A fair and square battle to determine victory and defeat?
Compared to Wei Chen, Chen Guo trusted Su Mucheng's words more. But then again, Chen Guo couldn't really tell the difference between upright and shameless from the match.
Crusader's Trial!
At this moment, Bai Shu suddenly used a high-level skill. At an extremely close distance, Tide rushed forward with Charge. The Knight's sword and shield in his hands danced.
Shining Cut!
Lord Grim dashed forward with a cold light.
However, Crusader's Trial wasn't a skill that couldn't be controlled. As Lord Grim dashed to the right, Bai Shu had Tide cut to the left.
Crusader's Trial's speed was the same as Charge. It wouldn't lose to Shining Cut. Even though the first part missed, the second part smashed towards Lord Grim.
Charge!
Ye Xiu once again used a movement skill. Lord Grim changed directions and ran again, dodging the second part.
Colliding Stab!
Shadow Clone Technique!
Slide Kick!
Ye Xiu continuously used movement skills, but Lord Grim was still unable to escape from Tide. Bai Shu's movements were fast and accurate. Every time, Tide's Crusader's Trial would be able to follow. The audience was dumbstruck as they watched the two characters run around in a daze in a small area. Ye Xiu was clearly using different skills from different classes, but he was able to use so many skills in one go that it was hard to believe that he was using so many skills in succession. It was too smooth. On the other hand, Bai Shu was using a single skill. However, he was attacking after the enemy. He was chasing after Ye Xiu's movements. To be able to stick so close to him, his technique was quite terrifying.
He changed directions several times in succession, all in the blink of an eye. Sometimes, before a skill finished, he would have already started using another skill. After the last Slide Kick, the attentive players noticed that Lord Grim's first skill, Shining Cut, wasn't ready yet.
Lord Grim's low-level skills had already been sorted out by the players. They were the Assassin's Shining Cut, the Knight's Charge, the Berserker's Colliding Stab, the Sharpshooter's Slide Kick, and the Ninja's Shadow Clone Jutsu.
Five skills, if used in rotation, would be enough under normal circumstances. However, in today's battle, Ye Xiu was forced by Bai Shu to use five skills in a row, but he still couldn't escape. The Level 75 Crusader's Trial could deal up to nine hits. Currently, Tidal had only dealt five hits. There were still four more hits to go.
Did Ye Xiu add some high level movement skill to the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella this time? For example, teleportation? That was what many players were thinking. However, those who paid attention to Lord Grim's skill status suddenly discovered that apart from the five movement skills, Lord Grim's skill tree, Snap Trap, was also on cooldown.
Cooldown meant that it could be used, but when?
No one had time to ponder over this question. The pace of the battle was too fast. Tide chased after Lord Grim at the sixth section of the Crusader's Trial. But then, with a "Ka" sound, Tide could still swing his weapon, but he couldn't take a single step forward.
Snap Trap activated just like that. Everyone was dumbstruck. Apart from those who paid attention to the skill tree, no one else was prepared for it at all. Looking at the position of the Snap Trap, it seemed to have been placed when Lord Grim was Slide Kick.
Snap Trap could only restrict movement, but it couldn't interrupt skills. Tidal could continue his Crusader's Trial, but he could only stay where he was. Lord Grim nimbly jumped back, and Tidal's attack couldn't reach him. Ye Xiu was just about to counterattack, when Tidal's sword suddenly flew out of his hand, heading straight for Lord Grim's face.
Spirit Guidance!
To throw a weapon, it was naturally the Exorcist skill, Spirit Guidance. Exorcists and Knights were both Priest classes, so they could learn low-level skills from each other.
This attack came a bit too suddenly. Happy's audience cried out in surprise. However, Lord Grim rolled in time, dodging the attack.
Grenades, Shurikens, Mechanical Seeker, Lord Grim randomly threw them at Tidal as he rolled. Tidal, whose movement was still restricted by Snap Trap, obviously couldn't dodge, but he had a shield in his hand. He immediately crouched down, the Silver Life covering his entire body. The grenades and Mechanical Seeker's explosion were all blocked by the shield, and the Shurikens bounced to the side with a "ding".
"See, now he's playing dirty!" Wei Chen shouted excitedly.
He wasn't talking about Tidal crouching behind the shield, nor was he talking about Lord Grim's series of skills being dirty. Clearly, in his eyes, these were far from enough. Wei Chen was calling it dirty because Ye Xiu had let Lord Grim get as close to the ground as possible.
When Bai Shu used his shield to cover himself, he was very careful to leave some room for himself. But now that Ye Xiu had Lord Grim crouch on the ground, Tidal's shield didn't leave enough room for him to see. He couldn't see his target, so he subconsciously lowered his shield. Then, he heard a gunshot.
