To be honest, Nian Thirteen, as the jungler of the blue team, did not perform to his full potential in the mock training match that had just ended.
On the one hand, when he chose the Ban before the start of the game, he slightly underestimated the girl who came up to fight against him. He quite generously took the initiative to give up a few offensive jungler heroes that he was best at, and only chose Rexel, who was good at digging.
On the other hand, in the first few minutes of the game, he did not pay enough attention to the young lady's jungler, Widow Evelyn. As a result, his gank on the top lane was caught by Widow Evelyn and she successfully killed him by crouching down.
Then, even if he quickly cast aside all of his initial carelessness and went all out in the most cautious manner to face the subsequent confrontation, it should be known that when experts exchanged blows, not even the slightest mistake was allowed. If you let your opponent take two steps back, then you could only be restrained in all aspects later on.
It could be said that in this match, Nian Thirteen's Rexel was obviously at a disadvantage in terms of the overall rhythm of the junglers of both sides.
Even if he flashed a few W's during the team battle and coordinated perfectly with his teammates to create an explosive team control combo, his performance was still inferior to Anxin's if they were only talking about junglers.
However, Nian Thirteen was not a sore loser at this time.
He rubbed his palms together and could not wait to fight again. It was not an attempt to save face after being embarrassed into anger.
Because …
This was completely different from the training match between the Assassin and BW this morning.
In the morning match, he was really frustrated and annoyed by being targeted. Anxin had spent the entire coaching team of the club to cause trouble for him, and it was not his jungler's fault that they lost in the end.
However, in the match that had just ended …
It was purely because of the girl's individual strength and understanding of the jungler that he was at a disadvantage.
This feeling …
It was extremely rare for Nian Thirteen.
Therefore, at this time, the Assassin Team's seven ace jungler captain was itching to have a hundred claws scratching his heart. It was too rare. Back then, he lost to Li Shiyi because his personal strength was still lacking. Now, even if he were to fight against Mafa, his old rival from SSK, he would not easily suffer such a loss.
Therefore, An Xin, who he had encountered in this mock competition, was a rare and unique opponent!
In the mock battle that had just ended, all of them had helped Team God practice their new tactical system. They had also helped Morning Star find a mid-laner hero that could be used as a trump card.
However, Nian Thirteen did not feel envious at all.
Because he himself had also found an unprecedented perfect sparring partner who might be of great help to him in improving his strength and breaking through the bottleneck of his realm!
At this moment, Nian Thirteen's eyes were shining like two one-kilowatt light bulbs.
This kind of opportunity …
There was no way he would let it go!
…
To sum up Nian Shisan's current state in one word, it was "eager to hunt".
One could not really blame him. As the most experienced professional esports player who had entered the professional esports circle in Season S1, Nian Thirteen had been working hard ever since he lost to Li Shiyi in the finals of Season S1. By Season S2, he had become one of the best junglers in the world.
His rise to fame was even earlier than SSK's jungler, Mafa.
When he became one of the Seven Kings in the world, his individual skills and condition had long reached their peak, and he had maintained it all the way until now.
For most professional esports players, this was almost a heaven-defying achievement. It was an amazing achievement that countless people had to look up to.
However, the problem was —
Ever since he had reached his peak, he had not made any further breakthroughs in the past few seasons.
Based on paper, Nian Thirteen's current strength was probably above that of the Seven Kings.
Then, he had stagnated.
For a top-tier pro player like him who wholeheartedly sought to climb to a higher peak, this was the most unacceptable and intolerable thing. In addition, there were even more rookies appearing in this year's World Finals. He even saw that Morning Star was about to break through the threshold of the Four Emperors, which made him even more worried.
Of course, he also knew that there were some things that he could not be envious of.
For top-notch fighters like him and Morning Star, if they wanted to improve further, what they needed was not just hard training, but a precious opportunity.
Morning Star had been waiting for this opportunity. He had met Lin Feng, who had stood at the top of the pyramid of mid laners. Lin Feng had helped him unreservedly for a period of time. He had even trained together with him, allowing him to break through the bottleneck that he had been stuck at for many years.
This kind of luck … was too rare.
After all, it was not easy to find a perfect sparring partner like Lin Feng.
Nian Thirteen did not have any extravagant hopes in the beginning.
But —
After the mock match, he found it hard to believe, and then he was ecstatic to find that … he seemed to have found the opportunity that belonged to him!
And this also meant that … if he could repeat the simulation training a few more times, let him go all out and do more training with the girl opposite him, perhaps his bottleneck of the Seven Kings, which had been stagnant for many years, would usher in a breakthrough after many years!
Not to mention breaking through the threshold of one of the Four Kings.
But at least —
Half a step into the Four Kings was within reach!
…
With the hope of breaking through the bottleneck right in front of him, no professional player would easily let go of such an opportunity.
Therefore, although he had just recovered from the intense mock match, Nian Thirteen could not wait to start the second round and continue sparring with An Xin, the jungler.
At this moment, his mind was full of plans. After the second round, he would play the third, fourth, and fifth … Otherwise, he could skip the tactical review meeting at his Assassin Club that night. It was just a simple review meeting, and it was absolutely not as important as the improvement of his personal strength!
Perhaps tomorrow's exchange mock match could also be postponed?
It would be best if …
They could spend all their remaining time before the finals on private training and confrontations here!
However …
Just like in the first mock match, An Xin unexpectedly volunteered to play. At this moment, in the face of Nian Thirteen's enthusiastic and even solicitous invitation, An Xin's answer once again caught everyone off guard.
"For the second round, you guys can play."
"I won't play."
Everyone in the training room was stunned and did not respond —
This, this first round was going well.
Why did she suddenly not play the second round?
Nian Thirteen, who was full of hope a second ago, was instantly dumbfounded.
"Ah, you won't play?"
The next second, the number one jungler of the LMS division reacted and almost jumped up in anxiety.
"Why!?"
He asked the question that was on everyone's mind.
However, the girl stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.
"Sorry."
"A little tired."
