Was this the end?

Gao Yingjie, whose vision was plunged into darkness, thought with some resignation.

No!

A voice immediately rose from the bottom of his heart because he seemed to hear that sentence in his ear again.

Shoulder the future of Tiny Herb!

It wasn't over yet.

Dark Boundary, no damage, just losing sight. The posture when landing, the direction of the character...

Mu En suddenly stood up, his body slightly turned, facing the center of the ghost array, and rushed out!

What?

Everyone was shocked, repeatedly confirming whether the Dark Boundary had disappeared.

No, the Dark Boundary was still there. The effect of blindness could not be lifted so quickly. In other words, Gao Yingjie's vision was still dark, but he could still make such accurate operations? Was all of this done by memory? What an amazing intuition and feel!

Mu En flew into the air, drawing the broom Morning Dew from under him.

At this time, he could not make precise attack operations. He could only use skills that swept everything to disturb the opponent.

Broom Whirlwind!

Morning Dew was raised, and Mu En spun his body, stirring up a strong wind... For the victory of this match, he had tried his best. Even if he was trapped in the Silent Army and his skills were sealed, and he lost his vision in the Dark Boundary, he still did not give up.

But the audience couldn't bear to watch any longer.

They couldn't bear to see Gao Yingjie work so hard, but in the end, he couldn't achieve any expectations.

Mu Yu Chengfeng's cannon had already been raised, aimed at Mu En in the air, and a laser was immediately fired.

Boom...

Mu En in the air was immediately sent flying by this laser cannon.

Was it still impossible after all?

Gao Yingjie sighed... The opponent was still far from being inferior to the point where he could close his eyes and fight blindly!

The moment Mu En flew out of the Dark Boundary's boundary, his vision returned. Gao Yingjie quickly adjusted his posture, and then saw the center of the ghost array where Winter Insect Summer Grass was located. Several ghost arrays overlapped, and various statuses and damages covered Winter Insect Summer Grass's whole body. The light and shadow intertwined into a mess, and the colors that flashed were all black.

One Inch Ash's katana was raised high at this moment. The ghost arrays all over the ground seemed to hear a call, and the power of the ghosts and gods became restless.

Ghost God's Meal!

All the power of the ghosts and gods burst out at this moment! The power of the ghosts and gods flowed wildly, searching for targets within the range of the ghost array. How dare the Tiny Herb players step forward at this time? But in the very center, above all the overlapping ghost arrays, Tiny Herb's healer, Winter Insect Summer Grass, was being devoured by all the power of the ghosts and gods.

Boom!

Another satellite beam descended from the sky, gathering with these bared fangs and brandished claws of ghost and god power, completely engulfing Winter Insect Summer Grass, leaving not even a corner of his clothes...

Tiny Herb's healer fell.

At this moment, the outcome had been decided in the hearts of countless people. The Tiny Herb team's home stadium was silent, only the Xingxin fans who had faithfully followed the team to the away game were singing and dancing, welcoming this soon-to-be-arrived crazy victory.

"Really... too incredible." This adjective was frequently used in the match's broadcast commentary today. And this time, seeing Xingxin kill Tiny Herb's healer, Pan Lin once again used this word to describe it.

Even if Tiny Herb's morale was low and somewhat panicked after Xingxin killed Wang Jiexi before, the absolute disadvantage of being one person short still made everyone more optimistic about Tiny Herb. Ruan Cheng gritted his teeth on the side, waiting for Tiny Herb to eliminate Xingxin so that he could pick out the problems Xingxin had committed today.

But now, it seemed unnecessary.

Tiny Herb's healer was killed. This blow was too decisive. Next, there shouldn't be any heaven-defying miracles happening, right?

No more.

Enough shocking things had happened today.

After that, Tiny Herb's four attackers tried to forcefully kill Little Cold Hands, but One Inch Ash's ghost array quickly provided the best protection for Little Cold Hands. When An Wenyi could safely stand still and heal, Lord Grim fighting in the front was so unscrupulous.

Without reversal, without a comeback, the match came to an end. Xingxin defeated Tiny Herb in the away game, with a total score of 8 to 2.

Too many things needed to be digested, making the scene a bit silent. The players from both sides walked out of the competition seats one after another, and came to the center of the competition field, just like before the team competition started. But at this time, they were divided into winners and losers. One side could laugh as much as they wanted, and the other side had to taste all the bitterness.

Wang Jiexi, the first person to be killed in this match, calmly looked at the team of players in front of him.

Ye Xiu... If you really started counting from when I entered the league, the two sides have been competing together for a full seven seasons. Judging by the results alone, Ye Xiu, who hadn't appeared on the finals battlefield since the fourth season, seemed to be slightly inferior to Wang Jiexi, who had entered the finals three times and won the championship twice.

In the regular season, they played against each other 14 times, with each side winning and losing.

In the seventh season playoffs, the two teams met in the first round, and Tiny Herb sent Ye Xiu's team, Excellent Era, out of the playoffs. It was after that battle that people shouted wildly, believing that Ye Qiu's era had completely ended. But for some reason, Wang Jiexi always felt that he had not really defeated this opponent. This was not only because of the achievements and trophies that both sides had obtained, but also because of the feeling on the spot. At that time, Excellent Era's combat effectiveness in the playoffs was so scattered that even Wang Jiexi, the opponent, couldn't bear to watch it.

