Chapter 177: The Continent-wide Elite Magician Competition

"The format of the qualifiers and qualifiers is not the same. The qualifiers will be played in the way you are most familiar with team battles. In a single round-robin format, the team with the highest winning points in each preliminary division will enter the qualifying round. And the qualifiers will be played in a special way. Although the participating teams still sent seven students, they faced each other one by one. The winner stays on the field, and the loser continues to field the cadets until all the cadets on one side fail. ”

"Therefore, the qualifiers can be said to be a competition to show the strength of the team, and the qualifiers are a stage to show the strength of the individual. The reason why there is a promotion tournament is to allow the five empires and high-level leaders to better recognize some particularly outstanding young soul masters from these participating students. ”

"There will be a total of 33 teams participating in the finals, and lots will be drawn for a brutal knockout round. ”

"Wait a minute. This time it was Chen Ziqian who spoke, and he said suspiciously: "You just said that there is one seeded team in the empire, and there are fifteen teams that have passed the qualifiers and the promotion rounds. In this way, the number of teams participating in the finals should be thirty-two, where are the thirty-three?"

She smiled slightly and said, "I forgot to say it." There are not just two seeded teams in the finals, but three, and this third team is the team guaranteed by the vast empire. It can also be said to be the most competitive team. Although the Vast Empire is not a high-level soul master academy, they also have their own special institution for cultivating soul masters. In the previous three Continent-wide Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competitions, except for the Jiatu Empire, which had won the championship once, the champions of the other two editions were all won by the teams sent by the Vast Empire. They will also be your strongest competitors in the future. In my experience, send out the team. Definitely stronger than any team you've ever seen. ”

Everyone looked at each other, but their eyes were not worried, but intense curiosity and excitement.

After so many battles. It has also become an unprecedented team, and they are hungry for a strong opponent. Without a strong opponent, how can you hone yourself better?

"The rankings of the qualifiers will be held separately in the five empires, from one to fifteen. The benefits of this ranking will be evident in the Grand Final. The finals will be conducted in a knockout format. In each round, several teams will have byes. In the first round, there will be three seeded teams with byes. Thirty other teams competed against each other, and the winning fifteen teams competed in the next round. In the second round, the three seeded teams are counted. There are eighteen in total. At this time, among the remaining teams, the top two teams in the qualifiers will have a bye. Eight of the remaining sixteen teams will advance to the third round. There are only ten teams left in the third round, and the top two teams in the ranking tournament still have byes. Teams that have already had a bye will no longer have a secondary bye. After the third round, the remaining teams will be six. That is, the final six of the competition. There will be no bye queues at this time. In the fourth round, six teams passed the draw and competed. The final top three will be decided. The final ranking of the top three is determined to be fair, and it needs to be fought through two methods: team battles and individual elimination battles. ”

"First of all, it's an individual knockout match, which is a qualifier format. The three teams are played in a fighting style. Each side sent seven players. Take turns playing. The loser is eliminated. The winner moves on to the next opponent. Until all the students of the other two academies are eliminated, the winning academy will be directly promoted. The other two academies have a team battle. Determine the other place to advance and play the final team battle against the team that previously advanced through the individual elimination round. ”

After listening to the narration, Ke Anyang couldn't help but say: "Why is this game so complicated? ”

Luo Lan said angrily: "What is there to faint." Regardless of the format, as long as we are undefeated, won't we be the champions in the end?"

She bowed her head slightly and said, "That's right. Of course, the format should be familiar, but in the face of absolute strength, these are not the most important. In the course of the tournament, I will remind you of the format and analyze the opponents you will be upside down. Get up. The last few days. You're going to have to do it. It's a tactical drill. Oh yes. There is one thing I must warn you of. In the divisional qualifiers, the seven of you can only play three at the same time. Among them, Rong Rong will definitely not play in the qualifiers, and I will give her special training during this time. ”

"Huh, only three?" At this time, even Luo Lan couldn't help but be surprised.

