Chapter 129: The First Opponent
"Alright, each of you has come out in groups. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Ning Wangshu, you are in the seventh group, Wei Fengping, you are in the sixteenth group, Mu Jingya, you are in the nineteenth group, Zhang Zhao, you are in the twenty-seventh ancestral ......"
Jiang Ying looked at the grouping of the information interface that popped up on the wristband, and announced to Ning Wangshu and the others one by one.
This time, in addition to the seeded players from various schools, a total of 2,486 students signed up for the competition. These nearly 2,500 people were directly divided into fifty groups.
The number of people in each group is about fifty. It just so happened that each group used a ring in the square to compete in the qualifiers.
The rules of this qualifier are simple, that is, they compete in groups.
Each opponent is drawn at random. From the first round of the competition, the winner enters the upper bracket, and the loser automatically becomes the lower bracket.
After the second round, the winner of the second round in the upper bracket remains in the upper bracket, and the loser will compete in the third round with the winner of the second round in the lower bracket.
As for the loser's bracket, those who lost again in the second round of the competition were eliminated directly.
After the third round of the competition, the winners of the upper bracket will automatically qualify for the Challenger. Those who are defeated will play the winner of the third round in the lower bracket in the fourth round, which is also the final round of the qualifiers.
The winner advances, and the loser is eliminated.
In the end, there are about 12 to 14 people in each group who can make it to the challenge. It depends on the actual number of people in that group.
After all, there were only 2,486 contestants, and there were a few groups with fewer than 50 people.
After the selection of the qualifiers, there will be less than 700 of the nearly 2,500 contestants left. Not every one of these people will have the confidence to challenge those seeded players.
After all, elite high school students are restricted from challenging regular high school seeded players. They can only challenge those seeded players who also come from elite high schools.
Therefore, there are not many people who have the confidence to think that they can beat the same elite high school seeded players.
Instead of taking risks that you are not sure of to challenge, in case of failure, or even injury that affects the subsequent re-finals, it is better to recharge your energy and directly rely on the re-finals to reach the knockout round.
In addition, if two people are challenging the same seeded player at the same time, the challenged seeded player is also eligible to choose one of the two challengers to accept the challenge.
The high school competition in Yinhai City has been held for hundreds of years, and the details of the rules have long been perfected, and it is difficult to find any loopholes.
After Jiang Ying informed Ning Wangshu and the others of the situation of each group, she said: "Now there are about ten minutes before the qualifier competition officially starts. You guys, now you can go to the ring of your respective group and wait. Don't forget to wear your badge and go through the runners' lane, so don't go to the wrong ring. ”
"In addition, if there is any situation, you can contact the teacher at any time, and the teacher will communicate and solve it. Finally, the teacher is also here to wish everyone a good performance and strive to break through from the qualifiers!"
"Yes! ”
Ning Wangshu and others loudly agreed.
Jiang Ying nodded lightly, waved her hand, and said, "Okay, let's go and prepare." ”
At that moment, Ning Wangshu and the others walked towards the corresponding ring according to their respective groups.
When Ning Wangshu passed by Jiang Ying's side, Jiang Ying deliberately tugged at him, smiled at him, and encouraged: "Ning Wangshu, come on!"
When Ning Wangshu heard this, he couldn't help but show a smile, and nodded vigorously in response: "Well, teacher, I will!"
Jiang Ying smiled encouragingly and patted Ning Wangshu's shoulder, "Go ahead." ”
After a while, Ning Wangshu came to the ring of the seventh group where he was.
At this time, two men in referee uniforms were already waiting there, and twenty or thirty other people in the same group had already arrived.
"All the members of the seven groups will come to me to check your identity information when they arrive!"
As soon as Ning Wangshu arrived, he heard the two referees shouting.
So he hurriedly walked over and handed his participation card to the referee for verification.
As the time for the start of the competition was getting closer and closer, the other members of the seven groups also arrived one after another.
At this time, Ning Wangshu's wrist ring suddenly shook slightly, and Ning Wangshu looked down, but it was a message sent by Jiang Yuxuan.
"Wangshu, your qualifier competition is about to start, right? Come on, I'm waiting for you in the knockout round!"
Seeing Jiang Yuxuan's message of encouragement, Ning Wangshu couldn't help but smile slightly, and immediately quickly entered the information and replied, "Well, there are still a few minutes before the competition will start." Rest assured, I'll make it to the playoffs!"
After replying to Jiang Yuxuan's message, Ning Wangshu immediately closed the virtual interface that popped up on the wristband.
Jiang Yuxuan didn't send another message.
After another moment, after all the students in the seventh group had arrived and verified their identity information, one of the referees immediately said, "Okay, now all the personnel in the seventh group have arrived, and your identity information has been verified." ”
"Now, I'm going to start randomly picking your first round of jousting rankings. ”
After speaking, he pressed the button on a device next to him, and the information on the screen on the instrument flashed wildly, and after a while, when the screen stabilized, the battle list was released.
"In the seventh group, in the first game of the first round, Sun Hao of Yinhai No. 3 Middle School played against Pan Chen of Tenghui High School. ”
"In the second game of the first round, Feng Junming of Yinhai No. 9 Middle School will face Shen Jiaying of Yinhai No. 18 Middle School!"
"Round 1, Game 3 ......"
......
"In the twelfth game of the first round, Ning Wangshu of Yinhai 13th Middle School played against Shi Wanshan of Wulan High School. ”
......
The referee read the list of matches displayed on the screen one by one.
Ning Wangshu's luck was not bad, the first opponent was a student from Wulan High School, and Wulan High School was also just an ordinary high school.
If it is for students who go to elite high schools, then they may still encounter hard stubble, and Ning Wangshu has to be cautious.
However, the other party is just an ordinary high school student, Ning Wangshu doesn't believe that the other party can have so many adventures and have such strong strength like himself.
Therefore, when he saw that his first opponent was also an ordinary high school student, his face couldn't help but relax a lot.
After reading all the battle lists, the referee immediately said: "Okay, now the first game of Yinhai No. 3 Middle School Sun Hao and Tenghui High School Pan Chen, you two will go to the ring immediately and prepare for the competition!"
As the referee's words fell, two students immediately walked out of the group. The two of them looked at each other, snorted softly, and then stepped into the ring.
At the moment, they are opponents of each other, so naturally they will not give each other any good looks.
As the two students took the stage, the two referees also jumped lightly, and each stood on the two referee tables in the opposite corner of the ring.
Immediately afterward, the man who was the referee immediately shouted, "The jousting begins!" (To be continued.) )
