Global Dungeon: My Support Is Too Strong

273 Drawing Lot Ceremony

Very soon, the drawing of lots for the National Class Tournament’s knockout officially began.

The top 16 teams in the semi-final stage were Yanjing Hunter University’s Li Tiancheng, Yanjing Hunter University’s Lu Ziling, Zhejiang Hunter University’s Zhou Qingfeng, Hudan Hunter University’s Wang Zining, Huaqing Hunter University’s Guo Shiyun, and Zhejiang Hunter University’s Lu Benwei.

Sixteen teams which consisted of more than eighty people stood in the main venue of the tournament, waiting for the next instructions from the organizer.

Below the stage, in the lounge of each university, the remaining participants stretched their necks to watch the big screen with their hearts in their mouths.

“We must draw a good lot and bless Qingfeng and Benwei to enter the top eight.” Liu Yi clenched his fists nervously, and every pore on his body was sweating.

He clasped his hands together for a while and finally muttered, “Bless, bless…”

After a while, he began to pace anxiously in the lounge with his hands behind his back.

“Why hasn’t it started yet? Why has it only been a minute?”

Chen Yuan was amused by Liu Yi’s actions. “Mr. Liu, just sit down and take a rest. I believe that the children will enter the top eight.”

“I understand the logic, but what if he meets a pervert like Li Tiancheng or Wang Zining?” Liu Yi replied.

“How can there be such a coincidence? There are 16 teams that have entered the elimination round, not just the few teams you mentioned.” Chen Yuan waved his hand and did not mind.

At this time, a melodious bell rang, and the drawing lot ceremony officially began.

Wan Yun went on stage. “This knockout will draw lots. There will be two small balls with the eight letters A to H. There will be two small balls with each letter. The small balls with the same letter will be the two sides of the next round.

“First of all, let’s start with Li Tiancheng from Yanjing Hunter University, who won first place in the semi-final!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the hall instantly became heavy. Not only that, but the lounge of the various universities below the stage also instantly became silent.

Li Tiancheng slowly walked forward and put his hand into a black box. A moment later, he took out a small ball with the letter D on it.

Immediately, the tournament ground was in an uproar. The last eight teams all began to chant, “Don’t let me get D, don’t let me get D.”

Li Tiancheng smiled faintly, put away the small ball, and returned to his seat.

Next, Lu Ziling. A moment later, she returned to her original position with a small ball with the letter E written on it.

Zhou Qingfeng, C!

Wang Zining, B!

Guo Shiyun, D!

When he announced the letter, there was an uproar. The opponent for the first round was finally out.

Li Tiancheng from Yanjing Hunter University versus Guo Shiyun from Huaqing Hunter University. The two schools had been in a feud for many years and had always been fighting openly and secretly.

It was a pity that Huaqing Hunter University lost this year. They would probably be suppressed by Yanjing Hunter University for a year.

Chen Yuan sent a message to the principal of Huaqing Hunter University, “You guys have been betting on Yanjing Hunter University for so long. It’s time to taste what it’s like to be bet on.”

The principal of Huaqing Hunter University’s face was livid, but he could not refute Chen Yuan’s words.

“Cut the crap, it’s your Lu Benwei’s turn to draw.”

At this time, Lu Benwei slowly stepped forward and put his hand into the black box. When he opened his hands to look, he was instantly stunned. He was frozen in place to a degree that was visible to the naked eye.

“No way, such a coincidence?” Lu Benwei said in surprise. This result was obviously beyond his expectations.

Suddenly, Chen Yuan and Liu Yi’s hearts skipped a beat. The corners of Liu Yi’s mouth twitched.

“Principal, we’ve been underestimating a situation all this time. Although the probability of that situation happening is only one in sixteen, it’s not impossible.”

Chen Yuan’s expression changed, and he said, “It shouldn’t be such a coincidence.”

At this time, the staff in charge of registration glanced at the small ball in Lu Benwei’s hand, then shouted with an indifferent expression, “Lu Benwei, C!”

As soon as these words came out, the inside and outside of the venue suddenly became lively.

Lu Benwei, C!

In other words, his opponent would be someone who had also drawn a C, Zhou Qingfeng of Zhejiang Hunter University.

“Haha, it’s like a flood washing over the temple. They’re fighting their own.” The principal of Huaqing Hunter University, who had been scolded by Chen Yuan earlier, finally found a chance to refute. He spoke through the air and laughed.

One of the most dramatic situations during the drawing ceremony happened to Zhejiang Hunter University.

“Sigh…”

Chen Yuan sighed and said to himself, “I wanted to see the two children enter the finals together, but it seems like I was too naive.”

In the lounge, the students were also disappointed. Most of them were not willing to see a civil war.

Chen Yuan clapped his hands and said, “Alright, children, don’t be too disappointed. This result isn’t good or bad for us. At least it can guarantee that our school will enter the top eight this year.”

Even so, most people still could not get their spirits up. Someone even said, “How good would it be if we meet in the finals or semi-finals? Why did it have to be the top 16?”

The drawing ceremony continued, and Lu Ziling and Wang Zining’s next opponents were decided one by one.

Wang Zining was going up against a genius from the hunter university of Hei Province, and it was almost certain that she would make it to the top eight.

Lu Ziling was up against Fan Peng of Chang’an Hunter University. After learning of this news, Lu Ziling rubbed her hands and was ready to start a massacre.

At that time, when Fan Peng pulled out the small ball with the letter E, he held it tightly in his hand and refused to let others see it. Several staff members pressed him to the ground and dug him out with great effort.

As for the other teams, they began to get to know their opponents in the arena.

“I didn’t expect that we would meet on the way to the top 16.” Zhou Qingfeng walked to Lu Benwei’s side and sighed.

Lu Benwei raised his head and glanced at Zhou Qingfeng. “Yup, I originally thought that I’d at least meet you in the top four.”

Suddenly, Zhou Qingfeng’s gaze became determined. He said, “Lu Benwei, I won’t show any mercy this time. I hope you’re the same.”

Lu Benwei nodded and replied, “I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

…

...

After that, the schedule of the tournament was announced. It would be held two days later.

The eight matches would last for two days and would be broadcast live.

“Knock knock.”

After a clear knock on the door, Chen Yuan’s voice was heard.

“Please come in.”

Lu Benwei pushed the door open and said, “Mr. Principal.”

“It’s Lu Benwei, what’s the matter?”

“Mr. Principal, it’s about the stigmata.” Lu Benwei got straight to the point.

Chen Yuan’s pupils shrank when he heard this.
