【Gao Qiao Gao all】Youth

The lights of the lighting came on slowly, and the half-darkness concealed the lost sobs of the Samsara home audience, which was in stark contrast to the laughter and celebration of the Tiny Herb fans in the visiting team stands.

The contestants from both sides walked out of the competition seats one after another, but Gao Yingjie couldn't help but turn his gaze to the holographic projection area in the center of the arena.

The last images of the game are gradually fading—the devastated battlefield has returned to calm at this time, his Mu En is standing on the hillside by the river with a broom, looking into the distance thoughtfully, while the knight is alone holding a sword Holding up the shield in one hand, as if the battle was not over, he continued to faithfully guard the side of the magician.

He was a little lost in thought.

Last year, it was here that Tiny Herb failed again in the semi-final stage. He could only listen to the captain sending blessings to the winning opponent in despair, and secretly regretted his helplessness.It was also on this venue that he watched Qiao Yifan lift up the championship trophy with mixed feelings, taking the lead in realizing their common dream.These memories are full of bitterness and unwillingness, but they also give him the motivation to move forward persistently.

Now that he has finally crossed this step, besides the joy of victory, Gao Yingjie also feels relaxed.

To him, and to Tiny Herb, this year has a different and extraordinarily significant meaning from before.

The old and the new are alternately transitioned, and the tactical core is re-established.He gradually took over the responsibilities once shouldered by the captain, leading the whole team to fight on the field, and Team Tiny Herb also adjusted the existing tactical system around his style of play.

In the process of repeated running-in, both he and Tiny Herb experienced a season of ups and downs: the worst first half in history, the ensuing turbulent attacks, successive encounters with powerful enemies in the knockout rounds, and the curse of falling into the semi-finals... But all of this, looking back at this moment, is nothing.

The projection disappeared, and the venue was brightly lit.

It seemed that the last trace of confusion in his heart had completely dissipated, and Gao Yingjie's chest suddenly became clear.

Next, it's the finals - he will still do his best, but he will not be afraid of any ending.

Tiny Herb didn't hold a group celebration after the game. Those who were hungry went to have a simple supper, and those who were tired went back to the room directly to sleep.

Gao Yingjie was lying on the bed with his mobile phone, wondering if it would be too late to call Qiao Yifan, when the ringtone suddenly rang.

"Hey, Yifan? Why don't you take a break?" After saying this, there was surprise in his tone.

"I'll be there in a while. Is it convenient for you to talk over there, don't disturb me?"

Hearing what he said, Gao Yingjie was a little puzzled: "No problem, Brother Bin seems to have gone to discuss something with the captain and hasn't come back yet. Yifan, what's the matter with you?"

"No, no, I just want to say congratulations to you, M, V, P." Qiao Yifan said in a brisk tone, and the last word was intentionally word-for-word, which sounded very playful.

The wonderful performance of [-]v[-] in the group arena, and the performance of the core level in the team competition, especially the successful tearing of the opponent's priest from the team, thus establishing the victory for the team-then the most valuable player of this round , it was undisputedly awarded to Gao Yingjie.

MVP's face turned red: "Hey...thank you."

Considering that Xingxin will have a match with Lan Yu tomorrow night, the two of them just chatted briefly.

"I wish you all good luck." Afraid of putting pressure on Yifan, Gao Yingjie didn't express his wish, but it's fine if he wants it.

"Well, see you in City B." Qiao Yifan's answer was quite subtle.No matter what, the first game of the finals will be held at Tiny Herb's home court. Of course, he hopes to be an opponent rather than a spectator.

Gao Yingjie keenly comprehended the other party's implication, nodded in response, "It's a deal."

After finishing the call, he stared at the ceiling for a long time. It would be great if he could really meet Yifan in the finals.

The next night, Blue Rain's third round against Happy started on time.

It is related to the ownership of another ticket to the finals, and this duel between the two teams has attracted much attention.

But no one in Tiny Herb was watching the live broadcast, because they had quickly entered the rhythm of preparing for the battle: flying back to City B in the morning, resting a little in the afternoon, doing some recovery training, and replaying after dinner.As for the game situation of potential opponents, there is naturally a technical department responsible for videotaping, and it will be sent to the team along with other materials that have been sorted out the next morning.

The game against Samsara has a lot of content, and the replay time is correspondingly long, but from the beginning to the end, everyone is very focused.After Wang Jiexi said "Let's go here", everyone realized that more than three hours had passed.

