Chapter 328: The Battle with Qingjing University! Looking Forward to It! (Subscribe!)
The third round of singles matches had a total of 11 bouts.
The first bout, Zhou Yi versus Li Xin, could be called clean and decisive, ending in less than a minute.
But in reality, no contestant who made it to the third round of singles was a pushover.
So for most of the remaining singles matches, the fight time was roughly around ten minutes.
Some evenly matched bouts would even drag on for half an hour before ending!!
Of course, there were also some quicker ones.
For example, the bout between Wei He and Liu Yang—Wei He claimed victory in just a minute and a half......
After each match, there was a ten-minute break in between.
This time was for the upcoming contestants to adjust their condition.
It was also to let the spectators in the stadium relax and pull themselves out of the tense mood.
It's worth mentioning that there was no break at noon.
As professional Awakeners, the contestants could go days without eating, so skipping a noon meal was nothing to them.
If the spectators needed anything, they could use the ordering option on their seats to place an order.
Ten minutes after ordering, a robot would deliver lunch right to their seat—truly very smart.
Just like that, by the time all 11 matches of the third round of singles were finished, it was already two or three in the afternoon.
Suhang University had a total of three people advance to the fourth round of singles.
They were Zhou Yi, Jiang Churan, and Song Xialan.
The other top universities also had roughly three people each advancing to the fourth round.
In other words, out of the 11 slots, the three elite universities together took up 8 of them.
Only 3 came from the other ordinary universities.
And this, from another angle, showed just how powerful the elite universities were.
In previous years, Suhang University usually only had two people make it into the fourth round.
Having one extra today made Wu Mang very happy as well.
He encouraged everyone for a bit, then used Liu Yang as a negative example to give a pointed criticism.
First losing to Wei He in singles, then getting criticized by Dean Wu Mang.
Liu Yang's whole person drooped like an eggplant hit by frost.
Wu Mang, however, paid it no heed at all.
For someone like Liu Yang, strict discipline was a must!
