For Love of the Game

At 8 o'clock the next morning, everyone arrived in the training room.Usually they are black and white in the team, at least it takes 9 o'clock to start training, and they are still sleeping in the dormitory at this time.

But today everyone woke up so early and didn't feel tired at all. It's really fresh to train with other masters of the top eight teams, not to mention that Shen Huai told them that they will play a 2V2 match this afternoon.

Shen Huai said, "According to what I said yesterday, we will play 1V1 first to warm up. After an hour, everyone and their partners will practice 2V2 by themselves."

Everyone quickly logged into the game and sent PK applications to their opponents one after another.

Shen Huai was relieved to find that most of the people were in PK with the partner he formed yesterday.They are all the best players from each team. Needless to say, he can think of using the single-player arena to understand the characteristics of his partner's style of play, and lay the foundation for the subsequent practice of 2V2. This makes him feel that the burden on him is much lighter. .

However, there are also people who do not have a partner, such as Sun Yuan.

Originally, his profession didn't match well with the rest of the team, and he was unwilling to give support to Song Xueyang or Shen Huai, so he sat there alone.

Shen Huai glanced at his screen, walked forward without stopping, and saw that Xiao Zhang's chair was empty.

"Where's Xiao Zhang?"

Jin An said angrily, "He's asleep!"

Seeing the dark circles under Jin An's eyes, Shen Huai made a guess. He patted Jin An's shoulder comfortingly and returned to his seat.

The moment he sat down, the eyes of the group of people lit up. Just as Shen Huai clicked on the game interface, a PK application popped up on the screen, and then one by one, seven or eight popped up.

Si Qianjin turned around and called Shen Huai in a low voice, pointing to himself and making a mouth shape - I, choose me.

Luo Lie blocked his line of sight, "Brother Si, you are playing tricks, you can PK with whomever Yushen wants to PK."

Si Qianjin was not convinced, "How can this be considered cheating? It was the first PK application I sent to Yushen."

Jin An retorted, "Why are you so sure that you are the first?"

Tao Lele said aggrievedly, "I also sent a PK application soon, and you and Yushen have fought in the arena, and I haven't fought Yushen yet."

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Si Jin took a step back, "Then you come first, and I'll come back after you and Yushen finish fighting."

Shen Huai was a little helpless, "We only have one hour of training time, everyone, don't waste time waiting, it will be a long time in the future, you can find me to PK at any time after the training is over, today I will fight Captain Tao first It is a pity that I was not able to play when Chenxi and Fengyue faced each other in the group stage."

"OK then……"

Shen Huai agreed to Tao Lele's PK application. Just after loading the map, he found that the number of spectators at the top of the screen was 3, and it rose to 7 when the countdown ended in five seconds.He glanced to the side, Song Xueyang didn't watch the game from the game, but he turned the swivel chair around openly and looked directly at his screen.

Shen Huai sighed silently, he could understand that he achieved a lot in his first year as a professional player, and he was very mysterious before, everyone wanted to know more about him.It's just that one or two of you secretly came to watch the battle, do you really think I can't see it?

After the countdown ended, Tao Lele jumped onto the ring. He had always wanted to fight Shen Huai. After getting into the ring, he went straight to the enemy's birth point. Not long after, a black light flashed in his vision.

A pure black dragon hovered around the assassin, the dragon body seemed to be hidden in the gray-black cloud, which was unrecognizable, but the two fluttering dragon whiskers and a pair of eyes full of murderous aura were very real.That is the reward only players with the No.6 official career ranking in the S1 season can get, and the special effects of each profession are different.

Behind Tao Lele's berserker is a blue dragon sitting on the clouds, Guan He's swordsman is a water dragon that calls the wind and rain, and Song Xueyang's gunman is behind a golden dragon that shines like the dawn.And Shen Huai's assassin was a black dragon that seemed to fly up from the lower layers of hell.

The dragon is already so intimidating, but what makes people tremble even more is his name and title-Cang Yu, an officially certified member of the Maple Moon team in the City of Despair.

After the national competition, Shen Huai received the first professional ranking reward and official certification at the same time, so he changed the name of the original female account and joined the maple moon team guild.

