changing experts to explore and occupy these unknown continents.
After all, these unknown continents were rich in job-changing resources.
To claim ownership of these unknown lands, many countries developed irreconcilable conflicts with each other.
Wars between countries even broke out multiple times over these resources.
The rift monsters that descended worldwide due to the global catastrophe were already enough to give each country a headache.
Now, with internal conflicts over job-changing resources and unknown lands, it was like courting disaster.
To address this, the leaders of all countries gathered for a crucial meeting.
To resolve the conflicts over resource claims, they established an authoritative organization named the "Global Job-Changers Association."
As for resource distribution…
The solution was simple.
Wars between countries to resolve resource issues were not feasible, so could a relatively peaceful approach be used?
When this question was raised, the eyes of the top officials from various countries lit up instantly.
They collectively decided that only the "Global Job-Changers Association" would have the rights to explore and occupy all no-man's lands.
No country was allowed to send legions to explore, occupy, or claim these lands without the association's permission.
The association would settle resource distributions every October, accounting for how many no-man's lands were explored and how many resource secret realms were discovered.
With shared ownership of resources, how should they be distributed?
Naturally, a "relatively peaceful method" was adopted.
Thus, the "Global Competition" was born.
Since all countries found it unfair to divide resources, it would still come down to strength.
However, this time, it wasn’t about the combat power of national legions but the strength of each country's young talents!
The final resource allocation would be based on the rankings of the Global Competition.
In other words…
The country whose young talents performed well in the Global Competition would receive a larger share of the resources for that year!
Every participant in the Global Competition fought for their country! For glory!
They represented their country's face!
Therefore…
The annual Global Competition was the most watched hot topic worldwide!!
According to the rules of the Global Competition, participants must be under twenty years old.
The resource proportion for individual competition rankings was 70%; team competition rankings accounted for 30%.
As a result, every country sent their top third-year students for individual competitions, rarely sending second- or first-year students.
The high resource proportion for individual rankings required the top talents to achieve good results, even aiming for the championship.
Currently, the pre-selection for various countries' regions was about to begin.
In other words…
They would first select the strongest talents in each country's region.
Then, these talents would represent their country in the official individual and team competitions of the Global Competition.
Although it was just the pre-selection, each university sent their top third-year students for individual competitions.
Even if there were two or three second-year students in team competitions, they were the top first and second-ranked in their year.
This allowed them to gain experience in the pre-selection, helping them adapt to world-class competitions in the future.
But…
What did Fengtian Academy mean by sending a first-year student to the pre-selection this year?
And putting him in the critical fifth position of the individual competition!
This…
What a brainless move!?
Are they underestimating the third-year talents from other universities?
Or are they just messing around, not taking this important event seriously?
Within an hour of the Fengtian Academy releasing the list, their official accounts on various social media platforms were flooded by netizens.
They even trended on the hot searches.
Complaints, protests, and angry comments poured in.
"Don't forget! Your academy's representative stopped at the top four in last year's Global Competition individual event!"
"Instead of trying harder to regain your honor, you're slacking off by sending a first-year student! Do you have no shame?"
"Exactly! I was expecting Fengtian Academy to make a comeback this year!"
"It seems Fengtian Academy is unreliable; we'll have to rely on other top schools!"
"What a lousy decision! I wonder what the deans of Fengtian Academy are thinking!"
These comments targeted the school, but some internet trolls went straight for "Qin Fan."
It's not just on external platforms; even second- and third-year students at Fengtian Academy were bewildered!!
"This… I’m speechless!"
"If there was really no one else, they could have put Sheng-ge in the individual competition! What’s the point of sending a first-year?"
"If they're sending a first-year, they might as well send me! At least we’d lose anyway!"
"Could he have really contracted a dragon pet?"
"Get out! Do you really believe those rumors? At least make up a believable lie; there are no pictures or videos, and they claim he contracted a dragon! He probably contracted an egg!"
"…”
In contrast to the seniors' extreme dissatisfaction, the first-year students were thrilled.
"Woohoo! Fan-ge is taking off!"
"So exciting! Can’t wait to see Fan-ge thrash those fools!"
"Can't wait to see Fan-ge's two holy dragons shock the world! Everyone will be blown away!"
"Damn! Just thinking about it gets me pumped!"
"…”
While the outside world was in an uproar over this topic, Qin Fan followed the elegant beauty of a dean to the entrance of the second transfer trial secret realm for Dragon Tamers.
Looking at the mysterious blue-glowing portal, Qin Fan didn’t hesitate, pushed it open, and stepped inside.
