Dai Yuheng said in confusion: "Teacher Wang, we qualify as the first in the group in the round-robin competition. According to strength, Douling Royal Academy should also be the first in the group. How could we draw them by drawing lots? Isn't the first in the group and draw only the second in other groups when drawing lots in sixteen to eight?"

Wang Yan said: "By judging by strength, Douling Royal Academy should be the first in the group. But in fact, this is not the case. A dark horse appeared in their group, and he maintained a complete victory before encountering them. But Douling Royal Academy gave up the last game against that dark horse academy for some reason. Then he qualified as the second place. Unexpectedly, he collided with us."

Ma Xiaotao said: "Will there be any problems? Douling Royal Academy is also an old college. They will not be unaware of the importance of group first. What exactly makes them give up group first? Is it just to accumulate strength?"

Wang Yan said: "I have also thought about this issue. The only difference between the first and second in the group is in the 16th and 8th. After this game, it will be meaningless. Douling Royal Academy should rely on this, and it must be hidden very deeply. It can only be watched in the game. Fortunately, we also hid you and Yuheng have not yet appeared. With you in charge, there will be no big problems. Okay, let me tell you the rules of the knockout stage first."

"The Soul Fighting Competition of the All-Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy has been developing for tens of thousands of years, and the rules of the competition have been constantly changing. Especially in the final knockout round. In order to make the competition more exciting and to better show the overall strength of the participating academy, the competition method will be different from the previous one. The knockout round is no longer determined by drawing lots like the round round. Each knockout round will be divided into two days. Team battles and individual knockout rounds must be held separately. Winning team battles does not mean that one can qualify. In the individual knockout round the next day, if all seven opponents can be defeated with three players, then you can turn the defeat into victory. The team that wins in the team battle only needs to defeat three opponents with the power of seven to ensure that you qualify."

"This competition system not only reflects the importance of the overall strength of the team, but also gives opportunities to teams with strong individual strength. For example, there are Soul Emperor-level powerhouses like Xiao Tao and Yuheng in our team. If we lose the team battle, but they shine in the individual competition and eliminate all seven opponents with the power of two, then we can still win this knockout match. Therefore, the knockout match is not only a test of the overall situation, but also a great opportunity to reflect personal strength. A truly capable college will focus on cultivating the top students, and it is also a goal to turn the tide in the individual competition in the knockout match stage."

This is the way of competition in the knockout stage, which is indeed unexpected to everyone. Huo Yuhao asked: "Teacher Wang, what if he is injured or consumed too much in a team battle and cannot participate in the individual competition?"

Wang Yan said: "Then it depends on the depth of the bench. Every academy that comes to participate in the competition brings a reserve team. Just like you were originally a reserve team. Once the selected team members are in the situation you mentioned, the reserve team must take the lead."

"Babe, Xu Sanshi. You two have recovered. If you need to use those abilities in the knockout round, can you do it?"

Wang Yan naturally refers to Beibei's Golden Holy Dragon Martial Soul and Xu Sanshi's Xuanwu.

Beibei nodded and said, "I should be able to. My martial soul is not as big as the three stones, but it is better because I can control its appearance. After using it once, just like the martial soul fusion technique of junior brothers and others, they can use it again after three days of rest. But there is only one blow. After my cultivation level reaches the seventh ring, I can only stabilize this ability."

Xu Sanshi said with a bitter face: "I can't say it. Because I can't control it. Only under particularly strong stimulation can my martial soul have that kind of mutation. But like Beibei, if my cultivation level can reach the Soul Saint level, then everything will not be a problem."

Wang Yan nodded slightly and said, "Then I understand. Let me arrange the players who will play tomorrow's game. Entering the knockout stage, there will be no sloppyness. Our opponents tomorrow are the semi-finals of the previous session. So we must do our best. Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yuheng, Ling Luochen, Beibei, Xu Sanshi, Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong. You seven of you will participate in the team battle. With Ling Luochen and Huo Yuhao, the others will attack head-on and defeat the opponent with their overall strength. Caitou, you can also make a cigar and assign it to everyone later. Fortunately, you can use it during the game."

"Yes." He Caitou agreed.

Xiao Xiao pouted and said, "I'm not doing anything."

Wang Yan smiled slightly and said, "At the end of the game, no one can guarantee that there will be no personnel damage. As a rotation lineup, you are equally important. In the previous game, you have done a good job. You and Nan Nan, Caitou must also be prepared to participate in the battle at any time. Now, I will arrange the tactics of tomorrow's team battle. No matter what the Douling Royal Academy has prepared, we will give them a warning first."

The return of the two soul emperors has made Wang Yan full of confidence in winning. They still need four knockout games to stabilize the final championship. Although the next game is difficult, it will not be as difficult as the reserve team facing Zhengtian Academy.

At this moment, suddenly, the door of the conference room was knocked.

Wang Yan frowned slightly and shouted in a deep voice: "Didn't you tell the service staff not to disturb us?"

A beautiful female voice came from outside the door, "Sorry for disturbing me, I'm not a service staff member, I'm from Starlight Auction."

Starlight Auction? Wang Yan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this familiar voice. Beibei, who was closest to the door, had already stood up and gave Wang Yan a questioning look. After seeing Wang Yan nodding with affirmativeness, he walked over and opened the door.

A woman in a black long dress stood outside the door, looking twenty-eight or nine years old, she was the age of a woman with mature charm but youthful atmosphere from time to time.

Huo Yuhao and the others knew each other, it was the auctioneer they attended the auction that day, Qingya.

Qingya's eyes directly found Wang Yan, smiled slightly, and said politely to Wang Yan: "Hello, Teacher Wang. I'm taking the liberty to bother you. I'm really sorry."

When Wang Yan saw that it was him, his eyes seemed to be softer and he said in a deep voice: "What's wrong with you? Qingya Auctioneer? And, how did you find this place?"
