Douluo Royal Knight

A year passed in a blink of an eye, and now there were nine people standing at the gate of Hanxue City.

Eight of them were Yang Yi and the others, and the other one was a huge man. He was the 30 soul beast Ice Bear King Xiaobai transformed into a human form.

Xiaobai's current identity is the dean of the Far North Knight Academy.

Xiaobai looked at Yang Yi and the others and said, "Xiaoyi, just go and participate in that competition first. I will protect you in the dark."

Yang Yi glanced at Xiaobai and said, "I understand, Xiaobai, don't worry."

Then Xiaobai disappeared in front of Yang Yi and others.

Then Yang Yi and the others got into a huge carriage, which was used by the city lord of Hanxue City for them to travel on their way. The carriage was so huge that even if Yang Yi and the eight of them sat in it, they didn't feel crowded.

At this time, Yang Yi said to Xingyue, "Xingyue, come and tell us the rules of this competition."

Xingyue is the think tank among them, so some intelligence and tactical planning are made by Xingyue in cooperation with Yang Yi.

Xingyue walked up to the crowd at this time and said, "The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition is the largest martial spirit competition in the soul master world, initiated and hosted by the royal families of the two empires, Tiandou and Xingluo, and co-organized by the Spirit Palace. The strength of the participants is second only to the Wuhundian Elite Selection. Among the rules, there are several things that must be observed. First of all, the students sent by the participating colleges must be under 25 years old and be able to maintain the quality of each competition. The number of people reached seven. Secondly, during the competition, for the purpose of friendly competition, try to avoid injuring or maiming the opponent as much as possible. Death is not allowed. Once an opponent is killed, the college will not only bear the corresponding losses. In addition, he will also be expelled from the Soul Master Competition."

At this time, Zihan said, "It's really troublesome. You have to be timid to do it."

Xingyue did not follow Zihan's words, but continued, "In addition to these two rigid rules, there are some more standardized rules, all based on fairness. For example: During the competition, no non-food systems are allowed to be used. and medicines or food made by healing soul masters. Only food or healing soul masters on the field have the right to replenish their own team members. In other words, if you want to obtain supplies in the competition arena, then the auxiliary soul master The master must occupy a spot on the field. This avoids the possibility of cheating by teams with food-type soul masters. But this is nothing to us. Among us, not to mention the food-type soul master, even one There are no auxiliary soul masters. In addition, there is a rule that you cannot use any weapons other than martial arts. These are the general rules. If there is anything to add, I will tell you during the game. Next, let me tell you Let’s talk about the format of this competition.”

As he spoke, Xingyue took out a piece of white paper from his storage soul guide and drew two circles on it.These two circles represent the two empires. "Then, Xingyue drew a small circle next to the two large circles that connected with the two circles at the same time, "This represents the Wuhun Palace. "

"Among the two empires, the total number of advanced soul master academies totals approximately one hundred. Each academy has a share of the competition, and the two empires each have an official advanced soul master academy, which will occupy two Share. Like the Tiandou Empire, it is the Tiandou Royal Academy where Hong Yue was before. The shares of these two official high-level soul master academies are divided into the home team and the deputy team. The home team will directly advance to the finals. This is also the A guarantee of face for the royal families of the two empires. The deputy team will participate in the preliminaries together with the soul master teams from other colleges."

Xingyue drew several small circles within the two large circles, "The qualifiers will be divided into zones. Among them, because we are going to the Tiandou Empire to participate in the qualifiers, the Tiandou Empire's side is centered on Tiandou City. Within the Tiandou Empire, all advanced soul master academies that do not belong to other kingdoms and principalities will conduct preliminary rounds in the Tiandou City division. The advanced soul master academies of each kingdom and principality will conduct preliminary rounds according to the division of countries. There are a total of Tiandou Empire Four kingdoms and one principality. In other words, counting the Tiandou City division, there will be a total of six qualifier divisions on the Tiandou Empire side. In addition to one team that has been sent to the finals, these six divisions will compete for ten Five participating places. Among them, the Tiandou City Division will have five qualifying places because it has many high-level soul master academies and is a division directly under the empire. The other four kingdoms and one principality will each have two qualifying places. The situation in the Star Luo Empire is almost the same as that in the Tiandou Empire.”

"That is to say, through the qualifiers, there will be [-] soul master teams entering the next stage. These [-] teams will all participate in the finals. But before participating in the finals, there will be a promotion match. The so-called promotion The competition is actually a ranking match against the teams that have already entered the final. The order of appearance in the finals will be determined according to the order of ranking.”

The formats of the qualifying rounds and promotion rounds are different.The qualifiers will be conducted in the team battle format you are most familiar with.In a single round-robin format, the team with the highest winning points in each preliminary division will advance to the promotion round.The promotion competition will be conducted in a special way.Although the participating teams still sent seven participating students, they competed one by one.The winner will stay on the field, and the loser will continue to send students until all the students on one side fail. "

"Therefore, the qualifiers can be said to be a competition to show the strength of the team, while the promotion competition is a stage to display individual strength. The reason why there is a promotion competition is to let the high-level officials of the two empires and Wuhundian learn from these participating students. It is better to recognize some particularly outstanding young soul masters."

"There will be a total of 33 participating teams in the finals, and lots will be drawn for a brutal knockout round. One of the extra teams is the Wuhundian team from Wuhundian where Zihan was previously."

"The ranking of the promotion competition will be carried out separately in the two empires, ranked from one to fifteen. The benefits of this ranking will be revealed in the finals. The finals will adopt a knockout system. In each round, there will be several teams Bye. In the first round, the three seeded teams will have a bye. The other [-] teams will compete against each other, and the [-] winning teams will participate in the next round. In the second round, including the three seeded teams, there will be a total of [-] teams. At this time, among the remaining teams, the top two teams in the promotion competition will have a bye. Eight of the remaining sixteen teams will enter the third round. There are only ten participating teams in the third round. There are still two byes at the top of the ranking competition. Teams that have already had a bye will not have a second bye. After the third round, there will be six remaining teams. That is, the final six in the competition. At this time, there will be no bye teams. In the fourth round, the six teams will draw lots and compete against each other. The final top three will be determined. The final ranking of the top three is determined for fairness, and requires two competitions: team battles and individual elimination battles Way."

"First of all, there is an individual elimination match, which is a competition system like the promotion match. The three teams compete in the form of a fight. Each side sends seven players. They take turns to play. The loser is eliminated, and the winner continues to face the next opponent. Until all students from the other two colleges are eliminated, the winner's college will be promoted directly. The other two colleges will have a team battle to determine another promotion ranking, and the final team battle will be with the team that was previously promoted through the individual knockout competition finals."

Then Xingyue said, "These are all the rules for this Soul Master Elite Competition."

Yang Quan complained at this time, "It makes my head spin after listening to it for so long. It's so complicated."

At this time, Yang Yi said, "It's actually simple. As long as we win every game, we don't have to worry about the complexity of the rules. But we have to remember that we don't have substitute players, so in every battle We must keep some trump cards and not get injured easily during the battle."

At this time, Hongyue said slowly, "We just need to push directly horizontally."

At this time, others said, "It's really difficult for you to say this."

But although others said it was a bit difficult, their bodies and expressions were extremely relaxed.

It took seven days for the carriage to set off from Hanxue City and finally arrived at its destination.

The capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City.
