“Dragon Tooth breaks the defense, Sun Xiang begins his counterattack!!”

“This is a non-attribute Xuan Wen (炫纹, aura) generated by the Dragon Tooth just now… Ah, what a pity, it was knocked away by Landscape Killer’s dual swords. But as long as the Xuan Wen explodes, the enhancement effect will be produced. Now One Autumn Leaf’s movement speed has been increased.”

“Sky Strike, Overlord Body Cleave, Thrust, Consecutive Thrusts…”

“Landscape Killer dodged them all, but I think he seems to be having a hard time dodging. What do you think, Instructor Li?” Pan Lin felt that Li Yibo hadn’t said a word for a long time, so he habitually brought the topic over.

“Um…” Li Yibo barely responded.

Pan Lin didn’t have time to notice that Li Yibo was acting a little strange. The match was extremely intense. Sun Xiang’s One Autumn Leaf used normal attacks to regain the short cooldowns of his smaller skills, launching attacks one after another. Although he didn’t hit Landscape Killer continuously, Landscape Killer was suppressed and had no chance to counterattack.

During this process, Landscape Killer was still hit by some of One Autumn Leaf’s minor skills, and while his health was being worn down, the five major Battle Mage Xuan Wen (炫纹, auras) produced by the smaller skills were also shot out and exploded one after another. All the enhancement effects were added to his body, fully demonstrating the Battle Mage’s characteristic of becoming stronger the more he fought.

“It seems that Sun Xiang and One Autumn Leaf are working together quite well?” Pan Lin said while commentating, and when he saw that the guest wasn’t speaking, he quickly guided the guest to speak.

“Um…” Li Yibo only responded with a single sound again.

“Worthy of being called a genius rookie, Instructor Li, do you think Sun Xiang’s skills have reached the level of a top-tier expert?” Pan Lin asked.

“This… it’s hard to say. Most of the top experts in the league have god-level accounts, but this is the first time Sun Xiang has controlled this kind of god-level character. We need to observe for a while before drawing a conclusion.” Li Yibo finally recovered. He was so distracted because Sun Xiang’s skills were far beyond his imagination. He suddenly realized that he seemed a bit out of touch. Nowadays, he only talks glibly on the show, discussing strategies on paper. How long has it been since he personally touched Glory? Has Glory developed to such an extent now?

Thinking back to his past commentary, there were often some things he didn't quite understand, but Li Yibo would skillfully gloss over them. But this time, the shock Sun Xiang brought him was too great, so great that he even forgot to pretend to understand.

The situation on the field showed a one-sided situation. The advantages of Yang Cong that Li Yibo analyzed at the beginning of the match couldn’t be seen at all. All that could be seen was Sun Xiang’s skill and One Autumn Leaf’s domineering aura.

The overwhelming offensive completely aroused the enthusiasm of the spectators in Happy Internet Cafe. Everyone shouted loudly, and even Chen Guo was a little excited.

“The Battle God is still here!!!” Someone suddenly shouted this slogan, and immediately received a positive response from the audience. Everyone shouted one after another in a rhythmic way, and even Chen Guo couldn’t help but clap her hands and shout a few times along with everyone.

The commentator’s voice in the broadcast was completely drowned out. But did everyone need commentary at this time? No! One Autumn Leaf’s domineering offensive could completely explain everything.

As Landscape Killer fell under One Autumn Leaf’s battle lance, the Evil Destroyer, the atmosphere in the internet cafe reached its peak. Everyone applauded, cheered, screamed, and whistled. This wasn’t a simple victory. Sun Xiang’s domineering performance with One Autumn Leaf ignited everyone’s hope. They seemed to see the era when One Autumn Leaf was invincible and swept the league again.

When one member of a team battle falls, their teammate takes their place, but there is no rest time in between. At this time, another player from Team 301 took the stage. Perhaps shocked by One Autumn Leaf’s momentum in the previous match, this player’s performance was obviously below par, becoming the fastest to lose in the five one-on-one battles so far.

After two matches, One Autumn Leaf’s health loss was only a quarter. The commentators Pan Lin and Li Yibo, and the audience in Happy Internet Cafe, had already begun to enthusiastically discuss the possibility of Sun Xiang taking on three opponents by himself. Judging from the current situation, it seemed like there was no suspense at all.

The third player from Team 301 took the stage. Compared to the second player, this one was even more timid, almost daring not to have any direct contact with One Autumn Leaf. His footwork was very diligent. As soon as One Autumn Leaf made any offensive move, he immediately dodged in a hurry, as if his eyebrows were on fire.

The audience in the internet cafe was already laughing. This third player looked like he didn’t dare to fight Sun Xiang’s One Autumn Leaf at all, but he had to bite the bullet and go up. After coming up, he didn’t dare to be perfunctory, so he had to jump around here in a tangled manner, as if trying to be cute.

“This guy is really spineless. Hahahaha!” The internet cafe audience discussed loudly. The haze of losing two consecutive individual matches had been swept away. The third player from Team 301 was like a clown, amusing everyone. In contrast, Sun Xiang’s One Autumn Leaf seemed even taller and more majestic.

