After introducing the contestants, a servant approached the stage while carrying a small box.
"This is what will decide your matchups. Whoever holds the same numbers will be fighting that round. That is all."
A moment later, the contestants picked their number.
Yuan looked at the paper in his hands.
'Number 1'
"The matches will be in the order of the number, so whoever has number one will be the first to fight," said the announcer on the stage.
"I am first," Yuan said.
The announcer nodded and looked at the other seven. "Who has the other number 1?"
"Haaa…"
Someone there sighed as he raised his hand into the air.
"It's me…" Wang Ming said in a defeated voice.
He turned to look at Yuan and smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect to lose on the first round. What bad luck."
"Everyone but the fighters for the first round please leave the stage!" The announcer said.
