Full-time master: I have a spirit behind me.

arena……

To be honest, Sun Zheping was somewhat suspicious whether the other party was too nervous and chose the wrong map.

He has always looked down on the arena map, as there is so little that can be seen from the arena.

What's more, this is an arena run by an elemental mage... I'm being underestimated.

The corners of Sun Zheping's mouth twitched twice, as if he wanted to laugh, but he didn't.

"Brother Zheping, is he... angry?" Li Wen looked at his teammates around him uncertainly.

Sun Zheping was not like Han Wenqing who seemed to be always angry. He was calm but suppressed his unspeakable anger. He would laugh when he was happy, and he would curse when he encountered something that made him unhappy.

Sun Zheping seldom speaks sarcastically to others, and rarely makes similar expressions, so this made Li Wen more or less uncertain.

"Yes, I'm angry." Zhang Jiale nodded affirmatively.

"You must be pissed, right?"

"I have to say that Zhao Yuzhe's taunts were extremely effective. Be smart for a while. If Da Sun wants to hit someone after he gets off the stage, rush up to stop him immediately." Old Wei said in a serious tone.

Lin Jingyan was about to say that it shouldn't be possible, but looking at Sun Zheping's gloomy face, he nodded subconsciously: "You are right..."

Fang Rui tapped his shoulders and forehead, and began to mourn for Zhao Yuzhe.

Why do you have to mess with this guy when you can mess with anyone else?
I hope I can die gracefully soon.

"It shouldn't be that serious. My eldest grandson's anger threshold is quite... uh..." Fang Shijing was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhao Yuzhe's speech on the screen, not knowing how to continue.

Shao Guang Huan: [Senior, please give me more advice! ]

There's no hope. Carry him away.

Fang Shijing shut his mouth.

Advice...Okay, very good.

Sun Zheping took a deep breath, and within the restricted aperture, he kept turning the handle of the Scarlet Queen, and the heavy mechanical sword made a low roar.

At the moment the aperture disappeared, a blood-red light burst out from Zai Shui Yixia's body. The blood-red light was stretched behind Zai Shui Yixia, like a giant scarlet python, extending its fangs towards the opposite side.

[Sprint Impact]!
Can't hold back your temper? There was a hint of sarcasm on Zhao Yuzhe's lips. Shao Guanghuan was like walking in his own back garden, waving the silver staff in his hand, and rays of elemental light flashed across Shao Guanghuan's body.

Come faster, come faster!
Zhao Yuzhe licked his lips which had become slightly dry due to excitement, and stared at the figure in front of him.

It's now!

[Full Concentration] + [Absolute Zero]!
Originally this was prepared for Jun Moxiao, but now I want to test the waters on you first... eh?

The smug smile turned into astonishment in an instant before it appeared. Zai Shui Yixia, who had already rushed into the range of absolute zero, suddenly jumped back.

With the back-to-back [Mountain Collapse] and the Scarlet Queen's full-load operation, they were able to completely escape from the coverage of the absolute zero of time almost instantly.

"Absolute Zero is empty!" the commentator exclaimed, "Senior Sun Zheping made a prediction in advance?!"

"This doesn't seem to be difficult to understand..." Coach Chen hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke: "The Elemental Mage's guided play style was actually used as early as the second and third seasons. At that time, there was no skill called Absolute Zero. The common practice was to use Concentration to store Blizzard or Ice Line to achieve this effect, but... this play style has long been eliminated. Its practical value is a bit too low."

The storage of full concentration is not completely hidden. After selecting to store the next skill, the staff in your hand will faithfully display the elemental color represented by the next skill. Fire skills will appear red, light skills will appear yellow, and ice skills will naturally appear blue...

Moreover, even in the past, if elemental mages wanted to use this style of play to control their opponents, they would usually choose complex terrain maps to conceal their intentions and achieve this goal through sneak attacks.

You used a style that was already eliminated, but you challenged Sun Zheping's vision by using a map like the Arena that had an unobstructed view? Are you serious?
If you can at least throw in a teleport in the middle, I can praise you for being innovative and for your mastery of the timing of your skills.

