Chapter 2609 Draw lots!
The format of the Nine Tribes Competition is actually very simple. It is a drawing of lots and a battle. Put all the numbers of the people who are qualified to participate in the competition together, and then draw lots. Whoever is drawn wins.
Therefore, for many aristocratic families who are relatively unlucky, this method is very likely to draw one of their own.
If you encounter such a situation, you can only consider yourself unlucky. After all, the lottery has equal opportunities for all contestants.
In fact, there are not many people who can actually participate in the Nine Clans Competition. There are only about four or five people from each family, and the total number of children from the nine families is about forty or fifty.
Therefore, the probability that one of your own people will draw your own person is probably only one in ten. This probability is actually not very high.
However, although the probability is not high, such situations have often happened in previous competitions. In many cases, there will even be situations where two of the strongest children from the same family are fighting against each other.
Regarding such a situation, it can be said that it is the situation that one's own family least wants to see, but it is also the situation that other families want to see the most.
Because this situation will definitely help other aristocratic families lose a powerful opponent. However, if any aristocratic family really encounters such a situation, they will often not start a war, but will only let the weaker party take the initiative to admit defeat.
After all, when such a situation occurs, it means that one person will definitely be eliminated. If the fight continues, it will only cause damage to both of them, which will be very detrimental to the subsequent game.
Therefore, in order to prevent the winner from being able to successfully proceed with the following battles and at the same time not allowing the enemy to take advantage, it is the best way for the weak to take the initiative to admit defeat.
Because those participating in the Nine Clans Competition are basically people from the Nine Great Families, and there are very few outsiders participating. There are actually very few people like Cheng Yu.
Therefore, they don't have that many procedures, because their competition this time is for the next Dead Realm, not a show specially for the audience. Their only audience is almost the disciples of the nine great families.
There were no complicated steps. As the host, Nangong Chengye, the head of the Nangong family, gave a brief introduction, and all those who were qualified to participate in the competition began to draw lots.
It can be said that in the entire competition process, the drawing of lots is the most nervous part, because no one wants to draw their own person.
They came here to make a name for themselves. If one of their own was drawn, they might not even have a chance to make a move and would be directly eliminated. That would be a pity and a shame.
"Junior Brother Yu, do you think Brother Hongyuan can make it into the top three in today's competition?" Sitting on the outside of the ring, Xinhai and the others said as they looked at the people who were drawing lots.
"I don't know the people from the nine major families, so how do I know if he can make it into the top three? Although everyone who participated in the competition is here now, many strengths cannot be seen from the surface.
So, all I can say is wait and see!" Cheng Yu shook his head and said.
There are four arenas in the entire competition venue, which are arranged according to the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest. Now all the contestants are drawing lots, so the atmosphere is a bit tense now.
Especially for those aristocratic families, there are countless prayers in their hearts, hoping that they will not draw the strongest opponent, let alone one of their own.
There are a total of five people from the Chen family participating in the competition this time. In addition to the two brothers Chen Hongyuan and Chen Qiuhan, there are also two people, one named Chen Honghai and the other named Chen Dong.
The former is Chen Hongyuan's cousin, who is in the early stage of Mahayana.
The latter did not seem to be very conspicuous in the Chen family before, and even many Chen family members did not know that there was such a person. However, he appeared at this time, and his strength was not weak. He was actually in the middle stage of Mahayana.
This surprised many Chen family disciples.
It can be said that Chen Dong is a dark horse of the Chen family. However, many people do not have much hope for him.
You know, this is a place where geniuses gather. A person who reaches the middle stage of Mahayana at the age of 500 can be said to be a genius. But here, the geniuses in the middle stage of Mahayana are really not considered to be top geniuses.
At least there are still two masters in the late Mahayana stage in the Chen family, namely the two brothers Chen Hongyuan. As for Chen Qiuhan, he is also in the middle stage of the Mahayana stage now.
In fact, everyone is not surprised that he reached the middle stage of Mahayana, but many Chen family disciples are extremely envious of Chen Qiuhan.
Because Chen Qiuhan's father is the eldest elder of the Chen family, their lineage is still very powerful in the Chen family. Everyone knows that Chen Qiuhan was only in the early stage of Mahayana two months ago, but now he is in the middle stage of Mahayana.
No one believes that Chen Qiuhan is the one who achieved his breakthrough in the middle stage of Mahayana, because although his talent is high, it is not possible for him to be so unbelievable. Therefore, everyone knows that his current achievements are entirely because of having a good father.
It allowed him to break through to the middle stage of Mahayana in such a short period of time.
However, besides envy, jealousy and hatred, what can we do?
This is not the case even for the eldest and second young masters of the Chen family, because they have both broken through a realm in the past two months. And before that, both of them had just broken through once.
When such a situation occurs, they only blame themselves for not having a good father who can not directly help them break through like them.
Otherwise, they might be called geniuses and appear on the stage of the Nine Clans Competition. Of course, this can only be regarded as their best dream, because in this life, they will not have such an opportunity.
"Among all the aristocratic families, the one I dislike the most is the Situ family. I heard that the Situ family ranks second in the Nine Clans Competition, second only to the Ji family.
I really hope that the Situ Family can draw their two most powerful people together in the first round, so that they can have fun!" Xinhai said with a smile.
"The chance of this is too small, but it's not impossible." Xinluo said.
"Actually, the Ji family is so strong. It would be even more interesting if the most powerful person from the Situ family draws the strongest person from the Ji family in the first round!" Xinhe said with a smile.
"Haha, if this is the case, I guess the head of the Situ family will be so angry that he will vomit blood." Xinhai laughed.
"You can't say that. Although the last time the Ji family ranked first and the Situ family ranked behind, this kind of thing cannot be so definite. No one can be sure that this time the Situ family will be stronger than the Ji family.
Weak, so if such a situation really happens, the Ji family may not necessarily win." Cheng Yu kept looking at the geniuses of the nine great families and said casually.
