Full-time master's opening dragon rises!

"The game is over!!!"

Li Yibo shouted, announcing the end of the game.

After falling behind by a score of 3:5 in the singles match, the entire Tiny Herb team was a little distracted in the team match. On the other hand, the Baihua team members were in high morale at the moment, so not long after the team match started, the Baihua team members used their fiery The feel quickly took over the dominant position on the court.

Then, it was one-sided and suppressive, and the balance of victory completely tilted towards Baihua.

Although at the last moment of the game, Gao Yingjie stepped forward and played a brilliant performance, the distant water could not save the near fire, and eventually fell to Chu Yunxiu's magic bombing.

In the team competition, Baihua wins! Score 6:4!

"Tiny Herb was not able to turn the tide in the team competition, even though their players tried their best to win."

"The final score is 11:7. Baihua won an away victory. There is no doubt that an away victory is precious." Xiao Yu'er continued, "But Tiny Herb does not need to be discouraged. After all, they still have There is a second round, and as long as we can perform well in the second round and inflict heavy damage on Baihua, we can drag the game into overtime."

"Okay, today's game has come to an end, let's see you in the next round!!!" Li Yibo said.

After the words fell, the lights of Tiny Herb's home court slowly dimmed, and the spectators in the auditorium also left the stage. However, the expressions on the faces of these spectators were divided into two parts. One part was smiling. These were obviously fans of Baihua. . The other group are fans of the Tiny Herb family. Without exception, the faces of these people are filled with confusion and sadness...

Losing at home, although it is just one game, the game is not over yet, there is another second leg to fight for.

But... fans of any club know very well that Baihua's control over their home court is too strong! It was so strong that everyone thought even a draw there was unrealistic.

But there is no way, the first round of the game is over, and Tiny Herb fans can only place their hope in the following second round.

Winning the next round and dragging the game into the final overtime is the only hope and the last hope.

……

Post-match interview.

"First of all, congratulations to Baihua for winning the first round of the semi-finals. Secondly, I would like to ask Team Yi, in the single match, player Zheng Chengfeng's Knight Tide showed a different side than before, that is, the battle ax form. This form He has never shown it in previous games. Is this your secret weapon?" a reporter wearing glasses asked.

"Haha." Yi Tianming smiled, "You have already revealed the secret weapon, can this still be called a secret weapon?"

"Ah haha, yes." The reporter smiled and scratched his head.

Yi Tianming didn't hide it. After all, this tactic had already been used. Even if he concealed it now, it would be difficult to use it again in the final game, so he briefly talked about the origin of the tomahawk. .

Yi Tianming: "..." (one hundred words omitted)

After listening to Yi Tianming's explanation, the reporter suddenly realized:

"Wow! No wonder player Zheng Chengfeng performed so well on the court today. It turns out that he got it by playing against you."

Yi Tianming smiled and said, "Without his own hard practice, he wouldn't have achieved such results. I'm just a sparring partner."

After hearing these words, all the reporters silently gave him a thumbs up in their hearts. Such a captain is really too low-key. He personally goes off the field to accompany his teammates to practice. With such high achievements, there is no trace of captaincy. The shelf is really admirable! !

Afterwards, the Baihua players answered several questions one after another, and the post-game interview belonging to Baihua ended.

The Baihua players walked into the player tunnel and prepared to leave.

"Ahem... Next, I would like to invite members of the Tiny Herb team to be interviewed." the chief press officer began.

After the words fell, the Tiny Herb team members, who looked tired, took their seats one by one.

The scene instantly became depressing, and everyone could see that the Tiny Herb team members were not in a good mood at the moment.

All the reporters "mourned" in their hearts for Tiny Herb.

However, for this group of experienced reporters, it is commonplace to rub salt into other people's wounds.

Soon, a reporter stood up to ask questions, followed by a second, then a third, and then one after another people raised their hands to ask questions.

The chief information officer picked out one of them with sharp eyes.

