When it was time to praise, he had to praise. When it was time to criticize, he had to criticize without the slightest bit of politeness.
For the members of the clubs present at the moment, Number One's discipline was perhaps even more skillful than their coach, leader, and manager.
Before tonight's training began, it was him who easily ignited the fighting spirit of every member with a few words. But now, it was him who poured a bucket of cold water over the heads of the members who had just developed a little bit of complacency and pride, causing them to calm down again.
Indeed, only Number One could do such a thing, and he could do it well.
After calming down and thinking about it, the members of the clubs broke out in a cold sweat —
Because they realized that what Senior Number One said was not wrong at all.
Just the little improvement they had achieved in tonight's training …
In a top-notch competition like the World Finals, against the top teams like Korea's SSK, North America's Season, and Europe's Legend, it was still not enough.
Indeed.
Right now, they could at most ensure that they would advance to the next round of the group stage.
But once they reached the quarterfinals …
Perhaps they would have to face a tough battle.
Awareness of danger.
They could not be easily lost.
After giving everyone a wake-up call, Number One began to call out the specific members one by one:
"Ah Xing's performance these few rounds are not bad. You have indeed improved from before. You know when to be strong and decisive as a mid laner, and you dare to fight and fight. You have done well in this aspect. Continue to maintain it."
Morning Star, who had been praised, did not dare to show the slightest bit of joy. He hurriedly nodded his head solemnly in response.
The rest of the people were not so lucky.
"Ah Ye's ADC, did you feel wronged today? Don't think of using the opponent as an excuse to shirk your responsibility. Look for more reasons from yourself — do you really think that the current version is not friendly towards the bottom lane ADC position and that you can't do anything about it? Previously, your senior, Xiao Wu, has given you plenty of demonstrations. Have you forgotten all of it in just a few days? "
"Little Tian has finally displayed the strong offensive ability that a top laner should have, but it's not enough. Think about your last two rounds in the middle of the team battle. How is that what a well-developed top laner should be able to do? If you can only contribute that much to the team, it would be too much of a waste to let you take the kill. Even the North American top laner, Seven, can do better than you. "
"Ah Hang, don't just focus on hiding behind Little Tian. Mo Ganna beat you up so badly that you have to complain about it. Have you ever thought about why the fight turned out like that? Even if you're a functional mid-laner, you shouldn't be reduced to a support. If you can't even figure out this small problem, don't even think about crossing the threshold of that realm. "
His words were surprisingly harsh and merciless.
Shi Hang, Huangxue Nightsong, and Tian Tian could not help but sweat profusely. They could only nod and admit their mistakes as if they were pounding garlic. Meanwhile, the members of the other three clubs who were "lucky enough to escape" could not help but open their mouths wide. Their faces were filled with shock and bewilderment.
Although he was a specially hired coach …
However, Senior Number One always had a calm smile on his face even during training. He would only give a few words of advice when someone made a mistake. When had he ever been so strict and merciless?
It was rare for Senior Number One to be so strict. It was even more frightening than Senior Number Three, who they were usually so afraid of.
As for Lin Feng, he looked on as if nothing had happened. He felt that he was only here to be a sparring partner. No matter what, Senior Number One's scolding wouldn't fall on him.
But sometimes, people just couldn't be too complacent. It was easy for extreme joy to turn into sorrow.
In a moment of carelessness, a certain someone tripped over a member of the KG Battle Team beside him, causing him to stumble and almost fall to the ground. However, he had still caused quite a commotion, causing everyone around to look over in unison, including Number One.
Cold sweat immediately appeared on someone's forehead.
He braced himself and was about to meet Senior Number One's gaze, ready to be scolded. But in the next moment, he was shocked to find that Senior Number One's gaze only lingered on him for a moment before quickly moving away as if he didn't care.
Huh?
Someone was a little confused. His head was full of question marks.
Next to him, Shi Hang hurriedly pulled him back into the crowd. "What are you standing there for? You're lucky not to get scolded. Do you want to take the initiative and get into trouble?"
His old friend whispered a warning in his ear. At this moment, Lin Feng didn't feel too happy about having survived a disaster. Instead, he looked at Senior Number One in a daze.
He also vaguely felt it.
It seemed like …
Senior Number One's reaction wasn't quite right.
…
As for the managers, leaders, and coaches of several clubs, they were all on the side of the specially hired coach, No. 1. Listening to the latter's merciless criticism and reprimand of their club members, all of them nodded their heads in agreement. They did not forget to add in support from the side.
"Yes, yes, yes. Coach Number One is right!"
"All of you listen carefully. Don't be arrogant and impatient, understand?"
"Don't get cocky after one night of training!"
All of them thought it through quite clearly. Anyway, there was Coach Number One here now. Whatever he said was definitely not wrong. They could still relax. All they had to do was to help respond and go along with him. It was very effortless …
However, they didn't expect that Number One seemed to be unaware of the echoes of the big bosses of several clubs. He just glanced at the team members of several clubs.
"The new routines at the beginning are just things that were hastily made."
"Of course they are useful, but you also need to carefully deliberate and test them … But don't put too much thought on thinking about these things."
"In the end —"
"The first thing you should do is to further hone the things that you are already familiar with. From the beginning of the BAN selection, you are already playing a game with your opponents, including the tactical operation and the use of sudden changes in routines … These all require more effort and thought."
"The effects of these things you showed tonight are not satisfactory."
"In the last few days, you still have to practice."
As he spoke, Number One turned his head to look at the coaches and leaders of several clubs.
"Similarly … I also ask you to put in more effort."
His tone was flat and casual, without revealing too much harshness.
But as soon as these words came out, it had already made the faces of the higher-ups of several clubs flush red. They were so embarrassed and embarrassed that they could only hurriedly nod in agreement. The team members of the clubs next to them tried their best not to laugh out loud at their misfortune.
Their flattery had backfired.
Although they didn't know the reason, it was obvious that Senior Number One was not in a good mood tonight. Not only were the players who were going on the field for training reprimanded, but the coaches and leaders of their own clubs also did not escape.
