《Glory e-sports》 Chapter 1: Me and you originally had no fate, we only met because I spent money // Long Qi Main Characters: Wei Xiao (Quiet), Lu Feng (Close) Ao~ Dawn was just breaking when a black and white husky jumped up onto the bed. The feeling of having a forty to fifty pound large dog jumping on the bed was something that people had to experience themselves to understand! Wei Xiao was trampled by the husky and let out a grunt. He even started to have thoughts of murder. Down! The dog had long been used to its masters bad temper when he got out of bed, and used its claws to dig him out. Wei Xiaos black hair that was spread messily beneath the quilt was revealed, followed by his pale cheeks, the black circles under his eyes from staying up late, and the murderous aura hovering over his entire body. The dog was completely oblivious as it butted against him with its head. Wei Xiaos neck was itchy from the scratchy fur, How did Laozi raise up a doggy thing like you?! The real doggy thing whined and kicked up a fuss, wanting to go outside. Wei Xiao pummeled the dog on the head in anger, but he unfortunately couldnt bear to use any real strength. The husky thought that its owner was teasing it and panted as it got even closer with its tongue. Wei Xiao couldnt take it anymore, lifted up the quilt, and got out of bed. He was only wearing a pair of shorts, his exposing legs that were both long and straight. His figure was thin but not frail, and because he was young, it was full of a youthful teenage vigor. I only slept for three hours. Soybean, you better be quick. He casually pulled on a pair of pants, tugged on a sweater, and picked up the leash, holding down the restless dog and leashing it carefully before taking it outside. This was the one disadvantage of raising a dog. They had to be taken out early in the morning so that they could solve their physiological problems, which was exceedingly unkind for someone like Wei Xiao who had his days and nights flipped upside down. The cold wind blew straight towards his neck as soon as he went out, and Wei Xiao was so chilled that his sleepiness disappeared completely. The urge in his heart to stew a dog kept increasing. Were huskies tasty? Soybean sensed its owners love and let its tongue loll out as it wagged its tail. Wei Xiao gave up on the idea. This dog couldnt be stewed. Eating it would reduce his intelligence! He was bored and took out his phone to idle away the time while the dog dealt with its physiological problems. It was freezing outside, and he hid both of his hands in his sleeves. Only the index finger of his right hand peeked out to draw on the screen. Hed fallen asleep as soon as he hit the bed last night and hadnt logged out of his accompanied gaming platform account. At this time, his account had received a lot of messages. 200 a game? One game is half an hour, 400 yuan an hour? Why dont you just go rob a bank?! Look at the market price, okay, other accompanied players only charge 15 yuan a game! What makes you worth such a high price! Wei Xiao was an accompanying player for hire. What was an accompanying player? It was having a boss pay you to accompany them, chat with them, and help them increase their ranking, the full set. It could also be considered an offshoot of the gaming industry, except that the money that could be made was rather small, where one match was only ten or so yuan. Anyone with a little more ambition had already gone off to be a live streamer. Wei Xiaos lips curved slightly. Even if he was only poking at the keyboard with a single finger, it didnt affect the speed of his typing. Hed already finished replying in the blink of an eye. Im the king of the jungle, king of mages, a king who can do it all. You wont be making a loss at 200 yuan, and you cant get scammed at this price! It doesnt need to take half an hour. If boss is in a hurry, I can blow up the other sides dog head in ten minutes. Why is it so expensive? I dont know either, perhaps its because Im handsome? The messages had been sent out at three or four oclock in the morning. It had been over two hours since then, and nobody would be there to reply. Even so, Wei Xiao was an accompanying player who was dedicated to good service and worked hard. Messages from bosses naturally needed to be answered carefully. The husky whined slightly, and Wei Xiao suppressed the urge to kill the dog and dealt with the follow up. The dog still wanted to go out to the park and play, but Wei Xiao had already been pushed to his limits and dragged it back to the apartment instead. The youth who didnt exercise at all and would lay down if he didnt have to sit relied completely on the exercise involved in having to drag the dog around in order to work out his biceps! After returning home with much difficulty and closing the security gate behind him, there was no trace of sleepiness left in Wei Xiao. He took off his clothes and went to take a shower. After coming back out, he went to the refrigerator to pick up a piece of bread and pour out some dog food for Soybean, Ah, you, youre more expensive to raise than your dad! The son of a dog chuffed as it ate happily. Wei Xiao: In this world, people were really inferior to dogs. Wei Xiao finished off the cold piece of bread and sat down in front of the computer. It was better to play games than sleepCCan internet addicts vocabulary was filled with this phrase. There was only one icon on the empty computer screen desktop. A small little icon of a soldiers back shrouded by a ray of sacred light, the image solemn and resolute, with one word written beneath itCCGlory. A multiplayer online competitive game that had been popular for over a decade and was still at the peak of online gaming. Wei Xiao logged into the game, and the first thing to pop up was a video. The video title was extremely eye-catchingCC Congratulations to Close (Lu Feng) for winning the 2020 World Championship! Four consecutive championships! Close fully deserved the title of being the first in the world! The video clip was taken from the game. A thief whose game operations were at the ultimate peak used a backstab at critical health to counterattack and take down the opponent. After that, the screen cut away from the game. Beneath the bright stage lights was a man wearing a black team uniform. He was tall, his eyes and eyebrows cold. He was clearly holding a trophy that represented the highest glory and standing there on the supreme stage, enjoying the applause and praise of thousands, but his face was expressionless. This handsome face that had been praised up to the heavens by the fans didnt even show the tiniest outflow of emotion. The video came with its own scrolling comments. [ Close is amazing! Close is legendary! Close is the end to everything! ] [ God Lu won the championship again and again and again! Hes really too damned strong! ] [ Number one in China, Number one in the world, winning honor for the country, goddamn! ] [ Stop overpraising, alright? Isnt it shameful, isnt it embarrassing? Is an individual competition championship even considered a real champion? ] [ Haha, only Close is amazing out of the whole of China. If he really has the ability, then he should take his team to the global finals and win a real championship! ] [ Leaving now, leaving now, the fans are going to start hating again, saying that their God Lu cant carry so many people, and that theres no way to win nine against one. In any case, its always his teammates that suck, and the Chinese competition zone that sucks, and only Close himself is good! ] The scrolling comments were packed densely enough to block out the man in the video completely. Wei Xiao tsked, his long and slender fingers moving over the keyboard. The sounds from the mechanical keyboard werent loud, but words came out pouring out like a flood. [ Close made his debut in FTW at the age of 17 and won the first world championship for the team competition; at 18, he took on a difficult task at a critical time and led FTW to become the only team from China to leave the Asian competition zone and enter the global team competitions. In the eight to four semi-finals, Close took his thief and showed off until the previous champion seses scalp was numb, and in the second match, Close used a death knight to salvage the situation and turn the tide. In the third match ] He quickly and fluently wrote out hundreds of words, and because the number of words for each message was limited in the scrolling comments, he sent them in sections and filled up the screen skillfully and professionally, making even Closes senior, hardcore fans feel inferior. The haters still wanted to hate, but unfortunately, they couldnt keep up with Wei Xiaos typing speed. Secondly, their historical knowledge wasnt as rich as Wei Xiaos, and they received ten sentences back for every one sentence they sent out. The haters only felt that there were millions of people sitting on the other side, each holding a machine gun and bombarding them until their scalps turned numb. After purifying the scrolling comments, Wei Xiao happily closed the video and started to queue up for ranked matches. was a typical tower pushing game. There were ten players split into two teams, and blowing up the other sides home base signified the end of the match. As a 5v5 game, it was reasonable to say that it was only a team game competition. However, because Glory specifically tested a players operation and consciousness as well as the way an individual used their professions talent points, equipment, and so on, there were also single and double competitions. Taking the global competition as an example, the prize for the individual (single) championship was 2 million USD, the doubles championship prize was 3 million USD, and the team competition championships prize could go as high as 30 million USD. Based on the amount of money, it could be seen that the team competition was the real motherload. It was a pity that China hadnt even managed to enter the global finals during the past two years, let alone win the championship. Only Close, as a god-level player from China, had won three consecutive championships in the global singles. China always liked to say that he had won four consecutive championship titles because his first championship had been in the team competition. It was a world championship that not only belonged to Close, but also belonged to the entire FTW team and the entire China competition zone! However, three years had already passed China hadnt won another global team competition championship cup. Wei Xiao was queued into a match and entered the character selection screen. His mind was full of the thief that Lu Feng used in the video, and he selected it without thinking twice. Someone immediately spoke up on the team communication channel. Little big brother, dont toy with me. Thieves are so weak these days. Other than God Lu, who else can show off with it? Dont get overexcited from watching a video. Your thief and Closes thief are like two completely different creatures. Wake up, brother, were not professional players! Wei Xiao typed out a few words on his keyboard, Lie down well. The team channel was silent for three seconds before someone began to chantCC The cows are flying The people on the ground are blowing. Acting like the wind Blowing until their face hurts. Wei Xiao moved his fingers and knocked out another line of words, Dont worry. Ive won against Close before with a thief. Won against God Lu? Why dont you say that youve saved the galaxy! Four people who had never met each other across the internet all spoke at the same time, Brother, can you be a little less shameless?! Twenty minutes later, the expressions of these four people were fantastical, and the style of the conversation in the team channel suddenly changedCC Little big brother, ah, no, big god, are you lacking in leg accessories? The kind that will lie down to rank up and wont chatter and talk crap. Big god, are you short on supports? I can play druid, shaman, or priest, and guarantee that your health doesnt drop at all so that you can kill as you like. F*ck me, this kind of battle achievement, this isnt Closes alt, right!? Wei Xiao took the opportunity to advertise: Memeda accompanying player ID7758521. Waiting for bosses to place their orders~ The four teammates: ???? This godly, amazing thief was actually an accompanying player? An accompanying player with a sky-high, amazing price. Theyd originally wanted to make an appointment, but when they saw the high price of 200 yuan a game, they silently said goodbye. What the hell was this, 200 a game?! Why didnt he just go up to heaven! After playing a match, Wei Xiao was a little sleepy again. He couldnt help it; there was no suspense in the entire process of crushing his opponents and playing just made him sleepy. Wei Xiao shut the dog outside of his room and was about to go back to sleep when his cell phone beeped. Oh, hed forgotten to log out of his platform account. Had someone else left a message? Wei Xiao casually swiped it open and found that someone had placed an order for him. Was there really someone who would place an order for him for 200 yuan a game other than those beasts in the professional league? Wei Xiao looked at it intently and fell into a daze. Customer LU has ordered 10,000 games. Would you like to accept the order~ 10,000 games? Wei Xiao rubbed his eyes, counting carefully, then counting again. There were four zeroes. It was indeed ten thousand games. 200 yuan a game. The 2 million yuan was shiny and dazzling. Juurensha: I see Close is using his prize money well. xiin: oookay, so i fell into another pit no regrets! this novel is super fun, super hilarious, and super sweet. its about competitive e-sports, but dont let that scare you away!! the novel will explain the gaming system, but any beginner gamer reader will be able to understand (for parts that might be confusing, ill try to add footnotes even though i hate them or if not, ask in the comments!) and its generally like any modern MOBA game. the other thing i wanted to say theres a lot of fun slang in this novel. some of it translates well into english, and some might be weird. ive tried to add footnotes where things might need explanations but sometimes theyre obscure and i might be wrong or unclear. feel free to ask! or tell me im wrong! i wont mind~ in any case, enjoy! Chapter 2: Two hundred per game, accompanying you until dawn The other party was still online. Wei Xiao sent them a private message, Boss, did you accidentally input another zero? To be really honest, Wei Xiao himself was dazzled by the neat and tidy row of six zeroes. The other party replied back very quickly, treating words like gold, No. Wei Xiaos mind was filled with incredulity, You want me to accompany you for ten thousand games? LU: Mm. Wei Xiao: He put down his cell phone, stood up, and opened the doorCC Soybean pounced on him with a whine. Wei Xiao caught its head, then rubbed and kneaded it until the dogs fur stuck out in all directions. Wei Xiao: Yep, its not a dream. Soybean: Ao? Wei Xiao tossed aside the silly husky and closed the door with a bang. His cold and ruthless manner was just like that of a scum man who would refuse to acknowledge knowing the other party as soon as he was done with them. Soybean, whose doggy nose bumped against the door: Arooarooaroo? He wasnt dreaming. It was real. There was really a silly fool, ah, no, it was a boss whod spent two million to play ten thousand games with him! F*ck! Wei Xiao calmed down and felt a stab of pain. The platform charged a 10% handling fee. Hadnt he just lost 200,000 yuan in the blink of an eye?! A full two hundred thousand yuan! It cost 28 yuan for a skin. That was enough to buy 7142 of them! Wei Xiao bore with the pain that cut into his skin and asked, So, may I ask if Ive played with you before? Wei Xiao had been an accompanying player for such a long time, but hed never used such a warm tone with his customers before. If any of his previous customers heard this, there was a 80% chance that they would vomit out three liters of blood. LU: No. Wei Xiao: You bought so many games with me all at once without having played together with me before? LU: Mm. Wei Xiaos face was full of confusion. What did Mm mean? There were a lot of hidden meanings behind this word. He asked patiently, Arent you afraid Ill trick you? LU: No. What if my skills suck? You can do it. You believe me just like that? Mm. Wei Xiaos face was mystified. He asked the question that was in his heart, Why? Lu: Mm? Wei Xiao: I mean, why did you choose me? The other party paused for a moment, then gave a reason that caused Wei Xiao to lose control over his expression, Because youre expensive. Wei Xiao: What? This Mister LU was as calm as before, You get what you pay for. Wei Xiao was lost for three seconds, then asked, Arent you worried that the price wont match the goods? LU didnt type words this time. Instead, he sent him a screenshot of Wei Xiaos self-introductionCC King of the jungle, king of mages, a king who can do it all. You wont be making a loss, and you cant get scammed at this price!! Wei Xiao: It had never, ever occurred to him that God Wei, who could tear apart the haters on the internet and suppress the haters in the game, would one day be left speechless and unable to answer. Then Wei Xiao asked tentatively, Lets play a match? LU: No rush. Eh? Youre not in a hurry to play after spending two million yuan to find an accompanying player? Wei Xiao: When will Boss be free? LU: 1:30 PM. Wei Xiao looked at the time. It was now seven oclock, so he could still sleep for another six hours. Great. See you at 1:30. LU: OK. After exiting the chat interface, Wei Xiao held his cellphone in his hand and spaced out for a while. Sleeping could go to hell! How could he sleep when something so big had happened?! Wei Xiao tabbed out of the accompanying gaming platform, opened up WeChat, held down the voice key, and started to speak quickly, Goddamn, Old Bai, I was just sitting at home and money fell down from the sky! I dont know which little cutie used two million to buy ten thousand matches with me! And they placed the order directly on the platform, with no hesitation, no delay, no trial game, directly hitting me in the face with two million. I really never thought that this would happen to me one day. So it turns out that being a sugar baby feels like this! I dont want to fight anymore, I just want to accompany this boss for a lifetime. Oh, do you think Ill get lucky and really meet a cute girl? Hey, theres nothing else to say, Im going to propose! Old Bais surname was Bai, his name Cai, and his nickname was Brother Cai. Bai Cai and Wei Xiao had known each other for a long time. The two of them had a relationship at the level where they had shared upper and lower bunk beds as early as when the two of them were in the youth training camp. Two years later, Wei Xiao, who was once the king of rookies was now an accompanying player who couldnt go up on stage, and Bai Cai, who had been the king of rookies exclusive support had leapt up into the first-line team FTW and become a teammate of the Great Demon King Lu Feng, the four-time world champion. This difference between heaven and earth was really enough to make people sigh in regret. However, Brother Cai didnt want to laugh over it. He just wanted to shushCC F*ck, he was about to pee his pants from fear! Its Wei Xiao? This deep voice, which fans firmly believed could make them pregnant just by hearing it, rang out by Bai Cais side He wasnt pregnant, but he was soon about to miscarry!!! Ye, yes. Bai Cai looked at this thirty second long voice message and prayed sincerely: Old Wei, youd better not have spouted any nonsense! Lu Feng: What did he say. Bai Cai: This Lu Fengs eyelids lifted slightly, Inconvenient? Bai Cai gave a start. His hand moved faster than his brain and had already clicked open the voice messageCC Goddamn, Old Bai little cutie sugar baby for a lifetime cute girl Im going to propose! Bai Cai: What was the point in praying, he just needed to think for a moment to know that this beast who never censored his mouth would never say anything normal! He even used little cutie, cute girl, and going to propose, Wei Xiao, youre a reincarnated firework, right? You want to go up to heaven every day! Old Bai thought about how he still had a bit of a revolutionary friendship with this guy and prepared to save him a little, About that He fell into a daze even before he finished speaking. What the hell? F*ck! Close smiled! The Great Demon King smiled! The man who was expressionless on the stage of the finals when he won the world championship cup was actually smiling! It wasnt that obvious of a smile, and only the corners of his mouth were raised. The smile was very light, but it still managed to touch that pair of deep black eyes. Bai Cai felt a stab of pain. If he took a photo of this, Lu Fengs wife fans, madame fans, girlfriend fans, might make him an income of a hundred million! What a pity, he only had the brain to make money, but not the guts to actually do it. Not replying? Lu Feng asked him. Bai Cai put away his evil thoughts and hurriedly said, No, if I reply to him at this time, I might end up beating the grass and scaring the snake. Seven oclock in the morning for e-sports players was the same as two or three oclock in the morning for ordinary people. It would be suspicious if they werent still sleeping at this time. Lu Feng thought about it, True, let him sleep. Bai Cai: Was it because he wrote too many short stories? How come he always felt that things were a little weird?! Lu Feng didnt say anything further and turned to go upstairs. Bai Cai let out a huge sigh of relief and collapsed like a rag in his chair. Sorry, ah, Old Wei, its not that your brother sold you out, its really an unexpected event after unexpected event, its all accidental! Fine, he admitted that he was a little bit in the wrong. He really shouldnt have been pimping in the training base. This matter had to be explained from last nightCC A new team member had joined FTW this year, a rebellious youth named Ning Zhehan who had dyed his hair granny grey. He was a mid-lane player. had already accumulated over ten years of experience in e-sports and had long developed a mature training system for its professional players. The most authoritative training system was the youth training camp that was jointly established by the various clubs. It would hold trials every off-season; two years ago, Wei Xiao had been the rookie king. This year, it was Ning Zhehan. This kid had some skills. He looked rash and impulsive, but in fact, he had a stable play style and could advance and retreat when needed. He could switch freely between mage assassins and fortress gunners, and had a strong level of adaptability. As soon as the youth training camp ended, the teams would all start to fight over the newcomers, and FTW ultimately signed him at a sky-high price of 3 million. A rookie going for such a high price was enough to prove how good he was. Ning Zhehan was an eighteen year old youth. Having been praised and complimented in such a way, it was inevitable that he would become overconfident. When he came to FTW, he really believed that he could win glory for his country and come back with the world championship cup. Yet as a result, two days after joining the team, Ning Zhehan became dispirited and passive. In nine training games, he was an existence that totally dragged everyone back. He couldnt keep up with the rhythm, and his game consciousness was poor. Even the technique and skill that he was most proud of was so vulnerable it couldnt stand up to a single blow against the four-time champion Great Demon King. How could there be such a powerful person? How could there be an existence that went against the heavens like this? They both had two hands. How could the gap be so big! Ning Zhehans granny gray hair lost its luster, and he was really about to become an old granny. Bai Cai had seen it all before. Over the years, how many talented players had flung themselves over to join FTW and then gone off into seclusion after being beaten flat? It wasnt that he was exaggerating, but God Lu hadnt even been trying his best. If he really let himself go, perhaps only the big guys at the top of the League would be able to keep up with his rhythm. Oh and the Wei Xiao from two years ago. Unfortunately, that beast didnt play in the professional circles. In any case, Ning Zhehan couldnt do it. Dont judge based on how both of them were rookie kings. These years, Bai Cai had developed a psychological shadow towards rookie kings. Although it was a bit miserable for an eighteen year old youth to go into seclusion, he didnt want to go comfort him and acted as though he hadnt seen anything. Who couldve known that even though he ignored him, this child would take the initiative to come find him? Brother Cai, I heard that His words were faltering, and he was extremely awkward. Bai Cai understood as soon as he heard this, but he deliberately pretended not to understand, Hm? What did you hear? Ning Zhehan hesitated to speak. Bai Cai patted him on the shoulder and said, Dont think too much about it. Its just a few training games, its fine to lose. But the problem was that theyd lost because of him. Ning Zhehans face turned white. Bai Cai was still smiling broadly, seemingly unaware of how distressing his words were. Ning Zhehan bit down on his lower lip and steeled himself to say, I heard that you know a god-level training partner. Its not that extreme. Bai Cai waved his hand, Hes an accompanying player, not some god-level anything. Ning Zhehan was very serious, But hes defeated 90% of the professional players in the League. Even the vice-captain of the TPT team is one of his defeated opponents! Bai Cai muttered, About that Ning Zhehan was no longer as awkward now that hed said it out loud. He even seemed to yearn for it, I heard about his legend when I was in the youth training campCCnobody knows his name, and nobody has seen him before. Nobody knows his real identity, but everyone knows that hes a behind-the-scenes powerful player in the China competition zone. Countless players have grown and improved under his hands, and countless vice-captain and even team captains figured out their play styles after experiencing his tempering Bai Cais teeth ached when he heard this. Although it was true, once he thought about how all of this was about that boy Wei Xiao He didnt deserve it! Ning Zhehan spoke firmly, Brother Cai, can you contact him for me? I want to grow! Bai Cai thought to himself: I think you want to inflict self-harm on yourself! Hes really just an accompanying player. Bai Cai sighed and stressed, One who takes money to play with you. Ning Zhehan: Eh? Bai Cai hadnt repeated the fact that he was an accompanying player for nothing. He was really trying to say the key point, Two hundred per game, accompanying you until dawn. Ning Zhehan: juurensha: Matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match, Brother Cai! xiin: read the latest chapter and couldnt resist updating releases will be sporadic (aka as fast as i can TL and my wonderful editors can edit) until we settle into a schedule~ Chapter 3: Kiss kiss me, I love you Ning Zhehans heated blood cooled down a lot. There were many legends about the god level accompanying player, about how he was the One Lamp Grandmaster of the e-sports world, a godly player whod broken through the professional player world, and how winning him was the same as winning against the Great Demon King There was no mention of money in the legends. However, from another perspective, an accompanying player was good too, or even a trainer. They all needed to be able to feed themselves, and charging a fee was normal! Ning Zhehans awe of the grandmaster became a little more personal and cordial, Thats fine! It was good to have the bill settled for goods that were delivered. Nobody would owe anyone! Bai Cai: 200 a match refers to solo (1v1). Ning Zhehan: Of course! Professional players sought out One Lamp Grandmaster in order to hone their personal strength. There were more things that needed to be considered in team competitions, but the Grandmaster was only one person. There was no way for him to do those. Bai Cai smiled slightly, Okay. Ill contact him for you. At this time, Ning Zhehan only felt that Brother Cai was smiling like an old fox, but he hadnt yet realized how much his wallet would suffer. After the first game Ning Zhehan was baffled, This, this is so He couldnt even use any strong words. This was simply too abnormal! A 1v1 confrontation was different from 5v5. After the game began, both players would enter a long map, each guarding their own resurrection crystal, and start fighting as soon as they left their base. In common solo matches, the players would give each other a little opportunity to develop, build up their talent points and equipment, and wait until they reached over level 10 before fighting. Ning Zhehan was already mutilated by level 1, and was forced to return to the resurrection crystal by level 2. By level 4 Game over. In just five short minutes, Ning Zhehan, who stood out amongst countless players, a newcomer whod been signed into the top team FTW with a contract worth 3 million, had been hammered into a melon peel! Again! Ning Zhehan didnt think twice before clicking to return to the game room. Bai Cai was very calm, Pay first? Ning Zhehan took out his cell phone, Ill transfer it to you. Bai Cai: Kay. There was a ding as one thousand yuan entered the account. One hour later Ning Zhehan was sweating profusely, and his head of granny grey hair was sticking out everywhere. Five minutes a game, for a full twelve games. Not only had he not won, he hadnt even killed the other party once! For an entire hour, hed been toyed with until his scalp was numb. What made him doubt life even more was that hed chosen all of the mid-lane heroes he was good at, and the other side had used the same heroes as him. Hed been defeated by the very heroes he was proudest of being good at! A, again Ning Zhehans hands were starting to shake. Bai Cai reminded him kindly, Youve already spent 2400, hey. Two hundred a game, five minutes per game. One hour was 2400. Ning Zhehan was stunned for a moment. He suddenly thought of the sentence Bai Cai had said before. Two hundred per game, accompanying you until dawn. Hed scoffed at the time, thinking that it was just two hundred yuan. Now F*ck, was this highway robbery?! Bai Cai counselled him, Dont be in a hurry and take your time, for tonight, first Teenagers hated hearing these kinds of words the most, Again! Ill transfer you five thousand! Kay. Bai Cai clicked to accept the money and transferred it to Wei Xiao at a thirty-seventy split. At the same time, he also cursed, Cant you f*cking hold back a little? This is a child that God Lu looks favorably on. Are you going to take responsibility if you ruin him?! Wei Xiao: Close likes him? Bai Cais heart thudded: Oh shit, I said the wrong thing. Wei Xiao sent a kind and loving smiley face, Dont worry. How can one see the rainbow if they dont experience the wind and rain? Bai Cai: He began to feel sorry for Ning Zhehan. The 18 year old with the granny gray hair experienced a level of cruelty that he should not have experienced at his age that night. One oclock in the morning. After spending ten thousand yuan and losing fifty games, the granny gray kid burst out in tears. It wasnt an adjective. It was true He really cried! Bai Cai, who was experienced and knowledgeable, also felt a strange sense of heartache, About that Ning Zhehan probably hadnt ever cried like this even from childhood, He He Bai Cai helped him curse, That person is a cruel, heartless beast. You He is really too strong. Ning Zhehan whimpered and sobbed, There are people beyond people, and heavens beyond heaven. Its my skill that is inferior. Im going to apply for an extension in training time tomorrow. I need to work harder; Im going to improve my personal strength. Only like this will I be able to keep up Bai Cai: Was this a motherf*cking overcoming mental blocks after going into seclusion from losing in the training matches and getting hammered by Wei Xiao?! Ning Zhehan left, and Bai Cai directly sent over a voice message to roar at Wei Xiao, Is bullying children really amusing?! He cried! He wailed and cried! Laozi is most afraid of people crying, you know?! Wei Xiaos voice was lazy, Ning Zhehan, right? Hes quite talented. Bai Cai was almost choked to death by his words: Hed lost every fight. He was really too f*cking talented. Wei Xiao was in a pretty good mood, Closes eye for talent wasnt bad this time. I almost lost in the last few games. Bai Cai didnt believe a damn word, You didnt use assassins all night! Wei Xiaos weakest heroes were mid-lane heroes. Tonight, hed beaten Ning Zhehans strengths with his own weakness, and even hammered him to the point of crying. Wei Xiao laughed and said, Wouldnt it be like bullying children if I used assassins? Bai Cai: Youve already been bullying them all night. How can you have the cheek to say that! Its late. Wei Xiao yawned. Im logging off. Bai Cai: Get lost, get lost, get lost! At one in the morning, Bai Cai wasnt about to go to sleep. Hed spent the day making up for his live broadcast hours and hadnt finished his quota of matches that day. He planned to charge up the rankings at this time. He didnt stop till 5AM once he started playing. Bai Cai quit the game and was about to shut down the computer when he saw an unread email. It was sent at 3AM, and the sender was Wei Xiao. The subjectCC10000 Yuan Customer Exclusive: Sweet and Love-Filled After-Sales Service. Bai Cais mouth twitched, Going wild wont kill you. He clicked open the email, and there were two videos inside. He opened up the first one, and Wei Xiaos voice, which was a little lazy from fatigue, flowed out, positioning is too far forward, the essence of a poison user is to control the casting distance. Having a short reach doesnt mean you have to be close. Only when you can control the character at the maximum distance will you be able to play out the strongest DPS This was a replay and evaluation video that was nearly thirty minutes long. Wei Xiao had cut clips of twenty mistakes from the fifty solo games that evening and gave each a very pertinent evaluation, the standard of which was comparable to that of professional coaches. Bai Cai saved it and sneered, Little Ning, your ten thousand yuan really wasnt spent at a loss. The second video was much larger and contained a full hours worth of material. Bai Cais instincts told him that he shouldnt click it open, but he couldnt stop his cheap hands. He clicked it openCC Just now was the reverse teaching material. Now, please enjoy the mid-lane grandmasters highlights! Bai Cai only watched for half a minute, F*ck! This one hour compilation was full of how Wei Xiao toyed with Ning Zhehan. They used the same heroes and the same talent points, but one was good enough to fly up to heaven while the other lay there on the ground. Such a sharp contrast made even an onlooker like him want to go into seclusion. He even called it a sweet and love-filled after-sales service! If Ning Zhehan received this second video, he would probably end up jumping off the top of the training base building! Bai Cai was just about to turn off the video when a low inquiring voice came out from behind him, This is Wei Xiao? Bai Cai: ! He used an entire lifetime of hand speed to turn off the video! Unfortunately, it was too late. Lu Feng held a cup of hot tea and looked down at him from above, Wei Xiao knows Ning Zhehan? Bai Cais back was stiff. He slowly turned his head back, Captain You still remember Old Wei? Not only did he remember him, he could even tell who it was by listening to his voice. This wasnt just remembering, right! Lu Fengs gaze turned chilly, and his voice was even colder, Open the video. Bai Cai: Lu Feng looked down at him. Bai Cai shuddered and clicked open the second video. The video picked up where it left off. Wei Xiaos lazy but arrogant voice came outCC How can I be so amazing? Look at the gap between casting spells, there isnt even 0.1 seconds of error time. Old Bai, I really dont understand, how could there be such an excellent person in this world Bai Cai covered his face. He wanted to drill under the table and hide. What made him collapse even further was This long video lasted for a full hour. Lu Feng watched the whole thing without stopping at all. He didnt fast forward, didnt pause, and didnt say a word! Bai Cai seemed like hed just been punished in public. His dignity had already been tossed away, About that Wei Xiao is working as an accompanying player. Lu Fengs eyes were fixed on the screen, which currently displayed the last frame after the video finished playing. There was a line of big, black wordsCCPlease call me the King of Casters. Accompanying player? Bai Cai really wanted to close this stupid video. Yes he accompanies others to play games. Lu Feng knew a bit about this kind of thing, Which platform? Bai Cai thought about his business deal with Wei XiaoCCforget it, forget it, he wasnt able to save himself, let alone anyone else. Bai Cai sold his good brother just like that, Memeda Platform. Lu Feng paused, then asked, ID. Bai Cais face felt like it was burning, 7758521 Kiss kiss me, I love you; Wei Xiaoxiao, can you have a bit of moral integrity! Lu Feng: Bai Cai, who wanted to survive, tried to save himself, He, he also made a replay video for Little Ning. Its this one He hurriedly opened it up for Lu Feng. After Lu Feng expressionlessly finished watching the video, the hot tea hed made earlier had long cooled. Bai Cai couldnt guess what the Great Demon King was thinking and could only try to lighten his breathing. It was so light that he was barely able to breathe! Not bad. Lu Feng spoke two words after the video ended. Bai Cai was a little relieved, Little Ning didnt lose out this time. Theres Even before he finished speaking, he heard Lu Feng continue, Wei Xiaos mid-lane heroes arent bad. Bai Cai: ??? Hed thought that Lu Feng was saying that the replay analysis was good, but it felt like he was saying that the Beast Wei had played well? Send me the video. Lu Feng set down his cup and took out his phone. Bai Cai was stunned. He couldnt help it and asked, Which one? Lu Feng: The second one. Bai Cai: There was a perfectly good replay video, yet you dont want it. What do you want to do with Wei Xiaos stupid one-man show video?! Returning back to the presentCC In the few short hours of the early morning, Brother Cais hair was about to be boiled white! He calmed down his heart and listened to Wei Xiaos WeChat message again. His attention had previously been completely caught up with the phrases little cutie, sugar baby, for a lifetime, and propose, and he hadnt paid any attention to the other content in the message. He caught on to the key point after listening to it again. Ten thousand games? Two million? God Lu bought ten thousand games with Wei Xiao as an accompanying player?! He felt that the captain might have been on his phone placing an order earlier! Bai Cai thought about the matter of the video once again He couldnt reveal the truth. He sent a WeChat message to Wei Xiao, Tell me honestly, did anything happen between you and God Lu two years ago?! Wei Xiaos reply was very quick, You havent gone to bed yet? Bai Cai was fierce, Speak! Wei Xiao sent over a shy expression, Theres nothing much between me and Close, we just slept together. Juurensha: Huhuhuhu, although probably platonically? xiin: i laugh so much translating this novel~ love it love it love it to bits Chapter 4: Wei Xiao, you used him, then tossed him away! Just. slept. together! Bai Cais scalp went numb. He immediately initiated a voice call, You f*cker and God Lu Hed known early on that this kid didnt follow the rules, but he really never expected that he really had no intentions of preserving his own life! Wei Xiao yawned and said unconcernedly, What, is your God Lu not a person? Does he not need to sleep? This wasnt a matter of sleeping or not! Bai Cais migraine was about to be triggered, You really slept slept F*ck, he couldnt say it out loud! Yeah. Wei Xiao chuckled briefly, I even pillowed my head on his arm. I heard that its what all of Closes online girlfriend fans dream of. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao seemed to be worried that he couldnt scare his good brother to death and continued to up the ante, His figure is for real. He has a full eight pack, without a single one missing, but reasonably speaking, I dont quite understand. Based on his qualifications, wouldnt it be more profitable for him to make a debut in the entertainment world than to play games? Bai Cai ended up distracted by the shift in topic, Dont use your money-grubbing vision to define God Lus style. Wei Xiao didnt agree, I dont like hearing that. How can the entertainment circle be inferior in comparison Im f*cking talking about likes and ideals. Is God Lu short on money f*ck! Bai Cai finally noticed that the conversation topic had detoured all the way to the Pacific Ocean and quickly dragged it back, Stop interrupting me and continue talking about the matter of you and sleeping together! Wei Xiao was surprised, You want to hear the details? Bai Cai only now realized what it meant to lift up a stone and smash his own feet. He didnt want to hear it, he was afraid his ears would go deaf! Dont judge Close by his cold appearance. In fact, his temper is really good. I laid on him and he didnt get angry Bai Cai was going crazy, You you laid on God Lus body??? Wei Xiao: What else? With his stature, would I be able to get out of bed if he was the one lying on me? Old Wei, how did you survive until today?! Wei Xiao: Ah? Bai Cai was convinced. When comparing the gossip on his Weibo alternate account with this, it was simply like a small sorcerer in the presence of a great one. There was no comparison at all! You didnt refuse to sign with FTW because of this, right? Bai Cai felt that hed figured out the truth. Two years ago, the supernova Wei Xiao was really like his name, valiant and brave to the extreme. Todays rookie king Ning Zhehan might have signed at a high contract price, but he was a far cry from that dazzling level that drew everyones gazes. Not only had Wei Xiao been brilliant in the youth training camp, hed also taken that team that was missing arms and legs to participate in training matches, mowing through the substitute teams of every major battle team. Although the strength of the substitute teams of major battle teams couldnt be compared with the starting lineup, they were still solid, regular troops. To them, a team from the youth training camp was no different from bronze players meeting kings. What kind of skill could they bring to the game?! Yet Wei Xiao just happened to have the ability to gather together the entire teams strength and allow his teammates to play at 200% of their strength, winning one training match after another. Bai Cai was his support and his teammate. Nobody knew better than him about how passionate Wei Xiao had been at the time. At the time, many teams extended olive branches to Wei Xiao, but he didnt think twice before entering the FTW base. There was no other reason for itCChe wanted to solo with Lu Feng. Later on The day before signing the contract, Wei Xiao ran away. Nobody knew the reason for it, and nobody knew what had happened, but nobody was able to contact that little 18-year-old brat. This rookie king, who was known as the Polaris of the China competition zone, flared brilliantly when he appeared, then disappeared without a trace. At the time, he even went up on the hot search, but no matter how much the various teams hollered and promised high signing bonuses, Wei Xiao never appeared again. The world of e-sports was crueler than that of the entertainment world, and the speed at which things refreshed was unparalleled. By the time the new season began, the name Wei Xiao had already been forgotten, and nobody cared anymore. Later on, Bai Cai ran into Wei Xiao by chance in a game. When he saw the way the opposite side played the jungle like a madman, he could feel hidden pain flaring up in his fingers. Back then, in order to keep up with Wei Xiao and stuff him with a mouthful of milk, hed broken several keyboards! This nightmare-esque psychological shadow allowed him to recognize this beast at a glance. After the game, Bai Cai had added him as a friend. The other side accepted instantly. Old acquaintances meet again; Bai Cais mood was complicated, and his emotions were still simmering. Who couldve known that Wei Xiao would start off with the words, Little brother, do you need an accompanying player? A royal sister, a loli, a sexy or sweet type; as long as you cant think of it, theres nothing this play partner cant do~ To hell with simmering! This beast only deserved one word, F*ck! Wei Xiao: Hey, little brother, calm down. Were just an accompanying player, not **. Bai Cai sent over a voice message, Wei Xiao, use human words! The other side was quiet for two seconds, then sent over a string of question marks. Old Bai? There was a lump in Bai Cais throat. He cursed, You refused to go be a proper professional player and ran off to become an accompanying player instead? At the time, Wei Xiao had said something in response. Oh, that guy never properly answered. He simply skittered across the topic and took the opportunity to lure him into a partnership. The two of them began to guide other professional players. Bai Cai thought about it for a moment now, and felt that hed stumbled on the truth. Did this kids sexual orientation tend towards men? Had he developed desires after seeing the light and run away after doing something indecent to God Lu? F*ck, Wei Xiao, that was such scum male behavior! What made it worse was, God Lu still remembered and thought about him? Two years later, he recognized him just from the sound of his voice? Not only did he collect the video full of trash talk, he also spent two million to buy Wei Xiaoxiao? F*ck, Wei Xiao, you used him, then tossed him away! Bai Cais entire brain exploded, thoughts bubbling inside like boiling water. Old Bai? Wei Xiao was puzzled, Where did your thoughts go? Wasnt it just sleeping together? Do you need to be so surprised? Listen, just listen, was this human language? Didnt we almost sleep together too? Wei Xiaos one sentence caused the boiling water in Bai Cais mind to cool down, Havent you seen me when Im sleepwalking? Bai Cai: What? Wei Xiao: There wasnt any empty dormitories when I first went to FTW, so Close let me sleep in his suite. Im aware of my own problems, so I made sure to close the door. Who couldve known that my sleepwalking problem had upgraded and could even open doors?! I was face to face with Close the instant I woke up. It was really like the sky was falling apart! Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: But, Closes temper is really good. He just told me to get off him and didnt stab me to death Bai Cai: Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: Hm? Brother Cai was about to go crazy, F*ck your daddy!!! Wei Xiao pulled the phone away from his ear, and his tone didnt have any sense of propriety, Brother Cais tastes are quite heavy, but I dont have a daddy to give you Bai Cai smacked his lips and hung up. Inside the single person apartment, Wei Xiao tsked and tossed down his cell phone. He fell back onto the soft bed and looked up at the ceiling. Hed only slept for three hours, but he didnt feel sleepy at all. There was still a long time to go before 1:30PM. Wei Xiao picked up his phone again to harass Bai Cai, Whats up with you? I was talking to you about my cute little boss, but you pulled up those old things from the past instead? Also, its 7:30 already, why arent you sleeping? He spoke fast and typed even faster. An entire paragraph of text was finished and delivered in the blink of an eye. Bai Cais brain hurt. Looking at the WeChat message hed just received, his brain hurt even more. He was still going on about that goddamned cute little boss. Brother, youre being eyed by the Great Demon King! Unfortunately, he couldnt say it. Lu Feng had told him not to tell Wei Xiao. Although he didnt know why it couldnt be said, Bai Cai wouldnt dare to say it on his own. He was afraid that once Wei Xiao knew that hed sold him out, he would turn around and expose him in return. Their revolutionary friendship had originally stemmed from mutual threat. Once it was revealed, their boat of friendship could overturn at any moment. Its nothing. Bai Cai tried to act miserable and change the topic, Isnt it just that I saw the new rookie king and was moved by the scene? Wei Xiao knew that he had a psychological shadow about the words rookie king, and said, Relax, Little Nings a pretty good guy. Hes not an old beast who will toss you behind and run off, or a blackheart who will pocket millions of your savings. Take good care of him; our small business is still looking forward to his patronage. Bai Cai rubbed his temples. This was the first time hed seen anyone scolding themselves as an old beast so naturally and skillfully. Youve already been bought out for two million. Do you still have time for others? Have a heart, you little bastard! We Xiao said, Thats not the same. My rich little cutie isnt a professional player. How could they play games every day? I estimate that Ill only be with her for two or three hours a day. The rest of my time can still be contributed towards our China competition zone. Bai Cai felt like his eyes had been burned painfully by this little cutie, You decided that theyre a girl just like that? Wei Xiao: Old Bai, develop some brains, okay? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: I set my account to male on the platform, and I also included an outstandingly handsome profile image. The one who placed the order must be a girl. What else could they be? Gay? Bai Cai stared at these words over and over again. He felt that if he forwarded it to God Lu, they might be able to eat braised Wei Xiao tomorrow! Haha. Bai Cai sent him three words. Conduct yourself well. Wei Xiao: I keep feeling like youre a little strange today. Bai Cai: Youre delusional. Wei Xiao was vigilant, Youre hiding something from me! Bai Cai: Can I f*cking hide anything from you? Wei Xiao: Thats true. To hell with your thats true! Bai Cai was really worried of exposing the truth and quickly ended the topic, Im going to sleep. Bye! Wei Xiao: Sweet dreams, memeda. Bai Cai stared at the last word for a long time and really wanted to remind him not to act so crazily in front of that new big boss, but Forget it, forget it. Seek your own happiness, comrade Wei! Wei Xiao ultimately did get some sleep. Hed set his alarm clock for 12:30 noon. He fed Soybean after he woke up and ordered takeout. After the human and the dog had both eaten their fill, they waited for the boss to come online. Soybean, Wei Xiao rubbed the huskys head and spoke to it, This is my first piece of real business. Dont judge based on how hed been an accompanying player for so long. Hed really never taken on any regular orders. Just based on his sky-high price of two hundred yuan per game, no player would be stupid enough to spend money to reserve him. So, this was like an unmarried young woman on a bridal sedan chairCChis first time! Theyre here! Wei Xiaos rich little cutie came online right on time. They werent a single minute early or late, and logged on right at 1:30. Wei Xiao sent over a good afternoon emoticon. The other party was as discreet and cautious as usual. Hello. They were really a very serious and proper little sister. Wei Xiao didnt chatter on either and sent her the team invitation link. He waited for a long time, but nobody joined the team. Wei Xiao tabbed out of the game and explained, Log into the game first, then click on this link to join my team. The other party was silent for a while, Im in. Sure enough, it was a cute newbie! Wei Xiao was very professional and patient, No rush. Take your time and ask if theres anything you dont understand. LU: Mm. Wei Xiao opened up the game, Ill take you to experience the game first. As a competitive game, naturally had a ranking ladder. The ranking segments were also simple and clear. Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, King. Above the King rank were the individual rankings. Each region had its own ranking ladder, and there was also a world ranking. The major regions werent limited to only the game servers, but also included the international competition zones. For example, Asia, Europe, North America, and so on. As of right now, across all the competition zones, the well-deserved first place was FTWs captain Lu Feng. This man, whod won his third consecutive championship in the individual competition, had taken enough championship points to put a huge gap between himself and the second place. However, at this moment, the worlds number one had just created a new account. Let alone individual rankings, this account had barely even started in the ranking segments. The game entered the matching interface, but Wei Xiao suddenly closed the queue. Wait a moment. Im going to buy a skin. Hed purposely found an alt account in order to accompany the boss. Although the account had enough heroes, it didnt have any skins. It wasnt long before Wei Xiao was back, Let me show you this years champion skin. At the end of each world cup, the makers of the game would create a special skin for the champion. This years singles champion was still Lu Feng. This was Lu Fengs fourth exclusive skin. It belonged to the shadow thiefCCRed Sky Blade. There was a display page in the team interface. Wei Xiao controlled his thief and had it strike a cool pose, What do you think? Is it badass? Lu Feng: Wei Xiaos keyboard clattered as he typed, I think that this is the most stimulating out of Closes four championship skins. Look at this cape, look at this red blade, look at this special effect After praising it for half a day, he finally came back to his senses, By the way, you know who Close is, right? The world champion God Lu, FTWs captain Lu Feng. Lu Feng was silent for a moment and typed, Yes. Wei Xiao: Hes not the reason you started playing the game, right? Ah, its okay, I get it. You young girls all go crazy when you look at his face. Its a known fact that half of Glorys female players all joined because of him. Lu Feng didnt say a word. Wei Xiao then went on to add, To be honest, Close is really very handsome, even better looking than this championship skin. If I were a woman, Id want to marry him too. Juurensha: .well Im sure Close is very happy right now. xiin: Close: Ill remember that. Chapter 5: The pentakill is yours, and you belong to me Lu Feng stared at this line of words for a good while before typing out a few words, Can you use the voice channel? Wei Xiao: Kay. He turned on the voice channel and tested it out, Can you hear me? Lu Feng typed, Mm. Wei Xiao wanted to ask the other party why they didnt also turn on their microphone, but he then thought about how the boss was the greatest, and whatever the boss did was right, so he held back and didnt ask. Then, lets start matching? Wei Xiao asked. Lu Feng listened to his voice and looked at the last line of words in the chat box. His eyes were hooded, and he was a little regretful as he pressed out a single word, OK. Wei Xiao clicked to start the game, and they entered the matching page. Low ranking matching was very quick. It didnt take long before they entered the game interface. Wei Xiao took into account that the boss was a newcomer to the game and patiently introduced, Glory is really easy to get into. Compared with other MOBA games that have over a hundred heroes, there are only 11 heroes here. Its just that there are relatively more talent specs, and the level of flexible play is very high when its all combined together Everything he talked about were things that Lu Feng couldnt possibly be more familiar with. There were indeed only 11 heroes in Glory. As a 5v5 competitive game, for the game to only have 11 heroes sounded like too few, and it seemed like there would be basically nothing left after everyone picked a hero for themselves, leaving no room for any tactical arrangements. But that wasnt the case. Glory was able to remain popular for so long by relying on its complexity and variability. There were only eleven heroes in the game, namely: Mage, Warlock, Shaman, Priest, Druid, Paladin, Engineer, Hunter, Warrior, and Gunner. But each of these eleven heroes had a wide variety of talent trees. For example, there were already eight entire talent trees that had been developed for mages. They were: Fire Mage, Frost Mage, Earth Mage, Wind Mage, Wood Mage, Blade Mage, Undead Mage, and Poison Mage. There were only a limited number of heroes, but the talent specs were constantly being updated. With such an assortment, the options and choices became much more plentiful. With more options, the tactics could become more unpredictable, and the matches would then be more exciting and fun to watch. The reason why 1v1 and 2v2 games could garner so much interest in Glory was due to the talent system. In single matches, heroes would be randomly assigned by the system, but the talent build was up to the player. For example, if one side was randomly given a mage, and the other side was assigned a thief whose class advantages could restrain them, there was still no need to worry. This was because there were so many talent choices. They could select an appropriate talent build after entering the game and still manage to destroy their opponent. 1v1 matches were completely based on the individual strength of the players. Not only did it require superb skills, it also needed a cool head. Positioning, casting spells, and using abilities was the hardware, and their understanding of the game was the software. Both were indispensable. Therefore, there was a common saying around the gameCCany professional player who didnt want to be a learning bully would never be able to win the individual championship! There was also a saying in the international competition zonesCCthose who played with tactics were all black-hearted, and the three time individual competition champion Close must have a black hole in his chest! After this saying was brought back to the country, it was pushed up into the hot search. The key words were: Close black hole. Those who didnt play games were taken by surprise when they saw this and even thought: What, what what? Close the black hole? Black holes could be closed? Scientists are so amazing! After hurriedly clicking in Ah, its gaming. Then, they saw the championship photos Damn, what a handsome little brother! I feel that Glory should pay Close endorsement fees. How many girlfriend fans joined Glory after the black hole incident? The number of people matching for games in the bronze rankings was at an all-time high, you know?! Wei Xiao had originally been giving a basic explanation of the game, but as he went on, it slowly became a basic explanation of Lu Feng. Lu Feng, who had turned on the voice channel, still felt a little regretful. Although he could hear his voice, it was unfortunate that he couldnt see him. Wei Xiao pulled the topic back on track, If its your first time playing, then try the fire mage. This talent build is very user friendly, and the fire mage has a very adorable female skin. Its very cute. As soon as he said this, someone else on the team channel spoke up, Are you bringing a girl? F*ck, ran into another trash player. Go play casual matches if youre bringing a girl, dont play ranked matches and screw others over. Casual matches were the same as ranked ones, but losing wouldnt cause them to lose stars, and it was purely for entertainment. Wei Xiao glanced at the team channel. It was player #3 talking, Play against AIs if its your first time playing and learn how to play before coming to rank, okay? Whats the point in relying on someone else to bring you up? Youll still be screwing others over when you go up to the higher ranks. Wei Xiao messaged Lu Feng privately, Little sister, dont be scared. After sending these words, he typed out in the team channel, Sorry, Im really not bringing a girl, its little sister who is bringing me along to play. #3: Enough already, you said that its her first time playing. Wei Xiao: Who says that you cant bring others when you play for the first time? #3: She doesnt even know the heroes. Can she carry you? Wei Xiao sent over a smiley face and said, Not only can she carry me, she can even get double kill, triple kill, quadrakill, pentakill, legendary. #3: Bullsh*t! Teammate #4 tried to smooth things out, Alright, it doesnt matter if theyre bringing a girl or not. #1 is definitely very strong. Wei Xiao was #1. Wei Xiao: Im not going to take a single kill in this game. He locked down the position of jungler as he spoke. #3 became even more angry, F*ck! This really is screwing people over! Seeing that they were about to enter the game, Wei Xiaos hands moved super fast. At the last second, he sent out a line of text, You can idle at the fountain and watch little sisters awesomeness. #3 really began to idle, not moving at all as soon as they entered the game. He stood at the fountain and typed, Haha, I want to see how awesome she is! Wei Xiao changed to a private team channel that only Lu Feng could hear and said, Dont be scared. In a bit, you just have to focus on taking peoples heads. Lu Fengs lips tilted up. He typed, How? Wei Xiaos voice was light, Take them however you like. Arrogance didnt count for much. What was so terrible was that this man had the skills to back up his recklessness and arrogance. Wei Xiao played a shadow thief and used the Red Sky Blade champion skin. As hed said before, this skin was made quite well. The pure black cape was like the dark night, hiding the thief within. The red short blades were the only bright splashes of color, like a pair of eyes in the dark night. The people that he stared at could only go along the road to their deaths. During the course of the entire match, Wei Xiao really didnt take a single head. He slashed down the opponents health volume to 100 points every time, no more, no less. It was so accurate that it made peoples scalp feel numb. A fire mage had very strong DPS, and the damage caused by skills was extremely high, but it required the player to be able to predict their enemys position. It was common for a newcomers skills go off in the wrong direction, and being unable to hit an opponent was nothing unexpected. Regardless of how high the damage was for a skill, if it hit nothing but air, itd still be zero DPS. However, Lu Feng didnt need to use his skills at all. He just needed to attack normally. Mages auto attack damage was very low and would cause approximately 103 points of damage. Wei Xiao controlled his opponents health bars to just below 100 points. Auto attacks didnt require any prediction. As long as a player clicked, the character would automatically attack the nearest unit. So This kind of kill could really be collected however one liked. At first, #3 was still cursing and swearing, but later on, he was completely bewildered. Not only #3, but #4 and #5 were also stunned, their mouths dropping open, and the players on the opposite side were about to retreat into seclusion. My god, whats going on with this thief?! No, the question is, how come the three of us are unable to kill a single person like him? Look at his gold, okay? He has more total gold than the three of us combined! I dont get it. How can he make it so that the last hit goes to the Fire Mage? Damn it Thief, are you bringing a girl? How the hell is this bringing a girl? This is showing off their love, my god! Im sorry, I just want to play a game. Big god, can you stop stuffing me with dog food? Wei Xiao opened up the public channel and shouted across the map, Since this Fire Mage little sister is so amazing, could you brothers give her a pentakill? The players on the opposite side: Teammate #4 sent a string of, Hahahahahahahahaha. #5 also followed suit and became a hahahaha monster. #3s face was beaten black and blue, and directly disconnected from the game. Little sister, come here. Wei Xiao paid them no heed and typed in public chat, The pentakill is yours, and you belong to me. #4: F*ck, brother, youve really got game! #5: Im learning this, Im learning this! A player on the opposite side was typing frantically, Ahhh, brothers, lets raise the torch and burn them to death! As long as I have a breath of life left, Id rather be killed by soldiers, or die at the feet of the blue daddy, or die in the spit of the dragon. I wont give you guys a pentakill! Am I playing Glory? What Im playing is a single dog bullying game, right?! Wei Xiao messaged Lu Feng privately and said very politely, No offense intended, hey, Im just joking around with them. Lu Feng paused for a moment and typed, Its fine. Wei Xiao continued, Come, as long as the timing is controlled well, a pentakill isnt difficult. Pentakill was an achievement that could only be achieved by killing five people in a row in a single wave of group battles. It could be said to be the ultimate pursuit for all players in MOBA games. Obtaining the pentakill achievement really wasnt easy. HoweverCC Pentakill! Lu Feng obtained the easiest pentakill of his life. He just moved his mouse a little and auto-attacked five times. The players on the other side were going crazy, This is illogical, this is really illogical! This game experience sucks, damn it. If I didnt already know that Glorys hack prevention system was the best in the world, I would think that the other side was using a plug-in. Teammate #4: I feel that he really used a plug-in Teammate #5: Yeah, hes using a plug-in called love! Just before Wei Xiao took down the opposite sides resurrection crystal, he knocked out four words, Thank you, thank you. The other side: After the game ended, Wei Xiao reported #3 for idling and was in a good mood as he watched the system ban him from the game. He asked Lu Feng, How did that feel? Was it okay? Wei Xiao had played very seriously in this game, more seriously than when he solo-ed against professional players. This wasnt something where he just needed to win. This required absolute control. CCControl the damage over each segment of time, every level of equipment, and every skill level. Even across the entire competition zone, there were very few people who could do this. Lu Feng saved the replay video of the game and said to Wei Xiao, Very good. Wei Xiao was relieved. He had a sense of professional propriety. While he had no psychological burdens charging professional players 200 yuan a game, it was unreasonable to charge ordinary players such a high price. What he could do instead was to provide the most perfect service so that boss money wasnt spent in vain. Wei Xiao continued to ask, Then should we go on to the next game? Lu Feng looked at the time, I have something to do. Lets play in the evening. Wei Xiao: Kay. As expected, it was a busy little sister. She already had something she needed to do after just one match. Just before going offline, Lu Feng typed again, Oh, right. Wei Xiao: Hm? Lu Feng: Im not a little sister. Wei Xiao: Ah? Lu Feng: Im male. Juurensha: Ahahaha, Lu Feng only deciding to tell him now. xiin: Lu Fengs bad taste is quite deep. (also holy crap this chapter has 13 footnotes!!! and one of the footnotes almost ended up with its own footnote!! even ch4 only had 12!! ahhhhh!!!) Chapter 6: The cute girl has become a man! Ma-male?! Wei Xiao was shocked silly. Hed called out little sister for a whole night, but the other party turned out to be a man? He was the only one left in the team room. LU had already gone offline. Originally Wei Xiao had wanted to switch to his main account and play ranked matches, but now To hell with ranked matches! His three views had just been completely shattered, okay?! Wei Xiao made a phone call to Bai Cai. Brother Cai had only just woken up. Seeing the two words Old Wei on the screen of his cell phone, he could feel his brain twitch, Hello? Its over! Old Bai, Im done for! Wei Xiaos shouting caused a shiver to run through Bai Cai. What, whats going on? No way, had the captain exposed himself just like that? Didnt he say that his identity needed to be kept secret? Bai Cai was a little nervous. He was worried that Beast Wei was looking for him to punish him for his crimes. My little cutie, bah that boss of mine is actually Bai Cai heart thudded. He felt like he was already halfway buried in the earth. Male!!! Wei Xiao couldnt even express the entirety of his shock with multiple exclamation marks. Bai Cai: Damn it, really, if it wasnt that he was short on money, hed definitely cut off all relations with this beast! Going on like this, day by day, he was going to be frightened into a heart attack sooner or later. I reminded you a long time ago not to presume so much. As soon as he heard that he hadnt been exposed, Bai Cais heart steadied, and he even felt a little like gloating. Who would have dared to think that Beast Wei would have a day like this? It was true that everything had its vanquisher; he had to acknowledge this fact even if he didnt want to. Wei Xiao was in urgent need of venting his shock, Hes male. Why would he buy ten thousand games with me? Hes male, so why doesnt he find a girl to accompany him? Hes male, so why didnt he refute me after I called him little sister countless times?! He listed out all kinds of details. Wei Xiaos detailed thinking was terrible! Bai Cais heart of gossip was greatly piqued. He asked, You called him little sister countless times? Daddy Wei, youre a real brave man! Looking at the entire league, youre definitely the only one who dares to address the Great Demon King like this, bar none. I didnt just call him little sister, Wei Xiaos voice was full of tragic sadness, In order to coax him and make him happy, I even Although there was no video replay of the game, Wei Xiao still managed to rely on his extraordinary narrative ability to vividly recreate the game for Bai Cai. Bai Cai wasnt polite at all and laughed uproariously, Only you, really, Old Wei, youre amazing. You even came up with the pentakill is yours, and you belong to me ahahahaha. Wei Xiao collapsed backwards on the bed, I was wrong, I was really wrong. Bai Cai laughed until he got a stomach ache and wasnt very sincere in comforting him, Well, its alright. Wei Xiao bounced out of bed again, How can it be alright, hes a man! Bai Cai: So what if hes a man? Wei Xiaos mind was unusually clear, Does he like me or something? Is he fascinated by my silhouette in the profile picture? Is he buying me with this two million! Bai Cais lips twitched, Youre overthinking it. Wei Xiao reasoned with him, Then why is he throwing money at me! Bai Cai thought in his heart: Perhaps he fancies your strength and ability. After waking up fully, Bai Cai had already calmed down. The captain always cherished talent. Two years ago, hed stretched out an olive branch to Wei Xiao, but unfortunately this boy had run off. How much had his signing fee been that year? Oh, it seemed to have been two million. Times had been different then. Before Wei Xiao, the maximum price when new players were signed to each team was no more than 500,000. Wei Xiao had come in out of nowhere, using his own blood, boldness, and spirit to sweep through all the supporting teams and shockingly raising his own value several fold. At the time, when the major clubs were bidding one million yuan, FTW directly offered a high price of two million yuan, and the other clubs were silenced instantly. In fact, Wei Xiao had made it clear long ago that he was only interested in joining FTW. Unfortunately, he was listed in the league at the time and had to participate in the bidding. FTW didnt disappoint him, snatching him up at such a record-breaking price. This had been a good story in the e-sports circle at the time. Everyone was looking forward to seeing this wolf cub bring new blood to FTW, and bring new hope for the China competition zone. However Just before signing the contract, Wei Xiao disappeared. The good story became strange gossip and was finally drowned out beneath the weight of quickly changing events. After thinking calmly, Bai Cai had already understood Lu Fengs intentions. Although two years had passed, Wei Xiao had always maintained a very high level of skill due to his ongoing training with professional players. Or, it should be said that he was more powerful now than the flashy, unrestrained rookie king hed been back then. Wei Xiao had been improving himself even as he tempered others. As of now, FTWs starting line-up was one person short, and if they could make Wei Xiao return to the team, it would be like having a sudden shock troop. They might even be able to finally break through the pass and slaughter their way to the world finals. CCA real world championship. The China competition zone had been short of one for too long. Bai Cai was very willing to give the captain a helping hand and capture this little bastard back! Bai Cai replied to him, You think its throwing money, but maybe its nothing but a single bristle from nine cows to the god-level rich. Wei Xiao was shocked, How big of a cow does it have to be for them to have such thick hair! Even after knowing him for so many years, Bai Cai was still somewhat unable to adapt to this fellows brain circuits. How big of a cow? Was God Lu big enough?! Bai Cai: F*ck! Wei Xiao: ??? Bai Cai calmed himself down; he couldnt let himself get led astray by this guy. He spoke very earnestly, How about this, lets put ourselves in their position and think about it. Wei Xiao was very well behaved, Teacher Bai, please speak. Bai Cai cleared his throat and asked him, If youre a newbie with a lot of money who is looking for an accompanying player to try out Glory, would you look for a man or a woman? Wei Xiao: Um. Bai Cai continued to guide him, Would you find a high level one? A brilliant one? One who can show you what makes Glory special? Wei Xiao thought deeply and came up with an answer, In that case, I have to find four accompanying players, one to carry me, one to chat with me, and two others who can provide comedic dialogue for me to listen to. Bai Cai: Did they really have to bring this guy back to the team?! How come he felt that if Wei Xiao came back, their FTW team would really become WTF (what the fuck)?! Old Bai gnashed his teeth, What if you can only have one accompanying player! Wei Xiao: If Im that rich, why would I only find one? Bai Cai: These are the parameters of the subject! Fine then, Classmate Wei finally went back to the subject at hand, Male. Bai Cai was relieved, See, you would look for a man too, right? Especially since your price is so expensive, it comes across as very powerful at first glance. A god-level rich person who isnt short on money would definitely choose you. Wei Xiao muttered thoughtfully, This makes sense. Bai Cai could be considered to have cleared the captains name, So, dont think strange things. Being a man doesnt mean theyre gay. Wei Xiao gave a disbelieving snort. Bai Cai, What, are you still not assured? Wei Xiaos voice was a little eerie, Using me as a reference is too subjective. Bai Cai had a bad premonition, Why? Wei Xiao: Im also not sure if Im gay or not. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao made his case, Look at me, Im twenty years old, yet have never been in a relationship, never liked anyone, never had a secret crush, and never chased anyone Bai Cais brain was about to burst, Didnt you want to propose to the cutie this morning! Wei Xiao: Yes, but the cute girl has become a man! The one and only time my heart was moved turned out to be like this. Bai Cai knew him too well, Are you sure that it wasnt the two million that made your heart feel moved? We Xiao: Cough What kind of big truth are you spouting! Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Listen to your brother and be a good accompanying player. Your boss is definitely a straight man. Very straight, as straight as steel. If he has any other ideas towards you, I As he spoke, Bai Cais desire for survival suddenly burst out. He was a little afraid of saying anything too harsh. Wei Xiao was very sharp, Do you know something I dont? Bai Cai felt a little guilty, What could I possibly know? Wei Xiao narrowed his eyes, Bai Caicai F*ck! Bai Cai was really scared of Wei Xiaos god-like instincts. He forcefully shifted the topic back on track, If you really dont know your own sexual orientation, then go to my microblog and read those short stories. If reading them piques your interest, please keep some distance from me later; if you feel numb like youve been struck by thunder, then congratulations, youre a straight man. There was a click. Brother Cai had hung up the phone. Wei Xial stared at his cell phone Old Bai couldnt have sold him out, right? This fellows life was more in the teeth of the storm than his. He shouldnt have had the guts to do so. Wei Xiao really opened up Weibo and looked up Bai Cais alternate account. There were two legendary figures in the Glory e-sports circle: One was One Lamp Grandmaster, who was strong enough to go up against the heavens yet hadnt exposed any personal information; the other was the Gossip Emperor who was hidden amongst the professional players and was devoted to YY and secrets of the players, pushed to the heavens by the CP fans, and hated by the players themselves. One Lamp Grandmaster was Wei Xiao. Gossip Emperor was Bai Cai. It was no surprise that the two of them would get together. One was a ruthless, tricky kind of person who bullied professional players until they cried, and the other was an unscrupulous professional player with no moral integrity. They were both existences that contestants wanted to pull out and beat up, so they trusted each other very much. So, even though Wei Xiao was a little suspicious, he didnt think too much about it. Compared with his One Lamp Grandmaster identity, the identity of the Gossip Emperor was much more hateful. He took a look at the latest postCCGod Lu and Coach Chen Fengs must-share sweet nine square grid. The accompanying images were from the match scene. A players only teammate in the individual competition was their coach. On the dazzling finals stage, Chen Feng was the only person standing behind Lu Feng. The angle of these photos was very extreme. One photo was of Chen Feng bending over to look at Lu Fengs computer screen. One was of Lu Feng looking back, seemingly asking Chen Feng about something. The photo at the center was of the two peoples four eyes facing each other Wei Xiao shuddered. He sent Bai Cai a WeChat message, I just got shocked to death! Even my goosebump skin is peeling off! Bai Cai: Do you understand yourself now, straight man? Wei Xiao sent over a thumbs up, Reasonably speaking, I really admire you. Close and Brother Chens relationship is so pure, yet you can still create a base bromance out of it! Bai Cai sent him an eye-roll emoticon, Would I dare send it if it wasnt pure?! Although the entire league felt that the Gossip Emperor had no bottom line, in fact, Brother Cai was very careful about the limits. The CPs that he created were all of people with friendship that was so pure it couldnt be any purer. Wei Xiao couldnt read on any further. He closed Weibo, Im relieved. Laozi is a straight man! Looking at these nine photos made him more than just scalp numb, he felt numb all over! Closes gaze, oh its the gaze that Brother Cai had photoshoppedCCwas! poisonous! Juurensha: WX, pretty sure youre not all that straight xiin: almost every thing that comes out of his mouth is a flag i love it! Chapter 7: Solo with God Lu? Wei Xiaoxiao wanted that even in his dreams! The big stone in Wei Xiaos heart landed. Even if the boss was crooked, his own straight-as-steel self would be able to withstand any wind and rain. This two million could still be earned! Im going to go score points. Wei Xiao said goodbye to Bai Cai. Bai Cai was exchanging voice messages with him while brushing his teeth, Oh right Wei Xiao: Hm? Bai Cai: Gary made an appointment for a 1v1 training match. Wei Xiao: Old Gs really hardcore! Gary was one of the top players in the North American competition zone, and his team L&P had won second place in the world finals last season. They were one of the top teams in the world. They were so outstanding in the team competitions, and werent much worse in individual matches. Gary, as the teams strongest player, made it all the way to the finals of the individual competition. And then, he met Lu Feng. And was sent off-stage by a 3-0. They were the runner up for the team competition, and runner up for the individual competition. This years L&P was worthy of being called the second sibling. How could Gary accept this? They were still in the off-season, so he came for another training match. Bai Cai was apprehensive, Hes really hardcore, but were not that hardcore! Lu Feng would agree to his training match, but he had one request in return. L&P and FTW would also have a team training match. It needed to be said that the China competition zone had always made round trips to the international arena in recent years, so strong teams rarely ever scheduled training matches with them. As of now, the entire China competition zone was very jealous that FTW was able to arrange a training match with the second place team from the finals. Unfortunately, there was nothing they could do even if they were jealous. Who told them not to have a Close on their team? Wei Xiao comforted him, Dont worry. Its not like you havent been abused before. Isnt it just going into seclusion? After closing up for a while youll get used to it. Bai Ca really wanted to spray toothpaste foam all over his face, Cant you have a little compassion! Wei Xiao was compassionate, Old Bai, pain is happiness. Bai Cai was choked half dead by his words. He wanted to curse him out but knew he couldnt win, so it was fortunate that his thoughts were nimble and he was able to find internal zen. Wei Xiaoxiao, continue to act out now. When you return to the team, Ill watch your pain is happiness. Wei Xiao was still quite concerned about FTW. He continued, God Tang retired this year. Isnt your team short a top-laner? Bai Cai: Mm. Wei Xiao: Has Close picked anyone?: Bai Cai sneered, Yes. Wei Xiao immediately became interested, Who! Bai Cai muttered something that was too profound to be understood. Wei Xiao blah-blahed through a pile of names, then said, Hurry up and tell me who, Im going to go try them out. Bai Cai wasnt about to tell him who it was, Its going to be kept secret until the contract is signed. Wei Xiao: F*ck, we already have this kind of relationship, yet youre Bai Cai: What relationship? Theres no relationship between us! Wei Xiao tsked, It cant be a newcomer from the youth training camp, right? Its not that Im judging, but while its okay to have a Little Ning, adding another newcomer will really cause your FTW to crash this year. Bai Cai thought to himself: There will come a time when you say our FTW. You dont need to concern yourself over it. Well still be first within China this year. Wei Xiao: If you guys have the ability, go take first place in the world! Bai Cai was irritated, You speak of it so lightly, if you can do it, you go! Wei Xiao: Bai Cai finished washing up, Get lost, get lost, Im going to the training room. Wei Xiao didnt reply. Bai Cai stared at his second last sentence and felt a little regret. Had he overdone it? No, not even a little Wei Xiao really could do it. It was just that he refused to go! As a rich domestic club, FTW was built on the phrase we can afford it. Two years ago, S City had specifically allocated a piece of land for the development of the e-sports industry, and many clubs had settled into the Glory Park and built new bases. But no matter how the other clubs built their bases, they couldnt be compared with FTW. Other clubs were still building villas, but FTW had practically built a castle. Other clubs were still sharing Glory Park, and FTWs own garden was like a magnified version of the game canyon, allowing players to not only roam through the canyon in the game, but also roam and relax there in reality. Looking at the large-scale manor that was the FTW base, the teams next door almost wanted to cry from jealousy! Of course, the FTW base had been flamed by haters ever since it was completed. For exampleCC Their ability to build a base isnt small, but if you really have the ability, go win the championship cup! If you have money to waste on this, why dont you reflect on the next round of international games? Living in the lap of luxury, extravagant and extreme, its no wonder that you cant achieve anything! One has to suffer a little in order to become successful. I suggest that FTW first go and sleep in the dog kennels! In fact, some corners of this grand manor really werent that much different from a kennel. For example, FTWs primary marksman, Yue Wenles bedroom. Yue Wenles name made him seem like a very literary and artistic fellow, and he was also born with a very clean appearance. Because he had a baby face, he looked young and tender, like he was only fifteen or sixteen. However, as soon as one opened his bedroom door, there would be no doubt about why hed earned the nickname of Old Pro by the time he was nineteen. He really was An old pro! At this time, Old Pro, oh wait, Yue Wenle, was currently coaxing Granny Gray in the training room. The two c-positions (core DPS positions) of FTW were huddled together for warmth. Ning Zhehan had cried all night, and his eyes were swollen, This replay video Yue Wenle had had the same experience, Its too easy to cry. Ning Zhehan turned his head around in surprise, Brother Le, youve also looked for One Lamp Grandmaster before? Yue Wenle put down the potato chips in his hand, and opened his computer, Yeah. Dont judge based on how his bedroom was messy enough to be a dogs nest. His computer was actually clean and tidy. There were only three icons on the blue desktop screen. The first icon was Glory, the second was Replays, and the third was Beast. At first, Ning Zhehan had thought that he would open up the replay folder. Who couldve thought that he would open up the beast folder instead? The folder was densely packed with videos. Each had a string of numbers beneath the icon. Ning Zhehan could understand what it meant, the 2019.1.15 in front was the date, and the 5000 behind it was the amount of money. The last video was from almost a year ago. Ning Zhe hand got it, Brother Le, are these videos from when you were in the support team? Yue Wenle nodded, Its been a year, but Im still unwilling to delete them. He spoke like he was sentimental about it, but Ning Zhehan could feel the teeth gnashing involved in the word beast. Ning Zhehan was still inexperienced and said tactfully, The Grandmaster is a pretty good person. There was a crunch sound as Yue Wenle chomped the potato chips into fragments, Hehehe. Granny Grey: He suspected that Yue Wenle was pretending that the chips were the Grandmaster! Yu Wenle casually clicked open a video for Ning Zhehan, Do you see the ice hunter lying there on the ground? Thats the hero I became famous with. Having the hero they were famous for be hammered into a melon peel was something that Ning Zhehan had also experienced! Little Ning whod only been abused into crying once hadnt yet developed any hatred yet. For the moment, he only felt worship, The Grandmaster is really powerful. My mage was also pressed to the ground and smeared around by him. Yue Wenle ate his potato chips in silence. Ning Zhehan became even more convinced the more he watched the video, Why is the Grandmasters marksman so strong! Yue Wenle: His top-lane heroes are also very strong. Ning Zhehan: I know, TPTs vice-captain changed positions because of him! Yue Wenle chuckled, Let me give you some advice. Ning Zhehan: Ah? Yue Wenle: You can find him for solo games, but if you see him take out his thief, please quit the game immediately. Ning Zhehan was shocked for a moment, Grandmasters Yue Wenles tone was dark, Hes strongest as a jungler. He can take any of the heroes that our captain is good at and play them so well that you fall into despair. Sh*t! Ning Zhehan seemed to have heard some urban legends, Then has he ever soloed with the captain before? Bai Cai, whod only just arrived at the training room, heard this sentence and thought a sentence in his heart: Solo with God Lu? Wei Xiaoxiao wanted that even in his dreams! Bai Cai pushed open the door and went inside, interrupting their conversation. Ning Zhehan was young and inexperienced, and was still a curious baby. After greeting Bai Cai, he asked, Brother Cai, have you ever soloed with the Grandmaster before? Bai Cai: He never solos with supports. Ning Zhehan wondered: Why? Because, Bai Cais teeth hurt, He doesnt kill domesticated animals. Ning Zhehan: FTW base, sixth floor. The teams head coach Chen Feng pushed open the door and entered, So, theres a candidate? The winter sun was very weak and wasnt very bright despite it being noon. It streamed in through the French windows onto the thick carpet, casting a warm and comfortable glow in the room. Chen Feng looked across the dappled rays of light at the man seated at the conference table. Eight out of ten sentences from Wei Xiao couldnt be taken seriously. Only the words that he used to praise Lu Feng were all for real. Close indeed had enough appearance value to support the hundreds of millions of female Glory players. Not only women; even ordinary men found it a little difficult to get used to. Why did he have to be so handsome? And good at playing games. And a champion. And he was f*cking rich. Comparing him with other people could really make one die of envy. Chen Feng had once been the tall and handsome God Feng, but now he was smashed to death on the beach, and had even been smashed to the point where he had to fully accept it. It was quite lamentable. Lu Feng looked at him, Do you still remember Wei Xiao? Chen Feng was stunned, Didnt that kid go to New Oriental? For better or worse, Wei Xiao had stayed at the FTW base for a few days. Even if he hadnt signed a contract and was considered a free man, it really hadnt been appropriate for him to leave without saying a word. So, hed left a letter. The letter was very beautiful. The paper was clean, and the handwriting was exceptional, but the words on it were enough to make people expire from angerCC Various leaders, Im sorry. Ive always wanted to become a chef ever since I was a child. Now, the admission notice for New Oriental has just arrived, and Im going to go follow my dreams. See you all in the jianghu! Lu Feng also recalled this matter, and the corners of his lips pulled up slightly, It seems that he graduated. Chen Feng: ??? You can still smile after being stood up like that?! Was this the Great Demon King of Glory that hed known for four years?! Thats not the point! Chen Feng pulled his thoughts back and spoke rationally, I know that youve always admired him, but Wei Xiaos been out for two years. How can he adapt to the current rhythm? We all know that talent is one thing, but experience is more important. Lu Feng stood up, closed the blinds and said, Come take a look at this game replay. He turned on the projector and clicked the play key. Chen Feng glanced at it and asked in surprise, Bronze game? How could anything be seen from this? Forget a bronze game, even a king segment game would be useless. There was a big difference between a match with randoms and the professional arena. Even a heaven defying performance in a random match was meaningless. Lu Feng stared at the screen, Keep watching. Chen Feng pressed down his impatience and kept watching. This game video recording was very complete. Not only did it show the fights in the canyon, it also kept the words in the chatroom. There was also no need to mention the voice chat. The voice of the youth came out through the stereo, Little sister, dont be scared. Chen Feng: ! What the hell was this little sister? Wasnt LU Lu Fengs alternate account? There was a quarrel in the chat box. The thief with the ID Your Father said, Not only can she carry me, she can even get double kill, triple kill, quadrakill, pentakill, legendary. This was very normal. That was God Lus alt account. Let alone in bronze games, he could also do it in professional games What came after left Chen Feng stunned. Perfect positioning, strong overall view, amazing skill understanding, and that abnormal ability to control health points The random players only felt that the thief in the game was amazing and crazy and showing all kinds of ridicule. Chen Feng, as a professional coach, saw countless impossibilities. This Chen Feng even forgot to blink his eyes, This kid Lu Feng: It seems that the teaching quality of New Oriental is pretty good. Chen Feng: . Then, he saw the sentence that Wei Xiao sent in the chat box, Little sister, come here. The pentakill is yours, and you belong to me. Lu Feng explained it to him, Oh, the fire mage who took the pentakill is me. Coach Chen shattered. Was there anyone who couldnt tell? The ID LU made it clear with a glance! This wasnt an explanation. It was an emphasis! Juurensha: God Lu: very pleased with the progress in their relationship and plans so far xiin: God Lu wants to make his ownership very, very clear. Chapter 8: Lu Feng: Soloing with him, I had to go all out Chen Feng ignored Lu Feng and continued watching the video. It was already enough that his operational skill was amazing, his game consciousness was strong, and his understanding was high, but this kid Wei Xiao was also black hearted! That big pentakill gift bag that was delivered at the end really required all sorts of skills and means. On the surface, it seemed that this video was only about a thief beating others up, but in fact, hed been laying down the foundations for this pentakill moment throughout the entire match. First of all, he diverted their attention, and seized the other side until their mental states collapsed and exploded. The other side became afraid to act alone and began to group together, thinking that they would still have a chance to survive in a 5v1 situation. However, this sent them straight into Wei Xiaos arms. If they didnt group together, how else would he be able to cut down five people in one breath? Shadow thieves had stealth skills. Although there would be a small hint over the head of the target when they went invisible, it still took a few seconds for a thief to appear after they were prompted. Wei Xiao took advantage of these few seconds to attack from behind, gathering them together and backstabbing all of them, perfectly delivering serious injuries to the five players. The other sides support and warrior had more health and wanted to run, but Wei Xiao didnt get anxious. He first had the fire mage take down three of them, and then chased after the warrior before using a slow to cause the support to move at a snails pace. The fire mage jumped and pranced over and casually auto attacked once Pentakill! Everything had come together perfectly. It was so precise it couldnt possibly be any more precise. It wasnt hard to destroy the other party and take a pentakill. There were countless people who could do this in the bronze segment. What made this time so deadly was that he hadnt taken a single kill in this situation, but his gold and resources were three times that of his opponents; he had made no mistakes in releasing his skills for the whole match, and his control over their health was at an insane level. Hed given all the kills to the fire mage. Not only had he predicted the damage, but hed also created opportunities that were perfectly within the fire mages range of attack. He didnt seem to be just playing a game. It was more like hed turned the Glory canyon into a game of chess, and he was the only one who controlled all the pieces. Chen Feng watched the video twice in a row, then furrowed his brows, His individual strength is very high. Although this was the bronze segment, if the video of this wave of operations was released, it would probably cause the professional circle to shake three times. Lu Feng: Mm. His response was light and clear like he wasnt overly concerned, but his eyes were staring unblinkingly at the screen. The meeting room was dark, and the screen was bright. The projection reflected in the dark eyes as though igniting a cluster of flames. Chen Feng saw this and felt a burst of hot-blooded excitement in his chest. Battle intent. There was the desire for battle in Lu Fengs eyes. How long had it been since hed seen it? Ever since Lu Feng had become the only number one in the world. Cheng Feng had never seen such emotions in Lu Fengs eyes since then. That was the urge to fight, wanting to win, the full blown desire for battle against a long awaited opponent! Chen Fengs heart thumped loudlyCC Was it really okay for Wei Xiao to come to FTW? I acknowledge his personal strength. Chen Feng calmed down, But what were lacking is a team. FTW had already won enough individual world championships. They were more eager than anyone else for a real championship. As far as personal strength was concerned, there was nobody who could match Lu Feng. What they needed more was a team that twined together to form a rope, a team where five people added up together equaled infinity! Lu Feng retrieved his gaze, He can do it. Chen Feng had a very good understanding of Wei Xiao. Two years ago, Chen Feng had been extremely supportive when Lu Feng had wanted to sign him. What he had appreciated wasnt only Wei Xiaos personal strength as a rookie king, but also his courage to challenge the major clubs with a team from the youth training camp. Excellent newcomers existed everywhere, but the only one whod dared to do so in the past two years was Wei Xiao. He was arrogant and willful, but it was precisely this aura that ignited the fighting spirit of his teammates, making it so that an immature team could play far beyond their own abilities and win again and again. Wei Xiao was like someone who exuded light, someone who could easily kindle the fires in his teammates. Back then, it had been this quality of his that all the major clubs were competing for. Unfortunately, he withdrew at the peak of his popularity and disappeared without a trace. Chen Feng sighed and asked Lu Feng directly, What happened between the two of you two years ago? This was the issue he felt the most scruples about. It was true that Wei Xiao had the ability to gather together a team, but if there were grudges between him and Lu Feng, it would all be empty talk. In FTW, Lu Feng would forever be the core. A person who couldnt cooperate with Lu Feng had no value no matter how strong their personal ability was. Lu Feng glanced at Chen Feng, He didnt give up the professional arena because of me. This sentence gave others too much food for thought. He didnt talk about what had happened and just said that it wasnt because of him. Chen Feng spoke very seriously, Its not that Im insisting on looking into your private affairs, but I cant trust Wei Xiao if any hidden dangers arent resolved. In fact, his opinions couldnt influence Lu Feng. If Lu Feng wanted Wei Xiao, he didnt need his consent at all, only Having been good friends for many years, Chen Feng would still say what needed to be said. He stayed at the base for three days. Lu Feng slowly opened his mouth and stated. Chen Feng said, He was with you the whole time for those three days. Lu Feng replied, Yes. Then you guys Chen Feng had been curious about this for a long time. What happened in those three days? When Wei Xiao had reported to their club, FTW had still been at their old base. It was a three story small building that was far less spacious than it was now. At the time, both the first team and substitute team had lived in the same building. Space was tight, so Lu Feng had taken Wei Xiao to his suite on the third floor. It might be called a suite, but it was just a living room with a bedroom to one side. The entire area it covered wasnt even as large as a single bedroom in the new base. From when Wei Xiao went upstairs, he never came down again. Three days later, what they saw was the letter about him going to chase his dreams in New Oriental. In the FTW base, the only person whod been in contact with Wei Xiao was Lu Feng. Lu Feng hadnt said much either and had proceeded to prepare for the new season as though everything was normal. Now, Chen Feng finally wanted to know the truth. He always wanted to solo with me. Lu Feng said calmly, So we soloed for 48 hours. Chen Fengs expression collapsed, What? Lu Feng spoke blandly, I still have recordings of the matches. Do you want to see? No Chen Feng didnt want to at all. What shocked him was, You guys soloed for 48 hours? Lu Feng: There were meals, water, and washroom breaks in between. Chen Fengs voice was about to break, What about sleeping? Lu Feng: Wasnt tired. Chen Feng: . What kind of mystical truth was this?! Wei Xiao was at the base for three days and didnt go downstairs for three days straight because hed been soloing with Lu Feng? That little lunatic had originally come because of Lu Feng. It wasnt hard to understand why he would do such a thing. But why did Lu Feng go along with it for such a long time! 48 hours! There was no need to talk about anything else, werent you guys tired?! What about the wi-win rate? Chen Feng asked. Lu Feng paused for a moment. Chen Feng thought about the newcomer Wei Xiao from back then and the Lu Feng who was at his peak at the time and stammered even more, It, it cant be that he didnt win a single game, right? Lu Fengs lips curved slightly, He won the last game. Chen Feng: . Lu Feng added, He won against me with a thief. Cheng Feng wanted to roll his eyes, F*ck, 48 hours. You lost because you were tired from playing, right! Lu Feng: I wasnt actually tired. Chen Feng: Then were you annoyed? Lu Feng: It was fun soloing with him. Chen felt that the world was going crazy, Then why would you lose? How could your thief at its peak lose?! Lu Feng lowered his eyelashes, I felt a little distressed. Chen Feng almost fell off his chair, Ah?! Lu Feng seemed to be afraid that he wouldnt understand and explained further, I made a mistake in positioning due to distress and was killed. Chen Feng didnt want to listen to Lu Feng explain anything else in this life! Youd been f*cking abusing the other person for 48 hours and started to feel distressed during the last game?! Chen Feng thought about that scene and felt like his heart had shattered! Was this what someone human would do? What had the 18 year old Wei Xiaoxiao done wrong? He had to suffer such abuse just before joining the team! It was already like that, yet Lu Feng still said that Wei Xiao hadnt given up the professional arena because of him. If it was himself, dont even talk about competitions, he would have directly jumped down from the third floor! Is there anyone who would act like you?! Cheng Feng had a bellyful of opinions regarding Wei Xiao leaving without a word, but now he only wanted to criticize Lu Feng, Is there anyone else who would treat a newcomer like that?! Lu Feng shook his head, Soloing with him, I had to go all out. Chen Feng was stunned. Lu Fengs eyes were dyed with a trace of barely perceptible gentleness, He doesnt only want to win. He also wants respect. In those 48 hours, Lu Feng had countless opportunities to let Wei Xiao win. How could winning or losing be that important in casual battles between two people? But, he couldnt do it. Every time he looked into the youths eyes that were burning with battle spirit, he had no way to relax. Winning wasnt important. What was important was for him to respect his opponent. In the last game, Lu Feng wasnt distressed because of the constantly-losing Wei Xiao. He was distressed that Wei Xiaos fingers were trembling slightly, yet he remained resilient and maintained perfect control over his character. His physical strength couldnt support him anymore, but his mental strength was still unwavering. Lu Feng was distressed over how Wei Xiao had been serious from the start and had never given up. In the last game, Lu Feng made a small mistake, and Wei Xiao still caught it despite his extreme fatigue. He had really won against him. Using a thief, hed won against Close. Lu Feng was fully certain. Wei Xiao hadnt left because hed lost for 48 hours. Because after the last game, the youth who was sprawled in the gaming chair said to himCC That was too amazing. Youre really strong! Lu Feng had looked at him. The youths face was pale and bloodless from fatigue, and only his eyes were as bright as a morning star. One day, Ill really win against you! FTW: For The Win. Many people said that Lu Feng had been born for FTW. Lu Feng felt that the youth in front of him had beenCC Born to win. Juurensha: .guys, you should have been hallucinating from sleep deprivation at that point. xiin: ahh youth *sips tea* Chapter 9: Wei Xiao: Im basically still one of FTWs family members Then why did he leave? Chen Feng was very puzzled. 48 hours of soloing left anyone who heard it with too much to disparage and nothing to say, but it could be seen from the effort required that this kid couldnt extricate himself from the game. A solo game between players with a high level of disparity could only last for 20 minutes at most. How could Wei Xiao, whod lost 144 games, be willing to accept it? Simply based on his little lunatic character, wouldnt he stay in FTW just for the sake of regaining some of his losses? It still went back to that sentenceCCOne day, Ill really win against you! It was such a clear declaration of war. Under normal circumstances, Wei Xiao should be practicing his skills diligently, pestering Lu Feng every day. How could he bear to leave? If they took 10,000 steps back to look at the situation, if Wei Xiao wanted to win against Lu Feng in a competition, he couldve gone to another club instead of going to New Oriental to become a cook! It didnt make sense. Chen Feng thought about it and asked, Was it a problem with his family? Despite the rapid development of the e-sports industry and the scarily high income, there were still many people who didnt acknowledge this industry. There was no need to mention distant cases, there were many such examples around them. Team captain Mo next door was a typical man who would have to go back and inherit family businesses worth hundreds of millions if he didnt do well in gaming, and there was God Fu whod dropped out of South University in order to pursue a career in e-sports and broken off his relationship with his parents Of course, they couldnt skip their own God Lu in these examples. Nobody knew what happened with Lu Fengs family, but a person whod run away from home at the age of 16 and hadnt contacted his family for five full years wasnt very far off from breaking off all relations. Chen Feng tried to test out the waters, Could it be that Wei Xiaoxiao is also a rich second generation? Faced with a two million yuan signing bonus, only the most rich and respectable families could say they didnt want it and really walk away! Lu Feng: I dont know. Chen Feng didnt think too much about it. The two of them had only known each other for three days and three nights. How could they have talked about such a deep problem? It was normal for Lu Feng not to know. In fact, Lu Feng did know something about it. After soloing for 48 hours, fatigue and weariness swamped them the moment they relaxed. Even Lu Feng, who was in excellent physical condition, was somewhat unable to bear it, not to mention Wei Xiao, who was only hanging on with one breath of life left. The teenager finished his trash talk and closed his eyes right there in the e-sports competition chair. Lu Feng called out to him. Wei Xiao groaned vaguely. Lu Feng pushed against his shoulder gently, Go sleep in the room. Wei Xiao: Zzzzz This kid. Lu Feng came closer and asked, Do you need me to take you to the bedroom? Wei Xiao hadnt actually fallen asleep, and was only too lazy to move. He bounced up, Captain, youre really ruthless. How could you use the word take?! Lu Feng smiled, Otherwise? Wei Xiao spoke righteously, Use carry, of course! Do you understand what a princess carry is! Its okay, I dont mind, my legs are already out of order so theyre giving me permission to be a little princess. Lu Feng had heard of how this kid didnt follow normal rules long ago, but he didnt know whether to laugh or cry when he encountered it for himself, Get up. Wei Xiao even felt wronged, You bullied me for 48 hours, and youre still being mean to me. Lu Feng: The youth was born with beautiful features, especially that pair of eyes that could be filled with any kind of emotion and was particularly attractive. Lu Feng shifted his gaze and blanked out his expression, Take or walk, pick one. Wei Xiao had only been talking trash. Adding on that he hadnt fully gotten over losing for two days and two nights, hed been purposely trying to give Lu Feng some grief and didnt actually want to be a little princess. He stood up slowly, You really are a great, great ahh A big yawn interrupted the three words Great Demon King into Great Yawn King. At that moment, Lu Feng was a little regretful. If he really signed this little bastard to FTW, would the base have any restful days? He really wanted to improve the dreary atmosphere of FTW, but he didnt want it to become a playground. After finally sending the little bastard to the bedroom, Lu Feng went to take a shower and was ready to get some rest. Ding A cell phone rang. Lu Fengs cell phone was silent all year round. He was taken by surprise by this strange sound. After three consecutive ding sounds, he finally realized that it might be Wei Xiaos cell phone. Lu Feng tied a towel around his waist and went to the computer table to get the cell phone. He wasnt sure if it was anything urgent, and it was better to take it to Wei Xiao just in case. The cell phones screen wasnt locked, so three messages appeared in Lu Fengs line of sight. [ Xiaoxiao, mother was wrong. Can you please call me back? ] [ Come back, okay? Your mother will make you lots of delicious food. ] [ Xiaoxiao, dont blame dad. He really doesnt have it easy. ] Lu Feng frowned, flipped the phone so that it was face down, and didnt keep reading. Had Wei Xiao run away from home? Had he not discussed the contract with his family? Lu Feng went straight to the guest room, thinking that hed wait until Wei Xiao was awake before talking to him about it. Signing a contract with a minor required the parents consent. Wei Xiao couldnt take responsibility for it himself. Hed just arrived at the guest room and hadnt yet knocked on the door when it opened from within. The youth was wearing a white t-shirt and shorts as he stood there in front of him. Lu Feng was a little surprised, You havent slept yet? He handed him his cell phone. Wei Xiao didnt even look at his cell phone. Instead, he charged straight into him. Lu Feng was worried hed trip and didnt dare to avoid him, Wei Xiao? Wei Xiaos arms wrapped around him, So hard. Lu Feng: ! Wei Xiao mumbled, This pillow is so hard. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao hadnt slept in 48 hours. After that, he slept for a full 20 hours. Lu Feng tried to break away from this sleepwalking little bastard, but after trying for half an hour to no avail He went back to his own room and went to sleep with Wei Xiao in his arms. This was what had happened over those three days and three nights two years ago. Why on earth did he leave? Chen Fengs voice called Lu Feng back from his thoughts. Lu Feng had some guesses. There was a 90% chance that Wei Xiaos departure was related to his family. As for the exact reason, he didnt know. Anything that could make that teenager who was so dedicated to winning give up on the competition arena couldnt have been anything small. Lu Feng said, Give me some time. Chen Feng: Its best if we can talk it out. It would be a pity if a talent like this ended up buried. Lu Feng made a sound of agreement. Chen Fengs curiosity rose up again, Speaking of which, how did you contact him? Lu Feng: Chen Feng said, Do you need to have Old Xiang show up for this? Hes good at this kind of thing Xiang Liu was the manager for FTW. He was the best when it came to communicating with people. No need. Lu Feng said, Ill communicate with Wei Xiao. Chen Feng didnt think too much of it, Thats right, hes the most interested in you. We might scare him off again if we all butt in. Lu Feng nodded lightly. Chen Feng was just about to leave when he thought about the matter of time, By the way, what did you guys do in the last 24 hours? Lu Feng paused, Sleep. Chen Feng patted his own skull, Thats right. After playing for two days and two nights, its really time to tune everything out and sleep. But who couldve known that Lu Feng would shoot another arrow at him, In the same bed. Chen Feng: !!!!!!!!!!!! Wh-what??? Lu Feng looked at him calmly, Was there anything else? Chen Feng: About that Shit, what do you mean, anything else? This was f*cking everything!! What do you mean by sleeping together, what do you mean in the same bed? Didnt your small suite back then have a guest room? You guys F*ck f*ck f*ck, Coach Chens gentle and elegant character design was broken! Ultimately, Chen Feng didnt dare to ask for more details. This was too terrible. Too, too, too terrible. He was just an ordinary and simple coach and couldnt withstand this kind of stimulation! It was just three days, this kind of pace was too fast! They played games, slept together, and then broke up? It was really, it was really efficient! Coach Chen now thoroughly understood the truth, but he really wanted to kick this truth out of his head! Close and Garys training match was scheduled for three in the afternoon. There was a confidentiality agreement for training matches. Game videos could only be used for review purposes within the teams of both sides and couldnt be shared with outsiders. Although the video couldnt be shared, news of the confrontation between the two teams couldnt be concealed. It had already gone viral on the internet, and all the members of FTW had people asking them for details on their Weibo. Of course, Lu Fengs Weibo was commented on the most, but he never went on Weibo and didnt see it. It started at three and ended at five. They played three games over two hours. Although it was 3-0, Gary was indeed very strong. Not many people could push Lu Feng to this point. Gary wanted to keep fighting, but Lu Feng typed, Tired. Gary had also found a translator from who knows where, and his words carried a heavy northeast flavor, Tired just like that? Its only been two hours, and youre tired? Fong, dont bluff me, Laozi hasnt lost enough, again, again! Not only did he have a northeastern accent, he even had a typo. Lu Feng: Well play another game on one condition. Garys excitement had gone straight to his head, OK! Its fine even if you add another ten training matches! Lu Feng: Its not training matches. Gary: Then what? He could only make appointments for training matches with Lu Feng by trading using team training matches. In fact, Gary was unable to make the decisions on this matter. Lu Feng would discuss it with Xiang Liu, and Xiang Liu would go and communicate with their team. Although the manager over there didnt know why FTW would put forward such a request, he nodded and agreed. Xiang Liu was quite puzzled. He asked Chen Feng, Who does Close want to send the training match recording to? Thats right, Lu Fengs condition was that he wanted to send the videos from today to a friend. Chen Fengs heart was already a pile of ashes, Donno. Xiang Liu looked at him like he was a fool, Old friend, whats the matter with you? Have you been infected by Garys bad Chinese? Coach Chen was too lazy to deal with this lucky person who didnt know a thing! On the other side. The rest of the FTW team was still involved in their own training. Bai Cai received Wei Xiaos invitation to form a team. He didnt even have to ask any questions and already knew what this fellow wanted to do. CCNo, I dont have it, cant do it. Brother Cais refusal smashed onto Wei Xiaos head three times in a row. Wei Xiao showed rare good temper and asked humbly, Brother Cai, Brother Bai, Brother Baibai, for the sake of your little followers sincerity, can you let me take a look? Bai Cai had long grown numb towards this kind of sweet talk, Wake up. There are confidentiality agreements for training competitions. How could they be shown to outsiders? It would be a violation of the rules! Wei Xiao was so attentive for one reason only. He just wanted the training match recordings for the games between Lu Feng and Gary. Wei Xiao, How am I considered an outsider? I was the one who had one foot in the door to FTW two years ago! Bai Cai: You said yourself that it was two years ago, and only one foot in the door. Wei Xiao: Sigh, even if Im not a member of FTW, Im still one of FTWs family members. Bai Cai was really amazed by his utter shamelessness, I dont have any family like you! Wei Xiao: What are you thinking about? Im saying that Im God Lus family member. After all, weve slept together before. Bai Cai: The Brother Cai that was angry enough to explode finally let loose his cruel words, You should just give up now. Even if my head is chopped off! And given to you to use as a football! I still wouldnt share the secrets of the team to an outsider like you! Ill let you run and bounce around and happily kick up as much of a fuss as you like! You want to watch the 1v1 training match between God Lu and Gary? Dream on! There was a ding. A WeChat message had just flown its way into Bai Cais cell phone. He looked down at itCC Captain Lu: Send this video to Wei Xiao. Bai Cai saw the name of the videoCC12/2 Close VS Gary. To-todays training match video? Ah, what about the confidentiality agreement! Wait a minute, was Wei Xiaoxiao really a family member? xiin: about Gary. hes from the west, with hilarious shitty chinese (that he uses every now and then in the novel). i want to try and keep some of that in the translations, so sometimes what he says will be weird or have typos on purpose~ just imagine him as someone who learned a second language with a crappy, unreliable teacher also, i can hear the sound of Bai Cais brain turning to into porcelain and shattering on the floor Juurensha: Ah WX, so shameless hahaha (although now him sleepwalking straight into God Lus arms makes a little more sense) Chapter 10: I dont want anything but Close This face slapping came so fast that Brother Cai was left completely at a loss. What to do? Hed just smashed down his ultimatum. Should he cut his head off and let Wei Xiao kick it around like a ball? Did he really have to be so unfortunate?! The clueless Wei Xiao was still working hard, Brother Cai~! Ill play as your support, okay? Comrade Bai Cai, one of the top-line supports of the China competition zone, had always been fond of having jungler kings play support for him. His own familys jungler king Close was number one in the world, so Bai Cai couldnt ask him. Although this half-baked dabbler in front of him didnt play in the professional league, his level wasnt low, either. Having Wei Xiao act as his support cough, it was a little exciting. Brother Cai found a way to take a step back, Help me grab the thief. Laozi was going to carry the whole game today! Wei Xiao: Kay. He was first for the hero selection and didnt say anything else as he locked in the shadow thief. Brother Cais lips twitched, Is the power thief not fun? Shadow thieves could be considered one of the most difficult heroes to operate in Glory. Brother Cai liked peaceful and mild support, how could he kill and slaughter like that group of beasts! Wei Xiao sighed, I forgot that Brother Cais hand speed cant keep up. Bai Cai: Do you want your motherf*cking video or not?! F*ck, he had to give it to Wei Xiao even if he didnt want to. That made him even angrier! Wei Xiao: Its okay, with my support, whats there to be afraid of? Bai Cai endured it and asked, What support hero do you want? Wei Xiao: Holy priest, then. Holy priest was one of the heroes that Brother Cai was famous for. A single handful of team milk was enough to make the other side question the meaning of their lives. It was clear that theyd already dealt so much damage, but why was their opponents health full again? Bai Cai sneered, You can also play holy priests? Wei Xiao smiled slightly, No problem. After their teammates finished choosing their heroes, Bai Cai clicked on Wei Xiao in the interface and requested to exchange heroes. Teammates could help each other snatch up heroes first, and then exchange them with each other before the game began. Bai Cai clicked to exchange, but Wei Xiao didnt accept. Bai Cai clicked again, and Wei Xiao still didnt move. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. After entering the game, Wei Xiao finally spoke up, Ah, I just went to the bathroom and forgot to exchange heroes with you. Bai Cai: You motherf*cker, you did it on purpose! Hed just been thinking, this beast Wei Xiao hadnt played support since he entered this industry. How could he play support for him?! Wei Xiao didnt deny it. He smiled slyly, Who says that thieves cant be support? Bai Cai would be damned if he believed him, You wont take any kills? Wei Xiao: Theyre all yours. Bai Cai: F*ck, laozi is a healer. What can I use to take kills? Wei Xiao: Bubble tune. The holy priest had a crowd control skill that allowed them to bounce around in the crowd. The control time wasnt long, but it was deadly when used well. At first, Bai Cai had thought that Wei Xiao was just trash talking. This fellow was probably just acting like a brat with him because he didnt want to play support, but later First blood! Two kills! Killing Spree! Legendary! In the course of a single game, Brother Cai felt proud and satisfied as he took down more kills than he had over the course of an entire season. Defeat! Um Brother Cai, whod shown off across the entire map and taken 22 kills, still ended up losing the game. Wei Xiao sighed, There really is a level of difficulty involved in ranked games. It was the same routine, but while it could be used to steamroll through a low ranked game, it didnt work for the higher ranks. Everyones game awareness didnt leave room for healers to act so arrogantly. Additionally, he always felt like the fire mage from the bronze segment was better at keeping up with him than this professional support player It must be his imagination. His boss was a little cutie oh, was a newcomer. Although theyd lost the game, Bai Cai was still in a great mood after taking so many kills. He took advantage of the opportunity and casually offered, Ill give you a big gift bag in return for your hard work. Wei Xiao replied languidly, I dont want anything but Close. Couldnt you add the word video to the end of it? The words that you omitted were very problematic! Bai Cais heart was dead as he clicked on forward, Check your WeChat. Wei Xiao didnt treat it seriously, Dont send me a red envelope, if you want to send me money, do a direct transfer f*ck! Bai Cai: Hmph. Wei Xiao accepted the video file transfer and confessed his love for him without hesitation, Old Bai, I love you! Brother Cai couldnt afford to accept his love, Get lost, get lost! After a minute or so, the beast who said he loved him sent him a voice message. Wei Xiao imitated Bai Cais voice: Dont even think about it! Even if my head is chopped off! And given to you to use as a football! I still wouldnt share the secrets of the team to an outsider like you! He wasnt missing a single phrase, nor was he off by a single word. It was like hed copy pasted. Bai Cai closed his eyes and pretended he was dead! It was too hard, it was really too hard being him! FTW base. After leaving the training room, Lu Feng went upstairs. Cheng Feng was making preparations to go over the replay. Xiang Liu followed behind Lu Feng, Still okay? Lu Fengs brows furrowed slightly, Its fine. Xiang Liu lowered his voice, Your shoulder Lu Fengs footsteps paused, and he said quietly, Dont bring this up at the base. Xiang Lius heart was full of worry, You should tell Old Chen. That fellow was still arranging training matches like crazy and didnt consider Closes situation at all! Lu Feng turned his head to look at him, Xiang Liu. Xiang Lius heart stuttered. Lu Feng continued, I said Im fine. Im clear about my own body. Xiang Liu didnt dare say anything more. Not only was the youth in front of him the pillar of FTW, he was also his boss. He sighed, In short think it over. Ill go call the physiotherapist. Lu Feng didnt say anything. He shifted his left shoulder, and the sharp tingling pain spread from his shoulder and caused twinges in his elbow. Wei Xiao quickly loaded the video onto his computer, hugged his husky, rubbed its big head, and started up the replay in delight. There were a total of four games, and the total game time was 150 minutes. Gary was amazing for dragging the game on for such a long time before losing. He was really worthy of being the ten thousand year second sibling! Both of them were randomly assigned thieves in the first round. Wei Xiaos eyes brightened and sparkled like stars when he saw Lu Fengs thief. This backstab was absolutely amazing! Invisibility with the light arc, Soybean, look, Close managed to create nine light arcs. Your daddy can only create eight! Soybean: Arrooo. If it could be translated, it would probably mean something like: What exactly is this. Garys not bad, eight light arcs, motherf*cker, Old Second is really strong! This backstab Wei Xiao grabbed at the huskys fluffy fur and said anxiously, The margin of error is no more than 0.01 seconds, wait, let me recover a little! Soybean: Aroo~ Wei Xiao clicked to play it again, slowing down the speed and re-watching it over a dozen times, Close is stronger. It was a two and a half hour video, but it took Wei Xiao six hours to finish watching it all. Hed sat down at six in the afternoon and watched non-stop until midnight. This match was perfect and flawless beyond question. Close was still the same Close, one who ceaselessly climbed up to the peak. Gary was also one of the few opponents who could fight against him. Wei Xiao stared at the darkened computer screen and leaned back in his chair. Soybean had already fallen asleep by the chair. Wei Xiao stared at the ceiling, his hands clenching into fists. If he hadnt left two years ago. The one fighting against Close now would be him. He was a real opponent for Close. He would definitely win. Only Wei Xiao raised an arm to cover his eyes. What lingered in his ear was an elderly voice that had already become a nightmare, Dont be the same, dont be like that, be steady and study well, get a steady job, and live a simple and happy life Wei Xiao exhaled gently and sat up, Soybean, come eat a late night snack. The husky heard the words late night snack, and its tail wagged and shot straight up to the sky as it scurried after its master. Wei Xiao cooked himself a bowl of noodles and came out in time to see the ground covered in dog food. He said angrily, Cant you be more refined?! Soybean snorted and ate even more happily. There had been half a bowl of dog food, but half of it ended up splashed out all over the floor. Wei Xiao: You doggy thing! He might scold it, but he ultimately still let it do as it pleased. After eating, Wei Xiao opened up the video again. Hed already watched it for six hours and might understand more of the details than even the L&P teams coaching team. For the next hour, Wei Xiao stared at Closes multiple extreme operations over and over again F*ck! At one oclock in the morning, Wei Xiao closed the video, took out his cell phone and called Bai Cai, Old Bai. Bai Cai wasnt surprised at all. He even wanted to say: Here it comes. Wei Xiao: Help me arrange people. I want to solo. Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Couldnt you have f*cking said it earlier? Hed sent him the video at six in the evening. Had he only finished watching it at one in the morning? Wei Xiao said directly, Create a group and contact everyone you can get in touch with. Half price discount, and it comes with a special Easter egg. Bai Cai had just known that it would turn out like this. Every time he watched Closes matches, he would let it get to his head. But this time, there was also an Easter egg. Bai Cai asked, What kind of egg? Wei Xiao laughed briefly, No matter who it is, as long as they win against me, Ill be their training partner for life. Juurensha: Close: possibly decimates everyone in order to get the Easter egg xiin: *cuddles Wei Xiaoxiao* itll be okay~ Chapter 11: Idle Grandmaster seeking abuse online There was no doubt about it, this fellow had gone completely crazy! Bai Cai retorted, Are you really treating my China competition zone like theres nobody left? Believe it or not, Im going to find a big guy and blow you up! Wei Xiao sighed lightly, If you can get Close here, Ill thank your eight generations of ancestors. Bai Cai suspected that he was cursing him, and he even had the evidence, You go wild, then! Wei Xiao was currently caught up in his excitement and urged him, Stop dragging your feet, can you find people or not? If not, Ill head over to your Weibo and appeal to your tens of millions of fans F*ck. Bai Cai was scared of him now, You just wait! Wei Xiao really waited obediently. He sat there motionless in his e-sports chair, his body seemingly boneless as he lay back. His eyes were fixed on the word Victory on the computer screen. Some people were natural born warriors. His boiling blood needed an outlet. Was he just looking to win? No, what he wanted was to have a proper fight! Ten minutes later, Bai Cai finished pulling the group together, and the name of the group was incredibly cockyCCIdle Grandmaster seeking abuse online. Grandmaster Wei: Bai Cai, f*ck your daddy. Bai Cai: Are you not idle? Wei Xiao: Do you really think of yourself as a f*cking pimp? Bai Cai: Being a pimp is still better than serving you. Wei Xiao didnt talk any further nonsense with him and changed the group name himself. So, the few professional players whod just come in watched the group name change from Idle Grandmaster seeking abuse online to Invincible Grandmaster seeking defeat. Yu Fei: Chen Chao: Xia Dan: Blue: For a moment, they couldnt figure out which group name was cockier! Bai Cai saw that everyone was there and didnt bother with nonsense. He laid it all out and said, Everyone is an old customer here. Its time for Grandmasters regular bout of madness. Oh, its the regular distribution of benefits. Old rules, half price promotion, wheel war. Brother Cai purposely paused for a moment, then announced, In order to inspire everyones fighting spirit, theres an Easter egg this time. These were all old customers. None of them felt that these two pieces of work could arrange any normal Easter eggs. As long as youre able to win against the Grandmaster in a solo match, no matter who it is, the Grandmaster will provide lifelong training partner services for free. The four people in the group: F*ck! The stakes are so high! Lifelong training partner? Free? Wei Xiao was calm, Thats right. Yu Fei, Chen Chao, and Xia Dans blood heated and they were caught up in the moment, Im in! Blue pondered for a moment and stretched out a small feeler, Its a little difficult to win a game. Can killing him once count? The other three were shocked by Blues shamelessness and spoke out one after anotherCCOld Blue, whats the matter with you? Yu Fei: As the strongest top-lane in the countrys servers, how can you be so quick-witted! Chen Chao: Youre making me, the national servers mage king, feel ashamed of myself, hey! Xia Dan: Can you guys have a little ambition? For better or worse, were all professional players. Wheres our professionalism? Integrity? Im different. I feel that I should get the Easter egg as long as my arrow is able to hit the Grandmaster. Bai Cai rolled his eyes. Sure enough, he who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and he who stays near ink gets stained black. Thinking back, these four people had been pure and flawless when they first met Wei Xiao, just like granny gray in the training room next door. Now Where did these old beasts come from?! It was no wonder the China competition zone was in such a slump. It would be strange if they were able to obtain a championship with their hopes pinned on these unambitious things! Wei Xiao sent a smiley emoticon, Coming or not? Three of them all agreed in unison, Coming! It was impossible for them to bargain. At the very least, those who had already dumped six figures worth of money on Wei Xiao would never miss this half-price discount opportunity. Wei Xiao started up a private room and asked, Whos first? Yu Fei raised his hand to sign up, Me! The other three fired off sympathetic emoticons at him. Yu Fei was a jungler. He used assassin type heroes to fight against the Grandmaster, which was another way of saying that he was rushing to his death. For him to charge in so fearlessly was both admirable and pitiable. Wei Xiao paused for a moment, then gave him a friendly reminder, I only want to play thief tonight. Are you sure you want to go first? Yu Fei: Ah? Chen Chao was also surprised, Grandmaster, youre using thief? Xia Dan: No way, thieves are banned by default! Blue said darkly, Sure enough, this is a treacherous banquet. Bai Cai watched how they shriveled up, and his hands felt itchy. It was fortunate that they werent his teammates. If they were, he wouldnt give them heals at all and would directly put a poison ring on their heads, poison them all to death, and be done with it! These old bastard pros had an exceptionally thorough understanding of Wei Xiao. For example, Grandmaster never soloed with supports, because as a jungler, one needed to have the graceful demeanor of protecting ones healer. For example, Grandmaster was very strong with all heroes and all talent specs, and when he entered customized solo matches with others, he would usually use the hero that the other party was good at to beat up the other party. Another example of their understanding was that Grandmaster was strongest with thieves, but he didnt often bring them out to play. He was afraid that he would beat people up until they entered seclusion, only to ruin his own business. Now The four of them all had the same thought: Is there still enough time to leave the group now?! Bai Cai saw through their thoughts as a glance, Half price discount, with such an attractive Easter egg. If you guys arent interested, Ill call over other people. Im in, Im in, Im in. One can always achieve more as long as they have a desire to do so! Isnt it just a thief? Ive survived being a corpse beneath God Lus blade before! The one whod spoken was Xia Dan. He hadnt been much afraid of anything when hed just started on his career and had bravely signed up for the individual competition. In round one, hed met Lu Feng. And then How could there be any and then! Wei Xiao: Since thats the case, then Egg God should go first. Xia Dan: Ah? Wei Xiao had already dragged him into the match room. Xia Dan: Oh shit, Im not ready yet ahhhhhh! As long as they knew the room number, anyone could join and watch the fight. Wei Xiao and Xia Dan had already entered the canyon, and the people in the group were enthusiastically discussing the match. Yu Fei: Im putting down a 200 yuan red envelope. I bet that Egg God can last for more than ten minutes this match. Chen Chao: I bet 400. Egg God can only last eight minutes at most! Bai Cai put down 1000, Five minutes. Yu Fei: Thats impossible! The game mechanisms are still there. Its impossible to make a push to the opponents crystal in five minutes. Blue was pessimistic, What if Brother Egg surrenders in five minutes? Although Wei Xiao had no way to remove Xia Dans crystal in five minutes, he could still beat Xia Dan up to the point where he surrendered. Players could choose to directly surrender after five minutes in a solo match. Chen Chao was shocked, Thats not possible. My Brother Egg is a top ADC player in Glory. Wheres his dignity as a professional player?! Five minutes later, Xia Dan cried as he came back to the group, Too fierce, its really too cruel. I never want to see another thief again in my life, theres a problem with this hero. Whats the matter with the game designers? Keep nerfing it, no, just delete the hero directly! Chen Chao had lost his red envelope. Cant you be less f*cking shameless! Then, the mage king Chen Chao was dragged into the match room. When he went in, God Chao was still a mage king. When he came back out, God Chao was already dead. Yu Fei, whod written such a good poem, was also called in. For better or worse, he was still a jungler in one of the top four teams. God Fei held on, and even managed to show some signs of a counterattack. However, after the shadow thief used eight light arcs, he went crazy, Goddamn! Who exactly are you? Gary? Inta? You cant be Close, right?!!! Other than the three men who ranked in the top, he couldnt think of anyone else with this level of skill! The group chat that had been noisy and bustling earlier was now as quiet as a chicken. Chen Chao: Its very obvious that the Grandmaster is Chinese. Xia Dan: Its very obvious that God Lus voice doesnt sound like this. Blue: What I really cant understand is, how come none of the big clubs have signed him if we have such a big daddy in our competition zone? Bai Cai looked very seriously at the game interface. Hed seen the training match between Lu Feng and Gary this afternoon. Because it wasnt a customized game, the heroes for the training match were random. He didnt know if it was Garys bad luck, or Lu Fengs good luck, but in short, Lu Feng had gotten a thief in the first match. In Lu Fengs hands, this hero was nothing short of a miracle. When it came to any kind of top-level operation, there were only moves that you couldnt think of, and nothing that God Lu couldnt do. Most of the worlds top god-level players were good at heroes that had a high level of difficulty in operation. For example, Garys signature hero was also a shadow thief. However Hed lost badly at Lu Fengs hands. Take the shadow thiefs invisibility and light arcs as an example. Ordinary players could create three light arcs, and most professional players could only create five. Two years ago, Lu Feng had won the world championship using eight light arcs, breaking the current record. At the time, the data analysts had said that this was the limit, and it couldnt go any higher. Now Nine arcs. It sounded like a simple number, but nobody could know exactly how much sweat and effort had gone into it. It was no wonder that Wei Xiao would be affected and chase after him on the sly for two years. It wasnt easy for them to meet again, but Lu Feng had already climbed up to stand at an even higher position. Glorys individual competition was the cruelest and also the most authentic event in the history of e-sports. There was only one person. Everyone only looked at one person. Strength was strength. There was no doubting it. Seven oclock in the morning. Yu Fei: No way, I really cant anymore Chen Chao: Old Egg, our two teams still have a training match this afternoon. Are you not sleeping? Xia Dan: ZzzZzzZzzZzz. Blues reason was quite realistic, My wallets balance is insufficient, Im leaving, Im leaving. Six hours later, the people who were attacking as part of the wheel race ran off, and the person whod been on the receiving end was still full of energy. Bai Cai yawned, Beast! Was he f*cking human? Being nineteen was great, hey, he was only one year older than Wei Xiao, but how come this difference in energy made it seem like they were a hundred years apart?! Bai Cai sent Wei Xiao a voice call, Theres probably a bit over 20,000 in the account. Ill transfer it to you in a bit. Wei Xiaos voice was a little hoarse. He was inevitably still a little tired, Old Bai Bai Cai was sorting out the replay videos. In any case, the training room had emptied out a long time ago, so he directly turned on the speaker, Whats up, did you not play enough? Wei Xiao sighed and said, They all dont cut it. Bai Cai: Wake up! The only ones who are left are in the support teams or the children from the youth training teams. You cant even let them off the hook? Ah, Wei Xiaos voice was low and quiet, and sounded a little pitiful, I really want Close. There was a bang. The sound of something falling to the floor. Bai Cai turned his head, and sucked in a breath. There was someone standing at the training room door. Even if their back was against the light, that height, that figureCC Captain Lu God Lu Was it already time for your morning run?! Also Bai Cai looked at his cell phone that was on speaker, and thought of Wei Xiaos words F*ck, what kind of dangerous wordswere these! The author has something to say: God Lu, did you hear that! [Super loud] Additional note: Regarding the game and competition format, hey, its all made up. Dont bring reality into it, its not based on anything. Love you guys! Juurensha: Oh man, of course Lu Feng heard that. xiin: Bai Cais life is hard Chapter 12: You were going to do it just because he wanted to? Wei Xiaos voice came out of his phones speaker, What was that sound? Old Bai, did you smash the keyboard with your face? To hell with smashing the keyboard with his face! Its your God Lus sports water bottle that was shocked into falling to the ground by your words! But did Bai Cai dare to say so? He didnt even dare to breathe too deeply. Lu Feng bent over and quietly picked up his water bottle. Bai Cai opened his mouth and wanted to say hello, but Lu Feng stretched out his index finger and made a gesture against his lips. Bai Cai: F*ck! Wei Xiao, who was on the other side of the phone and didnt know anything, was still in a state of disappointment, Theyre all professional players, but how could the gap be so big? Yu Fei and the other three added together cant even compare to one of Closes fingers. When he heard this, the corner of Lu Fengs mouth curved slightly. Bai Cai could see it very clearly, and he just wanted to escape and preserve his own life. Say, why is Close so strong? Two years ago, he pressured me until I lost my breath, and two years later Oh, hes probably forgotten who I am by now. Bai Cai thought in his heart: He remembers, he remembers very clearly. Kid, you just spoke half a sentence, and he smashed two million on you! Wei Xiao sighed with too much emotion, People are really different. A genius like Close can only be encountered by luck and wont be found on demand. Bai Cai really wanted to roll his eyes: Is it it fun for you as a GENIUS with capital letters to say such a thing?! Old Bai, Wei Xiao was perplexed, Why arent you talking? Bai Cai glanced at Lu Feng, seeking instructions. Lu Feng glanced at Bai Fengs cell phone, indicating that he should reply. What could this cabbage do? He could only steel himself and go up. After spending over a year with Lu Feng, he had built up quite a bit of understanding and foresight. He thought about Lu Fengs purpose and understood the score in his heart. If you want Close Bai Cais heart shivered when he said these words, but he forced himself to remain calm, Then come to FTW. Wei Xiao was silent. Bai Cai snuck a glance at Lu Feng and saw him staring at the cell phone. He felt that hed already figured out the Emperors wishes quite well and continued to exert himself, FTWs starting line-up just happens to be short a person, you can come fill that position. Can you decide that? Wei Xiao made a dismissive sound and said sourly, Didnt Close decide on someone a long time ago? The person hed decided on is you! Bai Cai didnt dare to say it out loud and instead took a detour, Anythings possible as long as the contract hasnt been signed. Wei Xiao was self-deprecating, Nah, its still possible to run off after going to the base. He was talking about himself. Bai Cai was worried that bringing up old history would make Lu Feng unhappy and interrupted him, Do you want to come or not? As long as you want to, I promise we can reach an agreement! Wei Xiao: Not going. This heartless little beast! Bai Cai didnt dare to look at Lu Feng. He just felt that his back was cold, and the floor heating in the training room seemed to have disappeared instantly! What are you holding back for? Based on your level, FTW would sign you based on a casual solo match. The signing fees now are even higher than they were two years ago. Even Little Ning got three million. If you come wouldnt it be several times higher! Bai Cai was very confident about this. Just based on the two million that Captain Lu had spent on the vanguard, this stinky kid Wei Xiao was still worth a lot of money! Wei Xiao drawled, Whats so good about playing professionally? I dont want to win the championship, and Im not interested in team competitions. As for the money, Im making so much now I cant spend it all. Any more would be a burden. Bai Cais lips twitched. Youre really an unambitious One Lamp Grandmaster who wants nothing from life! However, the problem was that if you were really unambitious and wanted for nothing, then you wouldnt f*cking stay up in the middle of the night and abuse four professional players until their wallets were empty! Bai Cai beat him with a heavy hammer, FTW has Close. Wei Xiao made an Ah sound. Based on the sound, he seemed to be really sad. Bai Cai accurately poked at his weakness, If you come to FTW and see Captain Lu all the time, wont you be able to solo with him whenever you want to? Im not exaggerating, but our God Lu can promise to accompany you until the end. Wei Xiao spoke faintly, He really can. His physical strength is better than any other man Ive ever met. Bai Cai: How come perfectly normal words took on a different flavor when they came out of this kids mouth! So Bai Cai struck while the iron was hot, Are you coming to FTW or not! Wei Xiao paused for half a second, Old Bai, its hard to find a balance between life and human affairs. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao let out a long sigh, Its impossible for me to play professionally. Just let Close become the one unobtainable thing in my life. Bai Cai: ?????? Hed been doing his best to convince him for ten minutes, but this was the result?! Bai Cai turned back to look at Lu Feng. There was no change in Lu Fengs demeanor. He wasnt surprised, nor was he too angry probably. Bai Cias mouth moved silently as he asked for the next set of instructions. Lu Feng typed out a sentence in the notes of his phone, Yue Wenle is awake and will solo with him. Bai Cai understood instantly! Ah, I just saw Old Yue! Bai Cais acting skills were remarkable. Wei Xiao yawned, God Le wakes up so early? You didnt see wrong, right? At this time, its only Close wholl be awake for his morning run. Bai Cai was really scared of this damned brat, Are you treating me like Im blind? Captain Lu is one meter nine, and Old Yue is one meter eight. You think I cant tell the difference? Wei Xiao: You have a point. Bai Cai urged him, Do you want to play with our zones number one ADC and have a solo match? FTW was the championship team of the China competition zone in 2019. As the starting teams ADC, Yue Wenle deserved his title as number one. Bai Cai continued, Old Yue is more than several levels higher than Xia Dan. Wei Xiao instantly became spirited, Alright, will he come? Although Yue Wenle had been hammered into exploding by Wei Xiao when he was in the support team, his skill back then was not the same as now. The Yue Wenle whod experienced several big competitions was no longer an ignorant newcomer. He was quite looking forward to it. Bai Cai glanced at Lu Feng and went on, Ill ask for you. Wei Xiao: Quickly! Bai Cai pretended to push the chair away and shouted into the distance, Old Yue~ He then came back to say to Wei Xiao, Ill hang up first. Well communicate by text. Wei Xiao: Kay! After hanging up the phone, Bai Cai let out a long sigh of relief. Lu Feng asked, Stayed awake all night? How could Bai Cai not understand what he meant? He hurried to explain, That kid watched the video of your fight with Gary and it all went to his head. He soloed with people all night. Lu Feng: Who did he look for? Bai Cai thought to himself that it should be fine, so he opened his mouth and thoroughly sold out all of these big customers. Lu Feng: The record? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao won them all. Lu Feng: Mm. Although it was just a single word, Bai Cai seemed to hear the meaning of thats about right from it. He was overthinking it, he must be overthinking it! Their great demon king was a champion machine without feelings. How could he express such a rich level of emotions?! Bai Cai asked tentatively, Captain, are you going to solo with him? Lu Feng sat down in front of the computer. He turned it on and started checking over it all in one go, Didnt he want to? Bai Cai: You were going to do it just because he wanted to? F*ck, what kind of gay thing was this? As a straight man, he really shouldnt go and accompany girls to form CPs. His brain circuits werent functioning right! Wei Xiaos WeChat bombardment came, Howd it go howd it go howd it go? Bai Cai really couldnt understand. How could Wei Xiao, whod soloed all night long, be so energetic! Did the word tired even exist in his dictionary?! Internet addict teenagers really couldnt be provoked. Hes here. Ill invite you. Bai Cai replied to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was in a good mood, In order to show respect to God Le, Ill use a thief. Bai Cais lips twisted: Just wait for your punishment, stinky boy. Bai Cai asked Lu Feng, Custom mode. Captain, what are you using? Lu Feng: Ice hunter. This was the hero Yue Wenle was famous for, the one that Wei Xiao had once pressed down and smeared all over the ground. Wei Xiao saw the hero that Yue Wenle selected, and the excitement he felt in his heart experienced a discount. Thieves didnt have a natural advantage over hunters. But a shadow thief was definitely an ice hunters nightmare. There were quite a few talent builds for hunters that could engage in close-combat, and there were even summoner-class builds that had the power to fight against a shadow thief. It was only the ice hunter who couldnt hold up against the shadow thief when it came to melee. Yue Wenle was the top ADC in China competition zones, but that was in 5v5. There was a big difference between team competitions and individual matches. For example, with the ice hunter build. Although it was difficult for it to gain an advantage in solo matches, it became a big daddy in team games. As long as there was a support to protect him, once the ice hunter powered up, its ice arrows could shatter the skies and destroy the earth. Not only the squishy thief, even a grand paladin would have no way to survive beneath its arrows. Yue Wenle was very strong. In the China competition zone no, he was one of the most famous ADCs in the world. However, he was taking an ice hunter to solo against Wei Xiaos shadow thief, which was like hitting a stone with an egg. When faced with the loading interface, Wei Xiao was disappointed. Using the ice hunter to win against his shadow thief there was only one person in the world whod done that. That was Close from two years ago. Sigh, why did he have to encounter Close? During the winter vacation of his third year in high school, he really shouldnt have clicked in to watch the live broadcast of the global finals in a moment of curiosity! Wei Xiao, whose thoughts had wandered, caught some differences when he came face to face with this ice hunter. This ice hunter was very detailed! He seemed to know that Wei Xiao would stalk him when they were level one. His movements were extremely delicate, perfectly avoiding all possible angles of attack while simultaneously not missing a single soldier! The small soldiers were worth experience and money. Experience was used to upgrade and enhance the skills, and money was used to buy equipment to strengthen DPS. In MOBA type games, personal skills and awareness was important, but without economy, everything else was empty talk! The so-called individual players ability wasnt based on an illogical ability to take down a level ten when they were level one, but more focused on a professional players ability to seize and control resources, be able to farm more efficiently, and level up as quickly as possible. All of that plus their individual operations was what really made for a showy display. Wei Xiao was able to hold down professional players because he had a very unique talent when it came to snatching economy. Pressuring the lane, killing soldiers, controlling the jungle creeps, and even getting the last hit for a defense tower, were all details that he kept track of himself. Dont look down on the detailsCCeconomy was accumulated bit by bit just like this! Wei Xiaos first attack was only able to slightly glance off the ice hunter. At the same time, he also lost a chunk of health from an ice arrow. Not bad! Wei Xiao sat up straight. He calculated the time needed to clear the little creeps that would come out of the bushes to the left, but unexpectedly, the ice hunter shot out an icy cold arrow For the first time, Wei Xiao, who could control his own health and damage to the utmost, had been counter-calculated! His basic attack hadnt even made it when the little creep was stolen by the ice hunter! Only the last hit would count for experience and gold. Wei Xiao had worked busily for a good while, only to end up giving away all the benefits to someone else. Having experience in big competitions really makes a difference. Wei Xiao calmed down and continued looking for opportunities. His eyes remained fixed on the ice hunter, taking in his positioning, his operations, the way he linked skills, and calculated his CD (skill cooldown) time For some reason, he felt that there was a strong sense of familiarity. Two years ago, hed been shot to pieces by an ice hunter who was just like this. At the time, it had been Close. Now, it was Yue Wenle. It was two different people, but why were there so many similarities? There was only one answerCC As Closes teammate, Yue Wenle could solo with him however and whenever he wanted. Yue Wenles current play style must have been personally taught by Close! A fire erupted in Wei Xiaos heart. Damn it! The one thing he wanted but couldnt obtain, was something that was at another persons disposal! The author has something to say: God Lu, your familys little lunatic is eating vinegar hahahahahahahahahahaha Juurensha: WX, just join the team gdi Chapter 13: They only want a boyfriend Once this thought entered his mind, Wei Xiao looked at the ice hunter on his screen and found it to be like a thorn in his eye no matter how he looked at it! There was no way for Wei Xiao to remember everything from the 48 hours two years ago. However, the game where hed been hammered down by Closes ice arrow while he played a shadow thief was one he remembered very clearly. At the time, they had already soloed for a full day and night, and Wei Xiao, whod lost nearly 100 games, didnt even have the slightest intention of backing down at all. He would swiftly send Lu Feng another game invitation each time, and then quickly begin the next game. All the way until the 101th game, when Wei Xiao took the king of solo shadow thief, and Lu Feng on the opposing side took the little brother of solo ice hunter. At the time, Wei Xiao had stretched his head out and looked at Lu Feng, Whats the meaning of this? Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: Dont take it easy on me. Im not afraid of losing. Picking the ice hunter was simply looking down on him. He wasnt interested in this kind of solo game with an unequal playing ground. Despite staying up for an entire day and night, Lu Fengs eyes and eyebrows didnt carry many traces of fatigue. His lips lifted, Its taboo to underestimate your opponent. Wei Xiao pouted, This is solo! An ice hunter without a supports protection is even worse than a lane soldier. Lu Feng did not explain further, Start the game. Wei Xiao clicked start, but his mouth was still muttering complaints, I dont care, it doesnt count if I win this match. You have to continue soloing with me. On the other side of their opposing computer screens, Lu Feng couldnt see Wei Xiaos expression, but his voice couldnt help but turn soft, Okay. And then Wei Xiaoxiao was so shocked from his loss that his mouth dropped open, This, this Lu Feng glanced at him, Is the ice hunter weak? Wei Xiao was still engrossed in his shock, Weak Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: The ice hunter is very weak, but youre too strong. Youre strong at everything, f*ck, Close, how could you be so powerful! He stood up, his eyes locking on Lu Feng. Inside his gaze was undisguised heat, so hot that it made the tip of his heart burn. Bai Cai had said one thing right. Wei Xiao had really used him, then tossed him away. Although, this using had been unintentional. The fear of being dominated by an ice hunter two years ago once again pressed down on Wei Xiaos head. However, he wasnt a person who would be overwhelmed by fear. On the contrary, the more pressured he was, the braver he would become, and he only became more excited when he faced the strong. Ten minutes later, the ice hunter completed a three-piece set (three core pieces of equipment), and its DPS output instantly exploded. Even if Wei Xiaos economy wasnt behind, it was unfortunate that he couldnt even get close to the ice hunter despite having all-DPS gear. If his economy had been better, Wei Xiao could switch to defensive equipment and sneak his way over to attack the ice hunter. As long as he could use a combination of skills, he would definitely be able to kill him. Unfortunately, he wasnt able to snatch away any gold. He wasnt even able to snatch away a single dollar from this ice hunters hands! Wei Xiao was exceedingly familiar with the terrain for solo, but the ice hunter seemed to be more familiar with it than he was. Wei Xiao knew the shadow thief hero like the back of his hand, but the ice hunter on the opposite side could see through his thoughts completely. Was he really so strong?! Was growth this quick for players who spent a year under Close and competed in several big competitions?! Wei Xiaos desire for battle was aroused. He hadnt felt this kind of feeling in a long time: The blood in his entire body woke up, adrenaline surged, and his brain was unprecedentedly clear and bright, his five senses fully magnified. He couldnt hear any external sounds. He only heard the footsteps in the canyon, the rustle of the grass, and the sound of skill releases His fingers seemed to be directly connected to his brain. Every shake of his mouse, every press and rebound of the keyboard was extremely accurate and never felt cumbersome. He liked this kind of feeling. Hed always been searching for this feeling. The hot-blooded battle rush hed experienced two years ago when he fought against Close. Tense, exciting. This kind of excitement that mobilized all his nerves was the unyielding fighting spirit that could only be aroused when he met genuinely strong players! On the other side. Bai Cais scalp was tingling from watching. Although he wasnt by Wei Xiaos side, and although it was across the internet, he could already feel the crazy energy of the shadow thief just from looking at the screen. This was the boiling passion that could only be transmitted through the characters in the game. It was the surging fighting spirit that had been completely aroused and let loose. It was the passion of youth, the endless desire for victory! Bai Cai thought back to the days two years ago when hed been Wei Xiaos support, following him around to challenge all the big clubs. Arrogant, unbridled, reckless. At the time, theyd been like wildly growing seeds that had been planted in the soil, slicing through the quiet China competition zone with unstoppable momentum. Thats right. It was no wonder that Lu Feng had always kept a little lunatic like this in mind and never forgotten him in the past two years. There were many excellent players, but natural warriors could only be encountered by luck. Wei Xiao was like a sword, with the courage and ability to break through the haze! 28 minutes in. The battle situation was nearly settled. An ice hunter whod developed to such a stage wouldnt be afraid even if the shadow thief managed to sneak close. It could easily shoot the shadow thief down with two casual arrows. Victory and defeat had already been determined, and there was no suspense about the outcome. Bai Cai suddenly thought of something and spoke up, Oh, right! Wei Xiao also offered up an Easter egg tonight. Lu Feng stared at the thief on the screen, Easter egg? Bai Cai hurriedly said, Yes! This kid tossed down the gauntlet. Today, as long as anyone can win against him, hell be their training partner for life! How wonderful, God Lu was definitely going to win against Wei Xiao. This little bastard could be Captain Lus training partner for life! Bai Cai, who thought hed done a good thing, suddenly froze. What? What, what? There was a huge Defeat on the computer screen. God Lu lost? God Lu, who had obtained such a huge advantage and was just one step short of shattering Wei Xiaos resurrection crystal, had lost? How was that possible! In that mere second What happened?! The game ended, and they returned to the match room. The chat box popped up with Wei Xiaos words: Whats the matter? Why surrender? Bai Cai finally saw the light. It turned out that the captain had surrendered. No, wait why?! Why would he surrender?! He was just as confused as Wei Xiao. He could only watch on as Lu Feng typed three words: Get some rest. Then, he quit the room. Bai Cai: ??? What had happened? What the hell just happened?! Lu Feng stood up, picked up his sports water bottle, and said, You too. Get some sleep. Bai Cai couldnt keep himself from asking, Captain, why did you surrender? He was clearly about to win. If hed won, hed have locked in a lifelong training partner! Lu Feng spoke a sentence very calmly. Bai Cai froze. Lu Feng had just left when Bai Cais cell phone exploded. Wei Xiaos WeChat messages flew in one after anotherCC Whats going on? Yue Wenle left? Why did he surrender? Its not like laozi cant afford to lose! Bai Cai thought of Lu Fengs words and felt a serious headache. He picked up his cell phone, thought about it, and asked, Havent you figured it out yet? On the other side of the phone, Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment, then cursed like hed just been struck by lightning. He called Bai Cai, The ice hunter just now was Close? Bai Cai sighed, Yes. Wei Xiao didnt say anything for a long time. He clutched the cell phone tightly, and his voice trembled slightly, He why did he surrender. Two years ago, 48 hours. They had fought 144 matches, and Close had taken every game seriously. This time, why had he Bai Cai found it a little difficult to say out loud, It was my cheap mouth. Wei Xiao: What? Bai Cai said, I told him about the Easter egg. Wei Xiao was momentarily unable to figure it out. Bai Cai closed his eyes, and told Wei Xiao the words Lu Feng had left behindCC Captain Lu told me to tell you, he doesnt need a training partner. It was like Wei Xiao had pressed down on the mute button. There was no sound from the other end. Bai Cai felt a strange pang of heartache, Old Wei, you Beepbeepbeep, there was a busy tone from the phone. Wei Xiao had hung up. Bai Cai: Inside the single apartment. Wei Xiao, who hadnt felt tired despite staying up all night, collapsed onto the bed at this moment. The computer screen was still on, and he was alone in the empty room. There were only two sentences in the chat box. What the matter? Why surrender? Get some rest. CCCaptain Lu told me to tell you, he doesnt need a training partner. F*ck! Wei Xiao picked up the pillow and pressed it down against his forehead. That was Close. Their first time soloing after two years. Close surrendered. Because he didnt need a training partner. He didnt need him. Two years ago, hed flicked his hand and left. Being despised by others was something hed asked for. He understood all the reasons. His brain understood, but at this moment, Wei Xiaos heart still felt like it had been stabbed by a knife. He clutched tightly to the pillow, his knuckles prominent and white. It was he whod let Close down. What gave him the right to feel wronged now? Wei Xiao exhaled softly and stood up to take a shower. He hadnt turned on the water boiler ahead of time, and the water that came out was ice cold. Wei Xiao was chilled into shivering, and after washing up, he went back to his room. He might as well sleep. Hed be fine again after he woke up. Wei Xiao hugged Soybean, rubbed against his neck, and tried to go to sleep. Soybean seemed to be aware of its masters mood and was well-behaved for once. Wei Xiao couldnt fall asleep at all. The more he wanted to sleep, the more impossible it was to sleep. Those three words were on repeat whenever he closed his eyes. He didnt need, he didnt need, he didnt need. To hell with sleeping! Wei Xiao sat up. Doggy: Aroo? Wei Xiao stroked its head, Your daddys going to play games for a bit. Soybean followed him out of bed and curled up at his feet. Wei Xiao clicked to queue for a ranked match, wanting to become an emotionless rank pushing machine. The first game had just ended when his cell phone rang. Wei Xiao picked up his cell phone. It was a message from the accompanying player platform. LU: So early? Wei Xiao wasnt in the mood to be an accompanying player, but hed already collected the money and had to be dedicated to his job, Good morning, boss. Do you want to play. The other side paused for a moment, You were up all night? Wei Xiao was expressionless as he typed, No way, just woke up ^_^. LU: Alright, lets play for a while. Wei Xiao: Kay. Ill switch accounts. If Close didnt need him, then forget it. There would always be someone who needed him. Look, his two million boss really needed him! Wei Xiao told himself that he couldnt let his personal emotions affect his work, but unfortunately, his mood wasnt so easily controlled. No matter how hard he tried, he was unable to improve the atmosphere. After the third game ended, LU asked him, Bad mood? Wei Xiaos mood was so bad it was rotten. No. LU: Did something happen? Sigh, the boss was rich and caring. He was a good person. Wei Xiao felt really apologetic, Sorry, it affected you. These three games dont count. LU: Its okay. You played very well, weve been winning. Wei Xiao typed, Winning is a given. Youre spending money for entertainment. I shouldnt influence your mood. LU: Its not so serious, but its better to say it if theres something on your mind. Of course, thats only if you dont mind. Wei Xiaos heart was mired in depression. He really didnt mind chatting about it with this anonymous internet friend, Its a small matter LU: Hm? Wei Xiao thought about it for a moment, then used another method to express his thoughts, Its like this well, I accompanied my girlfriend to do her homework, and then when we came to a certain problem, I told her that if she could answer it, I would be her tutor for a lifetime. But then, she gave up on the problem and said that she didnt need that. After he finished, Wei Xiao felt that he was simply a genius. Hed managed to explain this matter so clearly without disclosing any information at all! FTW base. Lu Feng stared at the chat box in surprise for a moment. He shook his head and laughed quietly, then typed, You misunderstood. Wei Xiao: How so? LU: They dont need a tutor because they only want a boyfriend. sponsored post C thanks to AnnaBanana, smolgingerfox, con, and somebody for the coffees! Juurensha: Woooow LF, so smooth. xiin: its a pity that WX is still clueless, though his sadness made me really wanna hug him. poor baby~ Chapter 14: Bai Cai: Its a teammate, you fool! Wei Xiao was confused for a moment. Was that so? Close didnt need a training partner, and instead needed a ah, wait! Wei Xiao instantly became happy, Boss, you really know how to talk. Tell me more. Lu Feng followed the nonsense example hed given before and added, This shows that in their mind, youre more important than a tutor. Wei Xiao: Hey, that makes sense. Most of the gloom in his heart and mind was swept away, and his brain was clear. His thoughts had indeed gone in the wrong direction. It wasnt like how LU had said, but hed forgotten his own hidden identity. From Closes point of view, the person whod soloed with him was just a stranger called One Lamp Grandmaster. The one Close didnt need was just One Lamp Grandmaster, how was that related to him as Wei Xiao? Unless Old Bai had revealed his hidden identity! Wei Xiao pressed down the urge to demand answers and said patiently, Come on then, lets continue ranking. Boss was such a good person, he had to repay him properly! LU: You didnt sleep well because of your girlfriend, right? Go sleep first. Wei Xiao: Its okay. Im used to staying up late. LU: Go sleep. It was two simple words, but it inexplicably gave Wei Xiao a familiar feeling. Although his real contact with Lu Feng had only lasted for three days and three nights, the density of their contact had led to him having a very good understanding of Lu Feng. For example, the way he always meant what he said It made people Really want to provoke him! Wei Xiao was cheeky, Boss, your tone really sounds like my girlfriend. LU: Wei Xiao felt that hed taken advantage of Lu Feng and felt inexplicably delighted, Really, shes super domineering and loves to manage people. Lu Feng stared at that line of words for a long time, You dont like it? Wei Xiao: Thats not the case. Her mouth is fierce, but in fact, her heart is very soft. Otherwise, why would he accompany a newbie like him to solo for 48 hours, and let him hold him as he liked while they slept for 24 hours? Tsk, it was the first time hed slept with anyone else in his life. From this point of view, calling Close his girlfriend once was actually quite reasonable and justified. Lu Feng looked down. His hands typed out one line on the keyboardCCthen why did you leave. Of course, it was impossible for him to send this out. He pressed the cancel button and changed it to, I have something to do over here. Im logging off first. Wei Xiao hadnt played around with him enough and was quite regretful, Thats it? LU: Mm. Wei Xiao couldnt help making another impudent comment, I wont lie, your cold mm is very similar to hers. LU: Wei Xiao seemed to sense that hed been too impudent and hurriedly explained, About that, Im not teasing you, ah Im justcaught up in the moment. Look, I have a girlfriend, Im a straight man He just had a trashy mouth. LU: I know. Then, he quit the team room. Wei Xiao stared at those two words for a moment, and there was a row of question marks in his headCC Boss, what do you know? But he was already gone, and there was no way to ask. Wei Xiao was soon preoccupied by the big notion he had in his mind. He made a call straight to the FTW base. Bai Cai, whod just bathed, changed, eaten breakfast, and gotten into bed, F*ck! Wei Xiao: Comrade Bai Cai, Ill ask and you answer. If you lie to me, Ill send you up to the hot search in the next second. The topics Glory god-level support God Bai and Gossip Emperor put together would definitely be very popular. How could Brother Cai sleep? He just wanted to fight desperately with a certain piece of work over the phone. What madness are you on about now? Could it be that hed been overstimulated by that sentence from Close and wanted to mutually self-destruct with him? But the problem was, the one whod stimulated him was Close! Why was Wei Xiao coming over to pull him in too?! Wei Xiao: How did Close know that that thief was me? His question was phrased very cleverly. He didnt ask if Close knew or not, and instead directly asked how. Bai Cai, who hadnt slept all night and then given a scare by him, fell into the trap. He he Wei Xiao sneered. Bai Cai trembled, He didnt know at first, but he recognized you halfway through the game! F*ck, laozi was so smart. He could even smooth out something like this. Wei Xiao paused for a moment. There was some logic to this cabbages words Those 48 hours of solo between him and Close had left him unable to forget Close. It must also be vivid in Closes memories, too. Although two years had passed, it was very hard to change ones personal style. In particular, he was also stimulated by Close, and that no-holds-barred conduct of his was difficult to hide. Bai Cai took the opportunity to clear his name, I really didnt sell you out. Would I dare? I was also really shocked. When the two of you first started, the captain said, This is Wei Xiao, right., my god, I was almost scared into peeing my pants, brother! Wei Xiao: It was a very graphic description. In fact, Bai Cai was really speaking a big truth from his heart. It was just that hed changed the scene and timing, The captain asked with so much certainty. Tell me, how was I supposed to answer? It would be useless even if I didnt say anything! He already knew the answer! The corner of Wei Xiaos mouth curved a little, He really recognized me at a glance? Bai Cai: Really. Its more true and genuine than gold and silver. The corner of Wei Xiaos mouth drooped again, Then, why did he say that last sentence to me? Bai Cai: ! Hed forgotten about that mess. Wei Xiao lowered his voice and simulated Lu Fengs cold voice, Tell Wei Xiao, I dont need a training partner. Bai Cai: It was really motherf*cking similar! Cough. Bai Cai did feel a bit of heartache for Wei Xiao regarding this. He persuaded him, Dont overthink it, I think Wei Xiao: Hm? Bai Cai had already thought about what to say while he was taking a bath, Think about it, at the time, the captain was using Old Yues account. If hed really won, then wouldnt you have to become Yue Wenles lifetime training partner? Wei Xiao wouldnt be misled like this, With you as witness, if he really wanted me, would I really not accompany him? Bai Cai: Can you f*cking use human words! Speaking of which. Wei Xiao caught onto the key point, Why did Close have to pretend to be God Le? Bai Cai was really afraid of this piece of works sharp intuition! He could only forge on ahead, Who is our God Lu?! If ordinary people hear that theyre soloing with him, wouldnt they be scared into losing half their wits? Wei Xiao considered it, Thats true. There arent that many brave and upright men like me out there. The corner of Bai Cais lips was twitching, but he could only go along with him in order to continue living, Thats right. After talking back and forth, Close just doesnt think much of me. Wei Xiao sighed. Bai Cai racked his brains and couldnt figure out how to comfort him, Thats not it Say, do you think that theres a possibility that, Wei Xiao thought of what LU had said and asked Bai Cai, Close doesnt need me to be his training partner, but needs me to do something else instead? Bai Cai: Ah? Wei Xiao cleared his throat and explained, Its like this. I was just accompanying my boss to rank. My boss is very considerate and kind, and he comforted me when he saw that my mood wasnt right. I couldnt say that I was given a hit by Close, so I made up a reason and said that I argued with my girlfriend Bai Cais face was mystified as he listened to this. Holy shit, what was f*cking up with this? If his brain hadnt broken down, then Wei Xiaos boss was his God Lu! You brat, you lied about God Lu being your girlfriend in front of God Lu? This, this Wei Xiao hinted, Dont you think that what my boss said is quite reasonable? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Old Bai? Is the signal bad? The signal really wasnt very good. Bai Cai felt that he needed to plug an antenna into his head in order to properly receive this amazing amount of information. CCDidnt need a tutor because they only wanted a boyfriend. Was this really f*cking something that their great demon king had said?! Bai Cai just wanted to retire from the jianghu (delete his alt account) now. His brain was dirty and unclean, and he was not worthy of writing love and hate stories for the little girl fans of the Glory circle! Wei Xiao: Whats the matter with your base? Its a proper castle, yet it doesnt even have signal? Bai Cai: I think Wei Xiao secretly hinted at him, Say, if Close doesnt need a training partner, does it mean he needs a Bai Cai shuddered, Its impossible for it to be a boyfriend! Wei Xiao: What are you thinking about? Im talking about an opponent, an equal, well-matched opponent! Its not that Im boasting, but I feel that I have more potential than Old G. The second half of the sentence was a little sour. Brother Cai finally came back to his senses. His confused mind seized onto this one reliable thing in the chaos and relied on it to find his way out. Its not an opponent. Bai Cais heart was finally steady, Its a teammate, you fool! Wei Xiao was stunned. Bai Cai had thought it through completely. He now understood the situation thoroughly and was fully on board, Does God Lu need an opponent? He can get a whole handful of them with a single grab in the world competitions, okay? What he needs is a teammate! Teammate, got it? Close is calling for you to come back! It took a long time for Wei Xiao to find his voice again, Youre the one thats overthinking it Bai Cai sneered, Thats fine. Ill go and find the captain in a bit and ask him face to face. Wei Xiao: Dont! Bai Cai: Didnt you say I was overthinking it? It was rare for Wei Xiao to be at a loss for words. He choked for a while, then said, I wont play professionally. Bai Cai rolled his eyes. Wei Xiao: Look, its already January. Im about to go back to school. It wasnt easy for me to get a score of 985. How could I stop studying just like that? It was fine if he didnt say it, but Bai Cais heart felt stifled as soon as it was said. It was enough that this kids talent for games was really high. He was even a learning bully. Comparing people with people really made one angry! Honestly, you not going back to school is the right thing to do. Someone like you imparting knowledge and educating the people? Wei Xiao had entered a well-known teaching university. Thinking of how this piece of work would stand in front of a podium in the future, Bai Cai just felt that he might as well come and play professional e-sports so as to save the motherlands flowers from disaster. Wei Xiao: What do you know?! Im very suitable to be a teacher. If they have to endure social beatings in advance, it wont hurt when theyre beaten up later. Bai Cai was too lazy to get into this with him, Dont use school as an excuse. If you want to suspend school, FTW can provide you with one-stop service for that. Wei Xiao yawned, Ah, its not early anymore. Im going to sleep. Bai Cai: You There was a click. The other side had hung up. Wei Xiao dropped his cell phone, hugged the huskys big head and rubbed it again and again. Close wants me to be his teammate? And he wants to sign me? Soybean: Ao! Wei Xiao patted his big head, You dont understand sh*t. But the corner of his lips couldnt help but lift up. Sleep. Wei Xiao released Soybean and drilled into bed. This time, he fell asleep and slept very soundly. He didnt even dream. It was already six in the afternoon by the time he woke up. Bai Cai sent him a WeChat message, Come play doubles. Wei Xiao had just finished getting something to eat. He replied, Let me first see if my boss is around or not. Bai Cai glanced at the captain in the training room and thought to himself: He definitely isnt there. Wei Xiao: The boss isnt online. Lets do it. Bai Cai reminded him, Im streaming. Watch your mouth a bit. Wei Xiao: Got it. It wasnt the first time Bai Cai had taken Wei Xiao with him while streaming. His fans started filling up the scrolling comments as soon as they saw Wei Xiaos ID. The jungler king is here. Caicai, quickly have him take thief! Who exactly is this friend of Caicais? Theyre really good and very doting. Yeah, yeah. Hes the only one who dares to let our Caicai play mid-lane! They key point is that he even carries Caicai! As a support king, Bai Cai had extremely obvious shortcomings. For example, he couldnt play mage-type heroes. However, that didnt prevent Brother Cai from having a heart that wanted to carry, so he would occasionally pick a mage hero in order to experience the excitement. In these kinds of high-level ranked games, Brother Cais mage was notoriously cancerous. His teammates would want to die as soon as it was taken out. It was only when he played doubles with Wei Xiao that there was even such a thing as a win rate. Bai Cai had just finished choosing his hero when his scrolling comments exploded. Holy shit! Holy shit holy shit holy shit! Countless shocked emoticons were mixed in with the most important sentence, Brother Cai, you and God Lu have crashed cars! Bai Cai saw it at a glance, Is it so coincidental? The scrolling comments piled up, God Ning is streaming. Hes double queueing with our God Lu! What a deal, what a deal! Fratricide between teammates or something is the most exciting! Ning Zhehan hadnt been in the team for long, and his live broadcast popularity wasnt high enough. In any case, teammates needed to go through a running-in period. Xiang Liu took advantage of the time when Lu Feng and Ning Zhehan were playing doubles and turned on the live stream for Little Ning so that he could gain some popularity at the same time. They hadnt expected to end up matched against Bai Cai and Wei Xiao. The author has something to say: Whats this called, enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road? hahahahaha Ning Zhehan: Im not going to lie, Im a little scared [shiver] Juurensha: Bai Cai, God Lu definitely wants a bf apricot: In the last chapter, I was surprised the misunderstanding had been resolved so quickly. I was mistaken xiin: *cuddling her dogs big head and squealing just like WX* Chapter 15: No wonder Caicai cheated. I would do it for this man too! Of course, Wei Xiao, who couldnt see the scrolling comments, didnt know who was on the opposing side. They couldnt see their opponents IDs in the hero selection interface. Wei Xiao would only find out after they entered the game. Bai Cai was currently regretting everything. He regretted starting up his live broadcast and even regretted that his hands had acted cheap, and hed snatched up the mage. It was obvious even if he thought with his eyes closed that this would be a bloody slaughter arena. Why had he sought death for himself and taken the mid-lane? Wasnt it great being alive?! He just had to go up and become the soul beneath the captains knife! Wei Xiao was still choosing his hero, Old Bai, do you want to win? Bai Cai: To hell with winning! The scrolling comments had already exploded, Ahhhhh, its really true love between the jungler king and our Caicai! I know, the jungler king is going to show off, and carry our Caicai! Unfortunately, this pair of ill-fated lovers met the great demon king. Feeling heartache for my vegetable. Full of heartache. Brushing a round of deep water torpedoes to comfort my little cub. One deep water torpedo cost 100 yuan. In the blink of an eye, Bai Cai had already received over a dozen and didnt know whether to cry or cry even harder! Hey, do you want to play mid-lane? Bai Cai asked Wei Xiao. The hero selection interface could be used to exchange heroes. Bai Cais desire for survival burst out, and he tried to let Wei Xiao experience life beneath the captains big sword. Wei Xiao had recently been deeply addicted to playing thieves and had already locked it in, What, you want to be a jungler? Bai Cai: Cant your hands be a little slower?! Wei Xiao was very doting towards the Bai Cai who was streaming, Im fine with anything. You can play whatever you like. The scrolling comments was full of another series of ahhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhh, aooooooo. Bai Cai considered it for a while and couldnt determine if it was better to be cut to death by the captain as a mage, or smeared all over the floor as a jungler by the captain. He was a good and proper support. Why didnt he play the hero he was best at?! Sure enough Healers shouldnt always be thinking about killing! Just keep it like this. Bai Cai thought to himself that for better or worse, he could still figure out how to play an ice mage. If he was really given a shadow thief, hed probably end up feeding kills until his teammates afked. Wei Xiao: Kay. Bai Cai saw that they were about to enter the game and finally reminded him, The other side has God Lu. Wei Xiao froze. There was no way to type when they waited for the canyon to load. Because Bai Cai was streaming, Wei Xiao also hadnt turned on his voice chat. Bai Cai had turned his voice chat on, but there was no need for him to say more. The ID of the opposite side was already displayed on the loading page. They were all professional league certified main accounts with unique namesCC FTW.Close, FTW.Silvery. Close was Lu Feng, and Silvery was Ning Zhehan. Wei Xiaos eyes narrowed slightly. In the moment when they entered the game, hed already typed out three words, What a coincidence. Bai Cai hinted at him, Calm down a bit. Dont let it get to your head, old brother, Im streaming! Wei Xiao was calm and composed, Dont worry. Ill come to the mid-lane often to check in on you. There was another series of oohs and ahhs on the scrolling commentsCC Its so tragic for the jungler king, he encountered a real demon king! Yingyingying, jungler king, its useless for you to go to the mid-lane. Any mage that has managed to survive beneath our God Lus blade has already been sealed as a god! Our Brother Cai is a healer king who loves peace. Why does he have to go through this slaughter hell? I can smell the deep taste of an abusive, sadistic love from my Lu Bai CP. What is this? Is it the scene for domestic violence?! Double adultery, crashing together, and then you die or I live? Hey, how thrilling. Let me give my cub another wave of torpedoes~ Bai Cai glanced at the scrolling comments and thought to himself Abusive love did exist, the domestic violence scene was there too, and the double adultery and crashing together might be taking place too, but the problem was that the protagonist wasnt him! He, Bai Cai, was going to die for nothing, okay?! Ning Zhehan who was on the opposing side had also noticed Bai Cai. He even used the public channel to greet him, Brother Cai! Bai Cai: Ning Zhehan: Whos queueing with you for doubles? Bai Cai: Scrolling comments: Wow, Caicai is ignoring Ningning. My vegetable is eating vinegar! Bai Cai: The start of a 5v5 match was very different from a solo game. This was a team game, and each of the five people in both teams had a clear division of labor. They each had their own development path and responsibilities. For example, the mid-lane mages Bai Cai and Ning Zhehan faced each other in the middle lane, looking for opportunities to engage each other. Wei Xiao and Lu Feng were junglers, and their task was to snatch up resources in the jungle. Under normal circumstances, the first two levels in a high-ranked game were relatively safe, and the most likely encounter would be a small skirmish in the jungle. They would test each other out, gain a small advantage, and back off. But Wei Xiao was different. Just when Ning Zhehan was clearing up soldiers while typing to Bai Cai and chatting, a streak of red light flashed slightly, and there was a whizzing sound effect. Ning Zhehan had been controlled! This Although Ning Zhehan had taken the game too lightly, many reactions had already developed into muscle memory. He instantly clicked on Purify in order to escape. However, the thief whod now revealed himself was even fiercer than hed been when he was invisible. He flashed forward and used an auto-attack to kill off Ning Zhehan. Ning Zhehan: !!! The scrolling comments exploded, Oh, my mother, the jungler king is so handsome! No wonder Caicai cheated. I would do it for this man too! Killing a professional player at the start of a game. Are the casual jungler players so amazing now?! At the same timeCC First Blood. The one whod taken first blood wasnt Wei Xiao, and the one whod given the first blood wasnt Ning Zhehan. Although Ning Zhehan had toppled to the ground, Bai Cai, who was across from him, had died a little earlier than he had. Even if it was only zero point something seconds earlier, he had very solidly delivered the first blood to his own captain. If the scrolling comments had exploded earlier, then they were now in a crazed frenzy. Our Captain Lu is still the most ruthless. Who can tell me how my Cai died??? The great demon king is worthy of his name, he can even be so cruel to his little wife! Domestic violence scene, real proof! I was wrong, I was really wrong. Captain Lu, you are always the great demon king gong in my heart. Caicai shouldnt have cheated, no matter how handsome or how sweet the jungler king is, he still shouldnt have cheated! Bai Cai glanced at the scrolling comments as he rushed back to the middle lane after resurrecting and wanted to holler, What the hell do you all know?! Aaahhhhhh! How could the great demon king have a little wife? The only thing in the great demon kings eyes was a little lunatic! After dying twice, Little Ning on the opposite side suddenly came to a realization, Grandmaster?! The simple sharpness of the attacks, the precision of the positioning, this immortal-like control over his health Ning Zhehan, whod paid 10,000 yuan to die under his knife still remembered this feeling! The scrolling comments on Ning Zhehans side had also exploded completely. At first it wasCC My God Lu is so doting, Baby Ning, youre so fortunate. Whoa, this jungler on the other side has some skill. No wait, is this the level of a rookie king? Killed so easily in a single fight with a random player? Wake up, can a casual player who can reach this stage and play doubles games with a professional player be an ordinary casual player?! Then, it wasCC What the hell is a grandmaster? Which professional player in the Glory circle has the nickname grandmaster? Speaking of which, Ive heard of a secret rumor: its said that theres a mysterious figure among the professional players Ning Zhehan realized that hed said the wrong thing and didnt dare speak again. However, his eyes were bright, and he still ran happily down the middle lane despite getting killed four times. As for the Bai Cai who was opposite him, his heart had already turned to ashes long ago. Middle lane? Mage? Ice mage? He never wanted to play this hero in his life again! It had to be said that this game was incredibly strange. The top lane and bottom lanes were extremely peaceful. Everyone cleared their own soldiers and never tried to rush in. Even the support didnt head over to take a look and remained honestly in the bottom lane. The audience in the scrolling comments seriously suspected that these three people had dragged the map over to watch the ongoing play. Those two lanes may be calm, but the middle lane was like hell on earth! The junglers on both sides were absolutely radical fighters. After they finished clearing out a wave of jungle creeps, theyd come over and charge in for the kill. Both of them stared at the other partys mage and didnt hesitate to attack. The minute their blades went up, what came back down would be a head. What made it worse was, they went back into hiding after killing each others mages. Although the thief was a hero where one had to wait for cooldowns after using a set of skills and doing a burst of damage, using all your skills on a mage How should he say it? Sure enough, there were countless squishy mage corpses piled up in every junglers heart! Slowly, the atmosphere of the scrolling comments changedCC I dont know why, but Im starting to smell hints of a cult? Yes, yes, yes, there arent many junglers who can compete on an even playing field with our God Lu. Although I dont know exactly who this grandmaster is, I still want to spend one second supporting this cult. Reasonably speaking, this is a little easy to get behind. Love rivals encountering each other, emotions and feelings collide? My vegetable is green now! When is my vegetable not green? If my vegetable isnt green, how could we call him Brother Cai? Its true that Close is a heartthrob, and its also true that the Glory circle is full of God Lus harem members. Why is this damned great demon king and this casual player so tempting together! Looking at the scrolling comments, Bai Cai was roaring insideCC What was this all about? Even the eight oclock soap operas arent as daring with their ideas as you guys are! Finally, Bai Cai and Wei Xiaos team lost. Nothing could be done about it. It was a team of five people, three of whom were eating melon seeds and watching the show. Bai Cais mage was played at a level where even his die-hard fans all agreed that it hurt their eyes. The only one who played well was Wei Xiao, and it was really impossible for a single person to turn the tables. On Ning Zhehans side, although his teammates were also watching the show, that didnt stop Ning Zhehans real talent and practical experience from playing out. Even if Wei Xiao killed him ten times, his mentality hadnt collapsed, and he was able to find opportunities to kill Bai Cai on his own. Wei Xiao finally encountered Lu Feng in the jungle. There was no suspense. Wei Xiao ended up flattened beneath Lu Fengs blade. Bai Cai was pressured by Ning Zhehan. Wei Xiao was pressured by Lu Feng. There was no hope for winning no matter how one looked at it. The audience in the scrolling comments didnt concern themselves with this. They were extremely delighted, Amazing! This was too f*cking wonderful! They did their best, the jungler king really did his best! Caicai, your gay friend is really good. Our FTW is short on people, why dont you invite that little brother over? The problem is that FTW isnt short on junglers. With the jungler kings level of play, playing the top lane shouldnt be a problem, right! Daydreaming for a moment, if the jungler king joins the team, my vegetables old love and new love will both be there, tsk tsk, quickly make it happen! Bai Cais heart felt very tired. Although theyd only played one game, he already wanted to go have a rest. However, it was what happened after that that made him collapse even further. A message popped up on their team interface. FTW.Close requests to join. Bai Cai: What? The scrolling comments spiraled up to the sky, My god aahhhhhhhhh, God Lu tossed Little Ningning away and came to comfort our Brother Cai! Lu Bai is real! Its really, absolutely true! Im crying, Im crying, this old maiden is gnawing on real candy! How could Bai Cai reject it? He could only click on accept. The team went from two people to three. Bai Cais profile image was a candle. The reason he used it was because he wanted to light candles for the other side. Who couldve known that he would be reduced to lighting candles for himself? Sure enough, what goes around comes around! FTW.Close: Make me the room master. Bai Cai: Yes, yes. At this moment, the scrolling comments were still full of frenzied screaming, and they were all incredibly excited by this wonderful scene. The next secondCC Hundreds of question marks appeared in the scrolling comments. ??????? The God Lu whod become the master of the room The first thing he did was actually to kick Brother Cai out of the room? Lu Feng and Wei Xiao werent streaming. Nobody knew what was going on in the team room. Bai Cai, whod been kicked out, Dont ask. He was already dead. Juurensha: Our poor vegetable, he goes through so much. xiin: private room heeheeeee Chapter 16: Wei Xiao, kiss kiss me, I love you Bai Cai was a support. It was all due to his shamelessness that he was able to gain so much popularity in his live broadcast room. Professional players were all like this. The other positions could all show off enough to reach the heavens, but for support players, the most important thing was stability and not bursts of amazing gameplay. Brother Cai was very stable. He sat very firmly in the empress seat of the great demon kings throne, relying on indulging the little sister fans imaginations to ܳ and send himself up until he reached the popularity he had today. Now Brother Cai experienced what it meant to have it backfire. Caicai! Your old gong has run off with your new lover! The great demon king kicked away the empress and abducted his love rival? This circle is really messy, I dont have enough brainpower to keep up Bai Cai simply closed the scrolling comments and played dead. Ning Zhehan sent over a team request. Bai Cai accepted it. Little Ning: Brother Cai! Bai Cai: Mm. Brother Feng had something to do and told me to double queue with you first. Okay. Bai Cai didnt even need to look at the scrolling comments to know what they were sayingCC The out of favor team of two? A story between four people. Are we supporting the wrong CP? There was a more rational one, God Lu cant really want to sign this casual king, right? Holy crap, maybe! Where exactly did this jungler king come from? Someone on Weibo is digging, this One Lamp Grandmaster is really damned amazing It was a pity that Bai Cai had closed the scrolling comments. Otherwise, he would definitely have stopped his live stream early and gone onto Weibo to guide public opinion. Unfortunately, he was engrossed in his livestream for a long time. By the time he was done, One Lamp Grandmaster was already up on the hot search. This was something for later. At this moment, Wei Xiaoxiao was well and truly flustered. Wei Xiao was someone who hadnt been scared of anyone in his 19 years of life. When he was a child, hed been invincible as he played all over the school yard. As he grew up, he became both the school bully and the learning bully. Later, he became addicted to gaming, but he was also able to kill gods when he encountered gods, and kill buddhas when he encountered buddhas. Until he kicked an iron plate called Lu Feng. Even when hed lost for 48 hours straight, Wei Xiao hadnt been afraid. Instead, hed been full of fighting spirit and dreams of winning against him. But, hed run away. At a time like that, when Lu Feng had been full of appreciation and expectations for him, hed left. It wasnt so much that he was scared of Lu Feng. It was more that he felt guilt and self-reproach. If one had to be metaphorical about his current mood, then it was probably like a reunion between a scum man whod run off after having sex and his ex-girlfriend. Wei Xiao was the scum man. Lu Feng was the ex-girlfriend. F*ck! Wei Xiao had struck himself so thoroughly with lightning that he was charred outside and crispy inside. Can you hear me? Lu Feng turned on the voice channel. Wei Xiao: ! Although it was two years later, he was no stranger to Lu Fengs voice. After all, hed watched all the FTW competitions over the past two years and listened to all of Lu Fengs interviews. Hed even squatted in his live broadcast studio and given him quite a few gifts even though Lu Feng seldom spoke. I can hear you. Wei Xiao was very careful when he spoke. Lu Feng didnt say anything unnecessary, Ill start, then. He chose to start the game in anonymous mode. Wei Xiao: Okay. The interface began to search for players. Wei Xiao, who was usually bursting with words, was now as well behaved as a quail. Of course, this didnt affect the crazy storm in his headCC What did this mean? What did Close mean by this?! Driving out Bai Cai and queuing for doubles with him. Was he in trouble or was he in trouble?! If Lu Feng really asked about the matter from two years ago Where was he supposed to get a New Oriental diploma from if Lu Feng wanted to see?! Becoming a chef or whatever, if Wei Xiao really had that kind of dream, then he wouldnt need to nibble on bread every day! The higher their rankings, the more difficult it was to match with other players. In order to carry Bai Cai, Wei Xiao had used an alt account that was ranked 500th or so, but this couldnt block Lu Fengs high ranking. On average, the matching time was very slow. One minute, two minutes, three minutes After three minutes of silence, Wei Xiao couldnt hold back anymore. Wei Xiao: So Lu Feng: No solo. Wei Xiao: How had he known he was going to say that?! Lu Feng: Weve never played 5v5 together, right. Wei Xiao paused, No. In fact, they had. During one off-season, Lu Fengs live broadcast studio had held an event where they drew fans for a 5v5 game. Wei Xiao had been lucky enough to win the draw, and had even used a voice changer to act as a little sister and play as Lu Fengs support. Lu Feng: We have? Wei Xiao: ! This person must have installed a lie detector in his heart. How could he be so sharp! No way. Wei Xiao didnt want to expose that kind of brain-damaged black history and began to talk nonsense, Wont the opposite side end up self-destructing their crystal if we queue for doubles together? Lu Feng: Not necessarily. Wei Xiaos desire to win instantly rose up, 100%. If I dont hammer them until they enter seclusion, Ill He was just about to throw down the verbal gauntlet when he seemed to become aware of the risks and hurriedly shut up. Just then, they were finally matched up with other players and entered the game. Dangerous, dangerous. Wei Xiao reminded himself that if he spoke less, hed end up in less trouble; if he didnt speak, hed be in no trouble, so he should shut up! Lu Feng didnt follow up on his words and only asked him, What position are you playing? Glory had five positions: top-lane, mid-lane, jungler, bottom lane, support. Wei Xiao was best at the jungler position, of course, but Lu Feng was the number one jungler in China. The two of them both played the same position. Wei Xiao: I can do anything. After saying so, he realized that hed been unable to control his mouth once again and changed it to, I mean, Im okay with anything. Lu Feng laughed lightly, I know you can do anything. Wei Xiao: Being told that he could do anything by the one that the entire world recognized as being all-powerful, how come it made his thick skin feel a little hot?! In fact Im not good at everything. Its just being proficient with 11 heroes and 130 talent specs. 