We cant keep it up!

Right when Yu Wenzhou realized what Happys true strategy was, Huang Shaotian also started to feel pressured.

3v3. Team Blue Rains side had a healer. If it was a direct confrontation, their side should have the advantage. The problem was that this 3v3 wasnt the only fight taking place. From an overall perspective, their slight advantage was not nearly enough. They needed speed, explosiveness, DPS, and time to eliminate their opponents.

Happys fifth player still hadnt appeared, and it wasnt just out of patience. Huang Shaotian had deduced a certain possibility: Qiao Yifans Phantom Demon had gone to switch with Happys healer.

Blue Rain held the advantage during this period of time. However, lowering Happys health bars wasnt enough. They needed to kill a player from Happy before their Cleric arrived.

Huang Shaotian and Zheng Xuan were clearly far from achieving this goal. From time to time, the two would look towards the other battle, hoping Yu Wenzhou and Lu Hanwen would hurry and come. However, help never arrived.

The two didnt try to urge their teammates to hurry up. None of them, including their healer Xu Jingxi, typed a single word.

There was no need to say anything. When Huang Shaotian had called out to Zheng Xuan and Xu Jingxi to counterattack, the other side should have gotten the message and made the appropriate decision. If they hadnt come yet, it could only mean that their situation didnt permit them to.

Huang Shaotians side could not see the other battle. How could they know that their old captain Wei Chen was struggling with all his might to keep Yu Wenzhou and Lu Hanwen from leaving?

As a famed opportunist, Huang Shaotian had an excellent read of the match.

Even though he didnt know the reason, without either Yu Wenzhou or Lu Hanwen, he understood that just his and Zheng Xuans attacks werent enough. They had dealt quite a bit of damage to Lord Grim and Boundless Sea, but they had taken even more damage. Happys side had three attackers, after all.

Boom boom boom!

Artillery fire came from both Su Muchengs Dancing Rain and Zheng Xuans Bullet Rain. Ye Xiu and Fang Rui were dodging, but Huang Shaotian and Zheng Xuan? They had their characters rush through the gunfire to attack.

This was because of the difference in team compositions. Team Blue Rain had a healer, and that enabled them to be recklessly aggressive.

Their health was guaranteed to be above a safe level at the cost of the mana from Xu Jingxis Soul Speaker. White light constantly flashed, protecting Troubling Rains and Bullet Rains health.

Huang Shaotian felt that the situation wasnt good, so he constantly checked on Soul Speakers situation.

The constant flashes of white light were somewhat glaring to look at. During intense team fights, the healers would often look like this. However, it was only a 3v3, yet Soul Speaker was already this busy.

It was because of their current tactics.

But strangely, Happy made no attempts to stop them.

How could Ye Xiu and others in Happy not understand their intentions? Of course they would, but they seemed to be fine with it. Su Muchengs Dancing Rain stood farther away, so Huang Shaotian and Zheng Xuan didnt target her. Xu Jingxi had his Soul Speaker stand in a position, where Su Mucheng couldnt reach him, so that his spells would not be interrupted. With him dodging around, Su Mucheng simply gave up and stopped targeting him.

Happy was going along with Blue Rains plans. They were practically setting up the conditions for Blue Riains plans to work, as if they were luring Blue Rain to do it.

Yu Wenzhou and Lu Hanwen still hadnt arrived. Was this all part of Happys plans?

Huang Shaotian felt like something wasnt right. Troubling Rain began attacking more carefully, no longer as reliant on their healer.

Zheng Xuan felt a change from Huang Shaotian. Without asking about it, he immediately matched his Bullet Rain with Huang Shaotians rhythm. It wasnt that this guy couldnt figure out the problem, rather, he was just too lazy to think. As a result, he rarely thought deeply during a match. He always played lazily, for example, like how he was just going along with what his teammate did.

Boom!

Huang Shaotian was hesitating, when he suddenly heard a muffled sound.

To their side, on top of a long wall of medium height, a head suddenly poked out from a crack. The head was covered with ash and blood and in a utterly pathetic state.

Who?

For a moment, Huang Shaotian wasnt sure who the character was, and had to check the name by sliding his cursor over him.

Windward Formation.

It was Wei Chens Windward Formation?

Has it finally been settled?

Just when Huang Shaotian thought this, that bloody head suddenly retracted.

It looks like its about over.

Huang Shaotian continued to think. If Windward Formation was eliminated, the two on that side could come over and help them. Then, they could strengthen their offense. Even if Happys healer arrived, it would still be a 5v4. Huang Shaotian and Zheng Xuan had already lowered Happys health significantly, thus the match would certainly end in Blue Rains victory.

