Douluo: Peerless Light
Chapter 517 The leisure before the storm [6000 words]
At this time, one of the fat-bellied officials stood up, poked the microphone, and said with a smile: "Ahem. Hello? Hello? Ah! Let me just say a few words. First of all, I want to congratulate everyone here on being able to enter this office. The top eight of the competition. As we all know”
"Secondly."
"In one, it's about."
"And that's it."
A series of official talk and nonsense went on for nearly half an hour.
If Qian Chaoguang hadn't "accidentally" dropped a machete onto the rostrum, and it just happened to be embedded in the wooden table used for speeches, the old man might have had to speak for a long time.
Such a move won the favor of almost everyone present.
No one wants to listen to this old guy talking nonsense for a long time.
The official seemed a little embarrassed about this and wanted to reprimand him loudly.
But because Qian Chaoguang was trimming his nails with the machete while looking at his neck, he didn't dare to say anything.
This old bden finally got to the point.
"Next, what we are going to do is the drawing ceremony for the quarter-finals. This drawing is very important. You all must"
Seeing that this old guy is about to go crazy again, others who don't have the corresponding status can only swallow their anger, but Qian Chaoguang doesn't care what he does, he opens his mouth and curses:
"Are you done yet? Are you done with all the official talk? From now on, if you dare to say another word, I will kill you with a knife. I will never let you speak again."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Even the people from the Holy Spirit Sect looked at Qian Chaoguang in surprise.
You dare to fall out with someone from the Sun Moon Empire Competition Organizing Committee, brother, you are so tough!
The official seemed to have never seen someone so disrespectful to him. Just as he was about to slap the hat on the person with a serious expression, the Bupo Douluo Zheng Zhan standing next to him stood up with a cry and pushed him back. on the back seat.
"I will read out the rules of the draw."
As he spoke, he cast a grateful look at Qian Chaoguang.
What did you say just now?
No one wants to listen to this old guy babbling.
"We will first invite the four first-place teams in the group to draw lots, and divide them into upper and lower halves in pairs. After the divisions, we will draw the opponents for the competition."
"Please note that until the finals, the four teams from each half will only meet teams from their own half. The winners of the last two halves will advance to the finals."
Listening to Zheng Zhan's concise explanation, Qian Chaoguang's anger subsided a little.
However, he still had to curse in his heart for this absolutely bloated and cerebrally paralyzing competition system.
Who on earth came up with such an imbecile cerebral palsy competition format?
Damn, there are only a few games like this. I wish I could sew all the competition systems in the world together.
are you crazy!
The meaning of the division system is that it was implemented because there were too many teams in the competition, so as to avoid excessive competition cycles and facilitate team management.
There is no world ranking in this crappy competition, and no one cares who is ranked second, third, fourth, fifth or sixth.
There are only eight fucking teams in the quarterfinals. Who are you going to create a meaningless upper and lower half?
What is the use?
Just draw lots and play a few rounds to decide the champion and that’s it?
What's the point of making it so complicated?
It's just fucking superfluous.
The four first-placed teams in each group quickly sent representatives to the stage.
There is no doubt that Beibei appears on the Tang Sect side, and Muxue appears on the Snow Demon Sect side. Both of them are acquaintances.
Qian Chaoguang from the Holy Spirit Sect and the Proud Sword Sect didn’t know each other.
All the teams couldn't help but become nervous.
Of the four teams, only the Snow Demon Sect and the Proud Sword Sect were obviously the weakest.
The Tang Sect's first team, the Three Soul Emperors, are quite powerful.
The Holy Spirit Cult is something that none of the other three teams want to meet. They are too ruthless and their opponents are either dead or disabled in every game.
Only Qian Chaoguang was different from everyone else in being nervous.
He is currently reciting silently: Bless the God of Light and the God of Immortality. I will bless myself. I must win the Holy Spirit Cult. I must win the Holy Spirit Cult.
First, draw lots to divide the areas.
"Tangmen, upper half."
"Holy Spirit Sect, lower half."
"Snow Demon Sect, lower half."
"Proud Sword Sect, first half."
Naturally, some people are happy and some are sad about the results of these divisions.
The lower half with both the Holy Spirit Sect and the Noumenon Sect will undoubtedly become the group of death.
"The drawing for the quarter-finals will be carried out below. The Tang Sect that is the first to be shortlisted for the quarter-finals will draw first."
Beibei raised his hand and drew it. He took out the lottery and glanced at it briefly, with a slight smile on his face.
"The one drawn by the Tang Sect is the Mingdu Soul Master Academy team."
The faces of the Mingdu Soul Master Academy team all turned green.