130? Its clearly 140 talent specs f*ck! Wei Xiao finally realized. There were now 140 talent specs in Glory, but there had only been 130 two years ago. Lu Fengs words were clearly repeating Wei Xiaos trash talk from two years ago. He still remembered. Wei Xiao felt Close might have a tiny bit more anger in his heart than hed thought. You play jungler, then. Lu Feng said. Wei Xiao really wanted to control his own mouth, Dont do that, if I play jungler, itll be too easy to win. Lu Feng: Then Ill play it? Wei Xiao choked. Alright then, it wont even be about winning if you play as a jungler. The other side wont even have any kind of game experience! Wei Xiao picked the thief while muttering, Thats why I was saying, why rank? Solo is much more interesting. Lu Feng said nothing and took an undead warrior. Wei Xiao wasnt that surprised. Although Lu Feng could do anything, he still had some slight tendencies. Compared with remote poke heroes, Lu Feng was better at the close combat assault heroes. He was best at the assassin types, followed by warriors. Of course, he was also good at melee mages and short-ranged hunters. When the game began, Wei Xiao was a little absent-minded. He didnt look down on team games. In fact, he really loved 5v5. Leading a team to victory was very exciting, and he really liked it. Otherwise, he wouldnt have led the youth training team to fight everywhere two years ago. He just didnt want to see Lu Feng play 5v5. To put it bluntly, he felt that the 5v5 canyon shackled Lu Feng. A man who could clearly play at a level that reached the heavens was forcibly contained within a narrow cage. It made people angry when they saw it. Lu Feng was very strong, but his teammates couldnt keep up. It wasnt that obvious in domestic games, but once they hit the grand finals where there were strong opponents everywhere, FTWs weakness became all too clear. Lu Feng had to cater to his teammates and didnt have any way to compete with his opponents. If Lu Feng let loose, it would cause the entire team to lose coordination, and FTWs performance would become even worse. The haters often used this point to flame Lu Feng, saying that he was the cancer of the team, and the number one at being a round peg in a square hole. They begged for him to hurry up and give up the team competitions, and let the FTW team off. Wei Xiao got angry whenever he saw stuff like that. Hed lobbed back several chunks of text, leaving the haters with blue noses and swollen faces, but they set their teeth into one point and refused to let goCC If your Close has the ability, then bring back a team championship! What use is an individual championship?! Its only stupid fans who are praising him to the sky! If there was no individual championship from Close, then the China competition zone would really have lost until even their underpants were gone, okay?! Thinking about it made him angry, and Wei Xiaos attacks at the start of the game were inevitably more fierce. The gunner on the opposite side whod been caught and killed twice suffered a bit of a mental breakdown: No way whats the deal with this jungler? Did laozi match up with Close? Because theyd picked anonymous mode, the players who hadnt queued in with them couldnt see their opponents IDs and would see a codename instead. You really did match with Close, but hes playing the undead warrior. Wei Xiao typed out on the public channel, Be good, daddy loves you. The gunner on the other side: Damn it, you just wait! Later on, the gunner really managed to develop and indeed dealt some damage. It was very difficult for Wei Xiao to bypass the other sides support and cut him down, butCC Your sides undead warrior has killed the opposing sides artillery gunner. Wei Xiao couldnt cut his way in, but the undead warrior whod remained silent as he developed and could stand up tall in the second half of the game then became the real daddy of the entire map. Killing spree! Rampage! Invincible! Dominating! Legendary! Amidst a series of system announcements, Lu Feng used the undead warrior to finish off the other sides resurrection crystal. When they returned to the team room interface, Lu Feng: Top-lane is quite fun. Wei Xiao: You had fun, but what about my gaming experience?! Lu Feng was in a pretty good mood, Continue? Although Wei Xiao had pretty much done nothing for the second half of the game, hed still had a lot of fun playing, Go to the international server? They should go big if they were going to play. Lu Feng: Okay. You play jungler. Wei Xiao: No problem! Wei Xiao was just about to leave the room when Lu Feng spoke again, Add me on WeChat. Wei Xiaos heart leapt. Lu Feng was very reasonable, Ill send the room link on WeChat. That made sense, they werent even friends on the international server. If they wanted to queue together, they could only invite each other through a room link. Wei Xiao paused for a moment and typed out his own WeChat account ID, WX7758521. Lu Feng slowly read it out loud, Wei Xiao, kiss kiss me, I love you? Wei Xiao: F*ck! After exiting the room, Wei Xiaos cell phone immediately had a new friend application. Seeing the name Close, he closed his eyes and approved it. It was impossible for him to play professionally. But being able to play queued games with Close Lu Feng soon sent over a room link. Wei Xiao clicked in, and the two of them went to the international server. The international server was much fiercer than the domestic one, especially when it came to ranked games. The top 300 were almost all professional players, so they could meet celebrities in any random match. Lu Feng continued to use anonymous mode, and this time, it didnt take long for them to enter a new game. Wei Xiao played a jungler, and Lu Feng continued to play top-lane. These two positions werent very suitable for double queueing, because there wasnt much cooperation between the two positions in the early stage of the game. The top-lane position was also called the single lane because it was very lonely. Most of the time, the jungler would go for the mid-lane or bottom lane heroes. If they could maim the c-position, the greater part of the game was already won. The top-laners task was to solo against the opposite sides top-laner. It was best if they could kill them on their own, and if they couldnt, it also wasnt a loss to simply remain alive. In a way, Lu Feng was very suitable for the top-lane. This was because his personal ability was too strong, and even the worlds current strongest top-lane Y God wouldnt be able to obtain any benefits from him in a 1v1 fight. It was a pity that Lu Feng couldnt take the top-lane position, because top-laners werent suited for commanding the game, and it was difficult for them to lead the rhythm of the team in a game. As Chen Feng had said, Lu Feng was the absolute core of FTW. If he went to the top-lane position, then it would be the same as FTW losing their backbone, and it would end up in chaos. Of course, there was no need to worry about these things in random matches. Wei Xiao was the jungler, and Lu Feng went to the top lane. The two of them swept away all obstacles wherever they went. They unwittingly queued and played for four hours. Wei Xiao was totally immersed in it, and even urged when they returned to the room, Again, again! Theyd accidentally lost in the last game because their teammate had gone to answer a phone call in the middle of their last group fight. It was impossible for them to win in this kind of four against five situation. Even Wei Xiao and Lu Feng couldnt save them from defeat when one of their team members sent over a free kill right at the start of the fight. Lu Feng: Its not early anymore. Im going off first. Wei Xiao: Youre already logging off? What time is it He looked at the time and was shocked to find that it was already one oclock in the morning! So fast? It didnt feel like it it seemed as though the two of them had only played for a little while. Wei Xiaos heart was full of disappointment, but he couldnt really say anything. Lu Feng quit the game, and Wei Xiao queued for a game on his own, but there wasnt much happiness involved. Wei Xiao stretched, then heard a beep from his cell phone. He picked it up. It was a WeChat message from CloseCC You play jungler very well. Wei Xiaos eyes curved, and he engaged in mutual praise, Your top-lane is also very strong. Close: Queue again tomorrow? Wei Xiao: Yes! Close: Youll still play jungler? Wei Xiao: Okay! Close: Do you want to solo? Wei Xiaos heart leapt up to his throat, Yes! Close: Do you want to come to FTW? Wei Xiao, who was answering smoothly, Yes! Wei Xiao, half a second later: F*ck!!! Juurensha: Hahahaha, trap succeded! xiin: WX: F*ck, my mouth is faster than my brain! Chapter 17: Wei Xiao: When it comes to men, I am the only good one As a former professional player, Wei Xiaos hand speed was faster than his brain. He didnt even know when hed withdrawn the message, but the message had already been withdrawn. Only Close: Address. What was the use of withdrawing the message? The current professional player Lu Fengs dynamic vision was even fiercer than his hand speed. Close: ? Wei Xiao stared at the question mark. There were drums pounding in his heart. He was so nervous that he grabbed the husky and fluffed up its fur, What to do what to do what to do? How could Soybean understand a thing? It swatted the cell phone with a paw, wanting to get rid of this bad thing so that its father would accompany it to play. Coincidentally The big and soft pad of its paw swept across the screen and miraculously sent out an emoticon. Wei Xiaos collection of emoticons were just like him. If they werent bratty, then they were arrogant and outrageous and were usually used when he was acting shameless. The one that Soybean had casually sent out was a typical example. It was a very big panda man, the corners of its mouth curved wickedly with evil charm, two red cheeks, and a large line of text beneath itCCWhen it comes to men, I am the only good one. The sentence written out in tiny font above it was the most provocativeCCHello everyone, Im a liar. I want kisses. Anyone willing to be tricked, who likes being cheated, please give me a kiss and buy a life lesson. Dont ask me why others cheat money while I cheat kisses, because Im a big hooligan. In this second, Wei Xiao really wanted to destroy the world in a fit of righteousness! Withdraw the message! Quickly! But what was the use of it? The single word hed sent before had been seen, and now there was this huge expression pack Close sent over another question mark. Wei Xiao wanted to die, You might not believe me if I say it, but my dog was the one who sent the emoticon. Close paused for a moment, Its just a kiss. Theres no need to claim to be a dog. Wei Xiao: Brother Xiao, who was kneeling on the bed right now, only had one sentence in his brain at this momentCCnatural law will circle back, and the heavens will spare nobody. The reckless things hed done when he galloped through the Jianghu back then had all become the water in his brain now! Wei Xiao quickly sent over a photo of the husky, Look, I really have a dog. Close: Oh. Wei Xiao: It really was the one who sent the emoticon. Close: Mm. Wei Xiao felt that he wouldnt be able to wash himself clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River! Close sent over a screenshot, Was it the one who sent this too? Wei Xiao looked at the screenshot, and the breath that hed just sucked in got caught in his throat. He could swear that between him sending out the word Yes to him withdrawing it, there was only enough time for him to say a single F*ck, and the total time absolutely didnt exceed ten seconds. How had Close managed to get a screenshot? It was amazing, too amazing Glorys great demon kings hand speed was really worthy of his fame. Ah, f*ck! Wei Xiao clutched at his own hair and thought about what he should say. Close: Address? How could Wei Xiao dare to give him his address? He stared at it for a long time, his heart slashed open, then decided to cut off any chance for confusion quickly. He sat down cross legged and typed carefully with unprecedented seriousness, God Lu, your good intentions leave me rather terrified. FTW is a very good team, and youre a very excellent team leader, but due to my personal reasons, theres really no way Hed only just started this long discussion when Close sent over another image. It held the time for the training match between L&P and FTW the day after tomorrow. Wei Xiao stilled, and stopped typing. Close: If you come to watch the training match, its best to arrive an hour ahead of time. Close: Dont worry. The training match video cant be released, but you wont violate the rules if you watch it on the spot. Wei Xiao stared at these two lines of text and tasted them over and over again Then, he quickly deleted everything hed typed and changed his message to, Are you inviting me to watch a training match at FTW? Close: Mm. Wei Xiao: Close: Or, if you can get up in the morning, Ill show you around the base. At this time, Wei Xiaos heart felt like it was riding a roller coaster, swooping up up up, then down down down, to the point where it was almost about to stop. So, Close wasnt inviting him to join FTW and was just inviting him to go to FTW and play? Wei Xiao stared at that sentenceCCDo you want to come to FTW. The word join certainly wasnt there. That made sense, how could something so major like joining a team be asked so casually? Wei Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. Close: The base has moved. Its not easy to find a taxi here; Ill arrange a car to pick you up. Wei Xiao paused again. If it had been Old Bai who wanted to bring him to the FTW base, then he would never, ever go in this lifetime, even if he was beaten to death, even if he deleted Glory. But now The person inviting him was Close, and he was even letting him watch the training match between FTW and last years world finals runner up L&P. Wei Xiao couldnt refuse. He really wanted to watch the training match, and he didnt have any way to refuse Close. The one whod flicked a hand and run off was him. When Close encountered him again, not only did he not beat him to death, he even treated him so kindly. Neither his reason or his emotions allowed him to refuse. Wei Xiao shared a location with Close. Close: Go to bed early. See you the day after tomorrow. The training match was scheduled for the day after tomorrow. Wei Xiao: Good night. Close: Sweet dreams. After setting down the mobile phone, Wei Xiaos entire body collapsed into the soft bed, boneless and loose. It was just an invitation to watch a training match. He raised up his forearm and covered his eyes, but he couldnt cover up the sense of loss he felt from the bottom of his heart. And what if Close had really been inviting him to play as a professional? Could he agree? No. The words his grandmother had said while holding onto his hand on her deathbed were words he couldnt forget for a lifetimeCC Little Xiao, dont be like your father, dont think about those things that are beyond your reach. Listen to your grandma; your grades are good, get into a good university, study well, get a steady job, and live a simple and happy life. Right, he couldnt be like his father. He would never be like his father. The next day, Weibo had already exploded by the time Bai Cai woke up. Bai Cai had just finished arranging a small story on his alt account and switched back to his main account. He was shocked at how many private messages were in his inbox and even suspected that he hadnt changed accounts yet. His alt account had little sisters contributing to it all year round, and his private messages were full to bursting every day. He was already used to it, but hed really never thought that his main account, which was verified and named FTW-White, would one day receive hundreds of private messages. What was going on? Last nights Four Corner Love wasnt that explosive, right?! Bai Cai casually opened up one of the messages and took a look His toothbrush almost dropped to the ground! God Bai! They say that you know One Lamp Grandmaster? Who exactly is he? I heard he hammered the entire Glory circle until it exploded? Have you been hammered by him too? Who exactly is he, hey, how can he be so amazing? Is our FTW really going to sign him?! God of Wealth~ Is One Lamp Grandmaster a professional player? Retired? In service? Or is he a live stream anchor? Is what Moon God and the others saying real or fake? Has he hammered professional players into seclusion? Is he really that strong?! Good god, there were hundreds of private messages, and they were all asking about One Lamp Grandmaster. Bai Cai was puzzled. Although Little Nings tongue had slipped, and hed mentioned the Grandmaster last night, he and Old Wei had always kept a low profile. In the last two years, theyd sincerely focused on beating up the professional players and had never touched the bloody and stormy live stream anchor circle. How had they managed to get fans from all walks of life to go crazy like this? After washing and rinsing in a hurry, Bai Cai looked through it more carefully and discovered the cause and effect. The key words on the trending hot search topics revealed where the problem lay. Close, One Lamp Grandmaster, abduction. Moonlit, One Lamp, seclusion. Eurostar, Grandmaster, changed lanes. Sleep God, Grandmaster, eyes open. Great. The China Glory circles big names were all tied to the One Lamp Grandmaster. It would be f*cking strange if the internet didnt explode! There were outsiders to the circle who came in with looks of confusion on their faces, asking what was going on. A metaphor that a little sister came up with fit wellCC It was basically comparing the situation to a casual player in the entertainment circle whod been abducted by the Emperor (Close), who also hammered the God of Songs (Moonlit) into seclusion, and forced the Film Emperor (Eurostar) to take a break from filming, while simultaneously attracting the attention of the Idol of the People (Sleep God). Over the course of a single night, there was really a constant change of events. At first, it was just a slip of the tongue by Little Ning. Then, Close kicked Bai Cai out of the room to talk alone with the Grandmaster. Then, someone exposed the chat records between Close and Grandmaster when they double queued for matches on the international server. Although theyd chosen to join the games anonymously, their IDs would still be exposed at the end of the game on the settlement page. It was difficult for ordinary players to reach the top 300 and participate in ranked games on the international server, but many live stream anchors could do it. A famous anchor happened to bump into the two during their double queue. As soon as the name Close appeared in the settlement interface, the anchor had instantly become excited! Then, some fans had discovered that Close was in a double queue, and the other ID was also very direct. It was called Professor in English. Translated back, it was about the same as Grandmaster, right? In fact, Wei Xiao really hadnt thought about the ID Grandmaster when he came up with this ID. Hed thought about how it rhymed with Call Beast, but he really couldnt stop the illogical thoughts of the vast number of sleepless citizens. This was just like adding fuel to the fire. The mysterious player One Lamp Grandmaster instantly ignited everyones curiosity. Just after 10PM was the liveliest time online. This was especially true during the off-season when many players took advantage of the lack of training to live stream for fans. The fans would rush around spreading the news, then head to the studio one after another to ask after their cubs. Moon God, Moon God! Do you know One Lamp Grandmaster? Once this scrolling comment showed up, Moonlit looked up in the middle of collecting a head with his hand up and knife poised, One Lamp? Scrolling comments: Yeah, yeah, we heard that FTW wants to sign him. Is he very strong?! Moonlit had originally been about to take a dogs life in the mid-lane. At this moment, he directly headed straight to the tower to kill him, and his voice was colder than the ice staff in his hand, He wants to come play professionally? Very good. With him in the competitions, we can lose the league games, but One Lamp has to die. Needless to say, this statement that was brimming with hatred and murderous spirit made the audiences scalps go numb! Another star player, Euro God, also received the same scrolling comment. Eurostars voice was gentle and kind, One Lamp? Of course I know them. Scrolling comments: Is he strong, is he strong? Eurostar laughed, Do you know why I switched from the top-lane to the bottom lane one year ago? Scrolling comments: !!! Eurostars laughter was quite happy, Its because of him. The scrolling comments went quiet for half a second, then it filled up with Euro Gods trademark quote from his debutCC Some day in the future with a gun in hand, Ill kill all the top lane dogs in the world. In the past, all the fans had differing opinions. They only knew that Euro God had been abused by some top-lane before, and had then chosen to abandon his sword and pick up a gun. He felt absolute abhorrence towards the top-lane, but theyd never known who this top-laner was. Now Theyd found the killer! FTWs fans were all high. Is Grandmasters top-lane so strong? Is our FTW finally going to make it to the forefront?! Of course, there were also haters who mixed in to stir the waters, Wasnt your WTFs Tang Chen powerful? What use is it? As long as you dont deal with the cancer that is Close, our Glory circles will never see a bright future! These two star contestants pushed One Lamp Grandmaster to the front of the wave, and the last to add firewood to the flames was the new high traffic Asleep. As his name implied, Sleep God was very in line with the word sleep. This person was born with a face worthy of an idol, with a pair of e-sports hands, and his biggest hobby in life was sleeping. Apart from eating and playing games, the rest of his time was spent sleeping. Even when he streamed he spent time sleeping while live However, Sleep God looked good, his talent was high, and his strength was high. So, even if he slept while live streaming, his popularity was also high! That day, he was sleeping soundly when he suddenly opened his eyes. The scrolling comments were all full of grandmaster, grandmaster, grandmaster. Asleep treated words like gold. Usually, it was up to his vice-captain to answer for him, but he actually took the initiative to speak today, Hes very strong. His youthful voice was lazy as he drawled slowly, Soloing with him, I can go for a day and a night without sleep. As the new high popularity player of the Glory circle, he was supported by many battle fans. Once these words came out, it would be difficult for the Grandmaster not to explode in popularity even if he didnt want to! Bai Cai sent over the cause and effect that hed sorted out to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao, whod only just woken up, stared on in a daze, What? Bai Cai: Brother Xiao, seeing how were brothers, dont say that you know me. Wei Xiao clicked it open and took a look, and was instantly shocked awake by a screen full of killing intent. His grandma really hadnt deceived him. To hell with playing games for a professional career, wasnt it great just to be alive?! The author has something to say: Hahahaha its not dogblood, dont worry. Juurensha: Grandma, you mean well, but WX will do great things in e-sports apricot: ofc hes just inviting him to playwhat else would he be trying to do hehe ???? xiin: updated may 11, 2020 and changed Eurostar (Ou Xing) & Moonlit (Yue Ye)s names~ Chapter 18: Old Wei, youre really a man with deep sins Bai Cai watched the clip from the live stream and tsked, Old Wei, youre really a man with deep sins. The video clip contained over ten professional players. Other than the top three, the rest were all newer players and even included Xia Dan and the rest. Xia Dan was good at putting on an act. He even wiped off a tear and cried, To be honest, the Grandmaster was idle a few days ago, and Old Yu and I were both summoned to play a full six hours of wheel wars. Yu Fei just so happened to be in a doubles game with him and followed up with, Can you guys imagine? The sour yet refreshing feeling of your Egg Gods famous hero being stomped on and smeared into the ground. Xia Dan gave as good as he got, Nah, your Fish God is a high and lofty jungler king, but he was slapped in the face by Grandmasters eight light arcs, papapa. Mm. These two mutually dragged each other down, and the video became even more lively! The audience caught the key point, Why was Grandmaster so idle? Xia Dan: This cant be said Yu Fei: Secret The next video clip showed a real man who really dared to say it. Moonlit sneered, He heard about the training match between Close and Gary. Fans: ??? Moonlit spoke expressionlessly, In 19, Close won the championship. He finished watching the live broadcast, then found me and Eurostar to solo for eight hours. It was now 2021. In 2019, Moonlit and Eurostar hadnt been in the starting lineups of their teams. The scrolling comments exploded, Damn damn damn! He really got caught up in it! The next clip cut back to the smiling Eurostar, Yes, I switched to the bottom lane after that. When they heard the obsession contained within these words, the passersby couldnt help but feel heartache! What had their Euro God gone through during those eight hours?! Wei Xiao also saw this video clip. He watched it twice, then called Bai Cai, Whats the matter with these guys? Theyre all star players. Cant they feel some burden of their responsibility as idols? What kind of things had they said? A group of professional players had been bullied by a casual player. How could they just talk about it so frankly! Bai Cai laughed, A single person who has been abused still needs to care about having face, but a group of people whove been abused can get excited about it as a group! Whats more, they know that youre going to play professionally. Shouldnt they lay down a good foundation for it and wash away their shame? Wei Xiao froze, then immediately refuted it, Who says Im going to play professionally?! Bai Cai was surprised, Ah, the captain didnt invite you? Wei Xiao choked: He really had invited him. Bai Cai: F*ck, brother, youre really amazing. You rejected the great demon king twice. Youre really something else and cant be considered an ordinary person. Wei Xiao felt a little guilty for some reason, Dont talk randomly about things that didnt happen. Bai Cai: No way, you two stayed in one room together for a few hours, and the captain didnt do anything to you? Wei Xiao was quiet for a moment, Old Bai, I suspect youre driving, and I even have evidence. Bai Cai: The driver sees the car. Brother Xiao, its time for you to wash your mind. Wei Xiao was too lazy to continue being pithy with him, In short, youre all overthinking it. I wont become a professional gamer. Bai Cais words were accurate enough to draw blood, Then what are you going on about? Wei Xiao paused. Bai Cai wanted to strike while the iron was hot and poke at him again. Who couldve known that this fellow would slap his thigh, Right, as long as I dont play professionally, the flames of their revenge wont be able to burn me! Bei Cai: Sigh That wasnt the point. He wanted Wei Xiao to see his own restless and eager professional player heart. But why was it that Wei Xiao: Good brother, youve helped me see things clearly! Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: In fact, if its like this, theres no need to worry so much about it. Make an appointment with those star players later on; I think theyre quite looking forward to it. We cant favor anyone more than anyone else. Bai Cai: S C R A M! Wei Xiao: Hm? Bai Cai: Scram! Wei Xiao scrammed, but he came rolling back soon after, Old Bai, I used to only know that you were shameless before, but I really never thought that you would be this shameless! Bai Cais head was hurting, Whats the matter? Wei Xiao tossed him a screenshot, This this give my eyes back to me! The screenshot showed Bai Cais Weibo message from this morning. Oh, it was the one hed sent out from his Gossip Emperor alt account. The content To be honest, Bai Cai felt that his own eyes hurt from looking at it, Wei Xiao, theres something wrong with you, right? What are you staring at my alt account for? Wei Xiao: Do you think I want to? I was searching for my own gossip. Who couldve known that I would see this sweetness between you and Close sorry, I need to throw up. Wei Xiao didnt follow Bai Cais alt account at all. Hed been carefully searching for One Lamp Grandmaster and trying to remember how many enemies hed created. Who couldve known that some craziness had pushed the famous Gossip Emperor in front of him after a certain related search? The latest Weibo from the Gossip Emperor that had been posted just a short time ago, already had ten thousand comments and a surprisingly high level of popularity. Wei Xiao glanced at it, then hugged the husky and fell into a daze. CCThe great demon king of e-sports and his beloved little support wife. The content burned Wei Xiaos eyes even further. The Gossip Emperor had written a short paper with serious analysis on last nights double queue crash. The exact match where Bai Cai and Wei Xiao had double queued and crashed cars with Lu Feng and Ning Zhehan. Lu Feng had killed Bai Cai 19 times, and the analysis claimed he was jealous. Lu Feng failed to protect Ning Zhehan even once, and the analysis was that hed been forced into teaming up with him. Even kicking out Bai Cai and going to double queue with Wei Xiao at the end had an extra layer of explanationCC He was going to fight a solo match against his rival! Wei Xiaos goosebumps came out when he saw it, Old Bai, youre really a cruel man, and youre really vicious to yourself Nobody knew that the Gossip Emperor was Bai Cai, but Brother Cai had really sacrificed himself in spirit to satisfy everyone. It really made people want to shoutCChow shameless! The corner of Bai Cais mouth twitched, Do you think I wanted to post this?! Wei Xiao: Everything is for the sake of traffic. Old Bai, making this money really hasnt been easy for you. Bai Cai: Shit! He opened up the Gossip Emperor accounts private messages and began to crazily take a series of screenshots, Look, take a good look. Yesterday, I received 800 private messages. 700 of them are YY about you and God Lu! Hed been kind enough to help divert the netizens attention, but this guy didnt even appreciate it! Wei Xiao was rendered speechless by this screenshot. Compared with the private messages from little sisters, the little articles sent to the Gossip Emperor were even clearer than still water. Bai Cai raged, Get it? Wei Xiao: Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Laozi is protecting you, yet youre not even grateful. Youre heartless No Wei Xiao asked this very seriously, Why am I the shou? Bai Cai: Ah? Wei Xiao was very dissatisfied, Why do they all think that Im the shou? Am I not powerful? Am I not amazing? Am I not Alpha-like? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao evaluated himself, Oh, I seem to be shorter than Close, but I could still grow taller by at least another 3 centimeters. 185cm shouldnt be a problem. Umm it seems that thats still shorter than Close Bai Cai: Old Wei. Wei Xiao: Hm? Bai Cai: Go and get lost ahhhhhhhhhh!!! There was a click as he hung up. Why What kind of sins had he, Bai Cai, committed for him to end up as brothers with this crazy person!? After irritating Bai Cai, Wei Xiaos spirit was refreshed, and he got out of bed to walk the dog. It was very cold at the end of January. Wei Xiao didnt wear much, but the husky still caused him to work up a sweat. Hed just returned home when his cell phone rang. This was a sound effect from the accompanying player platform. Wei Xiao took out his cell phone and took a look. Indeed, it was his boss. LU: There? Wei Xiao directly sent over a voice message, Im almost home. He was a little breathless from running. LU paused for a moment, Exercising? Wei Xiao: Walking the dog counts, right?! Wei Xiao: Boss, wait a moment. Im going to take a shower first. LU: No rush. Wei Xiao washed up, and looked in the mirror after he finished wiping himself down. Was 182cm considered short? Why was he the shou? Oh Abdominal muscles. Tsk. Wei Xiao thought of Lu Fengs figure and was a little sour, How could there be an internet addict like that? How unqualified! After pulling on clothes, Wei Xiao went out and picked up his phone, Boss? LU: Here. Wei Xiao: Im logging on. The low rank bracket was too easy for Wei Xiao. He could play casually, easily put in some amazing plays, and make the opposite side shout daddy. After playing about seven or eight games together, the two became more and more familiar with each other. Wei Xiao was the type of person who had more to say the more familiar he was with someone. At first, he was very serious as he explained general things about the game, but he slowly began to show off. See, if this skill is linked well, you can kill all the way to the other teams base in one go. Look at this sinister strike of mine, isnt it badass?! To be honest, most professional players cant do this. After boasting more and becoming more familiar, LU typed, Youre very powerful. Wei Xiao: So-so. Its still a little worse than the worlds number one. The corner of Lu Fengs lips curved slightly, and he asked, If youre so strong, why dont you play professionally? Wei Xiao paused. LU: Theres more future in playing professionally than in being an accompanying player. If anyone else had asked him this question, even if it was Bai Cai, Wei Xiao would simply interrupt with another topic and move past it. He definitely wouldnt say what he felt in his heart. However, LU wasnt someone from the professional circle. He was just an ordinary player, one whod taken good care of him and was both kind and generous. Wei Xiao felt quite fond of him and didnt mind telling him the truth. You might not believe it if I tell you, but I was about to sign a contract two years ago. I wanted to earn money to take my grandma around the world. Yet as a result Lu Feng was a little shocked. Wei Xiao: My grandma heard that I wanted to play professionally and almost beat me into pieces! Lu Feng: Its true that the older generation doesnt have an understanding of e-sports. Wei Xiao joked, I grew up with my grandma and in my entire life, shes the only one Im scared of. The things she doesnt let me do are things I wont do, and besides, playing professionally is really annoying. Its stressful and tiring. Dont just look at how much money can be earned; theres no time to even spend the money, and its useless to earn more. Just then, the two of them entered a new game. Lu Feng didnt say anything else. Wei Xiao was reminded of his grandma, and his nose ached a little. He pulled over the husky and rubbed its fur a few times before managing to hold back his tears. The two of them queued for another three or four games, before Lu Feng said, I have something to do here, Ill log off first. After playing for so long, Wei Xiaos mood had already recovered long ago. He was very agreeable, Kay! The boss had gone offline, so Wei Xiao switched to his main account and was just about to start queuing for games when a WeChat message popped up. Close: Come double queue? Wei Xiaos eyes brightened. He immediately quit his individual queue and replied, Yes! Close: Have you eaten? Wei Xiao: Not yet. Close asked casually, Just woke up? Wei Xiao: Been up for a while. I was accompanying the boss Hed just typed out these three words when he felt that it wasnt quite right. Dont judge him on how hed been an accompanying player for so long. Hed really never accompanied a proper boss before. Hed previously made all of his money by abusing professional players. One Lamp Grandmasters reputation was actually quite cool Wei Xiao was usually very shameless, but he felt an unusual sense of care when dealing with Close. He changed his tone, Been up for a while. I played a few matches with my girlfriend. After sending it out, Wei Xiao complimented himself: Laozi was really damn smart. Take a look at this style of being a life winner, a really cool guy! The author has something to say: Brother Xiao, your Schrodingers girlfriend hahahahaha! Juurensha: you just cant win with your mouth, WX! xiin: yeah, just tell your girlfriend youve been playing with your other girlfriend good job, WX xiin: updated may 11, 2020 and changed Eurostar (Ou Xing) & Moonlit (Yue Ye)s names~ Chapter 19: A person who diligently and conscientiously wrecks all the men in the Glory circle This cool guy probably wouldnt feel so cool if hed known that the person on the other side had his two identities both labelled as Wei Xiaos girlfriend. Lu Feng smiled briefly, Girlfriend? There was a reason why the great demon king was the great demon king. Firstly, Lu Feng was very powerful and could use his own strength to crush professional players worldwide. If he wasnt a demon king, then who else would dare call themselves a king? Secondly, he had a cold and indifferent personality. According to the statistics calculated by his fanatical fans, the probability of Closes mouth curving upwards all year round was about the same as that of a comet hitting the earth. Fine, they were exaggerating a little, but it was enough to show how little Lu Feng liked to smile. Now that Close had encountered Wei Xiao Comets were about to smash Mother Earth to tears. As soon as Wei Xiao thought about how he now had a girlfriend at 19 years old, he felt that it was worth showing off in a low-key way, Low ranked bracket, just playing to keep her company. Lu Feng: I didnt disturb you, right. Wei Xiao: No, shes very busy. She had something else to do after a few matches. Lu Feng: Student? Wei Xiao evaluated, Working. A powerful woman. For them to be able to casually spend two million to find an accompanying player, his boss was very likely to be a big president. Lu Feng: Mm. When faced with this monosyllabic Lu Feng, Wei Xiao couldnt keep himself from explaining further, Shes very powerful when working, but shes very cute in private. Especially when she plays games, shes particularly clever and obedient. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao happily continued to make things up, Shes the cutest when she plays the fire mage, bouncing around and jumping straight to the top of my heart. In order to act like a new player, Lu Feng used the account LU and only used the fire mage when playing with Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao coughed, Look at me go on, I talk too much once I get started. Lu Feng: Its fine. At the end, he added another sentence, Are you both coming to visit the base tomorrow? Wei Xiao: ! No, no. Wei Xiao hurriedly replied, Shes very busy. Lu Feng: Tomorrow is Sunday. Wei Xiao clenched his teeth, There are no weekends for powerful women! Lu Feng: Then he should value you quite a lot to play games with you despite being so busy. Wei Xiao stared at the word he. Lu Feng: Oh, typo. Wei Xiao felt so guilty he wanted to die, Captain Lu, your typo is really deadly! Lu Feng withdrew the message and resent it after editingCC Then he should really value you a lot to play games with you despite being so busy. Wei Xiao stared at it and read it over twice before discovering that what Lu Feng had changed wasnt the typo he. Instead, hed changed quite to really? No way, are you sure you corrected your sentence?! Lu Feng sent over another line of text, Its still wrong. Just make do with it. Wei Xiao: She! Wei Xiao corrected him, Its her! Lu Feng: I know. Why did Wei Xiao feel that this person didnt really know? Sure enough, one really shouldnt speak nonsense. There was always the risk of having the tables turned at the slightest thing. Forget it, forget it. Instead of showing off his current life, Wei Xiao asked, Lets queue? Lu Feng: Go eat first. Wei Xiao hadnt played enough yesterday and was in the midst of having fun today, My takeaway hasnt arrived yet. Lets play a match first. Lu Feng agreed. There would be a maintenance update every Friday. While waiting for the new data packages from the maintenance to download, Lu Feng asked, Do you mind if I stream? Although Wei Xiao wasnt in the professional Glory circle, he had a very good understanding of professional players. They had to play in competitions, eat at appropriate times, indulge their fans, and completing their live stream quota hours was homework that had to be handed in. He didnt mind, Its fine, stream as you like. He often accompanied Bai Cai when he was streaming and was long used to it. However, hed forgotten that the person on the other side wasnt the beloved little support wife, but rather the great demon king of e-sports. Lu Fengs live studio had just opened up and hadnt even been shared on Weibo when the number of viewers soared to a million in an instant. Everything comes to those who wait; Ive finally managed to stalk and wait until God Lu started broadcasting live! Aaahhh, God Lu has come to his live stream studio to pull up weeds!!! Oh my god oh my god oh my god, to be able to see God Lu again in this lifetime, this old woman can die in peace! No way, theres no red rain today. How could a Close fall down from the sky?! The scrolling comments were sweeping through like crazy. Most of them were cries of true love, with proposals and requests for marriage competing for space. The countless crazy scrolling comments were interspersed with one or two more rational fans, God Lu, could you turn on your camera? As soon as these words came out, it set off a million waves. Regardless of whether they were girlfriend fans, madame fans, mama fans, CP fans, or poisonous fans, they were all united with the same request, Turn on the camera, turn on the camera, turn on the camera! Lu Feng turned on his mic, Theres training in a bit. Im just casually playing a match. Although they couldnt see his face, his voice alone was already enough to topple a large stretch of fans in his live stream studio. Worth it this Friday was totally worth it. Yingyingying, how could a voice be so pleasant to the ears? Sisters, hold on, what are you recording for?! After the new data packages finished downloading and installing, Lu Feng logged into the game and opened up a team room. The fans in the studio still didnt know that something big was about to happen. They were just discussing delightedly amongst themselves, What does God Lu want to play? Im okay with anything, its like New Years day today! Then, Lu Feng invited a person from his friends list. ID: Professor. The scrolling comments in the live stream froze for half a second, then thoroughly exploded. Professor! Professor! Grandmaster! The hot search topic hadnt even disappeared yet, but they were starting it up again?! Holy shit, is it true? Is the Grandmaster really going to join FTW?! These two just finished queueing together last night, but theyre now purposely coming to stream their game? There was someone who hadnt yet caught up on the gossip, Who is this Grandmaster? Someone immediately explained it to himCC A person who has all kinds of fans behind him as he diligently and conscientiously wrecks all the men in the Glory circle. A wild horse that all the top contestants in my circle are unable to forget. A man who has already brought about a reign of terror without even making his debut! Fortunately, Wei Xiao couldnt see the scrolling comments. Otherwise, he would definitely make sure to advertise himself properly! 200 per game was no longer enough. 500 per game would match his identitys current popularity. It had to be said that his boss really had discerning vision. Hed purchased 10,000 games at the lowest price. It was really a steady profit without any losses! Wei Xiao turned on the mic, Is there sound? His words were very proper when he was on a live stream. Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao: Start, then. Im ready. Lu Feng: Just one game. After that, you go eat first. Wei Xiao: Its fine, Im not hungry. Lu Feng was silent. Wei Xiao quickly spoke again, Okay, okay, okay, whatever you say. Lu Feng: Mm. It was a simple conversation, but the scrolling comments had already gone crazy. Is this my great demon king? Is this really my ruthless, emotionless great demon king who only says a single word during half an hour of live streaming?! No way isnt he supposed to be cold and indifferent? Someone high up in the mountains who can only be looked up at in awe? Someone who sends others into seclusion with a single syllable?! Hold on does my FTW really have training later? It cant be that God Lu is only broadcasting one game so that the Grandmaster will eat, right? I feel that God Lus little silence was a little discontented joking. Grandmaster is really doing whatever he says. As a vegetable fan, let me clarify something. Grandmasters whatever you say has been spoken to Caicai no less than ten times. Worthy of being someone who has wrecked his way through the men of the Glory circle. Sure enough, if a man isnt a bad boy, then other men wont love them! In the game, Lu Feng asked Wei Xiao: Try top-lane? Wei Xiao: No problem. Lu Feng took the jungler position and selected anonymous mode. Wei Xiao was someone who could play any position except support. Of course, he had a tendency towards one position no matter how versatile he was, just like how Lu Feng was better at close combat heroes. It was the same for Wei Xiao. If he couldnt play jungler, then Wei Xiaos next favorite was top-lane. There were many heroes that could be used in both the top lane and the jungle. Choosing which hero to take depended on the lineup. There was no need to take these things into account in the lower ranked brackets, but they needed to be considered in the higher tiers. Regardless of the strength of the individual, if the lineup already restrained them, then even the worlds number one player wouldnt be able to turn the tables in 5v5. Lu Feng didnt take the thief. Instead, he chose the ghost paladin. This hero was more suitable for the top lane, but it could naturally also be used in the jungle. Wei Xiao cooperated with him and took the thief, using it for the top lane. A ghost paladins DPS was relatively small, and it was a good match to have a thief supplement the damage. The scrolling comments calmed down a bit, and quite a few technical emperors came up to start sharing general knowledgeCC Recently, Close likes choosing top-lane heroes. Theres nothing wrong with using a ghost paladin for the jungler position. L&P also came up with this method during this years finals. This season, blue collar junglers are the real daddies. The thief has been nailed to the cold bench since a long time ago. FTW, hurry up and change your way of thinking. Its been three years of jungle core (using the jungler position as the core of the team), yet you still havent entered the world finals! The haters all started to show up, Enough already, with your number one in the world on the team, FTWs core will only ever be him in this lifetime. This Professors ability isnt bad, but unfortunately, entering FTW is a dead end. Child, listen to daddys advice. You can go anywhere but FTW. Sooner or later, youll be sucked dry by God Lu. The game ended in less than half an hour. Wei Xiao felt like he hadnt managed to flex to the best of his abilities before they won. Lu Feng: Alright, go eat. Wei Xiao tried to tempt him, How about one round of solo? Lu Feng: Sure Wei Xiao almost bounced up, Lets go! Lu Feng finished his words, When you come to the base. Wei Xiao: ??? Lu Feng closed the live broadcast and said to him, See you tomorrow. Wei Xiaos heart felt incredibly itchy, About that Couldnt they solo anywhere? Why did it have to be at the base?! Lu Feng spoke slowly, We have three training matches with L&P. For every match FTW wins, Ill solo with you for three hours. Wei Xiao: !!! Lu Feng continued, Winning three matches is nine hours. The bloodthirsty youth who even dreamed of soloing with Lu Feng let it all get to his head. Wei Xiao: A promise is a promise! Lu Feng: Okay. After the excitement passed, Wei Xiao quickly calmed down. That wasnt right L&P was the strongest team in North America, and it had been the runner up in the global finals last year. FTW was a team that did round tours in international competitions. How could they win against the runner up from the finals?! Let alone FTW had undergone major changes this year. An old player and god, Tang Chen, had retired. Their mid-lane that had gone through over a year of running in had also been listed for a transfer. The newcomer Ning Zhehan had been hammered into seclusion from domestic training matches, let alone in a training match against the runner up in the global finals! Even if Little Ning had made rapid progress and was now able to hold up the mid-lane, FTW was still short a top-lane player. God Tang was gone, but FTW hadnt signed anyone new yet, right? Could it be that they were planning to transfer someone from the reserve team to fill the position? It wasnt that Wei Xiao looked down on the reserve teams players, but L&P was really too strong! What nine hours of solo? Close was just teasing him! FTW had no chance of winning at all! Unless A bold idea popped out in Wei Xiaos heartCCif he went and replaced the top-lane position, there might be a small hope of winning? Even just winning a single match would be good. He could solo for three hours! Juurensha: WX.youre about to fall into another one of Lu Fengs traps. xiin: thats almost an improvement from falling into his own pits and he wont regret this one~ Chapter 21: Two years later, this was the first time he was meeting Close in reality again It wasnt difficult to obtain information about Wei Xiaos family. As long as he went to the small town where his family lived, went to a shop there, and casually bought something without asking in too much detail, the other party would share everything they knew about the Wei family. Before going there, Lu Feng had come up with many possible ideas. However, he hadnt expected that it would be like this. The Wei family was famous in the local area. They werent rich or powerful, but strange. In fact, it wasnt appropriate to use this word to describe them, but the people in this small town all regarded this existence that was so out of place as a strange wonder. Wei Xiaos father, Wei Quan, was a strange existence in the eyes of the small towns people. In a little place like this where everyone only thought about firewood, rice, oil, and salt, a person who lost it all for the sake of pursuing his dream was an existence that the people found very difficult to understand. Wei Quan was a painter. Or, it should be said that he always wanted to be a painter. Painting was a money burning business, and the Wei family wasnt rich at all. Grandpa Wei had passed away early, and Grandma Wei raised Wei Quan on her own. It hadnt been easy. Wei Quan had a stubborn temper, and he insisted on doing the things hed decided on all the way until the end. Other than painting, he was uninterested in anything else. Fortunately, he didnt have any special requirements. He could even go without eating as long as he had a brush, canvas, and oil paint. Grandma Wei had indulged him at first, but she couldnt hold on any longer in the end. She arranged a match for him, hoping that he would gain a sense of responsibility and learn to support his family after marriage. At the start, Wei Quan hadnt wanted to get married, but he fell in love after meeting Mother Wei. Li Su was a person who understood him, someone who supported his painting. Shed been born in a small town and yearned for beautiful things. Wei Quans paintings were ugly and absurd, but Li Su felt that they were very beautiful. She felt that the man who crouched in front of the canvas was dazzling. After their marriage, the sense of responsibility that Grandma Wei was waiting for didnt come. Instead, it ushered in an even crazier son. Li Su was fully supportive of his painting. She took on all the housework and went looking for work everywhere in order to make money, supporting the family and allowing her husband to pursue his dream. Grandma Wei was angry at her for indulging Wei Quan, and was also distressed at how tired she had to be. This period of time had actually been a happy one. Although the family was tired, and although Wei Quan didnt behave as expected, the two women were enough to keep the household organized and afloat. Until Wei Xiao was born. This couple didnt care about their child at all. Wei Xiao had only turned two when Wei Quan began to go elsewhere for further study. Li Su followed him to take care of him, and left their only son back in their hometown. Wei Xiao had a father and mother, but he grew up being taken care of by his grandmother. When Wei Xiao was mentioned, the woman in the convenience store shook her head and sighed, Hes really a good child. Ive never seen such a sensible and intelligent kid. He knew how to count when he was four or five years old, and knew how to help his grandma buy things and count money. He always did well in primary school and would get full marks on tests every time. He was also very strong-willed. Nobody dared bully him, and he really made others care for him! Tell me, how could there be such muddleheaded parents who would leave behind such a good child and insist on creating some paintings? It would be fine if they could make some money, but the two of them were living from one meal to the next. Whats the point? Ah, Wei Xiao was really the ideal child. He was so sensible, his studies were good, he had a good temper, he liked to talk and laugh, and would do housework when he went home, coaxing his grandma until a smile split her face We all say that a grandson is an old ladys reward, and after suffering comes happiness. With such a precious grandson, she could just wait for happiness to come in the future. Who couldve known that the old ladys life was bitter. She passed away even before her grandchild was admitted into university Two years ago, when he came back to see his sick grandma, that child Wei Xiao The woman wiped away a tear as she spoke, Ah, say, how could this child be so unfortunate, how could life be so bitter! Although he couldnt see the scene from back then, Lu Feng still remembered the 17 year old Wei Xiao. The tall and thin youth had a pair of bright eyes that sparkled like stars. He liked to laugh, liked to make a fuss, acting as though everything that happened in the world was no big deal. Dauntless, fearless, bold, flamboyant. Who couldve thought that hed been born in such a family with no support and grown up in such a swamp of thorns? Grandma Wei had died of illness. It was a disease that couldve been cured if it was discovered early, but their family situation had been so bad, Grandma Wei had been worried about dragging her family down and had continuously endured it. Finally Shed left this mortal world. At that time, Wei Xiao had been one step away from the two million yuan signing fee. Hed said that he wanted to take his grandma around the world Hed wanted to build a good life for his grandma whod suffered all her life However, it was all gone. Grandma Wei passed away, and Wei Quan came back. The man whod selfishly spent half his life pursuing an illusory dream finally woke up. He knelt in front of the door and kowtowed with a face full of tears. Wei Xiao barred the door tight and refused to allow him to enter. In the heart of the 17 year old youth, the man in front of him wasnt his father. He was the murderer whod killed his closest relative. Ai, if it wasnt for his grandma passing away, Wei Xiao would surely have been admitted to Tsinghua University! The woman lamented, Now, his father has woken up and is working honestly at home to earn money, but its been two years, and I havent seen Wei Xiao come back once Its late, its all too late. What had this set of parents gone off to do back then? They had to harm their child irrevocably before waking up! Lu Feng went to visit Wei Xiaos family. Wei Xiaos father wasnt at home, but his mother Li Su was. The small, ordinary yard was tidy and well maintained. Li Su opened the door. Her thin face was a little nervous when she saw a stranger in front of her, You are? The person in front of her was very tall and well dressed. His face was young and handsome, and he looked like a TV star. Lu Feng introduced himself politely, Hello, Im one of Wei Xiaos friends. There was nothing wrong with this statement. Li Su was stunned, and then her pale face was covered in a layer of joy. She looked behind him, Little Xiao Lu Feng said, I came by myself. Oh, its like that. Li Su couldnt keep the disappointment from her face, but she soon perked up again and invited him, Come in, quickly come in, its cold outside. Lu Feng followed her inside and saw an old but clean living room. Li Su made him tea. Lu Feng thanked her. Li Su always felt a little nervous when faced with Lu Feng. She asked softly, Did you come for something? Lu Feng introduced himself, My name is Lu Feng. He handed his business card to Li Su. Li Su accepted it with both hands and fell into a daze after looking at it. E-e-sports? Lu Feng, head of the FTW e-sports club. Lu Feng: Do you know anything about this industry? Li Su paused for a moment, I know a little. Lu Feng continued, Wei Xiao is very talented. We would like to invite him to join our club and play in competitions. Li Su stared at the business card in her hand in a daze. Her hand was so tense that her knuckles turned a little white, He does Little Xiao like it? Lu Feng stilled slightly. He hadnt expected that she would ask this. Li Su suddenly looked up at Lu Feng, Does he like this kind of thing? Lu Feng looked at her and nodded. Yes. Li Sus tense expression relaxed slightly, and a little bit of a smile even appeared in her eyes, Thats good. Its great if he likes it. She held the business card like it was a treasure, a treasure that was linked to her distant son. Lu Feng said, I looked into your situation before coming here. Li Su wasnt surprised. Her voice trembled, We havent done right by him. Lu Feng continued, In fact, we invited him to join us two years ago, but he left just before signing the contract. Li Su froze for a moment, her face paling, Im sorry. Hes had many opportunities to play professionally over the past two years, but he refused all of them. Li Su was stupefied. He likes the competition stage and is eager for a strong opponent, but hes never taken this step. Lu Feng stared at Li Su and continued, He said his grandma didnt want him to play professionally. As soon as this remark came out, Li Su, whod been suppressing her mood, lost control over her emotions. She clutched at the business card as though she was holding onto a last, life-saving straw and sobbed silently, No, his grandmother just didnt want him to be like his father, she just Lu Feng didnt say anything. He already knew the answer. Li Su choked and continued brokenly, His grandmother loved him the most and supported everything he wanted to do. She only wanted him to be happy and didnt want to see him suffer its all our fault, we were the ones who were wrong. Chagrin and remorse had turned into vipers after their loss, gnawing at the heart. Lu Feng handed her a packet of tissues. Li Su: Im sorry, this must be awkward. Lu Feng: Its not. Li Sus mood stabilized somewhat, and she lifted her head to look at Lu Feng, Im not very clear on what e-sports is, but as long as Little Xiao likes it, I She smiled bitterly, His father and I have no right to weigh in, but his grandmother would definitely support it He and his father have never been the same, theyve never been the slightest bit alike Mister Lu, can you help me persuade him? I dont want him to be affected by us any more. Little Xiao this child has already suffered enough. Lu Fengs voice was soft, I will. Li Su suddenly stood up. Wait a minute. Theres something here that I would like to ask you to give him. It was left behind by his grandma. Lu Feng nodded and agreed, Okay. When he left the small town, Lu Feng had a box in his hand. There was a painting and a notebook contained inside. He would find a suitable opportunity to give it to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao hadnt expected that someone would ever ring his doorbell at eight oclock in the morning! Eight! Wei Xiao stared at the time displayed on his phone. He felt like hed just seen a huge joke! They were in the midst of a proper winter vacation. What had he done to deserve seeing the eight oclock morning sun?! The husky saw that hed woken up and thought that he was taking it for a walk, pouncing on him in delight. Wei Xiao couldnt bear to kick it and could only rage at it, Go away, go away, your daddy really wants to see whos here to screw with me so early in the morning! He stuffed his feet into his slippers and opened the door, his face full of rage. He thought to himself that if it was Bai Cai, he would hammer him into rotten vegetables! The door opened There was a bang. Wei Xiao thought hed seen a ghost when he opened the door and promptly closed it again. The husky: Aroooo~! What was going on? Werent they going out to play? Wei Xiao was confused for two seconds. He took a deep breath, C-C-C-Close? Two years later, this was the first time he was meeting Close in reality again. At eight oclock in the morning, in his messy dog kennel place, with his hair even more of a mess, hed just seen Close? F*ck! Wei Xiao hurriedly ran his fingers through his hair a few times, then opened the door again. Lu Feng wore a dark colored plaid coat and had a wool scarf at his collar. His eyebrows and eyes were as cold and indifferent as ever, and people could feel the chill from outside as he simply stood there. CCThe Glory cooling agent. Had a well-deserved reputation. Morning. Lu Fing looked at him without blinking. Wei Xiao gaped at him, Morning. The silly dog didnt care what the atmosphere was like and crowded in, wanting to squeeze its way out. Lu Fengs gaze dropped down, Is this the one who wants kisses? Wei Xiao: Previously, Soybeans meaty paws had pressed blindly, sending Lu Feng an emoticon that said it wanted kisses. F*ck! Wei Xiao mustve gotten up the wrong way today. What kind of thundering start to the day was this?! And then, the huskys old bad habits just had to kick in. It let out a whimper and pounced over as soon as its misty blue eyes noticed Lu Feng. Lu Feng was caught by surprise. Wei Xiao pulled at the stupid dog, Soybean, calm down! Lu Feng was worthy of being a man who exercised all year round. He was actually able to withstand this impact, Its Wei Xiaos dignity had been completely tossed away by this dog, You wont believe it even if I tell you, this is a licking dog! Lu Feng couldnt quite figure it out, Huh? Wei Xiao didnt even try to salvage the situation, When it sees a good looking person, itll pounce over and lick them. It was undoubtedly a real licking dog! Damn it, how had he managed to raise such a doggy thing?! Lu Feng: Wei Xiao finally managed to control Soybean. It wasnt easy, and he was left half sweating all over. Its normally not so excited. Its probably because youre too attractive. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao realized that there was something not quite right with what hed just said, I mean, this dog thinks that youre attractive, not youre very handsome, and I also think.. f*ck The more he explained, the more toxic it became. Lu Feng pressed down Soybeans doggy head, Good eyesight. Wei Xiao: Youre talking about Soybean, this stupid dog, right?! Lu Feng glanced at him, I brought breakfast. Want it? Husky: Ao! It didnt understand anything else, but it was particularly good at understanding the words breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Even by the time breakfast was on the table, the Wei Xiao whod just taken a shower was still a little confused. God Lu, why did you come to find me so early in the morning? Wei Xiao finally asked the key point. Lu Feng glanced at his wet, dripping hair, then said, Bringing you to the base. Wei Xiao froze for a moment, No Lu Feng repeated what hed said before, The base has moved. Its not easy to find a taxi here; Ill arrange a car to pick you up. Wei Xiao blinked, So you came in person? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiaos face was a little incredulous as he bit into a soup dumpling. Eat first. Lu Feng was quite interested in the husky, It wants to go out and play? Ill take it downstairs. Wei Xiao stared on blankly as he told him, Oh, the leash is on the shelf Wei Xiao woke up completely when the door closed again behind him! What exactly was this situation! If he hadnt remembered incorrectly, not only was Lu Feng FTWs trump card, hed also become the owner of the club two years ago. So, hed personally come over to pick him up to visit the base? Was there anyone who would be so nice to him?! He always felt that there was some trick up ahead Half an hour later, Wei Xiao felt that things were even more fantastical. Lu Feng drove a Cullinan, a Rolls-Royce SUV. Having this car parked beneath his single bachelors apartment in the university town was really eye-catching. That wasnt the key point. After all, it was commonly known that God Lu wasnt lacking for money. He could afford any car, no matter how expensive, but the problem was Wei Xiao spoke incredulously, A friendly reminder, if Soybean scratches the car seats, I cant afford to pay for it. Lu Feng placed the excited husky in the back seat, Its fine. Wei Xiao stressed, It can do anything. What they say about huskies demolishing houses is real! Lu Feng laughed briefly, The base is very large. Wei Xiao: ??? What did he mean, the base was very large?! Did he mean to let this stupid dog do as it pleased?! Wei Xiao had really never thought that he would actually even bring the husky along with him for a visit to FTW to watch a training match. Who couldve known? This aloof and indifferent great demon king of the Glory circle was actually so friendly towards a licking dog! The author has something to say: Small theatreCC Wei Xiao: I think that theres a pit up ahead. Lu Feng: Jumping in or not? Soybean goes ahead and jumps in first: Ao! Juurensha: yeah, I dont like the parents much even if they feel bad now. And hahaha, yes, Soybean, help push your master into the pit! Chapter 22: Was this person that Close had taken a liking to an ancestor or a top-laner?! After getting in the car, Wei Xiao was still not at ease, You really dont have to bring the dog, Soybean can take care of himself. Lu Feng: You dont take it out often? Wei Xiao was addicted to gaming. He basically wished he could spend 48 hours a day playing ranked games; how could he have time to walk his dog outside? Lu Feng: Huskies are full of energy. If you dont want him to wreck the house, you should take him out to run five kilometers a day. Wei Xiao: ??? Lu Feng: Or eight kilometers. Wei Xiao was silent for three seconds, No need, no need. With that amount of effort, I might as well stew it and eat dog meat hotpot. Five kilometers, eight kilometers? In the heart of a shut-in, even 100 meters was like the distance between heaven and earth! Lu Feng looked at him through the rearview mirror, I can do it. Wei Xiao: Ah? Lu Feng spoke casually, Theres no difference between running by myself or with a dog. Wei Xiao: ! What are you talking about? How can I ask you to run with my dog? Yet at this time, the husky even let out a fascinated Ao. Wei Xiao laughed dryly, Cough, the FTW base is so big. You can consider raising a dog or something. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao was worried that his next sentence would be How about you leave Soybean there?. Although he scolded this doggy son all day long, there was true love between him and Soybean. He would cry if he didnt have him and cry very loudly at that! Oh, right. Wei Xiao quickly changed the topic, Has the list of names for the training match been settled? He seemed to be asking casually, but it was something that Wei Xiao had on his mind, was curious about, and really wanted to know. Lu Feng: Its settled. Wei Xiaos heart clenched, I heard Old Bai say that you have your eye on a top-lane player? Lu Feng held the steering wheel in a one-handed grip. He didnt even blink, Yes. Wei Xiao stroked the dogs fur, Who is it? Is it from FTWs second team? Or is it someone who just got listed? The off season was also the transfer period. Glory had had mature team management processes for many years now. After the global finals, the players in the sixteen competition zones could consider whether or not they wanted to list themselves based on their existing contracts. As long as they were listed, other clubs could bid, and they would join the highest bidder. It was considered a fair process. Wei Xiao thought through all the top-lane players who were on the listing, but he couldnt think of who it could be. A lot of data emperor and analysis emperor insiders had said that this year was the year for the rise of the China competition zone, and it wasnt an unreasonable statement to make. After one year of training, the batch of players that included Moonlit and Eurostar had found their footing. There were also some amazing talents like Asleep. Even Little Ning, whod been signed by FTW at a high price, was a talented player who could only be found by chance. It was precisely because several seed teams had gradually already taken shape that this listing period was relatively lackluster. If the teams worked well together, then players wouldnt be willing to leave their team. Regarding money, it was more of a number; everyone paid more attention to the results. Winning the championship was like a big stone of pressure pressing down in the hearts of countless Chinese contestants. Not only for FTW. The China competition zone had 16 active teams, and there wasnt a single one who didnt want redemption or want to regain glory for their country! With this in mind, Wei Xiao really didnt feel that any of the listed players were appropriate. In that case Who exactly was Lu Feng interested in? Lu Feng spoke calmly, Neither. Wei Xiao was startled, A newcomer?! Lu Feng didnt say anything. Wei Xiao was shocked, Will that be okay? One Ning Zhehan is already quite risky, will you guys be able to hold up with another one? Besides, other than Little Ning, there werent any outstanding players in this years youth training camp FTW was going to overturn like this! Chinas competition zone was surrounded by tigers and wolves this year. Polaris was on the rise, but FTW was planning to introduce two newcomers with no competition experience at this time It was going to be a big deal! So what if there was Lu Feng there to cover for them? 5v5 matches placed great importance on the entire team. In the professional arena, the five people must be twisted together into a metal barrel. If any gaps could be found, they would be pried open further and exploited by their opponents until they were defeated. Although FTW always did a round tour for the international championships, for better or worse, they were still the domestic competition champions. If they couldnt even take the domestic championship this time As a die-hard loyal FTW fan, Wei Xiaos dedicated professional heart exploded. Thats too risky! Wei Xiaos voice had risen up slightly. Lu Feng focused on driving. Hes excellent. When he heard these words, not only did Wei Xiaos heart explode, it also collapsed, How excellent are they? F*ck, exactly which newcomer was this that could actually get such a high evaluation from Close?! Lu Feng paused for a moment, then spoke steadily, They have a strong personal ability Wei Xiao interrupted him, Could they be better than He originally wanted to say, could they be better than me, but when he thought about it, those words didnt seem right, and he hurriedly stopped himself. He switched to, Could they be better than you? Lu Feng laughed briefly, Hard to say. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng: Hes young and inexperienced, but his future is promising. Wei Xiao: The husky felt a sting of pain from having its fur pulled, Arooo~ Wei Xiao hurriedly let go and stroked its fur, but the fur in his heart had already exploded in all directions! The new season is about to start. Is there enough time for him to build up experience? Lu Feng: The competition arena is the best coach. The implication beneath the words was that playing matches would increase his experience and the entire team would accompany him to grow. Wei Xiaos heart, it was so sour. It even created little vinegar bubbles in his words, You really value him. Ahhhhh, who the hell was it?! He wanted to hammer him, wanted to smash his entire hero pool! He wouldnt need to gain experience from playing in competitions. Wei Xiao would first show him how cruel reality was! Mm. Lu Feng looked at him in the rearview mirror. Hes worth it. Wei Xiao was stunned, and the sourness in his heart stabbed him again. Worth it. He was worth it. And he wasnt worth it. Wei Xiao hugged the husky. His voice was a little hoarse, Stop moving around! The well-behaved Soybean who was sitting properly, Ao? It hadnt been moving around, it was just that its father was holding it really tightly! Wei Xiao knew that he deserved it, but he still felt upset in his heart. What did he have to be jealous of. Back then, hed been the one who didnt take the opportunity. Back then, Close had also valued him this much, but hadnt he just run off without saying a word? Regardless of his personal ability, at least this new top-lane was someone who Close felt was worth it. At least it was someone who wouldnt run off on the spot. FTW base. Tang Chen looked at the huge neck protector in front of him, and the corners of his lips twitched. Chen Feng: Put it on, quickly! Tang Chen pulled it over his head resignedly and said, I dont look like I have a bad neck now, I look like a paraplegic! Chen Feng: Werent you the one who took the initiative to add drama. Tang Chen put on the neck guard, and his neck couldnt move at all. Its rare for Old Lu to be concerned. How could I refuse to help? Chen Feng frowned, Im not very sure about this. Can someone who is pulled in with any means at our disposal actually be on the same page as us in the end? Tang Chen: You dont need to worry about that. I feel that that kid loves the game to his bones more than anyone else. As long as he returns to the team, hell definitely be a valiant general for the team. Chen Feng paused for a moment and glanced towards this wooden block, Dont you think that Close is too interested in Wei Xiao? Tang Chen struggled to adapt to the neck guard, Dont you know Old Lu? He looks cold and indifferent, but in fact, his heart is softer than anyone else. Back then Chen Feng shifted his gaze and said angrily, But he f*cking cant tell good from bad and ends up with white-eyed wolves! Tang Chen was more open minded, Well, its already been so many years. Havent we been doing well? Chen Fengs liver hurt when he thought about it, To hell with doing well. Its been three years. Have we gotten a championship? Have we gotten even one?! Tang Chen: Cough. Chen Feng got angrier the more he thought about it, Theyre all dogs, each and every one of them. If they have the ability, then go and compete in the individual competition as well. Itll be strange if Close doesnt smash their dog heads open! These grudges were too complicated Tang Chen didnt dare to answer and pretended that hed been strangled by the neck guard. Bai Cai yawned as he came downstairs. He was confused for a moment when he saw Tang Chen, God Tang? Yue Wenle was also confused, Youre Ning Zhehan was still rather young and said whatever was on his mind, Brother Tang, were you in a car accident?! Tang Chen clunked granny grey on the head, Stinky boy! Ning Zhehan squeaked, but he was still worried about him, Be careful, your neck Tang Chen cleared his throat and tried out his poor acting skills, Its fine. My cervical spondylosis is acting up; its an occupational disease and a standard thing for e-sports players. Especially a retired one like me, if there wasnt something or the other, Id be embarrassed to say that I played professionally. It wasnt a secret in the team that Tang Chen had a bad neck. In particular, during the competition in 2020, Tang Chen had gotten sick several times, suffering from major headaches. He forced himself to play and performed badly, ending up tragically bashed by the haters. Ning Zhehan opened his mouth and mentioned the big elephant in the room, Brother Tang, havent you been much better recently? How did it suddenly become so serious? Tang Chen had been recovering for half a month, and it was indeed much better. Now Wasnt there a script to follow! Sigh. Tang Chen told himself that he had to first deceive himself in order to trick others and said realistically, This disease cant be cured, itll just act up every now and then. Chen Feng went downstairs and glanced at him, Will you be able to participate in the training match later? Hed said that he wouldnt follow the script, but his body was very honest about cooperating. Little Ning was actually very afraid of Coach Chen Feng. In the China Glory circles, if Close was the great demon king, then Coach Chen Feng was her majesty, the queen. Newcomers admired the great demon king and feared Coach Chen Feng. There was one reason for it. The great demon king was untouchable and unreachable, but Coach Chen Feng had a sharp tongue. Occasionally, when they reviewed the replays, he could speak gently with a warm voice and still be able to make professional players cry. Ning Zhehan had experienced it before and was very scared of it. Bai Cai had thick skin and dense flesh and had become immune to it long ago. He looked left and right and savored it a little, Indeed. With God Tangs neck like this, will he still be able to play in the training match? Tang Chen said helplessly, Theres no other way. The team is short a top-laner, and the training match is a rare opportunity. We cant just postpone it. Yue Wenle was unaware of the situation, What, the new top-lane candidate hasnt been determined yet? Chen Feng looked outside, Almost. Yue Wenle, Then, is he not joining the training match? Tang Chen thought to himself: Whether he joins or not will depend on my performance! Who couldve thought that the retired God Tang would switch careers and become an actor? Ning Zhehan was very curious and whispered quietly, About that, I heard that the captain wants to sign One Lamp Grandmaster? Yue Wenle, whod immersed himself in training and hadnt inquired about worldly matters, What?! Ning Zhehan vaguely knew about the grudge between God Le and the Grandmaster and didnt dare say more. Bai Cai said, Didnt you look at Weibo? Were just short of an official announcement. Yu Wenle: F*ck! That beast is coming to FTW? Damn, laozi Bai Cai thought about it: Lao Wei, it was the right decision for you not to play professionally. Not only is there a forest full of foreign enemies, even your own nest is full of unresolved debts! This was Wei Xiaos first time at the FTW base, but hed seen the promotional film a long time ago. This base was just like a castle F*ck! Its so big! Sorry, he mightve seen the promotional film, but the real visual impact still hit hard. The car drove all the way in, and they only got out of the car when they arrived in front of the castle. Wei Xiao leashed the husky and noticed Tang Chen with a large neck guard around his neck with a glance. God Tang You Were you in a car accident? Tang Chen went all out, Ah, I fell off my bike yesterday and damaged my neck. Chen Feng: Damned fool, can this be enough to trick Little Lunatic Wei? Tang Chen pushed on, The worst part is, I still have to play training matches when Im injured like this. Wei Xiao was confused, Youre playing in the training match? Chen Feng: It, it worked? Tang Chen was extremely aggrieved, How can I not? Its a training match that wasnt easy to obtain. I cant let everyone down. WeI Xiao was incredulous, What about your new top-laner?! Tang Chen looked at him quietly. Wei Xiao interpreted his gaze as full of grievance. F*ck! What kind of big name was this? They didnt even come for a training match? Was this person that Close had taken a liking to an ancestor or a top-laner?! Juurensha: WX youre eating so much vinegar about yourself hahahaha. And I love Tang Chen happy in his overacting. xiin: Tang Chen, youve worked hard for the sake of the team i love how theyre all kinda in on the scheme, its so fun~ Chapter 23.1: Laozi is the resentful husband! Wei Xiaos mood was complicated. He felt aggrieved for Tang Chens sake and felt even more aggrieved for Close. He was a lofty number 1 in the world. Why did he have to be taken advantage of by a newcomer! Was Close so easy to deal with? He was supposed to be a cold, indifferent, and merciless great demon king! Then, Wei Xiao remembered the events from two years ago At the time, Close had already been a looming, high up mountain for countless professional players. Wei Xiao had entered the youth training camp because hed watched the live broadcast of his single player match in the world finals. The knife stab from the thief that had turned the tables on the entire match, had broken through the championship night and made Wei Xiaos blood boil! In fact, hed been playing Glory for a long time, but the level of the students around him was just average. They would only hold onto him and call him daddy, begging him to take them flying. Winning was too easy, and Wei Xiao soon lost interest. It wasnt even as difficult as math problems. What was so fun about it? Until he saw Close. The flying thief who flew around looking for every possible opportunity, the shadow thiefs light arcs that filled the skies, the spirit thiefs sixteen-hit combo Countless extreme operations made Wei Xiaos scalp go numb. Hed stayed awake the entire night in the training camp and discovered that it was very difficult for him to repeat Closes operations. Being unable to do it made it exciting! At the time, thered been a scout in the international servers, and Wei Xiao had immediately agreed to go to the training camp. When the youth training camp was over, hed had his wish fulfilled and met Close, then soloed with him like hed wanted. Hed lost for 48 hours, but that had only left Wei Xiao even more excited. However Wei Xiao pushed back into his memories and found that Close was really quite easy to talk to. Just based on his foolish request, not only had Close agreed, hed also accompanied him and gone nuts for 48 hours. Later, his sleepwalking had acted up again, and not only did Close not kick him out of bed, he even allowed him to sleep on his arm all night long The more Wei Xiao went over things in his heart, the unhappier he grew. The cold faced, cold hearted great demon king was actually soft on the inside, and this had been discovered by other people. F*ck! Who the hell was this newcomer?! Wei Xiao was concentrating on brewing vinegar, but his doggy son had already started chasing beauty. The husky howled and pounced towards Chen Feng. Coach Chen Feng froze when he saw it coming. Wei Xiao was tugged along behind it and came back to his senses, Soybean, behave! As a serious face-con dog, Soybean was now interested in Chen Feng and aroo-arooed as it tried to go and kiss him. Chen Feng was gaping, Hus-husky? Wei Xiao worked hard to stabilize Soybeans mood and said, Dont be scared, Brother Chen. It doesnt bite, its just a little overly intimate. Chen Feng had been called her majesty the queen by his fans, not only because of his sharp tongue, but also due to his face. Why was the Double Feng (Lu Feng, Chen Feng) CP so popular? It was purely based on appearance. One just had to look at the huskys mesmerized expression to know what Coach Chen Fengs face was like! Bai Cai went downstairs and was stupefied when he saw Soybean, Old Wei, its enough for you to come. Why are you even bringing your family? Wei Xiaos tone wasnt courteous, You know how it behaves! Bai Cai was amused and explained it to everyone else, Coach, dont panic. This is a real, genuine face-con dog. It wont be able to move its legs when it sees a good-looking person. When Old Wei went to the pet shop, hed originally just wanted to buy a cat. Yet as result, this husky jumped over and clung to him without letting go. The owner of the store couldnt do anything about it and could only sell the dog at half price. Old Wei picked up a bargain! Picked up a bargain? Wei Xiao often suspected that hed been cheated by the shopkeeper! Soybean, control yourself! Wei Xiao was about to lose his hold on this guy. Bai Cai was familiar with Soybean and went over to scratch its forehead, Soybean, were you abducted and brought over by the great demon king? Soybean: Ao? He had already looked at Brother Cai enough. He bumped against him in a friendly manner before turning to launch himself at Chen Feng. Bai Cai laughed as he scolded, Youre a little bastard that abandons friendship for a pretty face. He then glanced at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao didnt receive his vague signals as he was busy pulling Soybean back. At this time, Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had also come out. Soybean looked at granny gray, then looked at the little white face and had trouble deciding between them for a while. Bai Cai was amused, Brother Soybean, youre really great. You even have a back palace harem to choose from! Wei Xiao was going crazy, Come and f*cking help me, laozi cant hold him back anymore! Bai Cai didnt care. He found it hilarious and laughed as he watched the show. Soybean suddenly stopped struggling and pounced in the opposite direction. Wei Xiao suddenly toppled forward due to inertia Careful. Wei Xiao was pulled back and prevented from falling over. Soybean wasnt concerned at all about how its owner was doing and pounced over with a cry. This was how Wei Xiao ended up pushed into the arms of the man behind him by his own doggy son. Lu Feng let out a muffled grunt as he supported both human and dog. Wei Xiao was flustered and exasperated, Soybean! If I dont stew you today, Ill Be good. The low voice was clear and light against Wei Xiaos ear. Lu Fengs left arm was at his waist, and his right hand stretched out from behind him as he took the leash from Wei Xiaos hand. Wei Xiaos body was as stiff as steel! Lu Feng held down the restless dog, Behave. Soybean the face-con dog really behaved and sat down honestly, its tongue hanging out and looking as gentle and meek as a quail. Bai Cais chin almost dropped to the ground. This was even more intense than his little stories! They hadnt even entered the base yet, but theyd already started up a family of three! He was convinced. Brother Cais pair of eyes could really see through too much! Wei Xiao turned around and saw Lu Feng. Lu Feng had gone to park the car. Dont always be angry with it. Itll still be mischievous even if you lose your temper. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng released Wei Xiao and teased the husky, Do you want to go play in the garden? Husky: Ao! Lu Feng: Ill take you there. Husky: Aroo! Wei Xiao moved a few steps and arrived at Bai Cais side. He whispered, Your captain is so versatile, he even knows dog language. Bai Cai glanced at him, Thats because its Soybean! If the dog didnt belong to you, how could it have been allowed to step through the gate of the base?! Wei Xiao shook his head, I really didnt expect that Soybean and Close would get along so well. Dont they say that licking dogs will lick until they have nothing left? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao commented, Soybean was really born as a winner of life. Bai Cai had a task to accomplish. The training match is in the afternoon. Ill show you around. Wei Xiao was about to end up with a hole in his back from someones staring and also wanted to leave, Sure. Bai Cai let everyone know, then brought Wei Xiao with him and left. As soon as Wei Xiao left, Ning Zhehan couldnt help saying, The Grandmaster is different from what I imagined! He was so young and so good looking! Yue Wenles teeth were itchy, Ill remember that face. Tang Chen found it funny, Lele, tone it down a bit. The captain will come and get you if you scare him off. Yue Wenle stared at Wei Xiao and said darkly, Brother Tang, you dont understand. Beasts will never be scared away, theyll only charge up in the face of difficulties. From a certain perspective, Old Yue understood Wei Xiao very well. Wei Xiao sidled over to Bai Cai and said in a low voice, Is your God Le fond of men? Bai Cai felt a headache coming on as soon as he heard him speak, F*cking wake up! Wei Xiao cleared his throat, Look at that gaze hes using on me. Its really warm, like love at first sight. Bai Cai: He was hammered into crying by you when he was in the reserve team. He turned from a Little Ning into an old pro; arent you clear about how this situation is in your own damned heart?! At the time, Wei Xiao had already developed his habit of reviewing the game after training. At the time, Bai Cai had been too naive and hadnt audited the video before directly forwarding it to the bosses. Yue Wenle back then was like the current Ning Zhehan, pure, innocent, and full of curiosity. Although hed been hammered into seclusion, he admired the Grandmaster in his heart. He felt that his skill was inferior and that he still needed to work hard. The Grandmaster had sent him an after-sales video again. After watching the first one, the simple and innocent Yue Wenle had been extremely touched, his heart pounding with admiration. He felt that although hed just spent 10,000 yuan, hed met a mentor and a friend, a very valuable thing. With that in mind, he clicked on the second video. He came face to face with Grandmasters personal show featuring his own fancy moves, as well as a showcase of all the ways hed lost face and ended up on the floor. The point was that the review video was only 30 minutes long while the personal show lasted for an hour and a half! Love turning into hate? Turning from a fan to a hater? These changes only required one and a half hours. To hell with mentoring, to hell with friendship, this was an old beast that had smeared him into the ground over and over again! Lele, whod experienced a social beating, grew up to become Old Yue. He was black-hearted, and his hands were vicious on the court. Wei Xiao had been indispensable in this process. Today, Yue Wenle was seeing the Grandmaster with his own eyes. This mood It was like a person whod become successful in his career who went back to his alma mater and saw the teaching director who had once chased after him to beat him up. This kind of love was deep, old, and unforgettable! Wei Xiao sighed, Your God Les psychological quality isnt good enough, hey. People have to look forward, not stare constantly at the past. Bai Cai laughed sarcastically and thought, those with bad psychological quality are a dime a dozen. You can savor it slowly, properly, in full detail when you come back. This is the training room. Bai Cai opened the door to show Wei Xiao, There are three settings, individual special training, doubles training, and five person, undifferentiated day and night training. Wei Xiao: It really is a champion team. The atmosphere is rich and powerful. This training room was very eye-catching. The equipment within was all top-grade, and the keyboards and mice were all 20,000 to 30,000 yuan each. Amazing! Bai Cai deliberately caught his interest, but refused to show him more, This is the conference room, the library, the gym, the entertainment room They went down floor by floor. Wei Xiao was left speechless, Old Bai, youre living in such a wealthy mansion. Why are you still so greedy for money? Bai Cai snarked at him, Is there anyone who would complain about having too much money? Wei Xiao: Yes. Bai Cai was just about to ask who that fool was when Wei Xiao added, Look at me, Ive saved up three million and dont even know how I should spend it. Bai Cai couldnt hold back, You fool! This guys life mission was really to pull aggro! Wei Xiao corrected him, Its a fool who has three million in savings and no interest in spending it. Bai Cai: One of the biggest mistakes hed made in his life was getting to know this beast. The two of them sniped back and forth, then Wei Xiao thought of the matter that was weighing on his heart, Whats the matter with your new top-lane? Is he really so amazing that he wont even come when invited to the training match? Bai Cai finally found an opportunity to bring the topic back to the main point, Hes pretty amazing. Wei Xiao was worried and upset. Close likes him that much? The corner of Bai Cais lips twitched. I cant give an evaluation on the Captains affairs. Wei Xiao couldnt suppress the sour taste to his words, I looked through the list of all newcomers in the past two years and didnt find anyone who was worthy of Closes attention. Bai Cai thought to himself: Why dont you go beyond the past two years? Of course, he wouldnt say it. It wasnt time yet. Tone it down a bit. Bai Cai disdained him, That vinegar smell is going to reach the heavens! Wei Xiao choked. Bai Cai: Do you know what you look like now? A resentful woman. Wei Xiao would rather lose the troops than lose the fight, How can laozi be a resentful wife?! Bai Cai: Look at your current appearance, youre just like a typical boudoir girl He hadnt finished speaking when Wei Xiao immediately explained himself, Laozi is the resentful husband! Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao clarified, Complaining husband, get it? Husband, not wife! F*ck, was that your key point?! Brother Cai gave up! What made Bai Cai stumble and almost fall on the way to the elevator was that Wei Xiao even sighed and said very frankly, Old Bai, how come that damned newcomer is so lucky? Im so jealous. Really. The words that Wei Xiao said were things that Bai Cai didnt even dare use in his short stories! If he wrote them, the fans would probably scold him for bullshitting, for being unrealistic, for being false! However, it was all real! So real that he wanted to block his ears and turn deaf! xiin: WX, youre really seasoning yourself with your own vinegar Chapter 23.2: Was that damned new guy finally willing to come out? The training match was in the afternoon. As they neared the afternoon, everyone queued for a match to warm up. Wei Xiao was also eager and wanted to try, but he was only here to watch the match and could only stare on with wide eyes. Tang Chen dutifully put his poor acting skills to use again, Ouch He glanced at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao received the message and helped him curse, That spicy chicken newcomer! Tang Chen continued to look at him, Ouch, ow Wei Xiao continued to help him scold the guy, Hes a lazy bastard that doesnt even come for training matches! Tang Chen was having difficulty continuing the act, Owwww Wei Xiao was very distressed for God Tangs sake, F*ck, what a dick! What was fortunate was that Wei Xiao had only cursed this guy in his heart. Chen Feng couldnt watch on anymore. Could that even be called acting? This was called an uncouth show! He glanced at Tang Chen, Are you constipated? Tang Chen: ??? Chen Feng: If your neck isnt broken, then just deal with it. Tang Chen looked at Wei Xiao again. He was practically about to start crying. Wei Xiao couldnt help himself and started, How about Everyone looked at him abruptly, their gazes all pinned on the same thing. Except for Lu FengCChe was debugging his keyboard, his long fingers tapping lightly on the keys. Wei Xiao: Ill go find a backrest for God Tang? Everyone in the training room: Tang Chen: F*ck! Wei Xiao: Ah? Tang Chen hurriedly added, I mean, thank you! But theres no need. Im fine, I can do it, its really no problem. Looking at this forced smile and listening to the grievance in his voice Heartache! Those who knew the truth and those who didnt all felt heartache and distress! God Tang acknowledged one thing. He was only suited to playing games in this life. As for acting and so on, he should leave it to the professionals! When the time came, L&P built a custom room and invited FTW. Wei Xiao sat beside Chen Feng and watched the projection from a center seat. Both teams entered the room, and Wei Xiao saw L&Ps line up. As the runner ups for last years championship, L&P was a powerful team with a well-deserved reputation. The five members of the team were all celebrities on the worlds personal ranking list. Gary was L&Ps strongest player, but he wasnt L&Ps team captain. It was funny. As a North American team, the captain of L&P was a Chinese personCC Yuan Ze. He was once the most invincible top-lane in FTW, guarding the canyon with a double-handed sword. If he guarded the pass, 10,000 troops still wouldnt be enough to get throughCCMarshal! He was also the senior whod taken care of Close the most, brought him into Glory, won the world cup with him, and then left him at the peak of their glory. The next year, Yuan Ze debuted as a L&P player and sent his old employer FTW into a round trip for the finals. It was also in that year that he gave up his position in the singles competition when he learned that Lu Feng was participating and never signed up for the singles competition ever again. As the singles participant for L&P, Gary fell beneath Lu Fengs blade again and again. However, FTW couldnt win against L&P. Lu Feng also didnt have a chance to win against Yuan Ze. This kindness, gratitude, grievance, and resentment was something that everyone in Glory knew. Wei Xiao was even able to recite it all from memory. He looked at the IDs and frowned, Yuan Ze isnt playing? Chen Feng sneered, Not sending up their second team is already considered as showing respect for us. Wei Xiao: He might be angry, but the gap between FTW and L&P was really quite significant. Even if they really arranged for their second team to play, it would still be hard to say if FTW would win or not. On the L&P side, everyone other than their top-lane was from their starting line-up. Especially when it came to Gary, he immediately became excited when he saw Lu Feng and typed crazily in his crippled Chinese, Close, wait for me to explode you! Lu Feng ignored him. Old G amused himself, Ten, Im going to explode you ten times! Chen Feng was really disdainful, Has Gary changed Chinese teachers? He now sounds like a non-mainstream speaker rather than a northerner? Wei Xiao: Its not non-mainstream. Chen Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: Think about it, think carefully, this is clearly a blind imitation. Looking at this Wei Xiaoxiao who was so clear on how to kill culture, Chen Feng was very worried! Because it was a user-defined battle, the two teams soon entered the BP interface. The so-called BP, was also an important part of a MOBA game. Glory had 11 heroes and over 100 talents. Players had a myriad of choices and countless strategies available to them. BP was the abbreviation of Ban and Pick. The former meant to disallow a hero from the match, and the latter was where heroes were selected. As the name suggested, the BP stage was a stage where heroes were disabled and chosen. Although they hadnt yet officially entered the canyon, the sparks of warfare were already ignited. Banning was a whole area of study, and choosing heroes was an even bigger school of study. If banning was used well, they could restrain the other side during their lineup setup. If successful, then one would have already won half the game. If they didnt use such tactics for a MOBA game, then they werent even qualified to play the game. Wei Xiao stared at the projection, his heart cold. L&P played really dirty. They had six ban spots, and they were all allocated to Close. Almost all of the heroes Lu Feng was most powerful with were banned. Lu Fengs hero pool was very deep. As a champion of the singles competition, there wasnt anything he couldnt use. However, being able to use it didnt mean it could just be used like that. The hero lineup, restraint, and what was strong in the current version all needed to be considered in 5v5 matches In short, there were too many variables to consider. This was why there were so many usable jungler heroes. Even if Lu Feng could use other heroes after his core heroes were banned, it still meant that FTWs core line up had been infinitely compressed. L&Ps BP setup had really attacked FTW. If Lu Feng was suppressed, then FTW would have already lost halfway. This sentence was one that had circulated around the international arena for a long time. Wei Xiao was angry watching it, but he didnt do anything. FTW took Lu Feng as their absolute core. As their core, he could only be oppressed like this. There were also teams in domestic competitions who dealt with FTW like this, but the players had different ability levels, and it was impossible for a domestic team without a top-class player to target Lu Feng continuously. As long as they couldnt target Lu Feng to death, FTW would still have a chance to win the game. As the head coach, Chen Feng had absolute say during the BP segment. He wouldnt force anyone to pick up a certain hero, but as a spectator, he could also see the situation on the other side. This was very important, since he could remind the players in the game to make more accurate decisions. After ten minutes of back and forth, the line up was determined. Although Lu Feng had been suppressed, Old G didnt have it easy, either. Since they were all aiming at junglers, then they would target them until the end. The remaining old, weak, sick and disabled hero options would all rely on their personal strength! After the match began, Wei Xiao forgot to even blink. Professional players would never perform the same kind of brainless rush that casual passerby players did. Every step and every action was well thought out in advance. The support Bai Cai was responsible for opening up the field of vision and feeling out the whereabouts of the other team. The mid-lane Ning Zhehan stepped cautiously and focused on leveling while keeping an eye on the dynamics between the rest of the team. The bottom lanes Yue Wenle looked very relaxed, but in fact, his position was the riskiest because junglers liked to target the ADC who were weak in the early stages and became crazy in the later stages. The jungler was Lu Feng. He could finish off the jungler creeps very quickly and didnt waste a single second of his time while seizing the resources in the canyon. The top-lane Wei Xiao was a little worried about Tang Chen. His neck situation was so serious, yet he had to concentrate and slowly grind down the health of his opponent top-laner. He was under great pressure. Although L&Ps top-lane wasnt Yuan Ze, this persons operations level was also top notch, and his skills were slightly superior to even the experienced Tang Chen as they fought in the same lane. Wei Xiao vaguely sensed that the situation wasnt good. This top-laner might make a breakthrough, and as it turned out In the first 15 minutes, the two sides had a lot of back and forth, and nobody held any big advantage. At 10:45, Tang Chen was solo killed by L&Ps top-laner, leaving a sudden gap in their defenses. L&P was like a wolf pack that had scented blood as they flew over and aced FTW in a 5v4 fight! Wei Xiao clenched his fists tight. He really wished he could go up and play! F*ck! They were such bullies! God Tang was retired, but they were still abusing him so cruelly. It was too aggravating! L&P was a team with very good operations. If they were given an opportunity to snowball, then one just had to wait for the avalanche! 40 minutes later, FTW was powerless and lost the match. The training room fell into deep silence. Ning Zhehans experience was limited. He clutched at the mouse tightly, and his face was pale. Yue Wenle also stared fixedly at the screen. Chen Feng looked over, Not bad. You guys managed to hold on for 40 minutes. Ning Zhehan was ashamed, I made too many mistakes and was cut to death by Gary. In the last group fight, Ning Zhehan had died too early and hadnt played out the DPS he should have output. However, Lu Feng had also killed L&Ps mage, so the other side had also been lacking a major DPS dealer. Tang Chen wasnt acting this time. He spoke sincerely, Im old and cant keep up. FTWs lineup this time favored the later stages. If theyd been able to hold on for another five minutes, it would have been hard to say who would win and lose. Unfortunately Chen Feng looked at him, Still alright? Tang Chens neck really did hurt a little. He rubbed his temples, What can we do if Im not? Wei Xiao was to the side, his heart clenching fiercely. His hand was clenched even more tightly, but what could he do? He couldnt do anything! Chen Feng glanced at Lu Feng. Lu Feng took off his headset. Change people. Wei Xiao turned his head sharply to look at him. Was that damned new guy finally willing to come out? Who couldve known that Lu Fengs gaze would shift to him. Their eyes met, and Wei Xiaos heart thumped hard. Lu Feng: Come play? Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide, Me? He pointed at himself. The room became even quieter. It was even quieter than it had been when they just lost the game earlier! It was a very big training room, but it seemed that only the sound of Wei Xiaos breathing was left. Lu Feng looked at him, L&P is very strong. Want to try? Wei Xiao was tempted as soon as this remark came out! L&P was really very strong. All five people were very strong. Especially this substitute top-lane that pressured God Tang Wei Xiao was uncertain, Can I? Tang Chen couldnt help himself, F*ck, if you cant, who can?! Hurry up and get over here, laozis neck is about to break! To hell with putting on an act, just drive the kid over. That was the real way to do it! Wei Xiao, whod just been pressed into the e-sports chair by the seriously injured Tang Chen was still a little confused. Tang Chen: Hurry, log in to your account. Wei Xiao: Oh He hadnt reacted yet. Why did he need to switch accounts? Couldnt he just use Tang Chens? On the L&P side, the non-mainstream Old G began to yak on again, Whys there a change- who ix Professor? This Martian text made Wei Xiaos eyes ache. He touched the keyboard and typed out two words to calm himself down. And then The FTW training room became even more f*cking quiet! Inside the battle room chat boxCC Gary: Whys there a change- who ix Professor? Professor: Your daddy. Juurensha: Finally forced WX to play! And yesss for face-con Soybean (hes going to love living here, isnt he) apricot: why does this novel have so many good lines T.T xiin: YES FINALLY Chapter 24: They wanted to follow him and cooperate with him. There was a puff of sound as Bai Cai laughed out loud. This was indeed the beast. Two years ago, Brother Cai, whod fought with him from north to south was now filled with all sorts of emotionsCC Wei Xiao was someone who was crazy and wanton, but that didnt affect his strength. It wasnt a big deal to be arrogant. What made it so irritating was that this person had the skills to back up his arrogance! Gary was in a daze for two seconds, ??? Wei Xiaos mood calmed down and he typed out another few words, Your dad. This time, it wasnt just Bai Cai, even Ning Zhehan was amused into laughter. Tang Chen didnt concern himself acting disabled anymore. He patted Wei Xiaos shoulder, Little brat, youre pretty good! He really had some damned skills. It wasnt fun enough to just use Chinese to provoke Old G, he even worried that he wouldnt understand and switched to English. Badass! The corner of Lu Fengs lips curved. Start. Chen Feng rubbed his forehead. He suspected that hed have to rely on EVE (painkillers) to survive. When Little Lunatic Wei joined the team, his migraines might become incurable. Gary was a little confused, but theyd unfortunately already entered the BP interface, and he couldnt say anything else. The atmosphere here at FTW was different from before. Although Chen Feng had a headache, he had to admit that Wei Xiao was born with an ability to inspire everyone. Although they were faced with the brink of death for this match, the two words Wei Xiao had typed out had swept away the teams depressed mood. If ordinary people encountered this kind of situation, how could they trash talk? They wouldnt even know where to put their left and right hands, but this boy His heart was so big that nobody could match up to it! Chen Feng exhaled softly and asked Wei Xiao, Can you use divine warrior? This was a relatively all-purpose top-lane hero. It was also relatively powerful in the current version of the game. Wei Xiao: Not a problem. Lu Feng didnt say anything. He was continued to be targeted like crazy by L&P and selected an engineer without significant DPS to play in the jungle. The hero selection that came after didnt hold much suspense. It was just that L&Ps jungler hesitated for a while before selecting a hero. It was estimated that Old G had been a little annoyed by Wei Xiaos trash talk and wanted to find a way to get back at him. Finally, Old G took the devil thief that tended towards DPS. It was clear that he wanted to go wild. This custom training room was set up for training matches between professional players and made available by the game organizers. After entering, everything was the same as it would be in a real competition arena. It was impossible for both sides to talk to each other during the match, and there were just calm operations, hot-blooded fights, and if they wanted to speak, it was limited to communication within their own team. Lu Feng had always been the team commander. He didnt say much, but every sentence was precise, Bai Cai, follow the bottom lane. Bai Cai: Kay. After Lu Feng finished killing the first jungle creep, he said to Wei Xiao, Im coming to gank the top-lane in a bit. Wei Xiao was in the top lane and was currently fighting for troops with the opposing top-laner, Sure, this kids a little caught up in it. Hed just finished speaking when he aimed and hit the opposite top-laner, shaving off a segment of his health. The top-laner was a little dazed. It was obvious that he hadnt expected this Professor to have this level of detailed operations. Tang Chen could be considered a well-known top-laner in China. The substitutes ego was a little inflated from being able to pressure him down, and he felt that this new Professor was just a new king with a runaway mouth. Who couldve guessed First Blood! When the system prompt came out, even Chen Feng was stunned. Wei Xiao had killed Gary! Far away in L&Ps base in North America, Gary cursed. Fuck! In one corner of the training room, the black haired man sitting on the sofa stared at the screen, Not bad, it seems that Close has found a treasure. The operations just now had been really eye-catching. Wei Xiao and L&Ps top-laner had been fighting very fiercely in their lane. At first glance, he seemed impulsive and reckless, his aura full of eagerness to play and full of flaws. Old G whod been provoked at the start of the game had long made up his mind to gank Wei Xiao until he collapsed, so hed come up to the top lane after clearing the first wave of jungle creeps. Who couldve guessed Wei Xiaos attacks might be fierce and reckless, but his sense of smell was extremely keen. Old G had just crouched in the grass to ambush him when Wei Xiao pretended to move forward, then bypassed L&Ps top-laner with a flash to attack Gary directly! In Glory, there was a benign relationship of restraint between heroes. For example, the junglers threatened the c-positions, while the top-lane heroes could suppress the junglers. Wei Xiaos surprise attack had caught Old G off-guard. The devil thief was incredibly fragile in the early stages. When he was smashed by a set of skills from the divine warrior, he didnt even have a chance to react before he exploded on the spot! Wei Xiao: Close, come quickly, the kills are about to fly away! Lu Feng showed himself the moment that Old G fell to the ground, taking away the life of the L&Ps top-laner who had just been about to dodge behind the tower. Six minutes into the start of the game, FTW took down two heads! A great advantage! Wei Xiao smiled, This son is unfilial, hes always thinking of crouching in the grass and attacking his father! It was fortunate that L&P couldnt hear their conversation. Otherwise, Old Gs state of mind would explode, and he would try to fight to the bitter end with Wei Xiao for the entire game. Although it was true that Old G had indeed gotten a little caught up in the game. Chen Feng looked on coldly and had to admire Closes judgement. Wei Xiao was really a talented player who could only be encountered by luck and couldnt be found no matter how hard you tried. The upper level of his personal ability was extremely high. Whats more, he had this innate centripetal force. In a team game, no matter how fierce a person was, it was still difficult to clap with one hand. However, if there was a sun in the game, then the momentum of the team would be very different. E-sports tested the quality of the players. Quality wasnt just based on their operations and understanding of the game, and was even more focused on their performance in a team. Integration, overall command, cooperation, and leadership. Not a single one of these could be omitted. An excellent commander didnt only have command of the team; they were also able to integrate seamlessly into the team and leave no gaps. If they could build a team where all five people were commanders, then this team would be a true tightly-knit team, an iron barrel that nobody could break! Wei Xiao had the ability to easily mobilize the teams emotions. His innate passion and fighting intent could easily affect others. Not to mention the teammates who were fighting with him, even the bystander Chen Feng could feel it. They wanted to follow him and cooperate with him. Their front was ever triumphant! Fifty minutes later, FTW pushed their way up towards L&Ps territory. They managed to cut down everyone beneath their knives and win the game despite the other sides fierce, angry resistance! Victory! Ning Zhehan shouted out in excitement, We won! They won! Theyd actually won against the second place in last years global finals! If news of this was leaked out, the entire Chinese Glory circle would explode! It had to be known that in the past two years, two full years, the two seed teams from the China competition zone hadnt even made it to finalists competition, let alone the actual finals! But now, theyd just won against the runner-up in the global finals! Even if it was just a training match, even if L&Ps ace Yuan Ze hadnt played still, theyd won! Wei Xiao was in a great mood. Thinking about how he also had three hours of solo, his mood became even better. Isnt it just a mere training match? Lets do it again. What was called blood boiling? This was it. Ning Zhehans cheeks were flushed red, Lets go, again! People needed to have confidence. Once they had confidence, they could give full play to 200% of their ability. Chen Feng poured a bucket of cold water over them, L&P has switched people. The previous substitute had gone off, and the new ID was L&P.Marshal. Marshal was Yuan Shuai in Chinese. L&Ps Marshal was also once FTWs Marshal, the man with a well-deserved title as the God of the Top-lane, Yuan Ze! Tang Chens eyes were full of a fierce light, F*ck, this dog Yuan Ze has no good intentions! For him to go up on stage now was to suppress Wei Xiaos momentum. To put it more bluntly, his goal was to hammer Wei Xiao into seclusion! This old thing was really evil! Chen Feng glanced at Lu Feng, then looked at Wei Xiao, Hell target you like crazy. Wei Xiao stretched his fingers, Nothing better than that. Lu Feng: Start. His tone was relaxed and not worried at all. Chen Feng paused for a moment and didnt say anything else. As Yuan Zes former teammate, he understood Yuan Zes bad habits all too well. Yuan Ze was the singles champion of 2017. At the time, FTWs goal had been to collect all three championship crowns into their bag and refuse to let go of a single one of them. Only one person per team could participate in the singles competition. At the time, Close had only just joined the team and was still inexperienced. The coaching team had rejected him for the position since the remaining four people in the team, including their support position, had the ability to win the singles. Unfortunately, only one person could participate. At the time, everyone in the circle had said that watching the immortals fight in FTW would be more interesting to watch than the global singles finals! It had really been a fight between gods and immortals. Yuan Ze was ultimately the one to represent the whole team. And hed won the singles title without any suspense. It was difficult to measure how strong Yuan Zes strength was now, because he had never participated in the singles competition since then. However, one thing was certain. He was at least as good as Lu Feng. The Wei Xiao who was still young now was definitely not a match for him. Facts proved this to be true. After Yuan Ze came up, L&Ps BP was much more casual. They didnt aim at Lu Feng very much and instead went through the BP as usual, giving FTW many opportunities. Chen Feng wasnt polite either. He took three heroes that were strong in the current version of the game, and also targeted Yuan Ze with them while he was at it. From a hero selection perspective, Yuan Zes blade gunner was weaker than Wei Xiaos devil warrior. However, even from the start of the game, Yuan Ze began to push his way down the top lane like crazy, without a care for the devil warrior. Wei Xiao tried to attack him several times, but Yuan Ze was as slippery as a fish. Not only did he not miss a single soldier, he also didnt lose any health. This was a huge difference in strength. It was not only a difference in personal technique, but also in experience. Chen Feng let out a sigh. He could already foresee the ending. As Tang Chen had said before the start of the game, Yuan Ze had come to target Wei Xiao. Gary didnt provide much support to the top lane for most of the game. Instead, he frantically pressured the middle and bottom lanes so that Lu Feng had no choice but to support the rest of the team and couldnt go up to the top lane. There was only Yuan Ze and Wei Xiao in the top lane. In the early stage, Wei Xiao was unable to suppress the blade gunner, and in the later stages, he could only be passively beaten up. Twenty minutes later. Marshal kills Professor! Marshal kills Professor! Marshal kills Professor! Previously, Gary had said that he wanted to kill Lu Feng 10 times. In this match, Yuan Ze killed Wei Xiao 10 times. Chen Fengs heart was chilly. He knew that Wei Xiaos heart was big, but hed encountered this old dog Yuan Ze before joining the team Professor kills Marshal! Tang Chen exclaimed, F*ck! This little kid can really do it! Chen Feng was stunned and looked inconceivably at the screen. Wei Xiao had single-handedly killed Yuan Ze? Hed been abused and killed 10 times. How could he actually manage to fight back? Unfortunately, FTW was already on the downtrend. Not only had Wei Xiao been suppressed, but both Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had also been overwhelmed. Even if Lu Feng could contain Gary, it was still difficult to hold down the fort. Defeat! FTW lost the last training match. The game was over, but the customized battle room hadnt been closed yet. A line of text came out on the chat box. Marshal: The child on the opposite side is very good. Would you like to come to L&P? Tang Chen was enraged, Can this old animal Yuan Ze be any more shameless? Wei Xiao typed expressionlessly, Sure. Chen Feng, Tang Chen, Ning Zhehan, Yue Wenle: ??? Bai Cai was very calm: Oh, its coming Far away in North America, L&Ps people were also confused. Wei Xiao finished his words, I would like to ask if L&P is short on explosives. Ill take some along with me and guarantee that you guys are sent flying on the spot. Juurensha: Oh boy WX, your mouth. xiin: i love Bai Cais zen. hes seen it all now. Chapter 25: Why do you think Im here? Isnt it all for the sake of Closes~ One sentence was enough to make the people in FTW laugh. Even Ning Zhehan, whod felt upset and guilty about losing the game, regained his equilibrium. The chat box was quiet for two seconds Yuan Ze typed, Interesting. I like you. Wei Xiaos fingers were flying, There are enough people who like daddy to encircle the earth three times, but I cant acknowledge so many sons. The onlooker Little Ning sucked in a breath: The opposite side was the most powerful top-laner and a legend in the world of Glory, yet you still dare to provoke him. Grandmaster, youre amazing! Yuan Ze sent over a laughing emoticon, but his words werent directed at Wei Xiao: Close, where did you find this treasure? Isnt he so cute? The last person whod said that the Grandmaster was cute had already been sent off into seclusion. Wei Xiao was just about to start Lu Feng disbanded the room. Close had been the one who built the custom room. As soon as he clicked on disband, everyone exited the room. Wei Xiao: ! He lifted up his head and looked at Lu Feng. Lu Fengs aura was cold and indifferent, making it difficult for others to see what he was feeling. Wei Xiao was unreconciled, The words I just typed hadnt even been sent out yet Running off after antagonizing the other party was more his style. This kind of feeling of being defeated without a fight really wasnt cool! Lu Feng glanced at him, Theres no need to waste time with pointless people. It was really true that Close and Marshal didnt get along! Wei Xiao wanted to say more, but then he heard Lu Feng ask lightly, Isnt it better to spend the time soloing with me? Wei Xiao: !!! To hell with being unreconciled, to hell with Marshal, Wei Xiaos eyes and heart were full of Close! FTW had won a training match, so he could go and solo with Lu Feng for three hours! F*ck! Wei Xiaos scalp went numb at the thought of this! Chen Feng knocked on the table and cooled down Little Lunatic Weis mood, Nobody is going anywhere. Well review the matches while theyre still fresh. Wei Xiaos eyes were burning with passion. That was fine; good things should be saved for last. Hed been waiting for two years, and this brief amount of time wouldnt make a difference. Besides, he also wanted to see the previous matches. Vision and senses were limited when one was immersed in the game. More problems could be seen when they jumped back out and went through the recap. He wanted to see the gap between himself and Yuan Ze. Antagonizing him was one thing, but disdaining him was something else; Marshals strength couldnt be underestimated. If there was a chance, Wei Xiao still wanted to fight against him again. Of course. He, who wasnt playing professionally, was very unlikely to match up with Yuan Ze. Even if he really had enough dog shit luck to match up with him, it wouldnt have much significance. There wasnt the same level of professional tension and stimulation in a casual passerby game. Chen Feng had prepared the video a long time ago and had already clicked to start the replay. He originally hadnt planned to do the replay now out of consideration for the players mood. Going through the game on the spot after being hammered into seclusion generally didnt have a good effect. Players hadnt yet emerged from their sense of loss, and it was difficult to look at the replay objectively. They may not be able to face their own mistakes or handle reviewing each others top plays. To sum it up, their mentality was unbalanced, and a review usually ended up as a waste of time. Chen Feng didnt concern himself about these things today. Although he was very worried about Wei Xiao, Chen Feng had to admit that this kid was really very gifted. Under Marshals overwhelming pressure that was as heavy as a high mountain, not only did Wei Xiao show no signs of losing his composure, he even talked trash and antagonized the other party. His heart was really big! His few refreshing words had irritated Yuan Ze into not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and it had also pushed up FTWs mood. Especially for newcomers like Ning Zhehan, whose emotions were the most likely to fluctuate. His depression would come on quickly, but his happiness would also light up quickly. With a trash talk machine like Wei Xiao around, Little Ning probably wouldnt need a psychological counselor Since the entire team was in a good mood, Chen Feng was ready to strike while the iron was hot and start the recap process. He played back the third match first, the one that Yuan Ze had participated in. This match was their worst game, but it was the most representative of their strength. After all, an L&P with Marshal in it was the real L&P. This powerful team hadnt shown their real strength during the training match, but the real distance in strength between them and FTW could still be felt. Going over a replay wasnt an easy task. A match might only last for 50 minutes, but the replay could often last as long as five hours. The replay needed to be viewed from multiple perspectives. For example, the global perspective versus the perspective from each lane. When it came to specific details, they would play it back multiple times and even go over it in slow mode. Chen Feng had been a coach for many years, and his vision was extremely sharp. Even though he hadnt watched the video replay over again, he could still tell where the focus of this match was. The biggest short board in the third match had been Ning Zhehan, followed by Yue Wenle. These two c-positions (core DPS dealers) had been pressured too hard by L&P, particularly Ning Zhehan. As the middle laner, they would lose almost a third of the control over the jungle area on their own side once he was under pressure. Fortunately, Lu Feng was the jungler. If it had been anyone else, even if it was the opposing Gary, they would probably have been ganked until they exploded. Yue Wenles side had barely been able to hold on, but as a DPS that was supposed to deal heavy damage in the later stages, hed been unable to defeat the other sides marksman even once. They hadnt just lost some of their lane soldiers, but had also allowed their opponent to become stronger earlier. After a team battle where L&P had made no mistakes, FTW slowly fell behind step by step. On the support side, Chen Feng didnt say much. This didnt mean that Bai Cai had been amazing, but that hed been too mediocre. This was Brother Cais problem. He didnt pull people ahead, but he also didnt drag them back. There was always the feeling that he hadnt given it his all, but he couldnt really be blamed for not making mistakes. One commentator had said it brilliantlyCCGod Bai was missing a soul. He was very strong. Otherwise, he wouldnt have been brought over by FTW, but he could be stronger. However, hed never play up to his full strength. Finally, Chen Feng talked about Wei Xiao. He paused for a moment, Excellent. It was only one word, but coming from the sharp tongued and poisonous Chen Feng, it was enough to get onto the hot search. Those whod been given this evaluation by Chen Feng had all become pillars of the China competition zone. For example, the most recent one was Asleep. Sleep God had made his debut in 2020 and led his team to the global finals in the same year. The team 3U was very promising, and theyd been expected to advance to the knockout stages. Unfortunately, 3U was unlucky and met the European champion team in the finalists round. Theyd been beaten bloody and sent back to China. Although theyd lost, Asleeps performance had still been very eye-catching. He and his vice-captain had even rushed into the semi-finals for the doubles competition. In the end, theyd only won third place, but he was still the best player of the new generation. At the time, someone had gone through previous recordings of Chen Fengs live stream videos and created an expression pack. Coach Chen Fengs beautiful face had almost no dead angles, and his expression when he said Excellent was extremely cold and striking. It had instantly become popular in the Glory circle and become a favorite in everyones expression pack storage. Now, Chen Feng was using this word for Wei Xiao. Although hed been killed 10 times by Yuan Ze, Wei Xiao had done everything he could. Hed held Yuan Ze in check, even if it meant using up his own life. Finally, hed even found a chance to kill Yuan Ze. Being able to keep his opponent in check in the top lane already qualified him. If he could suppress the other person or even tie up two people, it was considered very good. However, the top-laner that Wei Xiao had faced wasnt an ordinary professional player. He was a top-laner whod been pushed into the Temple that showcased the strongest in Glory. It was already amazing for Wei Xiao to achieve this much. FTW was going over the replay seriously, and in North America, L&P was also doing the same. The match they went over first was the second match where theyd lost. The black haired man stared unblinkingly at the screen, then laughed low after a long time, This little friend is really powerful. Gary was sour, I dont see it. Yuan Ze: The divine warrior isnt one of his main heroes. Gary made a sound of disdain, How can he even go in the top lane if the divine warrior isnt one of his main heroes? This was one of the heroes that every top lane player must be good at, because the play rate was really too high, and it was impossible for them not to have practiced it. Yuan Ze laughed slightly, and light flashed deep in his eyes, Hes a jungler. Gary: Ah? L&Ps coach frowned, How could that be? FTW doesnt need a jungler substitute. Yuan Ze: Not a substitute. A starter. Old G practically leapt up, Close is retiring? Hes only 21, yet hes retiring? He Yuan Zes gaze was one he reserved for fools, Do you know where you can be considered stronger than Close? Old G: ??? Yuan Ze flicked him on the forehead, Youre stupider than him. Old G: F*ck! Yuan Ze ignored everyone and replayed the second match again. After a full two hours, he sighed, A genius. It really makes one envious. Hed spoken in Chinese. Only Gary, whod learned a little bit of half-assed Chinese from him, could barely understand his words. CCGenius. What Marshal hated most was geniuses. This kind of existence that had been born higher than ordinary people made him want to personally destroy it. Although Chen Feng praised Wei Xiao, he didnt leave out any of the shortcomings that needed to be pointed out. He went through the video frame by frame, enlarging Wei Xiaos mistakes more and more, each word and sentence enough to cause people to collapse. However Wei Xiao nodded constantly, Yes! I was stupid and mentally retarded here. I didnt think that the gun (the blade gunners weapon was a machine gun) could still manage to shoot under my broadsword, f*ck, why am I so stupid Chen Feng: As a poisonous tongued Coach who scolded more fiercely the more the player cried, he actually felt a little embarrassed to scold Wei Xiao. After all, no matter how he scolded him, he couldnt do it as fiercely as how the little madman was scolding himself. Hed lost. Coach Chen had actually lost in terms of poisonous tongues! After the replay was over, Wei Xiaos enthusiasm had really taken over, and he really wished he could go and find L&P for another training match right now so that he could make up for the mistakes just now and regain his dignity! Of course, this was impossible. Lu Feng stood up, Its about enough. Everyone is free to do as they like. After all, it was the off-season, and it wasnt necessary to be so tense all the time. Relaxing properly was also necessary. As soon as he finished saying this, the passion Wei Xiao had regarding fighting against L&P faded instantly. He looked eagerly at Lu Feng, Solo! Lu Feng looked at him, Not hungry? Wei Xiao: No! Lu Feng: Im hungry. Ah Wei Xiao started chattering again, Eating isnt a big deal, but solo is. How about we play two rounds first Lu Feng stopped walking so suddenly that Wei Xiao almost smacked into his back. Lu Feng turned to look at him, Eat more, and we can add an hour. Wei Xiao: Holy shit! How could Close be such a great person?! What counts as eating more? Wei Xiao was starting to calculate. Lu Feng thought about it, Compared to God Tang. The innocent Tang Chen whod just been shot at lying down, ??? What do you mean, Old Lu, what do you mean?! Are you saying that I eat too much? Yingyingying, doesnt our FTW have a lot of money? Are you unable to afford it if laozi eats more?! Tang Chen was now addicted to acting and toppled sideways onto Chen Fengs shoulder, Hes abandoning me. Seeing that Im retiring, he wont give me food anymore. Chen Feng ended up stumbling from his sudden weight, You arent even satisfied after eating two king crabs for a meal. Who can f*cking afford to raise you?! Tang Chen: Ah, retirees have no human rights. The e-sports circle is really as cruel as the cold winter. Wei Xiaos sparkling eyes came leaning over, God Tang, lets go eat! Tang Chen: Your gaze doesnt look like you want to eat dinner, it looks like you want to eat me! FTWs food was really very good. The dinner made by their special chef was delicious and appetizing, and it was completely different from the teams next door that ate takeaway every day. FTW really lived up to its name as the legendary health club. Wei Xiao was very enthusiastic about dinner for the sake of solo. He ate three times the amount of a normal meal in one go. Tang Chen sighed emotionally, Its great to be young and full of passion. After dinner, Lu Feng had some work to deal with. Wei Xiao had no choice but to be dragged around by Soybean for a post-meal walk. Based on the principle that if he had to suffer, his friends should too, Wei Xiao dragged Bai Cai along with him. Bai Cai was even more of a geek than he was, You might be f*cking willing to get walked by the dog, but laozi isnt willing! Wei Xiao: Look at how much Soybean likes you. How could you be such a callous uncle? Bai Cai looked at Soybean Soybean had seen more handsome guys now and was now full of disdain towards this clear vegetable soup, Aro, aroo. It was quite perfunctory. Bai Cai was so angry that his heart ached: The dog was just like its owner, they were two of a kind! Before long, Lu Feng sent over a message, Im done. Wei Xiao immediately handed the leash over to Bai Cai, Brother, Im handing my son over to you! Bai Cais mouth was twitching, Do you even f*cking know what you look like right now? Wei Xiao: Ah? Bai Cai sniped at him, Like a thirsty Wei Xiao interjected, Slut? Bai Cai: F*ck! Wei Xiao blinked at him. One word from him had almost choked Bai Cai to death. Why do you think Im here? Isnt it all for the sake of Closes~ skills! Bai Cai: Go wild! Continue going wild, you little boy! Sooner or later, youre going to end up dying in bed! Juurensha: Remember what you just said WX! xiin: Wei Xiao, your mouth, its precious. Chapter 26.1: Sure enough... He liked Close the most! Wei Xiao ran the whole way back. As he bounced up the steps three at a time, he was practically humming. He ran into Yue Wenle in the main hall, and Old Yue stared at him in a way that made a shiver run down his back, Are you staying over tonight? It was only when he asked that Wei Xiao realized that this was a problem It was already 8 oclock in the evening. It would be midnight after he soloed with Lu Feng for four hours, and it wouldnt be easy to return home at that time. The base is so big. How could it lack a place for me to sleep? There was nobody who could beat Wei Xiaoxiao when it came to self-awareness. Yue Wenle chuckled eerily, giving his handsome little white face a rather psychotic, seductive feel, Thats great, Ill be waiting for you. Wei Xiao shivered, Close is looking for me. Im going up first. Yue Wenle: Go, then. Wei Xiao bowed his head and sent Bai Cai a WeChat message, Old Bai, you have to protect me tonight! Bai Cai: Why? It was hard to type with one hand while holding onto a dog. Wei Xiao: Im afraid my virginity cant be saved! Bai Cai was surprised, Youre f*cking still chaste? Wei Xiao: Get lost, laozis virgin body is still pure and fragrant! Bai Cai: He didnt want to hear about this at all. Really. He wanted to wash out his ears and brain from out of fear that hed be assassinated by a thief. Wei Xiao was still going on, Like I said, your God Le likes men. The gaze he used to look at me just now was really full of unexpressed deep feelings. He asked me if I was staying the night. I was thinking that since Close and I would be at it until so late, it wouldnt make sense to go back, so I said Id be saying. Guess what he did? He said hed be waiting for me! What is he doing waiting for me at midnight? Im afraid its for the sake of climbing into my bed. Bai Cai finished listening to this voice message, and his brain felt like it was cramping, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: ? Bai Cai: Go and get lost ahhhhhhhh! Wei Xiao: Youre forgetting the feelings between old teammates now that you have a new one. You dont even care if I drop dead. Im going to sleep with Close tonight. Bai Cai: ??? The more Wei Xiao thought about it, the more reasonable it was, Goodbye. Youre useless. Im going to dive into Closes quilt! Bai Cai: For a moment, Bai Cai also didnt know who to feel distressed for. He just hoped that hed been overthinking it. His captain shouldnt have that kind of intention towards the little beast. Otherwise Shit, what kind of human suffering was this? If one liked a human person, they just needed to keep themselves sharp. If one liked a beast, then their future was really uncertain! On the other side, Yue Wenle suddenly sneezed several times in a row. Ning Zhehan worried, Brother Le, did you catch a cold? Yue Wenle shook his head, No, perhaps Im too excited. Ning Zhehan: Excited? Yue Wenle entered the single player training room and said darkly, Im going to solo with One Lamp in four hours. Today, January 21, 2021 will be the day when I, Yue Wenle, clear up my shame! It had been a year, and he now finally had a chance to prove himself! Ning Zhehan: Was, was it really clearing up his shame, or adding shame on top of shame? Granny grays heart was in the right place. He clenched his fist and encouraged him, You can do it! Wei Xiao pushed open the door to the first doubles training room. Lu Feng was already there. Wei Xiaos eyes curved as he sat down opposite him, Lets go! Lu Feng raised his gaze and looked at him, You ran? The youths cheeks were red, and his voice was a little short of breath. Wei Xiao blinked at him, How could I bear to make you wait for long? Lu Feng paused. Wei Xiao spoke while logging into the game, I thought about you for two years. Of course I wouldnt want to delay for a single minute or even a single second. Lu Feng: I never changed my cell phone number in the past two years. Back then, Wei Xiao had gotten his contact information. Wei Xiao thought about how hed left without saying goodbye and said shamelessly, How could I have the nerve to contact you? Lu Feng stared at the screen, Oh. Wei Xiao was still talking, Lets start And fight 300 glorious matches hadnt yet left his mouth when he heard Lu Feng say darkly, It seems like you didnt think about me enough. Wei Xiao: ! Wei Xiaoxiao, who could run his mouth all over the sky and forget about it as soon as it was said, ended up kicking an iron plate for once. And there was no change in expression as Lu Feng calmly and understatedly caused his processing to crash! Invited you. Lu Feng had already logged into the game and sent him an invitation to fight. Wei Xiao was immediately distracted, Okay! Two years! The solo that hed been thinking about for two years had come at last! Wei Xiao thought that he would never see Close again in this long and narrow canyon. But now F*ck, his heart was beating really fast! Could this be the legendary reunion after a brief parting is as sweet as a honeymoon? Lu Feng knew what hero Wei Xiao wanted to play the most with his eyes closed. What was rare was that he fulfilled his wishes and took the shadow thief. Solo could be played between two people with the same hero and talent, but there were very few people who would be stubborn enough to use the shadow thief when going up against Close. First of all, this talent spec wasnt the strongest when it came to solo games. Second, the shadow thief in Closes hands seemed possessed. One had to be incredibly hard-headed to use the shadow thief in a solo game against Close. Two years ago, Wei Xiao had a nickname, Hard-headed Wei. Hed taken the team cobbled together from the youth training camp and challenged all the major clubs. Who dared to compare with him when it came to sheer stubbornness?! When he saw Lu Fengs shadow thief, Wei Xiaos blood heated up, I hope you can do one thing. Lu Feng looked into the youths crystal bright eyes, Hm? Please make sure to Wei Xiaos mouth curved, Not take it easy on me! Lu Fengs cold eyes filled with a trace of barely noticeable laughter. He spoke softly, Okay. Indeed, he didnt take it easy on him at all. Two years later, Wei Xiao was able to experience even more excitement and stimulation that made his scalp go numb than he had before. Wei Xiao hadnt played professionally over the past two years, but he had always been soloing with professional players, and his growth was very obvious. He was definitely stronger and more stable than hed been two years ago, and yet Hed grown up, but so had Lu Feng! Two years ago, hed been the great demon king who was the ceiling of Glory, and now he was even stronger! Previously, Lu Feng hadnt played very seriously when he was on Yue Wenles account. Now that he was completely serious, his strength really exploded out! In just five minutes, Wei Xiao already felt a strong sense of oppression. Inside the long and narrow canyon, the shadow thief on the opposing side was like a black fog that covered everything. The overwhelming power that pressured him made Wei Xiaos fingertips quiver with excitement. Sure enough Close was the strongest. Sure enough Nobody else could compare to the number one in the world. Sure enough He liked Close the most! The match ended. Wei Xiao lost without a doubt. However, he was very happy. This was the kind of happiness that no other professional player could give him. Exciting! Wei Xiao breathed softly, then said, Again! He couldnt bear to waste even a single second of the four hours. Lu Feng said, Ill take the blade gunner. Wei Xiao understood instantly, Okay, Ill take the divine warrior! In the last training match between FTW and L&P, Yuan Ze had taken the blade gunner on the opposite side and Wei Xiao had played the divine warrior. In that match, Wei Xiao had been suppressed by Yuan Ze and had lost his head ten times. Now, Lu Feng was recreating that game in their solo match. In theory, the blade gunner definitely couldnt beat the divine warrior in a solo game. The divine warrior could be considered a god in a one on one fight. When coming up against the blade warrior who desperately needed to develop first, it should be able to deal with them like cutting melons and chopping vegetables. Of course. The strength of a hero depended more on the person who was using them. The blade gunner in Lu Fengs hands had the same essence as Yuan Zes. There were many variables in 5v5, but there were only two people facing off against each other in a solo match. Whether or not they could win against their opponent depended on their personal operations. Wei Xiao was completely engrossed in it, unconscious of the fact that theyd already soloed for three hours. Other than in the first match, Lu Feng used the blade gunner the whole time, and Wei Xiao used the divine warrior the whole time. The two of them repeated the same hero choices and faced each other again and again. Until the last match where Wei Xiao played out a set of moves First Blood! Wei Xiao took down the first kill. Hed taken the lead in killing Closes blade gunner! The corner of Lu Fengs mouth raised slightly, Good. Wei Xiao was even more excited, Next game, Ill be able to win against you in the next game! Lu Feng looked at the time. Its twelve. Wei Xiao: Ah? He looked up in a daze. On the huge electronic clock to the side, the numbers were displayed accuratelyCC12:00:00. Like Cinderella at the ball, Wei Xiao had to leave the ball before having danced enough! How could Wei Xiao be willing? He hurried to say, One match, just one more match. Lu Feng quit the room, Tired. Wei Xiao bounced up from his chair, How could you be tired! Without waiting for Lu Feng to say more, Wei Xiao had already walked around behind him, Is your neck tired? Your shoulders? Back? Ill massage it for you! After saying so, a cool hand landed on Lu Fengs neck. Lu Feng grabbed Wei Xiaos wrist. Wei Xiao froze. Lu Feng immediately let go, and turned his chair to look at him, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was a little surprised. Lu Fengs hand was very strong, and his wrist hurt slightly from the grip, Hm? Lu Feng looked into his eyes, Do you want to win? Wei Xiao didnt know why, but he didnt quite dare to look at him, Yes. Lu Feng: Do you only want to win against me? Wei Xiao was instantly left speechless. xiin: lol @ Wei Xiao willing to do anything for another game fortunately Lu Feng isnt a total beast~ Chapter 26.2: God Lu, your tone, how come it sounds so much like a proposal?! Lu Feng stood up. He was six or seven centimeters taller than Wei Xiao, and he was normally cold and aloof. When he lowered his eyes to look at people, there were very few people who could resist him. Wei Xiao might be bratty, but there were still people he listened to very naturally. For example, hed been very afraid of his grandma when he was a child. When his grandmother was angry, he wouldnt dare to make noise at all, and would just bow his head and admit that he was wrong. For example, when faced with Lu Feng, Wei Xiao was also a little intimidated. There was no other reason except that he felt guilty. Regardless of whether it was two years ago or two years later, Lu Feng had treated him particularly well. But he Wei Xiao wasnt afraid of being treated well by others because he would return it to them twofold, but it was only with Lu Feng that he couldnt do the same. What Lu Feng wanted was something he couldnt give. The youth, who was so spirited and unbridled at normal times, had become so downcast and dejected. Lu Fengs heart melted. You were very unsatisfied with the training match this afternoon, right? His voice lightened. Wei Xiao nodded. Lu Feng continued, Yuan Ze is very strong, right. Wei Xiao clenched his fist, Yes. Lu Feng: There are people who are even stronger than him, but none of them will take part in the singles. Out of FTWs god team from before, each of the five starting players were all strong enough to be heaven-defying. Close had been the youngest player in the team at the time and had been considered one of the weaker ones. But now, Close had won the singles championship three consecutive times. There were those who said that Close had won the championship because the other four had given up on the singles. If they signed up to participate, it would be unclear who would win or lose. It was also said that Close had grown rapidly and surpassed the other four people to become the real unmatched number one in the world. But these things were impossible to prove. Because if he wanted to go up against those four people, it could only be in the 5v5 arena where the teams were matched in strength. As for FTW as a whole, they have never been able to reach the global finals. Nobody knew if the Close whod stayed in FTW was stronger, or the four whod left FTW were stronger. Lu Feng asked Wei Xiao again, Do you only want to win against me? Wei Xiaos fist was clenched in a death grip, and he couldnt speak. Lu Feng continued, Or do you want to win against everyone. Each word and phrase were like heavy hammers that smashed onto Wei Xiaos heart. He and Close had only really known each other for a short time. Three days and three nights two years ago, and less than ten hours today. However Close understood him. He understood him better than anyone else. Wei Xiaos teeth were clenched tight and his voice trembled slightly, Im sorry, I promised someone that I would never Lu Feng spoke before he could finish, I went to your home. Wei Xiao raised his head up abruptly, his eyes wide open. Everything inside him felt uneasy. Lu Fengs heart clenched as he said gently, Your grandmother loved you very much. Since she loved you so much, she wouldnt stop you from doing anything. Wei Xiaos lips moved, and his eyes turned red. Grandma He couldnt bear to hear anything about his grandma. Lu Feng held his hand and led him out of the training room to head upstairs, She hoped that you wouldnt be like your father. She wasnt stopping you from doing things you like to do, but she hoped that you could see more, and she hoped that you wouldnt ignore your entire life for the sake of one thing. Wei Xiao was like a block of wood. For two years, two whole years, nobody had talked to him about this, and he would definitely never speak about this with anyone. Hed thought that he would be furious if he heard anything about his grandma. But now He wasnt angry. The hand holding his own was very hot and carried a thin layer of calluses that made him think of his childhood. His grandmas hand had been very rough, but it had also been very warm. Every time he came back from outside, she would hold his hand and rub it as she said, Little Xiao is so clever, helping grandma buy things at such a small age. Wei Xiao felt that that had been the most satisfying time of his life. No matter how tired hed been from running around, or how much pain he felt, no matter how much others laughed at him, as long as he came home, his grandma would hold his hand and smile at him, and he would feel that none of that mattered. So what if he didnt have a mom and dad. He had a grandma. His grandma loved him more than anyone else. Lu Feng gave Wei Xiao the things that Wei Xiaos mother had given him. When Wei Xiao opened up the box, he couldnt stop his tears from flowing. There was a painting inside the box. It was a portrait, a painting of a younger grandma and signed by Wei Quan. It had been painted by Wei Xiaos father when he was 17 years old. Grandma had kept it as a treasure for 30 years. Wei Xiao often saw it when he was a child. Back then, his grandma would always tell him proudly, Your father, hes really good at painting. Look at his painting of your grandma, doesnt it look very alike? Isnt it very beautiful? Wei Xiao never saw it again after he grew up. Hed thought that his grandma had been brokenhearted and thrown away the painting, but in fact, shed always kept it, putting it aside carefully like a treasure. Next to the painting was a thick notebook. Wei Xiao was very familiar with this notebook. In his first year of primary school, the teacher had asked the parents to put together a growth journal for their children. Grandma was already old and didnt understand these things, so shed run off to the school and asked the teacher. The teacher had replied perfunctorily, but the old lady had remembered it. It turned out that the point was to keep a diary for her grandson. From then on, Grandma Wei, who didnt know many words, slowly went through the dictionary and kept a journal for Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao had seen it before when he had graduated from primary school. Hed thought that his grandma no longer kept the diary after that, but now when he opened it up It was densely packed with cute handwriting that looked like it had been written by a primary school student. Grandma had always continued journaling; she had always been writing, jotting down the bits and pieces of Wei Xiaos life. February 9, 2018. Little Xiao went to play in a competition. It turned out that there are competitions for games. Little Xiao is really amazing, he wins every time. Little Xiao is really capable, hes not afraid of anything! February 13, 2018. Its almost New Years Eve. Little Xiao hasnt come back for a week. Sigh, its really like father, like son. Theyre the same when they encounter something they like. February 15, 2018. What a big lobster! He made money from playing in the competition, Little Xiao is really capable! February 18, 2018. That Old Yang next door has a bitter mouth. Whats wrong with e-sports? Our Little Xiao doesnt only know how to play games, he wants to become the champion! February 20, 2018. Little Xiao, grandma misses you, but thats okay. Children who grow up have to leave home. February 22, 2018. Little Xiao, grandma might not be able to accompany you for much longer. February 23, 2018. Dont be like your father. Grandma hopes that you will do what you like, but dont forget that there isnt only one thing to pursue in life. Look at the people around you, make more friends, find someone who loves you, and live simply and happily. February 24, 2018. Goodbye, Little Xiao. After flipping to the very end, Wei Xiao clutched the notebook tightly in his arms. Lu Feng, whod been standing beside him, pressed him into his chest. After his vision turned dark, Wei Xiao no longer had any scruples and sobbed desperately. Its my fault. Wei Xiao spoke in fits and starts, I didnt go home much during winter vacation. Lu Feng patted him lightly on the back. Wei Xiao didnt require him to answer; he just needed to speak all the words that were pressing down on his heart, My grandmas life was too bitter. She always left the good things to me and couldnt bear to eat well or dress well herself. She tried her best to help me with my studies, and I wanted to repay her, I wanted to give her all the money I earned. I wanted her to live a good life, but He was about to get the two million signing fee, but his grandma passed away. His grandma, whod been suffering from illness every day, who had refused to go to the hospital because she was reluctant to spend money on herself. His grandma, whod been killed by a disease that couldve been controlled with timely treatment. He hadnt known anything, and he hadnt even been by her side. Hed hurried home. And seen his grandma on her deathbed. His vaguely conscious grandma had just called out his name, then told him dont be like your father, dont be so miserable, Little Xiao, you have to be happy. Do the things that you like to do, but dont neglect the unlimited breadth of life due to an obsession. From beginning to end, the only thing his grandma had left behind for him was an infinite amount of love. Lu Feng kept him company the whole time. Wei Xiao cried from 12AM to 2AM. He talked continuously about his childhood, his grandmother, and constantly recalled old memories. Lu Feng answered in a low voice and was the best listener. All the burden that was backlogged in Wei Xiaos heart was all let out that night. At 3 oclock in the morning, Wei Xiao could only reminisce about the happy memories with his grandmother. He had cried and cried and started to laugh, then laughed and laughed and started to cry. The 19 year old youth had been strong for 19 years. For the first time, he acted like a child, crying and laughing without restraint. When the sun began to rise up in the sky, Wei Xiao was bathed in the light of the new sunrise. When he realized that hed been acting like a fool all night, Wei Xiao said awkwardly, Sorry your clothes F*ck, was he made of water? How could he cry so much? Hed cried so much that Lu Fengs clothing looked wretched! Lu Feng poked him on his forehead, Not crying anymore? Wei Xiao: He should just die from embarrassment and be done with it! Lu Feng laughed briefly and called out his name gently, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao felt uneasy all over, Yes? Lu Feng looked into his eyes, Do you want to come to FTW and become my teammate? Wei Xiao: It was impossible to refuse. But Wei Xiao tried hard to ease his embarrassment, God Lu, your tone, how come it sounds so much like a proposal?! Juurensha: Because it issssssss xiin: WX, your mouth its epic Chapter 27: Lu Feng:So, Im yours for 24 hours a day?” Lu Feng: Wei Xiao felt at ease again. Words that would make anyone else embarrassed enough to want to drill into the ground were really useful in easing awkwardness when it came to him. After half a beat of silence, Lu Feng spoke again, Then are you marrying or not? Wei Xiao: Ah? The iron plate was in front of him. Wei Xiaoxiao slammed into it head-first and ended up with a bump! Lu Feng laughed briefly, Im asking if you want to join FTW. He deliberately dragged out the word join. In the extensive and profound Chinese language, marry and join sounded vaguely similar. Wei Xiao could sense that Lu Feng was teasing him, and it aroused his desire for victory. It was fine to lose in solo matches, but when it came to shamelessness, he was invincible! Wei Xiao: Marry! Lu Fengs eyes were full of laughter, Hm? Wei Xiaos eyes were full of provocation as he said super loudly, I. Want. To. Marry. Into. FTW! At the stairway, the Old Yue whod matured from a little white face into a vampire, who had been wandering around for a full four hours, ??? In his hazy confusion, what kind of amazing news had he just heard? Marry? Marry! F*ck, hed originally been carrying a figurative bow and arrow, wanting to shoot right through this delicious spicy chicken. But now To hell with shooting! The godly marksman Yue Wenle slipped away in disgrace. He was afraid, he didnt dare. He was afraid that he might end up shooting out a Cupids arrow! After crying for most of the night, Wei Xiao was tired. He slept until two oclock in the afternoon. He woke up refreshed, and his entire person felt lighter. Grandmas portrait board was placed on the coffee table. He only needed to glance at it once, and the tip of his nose turned sour. But he wouldnt cry again. Wei Xiao walked over and touched the portrait. A gentle smile graced his mouth, Thank you, grandma. His grandmother had loved him with everything she had when she was still alive. His grandmother had gone to heaven, but she was still looking over him now. Over the past two years, what had pressed down on Wei Xiaos heart had been his self doubt and guilt that couldnt be released. Hed gone against his parents for so many years, not wanting to be a similarly selfish person, yet during the winter vacation when he was 17, hed done the same thing as Wei Quan. At the time of her death, his grandmas words for him not to be like his father had been like a blade stabbing into Wei Xiaos heart. Dont be the same as Wei Quan. Dont be like Wei Quan Wei Xiao had suddenly sobered up. Hed left his grandmother and spent all his time, day and night, chasing after an ethereal goal. What was the difference between Wei Quan and Wei Xiao? He wanted to earn money by playing professionally, and he wanted to use this to allow his grandma to live a good life. But deep down It was because he liked it. He liked the feeling of the competition, liked the excitement of competing, the blood-boiling tension, and the moments where one gave their all for the victory. He couldnt ignore the desire in his heart and had ignored his grandmother. What was the difference between him and Wei Quan!? He hated Wei Quan, but just like Wei Quan, hed made his grandmother miserable in the end. At that moment, Wei Xiao had been thoroughly defeated by his own guilt and self-reproach. Giving up his professional e-sports career had been Wei Xiaos punishment to himself. And last night Wei Xiao had read the diary his grandma had left for him, and the haze that had lingered in his heart for all this time finally dissipated. It turned out that his grandma didnt blame him. It turned out that his grandma had supported him all along. Supported him to do what he liked, supported him to live the life he wanted. Her only requirement was that she hoped that he could look at the scenery along the way, and not let it become an obsession that resulted in nothing but pain. Dont be like your father, allowing your dream to become an abyss. This was what Grandma Wei had really wanted to say to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao kissed the portrait and whispered, Dont worry. I will live very happily. He would live up to her expectations, live up to her life, and live up to the life shed given him. When Lu Feng came in, he saw Wei Xiao kissing the portrait. The warm afternoon sun fell on the youth and outlined him in gold. He had dark, short hair, a clean face, and his closed eyes covered up the wanton recklessness they held, leaving only a touch of childishness. 19 years old. It was an innocent and naive age, yet hed already experienced the parting of life and death. Lu Feng shifted his gaze and knocked at the door. Wei Xiao looked up at him. Seeing those bright and pure eyes that seemed to forever be full of vitality, Lu Fengs chest grew a little hot. This was a boy born in a quagmire of thorns, yet he simply couldnt wait to light up the entire world with his own light. CCReally beautiful. I took a shower. Wei Xiao plucked at his clothing, I didnt bring a change of clothing, so I just wore yours. He was a little shorter than Lu Feng, but this kind of t-shirt and pants were originally loose, so it wasnt a problem when he wore them. Lu Feng shifted his gaze away, Wear it, then. Wei Xiao had been in a confused haze last night, and there were many things he hadnt thought through. At this moment, he was completely awake and had a bunch of question marks in his mind. Captain! Although he hadnt yet signed the contract, hed been quick to change his mode of address, mainly because he was afraid that Lu Feng would go back on his word. Lu Feng froze slightly, Hm? The youth leaned over and looked at him with eager eyes, Do you really want to sign me? Lu Feng handed him the milk in order to prevent him from getting so close. Wei Xiao accepted the milk but didnt concern himself with drinking it. He stared unblinkingly at Lu Feng. Lu Feng looked down at the milk, What, regretting it? Wei Xiao: Me? Im afraid that youre regretting it! Lu Feng glanced at him, Why? Wei Xiao drank a sip of the sweet milk, but it couldnt stop the sourness in his words. Were short a top-laner in the team, right? Didnt you have your eyes set on one a long time ago? If I sign now, am I joining as a substitute? I dont mind being a substitute, but I think you should give me a chance to solo against him. How about whoever wins gets the top lane? Lu Feng: Seeing Lu Feng hesitating, Wei Xiao became even more sour, I dont care. You invited me last night, and I agreed. Even if theres no black and white written words, you cant go back on it! Lu Feng chuckled. Wei Xiao was strangely nervous. It hadnt been easy for him to untie the knot in his heart and play professionally, and he only wanted to join FTW. He didnt want to go to any other team! But, what would he do on the off-chance that Lu Feng didnt want him?! Not only was this guy the captain, he was also the head of the club. Every single word of his carried weight, right?! Lu Feng set aside the smile on his face and looked at him carefully, Hes excellent. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng continued, He has a strong personal ability. This sounded familiar to Wei Xiaos ears. It seemed that Lu Feng had said this when they were in the car. Lu Feng: Hes young and inexperienced, but his future is promising. Wei Xiao was about to die from sourness. F*ck, could it be that Close really didnt want him?! Lu Feng continued, I value him very much, because hes worth it. Wei Xiao: Its over. He was done for! His career was over before it even started! Lu Feng: Hes worth inviting twice, worth waiting two years for, worth me trying my best to coax him into the base. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng looked at him and asked softly, Do you know his name? Wei Xiao acted like a block of wood for two seconds before pointing at himself. Lu Feng: Mm. It was a single syllable, the one that the fans called a cold and indifferent monosyllable, yet it made Wei Xiaos heart explode with joy when he heard it! Wei Xiao: So you mean that the one you had your eye on was me? The one you want is me? You said that Im excellent and have a strong personal ability. Although Im young and experienced, I have a promising future? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao was going crazy from joy. He continued to press, Is it is it is it is it? Lu Feng smiled briefly, Yes. Wei Xiaos memory was much sharper than others at this moment. He followed up, You think that Ill be stronger than you in the future? Lu Feng went with it, Yes. Wei Xiaos heart exploded with delight, To be honest Lu Feng vaguely felt that his next sentence wouldnt be anything good. Sure enough, Wei Xiaos mouth was incurable, My current mood, Im even happier than if I got a love confession from my crush! Lu Feng couldnt help it and flicked his forehead, Enough. Wei Xiao was gushing, I feel that I still need to work hard in order to surpass you. Why dont we Lu Feng: Go downstairs. Eat. After saying so, he turned and went out. Wei Xiao followed him, Then after eating Lu Feng walked ahead, After eating, well arrange the contract. Wei Xiao: All it takes is a signature. It wont take long. Lu Feng stopped to look at him, You dont want to know how much your signing fee is? Wei Xiaoxiao was focused on his plan, How about this, if you solo with me for 12 hours a day, I wont take any signing fee! Lu Feng had smiled more since seeing this brat than he had in the previous 21 years, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao stared unblinkingly at him, Hm? Lu Feng: Youre coming to FTW in order to be my teammate. Wei Xiao: Yeah. Lu Feng: Teammates fight side by side; they dont solo day and night. Wei Xiao continued to strive for his goal, Then we can fight together for 12 hours, then solo for 12 hours? Lu Feng: So, Im yours for 24 hours a day? Wei Xiao was stunned and actually became a little embarrassed, You see, arent I also giving you all 24 hours of my day? It was mutual! Lu Feng was silent for three seconds before coldly refusing him, No. Wei Xiao: Then, lets discuss. How about two hours of free time a day? You can solo with me if you want to. The great demon king was worthy of his name and specialized in dealing with the little lunatic, Three hours for every regular season game we win. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng continued, If you win a playoff game, itll be 10 hours; winning the China championship, 100 hours. Wei Xiaoxiao was really engrossed in it, Then what about the world championship! Lu Feng glanced at him, However long you want. Wei Xiao: !!! Lu Feng: The time is up to you. Ill accompany you at any time. Wei Xiao: F*ck! In that case, what was he waiting for? He had to hurry up and train! The other three starters of the FTW team, whod just woken up from their slumber, still didnt know what they were about to experience Oh, it wasnt just the starters at FTW. Not even the China competition zone or Glorys 16 competition zones realized that today was such an extraordinary day. An inflammable and explosive hazardous object had been ignited by the great demon king himself on this day! Although Wei Xiao didnt care how much the signing fee was, Lu Feng definitely wouldnt treat him badly. It was actually reasonable to say that Wei Xiao, whod left the circle for two years, had no real value. However, compared with Yue Wenles signing fee, Lu Feng privately added another 10% for him and drew up the contract. Even Wei Xiao, who didnt care about how much it was, was shocked when he saw it. Lu Feng: This is the basic signing fee. Prize money won during the competitions is distributed to the players proportionally. The prize money in Glory events was surprisingly high. For example, the global finals were worth US $30 million, which was enough to make countless people go crazy. Wei Xiao didnt care much about these things. What he cared about was, I think that the contract has to be written in more detail. Lu Feng: How so? Hed prepared the contract himself and hadnt missed out any details. Wei Xiao spoke seriously, For example, youll accompany me for however long I want if we win the global finals. Shouldnt that also be written into the contract? Inside the conference room, the FTW Club staff responsible for the contract signing broke the tip of his pen! Juurensha: I do hope at some point they get some sleep. xiin: yeah, the 2 hours of free time out of their 48 hour day Chapter 28.1: I want to beat out a bloody path amongst the thousands of Close CPs! Wei Xiao was very clear about who was in charge. He looked at Lu Feng with eager eyes. Lu Feng: The staff members were afraid to lift their head. They only wished that he could stare holes into this contract! What the hell was this? These two The world of young people was too terrifying! Lu Feng actually didnt explain it. He only said to Wei Xiao, This is a private agreement between us. It doesnt have to be written into the contract. The staff members: F*ck! Wei Xiao thought about it and realized it made sense. He then reminded Lu Feng, You have to keep your word. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao then told the staff who were sitting there, Please help me act as a witness! The staff members: Witness what? Who wants to act as a witness for your accompany you for however long you want? After dealing with the big stone in his heart, Wei Xiao boldly signed his name on the signature page and printed his name. So, after a two year detour, Wei Xiao finally joined FTW! Wei Xiao was still attending college. Hed been admitted to the famous Normal University in China. Although it wasnt as impressive as a certain someone whod dropped out of Nanjing University, he was still a serious and talented student. Lu Feng: The matter of suspending school isnt urgent. Well do it after the new year. Wei Xiao had been lively on the outside while living in seclusion on the inside for the past two years. He didnt have friends at school and didnt feel much regret, Kay. The two of them left the meeting room. Lu Feng asked, Do you have any thoughts about your game ID? An ID had to be registered when one became a professional player. Glory had international events, and the competition committee had unified regulations. All player IDs were to be in English, making it convenient for communication between countries. Wei Xiaos former international server ID was Professor, which carried the meaning of teacher in Chinese. On one hand, hed been determined to become a teacher at a normal university and hed used it to remind himself not to be completely immersed in the professional gaming arena. On the other hand, Professor sounded like Call Beast in Chinese, and had more oomph than teacher. In short, this ID didnt mean grandmaster at all. After all, the grandmaster nickname was something created by the little cubs hed bullied into crying, and it didnt have anything to do with Wei Xiao. It was even to the point where Wei Xiao hadnt even read Jin Zhongs works and didnt know what the name One Lamp Grandmaster meant. It was Bai Cai whod had to send him the Baidu Encyclopedia link. Only then did Wei Xiao understand that the One Lamp Grandmaster was so deeply hidden. However, he also secretly felt that it matched his identity, so he happily acknowledged it. Now Wei Xiao had an idea in mind, Quiet! He might say that he didnt plan to play professionally, but in fact, hed been thinking of this ID for two years. Lu Feng: Quiet? Wei Xiao: Yes! Quiet was indeed good, but it really didnt suit Wei Xiao. A trash talk king being called Quiet; it was full of irony and provocation no matter how one looked at it. Wei Xiao explained to Lu Feng, Your ID is Close, and mine is Quiet; one is seclusion, and the other is quiet. The implication is that the other side will be beat up until theyre unable to speak and directly go into seclusion! Lu Feng: Wei Xiao continued excitedly, I thought of it about two years ago. I originally wanted to use Open as it would match with your name, but then, Open seemed a little too open. I went through the English dictionary for most of the night and then found that the word Quiet is pretty good! Lu Feng hesitated slightly, Theyre both good. Wei Xiao: Hm? Lu Feng said softly, Any name of yours is good. Wei Xiao was delighted, Then, well use Quiet? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao felt deeply that his brain was really amazing. In the future, he and Lu Feng would become the Seclusion CP. Oh, that wasnt very good. What if they were cursed to be autistic? The CP name wasnt urgent, he could go and ask the expert Old Bai later and ask him for help When he thought of Bai Cai, Wei Xiao was still planning to settle accounts with him later! Wheres Old Bai? I didnt see him after dinner just now. Lu Feng: He should be in the training room at this hour. Wei Xiao: I have something to discuss with him! That son of a bitch must have known that FTWs new top-laner was him, but he actually continued hiding it and tried to whet his appetite! Wei Xiao left in a blaze. Lu Feng stopped where he was and stared at his back for a while. Wei Xiaos words still echoed in his earsCCI went through the English dictionary for most of the night and then found that the word Quiet is pretty good. The image of a 17 year old youth who hadnt gone to sleep at night, wasnt playing games, and was flipping through the English dictionary instead popped into Lu Fengs mind. Two years ago, FTW had wanted Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao had also been eager to join FTW. It was a pity that the affairs of the world were inconstant, and theyd missed that opportunity. At the time, Lu Feng had barely been able to deal with his own affairs and had no time at all to go look for Wei Xiao after he left. If hed gone to Wei Xiaos home to check out the situation back then, would things have turned out differently? Lu Fengs eyes drooped down, and he suppressed these churning thoughts. There was no need to feel regret over the past. What he should do was cherish the present and make sure the future would hold no regrets. Two years ago, he hadnt had the power to keep Wei Xiao. Now, two years later, hed already set up the stage for him to fly. Bai Cai was hiding from Wei Xiao. He could figure out that the captain must have locked in Beast Wei even if he thought with his toes. Thinking of how hed spoken those words to stimulate Wei Xiao in order to cooperate with the captain, Bai Cai could feel that he was done for, thoroughly, completely done for! In order to reduce a certain persons anger, Bai Cai picked up the leash and went downstairs to take Soybean out for a walk. He just so happened to be blocked at the door by Wei Xiao. Bai Cai: ! As soon as Wei Xiao saw his doggy son, he immediately started, Dont think that Ill let you off just because youre using Soybean as a doggy shield! Bai Cai managed to keep silent for half a second before exploding, F*ck your daddy. Im kind enough to walk your dog, yet youre here f*cking insulting me! Wei Xiao: Would a damned nerd like you take the initiative to walk a dog? You just have an uneasy conscience! Bai Cai: Laozis good intentions are being treated as malicious! Wei Xiao: Your good intentions? Youre a damned black hearted ghost. Old Bai. Is it that you have a lot of friends and wont miss not having me around? Mustve felt pretty good to hide things from me! Bai Cais liver ached, You were a fool on your own, and you were blindly eating vinegar and being petty and jealous. Laozi can laugh at you for a lifetime over that. Wei Xiao: F*ck, Bai Cai, youre finished! Ning Zhehan, whod heard the commotion and come out of the training room, was left with his mouth open in shock. Yue Wenle chomped on potato chips and said, Its been a year since I joined the team, but its the first time Ive seen Brother Cai so energetic. Ning Zhehan had joined the team later, but as a member of the circle, he knew a lot about the various professional players. For example, FTWs support Bai Cai was famous as a Buddhist youth. He was always gentle and elegant and smiling no matter what. It was like he wished he could write the words anythings fine, okay, it doesnt matter on his face. But now Brother Cai didnt look anything like a Buddhist. He was obviously a Taoist child, and the words he traded with Wei Xiao didnt seem thoughtful at all! Yue Wenle couldnt help but be reminded of a certain commentators wordsCCGod Bai was missing a soul. Now, it looked like their God Bais soul had returned. The two of them mutually sniped at each other for a long time, then Soybean finally broke free of the hold on his leash and ran off. Wei Xiao & Bai Cai: F*ck! They ran after the dog together. After ending up with a whole body drenched in sweat, Bai Cai somehow managed to grab a hold of Soybean in the garden. Wei Xiao took in his weak chicken-like appearance and was too lazy to continue their verbal battle Bai Cais personality in the fan circle was gentle and good-natured. As the Glory circles head shou, hed deeply hidden his merit and fame as the Gossip Emperor, and his act was perfect. Of course, this had something to do with the way he himself was particularly fond of staying at home and really didnt like to exercise. Wasnt it a good thing pretending to be weak? Why should he tire himself out? This was Brother Cais life wisdom. Wei Xiao took over Soybeans leash and gave Bai Cai a chance to catch his breath. Bai Cai gasped for breath, then glanced at him, Did you finally think things through clearly? Wei Xiao: Mm. It had been two years, but Bai Cai had never asked, What exactly The two of them had collaborated for so long and couldnt be more clear about each others bad habits, but they had never talked about what happened two years ago. Wei Xiao sighed and told him everything about what happened last night in detail. Once it was out, the things that hed once been unable to face and unable to touch, became much less daunting. His parents, his grandma His own regret, guilt, self-blame, and loss. It could all be spoken out loud. Grandma hoped that he would be happy, and the Wei Xiao whod given up the competition arena had no longer had any connection to happiness. So, he was back! Bai Cai was shocked and taken aback as he listened. Hed vaguely known that Wei Xiao and his parents were at odds, but he hadnt expected it to be like this. Wei Xiao shared these things because he felt that Bai Cai should know. If there hadnt been Bai Cai in these past two years, he didnt know how he wouldve ended up. Bai Cai was greedy for money, but as a starting player for the FTW team, how could he care about the small commission earned from the accompanying player business? Hed done it just for Wei Xiao. He couldnt let go of this stupid, foolish captain whod taken him to fight from north to south during their time in the training camp. Anyway, were in the same team again! Wei Xiao thumped his fist against Bai Cais chest, very lightly. Bai Cai felt that his heart was burning. He was unable to put on airs like Wei Xiao and said, What the hell does that have to do with me! Wei Xiao laughed, Oh, right. Im not a jungler or a marksman now. Theres no way to take you flying. Bai Cai sneered, Bullshit, even if you were a jungler, so what? Can you be as strong as Close? Even Close cant fly. Wei Xiao: Close cant carry on his own, but its definitely possible once you add Quiet. Oh, my new ID is Quiet. Isnt it great? By the way, youd better hurry up and stay up late in order to help me think up a CP name and build up hype for it on your alt account! Bai Cai froze for half a second, What CP name? Wei Xiao was very calm and frank, Me and Close! It has to be powerful, more majestic than the Double Feng CP, and more interesting than your Marinated Vegetables (Lu x Cai) CP. I want to beat out a bloody path amongst the thousands of Close CPs! Bai Cai: F*ck! Had the contract been signed? Captain, please reconsider this. Are we really going to let this shameless old beast into the team?! Chapter 28.2: Lu Feng: FTW advocates free love After walking the dog back, the Yue Wenle whod chomped down two bags of chips stared at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao gave a cautious greeting, God Le. Yue Wenle: I waited for you all night last night. Wei Xiao laughed dryly, Waited, for me? For what? Yue Wenle bit down on the chips and made a crunchy sound, Waited so you and I could solo! Hed waited from 1AM to 6AM. There was nobody who could understand the journey Yue Wenles heart had undertaken during that time! Wei Xiao: ??? Wei Xiao heaved a sigh of relief, Oh, solo. You shouldve said that earlier. I thought You wanted to climb into my bed! Bai Cai rolled his eyes. Wei Xiao cleared his throat and hooked an arm around Yue Wenles shoulder like a pair of good brothers, You shouldve said it earlier; well be on the same team in the future. You can come look for me whenever you want to solo. I can solo with you until you faint. Yue Wenle: He could pass on the fainting. As soon as Wei Xiao thought about how Yue Wenle had been trained by Close for a year, his hands became incredibly itchy, Why dont we go have a game now? Yue Wenle was instantly injected with chicken blood, Lets go A cold voice sounded out from behind them, Hes not free. Yue Wenles back felt cold, and he turned around to see his own captain standing there. Wei Xiao was regretful, God Le, go do what you need to do. Lu Feng came over and stared at Wei Xiao, Youre not free. Wei Xiao blinked, What, what is there for me to do? How come he didnt even know? Lu Feng looked down at Soybean, Do you want to look at your new living quarters? Soybean was incredibly fascinated with Close. It was a very big dog, yet it very much wanted to be hugged, Arooo! What he said didnt matter, it was enough for him to be attractive! Wei Xiao recovered his wits, Oh, right, I still have to move! Lu Feng: What else is important in your apartment? Wei Xiao thought about it, Computer, keyboard, mouse? Lu Feng: Theyve all been prepared for you. Wei Xiao was very excited, but he held back and continued to think, In that case, I should still go get some clothing? He gestured at what he was currently wearing, I cant wear yours every day. Yue Wenle thought about the words hed overheard that morning and stumbled, Since youre busy, Ill go and rank first. Wei Xiao let him go, Okay, we have a lot of time ahead of us. Yue Wenle: He kept experiencing the cold feeling of being stared at by the other sides jungler king. Illusion, it must be an illusion! Wei Xiaos dormitory was next to Bai Cais. Bai Cai also followed them up, thinking that if anything was missing, he could get it from his own place and bring it over for Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao pushed the door open and Soybean rushed in first. Its got everything! Wei Xiao was surprised. Bai Cai: Hed been thinking too much. How could the Captain allow this dormitory to be missing anything? It was labelled a dormitory, but in fact, it was a simple small apartment. The dormitories of the FTW team members were all like this. There was a bedroom, a small living room, and a private washroom. The decorations were thoughtful and comfortable. Wei Xiaos dormitory was a little different from Bai Cais and the rest. His small flat had an additional dog living area. Not only was there a dog kennel, various toys and even dog food had already been prepared. Wei Xiao looked around and tsked, Captain, youve been planning this for a long time! This wasnt something that could be prepared in one night. Close must have had someone prepare the room in advance, waiting for him to come. Lu Feng was noncommittal, Mm. Wei Xiao was amused, You prepared so thoroughly. What would you do if I didnt come? Lu Feng glanced at him, Arent you here? Wei Xiao laughed even more cheerfully, Sigh, Im really not very promising. You really caught me. Bai Cai: Youre really damned self-aware. Also, could he leave now? He felt very redundant! There was a smile in Lu Fengs eyes, Go and see if anythings missing. Wei Xiao entered the room and looked around. He was more and more satisfied, Nothings missing. My rent over there is just about to be due again. Its really like He was about to say, everything is going smoothly, and they only needed to wait for the start of the competition, but he suddenly remembered another thingCC His boss! His accompanying player business still had a boss he had to provide services for. The key characteristic of professional e-sports was that they were always busy. There was no stopping even during the off-season, and once the matches started, they could only wish that there were 48 hours a day, and all 48 of those hours could be spent training. How would Wei Xiao find time to play games with his boss?! Wei Xiao wasnt greedy for that two million yuan. He could return the money and terminate the contract. It would be nothing more than a loss of 200,000 yuan to the accompanying player platform. Although it would hurt, there was no other way. Life required one to make choices. However the rather problematic thing was that the platform settled accounts on a monthly basis. The two million yuan the boss had paid him was still being held by the platform, and Wei Xiao hadnt taken it out. If he wanted to terminate the contract, he would have to return the two million directly to the boss, and he didnt have enough cash on hand. The three million in his savings that hed boasted to Bai Cai about before had included the two million from the platform. Wei Xiao asked Lu Feng, Theres one thing. Can I withdraw my salary in advance? He was a free player, and this signing fee was equivalent to an annual salary. Logically speaking, it would be paid monthly and not given to him all at once. Lu Feng: Yes. How much do you need? Two million Wei Xiao thought of his own savings, and hurriedly added, One million is fine too! This amount wasnt a small sum. Lu Feng asked, Whats the problem? Bai Cai whod been listening from the side suddenly understood. Damn it, hadnt the captain revealed his other identity yet? He wanted to leave, he really wanted to slip away! Wei Xiao paused for a moment and thought of his original lies. He was full of regret. Why did he have to pretend to be cool, why had he faked having a life, why had he wanted to maintain his dignity? Now One lie had to be rounded out with 10 more! Fortunately, his brain was nimble enough. Just didnt I say before, that I have a girlfriend. Lu Feng was a little stunned. Wei Xiao did indeed have a girlfriend. He had two of them, and they were both him. Wei Xiao sighed, Im now going to play professionally. There are no relationships in e-sports, and I dont want to drag her down, so I intend to break up with her. Lu Feng understood. Bai Cai also understood. Wei Xiao continued, I cant break up just like that, so I thought that for better or worse, I could compensate her with money. Lu Feng: Bai Cai: He was going to die when Wei Xiao learned the truth. Wei Xiao cleared his throat, Two million should be fine, right? In fact, we havent been together for long He was even able to pull all this together. Wei Xiao was impressed. He was very much impressed by his own skill! Lu Feng paused, then said, Theres no need to break up. If Bai Cai hadnt been holding onto the door, he wouldve fallen over! Wei Xiao was stunned, Ah? Lu Feng: FTW advocates free love, as long as it doesnt affect training. Wei Xiao was a little flustered, Nonono, Im dedicated to the championship. Theres no room left for love. Lu Feng: Its fine. Ill have finance transfer you two million. Theres no need for a break up fee, but it can be considered an appeasement fee. Of course, as to the specifics, you can arrange it yourself. Wei Xiao breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard this. Great, great. It was good that he could obtain the salary advance. He had to hurry up and wrap up this matter, and never use a girlfriend to act cool again. It was too hard! Lu Feng continued, Then, take a look at whats missing, and Ill make arrangements. Wei Xiao: Okay! He would go and contact the boss when the money came in. At this time, this moment, Bai Cai really didnt dare to face Wei Xiao and also slipped out. Bai Cai: Captain Lu Feng: There hasnt been time to explain. Hed originally used the ID LU to get Wei Xiao as an accompanying player so that he could get closer to Wei Xiao and understand why hed left the professional arena. Now that hed come back, there was no need to hide. It was just that he hadnt had a chance to say it before Wei Xiao came up with this new move. Bai Cais brain hurt, Dont say it for now. Im begging you not to explain it! Bai Cai gave him an analysis, If you tell him, hell stab me to death with a knife. Thats a small problem. The big problem is that hell pester you to solo for 10 days and 10 nights! Lu Feng: This was a possibility. Lu Feng also started to have a headache, Take it slowly. It was indeed very inconvenient to explain. If it was all explained clearly, he was afraid that Wei Xiao would be embarrassed enough to run away again. It hadnt been easy to coax him back. Hed first let things settle. That night, FTWs official blog issued an announcementCCFTW welcomed Quiet to the team. As soon as this Weibo post went out, the Glory circle exploded in minutes. There were hundreds of comments per second in the discussion area, and they were all asking who Quiet was. Soon, someone shared some general knowledge, The grandmaster, it must be the grandmaster! After that, the Close who hadnt gone onto Weibo for a long time forwarded this message. The accompanying text was simple, one wordCCWelcome. This was enough, it was enough for the fans to all spiral up to the heavens! Wei Xiaos Weibo account had already been set up. He forwarded Closes message, and his content was also very simple, Hello everyone, Im FTW.Quiet. In the comments, Bai Cai, Yue Wenle, and Ning Zhehan all left messages one after another. A large number of FTW fans, anti-fans, and the Glory circles professional haters all rushed over at the speed of light. Quiets Weibo fan count rose up like a rocket, and the number of comments and forwards was enough to send him up to the hot search list at any minute. What made the Glory circle explode on the spot wasCC In the China competition zone, numerous professional players had also come to leave messages. The messages they left were neat and orderly. RR.Moonlit: ^_^ TPT.Eurostar: ^_^ 3U:Asleep: ^_^ Beneath this batch of heaven shaking IDs were the fans explosion. My god, I seem to have seen a knife hidden in the smile! How is it a hidden knife? Its clearly an explosive! This powerful resentment The grandmaster has no way to run. This Quiet is the One Lamp Grandmaster that abused his way through our China Glory circle! The real trash talk came at the end. Wei Xiao posted another Weibo message, My live broadcast studio ID: 7758521, premiering the day after tomorrow. Not playing ranked games, itll be solo the whole way. Everyone is welcome to come take their revenge. Nobody who comes will be refused. After that, he even @ all the professional players whod left messages on his previous post. Juurensha: Just digging holes all the way down.. xiin: ^_^ Chapter 29.1: He doesnt want to break up with you? After dropping such a huge bomb, Wei Xiao closed the page for his Weibo and went to double queue with Bai Cai. The comments on Weibo seemed to roil up like boiling water, the entire pot exploding. Thats so awesome! How arrogant, he directly tossed down the gauntlet! Go go go! Moon God, go and get him! Shoot shoot shoot! Euro God, go and shoot him dead! Stab stab stab! Sleep God, go and stab him through! Why is this batch of fans so improper? Theyre all making it perverted at the slightest provocation! There were also rational fans who analyzed, Its unclear what level this new top-laner of FTW is at, but he does know how to build up hype for himself. But thatll depend on whether or not he has any support. I bet 10 yuan that not a single person will go to his studio the day after tomorrow! Only fools would go. Theyre all worth tens of millions, why would they go and play around with a newcomer? But hes yelling like this. If the people he @s dont agree to fight, wont it seem like theyre scared? The anti-fans immediately picked up the conversation, Isnt the Chinese Glory circle known outside as the coward circle? Being scared is normal. Its all a group of fools who get smeared into the ground by foreigners! FTWs new top-laner isnt anything to be excited about. If he has the ability to be a terror at home, then he should go outside and mess with the foreign players! If he had that level of ability, would he need to intimidate the Glory circle? He wouldve gone off to join the foreign powers a long time ago. Wei Xiao didnt read the comments, but FTWs PR team was paying close attention. Xiang Liu looked at the skyrocketing Weibo fan count and forwards and sighed emotionally, If nothing else, Quiets commercial value is absolutely amazing. He hadnt even made his official debut, yet his popularity had already reached the skies. The live broadcasting platform had already sent over a representative to discuss the promotion for the first broadcast the day after tomorrow Which rookies live broadcast had ever obtained this kind of treatment? It was really unprecedented! However, Xiang Liu felt that this was only a small start. The bigger surprises were yet to come. After signing Wei Xiao, Xiang Liu had already stocked up on quick-acting heart-saving pills. Not only for himself, but also for the FTW management team Wei Xiao and Bai Cai had just finished two matches, and Bai Cai disdained him, Go away, dont queue with me anymore! Wei Xiao felt aggrieved, Old Bai, youve changed. You werent like this before! Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Youre a damned top-laner. How can you come and escort laozi like this? Laozi is a support and cant follow a top-laner like you! Wei Xiao sighed, The top lane is bitter, its cold, its as lonely as the winter snow, ah. Bai Cai: Im going to go find Old Yue. Play by yourself! Wei Xiao waved his hand, I wont send you off, you unfaithful man. Bai Cias mouth twitched. He thought to himself: Sooner or later, your mouth will get you into deadly trouble! Wei Xiao was just about to solo queue when he saw that LU was online. Wei Xiao, whod just received two million, hurriedly poked LU: Boss? LU: Here. Wei Xiao didnt waste time on nonsense either. He explained his intentions and sent over a bunch of sorry emoticons while he was at it. Although he was offering to refund the money in full, at the end of the day, hed still broken their agreement. If the boss could spend two million yuan for an accompanying player, then they definitely werent short on money. Giving someone who wasnt short on money more money couldnt really be considered compensation. LU paused for a moment and typed, Congratulations. This one word warmed Wei Xiaos heart, Boss, youre such a nice person! He was about to break their agreement, yet the boss was actually concerned about his career. This person was really a rich, good person! Wei Xiao quickly followed up, Give me an account number, and Ill return the money to you. LU: No need. Wei Xiao: ??? LU: Keep playing games with me. Wei Xiao was stunned, then explained patiently, Professional players have to train almost every day. Im afraid LU: Not even half an hour a day? Wei Xiao: LU: Three or four games a week is also fine. Wei Xiaos fingers landed on his cell phone, but he couldnt seem to type. He looked at Bai Cai nearby, Old Bai! Bai Cai looked over quite seriously, Ah? Wei Xiao was incredibly moved, My boss is too nice. Hes really too nice. Look at what he said. If I were a girl, Id definitely marry him and take him home! Bai Cais hand trembled, and he ended up sending his own jungler out to die in a first blood kill. Wei Xiao had already started reading it out loud, Look at what he said Not even half an hour a day? Or every week Bai Cai knew some truths that he shouldnt be aware of at his age. It was too hard being him! Wei Xiao: What should I do? I cant bear to refuse him. Bai Cai had just died in the game, so he simply turned around to look at him, I dont get you. Wei Xiao: Hm? Bai Cai asked the question that had been lurking in his heart, Your boss already said that he was a man. Why did you have to tell the captain about a girlfriend? F*ck, dont be so heartless, you little fool! Wei Xiao replied honestly, Isnt it just that I wanted to maintain my dignity until death and now, I have to suffer terribly for my wrongs? Bai Cai just knew that this fellow had a crappy character! Wei Xiao was on the alert, Dont tell the captain, hey. Laozi cant win against him in solo games. Cant I just find something else to win against him with? Bai Cai sneered, You want to win against him in terms of love life? Wei Xiao cleared his throat, Its well known in the circle that Close has been single for 21 years, yet I have a beautiful and sensible, oh, and rich, girlfriend at 19. Isnt it cool? Cool, itll be cool when you cry! Bai Cai ignored him. Im ranking. Stop disturbing me! Wei Xiao just wanted to show off his boss and didnt actually want him to give any suggestions. Wei Xiao typed to LU: Thats not fair to you. LU: No, Im also very busy and dont have much time to play games. Wei Xiao increasingly felt that the boss was a nice person, How about this, Ill refund you the money, and Ill take you to go up in the rankings whenever I have time! They could just be friends. Money wasnt important. LU: Thats too much work for you. Wei Xiao: Thats okay, isnt it just taking friends to rank up? LU: Friends? Wei Xiao: Yes, lets be friends! LU: Okay. Wei Xiao was happy, Then, give me your account number, and Ill transfer you the money. LU: Didnt you say were friends? Wei Xiao: Yeah. LU: If were friends, then dont talk about money. Wei Xiao: ??? LU: Talking about money hurts feelings. Wei Xiao: ?????? His bosss logic Was possessed by a ghost! LU: Lets leave it at that. I have work to do, Im going off. Wei Xiao: Hey Unfortunately, the profile image of the other party had already turned dark. Hed really never expected that he, Wei Xiaoxiao, who could get others to do what he wanted on a daily basis, had actually ended up falling for someone elses trickery today. The key point was that this trick It seemed to have been stuffed full of marshmallows? Wei Xiao had no moves left to use and went upstairs to find Lu Feng. Lu Feng was just heading downstairs, and the two met head-on. Wei Xiaos tone was thoughtful, Captain Lu Feng: Yes? Wei Xiao: Its like this my girlfriend doesnt want the money. F*ck, hed just said that he wouldnt use this girlfriend to act cool, yet here he was, with an even fiercer act! Lu Fengs lips curved almost imperceptibly. He doesnt want to break up with you? Wei Xiao acted abashed, Yes! She said that it was fine even if I can only play three or four games with her a week. Lu Feng: Youve got quite some charm. Wei Xiao: Sigh, its because I was born handsome Lu Feng laughed, Alright, dont break up if you cant bear to. The club doesnt prohibit its members from dating. Wei Xiao was torn, But I dont think its fair to her. Lu Feng: If theyre happy, then it doesnt matter. Wei Xiao paused for a moment. Lu Feng continued, Besides, its off-season. You can spend more time accompanying them. Wei Xiao thought about it. That made sense! Lu Feng continued, Even if the season starts, youll have enough free time. Just arrange things well. With that said, Wei Xiaos thoughts suddenly cleared up. He was the one who had overthought it. The boss was also a busy person. He felt that he was wronging the boss by only playing three or four games with him a week, but if he thought about it carefully, theyd known each other for a while now, and it seemed that they hadnt played that many games in total However, according to this progress, if they wanted to finish playing ten thousand games Well if all else failed, he could accompany him to play until he didnt want to play, or couldnt play anymore. If there was still money left by then, he would just give it back! In short, he would never let the boss suffer a loss. Wei Xiao was no longer caught up on it. He was very grateful to Lu Feng, Captain, youre really my spiritual mentor! The knot in his heart from two years ago was undone by Lu Feng. Now, even the bosss business was solved with the captains help. He was really worthy of being number one in the world. Powerful! Lu Feng tried to press down the corner of his lips that wanted to curve up, Anything else? Wei Xiao was a typical genius who knew when to continue climbing up the pole, To be honest, theres a little stain on my mind that needs your spiritual mentorship to help wash clean. Lu Feng: Fearing that Lu Feng would run away, Wei Xiao spoke quickly, Its just a small stain, a very small one. Captain, if you solo with me for two games, no, three games, itll be as clear as it was at the start. Lu Feng: Did you win a regular season match? Wei Xiao: Lu Feng: Did you win the playoffs? Wei Xiao: Lu Feng flicked his forehead, Go 5v5. Wei Xiao was unwilling and followed behind him, saying, Captain, I have a problem! Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: Really! I have a big problem and only you can save me. Lu Fengs mood was like he was listening to a single person cross talk, How so? xiin: Captain! I have a problem! Why is Wei Xiaoxiao so hilarious?!?! Chapter 29.2: Bloody History~ Wei Xiao hurriedly explained how hed made a post full of trash talk on Weibo and put on a pitiful act, Theyll definitely charge in like crazy and take turns to f*ck with me. Im going to end up abused into tears! Lu Feng had seen his Weibo post a long time ago and narrowed his eyes at him, You can be abused into tears? He hadnt even made him cry yet. How could anyone else do so? Wei Xiaoxiao redoubled his efforts, Thats very possible. Captain, think about it. When I abused them before, they were all cubs from a reserve team or even the youth training camp. Now, theyre all starters in their teams, star players who have had a lot of experience in competitions. Who knows how many times their level has gone up! As for me, Wei Xiao was about to get some eye drops to fake tears, Ive left for two years, and had to rely on abusing noobs for a living every day. Ive made no progress! Those abused noobs would really want to kill him if they heard this. Lu Feng really wavered for a moment. Wei Xiao continued to pour oil to the fire, Captain, not only is this helping me, its also helping our FTW. If I get abused tragically, its FTWs reputation that will be affected! Of course, he was actually very confident about winning. Whoever it was, other than Close, they were all his little brothers. However, Wei Xiao didnt mind putting on a little brother act in order to wheedle some solo matches out of Lu Feng. Lu Feng looked down at him. Wei Xiao looked pitiful, Captain~! He dragged out the last syllable. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao clasped his hands together, Please! Lu Feng turned around and headed to the double training room. How could Wei Xiao not understand what that meant? He slid in like a slippery fish, then locked the door behind them immediately. Wei Xiao laughed sheepishly, Dont even think of leaving through this door tonight. For a moment, Lu Fengs hands felt a little itchy. On the other side, Yue Wenle, whod just finished all his training, headed to the #2 training room with four big bags of chips. Ning Zhehan had just come out. He saw this and asked, Brother Le, youre Yue Wenle carefully set the chips on the table, and deliberately tore open a pack. He chomped on a chip before saying, Im waiting for Wei Xiao. Ning Zhehan blinked, Solo? Yue Wenle: Yes. Ning Zhehan was shocked, Did you guys make an appointment? No. Yue Wenle denied, but he was very certain, He will come find me. Little Ning was puzzled, Why? Yue Wenle was full of confidence, He tossed down all that trash talk on Weibo and blew up half the Glory circle. For the sake of the solo games the day after tomorrow, hell definitely find someone to warm up with. There was no doubt that it would be him! Ning Zhehan: Yue Wenle looked at him, What? Ning Zhehan was very reluctant, but he could only tell the truth, Just Just now, I saw the captain and Brother Wei soloing. CrackleCC The chips in Old Yues hand instantly turned bland! Only Wei Xiaoxiao knew how awesome that night had really been. He felt extremely grateful for the fact that there were so many professional players in the Glory circle. He named them one by one, and had Lu Feng use the heroes they were famous for to solo with him one after another. In the end Lu Feng looked at him, Who else? Wei Xiao had really named every starter in Glory that he could think of once already. Theres, theres more! It was only 12 oclock. He wanted to continue! Lu Feng: Name. Wei Xiao almost broke his head apart trying to think and finally popped out with a name, Bai Cai! Lu Feng: Wei Xiao turned shameless, Captain, you cant look down on Brother Cai. Brother Cai is the top support in China, the famous and lofty God Bai! Lu Feng shifted his shoulders, Hes next door. Ill go call him over for you. Wei Xiao: Hey Lu Feng looked at him, Solo properly and dont lose to Bai Cai. Wei Xiao: Who would want to solo with Bai Cai the Idle?! Brother Cai, who was improving his relationship with Soybean, Achoo Soybean: Ao! Brother Cai stroked it, Nine out of ten chances your dad is talking shit about me. Finally, FTW.Quiet ushered in the first live broadcast of his career. The Strawberry platform sent out wave after wave of publicity, but in fact, there was no need to promote it. Countless fans were already crouching in the live broadcast room, waiting to watch the show. A newcomer, a newbie who nobody had ever seen and didnt know what he looked like, actually had such a high level of influence. This could be recorded in the history of Glory! Not only in China. Even across the 16 competition zones, there was nobody else who had ever accomplished this! It was time for the start of the broadcast. Wei Xiaos expression was steady and extremely calm, but Bai Cai, who was watching from the side, was really nervous. Goddamn, when it came to heart and guts, there really were different sizes. Usually, Bai Cai felt that he had enough guts, but when compared with this beast, he felt like his heart was the size of the eye of a needle! Wei Xiao turned on the mic, Is there sound? The scrolling comments exploded in a flash, Oh, your voice is so nice. It seems very young. The grandmaster actually turned out to be a little brother! You guys always call him grandmaster this and grandmaster that; I thought he was very old Some female fans began to wonder, God Q, can you turn the video~ His voice was nice to listen to, and they were curious about how he looked. Wei Xiao: Id better not. As a front-line team in the Glory circle, FTW had a lot of anti-fans. At this time, they all rushed forth to light their cannons, It seems hes ugly. An ugly daughter-in-law still has to meet her mother-in-law. Turn on the camera, youll have to show up on the court sooner or later. What kind of big move had Wei Xiao not seen before? When he flamed people, the anti-fans could only shiver and tremble in fear. Of course, he was now a professional player and had to pay attention to being civilized and literate. Wei Xiao: Mostly, Im afraid that if I turn on the video, you guys wont watch me solo anymore. The scrolling comments were abruptly full of ellipsis. Wei Xiao continued lazily, Think about it, so many players want to clear up their shame, yet in the end, youre all staring at my face. That wouldnt be good, right? He answered his own question, No, that definitely wouldnt be good. It didnt matter if they were hardcore fans, anti-fans, or passers-by. All of them: Had FTW bought back a top-laner or a trash talk king? Wei Xiao had only just logged into the game when he received a lot of friend requests. If one wanted to solo it was more convenient to add the other person as a friend first. The fans whod originally thought that no professional players would be affected by his challenge were all left with their mouths open in shock RR.Moonlit requested to add you as a friend. TPT.Eurostar requested to add you as a friend. 3U.Asleep requested to add you as a friend. They were all f*cking here! Were the managers of all the major clubs crazy? Couldnt they control their own players? Dont say it They really couldnt control them. Last night. At the RR base, Manager Chen was begging bitterly, Yueyue, can you not go to the live broadcast studio tomorrow? Moonlit sneered, The challenge gauntlet has all but hit me in the face. You want me not to go? Manager Chen had seen the replay video before, A mid-lane position isnt good at solo, and you also dont focus on it much. What if you lose? Mage king Yue was incredibly fierce, Am I afraid of losing? Manager Chen: You might not be afraid, but I am! Moonlit was very harsh to himself, If I lose, Ill add two hours of training for myself every day. Manager Chen: Emmm.... Moonlit poked straight at his heart, And add ten hours of live broadcast time every month. Manager Chen: Deal! TPT base. Coach Old Wang: You dont want to play marksman anymore? Eurostar had been a very good top-laner back then, but because hed been hammered into seclusion by the grandmaster, hed switched to the bottom lane. Now Eurostar looked calm, like an old meditative monk. Its precisely because Ive switched to marksman that I have to face him. Old Wang: I heard that his thief is the strongest. The thief has a natural advantage over archers. Arent you just rushing over to offer your head up on a silver platter? Eurostar sighed, If I dont send it over now, could it be that I should wait until were on the court? I have to adapt to the fact that FTW is about to have two demon kings. Old Wang: This was too sad and pitiful, he couldnt bear to dissuade him! 3U base. Asleep: Zzzz Manager Zhou looked at his team captain who was sleeping so soundly that not even his eyelashes were quivering, About that 3Us vice-captain: The captain said hes going. He must go. There were two unsolved mysteries in the 3U team: #1, why could their captain sleep so much, yet still be so strong; #2, how their vice-captain could translate the words from their dreaming captain so accurately. Not only did the outside world not understand, even the 3U teams internal members didnt get it! A large number of star players all reported in, and the popularity of the live broadcast was reaching official playoff levels! The passers-by were taken by surprise when they saw it and even wondered, What is it time for the Glory playoffs? It hadnt started, but this was no less exciting than a regular competition! Wei Xiao accepted the friend requests one after another. After accepting over a dozen of them, the last one blinded the entire audience of the live broadcast room. L&P.Marshal requested to add you as a friend. In a flash, the scrolling comments went so crazy that the Strawberry platform could barely bear the load. Holy shit! Its the North American competition zones L&Ps Yuan Ze! The global champion of 19, global runner up of 20. How could this person who has his name in the Temple of Glory appear here! Its fake, right? It must be fake! How could it be? Glory has certified the IDs of all registered professional players. Ordinary players cant use that name even if they wanted to! It really is God Yuan! What God Yuan? Hes a national traitor! As a Chinese citizen who had led a foreign team to blow up his own competition zone, Yuan Ze had enough anti-fans circle the Earth three times over. A man with such a bloody history actually appeared here! The live broadcast studio was really going to explode. Juurensha: Hahaha, the Asleep team captain seems fun. And poor Yue, always alone with his chips. xiin: WXs trash talk, full marks! Chapter 30.1: FTW, theres something wrong with your script! Wei Xiao certainly noticed this friend request, but he directly ignored it and skipped to the next one as he explained, On my Weibo post yesterday, I said I wouldnt reject anyone, so I didnt reject it, but I dont like Marshal and wont accept it. The anti-fans: Theyd all originally wanted to flame him, but their ammunition failed to explode. Wei Xiaos move was really brilliant: If he accepted it, hed have been labelled as a spy for the outside, and Yuan Zes haters wouldve flamed him all the way up to heaven; if he rejected it, hed be labelled with Chinese scaredy cat, and FTWs haters wouldve sent him up to heaven. Now, he chose to ignore it. It wasnt that he was afraid of some spy for the outside or Chinese scaredy cat label. He simply didnt like Yuan Ze, and hed said he wouldnt refuse anyone who came, so he hadnt rejected the friend application. Following the literal meaning and still containing a subtle criticism within, he managed to completely sidestep the situation. Even the haters had to admit that this kid not only had amazing trash talk, but his ability to manage situations was also pretty good. After dealing with the friend requests, Wei Xiao was now in a good mood. It was great playing professionally! Having people send themselves over for solo matches while streaming was a much better feeling than being the grandmaster behind the scenes! Wei Xiao was a little excited. He went back to the matching room and received a lot of applications. Lets go in order. Let me see who came first The people in the scrolling comments had also noticed this and instantly became excited, F*ck! Its God Le! Oh, f*ck me, grandmaster, youre really amazing. You have enough enemies to grow a forest outside, and still have hostility at home. God Le, God Le, have you also been abused by the grandmaster before?! Yue Wenle sat across from Wei Xiao. He crunched on his chips and said, Its not that Ive been abused. Its that Ive been abused to tears. He didnt lower his voice, and Wei Xiaos mic caught his voice very clearly, transmitting each and every word to the audience. The live broadcast rooms scrolling comments changed tone again, Holy shit! This resentment! Damn, how does my Lele cry? Hurry and cry for your big sister to hear! Fellow sisters, I think FTW has a new CP! This is quite nice to chew on, indeed. In addition to the lovely girls, there were naturally also people who were sneering cynically, FTW is really going for it, theyre lifting up this newcomer at the expense of the old. Old Yue, switch teams. FTW isnt treating you like a human, what are you staying there for?! Old Yue, if youre being threatened, just blink If there werent that many scrolling comments, he could pick out a few to respond to, but in this scenario with thousands of comments, he couldnt even read them all, and there was no need to reply. Wei Xiao poked his head out to look at Yue Wenle, Coming? Yue Wenles tone was dark, Ive been waiting for you for two days. Wei Xiao was ashamed, Its been busy. Yue Wenle shredded the chips: Really busy. So busy with the captain that you dont know what time of the day it is! These words couldnt be said, so the aggrieved Yue Wenle put forth a request, Use the thief. Wei Xiao was surprised, His lips moved, and his mouth formed the words, Im streaming, what about your dignity? Yue Wenle somehow actually understood, You have to use the thief! Wei Xiao had always been good tempered with his own people, Okay, okay, okay. Needless to say, the CP party on the scrolling comments were already standing up and cheering! The two clear, youthful voices were clean and pure. Adding in God Les bright and tender baby face, as long as Quiet looked even reasonably attractive Damn, how tasty! Some viewers were analyzing the situation rationally, FTWs newcomer is a top-laner, right? Could it be that hes also good with the thief? Thats normal, there are a few talent specs for thieves that can be used for the top lane. Hurry up! Hurry up! We want to watch a homicide! The other newcomers would also be supported by their teammates when they made their debut after joining a team, but they were very different from Wei Xiao. The others were cute newbies who double queued with their older team members and cooperated harmoniously in an atmosphere as sweet as honey. As for FTWCC Resentment, bitter hatred, and an eagerness for revenge. It was different, it was different, it was really very different! The first game began. When Yue Wenle chose the ice hunter, the audience made an Oh-ho sound. It was full of killing intent! Yue Wenles resentment must be real. He really wanted to fight to the death with Wei Xiao! In the China Glory circle, the ice hunter was basically permanently linked with Yue Wenle himself. In 5v5s BP process, in a situation where they were unable to target the great demon king, they could only target FTWs double c-positions. In a show of respect, Yue Wenles ice hunter stayed in the Ban position all year round, and he was never allowed to use it. These so-called famous heroes all seemed to carry an aura with them. The ice hunter that Yue Wenle played was different from other ice hunters. However Thieves had a natural advantage over hunters! Even if the ice hunter had a deceleration bonus that could slow down the close-combat thief, there were no teammates in a solo game. How could the ice hunter develop in the early stages? Just when the spectators thought that Wei Xiao would suppress Yue Wenle like crazy in the early stage and take away his chance to develop so that the entire match would end in 10 minutes Wei Xiao actually gave up the entire early stage. The shadow thief vs the ice hunter in a solo gameCC In the early stages, the shadow thief was the daddy and could casually mess with the ice hunter until it couldnt even stand up. However, once it dragged on to the later stage of the game, and the ice hunters godly equipment was in place, it became the real ancestor. One arrow from the ice hunter could shoot through ten thieves, got it? If the thief wasnt able to grasp the advantage in the early stages, they could do nothing but wait for death in the later stages. The scrolling comments sighed, I thought that this grandmaster was amazing, but thats all hes got. Hes playing a thief, yet hes so restrained in the early stages. Whats the point of a solo match? When the ice hunters equipment is in place, hell be able to shoot him dead with a single arrow. His reputation was so overblown, yet he messed up in the first round? And hes even losing to his own teammate? FTW, theres something wrong with your script! Lets go, lets go. What bullshit is this grandmaster, he just has a name and nothing else. It had been 15 minutes since the start of the match, and it was now at a very critical point. Yue Wenles ice hunter had saved up enough for three pieces of equipment. When the Q skill was used, it would be able to insta-kill the shadow thief The winner and loser were already determined; that was what everyone who watched the live broadcast believed. Wei Xiao curved his lips, Now, its fair. After saying these words, he went invisible with a light arc. While nobody else had yet reacted, seven light arcs covered the ice hunters head. The ice hunter used flash to no avail and ended up thoroughly dead. The scrolling comments were stunned for half a second, and then followed up with a screen full of f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck! Seven light arcs, amazing! This little brother really has some skill??? Then what was he doing in the early stage? Picking flowers in the jungle? He just said that now its fair. Could it be that he was waiting for the ice hunter to develop before he started fighting? F*ck thats too arrogant! For the next six or seven minutes, it was a total one-sided massacre. There was no need to mention the ice hunter in the canyon. Even the onlookers were practically crying. What the hell was this! Where had this crazy thief come from?! This this In the first 15 minutes of the game, the thief had clearly been unable to suppress the ice hunter, but now that it was at the stage where the ice hunter should be stronger, the ice hunter was instead forced to the ground and smeared all over the ground. Victory! Wei Xiao won. The scrolling comments were full of, Feeling heartache for God Le. Lele, dont cry. They must have switched people in the second half of the match! It was Close playing for him, right? Wei Xiao ignored the scrolling comments and stretched out his head to look at Yue Wenle, God Le? He hadnt shown any mercy and was now a little afraid that Yue Wenle would go into seclusion. Yue Wenle was dazed for a moment. Beast. Wei Xiao: Cough. He seemed fine. Yue Wenle collapsed back into his chair, Goddamn, its fortunate that laozi is in FTW. He suddenly understood Eurostars mood. As a marksman, it was very common for him to get beaten up and cut down in team games. He used to look down on Eurostars careful manner; what was there to be afraid of? Wasnt it just getting cut to death? Now, he had had his memory refreshed and remembered the fear of being dominated by the devil. Fortunately, he was in FTW. If he was in any other team, he would want to die if he encountered Wei Xiao, and there was no need to even mention Lu Feng Was Eurostar a fool? Wasnt he happy being in the top lane? Why had he switched to the bottom lane?! Wei Xiao saw that Yue Wenle was in good condition and was relieved as he continued his broadcast, Reasonably speaking, in a solo match, I only know of two people who can use the ice hunter to kill the shadow thief. The scrolling comments went wild, Close! Wei Xiao: Yes, Close can do it. Scrolling comments: Who is the other one? Everyone was speculating, but they didnt think it was very likely. In regular single player competitions, heroes were chosen at random, but the talents were up to the players. Even if it was randomized to hunter vs thief, nobody would choose ice against shadow. It was just like giving up the competition. Wei Xiao laughed lightly and answered, Me. Scrolling comments: ??? Wei Xiao explained patiently, Other than Close, Im the only other person who can win in a solo match by killing the ice hunter with a shadow thief. Scrolling comments: Grandmaster, can you be a little less shameless! Wei Xiao continued, Alright. Lets make a new rule. For the sake of fairness, Ill use the same hero and talent as anyone who comes to solo against me. As soon as his words came out, the audience went even crazier. Fair? How the f*ck was this called fair? Others would bring the heroes they were famous for to solo against him. Shouldnt he be kneeling and calling them daddy? Did he think he was Close and could do it all when it came to solo? Wake up, there wouldnt be another Close in the Glory circle for a hundred years! sponsored post 1/4 C thanks for all the ko-fis! the sponsored posts will be released every Saturday until theyre all cleared @[email protected] Chapter 30.2: Oh, and Im even sleeping with the captain The next player to play was RRs Moonlit, the China competition zones first-class mid-laner. His assassin-type mages were godly, and he was RRs well-deserved core player. It wasnt that there werent other teams in China that took its mid-laner as their core, but there hadnt been any as domineering as RR in the 2020 competition arena. He could give a squishy mage the same aura as an assassin jungler. There was no doubt about Moonlits level of skill. The audience was very delighted as soon as they saw that it was Moonlit. Grandmaster, dont talk nonsense. Youll use whatever Moon God uses? I dont think that Moon God will use the warlock. It would be too easy to win that way. The immortal warlock! Begging Moon God to use the immortal warlock! Explode the grandmasters dog head! Warlocks had quite a few talent specs that were of the mage-assassin variety. They were very suitable for assaulting the middle lane and were also very reliable in solo matches. This was particularly the case for the immortal warlock, whose ultimate move was called fly into the clouds. This move relied completely on the players level of skill; after flying up, not only could it cause explosive damage, it would also make the hero immune to nearly 70% of the nearby damage. It belonged to the hero types who had explosive damage but also had a very high skill requirement. Ordinary players could also use it to burst out with damage, but it was absolutely impossible for them to fly up whenever and however they wanted. Moonlits immortal warlock was the benchmark for the industry. There was one time in a team fight that he had flown up and never come back down again, playing out amazing moves until he made the other sides five players all go into seclusion. Give it up. If Moon God uses the immortal warlock, wont it just be like bullying children? I also think that he wont use it. Quiet is obviously a top-laner. If he uses the immortal warlock, he might not even be able to fly. But, I really want to see a solo match between two immortal warlocks. Itll be amazing and beautiful; Ill love the immortal warlock my whole life! Moonlits temperament had always been direct. He didnt say anything and entered the game, then selected the immortal warlock. F*ck! Its really the immortal warlock! Hes taking it so seriously! No way did Moonlit hear the grandmasters crazy words? Could it be that hes really going to use the immortal warlock for revenge? This revenge seems to be a little easy to get? Simple? The crowd of professional players who knew the truth: Haha, naive. Wei Xiao also selected the immortal warlock and said, Fortunately, I played it for a while the other night. Otherwise, Im afraid I might not be able to find the feel for it. It was true that this kind of explosive hero was very much based on feel. Even for Moonlit, if he didnt use the immortal warlock for a few days in a row, he may not be able to play out such extreme moves. However, for Wei Xiao to say these words Sorry, but the audience in the scrolling comments just wanted to mock him! Played it for a while? Little brother, Im afraid you wont be able to find the feeling even if you tried for two years. Its here, its here. Waiting for my Moon Gods face slapping. Show him whats what, I believe in Moon Gods immortal warlock! Im betting on Moon God this game. If he loses, Ill gift ten rockets! Its on, its on, laozi will give ten shallow water bombs! Wei Xiao glanced at this enthusiastic gift-giving army and said, Oh, right, theres a bonus for the first live broadcast. If I lose Ill release a 50,000 yuan red envelope for everyone. The audience: FTW was really rich! The game began. This solo match was more exciting than the previous one. Immortal warlocks didnt need to develop and could start fighting from the beginning of the match. It was a little difficult without their ultimate move, but this was a hero that could shuttle back and forth amidst the small soldiers as long as he had the Q skill. It was just that without the bonus from the ultimate move, the damage output would be very low. However, if one was able to jump around continuously, the accumulated damage was also quite terrible. In theory, the Q skill could be used continuously as long as the positioning was done well. Of course, this wasnt something that ordinary players could do. There also werent many professional players who could use it continuously. The upper limit allowed by the game was high enough, but how far it could go was dependent on the players skills. In just two minutes, the scrolling comments seemed to have been purified. All the voices mocking the grandmaster were gone. Amazing, really amazing, incredibly amazing! The two immortal warlocks flew here and there, and it was so f*cking dazzling! Is my Moon God normally able to fly so much? How come I remember that Moon Gods highest record was a 67 combo? Now Hes broken the record, broken the record! Moon Gods broken his own record! But the problem is, the grandmaster hasnt stopped either! Scary too scary. The gods are fighting! This solo is worth it, Moonlit is playing extraordinarily well! Really! I havent seen Moonlit operate like this on the court! This was the charm of the competition. If one could encounter an equal opponent, then it could inspire 200% of ones strength. During those years while Wei Xiao was a training partner, the reason why so many players couldnt forget him was that soloing with him allowed them to grow. The growth was at a rate visible to the naked eye. It might be painful, they might cry, but once they tenaciously passed through the grandmasters hands, almost all of these players ended up at the forefront of the professional e-sports arena. Moon God, Eurostar, Asleep There was a reason why they were all so persistent in soloing with Wei Xiao in his live broadcast studio. Clearing up their shame was false, but wanting to prove themselves was real! In the end, Wei Xiao won the game by a very narrow margin. The audience was left with their mouths open in shock, but at the same time, they were completely, utterly convinced. Boasting was very annoying, but once this boasting couldnt be poked through no matter what, then It became too exciting! Strong hes really strong! With an immortal warlock of this level, why doesnt he go mid-lane? FTWs new mid-lane is Ning Zhehan, right? Can he be as good as the grandmaster? No rush, no rush. The next game is against Eurostar. My Euro God is a marksman. Could it be that the grandmasters marksman is also very strong? Didnt you hear him? His ice hunter can kill a shadow thief! F*ck Where did FTW dig out this big treasure? Adding fuel to the fire was an ID called RR.Money who had started to buy gifts like crazy in the live broadcast studio. Hed already bought 50,000 yuan of gifts in the blink of an eye. Youre asking, who is Money? RRs rich captain! RR had two immortal players. One was the Moonlit who had made his debut at the end of 19 and rose all the way to fame, and the other was their captain, Money. Moneys real name was Mo Hui. His game ID was Money, and everyone called him Money. Why? It was because he was super rich! Currently, it was unknown which big business groups prince he was, but it was very certain that he was very rich. Even if hed fallen out with his family due to his career choice, the pocket money hed saved up in his younger days was enough that he couldnt squander it all! Money bought 50,000 yuan worth of gifts, then sent over a sentence, Grandmaster, can my familys Moon have another game? Hed spent so much money that his comment had a special effect. It was very flashy. Wei Xiao knew who this was. He greeted politely, Hello, senior! After all, it was a person from the same era as Close, and he had to be polite. Money: Youre very polite. The rich man was happy and gave him another 20,000 yuan. Wei Xiao: I also want to solo with Moon God, but theres still people in line now. Why dont we arrange for another day? Money thought about it and agreed, Thats fine, well get in touch offline. Wei Xiao: Kay. Then, he realized that he was no longer grandmaster and was now a professional player. He added, Oh, right, I have to ask my captain first. Money: Why? Wei Xiao spoke modestly, Im now relying on the captain for food, drink, and clothing, oh, and Im even sleeping with the captain, so I have to do as he says. No matter what, he couldnt offend Close. He couldnt give up the universe he had at home for the sake of a moon! Scrolling comments: Have I gone f*cking deaf?! Sleep-sleeping with the captain? God Q, did you mix up your words ahhhhhh!! Im dead, Double Feng sisters, Im sorry, Im going to support the cult for one second! FTW base. Xiang Liu quickly took out the quick-acting heart saving pill, and Chen Feng swallowed down a painkiller. Only the bold Tang Chen was laughing loudly, Little Lunatic Wei is really the limit! The limit! This was the real f*cking limit! This ordinary first broadcast really caused a stir across the entire network. There was no need to mention anything else; those who werent able to enter the FTWs live stream room were all going crazy. It could be expected from Little Lunatic Weis actions this time that their FTW would be even more rich next year! The live stream fees were going to reach the sky! The third match was against Eurostar. Marksman also had talent specs that could allow them to show off all the way to the heavens. For example, the storm hunter was one such talent spec that could make peoples scalps go numb from the awesome plays. All of Glorys bottom lane players could choose not to be proficient with the ice hunter, but they had to be skilled with the storm hunter. Because when faced with thieves, only the storm hunter had the power to stand up and fight. The storm hunter used rain arrows, which shot out raindrops. It sounded very harmless and didnt seem to have very much killing power, but in fact it was very flexible. The raindrops would mark the enemy. The core skill of the storm hunter was the W skill, which allowed them to instantly move to the nearest marked target. After that, they combined it with the Q skill to slow down the damage they were dealt, then used their ultimate move to repeat the process, and play all the way to the heavens! Eurostar chose the storm hunter, and Wei Xiao naturally also chose the storm hunter. Chen Feng looked on for a moment, then glanced at Lu Feng, Special training? Lu Feng: Mm. Chen Feng: He can understand this much from just one night It was very exaggerated, very terrible. This level of talent was really shocking. Chen Feng had felt it just from watching the match with the immortal warlocks. In theory, there was a 50% chance that Moonlit and Eurostar wouldnt lose. After all, they were rising stars in the China competition zone, and they wouldnt necessarily lose in the international arena either. Out of the 16 competition zones, the ones who could suppress them would be those old beasts whose names were in the Temple of Glory. Little Lunatic Wei was very fierce, but it wouldnt be easy for him to win against these two if he didnt use the thief. Which meant that Close must have trained him. Lu Fengs solo ability was very powerful. One reason for this was that he was very good at learning. That wasnt quite it, the word learning wasnt enough to express this ability. It was more like copying. He could accurately capture the strengths and weaknesses of every opponent hed ever come across. He could copy their advantages and avoid their disadvantages. How could anyone beat him with this? Last night, Close had used the immortal warlock and storm hunter to solo against Wei Xiao. Hed basically allowed Wei Xiao to experience how Moonlit and Eurostar fought. Chen Feng had unconsciously already picked up the tone of an old lady, You shouldnt indulge him. Whats the big deal if he loses? It would work to hone this kids spirit. Just look, hed already become so arrogant! Lu Feng spoke slowly, Its not that Im afraid hell lose Chen Feng: ? Lu Feng finished his words, I just want to see him win. CCIts not that Im afraid hell lose, I just want to see him win. Chen Feng: Youre f*cking indulging him, right?! Juurensha: Close secretly: The only one he can lose to is me! xiin: Close (not so secretly): The only one who can make him cry is me, too! *vinegar jar* Chapter 31.1: Close really spoils him enough TPT base. Eurostar leaned back in the e-sports chair and stared at the Defeat on the screen. When he used the storm hunter for solo matches, his win rate was over 95%. This game hed lost in such a really shameful way. A low and solemn male voice came from behind him, At five minutes and thirty-six seconds, your Q skill didnt match up to your auto attack, wasting a DPS opportunity; at eight minutes and twenty-three seconds, your raindrop mark failed and you couldnt shift; at twelve minutes and forty-four seconds, you hesitated in close combat and the other party seized the opportunity Eurostar looked up at his captain, Alright, my tears are going to fall. His mouth spoke such words, but in fact, his eyes were very dry. Fu Li picked up the bottle of eyedrops from the table and handed it to him. Eurostar really squeezed out two drops, and his eyes were full of tears. Fu Li: This is the person who caused you to switch lanes? Eurostar blinked, and his tears dripped down, Yes. Look, Im so sad Im crying. Fu Li was too lazy to deal with his act. He looked down at the data in his hands and said, Have you soloed with him recently? Eurostar: I never met him again after becoming a starter. Fu Li shared his conclusion, Close really spoils him enough. Eurostar understood what he meant by this. Hed felt it during his match with Quiet. This kid had been very familiar with his playing methods, and had played very steadily, paying attention to some small details where he was prone to make mistakes. Wei Xiao had deliberately avoided his strengths, and directly targeted his shortcomings. This kind of feeling It was like meeting the great demon king in the individuals competition. He had never soloed with the grandmaster again after he switched to the bottom lane, so the only way Wei Xiao could know him so well would be because Lu Feng had given him pointers. After all, there was nobody in the Glory professional circles who didnt know about the great demon kings ability to copy. Eurostar sighed, A genius like this, how could he not spoil him. Fu Li was born with paralyzed facial expressions, and he never smiled. His unsmiling face was different from Lu Fengs. Lu Feng was cold all year round, and paired with that face of his, the fans only dared to howl and cry in secret. Fu Li was serious and rigid. He was a top student from South University whod suspended his studies, and was the famous data emperor of the Glory circle. His operations werent the most outstanding, and his technical ability wasnt the strongest, but his tactics were definitely strong enough to go up against the heavens. TPTs coach, Old Wang, was more like a manager. It was Captain Fu Li who really shouldered most of a coachs work. This contestant in the starter team could do better analysis than most of Chinas coaches. Fu Li: Tell me what you know about Quiet. Eurostar understood his captains temperament and recounted everything he knew in detail. One Lamp Grandmaster had become a legend in the Glory circle over the past two years, but this legend was only limited to the second teams in each club and the new generation of contestants. The older players didnt know much about it. For one, Bai Cai would only target players from the second teams or little-known smaller clubs. He wouldnt contact players from teams that were pillar, or backbone teams. Of course, even if he did contact them, they might not agree to come. Secondly, the players whod been abused by the grandmaster were young and full of energy. At that age, their hearts and dignity were more important than anything else. They wouldnt cry to their elders about how theyd been abused by an outsider until they wanted to go into seclusion even if they died. Oh, and theyd also spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy this kind of abuse. How could teenagers of 18 and 19 ever say it out loud! So, not only did Fu Li and Money not know any details about the grandmaster; if Lu Feng hadnt poked through Bai Cai and Wei Xiaos business, then he also wouldnt know about Grandmasters existence, let alone know that Wei Xiao was still thinking about the professional arena. After listening to Eurostars narration, Fu Li frowned, Hes the best with thieves? Eurostar: To be exact, its the jungler position. Fu Li held a slender pen in his hand and scribbled lightly on the paper. Eurostar knew that this signified that the captain was thinking, and he continued, As far as I know, he really likes Close. He loses his head every time he watches Closes matches, so hes very good at all the heroes that Close is good at. The tip of Fu Lis pen stopped. He laughed lightly, and his eyes flashed, Its great. Lu Feng finally let go. Eurostar: Hm? Fu Li stood up, Be prepared. FTWs jungler is going to change. His words were light and casual, but they were enough to shock Eurostar, What?! There were many people like Eurostar who knew of One Lamp Grandmaster, but none of them thought that FTWs jungler would change after learning that the grandmaster had joined FTW. It was true that the grandmaster was very strong in the jungler position, but how could he be stronger than Close? Amongst the new generation of the China competition zone, Closes jungler was tantamount to a belief. Even if FTW closed down for good, they would still never give the jungler position to anyone else. This was something that countless fans, players included, all believed. But now Eurostar, who believed in his captains conjecture, bounced up and exclaimed, F*ck! Close is going to switch to top-lane? Damn it, who can hold him down?! Hed originally thought that TPT was ready to take FTWs place in the global competition this year and obtain the championship, but unexpectedly, FTW was even more fierce! Theyd cut the great demon king loose. Wasnt this just cutting off all possible roads for everyone else?! The fourth match was with 3Us Asleep. Wei Xiao had a very deep impression of Asleep. One year ago, theyd soloed for several hundred matches. By the end, the win rate for the two had reached 50-50. Asleep only played assassin heroes, and he was most skilled at the berserker thief. The berserker thief and the shadow thief were very different. The former was very aggressive. It could lead the rhythm of the game, and once its momentum picked up, it could suppress the other side until they couldnt breathe. In fact, four years ago, the shadow thief was the favorite hero of countless jungler players, and they loved it to death. Later on, Close appeared. He used the shadow thief and took the world crown in one grand sweep, and the shadow thief began to decline. It wasnt that nobody loved it, but rather that they loved it too much. The game planners felt that the hero was too strong and impacted the balance of the game, so theyd sliced it down with a few cuts. With these first, second, and three cuts, as of now, other than Close who could still use it to pull off amazing plays, the shadow thief had become a hero that even ordinary professional players were wary of using. It was the berserker thief whod taken over as the most beloved jungler hero after the shadow thief. The berserker thiefs weapon was a slender death scythe, and it had a very long blade. It was like a declaration of death for anyone it hooked around. The passive ability that made this talent spec match with its name was that once the berserker thief killed a player, they would enter a state of rage. Their stats would double, and they would kill people like cutting down melons and vegetables; this feeling was so great they could fly up to the heavens! Asleep was a player who was zzz-ing if he wasnt eating or playing games, but he was born looking pale and gentle, and his sleepy eyes and hazy appearance gave off a kind of lazy handsomeness. A screenshot of him yawning on the competition court could make his fans love him, then love him more. He was like a reincarnation of a koala in his daily life, but on the court, he was reckless and crazy. It was especially the case when he used the berserker thief. His roiling murderous aura was enough to burn up the entire canyon! The 3U team had been famous for its gentle and delicate style before they signed him. After he joined the team, their style changed a lot. There was no more gentle and delicate style, and it was all rage and wanton recklessness! Hey, Asleep. Wei Xiao sat up straight. Out of his many clients, the one whod given him the strongest impulse to solo was Asleep. He also played the jungler position, was similarly proficient with thieves, and had also entered the circle after watching Closes competition, and also wanted to beat Close. When they entered the hero selection interface, the live broadcast had already filled with the scent and smoke of war. Aaaaah God Sleep! My Sleep God is invincible when he wakes up! Fellow brothers, lets raise the bet. My life savings are all here, and I bet that Asleep will win! Sisters, lets draw our knives, Sleep-sleep is mine alone! The scrolling comments were bustling. As a rising star in the China competition zone, Asleeps level of popularity was terrifying. Wei Xiao asked, Berserker thief? Asleep: Shadow. Wei Xiaos lips curved, You sure? Asleep: Start. Wei Xiao shifted his fingers, and started the match. The berserker thief was Asleeps favorite hero, but the shadow thief was Wei Xiaos. If Wei Xiao used the berserker thief to solo with Asleep, Wei Xiao had a 60% chance of losing. But if they used the shadow thief Sorry, but even looking at the entire Glory circle, other than Close, there was nobody who could even think of winning! 3U base. Manager Zhou was very nervous, Why doesnt Asleep use the berserker thief? Moonlit and Eurostar had both lost. If Asleep can win this time, it would definitely be a great opportunity to pick up fans! This newcomer to FTW was really powerful. The value hed created with just one day of effort was enough to make all the capitalists red-eyed with envy. Manager Zhou was a business minded manager, and he couldnt help but want to snatch up a share. The vice-captain answered, No point. Manager Zhou was silent for a moment, Itll make a difference if he wins! What did he mean, there was no point? If he could really win against this arrogant and domineering FTW newcomer, then wouldnt Asleep be The vice-captain paused, then turned to give Manager Zhou a smile, What if he loses with the berserker thief? Manager Zhou: ! The vice-captain smiled gently, but the smile didnt reach his eyes, Asleeps berserker thief is a signboard. Losing to a top-laner isnt very appropriate. Manager Zhou was a little afraid of this person Compared with the obedient Asleep, the one he couldnt understand the most was the vice-captain Cong Yi whod grown up with Asleep, and had a tacit understanding with Asleep even when they played games. Manager Zhou sighed, Forget it, its not a big deal losing with the shadow thief. Its still better than RR and TPT who lost with their own strongest heroes. Cong Yi didnt say anything else. He simply stared at the screen, watching the two shadow thieves in the canyon. In fact, Asleeps favorite thief talent was the shadow thief. Most of the Glory circle praised Asleeps berserker thief, but Cong Yi knew that it was because the shadow thief belonged to Close that 3U had tied the berserker thief together with Asleep as a commercial gimmick, and stuck him with the label of loving the berserker thief the most. This wasnt a big deal. After all, Asleep liked all assassin type heroes. Only, when he soloed with the grandmaster, he wanted to prove himself with the shadow thief. After more than one year of training up his berserker thief, he had the confidence to win against the grandmaster. However, the one that Asleep was unable to let go of and move past was actually the grandmasters shadow thief. A shadow thief that was inferior to Close, yet arrogant enough not to be shrouded in Closes shadow. This was the shadow thief that Asleep yearned for. Chapter 31.2: Little friend, look at me Solo games between thieves were very fun to watch, especially when it came to shadow thieves. The hero had been cut down by the planners several times, and the skill requirement was now too high for ordinary players. This was particularly the case when it came to the fatal ultimate move, the light arcs. With the limiting requirement of continuous attack, the difference between those who could wield it and those who couldnt was like the difference between heaven and earth. Hand speed was one factor, and the attack speed bonus from equipment was another factor. If the player wanted to generate over six light arcs, they had to have extremely precise calculation, a high level of technical skill, and intense concentration. Scrolling comments: When the grandmaster soloed with God Le earlier, he created seven light arcs, right Yes! Seven light arcs are really dazzling. Its explosive! Especially Closes Red Sky Blade skin. The special effects are different for every additional light arc, its too detailed! Speaking of which, ever since the Red Sky Blade skin appeared, nobody has used it to show off nine light arcs! Wake up, brother. Other than Close, theres nobody else who can do nine light arcs! Ah, why doesnt Close do live broadcasts? He doesnt need to do anything, just show us a series of nine light arcs so that we can see the special effects! Just wait, hell use it for sure after the competition. Thats such a long time to wait ahhhh In the canyon, Wei Xiao and Asleep both used the Red Sky Blade skin. Shadow thieves dressed all in black, with only a short blade that carried a bloodthirsty light, like a fierce animal ready to attack at any time. They fought, they provoked, and they traded blood for blood. Neither Wei Xiao nor Asleep died in the first 10 minutes, but the fight was so fierce that even the scrolling comments held their breath. The moves were too precise, and their operations too delicate and refined. Moreover, the aura of dominating their opponent spread across the canyon, making it so that nobody dared to even breathe. Finally 18 minutes later, two shadow thieves moved at the same time! The shadow thiefs core skill was the deadly light arc. For each additional light arc, the damage would double, and the attack range would expand. This was a geometric number, meaning that the damage caused by seven light arcs was twice as much as that of six light arcs! And the 18 minute point was crucial. This was because the equipment for both thieves had been completed. Only when the equipment helped them increase their attack speed to the fullest were they able to fight purely with hand speed. F*ck! The scrolling comments blew up! What kind of f*cking immortal operations are these?! Seven light arcs! My Asleeps shadow thief can also release seven light arcs! No you guys, look at Quiet ahhhh! Eight light arcs The Red Sky Blade skins effects are for real. Eight light arcs are enough to light up half the canyon. Its hard to imagine how terrible a sight nine light arcs would be After this wave of fighting, Asleeps shadow thief toppled to the ground. The deadly light arcs wouldnt make one immune to damage, but when two shadow thieves used light arcs at the same time, distance also needed to be considered. The range for seven arcs was different from that of eight arcs. Wei Xiao had jumped out of Asleeps attack range, but Asleep was still within his. Such explosive damage was smashed down directly, and Asleep, who had no defensive equipment, could only end up with his health emptied out completely. It was too deadly to die at such a late stage in the game. The resurrection time was too long. Wei Xiao led a new wave of soldiers and charged down all the way to Asleeps tower. Asleep used a set of skills as soon as he resurrected, forgoing the tower in exchange for Wei Xiaos life, but unfortunately, he was unable to deal with the artillery soldiers. As the interface darkened, the soldiers destroyed Asleeps resurrection crystal. Victory! Wei Xiao won again! The scrolling comments were quiet for three seconds, and then it was all filled with rainbow farts. Hed used the immortal warlock to win against Moonlit. Won against Eurostar with the storm hunter. Won against Asleep with the shadow thief. Damn, was this really just a top-laner? Was FTW training up a new great demon king? Could it be that FTW was trying to build a monopoly over the single player competition in the future? Taking home both the championship and the runner-up trophy? After that came another dozen matches. Yu Fei, Chen Chao, Xia Dan, and Blue all showed up, but their competitiveness was average, and theyd mostly come for entertainment. Especially the shameless Xia Dan, who insisted on playing two against one with Blue. Blue held back for a brief moment, Thats not very good. But hed already set up a doubles room and pulled in Xia Dan before inviting Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao didnt reject anyone and really went ahead with the match. Then, he pressured them down onto the ground and hammered them flat. Xia Dan: F*ck! Next time Ill try three against one! Blue said again, Thats not very good, we should consider five against one. In the live broadcast room, the audience was laughing and scolding them for putting up such a show. Why didnt they go and perform cross talk! Wei Xiao glanced at the time and saw that it was basically enough. He wasnt tired, but hed emptied out the list of opponents. Although there were many professional players in the circle, there were only a few who were top-notch. Hed hammered everyone from start to end, and it was time to stop. Just then, the live broadcast rooms scrolling comments were covered up with bright special effects. L&P.Marshal gifted Deep Water Torpedo x100. L&P.Marshal gifted Deep Water Torpedo x200. L&P.Marshal gifted Deep Water Torpedo x300. L&P.Marshal gifted Deep Water Torpedo x400. In just a few minutes, Marshal had gifted 1000 Deep Water Torpedoes. One torpedo was 100 yuan; this was 100,000 f*cking yuan! The audience were all shocked silly. What kind of situation was this? L&Ps Yuan Ze hadnt left yet? He was still in the live broadcast room? Had he been watching all the way until now? And after watching, hed swiped out 100,000 RMB worth of gifts for Wei Xiao? The little sisters were going to come up with something unspeakable any minute now! L&P.Marshal: Little friend, look at me. Scrolling comments: F*ck! Wei Xiao gave a shallow, insincere laugh, Hello, God Yuan. L&P.Marshal sent his message along with another gift, Do you want to have a solo game with me? Wei Xiaos pupils contracted when he saw this line of text. The audience became even more excited. Compared with Yuan Zes words, the delicious matches from earlier were no different from the appetizers before the main course for a high end French meal! It had only served to whet their appetite; the main course had only just arrived! Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes! The scrolling comments were going crazy. Three years. Its been three years since Ive seen God Yuan solo! What happened? Didnt the Team of Gods abandon the singles and switch to group fights? Why Wait Why is God Yuans first solo after his comeback not against Close?! This was already enough to make the audience go crazy, but after that, something that made millions of Glory gamers go even more wild came through from Wei Xiaos headset! Hes tired. Lu Fengs voice was deep and clear. Theres no need to cut out excerpts from the scrolling comments. A large number of wife fans, girlfriend fans, CP fans, and technical fans were all shocked, and the strawberry platform frantically tried to increase its bandwidth Lu Feng: If you want to solo, Ill do it. Audience: !!!!!!!!!!!!! What! What is this?! Close and Marshals great world war? Fellow sisters who root for the Team of Gods, its the As Long As Im Alive series ahhhhh! Newcomer: Team of Gods? Dont inquire, you dont want to know, dont ask, asking is abuse! Wei Xiao looked at his own captain and blinked. Lu Feng turned off his mic, Hes bullying you. Wei Xiao: Im not scared of him! Lu Feng: You cant win against him now. Wei Xiao: I Lu Feng turned on the mic, Be good. Wei Xiao: Scrolling comments: ??? Sorry, what is the Team of Gods? Thats not important. Fellow sisters, FTW is currently full of sugar! As soon as Lu Feng spoke, the big hungry wolf whod been playing tricks on little children no longer made any noise. A while later, an equally bright message appeared on the scrolling comments along with another Deep Water TorpedoCC L&P.Gary: Captins internet brokenn Old Gs exotic, extremely recognizable Martian text showed up. Although they were in the China competition zone, as part of a powerful team in Glory, Gary also had fans in China God G! Were begging you, dont learn Chinese from God Yuan! The northeasterner accent from before was very cool. How come its now Martian text?? God Yuan is toying with GG again, wuwuwu, GG is so cute, Im loving the Martian text. Old Gs crappy Chinese wasnt enough for him to understand much of the scrolling comments, but he continued to help his captain relay the message, Close! The Captin cant solo with u, but I can ! The scrolling comments were there to help him translate: God Lu! GG says that his captain cant solo with you, but he can! Without waiting for Lu Feng to say anything, Wei Xiao had already spoken up, Ill play. The clear, youthful voice was clearly transmitted across the live broadcast platform to the tens of millions viewers. It also reached Yuan Zes ears in the North American base. His mouth was tilted as he lit up a cigarette. Wei Xiao: Let me explain, My captains internet isnt broken, and hes not deserting, but theres no need for him to come up on stage in order to win against you. Im already enough. There was a click as the lighter lit up. Yuan Ze inhaled through the cigarette and chuckled, This kid. Gary exploded instantly, F*CK! Yuan Ze got up and arrived behind Gary, Get up. Old G turned to look at him. Yuan Zes expression behind the halo of smoke was implacable, Let me give him a try. Gary was stunned, With my account? Yuan Ze: Yes. Otherwise, a certain overprotective fellow wouldnt give him the chance. Chapter 32.1: Captain, dont give such a deep confession so easily, I cant handle it. Gary was very reluctant, Thats not very good Ah, this kid was so strong. Hed been hammered by that kids divine warrior, and now he wanted to get even. How could Yuan Ze not understand him? He laughed and cursed, Move. Gary was aggrieved. He was a big, sturdy man, dawdling in the e-sports chair. Yuan Ze set the bait, Theres a training match with Pro the day after tomorrow. Ill help you make an appointment with Sung-hyun after the match. Gary jumped up immediately, Really! Pro was the seeded team of the Korean competition zone. In recent years, theyd achieved good results. Kim Sung-hyun was the teams bottom lane, the top ADC in the Temple of Glory, and had once been a starting player of the FTW team, and Yuan Ze and Lu Fengs teammate. Kim Sung-hyun, a Korean, had left FTW three years ago to return to his home country and play for the Pro team. Although Pro had been unable to win the world championship in recent years, Kim Sung-hyun had taken two championships in the doubles competition and made it to the finals many times in the team competition. Pro was gaining momentum and was confident in winning the 2021 championship. There was no doubt that Garys favorite solo opponent was Close, but it was too difficult to make an appointment with Close. That person was addicted to team games, and any spare time he had was spent on 5v5. He wasnt addicted to solo at all, yet hed won one individual championship after another, making others so angry their livers hurt. Other than Close, Garys next favorite opponent was undoubtedly Kim Sung-hyun. He and Kim Sung-hyun didnt solo, though; they played doubles matches. Yuan Ze would team up with him, and theyd fight against Kim Sung-hyun and his support. Gary liked playing doubles with Yuan Ze, because with Yuan Ze there, he could be unbridled, reckless, and single-minded, and it was an incredibly good feeling. This bait was too attractive. Old G hurriedly stood up and made way, Come, come, come, Quiet is yours! Yuan Ze sat down, set down his half finished cigarette in the ashtray, and moved his fingers. There was already no way to see the scrolling comments clearly. This was one major event after another. Almost half of the Glory circle fans had already rushed over. Fans of domestic teams, fans of individual players, the anti-fans who enjoyed flaming, and the keyboard warriors were all raring to go, with the scene now rowdy enough to reach the skies. There were those who were analyzing the battle situation, those who were analyzing the win rate, those who were placing bets, and there were also the girls talking about CPs, getting excited about all the content This was one good thing about having so many scrolling comments. Nobody cared what everyone else was doing, because in any case, they all had their own opinions, and they couldnt start a fight even if they wanted to. Wei Xiao was really looking forward to it. Today was really a pretty good day. Hed soloed with so many professional players in China, and now he could even have a solo match with last years runner up. No matter what He had made a killing! Playing professionally was really great, playing professionally was really a happy thing. Wei Xiaoxiao was in a wonderful mood. And then His captain shut down his microphone. Wei Xiao looked up, Captain? Lu Feng: Ill play. Wei Xiao: ??? Lu Feng spoke, Ill solo with him. Wei Xiao clenched his hands into fists and said in shock, Captain, how could you be like this? You soloed with Old G so many times a few days ago, and you even disdained him and said that you didnt want to solo with him. Why now This was an opportunity that had come to his hands with much difficulty. Even if it was Close, he didnt want to let go of it! Lu Feng was very straightforward, Yuan Ze is on the other side. Wei Xiao: There were many people in the training room. Almost everyone had come to watch the show. Chen Feng raised his eyes to look at Lu Feng, and even Tang Chen had slowed down the majority of his giggles. Wei Xiao slapped his thigh, This man is such a dog, he even fights for other people! Everyone: Little Lunatic Wei, you were really able grasp the key point. Wei Xiao became even more reluctant to leave his seat, Dont blame me for his lack of kindness, Im going to hammer him until he explodes! Wei Xiao had been very upset about losing in the previous training match against Yuan Ze and really wanted to fight back. Lu Feng looked at him, Hell make fun of you. Wei Xiao didnt care, Im not afraid of losing. Besides, if I cant hold up, I deserve to be toyed with. Losing just means I have to train harder! Everyone in the room was helpless towards this attitude of his, thoroughly convinced. Just based on how hed aimed at Close for solo matches, it could be seen that this kid was really unafraid of losing. Others might go into seclusion from losing, but he would only grow more excited. Lu Feng: I dont want that. Wei Xiao paused. Lu Feng stared at the ID on the screen, You are FTWs Quiet. Youre our miracle soldier. Why should he be allowed to test you. These words landed in the training room, and everyones heart heated up. Old Bai grinned widely, Ning Zhehans expression was moved. Yue Wenle lowered his head to eat his chips. Chen Feng held his forehead, and Tang Chen once again started to be foolishly happy. As for the Little Lunatic Wei Hey, Wei Xiao was awkward and embarrassed, Captain, dont give such a deep confession so easily. I cant handle it. Isnt it just a solo match? You can have it, you can have it. Everyone: Old Yue didnt crunch his chips properly and ended up coughing violently. Wei Xiao glanced at him, God Le, dont be jealous. Theres no helping it, who told me to join the team late and make it so that only I can be the miracle soldier? Yue Wenle: F*ck He coughed so hard that his ears turned red. In the future, when Wei Xiao was there, he wouldnt dare to eat potato chips any more. Hed f*cking die if he wasnt careful! Wei Xiao hurriedly poured him a glass of water, Slow down, slow down, dont get too excited. Yue Wenle didnt dare drink this water, for fear that he would end up dead in this training room. Wei Xiao became happier the more he thought about it. He looked at Xiang Liu and asked, Brother Liu, can I still change my ID? Hed only just joined the team. He probably wasnt registered with the gaming committee yet Xiang Liu clenched his hand around a quick-acting heart-saving pill, Isnt Quiet a good ID? Wei Xiao was very happy, I feel that Miracle Soldier is better. What do you guys think? Everyone: Get lost! The entire room wanted to beat him up, but it was Lu Feng who resolved it, Miracle Soldier is no good, its too long. Wei Xiao was relieved, Thats true. Then well stick with Quiet. He paused, then said excitedly, Also, I can give Quiet another explanation in Chinese, so that when they see Quiet, they think of the words miracle soldier. FTW.Quiet is FTWs miracle soldier, right! Lu Fengs lips curved briefly, Mm. The entire room was left speechless. Although it left everyone unable to say anything, it also strangely gave everyone a shot of heated passion straight to the heart. This little bastard didnt have a door on his mouth, and he didnt watch his thoughts either. He clearly said whatever came to mind, yet it was able to drive the emotions of people around him. While he was being noisy and playful, he somehow still pulled off a wanton recklessness that went up to the skies! At this moment, the audience in the live broadcast studio didnt know what they were watching. They thought that this was a duel between Quiet and Gary, and they thought that this was a fight between FTWs domineering newcomer and the runner up of last years singles competition. That was already enough for them to be bursting with excitement. If they knew that it was Lu Feng playing Quiets account, and Yuan Ze playing Garys account, the strawberry platform servers probably wouldnt be able to handle the terrifying levels of traffic. In the rooms chat boxCC Gary: Use wat? As the person who taught Old G this Martian text, Yuan Ze used it with what could only be called an easy familiarity. Afraid that Quiet wouldnt be able to understand, the scrolling comments helped him translate, God G wants to know what you want to use! Quiet: Power thief. Gary: No shade thief? Not using the shadow thief? Quiet: Im a top-laner. The power thief talent spec was for the top-lane. Although ordinary players used the power thief for jungling, in competitive matches,practically nobody used the power thief to jungle, and it was a standard top-lane hero. Lu Feng was saying this with Quiets account, but Chen Feng and Tang Chen, who both knew the truth, knew that he was saying it about himself. Gary was a jungler. At this moment, the one using his ID was Yuan Ze, who was also a top-laner. Quiet appeared to be a top-laner, but in fact, Lu Feng intended for him to be the jungler, and FTWs real top-laner would be Lu Feng. For this match, using the power thief was the right choice. Two top-laners who were destined to mutually attack each other started pounding the war drums ahead of time! Although he couldnt solo, Wei Xiao was still very interested in watching Lu Feng solo. He would get excited when he watched training videos between Lu Feng and Old G in the past, so there was no need to talk about his state now as he watched Lu Feng play against Yuan Ze. It had to be said that Yuan Ze hadnt participated in the individual competitions for three years. Nobody knew what this previous solo kings level was like. No matter which of the other four members of the Team of Gods were to solo against Lu Feng, it would still be big enough news to shake the global Glory circle. There was no helping it. FTWs Team of Gods had been too god-like. And yet, after they dissolved and went their own ways, they became even more godly, making tens of thousands of fans endlessly curious about the topic. A team of five had all left their names in the Temple of Glory. This was the most brilliant stroke in the history of Glory. The match began. The power thief was very suited for one-on-one fights out of all the thief talents. The top-lane hero was always intended to bear the pressure of the lane alone, and sometimes, one player even needed to keep two opponents busy in order to create more opportunities for their teammates. So, even if Yuan Ze hadnt participated in the individual solo competitions for many years, his solo level was still very high. This could already be seen from his operations during the team competitions. Wei Xiao was afraid of disturbing Lu Feng, so he crowded together with Yue Wenle to watch the live broadcast. Old Yue choked and didnt dare to eat his chips. Wei Xiao asked, Are they delicious? Yue Wenle: Wei Xiao: Can I have some? Old Yue handed him the chips. His emotions were tired. Wei Xiao crunched on a chip, Theyre really good! Yue Wenle was delighted inside but spoke in a restrained tone, These are all the best ones that Ive picked out from many. Theyre crispy, tasty, and Wei Xiao: Quickly look at the captain! Hes really learned it well, it looks like a power thief that Im playing! Yue Wenle looked at the live broadcast and also didnt care about elaborating further on his chips. Chapter 32.2: Captain, I want more! Lu Fengs terrifying ability to mimic couldnt be fully felt without personal experience. Watching him manipulate a hero the same way as oneself, that feeling was really intense. Wei Xiao: Its like Im looking in the mirror! He and Yue Wenle had soloed many times, and Yue Wenle had a very deep impression of his power thief. At present the power thief in the game was really like Wei Xiao, all the way down to its bones. Lu Feng imitated Wei Xiaos tactics at the start of the game so that Yuan Ze wouldnt be able to find any flaws. And Yuan Ze indeed didnt notice that the players had changed. Old G commented from the side, This kid is really good. Hes still able to grab resources despite your oppression. Yuan Ze: Very delicate movements. Old G: Not only is it delicate, his guts are also bold and fat. Yuan Ze: This kid is very excellent, but theres this kind of The word familiarity hadnt been said yet when he was forcefully stabbed into the ground by the other sides power thief! Old G: Yuan Ze: F*ck. The power thief was a hero with eight skills. It had two forms, and once a set of moves was used, damage would start to stack. If the hero moved carelessly, once a certain layer of damage was added up, the damage would detonate, ignoring the opponents armor and defense and directly topple their opponent. Yuan Ze couldnt be any more familiar with the power thief, but hed been careless. He hadnt really taken this newbie whod just started his professional career as a real opponent. He hadnt been playing seriously and had had an attitude of teasing and probing. So Old G exclaimed, FTW really hid a trump card, I dont believe that he just joined the team. This way of tossing out damage is obviously the way Close plays! Gary played against Close all year round and was far more familiar with the current Close than Yuan Ze, an old teammate from a team that had disbanded over three years ago. Yuan Ze froze for a moment, Motherf*cker, this is Close. He had wanted to trick the other party, but hed been the one falling into a trap instead. Three years ago, hed sworn that he would never solo against Little Lu Feng F*ck! Damnit! Old G was stunned, Close? He came back to his senses in an instant. That made sense. With Lu Fengs heaven defying ability to copy, it was a very easy thing for him to imitate Quiet. Old G: Why is he playing for Quiet? Yuan Ze acted like hed been scalded, tossing away the keyboard and mouse as he said, I knew that he was overprotective, but I didnt think it would be to this extent. Old G realized, He guessed that you were playing? Yuan Ze was really powerless, You go, you go, you solo with him. Gary was pressed into the e-sports chair and was super aggrieved, Youre the one who wanted to fight, and now youre the one who doesnt want to fight As soon as Yuan Ze saw the situation, he simply shut down the machine. Old G: ??? Yuan Ze: Or is it that you want me to surrender? Old G shook his head like crazy, Persimmons can be killed, but cant be entered! Even Teacher Yuan whod been the one to teach him Chinese was confused for a moment, ? Oh hed figured it out. It was a scholar prefers death to humiliation. Shutting down was equivalent to dropping offline. The Gary in the game simply stood at the crystal and didnt come out anymore. The audience in the studio: ??? Whats going on? Losing without fighting? No way Although Quiet has some strong points, God G isnt that bad. Old G hasnt even started yet, how come he Xiang Liu received an overseas call from the manager of L&P, Sorry, the bases network isnt stable, and the internet disconnected. I heard that Gary was soloing with you guys The manager spoke a whole bunch of lightning-quick English words, and it was fortunate that Brother Lius English was good, and he actually understood. He set down the phone and spread his hands, L&P disconnected. Everyone: Lu Feng stood up and freed up his position. Wei Xiao was confused, Yuan Ze discovered you? Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao was very puzzled, Why wont he solo with you? Lu Feng didnt answer. He pointed to the headset, Turn on the mic and explain it to everyone. Since the microphone was on, Wei Xiao didnt ask any further. He sat down and told everyone about the mystery of L&Ps disconnecting internet. All sorts of things were being said in the scrolling comments, and the overall atmosphere was pretty good. After all, it was L&P whod disconnected, not their own FTW. The one whod retreated without fighting was Gary, not Quiet. Someone in the audience asked, God Q, are you still broadcasting? We havent seen enough! Today had really been filled with ups and downs, and it was too addictive, making people reluctant to see it end. They also wanted to see more of this FTW newcomers awesome operations. This kind of feeling where they couldnt guess what would happen next and what hed show them in the next second was too great! Wei Xiao was already unable to find anyone to solo with. He was just about to say that hed see everyone tomorrow Lu Fengs voice came, Invite me. Wei Xiao paused. The madame fans and the girlfriend fans in the scrolling comments had extremely sharp ears. They caught Lu Fengs voice and exploded into fireworks on the spot. Wei Xiao tilted his head to look at Lu Feng, Solo? Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao was instantly excited, With me? Lu Feng: Who else? Wei Xiao was so happy he practically flew up to heaven, Come, come, come! He spoke to the audience in the live broadcast studio while inviting Lu Feng into the room, The next solo is between Close and Quiet. Everyone, please enjoy it and remember to record the screen! He didnt try to conceal the excitement in his voice at all, and the fans could all hear it clearly. The fans were all excited, and purple scrolling comments appeared one after another, dazzling the eyes. Wei Xiao didnt want to pay attention to the scrolling comments at all. He asked Lu Feng, What do you want to play? Lu Feng: What do you want to play? Wei Xiaos eyes brightened, Shadow thief! Lu Feng: Alright. Wei Xiao was happy enough to explode: Hed made a killing today, a giant killing! It was even better than before! Wei Xiao had used the shadow thief four times today. The first time was with Yue Wenle, the second time was against Asleep, the third time was against the shameless double team Xia Dan and BlueCCif it wasnt for the shadow thief, he wouldnt have been able to kill the two squishy, high DPS heroes in a one against two fight. This was the fourth time, with Close. What made it even more exciting was that Close had also picked the shadow thief. The number of viewers in the live broadcast studio surged to new heights again. Today was really amazing. Future generations would probably never be able to surpass Wei Xiaos live broadcast premiere. Individual matches against the major star players in the domestic competition zone, the battle against last years individual competition runner up, and Closes first appearance with the Red Sky Blade skin This was a multilayer stacked effect, and Glory fans felt like it was New Year! Nine light arcs! I want to see the Red Sky Blades special effects! Its here, its here, hes here with his Red Sky Blade! Im so satisfied. Todays really explosively exciting! The shadow thiefs Red Sky Blade was the championship skin for the season. It was specifically dedicated to Close. The different effects from the deadly light arcs were all tailored for him. After all, nine arcs Other than him, there was almost nobody else in Glory who could use it. At the start of the match, the audience could feel a different kind of atmosphere. These two people must solo together often! It was obvious at first sight that Quiet and Close were so familiar with each other they couldnt be any more familiar. It was very exciting and very fun to watch, yet it was also filled with a strange sense of harmony. Quiets shadow thief was like a little madman, ferocious and aggressive. He appeared reckless, yet he didnt make mistakes, and his attention to detail was amazing. In the heart of most fans, Closes shadow thief was a great demon king who controlled the scene. Regardless of whether it was solo or 5v5, the canyon that he was present in was always filled with tension and pressure that could practically be seen with the naked eye. Not even mentioning the players he was up against, even the audience watching the game felt nervous. However, this game was different. Lu Feng never took it easy on Wei Xiao, and his operations and attitude were both serious, but it felt different. Closes shadow thief was like a thick fog that shrouded the canyon, but Quiets shadow thief was fearless, like a dazzling light blade that broke through the thick fog, allowing infinite light to cover the arena! 18 minutes. Both thieves had their full equipment sets, and everyone held their breath. It was coming The Red Sky Blades nine light arcs What exactly did it look like The two shadow thieves moved at the same time. This scene was very similar to the match between Quiet and Asleep, but the result was reversed. The eight light arcs lit up half the canyon, but this dazzling brilliance was like a shimmering fire beneath the glow from the nine light arcs. Everyone who saw it blew up on the spot. The hidden shadow thief, the cold-blooded killer, set off a wave of heat with arcs that crossed the sky. It was like a volcano erupting in the canyon! The special effects of the eight light arcs and nine light arcs appearing simultaneously made people doubt whether or not their computers were crashing. The scene stopped at this endless splendor. The audience didnt even notice when the game had ended. Winning or losing was no longer important. This wonderful match made everyone feel numb. What was the fun in competitive gaming? Was it a contest in strength? A balance in power? Competition amongst equals? More than that It was definitely not just that. What made it so fun was the chase! The hope! Even if the opponents strength was invincible, the eagerness to continue pushing through was enough to make the blood boil! Unyielding, fearless, defiant. This was the competitive spirit that was shown in the face of a strong opponent! Quiet was like a cluster of stubbornly burning flames. It seemed to be far off from a raging fire, yet if you gave him the chance, time, and experience, he was bound to set off a raging fire! What brought the audiences attention back to reality was the youths excited appeal, Again! The last sentence that came before the live broadcast turned off also came from Wei XiaoCC Captain, I want more! Oh, the word solo had been cut off and didnt broadcast. Tens of millions of scrolling comments swept by like a torrent: ???????????? xiin: WX C Captain, I want more SOLO SOLO SOLO SOLO SOLO! LF C No, no, you just want more of me ^_^ Chapter 33.1: Did you start dreaming even before falling asleep?! Wei Xiao didnt care about what was going on in the scrolling comments at all. He looked at Lu Feng, and his eyes were like Soybeans when it saw a bone. Wei Xiao: One more match, we just warmed up! Lu Feng was unmoved, What time is it? The live broadcast started at 8:30. Wei Xiao played many solo matches, and it was now almost 12:00. Wei Xiao spoke the time out loud, then added, Come, come, the night is still long! Bai Cai: The captain was wise and had shut down the broadcast at the right time. Otherwise, this mouth of Wei Xiaos would cause the live broadcast to be banned at any minute! Lu Feng got up and said, Enough, if youre basically done here, get some early rest. Wei Xiao followed him, Captain! He was unreconciled. Lu Feng looked at him, Did you win the championship? Wei Xiao: Rest early. Lu Feng dropped this sentence and left the training room. Wei Xiao wilted and toppled back into the chair. It was like his spirit and consciousness had been swept away. Little Ning was young and simple. He leaned in to ask Wei Xiao, Brother Wei, what did the captain mean by his words? Was there any connection between winning the championship and playing a game together? He was a little nervous! Wei Xiao spoke weakly, The captain promised me Ning Zhehan: Hm? If we win the world championships, hell be mine for as long as I want. This carrot was big and fragrant, but it was still a little far away! The room full of people who hadnt yet had time to escape, F*ck! Little Nings curiosity died instantly. He was shocked, Wha-what?! Wei Xiao sat up and flipped the calendar, When does the regular season start? Why hasnt it started yet? Its three hours for each regular season game, and I remember were in the double cycle division. Didnt FTW win 16 consecutive games three years ago? Lets work hard this time and do 16 consecutive wins for the regular season. One win is three hours, 16 regular season games adds up to 48 hours and then the playoffs Wei Xiaoxiao was really worthy of someone who had gotten a score of 134 in the college entrance examinations. He could calculate quickly and obtain an answer in moments, If we win all the domestic games, I can solo with the captain for 178 hours! Everyone in FTW: Wake up, kid! What did you mean, win all the domestic games! Did you start dreaming even before falling asleep?! Bai Cai was afraid of this old dog, Youre saying that if you win the world championship, the captain will accompany you to solo for as long as you want? Wei Xiao nodded, Yep. Bai Cais heart was shattered: Cant you f*cking make your words clearer?! Xiang Liu knew the truth; hed been one of the ones whod witnessed the signing of the contract and experienced how lethal Wei Xiao could be. He was anxious to leave, Its not early anymore, and you guys shouldnt train until too late. Formal training will start in a few days. Chen Feng didnt want to stay here at all either. Im off to sleep. Tang Chen hurriedly followed suit, Me too! Yue Wenle picked up his chips and asked Ning Zhehan, Doubles? Little Ning was still in a daze, Oh, oh, sure! The two of them went to the doubles training room where it was quiet and comfortable, and their ears wouldnt get scalded! Only Bai Cai and Wei Xiao were left in the large training room. Wei Xiaos heart was itchy, Old Bai, say, if I go upstairs to find the captain now, he Bai Cai was full of hate; he hated his own soft heart. He should run, and he shouldnt pay attention to this beast, Have you won the regular season yet? The playoffs? What about the championship? Wei Xiao: Bai Cai could really be considered to have caught his weak spot, You dont even have a fart of a result, how can you go find the captain for solo games? Ah Wei Xiao was stabbed straight through the heart and collapsed back in his chair. As Wei Xiao said, the night was still long. They werent like Close, and sleeping so early was impossible. Bai Cai: Come play doubles? Wei Xiaos tone was bored and uninterested, Fine His tone of having to settle for second best wasnt concealed at all! The two of them played for two hours, then Wei Xiao said, Old Bai, its not that I dont want to accompany you to go up in the rankings, in fact Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: After eating a luxurious meal, I really cant swallow your clear cabbage soup anymore. Bai Cai was so angry that he wanted to smash the keyboard. Considering that his keyboard was a limited edition, he could only smash the table, Wei Xiao!!! Wei Xiao yawned. Bai Cai didnt want to pay attention to this bastard anymore, Get out of here aaahhhh!!! Wei Xiao bailed and slept soundly with Soybean in his arms. It was strange. This was his first time in FTW, and it was his first time sleeping in this strange bed. He shouldnt be used to it, but he fell asleep as soon as he hit the bed. Wei Xiao just felt that everything was just right. The bedroom was just right, the bed was just right, and even the air was just right. He liked FTW. He liked everything here. He didnt dream that night, but the youths mouth was stretched into a smile. The next day, there was no doubt that the Gossip Emperors private message inbox was full to bursting. Bai Cai woke up two hours earlier than usual. He held his cell phone in bed and only finished reading through them all at noon. Wei Xiaos premiere broadcast detonated the entire Glory circle, and it also then set the circle on fire. These girls had come up with endless CPs to gnaw on over the past two years. Now that Wei Xiao had fallen out of the sky, it was simply a big pot that everyone could stew up crazy news in. Of course. Out of all the contributions, Close x Quiet was the one with the highest frequency, highest quality, and highest standards. As the Lord Gong of the Glory circle, Close had enough CP fans to circle the world three and a half times over. Quiet had slaughtered out such a bloody path in his one live broadcast. It was really a gift! Bai Cai was stressed as he read, thinking about whether or not he should delete the account. He was a principled Gossip Emperor who only engaged in pushing fake CPs. If there really was something there, he wouldnt touch it even if he was going to die. A straight mans job was to coax girls and give them some happiness. He wouldnt mess with real feelings, because it would be difficult to deal with if something happened. However Bai Cai had been mixing it up in these circles for so long, yet hed never once encountered true feelings. Close x Quiet Based on Bai Cais understanding of Wei Xiao, with this beast, there was an 80, 90 percent chance that nothing was there. There was a kind of creature that was neither heterosexual or homosexual. It was the type that hadnt yet been enlightened! This kids mind probably didnt even have the neuron connections for falling in loveCC He looked like a 19 year old adult, but his thoughts might be like that of a five or six year old when it came to loveCC What was love? Was it as fun as soloing?! Wei Xiaos brain was full of this sentence. Quiet was safe, but what about the captain? Bai Cai couldnt be sure. Hed been in the team for a long time, and the more he learned about Lu Feng, the harder it was to say. Although they all said that nobody in e-sports had time to fall in love, Lu Fengs qualifications made it so that people fell all over themselves in offering themselves up if he wanted to find a partner, and there wasnt anything he couldnt have. However, Lu Feng was 21, and he didnt even have anyone he was ambiguous with. Oh the Gossip Emperor Weibos CPs didnt count. If Closes sexual preference was for men, there were many excellent men around him, but there werent any that he looked at more often than others. There was only Wei Xiao. Two years ago, hed indulged him. Two years later, he spoiled him. It could be predicted that the Little Lunatic Wei would only become more crazy after joining FTW. This guy could already go crazy enough to fly up to the skies without anyones care. Under someones protection, wouldnt he pierce the sky?! However, it was difficult to make the claim that there was something between Old Wei and the captain, because it also didnt seem to be the case Wei Xiao was very excellent and was very much worth being appreciated. A talented player like him, no matter whether it was from the captains perspective, or the teams perspective, or even as a senior, there were reasons enough to indulge him. Ah Bai Cai shook his head and thought that hed probably been led astray by Wei Xiao. Just based on those fierce bandit-like words of his, even good and proper brotherly feelings would change flavor! Whats more, Old Bai was immersed in this culture all year long. His eyes hadnt been able to see clearly for a long time, and it was possible that his eyes had already turned rotten a long time ago! So, should he send out this story segment or not? If he didnt send it, it would be like beating the grass and driving the snake away. If he sent it The Gossip Emperors heart felt a little guilty. Old Bai! There was a knock on the door. Bai Cai opened the door and saw Wei Xiao there drinking juice, What are you howling for so early in the morning! It seemed that Wei Xiao had also woken up early. He urged Bai Cai, Hurry and eat. Lunch is really abundant! Theres fresh juice, hey, the watermelon is really tasty, how can there be such a tasty fruit in this world. Bai Cai followed him out the door, You got up so early? Although it was already noon, based on Wei Xiaos biological clock, he shouldnt be seen at all until 2 in the afternoon. Wei Xiao sighed, I was thinking that the early bird would catch solo games to play, but the captain only has that damned dog in his eyes! Lu Fengs biological clock was different from theirs. He got up at 7:30 and went for a run in the morning, and his schedule wouldnt change even if he was struck by lightning. Wei Xiao wanted to give it another shot while nobody was around, yet as a result, Lu Feng only noticed Soybean and didnt pay him any heed at all! Hed spent the whole morning making eyes at the captain and hinting like mad, but he hadnt gotten any response! Soybean was really in the way! Bai Cai rolled his eyes at him, Youre really damned persistent. Wei Xiao: Everything comes to him who waits. What if the captain changes his mind due to my persistence? There was still such a long time before the competition began. He was anxious! sponsored release~ thanks for the coffees! 5 more to go~ Chapter 33.2: Are there a lot of them praising me and Close? Is there a CP name? Bai Cais mind was still on other things, and he simply asked one of the people involved, Your live broadcast exploded yesterday. Wei Xiao sipped at his watermelon juice and wasnt surprised at all, Of course. Bai Cai glanced at him sidelong, My private messages have exploded too. Wei Xiao understood what he meant. His eyes brightened, and he asked, How is it? Are there a lot of them praising me and Close? Is there a CP name? Tell me, tell me about it! Bai Cai: He regretted it. How could he have thought of asking one of the people involved? Bai Cai gave him his cellphone and let him take a look for himself. Wei Xiao skimmed through and saw quite a few CP names, What kind of damned name is Want it CP? After that, Wei Xiao saw the short video clip underneath it, taken from the last segment of his live broadcast. What hed said was subtitledCCAgain, Captain, I (still) want more! Wei Xiao thought about it and blinked, Solo? Bai Cai: The live broadcast was shut down at a key time and cut it off. Wei Xiao approved, The captain is really smart, the topic is hotter this way! Bai Cai: Alright, as long as youve thought it through! Wei Xiao continued to pick CP names, Eight nine CP? Bai Cai explained it to him, Your eight light arcs, and the captains nine light arcs. Wei Xiao got it, Oh, oh, oh, this ones no good. Its too limiting. Im sure that Ill be able to do nine in the future! Bai Cai: Alright, alright, whatever you say is right. Wei Xiao: Double shadow CP? Bai Cai: Your two shadow thieves. Wei Xiao rejected it, Doesnt sound good. Bai Cai rolled his eyes. Wei Xiao: Demon King CP? Bai Cai: Yes, it refers to our FTWs great demon king and little demon king. Honestly, Brother Cai thought that this CP name was pretty good. Ah, wait, hed been corrupted by the Little Lunatic Wei for even thinking about it! Wei Xiao was still unsatisfied, Why am I the little demon king? Im also very big! Bai Cai: To hell with your big! Would you die if you spoke in human words?! After reading through all the CP names, Wei Xiao came to a conclusion, No rush. Ill give them some more material for inspiration! Bai Cai stumbled and almost fell down the stairs, Ah? Wei Xiao: Believe me, inspiration all comes from stimulation. Bai Cai wanted to die. Sisters, wake up, the candy you guys are gnawing on is poisonous! After this farce with Wei Xiao, Bai Cai had also thought it through. Who the hell cared? Based on this little fool, who knew when he would figure things out. When he really became enlightened, these little short segments would smash him in the face. Theyd see if he cried then. F*ck, thinking about it that way felt great. Bai Cai decided to send the short segment anyway. If nothing else, it could create confusion by passing off the spurious as genuine! Fear was the reason for staying deep in the closet. He might as well go the opposite way, so that when the two of them really came out of the closet, people would be so used to it they wouldnt be surprised at all! Not only had yesterdays live broadcast caused a huge sensation throughout the network, each major team had also set aside time in the afternoon today in order to do a replay and analysis. In particular, the players who participated in the solo matches were captured by their coaches and forced to review for over three hours. In the singles competition arena where Close took all the glory on his own, most of the clubs didnt have much interest in solo games, and many teams had even abandoned the program and devoted more time to the double and team games instead. 3U was one of them. Last season, Asleep and Cong Yi had won third place in the world competition, making 3U famous. This years advertising revenue had more than tripled. Star players really had this kind of commercial value, and it meant that they could be coaxed and stolen away. It was unknown how many clubs were full of regret for missing a talent like Wei Xiao. This Quiet was more than just a star player. He was a business wizard! The profit hed made in one day was enough to cover the cost of half a year of his contract! Not only were the major domestic clubs replaying the games, even the overseas competition zones were concerned. North America. L&P Base. Old G collapsed back into his chair and listened to his captain speak in Korean with his former teammate. Marshal was really amazing. He was proficient in eight languages and could speak all of them smoothly. They had just finished a training match with Pro and had won two out of the three games. Dont judge based on how L&P had lost one match; Old G still felt that Pro hadnt played out their full strength. Kim Sung-hyun was obviously using them to train up his team. In the last game, it was difficult to say who would win or lose if Pro had run-in more. After Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun agreed on a time for a doubles training match, Yuan Ze spoke up, FTW signed a very interesting kid. Kim Sung-hyun directly used Chinese to ask, Ning Zhehan? Yuan Ze: No, its another one. Kim Sung-hyun thought about it, Old Tang is retiring. Are they replacing him with another top-laner? Yuan Ze laughed, In short, youll see him soon. Kim Sung-hyun was very interested, Whats his name? Ill look him up. Yuan Ze was straightforward, Wait, Ill send you a video. He had a recording of Wei Xiaos live broadcast, which he sent directly to Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyun, two hours later, Haha. Yuan Zes heart thumped. Kim Sung-hyun: The second to last match was you and Close, right? Yuan Ze stared at Gary, and Old G was confused, Whats up? He shouldnt have had any expectations of this guy. Hed told him to cut the video, yet hed left it like this? Kim Sung-hyun was very impolite about it, Three years ago, someone said that if they soloed with Little Lu Feng again, they would live broadcast eating shit. Yuan Ze: F*ck! Kim Sung-hyun asked Gary very distinctly, GG, will your L&P be attending the special training in a few days? Gary was half a Kim Sung-hyun fan, and only they heard him calling out, Yes! Kim Sung-hyun then spoke to Yuan Ze, Brother, Ill see you at special training. Waiting for you to eat shit. Yuan Ze: Get lost! After cutting the call, Kim Sung-hyun stared at the two shadow thieves on the screen. This was the last match in the live-broadcast, Close vs Quiet. He smiled briefly, and the tear mole at the corner of his eye flashed under the light of the effects from the nine light arcs on the screen, Interesting. The number one ADC of the Temple of Glory loved the jungler position the most. It wasnt that he liked to jungle, but rather that he liked to bully junglers. In the balance mechanism of the game, thieves had a natural advantage over marksmen, but Kim Sung-hyuns marksman was especially strong against thieves. FTW Base. Chen Feng hesitated, then said, The team hasnt been broken in at all, is it okay to attend special training like this? Tang Chen was very casual, Whats there to be afraid of? Special training was originally just like training matches. Chen Feng glanced at him coldly, Ha. If theyre hammered into seclusion, wont they just be coming back and waiting to die when the domestic competition starts? Tang Chen scratched the back of his head, Its not so bad Chen Feng tossed the documents down in front of him, Look at the list this year! Glorys winter training was a new project that had come into being over the recent years. It was organized by the competition committee, and the seeded teams from the 16 competition zones were invited to come together to train for 15 days. It was a very suitable warm-up activity before the competition really began. This was a great training opportunity, especially for competition zones that were in decline, or for teams that werent very powerful. The official statement was that all starter teams in the 16 competition zones could sign up. Nearly 100 teams signed up in the first year, all wanting to improve. As a result, the training situation was very terrible; some immature teams were directly tortured to the point where their mentality and passion collapsed. After returning home, they toppled during the main competition, achieving poor results and coming to a lonely, dismal end. The next year, everyone was more rational. Teams who had only just absorbed many new players wouldnt sign up. After all, the attitude of new players wasnt stable, and it was better to keep them in good condition than have them be hammered into seclusion by the top players of the professional circle. By now, winter training had become a term used by the powerful teams. They would arrange for training competitions anyway, and it was better to work together in an efficient manner than arrange things in the dark. FTW hadnt participated last year. This year Lu Feng said, Were going. Chen Feng had prepared himself mentally a long time ago, but he was still worried, Although the Little Lunatic Wei wont be cowed, Little Ning and Old Yue Yue Wenle had already gone through a season, but he still wasnt skilled enough to hold up in front of a bunch of old foxes. And for this competition, even Kim Sung-hyun would be participating Although they were both professional players, and they were both ADCs, Chen Feng was very certainCC In front of Kim Sung-hyun, Yue Wenles arrows would be like bamboo sticks, completely harmless. Lu Feng: We cant hide. Chen Feng advised him, For better or worse, you should give them some time They could stay at home and train honestly. After the domestic competitions, the team would be pretty well broken-in. After that, they could face those beasts. At least they wouldnt be left kneeling so miserably. Lu Feng glanced at Chen Feng, If they survive the winter special training, will they have problems in the domestic competition? Chen Feng: ! Lu Feng tapped the board, Sign up. Out of the 18 teams who had applied for Glorys winter special training, each of the teams had either won the championship or runner-up positions in their competition zones, and all of them were big, established teams. There was even less need to mention the top four teams in the world last year, all of which were on the special training team list. When Wei Xiao heard about the special training, his eyes brightened, This is that oneCCthe one where players from all over the world come together to do 15 days of winter special training day and night? Everyone in FTW: These fellows all used to get flustered when they saw the special training list. Now To hell with getting anxious! The ones who should be anxious were the foreign teams who were going to participate in the special training. They probably didnt know what a terrible little beast would be attending the training this year! Chapter 34.1: Youve only cried once. Its not enough Wei Xiao was very interested. Hed long felt that the off-season period was too long, and really couldnt wait to play. Now that he was hearing about this, how could he not be excited? Brother Chen, is it that one? Chen Feng: It really wasnt that one, but it also was the very same one. Tang Chen laughed loudly, Its really 15 days of hard work, in principle. Wei Xiao looked at Tang Chen, God Tang, have you participated in it before? How was it? Was it exciting! Tang Chen was a little stunned when he asked this. FTW hadnt participated last year, but they had gone two years ago. That year, FTW was hammered very miserably. Except for Close, everyones mentality collapsed. After returning home, they played badly and failed to even obtain the domestic championship. Chen Feng took over the conversation and poured figurative cold water over Wei Xiaos head, The last time FTW participated, we lost six straight games after returning to China. As soon as these words came out, the meeting room became much quieter. Bai Cai lowered his eyes and stared at the blank desktop in front of him. It wasnt clear what he was thinking. Ning Zhehans back straightened up involuntarily. Yue Wenle clenched his hands into fists beneath the table. Chen Feng didnt mean to frighten them, but if they really didnt do enough mental preparation in advance, they would collapse even more after going. The cruelty of the competition was the most obvious only when they were able to see the insurmountable gap between different players. This wasnt something that could be made up with by hard work, struggle, or persistence. Because others had more talent, and might even be more hard working, more persistent, and have fought for even longer. In front of this chasm as wide as the heavens, what could they use to fight against others with? Chen Feng pointed at the training list and said, Two years ago, FTW participated in winter training. Many teams came to arrange for training matches, since after all, it was the Team of Gods, and those whod left FTW were so famous that there were many people who were curious. Wei Xiao heard about how it was two years ago and was shaken for a moment. Chen Feng continued, Do you guys think that its a good thing to have people invite you to training matches? He sneered, The premise is that you have the ability to cope with them. The FTW at the time, other than Close and Tang Chen had all been transferred in from the reserve team. These new players couldnt even keep up with Tang Chen, let alone Close. However, FTW had a big reputation. Close had just won the individual championship, and it was like a nail in the eyes of the global professional players. Everyone invited FTW for training matches. Firstly, it was because they valued this old, powerful team, and secondly, because they appreciated this young new captain. However 5v5 matches werent the same as a 1v1 match. All the teams who made appointments with FTW were disappointed. The team that was once the champion team, was already dispersed like loose grains of sand, with no sense of tacit understanding and cooperation. Even if Close was stronger, so what? As long as they targeted Close to death, the team would be vulnerable. There were over a dozen training matches, and FTW lost until they were a mess. Chen Feng tried hard to give psychological support to these newcomers, trying to cheer them up and find out their faults under this strong pressure so that they could grow quickly. But then, the mid-lane player said to him, Theres no use! We cant win against them! The difference is too big! The thing to be the most afraid of in a game wasnt making mistakes. It wasnt the gap in strength, nor was it a lineup that suppressed theirs; it was players whod given up. Given up the game, and given up on themselves. How could they win like that! Over the years, many teams had become completely defeated by winter training. Two years ago, FTW was one of them. Now that theyd signed up, Chen Feng didnt plan to hide anything. He used a calm tone to describe FTWs experience from two years ago. At the end, Close made continuous individual game appointments with people. It was fifteen days of training. In the first week, there were always people wanting to find FTW for training matches, but they kept losing, and lost to the point where no team was willing to play training matches with them. But they were already there. What would it look like if they left halfway? The fans back home could flame FTW until they disbanded. They couldnt leave, and could only force themselves to go on. The proper competition was about to start soon. They couldnt just let the last week of training be wasted just like this, right? At the time, many people wanted to make individual match appointments with Close. At first, Close hadnt wanted to waste any time on it, and refused everyone. But now, there was nobody fighting the 5v5 matches with them. What to do? Trade solo matches for 5v5 training matches. Chen Feng exhaled softly, Ten solo matches for one 5v5. When Wei Xiao heard this, he was so distressed he almost exploded, F*ck! One solo game lasted half an hour. Ten matches was five hours. Five hours for one 5v5 training match, this was enough to make Close tired to death! Chen Feng closed his eyes, They also didnt take the training matches that were obtained in this way seriously. They referred to Closes teammates at the time. They didnt care about where the training matches had come from. They only felt that they were about to collapse, and didnt want to play. They only wanted to escape. The hard-earned training opportunities that Close had obtained for them was nothing but a burden, nothing but pressure and nightmares to them. There was silence in the meeting room. Chen Feng looked around, Although youve already signed up, theres still a chance to change your mind. You can tell me if you dont want to go. Wei Xiao immediately spoke up, Go! We have to go! We have to get even! Damn it, a group of dogs bullied Close. If he didnt blow them up, he, Wei Xiao, would write his name backwards! Chen Feng wasnt surprised at his reaction at all. He was concerned about the others. The corners of Bai Cais mouth curved slightly. The heated blood that had boiled when he followed Wei Xiao two years ago stirred, Ill do as the Captain says. His words held two meanings. The captain of FTW was Lu Feng, but his former captain was Wei Xiao. Both of them were going, and he would follow them. Ning Zhehan clenched his fist, his cheeks a little flushed and his voice trembling slightly, but the words he spoke were very resolute, Im going! Im not scared of losing! I definitely wont hold everyone back! Chen Feng nodded at him, then looked at Yue Wenle. Yue Wenle glanced at Wei Xiao, then spoke slowly, Whats so scary about losing? A year and a half ago, I was bullied into tears by One Lamp Grandmaster for three days and three nights, yet I didnt give up playing professionally. Chen Feng was shocked for a moment when he heard this. Ning Zhehans eyes brightened and he added, Yes! Ive also cried before, but I feel happy after crying, and just want to become stronger quickly! Yue Wenle evaluated him, Youve only cried once. Its not enough. Ning Zhehan: Ah, Im really not experienced enough. I have to learn from Brother Le! Yue Wenle paused for a moment and glanced at him, How come I feel like youre ridiculing me? Ning Zhehan blinked his big eyes at him, Did I? Yue Wenle pressed further, What are you learning from me? Learning to cry like me? Learning to cry for three days and three nights? Ning Zhehan: Cough Wei Xiao hurriedly tried to smooth things out, Little Ning, you cant learn these things, but I can help you. Isnt it just crying? Im the best at making people cry! Tang Chen burst out laughing. Chen Feng: He always had the feeling that this preventative injection was given in vain. As expected, once Little Lunatic Wei joined, the entire teams style has turned strange! Coach Chen knocked on the table, If you have the time to compare who can cry better than others, why dont you go train at hitting soldiers for three hours! If the most boring part of the daily training course had to be named, it would definitely be hitting soldiers. It was done little by little, boring and dull. Everyone was afraid of this task, Little Lunatic Wei included. Winter training was so settled. Everyone maintained a distance from Coach Chen out of fear that the training time for hitting soldiers would suddenly increase from three hours to six. Wei Xiao followed behind Lu Feng, stepping wherever he went. Lu Feng turned around to look at him, What? Wei Xiao hesitated, and put on an affected, bashful appearance. Lu Feng paused for a moment, then hardened his heart and said, The plane leaves in the morning tomorrow. You must go to bed early tonight. The location for the winter training camp was on an island in Southeast Asia. It would take about five hours to fly there from S City. Wei Xiao was still wavering. Lu Fengs hardened heart softened again, Two hours. Wei Xiao was stunned, Ah? Lu Feng: Time will be very tight once we arrive at the training venue, so Ill accompany you to solo for two hours tonight. F*ck! Wei Xiao was stunned by this unexpected joy, Your words better count! Lu Feng: Have I ever lied to you? Wei Xiao was so delighted he could die, No, not once! Lu Fengs mouth raised slightly, Go play doubles with Bai Cai first. Ill call you after Im finished here. Wei Xiao didnt leave. Lu Feng: What else? Other than solo, what other reason would this kid come find him for? Wei Xiao explained, I wasnt aiming for solo with you. Of course, I want it, but thats not the point. But since you promised to give me two hours, dont regret it. Yes. Lu Feng was really at a loss regarding that mouth of his. He laughed and said, I said Id give it to you, so I definitely will. Fortunately, there was no third person here. Otherwise, after listening to this dialogue, their brains would once again end up in the gutter! Wei Xiao took a deep breath and finally said what hed wanted to say, Im sorry! Lu Feng was caught by surprise. Wei Xiao gave him a deep bow that was full of guilt and said, Two years ago, Im sorry! Two years ago, when FTW invited Wei Xiao, it had been at about the same time. If hed signed up to join the team, he wouldve gone to the winter training camp with Close, and he wouldnt have let Close bear so much alone. Two years ago, when Close needed his teammates most, he fled. Wei Xiao felt bad whenever he thought about it. Lu Feng looked at the young man in front of him and felt a melting warmth in his chest. Its not your fault. What Wei Xiao experienced two years ago doomed him to leave the professional arena. His close relative had died, and he definitely couldnt have been in the mood to play. Let alone, the Lu Feng at the time Lu Feng touched the young mans soft and warm black hair. Two years ago, I didnt deserve you. pst C unedited because xiins organisational skills went down the drain somewhere Chapter 34.2: If you put those words just now on Weibo, the two of us will be a confirmed CP Wei Xiao lifted his head, looking into Lu Fengs deep, black eyes. Fans always liked to say that Closes eyes were very cold. It was like a kind of dark jade that had been frozen for thousands of years and held no trace of emotion. However, Wei Xiao felt that this was the most human pair of eyes hed ever seen. It was like the sea shrouded in sunshine, warming him all the way to the heart. Wei Xiao: Captain Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: If you put those words just now on Weibo, the two of us will be a confirmed CP. Lu Feng: It didnt matter how good the atmosphere was, and it didnt matter how pink those soap bubbles were. With Wei Xiaos mouth, they all shattered with a touch! Lu Fengs face was cold, One hour. How could Wei Xiao not understand what he meant? He panicked, You said two hours, you said you never lie, Captain, how could you do this! Lu Feng: Half an hour. Wei Xiao begged for mercy, Im wrong, Im wrong. Were not forming a CP, we wont form a CP in this lifetime! Lu Feng stopped walking and turned to look at him, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiaoxiao acted small and subservient, Im listening. Lu Feng was expressionless, Go to bed early. Wei Xiao: ??? What do you mean, do you mean that I dont even get half an hour?! F*ck! Wei Xiao was anxious, No, no, no, Captain, I was wrong. Lu Feng looked at him, What did you do wrong? Wei Xiaos expression was muddled, what had he done wrong? He also wanted to know what hed done wrong! As a man, survival was an instinct. Wei Xiao tried tentatively, Um forming a CP? Lu Feng sneered. Wei Xiao was anxious enough to die, How about you decide? Lu Feng: What am I deciding? Wei Xiao: Just about the forming of a CP? Lu Feng went upstairs, closing the door behind him Wei Xiao smashed his nose right up against it! Bai Cai came up with a glass of watermelon juice and saw Wei Xiao standing there, Whats the matter? He had the pathetic look of having been shut outside by his boyfriend. Wei Xiao snatched away his watermelon juice and spoke in frustration, The captains words cant be relied on. Sure enough, this was related to his boyfriend. Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Give me back my juice. Laozi just made it! Wei Xiao took a big, fierce sip, You dont even like watermelon. Bai Cai: The whole base is full of watermelon. Do I have a choice? Wei Xiao got right to the point, Theres also apples and oranges. You made the juice for me. Bai Cai: Damn it! This little beast didnt deserve to be treated well at all! The two of them entered the training room, and Bai Cai asked him, So, what did you do this time to provoke the captain? Wei Xiao sighed, I dont know. The captains heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea, I cant see through to it. Bai Cai was a little worried about winter training, and he asked, Is it related to the intensive training? Wei Xiao nodded. Bai Cai frowned, What about it? The training that Chen Feng had talked about two years ago was really too cruel. Bai Cai had been with the captain for nearly two years, and he also felt heartache when he heard it. Wei Xioao had always been open and honest to his good brother. He finished explaining, then said, Tell me, tell me what you think. Isnt what the captain said very misleading? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao still had words to say, Say, what was wrong with what I said? If these words went on Weibo, wouldnt the whole world think that were in a relationship?! Brother Cai was in very urgent need of that expression pack. Yes, the one that said, Regret, this person is really regretful! He shouldnt have asked, what the hell did he ask for! Wei Xiao was really aggrieved to death, It wasnt okay for me to talk about forming a CP, yet talking about not forming a CP also didnt work. Such a big two hours of solo flew away just like that. They just flew away from right in front of my eyes just like that! Bai Cai drank a mouthful of cold water to suppress his shock, Old Wei. Wei Xiao: Hm? Bai Cai: Listen to your brothers advice. Dont go and provoke the captain tonight. Wei Xiao was unreconciled, But he promised me. Bai Cai patted him on the shoulder and said somberly, Listen to me. Your brother wouldnt harm you. If you f*cking went up and kicked up a fuss again, the captain might really do you in a fit of rage! Damn it! It was too self-abusive. A one-sided love wasnt terrible, and a secret love wasnt anything terrible either. What was terrible was when one liked a little beast who was heartless, clueless, and blind enough to reach the skies! Bai Cai still wanted to see FTW win the championship! It wouldnt be a big deal if this little beast died in bed, but it would be catastrophic if their team was left short of a person and ended up as a team of four! In order not to have Wei Xiao go upstairs and send himself to his own death, Bai Cai dragged Little Ning and Old Yue to take turns accompanying him. The rules they set were like this: they queued in threes for ranked games, then accompanied Wei Xiao for one solo match, all to ensure that Wei Xiao didnt stop for a single moment and had no energy to go find the Captain. The training room was energetic and heated. At ten oclock, Lu Feng went back downstairs. Wei Xiao had long forgotten what had taken place earlier in the evening. Now that he saw Lu Feng coming, his eyes were glued to him again, and he wouldnt shift them away even when pulled at. Lu Feng didnt look at him and went to start up the projector, This years training is different from previous years. Bai Cai let out a breath of relief. Fortunately, Lu Feng was here about serious matters and hadnt come down to carry the little beast upstairs. Chen Feng also came inside and let him explain the details to everyone. This years winter training was really different from previous years. As Chen Feng had said before, winter training from the past two years had become an exclusive term for the powerful teams. Ordinary teams didnt participate in it at all. Originally, the competition committee had set up the training session in order to balance out the levels in each competition zone before the start of the official competition so that the competition would be more fun to watch, rather than one team dominating all the matches. Unfortunately, the gap between the strong teams and the weak teams was too large, and 15 days wasnt very long. Even if all the teams were all pulled into the same place, the strong teams only focused on training against other strong teams. Later, the competition committee imposed a daily draw, but this made the situation even worse. The weak teams who were drawn by the strong teams ended up being abused for over 10 games, and their mentality collapsed. They simply didnt attend the training the next year. Theyd changed the rules back and forth, but were never able to find a suitable solution. This year, the competition committee had come up with a new big idea. Only 18 teams signed up for winter training this year, but the competition committee bullied and lured another 18 teams to also join. The competition committee set up a special winter training server that could be accessed by any player who attended the training. After they logged in, they wouldnt be limited to only teaming up with their teammates. Instead, they could match freely like in ranked games and try to climb up the ladder. This sounded like a little bit of a joke. They were all there to break in their teams. What was the point in free matching? However, in fact, this helped the weaker teams. Running in a team was important, of course, but the gap between teams was too big, and strong teams found it uninteresting to play against weaker teams while weak teams had nothing to fight with. However, this ignored each players individual ability. Weak teams couldnt train their teams during winter training, so it was more useful for them to improve the personal strength of their players. Think about it, being the great demon kings opponent was a terrible thing, but what would it be like to be his teammate? Not everyone had had the chance to experience it before. Once theyd experienced it, when they met again on the competition arena, wouldnt the pressure they felt be much smaller? This was also a good thing for the players psychological states. Whats more, this free matching was just the start. Winter training was still more focused on team training. Free matching would keep track of each players points. The player with the highest points in the ranking that day could freely select a team for a training match the next day, and the selected team could not refuse. This was another way in which to help the weaker teams who had added in new players with much difficulty, but found it difficult to find training matches to hone their team with. Other than the free matching, teams could still freely arrange training matches between themselves, so this change made no difference to the strong teams. Free matching was mainly a way to give the weak teams who wanted to fight hard a chance, and it was this advantage that the competition committee had used in order to bribe so many teams into participating. 36 teams. In fact, it was quite a lot. The competition committee solved that, too. Based on a ladder draw, they split the teams into two groups. For example, in Group A, the leader was the 2020 championship runner-up L&P, and the third place Pro. The leader of Group B were the champions Y1 and fourth place EVE. The training location for Group A was an island in Southeast Asia. The training location for Group B was a famous holiday island in North America. The two groups would train separately. Chinas competition zone had had it quite tough this time. All four teams who were attending had registered independently and hadnt been specifically invited. FTW and 3U were placed in Group A. RR and TPT were in Group B. Whether Group A was more ferocious, or Group B was more inhumane, would have to be determined in the domestic competition half a month later! After listening to all this, Wei Xiao only felt that winter training was going to be too exciting! He didnt even feel that bad about the two hours of solo that had flown away anymore. Chen Feng added, The hotel rooms arranged by the competition committee are all double rooms. Well organize the accommodation arrangements in advance. Wei Xiaoxiao stuck his hand up in the air! Chen Feng: Speak. Wei Xiao asked, Can we choose our own roommates? Chen Feng: Yes. Bai Cai secretly thought that this was going to be bad. Sure enough Wei Xiao had already spoken out loud, Can I apply to share a room with the captain! Brother Cai: F*ck! xiin: Lu Feng wants to express WX can trade those 2 hours of solo for another kind of solo~ if only he understood what that meant. (poor blue balls, theyve still got a while to wait) Chapter 35.1: Captain, if I sleepwalk into your bed, would you mind? Bai Cai tried to salvage the situation, Theres no equipment in the hotel rooms, right! Xiang Liu answered, There will definitely be computers, but well bring our own peripherals. Bai Cai: Brother Liu, wake up, dont add oil and vinegar! Bai Cai continued to work hard, Then, dont let Old Wei and the captain share a room. Wont he stick to the captain until he cant even leave the room? After saying so, Brother Cai suspected that he was suggesting dirty things, but he really didnt want to engage in such a thing at all! Wei Xiao was dissatisfied, Old Bai, youre slandering me. Bai Cais heart was hurting for the sake of the championship, Do you dare say that youre not suggesting it for the sake of soloing with the captain? Wei Xiao was reserved, Its human nature for those who have a favorable position to want more, but I know whats important and wont tire the captain out too much! Like hell would Bai Cai believe him. He raised his hand in protest, Coach, Wei Xiao is plotting and misbehaving. He definitely cannot be allowed to stay in the same room as the captain! Wei Xiao rose up in revolt, Old Bai, youre messing up my business! F*ck your damned business! Bai Cai was clearly trying to defend the little beasts chastity, but the situation now seemed to be reversed! For better or worse, Xiang Liu finally clued in and hurriedly said, About that This time There were nine people going. It was an odd number, so the boss had a single room. He hadnt finished his words when Lu Feng spoke up, Ill share a room with Wei Xiao. Bai Cai: ! Wei Xiaos smile bloomed on his face, and he showed off to Bai Cai, Did you hear that? The captain wants to stay with me! Bai Cai died. He was completely, thoroughly dead. Chen Feng hesitated for a while, then gave up thinking about it. Forget it, Lu Feng knew what he was doing, so he didnt have to worry about it. Being able to keep an eye on Little Lunatic Wei would be good too, ensuring that he wouldnt go out and trouble others. Coach Chen didnt have any doubts about this. If they didnt keep an eye on Wei Xiao, this kid would definitely mess around with all 18 teams and the 90+ contestants there until they exploded! There was nothing else to go over after that except to finish up the room allocations. Little Ning would share a room with Old Yue, and Chen Feng would share with Tang Chen. Xiang Liu would share a room with the assistant, and as for Bai Cai Hed worked hard all night and received a benefit as big as the heavens: Our God Bai, our God of Wealth, could enjoy a single room! Brother Cais laughter was full of happiness! Wei Xiao wasnt clear about how the rooms were allocated, because after his own room was determined, Lu Feng looked at him, Its ten oclock. These words werent understood by others, but Wei Xiao understood instantly! Previously, Lu Feng had promised to solo with him for two hours. According to Lu Fengs schedule, it would be from ten oclock until midnight. The fat duck that had flown away had come back again. Wei Xiao really didnt care about the rooms and what not anymore. Quick! Wei Xiao got up and followed Lu Feng to the doubles training room. The timing was perfect. Once midnight arrived, Lu Feng exited the game. Wei Xiao felt like it hadnt been enough, Its only twelve oclock Lu Feng: Go to bed early. Wei Xiao thought about how the future was still long and endured it. Lu Feng got up and asked him, Why do you want to room with me? Wei Xiao replied immediately, Its not for the sake of soloing! These words of his, probably nobody in the whole FTW base would believe him. Wei Xiao explained, I really wasnt thinking about pestering you for solo matches. Itll be very busy when we go to the training camp, and we wont even be able to finish all the training matches. How could I pester you? Especially when he thought about how Close had used solo games to trade for training matches two years ago, Wei Xiao just wanted to kill those guys. How could he be like them and mess with the captain? Lu Feng looked at him, Then why? Wei Xiao stumbled and said, Just I just want to room with you, cant I? He looked like he was really embarrassed to say it, the act was practically perfect. Lu Feng exposed him, Because of your sleepwalking? Wei Xiao: Now that Lu Feng had guessed it, he didnt try to hide it anymore. Yes! You still remember two years ago, right? I dont even know how I opened the door myself, and I dont know how I got into your room or how I ended up holding onto you and sleeping! Wei Xiao was really frustrated when he thought about it. Hed always had sleepwalking problems, and so he rarely slept in a room with others. Normally, he would also keep the bedroom door closed at home, out of fear that he would walk his way out and not be able to find his way back. However, for so many years, hed never opened any doors while sleepwalking. He didnt know how hed done so two years ago. Since it had happened once, Wei Xiao was afraid that it would happen a second time, which was why he wanted to share a room with Lu Feng, You definitely have to stop me in case I open the door again! Lu Feng: Wei Xiao reminded him very seriously, Really. Think about it, two years ago, not only did I open my own door, I also opened your door. It was really damn amazing! Lu Feng: It wasnt really that amazing. Two years ago, both of those two closed doors had been opened by Lu Feng. Wei Xiao had only tossed himself into his arms and clung onto him like an octopus, refusing to let go. Wei Xiao shook his head and sighed, I also never thought that sleepwalking skills could be upgraded. Its been two years since then, and who knows what that sleepwalking skill has been upgraded to now? So, captain, you have to take good care of me! Lu Feng moved his gaze away, Mm. There was no way to explain it. Hed just let it be. Wei Xiao looked like he was heartless and careless, but in fact, he was very observant. He asked, Captain, if I sleepwalk into your bed, would you mind? Wanting to share a room with Lu Feng was something hed considered carefully. Lu Feng had already seen his sleepwalking problem, and in any case, hed already lost all his face there. It was better to continue with one person. Besides, two years ago, Lu Feng hadnt minded him climbing into his bed. Two years later, the two of them were on the same team, so he shouldnt mind, right? Lu Feng: In fact, he did mind a little. Wei Xiao could see his dilemma and immediately said, Its okay, its okay. Ill go find Old Bai and stay In any case, Old Bai knew about it too. Although that fellow was ruthless, he would only kick him out of bed. For the first time, Lu Feng experienced having his mouth speak faster than his reason could kick in, No need. Wei Xiao: Huh? Lu Feng: Well stay in the same room. Wei Xiao: About that, dont force yourself He couldnt bear to see Close be wronged. Lu Feng frowned, Not forcing myself. Wei Xiao: You really want to live with me? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao: You dont mind if I hold you in my sleep? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: Ill Lu Feng: I dont mind. Wei Xiao was amused, Captain, you look like someone who is making compromises for the general good God Lu couldnt bear to continue listening and interrupted him, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was startled and secretly felt that the situation wasnt good. Sure enough, the great demon kings next sentence was, We can stay in the same room, provided you dont come find me for solo matches in those 15 days. Wei Xiao: Shit, that was over the top! No way Wei Xiao caught up, Captain how about we room separately. Lu Feng didnt even turn his head back, Too late. Wei Xiao: Sigh They were leaving for 15 days, and Wei Xiao was particularly worried about Soybean. Reasonably speaking, the training matches could be arranged online. The reason why they all had to drag everyone into one place was due to capital intervention. The competition committee would use whatever means necessary to make the matches look good. For what? It was all for money. The proper competitions werent enough, and they didnt want to let go of even the off-season, so theyd created this special winter training. It was true that the original intention of the competition committee was to narrow the skill gap between different competition zones so that the global competition wouldnt be dominated by powerful teams while simultaneously giving new teams some opportunities. However since theyd already organized it, it was illogical not to try and make some money off of it along the way. The winter training competitions wouldnt be broadcasted live. After all, the scores didnt count, and winning or losing wasnt meaningful, so the audiences interest wouldnt be particularly high. But, they could shoot content of the players daily lives. After so many years, Glory had developed from a state where people simply watched the game at the very start, to now, where many star players were really worthy of the word star. They could capture the interaction between top class players, arrange some daily activities, and someone might become the new hot topic at any minute. As long as there was traffic, sponsors would immediately be willing to pay for it, which meant that it was a little bit like a reality show. Being able to see the players during the off-season and to be able to see so many of them at the same time, was something that made the fans extremely happy! So, the competition committee pulled everyone together for training. In any case, the sponsors would pay for the hotel, venue, and itinerary. Early in the morning, Wei Xiao was doing some ideological preparation with Soybean, Son, be good, your father will bring you back delicious food! Soybean: Aroo! Wei Xiao rubbed its doggy head, And buy you toys! Soybean: Arooo! Wei Xiao was reluctant to part from it and continued to coax, Daddy will have video calls with you every day! Soybean didnt understand a thing, Arooooo! It continued until Xiang Liu brought over a little female assistant, Dont worry, the base has arranged for people to take good care of it. The man and dog who had deep familial feelings and were inseparable from each other, were separated in an instant. Soybean pounced at the little assistant girl with a happy whine. The little sister wasnt afraid, and her smile became even more beautiful, Oh, its so enthusiastic. Soybean forgot all about its dad once it saw a beauty, wrapping itself around the beautiful young assistant with delighted cries. Wei Xiao: How had he managed to raise such a doggy thing! Lu Feng just arrived downstairs in time to see the sullen Wei Xiao. Whats the matter? Lu Feng asked him. Wei Xiaos tone wasnt happy, I experienced the feeling of being forgotten by ones son after theyve found a daughter-in-law! Lu Feng then saw Soybean playing together with the assistant. As soon as Soybean caught sight of Lu Feng, it left the little sister behind to come for hugs. Lu Feng scratched its chin, his black eyes soft, Look after the place. Soybean used its big head to rub against him, acting incredibly intimate. Bai Cai had also just arrived downstairs, and Wei Xiao spoke in a sour tone, What does this dog mean with this?! Bai Cai dragged his expensive little suitcase behind him, Hm? Wei Xiao spoke angrily, Tell me, between me and the captain, who is more attractive? Bai Cai: ??? It was so early in the morning. How come he was being asked this kind of dangerous question?! i <3 Soybean Chapter 35.2: Bai Cai: Are you f*cking straight?! Wei Xiaos actions werent small, and Lu Feng also heard him. He shot him a sideways glance and said, Youre good looking. Bai Cai: !!! His hand slipped, and Brother Cai almost allowed his 66,000 yuan suitcase to roll down the stairs. Wei Xiao stared at Soybean, Youre just coaxing me. Look, its clearly closer to you! This dog was like a beauty value tester. It was incredibly accurate. Lu Feng gave Soybean a very gentle smile, If you spend more time with it, itd be close with you too. If you wanted Wei Xiao to get up at seven in the morning, it was better to just kill him. Forget it, forget it. Wei Xiao willingly gave up, Youre still better looking. Our Close is the first male god of Glory, handsome enough to break the skies! Bai Cai, who was carefully guarding his small suitcase, Why the hell did I want to be here! Lu Feng had arranged everything properly. Just based on the little assistant girls appearance, the husky would definitely have a good time over the next 15 days. Being an appearance-lover dog was great, it was wonderful. Happiness came in such a direct and simple way. The flight was booked for 11 oclock. Although they didnt have to set aside too much time for boarding due to their business class tickets, the base was a little far from the airport, and they had to leave at 9 oclock. Wei Xiao was seated beside Bai Cai in the nanny car. Wei Xiao: The captain really doesnt have it easy. Bai Cai thought to himself: It was fortunate that the captain had a job to be busy with. Otherwise, you would simply stick yourself to him! Could you be a little more reserved! Wei Xiao continued to chatter on in a low voice, Say, why is the gap between different people so big? The captain is two years older than me. How come hes already won four championships and bought a club? Bai Cai rolled his eyes. Wei Xiao was a total Close cheerleader. He was very qualified for the job, He can run a club while playing professionally. The key point is that his skills havent been impacted at all. Im often very puzzled about whether or not theres anything in this world that can trouble Close. Bai Cai glanced at him and thought to himself: This something was probably both as far as the skies and as near as right in front of him. Wei Xiao continued to praise, Hes handsome, and it has to be admitted that Soybean, this damned dog, has really good eyes. Our captain is better looking than I am. Bai Cai couldnt hold back anymore, Old Wei. Wei Xiao: Huh? Bai Cai stared at him, Are you still f*cking straight? Wei Xiao didnt understand, Straight? Bai Cai moved his mouth: Gay. Wei Xiao understood Bai Cais meaning and cursed, Get lost! Bai Cai gave him a very focused look. Wei Xiao was very calm, Answer a few questions for me. Bai Cai: Ask. Wei Xiao: Is the captain strong or not? Bai Cai: Strong. Is the captain amazing or not? Amazing. Is the captain handsome or not? Handsome. Wei Xiao patted Bai Cai on the shoulder, Old Bai, are you straight? Bai Cai: F*ck, hed been led so off-track they were now in the cornfields! It was an hours drive. Wei Xiao had slept late last night, and at this time, he was fast asleep against the window. When he woke up, he caught a glimpse of Bai Cai looking through his Weibo. Bai Cai was logged into his Gossip Emperor account and was currently editing a photo. Wei Xiaos eyes were hazy with sleep, Asleep? Bai Cais fingers moved like they were flying, and a short post came whistling out, Yes, 3Us flight was one flight earlier than ours. News about the special winter training had already been spread out on the internet. After learning about the teams itinerary, many fans went to camp out at the airport for photos and signatures. Wei Xiao leaned over and saw the photo, Tsk tsk tsk. Bai Cai pushed him away, Dont stare so much. Wei Xiao: Its not your photo, so what if I stare at it? Bai Cai: Im afraid youll turn crooked from all the staring! Wei Xiao tsked and took out his cell phone to search up the Gossip Emperor on Weibo to see his latest post. The photo Bai Cai was using had been contributed by the fans. The little sister had very powerful skills, and the photo was particularly beautiful. After checking in their luggage, the 3U captain leaned against his vice-captains shoulder and slept in a daze; the 3U vice-captain Cong Yis expression was normal as he signed for fans, having become used to it long ago. There were five or six photos taken in a row, from all angles and in all directions. According to Wei Xiaos unprofessional inspection, they may even have turned on a filter! Little sisters, you are all very hard-working. He watched the comments and forwarding skyrocket on Weibo. A whole pile of girls had been moved into happy squeals, and they were as happy as if theyd really eaten a mouthful of sugar. Wei Xiao was just about to close it when a new comment popped upCC Our Pajamas CP is real! 3U is really too sweet! The Immortals CP with immortal appearances, its such a happy occasion to be a 3U girl. I wont chase after FTW anymore. The great demon kings great wall of CPs are all fake, and each and every one of them is poison. This old lady only wants to eat candy, not swallow knives! Wei Xiao stared at it for a while. This comment was quickly swept down beneath countless other comments, all of which were either complaining to high heaven or filled with sorrow. Do you guys ship FTWs new CP? Close and Quiet? No, no. The ship wont sail, that ship wont sail. The great demon king has no feelings, and Little Q will end up as the next abandoned wife. Wake up, fellow sisters. Its good to be Closes poison fan. Dont look for abuse with CPs and such. These hundreds of comments that came at the speed of light inspired Wei Xiaos professional heart. What was going on? Werent Close and Quiet attractive? Yet you guys actually dont want to ship it! Whats so good about the Pajamas CP? Wasnt it just Sleeping on each others shoulders. Wei Xiao put down his cell phone and asked Bai Cai, Will we meet fans when we arrive at the airport? Bai Cai was in the middle of something, Of course. Dont you know how popular FTW is? Wei Xiao nodded, Okay. These fans were really not good enough. He had to help them set up the right attitude. What was the point in shipping the Pajamas CP? If Asleep and Cong Yi were really gay, then their kids would already be old enough to make soy sauce! The CPs were equally fake. Why didnt they ship him and Close! As Bai Cai had said, FTW was really very popular. Many fans came up to ask for their autographs as soon as they arrived at the airport. One girl had sharp eyes and noticed Wei Xiao, and her eyes suddenly brightened, He-hello Wei Xiao smiled slightly, Hello. The girls cheeks were red, Excuse me, are you Quiet? Wei Xiao: Yes. The sound of inhales came from all around them. It was for no other reason, but because Wei Xiaos face was really attractive. It was especially the case with the lazy smile on his face, making people blush and their hearts thump. Although there were fans, at the end of the day, the players werent stars, and nobody would purposely delay the contestants schedule. After asking for autographs, they wouldnt continue to surround them. Of course, the fans would still continue to watch secretly until they finished passing the security check. After the security check, Wei Xiao suddenly called out, Captain. Lu Feng, who was at the front speaking with the assistant, turned around, Hm? Wei Xiao walked over, I want to tell you something. Lu Feng stopped, What He hadnt finished his question when the youth suddenly came close, his warm breath brushing against his ear. The low voice drifted straight into his ear, Dont move. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao curved his lips and said quietly, Itll be done soon. Even before Lu Feng could say anything, Wei Xiao had already pulled away. He blinked at Lu Feng, Done. Lu Feng stared at him. Wei Xiao gave him a nudge from behind, Lets go, lets go. Pass security! Come on, little sisters, Im waiting for your photos! It wasnt until they entered the lounge that Wei Xiao gave Lu Feng an explanation, You see, Ive just joined the team and dont have much popularity, so I wanted to take a bit of the captains popularity. The FTW crowd whod witnessed the whole process, Wei Xiao looked at Xiang Liu, Brother Liu, am I right? Other teams all indulge their fans. We should also conduct ourselves properly! The managers head was covered in a thin layer of sweat, Yes, indeed. A contestant that was so cooperative. It was the first damned time Brother Liu had seen such a thing across the whole Glory circle! Lu Feng glanced at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was very candid, Isnt that right, captain~ Lu Feng grabbed him by the front of his clothes and pulled him over. Wei Xiao: ! Looking at this face from such a close distance, the impact was really great! Lu Feng: Take a photo. Old Bai: F*ck! There was a click. Lu Feng released Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao slapped his own chest, Amazing, my captain. It was fortunate he wasnt a girl. If he was a girl, wouldnt he end up wanting nobody but him! Ten minutes later, Weibo exploded. First was the Gossip Emperors Weibo, when it forwarded a photo contributed by the fans. The photo was taken at the airport. The cold-faced great demon king was looking back, while a young man with black hair and pale skin leaned over, saying something unknown into his ear. The youth had beautiful eyes and features. The corners of his lips were raised up in a half smile, and there was a sense of banter beneath his long eyelashes. Closes face was caught in profile, his slender neck stretching out from his collar, his skin pale and cold against the dark team uniform, but the tips of his ears were a little red. The Weibo content was one line of text from Brother Cai, whod sent himself into seclusion and had self-exploded: Seclusion CP, learn about it. Juurensha: Poor Bai Cai hahahaha. And of course WX captain of his own ship. xiin: omggg hes so clueless about his feelings HAHAHA Chapter 36.1: The captain is so fierce~! There was no doubt that the traffic for the Gossip Emperors Weibo had just reached a new peak. It was a simple sentence, but because the photo was so powerful, the comments caused it to shoot all the way up like a rocket. Who is this? Who is this person who molested my husband?! The tips of his ears are red! The great demon kings ears are red! Seclusion? Who are the Seclusion CP? I just went to sleep, why did the sky collapse when I woke up? The little brother is wearing FTWs team clothing, and theyre on the way to training. Who else is a member of FTWs starting line-up who hasnt shown his face yet?! Quiet! Is God Q really so good looking?! Im in love, Im in love, that little face, that evil smile, this old ladys young maiden heart! Im done for. Does your FTW pick your starters based on their faces? Why is everyone from the captain to the newcomer all so good looking? Im a fan of an e-sports contestant, right?! Why do they all look like idols?? I already thought that Baby Ning was handsome, I didnt expect the new top-laner to be so to my taste. Hes teasing God Lu, ahhhh he dares to tease God Lu! Sisters, Im alright again. This pair is a little tempting. I really want to ship it! All of a sudden, I feel a little heartache for Brother Cai. Heartache +1. Heartache +С Heartache for the Preserved Vegetables sisters, their house is collapsing right in front of their eyes! Haha, what collapsing? For better or worse, my God Bai is considered pretty and handsome in the e-sports circle, yet now that hes fallen to FTW, hes really being compared to vegetables. Brother Cai is the real hammer Brother Cai is stable. Bai Cais mouth twitched when he skimmed through these posts. What was wrong with these girls? Did they actually know who was giving them happiness every day! It was fine if they didnt praise him, but they even tried to bury him! Ah. The Gossip Emperor wanted to delete his account every day. Wei Xiao was also looking through Weibo. He frowned after he saw it, Old Bai, what are you doing! Bai Cai didnt want to pay attention to him and played dead. Wei Xiao wouldnt let him off just like that, I already said that the Seclusion CP is an unlucky name, why would you give it the stamp of approval? I wanted to stimulate the masses to brainstorm and come up with the perfect CP name! Bai Cai lay on his back on the sofa. He was already a yellowed, white cabbage that had been tossed onto the ground. Regarding the Seclusion CP, Bai Cai hadnt explained much, but the comments were more than enough to make up for it. Why is it the Seclusion CP? Because its Close and Quiet? I think its because they hammer the other side into seclusion. Those who abuse themselves with the great demon kings great wall of CPs will all go into seclusion? Theyre all fine, they all work, theres no problem with it. As long as you dont send a knife and have me go into seclusion! Wei Xiao was still unhappy, Sigh, none of the CP names are satisfying. Is coming up with a CP name such a troublesome thing? Bai Cai closed his eyes, Im in the middle of seclusion. Do not disturb. Wei Xiao let out a long sigh, We cant even find the right CP name. Is it not suitable for me and the team captain to engage in a CP? Bai Cai: You two are indeed not suitable for CPs. You two are f*cking suited for becoming a couple! Forget it, forget it, there was no need to rush up for self-abuse. Brother Cai meditated quietly. Seeing that Bai Cai was ignoring him, Wei Xiao continued looking through his cell phone and was struck by inspiration. Thats right The thing that really flipped Weibo upside down was what Wei Xiao did next. The Gossip Emperors Weibo post made the pot boil, but Quiet made the pot explode! Wei Xiao sent out a post, and the content was: The captain is so fierce~! The photo that came with it had Close holding the front of his clothing, their gazes locked together. Bai Cai had taken the photo. As the veteran Gossip Emperor, any photo he took casually could still convey that kind of feeling. Closes long fingers were grasping Quiets dark team uniform, the pale white and black forming a very strong visual impact. Both of them were in profile, one with hooded eyes, and one looking surprised. An invisible layer of tension painted the entire photo, as though in the next moment, the two of them would Kiss, kiss, kiss! Wheres the head-pressing team? These two people are in urgent need of support! Oh my mother, God Lu is all alpha! Is this the follow-up? Is this the part where Little Q gets the tables turned on him after teasing the great demon king? Wait a minute who sent out this Weibo post? Quiet himself! God Q is so wild? Think about the live broadcast two days ago Not only is he making waves, hes basically making shock waves! Wei Xiao didnt look at his cell phone after sending out the message, because theyd boarded the plane ahead of time. The Glory competition committee arranged for economy class tickets, but FTW upgraded the whole team to business class, ensuring that everyone could sleep comfortably during the five hour trip. The boarding passes were all grouped together. The seat in Wei Xiaos hands was near Bai Cai, but he didnt want to be next to Brother Cai. Brother Cai had a little problem that was neither small nor big; he couldnt sleep on a plane no matter how long or short the flight was. He couldnt sleep, but he would still feel sleepy. In order to make himself a little more comfortable while reading books, he would continuously drink coffee. If he drank too much, he would have to run to the toilet. Back and forth, back and forth Wei Xiao, who could fall asleep as soon as he got on the plane, might end up irritated to death by him! Wei Xiao leaned in close to Lu Feng, Captain! Lu Feng: Hm? He leaned away from him slightly out of fear that he would jump up next to his ear again. Wei Xiao asked him, Do you still have things to do after boarding? In the minivan, Lu Feng and the assistant had been busy for a long time. Wei Xiao couldnt be sure if he would still be busy for the five hours on the plane. Lu Feng certainly wouldnt be finished with the things that needed to be done, but Lu Feng: Yes? Wei Xiao blinked his eyes, If youre not busy, can I sit next to you? The end of the sentence was a little drawn out and very much infused with a spoiled tone. Lu Fengs ears trembled, Wei Xiao: Can I! Lu Feng: Alright. Wei Xiaos smile bloomed, Kay! Lu Feng couldnt help but ask him, Why did you think of sitting next to me. Although Wei Xiao was disdaining Brother Cai, it wasnt something he would say out loud. He answered vaguely, Nothing, really. Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiao instantly came up with a reason, I sleep soundly around you! Lu Feng: Bai Cai, who was behind them, stumbled and almost fell to his knees. He knew what Wei Xiao was thinking. Wasnt he just disdaining him for disturbing his sleep? Laozi wouldnt bite you if you told the damn truth. Did you have to be so, so F*ck, there was still a chance to live if the heavens were messing with you, but if you made trouble for yourself, there was really no saving yourself. Wei Xiaoxiao, youre on your own! So, Wei Xiao ended up seated by Lu Feng. In fact, it wasnt a big deal to sit next to each other. International flights were all on big planes, and the seats in business class were very spacious. There wouldnt be a situation where heads ended up bumping together. Wei Xiao was really very sleepy. After he separated from Lu Feng last night, hed gone on to play ranked games on his own and had only gone to sleep at 4AM. Hed only gotten 30 or 40 minutes of sleep in the minivan, and it was not enough at all. After the plane took off, he instantly fell asleep without even taking a sip of his lemonade. Lu Feng looked at Wei Xiao, and the corner of his lips curved slightly: He was really sleeping soundly. It was unknown if it was because he was tired or something else, but Lu Feng, who normally couldnt sleep on planes, actually started to also feel sleepy. Lu Feng rubbed his forehead, switched off his computer, turned his head, and fell asleep. Bai Cai was really unable to sleep. He wouldnt be able to sleep even if he was beaten to death and had to rely on coffee to survive, drinking one cup after another. As a result, he became addicted to going to the toilet Halfway through the trip, Bai Cai had just come out of the toilet when he happened to pass by Wei Xiaos and Lu Fengs seats. His hands itched when he saw the scene, and he almost took out his cell phone to take a photo right then and there. In the wide seats, Wei Xiao lay on his side facing Lu Feng, his long legs curled up, and his hair covering his forehead. His eyes that were full of arrogance at normal times were closed, and he looked very cute and well-behaved when he was quiet. Lu Feng was lying on his back beside him. The hands of god that fans praised all the way to the heavens were placed on his belly, and his coat was draped casually over his legs. His collar was slightly open, exposing half of his collarbone due to the way his head was tilted, and the long, slender neck led up to his relaxed, sleeping face. His head was leaning to the side, towards Wei Xiao. It was two people who werent leaning that close to each other, yet the scene inexplicably gave off a sense of mutual dependence. Bai Cai: Unfortunately, the Seclusion girls wouldnt be able to see this classic scene. Wei Xiao slept very contentedly and was fully refreshed after he got off the plane. After they picked up their luggage and boarded the minivan, Wei Xiao opened up Weibo again. He sucked in a breath of surprise as soon as it opened up. Everyone looked at him. Wei Xiao looked at it carefully, then asked Ning Zhehan, How many fans do you have on Weibo? Ning Zhehan had started to become famous even at the training camp, and he went through another round of publicity after joining FTW. Little Ning looked at his fan count very seriously and said, Around 1.5 million. Wei Xiao sighed, Im at 2 million. How many days had it been since the account was created? FTW hadnt even publicized it seriously and hadnt posted any official marketing posters. This fan count Xiang Liu, as the club manager, was also surprised, It was less than a million when I checked yesterday. The operations department of the club would pay attention to the teams Weibo accounts. After all, it was a matter of some importance. Wei Xiao shook his head, Its still rising. It seems like itll surpass Bai Cai by evening. Bai Cais main account only had around 2.5 million fans. It was quite a far cry from the Gossip Emperors 7 million fans. Little Ning was very supportive and flattering, Brother Xiao, youre too amazing! Wei Xiaos tail had already been cocked up in pride, and now, he became even prouder. Yet his voice was modest as he said, Its all thanks to the CP fans. Little Ning paused. Instinct told him that the situation wasnt good. Sure enough, Wei Xiaos next sentence was all about his lousy idea, Dont worry, we can also form a CP. Your fan count will instantly soar up to the heavens! Ning Zhehan: !!! sponsored by Ko-Fis~ 1/5 Chapter 36.2: Sweet and sour, have some vinegar~ Lu Feng, who was on the left, glanced over at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was unaware of it and was still enthusiastically helping a bro, In a bit, have Old Bai help us take a photo, just like the one with me and the captain. Itll definitely He hadnt even finished speaking, yet Ning Zhehan could feel a chill sweep over. He quickly waved his hands, No need, no need! Wei Xiao: Dont be shy. Many girls dont even play games, but they come to the scene every time to cheer us on. What do you think its for? Ning Zhehan: He didnt know, and he didnt want to know. Could he choose not to hear it?! Wei Xiao was really able to see things a little too clearly, They come to see our love and affection! Ning Zhehan: The pitiful granny gray sent his teammates looks that pleaded for help, but Old Yue was deeply engrossed in his chips, Old Bai had his eyes closed to save energy, and the captain Lu Feng set down his tablet and glanced over, Can you do it? These words were spoken to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: Huh? Lu Feng: Two million is enough to affect one point five million? Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly saw the light, Oh, right. I dont have enough fans. As expected. As soon as he started speaking, Ning Zhehan was scared: Big boss, please dont have the captain help me increase my fans ahhhhh, I want to be alive when I arrive at the training, ahh!! Wei Xiaos brain circuits were destined to be different from others. He could be heard saying, As expected, some people have to become successful first. How about this, Ill first take advantage of the captains popularity, and after the captains CP with me explodes through the whole internet, Ill take you up! Little Ning: The ups and downs his heart was experiencing now were more stimulating than the finals in the youth training camp! Lu Feng called out to him, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao immediately looked over, Here! Lu Feng: Be focused with your work. Wei Xiao didnt quite understand, Ah? Then, he got it and nodded. I understand. I will be focused in the future and only work with the captain! Lu Feng replied calmly, Mm. Everyone in the vehicle: ?????? It was fortunate that the drive didnt understand Chinese. Otherwise, the vehicle would probably have ended up heading towards the suburbs! Wei Xiao took advantage of one success to get more, Captain! Lu Feng: ? Wei Xiao: See, Im so sensible and understanding. Can you solo with me a little bit in the next 15 days? Lu Feng stressed, Focus. Wei Xiao was surprised, Only focused on work, and not allowed to solo? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao was now regretting it, Captain, what do you think about this? I wont work with you and only focus on soloing with you! Lu Feng glanced at the assistant, Have you finished changing the contract? The innocent assistant who was shot at while lying down, ??? You approved the proposal only five minutes ago. I cant have finished changing it by now even if I had 10 hands! All the way until the minivan arrived at the training grounds, Wei Xiao still didnt have another chance to talk to Lu Feng. The competition committee had probably obtained quite a lot of sponsorship funds, as theyd directly taken over an entire resort hotel. The environment and conditions were incredibly good. When they checked in, they were also given game accounts that were linked exclusively to the winter training server. These IDs had been certified in advance and couldnt be changed. Of course, there was also no need to change them. FTW couldnt be considered to have arrived early. There were other teams arriving in a continuous stream, but they werent familiar with each other and didnt exchange greetings. 3U had departed earlier than FTW, but it was a pity that their flight was delayed or two hours because of a connecting flight, and they hadnt yet arrived. The front desk gave Xiang Liu an itinerary, on which was written todays general arrangements. All the teams would arrive by evening. There was a pre-training meeting and a performance match at nine oclock that would mark the start of winter training. Wei Xiao was curious about the performance match, Who is playing against whom? Bai Cai looked at the itinerary, Do you need to think about it? It must be L&P and Pro. The so-called performance match was definitely a way to have the strongest teams from last season come up on stage. It would simulate everyones passion and act as a warm up ahead of time. L&P was the runner up from last season, while Pro had taken third place. Just thinking about it was enough to make them excited and hot-blooded. Let alone the fact that L&Ps captain Yuan Ze and Pros starting ADC Kim Sung-hyun were old teammates. These two had once played together in the Team of Gods, and the legends about them were still unforgettable to this day. Yuan Ze was well-known in North America. To be so respected by Westerners despite being Chinese, there was no need to talk about how strong he was. After returning to South Korea, Kim Sung-hyun crushed all his predecessors, slaughtering a bloody path to the top in the South Korea competition zone that was known for frequently creating immortal ADCs! Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun had attracted so much fame and attention. In contrast, their old home, FTW, was really a little pitiful. With the exception of a Close, this years FTW still had nothing going for them. Take a look at the two newcomers. They were very handsome, but what was the use in that? This was e-sports, where they fought with strength. It was completely useless to have a better face without any achievements. Other than Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun, the teams from other competition zones hadnt paid any attention to Wei Xiaos live broadcast back in China. What kind of seedling could be found in the China competition zone that had been on the downturn for a long time? The main rivals were still in the North America, Europe, and South Korea competition zones. The pre-training meeting was set at 8PM, in a large banquet hall in the hotel. The competition committee had made arrangements ahead of time. The banquet hall could easily accommodate 100-200 people, and equipment had been set up on the center stage. It seemed that the performance competition that kicked off the winter training would also take place here. Because the banquet hall was very spacious, nobodys seats were fixed, and they could sit wherever they wanted. The teams wore their team uniforms when they entered the hall, so it was easy to identify them. The teams who were from the same competition zone or who were already acquaintances all greeted each other. The hall turned silent when FTW came in. Many people stared at Close. Some had heated gazes, some looked sorry, and some were sarcasticCC The number one in the world, with three consecutive singles championships. This reputation wasnt false, yet it was also not quite true. No matter how strong Closes personal strength was, Close was doomed to be unable to leave FTW, and FTW was already an incompetent team that couldnt support itself. A golden phoenix in a dilapidated town. How ridiculous. These gazes were too direct, and Ning Zhehan, who was inherently more sensitive already, felt uncomfortable. Yue Wenle was also silent. Bai Cai lowered his gaze and followed behind, not meeting anyones gaze. Wei Xiao frowned. There were ten thousand unhappy feelings bubbling away in his heart. Lu Fengs expression was cold as he walked straight ahead. The air pressure around the entire FTW hit rock bottom. Chen Feng couldnt help worrying. Although hed already done psychological preparation in advance, everything was just empty talk in front of really experiencing this pressure. Even Wei Xiaos face was stiff. As for the others Theyd just sat down when Wei Xiao couldnt help muttering in a low voice, Damn it theyre all staring at Close, what are they looking at! Chen Feng: Wei Xiao continued angrily, Even I cant solo with him for these 15 days. They shouldnt even think about it! Everyone in FTW: So your frown was so tense, and your expression so serious because you were angry about this? Wei Xiao was not at ease. He leaned close to Lu Feng and called to him, Captain!! Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiao stared at him, In these 15 days, dont solo with anyone! Lu Feng was a little shocked. Wei Xiao stressed, As long as you dont solo with anyone, I wont pester you for solo games either! Thinking about how Close had soloed with people for the sake of training matches two years ago, he was really unhappy! After saying that, Wei Xiao felt that hed been too domineering and continued explaining, I mean, youre not allowed to wrong yourself. If theres someone you really want to solo with, you can Damn it, he couldnt go on. He felt so sour. As soon as he thought of Lu Feng sincerely wanting to solo with others, he felt so sour that he was making bubbles of sourness! Lu Fengs cold face finally gained some warmth, There isnt. Wei Xiao paused. Lu Feng spoke softly, Theres nobody here I want to solo with. The sour vinegar bubbles in Wei Xiaos chest fermented and instantly became a flow of heat, Really? Lu Feng: They are all losers beneath my hands. Theres no meaning in soloing with them. Wei Xiao: ! Other than Close, there was nobody else who was qualified to say such a thing. In the entire banquet hall, there were 18 elite teams that came out of 16 competition zones. It added up to nearly 90 players in starting lineups, and all of them had lost to Close! Not only was Wei Xiaos eyes bright, even Ning Zhehan was sitting up straighter. What were they afraid of? What was there to be afraid of? The strongest person in the world was in their FTW. What did they have to be afraid of! Wei Xiaos heart was itchy. It was so itchy that he couldnt wait to turn on the computer and have a huge battle with Lu Feng right now! The powerful Close. The dazzling Close. The Close that nobody on earth could beat! This was the worlds number one who hed been chasing after for two years! Lu Feng paused for a moment, then suddenly added, Oh, thats not right. Wei Xiao was dazed for a second. Lu Feng: Theres still one person. Wei Xiaos mood, that had flown up to the skies, suddenly dropped down again, Who! Was it that nasty guy Yuan Ze? Or was it Kim Sung-hyun! Lu Feng smiled, You. Wei Xiao blinked. Lu Feng revised his statement, Other than you, theres nobody here I want to solo with. Chapter 37.1: I was born one of Closes people, and Ill die as Closes ghost! The corner of Wei Xiaos lips went up and up, until it was almost next to the sun. Everyone in FTW couldnt keep watching anymore. They all bowed their heads to do their own thing. Fortunately, they were surrounded by foreigners who didnt understand Chinese. Otherwise Who the hell knew what would happen otherwise! Wei Xiao was very embarrassed, Although I know that you value me, I didnt expect that you valued me so much. He looked like he was embarrassed, but his words didnt come across that way at all. Lu Feng was about to answer, but he then heard Wei Xiao ask him, But arent I also someone who was defeated at your hands? If those whod suffered defeat werent worth soloing with, then Wei Xiaoxiao had lost countless times, so wasnt that also meaningless? Lu Feng: You will win. Wei Xiaos tail cocked up, Thats true, Im still a newcomer He thought of Lu Fengs evaluation of him and quickly added, I have a promising future, right? Lu Feng replied, Yes, the future is promising. Wei Xiao really loved these words. His heart was heated, and he started to climb up the ladder again, How about we let this future come a little faster? The sooner they soloed the sooner he would grow! He wanted to win against Close! The corner of Lu Fengs lips turned down, You want to solo? Wei Xiao nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice, excited and expectant. Lu Feng tried to keep his face straight, Regular season He didnt need to finish the words. Wei Xiao collapsed back in his chair and directly answered, I get it, I get it! He mimicked Lu Fengs tone and said, Was the regular season a grand slam? Did you win all the playoffs? Have you taken home the world cup? If you havent done any of it, then how Lu Feng: Everyone in the venue: Wei Xiaos arrogant words had just fallen, and the originally noisy banquet hall fell silent. Everyone had clearly heard Wei Xiaos words. Wei Xiao didnt take it seriously. There were over a hundred people, but no more than 20 of them could understand Chinese. So what if theyd heard? Besides, even if they could understand, so what? Daddy Xiao dared to say it and do it. There was nothing to be afraid of! Bai Cai, who was sitting behind him, knew why the scene had suddenly gone quiet. It wasnt because of Wei Xiaos bluster, but because of a group of people whod walked in from entrance number 2. Half of them wore L&Ps silver-grey team uniform, while the other half wore Pros blue and white team uniform, and the two people leading the teams were both very attractive. The man in the silver-gray team uniform to the left had short black hair and black eyes. He was talking to the person next to him, and a white agate ear stud sparkled in the light, lending to his frivolous and arrogant appearance. This was L&Ps team captain, Yuan Ze. Regardless of whether it was the North American competition zone or the China competition zone, everyone had the same evaluation: Marshal, a scum man. The other man in the blue and white team uniform to the right had slightly long, curly black hair. He had a pair of phoenix eyes beneath long eyebrows, and a tear mole beneath his left eye. When he didnt smile, he looked cold and proud, but his expression became a little ambiguous and intimate when he smiled. Pros leading ADC, Kim Sung-hyun, had numerous fans in China in the early years of his career. After returning to his home country, he continued to be popular and still had countless fans in the China competition zone. The reason for this was because, back when he was in FTWs Team of Gods, he was the one who had the most reason to leave. After all, when the contract expired, there was nothing wrong with returning back to his home country and switching allegiances. The people in the banquet hall didnt care what they looked like, though. They only cared that they were strong. It was just like when Close came in, they had all paid attention. How could they not stare when these two teams arrived? L&P was last years world championship runner-up, and Gary had taken second place in the individual competition. As for Pro, not only had they taken third place in the team competition, Kim Sung-hyun and his teammate Li Heran had won the doubles championship! Two teams, 10 starting players. Each of them had results to be proud of. How could peoples eyes not heat up when they saw them! Besides, they had all arrived together. It was unknown what Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun were talking about, but the appearance of two people from the honored Temple of Glory was enough to make the entire rooms blood boil! The venue grew quiet when they came in. Wei Xiaos voice that shouldve been drowned out in the background noise became unusually clear in the banquet hallCC Was the regular season a grand slam? Did you win all the playoffs? Have you taken home the world cup? If you havent done any of it, then how Those who couldnt understand: ??? Those who could understand: Gary recognized FTWs team uniform at a glance. He didnt know what Wei Xiao looked like, but this voice was too familiar. Even if it was purposely suppressed, he could still identify it clearly! That son of a bitch, he still dared to be crazy after leaving home! World championship? Dream on! Old G could hear him, and so could Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun. Yuan Ze curved his lips, Im going to meet this kid. Kim Sung-hyun noticed Lu Feng, and spoke to Yuan Ze in Chinese, Bro. Those whod been called bro by Kim Sung-hyun in Chinese. Later on they all didnt have any later on! Yuan Ze pretended not to have heard him. Kim Sung-hyun approached him deliberately and said, Dont forget to broadcast live Yuan Ze: Yuan Ze walked away with big strides, heading to the place where the FTW team had settled. Compared with the old fox, the little children with teeth and flying claws were too cute. Wei Xiao only noticed L&P after the fact. It was Yuan Ze and Old Gs first time meeting Wei Xiao, but Wei Xiao understood them very well. After all, they were all veteran players of the game, and those who watched their competitions every day had become familiar with them long ago. Yuan Ze smiled slightly, Quiet? One wouldnt reach out to slap the face of a smiling person. Wei Xiao gave a superficial smile and greeted them. Old Gs crappy Chinese was really no better than the Martian language, 2021s championshit cup iz hour L&Ps! Everyone in FTW: You might as well speak English! Wei Xiao was amused, Okay, okay, the championshit cup is yours. Old G couldnt tell the difference, but Yuan Ze didnt have a single ounce of team camaraderie and directly laughed out loud. Gary: ??? What exactly was wrong. God Yuan might have laughed, but he would still get even, Little friend, if you want to get the world cup, you wont be able to do it in FTW. Why dont you come to L&P? Previously, it had been a private invitation. This time, he handed out this olive branch in front of countless professional players from 18 teams across all the competition zones. Most of the people present couldnt understand Chinese, but they could still understand the situation based on what they saw. Yuan Ze and FTW had countless enmities and grudges between them. Now, he was coming to provoke FTWs newcomer? FTW was too miserable. There was a 90% chance that they would be beaten into seclusion this year. Some foreign teams who understood Chinese understood the conversation, and then they became confused. What the hell was this? Marshal had invited that arrogant kid from FTW to L&P? Who the hell was that kid? Quiet Theyd never heard of this person. Yuan Ze dared to invite Wei Xiao in front of so many people, and Wei Xiao dared to reject him in front of over a hundred professional players, No! Yuan Ze wasnt surprised at all, Think about it. Theres still 15 days. Wei Xiao got straight to the point, No need to think about it. Im not going anywhere. I was born as an FTW person, and Ill die as an FTW ghost! Chen Feng: Although a part of him wanted to laugh, he inexplicably felt a little touched. What was the deal with that! Tang Chen directly laughed out loud, Hahaha, Little Wei, you This little brain of Wei Xiaos was really the limit. He thought about how FTWs boss was Lu Feng, and his voice grew even louder, Indeed, I was born one of Closes people, and Ill die as Closes ghost! Everyone in the banquet hall who could understand Chinese, Bai Cai: F*ck, was there a crack in the floor? Laozi wanted to drill inside! Chapter 37.2: You want to screw with me? Get in line. What made everyone from FTW want to drill into a crack in the floor was how Wei Xiaoxiao, a 985 university entrance score student whod gotten 103 in English, then translated this sentence into English and repeated it again! I was born a Close man, and will die a Close ghost! It was settled. The entire banquet hall was confused! Those who didnt understand Chinese and were guessing the situation all asked for clarification, and those who knew Chinese quickly explained the context. It was passed on and on The story was beginning to turn bizarre. At first, it was still normal, Marshal invited FTWs newcomer to L&P! Then, it was still alright, That newcomer refused to submit even in death! Then, it started to turn weird, Marshal tried to forcefully snatch people! Finally, it became crazy, FTWs newcomer is a girl dressed as a man! At last, the whole world was in turmoil, Marshal and Close both fell in love with this girl dressed as a man at the same time! Bai Cai, who was fed a whole mouthful of gossip later on, That was so f*cking ridiculous! Even Yuan Ze was stunned when he heard Wei Xiaos words. However, as a seasoned old dog, God Yuan continued to try and pry people away, Youre only 19 years old, and youre still young. Dont be so He hadnt finished his words when Lu Feng suddenly stood up and interrupted him, Change seats. He said this to Wei Xiao. Lu Feng was to Wei Xiaos right, and his spot to the left was empty, which was why Yuan Ze could speak so freely. At this time, Lu Feng wanted to change seats with him, moving Wei Xiao further inside. Wei Xiao didnt want to agree. He still wanted to taunt Yuan Ze. Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiao: Fine, fine. Nobody could get in the captains way. Little Lunatic Wei got up very obediently and changed seats with Lu Feng. Lu Feng looked at Yuan Ze, Was there anything else? His voice was very cold. Yuan Ze: Lu Fengs face was expressionless, Or, do you want to sit here? Old Dog Yuans heart was empty. He said, No, well be doing a performance match soon. Well go warm up first. Lu Feng: Mm. Finally, L&P left, and the venue began to boil with excitement again. This time, everyone was only focused on one topicCC Who was FTWs newcomer! Who was this Quiet? How could he already be so embroiled in gossip even before his debut?! After that, the host came out and began to explain the winter training. First, the person in charge of the competition committee gave a speech, then the big daddy sponsor came in and gave a speech. After that, the host talked about the rules and conventions, which were cumbersome but important, and all the club managers and logistics personnel listened very carefully. Wei Xiao was seated close to Lu Feng and could sense that he was in a bad mood. There was someone talking at the front, and it wasnt appropriate for Wei Xiao to speak, so he picked up pen and paper from the desk and wrote Lu Feng a note. Lu Feng looked at the note and was stunned for a moment. The writing was just like the person. Wei Xiaos flying dragon and dancing phoenix style writing was very bold. The content was also as straightforward and simple as he wasCCCaptain, I wont leave FTW! I wont leave FTW This voice suddenly appeared in Lu Fengs brain. His eyes grew hooded, and he wrote on the note, There is no such thing as a never-ending feast in the world. Lu Feng had some regrets after writing this, but the words written in pen werent like words typed on a keyboard and couldnt be deleted. Wei Xiao looked at him with wide eyes. Lu Feng folded up the note and put it in his own pocket, Mm. His answer was soft, and it was almost drowned out by the speech being given on the stage, but Wei Xiao still heard it. His eyes brightened, and his lips curved up. Ill definitely never leave! FTW was Closes. He only wanted to follow Close! 