Chapter 291.1: Match Point

Chen Feng shook hands with Y1’s coach and stepped down from the stage. He sat down on the coach’s bench, then turned to ask Xiang Liu, “Who was it that called before the game?” Q q4Bw

Xiang Liu froze.

At the end of the day, Chen Feng had been with Lu Feng for many years. By this point, although he wasn’t as sensitive as Wei Xiao, he’d still noticed that something was up.

“President Qing.” Xiang Liu whispered.

He could see the call records. For some important phone calls, he was even responsible for keeping recordings for Lu Feng. MFoXfC

Chen Feng’s heart sank when he heard these two words.

Others might not know about Qing Lei, but how could he not be aware?

Although Lu Feng never spoke about his family affairs with anyone, he’d gotten along with the other party for so many years that even just a few words were enough for Chen Feng to get a glimpse of the whole picture.

Let alone, he knew very well how Close’s shoulder injury had come about.

Chen Feng looked at Lu Feng, who was still calm and composed up on stage, his heart flipping upside down in turmoil.

Tang Chen was usually carefree and casual, but he was very meticulous when things came up. He turned to look at him and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Lights flashed, and cold sweat broke out on Chen Feng’s forehead.

Chen Feng shook his head. JP8EOx

Tang Chen comforted him. “It’s okay, this is only the second match.”

He thought that Chen Feng was nervous because they’d lost the battle of freedom.

Chen Feng felt as though something was stuck in his throat. He wanted to say it out loud, but he didn’t dare. Or perhaps he didn’t know how to say it.

Tang Chen suddenly shouted, “Chen Feng!” t9rdiN

This low shout pulled Chen Feng out from the icy cold lake in his mind. He took a deep breath and calmed his heartbeat.

Tang Chen continued, “If you continue on like this, I’ll take over the BP for the next match.”

This was impossible. They could only report one person as the head coach prior to the game, and it was impossible to replace Chen Feng on the spot even if he fell seriously ill.

Tang Chen’s words were just a reminder to Chen Feng that he was the sixth person in FTW. He couldn’t afford to mess up no matter what happened. JgE u3

Chen Feng snapped out of it and explained hoarsely, “Close isn’t in the right state.”

Tang Chen froze.

Chen Feng said quietly, “I don’t know what Qing Lei said to him, but it definitely wasn’t anything good.”

Based on the timing of the call, it had definitely been a deliberate attempt to mess with Close’s mentality––Chen Feng didn’t care that he was using the most malicious possibility when speculating about that particular person. 5AInrU

Tang Chen also knew a little about the situation. A chill went down his back, but he steadied himself and said, “Don’t panic.”

Over the past six months, there had been more holding up this team than just a single player with an injured shoulder.

Wei Xiao, Ning Zhehan, Yue Wenle,and Bai Cai all stood beside Close, supporting the sacred twin swords that represented victory in FTW!

He was able to comfort Chen Feng. 0uqch8

Tang Chen was also staring at the competition arena, his gaze falling on Lu Feng. “He’ll be fine.”

Chen Feng looked over and nodded. “Mm.”

They would be fine. Close hadn’t made any mistakes in the previous match, either.

FTW hadn’t lost to Y1 because of the top lane, nor was it due to any single person’s mistake. It was just that their line-up had been targeted and they hadn’t been able to overcome that restraint. QRbCg ℞ÁꞐȫ₿Ěṣ

Even if Close wasn’t in the right state, he’d still done his best.

The second match began.

The hearts and minds of everyone present was focused on the canyon.

This was a very standard match, with double blood talents against double berserker. There were two person teams in the bottom lane, and both sides tested each other back and forth in the middle lane. Z8LmAN

In this match, Wei Xiao didn’t wander around trying to set fires anymore. Instead, he focused on the middle and top lanes, taking out FTW’s powerful top-jungler combination and making it clear that he wanted to compete with Y1 on the top lane.

Yan Jiang didn’t go to the top lane. He stayed in the bottom lane to accompany his own ADC the whole time, and Bai Cai also guarded the bottom lane to protect the gold hunter who was clumsy in the early stages and powerful later on.

In the middle lane, Little Ning was using the spirit mage while Quas took the utility-based ice mage.

Logically speaking, a spirit mage could easily kill the ice mage with a few moves. t0XuMs

Unfortunately, Quas knew what he was doing when he dared to take the ice mage. He didn’t even try to fight against the spirit mage directly at all. All four of his skills were control skills, and he targeted the places where the spirit mage would land. He might not be able to kill the other party, but he could definitely disgust him to death.

The middle and bottom lanes as well as the jungle zone were relatively peaceful.

Viewers in the live broadcast room were anxious, though. “It should be fine, right? FTW’s double blood combo is really good at fighting!”

“Right, right, right! As long as the great and little demon kings tear apart Y1’s top lane, they’ll be able to win this match.” NJbTwM

“Y1’s top-jungler combo might not be famous, but they really aren’t weak.”

When it came to tearing apart the top lane…

It had to be said that Y1’s top-jungler combo had actually beaten Yuan Ze and Gary last year.

