Chapter 326: Pre-season

Hearts picked up on this with seeming interest: "Bai Liu has killed the game all the way."

"That's where Bai Liu is so wrong." The man snorted, "I don't need to tell you how fatal the instability of newcomers is, do I Hearts ?"

" Instead of thinking about playing a few more regimented games in the early pre-season to grind out the team's inconsistency, Bai Liu wasted opportunity after opportunity to grind and train by thinking about killing games early to gain notoriety."

This one laughed mockingly and commented arrogantly, "Short-sighted fools."

"You'll see, playing in a group game late on Bai Liu is going to be a big problem, his tactics just don't work."

While these two men were talking, the screen in the middle of the viewing pool flashed.

[System Alert: Wandering Circus has 8 points, killed the game early and advanced to the next round]

[Stormy House team eliminated]

The crowd was in a frenzy, the ear-splitting screams drowning out the sound of their conversations, even the fan in the audience sitting next to Hearts couldn't care less about Hearts.

He stood up and danced frantically with his hands in the air, calling out the names of the Wandering Circus and Bai Liu.

In the league, winning means everything.

Hearts withdrew his gaze: "So your tactic of sneaking up on your opponents in reality is working?"

Bai Liu, who had logged out, patted his shirt down as the Frenzied Lamb tactician sat back in his seat, gazing away from Bai Liu, who seemed oblivious to all of this, and slowly curled one side of his lips into a sneer, his face taking on a progressively bloodier expression.

"Sure."

"In an already weak team game, if one of Bai Liu's key players gets injured and makes a mistake, he's bound to lose."

Hearts said nonchalantly, "Your tactics have an Achilles heel."

The man glanced at Hearts and said contemptuously, "Little witch, isn't she?"

"As long as I don't kill the others completely and they get into the game, the little witch can cure them with medicine."

"Yes." Hearts leaned forward softly, a sharp playing card emerging from her hand and holding it between two fingers against the man's neck and lifting it up, whispering close to her ear, "And if you touch the little witch, I can't kill you here, but I wouldn't mind using your tactics."

"Get down and kill off the field."

The man lazily threw up his hands in surrender, feeling like he didn't take Hearts' threat seriously: "I won't touch the little witch, her skills are too rare and I'd like to recruit her when we get to the league next year."

"She's not the one I'm going to lay hands on."

"I prefer to challenge jugglers to go down." His gaze fell grimly on Bai Liu, "especially the ones that look flashy."

Mu Sicheng stretched out after his match against the Storm House and followed Bai Liu out of the viewing pool: "Are we still playing today?"

"No more fighting." Bai Liu said, "Going to the game pool to practice for the team game."

Mu Sicheng jammed: "Huh? Why didn't you just practice for the team game?"

"If you forfeit a single or double match, you'll be able to play the team matches one by one, right?" Mu Sicheng asked, puzzled from the bottom of his heart, "Why go to the game pool to practice when there's no opponent in the game pool?"

Bai Liu said lightly, "How come you don't have a rival, your rival is Captain Tang."

Mu Sicheng was stunned: " Tang Erda ????"

"Yes." Wang Shun nodded in agreement with Bai Liu, "President Bai and I had a long discussion and came up with this solution."

"God Mu, you, Liu Jiayi and Muke are all new to the game and have not played in the league before, so there is a lot of instability on the field, especially in team games where you are not always on time with the others, which can sometimes lead to a disrupted attacking or defensive rhythm."

Mu Sicheng frowned: "Wouldn't it be better to practice in pre-season?"

"No, there's too much information exposed by practicing in the pre-season." Wang Shun shook his head, "That's one thing, the other thing is the opponents in pre-season, you guys got a feel for them today, do you really think you can get better playing against these teams in team games?"

Mu Sicheng is silent for a moment.

To be honest, the weakness of today's opponent was almost making him swell with a sense of [league? That's it?] feeling.

Wang Shun sighs, "Is it that you feel so weak that you have no counter value at all?"

"For you very strong newcomers, using a very weak team like this as a grindstone to polish you up will only get you used to this low level of match-ups."

