After the drawing of ballots had ended, Thirteen looked at the lineup on the LCD Screen in front of him.
Mikhail was in Group 2, while Shasha was in Group 3.
Erica and Shana were both in Group 4.
It was inevitable for his people to end up fighting each other, so all he could do was make sure that they were properly placed in groups where they would have some advantage.
Cristopher and Colbert were in Group 2, while Alcapone and his Mafia Members were in Group 3.
His Squad Captains were in Group 4, and they were matched up against the Prodigies of the Monarch Clans and Prestigious Families.
Believing that Alcapone and the others wouldn't be able to exert their full might if they fought against the friends that they had trained with in the Rigel Continent, Thirteen rigged it so that they wouldn't have to eliminate each other in the opening matches.
