Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou

Finally, at the 22-minute mark of the match, Lin Feng's Ornn reached level 13!
He immediately upgraded his and Uzi's Xayah with Mythic items! Uzi's Gale Force instantly gained additional attack damage, attack speed, and critical strike chance!

"RNG's chance has come! Their strongest moment has arrived!"

The battle for the third little dragon, the Alchemy Dragon Soul, became the final battleground!

RNG's five players positioned themselves early, securing advantageous terrain.

TES knew they couldn't afford to delay any longer, so they gathered five players and charged forward aggressively.

Wayward's crocodile unleashed its ultimate ability, charging ahead into the enemy ranks!

However, he was facing an Ornn who was so incredibly powerful that it was outrageous!

Lin Feng's Ornn uses his W skill to apply the Vulnerable effect to the crocodile, and then lands a basic attack!

The massive percentage damage caused the crocodile's health to drop significantly in an instant!

Just then, Lin Feng pressed his R key!
"The Call of the God of Forging!"
A colossal lava behemoth is charging in from afar!

TES's formation was forced to break up!
Karsa's Jarvan IV seized the opportunity, using his EQ combo to knock up the enemy support Yuumi, and then using his ultimate "Cataclysm" to trap her!
Xiaohu's Lissandra uses her E skill to enter the fray, then uses her ultimate to freeze herself, dealing area damage and slowing enemies!
Team fight, erupts instantly!
Knight's Sylas stole Ornn's ultimate again, attempting a counterattack.

But Lin Feng had been waiting for this moment!
He ignored the crocodile in front of him and instead controlled Ornn to deliver a powerful headbutt in one direction!
He crashed into the second part of his own ultimate move!

The lava behemoth changed direction and charged towards TES's backline—Sivir and Sylas!

"Great! Lin Feng's target is the back row!"

The massive knockback effect launched Sivir and Sylas high into the air!

Uzi's Xayah, in the perfect environment created by his teammates, activated his W skill "Deadly Feather Robe", maximizing his attack speed and unleashing a barrage of feathers!

Damage, explosion!
Sivir didn't even have time to activate her spell shield before she was instantly melted! Knight's Sylas was also reduced to low health and had to use Flash to escape.

Without their two core players, TES was utterly defeated!
RNG pulled off a perfect 5-0 team wipe!
"It flipped! It flipped again!"

Inside RNG's training room, Coach Heart excitedly pumped his fist.

This is the RNG he wanted! Victory wasn't won through individual flashes of brilliance, but through the team's resilience, tenacious defense, and impeccable team fight coordination!

After securing Baron Nashor, RNG steadily advanced, giving TES no further chances.

After securing a perfect 5-0 team wipe and the Baron buff, the tide of victory seemed to have completely turned in RNG's favor. Everyone believed the game was now a foregone conclusion. The RNG players, brimming with high morale, began organizing a mid-lane push, preparing to end this difficult match in one fell swoop.

However, TES, a team known for its offense and resilience, did not give up. The word "surrender" does not exist in their dictionary.

"Hold on! Hold on! We can fight!" JackeyLove's voice rang out in TES's team voice chat. He showed no signs of discouragement, remaining unusually calm. "Sivir with Yuumi is invincible defending the high ground! Hold on, hold on until Sylas and Renekton respawn, we still have a chance!"

RNG, with the Baron buff, pushed towards TES's mid-lane high ground. Lin Feng's Ornn stood at the forefront, like a moving mountain, absorbing the turret damage for his teammates.

Uzi's Xayah and Xiaohu's Lissandra began to whittle down the high ground tower's health.

Just when the high ground tower's health was hanging by a thread, TES's counterattack began!

JackeyLove's Sivir, with her W skill "Bouncing," clears waves at an incredible speed. Simultaneously, she activates her ultimate "Hunter," granting a massive team movement speed boost, allowing Knight's Sylas and Wayward's Renekton, who had just respawned, to dash from the fountain straight to the battlefield like two cannonballs!

Mark's cat jumped off Sivir and precisely possessed the crocodile charging at the front, applying Exhaust and casting the ultimate "Grimoire of the End." Several magical ripples spread out, slowing down and immobilizing all the advancing RNG members!
"TES fought back! Their resilience is incredible!" White Crescent shouted excitedly backstage.

Wayward's crocodile, boosted by double speed, moved like a mad dog, flashing and using W to bite RNG's backline—Uzi's Xayah!

"Uzi has been caught out!"

Ming's Tahm Kench reacted swiftly, swallowing Xayah whole in an attempt to protect her.

But Knight's Sylas has already circled around to a tricky flank!

He stole the prince's ultimate move!