But the way you are now...it's really hard to deal with!
Sun Zheping didn't even have the desire to mock. After a reverse back-to-back strike, he swung out a three-section slash and arrived in front of Shao Guanghuan almost instantly.

Zhao Yuzhe also managed to make sure not to waste time in the previous seasons, as he used teleportation at the moment of the final upward slash.

But... it seems to be in vain.

"Can you find the position for Shao Guang to change at this angle?" Ruan Yongbin, whose seat was a little off, said in surprise.

"It's not difficult. Before the three-stage slash, Zai Shui Yi Xia adjusted his position, including the front, left, and right perspectives. As long as Shao Guang Huan is not in the field of vision, he must have moved forward and turned to Zai Shui Yi Xia's back." Liu Hao sighed: "In the arena, the distance of instant movement is basically not much different from not moving at all."

Zai Shui Yixia turned his vision, expanded the range of the blade, and swept straight ahead.

[Blood Shadow Crazy Knife]!
The hit will stun the opponent, then he will fire a sword of blood and energy.

The two high-level skills were used, almost turning Shao Guang into a cripple in an instant, and what happened next seemed so logical...

【glory】!
Zhao Yuzhe felt a little dizzy and was somewhat unable to recover from the situation on the field.

This was completely different from what he had imagined. He had clearly prepared a foolproof plan to deal with melee professions. How could it be possible...

Just be defeated like this?
Thinking of what he had done before, Zhao Yuzhe felt his face turn red. He was now very upset about his... "carelessness".

Walking out of the competition seat and through the contestant passage, Sun Zheping was waiting for him on the stage with his hands in his pockets.

Zhao Yuzhe gritted his teeth and walked onto the stage. Before he could say anything, Sun Zheping took the lead in extending his hand, which made the embarrassed Zhao Yuzhe feel a little better, but soon, Sun Zheping's words made him pale.

"If you don't have Tang Hao's strength, don't even think about having Tang Hao's life, Elemental Mage, you're still far from it." Sun Zheping was calm with contempt, and simply shook his hand before retracting it: "Go back and watch the video carefully, and practice again, you make me feel like I'm living in the past."

"Or, you can ask Chu Yunxiu and Qin Tianran if they are willing to accept you as a disciple? Of course, don't tell them that I asked you to go. I'm afraid they will think I'm humiliating them."

"By the way, it's best to be sincere and serious. Maybe you can learn something new." Zhao Yuzhe's face turned pale and blue as he looked at Sun Zheping's back. He wanted to shout out Sun Xiang's words at the All-Star Game that year, "I lost today, but I may not lose tomorrow," but he couldn't say it in the end.

Back then, there was only a one-move difference between Sun Xiang and Han Wenqing, but today... Shao Guanghuan couldn't even deal any effective damage. How could he have the nerve to say that?

"What are you doing here?" Sun Zheping looked at his teammates surrounding the stage in confusion and asked.

"I thought you were going to beat him up." Fang Rui sighed, not knowing whether he was relieved or regretful: "We have made preparations to remedy the situation."

"..." Sun Zheping looked at him speechlessly and shook his head.

"It's okay, let's go."

"Just do what you need to do. I'm going to go smoke a cigarette."

"I'm going to buy two bottles of water. Does anyone want some?"

"I'll go with you too."

"Coke, ice cold, thank you."

Li Wen smiled and didn't go with them. The dinner was a bit heavy and he drank a lot of water. Now he needed to go to the bathroom.

On the other side, a person had been watching Li Wen's actions, and then stood up: "I... I'm going to the bathroom."

The players near the embers were using the bathroom. Su Muqiu's soul was leaning against the door, chattering non-stop: [I don't know how Ye Xiu is doing, Xiao Wen, you won this round quickly enough, that's the point of winning. Even if the score is tied, we can still compare the battle time. In this regard, we still have the advantage, Xiao Wen. After all, the damage sustained by low-level skills is a bit lengthy, and can't compare to ours... huh? ]

Li Wen pushed open the toilet cubicle with some confusion. Just when he was about to ask what was going on, he saw someone standing outside the door. Li Wen asked while washing his hands, "Hmm? Captain Liu? If I remember correctly, the toilet for the Howling Team should be on the other side, right?"

