Chapter 160: Knockout
In the afternoon, Jiang Ying began to let Ning Wangshu practice the use of true qi in actual combat, and she herself personally sparred Ning Wangshu on the side, and pointed out some deficiencies in all aspects of Ning Wangshu from time to time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
For example, the flexible use of Tianxuan steps, as well as the timing and angle of the move, and of course, some situations in the mobilization of true qi......
Ning Wangshu's comprehension is excellent, and his comprehension of actual combat is also very fast, and Jiang Ying naturally has much higher requirements for him than ordinary people.
Since Ning Wangshu has the ability to quickly digest and absorb all the problems and deficiencies she mentioned, Jiang Ying naturally wants to strive for perfection and measure Ning Wangshu with high standards.
The whole afternoon was spent in constant practice.
Ning Wangshu felt that he had benefited a lot, and the improvement in all aspects, especially the improvement of the use of true qi in actual combat, was even more significant.
If Ning Wangshu's use of true qi was still very rough before, and he only knew how to go straight and float on the surface, then after Jiang Ying's adjustment, Ning Wangshu could already control his true qi very smoothly.
Although it is not so quick to reach the point of refinement, at least it is no longer astringent, and even has a sense of sluggishness.
Jiang Ying is also very satisfied with Ning Wangshu's progress this day, tomorrow is the day when the knockout round officially begins, Ning Wangshu can have such a significant improvement in the use of true qi in such a short day, and it is also a big increase in his strength.
At least, in the ring, Ning Wangshu can really give full play to his strength, and he will not be unfamiliar with the use of true qi because of his lack of understanding and familiarity with the use of true qi, so that ten percent of his strength can only be exerted seven or eight percent.
When Ning Wangshu and Jiang Ying left the school, it was already more than five o'clock in the evening.
At this time, there were no reporters who continued to gather around the 13th Middle School to interview those school leaders and teachers on duty. Jiang Ying still sent Ning Wangshu to the door of Shangxi Community, and then returned to the Qifeng Community where she lived.
After returning home, Ning Wangshu checked the situation of the re-finals held today.
Chu Haifeng unsurprisingly broke through from the re-finals and advanced to the knockout round. After all, his strength is indeed very strong, and basically no one is his opponent in the second round, and it is logical to advance.
In addition to Chu Haifeng, Ning Wangshu saw a familiar name in the list of breakthroughs in the second round - Ning Yunhai!
Ning Wangshu was a little surprised by Ning Yunhai's breakthrough, but after thinking about it carefully, it was not surprising.
After all, Ning Yunhai is a student of an elite high school, and his own strength is not weak, and it may not be so easy to break through from the re-finals, but if he really breaks through, there is nothing to be surprised about.
While checking the situation of the re-finals, Ning Wangshu also saw some other news links about him next to him, what is the 'No. 1 dark horse in history', 'No. 1 dark horse in the Yinhai High School Martial Arts Competition', 'The strongest ordinary high school student'...... And so on all kinds of gimmicks, and there are countless eye-catching titles.
Ning Wangshu opened the two links at random, glanced at them a few times, and then closed the page.
The praise of him in those reports even made Ning Wangshu feel a little suspicious of killing. has almost blown him into the strongest high school student in this competition, and some media even directly crowned him with the title of 'Yinhai No. 1 High School Student'......
This kind of excessive hype is obviously a naked hatred of Ningwang Shura, especially the pretentious elite high school students.
For example, those who are qualified to compete for the top ten, or even compete for the 'No. 1 High School Student in Yinhai', I am afraid that they will be more or less dissatisfied with Ning Wangshu touted by the media so much, and these hatreds will obviously fall on Ning Wangshu, not those media.
However, the media's discipline has always been like this, and Ning Wangshu has nothing to say. We can only ignore it, and as for the 'hatred' of other people, let it be as it should be. It's enough to be yourself anyway.
What's more, maybe he doesn't have the confidence and confidence to be able to look down on all the other high school students in the entire Silver Sea, but Ning Wangshu believes that he will definitely make them all out of reach in the future!
Therefore, those who hate or don't really don't need to care much.
......
At night, Ning Wangshu refined his true qi again, and continued to stabilize his cultivation. With Jiang Ying's explanations and guidance during the day, Ning Wangshu's control of true qi was much more proficient.
Because the next day was the day when the knockout tournament began, Ning Yuemin and Qin Shuyun both had to go to work, so they encouraged Ning Wangshu with good advice at dinner.
Of course, Ning Wangshu's performance today has greatly overjoyed them, because they didn't put any pressure on Ning Wangshu, just let him do his best.
The next day, at half past eight in the morning, Ning Wangshu followed Jiang Ying to the Xianzi Central Square.
After yesterday's re-finals, more than half of the original nearly 700 people were eliminated, and the final promotion quota was only 318 people.
The reason why the number of places to advance to the knockout round is 318 people, the main reason is that the total number of people in the seeded player area is exactly 640 people, so it is convenient to arrange the follow-up competition system.
Although there were not many successful players in the challenge the day before yesterday, more than 30 seeded players were replaced by successful challengers.
As for those who were challenged from the seeded player zone, only a handful of seeded players from ordinary high schools failed to break through in the re-finals and were eliminated, and most of the others successfully made it to the playoffs again.
According to the format, a total of 640 students who enter the knockout round will be divided into 10 teams of exactly 64 people each.
The knockout round adopts a single-game elimination system, which means a life-and-death battle!
If you win, then you will advance to the next round of elimination, and if you lose, you will be eliminated directly, and there will be no chance for the lower bracket to fight back into the encirclement.
So, relatively speaking, this knockout round will be more exciting.
It is not that people who are strong will be able to go further, because once the first opponent is unlucky, they will encounter someone stronger than themselves, and if they lose, they will be eliminated directly.
If others are weak, they may be lucky enough to meet weaker opponents, and they will naturally be able to enter the next round of elimination.
So, in the knockout round, luck is also very important.
Of course, in order to avoid the strong people meeting too early, or the strong people gathering in the same group, the organizer will still consider the cultivation of these 640 students who entered the knockout round and their performance in the previous competition to make a relatively reasonable distribution when they are grouped.
The strength of each group is relatively balanced, and there are strong and weak, so that the strong will not get together or the weak will get together.
In addition, although the knockout stage within the group is randomly assigned to opponents, there is also a limitation, that is, if they are in the same group, it is almost impossible for the contestants who have reached the Qi refining stage to meet each other before the final four finalists are determined.
According to the situation in previous competitions, among the participants in each competition, the number of people who can reach the Qi refining stage is basically between thirty or fifty people.
The total number of places to qualify for the finals is only forty.
Therefore, only when the group elimination round enters the final round of the elimination round of the eight-in-four, the randomly assigned system will open up the possibility of two contestants in the Qi refining period cultivating against each other.
After Ning Wangshu and Jiang Ying came to the competition venue, they quickly found their group names. He was divided into the third group, and after Ning Wangshu said something to Jiang Ying, he immediately ran over to the competition area where the third group was located.
The knockout round will not officially start until 9 o'clock in the morning, but although there are still about 20 minutes before 9 o'clock, the participating students are basically there.
The huge square was already a crowded scene, and the people who bought the admission tickets rushed over early. (To be continued.) )