The E skill "Strike" pulls them closer, followed by the second E, and then "Cataclysm" captures Xayah, who was just spat out by Tahm Kench, and Ming next to her in the same frame!

At the same time, Tian's Lee Sin landed a precise Q skill on Karsa's Jarvan IV, and the Echo Slash combined with the damage instantly crippled him!

RNG's formation was completely disrupted in the blink of an eye!
"RNG is in big trouble! Their backline has been completely destroyed by Sylas and Renekton!"

Lin Feng's Ornn fought with all his might, using his ultimate to knock up several TES players, but he couldn't fight off overwhelming odds. Without his backline damage dealers, he was eventually overwhelmed and fell to the ground under the combined attack of three TES warriors.

One wave... 2 for 5!

Despite having a significant advantage, RNG was nearly wiped out by TES on their high ground! Only Karsa's Jarvan IV escaped with a sliver of health.

Inside TES's training room, shouts of relief erupted!

"We held it! We held it!"

After this team fight, the situation instantly became unpredictable. TES not only defended their high ground but also secured the newly spawned Alchemist Dragon. Although RNG still held an economic lead, TES possessed the "last gasp" effect of the Alchemist Dragon Soul, giving them endless possibilities in the next team fight.

The match was dragged into the late stages, 40 minutes into the game.

Both sides have completed their six divine equipment items.

Lin Feng's Ornn was incredibly tanky. His equipment consisted of Sunfire Cape, Thornmail, Abyssal Mask, Randuin's Omen, and Gargoyle Stoneplate. He upgraded four items for his teammates, making him an insurmountable mountain on his own.

On the TES side, Knight's Sylas and JackeyLove's Sivir are equally devastating.

The final battle, inevitably, arrived before the ancient dragon's pit.

This ancient dragon will determine the final outcome of this grueling 45-minute battle.

The two sides engaged in a prolonged battle for vision and a high-stakes tug-of-war near the Dragon Pit. The air seemed to freeze; every skill cast and every movement gripped the hearts of everyone present.

"Both sides are being too cautious! Neither dares to make the first move to attack the dragon!"

Knight's Sylas constantly exploited blind spots in vision to try and steal the ultimate abilities of key RNG heroes. Meanwhile, RNG grouped up tightly, giving TES no chance to split the battlefield.

In the stalemate, Lin Feng's Ornn made a bold move.

Instead of applying pressure head-on, he went alone and went around to the shadows behind the dragon pit.

"Lin Feng is flanking! He's trying to find the perfect angle for his ultimate move!"

TES's vision system detected this, and they immediately began to pull back, trying to avoid Ornn's encirclement.

Just as TES retreated, Karsa's Jarvan IV seized the opportunity!
With a quick EQ flash, he knocked up the last support Yuumi from an unexpected angle!

"Karsa's here! Target: Cats!"

However, this is precisely a trap for TES!
Mark's cat used Flash the instant it was launched into the air, and jumped off Sivir to attach itself to the front-line crocodile!
He used himself as bait to lure RNG into making the first move!
Just as the prince used his EQ combo to engage, Knight's Sylas, like a cheetah that had been waiting for a long time, stole the prince's ultimate and countered with a "cataclysmic attack," trapping RNG's Lissandra and Rakan who were following up!

Tian's Lee Sin kicked Ming's Rakan out of the battlefield!

RNG's control chain was instantly broken!

"They've been tricked! RNG has been tricked! This is a perfect tactical design!" White Crescent excitedly stood up from his chair.

RNG's formation was broken up again! Uzi's Xayah was chased by Sivir and Lee Sin, and was exhausted.

On the front lines, RNG found themselves at a huge disadvantage!

Just when everyone thought RNG would repeat the same mistake again!
The figure that had circled around behind moved!

Lin Feng's Ornn did not choose to release his ultimate from behind because TES's formation had already spread out, making it difficult for the ultimate to hit multiple people.

He activated his W skill "Breath of the Bellows," activated Gargoyle Stoneplate, and gained a huge shield. Then, like an out-of-control heavy tank, he charged straight at JackeyLove's Sivir, who was chasing Uzi, from the flank!

He didn't use any control skills; he just used his body to bump into and block!

"Lin Feng is protecting the ADC with his own body! He's creating space for Uzi to deal damage!"

JackeyLove was extremely annoyed by this sudden "bump and run" incident, as all his output was absorbed by Ornn's massive body.

Those few seconds bought Uzi the most precious time!
Uzi's Xayah, after seeing the space Lin Feng had created for her, took a deep breath and stopped running away.

She activated her W ability, used Gale Force to reposition herself, and then unleashed a barrage of attacks on Sivir and Lee Sin, who were being held down by Ornn!
Feathers flying everywhere! Barbs!

