This time, ANE can be considered to have shot themselves in the foot.
The key thing is that they didn’t think PG would ban Burial Sword and Satan, nor did they think Jing Yu’s Mandala Petals would outperform their expectations to this extent.
Besides them, another person who didn’t expect all this, is Halfling.
He knows Jing Yu’s Mandala Petals isn’t weak. But while he said he believes she will bring about a miracle, he is still somewhat worried at heart, fearing he might be expecting too much out of Jing Yu.
But with all that said – Jing Yu has given rise to yet another miracle!
This is no longer a question about meeting his expectations! He’s simply overturning each and every single one of them!
【This demon, Mandala Petals, is way too suitable for a strategist like Goldfish!】Halfling can’t help exclaiming, 【Similar to Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, she is a demon that demands much of her player’s awareness and ability to seize the timing!】
【Nevertheless, if the player’s operation fails to keep up, it’ll be in vain regardless of how much they strategize.】Candy adds, 【The overwhelming strength of Player Goldfish lies not just in his perfect grasp over the timing, it lies even more so in his understanding of assassin-class demons and practice with them! In this round, ANE’s issues are quite clear. They do not have a sufficient understanding of Mandala Petals. Therefore, we see a lot of their efforts go to waste when they’re countering Mandala Petals’ Poison-Stacking playstyle. Even when aced, they were still unable to make a breakthrough. 】
PG aces ANE a total of two times. For the first ace, they snatched the dragon thereafter and toppled quite a number of ANE’s towers in one fell swoop, leaving only one tower in the Top and Bottom Lane each.
The second Team Battle broke out right in the vicinity of the Bottom Jungle’s Demonic Disk. In this battle, Ye Hong’s Black Serpent secured a pentakill, and the remaining head went to Luo Yiming’s Dark Cupid.
The Demonic Disk was alas snatched by ANE’s Centaur. But even then, it was for naught. PG had their lane creeps despite lacking a Demonic Disk. Following the path of the lane creeps, they topple ANE’s last two towers all in one go.
At this point in the game, they are at the 28-minute mark with a headcount of 18 : 6. PG clinched three times the number of heads ANE did!
There is no longer any question about the result. Even if ANE manages to revive right before their Strongholds are smashed to smithereens, they’ll still be incapable of doing a thing.
Halfling announces the result before the match’s over: 【Congratulations to PG on beating ANE with a score of 2 – 0 and becoming the winner of the Qualifiers’ Category A! But at the same time, let’s congratulate ANE for qualifying for the Elimination Round as well!】
Candy: 【The next time these two teams face-off, it’ll be in the offline round! The offline round will also display the qualifying teams’ performance in these three Qualifier matches. Hahaha! I’m really looking forward to how PG will look like in that introduction ah!】
Subsequently, whatever the two commentators say, Fang Luofan is no longer paying attention. He gazes at the screen where Mandala Petals is chosen to be the MVP. His blood surges – In this season, they truly stand a chance to win the Championship!
With that said, in the Training Room that is just a few steps’ distance away, PG aren’t the least bit concerned about the next match. Lacking all and any inhibition, the members of PG begin to scroll Weibo, the forum, and even the broadcast.
Ye Hong: “Oh-Huo! MOMO defeated Kcc at 2 – 0!”
Luo Yiming: “What-what?! Lemme see!”
Upon hearing ‘MOMO’, Jing Yu also cranes his head curiously. He leans into Ye Hong’s computer screen, totally forgetting about Qin Fei who sits beside him.
Qin Fei leans back and allows Jing Yu to park right in front of him. His eyes fill with helplessness, but there’s also the slightest urge to chuckle.
On Ye Hong’s screen, MOMO and Kcc’s match-off is currently on play. MOMO’s Jungler Zhis has always played downright dirty with his Dragon-Snatching ways. Kcc’s prowess don’t stand much of a chance against MOMO to begin with. They lose out to Zhis in terms of Snatching the Dragon too. Therefore, MOMO generally wiped the floor with them in these two rounds.
Luo Yiming: “HAHAHAHAHA! Zhis truly is born to snatch the dragon!”
Ye Hong: “In order to snatch the dragon, he’ll be as underhanded as can be!”
Han Leng: “From what I heard, the members of this team are quite young. They’ve got a very promising road ahead!”
Jing Yu can’t help but smile sweetly. He’s just about to criticize the match when he leans forward too much and his centre of gravity tips over. He very nearly flops right on top of Qin Fei.
Thankfully, he uses his hand speed trained from 20 years of single life to timely plant his palm right between Qin Fei’s thighs…… or on the chair there, at least.
Qin Fei: Fuck!
Jing Yu: Fuck!
Qin Fei’s heart flip flops, but outwardly, he only freezes briefly before calming down quickly and teasing: “What’s the meaning of this? The Art of Descendant-Killing Palm?”
Jing Yu pulls back as though burnt, retracting his hand: “I’m sorry……”
All desire to sass suddenly drains out of Jing Yu, who feels like he’s stepped out of the line. His previous countenance shrinks back, and he looks Qin Fei in the eye obediently: “Fei Ge, I didn’t do it intentionally.”
