finals

"Forgive? Forgive what? We have no relationship anymore, so where does talk of forgiveness come from?"

Zhang Lan shook her head, a faint smile appearing at the corner of her lips.

"Then you are still holding a grudge against us."

Xu Lei returned to her aggrieved expression once again.

Wu Jie and Li Xiaoxiao, sitting to the side, could no longer sit still and spoke up one after another.

"Sister Lan, you have to help us! Ever since we joined Xinghua Entertainment, we haven't been able to create a single good song. Now, Xinghua Entertainment has already spoken up—if we can't create a good song, we'll be shelved."

"If we get shelved, our lives will be ruined."

Listening to Wu Jie and Li Xiaoxiao's words, Zhang Lan was stunned. She hadn't expected that after the three of them joined the Entertainment Company, they would be doing so poorly.

She carefully examined their condition and realized they were indeed much more haggard than before.

"I have no way to help you?"

Zhang Lan shook her head slightly.

"How is there no way? You just need to have Little Vault write another song and give it to us, and this problem will be solved. Lanlan, don't worry, as long as we resolve the crisis of being shelved, we'll give you 70% of the song's revenue."

Xu Lei quickly interjected from the side.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lan turned her head to look at Xu Lei and blinked.

After a long while, she spoke slowly.

"Do I look stupid to you?"

She had almost been laughed to anger by Xu Lei's words just now. I give you a song, help you resolve your crisis, and in the end, I only get 70% of the revenue?

If there's a song, can't I just sing it myself?

"Lanlan, I didn't mean you're stupid. Aren't we friends? Just consider it helping us out, okay?"

Xu Lei pleaded in a low voice.

Seeing this, Zhang Lan shook her head.

"Friends? The moment you left the studio, we were no longer friends. Also, I am well aware of the things you did to target me. I didn't come here today to discuss business with you."

"I just wanted to tell you not to bother me anymore in the future."

"Everyone must be responsible for their own choices. Goodbye!"

Having said that, Zhang Lan stood up and walked out of the coffee shop.

She hadn't wanted to come, but the other party kept calling her repeatedly. Even after she blocked them, they would use other numbers to call her.

It made her impatient, so she had no choice but to come over.

Leaving the coffee shop, she headed straight towards the Mingri Group. Just yesterday, after finishing her song at the esports event, she had inexplicably trended on the hot search.

Today, she had received calls for good business opportunities, wanting to invite her to perform. She needed to handle them properly.

… Two days later, at 6:00 PM. Jiangcheng Stadium.

Today is the final day of the Extreme Survival finals.

Once today's match ends, the champion of the first official Extreme Survival tournament will be born.

Following the pre-match hype and livestreams over the previous two days, the match venue today was buzzing with noise; every seat in the entire Jiangcheng Stadium was filled.

On stage, all the participating players were ready, and the large screen at the top switched to the commentary booth.

[Welcome to the third day of the Extreme Survival official tournament finals.]

[I am the commentator Zhou Yan.]

[I am the commentator Xinba.]

[After two days of competition, the AB and AC Groups have finished their matches. Today is the match for the BC Groups. According to the current total points leaderboard, the top three teams are ENT, TA, and WY. However, these three teams have already finished their two matches. Whether they can maintain their rankings depends on the performance of the two BC teams today.]

[That's right, who will ultimately win the championship for this tournament remains unknown for now. Everyone can participate in the guessing game in the official tournament Livestream room. Those who guess correctly can win a small gift figurine prepared by the official tournament.]

[As everyone can see, these are the figurines on the table; each one is very cute and adorable.]

Zhou Yan picked up a figurine and displayed it in front of the camera.

[That's right, I've already made my guess. If I don't win one, I'm already prepared to go to the official website to buy them. Having this row of small figurines on my desk looks quite nice.]

[Mm, the director has sent word that all players are ready, and the match is about to begin. However, before watching the match, let's take a sip of Nanhe Coffee to refresh ourselves so we don't miss a single detail of the match.]

As the host finished speaking, the screen switched to the game footage.

[This flight path is near the Training Base. So, how will the clubs that jump in the upper area choose? Will they choose to find vehicles to head to their jump points, or will they choose to fight other teams for the jump points?]

[Mm, the CCC Team has directly chosen to jump at the Training Base. This Training Base has always been the FM Team's jump point. This is going to be interesting.]

[The CCC Team has been fighting the TB Team for the A City jump point since the first day of the competition. By the fourth match, the TB Team finally gave up on the A City jump point and chose other locations, which is why there was no "landing and gunfighting" situation.]

[I didn't expect that in the first match of the third day, the CCC Team would choose to contest a point. The CCC Team's strength is decent; they are currently ranked 20th on the leaderboard. After all, in the first day's matches, the CCC Team was landing and gunfighting for the first four matches, which led to team losses and put them at a great disadvantage in subsequent matches.]

[They've already started fighting. Two members of the CCC Team went down instantly. The FM Team members have already taken their positions and have the CCC Team completely pinned down.]

[The CCC Team is at a disadvantage this time. The FM Team truly lives up to being the overlords of the Training Base; they are extremely familiar with its terrain.]

[Wow, what's happening? Ling Dang Team, the director is showing the footage.]

[This is too outrageous! Iron sight 98K, isn't that distance at least 400 meters? If this weren't a tournament, I'd think they were cheating.]

[…]

Jiangcheng Stadium, in a lounge backstage, Yao Beiguo and Tao Ze watched the screen showing the Ling Dang member using the iron sight, and their eyes lit up once again.

"Tao Ze, this Ling Dang is pretty good."

Yao Beiguo turned to look at Tao Ze beside him.

Since the finals began, they had been observing every match. Of course, they weren't observing the playstyles of every team, but rather the performance of those three amateur teams.

After all, their BL gaming team still needed a decent professional team for the Extreme Survival game.

They needed to find some skilled players among these amateur teams to recruit into their own team.

"Indeed, they are good. Their reaction speed and judgment of the battlefield situation are both very on point."

Tao Ze nodded.

"We can make contact and see if we can recruit them to our club."
