The climax had finally arrived. The entire stadium was excited.
To be honest, the question of who would be fighting against who wasn't particularly interesting. After all, there were so many rounds of the Alliance. It was possible to see teams fighting against each other in the Alliance.
For the All Stars, the most important thing was teamwork! The players who were usually on different teams only had this one chance to fight together. This sort of matchmaking was what everyone loved.
Who would be grouped together for the All Stars this time? The audience raised their heads and stared unblinkingly at the screen. The groups would only be revealed at the very last moment. Even the All Stars themselves wouldn't know beforehand.
First, Team A.
Zhou Zekai, Sun Xiang, Jiang Botao, Lu Boyuan. Four names popped up on the screen, followed by their characters.
It was Team Samsara. Team Samsara would never separate their teammates from the same team.
Team Samsara had four All Stars. This was the only team in the Alliance. No other team could compete with them in terms of numbers. Blue Rain and Micrograss were both three-player All Stars. Which team would be put up against Samsara?
Everyone's gazes shifted to the right half of the screen. Team B's name list was still blank.
The screen began to flicker!
Just like that, several rows of player and character names appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Following that, everyone was dumbstruck.
Han Wenqing, Zhang Xinjie, Ye Xiu, Su Mucheng.
!!!!
????
Tyranny's two and Happy's two formed a group of four equal to Samsara. However, the number of players wasn't the key. The key was, why would Tyranny and Happy be grouped together?
No one would have thought that this list wouldn't be revealed in an orderly manner. It would immediately cause a commotion. At first, the audience was stunned. Then, they burst into an uproar.
Han Wenqing, Ye Xiu?
These two were going to fight side by side?
Countless people felt as if their brains were about to crash. Something that they thought would never happen had finally become a reality in the All-Star Competition. In the past, in order to maintain the competitive nature of the All-Star Competition, Han Wenqing and Ye Xiu, Tyranny and Excellent Era, who were sworn enemies, would definitely be split between the two teams. But this time, in the All-Star Competition organized by Tyranny, Ye Xiu was brought into their camp and became Han Wenqing's teammate.
This … this was truly a brave gimmick!
However, for many of Tyranny's hardcore fans, this setting was unacceptable. There were even some curses in the crowd. This sort of arrangement definitely did not lack the organizers, which was Team Tyranny's intention. But Tyranny's fans did not want to blindly follow the team's wishes. Ye Xiu was their arch-enemy, their arch-enemy forever. How could this setting be changed?
Those who insisted on this were the hardcore fans. However, even more people felt that this sort of arrangement was quite interesting. These two opponents who had fought for ten years, when they stood side by side, what sort of awkward match would they play? Many people were already looking forward to it. All sorts of emotions filled the crowd. Then, Team Blue Rain's Yu Wenzhou, Huang Shaotian, and Gao Yingjie were assigned to Team A, while Micrograss's Wang Jiexi, Xu Bin, and Gao Yingjie were assigned to Team B. Basically, no one cared too much about this. This sort of arrangement was very normal. In the past few All-Star Competitions, these two teams had always been separated. On one hand, these two teams had conflicts. On the other hand, it was to balance the power of Team A and Team B. At this time, if Blue Rain and Micrograss were assigned to Team A and Team B, the balance of power would be heavily tilted. No matter what, they had to ensure that Team A and Team B were evenly matched.
After Blue Rain and Micrograss, Wind Howl's Tang Hao and Liu Hao joined Team A, while Hundred Blossoms' Yu Feng and Zou Yuan joined Team B. This sort of arrangement was more of a confrontation. Tang Hao was from Hundred Blossoms, while Liu Hao was from Ye Xiu's old team. Their pasts were now on Team B. As for Hundred Blossoms, Yu Feng was from Blue Rain's old team, so he was assigned to Team B. After seeing this arrangement, many people regretted that Happy's Fang Rui, Tyranny's Zhang Jiale, and Lin Jingyan hadn't been selected. Otherwise, this sort of grouping would have been an even more complicated mess.
Zhang Jiale would have stood together with Hundred Blossoms' remade Blood and Blossoms. Fang Rui, who had changed to a Qi Master, would have met with his former partner in crime, Lin Jingyan. The two would work together to take revenge on Team Wind Howl, who had abandoned them …
So many exciting things to watch couldn't be seen because these three players hadn't been selected for All-Stars. The audience could only feel regret.
After the two teams were divided, Void's Ghostblade Duo Li Xuan and Wu Yuce were assigned to Team A, while Misty Rain's Chu Yunxiu and Li Hua were assigned to Team B. After that, there were only two players left. In the end, Xiao Shiqin was assigned to Team A, while Yang Cong was assigned to Team B.
Looking at the two rows of names on the electronic screen, the most exciting thing was still the very beginning. Ye Xiu and Han Wenqing were going to fight together? The entire stadium was still talking about this topic. They didn't care about the other arrangements anymore.
