Time passed, and the group stage came to an end.
The list of the top 100 in the Northwest Theater Command has been released, with a total of 19 people from Tianyun City making the cut.
Nine of them advanced as the top seed in their group.
Upon receiving this result, the top officials of Tianyun City breathed a sigh of relief.
Tianyun did not embarrass themselves this time as the main examination venue!
The presidents and principals all turned their attention to Su Yu and his group.
They knew that simply not being shameful wasn't enough.
Next, these children will make Tianyun City rise completely in the Northwest Theater.
......
The top 100 are out; time for a break.
Su Yu suddenly realized a problem.
It seems that apart from the three of them, no other students in the entire Northwest Theater Command have participated in the four training camps.
There wasn't a single familiar face among these top 100.
Principal Tang Yaodong overheard him and Song Qinghuan discussing this and slowly said, "The Northwest Theater Command has been like this for many years."
“In previous national college entrance examination competitions, the Northwest Theater Command did not have a single candidate in the top 16.”
"The number of people qualified to participate in the four-school training camp is decreasing year by year."
"If it weren't for the three of you this year, our Northwest Theater Command would really be completely empty-handed."
Upon hearing this, Su Yu, Song Qinghuan, and Qiao Qiao were all somewhat puzzled.
Tang Xiaodong's gaze lingered as he recalled some past events.
"It all started with the war twenty years ago."
"In that battle, all the powerful families in the Northwest War Zone perished."
"You young people probably don't have a good impression of so-called aristocratic families."
"But in reality, a prominent family is a representation of the local heritage."
"In that battle, all the scions of the three great families in the Northwest charged to the front and managed to defend the Northwest of our country."
"Almost all of those scions of noble families perished on the battlefield."
"With the decline of the three great families, our Northwest War Zone also entered a low point."
As he spoke, Tang Yaodong remembered another person.
"Speaking of which, do you know Lü Ling?"
"Back then, he was the standard-bearer for our entire Northwest region."
"Alas, what a pity..."
A long sigh.
"Forget it, let's not talk about these things from the past."
"Did you see that Teng Xian? He should be the opponent you need to be most careful of in this grand competition."
"With a Qi and Blood level of 408, and exceptional talent for cultivation before becoming a Martial Artist, I became a Martial Artist in my second year of high school," Su Yu said proactively.
"Ranked forty-eighth on the Dragon and Tiger List, his biggest weakness is that he has not mastered any martial arts."
"If he hadn't reached the Martial Artist realm earlier, he would have had a chance at the Four Schools Training Camp."
As a tactician, understanding the opponent's intelligence is one of the most fundamental aspects.
The principal looked over with some surprise.
He nodded approvingly and smiled, "Since you all know what's going on, saying that we need to be most careful of an opponent is just that—careful."
He stopped acting; he was the most arrogant person there.
What's there to pay attention to? The students of No. 8 Middle School are the strongest; they are aiming to become the top scorers in the country.
While they were chatting, the teachers from other cities were also helping the students analyze the opponents they might encounter next.
Without exception, they excluded Su Yu and Song Qinghuan from their analysis.
If you do encounter it, just play your best; there's no need to force it.
......
The break time is over.
The elimination round, narrowing down the top 100 to 50, has officially begun.
In this round, the first and second place teams in each group will face off, with opponents determined by drawing lots, avoiding teams from the same group or city.
The fifty group winners went up on stage together to draw lots.
Nie Yueqiu stared intently at the people in Tianyun City.
The actions of the people from Tianyun City who came after winning were clearly a provocation against her.
They won't encounter Su Yu and his group, who are ranked first.
At this moment, she hoped to run into other people in Tianyun City.
She wanted to let them know that as the top scholar in Yulian City, not just anyone could try to stage an accident for her.
After the draw, Su Yu's number was a8, and the person who drew B8 was his opponent.
Song Qinghuan's number is a18, and Qiao Qiao's number is a29.
She pouted in disappointment when she didn't draw A28.
The team leader and Sister Qinghuan both have eight, so why don't I?
The second person in the group went up to draw lots.
Both the audience at the scene and those watching on screen were watching to see who would draw Su Yu and Song Qinghuan.
The moment Yu Lian City's runner-up, You Dingwu, drew B8, he instantly looked utterly hopeless.
Meanwhile, the citizens of Yulian City who were watching the live stream wished they could turn it off immediately.
You Dingwu was defeated by Li Wei from Tianyun City, and went from being the number one seed to second in the group.
Now, running into Su Yu has made things incredibly unlucky.
The tension between the two cities has escalated once again.
Fortunately, only Su Yu and You Dingwu met in this round.
If there were a few more groups, the two cities might actually become arch-rivals.
The Tianyun group was extremely disappointed, while everyone in Yulian City, except for Nie Yueqiu, secretly felt fortunate.
Apart from Nie Yueqiu, no one else could possibly defeat them.
......
Generally speaking, the match between the top draft pick and the second-best pick is definitely something to look forward to.
When viewers in other live streams learned that Su Yu was going to face off against the runner-up from another city...
Many people switched to different live streams specifically to watch this competition in the Northwest Theater Command.
Su Yu, who appeared out of nowhere, is the subject of much curiosity.
In the previous group stage matches, he defeated everyone with a single move, and no one could see anything wrong with it.
Now that they're facing the second overall pick, they should be able to force something out of him, right?
