Chapter 35: The Quarters Match

The enthusiasm of the whole Yancheng has not diminished at all, people are talking about every game with relish, the four days of preliminary matches passed quickly, followed by the rematches of each division, and the thirty-two teams directly screened out the top 16 through the knockout round.

The thirty-two teams in the semi-finals are also the same as the preliminary round, and the method is the same, but the time is doubled, the two-day rematch is fleeting, and the birth of the top 16 directly pushes the summit of the five ethnic groups to the highest peak, not only the team of the game needs to seize the time to recover their injuries and abilities, but also need to pay attention to all the movements of the opponent, and the march of the top eight has not changed any way, or with the feeling of a big wave of sand, a knock-out.

Qiu Yu's vision is unbiased, the mysterious black-robed man, the yellow short-haired woman, Li Jie, and the iron man Hu Wei all entered the quarterfinals without exception, while the other regions, although there was not too much controversy, still killed a few dark horses.

Of the six teams sent by Burning Lotus, one team led by Wu Yong rushed to the quarterfinals in the Northeast Division, and unexpectedly, the second team led by Li Ye was eliminated in the Northwest Division.

The four teams in the Northwest Division, led by Han Lingyun, successfully entered the quarterfinals, the third team was led by Jiaya and reached the quarterfinals in the Southeast Division, and the fifth and sixth teams, in the Southwest Division, both teams failed to reach the quarterfinals.

The half-month game almost eliminated all the weak teams, and the remaining teams are basically the leaders of the young generation in the entire Yancheng, not that there are no strong ones in the eliminated teams, and there are also many super strong existences among them, but the element of luck is slightly lacking, which led to the failure to enter the top eight.

Society is like this, it doesn't ask about your experience, it doesn't look at your process, that's how it was in the era of success and defeat, and of course, luck is also part of strength from a certain point of view.

The quarterfinals are just around the corner, and it is precisely because of the birth of the quarterfinals that the entire Yancheng is in an extremely tense situation, and every game below should not be missed.

In the conference room, there were crowds, whether it was the three teams that entered the quarterfinals or the teams that did not enter the quarterfinals, all of them were present, which also made the not spacious conference room slightly crowded, and everyone talked about the event, and there were also those who shook their heads with regret, but this did not affect their attention to the game at all, after all, this is also the biggest game in Yancheng, even if they lose in the game, it is because their skills are not as good as others.

This is also one of the biggest advantages of the Yan people, they respect martial arts and take pride in martial arts, even if they fail, they will not find any more excuses, more often they will only summarize their shortcomings in private and find ways to make up for them, whether this method is cultivation or what.

They can always find a way to solve the problems they encounter, and they will not take a detour, let alone find some objective reasons, and it is precisely because of this advantage that they have become the group with the highest per capita combat power among the five ethnic groups.

Lijie held a few forms in his hand, then put them on the table, and said, "Let's take a look, let's continue after reading." After speaking, he hugged his chest and watched everyone pass the form in their hands, but Qian Yu did not make any sound.

The form didn't take long, it has been passed back to the hands of the Jie, in fact, there is not much content on the form at all, only a few boxes with unfilled names and eight team names, a total of four forms, I read it quickly, many people are very clear about the mood of the team in this group, and the teams in other groups are not too careful, just look at it.

"Everyone has also seen the quarter-finals of the four divisions, and they will enter the quarterfinals from tomorrow, for the rules of the game, I just received the notice of the competition group, and I haven't had time to tell the captains, everyone is there, so I will emphasize it to you" Li Jie looked around and said seriously.

After a short pause, she continued: "We were eliminated directly from the preliminary round, semi-finals, including the selection of the quarterfinals, and this quarter-round match is a two-to-three-game battle."

"Is this uncertainty or what?" Han Lingyun on the side asked bluntly.

"It's not an uncertainty, it's a win-one, there's going to be an extra game," Lijie explained.

"To put it simply, in a quarter of the game, those who win two games in a row will directly enter the top four, and those who lose two games will be directly eliminated, and the first eight teams will be determined by drawing lots, and the four winning teams will directly decide the two teams in the top four through the draw, and the first team that loses will also directly eliminate two teams through this method, and the remaining four teams will also usher in the third game, the winner will enter the top four, and the loser will be the opposite" Li Jie explained again.

Everyone nodded one after another, and there was more perseverance in their eyes, what they wanted was to make everyone have a little more confidence, and continued: "Everyone cheers up and uses their own abilities to meet the next top four competition, and the four divisions will not have any chance to meet in this competition, and they may only qualify for the Five Clans Summit as teammates in the future, so everyone should pay attention to the game of their own group, just do their best, and the captains of the three teams need to arrange something strategic and tactical, come on!"

