Chapter 142 - Magician (1/2)

When Ye Xiu yelled “Big-eyed w.a.n.g”, even though Tiny Herb’s team members weren’t happy about it, there was nothing they could say. Everyone quietly looked at their captain’s face and saw that their captain wasn’t angry about it.

“Trash talk, trash talk!” Tiny Herb’s team members said to each other.

“Come!” w.a.n.g Jiexi typed out, but then hinted towards Tang Rou’s Soft Mist and they both left the room.

Tang Rou’s Soft Mist followed him out. Ye Xiu waited until there was nothing going on before sending Tang Rou a message: “Did you cry?”

“My face is covered with tears!” Tang Rou said.

“Wipe them away and continue fighting!” Ye Xiu said.

“Yes!” Tang Rou replied.

Ye Xiu knew that Tang Rou was fine. Just as expected, he had picked correctly. To this sister, this type of method couldn’t have fit her any better. Being defeated wouldn’t affect her at all. For this girl, the more she failed, the braver she would get. She was also smart. Ye Xiu was confident that having this Champion team train with her would definitely help her improve a lot.

As for the other player with great potential, Steamed Bun Invasion, Ye Xiu didn’t call out to him for now. Steamed Bun Invasion had a video game background. He wasn’t weak either, so once he started playing Glory, he had his own way of making decisions. To put it simply, he had his own unique style.

Nowadays, in the pro-scene, in order to achieve steadiness, a lot of the new players all received coaching, so their skill in strategy and tactics became more and more set in stone. There were few new players with their own unique styles. This was especially so for those players that had been trained by the Club from the start, such as Gao Yingjie, who was simply being molded into another w.a.n.g Jiexi.

This was why on this point, Steamed Bun Invasion was even better. Although his unique style might be a bit noobish and stupid right now, Ye Xiu was looking forward to how this unique style would develop.

Coming back on topic, Steamed Bun Invasion was still only an online friend and wasn’t like Tang Rou, who he could talk to in real life. As for his character, Ye Xiu couldn’t really figure him out. If there was a chance, it would be okay for him to try fighting with an expert. But to directly have him get mercilessly crushed one round after another like Tang Rou.. that was something he couldn’t place his luck on. Even w.a.n.g Jiexi was afraid that his team of pro-players would be negatively impacted by being mercilessly crushed. How could Ye Xiu dare to let Steamed Bun Invasion, who he didn’t really understand well enough, undergo a cleansing.

“They should be finished by now.” He once again made a prediction for w.a.n.g Jiexi and Tang Rou’s fight and felt that it was about time now. Sure enough, after a few seconds, the two players came back. w.a.n.g Jiexi didn’t say anything more and brought his Fiery Blaze directly up onto the field.

“Tsk tsk, you’ve become more merciful. If it was the you from before, then shouldn’t 30 seconds have probably been enough? Of course, now that you’re the captain, things have changed.” Ye Xiu said. Once w.a.n.g Jiexi’s character entered the field, the two could talk.

“Let’s start!” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

“Do you want me to let you win this one? You guys have lost ten matches. If you happen to win this one, then it’d be a big boost to your team’s morale.” Ye Xiu said.

“But I don’t think I’ll lose for certain.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

“But you know it.” Ye Xiu dully said.

“Is there any point in trash talking…..” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

“Yeah, there is. Just look at Huang Shaotian.” Ye Xiu said.

“……” w.a.n.g Jiexi didn’t have any words for a moment. With regards to trash talk, especially Huang Shaotian’s trash talk, it really was a pain for their Tiny Herb.

Tiny Herb was last season’s, Glory Professional Alliance’s, Season 7 Champions. Apart from that, they were also the Season 5 Champions. In between, they had their t.i.tle as Champions taken away by Huang Shaotian in Season 6. If it wasn’t for this, Tiny Herb would have already become three-time Champions, creating a new era.

Unfortunately, on their road to becoming Champions, the team’s mentality wasn’t good enough. Under the pressure from their fans’ expectations, when they were faced with Huang Shaotian’s full-screen trash talk, everyone became somewhat unsteady. In that final deciding match, they lost, making them feel extremely depressed and unwilling to accept the result.

This was an experience that Tiny Herb hated to bring up. But now, Ye Xiu had brought it up…..

This was trash talk!

w.a.n.g Jiexi decided. He collected his thoughts and didn’t say anything more, completely entering a compet.i.tive state of mind.

Everyone in Team Tiny Herb was extremely nervous. Even though they had maintained a steady compet.i.tive state of mind the entire way through, losing from the beginning to the end really was very shameful, which was why everyone was hopeful that their captain would pull out a win. Also, wasn’t one of their little brothers from Herb Garden watching them? This person knew of their ident.i.ties. If he saw them lose from the beginning to the end, then wouldn’t that turn their fan into a hater?

This “little brother” was Plantago Seed, Herb Garden’s tenth server guild leader. In front of the team’s pro-players, of course he would be treated as a little brother. Ten losses in a row! Plantago Seed really was speechless. Lord Grim: this player’s strength had been looked down on! This was a player that shouldn’t even have existed in the game!

Right now, it was G.o.d Jiexi’s turn. He was Team Tiny Herb’s last hope. Plantago Seed was even more nervous than anyone else. For the team he supported to lose so badly.. He was worried too!

Magic Missile!!

w.a.n.g Jiexi’s Witch was the first to move, suddenly sending out a Magic Missile.

Lord Grim sidestepped and dodged it. He raised the weapon in his hands. Ta ta ta, three consecutive sounds, three Anti-Tank Missiles.

He was once again using Tri-Shot and the three Anti-Tank Missiles formed a triangle. But this wouldn’t stop w.a.n.g Jiexi. With a move, his Fiery Blaze leaped onto his Broom and flew away, avoiding it.

However, that sort of unavoidable situation was something every Tiny Herb member had experienced.
