QIU MING finally exhaled as White Marsh dissolved into light particles. That last set of moves hadn't been part of his plan. He actually had to improvise it on the spot. When the notifications about Duan Yu and Song Liuli's elimination had popped up, panic had nearly taken over him. But he'd forced himself to stay calm, pushing aside all thoughts and letting his instincts take over - years of gaming experience guiding his movements when his mind went blank.
He should probably be relieved that White Marsh fell for his act and moved exactly how he predicted. But even with this victory, he could not bring himself to celebrate. How could he, when only he and the captain were left standing on their team?
Team Celestials wasn't weak—their string of championship wins proved that much. Yet team Yunyue had taken down three of their core members just by splitting them up. So what did that mean? Had their team been careless during this match? Or was Yunyue actually that strong?