Without any procrastination, the meeting was dismissed after saying what he wanted to say, which is different from many organizations, many organizations began to talk and say some boundless words, and it was unlikely to end in two or a few hours, which directly showed Lijie's personality, and everyone left the scene, leaving only Lijie, Qian Yu and others, but it also included Lilian, President Liye.

"Finally don't have to be so restrained, the most annoying thing about this and that, and how serious you have to pretend, haha" Qian Yu returned to his usual casualness, crossed his legs, put it on the table, and said slowly.

"Okay, Qiu Yu, now that the top eight have been decided, what do you say next" Li Jie didn't care about the casualness of Qian Yu's performance, obviously everyone was already very clear about his temper, and waited for Qiu Yu's answer after speaking.

"Now it seems that I don't think there is any need to arrange any tactics directly, let's try to be lucky in the first round of draws, our group should be the most competitive group among the four regions" Yan Yu said slowly.

After a long time, he continued: "Tie Ning team, Jie team, and Dark team, which one is not a hard bone, and the remaining four teams are not so easy to solve, but what we need to consider now is not the top eight, even if it is difficult for us, it is not impossible to qualify, and the most important thing now is the final."

Li Jie, Yu Fei, and Li Ye were all silent by Qian Yu's words, their brows furrowed, and Wu Yong closed his eyes, as if thinking about something.

"Why is it the final?" Li Hengchao asked slightly puzzled.

Qian Yu didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Guess what kind of way the final will be?" As soon as these words came out, everyone fell into deep thought, and after hearing this, Li Jie and Wu Yong seemed to think of something, their brows tightened, but they did not speak.

Li Hengchao continued to answer, saying: "I guess it should be a draw, the four teams will face each other in twos, the winning two teams will compete for the first and second places, and the two losing teams will compete for the third place."

"I don't think it's that simple" The person who spoke out against it was Yufei, who has always been very silent.

She continued: "Personally, I think maybe there will be a four-team round-robin tournament directly, one team against the remaining three teams, the champion with three wins, the runner-up with two wins and one loss, the third place with one win and two losses, and the fourth place with all three defeats"

Li Hengchao obviously disagreed, and retorted: "Although there is also such a possibility, it will be more troublesome and take longer."

Wu Yong suddenly shook his head at this time and said, "I think this possibility is the greatest, and the reason is very simple, because we are Yan clans."

"Does this have anything to do with the Yan Clan?" Li Hengchao was obviously puzzled and asked such a sentence.

Li Jie said coldly: "Because the Yan clan is a group that cares most about martial arts cultivation, many people can understand that the winner is determined before the quarterfinals, but when it comes to the finals, it will definitely be the most fair, and with the temperament of the Yan City Lord, it will never be a simple one or two games to determine the champion and runner-up, so I think the method that Yu Fei said may be a great possibility."

"Okay, did you get notified in advance?" Li Hengchao continued to ask.

"It's all said, it's just a guess," Qiu Yu shrugged.

"Qian Yu, don't you don't know anything about the difference between practicing Yi Ji Qi and anything, how do you know a lot about tactics, living beings, including management" Li Hengchao suddenly felt that he couldn't think clearly, and looking at Qian Yu's appearance, he didn't look like a person who had been practicing in seclusion for fifteen years, not only did he have this idea, but everyone had such thoughts in their hearts, and everyone nodded their heads to cater to each other, and it seemed that they would not give up without asking what they were.

Qian Yu looked at everyone helplessly and said, "When did I tell you that I don't know anything else?"

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone looked at Qian Yu in amazement, and Wu Yong asked, "What do you mean, don't you even understand the qi of Yiji?"

"I've always had the spirit of etiquette, but I haven't been exposed to any ranks, I haven't been exposed to the realm or anything," Qian Yu replied leisurely.

Looking at everyone's surprised expressions, he really felt funny, and continued: "Haha, you haven't asked me either, it's just a preconceived idea, thinking that I don't understand the spirit of etiquette, so I don't know anything else."

Only then did everyone reflect and nodded their heads.

Qian Yu said with a smile: "Actually, except for the distinction of Yi Ji Qi, the master has never taught me since I was a child, maybe it is because my cultivation method is too special, but I know a little bit about other things, strategy and tactics, management methods, creature identification, and weapon fighting."

The words that everyone had only been slightly surprised before had really turned into deep surprise now, not only surprised by the breadth of things he understood, but also surprised by his master's monster teaching method.
