For Love of the Game

"It's a pity for the Loong team to play 6V6. They obviously got a lineup with a series of bonuses, but they couldn't do any damage. But they took the lead by one game, and this loss is just to tie the score. The next decisive game is 1V1 Solo arena!"

"Actually, at this point, the lineups of both sides are already obvious. The YELL team has former PD members, Wayne, the world's 20th professional Qigong master, Bert, the world's No. [-] swordsman professional, and guns and guns Hum. Among the three, Wayne's level is relatively strong, and it is very likely to play defense, and Xiao Zhang of the Loong team has not played yet, so it is very likely that these two will meet in the defense stage."

Wayne quickly looked at his captain, and David gave him a reassuring look.

The PD team lost to God of War in the World Championship last year, and he also lost miserably to Xiao Zhang. The world ranking dropped from seventh to tenth all the way, and he almost retired in frustration.If he meets Xiao Zhang again this year, and his world ranking falls below ten, he really can't bear it.

"In the 1V1 arena, the Chinese team will either send Shen Huai to the field or the Conjurer to play. No matter which one, we will win. Don't be pressured, our lineup is already very strong. This time Wayne started, Bert defended Lai, Tim, don't leave too much behind."

Tim, who was named, immediately stood up straight. The gunner solo is relatively weak, but he is covered by two big gods, as long as he doesn't pull down too much, there will be no problem.

David patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry too much, Wayne will try his best to give you an advantage in the first round."

After analyzing the lineup of the American team, the commentator began to analyze the Chinese team. "The players on the Loong team who have not yet played include Liang Minghui, Xiao Zhang, and Sunny. Sunny plays black spells. The damage of black spells is very low. I'm afraid I can't fight."

In the last row of the auditorium, the players of each team were also talking about it.

"Why didn't the Chinese team fight to save the hostages just now? They don't have to fight in 1V1 at all!"

"Not necessarily, with Xiao Zhang around, he might be able to 1V2, and WG's Liang Minghui is not easy to deal with."

The man laughed, "1V2? Are you kidding me? This is a wild card game, not your domestic trash-level professional league, and the US team is not your trash team. No matter how strong Xiao Zhang is, it's impossible. 1v2."

The person who spoke first was so angry that his face turned green, he snorted and walked away.

The players of the Japanese team asked in a low voice, "Captain, do you think the Chinese team still has hope of winning?"

Takumi Miura is really a very cautious person, "There is definitely hope. Xiao Zhang can't 1V2, but can 1V1.5, plus Liang Minghui, maybe the two of them can end the game."

Vice-captain Yoshino Naoki hung Lang and lay on the railing, "This finals is really boring. Why is the Chinese team so unmotivated this year?"

"Ashu, do you feel something is wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Yoshino Naoki leaned on his chin and tilted his head to look for a long time.

Miura narrowed his eyes slightly, "As you said, the Chinese team played very unmotivated today. After defeating the ace combination of David and Gina in 2V2, shouldn't the morale be high and pursue the victory? And knowing that there is not enough When the players are playing 1V1, they should try their best to win in 6V6, but they played very casually in this 6V6, and the players didn't look sad when they lost, just like..."

"Like what?"

"Like they have other cards."

In the waiting room of the Loong team, everyone was waiting for Shen Huai to arrange the playing order. Xiao Zhang is too dangerous now, but unfortunately, there is no one else who can play except him.

Liang Minghui knew that Shen Huai's advantage was not in defending the ring, but he won the first ring with an absolute advantage at the beginning, creating an advantage for the next round and at the same time damaging the morale of the enemy.In fact, it was the best arrangement for Shen Huai to start the game with Xiao Zhang guarding the ring, but with Xiao Zhang's current appearance, how dare he let him guard the ring?It would be fine if he and Shen Huai could win the ring, but if there was even a single mistake that left even 1% of the blood on the players of the American team, Xiao Zhang might cause them to lose the game.

It's not that he scares himself, it's really how Xiao Zhang feels to him now.

He didn't seem to care about winning or losing, world rankings, only Shen Huai in his eyes.

Liang Minghui volunteered and said, "Yu Shen, if you can trust me, I will stand by."

