Chapter 37 Why is it said to be a good sign?There will be people setting the handicap for any competitive event. Although the betting outlet is shady and ordinary people cannot find it at all, the odds of winning for each school are blatantly displayed. This is also normal. After all, which school has the highest probability of winning the championship is also part of the discussion of the competition. They are only responsible for listing the data. If they are used to do bad things, they should be scolded as gamblers. As for the odds, the highest odds are naturally given to Wolong Academy, which has won two consecutive national championships, with a probability of winning as high as . The second highest is Beiming Primary School, with a winning probability of . Those ranked behind are basically in the single digits, and after the 30th place there is not even one percent. After reading all the way, Chu Yi found that the ranking of Donghai No. 1 Primary School was not as bad as he imagined. Although it was only , it was still ranked 51st, which was considered a mid-level level. This ranking is also quite logical. After all, Donghai No. 1 Primary School was among the top 32 last year, and a large number of main players graduated this year, so a decline in the ranking is inevitable. It's a pity that he is too young to place a bet, otherwise he would definitely use all his pocket money to bet on Donghai No. 1 Primary School to advance to the quarterfinals. Chu Yi is so confident in his own strength.
Most people thought that it would be good enough for Donghai No. 1 Primary School to enter the top 32 this time, but his goal was to reach the top eight. If he says this now, many people will definitely laugh at him for being wishful thinking, but if he doesn't even have this dream, what's the difference between him and a salted fish? It’s a pity that he couldn’t make this bet, otherwise the bicycle would have turned into a motorcycle. After the national competition discussion area was opened, there would be tens of thousands of people chatting online at any time when you click in. The most mentioned issue is of course the battle between Wolong Academy and Beiming Primary School for the king. There has been a feud between the two schools since five years ago. Originally, Wolong Academy had won eight consecutive championships at that time, and was only one championship away from becoming the ninth champion. Who would have thought that Beiming Primary School, which had been established for less than ten years, would emerge as a dark horse and snatch two championships from the era when Wolong Academy dominated everything, thus completely shattering Wolong Academy's dream of winning the national championship for nine consecutive years. From then on, the two schools had a feud. They often engaged in verbal battles on the Internet, and students from the two schools could often be seen fighting in the Children's Palace in Beijing. To describe their relationship in one word it's like fire and water. In this national competition, Wolong Academy is preparing well and is eager to win the third consecutive championship. Beiming Primary School is also gearing up, eager to end its arch-rival's championship streak. Before the battle officially started, the vanguards of both sides had already started fighting in the Internet discussion forum. In addition to these two schools, other old and famous schools also have complicated grievances and hatreds with each other. At one time, students and even graduates from seven or eight schools were attacking each other in the discussion forum. The chaotic scene seemed to have turned the entire northwestern Shanxi into a mess. But the excitement was all for others, and Chu Yi searched the discussion area for a long time but couldn't find his name. It is estimated that like the entire Donghai No. 1 Primary School, it has become a weak team in this national competition and is not worthy of any attention from netizens. This made him very distressed. Attention means the highlight of life and can be directly converted into the number of lottery draws. If I remain an invisible person all the time, then when will I be able to upgrade the achievement of [The Attention of All]?
Therefore, Chu Yi urgently needs to improve his popularity, but he has no better way to do it, so he can only keep refreshing the discussion thread. However, with the release of the lottery results, the attention Chu Yi wanted finally came. In the first round, Donghai No. 1 Primary School’s opponent was Tianwen Private School, which ranked fourth among the four schools in Beijing. This school is also a long-established strong team. It won a championship at the beginning of the century. Although it has been tepid in recent years, its worst result has always been in the top 16. Although the strength of the players this year has declined compared with previous years, other schools have also graduated a large number of main players. According to the Beast Taming Theory of Relativity, if everyone loses a few main forces, it means that the strength has not changed. It is also said that Tianwen Private School has prepared a secret weapon this year, which is so powerful that it can even scare Wolong Academy. Although it is not known whether this is a bluff or a real strong man has emerged, the slogan of Tianwen Private School this time is very catchy: Kill the Sleeping Dragon, pacify the North Sea, Tianwen aims for the championship! What's even more exciting than the slogans are the students of Tianwen Private School. After seeing that Wolong Academy and Beiming Primary School were divided into the same half zone and were destined to meet before the finals, the students of Tianwen Private School immediately opened the champagne. "This is a good draw. Why do I say it is a good draw? I just hope that Beiming Primary School can show more of Wolong Academy's skills and clear the way for Tianwen Private School to win the championship. Of course, winning would be the best. If Beiming Primary School loses and Tianwen Private School wins the championship, then Beiming Primary School can get one-third of the credit for this championship. As for the primary school affiliated to Capital University, two words: just go with the flow. I am a fan of Tianwen Private School, a rational fan. " These hundred or so words fully express the mentality of everyone in Tianwen Private School at this moment. In their opinion, all other schools are here to compete for second place, and the champion this time must be Tianwen Private School. This group of people have become so arrogant that they don't even take the top two kings seriously. Will they even look at the unknown Donghai No. 1 Primary School? Under this bible-like post, students of Tianwen Private School have begun discussing which player should be sent to defeat Donghai No. 1 Primary School with a one-on-seven score. In addition to the team trophy, the national competition will also select seven best beastmasters. The criteria for the award are very simple. The more wins you have, the easier it is to win the award. If you can win six or seven at a time, you will get considerable impression points from the judges. Therefore, when a strong team plays against a weak team, they will usually send out their strongest main players to improve their stats first. This way, after the finals, you will have a better chance of winning the honor of "Best Beast Tamer". As for the weak teams, they don’t need to think about these things. What they should consider is how to deploy their troops to make their defeat look more graceful. Soon, Chu Yi found the victory and defeat vote related to himself in the discussion area of the Beast Taming Competition. "In the battle between Tianwen Private School and Donghai No. 1 Primary School, who do you think will win?" Chu Yi clicked on Donghai No. 1 Primary School, and then found that the votes were 80,000 to 300. More than 99% of people thought that Tianwen Private School would easily defeat Donghai No. 1 Primary School. "Online public opinion is one-sided." Chu Yi shook his head helplessly. Suddenly, the system gave me a prompt in my mind: “Special achievement triggered! Get the chance to unlock [A Man's Heart Is as Strong as Iron Until Death]! Achievement unlocking requirements: Defeat Tianwen Private School! Achievement unlock reward: Golden beast control skill [Eight Gates]!"
