The Failed Knight of Full-Time Master

【Transition Chapter】

After confirming their entry into the finals, all members of the Thunder team have entered a state of preparation.

However, the major media outlets obviously do not intend to let go of the Thunder team, which is at the peak of its popularity due to its entry into the finals.

Therefore, in the past few days, a considerable number of reporters are preparing to enter the Thunder team to seek interviews.

If it were just that, it would be fine. After all, although these people are annoying, at least they are doing the interview properly and requesting it.

And those third-rate tabloids are the most difficult to deal with.

There were even quite a few paparazzi who tried to find Thunder players for interviews by disguising themselves as Thunder team staff and entering the team.

To this end, Lin Xia and Chen Xi temporarily hired a large number of security personnel, and for the Thunder staff, fingerprint recognition was directly adopted to allow them to enter the team base.

"It's crazy."

Dai Yanqi glanced at the forum, then looked at the reporters who were stopped outside by the staff and said.

To be honest, if it were Dai Yanqi who had just joined the Thunder Team two years ago, she would never have thought that the Thunder Team would have such a high-profile day.

"Because this is the first time that the Thunder team has entered the finals, before this, there were not many official media partners of the Thunder, and most of them were media that interviewed the Thunder. Now that the Thunder's status has risen, these media also hope to become Thunder's partners. That's why so many people are blocking the door of our team."

An Ning said.

An Ning is quite knowledgeable in this regard.

After all, the Yanyu Team back then was far superior to other professional teams in this regard.

As An Ning, who is nominally the deputy captain of Yanyu but is actually the captain of the team that is very sad about everything, she has also learned a lot from these things.

"That's it."

Dai Yanqi nodded.

"Okay, don't pay attention to these, just focus on the game."

At this time, Xiao Shiqin also stood up.

"The data analyst has just given me the analysis data of Team Happy's previous matches. Xiao An, Yun Xiu, the two of you help me sort it out."

Xiao Shiqin said to An Ning and Chu Yunxiu.

"it is good."

After hearing what Xiao Shiqin said, An Ning and Chu Yunxiu also stood up and walked to Xiao Shiqin's side.

As the captain, the two positions on Xiao Shiqin's left and right were left empty to store the materials Xiao Shiqin had sorted out.

But even though no one was sitting there, the computers were still retained.

That is for situations like today.

So, An Ning and Chu Yunxiu opened Xiao Shiqin's computer one on each side and began to organize the information about the Xingxin team.

There was one day left until the first round of the finals.

Because the first round was held at Xingxin's home court, the Thunder Team had already arrived in H City at this time.

And today is also the day for pre-match interviews.

The pre-match interviews for the finals are naturally different from those for the regular season.

It was more like an official press conference than a pre-match interview.

The Thunder and Happy teams were also asked a lot of questions today.

After the interview, Lei Ting and his teammates walked out of Xingxin’s stadium.

At the door, the Thunder players met Ye Xiu who was waiting outside.

"Why are you here?"

An Ning looked at Ye Xiu and asked.

"Come out and smoke."

Ye Xiu shook the cigarette in his hand and said.

"After all, we are planning to hold a press conference. There are quite a few people who don't smoke, so we can finish smoking here before going back."

Ye Xiu said.

"Can't you just go back to your base and smoke again?"

Chu Yunxiu rolled her eyes.

"Give me one!"

Chu Yunxiu looked at the cigarette in Ye Xiu's hand and asked proactively.

"Heh, it seems An Ning is keeping a close eye on you."

Ye Xiu said this and glanced at An Ning beside Chu Yunxiu.

Seeing that An Ning had no intention of stopping him, he took out a cigarette box from his pocket.

He tapped the cigarette skillfully and handed Chu Yunxiu a cigarette.

"Then you guys can chat here. I'll take them back first."

After seeing Chu Yunxiu skillfully lighting a cigarette and starting to smoke, Xiao Shiqin also spoke.

"Okay, you go back first."

An Ning said to Xiao Shiqin.

So Xiao Shiqin took the Thunder players back to the hotel to rest.

After Xiao Shiqin and his companions disappeared around the corner, Ye Xiu threw the cigarette butt into the trash can nearby.

Originally, when An Ning thought that Ye Xiu would return to Xingxin's base, Ye Xiu took out the cigarette box from his pocket again and lit another cigarette for himself.

