《World of Experts 》Chapter 184: Selection Contest (1)
Advertisement
Another day passed, and Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao had enough of a break.
Especially Feng Tianhao, if he didn’t return to the game, then Shi Hao might pester him to find that waitress to take a good look.
When they entered the game, it just happened to be morning in the game.
The sun shone on the land of Twin Dragons Village, waking up sleeping people. Soon, everyone discovered that their two Village Chiefs had ‘returned’.
“Reporting to the Village Chiefs, during this period of time, Twin Dragons Village has developed extremely rapidly…” Wang Fu reported the current situation.
In short, the economic and military strength of Twin Dragons Village had greatly increased.
Among them, the progress in the cultural aspect was even more remarkable. The songs sung and stories told in the nearby villages, all came from Zhang Jue.
Naturally, the increase in characters’ level was also very important. In Twin Dragons Village, all combatants had reached level 20.
“Very good!” Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao smiled.
After Wang Fu left, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao discussed about the Players Meet.
“Now, among the players, if there is no accident, our town will be stable in the number one position as long as we win this competition.” Feng Tianhao said.
“Mmm…, unfortunately, we are still lacking a strategist… I wonder where we can find one…” said Shi Hao.
Feng Tianhao thought for a while and suddenly recalled something: “Oh, that’s right! I remember seeing the recruitment order announced by that Heroic Overlord Under Heaven on the internet. It seems that he wanted to recruit strategist and fighter profession players. The location is Heavenly Dragon Village… How about we go there and take a look?”
Shi Hao pondered and said: “Forget it, the strength of a person recruited like that is not certain, moreover, their background will be even more unreliable. It’s better to have nothing than substandard choice…”

Feng Tianhao nodded in agreement. He had suggested it because he wanted to see the excitement.
Feng Tianhao said again: “In that case, how about we hold a strategist selection contest? Let’s see who among the strategists in our Twin Dragons Village is the strongest…”
This time, Shi Hao didn’t object: “Okay, but there are no suitable people in our Twin Dragons Village, and Little Xiao absolutely can’t go. Therefore, we can only go to Heavenly Kong Village of Soaring Through the Highest Heaven…”
“Hmm…”
Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao didn’t waste time. They immediately sent a letter to Heavenly Kong Village.
In the letter, Shi Hao personally wrote: “Quickly hold a strategist selection contest to provide talents for the Players Meet… We two will be there on the last day of the selection contest…”
At the end of the letter, Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao jointly wrote their names.
‘Soaring Through the Highest Heaven’, who was a die-hard fan of the Twin Dragons Village, attached great importance to this matter.
“Men! Quickly build an arena…, all people with the strategist profession are to lay down their works and return to the game…” Soaring Through the Highest Heaven ordered, and the work started in full swing.
Speaking of it, Soaring Through the Highest Heaven was also an out-and-out rich second generation, named He Xiang.
He was also a graduate of a prestigious university. This year, he was 25 years old and he had opened a high-end restaurant. Naturally, the capital needed to open this restaurant was provided by his family.
His restaurant was famous. It was opened beside C University of H Province.
Yes, it was the restaurant where Shi Hao and Feng Tianhao had visited a few days ago, named ‘River of Heaven’.
The specialty of ‘River of Heaven’ was a top-quality wine, brought to the human world, making everyone taste a kind of divine flavor.
Not long after, before the letter written by Twin Dragons had warmed up in He Xiang’s hands, his subordinates brought the news that the preparation for the selection contest was over.

