Chapter 228 –  Post-Match Interview

Li Cangyu hugged Bai Xuan as soon as he got off the player seats. If Bai Xuan had abandoned his teammate at the crucial moment then it wouldn't have been so easy to kill LIng Xuefeng. Li Cangyu only had a bit of blood left when Ling Xuefeng died. It was obvious how important the adding of blood and transfer of blue before Bai Xuan died was.

They had been walking side by side for so many years and mainly faced failure together. Today, they finally joined hands to receive the crown of the champions.h.i.+p!

There was no need to express too much grat.i.tude between the old partners. There was just a tight hug but Bai Xuan naturally understood.

As he was hugged by Li Cangyu, Bai Xuan also felt moved. He had watched Li Cangyu's hard work all those years. If it wasn't for Li Cangyu's firm beliefs then he wouldn't have persisted to the end.

The management and fans of Canglan who came to the venue saw Cat G.o.d and Vice-Captain Bai hugging and a few of them couldn't help crying.

They had been waiting for this moment!

Their favourite players experienced so many twists and turns, from the team disbanding twice to returning with a new team. They finally reached today's finals and worked together to win in the deciding game!

Winning the champions.h.i.+p was a dream that Li Cangyu and Bai Xuan had buried in their hearts when they were young. They had been working hard for this dream but in each season, their team was always far away from the champions.h.i.+p.

Today, as if they were dreaming, the brand new Canglan team climbed through the thorns all this way and finally won the champions.h.i.+p of the seventh season!

People were happy for Canglan and proud of Cat G.o.d and Vice-Captain Bai!

Li Cangyu walked towards his teammates and immediately received a warm embrace from everyone. The four teenagers surrounded the captain while Old Zhang hugged everyone. The always lively man was really excited at this moment.

The Canglan fans saw this scene and suddenly couldn't make a sound. The team's emblem was lifted up high and the posters were waved in the hands of those wearing a neat white uniform, forming a white and blue ocean!

In the commentators' room, Yu Bing was shaking with excitement. "Congratulations to Cat G.o.d, congratulations to Canglan! The champions.h.i.+p of the seventh season belongs to the Canglan team! Perhaps this is beyond the expectations of many people but the Canglan members personally proved it to everyone. They won in the finals and really have the strength to win the champions.h.i.+p!"

Kou Hongyi was affected by Yu Bing's emotions and his voice was also high-pitched. "Canglan and Wind Colour, this finals match was very fierce. I think this match will definitely be a cla.s.sic match in the history of Miracle. It will be reviewed and studied repeatedly by future professional players."

"At 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, the Miracle League will hold the awards ceremony for the seventh season! All types of awards will be revealed. Please wait and see!"

"The finals of the seventh season is over but the Miracle journey isn't over. The World Compet.i.tion is coming and the rules regarding the selection of the national team will come. Please keep an eye on the official website of the Miracle League!"

"Audience members, see you again tomorrow!"

The two hosts summed things up and the live broadcast video was closed. Still, many viewers were reluctant to leave the room and kept celebrating Canglan's win. Everyone was still immersed in the fierce compet.i.tion and watched the slow motion replay that relive every detail of the game.

***

After Li Cangyu and his team members hugged, they went to Wind Colour's soundproof room to shake hands.

The Wind Colour members were very graceful. They might've lost but they acted generously, especially the captain Ling Xuefeng. He took the initiative to extend his arms and hug Li Cangyu. Then he whispered, "You played very well. You are deserving of this champions.h.i.+p."

Li Cangyu's mood was particularly pleasant after the other person's acknowledgement. He hugged Ling Xuefeng and smiled. "You are very powerful. I don't know how many brain cells died in order to win against you today."

This seemed to be a joke but it was the most direct expression of Li Cangyu's heart. It was too hard to win against Ling Xuefeng. He racked his brains in the past few days and killed many brain cells formulating various strategies. Today's game was very thrilling. If it wasn't for his powerful teammates, Canglan wouldn't be able to win today.

