Chapter 595: Learn to give up, laugh to the end and be the winner!
As the sun slowly rose on the distant horizon, dozens of participating teams set off from the hotel and walked towards the competition venue.
The second round of the Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition has ended, and forty-two teams have entered the third round.
Among them, thirty-two teams can enter the round robin. It'll all depend on how they perform in the third round.
If you win, you will inevitably enter the round robin stage. If you lose, you will still have the opportunity to score a small score. After the first two rounds of competition, some weaker teams have begun to show signs of fatigue even if they qualify. Injuries, attrition, etc. of team members are all major problems for them.
But these are obviously no problem for Shrek and Tangmen.
So far, there are no casualties on Shrek Academy or Tang Sect side.
Of course, even if there are wounded, with Jiang Ming, an all-around player, as long as he is not killed on the spot, Xiao Ling's life force can be used to directly restore your full strength!
After all the participating players arrived, the drawing of lots for the third round began.
Then
"Yu Hao actually drew the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy in the third round!"
You know, among the apparently powerful participating teams, the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy is definitely one of them.
The Tang Sect team also showed extremely strong strength in previous games.
Generally speaking, in order to ensure the enjoyment of the competition and the reasonableness of the rankings, participating teams of this strength will not encounter them in the previous rounds. This is an unspoken rule of the competition.
But now.
"Sister Lexuan, how are Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen doing in the academy?"
Jiang Ming turned to look at Zhang Lexuan and asked softly.
In the past two years or so, Shrek Academy and the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy have been conducting student exchange activities. Even though these people from the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy were hiding and tucking in during Shrek’s exchange, Zhang Lexuan's eyesight should be able to see something.
Zhang Lexuan frowned slightly, recalled the performance of Xiao Hongchen brother and sister in the inner courtyard, and said softly:
"As for Xiaomeng, she has made great progress in martial arts. The poison has been strengthened. As for the level of the soul master, I don't know much about Xiao Hongchen, but his cultivation level is probably close to the seventh ring. If the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy has put in a lot of effort. , he has most likely obtained the seventh soul ring!”
Just like Huo Yuhao and the others did not expose too many of their trump cards at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, the Xiao Hongchen brothers and sisters did not expose too much of their strength at Shrek Academy.
In normal sparring and fighting, one can still judge their soul power cultivation level, but not in terms of soul guides.
Brother and sister Xiao Hongchen don’t think highly of Shrek Academy’s soul mentor technology, so naturally they won’t show too much ability in soul guidance tools.
"Well, that's the seventh level. As for the ability of soul mentors, both of them should be seventh-level soul mentors now."
Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen are Sun and Moon Royal Souls The top geniuses of the Mentor Academy. Generally speaking, the level of soul mentors will be one level higher than the cultivation level of soul masters.
However, if Xiao Hongchen really broke through to the seventh-level soul saint, he would not be able to reach the level of eighth-level soul master just after breaking through the seventh level.
If he really has the level of an eighth-level soul engineer at the age of twenty, then he is another Mingjiang
"So strong? Can the squad leader and the others win?"
Cao Jinxuan asked worriedly.
Jiang Ming looked calm and said: "You underestimate them too much. If nothing else, judging from the current strength, the overall strength over there is better than ours. Four There is only one Soul Emperor here.”
When Wang Qiu'er behind him heard this, he snorted coldly: "I haven't fought before. It's just four soul emperors. It's not like I can't defeat them!"
Wang Qiu'er is a proud character, even if she is the only soul in his team. Emperor, but she will never admit defeat.
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at each other with Zhang Lexuan, chuckled and shook his head.
If it were four ordinary soul emperors, there would be no problem with the strength of Shrek Academy, but the four soul emperors there are not just four soul emperors.
Beibei, the Soul Emperor awakens a holy dragon of light.
Xu Sanshi, the Soul Emperor brought a Xuanwu Awakening.
He Caitou, the soul emperor leads a seventh-level soul mentor.
Wang Donger, the Soul Emperor brings martial soul fusion skills.
Needless to say in the Soul King stage, Jiang Nannan’s combat level is absolutely top-notch in the Soul King stage, and Xiao Xiao is a twin martial soul who is also top-notch.
And Huo Yuhao, like Jiang Ming, is a cheater.
