The banning stage would be skipped directly in the tiebreaker game, and the map would also be picked randomly by the system from the game library. The captains of both sides needed to submit the lineup list directly without knowing the other team, which also had a lot to do with luck. Lewen mobile network of Mojue today’s luck was obviously good, the system randomly out of the map was ‘Guiyun Villa’, in all the villa map, the biggest feature of this map was that there were many mechanism in the villa, players could use the trigger mechanism to assist in the battle.
After the map selection was completed, the captains of both sides submitted their respective lineups at the same time, and the final lineup was quickly displayed on the big screen.
On the Mojue side, there was a violent output array composed of Qin Mo’s swordsman, Xiao Han’s assassin, and Liu Hong’s double-ring trap, while Frost Moon’s side was Pang Jia’s Kuangdao Gate meat shield, Chen Jiang’s long-range whip and a healer.
After seeing the lineup, Ye Chao immediately analysed. “Mojue’s idea is that the three outputs join hands to play a fast break, one person will be killed as soon as possible in the beginning to establish an advantage in number. On the Frost Moon’s side, there is a traditional iron triangle combination with meat shield and healer. The front row is protected by a meat shield, and the back row is a healer to prolong life. Although the output is only captain Chen, this combination has strong survival ability.”
“It seems that it is not so easy for Mojue to kill a person in a second.” Liang Ru added.
Ye Chao nodded. “Frost Moon team members can recover if they lose blood, but there is no milk at Mojue, and the blood lost can’t recover. Once the battle drags on to the later stage, captain Chen can slowly grind a person to death by taking advantage of the blood gap. The system randomly chosen map ‘Guiyun Villa’ is a map of the mechanism. Players on both sides can use the mechanical to do some trick to see which side can seize the opportunity.”

Seeing this from the VIP room, Su Shilun couldn’t help turning around and asking. “Do you think Xiao Chen can win?”
“Not necessarily,” Xiao Sijing replied.
Su Shilun replied. “Xiao Pang is the master T that you personally guided. Although his competition experience is still lacking, and his current strength is not as good as that of the captain of the Dynasty. However, this child is extremely talented and responds very quickly, especially in the face of damage pressure. The movement technique is not much worse than that of you, right?”
Xiao Sijing raised his eyebrows lightly. “Do you have such a high evaluation of Xiao Pang?”
“I like him best among the players of Seven Star Grass’s generation, and his flesh is very cute.” Su Shilun replied confidently.
Xiao Sijing smiled slightly. “You’re right, Xiao Pang, the meat shield, has a really good compression resistance. Xiao Chen’s output technique is first-class, and Xiao Gao’s healing skill is passable. But objectively speaking, Chen Jiang’s defensive lineup will have a 70% chance of winning against other teams, but the odds of winning against the Dynasty and Mojue are less than 50%.” He paused, and calmly analysed, “Dynasty had Chu Jianxin as a meat shield, and if both sides played the late lineup, Frost Moon can’t take an advantage from it. The ability of Han, Mo and Hong join output should be the strongest in the current Peerless Jianghu league, and Xiao Pang may not be able to stand the damage of these three people.”
Su Shilun looked at him with some surprise. “I didn’t expect that you know the team here very well?”
Xiao Sijing explained. “The esports alliance has the registration information of all the players. I have nothing to do and I know the situation of each team basically.”
“Which one of these players do you think have the most prospect?” Su Shilun asked.
Xiao Sijing replied. “Qin Mo and Xiao Han don’t need to say much, their strength lies there. After this season, they will definitely be able to determine their standing as a great gods in the new league. The players of other teams, Nie Yuzhu is the most stable, Qiu Zongping is the calmest, Sang Jun is the most alert, and Su Cheng is the most unfathomable. From the tactical command and leading ability, I am more optimistic about these people.”
“Did you forget our family Captain Xiao Chen?” Su Shilun reminded him.
“Xiao Chen has good strength and a good mentality, but he is still too young and needs some training.” Xiao Sijing replied.

Chen Jiang was indeed a young captain, Frost Moon team under his leadership was very energetic, coupled with the existence of Xiao Pang this pistachio, the team members were very lively every day.
At the beginning of the decisive game, Chen Jiang, Pang Jia and Gao Xiaorui sat in front of the computer, waiting for the map to be loaded. Pang Jia rubbed his hands. “Captain Chen, I’m so nervous all of a sudden! The three violent outputs on the opposite side will certainly beat me up later…”
Touching his bulging belly. “Don’t be nervous, turn fat into energy.” Chen Jiang joked.
Pang Jia: “……”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
Gao Xiaorui also smiled. “Xiao Pang, Mojue’s players are thinner. Your weight is the sum of Xiao Han and Qin Mo. What are you afraid of!”
