Keep his word? He said he would go easy, so he had to go easy?
As expected, the crowd booed, but Song Qiying's expression was a bit strange. His reaction was very quick. His gaze couldn't help but turn towards the player seats below the stage, towards Happy's side.
Speaking of keeping his word, Happy's side seemed to have the biggest joke of all time, right?
Happy's Tang Rou, after failing to fulfill his promise of a 1v3, didn't keep his word and quit Glory!
Except, Ye Xiu said he would keep his word, but he said he would go easy, so he went easy...
Going easy wasn't a very nice thing to do. Even in the All-Stars, most people just didn't use their full strength. It was rare for Ye Xiu to be so obvious, so open, to the point where he even said "GG."
Keeping his word, but doing something like going easy, was Ye Xiu being sarcastic?
Apart from Song Qiying, it didn't seem like many people immediately thought of Tang Rou. The Tyranny fans' hatred for Ye Xiu was very solid. At this moment, the Rookie Challenge Competition was over. They were currently gathering their firepower to "send off" Ye Xiu. No matter how you looked at it, the opening of the first day of the All-Star Weekend seemed like it was specially set up for Tyranny fans. First, it was a commemoration of their Tyranny captain Han Wenqing's ten years of hardship, making Tyranny fans cry. Then, it became a solo event for Tyranny's most hated player, Ye Xiu. The rookies lined up to challenge him.
Even though Ye Xiu had made "GG," "1v2," and other unprecedented scenes, it had to be said that the first day of the All-Star Weekend was very lively.
The All-Star Weekend wouldn't arrange a formal press conference. The reporters stationed by the major media outlets all had their own special seats. But the only ones that could enter the stadium and directly interact with the players were the media outlets. For example, the Esports Channel, which was responsible for the TV broadcast, and the most authoritative Esports Home. However, most of them were just spectators in the arena. They would only go and chat with the contestants when the time was right. A serious interview would definitely not be welcomed in this kind of situation, and no one would want to be unlucky enough to do so.
What about today? Of course, the reporters were there to collect the opinions of the players from the various teams, such as the opinions of the ten-year Han Wenqing, and the opinions of Ye Xiu, who had been called out by the rookies and had even said "GG."
Of course, the content wouldn't be too serious. Everything that happened in the All-Stars was just for fun. Even if it was "GG" or "throw the game", if someone really took this matter seriously, they would be out of their minds. To be honest, to the reporters, they were more than happy to see Ye Xiu create these unexpected situations. They were already tired of writing about the rookie challenge scene of respecting the old and loving the young.
After the organizers arranged a few performances, the first day of the All Star Weekend finally came to an end. A pair of mortal enemies, Han Wenqing and Ye Xiu, became today's two main characters. Han Wenqing's ten-year perseverance left behind a moving classic. Ye Xiu's acceptance of the seven rookies' challenge left behind a farce.
Some of the older Glory players couldn't help but recall that Ye Xiu had been challenged by the rookies a long time ago. It seemed that he had also been challenged by seven rookies.
But at that time, Ye Xiu had sincerely fought seven matches with the rookies. It wasn't like today.
The older the ginger, the spicier it was. Ye Xiu had already demonstrated this to the fullest.
"You're really something …" After the event ended and the crowd dispersed, quite a few of the pro players who were familiar with Ye Xiu came over to ridicule him.
Among these people, Chen Guo felt dazzled. In the past, these people had all been high and mighty, but now, they were all gathered around her. Everyone was very ordinary. Looking at them like this, it was impossible to imagine how their characters were in Glory.
Team Void's Li Xun, who loved one-hit kills, was currently complaining to Team Royal Style's Tian Sen about his toothache. Tian Sen seemed to have given him a phone call, as if recommending a dentist.
Team Misty Rain's captain, the heroine Chu Yunxiu, was currently complaining to City X's landlord, Zhang Xinjie, that the Hot and Sour Rice Noodles he recommended last time weren't tasty at all.
"It's too sour!" Chu Yunxiu bared her teeth as if the taste was still there.
"You added too much vinegar!" Zhang Xinjie said sincerely.
"How much should I add?" Chu Yunxiu asked.
"Seven tenths of a spoonful. Just use that little plastic spoon over there," Zhang Xinjie said.
Spoon? Did anyone use a spoon to make vinegar? Seven tenths?
Chu Yunxiu bared her teeth again. She directly abandoned Zhang Xinjie and came over to find Su Mucheng, who she had an extremely good relationship with.
Team Miracle's Guo Shao and Team Tyranny's Song Qiying. Who knew how these two youngsters got together. Among the many seniors, the two were very low-key as they whispered to each other. Their gazes would occasionally flash towards Happy and pause on Ye Xiu for a moment. It seemed like the two were discussing how to topple the mountain that was Ye Xiu.