Even without mentioning God Hai, who could use thieves to perfection; Dxrus was low-key and had a gentle personality, but judging from his stubborn stance on the top lane, he wasn’t being suppressed by Close at all. Tgbzdo

Everyone soon discovered a fatal problem.

The great and little demon kings’ double blood talent combination was very strong and their coordination was also very good. Their grasp of the rhythm of the game was very accurate…

But they just weren’t able to crush Y1’s berserker combo.

Slowly, as the battle progressed, the advantages and disadvantages of their talents began to emerge. SNU8xg

The blood warrior and blood thief were relatively weak in the mid to late stages of the game, and neither of them were team battle talents. On the other hand, between the berserker thief and berserker warrior, one of them had a strong control skill with which to start team battles, while the other could enter the fight and reap kills, providing much more room for operation within fights than the double blood combo.

In the first twenty five minutes of the match, neither side seemed to hold much of an advantage.

Commentator Brother Mouth was a little flustered, but he still spoke out loud, “Yue Wenle now has a full set of equipment. When the gold hunter is all set up, then FTW should be able to suppress the other side in a fight!”

Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun, who were seated beside him, didn’t try to continue the commentary. y7IXu9

It wasn’t that they wanted to ignore Brother Mouth, but rather that there was no way to continue.

They could see the situation all too clearly.

Yue Wenle’s gold hunter wasn’t bad. This quiet, potato chip loving Yue Wenle had some skills, but…

He was up against Yan Jiang’s medicine warlock. WVMsoz

The medicine warlock who hadn’t made much of a splash this whole time had been waiting for the second half of the match.

When Yue Wenle hadn’t yet risen to power, Y1 waited and nibbled away at their opponent; once Yue Wenle fully powered up and FTW started to rely on the gold hunter, it was time for the bell of defeat to ring for them.

But with FTW’s chosen line-up, they had no choice but to rely on the gold hunter in the later stages of the match.

The blood thief and blood warrior were gradually falling behind in strength, and it was difficult for the spirit mage to inflict poke damage. The gold hunter had to hold up the game with the holy priest’s protection. oAP5ZV

And Yue Wenle did indeed rise up to the occasion. He took down three kills in the bottom jungle zone and helped FTW regain the initiative.

The audience finally burst into cheers, expecting FTW to pull even the score. They looked forward to ending the second match with a score of 1:1.

Unfortunately, in the final group battle, the medicine warlock cut into their back row and used the heartbeat play which had crushed countless powerful c-positions to get right up into Yue Wenle’s face.

Not just Yue Wenle, but even Bai Cai’s entire body was covered in goosebumps. “I’ll protect you, I’m here to protect you!” cM0r52

The holy priest cast all of his healing spells on the gold hunter, but they were still no match against the medicine warlock who had remained dormant for the entire match, just waiting for the opportunity to spring into action at this moment.

System Announcement––

Y1.Yan killed FTW.Le.

When the screen went dark, everyone’s heart went cold. dLT7oJ

Close stepped forward and sent Yan Jiang away with a knife, but he couldn’t resist the remaining four Y1 players who charged at him crazily.

Bai Cai had used up all his skills and FTW was now missing a core DPS player. Even if they had resurrection armor and invincibility, it was still useless.

Their team was wiped out and their crystal exploded.

Defeat! VXPbwv

FTW lost another game.

The score that shone at the top of the stage changed slowly, but it had a heavy impact.

2:0.

Y1 had reached match point first. x2cbBK

The venue, which was filled with tens of thousands of people, fell silent. Only a small group of Y1 fans who’d come from afar burst out in cheers.

The China competition zone was hosting the games, and 99% of the audience were FTW supporters.

However, at this moment, in their own local arena, in their own home court, they’d lost so badly.

Some girls cried out loud, while some boys had reddened eyes. There were even quite a few adults who were still wearing their professional suits and had come to watch after work who clenched their fists. uQzBEY

In over a decade of Glory, this was the first time the China competition zone had been so close to the peak.

They were even closer than they’d been three years ago, and even more eager to win than three years ago.

The cheers of the 50,000 people at the venue were enough to make a statement about how much the China competition zone, which had been experiencing a downturn, needed this championship.

“Come on!” cXKkGj

It wasn’t clear who first started shouting loudly.

But soon, cheers filled the venue, each one louder than the previous, each wave of shouts bigger than the last. The shouts were loud, but not sharp.

They were like condensed waves of sound, holding the inclusiveness of the ocean and providing the most gentle comfort to the players on the stage who were striving for victory.

Come on! CfkSn

Go, FTW!

The curses in the live broadcast disappeared and were replaced with densely packed cheers.

The audience couldn’t bear to criticize them harshly, and couldn’t bear to blame them.

They’d already done their best. Even though they wanted them to do even better. m4URuO

They hadn’t held back at all.

The players who were encased within soundproof rooms and wore soundproof headphones had already started the third round of BP.

After losing two matches, every match from now onwards could be the final battle!