Shen Huai nodded gently, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Then, he turned his head to look at Xiao Zhang, and said coldly, "Shen Xiao, are you satisfied with the first round?"

Liang Minghui was startled, he didn't expect Shen Huai to let Xiao Zhang open the game.On second thought, this is fine, Xiao Zhang is like a landmine that could explode at any time, it is better to explode before their eyes than not knowing when it will explode.

Xiao Zhang grinned, showing his big white teeth, "Of course, as long as I play in the ring, I can do whatever."

"I hope you don't forget that you are Chinese and a member of Team Loong."

Xiao Zhang's gaze changed slightly, but soon returned to normal, "How could I forget?"

The two teams submit the list of players for the final match——

Team YELL: Wayne, Tim, Bert.

Team Loong: Xiao Zhang, Shen Huai, Liang Minghui.

The fans at the scene started booing one after another, and the commentator was shocked, "Oh, my God! Shen Huai actually played! I almost forgot that there is another Shen Huai in the Loong team! In fact, I think that a professional support may not be inferior to an amateur DPS However, judging from the order of playing, Shen Huai is the second player to play, and there are great gods to take care of him before and after, so the pressure should not be too great. His opponent Tim, the second player of the YELL team, is also a rookie. They are similar, and the first match is the qigong master confrontation between Wayne and Xiao Zhang!"

Wayne's face turned pale, and David's face was also ugly. He deliberately arranged Wayne in the first round to avoid Xiao Zhang, but who would have thought that Xiao Zhang would also be in the first round?If I had known earlier, Wayne should have played the second round!

David quickly hugged Wayne, "Don't be afraid, Wayne, Xiao Zhang is not a god, we have seen your efforts this year, you can defeat him, we believe in you."

Wayne hugged David tightly and nodded.

Xiao Zhang also left the waiting room. From here to the stage, he had to walk through a long corridor and a flight of stairs. Fans from foreign countries shouted his name, and the exciting voice came clearly through the stairs.

He entered the sound-proof room, adjusted his talents at will, and clicked on the challenge.

The atmosphere at the scene was in full swing, everyone was waiting for the god-level qigong master to show his amazing moves, and the commentator also looked excited, "This match is a qigong master's professional infighting, and Wayne's qigong master is a boxer school. And Xiao Zhang is a qigong school. Since the debut of the qigong master profession, Xiao Zhang and Hu Nana’s qigong masters have been the representatives of the qigong school, among which Xiao Zhang is the most! Last year in the World Championship, Wayne lost twice to Xiao Shen, the world ranking has also slipped from seventh to tenth, this year the two of them meet again, I wonder if Wayne can get revenge this time!"

When the countdown ended, Xiao Zhang jumped onto the ring and went straight to the center of the ring.

He ran fast, and the enthusiasm of the audience also increased. Only the Chinese team members in the waiting room looked dignified. Whether Shen Huai's last words were listened to by Xiao Zhang or not, they will soon know.

"I will keep this combo firmly in mind." Xiao Zhang said something unclear.

Wayne's boxer had just emerged, and Xiao Zhang hit a set of Dragon Tiger Catch and Thunderbolt Palm with lightning speed. Before the first skill hit Wayne, the second skill was already out of his hands. The crushing at high speed is even more confident in his own strength.

Wayne didn't react at all, it was already too late when he saw Xiao Zhang, two skills knocked him into the air suddenly, Xiao Zhang moved towards him while firing three qigong cannons, when Wayne landed, Xiao Zhang Zhang Ye just ran in front of him and opened the five-element array!

Wood→Fire→Earth→Gold→Water!The firing speed of the five vitality bombs does not exceed 1.5 seconds, and the average skill is less than 0.3 seconds, and the tricks hit, and the bullets are all fired!

Less than 5 seconds after the two met, Wayne lost 40% of his HP before he even had time to throw out a single skill!Such explosive output and precise hit rate make people excited!

The commentator shouted excitedly, "Xiao Zhang made two moves in a row, directly pressing Wayne to half blood! Every time I watch Xiao Zhang's game, I feel that it is completely different from other players' games. As long as he is there It will never be boring, even Guan He can’t compare to Guan He’s ability to mobilize the audience’s emotions! He is so powerful, he makes me as energetic as if I drank ten cups of black coffee!"