At this time, he flew from a distance with such special effects, and his impact was even stronger than on the field.He dodged Tao Lele's justice hammer with a sudden stab, and cut behind the enemy in an instant.

Soul capture!

Marked for Death - Backstab - Blood Blade - Assassination - Dark Sword!

A set of combos is so dazzling that people dare not even blink their eyes.

The National Finals had only been over for a few days, yet Shen Huai still maintained his form on the field, with quick shots and precise timing.In comparison, Team Chenxi's match had long since ended. Tao Lele's state was obviously inferior to Shen Huai's. In addition, the Berserker lacked control and could not effectively restrain the Assassin. They were defeated in a short time.

Everyone praised.

"Okay Yushen, a set of combos is too 6, it's almost like killing anyone. Yushen hasn't played in the world championship yet, if players from other countries see it, won't they be scared?"

"Hahaha, so is Captain Tao. He looks thin and small, and he speaks softly. This is a completely different person on the field. A giant hammer teaches you to be a man. It's too deceptive!"

Tao Lele chuckled twice, it wasn't that he pretended on purpose, it's just that he would be timid when communicating with people, but when he manipulated the berserkers to rampage on the field, he seemed to forget everything and let go of everything. The nature is the same as returning to the original.

Shen Huai reminded, "Okay, let's continue training. The group that lost the match in the afternoon will have a show for everyone at dinner in the evening."

"Fuck!"

"I didn't say that before! If I knew this, I would have hugged your thigh tightly!"

"God Feather, you are too dark!"

Everyone was talking, and they also felt that the time was tight. Teams formed teams, PKs fought against each other. For a while, only the sound of typing on the keyboard was left in the training room.

When they practiced until 11 o'clock, Xiao Zhang walked in unsteadily.

He looked sleepy and yawned as he walked towards his seat.

He sat down and turned on the phone, neither saying hello to others nor explaining why he was late, as if he just went out to use the toilet as naturally as he could.While waiting to turn it on, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, and then there were two clicks from the lighter.

When Shen Huai turned his head, Xiao Zhang just took a puff of smoke and showed him a provocative smile from a distance.

Shen Huai walked over, didn't say anything about smoking, and explained the training tasks first.

Xiao Zhang flicked the cigarette ash, and then slowly exhaled a puff of smoke before asking, "Who is missing now without a partner?"

"Sun Yuan."

Just as Sun Yuan was thinking about what to do, he heard Xiao Zhang sigh inexplicably, "Then who are you with?"

Shen Huai said expressionlessly, "Song Xueyang."

Xiao Zhang laughed again, and leaned on the back of the chair with Erlang's legs crossed, "Isn't the purpose of letting everyone randomly form a partner just to see the possibility of 2V2 in different professional groups? Then what's the point of forming a team with Song Xueyang? "

The people who had finished the ring looked over silently, and some secretly took off their earphones. Luo Lie stared at Xiao Zhang even more closely, thinking that if he continued to speak rudely, he would go up and argue with him!

Shen Huai was silent for a moment, "You are right, what do you mean?"

Now everyone in the room was surprised, although Xiao Zhang's words were reasonable, but he clearly wanted to find fault, but Shen Huai didn't mean to get angry at all.

Shen Huai didn't intend to form a team with Song Xueyang at first, but everyone picked and picked and finally only four of them were left. It is better to form a team with Song Xueyang than to form a team with Xiao Zhang or Sun Yuan, right?

Xiao Zhang's smile froze for a moment, and soon he thought of a good idea, "Song Xueyang and I will team up, you and Sun Yuan."

Sun Yuan suppressed his anger and said, "Shen Xiao, you helped me make a decision before I said anything?"

Xiao Zhang didn't take him seriously at all, but said to Shen Huai, "I don't care who you team up with, I can always team up with Song Xueyang, right?"

Shen Huai looked at Song Xueyang, Song Xueyang immediately understood what he meant, and said with a smile, "Okay."

After hearing this, everyone felt a layer of cold sweat all over their bodies. Neither of these two people is a fuel-efficient lamp. Wouldn't they destroy the world if they were together?This twisted melon is the one that suffers the most.

