It must be said that the combination of Tong Yinxin and the younger brother of the system, the way and method of looking at the problem, the angle, the degree of depth and other aspects, are far from what ordinary cultivators can imagine. Everyone is still accustomed to staying at the surface level, which is completely incomparable.

"In the preliminary stage, the top ten team members will be determined, and they will form a delegation to participate in the Kingdom Elite Disciple Competition. Then the top 10 will play the final to determine the specific position of each team member. ”

"Prepare the supplementary method, and the top two in the group can be considered for the first preliminaries. This is an alternative to this scenario. ”

The elders were deep in thought, the first option seemed simple, but with the addition of alternatives, there were many more variables. The point is, people are inexperienced with this and don't know what to do better.

Elder Wang endured it for so long, and finally spoke again: "Originally, it was a knockout tournament with each round of draws, why did it suddenly change to a group competition this time?"

When everyone heard this, they realized that it was no wonder that something was wrong, but although everyone felt the same way, they all did not say anything.

Deacon Hong replied, "That kind of competition method is simple and crude, and there are obvious loopholes. ”

Elder Wang stubbornly asked, "What are the obvious loopholes?"

Deacon Hong said: "If it is a kingdom competition, there are tens of thousands of players, and the preliminaries are held in a single-elimination system, which is a last resort. We don't have a lot of people and we don't have a lot of time, so we should make the opportunities more equal for all participants and create a more level playing field. ”

This is something that everyone has never heard of, and it is very refreshing. In fact, having said so much, it is just that the single-elimination system is not fair, and the chances are relatively large, and some extremely powerful players are likely to be eliminated halfway through and will not enter the finals at all.

In the past, the qualifiers in Emerald Wood City always used a single-elimination system, and it was not uncommon for strong players to meet strong opponents, and it was not uncommon for them to go out early. The saddest thing is that some sects only have one disciple with high hopes, who was originally strong enough to rush into the top few, but they were eliminated in advance.

Such a blow is too heavy, the situation is serious, and it may even have a great negative impact on the player's future cultivation prospects.

After saying a few words in a twist and turn, some of the other elders understood the vague meaning and immediately cheered. Without him, everyone was originally very unhappy to see the Cuimu faction, but now they find that the group preliminaries competition system has the hope of breaking the dominance of the Cuimu faction, can everyone be unhappy?

"What's the benefit of just being divided into a few groups?" Elder Wang was unconvinced.

Deacon Hong was confident, "There are four people in each group, and they also give up the elimination round-robin tournament and change to a round-robin match, where each person has to play against the other three people, and the final score is calculated according to the points to determine the ranking." ”

Everyone was shocked, these were new tricks that they had never heard of.

Elder Yu asked for everyone, "What's the matter with the points?"

Deacon Hong replied, "For every win, you will earn one point, and if you lose one, you will earn zero points." The person who accumulates three points in the end must be the first place. This is a common scenario. ”

Elder Yu hurriedly asked, "What is that uncommon situation?"

Deacon Hong replied, "It is common for the first place to be 3 points, the second place to be 2 points, the third place to be 1 point, and the fourth place to be 0 points. Uncommonly, the fourth place has 0 points, and then there are three people who are all 2 points, and all three people are two wins and one loss, A wins B and D loses to C, B wins C and D loses to A, C wins A and D loses to B, and the three wins and loses in a cycle. In this way, A, B, and C cannot directly rely on points to separate specific rankings. ”

Everyone listened attentively, and Elder Yu asked again, "What should I do then?"

Deacon Hong replied, "In this way, the three of them are evenly divided, and they are tied for first place for the time being." Then, look at the three match records of each of the three. Take a look at how long it took to win or lose each game, see if you have been warned for negative play, if you have committed any fouls, etc. ”

"All of those behaviors, in common cases, don't matter, and in the case of ties, these factors become the option to deduct points separately. The three people are tied and enter the stage of re-deducting points, and the ranking with fewer points is ranked first. This brings us to the rules of the game that has not yet been played. ”

The elders thought about it carefully, and they all felt the weight, these plans were very rigorous and thoughtful, and they asked themselves, if it were them, they would definitely not be able to come up with such a high-quality plan for a while.

Elder Wang continued to try to pick and choose: "How many games will be played in each group, are there so many qualified and non-suspicious referees?"

Deacon Hong replied indifferently: "There are not twelve games in each group, but six. Just to name it, it's clear. The matches of A are, A B, A C, A D, three games. B's game, B C, B D, two games, B A, B A's game already exists, and it cannot be double-counted. In the same way, there is only one game between the two of them. ”

Everyone carefully calculated in their hearts, ah, sure enough!

"The referee problem, if only eight elders are used, it should be that there are too many games, and the number of people is not enough, even if the Demon Source Sect Sect Masters and Hall Masters add more, it may not be able to solve the problem. ”

"In this way, we switched solutions. Deacon Hong talked eloquently, and admired Tong Yinxin in his heart.

