    In the group stage, Long Sky’s momentum was repeatedly stopped by Dynasty and Fried Eggnts with Fish. Having expectations on a team was a double-edged sword; when Long Sky performed poorly, the attention from the media would work against them as they sang the song of pessimism for the chances of Long Sky making it through the group stage.


    As an experienced team, Long Sky had a strong resilience to pressure. In thest few matches of group A, the number of viewers again broke the record, but in the match between Long Sky and Dynasty, King Admiral single handedly took down four opponents in the group one on ones and secured first ce in the group bracket. Thus, Long Sky fell to fourth ce.


    Under pessimism and doubts, thest round began, and Long Sky’s opponent was Fried Eggnts with Fish, which was in second ce in the bracket. There was arge difference in points, and in order for Long Sky to qualify, they had topletely dominate the match and take as many points as they could. However, Fried Eggnts with Fish was also a powerhouse, and there was no hope that Long Sky could make it out of group stage.


    But just when the audience thought that Long Sky was going to be eliminated, Hao Tian and his team pulled off a miracle team fight, which aced the entire enemy team. No mistakes could be found during the one on ones, and they walked over the enemy. The Three Chariots—Dancing Fish Dragon, Perfume Bear, and Sun Eggnt—were dominated by Long Sky without knowing what happened.


    On the live stream, the screen was exploding with intensity in every frame. Fans from both teams were on the edge of their seats, as if their hearts were going to burst. Every time there was a turn of events, the audience would scream with excitement and nervousness.


    The points of Long Sky skyrocketed, and in an instant, they had the same points with the Fried Eggnts with Fish. The final oue was determined on the team fight, and Long Sky surpassed their opponent and qualified for the next stage as second ce in the group.


    “Long Sky pulled a reverse sweep!”


    “In the fight of powerhouses, Fried Eggnts with Fish was destroyed!”


    “Long Sky promoted to the next stage by the width of a hair”


    “Fried Eggnts with Fish was defeated with humiliation! Is this the end of a powerhouse?”


    “Competitions for group A havee to an end. Dynasty and Long Sky move on to the quarterfinals!”


    Long Sky’s unbelievableeback exploded in the forums. Fans of Long Sky were crying in tears as if it was a new year, and the tragic atmosphere and tone of the media quickly turned around; only words ofpliments were seen on the news, no matter how badly they had performed previously.


    Dynasty, Long Sky, and Fried Eggnts with Fish all held a press conference after the match. The reporters first congratted the winning teams, and the representatives of the two teams appreciated the congrattions. Both teams replied to the questions with cliché formalities, thanking the fans and those who supported them along the way.


    In the final session of the press conference, the reporter gave the microphone to Fried Eggnts with Fish and asked, “Would you like to share anything after your defeat?”


    The representative for Fried Eggnts with Fish froze and said, “We performed poorly in thest match, and we did not meet our expectations. During the match, we made a lot of mistakes, and we could have done better. Long Sky is a strong opponent, and everyone witnessed how...”


    This reply had been prepared before the press interview. They first started with acknowledging their mistakes and tried to learn from it, then they went ahead and apologized to the fans. This response was a standard procedure if one lost a game, so the reporter could only stay quiet, and he did not even bother writing any notes.


    Suddenly, the team leader, Sun Eggnt, stood up. Even though he was known as thest of the Three Chariots, he was the leader of the three people.


    Sun Eggnt interrupted the response and grabbed the microphone from the representative. He faced the confused reporters and stared at Long Sky. “I don’t want to say these fluffy words like ‘we tried our best’. We lost, and that’s an undeniable fact, but I can’t let it go. I will win the title back next time. Hao Tian, since we’ve both entered the quarterfinals in the individual bracket, if you see me, prepare to die.”


    Hao Tian did not back down. “The result won’t change no matter how many times you challenge me.”


    Both of them started at each other, and neither backed down.


    Such exchanges were the ones that were exciting to write about. The reporters smiled and quickly recorded it.


    Dynasty, who was on the side, nced at the two. It was ironic that the first seed team was just a side character.


    Second Prince clenched his fists and said, “The reporters are ignoring us now. I might as well go challenge...”