“Come to think of it, the last time you and Yunxiu made it to the finals was when you were at Tiny Herb.”

Ye Xiu took a puff of his cigarette and then looked at An Ning.

"Yeah, we almost lost to the Tiny Herb team."

An Ning nodded.

The match between the Misty Rain Team and the Tiny Herb Team also lasted for a long time.

But in the end, the tactics adopted by both sides were similar, but because their treatment was not as fast as the opponent's reaction, the Yanyu Team missed the first championship in team history.

And...this may be the only chance in the team's history to win the championship.

"Then it looks like you're going to make it to the finals twice but not make it."

Ye Xiu said with a smile.

"It's still unclear who will win or lose. You are all a bunch of old guys."

Chu Yunxiu said with a hint of disdain.

Among the current main players of Team Xingxin, only Fang Rui is relatively young.

Sun Zheping and Zhao Yang are both players from the third season, while Wei Chen and Ye Xiu are both players from the early stages of the game.

"Who said that? We have powerful newcomers. Tang Rou, Baozi, Yifan, Mofan and the others are all newcomers."

Ye Xiu immediately retorted.

“Oh, so many new people.”

There was something meaningful in Chu Yunxiu's tone.

"Then...when it comes to the finals, you can put them up there too?"

Chu Yunxiu looked at Ye Xiu provocatively and said.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

After hearing Chu Yunxiu's words, Ye Xiu also coughed twice.

Although Team Happy does have a lot of new players, and the quality of these new players is indeed good, but if they are to be sent to the finals...

That's still a bit too arrogant.

"If you don't dare, why are you saying these things?"

Chu Yunxiu rolled her eyes and said.

"Stop talking about this."

Ye Xiu quickly changed his tone.

"Tell me the truth, does your pastor really not want to sell it?"

Ye Xiu also asked.

"Of course not, what are you thinking about!" An Ning immediately retorted.

To be honest, among the future second-generation players of the Thunder Team, the one with the most potential is Qin Jingyin.

Even Dai Yanqi might be inferior to Qin Jingyin.

It can be said that after An Ning, Xiao Shiqin and Chu Yunxiu retire, if the Thunder Team wants to rebuild, it will naturally revolve around Qin Jingyin and Chu Yunxiu.

Therefore, An Ning would naturally reject Ye Xiu's proposal.

"Don't refuse so decisively."

Ye Xiu shook his head and said.

Although after he retired this season, the Xingxin team still had Fang Rui, Zhao Yang, Su Mucheng and others.

But without Ye Xiu, who can raise the team's bottom line, Team Xingxin's performance next season... is really hard to guarantee.

An Wenyi has great potential, but the playing habits and defects he developed before cannot be made up for in a short period of time.

That's why Ye Xiu focused his attention on Qin Jingyin of Thunder.

After all, looking at the priests in the league right now, the best one is undoubtedly Zhang Xinjie from Team Tyranny, but Zhang Xinjie... when Howling made the offer before, it also stated that it would be very difficult to get a reasonable price for Zhang Xinjie.

Most of the remaining veteran priest players are also important players of each team.

If it wasn't a price that I couldn't refuse, I wouldn't make a move.

If you want to buy it, you will undoubtedly have to bleed a lot.

Then, it’s the newcomer level, and Qin Jingyin is undoubtedly the only one to choose.

The fact that Ye Xiu was obsessed with her also shows Qin Jingyin's potential.

In Ye Xiu's opinion, if Qin Jingyin chose to transfer, it would definitely raise the bottom line of the Xingxin team.

In this way, even if Ye Xiu is missing next season, at least the Happy Team will have no problem maintaining its place in the playoffs.

"Besides, why would Xiao Qin join your team? To compete with you for a playoff spot next season? Is he going to fight for fourth place to secure eighth place?"

Chu Yunxiu also said this from the side.

And what Chu Yunxiu said does make sense.

The strength of the Xingxin team will definitely decline next season.

Even if Ye Xiu does not retire, with the change of versions next season, Sanren's advantages will become less and less.

In addition, Ye Xiu is getting older, and his condition will gradually decline like Han Wenqing.

As for the Thunder, after a season of running-in, there will be no personnel changes this season.

