On August 1st evening, the first professional league competition was officially opened.
The schedule of this group match was already distributed to the leaders of major teams after the three-players competition. Netizens who followed and paid attention to the league knew that the first match was Mojue’s home court, and their opponent was Graceful Beauty team from Shenzhen.
Judging from the current points situation, Mojue ranked first in scoreboard, while Graceful Beauty ranked last. The strength of both teams was very different, so the result of today’s game naturally had no suspense.
Before the match started, Ye Chao bluntly commented. “The overall strength gap between Mojue and Graceful Beauty is too big. In addition, today is Mojue’s home court, Graceful Beauty has no chance of winning. The result should be 2:0, depending on what mode captain Qin chooses.”
“Mojue’s official support club has just been established recently.” Liang Ru added. “As we can see today, many members of the official support club came to the scene to cheer for the players, and they also designed a very unique giant lightstick jigsaw puzzle poster of eight Mojue’s players, the fans are really very attentive.”
The scene of the auditorium was just released on the big screen. Watching this scene backstage, Xu Sizhe had mixed feelings. Even though he couldn’t like Qin Mo, he did lead the team well, and Mojue’s popularity was beyond his imagination. Fighting in the away game today, with different weather, location, people, the situation was not optimistic… but, they still needed to brace themselves to fight these two games.
The official staff went backstage to inform the players to enter the stage. Xu Sizhe put away his messy thoughts and pretended to calmly lead the team members to the stage.
The esports competition venue in Changsha was expanded with the help of the alliance at that time after the establishment of Dragon Song club. The scale and equipment of the venue were first-class in China, which could accommodate tens of thousands people. Liu Chuan, the first captain of Dragon Song, played many classic games here. Li Cangyu, the first captain of Canglan, Xie Shurong, and Xiao Han, the third captain, also beat many opponents here. Now, Qin Mo, as the captain of Mojue, followed the passionate music to the big stage. Under the dazzling light, suddenly a hot blood feeling surged up in his heart.
This main venue had witnessed the glorious history of many predecessors. In his generation, he would never let the Dragon Song venue be humiliated, let alone disappoint the fans who came to the venue in person.
Their first opponent was Graceful Beauty, who was the weakest team in the league, but they couldn’t be careless even though they were fighting against the weak team. It was excusable to lose against the strong team, but they couldn’t explain to everyone if they fell in the hand of the weak team.
During commentary, Ye Chao and Liang Ru quickly introduced both teams’ situation and the competition system of the team match. Both teams’ eight players photos were released on the big screen. Seeing the eight players’ photos appearing on screen, the fans at the scene were screaming and the sounds were resounding through the venue, these fans’ emotions could be felt even in the soundproof room.
Hearing the screams from outside, Qin Mo gave a briefing. “Close your eyes, let your mood calm down, don’t go overboard just because this is our home court. I give everyone a minute to calm down and concentrate immediately after the game starts.”
Old players had long been accustomed to the hot blooded atmosphere at home court, but several young players had not experienced the spectacular scene of fans cheering in unison. Soundproof room could only keep most of the volume, but it was not completely silent, especially at home court, when fans were extremely excited, cheers would occasionally reach their ears. If they couldn’t get rid of the distractions, they would probably be influenced by fans in the game later.
Qin Mo worried that several teenagers would be overly excited and made mistakes, so he asked them to close their eyes before the game to stabilize their emotions. This approach worked very well. Shen He, who was so excited that he almost had to run laps around the stage, finally calmed down after closing his eyes for a minute. The expressions on Xiao He and Xiao Pei’s faces were not as excited as they were at the beginning. As for Mu Ran…Qin Mo didn’t need to worry about him, he was always the most calm.
Three minutes before the start of the game, Qin Mo and Xiao Han stepped forward to debug the equipment, while the other team members sat on the bench and waited patiently.
At 7:30pm in the evening, the game officially started, the lights on the big stage were lit on, and a line of big characters appeared on the big screen at the same time—— Peerless Jianghu’s First Professional League Team Battle, First Game.
