The registration for the World Championship lasted for a week, confirming the list of contestants and submitting team information. Yu Mingxiang was responsible for all the behind-the-scenes work. Jiang Shaoyu still focused all his energy on daily training.

After this period of intensive training, most of the training software made by Qin Bo passed the tenth level. Even Qin Xueyao, who is very weak in shooting, has worked hard to pass the ninth level. When in good condition, she can even shoot headshots.

In fact, the ninth level is already a very high requirement.

However, the players of the national team did not dare to be careless and trained hard one by one, for fear that if they did not do well, they would be ordered to write a review by Coach Jiang. The awe and recognition of Jiang Shaoyu in everyone's heart made daily training a "must complete task". Over time, the players' basic operations and reaction speed have been significantly improved.

As Jiang Shaoyu said, a solid foundation will be reflected in the competition. The accumulation of these details often changes the outcome of a game.

In addition to the training in the team, the external practice matches have not fallen, and the frequency of practice matches is still two per week. The coaches of Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia and other national teams would guess Jiang Shaoyu's lineup every practice match…  Unfortunately, they never guessed right.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the Imperial Capital entered winter.

With the first heavy snow since the beginning of winter in the Imperial Capital, the list of participating countries and groupings for the World Series was finally officially announced on the official website of the International Gun King League.

There are 32 participating countries from all over the world, divided into 8 groups.

Groups A, B, C, and D are the upper half, and groups E, F, G, and H are the lower half.

The group stage adopts the common BO3 points competition system, and the round-robin competition within the group is based on the winning map to settle the score. Win a map and earn 1 point, and the top 2 teams in the group will enter the next knockout stage.

The matchup rules for the top 16 are AB and CD in the upper half, and EF and GH in the lower half. The first place in the group plays against the second place in the other group. The BO5 knockout system will determine the top 8.

The game of 8 into 4 is still divided into the upper and lower half.

It won't be until the semi-finals that the teams from the top and bottom half would meet.

The quarterfinals of last year's World Series were divided into 8 groups according to the rules. The U.S. team, Australia, South Korea, and France are in Groups A-D in the upper half.

England, Germany, Italy, and Brazil are in Groups E~H in the bottom half.

The Huaguo team was placed in Group F. The opponents in the same group were the third-placed German team in last year's World Series, as well as the Canadian and Spanish teams in the top 16.

As soon as the group list came out, it immediately aroused heated discussions on the Internet.

"The overall strength of Group F is very strong. Germany was the third runner-up last year, and Canada and Spain also entered the round of 16 last year. It is a nightmare grouping."

"Will they treat the Huaguo team as cannon fodder for scoring points?"

"From the perspective of historical results, the Huaguo team is indeed the worst in the group."
