The King's Avatar: Boss Yanyu marries Yunxiu

Chapter 196: First round of playoffs, starts
In order to sign Su Mucheng, Chu Yunxiu and others were willing to take a pay cut in the next season, but Wang Zi did not reveal this.

The most important thing now is not how to sign Su Mucheng.

Ye Xiu has already agreed to join Misty Rain, so Su Mucheng is included in the bundle and cannot escape.

The most important thing for Yanyu now is the Glory playoffs starting in two days.

In the playoffs of the ninth season, the key is how the Yanyu Team will compete for the championship and how to achieve the Yanyu Team's second consecutive championship.

This season, Yanyu has the best record and their opponent in the first round of the playoffs is Team 301.

This year's 301 team has also been strengthened. They not only introduced Glory's chief judoka Li Yihui, but also introduced the EU professional master Bai Shu from abroad.

Together with the captain of 301, Yang Cong, 301 has formed a team of three giants this year.

It’s just that Li Yihui, the giant, is a fake giant. With his wrong mentality, it is difficult for him to return to the peak.

But no matter what, the strength of the 301st Team has been greatly enhanced.

Being able to make the playoffs this year is a good proof.

In addition to these two signings, another key factor that improved the 301 team's record was the change in Yang Cong's playing style this season.

Yang Cong is the No. 1 assassin player in Glory. He debuted with Wang Jiexi, and like Wang Jiexi, he is one of the few good captains in the Glory League who sacrifices his personal honor for the team.

Everyone knows that the assassin has an extremely powerful killer skill - a fatal attack. It was thanks to Ji Leng's fatal attack on Ye Xiu that Tyranny defeated Excellent Era in the finals and won the first championship in team history.

However, Yang Cong, the chief assassin player of Glory, has never made a fatal attack in a team competition.

Without the assassin's threat of a fatal strike, the combat effectiveness would naturally be greatly reduced.

There is a saying that goes, you don't have to risk your life, but you must know how to risk your life.

This is the only way to threaten and deter the enemy.

But Yang Cong never has to risk his life in a team match, so he has no way to intimidate the enemy.

But why doesn't he use it?

That's because a skill like Fatal Strike is a fatal move that means both sides will die. Once Yang Cong uses it, although he can kill his opponent, he will also become low on health, which is almost equivalent to exchanging his life for the opponent's.

If Yang Cong was just an ordinary main player of the 301 Team, it would not be a big deal if he exchanged his life with his opponent, and it would not be a loss.

But he was the captain of the 301st, and the 301st was a weak team. Once he and his opponent died together, there would be only a group of teammates of average strength left, and there would be no one to command the battle.

So, for the sake of the team, he sacrificed his strongest killer move, just to make the team better.

This kind of sacrifice is exactly the same as that of Wang Jiexi of the Weicao team.

In order to help his teammates adapt to his rhythm, Wang Jiexi gave up the magician style of play.

In order to keep motivating his teammates, Yang Cong gave up the life-threatening killing move.

However, this year, the team introduced two god-level players, Li Yihui and Bai Shu. Bai Shu, in particular, is a tactical command-type knight player. With Bai Shu, even if Yang Cong and his opponent died together, Bai Shu would continue to lead the team to fight.

Therefore, this season, Yang Cong no longer needs to hide himself, but can fight boldly and be a real assassin player again.

This also caused the 301st's performance to soar.

Wang Zi was not careless about the 301 Team.

The current 301 is definitely a strong team, and Yang Cong, who has a fatal blow, is definitely a dangerous person.

Two days before the game, Wang Zi led Yanyu and others to study how to deal with 301.

By watching the game video of Team 301, we concluded that the best way is to let one person trade one with Yang Cong.

And the most suitable candidate is Li Hua.

Both of them were Night Elf branches, one was an assassin and the other was a ninja, with similar occupational characteristics. If Li Hua could get close to Yang Cong and die together with Yang Cong, it would be the best outcome for the Misty Rain Team. As for the remaining Li Yihui and Bai Shu, Wang Zi and the others had plenty of ways to deal with them.

The key issue is whether Yang Cong is willing to trade one for one with Li Hua, which depends on Li Hua's performance.

As long as Li Hua can entangle Yang Cong and prevent Yang Cong from splitting himself to deal with others, then Yang Cong’s threat will not exist.

After the tactics were properly arranged, the Yanyu Team finally made its debut in the playoffs.

The match between Yanyu and 301 is also the first playoff match of the ninth season.

The first game was played at Yanyu’s home stadium.

Because of Yanyu's current surge in popularity, the Olympic Stadium that was rented during the regular season can no longer meet the needs of the Yanyu team.

So for the playoffs, Yanyu rented the Suzhou City Center Gymnasium, which can accommodate 50,000 spectators.

Fifty thousand tickets, with an average price of three hundred yuan each, were sold out within a day, and many audience members were unable to buy tickets.

Fifty thousand tickets, with an average price of three hundred, the total revenue from tickets alone is 1500 million!
This is the influence that Yanyu had after winning the championship last year.

If Yanyu and 301 can play to the third game, Yanyu can then hold one more playoff game and collect at least 15 million more in ticket revenue.

It is no wonder that the league strictly prohibits match-fixing and imposes severe penalties on match-fixing.

A fake match can earn tens or hundreds of millions of yuan in profits. How many officials can resist such temptation?

However, Yanyu's goal is to become the champion, and she will not ruin her future for a small sum of money like 10 or 20 million.

On June 6th, at 16: p.m., the first round of the playoffs of the Glory Season Professional League began.

Members of the Misty Rain Team and the 301 Team all stood on the center stage of the stadium.

Chu Yunxiu smiled and extended her right hand towards Yang Cong: "Captain Yang, congratulations on making it to the playoffs this season."

Yang Cong also smiled and shook hands with Chu Yunxiu gently: "Congratulations."

Chu Yunxiu smiled and said, "But I'm afraid your journey to the playoffs ends here."

Yang Cong showed no sign of weakness: "If that's the case, I can only accept it, but I believe that it will be our 301 who will advance."

"Then it depends on the performance of your 301st unit."

After the two captains briefly greeted each other, both sides returned to their seats and waited for the referee to confirm the player information.

After confirmation, the five-man list for the ring match was announced.

The five people participating in the competition on Yanyu's side are: Wang Zi, Zhang Jiale, Li Hua, Chu Yunxiu and Lu Yining.

The five people participating in the competition on the 301 side are: Yang Cong, Li Yihui, Gao Jie, Zhang Yang, and Bai Shu.

There is nothing surprising about the starting lineup, as they are the five players with the strongest singles ability on both teams.

Perhaps the only surprising thing is the first match between Wang Zi and Yang Cong.

Yang Cong is also a veteran player in the league. He debuted together with Wang Jiexi. Although he did not shock the entire league as Wang Jiexi did upon his debut, Yang Cong’s talent is not bad either, and he has been among the top players in recent years.

Wang Zi is a talented newcomer who suddenly emerged last year. In his rookie season last year, he defeated three titled gods and was the talk of the town.

Facing Glory's chief assassin today, can Wang Zi still put on a dominant performance?

When the list of contestants was announced, most netizens on the Internet were optimistic that Yang Cong would win.

After all, the assassin profession is the nemesis of the meat shield profession.

Yang Cong also has a nickname, which is the meat shield killer. He is a lone assassin that all the meat shield professional players in the league are afraid of.
