"I declare that the 47th Martial Arts Tournament has officially begun!"
A clear shout resounded. Chen Yi did not use any equipment, but under the influence of ghost energy, his voice still spread throughout the competition field and reached everyone's ears! So the entire noisy scene at the moment
The arena suddenly became silent.
"It finally begins!"
I sat upright with a look of excitement and anticipation in my eyes. I had been working hard for a month just for this day.
"There are 215 contestants in this martial arts tournament. Next, we will announce the rules of the competition..." Chen Yi stood in the center of the leadership table and announced the rules of this martial arts tournament in a calm tone.
The competition is divided into six rounds.
In the first three rounds, the top 15 on the sky list will have a bye, and the remaining 200 people will compete one-on-one. The winner will advance to the next round, and the loser will be eliminated directly. In other words, in the first round, 200 will advance to 100, and in the second round,
100 goes into 50, and the third round is 50 into 25.
Starting from the fourth round, the 25 people who advanced in the previous round will be mixed with the top 15 who received a bye to compete in two rounds to determine the final top ten.
As for the sixth round, it is a separate preparation for the top ten. The top ten will determine the specific ranking in this round.
At this moment, the first round of knockout is about to take place. Excluding the top fifteen, the remaining 200 players will participate in this round of knockout.
"Walter, do I get a bye in the first three rounds?"
After hearing about the competition system, Xie Zhen was immediately shocked. The first three rounds of co-writing had nothing to do with me??
Seeing Xie Zhen's indignant look, Sun Wei smiled and said: "Actually, this is quite good. It will save the top fifteen from hurting each other in the first few rounds, which would be too unworthy."
I couldn't help but nodded. Indeed, whether it is for those at the top of the rankings or for the weaker members, this competition system has more advantages than disadvantages.
"Oh, I originally wanted to kill seven people in and seven people out, but unfortunately it didn't work out as I wished." Xie Zhen sighed softly.
"Come on, if you meet Zhou Da in the first round and are directly pushed down, you won't even be able to get into the top 100." Ye Yuyou glanced at Xie Zhen, who was beating his chest, and said speechlessly, she
Not as aggressive as Xie Zhen, it doesn't matter whether he gets a bye or not. At worst, he has the right to just watch the game today.
Xie Zhen's face changed slightly, and he immediately said with a guilty conscience: "Zhou Da is just an egg. I will tell him to be a new person every minute. He is just an egg..."
While Xie Zhen was bragging, Chen Yi's voice also came over: "All contestants in this round, please go to the lounge to draw lots to choose your opponent."
After Chen Yi finished speaking, there was some commotion in the audience. The contestants left one after another. I didn't hesitate. I stood up and said to everyone: "Then I will go to the lounge first. See you later."
Lin Wei encouraged: "Ye Yan, come on!"
"The competition hasn't even started yet, so let's draw lots." I said with a wry smile.
"Then draw a good lot!" Ye Yuyou said with a smile.
Hearing this, I rolled my eyes, "Oh my god, you underestimate your brother too much. I don't need to look at luck now. It's obviously based on strength!"
In the case of a bye in the first fifteen, except for facing Jiang Chen, who felt a little unsure, everyone else was scum! Come on, I'll torture each one.
What is confidence? This is called confidence!
In the first round of contestants, in addition to me and Jiang Chen, there are also several children of the Sun family, such as Sun Cheng, Qian and Sun Qing. However, there is no Sun Wei, who is also in the top fifteen, and has not been able to play in the first three games. he.
After we left the auditorium, we walked directly back along the player aisle, where Chen Yi delivered the opening speech. It seemed that no matter where he was, he had to speak on the occasion.
Walking on the road, Sun Yueren said with high spirits: "I suffered a big loss in the last trial. This time, I must find my way back to the stage and vent my anger!".
Sun Yueren was actually quite unlucky. She was beaten by a group of people in the last trial. Otherwise, with her strength, she would not have been eliminated and would not have been able to participate in the hunting battle.
Sun Yueren's face darkened slightly when he recalled the scene in the trial where people were kicked out of the ring. It was really a shame and humiliation that two people who were not as high ranked as him actually joined forces to knock him out of the ring, in full view of everyone.
