"Wang Jiexi has already done his best. Whether or not he can grasp the opportunity will depend on this kid." After Yu Wenzhou greeted the players from Excellent Era, he turned his head and continued speaking.
Huang Shaotian obviously understood what he meant. Wang Jiexi was going easy on him, but he couldn't go too far. He could only rely on adding two levels less skills and then rely on this small difference in damage output to create a weakness. If Gao Yingjie made a mistake, then Wang Jiexi clearly wouldn't be able to show any openings to guarantee his victory. Even though he was going easy on him, if Gao Yingjie wanted to win, he had to play flawlessly.
Would Gao Yingjie make a mistake?
The two of them, who knew the truth, watched the show with this mentality. However, among the audience, they weren't the only ones with this mentality.
Ye Xiu!
Of course, Yu Wenzhou's sudden question wasn't without reason. It was because he was certain that Ye Xiu would be able to see through this.
The layman watched for the excitement, while the expert watched for the skill.
In this match, the number of experts who could see through the skill was pitifully small.
"Bang!" The sound of another Lava Flask shattering rang out. The ground was corroded by the magic item, and in an instant, it turned into a sea of boiling lava.
"Oh …" At the same time, in two different positions in the stadium, there were two sighs of realization at the same time. One voice came from somewhere in the audience, while the other came from the pro players' seats. And on the pro players' side, even more people were quietly discussing the conclusion: Wang Jiexi was going to lose.
At this moment, Wang Jiexi's Witch had already been forced back to the edge of the map. There was no room for retreat. This Lava Flask had been thrown by Gao Yingjie's Witch. The lava scorched Wang Jiexi's character, and he had nowhere else to go. A Witch's AoE magic attack was very effective in this situation.
Wang Jiexi's Witch suddenly flew up, trying to rush out of the corner. However, Gao Yingjie, who had been taught by him, had already seen through his intentions. He flew up to block him. After throwing out another Acid Rain, he waved his broom and began fighting with Wang Jiexi.
Wang Jiexi's Witch didn't have the space to use any more skills after the continuous damage and continuous fighting. From this moment on, the deadlock had been broken. Wang Jiexi was at a complete disadvantage. And his character didn't have much health left. He clearly didn't have enough time to use any methods to escape this predicament.
Wang Jiexi didn't give up on his final attempt, but in the end, he was unable to reverse the situation. His Witch was swept away by Gao Yingjie's character and knocked to the ground, never to stand up again.
After a series of exclamations, there was a deathly silence. Not long after, some sparse sounds began to ring out. Under the influence of this applause, the sound became louder and louder. Even though the result of the match wasn't what many of the spectators had hoped for, no one could deny that this was a spectacular match.
Among the people who were applauding, there were even two people who stood up.
Yu Wenzhou in the player area.
Ye Xiu in the spectator area.
The brilliance in their eyes wasn't this match, but rather Wang Jiexi's efforts in this match.
By using skills that weren't fully buffed, he had written this match's script. The direction of the battle had been completely within his plan. What Yu Wenzhou and Huang Shaotian were worried about, Gao Yingjie's own mistakes, Wang Jiexi had already considered them.
When was Gao Yingjie most likely to make a mistake? Of course, it was at the end of the battle. When he realized that he was about to defeat a god-like figure in the Alliance, who was also the captain he respected the most, this shy and timid child's heart would definitely be greatly shaken. This hurdle, for him, was really a bit difficult.
However, Wang Jiexi had thought of this point early on. At the end of the battle, his character was forced to retreat into a corner. Forcing an opponent to retreat into a corner was an extremely basic method of attack for a Witch. Let alone Gao Yingjie, any pro player who was a Witch in the pro scene probably wouldn't make a mistake in that situation. Even if Gao Yingjie's mood was shaken, this simple and practiced situation was enough to help him overcome this hurdle. And so, he won in the end.
In the end, Yu Wenzhou still hadn't seen through it.
Wang Jiexi had done more than he had seen. He had even paved the way, minimizing the chances of Gao Yingjie making a mistake. It wasn't until Gao Yingjie threw out his Lava Flask that Yu Wenzhou and Ye Xiu, who had long since realized Wang Jiexi's intentions, realized this at the same time.
This Micrograss captain had truly spared no effort in trying to help Gao Yingjie win this match. He had finally done it, and his brilliant effort won the sincere applause of the two Gods.
"What a brilliant match!" Ye Xiu said loudly to Chen Guo beside him.
