Stop pretending, I'm a security guard, a five-star general!

"Next, let's invite the captains of the teams that have advanced to the round of 16 to come up on stage to draw lots and determine their opponents in the quarterfinals!"

With a loud shout from the host, the captains of the sixteen participating teams stepped onto the stage, and a deafening roar of cheers and applause erupted from the audience.

"When the land is flat and the people are at peace, the world will be at peace!"

"Chen Feng, Chen Feng, the unparalleled god of wind!"

"Han Li, Han Li, who can rival him!"

"..."

The fan groups of each team captain started competing with each other, seeing who could shout the loudest and loudest.

"Damn it, miscalculation, we forgot to hire an online army."

Seeing this, Qin Yu shook his head and sighed softly.

Because Jiangnan No.1 Middle School hadn't played a single match before being directly promoted to the top 16, the audience had absolutely no impression of them, so there were no fans to speak of.

After all the team captains took to the stage, the host first interviewed each of them as usual, asking them about their feelings on making it to the top 16.

Most people gave very formal answers, nothing more than thanking their teammates for their hard work and thanking their fans for their support.

When it came to Qin Yu, the host smiled and explained:

"I believe that this captain is a complete stranger to the audience."

"Then let me introduce you all. This is Qin Yu, the captain of Jiangnan No.1 Middle School. Their team is also the first team in the history of the competition to directly advance to the top 16!"

Wow!

These words caused an uproar, and everyone turned their attention to Qin Yu in the center of the arena, their expressions filled with shock.

Directly guaranteed a spot in the top 16?

What kind of team is this? They're so awesome! Why have I never heard of them before?!

With a broad smile, the host held the microphone to Qin Yu's lips and asked:

"Qin Yu, I believe everyone is curious about how your team advanced to the top 16 through the guaranteed admission program. Could you briefly tell us about it?"

"of course can."

Qin Yu smiled and nodded, took the microphone, then coughed lightly twice and began to speak:

"Well, this is a long story, but I'll try to keep it short."

"First of all, I would like to thank our team's title sponsor, Semidez-Bike!"

"Want to experience the thrill of high-speed racing? Want to be the racing god of Mount Akina? Want to catch shrimp? Then choose the Medes Racing!"

"Secondly, I would also like to thank our team's co-sponsor, the 53 True Questions Mock Exam Papers."

Are you still troubled by your child's academic performance? Choose the "53" past exam papers and practice ten sets every day during winter and summer vacations. When school starts, your child will go from last place to first place!

"Then, I would also like to thank our team's chief partner, vivooppo. With just five minutes of charging and two hours of talk time, it's the perfect phone for your travels!"

"It just so happens that Vivo is having its 100th anniversary celebration right now, so I got a whole 100 phones from the manufacturer to give my family a good deal!"

"Simply scan the QR code below and enter the code 'Oranges and pomelos are the most handsome' for a chance to win a free prize! Don't miss out!"

Everyone: "..."

At that moment, the huge venue fell completely silent; you could hear a pin drop.

At such a prestigious event, you're actually advertising?!

But to be honest, they were actually a little tempted!

The host's smile suddenly froze.

He has hosted competitions for nearly twenty years and has never seen anyone more outrageous than this kid.

He quickly tugged at Qin Yu's sleeve, signaling him to shut up immediately!

(P.S.: In case some readers who are not good at English don't understand, let me explain: "shutup" means to shut up.)

However, Qin Yu was so engrossed in his conversation that he completely ignored the host's frantic gesturing.
