Liang Kun, who was originally in a terrible mood, couldn't help but laugh when he heard the laughter. But he still said seriously, "I'm serious."
Liu also said seriously, "Friend, I'm serious too!"
The crowd laughed even more merrily.
Those reporters who wanted to criticize the Apollo team for being too relaxed during the competition were too embarrassed to rub salt into their wounds.
Actually, as Liang Kun said, although they had lost the competition, it wasn't the end of the world.
They were still young and had time to improve themselves. This was just high school. After a year of dormancy, they could still shine on the university campus.
Liang Kun's situation was resolved after a few light-hearted exchanges. He shook hands with Liu Zhiyuan in a friendly manner, bowed to the crowd, and left calmly.
Then, all the firepower was focused on Liu.
"Captain Liu, can you tell us if your team's problems have been solved perfectly?"
"Captain Liu, I want to know, did you arrange the tactics for this match in advance?"
"Captain Liu …"
"Captain Liu, please answer my question first …"
Elder Liu was really popular now. It felt like he had become famous. This group of reporters seemed to really like to interview him.
Even if some of the questions were tricky, he was never annoyed.
He was so calm that he didn't seem like an 18 or 19-year-old high school student.
"Don't be anxious, everyone. Since I'm here, I definitely won't run away. So if you have any questions, just ask them one by one, okay? I'll try my best to answer all your questions … "Liu Zhiyuan said with a smile.
"Then, Captain Liu, can you talk about the fight first?" someone asked.
"Yes, is there a problem with your team?"
Liu Zhiyuan laughed bitterly in his heart. These people's focus is always on these things that have nothing to do with the competition.
But he could understand that they had to be sponsored partnerships.
"First of all …" He looked at the people below. "Our team has never had any problems! As for why we fought, the reason is very simple. We are all young people. Isn't it normal for young people to be hot-blooded and impulsive? "
"But Captain Liu, as far as I know, you guys have always been very united and there has never been a fight. May I know if this has anything to do with you being specially recruited by The First Academy?" a reporter asked.
Among the group of reporters, there was an inconspicuous male reporter. He was skinny and wore a cap with the brim of the cap pressed very low. At this moment, he was mixed in the crowd, staring intently at Liu's eyes through the gaps in the wall.
He was an expert in micro-expressions!
He was best at observing people's expressions to see if they were lying.
Although Liu Zhiyuan appeared to be very calm, he was still a young man. Therefore, if he was lying, he believed that he would be able to tell at a glance.
Liu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "How do I say this? If I say I don't have it, I'm afraid you guys won't believe me … Alright, although this question has nothing to do with this match, I think if I don't answer, you guys will definitely not let me go."
"Haha, it's good that you know!"
"Leader Liu is such a straightforward person!"
"Hurry up and answer."
The group of reporters below were all laughing.
Liu Zhiyuan stopped smiling and said seriously, "Our team has always been very united. Even now, it is still the same. We support and help each other and trust each other. But indeed, because I wanted to go to university earlier, there were some differences … because we all hope to enter the same school as a whole and are unwilling to be separated. "
The people below also gradually became serious. The skinny male reporter observed carefully. He would not let go of even the slightest bit of expression.
Liu Zhiyuan continued, "But The First Academy … everyone knows that it is one of the top schools in the Empire. I don't want to miss this opportunity."
Many people below nodded. If they were in his shoes, they probably wouldn't let it go either, right?
"Therefore, that day, there was some awkwardness between me and Xiao Bai. We are all adults, so after drinking a few glasses of wine that day, everyone was a little impulsive. Young people, if there is anything unhappy, they have to vent it on the spot. Therefore, the two of us had a fight. But actually, nothing happened. After that, we closed off the training because we didn't want to be disturbed by the outside world. "
"So you have reconciled, right?" A reporter asked.
"Yes, we have reconciled! Will you really hate your family if you quarrel with them? Unless it is something special, surely not? "Liu Zhiyuan said with a smile.
The skinny male reporter immediately made a judgment in his heart when he saw Liu Zhiyuan blink his eyes when he answered.
Lies!
He is lying!
Between them, there is no reconciliation!
The cracks are still there!
This guy is so young, but he is really cunning.
