Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was the third week of May.
The third round of the Divinity Pro League had officially begun.
On Friday morning, everyone from Tianheng flew to Ya 'an City, the venue of the competition. When they arrived at the hotel to check in, they bumped into the members of Jing Zhe's team.
Fang Zhengqing walked up to Chi Shuo and smiled. "What a coincidence."
Chi Shuo looked at the luggage in his hands and asked, "You guys just arrived too?"
Fang Zhengqing nodded. "Yes, we took the morning flight."
The two coaches shook hands. Coach Lin smiled and said, "Old Chen, what's the lineup for tomorrow?"
Coach Chen put on a fake smile. "Just ask your Captain Chi. He can guess it."
Chi Shuo was speechless.
It would be strange if he could guess. The coaches always let him guess and then eliminate the possibility.
Coach Chen looked at Ye Shaoyang and said, "Lieyang, you won't take the Goddess of Destiny tomorrow, right? This is fate. Don't try to resist? "
Ye Shaoyang said, "If I really do take it, you guys can resist."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Fang Zhengqing narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Shaoyang. "It's a duel between two of the league's best poop-pickers. How about this, whoever loses tomorrow will buy a box of delicious food for the other person's cat?"
Ye Shaoyang agreed readily. "Okay. What brand of canned food does your cat eat? "
Fang Zhengqing said helplessly, "My cat is very picky. It doesn't eat canned food. It only eats freeze-dried food."
Ye Shaoyang was a little surprised. "Really? My cat only likes canned food. It doesn't eat freeze-dried food. "
The two of them looked at each other. Fang Zhengqing thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll send the canned food I bought earlier to Tianheng for Little White to eat. Otherwise, it'll be a waste. "
Ye Shaoyang said, "No problem. I'll thank you on behalf of Little White."
Fang Zhengqing asked, "Is your cat a brother or a sister?"
Ye Shaoyang said, "It's a brother."
"Have you been sterilized?"
"Not yet. I plan to wait until it's a little older, about one year old."
The teammates around them pricked up their ears to listen to their conversation.
Chi Shuo frowned and looked at Fang Zhengqing. "Why don't you let your cat play tomorrow?"
Fang Zhengqing said, "Sure, why don't we apply to the Alliance to have everyone rest offstage during the match between Tianheng and Jing Zhe and let the two feline aliens fight to determine the winner?"
While they were chatting, another group of people walked over from behind them — it was the members of Yaoguang's team. Group A also had a match on Saturday afternoon. Yumao was suspended and Yaoguang was replaced with a new shooter.
Everyone met at the front desk of the hotel, and the atmosphere instantly became awkward.
Fang Zhengqing did not continue the topic of cats. He quickly finished the procedures and returned to his room.
On Saturday afternoon, Group A, Yaoguang vs Luo Shen Dian. Ye Shaoyang watched the live broadcast of the match from the hotel. Yaoguang was crushed by Luo Shen Dian, and 02 lost terribly. The comments section of the live broadcast was filled with mockery and insults.
Ye Shaoyang watched the match with mixed feelings. After dinner, he went to the arena with his teammates.
7 PM, Tianheng vs Jing Zhe. It was the highlight of the night.
The entire Ya 'an Esports Center's auditorium was filled with people. There was a large row of support posters in the back row. Tianheng's fans were not only holding promotional photos and team flags of the five of them, but there were also many holding Ye Shaoyang's cat avatar.
Little White was cute to begin with. Some fans had drawn cute avatars for it. Looking around, there were many cute avatars of Little White in the audience on the left. Jing Zhe was not to be outdone. Fang Zhengqing's fans also drew avatars for him. His ragdoll was the main color. It had a black nose and a black face. It looked very cold.
As a result, the entire auditorium became …
A showdown between the two cats.
The big screen happened to show the audience. The netizens in the live broadcast were laughing.
This was a showdown between two of the league's best poop-pickers!
Actually, we should have brought the two cats to the arena today and let them fight first. Then we can decide who is the blue team and who is the red team.
Let's guess, who is stronger between Little White and Little Fang?
I'm betting on Little Fang. After all, it looks fiercer. Little White is soft and obedient. It probably can't beat it!
Cats can't look alike. The more obedient a ragdoll is, the stronger it is.
It's said that cats' personalities are like their owners. If Fang Zhengqing is so lazy, his cat must be even lazier. If they really fight, Little White is obviously stronger. Because Little Fang is too lazy to move?
Hahaha, how lazy is Fang Zhengqing? He named himself [I'm Fang] and named his cat [Little Fang]. Does he not know how to write other characters besides' Fang '?!
Since Fang Zhengqing is so lazy, he should stay in the middle lane and not move!
[Dog-head.jpg] He's pretty hardworking in competitions.
Ye Shaoyang looked at the comments in the live broadcast room. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
If there was a chance in the future, why not let Little White get to know Fang Zhengqing's cat? Would the two cats become friends? Or would they fight when they meet? Ye Shaoyang was quite curious.
When the time came to 18: 40, the screen cut to the commentator's seat.
The backstage staff knocked on the door. "Tianheng's players, get ready to go on stage."
On the big screen, the two commentators said excitedly, "Audience friends, welcome to the Ya 'an eSports Center! This is the first week of the third round of the tenth season of the God Wars Official League. Group S, Tianheng VS Jing Zhe! "
"As we can see, there are many fans of the two teams here today. Also, there are a lot of cat avatars in the audience. "
"Yes! The cat people are also cheering for this game! "
"The middle lane players of the two teams are both poop-pickers. They have different Ragdoll cats. Although the two cats didn't come here in person, their avatars have taken up a third of the venue! "
There was a burst of laughter in the audience.
"Next, let's invite the two teams to the big stage!"