Next, the second person to draw lots was the Proud Sword Sect, who was also in the top half.
At this time, Qian Chaoguang became really nervous.
There is a one-third chance of winning, right?
If you are really drawn by the Proud Sword Sect, whether you can win the championship is a trivial matter. It would be really uncomfortable if you can't kill the people of the Holy Spirit Sect openly.
"The opponent of the top eight teams of the Proud Sword Sect is the Tianlongmen team!"
When Qian Chaoguang heard about the Tianlongmen team, he was happy on the spot and breathed a sigh of relief.
The draw for the top half was over, and the only teams that were not drawn were Shrek and the Star Luo National Academy team.
This also means that no matter what the result of the next draw is, Shrek will definitely be able to run into the Holy Spirit Cult before the finals.
This is exactly what Qian Chaoguang likes to hear and see.
However, as the team leader of Xingluo National Academy for a long time, her face did not look good.
In the lower half, there is not only the Holy Spirit Sect, but also the Shrek team led by a monster like Qian Chaoguang, and the Noumenon Sect team that has used the Snow Demon Sect shell.
No matter which of these three teams, their Star Luo National Academy team can beat.
This also means that their journey to this competition has completely come to an end.
"Next, the Holy Spirit Sect will draw lots."
"The Holy Spirit Sect's opponent is the Star Luo National Academy team."
After hearing this result, Jiujiu's expression changed, and his heart became even colder.
She no longer cares about whether she can win. She only cares about whether her team members can return to the Star Luo Empire safely.
There is no doubt that there will be no need to draw lots in the last game.
Shrek will face the Noumenon Sect team led by Wei Na in the quarterfinals.
Blessed, but not completely blessed.
This is also a good lottery. Qian Chaoguang also wants to fight against the man named Long Aotian in the Noumenon Sect.
Except for not being able to hit the Holy Spirit Cult in the first round, this draw ceremony ended perfectly.
"The draw has been completed and the quarter-finals will be held the day after tomorrow. The morning will be the competition for the top half, and the afternoon will be the competition for the bottom half. Please get ready. The competition is going on until the last moment. For you, every game is important. It’s very important and I hope you get good results.”
After the lottery was over, the officials left one after another, and the eight teams also walked towards the outside of the banquet hall.
"Qian Chaoguang."
A beautiful voice sounded.
Qian Chaoguang turned around and saw Du Xue and Wei Na walking over together.
Wei Na said with a look of regret: "I didn't expect that I would meet you in the quarterfinals. This is really a big deal for us."
"Why did Princess Wei Na say this?" Qian Chaoguang smiled slightly, "I have heard about your sect's Long Aotian for a long time. The awakening of the silver-level martial soul is very different from the parallel-imported soul saint like Xiao Hongchen. "
Wei Na showed a wry smile and turned her gaze to Huo Yutong aside: "Farewell, I don't believe that your sister is much worse than Long Aotian. What's more, apart from you two brothers and sisters, the one named Qiu'er The girl is really not weak, and there is Brother Caitou, who is the best in the fortress's tactics."
Qian Chaoguang smiled back again and gave a meaningful look at the same time: "Competitions are meant for exchanges and discussions. Everyone has a chance, so let us compete with all our strength. I only hope that this competition will not be It affects our friendship with each other. After all, we are still partners, right?"
Wei Na immediately understood and stretched out her right hand politely: "May our cooperation go smoothly and our friendship last forever."
"must."
The two hands were held tightly together and shook up and down.
Their master just stood in the enemy's chassis and conspired loudly, showing a tacit smile.
As the game continues, the number of teams in Mingyue Hotel becomes smaller and smaller.
Most of the teams that have finished the game have chosen to leave.
After all, this is a sad place for them.
At the same time, there are also some teams that are not discouraged and want to choose to stay and continue watching the game. This is a rare opportunity and a great opportunity to learn and improve.
However, many times their wishes are not well implemented and realized.
After all teams from the Douluo Three Kingdoms are eliminated, members from Tianhun, Xingluo, and Shrek will contact them and have secret negotiations with their team leaders.
No one knows what they said.
But after each negotiation, these teams basically evacuated Mingdu as quickly as possible along the special routes provided by several parties, and rushed towards their own territory without looking back.
On the surface, these teams just hid in a corner of Mingdu after the game, and then disappeared.
Regarding this situation, Xu Tianran, who was kept in the dark, felt confused every day when he heard the reports from his subordinates. He was really confused.
The feeling that the situation was out of control became stronger and stronger, always making him feel inexplicably uneasy, as if something bad was about to happen.
Of course, not all teams will listen.
