"You're really going in?" Kexin asked. "I thought you wanted to play first in the game with the Yin Yang Knights. That way, we'll finally have the opportunity to win against them."
Yiming clicked his tongue.
"I didn't call for a time out to give you guys an explanation. I'm going in—no questions asked."
Bocheng and Shilei looked down at the ground, feeling like they had failed as their teammates.
Somehow, they felt like today was going to be an easy game because they had already played against the Shizi Dogs and won with only minimal effort.
However, as much as they hated to say it, the Shizi Dogs had improved at such a tremendous pace, and they were having a hard time trying to suppress them.
"Concentrate," Yiming said. "This is a game that should only serve as our stepping stone into the finals."
With that, Yiming finally stepped onto the court, the atmosphere in the arena going wild.
