The Road to Godhood in Honor of Kings

"Hmm." Han Cheng nodded, guessing that the next team probably wouldn't be too strong. After all, they had just encountered a strong team, and it would be strange if they encountered another one. They couldn't possibly put all the strong teams together to determine a winner, otherwise there would be no competition tomorrow.

Then the host came up to explain, and it was the same beautiful woman from before.

"Hello everyone, wasn't the match just now exciting? The next match is a crucial battle to determine the top four. Tomorrow will be the grand final to determine the city champion. Aren't you all looking forward to it? Let's wait and see!" The host gave a brief introduction and then stepped off the stage. Fatty and Sun Hou looked on with lustful thoughts, but then Fatty seemed to realize something and immediately stopped his fantasies. Han Cheng was particularly worried that Fatty was thinking about their homeroom teacher. If it was a teacher-student relationship, that would be too terrible...

Game start.

Han Cheng glanced at the group of college students opposite him, who all seemed quite normal, and didn't think much of it.

"What for?" Sun Wukong asked again.

"Is that even a question?" Han Cheng looked at Sun Wukong with some difficulty.

"No, I mean you should bring out a stronger lineup, then it won't just be Guan Yu and Luna that get taken down," Sun Wukong said.

"Pah! You still haven't given me the skin you promised me last time, you fatso. I would have forgotten about it if you hadn't brought it up!" Han Cheng thought to himself, but still said seriously, "It's not the right time yet." Sun Wukong had no choice but to ban Guan Yu.

Surprisingly, the opposing team didn't ban Luna but instead banned Zhuang Zhou. Han Cheng was curious. Since his team had the first move, weren't the opponents afraid that they would steal Luna? However, banning Zhuang Zhou was clearly to prevent his team from stealing Luna, since Luna is still very vulnerable to crowd control, and having Zhuang Zhou would make the game much easier. But banning Zhuang Zhou doesn't necessarily mean that Luna is unplayable.

However, Miracle Team ultimately didn't choose Luna. Firstly, no one else played her; Han Cheng didn't really want to play Luna, and besides, Han Cheng wasn't particularly good at it, at least not top-tier. Secondly, Miracle Team wasn't worried about the opponent playing Luna, which could be considered a bit of underestimation of their opponent.

And so, the Miracle Team picked a lineup similar to the previous game, except that Monkey King was picked instead of Monkey King, Sun Wukong played Old Master, and Xu Xiaomeng played Ying Zheng. Everything else remained the same.

The opposing team picked Sun Wukong, and their lineup consisted of Sun Wukong, Diao Chan, Luna, Hou Yi, and Yu Ji, with two marksmen in the bottom lane and no warriors or tanks, making them a melee team. This kind of lineup is quite dominant in the early game and has high burst damage in the late game, but it is vulnerable to crowd control and can easily be killed. Once crowd control is applied, the team will be wiped out. They could have used Zhuang Zhou to compensate for this, but they banned Zhuang Zhou.

However, Miracle Team didn't gain much control either, probably due to underestimating their opponents.

The opposing team's name should be "summer" because that's their ID prefix.

Miracle Team played their usual strategy, only to find that their opponents were laning normally, with only Luna and Hou Yi farming in the jungle. When Miracle Team went to invade their jungle, they cleverly avoided the confrontation and chose to retreat. However, after the invasion, news came from the lanes that Ying Zheng had been killed. Miracle Team had retreated in the jungle but created an advantage in the lanes, ultimately losing out.

Han Cheng was a little worried that he had underestimated his opponent. The opponent had been playing steadily and seemed to be even stronger than Xing Feng's team. But shouldn't he be avoiding strong teams again? It seems that something unexpected has happened.

Finally, the enemy Luna reached level four, but before that, Miracle Team had already taken the lead and started the dragon. Just when the dragon was at low health, Night Ice noticed that the enemy Luna was coming.

