1 to 0.
Tyranny was leading in their home game.
This was a result that was not worth making a fuss about. However, Wind Howl had lost to their core player, Tang Hao, while Tyranny had won to Wind Howl's former core player, Lin Jingyan. The implications of this match were much more significant.
However, in the stadium, the cheers and applause from Tyranny's fans weren't too exaggerated. After all, the implications of this match revolved around Wind Howl's past and present. Tyranny's fans didn't have much of a deep understanding of this match. But what about Wind Howl's fans? Wind Howl's fans looked very lonely in the already empty away team stands. Some of them had even gotten up and left the stadium after watching the first individual competition of the entire match.
Lin Jingyan returned to the player area and received his teammates' blessings for his victory. In many people's eyes, defeating Tang Hao must have been a very satisfying way to vent, right?
However, Lin Jingyan didn't seem too excited. This player, who had always been gentle and polite, only smiled and returned to his seat.
As for Wind Howl's side?
He didn't look again.
Even though he missed the past and his original character, Demon Subduer, the past was the past. Even though he was in the twilight years of his career, since he hadn't reached the end of his path, there was still a future.
His future was here … Lin Jingyan clutched Dark Thunder's account card in his hand.
At the same time, in another arena, it was also the first round of the individual competition. At this moment, it was almost time to determine the winner.
Blue Rain vs. Micrograss.
Lu Hanwen vs. Gao Yingjie.
These were the two most eye-catching players of the new generation. One had been thrown into the main roster and had to struggle through the cruel pro scene. The other had been carefully nurtured and gradually adapted to the environment.
They had used different methods, but neither had affected their growth into outstanding pro players. This season, these two had shed their immaturity and become two iconic figures of the Alliance's new generation. Right now, they were fighting for their team's victory in the 1v1 arena.
Formless Phantom Blade!
Lu Hanwen's Drifting Cloud released a high-level skill. As one of the few greatsword Blade Masters in the Alliance, although Flowing Cloud's sword speed was somewhat slow, the area it covered was even more vast. The silver greatsword, Flame Shadow, drew a clear trajectory under this slightly slower sword speed, forcefully dragging Kind Wood, who was about to fly away on his broom, down from the air.
"Where are you running!" Lu Hanwen's message was still flooding the public chat. This youth seemed to have endless energy, forever able to make people feel endless passion.
In comparison, Gao Yingjie wasn't as flashy, but he, who had grown up under the care, could feel the expectations of his team and his seniors. His desire to win, he wasn't any weaker than Lu Hanwen's. And his performance on stage, he was even more thorough.
Although he was a Greatsword Blade Blade Blade Master, Gao Yingjie Yingjie. A Greatsword Blade Master's attacks were stronger, but the sacrifice for this was a reduction in attack speed. This was the weakness of a Greatsword Blade Master, and it was also an area that could be used to break through!
Disperse Powder!
Kind Tree opened his hand, and magic powder shot out. It could dispel status effects, but more importantly, it could reduce the target's movement speed. As a low-level skill, the Disperse Powder's movement speed reduction wasn't very strong, but to the already slow Drifting Cloud, it was no different from rubbing salt on his wound.
Hit!
When the Disperse Powder hit him, Flowing Cloud's attacks immediately slowed down. However, in order to hit the target, Gao Yingjie was prepared to let Kind Tree take a hit. But at this moment...
Immortal Guides the Way!
The attack of Formless Phantom Blade was decisively stopped by Lu Hanwen, and he switched to Immortal Guides the Way.
Hit!
The powerful Blow Away effect sent Mu En flying in an instant. Drifting Cloud didn't chase after him. Disperse Powder was a bit difficult for a Greatsword Blade Master like Drifting Cloud. He just wanted to buy some time, so he could quickly get through this effect.
It was just that this low-level skill's effect wasn't very strong, but it had a long duration of 10 seconds.
10 seconds!
The distance that Immortal Guides the Way sent him flying wasn't something that Kind Tree would need 10 seconds to get back. Gao Yingjie definitely wouldn't waste those 10 seconds. After being chased by the Blow Away, Kind Tree Quick Recovered and landed on the ground. Before he could even straighten up, his broom was already beside him.
10 seconds?
Kind Tree didn't even need 2 seconds to get back!
Frost Powder!
Another wave of Frost Powder was sent out, but this skill wasn't a direct attack. Instead, it temporarily applied an attribute effect to his weapon.
Morning Dew!
This was the name of Kind Tree's Silver weapon. After being covered in Frost Powder, it faintly flashed with a blue light. As he swept it through the air, ice crystals fell to the ground.
Attack!
Witches were very strong in close combat.
Even though they mainly relied on normal attacks, through the Magic Powder that could change the weapon's attributes, as well as the Broom Mastery that allowed him to freely fly and swing his broom six times in the air, normal attacks in the hands of a Witch weren't normal at all.