That battle became the last time the two played against each other. In the eighth season regular season, before Tiny Herb and Excellent Era met, Ye Qiu announced his retirement.

Upon hearing this news, Wang Jiexi couldn't understand it at all.

Although there were such and such claims from the outside world, as an opponent on the field, he only knew one thing: Ye Xiu's competitive state was far from the point where he needed to retire. Excellent Era had problems with the team...

But all of this didn't matter with Ye Qiu's retirement. His responsibility was to lead Tiny Herb to continuous victory.

And now, this guy was back. Ye Qiu had become Ye Xiu. He didn't know what he was up to, but none of this mattered. He had used a year and a half to put together the team in front of him, and then defeated himself again in the match.

When was the last time I lost to this guy?

Wang Jiexi couldn't remember very clearly either. The details he could clearly recall had to go back to the third season when he won the Best Rookie award. The so-called Rookie King was really vulnerable in front of the Great God Ye Qiu! The magical style of play that was called by the outside world as being unconstrained by convention didn't have any of the amazingness that magic should have in front of Ye Qiu. One Autumn Leaf waved that famous silver weapon, Unyielding Strike, and used the Battle Mage style of play that was everywhere in the player's guides, knocking his Magician bloody and bruised. Excellent Era, which he carried on his shoulders, was really invincible in that era.

This time, are you going to carry such a team on your shoulders again?

"Congratulations," Wang Jiexi extended his right hand to Ye Xiu, who had come to him.

"Thank you," Ye Xiu stretched out his right hand and shook it.

"We'll win next time," Wang Jiexi said.

"Oh? You guys?" Ye Xiu smiled, looked at the Tiny Herb team in front of him. They lost the match, so their emotions were naturally not high. Gao Yingjie was especially painful and unwilling, and his head was buried deeply. You could clearly see tears falling one by one.

"If they treat you as a role model, not a backer," Ye Xiu said, walked away, and shook hands with Xu Bin, who was next to Wang Jiexi.

Role model?

Backer?

Wang Jiexi was stunned, so much so that he didn't react when Fang Rui walked up to him and extended his hand until Xu Bin reminded him, and then he quickly shook hands with Fang Rui.

Was he saying that he had been trying too hard all along? But when you were in Excellent Era, didn't you also try your best to carry the team on your shoulders? Wang Jiexi looked at Ye Xiu's receding figure and saw him walk to Gao Yingjie, who was at the end of the team.

Gao Yingjie was still hanging his head. When he saw someone coming to him, he didn't raise his head, but just stretched out his right hand.

"You did a good job," Ye Xiu took the initiative to talk to him, "but just awareness and determination are far from enough. Who doesn't have that kind of thing?"

After Ye Xiu finished speaking, he walked away. Gao Yingjie raised his head in surprise and looked at him. After Ye Xiu, the players from Xingxin walked past him one by one, shaking hands, until the last member of the Xingxin team, Qiao Yifan.

More than a year of time can lead to many changes for teenagers of their age, both in appearance and in temperament.

Both of them were taller, and the childishness on their faces had faded a lot. Gao Yingjie still had tears on his face. When he saw his old friend, he realized it, and hurriedly raised his hand to wipe it.

Qiao Yifan didn't laugh at him. He just took out a box of tissues from his pocket and handed it to Gao Yingjie.

Gao Yingjie took it, but didn't wipe away his tears again.

"Yifan, you're so amazing now," Gao Yingjie said.

"You're also amazing. You're still such a genius. You can still fight in the Dark Boundary," Qiao Yifan said.

"What's the use? We still lost." Gao Yingjie said, still dejected.

"Keep up the good work!" Qiao Yifan said.

"Yeah, I must win next time," Gao Yingjie said.

"Okay," Qiao Yifan smiled, not minding the implied meaning of "you will definitely lose" in the other party's statement of "I must win."

The match came to an end. At the post-match press conference, both sides gave high praise to each other's performance. At Tiny Herb's press conference, captain Wang Jiexi repeatedly showed a pensive expression when answering questions, and their genius player Gao Yingjie showed a fortitude and determination that he had never shown before after this defeat.

At Xingxin's press conference, Ruan Cheng, who had carefully prepared to dig at Xingxin after they lost the match, ended up not attending the press conference at all. But soon, the TV station's e-sports channel received countless opinions from viewers. Everyone said that they hoped to hear commentary in the match broadcast that was at least reliable, even if the level wasn't high, rather than Ruan Cheng's kind of incomprehensible commentary that clearly carried personal bias.

The twenty-seventh round of the competition came to an end. Xingxin's away victory over Tiny Herb was quite surprising. But besides that, Hundred Blossoms team, after going soft for who knows how many matches, suddenly hardened up in this round's home game, 8 to 2, defeating Blue Rain team.

==============================

The match with Tiny Herb was finally over, and the daily tasks that were owed were finally cleared. A burst of updates during the day, and then do today's daily tasks at night, how's that for a rhythm?
