Chapter 108 Arrangements before the match
"Master Teng, this is a bit unusual." Peng Lang of Shanyin City said to the governor Teng Shun, with Mi Qiu of Hejiang City standing next to him.
"Yes, it's understandable that An Guogong was so generous. But Lei Gai, Zeng Qing, and that Shi Heng all spent a lot of money to bet Ding Kui. What kind of game are they playing?" Teng Shun was a little puzzled.
"Do you think they are releasing smoke? I heard that Nie Ling from the Nie family in Black Earth City is very good and can tie with the seed players from Huling City. Could it be that they brought Ding Kui out to protect Nie?
Ling?" Miqiu put forward his own opinion.
"It's possible," Peng Lang glanced at Nie Zhen in the distance, "According to what you said, Nie Ling really fought hard and overcame An Xiang in Huling City. Black Earth City will advance several places this year."
"If An Guogong hadn't intervened, according to the past rules, maybe we would have arranged Ding Kui into the strongest seed group. But the old man sent someone here, who dares to deal with Ding Kui during the draw?
If they plan this way, I'm afraid they will make a mistake this time." Fujisumi pondered for a while and said.
"How will the Ding family arrange it? He is from our white lottery group." The players in Hejiang City this year are average, and Mi Qiu is more concerned about the lottery arrangements.
"I have already thought about it, let Ding Kui face the seed player in Dong'an City. If Ding Kui really has some ability, the people in Dong'an City can't stop him, and our people don't have to fight with him; if he doesn't have the ability,
Then you can’t blame us, the worst seeded players among the ten teams are from Dong’an City.” Fujisumi pinched his beard and said.
Seeded players will be arranged in the group stage of each county competition.
The top ten seeded players in the guild rankings will not be placed in the same group, nor will the bottom ten seeded players be placed in one group.
As for which of the top ten players the bottom ten seeded players will meet, this is a bit particular.
The Pingzhong County Knights Guild is very busy. The county guild, including people from the city guilds, are making final preparations for the county competition.
President Teng Xiang accompanied Long Shen, the special envoy of the Wangzhou branch of the Kingdom Knights Association, to inspect the preparations for the draw.
The next president of the county guild, Teng Yan, did not have enough experience and qualifications to host the national knight competition. Teng Xiang postponed going to the capital Senate to accept the knighthood and stayed in Pingzhong County to preside over the last knight competition during his term.
"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Teng. Originally, you should be enjoying the blessings in your own territory at this time, but now you are working hard with me. I really admire you." Special envoy Long Shen said with emotion.
"Brother Long, why are you being so arrogant? This is not the first time we have cooperated. If Teng Yan were to do it, I don't know what would happen. The days of enjoyment will be long in the future. This is the last time for us brothers to cooperate.
." The Vine Elephant's face was glowing red.
"With Brother Teng here, I feel relieved about the competition. You haven't made any mistakes in so many county competitions. I'm just going through the motions and showing off.
Okay, everything here is well prepared. I'm going to visit the governor and say hello, so I won't bother Brother Teng to accompany me." Long Shen took one last look at the black box used for drawing lots.
"Well, Brother Long, please go slowly. I won't send you away because of my brother."
After seeing off Long Shen, Teng Xiang planned to return to his residence. When passing by the contestants' residential area, he stopped, as if remembering something, glanced at the contestants' residence, then turned and walked towards the row of houses.
Ding Kui caught a bug and was practicing hypnosis in his room.
Suddenly he heard footsteps approaching from far away, and he pricked up his ears to listen.
Not long after, there was a knock on his door.
"Hello, President Teng, please come in and sit down." Ding Kui was a little surprised by Teng Xiang's arrival.
Ding Kui and Teng Xiang had a brief acquaintance when Master Gong Lianggu was recruiting his disciples.
"Haha, I said you would soon gather fighting spirit. I was right, Ding Kui." Ding Kui became a member of the Knights Guild, and Teng Xiang also changed his title.
You're not just here to take credit, are you? It's been almost two years since this happened. Ding Kui murmured in his heart, and said: "President Teng is rich in experience, and his words can make the juniors open up. The kindness of the president's guidance
, I’m really ashamed that the juniors haven’t had time to repay each other.”
"Hey, it's my business to give you some advice, so why should I repay you? Ding Kui, what kind of fighting spirit do you have now?" Teng Xiang asked with a smile on his face.
Sure enough, he just came to test my strength. Ding Kui said with a smile on his face: "I am now a trainee knight in the later stage. Is there any way to quickly advance to the sword fighting knight? Please give me some advice, Mr. Chairman."
"What?" Teng Xiangxiang was so quiet that even his local accent came out. He pinched his fingers and calculated, "I heard that it has only been a little more than a year and a half since you were promoted, and you are already a trainee knight in the later stage?! You have a fighting spirit!"
In the history of Pingzhong County, the improvement rate is not only the fastest but also ranks in the top three."
"The top three, they seem to be very powerful." Ding Kui rolled his eyes.
Teng Xiang laughed out loud and cursed: "Huh? What does it look like? I don't know whether to say you are arrogant or ignorant. This is already very impressive. You are the first-class genius in our Shaodian country."
"Fortunately, I didn't practice any magic. I am a first-class figure in Shaodian Kingdom?" Ding Kui pretended to say to himself.
"I'm just saying, why did the master pay attention to you? Fortunately, I was vigilant and reminded you in time, which almost caused the loss of a rare genius in the history of Pingzhong County." Teng Xiang was grateful for his original care, "Don't be too anxious to advance to the fighting blade.
Knight, you must lay a solid foundation now and raise your meridians to the limit. Only in this way will you have a strong foundation, and your success rate in attacking the Fearless Knight and Dominant Knight will be higher in the future."
Seeing that his words were serious and thoughtful, unlike the disguised Teng Xiang, Ding Kui almost told him that all three of his meridians had been raised to the limit, but he held it back in the end.
"Junior has learned a lesson, thank you President for your guidance again." Ding Kui bowed to Teng Xiang.
"You can repay me by being down-to-earth and improving your strength. Okay, you can rest. I wish you good results in the competition." After saying that, Teng Xiang left Ding Kui's room.
On October 4, 4869, the autumn weather was high, the wind was gentle and the sun was bright, and there were white clouds like cotton wool floating in the blue sky.
One hundred players wearing various training uniforms, preparing to participate in the Pingzhong County Knight Competition, lined up neatly at the County Knights Association playground.
Stands were built around the large playground, and ten circular playing fields were divided into two rows, with five in each row.
Today is the draw day for the "First Stage of the National Youth Knight Competition". There are no spectators entering the venue to watch. Except for the players and guild personnel, they are the nobles of Pingzhong County. Of course, there is also a branch of the State Knights Association.
