Fortunately, Liu Yuntian reacted in time and used the title of "Passive Battle" to scare Li Huailin. After all, Li Huailin had just joined the professional scene. Everyone guessed that he wasn't very clear about the rules of the competition.
For the audience, this match was relatively satisfactory. After all, Li Huailin had won. Moreover, the last few seconds were very satisfying. For the professional players, this match was also very satisfying. At least Li Huailin had revealed some new skills, such as the Battle Aura Charge skill.
Warriors had quite a few Charge Skills. However, everyone noticed that Li Huailin's Charge came with a Control Skill. Hence, this was a relatively dangerous Skill. Fortunately, they had discovered it now. Otherwise, they would have been caught off guard. Skills like the Divine Spear, which could be used at the last moment, would have been too late. If only they had been able to prepare their Skills as soon as they saw Li Huailin's Charge.
The only people who weren't in a good mood were Sharpshooter and Dong Zhongxing. Rebirth had just come out of the lounge. Sharpshooter's face was as black as iron, and he had nowhere to vent his anger. On the other side, Dong Zhongxing angrily came looking for him.
"What the hell are you doing!" Dong Zhongxing vented all his anger on the God Spear on this side, "I spent so much money to train you, not to let you come on stage and lose face!"
Sharpshooter was also angry. However, he remembered that Dong Zhongxing was his boss, and he had indeed spent a lot of effort on him. So, he didn't say anything.
"Pack your bags and get out of here. You're fired!" Dong Zhongxing immediately said. He already knew that Sharpshooter wouldn't be able to get back up, so he didn't want to waste any more time.
"Fired?" Sharpshooter couldn't hold it in anymore. "I worked so hard in the competition, and now you want me to leave?"
"I haven't said anything about you smearing our ZTE Group in the media. If you can't control your mouth, then don't be a professional player. If you can't control your mouth, then be like Brother Awesome. If you don't have the ability, then don't talk nonsense." Dong Zhongxing also said everything. He didn't want to see Sharpshooter anymore.
"I …" Sharpshooter was really speechless. After all, he had lost.
"Boss, calm down. Calm down." Dong Zhongxing's voice was so loud, and he was at the entrance of the lounge. Several reporters had already noticed the situation here. Although it wasn't time for interviews, the reporters immediately surrounded them. Zhongxing's staff saw this and immediately pulled Dong Zhongxing away.
At this time, several players from the ZTE Group also rushed over from the lounge. They quickly persuaded Sharpshooter to leave, but it was a little too late. After all, the reporters had already seen it, so they naturally wrote whatever they wanted.
On the other side, Li Huailin was also being baptized by Li Jianyi. However, Li Jianyi was almost used to cleaning up after Li Huailin, so he just complained a little.
"I understand, I understand. I really won't cause trouble," Li Huailin said with a smile.
"Sigh …" Li Jianyi sighed. If Li Huailin didn't cause trouble, he wouldn't be called Li Huailin. After all, Li Huailin was the pillar of the company now. Li Jianyi had to work harder. "But that player called Sharpshooter is really … I think he's going to be useless. I heard from Dong Zhongxing that he's going to give up on him."
"Give up?" Li Huailin asked, "Is he going to be fired?"
"Yeah. After all, he's been criticized to this extent. For the company, there's no value in training him." Li Jianyi said, "You should also pay attention here. Last season, it was Taoist Zi Wei, and this season, it's Sharpshooter. Every season, you force a professional player to quit. It's not a good reputation for you."
"Well …" Li Huailin nodded slightly, then suddenly said, "How about our company poach Sharpshooter?"
"Huh?" Li Jianyi suddenly froze.
"Anyway, Dong Zhongxing is going to fire him. He's a free player now. We don't even need to pay a transfer fee. He's one of the top ten players in the country. It's free," Li Huailin said.
"Huh?" Li Jianyi thought it was true. It was great to poach a top ten professional player in the country for free. However, he thought it was not right. "Wait, you and him are in such a bad relationship. Let's not talk about whether he's willing to come over. Even if he's willing to come over, our company will never be at peace."
"There's no hurry …" Li Huailin thought about it and asked, "If he's fired by ZTE Group, can he still participate in the National Cup?"
