3 points!
Lu Li wondered if it was possible for Ruling Swords to win by 3 points against Drizzle Court .
It would be terrifying if Glory Capital was able to come back from this deficit .
Some people even thought that this was all according to Glory Capital's plan – losing the first match because they were unfamiliar with the map and losing another because they wanted to give the rookie some experience .
Whether that was true or not, the team match was still the deciding factor .
"Sigh, what should we do if Drizzle Court wins?" Square Root Three asked as he sat down next to Lu Li with a worried face
"What else can we do? We'll just have to face them," Lu Li said slowly . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
If we defeat Drizzle Court, then Water Fairy would be mad at you . Looks like someone's going to be single for the rest of his life . "
"If Drizzle Court can defeat Glory Capital then why are you so confident that we can defeat them?"

Lu Li was speechless . He wondered what had gotten into Square Root Three's head . Did he think that Ruling Sword was invincible?
"Oh yeah . . . " Square Root Three mumbled .
What was surprising was that Glory Capital did not use their home court advantage and chose a large, round open map .
Lu Li was confused; he could not understand what Glory Capital was doing . They were either trying to lose on purpose or they were incredibly confident . Another possibility was that Water Fairy bribed Sorrowless with an obscene amount of money .
They had the home court advantage but didn't utilize it . Instead, they chose an open round map which gave no strategic advantages whatsoever .
There were nine maps in total and besides the large round map, they all had their own unique features for teams to play around .
Drizzle Court had a team of Thief, Warlock, Mage and Priest, as well as a Paladin as backup .
Glory Capital had a team of Thief, Mage, Priest, Shaman, Warlock and also a Paladin as backup .
There was no need for the teams to study this map and execute a strategy . Instead, as soon as the match started, the two teams charged towards each other and began unleashing their skills .

Drizzle Court's Star Baby was being targeted . Since both teams had single target Priests, killing the healer was basically half of the way to victory . Drizzle Court also had the same strategy in mind . Cloth Armor classes were very squishy and relied heavily on their defensives .
"I think the two teams are just going to trade off their healers," Square Root Three said . He was even more nervous than Lu Li .
"This doesn't make any sense . "
Lu Li was trying to figure out what Glory Capital was up to .
"If they trade healers, then it's impossible for Glory Capital to win by 3 . They must have something up their sleeves that no one knows about, something that could help them avoid trading healers . Would it be a defensive? But what kind of defensive can allow a squishy healer to tank the DPS of four star players?
The truth was about to come out .
Lu Li was right about his speculations . When White Westhill reached critical HP, a white light began glowing around him, making him blurry and difficult to see .
Pain Suppression?

Lu Li knew about this overpowered Priest skill, but it could only be learnt at Lv60 .
Pain Suppression, Instant Cast . Reduces all damage taken by 50% for 5 seconds . Castable while stunned . Cooldown 3 minutes .
If his memory served him right, that was only the Lv1 effect . If it was maxed out, it would reduce damage taken by 80%, which was close to a 5 second invulnerability skill . Drizzle Court began panicking .
They realized that whatever defensives White Westhill was using, their damage was being significantly reduced .
White Westhill healed himself back to full HP after all the commotion .
Lu Li looked at Square Root Three and saw that his hands were shaking . The other players watching were probably reacting the same way . Priests used to be the squishy target that everyone bullied around, and now, they had become one of the most durable classes in the game because of that skill .
Star Baby also had defensives, but none of them could match up against Pain Suppression . Drizzle Court were about to come back and save their healer, but before they realized, it was already too late .
They still had a Paladin waiting outside, but the match was most likely over .
The final score was 6:1 . Drizzle Court lost by 5 points and was almost wiped completely . This sort of score in a team deathmatch was extremely rare, especially this late into the tournament .
One of the reasons for this was West Whitehill's Pain Suppression, which completely threw Drizzle Court off their game . Water Fairy also gave up when Star Baby died because she knew that there was no chance of coming back .
Drizzle Court had lost, but Ruling Sword could get revenge for them .
Glory Capital made it into the finals!
White Westhill was the real MVP of this match .
After the match, Ruling Sword immediately called for a team meeting .
They hadn't officially made the finals, but they were up by so much that it was impossible for Gale Legion to come back . Once Ruling Sword advanced, the championship will be decided between these two guilds .
Lu Li entered the room and everyone appeared quiet and demoralized .
Fat Monkey wasn't being his usual loud and annoying self; he simply played around with his hair and sat in the corner in silence . Moonlight, who was usually the cool and collected one, had a very bitter expression on his face .
If it was any other team with such an overpowered trump card, they wouldn't be as worried .
However, this was Glory Capital, the most powerful guild in the game . Not only that, but they now had one of the best defensive skills in the game .
