"The quarterfinals are about to start, feeling nervous?"
"Bro, how many times have you asked?"
Jiang Yuan, who was anxiously watching the results on the stage, was somewhat speechless and turned to Ai Xiu.
"I've been saying it since the top 200 narrowed down to the top 100, and you're still asking now that it's down to the top eight?"
"Hey, I'm just concerned about you."
Ai Xiu smiled, unfazed as he spoke to Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan rolled his eyes and didn't bother with Ai Xiu's comment.
Are you kidding me? How could I not be nervous?
There were only eight people in the resting room, four ranked first, two ranked second, leaving only himself and Ye Jinhuan.
Ye Jinhuan was also among the top ten.
Being the only unranked one, he felt a psychological pressure.
Now, Jiang Yuan was hoping that in the quarterfinals he would face Ye Jinhuan. At the very least, compared to the other contenders, Ye Jinhuan's combat power was a bit lower.
From the quarterfinals to the champion, you have to fight your way up step by step.
Starting from the weakest in terms of combat power, gradually challenging upward.
This is the tactic that suits my situation.
But this random draw mode didn't allow him to choose his tactics.
The results soon appeared on the screen.
The first match, Li Chengyi versus Ai Xiu!
"Damn, an internal battle!"
Ai Xiu took a deep breath: "Our first match is an internal battle?"
"Ha, go easy on me, will you?"
Li Chengyi laughed when he saw the result, speaking to Ai Xiu.
"What bullshit you're talking!"
Ai Xiu was very upset, cursing inwardly at Li Chengyi.
Such a result, really frustrating.
An internal fight, and even against the top ranker from his own academy.
Annoying!
While they were talking, the participants for the second match also appeared.
The second match, Wei Qiyou versus Ye Jinhuan!
The two exchanged glances, but didn't say much.
After all, they weren't very familiar.
The third match, Shi Zhuan versus Jiang Yuan!
Jiang Yuan's face turned dark when he saw the two names pop up on the screen.
As expected, what I feared has come true!
Honestly, Jiang Yuan was most worried about facing a heavy equipment type warrior like Shi Zhuan.
Against others, the Sky Shattering Arrow's intimidation might still work.
But for Shi Zhuan, it might not be the same.
Even though his Nezha had just gained two more weapons.
Purple Quality[Yin Yang Dual Swords]!
Yet, it still wasn't certain whether this would be effective against a profession like Shi Zhuan's.
Shi Zhuan's previous battles were also observed by him, the defensive power was truly terrifying!
And his attack power wasn't low either!
It seemed somewhat strange.
However, the opponents Shi Zhuan faced before weren't very strong, so it wasn't clear.
Jiang Yuan took a deep breath. After the results came out, he inexplicably calmed down a bit.
Seeing the result of the third draw, Shi Zhuan also turned his head to look at Jiang Yuan.
Seeing Jiang Yuan's serious face, Shi Zhuan's lips curled up slightly.
Jiang Yuan!
Your three arrows pose no threat to me!
Although I don't know the exact way to counter, it's very likely to be countered by touch-based attacks.
More importantly, knowing just this is enough.
He has ways to resolve the issue of these three arrows!
Besides these three arrows, what other means do you have?
Another card spirit?
Can its attack break through my defense?
Shi Zhuan smiled, his gaze sweeping past Huang Huanqing's face.
Although Huang Huanqing was expressionless, Shi Zhuan inexplicably saw that invincible confidence on Huang Huanqing's face!
Shi Zhuan withdrew his gaze, looking up at the screen in the arena.
The participants for the fourth match had also come out, Huang Huanqing versus Bai Fuzi!
Bai Fuzi looked resigned.
Or rather, since the information of the third match came out, Bai Fuzi knew who his opponent would be.
After all, among the top eight, only he and Huang Huanqing were left.
This opponent who had eliminated him before entering the quarterfinals!
And here they meet again in the quarterfinals!
Confident?
Of course not!
Bai Fuzi sighed, completely clueless on how to defeat his opponent.
"Beast Taming Card Master, their combat power is truly terrifying."
Bai Fuzi finally spoke resignedly after some time.
Wei Qiyou, standing next to him, didn't have much of a solution either, patting Bai Fuzi's shoulder as if to comfort him.
After the fight information came out, the battles officially began.
The first match was between Ai Xiu and Li Chengyi.
Both being long-range attackers, neither had the intention to approach.
Though Ai Xiu, as an archer, had a slightly longer attack range, he still couldn't defeat Li Chengyi.
In the end, Li Chengyi cornered him and used a powerful Fire Attribute Skill Card to finish Ai Xiu off.
"Yielding!"
"Yielding my ass, yielding!"
After the fight in the Martial Arts Arena, Li Chengyi spoke jokingly to Ai Xiu, his face all smiles.
Ai Xiu, unreservedly, responded with expletives.
The two of them were just too familiar, familiar to the extent that Li Chengyi knew exactly how to attack him!
This fight was just that, he had no chance to perform at all, being defeated by Li Chengyi's familiar tactics.
Every time, it was the same, using wide-range attacks to corner him, leaving him with no way to escape and then unleashing a powerful attack to pin him down.
Ai Xiu was confident, if there were no boundaries, in an unlimited space, like in the second battleground, even if he couldn't defeat Li Chengyi, he would surely give him a hard time.
But not like now, where every time due to the boundaries of the Martial Arts Arena, he gets defeated by Li Chengyi using the same tactics!
