A group of people wearing pure cotton short-sleeved shirts with red as the base and black and gold edges gathered in the waiting hall. There was a big logo on the back of everyone's clothes, with a shield as the base and two swords like one.
The cross type is also inlaid on the shield, and on both sides of the shield are half devil and half angel wings. In the middle there is a large a2club and the Chinese Oathkeepers Blade Tower Athletic Club.
"Okay, today is our first time out of Beijing to participate in a competition, please stay alert! Don't embarrass OK! Come back with the TM championship!" Xu Yunlong started mobilizing.
Unfortunately, the effect didn't seem to be very good. Only Qi Lin and Zhu Quehuang screamed excitedly.
"Oh oh oh oh! This is my first time to go out so far!" Zhu Quehuang was so excited that he jumped up and down like a monkey.
"Isn't it a shame?" Ye Qiu rolled his eyes at him and distanced himself from him, with an expression on his face that said he didn't recognize this guy.
"God b God~ I want to live in a room with you!" Qi Lin waved his hand as if making a speech.
"Damn it, Lin, you are actually..." Ye Qiu's eyes widened, as if he understood.
"Go away, what are you thinking about? I just want to see how God B thinks. Isn't it said in the art of war that you know yourself and the enemy? I have to understand God B in depth before I can figure out a way to defeat him." Qi Lin looked serious.
.
"...I think it's better to practice more to become more practical." Bai Hu pushed up his glasses.
"Shut up, stupid tiger." Qi Lin completely changed Bai Hu's name to stupid tiger after the last shopping incident. Although he wanted to refute it, Bai Hu, as a top science student, was really bad at language.
I don't know how to refute Qi Lin's sharp teeth. I can only snort every time and deliberately pretend to ignore it.
"Oh oh oh oh oh!! I want to eat Shanghai Xiao Long Bao!!!" He didn't listen to the conversation between several people at all. Zhu Quehuang was still there minding his own excitement.
Xu Yunlong looked at the chaotic situation in front of him, and the words "haha" floated through his heart. He sighed helplessly.
"It's time to queue up!" Xiao Qingyue, who had collected the tickets, and Leng Muxue, who was carrying breakfast, both walked to the team gathering point, and they distributed the things to everyone.
"Okay, let's talk about it after we get on the bus." Xiao Qingyue glanced at the time...Ah! Found it!" Zhu Quehuang stared at his ticket, cried out after finding his seat, and then excitedly wrapped the bag
He stuffed it into the luggage rack above, then sat down on the chair and twisted, "The chair is so soft! It's more comfortable than a hard seat!"
"Have you never been on a high-speed train?" Ye Qiu sat next to him after putting away his luggage. Ye Qiu's seat was row 13b.
"No! I've only been on a train." Zhu Quehuang answered simply, "You said that trains can run faster than airplanes. Is that true?"
Ye Qiu glanced at Zhu Quehuang with an "idiot" expression on his face and ignored him.
"That's impossible. You won't drive at full speed unless necessary." Bai Hu pushed up his glasses and started the elite preaching mode.
"Eh? Why aren't you and I seated together?" Seeing that his ticket was in row 15, Qi Lin shouted unhappily, "Change seats!"
With that said, Qi Lin walked up to an unknown passerby who was already sitting next to Xu Yunlong. He said with a smile: "Hey, can you change seats with me?"
"Huh?" The passerby looked confused, "I prefer to be the one sitting on the aisle."
"Change your position." Qi Lin got closer and closer to the passers-by. The smile on his face became frightening, "If you don't change, I will curse you all the way~"
"Is there something wrong with you?" The passerby didn't understand what was going on.
"It's best to change places with me. Otherwise..." Qi Lin, still smiling, leaned into the passerby's ear and said something.
As a result, the passerby turned pale with fright. He grabbed his bag and quickly changed places with Qi Lin.
After putting away his large luggage, Xu Yunlong walked back to his seat and found that the original passerby was actually Qi Lin. He was a little surprised.
"Changed places?"