The damage was instantly maxed out!

"Uzi is still dealing damage! His damage output is incredible!"

On the front lines, Xiaohu's Lissandra used her ultimate to freeze herself before being instantly killed, thus buying enough time.

When TES finally finished off the front line and turned to deal with Xayah, they were horrified to find that Sivir and Lee Sin's health bars were almost empty!
Double Kill! Uzi gets a double kill!

At this moment, the situation on the battlefield underwent a stunning reversal!

Without their ADC and jungler, TES is severely lacking in damage output.

Lin Feng's Ornn, like a god of war, turned around, used his Q skill to slow down the enemy, and then used a basic attack to finish off the low-health Renekton with the help of his teammates!
In the end, only Knight's Sylas remained, and in despair, he was caught up by the RNG team and beaten to death.

A devastating 3-for-5 exchange!

RNG won this crucial team fight that determined their survival, at the cost of losing their mid, support, and jungle players!
“We won…we won…” Karsa’s voice trembled as she looked at the gray screen.

Lin Feng and Uzi, two carries with low health, led a wave of minions towards the Elder Dragon.

After securing the Ancient Dragon Soul, they didn't even go back to base, heading straight for TES's mid lane.

At this moment, the TES players with the fastest respawn time have 15 seconds left.

enough.

When Lin Feng's Ornn delivered the final blow to TES's base crystal, the entire RNG training room erupted in cheers of relief.

Coach Heart slumped helplessly in his chair. The tension of this match was no less than that of any official final.

He looked at the huge "Victory" on the screen, then at the team members' faces, which showed a mixture of fatigue and excitement, and finally a relieved smile appeared on his face.

When TES's base crystal shattered on the screen for the third time, the tension that had been building in RNG's training room finally eased completely. The players leaned back in their gaming chairs in unison and let out a long sigh of relief. The intensity and tension of this BO5 match had completely exceeded the scope of a regular scrim; it was more like a condensed version of the entire season's grudges and rivalries.

Coach Heart paced back and forth, finally stopping behind the players with a complex expression of both satisfaction and helplessness on his face.

"You played well," he said, giving his approval at first, then changed the subject with a hint of teasing, "It was just a bit tough on Coach. I feel like my heart will be ten years younger after this game, because it stopped beating several times."

His words drew laughter from everyone, instantly easing the tense atmosphere.

"Alright, everyone, stop sitting there and start packing up." Heart clapped his hands and announced, "Everyone worked hard today, especially in that last game, you were all highly focused. It's on me! Let's go get something good to eat and replenish our energy! Order whatever you want!"

"Wow! Coach is so generous!" Xiao Hu was the first to exclaim.

"I want to eat barbecue! Top-quality Wagyu beef!" Karsa responded immediately.

"Hot pot! Haidilao!" Uzi chimed in.

The team members chattered excitedly, their post-victory fatigue quickly dispelled by the allure of the delicious food.

Lin Feng smiled as he took off his headphones and was about to get up when his phone vibrated in his pocket. He took it out and saw it was a WeChat message from Rita.

"Have you finished the training match? You're a pro~" was followed by a cute cat emoji peeking out.

A gentle smile unconsciously curved Lin Feng's lips as he quickly typed a reply: "Just finished typing, almost messed up."

Rita replied to the message almost instantly: "Hehe, I knew you guys could win! How are you? Tired? Want me to bring you some late-night snacks?"

Looking at the playful text on the screen, Lin Feng felt a warmth in his heart. All the fatigue of the day seemed to be healed in that instant. Just as he was about to reply, Coach Heart walked past him and inadvertently glanced at his phone screen.

Coach Heart is a shrewd and experienced man. When he saw the unusually gentle expression on Lin Feng's face and the familiar profile picture on the chat interface, he immediately understood what was going on.

He cleared his throat and deliberately spoke loudly, "Hey, Raymond Lam, who are you chatting with? You're laughing so happily. Is it... Miss Rita?"

That shout instantly silenced the entire training room. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Lin Feng, their eyes gleaming with gossip.

Lin Feng's cheeks flushed slightly, a rare occurrence, and he reluctantly put away his phone.

"coach……"

"Hey, don't be shy!" Xiao Hu was the first to come up, grinning mischievously. "Brother Feng, you're pretty good, you've been keeping it a secret! When did you win him over?"

Uzi chimed in, "No wonder Fengzi is always in such great shape, turns out he's got the glow of love on his face!"

"Go away, don't talk nonsense." Lin Feng denied it verbally, but his ears were already turning red.

