"Friends in the audience, there are five minutes left until the official start of the martial arts combat competition for the genius division of this year's Global Martial Arts Convention.
Currently, all participating contestants have boarded helicopters and are en route to the competition venue.
Now, let's take a look at the situation at the competition venue."
As the helicopter carrying Jiang Wuming and others took off from the military base's training ground, a host in the Divine Network live broadcast room spoke.
As her voice fell, the live broadcast switched from the military base to the competition venue—Ma Si Island, viewed from a high-altitude aerial perspective.
"Ma Si Island is located between the waters of England and Scotland and is a circular island with a diameter of thirty kilometers. This island was once one of Britain's resorts, but later became a landing point for extraterrestrial enemies."
The host spoke again, introducing Ma Si Island, and then as the screen zoomed in to focus on a criminal lying on the ground, she continued,
"The criminal shown on screen now is Luke Shaw, a one-star War God. Like all criminals on the island, he has been injected with a special serum and is currently in a coma. When the contestants arrive, they will awaken and engage in combat with the contestants."
While the host was explaining, the camera continuously panned across the comatose criminals on the island.
The distribution of the criminals was scattered and lacked any discernible pattern.
"Next, I will introduce five two-star War Gods among the criminals."
A moment later, the camera stopped on a middle-aged man, and the host's mind immediately flashed with the man's information.
"This man is called Aubameyang, forty years old. He has killed one hundred and twenty-six ordinary people and resisted the arrest by the Judgment Court of the War God Hall, killing one of their members. He possesses the strength of a mid-stage two-star War God."
At this point, another host turned to the invited guests, Bell and Henry, and asked,
"Masters, as far as I know, the general classification of martial arts realms is early stage, middle stage, late stage, and peak. However, you have a more detailed division, from one to ten segments.
May I ask, what segment of a two-star War God is Aubameyang?"
"Fifth segment."
Bell and Henry responded in unison.
It was clear that before attending the live broadcast as special guests, they had thoroughly reviewed some competition information, including details about the contestants and criminals.
The two hosts were even more so; this was their most crucial preparation work!
"This criminal is named Pete. He was once the most infamous criminal in Europe, ruling the Western European underworld and committing numerous serious crimes. He possesses the strength of a seventh-segment two-star War God."
The host introduced the second two-star War God. The man was bald, powerfully built, bare-chested, tattooed, and had a ferocious expression.
"What you are seeing now is the third two-star War God criminal. He is called Andre and possesses the strength of an eighth-segment two-star War God. He was once a knight of the Roman Holy See, but he ultimately became the person he hated most, a fallen knight."
The host spoke again. Andre, as she referred to him, had long golden hair and a handsome face. He was once the Prince Charming in the hearts of many young girls in the Roman Holy See and throughout Europe, but for some unknown reason, he had fallen from grace.
The host did not elaborate on this.
Precisely speaking, she did not know either.
Subsequently, the screen switched again, focusing on an old man dressed in a black robe.
"He is called Cissé and possesses the strength of a ninth-segment two-star War God. He was once a professor at the European Royal Martial Arts Academy, but in reality, he was a beast who harmed many young and beautiful female students!"
The host's emotions were slightly agitated as she introduced Cissé.
Such wolves in sheep's clothing are usually the most detested.
"What you are seeing now is the last two-star War God criminal, and also the strongest criminal!
His name is Sean. He was once a soldier in the British Legion of the War God Hall, fighting on the front lines against extraterrestrial enemies. He achieved remarkable military exploits and was once hailed as a hero of the British Legion and even the entire War God Hall.
Yes.
You heard that right. Before he did what he did, he was always a hero.
His medals were enough to adorn his entire uniform.
But such a hero, for some unknown reason, suddenly massacred his family!
Except for his father, Shenke, who served as an inspector in the Judgment Court of the War God Hall, he killed everyone else!
He possesses the strength of a tenth-segment two-star War God and has extremely rich combat experience. He is the most terrifying existence among all the criminals!"
As the host introduced the last criminal, Sean, her tone was somewhat complex, filled with regret, confusion, and worry.
Could the participating contestants really withstand such a terrifying war machine?
"Oh my God, what did he go through?"
"Although I'm very curious about what he went through, I'm even more curious if any contestant can really kill him? You know, according to the information released, the strongest contestant is only a first-star War God at the tenth segment!"
"If anyone can do it, it must be Jiang Wuming of the Dragon Country!"
"Yes, I think so too!
On one hand, Jiang Wuming is the strongest among all the contestants, and on the other hand, he is likely the legendary leader of the War Dragon Hall!"
...
As the host introduced Sean, the viewers watching the live broadcast also shared their opinions through bullet comments.
In the screen, Sean lay motionless near landing coordinate number 1, appearing to be in a coma like the others.
However, in reality, he remained completely alert. He could clearly sense that he was being targeted by the camera, and he had a nano-earpiece in his ear.
Just now, a voice came through the earpiece, informing him that Jiang Wuming would be landing at coordinate 1!
...
"Friends in the audience, the helicopters carrying the contestants have arrived above the island and are heading to forty-eight coordinates. Once all helicopters reach their designated coordinates, the cabin doors will open, and the contestants will jump out, while the criminals simultaneously awaken!"
Soon, forty-eight helicopters arrived above Ma Si Island, and the host's voice sounded again.
At the same time, on the island, Jiang Wuming sensed that the helicopter he was in had stopped flying and was descending.
He knew that the helicopter had reached landing coordinate number 1.
"Open the cabin door, all contestants descend!"
Two minutes later, a voice sounded inside the helicopter carrying Jiang Wuming.
As this voice appeared, Jiang Wuming stood up, pulled open the helicopter's cabin door, glanced at the height, and leaped out.
"Look quickly, it's Jiang Wuming of the Dragon Country descending from coordinate 1!"
"I remember Sean was not far from coordinate 1. Is Jiang Wuming going to encounter Sean?"
"Oh my God, is the fiercest confrontation going to happen right at the start of the competition?!"
The moment Jiang Wuming jumped out of the helicopter, the live broadcast switched directly to him.
At this moment, whether it was the hosts, the special guests, the viewers watching through the Divine Network live broadcast platform, or even top experts from various countries around the world, including Qi Wufu and Saint Lancelot Roman, all turned their gaze to the live broadcast.
Swish!
At coordinate 1, not far away.
Sean suddenly opened his eyes, got up with a powerful roll, swept a cold glance at Jiang Wuming descending from the sky, then sprang from the ground, turning into an afterimage, and rapidly dashed towards Jiang Wuming!
The competition has begun!
