She lost …
In the end, Tang Rou wasn't able to complete her vow of one versus three in five rounds. Chen Guo couldn't even squeeze out a smile, but when Tang Rou came down, she was still able to faintly smile at everyone. Just like in every previous round of the group arena, after she lost and came down. That smile meant that everyone didn't need to worry about her, but if they didn't worry now, when would they? Five rounds had passed, there was no more chance!
Seeing Tang Rou still smile like this, Chen Guo felt even worse. She wanted to go up and say something, but she didn't know what to say. Tang Rou silently sat down in her seat, a trace of exhaustion on her face. Thirty-five days of crazy training. Every time she went on stage, she had put in a crazy amount of effort. This time, against the powerhouse Micrograss, she had taken down two players in a row, and then she had been defeated so quickly by Wang Jiexi.
Was it all over?
Chen Guo felt her nose sting. She looked at Tang Rou again. She had her head up, just like always, watching the replay on the electronic screen. It was all footage of the matches she had just finished.
Ye Xiu stood up, but he didn't say anything to Tang Rou. He continued to follow the flow of the match, giving instructions to the next player to go on stage. Beside Ye Xiu, Chen Guo felt like she couldn't hear anything.
Happy's second player in the group arena was Baozi. In many people's eyes, he was a player with the same characteristics as Wang Jiexi. This time, he faced Wang Jiexi, and the result was a quick defeat.
After defeating two opponents in a row, Vaccaria's health had been very limited. The crowd was already staring with wide eyes.
Everyone had been watching to see if Tang Rou could take on three at once, but in the end, the tables had turned like this?
Fang Rui, in the midst of everyone's guesses, went on stage …
The result of the group arena was Micrograss's victory.
The dead silence at the scene belonged only to the Happy supporters. The Micrograss fans who had come to support the away team were excited and cheered wildly. Pan Lin, who was watching the live broadcast, was a little incoherent.
"This … this is really …" Pan Lin organized his words. "Just as Tang Rou defeated the two members of Micrograss, and everyone was wondering if she could create a miracle, Wang Jiexi, the captain of Micrograss Battle Team, Wang Jiexi, the magician Wang Jiexi, cleanly defeated all three of them, telling everyone that this was impossible! Micrograss's record of never being 1v3 continues to be maintained. Wang Jiexi truly deserves to be called one of the most reliable players in the entire Alliance. A great reversal! "
The excitement of the Micrograss fans flooded the entire venue.
Tang Rou did not manage to complete the 1v3, and the match was turned around by the opponent instead. Happy's morale was at an all-time low.
What would happen in the following team competition? It was hard for anyone to focus on this matter. Everyone couldn't help but worry about Tang Rou's future. On the other hand, Micrograss's morale was raised to the peak after Wang Jiexi's 1v3 reversal of the group arena. Happy lost to Micrograss in the end, and the match ended with a score of 2-8.
Happy's loss to Micrograss wasn't really big news. The most talked about part of the match was Tang Rou's promise of a 1v3. This was also one of the main reasons why the live broadcast had picked this match. Now, it was time for the dust to settle. The post-match press conference was a phenomenon. The reporters had already gathered and were discussing the match. Some were regretful, and some were gloating.
Esports Time's reporter, Ruan Cheng, obviously wouldn't miss this press conference. It could even be said that he was the star of this press conference. Right now, he was like a victor, proudly shuttling through the crowd of reporters. He chatted with one, chatted with another, and left his hearty laughter everywhere.
"Are you happy?" Suddenly, Ruan Cheng heard someone beside him say this. He turned his head and saw that the other person was staring at him.
"Are you happy to see an excellent player being forced to retire from the pro scene because of this kind of reason?" Seeing Ruan Cheng turn to look at him, Chang Xian said word by word.
Even though he was the reporter who had the closest relationship with Happy, Chang Xian was still a junior among these people. His status and identity were far from being on par with Esports Time's head writer, Ruan Cheng. But right now, Chang Xian mustered up his courage and asked Ruan Cheng in an interrogative tone.
"Haha." Ruan Cheng laughed. "Everyone needs to be responsible for their own choices. As for me, I'm very happy to see a player end up like this because of her own arrogant words and actions. Of course, I'd rather see her learn from this, correct her mistakes, and continue to improve. Would you really force her to retire because of this kind of thing? Haha. "
"That's right. Take responsibility for your own words and actions. Everyone is very willing to accept a sincere apology!" Another reporter who also didn't like Tang Rou came out to support Ruan Cheng's words.
