Full-time master: I have a spirit behind me.

Ye Qiu adjusted the channel and glanced at his father. The old man had said he didn't want to watch, but after adjusting the channel, his eyes were glued to the face on the screen.

Ye Qiu chuckled to himself, and his mother shook her head with amusement as well.

"They don't look any different, just playing video games," Mr. Ye muttered, putting on his glasses.

Ye's father always called his eldest son a wicked brat, but he never lacked concern for him. On several occasions, Ye Qiu even saw him watching Ye Xiu's matches on his phone late at night.

An old man who's all talk and no action but soft heart.

Ye Qiu smiled.

"It seems he's not doing as well as he claimed before," Ye's father said coldly. "Nobody's even registered his name."

"Hey, Dad, my brother was originally supposed to be the team leader to protect us. He wouldn't play unless there were special circumstances. Nobody could have predicted the last-minute replacement. Where are we going to make light boards now?" Ye Qiu stopped walking and plopped down on the sofa, though he was still a distance away from his father.

The old man gave an "oh" and then fell silent.

I just stared intently.

Although I couldn't understand it, I still watched it carefully.

……

Map selected...

【The insurmountable chasm of Thunderfield】!
"Everyone, pay attention, especially Xiao Wen and Xiao Zhou. The terrain of Tianqian Leiyuan is complicated, and there are random lightning strikes. Be careful with your flying shots and positioning," Ye Xiu said into his headset after glancing at the map.

"It's a good thing Captain Yu didn't play," Li Wen remarked inexplicably.

"What do you mean by that, Wen? Um, it seems to make some sense?" Huang Shaotian subconsciously wanted to retort, but stopped himself as he spoke.

Seems like there's nothing wrong with that? After all, our captain is using a warlock, who knows what might happen... right?
“Even Ye Xiu doesn’t usually dare to do anything good, so he needs to be more careful,” Zhang Xinjie said calmly.

"Just be careful not to get chopped up, you know?" Huang Shaotian perked up and immediately shifted his focus.

Just as Huang Shaotian didn't know how to defend Yu Wenzhou, Su Mucheng couldn't think of any good rebuttal either.

This little Wen… Ye Xiu smiled, the pressure of the upcoming battle eased a bit, but he still had some doubts in his heart.

Xiao Wen, do you usually make jokes like this?

Forget it...

As Huang Shaotian's noisy voice disappeared, it felt as if five people had vanished from the area.

Both sides agreed that upon entering the arena, the sixth player would automatically be added to the substitute seat.

The game has begun.

……

"It's the map of the Tianqian Leiyuan..." For a moment, even Xiao Shiqin couldn't quite tell whether the map was good or bad.

The game is highly random and requires players to have strong on-the-spot adaptability. It also has some limitations for characters with airtime abilities. However, "Xiao Wen" and Xiao Zhou are both top-notch professional marksmen, so there shouldn't be too much to worry about in this regard.

The complex terrain would be good for concealing Ye Xiu and Huang Shaotian's attacks, as well as for Su Mucheng and Zhang Xinjie's self-preservation. However, the opposing team also has a judoka, a ninja, and an elemental mage, and their substitute lineup includes an assassin...

“There are two Dark Night factions on the other side, we win!” Zhang Jiale nodded seriously: “Luck is on our side, the Dark Night faction is the easiest to get struck by lightning.”

"That makes sense..." Sun Xiang paused for a moment, pondered, and nodded: "Our starting lineup already gives us a half-win chance!"

Yu Wenzhou gave a bitter laugh, while Fang Rui, with a dark face, didn't want to say a word.

A thunderous roar shattered the towering timer in the center of the arena, and the lightning bolts, accompanied by a crimson flash, vanished into the lightning field.

The competition has officially begun.

Ye Xiu took a deep breath: "I'll repeat myself again, I'll be in charge of this match. Zhang Xinjie will be responsible for checking for any shortcomings and controlling the overall match. Li Wen's orders are the third priority, and will automatically take over as the first priority after I leave the field."

"Now, Zhou, use your mobility to advance towards the enemy's territory. Li, maintain a maximum distance of ten yards. If you encounter enemies ahead, focus on attrition and entanglement. Your first target is the priest. Maintain at least five yards of distance from the enemy and avoid being approached."

