After the draw, the military expert announced again, "According to the order of the draw, tomorrow morning, Nanwu will face Xishan Martial Arts University, and in the afternoon, Mowu will face Donglin Martial Arts University."
The remaining matches will be arranged according to the draw order. There will be two matches per day. The first round of elimination matches will consist of five matches, followed by the losers' bracket for qualification for the second round. This will last for five days. The losers' bracket winner will advance to the second round of elimination matches. After that, the top three teams will compete for the championship by winning two matches each.
After announcing the battle objectives and order, the two golden-bodied experts stepped into the air and returned to the second floor.
On the second floor, many masters' expressions changed, especially the masters from Donglin and Xishan, whose faces turned ashen. They hadn't expected to encounter the champion team in the first round. Winning was impossible, so they had to figure out how to arrange things to minimize their losses and then compete for the loser's first place.
The opening ceremony was very simple; the lottery was over, and the Ministry of Education officials were still busy preparing the closing remarks.
The students on stage can leave now. They came here today to draw lots and also to introduce themselves to everyone.
Meanwhile, Huang Jing on the second floor said he wanted to catch up with some old friends, so Lu Hao had to go back alone. As for catching up, he probably wasn't going to show off. It's safe to say Lu Hao was absolutely right; these past two days, all the grandmasters in Jingwu had been harassed by Huang Jing.
The guy's opening line was, "Do you know that Lu Hao from our school has reached the Grandmaster level?" Then he gasped in shock. A 19-year-old Grandmaster? That's terrifying!
Huang Jing was cheerful every day, but the grandmasters in Kyoto were unhappy. This guy couldn't find anyone and started harassing them with phone calls. Huang Jing responded that Kyoto had always been at odds with Magic Martial Arts University, and now that they finally had a chance to overpower Kyoto, how could he give it up? He had to make all the grandmasters understand.
On December 1st, at 8:00 AM, the second national Wuhan University exchange match began at the Kyoto Gymnasium. The morning match was between Nanjiang and Xishan Wuhan University.
Lu Hao even came today, originally thinking he would see Old Wang make a move.
As a result, none of Xishan Wuda's main players played, and they brought up their reserve team directly, clearly aiming for first place in the loser's bracket.
The opposing reserve team even had a third-rank martial artist.
Facing the main team from Nanjiang, they only substituted two players and were then defeated. They didn't even get to see Wang Jinyang.
The morning's matches were quite interesting. Wang Jinyang didn't make a move, and the Nanjiang team's players were quite good, putting up a good fight against the opposing reserve team.
It presented a visual feast to ordinary people, but it was nothing special to grandmasters like Lu Hao.
The media reviews were all positive, praising Xishan Wuda's outstanding tactics, saying that they could win the loser's bracket with minimal losses, and then, like a dark horse, take advantage of the fact that both Mowu and Nanjiang were weakened to seize the championship.
When Lu Hao saw this news, he couldn't help but laugh. How much money did this news outlet get paid to say something like that?
This might fool ordinary people, but it won't even fool them, since the difference between a sixth-rank and a fourth-rank official is too great.
Even if a sixth-rank soldier is injured, they still can't beat him. And do they really think Fang Ping and his men are easy targets? If they dare to underestimate Fang Ping, they'll be in for a world of trouble.
In the afternoon, the Magic Martial Arts University vs. Donglin Martial Arts University match took place. Like the morning's match against Xishan Martial Arts University, Donglin Martial Arts University opted against a direct confrontation, fielding only members of their reserve teams.
The main team is preparing for the losers' bracket, which is sure to be exciting. Both Donglin and Xishan have fielded their main teams there, but only one spot will advance to the second round. The competition between the two martial arts universities will be extremely fierce. The afternoon's matches also showcased Fang Ping's strength to the general public. Fang Ping started the match and defeated four opponents, all of whom were fourth-rank martial artists.
And all of them were clean and efficient. Afterwards, they left the arena citing insufficient qi and blood. Everyone present could see that this was to give Donglin Wu Da face; otherwise, they could have easily defeated him.
This caused an even greater sensation, as Fang Ping's progress over the past year was seen by many as an invincible path from the third rank to the fourth rank, becoming the president of the martial arts club. Now, his peak fourth-rank strength was comparable to that of Li Hansong of the Beijing Martial Arts Academy and Yao Chengjun of the First Military Academy.
Only then did humanity begin to pay attention to this genius whose brilliance had been overshadowed by Lu Hao and his two companions. He was only a sophomore, yet he possessed the same strength as a senior.
Unsurprisingly, Magic Martial Arts University has become even more famous. One or two geniuses could be considered an accident, but so many geniuses are a testament to the high level of education at Magic Martial Arts University.
Countless parents told their children, who were watching the game at home, that they should get into Magic Martial Arts University.
They don't take Lu Hao, a prodigy, as their role model, but rather Fang Ping, a genius.
Lu Hao returned to his room, speechless as he stared at a news article on his phone. This morning, the article had praised Xishan Martial Arts University's superior tactics, suggesting they might be a dark horse, but by the afternoon it had changed to Donglin Martial Arts University's superior tactics. How many times did this newspaper get paid?
Won't such reporting get me dragged out and beaten to death by those masters?
On December 2nd, in the morning, Jingwu played against Zhongzhou Wuda. Jingwu's starting lineup consisted of Li Hansong, who came with the intention of completely dominating the opponent.
As for the Central Plains Martial Arts Team, they naturally couldn't field the reserve team like they did in yesterday's match. Their opponents didn't have any sixth-rank players, and even against the strong Kyoto team, they would have to fight tooth and nail.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to afford to lose face.
Thus began the first all-out match since the start of the tournament.
Li Hansong will face off against Zhong Zhiheng, a peak fourth-rank warrior from Zhongzhou.
It can only be said that Li Hansong truly deserves to be the president of the martial arts club of Jingwu. Although the two are at the same level, their actual combat strength is quite different.
Li Hansong, relying on his iron fists, forcefully suppressed Zhong Zhiheng, preventing him from launching an attack. Zhong Zhiheng tried to create distance...
He was armed with a gun, but Li Hansong immediately closed in. No matter what he did, he couldn't break free. Li Hansong's iron fists were completely unyielding, offering no defense whatsoever, only relentless offense. Seeing this, Lu Hao couldn't help but smack his lips. No wonder Li Hansong's nickname in the original work was "Iron Fist Vajra."
You can tell just from that indomitable spirit.
Soon, under Li Hansong's relentless attack, Zhong Zhiheng could no longer hold on and was sent flying by a punch, falling to the ground powerless to fight back.
Afterwards, Li Hansong defeated two more fourth-rank martial artists from Zhongzhou Martial Arts University before leaving the arena. Zhongzhou Martial Arts University had basically been crushed by Li Hansong, with one remaining fourth-rank high-level martial artist and the other fourth-rank low-level martial artist. The remaining four martial artists from Kyoto were not easy to deal with.
In the end, Jingwu and Zhongzhou Martial Arts University played to a score of 2:5.
Jingwu advanced, while Zhongzhou Martial Arts University entered the loser's bracket, where they will face the fully-formed Donglin and Xishan main teams.
Their injuries were quite severe, and they simply didn't have time to recover, so they had to play despite their injuries.
As for using life essence to quickly recover, that's just wishful thinking.
