"What's your number?"
Jiang Guiju looked at Li Pu.
"Number 10977."
Li Pu replied.
"That means you've been allocated to the fourth batch of the preliminary selection, then."
Chang Shoushang checked the time, estimating there would be a bit of a wait.
The elimination rate in the preliminary round is quite high, with the rules being group matches.
There are 300 card tables at the venue, with each group consisting of 10 people.
The 10 players face off at the same table in a round-robin format, with the player with the best record advancing to the next round.
In other words, the qualification rate is merely 10:1.
This preliminary selection will last two days, reducing the number of participants by tenfold.
Basically, those who joined just for fun won't get past this round.
"It's alright, let's go watch others play first."
Li Pu didn't mind waiting; he wanted to see the skill level of other participants.
So the group followed him to table number 198, where he was allocated.
