Again, another win?
This time, the audience was truly stunned.
The fact that Tang Rou was able to fight evenly with Yu Feng was already very impressive. Being able to win was already a pleasant surprise. And now, with half health, Tang Rou was actually able to defeat Hundred Blossoms' third player … Even though Yu Feng's Blossoming Chaos had already lost one-fifth of his health to Fang Rui's Hai Wuliang, one-fifths was still four-fifths. In this situation, even if it was a 1v2, no one would think it was too much, right?
A rookie, in the second round of her career, had accomplished the feat of 1v2, and one of them was even an All Star level superstar.
What was going on?
What was going on?
The audience was stunned for a good while. Then, applause, screams, and cheers exploded throughout the stadium. The announcement of the results of the group arena was instantly drowned out by the many loudspeakers in the stadium. The thunderous applause filled every corner of the stadium. Even the Glory players who weren't particularly interested in Happy and had only come to watch the excitement deeply realized that they might very well be witnessing the rise of yet another Glory star.
Tang Rou had already walked out of the competitor booth. The frenzied cheers and applause for her didn't faze her in the slightest. She raised her hand into the air, letting everyone see her waving her fist.
The stadium became even more lively.
This was truly an amazing victory. It belonged to Tang Rou, and it belonged to Happy. All sorts of spontaneous chants rang out in the stadium. Home field. This was a true home field. It was enough to make the opponent feel unconfident and fearful.
The noise continued for a long time, to the point where the live broadcast couldn't announce the next round of the competition. Fortunately, even if no one announced it, everyone knew that after the group arena ended, it was obviously time for the team competition. And so far, Happy was leading Hundred Blossoms by a huge margin, 4 to 1. If they also won the team competition, it would be 9 to 1. It wouldn't be a complete victory, but it would be enough to satisfy them. Especially with such a brilliant performance in the group arena, they had practically stolen the limelight of the team competition.
Happy old and young, of course, would not hide the joy in their hearts when the audience was so excited.
"So beautiful!" As soon as Tang Rou returned to the contestant area, Chen Guo hugged her. Many wolf howls could be heard from the spectator seats nearby. The eye-pleasing scene of the two beauties hugging each other caused many people to uncontrollably kick up a fuss.
"Beautifully done." Ye Xiu was also praising.
However, this was not the time to be happy. After the group arena, there was a relatively long break between the team competition and the group arena. During this time, teams would usually make some minor adjustments or changes based on the opponent's condition or some other problems they discovered. Thus, after a short celebration, the entire team gathered together and began to prepare for the team competition.
Team Hundred Blossoms was the same. However, happy things could be left for later. What about the depressing atmosphere? Could it be that they should be happy first and then be dejected later?
Obviously not. Although the group arena had started unfavorably, Mo Fan's technical foul had given them a huge gift. They had a huge 2v1 advantage, but in the end, they had been turned around. Hundred Blossoms' morale was at an all-time low. When Zhu Xiaoping came down, his teammates' consolation was all about the situation. Clearly, from the bottom of their hearts, everyone was very disappointed.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Cheer up, the match isn't over yet. There's still the team competition. You can help us get enough points! "As the captain, Yu Feng had to stand up and encourage his teammates. However, the effect of his words was not obvious. Although everyone seemed to be in high spirits, Yu Feng could tell that they were just going along with his words. Their fighting spirit had not been ignited because of this.
How could it be like this?
Yu Feng knew that there was nothing clever about his words. Perhaps everyone could say them. But he clearly remembered, when he was in Team Blue Rain, facing all kinds of unfavorable situations, even in the Season 8 finals, when they were trailing Samsara 2.5 to 7 in their home game, captain Yu Wenzhou could change the entire atmosphere with just a few simple words.
The match isn't over yet …
This seemed to be one of Yu Wenzhou's most common words. Now that Yu Feng had also become the captain, the words that he blurted out were the most commonly heard captain's words in the previous battle team. However, why was it that his words and Yu Wenzhou's were so different?
Yu Feng was very gloomy and also very helpless. He had never experienced falling behind so pathetically before. Being 1v2 by a rookie, including him, the captain and the core player …
Was it because he was one of the reasons why his team's fighting spirit had been dispirited, so now his words made everyone disapprove?
There wasn't much time for Yu Feng to think about the wisdom of being a captain. Seeing his teammates' low spirits and low morale, he couldn't do anything about it. He could only calm himself down and calmly make arrangements for the upcoming team competition, hoping that his emotions would affect his teammates.
The two teams made arrangements for the team competition, while the crowd was still immersed in the victory of the group arena. The crowd also used this free time to continuously review the highlights of the group arena. On the electronic screens and in the stadium, all sorts of freeze-frames, close-ups, and slow-motion replays were used to show the might of Tang Rou's battle.
