July 31st.
The 32-to-16 knockout round of the Bird City Graduation Cup has come to an end.
The top 16 teams are freshly announced.
As the competition develops to this stage, those who can survive must be the best players of this competition.
The official was also good at creating momentum. That evening, they specially held a guessing and voting channel online to encourage everyone to actively participate in the voting. Then, one hundred lucky users would be drawn from all the users who guessed the champion.
These 100 people will win a cash prize of 1,000 yuan.
The rewards are not much, but this activity has attracted many people to compete.
The two favorites to win the championship are Jiang Xiao and Yang Xu.
Both of them received more than 50,000 votes, with a small gap between them, but they crushed the contestants behind them.
The third-place contestant, who also came from Pengyue High School, received only a few thousand votes.
There are even fewer people who are not from Bird City. After all, the main participants in this vote are still the locals of Bird City.
The authorities also took good care of their own people and specially marked a red circle for the local contestants in Bird City so that Bird City netizens who wanted to vote would recognize them.
Since this vote is more of an entertainment purpose, there is nothing wrong with doing this and it won't have any impact.
As for Lin You.
He also has supporters, with a total of 1,479 votes, which is quite good among non-Bird City candidates and ranks second.
As for the first place, the number of votes was as high as 2,800.
But when Lin You took a look at the contestant's photo, he understood everything.
There is a girl in the photo. She doesn't have any extra makeup on and it's such a rough photo, but she looks quite beautiful.
The type that is truly stunning at first sight, and the more you look at it, the more stunning it becomes.
To put it more simply, it's Lin You in women's clothing!
Of course, the appearance is completely different.
etc……
Lin You suddenly realized.
So the reason why he got so many votes was not because of his ability, but because of his looks?
For a moment, he didn't know whether to be happy or sad, and his mood was quite complicated.
Lin You didn't think much about it, turned off the lights and went to sleep. He had to continue practicing hard in the next week.
…
In just one week, with the official deliberate hype, the discussion about the Bird City Graduation Cup reached its peak, and more and more people participated in the guessing and voting activities.
In the first two days, 90% of the people who participated in the voting were local people from Bird City, and the votes of the major Bird City candidates rose sharply.
But later, as the influence of the event spread, those contestants who were not from Bird City also received voting support from netizens in their own cities. Although the support was definitely not as strong as that in Bird City, the number of votes was still not small.
Among these people, the top two are Qi Yuxuan and Lin You.
The former received 12,824 votes, while the latter received 8,944 votes.
The most interesting thing is that some netizens discovered that the two are from Jiangcheng, and they are responsible for the appearance of the male and female contestants on the list respectively.
"Ah, she's a Jiangcheng contestant?"
On the eve of the competition, Lin You, who had just walked out of the room, learned the news from Du Xiaofei, who had invited him to have dinner together.
He has not been paying attention to what is happening online these days. He has been immersed in magic training every day. These days, his magic power has increased by another point, reaching 167 points.
Although it is a drop in the bucket, it is still quite good to be able to make one step further before the official competition.
"Don't you know?"
Du Xiaofei said with some regret: "I thought you knew her. You and her are both from Jiangcheng, and both are very capable. Logically, you should be more familiar with each other. Such a beautiful girl should be very popular."
Lin You thought for a moment and said, "She's probably a student from one of those professional dueling high schools in Jiangcheng."
"Uh, yes."
Du Xiaofei suddenly realized something, scratched his head and said awkwardly, "I almost forgot, you're not a student at a vocational high school, but this is too abnormal. You're obviously not, yet you're still so strong. Even if you're the strongest student in the school, this shouldn't be the case."
It’s really not an easy task for any of the players who can make it to the top 16.
Du Xiaofei was, after all, a student of Bird City Vocational High School, yet he failed on the way to being selected from the 32nd to the 16th place.
Lin You just smiled and said nothing. He really wanted to say that in terms of dueling results, he was only ranked third in the dueling class of Jianghua High School.
Although that was in the past, even now, Lin You cannot guarantee that he can defeat Deng Yuxin in the duel arena.
Of course, it is unlikely that Deng Yuxin can defeat him.
Regarding the competition, the two chatted as they walked, and after a while, they took the elevator to the buffet restaurant on the second floor.
Of course, dinner is still free here.
But as soon as they entered the restaurant, they suddenly found that the atmosphere was not right.
Many of the contestants who were dining had their eyes focused on the beverage machine.
There, two players seemed to be facing off.
"It seems like something happened."
Du Xiaofei was slightly stunned, but then quickly said, "Come on, Lin You, let's go join in the fun."
Lin You didn't say anything and just followed slowly. When some contestants noticed his arrival, they looked at him with strange expressions.
He must have recognized Lin You.
Immediately afterwards, he consciously made way for a gap, as if to allow him to see the situation next to the beverage machine more clearly.
