Chapter 134: Let's Clash Again Next Time

Page (1/3)

The Fountain’s damage struck Luna’s golden invincibility, ringing out with a sharp metallic chime.

Luna still wasn’t dead!

By then, Lin Hao had already sold the invincibility item and begun searching for a Resurrection Armor.

His speed while browsing the shop was absolutely faster than 99.9 percent of all players across the internet!

He found it at last and clicked Purchase…

Damn it, he didn’t have enough money!

Two seconds later, Lin Hao’s Luna was finally killed by the Fountain.

Naturally, the kill was credited to Marco Polo.

Meanwhile, on the front line, his teammates were steadily pushing forward.

In that exchange, Yifan’s Master Rooster had absorbed the enemy’s area-control skills, while Luna and Master Rooster had essentially fought five opponents together in a two-versus-five battle. After that, everything became much simpler. Zhou Yu’s flames swept forward. They were slightly slow, but within those flames, Lin Hao’s other three teammates were invincible.

With Sun Bin’s speed boost, Sun Shangxiang finally reached the front line. She rolled forward and killed Ma Chao with two shots.

Xiao Jin’s Li Bai likewise could not escape the gunfire of a fully healthy and fully empowered Sun Shangxiang. Two more shots sent him straight back to the fountain.

Li Bai and Ma Chao were already in poor condition, and they had no answer at all to Sun Shangxiang’s explosive burst damage.

At last, the team fight ended. Sun Shangxiang on Lin Hao’s side had gone completely berserk. The minion wave reached the crystal, and after a few shots, the enemy crystal exploded!

“Victory!”

Yifan’s livestream.

“Number one on the Peak Ranking!”

Yifan shouted.

As the game entered the results screen, everyone could see his Peak Ranking rise from second place to first.

In this promotion match, Yifan had overtaken Weiliang and become number one on the Peak Ranking.

“This is that man!”

Yifan’s fans were all extremely excited, and the chat began flying by at incredible speed.

“666!”

“That’s Yifan!”

“The ceiling of Master Rooster players!”

“How does he go horribly negative every game and still win every game? I really don’t understand. Can the streamer explain?”

“Yifan was the one who set the pace here, right? Without his initiation, could this fight even have happened?”

“Honestly, if Luna hadn’t pulled off that godlike play at the end and killed Marco Polo in the middle of the enemy army, this fight would have been an absolute loss.”

“I think Sun Shangxiang getting the triple kill at the end was the real key to that team fight.”

Yifan himself remained excited for a while before finally calming down and glancing at the chat.

The position they had taken in that team fight had actually been terrible.

The crucial point was that Zhang Fei’s ultimate had been devastating. It had directly stunned the backline of Lin Hao’s team—Sun Shangxiang, Zhou Yu, and Sun Bin.

Although Yifan’s Master Rooster had dodged Zhang Fei’s ultimate, he had made a mistake of his own: his flash-and-ultimate attempt on Weiliang had failed.

Even after his teammates followed up, their position was extremely dangerous. They had pushed deep into the enemy high ground, right up against the crystal and the Fountain.

If Marco Polo had managed to retreat to the Fountain and recover, Weiliang would have returned within two or three seconds. With his teammates behind him, he could still have launched a perfect encirclement and cleanup.

By then, the momentum would have been completely reversed.

Yifan carefully explained the details of the team fight to everyone, though he naturally placed the greatest emphasis on his own contribution to initiating it.

“But honestly, Luna also followed up extremely well that time. That play where he canceled his ultimate to kill Marco Polo was probably the deciding factor in the entire battle.”

“And there are still people talking about Sun Shangxiang? I can understand praising Luna, but forget Sun Shangxiang. I absorbed nearly all of the enemy’s abilities in that fight, while Luna provided the crowd control and damage. As for cleanup, Sun Shangxiang merely came in to finish off a few wounded enemies who were already out of position and had no skills available. Anyone can take the kills.”

“Our ten points of credit should be split fifty-fifty between Haoran and me, all right?”

Yifan had not neglected the entertainment value of his livestream either. After boasting about himself for a while, he thought for a moment and called his good friend, Emperor Ye.

…

In Weiliang’s livestream, he clicked on the rankings again and took another look at the Peak Ranking.

Sure enough, his main account had been overtaken.

Time to play on the main account!

As one of the finest junglers among all Honor of Kings solo-queue streamers, he knew that his limit was not first place on the Peak Ranking.

After all, once he had climbed past 2,600 points, Weiliang’s main account could no longer find opponents. The fundamental reason was that there were too few high-level players across the entire server, and everyone climbed far too slowly. That was why he had started playing on a secondary account.

Now that his main account had been overtaken, he was going to take the position back.

At that moment, Weiliang noticed that people in the chat kept bringing up Yifan.

“Yifan reached number one on the Peak Ranking again…”

“He can reach number one even while feeding horribly…”

Those white messages, posted by viewers without fan badges, were obviously there to stir up trouble. Weiliang chose to ignore them.

He also knew that this was simply how Yifan played. But judging the matter on its own merits, Weiliang had performed brilliantly in that team fight. He had even dodged Master Rooster’s flash-and-ultimate combination.

If the enemy Luna had not played so brilliantly, their team would have won that fight without question!

Especially at the very end, when Luna canceled his ultimate and flew straight to the Fountain, predicting the route Weiliang would take with his second skill. It had given Weiliang a suffocating sense that his thoughts had been completely seen through.

“Shared heartbeat?” Weiliang chuckled softly twice. It was true—in the instant the crystal exploded, his heartbeat had accelerated with anger.

Shark Haoran?

Next time, we’ll have another round. When I bring out Jing, will your Luna still be able to play this brilliantly?

…

After finishing the match, Lin Hao glanced at his livestream.

His popularity had skyrocketed!

Good heavens, it had already climbed past 3.8 million.

And this was only his first game after starting the stream.

Before launching the game, Lin Hao remembered that the number had been around three million.

“New viewers, if you think the streamer played well, feel free to follow.”

Lin Hao mentioned it briefly before continuing with the Peak match.

The chat, however, was buzzing with discussion.

“Haozi’s Luna is definitely at national-server level!”

“I think he’s better than Beimu Weiliang. Look at this game—he was outplaying the enemy the entire time. They never managed to outplay him.”

“If Weiliang had jungled this game and picked Jing, he would have slaughtered everyone.”

“Weiliang is trash. He played Marco Polo for the entire game and let Luna style all over him. He completely ruined Xiao Jin’s game.”

“Yifan went 3–6 and still became number one on the Peak Ranking. What do you guys think?”

“Nothing much to say. If Haoran hadn’t played so well this game, Weiliang would have carried them.”

“How can you people question Yifan’s Master Rooster?”

For a time, Lin Hao’s livestream attracted not only his own fans, but also large numbers of fans of Yifan, Xiao Jin, and Weiliang.

All three of those players possessed the skill to reach number one on the Peak Ranking, and all three had done so multiple times.

Their fans had clashed with one another countless times before.

As a result, after someone stirred up trouble in Lin Hao’s livestream, the fans of all three players immediately began arguing with one another.
