At the moment when Li Cangyu and Ling Xuefeng appeared in the commentary room, many netizens could not help but shed tears of sympathy for captain Chen —— Grandmasters, who were not easy to summon, ran to the next room to comment Mojue’s game, but also told him to ‘seek luck for yourself’. Captain Chen was really a pitiful person whose parents didn’t love him!
However, Chen Jiang himself looked relaxed and smiled brightly when he shook hands with Chu Jianxin, Dynasty’s captain, on the big stage.
This game lasted longer than the one in which Mojue fought with Without Fire. Chen Jiang obviously tried his best to win back in the second round after losing the first round. The first two rounds were tied at 1:1 and had to enter the tiebreaker game. Finally, Dynasty team defeated Frost Moon with strong comprehensive strength and won tickets to the finals.
As a result, the final was the battle between Mojue and Dynasty.
This was also expected by Li Cangyu. After all, Frost Moon’s tactics were largely limited by the terrain. It was okay to win one game, and it would be very difficult to win two games in a row, unless Dynasty’s IQ went off. And at this point, Sang Jun obviously couldn’t make such a low-level mistake to give the opponent a chance.
By the time they finished watching the game, it was already 10pm in the evening. Qin Mo took the players to leave quietly through the back door.
There would be a week’s rest after the semi-finals, and the finals would be held next Saturday night. During this week, the league would hold a nationwide voting activity on their official website to prepare for the year-end ceremony. The awards voted include the most popular players and the most popular teams of the eight sects. The league also made a special statistic to classify the players of each team according to the sects.
On the first day when the official voting channel was opened, the online voting competition became extremely fierce, especially the Hanhua Sword sect and Yongye City.
There were many players from Hanhua Sword sect, but only Qin Mo and Lin Shuangcheng had the strength to compete for the most popular prize. Although Qin Mo was questioned many times during this season’s competition, he persisted to this day, especially after winning Without Fire with clever tactics 2:0 in the semi-final, and his popularity climbed to the peak. At the beginning of voting, die-hard fans began to vote madly for Qin Mo. As for Lin Shuangcheng, although the Sword Song team’s performance was not good, captain Lin was good looking, rich second-generation and millions of fans accumulated by the time he was an anchor over the years were extremely powerful.
As a result, Qin Mo and Lin Shuangcheng’s votes were in a stalemate.
For tickets to Yongye City, there were two great gods, Xiao Han and Sang Jun, and the competition was also fierce.
The voting trend of other sects was relatively clear, such as Kuangdao Gate, in addition to the teenager Jing Yang who got some votes, Chu Jianxin almost crushing advantage was at the top of the list; over the Xuanbing Palace, although Liu Hong was very popular, but also could not compete with the popularity advantage accumulated by Nie Yuzhu over the years; Fangcao Hall, healer and poison master were so different that it was voted separately. Zhou Xuewei’s popularity was very stable, and Li Muran also got some votes. Among the poison masters’ votes, Li Junru, the female captain, was at the top of the list, followed by Lin Yao…
Online voting had become more and more lively, and fans from all sides used all of their strength to ask for support on large scale campaigns. Many talented fans had written various short stories, fan fiction and compilation videos in Weibo in order to support their favorite players. Near the end of the year, the video materials of the whole season had been edited into various wonderful clips, and the emergence of countless works had also made the Peerless Jianghu league Weibo Circle achieve unprecedented prosperity.
However, Qin Mo didn’t pay attention to this. There was only one week left before the final. He and Xiao Han had been training with the players these days.
However, Shen He, who loved to watch the liveliness, regularly browsed Weibo every day. Just when he opened the official voting interface today, he found the number of votes of the Zhuge family sect. The ID of Drunken River jumped to second place, which shocked Shen He.
Zhuge family originally had two flows, mechanism flow and bone fan flow. However, because the best player of bone fan flow was Rong Haibin of Frost Moon team, his fame couldn’t be compared with Qiu Zongping and Yuan Xi, and even couldn’t compare with Shen He, Qin Mo’s apprentice, caused the top three in the sects votes was the summoners.
Originally, Shen He had been playing soy sauce in the third place. The first and second were Qiu Zongping and Yuan Xi of Sky team. As a result, he woke up and suddenly changed to second place. When he opened the homepage in horror, he saw someone write an article to support him. “Shen He, a new generation potential summoner personally recognized by god Lun, please vote for little monkey if you like summoner flow!”
