The Champions League Finals.

For the first time, South Korea made it to the final, facing off against the United States, which had consistently reached the finals in almost every Champions League.

Many people thought that the United States, with their superior strength, would once again claim victory. However, there was one variable.

-Is there no way to lift Seong Jihans bans just three times?

-We had bad luck in the previous games, its time for some good fortune.

-If Seong Jihan plays, we will definitely win!

Ranked 1st in player rankings, Seong Jihan was undeniably the core of the South Korean team, even though he had only played one game due to bans in the tournament. Everyone acknowledged that if he played, no matter how strong the US team was, they would lose 100%.

Therefore, BattleNet fans of all ages expected the US team to default to banning Seong Jihan.

But then

=Whats happening? Why arent they using the ban card on Seong Jihan?!

=What is the coach thinking? Isnt it basic to ban Seong Jihan in all 5 games?!

=Instead, they choose to ban two players in the top 10 freew ebnov el

=Oh, Seong Jihan isnt banned! Instead, its his teammate, the 2nd-ranked player in Korea, Sword King, whos banned.

=Coach, what on earth are you doing?

The US commentators raised their voices, criticizing the coachs incomprehensible decision.

-What? Why no ban?

-Wow, this is great LOL. Can we finally enjoy the 1st match without stress?

However, the joy of the Korean fans was short-lived.

-But it always seems a constellation descends whenever Seong Jihan isnt banned

-Right? Remember the Russia and Taiwan matches

-But we still won in the end. Those games were hilarious, haha.

-I cant relax until I see how the game unfolds.

When Seong Jihan wasnt banned, constellations would always pop up and drag the game in strange directions.

Nervously, everyone watched the games progress.

=The 1st match map is chosen as Lone Bridge!

=A map where two sides clash over a bridge. Given its short length, the warriors strength is most crucial and just when Seong Jihan wasnt banned!

=Truthfully, regardless of whether the map was short or large, facing Seong Jihan would always be difficult but this does not look good. Why would the coach let him free?

=Is there a hidden card up their sleeve against Seong Jihan?

=Lets hope so!

With Seong Jihans ban lifted and the map selection seemingly favoring Korea, the 1st game started off positively for Korea.

However, the national team players remained tense despite the situation.

They wouldnt just let Seong Jihan play without reason.

There must be something theyve prepared.

Another constellation perhaps?

Assuming the opponents choice had a reliable plan behind it.

Similarly, Seong Jihan thought,

Did Gilgamesh interfere somehow?

Thinking this, as soon as he was summoned to Lone Bridge, he prepared himself fully.

Not only did he gather all his strength, but

Sophia, can you give me a buff right now?

Of course!

With the divine buff from Sophia and his own strength at its peak, he looked across the bridge.

No need to approach, Ill annihilate them from afar.

Suspecting Gilgameshs scheme within the US camp, There was no reason to play into their hands.

The most crucial thing for Seong Jihan now was winning this game.

Though he said it was for humanity, he tried to brainwash, not convince me.

Constellation Gilgamesh.

He was fundamentally supportive of Seong Jihan, but it was more about treating him as a useful pawn in the long run rather than as a true ally.

Even if he was hostile to the Martial God, it didnt necessarily mean he was on their side.

I will go all out from the start.

Seong Jihan took out the Phoenix Flag and threw it into the sky.

The spear, mixing the power of fire and lightning, disappeared into the heavens and then,

Krrr!

Ripped a huge hole in the blue sky.

=Ah, is that Seongs Phoenix Spear?!

=It was so reliable in the Space League, but to be on the receiving end is terrifying!

=The hole seems bigger than before!

=But still, there must be a way to block it since he was not banned, right?!

Seen repeatedly through broadcasts, the Celestial Judgment, nicknamed Phoenix Spear abroad, was the most visually memorable skill of Seong Jihan.

Though everyone expected the massive fissure to soon unleash a lightning spear,

=Uh

=Flames are spreading in the sky?

