The King's Avatar Episode 31 Recap
> The King's Avatar Recap
Ye Xiu said that he played matches for very personal ideals. At least for him, the matches were not played for the fans at all. When the Jia Shi fan heard this, he indignantly pointed his camera at Ye Xiu, but unexpectedly, the comments on the live broadcast were all praising Ye Xiu. He left angrily, and before leaving, he threatened that Xing Xin could only be arrogant until they played against Jia Shi.
Apart from Bao Rongxing, everyone else felt that there was no need for Ye Xiu to say these words, but Ye Xiu said that he said them not only for the fans but also for them. Everyone must understand why they played matches. It was difficult to win a championship by trying to please the fans. What the fans liked was not necessarily right. How to play needed to be decided by themselves, because they were the professional players.
Ye Xiu and his group returned to Xing Xin Internet Cafe, just in time to see Chang Xian waiting at the entrance. Chang Xian told Ye Xiu that netizens now wanted to see what the real Ye Xiu looked like. Whether it was questioning or praising, recognition or rejection, none of it would be a burden to Xing Xin. Professionalism, dedication, and skill were the attitudes a professional e-sports player should have. Their journey was still continuing.
The time for the match had arrived again. In today's stadium, there would be two highly anticipated matches. Jia Shi and Xing Xin, the two powerhouses of the Challenger League with six consecutive wins, would both successively face their opponents' challenges. Chen Guo was rushing to submit the registration form but was stopped by Wu Chen, the captain of Team Wu Ji. Wu Chen proposed a cooperation with Xing Xin.
He said that Xing Xin and Wu Ji were in similar situations, both facing a giant like Jia Shi. The goals of the two teams were the same, so they might as well merge the two teams. He also said it would be an honor for Xing Xin, and they wouldn't have to play today's match.
Upon hearing this, Chen Guo told him that Xing Xin never had a match where they admitted defeat without fighting, and she rejected Wu Chen's proposal. Seeing this, Wu Chen could only state his real intention. He was not interested in a grassroots team like Xing Xin. He just felt that a figure like Ye Xiu should not be at Xing Xin; Wu Ji was more suitable for him.
Chen Guo told Wu Chen firmly that Ye Xiu would not go to Wu Ji. Wu Chen asked her in return if she could make this decision for Ye Xiu. Just then, Ye Xiu, who had been listening nearby, appeared and told Wu Chen that Chen Guo could. He also told Wu Chen that if he wanted to join Xing Xin, he could consider it, otherwise, they would settle it on the field.
Jia Shi finished their match and achieved a good result of seven consecutive wins. Su Mucheng and Xiao Shiqin felt that the people who wanted to understand you the most were your enemies, so they decided to go watch Xing Xin's match. Team Xing Xin finished the first half of the match with a score of five to one and were about to play the team competition against Team Wu Ji.
Just then, Su Mucheng also saw a familiar figure in the audience - Sun Xiang. Sun Xiang stubbornly said he was there to watch Wu Ji's match. Su Mucheng playfully pulled down his hat, telling him to watch the match openly. Neither Xing Xin nor Wu Ji had put a Cleric in their starting lineup, which surprised everyone and increased their anticipation for the showdown between the two teams. The match map was Wolf Poison Land.
Everyone's spawn point was different, scattered in different locations. Wolf Poison Land was a survival map. Poison mist would slowly spread from the edge of the map towards the center. If one touched the poison gas, they would continuously lose health. Due to the special nature of the map, Ye Xiu commanded everyone to gather at the center of the map as quickly as possible. The two sides started a skirmish.
Wu Ji intentionally avoided Ye Xiu, planning to first use two members to kill Tang Rou. Currently, the members couldn't gather, so everyone could only try their best to rely on their own abilities to escape the predicament. On the other side of the battlefield, Qiao Yifan was fighting against the Summoner Bing Yi. How to get rid of the summoned beasts and get to the Summoner himself would be key.