"Yes, that uncle is very nice." Qi Lin smiled innocently.
Xu Yunlong didn't say much and sat in his seat.
"Ah, wallet!" At this moment, Ye Qiu shouted, jumping up from his seat and touching his pockets everywhere, "What should I do, what should I do, my wallet is missing!!"
"Ah! That!" After hearing Ye Qiu's voice, Zhu Quehuang also helped to look for it, but after searching around and finding nothing, he could only bend down, looked sideways under the seat, and found a bulging thing.
.
"I was scared to death..." After taking the wallet that Zhu Quehuang handed to him, Ye Qiu let out a long breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Is there nothing left behind?" Xiao Qingyue stood up with a headache, "Have you got your tickets, your ID card, participation certificate, and your own keyboard and mouse, are you all ready?"
"Oh!!" everyone replied.
"Whoever doesn't bring it will not be allowed to play." Xiao Qingyue smiled softly.
"oh……"
After saying this, the first thing everyone did was to start checking their belongings.
The destination of this trip is Shanghai.
The train ticket from Beijing to Shanghai costs more than 500. Of course, as a poor club, everyone should pay for the ticket. However, Team OK has always been very reasonable in deducting game bonuses.
Only 5% of the total prize money will be deducted from each competition, and the remaining five people participating in the competition will share it equally, and each person will give another 5% to the substitute.
So the club was very poor, but everyone's bonuses were very generous. So, Xiao Qingyue basically asked everyone to pay for their own car and room expenses. Of course, she and Leng Muxue also had to pay for themselves.
Yes, compared to the players, all their sources of income are Taobao stores, which minimizes everyone’s life pressure to the greatest extent.
"It's rare to go to Shanghai. If you really lose your wallet, you won't have money to eat local food!" Ye Qiu had obviously checked out the delicious food in Shanghai before going to Shanghai. He had already planned a break from the competition.
What to eat?
"I want it too, I want to eat it too!!" Zhu Quehuang raised his hand to show that he wanted to join, but soon tilted his head, blinked and asked, "What is our dish?"
"You don't even watch the tip of the tongue?" Ye Qiu said that he had no idea what Zhu Quehuang was thinking, and he didn't even watch such a good-looking movie as the tip of the tongue.
"Is the tip of the tongue famous? Beef tongue tip or pig tongue tip? Is it delicious? Duck tongue is quite delicious..." Zhu Quehuang began to pretend that he knew very well.
"I'm sorry, I don't really like to eat the tip of my tongue. I prefer to eat real meat than that kind of thing." Bai Hu also pushed up his glasses to express his position.
"What are you talking about! It's the tip of the tongue! Not the tip of the tongue!" Ye Qiu began to emphasize. But obviously the emphasis had no meaning, because Zhu Quehuang and Bai Hu still didn't understand what he was saying.
"Want to eat?" Xuanwu took out snacks from his bag and handed them to Xu Yunlong who was sitting in the middle.
"..." Xu Yunlong looked at the potato chips in Xuanwu's hand. After being silent for a while, he looked up at Xuanwu with expectation in his eyes. He sighed silently, reached out and patted Xuanwu's shoulder, "I'm sorry.
You..."
Because Xuanwu came out to work very early and basically didn't read any books, so he didn't have any fun activities like traveling with classmates or participating in graduation trips. When he was at the base, every time he relaxed and watched TV series
, whenever he sees an actor traveling together or something, Xuan Wu will not take his eyes away. Although his face is still pretending to be calm, he still can't hide his excitement.
So for this eight-person trip to Shanghai, Xuanwu prepared excitedly all night.
Although Xuanwu wanted to show that he was not so excited, he acted like running to the supermarket alone and buying a lot of snacks. It looked like he was too excited. However, due to Xuanwu's good face, everyone
They all just pretended not to see it.
Xu Yunlong especially wanted to call Cang Yan and ask. Didn't a few people from Xuanwu's mz work together? He remembered that mz had participated in competitions outside the province.
But none of this is important anymore.