Qin Fei naturally knows he didn’t mean it. He’s only teasing him on a whim. But upon seeing Jing Yu’s present “Don’t hit me, I’m very docile” appearance, he truly can’t help wanting to smile.
Thus he does crack a smile: “Heh. You sheepskin-donning wolf.” Saying this, he raises a hand and muses Jing Yu’s hair up. Without waiting for his reaction, he rises and leaves the Training Room.
Jing Yu dazedly looks at his leaving back, feeling numb over the head where his hair was ruffled.
Ye Hong turns his gaze from computer to Qin Fei who has already departed and he can’t keep from grumbling: “Always flirting and running! You deserve to be single!”
Jing Yu: “? ? ?”
Noticing Jing Yu’s bewildered gaze directed at him, Ye Hong realizes his slip and hastily corrects: “Oh. I’m talking about Fei Ge ne. If he flirts with his girlfriend like how he touched you and ran, he can just wait and stay single forever!”
“Ah, so it’s about that……” Jing Yu replies and turns back to his own screen, slightly downtrodden.
He doesn’t know why he feels so disappointed……
By the time their match with ANE ended, it’s already late enough.
Seeing everyone is tired out, Fang Luofan doesn’t force them to practice.
Jing Yu takes a shower and dons his PJ’s before padding over to Qin Fei’s door. He raps on it, saying: “Fei Ge, I’m done washing up. You can go bathe now!”
There’s no response from the depths of the room. Only a few seconds later then is the door pulled open.
Qin Fei stands at the door half-naked, yawning sluggishly: “Got it.”
Jing Yu stares dazedly at his chest, not coming back for a good half of the day. At least, not until Qin Fei raises his eyebrows and speaks up again: “Anything else?”
“Erm. Nope.” Jing Yu snaps back to himself. Feeling the slightest abashed over spacing out, he hurriedly turns to head back to his own room.
With that said, though he wants to slip away, Qin Fei certainly doesn’t have the slightest intention of letting him go. Qin Fei chuckles lightly: “How many days has it been since you got here? Why’s there still nothing on your door?”
“Emm?” Jing Yu turns his head to glance at the “Those who wake me Die” on Qin Fei’s door, then he glances back at the bare and empty door of his own room……
“Must we have something there?” He asks unsurely.
“It’s not compulsory ……” Qin Fei says cautiously, “It’s just – Won’t you feel happier if there’s something on the door?”
–It’ll give a sense of belonging.
Unfortunately, Jing Yu totally doesn’t get Qin Fei’s point: “Why will it make you happier?”
Qin Fei’s mouth twitches. He really can’t do anything about this one: “Whatever. It’s fine if you don’t want to hang up anything. I’ll go ahead and bathe now.”
“En.” Jing Yu replies. Seeing as if Qin Fei is just about to turn on his heels, he doesn’t know why, but there’s a sudden gripping feeling of not wanting him to go. Thus, he inquires tentatively, “Is it okay if I don’t paste words, but pictures instead? For instance, Frozen Heart or the like.”
Qin Fei turns back to look at him, replying unhurriedly: “Whatever you like.”
“Then, I……” Jing Yu is just about to say he’ll go print out something from the Internet when he’s abruptly interrupted by Qin Fei.
“Heh. You truly love Frozen Heart ah……” Qin Fei sighs. He also doesn’t know why, but he tosses in another question, “I seem to remember you also like me a lot? But how much is it compared to Frozen Heart?”
Pausing here, as if afraid Jing Yu won’t be able to get his point, Qin Fei rephrases and asks again: “Between me and Frozen Heart, who do you like more?”
No sooner had these words fallen, he can’t help rebuking himself – Is this something that can really be compared?! What the hell were you thinking?!
However, before he has even brainstormed a way to retract his words, Jing Yu unhesitatingly dishes out his answer: “Of course it’s you.”
Qin Fei: “? !”
Jing Yu looks slightly abashed following his own reply, so he takes a step back, instinctively backing into the wall.
In this position, it’s seriously way too easy for Qin Fei to kabe-don!
But at the very last second of the eleventh hour, Qin Fei succeeds in putting a leash over that rash desire of his to kabe-don Jing Yu. His Adam’s apple bobs up and down once, then he smiles teasingly: “My lifeline’s Lilith…… You know what to do, right?”
Jing Yu blinks twice then does he get it: “Oh~ Then, I’ll put a poster of Lilith on my door ba!” It’s then that an idea hits him, and he starts slowly, “However…… Can you please give me another autograph? This time, on Lilith’s poster.”
–In this whole wide world, there is more than one Lilith, but there is only one Lilith belonging to Qin Fei.
Qin Fei breaks into an uncontrollable smile: “Alright. Just wait for me to finish bathing.”
Jing Yu: “En.”
Therefore, on the morning of the second day, every member of PG bears witness to it – Jing Yu’s door is now adorned with a new addition. On that piece of paper, there is Lilith. And on its bottom right corner, there is Qin Fei’s autograph. There is even a heart right at the side of his autograph.