Chen Guo was also clapping, but she didn't understand why Ye Xiu would suddenly stand up so excitedly. At first, she had suspected that her appreciation level wasn't high enough, and that she hadn't seen enough brilliance. But after looking around, besides Ye Xiu, no one else in the audience had jumped up excitedly. Around them, there were already quite a few doubtful gazes. Those gazes were clearly looking at a noob.
"Brilliant, brilliant. It was very brilliant. Hurry up and sit down!" Chen Guo said as she tugged at Ye Xiu.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xiu stubbornly refused to sit down. Chen Guo tugged at him twice, but he didn't budge. Helpless, she could only lean to the side and copy Tang Rou's "I don't know him."
In the arena, Wang Jiexi and Gao Yingjie had already left the stage.
Gao Yingjie had returned to his timid self. He lowered his head and walked towards the center of the arena. The applause around him made him feel like he was in a dream. What had just happened? He couldn't believe it. It seemed like he had defeated the captain? And in front of so many people?
It was the captain who had asked him to sign up for the All-Star Challenge. Challenging the captain was also the captain's intention. Gao Yingjie also felt that he should give this challenge a try, so he obeyed his captain's arrangement to get a feel for the big picture in this kind of competition where victory or defeat wasn't important.
And then the captain asked him to be in the mood for the finals, to give it his all. Gao Yingjie did the same, but in the end, he was actually able to defeat the captain. This was something he had never expected.
This victory surprised Gao Yingjie. At the same time, he was a bit scared, but he was also a bit excited.
It wasn't until he reached the center of the stage and met with his captain, Wang Jiexi, that the fear in Gao Yingjie's heart once again took over. The unspoken rules of the Rookie Challenge, of course, he had heard of them from his seniors. But the captain had asked him to give it his all, so he didn't hesitate to give it his all. Because in his heart, he felt that even if he gave it his all, nothing would happen. He didn't have a one in a million chance of beating the captain.
But he had done it. Now that the captain was in front of him, he immediately remembered what his seniors had said. He immediately felt like he had let the captain down. In this kind of competition, he had actually defeated the captain. This, this, this …
Gao Yingjie buried his head deeper and deeper. He was the victor, but his heart was filled with guilt. He didn't dare face anyone.
Suddenly, his left wrist was grabbed. He hurriedly looked over and saw the captain's right hand. Then, his left hand was lifted high into the air, welcoming the applause coming from all directions in the stadium. And at this moment, the applause seemed to be even louder.
"You played very well." Wang Jiexi said.
Gao Yingjie was a bit surprised. Because he seemed to see a smile on the captain's face. It was very real.
"You have to shoulder the future of Micrograss, Yingjie!" Gao Yingjie heard the captain say this to him. In an instant, the surroundings seemed to become very quiet. He saw the captain let go of his hand and slowly walk off the stage alone. When he suddenly woke up, he was the only one left in the arena. His arms were raised high, receiving applause from all around …
"Is Wang Jiexi angry? It must be very embarrassing to be defeated by a kid in his own team, right? "Seeing Wang Jiexi leave Gao Yingjie alone, Chen Guo muttered. At this moment, Ye Xiu, who had already sat down, heard this and didn't comment. He just smiled. The fewer people who knew about Wang Jiexi's intentions, the better.
After the second round of the Rookie Challenge ended, Gao Yingjie walked off the stage not long after. However, the news of Micrograss's genius defeating captain Wang Jiexi had already been edited into headlines by many media outlets. In their opinion, there couldn't be any more shocking news than this in the Rookie Challenge. At this moment, the reporters were trying to find a way to get an interview opportunity.
However, the Rookie Challenge wouldn't stop because of such an unusual match. After Gao Yingjie left the stage, the host announced the next challenge for the newcomer.
Micrograss's member, Qiao Yifan.
The audience was in an uproar. They didn't know who this person was. Let alone them, even the pro players were whispering to each other to find out who this person was. "Who is this? Who is this?" Chen Guo couldn't help but wonder. Tang Rou silently glanced over at Ye Xiu. All she saw was a calm expression.
A youth had already stood up from Micrograss's seats. Under the indifferent gazes of his teammates, he walked onto the stage alone.
The whispers didn't stop, but the host continued to methodically announce the matchups for this match.
"The player Qiao Yifan wishes to challenge is Team Void's captain, Li Xuan, who controls the number one Phantom Demon, Sobbing Ghost!"
This time, the observers and pro players weren't too surprised. The opponents of the Rookie Challenge were usually the team's ace characters. However, Qiao Yifan's own team, Micrograss, was in an uproar.