Bai Shu's reaction was really fast. He immediately raised his Silver Life to protect his head, but then he heard a "pu" sound. He had been hit …
Bai Shu looked down in disbelief and saw that Tidal's foot had been hit by a bullet. There originally wasn't an opening, but just now, he had subconsciously raised his shield to protect his head. In his haste, he had created a small opening, but who would have thought that the opponent had actually grasped it …
No, it shouldn't have been grasped. Bai Shu had only raised his shield when he heard the gunshot. In other words, the opponent had been close to the ground and had calculated that he wouldn't be able to see the attack. If he had only heard the sound, he would have thought that the gunshot was aimed at his head, so he raised his shield …
Was it possible to calculate to such an extent?
Bai Shu was astonished.
He had only started playing Glory after leaving the country. He played on the European server and then entered the English Pro League. As a pro player, he could be considered a native of Europe. However, he was still a Chinese, so he still paid a bit of attention to the Glory scene in China. However, because of his mindset from soccer, basketball, and other large-scale sports, he didn't have a high opinion of the Glory scene in China. As a result, he only paid attention to it to satisfy his curiosity. He didn't take it seriously.
Until Team 301 officially sent him an invitation. This made him both surprised and proud. He didn't think that he would be able to attract the attention of the Chinese scene while playing in another continent. It seemed that his skill and fame were quite good!
Because of his closeness to his home country, Bai Shu was moved by the blueprint that Team 301 had described to him. When he found out that Team 301 wasn't in a good situation at the time, he wasn't disappointed. Instead, he was excited that he would become the savior of the world.
As a result, he returned to China and joined Team 301. He began to adapt to the Glory scene in China, helping Team 301 establish a new tactical system.
Many of these were tactics and techniques that Bai Shu had learned from Europe. After combining them with Team 301, Team 301's record improved greatly. They continued to win in a row, attracting everyone's attention.
Bai Shu was in a good mood. He felt that Europe's skill level was higher after all. After he joined, Team 301 immediately turned the tables around. Originally, they were only a dozen or so points away from the top eight, but they quickly squeezed their way in. It seemed that they would be able to achieve great things.
However, at the end of the season, Team 301 was still a bit far from Bai Shu's goal of sweeping the Alliance. However, Bai Shu wasn't discouraged. After all, he had only joined Team 301 for half a season. The two sides still needed to get used to each other to reach their best condition. In this half a season, he had already turned Team 301 around. Bai Shu was already very satisfied with what he had accomplished. After all, in the second half of the season, Team 301 had only lost to two opponents. The first was Wind Howl, who had suddenly decided to play man to man. Team 301 hadn't been prepared for this and lost. The second was the current strongest team in the Alliance, Samsara. Bai Shu recognized their strength. It would be difficult for Team 301 to beat them.
Apart from this, the famous teams in the Alliance, such as Tyranny, Blue Rain, Micrograss, and so on, had all lost to Team 301. In Bai Shu's eyes, these teams were all about the same. No one could say that they were much stronger than the other.
This was the case for the team, but in terms of individual players, Bai Shu hadn't seen anyone that could make him feel afraid. The so-called number one Knight, Xu Bin, had apparently come from Team 301. However, after a 1v1, Bai Shu had won easily, feeling that Xu Bin was only so-so.
Finally, in this final round, Team 301 met Happy.
Ye Xiu, 36 consecutive wins in the individual competition. Just this record alone made Bai Shu not dare to underestimate this person. He wanted to know more about him, and he also knew that this person had such a legendary history.
But wasn't he a bit old?
Whether it was in China, Europe, or anywhere else, the age of esports players were all about the same. Ye Xiu was currently 27 years old. No matter where he went in the esports circle, he was a true veteran.
How could such a veteran be able to win consecutive wins in the individual competition?
When Bai Shu had first arrived and heard about this win streak, he couldn't quite understand it. Then, he heard about this person's unspecialized playstyle, as well as his strange weapon, which made him quite curious.
At that time, he had already made up his mind. This Ye Xiu had to be taught a lesson. In the end, Team 301 and Happy didn't meet until Round 38, all the way until the end of the regular season. Only then did Bai Shu realize a long-cherished wish he had when he first arrived.
In this half of the season, he had personally seen Ye Xiu and Lord Grim's matches, and had made ample preparations. That extremely fast movement skill that gave many people headaches, hadn't Bai Shu been able to follow it closely?
But in the process, he had fallen into a trap that he didn't know when.
And then, he had been hit by a bullet that had completely seen through his thoughts.
Was this the 36 consecutive wins in the individual competition … the top player in the country?