He is indeed a very mature young man. He is as steady as a dog and knows what he wants.
He knows that at this stage, he can't really fall out with his teammates no matter what!
Therefore, he must maintain a harmonious appearance on the surface.
Once he enters The First Academy and is away from his teammates, he will quickly forget about them.
This kind of person is the most heartless!
This kind of person is the easiest to be bought over by benefits!
That was great!
This is really great!
My mission is completed.
The male reporter pressed down on the brim of his hat, turned around quietly and walked out.
There were at least thirty to forty reporters here. No one would care if one of them left.
But the moment the male reporter turned around, Liu Zhiyuan's gaze fell on him.
Idiot!
I am a level nine spiritual warrior!
How dare you hide in the crowd and look at me without any scruples?
Who gave you the confidence to think that I can't find you?
Oh, sorry, you still don't know that I am level nine.
But it was a pity that this confident micro-expression expert was completely unaware of all these.
If he saw Liu Zhiyuan's expression at that moment, he would definitely overturn all his previous judgments.
"Captain Liu, about the tactics for this match …"
Liu Zhiyuan smiled and continued to answer.
In the hotel suite.
After Bai Muye had Da Mei inspect the place, he instructed Da Mei to use the surveillance cameras outside to keep an eye on the place. If someone suddenly appeared at the door, she had to inform him immediately.
After the incident where Zhao Lu sent someone to spy on him, Shirō Makino's awareness of such things had indeed increased a lot.
"Are there no more questions?" Liu glanced at Shirō Makino and signaled with his eyes.
Shirō Makino nodded. "No more questions."
"Heh, as expected, someone was spying on me in the dark. He was probably trying to determine if I had really fallen out with you guys. Therefore, at the crucial moment, I misled him. He believed that once I entered The First Academy, someone would come into contact with me very quickly. "
Liu Zhiyuan smiled as he spoke.
Ji Chae Yi looked at him and said, "Be careful."
"Yes, no matter what, your personal safety is the priority. No matter what those people want you to do, don't inform me directly." Shirō Makino said.
"That won't do! If someone wants to harm you, how can I not do anything? " Liu Zhiyuan glanced at Shirō Makino. "I'll say it again, Xiao Bai, you don't have to tell me who your enemy is. I will naturally know when the time comes. As long as they believe that I am on good terms with you guys, sooner or later, they will want me to do something. When that time comes … "
"Liu, listen to me. Even if that happens, you don't have to inform me directly." Shirō Makino said, "How about this, if something like that really happens, you can give Chae Yi a call. Just say that I miss you …"
Ji Chae Yi glared at Shirō Makino and blushed.
Si Yin said, "If that's the case, won't Captain be in deep trouble?"
Eh?
Everyone looked at Si Yin.
Si Yin said, "If I can only say that I miss you when something happens, then … I can't say it normally?"
Ji Chae Yi was stunned. Si Xiaoyin, are you a demon? How did you think of this?
Shan Gu smiled. "Just say that I love you normally."
"You're asking for a beating!" Ji Chae Yi glared at Shan Gu. She raised her hand and was about to hit him, but inwardly, she was happy.
Shan Gu chuckled and made a defensive posture.
Liu Zhiyuan, on the other hand, seemed to be deep in thought. "That sounds good."
"Not bad, my ass!" Ji Caiyi said angrily.
Liu Zhiyuan turned to look at Shirō Makino. "But if that's the case … how would you know what it is?"
Shirō Makino said, "It doesn't matter. Just leave the information in your mailbox. I'll go get it myself."
"Won't leave any traces?" Liu Zhiyuan looked at Shirō Makino. Although he knew that Xiao Bai was good at this, he still had to be careful.
"It's much safer than you calling me directly." Shirō Makino said. "And don't worry. After I look at it, the information in your mailbox will disappear."
"Alright, that's settled! If anything happens in the future, I'll contact you using this method. "Liu Zhiyuan nodded.
Then, Liu Zhiyuan began to tell everyone about the upcoming competition.
"We've now obtained the top nine spots. The other eight teams have also come out."
As Liu Zhiyuan spoke, he waved his hand and a screen appeared. On it, there were a total of nine teams. From top to bottom, they were randomly arranged into nine rows.
