Happy had been swept clean by Samsara in the match, but they had won against the reporters in the press conference. After defeating the reporters, the four left with their heads held high. When they left through the player passageway, they ran into Samsara's group, who were participating in the next round of the press conference.
Zhou Zekai, Jiang Botao, Sun Xiang.
For the opening match, Samsara was off to a good start. Samsara wasn't stingy in sending out their three stars. Sun Xiang might have failed miserably in the Excellent Era, but he was still young, so he was still viewed favorably. In these matches, Sun Xiang's integration into Samsara seemed to be going quite smoothly. Let alone the 1v1 matches, in the team competition, he took on the role of the attacker very well. With One Autumn Leaf at the front and Cloud Piercer at the back, they tore apart Happy's formation as easily as crushing dry weeds. It could be foreseen that this wouldn't be their first time. This two-one combination would become the Alliance's nightmare for a long time to come. Some reporters were already excitedly writing in their own press releases.
"Senior!" Samsara's Jiang Botao greeted Happy's group of four politely. Most of the time, the winner would comfort the loser, and Jiang Botao obviously wanted to do the same.
"Mm, seeing the younger generation so outstanding, I'm very gratified!" Ye Xiu said, deeply moved.
Sun Xiang rolled his eyes. Because of this person, he had suffered, had lost. But in the end, he had learned from these miserable defeats. However, if one were to say that he was grateful to the opponent who defeated him, Sun Xiang would not be so sweet. He was still looking forward to defeating this person. He had gone all out in today's match, and in the end, Samsara had won completely. But in his heart, he didn't feel like he had defeated Ye Xiu. Was it because they hadn't fought tit for tat? Sun Xiang was somewhat at a loss.
No one from Samsara responded, but Fang Rui nodded his head after Ye Xiu. "Mm, I'm very gratified too."
Zhou Zekai stared blankly at Fang Rui without saying a word.
"Hehe, Little Zhou and Fang Rui are from the same batch, right?" Jiang Botao laughed.
"Really? Who asked him to be so quiet all the time? I forgot. "Fang Rui said.
"Pro players should speak with their actions!" Jiang Botao said.
"Alright, I'll talk to you about it next time." Fang Rui said.
"See you next time."
"See you next time."
After a brief exchange of words, the two parted ways. Samsara's press conference was quite normal. It was the style of a press conference after the opening match. The most talked about was their goals for the new season. The new addition Sun Xiang received the most attention. He was asked a lot of questions about his feelings and adaptability after joining Samsara.
Ye Xiu's group of four passed through the player passageway and returned to the guest team lounge in Samsara's stadium. They didn't go in and sit for long. They pushed open the door and called out to the people inside, "Let's go!"
With zero points, Happy left Samsara's stadium and returned to City H. It was impossible to say that he didn't care about this kind of score. On the plane, Chen Guo felt uncomfortable no matter how she sat. She looked at Su Mucheng next to her and wanted to say something, but then she saw that Su Mucheng was looking at the tablet in Ye Xiu's hands.
"What is he looking at?" Chen Guo asked curiously.
"The recording of the match that just ended." Su Mucheng said.
"Oh …" Chen Guo didn't say anything else.
This wasn't the only match in the first round. By the time Happy was on his way home, the other matches had already ended.
Like Happy, Team Miracle, who had just joined the Alliance, didn't get swept by the champions. Instead, they were swept by Team Tyranny. To be honest, Team Miracle wasn't that bad. They joined the Alliance just as Excellent Era was disbanding, so they took the opportunity to grab a lot of things. Of the players from Excellent Era, they managed to poach three of them. In terms of player quality, they were actually better than last season's Heavenly Swords. Unfortunately, apart from the remaining assets from Excellent Era, Miracle didn't bring anything new to the Alliance. The attention they received was far less than last year's Heavenly Swords.
Speaking of Heavenly Swords, when they announced that Sun Zheping would be returning to the team, it had already caused a round of heated discussion. After all, when they saw Sun Zheping before, he was helping Happy in the Challenger League. Everyone thought that he would be returning from Happy. Who would have thought that he would turn around and run to Team Heavenly Swords?
In the end, Team Heavenly Swords was matched up against Hundred Blossoms in the first round.
First it was Zhang Jiale, then it was Sun Zheping. The two former kings of Hundred Blossoms, after retiring and returning, both chose not to return.
When Zhang Jiale was gone, the fans cried and cursed. They couldn't understand and accept it. As for Sun Zheping? At the very least, when he was helping Happy in the Challenger League, there were people who saw this coming. However, Sun Zheping had been gone for a long time, so his emotions were a lot weaker. Plus, when he returned, it was in the Challenger League, so people felt that he wasn't serious and was just messing around. Unlike Zhang Jiale, who entered Tyranny as soon as he returned, giving people the impression that he was trying to latch onto the big thigh of the championship. Compared to the two, Sun Zheping's return didn't cause much of a stir. But no matter what, there were still some voices. The reporters also knew that this was a topic of discussion. As a result, at the press conference after the match, someone threw out this question.
