Chapter 516: It’s you, kid?

Add more chapters for IAG_God Awakener Alliance master.

……

With the end of the last match, the top 16 in the country had been decided.

However, the students who had advanced were required to wait at their original spot and were not allowed to leave.

The defeated students and their teachers left the People’s Stadium under the guidance of the organizer’s staff.

The number of people in the audience was already less than 50. Now, half of them had left, causing the stadium to become even emptier.

Competition, ranking, all of this was truly cruel.

The winner and loser would be decided on the same field. The winner and loser would even brush past each other in the audience stands, welcoming different fates and walking towards different lives.

When two completely opposite emotional states of loss, dejection, joy, and celebration appeared in the same picture, the extreme contrast was really glaring.

Since ancient times, the winner was the king and the loser was the bandit. There was nothing to say.

…

But if you were the person involved, would you really be so magnanimous and immediately let it go?

Jiang Xiao watched as a teacher-in-charge comforted a depressed student and left the venue slowly while holding his shoulder. Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but sigh at the sight of the two lonely figures.

Jiang Xiao felt that there were too few teachers who would be leading the team from Star Warriors in Beijing. This time, all three of the Star Warriors from Beijing had advanced, so no one left. However, what if one of them failed and two of them succeeded?

With Mr. Fang Xingyun’s personality, he would probably comfort the defeated student and return to the hotel with him, right?

Jiang Xiao watched the group of people leave silently and disappear into the stadium tunnel.

After half of the audience seats were cleared, a staff member’s voice came from below the audience seats.””Top 16!”

As he spoke, the staff member clapped his hands, attracting everyone’s attention.

The staff member said loudly,”you have two hours of rest. During this time, you are not allowed to leave your seats. If there is any situation, you can ask us. We will try our best to satisfy any reasonable request.”

“In a moment, we will provide lunch for everyone. The location of the meal will be here. Allocate your time properly. After your meal, you can rest or warm up in the company of the staff. However, no form of fighting is allowed.”

Jiang Xiao was slightly stunned and thought, what does that mean?

16 to 8? The match will start in two hours?

As the organizers had kept it a secret, no one knew what the schedule was. The only thing that was certain was that the national team selection was a 1V1 knockout in strict accordance with the World Cup competition standards.

However, in Jiang Xiao’s mind, the top 16 would only advance to the top 8 tomorrow.

The staff member replied,”anyone!” You are not allowed to reveal any information about the competition to the outside world in any form. Remember this. I think you’ve already come this far and don’t want to be kicked out of the national team for breaking the rules. ”

“Everyone, if you feel unwell, or if you have not recovered from the battle just now, please report to us immediately. We have the most professional team to ensure your condition in the next competition.”

While the staff was still informing them, a few other staff members had already pushed the dining cart in.

For a time, the participating students looked at each other.

Is it so difficult to eat in the cafeteria? Did he have to eat in the audience?

Can’t I go to the changing room and sleep for a while? Why did he have to rest here?

However, Jiang Xiao didn’t feel much about it. He believed that none of the students here were rich. After all, they were all people who had been through tough times in the harsh dimensional space. Such a degree of “eating and sleeping in the open” was nothing to them.

It was just that everyone did not understand such a request.

The staff said,”the lot-drawing ceremony will start on time in two hours. After that, we’ll start the promotion match directly. The winner will be directly selected for the national team.”

Don’t be discouraged, losers. Among the eight contestants in the losers ‘group, two of them will be qualified to be substitutes. Under certain conditions, substitutes can replace the top eight contestants. ”

Although that was what he said, no one was interested.

According to the list of players for the national team’s individual competition in the past, the so-called substitutes were no different from mascots and were not qualified to play at all. They could only automatically fill in the positions if the starting players had an accident before the World Cup.

Such situations were rare, especially when accompanied by a top healing team. The possibility of quitting from the start was very low.

But even so, if the eight people of the loser group were given a chance to advance to the big list, he believed that these Star Warriors would work hard to fight for it.

Even if the list of the national team was put aside, the Star Warriors would not allow themselves to be perfunctory or give up in any ordinary competition.

At least, the Star Warriors present were all trained by the country. Under this kind of ideological education of “training for battle and living for victory”, some concepts had been deeply rooted.

“Oh~two meat and two vegetables.” Jiang Xiao rummaged through the lunchboxes and found that the dishes were almost the same. He took out a box and a chicken leg …

He could not help but lick his lips. He was indeed hungry.

Just as Jiang Xiao was about to pick up his chopsticks and start eating, he sensed that the atmosphere was a little strange.

Jiang Xiao looked up and around, only to discover that the students were all looking at him. The staff below had also stopped talking and were looking at Jiang Xiao helplessly.

Fang Xingyun hurriedly walked over and snatched Jiang Xiao’s chopsticks away. He then raised his hand apologetically to the staff member.

“Good luck, everyone,” the staff said.

“Don’t eat too much, it’ll affect your condition for the game. ” After the staff member was done explaining, Zhao Wenlong then advised,”it’s already one in the afternoon. You might feel sleepy after eating.”