“Dea atlr lr cba jc 80xu pevb mbwqfalalbc,” Ujcu Alj gfqilfv klat j ylaafg ojmf. “Pa lr j xfsybjgv mbwqfalalbc! Po tjcv-ab-tjcv, P wluta yf jyif ab vlgfmais mgert Hlc Zb, yea …”

Pang Jia nodded seriously, thinking in his heart, why couldn’t he fight hand-to-hand? If it was a real person PK, his weight could definitely crush the high-value male gods of the league! Qin Mo could be directly pressed into meat pie by him!
Qin Mo sitting in the opposite soundproof room suddenly sneezed.
Xiao Han immediately turned around and asked caringly. “Have you caught a cold?”
“It’s nothing.” Qin Mo rubbed his nose.
Liu Hong pretended not to hear anything, and her eyes were fixed on the screen in front of her.
The map was finally loaded, and both players respawned at the rooms in the southeast and northwest corner at the same time.
Guiyun Villa was located in the south of the Yangtze River in the game. It was Zhuge Family’s branch. Therefore, the villa was full of Zhuge Family’s mechanicals. There were many mechanism buttons in the room. After pressing, different effects would be triggered. The known mechanism of this ‘Guiyun Villa’ include bow and crossbow, stonehenge and sharp blade cart. The specific trigger points were different.
Everyone walked out of the room and came to the courtyard of the villa.
The courtyard was covered with square tiles of various colors. Qin Mo immediately stepped on a white brick and listened to the loud sound of ‘boom’. Countless spherical boulders rolled over from all directions and surrounded everyone in an instant!
Pang Jia walked right in front at that time. Unexpectedly, Qin Mo stepped on the mechanism directly at the beginning. Unexpectedly, he was pressed into a meat pie head-on by a boulder.
Audiences: “……”
“As soon as he got to the yard, a huge boulder rolled over. Pang Jia must be very confused.” Ye Chao couldn’t help joking.
Liang Ru added. “The fast rolling boulder pressed over his body, it looks really painful…”
In fact, it was also very painful. Pang Jia’s blood volume directly dropped by 20%. The back row healer immediately stacked several layers of blood buff to him, and Chen Jiang reminded him. “Xiao Pang, pay attention to your movement!”
“En,” Pang Jia looked around warily, lest Qin Mo opened the mechanism again.
Chen Jiang added. “I will consume Qin Mo first, and Xiao Rui will add blood.”
Because of the healer, the pace of the game didn’t need to be too fast. Chen Jiang wanted to give priority to the slow and steady consumption. He stood behind Pang Jia, and he kept slash his poisonous whip to attack Qin Mo. With Pang Jia as a cover, Qin Mo couldn’t take him for a while.
However, Qin Mo’s tactical thinking was very clear—— directly killing the healer.
When there were both healer and meat shield, it took a long time to kill the thick-skinned meat shield. It was better to take away the healer when meat shield players’ skills cool down. At least the healer’s defense was weak, the blood volume was low, and if well controlled, it would be slightly easier to kill than meat shield.
Qin Mo quickly issued an order. “A-Hong, go to interrupt the healer’s casting, and put more traps on the ground to control the movement!”
“Understood!” Liu Hong simply nodded, gold and silver double rings in her hand shot at the same time, and quickly placed a row of serial traps on the ground.
At this moment, Chen Jiang suddenly slashed his whip to the stone pillar next to him. There happened to be the control button of the sharp blade cart mechanism. As Chen Jiang activated the mechanism, a densely packed sharp blade cart was besieged from all sides. Fortunately, Mojue’s three players reacted extremely, immediately jumped up with qinggong and escaped the siege of the sharp blade cart array, but unfortunately, the trap Liu Hong laid was destroyed by the sharp blade cart array.
“Captain Chen has a lot of ideas.” Ye Chao commented with admiration. “Seeing Liu Hong come out, he knows that the other side will definitely set traps to disturb them. He decisively uses the mechanism to get rid of the control field of this wave of traps.”
Liang Ru added. “Fortunately, Mojue’s three players used qinggong skills to dodge immediately. They didn’t get any damage, otherwise they suffered a big loss.”
Chen Jiang opened the sharp blade cart mechanism in a timely manner, but Qin Mo was not idle. At the same time of leaping with qinggong, he suddenly threw his sword to the stone statue in the middle of the courtyard. Suddenly, countless arrow like heavy rain, they shot at the bottom!
Frost Moon’s three players had to retreat to avoid the bow and crossbow array, Qin Mo immediately seized the opportunity. “Attack!”