Along with the thunderous applause, Ye Chao greeted. “Hello everyone, the game is about to begin! According to the competition system, the home team will automatically become the first player in the first round, and choose the game mode, map and lineup. The away team has the right to ban up to three secret books, and then send the lineup. After the first round, the home and away games will be exchanged.”
The regular-season points game was held on weekend nights. There were only two rounds in one game. The winner accumulated 5 points and the loser deducted 5 points. There might also be a 1:1 draw where points wouldn’t be deducted to both sides. But in the knockout stage of the playoffs, there would be a decisive game to compare the winner.
Today was Mojue’s home court, so Qin Mo would automatically be the first to choose game mode and the maps in the first round.
Qin Mo sat in the command position and quickly chose the game mode ‘Secret Letter Mode’, then he chose obstacles map ‘Shangyuan Lantern Festival Market’, the lineup was He Beiguang, Pei Yu, Twin Stars’ Han-Mo, and Zhu Qingyue.
There were more than 30 secret books in Peerless Jianghu, including group attack, strong control, single output, healing, array and so on. The setting to ban secret books in team battle was for consideration of the overall tactics. For example, the slow paced healing and auxiliary secret books could be banned if playing fast outbreak; Strong output secret books could be banned if playing defensive. The banned secret books couldn’t be selected by both sides in the game, so the captain must consider it comprehensively.
Xu Sizhe’s psychology was lacking. After careful consideration, he had to ban the two most commonly used output secret books of Qin Mo and Xiao Han, namely ‘Sword Rain Fragrance’ and ‘Bloody Hand’, and then crossed out the ‘Questioning Heart Sutra’ secret book, which had a strong group healing effect.
Seeing this, Ye Chao couldn’t help but comment. “Xu Sizhe probably wants to weaken the joint output of Han-Mo. Twin Stars’ threat is too great. But… his idea of banning secret books is a bit messy, and he didn’t consider Mojue’s lineup and comprehensive consideration in terms of map and mode. If it’s me… Maybe it would be better to ban the long range group control skills?”
Liang Ru agreed. “I also feel that Xu Sizhe seems to ignore Pei Yu’s existence!”
“Pei Yu has a very strong role in this lineup, because he has many strong long-range control skills.” Ye Chao analysed briefly. “It’s probably because Twin Stars put too much pressure on him, so he only banned the usual output secret books of Han-Mo and didn’t consider it from a comprehensive tactical point of view.”
Today, Dynasty team didn’t have a game arrangement, so all the team members watched the live broadcast on the big screen in the training room. Seeing this, Chu Jianxin commented. “Qin Mo obviously wanted to play fast outbreak by taking Pei Yu and chose the obstacles map. What did this Sizhe think? Why didn’t he ban many control field secret books?”
Sang Jun smiled slightly and nodded. “If I’m Xu Sizhe, I will ban all the strong control secret books, and bring anti damage and release control secret books, then I just wait for opportunities to counterattack. It is completely unnecessary for him to ban the single output secret book of ‘Bloody Hand’.”
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.
Chu Jianxin patted Sang Jun’s shoulder and sighed. “He’s not you after all, and he doesn’t understand Qin Mo’s method at all. It is estimated that his head is in a mess at the moment.”

Xu Sizhe still did not have any clear ideas at this stage and gave priority to ‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’ chaos control secret book.
Qin Mo was calm and chose the anti damage secret book ‘Not Broken Deity’ and group control release ‘Clear Heart Mantra’ without hesitation.
Seeing this, Sang Jun sighed. “Qin Mo directly took away the best secret books from the opposite side, so that Mojue could successfully play the tactics of control and quick attack. Instead of rushing to get what he needs most, he took away what the opponent needs the most… is indeed god Mo, whose IQ is crushing across the ten streets.”
Chu Jianxin touched his chin. “Does Xu Sizhe still naively believe in ‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’? There’s no need to give priority to this one.”
“En.” Sang Jun agreed. “Xu Sizhe’s knowledge about the secret books is completely insufficient. In fact, according to the team competition system, the away team has an absolute advantage in banning and selecting secret books, they can ban three and select one first. Xu Sizhe completely wasted this opportunity.”
