The friendly match between freshmen and sophomores was held as scheduled.
However, the number of second-year students participating this time was surprisingly high.
So many people were stunned that the hosts, Fu Zirui and Zhou Xuexue, were taken aback.
"Xuexue, is it true that all the sophomores who could come have come? Even those aloof arena students and top students are here?"
"Huh? I don't know either."
Participation in this friendly match was not mandatory, and many freshmen did not attend. In previous years, the ratio of freshmen to sophomores was about 4:1.
There will be around 40,000 freshmen and around 10,000 sophomores.
But this year is quite unique, with around 40,000 second-year students attending!
The number of new students remains at 40,000.
The overall number of participants reached a 1:1 ratio?
Even excluding the arena participants and top sophomores, there were still as many as 30,000 ordinary students.
This number is already three times that of the past.
However, upon closer examination, it becomes clear that this is due to multiple factors, such as the monster invasion a month ago, during which they not only watched their mentors fight but also participated in it themselves.
Afterwards, the school took over the medical care for the entire school, but the crisis also caused the mission center's teleportation channel to be temporarily closed. This meant that second-year students could no longer travel freely for missions. So how would they earn school coins after that?
Soon, they also started paying attention to friendly matches between freshmen and sophomores, events they had never paid attention to before.
Since we can't teleport to perform off-campus missions, we might as well participate in school activities and enjoy the process of educating younger students.
The school was also somewhat surprised by the number of students participating, which was almost 70% of the total number of students still active at school.
The number of participants was 20,000 more than in previous freshman competitions.
After all, many third-year students have already left school to intern in military regions.
Few senior students remain on campus; they are the backbone of the military region's special forces, and aside from matters requiring their personal return, they are mostly on duty outside.
Therefore, the school postponed the meeting by one day and customized a new agenda for the exchange meeting.
In the new process, due to the large number of participants, the original practice matches were canceled, and more coaching matches and exchange matches were held.
Because the number of students was relatively close this time, each student could have a second-year student to ask for advice.
Therefore, almost all the canceled practice matches were turned into coaching matches.
The combat training was conducted by senior students who were in their second year.
This not only trains the combat awareness and skills of freshmen, but also improves the command level of sophomores.
Meanwhile, those who believe their team is strong can participate in the ranking competition, and those who rank higher can receive Academy Coins as a reward.
The friendly match lasted for three days, and with the midterm exams just a week away, the students were very satisfied with the arrangements.
After all, for many freshmen, the exchange competition is just a one-sided beatdown. More guidance competitions like this would be more helpful. Moreover, since there are plenty of senior students, they often conduct training in small teams during the guidance sessions.
However, teams like F4, Victory, and Champion don't need coaching matches. They are different from ordinary students, and their daily training is separate from theirs, except for classes and group activities.
However, since they are among the top ten teams in the freshman competition, they need to participate in the sophomore exchange competition, and I heard that they will also have a friendly exchange with some of the top ten teams from the previous year.
To this end, Bu Xiaosai met with Han Fangfang and Zhan Lingchuan early on, and the three of them were discussing the upcoming exchange competition for sophomores.
The first day is for free exchange, the second day is for the top ten individual contestants, and the third day is for the top ten team contestants.
"Bu Xiaosai, have you confirmed your opponents yet?"
"Not yet, but I've already sent the Divine Lord to gather intelligence. I don't see Ni Jun here either; did you send him out as well?"
"Yes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated."
Zhan Lingchuan scratched his head, listening to Bu Xiaosai and Han Fangfang devising tactics, and even starting to gather intelligence before meeting.
I suddenly felt like I was a terrible team leader. I had completely forgotten to send someone to scout out the top ten teams that the second-year students had played for back then.
Meanwhile, Jiang Hanyan, the junior sister standing nearby, immediately asked Chang Shan to gather some information. Although Bu Xiaosai had said that he would share the intelligence later, they couldn't just wait here. The more information they had, the more accurate the intelligence would be.
"You're all at the mid-stage of the first star level, but judging from your appearance, you must have only recently advanced."
"Yes, although I can't compare to you guys, your auras are almost at the late stage of the first star, right? That's fast."
"After all, our superpower ranking is high, and our cultivation speed will only get faster and faster. But no matter how fast we go, we can't compare to the team leader and Vice Team Leader Jiang. They have already reached the first-star perfection and are starting to prepare to become second-star superpower users."
Upon hearing this, Bu Xiaosai looked at Zhan Lingchuan and Jiang Hanyan. They had only been enrolled for two months, yet they were already rapidly advancing from beginner to the second-star level. Their SSS-level superpower ranking was truly well-deserved.
Nowadays, the ranking of superpowers is no longer based solely on strength; it also takes into account overall speed and average ability level.
There are reasons why some God-series and Saint-series superpowers are downgraded to F-level, such as requiring a huge amount of resources.
However, Liu Lang and his group didn't care about such titles. They didn't know what the situation was with other people's divine craftsmen and divine swords, but as long as they could withstand five-star attacks and kill SS-level ability users with their swords, that was enough.
