Chapter 1014 NOT HIS LUCKY DAY

1014  NOT HIS LUCKY DAY

SHEN JI YUN resisted the urge to ask Luo Yan about what he had been up to. Because he already had an idea of what it was and asking Luo Yan would only put the other into an awkward position. After all, Luo Yan couldn't exactly say that he was preparing for his birthday.

At the end, Shen Ji Yun could only ask vaguely, "Is everything alright?"

"Yes, everything is perfect."

Seeing the bright smile on Luo Yan's lips, whatever he's planning must be going well. He wanted to say that he didn't need to do anything extravagant. Because whatever he prepared, even if it's just a 10 RMB item in a souvenir shop, he would still treat it like a treasure.

But of course, he wouldn't say that. Because this was Luo Yan's way of showing his love for him. Even he could understand that. Telling him to stop would simply undermine the other's efforts, and his feelings.

So, he decided to just change the subject and talk about the upcoming match.

"This will be our sixth match. Although we had won all our matches so far, it didn't mean that we should be overconfident," he started. "There are still four teams that we haven't fought, and one of them is team Sanguis. That team will definitely not be an easy opponent."

"How I wish they are our next opponent," Su Yuqi said with a rather bloody grin.

Luo Jin nodded along with a grim expression.

Seeing two people who had avatars that looked like children show that kind of expression could make one feel creepy.

"Why are you two so excited to fight them, anyway?" Bai Ze couldn't help but asked. "Aren't your friends with their vice-captain?" he asked Su Yuqi in particular.

"My immense dislike for their captain and me being friends with her are two different things," Su Yuqi said with a shrug.

"What did Alucard do to the two of you?" Bai Ze asked, still feeling curious.

"Let's just say that he deserves whatever beating he gets," Luo Jin only said.

"Regardless of your grudge against him, I hope that will not affect the strategy we formed against team Sanguis," Shen Ji Yun reminded the two.

"Don't worry, we're not that childish," Su Yuqi said, before turning to Luo Jin. "Right, Ah Jin?"

Luo Jin wanted to say 'yes', but for some reason, he felt like he would be lying if he did. It's a good thing that the time for them to teleport to Lunaris Vale had come, so even if he didn't respond, Su Yuqi wouldn't think that he was deflecting.

As people were waiting for the next match of Block E, comments already filled the barrage of the livestream.

[There are four teams that have a match at this time in Block E. Who do you think will fight with who?]

[I hope it would be team Yunyue and team Sanguis.]

[Right? I've been waiting for that match up since I found out that they're on the same block.]

[Nah, having them fight now is a bit anti-climactic, don't you think? Like, they're undoubtedly the best team on their block. It's almost certain the two of them would advance to the final tournament. So, wouldn't it be better if they fight the last on their block?]

[Wow. From what I remembered, most of your people didn't think team Yunyue is good enough to even win their first match. And now, they're suddenly top 2 in the block for you?]

[True. As if they're not mocking team Yunyue when the qualifiers started.]

[Are people no longer allowed to change their mind? Besides, it's not like that's the majority of people's opinion.]

[But it's true that having the two teams fight now is definitely anticlimactic. Their match should be the finale of their block, don't you think?]

[You people are just weird. Saying that they should be the finale was like insulting the other teams in their block.]

[LOL I suddenly want team Yunyue and team Sanguis fight now just to piss you all off.]

"Brother Ru, have you read the comments on the livestream? They want us to fight with team Yunyue!" the blue wolf beastman, Tang Xun, said excitedly. "I also want to fight them!"

"Argh... please don't wish for that. I want to go home early," a girl with green feather-like hair and a pair of bird wings behind her back said.

"Why, is Xiao Ya not confident we can win against Yunyue?" Yin Jian asked with a raised brow.

The girl, Zhang Ya, frowned. "That's a trick question, right? I won't answer that."

"No matter whether we're fighting Yunyue or not, I want all of you to do your best," Qin Rushi said. "In short, no losing control and fighting everyone, no lazying about, no manipulating the opposing team by messing around with them." She said those while looking at Tang Xun, Zhang Ya, and Yin Jian, in that order. Then her gaze landed lastly at their team's unreliable captain. "And no going off on your own to do whatever you want to do."

"Hey, princess, don't make it sound like I'm irresponsible," Xu Ru said with a smile. "Especially not today."

"Today?" Qin Rushi asked, not really like where this guy was going with this.

Xu Ru grinned. "Because I'm feeling lucky today."

He had a feeling that their team would finally face team Yunyue in today's match.

----------

Team Yunyue teleported to Lunaris Vale, and they were transported to a mangrove forest.

"Wow, Master, look, Eclipse can see the roots of those trees!" Eclipse said excitedly.

"A mangrove forest, this is new," Luo Yan said while looking around.

As they looked around, the match notification finally appeared.

[Yunyue vs....]

----------

Xu Ru looked at the match notification and clicked his tongue. He narrowed his eyes at the names of the two teams floating in front of him.

"I guess this is not your lucky day, after all," Qin Rushi said with a hint of teasing.
