Half an hour later, the entire competition venue was set up. On the left side of the arena was the audience seating area, where students from both dojos would sit in two groups.

On the right are the host's seats and the photographer's area. There are three hosts in total: two from the Chinese Martial Arts Association and one from the Japanese Martial Arts Association.

As for the referees, they will be sent by the Chinese Martial Arts Association.

Qin Wuchen glanced around the hall and saw that Ono Eiji had clearly prepared these things in a short time, which made him a little worried.

"Teacher Qin, do you think we will win?" Xia Tong, who was standing nearby, also understood this point and asked.

"In terms of preparation, both Ono Eiji and we will each send three martial arts practitioners at the third level of martial arts, and the game will be played in a best-of-three format. The selection of players for the first and third games is particularly crucial."

"However, in terms of martial arts skills, we are far superior. After all, we have the home advantage. The Third Martial Arts School is, after all, the martial arts school of the Su family in Yunhai City. The investment in daily training resources is something the other side cannot compare to."

Despite this, Qin Wuchen was worried about the students' mindset, so he went to the lounge with Xia Tong.

Inside the lounge, Zhong He stood in front of a small blackboard, with three martial arts students he had selected in front of him, while the others sat in the back row.

Qin Wuchen and Xia Tong pushed open the door and entered, standing at the entrance. Their arrival did not interrupt Zhong He's speech.

"Li Chun, as the most skilled martial artist in our school, you will be the key player. If we lose the first match, the opponent will definitely win the entire competition in one go, and then you will be the one to step up."

"If we win the first match, you will be in the third match. In the second match, I will send Xu Cheng to face the opponent's strongest player. That way, even if Xu Cheng loses, we will still have you as a backup."

Zhong He tapped the small blackboard as he gave instructions to the two martial arts performers.

The two martial arts students, one of whom was relatively tall and more robust, was Li Chun. He was the eldest grandson of the Li family and at the age of seventeen, he had already reached the third level of martial arts and was half a step into the fourth level of martial arts.

Beside him stood Xu Cheng, a short man, who was eighteen years old.

"Understood, Master," the two replied simultaneously, bowing in greeting.

Zhong He knocked on the blackboard again, then turned to look at the fat man beside him.

"Wu Bo, as the first player to go on the field, you must show your spirit and capitalize on your advantages. Remember, whether we can win the match depends on whether you can win the first game!"

"Understood, Master!" Wu Bo shouted, his face twitching and sweat beading on his forehead, looking extremely nervous.

As a player who is both crucial and not so crucial, Wu Bo is slightly stronger than Xu Cheng, but slightly weaker than Li Chun, placing him somewhere in between.

"We don't know what kind of player they'll send out, but they don't know either. So, Wu Bo, you need to utilize the advantages of your 'Dragon Tiger Claw' as soon as you step onto the field. The Dragon Tiger Claw is fierce and domineering. On the field, you need to suppress your opponent at all times, and then find the right opportunity to win in one move. Do you understand?"

"I heard you!" Wu Bo shouted again.

Upon hearing this, Qin Wuchen fell into deep thought.

Although the Dragon Tiger Claw is indeed fierce and domineering, it is used as soon as you enter the arena, when the opponent still has plenty of energy, so it is not difficult to deal with.

Moreover, when it comes to strength, karate is also known for its strength, and in Qin Wuchen's opinion, it is unwise to try to win by strength.

However, although Qin Wuchen thought this in his heart, he did not say it out loud.

But after Zhong He finished speaking, Su Mufeng, who was standing in the corner, quietly raised his hand. As the "culprit," he was punished by Zhong He to stand in the corner and was also excluded from the list of players.

"Hmm? You have a problem with that?" Zhong He glanced at the corner where Su Mufeng was, and Su Mufeng's raised right hand trembled involuntarily.

However, he still tried to remain calm and stammered, "Master, I think we should exhaust the opponent's strength first. Although Senior Brother Wu Bo is powerful, he is not agile enough, so it is difficult for him to hit the target in one blow."

"Heh~" As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong He couldn't help but sneer, "You're a martial artist who just entered the third realm of martial arts yesterday, what gives you the right to question my ideas?"

"Although Eiji Ono doesn't care that you injured his apprentice, your repeated disrespect towards your master is utterly disrespectful! I haven't even had a chance to settle accounts with you, and you dare to question me? I think you've really grown too big for your britches!"

Zhong He shouted loudly, and Su Mufeng dared not say anything more, silently lowering his hand and shrinking back to where he was.

Upon seeing this, several martial arts performers couldn't help but sneer.

"Look at him! He dares to question his master? He must be tired of living!"

"Just ignore him. He'll get a good scolding from his master later!"

"Hehehe..."

The mocking laughter was somewhat harsh, but Qin Wuchen, standing to the side, cast an appreciative glance at Su Mufeng. The opinion he had just expressed was actually something he himself hadn't said.

Afterwards, in the lounge, Zhong He gave a brief introduction to the advantages and disadvantages of karate to the martial arts students. A few minutes later, someone notified them that it was time to go on stage.

Inside the hall, a large number of reporters were already on high alert. After Zhong He and the martial arts performers came out, they started snapping photos, and the flashes went off non-stop.

Meanwhile, Eiji Ono had already arrived at the competition venue, and the fighters he sent out were already standing on the arena, ready for battle.

"The purpose of this competition is to promote exchanges and common development between the martial arts communities of the two countries. During the competition, we will stop when the point is reached and no one should be injured or killed."

At the front of the stage, another host raised a microphone and began reading from his prepared script.

"Remember the principles of competition: friendship first, competition second!"

"Now, let me introduce the contestants from both sides. From the Karate Dojo, we have Sho Iguchi, and from the Third Martial Arts Club, we have Bo Wu."

"Please bring your competitors to the stage!"

After speaking, Wu Bo took a deep breath and slowly walked onto the competition field. At the same time, the camera was clicking away and flashing incessantly.

"Competition rules: Each match lasts three minutes."

"Defeating your opponent during the match and not being able to stand up within ten seconds is considered a victory. Defeating your opponent out of the designated area of ​​the arena is also considered a victory. The player with the higher final score is also considered the winner."

"Now, please have the referees and contestants come to the stage!"

After he finished speaking, a man in a black uniform walked onto the field.

"The competition now officially begins!"

A deafening cheer erupted from the surrounding area.

"Go Wu Bo!"

"Go Wu Bo!"

"Sho Iguchi, do your best!"

"Sho Iguchi, do your best!"
