One by one, people from all over the world gradually went to Venice, and the small Venice suddenly became nearly three times as many tourists in a few days, and the boat lanes, bridges, squares, and bus ships seemed to be a little crowded.

Venice is not big, it can not handle a lot of people, and gradually Venice has begun to limit the influx of people.

The culprit that will lead to the overcrowding of the quiet and peaceful town of Venice is naturally the competition for the world's universities.

There are not many dueling competitions between mages in the world, and the major magic associations do not encourage old mages to compete in the arena and put on a show, and then show it in front of the TV......

The only ones who can form this kind of competition atmosphere are the magic students, who are young and vigorous, and at the same time can best show how successful a country is in magic education, which has also led to the World Academy Competition becoming the world's largest magic duel feast every four years, plus the strength of the students is not too high or too low, it is the most suitable group of people to do magic competition.

At the Doge's Palace in Venice, the flags of the countries selected to enter Venice have been hoisted high, and there are a total of 32 teams from the countries that have entered the final duel in Venice, and they are all teams that have performed extremely well in the national pavilion competitions and training tasks, in fact, this ranking also indicates the overall magic level of each country to a certain extent, and this measurement deviation is not too much.

Those who can enter the decisive battle in the water capital of Venice should be regarded as a magical power.

32 flags hung over Venice, when the sun rose, the magic salute resounded through this beautiful city in the bay, and the gorgeous and divine light fell down, falling on the young and energetic faces of the teams of various countries, listening to the high-pitched magic war song of Italy, enjoying the envy, worship, and worship of people all over the world. Eyes with high hopes gathered, I don't know how many student mages are fantasizing about the arrival of this day, from this moment on, it is no longer an obscure little mage, but a dazzling and famous mage who may enter the Parthenon, the Temple of Liberty, the Holy Inquisition, and the Basilica of St. Peter's the Great.

And the people who attended the recent days were all super strong mages who were famous in the world.

"Here I would like to express my sincere thanks to the Temple of Liberty in the Americas, the Wizard Tower in Dubai in Asia, the Church of St. Paul in Europe, the Magic Castle of the Cape of Good Hope in Africa, and the Altar of St. Kai in Australia...... Thank you equally for coming from afar. And, of course, the protagonists of our grand magical event, the best young mages from thirty-two countries, selected from all the major magic universities......" Fabio, the governor of Venice, said his opening words in a high-pitched voice.

The venue of this opening ceremony is not large, and the people who may sit in it are all world-famous mages, and the forces and stops they represent behind them are the most desirable holy places for all mages.

The representative of the Chinese side was the chief mage of the court, Pang Lai, that is, the Forbidden City Court mentioned by the governor just now, and the court mages of China represent the strongest group of mages in China, they are higher than the judges, higher than the pearl mage group, and higher than the Praetorian Mage group......

A number of other organizations named after a famous place in the country also represent the national mage societies that enjoy the holy names of major countries in the world, among which the Parthenon and the Holy Inquisition have the highest prestige in the world.

The Parthenon, the Inquisition, and the Hunters' Alliance, despite their national origins, are no less influential than the Magic Guilds of the Five Continents in terms of world influence.

Therefore, if you want to talk about the highest world magic organization, there should be eight.

So, if you want to talk about social status, Mo Fan, as a hunter master, is actually very good, the mage position of the eight major forces can basically become a measure of the strength of the magician in this world, and a five-star hunter master can be on par with a city's mayor and city general-level figure in a country.

It's a pity that Mo Fan hasn't reached the five-star yet, and he is still some distance away from the five-star.

And when you get to the Seven-Star Hunter Master, you can get the title of King Hunter, and the status of the King Hunter is quite high, and many times the Magic Association, the army, the municipality, and the state need to seek the help of King-Hunter figures.

Mo Fan is also inspired to be a hunting king, although Mo Fan jumped to become a four-star hunter master because of the drowning incident, there is still a certain distance compared with the powerful hunting king, and the reward of hundreds of millions, billions of dollars is really salivaful!

Zhao Manyan knows a lot about the important figures of the major forces, no way, he already lives in such a so-called "celebrity" mage, and he is familiar with the major forces and the major helmsmen, which is the basic common sense required by his family!

After the opening ceremony, it was directly into the tense and exciting draw.

