Hu Die Lan

Chapter 1342 Reasonableness

Mu Yu Chenfeng fell.

Wang Jiexi was just that kind of person; at critical moments, he never dropped the ball. He would lose, but he never made people lose faith in him. So even though he now had to face more than one opponent, even though the last time he faced Happy he had to face nearly three opponents, the Tiny Herb players and fans still had full confidence in him.

That time, it was Happy's home game.

And this time, it was at Tiny Herb.

The moment Mu Yu Chenfeng fell, Chen Guo could only see Wei Chen's lips moving. He was probably still cursing about something, but what was he saying? Probably not even he could hear it.

And this was just defeating the opponent with only 21% of their health left. The Tiny Herb audience had already drowned out all the sound in the arena. If they really won this team competition, how excited would these Tiny Herb fans be?

Chen Guo really wished there was a bucket of cold water to cool these guys down. At this moment, Tang Rou's Soft Mist refreshed on the field.

After consuming 8% of Wang Bu Liu Xing's health, Wang Jiexi defeated Su Mucheng. Compared to his powerful strength, this 8% loss would probably be directly ignored by too many people. With 100% health Soft Mist and 92% health Wang Bu Liu Xing standing together, almost everyone was optimistic about the latter.

"Wang Jiexi, truly worthy of being Wang Jiexi!!" Ruan Cheng, who was beside himself after Su Mucheng defeated Liu Xiaobie and Ye Fei, became excited again. His emotions were not much different from the Tiny Herb fans at the scene. Pan Lin and Li Yibo looked at him, and really suspected that if this wasn't a show, this guy would just pounce on the screen and start licking it.

"As long as Wang Jiexi is there, it's really hard for Tiny Herb to lose the individual competition," Ruan Cheng continued to sigh, his tone like Xiang Lin's Wife saying, "I'm so stupid, really."

Pan Lin and Li Yibo couldn't respond to him at all. They were seriously commentating on the match, and there was no way to communicate with a brainless fan.

Fortunately, Soft Mist and Wang Bu Liu Xing had met on the field.

"Alright! Let's pay attention to the match," Pan Lin said with a renewed spirit.

"Hao Long Po Jun!" Ruan Cheng shouted.

Pan Lin and Li Yibo were stunned. Where did Hao Long Po Jun come from? (Dragon Breaks the Ranks)

"Hahaha, didn't even use Hao Long Po Jun?" Ruan Cheng said in a mocking tone.

Pan Lin and Li Yibo continued to be stunned. Tang Rou did like to use Hao Long Po Jun to start, but this was a serious competition, and this was a serious broadcast. Your way of expressing it is too problematic, right?

But the two didn't have time to say much. Tang Rou's style was so direct, whether she used Hao Long Po Jun or not didn't really affect anything. Pan Lin and Li Yibo listened to Ruan Cheng's nonsense, how did these two end up fighting in a团 (tuán, a chaotic melee)? The details were actually blurred…

The commentators were instantly stuck, and they both glared at Ruan Cheng with some annoyance. Ruan Cheng was watching intently, and his expression was excited. The two characters were fighting back and forth, but from the perspective of offense and defense, Wang Jiexi was taking the initiative.

"Worthy of being Wang Jiexi!" Ruan Cheng praised again.

Ptui, ptui, ptui!

Pan Lin and Li Yibo were already starting to think that Ruan Cheng was drawing hatred for Wang Jiexi, but as he kept praising him, the more they looked at Wang Bu Liu Xing on the field, the more they disliked him.

But, currently, Wang Jiexi had the upper hand. This was a fact.

He's improved again.

After half a season, when Wang Jiexi and Tang Rou fought again, this was his first feeling.

Especially in terms of rationality.

Tang Rou had a very strong desire to win. In her battles, there were victories and defeats, but there was never any compromise or retreat. But often, compromise and retreat were the better choices, but for Tang Rou, there was none. She would continue to choose a way to move forward, forward. This choice was sometimes unexpected, but sometimes it also had the opposite effect.

But what about Tang Rou this time?

While admiring her progress, Wang Jiexi also had to smile wryly.

The reason her choices became more rational was not because there was compromise and retreat in her choices. It was just that she chose a more accurate way while going forward.

She understood the skills more thoroughly, she accumulated more experience, and she used every possible method to strengthen her relentless style of play.

This girl's way of improving herself was also relentless. Wang Jiexi had to express his admiration for this.

But…

Not enough!

While Wang Jiexi was amazed at Tang Rou's progress, Tang Rou once again felt the gap in strength. Perhaps some of it was due to equipment, but Tang Rou would not see these as excuses.

She only wanted to win, she didn't want to lose.

The gap in strength didn't mean victory or defeat. The match was fought, not compared.

But Wang Jiexi knew this even better than her. He was not someone who would relax just because he saw how his opponent was.

Bang!

When Soft Mist swung Fire Dance Flowing Flame, it happened to coincide with Wang Bu Liu Xing throwing a Molotov cocktail.

With a crisp sound, the lava in the bottle splattered.

If the Molotov cocktail hit the target directly, the lava that exploded would do more damage. Wang Jiexi was actually using a Molotov cocktail as a way to parry the attack.

Lava flew up, and Extinguishing Star Dust followed.

Clang!

Parrying the attack, Soft Mist's Fire Dance Flowing Flame resisted Extinguishing Star Dust, but the lava that splashed on Soft Mist quickly caused damage to her.

