Chapter 508 - 336 First Encounter with the Sun King
The next morning, Ji Xinghuo woke up feeling refreshed. After morning training with Zhao Manying, he went out for a stroll.
At noon, Zhao Manying gathered with the team.
Ji Xinghuo practiced alone in the hotel’s gym. Although the efficiency was far less than the Ether Research Institute, he couldn’t afford to slack off.
He trained until evening before heading to the "Imperial Arena" to witness the opening ceremony of the "International Invitational Tournament."
Every year at the International Invitational Tournament, the champions of the major leagues from the previous season and the teams leading the current season’s standings are invited directly, while other spots are determined through pre-qualifying tournaments in various countries, culminating in 32 teams entering the group stage.
The first match of the evening was filled with compelling storylines.
On one side stood the defending champions, "Emperor Star Team," led by Zhao Manying, who had swept the past five International Invitational Tournaments.
On the other was the "Gladiator" team from the New Roman Empire. The Gladiator Club, established for over a century, was one of the earliest mutant teams in the world, boasting countless fans and the hot favorites to win this season’s New Luo Super League.
Under the watchful eyes of thousands, both teams entered the Spirit Realm World.
A vast map projection appeared in the Imperial Arena and was simultaneously broadcasted globally via the internet.