As the strongest opponents, they were very familiar with each other's strength. There was some component of luck involved in the result. In particular, in the guard stage of the deciding game, it was obvious that Li Cangyu and Bai Xuan had a higher tacit understanding than Ling Xuefeng and He Qun.

Ling Xuefeng heard this and guessed that Li Cangyu hadn't slept well in recent days. He couldn't help saying softly, "Yet you still won. After so many years, you finally won the champions.h.i.+p. I am really happy for you."

Li Cangyu tightened his grip. "Thank you Xuefeng."

He knew that Ling Xuefeng wasn't a narrow-minded person and Ling Xuefeng wasn't bothered by the loss in the finals. Ling Xuefeng's congratulations were sincere. They had known each other for many years and understood each other's thoughts.

The two people hugged for a long time while their teammates stared at them blankly. As if becoming aware of the eyes of their teammates, Li Cangyu patted Ling Xuefeng's shoulder, pushed him away and continued shaking hands with the other members of Wind Colour.

“Congratulations to Cat G.o.d.” Vice-Captain Yan Ruiwen spoke politely.

The other players followed suit and shook Li Cangyu's hand. "Congratulations!"

Bai Xuan also received respect when shaking hands with He Qun. "Vice-Captain Bai, you are worthy of being a G.o.d level healer. I admit defeat."

Bai Xuan's smile was very warm. "A blood kin sacrifice is difficult to play. You are also outstanding."

Xiao Han took the initiative to go to Qin Mo. "Good friend, I won."

Qin Mo almost spat out blood. "Hey, do you have to be so proud?"

Xiao Han's face was blank. "I'm proud? I'm just reporting an objective fact."

Qin Mo, "…"

This person looked simple and didn't have a mocking personality, but his half-baked Chinese was really irritating! In desperation, Qin Mo learnt from his master and hugged the mixed-race boy in front of him. "Yes, you are amazing. Congratulations on winning the champions.h.i.+p."

Xiao Han replied seriously, "You're welcome. Continue to play with me in the arena in the future. Don't be disheartened because you lost."

Qin Mo, "…"

Your sister!

Li Cangyu heard his apprentice and Qin Mo's conversation and really admired Xiao Han's lack of awareness.

The two princes stared at each other before Xiao Han finally extended his hand. "Goodbye, I hope to see you in the national team."

Qin Mo's heart was slightly moved. He was just a newcomer. Was there a chance for him to be selected for the national team?

He seriously looked at Xiao Han and suddenly felt that his whole body was full of motivation. No matter what, he had to fight for a spot. This opportunity was only reserved for prepared people. How would he know if he didn't fight?

***

Compared to the fierceness of the finals, the image of the players shaking hands was particularly warm.

The Wind Colour and Canglan fans were arguing with each other, only to feel there was no meaning when they saw this scene. The rhythm of the comments slowed down. The captains really didn't cooperate. The fans were noisy for so long, only for the captains to hug intimately!

[Scatter, stop arguing!] [Captain Ling and Cat G.o.d are hugging so happily while we are here arguing!]

The two sides split up and started to focus on the live broadcast of the interviews.

According to the usual practice, the losing team must be interviewed first. Ling Xuefeng arrived at the interview room with Vice-Captain Yan Ruiwen. He didn't bring other players because he was afraid the young players would be bombarded by the reporters. Vice-Captain Yan had been in the league for many years and the reporters always gave the two old players a bit of face.

Ling Xuefeng looked so serious that the reporters didn't dare to ask questions that were too sharp.

A female reporter with a ponytail stood up and asked Yan Ruiwen, "Vice-Captain Yan, I heard that you are usually responsible for the team training. What special training was done for the finals?"

Yan Ruiwen smiled and replied, "We did intensive training according to Captain Ling's arrangements. You can see that in today's finals, Wind Colour sent a lot of combinations that never played in the regular season, such as Qin Mo and Xu Feifan's double blood kin summoner combination. If they didn't carry out intensive training before the game then they couldn't have played as well."

"Do you feel that the team members played very well today?" The reporter asked sharply. "Even if the result is a loss?"