The so-called ‘bystander sees clearly’, watching the live broadcast, many people saw that Xu Sizhe walked into Qin Mo’s trap, but Xu Sizhe himself did not realize that he had made a mistake. After Qin Mo took away the secret books of anti-damage and control release, he immediately took two more qinggong secret books, trying to solve Twin Stars’ double qinggong tactics…
Sang Jun couldn’t bear to watch it anymore, and it felt like a primary school student doing math problems with the Olympic champion.
He cared so much about Twin Stars that he ignored the others, but now it was a team game, and Twin Stars was just one part of it, not all of it.
***
The stage of choosing secret books alternately soon ended. Except for the three banned secret books, Qin Mo and Xu Sizhe each took half of the rest.
The secret books chosen by both sides were listed on the big screen, and the five players finally sat down in front of the computer and chose what they needed from the secret books taken back by the captain.
In order to avoid too much confusion in the group war stage, the secret book chosen by each player could be seen before the start of the game.
The selection of secret books for all players proceeded at the same time with a time limit of 30 seconds. Xu Sizhe took it for granted that He Beiguang, the opposite side’s meat shield, would choose ‘Immovable Mountain’ to reflect damage, and Qingyue would take ‘Clear Heart Mantra’ to release control. After all, this was a secret book that Qin Mo gave priority to grabbing, right?
However, He Beiguang did not choose ‘Immovable Mountain’, but chose the defensive secret book ‘Vajra Sutra’; Zhu Qingyue also did not choose control release secret book ‘Clear Heart Mantra’, but brought ‘Moonlight Illuminate Water’—— a group continuous damage, and chance to immobilized for 3 seconds. Immediately afterwards, Qin Mo, Xiao Han and Pei Yu also selected secret books one after another, group fear secret book of ‘Scattered Chessboard’, another fear secret book ‘Bodhi Mantra’, single player longest sleep control secret book ‘Reminiscence’…
Except for He Beiguang’s defensive secret book, everyone else took group control and the longest single control secret books!
After selecting the secret books, the five players quickly pressed for confirmation, while five players from Graceful Beauty team were still hesitant. Xu Sizhe was still in a daze state, when Qin Mo grabbed secret books with him just now, he first grabbed those books, but none of them were used?!
Seeing this, Ye Chao couldn’t help but laugh. “Qin Mo is really bad, he grabs the secret books that he doesn’t use. The reason he grabbed these secret books was to prevent the other side from using them.”
Xu Sizhe finally realised this, but it was too late…
Seeing that the 30-second countdown was coming to an end, he immediately hurriedly asked the players to follow the tactics arranged before, with the chaos of ‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’, the transfer damage of ‘Grafting Flowers’, and three output secret books.
“‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’ and ‘Grafting Flowers’ really made Twin Stars suffer a lot in partner competition. Xiao Han also killed Qin Mo several times in chaos.” Ye Chao supported his forehead. “But now it is a team battle ah! There is Zhu Qingyue on the opposite side! Young boy, how confident are you, putting ‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’ in front of Zhu Qingyue? Is he dead?”
Ye Chao used his poisonous tongue and didn’t give any face when commenting. Liang Ru coughed to mend the situation. “After all, it was the first game, and some of the players’ ideas haven’t changed yet. In fact, the use of a chaos secret book can really make the opposite side collapse, let’s just watch the game situation.”
Luo Yuan, who was watching the live broadcast, was also a little amused. “This Sizhe really has courage.” He touched his chin. “I didn’t dare to bring the chaos secret book in front of my junior brother. His position is so far away, unless you can break through Mojue’s defense and go around to the back and confuse him, otherwise, won’t it be in vain if your chaos be solved by him?”
The team who didn’t have a game schedule on the first day, watched the good show in front of the computer.
This was the first game after the start of the league. Xu Sizhe didn’t have a thorough understanding of the league rules and secret books. However, Qin Mo’s practice had provided many captains with new ideas——for example, taking away the secret books most needed by the other party first and cracking the most threatening lineup of the other party—— the stage when Qin Mo and Xu Sizhe chose secret books was simply the best demonstration teaching material for netizens.
