After just two rounds of practice, Gao Lin and the others set off for Dongjin City.
The quarter-finals only opened at 4:30 in the afternoon, the opening time lasted for half an hour, and the official competition did not start until 5:00.
The promotion method for the quarter-finals is also a wave-3 system, that is, best of three games.
Every day, each team only competes in one game, and those who successfully advance will enter the semi-finals.
The semi-finals were also played in a wave-3 system, and the rules were the same as those of the quarter-finals. It was not until the finals that the b05 system was implemented.
The entire competition period lasts for one week.
Since this is the most important game since the founding of the Huayi Club, the old director of the club, Rong Shichang, attaches great importance to it and directly chartered a luxury bus for almost everyone in the Huayi Club to go to Dongjin City to support Gao Lin. The members of Team 1 cheered for each other. At the same time, Rong Shichang also announced that if Gao Lin successfully advanced to the semi-finals, each of them would be rewarded with 5,000 yuan. If they entered the top three, each of them would be rewarded with 10,000 yuan. If they won the championship, each of them would be rewarded with 10,000 yuan. 100,000.
After hearing Rong Shichang's reward plan, all the members of Team 1 were so excited that they howled with excitement. There is a saying that goes well: all spiritual rewards are not as tangible as material rewards. Thousands of words of praise are not worth it at all. Thousands of dollars in bonuses.
After more than an hour's drive, everyone finally arrived at Wanlian Entertainment City, the venue for the Dongjin City Quarterfinals.
The bus slowly drove into the entrance of the entertainment city. Through the window, Gao Lin noticed that a large group of people had gathered outside, blocking the entire road.
Various banners and signboards were erected in the crowd, most of which were team names. Of course, there were also many players' names, such as 'Song Qiaoyu, I love you', 'Wind God is invincible', 'Wuya is the best', 'Lu' Ye, pure man' and so on.
"Haha, Master Lu, look over there." Just as he was about to look away from the crowd, Lin Yang next to him slapped him.
Gao Lin followed Lin Yang's gaze and saw that in the distance, several people were holding up a large statue. In the statue was his Q version, but he saw that he was riding an angry boar in the Q version. In his hand He held up an extra-large corn cob, and in front of his wide-open mouth were the words "Who dares to jerk off with me?"
And next to these people, a few people erected a large portrait, but inside it was the Q version of Xiao Zifeng. Xiao Zifeng in the portrait was facing him sideways, holding an extra-large banana in his left hand, and holding out a "Hero" in his right hand. The useless stick in the game "League" also carries a big eggplant on its back. The narration reads, "Master Lu, you picked up the wrong weapon. This is the useless stick."
"Hahaha." Everyone in the bus seemed to have seen these two Q-version images, and the people in the bus burst into laughter.
"Who are these guys? They are so damn creative." Zhang Weiyong said with a smile.
"Who else could it be? It must be a gay fan of Lu Ye and Fengshen." Su Jiantong also smiled.
"I can't tell that Lu Ye's popularity has soared now." Yang Tianshui said.
Gao Lin shook his head and smiled. Just as he was about to say something, he saw a large group of people rushing over from both sides of the road, chasing the bus and shouting all the way. They looked extremely crazy. Seeing this scene, Gao Lin couldn't help but think of the previous time. During the City Championship, I saw the Daga luxury bus entering the entertainment city. It was so similar to now.
I really didn’t expect that they would grow from a weak and weak team to a new and powerful team. Moreover, their footsteps have not stopped yet, and they are still running towards higher and further directions, although I don’t know if there will be an end. , but from now on, they are full of hope.
It was only a few hundred meters away, but it took the bus nearly 20 minutes to enter the parking lot near the entertainment city.
After getting off the car, Gao Lin saw a large group of e-sports reporters surrounding them, firing long guns and short cannons into their faces.
Seeing this situation, a group of club executives and second-team players could only act as bodyguards for Gao Lin and others, surrounding them in the middle.
"Hello, Mr. Lu, what do you think of our opponent this time?" The reporters crowded around and asked Lu Hai, who was walking in front.
"The opponent is very strong, but we are not weak either. We will try our best to win the game." Lu Hai responded while opening the way. Today, he feels more satisfied and proud than ever before. He thought back then, he was just a fish. The coach of the fat team, not to mention that no one pays attention to him, but also suffers from the glare of others. Unexpectedly, now he has made a 360-degree turnaround, and almost suddenly became the most dazzling professional team coach in the e-sports circle. First, those who used to ridicule, despise and look down on him changed their appearance and looked at him with admiration and envy.
"Coach Lu, can you reveal your lineup for the game later?" a female reporter asked.
"I'm sorry, there is nothing to disclose. We are playing the strongest lineup." Lu Hai replied in a very vague way.
"Who are your strongest lineups?" a male reporter asked.
"Every one of our players is the strongest, so no matter who is playing in the game later, they will be our strongest lineup." Lu Hai replied wittily.
"Are you confident of advancing to the semi-finals?" asked another male reporter.
"As a new team, we lack everything except confidence," Lu Hai replied.
"Excuse me……"
Amid reporters' frenzied questioning, Gao Lin and the first team members walked into the rear hall, while the club's senior officials and first- and second-line players walked towards the viewing hall.
Under the leadership of the competition staff, Gao Lin and others entered a team lounge.
Just as he was about to sit down on the chair, Gao Lin heard his cell phone ringing in his trouser pocket.
Gao Lin took out his cell phone and looked at it, and found that it was Han Weiwei's number.
"Jiao Lu, let me answer the phone." Gao Lin said to Lu Hai.
Lu Hai nodded.
After walking out of the lounge, Gao Lin pressed the answer button.
"Senior, are you here?" A clear and sweet voice came from the mobile phone at the right moment.
"Well, we just arrived." Gao Lin nodded, heard several girls' voices coming from the phone, and immediately asked, "Where are you."
"In the parking lot, I'm getting into the car with Sister Lily and the others to watch the game."
"You didn't threaten me, right?" Gao Lin chuckled.
"I didn't, they came here on their own." The voice was soft and soft, which made Gao Lin feel tired.
After a while, he turned around and said, "Be careful."
"Yes, so are you, senior." Qingling's pleasant voice responded.
"Girl Wei, can't you leave your senior for a second?" Sun Lili's voice came from the mobile phone.
"I'm sorry, this girl has been bewitched." This was Meng Zhu's voice.
