WG training room —

"Lower your waist! Be faster!"

"Focus! Swing! Push!"

Maple Moon Team Training Room—

"Relax—"

"Inhale-exhale-chest-open-"

Starfish looked sad and angry.

why! Why do they practice yoga! What kind of yoga is a group of big men doing! Why not teach them martial arts and boxing? Tai Chi also works!

"Why..." he muttered to himself, "Shi Yi, why don't you speak?"

When he turned his head, he found that he was struggling to maintain the inclined tablet, his hands were trembling, as if he was about to fall at any moment, but the photographer on the side was not willing to let him go, and was bending over to take a close-up of him.

How miserable.

Thinking that what they are training now will be filmed as a documentary and posted on the Internet, Hai Xing feels ashes.

After a set of core exercises for the waist and abdomen were practiced, everyone was so tired that they were sweating profusely, lying on their backs on the mat.

Starfish sat up suddenly, "Brother Kun! Why do we practice yoga?"

Zhou Jing said calmly, "I want to know who came up with the idea."

Brother Kun said kindly and kindly, "The decision of the top of the club to practice yoga is of course for the sake of your body. Look at you, sitting in front of the computer every day, whether training or competition, sitting for an average of 14 hours a day, your waist is protruding, The legs are weak and the belly is rising, so how can we still compete? The body is the capital of the revolution, we must combine work and rest, do more exercise to relax the muscles and bones, the club has specially planned this event considering everyone’s physical condition.”

Shi Yi was covered in sweat, "Then why can't we switch to another sport?"

Starfish shouted, "I want to play table tennis too!"

Brother Kun directly used force, "What kind of table tennis are you playing! Usually you are the craziest on the field, and you also play table tennis in expansion activities? Do you think fans want to see you play table tennis or practice yoga? Do you want me to send a Weibo appeal on the spot? Fans vote?"

"Don't, don't." Hai Xing waved his hand quickly, he didn't want to let fans know that he was practicing yoga so soon, and he still had to show his style in the playoffs.

Besides, now fans are watching the fun and don't think it's a big deal, let them vote? 100% Yoga!

Brother Kun alone silenced them all.

Everyone was about to admit it and continue training when they heard the coach next door roar, "Go hard! Do you think you are practicing yoga when you are soft?"

Fan Jingming was stimulated and immediately raised his hand, "I protest!"

Brother Kun killed him with one look, "What are you protesting?"

Fan Jingming laughed dryly, "I mean, this set of movements is too intense, is there anything simpler?"

Teacher Li nodded, "I also teach traditional yoga. If you are tired, we can do some traditional yoga movements to soothe your muscles and bones."

"Okay!" Hai Xing nodded again and again, this group of core strength training was killing him.

But less than 2 seconds after he was happy, he saw Mr. Li do a 180° horizontal split, and his upper body fell to the ground.

"Come, everyone, join me in the wide-angle pose."

Fengyue Zhong: "..." Take a hammer!

"Don't worry, your body sinks slowly, and your legs are as wide as possible."

Starfish grinned for a while, exerting all the strength to suckle, but couldn't split her legs.

Song Xueyang split his legs to 120° and gave up, smiling and admiring the hideous expressions of his teammates.

Shen Huai was trying the splits when Song Xueyang asked, "How do you feel?"

"good."

Shen Huai has received professional fitness training. As long as he masters the core strength points, many movements are changing the soup instead of the medicine. Pilates is simpler for him than traditional yoga. However, the splits are easy, but it is difficult to stick the upper body to the ground.

He was trying his best to press his waist when he heard an exclamation from behind him.

On the yoga mat behind him, Zhou Ning not only split his legs into a straight line, but even his head touched the ground, exactly the same as the teacher's demonstration.

Shi looked stunned, "Brother Ning is amazing!"

Zhou Ning didn't care, "When I was in junior high school, the school organized us to perform group dances every year."