Continue to attack!

Huang Shaotian was about to shift gears back, when an order came from their captain Yu Wenzhou: slow.

It was just one word. It wasnt clear who Yu Wenzhou was referring to, but Huang Shaotian immediately slowed down.

Zheng Xuan and Xu Jingxi also saw the order, and made the same decision. Their offense suddenly slowed.

Woah, have they figured it out already? There was no way Ye Xiu wouldnt notice such a change.

Old Wei, you dead yet? Ye Xiu said.

There was no reply. Wei Chen saw it, but he could only curse inwardly. How could he have any time to chat?

Keep them nervous! Ye Xiu also sent out an order. His Lord Grim and Fang Ruis Boundless Sea suddenly went aggressive.

What?

Huang Shaotian and Zheng Xuan were startled.

Ye Xiu and Fang Rui had tried their hardest to stay on the defensive. Happy had no healer, so they needed to carefully preserve their health. They could not afford to be as reckless as Huang Shaotian and Zheng Xuan. Ye Xius Lord Grim had some healing capabilities, but in such an intense battle, his healing was like trying to put out a burning cart with a cup of water.

Now, the two suddenly bared their fangs. That was a fierceness only Troubling Rain and Bullet Rain previously had!

Happys healer has arrived?

That was the first thought from Blue Rains team members. Sure enough, An Wenyis Little Cold Hands appeared from behind a stone pillar. His cross, Holy Contract, glowed with white light, a spell ready to cast.

Shua!

Holy light surrounded Lord Grim. In that instant, the holy light seemed to converge and then blossom into a wave of resplendence.

Critical heal!

It was similar to a critical hit from an attack. A critical heal would heal 50% more, just like a how a critical hit dealt 50% more damage.

Lord Grims health instantly shot up a chunk. Little Cold Hands had cast the Clerics strongest heal, Holy Words. Lord Grims sudden increase in health made Huang Shaotians heart hurt.

Fuck, you bastard. Youre not afraid of overhealing? Huang Shaotian started his trash talking again.

Im not afraid at all! Ye Xiu replied. Lord Grims Myriad Manifestations Umbrella shined with white light as well. He had healed himself. The amount healed was tiny, but nevertheless, he would always heal himself from time to time.

Because we have more than enough mana! Ye Xiu said. There was no need to hide it at this point. He believed that Blue Rain had certainly figured out their intentions by now, but what could they do? They had already accomplished their goal. Xu Jingxis Soul Speaker had consumed a substantial amount of mana. Even if they knew, they had no way of changing it. And soon, he would still need to consume more mana, because it was no Happys turn to attack.

Rush them!

Lord Grim, Boundless Sea, and Dancing Rain attacked together. An Wenyis Little Cold Hands also went into the open, becoming their pillar. Su Muchengs Dancing Rain no longer let Blue Rain do as they pleased. Dancing Rain leaped into the air, and found her target, Xu Jingxis Soul Speaker.

She knew that Soul Speaker was here, and had thought about how to quickly reach him. However, she hadnt attacked. Happys intentions were truly too obvious.

And this was only for Blue Rain.

The viewers had figured it out far earlier than Blue Rain.

Because when Blue Rain had guessed that Happys Cleric was on his way there and had seized that opportunity to attack, they had seen that An Wenyis Little Cold Hands had gone into position even earlier. But because of Ye Xius orders, he had carefully stayed hidden and waited.

The unskilled players might not understand why, but if Pan Lin and Li Yibo couldnt understand why given these circumstances, then they would simply be too clueless.

Happys plans were obvious, and they watched as Blue Rain fell for it. When Pan Lin and Li Yibo discussed it, they believed that Yu Wenzhou, Lu Hanwen, and Wei Chens battle would be key.

As it turned out, Wei Chen was miraculously able to hold on. He stalled two players simultaneously, even if it was such an embarrassing manner

Wei Chen is this matchs MVP! Li Yibo said, Ive never seen anyone that could make Yu Wenzhou look so helpless.

But it looks like hes reached his limit! Pan Lin said. He gave his respects to the old general. Windward Formation had fallen. Wei Chen had done his all, exhausting the entirety of his characters life.

Happys healer is almost there! Perhaps this will be a new turning point! Pan Lin said.

There seems to be a trap! Li Yibo saw Yu Wenzhous and Lu Hanwens movements, and suddenly sniffed something out.
