Currently, there are four teams left.
GH, Jun Chen, Mu Yu Shi Feng, and Ba Zhe.
The latter three were all from Group A in the original qualifying rounds. Only GH was from Group B.
So this matter has been hotly discussed on the Internet.
[It seems that there are only two final matches left. Although the groups no longer exist, since three of them were from the original Group A, it looks like GH might be ganged up on.]
[The groups are no longer in effect. Former teammates are now opponents.]
[Since the group stage, those two teams haven't met each other. Even in the current semi - finals, they are separated... Are they really fated opponents? Just thinking about this makes me feel excited.]
[I suggest that everyone should maintain a calm attitude. Any of the four current teams is a strong contender for the championship. They all have their own strengths. It's really hard to guess who will be the champion at this moment. Let's just silently support our favorite teams.]
This comment is quite objective.
Any of the four teams remaining on the field is a strong candidate for the championship. It's hard to tell who is better for the time being, but they all have their own unique advantages.
Ji Siyue had been training with the team members for the past few days. The official competition would be tomorrow, so no one dared to relax. Even during meals, they were silent.
Ji Siyue quietly observed their states. Without making a sound, she went downstairs, drove to the supermarket, bought several hundred dollars' worth of snacks, and then came back and threw them on the second - floor floor.
When the others saw what Ji Siyue did, they took off their headsets and asked curiously, "What's going on with you?"
"Eat all these! Hurry up! After you finish eating, try on our new team uniforms. Don't continue training tonight. You've prepared well enough. Over - training will only backfire."
Actually, everyone also wanted to continue training, but what Ji Siyue said made sense. So they had to put aside their current operations.
The snacks Ji Siyue bought were delicious, but everyone was under a bit of pressure, so they ate without much enjoyment.
Qin Chengyao was under the most pressure.
The journey so far had been extremely arduous. Although their lineup was getting stronger, the opponents were also getting tougher. Even Qin Chengyao didn't have much confidence in his heart.
Ji Siyue patted Xing Xing on the shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Go downstairs and get our team uniforms. They're in my car's trunk. I just picked them up."
"Okay!"
Xing Xing clapped his hands and ran downstairs. Then he carried the custom - made team uniforms up.
The new uniforms were very nice. They were mainly white, with red lines on the arms and legs. It was still the familiar Fu Ma brand, but this time, two things were printed on the left chest.
One was a red flag, and the other was the team logo.
These team uniforms gave a stronger sense of teamwork than the ones they had bought in bulk from the mall last time. When everyone saw these uniforms, their spirits were lifted.
Nan Gongqi immediately put on the team uniform jacket and zipped it all the way up, looking very upright. Then he took a selfie with his phone and sent it to his fiancée, showing off and asking her to praise him.
Ji Siyue just rolled her eyes at this and distributed the uniforms to everyone.
Seeing that everyone was studying the team logos on the uniforms, Ji Siyue couldn't help but take out her phone and say, "How about we all put on the new uniforms and take a photo? I'll post it on Weibo."
As soon as this idea came up, everyone immediately agreed.
"Sure!"
A few minutes later, everyone came out. Bai He even styled his hair in a rather flamboyant way and said, "Guys, are you in love with me?"
Everyone else: "Eww!"
After a flurry of preparations, they were finally ready to take the photo.
Originally, Ji Siyue wanted them to stand still while she took the photo with her phone. But they all wanted to be in the photo too. So they rummaged through the whole base and finally found a phone stand that could be placed on the ground.
It took about half an hour in total, but they finally took a photo.
In the photo, they were standing under the dim yellow light, looking very warm.
Ji Siyue was very satisfied with the photo. Then she clicked on the video function and said, "Everyone, stay still! I'll take a photo of you!"
But actually, it was a video!
She pretended to be about to start the countdown, then quickly ran in front of everyone and stood in the middle.
At this moment, Qin Chengyao quietly grabbed Ji Siyue's hand. Ji Siyue was startled at first. She looked into Qin Chengyao's eyes, and the two of them smiled at each other. Then they each grabbed the hands of the people on their left and right sides, and everyone stood hand in hand.
They all had smiles on their faces, looking like a harmonious family.
They maintained this pose for a long time. In the end, Nan Gongqi's smile was about to fade. He grimaced and asked, "Why haven't I heard the sound effect yet? Siyue, did you forget to press the button?"
Zhu Zhiyao also said, "This is the longest five seconds of my life."
"Pfft!"
Ji Siyue finally couldn't hold it in anymore. She let go of the hands of the two people beside her, ran to the phone, picked it up, and pressed save.
"I didn't press the button just now. Forget it. Let's just use the first one. I'll go post it on Weibo first. Everyone go wash up and go to sleep. I'll make a loving breakfast for you all myself tomorrow morning."
Qin Chengyao walked up to her, seriously grabbed her shoulders, and said gently but firmly, "Siyue, if you want us to win the semi - finals, just stay at ease. We're really worried about you."
The people behind him nodded their heads like springs.
Ji Siyue: "… Is my cooking really that bad?"
Everyone: "Yes!"
Qin Chengyao turned around and shouted, "Get out of here!"
Everyone scattered with laughter. Ji Siyue and Qin Chengyao walked hand in hand to the balcony to enjoy the breeze.
To be honest, at this moment, sweet words were of little use.
Maybe what they needed most now was just a warm hug from their loved one.
After reaching the balcony, Qin Chengyao immediately pulled her into his arms.
"To be honest, I'm really not confident. We've been preparing for this game with all our might, but none of the three opponents will be easy to defeat."
"You've also said that it's already this far. Winning or losing doesn't really matter anymore," Ji Siyue patted his shoulder. "The most important thing is to enjoy the game."
