Chapter 246
The next morning.
The huge Red Bird Stadium was already crowded with people. Not only did millions of spectators enter the stadium early, but even more people gathered on the huge square outside the stadium.
Because the huge screen projected in the sky by the Red Bird Stadium covered the entire imperial capital.
But in order to watch and contact their idols more closely, a distant existence that they could never touch in their lifetime, many people, whether locals or tourists from other places, came to the huge square outside the Red Bird Stadium to watch.
Inside the stadium.
Towering in the center of the stadium were four huge alloy square platforms.
On the four alloy square platforms, there were three slightly smaller alloy arenas.
The central area connecting the four alloy square platforms was a cylindrical stage.
Outside the alloy square platform were logistics personnel ready for rescue at any time, and the best medical rescue personnel in the Federation.
On the stage.
The hosts Chu Yang and Xiao Tong were already holding microphones, talking about yesterday's clearance list and today's promotion process.
"The tense and exciting second round of competition is about to begin. After the decision of the five major college league judges, the second round of competition process is as follows."
"The second round of promotion qualifications will adopt the attack and defense arena system."
"The attack and defense arena system is divided into four groups, A, B, C, and D, with 25 contestants in each group."
"The contestants who passed the first level yesterday will draw lots to decide which group they belong to."
"One thing to note is that the seeded players in the first echelon yesterday showed an excellent performance that crushed other players."
"In order to be fair and just, and to prevent the seeded players from meeting too early, the judges have temporarily added a restriction."
"The sixteen seeded players in the first echelon will be drawn with red tickets, and four people will be randomly drawn from each group."
"Each group will have three arenas, and three champions will be qualified to advance to this round."
Xiao Tong pointed to the three slightly smaller alloy arenas on the four huge alloy platforms and explained to the audience in a crisp voice.
"Then, I declare the second round of the competition officially started."
Chu Yang looked at the time and picked up the microphone to speak.
Ding!
At this time, the entire Red Bird Hall rang a crisp bell, which was the bell for the official start of the martial arts competition.
Solemn and solemn.
When the bell rang, all the contestants began to go on stage, and the presidents of the five major universities and the senior officials of the Federation who served as judges for this competition also went on stage one by one.
Then, the draw began.
"No. 001 Wei Ruo, Group B."
"No. 002 Chu Bowen, Group D."
"No. 003 Hua Siyu, Group C."
......
"No. 032 Li Haobai, Group D."
"No. 039 Fang Baiyun, Group A."
......
"No. 059 Xu Tiangang, Group A."
......
"No. 080 Gao Dan, Group C."
......
"No. 707 Jiang Li, Group A."
Soon, all 100 contestants got their grouping cards.
After Jiang Li took a look at the Group A card, Fang Baiyun and Xu Tiangang looked at him.
Jiang Li just raised his hand, showed his red Group A card, and walked towards the A alloy table.
"Seven hundred and thirty-eight into one hundred, one hundred into twelve, this year's five major college league is a bit cruel."
In the VIP seats in the front row of the gymnasium, a middle-aged man with stubble sighed, scratched his head and whispered.
"It's impossible not to be cruel. The situation on Zuxing is turbulent now, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is not honest. In addition, the foxes hiding in the dark are gradually rising."
"If the Federation doesn't make changes, I'm afraid..."
Next to the middle-aged man, a well-dressed middle-aged man with a slicked-back hair responded in a low voice.
"That's right, a flower in a cradle can never really grow up."
The middle-aged man with stubble nodded.
"I heard that the little girl of the Chu family seemed to go to the five major universities. Why didn't I see her participating in this competition?"
The middle-aged man with a slicked-back hair seemed to remember something and asked the beautiful woman on the right.
"Alas, Yue girl and her parents had some estrangement after all, and she ran away to Jiangnan Martial Arts University alone."
The beautiful woman shook her head helplessly, but didn't say much in the end.
