On the morning of the second day of the national competition, Mao Xiao met Meng Xi in the room of captain Yan Yan.

At the first glance of Meng Xi, he asked in surprise: "Meng Xi, what's wrong with you, why do you feel sluggish......

Meng Xi yawned and said with a sad face: "Hey, don't mention it, that kid from Hu Lai lied to me that he didn't snore." As a result, he hit louder than Lao Tzu! I was woken up by his snoring, and then I didn't fall asleep for half the night...... I was finally about to fall asleep, and in a daze, I heard a thunderclap on the ground! This kid is snoring! ”

Meng Xi pointed to Hu Lai beside him and said helplessly.

"Huh? Have it? Hulai asked with a confused expression, "How come I don't know?" ”

"Nonsense! How can you hear it when you snore yourself! Meng Xi roared indignantly. That's it, I woke up, and he stopped beating again. Just when I was finally about to fall asleep again, this kid hit again! If I hadn't personally gotten up to confirm it, I would have suspected that this kid was pretending to be asleep and deliberately manipulating me! ”

"Meng Xi, look at what you said, how could I be so insidious?" Hulai spread his hands.

"You're not sinister, who's sinister?" Meng Xi asked rhetorically.

Seeing his good friend so miserable, Mao Xiao sighed and patted him on the shoulder: "I'll go back to my room and give you my soundproof earplugs to use in a while." It was originally to prevent you, but Xiaoyu didn't snore when he slept, so he didn't use it at all. ”

Hu Lai whistled beside him when he heard this, and Meng Xi wanted to strangle him.

At this moment, the other teammates arrived, and soon the room of Team Yan was flooded.

The same thing happened in another room opposite, and the doors of the two rooms were open, making it convenient for everyone to visit the door and communicate with each other.

Some of the team members sat on the edge of the bed, some sat cross-legged on the carpet, others stood right next to them, but many more were all on the bed, and even the bedside table was sitting on the person, holding the lamp - because there was nowhere to put it.

Everyone stared at the TV set that had been turned on to watch the draw ceremony for the upcoming 7th National Championship.

Because of the outstanding performance in the last national competition, Dongchuan Middle School was very high in the final ranking of the last national competition.

They finished in sixth place.

However, this ranking did not have much impact on the results of this draw.

There are no seeded teams in the national competition, and there is no rule that seeded teams cannot meet, everything is completely random, and whoever is drawn is whom.

If you're unlucky and you get the defending champion in the first round, you'll really have a round of the national competition.

Of course, there may also be a drama like Dawning High School, where the fledgling will kill the defending champion and make a name for himself.

It is precisely because of this that the national competition has its own charm, that is, all kinds of accidents.

For this kind of lottery arrangement, even if it is as strong as the defending champion, it is difficult to say that the first round of the game will definitely sit back and relax - what if the champion and runner-up of the last competition are drawn together in the first round?

Therefore, the sixth place in the last competition does not necessarily guarantee that this competition will not be a "round trip".

If the results of the lottery are not out for a moment, everyone will not be at ease for a moment.

The best draw result is naturally to draw a team with average strength, such as Xizi Middle School.

In this way, Dongchuan Middle School can at least guarantee to advance to the top 16.

When it comes to the top 16, everyone has no luck mentality, no matter who they meet, they can only hit it hard, and the possibility of expecting to run into a fish that slips through the net is very small.

As long as it wins the one-eighth finals, even if Dongchuan Middle School equals the results of the last national competition, it can be regarded as completing the task.

However, the dreams of the players of Dongchuan Middle School were soon shattered.

Because their opponent in the first round is the People's Middle School from the capital, the fourth and top four in the last session!

"Oh, the draw for the national competition is out?" Chu Yifan's roommates saw that Chu Yifan was watching the live broadcast in front of the computer, and couldn't help but come up and care.

"It didn't come out completely, only partially." Chu Yifan stared intently at the laptop screen.

At this moment, a name appeared on the screen that was familiar to him:

Dongchuan Middle School.

Chu Yifan's eyes widened suddenly.

I saw that on the big screen on the computer screen, after the four big characters of Dongchuan Middle School flashed out, they shrunk again, flew into the matchup map, and finally fell under another name, forming a first-round matchup with it.