It's not that Jiang Ming has no confidence in Wang Qiu'er and the others, but that this lineup can't be beaten no matter what.
Even Jiang Ming dared to assert that even if Xiao Hongchen from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy broke through the seventh ring, they would still lose!
In this competition, if there are no surprises, they should compete with the Holy Spirit Sect and the Noumenon Sect for the first place.
As for Shrek, let's strive for a top four. If we are not as good as the top eight, we can't go any lower.
Jiang Ming thought secretly in his heart.
Although the situation in this competition is not right, after all, we are competing on behalf of Shrek, so we can't lose too badly.
"The Tang Sect gave up the competition, and the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy won!"
Suddenly, the referee's voice sounded on the competition stage.
“What?!”
Everyone in Shrek Academy was stunned.
"What are the squad leaders doing? Even if they can't beat them, they won't just admit defeat!"
Zhou Sichen couldn't understand it.
Jiang Ming smiled slightly and said: "They have better brains than you."
"Huh?"
Jiang Ming continued: "Let me ask you , has Tang Sect already qualified?”
Zhou Sichen nodded: "It has already appeared, but admit defeat"
Jiang Ming said nonchalantly: "What's wrong with admitting defeat? Didn't you see that there are almost no substitutes in the Tang Sect? This If you want to go further in this situation, you must avoid fighting with others in the early stage.
The strength of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy is not weak, at least it is at the level of the top eight, so fight in advance. It makes no sense for them to fight to the death. If they win, the one who deserves to advance will still advance. If they lose, both sides have enough points and will not be eliminated.
So at this time, giving up is the best option. The best choice. It’s hard to get to the end if you only work hard for a while.”
Jiang Ming is actually very satisfied with the Tang Sect’s plan.
This is undoubtedly the wisest choice.
Of course, if they want to fight, they can actually fight. Even if they are injured, he will be there to carry them, and he can heal them no matter how serious the injury is.
But if we really want to fight at this time, no matter whether we win or lose, the strength of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy will inevitably expose some of the Tang Sect’s trump cards.
Not worth it.
“I have to remind you, don’t compete for temporary victory or defeat when it will not affect the final result. The person who laughs at the end is the real winner!”
Jiang Ming said quite seriously.
Everyone in Shrek Academy nodded. A trace of relief appeared on Mr. Mu's young and handsome face. Whether it was Jiang Ming or Yu Hao, they had grown a lot!
Leave the future of Shrek Academy to them, there is no problem at all!
However, he must hurry up and regain his peak strength, Xiaoyao and Xishui. Alas.
Mr. Mu sighed slightly in his heart.
The two best friends who were once close friends are now on the side of the evil soul master
The third round of the elimination round of the Continental Young Senior Soul Master Elite Competition was so brutal that it exceeded many people's expectations. .
In order to occupy a place in the round robin, many games were played red-eye.
After one round, five people were killed and more than twenty people were seriously injured. On average, there were casualties in every battle.
For this reason, many teams also raised objections to the competition organizing committee and strongly questioned the referee's ability to control the game.
Some people even applied to transfer Ming Jiang back. At least when he was the referee, there were no deaths and he seemed to be very responsible.
The competition organizing committee also considered it, but was rejected by Jing Hongchen.
The next game will definitely involve Shrek Academy and Tang Sect. If a few insidious guys there anger Ming Jiang again, things will only become more troublesome.
Moreover, Mingjiang himself doesn’t want to be a referee anymore. Being a referee is not as fun as going to the underground forces to show off and make money!
The Sun Moon Empire officials were also troubled by this, so they had no choice but to issue an announcement, promising that in the following games, the referee would control the pace of the game as much as possible to reduce casualties.
Although the Tang Sect admitted defeat in this round, Huo Yuhao’s feat of scoring full points against seven in the first round, coupled with the foundation laid in the second round, allowed him to successfully qualify with a small score advantage. But the ranking is relatively low.
After the third round, a day of rest is required before the round robin draw ceremony is held. And this day is also the day when the Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition in the underground world officially begins.
On days when there are no games, most of the participating teams that have entered the next stage are reviewing their games, discussing tactics, and striving to gain a greater advantage in the round-robin competition.
But there are some people who are not idle.