Taking the potato chips handed over by Xuan Wu, Xu Yunlong calmly opened them and started eating.
"Hey, look, there's actually an empty seat. You bought the tickets and didn't even come to sit down. You're so rich." Ye Qiu touched his wallet and looked at the about seven or eight empty seats in front of them and said in a low voice.
"Maybe he missed the train." Bai Hu guessed.
"B God b God, what kind of game is the G League?"
At this time, Qi Lin was unwilling to be left alone and began to talk to Xu Yunlong.
"Didn't Qingyue make everything clear yesterday?" Xu Yunlong said while eating potato chips.
"I... was too sleepy and didn't hear clearly. Please tell me again." Qi Lin said with a smile.
Xu Yunlong glanced at him and didn't say much, but really started to introduce the G League.
"In fact, it is no different from ordinary games. The format is the same as the Asian Cup, but there are no foreign teams participating in the G League, only domestic teams. Anyone can sign up to participate. There are eight groups in total, and each group has a seed team.
We will directly participate in the group finals. We are the seed team in Group F, so we just went to Shanghai today. Those who played in the group stage already went there last week.
The G-League is a pure offline competition, and the group matches are all held offline. And they all use the same arena, but the arena is very big. There are eight competition areas, eight glass rooms, and 80 computers. You
Just go to the G League venue and you will know. Is there anything else you want to ask?"
"What about the format?"
"It is divided into solo and team. You can see this on the official website."
"I have a solo~~" Qi Lin's final voice dragged out for a long time.
Xu Yunlong finally understood the intention of Qi Lin's words. He wanted to play solo.
However, he did arrange Qi Lin's solo match. After all, soloing is also very demanding on physical and mental energy. If he continues to play in the team after playing solo, it will be really overwhelming.
The daily fan allocation for the G League is solo games in the morning and team games in the afternoon.
Anyone can register for the solo competition, and there is no quota limit, only time limit. There will be as many groups as there are people who sign up before the deadline.
Moreover, solo competition is not as good as a team competition. There is no concept of dividing into groups, it is just a big melee.
The start time of the solo match is also different. It is the second day after the group stage. It takes a whole day to carry out a bo1 one-kill single-elimination cycle. Win one game and you will get one point. After all the games are over, the top 8 will
Will enter the knockout round.
The top eight teams in the group stage will compete for the knockout rounds.
The knockout round is also a single-elimination round-robin, using a points system. The team competition is bo2, and the solo competition is bo3.
A team win will be worth two points, a draw will be worth one point. A loss will be worth no points. After the eight groups of round-robin matches, the top four will be selected and the cycle will continue. The final ranking of the top four will be the final ranking of the team.
The same rules apply to solos.
The knockout rounds begin. There are solo games in the morning and team games in the afternoon. There are four solo games a day and the same four games a day for the team.
So it is indeed not an easy game.
But for domestic teams, the G-League is an almost mandatory competition, even for S-level teams.
Because compared to the higher-end WPC or the second-tier WVW.G league, it is a non-level competition, and the level is only reflected in the seeded teams in the group stage.
For amateur players, the G-League is a place where they can compete with their favorite players, while for professional teams, the G-League is another place to discover new players compared to the Supernova competition.
Just like Tang Yi from SG, Yang Yuanyi from NF, or Hua Qingtian and Guo Shi from SY, they all came out through the G League stage.
So when Xiao Qingyue told him that he had received an invitation from the G-League to compete as a seed team, he agreed without even thinking about it. Baihu had already appeared in Supernova, and Qi Lin was already an internationally renowned player.
A strong player. Ye Qiu has participated in many second-tier games as the captain of Sy's second-tier team and has accumulated a lot of popularity. Needless to say, Xuanwu has a reputation of embracing all rivers, and every veteran Dota player doesn't know it.
Now, there is only one person in the team who needs to make his existence known to the whole country.
Zhu Quehuang.
