Chapter 1680  Second World Congress and Earth Tournament (3)

Tang Shaoyang could not attend the First World Congress because he was in another world. He returned in time for the Earth Tournament back then. This time he was interested in the World Congress, but not the Earth Tournament.

He truly did not have an interest in watching the tournament. There were so many better things to do than watching people below his rank fighting each other.

"Do we need to choose them? Just pick whoever wants to join the tournament, no? They will represent us, and they will take the reward if they win."

Zhang Mengyao could tell how uninterested her husband was in the tournament. He did not care whether they were winning the tournament.

"What about if we lose the tournament? That will taint our reputation as the strongest faction." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Tang Shaoyang glanced at Zhang Mengyao, not expecting her to care that much about The Earth Tournament. They did not lack treasure, let alone the Game Coin. The most important would be the Dimensional Tower which was in the World Congress.

He did not really care that much about their reputation in the Earth Tournament. That tournament could not be used to measure which faction was stronger. He would rather focus on his administrator mission than waste his time with the selection and trivial stuff.

"I don't think we will lose if you and Lu An join the tournament, no? We can send all Demi-God Ranks, and we will win the tournament."

Zhang Mengyao shook her head, "This year's tournament will be a battle royal because we had a fighting tournament last time. It's a team competition, and we have to send at least one team of six people. We are allowed to send a maximum of three teams."

"However, there's a requirement that we can't have people in the same rank in the same team. We can't send all six Demi-God Ranks. It seems like The System wants a balanced tournament rather than a one-sided tournament like the last tournament."

Tang Shaoyang nodded his head. The requirement was to make the competition fair.

"That will be easier. We can choose three Demi-God Ranks to be the leader of each team, and let them choose their own team. Fifteen days should be enough for them to form a team."

Zhang Mengyao nodded, "So you don't care even if we don't win, right?"

Tang Shaoyang nodded in response. He felt like she implied something behind that word, "I mean I don't mind we are losing, but not to deliberately lose the tournament."

"I am thinking of including our students in the academy into the team. A few of them have reached Epic Rank, and two students have reached Ancient Rank. I want them to experience a real fight against humans, not just monsters and zombies."

Even though they trained the students to fight against zombies, beasts, and monsters. They never fought the other human with an intent to kill. She wanted them to experience a real battle against humans as well. Zombies, beasts, and monsters were not their only enemies, after all.

"Yeah, that's a good idea," Tang Shaoyang agreed, "So, who will lead the teams?"

"If you don't join, then it's better for someone in my status not to join as well. But Ashley and her Ash Rose Order want to join. What do you think?"

He was surprised that Ashley wanted to join the tournament. Her knight wife usually did not want to stand out that much, but she initiated joining the tournament. He knew about her knight order but did not know how strong they were.

"Yeah, why not? But has she reached a Demi-God Rank?" From what he remembered, Ashley was still Primordial Rank last time.

"Do you think you are the only one working your ass off? We also work hard to catch up. She reached Demi-God Rank a week ago."

"That's good. Please remember not to take the next trial so quickly. Take your time, maybe try to take a dozen of the Demi-God dungeons first, get yourself stronger before trying the trial."

The trial for the Demi-God Rank was the dimensional fight to gather the God Shard. They only needed ten, but gathering a hundred would allow them to join the Trial of God. He had told them about it and advised them to get one hundred God Shards.

The fighting experience in the dimensional fight was also precious. It was not just about the God Shard.

"Don't worry. I have reminded them about it. Let's pick the remaining two teams," She glanced at Lu An, "Why don't you take your Intelligence Division to join as well, brother?"

Lu An immediately shook his head, "No. I don't know if I can control my emotions yet, and I don't want to go berserk during the tournament. That will be dangerous for my people."

"What about Yu Shun?" Tang Shaoyang remembered another young man, "Leading a team will be a good experience for him."

Lu An shook his head and looked exhausted when Yu Shun mentioned, "Yu Shun doesn't want to work as a team. He always works by himself along with his creepy zombie. He has been sweeping the tower to get a new zombie all the time. Sister Luo Lan nags me a lot to bring that guy back home."

Luo Lan was Yu Shun's wife. The guy spent too much time in the tower than at home, which made his wife worried.

"Oh, Zaneos replied to my message. Your former demon spirit wants to join as well, and he has prepared the team. Zowen, Areth, Duan Ya, and Chang Jie. He wants to pick the last Epic Rank to join his team."

Zhang Mengyao just received a message from Zaneos. Before she brought this topic to Tang Shaoyang, she had asked several people to join as well. In case, Tang Shaoyang did not return in time.

Right after reading the message from Zaneos, she received several messages. All of them were a reply to her offer to join the tournament.

"Zhao Zhong, Alissa, The Moonlight Tribe…" She read them one by one to those who wanted to join the tournament. It started with no candidates, and now many wanted to join. They all replied with a team ready.