Elder Wang was very tired, "How to solve it?" At this moment, he was not only worried about the referee, but also felt that everything was vague and completely messed up.

Deacon Hong smiled secretly, "There is a perfect solution to the referee problem, let's not discuss it for the time being, if we continue, then we will definitely jump directly to the rules of the second part." How about moving on to the four grouping options first?"

Everyone immediately felt that their heads were big, and one plan was still dizzy, there were four of them, when would they be able to study and understand?

Here in the Foreign Affairs Hall, the elders study the schedule of the game, as well as the rules of the game, referee issues, etc., which will not be studied on a certain day, and it must be a protracted battle, and it may not be possible to complete it in three days or two. It doesn't matter if you can't finish it during the day, just drink and brag at night, and continue the next day, what's the hurry?

Let's talk about the ten core disciples of the Cuimu Sect delegation. Not to mention anything else, Elder Wang's mood was heavy, and a series of unsmooth encounters to the Demon Source Sect had already made these delicate sons with their eyes above the top very unhappy. The next morning, the bad things happened again.

In the new courtyard, everyone doesn't care about other martial arts facilities such as stone locks and all kinds of ordinary weapons; no one can go here to practice martial arts, and everyone mainly focuses on spells. As long as there is a cultivation room, it is enough.

The cultivation room had already been arranged yesterday, and there were also primary spirit gathering arrays, and all of them were installed with spirit stones.

Everyone thought that if they practiced casually for a day or two, it would be time for the official competition. Unexpectedly, in just one night, the Spirit Gathering Array had already stopped. It turned out that the spirit stones had all run out of energy. Obviously, the spirit stones installed before have already been consumed!

Everybody's angry! It's too much of a bully. There are also people who advocate calmness, simply install their own spirit stones, continue to cultivate, and wait. Naturally, there was a total opposition, and everyone was clamoring to ask for an explanation.

They didn't continue to cultivate the true element, they were all reviewing spells, and it stands to reason that the consumption of spirit stones could not be very fast.

Overnight, the spirit stones were all exhausted, which can only show that the installed spirit stones must have been close to exhaustion!

As soon as they were discharged from the hospital, they saw the yawning eagles.

The two of them had cold faces, "What's the matter, what's the matter? I don't talk about sleeping in the morning, what's the matter, are you hungry?"

"Or, let's pay out of our own pockets and invite the senior brothers of the Cuimu Sect to have another drink?"

These words were too damaging, and the ten senior brothers were immediately fooled, and they were all so angry that they were thunderous and excited.

Their eldest is named Li Xuewen, who is still relatively stable. He stopped everyone, suppressed his anger and stepped forward to negotiate alone: "Is your lion boss here?" call him here, and I will ask him something. ”

"Oh, I'm sorry. Eagle Seven smiled slickly, "Old Lion, he drank too much last night, and he will still fall asleep." Besides, he's only the second child now, and the eldest has changed. Now our boss is the copper boss. ”

Li Xuewen was stunned, "Boss Tong, who is that, why haven't you heard of it?"

Ying Ba said: "It's okay, we'll introduce you next time." If there's anything, let's talk to our brothers first. The two of us are in charge of serving your guests from the Emerald Wood Sect. ”

Li Xuewen didn't want to cause unnecessary conflicts, so he asked, "We just practiced for a night, why, the spirit stones were all exhausted?"

The spirit stones installed on the primary spirit gathering array, if they were complete and unconsumed at the beginning, should be able to be used continuously for at least two or three days and nights. If you are cultivating the True Yuan, the continuous use time will be much shorter, and the Emerald Wood Sect's practice spell should take a lot longer.

In any case, just one night is not normal, and it is unjustifiable.

When Ying Qi heard this, he immediately smiled: "Oh, is that so?

Li Xuewen was furious: "How can you say that it's normal?"

Eagle Eight Interface: "Senior Brother Li is angry, angry." The Evil Sect is not as good as your Sect, who doesn't know that your Cuimu Sect has a great cause? Our Demon Source Sect can't compare with you. ”

Ying Qi saw that Li Xuewen's expression was wrong, so he hurriedly took it over and said "Blame us for not paying attention, the handymen may cut corners." Otherwise, how about we invite everyone to have a good meal and drink?"

Li Xuewen was furious, what kind of mess is it? When we are just wine bags and rice bags, we just keep saying that we are invited to eat and drink, eat and drink?

"Where is your copper boss?" Li Xuewen was also impatient, "I can't tell you clearly." Otherwise, call your stone hall master to speak. ”

"Shi Hall Master, they are busy," Tong Yin Xinqiao came over silently, lazily picking up the stubble, "Their elders are all in a meeting to study business, but they don't have time to come over and take care of the trivial matters between our disciples." ”