"The fight over there should be over." Still concerned about the result, Liu Xiaobie took out his mobile phone in the conference room, and quickly opened the official website of Honor, "Yo, sure enough."

The ears of Gao Yingjie on the opposite side perked up, and Liang Fang, who was impatient, kept urging: "Hey, don't be tricky!"

"That's right, hurry up, who will win!" Yuan Baiqing's patience was not very good.

Liu Xiaobie rolled his eyes at the two impatients: "Come on, what's the rush, the internet speed is not good, and the page is still being browsed."

"Captain, borrow it." Xu Bin greeted Wang Jiexi next to him, and unhurriedly used the computer in the tactical meeting room to connect to the webcast.

On the projection screen, Blue Rain's captain, Yu Wenzhou, was answering reporters' questions with a smile.

"...So, in general, I think Blue Rain's defensive end has still maintained a consistent level, at least three times it has effectively resolved the opponent's fast break. But in terms of offense, we did encounter relatively big troubles. The exchange that the opponent played in about 7 minutes was very beautiful, and being forced to adjust tactics on the spot has a great impact on our offensive efficiency."

There are no newcomers here, and they all know the final result of the competition after observing their words and expressions.

Gao Yingjie breathed a sigh of relief quietly, feeling like his dream had come true for a moment.However, he immediately noticed that Wang Jiexi and Xu Bin were staring at the screen thoughtfully, so he quickly calmed down and listened carefully to Yu Wenzhou's continuation - if the speech of this master tactician was regarded as a simple scene, but A lot of valuable information will be missed.

"Xingxin's offense was excellent today, and the defensive deployment was also very meticulous. The two successful interceptions against Shaotian caused obvious obstacles to our offensive end. Of course, this is not an excuse for our failure. All of Blue Rain We all tried our best, until the last moment we still had the possibility to win, it's just that Xingxin did a better job."

Afterwards, the reporters asked some routine questions, and Yu Wenzhou naturally dealt with Yu Ru.On Tiny Herb's side, a few people who were more concerned about tactics also took the opportunity to have a brief exchange.

"Xingxin's defensive arrangement this time needs to be carefully analyzed," Wang Jiexi said.Tiny Herb's first round is a home game, and breaking the opponent's defense is crucial if they want to get off to a good start.

"Understood." Xu Bin nodded clearly, "The Duizi mentioned earlier should also be very important."

"Well, there's still the endgame style of play." Gao Yingjie added softly.

While they were discussing briefly, the interview session over there had come to an end.

"I am proud of the performance of the players, and I wish Xingxin a better performance in the finals."

Yu Wenzhou's words here, even if it is for the press conference, it also marks the end of the Blue Rain team's season.The next stage completely belonged to the two teams that entered the finals.

For the finals, the momentum of external reports and publicity is as enthusiastic as ever.

From the perspective of the team, if Xingxin defends the title, it will be another team that won consecutive titles after Excellent Era and Samsara; and if Tiny Herb wins, it will win the third championship trophy in the club's history. Tied with Excellent Era.

And the core figures of the two teams, Glory Textbook and Magician, have won a total of six championships in the past ten seasons. Looking back at their past glorious history can occupy two full pages.In addition, Tang Rou and Liu Xiaobie's hand speed competition, Fang Rui and Xu Bin, who is the ugliest player, Qiao Yifan and Gao Yingjie's competition between friends, etc., were all discussed and voted on. Yes, it's in full swing.

In addition, in the game, the guilds on both sides also routinely competed.Zhongcaotang's advantage lies in its great influence and deep foundation, but Xingxin's side has added Old Wei to sit in charge, so it doesn't really fall behind.

But all of the above has nothing to do with the players who are about to participate in the competition.Both Xingxin and Tiny Herb adopted closed training and devoted themselves to preparing for the battle.The frequency of contact between Gao Yingjie and Qiao Yifan was also reduced to the minimum - they will soon meet in such an important arena, and they both want to face each other in the best condition.

Time passed in such a big environment, and the moment everyone was looking forward to finally arrived.

The last big show of the No.11 season kicked off at Team Tiny Herb's home stadium, and the venue that could accommodate [-] spectators was full that night.

In the player channel, players from both sides have lined up and are waiting to enter.

"How does it feel to finally be in the final again?" Ye Xiu, who was in the lead, asked Wang Jiexi.