Seong Jihans full-powered skill wasnt the Celestial Judgment.

Whoosh!

The edge of the huge circular hole pierced by the spear was engulfed in flames, and the sky filled with white flames in an instant.

Then, Crimson Thunder bloomed above it.

The concentrated thermal energy of the sun focused on the fissure.

Fundamental Martial Arts, Divine Dragon Decree Celestial Dragon Thunder Fire

The sky crumbled, bringing down intense flames like lightning bolts.

The target was the US teams camp.

No, to be precise, the entire terrain across the bridge.

=Is, is this Dragon Breath?

=Team USA! You have to block it!

The U.S commentators screamed, urging the national team to respond, but even if they were considered the strongest national team in the world, there was no way to stop the flames.

Flash!

The world across the bridge, which was instantly dyed in white light, was engulfed in flames.

Crimson Thunder streaked through, and then,

Whoosh!

The sturdy Lone Bridge that connected the two lands was also quickly engulfed in flames and turned to dust and vanished.

The Korean team across simply watched in awe.

Wow

The bridge is burning

Wasnt this bridge unbreakable no matter how hard you hit it?

Is the bridge the issue right now? Look at the land over there.

The ground itself has collapsed.

The cliff on the other side where the US team based their camp was already being erased by the white flames.

Everyone knew Seong Jihan was strong, but

Could the game terrain be eradicated like that?

What did you do, Uncle?

Yoon Seah, who was pulling her bowstring ready to fight vigorously with Sophias buff,

Stared dumbfounded at Seong Jihan as the enemy lines vanished before their eyes.

She had indeed grown mightily, facing accusations of cheating, But there was always someone flying above those running.

Seong Jihans power was growing leaps and bounds every time she saw him.

I just swept them away before they could do anything funny on that side.

Even against Team USA thats incredible.

Used my power to its fullest with a buff.

Celestial Dragon Thunder Fire,

Recalling the sensation of being hit by the First Breath of the Dragon Lord, this improved version of the Celestial Judgment was completed.

It had fulfilled all conditions except the last piece of the puzzle until now.

But,

Collecting videos in BattleNet was a help.

Collecting videos indiscriminately for the Heterogeneous Martial Resolve class,

There were experiences of dragons and their allied races embedded in those recordings.

After watching and feeling how they exerted their power Seong Jihan surpassed Celestial Judgment, eventually harnessing the Dragon Lords power.

The problem is that my stats are insufficient, so once I use it, my energy is depleted.

Celestial Dragon Thunder Fire relied on the enemys power as its core, leaving Seong Jihan energy-drained.

In the current state, hed need to avoid fights until his energy recuperated.

However,

The US team wasnt such a formidable foe.

[The enemy has been annihilated.]

[Match 1 has ended.]

With over half of the opponents cliff terrain deleted, there were no survivors left within it.

* * *

=Unbelievable

=What in the world is going on?!

=This is why you shouldnt have let Seong play!

The first game ended as soon as it began, leaving the U.S commentators in shock and criticizing the coachs decision for the first game.

However, that was just the beginning.

=Oh, come on, hes still not banning him, even after that?

=Is the coach out of his mind?!

=F***!! What the hell is going on?!

Entering the second game, the U.S coach still didnt ban Seong Jihan. A furious caster couldnt contain his anger and unleashed a string of curses.

-Are the U.S commentators crazy? Theyre cursing on a live broadcast, lol.

-Thats how frustrated they are, lol.

-But seriously, Seong Jihan is way too strong.

-Didnt that breath seem like a Dragons Breath?

-Yeah, it was even more powerful than a dragons.

-He deleted the game map, lol.

Seong Jihans Celestial Dragon Thunder Fire.

Witnessing its overwhelming power, Korean viewers were exhilarated, acknowledging Seong Jihans might.

And as Seong Jihan wasnt banned again for the 2nd match,

Some even speculated that this might be the moment they would witness Koreas first championship victory.