It’s not that he wants to praise Zhu Quehuang, but he doesn’t want him to be buried under the halo of people in the team. That would be too cruel for a player. He is not sure whether Zhu Quehuang can withstand it when the time comes.
He can afford such pressure from public opinion. Therefore, his personal hope is that Zhu Quehuang can perform well in this G-League and become a blockbuster.
He still firmly believes that the young man he discovered is worthy of what he did. In this position, Zhu Quehuang has reached a point where he is satisfied.
Seeing Zhu Quehuang still talking excitedly to Ye Qiu and talking about what to eat in Shanghai, Xu Yunlong suddenly felt a little emotional.
Should we say that we have to accept old age?
Smiling, Xu Yunlong closed his eyes and waited for the five hours to pass.
"Oh!!! I know about the three-cut pork chop!!" Zhu Quehuang was still talking about Shanghai's famous dishes, "It is said that there are also sweet and sour pork and sweet and sour short ribs!"
"You've done a pretty good job of checking it out."
"I don't like sweets." Bai Hu pushed up his glasses and interrupted.
"Of course! I checked it all night!" Zhu Quehuang handed the notebook to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu flipped through it casually, and unexpectedly remembered that he wanted to eat all of them slowly. He also put a mark on the front to mark which ones he wanted to eat the most and which ones he wanted to eat the second.
"You are so free." Ye Qiu sighed sincerely.
"I don't like sweets." Seeing that the two people ignored him, Bai Hu pushed his glasses hard and amplified his voice.
But it seems that the sound is a bit too loud, and some of the voices are different?
"Eh?"
Bai Hu was stunned for a moment and looked to his side.
The people standing in the corridor also looked at him in surprise.
It’s actually Yang Yuanyi!
Behind Yang Yuanyi was Liang Yu.
Unexpectedly, NF actually took this train to Shanghai.
"Why are you here too?" Yang Yuanyi felt deeply disgusted after being surprised, "The air has been polluted by you."
"Then don't breathe." Qi Lin was the first to jump out, even though he didn't actually know who the person in front of him was. "Be polite, you can be beautiful or not, but you can't let your heart follow the appearance."
."
As soon as these words came out, even Xu Yunlong couldn't help but want to laugh.
Although Yang Yuanyi cannot be called ugly, he is far from handsome. Although everyone knows that it is immoral to comment on a person's appearance casually, Qi Lin expressed their feelings, including
The NF team members followed behind.
"Brother Long, you guys are taking this train too." Liang Yu felt a little surprised, "Long time no see."
"Long time no see." Xu Yunlong smiled.
"Who are you?" Qi Lin was a little unhappy. The person who can make Xu Yunlong answer must not be a simple character. "You look like you are very familiar with God B."
"Hello, you are Lin, I am the mid laner of 340, nf." Liang Yu introduced himself very gently.
"Ah! I know you, the one who lost to the Hand God in five minutes!" Qi Lin seemed to have remembered something and shouted directly.
Liang Yu's face darkened. Although he was still smiling, the corners of his mouth were already twitching.
"Qi Lin, stop talking." Xu Yunlong knew that Qi Lin couldn't control his mouth at all, so it was better to say less.
Although Qi Lin was a little reluctant, when Xu Yunlong opened his mouth, he could only shut his mouth.
Yang Yuanyi and Liang Yu arrived first, and then the first-line team members of NF also arrived in this car.
"I didn't expect Xiaotang to make a mistake. We are in car 8 and they are in car 4." Ma Buren muttered and walked over. After seeing everyone who was OK, his face obviously didn't look good.
Without saying a word, everyone in NF sat back in their seats.
Along the way, only two people, Zhu Quehuang and Qi Lin, were chattering there. Ye Qiu occasionally answered, while the others seemed to be wary of each other, remaining silent.
Finally, after five hours of long journey (although they were just doing it), the two teams, with a total of more than 20 people, arrived at Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station. (To be continued...)
ps: I went to CJ today and bought the captain’s figure in the mystery shop!!! As I said yesterday, counting from the 1st to the 31st, this figure will be given to the person who tips the most this month~~
