Chapter 37
In the training session, eight days had passed. During these eight days, everyone was busy training day and night. If Qin Peng hadn't reminded them that they should go to bed and eat, they would probably have forgotten the concept of time.
It is worth mentioning that after several days of training, the cooperation level of the five people has been significantly improved. Although they cannot reach the level of insight into their own ideas with just one action teammate, it is not far from that. After all, everyone is fighting for the same goal and they are very cooperative.
During the training these few days, Qin Peng also discovered his support. The little boy Qingshan has a very profound understanding of every auxiliary hero. He is a bit introverted and will boldly point out Qin Peng's shortcomings every time. This also makes Qin Peng feel like he is dying on the beach. However, Qin Peng is also more confident. Even if this team does not have Leng Yan for the time being, Qingshan can play the role of the auxiliary very well.
As for Yuan Cheng, except for the few people who need to train every day, he would go to the corner of the Internet cafe to find a machine, and then train himself silently. Qin Peng was very curious about going over and seeing what Yuan Cheng was training. However, Yuan Cheng maintained a sufficient sense of mystery. Every time someone approached, he would immediately cut out the game interface except Wang Tao. Qin Peng also asked Wang Tao, but Wang Tao also smiled mysteriously and said, "You will know then." Later, Qin Peng simply ignored it. As long as he was not watching something like ***** in the corner, Yuan Cheng should have a good idea of what else he was willing to do.
On the afternoon of the eighth day, Lu Xueqing came to the Internet cafe early after lunch. As soon as she arrived at the Internet cafe, she saw Qin Peng and the others eating lunch boxes while gathering in front of a computer to watch the game videos of other teams. Lu Xueqing walked behind them in a low voice and patted Qin Peng on the shoulder.
Qin Peng felt someone behind him. When he turned around, he saw Lu Xueqing looking at him with a smile. Qin Peng immediately reacted, "Everyone stop for a while, let's see later." When everyone finished their meal, Qin Peng and his friends sat around Lu Xueqing, "Xueqing, you come here at this time, probably to tell us about the specific situation of the game, right?"
Lu Xueqing smiled and nodded: "Yes, the competition will officially start in another day. I think there are some specific things to tell you in advance." After a deliberately paused, seeing that Qin Peng and his men's expressions became serious, Lu Xueqing also put away her smile and continued seriously: "First talk about the competition system. There are 32 teams participating in the Internet cafe league in Nanjing this time, and they will be divided into two groups. In this way, there are 16 teams in each group, and each team plays 4 games. The four teams with the highest winning rate will be the top 4 in the group stage and finally participate in the quarterfinals of the league. In order to maintain fairness, the league organizers will draw lots tomorrow afternoon to decide the opponents of each team. I will go over and notify you tomorrow night that you will encounter those opponents, but you don't have too much pressure. I believe that with your strength, there should be no big problem to enter the quarterfinals."
After listening to Lu Xueqing's explanation, Qin Peng and the others also lowered their heads and thought. After a while, Qin Peng said in confusion: "The competition system is no problem, we can all understand it, but if you say so, won't this Internet cafe league be held for a long time?"
After hearing this, Lu Xueqing smiled and said, "Don't worry, according to the news I have received, you will play 4 quarter-finals qualifiers, all of which are a certain victory or defeat. Moreover, the organizer means that all the qualifiers will be played within two days, so you don't have to worry about this. The league chief should finish within two weeks."
When Qin Peng heard Lu Xueqing say this, he nodded and replied with a smile: "Since you say this, there is no problem. Our training in recent days has reached a bottleneck. The opponents in the early stage should not be too strong. We don't have the right opponent to accompany us. Just use the battle to support the battle in the quarterfinals." Qin Peng said, looking around his teammates sitting next to him. Yuan Cheng and the others looked confident when they heard Qin Peng say this. Indeed, for them now, ordinary volleyball competitions can no longer have much training effect. Only after truly experiencing the baptism of the game can everyone grow up.
Lu Xueqing stood there, and when she saw Qin Peng's words, she ignited the confidence of others. Her eyes flashed with a moving light. Lu Xueqing smiled slightly, nodded at Qin Peng and the others, then said some encouraging words, and left the Internet cafe.