Chen Guo discovered that the only topics that revolved around Glory were the rookies. What the old players talked about were all very common things.
301's Yang Cong and Micrograss's Wang Jiexi were talking about the recent housing market.
Jiang Botao and Xu Bin were talking about European football.
Tang Hao was complaining to Zou Yuan about the weather in City N. He had originally been in Team Hundred Blossoms. City K was also his hometown. After transferring to Wind Howl, he had moved to City N, where Wind Howl was located. It had already been almost two years, but it seemed like he still didn't like the new city too much.
The topics were so ordinary that Chen Guo could truly feel that these … were all real, living creatures.
In the long passageway, the players didn't rest and directly walked out of the field. Afterwards, they naturally said their goodbyes and boarded their respective team's cars, driving to their respective hotels. Among them, there were a few players who were staying in the same hotel. They immediately started randomly hitching rides, continuing their unfinished conversation.
Compared to their previous encounters in the competition, the players were much more relaxed. Chen Guo could clearly feel this.
The All Star Weekend was a pretty good event! Chen Guo, who was in the middle of it, thought with a smile.
The second day of the All-Star Weekend quickly arrived. Compared to the first day, the content of the second day was more substantial. Moreover, there was a certain degree of interaction with the live audience. Some of the live audience members would be selected to participate with the players on the field.
The first event was to use Glory characters to engage in some interesting confrontations. These were the mods created by the Glory game company every year during the All-Star Weekend. Afterwards, they would often be added to the game, enriching the game's content.
And what were these interesting confrontations about? The promotional materials for the All-Star Weekend had already been announced. The first event was Hot-Blooded Dodgeball!
It was called Dodgeball, but in reality, it wasn't strictly based on the rules of Dodgeball. From the content revealed in the promotional materials, it was probably more like a sandbag game played by the common folk.
The rules were that the participating teams would send out three players onto the field. Then, the two teams would each attack and defend for a round. Afterwards, the winner would be decided based on the time it took to complete the match. The event was organized into eight teams. Five of them would be pro teams, while the other three would be made up of the live audience members.
The players of the five pro teams quickly gathered on the field. Everyone took a look. They were Samsara, Thunder, Micrograss, Miracle, and Team Happy.
These five teams had been chosen with a lot of thought. Samsara was the leading team, while Thunder had an unexpectedly outstanding team. Micrograss was undefeatable in the group arena. Happy and Miracle were two new teams that had just entered the Alliance, but they had both performed unexpectedly. These were clearly the five teams that everyone was paying attention to.
These were just the players sent out by the five teams.
Samsara's vice-captain Jiang Botao led Assassin Wu Qi and Blade Master Du Ming.
Thunder's captain Xiao Shiqin personally went up. He led Elementalist Dai Yanqi and Sharpshooter Lu Yining, who had transferred from Team Misty Rain.
Micrograss's team consisted of Gao Yingjie, Liu Xiaobie, and Zhou Yebai.
Miracle's team consisted of Shen Jian, Guo Shao, and Battle Mage Jia Xing.
As for Happy's team, it consisted of Wei Chen, Baozi, and … the player who had yet to appear in the Alliance. His first appearance had been given to the All Stars — — Luo Ji.
Facing such a big stage for the first time, Luo Ji was clearly a bit scared. Even though he knew that this was just a game, he still couldn't help but be nervous. Standing on the field, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
"Calm down. Your boss is here!" Baozi patted his chest as he spoke to Luo Ji.
Having a companion by his side really did make Luo Ji less nervous. For the first time, Luo Ji felt that having Baozi by his side was pretty good.
There weren't many All Stars participating in the event. This was a deliberately low-key arrangement. First, it gave the other pro players a chance to participate. Second, it left the highest level of All Stars for the last day of the All Stars competition.
The five teams went on stage. Following that, it was time to draw the audience. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine lucky audience members were drawn. Each one of them couldn't help but ask a few questions about which team they supported, which player they liked, and so on. The nine of them spent quite a bit of time tossing and turning. Fortunately, there weren't any spectators who didn't know anything about Glory.
Afterwards, the nine lucky audience members were randomly divided into three groups. The audience began to randomly arrange their opponents.
Even though this was a style that had never appeared in Glory before, pro players had a solid foundation. It was very difficult for them to be defeated by normal players. The teams that were placed with the lucky audience members were already set for victory. However, there was only one more pro team. Adding on the fact that the teams were randomly arranged, there might not be three pro teams that would be lucky enough to draw the audience members.
Sure enough, in the end, two of the lucky audience members were drawn together. Micrograss was the only remaining lucky audience member. The other four pro teams were matched against each other.
"Haha, Samsara's winning streak is about to end." Under the interview of the host, the Happy Wei Chen looked at his opponents and spoke with complete confidence.
Happy opponents, Team Samsara.
