Su Mucheng, Bao Rongxing…

Team Tyranny had been researching and analyzing for three days, and today was pretty much the stage of summarizing their conclusions. They successively summarized the performances of Happy's two players in the match against Blue Rain.

Of course, the information they gathered from this match wasn't limited to that. Under Zhang Xinjie's meticulous arrangement, each point was clearly presented.

What should they do?

It was almost like the tacit understanding shown by Zhang Jiale. Everyone understood. However, because it was Zhang Xinjie, because of his rigor and conscientiousness, even Han Wenqing, who he had been familiar with for many years, was ultimately confirmed to ensure that everyone's understanding was correct.

Everything was proceeding in a tense and orderly manner.

Tyranny, Samsara, Tiny Herb, and also Happy, who had reached the top four in their first playoff appearance.

One step further, and it would be the grand finals.

One step further, and one hand would already be touching the trophy.

At this time, who would relax? Who would give up?

Every year in the Glory circle, the atmosphere becomes unusually solemn at this stage, and even the players in the Glory online game become unusually fiery.

Most of the teams that enter the top four have a considerable fan base. When expectations are extremely high, people often become sensitive and fragile. In addition, since there are four teams in the top four at this stage, it naturally means that four teams have been eliminated. These four teams are not weak either, and their fans are naturally not in a good mood at this time.

One day, two days…

In the tense atmosphere, time passed day by day.

The first match of the semi-finals was fast approaching.

The first match, Happy's away game against Tyranny, was about to take place at Happy's home stadium in H City.

Happy's home stadium, formerly Team Excellent Era's home stadium. In the Glory Alliance, probably no two teams have such a grudge as Excellent Era and Tyranny. When Excellent Era was relegated, countless people thought that the Alliance was missing a scene that season, and after that, Excellent Era simply disbanded and withdrew... This scene was about to disappear completely.

At this time, Happy, led by Ye Xiu, the former captain of Excellent Era, returned to the professional Alliance and inherited Excellent Era's original home stadium in H City. For a time, Tyranny fans' resentment towards Excellent Era was completely placed on Ye Xiu alone.

Of course, the feud between these two teams was indeed inseparable from Ye Xiu.

However, Happy was, after all, just Happy. To say that Happy was a continuation of Excellent Era? No one would be so presumptuous! It was Happy who eliminated Excellent Era in the Challenger League, leading to its eventual disbandment.

Fortunately, Excellent Era was eventually saved, leaving some foundation for reconstruction, and returned to the Alliance through the Challenger League this season. And around it, there has always been a group of Excellent Era die-hard fans who have never abandoned it.

However, there are still many people who always feel that Happy is more like Excellent Era, even though they are the team that defeated Excellent Era and caused it to collapse.

Simply because Happy is based in the former Excellent Era's home stadium, simply because Happy has Ye Xiu, the former captain of Excellent Era, in its ranks.

Ye Xiu, the creator of the Excellent Era dynasty.

Ye Xiu, the operator who made the name of Battle God One Autumn Leaf famous.

In any case, this past, this fact, is something that Ye Xiu can never abandon, something that many people cannot forget.

So, when Happy and Tyranny met in the playoffs, the topic of long-standing rivals, which had existed for a long time, was brought up by many people.

Excellent Era?

It's not good to say too much about this label now.

Ye Xiu!

Everyone is always talking about Ye Xiu, and even the name of Su Mucheng, the former core of Excellent Era, is rarely mentioned.

After all, Su Mucheng was not around when Excellent Era won three consecutive championships, and the grudges between Excellent Era and Tyranny were mostly established during this period. Su Mucheng happened to experience the season when Tyranny defeated Excellent Era to win the championship. In this way, Tyranny fans' hatred for Su Mucheng is naturally far less than Ye Xiu, who defeated and eliminated them for three consecutive seasons.

Happy versus Tyranny, this match was given a lot of weight, and the many highlights were repeatedly told by major publicity channels.

The match day arrived quickly.

And the fans gathered at the stadium were surprising.

Although Happy is now very popular, the home stadium was not so hot when they played against Blue Rain in the previous match.

Close to the game, the number of people gathered inside and outside the stadium, not to mention a full house, it would be difficult to find a solid, non-crowded place outside the stadium.

This kind of scene only appeared when Excellent Era played against Tyranny before.

Have Glory fans in H City regarded Happy as a substitute for Excellent Era?

Logically speaking, this possibility may exist, but the area should not be too large. After all, a loyal Excellent Era fan probably can't forget that Happy defeated Excellent Era in the Challenger League.

Excellent Era fans can hate Happy, they may not have any doubts, but to say they love them, these fans are probably fickle enough.

So what about so many Glory fans gathered at the scene?

The playoffs are covered extensively, and there will naturally be some special reports on this unusual pre-match prosperity. After a large circle of random interviews, everyone understood almost.

