There were still six rounds left in Season 10, and the battle for the top eight had suddenly become more intense. Originally, everyone had thought that after 301 Degrees' strong rise to replace Wind Howl, the top eight would be decided. No one had expected Team Wind Howl to use such a ruthless method of fighting man to man, suddenly leading the way in the team competition.
After defeating Blue Rain in Round 26, Wind Howl had consecutively defeated 301 Degrees, Misty Rain, Void, and Hundred Blossoms.
Weakling Shrimp?
It wasn't a good time to mention this nickname. It was just that Wind Howl's strategy had only just begun to shine. In the first few rounds, they would still be able to hold on. Everyone still had their doubts.
At the end of Round 32, the commentator and guests had expressed their sympathy for the harsh schedule Hundred Blossoms had to face. But when everyone looked at it again, Wind Howl's following schedule wouldn't be easy either.
Wind Howl's opponents for the final six rounds were Thunderclap, Royal Style, Heavenly Justice, Parade, Happy, and Micrograss.
Of these six teams, three of them were in the top eight, so it wouldn't be easy.
But what was even more demonic was 301 Degrees' schedule. Their opponents for the final six rounds were Miracle, Samsara, Micrograss, Blue Rain, Seaside, and Happy.
This competition schedule was simply suffocating. Wind Howl only had to fight three of them in the top eight, but 301 Degrees? They could simply be considered top four.
And in the list of these two teams, there were two teams that appeared repeatedly, Micrograss and Happy.
Micrograss currently had 224 points and was in fourth place, 20 points behind Wind Howl and 301 Degrees. Their lead was relatively stable. But as for Team Happy, Team Happy didn't seem to be a very reliable team. They currently had 212 points, only eight points ahead of the other two teams. If they didn't gain the upper hand in a direct confrontation, they might actually be pulled down. Behind them, Hundred Blossoms was also eyeing them. If Hundred Blossoms performed well and made a comeback, it wasn't impossible for them to kick Happy out of the top eight.
Happy for his last six opponents. Apart from Wind Howl and 301 Degrees, the other two were Void, Lightly, Bright Green, and Thunderclap.
Their opponents were not weak either, especially Thunder. They were also one of the teams that had fallen into this quagmire. Team Thunder, who currently had 211 points, was one point behind Happy. For the final six rounds, Wind Howl, Misty Rain, Happy, Hundred Blossoms, Samsara, Miracle...
It was yet another grueling competition.
After analyzing the situation of the last six rounds, everyone was dumbstruck. Of the five teams involved in the battle for the top eight: Happy, Thunderclap, Wind Howl, 301 Degrees, and Hundred Blossoms, none of them had an easy schedule, and there were quite a few confrontations between them. No one dared to predict which of the five teams would be eliminated in the end.
Happy Big Boss Chen, after the thirty-second round, was a little anxious and sleepless.
He had thought that Happy would be able to enter the playoffs without any pressure. Who would have thought that it would be so difficult and intense in the end? Logically speaking, Happy had been playing quite well recently. After sending Luo Ji and Wei Chen up to train, they would sometimes lose 1 or 2 points, but a 9 or 8 point victory was still very beautiful! The only loss was in the away game against Misty Rain. They had won a huge 9 to 1, and so in an instant, the teams behind them had closed the gap. Perhaps it really was because the performance of the other teams had been too outstanding and too strong recently.
In the thirty-third round, Happy challenged Team Void in an away game.
Void was now 28 points behind the top eight teams. Under normal circumstances, they would have probably given up like Misty Rain. However, the battle for the top eight was a quagmire. Who knew how many teams would be completely defeated?
Void didn't want to give up, but if one were to count their match schedule, they would want to cry, but no tears would come out. In the last six rounds, they still had to play Happy, Hundred Blossoms, Radiant, Royal Style, Blue Rain, Tyranny...
However, there were some passionate fans of Void who drew an especially beautiful Blue Rain for them. The fans' plan was that Void would use their two consecutive home games to beautifully defeat Happy and Hundred Blossoms, their two direct opponents. Then, they would do their best to steal points from Radiant and Royal Style. After that, after four rounds, the situation would become clearer. And at this time, although Void would have to face Blue Rain and Tyranny, these two teams would definitely be in the playoffs by now. They might even let their main players rest and prepare for the playoffs. It might be very easy for Void to get points from these two teams.
This "Void's Rhythm of Counterattack" post became a hot topic. There were those who mocked it, but there were also those who supported it. After all, the analysis wasn't without basis. Void's match schedule seemed like a devil, but the last four rounds might not be too difficult. Similarly, if the other teams met the top four teams in the end, it might not be a tough battle. And the arrangement of the top four teams couldn't be said to be going easy on them. After an entire season of tough battles, in a situation where the overall situation was set, giving the main players more time to rest and wait for the playoffs to erupt was a very logical arrangement.
That was why the 33rd and 34th rounds were really crucial. And Void already had passionate fans to point out the right path for them, so they couldn't carry the chain, right? They also shouted their own slogan. In the next two home games, they had to win and leave behind a glimmer of hope for the playoffs.
