Chapter 96: Confirmation of the Promotion List
After the end of Group B's matches, Group A and Group S also finished their final matches over the weekend.
Ye Shaoyang returned to Tianheng with his teammates. Everyone watched the matches in the conference room for two days until the weekend at 10 pm. The league finally released the points and individual rankings for the first stage of the regular season.
Group S's first place was Northern Shepherd. Zhao Xinping, Zhao Xinan, and the new mid laner, Xiao En, worked well together. Northern Shepherd had no weaknesses in the top, middle, or bottom lane, so they were exceptionally strong this season.
Group S's second to fourth place did not have much of a difference in points. They were Jing Zhe, Ice Soul, and Huo Wen.
Jing Zhe's double carry system was still difficult to crack. Fang Zhengqing and Xie Yuan's tacit understanding had been established since the youth training camp. They had been partners for five seasons, and their brainwaves were synchronized, unlike Chi Shuo's.
Ice Soul was still strong, and they relied solely on their team to stabilize their position in Group S. Huo Wen, on the other hand, was obviously strong as a mid laner. He had no weaknesses in jungler, archer, top laner, or support, so his lineup was more comprehensive.
Group S's first to fourth place would remain in Group S for the second stage, while the fifth and sixth place would be eliminated to Group A.
The eliminated teams were Yueying and Luo Shen Temple.
Yueying had Xu Zhuo, a strong top laner, and Xie Weiyu, who had just transferred over. Coach Lin was not surprised that their team was eliminated. He analyzed, "Maybe it's because of the change in members, and the team hasn't fully adapted. Xu Zhuo's top laner and Xie Weiyu's bottom laner can't work well together? "
The top and bottom laners were too far apart, so they couldn't provide support immediately.
Chi Shuo said calmly, "Group A's Yaoguang has advanced. There will definitely be people cursing Xie Weiyu."
Yaoguang's advancement was within expectations.
Yaoguang was also a strong team that had taken second place in Group S8 and fourth place in Group S9. They only had a change in archer, and the new archer was quite good.
Although Yaoguang's boss had created gods in the entertainment industry, the players in the eSports industry were speechless. But it had to be said that the new god they were supporting had some skills.
On the individual MVP rankings, Ye Shaoyang was ranked first with 9 MVPs; Yao Guang's Feather was ranked second with 8 MVPs. Furthermore, Yao Guang was in Group A, so theoretically speaking, the MVP of Group A would be even harder to obtain.
Yao Guang won 5 consecutive victories in Group A and entered Group S as the first in Group A. Yaoguang's team's Xie Weiyu,'s Yu, and Liu's Yu's Four.
As expected, Yaoguang hired a water army to add fuel to the fire. More than half of Xie Weiyu's fans left to support the handsome newcomer, leaving only his die-hard fans.
Ye Shaoyang felt sorry for this player. He looked at Chi Shuo and said, "Xie Weiyu must be under a lot of pressure, right? Yueying's Team was relegated after the transfer. Also, Yueying's Team will be relegated to Group A. We'll have to face your old friend in advance.
Chi Shuo said, "Old Xu should have expected this result. He even messaged me two days ago that we don't have to wait for Group S. We can play in Group A. The second stage of the group competition won't be easy. "
In the first stage of the regular season, the top two teams in the group would advance directly, while the bottom two would be relegated. There were no choke matches.
In the second stage, there would be a 'choke match'. It was a match between the relegated teams and the promoted teams to compete for a spot in Group S. It was to ensure that only the top teams entered Group S.
Yueying and Luo Divine Temple, who had been relegated from Group S, were the top eight players from last season. Their strength was about the same as Tianheng from last season. After Yueying joined Xie Weiyu, they had yet to show their true strength.
Tian Huan was going to play against them in Group A. It seemed like he had to make some preparations.
"The match schedule isn't out yet. Let's rest for two days."
Coach Lin paused and looked back at everyone. "Group A definitely can't rely on the mid laner to lead the tempo like Group B. We need to come up with a stronger lineup. Shaoyang and Chi Shuo should go to the International Server's duo matches to get a feel for it. I'm worried that the coaches in Group A, especially the strong teams like Luo Divine Temple and Yueying, are already studying Tianheng ahead of time. "
Lin Feng's worries were not without reason. Just like how Tianheng had been watching Group S 'matches, the coaches in Group S were all shrewd. They were definitely watching Tianheng, who had undergone a major overhaul this season.
After all, they were old rivals, so no one dared to underestimate each other.
On March 18th, the group announcement for the second round of the regular season was posted on the league's official Weibo.
Group S consisted of: Northern Shepherd, Jing Zhe, Ice Soul, Huowen, Yaoguang, and Wolf Clan.
Group A consisted of: Luo Divine Temple, Yueying, Blood Eagle, Ji Xuan, Tianheng, CYC.
Group B was filled with weak teams. If they did not advance, they would be eliminated in the third stage.
Among them, Group A had the greatest change. Two teams had fallen from Group S, while two had been promoted from Group B. There were only two teams with old members. The coaches of these two teams were so worried that they could not sleep.
A BOSS had climbed up from Group B, while two BOSSES had fallen from Group S!
The following matches were going to be difficult!

The next day at noon, the team members who had slept in went to the cafeteria for lunch. They saw Team Leader Tang Can rushing over to inform them, "Everyone, pack up after lunch and head to the recording studio."