A! Heart!
Throughout lunch, Ye Hong looks at Qin Fei distinctly as though he’s looking at a pervert.
At last, he manages to find a moment in private with Qin Fei right before afternoon practice: “Do you still have any shame?”
Qin Fei feigns confusion: “Whassit?”
Ye Hong: “Goldfish is still only a child!”
Qin Fei: “……I’m older than him by only 6 fucking months!”
Ye Hong: “You even know his birthday?”
Qin Fei: “It’s written on the contract.”
Ye Hong: “That’s not a contract with you.”
Qin Fei: “How sharp. That’s right. I secretly stole a peek at it. So what?”
Ye Hong: “Do you still have any shame?”
Qin Fei: “……It’s impossible to get through to you, bastard.”
Ye Hong: “So, is Jing Yu also that?”
Qin Fei: “Gay, you mean? I’m not sure.”
Ye Hong: “……If you’re not sure, then what the hell are you flirting with him for?!”
Qin Fei: “Just flirt first. If he’s gay, he’ll eventually show some reaction during the flirting. If he isn’t, everyone’s bros. It’s perfect.”
“You’re helluva awesome.” Ye Hong expresses he’s got zero fucks left to give. No. What he truly wants to say is, “Just make sure you don’t broil yourself to death in the future ’cause you set yourself ablaze with carnal desires and have nowhere to direct them!”
–And then, he’s sent flying by a single boot from Qin Fei!
The Elimination Round is scheduled to begin in the following week. According to the news from the game authorities, there will be some adaptations made to the demons beforehand – this can be classified into demons who will undergo adjustments, and also, the two demons that will be released.
At the moment, the whole world seems to be playing the guessing game with which demons the authorities will adjust, as well as which class and position those two new demons will be for.
The forum is also discussing this matter:
58L: I think Moonshadow Spider will be slashed!
59L: Nope, that can’t be right? Though Goldfish’s Moonshadow Spider is strong to the point of being a bug, it’s not like everyone is Goldfish ah!
60L: It’s quite uncertain whether Moonshadow Spider will be slashed. But Camael and Death God will definitely be slashed!
61L: There are indeed few people who can play Moonshadow Spider to the point of being a bug. However, since there’s someone who could do it, doesn’t that mean there exists a bug in Moonshadow Spider’s abilities? In that case, it’s quite likely she’ll be slashed ba? In the past, she was not slashed only because there wasn’t anyone who could use her to her full potential!
62L: If we follow Upstairs’ line of logic, Frozen Heart and Mandala Petals should also be slashed then? After all, when these two demons land in Goldfish’s hands, they’re no different from bugs.
63L: Hahaha! Isn’t the title of this tower “A guessing game without prize, which demon will be slashed”? Why’s everyone talking about whether Goldfish’s demons will be slashed? If you’re all so terrified of Goldfish, why not just slash Goldfish himself?
64L: Upstairs is right! Don’t you feel embarrassed to think of slashing a squishy like Frozen Heart? Rather than slashing Frozen Heart, why not just slash the player!
65L: I’ll bet 5¢, Frozen Heart won’t be slashed!
A few days later, the game authorities reveal the list of demons that’ll undergo amendments on Weibo. 65th Bro’s face is slapped swollen – Frozen Heart is on that list!
However, after another few more days rolled by and precisely two days before the offline round begins, the game authorities announce the formal changes that’ll be made to the demons!
Congrats to 65th Bro! He won his bet!
That’s because Frozen Heart only appeared on the amendment list not because he’s being slashed, but because he’s being strengthened!
Having-just-made-the-resolution-never-to-ban-Frozen-Heart ANE: ……Who’s the one who jinxed us? Come on out, we promise we won’t beat you to death!

还好他以单身二十年的手速 : I didn’t understand this at first. Is this a dirty joke? Does JY use his hand to do the dirty so often? So, I ran it through youdao to check. And I got:

=u= You don’t say.)

Countdown to Last Day : 1 Tomorrow’s the last day! Do tune in to catch our final chapter of the Cour, as well as TamaNeko’s Interview-slash-Announcement for the next Cour~!
******
If you like what I’m doing, please donate to Covid-19 Relief Efforts!
For every USD$3 worth of donations accrued, I will add 1 chapter to the Cour, and release the extra chapter on the day itself (with a cap of +15 chapters).
You may also donate to a charity organization of your own liking (local or otherwise) that is currently helping out with the Covid-19 situation.
Please don’t forget to forward any confirmation email / screenshot of the confirmation page to [email protected], and drop a comment to let me know you donated!
Current Donations: $3/3 (+15)*
*We have reached the cap of the 15 extra chapters that are available for this Cour! The $3 balance left from the current Cour will be carried into the next Cour. In other words, 2 chapters will be released on the first day of the next Cour, so you get to enjoy~
Thank you for all your donations! And we seek your kind understanding in awaiting for the next batch of extras! ^^
