"You don't panic, you're not discouraged, you're ruthless and you're calm. You're a real man," Water Fairy's uncle, the eldest of the Fan family, praised.
The person sitting next to him was obviously over 60 years old, but he still nodded politely.
"Yes, yes, you're right. You have the bigger fist, so you're in the right."
"After this battle, Ruling Sword will be in the top four. They're only one step away from the championship. Their biggest opponent, The Capital of Glory, isn't very strong," Water Fairy's uncle said. He was a professor in the gaming industry, so he knew more than the people sitting here.
"What if this ruling goes against our Cher's Drizzle Court?" The person who spoke seemed to be the fourth brother, and his face was full of worry.
"Even so, we can't give in. We have to do what we have to do. A man has to do what he wants," the eldest of the Fan family said.
Lu Li didn't know that they were discussing here, but he had already taken down Magic Cry while they were talking. He was at a disadvantage with only half of his HP and few skills.
He was wearing the Black Dragon Cloak, which gave him 20% Magic Resistance.
After the individual rounds, Ruling Sword was leading by one point.
Then, it was the team competition. Ruling Sword couldn't go easy on them again, lest they fail miserably. It would be too embarrassing if they lost, not to mention the fact that Water Fairy's grandfather's family and friends were watching.
After the match, Ruling Sword won again with a 5: 2 score.
The last match was 5: 1, and this one was 5: 2. The total score was 10: 3.
The total score for each match was five points. The individual rounds were three points and the group rounds were two points. Even if Azure Guard took the full points in the third match and beat Ruling Sword with a 5: 0 score, it wouldn't change their fate in the top eight.
Ruling Sword successfully advanced.
Of course, this didn't mean that they wouldn't play the third match.
The third match was usually a friendly match. The venue was at Ruling Sword's headquarters, but it wasn't completely open to the public. The players that participated were usually second-rate players or newcomers from the winning club.
Ruling Sword sent out Fei Houzi, Kitty Likes Meat, Sikong Che, Princely Beauty and Nuo Yu.
They couldn't win against Ruling Sword's main force, so it was no surprise that they were fighting against this ragtag team.
Azure Guard beat them 5: 2 and gained back some face. What they were most afraid of was that their main force couldn't beat them and then lost to a random team. That would be embarrassing.
After entering the semifinals, there was a long period of idleness, waiting for the other clubs to finish their matches.
During this period of time, Lu Li and the others were exploring Archerons. Anyway, they were repeatedly wiped out and running corpses, all the way until the quarterfinals in Drizzle Court.
They were unlucky to be up against The Capital of Glory.
The remaining teams were also out. Peerless City was up against Seventh Heaven, followed by Blood Red War Flag and Wings of Dawn.
Lu Li couldn't do anything about his wife wanting to fight in the Capital of Glory. He could only support them spiritually and hope that they could return in triumph.
Lu Li still had to watch the match, and he was sitting in the commentator's seat.
He was more at ease partnered with Dark Wind. He could choose not to speak and only need to nod.
"Who do you think is going to win?" Dark Wind asked.
"Brother Feng, that's a very bad question," Lu Li replied.
"But the audience really wants to hear it, right?" Dark Wind was very good at stirring up the emotions of the audience. Countless people in the audience and watching the live broadcast cheered loudly.
"Of course my wife's club is going to win. There's no need to ask," Lu Li said matter-of-factly.
"Why?"
"Because she's my wife."
"Because she's afraid of going home and kneeling on a washboard," Dark Wind teased.
"Actually, the current lineup of players in Drizzle Court is quite strong. Let's take a look at their lineup first …" Lu Li quickly changed the subject. Otherwise, there would be no end to it.
Could Drizzle Court beat The Capital of Glory? Of course, they couldn't.
Especially in an away game, almost everyone in the audience was The Capital of Glory's fans. The people from Drizzle Court were still on the plane a few hours ago.
However, Water Fairy and the others didn't force a victory.
They only needed to get the most basic two points.
In other words, they had to kill two players from The Capital of Glory in the arena.
The first player to go up from Drizzle Court was Water Fairy, and the Capital of Glory was Blood Dagger. It was a classic Thief civil war.
"Lu Li, you've probably fought against both of them before. Ahem, I think you've fought against Water Fairy more often. We're only asking about in-game battles. No matter how you've fought against each other in real life, what kind of Thief do you think they are?" This guy was usually very serious, but he would occasionally drive a car or something.
Lu Li pretended not to understand and replied seriously, "Blood Dagger's style is treacherous and ever-changing, while Water Fairy is a fierce and sudden player."
"Facing these two players of the same profession, who do you think will be more difficult to defeat?" Dark Wind asked.
"If it's a fair fight, I think it will be more difficult to defeat Blood Dagger," Lu Li said.
"If your words cause you to go home and get beaten up, this competition will not be responsible." Dark Wind laughed. "Please watch their match."
Water Fairy was at a disadvantage in the beginning, but it wasn't a big problem. Her equipment was better, and after fighting back, she immediately equalized the situation in terms of HP. After all, she was holding a Level 70 Legendary weapon in her hand.
"Blood Dagger is playing more cautiously, but the advantage is obvious. However, his condition isn't that good, right?" Dark Wind confirmed with Lu Li.
"Yes." Lu Li nodded. "He wasn't able to seize the opportunity to expand his advantage, so his reaction speed is slightly slower."
"Sigh, Xiao Mo, what a pity." Dark Wind sighed.
Only a small portion of the audience could understand what the two were saying. What he meant was that Xiao Mo's retirement announcement was a huge blow to Blood Dagger, causing him to perform poorly in the match.
At this point, there wasn't much that could be said.
It wasn't like he could say, "Look, Blood Dagger made another mistake because of Xiao Mo."
No matter how small a mistake was, it was still a mistake, especially when there was more than one mistake. Water Fairy suddenly appeared behind Blood Dagger and used Cut Throat, which dealt 100% critical damage, to bring Blood Dagger's HP down to critical. Then, she followed up with a skill to finish him off.
The stadium was very quiet, and the atmosphere was very heavy.
Blood Dagger and Water Fairy were experts of the same level, but because of their battle records, as well as the fact that female Thieves were known to be weaker, most people thought that Blood Dagger could completely defeat Water Fairy.
Who would have thought that he would lose in the first round of the group arena, and lose so miserably?
The Capital of Glory's second player was Xiao Mo.
