Chapter 191: Points Competition
The beginning of the school season has quietly passed, and the new semester for college students is on the right track.
The Blue Birds lived up to expectations, survived three rounds of auditions strongly, and successfully advanced to the top 16 points competition.
The first time you entered the round of 16, it can be said that you were lucky, but the second time you entered the round of 16, it was a sign of strength.
Yu Yongliang, as the instructor of the Blue Bird team, was full of spring breeze, and he led everyone in the Blue Bird team to the restaurant that night.
In fact, putting aside factors such as ideological antiques, Yu Yongliang is still very good as a teacher, and he would reject Wen Hao so strongly before, mainly because he cares about the future of the team, if he hands over the position of coach to an incompetent, it is tantamount to ruining this team.
After a period of getting along, Wen Hao and him have no barrier.
When they went to the restaurant that night, Wen Hao and Ziting were also invited to the scene.
He Dongqing took the lead in leading the male team members to pick up the beer and drink it with clinking glasses.
Wen Hao didn't smoke or drink, so he replaced the wine with tea and went over with them.
At the dinner, the atmosphere of the Blue Birds team was warm and harmonious, which made people unconsciously want to fit in.
"We can't just target eight this time." He Dongqing held his wine glass and said, "Even if it's a point ranking competition, we have to try our best to get into a higher ranking!" ”
"Good!" Pu Gongze got up and raised his wine glass in response, "What Shonan University, Huaihai University, do them well!" ”
When the Blue Bird players were talking hotly, Wen Hao was eating silently, he was not suitable for this kind of lively occasion at all, so he could only eat his own things.
"Little white little white." Zi Ting, who was sitting next to Wen Hao, pulled a chair and leaned towards him again.
When he smelled the faint fragrance on the girl's body, Wen Hao felt a tightness in his heart: "What's the matter?" ”
"Shall we go to the game?" Zi Ting asked cautiously.
"Do you want to see it?" Wen Hao was surprised, "Do you have time?" ”
"Mm-hmm, the research I've been doing lately has come to an end!" Ziting nodded, "When it's okay, let's go and see what?" ”
"Since you want to go......" Wen Hao touched the bridge of his nose, although he said to the Blue Birds that he would not go to the game before the quarterfinals, if Zi Ting wanted to go to see it, he would not object.
"Yay!" Ziting cheered quietly.
Wen Hao smiled, now he has nothing, so Ziting is all he has, as long as she can be happy, he doesn't care.
The top 16 of the Skyrim Cup, unlike the auditions, has a national competition venue, it is a fixed-point competition, and this competition venue is the famous e-sports stadium in Tianjing City, at that time, the sixteen teams from all over the country will be away from here, for a ten-day points competition.
In the points competition, each team must play a match against the remaining fifteen teams, win one game to get one point, and the top eight teams in the final cumulative points ranking can enter the quarterfinals of the Skyrim Cup.
Last year, the Blue Jays narrowly missed a one-point run into eighth place and made it to the quarter-finals, but luck doesn't last forever and can't always be relied upon, so this year they have to aim even bigger.
Excluding those seeded teams, the rest of the teams are all unmissable, and every time they miss, they have to beat a stronger opponent to make up for the points, and then the pressure will become greater, so no matter what game it is, you have to give it your all and take it seriously.
The two teams that come out of the semi-finals will qualify for the national stadium, which is only available for the highest level sporting events, called the Glory Arena, and the Skyrim Cup, as a national college sports event, is naturally eligible to host its finals there.
The players who step into that arena will also receive an unbeatable honor - live TV!
It was a live broadcast in the real sense, and it was reported live by a national-level channel column, so the finals of the Skyrim Cup are also the dreams of countless young e-sports players.
All the members of the Blue Birds, even if they didn't say it on the surface, they could still know from their expressions that each of them was extremely yearning for the final stage in their hearts.
"Don't worry, you'll be able to do it!" After Yu Yongliang drank a few glasses of beer, he rarely put down his stereotypical face and said sensationally, "Because you are all my students!" ”
"Woo, Teacher Yu!"
Everyone was grateful.
Being in such an atmosphere, Wen Hao, who has never experienced university life, unconsciously has a little yearning.
If his mother hadn't died, would he have become a part of this group of dreamers?
After that, in order to be able to participate in the event more conveniently, the members of the Blue Bird team, under the leadership of Yu Yongliang, settled in the official hotel provided by the Skyline Cup event, which is specially opened for e-sports players, so all kinds of electronic facilities are readily available, and daily training can be carried out there.
The Blue Birds team went out, and Wen Hao's three-day coaching work came to an end.
In the Tianji Internet Cafe, Lin Junyue became a resident guest, although he did not participate in the game, but he was still nominally an official member of the Blue Bird team, so when the Blue Birds took a leave of absence from the event, he also got a small long vacation.
He and Ling Yu became more and more enthusiastic about the assembly of the team, and the two of them went to distant places every once in a while to find new members, and even once, Ling Yu took two days off, and then the two of them went directly to Zhonghai City (the second largest e-sports city in the country except Tianjing City) by high-speed rail, but unfortunately, in the end, they still returned in vain.
Wen Hao was alone in the Internet café, and when he had time, he helped them deal with the chores of the Heavenly Trace Knights.
Since winning the second world mission, the Celestial Trace Knights have become more prosperous in the novice village, compared to the top ten guilds, in the final analysis, it is because of his proximity to the people, the threshold for entering the Celestial Trace Knights is not as high as the major guilds, plus it is a team composed of players in the true sense of the word (at least nominally for now).
The daily membership applications are countless, and they are even more exaggerated than after the snake tribe.
Then, with Zi Ting's strong financial support, the Celestial Trace Knights successfully advanced to a large guild of 500 people, but it was still in short supply, so they could only start to raise the threshold and make trade-offs.
Relying on the other side of the flower and Mu Tong alone, they can't review the daily membership application, but they are afraid of missing out on any new stars with unlimited potential, so Wen Hao can only help them share some of the pressure.
"It seems like we're going to have some professional administrators."
One night, Wen Hao muttered to himself when he felt his head swell.
Once the group grows, it needs professional management talents to help restrain the discipline of the group and increase the sense of belonging of the members.
But after all, Wen Hao knows that this is impossible, hiring professional managers, so who will pay for this salary? This is the limit of the player's guild, because it can't devote itself to it, so it is ultimately inferior to the club's operating guild with a beneficial nature.
Take one step at a time, Wen Hao can only do this.
At around 9 o'clock, he received a text message from Zi Ting, the content of which was a very concise line: Tomorrow, watch the game!
Wen Hao replied with a smile: Roger.
Then he walked to Ling Yu, who was sitting in a row with Lin Junyue, and said, "I'll go out to watch the game tomorrow, and I may come back later in the evening, you can help me top it." ”
"Race?" When Ling Yu heard this word, he seemed to be touched by something, and his mind suddenly lit up, and he high-fived Lin Jun and said to Lin Junyue, "That's right, let's go watch the game!" ”
"Are you interested?" Lin Junyue asked.
"No!" Ling Yu got up excitedly and said, "Why didn't I think that we could follow the example of those clubs!" ”
"Let's dig for new stars in the Skyrim Cup!"