Coach Heart flashed a confident smile, pulled out his phone, and exclaimed, "Perfect timing! I'm pretty close to Rita. Since she's so concerned about our heroine, we can't be stingy. I'll ask her where she is and have her come over for dinner! What do you all think?"

"Good!" The team members cheered in unison, their voices deafening.

Lin-Feng tried to stop him, but it was too late. Coach Heart had already dialed the number and put it on speakerphone.

Rita's clear and melodious voice came quickly from the other end of the phone: "Hello? Coach Heart? What's up so late?"

"Haha, Rita, did I disturb you?" Coach Heart said with a smile. "We just finished a practice match, and I was planning to take these guys out for a celebratory dinner. Look, our hero Lin Feng is chatting with you right now. I was thinking, why don't we invite you along too, so everyone can have some fun!"

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone, followed by Rita's slightly shy yet delighted voice: "Oh? Is this... convenient?"

"Convenient! What's inconvenient about it!" Xiao Hu shouted eagerly. "Sister Rita, come quick! Brother Feng has been missing you so much he's practically malfunctioning!"

"Hahahaha!" The whole team burst into good-natured laughter.

Lin Feng was speechless, wishing he could disappear into the ground.

Finally, after everyone's enthusiastic invitation, Rita agreed.

Half an hour later, everyone sat together in a private room of a high-end Japanese barbecue restaurant.

When Rita pushed open the door, everyone's eyes lit up. She wasn't wearing her usual formal dress for commentary, but a simple white knit sweater paired with jeans, her long hair casually draped over her shoulders, making her look exceptionally pure and charming, with a touch of domestic gentleness.

"Sister Rita!" the team members greeted her warmly.

Rita smiled somewhat embarrassedly, her gaze sweeping around the private room before naturally settling on Lin Feng.

Coach Heart very "thoughtfully" pointed to the empty seat next to Raymond Lam: "Rita, sit here, sit here. I specially saved this seat next to Raymond Lam for you."

"Thank you, Coach." Rita's cheeks flushed slightly as she gracefully sat down next to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng could smell a faint, pleasant shampoo scent emanating from her, which made even his battle-hardened heart skip a beat.

The atmosphere became even more lively after the barbecue was served.

While grilling the meat, Xiao Hu couldn't resist teasing, "Brother Feng, don't just eat it all yourself, grill some for Sister Rita! It's time to show your gentlemanly manners!"

Lin Feng had no choice but to pick up the tongs, take a piece of sizzling, oily top-grade Wagyu beef, and carefully place it on Rita's plate.

"Thank you," Rita said softly, her head bowed, as she picked up the piece of meat with her chopsticks and ate it in small bites, her blush deepening.

"Oh my, I can't watch anymore, it's too sweet!" Karsa exaggeratedly covered her eyes.

Just then, Uzi picked up a piece of grilled pork belly, dipped it in sauce, and held it directly to Lin Feng's mouth: "Brother Feng, you've worked hard too, come on, open your mouth!"

This sudden action stunned everyone.

Lin Feng was also taken aback. Looking at U-zi's sincere (and greasy) eyes, he didn't know how to react for a moment.

Before he could even speak, Rita suddenly reached out and, with her chopsticks, gently but undeniably picked up the piece of meat that Uzi had handed her.

“Uzi,” Rita looked up, a sweet smile on her face, but with a hint of the authority of an “official wife” in her eyes, “he doesn’t like to eat anything too fatty. I’ll finish this piece for you.”

After saying that, she gracefully placed the piece of pork belly into her plate.

After a brief silence, the entire private room erupted in thunderous applause and cheers!
"Wow--!"

"So cool! Rita is so cool!"

"Uzi is completely defeated! Hahaha!"

Uzi was also completely bewildered, then burst into laughter.

Looking at the seemingly gentle but actually "food-protecting" girl beside him, Lin Feng felt an indescribable warmth and smile. He picked up the serving chopsticks, took a perfectly grilled piece of beef tongue, gently placed it in Rita's bowl, and said softly, "This isn't fatty, you can try it."

Rita looked up, met his gentle gaze, her eyes crinkling into crescents, and nodded firmly: "Mm!"

Their intimate and natural interaction needs no explanation.

Amidst the good-natured teasing and cheers of their teammates, the meal was enjoyed in a harmonious atmosphere. Although Raymond Lam and Rita didn't say anything outrageous, the unintentional understanding and closeness between them had already given everyone a good dose of "dog food" (a Chinese slang term for public displays of affection).

For Lin Feng, the fatigue from training and the pressure of the competition seemed to be dissolved in the gentlest way by the girl sitting next to him at this moment.

And she was destined to be an unforgettable presence in Lin Feng's life. (End of Chapter)
