According to the rules of the fighting competition, each camp needs to send twenty masters, that is, four teams. These four participating teams draw lots to determine their opponents in the preliminary or knockout stages.
Now is the preliminary stage. There are a total of twenty participating teams. Since the schedule adopts a single-elimination tournament system, Li Zexuan just asked the first and second teams of each battalion to come up and draw lots. The bamboo picks stored in the draw tubes said It is the team number of the third and fourth teams of each battalion!
In other words, the first and second teams of each battalion can only draw the third and fourth teams of other battalions, but cannot draw the first and second teams of other battalions. Of course, they may also draw the third team of their own battalion. Team or four!
In this way, there are only ten games in the preliminary stage. Based on the total of five competition venues, each competition venue is equivalent to only two games (both are best-of-five games). The winner advances and the loser directly Elimination greatly shortens the game time! After all, the "main theme" of the major guards in the capital is still to intensify training and prepare for the Turks. It is impossible for Li Zexuan and Duan Zhixuan to let the fighting competition take up too much training time of the soldiers.
Although Qiu Xinggong has never learned new mathematics and does not understand knowledge such as probability theory and random events, he also roughly knows that the probability of directly drawing the E-ziying camp from the Y-ziying camp is relatively small (from a probability perspective, The probability that the first team of the B camp will win the third or fourth team of the E camp is only one-fifth, which is considered a small probability event), so last night he had someone secretly tamper with the bamboo stick with the team number written on it. There was a very shallow, imperceptible scratch on the end of the bamboo sticks of Teams 3 and 4 of the Ziying Team!
As Li Zexuan finished speaking, two sergeants came out from the formation where the five battalions were located. Under the gaze of everyone, in the order from the A-shaped camp to the E-shaped camp, these ten The sergeant came to the square table with the lottery tube in turn, pulled out a bamboo stick, and handed it directly to Li Zexuan. Li Zexuan took it and read it loudly:
"The first team of the A-shaped battalion will face the third team of the B-shaped battalion!"
"The second team of the A-shaped battalion faces the third team of the E-shaped battalion!"
In fact, this lottery order is extremely beneficial to the B-shaped camp, because the only one ahead of them is the A-shaped camp, and the captains of the two participating teams in the A-shaped camp have a probability of drawing the E-shaped camp from ten bamboo sticks. It is still relatively low. When it is the turn of the two captains of the B-shaped camp to draw, they can draw directly to the E-shaped camp based on the secret marks on the bamboo sticks.
But what Qiu Xinggong never expected was that this extremely unlikely event would actually happen!
The captain of the second team of the A-shaped battalion drew the third team of the E-shaped battalion! In this way, in the preliminary round, it is likely that only one team from the B-shaped camp will be able to draw the team from the E-shaped camp!
What's worse is that the opponent of the first team of the A-shaped battalion turned out to be the third team of the B-shaped battalion. Among the Xuanjia army, the A-shaped battalion is recognized as the strongest battalion, and the five members of the first team of the A-shaped battalion The sergeants, Qiu Xinggong all know each other, they are all masters in the middle stage of Qi transformation and above, and all of them have experienced hundreds of battles and have extremely rich combat experience. They are considered the "favorites" to win this fighting competition. The third team of Yiziying faced off against A There is no suspense about the result of the first team of Ziying, and the third team of Yiziying will definitely lose!
In other words, after this first round of preliminary competition, not only will the B-Zi Camp be able to meet only one participating team from the E-Zi Camp, but at least one participating team from the B-Zi Camp will be eliminated!
This is a pretty bad result for Qiu Xinggong!
Here, Qiu Xinggong's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, but over there, the drawing of lots was still going on.
"The first team of the B-shaped battalion will face the fourth team of the E-shaped battalion!"
"The second team of Camp B will face the third team of Camp A!"
"Pfft~!"
The previous matchup information was nothing, after all, it was within Qiu Xinggong's expectation, but Li Zexuan's next sentence, "Team B, Battalion B, will face Team A, Battalion Three," made Qiu Xinggong almost vomit blood!
Do you want to carry it a little bit
Not only did the B-zi camp fail to meet the two participating teams from the E-zi camp, but two of their teams even encountered the A-zi camp
If you had to use one sentence to describe Qiu Xinggong's mood, it would be a waste!
He even had some doubts about whether Li Zexuan had also manipulated the drawing of lots. As for why he said "yes", that was very intriguing!
Although he had some doubts in his heart, there was no proof after all, and Qiu Xinggong himself was guilty, so he could only break his teeth and swallow it, and he had to endure it even if he didn't want to!
But in this way, the situation of the B-shaped battalion can be described as worrying, because two teams of the B-shaped battalion have already encountered the "strong enemy" of the A-shaped battalion. Although the strength of the third team of the A-shaped battalion is not as strong as that of the first team of the A-shaped battalion, it is still possible. It is definitely a difficult opponent. The first team of Yiziying will face it. It’s hard to say whether they will win or lose!
Qiu Xinggong, who originally thought that everything was ready and would have a Tianhu start, never expected that he would have such a bloody start. According to the current draw results, after the first round of preliminary rounds, the four teams of the B-zi camp It is very likely that two teams will be eliminated directly, and they will probably only encounter one W-Ziying team!
Now Qiu Xinggong's only hope is that the first and second teams of the W-shaped battalion can draw the fourth team of the B-shaped battalion! In this case, the B-shaped battalion could "abolish" the two teams of the E-shaped battalion in the first round of preliminary rounds, and he would feel better!
Li Zexuan couldn't see Qiu Xinggong's face as dark as the bottom of a pot. The drawing of lots was still going on. In fact, Li Zexuan didn't care about the result of the drawing, and he had never done anything about it, because he didn't have as many conspiracies as Qiu Xinggong. !
"The first team of the C-shaped battalion faces the fourth team of the T-shaped battalion!"
"The second team of Camp C versus the fourth team of Camp A!"
"The first team of the D-shaped battalion faces the third team of the C-shaped battalion!"
"The second team of the T-shaped battalion faces the fourth team of the B-shaped battalion!"
In fact, as the final draw, the first and second teams of the E-Zi Battalion have nothing to draw. Anyway, the remaining two teams belong to them. It's just a matter of order!
After hearing the results of the draw of the T-shaped camp, Qiu Xinggong clenched his fists in frustration and anger, because as the second team of the T-shaped battalion took away the fourth team of the B-shaped battalion, the first and second teams of the W-shaped battalion were not at all. He might be drawn into the B camp, and his last glimmer of hope was completely extinguished!
After a while, as the first and second teams of the Wuzi Camp were drawn, the preliminary matches of the fighting competition were finally revealed. They are:
A1-B3
A2-E3
B1-E4
B2-A3
C1-D4
C2-A4
D1-C3
D2-B4
E1-C4
Pen 2-D 3
Judging from the results of the lottery, the B-shaped battalion is the most unfriendly, and the A-shaped battalion is the strongest. It doesn’t matter who is drawn anyway. As for the E-shaped battalion, although the first and second teams of the E-shaped battalion failed to draw their own battalion, There are three or four teams, but at least they didn’t draw a strong team like A Ziying. It can be considered that they can go further in the fighting competition!
"... All the lottery results have come out. Now the fighting competition has officially begun. The soldiers of each battalion return to their original positions and start the competition according to the lottery results! The referee team will be in place immediately!"
After repeating the results of the lottery to everyone, Li Zexuan announced loudly to everyone.
"Here~!"
