The system of the Nine Families Grand Competition was actually very simple. It was just to draw lots. The number of people who were qualified to participate in the competition would be put together. After that, they would draw lots. Whoever was drawn would be the winner.
Therefore, for those families with bad luck, this method was very likely to draw their own people.
If they were to encounter such a situation, they could only blame it on their bad luck. After all, drawing lots was an equal opportunity for all the participants.
In fact, the number of people who could participate in the Nine Families Grand Competition wasn't a lot. Each family would only have about four to five people. The total number of disciples from the nine families would be about forty to fifty people.
Therefore, the probability of one of them drawing their own people was about one in ten. The probability wasn't very high.
However, although the probability wasn't high, in the past competitions, this kind of situation had happened quite often. Many times, there would even be a situation where the strongest disciples from the same family would fight against each other.
Regarding such a situation, it could be said that the family was most unwilling to see it. However, it was also the situation that the other families wanted to see the most.
Because such a situation would inevitably help the other families to lose a powerful opponent. However, if any of the families were to encounter such a situation, they would usually not start a fight. They would only let the weaker side take the initiative to admit defeat.
After all, when such a situation occurred, it meant that one of them would definitely be eliminated. If they were to continue fighting, it would only cause both sides to be injured. This would be very disadvantageous to the next match.
Therefore, in order to prevent the winner from smoothly advancing to the next match, and at the same time, not letting the enemy take advantage of the situation, the weaker side taking the initiative to admit defeat was the best method.
Because those who participated in the Nine Families Grand Competition were basically people from the nine great families. Very few outsiders would participate. People like Cheng Yu were actually very rare.
Therefore, they didn't have many procedures because this competition was for the upcoming Death Domain. It wasn't a show for the audience. Their only audience was the disciples from the nine great families.
There weren't any complicated procedures. As the host of the competition, Nangong Chengye simply gave a few words of introduction. After that, all the people who were qualified to participate in the competition started to draw lots.
It could be said that in the entire process of the competition, drawing lots was the most nerve-wracking part because no one wanted to draw their own people.
They had come here to make a name for themselves. If they drew one of their own, they might not even have the chance to make a move and would be directly eliminated. That would be too much of a pity and too shameful.
"Junior Brother Yu, do you think Brother Hongyuan can get into the top three in today's competition?" Outside the arena, Xinhai and the others sat together as they looked at the people who were drawing lots.
"I don't know much about the people from the Nine Great Clans. How would I know if he can enter the top three? Although all the participants are here, a lot of strength is not something that can be seen on the surface. Therefore, I can only wait and see Cheng Yu shook his head and said.
There were a total of four arenas in the arena, arranged according to the four directions of north, south, east, and west. Now, all the contestants were drawing lots, so the atmosphere was a little tense.
This was especially true for those aristocratic families. They were praying in their hearts that they wouldn't draw their strongest opponents, let alone their own people.
There were a total of five people from the Chen Clan participating in the competition this time. In addition to the Chen brothers and Chen Qiuhan, there were two other people called Chen Honghai and Chen Dong.
The former was Chen Hongyuan's cousin and was in the early stage of the Great Ascension Stage.
The latter didn't seem to be very eye-catching in the Chen Clan before. Many of the Chen Clan didn't even know that there was such a person. However, he appeared at this time and his strength wasn't weak. He was actually in the middle stage of the Great Ascension Stage. This made many Chen Clan disciples very surprised.
It could be said that this Chen Dong was a dark horse of the Chen Clan. However, many people didn't have much hope for him.
One must know that this was a place where geniuses gathered. Reaching the middle stage of the Great Ascension Stage at the age of 500 could be said to be a genius level figure. But here, a genius in the middle stage of the Great Ascension Stage was really not considered a top genius.
At least there were two experts in the late stage of the Great Ascension Stage in the Chen Clan, and that was the Chen brothers. As for Chen Qiuhan, he was also in the middle stage of the Great Ascension Stage.
In fact, it wouldn't be very surprising for him to reach the middle stage of the Great Ascension Stage, but many Chen Clan disciples were extremely envious of Chen Qiuhan.
Because Chen Qiuhan's father was the Great Elder of the Chen Clan, their strength in the Chen Clan was still very strong. Everyone knew that Chen Qiuhan was only in the early stage of the Great Ascension Stage two months ago, but now he was already in the middle stage of the Great Ascension Stage.
No one believed that Chen Qiuhan broke through to the middle stage of the Great Ascension Stage by himself, because although his talent was high, it was impossible to be so heaven defying. Therefore, everyone knew that he had his current achievements entirely because he had a good father, which allowed him to break through to the middle stage of the Great Ascension Stage in such a short time.
However, other than envy, jealousy, and hatred, what else could they do?
Even the Chen Clan's eldest young master and second young master were not the same, because they both broke through a realm in the past two months. Before this, both of them had just broken through once.
In such a situation, they could only blame themselves for not having a good father who couldn't directly help them break through like them.
Otherwise, they might also be called geniuses by others and appear on the stage of the Nine Clan Grand Competition. Of course, this could only be regarded as their own best dream, because in this life, they wouldn't have such an opportunity.
"Among so many families, the one I dislike the most is the Situ Family. I heard that the Situ Family ranked second in the Nine Clan Grand Competition, second only to the Ji Family.
I really hope that the Situ Family can draw their two most powerful people together in the first round, then it will be fun! "Xinhai said with a smile.
"This kind of probability is too small, but it's not impossible to appear," Xinluo said.
"Actually, the Ji Family's strength is so strong, if the Situ Family's most powerful person draws the Ji Family's strongest person in the first round, then it will be even more worth watching!" Xinhe said with a smile.
"Haha, if that's the case, I reckon that the Situ Family's Patriarch will probably be so angry that he will vomit blood," Xinhai said with a laugh.
"You can't say it like that. Although the Ji Family was ranked first in the previous competition, and the Situ Family was behind, this kind of thing can't be determined so easily. No one can be sure that the Situ Family's strength will be weaker than the Ji Family this time, so if such a situation really happens, the Ji Family might not necessarily win, "Cheng Yu constantly looked at the various geniuses of the nine great families and said casually.
