As the applause fell once more, Gu Yun spoke for the third time, saying, "At eight o'clock tomorrow morning, the round-robin tournament will officially begin. According to the competition schedule, starting tomorrow, there will be one round of the round-robin tournament each day. This means that each of the ten contestants will have a match every day. The winner will score 3 points, a tie will earn 1 point, and the loser, 0 points."
"If a contestant concedes or withdraws from the competition due to injury or other reasons, their opponent will receive a bye and directly earn 3 points."
"Next, please welcome Sword King Hua Jian to draw lots for the upcoming round-robin competition!"
At the end of his announcement, Gu Yun intentionally turned sideways, casting his gaze toward Old Sword King Hua Jian behind him.
