Chapter 240: You Can’t Escape Your Fate





Team Scarlet was floored by the complete dominating performance of Team Skycrown. You would hear people talking about how good other teams were when they defeated some other strong teams, but not even letting your opponent surrender at twenty minutes and completely dominating the match was another level of greatness.


It finally came to the third round of elimination matches, and Team Scarlet was prepared to participate.


Team Scarlet had been silently praying that they would not go against Team Skycrown. So far, it seemed to be going well because they weren’t even in the same grouping and their match was to be carried out in Area A. Team Scarlet played against a team that was stronger than them and Luocheng was watching the entire match.


He was surprised at how much Team Scarlet had improved over the past few months as their opponent was at least on par with a third tier professional team. They struggled a bit in the match, but they came out victorious.


That Bin Bin who played Support, he had good abilities too, being able to drive the team well.


Team Skycrown’s third elimination match was after Team Scarlet’s, and they were still in Area C.


After claiming victory, Team Scarlet came over with big smiles on their faces. They maintained the usual and continued to watch the third match of Team Skycrown’s.


Going into the third round, the opponents you’d meet would range from amateurs to professionals. Bin Bin didn’t hesitate as he drew out a roll of money, declaring boldly, “If this round they don’t have a single death and finish the game within 20 minutes, dinner will be on me! Just tell me what you want to eat!”


“It’ll be a bit difficult, their opponent is Team Azure Dream, a national internet cafe chain professional team. They’re often seen in various competitions.” Qin Ying said.


“Yeah, Team Azure Dream is really strong.”


***


At the start of the game, Team Skycrown still maintained their playstyle of not engaging in level one teamfights.


Not engaging didn’t mean your opponent wouldn’t, but if you retreated, they would invade your jungle and claim the buff for themselves. It was fatal to the Jungler if he gave up the first buff, and Team Azure Dream demonstrated their dominance in the beginning by taking Team Skycrown’s buff forcefully.


“Zhou Yan, will you be fine?” Lin Dong asked, seeing that Zhou Yan lacked the buff.


“Let him take it, I’ll make it so that he will never get another buff in the future.” Zhou Yan replied.


“Alright.”


Zhou Yan’s usual character was dull and boring, but once his hands touched the mouse and keyboard, controlling the champion, a whole new other side of him—a more free and temperamental part of him would emerge.


In about eight minutes, Zhou Yan’s items had caught up with the opponent Jungler even without ganking. The jungle wasn’t split into blue or red side, everything was his prey!


After taking the opponent’s red buff, he headed toward the bottom lane.


Successfully completed a double kill.


Taking down the first Dragon, Zhou Yan made a beeline for the opponent’s blue buff.


At this time, the opponent Jungler was helping Mid take the blue buff. Just as the Jungler pressed the S key, the familiar blue orb flew to Jax instead. Planting a ward and jumping away, stealing the buff was going smoothly so far…


You need to know he only had 200 health left after taking Dragon, and with that amount of health, he still dared to steal the blue buff.


In thirteen minutes, Zhou Yan had single-handedly taken over the jungle area and opposed the Mid and Jungler of his opponents. After dying once, Lin Dong, Xiao Bei and Wu Sen had come to provide their assistance, and a fierce fight started in the jungle area.


***


One for three, apart from Wu Sen’s heroic sacrifice, the rest survived. Taking the red buff, taking Dragon, and matching Da Luo’s pace to take the opponent’s blue buff. After fifteen minutes, Team Azure Dream’s jungle was under Team Skycrown’s complete control. At sixteen minutes, all the outer turrets had been demolished.


At seventeen minutes, Team Skycrown took the Baron and pushed the lane with the minion wave. At nineteen minutes, they had reached their opponent’s base, easily disposing of them and getting an Ace.


They cleaned out the base without much effort, clocking in the match at 20 minutes 40 seconds!


End of match, 15:1.


“Okay, at least the record was broken.” Huang Yu said, sighing.


Team Skycrown was really a force to be reckoned with, three elimination matches, one round in 16 minutes, another in 17 minutes, and both without a single death or turret.


The third match, even with a team as strong as Team Azure Dream, they only needed an extra three minutes. The one death that was their Support was also only because Team Azure Dream desperately tried their hardest for it.


While it was true that Team Scarlet was aware of the subversions of strong teams, it was hard to think that maybe even going against first or second tier teams would be like this?


Bin Bin also sighed in relief, he had almost lost a few hundred yuan because of that.


Why did it feel like Team Skycrown was so much stronger than Team LN, it felt like a counterattack was coming!


***


“Team Skycrown has successfully entered the final elimination stage, the matches will start next week, and you’re placed in Group C!” The staff announced to the members of Team Skycrown.


He then passed the schedule of Group C to them. There were only 24 teams in Group C, and these teams would compete to get into the finals.


Lin Dong took a careful look at the list of teams in the competition. There were a total of six groups, and there would be many strong and famous teams. Lin Dong wanted to see if there were any teams in all the groups that would pose a threat to their Team Skycrown.


“Yeah, Team Finance is strong and on par with a second tier team.”


“Holy shit, come over here and take a look at which team is in the same group as us!” Da Luo shouted as he pointed at the list.


“Which team, which team?” Xiao Bei asked as he came over.


“It couldn’t be Team Scarlet, right?” Luocheng said jokingly as he laughed.


Qin Ying’s face was pinched as he said, “We’re in Group A, and to be honest, it’s a huge relief that we’re not in Group C.”


The members of Team Scarlet nodded their heads heavily in unison.


Frankly, it wasn’t the fact that they couldn’t take losing. It was the fact that you would lose to the point that you didn’t even have the option to surrender, and that would shatter your self esteem completely.


“It’s Team Galaxy!” Da Luo said as he laughed loudly.


“F*ck, it’s them!”


The eyes of the Team Skycrown members brightened up immediately!


You really couldn’t escape your fate, if you were going to be arrogant, karma will definitely come and bite you in the ass.


Team Galaxy had the gall to abandon the combat practice with them without any remorse, and just because they were internet league champions, they had called Team Skycrown a trash team!


Unbelievable that they were sorted into the same group!


Team Galaxy should be considered a strong team in Group C, in other words, as long as Team Skycrown maintained their win rate, they would definitely have the chance to meet Team Galaxy!


Recalling the humiliation in the club room the other day and the forced smiles that Da Luo, Xiao Bei, Lin Dong and the rest had had to put on, Team Scarlet suddenly felt as if the temperature had suddenly dropped a few degrees.


Team Galaxy, just wait to be pummeled!