"You want to decide the victor like this?!" Lu Hanwen's message popped up in the chat.
Earthquake Sword!
Drifting Cloud brandished his Greatsword and used a Spellblade skill. Immediately after, a sword radiance flashed and another Dao-Drawing Chop was launched.
The vertical attack of Earthquake Sword and the horizontal attack of Sword Draw, as well as the attack range of Drifting Cloud's Greatsword Blade Master, these two skills crisscrossed into a large cross, nailing towards Kind Tree. This move was very sudden, and the combination of the two skills was perfect.
But...
"Attack speed..." Yu Wenzhou sighed from the sidelines.
Slow... This flaw was deeply engraved in Yu Wenzhou's heart. And right now, Drifting Cloud's beautiful attack, because of its slow speed, had left behind a few openings.
But even if there were openings, would the opponent be able to grasp them?
There were some flaws that required a very high level of judgement and control in order to catch them. For example, the openings in Drifting Cloud's two skills crisscrossed. Even though Yu Wenzhou could see them, if he had to control Kind Tree to dodge them, it would be difficult for him.
Could he dodge them?
There wouldn't be a problem.
On Micrograss's side, Wang Jiexi had already made a silent judgment when he saw this attack.
Gao Yingjie should have been able to see this opening and should have been able to grasp it.
But there was a difference between should and actually being able to do it.
But Gao Yingjie didn't disappoint Wang Jiexi.
He, who carried Micrograss's hopes and future, accurately grasped this opportunity. Kind Tree lightly swayed in midair, suddenly passing through the two skills of the Greatsword.
Whoosh!
Morning Dew swung down, hitting Drifting Cloud.
Magic Powder's effects couldn't stack, but Ice Powder's new magic effect was still a speed reduction and a chance to freeze, which only made Drifting Cloud even more uncomfortable.
Victory and defeat had been decided...
Those who were watching the match had already made their judgments.
Some sighed, some were happy.
The experience of victory and defeat was always divided into two extremes.
Victory and defeat had been decided between the two new generation players. With Gao Yingjie's victory, Micrograss had taken the lead in their away game. And on the other stage, the two seniors from the previous generation had yet to decide a victor.
Clang!
A loud sound.
The collision of weapons brought out the impact of skills and light. The two characters were fiercely thrown to the side, each of them falling to the ground in a sorry state.
"How savage! You're fighting with your life on the line. Aren't you afraid of your hands breaking? " Lord Grim flipped over and stood up, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. Then, Ye Xiu's message popped up in the public chat.
"Your record ends here," Sun Zheping coolly replied in the chat, Another Summer of Sleep's sword pointed at Lord Grim.
"Don't brag. Last round, Old Lin said the same thing. Do you know what happened next?" Ye Xiu said.
"Old Lin? Weren't you guys fighting Blue Rain last round? "
"Last round, last round," Ye Xiu said.
Wild Blood Strike!
Sun Zheping decisively ended the banter, and Another Summer of Sleep directly opened the path. The sword light turned into a bloody shadow, slashing straight at Lord Grim.
Lord Grim hurriedly dodged. The bloody shadow slammed into the ground, sending rubble flying. Suddenly, it shot towards Lord Grim.
Whirlwind Slash!
Another Summer of Sleep's sword stirred up a whirlwind, sweeping up the rubble and smashing it towards Lord Grim.
Happy was on home turf. Ye Xiu's map choice was naturally a simple 1v1 map. But who would have thought that this time, the opponent would be the one attacking wildly, pressuring Ye Xiu so much that he couldn't breathe. The unspecialized blitz that no one in the Alliance could block actually didn't have a chance to start.
Retreat!
Retreat again!
Under the fierce attacks, Lord Grim kept retreating until he had no more time to retreat. Another Summer of Sleep's greatsword finally smashed into his body. But in that instant, Lord Grim's body suddenly scattered like flower petals. Another Summer of Sleep's sword slashed, but it passed through his body. The Lord Grim in front of him was just an illusion.
Shadow Clone Technique?
No, it wasn't this time.
It was Shadow Steps!
The four Lord Grim's surrounded Another Summer of Sleep, their swords flashing. Which one was the real one? At this point, there was no point in deciding. The key problem was that Lord Grim had finally started his attack rhythm.
Victory still belonged to Ye Xiu in the end.
The moment he put down his mouse, he let out a long sigh. He had been forced into a tight corner this round, and he had almost lost. It was hard to imagine that his opponent was someone with a serious hand injury. This guy was playing more and more recklessly. Could it be that half a season's worth of battles had completely ignited his passion?
But it was really a pity that he only played one individual match every round, and sometimes even had to rest. The weight of each match wasn't enough to satisfy him, right?
That's right...
It wasn't satisfying!
Sun Zheping looked at Another Summer of Sleep on the screen, lying on the ground and looking up at the sky. His character's eyes were probably filled with unwillingness!
Every match... if only he could play a few more minutes...