Everyone: "..." It is also a nine-year compulsory education, why is your school so excellent!

After the WG training was over, they heard a wailing and wolf howling coming from the next door, and looked in through the window.

Ho! Incredible.

I saw the Maple Moon team members lying on the yoga mat, twisting their bodies into strange arcs, their expressions stiff and distorted, which can be described as split canths.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Jiayan asked bluntly.

Song Xueyang turned his head with a smile, "Special training, Yan team to try?"

Zhang Jiayan didn't feel like trying just by seeing their distorted expressions, "Forget it."

He wanted to leave, but it wasn't that easy.

Fan Jingming's eyes and hands were quick, he grabbed Zhang Jiayan's arm and took it inside, "Don't say team, come here, try it, the key is to participate!"

"exactly!"

Fengyue everyone rushed forward and pressed the WG players on the yoga mat one by one.

Jia Yunge split a fork very easily, and spread his arms in the shape of a white swan. Everyone already knew his character very well, and they applauded and praised Jia Yunge.

Liang Minghui was forced down by Hai Xing and Fan Jingming, Zhang Jiayan was surrounded by a group of people, and his bowels were green with regret. If he knew he would not ask, Song Xueyang, the old fox, had to trick him.

Jia Yunge cheered on and gave him an exaggerated demonstration.

Zhang Jiayan bit his head and pressed down hard, only to hear a "hiss", and the pants were opened.

Everyone immediately burst into laughter, laughing together in twos and threes.

After the training of the day, the two teams gathered in the lobby to play Werewolf Killing. Zhang Jiayan had never played before, and now he is learning and selling now. He has a straightforward personality and won't lie.

Shen Huai didn't say much, but with a good eye, he could always stand on the right side, and he won a lot.

Song Xueyang was even more miserable. Since the first round of the Jumping Prophet won the victory, he must be taken away by the votes of all the members at dawn in every round. But two rounds.

"Captain, it's mainly you that affect the balance of this game too much."

"Yes, the game can be lost, but the Snow God must die!"

Song Xueyang struggled to resist, "I already found the clues last night, but I can't reveal my identity now, as long as everyone gives me a chance to let me survive this round, the guards will protect me tonight, and I will definitely take the next round with me. Everyone vote for the werewolf, if I vote wrong, don't have to wait for the next round, the witch poisoned me that night, I have no complaints."

Everyone hesitated, after all, if Song Xueyang was really a civilian, he would definitely be the most powerful helper.

Zhang Jiayan didn't think much of it at all, he remembered that Song Xueyang pitted him for splits, "Don't listen to him, vote to vote!"

Song Xueyang is out.

Flop: Werewolf.

Song Xueyang: "..."

The crowd cheered and Shen Huai was speechless. The effect of everyone blindly stalking Song Xueyang was really good. Not to mention that Song Xueyang got werewolf cards in three of the five rounds. Even if not, he could always lead the battle. It was confusing and confusing, and in a room full of clouds and fog, only he was like a mirror in his heart.

Liang Minghui laughed and said, "Snow God, if you don't die on the first night, there is a big problem. If I were a werewolf, if I opened my eyes on the first night and found out that you were not my accomplice, I would definitely kill you first."

In the end, Song Xueyang was targeted so badly that he ran to be the host.

Fan Jingming and Liang Minghui are more powerful. The two of them are veterans at first sight, and their speech is very logical. Speaking of professional terms, Zhang Jiayan is straight and confused, and it is impossible to tell who is right and who is wrong.

Liang Minghui is the main output of the WG team. He is careful and conscientious, and he takes care of many things in the team. In contrast, Jia Yunge seems to have a name and is a well-deserved "fake deputy".

Zhou Ning is very smart, learns things quickly, and is open to letting go. There is a feeling of getting better.

On the other hand, Hai Xing was completely muddying the water, not thinking at all. Whoever he voted for, he unexpectedly reached a united front with Zhang Jiayan. Because the two of them are really not a threat, even the werewolf kills them at the end, and they can often survive from the beginning to the end.

