Chapter 261: A Challenge from the Eastern Nation!
Time froze at 9:50 PM.
According to the rules: If a contestant does not arrive in the Divine Realm by 10 PM, it is considered a forfeit, and they are disqualified.
However, at this moment, Zhang Yue's figure was still nowhere to be seen.
As the Dragon Nation contestants wondered what might have happened on Zhang Yue's end, suddenly, all 99 contestants received a system notification simultaneously—
[Ding~ Attention: The contestants from the [Eastern Nation] have issued a challenge to the [Dragon Nation]. Please vote to decide whether to accept it]
Under normal circumstances, the World Finals feature matches randomly assigned by the system between two nations.
If one side issues a challenge and the other accepts, the two specified nations may then proceed to compete.
At the same time as the challenge notification appeared, the contestants from the Eastern Nation were seen circling the Divine Realm before heading straight to the Dragon Nation's base camp.
Their eyes gleamed with disdain as they openly taunted and mocked the Dragon Nation's contestants:
"What's wrong? Hesitating? Are you too scared to accept our challenge?"
"Before the competition began, we heard you Dragon Nation players boasting online about beating us in the finals. What happened? Chickened out now?"