Qin Peng looked at Lu Xueqing's figure leaving, thinking in his heart that this woman didn't know what she was busy with all day long, and often couldn't see people. However, Qin Peng quickly felt relieved. Who doesn't have some things to do? Just like himself, isn't he busy training and preparing for the competition all day long?
In the more than one day left, Qin Peng practiced tactics with several other people, and cooperated with some skills in team battles. The rest of the time allowed them to go to the first zone alone or double row by themselves. It can be felt that if the previous few days were busy and could not feel that the game was coming, then now, everyone, including Qin Peng, had a nervous mood that could not be restrained at all for the approaching game. After all, they were all participating in the competition for the first time. Although they were confident in their strength, this situation would definitely continue. It seems that only after truly experiencing the baptism of the game can everyone truly grow up.
It was soon the last night before the game. Lu Xueqing rushed over and explained to Qin Peng and the others the results of the draw. Qin Peng and his team were in Group A. Although there were some strong teams, the result after the draw was that their opponents in four games were relatively average, and the only stronger team. The strongest position in the team was Huo Yu. Qin Peng heard this and filtered the team directly. No matter how strong the top laner is, can it be stronger than the current Fire Rain? In recent days of training, Huo Yu's strong and steady image has been deeply imprinted in everyone's minds. Huo Yu is transforming. Qin Peng has very strong confidence in him now.
Finally, Lu Xueqing smiled and waved her fists with Qin Peng and others: "Come on, I will come back tomorrow morning to pick you up to the game. Remember to have a good rest tonight. If you win the qualifiers, I will give you a surprise at that time." After saying that, he looked at Wang Tao and Yuan Cheng with a charming look, and Wang Tao and Yuan Cheng shouted that they couldn't stand it.
After seeing off Lu Xueqing, Qin Peng stood in front of others, his eyes passed through everyone's face seriously. Finally, he took a deep breath and asked in a confident voice: "Do you have the confidence to win the four qualifiers?"
"No problem!" Yuan Cheng and the others also responded with confidence.
Hearing the answers from others, Qin Peng laughed, turned around, and said with a smile: "Okay, then go to bed now, we will set off tomorrow morning!" The others also responded.
However, the tragic thing is that several people were all lying on the bed toss and turns and unable to sleep because they were too excited. Of course, this has to be eliminated. He has been training hard every day recently and is really tired. He is sleeping soundly while snoring.
"Brother Peng, Brother Yu, are you nervous?" Wang Tao, who couldn't sleep, turned to the side and asked Qin Peng and Huo Yu.
"Well, it's okay, but you have to rest early when you are nervous, and you have to ensure your mental fitness." Qin Peng heard Wang Tao's question, but instead instructed Wang Tao, Huo Yu didn't say anything, pretending to be asleep. Wang Tao responded "Oh", and then there was no sound.
Lying on the bed, looking through the window at the night outside the window, Qin Peng couldn't help feeling a little sad. After all, there was still too little time for himself, and many problems had not been solved. Qin Peng was really unable to feel at ease with such a team that still had many unstable factors. He sighed and Qin Peng closed his eyes. Everything was enough to take one step.
The first day of the quarterfinals qualifiers.
Several people slept too late because they were too nervous last night, but they prepared everything according to the time Lu Xueqing said last night. Qingshan was already at the Internet cafe and met with Qin Peng and the others when it was still dawn.
It was almost 7:30, and Qin Peng and his group stood at the door of the Internet cafe waiting for Lu Xueqing to arrive. Soon, Lu Xueqing drove to the Internet cafe in a van. After the group got in, they began to drive to the first Internet cafe today.
"At the beginning, every team could compete in their own representative Internet cafe, but the organizer rejected our request considering that our Internet cafe is now in a recession, so he refused our request. There was no way. Thank you for your hard work in the qualifiers these two days." Lu Xueqing explained to Qin Peng and the others while driving the car.
"What a big deal. It's not the same wherever you play, but then again, Sister Xueqing, you can still drive?" Yuan Cheng, who was sitting in the back, replied the first time. Wang Tao, who was sitting next to Yuan Cheng, looked at Yuan Cheng with contempt and thought to himself: "A gangster is a gangster. He doesn't ask about his age and calls him sister. It's cliché."
