Chapter 1369: Whos the MVP?

Translator: Nomyummi Editor: Nomyummi

Liu Hao was killed?

Once everyone realized that this was true, they were all stunned.

That was absurd! Lin Feng was still holding on after being ganged up on for so long, but Liu Haos Absent Sun had been crushed by Su Mucheng on her own?

No one had expected that the 1v1 duels would be the first to end, so in this time, no matter if it was the live broadcast or the audiences attention, they were all focused on Lin Feng and Luo Jis 1v2s.

Lin Feng was forced into a 1v2, while Luo Ji had the initiative for his 1v2. This indirect face off between the two seemed to be coming to an end with Concealed Lights mana running out, but no one had ever expected that the 1v1 on the other side would see a result first.

How did Su Mucheng destroy Liu Hao so quickly?

The battle was tense and the live broadcast couldnt possibly replay that section. Everyone could only watch dumbly, as the battle raged on.

With Su Muchengs Dancing Rain back, she helped Fang Rui and Mo Fan turn their battle into a 3v1 even as she sent some firepower support towards Luo Jis side of things. The situation immediately turned, and soon enough, the face off ended with Doubtful Demons death. Instantly, the 5v5 situation became a 5v3, and Wind Howls Cleric hadnt even managed to rush over yet.

It was over.

That was what everyone was thinking. Wind Howl had lost two people at once, so man to man wasnt an option anymore. Fight as a team? Could Wind Howl beat Happy with a number disadvantage? Even if Happy didnt have Ye Xiu, they had proven their strength as a team in the three consecutive rounds of Ye Xiu-less team competitions. A team that could fight Thunderclaps to the bitter end, who dared underestimate them?

They were going to lose...

A lifeless silence engulfed Wind Howls home stadium.

This loss was a crisis for Wind Howl. With this result, they might fall to the same number of points as Hundred Blossoms, meaning that theyd both have to fight for that extra boost in points in the last round. With the tiebreaker in their favor, Wind Howl wasnt afraid of tying in points, but if they had even a one point disadvantage, then theyll be kicked out of the playoffs.

How is Hundred Blossoms doing against Tyranny? Li Yibo asked after this problem for all those who were curious.

Er, its still ongoing. Pan Lin looked over the information sent over from the other stadium.

Ah! Pan Lin suddenly cried out after looking more closely at the contents, Theyre in the lead. Team Hundred Blossoms is currently in the lead in terms of numbers. They managed to get the advantage in numbers in their home game.

An advantage in numbers was generally how team competitions were judged while ongoing. If the other side couldnt mitigate this imbalance in time, then the final result would be exactly what they didnt want to see.

If Hundred Blossoms wins, then theyll be tied with Wind Howl in the final round, Li Yibo noted.

The match between 301 Degrees and Seaside is about to end. 301 Degrees should be able to win without much trouble, Pan Lin continued.

Then 301 Degrees will be 2 points ahead of Hundred Blossoms and Wind Howl, Li Yibo concluded. And the other matches?

Thunderclap currently has the advantage in numbers as well, Pan Lin replied.

It seems like they really do have a chance to beat Samsara! Li Yibos tone was filled with admiration.

If so, then Happy and Thunderclap will both have a 7 point advantage in the last round, Pan Lin said.

But they still shouldnt let down their guard! Especially Happy, their opponent for the last round is 301 Degrees. 301 Degrees only has a 2 point lead. Theyd definitely go all out in the last round. If Happy really does slip up and lose by a little too much, and if Hundred Blossoms and Wind Howl manage to win big, they might be left behind! Li Yibo said.

The... the chances of that are a little too low... Pan Lin said.

Ha. Its true that there are a lot of requirements to meet, but Happy really cant let down their guard. In contrast, Thunderclaps last opponent is Miracle. I think theyre completely in the safe zone now, Li Yibo said.

The twos discussion was already on the next round, not giving any attention to the ongoing match. In their eyes, Wind Howl, down two people, had no way of turning the tides. The match was already at its end.

However, Wind Howl clearly didnt want to give up. After a moment of silence, the in-venue audience exploded with cheers and shouts of encouragement. On the field, Tang Hao and Zhao Yuzhe werent the kind of people who gave up when they fell behind. They were still giving it their all, trying to use their skill to overturn the match.

However, Happy had become cautious, their entire team drawing back, heading towards the support zones and clearly aiming to switch in their healer. With Wind Howls disadvantage in numbers, they couldnt stop Happys retreat even with their Clerics arrival.

Yet, once they arrived at the support zones, Happy didnt directly switch their players, they first set a trap. When Wind Howl arrived in their relentless pursuit, they were struck full force by Concealed Lights final Elemental Beast King Formation.

The requirements for activating the Elemental Beast King Formation was to have all four summon beasts on the field and standing in the required positions. After activation, the four summon beasts combative ability would dramatically increase. Thunder Eagle and Young Wyverns thunderbolts and fireballs shot out like bullets from a machine gun. The chill that spread when Frost Wolf opened its maws and howled spread a layer of frost across the field. Spirit Cat, originally very agile, had its speed raised another level, its form darting from one place to the next leaving broken after images behind.

