134 Day One

Many people were already waiting in front of their TVs, mobile phones and computers when the coverage of the event finally began.

Red dots of light flashed across their pitch-black screens, becoming brighter and denser until they finally formed rows of bright-red flames. The flames then transformed into large words: Dayang Mountain Forest.

Over the sound of a helicopter, the narration began. "Welcome, everyone, to this special presentation. This group of cute monster trainer cadets is about to participate in day one of the Dayang Mountain competition…"

The audience in front of their screens was stunned. The program's style felt really familiar… Was this supposed to feel like a documentary?

"On the first day, our energetic and cute cadets got up from their beds…" The sound of the footage gradually softened, and then, from the background, came a loud, blaring voice, "Attention all candidates, attention all candidates."