The author of this article used a variety of praise words to blow Shen He to the sky. He was god Mo’s apprentice who had received the guidance of two world-class summoners, his grandmasters, god Ling and cat god. He was praised by Su Shilun, the former ace summoner, in his commentary. His hand speed was first-rate, his consciousness was first-rate, and his looks were also first-rate and cute…
Even though Shen He was a little bit narcissistic, it was embarrassing to be praised by this blogger!
What made him even more embarrassed was that the sect’s voting list, Qiu Zongping was the first, Shen He was the second, and Yuan Xi was the third…
Sandwiched between the two men, he felt like being attacked from both sides, he was like a dazzling 100-watt light bulb.
That night, Shen He took a screenshot of the result to the group and complained: “I really don’t want to be sandwiched between them… I just want to be in third place quietly.”
Xiao Han replied bluntly: “This is everyone’s recognition of you, you should be happy.”
Shen He still felt guilty. After all, he was a newcomer, and he was very satisfied with being able to secure third place in the voting where the experts were like a cloud: “But I don’t think my fans will surpass Yuan Xi… After playing for so many years, Yuan Xi has accumulated a much higher popularity than me, right? A supporting article will not make my votes instantly surpass Yuan Xi, right?”

Qin Mo replied calmly: “It should be the passers-by from Wulin side who voted for you. God Lun praised you in his explanation, and he is also a father-level figure in summoners flow. Many passers-by watched the game in the face of Emperor Xiao and god Lun, and when they heard god Lun praise you, they voted for you. Compared with Yuan Xi, your level still has a certain gap, and your popularity is not as good as him, but he apologized and admitted his mistake after the game, so that many people give up on being fans.”

Zhu Qingyue: “There is also the annual championship [smile while covering mouth] [smile while covering mouth].”
Seeing the sudden emergence of great god Qingyue, several teenagers were shocked.
He Beiguang’s mood was complicated: “Does my master also have an obsession with championship?”
Zhu Qingyue: “Of course, I haven’t won the championship for so many years, and I have reached the finals. I also want to win a championship and enjoy myself, and follow along with Mojue [smile].”
Today, he had also personally experienced the significance of a strong team to the individual. Compared with working hard to crawl and roll with a weak team, the feeling of fighting with a strong team would make this period of esports’ years full of blood and excitement.
It had been a long time since he felt his heart beating fiercely. Zhu Qingyue mentioned Qin Mo in the group with a smile: “@QinMo, captain, can you take us to the championship?”
A group of people immediately followed in line: “@QinMo god Mo, we want the championship!”
Even Xiao Han was taking part in the fun: “@QinMo dear, let’s take the championship trophy back to the team.”
Qin Mo smiled slightly, replied with a very simple word: “Okay!”
Although the enthusiastic hope of the players would put some pressure on Qin Mo, everyone knew that for him, this was the best affirmation and encouragement.
Because everyone believed—— god Mo had this strength and could lead everyone to the throne of championship!

In December, the weather in Beijing had become very cold, so everyone had to wear sweaters and thermal underwear, and wore down jackets when going out.
This week, the Mojue team members did not return to the Changsha headquarters, but stayed in Beijing for training. Even though the weather was getting colder and colder, their enthusiasm had never diminished.
On Saturday evening, after having a buffet in the hotel restaurant, everyone set off for the stadium. To Qin Mo’s surprise, he once again saw many familiar faces backstage, such as Lin Shuangcheng, who smiled like a fox. For example, Li Junru, who looked particularly tall in boots and dress, as well as Nie Yuzhu, Chen Jiang, Su Cheng and other old friends, even Xu Sizhe of the Graceful Beauty team, which ranked bottom in the regular season, also came to the scene. Wearing a down jacket, like a heavy bear.
At Qin Mo’s gaze, he looked away awkwardly, his ears were a little red, and he didn’t know whether it was because of cold or embarrassing. On the contrary, Tan Xi who was next to him—— the current captain of Graceful Beauty, who was given away by Xu Sizhe, stood up politely and cheered. “God Mo, good luck for the finals.”
“Is there a plan for the qualifying rules for next season?” Qin Mo asked.