These Hundred Blossoms players and fans obviously saw it, and of course, they were very unhappy. However, this was Happy's home stadium. Who would care about their emotions? This was the so-called home field advantage. After all, the home team's fans were their long-term ticket sales guarantee!
The players were actively preparing for battle, the audience was passionately reviewing the match, but as for the media?
Pan Lin, who was currently broadcasting the match between Thunder and Void, had heard about the twists and turns of the group arena, as well as how Tang Rou had crushed Yu Feng and the other two from Hundred Blossoms. He once again forcefully inserted flowers into the broadcast and introduced Happy's situation to the audience.
That night, the eSports channel received countless calls from the audience. The more polite ones asked which channel they could watch Happy's match with Hundred Blossoms and understood the broadcast system. The more explosive ones directly asked why they didn't broadcast Happy's match with Hundred Blossoms.
The station didn't have time to complain about Pan Lin. Their intestines were green with regret. But who could have predicted that Happy would explode with such brilliance in this match?
The live broadcast could only continue helplessly. On the online broadcast, Happy's match with Hundred Blossoms was going up like crazy, completely outpacing the other nine matches. The online media that could release news in real time had already quickly posted articles about Tang Rou's performance on their websites. As for the newspapers and magazines that didn't release news in real time, the various reporters couldn't help but excitedly describe this round of the group arena.
Was the team competition still important?
In their eyes, it was already not important. No matter how the team competition ended, Tang Rou's god-like performance in the group arena today would be tomorrow's headlines. They just hoped that Tang Rou wouldn't suddenly fall into a slump in the team competition. But even if she did, it seemed like she could be described as an angel for a moment, then a devil for a moment. From the looks of it, no matter what, there would be a headline. The reporters were excited, full of vigor and enthusiasm. Only when the team competition was about to begin and the players were about to go onstage did they reluctantly return to watching the match.
In the team competition, Happy's lineup was: Ye Xiu's unspecialized Lord Grim, Su Mucheng's Launcher Dancing Rain, Fang Rui's Qi Master Hai Wuliang, Qiao Yifan's Ghostblade One Inch Ash, and An Wenyi's Cleric Little Cold Hands. Tang Rou's Han Yanrou was the sixth player.
On Hundred Blossoms' side, Feng's Berserker Blossoming Chaos, Zou Yuan's Spitfire Blossoming Blossoms, Zhou Guangyi's Assassin Cold Seasons, Zhu Xiaoping's Summoner Wind Carving, Mo Chuchen's Cleric Arrogant Flowers as the starting lineup, and Zhang Wei's Witch Endless Forest as the sixth player.
Happy had rotated the lineups of the two teams a bit. Among them, Priest An Wenyi's participation was inevitable. Qiao Yifan hadn't appeared in any of the individual matches either. Baozi, who had appeared in the individual competition, and Mo Fan, who had appeared in the group arena, were both sitting in the player area.
On Hundred Blossoms' side, apart from their healer Mo Chuchen, there was no one else who hadn't appeared in the individual competition. This sort of substitution usually wouldn't be considered a rotation.
The players of both teams appeared on stage, and after shaking hands, they entered their respective player booths. The referee confirmed that both teams were ready, and the match began. The sound of a countdown echoed throughout the stadium.
Finally, the team competition officially began.
The map used for the match was Broken River.
The entire map was a perfect square, with diagonal lines divided into four triangular regions. The top and bottom triangular regions were two stone forests, while the left and right triangular regions were two triangular forests. The paths in the Stone Forest and the Forest were more complicated and winding. The diagonal lines that intersected each other, from the northeast to the southwest, were the main roads, while from the northwest to the southeast was a river. However, in the middle, it was blocked by the main roads that ran from the northeast to the southwest. Thus, the name of the Broken River came about.
The Broken River flowed rapidly, but it flowed backwards. The cut in the middle seemed to be the source of the river. However, when it flowed to the northwest and southeast corners, they reached the edge of the map. Here, the Broken River turned into a waterfall, which was actually the exit of the map. However, if you left here, your character would be declared dead and eliminated from the match.
The two teams spawned in the southwest and northeast corners. Apart from these two points, there was a character swap area in each of the four triangular regions.
Team Hundred Blossoms spawned at the top of the map, in the northeast corner.
Team Happy spawned at the bottom of the map, in the southwest corner.
The main road ran straight through, without any obstructions. Walking along the main road, the two teams would definitely quickly appear in each other's field of view. Team Happy directly charged up the main road, but Team Hundred Blossoms chose to take a roundabout route. The team quickly entered the stone forest in the north.
