The Road to Godhood in Honor of Kings

Originally, Han Cheng and Ye Bing didn't want to go to an amusement park, but following the principle of majority rule, they went anyway. To be honest, Han Cheng had never been to an amusement park before, and he was incredibly curious about all the rides, trying them all out.

Then, as evening approached, everyone decided to have another meal, but they hadn't decided where to eat.

"How about we go to that Pizza Hut in the city? It's been open for a few days now, and I haven't been there yet!" Xu Xiaomeng suggested.

Pizza Hut? Han Cheng recalled the time he rescued his homeroom teacher—it was right there! And he even had a big meal there!

"Great! I heard there's a new challenge there. If you defeat the defending team, you can win the prize pool!" Sun Wukong said.

"Really? With our skills, the prize pool is all ours, isn't it?" The fat man's lips curled up.

"What do you think?" Xu Xiaomeng asked Han Cheng and Ye Bing.

"Whatever!" Their answers were surprisingly consistent. The challenge was just a publicity stunt; the defending teams weren't weak, and the prize pool would ultimately go to this shop anyway. However, they'd let them have their way for now; otherwise, they wouldn't have given up so easily…

Han Cheng thought this through, and then went to the shop with the others without saying anything. The shop was located in the city center, not far from here, since this was not the suburbs.

"What would you like to order?" A waiter came over as soon as we sat down.

"Hmm, should we fight first, or eat first and then fight?" Xu Xiaomeng asked.

"Eat first, then fight!" Han Cheng and Ye Bing's answers were surprisingly consistent, but the answer "fight first, then eat" drowned out theirs. Okay, fight first, then eat. How can you fight without stamina? Just wait to lose! Han Cheng grinned mischievously. Let's see what you have to say after you lose, why did you have to come here!

Fatty and Sun Wukong asked no one for some money and excitedly ran to the front desk to pay.

"Phew, so eager to pay up?" Han Cheng looked helpless. He glanced at Ye Bing, who, though he didn't show it, was probably not happy either.

They went inside and sat in the challenger's reserved seats. Not far away was the garrison team; the group looked quite young. Actually, Han Cheng and his teammates weren't old either, even younger than them. These guys were similar to professional gamers, some of whom were probably retired.

Without saying a word, the competition started, after all, the purpose was to make a profit.

Han Cheng's team went first, probably because the other side was letting them win, but they won't be at too much of a disadvantage going second.

"Boss, what's off-limits?" Sun Hou looked at Han Cheng. Although Han Cheng's skills weren't as good as Ye Bing's, he was more than capable of serving as a strategic commander and instructor.

"Monkey, I'm not trying to be mean, but after banning so many heroes, you still haven't learned how?" Han Cheng complained. "You ban Guan Yu or Luna without understanding your opponent."

"Oh, then ban Guan Yu. Guan Yu, it's not that I look down on you, but Luna is a girl, after all," Sun Wukong muttered to himself as he banned heroes. While he was talking to himself, everyone else was speechless.

Then Sun Wukong gave Han Cheng Han Xin, since he didn't know him well and it was safer to choose the familiar and popular Han Xin.

The opposing team also tacitly banned Luna and chose a combination of Sun Shangxiang and Sun Bin.

Finally, the lineup for Miracle Team was finalized: top laner Sun Wukong with Execute, mid laner Angela with Flash, jungler Han Xin with Smite, ADC Genghis Khan with Swiftness, and support Zhong Wuyan with Heal.

The opposing King of Glory team (King of Glory is their team name) had the following lineup: Xiahou Dun in the top lane with Execute, Diao Chan in the mid lane with Purify, Li Bai in the jungle with Smite, Sun Shangxiang in the ADC with Swiftness, and Sun Bin in the support with Heal.

Both teams fielded strong lineups, each with its own strengths and weaknesses.

At level one, everyone took each other's blue buffs and stole the opponent's red buff, then dispersed to push lanes.