Tan Xi nodded and replied frankly. “Our Graceful Beauty is at the bottom of this season and will be eliminated by the league at the end of the season, but we are still qualified to compete with the non-governmental teams in the next season’s qualifiers. The news I got is that the league will open two more places next season and we will strive for them. Hope to see you again next season.”
Compared with Xu Sizhe, who shrank at the side and turned his head to be embarrassed to speak, this girl was much more generous.
Qin Mo nodded and encouraged them. “Good luck, too, and look forward to your good news.”
One was the championship team that was about to make an impact on the annual championship, and the other was the team that had to face the fate of elimination and must start from scratch to win the qualifiers.
The disparity between both teams was great, but at this moment, Xu Sizhe somehow felt…
In fact, everyone was the same. There was no distinction between noble and low class.
They were working hard for their own goals, but the goals were big and small. Qin Mo’s goal was championship, and Graceful Beauty’s goal was to avoid relegation.
In this circle, everyone’s goals were different. For example, some teams, such as Sword Song, the goal of this season was only to form a special swordsman team; Some teams like Interlude, Whisper, was on the premise of grinding players and didn’t get eliminated as far as possible, to prepare for the future—— and for Xu Sizhe’s biggest mistake, was not to recognize their own strength, set the goal too high.
The level of primary school students, but wanting to win the international Mathematical Olympiad competition, was this not nonsense?
Xu Sizhe laughed at himself and looked at the back of the members of the Mojue team who were leaving—— He didn’t want to be generous enough to cheer Qin Mo on, but he would cheer himself on. Graceful Beauty, this team formed by him couldn’t be dissolved in his hands. From today on, set a small goal: play a good qualifier, keep the league seat next season!

For a whole week, he hadn’t seen Sang Jun, so meeting him backstage in the corridor, Qin Mo took the initiative to shake hands with him.
Sang Jun smiled and greeted him. “God Mo, let’s have dinner later than after the game. Captain Tan wants to invite you to eat midnight snacks.”
“Captain Tan?” Qin Mo was a little confused by this invitation.
“When captain Tan and god Wei supported you in the Weibo before, they said they wanted to invite you to a meal,” Sang Jun replied. “They are serious, and don’t joke about it.”
At that time, there were too many forwarded messages on Weibo. He remembered that Tan Shitian of Huaxia club and Cheng Wei once said ‘Come to Beijing to invite you to a meal’. He thought it was out of politeness, but he didn’t expect the other party to take it seriously. Qin Mo’s heart felt wam, smiling. “No problem, but I should come to treat them.”
“Let’s make an appointment first.” Sang Jun replied.
The other team members were a little confused. It was going to be a final game soon. There was no smell of gunpowder between both captains. Was it alright to have a midnight snack together?

At this moment, the light in the commentary room finally turned on, and there was a burst of deafening applause!
The applause was a bit exaggerated. Everyone looked up on the live screen, and it was because of the appearance of the guest commentator.
And this time, the guest commentator was indeed Chuan-Wen, plus Ye Chao and Liang Ru. There were four people sitting in the commentary room, and the appearance was very spectacular.
“Good evening everyone!” Ye Chao immediately greeted the audience. “This is the scene of Peerless Jianghu first professional league final! Today, we specially invited two giant god-level commentators. I think the face of one of them is already very familiar. After all, he is the only player in the professional league who can hold the hatred of the audience by his face alone!”
Liang Ru immediately followed. “That’s right, handsome giant god Liu Chuan, please say hello to the audience?”
“Hello everyone, long time no see!” Liu Chuan brazenly greeted everyone.
The comments immediately flood the live broadcast room: “F*ck, he is a guest commentator, I suddenly don’t want to watch the game!”
“The first excavator of the league is on the scene, everyone escapes quickly!”
“God Chuan, you are not handsome, but your face has become thicker!”
“Wu Zewen threw an iPad from the sidelines, Liu Chuan: Die!”
Netizens began to flood the screen crazily and scold commentator Liu Chuan, which was also a miracle of the commentary world…
Seeing the barrage, Liu Chuan smiled. “It’s a great honor. Although I’ve been out of the circle for a long time, the hatred value has increased instead of falling. Thank you for loving me so much.”
Netizens immediately began to flood the screen: “Who loves you, have some face!”
“Did you put your face on Zewen?”
“Liu Chuan didn’t go out with his face today.”
