Chapter 179: Eight-person team battle battle Tiandou
After arriving at the competition venue, Flender, who is the dean, went to the lottery venue for the first time.
Soon after, he returned, and brought good news to everyone.
The opponent of Shrek Academy's third round of eliminations is not strong, and it is also their old opponent in the promotion round.
Faculty of Botany.
"Uh......" Master didn't expect the draw to be such a result, and subconsciously looked at Mu Jing.
After all, they have just dug into the corners of other people's walls, and they are about to face each other in the blink of an eye.
It's a little unkind......
But Mu Jing didn't care at all and said, "It's okay, I don't care." Or, do you want me to play? Okay, I'll do this one. ”
And the master who did not speak: "......"
So in this game, Tang Liu was replaced by Mu Jing. And the eighth contestant of the opponent's botanical academy was indeed at the Soul King level.
However, the eight people on Shrek's side are all Soul Sects, while the Botanical Academy only has two Soul Sects. Therefore, the strength of the two sides is basically equal, not to mention that Shrek has Ning Rongrong, an auxiliary artifact.
Shrek Academy felt a little embarrassed here, let alone the Botanical Academy. Especially when their team leader saw the presence of Mu Jing among the players on the field, he also looked crying and laughing.
It was originally his own student, but now it has become someone else's, and he has turned against his own family.
But all of this is voluntary, so the teacher who led the team didn't know whether to be angry or cry for a while.
The competition started quickly, and under Tang San's rhythm control, as well as the restraint of Mu Jing and Ma Hongjun's flames on all the students of the Botanical Academy, even though they had a soul king, they quickly fell behind.
Then, after everyone worked together to solve the Soul King, the victory of this game was firmly grasped by Shrek Academy.
When they knocked the last Botanical Academy student off the stage, the referee declared their victory.
Since Mu Jing was from the Botanical Academy before, when the Seven Monsters attacked, they only sent the people from the Botanical Academy off the competition stage in a relatively gentle way, never letting them get hurt, and it could be regarded as saving face for the Botanical Academy.
It's just that compared to the embarrassment of Shrek's others, Tang Liu, who didn't play and stayed to watch the game, was still more dignified.
Because, if he remembers correctly, in the original book, the third round of Shrek Academy, under the dark box operation of the Wuhun Palace, was a competition with the Star Luo Royal Senior Soul Master Academy.
Then, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team, which was also a seed team, was against the Soul Hall Advanced Soul Master Academy.
But now, neither game is happening.
Does that mean?
What has quietly changed?
But Tang Liu had an intuition inexplicably, as if this change was aimed at him.
After all, in this way, he does not have the so-called plot advantage.
If it changes a little more ruthlessly, it is completely different from the original book in his memory. Then at that time, he, like every native of the Douluo Continent, would have no idea about the future.
Even if he could speculate on what would happen in the future based on the plots he knew and the various news on the mainland.
But that won't be necessarily accurate.
It's the exact opposite of what he was in before.
Because everything before was inevitable, and what he knew was bound to happen.
So what now?
Tang Liu thought about it carefully.
It seems like...... It's not that important either.
Because no matter what, they will meet the team of the Martial Spirit Palace, and then Xingluo and Tiandou will definitely meet one.
Of course, it is not excluded that the two seeded teams will be faced one after another.
It is not the idea that soldiers will block and water will cover the earth.
It's just that it really doesn't matter that much to him whether it follows the original book or not.
His only goal now is to win the final title.
In that case, it doesn't matter who the opponent is.
It's all about winning anyway.
Tang Liu suddenly reacted.
So he's ...... Buddha, right?
Tang Liu: "Well......"
After figuring it out, Shrek's game was over, so Tang Liu immediately teleported back and began to cultivate, grabbing every remaining minute and every second.
……
After the third round, there are only twenty-four remaining houses.
After two more rounds, the top 16 finalists will be selected.
And in the last two remaining games, Shrek still did not encounter a strong opponent, and even Tang Liu, who was always replaced by Mu Jing, appeared. Even so, Shrek easily won the last two knockout matches and successfully entered the round of 16.
As for Tang Liu, he spent all his time improving his soul power.
Sixteen teams resumed the competition after a full day's rest.
However, the game mechanism of 16-8 has changed to a round-robin format, and then the top eight teams are selected according to the points earned by each team at the end.
In other words, sixteen teams, each team has to play four games, and each win gets a certain number of points, and finally the top eight teams in the points rank to enter the quarterfinals.
Again, this means that from now on, Shrek is likely to meet three seeded teams in a row in four round-robin rounds.
This is undoubtedly the worst-case scenario.
After the start of the game, the opponent in the first round-robin match of Shrek Academy was not strong, and Tang Liu still did not play, and was replaced by Tang Liu.
However, in the second round, they met a seeded team.
Heaven Dou Royal Academy team.
So this time, Tang Liu was sent out.
Although he met a seeded player, with Tang Liu, there was no need to arrange any tactics in this game. Anyway, the master's advice to them was to reduce the exposure of their own strength, and let Tang Liu solve everything as much as possible.
Judging from the currently known news, the eighth person of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team is also a Soul Emperor cultivator.
If Qin Ming hadn't chosen to quit the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, then the eighth person in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team would have been him now.
Although Qin Ming's soul ring is not the best match, it is also from Shrek Academy, which proves that his strength will never be weak. It was only an existence that could bring some trouble to Tang Liu.
It's just that now, the eighth person of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team is not Qin Ming, but another Soul Emperor teacher from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy who is not more than thirty years old.
It can be seen from the previous games of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team that their Soul Emperor is also not the best soul ring match, so his strength should not be comparable to Qin Ming, who was born in Shrek.
That being the case, it shouldn't be that hard to win this game. What's more, Shrek Academy has also won them once before.
Moreover, this time there was also Tang Liu, who they were not familiar with, to appear.
