Chapter 50 Contest Process
I put down my glass and said, "By the way, I just have something to ask you." Do you know how this contest works?"
Wei Xu asked puzzledly, "Brother You, didn't Master Nie say everything this morning?"
I was a little embarrassed to ask this, Qin Yi said on the side: "I sat next to Uncle Xiao in the morning, and Uncle Xiao has been fugue all morning, and he also took a nap secretly. ”
I said to Qin Yi: "Hey, don't say it again when you know, okay? I didn't participate in the competition before, why should I listen to that?"
Huixu said: "Then let the little monk talk about it in detail for Brother You." There were a total of 192 participants, divided into five stages. In the first round, there will be a team of four or five people, and a total of 48 matches will be played to determine the 48 finalists. The second and third rounds are both one-on-one single-elimination matches. ”
Huixu continued: "After three rounds, the top 12 players will be decided, and there will be a day off during this period. Then, in order to complete the tasks entrusted by Yingjie after the conference more smoothly, the fourth round of the competition will divide the twelve players into three groups for a round-robin competition, so that the twelve players can get to know each other better. The winner of each match gets two points, the draw gets one point, and the loser gets no points. Finally, the top four players with the most points advance to the Grand Final. ”
Wei Xu said: "It is expected that this World Heroes will last for fourteen days, to be honest, Brother You, it is a little difficult for Cangqi to explain today's events in just fourteen days." ”
Naturally, I knew how far away from the Cangqi Kingdom was, and I said with some embarrassment: "If I say that sentence at that time now, I will just say it casually, do you believe it? I don't know how many days the conference will last, but I just think that since it happened at the conference, it is better to solve it before the end of the conference." ”
Qin Yi said: "With Xu Zilan's influence, I think it should be possible, but he needs to arrange a few more teleportation arrays." ”。。。。
Early the next morning, I went to the main venue to draw the order of the competition, and after learning that I was scheduled to compete in the afternoon of the next day, I took Xiang'er directly to Tai'an City under the mountain to play. In the preliminary round, the real masters will not show their full strength, and although it is decided by lottery, I don't believe that those seeded players who are favored by all parties will meet in the preliminary round...
Due to the fact that it was during the grand event, the city of Tai'an was very lively, and the streets were crowded with people, and from time to time you would see disciples of the Taiyue faction maintaining law and order in the city. We also saw that there were long queues in the city where tickets were sold, and there were even people who were auctioning tickets for the public auction venue...
Most of the industries in the entire Tai'an City are owned by the Taiyue faction, and even if there is a joint organization of all parties at every conference, this Taiyue faction is also the biggest beneficiary.
At noon, I took Xiang'er to line up for dinner at the best restaurant in the city, but I didn't expect the restaurant junior to recognize me and lead us directly to the private room on the third floor, and finally didn't even want to pay for the meal. I used to yearn for this feeling of privilege, but now I feel uncomfortable.
Especially when I walked down the street, many people gave way, and even the respectful salutes made me unbearable. The world will always care more about what label you have on you than about who you are. Therefore, in the afternoon, I could only cover my face with my coat and hat as much as possible, so that others would not recognize me.
Later, I took Xiang'er to the largest casino in the city to play two games, but I saw that most of the gamblers in the casino were discussing who would win. When I got closer, I saw that the casino opened the market to bet on the winners of each game, and more than two dozen players, including me, were seeded. Maybe it's because I hit Tian Yue in one hit, and my odds are currently very low.
"Big brother, Xiang'er wants to use all the money to buy you to win," Xiang'er said.
I said, "Forget it, you see my poor odds, even if you buy it, you can't win much." ”
At this time, someone behind him said: "It's only the preliminary round, if Miss Xiang'er wants to buy You Dao Chang to win, it's best to buy it from the third round." ”
I turned around and saw a couple of guards standing behind us with a pair of men and women, the man was the third prince of Dayu who I had seen at the dinner before, and the woman was the one I had seen in Huayunshui Pavilion.
I said: "It turned out to be the third prince of Dayu, fortunately." Xiang'er has seen the third prince and Miss Ji Jiao. ”
Xiang'er saluted them and said, "Xiang'er has seen His Royal Highness the Third Prince and Miss Jiaojiao. ”
Ji Jiao said: "Sister Xiang'er is good. Ji Jiao has seen the predecessors of You, Xiaoyi City said goodbye in a hurry, it is rare to have the honor to meet today, I wonder if the predecessors of You can enjoy the light together?"
I said, "Miss Jiaojiao is too polite, the word senior is too early for me. Since the two of you have personally invited each other, please do so. ”
There were only four of us in a private room in a teahouse, and I asked directly, "I wonder what the two of you are looking for me?"
The third prince said: "You Dao Chang is too worried, he just wants to make friends with You Dao Chang. ”
"Well, then I'll be blunt. Miss Kyauk should know that I never like to get involved in power struggles, so I don't want myself to get too close to the royal nobility. It's not about anyone, it's about me as a person who is afraid of trouble. Please forgive me for any offensive words. I said.
The third prince said: "I have heard of this, but I still want to meet the chief of the road in person. ”
Ji Jiao smiled and said, "By the way, Daoist You, Wanjiao and Qu Zhaolin are also here, do you know?"
I said, "Princess Jingyue, I know, is Miss Qu here too?"
Ji Jiao said, "Yes, do you want to find a chance for everyone to meet?"
I said, "Forget it, it's too much trouble." When I'm fine, I still lead Xiang'er around to play, I'm too noticeable now, I don't like this feeling. I still hope to be a little Taoist priest now, and if I am bullied, I just have to run, and I don't have to be silently watched behind my back like now. ”
The third prince said: "I don't like this feeling either, but I can only get used to it slowly after a long time." ”
"You were born like this, I'm not, I grew up in the mountains. This time, I was supposed to go out with the senior brother in charge, but now I have made such trouble. I said.
Ji Jiao asked, "Then the last time we met, you didn't know your identity at all?"
I said, "Of course I don't know, that's why I thought it would be too much trouble to beat those kids, so I ran away." ”
Ji Jiao said: "Oh... I'm right. Hehe, you know what? When your identity spreads all over the world, you can scare the parents of those people to death, and you are afraid every day that your children will disappear for no reason one day, but you can't get in at all when you think of Kunlun to make amends. ”
I said, "Alas... I'm not a demon. ”
Ji Jiao said: "How can it be? If you don't run to kill them in your heart, who dares to go to Kunlun Mountain to ask for someone?"
I said, "Yes, you reminded me that it would be good to go to Xiaoyi City after this conference is over." ”
