Shen Jianshu opened the thermos cup and blew it slowly. The floating white smoke was blown away by him, and then Shen Jianshu spoke.
"Let me first give you a brief introduction to the format of the combat competition."
"The first is the qualifiers. The qualifiers adopt a points system. Two points will be added for a win and one point will be deducted for a loss."
"High schools within the Eastern League and the Western League will compete with each other until there are 16 seeded teams with the highest points, and the qualifiers end."
"Then comes the promotion round, which means a total of 32 teams will enter the promotion round. The promotion round adopts a random drawing system. After the top four appear, it will be the semi-finals, and then the final."
"This is the rule of the team competition."
Shen Jianshu picked up the thermos cup and took a sip of chrysanthemum tea, with a smile on his face.
"As for the individual competition, the same rules apply. In the end, only 16 people will enter the promotion competition."
"The order of holding is - team qualifiers, individual qualifiers - team promotions, individual promotions - team finals, individual finals."
"The battle competition is the best stage and the best battlefield for you."
"You will see real geniuses there! They are all elites who are about to graduate from their respective universities."
"In a combat competition, throwing a brick can kill more than a dozen geniuses, so you'd better be prepared. If you underestimate the enemy, you will suffer a big fall."
Shen Jianshu's mouth felt dry as he spoke, and he couldn't help but take a sip of chrysanthemum tea.
Yang Xiangdi's eyes shone a little when he heard this, and he couldn't help but say.
"Professor Shen, if throwing a brick can kill a dozen people, does it mean that we only need to bring a bunch of bricks to the stage to win?"
"Pfft! Cough cough cough!"
Shen Jianshu took a sip of chrysanthemum tea and spit it out, choking him so much that he kept coughing.
He glanced at Qiao Yu with some resentment. Birds of a feather flock together, and he should have thought that Qiao Yu's friends were not normal people either.
"Qiao Yu, I won't allow you to use your body or that knife in this competition, at least not until the semifinals."
"Ah?" Qiao Yu's eyes widened. Without the physical body and the Zhulong Yanyue Sword, his strength could almost be cut in half.
"Ah what? Show the enemy's weakness, attack them unprepared, and take them by surprise. What have you learned in the past four months?" Shen Jianshu frowned slightly.
"Okay..." Qiao Yu had a headache.
Yang Xiangdi was smiling, but Shen Jianshu pointed the finger at him in the next second.
"And you little fat guy, in addition to the fire and earth elements that were exposed before, you are not allowed to use the other three attributes of power before the semi-finals!"
Yang Xiangdi's smile froze on his face.
"The other three can perform normally. With the two output positions hiding their strength, if your team can still reach the semi-finals, it means that you have a chance to compete for the championship!"
"If it doesn't work, then you should treat this experience as a dungeon experience."
Shen Jianshu's goal is very clear. If he can win the championship, of course he should win it. If he can't win it, then he should gain more combat experience. Anyway, the five of them are still young.
Thinking of this, Shen Jianshu couldn't help but be a little amazed.
The age limit for the fighting competition is under 25 years old, and the five teenagers in front of me are not even 20 years old yet.
Young people's emotions come and go quickly.
Soon, Qiao Yu and the others regained their composure and slowly started to gain fighting spirit.
Looking at the excited faces of the five people, Shen Jianshu couldn't bear it in his heart.
What he didn't tell Qiao Yu and the others was that the Eastern League had never won a championship since the start of the server world.
The best result was only the runner-up, and the last time it was ranked among the top eight.
"That's all, let's see if these five teenagers can create a miracle and carve out a ray of light in that dark sky." Shen Jianshu took a sip of hot tea.
…
Kyoto training ground.
The terrifying battle fluctuations kept spreading, and from time to time, fire and hail shot into the sky.
After a long time, the breath slowly calmed down.
In the training ground, ten young men were sitting around, all looking dripping with sweat. They had obviously just finished training.
This is the largest training venue of Beijing University, and the ten of them are the first and second teams representing Beijing University in the battle competition this time!
It can be said that the ten of them represent the ten strongest people among Beijing University students.
One of them is Qiao Yu's fellow villager Long Xiang.
As the top scorer in the warrior department of the last college entrance examination, Long Xiang was naturally selected as a participant in the combat competition.
"Long Xiang, have you heard? The school seems to have added another team to participate." The man next to him handed Long Xiang a bottle of Fatty Happy Water.
"oh?"
Long Xiang opened the happy water and drank several sips.
"I haven't heard of this. I have been busy with special training recently. I basically know all the juniors and seniors at Beijing University. Who else can participate in the battle competition besides us?"
"It's not the juniors and seniors, it's said to be five freshmen!"
"Pfft! Freshman year?"
Long Xiang squirted out a mouthful of happy water, with a look of surprise on his face.
"Could it be him..."
Soon the training ground welcomed several uninvited guests.
Long Xiang's suspicion was finally confirmed.
"The second team of Kyoto University, march out."
Shen Jianshu shouted softly, and five young people stood up, four men and one woman.
"Let me introduce, these five are your freshmen students, Qiao Yu, Zuo You, Ma Fei, Yang Xiangdi, and Zhao Ziyue."
The people in the second team were confused. They didn't understand why Professor Shen suddenly brought five freshmen to the training ground.
After the introduction, Shen Jianshu looked at the five people from the second team and continued.
"Maybe you are a little confused as to why I suddenly brought five freshmen here. It's very simple. They are here to challenge you."
"Among the five of them and your second team, only one team can participate in the battle competition."
As soon as Shen Jianshu finished speaking, the five people from Peking University's second team looked at Qiao Yu and others with eyes filled with hostility.
They have trained hard for so long and are absolutely unwilling to give up their spot in the battle competition to anyone else.
And the news at the training ground spread quickly.
"Hey?! Have you heard? There are five freshmen who want to challenge the second team in the battle competition!"
"Freshman? Impossible. Although the second team is not as powerful as the first team, it is impossible to be defeated by a group of freshmen!"
"Freshman? You don't know the limits of your abilities! If they can beat the second team, I will live broadcast as a propeller!"
"That's right, if the second team can be defeated by a few freshmen, just go to the toilet and find a few mouthfuls of shit to eat!"
"Upstairs, you are not allowed to feed the special training team members privately!"
No one was optimistic about Qiao Yu and the others, and their tone was full of ridicule and joking. After all, no one who could enter Beijing University was an ordinary person.
They think it is reasonable for a few monsters to crush the same class, but how can a monster challenge the juniors and seniors in the freshman year? How is this possible!
