Chapter 108 The Philosophy Clash

Fang Rui and Zhao Yuzhe's dispute caused Hu Xiao's captain, Tang Hao, to reveal a displeased expression. His gaze mostly lingered on Fang Rui's side, and his attitude clearly showed his inclination.

Everyone was silent, as if only three people were left in Team Hu Xiao at this time.

And of these three, Zhao Yuzhe continued to glare at Fang Rui with an unconvinced expression. Tang Hao wasn't as indignant as Zhao Yuzhe, but his expression wasn't much better either. As for Fang Rui? This guy was still operating the game at this time.

His Guiyi Shenmi suddenly rushed out again at this moment.

What? You know you regret it now? Zhao Yuzhe, who was also in the game, quickly saw Guiyi Shenmi's actions and realized that he was chasing after the path that Team Xing Xin's characters had taken.

"It's too late to chase now, isn't it?" Zhao Yuzhe said in a sarcastic tone.

But Fang Rui's Guiyi Shenmi immediately stopped chasing, just stopping there, looking around as if searching for something.

Zhao Yuzhe couldn't help but move his Shaoguang Huan over, and the other two players' characters followed suit.

Fang Rui was looking at the passage where Team Xing Xin had left. After all, Zhao Yuzhe was a player with quite good qualities. Two years of his professional career had accumulated considerable tactical literacy. Looking at this passage, he couldn't help but realize how this turning point could be used. In an instant, he also realized that Fang Rui was right.

Team Xing Xin did have preparations, and at this turning point, several classes in Xing Xin had very suitable ambush methods.

"So what?" Zhao Yuzhe stubbornly said, "With their health, what can an ambush do to us?"

"In the second, fourth, fifth, and seventh seasons of the professional league, there were teams that thought the same way in similar situations, and they were all eliminated in the end," Fang Rui said.

"..." Zhao Yuzhe was stunned. He didn't know about so many past examples and couldn't think of which match Fang Rui was talking about for a moment.

"Thinking it's safe just because the other party has low health? Quickly throw away that naive idea! Glory isn't as sweet as you think," Fang Rui said.

"I..." Zhao Yuzhe was completely speechless. Fang Rui didn't say much to him after that, but glanced at their captain, Tang Hao: "Let's continue."

"Okay," Tang Hao nodded. Having already left the game, he had heard the entire conversation between the two. It was very clear at this time who was right and who was wrong with the two different judgments just now.

The four people who were still in the game continued, and the other players on the team breathed a sigh of relief, but only Liu Hao was lost in thought at this time.

Others only saw two judgments of a problem, but what Liu Hao saw was the clash of two different styles of glory players in terms of philosophy.

Fang Rui's Wretched Style (dirty playstyle) didn't get along harmoniously and happily with Tang Hao, as well as Zhao Yuzhe, the new generation of pillars of Team Hu Xiao. After replacing Lin Jingyan with Tang Hao as the operator of Tang San Da, Fang Rui's style found it increasingly difficult to find direction in this kind of team. As Tang Hao's style became more mature and obvious, and as the captain and another main player, Zhao Yuzhe, rose to prominence, Fang Rui's living environment became even more difficult. At the same time, his existence made Tang Hao and Zhao Yuzhe very uncomfortable.

Team Hu Xiao's style change isn't thorough enough! If Tang Hao is the protagonist, then Lin Jingyan's era set of strategies probably won't work at all.

Team Hu Xiao still has more tossing to do!

In the game, the five members of Team Xing Xin quickly retreated. After finally not finding any pursuers, they stopped to rest. They ate food and drank water to restore health and mana. This was, after all, in the online game, not on the professional stage.

However, although it wasn't the professional arena, the danger was even greater. When had such a chaotic battle ever appeared on the professional stage?

The places where Team Xing Xin stopped to recover weren't just anywhere. Instead, Ye Xiu had chosen a place with a wide field of vision and no way to launch a sneak attack from any angle. Even after starting to recover, everyone was required not to use foods that made loud noises when eaten, and not to communicate using voice chat.

The five characters sat in a circle on the ground, silently recovering. The tense atmosphere created by Ye Xiu made everyone turn their heads from time to time to be alert and pay attention to their surroundings.

Team Xing Xin's caution didn't go to waste. In the silence, the clear sound of footsteps came from one end of the passage.

This wasn't the direction that Team Hu Xiao was coming from, so which team was it?

Team Ba Tu and Team Xing Xin were going in opposite directions, so it shouldn't be so quick to meet again. So, it should be two teams that they haven't seen yet, Team Huang Feng, or Team Yan Yu?

"Retreat first," Ye Xiu instructed in the channel.

The five characters got up and moved in forms that could hide the sound of footsteps, such as crouching and rolling, quickly finding a hiding place, which Ye Xiu had observed long ago.

The footsteps got closer and closer. Ye Xiu signaled the other characters to retreat, while his Jun Mo Xiao quietly moved forward a bit.

The five characters finally appeared.

It's Team Yan Yu!

Feng Cheng Yanyu, Yu Gai Mi Zhang, Lin An Cao Jing, Mo Gan Huan Shou, Shei Bu Di Tou. (Character names - pinyin only)

Team Yan Yu's class selection was as bold as Team Xing Xin's. They didn't bring a healer either. And in this team, they actually brought three Sharpshooters, plus Feng Cheng Yanyu, four long-range attackers, and then Lin An Cao Jing, a Ninja.

