"Only a strong team has the capital to be arrogant."
Ceng Rui gave such an evaluation from the front row of the spectator stands. His gaze fell on the Beijing Telecommunications Association team's arena on the stage. His expression was slightly solemn.
"Even if they sent two substitutes, the Beijing Telecommunications Association team … is still very strong."
When the Shanghai Telecommunications Association team heard these words, they couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Because that was the truth.
As the champion team of the North China region, the most frightening thing about the Beijing Telecommunications Association team was that from the first elimination round of the North China region until the finals, their team's lineup had never changed.
The two core top laners and mid laners had always been hidden at the bottom of a box and didn't go on stage.
But even so, the Beijing Telecommunications Association team still firmly won the championship of the North China region.
From start to finish, they had only lost two matches in the North China region.
This was a little scary.
Because in the finals, the Beijing Telecommunications Association team's opponent was last year's National High School League champion, Beijing University of Science and Technology. In the BO5 match, the Beijing Telecommunications Association team won 3 to 2.
Of course, part of the reason was that Beijing University of Science and Technology didn't bring out their final strength. But don't forget, even in that round of the regional finals, the two core aces of the Beijing Telecommunications Association team didn't go on stage.
What did this mean?
It meant that even if both teams went all out, the final victory … was still very likely to fall on the Beijing Telecommunications Association team.
Chu Fangnan's expression was also somewhat solemn.
"You guys have to watch this round carefully."
"Who knows … this team from the Beijing Esports Association will be your biggest opponent in this year's National High School League."
…
The match on the stage had already begun.
The players of the other high school teams in the spectator stands couldn't help but cheer for the Nanjing University team.
No matter what, this was the National High School League. It was supposed to be a competition stage for the major high school teams. If they really let a few high school teams crush them in all kinds of ways, they would lose face.
This was the feeling of being bound by a common hatred for the enemy.
At the same time, several members of the Nanjing University team in the arena also looked very serious. They knew that their opponents in this round were very strong, but they also had the determination and belief to win.
No matter what, the opponent only sent out three official members. This kind of careless behavior must be taught a lesson!
However, an hour later —
On the big screen of the Esports Y Crystal, when the blue "Victory" emblem representing the Beijing Esports Association appeared, the entire stadium was silent. The expressions of the Nanjing University team members were extremely pale and filled with the aura of defeat.
2 to 0.
The Beijing Telecommunications Association team won.
Below the stage, in the spectator area, the players from the various university teams couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. Their gazes fell on the Beijing Telecommunications Association's team's arena, and their emotions were incomparably complicated and shaken.
After all, Nanjing University was not weak. They were ranked 11th in the last National University League.
But the Beijing Telecommunications Association's representative team, despite sending out two substitutes, was able to crush their opponents in a terrifying manner, destroying all of their opponents' resistance in twenty-three to twenty-four minutes.
How could they be so strong?
For a moment, the players from the other university teams couldn't help but turn pale, and their hearts were filled with disbelief.
Even the members of the Shenyang University of Technology team, who had also advanced with a score of 2 to 0, had extremely serious expressions as they whispered to each other about something.
…
At this time, the last group of matches for the afternoon had already begun. The two teams on the arena fought back and forth, and it was quite lively. They were considered evenly matched, but the audience in the audience seats, including the various university teams, weren't paying attention.
Most of them were still immersed in the previous group's match.
The Beijing Telecommunications Association team …
This team, which was the first to appear among the three representatives of the Telecommunications Association, had already left a rather shocking impression on everyone in the stadium.
"Can we beat them?"
On the Zhejiang University team's side, several members were discussing in low voices, but they could see the helplessness in each other's eyes when they looked at each other.
Sun Ruinian took a deep breath.
They could fight, they could fight.
If they were to fight against the Beijing Telecommunications Association team on the arena just now, as long as they played normally and cooperated well, the chances of winning should be around 50-50.
But the problem was that the Beijing Telecommunications Association team that fought in the previous round … wasn't the "real" Beijing Telecommunications Association team.
It sounded a little hard to pronounce, but that was the truth.
At this moment, Sun Ruinian had mixed feelings, but he had to admit that if the Beijing Telecommunications Association team had switched out the other two core aces, then their chances of winning would be incomparably slim.
Perhaps if Senior Shi was still there, they would still have the confidence to fight against them.
But now …
Sun Ruinian could only silently pray that their Zhejiang University team wouldn't be so unlucky as to meet the Beijing Telecommunications Association team.
…
"Oh, their skills are really not bad ~"
On the Shanghai Telecommunications Association team's side, Lin Feng gave his evaluation casually as usual.
"Their support at the bottom lane was pretty good."
"Hammerstone's hook is almost half of my level!"
Of course, the second half of his self-praise was directly ignored by the other members of the team next to him. An Xin nodded slightly.
"Yup, that support has a Hammerstone and a Sunmaiden. They're both playing beautifully."
Ceng Rui rubbed his temples and said in a flat tone,
"That guy's called Zhang Hongyi. He's in his third year at Beijing's Chaoyang District No.4 High School.
He's a Master in solo support. He's probably already at the King level.
His strength rating is … between B + and A-. He's an offensive support hero, and his playstyle is very fierce.
He's pretty good. "
In just a few sentences, Ceng Rui casually introduced the information of the support member of the Beijing Telecommunications Association's team as if he was very familiar with them.
When Lin Feng heard this, he was stunned.
"Oh, Ceng, you even know this?"
"Isn't this a little too detailed?"
Even the other members of the team, including An Xin and Tang Bingyao, couldn't help but stare at Ceng Rui in surprise. Normally speaking, such detailed information couldn't be gathered through conventional means.
Ceng Rui remained calm in the face of his teammates' gazes. He gave a simple explanation.
"I've known that guy before."
Sort of.
We had a little conflict. "
Lin Feng and the others were very curious. Did they have a grudge against each other?
If it was anyone else, it wouldn't be a big deal, but coming from Ceng Rui's mouth, it was a completely different story.
For Ceng Rui to say something like "a little conflict," there had to be a big grudge between them!
However, Ceng Rui didn't say anything else. He had no intention of explaining, so they could only put their curiosity aside and wait for a chance to ask him later.
The last match of the afternoon had already progressed to the second match of a best-of-three. Tang Bingyao looked to the side and carefully stood up. "I … I'm going to the bathroom."
"I … I'm going to the bathroom."
Chu Fangnan nodded and said,
"The bathroom is on the left. Be careful. The match should be over soon. We'll wait for you here."
Lin Feng waved his hand and said in a matter-of-fact tone,
"What's there to be careful about? Tang Tang isn't a kid, and we're in the stadium. She'll be fine!"
