Chapter 699: Unlucky Jiang Yongqi_1
Kuang Sheng also had bad luck; his opponent was from the Feng Yang Dragon Soul Department, whose strength was far superior. Before ten moves were made, Kuang Sheng was defeated and fell from the stage.
Defeated, Kuang Sheng walked back dejectedly. Su Chengyu said, "You should take Lu Hong back to rest first."
Lu Hong waved his hand and said, "I’m alright, I should stay and cheer for Mr. Su and the others from our Dragon Soul Department."
After the first round of competition, there was an hour’s rest time. The winners then returned to Martial Art Field number one for the next round of draws.
In this round, Jiangdong Dragon Soul Department did pretty well, eliminating exactly five opponents, leaving five to progress to the next round. On the other hand, Jiangbei Dragon Soul Department had it hard, with only two progressing to the next round. Feng Yang Dragon Soul Department was the strongest, with seven advancing.
The second round of drawing began on time. Since there were only thirty competitors remaining, divided into fifteen groups, there was a slight change in the rules. The subsequent matches would all be held in Martial Art Field number one. The order of the match-ups was changed to the first against the thirtieth, second against the nineteenth, and so on.
Jiang Yongqi, the number one seed of the Danyang Dragon Soul Department, drew the first number. He immediately entered the arena and after having his number verified by the referee, he looked around for his opponent.
In this Dragon Soul Competition, Jiang Yongqi’s strength was among the top, second only to Su Chengyu and Lee Longqing. Under normal circumstances, he was a sure bet for the top three.
"The contestant who drew number thirty, please enter the stage," the referee said.
Everyone turned to each other, looking for the unfortunate guy who encountered Danyang’s number one seed, only to see Su Chengyu walking slowly onto the stage; his body moved and he was already on stage.
"Jiang Yongqi’s opponent is Su Cheng? He’s really out of luck."