Therefore, compared to Happy, whose strength will decline, it would be better for them to stay in Thunder for both emotional and logical reasons.

"Oh, that's right."

Ye Xiu also understood this principle.

The foundation of the Xingxin team is still too weak.

There is basically no basic foundation, and youth training cannot keep up.

Therefore, once Ye Xiu and his group retreated, Xingxin would definitely fall into chaos for a period of time.

Moreover, the starting point of the Xingxin team is really too high.

If Happy doesn't win a good ranking next season, I'm afraid the public opinion...

Therefore, Ye Xiu was also a little worried.

Although Ye Xiu always appeared calm in front of outsiders, he was still troubled by this.

Maybe they even thought that if it really doesn't work out, they might as well just not retire.

Anyway, my father's view on e-sports has changed a lot because of the Asian Games and the World Invitational Championships.

"call……"

After taking the last puff of cigarette, Chu Yunxiu threw the cigarette butt into the trash can where Ye Xiu had been.

"We're leaving first. Good luck in tomorrow's game."

Chu Yunxiu said to Ye Xiu.

"it is good."

Ye Xiu nodded.

Then he threw away the cigarette butt.

But just when An Ning and Chu Yunxiu thought that Ye Xiu would leave, they found that Ye Xiu had already taken out his third cigarette.

"Smoke less."

Seeing Ye Xiu like this, Chu Yunxiu said helplessly.

……

The next day, the first game of the Glory Professional League Season 10 finals began.

The home stadium of Team Xingxin.

This home court was once the home court of the Excellent Era team.

And now, he has become a member of the Xingxin team.

Although the Jia Shi team has successfully won the championship of the secondary league through its performance in the secondary league, it has now returned to the professional league.

But judging from the official statement of Excellent Era, they have no intention of returning to their original home ground.

Xingxin's home base is very large, and the number of seats is ranked in the top three among all teams in the league.

As the final of the 10th season of the Glory Professional League, this game at Xingxin’s home stadium was also packed with people.

The entire home stadium was packed with people.

"Welcome to watch the first game of the Glory Pro League Season 10 Finals. I am the commentator for this game, Pan Lin."

"I am the commentator Li Yibo."

"I am Jiang Botao from the Samsara Team."

The selection of commentators for the finals actually gave the officials a bit of a headache.

As veterans in the Glory League commentary, Pan Lin and Li Yibo undoubtedly have a very high status.

However, the new commentator duo Lin Jingyan and Yu Yang, who debuted last season, also have considerable popularity because of Lin Jingyan.

Therefore, there are many calls for Lin Jingyan and Yu Yang to be the commentators.

But in the end, Honor officially chose Pan Lin and Li Yibo.

As for Lin Jingyan and Yu Yang, they participated in the finals as guests in the middle of the competition.

"Today's two teams are both entering the finals for the first time in their history. Team Happy is a fledgling team with a blank history, while Team Thunder had problems making it to the playoffs in previous seasons. I didn't expect that the two teams would meet in the finals this season."

Pan Lin said.

This does reflect the reality of this season.

Previously, teams that won the championship, such as Samsara, Tyranny, Blue Rain, and Vici Gaming, have all been eliminated in the quarterfinals or quarterfinals, while playoff regulars like Howling Void didn't even make it to the playoffs.

Therefore, many commentators said that this season should be the most competitive one in the Glory Professional League in all these years.

"Okay, the first match of the two teams is ready. Now let's see who will be the first players of both teams?"

Li Yibo said.

After Li Yibo finished speaking, the first player from Team Xingxin had already stood up.

As this person appeared in the camera, the audience below burst into enthusiastic cheers.

Because this person is Ye Xiu.

"As expected, Team Happy still chose to send Ye Xiu out first in this competition!"

Pan Lin was also a little excited.

If Ye Xiu can also take down one player in this match, then Ye Xiu will continue to create the miracle of KDA greater than 1 in the singles match!
This is more than just thirty-seven consecutive wins in individual competitions.

In these rounds of the playoffs, Ye Xiu was always the first to appear and defeated at least one opponent.

As for facing the Thunder, a player as powerful as Ye Xiu would probably be unbeatable by anyone on the Thunder side.

"Sure enough, the first match is still Ye Xiu."

Xiao Shiqin saw Ye Xiu on the big screen and said. (End of this chapter)
