【Chapter 68】Good News, Bad News?
"That old guy has actually become the dean of the Five Elements Academy. Bear King Songtao stroked his silver beard and said, "You are also a leader at level 66 at your age, and it can be seen that the old guy in Juxin is still well-taught." I would have been more relieved to know that my granddaughter was studying with him.
"Grandpa, where's Dad?" Song Ning immediately looked around: "Is he hiding somewhere like before and waiting for an opportunity to attack me?"
"No!" Songtao said: "It's the annual food rush season again, and the snowmen in the north are about to start attacking, and your father is probably blowing a cool breeze in the fortress now." ”
"Hey...... I forgot. Song Ning patted her head: "Grandpa, we are all tired, you don't have to give us the wind at night, just let the servants bring food to our room." Don't forget to get the doctor to come, my partner has a couple of injuries. ”
"Well, good. Song Tao turned his gaze to the group of people from the Five Elements Academy: "You are at your own convenience, just let Butcher Buchov prepare if necessary." You don't have to be polite, just like you're in your own home. ”
As he spoke, he turned and left like the wind. After walking a few steps, he suddenly turned back to himself: "You're here for the competition, aren't you?"
Mia hurriedly said respectfully: "Yes, His Royal Highness the Bear King!"
"Oh......" Song Tao lowered his head and thought slightly, "That Song Ning is also your player, right?"
"Yes. ”
"Well, pay attention to safety, this competition is not very peaceful......" Songtao said.
"To tell you the truth, His Royal Highness King Xiong, we have already been attacked on the way back, and there are casualties among the members of the main selection team, so we sent Song Ning and a few others to participate in the competition as the main force, and we also had no choice but to make this decision. "Mia didn't have to lie or cover up in front of her teacher's long-time friends, so she told the truth.
"Oh?" Song Tao frowned slightly, "You are the first team of my Zhilu Dao to escape from the attack. If the royal investigation team of the Northern Kingdom needs you to provide clues, I hope you can answer truthfully. ”
"Yes!"
Under the leadership of Song Ning, several people went to the room to rest, and several doctors with excellent medical skills treated the wounded and sick.
A few people did not alienate her because of Songning's strong grandfather, but felt that Songning was careful and cute, and several people understood each other even better.
......
A few days of rest have passed, except for Jialan, who spent part of her time refining the pill, everyone else is slowly improving, and the desire for strength makes everyone extremely excited.
"Come here, have a meeting!" Teacher Mia, who had left the morning in the morning, had already returned in the dust, with a thick stack of parchment in her hand.
After beckoning everyone around, Mia spread out the largest piece of parchment in her hand, on which many words were densely written.
"I've just come back from the draw as team leader, and now we're going to analyse the situation in front of us. Mia said.
"There are a total of 32 teams participating in the All-Continent College Championship, which is divided into four categories: group stage, semi-final, semi-final and final, and as the fourth place in the last edition, we are the fourth seed and are placed in Group 4. Mia's eyebrows furrowed slightly: "So now I'm telling you a good news and a bad news, which one do you listen to first?"
Long Kun saw the change in Mia's expression, and said without hesitation: "Bad news." ”
"The bad news is that the other three teams in our group are very strong, and if it wasn't for the bad draw in the last tournament, they would have been able to reach the semi-finals. ”
Everyone's faces turned pale, but no one flinched, but their eyes became firm.
But only Jialan noticed that Mia's face was pretending to be serious, but her eyebrows were full of excitement.
"Good news?" asked Jialan.
Mia breathed a sigh of relief, shrugged her shoulders and said, "We are lucky, two of the four teams have already been killed by our attackers before coming to Morco, and the representative academy has also announced its abstention, and there are only two teams left in our group, which means that even if we lose the group stage, we can enter the round of 16." ”
The people who were still nervous just now couldn't help but laugh dumbly when they heard this, where is this luck, it's just luck!
"The group stage is a best-of-three system, with one-on-one in the first game, two-on-two in the second game, and one-on-one in the third game. So it's a great format for us to keep the number of players in the group stage as low as possible, so that all of our strength is perceived by the enemy. Mia smiled at the corner of her mouth.
"Don't you think you can deceive Hong Yue and deceive me!" Mia looked serious.
"What about after that?" asked Long Kun.
"The round of 16 is a crossover, with the first place in Group 4 versus the second place in Group 3, and so on. The round of 16 format is also a best-of-three game, but the difference is that the first two games are one-on-one, and the last game is a six-player team battle. Mia continued.
"The eight-in-four race has changed slightly, it's a wheel battle. Mia's voice sank at this point.
"Teacher, what is wheel warfare?" asked Jialan.
"Wheel battles are one-on-one matches, and after defeating the opposing player, you don't get off the stage until you are defeated. The game ended when all six players on one side lost. Mia said.
It's such a cruel game, that is, it is really a fight to the death, no wonder before the game, Hong Yue asked everyone to participate in the trial of killing, just to prepare for this wheel battle!
"It's the same in the semi-finals. When it came to ...... final," Mia paused.
"The final is a six-player team battle! ”
At this time, everyone was already full of excitement and confidence.
Mia continued: "But don't take it lightly, although you didn't catch the final exam this semester, but at the end of last semester, you were only in your thirties, and I believe that you won't improve too much in one semester, so you have to be cautious first." I saw several teams over level 30 during the registration process just now, and you are not the only ones. ”
Long Kun looked at his partners and said with a smile: "Teacher, we will do our best." ”
The final class said in their hearts: What kind of progress we have made, Teacher Mia still didn't expect. You must know that since the absorption of Teacher Ollie's elixir, after everyone broke through the bottleneck, in the past year, with the assistance of night and day penance and Jialan's elixir, the strength of everyone has been greatly improved, although the higher the level, the slower the speed of upgrade, but it can be said that the strength of the ultimate class is above the main selection team.
Mia looked at Long Kun's confidence in surprise, nodded in surprise, and said, "Okay, for the honor of the Five Elements Academy, come on!"
Everyone said in unison: "For the honor of the Five Elements Academy, we will win!"