***
At the beginning of the game, both sides players refreshed on the opposite corner of the Lantern Festival Market map.
This map was the scene of the Shangyuan Lantern Festival in the game. There were three vertical streets on the map. There were no walls between the streets, but were separated by various exquisite row lanterns with a height of five meters and a length of ten meters. The lanterns were painted with lifelike flowers and trees, insects, fish, birds and other animals, as well as some characters and stories. The whole scene was brightly lit and beautiful.
Mojue’s team members refreshed on the left side of the street, Graceful Beauty refreshed on the right side, while the key NPC of this secret letter mode was in the middle of the street. Players from both sides needed to intercept the messenger, get the secret letter, and give the secret letter to the designated NPC at the refresh point to win.
The essence of this game mode was to rob the Boss, but as the person holding the secret letter would slow down after intercepting the secret letter, as long as the secret letter was not handed over to the designated NPC, the opponent would have a chance to kill the person carrying the secret letter and grab it.
Shortly after the start of the game, the players from both sides rushed to the refresh point of the messenger. The three streets were separated by a row of lanterns, and they could not directly pass through, but they could jump over easily. Qin Mo made an ‘attack’ mark on the map. He Beiguang immediately jumped to the street in the middle, using the ‘Splitting Mountains’ skill, he smashed the messenger head-on!
Kuangdao Gate skills would have an aggro bonus, with a series of combos, he pulled the Boss over. Xiao Han and Qin Mo also jumped to the middle of the street at the same time with qinggong, and started to attack at full power. Following them, Zhu Qingyue weakened the Boss by spinning his umbrella three times, and gave Han-Mo an output buff.
As the flute player of Luoying Valley, Pei Yu still stood on the left street to assist Han-Mo with his long-range sound wave attack to penetrate the obstacles.
Qingyue’s buff allowed the output of the whole team to explode, and Mojue acted uniformly and quickly, knocking out 10% of the Boss’s health in a twinkling of an eye. At this time, Graceful Beauty’s team members finally arrived. Xu Sizhe gave an order, five players flew over to grab the Boss at the same time, but at this moment, a soft white sound wave suddenly penetrated from the other side of the lantern—— Cold River Snow!
There were snowflakes rustling and falling special effects, let Graceful Beauty’s three players in the front row froze!
Fortunately, the healer was far away and not frozen. He immediately used a group release control skill to resolve the frozen state.
Pei Yu used the follow up control skill ‘Broken Bridge’ —— penetrating the obstacles and causing opponents in a straight line to fall into dizziness for 3 seconds!
The angle of this skill was very tricky, so that the meat shield and assassin of the Graceful Beauty team standing in the front row were all stunned. Xu Sizhe was a summoner, standing at the back without being stunned, and seeing that the situation was not good, he decisively opened up the secret book skill ‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’. He wanted all Mojue’s players to fall into chaos and grab back the situation a little.
However, at the moment when he opened his secret book skill, a soft rain curtain fell from the sky—— it was Zhu Qingyue’s invincible umbrella array!
The umbrella array at a timely manner directly blocked the control of this wave, and at the same time gave teammates five seconds of invincible time.
In 5 seconds, perhaps for many unskilled teams, they could only fight little mobs, but with Qingyue’s buff, Han-Mo-Pei unexpectedly reduced Boss’s health by half in one breath!
According to the aggro judgment of the messenger in the secret letter mode, the secret letter would belong to the team who reduced more blood. Mojue had reduced 50% of the messenger’s health now. It was impossible for Graceful Beauty to rob Boss, unless they could destroy Mojue, so the Boss’s aggro would be recalculated.
However… The difficulty of destroying Mojue was as high as heaven!
Xu Sizhe finally found out how stupid he was. The double protection of Zhu Qingyue and He Beiguang made his ‘Tall Mountains Flowing Waters’ and ‘Grafting Flowers’ secret books useless. Seeing that Boss’s health had lessened a lot, Xu Sizhe had to change his mind. “Don’t rob. When Boss dies, we will take advantage of their bad shape to start a team battle!”