Lu Xueqing didn't care about Yuan Cheng's call to him, and still nodded with a smile. Qin Peng was sitting in the passenger seat. At this time, he also turned around and said to others: "I will arrive at the Internet cafe later. I guess the number of people should not be small. After all, I think the Internet cafe league is also very formal. Don't put too much pressure on yourself during the next game. Just like training in an Internet cafe, I believe we will definitely get a good start." Hearing Qin Peng say this, Wang Tao and Yuan Cheng also put away their other thoughts and nodded seriously.
When the vehicle drove near the Internet cafe, Qin Peng realized that the number of people on the scene was far worse than he estimated. Although it was just a quarter-finals qualifier, the onlookers still kept the inside and outside of the Internet cafe, and more people who could not enter the Internet cafe stood on the windows outside the Internet cafe and looked wildly at the scene inside the Internet cafe. Except for Qin Peng and Huo Yu, everyone else also looked out of the car window in surprise. Qingshan was even more timid and dared not look. Qin Peng smiled helplessly. After Lu Xueqing parked the car, she opened the door and walked down the first time.
"You're all looking out, but you're scared when it's just an Internet cafe league? Let me tell you, when we play in the international arena in the future, the number of people watching will be dozens, hundreds, and thousands of times that you're watching now! So, now put away your timidity, follow me in with your head raised, and then walk out with your head raised, do you know?" Seeing Wang Tao and the others who were still hesitating to get off the car, Qin Peng raised his face and said beside the car.
Qin Peng's words may have aroused their desire to win. The rest of them opened the door and got out of the car, and stood beside Qin Peng with his head raised with courage. "Brother Peng, can we really play in the international arena?" Although Qingshan was no longer so timid, he still asked Qin Peng with a trembling voice.
Qin Peng heard the smile and patted Qingshan on the shoulder, turned to look at the Internet cafe, waved his right hand hard, "I need you to tell me with a beautiful victory, can we tell me if we can!" Then he raised his head and strode towards the Internet cafe, and the rest quickly reacted. Although his face was a little red, he still followed Qin Peng with his head and raised his head and followed.
Lu Xueqing stood by the car and watched Qin Peng inspire other teammates, especially the confident statement that waved his hand at the end, which kept coiling around Lu Xueqing's ears. Lu Xueqing watched them raise their heads and moved forward, smiled and followed quickly. "Maybe, they can really go to a height where others need to look up to!" Lu Xueqing thought in her heart.
Several people quickly walked to the Internet cafe. Looking at the door that was completely blocked, Qin Peng frowned and shouted loudly: "We are the team to participate today, please let us go."
The eyes around him heard Qin Peng's voice and turned their heads to look at Qin Peng and his group of people.
"Is this the team that is here to compete today? Why is there a child?"
"Yes, and you see that they are blushing a little. Is this the first time I have seen such a scene? Hahaha."
"I don't even have the minimum team uniform for the competition, and I'm here to participate in the competition. I really don't know what these people think."
"Haha, I can already see them running away in shame by the United Internet Cafe team later."
I thought the people around me would consciously give way, but I didn't expect that as soon as I shouted, I was greeted by most of the people around me. The five people stood there in a fixed manner, and Qin Peng didn't say anything, but just stood there with the others. At this time, Lu Xueqing rushed over and showed her participation certificate with the security guards who were also watching around me. After a while, several security guards slowly dispersed the people around me, allowing Qin Peng and the five people to enter the Internet cafe, and Lu Xueqing followed closely behind.
As soon as you enter the Internet cafe, the environment is obviously not as noisy as outside, but looking at the eyes of the people around you, Qin Peng knew that even if he was not in such a bad situation, there would still be people looking at you and talking about gossip in places you can't see. Looking back at the others, except Huo Yu, he also raised his head and followed him, Yuan Cheng and the others lowered their heads. Just when Qin Peng felt a little depressed, Lu Xueqing quickly followed, using a voice that only a few of them could hear, and said with a smile: "Remember not to show mercy later. No matter how others look down on you, you can use the most ugly tactics to win them and shut up!"