Everyone looked at her in confusion.
Tang Can smiled and said, "Have you forgotten about the Silver Dragon Cup? Previously, our Tianheng won the Silver Dragon Cup, and the reward included the Silver Dragon Group's annual endorsement. The club has already negotiated the endorsement price. With the rest of the week, everyone has time. Take some time to film the advertisement. "
Team 2's Yan Bin could not help but ask, "Do we have to go as well?"
Tang Can said, "Of course. The Silver Dragon Cup was won by you. The endorsement is given to the entire Tianheng club. Everyone can film a short advertisement. "
The youths of Team 2 were extremely excited.
Cheng Xing also had a look of anticipation. However, Ye Shaoyang had a calm expression. He did not look too willing to go.
The products endorsed by e-sports players were limited. They could not let e-sports players advertise lipsticks and skincare products, right? Most of them were electronic products, snacks, and drinks.
The Silver Dragon Group was a famous technology company in China. They had self-developed mobile phones, computers, and all kinds of supporting smart speakers, keyboards, mice, headphones, and other peripherals.
They invested in the Silver Dragon Cup and collaborated with the champion team every year. They had a good reputation in the industry.
Chi Shuo saw Ye Shaoyang's lack of interest and could not help but ask in a low voice, "You don't want to go?"
Ye Shaoyang smiled helplessly. "I'm not that interested in the advertisement, but I'll try my best to cooperate."
Ye Shaoyang had also filmed advertisements in his previous life. To be honest, he would rather play ranked games for a day than stay in the studio for a day. After all, he was not a professional actor. He could smile at the camera for a few photos, but he had to read lines for a moving advertisement … Just thinking about it made him feel awkward.
But they had no choice. The club had accepted the endorsement, so they could only bite the bullet and do it.
***
After lunch, the Tianheng group took a car to the designated studio.
The young lady from the Silver Dragon Group who was in charge of contacting the Tianheng project was very enthusiastic. She first asked everyone to prepare in the lounge. Then, she sat down and handed out the script to everyone. "You can take a look at the script first and get a general idea of the process! You'll be shooting in groups later. Find out who your partner is. "
Chi Shuo opened the script and looked.
The two names "Shuoyue" and "Lieyang" were written on the script.
His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately read on seriously.
Chi Shuo and Ye Shaoyang were endorsing two types of products. One was the new laptop computer that the Silver Dragon Group had developed this year. This series of computers was high-end and had high specs. It was equipped with an independent graphics card and the most advanced processor. It could smoothly run all kinds of large-scale 3D online games, including the current most popular MOBA game, "Divinity Wars."
The design of the computers was also beautiful. There were black gold, silver, red, blue, and many other colors to choose from.
Of course, the price was also relatively high.
When Ye Shaoyang saw the promotional image, his interest was piqued. "This computer looks pretty good. The specs should be top-notch, right? I want to buy one too. Is there an internal discount? "
The young lady next to him kindly said, "No need to buy it! Our company will give each of the 10 contestants in Tianheng a top-notch gaming laptop! "
Cheers immediately rang out in the lounge.
Qin Yizhu shouted, "Silver Dragon Group is so generous!"
Qujiang raised his hand and asked, "Can I choose the color? Can I choose red? "
Everyone: "…"
Qujiang, who was cold on the outside, actually liked red?
Cheng Xing raised his hand. "I want red too. It looks cool!"
Chi Shuo asked Ye Shaoyang in a low voice, "What color do you like?"
Ye Shaoyang said, "I like the white one."
Chi Shuo agreed. "Mm, white is quite simple and pretty. I'll choose black."
The young lady said, "Other than the computers, our company will also give everyone a set of peripherals, including mechanical keyboards, mice, and noise-canceling headphones! It will have Tianheng's logo and each contestant's game ID written on it! You can choose the color and mechanical axis. Everyone can tell Sister Tang Can when the time comes, and she'll do the calculations. "
Tang Can said, "Silver Dragon Group has given Tianheng a year's worth of sponsorship funds, so everyone's peripherals will have to be replaced with new ones. After we do the calculations, we'll hand it over to them for production, and they'll be done very quickly. In the next competition, everyone can bring new keyboards and mice. "
On the custom-made keyboards, other than the Tianheng Squad's logo and the contestant's name, there would also be Silver Dragon Group's logo. They were sponsoring Tianheng, so they could also advertise their products.
If the Tianheng Squad became famous and popular, it would naturally increase the sales of their computers, headphones, keyboards, and other electronic products and peripherals. It was a win-win situation.
Ye Shaoyang followed everyone to take a look at the keyboards that the person in charge had brought over. They felt pretty good.
Ye Shaoyang said, "Then I'll take the white ones for my computer and keyboard."
Chi Shuo chose the black one for everyone.
Qujiang and Cheng Xing chose the colorful backlit keyboards. Of course, if there were too many lights during the competition, they could be turned off. Old Qin chose the blue one.
Everyone's keyboards were only a little different in color. The design, the patterns on the edges, and the logo were all the same. When the time came, the Tianheng team's logo and each contestant's game ID would be printed on the side.
Ye Shaoyang thought, If I can bring this exclusive set of keyboards and mice to the international competition …
Silver Dragon Group really had good foresight. They must have made a huge profit from their investment, right?