"Well..." I said tentatively: "Actually... we already dealt a heavy blow to them in the last hunting battle."
"Hmph." Upon hearing this, Sun Yueren snorted and her face improved a lot, but she still said angrily: "It's not enough, I have to deal with them myself to relieve my anger!"
"Zhao Yihui, Tang Yu, these two people, I have to beat them until their teeth are all over the floor!" Sun Yue said with a murderous look on her face, these two people were the ones who beat her up during the selection.
"Don't worry, if I meet the two of them, I will help you vent your anger!" Sun Qing patted Sun Yueren and said with a smile.
While we were talking, the lounge arrived. A lot of people had already arrived. A rough calculation suggested that there were about a hundred people here. However, the lounge was big enough and it was not crowded at all.
At this time, everyone lined up in a long and winding queue. At the end of the queue, there was a table with a large cardboard box on it. An old man with at least two stars of strength was sitting behind a table. He repeated a little impatiently: "Everyone, please line up, don't jump in line, otherwise I will throw you out directly..."
At the request of the old man, we lined up in a long line. While waiting, I glanced at the people in front of me and saw a few acquaintances, such as Cheng Yichen and Tang Jing. They were at the end of the line. Front.
As if he noticed my gaze, Cheng Yichen looked back at me and smiled at me. Seeing this, I smiled back.
Contestants kept pouring into the lounge, and soon the Zhou family came in. When they saw us, their faces suddenly turned livid.
Zhou Hao, Zhou Xiangyang, Zhou Chen...
Tsk tsk, they are all acquaintances.
When I saw that their faces looked as ugly as if they had eaten rat droppings, I felt so happy. I took the initiative to say hello to them and said with a smile: "Hey, it's been a long time since we last seen each other since the hunting war. How are you? I'm doing okay lately." ?”
I specifically mentioned the hunting war that they regarded as a shame, just to make them angry. Sure enough, after listening to my words, the faces of the Zhou family became even more ugly. Zhou Hao said angrily: "Ye Yan, you Don’t be complacent. Last time you tricked us with your dirty tricks. This time, it won’t go as you wish. You’d better pray that you don’t run into me!”
"What are you doing, Lao Zhou? Don't be so angry. Friendship comes first and competition comes second..." I said with a smile.
"roll!"
Seeing Zhou Hao's face full of anger, Sun Chengqian shook his head and sighed: "Oh, Old Zhou is so angry. I really feel sorry for him. If he loses again soon, he will be so angry..."
Zhou Hao was indeed furious, but at this time he couldn't do anything extraordinary. He could only suppress his anger and gritted his teeth and said: "Don't let me meet you on the field!"
"Quiet!" The old man frowned and shouted angrily: "If you have any grudges, settle them on the martial arts field. Don't make any noise here!"
As soon as the old man opened his mouth, we immediately fell silent. Even the children of the Zhao family, who had just come in and were about to mock us, also shut their mouths.
After a while, when people were almost there, the old man nodded and said: "Next, I will talk about the issue of drawing lots. Please listen carefully to me. I will only talk about it once."
"In the big box in front of me, there are 200 wooden picks, with the numbers 1100 marked in red and blue respectively. In other words, there are two wooden picks for the same number." The old man said authentically: "Holding the same number. The player with the red sign is the opponent. For example, the opponent with the red sign No. 1 is the blue sign No. 1. The order of the game is the numerical order. "
"Does anyone have any questions?" the old man said slowly.
No one responded. Seeing this, the old man nodded and waved his hand. The wooden picks in the big box suddenly floated under the influence of his ghostly energy. These two hundred wooden picks all had their backs to us. Only from the back In appearance, these wooden sticks are all the same.
"You use your own ghost energy to grab a wooden stick at random. Once you grab it, don't change it." The old man said calmly.
Hearing this, everyone used ghost energy to grab wooden sticks, and the number of wooden sticks became less and less.
While I was praying in my heart that I wouldn't run into people like Jiang Chen, Sun Chengqian, etc., I condensed the ghost energy into the shape of my palm. After hesitating for a moment, I grabbed a wooden stick located in the upper right corner.
The wooden pick landed firmly in my hand. After I turned it over, I raised my eyebrows slightly.