Shen Huai returned to his seat and invited Sun Yuan to join the team, and soon received a reminder that the other party rejected your request. Shen Huai has always been too lazy to deal with this kind of person who can't even go down the stairs, so he didn't care about him. Practice it.

In the afternoon, each pair played a 2V2 match.

Sun Yuan was unwilling to form a team with Shen Huai in the end, and Shen Huai ignored him. His main task this afternoon was to observe the pros and cons of each pair's play, and screen out some combinations that could win the wild card competition. I don't have the energy to deal with him yet.

The first match was Tao Lele, Luo Lie VS Jia Yunge, and Si Qianjin. The opponents were specially selected by Shen Huai. The combination of Tao Lele and Luo Lie is characterized by fighting alone, similar to Fan Jingming and Shi Yi. However, Jia Yunge is a very difficult opponent to fight alone. Conversely, for Si Qianjin's fire method, professions such as Berserker and Assassin are relatively restrained.

When Si Qianjin heard his opponent's name, he felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy. Tao Lele and Luo Lie were particularly miserable throughout the match.Luo Lie's assassin uses the wind blade lock sickle to trigger the knock-up effect, thus hitting the opponent infinitely. This style of play is very violent, and there is good damage in the early stage. The disadvantage is that the skill vacuum period is relatively long, which is better than Shen Huai's blood. Assassins are more suitable for solo play.

Seeing Si Qianjin's remaining blood, Tao Lele started a duel against Jia Yunge. Luo Lie took the opportunity to kill Si Qianjin with a combo, and then the two of them dealt with Jia Yunge together.

However, Jia Yunge's poison-type holy light is obviously more powerful. It is completely worthwhile to use one against two. He took advantage of the vacuum period of Luo Lie's skills to kill him, and then fought a tug-of-war with Tao Lele. Tao Lele played violently. But Jia Yunge couldn't hold back Jia Yunge's milk supply, and was eventually exhausted a little bit.

Si Jin clapped and clapped, "Come, come, let me introduce you to my bound thigh, Jia Yunge, Yunshen!"

Jia Yunge also cooperated very much, holding his little doll and waving to everyone, quite a sense of sight of a leader inspecting.

Tao Lele and Luo Lie weren't depressed either. The two briefly replayed the game just now, giving advice to each other and preparing for the next game.

Song Xueyang asked Shen Huai, "Which of these two pairs do you think is better?"

Shen Huai recorded in his notebook, "Tao Lele and Luo Lie. Although Jia Yunge and Si Qianjin won, there were many problems exposed. Jia Yunge could neither assist Si Qianjin, create an output environment for him, nor protect him. The two will win entirely because their overall strength is stronger than their opponents. In contrast, the combination of Tao Lele and Luo Lie is more skillful, as long as it is improved, it will definitely come in handy."

Song Xueyang also agrees with this point of view, the plasticity of today's competition is more important than winning.

The next game is Jin An, Liang Minghui VS Guan He, Zhou Ning, everyone gathered together, wanting to see what Captain Guan is like playing 2V2.

Jin An and Liang Minghui played WG's chain bonus stream. Jin An was very smart, Liang Minghui didn't bother to teach him, he could do well, and he was very hardworking. Leaving the training room, Liang Minghui was a little impressed, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he was a player of the championship team.

The cooperation between the two is very stable, and there is no obvious shortcoming in the serial bonus style of play. Shen Huai took a look and ticked the back of this pair of combinations. What surprised him was Zhou Ning.

Zhou Ning's style of play is completely different from before. He has always relied on skills to connect with basic attacks and quick attacks to play control. But this time his attack speed and skill CD are a lot slower, but his damage is explosively high. surface.A combo of Drunken Song Sword, Bright Moon Slash, and Sword Dance Qiankun directly knocked out half of Jin An's vitality, and the terrifying output made everyone in the training room exclaim.

Shen Huai asked in disbelief, "Could it be..."

Song Xueyang nodded with a smile, "Give up all your strength."

The epee swordsman is the most frank among the swordsman branches. In addition to the high amount of blood and defense given by the passive skill, there is also an active damage reduction skill. In contrast, the epee sword has a very slow attack speed and the skill has a serious backswing. It is easy to be dodged. In order to make up for this defect, most epee swordsmen will choose attack speed and agility in equipment and points, and the talent is the same.

