In the end, they lost the semi-finals 0-2, narrowly missing out on a place in the finals. For the defeated Tongji University team, it was undoubtedly a heavy regret.
Especially in the early stages of these two games, they played very well and the rhythm was very smooth. But every time in the middle of the game, the opponent seized the opportunity to counterattack and turn the tables.
"To put it bluntly, it was still a bit too hasty —"
At the end of the first round of the game, West Wind in the commentator's seat couldn't help but make an evaluation of the second game just now.
"The lineup that Tongji brought out in the second round … was still a bit too hasty."
"The fault tolerance is low."
Indeed.
That kind of lineup was almost determined to cut off all means of retreat in the early stage until they had a big advantage. Although the offensive and aggressive nature was strong, once the rhythm was interrupted … there was basically no possibility of recovery.
"But Tongji can't be blamed." Mo Sheng next to him shook his head to express a different view. "If it was a conventional lineup and slowly competing for comprehensive strength, Tongji's chances of winning would only be lower."
After all, in terms of comprehensive strength, Fudan was almost unmatched in the Shanghai University Esports circle.
If they wanted to win against Fudan, they had to be ruthless and take risks.
It was a pity that Tongji's luck was not good and they didn't win.
"In fact, the first round was really a pity." West Wind smacked his lips, still recalling the previous first battle between Tongji and Fudan. "The first round was really close … If Tongji had won the group battle in the jungle, then it would have been stable for Tongji. And with the momentum of victory in the second round … I reckon that Fudan would really be in danger."
The analysis was not wrong.
But.
After all, the reality was like this and could not be changed.
On the stage, the players of the two teams who had finished the game got up and walked to the center of the stage to shake hands with each other to express congratulations and gratitude. Although there was regret in their hearts, the players of Tongji University still maintained their poise and etiquette. As the winner, the players of Fudan also expressed sincere praise for such a strong old opponent as Tongji.
In the end, the captains of both sides shook hands.
"These two rounds … were played well." Qiu Yijie looked at the old captain of Tongji and smiled. "We were almost in danger."
The old captain of Tongji shook his head indifferently. "Don't praise us. No matter how good we were, we still couldn't beat you in the end. After all, there is still a gap between the strength of our Tongji and Fudan University. Fighting like this … it's almost enough. "
His tone was relaxed and at ease, which was rare for him, and it caused Qiu Yijie, who was his old rival, to be a little surprised. As if he could see Qiu Yijie's puzzled expression, the old jungler of the same team suddenly chuckled.
"Actually, it doesn't matter —"
"In any case, regardless of whether you or us advance to the next round, we won't be the ones to take the championship trophy in the end."
"Turn back …"
"I'm waiting for the finals. I'll sit in the spectator's area and see how they're going to avenge our comrades."
Qiu Yijie suddenly came to a realization.
Then, he couldn't help but laugh bitterly, "You … you've been waiting for me here with bad intentions."
The old jungler of Tongji laughed with a face full of schadenfreude. "Of course. We've already fought against them in the group stage. I reckon that even if you guys go up against them, you'll at most last five minutes longer than us. It doesn't matter if you're a mid or carry, hahaha."
The laughter stopped.
Looking at Qiu Yijie who had just defeated his old opponent, the old captain of Tongji finally could not help but pat Qiu Yijie's shoulder sympathetically.
"Good luck."
"The finals … I'll do my best to look good."
He didn't mention the word "win."
He just said "do my best to look good."
Everything was already said without words. The two captains of Shanghai University's first-tier teams looked at each other again, appreciating each other's talents.
At the same time, the audience in the spectator's area who did not know the truth could not help but exclaim in their hearts when they saw this scene on the stage —
This was the demeanor that a strong team should have.
Look.
The captains of the two teams were obviously mortal enemies just a moment ago, but they could still get along and talk so harmoniously at this time. Although they could not hear what the two captains were talking about, it must be some jokes that should be made between friends and enemies, right?
Speaking of which —
Compared to Tongji and Fudan who got along so harmoniously with each other off the stage, then the two teams that were about to play in the second semi-final …
It was obviously completely different.
"Okay, the first semi-final is over. Next, the two teams in our second group are ready to go on stage."
"A new round of matches is about to begin!"
Zephyr, who was in the commentator's area, announced loudly into the microphone.
At the same time.
There was immediately a burst of enthusiastic applause and whistles from the spectator's area, mixed with screams and cheers. The movement was even more lively and noisy than in the first semi-final round.
Because the first group was purely watching the two strong teams fight in terms of strength.
And now, the second group was about to begin …
There was a lot of gossip between the core members of the two teams!
"It's finally starting, it's finally starting!"
"F * ck, I've been waiting for so long!"
Some of the spectators couldn't help but have their eyes shine with excitement. On one side was the captain of the foreign team, and on the other side was the god that was the core and soul of the financial team.
The two of them started a feud over a beautiful and moving girl.
Finally.
A good show was about to start on the competition field!!
Even the girls from dorm 312 couldn't help but feel a little excited. Zhou Xiaoyao even pulled on Tang Bingyao's arm and shook it.
"Hey, Tang Tang, it's starting!"
"Just you wait and see. Zou Siyuan really came prepared with our foreign team today. That Lin Feng of yours … tsk tsk, he might just suffer a big loss!"
Her tone was filled with gloating and anticipation.
Tang Bingyao, on the other hand, seemed to have turned a deaf ear to her best friend's words. At this moment, her gaze was completely fixed on the figure walking up the stage. She couldn't move her eyes away for even a moment.
… …
It was the same as the semifinals.
As the second group, the ten members of the financial team and the foreign team walked up the stage. They shook hands with each other to show their friendliness before returning to their respective seats.
As soon as they came up, the two teams glared at each other with a thick smell of gunpowder in their eyes.
Their gazes were filled with scrutiny and hostility.
Zou Siyuan, the president of the Shanghai Foreign Esports Association, shook hands with Dou Zi perfunctorily. His nonchalant expression immediately made the other members of the Shanghai Foreign Esports Association a little angry. Feng Tao, Shen Zhuang, and Qiu Le from Room 514 were even shouting, "F * ck that Zou guy!", "Who is he showing that arrogant face to?", "Lin Feng, beat him up!".
After a simple handshake, Zou Siyuan's gaze fell on Lin Feng. Zou Siyuan's expression turned cold as he looked at this damned guy who had practically swept his face to the ground during the quarter-finals. Zou Siyuan's expression turned gloomy.
"Don't think that just because you've gotten some results in the past that you can be arrogant. I'll show you later —"
Before he could finish.
Someone waved his hand and interrupted him.
"Got it."
"Hurry up, I'm in a hurry."
In a hurry.
In a hurry.
In a hurry?
Zou Siyuan's face suddenly turned green. He was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
What the hell …
Lin Feng was even crazier than him!?
