Lin Xiaoxiao cried as she watched, and the staff around her also sobbed quietly, but everyone tacitly refrained from disturbing each other.
Lin Xiaoxiao had never felt that a game could last so long or be so agonizing.
When the Dragon Team eliminated a member of the Fifty Points Team, she couldn't help but close her eyes. Her heart clenched again. She really deserved to die!
I should have banned professional teams from participating! Why did she only stipulate that you have to be at least fifty years old? As long as you can still move one finger and sit up, you can participate!
She deserves to die!
"They won! Congratulations to Team 50 for winning the first game! Just one more win and they'll advance to the global top four of 'The Secret of Penglai Island'!!"
Lin Xiaoxiao only dared to open her eyes when she heard the deafening cheers from the crowd. She had actually won! *sobs*
The good news is that we won; the bad news is that it's a best-of-three series, with one more game to go.
Who designed this tournament schedule?! Can't they just decide the winner in one match?!
Oh, she approved it, she deserves to die! This is too agonizing!! Maybe I should just kill her first!!
The Dragon Team, being the champion team of Country X, changed their strategy in the second game against the Fifty Team, bringing the score to one-one.
Lin Xiaoxiao felt like her heart had almost stopped. This was only the semi-finals! After this competition was finished, she would definitely get a thorough check-up and take good care of her heart. This competition was really putting a strain on the director's heart!
In the final game, she closed her eyes, and you could hear sobbing in her ear; the situation didn't look good.
Rather than letting this game end in the blink of an eye, it's better to watch it to the end; perhaps this is their last game.
Lin Xiaoxiao watched as the Fifty Team showed a clear disadvantage in the game, lacking personnel and resources. As time went on, these disadvantages gradually worsened and intensified.
My vision was blurring, and the commentator's voice rang in my ears, "At this point, the gap between Team Fifty and Team Dragon is widening. This match..."
Sheng Yiyi's gentle yet firm voice came through the earpiece, "I'm looking forward to a miracle team. No one had ever thought highly of Team Fifty before, but they made it to the national competition and the quarterfinals. Their existence itself is a miracle. Until the very end of the competition, no one knows who the winner will be."
Some audience members couldn't bear the emotional torment and left in tears.
However, many viewers were still shedding tears while silently following Sheng Yiyi's voice, hoping for a miracle.
"The 50th team has been ambushed and has already lost two members, but their damage dealer is still alive, so they have chosen to counterattack! The Dragon team seems to have been stunned by their opponent's unpredictable moves, and the five members have scattered and retreated. However, the 50th team's damage dealer seems unwilling to let them go so easily, and the Dragon team's damage dealer has been killed!"
Should we chase them?! Team 50 can still fight! Team Dragon ambushed Team 50, and only one support escaped! Keep chasing! Team wipe!! Is there enough time? Should we wait for another wave? Team 50 chooses not to wait, they're going for a blitzkrieg!! Congratulations to Team 50!! Let's congratulate this veteran team, sob sob, congratulations on successfully advancing to the semifinals!! Team 50, never retreat!!
The audience members, just like the commentators, were pushed to their breaking point and finally broke down in tears.
"The 50-point team is awesome!!!"
"Squad 50!!"
The screams and cries at the scene exploded like a nuclear bomb. Just five minutes earlier, the scene had been quiet before the storm, as if dark clouds had already gathered.
In those brief five minutes, the sunlight tore through the dark clouds and shone back onto the field, onto the five members of Team Fifty.
The dazzling spotlight brought tears to the eyes of the audience.
If you believe, miracles will happen!
"We also want to thank Team Dragon for delivering a fantastic performance."
Hearing the staff around her laughing and crying, Lin Xiaoxiao felt relieved. Luckily, she had won. She didn't even want to think about what would have happened if she had lost. In the past, she was called "Lin Dog" by netizens for not being able to make sarcastic remarks. If she had lost today, she felt that netizens would have torn her apart.
Fortunately, there were no more formidable opponents like the X Country Dragons team after that, but we still can't let our guard down.
If other teams lose a match, the audience might criticize the team, but if this 50-point team loses, Lin Xiaoxiao clutches her heart, not daring to think about it.
It's definitely not good to have rules that are too broad!
"A big thank you to the organizers of the competition, Feiyang Games. It's been a long time since we've had such a fun competition with others. We're all old bones now, and it's not appropriate for us to really fight. We old friends don't know how much longer we have left, and every time we meet, it's one less time we'll see each other. This competition has brought us together again."
The old sergeant spoke shakily, recalling how he used to be frequently interviewed by reporters as young as themselves and even younger, who would ask him to recount his experiences on the battlefield. At first, the reporters' eyes would tremble slightly, but they would thank him at the end of the interview because they, too, had experienced it.
Some old friends enjoy being interviewed, telling the newcomers about the past over and over again. But he doesn't like those interviews. The pairs of eyes keep changing, the gazes are clearer, but they no longer have the familiar look he knew.
It's as if their past has long since become words in a history book, and those who experienced it firsthand are gradually disappearing.
A while ago, he overheard his grandson asking him what it meant to be a worrier.
After he finished speaking, he said that the person was just making trouble for himself.
But to his surprise, his grandson revealed the origin of the idiom, leaving him stunned.
The saying "the man of Qi worries about the sky falling" stems from past experiences with meteorites; relocation doesn't guarantee protection against being struck by one. As a result, the people in this area constantly look up at the sky, fearing a meteorite might fall.
However, in the course of history, it gradually became a derogatory term and was ridiculed by later generations.
When those who experienced it firsthand are no longer alive, future generations will have new interpretations, and perhaps one day their past actions will be seen as wrong.
He never regretted it, yet he already felt he had become a fool. The innocent descendants might not remember them, or perhaps one day their actions would become a source of endless lament, like those of Xianglin's wife.
Therefore, he no longer gives interviews as often to tell stories of the past to those young people with clear eyes.
Because of the long years, his memories of the past have become blurred, and the children with clear eyes no longer need to hear those so-called "exaggerated" stories from this old man with a poor memory, because he believes that they will all have new stories to tell.