"But you'll be playing top guilds soon afterwards, and the steep rise in the level of your opponents will make you uncomfortable, so using these guilds for group training is not something President Bai and I agree is appropriate."

Mu Sicheng scratched the back of his neck in annoyance: "But Bai Liu and I work well together, do we need to go to all this trouble to train?"

Wang Shun sighed helplessly again, "It's not that you and Bai Liu work well together, it's that Bai Liu works well with you."

" Bai Liu can work well with any of you, not just you, and that goes for Captain Tang as well, he's a very experienced starter and can accommodate your mistakes to a certain extent."

"The problem is that the three of you are working with each other, Bai Liu and Captain Tang are fine, so Bai Liu doesn't need to participate in your side of the training."

Mu Sicheng points defiantly at Bai Liu: "But this guy is a newcomer too! Why isn't he in!"

Liu Jiayi rolled her eyes, "Do you think we're on the same level as Bai Liu, the pervert?"

Muke nods, "I can train."

Bai Liu smiled, "I have to train too, just not for your side."

Muke was stunned, then his eyes went back and forth quickly between Bai Liu and Tang Erda, swallowing carefully, " Bai Liu is going to ......"

"Yes, I'm on Captain Tang's side." Bai Liu smiled, "You three as a team, the enemy is me and Captain Tang as a team."

Tang Erda walks up behind Bai Liu with a stern look on her face, clutching her chest and glancing at them with a cold look in her eyes that shows no mercy.

Bai Liu smiles a friendly smile, "I think that with me and Captain Tang combined, there should be enough to polish your instability."

Mu Sicheng, Liu Jiayi, Muke: "......"

Wang Shun turned to Bai Liu: "Today's game pool was auctioned off by our guild, so you can go there anytime, except ......"

Bai Liu looks to Wang Shun: "Is there anything else?"

Wang Shun hesitated for a moment but said, "There's a killer sequence match today against last year's ranked 27 [Skeleton Legion], it's about to start, do you want to watch it before you go?"

Bai Liu paused for a moment, "Go."

Killer sequence race viewing pool.

This huge viewing pool is probably ten times more densely populated than Bai Liu's previous viewing pool, No. 98.

Bai Liu stands far from the top edge of the viewing pool, his eyes downcast as he watches the killings on the big screen in the centre.

There was also a presenter in front of the big screen with a microphone raucously commentating.

"What you are seeing now is our strongest player in the Slayer Sequence [Spades] taking on a member of the Skeleton Legion [Disciples], who also had some good results in the single player tournament last year ......"

Mu Sicheng couldn't help but complain, "This man is so noisy."

Wang Shun explained in a whisper, "Very popular matches have commentators, you have to get used to them, but you can't hear them in the game."

The host suddenly raised his voice: "Spades, our Spades has the whip around his opponent's neck! Is he trying to kill his opponent to kill the match early!"

On the big screen Spades is kneeling on one knee over the shoulder of another player, his expression cold as he holds the whip in one hand and strangles upwards, the other player's face turns purple from the strangulation but soon falls forward, bringing the Spades down on his body.

Spades landed a smooth flip and seemed to get something from this [disciple] and the big screen went out instantly.

[System Alert: Congratulations to player Spades for collecting all the key items.

[System Alert: Player Spades kills the match early and wins the single player match with 2 points]

The room was silent for a minute or so, then a mountain of cheers.

The host's shrill voice overwhelmed these whoops: "Game over in 5 dimensional minutes! The time record for a single mid-season match has been set! And this is the first match of the killer sequence!!!"

"This team of last year's champions has lived up to our expectations and returned in a stronger form!"

Spades logged out of the game in full view of the crowd and walked straight back to his seat without a glance.

Spades nodded with a bemused expression, his eyes downcast as he wrapped the bandages around his hands and the handle of his whip.

The frenzied attention of the crowd was focused on Spades alone, but Spades' eyes never swept over the crowd, taking the cheers and jumps of the onlookers for granted, even though they had nothing to do with him.

It looks like a god who has always been worshipped, powerful to the point of being a stranger.