For these teams that refused to listen, these coordinators did not take any coercive measures. They just asked them to sign a contract and videotape it before going to find others.
The four parties have already reached a consensus on this situation - it's hard to persuade the damn ghosts with good words. If something happens later, you will have to bear the consequences. No one will come back to save you.
When the time comes, if you are really captured by the Sun and Moon Empire, don’t think about using your morals to kidnap you later.
You have signed the contract yourself, we have persuaded you, and we have tried our best if we can. You did not want to leave, and any outcome has nothing to do with us.
Because it must be separated in time from the Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition, the finals of the Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition are scheduled to take place the day after the former's semi-finals.
Nine people from three parties will participate in the Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition, and the final format of the competition will still be conducted according to the previous method.
Qian Chaoguang is going to take advantage of these few days to sharpen his skills in battle, and then give those people a hard job on the field, letting them know what it means, "Sir, times have changed."
Two days of training time gave the top eight teams a chance to breathe.
Every team is taking the time to make final improvements and modifications.
As the day of the quarter-finals battle approaches, the entire Ming Dynasty has become lively early in the morning.
Before dawn, a large number of spectators were already pouring out of the city in order to get a better seat to watch the game.
There will be four consecutive games in one day, all of which are strong battles. Any one of them is enough to feast the eyes of all viewers.
Therefore, an exceptionally large number of people from the Sun and Moon came to watch the game today, finally showing the Sun and Moon Empire's home field advantage.
When the sun rose, those teams that represented the strongest level of the young generation today walked towards the outside of the city under the protection of a human wall composed of many soldiers.
It was not just the four teams that competed in the morning that went to the competition venue.
Teams such as Shrek, Holy Spirit Sect, Noumenon Sect, and the Star Luo National Academy team that competed in the afternoon also came early.
During the round robin, they can not watch other people's games, just play their own games and be done with it.
But when it comes to the quarterfinals, it becomes extremely important to understand the threats of potential opponents as much as possible.
Even Shrek, who has a lot of information, is no exception.
Whether it's witnessing a fight or getting used to the atmosphere of the game early, this is what you should do.
Probably only the two scroll kings, Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong, complained about this.
One was unable to practice the Purple Demon Eye, and the other was interrupted from the morning exercises that he had persisted in for decades, which made both brother and sister feel a little uncomfortable.
When everyone from Shrek arrived at the competition venue, the Tang Sect team and their opponent, the Mingdu Soul Master Academy team, were already warming up.
Being in the top half, Tangmen will undoubtedly be the first to appear.
The weather is good today, the bright sunshine is shining on the earth, bringing everyone a happy and good mood.
Qian Chaoguang didn't know whether the others were excited or not, but he could tell that Xiao Xiao, who was in the Tangmen rest area, was definitely very excited now.
This little girl picked up a giant soul cannon from nowhere, which was taller than her. Now she was very excitedly holding a piece of cloth and polishing the dark barrel of the cannon until it was shiny.
Looking at this extremely weird scene, Qian Chaoguang suddenly realized something.
It seems that no matter what creature comes into contact with me or the people around me, the painting style will gradually become crooked.
Look, how come this little loli, who was originally a nice, quiet little girl, has now become a full-fledged violent person?
There are also Caitou, Da'e, Qiu'er, Ma Xiaotao, Dai Luoli, and Ling Luochen
Even Electrolux and Xuan Ziwen
oh!
The reason why the painting style of the undead creatures is getting more and more crooked is because of being the boss!
That’s okay!
After everyone entered the rest area, He Caitou, who was following the team, touched his bald head, which was also reflective, and walked over with a smile, pointing and explaining something to Xiao Xiao.
Now Qian Chaoguang knows that this thing was secretly given to her by He Caitou.
Also walked over
No, there was another person who came over, which Qian Chaoguang was very unexpected - Wang Dong.
Wang Dong walked to Qiu'er, who was slightly lost in thought. The sunlight shone on Qiu'er's golden hair, rippling out a color like glass.
Similar looks, slightly different ages, two completely opposite temperaments of cold maturity and cheerfulness, as well as completely contradictory body contrasts.
The strong contrast created by such different but different beauties standing there is a beautiful painting in itself.
Wang Dong was so happy that he hugged Qiu'er into his arms, and rubbed his arms firmly into the other party's stalwart chest: "Sister Qiu'er, you're here!"
Qiu'er, who had just reacted, turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, with a hint of disgust on her face. She pretended to be calm and said "um" through her nose.
"Hehe, I knew Sister Qiu'er would come to cheer me on. Don't worry, this time when I watch my performance, I will definitely give them a beating."
