In order to run freely and showcase their skills on the MAGIC3 field, they were not idle for a moment during the summer, actively training and preparing. "This year is my second time participating in MAGIC3, and the intensity of this competition has been higher, but we have also been well prepared. We have used the tactics and running positions we trained before, and our regional goal is to give it our all, fight to the end, and strive to advance to the finals!" Lv Yan from Fuxing Senior High School gave his team a high-tech name "Base Complementary Team", and he and his teammates signed up to participate in MAGIC3 on the recommendation of friends. Unexpectedly, we stepped onto the stage of the regional competition for the first time. Lv Yan excitedly said, "In the regional competition, we played four games, and the last three games were narrowly won by one point. Every step forward is a test of our physical strength, but we withstood the pressure and successfully advanced to the regional competition. We are very fortunate! In the regional competition, we hope to win more victories."
