บท 319: IUD-CHAPTER 319 PHOENIX FESTA
Today, in the city situated above the lake, there was an extra burst of vitality that it hadn't seen before.
No matter which corner you looked at, there were streams of people heading towards the central area of the city, gradually converging in a few directions.
At the end of these directions, there were stages set up one by one.
For this city, the importance of these stages was self-evident.
Therefore, in the Asterisk, the number of stages could be said to be quite high.
Among these stages, there were three large-scale stages, seven medium-scale stages, and an uncountable number of small-scale wilderness stages, which could rightfully be called one of the distinguishing features of Asterisk.
However, among the crowds heading towards these stages, the largest flow of people wasn't headed in any of these directions.
The endpoint of this stream of people was a grand, dome-shaped building.
The scale of this building far exceeded that of the other stages, not even the three large-scale stages could compare to it.
Its name was Sirius Dome, the largest main stage in Asterisk's Festas.
Regardless of which Festa edition it was, the championship match was held here.
That's why it could accommodate a whopping one hundred thousand people.
Today, the opening ceremony of the Phoenix Festa was being held in this very Sirius Dome.
At this moment, the seats in Sirius Dome were already packed with a sea of people.
And on the enormous central stage, the opening ceremony was in progress.
Students from various academies were all wearing uniform uniforms. As participants, they lined up in rows, right in front of the audience's gaze, participating in the opening ceremony.
However, the opening ceremony didn't require all participants to be present.
Depending on the academy's culture, the number of participants in attendance varied.
For instance, students from the Saint Galahadworth Academy, known for their strict discipline, were all present. Their formation was so orderly that it resembled a well-disciplined military unit. Each student wore a serious expression, and in their white uniforms, they appeared almost sacred, like Knights.
On the other hand, participants from the Rewolf Black Academy, known for their embrace of violence, had a significant absence. Their formation was rather messy, and regardless of the students' performance, just their appearance alone resembled delinquents, forming a stark contrast to the students from Saint Galahadworth Academy.
Fang Li, on the other hand, did not attend the opening ceremony.
In the contestant's dedicated lounge, Cecily lay on a nearby couch, yawning. Only Fang Li had his Space Screen open, watching the progress of the opening ceremony.
"OoohOoohOoohOoohOooh————!"
The cheers of the audience rose and fell, like waves of sound, constantly surging through the entire Sirius Dome, causing hearts to swell with excitement.
The lively scene and the level of enthusiasm had, to some extent, surpassed Sylvia's concerts in terms of scale.
Amidst this atmosphere, in the center of the stage, a middle-aged man, accompanied by several staff members, ascended the podium. He waved to the surrounding audience, wearing a handsome smile on his face.
Observing this middle-aged man, Fang Li squinted his eyes.
"Is that Madiath-Meza?"
—Madiath-Meza.
The Chairman of the Festa Operations Committee, also the Executive Producer, the highest authority responsible for the operation of Festa entrusted by the Integrated Enterprise Foundation. Anyone with knowledge of Festa would recognize him.
After all, every edition of Festa was planned by a committee centered around this man. His position was so high that he could even be considered a formal leader of the Integrated Enterprise Foundation, much higher than backup leaders like Toudou Kouichirou.
Furthermore, this man had once dominated the Phoenix Festa's championship during his student days. He possessed incredibly strong abilities back then, and even though he now wore a suit, one could still faintly sense the imposing aura hidden beneath his physique.
"If I were there, I wonder if I could sense the scale of Prana," Fang Li pondered.
At this moment, Madiath had already begun his speech.
"I am Madiath-Meza, the Chairman of the Festa Operations Committee. Hello, everyone, audience and participants alike."
A simple greeting, but under the voice of this chairman, it became quite charming.
Applause and cheers surged like a furious wave once again in the surrounding audience seats.
Under such circumstances, Madiath began his enthusiastic speech.
However, at this point, Fang Li had already closed his Space Screen.
The only reason Fang Li watched the opening ceremony was to get a glimpse of what kind of person Madiath, the chairman responsible for Festa's operation, was.
Beside him, Cecily had just propped herself up lazily from the couch, her mature figure accentuating her alluring presence.
"How did it go, Little Junior Brother?" Cecily yawned and asked, "Have you finished what you wanted to do?"
"It's done," Fang Li smiled at Cecily and said, "I'm sorry, Senior Sister, for making you accompany me to do such a boring thing."
"It's alright," Cecily waved her hand, not minding at all. She said, "Although it's indeed boring, since we're partners, it's only natural to act together."
"Is that so?" Fang Li nodded and asked, "By the way, Senior Sister, what is Master doing right now?"
"Most likely eagerly waiting to watch the matches, right?" Cecily shrugged and said, "After all, Master loves this kind of event the most."
"That's true," Fang Li patted the Ogre Lux activation body at his waist and contemplated for a while. Then he said, "In that case, Senior Sister, take a rest here. I'm going out for a bit."
"Sure, go ahead," Cecily simply lay down and began to snore loudly.
Seeing this, Fang Li shook his head with a smile and left the lounge.
…
Due to the ongoing opening ceremony, there weren't many people in the contestant area of Sirius Dome.
Fang Li walked along one of the corridors, intending to head toward the vending machines to buy some drinks to quench his thirst. As he did, two people approached him.
These were two rather unique-looking girls.
One had brown skin, slender eye corners, and tightly closed lips, giving off a somewhat aloof impression.
The other had a more expressive face and was wearing a white robe over her uniform, appearing somewhat unrestrained.
As these two girls approached while chatting, Fang Li didn't pay them much attention.
Therefore, he nonchalantly passed by them.
"Hmm?"
However, at that moment, the girl in the white robe suddenly made a surprised sound and then exclaimed in delight.
"Oooh, isn't this the person from Jie Long Seventh Institute?"