Many of the people gathered here don't really love Happy, but they have inherited the resentment of the past for Tyranny.

So now they are here. They are not cheering for Happy, but they hope that Tyranny will be unlucky. In the days without Excellent Era, many Excellent Era fans have inherited their grudges against Tyranny very well. This made the reporters who were interviewing on the scene feel very emotional: Although Excellent Era has disappeared from the professional Alliance for two years, Excellent Era's presence has always been there. This former powerhouse, the players can be scattered, the characters can be transformed, the stadiums can be replaced, but the memories they left in people's hearts will never change.

Excellent Era is a thought, a nostalgia for glory. And the resentment towards Tyranny may also be part of this thought.

So, there was one more topic.

Happy, this team that has also formed a major feud with Excellent Era, is now going to carry a thought of Excellent Era? This is a very contradictory situation.

Of course, among those interviewed, there were also some positive optimists. They gladly stated that they came here today to watch the fun. No matter who wins or loses between Happy and Tyranny, they will feel a sense of relief...

Various topics pushed the attention of the game to the peak, and even some fans who watched the game on the scene believed that they had seen Huang Shaotian's figure on the scene. In addition, there were those who said Yu Wenzhou, Yang Cong, Tang Hao...

In short, those professional players who did not have a match at this time seemed to have appeared in the audience of this match.

Who wins, who loses?

Everyone came for this eternal conclusion.

That evening, at eight o'clock, the Xiaoshan Sports Center was packed, and the large number of Glory fans gathered at the stadium did not leave. They didn't seem to need to appreciate the process. Knowing the result as soon as possible was worth their hard wait here.

Inside the stadium, in the preparation room, the players from both teams were preparing to enter the game.

"It's really lively today, huh?" Happy's Fang Rui said to everyone in a relaxed tone. After seven o'clock in the evening, Happy, as usual, walked out of the back door of the Internet cafe and was ready to cross the road directly to the Xiaoshan Stadium. As a result, when they crossed the road and arrived at the Xiaoshan Stadium, they were frightened. Such a formation, it would be strange if these already famous players could easily enter the arena through the proper channel!

Later, boss Chen Guo urgently contacted the staff of the stadium.

How long have the staff of this Xiaoshan Stadium been hosting Glory matches? Especially after experiencing the battle between Excellent Era and Tyranny, they were quite skilled in dealing with this kind of scene. As soon as they received Chen Guo's call, they immediately told them that the special passage was ready, and they also sent someone to lead Happy into the arena—the people at Xiaoshan Stadium also knew that Happy was just across the road from them.

After entering the arena, the crowd outside left a deep impression on them.

Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng were okay, as they came from Excellent Era and had experience. But Fang Rui, who was an All-Star player, had never seen this formation before. So, this guy with a rich resume was the first to sigh more than the other rookies.

"Why haven't these people dispersed yet? The game is about to start," Chen Guo said. She naively thought that the Glory fans who gathered together initially just wanted to get a ticket, and when the game was about to start and they didn't have a ticket, they would disperse. Who would have thought that their enthusiasm had already reached a point where not having a ticket couldn't stop them. Just gathering together outside the stadium, everyone happily waiting for the result, was a kind of joy.

"All I know is that these gathered crowds may not all be supporting us. Everyone, don't be too burdened," Ye Xiu said seriously.

Chen Guo was stunned.

The intention was good, but how could the logic in this be a little incomprehensible?

"Does Tyranny have so many fans here?" Tang Rou asked doubtfully. No matter how new she was, she knew a lot of things that she should know. Now the opponent was Tyranny, and Tang Rou knew the environment around Happy Internet Cafe in H City even before she entered the Glory circle.

"Maybe they're hoping for Tyranny to be unlucky," Ye Xiu said.

"Isn't that hoping for us to win?" Tang Rou said.

"It's also possible that they'll be very happy if we lose," Ye Xiu said.

Tang Rou was smart, and she understood after a slight turn of her head. "So we're only making a profit and not losing!" she exclaimed.

"So, let's just pretend they don't exist," Ye Xiu said.

Just as he was speaking, the door was knocked on, and the staff began to call the players from both teams to prepare to enter the arena.

Ye Xiu took the lead and walked out of the room, and immediately saw next door that Han Wenqing, the captain of Team Tyranny and his old opponent for many years, was also leading his team out of the room.

They looked at each other, without words, without expressions. Soon, the players from both teams lined up in the tunnel.

"When are you retiring?" Ye Xiu suddenly asked Han Wenqing, a very disappointing question.

"It's still early," Han Wenqing said with a firm gaze.

"Still want to win another championship?" Ye Xiu smiled, "No chance this year."

"Hmph," Han Wenqing sneered.

Ye Xiu turned his head and saw the third person in Tyranny's formation, raised his chin and said, "You have no chance for five second places either."

Zhang Jiale wished he had ten middle fingers to give to Ye Xiu.
