Li Huailin understood. If it was the government's support, there was no need for Yin Xiaoyin to be in such a hurry. Withdrawing from the finals and then falling out with the competition committee, company, and alliance seemed a little impulsive. Even if the other party had a powerful background, this was too radical. This made Li Huailin think that there must be something urgent that caused this matter to happen.
At this time, Li Huailin thought of something. It was the huge profit that he had neglected – the gambling. Because of the cancellation of the competition, the gambling funds were refunded. Could it be because of this? Therefore, Li Huailin immediately looked into the situation in this area, and it turned out to be true.
As everyone knew, in the match between Yin Xiaoyin and Magic Kitchen, most people guessed that Magic Kitchen would win, so the odds between the two were simply terrible. Yin Xiaoyin's odds flew to the highest point of 1: 3.55. Then, Li Huailin discovered the problem and threw in a huge sum of money, directly lowering Yin Xiaoyin's odds to 1: 3.05. It was obvious that if Yin Xiaoyin won, this sum of money would be more than tripled.
Without even thinking, Li Huailin knew where this sum of money came from. Li Huailin looked into it, and sure enough, before this, this account had been betting on Yin Xiaoyin's victory. In just a few matches, it had already earned hundreds of millions. This matter finally connected.
Ming Yang Group had the intention to join the company alliance, so they found Yin Xiaoyin. According to the original plan, they would use all means to make Yin Xiaoyin the champion, and then cause trouble. At the same time, they could also obtain a large sum of money through the gambling. But soon, there were problems with the plan. First, Yin Xiaoyin's semi-final opponent rejected their request. Then, Magic Kitchen might also reject their request, and it was also temporary. At this time, Ming Yang Group's funds had already entered the market, and it was too late to withdraw. They could only implement the temporary plan, which was this withdrawal.
This kind of messy plan and connection with the gambling was obviously not the style of the government. Li Huailin could basically confirm that this was the personal behavior of Ming Yang Group or a large number of companies led by Ming Yang Group that wanted to join the company alliance. From the current situation, the plan was going well. The funds were coming back, and they had earned several times the original amount. According to the current situation, the pressure on the competition committee and the company alliance was huge. Maybe they could really pry open the door of the company alliance. However, this had nothing to do with Li Huailin. He had already found what he wanted.
"If other companies enter the market, the domestic professional competition will probably be restructured. But this doesn't seem too bad." Li Huailin said with a smile. "Although it has nothing to do with the government, this matter can't be hidden from the government. In other words, it is tacit behavior. I don't want to do too much on my side. As long as Yin Xiaoyin can cooperate well, it will be fine."
Li Huailin also investigated the development of the Professional Gamers Alliance. This was a non-governmental organization, and the competition committee had nothing to do with the government. However, looking at the current development, the government was also ready to intervene. Li Huailin did not know whether this was because the interests of this group were too big, or because of the special nature of the game Heart of Glory. After all, regarding the previous investigation of the helmet, Fu Weiwei and the others should have already reported it. This time, however, it was probably just a test, and they would not act so quickly.
In any case, after knowing the whole situation, Li Huailin breathed a sigh of relief. It should not be a big problem. Looking at the time, it was a little late. It was almost time for the competition. The first match of the night was the match between Magic Kitchen and Li Huailin, so Li Huailin had to go online early.
After making a simple meal, Li Huailin immediately went online. Soon, he appeared in the lounge. At this time, Li Jianyi had also returned and was in a meeting with the people in the company.
"Huailin, it's good that you're here." Li Jianyi nodded.
"How's the situation?" Li Huailin went up and asked.
"It's very complicated, but the committee has stalled it. Now, let's finish the finals first. The situation after that will be more troublesome. I guess I will have to spend the next few days in endless meetings." Li Jianyi smiled bitterly and said, "No matter what, let's focus on the competition first. Huailin, Magic Kitchen should be fine, right?"
"I'm sure there will be no problem on my side," Li Huailin said. "Xiao Yu's side is probably a little troublesome."
"We're so far apart." Li Jianyi nodded, then turned to Feng Yiliu and asked, "Xiao Yu, do you have a chance?"
Feng Yiliu did not say anything and directly shook his head. "From the match with Everlasting Unchanged, it can be seen that Worlds Apart is even more powerful. Moreover, I don't think he used his full strength. He should have completed his second career advancement, but he did not use any new skills in the competition. It seems … he has kept all of them."
