Chapter 430 - Rub First?
On the third day of the game, Ye Tao didn't see Wei Yueshu appear.
At first, he thought that Wei Yueshu had something to delay. But Wei Yueshu didn't arrive until the end of the all-day game.
Ye Tao couldn't help but feel some sympathy for this poor woman. Back then, she broke with the family in order to protect Old Man Ye. I haven't seen a single relative for twenty years. I finally saw a little hope for the restoration of the relationship. But sadly found that his family was no longer a human being. How can this not make people sigh.
But the Guwu Competition can't be stopped just because there is one less audience. The third matchday was even more exciting.
The opponent Ye Tao encountered was a hard qigong master like Shi Yili. But the hard qigong he practiced was completely different from Shi Yili. His hard qigong is more based on qigong. Use your strong qigong skills to make yourself invulnerable. Because for the first time I met such an opponent. Ye Tao wasted a lot of effort to defeat him. Although a lot of time was wasted. But Ye Tao was very happy. He saw in these people the hope of the revival of Guwu.
Liu Xia was very lucky today. She had a bye this time. Skip the final round of eliminations and advance straight to the finals. People who knew Liu Xia's physical condition thought that Ye Tao must have done it. But how could Ye Tao admit it. He looked at the people who despised him with a smile on his face. "The Ancient Martial Arts Competition is so transparent. And so many people are staring at it. How could I possibly do my own thing. Do not wronged the good people. ”
It's okay if Ye Tao doesn't say it. As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him even more disdainfully! There is no other reason. The rules of the ancient martial arts competition are absolutely not related to the word "transparent". The rules for both the knockout rounds and the finals were not announced in advance. It wasn't until today that everyone knew: Oh, it turns out that we are participating in the qualifiers these days. The real race hasn't started yet.
Because the rules are opaque. Ye Tao, the organizer of the ancient martial arts competition, has been criticized a lot in the past two days. The most blamed on him is how the qualifier bracket came about. Until now, no one knows. It is precisely this that gives Ye Tao the space for insider operations, so that the iceberg beauty has a bye this round. You can recuperate with peace of mind. There is also a reason why there is such an inside story, but no one jumped out directly to scold Ye Tao. Although the bracket is not known how it is generated. But in general it is quite reasonable. There was no situation where two seeded players faced each other in the first and second rounds, and one of them was eliminated.
In the end, the tickets to the finals were well deserved. Nothing to blame. Ye Tao even let out his words. If the eliminated person is not convinced, he can pick a random person to go head-to-head. If you win, you can go directly to the finals. But everyone is very self-aware. Three days of competition is enough for them to see the perception of strength. Even Liu Xia, who was suspected of being "reported", no one dared to underestimate her and challenge.
As long as the final result is reasonable, the qualifying stage is acceptable. But Ye Tao was reluctant to announce the rules of the finals, and the major families did not agree. Ye Tao was alone. The major families will find anyone who has a relationship with him to put pressure on him. Situ Fu has to manage his family's business. So I regret not participating in this year's ancient martial arts competition. But he called Ye Tao at noon today. Sue him, the major families are very dissatisfied with his arrogant approach.
Ye Tao's answer was only one sentence: "If you don't want to, don't participate." ”
Situ Fu didn't hesitate when he saw this. After inquiring a few words about Ye Tao's current situation, he hurriedly hung up the phone and went to do other things. It is not that the other families have not thought of bypassing Ye Tao to hold their own ancient martial arts competition. But this ancient martial arts competition is not something that can be done by anyone who says it. The reason why Ye Tao was able to summon the ancient martial arts masters from all over China to participate in the competition was actually opportunistic. The Suzhou and Hangzhou Clubs have a long history of holding ancient martial arts conferences. Ye Tao used the "popularity" accumulated by the ancient martial arts conference to successfully hold this year's ancient martial arts competition.
Ye Tao won the title of champion of the ancient martial arts competition last year, which also added "orthodox" confidence to this ancient martial arts competition.
It's not impossible for other families to want to hold ancient martial arts competitions. But the end result is likely to be a private entertainment between several Maisons. It's hard to be like the ancient martial arts competition held by Ye Tao. Attract ancient martial arts masters from all over China to sign up.
Because of this, Ye Tao has the confidence to engage in dictatorship in such a game full of heroes. One person is responsible for all the rules of the game.
Ye Tao can actually continue to maintain a sense of mystery. Wait for the finals of the Guwu Competition to start before announcing the competition method of the finals. But in order not to be scolded afterwards, Ye Tao still chose to announce the rules of the finals today. The finals are divided into two phases.
The first stage is still a one-on-one match like the knockout round. Until the last two winners are decided. But the two winners will not directly determine the eventual winner. Rather, move on to the next stage of the competition.
The second stage of the competition was played in the form of a team. The two winners of the first stage of the competition will each form a five-man team. There are no restrictions on who can be selected. The other players who made it to the finals automatically formed a third team. Three teams compete in individual battles, with one team eliminated first. The remaining two teams will face off in the final pinnacle showdown.
After such a competition arrangement was announced, everyone's attitude towards Ye Tao reversed 360 degrees. The people who scolded Ye Tao before all turned him into the sky. The reason is actually quite simple. In terms of personal strength, Ye Tao is privately recognized by everyone as the first ancient martial arts master in China. According to the normal rules of the game, Ye Tao won with little suspense. But the team's approach adds quite a bit of suspense to the game. No matter how strong you are, you can lose the game.
Ye Tao's formulation of such rules of the game is really not the result of dictatorship. His biggest motivation for holding the Ancient Martial Arts Competition was to revitalize the ancient martial arts of China. Therefore, his top priority was how to be more beneficial to the development of Gu Wu. It was only after discussing it with others that he came up with a way to win the game.
In order to win the competition, each family must extensively train and select ancient martial arts talents. And you can't just focus on cultivating one or two direct children. In China, there are countless folk masters. Ancient martial arts masters who are not from a family can also join forces. Defeat powerful families.
Ji Daifu came to Ye Tao's side after reading the rules of the final stage, and he quipped: "You are really heartbroken for the future of Gu Wu." What do you think. Have you chosen your clan? Zhang Zhizhi was curious about what Ji Daifu was looking for Ye Tao at first. Hearing Ji Daifu's words, Zhang Zhizhi's eyes lit up. He also leaned over with a shy face.
Ye Tao hurriedly waved his hand. "Don't think about it. My clan is all together! ”
The two looked at Ye Tao in disbelief. The aggrieved expression seemed to say, "If you look down on us, you can say it directly." Don't look for such a crowned reason. ”
There is a saying that a wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts. Ye Tao found that he hadn't seriously considered the issue of team selection before. The result was: a few days before the start of the finals, Ye Tao was forever surrounded by a group of people, all wanting to join his team and rub the title of "No. 1 Master of Ancient Martial Arts". If you want to say that a real ancient martial arts cultivator comes to ask for a place, Ye Tao doesn't care. But in the end, all cats and dogs came out. Ye Tao is on fire......
