"Excellent Era is so shameless!!!"
When Chen Guo heard what Ye Xiu said, she tore up the newspaper on the spot.
"How do we deal with them?" Chen Guo asked Ye Xiu angrily.
"Defeat them," Ye Xiu said.
"Uh … besides that?" Chen Guo asked.
"That's not enough?" Ye Xiu looked surprised.
"That's a must, okay! But now, how are we going to fight back? "Chen Guo asked.
"There's no need for that, right?" Ye Xiu looked like he was afraid of trouble.
"Can't you have some backbone? If you keep being the scapegoat, you're going to shit yourself!" Chen Guo shouted.
"Too vulgar!" Wei Chen laughed as he looked down on her.
"You're still laughing!" Chen Guo glared at him. She wasn't in the mood to joke around. She was really angry.
Wei Chen quickly stopped smiling and analyzed seriously, "On this issue, it's not easy to fight back. We can't just tell them the truth, right? Excellent Era saw through this. "
"I'm so angry." Chen Guo looked around as if she was looking for something to throw. But the things in the hotel had to be compensated for if they were broken. Chen Guo looked around but couldn't find anything suitable. In the end, Ye Xiu stuffed a pillow into her hands. Chen Guo took it but didn't throw it. She just stared blankly at the pillow.
"Don't be angry. The competition is starting tomorrow. Let them deal with these things. Let's not be distracted." Ye Xiu comforted her for the first time.
"We must break Excellent Era!" Chen Guo said.
"Definitely, definitely." Ye Xiu agreed.
Chen Guo left. After listening to Ye Xiu's analysis, she knew what kind of storm Excellent Era's actions would cause. Chen Guo also didn't want to see it, but she couldn't help but want to care about it. In the end, when he went online to take a look, he hated himself for not being able to control himself.
Previously, when Excellent Era revealed that Happy was organized by Ye Qiu, the fans of Excellent Era were so agitated that they even went to Happy Internet Cafe to protest. In the end, Esports Home's report slapped the faces of Excellent Era and Excellent Era's fans until they were swollen. This time, Excellent Era finally found an opportunity to settle old and new grudges. This time, they finally came up with a reasonable explanation: Look, we didn't make a mistake. This guy just changed his name and got away with it.
As a result, it seemed like using the name Ye Xiu was to avoid this situation. This time, the reaction of the Excellent Era fans was even more intense than before. There were even a lot of fans who expressed that their hearts were completely broken, and from then on, they became anti-fans. Chen Guo was depressed! She clearly organized the situation she knew and posted a post on the forums, hoping that the fans would think objectively and rationally.
The response to the post was quite enthusiastic, and there were countless replies. In the end, when Chen Guo opened it, she was so angry that she almost cried. There were people who were willing to believe what she said, but most of the players were mocking and ridiculing her. Chen Guo felt that she wrote reasonably, but this group of people took her words out of context and confused her. Chen Guo defended herself, but after several pages of arguments, Chen Guo got a nickname: Autumn Dog.
Chen Guo didn't know if there were people from Excellent Era among them who deliberately misled her after seeing the truth. She didn't want to give up just like that, so she continued to argue. Thus, after dozens of pages, Chen Guo finally leveled up and was no longer "Autumn Dog." Someone gave her a new nickname: Advanced Anti-Fan.
Chen Guo finally gave up …
April 23rd, Tuesday. The offline tournament officially started on this day.
There wasn't any opening ceremony, but the Alliance Chairman Feng Xianjun personally came to announce the start of the tournament.
There were four groups with five teams in each group. There would always be one team that didn't qualify. The teams that didn't qualify were not required to be present, but other than the professional teams, most of the other player teams didn't have experience in this kind of tournament, so even if they didn't qualify, they were still willing to come and experience the atmosphere.
Happy got a bye in the first round, but a group of people still came. The biggest difference between a live match and a normal one was naturally the spectators. Under the gaze of so many people, it would be unnatural for many people to do anything. And this was something that the new players had to learn to adapt to.
Happy, like Ye Xiu and the others, naturally didn't have this problem. As for the new players, Ye Xiu felt that Tang Rou and Baozi wouldn't have a big problem, so the ones who needed to learn to adapt were the others.
But even though they were participating in the tournament, since they didn't qualify, they couldn't run around the arena to watch. Happy and the others could only sit in the designated seats and enjoy the competition like spectators.
There weren't many people in the audience, but because there was a team like Excellent Era participating, compared to previous years, this was already a good attendance. The Alliance had actually considered whether or not they should make an exception and arrange this Challenger League in City H for the sake of the box office. It would have a very good effect. But after thinking about it, wouldn't this be giving Excellent Era the home ground? It would be too biased, so they had no choice but to give up.
But for a powerhouse like Excellent Era, they had fans all over the country, not to mention the fanatical fans who would follow the team everywhere to watch the competition and participate in the activities. At this moment, in the audience, there were many banners and slogans supporting Excellent Era. The other teams could only be envious. They weren't on the same level, so they didn't need to dream about this kind of treatment.