Right at the start of the game, the notification sound for the first blood rang out. It was Xiahou Dun in the top lane who solo killed Sun Wukong.

"I... Xiahou Dun controlled too much..." Sun Wukong looked innocent, but no one paid him any attention. They just said "sneaky" and gave him a hateful look, and sent a message in the game saying "play it safe and don't be reckless".

At level two, both sides remained calm as the dragon spawned, becoming a highly contested objective. The King of Glory team initiated the dragon fight, but Miracle Team had no one coming to help, as everyone except Han Xin had gathered in the mid lane. This seemed like a trade of a tower for the dragon, but it was likely not the case. Han Cheng hadn't yet purchased a level two jungle item, precisely to make securing the dragon easier.

The Honor of Kings team gritted their teeth and started attacking the dragon. Li Bai teleported to the dragon and used his already-charged ultimate skill, which sent out several foxes with skins.

The others followed suit, and Xiaolong's health plummeted. Meanwhile, the opposing Li Bai hadn't used Smite yet, clearly worried that someone would steal the dragon. Their first tower also had low health, so they had to finish the battle quickly. They sent Sun Bin and Sun Shangxiang to defend the tower, while the rest of the team continued attacking the dragon.

The dragon's health is almost enough to be finished off with a single Smite!

"Three, two, one!"

"Whoosh!" Two bolts of lightning struck almost simultaneously. The enemy killed the Tyrant but failed to steal it!

Li Bai on the other side revealed a sly smile. "Little brat, you think you can steal the dragon from me?"

However, little did they know that Han Cheng's real intention was not what he seemed, because the mid-lane turret was about to be destroyed. Although Sun Shangxiang and Sun Bin were there, Sun Bin still died, and it was a hard kill!

Han Xin used his teleportation ability to jump into the dragon pit. Taking advantage of the moment when the enemy thought Han Xin was just trying to steal the dragon and hadn't reacted yet, he jumped in and suddenly activated his ultimate, instantly killing Li Bai. Li Bai was always in front and had already used his skills, so naturally he couldn't escape.

Although Xiahou Dun and Diao Chan were affected by Xiao Long and Han Xin's ultimate skills, losing some health and using up their skills, Xiahou Dun still had his ultimate skill available, as did Diao Chan, so they shouldn't be too vulnerable. Therefore, Han Xin quickly killed Li Bai with his second skill and nimbly and gracefully walked away, leaving only the corpse of a fox on the ground—no, a fox spirit.

Enraged, Diao Chan and Xiahou Dun charged towards the middle lane. If they were to engage in a team fight against the Miracle Team, who had just killed Sun Bin, they would have a significant advantage if they were to coordinate with Sun Shangxiang.

However, they discovered that there was no one left in the middle lane; they had all run away.

The Honor of Kings team suffered a bitter defeat. Although they secured the dragon, they lost Sun Bin and Li Bai, and the dragon was almost stolen.

"Yay!" Sun Wukong and Fatty gave each other a high five to celebrate their small victory in a small-scale team battle.

To be honest, the opposing team was no pushover. After being tricked in one wave, they became cautious and cautious, taking each step carefully to gradually expand their economy. Since Miracle Team had Zhong Wuyan, team fights might be difficult, so the King of Glory team avoided team fights. But Miracle Team wouldn't let them do that, forcing team fights at every turn.

And so, the two sides traded blows, with the economic gap not being that large. If it had to be a comparison of who had more, the King of Glory team would have a slight edge.

Finally, the decisive eight minutes arrived, and naturally, Baron Nashor spawned. The side with the higher gold could force team fights with the Baron buff, but failing to secure it and getting wiped out is a classic example of how Baron can ruin a game. Conversely, the side with the lower gold could turn the tide and win against all odds, which is incredibly satisfying.

"You've trespassed into the forbidden area!" The Shadow Overlord can actually speak?

Leaving Xiahou Dun to watch outside the dragon pit, they began to gang up on the dragon. Since the King of Glory team didn't have many tanky heroes, they were at a disadvantage in team fights.
