Return of the King, Chapter 921 - 910 Competition

Chapter 921: Chapter 910 Competition

The New Year’s Eve night has fallen.

For a large family like the Song Family, there are quite a few traditions during festivals, and tonight is no exception.

First, the distinguished figures from the main and branch lines of the Song Family gather together, then they perform ancestor worship, followed by a simple al together, and then they separate, with each branch celebrating New Year’s Eve on their own, while those from the main line celebrate together.

There aren’t many people sitting at one table, just Mr. Song, Song Ergou, Ye Qingxia, Song Yun, Qingluan, and at this ti, Elder Wang is also seated next to Mr. Song. Originally serving Mr. Song, Song Laifu, has gone ho to spend New Year’s Eve with his parents tonight.

"This is the first ti our family has gathered to celebrate the New Year together, it’s quite rare, co on, let’s have a toast." Mr. Song’s face glows with red, and he raises his glass to speak.

Naturally, Song Yun and the others below also raise their glasses and drink it all in one go.

On such a festive occasion, Mr. Song seems to shed his mantle of power and talks about dostic trivia with Song Ergou, Song Yun, and others like an ordinary old man.

It’s a scene of harmony and beauty.

After dinner, the old man pulls everyone to watch the Spring Festival Gala, which is said to be his long-held tradition, watched every year without fail.

By the ti the Spring Festival Gala is over, it’s already midnight. Many fireworks have already blood in the sky, and many mbers of the Song Family have gone to various places to set off fireworks. Song Yun isn’t particularly interested in these things, so after Mr. Song goes to rest once tired, Song Yun returns to his room to organize the training materials for the next day.

The days proceed in an almost uneventful state, and Zhao Wangquan does not co to question Song Yun about his past actions in his venue, and even people like Song i Qin have almost completely disappeared.

Everyone is waiting for the arrival of the third day of the first lunar month because on that day, Song Yun will lead Blue Demon to participate as the host in the World Military Competition.

This matter is personally watched by Number One, so no one dares to disrupt Song Yun’s focus at such a critical mont; no one dares to provoke the wrath of Number One. It should be noted that bearing these two characters, even people like Mr. Song must bow and greet respectfully when they et! This power is not sothing that ordinary people can compare with.

Song Yun also starts to get busy, getting up in the morning to prepare for afternoon training and having to train every day until eleven or twelve at night before going ho. Such a hectic lifestyle doesn’t even leave Song Yun ti to attend to the won around him.

It continues until the third day, the day the competition begins.

The competition ti is ten in the morning, and the location is a training ground within the military district.

Of course, this is not just any training ground but an entire hill, encompassing jungle, mountainous areas, plains, and various terrains.

This hill is extrely expansive, it could even be described as vast.

Song Yun and the Blue Demon team mbers arrive early at the training ground.

As the host, Blue Demon is the first team to arrive here, and several teams are expected next, including Arica, RB, Korea, Russia, Eagle Country, Germany, and the hacking tribe.

Song Yun initially thought there would be dozens of teams, but then found out after inquiring that there were indeed many teams initially, but a preliminary knockout round was held, leaving only these few advancing teams.

"So that’s how it is!" Song Yun realized, imagining that if over a hundred teams ca to compete here, accommodating them would be problematic, and safety would be another concern. Just think about it, each team with ten mbers, plus other logistical support, officials, etc., would amount to more than twenty people, and over a hundred teams would an more than two thousand people. If these two thousand people collectively decided to strike directly towards the Red Wall, intercepting them would be extrely difficult, so for safety considerations, knockout rounds had been held separately on each continent.

Regarding how the knockout rounds were conducted, Song Yun was unsure.

At this ti, Song Yun and others were in a military camp within the mountain, and not far away, a high platform displayed red flags and banners, warmly celebrating the World Military Competition being held in Shen Zhou.

Song Yun found the banner incredibly peculiar. The people of this nation like to shout slogans and hang banners for everything, which seed a bit redundant in Song Yun’s view. A serious military competition with a leadership viewing platform made to look like a stage added more festivity but also lost a lot of solemnness.

While Song Yun was staring dazedly at the viewing platform, the sound of trucks could be heard from afar.

Large heavy trucks appeared in Song Yun’s field of sight. Due to recent snowfall, the trucks were covered with thick tarpaulins, concealing the conditions inside.

Soon, the trucks roared to a halt at the camp entrance, and sturdy soldiers leapt off the trucks. There were Caucasians, Asians, and even Indian browns.

These were the teams participating in the competition.

The Arican team was easy to recognize; those wearing berets were Arican soldiers, each with an extraordinary deanor, led by a One-eyed Dragon.

The Arican team was actually the legendary Seal Assault Team, a special unit the Aricans neither confirm nor deny, responsible for missions abroad. For instance, a forr terrorist tycoon bin Laden was taken down by this special unit, demonstrating formidable strength. The One-eyed Dragon, who led the team, was a legendary figure in the rcenary world. Song Yun had heard of the One-eyed Dragon’s renown during his ti in the rcenary world, allegedly excelling in personal combat, intelligence, and organizational skills, with his team ranking in the top ten globally.

The One-eyed Dragon, clad in black leather boots, with a cold light emanating from his single eye, stared intently at Song Yun and the others after disembarking the vehicle.

After a while, he showed a disdainful smile, then led his team to line up aside.

The Eagle Country and German teams were also among their nations’ elite special forces. The forr was the reputed Round Table Knight Special Forces from Eagle Country, and the German team was Fangya.

The two teams stood directly united.

Next in Song Yun’s view were a group of hulking giants, with an average height of at least 190 centiters, even Mao Shan’s stature seed only moderate among them. The leading blond giant with eyebrows, Paslov, was a well-known figure in the rcenary world, with his team also ranked among the global top ten. Given his na, he undoubtedly belonged to the Russian team.

The Russian team, nicknad Polar Bear, appeared in white jackets, and Song Yun found this moniker fitting.

"Hello, Shen Zhou people!" Paslov greeted Song Yun by leading his team next to Blue Demon.

"Hello!" Song Yun nodded with a smile. According to the world’s strategic layout, in Asia, Shen Zhou and Russia are strategic allies. Although the other side has imposed many restrictions in fear of Shen Zhou surpassing them in recent years, the essence of the strategic alliance still exists and will not change, primarily because far away in Arica, Uncle Sam is watching. Even if the two countries wouldn’t ally, they’d have to, for Arica is undisputedly the strongest nation globally, unchangeable for the next century.

"I hope we can both advance in this competition!" Paslov said in halting Chinese.

"I hope so too!" replied Song Yun with a smile.

While the two were chatting, another group disembarked from a truck further away. These people were below average in height, even sowhat short with big heads and thick necks, looking awkwardly sinister.

This was the team from our friendly neighbor, the Great RB Empire. Their team’s na was also intriguing, called Heavenly Light, in homage to Heavenly Light God, RB’s guardian. The team leader, a short man with a small square beard under his nose, was unfamiliar to Song Yun, with no information available, but he did not seem to be weak.

Next to the RB team was an allegedly Ultimate Strong Team known as the Korean Team, capable of sweeping the universe.

Why sweeping the universe? Because Korea’s tradition dictates that anything powerful is inherently Korean’s, under such circumstances, not just Song Yun, even Azure Dragon would seem trivial in front of South Koreans. Winning against them is futile, as they find ample evidence declaring you a Korean, subverting your worldview entirely, and unknowingly making you a mber of the great South Korea. Given that every formidable individual is from their country, sweeping the universe is achieved rely by speaking.