    King Admiral was struggling to keep his eyes open as if he was sleeping. He pped Second Prince on the back of his head and said, “Don’t find trouble.”


    Second Prince pushed away his hand and replied with annoyance, “Stop hitting me, you freak. Why are you bitching about me joining the challenge?”


    “B*stard, you are not even in the semifinals!” King Admiral’s poke through the heart of Second Prince.


    Second Prince’s face turned red, and he stared at King Admiral with anger, as if he was going to kick him in crouch.


    Second Prince felt that he was being mocked. King Admiral had not only advanced into the next stage in individual bracket, but he was also first seed and had the most points. He had been invited to the All Stars, while Second Prince had been eliminated. That was why Second Prince was upset.


    At the same time, Temple of God also had their own press conference. They were lucky as they had been allocated into a group without muchpetition. They had also been invited to the All Stars games.


    Li Ge imed that they would bring trophy and pride to the country as they headed to the internationalpetition.


    Temple of God imed that they were the strongest and that they were the dragon’s head of powerhouses. Li Ge walked on the path of China’s representative team. Even though he was ranked second of China’s yers, the King Admiral was always timid and low-key with a casual appearance. On the other hand, Li Ge was handsome and strong, and they had the same poprity with tons of fans.


    There was a significant number of females within Li Ge’s fanbase, while most of the fans for King Admiral were adult men. The fight between there fanbases was also interesting, and it was usually one of the biggest shows in the scene. As long as Li Ge and King Admiral fought against each other, this would be the extra show that would for sure show up.


    The teams who had qualified for yoffs all had their press conferences, and all sorts of statements were made by the teams. Some were extremely confident that they would win the finals, while some were humbler and more reserved. These scenes sure showed the variety of stories that one could see in the professional scene.


    And now, the schedule for finals was announced.


    “Top eight of group bracket: Five Chinese teams—Dynasty, Long Sky, Thunder Storm, Thunder Storm, Mystic Nine. Three foreign teams—Son of Wind, Beast, Golden Orange.


    “Top 16 of individual bracket: King Admiral, Sun Eggnt, Hao Tian, Li Ge, Frenzied Sword, Rainy Kim...”


    Seeing the list, Han Xiaoughed as if it was harvest season.


    <i>Hehe, quite a lot of them are also yers that were famous in my previous world.</i>Han Xiao smiled. The other reason he had followed the professional scene was that it was a venue for him to pick out skillful yers.


    Anyone who got into the Aquamarinepetitive scene was a talent. In some nicer words, Han Xiao was preparing to bring natural talents to explore the gxy. And this time, he would not only bring a few people—he would bring an entire fleet of yers as his assistants.


    Because they would always revive after death, yers were an extremely useful tools. Even though they were a bit weak, but there would be room for improvement in the new version. Even though robots could be used as gunpowder, one still needed money to make them.


    yers were free!


    Han Xiao was nning to start a family by taking the younger talents. He already had a n.


    To create his own base!


    In Version 1.0, yers did not have a way to step into the gxy, but if Han Xiao could provide the transportation, even the professional yers would be shocked. Han Xiao had quite a lot of missions toplete, but there would not be much if he spread out the workload. This would limit the number of yers that he could nurture. However, if the yers were able to travel into the gxy and be exposed to the opportunities around the universe, there would be endless missions, and it would definitely be attractive to yers. This way, Han Xiao could bypass the threshold of missions that Han Xiao could take.


    The yers would be at an advantage if they were first to start their adventure in the gxy. No one would not be jealous of the opportunity. At the same time, Han Xiao could again restate his presence and make headlines again.


    The chosen yers would slowly be closer to Han Xiao voluntarily and create a sense of acknowledgement. Han Xiao already had a blueprint for his n.


    The number of yers that he could take still depended on the situation.


    Inside his secret base, Han Xiao got up from his sofa, reached the armory, and entered the password.


    The golden wall folded and opened up. A transparent pir was in the room, and it was filled with gel and liquid. Inside the pir was a brand-new Amphiptere suit.


    “It’s time to go.”


    Han Xiao pressed the button, and the gel was washed out of the pir. The surface of the Amphiptere mechanical suit gave a cold shine under the light.