The debates, comments, and analysis from all sides made Chen Guo somewhat anxious and worried. Especially when she saw that Happy's training schedule didn't seem to have any special adjustments, it made her feel even more uncertain. She actually wanted to say something. At such a crucial time, should they let Wei Chen and Luo Ji take a break as well? After all, entering the playoffs was the priority!
But looking at the recent pace of training and preparation, Ye Xiu didn't seem to be prepared to change his original intentions.
Should I go and talk to them?
Chen Guo hesitated because this kind of attitude at this time clearly showed that she didn't trust those two. Although it was a fact that the old and young duo were slightly weaker, if she didn't use them at such a crucial time, it would probably make them feel very uncomfortable, right? Perhaps Ye Xiu also had misgivings about this point, so he didn't say anything?
If those two fellows could take the initiative, then everyone would be happy. But looking at Wei Chen's shameless attitude, Chen Guo didn't dare to have too much hope. But in the end, Luo Ji wasn't Wei Chen. He had a clear understanding of himself and the situation. At this time, Luo Ji suggested during the pre-match meeting of the 33rd round, when Ye Xiu continued to arrange for him to play, whether or not they should make some adjustments first.
How sensible! Chen Guo was very touched. He didn't care about his personal gains and losses for the team. What a good kid. In comparison, that guy Wei Chen was really quite infuriating.
In the end, what Chen Guo didn't expect was that Ye Xiu bluntly rejected Luo Ji's suggestion.
"The current situation is very grim, but the playoffs will be even more so. If you want to avoid the current situation, then what about the playoffs? "Ye Xiu said.
"Uh..." Chen Guo wanted to say, "At least ensure that we enter the playoffs first," but after opening her mouth, she held back. All this time, she had only listened in on the tactical meetings. At most, she would ask when she didn't understand, but she had never given any ideas or made any suggestions. She knew that she had some skills, and she didn't want to be an idiot who gave advice to the experts. But this time, Chen Guo felt that it had nothing to do with strategy. It was just a kind of attitude. She wanted to say something, but when the words reached her mouth, she didn't know if it was a long-term habit or something else, but she subconsciously swallowed them back down.
But Ye Xiu seemed to already know what she was going to say. He turned his head to look at her and said, "Our goal is to win the championship! We need to have the courage to face any situation. Luo Ji, you're the same. This kind of competition is even more of a training for you. After this round, you have to be prepared to play in the team competition. "
"This is just a small situation. Calm down, calm down!" Wei Chen said like an old man.
Chen Guo was speechless, but at least she knew that Wei Chen didn't really have no bottom line at this kind of crucial moment. He understood what kind of choice Happy had to make at this kind of time. He and Luo Ji didn't play as a training opportunity for the rookies. They really wanted them to play a role in the playoffs. So from the beginning, Happy didn't want them to play during some meaningless garbage time. From now on, they were going to play to show their value. Because they were going to face the playoffs. From now on, they had to have the courage and belief to take on the responsibility.
"I understand." Luo Ji's heart was still uneasy, but he understood the logic behind it. Nervous? Nervous? Pressure? It didn't matter, because letting him play was to let him get used to this kind of nervousness, nervousness, and pressure. There were still six rounds left. He should carefully cherish this kind of opportunity. How could he retreat?
"Let me play!" Luo Ji expressed his determination, but his voice was still a little shaky because of his nervousness. He was really afraid. He was afraid that because he lost one or two points or even more, Happy wouldn't be able to enter the top eight in the end. But he had already shown the determination to face difficulties head-on. He was overcoming all of this.
"Okay." Ye Xiu nodded. "Then we'll follow the original plan. Work hard and strive for this victory. Let Void's rhythm of counterattacks end here."
"Ha …" Laughter rang out in the conference room. Clearly, Happy's members had also seen the recent trending post. A team that should have had the slightest chance of entering the top eight had actually become the most popular team. It had to be said that people nowadays were seeking novelties. They hoped to see the slightest thing become reality. In other words, it was a so-called miracle.
After the meeting, everyone went to pack their things. In the afternoon, they would be taking a flight to City X. Ye Xiu watched everyone leave one by one, but he turned around and went to Happy's technical and logistics department.
Guan Rongfei and a few technical staff members that Happy had recruited were working hard.
Pseudo Silver equipment!
This was the final definition that Ye Xiu and the others had for their Level 80 Orange equipment. After all, as long as it came out of the equipment editor, the final word would definitely be Silver. But because the attributes were intentionally lowered by one level, it was closer to Orange equipment of the same level. In the end, it was defined as pseudo Silver equipment by everyone.
Happy's material reserves were not enough to create more Level 75 Silver equipment. Next, they were prepared to use pseudo Silver equipment to fill in the gaps. But pseudo Silver equipment wasn't something that could be created just because they wanted to. Directly jumping from Level 70 to Level 80 was achieved through the accumulation of materials in Guan Rongfei's research. The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella itself required a large amount of consumables, but the other equipment didn't. So at this time, they had to think of a way to modify the blueprint to add more materials without destroying the equipment's attributes. At the same time, they had to directly push it to Level 80. This was the main difficulty in researching pseudo Silver equipment. And this point had already been proven to be feasible. Happy's current research was to see how many pseudo Silver equipment they could create.