"There will always be a winner and a loser in the game. You can't deny the players' efforts just because the result is a loss." Yan Ruiwen smiled and answered seriously. "The Wind Colour members played with their own strength and to their own standards. I think everyone can calmly accept this outcome."

Of all the vice-captains in the Miracle League, Yan Ruiwen was the most low-key. It was precisely because Ling Xuefeng was so harsh and tough that Yan Ruiwen's milder way of doing things released tension in Wind Colour.

He answered the questions without leaking anything. The reporters couldn't ask anything else and s.h.i.+fted targets. "Captain Ling, today's finals was very exciting but I found a special phenomenon. Both Wind Colour and Canglan lost at home. The home court advantage of the regular season was broken. What do you think of this?"

Ling Xuefeng replied casually, "It is just a coincidence. In the first Wind Colour game, Li Cangyu's tactical arrangement was very clever. I didn't expect him to use the tombstones to steal the fire dragon. In the third game, it was an arena game and it was reasonable for Li Cangyu to target the Wind Colour lineup. They gained a big advantage in advance, so that Wind Colour couldn't recover the situation."

Captain Ling didn't forget to praise Li Cangyu as an opponent. The female reporter followed up with another question. "How do you think Cat G.o.d played today?  As the strongest opponents, what do you think about him winning the champions.h.i.+p?"

"Li Cangyu is an outstanding player. Frustration and difficulties didn't defeat him. On the contrary, it made him stronger." Ling Xuefeng's eyes swept over the audience as he spoke. "He has come here step by step through the years. It really wasn't easy. Today, his commanding was excellent and it is reasonable for him to win."

"I heard that you have a good private relations.h.i.+p. Were you emotionally more inclined to let Cat G.o.d win the champions.h.i.+p?"

"No." Ling Xuefeng's answer was very decisive. "First of all, I am the captain of Wind Colour. I will take it seriously no matter who I play against. Wind Colour did their best today and the result was due to Canglan's efforts. It would be an insult to him if I deliberately threw the game to let him win the champions.h.i.+p."

The reporters felt great admiration for Ling Xuefeng's words. In fact, true respect for a player was fighting against them with all our strength. It wasn't clear how great Captain Ling and Cat G.o.d's private feelings were but in today's game, both sides did their best and left a cla.s.sic match that all spectators would remember.

A reporter asked, "Barely missing out the champions.h.i.+p, do you have a bit of regret in your heart?"

Ling Xuefeng said, "I have done my best and witnessed Li Cangyu's team winning the seventh season of the champions.h.i.+p. As his friend and opponent for many years, I have no regrets."

The reporters warmly clapped the broad-minded Captain Ling.

He could accept the results so calmly while giving admiration and blessings to the opponent. Ling Xuefeng was the captain of Wind Colour for a reason. He was calm, stable and wasn't stingy enough to calculate the gains and losses of a match.

Chapter 229 – Post-Match Interview (End)

Wind Colour's interview finished and it was the Canglan team's turn. The reporters were surprised to find that all eight members of the Canglan team came to the interview room. The excited reporters immediately welcomed the winning team with dazzling flashes and warm applause.

The female reporter who just boldly asked Ling Xuefeng a question immediately stood up. "First of all, congratulations to the Canglan team for winning the champions.h.i.+ps! I want to ask Cat G.o.d, did you think you could win before the match?"

Li Cangyu took the microphone and smiled. "I didn't think too much before the match. I just decided to do my best in this finals. At the very least, I can be the runner-up and touch a trophy, which is better than before."

His small joke caused some reporters to turn red. Before each match, they would write that the Canglan team would lose and Cat G.o.d would once again miss the playoffs. Fortunately, today those reporters could finally praise Canglan.

Bai Xuan took the microphone. "We were all prepared to lose the moment we found out the opponent was Wind Colour. After all, the strength of the Wind Colour team is too strong and it is hard to win against them. Some elements of luck were involved in our victory today."

After Bai Xuan's words, a reporter who liked this milk dad immediately stood up and cried out excitedly, "Vice-Captain Bai's cooperation with Cat G.o.d in the guard stage today really made us open our eyes! In particular, your vision was darkened by Captain Ling yet you could blindly add blood to Cat G.o.d. This judgment ability is too amazing!"