Sun Zheping's return wasn't as grand as Zhang Jiale's, but he was much more intense than Zhang Jiale. When asked why he chose Heavenly Swords instead of Hundred Blossoms, Sun Zheping's answer was three words: I was willing.
In reality, Sun Zheping's situation had been pretty much dug up when Happy was still in the picture. Everyone already knew that his hand injury hadn't completely healed. He could still play, but he couldn't play too much. He couldn't become a stable main force in a pro team.
As a result, many smart people had already guessed why Sun Zheping had gone to Heavenly Swords.
In the end, he clearly had a reason that everyone could understand, but when asked, his answer was three words: "I was willing.
I was willing. "He didn't explain.
This was Sun Zheping's personality. His hand was injured, and he could no longer become a true pro player, but his personality had never changed.
In the match between Hundred Blossoms and Heavenly Swords, Hundred Blossoms won 8 to 2. Heavenly Swords won two points in the individual competition, and one of them was won by Sun Zheping. Many people felt that it was a pity. After leaving the pro scene for so many years, he could still play so well despite being injured. If he never got injured, what kind of position would Sun Zheping have in the pro scene?
Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world...
Apart from this, there were still seven more matches in the first round, and there weren't too many highlights. This was how the Pro Alliance had always arranged their matches. The first round! The players' curiosity towards the teams after the summer adjustments was enough for them to pay attention to the matches. There was no need to create too many highlights.
Seven matches.
Team Blue Rain beat Team Bright Green 9 to 1.
Micrograss swept Team Lightly 10 to 0.
Team Wind Howl beat Team Conquering Clouds 9 to 1.
Misty Rain beat Team Seaside 8 to 2.
Team Void had a slight lead over 301 Degrees 6 to 4.
Team Thunder beat Team Parade 7 to 3.
Team Royal Style beat Team Radiant 7 to 3.
There were no surprises. In everyone's eyes, the teams that should have won had won, and the teams that should have lost had lost. In reality, in the regular season, everyone fought for points. There was no such thing as winning or losing. However, out of habit, everyone was still willing to call the team with the most points the winner, and the other team the loser.
As a result, after the first round, Tyranny, Samsara, and Micrograss had all obtained 10 points, placing them in first through third place. Team Wind Howl and Blue Rain were in fourth and fifth place with 9 points. Misty Rain was in sixth place with 8 points. Team Royal Style and Thunderclap were in seventh and eighth place with 7 points … … Finally, there were the three teams that hadn't obtained a single point: Happy, Miracle, and Lightly.
Lightly was also a mid-tier team in the Alliance, neither too good nor too bad. They were relatively invisible. (Yes, extremely invisible. It wasn't until the Alliance was written that they realized they were still missing one out of the 20 teams. As a result, Lightly was born!) Facing a powerhouse team, it wasn't too surprising that they lost.
As for Happy and Miracle, they had finally continued their tradition of entering the Alliance. Who told them to face last season's champions and runners-up?
All three teams had zero points, but Happy was thrown to the very bottom. Currently, there were no other sub-scores to calculate, so unfortunately, Happy lost to the mysterious S and the light Q in the 26 alphabets order, falling to last place.
The opening match of Season 10 ended just like that. From the opening match, it was hard to tell how the season was going to go. It was just that Happy, a team that had received a lot of attention, had been swept by Samsara, and now it was hard to unravel.
Was this team strong or weak?
The media was analyzing, the players were discussing, but in the end, they were outsiders. The ones with the real headaches were the various teams in the Alliance. They were the ones who needed to worry about Happy.
Happy's match with Samsara was recorded in every team's collection. This was too valuable information. As a whole, there was pitifully little information about high-level matches on this team. The only information they had was last year's match against Excellent Era.
As soon as the research began, the various teams discovered that Happy had a lot of things to research!
There was no need to talk about the rookies. Of the three old friends in the pro scene, Su Mucheng was the only one that everyone felt familiar with. The other two were now known as transformational players! They had to start all over again. Didn't that mean they had to start all over again? Among them, Fang Rui was a bit better. At least there were traces to follow, but Ye Xiu was disgusting.
Unspecialized? Everyone knew what this class was all about. They knew how it worked, and they could even practice it. But the problem was that they didn't have the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella. An unspecialized without the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella would have a completely different battle rhythm. They couldn't practice it, they couldn't simulate it. They could only look at the data and the match recordings. Moreover, they had to watch these two pitiful recordings over and over again.
He was clearly someone that everyone was extremely familiar with, but now he was like a mystery to them. This kind of feeling wasn't happy at all.
You've already retired. Why did you come back? Why did you change classes when you came back? Why did you choose to be an unspecialized when you changed classes? Why did you choose to be an unspecialized when you had to create a specialized weapon?