Higashikawa Middle School's first-round opponent is ...... Capital People's Middle School!

"Ah, the fourth ...... last session" The roommate was also stunned for a moment when he saw this result, and then shook his head and sighed.

"Da Chu, it's hard for you in Dongchuan Middle School now."

Chu Yifan looked back at them and asked suspiciously, "Why?" ”

"Why? Don't you know why? Seeing this, the roommates pointed to the screen and said, "That's the fourth in the last session!" ”

"But we were the sixth in the last session." Chu Yifan said.

"Da Chu, it's not me who hit you. Don't you know how you came to be sixth last time? It's up to you, it's up to Rokai. What about the current Dongchuan Middle School? Without you and without Luo Kai, which is the sixth level? ”

"Yes, Da Chu. Lao Wang is right. In fact, the ranking of the last session really can't explain anything, because as soon as the team's core players leave, there are many examples of serious declines in the team's strength...... But the People's Middle School is different, they were fourth in the last session and fifth in the last session. In the past six national competitions, they have had three semi-finals and two quarter-finals, which shows that their results are not fluke...... This is a traditional powerhouse in national competitions! ”

The roommates said one after another.

Chu Yifan patiently listened to their words, but he was not angry, but smiled: "But football is round." ”

When the roommates saw that Chu Yifan was so stubborn, they all screamed and scattered, ignoring him.

Chu Yifan said to them with a smile: "When the time comes, I will take you to watch my juniors' competition!" ”

Then he turned his gaze back to the computer screen, and the live draw continued, but he had already begun to get distracted......

Capital People's Middle School VS Dongchuan Middle School in Andong Province.

The players of Dongchuan Middle School in front of the TV looked at each other and were speechless about the result.

After a long while, Meng Xi turned his head to look at Yan Yan: "Team Yan, our coach is so lucky...... Evil Sect! The Anton Cup was drawn, and the top four of the last session were drawn in the first round, and the first round of the draw of this national competition was also drawn to the top four of the last session...... Is our coach at odds with the number 'four'? ”

"What nonsense!" As the captain, Yan Yan naturally has to maintain the authority of the head coach in front of the whole team, "What does this have to do with the coach's luck?" Didn't he pull it out? ”

Meng Xi wanted to say something, but Hu Lai laughed first: "Meng Xi, you said the opposite, right?" What do you mean by 'we and the four criminals'? I think it's obviously 'four' and we are in conflict. ”

"Where did I say the opposite? Isn't that right? In the first round, he played the semifinals, and the Anton Cup was played by the Provincial Experimental Middle School......" Meng Xi wanted to refute Hu Lai angrily, but before he finished speaking, he stopped by himself, because he realized that he had just ignored a problem.

Seeing him like this, Hulay laughed: "Look, I'm right, right? ”

Mao Xiao also reacted, stroked his palms and smiled: "Hu Lai is right, it's the 'four' who is right to clash with us." The provincial experimental middle school in the top four of the last Andong Cup was eliminated by us in the first round, so what if the first round meets the top four people's middle school in the last year? It doesn't mean that we won't win. ”

Hulay added: "And, ah, who did we win in the second round of the last national competition? Huitang Middle School, they were also the fourth in the last class at that time! ”

"Ouch, you're really ...... say that," Meng Xi took a breath. It turns out that we still have a tradition of playing the fourth? ”

So what's there to worry about? Final four? Lao Tzu is playing in the semi-finals! Hulai shouted.

When he shouted like this, everyone was also cheered.

"That's it!"

"Ollie give!!"

There was a lot of strange screaming in the two rooms.

Sun Yiming sat in his place, leaning back slightly against the back of the chair, looking up at the big screen in front of him.

On the big screen is the bracket of this year's national competition, with animated special effects on the bracket map, and the names of all the participating teams are flashing rapidly.

When the raffle player shouted "stop", the flashing school name was frozen, and the name that was froze was the team that was drawn.

Sun Yiming was not attracted by the latest name, and his eyes were glimpsed to the edge of the screen, where was the result of the first half of the matchup.

Under the name of the football team of the People's Middle School he coached, he firmly stared at the name of "Dongchuan Middle School".

At the same time, in another seat in this venue, Li Ziqiang also looked at that area, but his eyes fell on the words "People's Middle School".