"Get ready for battle," Ye Xiu greeted the other four.

Their position was hidden, so Team Yan Yu couldn't directly discover them. It depended on how Team Yan Yu would act next. If they intended to investigate this side, Team Xing Xin would definitely strike first and catch them by surprise.

As a result, Team Yan Yu didn't seem to have any intention of going this way. Their team quickly passed this point and continued forward.

Team Xing Xin slowly解除了隐蔽 (jiechule yinbi - removed the concealment).

"Follow them," Ye Xiu said, "It's best to see them clash with Team Hu Xiao."

Ye Xiu just said that, and there was already gunfire ahead.

"So domineering, as expected of a professional team! They've already clashed!" Ye Xiu praised.

Team Hu Xiao didn't pursue immediately, but they still moved in this direction afterward. After all, there was still a clear Team Xing Xin active here. Since they hadn't given up yet, they would of course continue to work hard and maneuver with the various teams to seize the shards. As a result, they met Team Yan Yu like this.

Knowing that Team Xing Xin was ahead, Team Hu Xiao had been advancing with high alert all the way. When he heard the footsteps of Team Yan Yu approaching, Fang Rui thought that Team Xing Xin had recovered and launched a surprise attack. This situation was within his expectations. He quickly set up traps and arranged for the others to take their positions.

As the first trap was triggered, the battle quickly broke out. When Fang Rui showed up and saw the enemy, he immediately felt like crying.

If it wasn't Team Xing Xin, then that would be fine, but it was Team Yan Yu that came, and Team Yan Yu just happened to have so many long-range attackers. This compressed the power of his traps a lot. Long-range attackers didn't need to get close to launch attacks at all. If they didn't enter the trap area, where would the traps play a limiting role?

What bad luck today!

Fang Rui was depressed. Team Hu Xiao was disrupted again, and this time it was under his arrangement. Zhao Yuzhe felt like he had finally gotten some relief.

Then, Chu Yunxiu, Feng Cheng Yanyu!

This was really an opponent that Zhao Yuzhe wanted to face. He hoped that he could crush this one fiercely and then prove to people that he was the number one Elementalist. Although it was only in the online game now, this idea and consciousness had been deeply ingrained in his mind. As soon as he saw Feng Cheng Yanyu, his mood became enthusiastic, and he began to actively think about how to deal with Feng Cheng Yanyu.

"Withdraw!"

As a result, he heard the disappointing instruction again, it was Fang Rui again.

If the situation was slightly unfavorable, they would immediately avoid it. The enemy advances, we retreat; the enemy retreats, we harass. These were the guidelines of the Wretched Style. Now that Fang Rui was commanding the entire team, he naturally made judgments in his accustomed way.

But this made Fang Rui very unhappy, very unhappy.

"Withdraw again, when can we fight? Didn't we set up an ambush?" Zhao Yuzhe shouted. Although he also saw that their ambush had failed this time because Team Yan Yu had too many ranged classes, he just wanted to say it to slap Fang Rui in the face.

"The ambush wasn't right, retreat first." As a result, a master of the Wretched Style like Fang Rui didn't have that kind of pride and restraint and admitted that this ambush was a failure.

Damn, there's no way to communicate with this kind of person!

Zhao Yuzhe was very pained. The Glory philosophies recognized by both sides were completely different. However, seeing that his other two teammates had already started to retreat under Fang Rui's instructions, Zhao Yuzhe didn't dare to independently challenge Team Yan Yu's five fully healthy players. He could only follow them and run.

However, Team Yan Yu wouldn't let them go. The three Sharpshooters ran and shot all the way, biting down tightly.

The continuous gunfire gave Team Xing Xin good cover. Under this kind of sound effect, they didn't need to hide their footsteps and wouldn't be discovered. They followed very comfortably.

Soon, Team Hu Xiao retreated back to the location where Team Xing Xin had killed the female ghost and obtained fragment number one. As a result, when they looked at the collapsed partition wall, they felt like crying.

Another team has arrived in that direction, Team Huang Feng!

The pitiful four members of Team Hu Xiao were immediately surrounded. No matter how wretched Fang Rui was, it was difficult to lead the team to retreat completely in this situation. The only two paths out had been sealed!

They could only fight!

"You don't fight when you should fight, but you want to fight when you shouldn't!" Zhao Yuzhe called out in dissatisfaction.

Indeed, compared to just facing the five members of Team Yan Yu before, or chasing after the blood-remaining five members of Team Xing Xin before, the situation wasn't as bad as it was now.

However, only fight desperately when it's absolutely necessary. This was indeed one of the rules of the Wretched Style.

Team Huang Feng was naturally led by Tian Sen's exorcist, Sao Di Fen Xiang. From the start of last season, he had devoted a lot of effort to the online game. He wanted to help Team Huang Feng rise, but the effect was not good. Team Huang Feng once again failed to enter the playoffs last season. And he and his character, Sao Di Fen Xiang, regressed again in the All-Star selection, dropping to 21st place. With three more places behind him, he would disappear from the All-Star list.

Being selected for the All-Stars was already an honor for many players and characters. But Sao Di Fen Xiang, this was an early character who was famous alongside characters like One Autumn Leaf and Desert Dust! And now, he actually had to struggle for an All-Star spot? Fighting for a playoff spot was really incompetent in Tian Sen's eyes.

It must change!

Tian Sen shouted in his heart again and again. This summer, during the holidays, he devoted himself even more frantically to the online game.
