"Ah?!"
Upon hearing Fearless's words, Uranus was instantly dumbfounded.
The boss is personally playing the ga? What kind of ridiculous operation is this? Can it be done like this?
Uranus had been in the esports scene for a long ti, and while he had seen bosses play matches before, most of the ti, these bosses were just playing for fun, stepping in to play a few rounds against weaker opponents.
But to see soone like Evil Rampage take charge and lead his team to victory while also being a key player was sothing Uranus had never witnessed before.
...
Those who can invest in esports clubs are not short on money, and soone like Evil Rampage is certainly not soone who can be compared to regular workers.
Evil Rampage not participating in matches would only an missing out on the fun of facing top-tier opponents, while if Uranus didn't compete, he would lose a high-paying job.
Europeans have always enjoyed instant gratification and generally have no habit of saving money, and Uranus was no different. Although his salary was extrely high, his expenditures were equally high. If he really retired, he would definitely struggle to adapt to a simpler life.
"I know what you're thinking." Seeing Uranus's expression, Fearless smiled and said, "You're definitely not convinced, right?"
"Hmph! If it weren't for his position, how could you compare to Evil Rampage?" Uranus said, extrely unconvinced.
"Hehe!" Fearless replied calmly, "The mont you have that thought, you've already lost!"
At this point, Fearless pointed at Wang Yu and said, "Do you know who he is? He's the eldest son of our club's investor... In other words, Evil Rampage is just a younger brother in front of him."
"Forgive for my rudeness!"
Wang Yu humbly clasped his fists towards Uranus.
"This..."
This ti, Uranus was completely crushed.
Well, other bosses playing with their teams are just filling numbers, letting a group of experts carry them; but these two brothers are actually getting their teammates to fill in while they lead...
This is simply unbelievable.
What surprised Uranus even more was that the person in front of him was actually Evil Rampage's biological brother. Thinking of his earlier scheming, Uranus felt his face flush with embarrassnt.
While they were talking, Evil Rampage had already submitted the contracts of the two to the judging panel.
After verification, the contracts were confird to be valid.
Esports is a sacred competitive sport, and using such dirty ans to achieve victory is absolutely unacceptable. The audience despises match-fixing the most, and after Uranus's actions were substantiated, no one could help him.
After discussions among the judges, Uranus was forcibly disqualified from the match and sentenced to a three-year ban. Evil Rampage, having reported the incident and not engaged in any match-fixing behavior, received no punishnt and could return to the competition.
However, Evil Rampage did not return to the arena but instead announced his permanent retirent on the spot.
"Retiring? Why?"
Upon hearing Evil Rampage's decision, everyone looked puzzled.
Evil Rampage was strong and young, at the peak of his career. Why would he suddenly retire?
"I am Chinese!" Evil Rampage said passionately. "I participated in competitions to bring glory to my country, but encountering such a situation where soone wants to pay to intentionally lose has left deeply disappointed in the esports industry. Can national pride really be bought with money? Now that I've made this decision, even if I continue, there probably won't be a place for in the esports scene anymore. I believe my teammates can do even better."
Having said that, Evil Rampage walked down from the podium, leaving behind an impressive silhouette.
As they watched Evil Rampage leave, the audience erupted into thunderous applause.
Can national pride really be bought with money? Exposing the dirty side of the esports scene was taught by Fearless, but this statent ca from Evil Rampage's heartfelt feelings.
Although Evil Rampage was a businessman, as a martial artist, he had his own pride and bottom line. After all, even a despicable group like the Quan Zhen Sect wouldn't be solely driven by profit in such matters. Evil Rampage certainly wouldn't tolerate any impurity.
...
The departures of Uranus and Evil Rampage indeed surprised and disappointed everyone.
One side had lost its commander, and the other its star player, both teams were severely weakened, but the match still had to continue.
Under the system's arrangent, both teams were transported to the final battleground.
The third match took place on a map called "Terror Cetery", which was neither large nor small but had very distinctive features.
The cetery was lined with rows of graves, and in this fantastical world, ghosts and spirits truly existed.
Therefore, the graves were imbued with dark attributes; any player stepping into the grave's range would be forcibly slowed down.
The cetery's graves were closely packed, with little ground to stand on. In a team fight, who would look at their feet? Thus, this map was practically a full-screen slowdown map.
It seed that fighting on a graveyard wouldn't be so easy.
As soon as both teams entered the arena, they were imdiately hit with a map-wide debuff.
Cursed Ground: You have been cursed by the Dark Soul, your movent speed is reduced by 50%.
"Damn, damn, damn, damn!"
Seeing the curse on him, Ming complained, "Choosing this kind of map, the Pantheon is too cruel."
"Don't worry!" Spring Halo waved his hand and said, "Since everyone is slowed down, it won't make much difference."
"Swish!"
As soon as Spring Halo finished speaking, the opposing Protheus pointed his staff at the ground, and a burst of flas spread outwards.
Imdiately, everyone in the Pantheon found their feet wrapped in flas.
Sure enough, this 'Ten Thousand Flas' was a group support skill!
"Damn! That's too insidious!" Seeing this, Spring Halo was utterly frustrated.
The movent speed boost from 'Ten Thousand Flas' could completely negate the map's slowdown effect, and Poseidon also had a large area slowdown skill like 'Frozen Lands.' In this way, it was a mutual cancellation, and wouldn't everyone just be standing there waiting to be slaughtered?
"It's not a big deal!" Wang Yu laughed and said, "Just don't step on the graves, and it will be fine."
"I..."
Hearing Wang Yu's words, everyone felt even more frustrated. It was one thing for the opponents to be cunning; they had their own teammate being smug about it.
"Alright, enough nonsense!" Fearless waved his hand and said, "The opponents are about to attack, don't let your guard down."
With Fearless's command, Crotch Lord rushed to the front of the team, holding up his shield to protect the others behind him.
Then Fearless turned around and said, "We're ready to roar; Old Bull, it's up to you this ti!"
"Leave it to !!"
Wang Yu nodded, leaped over the graves, and jumped directly towards the mbers of the Pantheon.
"Athena, stop him!"
Everyone present knew Wang Yu's abilities and had no doubt that he could independently charge into the enemy's ranks. Seeing Wang Yu jump over, Zeus hurriedly gave Athena in the front line orders.
