On February 14th, Ning Fan and the five received a notice that the group stage group information came out. There were 220 teams that signed up for the competition, but 110 were eliminated in the qualifiers on the first day, and 55 in the qualifiers on the second day, and now there are only 55 teams left in the group stage. Once in the group stage, the format of the tournament is much more formal, with only three members per squad per game. There is no time limit for the match, as long as all three members of the team admit defeat or lose the ability to play, then the opposing team wins the game. The game adopts a single-game winning system, which is not very fair, but it is more of a test of the players' on-the-spot performance.

The group stage is based on a point system to determine the ranking, with two points for a win, one point for a draw, and no points for a loss. Each squad must play one match with four other squads, with five squads in each group playing in a round-robin for a total of 10 matches. After playing 10 games, it is time to compete for their respective points, and the top three with the highest points qualify. In other words, the chance of qualifying for the group stage is 60%, which is quite large. After the group stage, the top three teams in each group qualified, with a total of 11 groups and exactly 33 teams. Since it is 33 teams, it is necessary to rank it as a whole, according to the points obtained by each team from high to low, and the last two are the 32nd and 33rd places to play an extra game again, and the winner enters the following game, and the loser should do what to do. If the last teams with the same number of points in the statistics have more than one team with the same number of points, then all the teams with the same points will play an extra match until the final winner is determined, and the winner will participate in the following knockout round. That's exactly 32, which is the top 32.

After the round of 32, it will be time to qualify. Qualifying is also carried out in groups, at this time the 32 teams will be disrupted and regrouped, divided into 8 groups, each group has four teams round-robin games, each group has a total of 6 games, after the end of the 6 games, the top two teams with high points qualify for the round of 16 games, the round of 16 games are more cruel, the first place in each group faces the second place in the other groups. For example, the first place in Group 1 faces the second place in Group 2, so the group position is crucial in the group stage of the round of 32. Since the round of 16, the format of the tournament has changed, the game is no longer a one-game winner, but has become a best-of-three system, with one member from each team participating in a single game in the first game, two members from each team participating in a double match in the second game, and three members from each team participating in a team battle in the last game. Whichever team in the match takes the first three wins will have the game over.

The winning team in the round of 16 will then participate in the draw ceremony for the quarterfinals, and the next match will be played according to the random matching results. The 1/8 format is the same as the Round of 16 format, which is a best-of-three format. The team that wins the quarterfinals will be able to participate in the semi-finals below.

The format of the semi-finals is different from the previous one, and it has become a best-of-five system. The original one-man duel has been increased to three one-man duels, which shows the individual strength of the players. The winner of the semi-finals will be able to participate in the finals. Losing in the semi-finals for the third and fourth place spots. I have to say here that as long as the team that enters the top 16 has prizes to get, but the prizes that enter the 16 are not as strong as those that enter the eighths finals, those who enter the eighths finals are not as good as the semi-finals, those who enter the semi-finals are not as good as the finals, and those who enter the finals are not as good as the champions.

With the format out of the way, let's take a look at the results of the current group stage grouping. There are a total of 55 teams participating in the group stage, with a total of five teams in each group, for a total of 11 groups. Ning Fan and their blue enchantress were assigned to Group 7. Once you enter the group stage, you can use the name of your squad instead of the previous number.

Ning Fan and the five of them sat in the cafeteria while eating while checking the information of the other teams in their group. Just now, a member of the student union secretly asked a few people if they wanted the information and personnel information of each group in the group competition, Ning Fan and a few people bought a set each with a half-believing attitude, it was really dark, and a few thin pieces of paper cost 50 silver coins, fortunately, Ning Fan, the 'rich second generation', was there, Ning Fan threw him three gold coins and said that he didn't need to look for it. The happy student council smiled, handed out a pamphlet to each of the five people, and left happily.

Ning Fan opened the booklet and read it again, and after reading it, he knew that the names of the other four teams in Group 7 where his team was located were: Purple Jasmine, Blue Storm, Hard Spear, and Strong Shield. Purple Jasmine is a team of five beautiful second-year seniors, and very little is known about this team. Blue Storm is a team of five second-year seniors, and I heard that the members of this Blue Storm team are five twin brothers, and the soul power used is all water-based, and the soul pet is also water-based. In last year's competition, this team was still a first-year freshman team and won the top 16, according to the grapevine, the current five seniors have crossed the threshold of the Xuantie level six grades, which can be described as a strong opponent for Ning Fan and a few people.

The next squads of 'Strong Spear' and 'Strong Shield' are all freshmen of the year. In the previous game, they relied on the unique nature of their squad to win, the five members of the 'strong spear' squad are all melee offensive attributes, and the pets they summon also have a strong aggressiveness, it can be said that this squad is an absolute attack without a little defensive style of play, usually the opposite squad has not yet developed a formation, this squad attack arrived, and then a wave of down all the personnel of the opposite team, this is the famous play in history "wave flow".

The 'Strong Shield' team's style of play is completely opposite to the 'Strong Spear' team's style of play, what this team is good at is defense, each person has an earth-based soul pet, and the common characteristic of the earth-based soul pet is that it is tall. The 'Sturdy Shield' team's style of play is to summon their own earth-based soul pets at the beginning, and then the five of them nest in a corner of the martial arts platform, and the soul pets outside the stage set up a bunker. Everyone hides in the bunker and lets his enemies attack him as steadily as Mount Tai, unmoved, slowly consumed with you, you must know that everyone's soul power is limited, and there will always be a time when it runs out. The strong shield 'he is consuming your soul power, if you attack, hit him without reacting, waste soul power in vain, if you don't attack, he will take the time to quickly give you a blow, whether it is playing or not quickly changing back to the original formation, their way of playing is very unbearable, there is a feeling that there is no place to send, the first two squads are halfway to play and abstain. If the 'strong spear' that used the shortest time in the first two days of the game is the best. If you want to say that it takes the longest, it is the 'strong shield'.

Looking at the booklet in his hand, Ning Fan and the others suddenly felt the value of the 50 silver coins, I really didn't know it, and I was shocked that the group I was in turned out to be a place where the dragon and the crouching tiger were hidden, the mysterious 'purple jasmine', the 'blue storm' of the cow, and the two perverted 'strong spears' and 'strong shields'. None of them are fuel-efficient lamps, and the originally active atmosphere after reading the information suddenly became dull.

"Have a good rest tonight, fight well tomorrow, none of the things we meet are good, so be more careful." Ning Fan finished speaking. Getting up to leave, after reading the group's information, he felt a deep pressure.

The other four looked at each other a few times and said, "Come on." At the same time get up and leave.

In fact, not only Ning Fan, but also several other people were under pressure......