Liu Hong used the blinking skill of ‘Floating Light’ to instantly come behind Frost Moon’s three players. In her hands, she played a fluent series of combos and set up a series of trap arrays again. Frost Moon’s three players retreated, the result was to step on Liu Hong’s trap, and was trapped to silence.
Xiao Han seized the opportunity to open ‘Thousand Lights Ghost Walk’ to break through to the back row, aiming at the healer and suddenly cutting him!
Qin Mo followed closely, and cooperated with Xiao Han to deal super high damage…
However, the silence trap control field was only 3 seconds, and as soon as the time was up and Mojue was about to connect to the follow-up control, Pang Jia suddenly opened the ‘Bloody Scent’ forced to absorb damage skills, while giving himself a protective shield.
With the existence of this shield, Pang Jia’s defense power doubled, and with the help of the healer, the damage of Mojue’s three players was like a punch into the cotton.
Qin Mo temporarily stopped the attack, and the three players began to swim away quickly, waiting for the other side’s shield effect to end.
However, at the moment when the protective shield effect ended, Pang Jia tactfully opened his rebound damage skill. As a result, Xiao Han’s attack skill was directly rebounded back to himself!
Fortunately, Xiao Han had suffered from the rebound damage of Kuangdao Gae before. This time, he also learned to be smarter. He only used ‘Rainbow Through The Sun’ to hit him, and suffered the least damage. After the rebound, the blood loss was not serious, and Liu Hong’s trap injury was also rebounded. The three outputs of Mojue played for a long time, and the other party quickly returned to full blood, but their own blood volume dropped badly.
“It will be difficult to fight like this.” Ye Chao was worried. “Chen Jiang has been targeting Qin Mo in the back row. Qin Mo’s current blood is only 50%, god Han and Liu Hong only have about 80% of blood volume, while Frost Moon has a healer. With just a group skill can fill up the blood of all three players.”
As soon as the voice fell, the other party used a group-adding skill to heal, filling up the blood volume that Liu Hong had exploded with the serial trap just now.
The audience was speechless, with a meat shield and healer lineup. It was really annoying to fight. Once the battle situation entered Frost Moon’s rhythm, even if Xiao Han and Qin Mo output were stronger, they would be dragged to death by them.
Shen He scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, wishing to help kill the meat shield on the other side. Zhu Qingyue’s expression was very calm, with a smile on his face. Shen He couldn’t help saying. “Great god Qingyue, the other side rebounded back and returned blood like this. It’s hard to fight! Our Mojue’s strongest output line is still full of blood after playing for a long time. How do we solve this?”
Zhu Qingyue. “Don’t worry, your master will find a way.”
Shen He had to turn back and continue watching the game, and the next moment, the game really turned around——
Frost Moon’s healer was under too much pressure. He just used the long-cooldown group adding blood skills and single first aid skills. The remaining was only blood adding skills needed to be cast. Pang Jia’s rebound damage skill was also in the cooldown stage at this time. Qin Mo immediately shouted. “Attack!”
Upon hearing the command, Liu Hong decisively used the longest attacking skill in Xuanbing Palace ‘Interlocking Rings’!
One after another, the small silver rings smashed into the healer’s chest like a bead. Such frequent attacks made it impossible for the healer to cast and increase blood.
Qin Mo and Xiao Han were also in action at the same time—— Qin Mo used ‘Sword Horizon’, ‘Sword Rain Remnant’ continuous attack group attack control field, he silenced Pang Jia and Chen Jiang in one breath. Xiao Han turned invisible with ‘Shadowless Dragon’, and then came out with a series of explosive damage!
The three of them acted at the same time and broke through Pang Jia’s defense in an instant. Liu Hong’s ‘Interlocking Rings’ combo could achieve continuous offensive and interrupt the healer’s casting with her extremely fast hand speed. This gave Xiao Han and Qin Mo an excellent output environment. Qin Mo decisively opened ‘Skyward Sword’ group attack, and at the same time used the ‘Drifting Sword’ penetrating skill plus the ‘Unrivaled Sword’ targeted attack, with the bonus of the big move, Xiao Han’s nine shadows burst out in one breath to strike a terrifying siege damage, closely following the outbreak of the single attack of the ‘Deadly Ice Silkworm’!
The three players smashed down a series of skills in one breath, reducing 80% of the healer’s health in a second!
—— [Thousand Miles Ice] has killed [It’s Lonely At The Top]!
When this message popped up, Mojue’s fans were finally relieved.
Mojue’s three players played very hard in the early stage. It was not because they couldn’t beat Frost Moon, but Qin Mo was looking for the best time. They left a lot of big moves and skills, and they all exploded at the best time to kill the healer at one breath, this was Qin Mo’s real strategy.