"Team Wang, what do you think of the performance of the players today?" the reporter asked.

"Oops." Wang Jiexi said two words very calmly.

Hearing this, the other Tiny Herb team members lowered their heads. In fact, they all knew in their hearts that their performance today was not very good. Except for Gao Yingjie, who had outstanding performances in both the solo and team competitions, the rest At best, the players' performance can only be said to be satisfactory.

Some can even be said to be disastrous performances, such as Liu Xiaobie and Xiao Yun who were defeated by Yi Tianming in the singles match.

At this time, Wang Jiexi spoke again:

"However, it would be too early to make a final decision now. We still have a second round to fight. I believe that my players and I can reverse the game later."

Wang Jiexi's voice was calm, but his words were deeply rooted in people's hearts. Even the reporters felt his courage and extreme desire for victory.

Wang Jiexi has always been like this. When the team encounters difficulties, he is always the first to stand up. It was before and it will be in the future!

After hearing these words, all the Tiny Herb team members also raised their heads and looked at their captain.

"Excuse me, Team Wang. In what aspect do you think Tiny Herb lost to its opponents in today's game?" Another reporter asked.

"The formation of single-player matches." Wang Jiexi thought for a moment and replied, "Baihua's arrangements for single-player matches are different from the past. There is no doubt that their arrangements are targeted and have indeed achieved their goals. Effect. But in the single match, we still deployed according to the usual lineup, so between the positive and negative, Baihua gained an advantage."

"So, what Team King means is that Tiny Herb will make major adjustments to the formation of the singles match in the next round?"

Wang Jiexi shook his head and said expressionlessly, "No comment."

Not getting an accurate reply, the reporter was not discouraged. After all, he already roughly knew the result when he asked this question. No one would take the initiative to reveal such tactical secrets.

Afterwards, the reporters asked several questions one after another, and Tiny Herb answered them one by one.

"Then today's press conference ends here. Thank you to both parties for their support." The chief information officer's voice fell and then left.

……

In the player tunnel.

Tiny Herb and the others moved forward silently. Unlike previous victories, they were unusually quiet today.

And this all comes from two words——

pressure.

Yes, it’s a lot of pressure! In the past, even if they lost three or four times in a row during the regular season, the Tiny Herb players would not feel the heavy pressure now. After all, the regular season is a long-distance race. Even if they lose in a short period of time, they can slowly catch up with the points. return.

But the playoffs are different. After losing the first round at home, and at such a critical juncture in the semifinals, anyone would feel the pressure doubled.

Gao Yingjie stood at the end of the team. He had not yet come out of the game, and he was still recalling the scenes of today's game in his mind.

"My performance today...is still not up to par, right?" Gao Yingjie sighed in his heart.

"If that skill was faster, maybe the situation would be different."

At this moment, a big hand patted his shoulder,

"Yingjie."

Gao Yingjie raised his head and saw that it was none other than his captain Wang Jiexi.

"Captain..." Gao Yingjie hesitated.

In fact, from a third perspective, Gao Yingjie's performance today can be said to be very good. He performed brilliantly in both the solo and team competitions. It can even be said that his performance today was a little better than Wang Jiexi's.

However, from Gao Yingjie's own inner perspective, he didn't think so. He compared himself with Wang Jiexi again and again, imagining that at a certain critical moment, like Wang Jiexi in the past, he could step forward and help the team turn the game around.

Gao Yingjie's thoughts could not escape Wang Jiexi's eyes. After all, everyone has gone through this stage.

What's more, Wang Jiexi watched his "loved disciple" grow up, and he understood him better than anyone else.

"Don't blame yourself too much. Your performance today has been very good." Wang Jiexi said. These were not words of comfort, but the truth.

"I..." Gao Yingjie wanted to say something, but nothing came out.

"One day, you will become the banner of Tiny Herb."

These words kept echoing in Gao Yingjie's mind. These words were what Wang Jiexi said to him.

But, when can it become?