"It's no different from last time." Wang Jiexi replied flatly.The person who made it to the finals four times had never seen anything before, and this level of trash talk just fell out of his ears.

"It's been several years, can it be the same?" Ye Xiu smiled.

"That's right, Feng Shui takes turns." Wang Jiexi's expression remained unmoved.

"Go, brother's team is very good at defending the championship." Ye Xiu said.

The captain was at the head, followed by the deputy team, and they lined up in this way. Gao Yingjie and Qiao Yifan happened to be standing in the corresponding positions.The two looked at each other, feeling a little overwhelmed, and didn't know what to say for a while.

When they first entered the training camp, they shyly shared some naive and simple dreams: becoming the main force of Team Tiny Herb, reaching the finals, and winning the championship.However, the two failed to realize these wishes together in the end, and after that season ended, they embarked on completely different paths.

In the past three years, many things have happened, there have been many changes and many growths.

Although they are no longer teammates, but the road to glory and the same goal by different routes, they finally stood here together in another way.

"I really didn't expect..." Gao Yingjie felt that he couldn't stay silent so stupidly, but his mind went blank with excitement, so he honestly expressed his feelings at the moment, "We will really meet in the final."

"Hmm..." Qiao Yifan was also emotionally agitated. He met his gaze and nodded, "I didn't think of that either."

Then both fell silent again.Obviously there are always endless things to say, but this meeting is extraordinarily stupid.

"I'm really worried about your core trash talk level in the future." Fang Rui said to Xu Bin bluntly.Of course he knew that the two of them were not joking, but the match was imminent, so it was necessary to have some gunpowder.

"Hehe, your team's tradition has to be maintained." Xu Bin replied, glanced meaningfully at the crowd of Xingxin, and his eyes fell on Baozi.

Fang Rui quickly realized what the other party meant. After thinking about it, Old Wei had retired, and Ye Xiu was probably the same. In the future, he would have to partner with that steamed stuffed bun who would kill the enemy indiscriminately when he spammed.

Su Mucheng on the side suddenly smiled and said, "Then should I work hard and learn?"

"Pfft..." Liu Xiaobie couldn't hold back his laughter this time, beauty, can you pay attention to your image?

Ye Xiu complained: "Master Jiexi, we're already in the finals, why isn't your team looking murderous?"

This kind of innocuous mockery Wang Jiexi just ignored, but Xu Bin behind him smiled and continued: "Ye Shen was joking. Good steel is used on the blade, and Tiny Herb's murderous spirit is reserved for the real chapter on the field."

"These few words of yours are pretty good, much more pleasing to the eye than Wang Dayan's poker face."

After taking Xu Bin's words, he nodded indifferently to Liu Xiaobie, and when his eyes turned to Gao Yingjie who was the fourth in Tiny Herb's lineup, Ye Xiu made an exception and praised: "Little friend! It’s been a pretty good few games.”

"Hey...thank you, senior." Gao Yingjie was a little surprised and a little embarrassed when he taunted him and suddenly changed his style.Suddenly seeing Qiao Yifan looking at him and giggling, he couldn't help but wrinkled his face at him.

Qiao Yifan was amused by this little gesture, as if he had temporarily released his speechless state, he asked naturally, "How did you rest last night?"

"It's pretty good. How about you, did you sleep well?" Gao Yingjie said.It is always hard to avoid going to the away game.

"It's pretty good, I don't have insomnia." Qiao Yifan replied with a smile.

Looking at the two people who were just talking like this, Ye Xiu suddenly expressed emotion, with a hint of seriousness in his tone: "The juniors in the team have grown up, so you should probably retire, Big Eye? Young people."

Wang Jiexi, who had been too lazy to talk to him all this time, turned his face and glanced at him, and said, "When the time comes, I will let nature take its course." After a pause, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Why don't you let Xian?"

Ye Xiu smiled: "What are you talking about? Brother is someone who won't get tired of fighting for another ten years."

Wang Jiexi knew in his heart that he was going to retire after this year, so he just smiled, didn't expose it, and didn't answer any more questions.

At this time, the staff began to call the players of the two teams to come out. As the visiting team, Xingxin took the first step according to the rules.

"Come on, go all out." Qiao Yifan looked at Gao Yingjie with an extremely serious tone.

"Well, come on!" Gao Yingjie nodded vigorously, but he didn't wish the other party good luck like before.

They will finally stand together on the long-awaited arena, represent their respective teams, and compete for the supreme glory.