"Of course he can." Li Jianyi nodded. "We've already decided on the players. Regardless of whether the other party has a company or not, he has to participate. Unless there's an emergency and he can't participate, he can get other S-class players to temporarily replace him. Speaking of which, you and him are teammates in the National Cup. Now that things have become like this, what if he gets picked on by the higher-ups in the National Cup? "
"Then there's no hurry." Li Huailin said, "Don't worry, this guy isn't that hard to deal with. Although his level of arrogance is similar to mine, his brain isn't that good. So I'm still confident in tricking him. When it comes to the National Cup, I'll train him a bit and he'll probably be able to settle it."
"…" Li Jianyi was speechless. However, he still nodded. "No matter what, don't mess around in the finals. Let's settle the finals here first before we talk about the rest."
"Got it, got it." Li Huailin immediately said.
While the two were talking, the match was still in progress. The players on the opposite side were Feng Yiliu and Lin Jing, who was also from Huaxing Corporation. This was a civil war between Huaxing Corporation. Moreover, the difference in strength between the two sides was indeed a bit large. Therefore, the audience's expectations were not high.
In a battle between a Warrior and a Cleric, it depended on the Cleric's healing ability and the Warrior's damage output. Clerics had very few crowd control skills. If they didn't learn skill books, they wouldn't even have a single one. In other words, they couldn't stop a Warrior from engaging in close combat. However, because of their powerful healing ability, they could still hold on for a while. Of course, it was impossible to compete with a Warrior in damage output. The situation was more or less to apply all sorts of debuffs to the Warrior, and then continuously heal themselves to see if they could wear down the Warrior before they died.
In this aspect, Lin Jing's healing ability could be considered to be very outstanding. Although it couldn't compare to Anran, it could be considered as the second highest healing ability among professional players. (After all, there weren't many players participating in the finals who knew how to heal. She and Anran were the only Clerics, and the Paladins were basically all attack type Paladins.) However, Feng Yiliu's damage output was really a bit too fierce. Although a dual-wielding Swordsman's single sword attack was lower than a dual-wielding Warrior's, their continuous damage output was definitely higher than a dual-wielding Warrior's. Therefore, when fighting against a Cleric with fewer crowd control skills, they always had an advantage. Not to mention that Feng Yiliu's equipment and skills were also a grade higher than Lin Jing's.
In reality, the battle situation was the same as what everyone expected. The two fought for about 3 minutes. On this side, Lin Jing was a bit unable to hold on. The amount of healing was too much less than the amount of healing. It really couldn't keep up. On the other hand, Feng Yiliu's health had only been whittled down to half, far from being in danger.
After a dozen seconds, Lin Jing finally fell. The referee immediately rushed over and announced Feng Yiliu's victory.
"That's good, that's good. A few of the higher ranked S-rank players are more reassuring." The audience also let out a slight sigh of relief. This was because the A-rank players in the finals were a bit too surprising. The first half of the tournament had just ended, and the top 8 consisted of Yin Xiaoyin, Magic Kitchen, Atomic Dust, and Li Huailin. Out of the four, two of them were actually A-rank players. The situation of two A-rank players entering the top 8 had never happened in the previous finals. The audience didn't know whether the A-rank players were stronger or the S-rank players were weaker. In short, they were a bit worried. However, looking at Feng Yiliu's performance, everyone felt that the A-rank players on this side were relatively lucky. After all, the competition in the first half of the tournament was slightly less.
After this match was the highlight of the round of 16, which was the match between Jade Emperor Summoner and Like Wind. Jade Emperor Summoner was tied for second place in the round-robin tournament, the same place as Heaven's Apart. Like Wind was ranked fifth. Because the three of them were tied for second place, he was ranked fifth because he lost one more match. Both of them were masters among masters. It was a pity that they met each other in the round of 16. It was obvious that one of them would have to stay in the top 16. No matter who it was, it would be a pity. However, there was nothing that could be done about it. After all, it was an elimination match.
However, this match didn't have much impact on Li Huailin because it was the second half of the tournament. In the second half of the tournament, there was a 99% chance that Li Huailin would meet Heaven's Apart in the finals. Therefore, it didn't matter who won. However, as a teammate who often teamed up, Li Huailin was more supportive of Jade Emperor Summoner. Like Wind, although he was from the ZTE Group, he wasn't as annoying as the Sharpshooter. He could be considered a guy who could communicate with others. Good luck to him.
This match was also a bit of a headache for the audience. Because the two of them were similar in strength, it was very difficult for the betting department to make a decision. Until the start of the match, the winning rate of the two rose alternately. In the end, they both stopped at about the same level. However, due to the fact that the Knight had an advantage over the Mage, the support for Jade Emperor Summoner was slightly higher in the end.
Amidst the cheers of the audience, the early duel between masters finally began.