Qiao Yifan finally succeeded in getting to the Summoner himself, and also realized that he must rendezvous with his teammates as quickly as possible. Although Tang Rou was fighting against two opposing members by herself, she successfully repelled the Ninja with her astonishing hand speed. Bao Rongxing was still continuously moving towards his teammates' direction but was suddenly hit by a long-range attack. Bao Rongxing quickly got up to observe his surroundings but didn't find the figure of the ambusher.
It turned out that at this time, Wu Chen was attacking Bao Rongxing from a high place. Although separated by heavy mist, his accuracy was unbelievably high, rapidly depleting Bao Rongxing's health. Finally, Wu Chen successfully took down Bao Rongxing, and Xing Xin's substitute entered the match. Just then, Su Mucheng and Xiao Shiqin, who were watching the match, noticed something slightly off, because Wu Chen's accuracy was simply unreasonably high.
And there was indeed something fishy about Wu Chen's accuracy. He had obtained everyone's coordinates through off-field communication, which allowed him to precisely strike opponents in the mist. After taking down Bao Rongxing, he aimed his target at Tang Rou. Just as he was attacking Tang Rou, Ye Xiu discovered his figure and intervened to stop him. Tang Rou was still struggling against two opponents.
Although she wasn't completely at a disadvantage thanks to her astonishing hand speed, her health was constantly being depleted, and it would be difficult for her to hold on without support. Just when they were in danger, Qiao Yifan finally arrived, but the three-versus-two situation was unfavorable for the two of them, so they decided to first rendezvous with Ye Xiu.
Qiao Yifan and Tang Rou seized the enemies' gap and broke out of the encirclement, with Wu Ji in close pursuit. At this moment, Wei Chen also arrived in time and used Death's Hand to control the four enemies who were chasing the two. Captain Wu Chen was also suppressed by Ye Xiu, and Wu Ji fell into a disadvantageous situation.
Just when it seemed Xing Xin was about to achieve victory, the person arranged by Wu Chen cut the network. With the network cut off, the match could only revert to ten seconds earlier. This meant that the skill Wei Chen had used was completely ineffective. Xing Xin's members also felt that there was something strange about this network disconnection, but Ye Xiu said that whether Wu Ji cheated or not, they had to win it back.
The network was restored, and both sides restarted the match. Wu Ji adjusted their strategy and quickly retreated, attempting to drag out the battle with their numerical advantage. Xing Xin chose to fight head-on, wanting to drag Wu Ji into the mist. Both sides entered the mist simultaneously. At this point, the outcome was difficult to predict for a while, and everyone held their breath, very tense. Xiao Shiqin saw this situation and said the match was already over.
Wu Ji wanted to play mind games, but he had picked the wrong opponent. Finally, with tacit coordination, three people from Xing Xin rushed out of the mist, while on Wu Ji's front, only Wu Chen remained alive. Wu Chen recalled that before the match, the manager had told them that if they lost this match, the investors would withdraw their funds.
The team members had also said that they couldn't afford it anymore; if they lost this match, they would disband. However, Wu Chen insisted that Wu Ji could not disband, so he didn't hesitate to resort to cheating to win the match. On the field, only Wu Chen was left. The other team members had all left the match room one after another, but he was still struggling to hold on. The match was about to end.
Wu Chen's resistance was no different from a mantis trying to stop a chariot, and he ultimately lost the match. Wu Chen thought back to when they first won the Challenger League championship, everyone was full of aspirations for the championship, and they even agreed to reach the highest point in the city. But now, their morale was scattered, and Wu Ji was about to disband.
As Xing Xin was about to leave, they saw the manager of Team Wu Ji being interviewed and learned the news that Wu Ji was about to disband. They couldn't help but feel a bit regretful. Ye Xiu said that competitive sports never looked at how much effort you put in, only at how much strength you ultimately showed. Wu Chen found Ye Xiu and apologized for his cheating behavior.
Ye Xiu, however, told him that instead of saying it was okay, they might as well have a talk. Wu Chen sold all of Wu Ji's silver weapons to Xing Xin. Ye Xiu asked him what his plans were afterward. Wu Chen thought he still wanted to stay in Glory. Ye Xiu then asked him how he planned to stay in Glory, also pointing out that transfers were not optimistic.