Si Jin let out a long sigh of relief, "So that guy Xiao Zhang is just playing lip service, but he doesn't intend to lose at all, does he?"

Luo Lie was also relieved, "After all, this year's wild card competition is related to the player's world ranking. The world's number one qigong master King just retired last year. Xiao Shen should also want to take this opportunity to get a wave of rankings, right?"

Tao Lele pursed her mouth, "Why were you so fierce before? They were all in the same team and lived in harmony. Wouldn't it be nice to win the victory together?"

Wayne made a backhand move of Tiger Zong, the action of Tiger Zong is similar to grabbing, and it is also the starting action of a boxer in close hand-to-hand combat. He shot a little late, and thought that Xiao Zhang had already escaped, but he didn't expect this move to hit. up!

The opportunity was so rare that he didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately followed up with a combo of moves—like a broken bamboo, sitting in the mountains and rivers, the two skills pressed Xiao Zhang to the ground, and then he raised his fist and unleashed the big move Meteor Fist!

"Oh! It's a pity, it's a pity, Xiao Zhang is so careless, run away!" Si Qianjin has already entered the state, and he is worried about Xiao Zhang, but Guan He behind him frowned slightly.

The commentator also said regretfully, "Boxers have a lot of combined skills. Once they are close, the crispy profession can hardly escape the fate of being beaten to half blood. Xiao Zhang should want to fight again here, but Wayne's reaction speed is faster than It was much faster last year, and he knew that there were not many chances of catching Xiao Zhang, so he threw out his big move directly! This set should be able to get back the disadvantages at the beginning."

Xiao Zhang's blood volume was directly hit to 50%!He immediately opened Yunlongyou to distance himself from Wayne.

The commentator didn't dare to blink his eyes, "Qigong masters of the Qigong school are more flexible than boxers. Wayne needs to use Huanglong's probing claws to grab it. If he can catch it, it is very likely to cripple Xiao Zhang, but if he can't catch it, The CD of Huanglong's probing claw is very long, and he will probably be kited by God Xiao next!"

A thin layer of sweat oozed from Wayne's forehead. The scene of losing to Xiao Zhang twice last year was still vivid in his memory. He really didn't want to lose again, let alone lose to Xiao Zhang.

Seeing his hesitation, Shen Huai couldn't help asking, "Why is this Wayne so timid? Isn't he the tenth qigong master in the world?"

Si Qianjin hesitated for a moment, "Last year in the World Championship, PD lost to God of War. Xiao Zhang played a 6V6 game, and a 1V1 game. The 6V6 mode is an offensive and defensive battle. Xiao Zhang played a little more aggressively when he caught first blood at the beginning. Wayne took the head under the enemy's group fight. Don't you know Xiao Zhang's temper? After that, Wayne was targeted for killing. God of War's team battle style is five guarantees and one, and the PD also took him No way, Wayne was killed five times by him in that one game."

"Later in the 1V1 defending stage, the two met again. Xiao Zhang took advantage of his long-distance and deliberately delayed the game time to consume Wayne's mana, and then killed him with two combos. In fact, Xiao Zhang There is no need for Zhang's strength to do this, he just wants to embarrass Wayne. The CD of Huanglong's probing claws is very long, and it is not bad to play it twice in a ring, but Wayne released five times in that one, and Neither hit. The data in these two games was too bad, which lowered his KDA for the whole year, and made him drop directly from seventh in the world to tenth in the world. After the game, Xiao Zhang seemed to mock him. Wayne was hit hard, last year it was reported that he wanted to retire, and David chased him all the way to the airport to stop him."

Shen Huai nodded slightly, this matter seemed to be Xiao Zhang's style.

Luo Lie suddenly shouted, "Shoot, shoot!"

On the viewing screen, the boxer finally aimed at the direction and threw out the yellow dragon's probing claw, and his right hand turned into a golden dragon and slammed towards the qigong master.

Xiao Zhang rested his hand lightly on the keyboard, and all the words he heard echoed in his ears.