This action surprised Lin You. Was this a sign of respect for the top 16 contestants?
This thought only lasted for a moment, and when he saw the situation clearly, he roughly understood the reason.
At this moment, the two people who created the atmosphere of confrontation were both girls.
The one on the left is tall and strong.
Yes, such adjectives are perfectly suitable for her.
She must be over 1.8 meters tall, and with her brown skin, she exudes a strong and oppressive feeling.
The one confronting her was a girl with an extremely delicate face without any makeup. Her fair face was both cold and cute. Facing such a strong woman, there was no sign of compromise in her eyes.
Seeing this girl, Lin You was slightly stunned. Isn't this...
Qi Yuxuan?
Lin You was a little surprised. He didn't expect to see her here.
Was this an argument with someone?
Glancing over, Lin You suddenly noticed that behind Qi Yuxuan, there was a girl with a worried look on her face. The girl had a lot of drinks on her body and her clothes were slightly wet.
"Apologize to her."
Qi Yuxuan's voice was pleasant to the ear, but this pleasant voice now carried an aggressive aura.
The strong girl said calmly, "If you want me to apologize, defeat me head-on in the duel. I don't have time to play house with childish kids."
"good."
Qi Yuxuan responded coldly, then added, "If we meet in a competition, I will win fairly. Remember what you said now."
After saying that, she turned around again, her previous aggressiveness completely gone. She softly comforted the girl whose clothes were wet, then took her hand and said, "Come on, I'll take you to change clothes."
The girl nodded slightly with gratitude on her face, then obediently followed Qi Yuxuan to the door.
Soon, Qi Yuxuan, holding the girl's hand, passed by Lin You who was approaching.
The moment he walked past, Lin You suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Where have I seen this girl before?
Shaking his head and without thinking much, he found a place to sit down and started having dinner with Du Xiaofei.
After dinner, I went straight back to my room to rest.
Tomorrow's game will not be easy. No matter who we meet, they will not be easy to deal with.
Of course, he himself is someone who is not easy to mess with!
…
The next day.
Nine o'clock in the morning, Lin You's room.
Boom boom boom.
There was a hurried knock on the door outside on time.
No, to be precise, it was the sound of hammering on the door.
Lin You walked over.
The door is open.
Du Xiaofei immediately asked curiously, "Lin You, are the match results out? Who are we going to play against this time?"
Lin You said nothing and raised his cell phone.
Du Xiaofei immediately moved closer to take a look.
After seeing the matching results displayed above, he let out an exaggerated scream.
“Wow!”
"Don't make a fuss."
Lin You smoothed his hair and fixed his hairstyle.
"How can I not be so surprised? This is too 'my god'!"
Du Xiaofei was unable to calm down.
After a while, the two of them left the hotel. Liu Jun was already waiting at the door. When he saw Lin You, he asked anxiously, "How is it, Lin You? Who are you fighting with today?"
"Hit this brother."
Lin You raised his phone and showed the screen to Liu Jun.
The moment I saw the screen——
“Wow!”
Liu Jun opened his eyes wide, looking dumbfounded.
Lin You was somewhat speechless and said, "I'm talking to you two, is it really that serious? You're acting like you're being asked to duel with him?"
"Of course!"
Liu Jun and Du Xiaofei said almost in unison.
"This is Yang Xu, the second person in the post. I met him in the round of 16. I'm so unlucky." Liu Jun was overwhelmed with grief.
"Yeah, it's so unlucky!" Du Xiaofei sighed.
Lin You suddenly looked at the little fat boy and just stared at him without saying a word.
Du Xiaofei's scalp tingled, and he said awkwardly, "What's wrong, Lin You? Looking at me like that is scary."
Lin You said unhappily, "It's okay if Niu's son acts like that, but you're a local of Bird City after all. Are you really expecting me to win the championship in your hometown?"
"How can that be possible?"
Du Xiaofei waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Lin You, you misunderstood. Of course I have a sense of belonging to the city, but that doesn't stop me from wanting you to go further. It's really a pity that you ran into Yang Xu after all the hard work you put into getting here."
"Do you all think I will lose?"
After a moment of silence, Lin You suddenly asked.
Du Xiaofei fell silent. Lin You turned his gaze to Liu Jun. He rolled his eyes again and again, and suddenly laughed dryly: "Lin You, let's go quickly, before we're too late."
After saying that, he pushed Lin You forward.
When he walked to the front, he suddenly looked at Du Xiaofei beside him, and they nodded quickly in tacit understanding.
Lin You!
It would be fine if you were matched with someone else, but this time you ran into one of the twin stars who are the favorites to win the championship. Don’t you have an idea of what the result will be?
It’s not that we don’t want to blow it, it’s just that the cow is too big and we can’t blow it!
