“Heh heh, Little Han, you're still a bit green.”

Wei Chen's final message in the team competition public channel was enough to make every *Glory* player cough up blood.

If Han Wenqing was still a bit green, was there anyone in *Glory* who dared call themselves mature? This guy was blowing his own horn without an ounce of logic!

But this was Happy's home ground after all, so as Happy fans, they could laugh their heads off at this moment.

Tyranny's fans were upset. They weren't afraid of losing, but losing to a guy like this was disgusting. Especially since the one who was defeated was their most respected captain, Han Wenqing.

No one would blame Han Wenqing for this loss. They had seen his usual courage and daring spirit in their captain. It was just that this opponent was too despicable, too cunning, and had no bottom line...

Perhaps in a sense, this kind of guy was the bane of Han Wenqing's straightforward fighting style!

The individual competition had ended, and the two players walked out of their competition booths at the same time. Wei Chen, of course, was beaming, waving his hand, and shamelessly walked a full circle around the arena. The crazy booing from the away team's audience couldn't suppress his smile. He even smiled more happily and shook hands with the away team's audience even more earnestly.

The on-site security staff were on high alert. Those were Tyranny fans. Wasn't provoking them courting death? They quickly dispatched more personnel to this side to prevent any accidents while sending people to advise Wei Chen to celebrate rationally.

Wei Chen was quite receptive to advice. He quickly completed his tour and returned to Happy's player area. Happy's members had already stood up to welcome the great hero who had won the deciding game.

"Sit, sit, sit," Wei Chen said grandly, waving his hand at everyone.

Everyone laughed. No one was complaining at this moment, because they all knew how important and how difficult this victory was for Wei Chen.

"The rest is up to you," Wei Chen then said. The next was the team competition, and he wasn't on the roster.

"Don't worry," Ye Xiu nodded.

"Phew..." Wei Chen breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head, and looked at the electronic screen.

Everything he had done, the victory he had fought for, was clearly recorded on it. This might not have been the most glorious victory he had ever achieved, but it was the victory he was most satisfied with. Time couldn't allow him to stay in this moment, but he believed that he would never forget everything before him, even until death.

The individual competition ended, and Happy had gained a one-point lead. The boost to morale from victory was obvious, but from a practical point of view, one point was generally considered to have a negligible impact on the team competition.

Neither team returned to the preparation room. They started deploying their strategies for the upcoming team competition directly on the field.

The competition had only just begun!

The two teams' rallying cries were surprisingly consistent. However, for Happy, saying this was to remind everyone not to relax because of the individual competition's victory. And for Tyranny, this was naturally to encourage everyone not to be affected by the individual competition's loss. The core idea of both teams saying this was: a one-point lead doesn't mean anything.

The atmosphere on both teams was quite solemn. After bragging about his victory for a while, Wei Chen quickly realized that he should shut up and seriously analyze the team competition's strategies with everyone.

Time passed quickly. The referee had been pacing around outside the field, constantly looking at his watch, preparing to remind both teams to start entering the arena.

Tyranny, who had lost one point in the individual competition, took the lead and got up, heading to the field without waiting for the referee to call them.

Han Wenqing, Lin Jingyan, Zhang Jiale, Qin Muyun, Zhang Xinjie, and the sixth player, Bai Yanfei.

This was the lineup that Tyranny used to fight for the championship last season, and it was also the lineup that people had in mind as Tyranny's main lineup. However, this season, Han Wenqing, Lin Jingyan, and Zhang Jiale started rotating, and with the rise of the young player Song Qiying, this lineup had appeared quite limited times, even absent in the first round of the playoffs.

But now, facing Happy, in the first round away game, Tyranny finally fielded this lineup they used to compete for the championship last season.

Tyranny's die-hard fans immediately started applauding and screaming to cheer for their team.

What about Happy's side? Captain Ye Xiu just glanced at them casually when the cheers rang out and then turned back to continue what he was saying.

But the time was indeed almost up. Ye Xiu had finished speaking in a few words.

"Let's go!" At his call, the Happy team's players who were going to play stood up.

Ye Xiu, Su Mucheng, Fang Rui, Tang Rou, and An Wenyi were all players who didn't feel surprising. But, who was the last one who stood up...?

"Who is this?" Pan Lin in the broadcast asked in a doubtful tone, as if he couldn't believe it.

"Luo Ji? Happy has sent out Luo Ji?" Pan Lin exclaimed.

Luo Ji… he couldn't even pronounce this name smoothly, because he had hardly had the opportunity to say this name on the show.

During the regular season, Happy rarely sent Luo Ji to play. It wasn't until the end of the season that Luo Ji got more opportunities to play.