"Does he want to outplay four opponents by himself?" Han Cheng looked at the minimap. Apart from Ying Zheng pushing a lane, everyone else on his team was fighting the dragon. The Summer team, on the other hand, was doing the opposite. Only Luna came to steal the dragon, while the rest of them were on their lanes and seemed to be gathering in the mid lane to take down their first tower and kill Ying Zheng. However, they didn't do it. After all, the Miracle team was about to finish the dragon and might even surround them.

As expected, Luna charged into the dragon pit alone. Han Cheng was ready to use his first skill to knock him up, but Luna entered the outer perimeter, released a Smite, and then used her ultimate skill to retreat along the outer perimeter of Zhong Wuyan. She then used another ultimate skill to leave. Luna's ultimate skill refreshes when it hits a unit in a line, so even if she passes by a unit with the Moonlight Mark, it will refresh. Therefore, Luna used two ultimate skills to retreat.

Han Cheng was about to laugh at the enemy Luna for wasting a Smite, since Smite prioritizes attacking heroes, not jungle monsters. If Luna wanted to steal the dragon, she would have to cheat, since Han Cheng had just seen Luna build Smite and buy the jungle item. Moreover, when he checked the scoreboard, Luna's equipment hadn't changed yet; she still had Smite.

However, Han Cheng saw a notification on the screen that the enemy Luna had already killed the Tyrant. A gasp rippled through the audience. Fatty and Sun Wukong were just about to report Luna for cheating to the referee.

"What? How could the dragon be stolen? I only saw him use Smite!" Han Cheng was puzzled when Ye Bing casually said, "Actually, he just sold his jungle item and didn't buy it back in a very short time. Although he wasted some money, he gained the Tyrant, which increases the experience and gold of the entire team." Han Cheng immediately felt that he had finally met a real opponent. How could the enemy Luna be so strong?

—It's unknown, but I guess he's still single.

Han Cheng looked at the young man controlling Luna opposite him, a sly smile on his face. Han Cheng only felt regret; he had underestimated his opponent. He guessed that this Luna would show him off, and even if she didn't, his team's melee team wasn't chosen for nothing. The opposing Hou Yi and Yu Ji were extremely terrifying. Fortunately, Zhong Wuyan was tough and had strong control, while Sun Shangxiang had mobility and her enhanced basic attack range was particularly long, so the suppression wasn't too obvious.

The next day, the Tyrant spawned. The opposing team didn't immediately use their ultimate. Since Miracle Team had a Han Xin, they still chose to take the dragon first, but this time they were more cautious. For this reason, Han Cheng even sold his jungle item and kept the Smite in hand in case the opponent tried to steal it again. It seems that Han Cheng hasn't felt this sense of urgency since participating in the city tournament.

However, Luna on the other side did not invade the enemy jungle. Instead, she chose to push the mid lane. Fortunately, Ying Zheng was able to escape quickly after activating his second skill. When the four members of Miracle Team returned, the five members of the opposing team had already pushed straight to the second tower and reduced its health by half.

Han Cheng was shocked to see this and rushed over with the other three, only to be outplayed by Luna on the other side.

Luna was seen weaving back and forth between the four members of the Miracle Team, while Zhong Wuyan failed to petrify them. After all, although Zhong Wuyan's petrification was powerful, it was still too unstable.

Han Xin's knock-up isn't that powerful; it's only suitable for one-on-one fights. After all, you often can't land that many hits in team fights. Only the first part of his first skill and the last part of his ultimate are very effective at knocking up enemies, and they can't be dodged even if you want to.

As for Sun Shangxiang and Lao Fu Zi, neither of them had any hard crowd control, and the four members of Miracle Team were completely outplayed. Luna even managed to get a triple kill with her teammates. After killing the four, the opposing team directly tower-dived and killed Ying Zheng, and pushed down the second mid-lane tower. Before the five members of Miracle Team could respawn, they also pushed down half of the high ground tower's health. Fortunately, the opposing team ran out of minions, otherwise their crystal would probably be in danger.

Looking at the black screen, Han Cheng felt a pang of regret. Was he about to lose?