"Speaking of Jiangnan Martial Arts High School, what do you think of that boy?"
The middle-aged man with slicked back hair saw that the beautiful woman didn't want to talk more, so he didn't ask any more questions and turned to ask about Jiang Li.
"I checked it out, and it seems to be related to the Mu family, but most of the clues are broken."
The beautiful woman thought for a moment andAfter the investigation, he told the information he got.
"Mu family? Mu Qingxue?"
The middle-aged man with stubble was suddenly speechless.
"I can't be completely sure, but Yaozi can confirm that Jiayi and Jiaer seem to have had contact with Jiang Li."
The beautiful woman glanced around and spoke again.
"Jiayi, Jiaer?"
The middle-aged man with slicked back hair suddenly frowned.
"Let's stop discussing Jiang Li. Jiang Li has nothing to do with the Mu family. You don't have to investigate this kid. Take back the people who should be taken back."
The old man on the left of the middle-aged man with stubble narrowed his eyes and said coldly to the few people.
Hearing the old man's words, the beautiful woman trembled, and a trace of cold sweat appeared on the forehead of the stubble.
As for the middle-aged man with stubble, although his face was calm, his clenched fist was shaking involuntarily.
"Watch the game carefully, there will be surprises."
The old man didn't even look at the others, but looked at Jiang Li who was walking towards the golden square stage of Group A. He didn't know what he was thinking.
Group A Golden Stage.
The 25 contestants were all on guard, Jiang Li was not in a hurry, and carefully looked at his competitors in the same group.
Fang Baiyun also smiled lazily and observed with interest.
Xu Tiangang remained silent.
The remaining seeded players of Thunderbolt Martial Arts High School, Lei Siyuan saw that the other three seeded players were not in a hurry to go on stage, so he didn't rush to go up either.
However, if the seeded players didn't go up to defend the ring, would they let the second and third echelon players go up to defend the ring and accept the round-robin battles of the players below the stage?
Therefore, the two sides seemed to be in an awkward situation here, and no one was willing to be the first to come forward.
"I'll go up and meet them first."
A few minutes later, Xu Tiangang, who had been silent, suddenly jumped towards the No. 1 ring and stood on it.
"Okay, I'll take the lead and learn your skills."
Seeing Xu Tiangang coming on stage, a tall young man immediately stepped onto the alloy platform and came to the ring.
"Jiangnan Martial Arts High School, Xu Tiangang."
Xu Tiangang said slowly, holding a long sword.
"Imperial Capital Martial Arts High School, He Cheng."
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
Boom!
As soon as the two finished speaking, a roar of metal collision broke out on the ring.
Xu Tiangang rushed forward in one step, and the whole person was like a sharp blade, cutting towards He Cheng.
He Cheng's face was solemn, and a pair of gloves made of black iron also turned into a gust of black wind, and his fists turned into palms, and he slapped towards Xu Tiangang.
Swoosh!
Boom!
The piercing screams sounded almost at the same moment.
Before everyone could see what was going on, Xu Tiangang kicked He Cheng in the abdomen, making a loud bang.
At the same time, He Cheng was kicked. Although he did not fly backwards, his expression was distorted. He jumped back a few steps, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Xu Tiangang? I remember it."
He Cheng took a deep breath, forced down his internal organs, and made another opening move.
He knew that he would definitely lose in the next ten rounds.
The gap in strength between the two sides was too big. He noticed it just at the moment of the fight.
"The Seven-Star War Emperor Challenge was easily crushed by Brother Xu. It seems that Brother Xu is stable as the champion."
"There is one less place, Jiang Junior Brother, you have to work harder."
Fang Baiyun smiled lazily.
Just Xu Tiangang's amazing knife just now has basically determined one of the top three champions.
Everyone on the stage of Group A was also silent.
They all passed the first test, and those standing here had at least the strength of a six-star war emperor. They also knew that what Fang Baiyun just said was the truth.