"Understood." As soon as Ye Xiu finished speaking, Zhou Zekai quietly acknowledged. Then, another thunderclap completely drowned out their conversation.

Su Muqiu glanced at the route marked by Zhou Zekai on the minimap, and then at the positions of Yi Ye Zhi Qiu and Mu Yu Cheng Feng, and had no objections.

Suppressing his excitement and anticipation, he unfolded his dual pistols and charged toward the designated location.

"Alright, the match is now officially starting. After a brief discussion, both sides have begun to plan their tactics."

The US team adopted a standard cross formation, and adjusted their formation en route to the designated location.

Based on the current performance, the vanguard is Dominic's Battle Mage, the three players on the flanks are Matthew's Priest, Harrison's Ninja and Kim Tae-min's Judoka.

"The defensive position is Colton's elemental mage..." Pan Lin was fully focused on the game: "It seems they want to break through our tactical setup head-on. Kim Tae-min and Harrison on the flanks will provide support and control, helping Dominic to deal with our front line and directly break through our formation..."

“Yes, their lineup is very aggressive. Don’t forget, Dominic’s first-strike skill on his silver weapon is absolutely crucial; once unleashed, it will inevitably lead to a kill…” Li Yibo’s expression was serious. The fog of war shrouded the battle on this side, while on the other side, the fog in the Chinese team’s area slowly lifted: “Now, let’s give the God’s-eye view to our Chinese team…”

Just as we expected! Team Li's gun master and Team Zhou's gun king appeared as the advance scouts in this match. Both sides had excellent positioning. At this distance, the two sharpshooters were able to cooperate perfectly and temporarily form a coordinated attack and close-range combat formation.

The Yanyu team also tried to use this tactic last season, but Shu Kexin and Shu Keyi were just newcomers with obvious flaws and a lack of experience. Now, with the demonstration by these two top marksmen, we should be able to see the most complete version of this tactic!
As for the rear... Ye Shen's condition didn't seem to have fully recovered. He was just making a very routine journey. The distance between Vice Captain Zhang and Captain Su behind them wasn't too close. From a strategic perspective, the three of them were advancing in a triangular formation, leaving room for Captain Zhou and Captain Li to retreat and defend. It could be said that they could attack or defend at the same time.

However, judging from this perspective, the first formal exploratory contact chosen by both parties should be in… …

"Confrontational battle on the rock face..." Old Wei frowned. "It's a good thing for us. The first wave is mainly for probing..."

“But the initiative is in their hands.” Lin Jingyan hesitated for a moment: “This kind of proactive probing doesn’t seem like Ye Xiu’s style…”

"It seems that Ye Xiu is not in very good condition..." Lu Liang sighed. Although Ye Xiu is the Glory God of China, this god is not a real god after all. His age and the exhaustion from the first game have made him not fully recovered.

This tactic is designed to allow the two sharpshooters to wear down the opponent to some extent...

Soldiers make dangerous moves.

"As expected, we can already see the enemy's position," "Li Wen" said. "The contact point they chose is undoubtedly the cliff face..."

This formation is clearly designed to counter Lord Grim. Although Lord Grim is not currently in the battle lineup, this formation can eliminate Lord Grim and then take out the others. The opponent has obviously decided to continue using the previous tactics to fight the enemy.

if it is like this……

"We located the other party, there was only one, but we couldn't see who it was." Zhou Zekai unusually spoke in a long sentence: "Above the stone wall..."

“Xiao Zhou, stop for a moment.” “Li Wen” said, “The other side has set up an ambush, so someone will definitely drive the prey that is about to enter the ambush. There should be their hunters around…”

Although somewhat puzzled by how "Li Wen" addressed him, now was not the time to dwell on such thoughts: "What should I do?"

Since the distance from the rear tactical positions was too great, command of the front lines naturally fell to those with tactical qualifications, and no one else had any objections to this...

"How about... we switch from supporting attrition to focusing on offense?" Li Wen suggested, a hint of malice in his eyes. "It's better to keep the initiative in our hands..."