Jiang Xiao immediately took a bite of the chicken leg.”I’m just sleeping. Why did you only bring a cup of tea?” he asked.

Zhao Wenlong’s expression was serious as he said in a low voice,””Hunger keeps me fighting.”

Jiang Xiao remained silent for a long while before saying,””Hunger makes me lose my mind.”

Zhao Wenlong was left speechless.

The contestants had all kinds of habits. Some of the students were like Zhao Wenlong and refused to eat! Of course! There were also some who ate like Jiang Xiao! Such as the solo player from the southwest! Wang Xingyan!

The burly bald man was eating in full swing, and Jiang Xiao’s appetite grew as he watched. He forced himself to eat two lunchboxes. As for the big bald guy … He ate five servings.

To be honest, Jiang Xiao had always been exposed to competitions and such. However,”group activities” like this gave Jiang Xiao a fresh feeling.

Many students were resting in their seats with their eyes closed. An hour before the start of the competition, they had asked for instructions from the staff and left the stage to do their preparations to ensure that they were ready for battle.

There was no doubt that there would be at least eight matches in a while. The contestants for the last few matches might have to sit in the stands as spectators for a while, and the students might really need to move around.

Due to the fact that he didn’t have a mobile phone, Jiang Xiao specially instructed teacher Fang to wake him up 20 minutes before the draw ceremony.

With the help of the artificial alarm, Jiang Xiao had a good night’s sleep. After washing his face in the bathroom with the staff, he felt much more refreshed and quickly returned to the venue to exercise.

In the ruins of calamity and shadow, Nine-Tails did not rest at all. He thought to himself that he should bring a clock with him the next time he came here to replenish his stock. That way, he wouldn’t have to trouble teacher Fang to set an artificial alarm. Nine-Tails could wake Jiang Xiao up in his mind.

However, there was no master sparring partner here, so Nine-Tails was a little lonely. He had been sitting cross-legged on the ground for a long time, carefully digesting and absorbing the saber technique techniques that came from his synchrony. The absolutely unexpected usage had opened the door to a new world for him.

Unfortunately, Nine-Tails didn’t have any green glow. Although his skill level was enough to support him in completing any form of “throwing knife,” if he had the help of green glow, it would undoubtedly be like adding wings to a Tiger.

Sigh … When would he be able to have a star map as his alternate account?

Time passed by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the staff once again invited the six-year-old child up.

Obviously, the child’s novelty had passed and he seemed to be tired of playing such games. He was not as happy as he was in the morning. He pouted his little mouth and quickly grabbed the balls one by one.

“First round, number 77!”

Xie Xie stood up and raised his right fist, which was wrapped in black bandages.

A portion of the students secretly prayed in their hearts that they would not encounter this fiend.

“Battle … Number 12!” Along with the voices of the staff, Jiang Xiao even heard some sighs of relief.

No. 12 was a male student of medium build. He didn’t show any expression and raised his hand to show that he had no objections.

“Second round, number 58!” Upon hearing this number, all the students in the hall were in an uproar.

In the top 16, no matter who was chosen, they would still be great gods. However, there were still differences between great gods.

Obviously, as number 58’s substitute player in the same city, he was … They were the students most people didn’t want to meet.

“Battle … Number 61!” The staff unscrewed the table tennis ball that they had received from the child and showed the cross-section.

“.. Ck me …. A young man involuntarily raised his hands. It was not a confirmation that there were no objections, nor was it a surrender. It was the kind of subconscious body movement that one would do when they were very helpless.

Some were secretly happy, some were snickering, and some were secretly pitying him.

Hou Mingming was the one who secretly felt that it was a pity. Her rationality prevented her from challenging Jiang Xiao outside the arena. However, to hou Mingming, the sooner she had a real fight with Jiang Xiao, the sooner she would be able to fulfill her wish!

To be honest, with her personality and past behavior, she was already very patient. She really couldn’t wait any longer.

“Round three, number 81!” The staff member shouted. In the audience, the bald Xing Yan suddenly stood up. His face was fierce as he raised his muscular arm. At the same time, he turned around and glared at the audience.

An earth-shattering pressure swept over. Xing Yan’s aura was majestic, overbearing, and fierce.

There were only a dozen or so people in total. His beast-like eyes could easily tell which one was the coward and which one was the real opponent.

It was obvious that he had already preempted the opponent and overwhelmed the crowd with his momentum. At least some of the contestants avoided his gaze.

“Battle …” The staff member took the ping pong ball, opened it, and shouted,”number 57!”

For a moment,

Everyone looked to their left.

Jiang Xiao raised his right hand to show that he had no objection.

When Xing Yan saw that his opponent was Jiang Xiao, he was immediately stunned …

Xing Yan’s fierce expression turned into one of shock. He rubbed his bald head and toot,””F * ck your father …”

How could it be this kid?

This kid is f * cking … It’s purely an evil path!

It was poisonous …