“I’m not here to…” Liu Hao hesitated for a moment, and finally let out a long breath, as if he had let go of a heavy burden. “I’m here to thank you, Captain Li. Thank you.”

A special thanks, even though the change had already begun, Liu Hao still wanted to tell the boy in person to put a final end to what he said last season.

Li Wen was stunned for a moment, and even stopped wiping his hands for a moment.

"Thank you for what you said to me last season." Liu Hao repeated: "After that, I thought about it carefully and suddenly realized...it's not that Captain Ye looked down on me, but that I have always looked down on myself."

Liu Hao said calmly: "Those things that I thought were suppression in the past, if you think about it carefully, Captain Ye talked to me after each one...but at that time, I never thought about it seriously.

Now that I’m exploring it myself, I gradually realize that those words are the summary of Captain Ye’s entire career. Come to think of it… I have indeed missed a lot.

But fortunately, it wasn’t too late to wake up. ”

Liu Hao smiled with relief and said, "When I first wanted to become a professional player, I didn't think about status or anything else. I just wanted to win. But later on, I got lost in the anger of others towards Captain Ye and Su Mucheng, but ignoring me... It's quite ridiculous, isn't it?

Just like what Captain Ye said, vanity and boasting are never the purpose of glory. Every journey is to develop towards a stronger peak..."

Liu Hao completely found himself again.

Li Wen laughed: "I need to get to know you again, Captain Liu."

"What a coincidence, I have also just come to know my new self." Liu Hao also laughed, without the previous feeling of flattery and fawning on others, but just a happy smile for being reborn.

"Actually, Captain Liu shouldn't have said these words to me... If you said this to Brother Ye, he would probably be very happy, right?" Li Wen said seriously.

"For Captain Ye, it's more practical to say never and never do." Liu Hao thought for a moment and said, "Next time when we meet Happy, I will use my actions to show him during the game."

"That's the best." Li Wen nodded: "Then congratulations to Captain Liu..."

"This is not something to be congratulated." Liu Hao interrupted Li Wen and said with a smile: "Because you have created a more powerful opponent with your own hands."

"Isn't this something that deserves even more congratulations?"

……

"Yes."

In the whistling preparation area, everyone looked at Liu Hao in surprise as he looked relaxed, walked lightly, and even smiled.

Liu Hao seemed to be different again... As the teammate who knew Liu Hao best, Guo Yang was the most surprised by his transformation: "Liu... Deputy Captain Liu, you..."

"Hmm?" Liu Hao looked at Guo Yang and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Uh... no, nothing." Guo Yang shook his head: "It's just a feeling..."

"I just feel that the team lost so badly, but you are smiling so happily. I don't quite understand." Zhao Yuzhe muttered softly. If he hadn't lost even more miserably in the last game, this sentence would have been louder.

"It's just an individual competition. The game isn't over yet, right, captain?" Liu Hao looked at Tang Hao with a smile.

Tang Hao hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"Isn't this feeling of catching up exactly what our Wind Howling Team is mottoing now?" Liu Hao said seriously, "To defeat the strong with the weak."

“……” Zhao Yuzhe opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything.

"Xiao Zhao's strategy is very good, but he underestimated his opponent. But it doesn't matter. Glory is not a one-man game. You can do better with the cover of your teammates in a team match, so adjust your condition as soon as possible." This comfort hit the spot in Zhao Yuzhe's heart. His originally hunched back straightened unconsciously. Liu Hao still spoke seriously: "The Embers team has already sent Captain Li and Senior Sun Zheping to the ring match. The subsequent ring matches should not release other veterans. This is not good for their rotation. Therefore, our pressure in the ring match will not be too great. Let's get these two points first to stabilize the fans' attitude..."

Tang Hao silently watched Liu Hao, who was controlling the overall situation with ease, without interrupting him.

This is also what he hoped for. Tang Hao knew very well that he did not have the ability to manage a team. What he could do was to become the banner of the Howling Team and lead them into battle, but for other things, he was more or less powerless.

As long as Liu Hao can manage the team well and allow himself to charge more recklessly, what's wrong with giving him power?
I am destined to become the irreplaceable one! (End of this chapter)