Each row had four to six high-definition photos.
"We'll skip it ourselves." Liu waved his hand and deleted his team from the screen. There were eight teams left.
Liu looked at everyone. "This is a team from Wuyue City … called Frost Team."
Wuyue City?
Shirō Makino suddenly thought of the mysterious organization's Elder Du Yu.
She was the one who had a grudge against Zhao Lu.
This time, he had gone all out, gifting King Qi fifteen spiritual pearls!
In the end, all of them had gone to Xiao Bai.
Those Soul Beads were still lying quietly in Xiao Bai's spatial ring.
Shan Gu said, "Why do all the teams have names? Should we come up with a name too? "
"I agree." Ji Chae Yi nodded.
"Agree plus one." Si Yin said.
"What about the captain?" Shan Gu looked at Liu Zhiyuan.
Liu Zhiyuan looked at Shirō Makino. "You are going to be the captain soon. You have the final say."
Ji Chae Yi said, "How about … we call ourselves Xiao Bai Team. I think it sounds good."
Shirō Makino shook his head. "No, I'm not the only one in charge of the team. Let's think of a name ourselves."
Shan Gu said, "Unparalleled Domineering?"
Ji Chae Yi glared at him. "Unparalleled Domineering!"
Shan Gu said, "That's fine too!"
"Fine my ass!" Ji Chae Yi looked at Liu Zhiyuan. "Since the first captain is leaving, why don't you think of a name?"
Shirō Makino nodded. "That's right. A name given by the first captain will be more meaningful."
Ji Chae Yi smiled. "Who knows, it might even make people think that you are pretending to be our teammate …"
Everyone was improving quickly and had learned to draw inferences about other cases.
Liu Zhiyuan shook his head helplessly and said, "Let me think … I hope that our team can be like the Sacred Totem Dragon of the Zulong Empire and truly soar. We are all just young dragons now, still in the growth and dormancy stage. But one day, we will be dragons soaring in the sky! Especially Xiao Bai, he will definitely become a powerful Talisman Artist in the future. At that time, you will also be the absolute core and true leader of the entire team. So, why don't we call ourselves Fu Dragon Team? "
"Fu Dragon Team? Talisman Dragon … very good, I think it's fine! "Shan Gu said.
Ji Chae Yi thought about it and nodded. "Yes, yes, I think it's fine too."
"What do you think, Si Yin?" Liu Zhiyuan did not forget about Si Xiaoyin this time.
Si Yin was very satisfied with the captain's attention and nodded. "Yes, very good. This name is very appropriate!"
"Alright, four to one. It's decided. From today onwards, we will be called Fu Dragon Team!" Liu did not ask for Xiao Bai's opinion because he was afraid that he would reject it.
As expected, Shirō Makino smiled bitterly. "Isn't this name a little too big?"
"Big?" Liu Zhiyuan looked at him.
Shirō Makino thought about it. "Not big."
F * ck!
Everyone could not help but look at Shirō Makino with disdain.
"Alright, no more joking. It's decided. Let's continue to introduce the other teams."
Frost Team from the first-tier Five Mountain City, Berserk Sword Team from the second-tier Black Creek City, Divine Dragon Team from the second-tier Green River City …
When introducing the Divine Dragon Team, Shan Gu exclaimed, "Look at their name, how domineering and mighty!"
Liu said, "This is a team of all spiritual warriors, just like Wan Xiong's team last year! We will introduce them in detail later. "
Black and White Chess Team from the first-tier Chess City, Golden House Team from the first-tier Book City, Ink Team from the first-tier Painting City …
Qin, Chess, Calligraphy, and Painting were the names of the four first-tier Main Cities. Among them, Qin City was the administrative center of the Flying Immortal Planet, Guqin City.
Dugu Nine Swords Team from the second-tier Huashan City, Forest Team from the second-tier Giant Tree City.
After looking at the information of these teams, Liu looked at everyone and asked, "Did you notice any problems?"
"It seems that we are the only team from a third-tier Main City," Shan Gu said.
