Four Skills for All.
Chapter 90 The Competition Begins
Mo Xiu gave a harmless smile and said, "Sorry, you've mistaken me for someone else."
As he was about to leave, the stall owner grabbed Mo Xiu's leg from behind and said, "Brother Mo Xiu, I didn't mean to, please let me go, I'll delete Yang Qingzhuo right away."
"I've already said, I'm not Mo Xiu."
"Don't lie to me, I was blind and didn't recognize you."
Mo Xiu squatted down and said, "So what if I am Mo Xiu? Why are you so afraid of me?"
The stall owner swallowed hard, not daring to speak.
Mo Xiu said, "It's alright, tell me, I'm very approachable."
The stall owner still dared not speak, so Mo Xiu glared at him and shouted, "Speak!"
The stall owner was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy, saying, "I'll talk, I'll talk. Now the whole school is saying that you are a devil incarnate. Not only are you strong and ruthless, but you also have a powerful background. Even Liu Ziyang has to call you boss."
Mo Xiu pursed his lips, never expecting his reputation to be like this. Sigh!
He ignored the stall owner and turned to leave.
The stall owner sat on the ground for a long time before returning to his stall, thinking for a moment, then opened his notebook and wrote a sentence.
"The Great Demon King Mo Xiu, enraged by the female slave Yang Qingzhuo, has assaulted an innocent merchant!"
Mo Xiu walked around the scene and discovered that in addition to third-party vendors, there were also official gambling games.
Hosted by the student union, the games offer a variety of options, including betting on the champion, the semi-finalists, the quarter-finalists, and the round of 16. Players can bet on their favorites to make it to the round of 16, or even place bets on who will win the championship.
The most common betting method is still single-game betting, but since the competition hasn't started yet and the matchups are unknown, betting odds are still available for single-game wins and losses.
Currently, only the Round of 16 can be bet on. Mo Xiu originally wanted to bet on himself to enter the Round of 16, but was told that he could not bet on himself in the Round of 16 predictions, nor could he bet on his own match in a single game.
After a quick look, Mo Xiu found it uninteresting and returned to the preparation area.
At this moment, all seven members of the strongest gang were here. Liu Ziyang said, "Boss, the competition is about to start, why are you still out partying?"
"I'm going to scout out the enemy's situation!"
Hao Ren looked incredulous and said, "Chairman, forgive my bluntness, but you haven't done any reconnaissance?"
Although the venue remained the same, the setup was somewhat different from the intramural competition.
The intramural competition has only four venues, with four matches held simultaneously, and there are no referees. However, the club competition has ten venues held simultaneously, with one referee for each venue. The referees are members of the student council.
Mo Xiu also saw a familiar face in the referee team, Mu Mu. Unexpectedly, Mu Mu was a member of the student council.
After glancing at the time, Mo Xiu realized there was still some time before the match, so he went up to greet them.
"Mumu, I didn't realize you were a student council member and a referee. You'll have to side with me later."
Upon seeing that it was Mo Xiu, Mu Mu said magnanimously, "No problem, but with your strength, you probably won't need my help."
"Why are you acting as referee?"
"My club is Suzaku. As you know, the competition is fierce. I wasn't selected. Since I can't compete, I might as well be a referee and learn more. This will improve my understanding of various skills."
Mo Xiu exchanged pleasantries for a while before returning to his seat.
Mo Xiu had always admired Mu Mu; he had goals and aspirations!
"Hello everyone! The annual club war has begun!!!"
"This year's number of participants has set a record, with 527 people participating in the individual competition and 74 teams participating in the team competition. We heard from our seniors that only 15 people participated in the first club competition. We should all be proud that it has grown to its current scale."
After a long opening introduction, the host explained the rules. The rules for winning and losing were the same as those for the intra-school competition, but the rules for advancing were simpler and more straightforward: an elimination tournament.
From the qualifiers to the finals, the entire process was a one-on-one elimination tournament.
The student council, the organizers, didn't want to make the competition less competitive; the problem was that there were just too many participants, so many that they had to resort to an elimination tournament.
Unlike intra-school competitions, which involve multiple rounds of selection from class to department, the club competition only has 32 participants left for the school-wide finals.
The registration rules for the club competition are that any legitimate club can register. If the number of registrants is too small, the competition will not be very interesting. In addition, with a large number of clubs, there will naturally be too many participants.
More than 500 people participated in the competition. Even in the knockout stage, it would take five rounds to advance to the top 16.
The official competition then began, but due to the sheer number of participants, Mo Xiu didn't get a chance to play that day.
The results of the first day of the strongest club competition were as follows: Du Ya and Yang Qingzhuo advanced to the second round, Dong Fang and Hao Ren were eliminated, and He Lingyue and Liu Ziyang, like Mo Xiu, did not participate.
On the very first day, before the first round was even over, the strongest club had already eliminated two people, which was quite unexpected for Mo Xiu.
Moreover, Dong Fang and Hao Ren are both quite strong. According to Mo Xiu's estimation, as long as they have some luck, they should be able to reach the third or fourth round.
Hao Ren is doing well; he has now recognized his own role and is better at intelligence gathering than fighting.
Dong Fang couldn't accept it. It was normal to be eliminated in the school competition, but to be eliminated in the first round of the club competition would make the girl he was pursuing laugh at him. A grown man like him actually hugged Mo Xiu and cried.
Mo Xiu was also helpless and could only comfort her, "Alright, if your goddess really likes you, she must like you. If your grades aren't good, just keep trying. Girls like guys who are ambitious."
Mo Xiu himself didn't believe this, but there was no other way; the key was to stop Dong Fang from hugging him.
......
The second day of the club's individual one-on-one competition, August 16th.
Mo Xiu has finally made his appearance.
Since ten groups were competing simultaneously, the task of introducing the contestants was handed over to the referees to avoid confusion.
Mo Xiu glanced at the referee; it wasn't Mu Mu, but a tall boy.
The referee announced, "Both sides enter: Li Yongjie of the Giant Whale Gang, and Mo Xiu of the Strongest Gang!"
Li Yongjie smiled as soon as he stepped onto the stage.
"Hahaha, the strongest club? Is that the club's name? That's hilarious. How shameless can someone be to come up with a name like that?"
Mo Xiu said nonchalantly, "I chose the name, so what?"
"You? I have only one flaw: I can't stand people who show off. Today I'm going to teach you a lesson."
Mo Xiu asked in surprise, "You don't recognize me?"
In Mo Xiu’s opinion, putting aside his current reputation as a troublemaker, Li Yongjie should know him well, given his top-eight ranking in the school. Besides, they are both first-year students. Could it be that Li Yongjie is hiding away and ignoring the world?
Li Yongjie was stunned for a moment, then said, "I don't care who you are, I'm going to beat you to a pulp today."
The referee whispered a suggestion: "Moxiu..."
Because of the noise at the scene, Li Yongjie did not hear clearly.
"Huh? What did you say?"
Mo Xiu glanced at the referee, who lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly. This Li Yongjie was simply hopeless.
The referee coughed twice to cover his embarrassment.
"Ahem, the match...begins!!!"
Li Yongjie seemed to realize something was wrong and pressed the referee, "What did you just say?"
Mo Xiu had already arrived in front of Li Yongjie.
He said... "My name is Mo Xiu!!!"
"What happened to Mo Xiu? What?! Mo Xiu!!!"
