It was impossible for him to eat, not for the rest of his life.
Liu Zilang, who was crying, once again learned what "you're welcome" meant when it came to his father, Liu Yigang.
Therefore, other than the players who were staying in the hotel, there was also a group of middle-aged couples. This gave Liu Zilang a headache.
Liu Yigang, on the other hand, was talking and laughing during the dinner. Liu Zilang had won two consecutive championships in the tournament yesterday and today, especially today's tournament where he and Zhang Xiaotong won the championship. This made Liu Yigang the focus of the dinner table, the "Father of Champions".
After the dinner, Liu Zilang and Zhang Xiaotong sent Liu Yigang and Zhang Xiaotong out. The place where they stayed was not far from the hotel, it was about an hour and a half drive away.
When they arrived at the car, Zhang Jingyi pulled Zhang Xiaotong, who had her head lowered, and said something while Liu Yigang and Liu Zilang looked at each other in silence.
"Ahem …" At this time, Liu Yigang, who was standing by the street with one hand in his pocket, suddenly coughed.
Liu Zilang looked at him in confusion.
Liu Yigang glanced at Liu Zilang. "Are you confident in tomorrow's tournament?"
Hearing this, Liu Zilang was stunned, the confusion on his face suddenly turned into confusion.
After all, Liu Yigang had never discussed this with him before. Although he was not like other parents who treated eSports as a scourge, he did not pay much attention to it.
Looking at Liu Yigang's serious face, as if they were discussing some national affairs, Liu Zilang could not help but scratch his butt. "Uh … It's alright."
"What do you mean it's alright?"
Liu Yigang immediately said with a straight face, "Yes means yes, no means no, we're doing business …"
"Business?" Liu Zilang raised his head and asked suspiciously.
"Ahem."
Liu Yigang coughed again. "When we compete, the most important thing is confidence. Back then, I …"
Liu Yigang was in a good mood, he spoke with confidence and went on for more than ten minutes.
Liu Zilang's mouth twitched as he listened, he could not help but 'sincerely' praise, "Amazing!
Thank you so much. "
Liu Yigang smiled faintly. "Keep a low profile, there's no need to praise me, it's nothing. Another thing is …"
When Liu Zilang saw that he was about to continue, he quickly interrupted, "About that … The car will be here soon. Xiaotong and I will head back first. We still have training at night."
Liu Yigang, on the other hand, was carefree. He stopped talking and waved his hand. "Hey, dog, Ma Ersang."
"…"
Speechless, he quickly brought Zhang Xiaotong away. He really could not stand this carefree father of his. He had never been carefree.
.....
Liu Zilang was not spouting nonsense. There was indeed a mock competition at night. Many squads in the country that could not make it were participating in the sparring. For example, Tianlu led by Bao Shaobin, Little Elephant, FPX, and IG.
Two days ago, the Solo and Duo competitions did not have such a level of practice competition. One reason for this was because the importance of the competition was different. After all, the Group Competition was a competition that tested a team's strength. It was also a competition that determined whether or not a team could rise to the top of the world.
On the other hand, the competition system was different.
In PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, there was not much of a difference between a Solo match and a Duo match. However, when it came to a Squad Tournament, it was a completely different game in terms of intensity and tempo.
Although an individual's strength was important in a Squad Tournament, it was not the most important factor in most situations.
Tactics and leadership were the most important factors in a Squad Tournament, followed by individual marksmanship, reflexes, and awareness.
Therefore, the main goal of Liu Zilang and the others in tonight's mock competition was to let them find the rhythm of a Squad Tournament and improve their competitive state as much as possible.
.....
After a night of intense practice competition, Liu Zilang went to bed early.
When he woke up, it was almost noon the next day. After washing up and eating breakfast, they took a bus to the arena.
The starting lineup for the first match of the day had been finalized during the previous night's mock competition.
In reality, Se7en2 had two plans for today's Squad Tournament so that they would not be completely exposed by their opponents.