The further he advanced in the professional league, the more Gao Yingjie felt that Wang Jiexi was too great, great enough to carry the entire Tiny Herb team on his own.

"Captain, I must be like you!" Looking at Wang Jiexi's slowly leaving figure, Gao Yingjie swore secretly in his heart.

……

the other side,

Xingxin narrowly won a victory with a score of 11:8.

Happy performed very well in the singles match, entering the team match with a 5:3 lead.

This scenario is the same as that of Baihua. After the single match, the morale of all members of Xingxin was high, and they wanted to end the team match with a hearty victory.

Unexpectedly, the people of Huangfeng seemed to have triggered some kind of buff in the team competition. Even when the score was behind, they were still not discouraged at all. Instead, they fought more and more fiercely, and even occupied a dominant position on the court. .

Royal Wind obviously made targeted arrangements before the game. They had two breakthrough points. One was Xingxin's famous shortcoming An Wenyi, and the other was the X factor of Baozi.

Today, Baozi suddenly became nervous during the team competition, which almost ruined Happy's good situation. Huangfeng used him as a breakthrough point to suppress Happy.

Fortunately, in the end, Ye Xiu, Su Mucheng, and Tang Rou worked together, and with the advantage of the home map, Xingxin won the team match without any danger.

Wei Chen, who performed well in the previous round, did not get a chance to play today. I don't know if it was because of his physical strength or because he was not included in Ye Xiu's tactical list.

……

"I'm talking about Baozi, your performance just now was too shocking, you know, you almost cheated the whole team." Wei Chen slapped Baozi with a face to face, and pointed out the mistakes Baozi made during the game without mercy.

"Hey...Old Wei, I will change in the future." Baozi scratched his head. Although he said so, who knows whether he will actually make changes? After all, Baozi's mind is harder to grasp than a woman's heart!

"Hey." Wei Chen shook his head, having nothing to say.

"Okay, Wei, you win, you win, there's no need to be so strict." Ye Xiu stood up to smooth things over at this time. Of course, he wasn't showing favoritism to Baozi. He definitely wanted to have a good chat with Baozi afterwards, like in today's game. If the mistake occurs again in subsequent games, it is very likely that Xingxin's dream of winning the championship will be ruined.

"That's all, I just hope that the team can be better, but since the captain has spoken, there is nothing to say." Wei Chen waved his hand, and then patted Baozi on the shoulder. The gesture between the men was as simple as that.

Naturally, Baozi wouldn't chew up Wei Chen's words just now. He was a little nervous, but he was not stupid. He knew that his performance today was not good, so being criticized was considered a light thing.

Among other teams, if they make major mistakes at a critical moment like the semifinals, they may not be qualified to participate in the second round.

"Okay, everyone, let's go back and prepare for the next round." Ye Xiu waved his hand, and the Xingxin players stepped into the team bus one by one.

……

The next day.

The Honor headlines have been renovated, and the top few are naturally about the semi-finals.

However, there is a piece of news that has nothing to do with the content of the competition, but it rushed to the top of the list with lightning speed.

Title: Samsara has made it clear that player Sun Xiang will not continue to play for the team next season.

……

Flowers Club.

“Big news, big news!!”

Song Xiao took the latest issue of Glory headlines and rushed to the break.

"What's the matter? What's all the fuss about." Tian Sen shrugged, stood up and stretched his muscles.

Everyone had just finished training in the morning and took a short break before getting ready for lunch. Song Xiao said he was thirsty and went out to buy a bottle of drink, but when he came back he became like this "crazy".

"Mars hit the earth?" Chu Yunxiu joked.

"No, no!" Song Xiao put his hands on his knees, breathing heavily. It looked like he was really running all the way. The newspaper in his hand was placed on the table.

"See for yourselves!"

Everyone's attention was instantly attracted. What content made Song Xiao, who had always been unstable, become even more unstable?

Until everyone saw the news about Sun Xiang on the Honor headlines.

"I go!!!"

All members of Baihua were stunned.
