After ensuring that Purple Fairy had left, Qiao Lian turned around and made an assessment of their injuries. She frowned at once.
The injuries were more serious than she thought.
She wanted to take a closer look when The Godfather and The Deputy Godfather quickly shoved their hands into their pockets and said, “It’s okay, they are minor injuries. We can take it.”
CQ Team hadn’t recruited any reserve players, so now there were only five members.
Gritting her teeth and looking at them, she asked, “You are really okay?”
“Really, we’re okay.”
Even if they weren’t, they had to be.
The Godfather and The Deputy Godfather exchanged looks and did not say another word.
Su Penghao, hung his head and looked at his hands—his expression was frighteningly gloomy.
He had never thought that the Xiao Qiao he had known eight years ago would become the horrible person she was today.
Perhaps he could give her the benefit of the doubt once, but what had happened today… He wasn’t a fool!
Qiao Lian looked at Su Penghao with great concern. “Can you do it?”
Su Penghao looked down again. “I can.”
If they didn’t take part in the match today, it would be automatically considered a withdrawal.
Qiao Lian was worried about the team members, but before she could take care of the burn wounds, the organizing staff came shouting for them. “It’s your turn!”
The semifinals were an elimination round. Two out of the four teams would enter the finals.
Today, one team would be eliminated. The four remaining would be playing in two concurrent matches.
The winner would get more points, the two losers would continue to play, and the ultimate loser would be eliminated.
In the first match, CQ Team was set to play against King Team.
The match began and both parties shook hands.
Qiao Lian went on stage, coming face to face with Purple Fairy.
It was obvious that Purple Fairy was pretending to be concerned. “How are Zombie Leader and the team members?”
Qiao Lian scowled and replied, “Let’s stop with the pretense.”
Purple Fairy raised her eyebrow.
They were all part of the entertainment industry, she hadn’t thought that Qiao Lian would be such a straightforward person.
She lowered her voice and smirked, “Huh, Forget Chuan, I’ll make sure your team will be devastatingly defeated today! You’d be daydreaming if you think you can get into the finals!”
Qiao Lian narrowed her eyes. “Let’s wait and see! Do you think this time you can steal our strategy?”
Purple Fairy laughed derisively. “You are stubborn!”
On this note, she turned and walked away.
The match started.
Three games would be played to select two winners, thus the first game began!
After all the time they had spent in training, CQ team members were really well coordinated and had good chemistry.
Everyone felt great at the beginning of the match, they were able to fight to a mini climax.
Qiao Lian heaved a sigh of relief.
It appeared that the milk tea incident wasn’t affecting the team’s performance?
But as this thought appeared, she realized The Godfather had suddenly made a wrong move!
As a consequence of this wrong move, he was slain by the opponent.
Following this, The Deputy Godfather made another wrong move!
Their consecutive errors directly resulted in a shift in the situation.
Initially, CQ Team was poised to win the game but now, the situation had reversed.
In less than two minutes, they were beaten to a pulp by the opponent.
Qiao Lian sprang up from her seat, only to see that their central tower had fallen to the enemies and subsequently toppled over.
CQ Team had lost the first match!
Qiao Lian could not believe her eyes.
Clearly, the situation had been in their favour. How did that suddenly change?
And now, the second installment of the match began.
From the start of the event, The Godfather and The Deputy Godfather, and even Zombie Leader, made mistaken moves in their maneuvering.
It was no surprise that CQ Team flatly lost the game.
Qiao Lian sighed, knowing that the players’ hands would be hurting like crazy.
The second team had now started their match. Taking this opportunity, Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan headed off to the lounge to visit the team.
As they entered the lounge, they saw Ancestor White Bones. She was normally a calm and steady person, but at that moment, her eyes were bloodshot.