Looking at these hypocritical seniors, Chang Xian felt disgusted. These people always put themselves on the moral high ground, casually ordering others around as if doing things that didn't conform to their will was wrong. Right now, they were all speaking as if they were doing it for Tang Rou's sake, but Chang Xian knew very well that they just wanted to see Tang Rou embarrassed. They just wanted to see this tough player bow her head in front of them to show the authority of their words.
Chang Xian didn't want to see Tang Rou bow her head in front of these people, but he didn't want to see Tang Rou leave the pro scene even more.
"They're here, Happy's players are here." Someone shouted, and all of the reporters got into position. Ruan Cheng smiled and tidied up his appearance. He had the attitude of a victor and was ready to enjoy this night.
Ye Xiu, Fang Rui, Chen Guo, and Tang Rou. Happy had these four people attending the press conference. The reporters were a little excited. Before, they were worried that Tang Rou wouldn't attend, but now it seemed that this girl was quite responsible!
Not bad, bow your head! Apologize!
As long as you showed an attitude, everyone would be very happy to accept it.
Seeing Happy and the other three take their seats, the reporters were all eager, but in the end, they all looked at Ruan Cheng. After all, he was the one who had started this incident. At this time, they still had to give him some face and let him finish this topic.
"Ahem!" Ruan Cheng obviously wouldn't give up this opportunity. After being signaled to start, he elegantly stood up and asked the question.
"Unfortunately, Happy's situation was reversed." Ruan Cheng was unhurried and said a meaningless opening.
"Yes, it's a pity." Ye Xiu continued.
"I'm even more sorry for Miss Tang Rou. She was only one step away from completing a 1v3." Ruan Cheng smiled and went straight to the point.
Tang Rou sat in her seat. She didn't look like she couldn't wait to reflect, nor did she look like she had lost her soul. She sat there properly, just like every time she attended a press conference.
What was the meaning of this?
Many of the reporters were already muttering in their hearts.
Oath?
To be honest, not many people took this too seriously. Tang Rou was a player with good looks and strength. Her value in the pro scene was immeasurable. So-called oaths couldn't be enforced. For the sake of the most immediate benefits, at this time, no matter what, they had to do PR, right? Even if it was the "for love," "for the team," "for the fans," and so on that had been exposed by Ruan Cheng, when there was no other way, in order to protect the benefits, they would very likely say it shamelessly!
But now, with this kind of calmness, this kind of calmness, as if there was no such thing, what was she trying to do? Was she going to pretend to have amnesia?
Everyone looked at Ruan Cheng. Stop fooling around, hurry up!
Ruan Cheng was indeed a little confused. At this time, this player actually didn't seem like she was lowering her head in front of him?
What an infuriating guy!
Ruan Cheng's mood became a little worse, so he sped up his pace.
"If I'm not wrong, we've just reached the fifth round of the agreement of five rounds. Although Miss Tang Rou is only one step away, she still hasn't completed a 1v3. Miss Tang Rou seemed to have said that if she couldn't complete it within five rounds, she would quit, right? "
Ruan Cheng had originally wanted Tang Rou to take the initiative to step forward, admit her mistake, and beg for forgiveness. But in the end, she just sat there indifferently, as if she wouldn't care if no one called her out. Ruan Cheng couldn't take it anymore. He directly brought out the promise of quitting before five rounds.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Tang Rou.
Tang Rou smiled. "Quitting? I don't agree, you can continue. "
I don't agree, you can continue?
What was this?
All the reporters were in an uproar. Even Ruan Cheng was stunned. Chang Xian also didn't expect Tang Rou to use such a method.
She didn't lower her head, but she also didn't quit. What could he do?
Chang Xian didn't expect that this beauty would actually be a bachelor. To put it bluntly, she was obviously going to go back on her word. This, this, this … was too self-destructive, wasn't it?
Credibility, no matter where it was, was very important. The words that were said, the water that was spilled, could be used to find such a shameful and ridiculous reason to cover it up. In the end, it was necessary to find an explanation to let oneself have a position.
But Tang Rou didn't give a position. She just said: I don't agree.
Yes!
If the contestant didn't agree, no one could force them to retire. This reason was really strong. But in this way, it could be said that her image was completely destroyed. No matter how good her image was, it couldn't be saved. Character was always the most important.
"You don't agree?" Ruan Cheng clearly didn't expect such a retort. His voice was sharp, but he didn't know how to continue. "Shameless!"
Ruan Cheng couldn't hold it in. Of course, it wasn't good to use such insulting words to scold. They, as writers, were also very good at scolding people in a roundabout way. But now, they really couldn't hold it in. This was shameless. There was no more accurate word than this.
"Whatever you say. I will still continue. Thank you, "Tang Rou said.
Thank you? Thank your sister! The reporters were angry. Were you making fun of us?