Being able to control such powerful summons was a delight for any Summoner, but this delight wouldnt continue on forever. The powered up four summon beasts still had health and could be killed, and their active time would be calculated according to the active time of the Elemental Beast King Formation. When the skill ended, the four summon beasts would all disappear. In addition, during the time the Elemental Beast King Formation was active, the summoning of the four summon beasts were deactivated. They couldnt be resummoned.

Luo Ji, an underestimated rookie Summoner, had become the star of this show. It was only after the Elemental Beast King Formation ended that An Wenyi and Little Cold Hands were switched in. Happy then fought steadily while Wind Howls Tang Hao and Zhao Yuzhe, unwilling to give up, continued to struggle. But their struggles were futile.

Alright, now Wind Howls last character, Tang Haos Demon Subduer, has fallen. In the end, Wind Howl still lost this team competition, Commentator Pan Lin announced.

With that, the results of this match are 4 to 6, Happy with a total of 244 points, while Wind Howl had 237. The two teams will enter the last round of the regular season with a seven point difference, Li Yibo said.

Coach Li, what do you think about this match? Pan Lin asked.

The match had finished and the results were out, meaning that Li Yibo was much freer to comment as he wished, Hm, well, although Ye Xiu didnt fight, they clearly made ample preparations for this battle. Their strategy was executed very well, and a great counter to Wind Howls playstyle. They managed to grasp the initiative from the very start. Indeed. Team Happys Luo Ji was the greatest surprise and delight of the match. It was truly unexpected, but also a very reasonable coincidence, Pan Lin agreed.

Thats right. On the other hand, for Wind Howl, neglecting to consider Luo Ji was a fatal mistake they made at the very beginning. No matter what kind of player the opponent is, just the fact that there was a Summoner meant that Wind Howl should utilize the appropriate countermeasures. Though Wind Howl only knew of Happys player switch when the match was about to begin, they should have adjusted accordingly, but they didnt. They didnt even think to counter Luo Jis Summoner until halfway through, and afterwards, they didnt execute that counter well either, Li Yibo analysed.

Despite that, Wind Howl actually still had a chance, right? Pan Lin asked.

Yes. Even if Luo Jis Summoner dismantled their man to man playstyle, this dismantling came at a huge cost to Luo Ji. Using their willpower and individual abilities, they might not have been able to break through Luo Jis summon creature wall, but they could deplete Concealed Lights mana. Unfortunately, thats when a major problem appeared. I believe everyone noticed this, Li Yibo said.

Liu Hao, right? Pan Lin questioned.

Yes. Just as Wind Howls entire team was holding on, waiting for Concealed Lights mana to be completely depleted, Liu Hao fell to Su Mucheng. This is another immense surprise in this match. In reality, Wind Howls eventual loss was because of this one event. If it wasnt for this, then even with Happys arrangements, Wind Howl would still have a chance. However, Liu Haos defeat pretty much killed all of Wind Howls hopes, Li Yibo explained.

Uh huh. We still have some time left so, next, lets look back at what really happened and how Liu Hao was killed so quickly by Su Mucheng. As Pan Lin talked, the shot in the broadcast switched to Dancing Rains barrage against Absent Sun.

As the battle raged, Pan Lin and Li Yibo waited to comment, and the blasts of the Launchers cannon resounded in the audiences ears.

Su Muchengs style is very resolute this time. What do you think, Coach Li? Pan Lin finally spoke up.

Yes, weve never seen such resolution from her. Su Mucheng accurately grasped the match point. Look, she had completely stopped the wide range support shed usually provide in matches, focusing all her attention on Liu Haos Absent Sun. Her performance is impeccable and Liu Hao was completely suppressed. He was completely helpless, and she crushed him, otherwise how else would he have died so fast? Over there, Lin Fengs Thief fighting 1v3, then 1v2, had managed to hold on for longer! Li Yibo commented. Liu Haos performance definitely wasnt the best this time! Pan Lin exclaimed.

Indeed. Being steamrolled like that in a team competition, never mind in a match like this, in any match, it would definitely break the balance of the situation, Li Yibo said.

Su Muchengs performance was truly exceptional, Pan Lin sighed in admiration.

I agree! Shes given this match a dilemma, and Im curious about it as well. Will the MVP of the match be given to Luo Ji or Su Mucheng? Li Yibo wondered aloud.

I think itll probably go to Su Mucheng. After all, it was her exceptional performance that allowed them to grasp the match point and ascertain Happys victory. Otherwise, with just Luo Jis playstyle, the way the match would go would still be uncertain! Pan Lin explained.

However, Luo Ji played a crucial role in breaking the balance on the field as well. In addition, hes a rookie that hasnt played many matches. I think the Alliance will take that into account, too, so I think itll be Luo Ji, Li Yibo countered.

Then, Coach Li, lets make a bet. Whoever loses has to treat the other to a midnight snack, yeah? Pan Lin joked. This clearly wasnt anything harmful.

Alright then. The statistical data should be announced soon, Li Yibo played along.

Lets use this time to take a look at the other matches, Pan Lin suggested.