"Xiao Zhang, God of War will not be able to participate in the World Championships this year. The wild card game is your only chance. With Yushen here, the Chinese team will definitely win the championship, so don't mess with him, let him give you a chance to play , as long as the Chinese team wins enough, even if you don’t play against South Korea, you can still stabilize the world ranking.”

"I guarantee that if Sun Yuan is replaced, Team Loong will be No.1 in this year's Wild Card Tournament."

"If we win, Team Loong will be the champion in the first year of the wild card reorganization? Shen Huai will be the captain of the champion team?"

"The Chinese team wants to win the championship, and it must be the champion. If you lose, Shen Huai, you have to take full responsibility."

He snorted coldly.

What world ranking, what champion captain, he has been having the same nightmare since the day the wild card game started.

He dreamed that the Loong team won, everyone returned to China, and fans came to pick them up at the airport, but those fans shouted Cang Yu's name, and the word "Yu Shen" echoed throughout the pick-up hall, e-sports news, Weibo The blog headlines were full of words like "Shen Huai led the team to win the Wild Card Tournament Championship"!

No one remembers him, no one congratulates him, no microphone is placed in front of him, and no fans cheer for him!Everyone surrounded Shen Huai, even Chairman Pi and Chairman Hua regarded Shen Huai as a treasure in their hands, hoping that he could win the first world gold medal for China.

How scary, and what's even scarier is that everyone thinks it's normal!Si Qianjin, Liang Minghui, Zhang Jiayan, and even Guan He, all of them were bribed by Shen Huai, and they were able to accept all of this calmly, and even told their fans that all this was thanks to Shen Huai, and it was all due to Shen Huai .

He was so sick he was going to throw up!

Just thinking about such a scene gave him a stomach-churning pain.

With a mere world ranking, he will be able to come back next year, but if this nightmare becomes a reality, it will be his most painful torture!

is that wayneThe tenth qigong master in the world?It's really cheap for you. When you go up in the rankings, you must remember the kindness of the master!

Wayne's move of Huanglong Probing Claw was a little hasty, and he realized that the distance he expected was too small as soon as he made a move. With Xiao Zhang's current speed, he could completely dodge it. Stopped and hit him with a dragon and tiger attack, which just hit his paw!

This move of Huanglong Probing Claw directly caught Xiao Zhang in front of Wayne. Wayne couldn't believe that he hit Xiao Zhang twice. The experience of five misses last year seemed to be still in front of him. What is Xiao Zhang today? what happened?Does he want to wait until he has almost hit his blood volume before killing and humiliating him?

The anger in Wayne's heart surged up, and he directly pressed the shortcut key of the ultimate ultimate move - the unity of man and nature!

In the state of harmony between man and nature, every time the boxer releases his skills, he will briefly stun the enemy for 0.5 seconds. Wayne ruthlessly throws out a set of combos—looking back at the moon, blue dragon going out to sea, and the foot of Mount Tai!

The tricks were controlled, and Xiao Zhang couldn't move. He was picked up from the ground in a posture like a chick, and the next second he was slammed to the ground again.

——Spin back, punch down, sit on the mountain and river!

Wayne's fingers trembled a little. He couldn't help thinking about the past when he was facing Xiao Zhang. As a result, the speed of his moves was slower than usual. Xiao Zhang's control state was over. Come out, and it's empty!

"Tsk, rubbish!"

Xiao Zhang frowned, and quickly tapped the keyboard twice, a backward roll unexpectedly got under Wayne's fist, and he was killed on the spot.

The audience who watched the operation were stunned, and the commentator was also stunned, "This is, this is... Xiao Shen should have wanted to use the rolling to avoid Wayne's skills just now, but he accidentally rolled backwards!! It's really impressive Unbelievable! This is the first time I have seen Xiao Shen make this kind of mistake! But boxers are like this, as long as he is given a chance, he can make back all the previous disadvantages with one set of moves. Let them see his superb skills, but he seemed to take it lightly later, and was turned into victory by Wayne, which is really shocking!"

Wayne couldn't believe it, he actually won!He beat Xiao Zhang?

No, not right!