Bai Xuan was humble. "At that time, his blood volume was very dangerous. If I didn't add blood to him, it was likely he would've been killed by Captain Ling. I could only gamble. It is also because we have been working together for too long. I am familiar with his positioning and could make a bet in the key moment."

This man's voice was always soft when answering questions. The person who looked gentle impressed everyone with his decisive performance in the finals.

"At the last minute, Vice-Captain Bai gave up on yourself and handed over your blue to Cat G.o.d. This action made many fans feel touched. Can you tell us what your thoughts were at the time?"

“At the time, I had a limited amount of blue and Captain Ling was suppressing me. I couldn't guarantee the blood of both of us. I decided it was better to give my resources to Cat G.o.d to take care of it. I believe in his personal ability. As long as I gave this to him before dying, I believed he could release the highest outbreak without any worries. The facts proved that Cat G.o.d could create a miracle."

Li Cangyu was praised by his old partner and couldn't help smiling happily. He patted Bai Xuan on the shoulder and said, "I have been with Xiao Bai for seven years. We faced countless failures and climbed up from the bottom. We are more like family members. In the most crucial moment, Xiao Bai always knows what I need the most. He volunteered to give his blue to me at the key moment and this was simply helping me in my hour of need."

The two people smiled and many reporters were touched by this scene. The friends.h.i.+p between them was truly liked loved ones. They had been old partners for many years and finally reached the peak of the Miracle Professional League. They really deserved it, showing their strength and qualifications!

Warm applause filled the venue. This was applause for Li Cangyu and Bai Xuan, the old partners who experienced twists and turns but always accompanied each other, never giving up.

***

The interview with the vice-captain finished and the reporters moved onto the youngsters. "The four newcomers, you just started and could follow Canglan to win the champions.h.i.+p. How are you feeling at the moment?"

Gu Siming replied bluntly, "I am so excited that I can't hold the microphone!"

Laughter filled the venue. Then Xiao Gu grabbed the microphone and said, "I feel that my luck is particularly good. I was discovered by the boss in the Dragon Song training club, joined the team and followed Cat G.o.d to the champions.h.i.+p! In fact, my own strength isn't particularly prominent. The key is that my teammates are excellent!"

The reporters were amused by him. This little madman wasn't the best in the team but he came from the Dragon Song training camp. His foundations were particularly solid and his craziness made the opponents feel fear. In particular, his protection during the playoffs laid the foundation to the finals.

The reporters turned to question Zhuo Hang. "Xiao Zhuo, your hunter shone in the playoffs. Your ability to combine your traps with the terrain improved by leaps and bounds. What caused such a sudden increase in strength?"

Zhuo Hang calmly replied, "The Dragon Song Club has a master who is an expert on maps. I consulted him on some questions and he also gave me suggestions. I would like to thank Senior Wu Zewen for his guidance."

Some reporters were confused but other senior reporters knew that Wu Zewen was the information genius who created the Dragon Song team and club with Liu Chuan! It was no wonder that Zhuo Hang seemed different in the playoffs. It turned out there was such a master behind him.

After being taught by the school tyrant for a period of time, Zhuo Hang broke through his bottleneck. He paid more attention to the positioning of traps and the map. Wu Zewen really contributed to this.

The old reporters explained to the new reporters and everyone realized why Zhuo Hang made such rapid progress. It turned out he had the guidance of such a master. The Dragon Song Club was really full of talents!

"Xiao Han's play was also excellent. Do you also have a behind the scenes master guiding you?" A reporter asked curiously.

Xiao Han took the microphone and asked seriously, "What is the meaning of behind the scenes master? What is the difference with an illegal person?"

The reporters, "…"

Young man, your focus is wrong! These two words are completely different!

Li Cangyu helplessly leaned over and explained to him, "They are asking if there is a master who secretly taught you?"

Xiao Han nodded thoughtfully. "Does my sparring partner Qin Mo count?"