“Brother Xu, you’re really making things difficult for me!” Sun Xiang typed a sentence at this time, and the ridicule was obvious.

But his opponent always maintained a defensive stance of seven parts defense and three parts escape, seeming to have no intention of fighting to the death. Being so cautious, Sun Xiang spent a long time to take him down, feeling very embarrassed. After knocking down his opponent, he typed another sentence: “Why bother? The result is still the same, isn’t it?”

At that moment, all the audience had only one thought: "Finally, it's over."

Pan Lin and Li Yibo probably felt suffocated watching this match as well, but as commentators, they couldn’t make fun of the players. In the end, Pan Lin said: "This match was a hard-won victory for Sun Xiang. He’s worthy of being called the 'Grind King,' Xu Bin! Whenever he plays a match, not only his opponents, but also the audience, and even us commentators and guests, are very tired!"

"But this is also a reflection of the players' professional spirit. In a match that basically has no chance of winning, Xu Bin still let us fully see his strengths," Li Yibo said.

"That's right, we saw it too much," Pan Lin responded. The two of them praised and criticized Team 301’s third player, Xu Bin, in a roundabout way.

"Alright, there’s still a break before the team competition. Let’s enjoy the wonderful highlights of Sun Xiang and One Autumn Leaf’s one-versus-three performance in this team competition."

The highlights were played, and Pan Lin and Li Yibo made some comments. Sun Xiang's third match against Xu Bin lasted longer than the first two matches combined, but the footage in the highlights was less than that of the first and second matches. Pan Lin and Li Yibo couldn't help but satirize again.

After the highlights were played, there was still some time before the final highlight, the team competition. The program inserted advertisements, and the audience took a short break, queuing up to go to the bathroom, getting water, and going out for a smoke. The internet cafe was like a market, with people coming and going.

Chen Guo was obviously used to this scene. She turned her head and saw that Ye Xiu was still standing at the door of the internet cafe, smoking a cigarette. Under the cover of the night, a little fire flickered, looking very lonely.

But the problem was that there were clearly seats here. Why did this guy have to lean against the corner of the door and pretend to be pitiful? Chen Guo couldn’t help but call out to Ye Xiu twice.

"What?" Ye Xiu asked.

"What are you doing standing there all the time? Come and sit down!" Chen Guo said.

"I'm afraid the smoke will choke you," Ye Xiu said, shaking the cigarette in his mouth twice. This guy could hold a cigarette in his mouth without affecting his speech at all, and the cigarette wouldn't fall out or anything. His control was amazing.

Chen Guo was stunned. Was this guy hiding there just because he was afraid of being choked by the smoke? Was he that nice?

"Can't you smoke less?" Chen Guo said.

Ye Xiu raised his hand and took off the cigarette butt, flicked his finger, and the sparks drew an arc in the darkness, accurately hitting the trash can. Then Ye Xiu walked back and sat down.

Chen Guo looked at him, but in the end, she didn’t say anything. The broadcast finally entered the highlight of each round of the league: the team competition.

In general, each team has six main players to ensure that all three parts of the competition are completed. The Glory League stipulates that the maximum number of players who can register for each match is nine, and the roster is usually announced before the match. Therefore, the number of professional players in a club team is usually between 9 and 11. Although some clubs had a minimum of six players in the early stages due to tight resources, they would quickly expand the number of players after the situation improved. After all, relying on only six people would affect the results of the match if someone got sick or had other accidents.

Currently, the clubs in the league all have at least one outstanding ace player, supplemented by three or five strong players. For the list beyond the six players, everyone mostly likes to sign some potential new talents to train.

There are many ways to discover new talent, including self-recommendation, discovery in some non-professional competitions, or exceptionally outstanding performance in the arena of the Glory online game. In short, the Glory League, which has been operating smoothly for nearly seven years based on the experience of past e-sports leagues, has a fairly mature and complete system in all aspects, not inferior to the circles of traditional sports such as football and basketball.

Under normal circumstances, with no accidents for the main players, the three parts of the match would generally be completed by six people.

This match between Team 301 and Team Excellent Era was the same. In the final team competition, a total of 12 people who had played in the individual competition and team competition would complete it.

With the commentators Pan Lin's passionate shouts, the team competition officially began.

Team 301 was the home team, and they chose the map as usual. But Team Excellent Era had just completed the feat of Sun Xiang taking on three opponents by himself, and they were in the limelight for a while. Pan Lin and Li Yibo also talked about whether this match would be the turning point for Team Excellent Era’s decline this season.

"It's starting! It's starting!" As the match began, Chen Guo clapped along with the internet cafe audience.

"Don't be so excited!" Ye Xiu said.

"It’s fun to watch the match. You can’t enjoy it if you’re not invested. You should cheer up too!” Chen Guo was really helpless with Ye Xiu. He was so energetic when he played games all night, or even kept playing after staying up all night, but at other times, why was he always so listless? So boring.

"The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment," Ye Xiu said.

"What do you mean?" Chen Guo heard something in his words.

"Watch the match, it's starting," Ye Xiu said calmly.