As expected, she didn't retreat.

The attacks did become more reasonable, more coherent, and more powerful, but what about defense?

There were many ways to maintain aggressiveness in defense. Directly eating the damage was indeed very heroic and aggressive, but the requirement for choice was rationality, the greatest effect, not simply pursuing a specific direction.

Overusing the method of directly eating damage may cause you to sell too much health like Liang Fang, and in the end, you won't be able to earn it back and become a breaking point!

If she could have a one-on-one with Yu Wenzhou, she would probably realize this more clearly, but such an opportunity would probably be difficult to come by. But it wasn't necessary. Ye Xiu would definitely see this point as well.

Tang Rou no longer needed to over-train her attacks. What she should be training now was defense. Perhaps her personality led her to dislike defense, and she didn't like to spend more effort on it. But the problem now was that the more she improved on the offensive end, the more unbalanced it would seem compared to the defensive end.

No matter how powerful you are, it is impossible to 100% dominate the attack. There will always be times when you are forced to defend by your opponent. When the advantage is great, you can probably get through it by eating damage in a rough way, but what about when the advantage is not great, or even at a disadvantage? Unreasonable choices will be fatal.

Like now!

A Star Card was suddenly thrown up, right at the same level as Soft Mist's view. Tang Rou quickly controlled Soft Mist to slightly dodge, and continued to step forward to attack.

But it was this step forward that shortened the distance to the Star Card. The moment the Star Card bloomed into Star Rays, the light filled half of Tang Rou's screen.

Soft Mist was not hit by the Star Rays, but she was hit by the next attack…

Because the attack came from that half of the screen, and Tang Rou couldn't see that half of the screen. It was all the light of the Star Rays, even if it was only for a moment, even a moment that the audience needed to watch in slow motion to understand, but in this moment, Wang Bu Liu Xing's attack arrived, hit, continued…

Lost.

Soft Mist fell.

Tang Rou lost again, lost to Wang Jiexi.

Losing to this top大神 (dàshén, expert, pro) of the league didn't seem too strange. But Tang Rou was unwilling, she was unwilling to lose to any opponent.

And she had lost to Wang Jiexi more than once. To put it bluntly, she had never won.

"Hahaha, Wang Jiexi, worthy of being Wang Jiexi, this move is too ingenious!" The broadcast was full of Ruan Cheng's voice. This guy looked like he couldn't wait to jump on the table and do a dance on the spot. Especially when he saw Tang Rou walking out of the competition booth, walking off the stage with regret and disappointment, Ruan Cheng became even more excited.

"Tang Rou still has a long way to go to reach the level of a top-tier player in the alliance! I wonder if the audience still remembers her one-to-three vow? I wonder if she still has such plans now!" Ruan Cheng commented with great enthusiasm.

"Ahem, a very exciting match," Pan Lin said, unable to let this guy continue to talk like this.

"Tang Rou's performance today was also good, but in the end, Wang Jiexi was more experienced," Li Yibo said.

"Yes, in the individual competition, Tiny Herb finally regained two points. Wang Jiexi once again did not disappoint his teammates, as well as the expectations of all the Tiny Herb supporters in the arena and in front of the TV," Pan Lin said emotionally.

"Long live!!" The Tiny Herb audience at the scene even shouted such words, their worship of Wang Jiexi had reached a certain level. Wang Jiexi didn't leave the field immediately like Tang Rou. This was Tiny Herb's home game, and there was a long time before the team competition, so he stayed on the field for a while longer, waving to the audience in all directions.

Tang Rou returned to Happy's player seat, smiled at her teammates who were comforting her, and sat down to the side with some loneliness.

"The attack was good," Ye Xiu turned his head and said to her.

"Good?" Tang Rou smiled wryly. If it was good, why couldn't she suppress her opponent?

"But in a match, it can't all be your attack. The opponent can't even throw out a skill, right?" Ye Xiu said.

"Yeah," Tang Rou knew that Ye Xiu had something to say.

"In this match, how many times was your offensive blocked by the skills that Wang Jiexi threw out?" Ye Xiu said.

Tang Rou looked at the replay on the electronic screen, and it just so happened that there was such a frustrating moment from time to time.

"How to maintain the continuity of the attack at this time is what you need to be very, very, very concerned about. Otherwise, your offensive will always be blocked, and after a few times, you will find that you don't have much health left," Ye Xiu said.

Tang Rou continued to watch the replay. Such moments flashed again and again.

"Starting next match, you'll play the 1st position," Ye Xiu said, "More opportunities for practical training."

"Okay," Tang Rou nodded, understanding the reason for Ye Xiu's arrangement. The 3rd position, although it bears the heavy responsibility of guarding the stage, sometimes the first two players perform well, and there's not much left when it comes to the 3rd position. Only the 1st position in the individual competition has the most substantial practical training opportunities on the single combat arena.

"You don't have any problems, right?" Ye Xiu saw that Tang Rou had no objections, and turned to ask Fang Rui on this side.

"Of course not," Fang Rui said.

Ye Xiu had a helpless expression on his face, "Originally, I wanted you to have more practical combat in the 1st position to adapt to the transition, and her to pay more attention to defense in the 3rd position. After all this trouble, she still has to practice everything in the 1st position."

"Haha, this is the way that suits her!" Fang Rui laughed, "The 1st position can also be used to practice defense, if she's still thinking about taking on three opponents."

"It's a pity there's only one 1st position," Ye Xiu sighed.