Thirty-two groups of national government teams, which country will collide with which country has formed a gambling pool full of money all over the world, like those ordinary people, who are not so concerned about national affairs, the battle of magic, why are they so keen to watch the battle of world universities?

On the one hand, this is already a hot topic once every four years, which is related to the prosperity and glory of one's own country, and on the other hand, the flow of funds in the gambling games opened during this period can be compared to the import and export funds of a country......

"Captain, let's go draw lots. Mentor Feng Li said to Ai Jiangtu.

Thirty-two teams, the captains of each team are listed, originally the lottery is generally the responsibility of the mentor, and I don't know when it started, this lottery is the captain of the team is responsible, which can be regarded as an honor, after all, this lottery process is also broadcast live, and the faces of the captains will be exposed in the eyes of people all over the world.

Ai Jiangtu is also a very bold person, he didn't even look at which team it was after drawing the lot, and after showing it to the referee there, he dragged the lottery card and walked back.

Thirty-two teams, even those countries with super strength, they are very nervous at the moment, which country to draw is very critical, the strong country does not want to meet the strong country at the beginning, that will only expose their overall strength prematurely, not to mention the weak country, when they meet the strong will be eliminated early, they will not have time to remember their names and faces, they will run back to their own country in disgrace, if they don't behave well, they may return to China to be scolded, and now in this society of free speech, those ordinary people can scold the most, obviously they don't know anything about magic, they can also scold rigorous logic, which makes people can't help but believe that this will be a trumpet that some holy mage is spraying people on the Internet.

It is said that in the last World University Competition, the Chinese team was quite unlucky, and in the second round, they bumped into the American government team, and they were abused so badly that it was unbearable.

If they don't achieve good results this year, it is estimated that the national leader-level mages will have a black face, which makes them how to talk about things with other countries in the future, and speculate about the psychology of other national leaders for a long time, and others say: I heard that your national government team has lost again. I just want to flip the table, okay?

Everyone's eyes were on Ai Jiangtu's face, and they wanted to see from his expression whether this draw was happy or sad, but Ai Jiangtu had a serious black face, no matter what time it was, everyone was purely scheming in vain.

While waiting for Ai Jiangtu to announce which country it was, the Japanese government team next to him suddenly shouted happily, and kept saying the Japanese-style international language in their mouths

“Luckly！So-Luckly！！”

To put it simply, what they shout is, "How lucky ******!!"

The Japanese government team, Mo Fan and others have already dealt with them, and when dealing with the Caribbean Red Jewelry Guild, the group of people in the Japanese government team were showing off their might, and there were a few people Mo Fan still had some impressions of their names and appearances.

The guy who shouted luck should be Ming Busong, who also wanted to get the Dark Lord Cloak, and this guy was staring at them maliciously at the moment, with a smug smile on his face.

"Are they our opponents?" Mo Fan asked.

On the Japanese team's side, almost half of the people turned their heads to look here, Ming Busong, Shao Hegu, and Soft Sister Paper can be regarded as old acquaintances.

"It seems like yes. Nan Jue lit up the lottery card with a wry smile on his face.

Among the thirty-two countries, there are also strong and weak differences, and the Japanese government team must be considered a middle and upper reaches of the thirty-two teams.

"I don't know what they have to be happy about, they look like they're beating us. Jiang Shaoxu was very disdainful of their reaction.

"It's not because of our miserable ranking in the last session, they naturally listed us in the weaker echelon, in fact, we were not weak in the last session, mainly because we ran into bandits like the United States in the elimination link. Jiang Yu said.

"Give them joy first, and wait until the day of the official competition, so that they can't cry!" said the arrogant Guanyu with a cold snort.

......

......

On the other hand, the Japanese team has reined in their pride and began to discuss how to deal with it very professionally.

Their mentor, Nobuko Fujikata, was not as optimistic as the students seemed, she glanced at Mo Fan in the Chinese team in azure clothes, and said, "This guy faced the leader of the Red Jewelry Guild in the first place, Cassel?"

"Oh, oh, I almost forgot about this guy!" Shao Hegu immediately came to his senses.

At the beginning, in the confrontation with the Red Decoration Guild, Mo Fan's combat effectiveness was quite amazing, and this guy had to guard against it!

"What are you afraid of, in my opinion, this person in their team is more powerful, and the others are like that, is it possible that this guy can carry the banner of a team alone?" said Yosuke, who was newly replaced in the Japanese government team. (To be continued.) )
