Chapter 485: The most promising year【Subscribe】
Therefore, as soon as they finished the game, the list of the top eight in the team competition will all appear.
In the first half of the division, Lomonosov Moscow State University had a not-so-popular upset and swept the University of Berlin as the second place in the group, knocking them out.
In addition, the other group No. 1 University of Washington, University of Rome and Imperial Beast all defeated their opponents and advanced to the quarterfinals.
In the lower half, there were no accidents.
Nishikawa University, Tokyo University, Kyoto University and Phoenix University all won and advanced to the quarterfinals.
After the game, the Hua Guo commentator made an excited summary.
"The top 16 of the Global Competition has finally come to an end, and the list of the top eight has been released!"
"Chinese players performed well in the singles competition. Chen Wen from Sichuan University and Liu Yu from Beijing University both reached the quarterfinals."
"The Chinese team also achieved outstanding results in the team competition. Both Peking University and Sichuan University defeated their respective strong enemies and advanced to the next round."
"On the world's top stage, in this most core finals circle, we still have two top teams, and there are two strongest beast masters of the new generation fighting."
"I have to say that this year is the most promising year for China to win the championship!"
Huaguo's Beastmaster has developed very rapidly, and its comprehensive strength is no worse than other top beastmaster powers, but its results in the Global College Student Beastmaster Competition are not good.
Whether it is a single competition or a team competition, the best result is only the runner-up.
It's not that there is no one in Huaguo.
On the one hand, the education reform of the Beast Master in Hua Country was later than other countries, which resulted in the strength of the Beast Master University being weaker than that of other countries.
On the other hand, it is the reason of national policy.
Foreign pet animal resources are basically monopolized by high-level officials. Although this has cut off the advancement of many ordinary people, the concentration of resources has indeed made many big chaebols and noble beast masters stand out.
Among other things, the children of the royal family of England can contract epic-level potential pet beasts as long as they awaken the talent of beast control.
Talent is suddenly overshadowed by ability.
Unlike Huaguo, ordinary people also have the opportunity to contract epic potential pet beasts.
However, because epic-level potential pet beasts are more precious, the rules formulated by Huaguo are relatively strict, which makes it difficult for many people to contract epic-level potential pet beasts in the early stage.
Even if they can be obtained by contract, they are often only contracted to one or two epic level potential pet beasts, which are not as good as those royal nobles in other countries.
In the case of a large difference in the qualifications of pet animals, it is understandable that Huaguo college students did not win the championship.
After listening to the impassioned words of his partner Fang Xing, Gu Gu suddenly expressed a different opinion: "I don't think this year is the most promising year."
"ah?"
Fang Xing was full of doubts, and looked at his partner who sang against him in surprise.
Gu Gu raised his chest a little, and smiled confidently: "I think there is more hope in two years' time, when we will represent our junior Chen Wen and senior Dongfang Jue, they are already so strong now. Great, wouldn't it be soaring into the sky two years later, unstoppable?"
Fang Xing suddenly smiled when he heard the words, and then seemed to think of something, and said, "That's true...but let's focus on the present moment!"
As an expert beast master, he knows more.
…
On the bus at the Hui Hotel, Gong Zikun and others sang and danced, discussing what to eat for dinner.
With the strength and background of Sichuan University, advancing to the top eight is a super-level task. Liu Jianguo was very happy and decided to treat them to a big meal before they left Chicago
After everyone made a decision, Liu Jianguo called Chen Wen to his side.
Chen Wensan walked to Liu Jianguo and sat down beside Liu Jianguo, looking at his principal curiously.
Liu Jianguo asked with a smile, "How do you feel, reaching the quarter-finals in both the individual and team competitions?"
Chen Wen chuckled lightly and said, "I'm quite happy."
Liu Jianguo could see that Chen Wenwen was not complacent because of his current achievements, but just purely happy, so he couldn't help nodding his head slightly.
"very good!"
He first glanced at Chen Wen affirmatively, and then asked: "Do you still remember the conditions when Zhao Zhente recruited you?"
"certainly!"
Chen Wen nodded directly, and then smiled confidently: "Isn't it just to be on the podium of the global competition? Don't worry, I will not only be on the podium, but also a few more times."
Although his opponent is strong, he is confident that he will win the singles this year.
As for the team competition, he was not absolutely sure.
But if this session doesn’t work, there will be a next session, and he will only be in his junior year, so he still has a chance to participate.
With the speed at which his strength is improving, he might be a master beast by then. Wouldn't it be easy to win the championship and get the card?
Liu Jianguo glanced at Chen Wen playfully, and then said, "I'm not surprised that you won the medal in the singles competition, but I never thought that you are so confident that you can now lead Sichuan University to the podium with confidence."
Although Gong Zikun is the captain of the Sichuan team, everyone knows that Chen Wen leads the team and is the real core.
"Now?"
Chen Wen showed doubts on his face, frowned and said, "It's still difficult to win a medal in the team competition this year. Will it not work in the next one?"
He still has self-knowledge, no matter how strong Ah Bao is, he is only a rare beast, and there is still a possibility of being targeted.
If he wants to lead Sichuan University to win the medal with just one beast, the probability is not too high.
He wanted to go hand in hand in both the individual competition and the team competition, but he was also mentally prepared to lose.
Liu Jianguo did not answer his question, but instead asked, "Do you feel that there are very few expert beast masters on Earth?"
Chen Wen thought for a while, then nodded.
Judging from the quality of graduates from major universities, a large number of professional and elite beast masters enter the society every year.
Even if these beast masters are not very talented, they should be promoted to experts after ten or twenty years.
However, in reality, except for major universities, it is rare to see expert beast masters.
Even in colleges and universities, expert-level beast masters are actually common, and many of their teachers are always on and off.
Chen Wen thought about it for a while, and tentatively asked: "Do they often go to the secret realm?"
"Not only going to the secret realm, but also stationing in the secret realm."
Liu Jianguo corrected it, and then asked: "Do you know why so many beast masters don't enjoy life with their wives and children who are hot on the kiln, but they just go to the secret realm to fight life and death?"
Chen Wen thought about it for a while, and said, "Defend the family and the country!"
Liu Jianguo looked at Chen Wen after hearing the words, and then said: "There are indeed such enlightened beast masters, but most of them are for resources."
Speaking of this, he asked again: "Then do you know what resources they are craving?"
Chen Wen didn't answer this time, but looked directly at Liu Jianguo and said, "Principal, please clarify."