Soon the pairs race also started.

[System Alert: Double Race about to start]

[Bai Yi, Bai Jiamu vs Centurion, Bone Shield Rider, Skeleton Legionnaire]

The presenter droned on excitedly commentating, "The pairs competition was always a weakness in the killer sequence last year, I wonder what will change this year ......"

Mu Sicheng, who was watching the big screen, watched Bai Yi and Bai Jiamu's flowing counter-attacks, pressing their opponents to death step by step, and his face gradually turned gloomy.

Bai Liu asked calmly, "See anything?"

Mu Sicheng ground his back teeth: "Do these two people share a brain?"

"The coordination is outrageous." Liu Jiayi's expression also congealed, "What happens to one person, the other can react quickly even when they are a hundred thousand miles away, and all the sparring is as fluid as if it was done by one person."

"And I didn't see any sign of them communicating." Muke took a deep breath, "How?"

The four men on the big screen are tangled in a small space.

The moment Bai Yi was about to be touched from behind by a skeleton's bony claws, Bai Jiamu flew over with a sharp eye and opened a scalpel without missing a beat.

Meanwhile, Bai Jiamu's opponent in front of him was backhanded into the air by Bai Yi with a whisk as he deflected his attack.

In such a small space, these two men actually did not hurt each other in their attacks in the slightest, and their attacks were articulated with incomparable silky smoothness, while these two men did not exchange a single word.

The opponents were pushed into a corner step by step and eventually lost the game.

[System Alert: Player Bai Yi, Bai Jiamu killed the match early and won the single player match with 6 points]

[System Alert: Killer Sequence has accumulated 8 points in this match, killing the match early and ending the match]

[The Skeleton Legion has 0 points for the game].

The room was completely buzzing with excitement.

Everyone was cheering vociferously for the Killer Sequence and Spades' names, and others were writhing and dancing right in their seats as if the winner had been crowned early in the moment.

Wang Shun looked on with mixed feelings: "This is the beauty of top guild competitions."

"Compared to last year's killer sequence, this year's killer sequence has matured a lot." Liu Jiayi calmly analyses, "It should be a credit to that tactician, who has trained this team well."

Bai Liu watched for a moment and calmly turned around, "Come on, get to training, we're not even close at the moment."

After the game, the Killer Sequence Lounge.

Reverse God clutched his head, his eyes dulled as he muttered to himself, "What to do, what to do, the next game to play the eighth ranked team is very strong, there is no way to kill the game early, to play a group game ......"

The others didn't feel the slightest bit of anxiety from the Reverse God, as the game was killed early today, and Bai Yi was very excited to be circling the Reverse God.

Only Liao Ke looked at the Reverse God with sympathy: "Has the situation become so dire?"

The Reverse God nodded heavily, "Yes."

Bai Yi sat curiously next to him, "Didn't we kill the game early today, what's so grim about it?"

The Reverse God sighed, "I didn't kill the game early for a gimmick, I did it to avoid a team game."

"Our team's group games are simply immature, and we'll get beaten up against these big guilds that have honed their maturity."

"You're the culprit!" The Reverse God looked resentfully at Spades who seemed to be dozing on the couch.

Spades rolled over and went back to sleep.

The Reverse God sighed helplessly, "Forget it, it's useless to scold you now, all in all it means is that right now we are in a dangerous situation and need to practice more for group matches."

He turned to Liao Ke: "Did we get a shot of the game pool today?"

Liao Ke spreads his hands, "Nah, we were late, it was the Wandering Circus that shot the game pool today, and this team killed the game early all the way today as well."

"I guess it's a similar situation to ours, where the team game is the shortcoming, so that's why they shoot the game pool to practice."

The Reverse God glanced at Spades lying asleep on the sofa and raised his voice deliberately, "Wandering Circus, the tactician is Bai Liu, right?"

Spades, who had been sleeping on the sofa, opened his eyes and sat up violently.

His face, still bearing the red marks from being slept on, looked straight at the Reverse God and said, " Bai Liu, where is it?"

Against the Gods: "......"