This was currently the only method.
In order to kill the messenger Boss, all Mojue’s team members would definitely use a lot of output skills. After they get the secret letter, both sides would be in a full group war. In this way, Graceful team would be in the best state with the remaining blood, if fought a team battle with Mojue’s five players, who spent a lot of blue on skills, hopefully they could snatch away the secret letter.
This was secret letter mode ‘fisherman’s benefit’ method, which was used by many people in the online game arena, and the effect was not bad.
Xu Sizhe asked the team members to stay alert and move around in order to wait for the opportunity to start a team battle. Finally, the health bar of the messenger in front of him was emptied, and a message popped up on the screen: ‘Thousand Miles Ice successfully intercepted the secret letter.’ At the same time as the text message appeared, there was also an icon of a secret letter carrier on Thousand Miles Ice’s head.
The movement speed of the secret letter carrier would be greatly reduced, stealth and qinggong was also not allowed. If Xiao Han wanted to send the secret letter back to his own designated NPC, he must bypass a whole street. Seeing that Xiao Han turned around and was ready to leave, Xu Sizhe immediately ordered. “The secret letter is in his hand, quickly hit him!”
All Graceful Beauty’s team members rushed up immediately, launching all of their big moves to try to kill Xiao Han in seconds…
However, He Beiguang suddenly used ‘Bloody Scent’ skill at this time, which forcefully absorbed all the damage around him, and then used ‘Vajra Sutra’ secret book. This wave of outbreaks only reduced 20% of his health because of his thick skin, coupled with defensive cover of the secret book.
Xiao Han immediately opened ‘Scattered Chessboard’ secret book, a wide range of black-and-white chess pieces appeared, causing damage to the enemy within the area, and also feared the opponent for 2 seconds!
Taking the advantage of these 2 seconds, Xiao Han decisively turned and left.
However, carrying the secret letter, he moved very slowly, and Graceful Beauty’s team members still could catch up with him. Xu Sizhe took a deep breath and stared at the end of 2 seconds of fear…
The group control effect finally ended. Xu Sizhe was just about to use his qinggong to catch up. Zhu Qingyue immediately released ‘Moonlight Illuminate Water’ secret book skill. The soft moonlight shone from the sky, and the enemy within the range was immobilized for 3 seconds!
Xu Sizhe was immobilized and very anxious at this moment, he frowned. “Xiao Xi, go and catch up!”
Tan Xi was a professional assassin like Xiao Han. Hearing this, he immediately used the ‘Golden Cicada Shell’ skill to release the control, and used his invisibility to pursue Xiao Han. However, this step was already within Qin Mo’s calculations, and Qin Mo immediately opened ‘Song of Everlasting Regret’ secret book, and controlled her again.
‘Song of Everlasting Regret’ was the one with the longest control time among all secret books. This single target control skill lasted for 5 seconds, Tan Xi couldn’t move, the healer release control skill was in cooldown. Graceful Beauty’s team members could only stay in place frantically and watch Xiao Han walk away step by step.
When the immobilized effect was finally over, Pei Yu, hiding behind the row of lanterns, came with another set of long-range control fields…
Xu Sizhe finally realised despair at this moment.
Each of the five Graceful Beauty’s players were in a good state, with blood volume more than 80% and sufficient amounts of blue. As long as they killed Xiao Han, they could retrieve the secret letter.
Unfortunately, they just couldn’t catch up with Xiao Han.
Mojue’s Pei Yu himself had a lot of field control skills, coupled with Zhu Qingyue, Xiao Han, Qin Mo also take field control secret books, they could actually achieve seamless control with tacit understanding!
One control after another, immobilization, dizziness, sleep, fear…
Letting Graceful Beauty player’s strength couldn’t be used at all!
No wonder Qin Mo snatched away ‘Clear Heart Mantra’ release control and ‘Immovable Mountain’ anti damage secret books at the beginning, so it was like this! Because these two secret books would interrupt their seamless group control rhythm!
