Number One Dungeon Supplier-Chapter 1936 The Competition Announcement
1936 The Competition Announcement
The competition announcement caught everyone by surprise, especially the participants as they never expected it to be revived after what happened to the city that was supposed to be hosting it. Unfortunately for them, the announcement was not a hoax since the national newspaper had quoted the Royal Zodiac Heads who were hosting it and there was even an official telecast of the announcement being broadcast to the nation. It was actually happening and there was panic in the past participants as everyone who was supposed to be involved in it started searching on the internet who was this particular dungeon supplier.
As much as Jin believed that he was famous, he was not exactly well known to people in the other fields since those martial artists had believed that dungeon suppliers had devolved to a state where they were not taken seriously by these people. In the past, it might have been the go to place for them to achieve the relevant skills and experience but not at the moment when people had been pampered by technology.
However, the more these martial artists checked Jin's credentials, they started to have doubts about that particular belief. While national news and a quick internet search were what most martial artists would have done, some of their masters have connections to the military and other closed intelligence sources to learn more about this dungeon supplier.
Credit within the closed circles had made Jin look like he was the real deal and reviews of his Dark Days Dungeon Series were reminiscent of the old way where Martial Artists were restricted and trained until they got used to their techniques. But considering how recent Dark Days Dungeon was, some of the martial art masters wondered whether Jin did that to show that he had the calibre to host such an event. Surely he had made the scene within closed circles and Royal Zodiacs had vouched for him but there were still suspicions, thinking that this particular guy was a fraud to be able to do so much within a year. Thus, many who joined this competition had an ulterior motive to denounce this dungeon supplier when they had the chance but if they really met the real deal, then things might change for the martial arts scene too. Most of them took a 'Let's join and see' approach since the competition venue had already been endorsed by the Royal Zodiacs. But do not forget that the Martial Artists were just half of the crowd. This competition was catered to athletes too and they were laughing that all of these competition venues could be done by a dungeon supplier. Most of them were ignorant of the fact that Jin was able to create such realistic venues and denounce the Royal Zodiacs' trust in him. However, they had forgotten or had not noticed there were sports enthusiasts within the cultivator groups and incidentally turned into fanatics who defended Jin and his dimensional instances. While Jin did some sports service instances, Panda Muscles was not exactly the best example to showcase its prowess for sports like competitive cycling and even yacht racing but they were sure that based on the dungeon instances that Jin created, he was able to create the most realistic kind of environment for them to compete in. In fact, Jin was able to control the most damning factor that all sports competitors hated. The weather. Surely, everyone would love to compete in sunny weather but what if Jin could create a special category where he made sure that everyone would be competing in bad weather to push the limits of the competitors? And in doing so, it might create excitement for the spectators while ensuring that even in an accident, the competitors would not be hurt by it too. Screw that safety officer when Jin had the Luxury Recovery Instance and its Panda Nurses to take care of these people. This would undoubtedly bring a brand new level of competition where no other venues or city host was able to do so. If this was done right, he could potentially not just bag national competitions into his pockets but also international competitions. No ridiculous stadiums needed to be built or fancy accommodations. The cost could be brought down and more profit for the host nation as they handle the crowd. All the city officials needed to worry about was handling the number of people coming and going from Jin's instances.
Yet, the one that had the most amount of excitement was the cultivators. Yes, the Pandarens to be exact. They never thought of the day that Jin would be able to hold an official national event, one as major as the National Martial Arts and Sports Competition. Many were excited as the National News Media outlets only gave the minimum facts about the event but the Pandamonium App had dedicated one event page to it. With Kiyu as the main designer, she made the app page to be extremely flashy with the aid of the System. Even without any technical support or coding knowledge, the System assisted her in creating one of the most vibrant event pages ever created. The System put in so much effort mainly because of the public response and for image's sake. If they made such a shoddy terrible effort to the event page, most competitors would not expect much from it. And it was undoubtedly necessary for them to create the page to provide the information mainly due to the fact that the moment the competition had been announced, the number of installs from the online app store was in the thousands. As much as the Chinese were used to busy layouts, the System did not make the Pandamonium App filled with words. Instead, it went for the more modern, fewer words but a flashy kind of interface. At the same time, they gave the necessary and straightforward information on how the registration should be. It also gave sneak peeks on every single sports instance that had been created so that people could get tickets to see such an event. And that was the part where the System broke down the pricing to a very streamlined experience. Modelling from the monthly pass, the System had created an ultimate event pass that restricts and gives access to every single sports instance available.
From physical access to digital access, the System had learned from its past experience working Pandaflix and the Monthly pass to give the most creative and expensive experience.
That was why the System had purposely presented the sneak peek on the sports instance and the simulation of the possible participants in the sneak peek videos. So they could either watch the live stream show from the comfort of their homes or come to the sports instance and watch it live. Kiyu worked hard to make all those sports videos work visually well. From the dramatic climbing of mountains to the intense scene of the people fighting for a ball. It was to the point some people were skeptical whether Dungeons and Pandas could truly provide such quality. The only difference between these newcomers and existing customer base was that, the latter knew this was not just possible. It existed.
Thus, the critics and reviewers were fighting online fiercely on the videos and the justification of the price. And this was what Jin wanted badly. Even if there was either positive or negative press, he was getting publicity. And that publicity despite its scepticism was producing the noise that Jin wanted for the competition instance.
Because regardless of all that noise, the numbers do not lie. The app installs went to the thousands, and the website that the System had along with the new special competition instance had thousands of hits too. There were even several occasions of distributed denial of service (DDOS) attacks as well but the System was able to shrug it off as it had been prepared for it knowing that the noise made had allowed them to be rather successful. Even the Royal Zodiac Clan Heads had no idea that Jin was able to handle such backlash and learned how the Chinese society as a whole viewed Dungeon Suppliers. If this was successful, Jin might not only be one of the most renowned Dungeon Suppliers in China but also possibly the most notable Dungeon Supplier out of their country as well for this period of time.
He had the capital and resources to pull through. He knew how vicious the noise could be but once and when this event went smoothly, his next step was to announce the establishment of the brand new sites that he acquired previously. He believed that the people in Qian Liu Town would be in shock and that Tianjin Road would have a new addition that would not be missed by any locals or tourists.
Yet, there were still uncertain facts and unknown situations that might be an obstacle to this road to success. And it usually came hand in hand when the Royal Zodiacs were involved, especially when there were instances that had already shown it happened before in past competitions, it can happen again.
The Banned Emperor Terrorists.
