Chapter 9 Schedule Inference
"Death group?" Rheinfel smiled and said, "How do I feel that you say that every time." ”
"Because it's true every time." Ole shrugged.
"Has there been any change in the group stage? Who are the opponents? Nora asked.
Ole touched the crystal, and the light curtain changed, listing the schedule.
"There are 32 teams in the five major theaters, and four teams are a group to play a point system round-robin, and the top two with the highest points enter the round of 16 knockout rounds." Ole Road.
"Except that there are more teams, there is no difference from the Southern Theater Competition." Nora Road.
"The difference is that the events in the group stage are different." Ole said: "And our opponents are not only the Thousand Nights Academy, but also the old acquaintance Lanchester Academy and the Western champion team, the Moon Shadow King's Academy!" ”
"Lanchester?" Rheinfel raised his eyebrows and said, "It's them again, they are also from the Rosemold family faction, and they must be in league with the Thousand Nights Academy." ”
"Yes, that's exactly what I'm worried about, and there's another problem...... Ole said in a deep voice, "The Moon Shadow Royal Academy, it's very likely that it's also from the Rosemold family faction. ”
"You know all this?" Rheinfel was surprised.
"The economic situation of the Moon Shadow Kingdom was very bad before, and it was only with the help of the Rosemold family that it came out of the 'shadow' shadow, and with this relationship, the Moon Shadow Kingdom was obviously subject to the Rosemold family." Ole said: "And the Wang Family Academy, a directly affiliated institution that is inextricably linked to the royal family, can imagine how the situation is. ”
"Really, isn't it very likely that we will be caught in the encirclement of the cooperation of the three enemies?" Nora Road.
"That's right, that's why I said it's the death group, and it's the death group of the other death groups that are in a worse situation." Ole Road.
"It's okay." Allia looked at the light curtain and said lightly: "Even if we are encircled, we will win." ”
As she spoke, her eyes kept staring at the light curtain, thoughtfully, "Eight groups, is it according to the normal rules, after entering the knockout round, the first four are in the left half, and the last four are assigned to the right half?" ”
"Yes." "The order of the groups is related to the order of the knockout rounds, so we can roughly infer the situation of the knockout rounds from here. ”
"St Iluth is in the second group, which means that we have a high probability of meeting them in the knockout rounds." Arria said.
"The second group has Tiandu College and St. Ilus College, and according to the normal situation, Tiandu College is obviously much stronger than St. Ilus College." Ole said: "This year's Tiandu Academy, together with Garand, is known as the twin heroes of the north and the south, and has the ability to compete with Ishrant and the Divine Light Academy. ”
Ole said, swiping the crystal, and the screen showed a set of data, "This is the betting odds for this tournament in the market, the highest is the Divine Light Academy where the Divine Light Trail has returned, followed by the Ishlander Academy, the Garand Academy, and the Tiandu Academy. ”
"The strength of Tiandu Academy is so strong?" Nora was surprised, "That little 'girl' child is still the right choice?" ”
"Don't underestimate Elushi." Ole said: "She may not have grown up yet, but her potential talent is someone who is known as the 'King of Oblivion' Andres!" ”
"Although Yi Lushi is young, her strength is really good." Rheinfel looked at the light curtain and said casually.
"So it seems ......," said Arria, "if we are going to play St. Irus in the round of 16, we have to finish first in the group stage. ”
"Yes." Ole nodded.
"Why?" Nora was puzzled.
"According to the basic principle of strength distribution, the first place in the first group is paired with the second place in the second group." "So in the first group, if we want to be paired with St. Irus, who is predicted to be the second place in the second group, we have to win the first place. ”
"Oh......" Nora seemed to understand, "but that's just speculation, in case St. Irus wins first place......"
"That's okay too." Ole said: "If they really have the strength to beat Tiandu Academy, they will definitely have the ability to enter the quarterfinals, and we can meet them as long as we reach the quarterfinals, but I think this probability is too low." The strength of Tiandu Academy is recognized as strong, and as the four hot 'gates' of this imperial competition, the probability of an upset is very low. ”
"We're going to get first no matter what." Arria glanced at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "I'm going to deal with St. Iluth with my own hands." ”
When everyone saw Arria's eyes, their hearts were full of joy.
It was the first time they had seen her with such an expression, and in the past, Arria had always been very serious and determined, but this time her eyes were more resolute!
But the determination of grievances!
Rheinfel suddenly understood the reason why Allia wanted to come to the Empire so desperately, and this was perhaps one of the biggest driving forces for her, right?
"We are the first in the group." The corners of Rheinfel's mouth lifted slightly, and he replied with extreme confidence.
The others nodded in unison and responded to Arria.
Aria smiled faintly, as if she felt a little out of shape, and her expression gradually eased.
"Why is there a second group that is first in the north and first in the east? According to the principle of distribution of strength and weakness, the two firsts should not be together, right? Nora hurriedly asked a question to ease the silence for a while.
"Didn't I tell the St. Ilus gang before, because the east has always been weaker." Rheinfel said with a smile: "Another reason is that due to the existence of the imperial capital, the teams in the ministry theater are generally considered to have the strongest comprehensive strength, so they will be evenly distributed to eight groups, and the rest of the theaters will be adjusted according to the way of the jury." ”
"It turns out that you just didn't talk nonsense and pretend." Nora was stunned.
"Nonsense." Rheinfel gave her a blank look.
Arria looked at the light curtain and said, "Can you guess our approximate promotion route?" ”
Hearing this, Ole nodded and said: "Yes, but according to the odds in the market, our Magis Academy is not favored, their prediction is that we will get the second place in the group, meet the Tiandu Academy ranked first in the second group in the round of 16, and then be eliminated." ”
"Hehe, interesting." Rheinfel smiled: "Let's go to the Lower Magis Academy to win and earn him." ”
"Good idea." Nora nodded in agreement.
Ole continued: "If we can win the group and beat St. Ilus in the round of 16, we will meet Tiandu Academy in the quarterfinals, which is very low in the prediction, but the probability of winning is slightly improved. ”
"If we defeat Tiandu Academy......" Rheinfel's eyes swept and the corners of his mouth curled slightly, "The semi-finals will face Suzeren's Ishrante Academy!?" ”