These two people are still unconscious, and they feel that it is amazing that they can live to the end.

Everyone had a great time playing all night, which led to the fact that everyone in Fengyue was not so resistant to being led by the teacher to practice yoga the next day.

In the next two days, they played games and ate together. They also visited the Hidden Dragon Hundred Waterfalls together. They took a group photo in front of the waterfalls. They gave birth to a strong brotherhood, and they were reluctant to part on the day they parted.

Especially Jia Yunge, especially reluctant to his cos partner Shen Huai, gave him the black peacock suit.

Zhang Jiayan said, "The photo you two took before has been repaired. Yunge wanted to post a photo of you two. I was afraid that you didn't want to be found, so I decided to post this photo with your back to the camera. How about it?"

Shen Huai glanced at it, and it was the one of them standing in the spring, Jia Yunge leaning on his shoulders, and he turned his head slightly.

After thinking about it, I nodded.

Jia Yunge was very happy and pressed "Thank you" several times in a row.

Zhang Jiayan said again, "Okay, the next time we meet is the playoffs, and I look forward to competing with you."

Song Xueyang held his hand, "Definitely."

Both sides are still a little unfinished about their return journeys, but they also understand that time is running out and the playoffs are just around the corner.

On the night that the Fengyue people arrived in Shanghai, Jia Yunge posted a photo of himself cos bird king Bai Chu on Weibo, and fans came to watch and lick the big guy's appearance.

Only one of the nine photos is a group photo of two people. In addition to Jia Yunge, who is fluttering in white clothes, there is also a man in a black sparrow's tail robe.

The man's makeup was more solemn and arrogant than Jia Yunge on the side, his brows were extremely thin, the corners of his eyes were slightly lowered, and he looked half-sideways as if he was staring at all beings. As he stood there, the gurgling water under his feet and the green mountains and green bamboos behind him seemed to be covered with a layer of ice and snow. The combination of handsome facial features and indifferent expression had a fascinating magic.

Jia Yunge has more cos fans than e-sports fans. After all, he rarely broadcasts or speaks, but cos pictures are often posted.

For the first time, fans saw other people in Jia Yunge's cos picture, all of them were so curious, they asked him if he had found a new partner, and even invited this handsome guy to join the cos group with his real name.

Jia Yunge was in a very good mood, picking up a few messages on the top and replying in a unified way-"It's a good friend."

When he said this, everyone became more curious.

The man in the photo is outstanding in appearance, has an excellent body proportion, and has a very good sense of camera. He doesn't look like a newcomer at all.

But they searched the cos circle and couldn't find this number of people. The post building looking for people was built so high, but no one knew it.

The heads of the cos regiments beat their chests and feet, and said that it is a pity that such a cosper with a good foundation and high talent cannot come to the cos world to show his talents.

As soon as Jia Yunge's Weibo was posted, the vice-captains of the WG team reported immediately, and the Maple Moon players who had a mutual friendship also came to like them. .

After returning to the team, it had been less than a month since the playoffs began, and Song Xueyang started intensive training with the devil. Everyone knows that the playoffs are not easy to play, so I train very seriously, and no matter how hard I work, I have no complaints.

After just three weeks, the results of the group draw for the playoffs, the National Finals of "City of Despair", came out.

Group A VS Group D (losers), Group B VS Group C.

The team members were very happy to receive this result. They successfully avoided Group A, which has two strong teams, Snapdragon and WG. According to the rules of group 1 VS group 2, their opponent in the first game of the playoffs is The old eight-strong team - Supper.

The strength level of the Supper team in previous years was about sixth, and the best result was fourth, because it always did something that violated the industry ethics, and its reputation was not very good.

But this year's is stronger than previous years, because just last year, Supper poached Sun Yuan, the only main mage of Maple Moon.
