"Speaking of which, I don't know if it's my bad luck, the opponents I met are getting stronger and stronger, just now, I feel that they are almost at the level of the power list."

Chatting with Qiao Yishu, Yang Chao just thought of this, he was puzzled before, now let's see what she says.

"Hehe, Yang Chao, I suggest you take a good look at the competition system, it doesn't matter if the rest is true, but at least you must always know the rules of the game, right?"

Qiao Yishu was used to Yang Chao's "ignorance", but he still suggested that he find out, at least to know those basic matters.

"It's not like you're here, anyway, you know, if there's anything I don't understand, I'll ask you."

"But what if I'm not with you one day?" Qiao Yishu asked subconsciously, but after speaking, she instantly blushed, because the words themselves were ambiguous.

"Huh?" Yang Chao was also very surprised and didn't know how to respond.

"Ahem, Yang Chao, in fact, the problem you just said has nothing to do with your luck, according to the rules of the selection competition, the opponents you encounter will be stronger and stronger."

"Is there a rule for this?"

"Well, there is, but it is not explicit, according to the rules, except for the first game, all players are randomly paired, from the second game onwards, Zhi Brain will match you with a suitable opponent according to your results."

"What do you mean?"

"That is to say, um~ for example, let's take you as an example. In the first match, you get the 'qualified', then, in the second game, your teammates and opponents will also get the 'qualified' player in the first match. And so on, when you play the third game, you will meet opponents who will have the same results as you. ”

"And if you think about it again, to be able to get two 'qualified' in a row like you, and in such a short period of time, its strength will definitely not be weak."

"I see, but if I don't get the 'pass', will the opponents I meet in the future become weaker?" Yang Chao then asked.

"Nope! This is a knockout game, the fundamental purpose of which is to eliminate most of them, so your opponent will never become weaker, only stronger, and if your strength can't keep up, then the result will only be eliminated. ”

"So that's the case, oh yes, if it goes on like this, by the time it comes to the second stage, how many people will be left?"

"Less than 1000!" Qiao Yishu

"What! So little? ”

These 1,000 people seem to be a lot, but compared to the total number of millions, it is a pitiful few.

"Well, that's how it is, it's very cruel, but the academy has taken good care of us, at least giving us three chances."

"Alas~ That's cruel enough, I think, many classmates may have been preparing for a year, but in the end they could only play three games."

"That's no way, the school team of an academy is only twenty people at most."

Speaking of this, the two of them were a little emotional, and they also chatted for a long time, so they ended the phone call.

And time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the first day of the trial has ended, and the campus online is full of wailing.

On this day alone, a large number of students were eliminated, and if you were only a freshman or sophomore, it might be a little better, after all, you still have time to work hard and wait for the next opportunity, but for those juniors and seniors, this may mark the end of their esports careers, and maybe, they will never play Elder Guardian again.

In this way, the depression in their hearts can be imagined.

Fortunately, after all, this is only the first day of the selection competition, and most of the eliminated students are freshmen and sophomores, and the academy is also very experienced and has done a lot of preventive measures, with the help of Zhibrain, it is enough to control the situation.

But if you are depressed, you have to vent it, don't you?

Since it's not okay to smash or drink, it's always okay for me to post on the campus Internet and scold a few words in a more "polite" way.

And after coming to the campus network, they will quickly find that there are many people like them, and even worse than them, there are also many people, for example, some people are too nervous, can't bear the pressure, and faint during the game, and for example, some people miss the game because of diarrhea and are directly judged to fail by the brain.

However, these are all unexpected situations that occur relatively rarely, and are more often the result of mistakes like hand-skating and picking the wrong hero, or altercations during a match.

In short, there are a lot of people, and all kinds of strange things will happen.

Of course, it is not only these students who want to vent their emotions when they visit the campus network, in addition to them, more students enter the campus network to check information, and among this part of the students, there are a small number of students who are very concerned about Yang Chao's situation.

Therefore, they naturally went to watch the video of Yang Chao's game today, and were either surprised or surprised to find that Yang Chao had already been promoted.