“Let’s go!” He Xiang jumped off his chair and went to the site of the selection contest.
Although the arena was a bit small and also coarse, it was simple and usable, which was enough.
“Cough! Cough!” He Xiang put on his favorite brown bear costume and roared: “Everyone, the importance of this selection is self-evident. I hope everyone will do their best and don’t disappoint me, moreover, don’t disappoint the ‘twin dragons’ that will come on the last day…”
Nonsense! Who didn’t know the importance of this contest? Everyone here was basically an employee of ‘River of Heaven’, and they greatly admired Twin Dragons Village. They were already itching to fight, and basically didn’t listen to this damned manager’s nagging, instead, they were sizing up their potential opponents.
Finally, He Xiang finished his nagging: “I’ll only say this much. Everyone should display names so that I can take notes. Now, I announce the official start of the selection contest!”
This selection contest would be held according to the format of the Players Meet. There were three rounds.
First round, audition, every person should display their basic strength.
Second round, melee, leaving two people as the final contestants.
Third round, decisive battle, the final two candidates fight to determine the winner.
At this moment, the first round of audition was ongoing. He Xiang was sitting on the head seat beside the arena, watching the talents and skills of every strategist in his village with full interest.
A man hastily rushed onto the stage: “Lord Village Chief, look at my skill…” After speaking, he waved his feather fan, throwing out an ‘Energy Arrow’.
This ‘Energy Arrow’ was just a D grade basic skill. It was like a small bomb, and its power was not that big, basically counted as a cheap trick.
He Xiang shook his head and waved his hand: “Next…” He then crossed the name of this person from the namelist he had.
Shortly afterward, the next candidate stepped forward. He was also a man. He didn’t say much. Perhaps, he thought that his strength was enough to explain everything.
Suddenly, this man held a feather fan with his right hand, stamped his feet on the ground and stood on horse stance, “Ha!” A layer of light blue defense shield appeared around his body.
This was ‘Energy Shield’, was also a D grade skill. It increased the defense, but it was an out-and-out good-for-nothing skill. The defense of strategists was very low. Even after the increment, the defense would still be broken at one hit.
He Xiang shook his head again and waved his hand: “Next…” Afterward, he crossed the name of this person.
Like this, for half a day, He Xiang repeated the same process, saying ‘next’ while shaking his head.
He Xiang thought: “Fortunately, the people of Twin Dragons Village only come on the last day. If they had seen these losers, then the reputation of my Heavenly Kong Village would have been smashed to bits…”
Gradually, the sky was getting darker, and He Xiang looked at the namelist full of crosses and basically couldn’t raise his head.
He counted, “one, two, three, four, five…” Just five strategists were barely presentable. These people either had a C grade skill or had a good operating technique. And speaking about it, all of them were men.
Thinking about it, although the proportion of girls among strategists was the highest, the female players had become strategists for crafting, not for fighting. Only a very few female players dared to join battles.
“Enough! Is there anyone left…” He Xiang was a little tired and wanted to finish this round.
However, a female strategist named ‘Fluttering Bamboo’ jumped onto the arena with agile movements…

I had recently enrolled in the military as a lowly footsoldier. Oh, before you could proceed any further, let me tell you about myself. I ain’t some patriotic soldier that’ll lay down my life for the sake of my country. Hell no! That shit is for the people with loose screws! I had only a few goals when I joined the army: March into battle, kick ass, and earn me some cash! Achieving glory on the way wouldn’t hurt. I just need the money to feed my little brother and sister. Their world is all I want to protect. The glory is for washing clean the stains that my father left on the family name. We became such a joke in the country that our mother abandoned us. I don’t know if he really did betray the country, but I don’t care. For my little siblings to suffer the same mockery and humiliation that I did is unacceptable! To protect the smiles of my only family, I would do anything. Yet, life knows to shit on you when things are just getting good. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, author-san here!This is my first story, set up in a fantasy world. It's based on the medieval and steam era where magic is rare and alchemy is used widely used as a weapon by people. There would be lots of action, adventure, betrayal, tragedy, romance, etc. ahead. Warnings-The mc is a bit mean and foul-mouthed, introvert. There would be strong language and lots of monologue narration by the MC. The stories are fast-paced and progressing faster. The chapters update would be unstable, depending on my daily life. You would get fast updates... or slow.Also, English isn't my first language. So don't expect perfect grammar :( P.S. - I would like some constructive critique and feedback!It fills my motivation gauge and increases that rate of chapter/week. (/>3
