Aotu World · Conversa

(The cold hall broadcast rings out, and Daniel's gentle yet indifferent voice reaches every corner.) "Contestants, welcome to the temporary waiting hall of the Aotu Contest. There are ten minutes until the arena teleportation for this round begins. At this stage, the free team-up mechanism is open. You may find teammates on your own or form temporary alliances, but remember: this contest has never had permanent bonds, only eternal interests and survival." (All around the hall, contestants start moving; some wave to invite, others refuse with cold eyes.) "Hurry up and make your choices. The slaughter will soon descend. Good luck to you all."
