Chapter 1218: Continue Listening To Heaven’s Will
“Hahaha!”
After the battle, Ming Du’s mute state was unlocked and he waved to the audience proudly while walking down the arena after a loud laugh.
After returning to the team, Ming Du exclaimed, “Look, this is what they call beating someone at their own game. That silly b*tch really thought that she was attractive! Haha.”
After hearing Ming Du out, they finally knew what he was up to just now.
Logically, Zhuge Small Fish was still a professional player by nature and had a significant advantage in skills compared to Ming Du though Ming Du was not weak either. Ming Du would not have been able to guarantee a victory over Zhuge Small Fish.
Hence, Ming Du went up the arena, showed his weakness on purpose and let Zhuge Small Fish think that her Honey Trap worked. Then, he sneaked an attack when Zhuge Small Fish let her guard down.
It was difficult for Zhuge Small Fish as well. If they had really fought with pure skills, she would not have lost. However, she got misguided by her cleverness and landed herself in this miserable situation.
“Impressive! Impressive!”
Quan Zhen Sect liked to mistake scheming as wisdom. After knowing what Ming Du was doing, all of them raised their thumbs up.
Meanwhile, Boundless Ocean started to prove himself right to his teammates again.
However, his teammates did not believe what he said at all and reb.u.t.ted, “We know all the values, but didn’t that fella get muted? How did he still cast spells?”
“This…” Boundless Ocean spoke awkwardly, “Not sure about that either, maybe it has something to do with the weird hand sign he did. Anyway, we can’t underestimate this guy’s abilities.”
…
Morale was a very magical thing.
Even in the world of online gaming which depended largely on attributes, morale directly affected the combat ability.
In actual fact, Dark Moon Squad was still considered a professional team no matter what. Putting other irrelevant things aside, they had been trained professionally in terms of their mentality and it was even more impossible for their morale to be affected by a few failures.
However, Dark Moon Squad’s defeat in three matches was really out of the world. Their team leader was killed instantly in the first match; their teammate got tortured to death in the second match; their teammate dug her own grave in the third match.
After losing so unexpectedly, Dark Moon Squad’s morale fell to rock bottom even if they were professionals.
Dark Moon Squad was like a shocked rabbit and was too afraid that their opponent would play tricks on them. Hence, the last two players of the last two matches only dared to stay put in a corner and did not dare to fight back.
In the end, the battle ended with a miserable result of 0:5.
There was a saying that goes “Only bad news travel far”. The news of a professional team who went ahead to challenge an amateur team but instead got stripped from head to toe would become a significant event to be remembered for a very long time.
Such a “glorious” event would not be able to escape being repeated by players everywhere.
A few days ago, the catchphrase among the players was still “Don’t do things like Quan Zhen Sect”, but after what just happened, the common catchphrase became “Don’t be like Dark Moon Squad.”
In the resting area, Dark Moon Squad’s expressions turned black and these results were really unexpected to them.
A team like theirs who were backed up financially by a company had to do everything by contract.
A move like challenging Quan Zhen Sect was something that was private and not written on the contract.
If they won, the investor might still give them some monetary rewards, but if they lost, they had to take responsibility for themselves. To result in an overall decline in team results due to individual actions being banned might result in an overall decrease in pay.
“What do we do now, leader?” All the players from Dark Moon Squad gathered and focused on Deathly Dark Moon.
After all, this idea was brought up by Deathly Dark Moon and he could not expect everyone else to bear the responsibility.
Though Deathly Dark Moon liked to do things on impulse, he knew how to think when he was calm.
After thinking for a bit, Deathly Dark Moon spoke in a low voice, “Did you guys realise that there was a vast difference in strengths of the players from Team A Murder Of Crows?”
“Now that you say it, it really seemed so.”
After hearing what Deathly Dark Moon said, everyone’s eyes sparkled as if they thought of something.
He was right! Judging from the last battle, the first two players up were definitely way stronger than the ones after.
Ignoring that Magician who won by playing tricks, they might not have lost the last two rounds if not for the fact that they focused too much on defence.
In a professional team, it was normal to have a difference in skill among team players. However, everyone’s ability was more or less similar for them to make it into the same team. Even so, the huge skill difference in Quan Zhen Sect was very rarely seen.
After realising this, Deathly Dark Moon confirmed, “Hence, I think they only have two players who were very skillful and the rest are just normal! The two rounds indeed defeated our morale, but they were the only two good ones they had.”
“You are right, captain!”
After hearing that, everyone else started thinking and felt that Deathly Dark Moon’s words made sense.
Deathly Dark Moon took this chance and added, “The victory for the next two rounds should be within our grasp. Are you guys confident?”
“Yes!” Their morale was raised.
We got to admit that Deathly Dark Moon had fairly good speaking skills for bringing the whole team’s morale up with just a short speech.
In Quan Zhen Sect’s resting area, those who won the first half were in a good mood. It felt good to be able to crush their opponents without playing any tricks.
w.a.n.g Yu poked Fearless with all smiles and said, “How do we go about for the second half, Fearless? Same as the first?”
“No!” Fearless replied, “Same logic, leave it up to heaven’s will.”
“Again?” everybody interrupted.
Ever since they partic.i.p.ated in the professional tournaments, Fearless had always said the same thing for the second half.
Fearless replied with confusion, “What else can I do? Do you think we are still fighting those stupid idiots like the teams we fought at the start?”
Indeed, Quan Zhen Sect’s past opponents were all amateur players and their opponent now was professional. w.a.n.g Yu had always said, “If hard work pays off, why do geniuses exist?” This phrase fit the scenario Quan Zhen Sect was in perfectly.
Regardless of how talented the Quan Zhen Sect was, it was natural for some of those players who had spent so much time and energy training as professional players to be stronger than them.
The selection for the second half was randomised.
If w.a.n.g Yu or Evil Rampage got chosen for the first match of this half, their second half’s victory would be more or less secured. If these two were not picked randomly, then the results would be very obvious too.
Leaving it up to heaven’s will was very appropriate.
