Chapter 413
Just like that, three days later, the finals were officially ushered in.
Grandmaster had already returned when everyone entered Martial Spirit City. He didn't mention the reason for his disappearance, and no one asked.
During these three days, Grandmaster also explained the rules to everyone.
The rules of the finals were actually very simple.
There were only five rounds. The loser would be eliminated directly through drawing lots.
In the first three rounds, three seeded teams would get a bye. The remaining 85 teams would fight, and half of them would be eliminated.
In the second round, the first ranked team would get a bye. If the first ranked team was already eliminated, the second ranked team would get a bye, and so on.
Therefore, the top 65 teams would be decided in the second round.
In the third round, the second ranked team would get a bye. The remaining eight teams would fight to determine the top six.
In the fourth round, there would be no bye. The top three would be decided directly.
In the last round, the individual battles would determine the two losers' groups and the winner's group. Then, the two losers' groups would fight for a spot to challenge the winner's group. After that, the champion, second runner-up, and third runner-up would be determined.
"Because the competition is decided by drawing lots, no one knows who their opponent will be. In the first round, the Shrek's Seven Monsters will fight as a warm-up. "
There was a hint of gloominess in the Grandmaster's eyes, but he hid it well. "You'll have a bye to rest, so cherish it. Among the teams from the Star Luo Empire, only the first two teams are truly a threat to you."
The strength of the 60 teams was already clear after the preliminaries and the promotion round.
Even if they had trump cards, it would be very difficult for them to make a comeback in the finals.
Moreover, every round was a life-and-death battle. Once they lost, they would be eliminated directly. Therefore, many teams would use their trump cards in every round. It would be a tough battle.
This reflected the benefits of the promotion round. Having two byes meant that they would have time to rest. One less round meant that they could conserve their strength to the greatest extent.
"Lin Feng, you won't be participating in the first three rounds. It's up to you."
Grandmaster glanced at Wang Feng and said, "If there are no accidents, you will still have to rely on your own strength."
Everyone nodded.
Then, Grandmaster explained the rules of the finals in detail to everyone.
After the explanation, Grandmaster and Wang Feng stayed behind. The rest of the team prepared to go to the competition venue.
"Lin Feng, the finals are very dangerous."
"I already know that you were attacked on the way here," the master said in a low voice. But since you want to continue participating, then I will definitely support you. However, you can't hide your identity in the finals. "
"I don't want to continue hiding it." Wang Feng smiled. "If you can't hide it, then forget it."
He had entered the competition with a 4: 6 odds. Initially, he had only wanted to test his strength. However, he did not expect that the more he fought alone, the easier it became for him.
The master nodded and said, "In that case, I won't say anything more. You have to be extra careful. The people of the Martial Spirit Palace are watching you. Although they don't dare to attack you openly, they will think of some other ways to deal with you."
Wang Feng had thought about Grandmaster's warning, but he could only be mentally prepared. It was unrealistic to know what methods the other party would use.
Soon, Wang Feng arrived at the arena.
The arena was specially set up by the Martial Spirit Palace. It was on a plaza only a few thousand meters away from the Pontiff's Palace.
The dueling ring had been completed long ago, and there was a layer of dim white light around it. There were four cylindrical objects that were inserted in various positions around the dueling ring. These were soul tools that were used to reinforce the dueling ring. With these things, the dueling ring's ability to withstand attacks was greatly increased, and anyone below the level of a Soul Emperor wouldn't be able to attack the dueling ring.
Around the plaza, there were temporary resting areas built by various teams.
Because the losers would be eliminated directly, the resting areas were not necessary. However, there were more than thirty teams standing around. They were the most elite soul masters of the entire continent. They looked very imposing.
In comparison, the team of Purple Star College seemed more lonely.
There were only a few of them.
Wang Feng stood quietly. At this moment, he was standing in the Purple Star College area with a 4: 6 odds.
Many teams looked over from afar. Most of them were from the Star Luo Empire.
At the front, there was also a row of VIP seats.
However, the Pontiff would not come. Only in the last round of the competition, when they entered the Pontiff's Palace, could they see the Pontiff.
Purple Star College's resting area.
Not long after, Dean Fei Lun walked back. He was sweating profusely.
"Your first opponent isn't too good …"
Dean Fei Lun laughed bitterly. "It's Ares College, which is ranked first in the Silla Empire."
Wang Feng was speechless.
Is this dean so unlucky?
There were 85 teams and they drew lots at random. How did you manage to pick the First Academy?
"I've asked around. Ares College is one of the most powerful schools in the Silla Empire."
Dean Fei Lun sighed. "All of them are above Rank 96. Most of them have both offensive and defensive martial souls. They don't have any obvious weaknesses. Two of them are agility-type, one is assault-type, one is control-type, two are support-type, and one is defense-type. It's a perfect combination. "
With the name Ares College, they were naturally not simple.
To be able to fight their way out of the Star Luo Empire meant that they were not simple either!
Furthermore, the Star Luo Empire was stronger than the Heaven Dou Empire.
The quality of their soul masters was slightly higher.
Wang Feng thought about the team from the Imperial Star Luo Academy that the Star Luo Empire had recommended. He wondered how strong they were!
"We met such a strong opponent in the first round …"
Dean Fei Lun shook his head. "With your Rank 90 strength, it'll be difficult to defeat them."
Wang Feng felt that he was being manipulated under the table again.
After drawing lots, they quickly started fighting.
Wang Feng looked at his opponent's information and pondered.
On the other side.
"Our luck is too good … I didn't expect the Blazing Academy to admit defeat directly."
Ma Hongjun chuckled.
When Dean Flender drew lots and told everyone the results, they were overjoyed.
Shrek Academy's first match was against the Blazing Academy. They didn't expect them to admit defeat directly.
"Then, we only need to fight one match tomorrow. We'll have a bye for the next match. We're in the top six. "
Tang San thought for a moment and smiled slightly. "If Brother Feng were here, he'd probably say that we're lucky again."
Everyone laughed. Wang Feng didn't come because the Master said that he wouldn't be participating in the first three rounds.
"Oh right, who did the Nine-To-One draw draw?"
Tang San seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but ask.
"It's Ares Academy from the Star Luo Empire."
Flender said, "When I went to draw lots, I paid special attention. But I'm not familiar with the Star Luo Empire. I only know that Ares Academy seems to be the first in the Star Luo Empire's advancement competition. Their luck is much worse than ours. "
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Interesting.
In the first round of the competition, the first in the two empires' advancement competitions were going to face each other directly?
Did this mean that one team would be eliminated if they lost?
"Ares Academy is also one of the two academies from the Star Luo Empire that can pose a fatal threat to you!"
Flender continued.
"I know a little about Ares Academy."
At this moment, Dai Mubai suddenly said.
Hearing this, everyone looked at him in surprise.
