The lots would be drawn by the machine in the ceremony later.
The so-called seeds were not chosen by the organizer. Those were the most popular contestants. Thus, there was a possibility for some powerhouses to be grouped together during the later drawing process.
It was precisely because of this reason that the lot drawing ceremony became the center of attention.
When the top ten finalists were selected, these powerhouses may not have the opportunity to encounter one another. That was because the choice would be in the Silver Dragon Princess Gu Yuena's hands by then.
At this point, the round-robin tournament was of the utmost importance.
All of the contestants were hoping to avoid opponents with powerful abilities because there were only ten slots available. Not being grouped together with a powerhouse meant that they could steer clear of a difficult match which would increase their chances of becoming a finalist.
