The day-to-day training lasted for more than ten days. Shen Xiao and everyone completed the second round of duo dungeon cooperation. The progress of everyone far exceeded the initial expectations. Not only did Shen Xiao gradually adapt to the rhythm of cooperation, Even other people have made a qualitative leap in all aspects.It was just the latest internal news suddenly brought by Final that attracted everyone's attention.

"What?? Registration for the Player Contest started in September? Then when will the competition start?" Napoleon asked.

Final replied: "According to the news, the player competition will start after the November holiday, and the competition time is all scheduled for Saturday and Sunday."

"...Why is it suddenly ahead of time?" Jueming was also puzzled.

Final paused, and replied: "There is one more piece of news that is not certain..."

Napoleon couldn't help but rushed to ask: "What news??"

"After the end of the player competition, there will be the regional points competition of the professional league."

"This... is understandable. I want to finish the competition before the Chinese New Year."

"It's not that simple, is it?" Musha said suddenly.

Final let out a "huh", and then remained silent for a while before continuing: "The champion of this player contest has the privilege of advancing to the regional points competition of the professional league."

The whole YY was silent for a long time.

"What?! Can you advance??" Napoleon was the first to exclaim.

The others fell into brief contemplation, and after a while, Jue Ming tentatively asked, "Is it because of the president?"

Final replied: "It is possible."

Musha's voice was very calm: "The president formed a team to participate in the player competition. I believe this matter cannot be hidden, but within two or three months, the matter will only spread in a small area."

"You mean the professional circle?"

"Yes. Each team has a confidentiality agreement as a constraint, and some uncertain news will not be released at will. What's more, no team hopes that all the attention will be attracted by the president alone. As long as there is no If any definite evidence is exposed, this matter will at most become gossip in professional circles." Mu Sha's words stabilized everyone's mood a lot.

"Then... if the champion of the major competition can advance to the regional points competition, will you... participate?" Napoleon asked cautiously, "Jueming and I originally planned to hang out with the final boss if we couldn't make it to the team. If you want to participate, the two of us will definitely go.”

YY fell into silence, and Final suddenly said: "Only by winning the championship can there be any discussion. The news is not [-]% correct, so let's continue training."

The topic ended hastily, but in the subsequent training, everyone was somewhat absent-minded.Shen Xiao and Ling Yexi brushed the dungeon in silence until half an hour later when the two of them were wiped out for the first time. Ling Yexi manipulated Lucifer and stood at the door of the dungeon without moving. Shen Xiao also changed his perspective. The two characters in the game Face to face.

"Do you want to participate?" After a long time, Ling Yexi asked.

Shen Xiao didn't answer right away, and the atmosphere fell into silence again, but soon, Shen Xiao said: "Work is the main thing."

Ling Yexi asked again: "Do you want to participate?"

Shen Xiao still didn't answer, the two stalemate for a while, Lucifer in the game took a few steps forward. "Shen Xiao, I will always support your decision, you know that."

Shen Xiao remained silent, Ling Yexi passed him by operating the phone, and walked towards the wild monster: "Practice."

After the day's training ended, everyone was much more silent than before. Final, as usual, commented on the training results of several people, and said by the way: "The player competition adopts knockout rounds, that is to say, there is only one chance. This time the competition It will also be more intense than before, I believe you all understand."

Everyone was silent, Final's tone changed, and he became serious: "Maybe you still have many shortcomings, but you also have the most important thing on the field-don't forget your beliefs."

YY was quiet for a while, and Napoleon's voice sounded first: "Never give up!"

The atmosphere that had been stagnant for a long time finally changed. Although no one said it outright like Napoleon, everyone clenched their fists in their hearts.

The summary meeting ended soon, Shen Xiao stopped Final who was about to leave, and the two discussed the team battle.

"Do you need to increase the number of team battles before the eleventh?" Shen Xiao asked.

Final thought for a while: "It's not necessary."

"Well, I think so too. One more thing, Liu Guang's guild leader came to look for me a while ago."

"You want to join the team?"

"Ah."

"The idea is good, but it is still too risky for them to change the team style."

"Ah."

"You mentioned they wanted a friendly match?"

"Ah."

Final paused for a moment, and then continued: "It's not easy to make an appointment, our team is not worth playing practice matches."

"Then it becomes valuable before you meet the team."

A smile appeared on Final's face: "Then prove it with your strength. When it reaches that level, I will help."

"it is good."

