Chapter 134: Supernumerary Seeds
Qi Nian's game was arranged in the No. 8 boxing ring, and the preliminary order was No. 11, according to the time reasoning, at least after noon, so he ran to the No. 11 field to see Wu Fan's game.
He arrived at the arena half an hour early, and at that time he only saw Sun Xiaohong, Song Gang and other people who were still left behind in the Jiangwan Branch, but he did not see Wu Fan.
"He's home, and he's probably on his way at this point. Sun Xiaohong said to Qi Nian, who glanced at her.
"He went home last night?!" Qi Nian was surprised, because they couldn't ask for leave for any reason, but they didn't expect Wu Fan to be able to go out, he was very puzzled, "This kid is too willful, right?"
Sun Xiaohong smiled helplessly, "No one can understand this kid, play with his heartbeat." I can't estimate the game time, it's hard for him to come out. ”
"Maybe. Qi Nian smiled and glanced at the many people in the stands, among which he was the last of the sixteen seeded players in this tournament to arrive. And there were several unknown figures in the stands that made him speechless. Some of these people were older, and some were about the same age as him, and they couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It seems that this brother will not have a good time in the future." ”
really let Sun Xiaohong guess correctly, and shouted Wu Fan's number three times through the speaker, but Wu Fan's figure still did not appear in the ring, and there was an uproar in the stands at this time.
"No. 652 won't abstain, right? No. 988 has been waiting in the ring for a long time, and that kid still hasn't appeared. ”
"Xiaohong, where did Wu Fan go?...... What's the matter" Xu Lan glanced anxiously at the door of the eleventh field and asked Sun Xiaohong beside her.
"Xu Lan, you are really interesting, his whereabouts are not reported to me, how do I know where he went?"
"What do you mean? People still call you Sister Xiaohong, why are you so impatient?" Xu Lan glanced at Sun Xiaohong with disgust.
"Come on, didn't you look down on Wu Fan yesterday, why did you make a 180-degree turn today?"
"It's one thing to see it or not, and it's another thing to support it or not. Wu Fan is also a person from our Jiangwan Branch anyway, don't we support him?" Xu Lan choked Sun Xiaohong without hesitation.
Sun Xiaohong was about to fight back, but heard Qi Nian almost say:
"Don't talk, haven't you noticed the number of that person in the ring? There are only more than 3,800 people in this competition, and there are no more than 3,988 numbers in the ranking, looking at his calm appearance, this person is definitely not simple, even I don't have the confidence to fight with him." What kind of luck did Wu Fan go, he met such a master in the first round, and this is still alive?"
"The committee has 10 special numbers, which are arranged before the tournament, and they call them reserve seeds, also known as strong seeds. There are competitions in every tournament, but there are very few opportunities to play. I didn't expect Wu Fan to be so unlucky, and he met such a person in the first fighting match. No. 3988 is one of them, but I can't see how powerful this person is, is he even stronger than Wang Yi?"
Sun Xiaohong is a master of checking information, even if it is the confidential file of the National Security Bureau, she can enter and see it at a glance, but in terms of eyesight, it is not a little worse than Qi Nian.
"Strong seed? Could it be that he deliberately prepares a master for a player who rises to the top too early?" Qi Nian didn't ask this question, but his heart was shocked and affirmed his reasoning, "If it goes on like this, won't I also meet a reserve seed player?"
The first five rounds of the special training class assessment are all knockout rounds that must be participated, and no matter which level is not passed, they will be ruthlessly eliminated. Qi Nian suddenly realized that it was not a good thing to be top-notch in front of him, he and Wu Fan were more than seventy points ahead of Wang Yi, who was in third place, but the organizing committee didn't seem to want to see a standout, or a situation of double flowers, and was suppressing them strongly.
"Number 3988, I don't have that number in my profile. Sun Xiaohong said very calmly, she was just stating a fact, and she didn't say why even I didn't have the information about this number, but the people around her understood it. They know with certainty that if I don't even have Sun Xiaohong's information about that person, it can only mean that this person has never appeared in the previous games, and it can also be said that this person should not have appeared at this time at all, and his appearance has a certain purpose, which is aimed at someone.
As for who to target, it couldn't be more obvious.
"Shoot the first bird!"
Xu Lan suddenly popped out this sentence for no reason, but this sentence hit everyone's guesses at once. Everyone was silent, and all eyes were on the 3988 contestant standing peacefully in the ring.
He was very calm, as if a willow stood easily at the water's edge, and the wind that passed through the hall stirred his hair, curled up his fever and covered one eye, but he had no consciousness of wanting to brush his hair at all, and stood idly on the platform, looking at the roof of the steel-framed structure, not knowing what he was thinking.
