The Man I Chose Is Truly Something

There were thirty-three teams competing in the finals.

That included one seeded team each from the Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire.

As well as one team directly advanced by Spirit Hall.

The remaining fifteen teams from each of the two great empires had advanced through the Preliminary Tournament and Promotion Tournament.

The format of the finals differed from both the Preliminary Tournament and Promotion Tournament.

It was essentially a combination of the Preliminary Tournament and Promotion Tournament.

It could be divided into three stages: the elimination rounds, semifinals, and finals.

The first stage was the most brutal elimination round.

Opponents would be determined by drawing lots.

It could roughly be divided into four rounds.

In every round, some teams would receive a bye.

In the first round, the three seeded teams directly advanced by the two great empires and Spirit Hall would receive byes.

The remaining thirty teams would draw lots and compete.

The winners advanced, while the losers were eliminated!

In the second round, the two teams ranked first in the Promotion Tournaments of the two great empires would receive byes.

The remaining sixteen teams, including the three directly advanced seeded teams, would face off in pairs.

The winners advanced, while the losers were eliminated.

In the third round, the two teams ranked second in the Promotion Tournaments of the two great empires would receive byes.

If either team had already been eliminated beforehand,

the bye would pass down according to the Promotion Tournament rankings.

Thus, two teams would receive byes while the other eight teams faced off in pairs.

The winners advanced, while the losers were eliminated.

In the fourth round, there would be no byes.

The remaining six teams would draw lots, then face off in pairs to determine the top three.
