Chapter 88

"Is something wrong?" Qin Ying glanced at Yu Luosheng, whose expression was somewhat serious, and asked.

"There are probably two players with semi-professional level on the other side," Yu Luosheng said seriously.

Yu Luosheng hadn't been playing League of Legends (LOL) for very long. Although he had indeed faced some professional players, this game isn't one where individual strength alone can secure victory.

Not to mention Yang Ying's strength, the jungler on the other side was also very difficult to deal with.

The jungler is the one who can most effectively set the pace for the entire team. If he opens up the other two lanes, even if Yu Luosheng's individual strength is strong, he might still feel overwhelmed.

Yu Luosheng had a rough idea of the Blood Team's strength in his mind. They were still considered amateur experts, with a certain gap compared to professional players.

"Are semi-professional players... very strong?" Xiao Tongtong asked.

Yu Luosheng recounted all the information Yang Qianqian had told him to the team members.

Although the Blood Team members had planned to develop towards a professional path, they hadn't actually officially embarked on the journey of becoming professional players. Their understanding of those competitions and strength assessments was hard to define clearly.

"Top ten in the national college rankings? That's pretty impressive!" Xue Haiyang said.

"What do you mean? They're just a bunch of students, they can't be that strong, right?" Xiaodao said.

"You don't know," Xue Haiyang, a college student himself, said, though he had skipped school for a long time, he was very familiar with that environment, "I also played in the college LOL league with some seniors. I was probably one of the weaker players in the team. Do you know what place our team got?"

Qin Ying, Xiaodao, Xiao Tongtong, and Huang Yu all looked at Xue Haiyang blankly.

Xue Haiyang smiled bitterly and said, "Back then, my school had seven teams participating, and only the team I was in made it past the preliminary rounds. The others were all eliminated. Then, when our team entered the provincial college competition, we were thoroughly crushed by the Fujian Normal University team. We couldn't even last 20 minutes before our base was destroyed."

"What was the strength of your team?" Qin Ying asked.

"That was a few months ago, and I can't really define it well, but the Fujian Normal University team that crushed us was probably stronger than the Tian Da team..." Xue Haiyang said.

"I remember Fujian Normal University didn't rank low in the college LOL league, they seemed to have made it to the top 20," Qin Ying said.

Qin Ying had paid some attention to these competitions, after all, the LOL homepage would post this information.

"That's not bad. We also crushed the Tian Da team, which means our strength is around the top 20 in the national college rankings," Huang Yu said.

Qin Ying nodded, it wasn't too far off.

The other three members of the Dawn Team should be about the same strength as the Tian Da team. With two players from the top 10 in the national college rankings, the gap wouldn't be too large.

Xue Haiyang shook his head with a bitter smile and continued, "If that were the case, I wouldn't have much to worry about."

"What, do you lack confidence in us?"

"Xue Haiyang, you don't need to belittle yourself. You've been training for over two months, your strength must have improved a lot," Qin Ying said.

Xue Haiyang said, "At first, I thought the same as you, that being crushed by a team that made it to the top 20 wasn't that embarrassing. But then I checked, and I found out that it wasn't like that at all. The team that crushed us was indeed from Fujian Normal University, but... it was their third team..."

Qin Ying, Xiao Tongtong, Xiaodao, and Huang Yu were all stunned.

"Third... third team??"

Xue Haiyang looked at everyone and nodded helplessly.

When he first heard this news, Xue Haiyang had the same expression as them.

"Xue Haiyang, are you kidding? We can't be that bad, right?" Xiaodao said.

"Do I have a reason to joke at this moment? I'm telling the truth. I feel that our team's strength is probably about the same as Fujian Normal University's third team, maybe a bit stronger, but not by much. In the national college rankings, we're definitely outside the top 100," Xue Haiyang said.

Outside the top 100!!

If the person saying this wasn't their teammate, Huang Yu, Xiaodao, and Xiao Tongtong definitely wouldn't believe it.

Qin Ying's expression also became much more serious. After a long pause, he said, "Xue Haiyang is probably right. We can see our ranking in the team rankings..."

"Then... then the other side has two top 10 players?? How is that possible? How can the Dawn Team have such strong players?" Xiaodao said.

"The original Dawn Team was eliminated in the internal competition at the internet cafe," Yu Luosheng said.

This information came from Yang Qianqian.

"Eliminated?? But they formed their team earlier than us, didn't they?" Huang Yu said.

Everyone's expressions became even more grim.

The Tian Da Team, Dawn Team, Yi Qu Team, and Long Sheng Blood Team, if no other factors were involved, their strengths shouldn't differ much.

The originally popular Yi Qu Team being defeated by the Dawn Team was unexpected by many. However, what no one expected was that the original Dawn Team was actually eliminated in the internal competition at the internet cafe!

So the team now bearing the Dawn name is a different one!

Among them are two players ranked in the top 10 in the national college rankings!

"Why didn't you tell us this important information earlier?" After comparing strengths, Xiaodao understood what those two players meant.

"I just found out myself..." Yu Luosheng turned back and looked at Yang Qianqian with a bitter smile.

Yang Qianqian's mouth was open, holding her phone, somewhat disbelieving.

Yang Qianqian had heard the conversation of the Blood Team through her phone, and she didn't expect her brother Yang Ying to be so strong?

Could it be that all the things he boasted about in front of her were true??

"I... I should have told you earlier... And, the one who played the Fisherman that day was him," Yang Qianqian hurriedly said.

"Oh, I see," Yu Luosheng, who was eating chicken claws, was indeed killed by him.

...

"The match is starting, let's give it our all," Qin Ying patted everyone's shoulders and said seriously.

"Wouldn't it be better not to know? This is already a morale hit before the match even starts," Xiao Tongtong said.

Qin Ying shook his head.

This information is very, very important. Only by knowing this can they take precautions and countermeasures. Otherwise, they might be crushed without any defense.

"Luosheng, can you handle it?" As the team members took their positions, Qin Ying asked Yu Luosheng quietly.

"I don't know. I'm a support, I can't set the pace," Yu Luosheng said.

"Do you want to switch with Huang Yu, let him play support, and you go against that person?" Qin Ying said.

Yu Luosheng shook his head and said, "I don't think my AP skills are much better than his. If I can't crush him, we'll lose this game. After all, they have a very strong jungler. Let Huang Yu play AP, I'll try to open up the bottom lane, I'm more confident there. Just make sure Huang Yu plays it safe."

"Alright," Qin Ying didn't force it.
