Round of 16, second match.
When Lu Li saw that Ruling Sword's opponent this time was Lan Yu, he couldn't help but smirk. His smile wasn't very obvious, but Genhao San still saw it.
"What's with that expression?" Genhao San was shocked.
Of the 15 teams in the top 16, there were two that he didn't want to face the most. One was Drizzle Court and the other was Lan Yu. Even if he faced The Capital of Glory, it wouldn't matter. If he wanted to win the championship, he would definitely have to face this team.
The other team members also came over, but they all looked confused.
"Hey, Boss, you're not going to ask us to go easy on him, are you?" Fei Houzi had a constipated expression on his face.
"Sigh, beauty is misleading," Sakura Memories said as she scratched the wall. "How can you be in a relationship with a different gender? You deserve to be burned to death, you deserve to be burned to death …"
Moonlight also came over and put his hand on Lu Li's shoulder. He let out a long sigh and said, "Brother, to be honest, women are very troublesome things. You'd better … sigh, forget it. You won't understand until you experience it."
"Right, right, guys are better …" Sakura Memories thought that she had met someone who understood her and came over …
Moonlight was stunned and ran away.
"Alright, stop messing around. We'll give it our all in this match," Lu Li said as he clapped his hands and set the tone for the upcoming match.
"Give it our all?" Everyone was stunned. Could it be that something had happened between the two of them? Had their relationship broken down? Had someone become angry and decided to regain his face in the match?
"Yes, beat them up. It's best if you beat them until they're bald," Lu Li didn't bother to explain anything and directly announced that he was going to the reserve seats to prepare for the match.
On the other hand, Lan Yu didn't have the joy of meeting an ally.
To be honest, Ruling Sword didn't need to go all out in the top 16. This was especially so since Lu Li's strength had suddenly skyrocketed. As long as they didn't give up, there were very few people who could beat Lu Li and Moonlight in the arena.
If they had the intention to take care of their allies, they could have given up on the arena matches, or even the team matches. It wouldn't have affected their advancement at all.
As long as it didn't affect their advancement, there was no point in chasing after the rankings.
In this kind of situation, the stronger team had the obligation to give way to the weaker team. Otherwise, everyone wouldn't be so cautious about forming an alliance.
If he could get 10 points from Ruling Sword, Lan Yu's chances of advancing to the quarter-finals would increase by at least 20%!
Unfortunately, Lan Yu had made his own choice.
The original old members, Chanelle and Flying Fish Hater, transferred to Misty Drizzle Tower. The seven new members formed Lan Yu's new team. Because they had proven themselves with their results and entered the top 16, they naturally did not want to be integrated by Drizzle Court. Therefore, they collectively accepted the support of Water Fairy's father and became an independent club.
The Dimensional Residence also made the same choice. Long-Cherished Wish and Flowing Cloud both had a certain degree of autonomy, and they also chose to do so.
When Drizzle Court funded them, it was through the Shen Group's bank account. The Shen Group was also the one who acted, so it was very easy for the Shen Group to take over these four clubs.
Out of the arrangements that Water Fairy had made in the past few years, only Drizzle Court, Peerless City, Hidden Heavens and Misty Drizzle Tower were left. Looking at the numbers, they had lost four out of eight. They had lost half of their power. This was why Water Fairy was so angry yesterday that she said that her father was obstructing the integration of the gaming industry.
In fact, people in the industry could see that they were still far from half of the power. Peerless City alone was more valuable than the four clubs that had been separated.
Peerless City's performance was indeed surprising. In fact, their strength was the most likely to surpass Drizzle Court's independence. However, in this turmoil, the higher-ups had almost unanimously agreed that they would not accept outsiders telling them what to do. They would do anything to attach themselves to Drizzle Court.
Although the Shen Group could still use the fact that the Shen Group was the investor, it was still a conflict between father and daughter, so they didn't dare to go too far. As such, they reached the final agreement.
The moment Lu Li saw his opponents, he almost laughed out loud.
He wasn't just saying that he wanted to crush these guys.
Of course, he wasn't that disgusted with these players from Lan Yu. Everyone had their own choices, and on the road to glory, all of their efforts were worthy of respect.
It was better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix!
In fact, what would happen if Drizzle Court and Peerless City met in the finals was a hot topic of discussion. It was a pity that such a scene had never happened.
In the reserve area, the new captain of Lan Yu, Enthrall, raised his head and stared at the entrance. When he saw Lu Li walk in with his team members, he felt even more suffocated.
"Captain," Sindera, who was a Mage, was slightly more mature. He gently pushed Enthrall's arm, "Calm down and greet them. We don't have to be afraid of them. Even if we lose, we can't lose in spirit."
Who would have thought that as soon as they drew a line with Water Fairy, they would immediately run into a powerful ally of Drizzle Court?
They couldn't help but think of the phrase "karma".
As for not being afraid of Ruling Sword, how could that be possible? Any team that faced Ruling Sword would feel a great deal of pressure, let alone a second-rate team with an all-new lineup.
"Hello Lu Li," Enthrall greeted as he walked over and extended his hand to Lu Li.
"Hello everyone, it's about time. I'll see you on the field," Lu Li said. He didn't bother with pleasantries and shook hands with the other team members before going back to arrange the lineup.
The two commentators outside were quite embarrassed.
In addition to introducing the situation of the two teams, there really wasn't much else to say. They were both teams that had been in the limelight for a long time, so there wasn't much else to say. Then, they looked at the top topics on the tournament message board.
One of the top topics was obviously "Refuse to play dirty and refuse to throw the match"!
Most people knew what the relationship between Lan Yu and Drizzle Court was, and they also knew that Ruling Sword and Drizzle Court were allies. If Ruling Sword had enough points to protect themselves, then they would definitely throw the match to increase the chips for Lan Yu.
If they threw the match, could it still be called a competition? Everyone paid money to come here, not to watch a show.
What else could the commentator say? He could only say, "We believe that today's competitors will uphold the competitive spirit of many years and do their best to defend their honor."
Defend your sister!
It wasn't like this hadn't happened in the previous two matches. The Capital of Glory had thrown the match to Stellar Union, and Xiao Mo and Blood Dagger hadn't even played from the beginning to the end. This made all the fans very sad.
It wasn't like the two of them were going to get a room, so how could they both be absent?
However, when Ruling Sword's players appeared, the angry audience was dumbfounded. Why was it Lu Li? Why was Lu Li here?
Throwing the match wasn't something that could be done casually. If they lost the match, they would lose the face of the club and the players.
Generally speaking, it was The Capital of Glory who threw the match to Stellar Union. Their players couldn't play due to other reasons, so their lineup was much worse than usual. Even if they lost, it wouldn't be shameful.