But Zhou Ning's current bonus point completely gave up these two items and changed it to full power. Even the equipment item is power, and the weapon is a storm sword that increases his own attack power by 10%. The attack power has been greatly improved. Ascension, but the movement is much slower.

Song Xueyang smiled and said authentically, "It's really related to the team. The speed of the game with full strength will be much slower, but the swordsman itself has a very good acceleration skill Yufengxing. If you don't play fast attack, it will not be very fast. And full strength The point-adding style of play is one move to control the enemy, and the fault tolerance rate is very low, so only players like Zhou Ning who are patient, cautious, and have excellent psychological quality can play well."

Shen Huai thought so too.

Zhou Ning suddenly changed his style of play, and he was still not quite used to it. His operation had dropped a lot, and his running-in degree was not high enough.Guan He was not in a hurry, and while dealing with the two enemies, he simply gave him some instructions, and finally defeated Jin An and Liang Minghui.

After the two left the stage, Guan He pulled Zhou Ning aside to guide patiently. Seeing this scene, Shen Huai was really happy for Zhou Ning.

Every professional player in the current circle is not only highly skilled, but also has a familiar and iconic style of play. Sometimes the tactics that suit him are even more important than the operation, and Zhou Ning finally with the help of Guan He Embarked on the road to find a style of play that suits you.

Then came Xiao Zhang and Song Xueyang. This pair was full of weirdness from the players to the style of play. The two of them sat in front of the computer and did not communicate.

Xiao Zhang is powerful, and the qigong master has his own blood recovery skills. It is completely worthwhile to fight one against two in the front. Song Xueyang hides behind and shoots secretly. Amazing.

However, Shen Huai understood that the tacit understanding between the two did not come from cooperation, but from the mutual trust between the top experts.

Because he knew that the opponent didn't need to worry about it, he just played according to his own rhythm. There was nothing tactical at all, but he won by virtue of his strength.

Shen Huai was inspired by this game and came up with a more suitable candidate for Song Xueyang.

The whole afternoon's game left everyone unsatisfied. It was a great feeling to be able to train against so many masters, and I didn't feel tired at all.

At dinner in the evening, Tao Lele and Luo Lie, who were at the bottom of the score, were going to perform.

Luo Lie knew that he was a newcomer, and he was taken care of by Tao Lele. He volunteered to perform a magic trick and invited Tao Lele to be his assistant. Everyone ate while watching the show. The first day of training was very enjoyable.

Except for one person, Sun Yuan.

Not only did he not have a partner, but no one even paid attention to him. He thought that Shen Huai must have made a hindrance. Now that he was alone in the room, it was Shen Huai who isolated him on purpose!

Sun Yuan was so angry that he left without eating two bites.

On the road, I met Xiao Zhang who was late.

Sun Yuan rolled his eyes and ran up quickly, "Why did Xiao Shen come to eat?"

Xiao Zhang ignored him at all, and walked forward as if he didn't see him.

Sun Yuan's anger finally reached the critical point, "Xiao Zhang, don't you also like Shen Huai? If so, why don't we join forces?"

Xiao Zhang stopped and squinted at him.

Sun Yuan gained confidence, and his tone slowed down, "I know you have a problem with Shen Huai. You hate him, so you target him everywhere. I hate him too. As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. As the captain, is it guaranteed to get No.1? Chairman Hua will come to check the training results in person two days later. As long as we work together to make Chairman Hua feel that he is useless, then even if he can participate in the wild card competition, this captain He can't be. What do you think?"

Xiao Zhang laughed sarcastically, and strode towards Sun Yuan with big strides. Sun Yuan resisted the urge to back away with that ruffian look.

"I targeted Shen Huai because I was stronger than him, more senior than him, and more capable than him, so I couldn't understand that everyone praised him, and I couldn't understand his hypocrisy and affectation. But what about you? You are more capable than him. Where is the strength? A trash who jumped to a low-level team for the position of vice-captain? I think you are the real trash."

Xiao Zhang chuckled, turned around and left, leaving Sun Yuan alone, clenched his fists fiercely.
