Chapter 278: The First Round of Knockout Competition Part 1
Several children looked at each other, their eyes involuntarily falling on Xia Ling.
If Ren Yixing is already a strong person in the spirit refining realm, wouldn't it mean that Xia Ling just blocked the attack of the strong spirit refining person?
Zilong and the others looked at Xia Ling with an inexplicable look. Because of this girl's assistance, they were able to cooperate with Yu Yue's light of life and realize the spirit refining realm several times in advance. Because of this, they were able to succeed so smoothly.
After advancing to the current level, although he ultimately failed to take the step of soul refining before the competition, reaching the peak of soul gathering is already quite rare.
However, Xia Ling's own strength has never really been shown. Regarding this, the little girl did not want to mention it more. Although the Dragon and Tiger Team members were curious, they were inconvenient to ask more questions.
Could it be that Xia Ling has advanced to the level of spirit refining?
Elder Lin didn't pay attention to everyone's eyes, he still introduced to the children worriedly.
"Let's not talk about rewards for now, just treat it with a normal attitude. The Continental Competition is the highest-level competition among various imperial academies. It is an honor for you to participate."
"I already knew the rules of this competition when I just reported it. There are a total of seventy-six empires participating this time, and there are more than two hundred and twenty teams. Although the number of people has doubled, the competition method is the same as before.
Basically the same, each team still has a maximum of five people, and the overall strength of each team will be tested on the field."
"After today's report, each team will be arranged to major high-end inns in the Imperial City. In principle, no communication between participating teams is allowed outside the stadium. The empire will also arrange guard handles for each team's residence. Competition
It is divided into three rounds: preliminary round, semi-finals, and grand prix. The preliminary round alone will take five days, and tomorrow is the first day of the preliminary round."
"The preliminary round is also called the knockout round, which means that the loser will be eliminated directly. The competition method is a five-on-five team battle, but the opponents of the competition are not completely randomly determined. The organizers of the competition will follow the rules of the previous competition.
According to the ranking, all participating empires are divided into five tiers, and the battle list is selected by drawing lots among the same tiers in advance. However, you can rest assured that teams from the same empire in the knockout round will not be arranged to compete."
"The preliminary round lasts for five days, and each day is a competition between one class. The knockout round of each day will end after the top ten are selected. A total of fifty teams will be selected to enter the semi-finals in the preliminary round. The semi-finals will start on the sixth day. The competition format
It is a round-robin competition. The fifty teams will not be assigned opponents at this time, but will be divided into ten groups by completely random drawing. Five teams in each group will compete in rounds. The team with the highest winning rate will be qualified to enter the Grand Prix."
"As for the final Grand Prix, if we can really get to that point, I will tell you more. The top priority is that both our teams must try to pass the preliminary round!"
"Elder Lin... It's easy to talk about the rules, but you don't seem to have much confidence in us..." Zhang Teng stuck out his tongue and made faces with Yu Yue and others.
"Let's do our best! But our enemies in the first stage won't be too strong because..."
"Ah? Could it be..." Seeing Elder Lin's embarrassed look, Zilong and others stared at him.
"Ahem... Tomorrow is the fifth level, which is the weakest level of confrontation. According to the record of the previous session, we will be placed in the fifth level this time." Elder Lin's eyes drifted to the other side.
"As expected..."
"Elder Lin, can some members of each team be exchanged during each competition?" At this time, Chunjie asked abruptly.
"Haha, I know what you are thinking! Unfortunately, no, even if it is the same empire, the roster of each team is fixed and cannot be exchanged." Elder Lin smiled and stroked Chunjie's head.
.
"Brother, you have to have confidence in our second team!" Disappointment flashed through Zhang Teng's eyes, but he immediately laughed and patted Chunjie on the shoulder and said, "Our second team has practiced the art of combined attack.
, I won’t do it if you come in instead!”
After nearly a year of training, the relationship between the children of the two teams has gradually changed from confrontation and competition to working together.
Yu Yue discussed with Xia Ling time and time again, hoping to use the light of life to help the members of the second team, but unfortunately this little girl firmly disagreed. Without her assistance, the light of life cannot be used indiscriminately, and the Dragon and Tiger Team can only
Stick to your oath and protect this secret carefully.
After more than half a year, the members of the second team are still lingering in the middle stage of gathering spirits. This is considered a very good situation, and it was achieved with the support of the empire's large amount of resources.
"That's right, you team 1 should work hard, we will also try our best not to embarrass the empire!" Su Xiaoge is the captain of the second team. He is usually taciturn, but now he has a rare smile.
For some high-level monks, this competition may be nothing more than child's play, and the trial in the devil world can attract the attention of many powerful people. But for these children, it is a challenge in their lives so far.
A huge challenge.
There is no news about Jiajun, Jiaming's disappearance, the devil group's conspiracy... each and every heavy burden is placed on the hearts of the young children of the Dragon and Tiger Team.
With more than enough heart but not enough power, Zilong and the others could only bear it silently after witnessing this. In the silent depression, they silently chose every possible way to fight and grow. From the futon oath to risk life and death, to risking the use of living beings
The light has improved their strength and experienced thrilling experiences again and again. They have walked on thin ice until today.
Maybe other imperial teams have better resources and stronger strength, but no team will make them timid!
The members of the Dragon and Tiger Team firmly believe this in their hearts. They never want to mention anything that is suppressed in their hearts, but the spirit of hard work is shown all the time. The members of the second team who have been with them for nearly a year,
They are all subtly infected by this spirit.
In this kind of infection and mutual progress, the children of the two teams abandoned the strangers and barriers and became good partners.
"Fellow allied colleges, our empire will now send guards to lead and escort you to different inns to rest!" A loud voice passed through the noisy venue and reached everyone's ears clearly.
"Where is Fei Ling? Didn't he arrive first? Why hasn't he come yet?" Elder Lin frowned after hearing this and asked quickly.
"This... we don't know either!" Zilong and others looked at each other.
"Excuse me, are you the representatives of the Dongchen Empire?" Before I could say more, a young armored guard came over.
"Ah, we still have a teammate who hasn't arrived yet, can we wait a little longer?" Zilong said quickly.
"Fei Ling from the Dongchen Empire team has already gone to the inn first. If you are looking for him, you can go there with me now."
"What?! Did that kid go to the inn and lie down first?" Yu Yue yelled angrily.
"This... please come with me!" A strange look flashed through the guard's eyes, and he hesitated slightly. (To be continued.)
