Lu Li was the one who drew the lots for the finals. This time, the league was quite grand.
In the past, the major clubs would send someone over to draw lots. If it was the home team, it would be the away team. In fact, no one really cared. After all, every club had a home team and a away team. It was just that the order was different.
This time, they even arranged for the media to watch. As the symbol of Ruling Sword, Lu Li naturally had to stand on the stage with Xiao Mo.
Three days later, the Capital of Glory would play against Ruling Sword on their home field!
For the first time, they didn't draw the home team. Lu Li was somewhat disappointed. If it was the home team, his mentality would be much better. If they could gain an advantage in the first game, then the pressure in the second game would be less.
Of course, when asked by the media, Lu Li didn't seem worried at all. He calmly expressed that Ruling Sword wasn't afraid of such a challenge, and that they were fully prepared for the upcoming battle. He shook hands with Sorrowless in front of the spotlight. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They were both incredibly calm.
After returning, he continued to train with Water Fairy.
Water Fairy was responsible for pulling the monsters and a few Mages were responsible for dealing area of effect damage. Lu Li sat next to them and looked at the information on Poisons.
This kind of life was a short period of peace before the big battle, even though Lu Li knew that it wouldn't last long. In fact, apart from gaining some EXP, there weren't any other additional benefits.
In Dawn, as long as there wasn't a difference of three levels, the difference wouldn't be noticeable. If you didn't participate in battles, you wouldn't be able to increase your skill proficiency. Skill Points were never enough. Moreover, practice makes perfect. Skills were honed through battles.
This time, he didn't bring Lu Xin to the Capital.
The Capital had been smoggy for two or three hundred years. Now, not only had it not improved, but it had actually gotten worse.
Before Lu Li left, Square Root Three had warned him not to leave the hotel if he didn't have something important to do. After communicating with the people from Glory Capital, they booked high-end hotels that were equipped with air purification systems. As long as he didn't go out, he would be fine. Furthermore, there were so many people in the imperial capital, and no one had been poisoned by the smog.
However, he would never bring Lu Xin along.
She had a weak physique and had grown up in Jiangnan. How could Lu Li bear to let her suffer the poison of the smog in the capital?
The Capital of Glory sent White Westhill to pick them up. Xiao Mo didn't come personally. The explanation he gave to Lu Li was that Xiao Mo hadn't been feeling well recently. Lu Li wasn't angry. It was normal to be in poor health. Many competitors lacked exercise, so it would be strange if they were in good health. As for the advertisements of the gaming pods, those who believed them were already lying in their coffins.
The media interviews were obviously more enthusiastic than before.
The first few questions were normal, but they became more and more unbearable.
"Xiao Mo didn't show up today. Does Lu Li feel slighted?"
"No!"
"This time, we were able to compete with The Capital of Glory for the championship. How do you feel now, Lu Li?"
"I'm very excited and grateful. In fact, a reporter asked this question a few days ago. I already gave an answer that matched my inner thoughts. This reporter friend can look for the relevant records."
"This time, against The Capital of Glory, who have the support of tens of millions of fans, how confident are you, Lu Li?"
"In terms of the number of fans, we admit defeat …"
"In other words, Lu Li, you're only convinced by the number of fans The Capital of Glory has. In terms of strength, Ruling Sword can crush The Capital of Glory, right?"
"That's what you said. I didn't say anything."
"As a club that has participated in the league in its first year and achieved good results, what do you think contributed to your success? Is there any element of luck involved?"
"There is no luck in success."
"If Ruling Sword wins the championship, they will become the sixth club in the history of the league to achieve this. When that time comes, Ruling Sword's market value will reach new heights. Do you have any plans to go public?"
"Not at the moment, and we probably won't consider going public in the future."
The main thing was that Lu Li stood up to answer these questions. Some were sharp, some were gentle. Lu Li's style was to say whatever he wanted to say. Even if his words weren't pleasant to hear, no one would be able to point out any obvious mistakes. This was probably a matter of propriety.
Although they didn't get the explosive comments that they expected, Lu Li's attitude of answering each and every question was quite pleasing to the reporters.
After Lu Li finished answering the questions, it was time for free questions.
This time, the questions were more scattered. Several of the team members were asked a lot of questions. Sanyue Yu had the most questions, but her answers were relatively simple. Most of the questions were answered with yes or no answers.
When she was asked what her future boyfriend was like, she answered very seriously that she hadn't thought about it.
The other professional players were also more cautious. They said what they could, and if they couldn't, they just said what they had learned in advance. As long as they didn't make any mistakes, it wouldn't affect them too much. After all, they were all newcomers, and the professional circle was very tolerant of newcomers.
"I want to challenge Xiao Mo!"
Fei Houzi was the type of person who couldn't control his mouth. After being provoked by the reporters, he actually said that he wanted to challenge Xiao Mo in the arena. This caused the first sensation in the press conference today.
Seeing that the reporters were about to pounce on him, Lu Li had a headache and pressed his temples.
After returning to the hotel, they began to rest. The match was in the afternoon, so there was no time to go out and play. The smog outside was quite heavy, so no one wanted to go out and play. It was said that if something happened in Imperial Capital, the best thing to do wasn't to call the police, because the police wouldn't be able to find you. Also, don't leave the car, because if you turned around, you wouldn't be able to find it …
The venue for the afternoon match was the Worker's Stadium.
This stadium, which had a history of nearly three hundred years, had undergone several renovations and expansions. Currently, it could accommodate about fifty thousand people. The tickets were sold out in just a few seconds after they were opened yesterday.
Both teams entered the stadium to prepare, and everything progressed smoothly to the arena stage.
Fei Houzi wasn't in high spirits. At this time, he realized how impulsive he was to challenge Xiao Mo in the arena. If it was really a challenge, naturally, it had to be a fair match. If Xiao Mo accepted, he would have to be the starter in the arena, and Fei Houzi would also have to be the starter.
However, according to the previous plan, Moonlight should be the starter.
"Let Monkey go first. Since he said it, no matter what the result is, it will be the most important challenge of his career," Moonlight said.
Lu Li was silent.
He was actually thinking about this. If Fei Houzi went up, he would definitely lose, but he didn't know to what extent.