She grimaced and said, "What? Do you have any opinions?" The players who will definitely play in the qualifiers include Sona, Bron, Leona and Coco. The other three spots are up to you. Except for Akane. ”

Luo Lan asked tentatively, "Teacher, is this to preserve our strength?"

He said indifferently: "What? Don't you even have this confidence? Your real opponent is in the qualifiers, in the finals, and will never be in this qualifier." If you expose all your own strength to your opponent at this time, then how difficult will the road ahead become?"

After listening to the master's words, Luo Lan thought for a moment, exchanged his eyes with Meng Haoyu, and then nodded and said, "Teacher, I understand." ”

She patted Luo Lan on the shoulder, "I know you'll understand. It's up to you to make the tactical arrangements of the field. It's up to you to decide who you want to attend. I can remind you that in the qualifiers, the fewer people you show up, the better. In the Grand Final, you'll face opponents who are stronger than you ever imagined. And you have only one goal. Let's work hard for this goal. ”

In the next few days, the participating team members, under the leadership of Luo Lan, began to practice tactics. Especially the four new joiners, they spend every day in the run-in.

It's not easy to run a team of magicians, but if you have an exceptionally good control magician on that team, then everything will be much easier. Luo Lan was undoubtedly capable of this role, and under his deployment, the four new recruits gradually became familiar with the combat methods of the last squad in the inner courtyard. At the same time, Luo Lan has also decided on the participants in the preliminaries. Rotation is mainly carried out with four people from the bench.

Although the qualifiers are not very important, they must at least ensure qualification, so among the four people in this rotation determined by Luo Lan, he who must play, as well as Meng Haoyu, who has the strongest magic, Ke Anyang of the water system, and Luo Lan, who is close to him, are hidden in the snow. Everything is ready to go.

Three days later, the capital of the Vast Empire, the Vast City.

The opening ceremony of the Continent-wide Senior Magician Elite Competition, the opening ceremony of the Vast Empire Division, and the opening ceremony held in the Vast City.

As the most magician competition in the wizard world, it attracts not only the attention of magicians, but also the people of every vast city, from royalty, nobles to commoners, regard this competition as the most festival. The opening ceremony was held in the vast Demon Arena in Heaven Dou City. As early as a month ago, tickets for the opening ceremony were sold out. You know, the price of these tickets is the same as the entrance price to the main Demon Arena Center.

As the main arena of the Vast Division, the Vast Demon Arena has stopped all fighting soul competitions since a month ago and has undergone internal transformation. Merge all the sub-arenas in the Great Demon Fight with the Main Demon Fight Center into one. It forms a huge playing field.

In addition to the VIP area remaining on the north side of the entire arena, the renovated Colosseum can accommodate 80,000 spectators at the same time. Although the sales of tickets are very expensive, the magic arena itself has also paid a lot.

All the divisional qualifiers will be played here for the next period of time.

In the early morning, the sun has not yet risen in the east, and the renovated magic arena has already ushered in a huge audience. Coming so early, the audience naturally didn't want to be able to enter the venue early, because each ticket has a special seat number. What they wanted was to be able to see the young soul masters who participated in the competition up close on the first day of the opening ceremony.

Among them, there are many young girls with a young spring. As the master said, the combined number of magicians in the entire continent did not exceed six figures. And the students who can represent the Senior Wizard Academy are even better. There is also an age limit of 25 years. It will undoubtedly become the most ideal spring object in the hearts of girls. If you can marry a powerful magician, it will definitely be a good thing to gain fame and fortune.

Even some of the nobles who had bought tickets for the VIP area gathered outside at this time, and the nobles were always happy to recruit magicians.

The Continent-wide Advanced Soul Demon Master Elite Competition itself is the cradle of talents, not to mention those who can achieve certain results, even if they are just the students who participated in the competition, they are all the objects of competition for nobles and families.
