Zhu long safely passed the play-ins, and as a first-team, they advanced to the round robin. Two teams from Korea, and one team from China, Europe, and North America were already invited, and then they would wait for three teams from minor regions to get there. One of them was Zhu long, the other would be decided later. They needed two wins and they would get in. And so would the other two, but their fight would be worse and the journey longer. And because they qualified it meant that they now had free time to do whatever they wanted.
Shan still had no messages from Lucy, Hwa or Hyun.
With their qualification secured, his teammates found themselves with some much-needed free time before their next matches. The pressure of the tournament had been momentarily lifted, allowing them a chance to relax and regroup.