The more this is the case, the more people feel the detached temperament in him, and the more it makes this person seem lonely.
This is a master, at least Qi Nian subconsciously thinks so. He didn't know who was between this person and him, but there was an urge in his heart to rush into the ring and compete with him.
Masters are hard to find, lonely masters are even rarer, Qi Nian is unwilling to give up this opportunity, but he stood there but did not move, this is not only the rules of the game, because he knows that this opponent is Wu Fan's.
"Wu Fan, hey, this kid is also calming down, and he hasn't seen anyone anymore. Qi Nian sighed and turned his head to look at the door of the venue.
"Please go to the No. 11 ring as soon as possible to participate in the competition, and those who do not arrive within one minute will be deemed to have given up the game and will automatically admit defeat. ”
In the venue's loudspeakers, a serious voice rang out three times.
This kind of prompt is normal for the game, but the spectators in the stadium feel the unusual atmosphere.
Wu Fan rose to prominence yesterday and became an incomparably glamorous dark horse. But it would be a pity and too weird to be eliminated like this without even going to the ring.
However, Wu Fan did not appear, some people were anxious, and some people were very happy.
With such a strong competitor missing, it's no wonder if he's unhappy, at least Qin Dao, Wang Yi, Song Jun, Fang Yuan, and Sui Tian...... And so many more people think so.
Half a minute passed, Wu Fan still did not appear, and the discussion of the audience began to buzz.
"Is this Wu Fan afraid?"
", he had a fight with Wang Yi last night, will he be afraid?"
"There are still more than ten seconds, if it doesn't appear again, the biggest dark horse of this year will become a dead horse. ”
“......”
No. 3988 stood in the ring, and did not become restless because of the noise around him, his eyebrows suddenly raised, and his whole body suddenly tightened, and a momentum that only a strong man had was slowly released, instantly making it more mysterious and unpredictable.
"How can this be?" Qi Nian felt the change in No. 3988 and was puzzled, when he heard the sound of footsteps coming over like a torrential rain.
Not only did the footsteps of the rain be heard in the seventh year, but the vast majority of the masters on the field heard it. As their chattering echoed through the air, they all turned their heads to look at the stadium gates.
At the gate, a vague figure blew in like a gust of wind, without the slightest dullness, and rushed directly towards the eleventh ring.
"It's coming! Wu Fan is here!" Sun Xiaohong said with relief.
"It's him. Qi Nian must have agreed.
“...... 9, 8, 7 ......" The sound of the referee's countdown sounded in the ring.
When the count reached three, the figure flew up to the eleventh ring like a bird and nailed to the ring with a thud.
The blurred figure immediately became clear, and it was Wu Fan who was wearing a training uniform.
Taking a deep breath, and then slowly exhaling it, Wu Fan pressed the ups and downs in his chest, quickly adjusted his breathing, and looked at the referee on the side, "Sorry! It's late, can you start?"
The referee was stunned, "One second short, you are very punctual." ”
Wu Fan smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to wipe the white sweat on his face, and also felt very lucky, "I have always been punctual, and I am a person with a great sense of time." He looked at No. 3988 on the other side, "It's time to start." ”
"No, I don't want to take advantage of you and give you three minutes to rest. 3988 shook his head.
The man spoke without consulting the referee, as if his words were final orders. The strange thing is that the referee did not object, but stepped aside and stretched out three fingers, "Three minutes to prepare!"
"There's no need to rest, I still have something to do, fight early and finish early. Wu Fan stood on the three-body pile, like a mountain, and calmly said to No. 3988: "Let's shoot!"
Wu Fan's tone was very light, and he didn't look at his opponent at all. This remark not only puzzled the audience, but also made No. 3988 feel unpleasant to be despised.
Qi Nian also frowned, "Wu Fan has never been so dragged like this, what's wrong today? Didn't he see that No. 3988 was a top master with deep internal strength?"
But how did he know that Wu Fan's mind locked on the opponent after entering the arena, and checked the opponent's true qi status enough.
Strategically despise the opponent and tactically value the opponent. Wu Fan seemed relaxed, but there was not the slightest contempt in his heart.
On the way here, he had carefully filtered the gains from the fight with Wang Yi last night, and basically determined his recent moves-mutated Xingyi Fist.
"I've never seen someone you lose out of power in such a hurry. No. 3988 put his hands behind his back and stood idly three meters away from Wu Fan, "Since you are very busy, I don't have time to waste." Make a move, I'm going to see what makes you a future star so good. Within three moves, if you force me back, even if I lose. ”
Wu Fan was quite crazy, but he didn't expect No. 3988 to be even more arrogant.