Ye Chao continued. “This guest commentator, I believe everyone is very familiar with, is our league’s top student, classmate Wu Zewen! He once won a big prize in a physics competition. The audience who want to take the final exam can pay their respects to this top student as soon as possible.”
Wu Zewen supported his glasses on the top of his nose, and greeted everyone. “Good evening everyone.”
The style of comments in the live broadcast room immediately changed: “Worship the top student, and seek the sixth grade smoothly!”
“Top student, bless me not to fail at the end of the term!”
“I want to take an examination at Tsinghua University!”
Wu Zewen: “……”
Looking at the on-screen barrage, Wu Zewen still looked calm, as if filtering out all the junk information with his glasses and going straight to the point. “Today’s game is Mojue VS Dynasty, right?”
Ye Chao chimed in. “Indeed, after a whole year of fighting, the two teams with very strong comprehensive strength, Mojue and Dynasty finally entered the annual championship competition.”
“Has Zewen analysed both teams?” Liang Ru asked.
“I have done some data sorting,” Wu Zewen replied seriously. “Dynasty team’s performance has been very stable throughout the season, and it has been a strong team model with steady development since the single-player competition. Mojue’s results are relatively up and down, especially in the three-players competition in the second half of the year, and even lost five games in the initial stage. However, after this trough, the growth rate of Mojue’s players is also very amazing.”
“So far, from the data point of view, which side has stronger overall strength?” Ye Chao wondered.
“Both teams have a similar strength,” Wu Zewen explained. “Chu Jianxin, Dynasty’s captain, is the most powerful counterattack meat shield in the league. Sang Jun, Wen Hua’s assassination ability and Lin Yao’s long-range kite ability are all of the league’s first-class standards. The remaining four players play very steadily. There is no doubt about Xiao Han’s strength. Qin Mo and Liu Hong are also very strong in field control output. Qingyue is a trump card auxiliary. Therefore, on the whole, both Dynasty and Mojue have four ace players and four newcomers.”
Liu Chuan interjected. “Zewen said very well, from the lineup point of view, both teams are equal, but the advantage is far apart. Although Chu Jianxin is the first meat shield, Dynasty’s attack is actually stronger, because he is a counter-attack type of meat shield, not only can defend, but if the anti-damage shield is well grasped, he will also bounce back the opponent’s key moves. On the other hand, due to the existence of Zhu Qingyue, the defensive ability will be stronger.”
Wu Zewen looked back at him and replied. “You entered the role of guest commentator so quickly? I thought you were going to continue to be poor and hated.”
Liu Chuan touched his nose and smiled. “How dare I! Zewen came with an iPad today.”
“Is there any allusion here?” Ye Chao was curious, “Is it true that god Chuan is afraid of Zewen’s iPad?”
Liu Chuandao: “Back then, when I was a handsome young fresh idol player, Zewen liked to play games with iPad. Once I made him angry, he hit me with the iPad. Therefore, my fans summed up my death method. The first one is: Wu Zewen raised the iPad, Liu Chuan died.”
At that moment, Wu Zewen really raised his iPad, and Liu Chuan immediately went to hide beside him. Ye Chao laughed and had a stomach ache, he didn’t expect god Chuan to be a henpecked husband.
But instead of smashing it at him, Wu Zewen calmly pulled a document out of iPad and said seriously to the camera. “I have analysed the data of all the players here, which can be used as a reference when I comment later.”
Everyone: “……”
Zewen was simply a clear stream among the guest commentators!
Seeing this, Qin Mo couldn’t help but laugh. Their styles were so different, but they sat together in harmony…
Qin Mo had seen Zewen’s iPad when he was in Dragon Song. There was a lot of precious data in it, for him to actually bring it to the scene. Top student really had the spirit of studying.
Seemingly to be aware of what Qin Mo was thinking, Xiao Han also smiled slightly, while the people around didn’t pay attention to, gently shook Qin Mo’s palm.
Xiao Han was cheering him up.
Qin Mo looked back at Xiao Han, and also gave him a smile.
Then, with all the members of the Mojue team, in warm applause, they stepped onto the final stage of the annual championship!
Seeing Liu Chuan‘s and Wu Zewen‘s interaction, I really want to read the first book! 😂
Anyway, I’m looking forward to the match~~
Thank you for the chapter 💜💜💜
Lol I also want to see the shameless Liu Chuan in first book 😏
You’re welcome~ 💕
