At three o'clock in the afternoon, there are still three hours before the Scorpio Cup round of 16 starts at 6 o'clock in the evening.

In the room of the hotel, some of the people of the Great Wall team were lying on the bed to rest and rest, some were leaning on the sofa and playing with their mobile phones boredly, and some turned on the TV and changed the channel one by one according to the remote control.

As the time drew closer to the start of the game, the initial cheerful and relaxed atmosphere in the room became a little quieter and more solemn.

After all, this is already in the round of 16, and it is one step closer to the championship trophy, which also means that every step must be taken carefully and must not be overlooked.

Otherwise, it will be a direct elimination and a gray way home.

And this kind of result is by no means what any of the people in the room of the Great Wall Clans want to see.

But it's one thing to be cautious, but the strength of the opponent is not something they can decide.

Although everyone was optimistic about this round of 16-in-8 knockouts, and the group distribution they drew was quite ideal, after all, the teams that could reach the top 16 of the Scorpio Cup would never be half weak, and they were all strong teams from more than a dozen cities in East China Province that had passed three rounds of knockout rounds and qualified.

Therefore, even if it is their opponent tonight, the strength of the frozen team should definitely not be underestimated.

At this moment, even Mao Zi, who had just sworn that "I will blow up the other side at night", said a little unconfidently:

"Hey...... Tonight's round shouldn't be a problem, right? ”

Brother Liu glanced at Maozi angrily: "Can you say something auspicious?"

Mao Zi looked entangled: "No, I'm just worried, will we not adapt to their keyboard and mouse configuration at that time, and then we won't be able to play 100% of our strength......"

Ah Chuan shook his head: "People's keyboards and mice must be the same standard competitive configuration as before, besides, if we really can't adapt to it, they may not be able to get used to where to go." ”

Maozi scratched his head: "Hey, damn, then I'm not worried...... Eh, do you think you're going to ...... then?"

Before the words fell, Lao Jiao on the side couldn't listen anymore, so he interrupted directly and complained: "Where are there so many accidents, how can you clean the crow's mouth at this time, there will really be a problem at that time, you will take the blame?" ”

Mao Zi obediently stopped talking, but he couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "Aren't I just worried about the problem......

……

A few people from the team were chatting here, and at the other end of the room, Lin Xiao, who was sitting at the table, was holding an English word book and memorizing the words, and halfway through the memorization, he closed the book again and looked at Jiang Ran:

"Eh, how was your last mock exam?"

The event was approaching, and Jiang Ran was also stunned for a moment by Lin Xiao's unrelated sentence that suddenly came out, and then replied: "Generally, the age is in the early 100s." ”

Lin Xiao nodded understandingly, and commented: "Oh, that's not bad, by the way, where are you going to take the college entrance examination?" ”

Jiang Ran thought for a while and said, "I don't want to be too far away from home, it should be in the province, maybe I mainly consider the university here in S City." ”

Lin Xiao was happy to hear it: "That's just right, it's about the same as my plan!" ”

He did have reason to be happy.

Because although he and Jiang Ran are both in the same place and a high school now, they usually spend a lot of time together when they meet, but after the college entrance examination, if one goes to the north and the other stays in the south, then their team will automatically fall apart.

After all, this is no longer the era when the NO team only played online games and never appeared offline, a professional team, if even the players can't get together in reality, let alone play professional games.

And according to Jiang Ran's current answer, the two of them should still have a good chance to be in the same city or even the same university at that time, so Lin Xiao's mid-laner candidates for this team can finally continue to maintain stability, and there are unlikely to be accidents.

"Eh, have you figured out what to fill in and what major to volunteer?" Lin Xiao asked with interest, and pulled Jiang Ran is endless introduction to the experience: "My family wanted me to take the Fudan exam before, but the top 20 in the Fudan period is not stable, but in fact, Jiaotong University is not bad, and the admission score will be lower......

Jiang Ran was a little dazed by Lin Xiao, and there was also a feeling of time and space confusion-

Shouldn't they be discussing the upcoming Scorpio Cup match, analyzing and studying the tactics of the Frozen Squad and how to deal with it, why does it feel like they're back in school and listening to the teacher's speech?

Unable to hold back in his heart, Jiang Ran interrupted Lin Xiao's gushing experience introduction and asked, "Aren't you worried about the competition later?" ”

The words were interrupted, Lin Xiao looked at Jiang Ran with some confusion, and asked rhetorically, "Are you worried?" ”

Jiang Ran hesitated and nodded slightly.

Lin Xiao swore an oath: "What's there to worry about, didn't I say it, the core of people's tactics revolves around the top singles, and the top single collapse will collapse the whole situation, and it will definitely be no problem if you seize this point to target." ”

Jiang Ran hesitated a little: "But ......"

What he wants to say is that even if these tactics are formulated, even if such a target is indeed effective in theory, there will still be too many variables in the actual combat on the field, and Lin Xiao said that he does not plan to play in the first game, then their entire Great Wall team will not have the most reliable and reliable backbone-

In this case, even Jiang Ran, who usually seems to have a calm personality and excellent psychological qualities, can't help but feel a little unconfident in his heart.

However, before Jiang Ran finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Xiao waving his hand indifferently: "Hey, it's nothing, don't get entangled so much, if you are too entangled, it will affect the performance of the state......

The corners of Jiang Ran's mouth twitched, and he smiled helplessly.

This kind of thing is true, and it sounds easy, but it is still difficult to put it on yourself and overcome this kind of psychological problem......

"I'll go discuss tactics with Maozi again."

Dropping such a sentence, Jiang Ran got up and walked towards the sofa coffee table at the other end of the room.

And looking at the back of Jiang Ran walking away, Lin Xiao also shook his head, and said in his mouth: "Sure enough, psychological literacy is still a big problem...... With this worry, how good it would be to memorize more words and prepare for the next mock test......"

"Well, next mock exam—"

Subconsciously repeating it, Lin Xiao felt as if he had neglected to forget something again.

Yan Sù thought about it seriously, and finally he gave up with a sigh: "Alas, my memory is really getting worse and worse......"

……

In the evening, half past five.

Qian Youlu looked at the pointer time on his watch, and looked up at the team members in the room: "It's almost, let's go." ”

"Let's go!" Brother Liu was the first to get up.

Then the rest of the people, including Lin Xiao, also stood up one after another.

Mao Zi, who regained his spirit and fighting spirit, screamed: "Brothers, give some strength, and win BO5 in three games today!" ”

At the same time, it was also in S City, in a dormitory building for women at East China University of Finance and Economics.

"Xiao Wu, why don't you go with me......"

Aya leaned against the door, looking pitifully at her roommate and girlfriend sitting at the table.

Qiao Xinwu waved his hand: "Don't go, today's top 16 only play the first two groups of AB, don't our school have to wait until tomorrow, then I'll go back tomorrow." ”

Aya argued: "But it is also appropriate to go and explore the strength of the other groups in advance!" Be prepared and plan ahead, right? ”

Qiao Xinwu laughed again: "Then this is also the task of the e-sports club team, I am a rookie, how can I have that heart." ”

Aya said, "Hey, so Chu He and Feng Mu also went...... It's good for you to come too, and it's lively when there are more people! ”

Saying that, her eyes rolled, and she smiled: "And Zheng Tian has also passed, when he called me before, he kept knocking on the side and asking if you are coming~"

Qiao Xinwu sighed: "That's why I don't want to go......"
