The news of the Martial Arts Competition had not yet been officially announced, but Tang Yu had already instructed people to deliberately spread rumors in secret.
Including on the part of Lindong, under the secretive manipulation of Grey Blade, an increasing number of Awakeners "inadvertently" became privy to this precious information.
Sometimes, rumors can pique people's curiosity more effectively and lead them step by step into the trap.
"Not to mention this time, I have really invested heavily, using C-tier rune equipment and many high-value rewards as bait. Most Awakeners who are confident in their own abilities will likely participate."
"Even if they can't compete for the championship, the other rewards are enough to make the Awakeners envious."
"When the time comes, based on the performances at the Martial Arts Competition as a benchmark, supplemented by other assessments, the Patrol Team will be able to recruit sufficiently exceptional Awakeners."
