"How could there be such a coincidence? Is it a coincidence, or was it done on purpose? "
After seeing the results of the draw, Li Zexuan couldn't help but mutter to himself in his heart.
From the preliminary round to the knockout round, the B Battalion had always drawn the E Battalion. From the perspective of probability, the probability of this happening was extremely low, but it still happened. In addition to that, Yuan Dacheng from the B Battalion had "accidentally" injured Lu Ming during the competition. This made Li Zexuan suspect that Qiu Xinggong was secretly plotting against the E Battalion!
It wasn't that he was measuring the stature of a gentleman with his own yardstick, but the fact that Lu Ming was accidentally injured by Yuan Dacheng today was a little out of the ordinary. Logically speaking, in a normal competition in the military, no one would use every move to kill their opponent. Even if there was a deep grudge between them, they wouldn't use the competition to get rid of their opponents, because that would be too obvious. After the event, not only would they be severely punished, if they were executed or expelled from the military camp, it would also bring shame to their ancestors, and they wouldn't be able to raise their heads for the rest of their lives!
Yuan Dacheng and Lu Ming didn't have any grudges, but he used the competition as an opportunity to secretly kill Lu Ming. In addition to Qiu Xinggong's abnormal behavior earlier, Li Zexuan was almost certain that Yuan Dacheng must have been instructed by Qiu Xinggong to kill Lu Ming!
It was also fortunate that he had arrived at the B Battalion's competition grounds in time, or else the other members of the E Battalion after Lu Ming would have been seriously injured by the B Battalion!
Of course, these were all conjectures that Li Zexuan made based on the actual situation. He didn't have any concrete evidence, or else he would have directly reported Qiu Xinggong!
Other than that, the most crucial point, and the one that Li Zexuan couldn't understand the most, was that if Qiu Xinggong really intended to use the combat competition to make things difficult for the E Battalion, then why was he so sure that the B Battalion would definitely be able to draw the E Battalion as their opponent during the drawing of lots? One had to know that drawing lots was a completely uncontrollable and random event. Could it be that Qiu Xinggong was able to control the results of the drawing of lots?
Thinking up to this point, Li Zexuan looked suspiciously at Qiu Xinggong, who was standing at the side. The latter's gloomy face didn't reveal anything, but Li Zexuan clearly caught a flash of pride in the corner of Qiu Xinggong's eyes when he heard that Team 1 of the Second Battalion would be going up against Team 1 of the Fifth Battalion in the elimination round. His heart skipped a beat, and he secretly wondered if Qiu Xinggong had really tampered with the drawing of lots.
But how was that possible?
The entire lot drawing process had been carried out under his and Duan Zhixuan's eyes. How could any of the Second Battalion's little tricks escape his and Qiu Xinggong's eyes?
Could it be that there was a problem with the name tag?
Thinking up to this point, Li Zexuan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He subconsciously turned his gaze towards the pot that contained the bamboo lots. He secretly thought that if Qiu Xinggong had tampered with the E Battalion's bamboo lots beforehand, then it wouldn't be strange for the B Battalion to be able to draw the E Battalion as their opponent every time!
Just as Li Zexuan was about to step forward to check the bamboo lots, he heard Duan Zhixuan beside him say, "Adjunct Li, since the elimination round has already been decided, then let's start as soon as possible! Let's try to finish the combat competition before noon, so that it doesn't affect the soldiers' afternoon training! "
"… Yes!"
Li Zexuan came back to his senses and replied subconsciously.
He knew that now wasn't the time to investigate if Qiu Xinggong had tampered with the bamboo lots. The most important thing now was to hurry up and start the elimination round.