“There are five of them. The one who shows up is definitely not a ninja, nor should it be Dominic. The most likely candidate is a judoka or an elemental mage. Based on their speed, if they appear here, the entire opposing team should be lying in ambush over there,” Zhang Xinjie calmly analyzed. “Are you confident?”

"Are you confident of taking them down, or is there something else?" Li Wen asked with a smile, reloading his weapons, Dawn and Nightfall.

Zhang Xinjie was silent for a moment: "Take out at least one of them and get out unscathed."

……

"I saw two of their sharpshooters. One, Yi Qiang Chuan Yun, is about to enter their attack range. I didn't see the other one; he's rather slippery. But I heard four gunshots; he must have been outside and hadn't come in." Harrison, who was lying in wait, accurately reported everything he could see.

"That battle mage isn't in good shape," Kim Tae-min said instinctively. "We're still in our half of the map, so the fact that they arrived so quickly means there's still a considerable distance between us and the rear..."

As he spoke, Kim Tae-min abruptly shut his mouth. Dominic was in charge of the tactics for this match, and his current actions might be criticized by Dominic...

"Take them down first." Unexpectedly, Dominic didn't reprimand him. As soon as Kim Tae-min finished speaking, Dominic gave the order: "Colton, are you confident you can take control of them first?"

“They’re carefully maintaining their position.” Colton’s voice was soft, but the chill in it didn’t diminish with the volume: “Wait for the lightning to strike, and once I’ve blocked their backs so they can’t retreat and are closing in on me, I’m seventy percent sure I can take control of one of them.”

“No need to wait around. Use the lightning penetration to simulate the attack. Harrison will provide you with the timing for the subsequent attack.” Dominic took a deep breath: “Kim Taemin, move to the back and block them, go around them for a while.”

Following the wolf king's command, the wolf pack began to disperse, each searching for its most suitable hunting ground. They greedily eyed the prey ahead, each wanting to be the first to snatch a bite of flesh in this hunt.

The two antelopes, caught in the ambush, seemed completely unaware, searching for food in this beautiful, grassy area.

"This...this is bad!" Although he didn't understand Glory, Ye Qiu could still read the minimap. On the minimap, five red dots had already subtly surrounded the two blue dots above, clearly indicating that they were about to be ambushed.

Ye's father glanced at his youngest son and said, "Stupid."

"Right? That's what Dad thinks too... Huh? Stupid? Me?" Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment, looking at his father in disbelief, and pointed at himself.

“They are very mobile,” Ye’s father said. “They can run very fast, and they dug in without any restraint, which is obvious…”

Ye Qiu stared wide-eyed at his old man in disbelief. "No, Dad, how can you speak so eloquently? Is this reasonable? This seems a bit illogical, doesn't it?"

……

Audience seats

"Don't be nervous, Xiao Lu." Wu Xuefeng patted Wu Xiao Lu's head to calm her down. After all, his little darling had been gripping his shoulder so tightly it hurt. Seeing his little darling looking at him blankly, Wu Xuefeng quickly explained in a low voice, "Your little Wen brother and that Zhou Zekai brother were probably doing it on purpose..."

"Intentional?" Tao Xuan subconsciously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Hearing what Lao Wu said, he quickly looked at Lao Wu and asked, "What do you mean?"

"If nothing unexpected happens..." Wu Xuefeng smiled.

Next, the two extremes should reverse.

The roles of prey and hunter have reversed, the roles of attacker and attacker have reversed, and even...

The encirclement on the field was almost perfect. Without any warning, a white light appeared on the ground behind them, a sign that lightning was about to strike.

Li Wen's lips curled slightly: "Watch out, it's coming..."

Before the words had even finished, without any warning, a black figure suddenly appeared above the cliff, drawing a silver-white blade from his hand.

"It's a ninja! It's Harrison's ninja! Why is he in this direction?!" Pan Lin exclaimed in disbelief, his eyes wide.

"They must have used the stealth technique to walk up the cliff and then immediately released the Earth Core Decapitation Technique! There's an ambush above, covering the escape route to the right, and there's lightning behind us... We can only go left!" Li Yibo subconsciously clenched his fist: "But... this is obviously..."

It's a trap! Don't go left!
