Chapter 493 Excellent Era is Out
Compared to the competition for the playoffs, the other extreme, the existence of the remaining two elimination spots, is not welcomed. Even under normal circumstances, there are usually no players who are interested in this position at this time. After all, in a long season, each team has to play 380 games. With a full score of , the teams in the last two elimination spots are definitely the worst two teams in this season, and under normal circumstances, no one pays attention to them.
But this year is obviously an exception, the reason is very simple, because this year's second to last team is a former powerhouse, the only winner of three consecutive championships, and the team that built a dynasty - Excellent Era.
Facts have proved that if you live long enough, you can really see everything. It is absolutely a miracle that the Excellent Era team appears in the elimination zone. For a while, the media inside and outside the circle are reporting on this matter. Experts, anchors, and fans are discussing this topic online in various ways.
Originally this was only a theoretical possibility, but now it has become a real reality.
The last two games were almost a foregone conclusion. First of all, Xuan Qi's elimination was a foregone conclusion and could not be changed. However, for Xuan Qi, who had been at the bottom of the rankings since the beginning of this season, no one really cared about his life or death except his fans. Not to mention that there was now such a topical company as Excellent Era.
However, compared to Xuanqi, Jia Shi's performance was not so stable. It had ups and downs in a season. Some people also found that although Jia Shi had been on the edge of elimination this season, it did not come out after all, and this was only the second time it came out.
As for when the first time was, it was naturally last winter when their captain Ye Qiu announced his retirement and Sun Xiang took over as captain.
At that time, everyone had expected and hoped for a miracle to happen.
The fact is, a miracle did happen, but it was not the miracle they wanted to see...
Now the gap between Jia Shijie and Ming Qing, which is ranked 18th, has reached five points.
It just so happens that the difference between Blue Rain and Samsara is also five points, but the status and situation of the two teams are completely different. In other words, there is no conflict between Excellent Era and Blue Rain. Otherwise, if it were Tyranny fans, they would have directly criticized Excellent Era fans to the point of doubting their lives.
But even so, Jia Shi's current performance still receives a lot of criticism. After all, as the only team in the professional league that has created a dynasty, it is not surprising that a big tree attracts the wind.
However, compared to the turmoil in the outside world, Excellent Era's fans were very calm this time. Of course, this could be because they were already numb to Excellent Era's performance this season, or it could be that Tao Xuan and his team's public relations had a certain effect. As for what exactly happened, it is no longer possible to verify...
However, what made Xiao Nai happy was that some things were different from the original work.
In the original novel, Jia Shi used Ye Xiu as a scapegoat in order to divert the conflict, saying that they had contacted the retired Ye Qiu and wanted to invite him back as a consultant, but unfortunately Ye Qiu refused in the end. Although this statement is objectively true, based on what he did at the time, it is no different from directly diverting hatred.
But there is naturally no such saying now.
But although that method is a bit shameless, it is indeed the most effective and practical way.
When Chen Guo learned from Xiao Nai that there was such a method, she immediately said that he was a profiteer, but Ye Xiu said that Xiao Nai's way of handling it was normal. If their relationship had not eased, Tao Xuan would probably really say so. After all, these were all facts. "But if you say that, it would be like it was your fault that Excellent Era was in such a state." Qiao Jingjing also said indignantly.
"Well... it's not wrong to say that it's Old Ye's fault. After all, it was this guy who led Xiao Nai and the others to destroy the other team's main force in the online game. Otherwise, no matter how bad Excellent Era was, it wouldn't have been eliminated now." Wei Chen said.
"That's all Sun Xiang and Liu Hao's fault. It's clearly the season now, but they still brought people to cause trouble for us. Aren't they asking for it?" Chen Guo said.
"Well, what you said makes sense, so Old Ye can barely account for 40% of the total." Xiao Nai said.
"No need for 40%." Ye Xiu said with some sadness. He did not give Chen Guo a chance to refute and continued: "After all, no one knew at the beginning that just a battle in an online game could lead to such a thing. No one wants such a thing, but things like team performance cannot be forced after all. At least they are still young now. As long as they don't give up, they still have a chance in the future. It just depends on their choices and plans for their future. I'm going to go out and smoke a cigarette, I'm leaving first."
This time, Xiao Nai did not follow him out. After all, no matter how strong Ye Xiu was inside, he needed to slow down at this time.
Whether it was the future match against Excellent Era with Xiao Shiqin joining, or their successful competition allowing him to completely defeat Excellent Era, or Excellent Era's current situation, everything needed to be slowed down.
It’s a pity that Ye Xiu can take a break, but the game cannot. With the arrival of May 13th, the eighth season of the professional league also came to an end.
Eight teams, namely Blue Rain, Samsara, Tiny Herb, Tyranny, Misty Rain, Void, 301 Degrees and Thunder, have secured the final playoff spots, while Excellent Era and Xuanqi have been eliminated. Among them, Excellent Era, once the most glorious team, has now come to this point, which makes players sigh.
There was a lot of discussion about Excellent Era at the time. Some people lamented the decline of an entire dynasty, while others had great confidence in Excellent Era and believed that Excellent Era would never fall.
Naturally, Excellent Era held a press conference immediately, admitting that their performance this season could only be described as a disaster, but that it was not the end of the world yet. Then they began to release some news that could appease the fans.
Among them, the ace player Sun Xiang will not leave the team because of this. This is definitely the most important thing.
Later, Sun Xiang admitted this and said that he would overcome this difficulty together with Excellent Era.
"In the next season's challenge, I will lead Excellent Era back to the professional league's stage and let Excellent Era return to the position it deserves," Sun Xiang said confidently.
As for such reports in the newspaper, Chen Guo and Qiao Jingjing now have the same attitude, that is, they will not even read it. The reason they read the newspaper is simply because Sun Xiang is not the only player interviewed. Another super popular character who was interviewed is the reason why the two women read this report.
That person is naturally another all-star player in Jia World - Su Mucheng! (End of this chapter)