After speaking, the two made small adjustments to the training content, and then went offline.

In the next period of time, everyone trained harder, and the "two-person copy" plan gradually expanded to the whole team. In addition to Shen Xiao, Ling Yexi also became the focus of attention.Regarding the matter of the player competition, no one mentioned it again, but the gradually tense atmosphere showed their attitudes towards each other.

The days passed day by day, and on September 12th, the official announcement was made: starting from September 15th, the official website opened the player competition registration system, and the registration deadline was October 12th, and the start date of the competition was October [-]th. [-].The competition awards are not fully disclosed, but there is only one item that has attracted everyone's attention - the champion of the competition will be eligible to participate in the professional league regional points competition in December.

As soon as the notice came out, an upsurge of discussion instantly ignited.

We all know that the player competition is a "training ground" for many teams' second-line players and substitute players. Since the championship will inevitably fall to the team guild, what difference does it make if there is no qualification for the professional league points competition?At the same time, each team took a silent attitude towards this notice, which made the onlookers even more confused.But there are also people with sharp minds who noticed the clues and posted a post on the forum.

In the post, "the appearance of Jiuluo", "the official announcement of the player competition" and "the team's reaction" were connected, and a logical thread appeared in front of everyone.

Since Jiuluo can become the moderator of the "Peak" section of Changfengpolang, he must be decent in terms of strength. Since he has such a moderator job and also participated in the live broadcast of the last professional league final, it means that he Did not join any team.

Assuming that Jiuluo doesn't plan to join a team when he returns to the online game this time, will he form his own team?For example, the other three people who are moderators with him, will they spontaneously form a team to participate in the player contest?If this assumption holds true, then it explains the new official announcement and the team's strange reaction.

After all, the purpose of the game is to make money. Jiuluo is playing "Apex" and participating in the player competition. This is a rather gimmicky topic. It can almost cause a sensation in the entire online game circle.Whether it is for the game party, or for fans and onlookers, it is a happy thing to hear and see.

As for the team, they need the support of the club, which is essentially a business operation model. This kind of investment is based on the popularity of the team. The appearance of Jiuluo will undoubtedly deprive them of the popularity they should have, so the team remains silent It is easy to understand, because the bigger the incident, the more attention the game and Jiuluo will receive.

This kind of speculation has undoubtedly won the support of most people. Although some people think that this move by the game side is unreasonable and is an insult to the sanctity of the e-sports circle, but this kind of remarks were quickly drowned out by the crazy cheers of fans. middle.

Who cares about the rationality of a once-in-a-century probability?

Discussions about Jiuluo kept popping up on the forum like crazy, and soon a group of black fans joined in, scolding Jiuluo for being ungrateful and betraying Lingyun, and some people called Shen Xiao a coward, but in fact they dare not fight against Haotian on an equal footing. More black fans sneered, thinking that Jiuluo might not even win the player contest.

In addition to the fight posts, the most frequent ones are speculations about Jiuluo teammates. The accounts of Napoleon and Jueming in the first district were brutally harassed. Although the friends around the two who knew the situation strictly kept their mouths shut, they still couldn’t stop the netizens. crazy move.Soon there was a message on the forum that "Napoleon, Jueming hasn't managed the guild for a long time, and he doesn't see anyone every day", which left a heavy mark on the accuracy of the guess.

The two Napoleon couldn't laugh or cry when they saw it, but they couldn't explain it face to face.

Immediately afterwards, Qi Le's ID "Le Le" in the forum was also miserably skinned. It's a pity that Qi Le has always been low-key and has no reputation in the circle. Except for Ling Yun's people who can think of it, other netizens can't guess this is who.

Without definite evidence, no matter how hot the Internet is, it will eventually calm down. The patience of netizens will never stop at speculation. When this topic expires, fewer and fewer people will mention it.In the meantime, Shen Xiao and others also quietly submitted the registration information - KFC luxury lunch guild No. [-] team will not be allowed to rename the team in the initial knockout rounds, and will only use "Guild name + No. [-]/No. [-]" participating teams".

The lineup of the team consisted of two assassins, two mages, one archer, and one priest. To be on the safe side, a trumpet from Final also signed up as a substitute, in order to deal with Ling Yexi's absence.

After signing up, the atmosphere in the team obviously changed again. Everyone trained harder. In addition, several people planned to use team battles to test their level during November.Although this was different from what Shen Xiao and Final had discussed in advance, the two still contacted the three teams and arranged the time.