The audience applauded thunderously, Ye Chao smiled. “Mojue’s three players explosive output is really terrible. Liu Hong’s ‘Interlocking Rings’ attack makes it impossible to cast and add blood. All the big moves of Han and Mo all come over. This healer player probably wants to cry in his heart!”
“Once the healer is dead, it will be difficult for Frost Moon to win.” Liang Ru added.
Frost Moon used the iron triangle lineup of meat shield, milk and output, which was the most stable combination. The downwind game could slowly drag the opponent to death, but the upwind game had no ability to turn over. After the healer died, Pang Jia had a strong defense, but unfortunately there was only one output skill, and the rebound was easy to be predicted by Xiao Han, Chen Jiang’s output ability was also limited.
However, Chen Jiang lived up to the expectations of his fans. In the early stage, he kept staring at Qin Mo and beat Qin Mo to less than half blood. After the healer died, he used a set of explosive skills to cripple Qin Mo, but Qin Mo was not so easy to kill. After his residual blood, he tactfully hid behind Xiao Han and Liu Hong. Liu Hong used the front row trap control field, Chen Jiang wanted to bypass her to kill Qin Mo also had a certain difficulty.
In the end, although Chen Jiang used a lot of skills to kill Qin Mo’s residual blood, Frost Moon’s own blood volume was also beaten. After Xiao Han big move’s cooldown was finished, he opened ‘Shadowless Dragon’ to do a set of outbreaks, and directly collected the heads of Chen Jiang and Pang Jia.
On the big screen, the score between Mojue and Frost Moon became 2:1, Mojue won.
Frost Moon lost the game and their points were deducted, the real-time update of the league team scoreboard, Frost Moon team returned to the fourth place again.
“Captain Chen has won fourth of three events. This is the fourth time. It is said that the four fourth can summon the dragon. Let’s see what he summoned?” Ye Chao joked.
The director pointed the camera at the VIP room, and two people’s faces suddenly appeared on the big screen, one of which looked serious and not angry, the other with a smile, and greeted the audience amicably after seeing his face appear on the big screen.
Many fans recognised them, and the live broadcast platform began to comment on screen crazily: “Oh, my God, it’s emperor Xiao and god Lun!”
“Captain Chen was powerful and domineering, and four fourth summoned both grandmasters!”
“Grandmasters came to the scene in person, and as a result, captain Chen still lost 2333. Poor captain Chen!”
“I feel sorry for Xiao Chen for 10 seconds, who told you to meet the big BOSSES!”

In the soundproof room, Pang Jia said with a bitter face. “It is said that the chance of losing in the debut is very high. Is this really an unbreakable curse?”
Chen Jiang sighed gently, patted his shoulder. “It’s all right, just try your best. It’s not easy for you to play like this in your first game.”
After the game, Qin Mo took Mojue’s players to shake hands.. Pang Jia’s round eyes kept staring at Qin Mo. Qin Mo had some doubts and went to Pang Jia to reach out his hand. As a result, Pang Jia suddenly squeezed his hand and asked. “How much do you weigh?”
Qin Mo: “…??”
Pang Jia asked bitterly. “God Mo, how much do you weigh?”
“65kg.” Qin Mo replied.
“I weigh two times than you, I’m more than 100kg!” Pang Jia replied proudly.
Everyone: “……”
So you were proud? Qin Mo was puzzled, and didn’t quite understand the fat boy’s brain circuit.
After Qin Mo left, Chen Jiang laughed. “Xiao Pang, that’s enough. You want to beat him with your weight. That’s impossible, go to sleep.”
Pang Jia scratched his head with a smile, his debut show was decisively lost, and Frost Moon returned to fourth place. Frost Moon team, which had won four fourth places, wouldn’t win the fifth fourth place, and achieve the unprecedented ‘five consecutive fourth place achievements’, right? It was better for him to stop his crow’s mouth.
[Many fans recognised them, and the live broadcast platform began to comment on screen crazily: “Oh, my God, it’s emperor Huang and god Lun!”]
I’m guessing it should be Emperior Xiao, not Huang.😅
Seems like today’s chapted has yet to be edited.
Thank you! 💕
Aww sorry, I proofread this the same time at the previous chapter, and my mind think his name is Emperor Huang loll 🤣
Thanks for mention~
And you’re welcome~ ❤
This Pang Jia is so amusing xD
Thank you for the chapter 💜💜💜
Pang Jia wants to PK Qin Mo in real life 😏
You’re welcome~ ❤
It might seem weird to call Pang Jia a pistachio but the literal translation of the way you say pistachio in Chinese is “happy fruit” so when they call him a pistachio they’re saying he’s jovial. I also didn’t read the first book so I don’t feel much with the grandmaster cameos this time. I’m assuming they were flirting though.
