With the arrival of the two teams, fans shouted and waved banners in the air.
You'd think it was the finals by the way the stands filled up, but it wasn't. It was the semi-finals—the Juren Champions versus the Ying Eagles.

"Wow, guys, we're already trending! The stream's blowing up," Gina said, glancing at David, who nodded while scrolling through the messages pouring in.