The eight matches started at the same time, but they didn't end at the same time. Excellent Era, who had the strongest team, ended the fastest. It could be said that they swept through the competition like rotten wood. In the other seven matches, the slower teams were still fighting in the individual competition, while Excellent Era had already won 10 to 0. The difference in strength was quite large. When Excellent Era's pro players left the stage, they didn't seem very proud. And the teams they defeated didn't seem very dejected either. It was as if this was how it should be.
"Useless!!" Chen Guo would definitely look down on this kind of attitude.
Happy and the others obviously cared about the two matches in their group the most: Team Trader versus Team Ten Steps One Kill and Team Mysterious Fantasy versus Team Cloud Xuan Pavilion.
A team that could reach this stage in the offline tournament was quite good. There were still some good matches to watch. Every year, pro teams would take notice of players who could reach this stage and sign them as pro players. The most famous players who used this as a springboard to enter the pro scene were Team Void's Li Xuan and Team Wind Howl's Fang Rui. These two had been discovered in the Challenger League, and now that they were All-Stars, they were often used as gimmicks to promote the Challenger League.
Ye Xiu also had this thought, so he paid attention to every match. Compared to winning or losing, he cared more about each player's performance. But up until now, there hadn't been a match that made his eyes light up. Ye Xiu didn't dare hope for a particularly outstanding player. Who knew how many scouts from various teams were sitting in the audience!
After about an hour, the eight matches of the first day were finally finished. After the matches in Group B, Team Mysterious Fantasy had 9 points and were in first place. Team Trader was second with 8 points. Team Ten Steps One Kill was third with 2 points. Team Cloud Xuan Pavilion was fourth with 1 point. Ye Xiu had a better idea of the strength of these four teams after watching the matches. As a pro team, Team Mysterious Fantasy's strength was clearly higher. However, there was a limit to how strong they were. They weren't able to cleanly take all 10 points like Excellent Era. Instead, they lost 1 point in the individual competition.
The second round of the competition would take place on Friday night. In this round, Team Mysterious Fantasy would have a bye. Team Happy would face Team Ten Steps One Kill and Team Cloud Xuan Pavilion would face Team Trader.
The next few days of waiting for the competition weren't peaceful at all. Esports Home's report on Ye Qiu and Ye Xiu created a huge wave. This wave wasn't because of Ye Xiu's identity. No one doubted it. What most people cared about was that Ye Qiu, a God from Excellent Era, had actually played against Excellent Era in the Challenger League. The fans couldn't understand, while the others watched enthusiastically. For a moment, it was very lively. On Happy's side, many media outlets from all over the country wanted to interview them. They wanted them to respond to this question. Most of the interview requests were rejected until Friday's Esports Home. On the same page as the previous issue, everyone saw an interview with Happy and Ye Xiu.
An interview with Ye Xiu, aka Ye Qiu, was extremely rare. However, at this time, not many people cared about it.
And in this interview, everyone saw Ye Xiu's response to everyone's hot questions.
"I formed a team to participate in the Challenger League. Excellent Era also participated in the Challenger League after being relegated, so we met. That's all."
"So you're saying that you've been preparing to form a team since long before Excellent Era was relegated?" the reporter asked.
"That's right. After leaving Excellent Era, I started practicing my character in the newly opened tenth server. During this process, I got to know some friends, so we decided to form a team to play together."
"It sounds like you guys didn't have any ambitions at the start?" the reporter asked.
"That's right. At the start, we were just playing together. If we had any ambitions at that time, why would I retire?"
"Then what caused you to make such a big decision later on? From what I know, your team was actually formed in an Internet cafe opposite Excellent Era. At that time, you even had a huge conflict with Excellent Era's fans, "the reporter asked.
"That's because I realized that the people who formed the team with me all had a lot of potential. They had the ability and deserved to stand on a better stage, so we decided to give it our all in the Challenger League."
"Then why are you specifically targeting Excellent Era? Some people think that this is a publicity stunt, "the reporter asked.
"Of course we have to target Excellent Era. Because Excellent Era is without a doubt the most competitive opponent in the Challenger League. Targeting Excellent Era is a sign of our ambition."
"But you were the representative of Team Excellent Era in the past. Now you're fighting with Team Excellent Era for the only spot in the Challenger League. How do you feel about this?" the reporter asked.
"I'll do my best to defeat them. This is a sign of respect for Glory. "
"Have you ever thought about how many people will feel about this?" the reporter asked.
"This isn't my decision. It's the decision of all competitive sports. There will only ever be one champion."
"Then what about the champion of this Challenger League?" the reporter asked.
"If I say Happy now, wouldn't it be disrespectful to my opponents? Let's just wait and see … "
Isn't that the same as saying that …? This was what the interviewer, Chang Xian, thought to himself.