After saying that, Feng Yiliu looked at Li Huailin. It was obvious that he was leaving it for someone.
"I'll take care of this guy," Li Huailin said with a smile. "But in the arena, it will be a little troublesome."
"Are you talking about the transformation skill that causes instant death?" Feng Yiliu said. "According to the rules, this skill cannot be used."
"Then, can the skill that causes instant death be used?" Li Huailin asked.
"…" Everyone stared at him for a long time without saying anything.
"I'm serious. Can it be used or not?" Li Huailin asked.
"Is there really such a skill? Big Brother, "Jiang Xueyi asked in disbelief." It's so amazing? The range is so large? "
"Yes, I'm not joking," Li Huailin said. "I know this is very troublesome, but can it be used or not?"
"This … I don't think it's a good idea." Li Jianyi said with a headache, "Although the competition does not restrict any skills, if you use it and kill all the audience, it's a little too …"
"According to the rules, there shouldn't be any problems," Feng Yiliu said. Wind Yiliu said, "Last time, the Transformation Skill was only disqualified because you died first, not because you killed the audience. However, the skill that killed all the audience members was indeed …"
Li Huailin also knew that it was a little troublesome. However, if he unsheathed the Celestial Sword, everyone around him would lose HP. A 240-yard range was basically enough to cover the entire arena. In other words, he could kill everyone in the arena within 20 seconds, except for the Undead. This was indeed a little too much. However, it was obvious that Heaven's End had a Celestial Sword. If he did not use the Celestial Sword, he could not guarantee that he could defeat Heaven's End. After all, Li Huailin did not know the abilities of his opponent's Celestial Sword. Li Huailin did not want to lose, so he was indeed in a dilemma.
"Let me discuss this with the competition committee," Li Jianyi suddenly said. "In any case, report this matter to them first. Let's see what they have to say. If they really can't use it, then we'll talk about it again."
"Mhm." Li Huailin nodded after giving it some thought.
As they spoke, the staff had found the lounge. Li Huailin's match was about to begin, so Li Huailin could go and prepare. Li Jianyi also took this opportunity to contact the competition committee to see what they should do.
Now that the audience in the arena had arrived, the host and guests also appeared on time. At this time, the audience also took the opportunity to pay attention to the situation of the two contestants withdrawing from the competition. Although there was no official announcement, they also heard some news from other channels.
"It's said that they're currently negotiating with the committee regarding the treatment of the A-rank and B-rank contestants …" The spectators in the stands were also discussing this matter. However, in the absence of an official statement, all of it was just speculation. However, the current situation was more favorable to Yin Xiaoyin. According to the current information, A-rank participants were considered to be a weak group. Naturally, the audience was more inclined to them. They were completely unaware of the chain of interests involved.
Amidst the sounds of discussion, the two contestants officially appeared on stage. When they appeared, they received cheers from the audience. Although both of them had entered the semi-finals because the other had withdrawn from the competition, no one doubted their strength. Even if they were to really fight, they believed that both of them would win. Some even said that the other side had chosen to withdraw from the competition because they were afraid of the two of them, so that they would not lose face.
On the big screen, Li Huailin's odds for this match were 1: 1.57. Magic Kitchen's odds were 1: 2.21. Li Huailin's odds were slightly higher. This meant that the majority of people were optimistic about Li Huailin's chances. The special guests were a bit more surprising. This was because there were still five people who lit up Li Huailin's lights at the same time. Li Huailin could only say that these people weren't stupid.
The two stood on the stage. As usual, the referee began to announce the rules. Li Huailin looked at Magic Kitchen across from him. The number of times the two of them had fought against each other was too few. In his memory, they had fought once last season. They didn't meet in the finals, and they didn't meet this season either. After not fighting for so long, he didn't even know what skills the other party had.
"You came to find me at noon because of that?" As he watched, Magic Kitchen suddenly spoke. "Don't underestimate me. I am a professional player."
"Oh?" As soon as Li Huailin heard this, he knew what Magic Kitchen was talking about. It was the matter of him reminding him at noon. However, Li Huailin didn't plan on saying anything. He smiled and said, "I don't know what you mean. I just said that I would wait for you in the semi-finals."
"That's why I came," Magic Kitchen said.
"You can't expect me to praise you, right?" Li Huailin said with a smile.
"Match start." At that moment, the referee beside him waved his hand and shouted.
"There's no need for praise. Let's fight seriously," Magic Kitchen said as he waved his staff and began to cast spells.
