Chapter 14: The Magic Sword (4)

The game itself is a form of entertainment, and if everyone sends people back and forth for the sake of so-called profits, where is the fun of PVP gameplay? Wouldn't those camp NPCs who claim to be fighting each other to the death seem stupid again? This kind of behavior of buying and returning pearls is constantly staged in various games every day, and it has developed to the extreme, which is "open and hanging". In order to get false victories and points, the process of enjoying the game is completely abandoned.

I've also heard of a certain game's professional league where the famous Oscar night is staged. Due to some coincidences and formats, the winner of the battle will play against the stronger enemy. In order to avoid this, the two sides went back and forth to see who was the better player, and played a terrible match that was dishonoring the name of the profession, and it is still talked about by countless players to this day.

While there's nothing wrong with wanting to go far in the league, this utilitarian heart seems to go against the original purpose of the game itself, and provides a bad case for the entire esports community. Of course, there are not many cases of this kind looking at the entire sports circle, but I really don't want to be one of them, in order to get better attributes, buy the other party to be "killed".

At that time, in the event of an incident in the East Window, I have no way of judging whether the public opinion at that time will be mainly understood or attacked. And ruining the game's inherent gameplay and the design intent of this magic sword also goes against my original intention of making the game better and better.

Thinking of this, I made a decision, I plan to store this sword called Grudge for the time being, until the end of the second league, if we make it to the top league, then there will be a period of off-season before the start of the Samsara Cup, and I can use this time to focus on improving the strength of my sword.

Since most of the pros and streamers with Shenwu will be on the air during the offseason, I can easily find their location by following the live stream, and then find a way to kill them, which also saves me the effort of searching for weapons all over the map.

The other point is that there is enough time to buffer everyone's suspicion of the library, after all, if I take out this sword after more than a month, it will not make everyone have much connection with the skills that appeared before.

But the existence of this sword has always made me a little uneasy, and if I can successfully kill ten strong men in a row by then, it is difficult for me to imagine what kind of topic it will cause. Not only my own fans, but many professional players themselves know me and my account, what kind of waves will it make in the industry when the time comes, and how will the outside world evaluate me? It's a bit worrying.

After that, the schedule went well, and we won all the way to the top of the regular season and entered the playoffs. The playoffs of the minor league will kick off in N City, where all the teams will gather in N City to compete for a place in the only top league.

As far as the current situation of the top league is concerned, the situation of the Shengtang team is not optimistic, and it is the team that is most likely to fail in the next relegation match and fall into the secondary league. In other words, in this playoffs, whoever can win the final championship will be able to replace the Shengtang team and go to the top league.

The playoffs were played in just 10 days, and the schedule was very intensive, which was a double test of the physical strength and spirit of the players. Of the eight teams that made it to the playoffs, we were able to prioritize our opponents in the first round because of our team's better performance.

Normally, everyone will choose the weaker of the eight teams to ensure that they can make the cut. However, when it comes to the choice of opponents, everyone on the team is divided into two factions. Among them, the boss and coaching staff led by Zhang Guangyue hope to choose a weaker team and whose style is restrained by us to play against each other to ensure smooth promotion.

But the five players on the court were surprisingly unanimous, and they didn't choose anyone else - they chose the Heart Heist team.

Song Yi even directly and arrogantly said that because of the single round-robin system of the regular season, we have no chance of revenge at all, due to the return of a member of the "Syracuse" team that finished second in the regular season, the strength has been greatly enhanced, if the heart robbery is not in the same half as us at the time of the draw, it is very likely that the opportunity for revenge will be lost in the playoffs.

If we win all the way and get to the top flight, we'll never meet them again. It's like being punched by someone who knows that your strength is not as good as you, but you never have a chance to fight back in the future, which is really unpleasant.

In other words, it is up to us to choose whether we can meet them in this first round of selection, and if we miss this opportunity, we may never be able to take revenge.

Several members of the coaching staff saw that we were resolute, and Xu Zhiqiang also said that we could consider it, after all, if we want to win the championship in the end, we also need to defeat the strongest team, and it is also a good thing to raise the competitive intensity as soon as possible so that everyone can adapt to the rhythm of the playoffs in advance.

In the end, the two sides decided to compromise with each other, and Zhou Zhenyu said that as long as we can defeat the "Prince Team" from the top league in tonight's training match, then we can choose the Heart Tribulation Team as our opponent. If you lose in a training match, you have to choose the weakest opponent to start the playoffs.

The regular season of the Cause and Effect Cup is also coming to an end, and with one round of games remaining, the Prince team has secured a playoff spot, and their strength should not be underestimated. And the coach of their team took the initiative to find Luna after hearing that we were emerging in the minor league, hoping that the two teams would communicate more. Therefore, in the previous regular season, we also made a lot of training matches with them, but unfortunately we have always lost more than we won.

The reason is just like what Zhou Zhenyu mentioned before, our team competition system is too simple. In front of the top league teams, too single system is very easy to target and crack, so even if we don't fall behind in the battlefield and ring matches, we have been very unsatisfactory in terms of results because we are too passive in team matches.

At this point in time, Zhou Zhenyu put forward such a request, firstly, to stimulate our competitiveness and morale, and secondly, to test whether the Linfeng Gaoge gun system commanded by me and operated by Song Yi that he proposed before can play a role in the face of strong teams and overcome this biggest shortcoming of our current stage.

Once we get it, the chances of winning the second division will be much higher, and it doesn't matter who we choose in the first round.

Everyone felt that Zhou Zhenyu's proposal was fair and reasonable, so they accepted the proposal. Who knew that this first step was just the beginning of his routine, and soon we found out that Coach Zhou Zhenyu Zhou was really bad, the kind that penetrated into his bones.
