Chapter 71 - Provincial Competition Opening Ceremony

The next day, the two of them went to the central area to attend the opening ceremony for the provincial competition.

The five-day opening ceremony had already been going on for two days. On the third day, other than the program events, there was also a performance match scheduled in the afternoon.

The entry ticket read: "Old Friend VS 'a mystery player'".

Victor said, "It seems like there must be two conditions for this mystery player. First is that they must be in the national competition and won't need to participate in the provincial competitions; the second is that they have to have come from the Second Star Province."

Tyron wasn't curious at all about this kind of gimmick and said, "Just watch it for entertainment."

Victor's eyes were full of worship as he thought to himself: Tsk tsk tsk, my hubby feels like watching any level of competition is 'just for entertainment'!!

.

The two of them bought a couple of buckets of popcorn just like they were watching a movie, then also took two bottles of coke and went to sit in seats near the middle.

After the opening ceremony, the stages for the real and virtual world would merge.

In the real world, the stage and the audience from the virtual world would be holographically projected over their heads; in the virtual world, the scene from the real world would also be projected into their environment. It was as though the two sides linked together to form a synthetic sphere, perfectly surrounding the center stage.

The center of the venue was a virtual projection. This time, the hosts were four famous stars from the Third Star Province. Their appearances were all special in their own ways, and they were generous with their praise as they introduced the creation mage who had just come up onto the stage: Old Friend.

Finally, they announced, "Let's invite our mystery guest to the stage!"

A young man of about twenty-seven or eight came up onto the stage in time with the music. He wore a classic Robin Hood feathered hat and had a lollipop in his mouth as he waved to the audience.

Audience: "Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"

Shrill screams erupted in a flash.

Victor tilted his head and leaned against Tyron's shoulder.

Tyron reached out and helped him cover his ears.

Neither of them recognized this 'mystery guest'. They looked at each other for a while before Victor said, "Who is this?"

Tyron replied, "I don't know. Just watch the excitement."

Victor responded with an 'oh', then reached out to grab a handful of popcorn to eat, casually feeding Tyron a bunch while he was at it.

.

This mystery guest was nicknamed &#k2018;Mysterious Hand'. His ID: Vantico.

Not only did he come from the Second Star Province, but he also happened to be from the Earth District.

He'd been the first assassin to be confirmed as a god in the Earth District, and he was famous for &#k2018;having so many techniques that it was like a bottomless pit'.

His win rate had only risen and remained high since his rise to fame, and he had made a meteoric rise from the Earth District competition to the National Championship. He won third place in the National Championship last year and only lost to the second-place priest, Jiuzhou, by one point.