One was the two main assaulters, Li Muqiu and Misaka Mikoto, the sniper, Shen Zeyan, and the freelancer, the captain, Liu Zilang. Accordingly, they would use the first set of tactics.
The other set of tactics was Gao Yunyang, who was the assaulter. Correspondingly, he would use a completely different style of tactics. In comparison, it was much more violent than the first set of tactics.
Naturally, Liu Zilang and the others would not be so violent right from the start. Therefore, in the first match of the day, they would use the former, which was Misaka Mikoto and the corresponding tactics.
When they arrived at the arena, it was obvious that there were more people outside the arena than the previous two days.
On one hand, it was because more and more people knew about the tournament after the previous two days.
On the other hand, it was because today's match was a clash between squads. In comparison, it would be more exciting and exciting.
After they got off the bus, Liu Zilang and the others entered the arena through the players' passage under the guidance of the security guards.
Many players had already arrived at the arena. Everyone was silently connected to their peripherals, and the atmosphere seemed to be a little tense.
After all, today's match was the most important. Many squads who had obtained a ticket to the World Championship for the first time were full of energy. They wanted to achieve good results in this tournament and make a name for themselves.
Under such an atmosphere, even some of the veteran squads could not help but feel nervous.
On the other hand, Liu Zilang was feeling relaxed. However, Misaka Mikoto who was beside him could not help but sneak a glance at her surroundings after she sat down in front of the computer.
"Why do I feel like … Someone's watching us?"
"It's all because that Shifu of yours is too unrestrained."
Li Muqiu replied snappily, "Don't you know how many people he has offended in the past two days? It's no wonder that he's being watched."
Liu Zilang shrugged when he heard Li Muqiu's words. "The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. It can't be helped."
After saying that, he squinted at Liu Zilang. "I'm sure Guru Qiu doesn't have such troubles."
Li Muqiu was speechless.
He was completely shocked by Liu Zilang's shamelessness. 'How the f * ck did he get angry just because I said that he was unrestrained?'
At that time, Su Changming, who was also the coach and team leader, said in a deep voice, "I'm sure many squads have been studying our past team competition videos for the past two days. We'll have to be careful when we fight today."
“
"En." Hearing Su Changming's words, everyone nodded slightly.
.....
As time passed, more and more spectators entered the arena. The huge arena of the Mercedes-Benz Center in Germany was soon filled with people.
It was around three o 'clock in the afternoon. Under the instructions of the organizer, the tournament quickly entered the final preparation stage.
The live referees and casters were soon in position. That day, there was a new face in the Hua Xia commentator's seat.
"Hello everyone, I'm Lord Rong!"
"Everyone, I'm Ms-Joy!"
"Hello everyone, I'm Bai Shaobin."
Bai Shaobin's appearance did not affect the European and American spectators. However, it caused quite a commotion in the live streaming channels of the major platforms in China.
"Captain Bai is commentating?"
"D * mn, I was wondering why that person looked so familiar."
"That's so cool, Captain Bai!"
"You don't say, I really can't recognize Captain Bai even if he's wearing a sockpuppet."
“.....”
The team competition was more complicated than the previous two days. The situation changed much faster as well. Obviously, the organizer had taken this into consideration. That was why they had arranged for Bai Shaobin to commentate today.
Although Bai Shaobin was not a professional commentator, he was a professional player who was one of the "Asia's Top Three Sniper Gods". He could complement the live commentators to a certain extent and bring a better viewing experience to the audience.
After confirming that everything was ready, the referees quickly informed them that the first match of PGI's squad finals was about to begin.
In the player's booth, Liu Zilang quietly looked at the loading screen that had turned black.
Soon, the image on the screen changed!
[Se7en2-Lech has entered the game!]
[Se7en2-Menhera has entered the game!]
[Se7en2-Wolves has entered the game!]
[Se7en2-Vic has entered the game!]