The players of Tianheng and Jing Zhe came to the stage from the left and right side respectively. The host did a simple pre-game warm-up. "As per the international practice, the pre-game talk segment. Do the two teams have anything to say?"
Fang Zhengqing took the microphone, pushed up his glasses, and said, "I don't ask for much. Chi Shuo will give me the first kill." Chi Shuo looked at him. "Got it. I'll take your head as soon as the game starts."
The host joked, "Chi Shuo and Fang Zhengqing have a lot of chemistry this time!"
There was a burst of laughter in the audience.
The host said, "Everyone, please go to the soundproof room to prepare. We look forward to the next exciting performance of the two teams!"
The two teams went to the soundproof room to prepare. The commentator began to introduce each player.
After a while, the game started.
The BP of the first game appeared on the big screen.
"Let's take a look at the BP of the first game. Tianheng is randomly assigned to the blue team. Priority ban. What hero will Coach Lin ban? "
"Will he ban [Cobra King]? After all, this is Fang Zhengqing's famous hero. He is also the core of Jing Zhe's very strong poison team. "
"Coach Lin banned [Holy Spirit Archer]. Is this targeting the archer position?"
"What will Jing Zhe ban? Jungler or mid laner?"
"Uh … Jing Zhe's priority is to ban [Forest Messenger], and ban [Healer]!"
"Tianheng's second ban is [Poison Master], and Jing Zhe's ban [Blessed Priest]. Both teams' BP in the first stage is targeted at the bottom lane. So, this game is going to revolve around the bottom lane? "
The BP of the two teams confused the netizens.
Both mid laner and jungler?
Could it be that Chi Shuo and Fang Zhengqing's reverse tacit understanding had taken effect?
Regardless of what Chi Shuo and Fang Zhengqing thought, the coaches of both teams had a tacit understanding. In the first stage, the BP crazily targeted the bottom lane. Tianheng's first robber also took the bottom lane, and Jing Zhe also chose the bottom lane.
In the end, the heroes chosen by both teams were [Vampire Princess] archer, [Radiant Shield] support, and [Steel Body] top laner on Tianheng's side. Jing Zhe was [Snow Lady] archer, [White Bear] support, and [Dark Angel] top laner.
The two commentators analyzed, "Jing Zhe's [Snow Lady] + [White Bear] combination. [Snow Lady] archer can shoot ice arrows to slow down the opponent. [White Bear] can block damage and summon little bears to stun people. It's a control-type combination. Tianheng's [Vampire Princess] can suck blood and has strong self-defense abilities. Her support can also block damage. "
"It's not easy to target the bottom lane on both sides. In the top lane, Tianheng's main strategy is still to resist pressure. Jing Zhe's top laner is mid-range control. In a team fight, he can cooperate with the support to control. "
"Let's look at the second stage! Both teams should continue to target the mid laner and jungler. "
Because the coaches of both teams tacitly chose the top and bottom lanes in the first stage, and put the mid laner and jungler in the second stage, the four bans in the second stage would definitely be a game against the mid laner and jungler.
Everyone thought that Fang Zhengqing's [King Cobra] would definitely be banned.
However, Tianheng actually banned [Frost Goddess] and [Flame Goddess] in the second stage?
The audience guessed that Jing Zhe would ban Chi Shuo's jungler.
In the end, Jing Zhe banned Ye Shaoyang's [Lord of the Abyss] and [Saint Soul Sorcerer]?
The two commentators looked at each other. "I don't understand the BP of both teams."
"Yes, Chi Shuo's jungler and Fang Zhengqing's famous mid laner heroes have all been released? Why did Tianheng ban [Frost Goddess] and [Flame Goddess]? Fang Zhengqing almost doesn't use these two heroes, right? "
"Yes, this season, the Fang team only took down [Frost Goddess] and [Flame Goddess]. The Fire Mark team is best at this kind of control heroes. Why did they ban Jing Zhe's commonly used system today? "
Fang Zhengqing frowned slightly. "What are they going to do by banning two great mages who control the field?"
Coach Chen was also a little puzzled. He said thoughtfully, "Could it be that they chose to rush in and are afraid of being controlled?"
Fang Zhengqing pushed up his glasses. "That's possible."
Coach Chen: "Let's take the jungler first, and leave the counter position for the mid laner."
In the BP stage, the blue team could ban and choose first, and they had the advantage of making the first move. The red team would choose a hero later, and there would be a counter position (counter position). After the other team had all chosen, they would finally take out a targeted hero to restrain them.
Jing Zhe took the jungler [Fighter], which was the idea of using the jungler to protect the mid laner.
It was Tianheng's turn to choose.
In Tianheng's two boxes, a pair of heroes that no one had expected appeared at the same time —
Mid laner: White Wolf King.
Jungler: Black Wolf.
The two commentators were shocked. "Is this the Black and White Wolf King combination that disappeared for four seasons?!"
Fang Zhengqing: "…"
His glasses almost fell off.
Coach Chen's mood was complicated. He whispered, "Didn't you say that Chi Shuo doesn't know how to play Black Wolf?"
Fang Zhengqing: "…"
Don't ask. If you do, there's no tacit understanding.
Coach Chen was cursing wildly in his heart. Previously, a pair of mysterious experts, Sunshine and Moonlight, had appeared on the international server playing Black and White Wolf King. At that time, he had guessed that Moonlight was Chi Shuo. In the end, Fang Zhengqing said very confidently, "Chi Shuo doesn't know how to play Black Wolf, and he wouldn't use such an obvious name as a side account. Moreover, Chi Shuo never wakes up early."
If Fang Zhengqing said so, then it must be Chi Shuo!
It was all his fault for not learning the reverse elimination method.
He had been led astray by Fang Zhengqing and eliminated the correct answer.