"Yes, we are the only team from a third-tier Main City." Liu Zhiyuan said, "So, we are the only seedlings. And because we won against the Sun God Team from Baiyue No. 4 High School, many people are paying attention to us. In addition, in the post-match press conference, the captain of the Sun God Team, Liang Kun, fiercely healed us. Now, there are too many people watching us. For us, this is not a bad thing, but the pressure … will come with it. "
"Under normal circumstances, this kind of result in the top nine of the division division is already very impressive, but this is not our real goal."
Shirō Makino smiled and said, "Our small goal for now is to win a division division first."
"Brother Bai is mighty!" Shan Gu grinned.
Liu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "We have to win the championship, but we have to eat one bite at a time. We still have eight more matches to fight. No matter who our opponents are, we have to try our best to win! Get that point! "
Shan Gu said, "Yes, as long as we defeat all eight opponents, we will be the division division champions!"
Liu Zhiyuan nodded, then looked at Shirō Makino and said, "So, if we really can't do it, we will go all out. At this time, there is no need to hide anything."
Shirō Makino nodded and said, "Don't worry, I understand."
Liu Zhiyuan looked at everyone and said, "Tomorrow, I will draw lots for the matchups and venue. After this, we will have a few days of rest. Although it seems like we have plenty of time, in fact, it is very tight. Because our next opponents are not one team, but eight teams! So, we must make good use of these few days to study these opponents thoroughly. Once the round-robin tournament starts, we will not have time to study them. One match a day! It is a test for everyone. "
"Why is it that during the round-robin tournament, the matches are so intense?" Ji Chae Yi asked curiously.
Liu Zhiyuan said, "It should be a test, right? It is a comprehensive test of stamina, energy, and mentality. "
Shan Gu said, "Then it is better to have two matches a day …"
Liu Zhiyuan glared at him and said, "You are the one who is talking nonsense. For a match of this level, one match a day is already a terrifying devil's schedule!"
As he said that, he looked at everyone and said, "This time, the system will draw lots automatically. So, we will get the order of the matches against the next eight opponents in one go. The first match will be on the 29th, then from the 30th to the 6th of May, one match a day … "
As he said that, Liu Zhiyuan looked at Shirō Makino and said with a smile, "The 6th of May is our last match, and that day …"
Si Yin said, "It is Brother Bai's birthday!"
Ji Chae Yi couldn't help but look at Si Yin. "Si Xiaoyin, you remember your Brother Bai's birthday very clearly!"
Shan Gu also laughed and said, "Yes, yes, you remember it so clearly. Do you know my birthday?"
Si Yin looked at the two and said, "Brother Shan Gu's birthday is December 12th, Sister Chae Yi's birthday is August 7th, and Captain's birthday is November 1st … any questions?"
Shan Gu said, "You win."
Ji Chae Yi sighed and said, "Si Xiaoyin is getting more and more cunning. Sigh, the little girl is growing up!"
After that, the group continued to study all kinds of information about their opponents in the room.
When it was time for dinner, Sun Yuefeng brought a few school leaders to treat everyone to a big meal.
Two consecutive years of outstanding results made them all smile as if it was the New Year.
Early the next morning, Liu Zhiyuan went to draw lots with two school leaders from No.1 Middle School.
At this time, all the major media in Bai Yue City had focused their attention on the nine outstanding teams.
As the biggest hope of Bai Yue City, Bai Yue No. 4 High School's Apollo Team had been defeated, which made people feel very regretful.
In fact, the most regretful ones were Liang Kun and the others!
With such powerful strength, it was a pity that they had encountered Xiao Bai and the others.
So sometimes, just having strength was not enough. A little bit of luck was also needed.
It was also because Xiao Bai and the others had eliminated Apollo Team that they had received quite a lot of attention.
The whole drawing process was broadcast live.
So Xiao Bai and the others were in the hotel and knew the next teams immediately.
The terrain of the eight matches was also shown.
The first match was against Golden House, and the terrain was an ancient ruin.
The second match was against Ink, and the terrain was a dark forest.
The third match was against Forest, and the terrain was an island.
The fourth match was against Frost, and the terrain was a swamp.
The fifth match was against Berserker, and the terrain was a city ruin.
The sixth match was against Dugu Nine Swords, and the terrain was a snowy mountain.
The seventh match was against Divine Dragon, and the terrain was an ice river.
The eighth match was against Black and White, and the terrain was a dimensional space.