Maybe his mistake was not very obvious, but he knew very well that he didn't have time to show his full strength in this match. Rather than saying that he defeated Xiao Zhang, it is better to say that Xiao Zhang deliberately lost to him. That set of skills!It's like giving him a blow, telling him that he has the strength to beat himself, but he doesn't want to win this time.

In the waiting room of the Chinese team, everyone's faces were dark and ugly.

At the very beginning, they could understand that the Tiger Zong move was Xiao Zhang's momentary miss, but the later Huanglong's probing claw and the last move of back rolling were clearly giving away the head on his own initiative!The audience at the scene didn't expect this, not because they didn't see it, but because they couldn't believe that Xiao Zhang would lose the game on purpose, so they deluded themselves into understanding this as a mistake.

There were thumping footsteps outside the door, Xiao Zhang opened the door with a smile on his face, "I'm back, my dear teammates."

Si Qianjin grabbed his collar angrily, "Xiao Zhang, what do you mean? Are you fucking Chinese? You have conflicts with Yushen. Is it necessary to let the efforts of the whole team be buried with you?"

Xiao Zhang held his wrist with his backhand, his eyes were menacing and scary, "You are always against Shen Huai against me, now that I think about it, I cherish your efforts? Just kidding, isn't your Feather God very powerful? Let him fight , let him lead you to win! I want to see how powerful the golden thighs you are holding every day are!"

Wayne's blood volume has only dropped by 40%, and his general skill Wu Qin Xi is still useless, he can fill up his own blood milk with one mouthful, and Shen Huai faced an enemy in full state in the last scene!

Such a huge gap is impossible to recover.

Xiao Zhang pushed Si Qianjin's hand away, and walked in front of Shen Huai, "Hey, God Yu, why is your face so ugly? You have to work hard, I'm still waiting to see you turn the tide and shine."

Shen Huai's eyes seemed to be covered with ice, "The video of the wild card game will be released sooner or later. It can be seen that we are not the only ones who released the water. Do you think God of War can help you this time?"

"Heh..." Xiao Zhang raised his right hand, "Yu Shen, why can't I understand what you are talking about? Where did I let the water go? I have a very serious tendonitis in my right hand, and it just happened to relapse just now. You are so magnanimous, you should be able to Do you understand a player who played with an injury but lost the game?"

"Bah!" Si Qian was so angry that he couldn't speak clearly, "You don't train every fucking day and you have a hairy tendonitis!"

Shen Huai's face was tense and he didn't say a word.

Xiao Zhang breathed out, "Yu Shen, don't be so angry. After losing this game, the Chinese team is also No.2. Fengyue has already qualified for the World Championship. I'm not in your way, yes. Bar?"

Liang Minghui clenched his fists tightly.

According to the rules of the wild card competition, the country where the No.1 team is located can send three teams to participate in the World Championship, the second and third place can send two teams to participate in the World Championship, and one from each of the other countries. WG's domestic ranking is third, and God of War is fourth.

In other words, only if they get No.1WG in the wild card game can they get a place to participate in the World Championship, while God of War cannot participate in the World Championship no matter what ranking they get.

Thinking of Zhang Jiayan who carefully told him to pay attention to his body before leaving, and thinking of his figure jumping and jumping on crutches, Liang Minghui felt a heart-pounding pain.

Shen Huai suddenly took a step forward, this action was so sudden and full of momentum that Xiao Zhang couldn't help but take a half step back, but he quickly puffed up his chest, "What? Want to hit me? Come on! Who loves whose grandson!"

Liang Minghui immediately said, "Don't listen to Yushen, you will be disqualified for fighting during the competition, and Fengyue is going to play in the World Championship, so don't be as knowledgeable as him."

Shen Huai didn't say anything or do anything.

He just turned around suddenly and strode out the door. On the spectator screen, he could be seen running up the stairs in three steps in two steps. Before the referee allowed him to enter, he opened the door of the soundproof room.

At that moment, the lights in the soundproof room were blinded by the panic, and even his figure could not be seen clearly.

Song Xueyang suddenly remembered the scene when Shen Huai played for the first time in the group stage half a year ago.

A person who can't lose his temper doesn't mean he has no temper. He knows very well that Shen Huai has gone mad with anger.
