The official accounts of the teams [ Tiger Roars in the Mountain Forest ], [ Phoenix Crown and Rosy Robes ], and [ Twilight of the Gods ] successively released videos promoting their high-end combat capabilities, and within just half an hour, the number of likes exceeded one million.
The most exaggerated [ Twilight of the Gods ] team even surpassed two million likes, surpassing Sovereign Dominion's original video!
"I've seen all the teams in the esports scene showing off their high-level skills, so I'm going to do the same. Everyone watch closely, don't blink!"
" Twilight of the Gods Elite Team Members: [ Chiwen ][ Baxia ][ Coiled Dragon ][ Charter ][ Pulao ]"
Twilight of the Gods Leader: [ Golden Suanni ]
" Twilight of the Gods Vice Captain: [ Qiuniu ][ Chaofeng ][ Yazi ]"
"Captain of Twilight of the Gods, [ Silver Dragon ], the strongest Champion Emperor player, ranked first in all heroes nationwide, and has been the number one player in the Android WeChat Zone for 28 consecutive seasons!"
The release of the Twilight of the Gods Team's promotional video caused an uproar across the internet. It's worth noting that Twilight of the Gods, founded by Silver Dragon, is a force to be reckoned with in terms of influence and appeal.
Its nine core members are all renowned, top-tier players without exception, and their combined fan base exceeds one hundred million!
" Twilight of the Gods, the eternal god! If the Imperial Crown Team falls from their pedestal, I don't need to guess, it's definitely Twilight of the Gods's doing!"
"Everyone says the Imperial Crown Nine have a strong appeal and influence, but can they be stronger than the Gods ' Nine?"
"Brother, I disagree with what you said. The reason why the Nine Gods are so strong is because they have private accounts on all platforms across the internet, and eight of them have even shown their faces intentionally or unintentionally."
"On the other hand, the Imperial Crown Nine have not opened any private accounts, and they have never even shown their faces."
"Speaking of which, putting aside the Silver Dragon player, who is the most powerful player in Twilight of the Gods?"
"I don't know who's the most powerful, but in terms of mystery, [ Qiuniu ] is number one. After all, he's the only vice-captain of the Gods who has never shown his face. I really want to see what he looks like in real life!"
Late at night, at the Chongqing Wolves training base.
"Why can't we see through the strength of [Dragon][Phoenix][Tiger]?" In the training room, Fly stared intently at the replay screen, which displayed the Sovereign Dominion Team's first team match!
At the training table, Xiaopang raised his phone and shouted, " Brother Niu, Huahai replied!"
Fly quickly turned his head and asked, "What did he say?"
He said he couldn't discern the true skill level of the three vice-captains of Sovereign Dominion either!
"What?!"
Fly's pupils tremble.
It should be noted that Huahai's visual estimation ability is extremely strong. Among the many King-Titled Player, he dares to claim second place, and no one dares to claim first place. Now, even he can't tell the level of Sovereign Dominion's three vice-captains.
This can only prove one thing.
Their actual skill level is either above or very close to that of King-Titled Player -King-Titled Player!
"Take the average, and calculate based on King-Titled Player." Fly's expression was extremely grim. "Then, in the Clash of Kings, there will be three King-Titled Player plus one player with the title of Overlord, assisting the Exalted Emperor!"
The triennial Clash of Kings is less than ten days away!
No one expected that Exalted Emperor's self-created Sovereign Dominion Team would be able to invite three players comparable to the King-Titled Player to join.
"This is dangerous."
Fly bites her nails, becoming anxious.
As the current King of the Clash Lane, if he wants to retain his Supreme King Title, he must defeat the Exalted Emperor!
Unlike the Overlord Feast, the Clash of Kings doesn't have a 1v1 duel segment; it's a 5v5 team competition from the start.
Whether or not you can win depends on your skill level, but even more so on the performance of your four teammates.
"If I use the same team from the previous Clash of Kings, I'll be doomed to defeat against the Overlord King Title's team led by Exalted Emperor Chong!"
Fly's heart sank to the bottom. If they were defeated, losing the title of King of the Clash Lane would be a small matter, but losing the title of Supreme King Title would be a big one!
After all, the Supreme King Title is his only path to the Champion Emperor title!
Xiaopang's voice rang out. " Brother Niu, you're now the leader of the Tiger Roars in the Mountain Forest Team, a management position with real power. You can use the strength of Tiger Roars in the Mountain Forest to build the core of the Clash of Kings."
Fly's face turned pale, then flushed. "Unless Captain Mountain Lord personally intervenes to help me, my chances of retaining the Supreme King Title are slim!"
The two vice-captains of Tiger Roars in the Mountain Forest, [ Anya ] and [ Minglang ], have gaming skills comparable to those of top-tier King-Titled Player. Coupled with their good brother, the Farm Lane King [ Yaodao ], they are more than capable of going toe-to-toe with the three vice-captains of Sovereign Dominion!
but!
I'm not sure I can suppress Exalted Emperor!
Not long ago, I was matched with someone from Chonghuang in the same team, and together we crushed Yu Jingzi, the vice-captain of Dimian. I still can't forget the terrifying strength that Chonghuang's Ma Chao showed!
"The problem still lies with me." Fly looked at Xiaopang, his fingertips trembling slightly. "In a one-on-one fight, I'm not confident I can defeat Exalted Emperor!"
His Immortal Technique Maneuver were effortless; during the team competition at the Overlord Feast, he even created his own Guan Yu Immortal Technique Maneuver on the spot, stunning the entire audience.
Faced with such a monstrous gaming genius, unless one can rediscover their peak form, there is no way to defeat the Exalted Emperor!
" Brother Niu..." Xiaopang asked in astonishment, "Are you afraid of Exalted Emperor?"
Fly slowly lowered his head.
Like an incompetent husband, he finally trembled and murmured an "Mmm."
" Xiaopang, go back to your dorm. I want to be alone."
Xiaopang stood up, hesitated for a moment, and said, " Brother Niu, you really need to adjust your mindset. Call me if anything happens."
The door was gently closed.
The training room was quiet.
"Only by regaining my peak can I defeat the Exalted Emperor." Fly's lips curled into a bitter smile. "But my peak was at 17. How can I, at 25, possibly return to being 17?"
Fly took out his phone, opened the photo album, and jumped to 2017, his most triumphant year. He led the Wolves's predecessor, QG, to sweep the KPL League, winning four championships in one year and achieving an immortal legend!
As photos of his victories surfaced, looking at the young and proud Fly, a sense of familiarity mixed with unfamiliarity washed over me.
"At 25, I sat alone in the training room, suddenly remembering when I was 17, winning four KPL League championship trophies in a row, and being revered as the General Feiniu ' by millions of top lane players..."
But none of that matters to me now.
Fly felt a pang of bitterness. Only when one can no longer recreate past glories will one constantly look back at those achievements.
I'm about to close the photo album.
Suddenly, a selfie video from August 5th came into view.
"August 5th, wasn't that when I was commentating on the Imperial Crown War?" Fly asked, puzzled. "Did I have a selfie video from that day?"
"Or did someone use my phone to film the video?"
Fly was completely baffled and tapped the play button.
In the restroom of the Chengdu Esports Center, a young man with a wolf-tail and small eyes sat on the toilet, raised his phone, and coughed twice.
"By the time you see this selfie video, I should be almost gone. For you, Fly, congratulations, the dissociative identity disorder that has plagued you for ten years is about to be completely cured!"
