One Second Remember [Literature Building], providing you with exciting novels to read. The second round of the finals for groups C and D came to an end after another six matches on the second day.
For the majority of the Chinese players, they received an extremely heavy piece of news.
Dust- Mote from the Chinese LPL region had been eliminated from the group.
2 wins and 4 losses. Not only did Dust lose two matches to last season's world champion, SSK, but they were also unable to win a single match against another Korean team, Warrior.
Therefore, Group D consisted of two teams from the Korean OGN region advancing together. Dust became the first LPL team to be eliminated in the finals.
Such an outcome made countless local players feel extremely heavy and disappointed.
However, there was nothing they could do about it. This was because Dust's luck was just too bad this time. Being placed in Group D, the group of death, meant that their chances of advancing were slim. Therefore, the players of the national server were somewhat mentally prepared for this.
And at least —
There were still two teams in their LPL region that had successfully advanced from the group stage.
After the second round of group C and D ended, the entire group knockout stage of the finals came to an end.
Eight teams advanced to the top eight.
Group A's Legend and China's KG.
Group B's Korea's Fate and China's Hand of God.
Group C's North American SEASON and Taiwan's Assassins.
And then there were the two Korean teams in Group D, SSK and Warrior.
In this way, all the top eight teams were clearly presented to all the players on the server. Among the top eight teams, Korea's OGN division directly took up three spots, while Taiwan, North America, and Europe each had a team that qualified.
As for the Chinese LPL region, two teams had advanced, second only to the Korean region.
Therefore, the results of the Chinese LPL teams so far in this season's finals were quite gratifying.
Of course, this result was nothing. They only made it to the top eight.
The Chinese players knew very well that the matches after the top eight were the truly difficult ones.
At the same time, for the members of High School 13's esports club, the second round of the Shanghai Sixteen School League was not going to be easy either.
…
On the third day after the end of the World Finals, the eliminated pro players had regretfully embarked on their flights back home. The teams that had advanced to the quarterfinals were also about to fly to the next stop of the finals, Paris, France.
At the same time, in Shanghai, Shanghai, the second elimination round of the Shanghai Sixteen Schools League Tournament had arrived.
It was the last round of eliminations before the main competition.
The venue for this round of elimination matches was still the same as before, at the Internet Cow Internet Cafe.
After all, the Shanghai Sixteen School League was aimed at high school teams, and the academic problems of the participating students had to be taken into account. Therefore, the competition schedule could not be delayed too long. The first two rounds of knockout matches had to be resolved as quickly as possible.
Just like this time, the competition for the top 16 out of 32 will basically be held in four groups at the same time. The day of the competition will start in the afternoon and end in the evening. Then, the list of 16 teams will be decided.]
"It's said that once we enter the main competition, the competition venue will be higher —"
Yang Fan adjusted his glasses and said so.
Ren Rou nodded and added, "Yes, and from the top 16 onwards, there will be a special guest commentator who will be responsible for the analysis of the competition."
Liu Yue's eyes lit up. "That's so cool! I wonder if there will be a super popular LOL commentator. Maybe I can even get an autograph! Don't you think so, Brother Ouyang? "
Liu Yue subconsciously looked at Ouyang next to him. He was shocked to find that the latter's face was slightly pale and his lips were trembling.
"Brother Ouyang, what's wrong?"
Ouyang shook his head and said, "N-nothing, don't worry about me."
Ren Rou couldn't help but laugh at him. "What else can this guy do? He's just nervous because he knows he's going to play today. What a loser!"
Ouyang replied, "I'm not!"
Ren Rou curled her lips. "You think I can't tell what you're thinking? You're just afraid that you won't be able to perform well later. "
Ouyang's face turned red. He stammered for a long time before he finally said, "Damn, it's my first time playing in this competition.
"F * ck, it's my first time in this competition after all. It's normal for me to be nervous —"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Lin Feng and ask in a rare weak voice:
"Lin Feng, do you really want me to play today?"
Lin Feng was in high spirits today. When he heard Ouyang's question, he waved his hand without hesitation and answered in a carefree manner,
Of course! "
"Ouyang, you've been training with everyone lately. If you don't perform, what's the point of all that hard work?"
Ouyang was still hesitant. "But …"
Ren Rou bluntly cut him off. "What buts? You're a man, so why are you being so wishy-washy? If Lin Feng wants you to go, then go. I despise men with no confidence at all!"
Liu Yue also raised his fist. "Go, Brother Ouyang! I'm rooting for you!"
Wei Dong also laughed. "That's right. Ouyang, you have to give it your all. Today, it's all up to you."
As he listened to his companions' provocation and encouragement, Ouyang gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
"It's just a match. What's the big deal?
"Isn't it just a match? What's the big deal?"
"Just wait and see my performance!"
Tang Bingyao looked around and suddenly said, "There's a lot of people looking at us."
"There seems to be a lot of people looking at us."
… …
As a team that had advanced to the top 32, High School 13's Esports Club was arranged to be one of the first four teams in the first round. They were one of the first eight teams to compete in the top 32.
As a result, the team arrived at the Internet Cow Internet Cafe at 1 PM. It was already 1: 20 PM, and the match would begin in ten minutes.
Hearing Tang Bingyao's words, Yang Fan looked around in surprise.
"I think so."
Everyone subconsciously looked around. It was obvious that many players from other teams were looking at them. After being discovered by High School 13, those people hurriedly retracted their gazes. However, there were still quite a few people pointing at them and whispering to each other.
"Why are they looking at us?"
Lin Feng asked curiously.
Yang Fan adjusted his glasses and smiled. "It's probably because we won all three of our matches in the last round of the knockout stage."
As the team's top laner, Chen Ze nodded his head: "Yup. After all, we defeated High Seven's team and Tongji Affiliated High School back then. I reckon that this matter has already spread out, which is why it attracted the attention of other teams."
His words hit the nail on the head.
For the participating teams of this year's Sixteen School League, after entering the second round of the top 32, everyone began to collect information on other teams. The resume of High School No. 13's Esports Club was undoubtedly the most eye-catching.
They were a noob team that fell in the first elimination round last year.
They actually won all three matches in the first round?
They even beat High School 7 and Tongji Fu High?
Just the fact that they had defeated the Tongji Affiliated High School Team was already shocking enough. The Tongji Affiliated High School Team was a strong team that had made it to the semifinals in the last league tournament. How could this unknown High School Thirteen defeat a semifinalist team?
It was an absolute upset!
It was precisely because of this that the other teams in the top 32 would occasionally look at the members of High School 13's Esports Club with strange gazes. They would either probe or scrutinize them, but they had already started to view the latter as an opponent that they had to deal with carefully.
"Oh, I see!" Lin Feng said.
Then he laughed. "Hahaha, that's great! After all, we're going to win the Sixteen School Tournament! Hahahaha! "
Before he could finish laughing, his mouth was covered by the other members of the esports club. He could only let out muffled sounds.
"Stupid Lin Feng, can't you keep a low profile?"
"Yeah! You're attracting hate like this! "
"If the other teams hear us, we're done for!"
However, Lin Feng's bold and confident declaration had still been heard by some of the nearby teams.
Not far away, on the side of a certain battle team, a few members were originally discussing something in hushed voices. Upon hearing someone's laughter, a boy with a calm expression on his face frowned slightly, tilting his head to look in the direction of the laughter not far away.
Then he saw Lin Feng, whose mouth was covered by his teammates in a flurry.
"Who's that idiot?"
Ceng Rui, the support captain of the Shanghai High School team, frowned.