On the other hand,

=Why isnt the coach selecting the map?

=Did he just lose his mind? Why bother unbanning if hes going to waste the bans like this?

=Shouldnt the staff intervene? How can they just stand by and watch this?!

The U.S commentators erupted, suggesting that the staff should intervene, but the game proceeded as usual.

=Ah the game will continue as is. The map is South Gate.

=Oh no! South Gate! If Seong Jihan uses his breath attack on this map, its game over!

=He should have at least chosen the map wisely. This is insane! What are they even doing?!

The second match proceeded unchanged. With Seong Jihan still in play and the advantageous map of South Gate, it seemed like the US national team had given up on the game altogether.

-Why is the U.S team acting like this?

-Are they trying to hand the victory to Korea?

-Well well gladly accept it ^^

Though the Korean viewers couldnt understand English, the sentiment of gratitude was predominant.

-F***! Even a seven-year-old kid could manage bans and map selects better than this!!

-My seven-year-old son is throwing a fit at home. Hes crying, asking why Seong Jihan isnt banned and why they didnt select the Mage map!

-Lets send that kid to be the coach.

-That would be better. What a mess is this?

The U.S viewers were in chaos, flooding the chat with curses and complaints.

The outcome of the second game was as expected by everyone.

=Aaargh!!

=South Gate is crumbling!

=Another breath erupted! The entire castle is disappearing

=Heh haha! The U.S is going to lose 3-0 for the first time in the finals.

The U.S commentators screamed in agony, and the second game was just as one-sided as the first. When Seong Jihan threw his spear into the sky, it descended like a dragons breath. The fortress vanished into dust along with the US national team. The Korean team had already taken a 2-0 lead in the finals.

Now, if they just get one more win, the championship is within reach.

=What on earth is going on?!

=Why didnt they select maps for the first and second matches?! Does U.S think theyre the World Tree Elves?

=Uh huh? The third match. Is he finally going to ban Seong Jihan?

= The Coach. Has he finally come to his senses?!

=W-well, as long as he bans Seong Jihan, theres a chance!

From the third match onwards, the US national teams strategy was back on track. They banned the overwhelmingly powerful player, Seong Jihan, employing a strategy known even to a seven-year-old: competing among human players without Seong Jihans domination.

=But why isnt he selecting the map?

=Its okay! At least he banned Seong Jihan!

=Hmm Is he saving their map selecting card for the 5th match, thinking theyre World Tree Elves?

=Well, who knows! I dont understand why hes doing this, but

As they entered the third match, the US national team showed a completely different side compared to the first two matches. The match was completely dominated by the US from start to finish.

=T-the United States. They win!

=It starts from the third match. They just need to turn things around now!

=If Seong Jihan is banned again in the 4th match Itll come down to a 50% chance in the 5th match!

And the 4th match proceeded as the US commentators hoped.

Seong Jihan was banned, and the US team overpowered Team Korea.

Continuing their momentum from the 3rd match , the 4th match was also a crushing victory for the US.

-US is damn strong

-I guess its tough without Seong Jihan

-True, getting here was a miracle.

-Sword Kings movement in the 4th match was disappointing he played too aggressively

-Ah, so it comes down to the 5th match. Its all about luck now?

-Will the final game be decided by mere chance?

With the score tied at 2-2, Korea and the US entered the final game. People naturally expected Seong Jihan to be banned again at this point.

But

=Coach!! Why! Why arent you banning him again?!

=Have you really lost your mind?!

To everyones surprise, the US coach didnt ban Seong Jihan at the last moment.

Whats going on?

Why would he do that, seriously?

Even the Korean national team players couldnt understand the opponents strategy.

Just as people were scratching their heads in confusion free(w)ebnov(e)l

=Oh, but wait, Look at the coach. Suddenly, hes gathering the select cards to designate a map

=Its like he was waiting to choose the map!

=The map name is Tuseong

The US coach decisively chose the game map Tuseong.