And Xu Sizhe didn’t notice this when he selected the secret books…
***
After a while, Mojue’s set of continuous control finally ended. Xiao Han had already bypassed the street, and was getting closer to the NPC who eventually received the secret letter.
Mojue, whose field control skills were interrupted, could no longer hinder Graceful Beauty players’ steps. However, although their team was fully open, Graceful Beauty still couldn’t take any advantage because of Zhu Qingyue’s various arrays and He Beiguang’s strong pulling skills made them unable to break through Mojue’s defense.
Although Xu Sizhe asked everyone to focus on He Beiguang and emptied his residual blood. The next moment, a news popped up on the screen——
[Thousand Miles Ice] has successfully delivered the secret letter, Mojue team won!
The audience immediately cheered excitedly.
At the end of this round, only He Beiguang was killed. Under the protection of his four teammates, although Xiao Han moved slowly, he successfully delivered the secret letter to the end. It could be said that from the very beginning, Qin Mo’s careful layout made Graceful Beauty completely unable to fight back!
Qin Mo’s IQ crushing style makes the fans on the scene enjoy it, and many netizens on the live broadcast platform were commenting on screen: “I feel sorry for Sizhe, he must feel that his IQ is not enough!”
“If you want to compete with god Mo in the team battle stage, you must first improve your IQ!”
Liang Ru also felt a little distressed for Graceful Beauty team, which lost without using any strength. “Actually, if Xu Sizhe realised that Qin Mo was going to make a quick battle and ban a few more control secret books from the beginning, then he won’t fall into such a miserable situation of being controlled continuously.”
“If he does this, Qin Mo must have other ways to deal with it.” Ye Chao smiled. “However, he didn’t ban field control secret books and just gave Qin Mo a chance to teach everyone.”
The audience also realised how terrible the result would be if a lot of control secret books were chosen by Mojue.
They would connect the control one after another seamlessly, so that their opponents would completely lose their combat effectiveness and watched the victory fall into Mojue’s hand…
This is even more depressing than being killed by the other side in a team battle.
At this time, several young players of Graceful Beauty had the same thought in their hearts—— Mojue’s home court was so terrible, they really wanted to go home!
That was badass~~! ✧٩(•́⌄•́๑)و ✧
Xu Sizhe is really too stupid. He became a captain even though he’s still a newcomer. He has a lot to learn but refused to do so. Now he’s facing the result for being too stubborn. 😪 I wonder what will happen with him in the future…
Thank you for the chapter 💜💜💜
I agreed, he has a wishful thinking to beat Twin Stars while he’s just a newcomer, he needs a lot to learn 🤣
You’re welcome~ ❤
Hahahaha! I actually feel a bit sorry after so much face slapping. But… Not really, after all that’s what he choose. Momo is so mighty! -proud-
Thank you for the chapter!!!!
😘😘❤
Yes, he choose his own ending, no pity for him 👀
You’re welcome~ ❤
Xu sizhe isn’t going to improve his IQ overnight. I think it would be the wisest for him to be vice captain and recruit a more experienced and competent player to be captain. Pro players have short lifespan on the field it wouldn’t be fair for the everyone involved to wait for him to play catch up
That’s right, it will be good for him to hand over the captain position 🤔
xu sizhe is not fit to be a commander. he doesn’t have enough brain cells for tactics. he can stay as a captain but find someone who can be your vice captain and be commander as well, just like dynasty. even the not-so-smart captain chu juanxi can see though qin mo’s intention of choosing the secret book the opponent needed. it’s really painful to watch being miserably beaten like that
So the author finally remembered that healers have an innate release control skill 😂 Before, during the two playe stage, healers would use release control all the time, then in the three-player team stage the healers didn’t use the release control skill at all, and now in the five-player team stage, healers have the release control skill again. I really like the cps, interactions, and dog food of this author, but the game details are really a bit too messy sjsjjsjs
It’s okay, all that really matters is the dog food and sweet interactions in the cps 💖