Huo Yuhao and Caitou went to the Xishui League to participate in the official Mingdu Soul Mentor Elite Competition.
And Ming Jiang also appeared at the competition venue of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce as promised, while Jiang Ming went to explore the situation near Mingdu alone.
Mr.
After Zhang Lexuan ordered Wang Qiuer and others to formulate their own tactics, she also left the hotel and went to somewhere in Mingdu.
A few years ago, she supported several caravans in Mingdu and secretly engaged in the purchase of rare metals.
In the past, rare metals from Mingdu and other places in the Sun and Moon Empire had been sent to Shrek City through caravan channels.
But now that she is in Mingdu, just come directly to her.
She can also check the accounts here in the capital to see how the situation is here.
Besides them, the participating teams from Star Luo Empire, Tianhun Empire, and Dou Ling Empire are also doing something secretly.
After learning that Mingdu was surrounded, they had to find a safe way to evacuate Mingdu after the game.
At the Aodu Hotel, when Ming Jiang came here wearing a mask, the middle-aged man from before was already waiting at the door.
Next to the middle-aged man was a slender man wearing a black gown.
"Hello, I am the elder of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce. You can call me Kano."
Kano took a few steps forward and saluted Mingjiang respectfully. The middle-aged man behind him People followed immediately.
Ming Jiang nodded slightly, not because the person receiving him had changed.
Anyway, here to play.
"Lead the way."
Mingjiang kept his aloof look, oh, his name here is Ah Shai.
Kano took Ah Shai to a large lounge next to the golden hall on the underground floor, asked his men to serve various fruits and drinks, and then took out a document and handed it to Ah Shai.
"This is."
Kano said: "These are some rules and rewards of the competition, as well as the events of the competition."
Ah Shuan frowned slightly and threw the document on the coffee table.
"Just explain it, I'm too lazy to read."
It's embarrassing, but Kano doesn't have any resentment.
The person standing behind this person is the ninth-level soul master Ming Jiang! And behind Mingjiang stands the Mingde Hall, or even the Royal Enshrinement Hall!
If he had such a powerful background, he would probably be crazier than him!
A few minutes later, Kano explained some of the rules and rewards of the game, as well as the betting situation.
When he heard that if he directly placed a bet on the number of people who would eventually qualify, he would receive a reward that was the same multiple as that number of people, he was really excited.
If this bet is successful, it can be said to be a wave of fatness!
But unfortunately, the probability of winning this bet is too small.
Moreover, the operability here is so great that it is almost impossible for people to win money from it.
From Kano's mouth, Ah Shai learned that the topic of this competition was the making of baby bottles.
It is required to complete the production of a milk bottle of at least level 3 or above within three hours. If you can't complete it, you will be eliminated.
Although it is also a level three soul guide, the manufacturing process of the milk bottle is so complex that it can be compared with an ordinary level four soul guide. It is indeed much more difficult than the previous qualifying round.
But to him, there was no difference.
Under the guidance of Kano's subordinates, Ah Shai was directly invited to the central circular platform and placed in a more eye-catching place. The silver-white tabletop did not reflect any light under the bright lights.
In addition to various equipment for making soul guides, there are a total of ten different metals presented on the soul guide making table.
Three of them are rare metals suitable for making the core array of milk bottles. The other seven, although not rare, are also valuable high-end metals and are very heavy.
The seven high-end metals all exceed three kilograms, and the three rare metals also weigh one kilogram each.
It can only be said that there are really many rare metals in the Sun and Moon Empire!
"Silence! The competition officially begins in five minutes. I am the chief referee of this round of competition. I will repeat the rules of the competition. All guests are not allowed to make any sound while the soul masters are making soul guides. Violators will be expelled. Outside the arena."
"Please note, soul masters, I am now announcing the content of this round of competition.
This round of competition is for the production of propositional soul guides, requiring everyone to make at least one level three. If you can complete the level 4 or above, you will be exempted from the test and will directly enter the third round of the competition. Those who do not complete the competition will be eliminated. "< br>
Kano's voice spread throughout the audience through the sound-transmitting soul guide, and as he began to speak, all the soul engineers began to get busy.
Ah Shai thought for a while, and the next round of testing for milk bottles above level 4 will be exempted.
Then just make a big one!