".Um."
"Oh, sister Qiu'er, please don't push me. Let me hold you for a while."
Qian Chaoguang stared at the scene in front of him in stunned silence.
Although he had just been mentally prepared for whether their painting style would also be distorted.
But now, this scene is happening right in front of my eyes. This fucking exciting feeling is really exciting.
It is really.
I don’t know how to describe it in words!
It can be said that the book is used only when it is used, and now it can only be fucked endlessly.
No, when did they get together? ? ?
How can this emotion progress so quickly? ?
Qian Chaoguang quickly took a sip of cold drink to calm down his shock, and nudged Huo Yutong, who was also watching the show, with his elbow.
"Hey, what do you think the two of them are doing?"
"I strongly suspect that the two of them have some ulterior secret."
Huo Yutong broke the large piece of watermelon in his hand into two pieces with a bang, handed one piece to Qian Chaoguang, and then took another bite himself.
"There's probably something really wrong with the goose's orientation."
"You don't mean"
"The two of them definitely have a love for each other."
"Holy shit, is it true?"
"You have to believe me, brother, this is a woman's intuition. In your words, what is it called? Oh, yes, Jushi is great. Tell you secretly, I suspected Qiu'er and Dagoose that night."
"Shhhhhh, I understand, I understand. If you keep talking, you may not be able to pass the trial."
"Hmm? What can't pass the trial? Brother, what are you talking about?"
"Ahem. It's nothing. I'm watching a show and eating melon. What's that? This melon is quite sweet."
"But you just took a bite of the melon rind."
".I have good teeth."
At this joyful moment of eating melon, everyone from each team has basically arrived, even the people from the Holy Spirit Sect are no exception.
They were still so mysterious, all shrouded in black.
He was wearing all black despite being exposed to the strong sun. He was worthy of being the owner of a dark martial spirit, but he was not afraid of the heat.
In the rest area, although there are far fewer people than there were at the beginning, the atmosphere is even more tense.
Especially the teams that are going to compete against each other today, they are almost at odds with each other.
I am afraid that only Shrek and Tang Clan, who are absolutely confident in their own strength, can have fun so easily.
On the rostrum, Regent Xu Tianran arrived early.
Orange sat down next to him and gave him a cup of fragrant tea.
Xu Tianran took a sip of tea and asked Jing Hongchen, the master of Mingde Hall on the other side: "Hall Master Hongchen, how is your grandson's condition?"
Jing Hongchen leaned forward slightly: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. With the Imperial Physician Douluo you sent to treat him, his condition has become much more stable. He only injured many abdominal organs, bones, and meridians. If he wants to completely Recovery will probably take at least a year.”
Xu Tianran sighed softly: "As long as there are no sequelae, he will be the future pillar of the empire. Please tell Xiao Hongchen that one failure does not mean anything."
"Failure is the mother of success. It is precisely because of the painful experience of failure that their future path will be smoother. I believe that one day, they will be able to defeat those from Shrek Academy."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness." Jing Hongchen responded.
He was obviously a little haggard during this time.
The disastrous defeat of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy put him under a lot of pressure, and many ministers had already submitted memorials to impeach him.
Forget it after being the second best player for so many years, this time they were playing at home and failed to even qualify for the group stage. This was simply a great shame for the empire.
Xiao Hongchen’s injuries were very serious.
As the most explosive and domineering Emperor Sword among the Snow Emperor's three skills, it is a miracle to be able to save even one life when combined with the Snow Dancer's Ice Realm.
If Xu Tianran hadn't sent the only healing titled Douluo in the Sun and Moon Empire in time, Xiao Hongchen might have already passed the first seven years.
Xu Tianran's support stabilized Jing Hongchen's position.
But Jing Hongchen knew in his heart that there is never a free lunch in this world.
After various incidents, he has been completely imprinted on Xu Tianran's side. If nothing happens, he will have to work for him forever in the future.
Jing Hongchen was already well aware of the ruthless tactics of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the current Regent.
I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse to follow such a moody future monarch.
In this different atmosphere, the first game between the Tang Sect and the Mingdu Soul Master Academy quietly kicked off.
Um.
Not long after it started, the curtain came down again.
Mingdu Soul Master Academy is really a bit weak.
Except for the sun girl named Xu Tianzhen, the remaining players can only be described with one word.
The Tang Sect won the game without even engaging in a team battle.
The first game of the quarterfinals ended in such an anticlimactic manner.
Also in the first half, the second game is the showdown between Proud Sword Sect and Tianlong Sect.
This game can be regarded as a back and forth between you and me, each move is very lively.