But Luo Ji was different from Wei Chen. When Wei Chen suddenly started playing at the end of the season, everyone would think that he was adjusting his state to exert his strength in the playoffs. But what about Luo Ji? Luo Ji was a rookie, a young player. His appearance naturally made people think that he was getting more games to accumulate experience under conditions that allowed it.

From the limited opportunities to play, everyone could also see that Luo Ji had some special qualities, but his level couldn't be said to be particularly outstanding.

This was perhaps a player who would have a promising future, but right now, he still needed to grow.

People generally thought so.

But now, Luo Ji had unexpectedly appeared in the team competition roster of Happy's home game against Tyranny in the second round of the playoffs.

"Could it be a mistake?" Pan Lin still couldn't believe this possibility. Maybe Luo Ji just happened to stand up?

However, that wasn't the case.

The electronic screen at the scene was now showing the two teams' lineups. Luo Ji's name was not only on it, but he was also among the starting five. Happy had arranged for Tang Rou to play as the sixth player.

The playoffs weren't a place for rookies to accumulate experience. On this battlefield, every team couldn't wait to take out all of their weapons.

So, could Luo Ji be the weapon that Happy was preparing to use against Tyranny on this home ground?

There was a lot of discussion at the scene, and there were discussions everywhere online. Pan Lin wanted Li Yibo to talk about his views on this. Li Yibo hummed and hawed for a long time, and he basically introduced Luo Ji's style. As for the intention of sending him out, Li Yibo vaguely glossed over it.

The two sides lined up and met on the field.

Naturally, the first to shake hands were the captains of the two teams.

Ten years of rivals. Just in the playoffs, the two teams had met a full four times, and it was on this battlefield that they had forged an inextricable grudge.

In the fifth, sixth, and seventh seasons after that, the two teams never met again. Excellent Era's performance began to decline, and Han Wenqing gradually showed signs of aging. Everything seemed to be telling people that the era of these two people had passed, and the *Glory* Alliance was the world of young people.

Then in the eighth season, Ye Xiu retired and completely bid farewell to this stage. Han Wenqing became the only first-generation player who was still fighting hard on this field.

In that season, Tyranny was eliminated quickly in the playoffs. People sighed, as if they saw the complete end of an era.

Who would have thought that in the ninth season, Tyranny would gather a few old players and finally fight back to the highest stage of the *Glory* battlefield.

Then in the tenth season, Ye Xiu led a new army that he had built himself and returned to the alliance from the Challenger League.

Until now, the two of them were shaking hands again on this field where they had forged a grudge…

Has that era returned?

Seeing this scene, some old *Glory* fans had a sense of daze. The duel between these two people was a memory of an era! Everyone thought that era had ended, but how did these two people meet here again?

"You've improved!" Ye Xiu said while shaking Han Wenqing's hand. Although they were opponents, he was perhaps the one who knew the person in front of him the best. To defeat him, he had racked his brains and tried his best. He was familiar with Han Wenqing's awareness, operations, and techniques. He could detect even the slightest change at a glance.

"Your unspecialized character isn't bad either," Han Wenqing said. He had changed, but speaking of change, how could he compare to the person in front of him who had changed so thoroughly? In the later stage of his professional career, he had simply given up the Battle Mage, which he was originally best at, and took up the bizarre unspecialized character. But Han Wenqing was more certain than anyone else that the unspecialized character might really be an incredibly suitable profession for Ye Xiu. Because just like Ye Xiu knew him, he was equally familiar with how terrifying Ye Xiu was.

The *Glory* textbook. This nickname wasn't an exaggeration at all. It was only more powerful than imagined.

"It's not too late to be afraid now," Ye Xiu said.

"Are you talking to me?" Han Wenqing said coldly. Afraid? That word had never been in his dictionary.

Ye Xiu smiled and didn't say anything more. He shook hands with the other players of Tyranny one by one, Zhang Xinjie, Zhang Jiale, Lin Jingyan… these were all his familiar old opponents. The so-called "that era" couldn't possibly be built by just two people. Countless people might have left this arena, but who knew if they were still watching these guys who were still fighting on the field from some corner of the world?

Turning around, the two teams' players walked towards their competition booths together, and the characters were loaded one by one. Some of these characters were already familiar to people, while others had only begun to emerge this season. Perhaps compared to the players, these characters could better carry the history of *Glory*. When the day came when Ye Xiu, Han Wenqing, Zhang Jiale, and these people were completely gone from the field, those characters that they had used would forever record everything they had left on this field.

Playoffs, Round 2, Happy's home game against Tyranny, team competition, begin!
