The entire stadium was silent.
Compared to the Jade Dynasty players on stage, they had personally witnessed how Jade Dynasty's Cleric had been dragged out of the formation and beaten to death.
Cloud Grasping Hand Grabbing Healer. To be honest, this was not a new tactic in a team battle. Even in the MMORPG's arena, players were always happy to engage in team battles. Of course, the prerequisite was that there was a Qi Master in the team.
Yes, a Qi Master. Having this class was a prerequisite. Happy didn't have one, so Jade Dynasty obviously wasn't on guard against this kind of dirty tactic. Yet, a Cloud Grasping Hands just happened to appear in this match. After Jade Dynasty's Cleric was pulled over, he had no ability to resist and was beaten up by Lord Grim and Han Yanrou. On the side, Happy's Cleric was adding fuel to the fire. One moment, he would use Holy Commandment, the next moment, he would use Sacred Fire. Jade Dynasty's Cleric couldn't resist at all. He was casually kneaded like a piece of dough. Even in the end, when he became a corpse, he was sent flying by a Blow Away attack. Following Ye Xiu's words in the chat, Jade Dynasty's Cleric's corpse passed through One Inch Ash's Ghost Boundary with a bang and fell in front of Jade Dynasty's four players.
The healer was dead. There was nothing worse than this in a team competition, unless the team didn't bring a healer and was prepared to go all out.
Not only was Jade Dynasty not in this situation, but they also treated their healer as the core of their team.
The healer was dead. The core was dead. Just as Ye Xiu had asked, was there a need to continue?
The results of the match were quickly revealed. Happy easily won. If the players looked back at the group arena, they would be shocked to find that this match wasn't as intense as everyone had expected. Happy had won rather easily!
However, Jade Dynasty's players didn't think this way. The instant the match ended, Cleric Lu Shilin had already charged out of the player booth like a madman. In this match, he didn't even have time to let the audience recognize his character's name. He didn't have time to use any of his Cleric skills. All of this was because of that damned Cloud Grasping Hands.
That's right, it was this unbearably vulgar strategy that even normal players would use that decided the final outcome of such an important match. There weren't any profound or complicated tactics involved. Sun Zheping and Tang Rou had just come out to distract them, giving Ye Xiu a suitable opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
There was only one prerequisite for all of this to happen: Team Jade Dynasty didn't know that Lord Grim could use Cloud Grasping Fist. If they had known earlier, they wouldn't have protected Lord Grim like this. They would have taken special care of him, just like how they would take care of a Qigong Master. No matter what, they wouldn't have allowed Lord Grim to stand behind them so casually. Then, with a raise of his hand, he would have pulled them over and gotten rid of them.
Lu Shilin was not convinced. A hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times. This match had nothing to do with strategy or skill. It was all about a detail that Team Jade Dynasty didn't know...
Happy's victory was too unfair. They should feel ashamed of this kind of victory!
In the end, Wei Chen was the first to come out of Happy's booth. As soon as he came out, he stretched his back and said, "Why are you guys so fast? I just fell asleep!"
"You guys... you guys..." Seeing Team Happy's players come out one by one, Lu Shilin pointed at them. He was so angry that he trembled, but he couldn't say anything.
What could he say? Could it be that Happy should have told him beforehand that they would use Cloud Grasping Fist so that Jade Dynasty would be on guard? Lu Shilin obviously knew that this was even more impossible. As a result, even though he was filled with dissatisfaction, he couldn't find any reason to say anything.
After saying "you guys" for a long time and seeing that Happy's team members were about to leave the stage, he suddenly said, "What kind of f * cking class is an unspecialized? Is it even allowed to participate in matches???"
He was clearly already trying to twist words and force logic. The Pro League had never had any restrictions or requirements for characters. Using an unspecialized in a match was just unprecedented. There was no reason to say that they couldn't participate in matches.
Lu Shilin's words were completely ineffective to Happy's team members. They all laughed and chatted, completely ignoring his existence. They walked off the stage and celebrated their victory with the players who hadn't gone on stage.
Lu Shilin still wanted to rush up and argue, but someone pulled him from behind. When he turned around, he saw that it was Team Jade Dynasty's captain, Lin Yi.
"What are you doing?" Lu Shilin angrily pushed away Lin Yi's hand. It was clear that this captain didn't have any authority in his eyes.
"A loss is a loss. Have some grace!" Lin Yi said.
"Grace? You really do have grace! Can you accept losing in such a cowardly manner? "Lu Shilin shouted.