Qin Mo, "…"

Could he stop using the words 'sparring partner'?

The reporters were speechless. This mixed-race child with different brain circuits made them feel very tired. Still, they saw Xiao Han's face and thought he was too cute. They couldn't help wanting to tease him.

"Xiao Han, you and Qin Mo are both called little princes. In private, do you have a tacit rivalry like your masters?"

Xiao Han nodded. "We often fight in the arena."

"Who is more powerful?"

"I think I am more powerful since I won the champions.h.i.+p."

Qin Mo, "…"

Xiao Han's straight talk was particularly irritating. Ling Xuefeng turned back and saw the redness on his apprentice's face. He couldn't help patting Qin Mo's shoulder and asking, "Xiao Han's Chinese has improved. Did you teach him?"

Qin Mo was very dissatisfied about this. "He comes to me every day to learn all types of words and doesn't even pay me tuition…"

Ling Xuefeng said, "I will buy you something as the tuition fee."

Qin Mo was stunned. Why was his master giving him the tuition fees on behalf of Cat G.o.d's apprentice? Didn't this mean Wind Colour was losing money?

Of course, Qin Mo was at the bottom of the food chain and couldn't object to this. Since Master was paying for Xiao Han's tuition, he had to accept it.

***

In the interview room, Xiao Han's answer made many reporters laugh. However, the mixed-raced teenager's expression said, 'What are you laughing at? I am telling the truth.' This made people laugh even more.

After interviewing Xiao Han, another reporter asked Li Xiaojiang. "Xiaojiang, you made a good counterattack while being suppressed by the two black magicians. You performed very well."

Li Xiaojiang stuttered with a red face. "Thank, thank you. Zhuo, Zhuo Hang protected me well."

Zhuo Hang gently waved his hand. "Stop being modest. You are excellent, which is why we can work together."

Li Xiaojiang's face became redder but his eyes were s.h.i.+ning.

"Xiaojiang, did you think you would win the champions.h.i.+p when you joined Canglan?"

Li Xiaojiang shook his head. "I never thought I could become a professional player, let alone win the champions.h.i.+p. I want to thank, thank Cat G.o.d for giving me this opportunity as well as the team, teammates for their help."

His serious appearance made many reporters clap to give him encouragement. Li Xiaojiang's level was the worst in Canglan but he was the hardest worker. The fact that he could keep calm in the finals showed he was already a mature professional player.

“Ah Shu played very well today. Your fast attack combination with Xiao Han caught everyone's eyes. Do you think you did well? What about compared to your brother Su Guangmo?"

Xie Shurong showed a handsome smile. "I don't know how I compare to him since we haven't fought alone in a long time. However, my face is definitely more handsome."

Su Guangmo, "…" Could he be so shameless?

"What do you think is the difference between the American ICE Club and the domestic Dragon Song Club?"

"The atmosphere of the Dragon Song Club is better and the food is naturally more delicious."

It was discovered that this person was a foodie and everyone suddenly understood why he returned to China. Perhaps he was uncomfortable eating the Western food?

The last one to receive the microphone was Old Zhang. The reporter asked about his mood and Old Zhang laughed happily. "Of course, I am super excited! It is lucky to return to the field at such an old age. The face that I could take the champions.h.i.+p with everyone made me feel that it is worth it, haha! I want to laugh and wake up from the dream!"

The straightforward answer made the reporters laugh. However, his words were really reasonable. At the end of his career, he met Cat G.o.d and won the champions.h.i.+p with Canglan. He no longer had any regrets.

They interviewed everyone and the questions returned to Captain Li Cangyu again, "Captain Ling praised you in his interview and said he was happy to see you win the champions.h.i.+p. What do you have to say to this old rival?"

Li Cangyu smiled and simple said, "It is my luck to have such an opponent. Thank you Xuefeng. In my heart, you are also an excellent player."

Ling Xuefeng's lips curved as he watched the live broadcast.

'For seven years, I know everything you've experienced and how you persisted. Now I can see you on the throne at the peak. As your opponent and lover, I am happy and proud of you.'
