The final round.

Only seven teams came to this round. One of the teams had a bypass, but in this final round, that wouldn’t be allowed.

The rule for all final games was the points-based system. In other words, the remaining teams would all go head-to-head.

One point for a win.

They would select the top three from seven teams; then the three teams would fight for the championship.

Team Gift Pack of Snacks drew Team Phoenix in the first game of the finals. Team Phoenix had performed well in this season, especially the team leader Phoenix Yufei.

When the game began, Ming Shu noticed Phoenix Yufei.

He looked similar to his character in the game. He had long hair, with half of it tied up by a thread and the other half resting on his shoulder. He looked like an artist at first glance.

“Ji He.” Phoenix Yufei took the initiative to greet her. “You bullied our substitute team member before and I remember that. I won’t show mercy this time.”

After taking several bites of a biscuit, Ming Shu remembered that he was talking about the time she reported them to prison.

Actress Shu immediately showed an innocent smile. “That’s okay. When you lose, I’ll let you experience the same treatment.”

Phoenix Yufei was stunned. “I’m looking forward to that, then.”

Ming Shu encouraged him, “Good.”

Phoenix Yufei: “…”

He watched all their games. They won the previous games, which seemed shameless, but come to think of it, their skills were all very powerful.

He needed to be careful with them.

“Team Phoenix is good at strategy, so you should be very careful of Phoenix Yufei,” Wang Heyang reminded Ming Shu.

Ming Shu pushed Tonight’s Moon forward a little. “Who could be better at scheming than him?”

Wang Heyang: “…”

Tonight’s Moon: “…” Why do I feel that she is calling me names?

When did I scheme anything? That’s strategy! Do you understand strategy?!

“Even if he can’t, we still have a business elite.” Ming Shu looked over at Yellow Crane Returning West.

Wang Heyang: “…”

Forget it, I might as well go.

“Master, come on!” Xiang Wan admired Ming Shu so blindly.

“It’s time to get in now,” Wang Heyang reminded them.

Ming Shu led the way into the competition field.

Cheers came from the audience.

“Wind God, Wind God!”

“Qingqiu, Qingqiu, I love you.”

“Ahhhhh, Tonight’s Moon…”

“Hahaha, here comes our Team Gift Pack of Snacks, and the team name is very interesting. Of course, we have so many good-looking team members in the team…” the host introduced them while they stepped onto the stage.

Phoenix Yufei also entered the venue with his team members.

When it came to appearances, Team Phoenix was naturally inferior to Ming Shu’s team, but in style, they were much stronger.

Ming Shu’s team still didn’t have uniforms, and they sat lazily in their seats.

“So, here comes the first game of the finals, and it’ll be started by teams Gift Pack of Snacks and Phoenix. All players, please take your seats…”

The host walked down the stage, and the screen switched to the game and the game commentator’s side.

Under the constant persuasion of Qingqiu Zhong, Ming Shu changed into their uniforms in the game.

“That’s right, this shows that we are a team!”

“We’re just a bunch of bored people playing games together,” Ming Shu gave a very precise definition.

None of them wanted to be a professional player.

Not all the best players wanted to stand on the peak.

Qingqiu Zhong cleared his throat. “Even so, we still have to pay attention to the pomp.”

Ming Shu: “…”

That was how Team Gift Pack of Snacks came out in the game, and it was totally different from their laidback looks in reality.

Phoenix Yufei looked them up and down, and to tell the truth, it was pretty cool for them to stand together in such uniforms.

But it was not about the money if he also wanted such uniforms.

The question was who he should turn to.

They hadn’t yet found out who could make such equipment.

…

The game officially began. They couldn’t hear anything outside, and were standing on an island.

Such maps were rare. Most maps were dense forests and barren mountains, and even desert maps were more common than island maps.

So the final round was upgraded not only by the system, but also by the map.

The rarer the map was, the more unfamiliar it was to the players.

Qingqiu Zhong said, “Our opponent is a professional team now, shouldn’t we get serious?”

Overlapped Moon and Sun: “I’ve seen their former performances, they are really difficult to deal with.”

Yellow Crane Returning West looked straight at Tonight’s Moon.

Tonight’s Moon said, “Island maps are not very common. I haven’t seen this map before. But if the people on the other side are familiar with the map, we’ve lost out.”

Ming Shu put the sword on her own shoulder. “We’ll fight head-on then.”

A handsome pose and a calm smile.

The audience outside screamed, but of course, the players in the game now couldn’t hear them.

Yellow Crane Returning West: “Who will guard the flag?”

This was key.

The means they used to hide the flag in the first and second rounds must not be used again, as the other side already knew of it.

So in the finals, they must have someone guard the map.

…

Phoenix Yufei looked at the map and frowned slightly. “Why haven’t they opened the map?”

“Team leader, they fight a little weird and didn’t use normal methods to win in the previous games. They won’t play any tricks this time, will they?”

You would never know what they would do.

Phoenix Yufei was also unsure.

“Let’s see what will happen first.”

Soon, ten minutes had passed, yet still, nothing happened on the other side.

The audience was speechless.

At this time, Ming Shu and her team were guarding the red flag, forming a circle and painting on the ground.

“They’re actually playing the gobang. If Team Phoenix won’t come to find them, will they play it all throughout?”

“What do they want to do?”

“Are we here to see them play gobang?”

The commentator was also a little helpless. “So based on our assumptions, Team Gift Pack of Snacks has chosen to wait for windfalls, but Team Phoenix has always been cautious and can’t be expected to come very soon. Let’s take a look at Team Phoenix, so… This is indeed the case. They’re still in a wait-and-see mode…”

The commentator then turned to Ming Shu’s team.

And finally, somehow he began to comment on the gobang game.

The audience: “…”

F**k, are you serious?

Ming Shu and the others in the team played for a while, but upon realizing that the other party didn’t take any action, they went to open the map.

The audience thought the game was finally going to begin, but after they opened the map, they returned to their own team again—and continued the gobang game.

The audience: “…” Don’t stop us, we’re going to kill them in the game. 

None of the preliminary games was as boring as this.

“Here it comes, here it comes, Team Phoenix’s Thousand Miles In The Air is on the move…” The commentator’s excited voice pulled back the attention of the sleepy audience from the gobang.

Finally—

It’s finally starting. 

Thousand Miles In The Air found Ming Shu and her team very easily. But seeing them sit together, Thousand Miles In The Air was apparently dumbfounded.

“Alas, what took you so long? I specially selected the flag spot that’s easiest to find.”

Thousand Miles In The Air: “…” There seemed to be something wrong with this situation.

Ming Shu smiled and continued, “Well, I say, if we don’t open the map, aren’t you going to come? Is your team leader being too cautious? He deserves to lose the championship.”

Thousand Miles In The Air: “…”