"That's how competition is. At least we won't make the same mistake next time." Lin Yi said.
"Next time? When? Next year? " Lu Shilin mocked, "The reason you were able to fool around in the Challenger League for three years was because you could accept losing like this. But I definitely won't!"
"I don't think we lost like this. We just lost to something we didn't expect. In the end, it was because we didn't prepare enough. It was the same for the team competition and the group arena. "Lin Yi said.
When Lu Shilin heard this, he suddenly laughed: "So it's like that. You want to find an excuse for your trashy performance in the group arena? So now that you lost the team competition, you're actually very happy, right? This just shows that you're not that incompetent, right? "
"Calm down." Lin Yi was somewhat helpless, but he could more or less understand Lu Shilin's feelings. Losing in the Challenger League was a huge blow because it meant wasting another year. It was even more painful than losing the championship. Losing the championship didn't mean the end of the world, but losing in the Challenger League was very likely the end of the world. Didn't Team Everlasting disband this season because of their loss in the Challenger League?
Team Jade Dynasty couldn't make it out of the Challenger League year after year. This made their players live in fear. They were afraid that one day they would wake up and suddenly receive a notice that the team was disbanded and everyone would go home.
This was the life of the bottom rung of the pro scene. Just like the people at the bottom of the ladder, they couldn't talk about their dreams or goals. Just surviving was enough to make them battered and bruised.
Jade Dynasty struggled through year after year like this. No one knew better than the players of Jade Dynasty about this kind of life at the bottom of the ladder. Xiao Jie's sudden appearance was welcomed by them. At least for a short time, they wouldn't have to worry about the existence of their team.
But soon, they discovered that their new boss wasn't as simple as they thought. He desperately wanted Team Jade Dynasty to return to the Alliance, back to the land where pro players truly lived.
In reality, who wouldn't want to do that? Team Jade Dynasty persevered year after year. Wasn't that the same goal? But to achieve this goal, they had to set out from reality. Team Jade Dynasty had sunk into the Challenger League for three years. It was easy to imagine how much their strength had declined.
Admittedly, Xiao Jie had brought in a pretty good player. At the same time, he had brought in Team Jade Dynasty's former captain, Zhang Jian, as a helper. He had made full use of Team Jade Dynasty's many years of accumulation. In addition, he had replenished Team Jade Dynasty's funds and improved their equipment. Team Jade Dynasty instantly looked brand new.
But even so, wasn't it a bit too early to be looking forward to returning to the Alliance this season?
No one looked forward to that stage more than Lin Yi and the others. But a brand new team, characters, and equipment needed to be adapted. The new Cleric had become the core player. With this change in core player, the entire team's tactical system also needed to be adjusted. Apart from this, this season's Challenger League had an unprecedented mountain to climb: Team Excellent Era.
Jade Dynasty's situation this season couldn't be described as being plagued by internal and external troubles. But what about the new boss? What about the new core player? They all thought that this was a challenge, but also an opportunity. If they could defeat Excellent Era and return to the Alliance, Jade Dynasty would be able to make a name for themselves and return to the Alliance with a high profile. And then, and then, these two were already talking about the championship.
Team Jade Dynasty's players couldn't adapt to this sudden change. They didn't know how they had suddenly gone from worrying about whether or not the team could survive to talking about the championship.
It wasn't that Team Jade Dynasty's players didn't have high ambitions, but the descriptions of their new boss and teammates only made them feel like they were exaggerating.
As the captain, Lin Yi had specifically looked for Xiao Jie to discuss this issue. However, his worries were completely ignored by the boss. He was addicted to using his methods. For example, he wouldn't use good equipment until the final battle to catch the opponent off guard. Excellent Era's panic was a scene that made him laugh out loud just thinking about it.
The Lin Yi at that time was just as helpless as the current Lu Shilin. It wasn't without reason that this new boss and new teammate were so compatible. They were both extremely conceited people. Many clearly difficult problems would be easily solved by them through their fantasies.
Team Jade Dynasty set sail under this background. Xiao Jie repeatedly reminded everyone to conserve their strength so that they could surprise Excellent Era in the finals.
The great writer Xiao Jie treated running a team like he was writing a novel. He treated this as something that was completely under his control. If he wanted to suppress and then suppress, then suppress and then suppress. If he wanted to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger, then he would pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger. He treated reality like his novel. Everything would go according to his wishes. And now, when everything that was happening in reality was completely different from the plot he had written, his most loyal believer, Lu Shilin, who was completely addicted to the plot he had written, was the first to break down.
