“Murica wins!”

As the referee made the announcement, the first match came to an end!

The winning bracket had four countries: China, Murica, England, and Sun Nation.

The losing bracket had four countries: h.e.l.las, Tintu, Stick Nation, and Deutschland.

Next, the winning teams would fight the other winning teams to determine the specific rankings of the top four. The losing teams would fight among themselves to determine the specific rankings of the bottom four.

After the battle ended, everyone did not leave the stage like they did yesterday.

Next was the second round of drawing lots. The winner and the loser would draw lots respectively.

Below the stage.

Tie Jun said solemnly, “There are still two more matches. If you win the first match, you’ll enter the finals and fight for the first place. If you lose the first match, you can only fight for the third or fourth place.

“Among the three countries, almost all of the partic.i.p.ants from England were crippled. They are currently the weakest. If we drew them, it would be an easy victory.

“Murica fought against Deutschland and retained most of their strength. There were even two mid-stage Innate Stage martial artists who did not partic.i.p.ate in the match.

“As for the Sun Nation, Zokawa is still in his peak condition. His Spirit-Devouring Const.i.tution is extremely terrifying and his fighting strength is remarkable.”

Sun Hongtao continued, “winning or losing is secondary. Once a country is matched with England, it’ll be able to maintain minimal losses. That’ll also be very beneficial for the fight for first place!”

“This will depend on luck,” Chen Xiaoxiao sighed softly.

There was no doubt that the country of England was an alluring choice. Whoever matched with it would not only be able to win, but also have a chance to fight for first place.

If China was matched with either Murica or the Sun Nation, the chances of winning would be quite high, but it would definitely wear them down as well, making it difficult for the next match.

“For now, we have the most reserved strength. Ye Lingchen is uninjured, Chen Xiaoxiao and Lin Xi have not been on the stage. Moreover, Jing Shan still has the strength to fight. The possibility of winning first place is the greatest,” said Tie Jun.

“This time, Ye Lingchen will go up and draw lots. Let’s see who our opponents will be,” Sun Hongtao said.

Besides China, Murica and the Sun Nation were also having their own discussions. Their eyes were mainly focused on China. China’s remaining strength was the strongest, and Ye Lingchen was giving them a lot of pressure.

Prior to that, none of them knew the strength of each nation, so it did not matter if they drew lots. However, now that they had an estimate, they began to worry about their opponents.

At that moment, Wu Tianbao suddenly announced loudly, “I think everyone knows the reason why you stayed. Without further ado, let’s invite the five judges on the stage to host the drawing of lots for everyone!”

Offstage, whether it was the contestants or the team leaders, their hearts raced. With the experience of drawing lots for the first time, everyone was familiar with the process.

The victorious and defeated countries were divided into two groups.

“We must get England’s team!” Jing Shan started to pray again.

As of then, England was definitely the weakest team of all with the lowest difficulty.

If China could draw England, and Murica fought the Sun Nation, then China would definitely be number one.

Not only Jing Shan was praying, but the people from other countries were also praying.

Ye Lingchen looked at the transparent box in front of him and casually walked up to it, calmly taking one.

The others also picked one.

The whole place quieted down instantly. Everyone was looking forward to the next match.

“England! England!”

Ye Lingchen, the Sun Nation, and Murica’s candidate started to mumble at the same time. Who would not want to win?

The faces of the English team turned dark. They stared at the three of them with unfriendly gazes, their hearts filled with resentment.

‘d.a.m.n it, that’s too much!’

While they were talking, Wu Tianbao spoke up and his voice reached everyone’s ears.

“The winning group will fight First!

“The first round, China against the Sun Nation!

“The second round, Murica against England!

“The third round, h.e.l.las against the Stick Nation!

“The fourth round, Tintu against Deutschland!

“Tomorrow morning, 8am sharp, the semi-finals will officially begin!”

“Our opponent is the Sun Nation.” Sun Hongtao frowned slightly.

“F*ck! Murica is cheating, aren’t they? They must be cheating!” Jing Shan’s expression immediately changed, huffing angrily, “First, they matched against the weakest Deutschland, and now they are matched against England. This is simply too F*cking smooth sailing! It’s so infuriating.”

“Shut up! The five peak King Stage martial artists would never cheat!” Sun Hongtao immediately berated.

Everyone felt uncomfortable, but they could only envy Murica’s heaven-defying luck.

“Since we’re going against the Sun Nation tomorrow, then let’s a.n.a.lyze the current situation.” Sun Hongtao pondered for a moment and continued, “Over at the Sun Nation, Zokawa is in peak condition and he has the Spirit-Devouring Const.i.tution. His battle power is very high. The other threat would be Aso!”

At the mention of Aso, Ye Lingchen and the others’ hearts sank. Only then did they recall the last battle against h.e.l.las. That guy’s body suddenly mutated and his strength skyrocketed. That was how he won.

Although he was injured, his injuries were superficial. Moreover, he could mutate, so his threat was not lower than that of Zokawa.

“F*ck!”

Jing Shan could not help but let out a curse.

“The Sun Nation is such a beast! They interfered in the compet.i.tion to keep Zokawa safe and sound. They even changed the human body structure. They’re insane! Murica is another freak with great luck!”

With that, the Sun Nation would be a big problem, not to mention that they still had to fight Murica after the victory. It would be very difficult for them to get first place!

“We must get first place. I’ll be the first to go on stage,” Ye Lingchen volunteered.

Only by taking first place would Miracle Island be allowed to run a Warrior’s inst.i.tute. Only then would he be able to turn Miracle Island into a Holy Land for martial arts and fight against the Void Realm. With a h.e.l.l’s Gate near Miracle Island, that was something that had to be done. Taking first place would be the key to getting the support of the Warrior’s Department.

“No!” Tie Jun and Sun Hongtao rejected him at the same time.

Sun Hongtao said, “As our trump card, you have to conserve your strength. There can’t be any accidents. It would be best if you let others exhaust your opponents first. You can go after that. Otherwise, if nothing goes wrong, we will be in big trouble when we fight against Murica later.”

China’s goal was to be number one. Murica’s strength was still very intact at the moment. Even if they fought against England, their strength would not be exhausted too much. If China suffered too great a loss in the battle against the Sun Nation, then it would be impossible to place first.

Ye Lingchen frowned slightly, “I’m not going up?”

“Apart from Zokawa and Aso, the other three people in the Sun Country have no battle power at all. There’s no need to consider. Moreover, it’s best if we can test out Aso’s mutated strength first,” Sun Hongtao said.

“I will go first,” Zheng Dali suddenly said. “I can still hold on for a while and try to exhaust my opponent as much as possible.”

“It’s useless!” Ye Lingchen shook his head. “Zokawa has the Spirit-Devouring Const.i.tution. It’s useless for you to exhaust him. You won’t be able to make any contribution. Instead, you’ll make your injuries worse!”