As soon as this news came out, on the first day without well-known players, it was the most popular hop information, and it was quickly pushed to the homepage, which attracted more people's attention and discussion.

And late that night, I don't know which classmate it was, after reading this news, I had an idea on a whim, and made a post, but I didn't expect it to become popular quickly.

The content of his post is also very simple, roughly asking, in addition to Yang Chao, are there any other freshmen who have been promoted?

This question seems to be difficult to answer, but some people reacted quickly and immediately came up with a way, among the freshmen, the strongest and most likely to advance to the next round of the selection competition are, of course, those students on the potential list.

So, someone went to check the player who is currently ranked first on the potential list, and now the number one player is Xiong Dabao, whose result is one win and two defeats, and only one "qualified" in three games, and his performance is not good.

And when he announced the results, it aroused the enthusiasm of the students, and they joined the ranks of students to check the results of the potential list.

There are many of them, even if there are quite a few people on the potential list, the results will come out soon, and after special statistics, the answer to this post will also come out.

It's a pity that so far, except for Yang Chao, there is really no freshman student who can be promoted, of course, they all still have a chance, and some students who perform well have already got two "qualified", as long as they work hard tomorrow, they will probably succeed.

And this result highlights Yang Chao's strength, and proves that he is the No1 among the freshmen of Chuzhou College, and there is basically no controversy.

On the second day, the first stage of the selection competition continued to be hot, and on this day, a large part of the students could decide the results.

But that night, when the students went to check the post again, they were very surprised to find that except for Yang Chao, there was still no freshman who could be promoted, and it can be seen that most of the potential list players have been eliminated.

This came as a surprise to many people, because, in the previous trials, although no freshman students were able to successfully enter the school team, this was only to advance to the second round of the competition, and there were still people who could do it.

In this regard, some people posted some sensational posts, with titles such as "The Worst Class of Freshmen", "The Level of Chuzhou College is Declining Year by Year", etc., of course, in these posts, they all want to add, "Except for Yang Chao".

But at noon on the third day, which was also the end of the first round of tryouts, these remarks were self-defeating, because there were finally freshmen who broke into the third round, and several of them popped up at once.

Like Di Mingxuan, Peng Jinsong, and Lu Zhendong, they are all players on the potential list, and now they have successfully fought their way out of the encirclement and successfully advanced to the second round.

As for the top 10 players in the potential list, such as Xiong Daxiong Er and Gao Yang, they have all lost, and none of them have been spared.

In general, the level of performance of this year's freshmen is still similar to that of previous years, and if Yang Chao, who was easily promoted, is added, it will even surpass the performance of previous freshmen.

Through this competition, everyone also has a deeper understanding of their own level, and then they can set goals and work harder.

As for whether any freshman contestant can pass the second round of selection, everyone's attitude is basically the same, except for Yang Chao, the others are basically hopeless, even if it is Yang Chao, the chance is slim.

Why?

This is not because they are arrogant, but because they all know that in this second round of the selection competition, those "seeded players" are finally going to play, and they are the real elites of Chuzhou Academy.

Compared with these people, the championship of the Pioneer Internet Cafe Grand Prix won by Yang Chao is not worth mentioning, but it is too shabby.

Which of these elites has not won the championship?

Not to mention the Internet café competition, it is a national competition held on a grand platform, and someone has won the championship, this is a completely different level of competition, facing the whole country, its difficulty can be imagined.

And what about Yang Chao, what does he think? After the first round, what is his mentality, is he still so confident?

The answer is yes, he is very confident, but, in the absence of any knowledge of his opponent, his confidence is actually a little blind, and fortunately, now, there is Qiao Yishu by his side.

That is, on the night after he was promoted, Yang Chao invited Qiao Yishu to dinner, and of course, Xiao Youyou would definitely go with him.

And under Qiao Yishu's patient and meticulous narration, Yang Chao understood that he was still a little underestimated before, although he actually attached great importance to it, and also foresaw that he might encounter difficulties, but he still obviously underestimated his seniors.

Therefore, in the next two days, Yang Chao changed his previous relaxed attitude, seized the time, and made final preparations.
