Urban Elf: A perfect start, cutting off Gyarados.

"Since contestant number 19's Electivire exceeds the energy rating of the testing device, it is automatically ranked first and advances to the next round!"

This result was expected.

Some contestants were dissatisfied, arguing that since there was no ranking system, why should Lin Heng be ranked first?

The organizer shut them down with a single sentence.

"Otherwise, if you also crash the machine, we'll consider tying you for first place with Lin."

This statement left the questioner speechless.

He does.

Is this something that can be achieved simply by thinking about it?

However, the organizer's statement did indeed silence many people.

While the organizers of international events do have representatives from France, they also include personnel from other countries; they form a complete team.

Given the obvious circumstances, no one would dare to distort the truth or spread nonsense.

International events value credibility.

Occasional minor actions might be overlooked, but on matters of principle, no one dares to make any moves.

Due to the failure of the district tester, the organizing committee had to urgently request a backup machine.

In contrast, the backup unit reacts much slower.

However, the materials are the same.

It just takes a little longer to get the evaluation results.

After discussion, the organizing committee decided to assign some of the contestants from one district to other districts in order to save time as much as possible.

Later, only the appearance of the Emperor's son, Fujiwara no Osamu, caused a sensation, and he was ranked A-class, just like Giena.

This was originally an achievement worth celebrating.

But after Lin Heng's interlude, even the audience members were somewhat distracted.

The cheers and shouts were noticeably quieter than in Giena, and Fujiwara Osamu's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot after he left the field.

He secretly harbored resentment towards Lin Heng.

……

After lunch, the second round quickly began, with a total of two hundred contestants advancing to the main competition.

Although there are currently seventeen known properties of Earth.

However, most people are only good at a few popular attributes, and their level ratings for other less popular attributes are very poor.

We can't even gather 10 people, let alone 20.

Level D and above is considered barely passing the threshold.

The rules for the second round are to shuffle all the players and divide them into four groups for random matchups!

The top four teams were finally determined and advanced to the final round!

The organizers' main focus this time is high-speed competition, so they are trying to complete the event within two days.

Therefore, the second round is the most important part of this tournament!

The higher the ranking, the more rewards a player will receive, even if they don't make it to the finals.

Chapter 290 Redefining Equality for All!

The higher the ranking, the more rewards a player will receive, even if they don't make it to the finals.

Apart from trainers like Gienna, the Emperor's Son, and Lin Heng, most trainers are here for the main competition rankings.

They hope to achieve a high ranking, which will also help them expand their reputation, increase their popularity, improve their status in their country, and enhance their influence among young trainers!

There are four groups, with fifty people in each group.

Fifty people are randomly matched.

Multiple modes are available.

Team battles, individual battles, or one against a team.

In short.

If you have enough confidence in yourself, you can absolutely choose the last, neglected, devilish mode.

With just one game, they can win first place in the current group and smoothly enter the finals candidate.

of course.

This is assuming no one challenges it.

If someone challenges the player ranked first, the player must accept the challenge and continue to win in order to maintain their first-place position.

That's how ranking works.

However, each person only has one chance to take on the challenge.

It is not endless.

This chaotic style of play in the main competition reveals a hint of order.

This can be considered an experiment in the Eagle Nation Alliance Youth Championship.

Lin Heng was assigned to the second group.

Out of fear, the surrounding competitors automatically made way for Lin Heng, creating a vacuum zone.

Some found teammates and then matched up in twos and threes to choose the team battle mode.

Most players still compete in individual matches.

As they made their choices, everyone's gazes seemed to drift towards Lin Heng inside the vacuum zone, desperately praying that his choice would differ from theirs.

Some people, in order to avoid being matched with Lin Heng and becoming his opponents, simply sat on the ground and waited for him to finish making his selection before proceeding.

This kind of thing doesn't only happen to Lin Heng.

The same applies to Guyana and Osamu Fujiwara.

All three are favorites to win the championship. Previously, Gienna was the most popular choice, but after what just happened, Lin Heng, who was the least favored among the three, suddenly emerged as a dark horse.

Even in the casino, Lin Heng's odds plummeted instantly!

They could have achieved a score of 5 to 1 or 4 to 1.

After one round, the score became 2.5 to 1, or even 1.5 to 1, making it a close match with Fujiwara Osamu.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lin Heng walked towards the machine that allowed him to select a mode.

I pressed the last button, the one that no one had pressed since the selection process began!

One against a team!

This choice shocked countless people.

Even Gienna and Fujiwara, who were paying close attention to him, widened their eyes.

Individual versus team...

This choice is just too risky!

For them at this stage, making it to the finals is the primary goal.

Individual combat is the safest approach.

And someone like Gienna even has trainers hired by her family to protect her, so she has enough confidence in both individual battles and team battles.

Fujiwara Osamu had actually hired some trainers, but those trainers were unfortunately eliminated in the first round.

He now only has one mode to choose from.

A sinister glint flashed in Fujiwara Osamu's eyes: "Have Father fire them, they're a bunch of trash."

"If they weren't so useless, I would still have a chance to deal with Lin Heng in this round!"

He spoke through gritted teeth.

He was indeed very disappointed, after all, in his eyes...

Lin Heng's actions were tantamount to courting death.

The individual vs. group format is very unpredictable; a group format could be two people, or it could be three!

Even if there are no more than three people, it still means facing three ace Pokémon at the same time!

To have made it to the international championships and gotten this far.

Which one isn't an outstanding young person?

Their ace must be at the peak of their level, so facing one of them wouldn't pose much of a problem for them.

But what about two or three?

Quantity can be extremely important; it can change the entire situation!
