Those Sweet Times
Chapter 66 Part 3

Not only was Xiang Nuan a far cry from a weak player, she had a good understanding of all warrior type champions. She could play Laofuzi with skill and when in danger, swiftly flee.

She wasn’t the weakest link of her team, rather she was the toughest rock of her team. Team Rubik’s Cube tried their best to target Xian Nuan but to little benefit. Soon they lost their momentum and eventually lost the match.

Team Rubik’s Cube learned their lesson for the second match. They gave Xiang Nuan the highest compliment -- --they banned Laofuzi first.

Xiang Nuan chose Yang Jian as her champion based on Yang Yin’s advice.

Xiang Nuan didn’t know what had happened to her but she played her champions so smoothly today. Even her teammates had noticed and deliberately let her farm more. Xiang Nuan’s Yang Jian was the most developed champion among her team. Yang Jian has a pet, a noble dog. He could order his dog to bite an enemy. Whoever was bitten by the dog, Yang Jian gained a speed boost to chase after the marked target. This ability had a long range and was useful for chasing after the enemy, cutting in behind the enemy line, and very useful for running away-- --The dog could bite a minion or monster, then Yang Jian would dash off. It was difficult for the enemy to catch up with him.

During the match, the dog never missed. The enemy’s rhythm was in shambles. For any team, if it was difficult for their mage or marksman to develop, then the team basically had at least an 80% chance of losing.

Team Rubik’s Cube lost the second match.

After the game, both teams walked over to shake hands. The player of Rubik’s Cube said to Xiang Nuan: “Do girls nowadays all play this well?”

Xiang Nuan was a little irritated: “Is gender that important?”

After saying that, she suddenly felt a hand on top of her head. The hand rubbed her hair and patted her head.

Lin Chuyan: “You played well.” He retracted his hand after saying so.

Xiang Nuan: “Don’t mess up my hairdo.”

Lin Chuyan curved up his mouth.

Waiwai looked at them and then turned to look at Shen Zemu. Then he gave out a long sigh and patted Shen Zemu’s shoulder, he didn’t have anything to say.

The next opponent for Xiang Nuan’s team in the final match was Team Poetry and Distance.

There was a one hour break between the semi final and final games. Yang Yin gathered her players to their assigned room. They briefly reviewed videos of the previous two games Team Poetry and Distance had played.

The conclusion after they finished watching the videos was that this team used very few champions during their matches.

In other words, they had a very shallow champion pool.

This team made their way to the finals simply because their opponents didn’t have the chance or time to study them and come up with a proper strategy.

But now Xiang Nuan’s team could do that.

It was even easier for Xiang Nuan’s team in the finals than the semi finals. They only had to ban or pick all of the other team’s favorite champions or come up with a lineup that would counter the enemy’s champions…...There wasn’t a need for a complicated strategy to counter a team with a shallow champion pool.

They easily won the provincial championship. Waiwai came out of the arena and was the first one to cheer: “We got the 20,000 award money! 4,000 for each! I’ll pretend I’ve gotten a scholarship!”

Xiang Nuan reminded him: “Don’t get overexcited. Don’t forget our coach! You plan to let our coach work for nothing?”

“Just give me a small share and it’ll be fine.”  Yang Yin was just as excited. She turned her head and noticed that Shen Zemu was looking at everyone with some warmth in his eyes. Yang Yin said to him: “You played well.”

Shen Zemu still responded with an “en” without much emotion.

The six friends went looking for a place to eat dinner. Yang Yin noticed that Lin Chuyan was driving a Mercedes Benz today and enviously asked Lin Chuyan whether he would let her drive it.

The request was what Lin Chuyan had wished for. He could then sit right next to Xiang Nuan.

Xiang Nuan was especially excited about winning the game and kept talking to Waiwai and the others. They reminisced about the good plays and sang praises to each other…...It was bustling with noise inside the car.

Lin Chuyan wasn’t bothered by it at all. He sat quietly next to Xiang Nuan and looked down at his cell phone. He was sending a message to Chen Yinghu.

Lin Chuyan: I plan to confess to her. As someone who has more experience, do you have any good suggestions for me?

Chen Yinghu: Brother, we broke up!

Lin Chuyan: …...