After the names were announced, the 24 contestants were already standing in two rows on the field.
The things to watch were in the hearts of the players. For them, it was Ye Xiu's answer when he was asked who he wanted to team up with: it didn't matter.
The two teams had 12 players each. Using the regular season format, everyone could go on stage. After the name list was confirmed, Team A and Team B returned to the temporary battle seats that were specially set up for the two teams. At this moment, they were the two teams.
"Okay, now that the players of the two teams are in position, let them make some arrangements. The All-Star Competition is about to begin," the host shouted excitedly.
"Coach Li, what kind of lineups do you think the two teams will have?" The All-Star Weekend had always been broadcast live. When it came to the All-Star Competition, which seemed to be a match of the highest level, commentator Pan Lin and guest Li Yibo reappeared in the broadcast room.
"Uh … Actually, every year, there's a very important part of the All-Star Competition. That is … which team the healer is assigned to," said Li Yibo.
"That's right. For the past few years, the only healer that made it into the All-Star Competition was Zhang Xinjie," said Pan Lin.
"That's right. That's why Team A is facing a situation where they don't have a healer. In terms of team play, they should form an extremely explosive line-up. That way, they can suppress Team B's healer advantage. As for Team B, as long as they can form a stable team that can fully utilize their healer, then their chances of winning will definitely be higher than Team A. As for the individual competition and group arena, that'll be up to the rest of the players. " Li Yibo said a bunch of things. He talked about explosive and balanced lineups. In any case, he didn't mention a single name. How risky would that be? It would be too much of a slap in the face if it wasn't what he expected. With such a general description, no matter how he arranged the line-up, it would still be possible.
Li Yibo's answer was crafty, so Pan Lin naturally wouldn't expose him. He repeatedly said, "You're right." Then, the two of them watched the broadcast together.
"Hey, is there some sort of dispute going on over at Team B's side?" Pan Lin suddenly called out. "Director, director."
The screen zoomed in on Team B's side, but there was no set up to receive voice transmissions.
"Can someone go over and see what's going on?" Pan Lin called out.
"Is it a dispute between Ye Xiu and Han Wenqing?" Li Yibo looked at the screen. It seemed like the center of the dispute was Ye Xiu, so he thought of this possibility. But when he continued watching, it didn't seem like it was Han Wenqing who was at odds with him. It seemed like … everyone was targeting Ye Xiu.
"You think it'll be so easy to just have a one on one match? You're too naive. Stand back. "Micrograss's Wang Jiexi was talking to Ye Xiu.
"I've won 16 consecutive one on one matches. I'll go up and take the lead, then I'll take a point and suppress their arrogance. This is such a logical and brilliant arrangement. How is it naive? Wang Dayan, you better explain it to me!" Ye Xiu replied.
The other two Micrograss players both shrunk their necks. Of course they knew that their captain had this nickname, but how many people dared to call him that? The two of them stole glances at their captain, not knowing how he would react.
Wang Jiexi didn't seem to have much of a reaction. He just looked at everyone and said, "Let's vote. Those who agree to this guy's one on one, raise your hand."
"Vote for what! Does Micrograss use voting to manage things? "Ye Xiu said.
The others shrunk their necks again. The dispute between these two was a battle between gods! Xu Bin, Yu Feng, and Zou Yuan were all from the younger generation. Although they were also All-Stars, they had seniority and experience. They immediately felt that they were inferior to those two. They didn't even have the courage to go up and mediate. Everyone shrunk their necks and stole glances, but they were all looking at Han Wenqing. This person definitely had the qualifications to participate in this battle between gods.
"What are you all arguing about!" Unexpectedly, the first to shout was Chu Yunxiu.
"I'll go first for the one on one!" Chu Yunxiu yelled.
"There are three spots. What are you fighting for? I'll go first, you'll go second!" Ye Xiu said.
"Okay, I agree!" Chu Yunxiu nodded fiercely.
"And Mucheng," Ye Xiu arranged. Good jobs should go to him first.
"The three of you going to the team competition is really quite good," Wang Jiexi said.
"And then leave the one on one spot for you?" Ye Xiu said.
"Our Micrograss's … record in the group arena is quite good." Wang Jiexi's fox tail finally showed. In the end, they were just too lazy to perform in the team competition, which was the most difficult. They all dove into the shorter and faster individual competition. Ye Xiu was blatantly picking out the good jobs. As for Wang Jiexi, he was just stuffing in the players for the team competition. Then, his side could naturally move on to the individual competition.
Ye Xiu looked at him and was silent for a few seconds. Then, he suddenly turned his head to look at the others. "Like this, isn't the lineup set? Isn't it just right for the remaining people to go to the team competition? "
The remaining people were naturally Tyranny's two, Hundred Blossoms' two, Misty Rain's Li Hua, and 301's Yang Cong.
"Let's discuss the lineup!" Tyranny's Zhang Xinjie spoke calmly, as if he hadn't heard the previous argument at all.