15 days of training wasnt a very long time, so the schedule was very packed. The winter training server had already been started up, but there was still some time before the free matching began. Every day from 1PM to 6PM, all players had to participate in the free matching and accumulate personal points. After 6PM, the top three teams with the most points in total from their five players would be able to choose a team to be their training match partner at will. The invited team could not refuse, and the other teams could then choose opponents by drawing lots. For the sake of the sponsor gold daddies, these games would be broadcast live. The winning team could take the other sides prize pool. The bonus pool for the day was distributed according to the individual points from free matching. One point was 1000 yuan. For example, if the total score of the five members in the team was 100 points, then the teams prize pool was 100,000 yuan. Individual points were recalculated daily, but the bonus pool was cumulative. For example, if a team won a 200,000 bonus on the first day, even if their individual scores were zero the next day, they would still have a bonus pool of 200,000, making them the likely targets of being selected as an opponent. So, the winners must work even harder to win, and the losers would need to work hard at the free matching in order to save up points and win! The bonus pool would only grow bigger and bigger. It was hard to say what the amount would be by the 15th day! Wei Xiaos brain turned quickly, and he soon straightened out the rules. If we keep winning then wont we be able to take away everyones hard-earned money?! Indeed. 100 players earned points through the free matching. These points were used to increase the teams bonus pool. Once a team lost, the entire bonus would be taken away. On the other hand, as soon as a team won, not only would they keep the points earned by their own players, they would also win their opponents points! Chen Feng splashed cold water over his thoughts, The chance of losing is greater. What was he thinking about? The 18 teams were all the elites from each competition zone. What did FTW, as a team who did a round tour for each global competition, have on them that could help them win?! Wei Xiao had seen through it clearly long ago, Thats okay, as long as we win on the 15th day, well still win! Yes, this was the core of the competition system. It didnt matter how many times you lost at the start. It didnt even matter if they lost until their bonus pool was zero. As long as they won the first prize in the free matching on the 15th day and obtained the right to choose a team to fight against, they could still win it all back! After all, they were training matches. The important thing was the fights between the teams. The main goal was to stimulate the players passion and improve the effect of training, not the competitions elimination system. After talking about the rules, they then talked about many old rules, such as no fighting, no partying, no drinking All in all, players should be positive, focus on the competition, and create a good image of a harmonious society. By 9PM, when the entire audience was drowsy from listening, the real play began. The host announced, Next up, lets invite L&P and Pro to open up our Glory winter training Group A for 2021! The meeting was over, and the performance match was about to begin! The banquet hall suddenly went dark, and then L&Ps battle anthem sounded out as five people in silver gray uniforms walked out of the background towards the match platform that had been prepared a long time ago. After that came the Pros championship song. This was the glory and honor that only a champion, a team whod won the championship could have! As soon as the teams came out, the battle anthems sounded out, and a fight was imminent! All the players were instantly in high spirits! Although it was only a performance match, nobody would want to lose in such a high-profile situation Let alone two old rivals! Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyuns gratitude and resentment had been mentioned enough times online to circle the winter training venue three times over! The two teams came up, and the host performed a routine interview. Kim Sung-hyun accepted the microphone and started off in fluent Chinese, I dont care, but Marshal wants to win more. The host quickly translated his words and asked, Why does Marshal want to win? Kim Sung-hyun didnt hand the microphone over to Yuan Ze and continued to speak in Chinese, Its like this. Marshal broke a promise from many years ago and has to eat shit live. Im not interested in seeing this, so I proposed that as long as he won the performance match, he wouldnt have to broadcast it live. FTW, 3U and the melon-eating gossip watchers, Yuan Ze: L&P and Pros starters, who didnt quite understand, ??? Old G, who half-understood, Sheet? Sit? This pronunciation thing was too inhumane! The hosts face was confused. They really didnt know how to translate this! Yuan Ze stared at Kim Sung-hyun, Old Kim, youre done for. Top-laners had a natural advantage against marksmen. Yuan Ze would hammer Kim Sung-hyun until he exploded in this match. Kim Sung-hyun laughed like a cold mountain flower, and the words he said werent pleasant to the ears, You want to screw with me? Get in line. Chapter 38: Hello everyone, I am FTW.Quiet Host: Translate? To hell with translating, hey! This segment could be completely cut out! The host showed excellent professional qualities as she began interviewing Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze smiled slightly, his manner polite. Never mind what he was like in private. On the surface, God Yuan was elegant, and extremely gentlemanly, but there was a reason fans from all over the world called him a scum man. What was a scum man? Handsome, good at holding conversations, looked very polite, but was in fact a beast dressed in human clothing. For better or worse, God Yuans compatibility with this term was as high as 99%. The host grew brave under his slight smile and even dared to suggest, Marshal seems to have a good relationship with God Kim. Yuan Zes smile became even more charming, Yes, we often have training matches together. The host felt that this was someone who was easy to talk to and tried to further interview him, L&P and Pro had a wonderful match in the global finals last year. I wonder if the two sides have developed any new tactics during the off-season? Yuan Ze: We have. The host quipped, It must be inconvenient to disclose them. How about we Yuan Ze continued directly, Theres nothing inconvenient about it. Ill share it with everyone. Host: She had a hunch that things werent good. Yuan Ze maintained his perfect gentleman tone while speaking derisive words, When facing Proud Flower Kim, just screwing him over will do the job. Host: This old lady just knew that she shouldnt have learned Chinese! Were these words that she could f*cking translate?! As soon as the words Proud Flower Kim came out, Kim Sung-hyun instantly gave off a murderous aura! There were many players off-stage who wanted to laugh, but didnt dare to. This demeaning title Proud Flower Kim was the eternal pain that lingered at the bottom of God Kims heart. As an ADC who played hugely squishy heroes, Kim Sung-hyun required the full protection of his team in order to play out tons of DPS and reverse the game situation. However, in FTW that year, all his teammates were bug-like existences who didnt need to wait for their marksman to develop in the late game before already winning the game. Kim Sung-hyun was unable to play out his full strength and was extremely angry. Yuan Ze felt sorry for him and promised to help him think of a solution. So, during the trash talk session before the game, God Yuan spoke these words very reasonably, Everyone, please dont take pity on our teams proud flower and ravage him to your hearts content. Who is this proud flower? Our ADC, hey. Yes, the one who looks the most like a flower. Close isnt the proud flower. Dont mess with him, you might end up having the tables turned on you. How that game had gone was already long forgotten, but this trash talk was something that everyone remembered. Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun could provoke each other to such an extent for a performance match; this was enough to show how strong the fiery scent of gunpowder was between them. The scent of gunpowder was no big deal. Matches were more fun this way. Everyones mood was high, and it was as though this wasnt just a performance game, but rather the scene of the global finals! BP went quickly. The two teams were too familiar with each other and werent polite as they put their opponents ace talents in the ban position, preventing them from dominating the entire court. In fact, Kim Sung-hyun and Yuan Ze hadnt been targeted much. The ace players in a strong team werent afraid of being targeted. There were six positions in total, and even if the ban positions were all filled up with the talents they were strong at, the ones that were left would still be enough for them to play well with. Whats more, their teammates werent easy targets, either. Take Gary as an example. Calling him Crazy Old G wasnt an exaggeration. If all the ban positions were used on Yuan Ze, then his thief could still slaughter their opponents until they went into seclusion. This was the difference between Close versus Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun. The latter two had teammates, while the former worked alone even in team games. Perhaps it was because theyd spoken too much trash talk before the start of the game. Two minutes after the match began, a fight broke out in the mid-lane! Gary had taken the berserker thief, and his rhythm in the early stage was so fast that he forced Pro to withdraw behind the tower and lose two soldiers. Pros mid-lane was pressured, but their jungler wasnt anxious, taking advantage of the berserker thiefs arrogance to sneak into L&Ps jungle area and steal two jungle monsters. This area was close to the top-lane, and Yuan Zes sense of smell was extremely keen. He flew over to explore the grassy area and managed to hit Pros jungler. Awesome! Wei Xiao exclaimed quietly. Although he disliked Yuan Ze, he had to respect Yuan Zes strength, especially after theyd fought in the training match before. Wei Xiao could still remember that strong, oppressive force. First Blood! Yuan Ze killed Pros jungler on his own and took down first blood! Chen Feng sneered from his seat behind them, He even dared to go for Marshals area. Pros jungler is still too tender. Tang Chen laughed, No rush, Pro has always been better in the later stages. Indeed. A team with a marksman as the core was bound to be weaker in the early stage. Pros jungler was a famous toolman who didnt rob resources, didnt mess up the teams rhythm, and was extremely stable. Although the top-laner couldnt pressure Yuan Ze, it still wasnt to the stage where Yuan Ze could do a tower dive, and he could still pull him back slightly. The middle lane suffered a bit of a loss, but their bottom lane was in a good situation. Kim Sung-hyuns ADC was by no means the type of marksman who relied solely on the late stage. His experience in FTW had made him particularly focused in the early stages. Were they kidding? If he wasnt able to start killing in the early stages, his beastly teammates simply wouldnt let him have a later stage, okay?! So, Kim Sung-hyun, along with his own support, hammered the L&P marksman into a little shrimp. The commentator praised Kim Sung-hyun exaggeratedly, making listening to Chen Feng the better option, If Old G doesnt go help, L&P will lose a tower. It was as he said. One minute later, the first tower in L&Ps bottom lane exploded, and there was suddenly a gap in the canyon. Wei Xiao stared at the big screen and said, Yuan Ze is switching lanes! Chen Feng: Changing lanes at this time is irrational. Their tower had already been lost, so Yuan Ze going over now would be useless. It was better to continue developing in the top lane. Wei Xiao shook his head, But he can restrain Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran. Chen Feng was stunned. Lu Feng glanced at Wei Xiao out of the corner of his eye. The situation in the canyon changed abruptly. Yuan Ze went to the bottom lane from the top lane and didnt retreat even after he encountered Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran together. In the situation where he didnt have the protection of a tower, he attacked both of them himself! The whole scene exploded, Holy shit! Is Marshal this crazy?! In the eyes of countless professional players, this action was tantamount to death. Were they kidding? Kim Sung-hyun, who was protected behind the paladin, could kill him with three arrows. Wei Xiao didnt blink, Kim Sung-hyun is retreating. His voice had just fallen when Yuan Ze had already finished using a set of skills and sent Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran back to their tower. If Kim Sung-hyun came out at this time, Yuan Ze, who had just used up his skills, could easily be taken down, but Kim Sung-hyun didnt come out Yuan Zes actions had been too calculating. His one against two attack was too brazen, and he acted as though he had thousands of troops behind him, forcing Kim Sung-hyun to retreat. Kim Sung-hyun indeed had some reservations. He couldnt find Old G on the map, and Yuan Ze was acting so aggressive. According to L&Ps style, there would be a Gary hidden somewhere behind him. As long as Kim Sung-hyun moved forward slightly, he would be a dead Kim. However there was nobody behind Yuan Ze. Gary took the mid-laner with him and went to the top lane at the same time, going three against one to kill Pros top-laner and protecting the top lane tower at the same time! This operation ushered in a wave of cheers across the whole scene, Beautiful! The audience had an omniscient view and could see more, but even if they could see it, they wouldnt have had the confidence to do it. Yuan Zes determination and bravery, and the perfect cooperation in L&P created a situation in which it wouldnt be Pros top-laner who toppled but Yuan Ze instead if there had been even the slightest mistake! A small difference was like a distance of a thousand miles. In a close fight between equals, even a millisecond mattered! It was a performance match, but both teams played unreservedly. Kim Sung-hyun had been tricked once by Yuan Ze, but he quickly followed up with a counterattack and took down L&Ps mid-laner while taking down a mid-lane tower and returning back to the city! For a full forty minutes, Wei Xiao watched so intently he forgot to blink. The youth who normally had a smile hanging from the corner of his lips was fully absorbed in the duel on the screen. This was a war without gunpowder or smoke, a duel fought without bloodshed, but this insubstantial canyon was loaded with everyones powerful fighting spirit. Each blade and each shot. Each stab and arrow. The brilliance and splendor made ones blood boil with excitement! A real team competition involved trusting ones back to others, an exchange of trust. It was arriving at a powerful tacit understanding within the team that didnt require speaking! Teammates, team. Sacrifice, revenge. This was the unique charm of this ten person battlefield! The fight was still in full swing forty minutes later. Both sides had equal strength, and the two sides kept ending up in a deadlock. However, the final battle broke out in the dragon pit. This back and forth battle that lasted around five minutes made the scalps of everyone present go numb. Everyone had already developed to the extreme, and every hero had reached their pinnacle state. Regardless of whether it was L&P or Pro, they had all put into play everything they could think of, and they had done it all! Without reservation, a desperate fight to the end, all for the sake of one wordCC Victory! Both sides supports fell. The mid-laners fell. The junglers fell. Pros top-laner was killed off by Yuan Ze, and L&Ps bottom laner was shot down by Kim Sung-hyun. In the empty canyon, only Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun were left. In this kind of situation reasonably speaking, Kim Sung-hyun was as good as dead. However, Yuan Ze only had one tenth of his health bar left, while Kim Sung-hyun still had a piece of resurrection armor. Without even a millisecond of delay, Yuan Ze pushed to the limit and pierced Kim Sung-hyun, but Kim Sung-hyun shot Yuan Ze with an arrow and then stood up again after resurrecting. In the grand canyon, only Kim Sung-hyun was left, but Victory! L&P won! L&P, who were all dead, had actually won the game. Yuan Ze took off his headphones and said modestly, An unequal contest brings no honor to the victor. At the very end, it had been L&Ps super soldiers who had pushed all the way to Pros resurrection crystal! Glory was a MOBA game. Killing was secondary; the prerequisite for victory was to take down the enemys crystal. Yuan Zes ruthlessness lay in the fact that hed created the conditions for his own line of soldiers to advance even before starting the last wave of team fights. So, even if they lost the group fight, even if Kim Sung-hyun remained standing at the end, it would be L&P who won the game! At this moment. Everyone at the scene had these words in their heartsCC Old dog, your heart is really dirty! Losing was losing. Pro didnt get angry. It was true that their skills had been inferior. Their top-laner hadnt thought of controlling the soldiers ahead of time. This wasnt L&Ps luck. They had won through the details of the game. Both sides shook hands, and Kim Sung-hyun stared at Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze smiled. Kim Sung-hyun: You can waive the live broadcast, but dont forget the shit. Ill be waiting. Yuan Ze: These words were caught by the microphone, and everyone who understood them burst out into laughter. Oh, indeed. God Kim had only said to forget about the live broadcast, but he never said there would be no eating shit. Little Ning laughed until his stomach hurt, Our God Kim is a good and proper cold and aloof flower, but why does every other sentence This was also one of Kim Sung-hyuns characteristics. He was very polite when he spoke in Korean, but he couldnt do without shit and pee once he started speaking in Chinese. Chen Feng spoke darkly, Do you know who taught Kim Sung-hyun Chinese? Little Ning: Chen Feng: Indeed, it was Yuan Ze. This harm is all self-inflicted! This 5v5 performance match could be described as brilliant. Everyone was all impassioned from watching, and they expressed that one match was not enough. They wanted to have another one! The competition committee had already made preparations. After the host came up onto the stage, she stated, Next up is the doubles performance match. Everyone booed. It was obvious that this wasnt exciting enough. The host gave a mysterious smile and added, The doubles match participants will be picked by the winner from the 5v5 game. One sentence was enough to mobilize everyones mood. What did this mean? There was no need to explain too much. Yuan Ze returned to the stage, and the host asked him, God Yuan who would you like to choose as a teammate for the doubles match? Indeed. In the upcoming doubles match, the L&P whod won the 5v5 game would be the challenger, and the candidate theyd pushed out was the MVP Yuan Ze. He could choose one of his teammates to form a team or choose a teammate from another team. At this time, the entire scene was boiling once again. The competition committee really knew how to set things up! Making a performance match this tricky was the way to make things exciting! Yuan Ze held the microphone and scanned the whole room before slowly pronouncing one nameCC Quiet. The entire scene was in an uproar! Who was this? Who was Quiet? Everyone had thoughts about who Yuan Ze would choose. For example, Close. For example, Kim Sung-hyun, or maybe even his own Old G, but who was Quiet? Dont mention how everyone was confused. The people from FTW were also stupefied. Lu Feng looked at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was not panicked or anxious. He stood up, then reached the stage with a few steps. The youth was tall, with long legs. Wearing the black FTW team uniform, his pale face looked quiet and elegant beneath the dazzling lights. However, his eyes were completely divorced from the word quiet, and they were full of wanton flamboyance. Hello everyone, I am FTW.Quiet. A newcomer who showed no stage fright and even seemed eager for the chance to fight. Even those who didnt know who he was couldnt help but take a fresh look at him at this moment. Those with sharp eyes could already seeCC Isnt this the kid Marshal invited when he came in. Ah, its FTWs top-laner! Marshal is serious? Does he want to be teammates with him that much? Wei Xiao finished his self-introduction and looked at Yuan Ze. He spoke in English, God Yuan, arent you afraid that Ill screw you over? Those who knew what had taken place between the two previously were instantly very excited! This kid, there was something to him! Yuan Ze smiled like a fox, Will you screw me over? No. Wei Xiaos voice wasnt light, but it wasnt heavy either. I never screw my teammates over, even when my teammates arent human. giant shout out to my awesome editors <3 Chapter 39: Wei Xiao: I choose Close. Shit, he really dared to say it! The entire audience followed suit and grew excited. The audience in the banquet hall was full of professional players, some of whom were famous. They understood Marshal better than the fans did, and they also understood more about the value of the Temple of Glory. For Marshal to be listed in the Temple of Glory, there was no doubting his strength. When facing the strong, many people would become nervous and afraid. This was human nature. It was understandable, but it wasnt appreciated. It was different with Wei Xiao. He wasnt afraid or nervous, and could even dig a trap for Old Thief Yuan and launch a perfect verbal attack. Powerful! No matter what his technical abilities were like, his mentality was very strong! Yuan Ze was a pure sadist through and through. The stronger his opponent was, the more interested he was. If Wei Xiao quailed, then he would forget who this person was at any minute. However, not only did Wei Xiao not back down, he could always surprise him with a counterattack. Yuan Ze liked this child and had a very sincere appreciation for him. The host was really sad. Was the e-sports circle all so flashy? One person after another had no filter over their mouths and really dared to say whatever they wanted to! Fortunately, she didnt have to translate this time. Everyone had understood. The host tried to forcibly soften up the atmosphere, In that case, please pick your opponents. Will Marshal choose? The opponents could be picked from any doubles team that had registered in professional competitions. Yuan Ze reverted back to being a gentleman again, Let the kid choose. Wei Xiao wasnt polite and accepted the button that the host handed over. This doubles performance match was already full of drama. First, Yuan Ze had selected his teammate, and then it was Wei Xiao who picked an opponent. After layer upon layer of unexpected occurrences, everyones expectations had already been roused to the highest peak! The opening game was an explosive 5v5, followed by a dramatic doubles match. These opening games were really great! Before long, the names that scrolled across the screen stopped, and the selected opponent appeared. It wasnt Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, nor was it Asleep and Cong Yi from China. However, the two names that floated on the screen werent unfamiliarCCSK.Ali, SK.Ayu. This Carp combo was the new rising star of the doubles competition. SK was a new South Korean team. They focused on the doubles competition and were eager to achieve results. Although this group hadnt officially participated in the global competitions, they had the immortal partners Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran in their domestic competition zone, and theyd honed their skills significantly under them. Pro was more focused on obtaining the top spot in the team competition this year, so they had relaxed their attention on the doubles. Since SK, as a brother team in the same competition zone, wanted to fight for recognition in the doubles competition, Pro was willing to help. So, even though Ali and Ayu werent sufficiently experienced in big competitions, there was no doubt that they were very strong. Their strength was probably higher than that of last years doubles runner up. Yuan Ze laughed, Youre really quite lucky. To be able to draw out a pair who were almost equal to drawing Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran. Wei Xiao glanced at him, Scared? Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao didnt give him a chance to open his mouth and speak, Get offstage if youre scared. Ill change partners. Yuan Ze looked at Lu Feng seated off-stage from the corner of his eye and said in a low voice, Your captain isnt good at doubles. Wei Xiao tsked, Theres nothing my captain isnt good at! Yuan Ze didnt say anything else. He shook his head and said, Come on, the game is going to start. The four people took their seats and entered the ban & pick stage. There were also six ban positions in a doubles competition. This wasnt just for the sake of targeting the opponent, but also so that some talents that were overpowered in the current version of the game could be banned, saving everyone from suffering if they werent able to snatch it up. The commentator finally became aware of a problem. If I remember correctly, Quiet is also a top-lane, right? Yes, the China competition zone FTWs new top-laner. As we all know, Marshal only plays top-lane heroes. Regardless of whether it was team competitions, doubles, or even the singles competition he had participated in three years ago, he used top-lane heroes. Yuan Ze had a famous quote, The top lane is a faith. Using other talents is insincere, like cheating. Later, Gary exposed the truth after drinking, Oh, our captain cant play other positions. To be honest, I saw him take the shadow thief once. Tsk tsk tsk, it wasnt like cheating, it was more like domestic violence, yes, being on the receiving end! In any case, no matter what the truth was, Marshal only used top lane heroesCCOld Dog Yuan wanted his dignity, and he wouldnt shame himself in front of over 100 of his colleagues. So, that led to the problem Commentator A: Its not that you cant play a doubles game with two top-laners, but the win rate isnt high that way. A doubles match depended on cooperation. Using heroes with different positions could play out a better effect. Commentator B: After all, its a performance match. Winning or losing isnt important as long as its fun to watch. As soon as these words came out, the people from the China competition zone who understood the truth all expressed, Ha-ha. Winning or losing didnt matter? Did you take a look at who was sitting up on the stage! That was the little beast who picked fights with half the Glory circle and would love dearly to stick the word Victory on his forehead! How could he concede defeat! Commentator A: Well Quiet took the shadow thief. Commentator B: He isnt taking it for God Yuan to play, right? Commentator A: God Yuans shadow thief Old Gs drunken words were still fresh in everyones memories. Commentator B: He locked it! FTWs new top-laner will be using it! Not only were the commentators surprised, most of the players in the banquet hall were also surprised. The shadow thief was a hero that was practically linked up with Close. Who at the scene had never thought of competing in the individual competition? However, what was the use of thinking about it? Just look at the great demon king that stood at the peak, and they could f*cking only think about it! Countless top players liked the shadow thief. For no other reason, but because the upper limit for this hero was too high, and how it was operated depended on each players own level. How the shadow thief played out was directly related to a players real strength. It was so simple and so rough. Who wouldnt want to use it to prove themselves! Unfortunately, the great demon king in front of them was too fierce. The shadow thief could only become the white moonlight in everyones heartCCsacred and inviolable. One of the contestants off-stage spoke brainlessly, Trying to drive a duck onto a perch? Marshal probably plans to use the divine warrior. As we all know, the divine warrior and shadow thief is an immortal pairing. Quiet is a little miserable; is he going up on stage to act as a foil? Theres no helping it. Who told him to meet Marshal. Tsk tsk tsk, you can mess with anyone, but dont mess with that old dog. Feeling heartache for Quiet. The 3U team who had heard all this: Theres really no need to feel heartache. Ever since Wei Xiao went up on stage, Lu Feng hadnt spoken a single word. Chen Feng looked at him several times. He wanted to say something, but he didnt know where to start. Tang Chen was less careful and opened his mouth to start with, Speaking of which, Old Yuans divine warrior was trained up for Old Lu. Chen Feng: Would you die if you f*cking spoke less? The White Cabbage who loved gossip and didnt know the truth perked up his ears. There was content! And it was a huge piece of ancient gossip! The Gossip Emperors heart was perked up and ready to make trouble. However, Chen Feng avoided the topic and didnt dare to discuss it while the person involved was very calm. Lu Feng could be heard saying, Thats not it. He was actually willing to talk. Top-lane was immediately interested and asked, Is it true? Yuan Ze was the one who said so; he said that the team wanted the two of you to play doubles, and at the time, the combo of divine warrior and shadow thief together was incredibly strong. You were particularly good at the shadow thief in the team, and Yuan Ze Had been the teams top-laner, and practicing the divine warrior was very necessary for his position. Although Yuan Zes divine warrior wasnt weak, at the time, hed been better with the heroes like the death knight and shadow gunner, and the stable divine warrior wasnt something he was good at. Lu Feng paused, then said, Him and I are unable to play doubles together. Tang Chen wanted to ask more, but Chen Feng gave this great fool a push and said, Doubles really depends on a players character. Of course you two werent suited to play together. These words were aimed at smoothing things out. In fact, within the Team of Gods back then, there was nobody who could play doubles. Doubles wasnt like the individual competition where they could just directly let loose and be done with it. A doubles match wasnt like the team competition where there were many places they could coordinate together. Doubles was unique, more unique than the individual competition. It required the two players in the field to have an incomparable compatibility, tacit understanding, and cooperation, and it also required mutual tolerance and trust. In 2020, the champions of the double competition were Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, whod been sleeping together in the same room since junior high. Asleep and Cong Yi, the seed players for the doubles competition in China, grew up together since childhood, and nobody except Cong Yi could understand Asleeps words. Looking at this Carp combo who were up against Yuan Ze and Wei Xiao, the two 17 year old youths had been eating and sleeping together for more than a year in order to develop enough tacit understanding and make their mark in the doubles competition. A doubles match was by no means something that two players could successfully play together at will. That was what everyone thought, until Holy shit, hes motherf*cking strong! Have these two trained together in private before? This kids shadow thief is too powerful! The game began. Yuan Ze took the divine warrior, and Wei Xiao took the shadow thief. The two of them entered the arena, and their momentum was as vibrant as a rainbow! While everyone still believed that Wei Xiaos shadow thief was a foil, he recklessly started up the first kill! The terrain for the doubles match was similar to that of singles, but it had two more corners to the map than the singles one. There were two ancient creatures in the corners that added additional strategies and variables for the doubles match. According to principle, in a doubles competition with a top-laner and a jungler, the top-laner should clear the line of soldiers while the jungler went to control the dragon. After developing for a while they would then start to make trouble. These two werent like that. They were simply poisonous. At the start of the game, the divine warrior stacked up his buffs and charged towards the tower to receive a set of skills from Ali. Ali was very cautious and made a tactical retreat, wanting to avoid being attacked, but who couldve known that the divine warrior wouldnt retreat? Instead, it advanced and directly absorbed the damage from the opposing sides defensive tower. Just as he was sending himself to die beneath the tower, a red light flashed by. The shadow thiefs stealthy and sudden attack with a set of skills took away Alis life! First blood appeared just like that. The divine warrior and shadow thief retreated from the defensive tower at the same time. They had been fierce when they attacked and silent when they retreated. The only one who toppled was SKs Ali! This round of cooperation left the audience stunned. It took the commentator a while before they could say, Very, very tacit. Commentator B: The divine warrior did its absolute limit in resisting the tower, but if the shadow thief was even one second slower, he wouldve died beneath the tower. Commentator A: The last hit from the tower fell on the shadow thiefs body. His calculations were precise! After that, it became even more exciting. Everyone had thought wrongly. How was this shadow thief a foil? This was clearly his home court! The real foil was Yuan Zes divine warrior. He was a strong and aggressive player, but once he changed his style, he was able to create flourishes with the divine warrior that was the epitome of stability. Why was the divine warrior and shadow thief such an immortal pairing in a doubles competition? It was because there was a natural fit between these two talents. The shadow thief could strike suddenly, like a sharp blade pulled out of its sheath. The divine warrior had a high fault tolerance rate and could clear away all obstacles for that sharp blade. One to launch sudden attacks, one to guard the rear, it was a natural mutual dependency! Soon, there was someone who couldnt help saying, This shadow thief was it personally trained up by Close? Doesnt seem like it, I always feel that theres something different about it. They couldnt see it, but those who were familiar with Close could understand the difference at a glance. On the Pro side. Kim Sung-hyun spoke to the man beside him, No wonder Yuan Ze is trying so desperately to pry him out. Seated to his left was a cold and indifferent-eyed man. At first glance, it seemed that his facial features were flat, but after looking for a long time, he seemed to have a certain charm. His low-key, calm temperament made it easy to forget him, but he should definitely not be ignored. This was Pros captain, the support position, Li Heran. Li Heran replied, Hes a very compatible player. Kim Sung-hyun: Its rare to see such a strong one. The universal criteria for evaluating a player was based on the strength of the individual, while the other criteria was their compatibility levels, which was what every strong team yearned for. Most support players were highly compatible and could work with their teammates, coordinate with the team, and in most cases, integrate the entire team together. However, support positions tended to be generally quite weak when it came to their personal strength. It wasnt that they werent good, it was just that they had different priorities. Strength and compatibility were two criteria that tended to diverge. Strong players were generally not very compatible with others, while those who could be perfectly compatible with others were generally not very strong. Looking at the entire global Glory circle, there was only one person who met these two criteria and had reached the peak. FTWs former captain. The man whod ascended to the Temple of Glory as a support position and created countless myths. And now, another one had shown up FTWs Quiet. A little lunatic whod just entered the professional circle, yet played like a little maniac in the canyonCC It appeared disorderly and reckless, but in fact, every step was calculated, and his moves were defensive everywhere. It was that extreme, yet just as harmonious. It left people amazed. This was also the difference between Quiet and Close. One gave the home team momentum, while the other was absolute control. It wasnt the same. There was no suspense about the outcome of the game. Yuan Ze and Wei Xiao won. It wasnt that Ali and Ayu werent strong, but they were unable to play out their real strength from beginning to end. The cooperation between Yuan Ze and Wei Xiao was much better than theyd expected. The operations of the shadow thief broke through their cognition again and again. In the early stages, their mentality grew unstable, and it was practically shattered in the later stages. Kim Sung-hyun could see it clearly, These two kids are still inexperienced. It wasnt that they couldnt beat them, but that theyd been beaten into a daze. In the final analysis, Yuan Ze and Wei Xiao were a temporary team. They werent familiar with each other beforehand, and no matter how talented they were, they shouldnt have been able to win so easily. The main reason for their victory was that the Carp combos mentality had collapsed and they couldnt hold up. If it had been Kim Sung-hyun oh, if it had been Asleep and Cong Yi, it wouldnt have been to the point where theyd lose to this temporary group. No matter what the reasons were, winning was a fact. What made people even more convinced was that this Quiet really had some skills! In this match, the shadow thief had shown off to the heavens and won everyone over. Among other things, he was entitled to receive Marshals invitation and even more qualified to refuse him. Theyd all originally thought that FTW would have a bad year this year, but unexpectedly, theyd obtained fresh blood, and it was fresh blood that wouldnt be overshadowed by Closes glory! Was this the end of the performance matches? Obviously not. The host came up to the stage again, congratulating the victors while comforting the defeated team. Then, she said, Next is the last part of the program. Sure enough Theyd already had 5v5 and doubles. They couldnt leave out the individual match! But, this time, the competition committee had decided to shock them all the way to the end, and they all heard the host continue, The winner of the doubles competition can choose the next match. This opportunity fell into Wei Xiaos hands, because Yuan Ze had already chosen once. Wei Xiao could choose to find a teammate and continue to play doubles, or choose an opponent and have a brilliant solo match. After hearing this rule, everyone who knew Little Lunatic Wei all fell silent: There was no getting away from it The little lunatic wanted to solo with Lu Feng even in his dreams. How could he let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Who couldve known that Wei Xiao would pick up the microphone and say, I pick Close. I want to invite him to be my teammate. He gave up the chance of a solo match and chose to play another doubles match, this time with Close! Chapter 40: Doubles Competition Everyone at the scene was boiling with excitement, Yes, yes! Quiets really fierce! This is clearly him expressing that he doesnt accept Marshal! Everyone had heard the conversation between Wei Xiao and Yuan Ze earlier. Yuan Ze had said that his captain couldnt play doubles, and Wei Xiao had said that there wasnt anything his captain wasnt good at. At this moment, he was seizing the opportunity to prove it right away! With such an indisputably confrontational tone, this young man clearly had backbone and spirit! Regarding Close, people both loved and hated him. They didnt like to meet him in the singles, but they loved watching him play. For him to come up on stage, regardless of whether it was for a solo match or doubles, was enough to make everyone happy. If they just so happened to draw Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran in the doubles match Ah, taking his new teammate to crush his old one would be the best! Yuan Ze spoke quietly to Wei Xiao before stepping off the stage, You will regret it. Wei Xiao was just about to open his mouth to reply, but Yuan Ze had already left. He spoke the words to himself internally: Ill definitely never regret it! Off-stage. Chen Feng pushed Lu Feng lightly, Little Lunatic Wei is waiting for you. Lu Feng came back to his senses and frowned. Chen Feng knew what he was worried about and said, Its fine, its just a performance match. Lu Feng: Mm. He got up, walked through the aisles and came to the brightly lit stage. From his first match at the age of 17 until now, he had stood at that place in the limelight countless times. There had been team competitions in the global finals and individual competitions in the global finals; he had experienced many peak events that made professional players so nervous their arms and legs went numb. Hed been nervous before, excited as well, but not uneasy. This time, it was clearly just a doubles performance match, but Lu Feng experienced the feeling of uneasiness. Chen Fengs left hand was against his lips as he bit his nails. Tang Chen knew about this bad habit of his where he would bite his nails whenever he was nervous, Its just a performance match. Chen Feng was really defeated by his obliviousness, Close cares too much about Wei Xiao. Tang Chen: Its a kid that he brought back with much difficulty. Of course he has to care. Chen Feng smacked the back of his head, Cant you grow some f*cking brains! Bai Cais ears were perked up super high. He asked curiously, Speaking of which, it seems that the captain has never played in a doubles match before. Chen Feng closed his eyes, Its already like that for 5v5. How can he play in a doubles game? Bai Cai was stunned. Ning Zhehan was a newcomer and understood even less, What do you mean? Yue Wenle sighed and explained to Little Ning, Think about the training match you played in when you first joined the team. Little Ning thought back for a moment and went back into seclusion for an instant, Im such trash. Indeed. In those training matches, his eyes had been filled with the word TRASH in capital letters, packed densely like scrolling comments. Chen Feng sighed, A doubles match relies more on cooperation than in a 5v5 game. Tang Chen wasnt worried, Its fine, there wont be a problem with Little Lunatic Wei. Chen Feng wasnt as optimistic as he was. Solo and doubles were two different things. Doubles and 5v5 were definitely different, but there was a lot of relationship between the two. For example, if they could cooperate well in a doubles match, then it would absolutely not be a problem in 5v5. Another example was that if they couldnt coordinate with each other in the doubles match, then it would become a hidden danger in 5v5. Chen Feng never wanted Close to play doubles with anyone in the team, but he hadnt had time to tell Wei Xiao this. Of course There was a high chance that telling him wouldve been useless. However, he definitely wouldnt have wanted to have the two of them play doubles in this kind of scene, under the attention of so many people! L&P. Gary: Speaking of which, Ive never seen Close play doubles. Yuan Ze looked at the two people on the stage, He cant play doubles. Old G was curious, Why? Have you guys played together before? Yuan Ze: Yes. He controlled the smile at the corner of his lips. There was also someone asking the same question on the Pro side. Kim Sung-hyun sighed, Please dont draw the two of us. Li Heran: Kim Sung-hyun: I dont want to play a doubles game against Close at all. Regardless of whether it was as a teammate or an opponent. In that years FTW, the FTW that was like the sun, this all-around team had been eager to try the doubles competition, just like they had with the team competition and the individual competition. At the time, the coaching team tried desperately to find the right match for the starting line-up. As a result No matter how they paired them up, it was all rotten. Even the support position could end up in a fight with the ADC, and they were really unable to participate in the doubles competition. Later on, Close joined the team. The 17 year old talented player looked cold, but after all, he was still a rookie, and he was a genius who could play in any position. The coaching team was excited, thinking that this newcomer might be able to match up with one of these four hedgehogs and win them a doubles championship. So, the pairing started again. One week later, the coaching staff went into seclusion. To hell with the f*cking doubles, FTW didnt care about that small bonus! Yuan Ze spoke to Gary, When Close and I played doubles, he was only 17 years old. In the first game, I thought to myself, what is this? How could someone of this level enter FTW? Is the coaching team crazy? Gary was surprised, Is Close really not good at doubles? Yuan Ze laughed sarcastically, He did it on purpose. Gary blinked, Why? Whats the point of that? Yuan Ze continued to withhold information, Watch. Youll know soon. As soon as Lu Feng came up, Wei Xiaos entire mental state improved. He gave Lu Feng the right to draw opponents right away. Lu Feng looked at him, You do it. Quiet, who refused to give way when faced with Yuan Ze, was very humble now, Youre luckier than I am. As soon as he said this, all the players off-stage were a little puzzled. Quiets luck had been pretty good last time, and hed gotten Ali and Ayu. They were strong enough, but their experience was insufficient, which was why he and Yuan Ze had had a chance to win. Wei Xiaos next sentence was, Maybe if you do it, we can draw the doubles champion from last year. Everyone: Alright, your definition of lucky isnt the same as ours. Lu Feng didnt say anything else. He accepted the button and pressed it. Wei Xiao looked eagerly at the big screen Kim Sung-hyun grabbed Li Herans arm, Dont be me, dont be me, dont be me Li Heran: Kim Sung-hyun: F*ck! The two names on the big screenCCPro.Kim Sung-hyun, Pro.Li Heran. Wei Xiao spoke in surprise, Youre really lucky! Hed really managed to draw the doubles champions from last year! Off-stage, Chen Feng slapped Tang Chens leg. Tang Chen: Ow. Chen Feng: Hurry up and find the network cable and pull it out for me! Everyone in FTW: Was that necessary? Little Lunatic Wei, who wasnt even afraid of soloing with the great demon king, would be afraid of playing a doubles game with the captain? Kim Sung-hyun came up onto the stage with the support of his own milk dad. Pros teammates were also wondering about it, Is Close so strong in doubles? Our vice-captain doesnt he love to abuse thieves? Wake up, thats Closes thief. In fact, theyd thought wrong. Kim Sung-hyun wasnt afraid of the shadow thief, and he wasnt afraid of Closes shadow thief. He just didnt want to play this game, and it was purely that he had a psychological shadow Sitting in front of the computer, without the microphones, Wei Xiao spoke to Lu Feng, Captain, you take the shadow thief. Lu Feng didnt say anything and quietly worked on checking over his equipment. Wei Xiao continued, Yuan Ze actually said that you cant play doubles! Lu Fengs hands paused slightly on the keyboard. Wei Xiao continued angrily, Ill play the divine warrior. Dont worry, Ill protect you well! He had experienced a lot from the previous match, and the doubles competition was very interesting. He and Yuan Ze could win even if they were tearing it up over the headsets, so he and the captain must be able cooperate as well. It had to be known that he was the one who knew Close the best. He would definitely be able to cooperate with the divine warrior! All the way until the start of the fight, Wei Xiao was still very confident. Although he had almost never played doubles with Lu Feng, he was very familiar with Lu Fengs shadow thief, and he was very confident with the divine warrior. Additionally, he had the experience from the 5v5 training matches, and he felt that he could play out perfect cooperation with Lu Feng. So what if the opposite side held Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran? So what if they slept in the same room? Had they ever cuddled together and slept together for 24 hours?! Ha, scum! These brain circuits that Wei Xiaoxiao had were really amazing. When they picked heroes, Lu Feng finally spoke up, You play the shadow thief. Ill take the divine warrior. Wei Xiao replied immediately, That wont do. Youre the jungler, and Im the top-laner. Well have to cooperate countless times in the future! Lu Feng: . Although Wei Xiao was caught up in the moment, he could still sense that Lu Feng was in rather low spirits, Captain? Lu Feng locked in the shadow thief, You take the divine warrior, then. Wei Xiao: Kay! Lu Feng glanced at the youth beside him out of the corner of his eyes, and his fingers trembled almost imperceptibly on the keyboard. He wanted Wei Xiao to take the shadow thief, but this wasnt the right time. He hadnt yet informed the team about the change in positions, and if he suggested it too hastily, it might cause confusion in the FTW team. It was just a performance match, it was fine. With this in mind, Lu Feng couldnt help recalling the past. No more, no more, dont ask me to play doubles with Close. Coach, Im begging you, even having me eat shit is better than playing doubles with him, okay?! Ill practice with the divine warrior. Isnt it enough to train? Just dont have me team up with little Close for doubles again. Theres no way to play. Lu Feng was very resistant to the doubles competition. Yuan Ze had spoken correctly. He really couldnt play doubles. Because Wei Xiao: Captain, were starting. Mm. Lu Feng focused his mind on the canyon. Maybe things would be different. The match began. There was no surprise with the line ups. Wei Xiao took the divine warrior, and Lu Feng took the shadow thief. The line up was exactly the same as the previous match, but the people playing the heroes had changed. Kim Sung-hyun took a frost hunter, and Li Heran used the elemental shaman. Everyone was very much looking forward to this match. Wei Xiao was so flamboyant when playing with outsiders, how could he not show off all the way to the heavens when playing with his own captain? Perhaps this years doubles would belong to someone different! With this thought, it became even more exciting! However 10 minutes into the game, the audience was very disappointed. No, that wasnt quite right. Even the commentators couldnt find anything to praise. Commentator A: This it seems that they arent quite cooperating well? Commentator B: The divine warrior is playing very well, but Closes shadow thief seems to be a little He didnt dare to say that it wasnt fierce enough, because Lu Fengs shadow thief was famous for its fierceness. How fierce was it? It was to the point where his opponents would want to surrender directly when they saw him take the shadow thief. But now Old G was dismayed, Whats going on with Close? He got seen through by that noob? Yuan Ze: Just watch. The FTW side was even more silent. Chen Feng stared fixedly at the screen, nervously biting his nails. Tang Chen was a little uneasy due to the atmosphere, Hey Old Lu, today Chen Feng: Shut up! Tang Chen: In the arena, Kim Sung-hyun said to Li Heran, Ah, hurry up and push to win. I dont want to see this anymore. Li Heran whiz-whiz-whizzed and inserted four totems for him, making it so that the handsome frost hunter looked like a hornets nest that nobody dared provoke, Go. Kim Sung-hyun sighed, So, thats why I said, I dont like to play doubles with Close He hadnt finished speaking when he suddenly cursed, Damn it, Im done for! Outsiders could see it very clearly. How could Wei Xiao, who was teamed up with Lu Feng, not sense it? He endured for a full seven minutes before he couldnt help it anymore, Captain are you feeling unwell? It was too strange. Todays shadow thief was too strange! It wasnt that it wasnt amazing, and it wasnt that it wasnt strong, but it wasnt fierce enough. The aura that belonged to Close didnt even show its head the tiniest bit. Lu Feng didnt say anything. Wei Xiao couldnt help but say, If youre not feeling well Lu Feng spoke, and his voice was a little hoarse, No. Wei Xiao: Then Lu Feng paused, then spoke quietly, Do you want to know why Yuan Ze said that I cant play doubles? Wei Xiao paused. Lu Feng: Watch. In the next moment, the entire scene fell silent. Li Herans headset was full of Kim Sung-hyuns shrill screams, F*ck f*ck f*ck, captain, save me, captain, hurry and save me ahhhhh! If the first part of the match made the audience drowsy, then the second half of the match made them feel as nervous as if theyd also been trapped in the narrow canyon. Commentator A: This Commentator Bs mouth was wide open: Terrible. Each scene that appeared on the scene could only be described as terrible. The shadow thief that was so quiet it was clumsy in the first half instantly restored its presence of absolute control. It seemed as though he didnt have any teammates, as though he was in an empty canyon. The crimson blade was locked closely on the enemys life and nothing else. Off-stage, Yuan Ze sneered, Do you see it? This is the Close in doubles. An absolute control over the field, this terrifying oppressive force pressured not only the opponent, but also his teammate. Gary was stunned, Shit, I feel a little heartache for Quiet. Those who had never played Glory before would only think that this shadow thief was too amazing, so amazing that it seemed he was the only one in the canyon filled with four people. Only those who knew Glory could feel this terrible pressure even across the screen. As an opponent, one wouldnt want to run into such an enemy. As a teammate, one wouldnt want to have such a partner. Close wasnt suitable for doubles. It wasnt that he didnt play well, but that he played too well. Back then, the Team of Gods starting lineup, the four men who were now listed in the Temple of Glory, couldnt cooperate and keep up with him. Let alone anyone else. Chapter 41: Wei Xiao: Youre explosively strong, okay! Nine light arcs burst out in the canyon, the gorgeous light shocking everyone present. Even though everyone knew that the special effects for nine light arcs was extraordinary, actually seeing it still made them suck in a breath. There must be a Close fan in Glorys development team. The championship skin was so beautiful! The commentators seized this opportunity to quickly praise and exaggerate, saving the strange atmosphere that had taken over the doubles match. In the canyon, Kim Sung-hyuns squishy frost hunter seemed to have seen the scythe of death. The range of the light arcs was too wide, and Kim Sung-hyun had no way to hide. Fortunately, Li Heran was as steady as a rock, smashing down a set of totems that was barely enough to heal Kim Sung-hyun. The contestants all stared fixedly at the scene, and their thoughts were all focused on If they were a shadow thief, would they be able to do this? If they were the frost hunter, would they be able to retreat in time to minimize the damage? If they were the shaman, would they be able to have that kind of hand speed and brain, throwing down such a complicated set of totem moves around the frost hunter? Oh, if they were the divine warrior, they could definitely be as dazed as he was right now. It was difficult for the commentators to say anything too substantive, but it didnt keep each team from analyzing amongst themselves in low voices. On the L&P side, Yuan Ze said, So, this is why I said that Lu Feng isnt suited for doubles. At this point, everyone understood the meaning behind his words. The mechanism behind the doubles match had doomed Lu Feng to be unsuitable for them. As it was mentioned before, doubles was different from singles and 5v5. It was too unique. This kind of solitude where two people were twisted together to form a rope was not the same as one persons awesomeness. In a 5v5, certain players individual strengths might be higher than the teams average level, but this generally wouldnt be a problem. Instead, that person would become the core, a trump card and the pillar that the entire team relied on. For example, Pros Kim Sung-hyun. Because of his strong personal strength, the team took the route of four protecting one, and everyone cooperated with him in order to win the game with ease. It was different with doubles. There were only two people. If one of them was too outstanding, the other would feel a great psychological pressure. Doubles matches werent as clear as a 5v5 in terms of responsibilities, about which hero went on what lane and which position they needed to fill. 5v5 had a clear division of labor where if everyone tried their best to do their job well, half the game was already won. It wasnt so clear in a doubles match. The mechanism behind doubles ensured that it would be fast paced, where both sides came up to exchange health. The smaller jungle area on both sides was a place where conflict would break out, and just like in the singles games, those who rolled up their sleeves and fought would be king. The difference was that in the singles game, one only had to rush in on their own, but in doubles, it was two people. In a situation where there was no cooperation, it would be like fighting one against two. Sadly, fighting one against two in a doubles match wouldnt be enough to win the game. So, the one who couldnt keep up would feel a strong sense of frustration, as though they were redundant, dragging their feet, and therefore become the root cause for losing the game. This type of psychological pressure was just the beginning of the vicious cycle. Seeing that they were lagging behind, they would try their best to keep up, but the more they wanted to catch up, the less they were able to do so. This wasnt something they could make up for with instructions over a headset. The shadow thief focused on finding an opportunity to release a series of moves, but this opening often only lasted 0.1 seconds. Communicating by voice wasnt fast enough to convey this tacit understanding. Like this, their mentality would gradually collapse. Yuan Ze glanced at the divine warrior on the screen and said, Thats why I said, dont play doubles with Close. Four years ago, they had their first doubles match. Yuan Ze had already seen Closes strength. He wanted to suppress this talented kid, but instead. he was the one who was suppressed. At the time, hed used a death knight, and Close had used a berserker thief. Relatively speaking, a berserker thief was very good at cooperation. Yet as a result, Yuan Zes death knight followed behind him the whole time. When he finally caught up, it was either that Close had already cut down his opponent, or that the other party had already run off. Due to the death knights lack of DPS, the rhythm of the game was broken. After playing for one game, Yuan Ze cursed, Close, do you understand how to f*cking cooperate?! The 16 or 17 year old teenager lowered his eyes, Sorry. Yuan Ze hadnt yet become an old bastard at the time. After scolding him, he felt that hed been too much and softened his tone, Dont rush in alone, wait for me. Close: Okay. So, in the second match, the berserker thief was obviously slower, obviously waiting for the death knight. It waited for him to reach the designated position before rushing forward. However, while he might wait for the death knight, their opponents wouldnt wait. This was an obvious opportunity to escape. The other side wasnt stupid; how could they stand there waiting to be beat up? So Yuan Ze: F*ck! If it was like this, they might as well not cooperate! It was a sense of suffocation that couldnt be verbalized, an unspeakable pain, almost like being trampled onto the ground and ridiculed. In this life, Yuan Ze hated geniuses the most. After this incident, he hated geniuses even more. The birth of this kind of creature was just for the sake of ridiculing normal human beings! Yuan Ze refused to fight with him again no matter what. Later on, the other three people in the team also gave up, and his mentality calmed down again. It wasnt their fault. It was just that Close was too special. His individual combat ability was like a bug, and it wasnt suitable for cooperation with teammates! The coaching team sighed, This kind of talent its hard to find one in a hundred years. Forget it, lets focus on the singles and 5v5. Who wouldve dared think that in 5v5, all the starters in FTW, who were all so proud and arrogant that they wished they could challenge the heavens, all tried their best to cooperate with Close?! To hell with only liking to play in the early stages. With this kind of rhythm, they had no other choice! They could barely make it work with 5v5, but it was really too difficult for doubles. Asking Close to cooperate a little was something they all felt too ashamed to ask for; shit, asking a newbie to stop and wait for them? What about their dignity!? But to let Close let loose and do whatever he wanted? Then they were the ones who became redundant in the doubles matches. It was even more shameful! So To hell with doubles. It was definitely that Close was unsuited. If even they were unable to cooperate with him, then there was absolutely nobody in the entire Glory circle who could. To this end, Yuan Ze also made a statement, If theres anyone who can cooperate with Close in doubles, I will stream eating shit twice! Now look, even Wei Xiao couldnt do it. There was another reason that FTW had thoroughly given up on doubles. It was that they couldnt win. No matter how good Close was, no matter how dominant he was, he couldnt win the game. The mechanism for the doubles competition was very fair. For example, Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran were a pair. The frost hunter dealt damage, and the shaman fed him heals. In the later stage, when the shadow thiefs set of skills attacked them, the frost hunter might end up with no health, but it wouldnt fall to the ground. The shaman could put down a resurrection totem at the last moment, and the two of them would stand up again in an instant. If the totems could be matched up well, and a totem that doubled attack speed was dropped, they could kill a shadow thief, who had no cooldowns left, with just a few arrows. Under normal circumstances, the divine warrior should follow up and connect the skills at the moment that the shadow thief finished dealing damage, interrupting the resurrection totem and ensuring that their opponent died completely, without a chance to turn the tables. Unfortunately, the divine warrior tried its best to rush over, only to meet the deadly arrows of a frost hunter at full health. This was the disconnect. In a doubles match without cooperation, they could only lose. The two players could show off their moves all they liked, but it was simply offering up their heads separately. This was also the reason why Kim Sung-hyun was unwilling to play doubles with Close. These f*cking ups and downs were bad for his heart! He had to watch as his health bar emptied out, had to tell himself to be steady and quickly deal damage Once was alright, but it was like this every single time. Even if he won, he wasnt happy about it! It was because it wasnt his strength that won the game, but the doubles mechanism itself. Thinking about it that way made it even more disgusting. Defeat! There was no doubt about it. Wei Xiao and Lu Feng lost the doubles match. Lu Feng took off his headset and looked at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was in a stunned daze. Lu Feng spoke lightly, The team games wont be like this. In the future, we wont play Wei Xiao dropped the headset and turned his head to look at him. His eyes seemed to be burning, This is what Yuan Ze meant when he said that you cant play doubles? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao didnt suppress his voice at all, Youre explosively strong, okay! Kim Sung-hyun, whod just won the game and came over to shake hands as well as comfort the poor, pitiful little rookie of FTW, whod just heard these words, ??? Wei Xiao spoke excitedly, Old Dog Yuans words really cant be trusted. He just didnt want me to play doubles with you on purpose, how could he be such a dog. He just doesnt want people to be happy! The three words Old Dog Yuan were words that Kim Sung-hyun empathized with deeply, but the words that came after Kim Sung-hyun really wanted to help that old dog explain: Youve misunderstood him. Although Old Yuan is seldom misunderstood, youve really gotten it wrong this time! Wei Xiao was still very excited. Previously, hed only thought that soloing with Lu Feng was very exciting. Hed never ever thought that doubles matches would be this thrilling. It turned out this shadow thief made his scalp numb when it was his opponent, but it made him shiver when it was his teammate! Stimulating, it was too stimulating! This obvious power gap, this visible strength, this natural gap that stood in front of his eyes, all poked perfectly at his heart that was eager to catch up. It was too amazing. Sure enough, Close was always able to surprise him. Wei Xiao, who wasnt quite so interested in 5v5, was now completely burning with passion due to this doubles match. He wanted to play 5v5, he wanted to be teammates with Close. He wanted to watch his sword swing in all directions, and he wanted to sweep down everything in their path with him! No way, he couldnt stand it! Just now, hed been shocked during the entire doubles match and hadnt fully experienced it. Wei Xiao noticed Kim Sung-hyun and immediately said, Again! The God Kim who was already unable to maintain his lofty, cold flower appearance, ! Wei Xiao looked at the time and said, Theres still time. God Kim, lets play another game. Just now Someone held him by the collar. Wei Xiao: Eh He turned around and saw his own captain. There was no expression on Lu Fengs face, but the bright light was reflected in his eyes, like a bonfire in a cold winter night, Lets go. There was a slight uptick in his tone. How could Wei Xiao be willing? He begged, Its not solo, its a doubles match. Its a doubles match with God Kim and God Ran! Lu Feng: Its already finished. Wei Xiao: Lets have another game. Everyone probably wasnt able to see clearly, and God Kim hasnt fought enough, right? God Kim He tried desperately to hint at Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyun: Sorry, hed fought enough, definitely, completely enough! Cough The host who was inexplicably a little redundant came over, Congratulations Kim Sung-hyun hurriedly accepted the microphone, thanked his opponents, thanked his team, thanked the competition committee, all in one go. After saying all that, he didnt even give the host the opportunity to give her summarizing speech, pulling Li Heran with him as he ran off quickly. Wei Xiao: Sigh Dont go! The host was really scared of these players who didnt play cards according to common sense and hurriedly said, Thank you Pro and FTW for the wonderful match. And now, Glory 2021s Winter Training officially begins! With these words, it was impossible to continue fighting. Wei Xiao was very unwilling as he was carried off-stage by his captain. They passed by L&P on the way back to their seats, and Wei Xiao replied to him with, I dont regret it. Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao lowered his voice and said firmly, I will keep up with him, and I dont need him to stop and wait for me. It was a simple sentence, but it stabbed accurately at Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze froze for a moment, then curved his lips and smiledCC Keep up with him. Dont need him to stop and wait. What arrogant hubris, little asshole. Something none of us were able to achieve, do you think you can do it?! Gary only vaguely heard it, Wha? Keep who wait for who? Yuan Ze tilted his head and looked at his own big fool, Gary. Old G: Ah? Yuan Ze: Do you want to win the championship? Old G: Yes! Yuan Ze patted him on the shoulder and smiled like a fox, Go and trade FTWs Quiet into our team, and our win this year will be guaranteed. Gary, who didnt want to be an exchange player, ??? Yuan Ze turned to look at the group from FTW. Wei Xiaos face was unabashedly excited, and it wasnt clear what he was chattering about with his teammates. Lu Feng, whod been in a low mood before going up onto the stage, no longer had the same haze over his eyebrows, and his cold eyes were lit up with sparks. Yuan Ze sighed softlyCC They would have contenders for this years global finals. Facts proved that all of Chen Fengs worries had been superfluous! Sure enough, he still didnt understand Little Lunatic Wei enough. He shouldnt use the psychology of normal players to guess at what this little lunatic would do! After losing the doubles and being suppressed by his own teammate throughout the entire process, Quiet, who the entire audience thought would be miserable, wasnt depressed at all after stepping down. Instead Wei Xiao: Coach, help me review the game when we go back! Chen Feng: Are you f*cking human? Wei Xiao: I feel like I got it a little in the last wave, but my hands couldnt keep up with my brain. Sure enough, Im still not familiar enough with the divine warrior. Chen Feng, as a coach, hadnt even watched the second half of the match carefully! Wei Xiao: The divine warrior has its advantages. If I had used the divine move before the captain started his combo He hadnt finished his words yet when Lu Feng pressed down on the top of his head, Were going back. Wei Xiaos attention was immediately drawn to him, When we go back, lets Lu Feng strode forward, Rest. Wei Xiao followed behind him, Its not solo, its doubles. If God Kim doesnt want to fight, we can look for Asleep. They Lu Feng stopped. Wei Xiao also stopped. Captain? Lu Feng looked back at him, You Wei Xiaos gaze didnt flinch in the slightest. His pair of eyes was pure and warm, filled with a vigorous heat that went straight into a persons heart. Lu Feng felt that his heart had been scalded and lowered his gaze, Dont you feel aggrieved. This was the knot in Lu Fengs heart, and the fundamental reason why he was reluctant to play doubles. CCAggrieved. Everyone whod cooperated with him in doubles games felt aggrieved. He wanted to cooperate with them, but they felt aggrieved. He wanted to win the game, but they felt even more aggrieved. They were clearly teammates, and it was clearly a battlefield for two people, but Lu Feng had never felt that there was someone beside him. He didnt want to push anyone away, and he didnt want to leave anyone behind. But when he looked back, there was always nobody behind him. Glory was a team game. Close had done whatever it took to buy FTW. However, it was a team that had never belonged to him. Wei Xiao blinked, Aggrieved? Lu Feng knew that Wei Xiao didnt feel aggrieved, but he wanted to ask. This was the first time in four years that hed asked this question. And the answer he received was the youths bright smile. I feel quite aggrieved. Wei Xiao hinted at him like crazy, Because you wont accompany me to play a second match! Aaaahhhh, Close was too good at leaving one hanging, he could never get enough! xiin: WX, i love you, youre going to fix all the wounds on my baby Closes heart~ Chapter 42: I feel like he wants to catch me! It was already twelve oclock by the time they returned to their rooms. Wei Xiao followed Lu Feng into the room. Lu Feng looked at him, You shower first? Wei Xiao was currently in high spirits and didnt want to wash up and sleep at all. Captain its only twelve oclock Wei Xiao tried hard to hint at him. Lu Feng: Mm. Its time to sleep. Wei Xiao was unwilling, Theres no night in e-sports! Lu Feng was in a good mood and accompanied him to talk nonsense, Then dont sleep tonight. Wei Xiao: Not sleeping, not sleeping then. Staying up all night was as normal as eating rice. Lu Feng: Mm. You can catch up on sleep during the day and miss the opening of the winter server. Wei Xiao: ! Right, the winter server would open at 1:00 tomorrow afternoon. He had to go in and fight for points! Lu Feng looked at him, Sleeping? Wei Xiao cried, Ah! Sleep, sleep, sleep, Im sleeping, okay? He lay on his back in the bed, sprawled out everywhere. Lu Feng moved his gaze away, Wash up. Wei Xiao was too lazy to get up, You go first. I have something to do. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: Dont worry, Im not playing the game, I His eyes shifted, and he thought of something, I have to tell my girlfriend Ive arrived safely. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiaos act was flawless, Ive been messing around all day and havent had time to contact her. She sent me a lot of messages Cough, the boss was really busy and hadnt looked for him all day. Lu Feng quietly picked up his mobile phone and headed to the bathroom, Then you do what you need to do. Wei Xiao wasnt actually busy with anything, Kay! Lu Feng went to take a bath. Wei Xiao pulled out his cell phone and found his bosss contact information. He hesitated for a long time but didnt send out a message. He was very busy with training and might not be able to spare even an hour for the boss. It was a good thing that the boss hadnt contacted him today. If he really went to find him, then he Ah, Wei Xiao wanted to return the money again. He really wasnt doing right by the boss. Just as he was about to put down his phone, it beeped. Wei Xiao opened it and took a look, then instantly sat up straight. Talk about bad things, and bad things would happen! It was his boss! What to do? Wei Xiao was afraid to open it up and learn that the boss was looking for him to play games! LU: Asleep? Wei Xiao thought for a while and replied, Not yet. If the boss wanted to play games, he could go to Old Bais room and borrow his computer! LU: Im traveling these days and may not be able to play. Wei Xiao was instantly happy. He was really super lucky. He was busy, and his boss was also busy. Great! Its okay, its okay. Wei Xiao replied quickly, Ill take you to rack up points after youre back. LU: Okay. Wei Xiao tried to ask tentatively, So, boss, how long will you be out for? LU: Two or three days. Wei Xiao: That was good, that was good. He could settle down first over the next two or three days, and he would be able to spare an hour to accompany the boss after getting familiar with the rhythm here. Reasonably speaking, theyd dealt with the problem, and the two of them could stop speaking now. They were two grown men. There was nothing to talk about without the game. Who couldve known that LU would send another message? Can I chat with you once in a while? Wei Xiao: ! He quickly took a screenshot and sent it to Bai Cai within the second. Bai Cai didnt reply. Wei Xiao caught his attention with a voice call and continued to type crazily, Old Bai, Old Bai, save me, save me! Bai Cai had only just opened up his precious suitcase and taken out his newly purchased LV pajamas. He was ready to take a hot bath What? Bai Cai casually picked up the phone and pressed it against his shoulder. Wei Xiao lowered his voice and said, Look at your WeChat messages! He was afraid that Lu Feng would hear him. Bai Cai didnt take it seriously. He discovered that he hadnt cut off the tag on his new pajamas and was groping around trying to cut it off, Its the middle of the night, what kind of fuss did you kick up now? Wei Xiao was very anxious, Hurry and look! Its 10,000% urgent! Bai Cai carefully cut off the label while scanning through his cell phone. And then Shit! His hand shook, and he didnt cut the label properly. Instead, he cut a hole in his clothes! Damn it, his newly purchased pajamas! Damn it, his 13,000 yuan! A screenshot appeared on the screen of his mobile phone, followed by Wei Xiaos exuberant chatterCC Its over, its over, Old Bai, Im done for, my boss must be gay, he likes me! This two million of his isnt because hes looking for an accompanying player, hes looking for a boyfriend! Or maybe its someone on the side? No, no, no, my boss isnt that kind of person. He must be single and just wants to catch me. Old Bai, what should I do? How do I refuse him? To tell the truth, before clicking open the screenshot, just looking at the text made Bai Cai think that the captain had confessed to Wei Xiao using his identity as LU! Which was why his hand trembled, and hed cut his clothing into pieces. He didnt have time to worry about his clothes out of fear that Wei Xiaos mouth would cause him to end up dead in bed. He quickly picked up his mobile phone and looked carefully. After reading Motherf*cker, Wei Xiao, youre paying for my damned clothes! The corner of Bai Cais mouth twitched, Hes just looking to chat with you, your brain is overthinking it! How messy! Wei Xiaos brain was clear, and he was also extremely keen, Wake up! Me and him are both men. Other than playing games, what can we talk about? Bai Cai: How the hell would I know?! Wei Xiao continued to analyze, Look at the two of us right now. Other than the game, is there anything else you want to talk about with me? Bai Cai: There is Wei Xiao was shocked, You cant also have a secret crush on me, right?! Bai Cai: Go and get lost ahhhhhhhh! And pay for my f*cking clothes ahhhhhh! Wei Xiao didnt get lost, You see, theres nothing to say! Bai Cais brain hurt, but he didnt dare to mess up the captains plans and could only deceive Wei Xiao, Youre thinking too much. Your boss is so rich, so if he really wants to find a boyfriend, how could he be unable to find one? Wei Xiao: What if he wants to find one who plays games? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Look at me, Im so amazing, and attractive, and I know how to talk and how to coax people. I even said words of love like this pentakill is yours, and you belong to me, umm Bai Cai was in a state of zen now, Why dont you ask him directly? Wei Xiaos brain computer froze and didnt reply to him anymore. Bai Cai waited for a long time. He was worried and sent him a question mark. 10 minutes later, Wei Xiao replied, Im good, Im good! Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao: Nothing, nothing. I thought too much about it. Go to bed early. Bai Cai exploded: Come out and clear it up for me! Where did you learn this stinky bad habit of leaving people hanging! Wei Xiao sent another screenshot to Bai Cai: It turned out that my boss just wanted to learn more about the e-sports circle. Bai Cai clicked open the image and read the contentCC LU: Im very interested in the e-sports industry. Since youre a professional player, we can talk more about it when the opportunity comes up. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: I guess that my boss wants to invest in an e-sports club. Tsk tsk, he really is a successful career man. Bai Cai was silent for a moment: Your boss is indeed successful in his career, but he doesnt need to invest in a club. He has one himself! Wei Xiao: Not talking to you anymore. Im going to introduce my boss to e-sports! Bai Cai: Ummmm He wouldve never dared to think that Close would need a newbies introduction to the e-sports circle one day. Bai Cai thought about it back and forth but couldnt figure it out. If he really had to assign the captain a reason for this set of operations It was probably what Wei Xiao had said he wanted to catch him! Wei Xiao sat cross-legged on the bed and unknowingly talked with LU for half an hour. He was serious as he summed up the e-sports circle and even gave him an introduction on the current training matches. Under LUs seemingly casual guidance, he gave an exaggerated account of his own amazing operations that day. As they talked, they eventually came to the topic of Close. LU: Do you feel bad about losing the doubles match? Wei Xiao: Whats there to feel bad about? Boss, you dont understand. Winning and losing is a common thing for soldiers. How can you win all the time? LU: Dont call me boss. Call me well, my surname is Lu. Wei Xiao peeked at the shower and typed, You might not know, but my captains last name is also Lu. A certain captain whod been leaning against the shower for half an hour: I really do know this. LU: What a coincidence. Wei Xiao thought about how the two of them were so familiar now. Calling him boss all the time was a little too estranged, so he casually said, In that case, Ill call you Brother Lu! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao continued, If you invest in a club in the future, dont be afraid of losing, especially during the training and regular seasons. If you lose, you can discover problems, and if you discover the problems, you can solve them. If you can solve them, then youll be able to deal with heavy sieges in the playoffs! The regular season was a point system, and losing a few games was normal. A so-called grand slam in the China competition zone was something that only FTWs Team of Gods had managed to do back then. The playoffs were based on an elimination system, and teams couldnt afford to lose. LU couldnt help but ask him, Then, did you discover the problem today? Wei Xiao: I did! LU: Hm? Wei Xiao: Im too trash! Im not good enough and couldnt keep up with the captain. Boss oh, Brother Lu, you dont know this, but my captain is really amazing. I always loved soloing with him before, and I felt that beating him as an opponent was very exciting. I always wanted to win against him. Today, I discovered that being his teammate is even more exciting. You dont know, but the huge gap in strength is something that I can only feel deeply when Im around him! It was 12:40AM, and it had already passed Lu Fengs bedtime, but Lu Fengs fingertips tapped very briskly on the surface of the mobile phone, So, not only do you want to win against him now, you also want to fight with him? Wei Xiao slapped his thigh, Yes! Brother Lu, your words are too accurate. I want to fight with him side by side. Being able to kill in all directions next to him would really be super cool! LU: You can. Wei Xiaos tail flipped up, Of course, Im very powerful! Previously, Close had said that he could win against him. Now, he wanted to have Close say that he was his teammate, his real teammate! Speaking of which Wei Xiao spoke up, Captain, have you finished washing up yet? Lu Feng: . It had already been 40 minutes. What kind of bath was the captain taking? Was he a pea princess? No, he didnt seem to have heard the sound of water. Wei Xiaos tone was curious, Captain? Lu Feng came out, Ive finished. In fact, hed only changed into pajamas. Wei Xiao: Why couldnt I hear the sound of water? Lu Feng was silent for a moment, The sound insulation must be pretty good. Wei Xiao was incredulous, A high level resort hotel really is different! Lu Feng thought about the dry bathroom and really regretted the nonsense hed come up with. Fortunately, Wei Xiao didnt plan to take a bath. He jumped out of bed and said, Captain, you sleep first. Im going out for a while. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao explained himself, Dont worry. Ill be back by 2AM. It wont delay the scoring tomorrow! There was no helping it. He was excited from talking to the boss and couldnt sleep. He had to find the coach to review the game; todays doubles match had too much content, and he really wanted to take a proper look at it! It was useless just to talk without putting it into practice. He couldnt just say that he wanted to cooperate with the captain; he had to take practical action as well. He would start with reviewing the game! Lu Feng still asked him, Where are you going? Wei Xiao confessed honestly, Finding the coach to review. As though afraid that Lu Feng would stop him, Wei Xiao slipped out quickly. Lu Fengs mobile phone vibrated slightlyCC Little Xiao: Brother Lu, theres something I have to do. Im going out first. Lu Feng: Mm. Im going to shower. Little Xiao: Talk again next time~! Lu Feng: Alright. Wei Xiao knocked on Chen Fengs door. The one who opened it was Tang Chen, Not sleeping yet? Wei Xiao slipped in, Coach! Chen Feng was watching the video replay in front of the computer. He was watching FTWs training match from before. Being a coach wasnt something that could be done just by talking. Although he didnt have to train for a long time like the players, he was just as tired as the players were. For a review session that lasted a few hours, the coach might have done over 10 hours of preparation beforehand, refining anything that could be refined. Chen Feng turned to look at him, Whats up? Wei Xiao laughed cheekily. Chen Feng felt a migraine coming on, Go back and sleep. I dont have the replay of the doubles match! He could figure out what this kid wanted with his eyes closed. Wei Xiao had prepared early, I have it! Chen Feng was surprised, Where did you get it from? The competition committee would definitely have it, but it was so late, and there was no way to go and ask them for it. Wei Xiao gave Bai Cai a phone call, Old Bai! Bai Cai had only just finished sewing up his pajamas, What! To hell with forgiving friends; if he could go back to two years ago, he wouldnt have gotten to know this little beast even if he was beaten to death! Wei Xiao: You recorded the performance match, right? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Dont pretend to be stupid. I know you recorded it. Hurry and bring it over. Im in Coach Chens room. He wants to help me review the game. Chen Feng: I dont, I really dont want to review the match for you. Bai Cai hesitated for a while. Wei Xiao: Please, Brother Cai, Ill give you money! Bai Cai was very clear on accounts even amongst brothers, How much? Wei Xiaoxiao wasnt short on money now, 10,000! Bai Cai took a look at the pajamas in his hands, Deal. Bai Cai was just next door and soon came over. Chen Feng was doubtful, You recorded it? Of course Bai Cai had recorded it. It was such a classic event, how could he not? Kim Sung-hyun and Li Herans doubles match. He could take any random cut from it and get traffic. Of course, Brother Cai wouldnt say this. He explained calmly, I cant ignore any game, especially todays doubles match. It touched me quite deeply and deserved to be recorded and watched carefully. Coach Chen always felt that this tone was a little familiar. Wei Xiao helped his brother out, Come, Coach, quickly come and see where the gap between me and the captain is. Wei Xiaos enthusiasm wasnt a lie. Chen Feng stared at him for a while and suddenly said, Do you know why Yuan Ze always avoids Close? Wei Xiao, whose thoughts had been locked on reviewing the match, was stunned. Bai Cais ears perked up instantly. Tang Chen also looked at Chen Feng in surprise. Chen Feng asked, Do you want to know about the previous FTW? Chapter 43: Dont look back, move forward The previous FTW? Chen Fengs question was simply a redundant question. In the entire Glory circle, who in the new generation didnt want to know about the FTW from back then? Four years ago, FTW was beautiful and boundless. Not only was that the case within the China competition zone, it was also known in all 16 competition zones around the world. Anyone who heard about FTW would pay close attention to them. In the e-sports circle, every year, there were super peak class players, outstanding new talents, and legendary players that took their teams into the realm of legends. Having one every year was no surprise, but having five of them in one year and all of them in the same team was very exaggerated. In all of Glorys history, it had only happened once. FTW was an old powerhouse that had attracted many excellent players with its qualifications. The first to join that year was their captain, the support position Yan Jiang. Then came the ADC, Kim Sung-hyun from Korea. After that was Xie He, the mid-laner whod terminated his contract with an elite domestic team. Finally, there was Yuan Ze, whod stood out in the second team, had bad taste, and liked to smear people on the ground. This was the FTW before Close joined the team. At the time, Chen Feng had played the jungler position. Chen Feng announced his retirement after only playing with them for one season. That season had left him more tired than all five previous seasons. Coach Chen was old and couldnt afford to continue tossing about like this. So, FTW discovered Close, who was still in the youth training camp at the time. A 16 year old youth who looked like a star and was clearly well bred. Indeed Close hadnt even been 17 when he joined the team. He only turned 17 after the competition began. At such a young age, FTW couldnt sign him without parental consent. However, the Close from that time was too brilliant. His operations were amazing, his game consciousness was strong, his brain was flexible, and he was savvy and knowledgeable. Not to mention that face of his. Even if he was signed on just for show, it would still carry high commercial value. At the time, FTW had already begun to act against the rules. They faked things for Close and obtained his parents signatures so that he could join the team. In just a short period of six months, FTW soared up to the skies. They crushed the regular season with a grand slam, obtained total victory in the playoffs, and crushed the runner up until their mentality collapsed in the domestic finals. A proper finals competition played out like a random pick up group game. The runner up team that had been beaten 3:0 was depressed for an entire season and couldnt stand up again until they changed their starting line-up. It was enough that they dominated at home, but after going abroad, the five of them were still overturning the heavens and razing the earth. The global competition was divided into the qualifiers, elimination rounds, and the finals. Those who were shortlisted participated in a round robin. The three seeded teams from the 16 competition zones added up to a total of 48 teams, and the top 16 with the highest points entered the elimination matches. At the time, FTW set the highest score record for the history of Glory during the qualifiers, winning 20 games in a row, entering the elimination matches with 30 points, and ranking 1st. The team that was number one in points had the opportunity to choose their opponents. In the elimination matches, FTW killed everyone they met, heading straight into the top four. In the global finals, FTW was still full of momentum. They didnt care that it was an away game and hammered the champion and runner up from last year to their hearts content. 2017 was a year that belonged to FTW. FTW won the team championship and individual championships, and only missed out on the doubles championship because they hadnt signed up for it at all. What was more ridiculous was the individual finals, where the champion and runner up were both from FTW. The top-lane Yuan Ze and mid-lane Xie He. In the end, Yuan Ze won the championship, and Xie He was the runner up. It was also from that year that the competition committee changed the registration rules, making it so that each team could only sign up one player for the individual competition. Having to watch infighting for the global finals was too much! This was the FTW from that year. It was magnificent and brilliant, and it was the Team of Gods from four years ago that still haunted the global Glory circle. It was a pity that such a team ended up scattered. After achieving such proud results, Kim Sung-hyuns contract expired, and he returned to South Korea. That wasnt much. These five people were strong enough that slashing away one of them was another way to give other teams a chance to survive. However, who couldve known that the next month would be so turbulent? Yan Jiang transferred. Xie He left as well. Yuan Ze also went to the North American competition zone. In the FTW lobby that held the world championship cup that stood for the highest level of glory, only Close was left. The Team of Gods disbanded. FTW was heading towards its end. There were many different opinions about the reasons for the disbandment of the team. Back then, when the news first came out, the articles and discussion posts written would have added up to millions of words. Some people said that the team had been too strong, and they had no opponents. The people who had ascended to the Temple were now relying on this brilliant record to seek defeat on their own. Some others said it was internal disharmony. These people had long had frequent conflicts. They were all godly level players, and nobody would give in to the other. Normally, they were annoyed just looking at each other, and now they would disperse as soon as they could. Others also said that it was because of Close. FTW was too biased towards this rookie, and even gave him the important field position. The other players werent satisfied, and the seeds for contradiction started there. Later, when Close bought FTW and became its new owner, there was even more malicious speculation. About how Close had only been a cover, and the talent behind him was the real operator. About how there was obviously something wrong with Close, and it was likely that someone had taken a fancy to him. About how some rich owner had bought the team for Close to play with, and the other players left early on because they were sickened by it. The remarks from those years had left Chen Feng so angry he was unable to sleep for three days and three nights! The people who werent involved didnt know anything. How could they be so malicious just through their speculations? They didnt know anything. What gave them the right to insult Close like that? The person whod done the most for the team, for everyone involved, was a youth whod only just reached 18, okay?! Chen Feng was unwilling to mention these things, because he couldnt suppress the pain that spread over his chest and the rolling nausea that wanted to take over whenever it was brought up. He felt disgust at the ignorant and heartache for Close. However, he was going to say it today. Because Wei Xiao should know. Chen Feng closed his eyes. There was something wrong with FTWs management. What he wanted to say was the truth that people didnt know, what was hidden in the depths, and the real reason for the FTWs dissolution. Kim Sung-hyun had decided to leave a long time ago. Chen Feng said. At the time, Kim Sung-hyun had come to FTW because back home well, in short, he always wanted to go back, and everyone was happy for him when it became possible. Although e-sports clubs didnt have any national boundaries, being able to return to ones own home country would bring some measure of calm to their hearts. Everyone could understand Kim Sung-hyuns choice. Chen Feng breathed gently and continued, The management of FTW at the time wanted to withdraw from the e-sports circle. Wei Xiao and Bai Cai, who were both listening, were stunned. Bai Cai asked, Withdraw at their peak? Chen Feng was calm, It had already reached the peak. What was left was only a downhill road. Wei Xiao was very smart and suddenly guessed it, They wanted to sell off the starters at the time? Chen Feng closed his eyes. Yes. The Team of Gods was too dazzling, and every players ability was too top-notch. What was the concept of a team who had practically won every single game from the regular season all the way to the global championships? It was no different from a student getting full marks in all their exams from the first grade of primary school all the way to their doctorate. It was too impractical. It directly affected the balance of the entire system. The competition committee began to investigate FTW thoroughly. FTW could ensure that the players had all played to their true level and that the results were authentic, but the clubs operations couldnt withstand this investigation into all aspects of their management. After some loopholes were uncovered, the management thought of performing a rapid retreat. They had already reached the peak, and it was impossible for them to beat their current performance. Rather than toppling, why not Countless teams had already offered high prices. As long as FTW nodded, they could take the members away at any moment. Who in the Team of Gods back then wasnt proud? How could they bear with the clubs despicable conduct? Yuan Ze was the first to break things off with the club, followed by Xie He, then Yan Jiang. It was only Close who said to them, Dont be anxious, give me some time. What could an 18 year old sprout of a boy do? These older brothers couldnt bear to hurt him, and they perfunctorily coaxed him until Chen Fengs voice was hoarse, Nobody had thought that Close would actually buy FTW. Bai Cai froze. Wei Xiaos eyes were red, But they all left! The tip of Chen Fengs nose was sour, Yes. Nobody knew how Close had done it, or what kind of compromises Close had given to his family. In short, he bought FTW and took ownership over the team. He wanted to keep his teammates and give them a free FTW. However, Yuan Ze and the others had already signed contracts and ended up going to other teams. In the face of disaster, everyone had flinched. This was the Team of Gods who had bravely gone forward in the arena, the FTW starters who were invincible on the championship stage. However, in the face of disaster after their victory, the choice they made was to give up. They gave up FTW, gave up the supreme glory theyd striven for, and gave up the entire team. The only one who chose to stick with it was Close. The only person left to face the disaster head-on was Close, who had just turned 18. Couldnt the team members of the Team of Gods back then also have bought FTW? One of them alone might not have been able to, but three of them together would have had a good chance of winning over capital by virtue of their own fame. But theyd never considered it. They never thought of protecting FTW, never thought of protecting their teammates or the countless fans who believed in them. When they learned that Close had become FTWs new ownerCC Yuan Ze had already gone to North America, and Yan Jiang and Xie He had already gone to Europe. The Team of Gods scattered. The room was extremely quiet. Nobody spoke. Tang Chen silently handed a paper towel over to Chen Feng. Chen Feng tried to suppress it, and tried not to recall more of that difficult past. He was a witness. He was one whod watched Close face the empty FTW, watched as he came through step by step. Who could imagine how Close felt at the time? Hed put out more effort than could be imagined in order to keep his teammates, but it had all come to nothing. All of his teammates were gone. They all had new prospects, while he was still in the same place and couldnt go anywhere. He was the one whod personally tied himself to the collapsed FTW. What had been left of FTW at the time? A rundown base, a fragmented logistics team, a group of old players who had nowhere to go, and a row of once brilliant, but now dusty, championship trophies. Standing in such an empty FTW, Close didnt fall. He formed a new team, led a group of inexperienced newcomers and rushed into the Chinese finals, winning the runner up position in 2018. This was a wonderful legend. In the year when everyone thought that FTW was completely broken, Close created a new impossibility. In the same year, Close entered the global finals, winning all the way until he obtained the singles championship. In 2019, FTW ushered in new capital injection, and new shoots grew out of the collapsed ruins of FTW. That year, FTW still managed a good record in China, and Close still won the world championship for the singles with crushing momentum. When the host lauded him as a two-time championship winner, someone corrected him. It was three in a row! This 18 year old was a starter of the Team of Gods in 2017 and the jungler of the FTW who had won the team competition! That year, Close met Wei Xiao, who was still in the youth training camp. While everyone was competing for the rookie king, FTW offered a high signing fee of 2 million. Nobody knew what this two million meant. That had been all the money that Close could take out at the time! He wanted Wei Xiao. He hoped that this gifted child could bring new hope to FTW. Unfortunately Wei Xiaos face was pale, Back then, I Chen Feng already knew about his matters and comforted him, Im not telling you these things so that youll blame yourself. You couldnt have played the game back then with your situation. Wei Xiao lowered his gaze and clenched his fists. Chen Feng: At the time, Close often told me, dont look back, move forward. Wei Xiaos heart shook. Chen Feng continued, So, Wei Xiao, dont think about two years ago. Move forward. He was telling Wei Xiao about FTWs past in the hopes that he would understand that the ice cold Close in front of him, this worlds number one who seemed so unfeeling, this person who fans called the great demon king, had a heart that was softer than anyone elses. From the beginning to now, he had never given up on the team. Even if people were gone and the building was empty, even if everything was a mess, even if there was nothing left. Such a person should have teammates that belonged to him, should have a team that was his, and should have all the glory. Previously, Chen Feng had never understood why Lu Feng paid so much attention to Wei Xiao. Todays doubles match had helped him understand. Wei Xiao was someone that Close admired. A youth who was like the sun, a brave and indomitable soldier, a soul who could pull everyone together and ignite their desire to fight! Wei Xiao bounced up abruptly. Im heading back. Chen Feng called out to him, Wei Xiao. Chen Feng spoke slowly, Lu Feng has never complained about anyone. Wei Xiaos back was tight, I know. Damn it, how could there be such a person as good as the captain in this world! Wei Xiao couldnt wait for another minute or even another second. He wanted to go back to his room. He wanted to tell Lu Feng, he wanted to let him know When he pushed the door open, Wei Xiao froze. There was someone else in the room. The two people who were talking together stopped, and the one with his back to Wei Xiao turned his head. Beneath the damp black hair was a pair of long and narrow phoenix eyes and a small tear mole beneath one eye. It was Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyun was a little surprised, The review ended so soon? They were done reviewing, but what theyd reviewed was your FTWs Team of Dogs! Wei Xiaos aura was sizzling with murderous intent. Kim Sung-hyun could sense that something was wrong and got up, Cough, since Quiet is back, Ill head back first. Lu Feng hadnt finished speaking earlier and didnt try to avoid Wei Xiao now. He spoke directly, Avoiding a fight isnt real respect. Kim Sung-hyun: Just from this half a sentence, Wei Xiao could already guess what they were talking about. The words that hed originally wanted to say to Lu Feng alone were now shouted out directly, Captain! Our FTW will take the singles championship, doubles championship, and team championship for 2021! Kim Sung-hyun was shocked. Wei Xiao stared at him and said, The old FTW couldnt do it, but the current FTW can! xiin: i just.. want to cuddle baby Close. T____T (sponsored post C you guys keep feeding us ko-fis, and there are endless weeks of saturday releases to go~ thanks!!) Chapter 44: Rather than being teammates, they were more suitable as opponents. These words were really arrogant! FTW had once been a milestone in the Glory circle. They set a number of records that even they themselves couldnt break. How could this fresh kid do it?! Newborn calves werent afraid of tigers. He probably didnt know how cruel the e-sports competition scene really was! Kim Sung-hyun felt that he shouldnt quarrel with the younger generation, but He was a little triggered, Are you sure? We achieved a grand slam for the regular season, full wins for the playoffs, a national championship, and Wei Xiao didnt back down at all and faced it head on, We will break FTWs record for the highest points in the global finals, and well win all three championships in the global finals! This was something that the former FTW had been unable to do. Kim Sung-hyun was amused, Kid. Wei Xiao didnt flinch. His eyes were incredibly serious. Kim Sung-hyun knew that it was very childish, but he still wanted to battle it out with this brat, Dont say that big brother didnt remind you. The professional arena is different from how it was before. Regardless of whether its last years champion Y1 or Eve, as well as our Pro and L&P, none of them are easy opponents! Y1s captain was Yan Jiang, FTWs former captain. Eves mid-lane core was FTWs mage king, Xie He. L&P and Pro didnt need to be mentioned. They had Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun. They were all Lu Fengs old teammates, but they were now in teams that had fought to the bitter end in the world arena over the past two years. Attempting to snatch away three championships from their hands was extremely unlikely. However Wei Xiao: Youre the ones we will win against! He wanted to win against them and prove to Lu Feng that he was his real teammate, and that he was stronger than everyone whod come before him! The future FTW would be stronger than it had been in the past! Kim Sung-hyun lost his temper, You havent even played in the domestic competitions, yet you still want to win Lu Feng interrupted him before he could finish, Its late. Kim Sung-hyun: Lu Feng declared, We are going to sleep. Kim Sung-hyun hadnt finished fighting it out with this stinky boy. He wanted to make him understand how high the heavens were, and how stinky shit was! Oh, the saying seemed to actually be as high as heaven, as deep as the earth? That wasnt important! Wei Xiaos heart was fully occupied by the 18 year old Close. Thinking of how pitiful the captain had been at the time, he felt extra heartache when he looked at the captain in front of him now. It was already half past one in the morning! His captain should have gone to bed a long time ago! Wei Xiao: Yes, were going to sleep now! Kim Sung-hyun: ??? Wei Xiao: Goodbye! There was a bang, and God Kim was shut outside the door like a lightbulb that had been expelled by a pair of lovers. What was going on?! They hadnt finished fighting yet! Li Heran brought Kim Sung-hyun back to their room. After going back, Kim Sung-hyun couldnt sleep, Brother, come rank with me. Li Heran: ? Kim Sung-hyun couldnt suppress the fire burning in his heart, If that little kid really robs me of the championship, Im going to accompany Old Dog Yuan in broadcasting eating shit! Even though he clearly knew that the kid was just talking wildly. Even though he knew that FTW couldnt possibly do what hed said. However, hed still ignited Kim Sung-hyuns fighting intent. The fighting intent that had been lost for a long time, the desire to win. CCAvoiding a fight wasnt real respect. Kim Sung-hyun took out his cell phone and sent a message to Yuan Ze. Old Shi. Yuan Ze: Its teacher, damn it! Yes, Old Shi, Kim Sung-hyun spoke the words that were in his heart, Im going to sign up for the singles this year. Yuan Ze, whod just been about to scold him, was stunned. Kim Sung-hyun tossed his phone aside after sending the message. He rolled up his sleeves, Come, lets double queue! It had been three years. What gave them the right to bully Close like this?! Close was no longer that child who hadnt yet grown up. Hed become a man who held up a piece of the skies three years ago! He didnt need others to back down and give up, and he didnt need them to avoid fighting in the name of guilt. What he wanted was respect! When it came to men, they talked in the arena! After driving away the outsiders, Wei Xiao looked at Lu Feng with wide eyes. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao restrained himself and managed not to rush over and give his captain a bear hug. Coach told me all about it. The little lunatic whod been arrogant and contrary in front of Kim Sung-hyun now looked like a cat who urgently needed its fur stroked. Lu Fengs hand was a little itchy. He wanted to stroke his soft, black hair. However, he held back. Lu Feng shifted his gaze away, It was a long time ago. Wei Xiaos heart felt like it was being squeezed, You must have been so sad back then! It hurt no matter how he thought about it. Close, who was the youngest in the team, Close, whod just reached adulthood. Hed only been 18 years old. Most people didnt even know what reality was like at that age. However, Close had already done so much, and done so many things that even adults couldnt do! Lu Feng finally couldnt hold back and patted the top of his head, Theres nothing to be sad about. Wei Xiao looked up at him, How could you not be sad! You bought FTW, but they left. Why didnt they wait? Why didnt they trust you Lu Fengs tone was flat when he mentioned the past, Even if Id bought FTW earlier, I wouldnt have been able to keep them. Wei Xiao paused. The 18 year old Close hadnt understood, but there wasnt much that the current Lu Feng couldnt see through. At the time, Close had thought that the culprit was FTWs management. Hed thought that they wanted to sell his teammates. So, hed purchased the club at all costs, wanting to keep everyone in the team. Yet, what hed done was useless. FTWs management had really been doing whatever they pleased, but they werent the main problem. The Team of Gods was as brilliant as the midday sun, and its talented players werent willing to bow down to anyone. After they won the highest level of glory, they became more and more unwilling. Why couldnt FTW play in the doubles competition? It was because none of them wanted to whole-heartedly cooperate. Players in a 5v5 game had clear roles. As long as the gap between the players was limited, and each player did their job well, victory was already in sight. However, it was different with doubles. There had to be cooperation, trust, and reliance. They were always competing against each other, and only thought of showing off their own abilities. It was like they were always trying to be better than the rest. How could they cooperate with this kind of mentality? Nobody could cooperate with Close? It was just that they didnt want to. Because they didnt want to fight side by side, and they all wanted to be better than each other. Lu Feng had understood it early on. Disbanding had been the right thing to do. For the old FTW, rather than being teammates, they were more suitable as opponents. These two years of intense Glory events had proved this to be the case. The irony was They didnt see Close as an opponent. They used the concept of guilt to avoid him, but in fact, it was an insult. Theyd given up the singles competition in order to focus on the team competition, and their reasoning was that they owed him, but essentially, it signified that they looked down on him. They looked down on the old team and also looked down on the defeated FTW. Pity was the greatest insult of all. Wei Xiao was angry just from hearing about it, Theyre not worthy; theyre not worthy of everything youve done and not worth you trying to keep them! The youths righteous indignation made a smile appear in Lu Fengs eyes that couldnt be concealed. It came straight from his heart. Over these three years, no matter how much he understood, or how much he tried to let it go, no matter how much he knew that there was no way to go back and change the past, every time he thought about it, Lu Fengs heart would be enveloped in a dark fog that he couldnt get rid of. It was thick and heavy, and it made it difficult for him to breathe. However, today, he didnt feel downcast. The haze was swept away, the mist dispersed, and there was a little sun hanging there, shining brightly and giving off a dazzling glow. Wei Xiao looked at him, Theyre not worthy of being your teammates! Lu Feng answered him, Mm. Wei Xiaos eyes brightened, Im He was just about to say that he could definitely become his real teammate, but then Wei Xiao was irritated, Im not worthy either, Im too weak! Although the old beasts from the Team of Gods werent worthy of being Lu Fengs teammates, they were really very strong. They were undeniably powerful. There was a big difference between them and the Wei Xiao of today. However, this wouldnt keep Wei Xiao down. He soon cheered up again, Dont worry, Ill improve and grow very quickly, soon Lu Feng spoke gently, Youre the best Wei Xiaos eyes grew wide and huge. Lu Feng looked at him and finished his words, Better than everyone. Im very happy being your teammate. The corner of Wei Xiaoxiaos lips curved up and up, soaring up towards the sun along with his tail. Hey He was embarrassed, When you say that, it makes my heart beat faster! Lu Feng: ! Wei Xiaos cheeks were a little red, but he didnt dodge away at all. He stared at Lu Feng and promised loudly, Ill never fail you! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao: Ill absolutely never let you down! Lu Feng could vaguely guess what his next sentence would be. Sure enough Wei Xiaoxiaos blood was boiling and he said passionately, I will definitely surpass them! Lu Feng calmed down, Sleep. Wei Xiao: ??? Lu Feng glanced at him, Go wash up. Wei Xiao piled all his words together, Hey, hey, hey, Captain, dont you believe me? Im not talking in my sleep! I can definitely become stronger than them! Lu Feng tossed his bathrobe at him. Wei Xiao hugged it tight and looked aggrieved, You just said that Im better than everyone else. How come you dont believe me now! Lu Feng lifted up his quilt, got into bed, and lay down. Wei Xiao: I really Lu Feng finished the last thing he had to do before falling asleepCChe closed his eyes. Wei Xiao: Wei Little Xiao, who had no idea how hed offended the captain, could only go and take a bath. He sighed as he washed upCC The captains heart was as unfathomable as a needle at the bottom of the sea. If he wanted to become a good, caring teammate, then he still needed to work hard! By the time Wei Xiao came out, Lu Feng was already sleeping. He slowed his steps and snuck over. Lu Feng lay on his side in the bed, his face turned towards Wei Xiaos bed. His black hair, which had been washed and dried, fell across the pillow like soft silk. The eyes that pushed people thousands of miles away and kept them at a distance were closed, and his side profile was so gentle that it left Wei Xiao a complete mess. What made Wei Xiao smile and curve his eyes was: The great demon king of Glory actually had a cute sleeping posture where both of his hands were stuffed beneath the pillow! If he took a photo And posted it up on Weibo, his fan count would soar from 2.5 million to 5 million overnight. No way. Wei Xiao whispered to himself as he crawled into his own bed. Such a cute captain, he wasnt about to show this to anyone else! Chapter 45: Bai Cai: You didnt act like a beast last night, right? It was a dreamless night. By the time Wei Xiao woke up, he was the only one left in the room. He sat up and patted his face, then noticed that there were unread messages on his cell phone. Current time, 11 in the morning. Great, there was still two hours before the winter training server opened. Steady! The unread messages had come in five minutes ago. They were from Bai Cai, Are you awake? Wei Xiao kicked on his slippers and headed to the bathroom, What? Bai Cai: Food! Wei Xiao: Oh A while later, Bai Cai sent another three words, Last night, you Wei Xiao poked out a question mark with one hand. Bai Cais worries were very reasonable, You guys didnt do anything last night, right? Wei Xiao: ??? Bai Cai saw that using euphemisms wouldnt work and spoke directly, You didnt climb into the captains bed, right?! Wei Xiao tsked and set down his toothbrush to snark at Bai Cai, Old Bai, whats the matter with you. Are you so eager to fall in love? What are you hinting at all day long?! He had no reason to doubt that Bai Cai had some problems. How could a normal straight man manage a wonderful account like the Gossip Emperor account? Bai Cai was really angry, Sleepwalking! Im talking about whether or not you sleepwalked! Based on this situation, he probably hadnt. Wei Xiaos fingers moved quickly, I wont sleepwalk unless Im too tired. I slept before 3AM last night, so why the hell would I sleepwalk?! There were conditions for his sleepwalking, such as staying up late to play games. As soon as he stayed up for 18 hours consecutively, there was a high probability that he would sleepwalk. Bai Cai relaxed, Say, you know you have this problem, but you still dare to sleep with others. Wei Xiao thought: What do you understand? The captain and I have already slept together once. Making it twice or three times wouldnt make a difference. Bai Cai said, I have a single room, yet you dont want to come over and live here, and insist on squeezing in with the captain. Wei Xiao: ?????? Bai Cai: I think youre Wei Xiao: F*ck, you have a single room? Bai Cai: Yeah, theres nine of us. There has to be someone with a single room. Wei Xiao: Damn it, hed been overthinking it and confused for a while and hadnt thought about living alone! Bai Cai understood him too well, Could it be that you didnt know there was a single room? Wei Xiao really hadnt known, but how could he admit it?! Wei Xiao insisted, Of course I knew. Bai Cai was surprised, So then you just wanted to live with the captain?! When it came to this, Wei Xiao once again acted shameless, What, is that not okay? Our captain is strong and handsome and takes care of me. Why cant I sleep with him! Bai Cai: Sleep, sooner or later, youll be slept to death! Wei Xiao finished washing up and wondered where Lu Feng had gone. However, he thought about how the captain was a busy man who had to exercise and arrange work. He definitely wasnt as free as Wei Xiao the internet addict. Wei Xiao went to Bai Cais room and wandered around. Seeing how big and comfortable the room was, he looked envious. If hed known earlier that there was a single room, he Ah, forget it. Sleeping with the captain was pretty good too. After all, they needed to cultivate tacit understanding in all aspects in order to play doubles together. The two of them went to eat together and ran into Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan. Bai Cai asked, Hows the buffet? Yue Wenle: The chips are pretty good. Bai Cai: Did you go over to eat a meal, or did you just go over to nibble on snacks?! He went to look at Ning Zhehan. Little Ning was relatively more reliable, The food was very rich and delicious! Bai Cai relaxed. His suitcase was a little small, and he hadnt brought any instant noodles. If the food wasnt good, he wouldnt have the strength to play games. Wei Xiao wasnt interested in eating. He picked up a plate of watermelon and sat down. Bai Cai was speechless, Is that all youre eating? Wei Xiao: Hunger keeps me focused. Bai Cai: ??? Brother Cai often felt a sense of confusion because he was out of sync with his teammates. Wei Xiao bit into a piece of watermelon, You dont get it. A hungry stomach can stimulate potential. In a bit, Im going to go up and train with the divine warrior. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao spoke deeply, As a top-laner, I cant indulge myself with the shadow thief. I must master all the top lane heroes so that I can be worthy of our captain. Bai Cai pushed over the steak that was in front of him, I think youll starve to death before you catch up to the captain! Wei Xiao refused, Old Bai, dont harm me. After eating enough, laozi will just want to go to sleep. Itll influence how much strength I can exert. Bai Cai: You just f*cking woke up! Wei Xiao: Digesting food affects the brain! Bai Cai: Stupid fool. Wei Xiao: ??? Did you just curse at me? No. You cursed me! You called me a stupid fool, Old Bai, youre done for! Bai Cai stuffed a piece of steak into his mouth. He was about to end up tired to death from dealing with this picky eater with his potty mouth who could starve himself for the sake of playing games! The actions between the two of them werent small. A certain someone whod been sleeping next to them slowly opened his eyes. The members of the 3U team: ! Their captain woke up, but their vice-captain wasnt there. What should they do. Wei Xiao had also noticed it. He asked without much sincerity, Did we wake you up? He was actually able to fall asleep at the dining table. Brother Sleep, did you come here to eat, or did you come here to sleep? Asleep opened his eyes and looked at Wei Xiao for a while. Wei Xiao wasnt Cong Yi and didnt understand if he was trying to say something or not. Then, something happened that left the 3U team stunned! Their captain spoke, and he spoke words that people could actually understand! Asleep: You lost miserably yesterday. Wei Xiao: ??? Asleep comforted him, Dont be sad. Ill help you get revenge in the doubles. Wei Xiao: After saying these two sentences, Asleep toppled over again. Wei Xiao exploded, Old Sleep, what do you mean? Are you looking down on me? I may have lost the doubles, but I Asleep: Zzzz Speaking of which, our Brother Xiao might defy the heavens, the earth, and even the air, but hed really never gone up against an immortal who could provoke him and then go straight into a deep slumber! At one oclock in the afternoon, the winter training server came online. In order to fight for points, everyone rushed in as soon as they could. The competition committee likely had plans to keep the winter training server for the future, and the server was quite well built. They had copied the regular server for the most part, and the team hall was exactly the same, but the player accounts for this server were all max levelled, had all the heroes, and even had all the skins. If ordinary players could see these accounts, their eyes might actually start to glow. They could pick any talent at will, and there were thousands of skins to choose from. Not to mention the limited edition ones that hadnt been up for sale in a long time Even though they were professional players, they also found it quite refreshing. For ordinary players, character skins were nothing but a matter of appearance. It didnt affect their operations. For professional players, there was a big difference. It wasnt due to the skins attribute bonuses, but because of hand feel. Hand feel was something that could make a difference as big as the gap between the heavens and the earth during a professional competition. Why did people love to use the heroes they became famous with? Why did people like to tie together certain contestants with certain heroes? It was really not the same. Having that kind of godly pairing was just as if the real person was entering the canyon and becoming one with the hero! The difference between the winter training server and the official servers was in the bulletin board. The bulletin board for the official servers held notices regarding new heroes and talents, update tips, official game notices, and so on. The winter training server bulletin board was full of rules. Wei Xiao glanced over it and quickly summed up the key points. First, free matching was limited to single or doubles, and they couldnt queue together as three or five people. Second, the free matches were divided into team competitions, doubles matches, and individual matches, and each had their own professional arena. Third, the rules for points was that winning a match was worth three points, while losing a match meant they lost three points. Having a negative point count was possible, but if there werent any special circumstances, they wouldnt be banned from competing. Fourth, the points were the same for all three competition modes. Fifth, the total points would be calculated every day at 6PM. All the points from every player in the team would be tallied up at that time. Sixth, the starters of each team had to participate in the free matches for at least three hours a day. If they played for less than three hours, then the team would lose their qualifications for the rankings that day. Seventh, fighting on behalf of others wasnt allowed. If it was discovered, the team would lose the qualifications to participate in training matches. Chen Feng sent a message in the team group chat at almost the same time, Bai Cai, dont slack off. Play for the full amount of time every day. Its fine to lose, since this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to familiarize yourself with your opponents. The free matching rules were relatively fair. Three points were given for winning, and three points were deducted for losing. In order to avoid having teams farm points internally, the rankings were based on the total points of the five team starters. Each teams players were of different levels. In order to avoid having the weaker players play less so as not to lose points, a minimum play time was enforced. In fact, these problems werent big ones. These simple constraints were already enough. The purpose for those attending winter training was to improve themselves, and they wouldnt refuse to participate in the free matches. As Chen Feng had said, losing didnt matter. This was a great opportunity for the players to understand their opponents. However, there was one thing that caused excitement amongst the players. There was a public chat area in the main hall, and the chat box came with an inbuilt language translator. Although the translations werent perfect, it was still enough to understand the general idea. Why are the points for singles and doubles the same as team games? Thats not fair! How can we win a doubles match against Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran? Can I win against Close in a singles match? Isnt that a chance for them to farm points? Someone immediately picked up the conversation topic, You can choose not to play singles or doubles. Nobodys asking you to play. Another person kicked up a fuss, Wake up, person above me. Singles and doubles are part of the free matches. What does free mean? Even the mode is random! Indeed. This free matching in the winter training server was very free. Those who queued on their own could end up in singles, doubles, or team mode, and they had to play whatever game they were matched into. Those who queued in pairs wouldnt be put into a singles competition, but they would be randomly allocated to either a doubles or team game. So, it wasnt as though the contestants could simply choose not to play! Another person retorted, So what? Everyone is relying on their own strength. Losing just means you suck. Why blame the system for being unfair? Besides, there is only one great demon king. If you match up with him, youre just unlucky. Whats the point in being a coward? Wait a minute If its random matching, does that mean theres a chance to see Close against Marshal. Holy shit! And Kim Sung-hyun! Kim Sung-hyun will definitely double queue. What are you thinking? Marshal is good too. How long has it been since hes soloed? The information in the public screen scrolled by very quickly. Most people felt that tying to make it to the top three was hopeless and were randomly muddling along trying to score points. Wei Xiao was unwilling to waste time. There was a total of five hours, and even if the games ended quickly, that was still only seven or eight matches. He needed to get started on scoring points right away! Wei Xiao bravely pressed down on the match button In the FTW training room, Brother Cai called out passionately, Begging for a doubles partner! Come and score points happily with me! Ning Zhehan raised his hand, Ill join you! Brother Cai spoke mercilessly, We might end up scoring negative points. Yue Wenle: I want to queue on my own. It was obvious that queuing for the single mode was the most fun. Who didnt want to try participating in a singles game? Brother Vegetable looked towards Wei Xiao, Brother Xiao! Wei Xiao: Not happening. Bai Cai: Whats going on with all of you. Cant you take along this old, weak, sick and disabled person?! Wei Xiao hadnt been matched up yet. He earnestly advised him, Old Bai, youre already a fully mature vegetable. You should learn to take care of yourself. Milk Dad Bai was angered, Dont ask me to heal you in the future! Wei Xiao was very calm, Well talk about future matters later. We should focus on the present. Bai Cai: Im looking at the f*cking present! In a fit of anger, Bai Cai also clicked on the singles match button. Wei Xiao was happy, Ive matched up with an opponent! Bai Cai harrumphed, then turned to find that hed also been matched up. And it was a damned singles match. Holy shit it couldnt be. They couldnt see their opponents names when they entered the battle interface. Bai Cai silently recited a hundred times: Its impossible, impossible. He and Old Wei didnt have this kind of dogshit luck that stretched over a thousand miles. And then he heard Wei Xiao say, This person actually banned the shadow thief. Im now Top-lane Wei and definitely wont use the shadow thief. Bai Cai looked at the shadow thief that hed just sent up into the ban position: It couldnt be! No way! Banning the shadow thief was common practice. It didnt have to mean that hed matched up with Wei Xiao. Then, he heard Wei Xiao continue, Who should I ban? Theres nothing I want to ban. Ill just ban the holy priest then! The holy priest wasnt a talent that would be used in a singles match. Only fools would ban it. Bai Cai: F*ck! Hed encountered a fool! Wei Xiao stretched his head over to look at him, Whats the problem? Banning the holy priest is me taking it easy on the other side. The corners of Bai Cais mouth twitched. It continued until Wei Xiao entered the game interface and saw the ID FTW.White. What kind of dogshit luck was this? Hed unexpectedly matched up with Bai Cai in his first free match?! And it was a singles match! Wei Xiao was in a trance, Is this retribution? Revenge on me for not doing a double queue with the milk dad? He was still dazed as he killed off Bai Cai and sent him off. Bai Cai: To hell with your f*cking retribution. Who exactly is the one suffering here! In the first set of games, FTWs Wei Xiao gained three points, and FTWs Bai Cai lost three points. FTW total score: 0. With the miserable experience of the two of them as an example, Yue Wenle whod originally planned to single queue went to look at Ning Zhehan. Ning Zhehan: Brother Le! Yue Wenle nodded. The two of them went to queue up together. After struggling for ten minutes, Wei Xiao, whod caused such a problematic situation, was really unreconciled, Come double queue! Bai Cai had just died six times, and his heart felt blocked and flustered, Couldnt you have f*cking killed me a little less! Although hed lost, couldnt he have lost a little more decently! The two of them went to double queue together. Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan were also in the doubles queue. And then At two oclock in the afternoon, the audience who were watching the live broadcast for the winter training matches all exploded. Holy, look at FTW! God, hahaha, what kind of dogshit luck does my FTW have?! Im about to f*cking die of laughter. In the first game, Quiet matched up with God Bai in a singles match; in the second game, Quiet and Brother Vegetable went to double queue and matched up with Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan! FTW, how can you be so improper? It was agreed that you went to winter training in order to train with the other 17 teams. Why are you fighting amongst yourselves?! Its been 40 minutes. Pro already has 15 points. Our FTW Its a huge mess. Theyre all hammering themselves. When Chen Feng and Lu Feng arrived in the training room, the four cubs were preparing for the next round. He looked at the score Chen Feng fell silent. Wei Xiao was really angry, Old Bai, again. For better or worse, weve been paired up and flying together for over two years. How can we fold up our wings like this?! Hed just clicked on the match button when Lu Feng held down his hand. Wei Xiao paused. Lu Feng covered his hand, moved the mouse to cancel the matching process, then pulled him out of the doubles team. Wei Xiao: ??? Chen Feng was about to die from anger. He really wished he could use the documents in his hand to knock their small heads together, Are you guys stupid? Do you not know to take turns queueing?! The four little children: .. Chapter 46: The great demon king that outsiders see No wonder the captain cancelled his matching process as soon as he came in. Wei Xiao finally realized, There are less than 100 people in the winter training server! They were used to queueing for games on the official servers. With hundreds of millions of players, the probability of encountering someone like this was very low even in the top ranks. However, it was different for the winter training server. There were a total of 18 teams, and all of the starters together added up to only 90 people. Even if some teams with substitutes (whose points wouldnt count) also participated, it would still only add up to around 100 people. It was such a small number of people, and yet theyd dared to click the match button at the same time. It was simply Coach Chen Feng: I just left for a while, and you managed to waste two games! The four little children: They didnt dare say anything. Lu Feng sat down in front of his machine and adjusted the mouse buttons, Its fine, its only been 40 minutes. Chen Feng: Theres only a total of five hours! Lu Feng: They didnt lose points either. Mother Hen Chen was really angry, Youre f*cking indulging them! The four little ones didnt even dare to breatheCC The great demon king outside was the great demon king that outsiders saw. The great demon king inside the team was Queen Chen. Although Lu Feng defended them, Chen Feng still pointed at the scoreboard and scolded the four of them. It had only been a short 40 minutes, but there was already a huge gap in the scoreboard. The first tier with Pro and L&P had already obtained 15 points. In other words, they had all won their first rounds. The teams in the second tier had 9 points. For example, 3U. Seeing their brother teams score, Chen Feng really hated iron for not being steel even more, Take a look at 3U. Why didnt they hammer themselves the way you did?! Asleep and Cong Yi had won in the doubles, scoring six points. 3Us mid-lane and top-lane had also gotten 6 points, while the bottom lane whod queued on his own had lost, losing three points. FTW stood firmly in eighth place with its unique zero points. Above it were positive scores, and below it were negative scores. Only FTW was impartial and unconcerned, a big round duck egg zero standing out from the crowd. The competition committee was very tricky. Theyd placed this damned scoreboard in each teams training room, making it so that they could see the scores as soon as they looked up. The other 18 teams were probably wondering, what was going on with FTW? Hadnt they started matching yet? Then, when they looked at their records. Oh, amazing. It was a team of wolves who ate each other! Chen Feng might be angry, but he was also reluctant to waste time. After beating up the little fools, he started implementing a strategy. Free matching looked random, but it actually needed to be well thought out. For example, in this scoring system where winning scored three points and losing deducted three, and the play level of the five players werent the same, there would always be someone who gained points while others lost. In order to obtain more points, one had to consider how to pair the players up. Free matches could only be played in teams of two or on their own. For the sake of training and maximizing points, Bai Cai could join the single queue. It was meaningless for a support player to play on their own. Not to mention, Bai Cais nature wasnt aggressive, and he rarely went for the kill. A solo vegetable could even make passersby curse at him. Besides, rather than letting him go out on his own to give away points to the other side, they might as well have him join the double queue. How should they form the doubles team? Chen Feng thought about it for a long time and finally decided, Take turns. Wei Xiao chuckled mischievously ,Brother Cai, are you happy? Everyone is taking turns with you. Bai Cai: Shut up! Chen Feng slapped the table in front of Little Lunatic Wei, Behave. Wei Xiao sat up straight, Yes, sir! Chen Feng was really convinced. Wei Xiao was the biggest troublemaker, but the one who could coax people the best was also him! Were a team. We have to queue up at staggered times. With that, he looked grumpily at the four little idiots. The idiots bowed their heads and pretended to be quails. Chen Feng continued, Itll be difficult to have the matches end at the same time if we stagger the queue times, so this rotation will be calculated by day. For example, if its Wei Xiao and Bai Cai today, they will queue together for five hours. Wei Xiao raised his hand! Chen Feng knew what he wanted to say, Dont worry. Well draw lots. Whoever wins will double queue! Chen Feng finished explaining everything and asked, Is there anything you dont understand? The four of them all shook their heads simultaneously. Chen Feng took out his cell phone, Come draw for Brother Cai. Wei Xiao was seated near the front. Chen Feng handed him his cell phone first. There was a simple lottery app open in the phone interface. Chen Feng had adjusted the settings, and one of the four draw options was labelled with Bai Cais name. Wei Xiao rubbed his hands and murmured quietly, Dont be me please dont be me He still wanted to join the doubles queue with the captain and didnt want to drag along dead weight. Bai Cai could hear him clearly, I dont f*cking want to double queue with you either! Wei Xiao looked at Bai Cai, I accept your golden words. He clicked on draw and the page began to turn. Then The huge words Bai Cai leapt up on the screen. Wei Xiao: F*ck! Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Old Bai, you have a crows mouth! Bai Cai cried at Chen Feng, Coach, look at how hes acting. He definitely wont play with me seriously! Chen Feng was expressionless, If you two end up with negative points, Ill deduct your salary! Bai Cai was shocked, Deduct it by how much?! Chen Feng: 5000 per point. There definitely wouldnt be a negative point situation. Every time they lost, they would lose three points. That was 15,000 right there, and Brother Cai, who took money as his life, would definitely go crazy! Wei Xiaoxiao didnt care. When it came to money How could Chen Feng not understand what he was thinking? Coach Chen was someone who would adjust his teaching methods according to the student. He looked at Wei Xiao, You wont be deducted money. Wei Xiao: ? Chen Feng: If you lose points today, dont even think about soloing with Lu Feng for 15 days after we go back! Wei Xiao: !!! Bai Cai! Wei Xiao was anxious now, Be more serious when we play. If you drag me down, laozi will fight you! Bai Cai was even more anxious, If you cause me to be deducted 15,000, Ill f*cking take you down with me! Ning Zhehan & Yue Wenle: They wouldnt say anything. They were going to be low-key people and focus on saving up points. So, that days lineup was decided. Wei Xiao and Bai Cai queued together, Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle queued together, and Lu Feng queued on his own. This arrangement was actually very good. Wei Xiao could carry Bai Cai; Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle could get points as long as they didnt run into any old beasts; as for Lu Feng let the other teams seek their own fortune! Five hours a day. If they played the entire time, they could finish seven or eight games. There was an element of luck involved. If they were matched up for individual matches, it could end in two or three minutes. If it was a doubles game or a team game, it would definitely take longer, and the game time averaged around 40 minutes. However the risk involved in a singles match was higher. Those from each team who dared to single queue were definitely not weak, and it was hard to say what the winning rate would be like in their games. On FTWs side, they would only be able to play six or seven games even if they played the entire time. In order to win more points, Wei Xiao and Bai Cai first started the matching process. They entered a game very quickly this time, matching into a five-man team game. Wei Xiao: Old Bai, Im going to play top-lane. Play steadily. Bai Cais brain hurt, Youre f*cking screwing me over! It wasnt that Wei Xiao didnt play well in the top lane, but the top lane position was the least involved with the support position in a team game. One of them spent most of their time in the top lane, and one focused on protecting the ADC. When it came to which positions were furthest apart from each other, it would definitely be the top lane and bottom lane. Lu Feng, whod just entered the matching interface, glanced at Wei Xiao when he heard his words. Recently, Wei Xiao had been very focused on the divine warrior and would practically insta-lock it when he entered the game. There wasnt anything Bai Cai could do about it, and he could only leave it up to fate, If my ADC isnt worth healing, Ill follow you Having the support follow the top-laner could be said to be the worst strategy out of all bad strategies. In this game, the players they matched with werent anyone they knew. It looked as though there were people from South Korea as well as Brazil and the Latin Americas Regardless of whether they were familiar or not, hammering them dead was all they had to do! Five minutes into the start of the game, Wei Xiao killed the other sides top-lane on his own. Brother Cai wailed and howled, Damn it, this shitty marksman. Laozis control skill was perfect, yet he actually let the other side slip away! Brother Cais worries werent unreasonable. This ADC seemed to be playing in a daze. It was bad enough that he missed the soldiers, but the kill that was sent right to his mouth was allowed to get away, too. Thankfully, the ADC on the opposite side was also very bad. When Bai Cais positioning wasnt ideal, the other ADC didnt take advantage of it; if it had been Old Yue, he wouldve been sent up to heaven a long time ago. Wei Xiao and Bai Cai were clearly playing together, but it felt like they were playing two different games. In the top lane, Wei Xiao pressured his opponent endlessly, and the other side lost their first tower, then their second tower and completely collapsed. In the bottom lane, it was an exchange between unskilled players. Bai Cai was so anxious that he really wished he could steal his marksmans arrows and help him shoot the other side dead! Fortunately, the advantage theyd gained in the top lane was too big. Their teammates might be average players, but at the end of the day, they were still professionals and could take advantage of opportunities presented to them. After they pulled ahead of their opponent by 8000 gold, they managed a major victory in the group battle, pushing all the way to their opponents resurrection crystal and winning the game. Wei Xiao exited the game in a dominant position, and on Lu Fengs side, hed also just finished a game. On the scoreboard, FTWs score finally moved. Wei Xiao, Bai Cai, +6 points. Lu Feng, +6 points. Wei Xiao blinked, In the time it took us to play one game, captain has already finished two? Lu Feng: Solo. Hed won two solo matches. Wei Xiao was sour once again, all kinds of sour and jealous. He was jealous of those who could solo with Lu Feng and jealous that Lu Feng could play singles matches! Ah, how unlucky was his hand for him to draw Ah Bai Again! Wei Xiao didnt want to waste time. Bai Cai clicked to start the queue. Lu Feng was also waiting to enter a game. He took off his headset and spoke to him, Do you still want to play the divine warrior? Wei Xiao nodded, I need to practice with it properly. How could a top-laner be considered a top-laner if they couldnt play the divine warrior well! Lu Feng paused, Why dont you try playing jungler. Wei Xiao was surprised, Im a top-laner. How can I play jungler all day long? The reason why Lu Feng and Chen Feng had arrived 40 minutes late was because theyd held a short meeting after putting together the training plan. CCRegarding Wei Xiaos position. They would definitely have Wei Xiao play in the jungler position, but they hadnt yet decided on when this information would be made public. The main reason was that Close switching positions was no small matter. Once it was announced, everyone in FTWs operations and PR departments would have to be prepared. Otherwise, they would have endless internal and external troubles. Close switching to the top lane was something that fans couldnt accept, and the current starters of FTW might not be able to adapt to it so quickly either. A full four years. This team that took Close as their core had already gone on for so long. Everyone had already decided in their hearts that anything could change, but Close as the jungler core could never change. If it was changed, it would shake them to the core. But dragging it on wasnt a solution. This training camp was a good time. If they could execute a perfect transformation at this time, they could gradually run in the line-up during the National Championships after they went home. The regular season that went on for several months was enough time to create a new FTW. The playoffs, national finals, and even the global games would all be full of hope. Lu Feng had suggested saying it earlier, the earlier the better, while Ning Zhehan was still not familiar with their existing playing methods. Chen Feng, however, had suggested that they take it slowly. After discussing it for a long time, Chen Feng persuaded Lu Feng with one thingCC You have to give Wei Xiaosome time. Although that boy isnt afraid of heaven and earth, hes never played in a real game. If you make him hold up such a heavy pillar so soon after hes joined, what will you do if it crushes him? Lu Feng knew that Wei Xiao wouldnt collapse. But It wasnt a bad thing to give him some time to get used to it. Although theyd decided, Lu Feng still wanted Wei Xiao to play the jungler position more, which was why hed spoken up now. Bai Cai didnt know about the matter of switching positions. What he cared about was, Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, Im begging you, play a game as the jungler, well win more easily that way! The previous match had really been too difficult for him. Marksmen were weak in the early stages, and the jungler hadnt gone around to gank people. Hed provided such perfect vision, yet they hadnt been able to keep up with his rhythm. What could Brother Cai do as a healer? He really wished he could kill people with his staff! Wei Xiao had just been about to say that he was now devoted to the top lane and only loved the top lane Lu Feng added, You can win faster and get more points. Wei Xiao: ! Chen Feng was really impressed by a certain person. He held the title of the great demon king, yet he indulged this child to death! Coach Chen also gave him a boost, Youve already wasted 40 minutes. Hurry up and accumulate points! Wei Xiaos hands were also a little itchy. He asked tentatively, Then, Ill play jungler? Bai Cai was in the first position for picks and had already helped him snatch up his hero, The shadow thief wasnt banned, Ill get it for you! Wei Xiao spoke reluctantly, Fine, fine. Its important to score more points first. The divine warrior was fun to play, but the shadow thief was more attractive! Bai Cai was finally relieved, Come and help out the bottom lane more often. Wei Xiao: Dont worry. The difference between playing the jungler position and the top-lane was that the top-laner was tied to their lane, while the jungler was a kind of wandering position that specifically provided support to his teammates. Although Bai Cai needed to protect the marksman, as long as he provided good vision for the team, based on Wei Xiaos instinct in grasping the rhythm of the game, he easily could gank the other side until they exploded. When they entered the game and saw their opponents, they didnt know who to blame for their bad luck. The red sides jungler was FTW.Quiet, support FTW.White The blue sides jungler was 3U.Asleep, support 3U.Congyi. The great FTW had crashed games with their own teammates, and after that, they turned around and crashed into their brother team. The fans who were watching the live broadcast back in China were all excited again. Hurry and switch to FTWs third live studio! Holy, its FTW vs 3U! Wait a minute, why is Quiet playing jungler? What are you flustered for? Its hard to say who will match up with who in the free matches. Maybe the team already has a top-laner. Lets bet, lets bet, Im thinking my Pajamas CP will win! 3U will definitely win this one. Asleeps berserker thief and Cong Yis light priest have a win rate of 80%. FTWs Quiet is very strong, but he hasnt been in the team for long and hasnt played enough with his teammates. Can he do it? One of Brother Cais fans interjected, You guys might not know. The amount of time my God Bai has cooperated with him might actually be more than with God Le. Yes, yes, yes, our Xiao Cai CP has a long history! Think in terms of an archaeological blockbuster. It has to be said that the professor and God Cai have played together for three years Holy shit! The scrolling comments exploded, These two junglers are too fierce! The game had just started, and the soldier lines had just met when Asleep and Wei Xiao started fighting in the river that cut through the canyon. It didnt need to be said that Wei Xiao was a thorn, but the Asleep who wasnt sleeping was even more prickly. Thorn against thorn. It was exciting! Chen Feng, whod originally been standing behind Yue Wenle, went over to stand behind Wei Xiao. He only glanced at the scene, and his eyebrows rose. Lu Fengs eyes were really accurate. Wei Xiao was born for this position. He dared to fight, dared to charge in, and could grasp the timing. The most difficult thing was that his momentum was able to inspire and raise up the rest of his teammates! Um The corner of Coach Chens mouth twitchedCCthere was also a negative effect. Not only did Little Lunatic Wei drive his teammates to higher heights, he also inspired his enemy. What was this! Although Asleep was known for his ferocity, had he always been this wild?! Chapter 47.1: Quiet~ Chinas sharpening stone Asleep couldnt be blamed for going so wild. In the hero selection interface, hed wanted to take the shadow thief, but the other sides first position had snatched it up, leaving him very unhappy. When they entered the game He then saw the ID FTW.Quiet, and Sleep God was triggered into exploding. Shadow thief vs berserker thief. It represented the regret that had been left behind last time hed fought against Wei Xiao in the live broadcast. At the time, Asleep had used the shadow thief and lost to Wei Xiao. Many of his fans had called for Asleep to use the berserker thief to take back a win. And now, that opportunity had arrived! There were some people in the scrolling comments who didnt quite understand, Last time, Asleep lost to Quiet. Can he win this time? Someone immediately shared general knowledge, Wake up! The berserker thief can explode the heavens in 5v5, okay? The shadow thief cant compare to it at all! Thats right, this was the biggest difference between a shadow thief and a berserker thief. The shadow thief was a talent spec who could use a set of skills to kill people across the heavens and the earth. The advantage of this kind of hero was that it could deal tons of damage in an instant and kill the opponents c-position, making it so that any group battle was already half won. But the disadvantages were also very obvious. After using the set of skills, they had to immediately slip away. If they didnt manage to get away, they were nothing more than a one hit wonder super soldierCCuseless. The berserker thief wasnt like that. It was a typical group battle hero and could be used as a core DPS position. His passive ability ensured that he could participate in continuous battles. As long as he killed one enemy, it would be bad news for the opponent. The berserker thief who was in a frenzy could only be described as adding madness on top of madness. Its skill cooldowns dropped sharply, its damage doubled, and it would even have a defense bonus. It became the real daddy of the canyon in an instant! In a group battle, the berserker thief could deal continuous damage for as long as the fight lasted. In a solo game, the shadow thief had the advantage, because one rotation of his skills was enough to destroy the heavens and the earth, and a single person couldnt withstand the damage. 5v5 was the berserker thiefs world. This was especially the case when it was Asleep, who was an old hand at it. He would definitely be able to enter the berserk state and take off during the group battle. When the two of them soloed, Wei Xiao, who could play out eight light arcs with his shadow thief, won against Asleep. Now, in a 5v5 team fight, Asleeps berserker thief wasnt the same anymore! There wasnt much difference in the personal ability level of these two players, so it was difficult to say what the outcome would be. Asleep was lazy and sleepy in reality, and as long as he wasnt in front of the computer, he could be seen sleeping 99% of the time. The remaining 1% was when he was on his way to sleep. Yet it was such a Sleep God who could blow up the canyon in seconds as soon as he entered the game. It seemed that all of the strength he saved up in normal times was all released into the Glory canyon and the heroes he manipulated. The way he used this berserker thief made even Wei Xiaos eyes brighten. When it came to all the talents in Glory, Wei Xiao used Close as the standard. However, Closes berserker thief was absolutely different from Asleeps. Even when he was using the berserker thief, Close still brought a heavy pressure to the canyon, making people feel besieged and cautious, and they couldnt help being careful when they played. Asleep was different. His play seemed to be full of loopholes, as though he was exchanging a life for a life, and his style seemed to be similar to self-destruction! However, this was a trap. Anyone who tried to sneak attack him would instead be sending themselves into his arms and end up locked in by his scythe! The first real group fight between the two sides took place in the red sides bottom lane jungle area. The berserker thief stole into Wei Xiaos jungle area. Bai Cai noticed it and sent Wei Xiao a signal. Wei Xiao had originally wanted to go and clear the upper lanes jungle area, but at this moment, he turned around and called Bai Cai and the marksman over to block the berserker thiefs retreat. Asleep only had his own support Cong Yi, and the two of them had infiltrated in quite deep. He saw how Wei Xiao and Bai Cai wanted to come attack them, and his instincts all came alert. A few seconds before Bai Cai could use his W skill, he locked his sickle towards the dragon pit and jumped backwards to avoid Wei Xiaos attack! Hed dodged away. Reasonably speaking, Cong Yi was done for. As a support without much health and no damage, as soon as he was surrounded, the only way out was death. Cong Yi really deserved to be someone who cooperated with Asleep all year round. He never planned to run. He used his Q skill and released his ultimate move, perfectly locking in on Bai Cai, who was positioned behind the marksman. Asleep didnt pause at all. The berserker thiefs black scythe flew over to the red sides marksman. Bai Cai hurriedly used his ultimate move, and the marksmans health went up and down like a roller coaster. Unfortunately, there was no tacit understanding between the marksman and Bai Cai. In this situation, he definitely shouldnt run and just needed to stand still and deal damage. Even if he died, there would still be Wei Xiao coming over to finish off the kill. However, the marksman backed off! Looking at his health bar that fluctuated like a trampoline, he became scared! This brief hesitation gave the berserker thief enough opportunity to take away the marksmans life with a series of moves. Bai Cais healing was more of a continuous type, and there was a certain interval between each heal. It was reasonable to say that this interval had been minimized to the extreme, but unfortunately, Asleep was able to snatch this opportunity to deal all the damage and take away the kill in the moment when the marksmans health wasnt recovering! By the time Wei Xiao arrived, all he saw was a berserker thief in a frenzy. To hell with fighting. Everyone who saw this scene thought this way. They shouldnt fight and should quickly withdraw in order to avoid having a situation where a silly baby went to save the grandfatherCCsending heads over one by one. Holy shit! Quiet is crazy! He didnt pull back! Hes too caught up in it, right! Brother Cai doesnt have any skills left, and his own sides marksman has already fallen. Faced with a frenzied berserker thief, what can Quiet do? Haha, he can send his head over. Even Chen Feng frowned slightly, feeling that Wei Xiaos move was inappropriate. Wei Xiao, who normally had a whole pile of trash words to say, was currently unusually quiet, his face unprecedentedly calm and steady. He didnt retreat and advanced instead. He moved perfectly to avoid the berserker thiefs blade, and at the same time, he moved forward, linking up his moves and filling up the light arcs. Chen Feng froze for a moment. He was The shadow thief released eight light arcs within the blink of an eye, and it all smashed down on Cong Yis body! He hadnt tried to kill the berserker thief whose damage and defense had been buffed up after the frenzy. What he aimed at was the light priest whod already taken a large amount of damage and whose health bar had already fallen to one third! Cong Yi fell to the ground, and the berserker thief rushed over. Wei Xiao shouted into the headset, Old Bai! Bai Cai might be stunned, but his operations werent slowed down at all. He used the W skill and hit the berserker thief, and Wei Xiao withdrew from the battlefield during the half a second that Asleep was controlled and couldnt move! The scrolling comments exploded, Holy shit, its a fight amongst immortals! He can even manage to send someone back to town like this, Quiet is too fierce! Their side losing their marksman in return for the opposing sides support, its really a loss. Brother, sober up a little. This wasnt a trade, it was a save! Indeed, having the shadow thief kill off Cong Yi after theyd lost their marksman was enough to make up for most of their losses. Although Asleep had still obtained a huge advantage in this wave, Wei Xiao had already made use of the available opportunity, pushing to the extreme. For example: Weaker junglers might have already started fighting with the berserker thief at this point and finally ended up giving the other side a kill. A relatively more normal jungler might have retreated and waited for another opportunity. It was only Wei Xiao, whod chosen in that moment to make the decision to strive for the teams best interests! The point was, he had even succeeded! Chen Feng looked at Bai Cai. Sure enough, this support of his who was even lazier than Asleep, had finally gotten serious. Chen Feng had never questioned Bai Cais ability. He was no worse than any of the top level supports, and he was even expected to be able to reach the tier of a god-level support. However, this kid had no ambition! In the e-sports circle, not making mistakes was a mistake of its own. Players that didnt make mistakes werent perfect because they didnt make mistakes. Instead, it was because they stayed out of the way and didnt need to take the blame for anything. Bai Cai was precisely this kind of balanced player who didnt make any mistakes. From the start of this group battle, the shadow thief and berserker thief had become crazy to the naked eye. Their teammates werent players from first class teams, but they werent at the casual player level either. They were inspired by their explosive fight and played 200% of their strength in the effort to cooperate with them. Asleep snatched away Wei Xiaos advantage, but Wei Xiao instantly got even. Wei Xiao invaded Asleeps jungle, and Asleep led Cong Yi to chase and intercept. It was a free match game, but it was incredibly fun to watch. At one point, the scrolling comments couldnt even speak anymore and could only shout 66666. Sure enough, watching games where the opponents were about even was the most exciting; sure enough, games played without reservation were the most exciting; sure enough, young passion burned in the most brilliant way! In the final group fight that determined the outcome of the game, the red side had the advantage. Wei Xiao launched an ambush and killed the blue sides top-laner. It was a four against five situation, and it seemed to be a sure win. However, 3Us Cong Yi reversed the situation by using flash, followed by his Q skill ultimate move. A wall slammed down from a distance and locked in three people from the red team. When Asleeps scythe locked in on their mid-lane, Bai Cais heart thumped. Wei Xiao: Save your skills! Unfortunately, it was too late. Bai Cai used his ultimate move and sent a wave of heals towards the mid-lane. However, the mid-laner was too squishy and couldnt be saved at all beneath the blue sides explosive damage, and the kill went to Asleep. Now It was over. Wei Xiao cut down the blue sides core DPS, while Asleep was like a wolf charging into a herd of sheep, tearing up the red teams formation and causing unilateral slaughter! Bai Cai fell to the ground, and his expression was very ugly. Wei Xiao barely managed to kill three of the blue sides people, but finally, he was toppled by Asleep and Cong Yi. Defeat! The red side lost. xiin: oh dear~ Chapter 47.2: Your opponents were too crappy, right! Wonderful! Amazing! So much to look forward to! The national competition should hurry up and start, I really want to watch them play in a regular game! If they can fight like this in a free match, then wont they slaughter until their eyes are bloody in the official arena!? Even though Quiet lost, he was so handsome ahhhhh, Im in love with this little lunatic! Little lunatic? Say, hes really quite impressive. This shadow thief is really crazy enough! The situation in the live broadcast studio couldnt be seen from the training room. It was the official live broadcast, and there were countless channels to watch. Everyone could watch the players they liked. The scrolling comments only flew around in the live broadcast room, and it couldnt be seen from the game. Bai Cai didnt say anything. Wei Xiao tsked, This kid Asleep is really good. A year ago, hed felt that he had boundless potential. Now, he was really growing rapidly. It had only been one season, yet he was already so terrifying. Sure enough, the place that honed players the most was the professional arena. Chen Feng looked at Bai Cai. His lips moved, but he ultimately didnt say anything. There hadnt been much of a difference in strength between the two sides in this game. The three passers-by from the red and blue sides had all played well, and no major problems could be found. Wei Xiao and Asleep were very much equal, and neither of them was worse than the other. What had really determined victory or defeat was actually 3Us vice-captain, Cong Yi. Cong Yi had landed a control skill at the critical moment, sending the red side down the path towards death. On the contrary, Bai Cais operations hadnt been bad, and having the support save the c-position mid-laner was a routine thing to do. However, hed missed the big picture. Wei Xiaos save your skills had been spoken to him. Unfortunately, the battlefield changed rapidly, and reminders given orally could never be faster than instinct. Bai Cai hadnt saved his skills, resulting in a situation where their own side was short a critical heal. Saving the mid-lane was something that should be done, but in the situation at that time, the mid-laner couldnt have been saved no matter what. If hed saved his ultimate move, even if the berserker thiefs passive was activated, the red side would still have had the chance to fight four against four. As for Wei Xiao, whod managed to remain standing until the very end, if hed had Bai Cai beside him to take damage and control the opponents, it was hard to say what the outcome of the game wouldve been. In the situation where everyone was evenly matched, even a small gap in ability would be enlarged indefinitely. This was the gap between Bai Cai and Cong Yi. Old Bai? Bai Cai came back to his senses. Wei Xiao urged him, Hurry up! Weve become a duck egg zero again. Do you want to be deducted or something. Bai Cai had been the one to set up the room, and he was the one who had to click the matching button. Bai Cai breathed in lightly and clicked to start matching. Wei Xiao glanced at the scoreboard, The captain already has 12 points! He asked Lu Feng, Solo again? He was so jealous, so jealous, he was about to be so sour that he was going to start emitting sour bubbles! Lu Feng: Doubles. The probability of encountering a doubles match when solo queueing wasnt low. Two people queueing on their own would be forced into becoming teammates and playing in a doubles game together. Wei Xiao: The doubles finished so quickly! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao understood, Your opponents were too crappy, right! This so-called Close cant play doubles didnt mean that Close couldnt win doubles. As long as the opponents were crappy enough, Close didnt need to consider his teammate as a human being at all and could win the game in minutes. At this moment, FTWs points were a little miserable. Wei Xiao and Bai Cai were still where theyd started, Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had also had one win and one loss, and there were only Closes 12 points that showed up in the total score. Wei Xiaos competitive spirit burst out, Old Bai, follow me in this match! Bai Cai was stunned. Wei Xiao entered the game and took the berserker thief. He asked Bai Cai, Want to try the light priest? Cong Yis light priest flashed across Bai Cais mind, Why not. Wei Xiao chuckled, Its hard to cooperate with the shadow thief. This game, big brother will take you up to heaven. Bai Cai: Dont mess around. Bai Cais expression was clearly more relaxed than before, Laozi doesnt want to have a negative score! Wei Xiao: Dont worry, if we end up with a negative score, our friendship will be over! Chen Feng moved his gaze away and went to look at Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle. Some things couldnt be rushed. They could be fixed if they were discovered. Besides, there was still a Little Lunatic Wei. In this match, Wei Xiao and Bai Cai didnt match up with any celebrities. The berserker thief was very suitable as a jungler core. As soon as their teammates saw Wei Xiao and Bai Cais choices, they knew that their support would follow the jungler, and the marksman picked a talent hero with a high self-preservation ability. At the start of the game, Wei Xiao successfully reached level 4 first. Berserker thieves only obtained their passive ability once they had their ultimate move. He went to support the bottom lane and instantly gained the advantage for their team. Because Quiet had been too brilliant in the previous match, many viewers had switched to his channel to watch his fights. At this moment, they watched as he took the berserker thief while Bai Cai played the light priest, and were all laughing: FTWs newcomer is really hard headed. He tries to get up again from wherever he loses! Not bad, not bad. Others would be scared after losing, but he actually becomes inspired to overcome. Say, this berserker thief is really good. Aiya, look at our Brother Vegetable, this light priest isnt any worse than Cong Yis! This wall was used well! Damn, its simply an exact copy of Asleep and Cong Yi! Using whatever they learn on the spot?! Thats really quick! Bai Cai and Wei Xiao won the game, and it was a straightforward and relaxed win. Wei Xiao turned his head to look at Bai Cai, Brother Cai can really do it. Bai Cai: Nonsense. Wei Xiao called out, Coach! Chen Feng looked over. Wei Xiao: Brother Cai needs more intense stimulation. Its better to change the rules. If our total points are lower than the captains, well deduct money! Lu Feng was already at 15 points, while the two of them were at 6 points. One point was 5,000, and nine points was Bai Cai exploded, Wei Xiao, f*ck your daddy! Coach Chen was too lazy to deal with these two brats. It was another game. As soon as they entered the game, Wei Xiao was happy, Our luck is really good today! Bai Cai noticed the ID on the opposite sideCCL&P.Gary. How the hell was this good! What kind of stinky luck was this? Theyd just saved up six points, but now they were going to be defeated at L&Ps hands! Bai Cai really hated duck eggs right now. He didnt want to eat duck eggs for half a year! Wei Xiao greeted the opposite side, Old G, wheres your captain! It was rare for Old G and Yuan Ze not to double queue. Old G had noticed Wei Xiao a long time ago. His martian text bounced around everywhere, Only Weak chiknz double Q! The vast majority of teammates who originally didnt understand Chinese were even less able to understand this text. Wei Xiao was kind enough to help Old G translate into English, God G said that only weak chickens double queue. Old Gs team had two groups of double queued players. Brother Gs teammates instantly went, Old G: Quiet, ur plotting 2 kill me! Wei Xiao: What are you thinking. Old G: ??? Wei Xiao: If I were plotting to kill you, Id only start now. As he said so, he spoke to Bai Cai over the headset, Old Bai, come over. Our goal this game is to hammer Gary until he explodes! Speaking of which, Yuan Ze was actually solo queueing Close was also solo queueing These two people wouldnt bump into each other, right? Marshal and Closes solo. He kinda wanted to see it! Of course, what Wei Xiao wanted to do now was to first beat Gary, who was fighting on his own, into seclusion. In just ten minutes, Old G was jumping around in agitation, Quiet, youre done for! Hed already switched back to English. Wei Xiao was born to trash talk, Come, come, come, let me experience what it feels like to be done for. In this game, Old Gs luck was really bad. It was already miserable enough that he had to queue on his own, but the teammates he encountered were also reincarnations of vegetables. He couldnt beat Wei Xiao no matter what, but Gary: You just wait. Our L&Ps points will definitely be in the top three. Tonight, Im going to pick out you guys for the training match! Beating him up in a two against one in a free match game didnt count. If he had the ability, then he should come up and fight in a training match! Wei Xiaos eyebrows went up in happiness when he heard this, Thats great. Hammering you into exploding also gets me a training match. What great value! Gary: All of a sudden, Wei Xiaoxiao discovered a great way to become rich. So what if their FTWs total points werent enough to enter the top three? As long as the teams in the top three were ridiculed until their aggro was full, wouldnt they take the initiative to come and fight them? Wei Xiao, whod originally just wanted to pick on Gary, became more energetic. There was a crackle as he used a full set of skills and sent Old G to heaven. Wei Xiao: Brother G, does it feel good? Gary: Quiet, youre dead ahhhhh!!! Wei Xiao blew him a kiss, Seeing how Ive made you feel so good, dont let me down tonight. The Chinese fans who were watching the match: Although, even though It really did feel great! This shameless cub was simply like a breath of fresh air in the China competition zone! He made people feel inexplicably refreshed and comfortable. What was up with that! Chapter 48: God G, please let me have the hammering I want Wei Xiao really didnt show any mercy at all. The red side already had an advantage in hero selection and had snatched up the berserker thief. Gary, whod been left with the relatively clumsy power thief, was really suffering a loss. Adding on his teammates daydreaming operations, his jungle area became Wei Xiaos and Bai Cais back garden in the early stages. They could go in at will, take away his economy, and even take away Old Gs head while they were at it. They were as arrogant as they could possibly be. Once this economic snowball picked up speed, there was no way to stop the car at all. Wei Xiao had started to get a feel for the berserker thief, and Bai Cais light priest was also played very well. These two were also old teammates, and their cooperation allowed them to play without any restrictions. No matter how amazing Gary was, it was really difficult for him to make a turnaround while being pressured like this. It was still okay before hed thrown down the gauntlet, but now, hed managed to stimulate Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao had already wanted to hammer him, but now he had even more reason to do so. 20 minutes later, Bai Cai, whod been waiting to catch Gary in the dragon pit, smashed down a wall. Old Gs eyes were quick, and his hands were fast, but the berserker thiefs scythe was even faster. In the moment when he was locked in Old G could hear the devil whispering in his ear, Does it feel great? You have been killed! Fuck! In the L&P training room, Gary was jumping around in fury. The coach looked at him, Whats the matter? Gary was going crazy from anger, How are we ranked! Coach: Second. Pro was first. Gary: Lets make an appointment with FTW for tonights training match! Yuan Ze, who was beside him, glanced over. The coach analyzed calmly, Its not very appropriate. FTWs score isnt worth us Gary raged, Laozi would pick them even if their score was zero! Damn it, if he couldnt vent this anger, he wouldnt sleep at all tonight! Fortunately, Wei Xiao couldnt hear his words. If he could hear them He would definitely insist on thanking him and then accompanying him to feel good enough to go to heaven. This match was a very satisfying one. After winning the game, Wei Xiao commented, Old Gs power thief is no good. Chen Feng looked over their game, Hes never been good at blue collar junglers. The so-called blue collar jungler referred to players like Pros jungler Park Guizhi. What he used was a functional talent spec. He didnt take the initiative to build up the rhythm of the game, and instead did his best to give all his economy to their core, Kim Sung-hyun. He stabilized the pace of the game in the early stage, and in the later stages, as long as he could take down the other sides c-position, Pro wouldve won the majority of the game. L&P was a team that focused on the jungler as their core, and Gary was their core damage dealer. Like Close, most of his daily training was spent on high damage talents like the berserker thief, shadow thief, and death knight. Talents like the power thief that were focused more on function were not his strong point. That was why Wei Xiao could pressure and hammer him from the beginning to end. This was what made Gary so unwilling. If hed been able to take a berserker thief, he wouldve been able to smear Wei Xiao and Bai Cai into the ground. Wei Xiao didnt care about these things. He really wished Gary would come to hammer him that night. If he had Garys contact information, he would probably even send a message: God G, please let me experience the hammering that I asked for. These two games went quite smoothly for Wei Xiao and Bai Cai. They obtained 12 points in one fell swoop, and FTWs points allowed them to climb up from sixth to fifth, which was actually quite difficult to achieve. Everyone was involved in their matches, so Bai Cai clicked to continue matching. Wei Xiao was looking forward to it, Bai Cai, you can do it. Lets see who you manage to draw. Bai Cais hand trembled, and he mumbled, Give me a weak opponent, let laozi have an easy win His prayers were answered. Of the other three teammates in their team, two of them were from the team ranked second from the bottom, and one was from the team at third from the bottom. Wei Xiao: Youre pretty good. Bai Cai: He wanted weak opponents, not weak chickens on his side who could only peck at rice! Wei Xiao had a bad habit. When he used a hero, he would keep using it after he became used to it. Others might become tired or bored of using the same one and want to switch to a new hero, but Wei Xiao was especially persistent and could continue for a particularly long time. He wouldnt give up until he had engraved the usage of the hero into his muscles and bones. This was a problem that all Glory coaches wished their players could have. How wonderful was it?! They wouldnt have to force the players to train! The most famously picky and delicate player in the China competition zone needed to be mentionedCCEurostar. His hero pool was as deep as the sea, and there was no shooter he couldnt use. Oh, before he was sent into seclusion by the Wei Xiao hammer, he could also use top lane heroes, but the heroes that he retained muscle memory for were rare. The coach wanted him to train more, but he spent his days attacking newbies or surfing the internet, and could even use the theoretical knowledge that hed stealthily picked up from their learning tyrant captain in order to battle it out with their coach. The coach was in a daze when he heard it and went to ask Captain Fu. Fu Li sneered and wrote out a short paper very quickly, tossing it over to Eurostar, Get it? Eurostar had horrible grades at school. All of his skill points had been put into gaming. How could he understand what was what? Fu Li: If you dont understand, Ill teach you. Eurostar: ! Fu Li: Or, you can go and practice the fire hunter? Eurostar bailed superfast, suppressing his tears as he used the fire hunter to rank for a full day and night. On the other hand, Wei Xiao didnt need to be forced. When he was inspired, he could play so much his teammates wanted to throw up! For example, Bai Cai. Originally, he hadnt been very good at the light priest. By now, hed already started to realize that he would have to queue with Wei Xiao and continue on the whole way with it Brother Vegetables muscle memory didnt have to be actively generated. It was all forced! It was enough that their teammates were crappy in this game, but their opponents were god level strong. Wei Xiao saw their IDs and smiled so hard his eyes curvedCCPros Kim Sung-hyun. Bai Cai: F*ck! He was going to go wash his hands; his hands were too unlucky! Wei Xiao was already nagging, God Kim, youre solo queueing? Indeed, Kim Sung-hyun, who was practically a conjoined twin with Li Heran, was actually queueing on his own. Could it be that it was faster to obtain points when they queued individually? Why were all the teams in the top three single queueing. Oh 3U, who was third, had been double queueing just now. Wei Xiaos thoughts started to wander again. Would the single queueing Kim Sung-hyun run into Close? In fact, Wei Xiao was very curious. How could a pure marksman solo take down the heavens and the earth? Although hed seen Lu Fengs marksman before, Wei Xiao was very certain that Kim Sung-hyuns style was different from his. So, how did this peak level marksman, who stood in the Temple of Glory, solo? Kim Sung-hyun was also quite surprised, Wheres your captain? Wei Xiao: Hes solo queueing. Kim Sung-hyun: Wei Xiaos typed words couldnt hide his jealousy, He just started. Lets finish this game quickly. Maybe you can match up with him in the next game. Kim Sung-hyun: Wei Xiao was suddenly inspired, Did you choose to solo queue just so that you could solo with my captain? Kim Sung-hyun replied immediately, How could that be. Im not Shi, why would I want to solo with him? Wei Xiao: ??? Kim Sung-hyun translated for him, Shi is Marshal. Bai Cai, who was the only other person who could understand Chinese, Wei Xiao praised, This nickname is wonderful. In the L&P training room, Yuan Ze, who was currently solo queueing, sneezed. Although Wei Xiao and Kim Sung-hyun had similar thoughts and could talk together quite happily, there was no emotional leeway when it came to the actual game. Kim Sung-hyun: Targeting me? Wei Xiao sent a smiley face and was very polite, Yes. Kim Sung-hyun was amused, Stinky kid. Kim Sung-hyun was obviously different from Old G. If nothing else, his luck was enough to hang the other party. Old Gs power thief was really useless, but Kim Sung-hyuns storm hunter was amazing enough to soar. As a god level ADC, there were no marksman talents that Kim Sung-hyun couldnt use. From the frost hunter that stood still to cause damage to the storm hunter that moved all over the field, he could use all of them and use them however he liked. Wei Xiao understood from their first encounter why all four players from the Team of Gods were so good at soloing. This storm hunter was like a butterfly flying around the canyon. It was so flexible and nimble that it couldnt be touched at all! Wei Xiao had watched Kim Sung-hyuns doubles matches before. When playing doubles, because there was Li Heran, Kim Sung-hyun mostly played like a standing damage dealer marksman. Firstly, he trusted Lin Heran and knew that his captain could provide him with enough opportunities to deal damage. Secondly, marksmen who could stand there and shoot could deal terrible damage in the later stages; regardless of who they faced, they were all nothing beneath his arrows. Kim Sung-hyun naturally wouldnt choose marksman heroes that needed protection when he queued on his own. Other support players and Li Herans support were like two different beasts altogether. Bai Cai looked at Kim Sung-hyuns dazzling operations and rolled his eyes in his heart. Damn it Wei Xiaoxiao would definitely let it get to his head again! Was there any cure for his problem where he gained pleasure from facing the strong?! Unfortunately, their team was very useless. Between the top lane, middle lane, and marksman, all three lanes collapsed. Wei Xiao tried to gank Kim Sung-hyun like crazy but was only able to barely kill him once. And they had only managed to kill him when Wei Xiao brought in Bai Cai, and they had fought two against one. Oh, the marksman on Wei Xiaos side had long been killed by God Kims skills and was lying on the floor watching them fight. Kim Sung-hyun toppled to the ground and typed, Not bad. Although it was two against one, hed dodged Bai Cais control skill a long time ago. Wei Xiao was still able to move around his raindrops and use a set of skills to take his life. It was really something. Wei Xiao didnt waste time typing. He rushed into the opposite sides jungle area and after searching and waiting, managed to find the Kim Sung-hyun whod just resurrected. Kim Sung-hyuns support was also useless. Not only did he not follow the marksman, he wasnt even able to provide vision. From Kim Sung-hyuns point of view, the little map looked empty and seemed to be quite safe. Wei Xiao held his breath and waited for the storm hunter to arrive. The storm hunter really did arrive, coming close to the patch of grass near the bottom lane. Old Bai! Bai Cai immediately tossed out his ultimate move Wei Xiaos scythe moved at the same time, making the audience hold their breath in anticipation. Damn, it cant be avoided. Even if its God Kim Escaped! This storm hunter Its so beautiful. The storm hunter can really step on the rain and fly! Indeed. Kim Sung-hyun had gotten close to the grass, but he hadnt relaxed his vigilance. When Bai Cai released his ultimate move, the storm hunters raindrops had already flown out all over the screen. With a set of continuous moves that tested the speed of his hands to the extreme, he avoided Wei Xiaos sickle and simultaneously smashed down all his damage onto the berserker thief. Bai Cai sucked in a breath, Strong! This was a member of the Team of Gods just like Close! This strength was too terrifying! Wei Xiaos eyes didnt change. When faced with such an amazing storm hunter, he wasnt flustered at all. On the contrary, he was calmer and steadier than usual. The storm hunter landed. The berserker thief, who was at critical health, waved his scythe and locked onto the storm hunter. Wei Xiao: Brother Cai! Bai Cai abruptly came back to his senses. Although the shield was a little late, it still made it in time. Wei Xiao dashed over, and the storm hunter was instantly left with only half his health. Kim Sung-hyun wasnt an easy target. Wei Xiaos ability to seize opportunities had surprised him, but the battlefield changed quickly, so he never underestimated anyone and never took things lightly. So After the cooldown ended, the storm hunter once again stepped on the rain. A rain arrow shot through the raindrops and stabbed the berserker thief. The light priests shield burst instantly, and the sliver of blood left on the berserker thief wasnt enough to support him. However, in the moment when he fell to the ground, Wei Xiao moved forward again and took the storm hunter down with him. They died together! Bai Cai, who was still alive, If they were to go over the replay of this game, his salary for this entire month would be deducted. In this fight against Kim Sung-hyun, he was thoroughly crappy! Losing without fighting. How could he make such a low-level mistake?! Two years ago, hed worked desperately to keep up with Wei Xiao. Now, after hed been a professional player for two years, hed still fallen behind? Bai Cais arms felt numb, and he had goosebumps all over. They lost the game. Wei Xiao leaned back in his chair and sighed, Amazing. He was utterly convinced of this defeat. The Team of Gods was really tough. If he wanted to catch up to them, he would need to continue working hard! However, he would definitely catch up to them! Wei Xiao turned to look at Bai Cai, Whats wrong? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao was surprised, Going into seclusion? Its not that bad, Kim Sung-hyun is indeed very strong, but he died at our hands three times. Bai Cai choked: It was at your hands that he had died three times. Wei Xiao patted him on the shoulder, Next time we play against a storm hunter, well take the holy priest. Well bounce him around. Who told him to fly, fly, fly? Does he really think hes a butterfly? Bai Cai: Can you stop spoiling the atmosphere! Damn it, he was just reflecting on himself! Wei Xiao was just about to tell him to hurry up and start the next game when he heard Chen Feng say, So coincidental? Wei Xiao was close to Lu Feng. He leaned his head over, Old Dog Yuan! Yes, Lu Feng had entered a doubles match from his solo queue. For better or worse, Yuan Ze, who was also solo queueing, had been matched up with him as his teammate. L&P training room. Yuan Ze: F*ck! Gary was currently nursing his grudge, What? Did you also match up with Little Lunatic Q? He stuck his head over, Holy shit! Yuan Ze had gone into the solo queue with some ideas in mind For example, if he ended up having to solo with Lu Feng because the situation forced him to This was something he was helpless about and couldnt be considered a default on their agreement (let alone, after having it happen once, it wouldnt matter if it happened again). Hed never thought that luck would be such a dog. Hed indeed encountered Lu Feng, but it was as teammates. Yuan Ze had vowed that he would never play solo against Lu Feng. It wasnt that he didnt want to solo with him, but because he felt sorry for Close after everything that had happened back then. Yuan Ze had never vowed not to play doubles with Close. However, he really didnt want to play doubles with him from the very bottom of his heart. The reason? It was shameful if he couldnt keep up, and even more shameful if he could. Old Dog Yuan would feel ashamed either way! Compared to everyone elses surprise, Lu Feng was calm, What are you playing with? He was asking Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze was just about to say divine warrior when he saw that Lu Feng had already locked in the divine warrior for himself. Yuan Ze: ??? Lu Feng: Is divine warrior the only thing you can play? Yuan Ze: He took the death knight. If matching with Close was already a nightmare, then when he saw who their opponents were, Yuan Ze was thoroughly destroyed. Pro.Kim Sung-hyun, Pro.Li Heran. Wei Xiao didnt have time to care about his own matching. He was in a state of shock, Fate is really a wonderful thing. Chapter 49.1: You guys met in the last game? The canyon had four people in it, but Yuan Ze wasnt the only one there who wanted to die. Kim Sung-hyun was also stunned silly. Fate was really a strange and wonderful thing. The fans in the South Korean competition zone who were watching their own oppas matches were already high with excitement. In the last match, Kim Sung-hyun had solo queued and gone up against Wei Xiao. In this match, he also hadnt immediately gone to form a double queue with Li Heran. Hed continued with his single queue, and Li Heran had also been in the single queue. Li Heran waited for a long time for a game. Kim Sung-hyun had just finished a match with Wei Xiao and was a little overeager, so he hadnt thought twice before clicking the match button. Who couldve known that they would both enter a game at the same time. On the FTW side, the teammates who queued at the same time ended up as opponents against each other. It was different for Pro. The Koi CP was worthy of its reputation, and two single queued teammates could end up being paired up as teammates by the system. Indeed In this doubles match, all four people in the canyon had been in the singles queue. Yet as a result, they were all matched together by the system and entered a doubles game. This was the magic that could happen in the single queue. Opponents, teammates, forced marriage anything was possible! Fans in the South Korean competition zone had already noticed Kim Sung-hyun and Li Herans marriage line-up despite the distance between them. They had long since covered the scrolling comments with their excitement. At this time, when they noticed their opponents, they grew even happier. Enemies were bound to meet on a narrow road! All the members of the Team of Gods in the winter trainings group A ended up gathered together in this arrangement. It was really Absolutely crazy (beautifully done)! What made it even better was that Kim Sung-hyun had used the storm hunter in the previous round and been pressured and suppressed by the berserker thief and light priest. His heart was stuffed full of anger. Although hed won the game, he was very unhappy about being targeted like this by someone from the younger generation. God Kims evil taste was well known. If he was ever targeted by a jungler, he would definitely have to abuse them back. How did he abuse them? He would first start by recalling the details of the junglers operations. So, in Kim Sung-hyun and Li Herans hero selection interface (they were unable to see their opponents at this time), Kim Sung-hyun didnt hesitate at all before choosing the berserker thief. Li Heran hadnt played with him in the previous match, but he could still guess the reason for it, Which berserker thief? Kim Sung-hyun: Quiet. Li Heran: FTWs new top-lane? Kim Sung-hyun: Yes. Li Heran: You lost? Kim Sung-hyun: How could that be! Although he hadnt lost, Kim Sung-hyun suspected that he would die in the hands of this berserker thief one day. That was why he wanted to preempt him and figure out how Wei Xiao played, so that he could abuse him into crying and wailing during an official match. Li Heran casually took the light priest. The compatibility between the light priest and berserker thief was extremely high. So, after they entered the game, Kim Sung-hyun, who used marksman all year long, had taken the berserker thief. He didnt think it was a big deal. Looking at the entire Group A, if he and Li Heran were teamed up together, there was nobody they had to worry about in a doubles game. Why bully children by using a marksman? It was pretty good to just use a berserker thief. And then Kim Sung-hyun actually wanted to die, Brother, are my eyes blurred? Old Dog Yuan and Close? What kind of nightmare combination was this? His vision wasnt blurry. He must have gone blind! Li Heran: Kim Sung-hyun abruptly stood up, Old Park, come and play a round of berserker thief! Pros coach pushed him back into his seat, Play properly. Kim Sung-hyun: Those who often walked near the river would have wet shoes; Kim Sung-hyun had really never thought that he would fear a doubles game! Wei Xiaos eyes were sharp, God Kim took the berserker thief, hey, it seemed that my berserker thief made him really happy in the last game. Lu Feng stared at the screen and cleared his soldiers, You guys met in the last game? Wei Xiao: Yes, God Kim is single queuing. I took very good care of him. Lu Feng: Did you win? Wei Xiao was annoyed, We lost. His storm hunter is too good at flying. Lu Feng: Death count? Wei Xiao: Three times. Lu Feng: Im asking how many times you died. Me? Ah, Wei Xiao was embarrassed, Four times. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao was curious about why the captain would ask about this, but then he saw the divine warrior on the screen stack himself up with several layers of buffs. The spear was inserted into the ground outside the enemys tower, and Lu Feng spoke a single word to Yuan Ze, Go. Yuan Ze, whod heard the dialogue between Lu Feng and Wei Xiao over his headset, Old Kim, youre on your own! The death knight was also a top-lane hero, but it had explosive DPS and was a type of talent that Yuan Ze often used. The death knight and the divine warrior could be considered as the best combination for top-laners in a doubles game. The divine warrior tended more towards support, while the death knight could provide the DPS. Although there were many combinations that had a natural advantage over this pairing, it wasnt hard for them to deal with a berserker thief like Kim Sung-hyun. No matter how fierce of a doubles competition championship pair they were, hed taken a hero that he wasnt strong at and could only wait to lose. Let alone, they also had a top jungler, Close, who knew how to abuse a berserker thief even with his eyes closed. Yuan Ze charged into the tower and landed a set of skills on Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyun cursed, Stinky thing! Although he wasnt familiar with the berserker thief, a professional players game consciousness was deeply ingrained. With Li Herans protection, Kim Sung-hyun wasnt so bad that he would be killed beneath his own tower at the start of the game. That was what he thought And his movements had been quite good. He should be able to maintain his little life. The divine warriors spear that was left outside the tower suddenly moved. As a functional top-lane talent spec, the divine warrior exchanged a portion of his DPS in return for a long-distance, ranged attack. From the moment the spear landed, the divine warrior could initiate an ultimate move. Kim Sung-hyuns nerves were stretched taut, Not good! Years of experience with getting cut down had long nurtured his powerful instincts. The spear split into three, passing through Yuan Zes body and stabbing straight at Kim Sung-hyun. First Blood! Kim Sung-hyun toppled over. The live broadcast channel was going crazy. What a handsome divine warrior! Daddy Close is online, teaching me how to play the divine warrior! Awesome! This ultimate moves timing wasnt off at all. It was completely accurate, and the key point is that hed accurately predicted the berserker thiefs position. I can understand it, but I cant do it. Bye bye. About that did you notice that the divine warriors ultimate move passed through God Yuan and charged at God Kim? It seemed like it was one spear that shot through both people. Inside the canyon, a heros abilities wouldnt cause direct direct damage to its teammates and would only travel straight through. Yuan Ze was shot by the divine warriors spear and didnt lose a single bit of health, but as he sat there in front of the computer He could feel Little Closes killing intent. Cough Old Dog Yuans heart was hollow. The game was half over. Kim Sung-hyun had died four times, no more, no less. These four kills had all been taken by Lu Feng. Yuan Ze tsked and said, How indulgent. Close was clearly targeting Kim Sung-hyun for revenge, getting back at him for killing Quiet four times. Lu Feng was wearing a headset, and the people beside him couldnt hear Yuan Zes words. Lu Feng ignored him. Yuan Ze realized that the words hed said couldnt be heard by anyone else, so he typed instead, Your divine warrior is pretty good. Lu Feng replied coolly, Mm. Wei Xiao, who was sitting to the side, saw this and spoke loudly, Stronger than yours! Yuan Ze: This little bastard! Yuan Ze continued to type, Arent you going to go queue? What are you looking over here for? Wei Xiao was afraid that Yuan Ze wouldnt be able to hear him. He came closer to Lu Feng, and practically stuck himself up against Lu Fengs cheek to speak into his headset, Im following the captain to learn how to play the divine warrior. His voice was very proud, and he didnt hide his flamboyant behavior at all. Lu Fengs fingertips trembled, but he didnt even blink as he blocked Yuan Zes words. Glory had a system that allowed users to block messages. Sometimes, when players encountered mouth cannon kings, they could directly and unilaterally block their messages so that they were out of sight, out of mind. Of course this blocking was equivalent to shielding. Lu Feng couldnt see Yuan Zes words, but that didnt mean that Yuan Ze wasnt still talking. Yuan Ze typed, How about you come to L&P and learn from me. Old Dog Yuan was teasing little children in order to balance his mentality, When big brother started playing the divine warrior, your captain wasnt even as old as you are now. His keyboard clacked as he typed out a whole bunch, but there was no action from Wei Xiao on the other side. Yuan Ze clicked open the economic stats panel and took a look Oh, hed been blocked by Close. Ummm. Chapter 49.2: Our hard work paid off! Those who were watching the battle stream could see what Yuan Ze had said. The fans were laughing so hard they were almost cramping up! They didnt know what had been said on the headsets of both sides, but they could see Yuan Zes continuous trash talk. How funny was this scene? Later, someone made a clip and put it up on a certain media station, attracting a screen full of hahahahahahaha. The title of the clip video was calledCC How about you come to L&P and learn how to be a sand sculpture. Lu Fengs calm and understated block added a rich and colorful segment to Yuan Zes black history. But this all happened later. The world war between the Team of Gods wasnt yet over. Lu Feng: Are you fighting or not? Yuan Zes heart was tense, Fighting. Lu Feng: Oh. Yuan Ze, who understood him very well, just had to open his mouth and ask, If I dont want to fight Lu Feng: Then I wont treat you as a person. Yuan Ze: F*ck! Sure enough! In a doubles match, Close could directly crush the opposite side in a one against two situation if the opposing team wasnt particularly strong. How could he fight one against two? It was by not treating his teammate as a person. Yuan Ze thought to himself: Youre f*cking already not treating me like a human right now, okay! On the other hand, his fighting spirit was rising up. Back then, he hadnt been able to keep up with this stinky kid. How could he be unable to keep up with him now? The current him often double queued with Old G, and had long adapted to cooperating with thieves. However Todays Close had taken the divine warrior, and he himself was the damage dealer. This realization stunned Yuan Ze for a moment. In the second half, after Lu Feng killed Kim Sung-hyun four times, the situation in the game began to change. The previous divine warrior had been played very much according to Lu Fengs style. It was oppressive and murderous, like a cheetah hunting down its prey. It waited for the right opportunity to move and killed with every hit. It was indeed the great demon king! But at this time, the divine warrior began to actually resemble a divine warrior. The spear was no longer used to pierce enemies. Instead, it was used to protect his teammates. The terrible pressure that had covered half of the enemys side of the canyon and pushed the other side into a narrow corner dissipated. Instead, it covered their own side of the canyon and became a powerful shield that had no dead corners. Yuan Ze was shocked. After he killed off the berserker thief with ease, he finally realizedCC Close had changed. The tough young man, whod once been a sharp blade that stabbed straight at the enemy, had grown up. The lightning and thunder had faded, and the sky was blue and clear. Vast, gentle, and even stronger than before. Four years ago, the Yuan Ze whod only played for two years hadnt understood how to cooperate with the youngest member of their team. The 17 year old youth had been like a sword, and he had been even less able to understand how to pull back. Then, they had left. Theyd left Close to prop up the collapsed FTW on his own. Time and a thorny path had settled into his temperament, reforming him into the Lu Feng in front of Yuan Ze now. It had been past one oclock in the morning when Kim Sung-hyuns message had arrived and stimulated Yuan Ze. Kim Sung-hyun said, Im going to sign up for the singles competition. Yuan Ze had held his mobile phone and fallen into a daze for half a beat before going over to knock on his door directly, You Kim Sung-hyun sighed, Avoiding a fight isnt true respect. Kim Sung-hyun continued, This is what Close told me. Yuan Ze was stunned. Kim Sung-hyun went on, Back then, we all decided to leave on our own, so we shouldnt put on this fake and hypocritical facade of regret. On the eve of FTWs dissolution, everyones hearts had been in turmoil. Close wanted to buy FTW, but he hadnt told his teammates. It wasnt that he hid it on purpose, but that he couldnt say it. It was uncertain whether Close could buy the club. This wasnt a matter of whether or not the money was in place, but also related to the complex relationships within the transaction. Money and power were both indispensable. Close hadnt said anything out of consideration for them. Because once he said it, what could they do? If they didnt contact new clubs and the acquisition ultimately failed, should they wait to be arbitrarily distributed by FTWs management? They couldnt afford to take this risk, so Close hadnt said anything and had tried his best on his own. However, how could they really be oblivious to it? It was impossible. At least, Yuan Ze had known. He had known for a long time that Closes family was unusual. Although hed never mentioned anything about his family, the Lu family was definitely not an ordinary one. So, when Close had told him to wait for a while, Yuan Ze had already guessed. However, he hadnt waited. He hadnt dared to wait, and he hadnt wanted to wait. Just like Kim Sung-hyun had said, leaving had been their own decision, yet theyd ultimately put on a facade of regret. Who was it for? For Close? Or perhaps it was for their own cruelty. CCFor themselves, whod given up their teammates, given up the team, and burned down the results of their efforts. Yuan Ze didnt participate in the singles competition. Was it for the sake of letting Close win? No, he was just afraid to face Close. Afraid to see a crushed Close. Afraid to see a broken Close. Afraid to see a Close who had been destroyed by their joint efforts. Now This unexpected doubles game really let Yuan Ze experience something. Close had never fallen. Hed stood alone in the ruins and held up a bright stretch of sky on his young shoulders. A vast and gentle blue sky that belonged to the new FTW and his teammates! Avoiding a fight wasnt true respect. Yuan Ze spoke lightly, Close, I will be signing up for the singles competition this year. Lu Feng was a little stunned, but his voice was calm, Okay. Three years later, the Team of Gods was about to have a delayed, but genuine showdown. It didnt matter if they werent teammates. They would do their best as opponents! The doubles game ended with God Kims berserker thief coming to a full stop. A high and mighty world champion, a high and mighty doubles competition king, a high and mighty Daddy Kim, lost in a complete mess. Kim Sung-hyun spoke angrily, I didnt lose to the two of them. I lost to He hadnt finished saying the word himself, when Captain Li stabbed at his sore point, Lost to the berserker thief. Kim Sung-hyun: ??? Li Heran continued to stab, Quiets berserker thief. Kim Sung-hyun was offended and sad, Big bro! Li Heran turned his head to look at him, Isnt that the case? Quiet will be FTWs new jungler. Kim Sung-hyun: As childhood friends, Li Heran knew him too well. These words drew blood and stabbed right into the core of what was weighing on Kim Sung-hyuns heart. When he saw Wei Xiaos berserker thief today, hed thought of this almost instantly. Lu Feng wanted to switch positions, and this little lunatic would become the new jungler. That was why he was so persistent in trying the berserker thief. As a result, he ran into Yuan Ze and Lu Feng, and was tortured miserably. Kim Sung-hyun let out a long breath and leaned back into his e-sports chair, Ah, in the end, who was accommodating who? Did Close like to play jungler? Or, was it that when he joined the team, only the jungler position had been left for him. As these big brothers of his who always said and expressed that they were accommodating him, had they really ever tried to understand him? The first day of free matching was over. FTW had a bumpy time of it, and their points put them in seventh place. Lu Feng had played a total of seven games and scored 21 points. Bai Cai and Wei Xiao had messed around and played recklessly and finally managed to barely survive with 6 points. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenles luck had been as bad as barren, broken earth, and they had negative scores. Chen Feng didnt scold the two children. Little Ning wasnt skilled enough to even enter the eyes of these beasts, and Yue Wenle was the type to let it all get to his head. It was normal for him not to have played well. It was fine as long as there was improvement. Today was only the first day. The top three on the scoreboard were: L&P, Pro, 3U. The 3U team was very strong this year, and they had also been smart. They didnt hammer themselves at the start of the session and had seized the time to double queue. The doubles team of Asleep and Cong Yi hadnt lost a single game; they were unstoppable. The top three in the rankings could choose a team for their training match. For the sake of the prize pool, they should choose the fourth, fifth, and sixth place. It was because these three teams had the most points. If they won against them, they could accumulate a bigger bonus pool. All the teams thought so, and even the two little ones in FTW thought so. Ning Zhehan whispered to Yue Wenle, Brother Le, in a while, lets continue to double queue. Although the free matching session was over, it didnt prevent the players from continuing by going to score on the international servers. After fighting against other professional players in the same lane, Ning Zhehan had finally realized how big the gap was and was eager to improve. Yue Wenle: Okay. As soon as the two people finished speaking, the selected teams were projected up onto the big screen. The first three teams had submitted their choice through the app in advance, and it meant that their choices would appear at the same time. L&P: FTW. Pro: FTW. 3U: FTW. Everyone at the scene was in an uproar, ??? Wei Xiao was amused and elbowed Bai Cai, Old Bai, look, our hard work paid off! Bai Cai: Its not our, its your!!! xiin: pst, guys, theres a CG giveaway event going on right now! Chapter 50: What kind of ‘captivating team-killer was this?! Out of the 18 teams there, over 90% of them were now confused and stunned. Why had they all picked FTW? Was it because of Close? However, two years ago, FTW had to rely on Closes solo games in order to obtain training matches! Why had they exploded in popularity this year? They then went to look at FTWs points, and it wasnt anything worth fighting over. Let alone 4th place, they werent even 6th. They were a 7th place team. Was it so important to choose them? And the key point was, all of the top three teams had locked in FTW? Why! They didnt get it. Nobody understood it. Only the players whod ended up in games with Wei Xiao and Bai Cai by chance, and also encountered Gary and Kim Sung-hyun as well as Asleep could make an approximate guess. Although they couldnt understand Chinese, the atmosphere of those games were still fresh in their memories If it had been up to them, well, theyd also want to fight against that berserker thief! After the free match session, L&P, Pro, and 3U had all held a brief team meeting. L&P training room. Gary slapped the table, FTW! Laozi wants revenge! The coach was quite rational, Theyre 7th place, and they have a pitiful amount of points. Winning against them wont add much to the prize pool. Gary: I just want to fight him! Yuan Ze had always had a bad sense of humor. Usually, he would purposely play with Old G by choosing the opposite, but todayCC He voted with Gary, FTW, then. Its quite meaningful. He hadnt encountered Wei Xiao in the free matching, but hed run into Close. Sure enough, compared with being teammates, he was more interested in being Closes opponent. Both cores of the team had spoken. The coach thought about it and said, Alright, FTW is really different this year. The small bonus in the bonus pool wasnt something that the rich and powerful teams cared too much about. Whats more, if they really wanted to snatch money, they should do it in the last few days. Right now was just the beginning, and they werent in a hurry. It was a good idea to first feel out their potential opponents. So, L&P chose FTW. At this moment, they really hadnt expected that there would be unforeseen events in this training match! The situation on the Pro side was similar. Kim Sung-hyun hadnt said anything about it on the surface, and he looked like he didnt care, but hed already written down the word Quiet in the little book in his heart. This jungler, oh, this future jungler, or whatever he was going to nip him in the bud! On the 3U side, they actually discussed it for a long time. Asleep: Zzzz Cong Yi: FTW. Manager Zhou thought about it, Making it to the training grounds wasnt easy. We should choose some of the foreign teams. Cong Yi understood his mind. Making an appointment for a training match with FTW was very simple, and the fans wouldnt be very interested in watching it. If they could win against a foreign team, the fans would be willing to spend more. Cong Yi: Fourth place is Europes Black Knights, fifth is the Korean competition zones New, sixth is North Americas PB. Theyre all strong teams. What should we do if we lose? One sentence was enough to poke at Manager Zhous sore spot, Their points Cong Yi sneered, You cant really think that just because our points rank us in third place, were actually third when it comes to strength amongst the 18 teams. Manager Zhou: 3Us coach spoke up, FTW, theyre very different this year. Its quite a good idea to try them out in advance. So it was decided like this. The three teams responsible for submitting their choices had never even dreamed that the other two teams would also choose FTW! Theyd all thought that choosing FTW would be an unexpected choice. Yet as a result They actually ended up all over the street?! Wei Xiaos cheerful appearance gave Chen Feng a headache, Would you not be tired after having to fight three games! Wei Xiao was surprised, Its only three games, whats there to be tired about? Chen Feng: Oh, youre the one who can solo for 48 hours straight. Your energy levels are different from normal people. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had already agreed to go double queue. Now Wei Xiao inspired his teammates, Its alright, all enemies are but paper tigers. We just have to go up and fight. We kill one, we earn one! The two little ones: Although they were a little flustered, they somehow also started to look forward to it a little? After all, it was really cool being fought for by all three of the top three teams. The competition committee itself was stunned a bit silly when faced with this kind of result. Theyd set up this rule so that different teams would be put together. Regardless of whether it was for the live broadcast or for training purposes, it was more exciting to have more teams participating. What the hell was up with the three teams all fighting over the team in the seventh place? Have you guys ever considered the feelings of the fourth, fifth, and sixth place teams?! They worked so hard to accumulate so many points and were just waiting to be picked, yet as a result they were just skipped over? The fourth place team was especially confused. Before coming over, the coach had even given them some psychological preparation, We have the most points. Be careful, we might be picked by all three teams. The Black Knights whod already been mentally prepared, What? This wasnt anything like what theyd talked about! The competition committee quickly tried to fix this bug, The first three teams cant choose the same team. L&P, Pro, and 3U: ??? Wei Xiao was more anxious than they were, Why! It hadnt been easy for him and Bai Cai to fill up their aggro meters, yet they werent actually allowed to deal DPS. That was too much! The people in charge in the competition committee couldnt hear Wei Xiaos words. Otherwise, they would be coughing up blood. They were doing this for FTWs good. It was only the first day of training, yet the strong teams were all lining up to hammer them. How could FTW continue to play after that? The competition committee revised the loophole in its rules, From tomorrow on, the choices will be considered based on priority. The team ranked first has first choice, followed by the second and third place teams choices, and they must all pick different teams. Gary was happy, Were first, so we can choose first! L&P was situated near the front, and everyone could hear Garys voice. The person in charge was just about to speak. Kim Sung-hyun stepped up onto the stage. His face was cold and beautiful as he said, The rules will come into effect tomorrow. How come L&P will get to choose first? He stressed the word tomorrow, emphasizing that he had no intention of giving in. Gary also stepped up, Because were number one! Kim Sung-hyuns eyelashes drooped, and the angle of his eyes matched with his tear mole. He appeared arrogant and willful, If this regulation was known in advance, would we be second? The meaning behind the words was, in order to snatch FTW oh, wait, in order to have first choice, they would have rushed for first place. Gary had wanted to continue arguing, but 3Us vice-captain Cong Yi also came up, We also dont approve of L&P making an appointment with FTW. Garys half-assed Chinese came out, You Cong Yis Chinese was much faster than his, Since the rules will come into effect tomorrow, today should be a different story. Gary was attacked by enemies on both sides. He stuttered for a long time and finally came up with, How about how about letting FTW choose! Yuan Ze didnt want to look on anymore. He was just glad that he hadnt gone up. Countless contestants off-stage, ??? Everyone in FTW: However, this matter made Wei Xiao worried to death, This is too hard, I want all three of them. Someone knocked on his head. Wei Xiao turned his head blankly. Lu Feng glanced at him out of the corner of his eye. Wei Xiaos radar was up and functional, and he instantly realized that his captain was getting angry, Captain, you also think its overboard, right? What gives them the right? It really wasnt easy for us to get three training matches, why Lu Feng flicked his forehead. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng lowered his voice. Quiet. Wei Xiao: Yes? He leaned over to put his ear closer. Lu Feng stared at his small and cute white earlobe and shifted his gaze, Be quiet. Wei Xiao: Hed thought that the captain was calling him over to whisper something to him! The competition committee was very worried. Letting FTW choose was an earth-shakingly terrible idea! The original intention of this point ranking was to let the teams who had worked hard to rush to the forefront of the rankings select their teams for training matches. Yet as a result the team that was ranked 7th and hadnt even made it into the top 6, would now be given priority choice? Why should they do that! Wouldnt that turn this point system into nothing but a frivolous decoration?! The competition committee would never agree to this, but L&P, Pro, and 3U were all taking it seriously, and none of them would give in to the others. In the final analysis, the blame for this situation belonged to the competition committee, and the teams were indeed a little wronged. However, injustice was one thing, but obsession was something else. The people beneath the stage were really about to die from curiosity. What exactly was this?! The three teams with the top scores had actually started fighting over a team whod come in 7th. What kind of damned charm did FTW have?! The teams who didnt get why this was happening were a little anxious. It was fortunate that this segment wasnt being broadcast live. Otherwise, the Chinese domestic Glory circle would create a clip and amuse themselves with it for the entire year. CCWhat kind of captivating team-killer was this?! To make so many people lose their heads over them! Finally, the competition committee proposed a method that worked for everything. A draw. Nobody was willing to let go of the chance, and based on the premise of protecting FTW, the competition committee could only come up with such a countermeasure. The three teams would draw lots. Whoever drew the one that had FTW written on it would play a training match with them! Gary was the most dissatisfied one, Were clearly in first place. Kim Sung-hyun: Go back and ask Old Shi how he managed to get first place. If it hadnt been for Close, would he have been able to get first place?! Originally, Pro had been ahead of L&P. It was all because of that earlier doubles game where Yuan Ze and Close had formed a team and had each taken three points, while Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran had both lost and had six points deducted from their team. That was why L&P had managed to turn around. The host was really afraid of this group of ancestors and hurriedly said, Come, draw lots! It just so happened that there were three people representing the three teams up on the stage. They directly went to draw on behalf of their respective teams. Gary said, Were number one, well go first! Then, without waiting for the other two people to react, he reached in and picked out a ball. He pulled it out and opened it The host announced the result, Blank. Gary was so angry that he was about to spiral up into the sky! Kim Sung-hyun and Li Herans fans in China had given them a CP name, the Koi CP. Kim Sung-hyuns Chinese was very good. He naturally understood the meaning of the Koi CP. Koi represented good luck, too. God Kim made his move. The host announced the result, Blank! Kim Sung-hyun: Damn it, only when he and Li Heran were together did they form koi. On his own, he was just half a fish. Hed made a mistake! Unfortunately, there was no way to redo his choice. Cong Yi won without fighting. His position was stable. The host followed up enthusiastically, Congratulations 3U She realized that this wasnt quite right as she said the words. What was she congratulating them for? How could the lofty top three teams have been reduced to this kind of miserable situation! The host changed her words, Well, in that case, lets have the FTW teams and 3U teams starters all come up onto the stage! This result left Wei Xiao a little disappointed. It wasnt that he was disappointed with their brother team, but the difference in going from three to one was too big! How could anyone not be disappointed! While Wei Xiao was complaining to Bai Cai in a low voice, Bai Cais face was expressionless, No, I dont feel disappointed at all. He even felt very fortunate. He wasnt ready to fight against those two beastly teams! When they got up onto the stage, Gary and Kim Sung-hyun had just been about to step down. These two were very dissatisfied. Unfortunately, there was nothing they could do about it. Luck was really something that depended on fate. Wei Xiao was particularly able to understand their mood. He comforted them loudly when they passed each other, Dont be discouraged, you can work hard tomorrow and try to get first place on the scoreboard. That way, you can pick us first! Kim Sung-hyun and Gary: . They were all on the stage, and Wei Xiao hadnt lowered his voice. It had been captured by the microphone nearby. All the contestants at the scene: ??? FTWs new top-laner. He had a devils logic! Chapter 51.1: They had to do it even if it was impossible! The gratitude and resentment between FTW and 3U could also be said to be endless. When FTW was in its heyday, 3U hadnt been established for long. That year, the entire China competition zone was looking up to FTW. Not to mention chasing after them, just looking at them a few times made peoples eyes painfully dazzled. At the time, 3Us management had been extremely envious of FTWs Team of Gods and had vowed to build a new dream team. They smashed a lot of money into this endeavor and bought in many foreign players, yet their results were terrible, and it had only made them shaky and unstable. In the same year, FTWs Team of Gods disbanded, and FTWs foundations became as shaky as sand. Their situation was comparable with the 3U that had caused all of their own problems. At the time, the two bases had been situated close to each other, and theyd often arranged training competitions together, working hard to climb up together. Unfortunately, FTW held on, but 3Us management lost everything and ran off. Later on, someone took over 3U and made a new plan. They looked for two years and finally dug up a big treasure in 2020. That treasure was Asleep. It was also from 2020 that 3U was gradually able to stand up again. 3U had learned to be scared of being poor. They had finally obtained a trump card and desperately tried to squeeze out his value. Asleep was a person who didnt care about worldly affairs, and at the time, many people worried that this child would be gnawed to the bone by the capitalists. Unexpectedly, his low-key childhood friend, whod entered the team with him at the same time, was very clever. Although he was only 19 years old, he was able suppress the stupid and impetuous 3U management team completely with just his EQ and brain. Asleep was indeed easy to bully, but with Cong Yi blocking everything in front of him, one would have to ask Cong Yi for permission first before bullying Asleep. In 2021, FTW wasnt the only team that looked hopeful. Having had one year of experience in the competitive arena, Asleep and the stable 3U were now equally ambitious! The foreign fans might not be very interested in FTW vs 3U, but the fans in China were definitely happy. There was only a one hour time difference between Group As training camp location and China. The live time for this training match couldnt be any better. Traffic hurtled up in a sharp peak, and it wasnt worse than the traffic for an official game. Moreover, out of the 18 teams attending the training, FTW and 3U were actually the first to have a training match. This achievement only proved that the China competition zone was killing it this year! They were very familiar with each other. The BP process didnt require much thought. Chen Feng was very familiar with 3U and easily broke up some of their routine lineups. He didnt target Asleep because it wouldnt have much of an impact: They both had junglers as their cores. Coming up against Close was nothing but a nightmare for other teams. The 3U coach was equally direct. They went the usual route and only focused on targeting Close. Are you saying that he couldnt be targeted? They had to do it even if it was impossible! Although nightmare mode and hell mode was almost the same, who would want to go to hell if they could simply have nightmares?! Finally, the line-up was determined. The FTW side was very conventional: divine warrior, berserker thief, earth mage, light priest, storm hunter. 3Us side was pretty good, too: blood warrior, hidden thief, immortal warlock, elemental shaman, raider. In comparison, FTW was more focused around their jungler core. Basically, all talents would be cooperating with the berserker thief. In order to free up Bai Cai to follow the berserker thief, Yue Wenle had taken the storm hunter that was able to protect itself. 3Us side was more balanced. The blood warrior was a little less tanky compared to the divine warrior, but its damage was higher, and it could be used to cut down the earth mage in the later stages. The hidden thief didnt have the same ability to carry the rhythm of the game compared to the berserker thief, but it had a higher survival rate, and it was a talent spec that restrained the storm hunter. The immortal warlock was a magic assassin (spell damage type assassin), and in the earlier stages, it could go around the enemys tower to kill the earth mage once it had its ultimate move. All in all, the line-ups were well matched, and winning or losing would be based on individual performance. Because the game was being streamed live, the competition committee had arranged for two commentators. After the commentators made a whole pile of meaningless chatter about the line-ups and their problems, they began to discuss the contestants. FTWs odds of winning are a little higher. Weve all seen Closes berserker thief in the arena. Its hard to say. Asleep killed Close many times last year! The player Asleep is indeed capable. Especially when paired with his support partner Cong Yi, its definitely a combination where one plus one equals more than two. After saying this, there was a scrolling comment that stabbed where it hurt, While FTWs side is just one plus one equals one. It could be seen that this was one of Bai Cais haters with a glance, ridiculing the way that Bai Cai didnt take the initiative, didnt step out of line, and didnt make mistakes, but definitely also didnt add anything to the game. The canyon was projected up onto the big screen, and everyones gazes were drawn to it. The start of the game wasnt smooth. The hidden thief came over to steal into FTWs jungle. At this time, Close was in the jungle area near the top lane, and Bai Cai was keeping watch near the river. The scrolling comments started up again, Brother Cai, ah, Brother Cai, you wont die, but if you want to preempt others, holy shit Just when everyone thought that Asleep would be successful in stealing the jungle creeps, Bai Cai, who usually walked a standard route, took his mid-laner with him and went down to the jungle area. Did the God of Wealth wake up? God of Wealth C refers to Bai Cai He moved! FTWs number one lazy person took the initiative to attack! From a Gods eye view, they could see Bai Cai lead Ning Zhehan into their own jungle area, and Close clicked on teleport after they opened up the teams vision of the area. It could be seen that they were about to capture Asleep and Cong Yi between them Asleep was indeed fierce, fierce and powerful. He concealed his whereabouts and accurately used a W skill to hold down the other sides mage. The earth mage, whod only just reached level 2, had no self-protection skills. At the end of the day, Ning Zhehan wasnt experienced enough. He panicked because his life was at stake! Fortunately, Asleep hadnt stacked his damage high enough yet and couldnt take away Ning Zhehans life with just a set of skills. He was left with a sliver of health. In shock, Ning Zhehan only wanted to retreat. By this time, Close had already finished the teleportation. His scythe was very accurate and locked onto Asleep. At this moment At this second At this instant The scrolling comments exploded, Hahahaha, hurry and look at our Cong Yi! Damn, he ran really fast! The Pajamas CP is cracking apart! God Yi, we agreed that you guys are inseparable regardless of life and death! Why did you leave my Brother Sleep behind and run off! Indeed, the Pajamas CP that acted like conjoined twins had flown in separate directions when faced with difficulties. Cong Yi used the speed increase totem on himself and ran away faster than a rabbit. With this kind of attitude of selling off their teammates, those who watched were taken by surprise and thought that 3Us jungler and support had broken off their friendship! Of course, the commentators were very fair, 3Us choice was correct in this wave. Asleep will definitely die. Cong Yi would simply be offering up another kill if he stayed, so its better to leave quickly. Also They saw Asleep throw a dart at the earth mage who was at critical health. Amazing! He managed to kill Ning Zhehan in return one second before the berserker thief took his head. Commentator: Its not a loss! Great move! Asleep took First Blood! Right. Because Asleep killed Ning Zhehan first, he took First Blood. First Blood came with an added farming bonus, so even if Close killed him, he would still surpass Close in terms of farming. In the early stages of the game, the resurrection time was very short. For Asleep, this was equivalent to being sent home to recover his health for free. 3U is really capable. Asleep and Cong Yi are really worthy of being in the top four for last years doubles competition. Their cooperation is absolute! Regardless of whether it was Cong Yis quick escape while selling out of his teammate, or Asleeps dart just before death, these plays were all extremely stable. Making the best choice without being anxious or flustered was the best display of a professional players quality. On the other hand, the newcomer king Ning Zhehan was still too young and inexperienced. In FTWs headset, Ning Zhehans voice trembled, Sorry. Lu Feng: Its fine. Ning Zhehan became even more nervous when he said that. On the top lane, Wei Xiao had constantly been exchanging health with 3Us top-laner. He was unable to help out during this small-scale group fight. As someone who hadnt participated, there wasnt anything to say. He was busy suppressing 3U in the top lane, and it seemed as though someone was missing from the team. Ning Zhehan didnt know why, but he felt even more nervous. The earth mage was a hero that he was very familiar with, and he used it often. This hero was one that tended towards support in the mid-lane. It could be used for its control skills in the early stages and dealt a large amount of damage in the later stages. However, hed In the early stages, hed simply been unable to control the hidden thief. Asleep seemed to be like a wolf that had locked in on a piece of meat and targeted Ning Zhehan like his life depended on it. 3Us immortal warlock used another flight amongst the clouds. After launching a set of skills and flying up into the sky, the short-legged earth mage was left with nowhere to escape. flight amongst the clouds C skill description Scrolling comments: Ning Zhehan plays quite well normally. Why is he so bad when he steps into the arena At the end of the day, he has no competition experience. His mentality isnt good. Its clear that hes already collapsed. Its an old problem with FTW. The mid lane and jungler are never able to link up together. Wake up, who isnt nervous when Close is nearby? xiin: quick announcement C GLORY now has a patreon tier! its $5/month for ~5 advance chapters. you can check it out here if youre interested~ Chapter 51.2: Ive decided to switch to the top lane. In the future, Quiet will play jungler. I was originally quite optimistic about Ning Zhehan, but now whats with this? Hes the newcomer king with just this level of skill. Sure enough, a newcomer king from the youth training camp is nothing but dogshit. FTWs new top-laner is just so-so, too. Wasnt he praised as some sort of grandmaster? He hasnt shown off any kind of wonderful operations. Its a divine warrior against the blood warrior. Its already really amazing that he hasnt been pressed into the ground! Whyd they pick the divine warrior? FTW really has a one track mind. Cant they stop relying only on Close? Just watching it makes me annoyed. Although these barrage kings were just running their mouth, they did have good reason to do so. In the present situation, Ning Zhehan was the other sides breakthrough point. The divine warrior was being held back, and it was very difficult for Close to catch the hidden thief. This was indeed a disadvantageous situation for FTW. In the FTW headset, Wei Xiao shouted, Captain, requesting assistance! Close glanced at the minimap. In the top lane, Wei Xiao and 3Us blood warriors fight was very tense. Because the hidden thief had constantly been targeting Ning Zhehan, Close hadnt gone over to help much. Fortunately for 3U, the blood warrior had enough DPS and could hold off Wei Xiao. Reasonably speaking, Wei Xiaos side didnt require support because he hadnt been pressured by the Blood warrior at all. On the other hand, hed used the buffs on his own body to fight against the blood warrior on equal terms. However, Close still headed over, Bai Cai, follow Ning Zhehan. Bai Cai: Yes. Close went to the top lane on his own. Wei Xiao had played the berserker thief all day, and at this time, he was most familiar with it. When he saw Closes icon coming closer on the minimap, he could already estimate how long it would take for him to arrive. Im going up! While Close was still a distance away, Wei Xiao quickly pulled up the spear inserted in the middle of the lane, landed his Q skill accurately, and flew out with his ultimate move. 3Us top-laner was shocked and was acutely aware that something was off. Hed already sent over a teleportation signal to Asleep. Asleep just happened to have a teleport available and clicked to transfer over. Unfortunately, it was still too late Three spears landed on the blood warrior. Finally, the blood warrior who had only a third of his health left retreated beneath the tower. Unfortunately, the berserker thiefs scythe arrived right then, and it swept past lightly. The berserker thief killed the blood warrior! Asleep finished the teleport and landed. He looked at Close, who was still in a good state and standing guard in front of Wei Xiao He didnt dare to attack. If he dared to go and attack Wei Xiao, who was at half health, he would die beneath Closes scythe. Let alone Asleep understood Wei Xiao too well. This guy was purposely seducing him. If he let it get to him and went up now, he might even die without managing to kill Wei Xiao. He couldnt let himself be tricked! Wei Xiao was regretful, Can Brother Sleep do it or not, Ive already taken off half my clothes (half health), yet hes not rushing up to do me. Lu Feng: . Bai Cai: Yue Wenle: Ning Zhehan, whose mentality was collapsing, Pfft. The fans who were watching the live broadcast were all surprised, Whats going on with Ning Zhehan? Did he recover his state? Whats going on! My Sleep God ganked him for 20 minutes, yet he recovered in a single second? I want to listen to FTWs internal voice chat! Want to listen +1 Want to listen +10086 Could it be that my cold and emotionless great demon king has learned how to coax people? No way! The great demon king will only say coldly that its fine! I also feel that getting the great demon king to coax someone would only happen if the skies collapsed and the earth shattered! Im so curious! No rush, no rush. Just wait for Glorys Mic Explosion King to disclose what happened, theyll definitely use cuts from the internal voice chat! Although Ning Zhehans was stable now, hed been ganked too miserably in the early stages and was unable to deal out enough damage in the later stages. Fortunately, the earth mage relied mainly on control. He cooperated with the light priests ultimate move and covered the entire area with slow effects, making 3U very uncomfortable. Later, Wei Xiao led the soldiers down the lane like crazy, and 3U really had a headache over how to play. If they chose to go and catch him, he was tanky and fleshy, and could recover health on his own. Even before they killed him, the berserker thief chasing after him would come over to finish the kill, taking away two of them in one go. If they didnt go catch him, he was like a pangolin that could quietly break down 3Us towers! 30 minutes into the game, 3Us top lane was completely unable to hold up. The blood warrior was an early stage hero. By the time the divine warrior built up its health, when the two of them faced off against each other, the blood warriors skills were simply like tickles against the divine warriors body. The divine warrior would chuckle, and then return the attack, forcing the blood warrior to flee. Even the commentators were amused, FTWs divine warrior is really having fun. This comment was very subtle. It was indeed happy, or maybe it should be called gleeful. It was a big canyon, but the divine warrior ran to the west after running around in the east, never joining the group fights, yet limiting the opposite side to the extreme. From 3Us perspective, anyone who looked at it felt a headache coming on. It could be imagined that 3Us internal voice chat was, Who will go and deal with this damned monkey! Later, 3U really did catch and kill Monkey Wei. It took three people using all of their skills to kill the divine warrior that was so tanky it incurred the wrath of both man and god. Wei Xiao died. Did 3U win? No 3U was done for! The three people from 3U, whod used up all their skills, were trapped by the wall set down by the light priest whod teleported over. The berserker thiefs scythe was actually able to lock down two of them at the same time. After a series of miraculous operationsCC Triple kill! Close happily took down a triple kill that was made possible completely due to the way Wei Xiao had sold himself off so beautifully. Wei Xiao: Hey, hey, if you want to take turns with me, you have to take a look at whether or not my captains big blade complies or not! Close: Not. Bai Cai & Yue Wenle & Ning Zhehan: Cough cough cough. The three little ones almost choked to death! Please dont ever cut this section up onto Glorys Mic Explosion King. Their great demon king had been led astray by the little lunatic! FTW won against 3U. It had been a risky game, but theyd ultimately won. During the handshake at the end, 3Us blood warrior held Wei Xiaos hand and didnt want to let go: So angry so angry so angry, the captain and vice-captain had started off the game so beautifully, but it had been completely destroyed by this divine warrior! Wei Xiao was very magnanimous and comforted him, Its okay, youre welcome to come and get revenge or get even if you want to. Big brother doesnt refuse anyone. The blood warrior: .. He could sort of understand why the captain insisted on soloing with him! F*ck, his hands were itchy! The unlucky L&P chose to play against the Black Knights who were ranked 4th, and Pro chose the 5th place team. There was no suspense for either of the games. L&P and Pro both won, and their scores were steady at first and second place. After the training matches came free practice time. They could go and charge up the rankings in the formal servers or compete in their own training matches. Dont judge based on how L&P and Pro had willfully fought over FTW on the stage; it was different off-stage. The two teams training matches were already fully scheduled for the week. No matter how much the players wanted to hammer FTW, they couldnt bypass the team arrangements. There were too many rivals that they needed to beat, such as the kings from Group B who were training on an island in North America. For the time being, FTW hadnt arranged for any training matches. The players all went to the international servers to rank. At around eleven oclock, Lu Feng and Chen Feng walked into the training room at the same time. It so happened that the four little ones had just finished their games, and they all looked up one after another. Chen Fengs expression was serious and cold. Lu Fengs attitude was the same as usual. There was no extra expression, but his thin lips seemed to curve briefly when he looked at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao immediately gave him a big smile in return. Lu Feng shifted his gaze away and said, I want to announce something to everyone. Everyone cocked up their ears. They had no idea that a huge bomb was about to drop. Chen Feng took a deep breath, How about I say it. Lu Feng had already spoken the words, Ive decided to switch to the top lane. In the future, Quiet will play jungler. Bai Cais heart abruptly jumped up in his chest. Ning Zhehans eyes opened wide. Yue Wenle moved, and the potato chips on his legs were scattered all over the floor. Chen Feng: Alright then, saying it earlier was the same as saying it later. After playing against 3U today, everyone in the coaching team had nodded their agreement. Wei Xiao was really well suited for playing the jungler position. When it came to motivating his teammates, he was really second to none. Who couldve known that Wei Xiao, the one Chen Feng had been the least concerned about, would actually stand up abruptly. Why? His attitude was rarely so serious. xiin: eeeep a cliffhanger! but, dont worry, WX will be back to his energizer bunny self real soon! also, i picked up a new novel! *shameless advertising*~~ since one of my other novels is coming to an end, i started thinking about what novels to pick up next and ended up choosing Transmigrating Into The Heartthrobs Cannon Fodder Childhood Friend! its a fluffy, dreamy, summer-y modern day rebirth x transmigrator novel that im super excited to share with you all <3 please go check it out~ Chapter 52: Faith One why represented the questions of everyone present. Bai Cai, Ning Zhehan, and Yue Wenle didnt dare to ask, but their hearts were also filled with this question. If Close wasnt the jungler, would FTW still be FTW? Not to mention the fans, even they felt this way. Or in other words, who here in this room wasnt a Close fan? The glorious FTW, the dispirited FTW, the fragmented FTW, and the FTW that had charged tenaciously into the global finals. No matter which one it was, they all had Closes shadow looming over it, and they all had his shadow thief. And now, he was saying that he wasnt going to play jungler anymore. This destroyed the faith of countless people! Chen Fengs throat was dry and hoarse, Ever since Quiet joined the team, the coaching team has been observing and analyzing the situation, and weve come to the conclusion that Quiet is more suited for the jungler position Wei Xiao interrupted forcefully, Nobody is more suitable than Close is! He didnt use the title of captain and referred to Close by name. Lu Fengs eyebrows drew together in a slight frown, Technique can be tempered, experience can be accumulated. Some geniuses are meant to be. Wei Xiao stared at him, and two clusters of fire burned in his eyes, Genius? I Lu Feng interrupted him, In the evening, in the game against 3U, you were the one who eased the pressure on Ning Zhehan. Wei Xiao was stunned. Lu Fengs voice was quiet, gentle, and soothing, Ive always been unable to take care of my teammates emotions. In order to win in 5v5, five people are required, not one. Wei Xiao spoke impatiently, Ive already joined the team. I can do all that from the top lane. Lu Feng shook his head, The top lane has its own limitations. Youre more suited to be a jungler. Wei Xiao: But youre the jungler, youve already been in this position for four years! What kind of concept was this? Only professional players could experience it fully. E-sports was a profession that relied on youth. How many years could a professional player play for? The tougher ones might last for six or seven years, but the weaker ones could collapse in just two or three years. Lu Feng had already been playing for four years, and he was more than halfway through his career. No matter how talented he was, no matter how excellent he was, he couldnt remain in his peak state forever. His golden age would only last for two or three years at most. At this time, in a situation where he hadnt made any mistakes, hadnt fallen behind, and showed no flaws, why should he give up playing the jungler position? For what?! Hed worked hard for four years and devoted his efforts towards this for four years. Why give it up! Wei Xiaos heart clenched into a ball, and his eyes were red. Did he love playing jungler? He loved it. But why did he love playing jungler? It was because two years ago, Close had led an immature team, and the indomitable spirit and resolve hed shown to find a chance to break out of a desperate situation had really encouraged him. Was Wei Xiao staunch and strong? He was. With a pair of parents like his, looking after his elderly grandmother on his own, he had to be strong. However, couldnt there be times when strong people were vulnerable? When his classmate had come in second place in the class, his parents had been so happy that theyd run to the school to treat everyone to small cakes. Hed looked at the middle-aged couple whose faces showed joy they couldnt suppress, and he could only feel sad. CCHed been first in his class in the exams, but his parents didnt even know. Wei Xiao had run out of school, hid in an ohinternet bar, and inadvertently seen Closes game. He looked at the shadow thief on the screen and saw the light. A beam of light had pierced through cowardice and frailty, burrowing straight into his heart. A losing game, desperate teammates, and a game that no longer held suspense. From beginning to end, the shadow thief had held on, hadnt given up, and had never stopped. He used his scarlet red blade, pierced through the haze, broke the deadlock, and showed countless people the power of faith. He wanted to fight, wanted to win, and even if he was the only one left, he still had to struggle all the way to the end! At the end. The shadow thief stood alone in the empty canyon, his cloak fluttering around him, looking resolute and determined. This picture was engraved in Wei Xiaos heart. Hed never thought that he would be so shocked and moved by a video game character. Hed never thought that he would cry over a video game. Even more, hed never thought that hed be moved by someone who was on the other side of a screen, on the other side of a game, spanning immeasurable nothingness, whose name he didnt even know. Close won that game. Wei Xiao had also rushed into Glorys China competition zones training camp without any hesitation during that winter vacation. Close was countless peoples faith. And also Wei Xiaos faith. There were many people who were in desperate situations. Even more people who struggled in pain. And those on the thorny road of unremitting progress needed such a beam of light. CCIt could light up the darkness up ahead and give them infinite courage so that they could keep going. So, there was no way for him to accept it. Such a Close had actually chosen to give up. Lu Feng spoke softly, Wei Xiao, come outside with me. Wei Xiao didnt move. Lu Fengs voice was gentle, Come here. This arrogant youth had always been docile and well behaved with him. But now, Wei Xiao finally acted like a 19 year old. He stood there, didnt move, and spoke in a smoldering tone, Tell me that youll still play jungler. Lu Feng: . Chen Feng frowned and spoke up, Wei Xiao, this is something that the entire FTW has decided on. You Lu Feng raised his hand and interrupted Chen Fengs reprimand. Chen Feng wasnt happy inside either. He simply opened the door and left. In the presence of so many people, there were many things that Lu Feng couldnt easily say, and with Wei Xiaos current attitude, he probably wouldnt be able to hear it, either. Continue ranking. Ill go back to the room first. He said this to Wei Xiao and planned to leave. Wei Xiao was unreconciled, and before Lu Feng could leave, he asked, Is my top lane not good enough? Lu Fengs heart stuttered. Wei Xiaos voice quivered, Give me some time. I will become stronger, Ill become stronger than Yuan Ze! Lu Feng hardened his heart and pushed open the door, Ill wait for you in the room. Wei Xiao stiffened, then sat down in his chair. It was very quiet in the training room. There was no clattering keyboard sound, no mouse clicks, and even the sound of breathing was extremely light. It was unknown how long it took, perhaps it was only a few minutes, or even half an hour. Wei Xiao sat up straight and silently entered the game. He didnt speak to anyone, and he didnt look at anyone. He stared at the screen, and the corners of his mouth stretched out into a straight line. He entered the game and started a match. He didnt say a word as he picked the divine warrior. At the start of the game, the divine warrior in the canyon was like a silent lone wolf that stuck to its lane. It fought against the other top laner, exchanged hits, and took First Blood! In a group battle, it circled around the back, Pentakill! Bai Cai also entered the game. He didnt start his own match and instead went to observe the match. He looked at the silent Wei Xiao, looked at the divine warrior who was like a sword that had been drawn out of its scabbard, looked at his incredible maneuvers, and watched him win one match after another. For a full four hours, Wei Xiao didnt even drink any water. He kept playing with the divine warrior, queued into games non-stop, and killed endlessly. After getting used to seeing the happy and smiling Wei Xiao, Bai Cai had almost forgotten how scary Wei Xiao was when he was angry. He was good-natured and very tolerant, but he also had untouchable bottom lines. One of them was Close. The period two years ago had been the most difficult time for FTW. Close had been very young when he bought the club, and it was something that many people found impossible. All kinds of rumors floated around. At the time, someone in their youth training camp had said, Close is really impressive. He can obtain an entire club just by selling his ass. Wei Xiao heard this sentence and punched him without another word. That person had been muddled, Youre f*cking crazy! Wei Xiao landed another punch, and blood began to ooze from the corner of that persons mouth. Bai Cai had been shocked silly back then. Hed already become familiar with Wei Xiao by then; this guy was playful and smiling all day long, and had a runaway mouth. Hed never thought that he would be so crazy when he started fighting! Later, if it hadnt been for Bai Cai going up to stop him, he suspected that Wei Xiao wouldve beaten the other person to death! Even if he was being held down, Wei Xiao continued to stare at that person, Apologize. That person had no idea what he had done wrong. Wei Xiao enunciated each word clearly, Apologize to Close. It was only then that Bai Cai learned of Wei Xiaos reverse scale. Someone who was so easy to get along with normally, was more terrible than anyone else when their reverse scale was touched. The youth training camps management was much less strict than it was in the professional arena. Only a reprimand and demerit had been given over this incident. That person hadnt made any achievements. After being caught out, he hadnt dared to kick up a fuss and had directly gone home. There werent many people who knew about this incident, but Bai Cai was one of them. So, he understood how much Close switching lanes affected Wei Xiao. Three oclock in the morning. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle gradually stood up. They glanced at Wei Xiao, then looked at Bai Cai. Bai Cai shook his head. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle nodded, and they both went out first. Only Wei Xiao and Bai Cai were left in the room. Bai Cai thought about it for a while and was just about to open his mouth when Wei Xiao spoke first, Go get some rest. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao stared unblinkingly at the screen. Despite having been focused on the game for four hours, his control over the divine warriors operations was still extremely precise. Bai Cai took a light breath, The captain is still waiting for you. Wei Xiaos fingers shook, and he missed a soldier, He went to sleep. Bai Cai gritted his teeth and said, Dont be like this. For the captain to make such a decision, it must be Wei Xiao spoke coldly, Go rest. Bai Cai: The one who caused the problem had to be the one to fix it; Bai Cai knew that it was useless for him to say anything else. He stood up, You should go back and rest early too. Wei Xiao: Mm. Bai Cai left the training room. Wei Xiao was the only one left in the large training room. He finished a game. The word Victory on the screen was both dazzling and boring He didnt continue to queue for the next game. Wei Xiao leaned back in his chair, and raised his elbow to cover his eyes. Why did he have to give it up? Was it because he wasnt strong enough? Had Close given up the jungler position because of him? An indescribable pain surged up into his chest. It was so intense that it made Wei Xiao feel a long-lost sense of powerlessness. CCWhy did mom and dad leave. CCWas it because he wasnt an obedient child? Wei Xiao took a light breath and tried to suppress his turbulent emotions. He sat up straight and hit the match button. If he wasnt strong enough, hed train. He could do it. Ding. His cell phone rang. This was a special chime tone. Wei Xiao cancelled the match queue and picked up his cell phone. LU: Are you sleeping? Wei Xiao wasnt in the mood to talk to anyone, including the boss. However It was so late, yet the boss hadnt gone to sleep. Maybe something had happened. Wei Xiao was unwilling to harm others just because of his own emotions. Wei Xiao typed, Not yet. Then, he continued and asked, What can I do for you, Brother Lu? At three oclock in the morning, if things were normal, he shouldve already gone to sleep. LU paused for a moment, then sent a sentence, Its so late, are you training? Wei Xiao: LU: Am I interrupting you? Wei Xiao: No. The two of them both paused for a moment. It was as though neither of them knew what to say for a while. Wei Xiao tried to lift up his spirits, Its so late, but Brother Lu hasnt slept yet, is it The words hed been typing hadnt yet been sent out when LU sent over another message, In a bad mood? It was four simple words, but Wei Xiao could feel the concern from this person whom hed never met. The tip of his nose felt sour, Mm. LU: Did something happen? Wei Xiao felt like the words that had pressed down on his chest for four hours, the words that he couldnt even say to Bai Cai, could somehow be spoken to this stranger. My captain decided to change lanes. Wei Xiao typed out these few words and felt as though his fingertips were being scalded. He took a deep breath and sent out another sentence, Hes going to give up the position hes held on to for four years. Followed by another line, Because Im not strong enough. In the hotel room, Lu Feng sat in the dark and looked at these three messages. CCMy captain decided to change lanes. CCHes going to give up the position hes held on to for four years. CCBecause Im not strong enough. A thick stream of emotion overflowed in Lu Fengs chest, making his fingers tremble under the moonlight coming in from the window. LU: Why dont you talk to him. Wei Xiao was stunned. LU: Maybe its not what you think. Wei Xiao typed, Brother Lu, you dont understand. My captain, hes been playing in the jungler position ever since he started playing professionally. His jungler is the best in the whole of Glory! LU: But its not what he likes. Wei Xiaos back felt like it was frozen, How could that be! LU: He didnt give up, because what hes held onto wasnt the jungler position. Wei Xiao stood up abruptly. xiin: *cuddles the shit out of wei xiao* Chapter 53: Quiet and Close are a match made in heaven! Onlookers saw more clearly, while those involved were confused. He was in the middle of it all and he was far from being able to see things clearly. Yeah Did the captain like playing the jungler position? Was the captain playing Glory for the sake of the jungler position? Wei Xiao: F*ck! The captain had said that he wanted to talk to him, but hed been hiding up until now! Wei Xiao couldnt wait for another minute or even another second. He didnt even take his cell phone with him as he rushed out of the door, running all the way back to the hotel room. The hotel room and training room were on the same floor, so he only had a run a few steps to get there. Reasonably speaking, it was such a short distance that it shouldnt have affected his breathing, but Wei Xiaos heart was beating too quickly, and he couldnt breathe evenly. The captain should have gone to bed, right? Or was he waiting for him. Damn it! As soon as he thought of how the captain, who would sleep at midnight even if struck by lightning, might be waiting up for him, Wei Xiao wanted to hammer himself! He took his room card out of his pocket, and the door unlocked with a click. In the moment when he pressed down on the doorknob, Wei Xiao closed his eyes. When he pushed open the door, only darkness entered his eyes. Had he gone to sleep? Wei Xiao let out a breath of relief, yet he also felt a sliver of loss. It was okay! Hed thought it through. No matter why the captain had made this decision, he should talk to him about it properly. Being depressed and smoldering on his own was really stupid behavior! Although Wei Xiao was in a hurry, he couldnt bear to wake Lu Feng up. His steps were light as he walked in. The hotel room had floor lighting that would light up with movement. A yellow floor lamp lit up a circular area around it as soon as his foot landed. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng: I thought you didnt plan to come back tonight. The voice that was slightly hoarse from staying up late rang out in the dimly lit room. Wei Xiao almost jumped straight up, Cap-cap-captain! Because it was a resort hotel, the rooms had huge French windows. At this time, there was a blurred figure seated on the high backed sofa in front of a window. Behind the figure was the romantic view of the moonlit deep sea. Silver moonlight fell onto his shoulder sketching out an outline of his profile. Lu Feng moved his hand and manually switched on the floor lamp beside him. The orange light swept away the moonlight and brought with it a layer of warmth. Wei Xiao felt ashamed and said, Youre not asleep. He remembered the words Lu Feng had said when he left the training room, Ill wait for you in the room. So, the captain had waited for him for four hours. Wei Xiao didnt want to hammer himself anymore. He wanted to hammer himself dead (repeatedly)! Lu Feng glanced at him, Come here. Wei Xiao went over and sat down beside him. Looking at the cautious and hesitant youth in front of him, Lu Fengs heart melted into a soft mess. His voice couldnt help but turn gentle, There were too many people in the training room. It wasnt convenient to say some things there. The matter of Lu Feng switching lanes, in fact, there was no need to explain it to anyone. What Chen Feng had said before was already an objective fact. Wei Xiao could do a better job in that position. Why not change lanes? Even if the person in charge of FTW was Lu Feng, FTW belonged to everyone. With a clearer path in sight, why not move forward? Hed called Wei Xiao out for some more personal reasons. There were some things that he didnt want to tell others, but he wanted to let Wei Xiao understand why. This involved the FTW from the past. Even if the old FTW came to such a tragic, bitter end, even if his former teammates had all abandoned him, Lu Feng had no intention of publicizing the past. Wei Xiaos heart was full of the messages that the boss had sent him. He looked up at Lu Feng and asked bluntly, Captain, do you like playing jungler? The answer Lu Feng gave him was, I dont hate it. Wei Xiao stilled. Not hating it wasnt the same as liking it. Not hating it was just not disliking it. Lu Feng spoke slowly, When I joined the team, FTW was short a jungler Four years ago, FTWs jungler was Chen Feng. FTW, which had drawn in a large number of talented players, had achieved excellent results the year before. Unfortunately, Chen Feng couldnt keep up with the teams pace. At the time, the coaching team had hoped that Yuan Ze or Yan Jiang would switch lanes. These two were absolutely capable of playing the jungler position. However, Yuan Ze refused to play jungler. He just wanted to play in the top lane. Yan Jiangs answer was even more cold and aloof, Since FTW doesnt require a support player, I can transfer. FTW couldnt afford to offend those two and rushed to pacify them. At this time, Close joined the team. He was an all-round player, a very strong rookie who could play in any position. The coaching team didnt even think twice about it and said, Then have Close play jungler. Nobody asked Close what position he wanted to play. Nobody cared about his preferences. What the team was lacking was a jungler, so Close became FTWs jungler. When he heard this, Wei Xiao became anxious, How could it be like that! After saying that, he realized that this was normal. Many professional players didnt have a choice about their position when they first joined the team, especially if they were new players who didnt have a fixed position. It was normal for them to follow whatever arrangements the club made for them. Lu Feng looked at Wei Xiao, I havent had time to ask you Wei Xiaos heart trembled. Lu Feng asked him gently, Now that youve joined FTW, what position do you want to play? It was normal not to ask, especially for players who could play in any position. However, Lu Feng wanted to ask Wei Xiao. Not just Wei Xiao. Hed asked every player who had joined FTW. Yue Wenle, Ning Zhehan, Bai Cai No matter what position theyd held in their previous team, hed had a serious talk with them about this after they joined FTW. Not hating a position was one thing. Liking it was another matter. Doing something one liked was a completely different thing. Before, nobody had had the time to ask Wei Xiao. On one hand, Lu Feng understood Wei Xiao and knew what he liked; on the other hand, the matter of switching lanes hadnt been made public, so hed held back. Now, he asked Wei Xiao formally, Do you like playing jungler? Wei Xiao: Lu Feng: Dont feel pressured. You also dont have to think about anything else. Just say what you feel in your heart. Wei Xiaos eyes were red. Nobody had ever said such things to him before. Nobody had ever asked him what he was thinking. Nobody had ever been like the captain His parents didnt want him, and it had already been very difficult for his grandmother to support the two of them. Wei Xiao wasnt qualified to like anything, and he didnt have the confidence to ask for anything. Wei Xiao took a deep breath and said, I like playing jungler. He liked playing the jungler position. He liked this profession. This love had begun with Close, but over the past two years, it had taken over and filled his entire being. He liked doing his own thing, liked being unfettered, liked being able to act unscrupulously. He liked the jungler position that let him run around wantonly in the canyon and liked the shadow thief that was as free as the wind! Lu Feng lifted his hand to wipe the tears from the corner of Wei Xiaos eyes and spoke in a soft voice, If you like it, then dont give it up. Dont give it up because of anyone, or anything. Wei Xiao raised his own arm and wiped at his eyes that had let him down by leaking tears, and spoke anxiously, But Lu Feng knew what he wanted to ask, Im not forcing myself. To be precise. Lu Feng looked into his eyes that seemed to shine after being washed by water and said, Since the day you joined FTW, I no longer wanted to force myself anymore. The even tone carried the unique resonance that belonged to Close, but at the same time, a sense of relief overflowed from this inorganic indifference. It was like setting down his shackles, unfurling his wings, and being eager to soar up into the sky. Lu Feng, a newcomer to the team, had chosen to play jungler for the sake of the team. He didnt hate playing jungler, but nobody knew that what he liked was the top lane. Guarding half the canyon on his own, guarding the teams rear, a warrior that was like a sharp spear ready to cut off the enemys soldiers. He wasnt good at comforting people, and he was even less able to mobilize a teams emotions. All he could do was to do what he could and be the best at it. The top-laner was a position that allowed him to do so. A position that suited him. Four years ago, the team needed a jungler, so I became a jungler; three years ago, FTW needed Close, so I continued to play jungler; now that youve returned to the team, can I stop playing jungler? Lu Feng asked Wei Xiao quietly. Wei Xiaos heart was beating extremely fast, You really like the top lane. Lu Fengs eyes carried traces of a smile, Yes. Wei Xiao: And I like playing jungler. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao stilled for a moment. That little brain of his that usually spun really quickly was now somewhat overloaded. Before hed appeared, Close had always been forcing himself; after he appeared, Close was no longer forcing himself. He hadnt taken away something that Close had always held on to. His arrival had liberated Close and given him the freedom he longed for! Yeah. As the boss had said, what had Close been persevering for? The jungler position? The glory of being the strongest jungler? No! None of it! What Close persevered for was FTW, this team, and the glory that belonged to them all! Wei Xiaos eyes lit up, and the haze in his heart was swept away to be replaced by a soaring happiness. An indescribable happiness, a huge happiness, a happiness that he really wished he could share with the whole world! So that means Wei Xiao was happy enough to explode, You like the top lane, but you played jungler instead, and I like jungler, but I went to play the top lane instead. Now, after we trade, everyone will be happy! Lu Feng was also infected by his happiness, Yes. Wei Xiaos little brain had come back to life again! Shit, He realized, Were actually so well matched! Lu Feng: He had a bit of a bad premonition. As expected, there was no saving an excited Wei Xiaos mouth, Captain, were a match made in heaven! Lu Feng: Wei Xiaos heart was full of beautiful delight, and he really had to find someone to show off to. Oh At 3:30 in the morning, it was probably only him and the captain who were still awake. So, he Would just show off to the captain, then. Wei Xiao stared at Lu Feng, Me and Close are a team made in heaven! Lu Feng: . Lu Feng got up. Wei Xiao was still chattering, Were a team made in heaven, a team blessed by nature, a team that incurs other peoples envy As he continued speaking, Wei Xiao ran out of proverbs to play with and asked Lu Feng, Are there any other phrases? Lu Feng turned off the floor lamp, Yes. Wei Xiaos gaze darkened briefly, and he couldnt see Lu Fengs face clearly, Tell me, tell me! Lu Feng spoke slowly, A happy pair flying wing to wing, a pair of interlocked branches, a harmonious pair, white The shameless and oblivious Wei Xiaoxiao was shocked, Wait a minute? Lu Feng: Yes? Wei Xiaos heart trembled, Captain, what you mean by pair! Lu Feng understood him too well. He spoke calmly, A team. Wei Xiao relaxed, patted his chest, and said, Youre going to scare me to death. Lu Feng asked him, Scare? Wei Xiaos mouth had no filter, I thought you wanted to fly together with me, be interlocked together with me, and live together forever with me until were old and have white hair! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao began to be mischievous again. He put on an act, Hey, could it be that you really Lu Feng: Wei Xiao. Wei Xiaoxiao: Huh? The great demon king was angered, Either go wash up, or scram to the training room and kill soldiers until dawn. Wei Xiao: He picked up his bathrobe and rushed to the bathroom. While washing up, Wei Xiao was still happy and very elated. He hummed a little song and thought about a better and brighter future. Hed really never, ever thought that Close had wanted to play top-laner the most; hed really never, ever thought that his arrival had liberated Close. When he thought about the latter, Wei Xiaos heart felt like a piece of sugar, incredibly sweet. The captain was really nice. How could the captain be so wonderful! The ignorant youths heart was filled with one person, but he didnt understand the true color of his feelings. After washing up and coming back out, Lu Feng was already sleeping. This time, he was lying flat on his back. It was clear that he was very tired, and at present, he had faint dark circles beneath his eyes, and his lips were paler than usual. Wei Xiao propped his cheek on his hand and looked at him for a long time. As he looked F*ck! The boss! Only then did Wei Xiao remember that hed left his cell phone in the training room. And hed also bailed on the boss while he was at it. It was so late at night, and he still didnt know what had happened to the boss that had put him in a bad mood. The boss had been in a bad mood and had come to chat with him, yet as a result, hed chattered on about himself and even owed the boss thanks for helping him think things through. And yet, as soon as he thought things through, hed tossed the boss to the back of his mind and even left him in the training room! It was now It was almost four oclock in the morning! Wei Xiao was really upset about it. He wrapped himself up in his bathrobe and rushed back to the training room to look for his cell phone. Once his cell phone was back in hand, he was stunned when he looked at the messages. Before, hed been focused on the captain. Now, when he looked again Ummm. The bosss words had been a little strange. In the first sentence, thered still been the word maybe, but in the last two sentences, hed directly said that Close didnt like playing jungler? Hed said that he hadnt been holding on for that? And said that he hadnt been holding onto a jungler position? This tone. Wei Xiao was shocked by his own thoughtsCC How come it was so much like having the captain say these things himself?! The boss was the captain? The captain was the boss? How was that possible! Wei Xiaos brain spun wildly as he went through the recent conversations between him and the boss. CCHed praised Close. CCPraised the captain. CCPraised Close after praising the captain. These things didnt matter. Wei Xiao praised the captain every day in real life, too, and that was nothing to be worried over. However Wei Xiao thought of his own character set-up, and thought of his girlfriend that hed paid a 2 million breakup fee to. If the boss was the captain, then he Wei Xiao groaned and wanted to die. He turned to the last message in their conversation history. LU: Of course, these are just my guesses. From chatting with you, I think that your captain isnt a person who would give up so easily, so you should go and talk to him. This was the message that LU had sent to him after Wei Xiao left the training room. Wei Xiao stared at this message for a long time Well, it seemed to make sense. Speaking of which, how could the boss be the captain. How could an idea that had no logic behind it appear in his mind. Were there any similarities between the boss and the captain? One was a newbie at the game, and one was a big god. One was a boss with a career, and the other was number one in the world. One was someone who didnt treat 2 million like it was worth anything, and the other had so much money theyd built a castle. One was good to him, and the other one treated him even better F*ck! There were a lot of similarities! Other than when it came to the game, the similarity was a little too amazing. And Wei Xiao finally, belatedly, started to consider this game ID. LU and they were both surnamed Lu It couldnt be! Wei Xiao took his cell phone with him and went back to the hotel room. He stared at his sleeping captain for another three or four minutes. The captains cell phone was on the bedside table Wei Xiao shook his head crazily. How could he touch other peoples personal belongings? It was too shameless! Wei Xiao pressed down the restlessness in his heart and tried to hypnotize himself. Sleep, sleep. The captain wasnt the boss, and the boss wasnt the captain. Sleep, sleep. So what if the captain really was the boss, and the boss was really the captain? Sleep, sleep. Hed merely treated the captain like his girlfriend, and treated the boss like his girlfriend! Wei Xiaos eyes opened up abruptlyCCto hell with sleeping! Wei Xiao only fell asleep after the sky grew bright. He managed to sleep all the way until noon. The doorbell woke him up. Wei Xiao turned his head and found that the captain had already gone out. Wei Xiao clutched at his hair and opened the door. Bai Cai and his black eye circles met with Wei Xiaos even bigger black eye circles. The two people with black eye circles looked at each other, Wei Xiao: Old Bai, are you lovelorn? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao comforted him, There are plenty of fish in the sea. Theres no need to obsess over a single flower. Bai Cai hadnt slept well all night due to worry that this kid would do something bad. Who couldve known that when he woke up The old beast was back?! You were coaxed back to normal so quickly?! Captain was really amazing! Bai Cai poked his head in to look into the room. Wei Xiao yawned, The captain isnt here. Bai Cai was doubtful, Last night, you guys Come, Wei Xiao slung an arm over his shoulders, Let elder brother tell you a secret. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao blinked, Ever since I joined FTW, the captain has discovered his true love. Lu Feng wasnt willing to mention old matters pertaining to FTW, and Wei Xiao wouldnt share it either. Bai Cai was surprised, Wh-what! Wei Xiao chuckled, The captain discovered that he likes the top lane, and I like jungler, so Wei Xiao shared the secret with his close brother, Quiet and Close are a team made in heaven! Bai Cai: Chapter 54: Were there any e-sports youths who didnt have dreams? To hell with your made in heaven! Hed been so worried that hed been sleepless all night, and now he had to come over and listen to this bullshit? Brother Cai had long seen through Wei Xiao. Even if this fellow said that hed slept with the captain, regardless of whether who was the top or bottom, or how they were a negative distance apart, he wouldnt believe a single word of it! Wei Xiaos mouth was incapable of speaking the truth. Brother Cai was numb. So Bai Cai extracted the essence of his words, The captain is switching lanes because he likes the top lane? Wei Xiao opened his mouth and came up with 180,000 reasons, Indeed. The captain has been playing jungler for so many years. He thought he was in love with playing jungler, and it wasnt until he saw me playing top lane that he fell for my free and easy play style and discovered his own love. It turns out that hed been confused about his feelings, and what he loved deeply was me my top lane. So Bai Cai: Speak with the human language. Wei Xiao was delighted, So, the captain is going to the top lane! Bai Cais heart was still uncertain, Are you sure? This kid was usually as sharp as a devil and nobody could even think of tricking him, but as soon as it came to Close, it was a real, living attack on his mental intelligence. Brother Cai had reason to suspect that the captain could coax the little lunatic into a little fool with just a few words. For details, please refer to LU. Wei Xiaos happiness couldnt be suppressed, Its true. You can rest assured that our captain feels no grievances or reluctance. He sincerely wants to go to the top lane, and Im the person who has given him release! Bai Cai: Can you f*cking not make it sound dirty! Wei Xiao coughed, It seems a little strange to say it that way, maybe it should be called liberation? Bai Cai: Shut up ahhhhh!! Wei Xiao slapped his right fist against his left palm, Unimportant. Just remember, the captain and I are a team born in heaven, and were good! Bai Cai didnt want to remember this at all. He urgently wanted to find disinfectant and clean out his brain! Bai Cai might be cursing Wei Xiao in his heart, but his face was relaxed. After being worried all night, getting a result like this was quite good. As long as Little Lunatic Wei had come back to life, Little Ning and Old Yue would also follow suit. Chen Feng had been right about this. With regards to the rhythm of the team, Wei Xiao was really gifted. Wei Xiaos heart remembered something else as well, Old Bai, let me ask you something. Bai Cai was absent-minded. After the stone that had been pressing down on his heart finally fell to the ground, he even started to feel a little sleepy, Hm? Wei Xiao: Do you know anything about the captains alt account? Bai Cais sleepiness disappeared, and he was instantly awake, Ah? Wei Xiao had suffered from insomnia for most of the night while comparing the captain with the boss. How could he not be worried about it now? Think about it carefully, does our captain have an alt account called LU? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao stared at him. Bai Cais face was as stable as an old dogs, even as his heart shuddered through a wave of panic, I dont know, hey. Wei Xiao didnt even blink. Bai Cai pushed him away, Why are you so close! Wei Xiao: Youre lying. Bai Cai: F*ck! Captain, come here quickly. I cant deal with your little lunatic! Wei Xiao crossed his arms over his chest and looked at him, Old Bai, youre acting suspicious. I was just asking about the captains alt account. Why are you nervous? Bai Cais back was sweating. He thought quickly, How the hell am I nervous. Are you sick or something? Isnt LU your boss? How is that even related to the captain. Wei Xiao: Oh, yeah. Bai Cai had seen many screenshots of his conversations with the boss, which was why he knew about the bosss ID. Ummm, was he overthinking it? Bai Cai had just walked on the edge between life and death. His heart had practically gotten a whole size bigger, Could it be that youre suspecting that your boss is the captain? When Wei Xiao saw him acting so logical and righteous, he became more and more uncertain. Bai Cai tossed this problem away quickly and neatly, If youre suspicious, why dont you just go and ask the captain about it? Wei Xiao fell silent for a moment, then said in a small voice, What should I do if it really is him? When had Bai Cai ever seen him act like this? He was shocked, What are you affecting embarrassment for? Has there ever been anything that can make you feel embarrassed? Wei Xiao was really feeling embarrassed, F*ck, Ive had so many heart to heart talks with the boss! Bai Cai knew about all the stupid things hed done and was left speechless for a moment. Wei Xiao looked up to the heavens and sighed, Also, I told the boss that the captain is my girlfriend, and told the captain that the boss is my girlfriend. If the two of them are the same person, then I Bai Cai thought that he was going to say that hed feel too ashamed to live. Little Lunatic Weis brain circuits were really different from those of ordinary people. Whatll I do if the captain misunderstood? Bai Cai: Misunderstand what. Wei Xiao: Misunderstand and think that I want him. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Misunderstand and think that I want him to be my girlfriend. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao was still overthinking it, Misunderstand and think that Im stepping on two boats! No way. He took the captain as his girlfriend one moment, and then treated his boss as his girlfriend the next. He was really a scum man! Bai Cai couldnt hold back anymore, Shut up and stop thinking! Wei Xiao also didnt know why he was suspecting the captain like this. Would the captain go out to find an accompanying player? Spend two million just for an accompanying player? However, what if the captain had long known it was him? Wei Xiaos heart trembled. Regret! Wei Xiaoxiao was really regretful right now! Why hadnt he secretly turned on the captains cell phone last night? That way, if hed sent a message to the boss, and the captain received it, wouldnt he Wei Xiao was startledCC Forget it, the captain really mustnt receive it! However Maybe he should find a chance to try it out that night? He didnt have to look at it too much, he just had to send a message. As long as the captains cell phone didnt light up, he could rest assured. While the two of them were talking, theyd already arrived at the restaurant. They encountered Gary when they sat down. Wei Xiao was quick to greet him, Old G, you can do it! There would be free matching in the afternoon. L&P really should work hard. Gary was enraged, Get lost! Garys pronunciation of other words might not be that good, but this phrase was particularly accurate. After all, he heard Yuan Ze curse every day. Wei Xiao wasnt interested in eating, but Bai Cai was greedy. When he heard that there was baked lobster at noon today, he couldnt sit still anymore, Just wait, Ill go and get you some lobster! Wei Xiao: You might as well squeeze me some watermelon juice instead. Bai Cai: What do you know? Watermelon juice is ten dollars per cup, while lobster babies are 300 each. Do you know how to calculate accounts or not?! Wei Xiao waved his hand, Okay okay okay, whatever Brother Wealth says. Bai Cai walked off in high spirits. A while later, Wei Xiao had already eaten his fill, yet Bai Cai hadnt come back. It was just a baked lobster. Was there really a queue for it? Wei Xiao finished off the last piece of watermelon and got up to look for him. The restaurant was very big, but the high and mighty support player, Brother Cai, was someone whose eyes could pierce through the fog of the Glory canyon every day. How could he get lost? He went to the barbecue area and saw several baked lobsters, but he didnt see Brother Cai. Where was he? Wei Xiao took out his cell phone and was just about to call Bai Cai when he heard someone call out to him, Quiet! Wei Xiao looked back and discovered that it was 3Us mid-laner, a relatively short fellow. Wei Xiao remembered his name, Li Chun? Whats up. Li Chun said, I just saw God Bai in the toilet. It seems that theres people blocking his way. Wei Xiao froze. Li Chun wanted to say something else, but Wei Xiao had already headed towards the toilet with big strides. Li Chuns heart was very uneasy. After all, they were from the same competition zone. FTW and 3U had always had a good relationship, and Bai Cai was quite popular. He was famous, but didnt put on any airs and often took care of newcomers. Everyone liked him a lot. And he didnt know what was up with that group of people. They looked like an European team, but they werent the Black Knights. It might be OD? Was there anything between God Bai and OD? Li Chun wasnt very clear about it, and hed wanted to go up to FTWs training room upstairs to call someone over. But hed seen Quiet on the way there, so hed quickly told him about it. But hed better still go upstairs and let FTWs coach know. Wei Xiao soon arrived at the bathroom. He heard a familiar voice. Old Bai, youre really nostalgic. The newcomer from FTW was your old teammate in the youth training camp, right? He already threw you away and ran off. Why are you looking out for him? Ah, you look so smart, but youre so stupid inside. Dont stay in FTW anymore. Come to OD, Ill look out for you. Wei Xiaos eyes were keen. He could pick out the Chinese person amongst the crowd of Westerners. Wei Xiao knew that person. Although hed never seen him in person, he actually knew his name. In 2018, the Glory training camps newcomer king had been Wei Xiao; in 2020, it was Ning Zhehan; in 2019, it was this man. His name was Zhou Xingfei. Bai Cai and the words newcomer kings really couldnt be separated, but the relationships were messy and chaotic. There was no need to mention Wei Xiao. Ning Zhehan was now also one of his teammates. Zhou Xingfei was the most ball breaking one. Hed tricked Bai Cai into losing one million yuan, then dusted off his ass and gone abroad. Brother Cai had always been greedy for money. After losing this one million yuan, hed shut himself up for a whole month. Wei Xiao had been busy with his own studies at the time. When he came back and saw Bai Cai, hed been shocked. Brother Cai had always been skinny, but in a single short month, hed gotten two sizes thinner, and his small body simply looked like it would topple with a breeze. At the time, Bai Cai hadnt yet entered FTW. Hed been very confused about his future, and all he wanted to do was to roll himself up and go back home to raise pigs. Wei Xiao had been startled and had quickly dragged the man back. It took a long time before Wei Xiao could help him stabilize his emotions and understand what was going on. Two years ago, after Wei Xiao had left, Bai Cai hadnt had a smooth time of it. In the professional circles, the support position had always been an awkward one. Strong, rich teams would place a lot of importance on the support position. FTWs previous captain, Yan Jiang, had been valued at an amazingly high price. However, ordinary teams really didnt pay much attention to the support position. This was because the funds for smaller teams were limited, and they could only use their limited funds to fight for better core players. For them, any player could fill the support position and do a passable job of it. Bai Cai had been a rookie at the time, but because he had followed Wei Xiao and kicked up a big ruckus while in the training camp, hed been signed by a second rate team. This was a pretty good start for a newcomer, but unfortunately, the team wasnt very humane, and they played favorites, allowing others in the team to suppress Bai Cai. Bai Cai was wronged for an entire season. In 2019, he met that years newcomer king, Zhou Xingfei. At the time, Bai Cai had rose colored filters when it came to newcomer kings. Even though Zhou Xingfei and Wei Xiao had different personalities, he couldnt help but be partial towards this newcomer king. After all, they had all come from the same youth training camp. This bastard Zhou Xingfei had made use of his relationship with Bai Cai to increase his own value. He encouraged Bai Cai, Dont stay in that garbage team. Come with me to AE. You can play support for me, and the two of us can definitely beat out a bloody path! AE could be considered as a first rate team in the Chinese competition zone, and their playoff results had always been very good. Who wasnt ambitious in the e-sports circle? Back then, Bai Cais passion hadnt yet faded. He was swayed by Zhou Xingfeis words. But I still have a year to go before my contract with Boro expires. Zhou Xingfei said, Cancel the contract! How many years can professional players play for? Why waste time in such a garbage team?! Bai Cai hesitated. Zhou Xingfei asked him, How much is the penalty for breach of contract? Bai Cai had always been sensitive to money, About a million. Zhou Xingfei sneered, Its only one million. Youve already been playing professionally for a year. Havent you been able to save up that amount? Bai Cai was a support position player. The team didnt value him, and they hadnt helped promote him. He wasnt popular, and his livestream room was cold and quiet whenever he streamed. Zhou Xingfei saw that Bai Cai was hesitating and said, Forget it. If you dont want to be my teammate, then I wont ask you. These words stimulated Bai Cai. He said, If we go to AE, will we be starters? Zhou Xingfei: Of course. Bai Cai paid over one million yuan in liquidated damages and terminated his contract with the Boro team. As a result Zhou Xingfei had climbed up to new heights and was signed away by the European club OD. Bai Cai went to look for Zhou Xingfei. Zhou Xingfei felt no guilt at all, Go to AE. Its not a problem. AE is much better than Boro! At that moment, Bai Cai understood that he had been blind. Hed been played. Wei Xiao hadnt known that Zhou Xingfei had also come to attend winter training. This fellow actually dared to come see Bai Cai? Who gave him such courage. Was it an ambulance! Wei Xiao opened up his cell phone and clicked a few things, then placed it in his pocket and stepped forward, Oh, isnt this God Zhou? The three people from OD turned their heads and noticed Wei Xiao. There was a cracking sound in Bai Cais heart. Wei Xiaos current appearance was the same as the one hed seen just last night They were no longer in the youth training camp. If Wei Xiao hit someone, he would be banned from playing! Bai Cai ws just about to speak up when he heard Zhou Xingfei say, Wei Xiao? Wei Xiao stepped forward and spoke in English, God Zhou, when are you paying back the one million that you owe our White? Everyone present was stunned for a moment. Zhou Xingfei obviously hadnt expected Wei Xiao to say such a thing as soon as he appeared, and hed also used fluent English, ensuring that his teammates could all understand. Zhou Xingfei tossed back, Since when do I owe him money! Wei Xiao: You important people all have many things to consider and are often forgetful. Back then, you tricked him into terminating his contract, then turned around, dusted off your butt and just left. Do you really not owe him for that? Zhou Xingfei immediately defended himself, When did I trick him? Didnt he go to AE afterwards? Bai Cai had indeed gone to AE. He didnt play in a single game and sat on the bench for an entire month before being tossed to the secondary team and left to fend for himself. Wei Xiao was too lazy to deal with his nonsense and got to the point, How about this. Were all professional players, and fighting will get us banned from playing. How about a training match instead? Zhou Xingfei: Whatever. Wei Xiao: If you lose, our White doesnt want that one million back. Itll be a gift for you to buy a coffin with. But you have to bow to White and apologize. Zhou Xingfei was so angry he was laughing, Why should I do that? Why should our OD play a training match with your FTW? Wei Xiaos tone was indifferent, Because if your OD wins, I will personally take out two million as your fee for your hard work. These words were spoken in English. The other people from OD were shocked. Two million wasnt a small sum! Bai Cai abruptly lifted his head and looked at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao narrowed his eyes, You dont dare to agree? God Zhou, how can you be so spineless. xiin: badass Wei Xiao is so badass~ Chapter 55: Go to FTW! If you can play support for me, then you can definitely play support for him! anslator: xiin editors: apricot & juurensha Zhou Xingfeis expression was very ugly. Wei Xiao had forced him into a situation where he had no choice but to fight. Zhou Xingfei had noticed how popular FTW had been over the past two days. As a team that was on the downtrend in the China competition zone, not only had they not fallen into becoming a garbage team, but theyd actually stirred up such a big ruckus with their training match. Zhou Xingfei was really unwilling to accept it. Especially given that Bai Cai was still in FTW. In the past year, Zhou Xingfei hadnt had an easy time in OD. Even without mentioning his own personal problems, his personal strength wasnt enough for him to be able to stand steadily in the European competition zone. He was a newcomer. If it hadnt been that he was able to take care of himself, and the fact that Yan Jiang and Xie He, who were also Chinese, had both managed to make outstanding achievements in the European competition zone, OD wouldnt have chosen him at all. OD might not be one of the strongest teams in Europe, but they were strong enough to leave the Chinese teams a few streets behind. Zhou Xingfei, whod suffered for a year before finally making some progress, had originally wanted to show off to his old friend in the training camp. However, who couldve known that Bai Cai would steal his limelight? The entire winter training camp was discussing FTW. Even ODs coaching team had come to him to ask about the situation. Zhou Xingfei was good at dealing with these things, and hed given a very proper reply. Hed also deliberately stated that Bai Cai had once been his teammate, and if necessary, he could help them arrange a training match. He knew that the European zone looked down on the Chinese teams, and it wasnt likely that they would want a training match. Especially since Zhou Xingfei was a rookie. If Bai Cai had been his teammate, then it meant that he must also be a newcomer. In FTW, other than Close, everyone else was a newcomer. No matter how much they shouted and hollered, they were just blindly hopping and jumping around. That was the impression that Zhou Xingfei had purposely wanted to give. Sure enough, the coach had lost interest and hadnt mentioned it again. The fire of irritation Zhou Xingfei felt in his heart was burning higher and higher. Today, hed unexpectedly run into Bai Cai in the restaurant, and he couldnt hold back for a moment longer! Why was Bai Cai so lucky? After being benched in AE for a month, hed actually been picked up by FTW. It was really great. And FTW was very different this year. Was Bai Cai, this tight assed miser, really going to make a comeback? Zhou Xingfei really didnt feel that hed done anything wrong back then. Man struggled upwards, while water flowed downwards. Why should he have stayed in the country when he had a chance to step towards a bigger future? If nothing else, after staying in OD for a season or two, he would become a star player that others fought over when he returned home. With such a good opportunity in front of him, why wouldnt he go? Was he an idiot? It was true that Bai Cai had helped him out a little when he was in the youth training camp, but it wasnt worth giving up his future for the sake of that! Besides, he hadnt forced Bai Cai to terminate his contract. Boro had been a garbage team, and theyd disbanded the very next year. Bai Cai leaving early had clearly been a good thing. If Bai Cai hadnt terminated his contract back then, would he be in FTW eating and living well now? The more Zhou Xingfei thought about it, the more he felt that he hadnt done anything wrong. He even felt that Bai Cai was attacking him instead. Wasnt it just something from the past, why was he treating it like it was so important! Zhou Xingfei: A training match isnt something I can He really didnt want to have this training match. It was risky no matter how he looked at it. It hadnt been easy for him to finally stand stably in OD. He couldnt afford to take risks! His teammate spoke up, Zhou, lets do it! Zhou Xingfei was stunned. A trace of ridicule flashed through Wei Xiaos eyes. Zhou Xingfei saw it and realized hed fallen into a trap! The player from OD said, Whats there to be scared of? Is it even possible for us to lose? The bait of two million yuan was too attractive. Anyone who heard about it would feel excited. Zhou Xingfei explained to his teammates, But I didnt trick him into losing money. Why should I apologize? The OD team members were surprised, How come youve already decided that well lose before we even play? Zhou Xingfei: A person who didnt treat his former teammates like human beings, shouldnt expect his current teammates to treat him like a human being. An apology was completely disproportionate to a bet of two million. In the eyes of the other members of OD, a training match was just a matter of losing nothing and feeling no pain if they lost and gaining two million if they won. Why shouldnt they play? Zhou Xingfei was already in a position where he couldnt back down, and his teammates were dissatisfied with him, Zhou, you really dont trust us at all. These words were rather heavy. Zhou Xingfei didnt want to enter a conflict with his teammates before the season even began. He tried to defend himself, I just feel that an unfair contest brings no honor to the victor! His teammate: Any game thats won with strength is fair! Wei Xiao saw that the situation had basically heated up to where he wanted it and spoke up again, Since God Zhou has so many scruples, how about we just drop it. Zhou Xingfei looked at him warily. Wei Xiao continued, Free matching is about to start. Well try to climb up the scoreboard together. If FTW makes it to the top three, well choose OD; if OD makes it to the top three, then you guys can do as you like. Zhou Xingfei froze. It sounded as though Wei Xiao had taken a step back, and it seemed as though he was giving him a way out. FTW make it into the top three? This little brat really dared to talk! Everyone knew that FTW had come in seventh yesterday. Since it was the first day of free matching, there had been many teams who had a wait and see attitude. They werent in a hurry to score points, wanting to explore other teams routines first so that it would be easier to grab the bonus pool in the future. However, that wasnt the case for FTW. Zhou Xingfei had seen the records for their fights, and the teams 2+2+1 combination was one that was clearly focused on winning points. Although Zhou Xingfei hadnt finished watching all their matches, after picking out a random game, he could tell that theyd been playing very seriously. FTW had been serious about scoring points, but theyd ended up losing messily. With that level of skill, could they enter the top three today? ODs players couldnt help themselves anymore, Zhou, dont worry, we can definitely win! Someone was rushing over to give them money. Anyone who didnt take it was a fool! Zhou Xingfei was left with no way out. He wanted to say that a training match was something the coaching team had to decide on, and whatever he said wouldnt count since he was a player, but now that argument had been completely killed off when Wei Xiao mentioned the scoreboard. Besides he didnt believe that FTW could make it to the top three! Zhou Xingfei stared at Wei Xiao, If you guys dare to make an appointment, then of course well play! Wei Xiao didnt step back at all, If you lose, you have to apologize to White for tricking him into terminating his contract. Zhou Xingfei had originally wanted to continue explaining that he hadnt tricked Bai Cai, but when he thought about how nobody else was here and how his teammates might blow up if he tried to push the situation any further, he became more direct, Fine! OD team member: And what if you lose? Wei Xiao: Your two million in labor fees, Ill pay it in full. The people from OD left. Bai Cai grabbed at Wei Xiaos arm, Are you crazy! How was this even related to anything? In order to make a statement, hed put down two million? How motherf*cking retarded was that! Wei Xiao: If I didnt do that, would those idiots be baited? Bai Cai was super anxious, Do I even f*cking need his apology? Wei Xiao looked at him. His eyes were solemn and serious. Whenever he wasnt smiling, the features of this handsome youth who was normally always grinning and cheeky would appear extremely cold. The feeling he gave off even started to resemble Close. Wei Xiao: If it wasnt for the sake of FTW, I wouldve sent him to the hospital a long time ago! Bai Cai was shocked inside. A thick stream of heat trickled in like magma and slowly filled up his chest, feeling so heavy that it was difficult for him to speak. What had happened back then Bai Cai had thought that hed let it go a long time ago. Why should he keep such a white-eyed wolf in his heart? However, in reality, peoples hearts were soft. Once they had been scratched, it would take a long time for them to heal. In 2019, Bai Cai had only been 18 years old. Hed followed Wei Xiao and experienced the hot blooded passion of e-sports, then met Zhou Xingfei while in a helpless position, after suffering from a cold welcome to reality with Boro. Bai Cai had thought that hed met a teammate, someone who was like Wei Xiao, who was worthy of being trusted and followed. Unfortunately, Zhou Xingfei was completely different from Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was very inspiring and motivational. Even if it had only been in the youth training camp, it had made Bai Cai feel the charm of chasing after his dreams as a youth. Zhou Xingfei only had the ability to talk and sell people. He talked about following dreams, but in reality, it was all out of selfishness. Bai Cai used one million yuan to terminate the contract. Not only had he used up all the savings hed put together, all of his own expectations and dreams were riding on it as well. As for Zhou Xingfei, hed been relaxed and carefree as he abandoned him, and had practically even stomped all over it before he left. Hed crushed Bai Cais hopes and had almost crushed Bai Cais life. How difficult had things been for Bai Cai back then? He had no money and no team. He had supposedly entered AE, but because there was no formal contract, he was faced with cold gazes and ridicule. How desperate was it for an 18 year old youth to pass his days in such an aimless way? Bai Cai had really wanted to give up. Hed packed up his things and prepared to go back to his hometown. He could work or farm; he hadnt graduated from high school, so there were no future prospects there. Just being able to feed himself would be enough. It had been Wei Xiao whod insisted that he stay. Wei Xiao had used a lot of energy to understand the cause and effect of the whole situation, and hed wanted to go and find Zhou Xingfei right then and there. Unfortunately, that scum had long gone abroad. Whats more, it was pointless to go find him. He could beat him up to vent his anger, but it wouldnt solve anything. Wei Xiaos advice to him had been: Go to FTW! Bai Cai hugged Soybean and smiled bitterly, Even if FTW declines even further, theyre still a powerful team within the country. Why would they want a player like me with no achievements? Wei Xiaos eyes were firm and confident, Go and find Close, and tell him that you can play support for him! Bai Cai was stunned. Wei Xiao: If you can play support for me, then you can definitely play support for him! Bai Cais scalp tingled, and his hands trembled slightly, But Wei Xiao ignited his motivation with a single sentence, What are you cowering for, youre about to go home and raise pigs, how about just going for it one last time? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao pulled him up and dragged him to the internet cafe. The two of them constantly double queued, double queued, double queued. Wei Xiao could basically simulate all the jungler talents that Close often used. He used Closes style to play jungler and led Bai Cai to adapt and become familiar with it. It was like this for one day, two days, three days Not only did Wei Xiao help him find the hand feel, he also helped him with rhythm and direction. One week later, Wei Xiao was full of confidence, Go, Old Bai! Close will definitely love you so much he wont let you go! Bai Cai was amused into laughter, Get lost, what kind of bullshit are you saying! Wei Xiao thought about it, then retorted back at him, Dont judge the great demon king based on how cold his face is. In fact, hes a very good person. Proper women are scared of being entangled. If hes unwilling to play double queue with you, then just set up camp on FTWs floor and refuse to leave! Bai Cai: Get lost, get lost, get lost! Originally, hed still been a little nervous. After being stirred up by Wei Xiao, to hell with being nervous! Bai Cai went to FTW. Hed never even dreamed that hed have the courage to say a sentence like, Close, I can be your support player! Close had given him a chance. Bai Cai had indeed achieved it. In 2020, he accompanied FTW to win the domestic championship and became Chinas champion support player. When Bai Cai thought of the past, his heart was full of mixed feelings. How could there be such a huge gap between different people. There was Zhou Xingfei, who made people feel sick, and there was Wei Xiao, who gave people a new lease on life. Bai Cai sighed, If a dog bites you, do you really have to go and bite it back? Wei Xiao replied, This matter shouldve been wrapped up a long time ago. Bai Cai was still worried, If you want to make an appointment for a training match, just do it privately. Why did you have to make it a points competition? The three training matches held every evening were also called the competition for points, and it could be considered a livestream gimmick for the investor daddies. Wei Xiaos voice was steady, I want him to apologize to you in public. Simply saying sorry was nothing. He wanted Zhou Xingfei to apologize to Bai Cai in front of all 18 teams, in front of the livestream camera, in front of the whole audience! Even if what happened in the past was a long time ago, even if nobody knew about those things, he still wanted Zhou Xingfei to pay for what hed done! Bai Cais heart felt like it was boiling hot, and the tip of his nose felt sour, Damn it. This doggy thing was really going to make him cry. A series of footsteps rushed over. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were both breathless and panting from running. Ning Zhehan: Brother, Brother Bai, you are you all right! Hed hurried over just in time to see Bai Cais reddened eyes. When Li Chun arrived at the FTW training room, Chen Feng and Xiang Liu hadnt been there. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had just finished their meal and were preparing to kill some soldiers to warm up and so that theyd have a better feel for the game when they started the free matching games. Li Chun had quickly told them about what was happening in the bathroom of the restaurant. These two little ones had rushed over anxiously after thanking him. It was a big taboo for professional players to fight, especially in the training grounds where everything was under monitoring. It didnt matter who started the fight; it would be troublesome to have it in their records. The competition committee couldnt be blamed for being so harsh. It was true that e-sports players were young and impulsive, yet it was also true that they were very much in the public eye. It had been difficult for e-sports to gain more of a positive reputation in recent years, and nobody wanted to have this reputation tarnished. Therefore, fighting was absolutely not allowed. If the punishment was mild, the players would be banned from competing for a period of time. If it was serious, they wouldnt be able to compete for life. The penalties were very heavy. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle saw that there were no signs of fighting anywhere and let out sighs of relief. When theyd heard Li Chuns words, theyd rushed down in a hurry, wanting to stop a fight from happening as soon as possible. They hadnt even dared to waste time calling Chen Feng. Fortunately, nothing had happened with Bai Cai and Wei Xiao. Bai Cai wiped his face messily and said, Its fine, why did you all run over He hadnt finished speaking yet when Wei Xiao had already pulled the two little ones over and started chattering, Brothers, help me out. Ning Zhehan & Yue Wenle: ??? Wei Xiao: Some fool bullied our Brother Cai, and I was impulsive and made a two million yuan training match bet He summarized everything with a few words, and Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were both muddled. Holy shit! Two million! Wei Xiao added fuel to the fire, In fact, if we cant make it into the top three of the scoreboard today, itll be equal to me losing without even fighting. Ning Zhehan was shocked, Youll have to give them two million? Wei Xiao nodded solemnly, Yes. Not only Little Ning, even Old Yue sucked in a breath. Bai Cai, who was to the side, If he hadnt been about to start crying, he would definitely go up and start cursing. Wei Xiao, could you f*cking stop bullshitting ahhhhhhh! Wei Xiao shook his head, In fact, its fine if I lose money. The main thing is losing face for our Brother Cai. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle didnt know about what had happened to Bai Cai back then. Wei Xiao didnt care about whether Bai Cai was shy about it or not, and he told the two of them about how Zhou Xingfei had bullied Bai Cai. They were all close brothers. They would share this bitter hatred and bully that scum together! Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle instantly exploded in anger, F*ck, thats going overboard! Bai Cai: After listening to this black history a few more times, he didnt even feel the pain in his heart anymore. Wei Xiao patted Little Ning and Old Yue on the shoulder and said solemnly, Fellow brothers, it will be a bloody battle today! Ning Zhehan was on fire, We definitely cant lose! Yue Wenle chomped down viciously on a mouthful of potato chips! Wei Xiao made a closing statement, For the sake of our Caicais innocence, we must win! Bai Cai: ??? Innocence, your sister! Could you speak with human words?! Little Ning spoke in a small voice, Hey, Brother Xiao, its reputation, right? Wei Xiao thought about it and continued to be expansive, For the sake of Brother Cais desire and passion, we must win! Bai Cai: F*ck you ahhhhhhh!! They went to eat baked lobster to replenish their strength. Wei Xiao even got a cup of watermelon juice that Brother Cai had squeezed out personally. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle went with them and ate another meal. After they had eaten their fill, the four of them went upstairs. When Chen Feng went over to check in on them, he was a little surprised, Are you not drawing lots today? Wei Xiao: Ill double queue with Brother Cai today. Ning Zhehan raised his hand, Brother Le and I will double queue together! Yue Wenle: Mm. Bai Cai had a sore throat. Lu Feng arrived five minutes before the free matching began, and saw that the four little ones were full of fighting spirit. He looked at Chen Feng, ? Chen Feng had already learned the full story, and his skull was pounding, You just keep indulging him! Lu Feng looked at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao smiled at him, Thanks, captain! Lu Feng was shaken by his words, Whats the matter? Wei Xiao: Thanks to the two million break-up fee you gave me, I was able to act so fiercely today! Indeed. Wei Xiao had dared to throw down such fierce words because he really did have money in his bank account. It wasnt the money hed made from the accompanying player platform. It was the two million that Lu Feng had sent to Wei Xiao. It was the bullshit break-up fee that Wei Xiao had asked for. Oh, it was the break-up fee that hed planned and failed to give to his girlfriend. Lu Feng paused for a moment, then corrected him. Its not a break-up fee. Wei Xiao blinked. Lu Feng rubbed his soft black hair, Its private spending money. xiin: OMG EVERYONE! Check out this fanart that Egg and Rice (Egg and Rice#4025) made of the FTW team~~ I quote: [ These are the expressions of the other members of FTW that I imagine they would have after having little lunatic Wei Xiao around for awhile. ] arent they the cutest ahhhhhh!!!! Chapter 56: Captain, what do you mean by private spending money? Private-private spending money? Even Little Lunatic Wei was confused for a moment. The people in the training room didnt even dare to breathe too loudly and only wished they could dive beneath the tables. Chen Feng: Lu Feng glanced at him, What happened. Chen Feng explained Wei Xiaos heroic deeds in two or three sentences. It was inevitable that Bai Cais pain was taken out and put on display again. Sure enough, if a wound was going to heal, it needed to be brought out into the light. In just one short hour, Bai Cais attitude had changed dramatically. To hell with being depressed, to hell with having been betrayed. Did that spicy chickenZhou Xingfei deserve any of that?! Did he deserve Brother Cais despair?! After listening, Lu Feng looked at Wei Xiao and said, Dont use your private spending money. In the future, this kind of thing will come from the club. The training room: !!! Chen Fengs eyes had popped so far out of his head that they had almost left the universe! Wei Xiao was instantly excited, F*ck the captain is too good! Bai Cais mouth twitched. It was bad enough that he dropped such words; couldnt he add in some punctuation!? What the hell was this sentence. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao was alerted and quickly changed his words, Captain, youre too good! His tone was very well-behaved. The tip of Lu Fengs ear moved slightly, but his expression didnt change at all, Mm. Wei Xiao added, However, you dont have to worry. This money definitely wont be lost! He then looked at Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle, Brothers, the captain is so righteous and great, so we cant let him down. In this battle, were fighting not only for Bai Cais innocence, but also for the team leaders generous spirit! Bai Cai tried to explain weakly, What damned innocence Chen Feng also had a headache. When it came to injecting chicken blood, if Wei Xiao claimed to be second best at it, then nobody would dare to claim to be number one. After Wei Xiaos frenzied thoughts gradually cooled down, he thought about the matter of private spending money again. He was sitting next to Lu Feng. Because Brother Cai had been so lucky with the matches yesterday, he was still the room host for their free matching today, and the right to start queueing was in Brother Cais hands. Wei Xiao just needed to idle and wait for the system to match them into a game. He leaned in and whispered to Lu Feng, Captain, what do you mean by private spending money? It was too difficult to ignore these words! If these three words were put into Baidu, the results that came out would all pertain to matters between boyfriends and girlfriends. In order not to end up matching into the same game as them, Lu Feng hadnt started matching yet, What do you think it means? Wei Xiao lowered his voice, Could it be that the two million is your private spending money? Do you have a girlfriend? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao continued to dig for gossip, Who is it? Theres been no hint of it, captain Lu Feng interrupted him, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: Here! Lu Feng: Thats your private spending money. Wei Xiao was confused for a moment, Ah? Lu Feng looked at him meaningfully. Wei Xiaos heart stuttered for a moment, and he inexplicably thought of those messed up words hed said himselfCC My girlfriend is very powerful when working, but shes very cute in private Shes the cutest when she plays the fire mage, bouncing around and jumping straight to the top of my heart F*ck, no way! Lu Feng pushed lightly at his small head, Youve entered a game. Wei Xiao turned his head to look. Oh, hed entered a game. If they wanted to get into the top three on the scoreboard, it wasnt simply about winning. They had to win as many matches as possible within a limited period of time. So, time was critical, and every minute and second shouldnt be wasted. However Wei Xiaos heart was itchy and uneasy. He always had the feeling that Lu Feng was hinting something at him. Was the captain really the boss? The boss was his girlfriend, so his girlfriend was giving him private spending money? Wei Xiaos brain was full of crazy thoughts Bai Cai: What are you using? Wei Xiao: Shadow thief. After saying these two words out loud, Wei Xiao took a deep breath and calmed down. Their top priority was to score points and abuse those scum in the evening. He mustnt get distracted! The matter regarding the private spending money wasnt urgent. When they went back to the room that night, he was going to find his girlfriend and ask questions until everything was out in the open! Lu Feng gave him a sidelong glance. There was a hint of a smile in his eyes. Hed done it on purpose. Hed stimulated Wei Xiao deliberately and flustered him on purpose. What did it mean to be big-hearted? It wasnt just about being calm and self-sustaining on the court, but also about being able to quickly calm down when encountering unexpected situations and being able to function while under great pressure. The charm of competitions lay in their unpredictability. All sorts of accidents, changes, and incidents could occur during the fight. Being able to adjust ones mood under heavy pressure was the real proof of mental strength. Obviously, Wei Xiao had this ability. He had a clear sense of priorities and was able to make adjustments. This wasnt something that could just be done by talking. Personality and growth experiences also played a role. When it came to Wei Xiaos childhood, Lu Feng felt a thorn stab his heartCC Behind excellence, there were always unknown sacrifices. After entering the game, Wei Xiao completely stopped thinking about the captain and the boss. He controlled the shadow thief with the Red Sky Blade skin, and his heart was filled with a different set of emotions. This was the first time hed maneuvered a hero as FTWs jungler. Although it wasnt a formal match, although it was just a free match game, although nobody else knew the feeling Wei Xiao had was different. It was as though, in this moment, hed really come into contact with the shadow thief. He was really ready to try and carve out his name on this scarlet cloak. Wei Xiao breathed lightly, Old Bai, start with blue. (Note: It means to clear the mana regen/blue creep in the jungle first) Bai Cai: Okay. In the first game, Wei Xiao and Bai Cai pressured the other side from start to end. The shadow thief that was going at full strength pummeled the frost hunter on the other side so much that his scalp went numb. In the later stages, his opponent would use flash as soon as he saw the stealth indicator, but he was still unable to dodge that fatal blade. Chen Feng stopped behind Bai Cai. As many top commentators and coaches had commented before, FTWs champion support was excellent, but he could be even better. He had reached a level of play that was beyond reproach, but hed never thought of breaking through his own limits. However, the current Bai Cai was different. The cooled blood had been ignited, and the blood that was boiling with passion flowed all over his body again! In the second game, Wei Xiao and Bai Cai encountered Li Chun, the little mid-laner whod notified them about the situation with Bai Cai at noon. Wei Xiao had already told Bai Cai about it, but Brother Vegetable hadnt had time to say thanks to him yet. Wei Xiao spoke in the public screen, Brother Chun, Im sorry~. At this moment, Li Chun hadnt realized yet what would happen. Then Ahhhh! Aahhhhh! Aaahhhhhhh! The people in the 3U training room, Whats wrong with you? Li Chuns eyes were full of tears, Quiet-Quiet is inhuman! As a mid-laner, a fortress-type mid-laner, his fatal weakness was that he was squishy, and his legs were short. When faced with this berserker thief that seemed to have gone crazy, Li Chuns fire mage was like a passive refresh machine. Yes one whose purpose was to give its life to the berserker thief! After the game ended, Bai Cai looked at Wei Xiao, Werent you a little too cruel. Wei Xiao stretched his fingers and said, I only went all out because were brothers. After going through this experience, Li Chuns name could be changed to Bold Li. What was there to be afraid of? What was so scary about a berserker thief? Could it be as scary as Quiet?! The two of them scored 12 points in one fell swoop. It was much more than yesterday. It wasnt that the two of them hadnt been playing seriously yesterday, but they hadnt really let loose. One had always been thinking about training to play in the top lane, and the other was always worried about losing money if their points went negative. In that kind of situation, the reason why theyd still been able to win six points when playing against professional players was all due to the tacit understanding they had from playing together for so many years. Today was different. Wei Xiao was like a wild horse that had been let loose. He ran ahead crazily, and there was no way to stop him. Under his leadership, Bai Cai could only work hard to catch up with him. In the third match, they matched with the jungler from the Black Knights whod come in fifth on the scoreboard yesterday. Wei Xiao: The Black Knights are from the European competition zone? OD was also in Europe. Bai Cai: Yes. Wei Xiao: Kill him! Black Knights jungler: ??? This European jungler king whod been solo queueing was inexplicably targeted to death so refreshingly. What was up with this Quiet from FTW? Wasnt he playing the top lane position? Why was his jungler so fierce! In the fourth match, they entered a doubles game. The pair across from them were also old acquaintances. Previously, in the performance games, Wei Xiao and Yuan Ze had come up against this doubles pair from the South Korean competition zone. The Chinese competition zone had given them a CP name that matched their predecessors CP nameCCCarp CP. The Carp combination had been cut down until they entered seclusion last time when they came up against Wei Xiaos shadow thief. At this time, they were both tense when they saw him. What a coincidence!? Wei Xiao chuckled gleefully, Old Bai, stay close. Bai Cai: Theres some lyrics that really suit you Wei Xiao: Huh? Brother Cai started singing, Your smile is like a vicious dog, biting down on the back of his neck What they didnt know was that the fans watching these matches back in China were so excited they were about to explode! At first, very few people were watching their games. No matter how amazing Wei Xiao was, he was still a newcomer. In this kind of free matching where star players were as plentiful as trees in a forest, everyones eyes were dazzled. It was like the emperors of old who could choose from 3000 beauties in their harem. How could they have any extra energy to spare? However, anyone who went to watch Wei Xiaos games had all stayed there and couldnt move away. These two are toxic! Are they so strong??? This jungler is FTWs top-laner, right? Holy shit, has he gone crazy? How come his murderous intent is so strong?! The old fans whod watched four full matches explained calmly, Remember to watch the replays, each game is a tear down game! The scrolling commenters were confused, Tear down game? The fans whod coined the phrase explained, Tearing down the opponents core into two, is a tear down game. After listening to this explanation, the passerby whod clicked in to watch inadvertently would hesitate for a moment and continue to watch. And then Calling it tear down was really too polite! This was simply like watching a crazy dog play! SKs Ali and Ayu held their heads in their hands and wept bitterly after the match ended. What was going on?! Hadnt Quiet just entered the team? How come he and FTWs support player played together like old partners whod queued for thousands of games together?! The two of them had really hit the nail on the head. Over the past two years, over 600 plus days, the number of double queue games that Wei Xiao and Bai Cai had played together was a shocking number, high enough to rival the number of stars in the sky. How should this be said? From a certain angle, Brother Cais luck was really incredibly good. Yesterday, theyd wanted to find excitement and stimulation, and Brother Cai had matched them up with all kinds of old beasts, allowing Wei Xiao to play happily even if they lost. Today, they wanted to score points, and Brother Cai didnt encounter even a single thorn. In the whole process, he just watched as Wei Xiao rampaged and charged up ahead, blowing up the entire canyon. Unwittingly, after playing for more than three hours, Brother Cai started to feel pain in his fingers that he hadnt experienced for a long time. Indeed Following after a Little Lunatic Wei, who was going at full speed ahead, was enough to break his keyboard! FTW was full of enthusiasm, and the other two teams were also working hard. Old G seized every minute and every second to score points that day. In order to win more, he even went to double queue with his own teams support player. The man whod said that only weak players would double queue, had actually slapped himself in the face in order to obtain first place! However With 10 minutes to go, Old G, whod won all his games that day, looked up. Awesome! L&P was winning with a three point lead. The first place team had the right to choose their opponents for the training match first. Today, he was going to hammer Duck me! Old G swore in Chinese with a thick, non-standard accent. Yuan Ze had noticed the scoreboard a long time ago and knew what the results were. 1st: L&P. 2nd: Pro. 3rd: FTW. Old G was so angry hed exploded into a ball, Why is FTW third! Those in the top three could only choose opponents and couldnt be chosen. Old G, whod worked hard for half a dayCC Had he done all that hard work for nothing? xiin: lol, poor Gary apricot: ah poor garyif only he knew quiet had already forgotten him Chapter 57.1: Had FTW submitted the wrong list?! Inside L&Ps training room, Old G was sad and angry, Quiet, youre f*cking with me! His own captain was indifferent and ruthless, like snow after the frost, sweeping across like an irresistible force, Did you actually believe his words. Gary: Dont ask. If you ask, then he had already smashed himself dead against the keyboard! On Pros side Kim Sung-hyun wasnt as silly and sweet as Old G. Hed noticed FTWs scores soaring like a rocket a long time ago. Why had Old G been able to win every game? It was because in the last half an hour, God Kim had given up on treatment. What was the use of grabbing first place? The stinky brat had already broken their agreement! The scoreboard results came out, and Kim Sung-hyuns expression was cold. He looked very intimidating when he wasnt smiling, especially with the tear mole on his face that made him appear even more pale and chilly. Out of the entire team, only Li Heran dared to poke him, Water. Kim Sung-hyun handed over the water cup, Its your fault! Li Heran: God Kim spoke very reasonably, Our luck is only good when you and I double queue together! This afternoon, not to mention Wei Xiao, he hadnt even met a single one of FTWs players. If hed encountered any of them, he wouldve definitely hammered them until they lost points in their next game too! Did they want to stay steady in third place? Had they asked the arrows in his hand for permission? It was a pity that As only one half of the Koi combo, he was unable to get a luck buff. The hearts of the teammates around him were full of complaints: Who was it whod insisted on single queueing right from the start, saying that it would be faster to score points that way and not to waste time? Li Heran was silent for a moment, Okay, youre right. Everyone in Pro: Okay, the captain was really the captain. He was a true man who could stretch and bend! Free matching was over. Dinner finished in a hurry, and the training camp ushered in that nights points competition. 18 teams gathered together in one hall. The camera panned the scene, and the lineups were in no way inferior to that of any official match. It was just that the audience wasnt fans, it was other players from around the world. The fans who were camped in the livestream room had started talking about it enthusiastically a long time ago! Sure enough, there was no suspense about the 1st and 2nd place. L&P and Pro were very serious this time. Look at Yan Jiang and Xie He from Group B, theyre completely just playing around. Its really quite strange. The atmosphere in Group A is inexplicably heated, and all of them are trying desperately to grab points. Based on the rules for the points competition, theres no need to be so competitive in the early stages. Exactly, exactly, its a bonus pool system. Isnt it better to first wait and see? I dont get it Who cares? This year, our China competition zone is really making a good showing. Group As 3U and FTW are taking turns for third place, while Group Bs Moon God and Euro God are taking turns for second place! Damn, did you guys watch the Group B points competition last night? Yeah, yeah, our RRs really damned cool! They went straight for an appointment with EVE! Moon God took the immortal warlock and even took down EVEs God Xie! Although RR lost, I think that RRs become really strong this year. They even made Xie He play seriously. I feel that the four Chinese teams participating in winter training this year are all very inspiring. Therell be a good show to watch in the domestic competition this year. Aahhhh, I hope that this years China competition zone will make achievements in the global championships! The host spoke a few routine sentences, then began to announce the start of that days matches. The first game was undoubtedly L&Ps. Old G went up onto the stage with a bad expression on his face, glaring at Wei Xiao the whole time. Wei Xiao: ??? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao was shameless enough to ask, Whats up with Old G, is his eye twitching? Bai Cai disdained him, Damned scum man. Wei Xiao suddenly saw the light, Hey, isnt this all for your sake? I even forgot about God G! Bai Cai inexplicably felt a chill run down his back and cursed, Shut up, you! Lu Feng was seated to Wei Xiaos left. He immediately turned to act coquettish, Captain, Brother Vegetable is being mean to me! Lu Feng: Hes right. Wei Xiao: Eh?! Bai Cai wanted to change seats. It would be best if he was 800 meters away from them! The disgruntled Gary had the right to choose a team for his teams training match, but he wasnt happy at all. He was actually even angrier! L&P chose the 4th place team. Gary started to bombard the other side like crazy right from the start. His rhythm was fast enough to fly up into the sky, smashing the other side until their heads were bleeding. Wei Xiaos hands felt hot just watching it. He cursed, Damn that Zhou Xingfei! If it hadnt been for that scum, he wouldve been able to go up against Gary today. Looking at Old Gs current state it was a pity hed missed out. It had only been a short time, but when Bai Cai heard the name Zhou Xingfei, he was already extremely calm and even felt unusual pity and compassion for him. He couldve chosen to be anything, yet he chose to be a scum man. Just wait for his punishment to arrive! L&Ps opening match stirred up the audience. They won without any suspense and pushed their own bonus pool to a new high. One point was 1000 yuan. L&Ps bonus pool was now more than 300,000 yuan! The points competition had finally started to snowball. If they continued on according to this schedule, the bonus pool on the last day would be extremely attractive! The second game was Pro. The one who stepped up onto the stage first was their transparent, unnoticed junglerCChe was quite a handsome young man, but he was often overlooked because of his quiet personality. Kim Sung-hyuns expression was ugly, looking neither left or right as he acted like the remote flower of Kaolin that he was known for. The livestream rooms scrolling comments were full of screams. This face was very much to everyones tastes, and God Kims fans were spread out all over the world. Pro chose to play against 3U, whod tried their best and gotten 5th place. 3U had been very stable during this training period. Although theyd encountered some bad luck during the free matching and met with several difficult opponents, their score was still quite considerable, and theyd climbed up to 4th place. Despite not being able to take the initiative and pick an opponent to play against, there was still a great chance that theyd be chosen. Like right now, theyd obtained the chance to play against Pro. Wei Xiao was jealous again, Asleeps really good. Lu Feng whispered something to him in a low voice. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up, Really. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao: Tonight Lu Feng: Once. Wei Xiaos eyes curved into happy crescent moons, Okay, okay, okay, once is once. Captain, youre really great. Bai Cai, who was to the side, Although he knew that they were definitely talking about solo, his brain inexplicably felt like it had gone to the gutter! He wanted to switch seats ahhhhhh, it would be best if he could be seated outside the hotel! Pros game against 3U was very fun to watch. At first, it could be seen that Pro wasnt taking it seriously. After all, last years 3U had made a round trip back home during the global championships, and they didnt even have a chance to fight against the stronger teams. Although 3U had played well against FTW yesterday, Asleep had been suppressed by Close the whole time and hadnt been able to play well. It was very easy for them to overlook this sleepy new star. But as soon as they entered the game, Kim Sung-hyun felt a sense of familiarity. When Asleeps thief snuck over, Kim Sung-hyun was in a trance and had the illusion that hed been plotted against by Wei Xiao. What was going on with the junglers from the China competition zone? Had they all come together to become a pack of mad dogs this year?! Asleeps craziness wasnt any weaker than Wei Xiaos. With Cong Yi escorting him, he was even able to touch Kim Sung-hyun despite the latter being under Li Herans careful protection. Kim Sung-hyun hadnt used a flashy marksman like the storm hunter this time. Hed taken the launcher who was extremely powerful in the later stages. It had a long attack range, but it was very immobile. If there were any errors with positioning, it was practically the same as handing his head over for a kill. The moment that Asleep was able to touch him, God Kims heart quivered. The berserker thiefs scythe carved away over half of his health. If it hadnt been for Li Herans resurrection totem, Kim Sung-hyun would have fallen! Pro, who originally hadnt been playing very seriously, became serious due to 3Us fierce momentum. Beneath the stage, Chen Feng spoke to the three little ones, 3U will be a strong opponent for us in the domestic competition this year. Although theyd won against 3U only yesterday, 3Us captain Asleep had too much room for growth. Last year, theyd already emerged as a strong team. This year, they were even more mature. Asleep had been pressured to death by Lu Feng yesterday and hadnt been able to lead the rhythm for the team, which was why FTW had won. However, as soon as Lu Feng wasnt there, the number of junglers who could pressure Asleep across all of China could be counted on the fingers of one hand. There was no doubting Wei Xiaos personal strength. He could beat Asleep in solo games. But when it came to experience with 5v5 games, Wei Xiao was a little short. It was really difficult to say who would win or lose if it came to a game between the two of them. Chen Feng continued, 3Us current line-up really limits Pro. Not only were Asleeps operations good, his mind was also unusually clear. It could be seen from this match that they were very ambitious. This was definitely a line-up that theyd come up with after studying Pro thoroughly. It was a little bit similar to L&P. They were both teams who took their junglers as their core, and even if Asleep wasnt as good as Gary, he wasnt far behind. Coupled with Cong Yis support, it actually enhanced Asleeps strength. Chen Feng specifically pointed it out, Do you see? This is a good support players ability. A good support was like the lubrication for a team. They could make up for their teammates deficiencies and allow them to play out 200% of their ability. Bai Cai was watching very seriously. Cong Yis group control and counterattack was something he still remembered. It was a very wonderful game, even though 3U lost in the end. The Kim Sung-hyun who was able to develop properly was too strong. Asleep and 3Us top-laner hadnt been able to get close to him at all in the later stages. If they were unable to take down the other sides ADC, then there was no way to win a group fight. The settlement interface popped up. Kim Sung-hyun accounted for 46% of all the damage dealt, and it was a number that made everyone suck in a breath. It was really incredible. The worlds number one marksman had a well-deserved reputation. Everyone around them were talking about Kim Sung-hyun. They were all shocked by his strength. Only Lu Feng said something else, Pay attention to Pros jungler. Chen Feng raised his eyebrows and marked something down on his notebook. Tang Chen said, This jungler was silent and unnoticed, but he managed to steadily hold back Asleep. 3U had clearly taken a line-up that gave them an advantage against Pro and played very well, pressuring Kim Sung-hyun at the start of the game. However, once the game entered the middle stages, the situation had begun to steadily grow one-sided. Many people felt that it was because Kim Sung-hyun had started to take part in the group fights, allowing Pros advantage to gradually increase. However, if they took a closer look, they would discover that there was something about Pros jungler. His farm was low, his rhythm was slow, and he had a low sense of existence, but his play was stable. It was so stable that it shocked peoples hearts and made their flesh feel numb. Wei Xiao sucked in a light breath, It really is a powerful team. Pro wasnt labelled as a global powerhouse based on Kim Sung-hyuns strength alone. To be able to walk up onto that high up stage, all five people in Pro had to be very strong! In a 5v5 competition, a single person was unable to get very far on their own. It was finally FTWs turn. Wei Xiao was clearly itching for a fight as he said, Lets go! Abuse those scum! Little Nings fighting spirit was charged full, Okay! Bai Cai always felt that something wasnt right. When they arrived up onto the stage, he finally realized: Oh, how come their temperament made them seem more villainous than that Garbage Zhou?! There were two teams waiting to be called up beneath the stage. One of them was naturally OD. Theyd already done their preparations and were ready to go up and make some pocket money. Who was the other team? Of course it was the 6th team in the rankings. Todays 6th place was the Black Knights from the European competition zone. When they saw that FTW had come in 3rd, theyd held an emergency meeting. Black Knights jungler: FTWs top-laner Quiet is a beast! Hed bumped into him while single queueing and had been torn to pieces alive! The coach looked at the top-laner, Try to resist the pressure. Its enough to be able to hold him in place. Black Knights jungler became even more desperate, Im f*cking going up against Close. The coach comforted him again, Dont panic, just hold on! It was a five person team. Two of them could only hold on, and the rest of them This was the Black Knights strategy, We just need to find an opening in the mid-lane and bottom lane, and well be able to win the game! The Black Knights: Yes! Theyd formed such a careful plan and had made such a careful decision. The five people from Black Knights were full of fighting spirit. They really wanted to see what was so good about this team, other than the great demon king, that made them so coveted by L&P and Pro! The Black Knights, whod done their mental preparations and were just waiting to be called up to the stage, ??? The host was also slightly surprised, OD? Had FTW submitted the wrong list?! In the scoreboard, OD was ranked 10th. They were a team with negative points. Although winning against a negative point team wouldnt cause them to lose points, it also wouldnt add anything to their score. What was the point in playing against them? Not only was the host confused, the knights from the Black Knights team were also roaring: Why not choose us!? What was up with this FTW? How come they didnt play according to common sense?! The audience that was watching the live broadcast were also wondering about this. Whats this situation? What kind of shady transaction is there between FTW and OD? Why are they making an appointment? Is OD very strong? With all due respect, they arent even in the global top eight, right? Is FTW scared of losing? Oh yeah, if they go for a weak team, theyll be able to keep their points as long as they dont lose. But, how can they guarantee that theyll stay in the top three? They werent in the top three yesterday. When they accumulate a larger bonus pool, wont it be even more miserable for them when they lose? Dont get it Inexplicable Chapter 57.2: FTWs jungler Quiets explosive first appearance! The only people who knew the truth were in the OD team. Zhou Xingfeis other skills were unknown, but his mouth was really slick. Otherwise, he wouldnt have been able to coax the 18 year old Brother Cai until he was going around in circles. The OD team was actually quite normal. In this world, there were only a few outstanding people, and basically everyone else was just normal. When Zhou Xingfei had gone back to the team, hed exaggerated and embellished on the situation and even managed to fool ODs coach. Thats too arrogant! Do they really think that their win is guaranteed? Zhou didnt do anything wrong. Why are they insisting that he should apologize? Yeah, is signing a contract something to play around with? That support player from FTW wasnt careful, yet he still goes around blaming others? Zhou Xingfei sighed, Itll be good to make a clean break, too. After winning, the accounts between the two of us will be cleared. His teammates: You cant let him off so easily, they have to pay a price! Zhou Xingfei: Whats more, none of it is written in black and white. Isnt two million something he just said as a joke? If he had a choice, he really didnt want to fight. The mid-laner whod been with Zhou Xingfei when he went up against Wei Xiao said, What do you mean, a joke? We all heard him. If he plans to renege, then Ill expose him on the spot. Zhou Xingfei didnt believe that Wei Xiao would take out two million. He simply pushed the boat along and said, If he doesnt go back on his words, then I dont want a single cent of this money. Ill give all of it to the team. His teammates eyes lit up, and they were much more motivated. Zhou Xingfei kept feeling uneasy about this. He really didnt want to lose. However, since he had to fight, then he should try to increase his chances of winning. ODs current strategy was to wait and see. Over these two days of free matching, OD had always had a negative score. It wasnt that they were unable to grab points, nor was it because they were unlucky and had met difficult opponents. It was that they simply didnt want to gain points. Those who had high scores were like chickens waiting for slaughter. They were also out in the open and were observed and researched by various other teams. Those who were really aiming for the bonus pool wouldnt start to make their move now. Waiting for the right opportunity was the right way to do it. They didnt understand what L&P and Pro were so crazy about. Did they really think that they wouldnt lose? Theyd accumulated so many points, and it was like they were just packing themselves up as a gift for someone else. Zhou Xingfeng used the short amount of time over the afternoon to do a good job of emotionally motivating the OD team. This was a training match where they could make a steady profit. Regardless of whether it was points or pocket money, they wouldnt make a loss with this deal at all. He also worked hard to whitewash himself so that the coaching team wouldnt think that he was troublesome. He also set it up so that his teammates would think that he was generous. With one fell swoop, Zhou Xingfei had played his cards very well. Regardless of the reason, since FTW had chosen OD, OD had to agree and fight. The points competition match started, and both sides entered the BP segment. OD wanted to win, so theyd definitely done their homework. They started to target Close like crazy, allocating all six ban spots to the jungler position. Chen Feng frowned, Today No matter how popular the points competitions were, they still werent proper games, and there was no need to submit a list with each players position. So, for this match, either Lu Feng or Wei Xiao could play jungler. Based on Chen Fengs understanding of Wei Xiao, the shadow thief, berserker thief, hidden thief, sword warlock theyd all been banned. This was targeting Close, but it had also shackled Wei Xiao. If Wei Xiao played jungler, this would be his first appearance in that position. If he messed up because he was targeted like this, then what? Close: Its fine, let him play jungler. Wei Xiao wasnt scared at all, Help me take the immortal thief. Chen Feng frowned. Closes lips curved, Then Ill use the flying warrior. Coach Chen: Fine. You guys are really playing recklessly! The Bai Cai who never offered up an opinion during BP spoke up, Can you help me get the medicine warlock first? OD had allocated all the ban positions to Close. This resulted in many talents that were strong in the current version of the game being released. For example, the medicine warlock that had been very popular recently. It was a very overbearing support talent spec. Warlocks were a very versatile profession. The talent specs included mage types, assassin types, support types, and even core damage dealers. The medicine warlock was a support type talent spec. It could be used as a functional support, or an explosive healer. Chen Feng asked him, Youre using it? Bai Cai: Yes. Chen Feng: Okay. Ning Zhehan immediately said, Then Ill take the ice mage! The frost mage had more control skills and was very useful in providing group fight control that the medicine warlock was lacking in. Chen Feng nodded, then asked Yue Wenle, The line-up is a little squishy. Will you take the storm hunter? Yue Wenle: Okay. After FTW finished selecting their line-up, OD breathed a sigh of relief. Theyre crazy. The immortal thief and flying warrior is already squishy on top of squishy. They even added a medicine warlock? FTWs support doesnt really use the medicine warlock, right? The difference in this hero is like heaven and earth if its not played well. The ice mage can supplement some control ability, but its just that movement speed. Its probably going to die before it plays out any effect. Zhou, dont worry. Our win is guaranteed for this match. Zhou Xingfei was actually a little flustered. Bai Cai rarely used the medicine warlock, but Zhou Xingfei knew that Bai Cai could actually use it. The medicine warlock was a very strange support talent. In Glory right now, the one who could use it the most brilliantly was Y1s Yan Jiang. The medicine warlock didnt have any control skills and wasnt suited for starting group fights, but it had a characteristic that none of the other support talents hadCCit had high DPS. The medicine warlock was a hero that had two forms. After switching, it was equivalent to having eight skills. If the player could use it properly, the medicine warlock could heal his teammates to heaven during a group fight while simultaneously dealing excessive damage to his opponents. In last years global finals, Yan Jiangs medicine warlock had cut off L&Ps championship dream in the decisive game. It was also because of that match that the medicine warlock had become such a popular talent. The audience that was watching the live broadcast were also discussing amongst themselves. Has God Bai used the medicine warlock before? This vegetable fan wants to say yes. How was it, was it amazing? How should I say this, he obtained 22 kills in an international server game. Holy shit, thats strong! Emmm, it was the professor pampering the vegetable. Someone who didnt know the situation asked, Who is the professor? FTWs Quiet. In the past, his game ID was professor. Quiet pampered Bai Cai? A good top-laner is a jungler who spoils his own support, get it? Then, is Bai Cais medicine warlock strong or not? I dont know They really didnt know, because in the games where Bai Cai used the medicine warlock in the livestream, the professor had always been playing with him: This amazingly strong jungler would forcibly start the fights and leave the opponents who were at critical health for Bai Cai to kill. 22 kills was something that also carried a sense of irony. It was just unknown who exactly it was making fun of After the line-up was locked in, the livestream audience went crazy. Wait a minute! Whats going on with FTW! Holy shit, Quiet is playing the immortal thief? Could it be that the flying warrior is going to be the jungler? How could that be? The immortal thief took the jungler skill! Is it that Quiet forgot to switch heroes with Close? Even if theyre a newcomer, it shouldnt be to the point where they make such low-level mistakes! Finally, someone spoke out the truth that the fans didnt even dare to think, Could it be that FTWs jungler has been changed? A pebble stirred up a thousand waves. The scrolling comments instantly exploded. Impossible! Definitely impossible! Dont spread misinformation. Even if FTW is done for, Close will still be playing jungler. Countless scrolling comments almost covered up the livestream room completely, making it so that the match couldnt be seen clearly. The rational fans spoke, Do you have to be so crazy about this? Closes jungler is toxic. Isnt this common knowledge in Glory? If hes really switched lanes, then I can stop being a hater and become a fan again. Stop kicking up a ruckus. Cant you just watch the game. Indeed, the match had already started. FTWs side: Flying warrior, immortal thief, ice mage, medicine warlock, storm hunter. ODs side: Blood warrior, power thief, fire mage, giant shaman, gold hunter. From a line-up perspective, ODs likelihood of winning was higher. The blood warrior had an advantage over the flying warrior. The power thief could stabilize ODs overall situation. The fire mages passive ability gave it a random chance to escape control skills, and it was very suited for going up against the ice mage that was good at control. The giant shaman was a strong, tanky support. With it blocking the way in front, FTW would be at their wits end. Although the gold hunter couldnt beat the storm hunter at the start, its DPS would explode in the later stages, and a single arrow would be enough to take down a squishy creep. Just when everyone had decided that FTW was at a disadvantage and would choose to develop steadily in the early stages, the immortal thief, flying warrior, and medicine warlock all rushed into ODs top lane jungle area right at the start of the match. Commentator A: Are they going to take the other sides jungle? Commentator B: It seems possible. ODs power thief is in the bottom lane jungle area, and the top jungle is completely empty. Commentator A wasnt optimistic, If a group fight starts, FTWs side is going to suffer. The flying warrior and immortal thief were very flexible, but they were very squishy in the early stages. The medicine warlock didnt have its double form until level six and could only be considered as half a hero before then. If these two and a half people were caught by OD, they would collapse! Commentator A: Their DPS is too high! Indeed. Wei Xiao and Lu Feng had taken Bai Cai and dared to go into their opponents jungle, but it wasnt a brainless move. Bai Cais medicine warlock had started in DPS mode at the start of the game. He had ample magic damage from its first skill. The flying warrior and immortal thief might be squishy, but their DPS was high enough to make them ADs. Coupled with the medicine warlocks magic damage and physical damage, as well as its passive that allowed the damage to stack, these three people swept through the jungle extremely quickly. It was as though theyd practically swept through half the jungle area in the blink of an eye. By the time OD reacted, the three of them were long gone. With its high damage and high mobility, Wei Xiaos immortal thief had taken three buffs at the start of the game. While Zhou Xingfei was still only at level 5, hed already reached level 6. A level 6 immortal thief that now had an ultimate move underwent a qualitative change. What made people more surprised was that the medicine warlock was almost at level 5 as well! Wei Xiao stared at the screen, Old Bai, lets go. Bai Cai: Mm. Zhou Xingfei was ODs jungler position. Hed lost half of his jungle at the start of the game and his development was behind. Fortunately, the power thief was more functionality-based than farm-based. Otherwise, based on the start of this game, OD wouldve already lost half the game. Zhou Xingfei: Shaman, come with me. The enemy junglers already at level 6! ODs support: Will the immortal thief dare to find the power thief for a fight in the early stages? Even if it had an ultimate move, it was still difficult for the immortal thief to take away the power thiefs life with a set of skills. Zhou Xingfei still felt panicked, Come quickly! Unfortunately, it was a little too late. The immortal thiefs second skill burst out accurately into his face. One set of combos instantly landed a pile of damage, and the immortal thief that was standing in mid-air caught Zhou Xingfei completely off-guard. Zhou Xingfei: F*ck! Fortunately, the power thief was quite tanky and was able to hold on. His own support player ran over quickly, and the holy priests heal landed on his body, helping him recover a small portion of his health. ODs support: The immortal thief has no skills left, attack! A medicine warlock who wasnt yet level 6 was nothing but trash and wasnt even worth mentioning. Zhou Xingfei also wanted to take down Wei Xiao System announcement: Red sides FTW.Close killed an ancient creature! Zhou Xingfeis heart crackled. ODs support yelled, Retreat! The medicine warlock reached level 6! Because Close, who was far away in the top lane, had killed the ancient creature, the entire team had gotten an experience and farm bonus. The medicine warlock that had originally still been level 5 suddenly levelled up, and the Bai Cai who now had an ultimate move tossed out an entire set of damage skills. The Zhou Xingfei who was only at half health immediately toppled over and died. ODs support was stunned for a moment, but his reactions were quick, and he turned to run. Wei Xiao chuckled, Where are you running off to. Bai Cai instantly switched forms. He had previously just harvested a kill but was now a powerful healer. He healed and gave shields, piling it all up onto the immortal thiefs body as though it didnt cost anything. The Wei Xiao who was flashing with silver light used three linked displacement moves and pulled ODs support life into his pocket. Commentator A was shocked, This cooperation Commentator B: How strong! The scrolling comments were also shocked, These two are awesome! Is Bai Cai that amazing?! Isnt he a notoriously unimpressive player? Why is it that theyve only changed a jungler, yet it feels like the support has also been changed? You guys, take a look at the top lane. Begging you to look at FTWs top lane! Our great demon king is too strong! In this openingCCBai Cai took down first blood, and Wei Xiao took down a kill. However, the hero behind the scenes was Close. When FTW entered ODs jungle, Close had helped Wei Xiao deal damage, but he hadnt done any farming. Hed timed it accurately and returned to the top lane without losing a single soldier. Hed even pressured ODs blood warrior until he had to retreat beneath his tower. While Wei Xiao and Bai Cai went to kill Zhou Xingfei, Close had made use of his advantage in the top lane to head over and take down the ancient creature. Closes timing was too fierce. When he killed the ancient creature, hed sent Bai Cai to level 6. This was why the medicine warlock had been able to use both forms, and also the reason why FTW had been able to score two kills! The key point of this entire chain reaction was Close, who hadnt even appeared in the group fight! The fans in the scrolling comments howled like they had voices, It turns out that the great demon king is the great demon king no matter where he is! Yuan Ze, whod been off-stage, had originally been leaning lazily against his chair. At this moment, he couldnt help but sit up straight. The black ear stud flashed in the lights, and his eyes were very deep. Gary was shocked, Closes control over the arena Yuan Zes lips curved, and his tone was meaningful, This is the liberation of a wild beast. Sure enough, they really werent meant to be teammates. They were opponents. Chapter 58: A support player could also tear into the enemys throat! The fans whod previously collapsed because Close wasnt playing jungler all came back to life on the spot and transformed into shrieking chickens. Aaaahhhh! The great demon king is so handsome! This invincible control, the great demon king is actually so well suited for the top lane! The flying warrior is so handsome, so handsome! Elegant, free, and easy, yet also enigmatic. Thats our Close! FTWs operations department were all staring at the scrolling comments and Weibo reviews. Sure enough, Lu Feng had spoken correctly As long as he was strong enough, the fans would be able to accept it. Using this kind of start to announce a change in direction was smart. Unlike all the onlookers, Chen Feng, who was beneath the stage, had been constantly watching the match without looking away for a second. The coach was the sixth person in a team. He didnt join the battlefield, but he was still an important part of the team. Not only did he have to deploy the right heroes and make good arrangements during the BP segment, his heart was also tied to the five people in the team while they competed on the stage. Nobody knew them better than Chen Feng did, and nobody understood this team better than Chen Feng did. CCIt was new and raw. Even if they were full of vigor and passion, they were still hovering anxiously on the edge of a cliff. Who would dare to think that this was the first competition theyd played together after switching lanes? They hadnt trained for it, and they hadnt even queued for ranked games together as a team. But theyd gone up to engage in a major match anyway. And it was a game where they were fighting for their teammates honor! Thanks to Little Lunatic Weis ability to incite the team, the entire team didnt seem to feel any pressure at all, and everyone was putting in their best efforts to win. But what if the battle situation led to their defeat? The pressure that had been covered up by their passion would all then well up to the surface. Being afraid to lose was the most deadly mindset. In this game, FTW was shouldering Bai Cais past, the two million yuan promise, and also carrying the burden of having the first time the team switched positions broadcast across the world! Would their mentality remain stable after they realized this?! Chen Feng was the sixth member of the team, yet also a bystander. He could see this hidden danger beneath the passion. They couldnt lose. They could only win. That was pressure as big as the sky! Chen Feng didnt dare to mention any of these things. He didnt even dare to bring it up with Lu Feng. Lu Feng was FTWs head, but he was also one of their starters. Discussing this with him before the match would have only affected his mentality. No matter how determined a person was, they would still be affected by emotions. Even if it was an effect as light as the flap of a butterflys wings, the consequences were still immeasurable. The arrow was already nocked on the string. Chen Feng couldnt say any of this and could only let them carry this kind of heated passion onto the battlefield. But, he was worried. He was afraid that once OD had gained the advantage, the FTW that had calmed down from their initial frenzy would start to grow worriedCC If they lost, what would happen to Bai Cai? If they lost, what would happen to Wei Xiao, whod put down two million? If they lost, what would the fans, who had a massive amount of opinions about switching positions, do? Once they started thinking about this, could they still manage to play steadily?! Chen Feng was so nervous that he was biting his thumbnails, and even sitting still was difficult. Tang Chen, who was sitting next to him, saw this and laughed at him, What are you scared of? They can do it. Chen Feng ignored him: He really envied this big fool who could laugh during any kind of situation! FTWs rhythm flowed smoothly in the early stages. Once Wei Xiao obtained the advantage, he would pursue vigorously and attack fiercely. The immortal thief and medicine warlocks cooperation was on point. The immortal thief was a mid-stage hero. After its farming snowballed, and it became powerful ahead of time, it would be able to force the power thief into seclusion. Not to mention that there was a medicine warlock there to supplement damage and give heals. It was really enough to frustrate ODs shaman to death. It couldnt protect the power thief, yet if it didnt even try, then the power thiefs health would collapse directly. Seeing how ODs situation continued to deteriorate, Zhou Xingfei said fiercely, Support, go follow the bottom lane! They couldnt lose; he definitely couldnt lose to a Chinese team that was already on its way downhill! OD hadnt made it into the top eight of the global competition last year, but it was still a very good team, much better than the FTW that had done a round trip back home. They could be considered a seed team for the European competition zone and werent a weak team that could be crushed so casually. FTWs actions at the start of the game had taken them by surprise, and Wei Xiao, Lu Feng, and Bai Cais invasion of their jungle area had caused them to lose their rhythm. After that, Zhou Xingfei had been targeted like crazy, causing their momentum to continue to deteriorate. However, in the professional arena, there were countless reversals. So what if they had a big early stage advantage? Any professional player who could go up and play in the arena all had the belief that they could eventually launch a desperate counterattack! The OD team quickly calmed down. The suggestions that Zhou Xingfei gave were also very reliable. His power thief was already useless, and having the support position follow him was no longer meaningful. Since Wei Xiao and Bai Cai were targeting him, then let them continue doing so! ODs top lane couldnt suppress Close, but there were opportunities to be found in the mid-lane and bottom lane. ODs captain said, Dont be scared. FTWs mid-lane is a newcomer, hes a breakthrough point! ODs mid-laner: Understood. Chen Feng, who was beneath the stage, could already see the signs, ODs come back to their senses. His voice had just fallen when a fight broke out in the middle lane. Ning Zhehans ice mage was a control type mage. It was slightly weaker when it came to damage, but as long as its prejudgment was accurate enough, it could play out extremely effectively. Zhou Xingfei went to support the mid-lane. Ning Zhehan accurately placed a skill on the ground and was actually able to freeze ODs fire mage and Zhou Xingfei at the same time. He was delighted and sent a set of damage skills over, wanting to kill the two of them. Unfortunately, it was a trap. Zhou Xingfei was frozen, but the fire mage was able to break his control skill with his passive ability. He was only frozen for a moment, and then he sent a set of high burst damage skills right at Ning Zhehans body. Ning Zhehan reacted very quickly. He knew that there was a chance that the fire mage would break out of his control, so his positioning was relatively far back. However, hed never thought that the fire mage would be so daring and use flash to get right up to his face before attacking him with all his skills. Mages were all squishy. Ning Zhehan couldnt hold up at all and died on the spot! The screen would darken after a hero died. Ning Zhehan was stunned for a moment, and his hands trembled. How strong This fire mage They both played the mid-lane position. Ning Zhehan was absolutely certain that he couldnt do the same thing. Operating a fire mage wasnt difficult, but there was a delay before the skills landed. It was very difficult to use a set of skills to land such a precise strike Because Ning Zhehan had died, one of the middle lane towers fell. FTWs instantly lost half of the advantage theyd gained from the first half of the game. Off-stage, Chen Feng cursed quietly, F*ck! Whatever they were afraid of would happen. Those bastards from OD had indeed started to target Ning Zhehan. Ning Zhehans heart was chilled. After losing the mid-lane tower, FTWs jungle area was no longer protected. It was an extremely serious mistake. It was because of him Wei Xiaos voice transmitted over from the headset, Little Ning, your prejudgement is pretty good. Ning Zhehan was stunned. Wei Xiao had already cleared out his own jungle area and didnt give OD any opportunity to invade. He continued, You froze two of them in one go, amazing! Wait for me to come support you! Although Ning Zhehan had been killed by ODs fire mage, he had indeed managed to control two people Ning Zhehans plummeting emotions instantly lifted back up, Yeah! Wei Xiao crouched in the mid-lane grass patch and egged Ning Zhehan on, Go and tempt him. Ning Zhehans movements were cautious and timid without the towers protection behind him. Wei Xiao evaluated, Not bad, not bad, your pitiful attitude really makes it look like youre in need of a beating. Ning Zhehan: Bai Cai couldnt help but scold him, You damn Wei Xiao: Theyre here! His movements were even faster than his own words, and he launched himself at ODs fire mages face almost instantaneously. The fire mage was startled, but his hand moved extremely quickly as he tossed his control skill onto Wei Xiaos body. Wei Xiao: Ice mage! Ning Zhehan discovered that his hands acted faster than his brain. Hed already frozen the fire mage in place very precisely. The fire mages passive ability to remove control effects was random and couldnt be triggered every time. So The ice mages ultimate move sent a long blue dragon charging over. It drilled out a huge hole in the fire mages small body. The system announced, the ice mage killed the fire mage! Wei Xiao: Nice! There were goosebumps all over Ning Zhehans arms from excitement, and his fighting spirit soared once again, Yeah! What was there to be scared of? So what if the fire mage was better? He had frozen him in place, and he had killed him! His skills were very accurate too! Off-stage, Chen Feng froze for a moment. Tang Chen laughed loudly, I told you you were worrying for nothing. Mother Hen Chen still couldnt relax, Dont be happy so soon. ODs marksman has finished developing. This was the real hidden danger. Regardless of how FTW was currently doing, there were inherent disadvantages to FTWs line-up. The flying warriors damage wouldnt be able to keep up in the later stages. Fortunately, ODs top-laner had been hammered into uselessness a long time ago. The immortal thief and medicine warlocks damage was significant, but after ODs giant shaman built up its tankiness, they wouldnt be able to touch ODs gold hunter. Yue Wenles storm hunter was played well, but he hadnt been able to put pressure on the gold hunter in the early stages and could now only wait for death in the later stages. FTWs line-up tended towards the early stages, while OD had a late stage line-up. This European seed team had sacrificed their teams toolman power thief and turned their bottom lane gold hunter into their core. 30 minutes into the game, FTW fans began to get nervous. OD began to stick together as a team, and it was clear that FTW couldnt fight group battles. The storm hunters DPS wasnt high enough, while OD would be able to deal explosive damage as long as they were able to circle around and protect their daddy gold hunter! There were several skirmishes between both sides, which all ended in FTWs retreat. Close: Ambush. When faced with this kind of situation, they had to calm down and find an opportunity to target the gold hunter on his own, killing him in one go. Only then would they be able to win a group fight! And at this time, as long as they were able to win a group fight, they would have won the game. Wei Xiao said, The captain and I will ambush the gold hunter. Old Bai, you go with Old Yue. There was nothing wrong with this arrangement. The flying warrior and immortal thief were extremely mobile. As long as the two of them were able to ambush the gold hunter and burst him down, FTW would be able to win the game! But OD had clearly seen through their intentions. They protected the gold hunter like crazy, using the giant shamans huge body to protect the gold hunter completely. They didnt give the other side even the tiniest opportunity to attack. With such heavy protection, it was very difficult for the flying warrior and the immortal thief to find any opportunities for an ambush. If they rushed in, they would die. If the game continued to drag on like this, FTW would have no chance of winning. Right now, it was just the gold hunter whod finished developing. Once the farm rate sped up even further, FTW wouldnt be able to beat OD at all. The scrolling comments started to grow negative again, Can this Quiet do it or not? If my Close was the one playing the immortal thief, he wouldve killed the gold hunter a long time ago! Its just a gold hunter. Yet a jungler whod developed so well isnt able to cut him down? If you cant kill the c-position, whats the point in being a jungler. Like I said, theres a problem with FTWs line-up. Whats the point in picking the medicine warlock? Isnt this just exposing a bunch of weaknesses? So what if theyre fierce in the early stages? The medicine warlock is too squishy and cant even control anyone. I really want to see how they plan to deal with the gold hunter. It had to be said, the audience had indeed pointed out FTWs current dilemma. What should they do Wei Xiao was just about to speak up when Bai Cai suddenly said, Ill go. Wei Xiao froze. Close asked, Can you do it. Bai Cai: Yes. Wei Xiao woke up, Are you going to f*cking Bai Cai: The rest is up to you guys. He finished speaking, and the medicine warlock charged in. The commentators were surprised, This Commentator B raised his voice subconsciously, Its God Yans heartbeat style play! Commentator A: Can he do it? Commentator B: Whether or not he can do it will depend on how White plays his medicine warlock! Yan Jiang was an expert with the medicine warlock, and hed played a wonderful scene in last years world finals. At the time, Y1s predicament had been similar to FTWs. L&Ps late stage line-up had started fighting back, and their double c-position damage was strong enough to explode. Y1s line-up that was relatively squishier was unable to find an opportunity to fight back. Later, it was Yan Jiangs Medicine warlock, a support type hero, whod pierced through L&Ps nest! The medicine warlock had two forms, and there was a cooldown time when they switched. However, as long as the skills and basic attacks were linked together well, it could lessen or completely clear the cooldown time. That meant that as long as a players hand speed could keep up, they could switch constantly between the two forms, and eight skills could be released continuously as long as they didnt run out of energy. What did that mean? It meant that the medicine warlock could heal and deal damage frantically at the same time. Although their energy bar would eventually empty out, this period of time was enough for them to slaughter out a bloody path! The flying warrior and immortal thief couldnt hold on, but the medicine warlock could give it a try! Why was it called the heartbeat style? Because it really made ones heart pound! Rushing at the enemy meant that they would take a face full of damage. The medicine warlock was quite squishy, and its health bar could drop to the bottom at any time. However, because it was charging in on its own, all of the healing and health recovering skills could be piled up on its own body and didnt have to be shared with other teammates, so the health bar would plummet, then rise back up again. This kind of thrilling ups and downs was enough to make ones heart explode! What made it more demanding was that they had to switch to their damage dealing form while healing in order to deal damage. In order to prevent being controlled, the medicine warlock also had to seize the right timing to use the skill that removed control states! The requirement for hand speed Not to mention a support player, even a core player who had to execute amazing maneuvers on a regular basis would have to think twice about whether or not they could do it. However, in the 2021 global finals, Yan Jiangs medicine warlock had used this wave of maneuvering and completely broken any hope L&P had of turning the tables! What professional player didnt dream of turning the tables? So what if they were a support player. A support player could also tear into the enemys throat! Bai Cais eyes were serious, and his fingers flew quickly across the keyboard. This hand speed that had been trained up by following Little Lunatic Wei around played out effectively at this time: his health dropped, and his skills caught up to heal him; OD forcibly controlled him, and he opened up his immunity skill just in time, finally making it close to the gold hunter! This was already the third time hed switched forms. The medicine warlock that had switched from light to dark now wrapped a set of skills around the gold hunter like a chain. In the next moment, black fog burst out. It was the medicine warlocks ultimate move, calledCCheavens punishment. The black blade that fell down from the sky pierced ODs sparkling, golden marksman! Almost at exactly the same moment when the gold hunter fell, Bai Cai also died. However Hed succeeded! Hed killed the opponents marksman with a support hero. Hed really made a killing with this move! Wei Xiao could be heard in his headset, Attack! Fellow brothers, step on Old Bais corpse and charge! Bai Cai, whose heartbeat had sped up, Motherf*cker! The gold hunter fell, and OD was routed. Wei Xiaos immortal thief led the ice mage and storm hunter to attack from the front. Close circled around the back and killed ODs fire mage. All that was left was a broken power thief and the half useless blood warrior, who both had expressions full of despair. It didnt matter how tanky the giant shaman was. When faced with this kind of siege, it could only squeal and topple to the ground in regret! FTWs aura was magnificent and powerful. The four of them rushed all the way to ODs base and shattered their resurrection crystal. Victory! FTW won! And theyd won in such a wonderful way! The fans in the livestream were all ecstatic, Holy shit, Bai Cais medicine warlock Although its a distance away from God Yans medicine warlock, he still did it! Is this the Brother Vegetable that I know? Amazing, amazing, FTW really stood out today! Mother Hen Chens breath had caught in his throat. Goddam, the heartbeat play. This was like the f*cking heart attack play! Watching it could give people a heart attack! After setting down the headset, Wei Xiao spoke to Bai Cai, Pretty good, Brother Bai. Bai Cai forced himself to calm down, Not bad, right. Wei Xiao turned his head towards Lu Feng and reported, Captain, Brother Cai is trying to act cool! The corner of Lu Fengs lips rose up slightly, Its fine, the hotel has a lightning rod. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle burst out in impolite laughter. Those who put on a cool act would be struck by lightning, but there was a lightning rod, so it was okay. Amazing. Bai Cai: ??? Captain, dont cooperate with this little beast! Compared with FTWs euphoria, OD was in a low mood. It was especially the case for Zhou Xingfei whose expression was extremely ugly. Wei Xiao put on his team jacket and headed towards the stage in the middle. The host was about to hold a routine interview, but nobody had expected that Zhou Xingfei wouldnt even look back as he headed straight off-stage. Wei Xiao raised his voice, Zhou Xingfei, wheres the apology. He spoke in a lazy tone, but his voice spread out throughout the room. The players whod been immersed in the game had all come back to their senses. Not only those in the hall, but those who were outside watching on the live broadcast all perked up their ears. Apology? What was going on! Zhou Xingfei sneered and didnt turn back as he walked away. What kind of apology did he owe? Hed just said those words casually. Who wanted to apologize to Bai Cai. Wei Xiao had expected that he would cheat a long time ago. So he pressed a button in his pocket, and a recording played out throughout the hallCC If you lose, you have to apologize to White for tricking him into terminating his contract. Fine! The fine that Zhou Xingfei had tossed down loudly stirred up an uproar across the entire network. Chapter 59: Reality and despicable means would cool such young hot-bloodedness The recording had captured everything perfectly, and the audience could hear it clearly over the live broadcast. Tricking Bai Cai into breaking his contract? Zhou Xingfei had cheated Bai Cai? What was going on? Quite a few of Brother Cais fans had come to the live broadcast studio. Someone immediately called out, Holy shit, is that really the case? Whats this? God Bai was tricked back then? Brother Vegetable was really very miserable! Back then, he broke off the contract with Boro and was ridiculed all over Weibo. They all said that he was too rich and didnt even take a million yuan seriously. A million? Brother Cai wasnt famous yet when he was in Boro, right? An old fan: Very poor and thrifty. He would even thank people over and over again for support gifts that are only worth 50 yuan. Back then, I was really puzzled and curious about how Brother Cai had the courage to break his contract. But, how did Zhou Xingfei trick him? I know! Zhou Xingfei was the rookie king that year. He relied on Brother Cai, who was already a professional player, and attracted the attention of many teams. Thats right! Back then when Brother Cai was live streaming, he would double queue with this Zhou Xingfei! Before breaking his contract with Boro, Brother Cai also said that he wanted to go and participate in the competition with his real teammates. Shit, I didnt think much of it at the time, but now that Im thinking back My White God really had it tough ahhhhhh! Bai Cai hadnt indulged his fans for the past year for nothing. Although nobody knew that he was the Gossip Emperor, hed also learned a lot about these little sisters preferences through his position as the Gossip Emperor. While catering to their likes, Brother Cai had also managed fans of White very well. Once someone was a fan, they would start to care about their players past. The highlights of Bai Cais past were, a very unremarkable support, and high priced contract termination. Previously, the fans hadnt known why. Now, it all lined up. CCHe wanted to play with his real teammates. CCHe terminated his existing contract without any hesitation. CCHis teammate flew far and high After these clues were all pulled out bit by bit, the fans exploded! Damn it what a scum! No wonder FTW insisted on picking OD. It was for the sake of my Brother Cai! I was wrong, Id like to apologize for scolding Quiet. This guy is really righteous, kind and loyal! On the screen, the youth in the black FTW team uniform stood there beneath the dazzling stage lights. He was tall, his legs were long, and his clothing was worn casually, revealing pale and slender arms. His left hand was inserted into his trouser pocket, and he looked cool and arrogant. His facial features were very handsome, and when he smiled, it was as bright as the sun. The way his eyes were hooded and cold as he stared at Zhou Xingfei it was really alpha-like! The recording was still playing on repeat, broadcasting those two sentences over and over. Zhou Xingfeis expression was incredibly ugly. This kid had actually recorded it! He Wei Xiao spoke in a cool tone, God Zhou, if youre a man, then apologize frankly. Nobody will say much about you over something that took place such a long time ago. These words sounded like a way to step back, but the tone of his voice was full of irony. Zhou Xingfei was caught in a dilemma. Apologize? He couldnt swallow down this indignity! Why should he apologize? Bai Cai had been stupid on his own, so how could he be blamed for it? What if he didnt apologize? Zhou Xingfei really hated this recording to death. He hated it so much that he was gritting his teeth. Hed been too careless, and he completely hadnt expected that Wei Xiao had been tricking him into saying things. At this time, Bai Cai also walked over. He wasnt like Wei Xiao; his clothing was neat, and the zipper of his uniform jacket was pulled up to the top. FTWs support player had always been synonymous with the phrase easy to get along with. Even on the day that theyd won the domestic championships, hed also pressed his lips together in a smile, appearing restrained and reserved. However, at this time, his mouth was tense, and he looked coldly at Zhou Xingfei. His look made Zhou Xingfei feel a trace of guilt in his heart. His nerves, which had originally already been stretched to the limit, couldnt hold on I Wei Xiao stopped the replay from the recording pen, and the stage fell silent. Zhou Xingfei exhaled heavily and spoke in Chinese, Im sorry. He just wanted to leave quickly and wished he could disappear immediately. Wei Xiao suddenly opened his mouth, his clear voice ringing through the large banquet hall, Apology not accepted. He walked up to Zhou Xingfei and said to him, Your apology. Our White doesnt accept it. Bai Cai was stunned. Wei Xiao called out to him, Old Bai, lets go. At this time, Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had also come over. The FTW group didnt give Zhou Xingfei a second glance as they walked down together. Most of the participants were foreigners who didnt understand Chinese, so they were still unclear about what exactly had just happened. However, the Chinese fans in the livestream studio had already exploded! Oh my god, Quiet is too inspiring! You can make your apology, but Laozi has no obligation to accept it or forgive you? Damn! That was great! Brother Cai has really found a treasure, oh, thats not right, FTW has really found a treasure! The actions and consequences that had led to this situation were all clear. Everyone could see that FTW had rushed to the top three on the scoreboard in order to play against OD. From the recording, it could be seen that both sides had an agreement. As long as FTW won, Zhou Xingfei would apologize to Bai CaiCCapologize for tricking Bai Cai. Quiet was also very fierce. Knowing that Zhou Xingfei would try to get out of it, he had directly gone and recorded the conversation. This on-the-spot recording playback was tantamount to a public execution. Zhou Xingfei was already depressed from being targeted in the game, and his teammates hadnt held back from scolding him. Something like this also popped up at this time, and he couldnt help but be a little flustered regardless of how smooth and slick he usually was. Hed only wanted to calm things down and get through it, which was why hed apologized despite being unwilling and insincere. Who couldve known that Quiet would send him off with those three words: Apology not accepted. Hed put in a lot of effort to make him apologize, simply because hed done something wrong. But apologies didnt alter the harm that the victim had suffered, so the apology hadnt been accepted. After stepping down from the stage, Bai Cai finally came back to his senses, You Wei Xiao slung an arm around his shoulder, Why should you forgive him? Does he deserve it? The cold voice poured into Bai Cais heart like a stream of heat, making his nose feel sour, You He couldnt hold back his tears. Bai Cai choked out, Whats the point of riling up a mad dog. Wei Xiao helped him block the cameras, Just let him bite me. It just so happens that Im bored. Bai Cai: F*ck! Later on, this matter was sorted out by fans and posted up on Weibo. The entire incident was pulled out and picked clean. Some people even dug out photos of Bai Cai from when hed just joined the team. A Bai Cai whod been skinny and bony, his entire person appearing out of sorts. It looked nothing like his currently clean and handsome appearance. When the people who were still saying that Bai Cai had done well for himself after terminating the contract saw these photos, they all shut up. Even if they didnt know exactly what hed experienced, just looking at the Bai Cai in the photos was enough to tell them how big of a blow hed suffered at the time. An 18, 19 year old youth. Whod entrusted everything to his teammate. His dreams and his trust. All piled up on the body of a scum. Who hadnt ever dreamed? Who hadnt once had a passionate heart? Who hadnt experienced the enthusiasm that inspired them to proceed without turning back?! Unfortunately there was always reality and despicable means that would cool such young hot-bloodedness. Fortunately, Bai Cai now had real teammates. *** By the time they returned to the training room, Bai Cai had already stabilized his mood. Hed cried until he looked like a panda and was now feeling self-conscious and ashamed, and didnt dare look up. Coach Chen stared at him for a while, then began to settle accounts in the aftermath, Your medicine warlock played well. Brother Vegetable: Wei Xiao raised his hand, Report! Chen Feng raised his chin, Speak. Wei Xiao sold Bai Cai out thoroughly, Brother Vegetables elemental shaman, shadow priest, fiend warlock, and music mage are all extremely good! Bai Cai: All of the talents that Wei Xiao had named really tested ones hand speed and had extremely low fault tolerance rates. They were support talents that could cause an entire team to collapse in a moment of carelessness. The problem was Bai Cai spoke up quickly, Coach, dont listen to his nonsense. I His elemental shaman, shadow priest, fiend warlock, and music mage were all really terrible! Chen Feng uttered a sound of acknowledgement and said, Brother Cai has really hidden himself well. How disrespectful. How could Brother Vegetable continue to argue? He was about to die, Im not, I didnt, dont listen to him talk blindly Wei Xiao chuckled and said, Our team has such a powerful support. Hes so reliable. Bai Cai was going crazy, Wei Xiao! Wei Xiao ignored him and turned to wink at Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle, Dont you feel particularly safe and secure? Ning Zhehan was purposely very supportive, Brother Vegetable is so strong! Bai Cai: Dont assume that Laozi cant tell the difference between Vegetables and Cai! This group of punks! What did it mean to drive a duck onto a perch? Brother Vegetables lazy days were coming to an end! Although theyd won against OD, Chen Feng wanted to strike while the iron was hot and reviewed the game with them then and there. On the whole, FTW had performed well. Needless to say, Close hadnt made any errors during the entire game, and he was even more powerful in the top lane than hed been when he played jungler. Wei Xiao was full of recklessness and appeared impulsive, but in fact, he was brave and resourceful, and several of his ganks had been extremely on point. After Coach Chen came out with these three sentences of rainbow farts, Brother Cai promised to train bitterly with the elemental shaman, shadow priest, fiend warlock, and music mage. Anything Yan Jiang could play, he also had to master! Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had made some mistakes, but Chen Feng didnt purposely pick on them and only said, Continue to train. The points competition ended at 9:30PM, which was still considered early. FTW went to the international servers to queue as a team and played until 12:00 midnight. Chen Feng spoke, Thats enough, everyones free to do what they want. Wei Xiao looked pleadingly at Lu Feng, Captain. Lu Feng invited him to a game over the game interface. Wei Xiao was instantly excited, Ahhhhhh, Im coming! With this level of excitement, those who didnt know otherwise would think hed won the lottery! Lu Feng said, Take the immortal thief. As long as Wei Xiao could solo, he was willing to play anything! Wei Xiao took the immortal thief, and Lu Feng took the power thief. This was a remake of tonights game. When FTW played against OD, Wei Xiao had used the immortal thief, and Zhou Xingfei had used the power thief. During the entire game, Zhou Xingfeis power thief had been beaten up by Wei Xiao, to the point where he had no way to fight back. Now The immortal thief whod been running wild through the heavens was smeared into the ground by the seemingly clumsy power thief. Wei Xiao sucked in a breath, Sure enough, there are no crappy heroes, only crappy players. They were both power thieves, but it had seemed useless and clumsy when Zhou Xingfei used it, while the captain made it seem dashing enough to explode! So what if its movement skill had a short range? So what if it held a giant axe? When the axe swept over, its momentum was unparalleled! It was too overbearing, okay?! One match came to an end. Lu Feng spoke to Wei Xiao, The power thief can suppress the immortal thief. Give it a go next time. Wei Xiao replied, Its still early, why dont we try it now! If he could play once, then he wanted to play twice. Once just really wasnt enough. Wei Xiao, who was immersed in his excitement, was just about to pester for more, but who couldve known that Lu Feng would toss a light sentence his way, Its so late, dont you have to accompany your girlfriend? Wei Xiao instantly came to attention and sat up straight. Hed been playing so happily that hed completely forgotten about this matter. Private spending money. The boss. Girlfriend. Countless key words flooded into his mind, and Wei Xiao collapsed! Lu Feng stood up, Im going back first. Chapter 60: My boss is my captain?! Lu Feng had just left when Wei Xiao immediately jumped up. Im going too! Then, he picked up his jacket and strode out the door. Little Ning was very curious. He poked his granny gray head out to look and said, It turns out that Brother Xiao has a girlfriend already, hey. Respect, respect, Quiet was a winner at life! Bai Cai: Yue Wenle was also quite curious, I couldnt tell. I thought he would spend his entire life soloing. Bai Cais hand shook, and he thought to himself: Old Yue, youre 0.01 seconds away from touching on the truth! Old Bai, who really knew too much, felt very hollow, Come and triple queue. The two of them agreed at the same time. Ning Zhehan wanted to continue gossiping while they queued, Brother Cai, is Brother Xiaos girlfriend pretty? 17 or 18 year old children were too interested in this kind of thing, so he couldnt help but ask. The great demon kings cold and handsome face floated across Bai Cais mind, Good looking. Who would f*cking dare say that Close wasnt good looking? Tens of thousands of madame fans would boot you all the way out to outer space if you wanted to give it a try! Ning Zhehan spoke the words in his heart, Respect, respect. Bai Cais mouth twitched: Theres really no need! Triple queueing for a high ranked match was really slow. Yue Wenle also spoke up, Are they a college schoolmate? They all knew about Wei Xiaos educational background, and not only were they shocked, they also understood a little bitCCjust based on this kids enthusiasm, was there anything he couldnt do well?! Bai Cai shook his head, No. Ning Zhehan: High school classmate? Ah, he was even more full of respect. Ning Zhehan also had a crush on a goddess, but his goddess hated internet addicted youths QAQ. Bai Cai could only continue to be vague, Theyre working. Yue Wenle was surprised, The grandmasters really capable. Hed even managed to find an older woman! Bai Cai couldnt keep this up anymore, I dont know much either. If youre curious, then ask him about it tomorrow. Ning Zhehan was very innocent and naive, Mm! Ill find a chance to ask him about it tomorrow. Bai Cai: Was he really going to ask? Unfortunately, the words that had been spoken were like water that had already been spilled out, and Brother Cai couldnt collect it back again. Forget it, forget it, getting to watch Wei Xiaoxiao be embarrassed was also something to be amused over. Wei Xiao rushed all the way back to the room and pushed open the door just in time to see Lu Feng undressing. The hotel lights hit the man vertically from above, and the lights and shadows outlined the solid back like a beautiful oil painting that was filled with a sense of power. Lu Fengs actions paused for a moment when he heard the noise. Then, he took off his T-shirt completely and turned to look at the door. Sexy collarbones, a powerful chest, and one two three four five six seven eight ab muscles. Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment, Captain Lu Feng leaned over and picked up his bathrobe, Yes? Wei Xiao forgot what hed come for and blurted out, How did you train those? They were both internet addicted youths. How come the gap between them was so big! Wei Xiao wanted to lift up his clothes and take a look at himself! Lu Feng: Get up early every day to exercise. You could do it too. Wei Xiao shook his head frantically, No, its better to die early than to get up early. Lu Feng: The body is the capital for revolution. Wei Xiao shook his head even more fiercely, Our revolution doesnt require those eight ab muscles. Lu Feng paused for a moment and didnt say anything else. Wei Xiao was the type to reach out for a yard after gaining an inch. He closed the door behind him and came close, stretching out a hand to poke with, F*ck, this is really the limit! It was really damned amazing. Even men found him handsome, so it was no wonder so many female fans wanted to marry him. Lu Feng reached down and caught his wrist. Wei Xiao was stunned. Lu Fengs voice deepened slightly, Youre someone with a girlfriend Wei Xiao lifted his head to look at him, Ah. He was about to develop a girlfriend phobia. Every time he heard this word, his heart was about to crack apart from guilt! Lu Fengs lips curved, So, dont act like a rogue. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng released his hand and headed to the bathroom, Im going to take a bath. After being left in a muddled daze for three seconds, Wei Xiao came back to his senses. F*ck! Hed been teased by the captain! Oh, that wasnt right, hed teased the captain first. Ummm Wei Xiaos desire for victory was about to explode: he hadnt made a loss! He only remembered now that hed come back to talk about proper things. Now, the captain had gone to take a bath. He definitely couldnt just shout through the door and could only continue to wait. Wei Xiao looked around everywhere, but he couldnt find Lu Fengs phone. He wouldnt be able to use the method of sending a message to test things out. At this time, his cell phone beeped. Wei Xiao quickly bowed his head to look; it really was his girlfriend. LU: Is training over? Wei Xiao stared at the message for a long time, then lifted his head to look at the bathroom The sound of water could be heard; the captain was definitely taking a bath. So, had he really had overthought things, and the boss and captain were two separate people? It was just that they were both surnamed Lu, and they both happened to be rich and generous, and both just so happened to treat him very well? To hell with coincidence! When he thought about the matter of private spending money and how obvious the implication had been, the truth was as naked and blatant as the captain whod taken off his clothes! Wei Xiao pressed down the urge to go and push open the bathroom door. They were all men and didnt have many scruples, but the other party was bathing and barging in like that was very rude. Wei Xiao wouldnt do something so disgusting. He tested his hypothesis patiently, I just finished training. Brother Lu hasnt gone to sleep yet? LU: No rush. Wei Xiao: Wanna play? LU: In the bath, cant play. Wei Xiao turned his head around with a swish and looked towards the captain in the bathroom. Damn it, did these two people even bathe together?! Could there be such a coincidence? Wei Xiao was already 99% certain in his heart, but he didnt dare to admit it. Hahaha, youre still playing with your cell phone while taking a bath. Could it be that youre soaking in the tub? LU: Shower. Wei Xiao: LU added, The phone is waterproof. Wei Xiao cracked, Captain LU: Mm. Wei Xiao: He called out directly, Captain! Lu Feng hadnt gone to take a bath at all. He came out in his bathrobe, You can continue calling me Brother Lu. Wei Xiao was stupefied for a moment, then fell back with a plop and collapsed on the bed. Lu Fengs eyes and the corner of his lips were full of laughter that couldnt be hidden away, But drop the girlfriend, the terms gender is wrong. Wei Xiao: Dont ask. If you ask, then he was already dead and it was time to burn paper offerings. Lu Feng left his cell phone outside and went back to really take a bath. Wei Xiao glanced at it. The screen was bright and shiny and filled with the chat logs of their conversations. Okay It was confirmed There was no need to doubt it There couldnt be this many coincidences in this world. His boss and his captain were the same person. Oh, his girlfriend and his other girlfriend were also the same person! Wei Xiao thought about all the things that had happened in the past and couldnt help closing his eyes. He tilted his head and feigned death. By the time Lu Feng came back outside, still wiping his hair, what he saw was the Wei Xiaoxiao who was pretending to be a corpse. Go wash up. Wei Xiao flopped up like a carp and was seated in a cross-legged position on the bed in seconds, Captain! His voice was unusually sad and indignant. Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiao had already recovered. He accused, Youve been deceiving me the whole time! Hed really been duped badly. What accompanying player, what boss, what Brother Lu? It had all been his captain toying around with him! Lu Feng had already decided to come clean, so he had naturally also planned to have a good talk with him about it, If I didnt do that, would I have been able to contact you? His voice was a little heated, like the steam in the bathroom. Wei Xiao opened his mouth and couldnt say a word. Lu Fengs next sentence really was intended as a joke, Youd already gone to New Oriental to pursue your dreams. Shouldnt I be careful when feeling things out? Wei Xiao: The waves hed stirred up back then had already turned to water in his mind that was about to burst out again in the form of tears! Lu Feng explained, I was afraid that if I contacted you directly, you would hide from me. So, hed used the ID LU and spent two million to buy ten thousand games with an accompanying player. Those who knew about this matter all thought that the reason why Lu Feng had used two million was because Wei Xiaos signing fee back then had been two million. But in fact, that wasnt it. Lu Feng had bought ten thousand games only because the accompanying player platform had restrictions and that was the maximum number of games that could be purchased at a time. Two years ago, Close had scraped everything together and could only offer Wei Xiao two million. Two years later, LU had been limited by the platform and could only buy ten thousand games. When Lu Feng said it like that, how could Wei Xiao not understand? At the time, he hadnt gotten over his grandmothers death. His heart was filled with thoughts of escaping and hiding away, and it would have been impossible for him to play professionally. If Close had really contacted him directly, Wei Xiao might not have dared to continue as an accompanying player. From then on, he would have stayed away from Glory and focused on becoming a good and honest teacher. However, Lu Feng used the ID LU to approach him, guide him, and comfort him, giving him the guidance and support from a male elder that hed lacked from childhood. The captain had gone to great lengths to bring him back. Back to FTW, back to the competition arena he loved, back to the starting point of his dream. Wei Xiaos heart was as hot as a heated iron, and his voice grew soft, Then, after I returned to the team, you Lu Feng laughed quietly, I did want to come clean, but you talked about having a girlfriend every time. If I admitted it, wouldnt you have run off again? Wei Xiao: He wouldve. He would have put a huge rocket on his back and flown up into the sky, shooting himself directly out into the universe. Seeing how uncomfortable Wei Xiao looked, Lu Feng shifted to another topic, One year ago, was it you who suggested that Bai Cai come to FTW? Wei Xiao nodded, At the time, Old Bai had lost heart and insisted on going back to his hometown. I told him to come find you and give it a try. Lu Fengs voice was very light, Thank you. Wei Xiao looked up abruptly, Ah? Thanks for what? If thanks were going to be said, then he should be thanking the captain for Old Bai. If it hadnt been for FTW taking Bai Cai in, Bai Cai wouldve gone home to raise pigs back then! Lu Feng sat across from him and said slowly, FTWs performance was really bad in 2019. During the transfer period, only Tang Chen and I were left in the team. Wei Xiaos eyes suddenly opened wide. That was FTWs darkest time. The Team of Gods disbanded in 2017. In 2018, Close took advantage of the momentum to lead FTW to the global competition. Although they were stopped at the knockout stages, it wasnt the worst result. 2019 was their most miserable year. FTWs shortcomings were fully exposed, and the entire China competition zone was in a slump. In the global competition, surrounded by strong opponents everywhere, FTW wasnt even able to make it out of the preliminaries and had been cursed and scolded by fans after returning home. At the time, FTWs three newcomers were all in a state of mental collapse. There was too much pressure. Just being teammates with Close had given them a lot of pressure, and the pressure only mounted when they couldnt make any achievements. When they came back home and had to face online public opinion, it made them even more uncomfortable and closed up. This didnt just apply to normal people. Even Tang Chen, who was steady and big hearted, had deleted his Weibo and closed his live broadcast during that time period. He didnt dare to meet anyone. As soon as the transfer period arrived, the three newcomers listed themselves up one after another, preferring to go to unknown, bottom ranked teams than to stay in FTW. At the time, FTW was really short on people and stretched to the limits. When Bai Cai came, Close had been extremely dumbfounded. Close had no impression of this skinny and pitiful youth in front of him, but he saw a familiar eagerness in his eyes. He was eager to play, eager to compete, and filled with the desire to win. Like Wei Xiao. Bai Cai said, Can you let me have a chance? I can be your support player. Lu Feng had been slightly stunned, Okay. At a time when FTW was most short of people, Bai Cais arrival was timely, allowing the withered desert to sprout new shoots. Bai Cai was very excellent and was especially well suited for Close. The two of them had obviously never met before or trained together, but it seemed as though Bai Cai had double queued with him countless times. Hed been very familiar with his operation habits. Chen Feng had also been curious about it, and then he thought, Hes probably one of your fans. Fan? A fan who primarily played support, whod watched countless Close games and understood Close so well? Lu Feng couldnt come up with any other possibilities, so he could only believe that that was the case. Now, theyd finally found the answer. Wei Xiaos heart clenched when he heard this. Over these two years, what exactly had FTW experienced? No the question should be, how much pressure had Close had to bear?! Lu Feng thanked him sincerely, Thank you for having Bai Cai come here. What hed done had allowed them to pull FTW up, and only then would they have the Yue Wenle that had been discovered by Bai Cai from their second team, and only then could FTW achieve the domestic championship in 2020. Wei Xiao was awkward and embarrassed, Im the one who should thank you for taking such good care of Old Bai. Over the past year, regardless of whether it was his body or his mental outlook, Bai Cai seemed to be like a completely new person. What had caused it? It was the cold-faced, soft-hearted Close, the healthy environment of FTW, and all the warm people around him. Besides, Wei Xiao continued, Bai Cai has now begun to support me instead. It was really interesting. One year ago, in order to help Bai Cai partner with Close, hed pulled him into frenzied training so that he could keep up with Close. Bai Cai had then followed Close and played professionally for a year, and now he was starting to cooperate with Wei Xiao again. Things had come a full circle. Wei Xiaos wild thoughts began to take over again, Captain! Dont you think that Brother Cais like a thread that ties us together! Lu Feng: . After saying so, Wei Xiao suddenly seemed to wake up, F*ck! Its Old Bai! Hes the one who sold me out! There was no avoiding this; previously, the captain hadnt known about his and Bai Cais secret cooperation at all. How else would he suddenly know about it? It must have been that Bai Cai had sold him out. That bastard kept saying that he didnt know anything, but actually, he knew everything? The fact that his boss was his captain. Hed known about it from the start? Hed been lying to him the whole time! Wei Xiao blew up. He couldnt do anything to the captain, but Brother Vegetable was done for. If he didnt strip off a layer of his skin, then hed write his name backwards, from Wei Xiaoxiao to Xiaoxiao Wei! Lu Feng: Hed only thought about coming clean and had completely forgotten about Bai Cai. Seeing that Wei Xiao was about to rush out the door, Lu Feng held him back, Its already late, what are you kicking up a fuss for. Wei Xiao was going crazy, I dug out my heart and lungs for that Vegetable, yet he turned around and sold me out so completely. Today, I Lu Feng was conscious that he was in the wrong and compromised, How about we have another solo game? A certain person whod originally been about to run off in a frenzy immediately quieted down. Lu Feng was a little regretful. Wei Xiao turned up his nose, Two games. For the sake of covering up his mistake, Lu Feng nodded. Wei Xiao was insatiable, Five games! Lu Feng: Alright. Wei Xiaoxiao had indeed been somewhat wronged today. Wei Xiaos eyes shifted, and his lions mouth opened up wide, Speaking of which Lu Feng raised his eyebrows. Wei Xiao wasnt afraid of him and spoke very reasonably, It should be 9991 games! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao was very impressed with himself, Brother Lu, you purchased ten thousand games with an accompanying player. I have the records. Lu Feng was silent for a moment, I remember you wanted to refund them. Wei Xiao clung to his cell phone, Youre the one who told me not to do it! Lu Feng: I regret it now. Wei Xiao was delighted, Too late! Lu Feng: . Lu Feng tried to hold back but finally failed to do so and flicked Wei Xiaos forehead, Fine, dont go and make trouble with Bai Cai. Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, Captain, does that mean that youre selling yourself to save a vegetable? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao instantly became sour, Captain, you really love Brother Vegetable, hey. Juurensha: hahahaha, theyre both hilarious. (Also, Lu Feng you minx! Stripping off your shirt and giving Wei Xiao a show!) xiin: ahhhhh LF spoils WX so much so much so much so much Chapter 61: Wei Xiao, sleepwalking. He had to beg and plead for a single round of solo, but now that hed tied up that vegetable and held it hostage, he could get 9991 games. Wei Xiao grew more bitter the more he thought about it, The feelings between those who have fought shoulder to shoulder really isnt the same. Ahhhh, hed missed out on a full two years. Otherwise, the captain would care about him the most right now! Lu Feng could guess what he was thinking, Solo or sleep, pick one. Wei Xiao immediately replied, Solo! Dont even think of sleeping tonight! He was bitter and angry and just wished he could break one hour up into three hours to make up for the previous two years. It was already midnight, which was time for Lu Feng to go to bed. He had attempted to maintain a healthy biological clock for the past three years. Hed only made a few exceptions, and it seemed that they were all related to Wei Xiao. Sure enough, something like self-control really depended on who was involved. Lu Feng said, Go wash up first. Wei Xiao had already started to boot up the machines, No rush, no rush. Lu Feng: If you dont wash up, forget it. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng: Going or not? Going! Wei Xiao could only be docile and obedient, heading to the bathroom with his bathrobe in his arms even as he muttered under his breath, Its so hard being me, I even have to wash and get changed before soloing with you. Lu Feng had told him to wash up because hed wanted to be able to play with him for a bit longer, and then go to sleep directly whenever he grew tired. Hed originally said that they wouldnt solo for these 15 days of training, but in fact, he hadnt even managed to hold out for three days. Forget it, hed let it go for today and stop indulging him tomorrow. Lu Feng set up their keyboards and mice with that thought in mind. The computers in the guest room couldnt be compared with those in the training room, and the internet speed was a little worse, too. Fortunately, soloing was done over the local area network, so they werent really affected. The two of them used various configurations and played for a full three hours. Wei Xiao only won two games. Lu Feng left the game room, Enough. Wei Xiao was unsatisfied, Its only been seven games! Lu Feng: Theres still free matching in the afternoon. Wei Xiao was still hesitating. Scoring points was very important, but latching onto the captain hadnt been easy Lu Feng dangled a carrot in front of him, Ill double queue with you for the free matching. ! Wei Xiao was instantly tempted. Lu Feng didnt restrain the corner of his lips from rising and continued deliberately, Or, you can continue to accompany Bai Cai Wei Xiao yelled, I want to double queue with you! Lu Feng: Shut down the computer and sleep then. The internet addicted youth was very reluctant, Fine. It was already 3:30AM by the time the two of them went to bed. Sleepiness swept over Lu Feng as soon as his head touched the pillow. On the other hand, Wei Xiao couldnt sleep. He lay on his side, facing Lu Feng, Captain He called out to him in a low, quiet voice. Lu Fengs eyes were closed, Hm? Wei Xiao couldnt fall asleep. When he thought about what had happened recently, he always felt that it was all very magical Ten thousand games with an accompanying player. Such a good boss, such a good captain. Hed wandered around for two years, but had actually come back in the end. Hed thought that hed missed out on this opportunity forever, but who couldve known that hed have it back again. And all of this was given to him by Lu Feng. The more he thought about it, the warmer he felt. There was no filter over his mouth, Youre really good to me. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao curled up into a shrimp ball beneath the quilt, Before this, only my grandma was this good to me His voice became even smaller as he spoke. Lu Feng opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling. His heart felt like it had been stung by a bee. By the time he turned his head over, Wei Xiao had already fallen asleep. The grown up boy who had his eyes closed didnt show any traces of the recklessness that could be seen during the day, and his pale face appeared particularly tender. His gently quivering eyelashes made him seem like a child who was eager to be embraced in the midst of a nightmare. Wei Xiao was born good looking, the type with delicate and exquisite facial features. It was just that his character was normally too flamboyant, and it often made people overlook his delicate appearance, forgetting that he was only a 19 year old youth, forgetting that hed lost his closest relative two years agoCChed lost his home, lost the only person he could rely on. Lu Feng turned over to look at him, observing him without blinking he looked, and looked, and unwittingly fell asleep. In his dream, Lu Feng saw a three or four year old Wei Xiao, a soft and fragile little toddler. He picked up Wei Xiaoxiao and coaxed him, Dont cry, in the future, Ill Lu Feng woke up from his dream. He had indeed been dreaming, but he was now really holding onto something. Lu Feng suddenly opened his eyes and saw Wei Xiao, whod drilled straight into his arms. ! This It was obvious that Wei Xiao wasnt awake and wasnt aware of his actions. He had only tried desperately to get close to Lu Feng, holding onto him with his slender arms. At first, he had just been hugging his arm, but later on, it seemed that he felt that it wasnt enough and went on to hug his entire person Lu Feng had originally been sleeping on his side. At this moment, Wei Xiao had burrowed himself completely into his arms. Scattered strands of fine black hair fell on his arm, and his pale face was full of innocence and affection. Wei Xiao nestled in his arms, like a small animal eagerly waiting to be comforted. Lu Feng called out to him quietly, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was sleeping very soundly. On this island that was warm all year around, the temperature hovered around 25 or 26 degrees Celsius even during January. The room had temperature controlled air conditioning, so it wasnt hot at all, but at this moment, Lu Feng felt like he was on fire, heat spreading from his brain all the way down to his limbs and bones. He should push Wei Xiao away. But he was afraid to touch him. Wei Xiao was only wearing a short sleeved shirt and shorts. His smooth and clean arms wrapped around him, and his legs were also lifted up, clinging onto him like an octopus. Lu Feng shifted slightly. Wei Xiao hugged him even more tightly, even burrowing his head against his neck. The youths fresh scent wafted into Lu Fengs nose, and the hot, dry heat that had originally been churning around him condensed, making his throat feel dry and itchy, Little Xiao Wei Xiao snorted softly. Lu Feng: Shit. At four oclock in the morning, the great demon king experienced the meaning of the saying the evil one brought upon oneself was the hardest to bear. It wasnt until an hour later that Wei Xiao finally released him. He turned around, and Lu Feng reacted swiftly, catching him quickly. Wei Xiao didnt fall out of bed, but Lu Fengs fingertips quivered slightly. It was as though theyd been scalded by this touch. Fortunately, Wei Xiao was still sleeping soundly and didnt attempt to sleepwalk again. Lu Feng sucked in a deep breath and got out of bed to go to the bathroom. He wanted to take a shower, but was worried that hed wake Wei Xiao up. He could only stand against the wall for a while, waiting until hed calmed down before pulling on his jacket and heading out. The room was too hot, and Lu Feng couldnt stay inside any longer. There was a terrace at the end of the corridor in the hotel. It was still dark out at this time, and only the sound of the sea wind could be heard in the quiet night. Lu Feng had never smoked, but at this time, he really wished he had a cigarette in hand. You woke up so early? Chen Feng yawned and wondered out loud, Its only 5 AM. Lu Feng looked back at him, You havent slept? Chen Feng nodded, I watched other teams free matching for a while Coaches didnt need to go up onto the competition court and didnt need to train, but that didnt mean they had it any easier than the players. Chen Feng had watched basically all the free match games from the seeded players from all 18 competition zones. This was a great opportunity for them to understand their opponents, and it was also the time to speculate on other teams strategies. As FTWs military advisor, Chen Feng had to do his homework thoroughly. Lu Feng spoke, Pull less all-nighters. Chen Feng yawned repeatedly, Its fine. He drew out a cigarette. Lu Feng glanced at him and continued, Smoke less. Chen Feng: Fine, hed already smoked two packs in one evening. Chen Feng leaned against the railing. For better or worse, his brain, which had been somewhat dulled from sleepiness, finally moved slightly, You havent slept yet? Although Lu Feng usually woke up early, it wasnt early to this point. Based on his current appearance, it was obvious that he had stayed up all night. Lu Feng answered, Mm. Chen Feng was instantly energized, Why, what happened? Lu Feng: Nothing much. Chen Feng knew him too well. This nothing much clearly meant that something had happened! Little Lunatic Wei pestered you to solo again? Mm. You accompanied him to play around until now? Lu Feng: . Mother Hen Chen grew anxious, You cant indulge him so much, that kid Lu Feng explained, He went to sleep at three. Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief. Three oclock was fine. For this group of internet addicted youth who woke up at eleven oclock, that was enough sleep. Hes sleeping. Why havent you slept yet? Chen Feng was very puzzled. Lu Feng was silent for a moment, then said, He sleepwalks. Chen Feng: Ah? Lu Fengs face was expressionless, He climbed into my bed. Chen Feng: ! The great demon king broke the jar thoroughly, Held onto me and wouldnt let go. As an oldie whod followed Lu Feng for a full four years, if Chen Feng still hadnt figured out what Lu Fengs intentions were, then hed be just like Big Fool Tang! Hed had suspicions about Lu Fengs sexual orientation for a long time. It was just that theyd never talked about it, and hed never seen anyone Lu Feng was interested in, so Chen Feng had simply shelved the issue. Until Wei Xiao had appeared. Two years ago, Lu Feng probably hadnt had any additional thoughts about Wei Xiao. But now, two years later, Chen Feng was certain that Lu Feng had been bewildered into dizzy circles by this little lunatic. Of course, Little Lunatic Wei really was very likeable. Chen Feng considered it for a moment, then inquired, Why dont you tell him? These two guys were like magnets, and their attraction to each other was equally strong. Lu Feng stared out at the black sea in the distance and asked rhetorically, Tell him that I like him? Chen Feng: Lu Feng chuckled, Hed marry me the next second. Chen Feng: ! He didnt know why, but a picture was forming in his head. However, Lu Fengs voice drifted over, his tone extremely calm, If you went and said it, or if Bai Cai did, or Yue Wenle, or Ning Zhehan went and said it he would do the same thing. Chen Feng: Damn, Little Lunatic Wei would really do such a thing! Chen Feng instantly began to feel sorry for Lu Feng. Wasnt liking a person good? Why did he have to fall for such a beast! Lu Fengs lips curved, and he was actually in a good mood, Im going back. You should get some sleep. Chen Feng opened his mouth and wanted to say: You like him, and he sleepwalks. Wont something happen if the two of you sleep together! On second thought Forget it, if Wei Xiao was going to hold onto someone, it might as well be Lu Feng. As for a single room, how could he let an internet addict like Wei Xiao live alone? With nobody watching over him, he was likely to stay up and pull all nighters until he died a sudden death! Based on Chen Fengs understanding of Lu Feng that had been built up over the years, he wasnt actually worried. Not to mention, Wei Xiao was still young, and the current FTW couldnt withstand any turmoil. The team had only just been reorganized, and they hadnt even started playing in the domestic competition yet. What was the point in talking about these unimportant things! As the fans would sayCC Was the regular season a grand slam? Had they won all the playoffs? Had they taken home the world cup? If they didnt have any of that, then to hell with falling in love! In fact, Chen Feng wasnt too worried about it. Wei Xiao definitely wasnt a straight man. Just based on how much energy he spent on Close, he must be as crooked as a mosquito incense coil! It was just that Little Lunatic Wei was oblivious to these things. There were advantages to such obliviousness. For example, he was very bold in the competition arena and wasnt afraid of anything. The downsides were also obvious. This obliviousness that was as thick as city walls meant that Captain Lu would really be wearing away at it for a long time. Lu Feng returned to the room and took in the Wei Xiaoxiao who was still sleeping on his bed. This kid never ate on time and was picky when he did, so all of the nutrients in his body had gone into his height. His arms and legs were pale and thin, his shorts were loose, and his half-visible, thin waist Lu Feng raised up the quilt and covered him tightly. He went to sleep in Wei Xiaos bed and stared unblinkingly at the ceiling. What hed said to Chen Feng just now was both the truth and also an excuse. The reason Lu Feng hadnt expressed his interest was more because he cared about Wei Xiao. The Little Xiao who hadnt had parents from a young age and had no choice but to grow up was very eager for love. And this love shouldnt only be the love between lovers. Wei Xiao, whod worked so hard in his childhood, deserved to experience all the beautiful feelings in this world. Lu Feng wanted to give him love and care, have him relax and trust. Even more, he wanted to become the solid backing that supported him and allowed him to be wanton and reckless. A selfless affection, a warm friendship. Wholehearted reliance, and a trust that was worth committing to. CCLu Feng wanted to give him all of it. Juurensha: Awwww, thats so sweet, Lu Feng. xiin: the captain has the biggest marshmallow heart~ Chapter 62: Little Lunatic Wei, famed for his double entendre When Wei Xiao woke up, it was almost eleven oclock. He stretched, and looked to the left out of habit. What entered his gaze were dark and heavy blinds Eh? Where was the captain?! Oh, that wasnt right, this was the captains bed! Wei Xiaos short hair exploded and stood on end. He was shocked to discover that hed switched beds. Wasnt this the captains bed? How come he was sleeping on the captains bed?! Sleepwalking again? F*ck! Wei Xiao patted the top of his own head. Hed really been too tired yesterday. Hed played hard yesterday to rank in the top three on the scoreboard, and in order to win the training match that evening, hed put in 200% of his energy. Additionally, the fact that the boss and the captain were actually the same people had greatly stimulated him, and then hed indulged fully and happily in soloing all the way until 3AM All kinds of things could be listed out and added up. It wouldve been more strange if he hadnt sleepwalked! Many years of experience told him that once his spirit and body were tired out at the same time, there was no way to avoid sleepwalking. Oh shit What had he done last night? Had he climbed into the captains bed again? He hadnt done any beastly things, right?! He was still in a state of fear and panic as he got up to wash up, and he felt uneasy even as he brushed his teeth. Wei Xiao was very clear about his own sleepwalking bad habits. He would desperately hold onto people and cling onto them exactly like an octopus. Fortunately, it was the captain. If it was a girl, he would have to take responsibility, get married, and have children! This scene was too terrible. Wei Xiao shivered. After quickly washing his face, Wei Xiao sent Lu Feng a message, Captain, last night F*ck, he didnt know what to say, so hed sent the message just like that! Lu Feng replied to him a while later, Youre awake? Wei Xiao stared at these two words and read them again and again, but he couldnt tell if the captain was angry or not. Wei Xiao closed his eyes; his heart seemed to flatline, and he tossed out, I didnt do anything disrespectful to you last night, right? If the captain felt like hed been taken advantage of, then hed Let him beat him up? Lu Feng set down the document in his hand and raised his eyebrows, Disrespectful? Wei Xiao gave him a general explanation, For example, hugging you, touching you randomly, kissing you, or something Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao stressed, I dont remember anything! Lu Feng suppressed the heat that rose up in his chest, Do you do these things whenever you sleepwalk? Wei Xiao was worried hed scare Lu Feng and quickly explained, Never. But I cant be certain that my sleepwalking hasnt upgraded or mutated oh He finally got it, It seems like I didnt do anything! Lu Fengs fingers trembled very slightly as he typed out a line of words, It cant be considered nothing. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng thought about the youth whose breath had been right next to his ear yesterday and said, You kissed me on the face. Wei Xiao: He was dead. At this moment, guest room number 666 held a Little Wei Corpse. The dying Wei Xiao tried his best to save himself, Captain! Lu Fengs lips curved, Mm. Wei Xiao: I didnt mean to QAQ. Lu Feng: Oh. Wei Xiao stared at these two single tone words and thought of something amidst his nervousness! He quickly poked out the words, I know why, I mustve thought that you were Soybean. I love holding onto it when I sleep at night, and kiss its doggy head quite often After sending it out, Wei Xiao belatedly realized what hed said. Hed compared the captain to a dog! Hed actually treated the great demon king like a husky! He Lu Feng: Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: Captain QwQ. The great demon king sent him three cold and ruthless words, Sleep earlier tonight. Wei Xiao fell apart with a crack and toppled onto the bed. Wuwuwu, there went that nights solo! A super big solo session that would last a whole three hours had flown away right in front of his eyes! When Bai Cai came to find him to go and eat, Wei Xiao transferred his anger onto him, Old Bai! His voice was gloomy as could be. Bai Cai was scared by his tone, You-what do you want! Wei Xiao hauled him into the room and slammed the door shut. Bai Cai really turned into a little white cabbage then. He was shocked, What the hell are you doing! Bandit Wei approached him step by step and forced him against the wall. White Cabbage Bai: You-you There was a thump as Brother Vegetable stuck himself against the wall. Wei Xiao lifted up the clothes hanger hed prepared a long time ago, Confess to your crimes and Ill be lenient, or suffer punishment if you resist. Bai Cai exploded, What the hell is wrong with you so early in the morning? Since you have so many plays to act out, why dont you just join the entertainment circle! Wei Xiao poked his chest with the hanger, The captain told me about it last night. Bai Cai: ! What did he talk about? For Wei Xiao to act so crazy now, what else could it be. Captain, youve sabotaged me ahhhhh! No matter what, if Brother Vegetable had known this would happen even one second earlier, he wouldnt have thrown himself into this net! Bai Cai, who had a strong desire for survival, was clear-minded and quick-tongued. He shrewdly and immediately told the whole story of what had happened at the time, I didnt sell you out! I absolutely didnt! Even if I have the heart of a thief, I still wouldnt have the guts! It was an accident, the whole thing was a f*cking accident. At the time, you made a review video for Little Ning, and I was watching it after I received it. The captain just happened to hear your voice Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment, but he still felt that Bai Cai was resisting, I only stayed with the captain for three days and three nights. Two years later, he was able to recognize me just by hearing my voice? Bai Cai: How the hell would I know? You just prattled a couple of sentences, and he asked if it was Wei Xiao. I was almost scared to death, okay! Wei Xiao saw that he wasnt lying, Really? Bai Cai swore fiercely, I swear by all the money deposited across my three bank cards! Wei Xiao: Brother Vegetable had a clear conscience and asked, If what I said wasnt the truth, then Ill clear them all out to zero overnight! Wei Xiao believed him. This oath was crueler than simply taking Old Bais little life. It seemed that he wasnt lying. Bandit Wei tapped the hanger lightly against his own palm, This isnt all your fault. Bai Cai was relieved. He was really scared that Wei Xiao might go crazy. What if this brat revealed his identity as the Gossip Emperor? Brother Cai would really become a wilted vegetable then. Wei Xiao carefully went over the facts, Alright, in my final analysis, its also because Im too charming. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao was delighted, I can make the captain unable to forget about me even after being separated for two years. Im really a man with deep sins. Bai Cai: Screw you! Wei Xiao felt that his position in Closes heart wasnt much worse than Brother Cai, and he was in a great mood. He found Bai Cai much more pleasing to the eye as well now. Lets go eat. Like hell did Bai Cai still want to eat! He was full from sheer fright! As the two of them headed to the restaurant, they ran into Ning Zhehan. Little Nings curiosity sprang up and ran wild as soon as he saw Wei Xiao, Brother Xiao! Wei Xiao was in a good mood, and the tone of his voice had also cheered up, Hm? Ning Zhehan laughed cheekily, If you have a girlfriend, why not show her off a little! Wei Xiao: Bai Cai stumbled and almost died right there in the corridor! Ning Zhehan was quite interested in this, I heard Brother Cai say that shes very beautiful, and shes already started working. Wei Xiao glanced at Bai Cai and gave a superficial smile, Mm. Theyre very beautiful, especially beautiful, the kind where you cant move your legs with a glance. Ning Zhehan was shocked, Are you for real? Are they a star? Wei Xiao described a few details, They look even better than a star; they dont make any less money than a star, and theyre very good at taking care of people. Its just that their personality is a little cold Ning Zhehan admired him, Amazing, Brother Xiao, you managed to find such a top notch girlfriend! Wei Xiao waved his hand, Theres nothing that can be done about things like fate. Ning Zhehan was even more admiring, It seems like the two of you have a great relationship. Wei Xiao thought about how favored Brother Cai was and was jealous for a moment, Of course, they value me the most! Bai Cai understood him too well, to the point where he couldnt understand where the scent of vinegar in these words came from! Wasnt it a given that Close thinks highly of you? What are you staring at me for? Do you think I dare to fight with you over the captain? Ning Zhehan couldnt tell at all and sighed emotionally, How great. Wei Xiao was modest, Its alright. Bai Cai: Last night, hed thought that he could see Little Lunatic Wei end up in an embarrassing position, but facts showed that he was still too young and inexperienced! When they arrived at the restaurant, they ran into Gary again. Gary had also just arrived. He noticed Wei Xiao at a glance, and his eyes started to spit out fire. He really wished he could skip the meal and have a fight with Wei Xiao first. Wei Xiao shot him a greeting, Good morning. Gary used his crappy Chinese to reply, Murning! Wei Xiao thought of Old Gs excellent playing yesterday, and his heart was itchy, Continue to work hard today! He still really wanted to play against L&P. After losing several times to them, Wei Xiao wanted to get even at least once. Gary thought about how hed worked hard yesterday, and he was really angry today. I dont believe you anymore! This tone was like a little wife whod been cheated by a scum man. Wei Xiao coaxed him, Yesterday was an exception. Gary: Youre a liar! Wei Xiao: I really do want to fight with you. Gary got angrier the more he thought about it. Youll get strong by going back on your words! Wei Xiao: Its getting fat by going back on your words. If one could really get strong by going back on ones words, many people would be cheating others every day. Gary couldnt figure out these idioms, In any case, I wont be fooled again! Its like this Wei Xiao gave him advice, Old G, you should wash up and change clothes, burn incense and worship Buddha before you start free matching Gary: ??? Wei Xiao felt that this was an amazing move, Give yourself a full set of buffs ahead of time, and you might be able to end up in a match with FTWs starters in the afternoon. Gary didnt keep up with him, I want to play a team game against you! Wei Xiaos eyes were full of care for a little fool, As long as you can match up with us in the afternoon, youll be able to hammer our FTW into negative points. If you get first place for L&P, wouldnt you be able to do whatever you want with us? Old G: Bai Cai and Ning Zhehan who were listening from the side, Even if they admired nothing else, they had to admire him. What a genius of logic! Yuan Ze, who was smoking a cigarette outside, could almost feel flowers blooming in his ear as he listened. Gary: It seems to make a little sense Old Dog Yuan picked up his Big Fool G, Lets go. Gary: Eh Yuan Zes brain hurt, If you say another word, you can kill soldiers for six hours. Gary: Wei Xiao encouraged him, Work hard! Gary turned his head and said nothing. Yuan Ze looked at the other teams jungler, then looked at his own jungler, FTW had really picked up a treasure demon this year! While eating, Bai Cai, who always liked to go for the fine and fancy things, moved his chopsticks very slowly. Wei Xiao glanced at him, What are you doing? Bai Cai felt like his headache was splitting his head apart as he read his private messages. Wei Xiao leaned over. Brother Cai was editing a Weibo post. There were huge chunks of text, and it looked like a discussion post. Oh, it was Gossip Emperors daily CP. Wei Xiao was very curious, Who are you doing? He glanced over it briefly and was shocked! Old Bai, dont you feel disgusting? Bai Cai: Little Ning was across from them. Bai Cai was afraid of being exposed and poked him with a WeChat message, Shut the hell up! Wei Xiao was also afraid that Bai Cai might commit suicide. He shut up and typed, Arent you shameless? What the hell is Feeding Vegetables CP? Cant you respect yourself a little and not push your own CP? Bai Cai thought to himself, as someone who went into business to push themselves, dont you feel embarrassed judging me?! Bai Cai continued to type, Who told you to end up in the limelight yesterday? You ܳed me up into the hot search! Wei Xiao replied, Pay attention to your use of words. Things between us are clean and innocent. Bai Cai scalp tensed up inexplicably, and he clicked to withdraw the messageCCthe captain could never see this sentence. If he saw it, Bai Cai would be done for. The Weibo post that Bai Cai was editing was a short article about Quiet and White. Last night, FTWs official blog had officially announced their new jungler Quiet, and Wei Xiaos name was now known by everyone. Therefore, the Feeding Vegetables CP was born and almost instantly took over the hot search. Wei Xiao and Bai Cais past was something that people wouldnt know about unless they looked into it, but once they did, they fell in love! The rookie king from two years ago, an immortal jungler who was so amazing he could fly up to the sky, had taken his own little support to go and fight against all the major clubs. Unfortunately, the rookie king disappeared, and the little support fell. Two years later, the two of them reunited in FTW, and their dreams set sail once again! There was really both fluff and knives, and it was super exciting to follow. Not to mention, Wei Xiao had hammered Zhou Xingfei into pieces last night, and the sentence apology not accepted was simply alpha-like enough to explode, instantly converting countless fans. Bai Cais eyes had been obviously red when he stepped down. That scene when Wei Xiao protected him also pricked the hearts of countless girls. There was no heavenly reason for the Feeding Vegetables CP not to become popular! Early in the morning, Bai Cai really felt a bit of an urge to go die when he saw that pile of private messages. He didnt mind pushing his own CPs. After all, he often took advantage of Closes popularity and had become thoroughly shameless a long time ago. However, this Feeding Vegetables CP was something he really didnt dare to push. He wasnt scared of Wei Xiao; he was scared of the great demon king! It wasnt easy for Brother Cai to make a living in FTW. He didnt want to end up on the streets at all! However, the entire internet was already this fierce about it. As the glorious Gossip Emperor, it would be too strange if he didnt push out relevant contentCC The marketing wizard who dared to engage in pushing all sorts of CP, suddenly didnt dare to push the Feeding Vegetables CP? Why was that? Bai Cai was afraid that the shrewd netizens would then find that there was a vegetable stalk lying there under the Gossip Emperor Weibo. So, Brother Vegetable could only push it, and he had to do it seriously. He tried hard to pretend to be sincere and then secretly hint that there was garbage hidden behind this CP, and the little angels should quickly run away Life was too hard. Who the hell knew how many brain cells Bai Cai had wasted on fixing up this short post! Wei Xiao took out his cell phone and flipped through it for a long time. The more he looked, the angrier he became, What happened to Laozis Seclusion CP! Gaining momentum hadnt been easy, but it was all over now. Even his Seclusion CP fans had gone over the wall to join Feeding Vegetables. To hell with feeding a damned vegetable! Was Brother Cais popularity even 1/1000th of the captains popularity?! Wei Xiao took a look at his own fan count, then looked at Brother Cais fan count. Brother Cais fan count wasnt even as high as his own! This was no good There was no point in two weaklings relying on each other. He wanted to hug a big thigh! Wei Xiao asked, Have you seen the captain? Speak of the devil, and the devil would appear; Chen Feng and Lu Feng had just finished a meeting and had come downstairs to eat together. Wei Xiaos sharp eyes caught sight of them, and he beckoned to the two of them, Coach, captain, over here! Lu Feng looked over. Wei Xiao was taken by surprise when his eyes met the captains, and Wei Xiao felt a rare moment of shyness. Hey! To hell with being shy, proper business was pressing. Lu Feng came over, and Wei Xiao gave Bai Cai a push. Bai Cai: ? Wei Xiao: Youre full right? Make way for the captain. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao sent Bai Cai a WeChat message from under the table, If this matter succeeds, Ill forgive the matter of you betraying me. Bai Cai looked at this matter and his heart was full of grass and mud horses! Lu Feng had only just sat down when Wei Xiao shot him a sunny, bright smile, Captain, give this a try. Its very delicious. Hed used a clean fork to hold up a piece of celery near Lu Fengs mouth. Feeding Vegetables CP? He would let them all see what real feeding vegetables was! There was a click as the expressionless Brother Vegetable snapped a photo of this scene. xiin: *facepalm* Chapter 63: Double queue happiness~ Lu Feng looked down at the stalk of celery in front of him. Across from them, Chen Feng just wanted to cover his eyes. What did this have to do with anything? Close didnt like celery. Not only celery, he didnt like to eat any of these kinds of vegetables that held a strange taste. Wei Xiao had really failed at being Closes number one hardcore fan; he didnt even know about such a thing. Sure enough, this brat was just greedy for solo games with Close! Lu Feng leaned forward slightly and bit down on Wei Xiaos fork. He ate the celery. Wei Xiaos smile grew even more brilliant, Is it tasty? Lu Feng: Mm. Chen Feng: Bai Cai, whod finished snapping a few photos, confessed honestly, Wei Xiao thinks that my popularity is too low and only wants to be involved in a CP with the captain. He quickly cleared his own name, plucking his clean and white vegetable self out of the situation. Wei Xiao leaned in close to Lu Feng and quickly explained the matter of the Feeding Vegetables CP, then added proudly, The two of us are the real Feeding Vegetables CP! Lu Feng paused for a moment, then spoke to Bai Cai, Send the photos to Xiang Liu. Bai Cai: Ah? Lu Feng said, Take a few more photos and publish a team daily interactions post on the official blog. Chen Feng was rolling his eyes so hard they were about to fly out into the sky. He hadnt spoken, but he didnt need to speak for his words to be understood: Youre spoiling this little brat to death! Wei Xiao was instantly happy, Wonderful. I was just worrying over how to send out these photos! This kind of photo was clearly taken by a teammate, and it definitely couldnt be sent out through the Gossip Emperor. Bai Cais main account couldnt be the one to send it, either. Hed already been cheated on enough and couldnt be cheated on any further. It would also be strange if Wei Xiao sent it out himself, and hed originally wanted to ask Little Ning But it was all good now. Lu Feng had solved the problem for him. FTWs official blog often published some daily snapshots about its team members. Even if theyd never shown something as odd as feeding vegetables, it had published photos of the team doing other things like training, playing sports, or even eating.. However, if this photo was mixed up with some ordinary photos, it should be okay Xiang Liu stared at these photos and comforted himself with that thought. It had to be said that Bai Cais photography skills were very good. These photos were too on point. Wei Xiao was wearing a short sleeved shirt. His arms were pale, his slender fingers held up a fork, and his posture was casual, but it still held the willfulness of youth. The smile hung on the corner of his lips also carried a trace of cynicism. The angle at which hed captured Close was even more amazing. His side profile outlined his perfect jawline and high nose. His drooping eyelids and eyelashes were distinct, and his black eyes stared unblinkingly at Wei Xiao. The little sister in charge of the official blog gazed at the photo for three whole minutes and couldnt help saying, How handsome There was no doubt that the great demon king was still cold and cool, but for some reason, in this photo The little sister was scared by the words that somehow wormed their way into her head! Shed actually felt that Close was alluring! When it came to people who were cold and standoffish all year round, they could seem shockingly sensual even if only a little bit of their collarbone at their neckline peeked out due to them turning their head The little sister in charge of the official blog patted herself on the face and quickly clicked on publish. He was really sinfully handsome. It was just a casually taken photo, yet it was already so attractive. By the time they finished eating, the comments in FTWs official blog had already exploded. The official blog had published a total of four photos. The first one was of Little Ning with hazy eyes when he had just woken up, the second was of Yue Wenle holding three bags of potato chips, the third showed Bai Cai running with headphones on, and the fourth was Wei Xiao and Lu Fengs The fans who looked through the photos experienced this kind of thought process: When they looked at the first photo, oh hey, granny gray was really cute; the second photo, okay, God Les potato chip endorsement time was coming up; the third photo wasnt surprising, Brother Cai tried hard to strengthen his body yet still looked like a weak shou All the way until they flipped to the fourth photo. These two peoples high resolution, sweet interactions instantly washed through the fans brains, leaving only holy shit, holy shit, holy holy shit! in its wake. The Seclusion CP sisters whod gone over the wall to Feeding Vegetables all returned home one after another, holding their banners high, waving their flags, and shouting as they worked to disperse all the other evil cults! What made FTWs female fans even more stunned was that Close, who never logged into Weibo all year round and seemed to have practically forgotten that such an app existed, had logged in. He forwarded the post. How could the sneaky little goblin Wei Xiao miss out on this opportunity to gain some popularity? He forwarded Closes Weibo post and asked, Was it delicious? Close replied, Delicious. In just 10 minutes, three simple Weibo posts that added up to only a few sparse words sparked off essays that added up to tens of thousands of words and tossed the Feeding Vegetables CP all the way out into outer space! Tens of thousands of netizens collectively flew up to the skies. The Seclusion sisters screamed so much they were dizzy from lack of oxygen! Wei Xiao looked at his fan count that was taking off like a rocket and showed off to Bai Cai, See? This is the popularity and traffic flow of top class players! Bai Cai: Wei Xiao looked at the photo of himself and praised Bai Cai, Good shot. Brother Vegetable: Dont ask, if you ask, hed abandon the game and turn into a shadow! After personally directing and involving himself in this event, Wei Xiao tossed this matter to the back of his head. Pushing CPs was just for fun. The proper way to indulge fans was to achieve results. Such a high fan count wasnt only there for the sake of his face. Only when they piled up the championship cups in front of them one by one would they truly be proud! Wei Xiao wouldnt let down all these small fans who were cheering for him. In the afternoon, they didnt draw lots to determine the team formations. Yue Wenle claimed Brother Cai, and Little Ning queued on his own. Ning Zhehan was quite nervous about this. He had confidence in 5v5 teams but was afraid of being matched into a solo game. Once he lost, he would be losing points for the team, and he didnt want to drag the team down. Chen Feng patted him on the shoulder, Dont worry. Its not that easy to encounter solo games. This was due to the game mechanics. Each team held five people, and if players could only single or double queue, then it was bound to be in a 2+2+1 combination. Relatively speaking, the demand for it meant that the demand for single queue players was higher. The system would attempt to avoid solo games and use single queue players to fill the gaps in 5v5 games. Ning Zhehan nodded, Okay! He would try his best to win even if it was a solo game. Wei Xiao sat across from him. After hearing their words, he added, What are you scared of? Little Nings immortal warlock isnt just for show. He killed me three times during solo. Ning Zhehan was stunned. Bai Cai also chimed in, Yeah, its pretty good. Ning Zhehans eyes lit up. Chen Feng was intrigued, When did you play solo games together? Ning Zhehan replied, It was before Brother Xiao joined the team. Chen Feng got it. A training partner. Ning Zhehan instantly regained his self-confidence. Thats right. What was there to be scared of in solo? Hed spent 10,000 yuan on solo that night, and all of his famous heroes had been smeared into the ground. Hadnt he lived through that already? Hed already survived such a disaster. What else was there to be scared of? Besides, the grandmaster even praised his immortal warlock. Speaking of which, during his last game that day, hed actually killed the grandmaster three times with his immortal warlock and had almost turned the tables in that match! Ning Zhehan was charged full of energy and headed bravely towards the single queue! Unfortunately, he didnt encounter a single solo game all afternoon. However, that was something that was only known later. Since Yue Wenle was carrying the vegetable, Wei Xiao could finally pester Lu Feng. When the two of them began matching, Wei Xiao muttered under his breath continuously. Lu Feng was close to him and heard him very clearly. Bai Cai could also hear itCC Wei Xiao: God Kim God Kim God Kim, amitabha, God Kim, come quickly! Indeed. He was calling for Kim Sung-hyun. He wanted to play a doubles match against him and wipe clean his shame even in his dreams. Ding-dong. Wei Xiao matched into a game. He opened his eyes, saw that it was a 5v5 game, and was a little disappointed. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were the first to match into a game. By now, theyd already selected their talents and entered the game. When they saw the IDs on the opposite side Bai Cai & Yue Wenle: F*ck! Wei Xiao was going through the BP process. He looked over, What? Bai Cai wanted to strangle him to death, I f*cking matched up against Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran! Wei Xiao: F*ck! Language was broad and profound. Bai Cai and Yue Wenles f*ck was full of unhappiness and shock, while Wei Xiaos f*ck was full of envy and jealousy. Wei Xiao stuck his head over to take a look, and his eyes almost turned green with envy Red team: Bai Cai, Yue Wenle. Blue team: Kim Sung-hyun, Li Heran. Wei Xiao was super angry, Next time, were going to queue first! Bai Cai was also super angry, Old Yue, lets surrender at 8 minutes! Coach Chen sneered, Surrender, then. Ill deduct 30,000 from each person who surrenders. Bai Cai: Sorry, Old Yue, I wont surrender. Even if you transfer 60,000 to me on the spot, I still wont surrender! Wei Xiaos heart was incredibly itchy, Look, the captain and I just matched into a game too. How about we Switch computers so that everyone could be happy. Chen Fengs eyes shot daggers in his direction. Wei Xiaos words made an abrupt u-turn, Focus on the game and try our best to win 12 points. In FTWs first game, Wei Xiao and Lu Feng dominated the 5v5 game, suppressing the other side until they fled in defeat. Brother Cai and God Le were an ADC and support pair. When going up against Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, it was just like a mouse meeting a cat. Although they didnt surrender at the 8 minute mark, they were only able to hold on until the 18th minute before Kim Sung-hyun pierced through their resurrection crystal with an arrow and sent them out of the game. One double queue team won 6 points, while the other double queue team lost 6 points. FTW remained steady at 0 points. Fortunately, Little Ning performed well and had won a game. In the second round, Brother Cai absolutely refused to be the team room owner. Yue Wenles luck was pretty good after he became the room master, and he no longer matched them up with immortals. They were able to win the next game steadily. In the second game, Wei Xiao and Lu Feng continued with another overwhelming victory, and it was a crushing victory right from the start. The top lane and jungler partnered up and soared, while the other partys top lane towers seemed to be filled with mines. Anyone who went over would die, and even the towers themselves seemed to explode one after another, causing the other teams mental state to collapse! They won four games in a row, but Wei Xiao was a bit unhappy because the wins were too easy. Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran were clearly also double queueing. Why couldnt he and the captain run into them! Wei Xiao thought for a moment, Captain, let me be the room master! It must be that the captains aura was too strong and had scared people away! Lu Feng knew what he was thinking. He transferred over the room ownership. Wei Xiao rubbed his hands, then clicked to start queueing No, wait! The person with the best luck in their team was Brother Cai! It just so happened that Bai Cai had finished a game and was looking over the data in the settlement interface. Wei Xiao immediately spoke up, Brother Cai, come and click for the captain and I. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao urged him, Hurry, I believe in you. Bai Cai got it. Wei Xiao wanted to borrow his bad luck. I Bai Cai was about to refuse. Wei Xiao tempted him, If you can match us up with Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, Ill immediately transfer you 10,000 yuan. Brother Cai: Deal! Bai Cai clicked on the match button, and they entered a game. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up, A doubles game! There was hope. Bai Cai was also startled, This luck Was it really so poisonous? It couldnt really be Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, right?! Wei Xiao rubbed his fists, Captain, what will you use? Lu Feng: Death knight. Wei Xiao: Then, Ill use the shadow thief? Lu Feng: Sure. They locked in their heroes and entered the game. Wei Xiao saw the IDs on the opposite side. Bai Cai: Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were also very curious, Did you really match up against them? The corner of Bai Cais lips were twitching, Old Wei, I think these two are also worth 10,000. Martian text had already popped out from the other side, U 2 double Q? They hadnt matched up with Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, but theyd run into Gary and Yuan Ze instead. Brother Vegetables luck was really the limit. Chapter 64: I just want to mess with you. Wei Xiao had suffered all afternoon, but he was now very excited. He spoke to Bai Cai, Wait. Bai Cai kept having the feeling that what would happen next wouldnt be the money transfer that he wanted. Sure enough Wei Xiao said, If they win, Ill transfer you 20,000. Bai Cai: Could you f*cking act like a person? Why did they have to win for him to make money? Shouldnt he get money if Wei Xiao won?! Wait, Bai Cai felt that hed been led off track. It was Yuan Ze and Gary! Were these two not worth 10,000?! Wei Xiao really did look down on them a bit. After experiencing the worlds number one, he always felt that these other mixed teams were lacking a little something. There was no doubting Yuan Ze and Garys personal strength, but their doubles play In any case, it wasnt in the same class as the Koi team! Kim Sung-hyun would often hold training matches with them, but it was mostly for the sake of feeling out their tactics and getting a grasp on their 5v5 strategies. Of course, having something was better than having nothing. Wei Xiaos spirit was still filled with energy! FTW was the red team. Close used the death knight, and Quiet used the shadow thief. On the blue team, Marshal used the berserker warrior, and Gary used the hidden thief. Death knight & shadow thief vs berserker warrior & hidden thief. There was nothing to be said about this line-up. They just needed to fight! Due to the official blog post that FTW had sent out at noon, many people were stalking their live broadcast feeds. After seeing that Lu Feng and Wei Xiao were double queuing, their feed had attracted countless fans. At first, the CP fans were just happy to enjoy the sugar, but then the technical fans and business fans had all arrived to see the great demon kings top-lane and the little demon kings jungler. They wouldnt have known if they didnt look, but then they were shocked after watching. What was this! 2 against 4, but they just chased after the other side as the four tried to run away, what was going on?! Everyone said that the winter training server was filled with first-class professional players. If they were this crappy, shouldnt they just go back home to farm?! The haters didnt believe that it was because FTWs top lane and jungler who were so strong; they only blamed their opponents for being too weak and not deserving to win. But now, it was great. White Cabbages little hands had clicked the match button and drawn two of the real powerhouses in the league. Last years individual competition runner up, Gary, and his team captain, Yuan Ze. The haters were all excited, Look! FTW is going to show their true face now! I bet Quiet will be chased and hammered by Gary. Im not betting. Its not worth betting on something so obvious. What are you watching Quiet for? Take a look at Close and Marshal, okay? Its the battle of the century between immortals, isnt it interesting?! Interesting, very interesting. It was to the point where many popular anchors stopped queueing for their own games and switched to observation mode to act as temporary commentators. However, it wasnt long before the haters were drawn to Quiet. They all said that they wouldnt watch him, that he wasnt worth watching, and it wasnt interesting, but later It was really damned interesting! What duel of the century? Just look at the little lunatics bravery and resourcefulness as he took over the entire arena! There were four different talents in the canyon, all of which were high DPS with high explosive power. As long as they were developed well, they could all take away someones life with a set of skills. There was no need to mention the shadow thief who could create light arcs by linking up skills; once the nine light arcs dropped down, it could block gods and kill buddhas. The death knights full name was the Knight of Death. It had two forms and eight skills in total. One form was light and agile, and the other dealt heavy damage and control. It could retreat and attack, and its mobility could make the other side all kinds of unhappy. The hidden thief and shadow thief were both talent specs that had high upper limits when it came to maneuvers. Once the hidden thief could create a clone of itself, it would be like fighting one against two. The key point was that opponents couldnt tell which one was the real one. If they didnt play well, they would end up wasting all their skills on the clone. The berserker warrior was a veritable 1v1 daddy. Its ultimate move was like a true one-hit KO. As long as it landed accurately, it didnt matter who the opponent was because theyd then be a corpse lying dead on the ground. Shadow thief vs hidden thief. Death knight vs berserker warrior. Even just from the talent choices, the audience could already smell the shocking stinging scent of gunpowder! And neither side let the audience down. A fierce fight broke out right at the start! In the jungle area, Wei Xiao and Gary started fighting right away. The two of them exchanged attacks even before the first little bear was killed. Gary might be silly and dazed in real life, but he was very clever and alert in the game. His positioning was extremely exquisite, and he was able to deal damage to the little monster and Wei Xiao at the same time. Snatching up jungle monsters was equivalent to farming money. Only by farming could one upgrade and buy equipment. If they were able to get enough money to buy equipment even one second earlier than their opponent, then the damage they dealt would be able to skyrocket and crush the other party! Gary wanted to scare Wei Xiao into retreat and also take advantage of the situation to clear out the jungle. His little abacus made tinny, clacking sounds with his calculations. Unfortunately Wei Xiao, who wasnt short on money in real life, was even more thrifty than Bai Cai when it came to the game. Trying to trick him out of his jungle monster? Dream on! The two of them poked at each other, and the little bear was teased miserably. The hidden thief took it down to half health. Seeing that the little bear was about to topple, the shadow thief charged out and landed a set of damage skills on the hidden thief. The hidden thief was worried that the bear would be snatched away and could only fight back. So, the little bear went back to its cave and healed itself back to full health. The shadow thief was the next one to go and play with it, but when it only had a third of its health left and was about to give up its life, the hidden thief charged out to make trouble. The shadow thief tossed the little bear aside and switched to fight with the hidden thief instead. The live stream commentators: I dont know why, but my heart really aches for that bear. The scrolling comments all expressed one after another, What did the little bear do wrong? Why does it have to be teased like this?! Theyre really worse than beasts! Theyre not even letting off a bear! Please take a look at the lane. I feel that the soldiers from both sides are also very miserable The jungle zone was where the two junglers abused small animals, and in the lane there were two daddies bullying the little soldiers. The soldiers in the canyon were hard working and walked forward steadily day after day, heading constantly towards their death. Today, however, there were many difficulties during their journey. They were either killed before they even stepped out from beneath the tower or they were dragged around with only a sliver of health left and not allowed to die. The so-called killing soldiers meant that players would only receive experience and money when they were the ones to deal the death blow to the soldier. Top-level lane fighting was where players themselves didnt miss a single soldier while also trying to ensure that the other party couldnt get any. This way, the gap in farming experience and money would soon grow, and it would become easy to crush ones opponent. The death knight and berserker warrior in the lane went back and forth. Neither of them had ultimate moves, but they were still able to play out an aura that made it seem like they had thousands of troops behind thim. Neither side was willing to let the other go, and neither was willing to give up any of their soldiers, yet neither side could gain the upper hand. They were about to reach level six. Someone finally spoke out the truth, Its clearly a doubles match. How come it feels like were watching two solo games? Thats right! It was clearly a 2v2 game, but these four people were playing it like a solo match. Lu Feng and Yuan Ze were on par with each other. Wei Xiao and Gary were also at the same level. The situation was at a stalemate, but because there was so much detail involved in the players operations, it made it incredibly interesting to watch. This kind of game where it was completely unclear who would win or lose was the type that made the audience feel the most tense and nervous! Theyre at level six! One temporary commentator spoke up, The four of them reached level six at the same time, amazing! Level six meant that they now had ultimate moves. The four heroes in the arena really let loose. If everything prior was simply small skirmishes, now Wei Xiao spoke to Lu Feng, Captain! Lu Feng: Mm. In fact, even before Wei Xiao had opened his mouth, Lu Feng had already used a movement skill. The death knights original form was far more mobile than that of the berserker warrior. By the time Yuan Ze realized it, it was already too late. Old G, run! Gary was very keen. This man, whod been unwilling to let go of even a small jungle monster just now, immediately entered stealth and used a skill, instantly pulling away from the shadow thief. Wei Xiao chuckled, Got you! The scene that unfolded next shocked the audience into a daze. They lured the tiger away from the mountain! Indeed, the death knights first movement skill seemed like it was about to cooperate with Wei Xiao to attack Gary, but its second movement skill and flash took it straight into the berserker warriors face. Attacking Gary had been a bluff. The real attack was aimed at Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze was stunned and cursed, F*ck! He reacted extremely quickly and used his ultimate move to get rid of the death knights control skill and fight back at the same time. However, the shadow thief was right behind him. After landing a full set of linked skills, eight light arcs exploded over half the canyon. Yuan Zes eyes were wide open as he watched his health drop. He clicked on the heal skill and attempted to use this small amount of health to retreat. But, how could Lu Feng give him this chance? The death knight switched forms and stabbed accurately at the berserker warrior. Even if the berserker warrior was in a berserk state, Yuan Zes small amount of health still wasnt enough to hold up against the death knights attack. Gary, whod fallen into their trap, rushed over, but how could there be any way for him to save his captain? First Blood! Close killed Marshal and took first blood! The audience was high, Beautiful! Theres substance behind this cooperation! I really never thought that my great demon kings acting skills were so outstanding. Not to mention God Yuan. As someone who was watching from Gods perspective, even I believed that they were going to go for Gary. I didnt expect that at all I thought Closes black hole only worked in individual matches. Closes black hole was a nickname that other players had given him, because he was really black hearted and fierce in the individual competitions. He could play around with the other side until they were going around in circles and didnt even know how theyd lost. So, theyd given him a titleCCBlack Hole Close. Previously, theyd never seen him trick others outside of the individual competitions, but now How cool! Some fans couldnt help but think further, If my great demon king can use his black hole in 5v5 If thats the case, then who cares about Y1? The world championships will be ours! Hey, upstairs, you really know how to talk, tell me more! The audience only saw how FTW had taken the lead, but inside the training room, Chen Feng was dazed for a long time. Hed been standing behind Lu Feng ever since the start of the game. Hed been listening to their communication while watching their match. At the start, Wei Xiao had said to Lu Feng, Captain, dont treat me like a person in this game. Chen Feng had just wanted to knock on his little head: What kind of words were those! Then, he heard Wei Xiao continue, Just let loose and fight. Ill cooperate with you. He knew where the problem lay in Lu Fengs doubles competitions. The rhythm would drag if he cooperated with his teammates, but if he didnt cooperate with his teammate, they would also fall behind. That was why it was difficult for him to win in a doubles game against strong teams. Wei Xiao didnt want Lu Feng to wait for him; he would catch up to him on his own. That was why he told him not to treat him like a person. Lu Fengs lips curved. He asked back, Want to win? Wei Xiao: Of course! Lu Feng: Lets act out a play. Wei Xiaoxiaos ears perked up, Eh? Lu Feng spoke slowly, Like this As everyone knew, Lu Fengs specialty was solo, and Wei Xiaos favorite was also solo. Solo was almost synonymous with the two of them, especially for those who were familiar with them. For example, Yuan Ze and Gary. At the start of the match, theyd separated to face their opponents and turned a proper doubles match into two solo games. Wei Xiao and Lu Feng had done this intentionally. In order to give Yuan Ze and Gary an illusion. How cool was it to fight alone? What kind of teammate support did they need? When the time came, the two of them, who had seemed to have agreed to fight individually, made a feint, scared Gary away, and besieged Yuan Ze! Inside the L&P training room. Old G was grumpy, They tricked me! Yuan Ze had a cigarette in his mouth. Although hed been tricked, there was a smile hanging on his lips, Soulmates, hey. Gary: ??? Dont use the fact that his Chinese wasnt good to bully him; these words were clearly used for lovers! Yuan Ze put out the mostly finished cigarette in the ashtray and grew serious, Ill take Little Quiet. Gary: ! Yuan Ze stared at the unreserved, willful crimson shadow thief on the screen and said, Dont you want to solo with Close? Gary: But He was even more interested in finding Quiet and getting even! Yuan Ze narrowed his eyes, Ill teach you another idiom. Old G: Ah? Yuan Ze resurrected. After switching forms, he shot his blade towards the two people on the opposing side. His voice rang full of excitement amidst the attacks, Beating up mandarin ducks. xiin: Yuan Ze is so grumpy Chapter 65: Beating up mandarin ducks Beating what? Old Gs Chinese only allowed him to understand the first half, and he couldnt understand the rest. Since it involved beating something up, then, Okay! Lets beat up mandarin ducks! Fortunately, the L&P translator wasnt there. Otherwise, theyd probably slip by accident and fall flat on their face. Yuan Ze didnt say anything else after this sentence. He stared at the screen, and his black earring flashed in the light. The shadow thief was really amusing. Shadow thieves that were played well were really the most fun. Although Close had taken a kill, and FTW now had a small advantage, the tides shifted again when Yuan Zes berserker warrior returned to the battlefield. He used his ultimate move in the lane, and his heros physique enlarged by two sizes in its frenzy mode. It wore heavy armor and had a bloody long sword that could leave a long gouge in the ground; the sword emitted smoke with every basic attack. This was a berserker warriors passive ability. After their ultimate move was used, their basic attacks would receive an attack bonus. The blade split apart the death knight and shadow thief on the other side, forcing them to dodge to the side. They were no longer so close together. Gary: Go! The hidden thief created a clone, and both figures charged at the death knight whod dodged to the left at the same time. Close wasnt anxious, and he switched to his agile form, using the movement speed bonus to avoid two attacks. Old G didnt think that hed be able to hit him either. He just wanted to keep him busy! Close saw through his intentions and spoke into his headset, Watch out for Yuan Ze. Wei Xiao: Got it. The shadow thief was much more flexible than the berserker warrior was. Wei Xiao went ahead and stepped into the bushes, evading the berserker warriors attack before lying in wait for an opportunity to attack. Yuan Zes thin lips curved up slightly, and he manipulated the berserker warrior into the jungle zone. The situation had changed dramatically! The audience watching the game were so nervous that they were staring intently at the screen. Originally, it had been top-lane against top-lane, jungler against jungler, but now, theyd switched positions! Gary was caught up with Close. Yuan Ze had focused on Quiet! In Glorys general profession restraint, warriors and knights had a natural advantage over thieves. Although different talent specs had different countering effects, the death knight and berserker warrior could both suppress the squishy shadow thief and hidden thief and smear them into the ground. In a situation where their farmed experience and money were the same, the shadow thief and hidden thief wouldnt be able to gain the upper hand against them. However, both of them were able to hold on! Regardless of whether it was Gary or Wei Xiao, both of them were still stable despite their natural disadvantages! This doubles game was once again split into two solo games, but the situation was now quite different. Gary was very worthy of having come second place in the singles competition. His personal strength was beyond doubt, and he was one of the few top class players who could counter Close. He used the weaker hidden thief and faced off against Closes death knight, but it wasnt in vain, and he wasnt flustered at all. He created clones that could practically fly up to heaven, and even the audience that had gods perspective couldnt tell which was the real one and which one was the clone. Closes death knight was even more godly. He very rarely used this kind of top-lane hero in 5v5 games, but as the king of solo, he had to have mastered this kind of solo talent spec. There was no doubt that he used it very well. He switched seamlessly between the two forms and linked up the eight skills into an infinite series of combinations, dazzling the audience and causing them to exclaim, Is this hand speed even possible?! The fight on that side was fierce and heated, and the jungle zone was also very thrilling. At first, fans thought that Quiet was a weak spot that could easily be taken down by Yuan Ze. After that, Yuan Ze could pair up with Old G to kill off Close. What surprised them was that Quiet didnt lose out at all. Under the daddy berserker warriors suppression, his shadow thief was still having a good time and stirring up the winds and water. The berserker warrior nickname was the ten second real man. It was a little weak after its ultimate move ended. Wei Xiao seized this opportunity to deal out a crazy amount of damage and wore down two thirds of Yuan Zes health. Yuan Zes health bar showed that his health was in a seriously injured state, but Yuan Ze had no intentions of going back to recover at all. He locked in on the full health shadow thief like an old father who was playing with a child, kind and gentle The next second. The berserker warrior transformed, armor covering its body. It stabbed straight at the shadow thief! The temporary commentators in the live broadcast room exclaimed, What an accurate grasp of timing! What old father, what kind and gentle, what playing All of that was bullshit! The frenzied berserker warrior was just like a war god. Every attack attempted to cut apart the sky and cover the earth! This daddy was a real daddy. One attack could stab people to death. Wei Xiao had calculated the time for Yuan Zes ultimate move and had already been ready to retreat, but he hadnt expected that Yuan Ze would be so fierce and didnt even leave a 0.01 second delay. He linked up his ultimate move with a basic attack, executing all of it within an instant and aiming it at the invisible shadow thief. Wei Xiao used a movement skill to avoid the main attack, but he couldnt escape the blade that swept over. He was at full health. Reasonably speaking, he shouldnt die. However Wei Xiao felt the same sense of uncertainty he felt when he played solo games against the captain. F*ck! There was poison. When did Old Bandit Yuan get it! Wei Xiaos consciousness could keep up, but there was no way for the shadow thief to escape. The berserker warriors blade swept over. It could empty out the shadow thiefs health at any second, but as Wei Xiao had expected, he was still left with a tiny sliver of health. However, the poison dealt continuous damage, and it only needed to tick once before the screen in front of him turned dark. Quiet had been killed by Marshal! It was really damned sinister. Wei Xiao inhaled lightly. His hand was itchy: Yuan Zewas really worthy of being someone from the Team of Gods, how awesome. On the other side, Lu Feng had also killed Gary. Although Old G died, hed managed to gain enough time for Yuan Ze. After killing Wei Xiao, Yuan Ze didnt immediately go up to attack Close. Instead, he swept through the lower jungle area and forcibly snatched away a pile of resources, making up for the farming hed lost out on due to his death. The resurrection time was short in the early stages of the game. Wei Xiao soon returned back to the battlefield. Lu Feng: Hand it over to me. Wei Xiao: Let me try again. Lu Feng glanced at him from the side and said, Mm. Chen Feng, who was standing behind them, gripped his notebook tightly. Letting Wei Xiao fight against Yuan Ze was great. Even if they lost this doubles match, FTW would still have earned big. Yuan Ze practically represented the ceiling of the top-lane position in Glory. If Wei Xiao could use a thief and survive under his hands, it meant that nobody would be able to suppress his thief. How crazy could a jungler player who nobody could suppress be? Just look at last years world champion Y1 as an example. The audience watching the fight were also very excited, Can any big god explain for us? When did God Yuan obtain the poison? Although they were watching from the gods perspective, the audience might end up ignoring some details when they focused on a particular hero. Yuan Ze had managed to obtain poison during a time when even the audience wasnt paying attention. How deep his schemes were could be seen from this point alone. Poison was a state. Some jungle monsters would provide gold and experience, while others provided buffs. Poison was one of those buffs. Once the poison jungle monster was killed, the player would get the poison buff. There was a time limit on the poison, and it could only be used once. Yuan Ze played like a kind and gentle old father, and it seemed as though he was hiding from the shadow thiefs attacks, losing two thirds of his health along the way. It seemed as though he wasnt doing anything In fact, hed been acting the whole damned time! Lu Feng and Wei Xiao had collectively pulled an act on Old Dog Yuan, so hed turned around and done the same to Wei Xiaoxiao. After listening to the explanation, the audience sighed deeply, Amazing. God Yuan is a film emperor whose career has been delayed by e-sports! At the start, Lu Feng and Wei Xiao had deliberately split up and played the doubles game like solo matches, stabbing Yuan Ze with a knife and sending him back home. However, they actually planned to play doubles and not have two solo games in the doubles. Yuan Ze was really tricky. Hed caught onto this point and started to split up the doubles competition. You dont want to solo? Ill force you to solo. You want to cooperate? Have you asked the blade in my hand for permission? Yuan Zes previous beating up mandarin ducks wasnt a joke. He performed his duty perfectly and definitely wouldnt allow this pair of mandarin ducks to get together. This was extremely detrimental to FTW. Joking and messing around aside, in terms of current comprehensive strength, Gary was stronger than Wei Xiao. Without evaluating their talent specs and simply basing it on experience, the difference between the two of them was more than just a small amount. With Close as a comparison point, if Wei Xiao soloed against him, he had a win rate of 30%. For Gary, it was 40%, and with certain heroes, it might even be 50-60%! This gap was directly related to why Gary could hold down Close while Wei Xiao was gradually getting beaten down by Yuan Ze. The berserker warrior had a natural advantage against the shadow thief. Yuan Zes comprehensive experience was also superior to Wei Xiaos. In this doubles game, FTW was done for. Everyone thought this way, including Chen Feng who was focused on watching the game. He wasnt worried about losing, and he even hoped that Wei Xiao would lose. This kid had a very strong temperament. Letting him lose might be even more exciting. It was just Everyone felt that FTW would lose, but the two people in the arena didnt seem to think so! What was this conclusion based on? Were they going to lose just because their opponent was strong? Or because theyd been suppressed? Or were they going to lose because the situation was one-sided? Impossible! Wei Xiao might not know how it was for anyone else, but in any case, he didnt have the word lose in his brain at all! Hed died three times. Due to the berserker warriors control skill, the shadow thief had no way to link up its skills, and a shadow thief who couldnt link up its skills couldnt use its light arcs. His main damage dealing skill had been targeted, and Wei Xiao was really feeling uncomfortable. Wei Xiao suddenly said, Captain, can you help me get an immunity buff? Immunity and poison were the same. They were buffs that could be gained from jungle monsters, and after obtaining it and using it at the right time, a player could avoid control skills for two seconds. Wei Xiao wanted those two seconds of immunity to avoid the berserker warriors control skill and stack up the shadow thiefs linked skills. He wanted to fight back! The Chen Feng whod heard their conversation practically blurted the words out without thinking, No way! It was too impulsive. The game had already dragged on for 20 minutes. The later it went, the longer the resurrection time after death would be. Wei Xiao definitely couldnt die again. If he fell, then Yuan Ze and Gary would be able to push all the way to their resurrection crystal in one go! At the moment, their only hope was to play steadily and find a chance to break through and attack Old G Lu Feng: Come. Chen Feng: He was really going to help him get the immunity buff! So what if he got it? Even if it was Closes shadow thief, it also wouldnt be possible to kill Yuan Ze based on the difference in their farming. Alright, fine. Mother Hen Chen wasnt going to worry about itCCit was just a free matching game, and it didnt matter if they lost. They could let loose and play around! Yuan Ze was very vigilant. Although hed been suppressing Wei Xiao the whole time, he hadnt taken the situation lightly for a single second. For a full 20 minutes, on the surface it seemed that Yuan Ze was more than equal to the task, manipulating the berserker warrior like a buddha that was pressing down on Quiets little head. But in fact, only he knew how difficult it had been for him over these past 20 minutes. Just a little bit of carelessness, and this little monkey would jump up and bite him. Yuan Ze didnt doubt that Wei Xiao wanted to fight back. This kid hadnt settled down for even half a second. However, it was really interesting. Yuan Ze really hoped that this match could last for another 20 minutes. Due to his vigilance, hed always paid attention to Wei Xiaos state. If the shadow thief wanted to fight back, he definitely needed the immunity buff. Yuan Ze wouldnt give Wei Xiao the chance to touch the immunity buff jungle monster. Wei Xiao also didnt try to enter the jungle area. He didnt even show any intention of heading there, continuing to fight against Yuan Ze and trade skills and attacks. He seemed very invested. Until Old G called out, Close is fighting the immunity monster. Yuan Ze was surprised, F*ck! In that instant, Wei Xiao used up two displacement skills and a flash. He flew over a distance of 800 meters and arrived near Close before Old G could rush over. As a maniac at controlling health volumes, Close had controlled the health of the jungle monster to extreme levels. Wei Xiao didnt need to waste a single bit of his energy levels and could directly use an auto attack to obtain the immunity buff. Gary was too close to them. In order to open up the field of vision for his team, hed exposed himself and couldnt run. Yuan Ze rushed over. He definitely couldnt let Wei Xiao kill Old G. As soon as Old G died, this game would Wei Xiao was actually waiting for Yuan Ze to rush over. Kill Old G? That was too unambitious. The shadow thief that had been suppressed for 20 minutes was like a streak of crimson as it rushed over. Both of the attacks from its first skill landed on the berserker warrior, followed by a basic attack and the third skill Yuan Ze reacted extremely quickly and had already started up his ultimate move, charging straight towards Wei Xiaos face. Wei Xiao didnt retreat at all. After activating the immunity buff, he continued to use the small soldiers to link up his moves. In the training room, Chen Feng sucked in a breath while watching this scene. Wei Xiaos hands were very good looking. They were slender like a piano players, and they moved over the keyboard as fast as streaks of light, flashes of sharp, sword-like light. One second, two seconds. The shadow thiefs energy reserve was filled up, and the light arcs exploded over half the screen. Based on the energy the shadow thief had accumulated, there was no doubt that hed brushed out eight light arcs! The Red Sky Blades crimson cape was flying in the air, and the shadow thief within it was cold and merciless. There were only the brilliant light arcs that covered the sky, taking away the enemys blood and life! At the moment of death, the berserker warrior was able to land a hit on the shadow thief. However, Wei Xiao had already killed Yuan Ze! The two of them died together! What was even more deadly was that the shadow thiefs light arcs had also swept over Old G. At this time, he was only left with half of his health. The death knight who hefted up its blade and rushed over was a real death knight. CCA knight that gave death to its enemies. Victory! Close ended the game. After exiting the game, Yuan Ze was still staring at the screen. Gary yelled out ruefully, Damn it! He turned his head to look at his own captain and froze. This scene was even more shocking to Old G than losing the game. The scarlet Defeat that flashed on the screen was reflected in Yuan Zes eyes. It was as though a black flame was burning. It was the long lost enthusiasm that had now been thoroughly ignited! Chapter 66: The captain is the best! Gary: Captain Yuan Ze: Im going to go smoke. He picked up the lighter on the table and walked out of the training room. There was an observation platform at the end of the corridor. The afterglow from the setting sun was a haze over the blue sea water, like fire on a cold field of snow, burning up the sea and sky. Yuan Ze lit his cigarette. The flame turned into smoke, but his palm felt extremely hot. He inhaled a heavy puff of the cigarette and then looked down at his palm through the smoke from his exhale. His palm was empty, holding thin calluses from countless matches played over the years. Training games, the regular season, playoffs, domestic finals, global shortlist, global elimination matches, global finals. Countless matches, countless games, countless victories and defeats Hed thought that hed gotten used to it, adapted to it, and was now numb to it all. Now, in a simple doubles game, a fire had ignited in his palm. He wanted to win, wanted to win the game. He wanted to defeat that wild and arrogant little bastard! Yuan Ze spat out a ring of smoke and calmed down his restless heart. He was starting to look forward to this years global competition. Really looking forward to it. When he got back to the training room, Yuan Ze immediately pulled out his chair and sat down, Old G, lets score. Garys eyes lit up, Well play with FTW tonight? Yuan Ze: Yes. They would obtain first place in the scoreboard. He wanted to teach this little friend a lesson in the 5v5 team competition. FTW had won against L&P. This news exploded over the internet. The melon seed eating crowd who didnt know what had happened all asked, Whats the situation? The domestic competition hasnt even started yet, so why has the international competition started up ahead of time? L&P? Last years world runner up? Are you FTW fans crazy and daydreaming in broad daylight? Thats not right, at this hour, the points competition hasnt even started yet in the training camp. What win are you guys talking about. The fans who were spiraling up into the sky immediately started to push and sell enthusiastically: Dont walk by, dont pass by, dont miss out, Close and Quiets doubles match is worth watching! The great demon king and little demon kings wonderful counter attack, overturning a desperate situation, I could watch it ten thousand times! Quiet career fan reporting in. Forget the CP; Quiet, fight hard for mama and hammer Old Dog Yuan to death! It was a free match game, a game that held no incentives or rewards, as common as an entertainment game between players. However, due to the wonderful plays that the four people involved had made, the audiences senses were fully ignited. There were many senior analysis emperors in the Glory circle, and one of the most famous ones was Brother Fang. Brother Fang lived up to his name. He had a way with words, he was a professional critic, and his commentary in his replay videos could easily flame players into space and out of the solar system. Brother Fang, who had such a serious commitment to making all contestants enter seclusion, sent out an analysis video. He was objective and calm all the way until the last wave of operations in the doubles match. Did you think that the shadow thief merely used the immunity buff to link up his moves and charge up light arcs to kill Old Dog Yuan? Wrong! Closes hidden maneuvering and operations also factor in here, as well as Quiets desperate move. Their lives are tied together with a thread, and they have absolute trust in each other! Feel it for yourselves, experience it in detail. Closes timing in entering the jungle, the control over the damage dealt by his skills, the manipulation of that last bit of health on the monster. Even a computer cant calculate as accurately as he did! Go on, keep watching it, look at Quiets movements and flash. Moving one second earlier would have alarmed Old Dog Yuan, but he would have missed out on the immune monster if he was one second later. The shadow thiefs margin of error was less than 0.01 seconds! I know that someones going to start flaming with stuff like: isnt this a normal level of operations for a professional player? F*ck your mothers normal operations; take a look at the situation, the poor farming, and the one-sided competition. Its precisely in this certain loss situation that Quiet, a newcomer, dared to rush up and counter kill Old Dog Yuan, and he even succeeded! Oh, but youre going to say that its just a free match, and it doesnt matter if they lose. Why dont you say it another way? As youve said, its a free match, and you only get six points if you win, and losing doesnt hurt, but Quiet has been trying his best to win from the first second all the way to the last second of the game. Do you f*cking have the same kind of serious attitude? I know what else youre going to say: Brother Fang, how much money did you charge FTW to blow out such fragrant rainbow farts? I wont lie, your Daddy Fang actually wants to pay out money instead. Laozi has long been interested in FTWs new jungler, Laozi wants him to accompany Close to win the championship, and Laozi believes that he can realize FTWs world championship dream! Brother Fang was a well-known critic in the Glory circle, and he was very influential. As soon as these harsh words were released, FTW was pushed all the way to the top of the storm. The haters were all going crazy launching attacks. The old fans had all burst out into tears. The rational fans were very confused, About that, we havent even had the qualifiers in the domestic competition, so isnt it too early to discuss whether or not we can win the world cup! If they ended up with another round trip home, wouldnt it be so shameful that theyd have to toss their dignity into the Pacific Ocean! On FTWs side, Xiang Lius phone was about to explode from all the calls from golden-thighed investors. Every club had a team who was responsible for marketing, and FTWs PR department had always been very Buddhist-like in styleCC Advertising? No thanks, no thanks. Water army? No need, no need. Fan control? Forget it, forget it. But todayCC Xiang Liu explained over and over, We didnt buy any marketing! Even if they were to pay for advertising, they wouldnt have bought a thoroughly blackened hater like Brother Fang! We didnt buy the hot search! F*ck it, he actually wanted to spend money to remove the hot search! We didnt buy a water army! What water, what army? Wasnt the current situation already chaotic enough?! The golden thighed investors were also very sorry to hear this; theyd actually thought that FTW had been reformed and had begun to market themselves seriously. Xiang Lius tongue was dry from all the explaining he had to do. He had already had a hunch that signing Wei Xiao into FTW might usher in a new bloody storm, but he hadnt expected that it would happen so soon! It was just training, couldnt these ancestors just stop for a while? Our FTW really isnt short on money, were just short on a world championship cup. No matter what it was like outside, the atmosphere in FTWs training room was a little strange. Lu Fang and Wei Xiao had won, but Bai Cai was really unhappy. The 20,000 yuan that had almost landed in his hands had just flown away like that? He asked tentatively, Brother Xiao, look at how you really enjoyed yourself while playing. How about 10,000 yuan was acceptable too if the 20,000 was really gone. Wei Xiao turned to stare at him, Enjoyed myself? Brother Cai blinked, No? Wei Xiaos tone was unhappy, Old Dog Yuan was taking it easy! Bai Cai: ??? The entire internet had already praised you up to heaven, yet youre saying that Yuan Ze was taking it easy on you? Wei Xiao ignored Brother Cai and turned to Lu Feng, Captain, is he looking down on me! His tone was a little aggrieved and tickled the tip of Lu Fengs heart, making it itchy, Mm. The dog wasnt acting like a man. Chen Feng: Wei Xiao found someone to comfort him and felt better, Exactly! Old Dog Yuan isnt a man! In the last exchange of attacks in the game, Lu Feng and Wei Xiao had cooperated perfectly. Just like how Brother Fang had analyzed; theyd fought for every maneuver, calculated all the damage and skills, precisely grasped the timing and positioning, and dealt out the highest amount of damage they could with their perfect cooperation. However It wasnt to the point where Yuan Ze would fall. It was hard for a layman to understand this, but it could be sensed by an expert. In particular, Wei Xiao, who was in the game, whod been crushed by Yuan Ze for a full 20 minutes, had a very keen understanding of this mans strength. There was no resurrection or blood equipment, but Yuan Zes berserker warrior still had a chance to trigger his passive ability that would allow him to avoid injury. The conditions for triggering this passive ability were harsh, and for ordinary players, if the shadow thief rushed up with a series of moves, theyd be unable to react in time. However, the player behind the berserker warrior was Yuan Ze! Yuan Ze had won the Global MVP in 2018 with the berserker warrior! Wei Xiao was so angry he could die, No wonder he doesnt use his own champion skin. Hes too ashamed to use it! Global MVPs had their own champion skins, just like how Lu Fengs shadow thief had the Red Sky Blade exclusive skin. Yuan Ze had his own berserker warrior skin. It was just that he hadnt used it during this match. Chen Feng couldnt help saying, He can also make mistakes. Wei Xiao clung to his convictions, Its because he subconsciously believed that the captain and I couldnt win. Chen Feng: F*ck, how can you even say that someone else wasnt acting like a man? Youve just won against the second place team in the world, and youre still angry. Arent you the one not being a man! And yet, there was someone who actually coaxed him. Lu Feng: Continue queueing first. Ill accompany you to solo before dinner. Wei Xiaos expression was full of surprise, Really? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiaos heart was super itchy, Youll use the berserker warrior? Lu Fengs lips curved, Yes. Wei Xiao was excited, Okay! For the matches that came after, Caicai, who hadnt been able to get any money, refused to help them click the matching button. The demon king teams demonic aura was too heavy, and they steamrolled the remaining three games they played together without suspense. The free matching ended, and the rankings for the day appeared on the scoreboard. 1st place: L&P. 2nd place: Black Knights. 3rd place: Pro. The entire training camp was in an uproar, what happened to Pro? Why had they dropped to third place! Was the Black Knights team so amazing? They actually suppressed Pro?! It was unknown if the Black Knights team was amazing or not, but they were definitely confused. They hadnt done anything theyd simply lay there and ended up second. In the second half of the days games, L&Ps luck had pushed the limits. Yuan Ze and Old G had run into Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran in a 5v5 game. Three people from the Black Knights team had been Yuan Zes teammates. Theyd witnessed with their own eyes what it meant to abuse a proud flower. Yuan Ze took the death knight, Old G took the shadow thief, and these two players latched onto Proud Flower Kim like mad dogs. Kim Sung-hyuns luck was really bad. Hed matched up with an unknown team from a mediocre competition zone, and his teammates were so bad that it made people feel suffocated. No matter how tacit the cooperation between the koi combination was, it was unable to stop these two beasts who seemed to have been injected with chicken blood! Kim Sung-hyun never wasted time typing during a match, but in this game, he even went so far as to knock out a line of text in Chinese, Old Shit, did you take a f*cking aphrodisiac or something? Yuan Ze: Call me Old Teacher. Kim Sung-hyun: F*ck! There was no suspense in this game. Yuan Ze and Old G scored 6 points, and the Black Knights 2+1 combination took 9 points. After that, likely because they all clicked to queue at the same time, the Black Knights 2+1 combination ended up in the same team as Yuan Ze and Old G once again! The opposite side wasnt Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran anymore, but it was still Pros starters: their mid-lane and jungler. This time, Yuan Ze changed heroes and used a berserker warrior, and he even used his own champion skin. Old G took the berserker thief, and this double berserker combination was a famous killing combination in the canyon. These two exploded and attacked like crazy, smashing Pros mid-laner and jungler into pieces. Pros mid-laner was dumbfounded, Bro, what kind of provocation did Marshal receive? Kim Sung-hyun was very polite, Hes probably brokenhearted. That motherf*cking Old Bandit Yuan, hed hammered their Pro into third place! Who wouldve dared to think that the Black Knights, whod originally been in 5th place, had taken advantage of their small bit of luck to make it all the way up to second place?! The Black Knights whod been beaten up for two days became proud and self-satisfied just like this. Theyd also never thought that this would happen! The audience had already started to cheer in advance when they saw the scoreboard. There would be something good to watch that night! L&P would definitely choose FTW! Wei Xiao invited Lu Feng into a game room almost as soon as free matching ended. To hell with eating dinner. Was it as attractive as soloing? The other people in FTW also werent in a hurry to have dinner, and they all crowded around to watch the fun. Lu Feng took the berserker warrior and Wei Xiao used the shadow thief. This was recreating the fight between Yuan Ze and Wei Xiao during the doubles game. Just like Wei Xiao had said, in the last wave, Yuan Ze hadnt played to the best of his abilities. When the shadow thiefs eight light arcs smashed into his face, the berserker warrior did have a way to survive. For example, at this time, Lu Feng perfectly reproduced Yuan Zes actions, and at the same time, he triggered the damage immunity passive skill at the last moment. The lower the remaining health was, the higher the damage immunity would be. The berserker warrior who had less than 100 health points left could actually hold on! Lu Feng wielded his blade lightly and took away the life of the shadow thief whod fallen back down from the sky. Wei Xiao turned his head swiftly and looked at Chen Feng, Look, the captain wouldnt make mistakes. Chen Feng: Wei Xiao turned his head excitedly and spoke to Lu Feng, Sure enough, the captain is the best! Lu Feng took advantage of this opportunity and asked, The best? Wei Xiao didnt hesitate at all, 10,000 times better than Yuan Ze! Lu Feng was satisfied and stood up, Lets go. Dinner. Wei Xiao hurriedly followed behind him, Captain, do you want to be 100,000 times better than Yuan Ze? Lu Feng glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. Wei Xiao was really a clever little brat, If we have another solo game, youll be 100,000 times better than him, if its two games youll be 1,000,000 times better, with three games Lu Feng laughed, Thats no good. Wei Xiao: ??? Did the problem lie with using Yuan Ze as a unit of measurement? A heart is the size of a fist. Can it all fit? Lu Feng felt that he couldnt hold the enormity of Wei Xiaos best. Chapter 67: Wei Xiao: Hey, I care about the captain the most Wei Xiao obviously didnt understand what the captain was thinking, and he had a confused expression on his face.Why wont it fit? He couldnt accept it, My heart is really big! It could hold such a wonderful captain! Lu Feng: I cant fit it all in. Wei Xiao was all confused, What cant the captain fit in? Chen Feng, who was to the side, Little Lunatic Wei, I despise you for being like a block of wood! Inspiration flashed in Wei Xiaos brain, and he realized, Holy shit! He startled Chen Feng; had this kid actually gotten it? On the other hand, Lu Feng was very calm, Hm? Wei Xiao leaned close to him and smiled like a bandit, It turns out that youre scared to hear me praise you? Chen Feng: . Isnt it just saying that youre tens of thousands of times better than Yuan Ze? Is that already too much? Wei Xiaos mouth was really invincible, That shouldnt be the case; I blow rainbow farts every day, captain, are you actually not used to it? Could it be that I dont blow them out well enough? Is it that Im not professional enough? Let me go look into it some more and try to blow out a wave of praises before bed every night Lu Feng: Wei Xiao. Wei Xiaos eyes were curved as he looked at him, Hm? Lu Feng tilted his head and stared at him. Wei Xiao looked at him with wide eyes. Lu Feng: Shut up. Wei Xiao: Kay. To tell the truth, in the moment when the two of them looked at each other, Chen Fengs heart had almost jumped out of his chest! Hed thought that Lu Feng wouldnt be able to hold back anymore and wanted to block this block of woods mouth! Yet he was still f*cking able to hold on through this Coach Chen was full of admiration. He admired Close in various senses of the word. He was really worthy of being the man whod purchased FTW at the age of 18, someone whod made it to the present day while shouldering such great pressure. Fierce, he was really fierce! Dinner was relatively short and hasty. Chen Feng had something on his mind and took advantage of this opportunity to pull Bai Cai, Ning Zhehan, and Yue Wenle to the side. There was no suspense about the fact that L&P would invite FTW for a game in the points competition that evening. Chen Feng wasnt worried about Wei Xiao at all. Just based on how he disdained Yuan Ze, hed probably be more happy the more seriously Yuan Ze played, and winning or losing came second to him. However, not everyone was like the great and little demon kings. There were also normal people in the team. Chen Feng was grave and earnest, Are you all mentally prepared for the training match this evening? Bai Cai was really worthy of his last name Bai. He was very quick to raise up a small white flag, The odds are against us. Chen Feng rolled his eyes, Nonsense. Chen Feng wasnt that worried about Brother Cai. This guy had been hanging out with Wei Xiao for such a long time that his heart was actually quite steady. Otherwise, he wouldnt have been able to muddle along the way he had beside the great demon king. It had to be known that FTWs previous support player would cry every time after a game was over because he couldnt keep up with Lu Feng at all, and Chen Feng didnt even dare to go over the replays with him. Now that Wei Xiao had joined the team, Bai Cai knew that he had to work hard, and in general, he could now rest assured. Chen Feng was most worried about Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle. Although Old Yue had won a domestic championship, he had many problems, particularly when it came to his mentality. It was very strange. Ordinary people would become timid and cautious after they were suppressed and wouldnt be able to play effectively; but for Old Yue, the more he was hammered, the more passionate he would get, like a moth drawn to the flame. He would disregard everything and insist on charging up without a single lick of sense. Chen Feng had always used to wonder where this strange problem had originated from. Ever since hed learned of Wei Xiaos identity as the Grandmaster, he understoodCC Yue Wenle had experienced the beatings of society ahead of time, and hed gone against it! The most normal person in the team was Little Ning, but he was also the most worrying one. Hed joined the team late and hadnt been trained by the Grandmaster. As a rookie king, Ning Zhehans play and consciousness were both excellent, but his mentality and experience was a little lacking. Experience was something that couldnt be rushed and could only be slowly ground out; however, mentality was something that Chen Feng had to take care of as part of his duty as a coach. The words he spoke today were mainly directed at Ning Zhehan: In tonights game, Yuan Ze will be playing very seriously. Ning Zhehan looked a little awed and dazed, but he nodded, I will try my best! Hed try hard not to drag the team down. Chen Feng shook his head. This wasnt a matter of working hard or not. How terrifying was a Yuan Ze who was going all out? There was probably nobody in the entire China competition zone whod experienced it before. Closes ability to suppress others was very strong, but FTW hadnt had any teammates who were able to match up to him. Therefore, in 5v5 games, most people only felt that it was hard to deal with him, but there was still a chance to win. Yuan Ze was different. L&P was a team that was practically tailor-made for him. From Old G to the new support whod joined the team last year, L&P was a very good fit with him and wouldnt tie him down at all. L&P had also been very well broken in. Although theyd failed to win the championship last year, theyd given a brilliant performance in the finals. Previously, FTW had managed to arrange a few training matches with them, but in reality, that had all just been for fun. Either Yuan Ze didnt play, or their mid-laner was from their second team, or their marksman was practicing a hero. It was only Gary who wasnt absent every time, because he wanted to go up against Close. He was very serious every match. However, Gary was suppressed by Close, and the randomly gathered L&P team couldnt play at even 50% of their usual level. Even if it was like this, the win rate was still 50-50, which was enough to show how big the gap was between the two teams. So, Chen Feng was very worried. He wasnt afraid of losing the game, but he was afraid that the childrens mentalities would collapse. As Yuan Zes former teammate, Chen Feng had a pretty good understanding of him. This dog had definitely been stimulated. L&Ps state tonight was no worse than it had been during the global finals last year. Chen Feng comforted them, Its just a training match. Do the best you can, and thats enough. Ning Zhehan was still unaware of what he was about to go up against. He nodded and said, Okay! Chen Feng had done what he could, and the rest wasnt something that could be resolved just by talking. Theyd just have to face it head on. There was still a Little Lunatic Wei in the team, and encountering bloody weather in the future was going to become a common occurance anyway. They went back to the dinner table and saw Wei Xiao still working hard. Chen Feng was puzzled, What are you doing? Wei Xiao explained seriously, Picking out dishes for the captain. Chen Feng: ??? Bai Cais lips twitched when he heard this. Wei Xiao very carefully selected a plate of celery and pushed it over to Lu Feng, Captain, you can eat this. Life was too difficult. The dishes here tended to use celery as a side dish, so in order for the team captain to enjoy dinner, it had taken Wei Xiao a lot of effort to pick out so many pieces of celery. A certain Chen and a certain Bai who were familiar with the truth of the matter looked at the plate of celery, Wei Xiao set down his chopsticks and couldnt help but show off, Hey, I really care for the captain the most. Chen Feng & Bai Cai: You should f*cking just forget about it! What made them even more amazed was that Lu Feng actually accepted this plate of celery, Youve worked hard. And then, he really ate it! Wei Xiao: Its not a big deal. Ill ask the chef tomorrow and see if hell be willing to just fry up a plate of celery. Even the great demon king, who was usually very calm, could feel his hand holding the fork tremble, Theres really no need to bother. Wei Xiao: Its not a bother. Food is the most important thing. Captain, only when you eat your fill will you be able to play with me um, I mean, only then will you have the strength to play in competitions! Chen Feng: . Chen Feng was too lazy to sympathize with him: Indulge him, come on, continue to work hard and indulge him to death! The (presumably) well-fed FTW all headed over to the event hall. After a few words from the commentators, the host announced todays match teams. The 1st place L&P chose first, and when the three letters FTW appeared on the large screen, there were cheers from the audience. Everyone was both surprised and not surprised. After all, ever since the start of the training camp, FTW had already brought them too many surprises. Finally, this old team that had been reborn was about to usher in a bloody battle. Close against Marshal. They were both from the old Team of Gods, teammates whod fought side by side, and brothers whod trusted their backs to each other. They now stood at opposite ends of the canyon and had become mortal opponents. What made it more exciting for the audience was that Close had switched from playing the jungler position to the top lane, and Yuan Ze was the strongest top-laner in the Glory circle. The match between the strong hadnt started yet, but everyones blood was already boiling with passion! Kim Sung-hyun crossed his arms over his chest and said, I really want to see what Old Shit is doing. In the same way that Chen Feng understood Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun also knew him very well. Hed almost forgotten what this lazy and careless man looked like when he became serious. In the previous Team of Gods, Yuan Zes talent was actually the worst. He made up for the gap with his hard work and became a natural-born, talented genius in other peoples eyes. In fact, Yuan Ze didnt hate geniuses. He actually quite liked them. Because geniuses had all lost at his hands. After announcing the participants for the match, the host then announced, Due to some special circumstances in Group B, the competition committee has adjusted the rules for the points competition. The entire audience: Why was it being changed again? Although it was the first time theyd done this kind of points competition event, it shouldnt be to the point where they had to fix bugs twice in three days. The host was only responsible for announcing the message and quickly finished saying what needed to be said. This change was actually quite big. From today all the way until the final prize pool battle, all teams could only invite the same team for a training match once. In other words, since L&P had invited FTW today, they wouldnt be able to invite FTW again even if they entered the top three tomorrow. This match would be their first 5v5 match during the training camp, and it might also be their last one! Chapter 68: War Song Why! Wei Xiaos mentality was collapsing. This big hearted player who wouldnt collapse even if he lost several dozen solo games in a row or encountered an extremely strong team who could turn him into a permanent ghost, actually ended up losing it due to the organizers. Why were they limited to only one game? Why! Hadnt they said that those who were ranked in the top three could freely pick their opponents for the training match? Why had they changed it just like that! What was going on with the organizers? Couldnt they let people train properly! However, there was practically nobody else out of the nearly 100 contestants from the 18 competition zones who thought the same way as Wei Xiao. Most people, even if it was his good brother White Cabbage, were all relieved. Playing only once was great, would anyone really be able to stand it if they had to play every day?! Because this rule change was too big, the competition committee had to give the contestants an explanation for it, so the host was very careful when she explained the reason for the change. This time, it wasnt FTWs fault. Although it was somewhat related to them, FTWs inability to play according to common sense wasnt enough to slap the competition committee awake. It had been two teams from Group B whod forced the competition committee to realize that there was a problem with their rules. One of the teams was EVE, nicknamed painkiller by others, and the other team was RR from the China competition zone. EVEs mid-lane was Xie He, a starter from the former Team of Gods, and RRs mid-lane was China competition zones new starter, Moonlit. At first, nobody had discovered that there was a problem. The scent of gunpowder was very faint in Group B on the first day of the points competition, and nobody had even tried very hard to score points during the free matches. RR didnt stand out in a training camp filled with powerful players. Even the domestic champion FTW was neglected, let alone RR. However, RRs captain, Money, was a special one. He used his own money to encourage his teammates, Brothers, go for it! Ill subsidize 10,000 yuan for every point you guys get! Winning a game was three points, and if they played seven games and won all of them, it would total 210,000 yuan. RRs team members immediately grew excited and started to score points like crazy. As a result, RR charged into third place and was even able to push EVE out of the top three. Captain Mo liked to indulge his team. Knowing that his mid-laner wanted to have a fight with Glorys number one mid-laner, he waved his hand in a grand gesture and selected EVE for the training match. In a sense, EVEs mid-lane and RRs mid-lane Moonlit had similar attributes. They were both hedgehog-type mid-laners, and they poked at others more fiercely than their own junglers. They fought over the lane soldiers super quickly and became even more extreme when they were given support. EVEs jungler was their team captain, and RRs jungler was also their captain. Both teams relied on the linkage between their mid-lane and jungler to madly stir up trouble. The scent of gunpowder exploded within minutes as soon as the two teams met. On the first day, EVE hadnt taken it seriously. This was particularly the case for Xie He, who hadnt placed any importance on Moonlit at all. Nobody could have guessed that RR would actually manage to turn the tables and win the game. This matter really stabbed the hornets nest. Back then in the Team of Gods, the one with the worst temper was this fellow with the word He in his name. God Xie belonged to the type who looked like they liked to spend their years quietly and steadily, but in fact, his character was very fierce, and his play style was very aggressive. When he went wild, he could fight one against nineCCthats right, he would even fight his own teammates. Moonlit was really implicated innocently in this matter. However, on the second day, EVE charged to first place and picked RR for their training match. RR was really different this year. Ever since the addition of Moonlit, the entire team had done a 360 degree turn. They changed from the previous Money-led I might be silly, but I have a lot of money style and became a fierce, kill, just f*cking kill style wild dog team overnight. Think about it; Moonlit was someone whod been tempered by the Grandmaster for hundreds of games, yet still insisted on continuing to play professionally. His mentality couldnt be compared with that of ordinary people. Xie He wanted to punish him? Moonlit wanted to turn the tables and kill him again! The conflict between these two teams had effectively reached a conclusion. In fact, everyone could see that EVE was much stronger than RR. A Xie He who was playing seriously was completely able to hang Moonlit up then beat him down. Reasonably speaking, the matter would be over after they won the game, but no, Moonlits unwillingness to accept his loss managed to stimulate Xie He. So what if he won? This brats eyes still showed that he wasnt admitting defeat! So, on the third day, RR, whod fought back into third place, picked EVE, whod dropped off the top three again. These two teams were really locked in, and their attitude seemed to say that this matter wouldnt be over until the other party died. The competition committee looked into it How the hell had it turned out like this? The purpose of winter training was to promote interaction between many teams. How had it become two teams going back and forth like this! The other teams also responded vaguely, RRs situation is a little too tragic. If this continues, they might retire from the game after they return home. The investors were also unhappy about it, EVE will definitely win. Theres no suspense when watching this kind of game. The fans are crying and kicking up a fuss. Group Bs management team talked to Group As team, and Group A immediately replied that their own top three teams had all picked FTW, already resulting in a change in the rules. Both parties thought it over: F*ck, this wasnt right! The original intention behind this rule was that strong teams wouldnt place so much effort into the points competition training matches, so they wouldnt be so serious in the free matches. The ones who made it to the top three every day would be relatively strong teams, but not the top ones, and they hadnt expected this entire mess to happen. The really powerful teams had inexplicably developed a strong desire to win, and then they all picked easy targets from the China competition zone. Wasnt that just bullying China?! China was one of the competition zones with the highest number of Glory players. The competition committee felt that they couldnt allow this big daddy to feel aggrieved, so They changed the rules! The 18 teams could only fight against the same team once in the points competition; Teams who had a negative total score over three days would lose their qualification to compete for the final prize pool elimination battle. The last day of training was changed to an elimination battle for the prize pool. All qualified teams could participate in the competition, and the teams would be matched together at random. If they lost, they would also lose their prize pool. The final winner would take home all the prize money! Everything was worked out. The entire points competition process was completed and released! After listening to the whole process, many teams who had been at negative points over the past two days suddenly had different expressions on their faces. Originally, theyd wanted to take it easy and save their strength so that they could perform well in the last round. Yet as a result the competition committee no longer gave them the opportunity to develop so casually. The investor daddies expressed: To hell with developing slowly. If the teams didnt come here to compete, then what were they here for? Wei Xiao wasnt worried about negative points. What he was concerned about wasCC RR is so strong, Moonlit is also pretty good! He was looking forward to the domestic competition! Elimination matches for the prize pool are interesting. Caicai, do you want to make a fortune? Laozi wanted to take first place! Brother Cai, whod just been cued, had no fighting spirit: Get lost, I dont want to, I cant do it! What was he thinking? He even wanted to make a fortune? Was he treating PRO and L&P like decorations? The prize pool elimination matches on the last day became a carrot on a stick that hung in front of Wei Xiao that barely pacified his collapsing mentality. Alright then, for better or worse, the last day would be exciting enough, so these days in the middle could be considered as bitter training. Wei Xiao cheered up. Before the game, FTW and L&P had a friendly (trash talk) exchange. Gary spoke in a very serious tone, Play well. This is probably the last time for us to play against each other during training. It was the first time, and also the last time. Damn it, he just had to hammer the little lunatic! Wei Xiao was surprised, Old G, you should be more confident. Gary: ??? Wei Xiao: I think that theres still a chance for L&P to fight their way out of the elimination matches for the prize pool. Work hard! Ill be waiting for you at the finals in 12 days. The implication was that his FTW would definitely make it to the finals. As for whether or not L&P could, well work hard, you guys. Gary: Yuan Ze carried away his own silly jungler. How useless was he? He couldnt even beat Little Lunatic Wei when he was using English! After checking over their equipment, both parties entered BP. Whether or not it would be a wonderful game could already be seen from the BP part of the game. In a perfunctory game, BP only took a matter of minutes to complete, and neither side would spend too much time on schemes. In a serious game, BP was like playing chess. Each step required thinking three steps ahead, and it was filled to the brim with tricks and strategies. Chen Fengs expression was solemn, and those who were familiar with him were surprised. Such a serious Coach Chen Feng had only been seen at the global finals before. FTWs 5v5 had never been on such a stage but Chen Feng, as Lu Fengs only teammate in the individual competition, had to participate in the BP part of the individual games. He was showing such a serious attitude, and it was enough to prove how much importance he was placing on this training match. Chen Feng adjusted the headset and asked, What talent do you want to use? Their battle strategies had been prepared a long time ago, but picking which one theyd used was dependent on the immediate situation. What the other side banned or snatched up would affect their own line-up for the game. Chen Feng was used to asking his players what they wanted to use. No matter what thoughts they had before the game started, once they sat down in their seats and came into contact with their keyboard, the feeling they had at that instant might be different. Under the precondition of ensuring a viable line-up, it was Chen Fengs duty to strive for the talent that the players wanted to play the most. Hed originally thought that the first to speak up would be Wei Xiao, but unexpectedly, it was Lu Feng. Ill take the berserker warrior. Wei Xiao immediately followed up, In that case, Ill take the berserker thief. Chen Feng nodded, Okay. This double berserker combination was very strong. For a team that liked to link together the top lane and jungler, having those two join together was like going up against heaven and earth. Bai Cai said, Theyll probably ban the giant shaman. The double berserker combination would become an immortal line-up when paired up with a tanky support. If L&Ps coach really allowed them to take such a line-up, he might as well curl up and roll home now. Chen Feng evaluated, Well take the berserker warrior first, then see if the other side will snatch up their jungler talent. FTW had first pick, then L&P got the next two picks. They could choose to take the berserker thief and giant shaman all in one go. It was fine if they did; the berserker warrior was very flexible and could be matched up with various different line-ups. On the other hand, if they used their first pick on their support position, it would make their line-up easier to target. L&Ps coach saw through Chen Fengs intentions with a glance. They took the berserker thief, but the giant shaman remained free. Wei Xiao chuckled, Old G is done for. This little devil. Chen Feng knocked on his head, Youre the clever one. Wei Xiao: Isnt it, though? Captains berserker warrior is enough to beat him into seclusion. The corner of Chen Fengs mouth curved up, Come on, then. Get the mid-lane and marksman positions. It was good having two all-around players in the team. The line-ups they could use were now much broader. They had wanted to snatch up the double berserker combination, but the other side had seen through their intention and broken the line-up they wanted. However For better or worse, Coach Chen was the man behind the great demon king. How could he not leave himself with some unplayed cards? The berserker warrior was indeed the berserker thiefs best partner, but it was also the opponent that the berserker thief was most afraid of. Old G already had a psychological shadow when it came to Close, and now that he was playing the berserker thief Haha. Work hard, Old G! L&P was worthy of being a strong team. They werent willing to step back at all; their top-lane snatched up the blood warrior that was extremely strong in the early stages while their mid-lane took the immortal warlock that could overturn the skies. After more than ten minutes of back and forth, both sides were able to lock down very good line-ups. FTW: berserker warrior, immortal thief, spirit mage, holy priest, frost hunter. L&P: blood warrior, berserker thief, immortal warlock, demonic shaman, laser launcher. The commentators were already looking forward to the fight. Both sides have pretty good line-ups. The berserker warrior and blood warrior are well matched, and the immortal thief and berserker thief are both team-fight type junglers. This time, FTWs mid-lane was quite daring and took the spirit mage. The spirit mage isnt bad against the immortal warlock. Other short legged mages might end up dying very miserably. Whites holy priest is second to none in the league. Last year, in Chinas domestic finals, his second skill was enough to control the other side until they went into seclusion. FTW.les frost hunter is good, too. As long as hes able to survive calmly, hell be able to deal explosive damage later on. The audience listened as the commentators praised FTW and felt very hollow inside. As everyone knew, the commentators would be biased towards weaker teams and give them a round of praise at the start of the game to prevent the players from being hammered too badly right from the beginning. In this game of L&P against FTW, no matter how they looked at it, L&P was too strong, and FTW was too weak. The Chinese audience all felt as if their hearts were tied up in knots, Although I dont really like FTW, I still hope that they wont lose too badly. As an FTW hater, Ill say this first. If theyre able to win against L&P, Ill become their fan for a whole season. F*ck, can you guys stop talking crap, this old lady is an old FTW fan, and my heart is about to explode, okay! Close against Marshall, theyre both from the Team of Gods! Regardless of whether it was the commentators or the fans, none of them were optimistic about FTW. Not even mentioning these people, even Mother Chen Feng wasnt optimistic. However, he wasnt nervous right now. Just do it. They could just move on if they lost. Let loose and really focus on enjoying this unique game! While countless people were still filled with tension and worry, FTW took down First Blood in the game! F*ck! Oh my god! Too crazy! FTWs new jungler is really daring! Quiet killed Marshal! What the hell kind of devils start to the game was this! Chapter 69: A man should have ambitions. Just look, I particularly want to... As they entered the canyon, Lu Feng spoke to Wei Xiao, Yuan Ze has a habit. Wei Xiaos ears pricked up, Hm? Lu Feng: Bai Cai, go to the bottom lane. You come here. Wei Xiao loved to make trouble at the start of the game. He agreed immediately, Okay! The most important monster in the upper jungle zone was undoubtedly the one with the blue buff on its back. In a conventional game, the jungler would either go to the lower jungle zone and start with the red buff, go for the blue buff, or head to the middle lane to harass the other side, stirring up a small conflict and making the other side cautious. However, FTW didnt play cards according to normal convention. They charged down the top lane at the start of the game and hid themselves in the bushes of L&Ps upper jungle zone. Yuan Ze indeed had a habit. At the start of the game, he wouldnt go up to the top lane first and would directly cross the river in the middle to enter the enemys jungle and explore, letting his team see more of the map. The bushes that Lu Feng and Wei Xiao were hidden in was in a location that he absolutely had to pass in order to enter the enemy jungle. If he wanted to go and harass Wei Xiao, then he would have to pass through these bushes. If he didnt go and harass Wei Xiao, then Lu Feng and Wei Xiao wouldnt be able to ambush him. Would Yuan Ze come or not? Wei Xiao laughed and said, Hes here! Lu Feng was really worthy of being an old teammate. He understood Yuan Ze so well! A level one berserker warrior had a flying attack skill. The level one Wei Xiao started up a three segment movement skill and charged straight into Yuan Zes face. Yuan Ze was taken by surprise by the two people who came over to attack, F*ck! As soon as the two sides started fighting, their location was exposed. Old G immediately spoke up, Wait for me! He just happened to be in the upper jungle zone. Yuan Ze: Dont come. He wouldnt be able to leave. In the early stages, the blood warrior was incredibly squishy. Without its ultimate move, it was unable to lifesteal, and after being attacked by these two, there was already no doubt about his death. Instead of wasting time, Old G should quickly go and kill jungle monsters so that he could snatch up the rhythm of the game. Gary had cooperated with him for many years and immediately understood what he meant. He picked up his pace, wanting to take the opportunity to invade FTWs jungle areas and snatch away their resources. Yuan Ze was also worthy of being a man whose name was in the Temple of Glory. After being caught in Lu Feng and Wei Xiaos ambush, he wasnt anxious or flustered. Knowing that he had no way to escape, he instead attempted to trade a life for a life. Wei Xiaos immortal thief was even squishier than the blood warrior in the early stages. Yuan Ze didnt retreat. He advanced instead, hitting Wei Xiao with his skills. Closes berserker warrior was unable to deal much DPS before it hit level six, but it had high defense. He skillfully moved his hero over to block Wei Xiaos body behind him, taking the damage dealt by the blood warrior. The damage dealt by three consecutive hits was very considerable. The blood warrior cut Lu Feng down to half health. Wei Xiao raised his voice, Captain, hold on! He used his movement skill to position himself behind Yuan Ze, and his long sword swept across like a rainbow, a white sword light stabbing into Yuan Zes back. The commentator exclaimed, Amazing! His attack was perfect and triggered rend! The immortal thief had a passive ability that allowed it to deal double damage if it hit an enemy from behind. It would also cause rend, which dealt continuous damage over time! Yuan Ze turned around and stabbed, wanting to cleave this little bastard in half. Wei Xiaos movements were very agile. He used the second part of his movement skill to wind around to his back again and executed another perfect rend. At this time, Closes skill was no longer on cooldown, and he used his first skill to stun Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze ignored this attack that came from the front, locking onto Wei Xiao and chopping again. Commentator B sucked in a breath of air, The immortal thiefs health wont be able to hold up! Commentator A was also surprised, Marshal really deserves to be Glorys strongest top-laner. His strength in this 1v2 fight was really the limit. Even if his death was inevitable, he would still be able to take someone down with him and might even be able to snatch up First Blood. In this situation where everyone thought that Wei Xiao would die, he used that last 0.01 second to use the third part of his three part movement skill and flashed behind Lu Feng! It was the true definition of it all happened in the blink of an eye. Yuan Zes blood blade swept out in the same moment that he was attacked, and Wei Xiao used Close as a shield to avoid the damage, managing to keep the last third of his health. F*ck! Gary, who was killing jungle monsters near the top lane couldnt hold back his anger. He wanted to give up the jungle monster hed been fighting for a long time and come over to provide support. Yuan Ze yelled, Clear your jungle! Gary: Theyre almost dead. Yuan Zes voice was cold, Close can kill you on his own. Gary was shocked. Yuan Zes judgement at this moment was correct. It was true that Gary could make his way over in time, but it didnt make much sense to do so. The best outcome was for Yuan Ze to kill Wei Xiao. If he couldnt do it, then Gary would just be killed if he came. If Old G came to provide support, Wei Xiao would definitely die, but Close, who was still at half health, would definitely be able to kill Gary. If that happened, L&Ps top-laner and jungler would both be dead, and their rhythm would collapse like a bloody avalanche! Yuan Ze was only left with a small sliver of health. His health bar had gone from the critical red color to a dying black. Any little soldier just had to poke him, and hed topple to the ground. Even so, he turned around to use an auto attack and stab at Wei Xiao with his fog-covered blood blade. The players beneath the stage were shocked, He can do that?! Tang Chen, who had once been FTWs top-laner was so focused he didnt even blink. On the other side, Pros Kim Sung-hyun sneered, This old dog is really good at hiding himself. L&P and Pro often arranged training matches between themselves. Theyd played several hundred games together, but hed never seen Old Bandit Yuan play so seriously before. If they didnt know better, theyd think that this was the global finals! Yuan Zes bloody blade reached Wei Xiao, and the immortal thiefs fragile body was seriously injured in an instant. His crimson health bar indicated that he was on the verge of death. As long as he could hit him one more time, just brush against him with the tip of his blade Yuan Ze would be able to kill Wei Xiao! Shouldnt they withdraw? The immortal thief can leave now. They can just let Close take the kill. Yeah, rather than sending himself up for Yuan Ze to kill, why not let Close take First Blood. Holy shit, the immortal thief attacked! Hes crazy! Is he ignoring the overall situation just for the sake of a First Blood? The immortal thief charged at the blood warrior. The two of them who only had a sliver of health left were competing on absolute hand speed! Was the newcomer Quiet better than the old veteran Marshal? Dream on! System announcement: FTW.Quiet killed L&P.Marshal. Success! Wei Xiao killed Yuan Ze! There was an uproar in the banquet hall. The commentators were dazed for half a second before saying, Really beautiful. That hand speed is pretty good. In the live broadcast room, the audience had exploded, Holy shit, this kid is really strong! Brave and resourceful, and he dares to fight! Too crazy, he was actually able to pull it off. Hell die hes going to die, too. Although he took First Blood, hes also going to give the other side a kill. He wont die! The immortal thief managed to activate his second passive ability! Commentator B: Quiet killed Marshal! He used the movement skill from earlier and basic auto attacks to activate the immortal thiefs second passive, giving him an invulnerability status effect for 0.01 seconds! For the average player, this passive ability was basically useless, and even an average professional player wouldnt dare to rely on it in such a situation. It was like the shadow thiefs light arcs. Everyone knew that it was very powerful if it could be activated, but the margin of error was too slight.. If they relied on this skill for survival, the possibility of failure was too high. But Wei Xiao did it! It was precise and perfectly executed! Commentator A quickly followed up, The immortal thief was right not to retreat. If hed been timid and left the kill to Close, he would have definitely died. He was still within the blood warriors range of attack! Commentator B: Thats right. His movement skill and that last attack activated the second passive ability, allowing him to use invulnerability to resist Yuan Zes post-death attack. The fans were even more shocked after the experts explained the situation. Who just said that Quiet was stealing kills? Come out and die! To hell with stealing kills. This was him calculating accurately that he could only survive if he charged in! Isnt Quiet strongest with the shadow thief? Why is his immortal thief also so amazing. Its only three minutes since the game started. God Yuans sending of the First Blood has probably broken a record. In last years global competition, God Yuan was killed in a one against one at the start of the game. But it was only once. I know! It was Eves God Xie and his captain who went into the opposing jungle and killed God Yuan! How exciting. Its so heated even at the start of the game. FTWs really different this year! The fans were discussing heatedly amongst themselves when another system announcement came up in the gameCC L&P.VIVI killed FTW.Silvery. VIVI was L&Ps mid-lane, and Silvery was Ning Zhehan. L&Ps mid-lane had killed FTWs mid-lane in a one against one fight! Both teams had chosen agile and flexible talents for their mid-lane positions. The immortal warlock was relatively weak before it reached level six because it couldnt stack up continuous moves and fly up into the clouds. The spirit mage had no such scruples. It could fly into the shadows as soon as it went out, and it could cover a very long distance with its movement skill, basically spanning the distance between both towers. After it reached level two, it would also have its core DPS ability that dealt considerable damage and also applied a deceleration effect. In general, before it reached level six, the spirit mage should be able to suppress the immortal warlock and beat them up. But Ning Zhehan had been killed by the immortal warlock while hiding beneath the tower! Lu Feng and Wei Xiao had taken First Blood on the top lane, but half a second later, L&Ps mid-lane had already gotten even. This was the strength of a team who could contend for the world cup. None of its players could be underestimated! The screen went dark. Ning Zhehans voice trembled, Im sorry. It hadnt been easy for the captain and Brother Xiao to gain the advantage at the start of the game, but hed ended up sending over a kill. Wei Xiao: What are you sorry for? If you hadnt held down VIVI, then the captain and I wouldve died. Ning Zhehan was stunned. Wei Xiao continued, I dared to go and attack Old Dog Yuan because I saw that you were keeping VIVI occupied. 5v5 really was really reliant on cooperation. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were fighting against L&P in the bottom lane, and the four of them nibbled at each other, with nobody gaining the upper hand. In the mid-lane, VIVI had cleared his soldiers faster than Ning Zhehan. If Ning Zhehan had shrunk back, then VIVI would immediately be able to go up to the top lane to provide support, cooperating with Yuan Ze to send both Lu Feng and Wei Xiao home dead. Now, although Ning Zhehan had been killed, hed already cleared his soldiers and wouldnt suffer any losses in farming. Additionally, hed kept VIVI occupied and given Lu Feng and Wei Xiao enough time to kill Yuan Ze. Hed used his life to save two people, and had also helped his teammates take First Blood. FTW had come out on top in this exchange! Ning Zhehan couldnt help but say, I-I shouldve been able to kill him. If both sides were evenly matched, then Ning Zhehans spirit mage shouldve been able to kill the immortal warlock before they reached level six. Wei Xiao was amused, Little Ning, youre quite ambitious. Who is VIVI? Hes someone in the global top three mid-laners. Youve just started, and you already want to screw him over? Ning Zhehan: Wei Xiao continued to make pithy remarks as he went to clear his jungle, Well, theres nothing wrong with that. A man should have ambitions. Just look, I particularly want to Brother Cai, who was busy providing vision, didnt dare to listen any further, Hurry the hell up. If you dont want the red daddy, then give it to Old G as a gift. Wei Xiao was anxious, Im coming, Im coming! Although his words just now had been a little bizarre, it still held some truth. The immortal warlock in front of him was a player whod once won the world championship and was up there in the Glory rankings. It had previously been unimaginable that Ning Zhehan would be able to survive while standing across from him in the lane. So what if hed been killed once? Brother Xiao had been killed thousands of times by their captain and treated it like it was nothing! When he thought about it that way, Ning Zhehan was suddenly full of energy! On L&Ps side, the team chat turned quiet for a while after Yuan Ze died. VIVI: FTWs mid-lane isnt very good. Gary, come get him. Yuan Ze: No need. VIVI: As long as we destroy the mid-lane, FTW will lose without being able to put up a fight. Yuan Ze stared at the screen and spoke in a deep voice, Old G, come to the top lane. Was it meaningful to attack FTWs weakness? Hed been looking forward to this game because of Lu Feng and Wei Xiao. He wanted to beat them. He wanted to beat FTW thoroughly, from their very roots! The commentators immediately spoke up, Gary is going to the top lane. Judging from this angle and this position, it seems that L&P wants to clear out their previous shame! Its happening, its happening, Marshal and Gary are going to gank Close! Most of FTWs team is in the lower jungle area. They definitely wont have time to go support, and the payback for the 2v1 at the start of the game is coming! So, will Close be killed like Marshal was? These sentences heated up the atmosphere and the audience followed suit, growing nervous as they watched. Wei Xiaos intuition was very keen. He seemed to have caught on to something, Old Bai, toss some vision over the dragon cave! Bai Cai cursed, F*ck, Old G must have gone up. Captain, be careful! Lu Fengs voice was calm, Wei Xiao, go to the mid-lane and cooperate with Ning to kill the immortal warlock. Wei Xiao: Captain He wanted to go up and support the top lane. Lu Feng suddenly asked him, Just now, what did you say you particularly wanted to do? Wei Xiao paused for a moment before remembering the trash talk hed been saying to Little Ning just now. CCA man should have ambitions. Just look, I particularly want to screw the captain. Bai Cai had interrupted him before he could finish, and he wouldnt dare to say it now even if he was beaten to death. Wei Xiao quickly changed his words, Get screwed over by the captain! FTWs mid-laner, bottom laner, and support almost simultaneously smashed their faces into their keyboards. Lu Fengs expression didnt change at all, So, what are you worried about. His voice dropped, and the berserker warrior switched states. He was covered in heavy armor, and his long sword flashed with cold light. His second skill swept across, his icy blue blade sending Gary, who was crouched in the bushes, flying into the air. xiin: Get screwed over by the captain! heeheeeheee, dont worry itll happen~ Chapter 70: Close, badass! The commentator and those watching the live broadcast couldnt hear their team chat. What they could see was the result: the berserker warrior used its ultimate move, stabbing its blade at the berserker thief hidden in the grass! Close sensed it! FTW has no vision across the entire river. Garys positioning was very good, but Close was actually able to sense it. This kind of intuition is really impressive. Indeed, professional players had something called intuition. It sounded very metaphysical, but in fact, it was formed through countless repetition and experience, creating a game consciousness that went beyond reason. This was one of the subtle factors that drew a line between top class contestants and ordinary ones. Top class contestants had radars that were more sensitive in ways that the ordinary contestant couldnt grasp. This was probably a kind of awareness towards the killing intent from an ancient battlefield. It came from the strong will that was tempered after wandering on the edge of life and death countless times! Lu Fengs blade swept across, leaving Gary stunned for half a second. A mere half a second was already a huge gap in his defenses. Lu Feng seized the opportunity to smash down a set of skills along with his enhanced basic attack, cutting Gary down to a sliver of health in seconds. Old G was worthy of being a man who often walked around beneath the great demon kings blade; his hand speed was amazing. He hooked a jungle monster over with his scythe, then flipped over the wall, following his scythe. He avoided Lu Fengs subsequent attack and was able to escape with his small life. Everything happened too quickly, taking place over mere seconds, and the audience was still in a state of surprise. Yuan Ze had already come over from the rear, his blood blade coming out of its sheath, sending the red and black blade cleaving towards the back of the berserker warrior. Lu Feng didnt remain focused on the berserker thief with only a sliver of health left. Instead, he turned to attack Yuan Ze with a returning blow. The red and black bloodsucking blade and the berserker warriors ice blue magical blade clashed, sending a gorgeous, brilliant light through the canyon. The two people involved in this confrontation were surrounded by ice and fire, their killing intent surging! Amazing! The audience in the live broadcast room exploded, The great demon king is amazing! He was too f*cking cool! The audience watching from gods perspective could see what was happening better than anyone else. Yuan Ze and Gary were clearly trying to recreate Lu Feng and Wei Xiaos two against one fight from the start of the game. However, Lu Feng hadnt fallen for it at all. Instead, hed taken the initiative to attack and drove Gary away with a set of skills. Yuan Ze had charged over to attack, but he still didnt retreat. He took advantage of the fact that he was still in his berserk state to resist the damage and counterattack. In just one or two seconds, FTW, who had originally been in a state of crisis, regained its advantage through Lu Fengs preemptive efforts. Wei Xiao was completely relieved. After he finished his sweep through the small jungle zone, he returned to the middle lane, Little Ning, lets get revenge! Ning Zhehan was excited, Okay! The immortal warlock didnt take Ning Zhehan seriously at all. He was very close to the front, wanting to find a chance to kill Ning Zhehan. Ning Zhehans finger pressed down on the W key and was ready to move at any time. Pressing down on the keyboard was very simple, and anyone could release skills. The difficult thing was grasping the timing. It was no good if it was a little too late, and useless if it was too early. The margin of error for the skill release was less than 0.01 seconds and had to be accurate in order to hold down the flashy immortal warlock. Wei Xiao landed a full ultimate move on the immortal warlock, but VIVIs reaction speed was able to catch up, and he relied on the small soldiers nearby to share the damage and remain alive. However Ning Zhehan pressed down on the shadow form skill, and the spirit mage flew out from beneath the tower to the immortal warlock. At the moment when the immortal warlock landed, a silver ball of light exploded against his chest! Bang, bang, bang! Three explosions rang out in the headset, and Ning Zhehan cried out excitedly, They all hit! The spirit mages ultimate move had three stages of damage. If all of them hit the same point on the same target, the damage would be tripled. Based on the amount of damage dealt just now, the immortal warlock would definitely die. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Silvery killed L&P.VIVI! Ning Zhehan had killed the immortal warlock! Hed really gotten revenge! Ning Zhehan yelled, Nice! Wei Xiao: Badass, Brother Ning, you killed the worlds number three mage. Ning Zhehan tried to contain himself a little, Its the number three mid-laner in the rankings. Then, Holy shit, I beat the number three mid-laner on the world rankings. Little Nings ego was expanding! At the same time, there was good news from the top lane. FTW.Close killed L&P.Marshal! FTW.Close killed L&P.Gary! FTW.Close double kill! This series of system announcements was so exciting that the entire FTW teams momentum instantly reached a new high. At the top lane, L&Ps Yuan Ze and Old G wanted to gank Close, but they were killed instead! It was two against one, but both of them died. There was nothing else that needed to be said. The scrolling comments were packed densely withCCthe great demon king was amazing! He was really amazing. Before, theyd only known that he could play jungler, and theyd never thought that he would also be such an overlord when he went to the top lane. What team fight? The great demon king could fight alone! As for solo? He could fight two on one and still teach others how to be a man! The fight on the top lane and mid-lane had started at about the same time. In fact, the live broadcast studio had only carved out a small shot of Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan and had mainly focused on the top lane. It was a peak level fight between Marshal and Close; it was too exciting, okay?! The blood warrior that was covered in a red aura after using its ultimate move and the berserker warrior that was coated in icy blue were like ancient gods of war dueling at the edge of a cliff! Each move was murderous. Pairing dazzling special effects with a 3D display made the battle so stunning that the audiences scalps went numb. After the blood warriors ultimate move was started up, he could crazily suck health from his opponents by dealing damage. His bloodsucking blade would change from red and black to a brilliant, bright red, looking like it was filled with flowing, hot blood. The berserker warriors transformation only lasted ten seconds, but it became stronger with every passing second, and the special effects became even chillier. In the last four seconds, the berserker warriors entire body would be covered with ice blue flames, and even its heavy armor would be burned to ashes, revealing its strong arms and chest muscles. There were many female Glory players. In last years ranking for most handsome talent specs, the berserker warrior only ranked seventh. However, this segment was edited online after this game ended, and the crazy warriors popularity was about to break through the sky in direct competition against the shadow thief! It was too damned handsome. This man, Close, was really poisonous. It was enough that he himself was handsome; how come even the heroes he controlled carried his aura? It made people so handsome that their hearts almost thumped out of their chests. Four seconds, three seconds, two seconds, one second The berserker warriors berserk state ended, and the blood warriors bloodsucking state disappeared. The two of them had been fighting back and forth constantly over this brief time. Skills, positioning, avoiding damage Countless details made the audiences scalps numb. The two men of equal strength were strong enough to go up against the sky. Their bodies were clearly outside the canyon, but it was as though they were attached to the canyon and it was shocking when they clashed against each other! In the end, the berserker warrior cut down the blood warrior. Lu Feng killed Yuan Ze. If that was all, then the audience wouldnt be filling up the screen like crazy. The berserker warrior who only had one segment of health left, who no longer had its ultimate move, whose skills were all in cooldown, pressed down on teleport. In Glory, each hero could bring two system skills. Teleportation was a required one, and using it allowed the player to be transmitted to a teammate, a friendly defense tower, or friendly soldiers. Everyone sucked in a breath, Shit, Old G! Yes, Lu Feng had teleported to Old G. In the fight just now, Old G had been disabled and could only retreat. However, it was impossible for him to just return home like this. A professional player would race against the clock to farm as much as possible. He wanted to use the soldiers in the top lane to regain some health and kill Lu Feng after hed recovered slightly. Obviously, Lu Feng had seen through his idea. He teleported directly to FTWs soldiers. Garys hands trembled slightly as he stared at the berserker warrior that had dropped down from the sky. Yuan Ze: He has no skills left. Old G steadied himself as he realized that the great demon king in front of him was just a paper tiger. Hed already recovered a small amount of health, and if he tried hard and used all his skills Lu Feng didnt use any skills at all. He used flash to approach and took away Garys life with a single attack. The entire scene fell silent. Regardless of whether it was outside the stage or in the team voice chat. It was as though everyones mute button had been pressed, and nobody made a sound. F*ck! He still had flash! This was also a system skill, and it was of a similar nature to teleport. Players could choose to equip this skill at the start of the game. The cooldown time for the skill was two minutes, and it was equivalent to a movement skill. It allowed the player to flash quickly from Point A to Point B. Close had kept the flash skill all the way until now. Hed planned to kill both of them right from the very beginning! Two against one? Ambush? They wanted to kill the great demon king? Sorry, but neither of them would be allowed to run. The domestic fans were super excited. Regardless of whether theyd previously been Close haters, haters for life, or haters till death, at this moment, they all became his fan for three seconds. Too cool, it was too damn cool. They had to consider who he was up against! It was L&P! The 2019 global champion, the 2020 global runner up, the strongest top-laner, the strongest jungler, and the strongest top-lane and jungler pairing! One against two, and hed killed both of them. Close was really strong! FTWs team chat had also exploded. Wei Xiao: Holy shit holy shit! Bai Cai could vaguely sense that the next sentence would be problematic. As expected, Wei Xiao was full of regret, I really envy L&P! He also wanted to play in the same lane against Close, and he also wanted to have a heated fight with him! Ning Zhehan & Yue Wenle both thought to themselves: Your envy is aimed at the wrong people, right? Lu Feng comforted the grumpy little lunatic with a single sentence, Solo, tonight. Little Lunatic Wei came back to life on the spot, Lets kill L&P. To hell with envy. L&P could only play against Close several times a year, but he could play and sing with him every single night. Ten minutes into the game. The score was 4:1. L&P had died four times, of which Yuan Ze made up two of the deaths This data was incredible. Let alone facing the FTW team that always did a round trip for the global competition, L&P wouldnt be in such a state when fighting against strong teams like Y1, Pro, and EVE. Dying twice in a row? Was Marshal still the same Marshal? Did he still deserve such an ID? There was dead silence in L&Ps team chat. Half a beat later, VIVI spoke in a low voice, Sorry. If he hadnt been killed, he couldve gone to the top lane to provide support. Yuan Ze fixed his eyes on the screen and said nothing. Gary sat next to him and took advantage of his darkened screen of death to sneak a quick look at him. Yuan Zes black hair curled slightly, falling loosely on the tip of his pale ear, imitating the black ear stud on his earlobe. Instead of showing a gloomy expression, his lips were hooked up. Gary. Yuan Zes voice was full of pleasure, Lets show them what a real top-jungler linkage is. Garys scalp was numb, and goose bumps exploded all over his arms, Okay! A real top-jungler linkage. It was the year that L&P dominated the Glory circle, and it was a legend created by Marshal and Gary. That was during Yuan Zes first year at L&P. In the year after Yuan Ze had been put on the bench for a season as a rubbish player after transferring to a new competition zone! 2017 was the peak year for the Team of Gods. 2018 was Yuan Zes low point. Hed left his own competition zone and joined the powerful North American competition zone. There were ethnic differences, nationality differences, and even language barriers. Despite his proud achievements and his strength that was enough to crush others, he had still encountered discrimination and exclusion. The team that had signed him at a high price had originally planned to make good use of him. Unfortunately, Glory was a team game. A player who couldnt fit into the team would only be abandoned. In 2018, Yuan Ze made his debut but lost messily. It wasnt that he wasnt good but more that his teammates didnt cooperate at all. So what if he played the top-lane? Even a lonely position like the top-lane still required the support of his teammates. Yuan Ze had no teammates. He lost three games in a row during the regular season and went from being a starter to a substituteCCthe most expensive substitute. That year, the China competition zone lost Marshal, and the North American competition zone hid Marshal. Yuan Ze remained dormant for a season, then terminated his contract with his team in 2019 and went to the mediocre team L&P. He trained up Gary on his own, brought out VIVI, picked out his current teammates, and formed a new L&P. In 2019, the top-jungler linkage between Yuan Ze and Gary appeared in the world, smashing its way through the North American competition zone, charging all the way to the finals, and winning the world championship. Yuan Ze proved himself with absolute strengthCC He was very strong. No matter where he was, he was very strong. But after the peak came the downhill slide. In 2020, the hot L&P gradually lost its original intent and was only able to obtain runner-up. And now, L&P had been ignited again. The heart that had been paralyzed by last years performance beat violently once again, and they all experienced the long-lost feeling of boiling passion within their blood. Chapter 71.1: The halo of glory shone on all five souls! Off-stage. In the Pro team, Kim Sung-hyun sneered, That doggy thing is getting serious. In 2019, Kim Sung-hyun had returned home and trained with his team for a year. It hadnt been easy for them to finally make their way into the global competition, but when theyd run into L&P back then, hed personally experienced the top-jungler linkage between Yuan Ze and Gary. Other peoples top-jungler linkage involved the jungler supporting the top-laner and pushing the top lane to create opportunities, containing the enemy and building up a farming snowball in order to win the game. That wasnt the case for L&P. Their linkage was enough to make the entire canyon tremble! After all of L&Ps players resurrected, their formation changed. The commentator was an old expert and noticed it at a glance: L&Ps demonic shaman is headed for the top lane! Is Marshal and Garys top-jungler linkage about to start? FTWs really good. They managed to drive L&P to this point! Not every team could make L&P start to play seriously. As long as they could win, they wouldnt necessarily take everything out and show off all their skills. L&Ps momentum was now totally different from before. Theyd obviously lost four kills, and their farming was behind, but they didnt seem to be on the losing side at all. Instead, they showed a strong and oppressive aura. In FTWs team chat. Bai Cai: F*ck, whats going on with L&Ps marksman?! Yue Wenle evaded the skill that came flying over and said, Brother Cai, shield. Bai Cai gave him a shield, and the two of them retreated to their tower to preserve their lives. Just when they were feeling relieved, two teleportation skills lit up, and L&Ps top-laner and jungler whod arrived at the same time moved directly towards the tower. The blood warrior didnt even start up its ultimate move and simply swept its blade directly across. The bloodsucking blade looked like the devils teeth as it tore into the frost hunters throat. System announcement: L&P Marshal killed FTW.Le. Bai Cai was dazed, I He still had an unused ultimate move, but he hadnt even been able to send it out before Yue Wenle died. The holy priests ultimate move was a powerful heal. If he used it, he could heal all friendly troops within range. Yue Wenle was anxious, Old Bai, run! Yuan Ze, whod killed Yue Wenle, withdrew from the defense towers attack range. At the same time, Gary rushed beneath the tower and locked onto Bai Cai with his scythe. Bai Cai immediately started up his ultimate move and his first and third skill. The three skills were released at the same time, and it was enough to heal a dead person back to life. However, it was useless. A berserker thiefs scythe skill could drag the target it had locked onto to their side. Bai Cai had originally been hiding beneath the tower, but in the next second, he was trapped in a crowd of L&P players. L&Ps marksman shot at him, lowering his armor and applying a weakened state, casting a shadow over the priest that was covered in a holy light. Garys scythe flew and danced everywhere, each attack drawing blood. Even if Brother Cai had 10,000 mouthfuls of milk, it would still have all been used up. And at the end Marshal took away his life with a single attack. System announcement: L&P.Marshal double kill! The commentator couldnt help cheering, Beautiful! Fans in the China competition zone were extremely dissatisfied with this, Everyone knows that FTWs bottom lane is easy pickings. If they have the ability, they should go kill the great demon king! Close took a double kill in a 1v2 fight, and Yuan Ze took a double kill in a 3v2 fight. Whats so beautiful about that? If you have the ability, go and fight 1v1 against Close and Quiet! Didnt God Yuan fight against them at the start? He was beaten like a dog. An ordinary player would think that the fight was one-sided, and they only felt that L&P was targeting FTWs weakness in an unfair fight. However, theyd ignored the truth. This was a team game. It was a game that required tacit cooperation, a team competition where five people combined together created unlimited power! Yuan Ze and Garys top-jungler linkage involved the whole L&P! Killing Bai Cai and Yue Wenle was only the beginning, but it was a perfect start to a series of chess moves. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle had both been killed, and Wei Xiao wanted to rush over to the bottom lane. Lu Feng: Protect the mid-lane. Wei Xiao stopped moving, Got it. The bottom lane was already done for, and the blood warrior, berserker thief and launcher were all heroes that could take down the tower quickly. Even if Wei Xiao went over, he wouldnt be able to save the tower. Since that was the case, it was better to stabilize Ning Zhehans mid-lane. Commentator A praised, FTW made the right choice. Commentary B agreed, If Quiet went to the bottom lane, not only would he have been forcibly killed, he also wouldnt have been able to defend the tower. What wouldve made the move even more fatal is that they would have also lost the middle tower. This was a chain reaction caused by L&Ps surprise attack. They forcibly killed two people and took down the defense tower. If Wei Xiao went to provide support, he would definitely die without a doubt; at the same time, VIVI, who was in the middle lane, could kill Ning Zhehan and gain the mid-lane advantage. Wei Xiao giving up the bottom lane tower and protecting the middle lane tower was the correct choice. At the very least, VIVI wouldnt dare to press forward and attack Ning Zhehan. This choice minimized their losses. When faced with L&Ps powerful counterattack, FTW had already implemented the optimal solution. However Kim Sung-hyun was expressionless, Naive. Hed been taken down by Old Bandit Yuans trick many times, but he still hadnt found a way to deal with it. FTWs optimal solution was actually a helpless move. After FTWs bottom lane tower exploded, Yuan Ze and Gary arrived at the middle lane almost instantly. Wei Xiaos pupils contracted, Little Ning! But it was too late. Ning Zhehan wasnt very far ahead, and he wasnt even outside of the range of his own defense tower, but the blood warrior approached in an instant and stabbed into his body directly anyway. Ning Zhehan immediately used flash to increase the distance between them. Wei Xiao: F*ck! He hadnt had time to remind Ning Zhehan that Gary was waiting in ambush when Gary had already stretched out his scythe and locked onto the spirit mage whod thrown himself right into the net. Ning Zhehan: Wei Xiao: Use your ultimate! In this kind of situation where there was no doubt that he would die, he could only try his best to deal the most DPS he could and create opportunities for his teammates. But at the end of the day, Ning Zhehan was still short on experience. After being taken by surprise and messed around like this, he panicked. He managed to use his ultimate move, but the spirit mage required exquisite attention to detail and operation in order to play out the full amount of damage. At this time, the move seemed to have been launched by a child and didnt even manage to tickle Gary. System announcement: L&P.Gary killed FTW.Silvery! At the same time, there was another one: FTW.Close killed L&P.Mo. Old G killed Ning Zhehan and Lu Feng killed L&Ps support player Mo. Theyd traded a support player for three FTW players. L&P had really come out ahead in this exchange! In just a few short minutes, L&P had pulled back from 4:1 to 5:4 and taken down two of FTWs outer towers. Theyd torn down half of FTWs canyon! The advantages that FTW had established in the early stages disappeared instantly, and they fell into a disadvantage. This was L&Ps top-jungler linkage. This was the power of a united team. This was the amazing fighting power of a team that was twisted together to form a rope. L&Ps support remained in the top lane and used the demonic shamans powerful control and tower support ability to keep Close occupied. In the bottom lane, L&Ps marksman suppressed Bai Cai and Yue Wenle all on his own. Yuan Ze and Gary arrived in time to take down two kills. In fact, even before the bottom tower had been completely destroyed, the two of them had already made their way to the mid-lane. They killed Ning Zhehan and took down the mid-lane tower. The entire process was too smooth and coherent. L&Ps top-jungler linkage had never been limited to only Yuan Ze and Gary, but also involved the entire team. They were just the spearhead! Tacit understanding, trust, and strong cohesion. This was the amazing strength that a strong team could show in 5v5 games. Yuan Ze wasnt picking on FTWs weakness. This was what a team game should be like. 5v5 had never been a fight between lone wolves. Without cutting off someones hands and feet, how could one reach their heart? L&P gave FTW a very clear lesson. The five people involved in the team competition werent individuals. They were a whole. There was no single player here. There was only L&P! The four L&P players all headed to the top lane. Even Close had no choice but to avoid their sharp edge and retreat to the second tower. At this time. All three of FTWs lanes had collapsed, and none of their outer towers remained. The advantages theyd gained at the start was like a castle built on a sand foundation, crumbling and collapsing flat under the impact from turbulent waves. This was L&P, the team that had won the world championship. These were the five people who had defeated countless powerful teams and had once stood at the top. The halo of glory. It shone on all five souls! Off-stage. Chen Feng was so nervous that he was biting his thumb. Tang Chen watched him and felt like his eyes were burning, Its not a loss for them to lose. Chen Feng exhaled lightly, Theyve already done their best. Tang Chen: Yes, they were excellent! Theyd been able to push L&P to this point, and theyd been able to make Yuan Ze and Gary play at this level of strength. They were able to experience the rhythm of such a legendary team. For the FTW team that had just come together, it was already a great harvest! They were still brand new, and they were still young. But they had endless potential! When faced with strong enemies, setbacks, and high mountains. What FTW needed to do was conquer them! In this one sided situation, many people believed that FTWs team chat would definitely be very quiet. But the truth was Wei Xiao: Old Bandit Yuan was really hiding his ability! That doggy thing was always looking down on us! This is what a real f*cking training match should be like! Wei Xiao had only participated in two training matches between FTW and L&P. When Wei Xiao was about to join the team, hed played in two training matches in a temporary capacity. At the time, Yuan Ze had also been very powerful. But, compared with the current Yuan Ze, the Yuan Ze from before seemed to have been sleepwalking! There were no feelings of depression within the FTW team, only an eagerness to try. Wei Xiao declared, Well give it a go later! The other four members of FTW, Lu Feng included, were stunned for a moment. Wei Xiao wasnt only talking to Lu Feng, but to all of his teammates, This top-jungler linkage, our FTW can do it too. Close was definitely no worse than Yuan Ze. Wei Xiao wasnt any worse than Gary either. Ning Zhehan, Bai Cai, and Yue Wenle werent any worse than the other three members of L&P. So, why couldnt they give it a try? This was an oppressive rhythm that was like a lane toppling machine. This vigorous team linkage and team cooperation that bowed down to no one. They could do it too! It was at this moment, right at this time. Wei Xiao finally really felt the charm of the team competition. Unlike a single person solo or the doubles competition that had two people playing side by side, in this 5v5, 10 person battlefield, what was needed was even more powerful team cohesion! It was fascinating, extremely fascinating. Bai Cai chuckled and said, In that case, Ill have to practice my demonic shaman. Just now, during L&Ps charge, their support player Mo had played a vital role. If the demonic shaman hadnt kept Close occupied, L&P wouldnt have been able to play so flashily in the middle and bottom lanes. Bai Cais sentence expressed his support of Wei Xiaos words. Ning Zhehan quivered all over. He suppressed the numbness that wanted to spread up his spine and said solemnly, Ill also practice assassin mages. Yue Wenle spoke in a low voice, Ill practice my ability to fight one against two. L&Ps marksmans ability to hold down Bai Cai and Yue Wenle with his own strength had been the key to their breakthrough. Lu Feng spoke, We can try it now. xiin: *squeaaaal* Chapter 71.2: As long as the resurrection crystal was still there, the game wasnt over yet! The entire team, particularly Bai Cai and Yue Wenle, couldnt help but look over at their captain. Theyd been with Close for a whole season and were too aware of how reticent he was. He never talked nonsense during the game and only ever spoke to give key instructions. Previously, the Mic Explosion King had exposed FTWs team chat many times, and everyones evaluation of FTW was: Serious. Indeed. They could all feel the FTWs seriousness from their team chat. Nobody spoke any nonsense, and everyone was focused on the game. Other than giving situation updates and sending signals, there was no excess communication. This wasnt a bad thing. In the old Team of Gods voice chat, theyd taken down one championship after another while remaining serious and silent. However, today, Close had actually given such a playful suggestion. Wei Xiao returned to normal instantly and stopped just short of smacking his own forehead, Oh yeah, why should we wait for later? Well try it right now! Bai Cai & Ning Zhehan & Yue Wenle: ??? Wei Xiao felt like it was more and more reasonable the more he thought about it, Old Yue, how is 1v2 a big deal? Youre a frost hunter, your farming isnt behind, and you have a long range. Why are you afraid of the other sides launcher? He continued, Little Ning, your spirit mage is an assassin mage. Use the shadow form and burst out with your ultimate move. Wheres the energy you had when you killed the top third ranked player in the world? Take it back out and kill him! Bai Cai hurried to answer before he even started, Laozi is just a healer. The demonic shaman was able to keep Close occupied by relying on its powerful control skills and ability to repair the tower. As a holy priest, what could he do? He couldnt control others and keep them occupied. Was he supposed to sing (heal) to himself? Wei Xiao chuckled, Our defense towers are all broken anyway. Those who are barefoot cant be afraid of those who wear shoes. Since they have their top-jungler linkage, well also do a top-jungler linkage and kill them all! Bai Cai: Could you please stop laughing like a villain?! Lu Feng: Sure. Bai Cai: What could he say? Really, what could he say? Both daddies wanted to charge up, so he could only rush up and warm up his voice! The 16 teams in the banquet hall, the two commentators on the stage, and the tens of thousands of spectators stalking the live broadcast room all felt that the game was already over. L&P was very strong. FTW was also very excellent. Although they would lose, FTW had given hope to countless fans, lightened their hearts, and given them unlimited expectations for the near future. It was over. This battle was already enough. The onlookers all thought so, but then they saw the FTW that was acting like a fierce wolf! Over? Give up? Stop? As long as the resurrection crystal was still there, the game wasnt over yet! Holy shit, FTW is They actually learned on the spot and started to make use of it! L&Ps top-jungler linkage, FTW is doing it too! Can they really do that Not only was the audience stunned; even L&P was stunned. In the second half of the game, FTW had fallen into a complete decline and could only protect their resurrection crystal from their base. L&P wasnt in a hurry. As long as they controlled the soldiers from across the three lanes and captured the ancient creatures to ensure that their team was in peak condition, they could defeat FTW in one fell swoop. FTW, which had originally retreated into a huddled group, started to move again. First of all, mid-lanes Ning Zhehan actually rushed out of the base and started to pester VIVIs immortal warlock. The frost hunter in the bottom jungle zone also came out and started to kite the launcher with its little figure. This didnt matter much. At this time, them charging out alone was equivalent to simply sending their heads over to the other side. However Just as L&Ps bottom laner and support wanted to kill Yue Wenle, the berserker warrior, immortal thief, and holy priest all charged out of the bushes. L&Ps marksman was caught by surprise, F*ck! The demonic shaman quickly acted as a shield for its own teams marksman. Unfortunately, the immortal thief used its ultimate move and landed a full set of skills on him, quickly killing the marksman. The demonic shaman reacted very quickly. He began to retreat, wanting to wait for Yuan Ze and Gary to provide support. Unfortunately The frost hunters slow debuff poked at him over and over, the immortal thiefs linked skills came together, and the berserker warriors blade swept over continuously. The demonic shaman used all of its recovery and heal skills but was still unable to hold on. Commentator A: FTW hasnt given up! They actually fought their way out and killed two people from L&P! Marshal and Gary have killed the ancient creatures and taken both dragon buffs. Quickly take a look at the mid-lane. FTWs mid-lane beat VIVI into retreat! The live broadcast room had also exploded, Amazing, they were able to seize the opportunity and attack! Ning Zhehans pretty good, his spirit mage is excellent. He was actually able to beat VIVI into retreat. However, Yuan Ze is making his way over. Little Nings done for. Trading one life for two isnt a loss. FTWs die-hard fans burst out into passionate tears, Our babies are so fierce, its making me cry like a dog. They want to win, they really want to win. They did their best, they really did their best. Theyve really done the best they can! Even the haters gave a fair evaluation, This years FTW is strong. In the last round of team fights, both sides had really exerted their strength to the utmost. Ning Zhehan was killed by Yuan Ze. L&Ps marksman and support were killed by Wei Xiao and Close. There were seven people still standing in the canyon. L&Ps Yuan Ze, Gary, and VIVI, who were all in full health. All four of FTWs remaining team members were healed back to full health by Bai Cais ultimate move. 3v4. It may seem as though FTW had the advantage, but everyone was worried about them. The gap in their economy was too big. At this time, all three members of L&P had full sets of gear, and Gary and Marshal even had done enough farming to switch seamlessly between resurrection armor and invincible gear. In contrast, although FTW had four people, only Close had a full set of gear. Even Wei Xiao was half a piece short, not to mention Yue Wenle and Bai Cai. The frost hunters farming wasnt very good and could only wait for death. Bai Cai had just used his ultimate move and only had three skills left. The amount of healing he could provide had dropped sharply. What to do? Should they attack or retreat? Wei Xiao looked at the minimap, Attack! Lu Feng: Mm. They had no way to retreat. What they could doCC Was to give it their best! Yue Wenle inhaled lightly and said, Brother Cai, dont worry about me. As he spoke, he launched all his skills at VIVI and attempted to take away L&Ps core DPS dealer with his explosive DPS attacks. Unfortunately, VIVIs hand speed was amazing, and he linked up his skills immediately, taking flight with a series of moves. His ultimate move, flying in the clouds, made him immune to the burst damage. At the same time, he launched countless streaks of thunder attacks that were concentrated on Yue Wenles body. Yue Wenle fell. Wei Xiao didnt say a single word. He rushed up and stabbed at the immortal warlock with his blade even before he could land. Yue Wenles screen went dark, but his heart jumped up to this throat, Careful! Yuan Ze has gone around the back! The other sides actions were faster than Yue Wenles voice. Wei Xiao hadnt yet had a chance to use his movement skill when Yuan Zes bright red blade stabbed into his back. Damn it! Bai Cai rushed up and tossed out all his skills, healing Wei Xiao crazily. He used a directional skill and was so busy healing Wei Xiao that he didnt have time to take care of himself. Garys scythe flew over and locked on Bai Cai. He killed him and sent him back home! The commentators: Its 2v2 now! Both sides are left with their top-laner and jungler. These two teams with strong top-jungler combos are having the ultimate showdown! The four people on the field moved faster than the commentators could speak. Not long ago, Yuan Ze and Gary had lost to Close and Wei Xiao in a doubles competition. In this 5v5, would the top-jungler legends be defeated again? In this four person team fight, the skills were dazzling, and the special effects were gorgeous, matching up with exquisite positioning and operations. The berserker thief locked onto the immortal thief. Wei Xiao was just waiting for Old G to pull him over. At the moment when he approached, he released all three of his skills, followed by basic attacks it was so fast that it dazzled the eye, and it was followed by the immortal thiefs ultimate moveCCten thousand swords split the sky! It was a very beautiful skill. The special effects of this ultimate move werent much worse than the shadow thiefs eight light arcs. Shining silver longswords fell from the sky, this well-positioned strike ringing in the ears as Old Gs health plummeted down to a critical state. If Wei Xiao landed another basic attack, hed be able to kill him! At such a critical time, Wei Xiao certainly wouldnt make any mistakes. He swept his blade across and pierced Old G. Old G fell to the ground. Bai Cai: Gary has resurrection armor! Wei Xiao: Yeah. He then called out, Captain, help! The immortal thief whod used up all his skills definitely didnt dare to fight against the berserker thief that was about to resurrect on the spot. So he asked Close for help. Lu Feng had been exchanging blows with Yuan Ze. The two of them were having a close fight and neither side had the advantage. Reasonably speaking, Lu Feng wouldnt be able to pull away. However He sent Yuan Ze flying with a hit and used this gap that lasted less than half a second to slash down at the berserker thief nearby. The distance was calculated just right. The berserker warriors range of attack was extended when it was in its berserk state and could just reach Gary. Garys heart pounded, Shit! Hed managed to stand up again with his resurrection armor, but he was only at a third of his health. How could he hold up against the berserker warriors blade? It was a pity that his own captain hadnt come to save him. Yuan Ze: Wait, Ill avenge you. He charged forward and applied a deceleration effect, then went around Lu Feng to stab Wei Xiao in the chest. The immortal thiefs white clothing flared out around him. He would receive a blood mark bonus after taking damage. The crimson red color contrasted sharply against the snow white clothing. Wei Xiaos health bar plummeted. Seeing that he was about to die, he quickly used his last three skills to encircle Yuan Ze. Captain, kill him! The berserker warriors berserk state was about to disappear. After killing Gary, Lu Feng didnt waste any time at all. He used the basic attack that was strengthened by his ultimate move and cleaved at Yuan Ze with everything he had. Yuan Ze had no way to avoid him and died at the same time as Wei Xiao. It was a fierce battlefield, a brilliant canyon. Only one person remained. The berserker warrior who had just come out of its berserk state was covered in broken pieces of heavy armor, with a body full of wounds. Defeat! Close was alive. FTW lost. In the final team battle, FTW had killed all five people from L&P, winning the last round of team fights. Unfortunately, FTW lost to L&P. Because, long before the team fight began, L&P, who had captured the two ancient creatures, was already invincible. As early as before the fight began, Wei Xiao, whod looked at the minimap, knew what the result would beCC Regardless of whether they won or lost this team fight. FTWs resurrection crystal wouldnt be able to hold up. The flames from nine dragons were enough to burn down everything. In the situation where they would definitely lose, they still chose to fight until the end. Losing was nothing. The most important thing was to do their best! In a game, having no regrets was the real victory. FTW lost to L&P, but they were still greeted with a wave of cheers. It had been too wonderful. This indomitable spirit, this courage when faced with a strong enemy, this perseverance that led them to fight to the very end. What was the charm in competitive gaming? It was the brilliant glory that appeared after everyone in the field gave their best efforts! xiin: ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!! Chapter 72.1: Experiencing the tiredness that comes after a climax The commentators spoke at a super fast pace and gave a brief review of the battle that had already come to an end. FTW lost, and L&P won. But at this time, all of them were true winners. The ten people who had thoroughly enjoyed the battlefield were all worthy of applause and praise. Commentator A: FTWs last wave was really unfortunate. If the gap in farming had been smaller, and Quiet had a full set of gear, it would be hard to say who would have won. Its already very impressive that their mentality didnt collapse after facing off against that kind of cohesive action. FTWs mid-laner Silvery was very crucial. Although he fell at first, he managed to force VIVI back and block Yuan Ze, giving his teammates a chance to kill L&Ps marksman. The whole game was wonderful, but the thing that nobody could forget was FTWs last counterattack. Their defense towers were completely broken, and their lane soldiers had all been under their opponents control. They couldnt touch the ancient creatures at all and were stuck in their base waiting to be abused. Since they were sure to lose, they might as well go out and fight. If they went out, they would have a chance to snatch control back over the lane soldiers. If they went out, theyd have a chance to win a group fight before their opponents took both dragon buffs. Going out gave them a chance to use their lives to find an opportunity to win. FTW had indeed gone out to fight! Theyd first killed two people, torn down L&Ps tight defenses, then drawn out a bright flower of hope despite the desperate situation. Unfortunately, they were up against L&P, a global championship team that had been thoroughly awakened from their slumber. Their control over timing, their understanding of the operations, and their overall battle situation planning was far superior to that of the immature FTW. Yuan Ze and Gary had each taken down an ancient creature, and the ancient blessings that shone on their bodies gave their stats a comprehensive boost. The three high mobility players from L&P had all circled around, and FTW had no way out. Even if they could see the lane soldiers, even if they knew that the dragons would spray fire at the resurrection crystal, even if winning or losing was a forgone conclusion regardless of the outcome of their current team battle. Theyd still chosen to fight. Retreat would only lead to a worse death. But there was still a chance for survival if they fought. This was the judgment that Wei Xiao had made at the time. As long as they killed L&P three seconds earlier, their captain, who was still alive, could use the teleportation skill that was already off cooldown to return home and protect their resurrection crystal. Unfortunately There wasnt really any need for the unfortunately. Theyd already done their best. Those last three seconds was their growth target. This goal required time and honing. It had to be accumulated gradually! The game was over. Wei Xiao leaned back in his chair, Nice! Bai Cai laughed at him, We lost, damnit. Whats so nice about that. Ning Zhehan breathed lightly, Although we lost, it felt great. Old Yue nodded, Yeah, really great. It felt better than the matches theyd won before. Wei Xiao was amused, Brothers, you guys are pretty good. Are you all quaking masochists? How about we solo when we get back, and Ill let you feel even better than great. ah, ouch The captain had flicked him on the forehead. Lu Feng: Time to go. Wei Xiao followed suit and stood up even as he whined quietly to Bai Cai, Thats not good, is the captain jealous? Will he end up keeping me out of the room tonight?! Brother Vegetable staggered and almost performed how to land flat on ones face on the stage, Shut up, you! Both sides shook hands. L&Ps mid-laner VIVI held Ning Zhehans hand firmly. Little Ning was very stubborn and gripped back just as tightly. The two of them had fought against each other in the arena, then fought over their grip strength after the match. A real man couldnt lose anywhere! Reasonably speaking, Yuan Ze should shake hands with Close, who was also a top-laner. However, he went to stand in front of Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao reluctantly held out his hand. Yuan Ze lowered his voice and said, L&Ps main doors are open to you Wei Xiao: Heh Before he could mock these words, Yuan Ze had already finished the rest of his sentence, To come and challenge us any time. Wei Xiaos eyebrows rose up. He understood what he meant. This doggy thing was finally acting like a human being. Wei Xiao grasped his hand, used strength, and said, Just wait. Next time Ill make you guys try your best. Yuan Zes hand hurt. He secretly cursed that this brat was really strong, but he had to pretend that it was nothing on the surface. Im looking forward to it. On the other side, Gary was also trying to trash talk with Lu Feng with his broken Chinese, Ill garlic you next time Lu Feng was expressionless, You can use English. Gary: Yuan Ze dragged away his own silly idiot and said goodbye to Lu Feng, See you later. Lu Feng was slightly stunned, and the corners of his lips raised up slightly, See you later. Wei Xiao stuck his head over. He seemed to sense that something was off and asked as soon as they got off the stage, Captain, is see you later some kind of secret code? Chen Feng, whod just been about to give them a hug full of love, was stunned. Tang Chen who was to the side laughed loudly, Marshal said it, right? In the old FTW, they would say see you later every time they lost in a solo game, which means that theyll beat you up next time. Wei Xiao caught onto the key point, Captain, you used to solo often with Old Bandit Yuan. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao fought to make sure he was the one sitting next to the captain even as he asked, How often? Chen Feng: . Wei Xiao was relentless, Was it more often than we do?! Bai Cais brain hurt, Brother Xiao, your vinegar smell is wafting over to us in the back seat. Wei Xiao was full of righteousness, I dont care, I cant lose to Old Dog Yuan! Lu Feng whispered something to him. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up instantly, Oh yeah, you two were together for more than a year, but well be together for a lifetime. In that case, well be playing together more often! Bai Cai died an instant death against the back of the seat. Chen Feng: Be careful when showing love and stay away from small animals! After FTW and L&Ps explosive opening game, the following game was a bit boring in comparison. The Black Knights who were in second place were very chivalrous and selected the 6th place team. Both sides were steady, and the entire banquet hall grew a little drowsy. The audience watching the live broadcast left some interesting scrolling commentsCC Sorry, fellow brothers. Im experiencing the tiredness that comes after a climax. Although the words were crude, and although he was muted afterwards, this fellow brother had given voice to countless peoples thoughts. FTW and L&Ps fight had really had repeated high peaks and climaxes. The audience had followed them and gotten incredibly high and excited. When watching this match that was more like a bowl of clean and simple soup, they suddenly felt that it was very tasteless in their mouths. The third game wasnt bad though. Pro felt true love for 3U and chose them again. Asleep and Cong Yi targeted Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran desperately, and both sides played wonderfully. Although 3U ultimately lost, the audience still gave this team a very high evaluation. In this years winter training competition, China competition zones four teams were all very brilliant. FTW went without saying; they were like a deep-water torpedo that had exploded throughout Glorys 2021 competition scene. 3U wasnt much worse. The pajamas combos eye-catching operations gave the entire China competition zone a lot of hope for the global doubles competition. RRs situation in Group B was similar to FTWs in that theyd managed to pull aggro across the entire scene with their own efforts. Moonlit and Xie He had such a bloody exchange that the competition committee had to make a strategic decision to change the rules. TPT seemed to be the most low-key. Other than the scandal between Eurostar and Y1s Yan Jiang, there was no other big news from them. Fans familiar with the team understood that TPTs data emperor had already stripped down all the teams in Group B, and if he listed all the data, RRs Money would probably be willing to risk running out of money to buy, buy, buy After the points competition was over, everyone dispersed and went back to their training rooms. Coach Chen Feng obtained a recording of the fight and turned on the projector when he returned to the training room. He placed both hands on the table and looked at the five starters, Very good. When the Poison-tongued Queen said these two words, Yue Wenle, who was usually in a daze, was shocked silly. Ning Zhehan was a little excited and sat up straighter. When they normally went over the game, Chen Feng picked out their faults until they could die, and he would never stop until hed hammered them until they were dejected and in low spirits. Although Ning Zhehan joined the team late, hed also already experienced this Chen-style attack. It felt worse than being killed by the opponent in the game. Todays Chen Feng didnt say any heavy words at all. The entire review process was abnormally smooth and basically filled with praise. FTW had shown many problems during this game. Even without mentioning the bottom lane and support, just Wei Xiao and Lu Feng had already made a lot of mistakes. Chen Feng was never polite to Lu Feng. So what if he was the great demon king? So what if he was the boss? As someone whod watched him grow up (not), Mother Hen Chen concerned himself with actual events, not people! Tang Chens ears were itchy, Can you speak properly Bai Cai nodded emphatically. Chen Feng: Coach Chen, whod managed to be gentle for ten minutes, blew up, What, does your skin start to itch for a beating if I say some good words? Do you really need to be scolded? Bai Cai, dont you feel embarrassed when you nod? Were you sleepwalking in the bottom lane? You didnt hear the teleportation sound? Yuan Ze suddenly rushed in, and you werent even able to launch an ultimate move. What kind of fart holy priest are you playing?! Brother Vegetable: Tang Chen: Mm, thats how it should be. The training room burst out into laughter. Chen Feng looked at the group of cubs who were in a good state of mind and didnt hide anything anymore. He reverted back to his true colors and scolded them into bloody dogs. At the end of the scolding, he still couldnt hold back and boasted, You guys fought really well. They really had. It was the best FTW game hed seen in the many years hed been a coach. During the time when the Team of Gods was active, hed gone on to become a data analyst after retiring and hadnt been a coach. When the Team of Gods disbanded, the coaching team had also scattered everywhere. When Close came to find him, Chen Feng had been terrified, Will I be able to do it? Close had said, If I can be the head of a club, then why cant you be a coach? Chen Feng had looked at this youth who was much younger than him and gritted his teeth, Okay! After three years of ups and downs, Chen Feng wanted to see a complete team more than anyone else. And this year, he finally did. A FTW that was able to play out with momentum despite being beaten by a global champion team! It was exciting and stimulating on the stage, but it wasnt the same off-stage. If it hadnt been for how Chen Feng loved his dignity, he might even have been forced to tears. He couldnt bear to scold them. Even if thered been some small mistakes, the five players in the game had fought hard until the very end. Being inexperienced was okay. Not having enough experience was okay. It didnt matter if their game consciousness wasnt great None of those things were a problem as long as they didnt give up the game, didnt dodge from hardship, and had a heart that wanted to win. They were the best! By the time they finished going over the game, it was half past ten. Chen Feng wanted them to continue ranking on the international server. Wei Xiaos hands were itchy, Lets play as a team of five. He looked at Lu Feng with eager eyes as though fearing that the captain would have something else to do. Lu Feng stilled, Fine with me. Wei Xiao immediately grew excited, Come, come, come, lets do it. Top-jungler linkage, lets study it further! Theyd only done a single wave of it during the training match, and it really wasnt satisfying. He wanted to try it again! Lu Feng didnt have a problem with it, and the others didnt, either. It was only Bai Cai who said, Wait for me, Im going to squat on the toilet first. Wei Xiao was anxious enough to die, Hurry up, hurry up. Im sacrificing solo time for a five person queue, dont mess with me! Thats right, hed even let go of a great chance to solo with Lu Feng in order to play as a team of five. The sacrifice was huge. Bai Cai was very reasonable, If Laozis state isnt good, youll curse me for being a vegetable. Wei Xiao inexplicably felt that this sentence seemed a little flavorful and waved his hand, Go quickly and come back quickly! While they were waiting for Bai Cai, Wei Xiao felt aggrieved and turned to look at Lu Feng, Captain Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao asked, What time are you going to bed tonight? Lu Feng always slept at midnight, and even lightning couldnt change his schedule. However, everyone was in a good state tonight, and a little later was fine, One oclock. Wei Xiao was full of heartache, Look, well have no time to solo. Lu Fengs eyes were stained with a hint of a smile, There really isnt time. Wei Xiao felt wronged to death, Then, can I save it? Lu Feng: ? Wei Xiao: Save tonights solo for another time when were free Lu Feng indulged him, Okay. Wei Xiao was greedy again, Then, can I accumulate interest? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao really admired his own wisdom and intelligence, I have one round of solo tonight. If its saved for five days, itll turn into five games! Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle, who were across from them, were dazed: That was such a high interest loan! What kind of interest was so crazy! Oh, it was Lunatic Weis brand of interest. Lu Feng turned to look at him. Wei Xiao wasnt scared of his cold expression. He acted coquettish and said, How about it? Look at how I gave up on soloing tonight on my own initiative for the sake of the team The tips of Lu Fengs ears that were blocked by his hair quivered slightly, Okay. Little Ning and Yue: The captain lost even before Wei Xiao finished his coquettish act. Wei Xiao beamed with joy, Captain, youre so nice! I like The three words you the most hadnt yet been said when Lu Feng interrupted him, Go kill soldiers. Wei Xiao: Eh? Lu Feng reverted back to the great demon kings true colors, If you had been in full gear in the last wave, what would the result have been. Wei Xiao: The naughty child withered in a second, and Lu Feng started to feel a little distressed. Wei Xiao: Yeah! If I had six full pieces of gear, the damage dealt would definitely have been different! He wouldve been able to kill Old Dog Yuan at least two seconds earlier. In that case FTW may have been able to win! Wei Xiao had never been aggrieved when it came to proper business. He immediately went to open up his own custom game and kill soldiers. Ning Zhehan followed suit quickly. Old Yue put down his potato chips and also started killing soldiers while waiting for Brother Cai. Chapter 72.2: My father doesnt deserve to have such a good son as you After Bai Cai came back, the five of them teamed up and played until around one oclock. Tacit understanding between players in the team had to be cultivated slowly. It wasnt something that would happen with just one persons hard work. In particular, the cohesion between Wei Xiao and the others needed more constant honing. When it was almost time to sleep, Lu Feng got up and said, Rest early. Theres still free matching tomorrow. The four little ones all sat up straight, Goodnight, captain! Lu Feng: Goodnight. He left first. Ning Zhehan whispered, The captains biological clock is really healthy It really wasnt considered late for an e-sports player to go to bed at 1AM. The Close worshipper came online, and Wei Xiao said, We cant catch up with the captain even though hes not addicted to training. If he was the same as us, then wed Oh, the entire league wont be left with any way to live. Brother Vegetable: Little Ning showed a lot of potential for accompanying Wei Xiao for crosstalk, That makes sense. Old Yue almost choked on his potato chip! After Lu Feng left, they went to double queue. Wei Xiao refused to take the vegetable with him. As of now, his tacit understanding with Brother Vegetable was very stable, and they didnt need to improve it further. So, he focused on Ning Zhehan instead. In 5v5 games, the mid-jungler linkage was a very key concept. In the distance was EVEs immortal mid-laner Xie He. The cooperation between him and his captain could stir up a frenzied battle in their opponents jungle zone. Nearby, there was also RRs Moonlit and Money. These two had been able to make EVE unwilling to let them go, and would also be strong rivals after they returned home. Ning Zhehans personal level was very outstanding. What he lacked was the experience, honing, and cooperation with his teammates. As the jungler who led the rhythm of the game, Wei Xiao needed to develop good tacit understanding with him. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were old partners. Theyd worked together for a season, and theyd felt that they had enough tacit understanding between them. However, in todays training match, theyd been regarded as the breakthrough point. At this time, they were also upset and eager to find their game sense. They double queued until three in the morning. Bai Cai: Its about time to sleep. The free matching during the day wont wait for us. Ning Zhehan and Wei Xiao had also just finished a game, Okay, lets disperse. Little Ning and Yue Wenle got up, stretched, and left to return to their room together. Bai Cai left one step behind, but noticed Wei Xiao, Youre not going to sleep? Wei Xiao yawned, Soon. Bai Cai was alert, Dont stay up late, theres still tough battles to be had during the day. Wei Xiao waved his hand, Got it. Bai Cai didnt worry about him anymore and went back to his room to wash up and sleep. The training room emptied out. Wei Xiao logged out of the game and opened up the video recording from yesterday. Chen Feng had already done a review of the game with them. It was a 40 minute game, but the replay review had lasted for an hour and a half. It wasnt considered long, but all the points that shouldve been said had been mentioned. Wei Xiao curled up in the e-sports chair and used the mouse to look over the match again bit by bit. Close killed Marshal. Close killed Gary. Close killed MO. 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 42 minutes The final team fight had lasted for longer than hed thought. VIVI killed Yue Wenle. He killed VIVI. Gary killed Bai Cai. Close killed Gary. He and Yuan Ze took each other down. Only Close was left alive. In the instant when the resurrection crystal exploded, the berserker warrior who stood alone in the canyon was like a war god of old, standing in the fierce battlefield with the ruins of a city behind him To exist after the death of ones country, tragic and helpless. Wei Xiao pressed on the pause button and looked steadily at this scene. The living Close. The standing Close. The Close who was on his own. His heart churned, and the remorse that had been forced down surged up again. Hed said that he wouldnt leave him on his own, said that he wouldnt drag him down, said that hed be a worthy teammate, but Wei Xiao stared at the screen, and the scene that appeared in his mind was of Close standing alone in FTWs main hall and watching as his teammates went away. The 18 year old captain. The captain who carried everything on his young shoulders. The captain who was softer than anyone else beneath his cold and hard appearance. He knew what it was like to be left behind, the feeling of having to hold on and being unable to fall, the fear that once he collapsed, hed be left with nothing left. So, he felt heartache for Close. The more he understood, the more heartache he felt. The more heartache he felt, the more unwilling he was to see him suffer even the smallest amount of grievance. Even if he knew that hed already done his best in this game. But, he still didnt want to leave Close on his own. Close was so good, so why was he left behind? There was a squeak. The door to the training room opened, startling Wei Xiao. He closed the video. Lu Feng stood outside the door in black pajamas. His collar was open, and a large expanse of his chest was revealed beneath his long neck, appearing colder and paler than usual against the dark cloth. Its five oclock. Lu Feng frowned, making his usual distant aura go up another level and giving off the feeling that ordinary people were expected to bow their heads and avoid him in passing. Wei Xiao wasnt afraid, though. He was just a little surprised, Captain, you havent slept yet? Lu Feng: I woke up. Hed gone back to wash up, then gone to sleep. When he woke up just now, hed found that there was nobody in the bed beside him. He hadnt thought that when he pushed open the door to the training room, hed see Wei Xiao curled up in the e-sports chair, hugging his knees and staring at the computer screen. From Lu Fengs point of view, he didnt know what Wei Xiao was looking at, but he could see Wei Xiaos mannerCC It looked like he was about to cry. Having gotten used to seeing his fearless demeanor, Lu Feng was caught by surprise and felt like his heart had been pierced by Wei Xiaos appearance. He wasnt frowning because Wei Xiao was sleeping so late, but because he was so sad. Whats the matter? Lu Feng came over to look at his computer. The screen was empty. There was no game interface, nor was there anything else. Wei Xiao was too embarrassed to say itCChe was the noob one who couldnt keep up with the captain. How could he trash talk about that? Nothing really. Lu Feng looked into his eyes and held it for a long time before asking gently, Missing your grandma? The only one who could make Wei Xiao like this was his dead grandmother. Lu Feng still remembered how fiercely Wei Xiaoxiao had cried when he saw the things his grandma had left behind. Wei Xiao: It was fine when this matter wasnt brought up, but once it was, he couldnt hold it in anymore. He missed his grandma, but he wasnt thinking of her just now. However, Lu Feng had used such a gentle tone when he mentioned his grandma, making the high walls that were erected in Wei Xiaos heart collapse in an instant. Fragile uncertainty crowded out and occupied all his emotions. Lu Feng was stunned, Dont, dont cry. He was incredibly distressed, but he didnt know how to coax him. Wei Xiao was definitely the kind of child who wouldnt cry. He hadnt learned how to cry as a child, so he only knew to silently shed tears. It seemed that he only needed to feel sad on his own and didnt need anyone to know. CCOnly when a child knew that crying would be useless would they shed tears to themselves. Lu Feng pulled him into his arms and pressed his head against his shoulder, Be good, Little Xiao, dont cry. Wei Xiaos tears flowed even harder: These were the words that his grandma had written in her diary. Lu Feng was so full of heartache that he didnt know what to do, Its okay, in the future, FTW will be your home. Wei Xiao shifted slightly, and his warm breath blew against Lu Fengs ear, Captain The nerves along Lu Fengs back were tense, and he almost pushed him away. Wei Xiaos voice was soft, Is FTW your home too? Lu Feng was stunned for a moment. Half a beat later, he whispered, Mm. Wei Xiao was half a head shorter than him and his chin fell onto his shoulder, So, are we a family? Lu Fengs heart suddenly jumped in his chest, If you want Wei Xiao immediately answered, I want! Lu Feng breathed in lightly, Then dont cry anymore. In the future, Ill be your family. His grandma was irreplaceable, but the reason why Wei Xiao was so sad must be because he had no home. He clearly still had parents, but he lived like an orphan. Sometimes, it was more painful to have a home yet be unable to return, than to not have a home at all. Lu Feng understood. Wei Xiao pillowed his head against his shoulder and laughed a little. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao got up and looked at him, So, Captain, what should I call you? Seeing the familiar smile, Lu Fengs heart relaxed slightly, Hm? Hed been focused on Wei Xiao and hadnt paid attention to what he was saying. Wei Xiao was thinking very seriously, Family, right? Isnt it mom and dad and brother and sister. Lu Feng had a vague guess. Wei Xiaos eyes formed crescent moons filled with banter, Youre a man and older than me, so the only options are father and elder brother. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao: Elder brother? Lu Feng: ! Wei Xiao frowned, No way, my father doesnt deserve to have such a good son as you. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: Then, it can only be Lu Feng couldnt continue listening anymore. He turned and walked out, If you still dont go to sleep, Ill have Tang Chen replace you for the free matching tomorrow afternoon. Wei Xiao was shocked, Theres still the training match in the evening! If Tang Chen played in the free matching tomorrow, then he would be the one to play in the training match. Lu Feng: Tang Chen can play top-lane, Ill jungle. Its not a problem. Wei Xiao followed behind him, How can that be okay? Captain, you dont like playing jungler! Lu Feng sneered, Playing once in a while feels fresh. Wei Xiao was sad and bitter, What do you mean? Just now, you said that FTW is my home, and now you dont want me anymore! The great demon king took him back to their room and closed the door behind them. Wei Xiao blinked and surrendered, I was wrong, in the future Ill be obedient and go to bed early and get up early. Dad, dont drive me out of the house! Lu Feng threw the bath towel at him, Go wash up. Wei Xiao caught it, Okay! He went to the bathroom, then stuck his head out again, Dad~! The end note was light and melodious, and not very proper. Lu Feng: . He tried to hold on but couldnt hold back anymore. The great demon king broke down, Shut up! It was rare that he could play a prank on the captain. Wei Xiao was really amused and hid in the bathroom to laugh uproariously. Family, hey. He and Close were family. Wei Xiaos heart felt like it was coated in a layer of honey, so sweet that he was stuck in a beautiful dream. Chapter 73.1: Wei Xiao: My waist hurts. 20 minutes later, Lu Feng, whod closed his eyes and dozed off, was unsurprised to find someone drilling into his arms. Lu Feng extended his arms to give him a better position. Hed played so fiercely against L&P during the training match that evening, then stayed up until five oclock in the morning. It would be strange if Wei Xiao didnt sleepwalk. He fell asleep immediately after getting into bed, and it didnt take long for him to climb into Lu Fengs bed. Two big men were crowded into a single bed. Even if the hotel bed was quite spacious, it was still quite a tight fit. If he didnt want to fall out of bed, theyd have to stick close together. The tip of Lu Fengs nose was filled with the light scent of Wei Xiaos shower gel. It was a light verbena fragrance, like lemon slices soaked in honey, fresh and sweet. He opened his eyes slightly to see Wei Xiaos quiet, sleeping face. He was a little demon when he was awake, but more like an angel than anyone else when he was sleeping. This description that was used for children was inexplicably suitable when used for Wei Xiao. Thinking of his dad that had sounded as soft as a cats paw, the corner of Lu Fengs lips curled up. He leaned close to Wei Xiao, toward his forehead, so lightly that it fell like the softest of feathers. Full of restraint as he suppressed the thoughts fermenting in his mind, as though afraid to wake up the person in his dreamsCC Then, kissed him softly. Lu Feng usually got up between 7:30 and 8:00. He hugged Wei Xiao and went back to sleep for another hour or two, but his dreams were too beautiful, and his sleep was too sweet. By the time he woke up, it was almost 10 oclock. Wei Xiao was still in his arms and hadnt changed position, still pressed close to him. Lu Feng had discovered last time that this kid would toss and turn when he was sleeping alone, and no matter how big the bed was, it wouldnt be able to hold him. However, once Wei Xiao was near him, he would sleep soundly, almost like he was pretending to be asleep, remaining in the same position stuck close to him. He wasnt pretending but really sleeping deeply. Why was that? Was it because he was uneasy? Lu Feng sighed in his heart and gently extracted his numb arm. Wei Xiao frowned, Mm. Lu Feng didnt dare to move again and let him sleep on his palm. Hed always thought that his face was small, but it turned out to be this smallCC Lu Feng thought of his nickname and couldnt help calling out to him in a low voice, Little Xiao. Wei Xiao seemed to have heard him in his dreams and rubbed his cheek into his palm. He spoke dreamily, Dad In the quiet room, the sound reached Lu Fengs ears very clearly. Lu Feng was stunned for a moment, his chest filling up with bitterness. No matter how irresponsible a father was, no matter how much a child was neglected and left behind. What child wouldnt be eager for love? Father, mother Who wouldnt want this unique type of affection The stronger one was, the more vulnerable they were. The more one had to forcibly support oneself, the more uneasy they were inside. Beneath that careless appearance, there was often an extremely sensitive heart. Lu Feng maintained this stuff posture until Wei Xiao fell back into a deep sleep. By the time he pulled his arm out, it was already numb all the way from his hand to his shoulder. Lu Feng endured the discomfort and swung his arm, suffering through the needle-like prickling sensation. Many people had already gotten up by half past ten. Lu Feng didnt hesitate to go running the way he always did. The hotel had a gym. Although it wasnt as comfortable as the one at their base, the standard equipment was all there, and it was enough for his use. When he arrived, Lu Feng ran into Kim Sung-hyun, who was covered in sweat from exercising. Kim Sung-hyun was a little surprised, So late? Lu Feng couldnt just say that hed overslept because hed been hugging Wei Xiaoxiao and only said, I had something to do in the morning. Kim Sung-hyun understood that as the head of a club, he had many things to deal with, Take it easy. Dont mess around with your body just because youre young. Lu Feng: Yes. Kim Sung-hyun was covered in sweat and was anxious to go back and shower, Go for it, Im leaving. Lu Feng didnt speak much and always minded his own business, but he still asked a little extra at this time, Wheres God Ran. The corners of Kim Sung-hyuns mouth instantly tensed up, and he said, His old problems have flared up again. Lu Feng had guessed it. Kim Sung-hyun was usually too lazy to exercise. Normally, he would only go to the gym due to Li Herans urging. For him to come to the gym on his own initiative, it must mean Kim Sung-hyun was a little irritable, The team has a physiotherapist. Itll be fine after a few days. Lu Feng replied, Mm. Kim Sung-hyun was feeling depressed as he waved his hand and left. Lu Feng entered the gym and worked up a full sweat. In Pros training room, Kim Sung-hyun looked at Li Herans pale face, and his words were cold even if he felt uncomfortable in his heart, I told you to reduce your training, but you didnt listen. Li Heran: Its alright. Kim Sung-hyun was both distressed and angry, Youre a support. Why are you working so hard? You dont need to kill soldiers, I wont miss a single one. Li Heran: Mm. Kim Sung-hyun knew how physiotherapy felt. His wrist was already injured, and after being pulled and pressed during therapy, it was painful enough to make ones scalp numb. His voice grew lower and he dropped to a half crouch in front of Li Heran to look at him, Big bro, we agreed that wed retire together. A small smile flowed out on Li Herans face, I remember. Kim Sung-hyuns heart was a jumble of mixed emotions, Theres still three years to go. Li Heran comforted him, Its fine, the doctor also said its not a big deal. Kim Sung-hyun didnt want to influence him with his own negative emotions and nodded, Dont go downstairs to eat. Ill bring something up for you in a bit. Li Heran: Okay. Kim Sung-hyun spoke again just before leaving the room, I asked for leave for you during the free matching in the afternoon. Rest well after your physiotherapy session. Li Heran frowned, Arent we going to choose FTW for the training match this evening? If he didnt participate in the free matching today, he wouldnt be eligible for the training match in the evening. Yesterdays game between FTW and L&P had filled Kim Sung-hyun with enthusiasm. At the time, hed said that they would definitely pick FTW today. And there was also the new system to consider Kim Sung-hyun stood up and spoke slowly, You dont have to play. Well still win. Li Heran paused for a moment, If we miss out on today, the next time we can play against them will be ten days later. If it wasnt for me Although they could arrange training matches in private, the feeling of being in a competitive arena was different from playing together in private. This was something that everyone understood. Kim Sung-hyun looked at him, Its just a training match. Li Heran: But, you Kim Sung-hyun exhaled lightly, There will be more opportunities to play together in the future. Focus on your physiotherapy. There will still be many more opportunities later. Li Heran: Mm. Kim Sung-hyun went downstairs to the restaurant, but he had no appetite even when faced with the sumptuous buffet. Li Herans wrist injury wasnt serious. Almost everyone who played professionally had some sort of occupational problem. Inflammation of the cervical vertebrae, lumbar spine, shoulder tendons and wrist; high intensity training and difficult operations were doomed to overtax the body. Countless players were suffering from this or that injury. Kim Sung-hyun was absent-minded, and Pros jungler Park Guizhi didnt say much about it. Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran had deep ties. They were the doubles championship winners who had a strong tacit understanding, and they were also neighbors who grew up together as children, partners who had chosen to join Glorys professional e-sports circle together. Li Herans hand injury was something that made everyone in South Korea distressed. It had to be known that the strongest ADC in the world wasnt always Kim Sung-hyun. It used to be Li Heran. Now, Pros support position was Li Heran. After waking up, Wei Xiao was full of energy. It was the so-called raw the first time, cooked the second. By the third time he woke up in the captains bed, Wei Xiaoxiao was already extremely calm. Wasnt it just sleeping together in the same bed. They were family. What was there to nitpick about. When he thought about the word family, Wei Xiao was happy enough to burst out into flowers again. He was Closes family. FTW was their home. He had Close, and he also had FTW Wei Xiao rolled himself up in the quilt and rolled round and round on the bed. Plop. The Wei Xiao branded silkworm larva rolled itself onto the ground. Ouch Although Wei Xiao was wrapped up in the quilt, it still hurt when he fell down from the bed. He kneaded his waist and stood up, chagrined, Extreme joy begets sorrow. Grandma really didnt deceive me. Wei Xiao had dirtied Lu Fengs quilt and naturally couldnt put it back onto the bed. So, he balled it up and put it on the chair. He was about to make a phone call and ask the hotel to change the quilt Ding dongCC The doorbell rang, and Wei Xiao went to open the door. Old Bai was startled, Did you just wake up? Was he going to eat or not! Wei Xiao rubbed at his waist, I went to bed too late last night. Bai Cai: Didnt we disperse at three? Wei Xiao was embarrassed to talk about his own moodiness and said, I had something else to do after going back to the room Bai Cai: Three oclock in the morning The captain fell asleep way before that, right. What else could he have to do! Wei Xiao stared at him, Why do you care so much? Laozi slept very well and wont drag you guys down in the afternoon! Bai Cai noticed that he was kneading his waist and asked curiously, Whats wrong with your waist? Wei Xiao couldnt say that hed hurt himself rolling around on the bed and spoke vaguely, Tired. Bai Cai: ! He asked cautiously, Tired from last night? Wei Xiao: Yeah. Brother Cai was stunned, It happened after three oclock? Wei Xiao answered distractedly, Yeah. He needed to call the cleaner quickly, then go downstairs to eat. Brother Cai: About that are you calling the front desk? Wei Xiao had already dialed through. He placed a slender finger against his lip and made a shush movement. Bai Cai shut up. Wei Xiao spoke in fluent English, Hello, can you please help me change the quilt Yes Okay Thank you. Brother Vegetables English was really bad, and he was barely able to make out a little bit of it, Changing quilts? Wei Xiao pointed to the chair, Its dirty. Bai Cais eyes grew big as he stared, How-how did it get dirty? Wei Xiao hurried off to wash his face and brush his teeth, Its just dirty, why are you concerning yourself with how it got dirty! Bai Cais face was dazed. He looked at the messy sheets, then looked at the balled up quilt A baby pram whizzed by. Sleeping late, tired, kneading his waist, dirty quilt To hell with the baby pram, this was an obviously dirty, dirty, dirty big train!!! Brother Vegetable was dead. He died from the things his own brain had made up. When they went to eat, Wei Xiao looked around everywhere, Wheres the captain? Chen Feng: He woke up late and has something to do. Hell go directly to the training room. Wei Xiao was anxious, What about his food? Chen Feng paused for a moment, Its been sent over. Wei Xiao was very thoughtful, Dont touch this plate of celery, you guys. Ill send it over to him. The corner of Chen Fengs lips twitched, No need. Hes already eaten. In fact, he hadnt eaten yet, but Coach Chen couldnt bear to see a certain person have to work overtime to deal with work matters and still have to eat this bitterness. Wei Xiao sighed, Its all my fault that he got up late. Brother Vegetable: He was going to stab his knife and fork into the floor! Chapter 73.2: God Kim had a significant hobby When they went back to their training room after eating, they ran into L&Ps mid-laner VIVI. This big youth with blonde hair smiled brightly at them as he waved in greeting. Wei Xiao greeted him in return and added, Lets make an appointment when you guys have time. VIVI smiled but didnt agree or reject him, Work hard, you guys. Wei Xiao tried to urge him, Praise our FTW in front of your coaching team a few more times so that theyll definitely arrange for a training match. VIVI was equally lively, You guys should hurry and make it into the global competition. When the time comes, our coaching team will call you every day. Wei Xiao was quite reserved, When the time comes, well be very busy, and your L&P will have to get in line. VIVI knew a few phrases of Chinese, So, does that mean we should Take the initiative and gain the upper hand? Wei Xiao was surprised, Marshal actually knows how to teach people to speak Chinese properly? VIVI was regretful, Im self-taught. Wei Xiao: Fine, then. Just looking at God Kim and God G was enough to know that Old Dog Yuan wasnt a human being! During the free matching in the afternoon, Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan double queued together while Old Bai and Yue Wenle double queued together. After playing together for a few hours last night, Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan had started building some tacit understanding. Wei Xiao said, Our Little Ning is really more suited to playing the assassin mage. Ning Zhehan was more self-effacing, It depends on the line-up, it depends on the line-up. I dont mind playing anything. Wei Xiao: Be more confident. Your assassin mages are very fierce. if you were any fiercer, Id want to do you! Ning Zhehan: It was right at this moment that Lu Feng pushed the door open. Wei Xiao was instantly distracted, Captain, did you eat? Lu Feng glanced at Ning Zhehan, and Ning Zhehan immediately sat up straight. His hand even trembled slightly, Brother Cai, lets double queue together! Bai Cai: Me and Old Yue have already queued into a game. Ning Zhehans desire for survival burst out, Ill single queue then! Wei Xiao looked at him, What are you thinking? We should continue cultivating our tacit understanding. Little Ning wanted to cry Lu Feng retrieved his gaze and replied to Wei Xiao, I ate. Wei Xiaos eyes and heart were filled with the captain. He asked in concern, Did you eat celery? Lu Feng: . Chen Feng cleared his throat and said, He did. Wei Xiao: Coach, how do you know this? Like hell Chen Feng knew. He was just trying to save the situation. I know much more than you think. For example, your captain doesnt only like celery Even if Lu Feng could bear with it, he couldnt bear it any longer. Wei Xiao was interested, What else does the captain like to eat? As a family, it was too hard to explain if he didnt understand the other partys tastes. He needed to remember it properly. Chen Feng hesitated, then said, Beef. Wei Xiao: Who doesnt like beef? Chen Feng: Saltwater fish. Wei Xiao: Who doesnt like to eat saltwater fish? Bai Cai raised his hand, I dont. The well-known double standard Wei Xiaoxiao came online, Who cares about what you like to eat. Brother Vegetable: Wei Xiao continued to ask, What else? What else does the captain like to eat? Chen Feng thought hard, Potatoes? In fact, except for celery, coriander, and fennel, Close wasnt picky about food. Wei Xiao was amused, I like to eat all of those things. Lu Feng had noticed before that Wei Xiao did indeed prefer those things when they ate. Wei Xiao was regretful, Unfortunately, I dont like celery. Other than that, though, Im the same as the captain. A family with the same tastes was like a match made in heaven. Chen Fengs mouth twitched: In fact, your captain doesnt like it either. Brother Cai couldnt help interrupting, If you dont like eating it, then why did you give it to the captain! Wei Xiao: At the time, there was only celery left on the plate so I didnt have a choice. Fortunately, the captain likes celery. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao comforted Lu Feng, Its okay. In the future, our family Eh, well FTW can make stir-fried celery and beef. Ill eat the beef, and the captain can eat the celery. He linked at Lu Feng and stopped just short of asking to his face, Isnt that right, daddy~ They probably wouldnt be able to get past this thing with the celery. Lu Feng pressed down on his head lightly, Go score points. Wei Xiao: Kay! At 6PM, the days point ranking was announced. 1st place: Pro. 2nd place: L&P. 3rd place: Tomorrow. Ever since yesterdays regulation kicked in, free matching instantly grew fiercer. Many of the teams that had been at the bottom started to score points like crazy in order to obtain the qualifications to compete for the prize pool on the last day. FTW was in fourth place, and their results were very good. Wei Xiao was really high from playing. As expected, even free matching became more interesting after everyone started to get serious. Seeing that Pro was in 1st place, Bai Cai was very surprised, Li Heran asked for leave today. The substitute player was really fierce. Wei Xiao only learned about this fact now, God Ran asked for leave? Bai Cai sighed, I heard that he doesnt feel good today and will be sitting on the bench for the next few days. Wei Xiao had heard some rumors about this, Is his wrist still a problem? As the Gossip Emperor, Bai Cai had a lot of information he shouldnt have. I read the report that Pro gave out before. Its not serious, but theyre worried hell tire out since the 15 days of winter training is so intense. Even though the actual scheduled activities werent significant, and there were only games in the afternoon and the evening, many strong teams had many other training matches to complete. Originally, they could play them during the afternoon or at night, but now it had all been crammed into the evening. FTW going to bed at three oclock was already considered early. Wei Xiao sighed, Since God Ran isnt there, Pro probably wont pick us today, right? He still wanted to play against Pro when they were in their best state. Yesterdays game had been so enjoyable that he couldnt accept todays game being any worse. Chen Feng picked up the conversation, Pro will definitely pick us. Wei Xiao was stunned, Why? If they pick us today, the next time we fight will be during the prize pool competition. Li Heran wasnt in a good state, but he would definitely play in the next few days. Wouldnt it be more fun if they played together then? Chen Feng handed him a document, This is the complete version of the rules that was just issued by the competition committee. It really hadnt been easy for the organizers to patch up bugs. After adding so many restrictions, they then added yet another one. Wei Xiao read it out loud, In the points competition, each team can only play four times? F*ck! They were up against 3U on the first day, and then they picked Scummy Zhou on the second day, then played against L&P on the third day. If anyone picked them again today, didnt that mean that they couldnt be picked again for the next five days? Chen Feng said, Were ranked fourth. L&P cant pick us anymore, but if Pro doesnt choose us, Tomorrow will definitely go for it. In that case, they would have no chance of playing against Pro at all. Wei Xiao was angry, What are the organizers doing! Chen Feng was very calm, The games are broadcast live. What will people think if theyre watching FTW every day? Wei Xiao: He didnt want to talk anymore. He was so filled with anger he was blowing up like a pufferfish! Bai Cai comforted him, Look, 3U has played three times already too. It was okay if he hadnt mentioned it, but once it was brought up, Wei Xiao became even more angry, Old Sleep and Pro fought twice, and it was a Pro with Li Heran! 3U had been lucky. The reason why Pro had been able to ask them to play yesterday was because the competition committee had been reasonable and decreed that any training matches made before the rule change didnt count. Unfortunately, todays competition committee was completely inhuman, and the rule of fighting four times in the points competition included previous matches! Wei Xiao was full of heartache, I can see it clearly. The organizers are deliberately targeting us! The person in charge of organizing the training camp sneezed: Hey, who was scolding him? It certainly couldnt be someone from the China competition zone. Theyd been very diligent and worked hard in order to protect them! Chen Feng knocked on his desk and had him calm down, Dont take it lightly. Wei Xiao had stopped moving. Hed turned into a paralyzed salted fish. Chen Feng looked at him, Did you think that Pro is no good without Li Heran? Wei Xiaoxiao pouted; he wanted to play against the doubles champions. Chen Feng sneered, You may not know this, but Kim Sung-hyun will only be fiercer without Li Heran. Wei Xiaos eyes brightened slightly. As a substitute for the Team of Gods, Tang Chen also had something to add, Yeah, If Old Li isnt there, youll be able to see Kim Sung-hyun play the way he did in FTW. Wei Xiao sat up straight, Seriously? Chen Feng rolled his eyes, Why would I lie to you? Let me tell you, if Li Heran isnt there, Kim Sung-hyun will show his true colors. Wei Xiao had heard something about it, About that his true colors of abusing junglers? Chen Feng stressed, Its abusing thieves. The worlds number one marksman, God Kim, had a significant hobby. He loved abusing the enemy jungler in 5v5 games. As everyone knew, marksmen were most afraid of junglers. This was especially the case for marksmen in 5v5 games. As the major DPS dealer in the later stages, most of them had a limited range of movement and were super squishy. When they saw the enemys jungler coming for them, they all wanted to call out for their daddy! All thieves were assassin-type talents. Regardless of whether it was the shadow thief, berserker thief, immortal thief they were all a marksmans nightmare. When they came close, a marksman would perform a health bar vanishing technique for the audience to see right then and there. It had the word TRAGIC written all over it in capital letters! However, it was different for Kim Sung-hyun. His marksman could beat up the enemy jungler until they called out for their daddy. This was a bad habit that had been developed in FTW. Yan Jiangs support was given to the whole FTW. If the marksman wanted to experience the warmth of a support daddy? Dream on! Kim Sung-hyun, who had to develop on his own alongside a savage jungler and mid-laner, had to attack fiercely in order to seize anything for himself. Late game? Like hell would there be a late game. If he didnt rush up to snatch up resources and kills, his teammates would all leave him ten blocks behind. They were all headstrong characters. Kim Sung-hyun had to come up with his own playstyle. Pressuring the other sides marksman wasnt a big deal. Pressuring the other sides jungler was the real Daddy Kim. Chapter 74.1: Im really like a little darling held in the palms of your hands Wei Xiao was passionate again, So thats how it is! Bai Cai saw his appearance and had a headache: Dont you feel embarrassed calling others trembling masochists? Youre the most masochistic one here! Normal people would be happy when they heard that their opponents were terrible. Wei Xiao was different; he would only be happy when he heard that his opponents were crazy. You have an illness that should be treated, Wei Xiaoxiao! After eating in the afternoon, the FTW group went to the banquet hall. They didnt arrive early, and there were already people sitting next to their usual seats. Chen Feng glanced at their team uniform and said, Lets change where we sit. The silver-gray L&P was as eye-catching as could be. Why were these people sitting there? Were they here to find fault with them even after winning the game? CCThat didnt seem rightCCShouldnt they only be coming here to find fault with them if theyd lost? There was no medicine that could cure Wei Xiaos damned desire to win, No way! Chen Feng: Wei Xiao explained to their coach, If we change seats, wont we be telling everyone that were scared? Chen Feng wanted to say: No, they wont. Youre overthinking it! Wei Xiao added, L&Ps people are very nice. Im saying that the people there are nice; the animals dont count. Bai Cai looked at handsome and cool Yuan Ze with the black stud earrings and suddenly felt a bit of common hatred against the enemy. Not only was he handsome, he still had to put on a cool act, it was too much! The small thoughts in Wei Xiaos heart went around in a very big circle, If we can establish a good relationship with L&P, then training matches will be easy to arrange when we return home. This point poked at Chen Feng. Coach Chen waved his hand, Go! Wei Xiao was happy. He went to say to Lu Feng, Captain, Ill sit next to Old Bandit Yuan so that he cant bully you. Lu Feng: No need. Wei Xiao: Eh? Lu Feng: Youre the one he wants to bully. Wei Xiao: Im not scared of him. He was full of confidence when it came to aggravating others! Lu Feng: Im not willing. Wei Xiao: ! He was dazed for a while, then quickly caught up, Captain, dont worry. I wont go to L&P. I was born an FTW person, and when Im dead, Ill Lu Feng stopped walking to look at him, I dont want you to only talk to him and ignore me. The last three words were spoken very lightly, so quietly that Wei Xiao was the only one who could hear them. Wei Xiaos heart fluttered and jumped up to block his throat, making him stumble over his words, I Lu Feng had already gone over to sit down. Wei Xiao came back to his senses, F*ck! He felt like hed just been electrocuted and really wished he could rush over to Lu Feng and say in front of everyone all over the world: Ill only talk to you, Ill only talk to you in this lifetime! It was too deadly. The captain who ate flying vinegar was really killing him! So, after both sides were seated, Lu Feng had Yuan Ze to his left and Wei Xiao to his right, firmly separating the two of them. Yuan Ze had really never expected that after hed led his entire team to change seats, hed end up sitting next to a ten thousand year iceberg. Who wanted to be close to Little Close! He would rather sit close to the water cooler than next to a refrigerator! Lu Feng greeted him expressionlessly. Yuan Ze: It was too late to change seats now, but hed only wanted to tease little children, did Close really need to watch him so closely?! In order to coax his captain, not only did Wei Xiao not speak with Yuan Ze, he didnt even look at Old Dog Yuan. During the entire process, he fluttered around his captain, attentive and caring. Yuan Ze looked at him a few times. Wei Xiao noticed it, but he didnt even let Yuan Ze hear what he was saying to Lu Feng. He leaned in close to Lu Fengs ears to speak in a whisper. Lu Feng: . Coach Chen Feng who was sitting in the back row could only rub his forehead: Are you regretting it? Captain Lu, are you regretting it or not! You could tease anyone, yet you chose to tease a little beast. Werent you still the one who ended up suffering! Although Li Heran wouldnt be playing, he still came to the hall. He had his uniform jacket draped over his shoulders, and his short sleeves couldnt cover up the gauze on his wrist. Many people saw it, but none of their gazes lingered. They were all professional players. They understood. The competitive arena was both romantic and cruel. They would put in all their effort and burn themselves hard for a few years, blooming more brilliantly than fireworks. It was incomparably romantic. At the same time, it was extremely cruel. It was like stubborn moths drawn to a fire, the solemn and stirring scene of thousands of troops attempting to cross a single plank bridge. It was very likely that they might give it their all just to end up with nothing in the very end. It was precisely because of this cruelty that the romance became more romantic, and the glory ever more brilliant. There wasnt any suspense; Pro chose FTW after the competition committee announced the new rules once again. When the two teams came up onto the stage, they saw a very different Kim Sung-hyun. Compared with the other members of the Team of Gods, Kim Sung-hyun, whod left to return home, had always given everyone a relatively gentle impression. He had a noble and cold appearance that seemed carved from jade, especially the black mole that made his delicate features appear more arrogant. However, anyone who was a little familiar with him knew: this Kaolin flower appearance was just the surface. Inside, he was the Pro mascot. After returning from China, Kim Sung-hyun, who had a steadfast heart, had restrained the perversity that prevailed in FTW. Additionally, during the breaking in period for Pros line up, he rarely used those fierce and aggressive talent specs. His personal temperament was more in line with a squishy marksmanCC Delicate everywhere and in urgent need of protection. However, Li Heran was sitting off-stage today, and his entire mental outlook was completely different. In the live broadcast studio, old FTW fans were all saying, Oh my, its definitely our Daddy Hyun! Im a little distressed for Quiet. Daddy Hyuns saga of teaching people their place will have another page filled with ink. So sad. The God Kim with God Ran is the real God Kim. Well yeah, but how strong was Kim Sung-hyun when he was in FTW? His solo skills could rank in the top three. He turned into a really shit player after returning to Korea. Is Pro bad? They were the worlds second runner-up and champion of the doubles last year. Youre saying theyre shit? If they have the ability, then win the team championship. Has Kim Sung-hyun ever won the team championship after returning home?! The scrolling comments were fiercely noisy. Kim Sung-hyun had been a very popular figure in the China competition zone. He was the only foreign player in the Team of Gods, and for many ignorant people, he was also the chief culprit that led to the disbanding of the Team of Gods. When Kim Sung-hyun had just returned to South Korea, the Chinese fans had cursed him bloody. Later, the Chinese fans let him off. However, because of Pros poor performance, Kim Sung-hyun was then scolded by fans in South Korea. Two years ago, Li Heran, the player who was once the strongest marksman, switched to playing support and pushed Kim Sung-hyun to the top of the storm. Not just the South Korean competition zone, even Li Heran fans from around the world had wanted to tie a rocket to his body and send him away to outer space! The clamor gradually died down after Pro began to get results. Although theyd failed to win the world championships, Pro had won two domestic championships and the world doubles championship for the past two years. For better or worse, it reduced the volume of the voices of the people who were scolding him. These were all old things that came out into the open once again because Li Heran wasnt playing and Kim Sung-hyun was now playing against his old team. The scrolling comments were noisy and rowdy. Meanwhile, the ten people on the stage were settling into their places and debugging their equipment. Wei Xiao: Old Yue, be more careful. God Kim looks really fierce. Yue Wenle was very serious, Understood. They were all newcomers. Back when the Team of Gods charged everywhere under a glorious banner, they were all still secretly watching the game from home. Which ADC didnt set Kim Sung-hyun as their goal? It was the same for Yue Wenle. Chen Feng admonished them, Bai Cai, go with Wei Xiao. In this game, theyll definitely invade the jungle zone like crazy. As old teammates, Chen Feng knew Kim Sung-hyun very well. Wei Xiao seized this opportunity to act coquettish, Captain, help me keep an eye on the upper jungle~ Lu Feng: Okay. Bai Cais ears hurt, Can you talk properly or not. Wei Xiaos attitude towards him was like howling winds and driving rains, Im not talking to you. Dont place so much importance on yourself. Brother Vegetable: Do you f*cking know about the thing called Mic Explosion King or not?! As soon as your team chat conversations are leaked out, the Seclusion CP will be on fire all over the world! Bai Cais kindness was treated like trash. He was too lazy to deal with this doggy thing any further! The screen was already showing the BP link. Chen Feng considered it for a long time and ultimately chose not to target Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyuns hero pool was too deep, and Pro had many suitable line-ups. Instead of going up against him directly, it was better to detour around him. What was Pros weakness? The substitute support player? Yes and no. The substitute support player was certainly not as good as Li Heran, regardless of whether it was in terms of his understanding of the talents or his level of cooperation with Kim Sung-hyun. Both were a little worse than Li Heran. It would be wasteful to give a precious ban position just to counter this support player. How exactly should he choose? Chen Fengs hesitation slowed down the BP process. Lu Feng spoke up, Try to get a line-up that suits us. The tip of Chen Fengs pen dipped for a moment and he woke up from his thoughts, Okay! When faced with a strong team, the BP segment burned a lot of brain cells. It was just like playing chess. If the opponents chess moves were too wide and had too many strategies, it was easy to get lost. Trying to look ahead and predict the future would only result in confusion. In this kind of situation, he should jump out of that pattern of thinking. Since their opponent could do anything, then it was better to focus on themselves. They could take the talents that FTW members were good at and try their best to grab the strongest line-up from their opponents. They would use their own familiarity to face the unlimited changes. This was one way to success! After a fierce confrontation, the line-up for both sides was locked in. FTW: Divine warrior, hidden thief, ice mage, light priest, storm hunter. Pro: Devil warrior, power thief, sword mage, holy priest, ghost hunter. The commentators voice held a bit of excitement, Its been a long time since Ive seen Kim Sung-hyuns ghost hunter! Kim Sung-hyuns ghost hunter would kill gods when it met gods, and kill buddhas when it met buddhas when it was in FTW. Pro must definitely have built on this too. Park Guizhi has taken the power thief. It looks like hell be a blue collar jungler. Blue collar junglers used a very different jungler style from Wei Xiao, Gary, and even Asleep. For Wei Xiao, Gary, and Sleep God, their junglers were the cores of their teams who snatched up resources across the map like crazy, killing wherever they went and controlling the rhythm of the game. To put it another way, the entire team either revolved around them, or was at least driven by their actions. Blue collar junglers were different. They were quiet, steady, and solid. Most of their resources were given out to other members of the team. They were toolmen who ate grass and made milk in a team. This kind of team usually had a very major core. For example, Pros Kim Sung-hyun and China TPTs Eurostar were both talented marksmen who sucked up the farm from across the entire map in order to deal out shocking DPS. The goal of a blue collar jungler was to live, remain steady, and hold on. When the marksman was developed, the entire map would have to kneel down and call daddy. Eh, Close took the divine warrior. The divine warrior tends towards support. How could my great demon king use something like this QAQ! Isnt the hidden thief and divine warrior a good combo? What are you acting up for. Feeling sad Sure enough, he cant do whatever he wants anymore after going to the top-lane. Haha, what do you mean, do whatever he wants? He uses a thief every time, and every time he loses like a dog. Is that what you mean by doing whatever he wants? What are you hinting at? Just get lost if you dont want to watch the game! Breaking out into a fight over a small disagreement was a regular thing in the scrolling comments. FTWs line-up this time was a bit risky. Ning Zhehans ice mage was mainly focused on control, and Yue Wenles storm hunter was a stopgap measure aimed at Kim Sung-hyun. How things would develop was a mystery. Lu Feng had taken the divine warrior in order to take the initiative to start group fights for the whole team, but this move also limited Closes ability. The entire teams DPS would rely on Wei Xiaos hidden thief. The hidden thief could shoulder this heavy responsibility; his ultimate move had an unlimited refresh mechanism. Once his dart landed on an enemy, as long as his operations were amazing enough, he would be able to shuttle continuously through the crowd and deal out explosive damage. Of course, the premise for this was that the hidden thief needed to develop. If it was crushed to death from the start, attempting to shuttle amongst the crowd would be fatal. FTW clearly knew that Kim Sung-hyun would target Wei Xiao, yet they still took the hidden thief. It was unknown if it was because they trusted Wei Xiao too much, or if it was because theyd already given up on saving the situation. At the start of the game, the hidden thief had to start with obtaining the blue (mana) buff, as all of its skills used up mana. Once its mana pool emptied out, it wouldnt be able to use a single skill and would no longer be a hidden thief, but a dead thief. Additionally, the blue buff also had the effect of reducing cooldown time. It was extremely important for the hidden thief who relied on its skills. For the sake of this blue daddy, Lu Feng and Bai Cai all remained on the river. One divine warrior and one light priest acted like a solid wall to protect the hidden thief. Wei Xiao was delighted, Im really like a little darling held in the palms of your hands. Bai Cai: Lu Feng: Mm. Everyone else in FTW: It was an illusion, right? Their ears were malfunctioning, right?! xiin: one day late because scheduling fail. i somehow forgot yesterday was saturday??? also, Wei Xiao. how do you come up with this stuff?? Chapter 74.2: Proud Flower Kim is going to cry. The little darling, ah, no, the little beast steadily took down the blue daddy. Wei Xiao was somewhat puzzled, Why didnt Pro come down to take a look? This was very unusual. Normally, when a team saw that there was a hidden thief on the other side, they would always charge over like a hungry wolf attacking a tiger, rushing up to tear or chop. Theyd either try to kill the hidden thief or steal the blue buff. In short, he and his blue daddy should have never been allowed to fall in love with each other like this. Bai Cai carefully provided insight as he said, They probably guessed that the captain would protect you. Wei Xiao grew proud again, That makes them smart. They know that the captain cares about me. Bai Cai: I f*cking shouldnt have just tried to talk to you! Wei Xiao successfully cleared out the top jungle zone and moved to the bottom jungle zone. The top jungle zone was in Lu Fengs range, while the bottom jungle was beyond Lu Fengs reach. Lu Feng: Be careful. Wei Xiao had constantly kept an eye on the minimap, Got it. The hidden thief was quite weak before it hit level 6. A hidden thief who couldnt shuttle around and hide in a crowd of people was nothing more than a vegetable stalk. Hed just finished killing a stone soldier on the bottom lane when Wei Xiao felt a chill down his back, Old Bai! He trusted his instincts fully and anxiously called out for Brother Cai to provide vision. Bai Cai: F*ck! There was nobody in Pros bottom jungle zone, and all the jungle creeps were still there. That meant Wei Xiao: I f*cking He had already begun to retreat cautiously, but the ghost hunter who flew over like a shadow had already hit him. The ghost hunter was a talent spec that wasnt often used nowadays because it wasnt very suited for team fights. It was even more focused on single attacks than the shadow thief, and was rarely seen in the 5v5 arena. However, not only had Kim Sung-hyun had picked it, he was extremely overbearing with it. The ghost hunter was a rare talent that had dual forms. Where others had one skill, he had two; when others had two skills, he had four; when others had three, he had six Right now, Wei Xiao only had two skills, while the ghost hunter already had four. The ghost hunters ghost states first skill combined with the second skill was a strong control skill followed by armor breaking, while the human states first and second skills dealt explosive DPS. Wei Xiao, this squishy hidden thief, evaporated on the spot in seconds. System announcement: Pro.Succ killed FTW.Quiet! Kim Sung-hyun had killed Wei Xiao on his own while in FTWs bottom jungle zone! The audience could see everything from gods perspective and were much clearer about the situation than FTW was. Amazing! Who the hell can hide from this?! He didnt even have vision. How did Kim Sung-hyun manage to grasp the right timing? FTWs marksman really cant be blamed for this. Who can react to this?! Reasonably speaking, if Kim Sung-hyun disappeared, then Yue Wenle should send out a signal so that Wei Xiao would know to be careful. However, Kim Sung-hyun had disappeared too quickly. He seemed to have figured out that Wei Xiao had already finished clearing the upper jungle and had come down to the bottom jungle. He switched to ghost form, and while Yue Wenle thought that hed just gone to kill a jungle creep near his own tower, hed made use of the ghost states high mobility to brazenly charge into FTWs bottom jungle zone. The ghost hunter disappeared for a brief moment, then landed strong control and DPS, taking away Wei Xiaos life with a series of moves! It was quick and direct and not polite at all. Daddy Hyuns attack really lived up to his reputation. Why hadnt Pro gone into the top jungle zone to mess with Wei Xiao? Why had they let Wei Xiao take the blue daddy? It was because they were waiting for him in the bottom jungle. So what if he took the blue buff? Once he was killed, it would just become a gift for the other side! Wei Xiao sucked in a breath, Really cruel. Lu Feng reminded him, Dont act alone. Wei Xiao understood instantly, Hes still in the bottom jungle area? Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao was startled, Does he really look down on me that much! Lu Feng: . Yue Wenle spoke up, Ill come support you. Lu Feng didnt say anything. Wei Xiao felt that it wasnt quite right, Dont. That will affect your own development. Yue Wenle: In that case, Ill press his lane soldiers. If the lane soldiers were pushed towards Pros defense tower, then Kim Sung-hyun would definitely come back to guard the tower and wouldnt be able to target Wei Xiao. There was no problem with this strategy, but Nobody said it, but everyone understood that Yue Wenle couldnt hold Kim Sung-hyun down. This was the root of why Kim Sung-hyun dared to be so unscrupulous. Wei Xiao said, Dont worry about me. Focus on developing. Ill be careful. Bai Cai: Ill go with you. Wei Xiao: Okay. As a jungler, Wei Xiao now had to be very cautious even in his own jungle zone. It was a novel experience. Just now, not only had Kim Sung-hyun killed him, hed also stolen his three little jungle creeps, adding on another layer of pressure despite not even being there. Wei Xiao had just finished clearing the jungle creeps when Yue Wenle called out anxiously, The ghost hunter isnt in the lane! Wei Xiaos nerves tensed up, and he was very cautious with his positioning. He felt that this time, he could smear the ghost hunter into the ground no matter what. Just now, hed been caught off guard. This time, he had to get even. Five seconds, ten seconds, fifteen seconds Wei Xiao suddenly said, The small dragon! Bai Cai was stunned and then realized, Damn it, we fell for it. Wei Xiao sped up stealthily and went through his own jungle zone in the blink of an eye, making his way to the dragon pit. They were really too capable at messing around. Kim Sung-hyun had disappeared, but it wasnt for the sake of ganking him. Theyd gone to take down the small dragon. In the early stages, the small dragon was very important. Once they were able to take it down, the Pros entire teams experience and farming ability would go up, strengthening up all three of their lanes. Originally, Ning Zhehan was already having difficulty holding up in the mid-lane. If the other sides mid-laner leveled up and gave him more pressure, then it would be like a blood avalanche level collapse! Wei Xiao had no time to be concerned about Bai Cais moving speed and rushed into the dragon pit first. Because this side wasnt in FTWs territory, Bai Cai didnt dare to set down his vision here. Only when the hero was in the vicinity would he be able to see the situation clearly. Sure enough Pros jungler and Kim Sung-hyun were fighting the dragon. The ancient creature whose teeth and claws were flying everywhere only had a tenth of its health left. Once Kim Sung-hyun took it down, FTW wouldnt be able to play at all! Once this snowball started rolling, they wouldnt be able to find the sky again! Wei Xaio realized that hed still been taking the game lightly. Li Heran wasnt there, so hed always felt that Pro would be a little worse off. The coachs words had sparked his interest, but hed still underestimated Kim Sung-hyun. Which jungler would think that they could be suppressed by a marksman? Until they met Kim Sung-hyun. The hidden thiefs stealth had a time limit. Especially when they were close to the enemy; a skill was enough to break them out of it. Kim Sung-hyun hadnt expected that Wei Xiao would come so soon. Wei Xiao had already reached level 6. The level 6 hidden thief had its ultimate moveCCWindless. His dart shot over, and he used his own jungle creep to take off, jumping into the dragon pit. There were three possible targets in the dragon pit. One was the dragon, and the other two were Park Guizhi and Kim Sung-hyun. The hidden thief whod flown inside was most likely about to die inside the pit. However, Wei Xiao had already gone inside and had never thought of leaving it alive! Kim Sung-hyuns pupils contracted, Save your skills! He was speaking to Park Guizhi. Hed already seen through Wei Xiaos intentions! Unfortunately, hed spoken a little late. Wei Xiao had already gotten close, and he attacked Kim Sung-hyun and Park Guizhi at the same time. Kim Sung-hyun immediately switched forms, clearing away the darts while his ghost forms claws swiped at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao wasnt anxious. He used his ultimate move and aimed at Park Guizhi, perfectly avoiding the control skill. Park Guizhis skills were linked up quickly, but Wei Xiao was more flexible than theyd expected. He took off again and rushed towards the dragon. The commentator exclaimed, This is a beautiful set of moves! He perfectly avoided Kim Sung-hyun and Park Guizhis moves! A very brilliant series of operations that can be included in the collection of wonderful replays! It wasnt that the commentator was praising him exaggeratedly with his eyes closed; the details of Wei Xiaos operation left even Kim Sung-hyun and Park Guizhi stunned. Kim Sung-hyun stared at the dragons health bar and gritted his teeth, Kill the hidden thief first! They couldnt let Wei Xiao live. His windless had never been interrupted, and at this time, if Pro continued to attack the dragon, they would only be offering up themselves and the dragon on a silver platter! Kim Sung-hyuns judgement was correct. He and Park Guizhi attacked from both sides, landing all their damage output on Wei Xiao. Wei Xiaos small body couldnt stand the assault. He looked at Bai Cais position and knew that there wouldnt be enough time Old Bai! Ultimate move! The light priests ultimate move was a wall that could isolate all creatures, including friendly forces. Bai Cai was worthy of being an old teammate whod fought with him everywhere. He sold him out without any hesitation and said, Have a good trip! He was still seven or eight yards away from the dragon pit, and it was impossible for him to save Wei Xiao. he could only create opportunities for Yue Wenle, who was making his way over! The light priests light wall fell down from the sky and split the dragon pit into two. The dragon was outside the wall, and inside the wall were the three fighting players. Nobody had any attention left to spare on fighting the dragon, and the dragons health volume gradually went back up again. Pros attempt to steal the dragon had completely failed this time. They could only kill Wei Xiao to assuage their anger. Wei Xiao had been trapped in the dragon pit by Bai Cai. There was no escape, and no hiding. There was only death. However, the road to death didnt mean waiting for death. Wei Xiao used windless to the extreme and tried to avoid taking damage in the narrow space Yue Wenles storm hunter finally appeared, stepping on its raindrops. Wei Xiao was delighted, Old Yue, kill him! Hed only just finished speaking when he was killed by Kim Sung-hyun. At the same time, Yue Wenles rain arrows flew over coldly, hitting the ghost hunter who was already at low health. System AnnouncementCC Pro.Succ killed FTW.Quiet! FTW.Le killed Pro.Succ! Cool! The scrolling comments were full of cheers, You didnt die unjustly, Quiet contributed greatly in this wave! Right, right, right, not only did he interfere with Kim Sung-hyun killing the dragon, he also tried his best to create opportunities for his teammates to take a kill. Awesome! Its too damned awesome! Daddy Hyun is still Daddy Hyun, his hands are still that steady, accurate, and cruel when he kills thieves! Less than half a second later, the system announcement rang out againCC FTW.Close killed Pro.UU. The bottom jungle area was fighting hard, and on the top lane, Close had solo killed Pros top-laner! Although Wei Xiao had died, he was still very excited, Beautiful! Having the captain there was too reliable. After FTWs team fight, no matter what the casualties were, the top lane would always be as stable as a rock. It really gave them a sense of security. In FTWs team chatCC Lu Feng: Switch lanes. Yue Wenle was stunned. Lu Feng: Ill go against Kim Sung-hyun in that lane. The audience couldnt hear the team chat, but they could see the real-time movements. It made their spirits quiver to see the divine warrior and storm hunter switch lanes. Close is going to the bottom lane! Kim Sung-hyuns playing too arrogantly, and Close cant watch on anymore. Reasonably speaking, can Kim Sung-hyuns marksman hold down Closes jungler? I dont know. FTW, who does a round trip home for the world championships, has never had a chance to fight against Pro. Ahhhh, how good would it be if Close was the jungler? We could see who is more fierce! Quietly whispering, I always have a feeling that the great demon king is angry now. Angry about what? His own little jungler was killed twice, emm Holy shit, sister, thats a good one. We ship this, we ship this! Off-stage. Yuan Zes lips curved in a smile, Proud Flower Kim is going to cry. xiin: close to the rescue? Chapter 75.1: It was hard. It was really too hard. Pro soon found out that FTW was switching lanes. Reasonably speaking, Pros devil warrior should follow Close to the bottom lane so that the two of them could continue their Imperial City PK. Pros team chatCC Kim Sung-hyun: Theres no need to switch. Pros top-laner UU said, I can hold down Close. As a devil warrior, hed been killed by Lu Fengs divine warrior. He was actually very upset by this. Kim Sung-hyun: Let me deal with Close. You kill FTWs storm hunter until he collapses. It was just a points competition. Considering the fact that Li Heran wasnt playing and Kim Sung-hyuns mood wasnt good, plus the fact that Close had a special identity, UU didnt insist again, Okay. So, Kim Sung-hyun went to the bottom lane as usual and met with Closes divine warrior head on. A divine warrior and a ghost hunter formed a great contrast after they gathered in the same place. The divine warrior lived up to its name, its entire body covered with holy light. It had six white wings on its back and held a huge sword, standing in a heroic pose that made it appear like the patron saint of the team. The ghost hunters ghost form was a flickering black shadow with evil spirits floating wantonly around it while baring scarlet claws. It looked like a soul-sucking ghost that had climbed out of hell. This pinnacle duel between two members of the former Team of Gods was one of the favorite programs for the audience to watch. In particular, the contrast between the two talents was so great that the human brain could make up tens of thousands of scenarios. Reasonably speaking, the divine warrior might not necessarily be able to beat the ghost hunter. The ghost hunter is too agile, the divine warrior cant catch up with him. C fans, its time to wake up, okay? This is a 5v5 game. Can you not be so focused on solo? Indeed, this was a team game. Why would they 1v1 if they could 2v1? Close arrived at the bottom lane. After the time it took to take a doubles selfie with Kim Sung-hyun, Wei Xiao had already hidden himself in the bushes. Kim Sung-hyun always kept an eye on the minimap and listened as his own support gave status reports, Theres nobody in the jungle zone. Quiet is most likely in the bottom lane. Needless to say, Kim Sung-hyun had sensed it too. The stretch of grass to his left was quiet and peaceful, but he could guess that a thief was crouching there even with his eyes closed. Should he use his skills to trick the hidden thief to come out? Kim Sung-hyun didnt really dare to. Close was keeping a tight eye on him, and he had no doubt that the divine warriors sword would split him in two as soon as he raised his hand. Hide under the tower? Hed end up missing soldiers. CCI dont need you to kill soldiers, I wont miss a single one. Kim Sung-hyun thought of his commitment to Li Heran and was torn for a moment. Damn it! Pros jungler Park Guizhi exclaimed, Dont go out! But the ghost hunter had already used its ghost shadow, ignoring the hidden thief in the grass as it tossed its control skills at the divine warrior. He switched to human form to kill the soldiers then, when his skills were in cooldown, he instantly switched to ghost form and planned to return to the tower The divine warrior moved faster than hed thought. Hed clearly been controlled by him, but relying on the control resistance stats of his equipment, the divine warrior was able to break out of his control a little earlier than expected. Six wings exploded outwards, and the holy sword that was wrapped in white feathers stabbed into Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyuns heart cracked a little. It really was typical of Little Close, his reaction time was really overboard! However Kim Sung-hyun managed to resist the blade, and the skills of his ghost state smashed onto the hidden thief hiding in the grass. Wei Xiao was startled, F*ck! Kim Sung-hyun had sensed his presence a long time ago. Hed still dared to come out to kill his soldiers despite being attacked from the front and back. Was he looking down on him! In fact, Kim Sung-hyun did have reason to look down on him. He accurately controlled the hidden thief so that Wei Xiao couldnt move, then quickly returned to the tower using the ghost states movement ability. There was a small medicine bag beneath the tower. Kim Sung-hyun switched back to human state and used the medicine to replenish his health. The health bar that had been half empty was now two thirds full. The commentator praised, Really worthy of being Glorys number one shooter. Nobody can be as persistent in clearing soldiers as he is. As the main core position, he must be meticulous in everything. Losing a single soldier or having one less gold may affect the battle situation. Not missing a single soldier is the unremitting pursuit of many players! The commentators were praising Kim Sung-hyun when they suddenly got stuck, Close The battle situation changed too fast, and it didnt give them time to talk nonsense. Kim Sung-hyun had only just pulled back into the tower when Wei Xiaos control effect disappeared. Lu Feng said, Go. Wei Xiao: Got it! The hidden thief, who was at full health, used a jungle creep as a springboard and threw a dart at Kim Sung-hyuns head. Kim Sung-hyun sucked in a breath. Wei Xiao had already rushed into the tower and latched onto him. Kim Sung-hyun burst out with an unexpected round of cursing. Park Guizhi: Wait two seconds for me! Two seconds? The ghost hunter wouldve turned into a dead ghost a long time ago by then! Sure enough, Wei Xiao rushed in just to take damage from the defense tower, then used the dart on Kim Sung-hyuns body to quickly dodge away. At the same time, the divine warrior dove beneath the tower with his long sword, and the golden special effects smashed onto the pale and thin ghost hunter. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Close killed Pro.Succe. This cooperation was perfect! The hidden thief withstood the tower, then withdrew. The divine warrior advanced, then harvested a head. Holy shit, who says that the divine warrior is a support type top-lane hero?! Sure enough, the great demon king is a great demon king no matter what he uses! To tell you the truth, Ive already thought about the divine warriors championship skin. How about a fallen angel? The white wings turning black; its a perfect match for our Close! When Kim Sung-hyun fell to the ground, Park Guizhi and their support player arrived at the same time. Unfortunately The hidden thief was nowhere to be seen, and the divine warrior had returned back to his own tower. Based on its own passive health recovery, it would be back to full health at any second. Were they going to forcibly kill a divine warrior who was number one in farming and in excellent condition beneath his own tower? The sky wasnt dark yet. Dont start dreaming. As Yuan Ze had said, Proud Flower Kim was ravaged. Pros support had already stationed themselves on the bottom lane, protecting Kim Sung-hyun with his life. Unfortunately, Close was too good at grasping opportunities, and his timing was very accurate every time he called Wei Xiao over. Wei Xiaos personal strength was really amazing. His knowledge of the talent specs, timing, and even his understanding of Close were all shocking. It led to extremely tacit cooperation between the two, and they could wipe out Kim Sung-hyun in one or two seconds. Pro had been playing training matches against L&P for many years, and Yuan Ze was very familiar with him. If Li Heran wasnt playing, then Kim Sung-hyun would have to be the pillar of support for the entire team. It was actually somewhat difficult for a marksman to be the backbone of the team. They did alright for an ordinary team, but once they encountered a team with a particularly strong top-jungler combo, it was easy for him to be targeted. For example, L&Ps Yuan Ze and Old G had abused this Proud Flower countless times. Although Close and Quiets combo was brand new, it had the potential to be even fiercer than Yuan Ze and Old G. The Proud Flower couldnt withstand it. Wasnt he just being crushed to death. Was Pro going to lose? Was Pro, who was missing their team commander Li Heran, going to lose the game so miserably? No. A truly strong team had never been a one-man team. Although the teams lethality had dropped sharply its team commander, Pro wasnt just a team of two people. They had made it into the global semi-finals based on the strength of all five people! Kim Sung-hyun was the teams core, but it didnt mean that the other people were trash. On the contrary, they were the iron walls that guarded the core! System AnnouncementCC Pro.UU killed FTW.White! Pro.UU killed FTW.Le! Pro.Cui killed FTW.Silvery! In the gap left by Wei Xiaos crazy ganking of the bottom lane, Pros top lane cooperated with their jungler Park Guizhi to take down a double kill, while the mid-lanes Cui killed Ning Zhehan! Once these three kills were announced, Pro instantly cleared up their declining state and took control of the situation again. Off-stage. Chen Fengs expression remained the same. Tang Chen scratched his head, Strong. Chen Feng: Yes. They had been watching the game constantly just now. Bai Cai, Yue Wenle, and Ning Zhehan had played very well. There had been almost no operational mistakes, and their state was also very good. They hadnt made any big mistakes in the details, but They couldnt beat their opponents. Pros top-laners devil warrior and power thief had launched a surprise attack. Bai Cai had taken tons of damage and was the first to die, but hed still failed to protect Yue Wenle. This wasnt a positioning error, nor was it an operational mistake, but rather a hero restraint and operational suppression. Although Wei Xiao had subdued Kim Sung-hyun, the other sides jungler wasnt just for show. They could naturally also hold down Yue Wenle! The mid-lane Cuis sword mage was an assassin mage type. It was a mage who could kill devastatingly if given the opportunity. Even if it hadnt been Ning Zhehan, and EVEs Xie He had been there instead, it was difficult to say whether he would be able to live on without his teammates support. In the game that was going on now, it wasnt just about the three cubs, but more about the whole team. They needed more cooperation, more discipline, more adaptation and understanding of each other. Chen Feng understood all these things, so he wasnt in a panic. It wasnt something they could rush. They still had enough time. The earlier they discovered these problems, the earlier they could deal with them. The domestic competition would be their real start! The top lane and mid-lane had collapsed, so Wei Xiao could no longer target Kim Sung-hyun. He had to start supporting all three lanes. As a result, Kim Sung-hyun was liberated. No matter how strong Close was, it was unrealistic for him to be able to crush Kim Sung-hyun with Pros support behind him. Kim Sung-hyun no longer ran around everywhere. He simply developed quietly, frantically seizing farming opportunities from beneath Closes hand. Little by little, bit by bit This kind of particular, precise marksman was the most terrifying presence in the canyon. The game dragged on into the second half. Wei Xiaos heart was uneasy, We wont be able to fight if we drag the game on. The ghost hunter had begun to give up its ghost form and focus only on its human form. The ghost hunter in human form had no flexible movements or control skills, but it had an amazing ability to deal damage from the back row. By the time Kim Sung-hyun finished six full sets of gear, he would be able to use a single arrow to string FTW up like a tanghulu. Lu Feng: Give up the bottom lane tower. Wei Xiaos heart thumped. There was no other way; they were at their limit. It was already record breaking for the captain to be able to guard the defense tower to this degree against two people. When FTW lost their bottom tower, the liberated Kim Sung-hyun really began to crush all lanes. Pros playstyle was very obvious. Everyone supported Kim Sung-hyun. They werent just foils, nor were they just decoration. They were iron walls that guarded Kim Sung-hyun! Even if Li Heran wasnt there, the tacit understanding between the team members still existed. The game lasted 40 minutes. FTW was suffering from a one-sided decline. Kim Sung-hyun gave up the ghost form completely, and his human form with full gear was strong enough to explode. Yue Wenles storm hunter began to expose its shortcomings. It was hard for the storm hunter that was strong in the early stages to find DPS opportunities in the later stages. High mobility marksmen were destined to sacrifice high DPS and range. It was basic, fundamental game balance logic. The ice mages damage had increased, but Pros support had magic defense gear and blocked in front of the team, forcing Ning Zhehan to retreat. He couldnt deal any real damage, and his positioning was forced backwards, unable to affect Pros back row. If he was even a little careless, then Pros sword mage could shoot a sword over and kill him instantly with a set of skills. It was hard. It was really too hard. There was no way for FTW to fight a team battle at all! If they werent able to cut to the back and kill Kim Sung-hyun. FTW had no hope of winning the game. Everyone understood this truth, but how could they reach Kim Sung-hyun? In FTWs team chatCC Bai Cai said fiercely, Old Wei, lets go get Kim Sung-hyun! Damn it, he was so angry. Hed been marksmens daddy for so many years and had never felt so suffocated. How was this a marksman? It was clearly a big ancestor! An ancestor that must be catered to all around the canyon! Wei Xiaos voice held a rare seriousness, You cant leave Old Yue. Pros most ball-breaking point lay here. It seemed that everyone was focused on protecting Kim Sung-hyun, but in fact, their sense of smell was more sensitive than a pack of dogs. Once they noticed any meaty bones, they would pounce and chew it into nothing in seconds. Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan were the most tasty meat bones. As soon as Bai Cai left them, they would be attacked and killed immediately. Once the marksman and mage were dead, how would FTW deal any DPS? Even if they killed Kim Sung-hyun, so what? Pros four remaining people could easily win the game! Bai Cai understood this as well. It was just that he was angry, F*ck, could it be that well have to admit defeat like this? Once these words came out, the team chat fell silent. Wei Xiao, whose trash talk could cover the whole sky, didnt pick up the thread of the conversation, and everyone else felt a little flustered. This game was different from yesterdays game. Theyd been psychologically prepared for how strong the full-strength L&P were. They could face the results no matter how they won or lost, but Pro was missing their commander. If they lost like this, then Chapter 75.2: FTW is amazing! Lu Feng said, Ill go Wei Xiao interrupted him, No! Lu Feng stared at the hidden thief on the screen. Wei Xiao was unusually calm, The divine warriors later stage DPS is unable to kill Kim Sung-hyun. Moreover, the team needs you to start the team fight. If you die, Old Bai wont be able to hold up. The light priest was squishy. Without the divine warrior tanking, FTW would have a very difficult time fighting. Brother Cai spoke anxiously, Then what should we do? If we cant kill Kim Sung-hyun, we wont be fighting shit. Wei Xiao spoke in a deep voice, Ill go. Bai Cais brows twisted together, Youre too squishy. You cant reach Kim Sung-hyun. Wei Xiao glanced at the soldier lines and the refresh time for the ancient creature and calculated silently in his heart, Theres only one chance. They would only have one chance, and the present situation didnt allow Wei Xiao any room for error. The resurrection time for heroes in the late stages of the game took too long. If Wei Xiao couldnt cut Kim Sung-hyun down dead, then FTW would lose. The ancient creature would refresh, and the soldier lines would advance forward. The FTW that would be left with only four people wouldnt be able to hold up no matter what! Lu Fengs voice was low, Go ahead. Well draw them over. You look for a chance. Wei Xiao nodded, Yes! Bai Cai, Yue Wenle, and Ning Zhehans hearts all rose up to their throats. It was just a points fight. If they lost, their prize pool would be empty. FTW was currently in first place in the bonus prize pool and losing would be costly. However, it wasnt a dead end for them, because the real competition for the entire training camp would take place on the last day. They had hope for turning the tables around even if they lost todays game. And if they won today, it would just be a moment of brilliance. However They didnt want to lose! They werent willing to lose! No matter what the cost was, regardless of whether the results were important or not, at that moment, all they remembered was their team name. CCFTW. For The Win. For victory! Wei Xiao didnt say anything else. Even his breathing slowed down. His mind was filled with countless images of Closes matches. In this kind of situation, what would Close do? How would Close kill Kim Sung-hyun with a hidden thief? Close would definitely be able to do it. He could too! Hed taken over Closes jungler position, and he would definitely never let him down! The late stage team fight was on the verge of breaking out at any time. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle tried their best to perform long-distance harassment. Bai Cai remained by their side to protect them, replenishing their health and blocking the other sides skills. Close held back Pros devil warrior and power thief who were attempting to sneak in close. These two or three minutes of tug of war made people not even dare to blink. Countless peoples hearts had risen up to their throats as they waited for the final result. Lu Feng: Opportunity. At the moment when he began to speak, Wei Xiao had already started moving. The timing was fleeting, and he couldnt miss this opportunity that his teammates had been fighting for. Pros support used his control skill, and the devil warriors highest amount of DPS landed on Lu Fengs body. The power thief moved forward, and Kim Sung-hyun only had one sword mage beside him. Wei Xiao went into stealth. The blood all over his body was boiling, but his fingers were incredibly stable. No mistakes. He couldnt expose himself and couldnt let himself be detected by Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyun: Hidden thief! He couldnt see anything, but he could feel it. Intuition told him that the damned stinky brat was about to gank him. Their actions were faster than their words. Pros sword mage came up to block in front of him, opening up its ultimate move without hesitation. Countless light swords swept across, forming a dense sword wall. Wei Xiao couldnt allow himself to be hit. The sword mages late stage damage had exploded, and it would only take four or five swords at most to kill him. Avoiding the light swords meant that he would have to stay away from Kim Sung-hyun. Park Guizhi was already in the process of coming back, and Pros supports control skill was about to finish its cooldown. If he missed this second, then FTW could only wait to be destroyed in the team fight! His heart pounded, and there were goosebumps on his arms. Wei Xiao felt more calm than ever before. All sounds were gone, his thoughts were empty, and the only thing in front of him was the pale and thin figure of the ghost hunter. There were gaps between the light swords. Under normal circumstances, it was extremely difficult to avoid. However, Wei Xiao stared fixedly at the gaps His movement speed was much faster than that of the sword mage. He could see through the sword mages position, and as long as he kept up with the trajectory, there would be enough of a delay between the light swords! He found it. Wei Xiao rushed up against the light swords and nailed Kim Sung-hyun with a dart. Kim Sung-hyuns heart trembled, F*ck! Wei Xiaos lips curved. He landed a series of moves on Kim Sung-hyun, sending him into critical health in seconds. Kim Sung-hyun: I have resurrection armor. Kill the hidden thief! When he fell, Wei Xiao was also destroyed by the collective attacks. However, while Kim Sung-hyun had resurrection armor, Wei Xiao had it too! At the moment when he stood up again, Wei Xiao switched his resurrection armor for the invincible blade. After resisting a wave of damage, he hit Kim Sung-hyun again. Kim Sung-hyun was no worse than he was. Hed switched to his invincible blade at the same time, blocking the fatal attack. He switched to his ghost form just in time, wanting to leave the battlefield. Wei Xiao chuckled, He fell for it. Kim Sung-hyun clearly couldnt hear Wei Xiaos voice. He obviously didnt know what the brat had said, but when he looked at the hidden thief on the screen, he seemed to have heard it The divine warrior came down from the sky and stabbed the ghostly figure with a sword. The light shattered the demonic aura, and the ghost figure was torn apart into black smoke by the divine warrior. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Close killed Pro.Succe! Kim Sung-hyun died. Hed tried his best to escape the hidden thiefs assassination, but ended up dying beneath the divine warriors sword. F*ck! Too cool! Oh my god, did you guys see? The camera cut to Quiets face just now. I saw it, I saw it. Too handsome. F*ck, there were stars in this little brothers eyes! The moment when Kim Sung-hyun turned into ghost form to escape, Quiet smiled. That smile was too cool. When will there be a replay? This old lady could watch it a hundred times! Amazing, FTW is amazing! Kim Sung-hyun had died, and Wei Xiao had fallen too. However, FTWs momentum rose up! Yue Wenle stepped on his raindrops and flew over, rain arrows falling down from all over the sky. The sword mage was sent back to the resurrection crystal in seconds. Ning Zhehan played out his control skills perfectly, freezing three people at the same time. The divine warriors sword swept over and cut the three people down to half health. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Le killed Pro.UU. FTW.Le Killed Pro.Cui. FTW.Le killed FTW.Le Quadrakill! In this last wave, Yue Wenle used the storm hunter and got a Quadrakill! Pro was wiped out. FTW won the game. The entire audience was full of cheers for this wonderful counterattack. Chen Feng, who was famous for his cold aloofness, was so excited that he slapped Tang Chens thigh fiercely, his voice trembling, They won! They won!! Tang Chen: Ouch, ouch, they, they won. His leg QAQ! The domestic live broadcast room was even more excited. The screen was full of the sentimentCCFTW is amazing! It seemed that this was the first time in three years that the fans didnt know whether to say Close is amazing or FTW is amazing. Even though theyd won against an incomplete Pro. Even though theyd only won a trivial points competition. However, the dazzling light created by the five of them working together had become a brightness that lit up the hearts of countless fans in China. They were eager to win, desperate to win, and looking forward to winning! Amazing, FTW! After the game, both sides shook hands. Kim Sung-hyun held tight to Wei Xiaos hand, Great. The words were squeezed out from between gritted teeth. Wei Xiaos smile spread across his entire face, Ten days later, Ill be waiting for the real Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyun was stunned, and a smile appeared in his eyes, Brat. They released their handshake. Kim Sung-hyun looked at Lu Feng, See you later. Lu Fengs calm black eyes flashed briefly, See you later. They had once both been in the Team of Gods, been teammates and partners who fought shoulder to shoulder. Now, they were opponents! See you later. He would definitely win next time. See you later. Next time, he wouldnt lose. They were no longer teammates but were opponents who were worthy of respect! They went back off-stage. Yuan Ze smiled slightly, Beautiful. Wei Xiao blocked in front of Lu Feng and raised his eyebrows, Of course its more beautiful than your divine warrior. Yuan Ze spoke meaningfully, Im saying Lu Feng dragged this kid away and pushed him into his seat, separating the two of them. Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao poked his head out, You dont have to say it. My captain plays everything more beautifully than you do! Lu Feng blocked his view, Didnt you say you had to go to the washroom? Wei Xiao: Oh, right! He got up and went to the other side to go to the washroom. Yuan Ze tsked and said, Youre protecting him so strictly? Lu Feng didnt look at him, You dont understand. Yuan Ze: ??? Lu Fengs lips curled slightly, You dont have such a good child around. Of course you wouldnt understand why Im protecting him so strictly. Yuan Ze: F*ck! In the game just now, Wei Xiao had been the one to fall first in the last battle. His screen had turned dark, but his mouth was still going strong. The cold killer disappeared, to be replaced by FTWs trash talk king, Fellow brothers, hurry up, hurry up, I cant hold it in anymore! Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Shoot, shoot, shoot, Old Yue, hurry up, Laozi wants to go to the toilet! Yue Wenle almost died on the stage! The heavens knew that Old Yue, whod gotten a Quadrakill, wasnt happy at all. He even felt a chill at the back of his neck that seemed to come from the divine warriors holy sword! At the end of the game, Wei Xiao took his time slowly solving his physiological problems. He hadnt gone in for long when he heard a conversation outside. It was Kim Sung-hyuns voice, speaking Korean. Wei Xiaos English wasnt bad, but his Korean wasnt very good. Hed heard little sisters call out Oppa when he was studying, but he didnt understand anything else. The competition committee provided headphones for simultaneous translation. However, this kind of thing Its accuracy was extremely poor. Nobody wore it except as a last resort. How could Wei Xiao be wearing that kind of thing when he went to the toilet? And even if hed been wearing it, it wasnt something he should listen to. For this kind of situation, if it was avoidable, he wouldnt listen if he had any choice. So, he didnt understand what the other two were talking about. What he could be certain of was that one person was Kim Sung-hyun while the other was Li Heran. Wei Xiao wanted to go out, but he heard Kim Sung-hyuns voice get louder, and he seemed very angry. This was embarrassing. Hed just hammered Proud Flower Kim flat on the stage, and now hed run into him having a fight. Um Wei Xiao could only hold back and wait to go out later. Although he didnt know what the two of them were arguing about, Wei Xiao knew a little about Kim Sung-hyun and Li Herans situation. Back then, it seemed that Kim Sung-hyun had been sold to FTW because of Li Heran. He didnt know exactly what had happened and only knew that Kim Sung-hyun had gone back to Korea after FTW gained prominence. The first thing he did when he went back home was find Li Heran. But, back then Li Heran was about to retire. Marksman was the position that took the heaviest toll on the body. Killing soldiers was easy to talk about, but wasnt easy in execution. The right hand had to click the mouse continuously. Even a robot would end up with problems, not to mention a human hand. Li Heran had been unstable for an entire season, and the former first marksman fell to the bottom. Kim Sung-hyun had gone to find him, pulled him back up, and took him into Pro. After that, Li Heran switched to the support position, and Kim Sung-hyun became the marksman. It was said that when the two of them had first made their debut, Li Heran had been a marksman while Kim Sung-hyun played the mid-lane mage position. Their double-core combination had been explosively powerful, and the entire team did very well. Later on, Kim Sung-hyun went to China and switched to the marksman position. As of now, Li Heran had switched to support. After going around and around, the Pro team that had finally been broken in with much difficulty was now facing a new disaster. How long could Li Heran last? Could he hold on until they won the world championship? Wei Xiao was in a trance. An absurd idea suddenly floated up. If the captain was like Li Heran what should he do? This indescribable fear almost stopped Wei Xiaos heart. His nose grew sour and his eyes turned red. He didnt dare to think about it. He didnt dare to think about it at all. Wei Xiao clenched his fists and pressed down hard, as though trying to crush the pain that wanted to shatter his heart. Chapter 76.1: Dont tempt me. Im afraid that I cant hold back. After he heard the sound of footsteps leaving, Wei Xiao came out of the washroom compartment. There was nobody at the sink area. Wei Xiao looked at himself in the mirror. His eyes were red, and he looked like he wanted to cry, like a little dog that nobody wanted. Shit. Wei Xiao turned on the tap. After washing his hands, he cupped a handful of water and splashed his face. He cooled his eyes and also cooled down his brain. He was too dependent on Close. After his grandmas death, hed had nobody to rely on. Hed been taken by surprise when he met the captain; how could he resist? The captain was really nice. Especially, especially nice. Wei Xiao sighed and suppressed this illogical fear. What was he thinking? The captain was only 21 years old. Li Heran was already 23. It wasnt the same! There were two years of difference! Two years Wei Xiao once again felt that the difference was a little small. That wasnt right! He remembered that the captains birthday was in December, so now he was just counting by years. If he rounded down, then the captain was only 20 years old. 20 meant that he was only one year older than he was. He was currently alive and kicking, and the captain could still fight for another 500 years! At this moment, Wei Xiao could be regarded as having found some comfort. He couldnt bear for anything to happen to Lu Feng. He cherished everyone who was good to him in his life. Hed been in the toilet for a long time. When he went back to his seat, Lu Feng looked at him, Not feeling well? Wei Xiao thought to himself, the captain was really elegant and gentle. He was so circumspect when asking him if he had diarrhea. Wei Xiao: I didnt have diarrhea. Lu Feng was relieved, Why did it take so long? Wei Xiao leaned in close to him and said, I ran into Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran having a fight. Yuan Ze was still beside the two of them. The Old Bandit had his ears perked up vertically and felt like hed found a breakthrough point in the conversation, The two of them quarrel every day. In the past, when they were in FTW, they would scold each other over international calls. Wei Xiao was curious, Captain Li appears to be very good tempered. And he seemed to indulge Kim Sung-hyun very much. Yuan Ze: You dont get it. The more one looks like they have a good temper, the more unusual their temper actually is. Wei Xiao was unhappy with that, Why dont I get it? Watching you smile like a fox every day actually feels terrible. Look at how my captain looks like a cold iceberg, but in fact, he treats me really well. Yuan Ze: In order to talk to Yuan Ze, Wei Xiaos entire person was pasted onto Lu Fengs body. Lu Feng held down his waist and said, Captain Yuan needs to go play in a moment. Dont disturb him. The implication beneath the words was that this topic could end here. Wei Xiao was about to say something else, but he suddenly stopped. CCThe captains hand was really hot. Wei Xiaos brain buzzed as he sat up straight. Lu Feng also didnt dare to touch him further. He removed his hand as soon as he sat up properly. Old Dog Yuan didnt notice anything and was still trying to stir up discord, You didnt even come to L&P. How could you know that I wouldnt treat you well? Wei Xiaos heart felt hot, and he was just about to turn around to aggravate him. Lu Feng spoke slowly and steadily, I was also very good to him before he joined FTW. Yuan Ze: If Wei Xiao had a tail, it would be pointing up to the sky right now. Did you hear that? Did you hear that? Did you hear that, Captain Yuan! Captain Yuan had indeed heard it. Hed heard the foolish sound of his own foot kicking an iron plate. Old G with his half-assed Chinese heard this and came to his captains rescue in confusion, Dont look at how my captain is smiling like a fox. In fact, his stomach is full of bad water! The FTW crowd whose Chinese was CET 10 level, Pfft! Old Gs expression was confused as he said in English, Did I say it wrong? Isnt that a phrase used to describe the captains intelligence? What are they laughing at? Not only had Yuan Ze kicked an iron plate, hed even f*cking lifted up a stone and smashed it on his own foot! Wei Xiaos English was good, and he replied, Indeed, indeed, its used to describe how smart your captain is. Hes really smart. Old G, keep going, praise him 30 times a day, and your captain will love you for 10,000 years. Old G: His Chinese wasnt good, but he wasnt stupid. When he looked at his team captains bad expression, he could tell that hed said the wrong thing, About that Yuan Ze picked up his jacket and covered Garys head, Lets go. Were playing a match. Oh, it was now L&Ps turn to play. The team that went up against L&P wanted to cry when they finally stepped off-stage. What was going on? Why were Marshal and Gary so fierce?! Even if they were lovelorn, they shouldnt bring their emotions into the game. The team that had been hammered until they had bumps all over their heads dared to be upset but didnt dare to voice it out loud. After watching the games and going back to the training room, Chen Feng went over the replay as usual. The replay session was always the most comfortable when they had won the game. He could point out any problems directly without worrying about any mental burden the players might have, and the acceptance level for criticism was high. Of course, there were also the ones who didnt like reviewing the game after winning, feeling that since theyd won, then theyd done nothing wrong. This kind of player might exist in other teams, but FTW didnt have any. Even Close, the leader and person in charge, respected Chen Feng. The others were naturally very obedient and well-behaved. Wei Xiao took the replay review very seriously every time. It was even to the point where he would find his own mistakes before Chen Feng did, and he wasnt afraid of being disciplined. He scolded himself more fiercely than Chen Feng did. However, he remained very quiet that night. He didnt focus on watching himself and stared at the captains divine warrior instead during the entire process. During this match, if one only looked at the final results, then the divine warriors performance hadnt been the most brilliant. Yue Wenle had the highest number of kills, and that last Quadrakill had basically sent him up to heaven. Ning Zhehan had dealt the highest amount of DPS. Although he hadnt taken many kills, hed played out a lot of damage with the ice mages strong poke (long-range attacks). There was no doubt that milk daddy Brother Cai had taken the highest amount of damage. Wei Xiao had been pressured too tragically by Kim Sung-hyun during this game, and his stats didnt look good. However, the key to victory lay in him trading his life for Kim Sung-hyuns during that last wave, and it couldnt be captured by a simple data panel. There was only Close, who seemed to be a little bland during this game. It was true that he wasnt very eye-catching, but hed been very important. Wei Xiao looked at the entire game situation and saw countless details from the divine warrior. In the early stages, hed suppressed the devil warrior. In the middle stages, hed suppressed Kim Sung-hyun, and at the end, if it hadnt been for the divine warrior stalking the Kim Sung-hyun whod switched to ghost form intending to escape, FTW wouldve been done for. During all the important segments, the divine warriors figure was present, but he wasnt as sharp as hed been before. He was hidden silently within the team, like a pair of eyes above the canyon, quietly making up for the gaps in the team. CCControlling the field. A shudder swept through Wei Xiaos nerves. It turned out that the great demon kings control could be so gentle when it wasnt used against the enemy. He peeked at Lu Feng. Lu Feng seemed to notice his gaze and shifted his eyes over. Wei Xiao quickly turned his head back and stared at the screen. He was very pleased inside, because hed been the first to discover this secret. After the replay review was over, they started queuing as a team of five as usual. The tacit understanding between members of a team couldnt be faked. It could only be tempered by playing one match after another together. The hour hand pointed at 12 oclock. They had just finished a game. Lu Feng was the room master. He clicked to start queueing again. Wei Xiao cancelled the queue. Lu Feng looked at him, Hm? Wei Xiao said, Captain, its twelve. Its time for you to rest. As soon as he spoke, everyone looked at him like hed just performed magic: What? Did they hear wrong? Was this something that Wei Xiaoxiao would say?! Lu Feng was also stunned. He asked back, Tired? Wei Xiao wasnt tired at all. He said, It wasnt easy for the captain to develop his biological clock. Dont break it, go to bed early. Bai Cai disdained him, I dont know who it is who pesters the captain for solo games day and night. Wei Xiao glared at him, Im young and ignorant. Youre the one who doesnt know when to stop. Bai Cai: He was the one whod spoken too much. He deserved it! Lu Feng could sense that: Wei Xiao was concerned about him. His eyes curved slightly as he asked him, Then, Ill go to sleep? Wei Xiao urged him, Go quickly, go quickly. Lu Feng spoke lightly, I originally wanted to solo with you before going to sleep. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng smiled as he looked at him. Wei Xiao snapped at Brother Vegetable, What are you standing there so dazedly for? Hold me back! Brother Vegetable: ??? Wei Xiao stuffed his own arm into Brother Vegetables hands, Whats the use of having you around?! Brother Vegetable finally understood. It seemed that he wanted him to stop him? Emmm Wei Xiaoxiao, youre a male escort with many plays! The stopped Wei Xiao waved at Lu Feng, Dont tempt me. Im afraid that I cant hold back. Brother Vegetables hand trembled. He really wished he could strangle him: Would you die if you spoke using human language? Lu Feng was already used to it and asked again deliberately, So, Im going? Wei Xiao was heartbroken, Goodbye, see you later, good night! xiin: Lu Feng: Actually, I want you to be unable to hold back. Chapter 76.2: Slow down, Captain, go slower, I cant stand it, really... Lu Feng really left the training room. Wei Xiao seemed to turn into a hollowed-out salted fish, lying there paralyzed in the e-sports chair. Brother Vegetable looked at him, Whatre you up to this time? Wei Xiao endured the pain in his heart and said powerlessly, How can the captain be the same as us? Brother Vegetable: ? Wei Xiao spoke earnestly, Not only is he an active professional player, hes also the head of a club and has many things to deal with every morning. If he stays up late just like us, how tired would he be?! Bai Cai looked at him suspiciously, Why are you suddenly so sensible? How could Wei Xiao be willing to say that hed been scared by Li Heran? He spoke in a pithy tone, Love cuts deeply. Its probably that Im starting to love the captain more and more. Brother Vegetable & Old Yue & Little Ning: . After hearing it so often, they were now immune! Although it was for the sake of Lu Fengs body, when Wei Xiao thought about his lost solo games, his heart felt like it was on fire. Aaahhhh!! Wei Xiao was grumpy, Brother Cai, come double queue! He had to find some stimulation in order to vent his feelings. Otherwise, he might run back to the room and pester the captain. At two oclock in the morning, Chen Feng drove all four little ones back to sleep. Wei Xiao wasnt sleepy. Chen Feng sneered, You dont want to play free matching anymore? Your Brother Tang is quite bored. Wei Xiao was startled, Im leaving! Going back to the room at this hour; Lu Feng must already be sleeping. Wei Xiaos movements were light. He didnt even dare to turn the water on high when he took a shower and just washed up in a hurry, stepping out of the bathroom wrapped up in a bathrobe. The room was lit up with floor lighting that wasnt dazzling at all and wouldnt wake Lu Feng up. Wei Xiaos eyes adapted to the dim lighting. He could clearly see the captain sleeping on the bed. The island they were training on was very hot, but the air conditioning in the room was off, and it was a little stuffy at the moment. Lu Feng had probably felt hot while sleeping. The quilt on his body had been pushed down to his waist, and his pajamas were drawn up, revealing a large stretch of his abdomen. Black cloth, pale skin, sexy abs, and mermaid line F*ck! Wei Xiao quickly shifted his eyes away and covered himself with a pillow. His face was burning hot, and his ears seemed to have been set on fire and were now thoroughly red. It wasnt the first time hed seen it, and hed even touched it before. What the hell was his heart jumping around for. Wei Xiao tilted his head and lifted the pillow. He narrowed his eyes and looked over again Tsk, tsk. This lighting, this face, this figure. Wei Xiao was calm! It was all the lightings fault. It was too hot in the room, and the captain was too handsome! He should be a good and proper internet addict. Why train up his body so well?! Eh, Wei Xiaos little foolish brain was starting to turn again. Exercise. Exercise was good! It kept one strong and healthy, and would prolong ones life! Wei Xiao covered himself with the quilt and endured the heat to open up his cell phone. He began to search: The benefits of exercise. A line of text that caught his attention made his eyes light up instantly, Strengthens the bones in the human body and promotes the growth of muscles How wonderful. The captain loved exercising so much that his bones must be really healthy and his muscles must be strong. Occupational diseases wouldnt be able to get to him at all! Wei Xiao became energetic and continued to scroll down. As he went down, another line popped outCCbedroom exercise was conducive to harmony between a husband and wife. The 19-year-old virgin: ??? What was this messy stuff! He had been searching up exercise. How did this get into the picture?! Wei Xiao was so hot he wanted to die, and at this time, he almost couldnt breathe. He turned off his cell phone and poked his head out. He turned over and faced Lu Feng. Who couldve known that Lu Feng wouldve turned over, too? He was now facing him. The lamp that hadnt yet been turned off outlined his body, his broad shoulders and narrow waist, and his long and straight legs that were hidden beneath the thin quilt. Wei Xiao: He should close his eyes, close his eyes. Sleep. Sleep. Oh, he had to set an alarm. The next day, Wei Xiao, whod set an alarm, woke up at half past eight. Wei Xiao was confused for a moment as he looked at his cell phone. I clearly set it for 7:30. Why didnt it ring? What kind of broken thing is this?! He clutched at his hair just as the door opened. Light streamed in through the door. The man who was wearing a sports vest was covered in sweat, and his voice was even lower than usual, Youre awake? Wei Xiao was vexed, Youre already back! Lu Feng entered the room and turned on the lights, Whats up? Wei Xiao had wanted to get up early to go for a run with Lu Feng. Yet as a result why hadnt this broken alarm clock gone off?! Lu Feng picked up his bath towel and said, Ill go take a shower first. Wei Xiao sat up cross legged and looked at Lu Feng, Captain, call me when you wake up tomorrow. Lu Feng turned to look at him, Whats the matter? Wei Xiao said, Ill accompany you on your run! Lu Feng paused briefly, Why do you suddenly want to go running? Wei Xiaos eyes darted everywhere, then landed on the abdomen hidden beneath his thin vest. He said, Didnt you say that I would also have abs if I exercise more? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao stared at him intently, I also want to build up muscles. An image of Wei Xiaos pale, thin waist suddenly appeared in Lu Fengs mind, Wei Xiao saw that he remained silent and thought that he wasnt taking it seriously. He stressed, Im serious. I also want to exercise my body! As he spoke, he lifted up his clothes and exposed his flat belly. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao looked at himself very disdainfully, then lifted his head and said, Look at me I just have one ab eh Whered the captain go?! Lu Fengs muffled voice drifted out from the bathroom, Ill wake you tomorrow. Wei Xiao was satisfied, Okay! Wei Xiao had gone to bed too late, then gotten up too early. As a result, he fell asleep again. By the time he woke up again, Lu Feng had already gone to work. He yawned and went to find Old Bai to go and eat. Although that days training match would have nothing to do with FTW, everyone still arrived at the scene on time. They were all strong teams from the various competition zones, and it was possible that theyd run into each other at some point. Learning more about the others would never hurt. That night, they continued to queue as a team. When 12 oclock rolled around, Wei Xiao once again drove Lu Feng off to sleep. Chen Feng just happened to be in the training room in order to sort out some data. When he heard the movements, he looked up. Wei Xiao sent off Lu Feng, then said to Chen Feng, Coach, I also want to go to bed early tonight. Chen Feng raised his eyebrows, Did you change personalities? There was no night for internet addicted youths. That was Wei Xiaoxiaos motto. Wei Xiao: I have a date with the captain tomorrow morning As soon as he spoke these words, everyone ended up smashing their keyboards! Brother Cai: F*ck, you Wei Xiao changed his words, Its an agreement, a meeting. Everyone: Could you not make these damned slips of the tongue! Wei Xiao explained, I want to run with the captain in the morning. I want to start exercising. Bai Cai relaxed a little, Youre too lazy to even walk Soybean. Can you even exercise your body? Wei Xiao advised him, The body is the capital of revolution. Brother Cai, how about you come with me tomorrow Bai Cai waved his hand so fast it created a breeze, No need, no need. Wasnt sleeping in a good thing? Why would he run over to look for abuse. Wei Xiao went to sell this idea to Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle, Have you guys seen the captains abs? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Its so handsome. Arent you guys envious? Little Ning and Old Yue shook their heads crazily: Theyd never seen it before, and they werent envious or interested! Seeing that these four people werent moved by this, the broken hearted Wei Xiao sighed, Young and wayward. You guys arent taking your bodies seriously, hey. Chen Feng couldnt continue listening anymore. Youre only f*cking 19. What kind of old act was he putting on? He was 26 and hadnt even said a single word. Wei Xiao went to bed at around 1:30. When Lu Feng woke him up, Wei Xiao hugged his bed and muttered, Soybean, stop messing around. He turned over, and his long, pale legs caught on the quilt. Lu Feng: . Lu Feng took a light breath, You continue sleeping for a while. Ill go first. His voice was very soft. He couldnt bear to wake him up. Wei Xiaos ears twitched, and his eyes opened abruptly. Lu Feng was currently looking at him unblinkingly. He was taken by surprise when their gazes met and was stunned for a moment. Wei Xiao was dazed, Captain His voice was drawn out, soft and gentle. Lu Fengs heart felt like it was being stroked by a feather, it was incredibly itchy, Three minutes. Wei Xiao woke up a little, Ah? Lu Feng shifted his gaze away and tried to keep his voice cool and even, Ill wait three minutes for you. Wei Xiao woke up completely, F*ck! Running! He jumped out of bed, washed up quickly, and they left the room within three minutes. After a series of unremitting efforts, Wei Xiao was finally able to obtain the achievement of running with the captain. When they left, Wei Xiao was in high spirits, The scenery is really beautiful in the morning. After all, they were on a resort island. They ran around the hotel garden, and the sea was to one side of them. The view was so beautiful that it made one feel refreshed and happy. Mm. Very beautiful. Lu Feng looked directly ahead, only catching a glimpse of Wei Xiao from the corner of his eyes. His heart felt warm and comfortable, as though the morning sun was shining into his chest. Wei Xiao was running very energetically, Its not very tiring. Captain, how long do you usually run for? Lu Feng: 50 minutes. Wei Xiaos timing was very much tied to e-sports. Its like a 5v5 game. Lu Feng: Basically. Wei Xiao was full of fighting spirit, Thats not a big problem. Ill accompany you for a 5v5 game every day in the future! Then, the Wei Xiaoxiao who was so full of confidence, who was so fearless and unafraid, who often went against the heaven and the earth, half an hour laterCC Captain, captain, I cant anymore! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao panted and gasped, Slow down, Captain, go slower, I cant stand it, really no way xiin: heeeheeee~ Chapter 77: Do the two gentlemen in the room still want to eat? Wei Xiaos voice was already very youthful, and it was particularly crisp and clear to the ear when he provoked people. At this moment, he was panting hard, and his words came intermittently, carrying traces of spoiled pleading. Obviously, he was just tired from running, but It was early in the morning, but Lu Feng didnt dare to look at him at all. Wei Xiao really couldnt run anymore. Seeing that his captain was running even faster, he was suddenly shocked, Captain, youre too fast, I I. Lu Feng: . Fortunately, the great demon king had a strong mentality and his pace was steady. If it was someone else, they might have sprained their foot! The open, empty garden, and the quivering, youthful voice. Shit. Captain Lu didnt want to stir up any socially taboo topics, so he took a deep breath and stopped, Go back if youre tired. Wei Xiao caught up and gasped for breath, almost crying, No I want Lu Fengs heart trembled. Wei Xiao finished his sentence, To finish running with you. Lu Feng couldnt keep running any longer, Well stop here for today. Youre too tired. These words stabbed the hornets nest. Wei Xiao could say that he couldnt do it a thousand times over, but others couldnt even hint at such a thing. In particular, when it came to Close, it instantly inspired his desire to succeed! Wei Xiao reached out and grabbed Lu Fengs forearm. The scalding, hot palm clung to Lu Fengs skin, bringing with it a shivery, crisp numbness. Lu Feng resisted the impulse to grasp him back. Wei Xiao looked at his captains seven digit watch and said, Its its only been 30 minutes? His calves were trembling, and he was standing unsteadily, but unexpectedly, it had only been 30 minutes? Lu Feng quietly removed his hand, We ran a little fast just now. In fact, it was a lot slower than when he ran by himself. Wei Xiao really wanted to cry, I was saying that you were too fast, who can take it when its so fast? Lu Feng couldnt hold back anymore, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao tried hard to catch his breath, Hm? Lu Feng: Speak properly. Wei Xiao: ??? Lu Feng continued to run forward, and soon pulled four or five meters ahead of him. The gentle breeze from the island blew over Wei Xiaos body, toying with his clothes like playful butterflies. ! There was a roar in his brain as Wei Xiao realized what hed said. Damn it. Wei Xiao recalled what hed just said and felt his scalp go numb. He couldnt concern himself with how tired he was anymore, and he ran forward a few steps to catch up and explain, Captain, I-Im not harassing you, its just that youre really too fast, I really hope that you can slow down, I Once hed been reminded, Wei Xiao also felt that anything he said came out strange, especially as hed already started to gasp for breath again. Lu Feng laughed briefly, Enough. Wei Xiaoxiao tested cautiously, Hm? Lu Feng felt that todays scenery was countless times more beautiful than it had been the many days prior, Its fine. Anything was fine, no matter what you do. Wei Xiao let out a huge breath of relief, and his mouth started acting bratty again, Even this is fine? Could it be that it wouldnt matter even if I really harassed you! Lu Feng stopped abruptly and looked at him with a pair of black eyes that reflected the morning sun. Wei Xiaos heart fluttered. There was a moment where he thought that the captain would open his mouth and give him a monosyllableCC Mm. Lu Feng: Either keep up, or go back first. Wei Xiao blinked. By the time he came back to his senses, the captain had already run ahead by more than ten meters. F*ck! How did the captain run so fast? Did he use flash! The little wisp of stray thoughts in Wei Xiaos heart was blown away by the sea breeze, leaving him full of the impulse to give chase. He wanted to catch up to the person in front of him, wanted to be shoulder to shoulder with him, wanted to climb up to the top with him, wanted to see beautiful scenery from all over the world with him. The result of excessive exercise in the morning was that Wei Xiao couldnt get out of bed. When Bai Cai came knocking, Wei Xiao dragged over his tired body to open the door. Brother Cai was given a scare, You what happened? Wei Xiaos legs were quivering as he lay there paralyzed on the bed, Tired Bai Cais heart was shocked and he said incredulously, You guys Wei Xiaos words took on a different flavor, Ah, the captain is too much of a beast! Bai Cai: As the relative of the female side of the family, Brother Cai was also collapsing, The captain, captain, he Had he finally been unable to hold back anymore and done that?! Wei Xiaos next sentence, I ran with the captain for 50 minutes in the morning, a full 50 minutes! Bai Cais face was the same color as a vegetable, and hed been reduced to a true Brother Vegetable, Oh. If I ever believe half a sentence of yours again, Laozi will go and eat shit! His indifferent tone left Wei Xiao very dissatisfied, Whats with your attitude? Dont think that 50 minutes is very easy, no matter what kind of exercise it is, 50 minutes is enough to tire someone to death! Bai Cai: Heh heh He would never think random, messy thoughts again, and he wouldnt listen to a single word more. Even if you guys really did it on the bed for 50 minutes, I wont believe it! Wei Xiao waved his hand, Forget it, forget it, with your body, youd die half way. Bai Cai urged him, Are you coming to eat or not? Wei Xiao: I cant move anymore. Bai Cai: Bring you food? Wei Xiao nodded like crazy, Dont forget the watermelon juice! Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Ill pick up whatevers available. You can choose whether to eat it or not. Bai Cai had just stepped out when he ran into Lu Feng. Brother Cai stood up straight and stopped just short of saluting, Captain! Lu Feng eyed the door to the room, Wei Xiao woke up? Brother Vegetable nodded, He asked me to bring him up some food. Lu Feng: No need. I called room service. Theyll bring it up in a while. Bai Cai thought of that big daddy in the room and said, He still wants to drink watermelon juice Lu Feng: I ordered it. Bai Cai: A very fine captain who was even very clear on what the little beast liked to eat. Bai Cai said, In that case, Ill go downstairs to eat first. Lu Feng: Go ahead. Lu Feng pushed open the door just to hear the lazy voice of the youth in the room, Brother Cai, your legs are really fast. Laozis legs hurt, I want to eat meat, did you bring beef Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao got up with a swish and saw his captain, who had his uniform draped over his arm. Captain, youre finished with your work? Mm. Wei Xiaos legs were trembling with pain, but he absolutely didnt want to act timid in front of Lu Feng, so he sat up cross legged, What did you say just now? Lu Feng looked at his exposed calves and asked in return, Painful? Wei Xiao: Lu Feng: Did you stretch? Wei Xiao: Ah? As an internet addict, it was already a miracle that Brother Xiao could run. How could he understand anything about stretching? Lu Feng said, Come down. If you dont stretch, itll be more painful tomorrow. Wei Xiao didnt want to move at all. He asked tentatively, How do you stretch? Lu Feng coaxed him, Ill help you. Wei Xiao was a huge captain fan who had a deep belief in his words, Itll stop hurting after stretching? Lu Feng: It will hurt a lot less. Wei Xiao: Kay. He reluctantly twisted himself out of bed, his thighs quivering with pain. Ah, it was just a run. Why did it feel like his body was falling apart? How did the captain manage to run 50 minutes every day! It was too inhuman! Lu Feng was really concerned about Wei Xiao. This kid would never sit if he could lie down, and he would never stand if he could sit. He was so lazy that his bones were soft, and after suddenly running with him for such a long time, his body definitely wouldnt be able to take it. Hed only gone back to nap for a while, and it was already this painful. It would be more serious tomorrow. Lu Feng really just wanted to help him stretch. And then Wei Xiao left hand wrapped around his instep, and he stood on his right leg. Hed only held the pose for three seconds, No more, no more Lu Feng supported him by the waist and helped him stretch, Hold on. Wei Xiao kicked up a fuss, It hurts too much, captain, dont dont do it so hard ah. The service staff who came to deliver the meal, Because there were Chinese guests in this area, the hotel had specially arranged a Chinese speaking staff member. The little brother listened to the moans and groans at the half-closed door. He didnt know whether to press the doorbell or not. CCThese two gentlemen inside the room, do you still want your meal? Or should he help them close the door behind them. Chapter 78.1: God Kim, youre the one who needs to keep it up. In all aspects. It was just helping Wei Xiao stretch, but Lu Feng still ended up covered in sweat. After they were done, Wei Xiaos body felt a lot more comfortable. He thought about how hed howled and wailed, and was very ashamed, Even though I was crying, Im not usually so delicate. Really. As he was growing up, he didnt even complain when he was with his grandmother and didnt have enough to eat, yet with the captain Lu Feng was stunned for a moment. Wei Xiao tossed the blame at the captain, Its because youre too good to me! He was considerate and powerful; Wei Xiao suspected that nothing could defeat his captain. Lu Feng looked at the 19 year old boy in front of him, and much of the desire in his heart dissipated. Although he was only two years younger than him, Wei Xiao was really still a child. A half grown youth whod had an extreme shortage of care, one who was eager to be cared for. How strong hed been when he was a child was related to how childish he would be when he found support. Wei Xiao was depending on him. This understanding made the corners of Lu Fengs lips hook up. Great. He was only 19 now, so everything could proceed slowly. Lu Feng got up, Ill go ask about lunch. It had been over 10 minutes and should have been delivered by now. Wei Xiao moved his hands and feet, I asked Old Bai to send up food. Was that guy planning to come up only after hed eaten his fill. Lu Feng explained for Bai Cai, I ran into him when I came in just now and told him not to send anything. Wei Xiao understood. He then asked, Captain, have you eaten? Lu Feng: Not yet. Wei Xiaos eyes brightened, Together? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiaos happiness overflowed in his words, Thats great! Lu Feng looked at his smile and wanted to ask him why he was so happy. Wei Xiao had already continued in delight, You can eat the celery, while I eat the meat, were really a team made in heaven! Lu Feng: The great demon king was put in an awkward position. Wei Xiaoxiao plus celery, this was really too difficult. Todays points competition still had nothing to do with FTW. They were reduced to being the emperor of the bench after having played four games and could only watch the people on the stage play happily. Wei Xiaos eyes were heated up from watching, and he tried to collude with others left and right, Old G, how about a training match! Old G was happy, Okay! VIVI laughed, Your words dont count. Old G came back to his senses and looked regretfully at Wei Xiao, Oh, my words dont count. Wei Xiao egged him on, Go to your captain and act coquettish. His words count! Yuan Ze wasnt at the scene. Hed probably gone out to smoke. Old Gs face was bewildered, Coquettish? Wei Xiao: Yeah, yeah, yeah, when your captain comes, climb up and roll all over the place. Dont get up until he lets you make an appointment for a training match. The FTW crowd: Brother Xiao, your English is really good. You can even explain something like this clearly! The L&P crowd: Quiets English is no good, what is he talking about? How can Old G roll around and around on the floor like a brat? Gary obviously underestimated Wei Xiaos English level. He thought that hed spoken wrongly, so he asked him again. Wei Xiao thought it over, If your captain doesnt go for that kind of thing, you can become a crying beauty who yingyingying cries until he nods. Alright, this guys English was very good. It was more fluent than Old Gs Chinese! He was very clear about what he was saying! Old G refused him seriously, How could I do that! If he dared to do so, hed be hammered into a pigs head by the captain at any minute. Wei Xiao tempted him, How would you know if you dont try? Your captain really cares about you. Gary wondered out loud, How come I dont know that my captain cares about me? Wei Xiao was surprised, Your captain doesnt? Old G: Wei Xiao: If he doesnt care about you, then to hell with your top-jungler linkage. Hurry and Yuan Ze: Heh. Wei Xiao: ! Halfway through arranging the rebellion, the proper master came back. However, Wei Xiao was shameless and wouldnt be embarrassed by this at all. He lifted his face and smiled at Yuan Ze, Captain Yuan, youre back. Yuan Ze looked at his clean and clear eyes that held no trace of haze, and his hands itched: How did Close deal with this little beast who had an angels face and an evil demons heart! Lu Feng pressed his own cub back down, Watch the game. Wei Xiao was well-behaved and obedient, Kay. Yuan Ze, whod been left hanging, What made it more tragic was that his own pig teammate was still asking him, Captain, are you taking it seriously Yuan Zes goosebumps popped right out, and he conked the big fool on the head, If you motherf*cking had one third of that brats cleverness, wed have three consecutive championships by now! He spoke in Chinese, and Old G was very wronged as he half-understood, My mother is very clever Old Dog Yuan: Who dared to think that as someone who was famous in Glorys international circles, who had a language buff and was proficient in eight languages, this Old Dog Yuan who had countless foreign friends, would end up having the tables turned on him so thoroughly, frequently, and painfully! It was unknown if Old Gs acting coquettish actually worked, or if it was Wei Xiaos provocation that was effective. That night, L&P took the initiative to invite FTW to a training match. Not for points, but they opened a room for 5v5 in private. Wei Xiao was happy, Not bad, Old G. Brother Cai: Heh heh Everyone knew that Brother G was innocent in this. You were the real culprit! The training match was relatively relaxed. Although L&Ps Yuan Ze came up to fight, their mid-lane VIVi didnt play. A substitute was switched in instead, and it seemed that they were training their people. FTW didnt look down on it. Each fight they had was beneficial to them, and they wouldnt be concerned over such things. The two sides played BO3 (whoever reaches two wins first, three games max). FTW only won the first small game. Sure enough, they were still a strong team even after switching in a substitute. However, a strong teams substitutes were also very good top-level players. L&P training room. Gary spoke, Although I cant beat Little Lunatic Q when it comes to speaking, I can beat him in a fight! Yuan Ze had a cigarette in his mouth. He sneered, It wont be long before you cant beat him. Gary didnt believe it, Hes growing fast, but were not bad either! Yuan Ze blew out a smoke ring and laughed, Additional training when we go back. Gary wasnt afraid at all, Okay! Only when there was a sense of crisis would there be any progress. How could anyone riding on the front wave be willing to accept getting slapped to death by the wave behind them? Yuan Ze was really looking forward to this years global competition. Originally, everyone thought that Wei Xiao would be done with jogging after trying it out. Who couldve known that he would wake up again the next day? This time, he didnt set an alarm clock or have Lu Feng wake him up. He climbed out of bed when he heard the sounds of movement. Lu Feng looked at his dazed and confused appearance and thought that he was going to sleepwalk again. Wei Xiao tilted his head and looked at him with a tearful expression, Captain~ His cry made Lu Feng want to take a cold shower early in the morning, Go back to sleep if youre tired. Wei Xiao clutched at his head, rubbed his face, and spoke energetically, Run! Lu Feng: . Sometimes, he really had no choice but to admire Wei Xiaoxiao. Once he decided on something, he would grit his teeth and persevere. He said he wanted them to run together, and he really tried hard to get up early and run. On the third day of morning runs, Wei Xiao was still more dead than alive after the run. The good thing was that Lu Feng was already immunized and didnt need to take cold showers every day anymore. Wei Xiaos physique was really average. Lu Feng remembered that he was still alright two years agoCChe had the energy to solo for 48 hours, so his physical strength couldnt be that terrible. Wei Xiao was awkward and embarrassed, These two years passed in a confused daze. He spoke vaguely, but Lu Feng understood. Two years ago, Wei Xiaos grandma had still been alive. Wei Xiao had been doing things from childhood, and even if he didnt purposely do physical exercise, he was doing housework every day to help out the household. Unfortunately, hed been indulging himself over the past two years. His grandma passed away, his dreams were shattered, and all the happiness he felt was superficial. Bai Cai took him to do accompanying training, and he made money, but he didnt have anywhere to spend it. Additionally, every training game, and every solo game, was torture in disguise for Wei Xiao. He watched others work hard for the game, watched others burn brightly on the field Wei Xiao could only feel envy in his heart. During these two murky years, Wei Xiao was focused on either playing games or learning. Exercising was definitely not on the list. Going around in circles walking Soybean was already the limit. When he heard this, Lu Feng really wanted to take Wei Xiao to exercise with him. 19 was still young, and he could afford to indulge. However, the body was really important, especially for professional players Lu Fengs shoulder pricked slightly, and his heart plummeted. Breathe with me. Lu Feng taught Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was confused, Ah? Lu Feng slowed down and fell into step beside him, Inhale, two steps, exhale, two steps There was technique to running. Before, hed just felt that Wei Xiao was messing around temporarily and would stop running after a few days. Who couldve expected that he would follow him to run for so many days. Since he wanted to run, he should run in a scientific manner, so as to achieve the best effect. Wei Xiao followed his breathing and soon learned the rhythm, It doesnt seem as hard to breathe like this. Lu Feng: Take your time. Wei Xiao said sincerely, Captain, youre really too amazing. How could there be a man as amazing as Close? He even regretted that he wasnt a woman! F*ck! Wei Xiaoxiao was frightened by his own silly thoughts! Quiet? Kim Sung-hyuns Korean-accented English came from beside them. Wei Xiao came back to his senses and noticed God Kim, who was a small distance away from them on the lawn. Kim Sung-hyun was also out for a morning run. He wore a white short-sleeved shirt, black shorts, and his sport shoes were expensive, limited edition Air Jordans, the type that was more suited to be put out on display. Wei Xiao greeted him. Kim Sung-hyun took a few steps forward to catch up, You got dragged out for a run by your captain? Wei Xiao spoke righteously, Its me thats relying on my captain and insisted on having him take me out for a run! Kim Sung-hyun choked for half a second, Youre really capable. Wei Xiao started nagging at him, How is Captain Li? Once this matter was brought up, Kim Sung-hyun sighed, Much better. Wei Xiao: Can he play in the last days prize pool competition? Kim Sung-hyun sneered, Dont worry, its not a problem to hammer you until you explode. Wei Xiao was excited, Okay! Im waiting for you guys! Kim Sung-hyun: He always felt that trash talking with this brat was meaningless. His aura and momentum all bounced back on him! The hotel garden was quite big, but only the three of them had come out for a run. Kim Sung-hyun was bored running alone, so he came over and joined them. Wei Xiao chatted with him on and off. Lu Feng reminded him, Breathing. Wei Xiao quickly steadied his breathing, but after a few breaths, he couldnt help showing off, My captain taught me this. Its so useful! Kim Sung-hyun: .. Who didnt know how to do this? Why the hell were you showing off. Kim Sung-hyun looked at Lu Feng, and his heart felt sour for a moment. Theyd been the same height three years ago, but now he was half a head taller. Not to mention the figure underneath his clothes; tsk tsk, Little Close, are you planning to make a debut as a model after retiring? Old Kim felt very sour, Your captain is really capable. He wont have any occupational diseases even if he plays for another ten years. These were words that Wei Xiao loved to hear, I think so too. There are so many people who can play professionally, but when it comes to how long they can last, nobody can beat my captain. Kim Sung-hyun was envious, If Old Li had started exercising earlier, he wouldnt be as miserable now. Wei Xiao was very concerned, It should still be okay to start exercising now. Kim Sung-hyun: Yes, working up a sweat every day can relieve the symptoms. Wei Xiao was worried when he heard this, Is the physiotherapy effective? Kim Sung-hyun: The problem was discovered early and treated early. As long as he doesnt tire himself too much, its not a big problem. Wei Xiao was relieved, Thats good. Kim Sung-hyun was full of self-confidence, Dont worry, this year, the championship cup will belong to Pro. Wei Xiao didnt accept these words, What are you thinking, the world championship cup is surnamed F this year. What a coincidence, in the entire league, only FTW started with the letter F. Kim Sung-hyun wanted to say that it was surnamed P, but then he remembered that there were three seeded teams in the league that started with the letter P F*ck, hed lost! Lu Feng and Wei Xiao had gone out for their run 20 minutes earlier, but they ended up going back together with Kim Sung-hyun. Wei Xiao even had the nerve to disdain others, God Kim, you really cant do it. Kim Sung-hyun was so tired he didnt want to talk, Shut up! Wei Xiao spoke complacently, My captain has already reduced his speed. You dont know this, but a few days ago, he left me half dead. Kim Sung-hyun: Lu Feng: . Proud Flower Kim knew about Lu Fengs sexual orientation. For a while, he didnt know if he should feel pity or compassion and sympathy, Keep it up. He was encouraging his former teammate. Wei Xiao replied for his captain, God Kim, youre the one who needs to keep it up. In all aspects. Kim Sung-hyun: FTW was poisonous. Back then, there was Old Dog Yuan, and now there was Little Lunatic Wei. Was their fengshui really okay?! Chapter 78.2: His heart thumped, and he saw his own thoughts clearly at this moment... At lunch, Ning Zhehan heard about Wei Xiaos great achievements and was full of admiration. Wei Xiao was both low-key and lively as he said, Its nothing much. Running is very simple, as long as you breathe every two steps, inhaling every two steps and exhaling every two steps, maintain a steady breathing rhythm and improve your speed to keep up with the captains pace, its like a passers-by team meeting a professional team in 5v5. Just run and be done with it. Brother Cai, who was gnawing on a lobster, Its really a waste for you not to go and perform crosstalk. Wei Xiao looked at him, Crosstalk on my own is boring. Old Bai, give me some praise. Brother Cai had enough, Get lost! When Lu Feng, Chen Feng, and Tang Chen came over, Wei Xiao had already egged on the whole team, Come running, its fun and exciting! Lu Feng: . Chen Feng: What could they say? What could they, as adults, say to this bratty child?! Tang Chen stepped up, What running, go swimming instead. As soon as he said this, Wei Xiao instantly realized, Oh yeah! They were staying on a holiday island. Why were they doing boring running and not playing around by going swimming? Chen Feng staggered. He really wanted to hammer Tang Chen to death! Would you die if you spoke less?! Was swimming something a human would do?! Wei Xiao was encouraged, Fellow brothers, lets not go running. Well go to the sea and go wild! Ning Zhehan was interested, I-I brought swimming trunks! Yue Wenle: Brother Cai wasnt interested at all, Im sleeping. Wei Xiao glared at him, Do you believe that Ill throw your suitcase into the sea. Brother Cais heart leapt, Wei Xiao, f*ck your daddy, if you dare to covet my suitcase, Ill f*cking fight you! If his 66,000 dollar suitcase sank to the bottom of the sea, hed follow it and jump into the water! Half of FTW was interested, but it was still a certain person who was in charge. Wei Xiao looked at Lu Feng, Captain, how about going swimming! He didnt know if the things hed taught Old G were useful or not, but in any case, his own coquettish skills were maxed out. Chen Feng turned his head to look at Lu Feng and thought to himself: Hold on, hold on, you cant agree. Going wild in the sea, that is something you can resist! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao looked at him with wide eyes, How about it? Lu Feng: Alright. Coach Chen, pwned. This matter was settled. At 10AM tomorrow morning, the FTW teams itineraryCCgoing wild in the sea, er, no, swimming. Theyd been training for nearly ten days. Going out to relax and play for a bit wasnt a bad thing. It wasnt easy for them to come to a resort, and it would be difficult to explain away if they didnt relax for a while. Xiang Liu arranged the itinerary and even found a set of uniform swimming trunks. Brother Liu explained, The sponsors were prepared. They said that if theres a swimming event, they recommend taking a daily life photo. It might not be the case for other teams, but FTW was notoriously strong in the looks department. If they really made a swimming poster, the traffic to the official blog would explode, and the sponsors small logo would also follow suit and rise up to the skies. Unfortunately, Xiang Liu didnt dare to mess around with such things and asked Lu Feng for his opinion first. Lu Feng looked at the swimming trunks, and the image of Wei Xiaoxiaos slim waist came up in his brain No photos. The great demon king refused directly. Xiang Liu wasnt surprised. FTW didnt need to rely on these things to make money. It had always been focused on its main purpose. The teams high level looks wasnt intentional: there was no need to mention Brother Cai, a fine and tender youth (not really). Back then, Old Yue had been recommended by Brother Cai, and FTW was already super happy to have a reliable marksman and didnt have the time to spare to care about how they looked; Ning Zhehan had been signed after FTW had won the domestic championship and felt the most confident, and this future mage king whod been bought back at a high price of 3 million hadnt been signed because of his fashionable style. As for Wei Xiao, whod finally returned to the team. Who couldve known that the grandmaster would look like this? Previously, Xiang Liu had made up a bald, fat man in his head when it came to the grandmaster! As of now, any casual photo taken of FTWs five players looked like they all wanted to make their idol debut. Xiang Lius life was very difficult. He was clearly the manager of an e-sports club. How come it was like he was leading a boyband?! Especially when it came to their online fans. Any inattentiveness would lead them to becoming stars of the entertainment industry. They had more haters than fans, but the fans were more fierce than the haters. Their quarrels were enough to overturn the heavens and shake the earth. FTWs operations team was also very tired, okay? In order to have fans focus on the players competitions instead of their faces, they didnt have it easy! The next day, everyone got up early. Lu Feng watched as the clock moved closer to ten oclock, and his mood was very complex. He pushed aside the papers in front of him and leaned back in his chair. Swimming. To go or not to go. He thought of Wei Xiaos bright smile and wasnt willing to let him down. He thought of his bared body and clingy appearance, and Lu Feng felt that he was really suffering. Self-inflicted suffering made it difficult to live. He hadnt expected that these words would one day end up pasted onto the great demon kings forehead. The FTW crowd ran into Yuan Ze when they went downstairs. Yuan Ze was surprised, This is Lu Feng: Were going for a run together, coming? Yuan Ze was shocked, No, no. F*ck, was something wrong with FTW? They were going downstairs together so early in the morning for a run?! Wei Xiao couldnt hear their conversation. If he had, he would definitely go over to add fuel to the fire by saying a few more sentences. Since FTW didnt intend to take daily life pictures of the team members on the beach, it was even more impossible to let others take photos of them. They found a clean stretch of beach to play on. Everyone wore their team uniforms on the way downstairs, with their swimming trunks inside. They just had to take off their uniforms to go into the water. Ning Zhehan couldnt swim. He was very happy just holding onto a dolphin buoy; Old Yue was astonishingly pale when he removed his clothing, worthy of being Glorys notorious little white face; Brother Cai knew how to swim and had already gone off to play. Tang Chen was the darkest in the team. He clutched at the back of his head and said, This isnt right, I dont normally feel that Im very dark, hey. His skin was a wheat color, how come it seemed so tan when he compared it to the others?! Wei Xiaos skin color wasnt as pale as Yue Wenle, nor was he as thin and white as Brother Cai. His figure was very good. He didnt have much muscle, but he didnt appear weak. He took off his clothes and revealed his waistline, slender and pale and particularly attractive. Lu Feng glanced over once, then shifted his gaze away. Chen Feng didnt go into the water. He hid beneath the sun umbrella and sneered, Happy? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao looked around everywhere for the captain, and ran over to say, Captain, hurry up, theyre all in the water. Lu Feng didnt know where to look, You go and play, Ill wait for you here. Wei Xiao was surprised, Youre not coming? Lu Feng: . Chen Feng saved him, Your captain cant swim. Wei Xiao was startled, Ah? Lu Feng remained silent. Wei Xiaos tone was rueful, Why didnt you say so earlier? If you cant swim, why did we come to the seaside to play? Lu Fengs heart warmed, You guys play. Wei Xiao was unwilling to accept this and continued, Ill find you a swimming ring. Chen Feng continued to save his boss, Dont do that. Its okay for Little Ning to use a floating ring, but if your captain takes one and enters the water, hm isnt that too shameful? Wei Xiao: That was true. He looked regretfully at Lu Feng, Next time, we wont go play in the water. Lu Feng looked down a little and saw the youths healthy, beautiful body beneath the sun He thought to himself that it wasnt a bad idea not to go play, but his mouth said, Go play, everyones waiting for you. Wei Xiao left reluctantly. Lu Feng sat on the beach chair and drank a big mouthful of ice water. Chen Feng narrowed his eyes, Say, does Little Lunatic Wei really not understand what youre thinking? Lu Feng: . Chen Feng answered for him, He really doesnt. As long as he understood even a little, he wouldnt dare to go so wild! Although Lu Feng didnt join them, FTWs four little ones all had a good time. They were all half grown-up youths. Normally, other than training, it was just more training. Playing in the water occasionally was really a happy occurrence. Wei Xiao was a good swimmer. He knew breaststroke and freestyle, and at the end, he pretended to do a butterfly stroke. Tang Chen cheered for him and casually revealed, Closes butterfly is super handsome! Wei Xiao: ??? He got out of the water and pushed back his wet hair, Captain, butterfly? Brother Tang sold Chen Feng out all the way to the sky, Yeah, its really amazing. That strength is absolute. Wei Xiao didnt say another word and rushed towards the beach. Chen Feng was chatting with Lu Feng and was taken by surprise when he saw him heading over with a murderous aura. Wei Xiao was wet all over. The water beads on his clean body shone in the sun. Lu Feng picked up the towel beside him and threw it at his body. Wei Xiao wiped his face with the towel and said indignantly, Captain, you lied to me! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao was too excited, and his foot landed unsteadily. He called out ouch Lu Feng immediately got up and pulled the youth into his arms. Wei Xiao clung to him, his entire person sticking against his body. How could Lu Fengs thin t-shirt withstand this body covered with water? Lu Fengs heart pounded, and his blood surged through his body. Wei Xiao raised his head. His eyes that were damp with water were brighter than usual, Brother Tang said that your butterfly stroke is really handsome! But you said that you cant swim! Sure enough, there was nothing that his captain couldnt do. Lu Feng took a breath, I didnt say I couldnt swim. Wei Xiao was stunned. He thought about it. Just now, it was all their coach talking, and Lu Feng hadnt said anything. Wei Xiao was still dissatisfied, Then, why not go into the water! Lu Fengs voice was a little hoarse, Today, I I dont feel comfortable. Wei Xiao could hear it in his voice. He looked at him, A cold? This hoarse voice, um Wei Xiaos ears inexplicably began to burn. Lu Feng helped him stand up properly and steadied his heartbeat, A little. Wei Xiao grew anxious, Rest early. If your body isnt comfortable, dont try to brave it out. Go back and quickly get some rest. Lu Feng wrapped him up tightly in the bath towel, You should also go back earlier. Wei Xiao nodded, Yes! Lu Feng really left. If he didnt leave now, he would end up carrying Wei Xiao away with him. Chen Feng, who was to the side, had to endure Wei Xiaoxiaos endless chattering. Chen Feng: Come on, talk as you like. There will come a time when you cant say anything. Because he missed Lu Feng, Wei Xiao didnt play for long before going back upstairs. Hed already gotten dressed, but his hair was still wet, Captain? Lu Feng was calm now, Youre back? Wei Xiao was strangely nervous, Are you a little better now? He reached out towards his forehead. Lu Feng caught his hand, Its fine. Wei Xiao: If you feel uncomfortable, dont force it. Lu Feng nodded. He couldnt quite move his gaze away. Wei Xiao felt a little itchy from being watched, Is there something on my face? Lu Feng came back to his senses and changed the subject, These last few days are you doing all this because of Li Heran. One sentence poked straight into Wei Xiaos thoughts. Wei Xiao dropped his eyes. Lu Feng felt his heart soften into a mess when he saw him like this. He got up early to run with him, and insisted even when he was extremely tired. Today, he led the whole team to take part in an outdoor activity How could Lu Feng not understand? It had all started from when Li Heran couldnt go up and play. Although he didnt know what Wei Xiaos little brain was thinking, he could confirm that it was related to hazards of occupational diseases. Wei Xiao spoke in a small voice, That day, I heard Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran arguing. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiaos heart suddenly clenched, and the fear that had originally retreated started to spread out again, So I thought, if you were like in Captain Lis situation, I Lu Fengs heart trembled. An indescribable emotion filled up his entire chest. Hed guessed a bit of it, but he hadnt thought that it would be like this. Was Wei Xiao so haunted by fear because of him? Lu Fengs voice was gentle, It wont be like that. Wei Xiao looked up at him, Of course it wont. You exercise every day, your body is in good shape, and youll definitely play longer than anyone else! Lu Fengs voice felt like it was being blocked by something and it was somewhat difficult to speak, Dont worry, Ill accompany you until the end. Wei Xiaos eyes brightened, Well retire together? Lu Feng: Yes, well retire together. The cloud that had hovered around Wei Xiao for several days suddenly dispersed. He trusted Lu Feng, trusted Close, and believed every word he said. Im only 19 now. I can still play for six or seven years at least! Lu Feng laughed softly, Yes. Wei Xiaos eyes curved into crescent moons, Then, its a deal? Lu Feng: Yes. It was a very, very lightly spoken word, but the weight of it was very heavy. Wei Xiaos chest seemed to be filled with marshmallows. At this time, because of Lu Fengs gaze, the marshmallows were completely melted, sticky and sweet, filling up his entire heart. Accompany you to the end. Deal. Wei Xiao didnt blink as he looked at Lu Feng. The more he looked, the more he liked what he saw. His heart thumped, and he saw his own thoughts clearly at this momentCC He was done for. He actually wanted to marry the captain! xiin: FINALLY WX YOURE STARTING TO UNDERSTAND Chapter 79.1: Wei Xiao: Damn it, he had so many love rivals! You slipped just now. Is your foot alright? Lu Feng was still concerned about the way Wei Xiaos foot had landed unsteadily when he was on the beach. Although Wei Xiao had then gone to play in the water again, hed been unable to let it go. He was worried that Wei Xiao was being too careless and wouldnt be concerned even if hed hurt himself. Wei Xiao abruptly came back to his senses, Ah? Lu Feng said, Sit down. Wei Xiao, whod just been knocked over by his own thoughts, sat down on the bed. Lu Feng bent down and pressed his clean, slender hand over his ankle, Does it hurt? Wei Xiaos brain was buzzing. It had exploded. Lu Feng looked up at him, Hm? Wei Xiaos cheeks turned red, and his voice trembled, Itchy It was so itchy. The place that the captain was touching was so itchy that it made his heart jump around wildly. Lu Feng quickly snatched his hand back, his movements so fast it was like hed been scalded. Wei Xiao might claim to be a beast, but hed never thought that hed really be such an animal. He took a deep breath and jumped out of bed, saying, It doesnt hurt, its fine. Im going to go blow-dry my hair! A whole pot of hot water seemed to be boiling in Lu Fengs brain. How could he continue the conversation? After hiding in the bathroom, Wei Xiao lifted his hand and pressed down on his heart. God, were human hearts really able to beat so fast? Was it f*cking dancing and bouncing around in Laozis body?! Wei Xiao couldnt keep his gaze from shifting down. He stared at his left ankle. The scene from just now popped into his head repeatedly, pew pew pew. The captain looked gentle and handsome. His hands, which were known as the most expensive and good looking hands, had held onto his ankle A numbing electric shock ran all the way from his ankle all over his body, making his cheeks burn hot. Wei Xiao looked at the feverish self in the mirror. He took a deep breath: Who exactly had caught a cold here?! Ahhhhh Wei Xiao turned on the hair dryer, switching the settings to cold air and blowing it straight at his head. Calm down! Old Wei, calm the hell down! That was the captain! It was Close, it was Glorys number one person. That was the faith that you chased! After splashing himself with cold water and blowing dry his damp hair with cold air, Wei Xiao achieved his wish and sneezed loudly. The hair dryer wasnt loud. The sound of his sneezing transmitted into the room. Lu Feng came back to his senses and started to worry againCChad he caught a cold? His face was so red just now, did he have a fever? Lu Feng wanted to go take a look, but after he placed his hand on the handle, he couldnt bring himself to press down. Hed wait for a bit, wait until he was finished blow-drying his hair and came back out. Wei Xiao finished blow-drying his hair and successfully calmed himself down. It was just that he was a little cold now. It seemed that the temperature had dropped a lot. As soon as he came out, Lu Feng handed him a cup of hot water, Did you catch a cold? Wei Xiao accepted the hot water. He was just about to say no when he sneezed again. Lu Fengs eyebrows drew together, Did you take a cold shower just now? Wei Xiao raised his head. His eyes were full of damp mist, Mm The hotel had a special shower room for guests coming out of the sea. Wei Xiao didnt want to track sand and sediment into the building, so hed rinsed himself with the water downstairs. Although it was winter in China, it was summer on the island. The water temperature was cool, and Wei Xiao had felt very comfortable during the shower. Lu Feng continued to ask, Did you run up here before drying off? Wei Xiao had been anxious to come up and see the captain, so hed only wiped himself down briefly before running upstairs. Lu Feng thought about his damp hair and knew that he wasnt wrong. Wait. Lu Feng pressed him down onto the bed. Wei Xiao was so regretful he could die. If he hadnt blown cold air at himself just now, he wouldnt have caught a cold. But, at the time, if he hadnt done so, he was afraid that he might have done some sort of beastly thing! Ahhhhh. Had he gone crazy. How could he be attracted to the captain! It wasnt spring yet. Why was he thinking of falling in love! And it was with Close, damnit Wei Xiao nestled inside the quilt and felt that he was mostly done for. A 19 year old youth. Hed lived to such an age without ever thinking about such things. Yet suddenly, when he picked up a crush, it was for another man. Wei Xiaoxiao, who wasnt even afraid of the heavens and earth, was quaking now. What to do He was too ashamed to see the captain! Lu Feng soon came back with a bowl of ginger tea in his hands. Xiang Liu always had standard medicine on hand. Hed brought some of it upstairs but didnt rush to feed it to Wei Xiao. If hed caught a cold, he should drink some ginger tea first to warm up, and it should reduce the severity of whatever he had. When Wei Xiao heard the door open, he simply decided to close his eyes. He was too ashamed to see him and closed his eyes for a while. Lu Fengs movements were very light. His voice was gentle, seeming to sound out right beside his ear, Asleep? Wei Xiao: F*ck, why didnt he feel that the captains voice was charged with electricity before this?! Wei Xiao opened his eyes with a swish, looking at him with wide eyes. Lu Feng coaxed him, Drink a bowl of ginger tea and get some sleep. Youll be fine by afternoon. Wei Xiao sat up and looked at the steaming, hot bowl of tea. His mood was complicated, Captain werent you the one who caught a cold. Lu Feng had forgotten all about this. Hed pretended to be sick earlier just to stay out of the water. Lu Feng faked a cough, You shouldnt catch a cold as well. Wei Xiao didnt want to drink the ginger tea. He was hesitating and dragging out his motions. Lu Feng saw through it, You dont like the spiciness? This kid was very picky about food. He didnt like spicy, sour, bitter, or even particularly salty tastes. He liked to eat watermelon, the crispy and sweet type, and would treat half a watermelon as a full meal. It was no wonder that he was so thin. Not only did Wei Xiao dislike spiciness, he also felt that the fire in his heart was a little too strong and drinking ginger tea wasnt appropriate. As a lonely, single man in the shared dormitory, he was afraid that the captain would be in danger. Lu Feng tasted it, Theres sugar in it. The taste isnt bad. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng continued, Ill go get more sugar How could he be willing to let the captain run around for him twice? Even before Lu Feng could finish speaking, Wei Xiao had picked up the tea bowl, closed his eyes, and downed it all in one go. Spicy hot and a little sweet. Wei Xiao frowned and set down the bowl, Done! Lu Feng looked at the damp lip stains that were overlapped on the tea bowl, and his eyes flashed. Wei Xiao only realized after the fact that the place where hed drunk the ginger tea from coincided with the place where Lu Feng had sipped from before to taste it. An in-indirect kiss? Wei Xiao: ! He didnt mean to, he really hadnt meant to! Even though he indeed had hidden intentions. Lu Feng set down the tea bowl and covered him with the quilt, Rest for a while. Wei Xiao was well-behaved and lay down, looking at him, What about you, captain? Your throat is uncomfortable. Did you take some medicine? Yes. Wont you rest for a while? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao felt that he was going crazy, Stay and keep me company? Lu Feng looked at his cheeks that were flushed from his cold. His heart leapt. Wei Xiao felt like hed died after he said those words. However, he was worthy of being Naughty God Wei; his mouth was braver than his brain, Since we both have a cold, isnt it better to sleep together and sweat it out? Wei Xiao was shocked at himself: F*ck, Laozi was really a beast! Lu Feng really didnt dare to agree. This brats mouth had no filter and was willing to joke about anything, but he couldnt do the same. If they slept together in this kind of situation Lu Feng flicked his forehead, Sleep. It wasnt the first or even the second time that Wei Xiao had had his forehead flicked, but it was the first time it made his eyebrows feel itchy, so itchy that he grew brave again, Are you going to leave? Lu Feng: Ill wait until youre asleep. Wei Xiaos mouth was filled with sweetness, like the ginger tea just now had transformed into honey tea. When I was a child and caught a cold, my grandma would also keep me company like this. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao was more energetic the more he thought about it, And shed put her hand here. He reached out his arm and placed Lu Fengs hand on his forehead. Both of them were stunned for a moment. Wei Xiaos forehead wasnt hot, but Lu Fengs hand was very hot. One of them felt scalded, and the other one also felt scalded. Lu Feng retrieved his hand, Sleeping or not? Wei Xiao felt incredibly guilty, Sleeping! And he really fell asleep Hed slept late and gotten up early because hed been excited about playing in the water that morning. Additionally, hed really caught a bit of a cold and dazedly fell asleep. Wei Xiao had a dream. In just one hour, he actually managed to have a very long dream. He dreamed that he was standing on a stage filled with bright lights, holding the dazzling championship cup as he spoke to Lu Feng, I like you! All the glory, all the passion of youth, all given to this one person. The one whod pulled him out of the mud and given him new life. Close. His captain. When Wei Xiao woke up, Lu Feng was long gone. He looked at the time and was relieved; it was only twelve oclock, so there was no need to panic. Bai Cai came to find him to go eat together. Wei Xiao was absent-minded as he played with his cell phone. Brother Cai had also gone to catch up on sleep. He yawned, What are you looking at? Wei Xiao was startled and quickly hid away his cell phone. Brother Cai was suspicious, So mysterious. What are you doing. Wei Xiao pushed him away, Go and get some food. Laozis hungry. Bai Cais words were full of disdain for him, Dont you f*cking have hands of your own! But his body was honest, and he brought back a lot of delicious food. Wei Xiao was very busy. He sat down and started to google seriously. He didnt quite remember the dream hed had that noon very clearly, but the idea that remained on the tip of his heart wasCC like you. F*ck, he liked Lu Feng. He liked Close. He liked the captain! It was that kind of like. Exactly, the gay type of like! Aftre three seconds of psychological struggle, Wei Xiao accepted the fact that he was gay. In any case, he hadnt liked anyone before in his first 19 years of life. Now, he liked who he liked. It didnt matter if it was male or female. The important point was that it was the captain. After recognizing his own feelings, Wei Xiao had countless concerns. First of all, hed fallen in love with his immediate boss. Office romance, give it a try? Secondly, hed fallen in love with his life mentor. Teacher-student (not really) romance, give it a try? Thirdly, hed fallen in love with a man who had tens of thousands of madame fans and wife fans. Idol romance, give it a try? Lastly, hed fallen in love with a man whose sexual orientation was unknown. Unrequited love, give it a try? Ah Wei Xiaos life was too difficult. Baidu was going to explode from his searches. A furtive office romance was very sweet, a teacher-student love was taboo and a little abusive, idol love was risky and may affect his reputation, finally, being lovelorn Well, who wouldve thought that there wasnt even the slightest sign of the start of a romance, but Wei Xiaoxiao had already started looking through how to recover from a failed romance. Preparation averts peril. After all, there was a 70% chance of failure. It was about the same rate as his solo games against the captain. After searching through these things, Wei Xiao switched to a new set of keywordsCCClose, romance. Tens of thousands of results popped up, and there were even YY novels: My secret love affair with God Lu. Im God Lus only woman. Those years as Closes hidden lover. I got married to God Lu. Wei Xiao: Damn it, he had so many love rivals! He changed keywords againCCClose, same sex. Oh, geez. There were even more results. As a man with a list of CPs as long as the Great Wall, he loved a countless number of men! What the hell could he find like this. Let alone sexual orientation, just searching like this left Wei Xiao with a mouthful of vinegar. When Brother Cai came back, Wei Xiao was still staring at his cell phone. Are you eating or not! He couldnt figure out what this fellow had gone off to do this time. Wei Xiao put down his cell phone and started to eat absentmindedly. Bai Cai: Eat if youre going to eat. Dont waste food if youre not eating. Wei Xiao really didnt have much of an appetite. He looked at the innocent Brother Cai and sighed, I envy you. Brother Vegetable: ??? Wei Xiao shook his head and ate some pasta. Telling him was impossible. He couldnt tell anyone about this, including Brother Cai. The captains identity was too special. He was afraid that if he didnt handle things well, FTW, which had only just barely started to stand up again, would collapse. He couldnt ruin so many peoples dreams with his own selfish desires. Wei Xiao knew what was important. Hed take his time Wei Xiao comforted himself: The one whod started an office romance spent half a year testing things out; the teacher-student relationship was even more fierce and had only confessed after graduation; as for the idol romance, oh, that was a light novel and couldnt be used as reference for real life. In any case, he could see, eat, sleep, and live with the captain every day. It was like they were in a relationship even if they werent. Hold on! Brother Xiao, you can still win! xiin: so who else guessed that WX would be like an energizer bunny on crack once he figured out his feelings? Chapter 79.2: I like you too. Do you want to have breakfast? Wei Xiao only saw Lu Feng again when they started the free matching that afternoon. Lu Feng saw that he was in a good state, Better now? Wei Xiao replied quickly, After drinking the captains ginger tea, how could I dare have a cold. Lu Feng ignored his pithy remarks and came over to feel his forehead, Be careful, dont get cold. Wei Xiao held back his little heart that was bouncing and jumping, Okay! Lu Feng kept feeling like his gaze was a little hot. He sat down, then asked, Double queue? He couldnt think of anything else that would make this kid so eager. Wei Xiao beamed with joy, Yeah! Sweet and intimate double queue. It was a great way to cultivate feelings. Lu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, Come on, then. Once it came to playing games, Wei Xiao began to go crazy. Their luck was pretty good. Theyd first encountered Yuan Ze, who was queuing on his own, then Old G, who was double queueing. In the second last game, they encountered Kim Sung-hyun and played as teammates. When the opposite side saw their line-up, they already wanted to surrender. How could they play this game? The great demon king was on the top lane, Daddy Hyun was on the bottom lane, and there was a little lunatic playing jungler. The pitiful thing was that their opposing team was a group of scattered players. They didnt have a single player to rely on! If it hadnt been the pride of a professional player supporting them, they wouldve simply waved goodbye. After the game was over, Wei Xiao was full of disdain at Kim Sung-hyun, God Kim, hit the matching button a bit later. It was too boring for the three of them to play together. The top lane didnt require his support, the bottom lane didnt require his support, and other than going to kill off the mid-lane, there was nothing else to do but play around in the bushes. There was nothing fun about it! Kim Sung-hyun sneered, Maybe well be opponents in the next game. Wei Xiao: The koi was worthy of their name. These words were really great. In the last game, they really became opponents. Lu Feng and Wei Xiao ran into Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun, who were both single queued. God Kim: Hello, Old Shit! Yuan Ze: Because it was on the public chat, Wei Xiao was amused, Who is this old rat shit? Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao suddenly saw the light, It turned out to be Captain Yuan! Yuan Ze put out his cigarette, Little friend, lie down and wait. Like hell was Wei Xiao afraid, Come, Im waiting for you. Lu Feng was locked onto Yuan Ze for the entire game, messing with him until he smashed his keyboard, F*ck, did Close go crazy?! Hadnt he just taught him a verbal lesson? Did he have to be so heavy with his revenge?! Since Kim Sung-hyun and Yuan Zes internal fighting was a serious problem, they showed no tacit understanding. Lu Feng suppressed Yuan Ze to death and didnt even give him a chance to breathe. Wei Xiao was able to go crazy for an entire game and even obtained the killing spree achievement. FTWs points were very high that day, but unfortunately, they had no opportunity for training matches, and could only sit there and watch others play happily. It seemed like it had only been a blink of the eye. More than 10 days had passed since the start of training. There were only two days left before the final prize pool competition. Wei Xiao continued to run with Lu Feng. He got out of bed on time no matter what, and became more and more energetic as he ran. Although he was still panting for breath after each run, it was already much better than at the beginning. They ran into acquaintances again during their morning run. Wei Xiao quickly greeted them, Captain Li, is your wrist better now? Thats right. Theyd run into Li Heran head-on. Li Heran understood a bit of Chinese and said, Its good now. Wei Xiao was really looking forward to it, See you the day after tomorrow! Li Heran: Mm. See you then. Because they were running in opposite directions, the two sides separated after a brief encounter. Wei Xiao drew close to Lu Feng, You see, Kim Sung-hyun cant do it. He couldnt hold on after two days of running. Im still more reliable. He took this opportunity to boast about himself. Lu Feng: Youre great. Wei Xiaos heart was itchy from listening to him. He continued, I can continue to accompany you for your morning runs. We can continue when we get back to the base. The corner of Lu Fengs lips curved. Good. Wei Xiao felt that he didnt sound committed enough, Really! As long as you run, Ill run, regardless of rain or shine! Lu Feng looked at him, Then, what if I dont run? Wei Xiao expressed his loyalty, Ill accompany you to do whatever youre doing. Lu Feng: . He always had the feeling that Wei Xiaoxiao had become more sticky over these past few days. Lu Feng was afraid that Wei Xiao would continue to deliver fake sugar to his heart and changed the topic, The domestic competition will start soon after we return home. Wei Xiao was full of energy, I know. For FTW, their growth had been amazing over these ten plus days. Wei Xiao and Lu Feng had fully adapted to their respective positions, and the Old Bai whod grown serious also gave them more possibilities with their line-ups. Little Ning was still young, but he had a lot of room for growth. As long as he was tempered well, he would definitely become the mage king of a new generation. Yue Wenles only problem was that he often got caught up in the game. After playing training matches more often, it became clear that this quiet baby-faced youth who didnt like to speak much and only focused on chomping potato chips would let the game affect him as soon as there was a downturn in the game. The harder he was hammered, the more impulsive he would become. He wasnt like other marksmen at all! Chen Feng had criticized him several times. Yue Wenle listened to him very seriously, Ill pay attention to it next time. Next time, it would be the same. Being unwilling to lose was a good thing, and not backing down was a good thing. But reason should still be maintained! Fight when they had a chance to win, and play carefully and focus on development when they couldnt fight! In this regard, Wei Xiao felt quite ashamed. He talked to Bai Cai about it privately several times, Is this the aftereffect of Old Yue getting beaten up by me before? Brother Cais words hit the bullseye, Theres really quite a few people who have aftereffects from being beaten by you. Nearby were Old Yue and Asleep. Further away, there were Moonlit and Eurostar. In this winter training camp, the brightest cubs were all from the China competition zone. On the last days prize pool competition, the support channels for the game were opened up in advance. There was no need to mention the four godly teams. The support they received was shockingly high. After that was RR from Group B. This time, Moonlit had really performed well. Winning against Xie He had made him famous, and he was the strongest dark horse in Group B. Then, there was Group As FTW. Close had given up playing jungler and had switched to the top lane. Quiet came in out of nowhere, and could play on the same level as L&P, going so far as to take Pros points. Their strength was amazing. Chinas TPT had been quiet in the early stages. After RR had no more points competition game chances, they started to shine. A quiet, silent team had already collected data on the remaining 17 teams. They were always multiple steps ahead in the BP segment of the game, and their calculations could leave their opponents in a state of collapse. By contrast, the 3U seemed to be overshadowed. Until one day, during free matching, Asleep and Cong Yi ran into Li Heran and Kim Sung-hyun in a doubles game. At first, the fans had come to see the Koi team. Then, they were completely led astray by the Pajamas CP. This support player was amazing, hey, he was as good as Li Heran. This jungler was so cool. Was the China competition zone so abundant in mad dogs?! All these newcomers, why were they all so crazy! After winning against the Koi team in a doubles game, Pajamas became famous. Although Li Heran hadnt played for a few days and was still warming up. Although Kim Sung-hyun had casually taken a clumsy, short-ranged gunner, winning was still winning! 3Us Asleep and Cong Yi let China see more hope on the horizon. Todays new doubles competition championships, just imagine it! Lu Feng had brought up the domestic competition with Wei Xiao not for the sake of analyzing the teams, but because Ill accompany you to finish the school deferral process when we get back. Wei Xiao was stunned. Lu Fengs voice was warm, The procedures arent troublesome, you dont have to worry. Wei Xiao knew why Lu Feng mentioned this. As he ran, his warmed up body made it so that his heart didnt feel so cold, Does it require family members to make an appearance? Lu Feng: Although youre an adult, parental consent is still required for such a big matter. Wei Xiao: He had parents, a set of parents that he never saw. Lu Feng slowed down and said quietly, If you dont want to go home, I can show up and go with them Wei Xiao shook his head, Its okay, I can do it. Lu Feng was full of heartache, Lets stop our run here for today. Wei Xiao nodded and followed him back to the hotel room. The two of them separated to shower. Wei Xiaos brain was a mess. How much he missed his parents when he was a child was equal to how much he hated them when he grew up. Especially after his grandma left; it was like a sharp pain that drilled into his heart and lungs every time he thought of them. His father. As a son, he wasnt filial; as a father, he wasnt loving. His mother only placed importance on her husband and saw nothing else. Wei Xiao had never been able to figure it out. Why had they given birth to him if they didnt need him? Since he didnt have parents, why did he have to accept their torment and suffering? Grandma left. They went back, regretted and repented, then apologized. What use was that? On what basis should they be forgiven! Wei Xiao closed his eyes and raised his head to the shower head so that his useless tears would be washed away by the water. He stayed in the bathroom for quite a long time. Lu Feng came to knock on the door. Wei Xiao came back to his senses, Coming! He didnt think about it and opened the door. Two pairs of eyes met. Water was still flowing. Lu Feng: ! Wei Xiao: F*ck! There was a bang as Wei Xiao closed the door again, his expression dazed: He didnt mean to act like a rogue, he really didnt mean to, he ahhhhhhh!!! Little Lunatic Wei had really gone crazy! Lu Feng remained stunned for a long time before speaking in a hoarse voice, You, take your time washing, Ill go next door. Wei Xiao could hear him, but he was unable to make sense of it for a while. He was still confused as he answered, Okay! There were no more sounds from outside. Wei Xiao looked at his naked, wet self in the mirror He almost wanted to die. He hadnt even confessed yet, but he was already lovelorn! It hadnt been easy to drop hints over the past few days, but all of his previous efforts were now wasted! At this time, Wei Xiao no longer had any spare thoughts for his parents. His brain was full of his first love that had died before it even began. Wait. Wei Xiaos short-circuited brain came back online. CCTake your time washing, Ill go next door. The captain had gone next door? Gone to wash up next door? Who lived next door Old Bai! Wei Xiao, whod just finished playing rogue, instantly became jealous. How could the captain take a bath in someone elses place. That wasnt okay. Wei Xiao didnt blow dry his hair. He pulled on a t-shit and went out. Who couldve known that he would see Lu Feng as soon as he went outside? Lu Feng was leaning against the wall. A thin bead of sweat sliding from his chin to drop on his protruding collarbone. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng froze, then turned to look at him. The two of them looked at each other and said nothing. Wei Xiao suddenly couldnt help it anymore. The words that hed suppressed in his heart couldnt be pressed down anymore. He liked his captain. He liked Close, liked Lu Feng. He couldnt wait anymore. He wanted to tell him. Even if There was a click. The door beside them opened. Bai Cai had his head down as he played on his cell phone, his eyes closed as he walked in Wei Xiaos direction. Then, he heard Wei Xiaos voiceCC Captain, I like you! Brother Cai looked up abruptly and saw this shocking scene. In the dark corridor, only the deep, dark silhouette of the man who was leaning against the wall could be seen. His figure was slender and his long legs slightly bent, so handsome that it left ones thoughts a mess. Standing in front of him was a tall and thin youth. His broad, black t-shirt emphasized his snow-white neck. The tips of his ears could be seen beneath his short, damp hair, and his crisp young voice echoed through the whole corridor. Lu Feng glanced at Bai Cai and replied in a low voice, Mm. Wei Xiaos heart leapt. Brother Cai came back to his senses. He was really scared out of his wits by the daily happenings between these two. Wei Xiao turned his head and noticed the stunned Brother CaiCC F*ck, he just wanted to confess, not come out of the closet! Who couldve known that Bai Cai would then say, Can you not f*cking repeat yourself three times a day?! Wei Xiao: ??? Bai Cai was about to shatter into pieces from fright, The whole world knows that you like the captain. Dont say it so frequently. Are you treating it like your three meals a day? Lu Feng reached out to rub his damp hair, Go and blow dry your hair. Be careful and dont catch a cold. Wei Xiao looked at him stupidly: No, this Bai Cai was numb, The captain likes you too. I like you too. Everyone likes you. Do you want to have breakfast? Wei Xiao: F*ck?! Chapter 80: Can you let me do one thing? He had plucked up the courage to confess, but no one believed him? He could ignore the fact that Brother Vegetable didnt believe him, but even the captain didnt believe him either? Bai Cai finally saw Wei Xiaos wet hair clearly and said, You didnt even blowdry your hair. What did you run out here for? Do you still want to play in the competition on the last day? Wei Xiao: Wei Xiao, who was so angry that his liver hurt, stared at him, Go and eat your food! Brother Cai was too lazy to deal with him, Be careful, or youll really delay things if you catch a cold. Lu Feng recalled how hed caught a cold when playing in the water and coaxed him to go inside, Back to the room. The captain pushed lightly against the back of his waist. Wei Xiaos waist felt numb and tingly, and he didnt dare to chatter on, slipping back inside the room. Why was he so miserable? His confession had been ignored. Hed just been told to go back to the room and blow dry his hair. To hell with blow drying! He wanted to shave his head and become a monk! Wei Xiao started to blow dry his hair messily, and his brain calmed down a bit. Steady. This wasnt something that could be rushed. Although Wei Xiao wanted to chop up some white cabbage, when he thought about it from another angle, Brother Vegetable might have actually saved his life. The consequences of an impulsive confession were disastrous. Not only might it make the captain dislike him, it could also shake the team. The new FTW hadnt even played in any proper competitions yet. How could it start to fall apart now? Things had to develop steadily, he couldnt be reckless! Wei Xiao took a deep breath and calmed his heart down. He had to continue and explore the situation tentatively, observe carefully, and try to figure out the captains sexual orientation and whether or not he was interested in him. What if the captain liked him, too? Bang! There was an explosion of fireworks in Wei Xiaoxiaos head, knocking him dizzy in advance. After drying his hair, Lu Feng noticed that his cheeks were a little red, Ill get you a bowl of ginger tea. This kids physique was really no good. Last time it was playing in the water, this time, it was standing in the wind; it was too easy for him to catch colds. Wei Xiao really disliked these kinds of spicy and astringent tasting things, and quickly said, No need, I didnt catch a cold! Lu Feng was insistent, The prize pool competition is the day after tomorrow, you Wei Xiao didnt finish for him to finish speaking. He pushed him into the bathroom, Go shower. Im just red from the hot water. I guarantee that itll be fine after you come out. Lu Feng: He was covered in sweat and really did want to take a bath. Call room service directly. Lu Feng ordered him. Wei Xiao nodded, Okay, okay, okay! After basically pushing the captain into the bathroom, Wei Xiao exhaled softly and patted his feverish face. To hell with catching a cold; he was too hot, and his brain was full of fire, the kind that could only be eased with a confession. Ahhhhh. But he couldnt confess his feelings! Oh, nobody would believe him even when he confessed. Wei Xiao splayed out on the bed like a salted fish with big dreams. Lu Feng was worried about him. He soon finished showering and came outside, wiping his hair as he looked at Wei Xiao. The flush on Wei Xiaos face had faded away, and his skin was back to its usual pale luster. Did you order ginger tea? Wei Xiao flopped up like a carp, Im okay, Im really okay. If you dont believe me you can feel my forehead. He smoothed his hair back from his face to reveal his smooth forehead. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao, who only realized what hed done after hed done it, F*ck, he wasnt trying to seduce the captain, he really wasnt! Lu Feng quickly reached out and touched his forehead, Well, if youre fine, then its okay. Wei Xiao somehow managed to answer, Its really nothing. The two of them fell quiet for a second or two. Lu Feng suddenly asked, Why did you suddenly think about saying that you like me? While taking a shower, Captain Lu had also calmed down and thought about it for a while. Wei Xiaoxiao talked a lot and dared to say anything. He often used the word like, the sound of it scratching at Lu Fengs ears from time to time. Lu Feng hadnt gotten used to it even after listening to it so many times. CCHe probably wouldnt get used to it in this lifetime. Theyd run into Bai Cai just now, and he hadnt thought much about it, but when he took a shower, he suddenly felt that this like wasnt the same as usual. Nothing had come before it, and there had been no request, but Wei Xiao had rushed out with such a sentence. It was too much like a confession. Lu Fengs heart thudded. He felt that he was overthinking it. However, he couldnt resist and still asked the question. After asking, he didnt quite dare to look at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was even less willing to look at him. What to do Develop conservatively? Stay steady? Dont go wild? F*ck! To hell with developing, to hell with steady, going wild was king! Wei Xiaos psychological development was like a tofu dregs project and disintegrated instantly under pressure, I just said it because I wanted to. Lu Feng: ! Wei Xiao was upright and bold, I like you. I thought about it, so I said it. Cant I? He looked at Lu Feng directly and didnt conceal his eagerness. Lu Feng stared at him. After looking at him for half a second, he answered in a warm voice, Mm. Wei Xiao: ??? What did that mean! Wei Xiao stressed it again, Captain, I really like you, I just want He couldnt say that he wanted to get married, and there wasnt anything else he could say. Oh, yeah, To share household registers with you! This was obvious enough, right? The captain should understand him completely. If he said another Mm, then he would propose on the spot! Gutsy Wei was going for it! Lu Feng froze briefly, then smiled and laughed, Enough. Wei Xiao held his breath: What did enough mean, it didnt seem to be going the way he thought it would. Lu Feng rubbed his messy black hair and said, Im only two years older than you. I cant be your father. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng was really scared of his heartfelt words. He got up and said, Go down and have breakfast before going back to sleep. I still have some work to do and will be going to the conference room first. It wasnt until the door closed that the petrified Wei Xiao started to thaw. Sharing a household register wasnt just for lovers, but also for fathers? I want to marry you, but youre treating me as a son? Even though Brother Xiao was a very determined person, he had shriveled up and was out of energy again. It was so difficult! Confessing was so much harder than playing games! Wei Xiao wanted to turn to Weibo for help. Q: I confessed to my secret love, but he treated me as a son. What should I do? He didnt need to send it. Wei Xiao could already see what the answers would be. Father-son love? Man, you guys are playing a big game. God Xiao, whod been a daddy to countless people in the game, had finally ended up meeting his match with a father. Wei Xiao thought hard all day long and finally came up with an absolutely effective move. It was better to do than to say. As long as he went up and kissed him, he could guarantee that the captain would understand everything. But What if the captain was straight? It wasnt a big deal if he was beaten to death with a slap, but it would be a big problem if he was driven out of FTW and lost his home! Whats more, Wei Xiao felt that the likelihood that the captain was a straight man was about 300%. How could anyone who was even a little crooked withstand his mouth full of coquettish talk? There was no need to mention his three likes a day, he seemed to have said hed married into FTW. With this and that, how could the captain bear it? Wei Xiaos love-focused brain was half dead already. CCThe captain was a straight man, he had no interest in him and treated him like a son. The 19 year old youth had not only failed to confess, hed ended up lovelorn before he was happy. This was a big blow. During the heated and lively training competition and the bitter and amusing individual thoughts, Wei Xiao ushered in the final event of the training competition, the prize pool competition. On the last night, there was no points competition. Instead, there were points screening, team elimination, and drawing lots. There were 12 teams who met the standards. The total prize pool was over 7 million. In order to increase the impact, the investor daddies added fuel to the fire and rounded it up to 10 million. After 15 days of training, the final champion could win 10 million in prize money. This winter training competition was full of the scent of gunpowder, and it could be predicted that it would also be a very hot topic during the next few years. Not only could the players train, they would also gain global exposure and win prize money. It wasnt much worse than playing in the official competition! They had to select seed teams according to their scores before lots were drawn. The first and second ranked teams, L&P and Pro, were considered first tier teams and would not draw each other as opponents in the first round. As the second tier, 3U and FTW were also separated from each other. The remaining eight teams were free to be matched up at will. This maintained a level of relative fairness. Otherwise, if strong teams drew other strong teams, it would be a pity if one of them was forced to be eliminated right at the start. Tomorrow was the BO1 (only one game) elimination match. The 12 teams were divided into six groups who fought in pairs. The winner was promoted, and the loser was eliminated. The winner would take all of the losing teams prize pool money and enter the second round. The second round would be six teams fighting for the top three. Again, the winner would be promoted, and the loser would be eliminated. In the end, the last three teams would make it to the semi-finals. Because only 12 teams met the points standard, it was inevitable that only three teams would be left after the 12 into 6, and 6 into 3 rounds. However, there was no difference between second and third place, so the competition committee directly arranged a draw for the match ups. Between the three teams, those who managed to draw opponents would fight: The loser would be eliminated, and the winner would continue to play against the last team and fight for the final championship. The entire competition schedule was crammed into one day. Although it was only BO1, it was still very tiring to play so many games all in one go. Besides, 10 million wasnt a small amount. Who wouldnt want to win such a huge bonus! Because there were no training matches, the teams all returned to their training rooms early. Chen Feng was building up their momentum prior to the competition, Our rule is, well divide the prize equally if we win. Brother Cais small eyes lit up, brighter than incandescent lamps! Ten million. Divided up between five people meant it was two million each. F*ck! Brother Cai was full of fighting spirit, Fellow brothers, lets fight! This was Little Nings first serious competition after joining the team. He was a little nervous, Lets, lets fight! Old Yue was calmer, Oh. Wei Xiao tossed a sentence at him, If you win two million, you can buy 400,000 bags of potato chips. Yue Wenle was dazed, then instantly came to attention, Lets do it! Chen Feng: In the future, it would be better to leave the matter of building up momentum to Little Lunatic Wei. One Little Lunatic Wei was more effective than 10 of him. For the sake of tomorrows game, everyone stayed sharp that night and went back to their rooms to rest early that night. Wei Xiao was very good at encouraging others, but his own heart was full of other things. The more they interacted, the more he felt that the captain was good. The more he felt that the captain was good, the more he couldnt restrain himself. Wei Xiao was able to hold on for so many days, but this was already his limit. If it wasnt out of fear that the captain wouldnt want him, he wouldve used practical actions to confess long ago. Ah Wei Xiao was scared of being kicked out from his home. He was naturally unable to hide his current appearance from Lu Feng. Lu Feng waited until everyone else had left and accompanied him in the training room, Solo? Wei Xiaos spirits instantly came back up, Okay! The two of them started a game. Once they started, Wei Xiao no longer remembered those messy things and was only focused on positioning, maneuvering, and winning. Lu Feng didnt show any mercy at all. He pressed him down onto the ground and cleaned the floor with him, not giving him any opportunity to fight back. Wei Xiao became more heated the more he was beat up, and the more heated he became, the more he was unable to control the blind jumping of his heart. In the past 17 years, hed been wholeheartedly focused on his grandmother, just wanting to take good care of her, repay her for her care, and let her enjoy happiness and live well. After his grandma left, he was aimless with no support, for two years. All the way until he met Lu Feng. He appreciated him, liked him, and had relied on him. He was even more afraid of losing him. All of Wei Xiaos fear and nervousness originated with Lu Feng. Because Lu Feng was too important to him, to the point where he was all tied up. Lu Feng saw that he wasnt in the right mindset and set down the mouse to look at him, Whats the matter? Would this little lunatic even be worried about tomorrows game? Wei Xiao turned to look at him, Captain This voice was full of grievances. Lu Feng couldnt stand it when he was like this. He asked, Is something on your mind? Wei Xiao: Lu Feng took a breath, Tell me about it? How could he say it? Say I like you, love you, want to spend a lifetime with you? Would you believe me if I said it! Oh, you believe it, but the direction you believe in is wrong! Wei Xiao leaned against the chair and sighed heavily, Captain When he called him like this, it made Lu Fengs heart itch, and his voice became increasingly warm, Say it. It was just two words, but it seemed that he was promising him whatever he wanted. Ahhhh, why was the captain so good?! So good that he just wanted to do some indecent things to him. Wei Xiao wasnt the type to be tangled up over things. He might be afraid, but he would never back down. His intentions were already here, and he couldnt just hide it. Dying early and dying later both involved dying. He didnt want to be a shrinking turtle! The brave and resourceful Wei Xiaoxiao turned his head and fixed his gaze on Lu Feng. Lu Feng was also looking at him. Wei Xiao took a deep breath and said seriously, Tomorrows championship prize pool is 10 million. Lu Feng was a little surprised. Was Wei Xiao really worried about tomorrows game? Yes. Wei Xiao stared at him, If FTW wins, Ill get two million. It was funny. They went back and forth, and it was always this number. Lu Feng nodded, Thats right. Wei Xiao spoke out the idea that was in his heart, I dont want this two million. Lu Feng was caught by surprise. Wei Xiao continued, I dont want this two million, but can you let me do one thing? Lu Feng immediately replied, The bonus is yours Wei Xiao spoke stubbornly, No. I wont take this two million, but in return, please dont get angry, dont drive me away, and it would be best if you dont hate me. This unruly youth lowered his tone as he spoke, looking somewhat pitiful. Lu Feng frowned briefly, What do you want to do? Wei Xiao naturally wouldnt say it now. He stood up and asked, Can you promise me? Lu Feng looked up at him, his eyes dark and deep, You want to leave FTW? Wei Xiao immediately replied, How could that be? Lu Fengs expression didnt change as he stared straight at him. Wei Xiaos heart was seizing from his gaze. He spoke in a small voice, I already said that you cant drive me out when the time comes. How could I leave FTW? Lu Fengs eyebrows relaxed. He realized that hed missed out on some of his words. What did Wei Xiao want to do? Something that he would be angry about. What was it? Lu Feng could only think that he wanted to leave FTW. Other than this, what else could make him angry? Wei Xiao could see that the captain had misunderstood. He quickly softened his voice, As long as you dont dislike me and dont drive me away, Ill never leave FTW. Lu Feng frowned again, How could I dislike you. Wei Xiaos heart was sweet, On the chance that I do something that makes you hate me. Lu Feng: . He couldnt say it. The fact that he wouldnt hate Wei Xiao no matter what he did was something he couldnt tell him. Wei Xiao had made up his mind, In short, I dont want this two million yuan, and in return, you let me do this one thing! Afraid that Lu Feng would overthink it, he put limits on it, Dont worry, its not against the law, and the only risk is that you may get very angry. Lu Feng was really curious, What exactly are you going to do? Wei Xiaos line of sight darted swiftly over his lips. His heart felt really hot, I cant say it now. Lu Fengs thin lips shifted slightly. Captain. Wei Xiao simply switched to trickery, Promise me, okay! Lu Feng: Alright. Wei Xiao relaxed, then looked at him, You definitely cant get angry when the time comes. Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao: Well, you can get angry, but you cant drive me away. Lu Feng: Impossible. This heart of Wei Xiaos was really going through ups and downs, Promise? Lu Feng: Promise. Although he didnt know what Wei Xiao wanted to do, Lu Feng would let him do it, and he would also give him the full bonus. Chapter 81: If youre lonely, you can go find someone else. Lu Feng had something to do in the evening, so Wei Xiao was in the room by himself. He finished washing up early, ran to bed, covered himself with the quilt, and closed his eyes to sleep. One solo, two solo, three solo To hell with sleeping! He couldnt sleep! Wei Xiao opened his eyes. It was only a little after ten oclock, so how could he fall asleep. Of course, this was also somewhat related to the fact that he had something on his mind. When he thought about his plan, Wei Xiao couldnt help but pat at his own face. Calm down, calm down. Win the game first, and then think about it some more. Buthow did one kiss? The 19 year old virgin knew nothing about kissing. Thats right, Wei Xiao had given up the two million bonus and fought with his life on the line for the sake of a little kiss. He wanted to kiss the captain, so that the captain would understand his intentions thoroughly. This kind of like, not the other type of like. Sharing a household register didnt only mean they would have to be father and son. They could also be fellow brothers, oh, wait lovers! Wei Xiao took a deep breath and took out his cell phone to search up on kissing. Hed only just taken a peek at the results when he quickly clicked out the page. This was no good His grandma had said before, look at nothing that is not consistent with propriety! Forget it. It was just a peck. Just because he hadnt eaten pork before, it didnt mean hed never seen pigs run! Wei Xiaos brain filled in the blanks, and his imagination almost heated himself up so much he turned into a spicy crawfish. It was too hot in the room, and he really couldnt stay here anymore. He went outside for some air. Due to Coach Chen Fengs strict orders, the other three people in FTW were all obediently hiding in their rooms and sleeping. Wei Xiao didnt dare to go look for Bai Cai. He couldnt tell Brother Cai about this. Based on Brother Cais small guts, he would be scared out of his mind. He was still hoping that Brother Cai would play well in the competition and help him win! He couldnt tell anyone, but these affairs of the heart bounced around in his thoughts. Wei Xiao could only go down to the seaside and stand in the wind. The island at night was quite different from how it was during the day. The blue sea was dark, and the silvery-white sand was faded, leaving only the sound of the roaring waves. Wei Xiao was wearing his team uniform and didnt feel cold, but his heart calmed down significantly. He casually found a rock and sat down, breathing in the salty scent of the sea breeze. Quiet? Wei Xiao was a little startled. He turned his head and discovered that a young man had been seated beside him for a while. A sea blue team uniform, black hair blown into chaos by the wind, single eyelids, a tear mole, and a haughty attitude. Wei Xiao was surprised, God Kim? The person sitting here getting blown at by the sea breeze was Pros Kim Sung-hyun, who nodded slightly in response. Wei Xiao saw that there was a spark at his fingertips, it was a half burned cigarette. Kim Sung-hyun noticed his line of sight, Want one? Wei Xiao shook his head, I dont smoke. Kim Sung-hyuns lips curved, Good child. This tone of voice was very similar to Old Dog Yuan. He was worthy of having been taught by Yuan Ze. Wei Xiaos goosebumps popped right out, Bandit Yuan, disperse! Kim Sung-hyun was stunned, then realized, F*ck, he used to always say that to me. Wei Xiao guessed it, Is he much older than you? Yuan Zes age was a mystery. He spoke like an old beast, yet when he quieted down he seemed to be only 20. His age seemed to depend on whether or not he was acting human or not. Kim Sung-hyun: Five days older than me. Wei Xiao was startled, Then how does he have the face to say that to you? He understood it as soon as he spoke. Hed bullied Kim Sung-hyun by taking advantage of the fact that he didnt know Chinese. It was unknown how long Kim Sung-hyun had been sitting there for, but it seemed that he still wanted to chat, When I just entered FTW, I couldnt speak a single word of Chinese and had to rely on him to translate for me. Wei Xiao was really impressed when it came to this point, Captain Yuan really is proficient in eight languages? Kim Sung-hyun: Maybe not eight languages, but five or six for sure. Wei Xiao was amazed, He how did he do it? Kim Sung-hyun was two years older than Close, and hed joined FTW one year ahead of Close when he was only 18 or 19. Yuan Ze was only 5 days older than he was, making them the same age. How had the 18 year old Old Dog Yuan mastered five or six languages! Kim Sung-hyun: Dont judge him based on how he looks just Chinese. Hes actually of mixed blood. This was really the first time hed heard of it. Wei Xiao asked, He cant be a mixed blood from five or six countries, right? Kim Sung-hyun: Almost Wei Xiao was dazed for a second. Yuan Zes father was a pure Chinese businessman, but his wife was a Korean with mixed blood. With this mix, Yuan Ze really was a child with mixed blood from five or six countries. Yuan Zes grandmother was Japanese and Korean, and his grandfather was a mixture of English and French, so he was proficient in Japanese, Korean, English, French, and Chinese. His best language was Korean, because Yuan Ze had lived in Korea as a child. This was too amazing. Wei Xiao said in surprise, Captain Yuans life background is something that even novels dont dare to write about. Kim Sung-hyun laughed, How does that count? His parents later divorced and formed new families. He followed his mother and stayed in Korea until he was 10, then went to the United States until he was 13. He returned to China with his father when he was 14, and later This seemed to involve personal privacy. Kim Sung-hyun leaned in and continued, He joined FTW in the same year as me. I wasnt familiar with the surroundings or the language, so I could only talk to him. One could imagine this scene. The 18 year old Kim Sung-hyun had come to a China that was strange to him and met Yuan Ze, who could speak Korean. It would be weird if they didnt become close. Wei Xiao paused for a moment, then said, Then, the relationship between the two of you must be really good. Although they were mutually hostile on a daily basis, it was the kind that could only happen if they had deep feelings for each other. If they were really unfamiliar, they would only nod and greet each other when they met. Kim Sung-hyun stared at the cigarette between his fingers, Right. He taught me this, too. Although hed lit a cigarette, he hadnt smoked from it at all. He simply let it burn down on its own. Wei Xiao disparaged him, Cant he teach anything good? Grandma had said it before, smoking was harmful to ones health! Kim Sung-hyun was amused, Close refused to learn. Once he heard the name Close, Wei Xiaos eyes brightened instantly, He also tried to influence my captain? Kim Sung-hyun: Of course. Your captain was very quiet when he first joined the team. He suspected that he had social phobia, and flipped through a good many psychology books. Wei Xiao thought about it for a while and couldnt quite imagine it, How could my captain have social phobia! Everything about Close was good. Quiet couldnt tolerate anybody saying anything negative about him. Kim Sung-hyun said to him, Youve never seen the 17 year old Little Close. Wei Xiao was instantly sour with jealousy, but there was nothing he could do. It was true that he hadnt seen him then. When the captain was 17 years old, hed only been 15. Although hed been playing Glory at the time, hed only been accompanying his classmates and abusing newbies. He hadnt experienced the fun of the competition at all. Can you tell me about it? Wei Xiao pressed down the sour lemon in his heart and asked Kim Sung-hyun curiously. Kim Sung-hyun stubbed out the cigarette and said, At the time, your captain was a little shorter than me, he was handsome, but his aura was too cold, and he didnt allow anyone to get close. I didnt say more than five sentences to him in total over the first half a month. Even when we were playing training games, he wouldnt say a word. Wei Xiao was surprised, Was it okay for him not to communicate while playing the jungler position? Back then, the commander of the Team of Gods, FTW, was the support position player Yan Jiang. Although Close wasnt the commander, the jungler was supposed to lead the rhythm of the game and needed to maintain communication with his teammates. Kim Sung-hyun sighed, Thats why Ah-Ze, oh, I mean, Old Shit, suspected that he had social phobia. Other than the simplest monosyllabic sounds, the 17 year old cold teenager didnt say a single word. He was silent, quiet, and pushed people thousands of miles away. Yuan Ze might be a dog, but he was a warm-hearted one. He was willing to help Kim Sung-hyun adapt to Chinese life, and he also wanted to lead Little Close out of his psychological barriers. He stayed up late reading several psychology books and tried to get close to Lu Feng. After trying out several rounds of theoretical knowledge, Lu Feng finally spoke and asked him, Whats the matter? Yuan Ze: Lu Feng: I dont like talking to people. If youre lonely, you can go find someone else. Yuan Ze: To hell with the f*cking social phobia, this kid was just filled with pure arrogance! Chapter 82.1: If you want to be gay together, can you stay away from my door? Wei Xiao was amused. Kim Sung-hyun also started laughing, He smashed into a wall, but he didnt give up. He told me that Little Close was just putting on a strong front, and he must actually be secretly shedding tears at night Wei Xiao didnt believe it at all, but his curiosity had been completely piqued, And then? And then? Then, at midnight, Yuan Ze took Kim Sung-hyun with him and squatted outside Closes bedroom door for half an hour. Proud Flower Kim had been very naive and innocent back then, Is he crying? Yuan Zes legs were numb from crouching, Maybe theyre silent tears? Looking at how that boy puts up a strong front, he probably doesnt even know how to cry. Kim Sung-hyun was worried, Then, what should we do? Elder brother, should we go in? Yuan Ze corrected him, Dont use the title elder brother in China. Others will think that were gay! Kim Sung-hyun changed his words, Ah-Ze! Yuan Ze nodded, Call me teacher! Kim Sung-hyun paused, Ah-Ze! Yuan Ze: . Fine, it was a little difficult for him to pronounce teacher. Their voices werent low. FTWs base back then hadnt been like the luxury house it was now, and the sound insulation was mediocre. Close, who was in the room, had basically heard most of it. He opened the door, giving Kim Sung-hyun and Yuan Ze a scare. Kim Sung-hyun was quite thin-skinned and was unable to speak for a long time. Old Dog Yuan was thick-skinned and didnt feel embarrassed at all, Cough, you havent slept yet? After that, he stared at Close, trying to see if there were traces of tears on his handsome face. However, other than the chips of ice in his eyes, he got nothing else. Close: I can cry, but theres no need. Kim Sung-hyun & Yuan Ze: ! He heard them! Close continued, If you want to be gay together, can you stay away from my door? Little Kim & Old Yuan: .. To hell with this little pitiful guy, this was clearly a sullen, black-bellied man! When he heard this, Wei Xiao laughed so hard he was rocking back and forth. His brain recreated the scene completely. Sure enough, the great demon king was still a great demon king when he was young. It was amazing! There was a smile in Kim Sung-hyuns eyes when he thought of these past events, and his tone became lighter and lighter. He then shared some fragmented anecdotes. Wei Xiao was always concerned about one point, Why were you all so worried about the captain? He could tell from the literal and implied meaning of the words that Yuan Ze had been very worried about Close, whod just entered the team. Was it because he didnt like to talk? Was it because he wasnt sociable? Or was it because Close was too young, and they wanted to take care of him? Wei Xiao didnt think that was it. The 19 year old Captain Yuan and God Kim were half grown boys. How would they be so thoughtful? He asked this, and Kim Sung-hyun was stunned for a moment. This new teammate of Closes looked naughty and wild and disobedient, but in his heart, he really cared about his captain. Hed even caught the details inside these jokes. Kim Sung-hyun spoke lightly, Youve never seen the 17 year old Close. Hed said these words earlier, but the tone now was totally different. After listening to it again, Wei Xiao still felt sour in his heart, but it was no longer a jealous sourness. It was a feeling of heartache for the 17 year old Close. The Close from back then seemed to have been abandoned by everyone. He didnt seem to care about anything around him. Yuan Ze spoke about social phobia, but in fact, he was worried about more than just that. A youth who was so disconnected and cold, it wouldnt be surprising if he chose to jump down from the top of a building in the next second. It wasnt just social phobia. Yuan Ze had flipped through psychology books out of fear that this child wouldnt be able to work through it. Kim Sung-hyuns words were very obscure, but Wei Xiao could still feel the heavy, depressing pain that pressed down on his insides. Back then, we all suspected that his family well Kim Sung-hyun said. However, it became much better later on. Close still didnt like to talk and was an icy cold person, but for better or worse, he could communicate. Even if it was all monosyllables. Wei Xiao was stunned as he listened. Lu Fengs monosyllables was a joke that was often used as fans for memes. The great demon kings mm judgement, Closes cold mm, and the gentle mm that was worth dying to hear. Wei Xiao had no way to imagine the 17 year old Close who tried using monosyllables to establish communication channels with other people. The tingling, numbing pain spread through all his nerves, and his cell phone vibrated slightly. Wei Xiao didnt know what the captain had experienced before he turned 17, but hed found a new home in FTW, found a new family, and gradually began to accept others. It was a pity that after one short year of brilliance, FTW broke up. What had the Close who remained standing in the ruins been thinking? Ding. The clear sound of a lighter pulled Wei Xiao back to the present. Kim Sung-hyun lit another cigarette and let the tiny spark burn between his fingers. Us big brothers of the past really owe him. Kim Sung-hyun looked at Wei Xiao, In the future, you Wei Xiao yelled loudly, Ill absolutely never leave him. Ill always accompany him! For a lifetime! Kim Sung-hyun smiled and said, Youre not his wife, so how can you accompany him all the time. Wei Xiao: I After that, Kim Sung-hyun cleared his throat. He realized that the word wife wasnt appropriate; after all, he knew Closes sexual orientation. Wei Xiao also stopped suddenly. He couldnt just say that he wanted to be the captains wif husband, right! Eh Wei Xiao broke out in goosebumps from his own thoughts. After listening to the captains past for a while, Wei Xiao switched to being concerned about Kim Sung-hyun, God Kim, what are you doing out here on your own? Are you scared about tomorrows competition? Kim Sung-hyun slanted a glance at him, Scared of what? Wei Xiao stabbed back, Scared that youll lose to us. Kim Sung-hyun made a sound of disbelief. Wei Xiao stressed, You lost to us once not very long ago. Kim Sung-hyun raised his chin slightly, and the tear mole was particularly obvious, If you guys were unable to win against me when I played so badly, would you really deserve to be in FTW? These words Wei Xiao loved to hear them. He chuckled, Ill be waiting for you to play well tomorrow! Kim Sung-hyun really admired his passion, Ill definitely satisfy you. Wei Xiao thought of his love confession plan and said, I definitely wont show any mercy. Kim Sung-hyun waved his hand, Get lost and go back to sleep He hadnt finished speaking when Wei Xiaos cell phone rang. Wei Xiaos eyebrows showed his happiness as soon as he looked at it, Its my captain. Kim Sung-hyun: Was this worth showing off? It wasnt like he was the only one with a captain! Wei Xiao answered the phone, Captain~ Kim Sung-hyuns ears trembled. He was very puzzled about how Close could bear it as a gay man. He didnt know what was said on the other side of the phone, but Wei Xiao bounced up and said, God Kim, Im going back. Bye bye. Kim Sung-hyun waved at him. Wei Xiao ran back swiftly, wishing he could teleport and arrive back at the captains side in two seconds. Kim Sung-hyun saw his attitude, and the smile on the corners of his lips slowly faded away. When he looked at the present Wei Xiao, Kim Sung-hyun was always reminded of the past. Hed entered Glory at the age of 17, his heart full of ambition, chasing after Li Heran just like the Wei Xiao who was now chasing after Lu Feng. At the time, Li Heran had been the number one ADC in South Korea, and he was his teammate. At the time, Li Heran was the shining star whod won the National MVP, and he was the foil beside him. The light shone brightly on Li Heran, while he stood behind the light. When people mentioned Li Heran, they couldnt recall Kim Sung-hyun. Only when Kim Sung-hyun was mentioned would they think of the Twin Stars. At the time, Kim Sung-hyun was very unwilling to accept this. He wanted to catch up to Li Heran, wanting to stand side by side with him. Later on He went to FTW and won the world championship. He defeated Li Heran. When he shook hands with him, Li Heran said to him, Wonderful. Kim Sung-hyun had held onto him tightly, his eyes red, Did I win? Li Heran: Yes. But he hadnt won! Hed lost big time! Hed hated Li Heran when he was sold to FTW. When he learned the truth of the matter, he just wanted to get him back. But He worked so hard and so bitterly to go home, only to see a depressed Li Heran who was full of old injuries. The Li Heran whod been better at him at everything as they grew up together, that hed only been able look at his back as he followed behind him, was now downtrodden like a homeless dog. Kim Sung-hyun had scolded him, Why did you trick me into going to FTW! Li Heran had been silent. Kim Sung-hyuns voice trembled, Do you know that when I was alone in China, there was, there was Li Heran whispered, Sung-hyun, youre different now. Kim Sung-hyun, whod gone to China, had won the world championships, entered the Temple of Glory and become the number one marksman in the Korean competition zone. Li Heran, whod stayed at home, had eventually been sucked dry by the club and fallen ill. Kim Sung-hyun reached out and grabbed him by the collar, I dont f*cking want your charity! Li Heran: Its the results of your efforts. Kim Sung-hyun gritted his teeth, You I Damn it, youve been lying to me the whole time! Li Heran bowed his head, Im sorry. Kim Sung-hyun didnt want his apology. He wanted him to stand up, he wanted him to be just like before, always walking in front of him, always better than him, always more outstanding than him! Li Heran shouldnt be like this. Even more, he shouldnt have become like this because of him. It had taken Kim Sung-hyun two years to build up the current Pro, two years to return to the global finals, and two years to win the doubles championship with Li Heran. When they stood on the blinding stage, fans changed Kim Sung-hyuns name. Nobody remembered the former number one marksman Li Heran, nobody remembered that the silent man who stood behind Kim Sung-hyun had once been so brilliant and dazzling. Kim Sung-hyun was not reconciled, and his heart was not willing. He wanted the championship, wanted the real championship. He wanted to tell Li HeranCC Hed never forgotten the promise theyd made when they were young. Theyd win the championship together, stand on the stage of the worlds number one together, and become the strongest players that the world recognized together! He hadnt forgotten, but did Li Heran still remember? Kim Sung-hyun lit up a whole box of cigarettes, but none of them touched his lips. Yuan Ze told him, light a cigarette if you arent happy. Itll burn away your bad mood. Kim Sung-hyun tossed the cigarette butts into the garbage can, then got up to go back to the house. He was going to win tomorrows competition. He didnt know how to get back the old Li Heran. The only thing he could do was win. Keep winning, continue winning, all the way until they fulfilled their promise. After going back upstairs, Wei Xiao went into the room just in time to see the captain coming out of the bathroom. Wei Xiaoxiao: ! Lu Feng had a towel tied around his waist. His upper body was still stained with water, and his cold, pale skin looked like it was coated in a layer of mist under the spotlights above his head. Wei Xiao looked at him straight on, and his heart pounded thump-thump-thump. It was over! He wasnt human! Before, hed been greedy for the captains skills, and now he wasnt even letting go of the person himself! Lu Fengs heart heated up under his gaze. He pulled on the bathrobe and asked, Whered you go? Wei Xiao returned to his senses, resisting the impulse to do bad things, I couldnt sleep, so I went downstairs for a walk. Lu Feng didnt think too much about it. This hour really wasnt Wei Xiaos sleeping time, Theres a game tomorrow. Sleep earlier. Wei Xiao nodded, Yes! Sleep earlier, sleep well, keep up his energy levels, win 10 million tomorrow, then ask the captain Oh, he didnt deserve to propose yet, but wanting a kiss was okay! xiin: i read the comments from the last chapter~ so are you guys shipping Yuan x Kim or Kim x Li now? Chapter 83.1: Close deserved all the glory in the world. The BP for both sides ended and the line-up was determined. FTW: Blood warrior, power thief, fire mage, giant shaman, gold hunter. OD: Flying warrior, immortal thief, ice mage, earth priest, gunslinger. Obviously, FTW had directly taken the same line-up that OD had used last time when they fought. Every talent was exactly the same; it was a perfect recreation. In comparison, ODs side hadnt been able to do the same. Their top-lane, mid-lane and jungler heroes were the same ones FTW had used last time, but their marksman and support talents had been changed. Back then, Bai Cais medicine warlock had been strong enough to turn the tables with a dazzling performance. This time, ODs support player didnt dare to take the medicine warlock. It wasnt a support talent that just anyone could play, and it was even less likely that just anyone could win with it. ODs line-up this time had taken FTWs line-up advantages from last time and made up for their shortcomings. The line-up was stronger than the previous FTW line-up. There was a lot of sighing in the live broadcast studio: OD really cant do it. FTWs already attacking them so directly. What the hell are they scared for. Theyve been using the talent restraint excuse to wash themselves white for half a month, and FTW has now given them a chance. Why dont they hurry up and redo it completely? Wash, keep washing. Use a line-up thats even stronger than FTWs line-up last time. Itll be fun to watch when they lose. Theres really a problem with this water army that OD purchased. Werent they worried that they might encounter FTW in the prize pool competition? Theyre probably anxious. Zhou Xingfeis now infamous and eager to wash himself white. The prize pool competition isnt a round robin system. After a round of games, maybe Zhou Xingfei thought that FTW would have been eliminated. Yeah, sitting around and waiting for OD to eliminate FTW. The irony in the previous message is great. The audience werent fools. Anyone who used their brains a little could understand what Zhou Xingfei was trying to do. Over ten days ago, hed been hammered over the head by FTW until he was bleeding, and the most humiliating thing was the apologyCCit was solid proof that hed harmed Bai Cai before, and he couldnt clean up his reputation. In order to save face, he drew the focus of the conversation to the game and said that hed lost wrongly and unfairly due to ODs weak line-up. Zhou Xingfei felt that the next game between OD and FTW would be during the global competition. By then, the wave of interest would be over, and OD, who wouldve gone through an entire season in Europe, would absolutely be able to surpass FTW. In e-sports, being a loser was the greatest sin. As long as he won, he would have the absolute right to speak! However FTW grew faster than hed expected, easily winning the 12 into 6 round in the prize pool competition, and then encountering OD in the 6 into 3 round. Watching FTW choose talents, Zhou Xingfeis teammates said, Since FTW is using our line-up, well take theirs! Zhou Xingfei was still cowering. He didnt want to lose; he absolutely didnt want to lose a second time. So, he said, Lets not take them seriously. Our goal is the 10 million. These words were spoken with inspiring righteousness, and their coach agreed, Dont be impulsive. Since they dont want to win, we wont be polite, and we will win the game! Zhou Xingfei gritted his teeth, Yes! Was FTW motivated? Didnt FTW want the 10 million? Wei Xiao wanted it so much he was about to go crazy! Hed never taken money so seriously in his life! At the start of the game, the power thief lay in ambush in the middle of the map. Commentator A: Is FTW taking First Blood at the start of the game? ODs ice mage is really weak in the early stages. If the power thief is able to catch him, the fire mages high explosive damage will likely kill him. Quiet hasnt played much with the power thief, right? Playing it really relies on ones feel for the hero. Especially when it comes to the first skills ground stab. Predicting the enemys position is very important. It landed! On the big screen, the power thief crouching in the grass threw out a ground stab just as the ice mage came out to clear the lane soldiers. This skill was the power thiefs core skill. Once an enemy was stabbed, vines would be generated beneath their feet. The bewitched hero would lose control and head towards the power thief. Wei Xiao: Little Ning! Ning Zhehan had long been waiting for this opportunity, Got it! The fire mage used its first skill, shooting out nine fireballs in three lines. Bang, bang, bang! At least six of the fireballs hit the ice mage! Fireball damage would stack. The more fireballs hit, the more damage they would cause. The frail and weak ice mages little body instantly lost all its health. Wei Xiao stabbed his blade in at just the right time, Take the kill. Ning Zhehan didnt bother being polite and used a basic attack to take away the ice mages life. FTW was off to a great start! And it was the relatively weak mid-lane mage whod taken First Blood! The scrolling comments were filled up with a large stretch of 6666. Quiet is pretty good. The damage dealt by that last knife attack was controlled well. I thought he would take First Blood. I thought this brat would try to snatch up farm even with a power thief. At the end, the fire mage was bouncing and jumping as it took a kill with a basic attack. Inexplicably sweet. Yingyingying, I also want a power thief like that who gives me kills. FTWs entire team is so easy to ship, I can do Wei-Ning, too! In the team chat, Wei Xiao laughed briefly, Captain, do you want to take a pentakill. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao thought about the first time hed played as a proper accompanying player. The captain had used the ID LU and played a fire mage, bouncing and jumping around the map, acting well-behaved and cute, putting on a wonderful performance as a newbie. At the time, Wei Xiao had sent him a pentakill, then said some very clich words of romance. This time, Wei Xiao looked at Ning Zhehans fire mage and thought of the bosss fire mage. He was done for. They were playing in a competition, but his heart had already begun to jump around. Lu Feng didnt have the same rich imagination as he did and only thought that he wanted to play around again. The more Wei Xiao thought about it, the more exciting he felt it was, In the entire winter training competition, nobody else has taken a pentakill, right? Brother Cai: Nope. During the 15 days of winter training, there were three points competition games every night, but because of the change in rules, powerful teams could only play four times. After FTW used up their chances, L&P and Pro also lost the opportunity to play. In the professional arena, it wasnt that easy to take a pentakill. No matter how bad the players abilities were, they were still all professional players. Even in a situation where one side overwhelmed the other side, it wasnt easy to get a pentakill. Across the entire prize pool competition, nobody had ever won a pentakill. Wei Xiao wanted to give one to Lu Feng. Close deserved all the glory in the world. Wei Xiao stared at the screen, and his side profile was unprecedentedly serious. What did the FTW team say? Why is Quiet so serious? Ahhhh, I love Wei Xiaos face, hes so sweet it melts my heart when he smiles, but when hes not smiling, its so explosively alpha. How could there be a little brother like this who can be both sweet and salty. Im a little flustered. Our FTW has an advantage, right? Why is he so serious? It cant really be considered an advantage. Although they managed to get a First Blood from the mid-lane, they tossed away a small portion of their jungle zone. ODs still stable. Unfortunately, the winter competition team chats hadnt been released to the public, and the audience didnt know what was going on in FTWs team chat. After the training camp was completely over and the special cuts edition was released, Quiet would probably gain a few new titles. Something like Glorys trash talk king, Glorys flirting god, Glorys wildest jungler king, and other such titles would be strung up on the hot search. The power thief was a completely different system and playstyle from the shadow thief, hidden thief, and immortal thief. It was to the point where there were teams who tried to find different ways to play, using the power thief in the support position. This was enough to explain the power thiefs attributes. It was tanky, its DPS was a little worse than others, but it had strong functionality. The power thief had an advantage over the other thief talents, which was that it didnt require a lot of farm. The bonus that equipment gave the power thief was far less than that of its compatriots. A piece of completed gear could make an immortal thief change from being a younger brother to a father, but for a power thief, it would only lift it up from being a younger brother to the eldest brother. The difference wasnt very significant, and at the same time, it wouldnt drag its team members down without the equipment. So, most power thief players would let other players in the team take the farmed resources. For example, Pro. If Park Guizhi took the power thief, then the resources of the entire jungle zone were basically all given to Kim Sung-hyun. Feeding ones own core DPS player until they were full and satisfied would mean that the power thief had already demonstrated huge value. Wei Xiaos character was that of a typical c-position. He dared to charge in, dared to fight, dared to lead the rhythm of the game. At the same time, his skills passed the standard, he made very few mistakes, and could afford to show off. He was hot blooded and passionate, but also reliable and able to bear pressure. Looking through the entirety of Glory, the players who had this kind of temperament all supported the team on their shoulders and stood very high up. However, this type of player also had one fatal flaw, which was, conceit. They were used to taking themselves as the core, used to fighting for farm, and used to having all their teammates support them. So, they couldnt use this kind of functional talent spec hero. How Wei Xiao would turn out in the future was difficult to predict, but at the very least, his style right now hadnt yet been set in stone. His power thief was very humble. Chapter 83.2: Suddenly, Lu Feng seemed to realize something. In the mid-lane, he helped Ning Zhehan suppress their opponent, then he went down to the bottom lane to help Yue Wenle kill the other sides marksman. Bai Cai stayed in the bottom lane and protected Yue Wenle constantly. Wei Xiao became another support player in the team, providing vision in the jungle, reporting the enemys position, and catching people like crazy. The rhythm of this series of moves was too fierce, and OD found it a little difficult to catch their breath. Zhou Xingfei stared fixedly at the screen and said, Dont panic. His bottom jungle zone is mine. Our resources are stable! The disadvantage of Wei Xiao catching people everywhere was that he couldnt control his own jungle. Zhou Xingfei stared at the economic panel, watching as his own immortal thief continuously accumulated wealth, gradually surpassing the power thief. Two thousand. As long as he could have 2000 more farm than the power thief, he would be able to crush this arrogant and domineering Quiet! Hed wait until he had three full pieces of equipment. The immortal thief who had explosive damage gear would definitely be able to call up the storm and stir up the winds. Zhou Xingfei didnt want to lose. Hed already lost once, and if he lost again this time He absolutely couldnt lose! This was a newcomer king whod never been on the battlefield. Why was he better than him! Zhou Xingfei hated Wei Xiao. It wasnt just because of the trap from last time, but also due to old resentments from nearly two years ago. When he first met Bai Cai, Bai Cai had said to him, Last years newcomer king is much stronger than you are. At the time, Zhou Xingfei had cursed Wei Xiao in his heart, but in order to flatter Bai Cai, he could only desperately try to endure and go against his heart to coax Bai Cai, I will try hard, Ill become just as strong as he is! What was so strong about him? He was a piece of trash whod fled, a piece of trash who didnt even dare to face the competition arena! How could he lose to such a guy?! How could he lose to a guy that the idiot Bai Cai valued so much?! Finally, Zhou Xingfei accumulated enough farm, enough to kill Wei Xiao. He stopped clearing out jungle monsters and snatching lane soldiers like crazy, and started to lie in ambush in a place where the power thief had to walk past. He had 2000 more farm than Wei Xiao. He had one more piece of completed equipment than Wei Xiao did. He had set up the ambush ahead of time. He would definitely be able to kill him! The audience in the scrolling comments were all caught up in the momentCC Its over, its over, the dog Zhou Xingfei wants to ambush my God Q. The power thiefs farm is over 1000 gold less than the immortal thiefs. He cant win! In this game, Wei Xiao was really amazing. He gave all the resources to his teammates, and Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle have almost been raised up into fat piggies by him. So, hes going to be hammered into the ground by Zhou Xingfei. Shit, I dont want to see it. Aggrieved. Trash Zhou Xingfei, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. If hes got the skills, go to the top lane and mess with my great demon king, hey. Calm down, previous poster. Zhou Xingfeis just bad, not stupid. The great demon king is number one in resources, with 2000 more gold than the immortal thief. Mess with him? Zhou Xingfei might as well go directly to the Pacific Ocean and feed the fish. Reasonably speaking, I think that Zhou Xingfei has already lost his mind. Hes been staring at Wei Xiao the whole time, but OD is clearly already done for in this game All three lanes had collapsed. Could a single Zhou Xingfei turn the tables? So what if he killed Wei Xiao? Wouldnt he just end up surrounded and beaten to death in return? Whats more, would he even be able to kill Wei Xiao? Wei Xiao entered the area. After waiting for so long, Zhou Xingfeis fingers were trembling slightly. He used a movement skill and arrived right in front of Wei Xiao, and his second movement skill knocked the power thief dizzy. The combo attack that hed suppressed for so long exploded out, instantly sending the power thief into critical health. The camera cut to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiaos expression wasnt even the slightest bit flustered. His fingers flew over the keyboard as he skillfully manipulated the hero to avoid taking damage. He moved to the side to fight back, and even though his health bar had dropped to a red sliver, he was still calmly keeping himself alive. This face of his was too photogenic. Adding on his expression and attitude, the audiences goodwill bar filled up instantly. Well done, young man! On the screen, the power thief was still left with only a sliver of health, but the immortal thief had also lost more than half of its health. Reasonably speaking, as long as the immortal thiefs blade swept across lightly, the power thief would be done for. Who couldve known that at this very critical time, the power thief would throw out a ground stab. The commentator reacted immediately, Hes going to counter kill! The immortal thief has already used up all its skills. He obviously underestimates the power thiefs tankiness and didnt think that he would fail to kill him after using up an entire set of skills. The immortal thiefs sword didnt land, and hes been caught by the ground stab! The power thief who now had an ultimate move could strengthen its ground stab. The immortal thief lost control completely, the hero moving towards the power thief without any resistance. The audience in the scrolling comments also had their hearts in their throats, Thats not good, once the immortal thief gets close, he can simply stab the power thief to death with a light poke. F*ck, the great demon king clicked teleport! ODs top-laner is coming over, too! Things are exciting now. FTW and OD have all gathered together! Even if the immortal thief kills the power thief, hell definitely die. Not only that, this is going to be a huge group war! Almost in the blink of an eye, the immortal thief came close to the power thief, its loss of control still in effect. However, Zhou Xingfei wasnt panicked, because based on his current health volume and the power thiefs DPS ability, it was impossible for him not to be able to kill him. He could kill Wei Xiao, he could definitely do it. There was a gold flash, and Close dropped down from the sky. Zhou Xingfeis heart stuttered, but he said in the team chat, Im definitely dead, but I can still take Wei Xiao down, and Closes health wont be healthy, either. We can fight this group battle! From a normal point of view, there was nothing wrong with his judgement. Unfortunately, his opponents werent very normal. The immortal thief regained control and swept out with its sword. The power thief who was at critical health fell to the ground. Closes scarlet blade stabbed out, and the immortal thief was killed. At the same time, the power thief stood back up again. The commentators could see the situation much clearer than the audience could, Resurrection armor! One second before the immortal thiefs blade swept over, the power thief sold its black blade and forcibly obtained the resurrection armor. This loss is too big. He cant deal DPS even if he stands back up again. Could it be FTW wants to end the game! At first, the OD team members whod come over to provide support werent panicked. Although theyd been killed many times in the early stages, their farm hadnt dropped too far behind. Zhou Xingfeis ambush on Wei Xiao had not only killed the power thief, but also forced out the blood warriors ultimate move. From this perspective, OD had the advantage. After winning the group fight, OD could turn their disadvantage into victory. But The power thief wasnt dead. He had even sold his core DPS equipment and bought the resurrection armor ahead of time. This was very crazy, it was too crazy. It had to be known that one would lose half their money if they sold a piece of completed equipment during the game. For example, the power thief had used 2000 gold to buy the black blade, and sold it for only 1000. His farm was already very low. Without DPS, and having wasted 1000 gold, what was the point in standing back up again? What was the point of a power thief in straw sandals using resurrection armor at all? Wei Xiao used practical actions to tell everyoneCCit was of great use. He used a single ground stab and gathered together three of ODs players. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenles DPS smashed down together. The three people from OD had confused expressions on their faces. Wei Xiao spoke excitedly, Captain, I want to see you take a pentakill! Lu Feng: Alright. The blood warrior bathed in blood. Surrounded by a bloody mist, the scarlet longsword seemed to darken into a deep black color. The blood warrior, whose farm was the highest in the entire field, who had a full set of equipment and could deal massive DPS, cut down the three people from OD with one knife. This left the OD whod just taken an entire wave of damage in the face completely stunned. This wasnt a blood warrior, it was a f*cking devil, ahhhh!!! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Close double kill. FTW.Close triple kill. FTW.Close quadrakill. FTW.Close pentakill! OD, wiped out. Not to mention the scrolling comments in the live broadcast, even the teams at the banquet hall sucked in a breath. The commentator raised his voice and said, Congratulations to Close on getting a pentakill! The first pentakill in winter training! Congratulations to FTW for winning the game! After killing off everyone on the opposite side, FTW pushed all the way to the OD crystal and rushed into the top three of the prize pool competition. After exploding the other partys resurrection crystal, Wei Xiao looked at Lu Feng, Captain! Lu Feng turned to look at him. Wei Xiaos lips moved. Lu Fengs pupils contracted. He remembered now. During that game in the bronze segment when theyd been messing around Lu Feng had used the fire mage and gotten the easiest pentakill ever. The youths pleasant voice had penetrated into his heart through the headsetCC The pentakill is yours, and you belong to me. Suddenly, Lu Feng seemed to realize something. xiin: getting sooo close~ Chapter 84: Mess with Proud Flower Kim The cheers from the audience in the entire room were layered with a wonderful analysis of the last group battle. Quiet has taken the functional jungler to the extreme. He was able to determine win or lose while wearing straw sandals. This power thief is really good! The discussions in the scrolling comments were even more heated. This FTW jungler has some substance. This ground stab can be included in a wonderful highlights replay! Really amazing. He stood up with the resurrection armor and bewitched three people. Was this really a power thief? That was a f*cking siren, right! Hey, now that you say it, Quiets appearance, really doesnt lose out to a siren. The CP fans chattered quietly, Its over, its over, my heart. The great demon kings pentakill was an opportunity given to him by the power thief ahhhhh! Fellow sisters, I can read lips clearly, this section Quiet was saying Pentakill is yours You belong to me Holy shit! The all over heaven and earth, two hearts one mind, together forever, true love has no limit sisters all spiraled up to heaven! After winning the game, FTW showed enough of a gentlemanly style. They shook hands and embraced every OD player except for Zhou Xingfei. Zhou Xingfei, who was snubbed and left out, couldnt manage his own expression at all beneath the cameras. His entire posture and attitude was negative. Lu Feng wasnt very clear about how they stepped down from the stage. His mind was full of Wei Xiaos last words. It wasnt any different from his usual provocative words, and Bai Cai and the others had directly rolled their eyes when they heard it. Reasonably speaking, Lu Feng shouldnt have taken it seriously, but for some reason, he couldnt forget about it. It was like hed been bewitched by the power thiefs first skill, his eyes kept drifting towards Wei Xiaos body. Wei Xiao he Captain? Wei Xiao came close and called out to him. Lu Feng looked at the handsome face that was coming closer. Without thinking about it, he opened his mouth and asked, What are you trying to do? Wei Xiao was stunned, Ah? Lu Fengs black eyes were very deep, staring into his eyes as though he was trying to cause him to burst into flames, After winning the game, what exactly did you want to do? Why would he suddenly ask this all of a sudden! Wei Xiaos heart felt guilty, and his gaze skittered away, You-you shouldnt pour cold water over me at this time. They were about to start the semi-finals game. It was unknown whether FTW would be lucky or not, and they didnt know if theyd be playing one game or two. Captain, dont attack him at such a critical moment. Lu Feng caught his wrist, Wei Xiao Chen Feng asked, Who will go up and draw lots? Lu Feng: . The fire that was burning on the tip of his heart gradually subsided. It wasnt the right time. They were still competing, and now wasnt the time to talk about it. After forcing his throbbing heart back down, Lu Feng made use of his superior self-control and stabilized his mind, Ill go. Chen Feng was a little shocked, Youll go? This was too unexpected. The top three places had already been determined. There was no suspense for L&P and Pro, and FTW had also just broken their way out of the siege. Although 3U had lost to L&P, theyd played beautifully and could feel proud despite their defeat. Three teams had broken out of the crowd at the end. Because there was only a prize for first place, there wasnt much significance in having a wheel battle. Theyd draw lots, and those who drew to play would fight. If they won, theyd enter the finals, if they lost, theyd be eliminated. There wasnt much of a problem there. After all, there was no difference between second and third place. If they lost, they lost. There was no need to give second chances. In fact, Chen Feng had asked who would go up to draw lots because he wanted to see what Wei Xiao wanted. Intellectually, Chen Feng held no hope for the final bonus. There was a L&P and a Pro, neither of which were teams that todays FTW could challenge. Their chances of winning were too slim. It was better to grasp this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and train well instead. In the arena, every regular fight to win was countless times more effective than a standard training match. The emotions were different, their mental states were different, the atmosphere was different, and the desire and determination to win were even more different. To say more about it, no matter how much they trained and recapped, none of it was as fast or effective as a real bullet and gun. Chen Feng wanted them to play two games. If they lost, then they lost, but every game they played was a game where they learned! He had originally thought that Wei Xiao, who let things get to his head, would be the one to draw lots. Unexpectedly, it was Lu Feng whod spoken up to go. He always had the feeling that Lu Fengs mood was a little off, especially when it came to the gaze he used to look at Wei Xiao Chen Fengs heart clenched: No way, at such a critical time, you you cant hold back anymore? Lu Feng managed to hold back. His heart was beating very fast, and his palms were sweating. However, he didnt say anything, and he didnt even look towards Wei Xiao. He couldnt ask, and he didnt dare to ask. If Wei Xiao really liked him. The emotions that Lu Feng had accumulated over such a long time would completely break through the shackles hed placed on them. And right now, he definitely couldnt lose control. Banquet hall. Live stream studio. Countless pairs of eyes from around the world were watching them. The most urgent thing that FTW needed to do now was to win the competition. One game, or two games, they would win them all! Lu Feng was eager for victory, more so than hed been for any other previous game. Yuan Ze came up to draw lots for L&P, and for Pro, it was Kim Sung-hyun. The three starters from the Team of Gods were gathered together on the stage for this kind of situation; it was indeed something to sigh over. All the cameras were focused on them, and the three people who had outstanding appearances were particularly brilliant beneath the spotlights. The beautiful little sister hosts voice was a little weak, Come on then, lets have a look at the results Oh man, they all said that the e-sports circle was filled with round, fat, and ugly players. Why were the auras of these three so stunning then, with each one seeming more like a superstar than the previous one?! Both Kim Sung-hyun and Lu Feng had cold expressions on their faces. One was like a proud flower of Kaolin, while the other was unapproachable and indifferent. Scum Man Yuans peach blossom aura was completely at odds with the other two. Yuan Ze stood closer to them than the host and could feel the contrast more deeply. He muttered to himself in his heart: What was up with these two brats. Nothing was up. They just wanted to win. Kim Sung-hyun wanted to win, and Lu Feng also wanted to win! The results were announced. Yuan Ze had drawn a blank, and the teams that had to fight were FTW and Pro. Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. Brother Cai, who was beside him, could sense it, What, youre nervous? Wei Xiao spoke seriously, Old Bai, I want to win. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao exhaled lightly and said, Support me. I have to win this game! He was speaking to Bai Cai, but his eyes were locked on Lu Feng. It just so happened that Lu Feng was also looking at him. Across the stage, across the lights, across countless things that they couldnt see or identify clearly, they looked at each other. At that moment, everything in Wei Xiaos chest was clamoring to win the game. Victory became the only way for him to vent the emotions that had been squeezed to the extreme. He cant stand it anymore. He couldnt hold it back. He liked this person and wanted him. It was that simple. Lu Feng was the first to shift his gaze away. It had already reached this point. If he still didnt know how Wei Xiao felt, then it would be purposeful self-deception. When did it start? When had Wei Xiao started Lu Feng took a light breath and emptied his mind. He couldnt think about it. This wasnt the time to think about these things. They would have an endless amount of time to think about it after winning the game. When they went up onto the stage again, both FTW and Pro were in high spirits. This was a level of seriousness that could be seen by the naked eye, and it was an unreserved, passionate desire for battle. This game was only two steps away from the winter training championship. If they won, they could rush towards first place, plundering the ten million prize pool that had been accumulated over the past 15 days and achieve a triumphant victory. If they lost, they could only withdraw from the competition regretfully. If they wanted to compete again, they would have to wait until a few months later, during the global competition. This would be the last regular formal game between FTW and Pro. And it was also their second game. In the first game, Pros captain Li Heran had been absent due to a hand injury, and Pro had lost to FTW. In this second game, Li Heran was sitting steadily on the stage, and the white bandage that had blocked his wrist from view was no longer there. Would the Pro who was in its full state lose to FTW? There was no doubt that this was Pros battle to clear their previous shame! The BP segment soon began. Pro released many assassin type heroes, a move that was full of provocation. Kim Sung-hyun wasnt afraid of any type of thief. He used the BP segment to convey this to the whole world. They were welcome to charge in and attack. Pro was 100% based around its marksman core, and if they had the ability, then come over and cut him to death! Chen Feng glanced at Wei Xiao, Shadow thief? Wei Xiao: Yes. He hadnt used the shadow thief in a long time, but this was undoubtedly Wei Xiaos best hero. The audience watched as FTW took the shadow thief, and they couldnt help but whistle in front of their computers. Closes shadow thief was countless peoples faith. Quiets shadow thief, could it carry on this glory? Lu Feng took the death knight. The commentators: The scent of gunpowder fills the air! Death knight plus shadow thief. They are really targeting Kim Sung-hyun to death. Theyre right to target Kim Sung-hyun. However, when it comes to Pro, theyre very much not afraid of God Kim being targeted. Whether FTWs blade is tougher or Pros arrows are sharper, lets wait and see! The BP ended. Both sides were clearly determined and grabbed advantages in their line-ups. FTWs side: Death knight, shadow thief, immortal warlock, light priest, storm hunter. Pro: Divine warrior, power thief, ice mage, elemental shaman, gold hunter. From this line-up, it could be seen how exciting this game would be. FTWs entire line-up was a direct attack line-up. There was no need to mention their top-lane and jungler; as long as the opportunity was there, they could insta-kill the heavens, earth, and everything else in between; their mid-lane immortal warlock was also an assassin mage type talent, if he could grasp the opportunity, he could fly up into the sky and take away the opposing sides c-position with a set of skills; the storm hunter was even more famous for its flexibility, once it was played well, the other sides gold hunter would be beat up until they entered seclusion. FTWs intentions were written all over their facesCCtheyd mess with Proud Flower Kim, mess with him until he died. Pro was also very straightforward. The divine warrior tended towards support, their power thief was a functional type jungler, their ice mage was strong at providing control, and the elemental shaman was Li Herans best hero. If the skills were used well, it would allow his teammates to sit back up constantly (resurrection skill). Kim Sung-hyuns gold hunter didnt need to be explained further. In a wonderful match during last years global elimination series, everyone suspected that the gold from the gold hunter was actually named for Kim Sung-hyuns surname. It was too amazing His ultimate move was accurate across the entire map. Hed sniped countless players into seclusion. The match began. The BO1 competition system made this game extremely tense. It left no room for mistakes, made no allowances for slow warm-ups, and they had to be in a winning state right from the start. They would either win or be eliminated. Both sides only had one chance. Wei Xiao: Captain, the opposite sides red. Lu Feng: Yes. Brother Vegetables light priest followed Wei Xiao the whole time. In fact, Bai Cai wasnt very interested in todays competition. Although there was 10 million if they won, the likelihood of that was too slim. As everyone knew, the champion would be either L&P or Pro. FTW had won against Pro when they were in a bad state previously, but it was too much to want to win against Pro when they were at their full state. It wasnt self-deprecation. This was a reasonable, rational analysis. Maybe FTW could win in the global competition. However, it was very difficult for the FTW who had only been broken in for a short ten days to break down the powerful team Pro. Bai Cai had the attitude of learning and experiencing when he participated in the game, but Wei Xiao was too serious. He had always been serious when it came to all matches, but this time, he was more serious than before. Serious to the point where even Bai Cais nerves were tensed up, and he didnt dare to relax in the slightest. After executing a sneak attack on the opposite sides red buff, Wei Xiao quickly went back to clean up his top jungle zone, then turned to enter the bottom jungle zone. Bai Cai provided vision for him the whole way, It feels like Kim Sung-hyun is there. Wei Xiao: Screw him. Bai Cais heart leapt up to his throat, You Wei Xiao knew what he was curious about, I want to win. Bai Cai: I know, but your current state Is too focused on winning. Everyone in the team chat could hear their conversation. Wei Xiao didnt try to avoid it and said directly, I want to win and do something. Brother Cai couldnt keep himself from asking, Do what? Wei Xiao looked at Kim Sung-hyuns figure, and the corners of his lips curved up, The most important event of ones life. Chapter 85: Big brother, I want to win His voice had just fallen when the shadow thief stepped forward, throwing its shadow attack onto the gold hunters back. The short blade stabbed him in the waist. Kim Sung-hyuns reactions were very quick. Although he was wounded by the attack, he immediately used flash and pulled away from the shadow thief. If there had been the slightest bit of hesitation in his movements, the gold hunter would already be dead. Li Herans recovery totem stabbed into the ground beside the gold hunter, replenishing his health second by second. Bai Cai was startled by Wei Xiaos words, but his hands didnt slow down at all. He understood this beast too well. If he made a mistake at such a critical moment, Wei Xiao would eat him alive! The light priests first skill flew out. He came out of the grass to provide vision, and at the same time, the skill locked in on the nearest target. Li Heran blocked in front of Kim Sung-hyun and took the brunt of the control skill. Wei Xiao: Tsk. The shadow thief didnt pause at all. As soon as his skill cooldown ended, he immediately jumped up again. Although he didnt have his ultimate move yet and couldnt brush out any light arcs, combining his first and second skill was already enough to deal explosive damage. Li Heran wasnt anxious or hurried. The totems in his hands switched out very quickly, smashing right into the shadow thief. Kim Sung-hyun hid behind his captains body, and the golden arrows fell down like rain Was the first kill of the game about to explode here?! Which team would be graced by First Blood? Everyone stared nervously at the screen, watching this shadow thief who was like a newborn calf that was unafraid of the tiger, and the gold hunter who trampled thieves beneath its feet all year round. Who would F*ck! The scrolling comments were full of howls. I originally thought it would be like a spark on dry firewood, either you die or I die. Why did they back off? I already placed all my bets, but you guys arent fighting anymore? Fight, hey, the shadow thief should go up and mess with the gold hunter! Gold hunter, shoot and kill the shadow thief! After both sides met in the canyon and exchanged a set of skills, both sides retreated rationally, choosing to avoid fighting each other. The commentator: Both sides are playing very cautiously in this game. It seems that there wont be any fighting in the early stages, and theyll focus on developing for a while. After all, the shadow thief is very dependent on its ultimate move As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped in the face by the scene on the screen. To hell with a rational retreat, to hell with avoiding a fight! These four people had clearly been engaging in tactical acting! Pretending to retreat was in fact a tactic to lure the enemy in. Kim Sung-hyun hadnt expected Wei Xiao to be so cautious. Wei Xiao hadnt expected Kim Sung-hyun to be so timid. The two sides were halfway through their act when they watched the other side want to escape. Both sides then quickly turned back to fight again. The audience in the scrolling comments: Commentator A: Commentator B saved his colleague, The shadow thiefs skills are up, but the elemental shamans protection is very comprehensive, and the gold hunter is dealing considerable damage! For better or worse, things were smoothed over for Commentator A, and they went back to talking about the fight. Retreating rationally was impossible. If they didnt fight against each other, then how could they live up to the feelings that had built up when they enjoyed the cold sea breeze together? Wei Xiao focused on Kim Sung-hyun, and Kim Sung-hyun was also locked in on Wei Xiao. The shadow thief used its positioning to avoid damage, and the gold hunter was also careful to deal damage from the furthest possible distance, never giving him a chance to approach. Bai Cai wasnt just there for show. He healed Wei Xiao and looked for opportunities, Ill control Li Heran. You go up and mess with Kim Sung-hyun. Wei Xiao: Wait. This fellow who was normally so playful, became even colder and calmer than the shadow thief once he was immersed in the game. Those who played assassins, if they didnt have the opportunistic nature of a cheetah, they wouldnt be able to kill people at all! Bai Cai stared fixedly at the screen and finally found the right time, Steady! Wei Xiao had already rushed up. Bai Cais control skill only lasted for 0.5 seconds. This time period was too short; if he couldnt kill the gold hunter while Li Heran was unable to move, then Wei Xiao and Bai Cai would both be dead. Wei Xiao took advantage of a short-range movement skill to strengthen his basic attack, then shadow jumped to the gold hunters back. Kim Sung-hyun was very calm. He wasnt flustered at all; a shadow thief without its ultimate move wanted to kill him? They must be dreaming. Wei Xiaos three available skills were all smashed onto Kim Sung-hyuns body. Kim Sung-hyuns health plummeted, and he fell into a seriously injured state instantly. However, he still wasnt anxious. He countered with a shower of arrows, shooting at Wei Xiao. Bai Cais control skill was gone. Li Herans hand speed was amazing, creating a stack of totems that landed around Kim Sung-hyun, returning him back to half health right away. The shadow thief was still attacking. He made use of perfect positioning, and in a situation where no mistakes were made, he could continue on until his mana ran dry. Old Bai! Got it! Was Li Heran the only one who could heal? Brother Cai could heal, too! The health that Kim Sung-hyun had taken away from the shadow thief was once again raised back up. The players themselves were executing their flashy moves calmly in the face of danger, but the audience was so nervous that they were breaking out in goosebumps. They still havent f*cking died! He-he-hes not dead?! Theyre not level six yet. How come these four people fight like theyre already in the second half of the game? I didnt expect that Brother Cai would be so strong. He was actually able to keep up with this pace. Havent you noticed? The Brother Vegetable who supports Quiet and the Brother Vegetable who supports Close arent the same vegetable. The CP fans were crying, So, Brother Vegetables true love is Quiet? Laozi has been shipping the great demon king and his little spoiled lover, but its all fake?! This fight looked like it had lasted for a century, but in fact, only a few seconds had passed. In the mid-lane, Ning Zhehan held back the ice mage, not letting him go down to the bottom lane to provide support. Pros jungler stalked Yue Wenle so that he couldnt help by dealing extra damage. The top-laners for both sides were too far away. If they rushed over to support, they would lose their tower, and the gains wouldnt be worth the loss. This was a battle between Wei Xiao and Bai Cai versus Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran. Whoever won, whoever lost, it would all depend on these four! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed Pro.Succe. The shadow thief killed the gold hunter! Quiet took First Blood! Amazing! But the shadow thief is done for Another system announcement emerged. Pro.Ran killed FTW.Quiet. Wei Xiao, who had only a sliver of health left, was killed by Li Heran. This wasnt a loss. FTW made a profit in this wave. Thats right. Not only did they take First Blood, the shadow thief kill was given to the other sides support. Its a steady profit. Gold would be earned with each kill, but out of the entire team, the support position was the one that least needed the farm. Li Heran had killed Wei Xiao, but it was a meaningless kill for Pro. On the other hand, Wei Xiao killed Kim Sung-hyun and obtained the First Blood bonus, instantly becoming number one in farm value on the map. With such a smooth start, FTWs momentum increased! The fans in South Korea were nervous, Hasnt Captain Lis hand recovered? In this wave, the elemental shaman didnt make any mistakes. It was the gold hunter that was too anxious in the last half a second, and his positioning was a little too far ahead. God Kim doesnt seem to be in a very good state No way, are we going to lose to FTW? F*ck, Laozis coins, Im going to be broke after this wave! What are you guys anxious for? Its only been a few minutes since the start of the game. So what if he took First Blood? When the gold hunter is developed up, the shadow thief can only kneel down and beg for mercy. The China competition zone was naturally jubilant. Love it, love it. Quiet always surprises me. A thief who managed to survive under Daddy Hyuns hands, Quiet is amazing! The anti-fans also added to the drama, If FTW can win the championship in winter training, Ill turn into a FTW fan for three minutes. The fans, collectively, Get lost. Wei Xiao was able to play out a strong momentum in the bottom jungle zone, but in the top lane, Lu Feng actually missed a soldier. Even if he was a firm-hearted person, he would still be shocked after getting taken by surprise by Wei Xiaos previous sentence. Especially After hed basically confirmed Wei Xiaos feelings. The most important event of ones life. After winning the game, Wei Xiao wanted to do the most important event of ones life. It had something to do with him. Lu Feng suddenly recalled the words Wei Xiao had spoken in the hotel corridor after rushing out with his hair still wetCC Captain, I like you. Lu Fengs fingers trembled slightly. He tried to stabilize his operations and make no mistakes. Could it be that ever since then 10 days ago, Wei Xiao had Lu Feng took a deep breath and didnt dare to think about it anymore. Win the game. Win the game as soon as possible. He wanted to ask him, he wanted to ask him about it clearly! Ding The death knight reached level six, and became a death knight who could switch forms. CCOne form was for attack and was like a roiling black fog, filling the air with killing intent like a death god whod walked out of hell. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Close killed Pro.UU. After Wei Xiao grabbed First Blood, FTW took down another kill! The great demon king is steady! FTW shouldve changed lanes a long time ago. With Closes powerful solo ability, the team has a strong iron wall in the top lane. Thats for sure. This top lane is just like an iron plate, anyone who hits it ends up smashing their heads against it. The commentators began to praise FTW like crazy, and the audience also felt that FTW had high chances of winning the game this time. Under the stage, Chen Feng leaned back in his seat, his expression calm. He wasnt nervous, because hed already made his mental preparations a long time ago. Winning wasnt necessarily a good thing. Losing wasnt necessarily a bad thing. Seizing the opening advantage with two kills was something that FTW had fought for fiercely. Pros line-up tended towards the late stage. The ice mage could only be described as miserable as it faced off against Ning Zhehans immortal warlock in the mid-lane. Little Ning played assassin mages very fiercely, and he was in a good state for this game. He was actually able to suppress the other side. Yue Wenle didnt understand the concept of cowering at all. Adding on Wei Xiaos crazy ganking, they pressured Kim Sung-hyun until he had to stay beneath his own tower, passively clearing soldiers. No matter how one looked at it, it was FTW pressuring Pro, and there was hope that FTW would win this game. However A calmer person would know the real situation when they looked at the farm panel. It was hard to say. FTW, who had such a big advantage in terms of the situation on the surface, had never been ahead of Pro in terms of farm. Kim Sung-hyun, whod been pressured constantly, even had a little bit more gold than Wei Xiao did. Other than Pros top-laner whod died twice and fallen behind in farm, the other lanes were stable and on par with FTWs. This was not a good omen. Theyd had such a big advantage, yet still hadnt been able to snowball the situation. It was really uncertain how the situation would develop in the later stages. Pros team chat had been quiet the whole time. Except for normal signaling and communication, there was no nonsense at all. Kim Sung-hyun stared at the screen. The operations of his hands were perfect, not even the tiniest bit of resources was left behind, and not a single drop of damage went to waste. He executed very precise micro-operations. IWho knew how long this level of skill had been tempered for, or how much work had been put into it. Playing ADC was very tiring. It was a profession that relied on basic attacks and required clicking on the mouse continuously, constantly shifting and moving positions. Even without mentioning other things, ordinary peoples fingers wouldnt be able to stand blindly clicking the mouse mechanically, let alone when it required such precise movements. Countless marksmens hands had been destroyed by this endless overwork. During the middle stage of the game, during a fight over the ancient creature, Wei Xiao once again ganked the gold hunter, and the two of them died together! The ancient creature was taken down by Lu Feng, and Pro lost another wave of fighting. The later the game dragged on, the longer it would take to resurrect. Kim Sung-hyun stared at the dim screen, I want to win. These four words rang in four peoples headsets, making their hands clench over the mouse. Li Heran: The corners of Kim Sung-hyuns lips tightened, and his voice was somber, Big brother, I want to win. It was unknown how much time had passed; perhaps it was only one second, or perhaps it was three or five years. Li Heran whispered, Okay. Pro, whod won the world doubles championship and galloped all the way into the global finals, woke up. In FTWs team chat. Bai Cai said nervously, Li Herans started to roam! Lu Feng: Shadow thief, be careful. Wei Xiao hadnt even opened his mouth yet when the sound of something streaking through the air came over. He looked at the golden arrow that shot straight at his face and was stunned for a moment. There was a bang. The golden arrow hit him, and a powerful control skill lasting 3.5 seconds kept him completely immobile. Bai Cai: Not good! Wei Xiao immediately said, Dont come over! Bai Cai stopped moving, knowing that it was already too late. If he went over, he would just be sending himself to his death. The elemental shaman gave his teammates an acceleration totem, and a set of skills from the power thief landed on Wei Xiao. How could the squishy shadow thief withstand such a concentrated attack. Park Guizhi killed Wei Xiao, and Pro was finally able to take a kill. Kim Sung-hyun didnt show up at all during the entire process, but this kill was to his credit. The gold hunters ultimate move could cross the entire map. The further away the enemy was from him, the longer the control time of his ultimate move. What did 3.5 seconds represent? Launching a whole set of skills only took one or two seconds. 3.5 seconds was enough time to die twice! Pro began to fight back. A Li Heran who was following Kim Sung-hyun the whole time wasnt terrifying, but as soon as he started to roam, that was where the real horror lay. The tacit understanding of a doubles team was really amazing. Li Heran provided Kim Sung-hyun with vision, and Kim Sung-hyuns golden arrow never missed. Why did everyone say that Kim Sung-hyun could smear thieves all over the ground? With Li Herans cooperation, he could make any jungler collapse. He hit the target with every shot, and it was followed by death. Kim Sung-hyun didnt take a single kill, but Wei Xiao died three times. The audience in the live broadcast studio were stunned. The gold hunter is really surnamed Kim. This prediction is godly, how does he manage to make every arrow hit. The key isnt Kim Sung-hyun, its Li Heran. Li Heran is too familiar with the gold hunter. The signals he gives have already estimated the startup time and trajectory. Li Heran After all, he was once the number one marksman. After switching to a support position, he was still someone who understood marksmen the most. In just a short ten minutes, the situation on the field reversed. Pro harvested five kills, and even pushed down a tower on the bottom lane. Their farm pulled ahead of FTW by 3000 gold, and they started on the road of absolute suppression. Pros tactics were really fierce. The mid-lane and top-laner held down Close. Kim Sung-hyun guarded the bottom lane alone, while Li Heran and Park Guizhi roamed around and ganked people. All the kills began with a golden arrow. Once it hit, the power thief would use a set of skills to take the kill. Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan died three times and two times, respectively. They were completely unable to think of a way to fight back. They were unable to break this 3.5 second forced control and could only wait to be slaughtered. What could they do? How could they stop this situation that was heading constantly towards defeat? Wei Xiaos hands were sweating. He wanted to win, he needed to win, there was something he had to do after he won! Lu Fengs voice came from over the headset, Lead them to the dragon pit. Wei Xiao was stunned, Captain Lu Feng: Trust me. Wei Xiao gritted his teeth, Okay! Lu Feng, whod been entangled by two people on the top lane, inhaled lightly and stared at the ice mages positioning error. Opportunity. The death knight switched to its more dexterous form, using a series of moves to trigger the passive that avoided control skills. He ignored Pros divine warrior and suddenly appeared right in front of the ice mages face. Pros mid-laner yelled, Not good! Park Guizhi, whod been dragged over to the dragon pit by Wei Xiao, couldnt make it over in time. It was already too late to provide support. The emissary from hell who was surrounded by an aura of death tore into the ice mage. The ice mage fell to the ground. The divine warriors long spear stabbed forward, and the death knight moved to avoid it, switching back to heavy armor. He sliced down with the long sword, and the divine warrior instantly lost half its health. System Announcement: FTW.Close killed Pro.UU. FTW.Close killed Pro.Cui. Close, whod been surrounded by two people, took a double kill! Chapter 86: A Kiss editors: apricot & juurensha Close ended Pros advantage. The great demon king once again pulled FTW out of the mire! Wei Xiao took a deep breath, filled with nervous tension, Opportunity! This was indeed a wonderful opportunity, one that the captain had broken open for them with his longsword that took down two people by himself! Two people from the Pro side died, and they would be fighting a five against three battle. As long as they could kill Kim Sung-hyun, FTW might even be able to end the game in one big wave. Wanted to win, needed to win, had to win. The more heated the blood in his body was, the calmer Wei Xiao was. He glanced at the minimap, and there was already a clear plan of action in his brain. Yue Wenle was on the way down. He was a little far away, and they couldnt wait for him to arrive. Little Ning was free and would be in position right away. Although the captain had killed two people on his own, he wasnt in a good state, and it would be difficult for him to participate in the battle. Wei Xiao, Bai Cai, and Ning Zhehan against Kim Sung-hyun, Li Heran, and Park Guizhi. Three against three. Could they do it? Go! It didnt matter if they could or not; they had to keep them where they were. Even if the three FTW players all died, Yue Wenle, who was coming in behind them would also be able to harvest the kills, let alone the fact that there was still the captain. It wasnt a big deal if the captain was in a bad state. As long as he found the right opportunity, he would still be able to stab the enemy to death. Ning Zhehan had already flown into the clouds, taking the lead in smashing a set of kills at Park Guizhi. Pros thinking was very clear; protect Kim Sung-hyun. Park Guizhi was a jungler, but half of his gear was tank gear. The armor on his body made him no less solid than Li Herans elemental shaman. Li Heran supplemented him with a defensive totem, making it so that Ning Zhehans damage spattered against his body like raindrops, dealing an insignificant amount of damage. However, Little Ning wasnt trying to kill Park Guizhi. He was luring the tiger away from the mountain! The immortal warlock who was flying on the clouds distracted the three people from the Pro team. Bai Cai threw a set of buffs onto the shadow thief and yelled, Get him! Wei Xiao didnt say a single word. It was as though his aura had disappeared along with his shadow thief as he quietly walked around behind Pro. His crimson blade flashed Kim Sung-hyun was extremely sensitive and immediately found the shadow thiefs trail, Bro! Li Herans reaction was even faster. He stabbed a healing totem and an acceleration totem right next to Kim Sung-hyuns body. The shaman had already started to link up its moves, and the eight light arcs covered the sky and earth. The power thief and elemental shaman were fleshy, but they were also cut down to half health. Brother Cai: Nice! This level of damage was good. Kim Sung-hyun would die. Lu Feng: Retreat. The three people from FTW were stunned. Wei Xiao realized that something was wrong. Brother Cai: F*ck, he didnt die?! Wei Xiao: Resurrection totem. The elemental shaman had sacrificed 80% of his own health. In that 0.01 second gap, hed created a resurrection totem and inserted it next to Kim Sung-hyun, who had been about to fall to the ground. Now Kim Sung-hyun came back from the dead. The golden arrow flew out, but the target it controlled wasnt Wei Xiao, but Lu Feng, who was far off in the distance. The death knight who only had a sliver of health fell beneath this golden arrow that had flown across the whole map. Bursts of cold rushed to the back of Wei Xiaos brain. The next second, the gold hunters arrows shot at the shadow thief. Wei Xiao pulled away quickly, but unfortunately, he was too close. As long as the golden arrow was locked in, it would track and follow even if he pulled back. After getting hit by two arrows in a row, the shadow thiefs health bar was cleared out. At the last second, Wei Xiao switched in a resurrection armor. Hed just stood up when the power thiefs ground stab landed beneath his feet. Wei Xiaos heart thudded. He was controlled and pulled back. The brilliant arrow of light stabbed straight into his heart. System AnnouncementCC Pro.Succe killed FTW.Quiet. Wei Xiao stared at the screen in a daze, his hands covered in cold sweat. The shadow thief fell to the ground, and the gold hunters next target was the immortal warlock. Ning Zhehan was taken out by two arrows. Yue Wenle rushed over, but unfortunately, he wasnt here to harvest anything. Instead, he was bewitched by a ground stab and ended up sending his head over to the gold hunter. System announcements rang out one after another. Pro.Succe took a pentakill. FTW was wiped out. This was the strength of a team in the worlds top four, the tacit understanding of a doubles championship team. This was Kim Sung-hyun in his peak state, and the terrible oppression he lorded over his opponents! Defeat. FTWs resurrection crystal exploded, and they lost the game. Wei Xiao stared woodenly at the screen, his handsome eyes unable to focus. Brother Cai leaned back in his e-sports chair like hed been drained of all his strength. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were still in a daze, completely stunned by the last wave and the opposing teams ace. How had they done it? How on earth had they done it! How had Li Heran managed to launch seven or eight totems in a row? How had Kim Sung-hyun, whod developed enough, managed to determine Lu Fengs position? That arrow had been too deadly. If he hadnt killed Lu Feng, it would be difficult to say who would have won or lost. Wei Xiao had to die, and Little Ning wouldnt be able to live, but even so, as long as Lu Feng was there, by counting in Yue Wenle and Bai Cai, they could still fight a 3v3! But Kim Sung-hyuns ultimate move had locked in on Lu Feng. FTW lost completely. The sound of cheers brought the FTW team members back to their senses. When Wei Xiao stood up, he noticed Lu Fengs gaze. He clenched his fists and went out with his head bowed. Wei Xiao wasnt clear about how they shook hands, hugged, and stepped down from the stage. All he knew was that his entire body felt cold when he sat down. This was a very familiar feeling. Two years ago, when hed learned that his grandmother was seriously ill, hed also been shrouded by this feeling. This was a sense of despair like he was about to lose the most important thing to him. It was a feeling of being helpless, powerless, a pain that could crush one to pieces. Theyd lost. Hed lost such an important game. The two million hed promised. The feelings he wanted to express. All of it was killed in that last light arrow. Wei Xiao. Lu Feng called out to him softly. Wei Xiaos ears trembled, but he didnt look up. Chen Fengs worried gaze shifted over, Its just a winter training competition. Youve all done a great job. Theyd really done great, going beyond everyones expectations. Even the haters didnt have the face to hate on this years FTW. Two of the five starters had no competition experience, yet they were able to make it into the top three in the winter training competition. This was enough for the China competition zones Glory circle to show off for the next year and a half. The match between FTW and Pro just now was very worthy of praise. FTW had played very well at the start of the game, and they had even managed to show signs of a counterattack after being suppressed in the middle stages. That last wave was really heartbreaking. However, there wasnt anything that could be done. Experience and maturity needed time to settle in. FTW had already grown at an amazing rate! Tang Chen patted Wei Xiao on the shoulder, Victory or defeat are both common occurrences. Brat, you cant be scared of losing? Wei Xiao wasnt scared to lose. He was never afraid. Losing wasnt a big deal, he just had to win again after! Life was very long. There would be many chances to win, and Wei Xiao had never been scared of failure. It was just that this time, he felt very miserable. The courage that hadnt been easy for him to find was now all gone. He didnt know how to face the captain. Lu Feng reached out and held his clenched fist. Wei Xiaos eyes abruptly opened wide. Lu Fengs hands were very beautiful, with long fingers and distinct joints. They were pale like a piece of exquisite jade and just the right width. Such a pair of hands, it seemed that they should be cool to the touch. But his palm was very hot. When it wrapped around the back of Wei Xiaos hand, the warmth made him want to shiver. Wei Xiaos heart was in a state of turmoil, and his emotions that had been suppressed to the extreme were about to burst out. He wanted to flip his hand over and hold hands. Wanted to tell him how he felt. Wanted him to know that he liked him. Such a good captain. He didnt want to give him to anyone else. He wanted him. He wanted him to be his! Its alright. Lu Fengs deep voice rang in his ear, We still have a long road ahead of us. Wei Xiaos eyes were red. Other than biting his lips, he didnt know what else to do. CCWei Xiao, how come you dont even know how to cry. CCWei Xiao, you dont have a father or a mother, is that why you dont have tears, either? CCThis child is really strange, the grandmother who raised him left, yet he didnt cry. How could he cry. Who could he cry to. Only those who were cared for were qualified to cry. Pata. A tear fell on the back of the hand that looked as cool as white jade. Lu Fengs heart clenched. He squeezed his hand. Wei Xiao didnt want to act in such a shameful manner; he didnt want to lose face in front of so many people, on an occasion like this. But But Lu Feng pulled him towards him and pressed his head against his shoulder, Be good, Little Xiao, dont cry. These words were spoken in a very, very low voice, so low that even Wei Xiao himself didnt hear them. He simply pressed his forehead against Lu Fengs shoulder, his black hair hiding his damp eyes. Captain Hm? If you do this Wei Xiao choked, Ill be all spoiled and haughty due to your love. Lu Feng: . He chuckled quietly and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear, Thats fine. Wei Xiaos heart banged against his chest. He continued, I want to use your clothes to wipe my tears. Mm. And my snot. Lu Feng pinched his fingers. Wei Xiaos heart fluttered. Countless streams of warmth poured into his chest, squeezing so hard that he almost couldnt stand it. Why was there such a good captain? Why was there such a Close? Why was he so good to him. If there was a god, then Wei Xiao, at this moment, finally felt that he had been cared for. The final match was between L&P and Pro. Kim Sung-hyun thoroughly played out his potential. He took advantage of having already warmed up and forced L&P step by step towards defeat right from the start. Yuan Ze and Gary were his mortal enemies. Normally, they would camp on him until he went into seclusion. However, today, it wasnt clear if it was Kim Sung-hyun whod found the right state, or if it was Li Heran whod suppressed himself for over ten days and finally burst out. This pairs cooperation was godly. They could barely be seen talking, and there was almost no verbal communication. However, the support and marksman players on the screen seemed to act like a single person. They knew exactly what the other party was thinking. Pro won the championship with overwhelming momentum. This years Pro was amazing. Everyone could feel the momentum that Kim Sung-hyun released. He wanted to win. The South Korean Pro team was really hungry for the National Championships! Glory belonged to the first place. Millions of dollars of prize money and endless applause and cheers all belonged to Pro that night. Kim Sung-hyun took the FMVP, but his expression was still indifferent. When the host interviewed him, he said, I hope that next time, it will be Li Heran who gets the FMVP. Li Herans quiet black eyes swept towards him. FMVP was a title that only the core of the finals championship team could get. This sentence by Kim Sung-hyun meant that not only did he want Pro to win the championship, he also wanted to have Li Heran to become the most valuable Glory player in the world for 2020! He wanted a player whod been in service for six years, who was once the number one ADC, whod retired from the position and switched to support, to once again win the FMVP! 15 days of intensive training came to an end. It was very necessary for FTW to review their last game, but it wasnt urgent. Theyd competed all day for the medal pool competition, and it was already late. Everyone was also very tired. Chen Feng only said a few things, then watched them return to their rooms. Normally, after the end of a game, the least worried one out of the entire team was Wei Xiao. Today, it was the other way around. The other players were alright, and they hadnt suffered much of a blow from losing the competition. Instead, they were eager to train, wanting to become stronger. In particular, Ning Zhehans mentality had taken a great leap of growth during this experience, his tension and panic slowly fading away. Little Lunatic Wei, who had been the most passionate, was now overly quiet. Chen Feng was worried, but when he thought about how Lu Feng was the best medicine for the little lunatic, he didnt head over to say anything more. He figured that as long as the two of them soloed a few times, Wei Xiaoxiao would resurrect with full health. They returned to the guest room. Wei Xiao started feeling a little awkward. Theyd lost the game, and his kiss was also gone. He didnt know when his confession would be able to succeed. What Wei Xiao lost wasnt just 2 million. It was clearly 20 billion. His mood that had been coaxed better by Lu Feng earlier plummeted once again. He spoke in a stuffy voice, Im going to shower. As soon as Wei Xiao stood up, he found that his wrist was being held. Lu Feng looked at him, his pair of black eyes seeming to hold a cluster of flames under the yellow lights. Wei Xiaos heart almost stopped when he faced that gaze. If we won, what did you want to do? Lu Feng asked him in a low voice. How could Wei Xiao say it out loud? He couldnt even breathe. Lu Feng: In fact, theres something Ive always wanted to do. His left hand was wrapped around Wei Xiaos wrist. He tilted his head and leaned in. A kiss landed on Wei Xiaos slightly parted lips. Wei Xiao: xiin: WERE YOU EXPECTING THAT? WAS IT SATISFYING? Chen Feng, the little lunatic will resurrect with full health, but not coz of solo~ also, happy thanksgiving! thank you all for following my novels, and stay safe & healthy during this holiday period! Chapter 87: The kind of like where I want to be your boyfriend It was a very light, shallow kiss, like a dragonfly skimming over a lake. Wei Xiao almost didnt realize what had happened. 0.5 seconds later F*ck! Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide. The dragonfly became a bomb and blew him up, all the way up to the sky. The captain had kissed him. The captain had kissed him! Not on the forehead, not on the cheek, but on his mouth! Lu Feng dropped his gaze and looked at him steadily, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: !!! His ears were feeling soft, what was going on? They were so soft they were about to turn into marshmallows! You Lu Fengs voice was a little hoarse, Do you get it? Did Wei Xiao get it? He got it. But he also didnt seem to get it! Wei Xiao didnt dare to look at him. He just quivered as he asked in a trembling voice, Why kiss me? If the captain said that it was just foreign etiquette, he would die on the spot right in front of him! Lu Feng released his wrist, sliding his slender fingers down to intertwine with his. Wei Xiao felt like hed just been electrocuted. He couldnt move, couldnt think, and could only feel the current zipping from the edge of his fingers and channeling through his body. Lu Feng said softly, Because I like you. Wei Xiaos face was thoroughly red, like hed just been drinking wine, and his brain was dizzy and fuzzy, The like between an older generation and a younger generation? Lu Feng: No. Wei Xiao: The like between family members? Lu Feng came close to him and looked into his eyes, Its the kind of like where I want to be your boyfriend. Wei Xiao: There was a series of bangs as a Disney fireworks show went off in his head. If these fireworks could be released, then the resort hotel night sky would probably become as bright as day. Boyfriend. Boyfriend. It turned out that there was such a word! The captain was so amazing! Wei Xiao hugged Lu Feng hard, holding on tightly as though wanting to stick himself to his skin and become a part of his body, Me too. The corners of Lu Fengs lips curved, and he hugged him back. Wei Xiao spoke loudly, Me too! Lu Fengs heart was beating no slower than his, Mm. Wei Xiao felt that this wasnt enough, it was far from enough. He had so many emotions squeezed together in his heart, and the simple me too couldnt describe even a thousandth of how he felt. I also like you, its not the younger generations like for an elder, not a familys love, not friendship, its When the words reached his mouth, Wei Xiao was a little embarrassed. He lowered his voice and buried his face in Lu Fengs neck, speaking softly, Its the type of like where I want to be your boyfriend. The arm that Lu Feng had wrapped around his waist tightened hard. Wei Xiaos entire body was on fire, he felt like a raging ball of fire, and he didnt know how to put it out. He could only say all the words that came to him. Can we do it? Lu Feng: ! Wei Xiao wrapped his arms around his neck, and his hot breath spread over his skin, Although I lost the game, although theres no two million can I still do that thing I wanted to do? The blood in Lu Fengs body that had stopped circulating slowly started to flow again. He deliberately pressed down on his waist and said, What do you want to do? Wei Xiao snorted softly, Itchy. Lu Feng: . Hed lifted a stone and hit his own feet. The great demon king was full of regret. Wei Xiao understood nothing about the world of adults. He was still immersed in his own small thoughts, Like this He loosened his arms around Lu Fengs neck and touched his lips lightly against Lu Fengs. Like how Lu Feng had kissed him, Wei Xiao kissed him back. It was what hed always wanted to do, what hed plucked up the courage to do. He finally did it. After kissing, Wei Xiao blushed so hard he almost exploded. Kissing was so amazing, having two pairs of lips touching was so exciting. Lu Fengs body was so hot it was like he was on fire. Just as he recovered his breath and was about to open his mouth to speak, Wei Xiao leaned in to give him another kiss. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao gave him another kiss. Lu Feng didnt move. Wei Xiao gave him another and another kiss. Lu Feng almost pressed him down onto the bed to deal with him on the spot. Fortunately, his remaining reason told him that Wei Xiaoxiao was very young. He had indeed reached adulthood at the age of 19, but he was obviously still emotionally immature. Lu Feng closed his eyes and released him, Im going to take a shower. Wei Xiaos heart was filled with sweetness and joy, and he was obedient to his every word, Okay! Lu Feng went to the bathroom, and Wei Xiao was left in the room by himself. After being silly for a while, he fell backwards onto the bed. He had no idea how to describe his mood at the moment. Happy, joyful. Countless good feelings were all squeezed into his chest, almost making his fist-sized heart burst apart. Was fate really fair? The first 19 years of suffering, was it all for the sake of meeting better people later? His grandma had been right. If one kept going, the clouds would always eventually part, and they would be able to see the brightness of the moon. Wei Xiaos nose grew a little sour, and he covered himself up with a pillow. Be a little more promising! Dont cry! It was such a happy time, what the hell was he crying for! Wei Xiao was too happy, like a child holding candy for the first time. He was so happy he didnt know what to do. The captain liked him. He liked the captain, too. It was the boyfriend type of like. He was the captains boyfriend! Wei Xiao couldnt help it. He took out his cell phone, opened up his Weibo, and typed out a line of wordsCCClose is mine! He moved his finger to the send button and watched as he pressed down. Ahhh. The thread of reason that was now as thin as a hair hooked him back and made him press cancel. He couldnt send it out, he couldnt tell other people. This happiness that was as big as the sky, he actually had to hide it and conceal it! Wei Xiao was going to explode! Captain! He shouted to Lu Feng from outside. Lu Feng heard him and turned off the shower, Hm? Wei Xiao: I like you! Lu Feng: . The shower turned back on, and he continued his cold shower. Wei Xiao felt that this wasnt enough, so he called him again, Close! The shower stopped again. Wei Xiaos eyes were curved with his smile, Close is mine! Lu Feng smiled slightly, Yes. Fortunately, the weather was hot on the island. Otherwise, with the way Lu Feng was taking his cold shower, he would have ended up in the hospital for two days. No matter how he said it, it was still missing something. Wei Xiaos mood, which couldnt be vented anywhere, aimed precisely at his good fellow brother. He stopped disturbing Lu Feng. He picked up his cell phone and sent a message to Bai Cai, . A dozen consecutive full stops, filling up the whole page. The Brother Cai next door was quite concerned. Theyd lost the game, and Wei Xiaos state had been worrying. Reasonably speaking, that shouldnt be the case. Hed been sitting next to Wei Xiao, and hed seen the tears that fell onto the back of their captains hand. How did he end up crying? Having known him for two or three years, Bai Cai couldnt imagine that Wei Xiao would cry. This brat wasnt afraid of the heavens or the earth. He was so strong that it seemed he would carry the sky if it fell, but it turned out that he actually had such a fragile side. Brother Cais heart felt terribly hot, but he didnt dare to say anything more. Hed known that Wei Xiao had attached a lot of importance to this competition, but theyd lost. Brother Cai was filled with self blame. When he returned back to his room, he didnt feel settled at all. He held onto his cell phone, thinking about whether to send Wei Xiao a message. He clicked open WeChat, but he didnt know what to say The Brother Vegetable who was twisted up into knots was then faced with a series of full stops. ??? Theyd only lost a competition, and it was just a competition during winter training. Had this kid already gone crazy? It wasnt that big of a deal! Brother Vegetable went on alert, ready to comfort the vulnerable and fragile little beast. How should he comfort him? Should he search up some chicken soup phrases first? Brother Vegetable was deeply troubled. Then, he saw Wei Xiao send over a series of expression packs. [hahahaha.jpg] [hehehehe.jpg] [aoaoaoao.jpg] [grinning with joy.jpg] [brother Im very happy are you happy.jpg] [cola with ice with lemon, three times the happiness.jpg] [unparalleled joy.jpg] [mature people dont write happiness on their faces, they all say it out loud!.jpg] Bai Cai: ??? He knocked out the words, Have you finally gone f*cking crazy. But he didnt dare to send them out. He was worried, frightened, and helpless. What if Wei Xiao had really gone crazy, what to do then! Wei Xiao sent over happy expression packs for a long time, but the other side didnt reply. He was unhappy, Are you asleep? Brother Cai looked at these words like hed just seen a savior, You are you okay His words were very careful, extremely tentative. He was afraid of stimulating him into a mental hospitals care. Wei Xiao saw that hed replied, and his desire to spill the beans burst forth, Not really. Brother Cais heart thumped. Wei Xiao typed out words as fast as lightning, Im too happy ahhhhh, too happy ahhhhh, I want to tie a rocket on myself and fly up into the sky, exploding into fireworks There would definitely be a line of text with the fireworksCCClose was Quiets boyfriend! Bai Cai: The trend of this conversation, damn it, should he call 120?! Wei Xiaos typing wasnt enough to convey his joy. He sent over a voice message, I cant tell you about this matter in detail, but you only need to know that Im very happy, Im very delighted, Im about to go up to the f*cking skies! The corner of Brother Cais lips twitched, and he couldnt help asking, Youre so happy about losing to Pro? Who had been the one crying just now! Were your tears falling because you were happy! Wei Xiao was surprised, Its just a game, winning and losing is very normal. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao only noticed that his Brother Cai didnt seem to be very happy after the fact. The very happy Wei Xiao thought it over, then comforted him sincerely and earnestly, Wake up, Old Bai, its just a winter training camp. How many days has our FTW been together for? To get the championship just like this? Wouldnt that have been too shameful for L&P and Pro? Oh, that Old Dog Yuan really doesnt need face, but if they lost to us after playing so seriously, would they even deserve to be Laozis opponents?! He sent over a whole slew of messages, and Bai Cai was dazed for a moment. He listened to the voice message that was several dozen seconds long, three times. He was very certain. Absolutely certain. Incomparably certain. That there was no haze in this guys voice. It was brighter than the sun at noon in midsummer. What depression, what sense of loss, what crying, it was as though Brother Cai had been blind! Bai Cai paused for a moment, then asked him, You dont feel bad? Wei Xiao: Whats there to feel bad about? God Kim is amazing, his prejudgment is at an immortal level, and his ultimate move positioning is perfect, he deserved to win! Brother Vegetable: Wei Xiao continued, Brother Cai, youre no good. How do you play in competitions with this psychological quality? The upcoming domestic competition and global competition will be real games. If youre down just from a winter training camp competition, how will you continue in the future? Bai Cai: Mother f*cker, I was f*cking worried about you, Im the real idiot! If youre completely damned fine, then why the hell were you crying. Bai Cai couldnt hold back anymore. Wei Xiao froze and felt a little embarrassed, Who cried?! Dont stay up so late and do more eye exercises. If you grow blind, youll have no choice but to retire. Bai Cais tone wasnt very good, What the hell is going on with you! Wei Xiao was brought back to the original topic, and his heart was once again smeared with honey, Secret. Brother Vegetable: ?????? Wei Xiao was delighted and happy, In short, its a good thing as big as the sky. I cant tell you now, but Ill tell you in the future! Bai Cai was curious, What is this all about? The last words that Wei Xiao sent over to him were, Ah, the captains finished showering. Byebye. These words were full of excitement. Brother Cai paused for a moment, then suddenly realized something. F*ck The most important event of ones life Could it be the two of them, tonight Brother Vegetable was dirty, so dirty that he was like a very dirty little train. After Lu Feng finished his shower, he wrapped his bathrobe tightly around his body, leaving only his slender neck exposed. Wei Xiao lost all self-control as soon as he saw him and leaned over to give him a peck on the mouth. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao was addicted to kissing, kissing him again and again, kissing until Lu Feng almost couldnt bear it anymore before saying, Im going to wash up. He ran off, and Lu Feng forcibly cooled down the fire in his chest. Wei Xiao was still young. He didnt know anything. He couldnt bully him. Lu Feng closed his eyes briefly, using the incomparable preciousness he felt towards him to suppress all his desires. Wei Xiao finished showering much faster than Lu Feng and soon came back out again. He was also wearing a hotel bathrobe, but it was loose on his body C the waist wasnt cinched tight, and the neckline was open, revealing the dip in his collarbone that appeared even more attractive when framed by the black satin. Lu Feng wanted to get up and help him tidy up his clothing. Wei Xiao waited until he came close, then kissed him on the mouth. After kissing him, he even said, Smells really good. Before, he didnt think that this shower gel smelled good. Now, however, he just felt that it was too fragrant. It was fresh and sweet, like a forest full of peach blossoms. Lu Feng finally couldnt bear it anymore. He pulled Wei Xiao over to sit on his legs, wrapped a hand around the back of his head, and kissed him for real. It wasnt a light touching of the lips, nor was it a shallow taste. It was a deep kiss that went deep into the mouth and swept through the soul. Wei Xiao was stunned, to the point where he forgot how to breathe. xiin: (ive also forgotten how to breathe) Chapter 88: Do you like it or not? How could kissing also be like this! No, this was what a real kiss was like! Wei Xiao was indeed a living 19 year old virgin, but he wasnt so innocent that he didnt know anything. Not to mention, hed glanced through the Gossip Emperors little posts a few times and knew the general outline. Knowing was one thing, but practical application was something else. Like kissing. He was already numb and tingling with the touch of their lips. Now His brain exploded, and his blood seemed to have turned into boiling hot water, setting his entire person on fire. He couldnt even describe the feeling; there was unspeakable stimulation, and he only felt dizzy and dazed and even a little faint. It wasnt an illusion, he was really dizzy. Lu Feng released him, then laughed quietly as he coaxed, Breathe. Wei Xiao: The tips of his ears were all red. Lu Feng gently stroked his back and said in a gentle voice, Breathe with your nose. Wei Xiao tried his best to press down a heart that wanted to jump out of his chest, quivering, Captain Hed originally been straddled over Lu Fengs legs, but now his entire body was soft and pasted against him. Lu Feng was really scared of him acting like this. They were clearly separated by two bathrobes, and clearly werent touching each other, but Wei Xiaos skin that was warm from the shower, his cheeks that were covered with a shy flush, his quivering voice, and that heated breath that came in gasps, all burned their way into his heart. Lu Feng took a deep breath and tried to set him upright, Its not early anymore, we should Wei Xiao buried his face in his neck. His face was too hot, and his voice was still thready, like a mosquito. However, his words were extremely bold, Want more. Lu Feng: ! Wei Xiaos mind was full of the kisses from just now. He just felt that it was too mysterious, too magical, too incredible. He was kissed until he was dizzy, fainting, dazed, but he still wanted more. Wanted more, even more, to the point where he didnt even know exactly how much he wanted. In short He really wanted it. Wei Xiao straightened up and looked eagerly at Lu Feng. Lu Feng stared at his clean face, his heart burning hotter. Wei Xiao bit his lower lip and said, The kisses from just now, I want more. BangCC If there really was a string in Lu Fengs mind, then it had snapped at this moment. He held Wei Xiao by the waist, got up, and put him down on the bed nearby. The sky suddenly seemed to whirl around, and Wei Xiao was a little dazed. Lu Feng placed his palms beside his ear, pressing one knee against the soft bed and looking down at him from above. Wei Xiao looked at him without any reservation in his gaze, Cap Lu Feng bowed his head and kissed his lips. Wei Xiaos arms came up around his neck, letting him kiss as wantonly as he liked. It was new the first time, but familiar by the second time. By the third time, Wei Xiaoxiao started to act up, Captain, do you like it? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao: The kiss just now, did you like it? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao asked persistently, Do you like it or not? Lu Feng: Like. Wei Xiao was satisfied, I like it too, I like it too much. It turns out that exchanging kisses with someone feels so good. Lu Feng closed his eyes briefly. Wei Xiao looked at him while lying on his back, Captain~! Lu Feng looked back at him, Sleep? Wei Xiao didnt blink at all as he looked at him, I cant sleep. Lu Feng couldnt sleep either. Not only was he unable to sleep, he was currently having an internal fight between his rationality and his basic nature. He wished that he could go to a land of ice and snow to calm down a bit. Lu Feng: Its one oclock. Wei Xiao didnt care, But I cant sleep His heart was pounding, and his eyes were closed, but it was like he was watching a live broadcast, as his brain was filled with Lu Feng-Captain-Close-Boyfriend and kissing. These keywords filled his mental screen like crazy, scrolling on and on until he didnt feel sleepy at all. Lu Feng couldnt afford to provoke him, so he could only try and change the topic, In that last wave in the competition tonight, were you attempting to brush out nine light arcs? It was either Glory or Close. Lu Feng understood him very well. Wei Xiaos attention was indeed successfully diverted, Yes. In that last wave of team fights against Pro, Wei Xiao had had such an idea. At the time, he, Old Bai, and Ning Zhehan had been up against the three people from Pro. In fact, the odds of winning werent good. The damage of the immortal warlock could be resisted in the late stages of the game, and Bai Cais light priest had no way to trap three top level players. On the other hand, Park Guizhis power thief had a strong control skill, Li Herans elemental shaman was amazing, and adding on Kim Sung-hyuns gold hunter, there were very few in the entire Glory professional circle who would dare to go up against them in a 3v3 fight. For Wei Xiao to choose to go up at that time, that decision had seemed a little rash. Lu Feng had killed two people, and hed created a wonderful opportunity for the FTW that was at a disadvantage. If Ning Zhehan was Xie He, Bai Cai was Yan Jiang, and Wei Xiao was Yuan Ze, then those three people from Pros side wouldve been thoroughly dead. Unfortunately, they werent. The gap between them was visible to the naked eye. Lu Feng had just wanted to change the topic and didnt want to make him unhappy, Your decision was correct, that wave of team battles shouldve been fought. From the gods perspective, that last wave of FTWs could have been called a sudden death battle. It was clear that their side had five people, but theyd been cleaned up by three people on the Pro side. Theyd lost rather awkwardly. But in fact, after a detailed analysis, viewers could understand that the team fight shouldve been fought. Wei Xiaos judgement hadnt been wrong. If theyd chosen to retreat, it would take at most five minutes for the gold hunter to become the overlord of the entire canyon. As the elemental shaman reached max level, it could build up its core tank gear. After its health volume increased dramatically, it would be able to toss out more totems. When faced with a gold hunter that was surrounded fully by elemental totems, forget Wei Xiao, even Closes shadow thief wouldnt think of trying to kill him. Lu Feng: You did the right thing. Wei Xiaos mouth shriveled in a pout, If it was you, the gold hunter would be dead. If it had been Lu Feng, he wouldve been able to brush out nine light arcs. Under the doubled damage, the elemental shaman wouldnt have enough health left to create a resurrection totem. If the gold hunter couldnt resurrect, it wouldve ended up as a corpse on the ground a long time ago. Lu Feng didnt answer. Wei Xiao seemed to understand what he meant, Fine, if you were the jungler, then we wouldnt even have had that opportunity. Thats right, this one and only opportunity had been created by Lu Feng on his death knight. If he was playing jungler, then who could kill two people from Pro in a 1v2 situation? Tang Chen couldnt do it. Wei Xiao couldnt either. There was only one Lu Feng. If he took care of the front, then he wouldnt be able to take care of the back. When his thoughts came to this point, Wei Xiao once again felt a little uncomfortable, Im still too weak. Lu Feng: Dont be anxious. The Wei Xiao whod been resurrected at full health wouldnt be knocked down by this kind of thing, Next time, Ill definitely make God Kim lay down on the ground and cry! The captain had said that he had a promising future ahead of him. When they went back to China, he would definitely train hard with the shadow thief. In the global competitions, he wouldnt miss any of these opportunities again! Lu Feng was relieved to see that he was in good spirits. Wei Xiao started up again, Captain, how about you teach me how to use the shadow thief? Lu Feng looked at him, How? Wei Xiao was full of energy, Hand in hand teaching, your left hand over my left hand, your right hand over my right hand, taking me to brush out a sky full of light arcs. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao cleared his throat, Fine, if you really do that with me, I might not be able to brush out a single light arc. Lu Feng really wanted to do him! Sleep. The great demon king turned over and didnt look at him anymore. Wei Xiao couldnt sleep. He was too excited today, and his mood had undergone so many ups and downs, so he didnt feel any sleepiness at all. After three seconds of silence, he spoke up again, Captain Who wouldve dared to think that this word could become a form of torture for Lu Feng? Lu Feng didnt make a sound and pretended to be asleep. Wei Xiao didnt believe that he could sleep just like that, When did you start to like me? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao spoke to himself as he liked, I started to like you from when I started going for morning runs with you thats not quite right, I think that I started liking you a long time ago Wei Xiao didnt feel sleepy at all, so he simply began to recall and go over his emotional diary. Since when did he start liking the captain? More than 10 days ago? Absolutely not. Hed liked the captain since a long time ago. How long ago? Maybe it was when he was alone, hiding in the internet cafe, and saw the shadow thief who held on all the way until the end in order to winCC The name Close was branded in his heart. He didnt even know who he was, or what kind of soul he was under this ID. Hed already become fascinated by him. Because that short scarlet blade had not only torn apart the hazy canyon, but also his hazy and difficult inner world. Hed given him a light, a direction. These words made even Wei Xiao, who was always thick-skinned, feel full of embarrassment after hed spoken them out loud. Lu Feng, on the other hand, felt like hed been stabbed by sweetness straight into his heart. It was so sweet that he even felt like there was sugar in his mouth. Wei Xiao then summed it up, Before, I was confused and wasted so much time. If it hadnt been for Captain Lis injury that scared me awake, I dont know how long I wouldve remained so silly for. The taste of sugar in Lu Fengs chest seemed to recede slightly, Hm? Wei Xiao: You dont know this, but I had a dream at the time, and dreamed that your arm was broken, and you couldnt hold a mouse. I woke up covered in cold sweat, I was scared to death! Lu Feng: . Because he was facing his back, Wei Xiao couldnt see Lu Fengs expression. He still had that lingering fear in his heart as he said, Dont worry, Grandma said that dreams are contrary, so youll be healthy and fit, and youll be able to do it until youre 80 years old! Lu Fengs back that was facing him shifted, and he turned to look at him. The two people looked at each other, and Wei Xiaos heart quivered inexplicably. Lu Feng looked at him for a while, then smiled and said, Do it until Im 80? Wei Xiao: ! That little inexplicable bit of worry that Wei Xiao had flew away immediately. His face heated up, Captain, I suspect that youre Lu Feng: No need to suspect, Im really acting like a rogue. Wei Xiao: After saying a lot of provoking things, there would always be a time when it came back to bite him. It was rare that Wei Xiaoxiao didnt pick up the thread of the conversation. Lu Feng lay down flat on his back and looked up at the ceiling, I dont know when I started to like you. Wei Xiaos ears perked up, Certainly not for as long as I have! Lu Feng glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes and said meaningfully, But I realized it before you. Wei Xiao blinked, then became energetic again, Could it be during the time when I first joined the team? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao was surprised, It cant be the pentakill is yours, and you belong to me, right? Lu Feng looked at him, Youre really glib with those words. Wei Xiaos radar sent him a warning, and his desire for survival burst forth, Ive only ever said it to you! Lu Feng exposed him, You didnt know that I was LU at the time. Wei Xiao: Wonderful, a perfect screw up! Lu Feng turned over and didnt look at him anymore. Wei Xiao hastened to explain, You see, I didnt know who you were at the time, but I already felt good about you. Lu Feng: Oh. Wei Xiao continued to coax him, I even regarded you as a girlfriend! The corner of Lu Fengs lips curved slightly. Wei Xiao didnt hesitate to continue blackening himself to coax the captain, I even regarded you as a girlfriend twice! To be honest, Ive only had two gossip girlfriends in my life, and they were both you. Lu Feng didnt dare to listen any further, Sleep. Wei Xiao was delighted as he finished his words, Youre my only boyfriend, too. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiaos mouth couldnt be stopped, What about you? Lu Feng paused. Just when Wei Xiao thought that he wouldnt say it, Lu Feng spoke, Me too. Although Wei Xiao had expected this, when Lu Feng really said it, he was still so happy that there were flowers blooming in his heart. He cleared his throat, Youre the first person Ive ever liked. Lu Feng: Me too. Ill only like you in the future. Mm. Captain, why dont you say me too? For things in the future, actions speak louder than words. xiin C For things in the future, actions speak louder than words. omg Lu Feng, you dont speak much, but when you do *swoon* Chapter 89: 520 xiin: footnote for the title C 520 sounds like i love you in Chinese The future was uncertain. Rather than saying anything, it was better to really and truly spend time and heart on this like. Wei Xiao was soon going to explode from his captains sweetness, Cough, I lose. Hed actually lost out to his boyfriend when it came to words of love. Um Little Lunatic Weis desire to win flared up, and he immediately said, In that case, Im different! Lu Feng didnt look at him, but he could imagine Wei Xiaos current appearance, How? Wei Xiao spoke proudly, For things in the future, Ill use actions and words! Lu Feng laughed quietly, Alright. If you still dont sleep, the skys going to turn bright. In fact, Wei Xiao was a little tired, and his eyelids were fighting against him, but he didnt want to sleep. He couldnt bear to go to sleep. He asked again, Captain, what do you like about me? Only Wei Xiao could ask these words without embarrassment and even sound so delighted about it. Lu Feng replied, I dont know. Wei Xiao was no longer happy. He asked further, You dont know? Mm. Lu Feng looked at the curtains hanging over the window on the other side of the room, Theres too much. A lot, there was really too much. Two years ago, and two years later, Wei Xiaos every move and action was so impactful, taking over his entire field of vision. Wei Xiaos appearance had allowed Lu Feng to see infinite energy and infinite hope. Wei Xiao said that, two years ago, the shadow thief in the canyon had given him a light in the darkness. How could he not have also seen a light from Wei Xiaos body? Lu Feng had fallen for Wei Xiao at first sight, but it was also a love that had developed over time. Wei Xiao was worthy of being a Close translation machine and actually understood what he meant. He was happy again, Is it that you like too many things about me, so you dont know? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao became a little modest, There arent that many things worth liking about me. Lu Feng: There are. It was just a simple sentence, but it was enough to make the shameless Little Lunatic Weis face turn red. It was over, it was over. Hed really been well and truly won over by his captain. In the future, he would definitely be henpecked, the type that could never recover. Wei Xiao fell quiet for a while, but he couldnt hold back the thumping of his little heart, Since you started to like me so early on, why did you never tell me? If hed said it earlier, theyd have kissed hundreds and thousands of times by now! With this thought, Wei Xiao felt like hed missed out on a billion dollars. Lu Feng was silent. The less he spoke, the more Wei Xiao wanted to know. He begged, This is the last question, well sleep after youve answered. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao coaxed him, Really, Im a puppy if I still dont sleep after that! He even made a little woof sound in advance. Lu Feng sighed lightly and turned to look at him, Youre still young. Wei Xiao was stunned. Lu Feng leaned against the white pillow, his gaze even warmer than the soft lighting from the floor lamp, I didnt say it, because I wanted to give you more. In fact, Wei Xiao didnt really understand, but he could feel the sense of being held in the palm of Lu Fengs hand, being cared for like a treasure. In a flash, the tip of his nose grew a little sour. Lu Feng continued, Friendship, affection, love, I want to give all of that to you. If hed said it earlier, this passionate love would overwhelm everything else. Wei Xiaos heart seemed to have been struck hard by something, but the tiny pain swiftly spread out into a tingly numbness that covered his whole body. It was like seeing the most beautiful scene in the world while floating in the clouds, so even if he fell to pieces later, there would be no regret. He couldnt help it. Wei Xiao got up from bed and drilled into Lu Fengs quilt. Lu Feng: Wei Xiaos pair of sparkling eyes were filled with Lu FengCC The indifferent Lu Feng, the alienated Lu Feng, the seemingly unfeeling Lu Feng was actually an incomparably soft and gentle Lu Feng. Wei Xiao wanted to kiss him, wanted to kiss him hard. He wanted to let him feel the sweetness that was welling up from the bottom of his heart and squeezing its way onto his tongue. Without waiting for him to move, Lu Feng had tilted his head and kissed him. Wei Xiao responded, his movements clumsy but enthusiastic. When the two of them separated, Lu Fengs voice was a little hoarse as he spoke in his ear, Little Xiao. Wei Xiaos entire body felt like itd been shocked by electricity. He trembled, Mm Lu Feng sighed lightly, Its only the first day. The first day of their confession, the first day theyd mutually shared their feelings, the first day theyd become boyfriends. It wasnt even a full day yet. Wei Xiao didnt understand. Until he felt a certain hard something. Wei Xiao: !!! Lu Fengs pair of black eyes seemed to be like a burning, raging wasteland, Can we sleep now? One sentence, four words. He said it in a tone filled with patience and restraint. If Wei Xiao still didnt understand, then he really wouldnt be human. Although he didnt act like a human all year round, he Ahhhh, it was too soon; good things needed preparation time. Such an important thing, there had to be a sense of ceremony. Wei Xiaos face was thoroughly red. He didnt dare to look at Lu Feng, Sleeping. Lu Feng released him. Wei Xiao ran off back to his own bed and wrapped himself up like a silkworm cocoon. Goodnight He wanted to finish with captain, but his mouth couldnt help but act up again, Boyfriend. After that, he quickly closed his eyes. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao spoke from beneath his quilt, I also want a goodnight Lu Feng: Sleep. Wei Xiao exposed his eyes, wide and aggrieved. Lu Feng pulled aside the quilt and got out of bed. Wei Xiao was frightened and hid himself in the quilt again until he heard the sound of footsteps. He poked his head out and found that the captain had gone to the bathroom. Wei Xiao: He hid in the quilt again, his heart pounding, his face burning, his mouth muttering, Calm down, calm down, Wei Xiao, please calm down. Its just the first day, you cant think about such beastly things! The sound of water running came from the bathroom. Wei Xiao quietly exposed his face in order to breathe. Hed originally been on his side facing Lu Feng, but there was nobody in the bed at this time, so he turned around and faced the dim light coming from the bathroom. The privacy setup in the standard hotel rooms were done very well. From where he was, nothing could be seen but the flow of small, raindrop-like drops of water. Wei Xiao watched, listened, and thought Finally, weariness swept over him, and his eyes closed. When Lu Feng came out, he was met with the sight of a sleeping Wei Xiaoxiao. Wei Xiao really was young. His attitude towards feelings and emotion was especially immature. So young that he could express his feelings without reservation, like a child, and he was also like a child in that he didnt understand the desires of adults. Lu Feng liked him. Liked all of him. From small to large, Lu Feng cherished everything around him. His bewildered and helpless childhood, his fallen and powerless youth, all the way until he had the ability to stand independently. He cherished all the good things he encountered, even if it was fleeting. Lu Feng swept aside the black hair over Wei Xiaos forehead and pressed a kiss onto his clean forehead. No desire, only love. As it turned out, the great demon king couldnt sleep that night. It was no use being as steady as a rock. Not only that, there was still more to come. Wei Xiao had fallen asleep, and he slept deeply, his dreams filled with colorful joy. And then He ended up sleepwalking. It made sense when he thought about it. Theyd played a full day of competition games requiring high concentration levels, and then theyd stayed up so late. Hed experienced so many emotional ups and downs, and it wouldve been more strange if he didnt sleepwalk. Lu Feng had just fallen asleep when he felt that his quilt had been lifted up. His arm sank a little, and something wrapped around his waist and held on tight. He opened his eyes and wasnt surprised to see Wei Xiao with his head pillowed on his arm and his entire person pasted up against him. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao wasnt on guard at all and even rubbed against his arm with his pale cheek. Lu Feng breathed in, then held Wei Xiao closer. Sleep, then. It was enough as long as he could have good dreams. When Wei Xiao woke up, he discovered that hed changed beds. At this moment, at this time, Brother Xiao was very flustered! Oh shit Laozi hadnt done anything beast-like, had he! Being impatient and unable to hold back on the first day of love, Wei Xiao wasnt that kind of beast. Oh, if hed really done something, he would go and chop Brother Vegetable up by hand. It was all Brother Vegetables fault for calling him a beast, hed called him a beast so much that hed really turned into one! Brother Vegetable, who was in the room next door, Achoo! Such a big sneeze. Who was cursing daddy so early in the morning. Wei Xiao checked himself over and found that he was still dressed properly, and there were no strange marks on the bed. It should be that nothing happened. Wei Xiao was relievedCCif hed become lovelorn on the first day of their relationship, he would die. When he thought about falling in love, Wei Xiao couldnt hold down the corners of his lips again. Ahhhhh. His first love, his Close, his boyfriend! Wei Xiao rolled around a few times on Lu Fengs bed, his heart filled with so much joy that it was creating soap bubbles. It was the so-called one day apart feels like three autumns. Wei Xiao didnt see his boyfriend when he woke up, and he already missed him very much. It was already past 11 oclock. Hed missed the morning run, but he figured that the captain also hadnt gone on his morning run. The winter training camp was over, and they would be making their way home soon. There must be a lot of things to attend to. FTWs flight tickets were scheduled for around 3PM in the afternoon, so there was no hurry. He dawdled as he got out of bed; there was enough time to eat lunch before they headed to the airport. Wei Xiao wrapped himself up in the quilt, lost in his own happiness for a while, then took out his cell phone to send a message to Lu Feng. What should he say? The first WeChat message after formally establishing a relationship. It had to be grand. Wei Xiao edited the message for a long time, then finally sent it out in satisfaction. Lu Feng was enduring a migraine in order to deal with work when his phone beeped. Xiang Liu peeked at it. Lu Feng picked up his cell phone and saw the message that Wei Xiaoxiao had sent overCC Captain! I like you I like you I like you (517 more repeats are omitted here, in case the author gets killed in the comments). Lu Feng: . The dutiful and conscientious Brother Liu who was deeply immersed in supporting FTW was shocked. Holy shit! Was the sun coming out from the West? The great demon king could smile like this? Should he take a photo?! With this photo in place, FTWs official blog traffic would be guaranteed! Wei Xiao then sent another message, Its not copy pasted, hey, every I like you was typed out by hand. Hed typed out 520, he was really worthy of being himself! Lu Feng looked at it and frowned, then called him back directly. Wei Xiao picked up in one second, Captain~! Lu Fengs heart softened again, Youre awake? Wei Xiao: I just opened my eyes and missed you. Lu Feng: . He got up and avoided Xiang Liu, speaking in a low voice, Stop fooling around. Wei Xiao was really muddled, Ah? He was still in the room and hadnt gone out C how could he fool around? Lu Feng said, Using your cell phone to type so many words, arent your fingers tired? Wei Xiao got it, and the corner of his lips curved up again. Lu Feng: Cherish your fingers, dont recklessly burden them. Thinking about Wei Xiao with his head bowed as he tapped out so many words, he not only felt heartache for his fingers, but also for his spine. Professional players needed to take care of their bodies even more so than ordinary people if they wanted to play for a long time. Wei Xiaos heart felt incredibly sweet, and his voice was soft, In that case, I wont type next time. Lu Fengs heart missed the first half a beat. Wei Xiao: Ill say it to you. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao: Captain, I like you. Lu Feng lowered his voice, Theres someone over here. Ill see you soon. Wei Xiao didnt bother him any further, I want a morning kiss later. Lu Feng: ! He wasnt in the mood to deal with business. He just wanted to go back to the room. Fortunately, someone knocked on the door on Wei Xiaos side, It seems that Brother Cais here. Im hanging up first. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao went on to remind him, You agreed, okay. Lu Feng: Okay. Wei Xiao was happy, See you soon. Lu Fengs heart was filled with see you soon. After hanging up the phone, Xiang Liu looked at his bosss appearance, and his heart was drumming in his chest: This conversation, this tone, this expression it was really as if he had been coaxing a girlfriend! However, as early as when Brother Liu saw who the caller was, hed already grown very calm. It was Wei Xiaoxiao. This was a normal occurrence; after seeing it often, it was no longer strange. Wei Xiao opened the door for Brother Cai. Brother Cai glanced at him and was surprised, Whats the matter with you? Wei Xiao: Ah? Brother Cai choked. He didnt dare to say that he looked like spring had come. He was suddenly a little afraid of stepping into the room. Although his brain supplied him with little trains containing Wei Xiao and the Captain every day, these two Didnt really have anything going on between them, right?! Wei Xiaos heart felt like it was being scratched by a cats paw. He badly wished that he could share his joy with his good brother, but he was also filled with scruples and didnt dare to say more. The environment in the e-sports circles was still very complicated. Not to mention homosexuality, even heterosexual relationships could be hung up on the walls and hammered by the fans. Was the regular season a grand slam? Had they won all the playoffs? Had they taken home the world cup? Without any achievements, to hell with being in a relationship. Wei Xiao could only bear with it. For the captain, for FTW, for the Glory circle, his life was too difficult! Brother Cai poked his head in. Wei Xiao said, The captain went off to work a long time ago. Bai Cai let out a breath of relief, Cough, wanna eat? Wei Xiao agreed, Lets go. Why was his first meal after entering a relationship going to be shared with a vegetable? Where was his boyfriend! Fortunately, Brother Vegetable couldnt read minds. If he knew what this beast was thinking, he would surely vomit blood. Laozi doesnt want to eat with you, either! You asshole who puts love over bros! Who couldve known that just as they got to the elevator, they would run into Lu Feng. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up. Brother Cai: Good morning, captain. Lu Fengs gaze moved away from Wei Xiaos body and he answered, Morning. The elevator arrived. Brother Cai stepped in first, Old Wei? Why hadnt he come in. Wei Xiao tugged on Lu Fengs arm, not letting him step into the elevator. You go down first. The captain and I will wait a bit. Brother Cai looked at the empty elevator, his head covered in question marks, ??? Wei Xiao said randomly, I didnt run in the morning. Well take the stairs. Brother Cai was even more confused. At this time, it was unknown which floor pressed the button for the elevator, causing the elevator doors to close and mercilessly take Brother Cai away. There was nobody else around. Wei Xiao turned around and pecked Lu Feng on the face. Lu Feng caught him by the wrist and pulled him behind the stairway door. Wei Xiaos back was pasted against the wall, gasping for breath from his kisses, Someone might come over. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao pulled him closer by the collar, How exciting. Lu Feng blocked his fearless mouth that wasnt even afraid of heaven. xiin: *tossing out more sugar* Chapter 90: Eloped~ Wei Xiaos learning ability wasnt exaggerated. He learned everything quickly, including this. At first, he only knew to peck like a chicken nibbling at rice, but now, not only could he breathe through his nose, he even knew to tilt his head back and offer himself up. The two of them kissed wantonly in the narrow corner. Theyd clearly only been separated for a short time, and theyd clearly been sleeping in each others arms last night, and they were clearly so close to each other now. But there was always the feeling that it wasnt enough. Desire invaded their bodies, enveloping their souls. Lu Feng let him go first, You must be hungry. Wei Xiao: Nope. He didnt want to go, he wanted to stay here a little longer. Gurgle His stomach betrayed him. Lu Feng smiled and looked at him. Wei Xiao: This stomach of his had failed him! The hand Lu Feng had wrapped around his wrist slid down, following his palm and twining their fingers together. Enough, go eat first. Im also hungry. This last sentence was worth a thousand words. Wei Xiao immediately agreed, Okay! The captain was hungry, so they should quickly go and eat. He just didnt know if there was celery in the restaurant or not. The two of them were just about to step out when they heard a ding from outside. It was the crisp crackle of a lighter. Someone was there! The Wei Xiao whod been extremely bold as they had snuck around started feeling guilty! It had been exciting just now, but it wouldnt be good if they ran into someone. The matter of coming out of the closet was something that should be considered from a long term perspective. Lu Feng pulled him over, and the two of them hid behind the door. This was a smoking area. The footsteps came to a stop, and a mans familiar soft voice rang out, Want one? No. Captain Lis not here. I didnt quit smoking because of him. Oh~ This elongated tone was undoubtedly Yuan Ze, and the other voice in the conversation was also very recognizable. The one with the slightly strange Chinese pronunciation was Kim Sung-hyun. It turned out to be the two of them. Wei Xiao, whod originally been hiding, suddenly had the impulse to rush out. Regardless of how the Team of Gods had come to an end, both of these people were extremely important to Close. Wei Xiao wanted to tell themCC Close had a boyfriend now! Do you guys want to know who it is! They were both as far as in the sky, and as near as right in front of you! Yes, thats right, its me! Oh, that wasnt a very good idea. Wei Xiao soon changed his mind again. Hed lost to Yuan Ze not long ago, and lost to Kim Sung-hyun recently. Saying such a thing now didnt seem to carry much impact. Hed wait. When they met again in the global competitions, hed say it once for every time they won. Hed make sure that they remembered it deeply! The more Wei Xiao thought about it, the more energetic he grew. He pulled his captain even closer, so that the two of them were stuck close together, hiding behind the door. Lu Feng: . No matter how high Captain Lus IQ was, he couldnt see through the thoughts of the person in his arms. The outside two chatted casually. The relationship between Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun was really good. During their time at FTW, Kim Sung-hyun had been alone and helpless and had really respected Yuan Ze as an elder, even if this elder was very unreliable. Kim Sung-hyun had been even more good looking when he was 17 to 18 than he was now. At the time, his baby fat hadnt yet retreated. He had a sharp little melon face and a tear-shaped mole, looking just like a leading actor in a Korean drama, the type that was campus-themed. With his looks, his achievements, and his strength, Kim Sung-hyun naturally attracted countless fans. Fame was a double edged sword. If there were those who loved him, then there were naturally those who were jealous. In his early years, Kim Sung-hyun suffered a lot of hidden losses while living in a foreign country. Fortunately, Yuan Ze had protected him, guided him, taught him Mandarin, and helped him integrate into FTW. With this kind of relationship in place, even if theyd been separated for many years, they still regarded each other as close brothers. Yuan Ze was a longtime smoker. If he was ever separated from his cigarettes, he could easily enact dying on the spot. With a cigarette hanging from the edge of his lips, he asked Kim Sung-hyun, Has Captain Li recovered? This question was quite pointed. Captain Lis hand injury had clearly recovered. Hed played well in yesterdays game, and definitely wouldnt have gone up to play while he was still injured. Yuan Ze had seen it clearly, yet he was still asking; his words obviously carried some deeper meaning. Kim Sung-hyun understood what he meant and answered vaguely, Mm. Yuan Ze laughed briefly, Youre really Kim Sung-hyun looked at him, If you were him, I also wouldnt set you aside and not worry about you. Yuan Ze stilled briefly, then laughed lowly, Shit. Kim Sung-hyun seemed to have been choked by the smell of smoke. He said disdainfully, Smoke a little less. Yuan Ze sighed, This tone of voice is really like Close. When he heard his captains name, Wei Xiao looked up at Lu Feng and blinked. Lu Fengs index finger came up to make a gesture on his lips. Wei Xiaos eyes flashed slightly, and he kissed his fingerCCthe one that was placed over his lips. Lu Feng: . If it wasnt for the fact that there was someone outside, Lu Feng Well, he could only kiss him. Kim Sung-hyun: Besides Close, who else would care about whether your lungs are black or red. Yuan Ze insisted stubbornly, He just hates the smell of smoke. Kim Sung-hyun wasnt polite at all, He also hates you. Yuan Ze tsked. Kim Sung-hyun was obviously in a better mood than hed been a few days ago. Perhaps it was because theyd won the winter training camp, or perhaps because of Li Herans seriousness, or perhaps it was even because he could see that his old friends were doing better and better. Yuan Ze listened to him for once and put out the cigarette, FTW is exceptional this year. Kim Sung-hyun: Still tender. Tender? Yuan Ze laughed, Even before the domestic competition ends, you wont be able to stop that boy anymore. He didnt say his name and just used a pronoun, but everyone knew who he was referring to. Wei Xiao pointed to himself, his eyes speaking for him: Old Dog Yuan was talking about him! Lu Feng: . He would be killed by Wei Xiaos cuteness sooner or later. Kim Sung-hyun paused briefly, then analyzed calmly and objectively, The current FTW is still too dependent on Close. Yuan Ze: Thats true. Kim Sung-hyun: Quiets really excellent, but if he remains under Closes protection, he wont be able to grow up. Yuan Ze paused, then actually spoke up for Wei Xiao, Not necessarily. Close has changed a lot. Kim Sung-hyun: We all know what happens to Close once the team is getting along well and they encounter a strong opponent. Yuan Ze didnt say anything. Kim Sung-hyun: To tell you the truth, I feel that in the whole of Glory, the only person who can let Close act recklessly is Captain Yan. Yuan Zes voice was light, his tone ironic, Is there anyone God Yan cant cooperate with? Kim Sung-hyun: Thats true. Yan JiangCCFTWs former team captain, the perfect support player, a man who stood in the most vulnerable position while becoming the absolute core. In fact, the old FTW could win the doubles championship. They had the potential to absolutely crush their opponents and win with pure strength alone. It was very simple. They would win as long as Yan Jiang signed up for the competition. As for who the other person was, it didnt even matter. Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He, Yuan Ze, or even Close, who was the most difficult to cooperate with. All of them could do it. Yuan Ze couldnt cooperate with Close, and Kim Sung-hyun and Xie He also had no way to play doubles with Close. Only Yan Jiang could. Unfortunately Nobody would mention this matter. Because Yan Jiang never took part in the singles or doubles competitions. Not just the players, even the top management of the club wouldnt bring this up. If the management pressured him, Yan Jiang would participate. But what was the use of that? He could play in a way where he made no mistakes, play as hard as he could and assist wholeheartedly, but they wouldnt win. No faults could be picked up, and there was no way to say that he wasnt trying; his behavior would be perfect. It was just that theyd lose. This was too fierce. It was so fierce that nobody could do anything about it. So, FTW was utterly helpless and gave up the doubles. Yuan Ze had dared to say if someone can cooperate with Close, Ill go and eat shit live because there was an underlying reason for it. In the whole Glory circle worldwide, there was just one Yan Jiang. Yan Jiang didnt play the doubles competition. So, if you wanted him to eat shit, there was no way it would happen. It could be seen that Yuan Ze really favored Wei Xiao. The implicit and explicit content of his words were filled with recognition, Even if hes not as good as Yan Jiang, Quiet is already the next best candidate. Kim Sung-hyun nodded, Yes. Yuan Ze: In short, this years FTW wont be bad. Kim Sung-hyun looked at him, What about L&P? Yuan Ze laughed, What are you thinking? Would I lose to Yan Jiang again? Last years championship winner was Y1, which was Yan Jiangs team. L&P had been the runners-up. Kim Sung-hyun: Its time to switch it up. You can lose to Pro now. Yuan Ze: Dream on. Kim Sung-hyun was too lazy to continue sparring with him verbally. He asked, Will you take part in the singles competition this year? Yuan Ze: Yes. Kim Sung-hyun smiled, Great. Lets see who is number one in Glory. For several years in a row, Close had been the only one from the Team of Gods to sign up for the singles. This year, Kim Sung-hyun and Yuan Ze would both join too. The real number one in the world. Who would it be? This was something that they couldnt establish while they were at FTW. Now, there was an opportunity to do so. Lu Feng and Wei Xiao didnt come out until the two of them had walked off. Wei Xiao hadnt meant to eavesdrop, but hed heard it all clearly. In particular, Kim Sung-hyuns words had stabbed him in the heartCCTo tell you the truth, I feel that in the whole of Glory, the only person who can let Close act recklessly is Captain Yan. Wei Xiao couldnt stand it. He asked directly, Captain, is Yan Jiang so strong? He was definitely strong, but exactly how strong was he to let Close act recklessly and not have to worry about anybody? Thats right, Wei Xiao was jealous. This sentence was enough to pickle him in a whole tub of vinegar! Lu Feng rubbed his hair, Its not that exaggerated. Wei Xiao: Listening to Captain Yuan and God Kims meaning, youve always been holding back when you fight, havent you? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiaos heart leapt up, If you let go, we wont be able to keep up, is that right?! Lu Feng shook his head, 5v5 is a team competition. Good cooperation is more important than individual excellence. This was a truth that Wei Xiao understood, but he still didnt feel comfortable in his heart, Im still too weak. Lu Feng was distressed. He held his hand and said, Yan Jiang isnt strong. Wei Xiao didnt believe him, Youre just trying to coax me. Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun had already said all those things. How could he not be strong! Whats more, it wasnt as though Wei Xiao hadnt watched the world cup. Y1 was so strong that it made peoples scalps feel numb. Lu Feng said in a soft voice, Yan Jiang just understands people very well. Wei Xiao was stunned. Lu Feng said, He understands the players, so he can cooperate with them. Wei Xiao: He understands you very well. Lu Feng: He understands everyone he wants to understand well. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng was about to continue comforting him, but Wei Xiao suddenly spoke up, Then, I wont lose to him! Lu Feng could see the unabashed warmth and enthusiasm in his eyes. Wei Xiao: Ill definitely become the person who knows you best. Yan Jiang might understand a lot of people, but I just want to understand you! Lu Feng: . Anyone who heard this kind of thing would feel like their heart was being stuffed full of soft marshmallows, sweet and fluffy. Wei Xiao Lu Feng called out to him in a low voice. Wei Xiao: Hm? Lu Feng kissed him. Other than this, he really didnt know how else to convey the deep love he felt for him. In the restaurant, the lonely Brother Cai ate six Alaskan king crab legs, half of an Australian lobster, and half a plate of sea urchin sashimi He sent out a Weibo post while he was at it, Although Im lonely, Im full. Replies burst out instantly, Brother Cai, wheres God Lu! Darling vegetable, wheres your captain? God Bai, wheres your jungler king? Brother Cai also wanted to know where his captain and jungler king had gone. Theyd clearly been going downstairs together and had waited for the elevator together. How did it eventually turn into him walking on alone! Their hotel rooms were on the fifth floor. It had been such a long time since then, so they shouldve arrived even if it was 500 flights of stairs! Bai Cai replied to a fan, I also dont know where they went. Maybe theyve eloped. xiin: Bai Cai, you dont even know how right you are Chapter 91: Did he have to go so crazy so early in the morning?! A stone stirred up a thousand waves. The comments were all excitedCC Elopement is really 6666. Feeling heartache for my vegetable. Brother Vegetables green again, and green twice over. Sure enough, as long as one has enough CPs, they will have enough green on their heads that horses can run on it. Because Bai Cai was a nice professional player who indulged his fans, he had many cute girls amongst his fans. These girls liked to pair him up with people every day. Brother Cai was the type of person who could run the Gossip Emperor account. How could this kind of thing bother him? His character set up was that of a zen youth who let the girls play as they liked. It was all fine as long as it brought traffic. He was a big adult, so what did he need moral integrity for? Bai Cai spent a bit of time on Weibo and finally managed to wait until the elopement team showed up. Wei Xiao had originally been smiling like a fox, but he stopped smiling when he saw Brother Cai. Youre not done eating? Brother Cai: Do you really not feel embarrassed when disdaining me! Wei Xiao really was disdainful, Its been over half an hour. Are you still eating? If it wasnt for the fact that Brother Cai was intimidated by the captain, he wouldve snarked back long ago: Dont you feel embarrassed saying that about me? What were you up to for the past half an hour?! Bai Cai simply ignored Wei Xiao, Captain, sit. Ill go get you guys some delicious food. Wei Xiao: The captain wants celery, and I want watermelon. Bai Cai: Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao was amused and said to Lu Feng, The foods we like to eat both have the color green in them. Were really predestined. As long as he wanted to find sugar, it could be found everywhere. Brother Cai had seen this too often and no longer found it strange. He was already tired of listening to this beasts cruel and heartless words. He wasnt going to take something so pointless seriously. On the contrary, Wei Xiao felt a little guilty after saying this. He snuck a glance at Bai Cai, discovered that he didnt seem bothered, then whispered quietly to Lu Feng, Brother Cais really oblivious. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao took advantage of how nobody was around to secretly wrap his little pinky around Lu Fengs hand. Lu Feng turned his hand to hold onto Wei Xiaos entire hand. Wei Xiao was delighted, In a bit, Ill drive Brother Cai away. It was a private world for two. What did they need a vegetable light bulb for? Bai Cai didnt know that thorough plans had already been made for him and was still earnestly waiting for the chef to finish cutting crab legs. After preparing a whole pile of food, Brother Cai went back and discovered that the captain and Wei Xiao were sitting together, next to each other very close together. Brother Cai complained in his heart: The two of you act more like a couple than a real couple; even the Gossip Emperor wouldnt dare to write a scene like this! As soon as Bai Cai came back, Wei Xiao wanted to pull his hand out from beneath the table. Who couldve known that Lu Feng would hold it tight and not let go? Wei Xiao: ! He chuckled, trying to suppress the numb itchiness on the tip of his heart as he spoke to Brother Cai, Old Bai, are you still eating? Brother Cai: ??? Why are you laughing so brilliantly! Wei Xiao used his thumb to scratch Lu Feng lightly, but the words from his mouth were quite calm. Dont eat so much. You dont even like to exercise. Whatll you do if you eat so much you become a fatty when you go back? How will you be a pampered little wife then? Brother Cais tone wasnt pleasant, None of your business, Laozi doesnt get fat from eating! Then, he realized that there was a pit in front of him, Screw your daddys little wife, Im your God Bai! Wei Xiao coaxed him, Okay, okay, okay, God Bai, go back if youve eaten enough. Brother Cai looked at him suspiciously, Are you trying to drive me away? Wei Xiao: Nah. Brother Cai: Youre clearly Wei Xiao spoke frankly, Im clearly driving you away. Brother Cai: F*ck! The corners of Lu Fengs lips curved up, and he released Wei Xiaos hand, Eat. Wei Xiao immediately forgot about Brother Cai. He smiled at Lu Feng, Okay~ The end note of this sentence seemed to float up. The corner of Brother Cais lips twitched. Did he have to go so crazy so early in the morning?! Who exactly was the little wife here?! Bai Cai felt redundant and understood that it would be better to leave first. He said goodbye to Lu Feng, then turned to leave. Wei Xiao continued, Brother Cai, whats up with you? Do you only care about the captain? Why didnt you say goodbye to me? Bai Cai stumbled, and he left so quickly he practically flew away. Wei Xiao was happy after driving him away, but he still insisted on sighing, Its not easy to keep a son by ones side after they grow up. Brother Cai used to respect me very much. Lu Feng flicked his forehead lightly, Enough, eat. Wei Xiao looked around and saw that nobody was around, so he grew bold again, Ah He opened his mouth, demanding to be fed. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao even had the nerve to say, Come on, hurry up, someone will come over soon. How could Lu Feng move? Just then, the sound of conversation drifted over as someone headed their way with a plate of food. Wei Xiao immediately sat up straight and behaved properly. Lu Feng was relieved. Wei Xiao muttered quietly, I wouldve gone back to the guest room to eat if Id known it would be like this. Lu Fengs hands, which were holding his fork and knife, paused. His heart was filled with both happiness and regret. Fortunately, they werent in the guest room, otherwise, it would be difficult to determine what exactly theyd be eating; his regret was also because they werent eating in the guest room, because compared to eating food Although the dining area was very large, and each table was separated from each other, Brother Cai had chosen a booth in order to have some privacy. However, it was still an open restaurant. Small movements wouldnt be noticed, but large ones were too risky. Wei Xiao found the celery at a glance and picked up a piece with his chopsticks, Captain, how can you enjoy eating this As he spoke, he put the celery into his own mouth, wanting to try it and see exactly how bad tasting this thing that his captain liked was. Celery was something that those who liked it would love it, and those who disliked it would find it nastier than medicine. Wei Xiao was poisoned by the celery, Urgh Lu Feng handed him a glass of warm water, Dont eat it if you dont like it. Wei Xiao drank a gulp of water and said, Its not that bad. Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiaos eyes curved as he smiled at him, When Im with you, everything tastes sweet. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao plucked up the courage to pick up another piece of celery, planning to make himself get used to it. In the future, if he wanted to stay with the captain forever, he had to get used to eating this kind of vegetable. But who couldve known that just as he was about to eat it, Lu Feng said a few words, Me too. Wei Xiao stilled briefly. Lu Feng added, Anything you give me tastes delicious. Wei Xiao felt like hed been struck by lightning. He understood instantly. You dont like celery? Mm. You ate it because I held it up to your mouth? Yes. I asked you on Weibo if it was tasty? So you F*ck! What else couldnt be understood? At the time, the captain already liked him. How could he refuse to eat the food that the person he liked sent up to his mouth? Wei Xiao had asked him if it was delicious or not, so how could he say that it didnt taste good? In an instant, Wei Xiaos heart felt both sweet and astringent. The sweetness was: Ahhhhh how could the captain be so good, he was too good! The astringency was: How could he be so stupid, making the captain eat so much celery he didnt even like to eat! Wei Xiao was annoyed at himself, I messed up. He even said that he wanted to understand the captain, but as a result, he didnt even know what he liked to eat. Lu Feng couldnt bear to see him downcast and said, Im very happy. Wei Xiao looked up at him, How can you be happy eating something you dont like? The captain was really too good at coaxing him. Lu Feng dropped his gaze and said lightly, Its rare for people to care about me like this. His words made Wei Xiaos heart flutter and tremble. Lu Feng wasnt coaxing him. Each word and sentence was from the heart, and it wasnt easy for him to say them out loud. Without mentioning his childhood, it had taken Lu Feng a very long time to realize that interactions between people werent always malicious. After joining FTW, the members of the Team of Gods had taken care of him, but that care was subtle, implicit, and even awkward. It required effort to sense and understand it. It took Lu Feng a long time to understand it. Later on, he became the pillar, the person in charge, and became the so-called number one in the world. Close didnt need peoples care, and nobody would be concerned about the person who stood at the top. Only Wei Xiao was different. His kindness towards Lu Feng was straightforward and simple; nothing was concealed or hidden. Lu Feng could understand it with a glance, and see the brilliant and beautiful soul in his body. This kind of care was something Lu Feng couldnt get even if he asked for it. How could anything about it make him feel uncomfortable? The celery really hadnt been that hard to eat. Wei Xiao felt so much heartache his heart was about to break. He said anxiously, Captain, you have me now, I He recalled what Lu Feng had said to him and blurted out, Ill be your family, your friend, your He was afraid of being heard by others, so he leaned in close to his ear and added, Your lover. Lu Feng held his hand tightly and suppressed his voice, Eat. Wei Xiao: Mm. Neither of them wanted to let go of each other. After eating, Wei Xiao ran into Yuan Ze in the bathroom. Yuan Ze had something in his mouth. Wei Xiao frowned, Captain Yuan, no smoking in the bathroom. Yuan Ze: Lollipop. He took it out, and it really was a fricken lollipop, a strawberry flavored one! Eating a lollipop in the bathroom, youre really something. Really worthy of being Old Shit! Wei Xiao didnt even know how to continue disdaining this person! The two of them washed their hands together. Yuan Ze looked at the Wei Xiao in the bright mirror, Yesterdays performance was pretty good. Wei Xiao: It was so-so. Yuan Ze started again, You really dont want to come to L&P? Wei Xiao countered, If I go, whatll Old G do? Yuan Ze: Gary loves Close deeply. He can go to FTW. Wei Xiaos radar was on alert, So many people love Close. FTW cant hold them all. Yuan Ze: Garys different. For better or worse, hes still the second in the world. In last years solo competition, Old G had taken second place. Wei Xiao had always liked eating vinegar. At this time, hed already become a vinegar spirit, Thats because I didnt compete then. Yuan Ze laughed. His pair of black eyes looked deeply at Wei Xiao, Quiet, believe me, being Closes opponent is more interesting. Wei Xiao recalled his dialogue with Kim Sung-hyun, and there was a super big feeling of discontent in his heart, Thats you. My captain and I are a match made in heaven! Oh, they really were a match made in heaven now. Yuan Ze didnt say more, Alright. Im looking forward to your performance in the global competition. Wei Xiao was the least likely to back down during the trash talk part of the game, Dont worry, FTW will take down the world championships this year with a grand slam! The singles competition, doubles competition, team competition, all of it would be FTWs! Something that the Team of Gods from back then couldnt do, FTW would get it done now! Yuan Ze smiled like a fox, Dont say that big brother didnt remind you. Your FTW might not be able to get a single championship. Wei Xiao thought that he was still talking about the singles competition, Enough already, my captain even broke records this year! After getting four consecutive titles, hed gotten five consecutive titles. This was the real meaning of hands were soft from holding up so many championships. Yuan Zes teeth itched, and the lollipop really wasnt a good fix. Unfortunately, he couldnt smoke. You havent seen the rankings in Group B yet, have you? Wei Xiao really hadnt looked yet. Hed been busy falling in love over the past day and night, so where was he supposed to find the time? Yuan Ze baited him deliberately, Take a guess at who came second? Wei Xiao rolled his eyes, What, did EVE turn the tables on Y1? The situation in Group B and Group A were similar, where two teams were dominant. There was no need to mention the champion team Y1, who were excessively strong. EVE, as one of the top four teams in the world, was also strong enough to walk sideways. Especially as these two teams were both in the European division. The smell of gunpowder was heavy, and neither side would stop until the other side was dead every time they met. Yuan Ze laughed briefly, RR. Wei Xiao was stunned. Yuan Ze: Thats right, the RR team from the China competition zone. A big surprise had really exploded out in winter trainings Group B. Chinas RR team had been deadly and fierce in the early stages, with their mid-laner Moonlit constantly provoking Xie He, full of enthusiasm and energy in the few times they fought. Finally, the competition committee had changed the rules, and their rivalry had stopped for a while. However, RR had drawn EVE in the final prize pool competition. Nobody was optimistic about RR and felt that EVE would win steadily. RRs captain, Money, had sent out a Weibo message, Darlings, help cheer for our Little Moon. Hey, if he wins this game against God Xie, Ill create a lottery for a Porsche Cayenne, and let everyone play. And then RR won against EVE. Moonlit executed a wave of amazing operations and took down Xie He. RR even managed to take down EVEs support in the 2v2 skirmish. The rest of the team played out a strong counter attack and played a beautiful reversal game, winning the match! Because of the time difference, most of the players in Group A had still been sleeping while the match took place. The fans back home were the only ones whod blown up instantly. Money was really rich. He immediately sent out a Weibo, If we win against Y1, well draw a Ferrari. The hot search this morning had all been about RR and having money. People who didnt know the situation would click in, and then get drawn in. Unfortunately, RR lost the finals. Even so, the money in the prize pool wasnt enough for the other team captains to play around with. After they finished with their celebration banquet, Money didnt waste any time and directly drew the prize winnerCC As soon as the winners name came out, the entire network was sent into an uproar. Brother Vegetable was miserable, Brother Vegetable was really miserable. Hed been ditched so early in the morning, ate a meal on his own, and was driven away right after the people hed been waiting for arrived TRAGIC. Written in capital letters. Bai Cai idled away the time by scrolling through his Weibo, and then his mouth dropped open in shock. What? WTF! He won a prize, he won the lottery for a Porsche Cayenne??? Chapter 92: The future was promising. This was really an unexpected surprise. Brother Cai hadnt slept well the night before and had gotten up early in the morning. Because of the time difference, the events in Group B were basically held during Group As morning. When Mo made the lottery Weibo post, Brother Cai had just been going through his Weibo. They were all players in the same competition zone. Brother Vegetable had a good relationship with Moonlit (the grandmaster had made a lot of money off him), and Money was a lucky mascot in Glory, so Brother Vegetable was actually quite fond of RR. Hed only forwarded the post out of politeness, helping spread the word so that this rich compatriot could gain more popularity. Who wouldve known hed actually won the prize! Luck was a very magical thing. The more one wanted to win the first prize, the less likely it was to happen. If one didnt even think about it, it would drop down from the sky! Bai Cai wasnt the only one who was muddled. The entire China competition zone blew up. If it wasnt that everything was done publicly, I wouldve suspected that Captain Mo was pulling strings behind the scenes. White?? FTWs support player? Damn, the god of wealth really is the god of wealth. Even this can happen! Bai, WhiteCChis face is white. CaiCCwealth. Mama, is it too late for me to change my name now? Ive witnessed history being born. The number one richest person in Glory drew the luckiest person in Glory! I just want to say quietly that Money and the god of wealth seems to be a good pair to ship There were enough Lu Feng CPs to build a great wall, but Bai Cai wasnt far behind. It was just that Lu Feng was always the gong, while Bai Cai was always the shou, and their attributes werent the same. Mo Hui (Captain Mos real name) was also very surprised at the results of this lottery. He shouted out to Brother Cai over the internet, God Bai, badass. Brother Cai: Money: Dont worry, Ill drive the car to FTW directly. A Porsche Cayenne was worth at least a million yuan. This was undoubtedly a huge temptation for the Brother Cai who was greedy for money. But! Our Brother Cai was someone who had a character set-up to maintain, especially on the internet. He still felt some burden as an idol, so he answered reservedly, Captain Mo, this isnt very suitable Money: Its fine, the lottery was public. Its your good luck. Brother Cai liked to hear these kinds of words: His luck really was good enough to explode! Money continued to chat with him, Are you guys going back today? Brother Cai didnt dare to expose their itinerary and only said vaguely, Yeah, all teams are returning today. Money: Alright, see you back at home. Bai Cai: What to do, what to do, what to do? He would die if he had to refuse the one million that had arrived in his hands! At this time, Wei Xiao was still in the bathroom and didnt know that his familys vegetable had become a god of luck. After Yuan Ze told him that RR had come in second, Wei Xiao understood. He raised his eyebrows, Captain Yuans meaning is that we might not even win the domestic championship? Yuan Ze liked his little fearless appearance that wasnt afraid of the heavens and the earth, and he liked pouring buckets of cold water over him even more, Im clearer about EVEs level than you are. No matter how RR won, their strength is indisputable. He continued, This is different from when you won against Pro. EVE was in full swing, and Xie He didnt underestimate his opponent at all. RR had still been able to win under those conditions. It was enough to show how fierce the team was this year! Wei Xiao wouldnt be scared from just this. In reverse, he became even more energetic, Its good like this. Yuan Ze raised his eyebrows. Wei Xiao turned off the tap and tilted his head to look at him, If the domestic competition is too weak, I wont have the confidence to hammer you into blowing up in the global competition. The implication behind his words was that, the fiercer the domestic competition was, the better the situation. If all of the teams in the China competition zone were fierce daddies, and FTW managed to kill their way out of it, they would be able to break open a bright road in the global competition. There was no rainbow without suffering. If the entire China competition zone rose up, then the FTW that was able to win the championship would be a genuinely powerful team! Yuan Ze crunched down, biting into the lollipop in his mouth. His dark eyes were deep as he stared at Wei Xiao, Good. Wei Xiao dried his hands and went out, See you in the globals. Yuan Ze: Im waiting for you to win. Wei Xiao: Youll also be watching me win the championship. Yuan Ze was waiting for FTWs domestic championship, but Wei Xiao wanted him to watch as FTW took the global championship! Yuan Ze stared at the back figure of this thin youth that was filled with vitality, and his fingertips burned slightly. Sure enough This youth always aroused a strong desire for conquest. After walking off, Wei Xiao took out his cell phone and sent a WeChat message to his captain whod been called away by Xie He, Captain, captain, captain!!! RR took second place in Group Bs winter training camp, and Moonlit won against Xie He! Its really exciting. Lets hurry up and go home, this years domestic competition will be fun. When does the regular season start exactly? Lets make an appointment for a training match. How about playing ten games against RR every day? If RR doesnt agree, Ill go find Little Moonlit and guarantee a date! Lu Feng: . Hed sent the message as a voice message, and the speed of his speech was like a small firecracker, noisy and fast. Lu Feng understood the last part of his words. He replied, A date? Wei Xiao clicked open the voice message. His ears were pleasantly numbed, but he hastily clarified, I mean, arrange a date! After that, he found that it was still ambiguous, so he quickly withdrew the message. Lu Feng: I heard it. Wei Xiao decided to act coquettish first regardless of whether or not he was in trouble, Captain, I was wrong, in the future, Ill only set dates with you, and Lu Feng: . When he saw the ellipsis, Wei Xiao understood that things were resolved. He quickly switched back to the key point, So, how about arranging training matches when we go back? Lu Feng asked him, Still downstairs? Wei Xiao: Stepping into the elevator. Lu Feng: Pack up your bags, were heading to the airport soon. Wei Xiao: Right away! It wasnt until he got into the van that Wei Xiao learned about Brother Cais airdropped Porsche Cayenne. Amazing, Brother Cai! Wei Xiao was surprised. The Little Ning whose chin had hit the ground from surprise, and the Yue Wenle who was so shocked hed dropped his chips, had already calmed down. Brother Cai spoke in a reserved tone, Its unexpected, its all an unexpected surprise. Its also a good result that comes from doing good things often. Wei Xiao really was happy for him, Alright, enough, Brother Cai, I knew that your little hands were lucky a long time ago, but I never thought that theyd be that lucky. Previously, during the free matching, Wei Xiao had been able to play so happily all because of Bai Cais luck in drawing them big boss-level opponents. As soon as he spoke, Bai Cais lips twitched, and he began to vaguely understand why his luck had been so explosively good. Sure enough this was the law of conservation of ones character. Hed been abused throughout the entire winter training competition, so hed gotten a luxury gift bag at the end? Tsk this really was a bargain. Brother Cai wanted to lay down and get abused again so that he could get another Porsche 15 days later. Bai Cai had already made preparations with Xiang Liu regarding winning the lottery. This was a very delicate matter. Other players helping to forward a lottery was a very normal thing, especially for someone like Bai Cai who was friendly with everyone (in the situation where people didnt know that he was the Gossip Emperor). He often helped others spread the word, so forwarding Captain Mos Weibo post wasnt anything special. Who couldve known that this lottery platform would be so magical and end up sniping blindly at Brother Cai? Brother Cai might be overjoyed, but he also knew that it wasnt that simple. First of all, their Weibo accounts belonged to the club. Although it was his small lucky hand that had drawn the Porsche Cayenne, the FTW.White Weibo account belonged to FTW. According to their contracts, the car actually belonged to the club. Xiang Lius expression had also been stunned when he heard him recount the situation. His mind filled with the thoughtCCsuch things could happen?! Of course, he couldnt be the decision maker for such a major thing. He called Lu Feng, and said that there was something important that he wanted to ask. Lu Feng had just gone upstairs. When he heard about this, he immediately went to ask Bai Cai, Do you have your drivers license? It had only been one and a half years since Bai Cai had wanted to go back to his hometown and raise pigs and farm. When would he have had time to learn this kind of high-level thing? Lu Feng: Do you want to have a car? Brother Cai quickly shook his head, No, no, no need. Lu Feng: How about this, the car will stay with the club, but youll be paid the cash equivalent. Bai Cai: ! Lu Feng asked him. Or would you rather keep the car? Bai Cai shook his head violently, then quickly stopped himself. He was only able to find his voice again half a beat later, No, Captain, this Reasonably speaking, this car actually belonged to the club ahhhhh! Even though his luck had played a role, the club didnt have to pay him fully in cash! Lu Feng: Dont think too much. You drew it, so its yours. Brother Cai: The corners of Lu Fengs mouth curved up very slightly, Your luck is pretty good. It was a simple few words, but it made Bai Cais heart surge, and tears filled his eyes. He wished that he could sign a lifetime contract with FTW, relying on the base for a living for a lifetime and never leave! Where else could he find such a good captain, such a good boss, such a good club, ahh! Later on, FTW really did pay him in full for the car. Brother Cai, whod gained an extra 1.2 million just like that, was happy waking up every morning, knowing that he could go and look at his bank account balance. Of course, these were all things that happened later. Chen Feng waited until everyone was finished with being excited, then said seriously, Did you all see Group Bs rankings? Wei Xiao: RR came second! There was a swish as Chen Feng shook open the paper poster that had been rolled up in his hands. There it wasCC FTWs soul painter, Chen Fengs handiwork! Bai Cai and Yue Wenle had encountered this before and wanted to cover their eyes. Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan were new and didnt understand. They looked over in interest, and then Ning Zhehan: Wei Xiao: Tch. Tang Chen praised, The drawing is very wonderful, its drawn in such a flowery way that nobody can understand it! Chen Feng slapped him on the head, and God Tang shut up. This poster was really magical. How should it be described? Anyone who saw the poster have the same kind of thoughts in their heart: They felt bad for the paper, for the pen, the pigments, and even the table it was drawn on Thats right, they felt bad for the materials, because the pictures and characters on the poster were too ugly! This wasnt a simple matter of drawing badly. The colors were dark, the lines were treacherous, and the whole thing gave off a chilly feeling Wei Xiao was barely able to make out something, This is a list of teams for the regular season? Chen Feng rolled his eyes at him, Nonsense. Wei Xiao: It was already amazing that he was able to identify something, but hed actually been disdained. Wei Xiaos heart was bitter, and he toppled back towards his captain. There was a purpose to Chen Fengs poster, which was to tell the players about the dangerous situation in the domestic competition. Dont think that you can be proud of taking third place in the winter training camp. This years China division is unusually powerful and overbearing! Do you see? This is RR, who won against last years global top four He pointed to a messy ball of dark paint and spoke very righteously. Wei Xiao raised his hand. Chen Feng tilted his chin up slightly, Speak. Wei Xiao: Money is so rich, so shouldnt RR be golden and shiny? The three little ones from FTW couldnt resist, Pffft! Wei Xiao winked towards Lu Feng, Isnt that right, captain? Lu Feng was calm, Mm. Coach Chen: To hell with your mm. With such indulgence, children would only become more and more bratty! The original intention behind Chen Feng making the poster was to calm the team down, cool their blood, and let them know that the domestic competition was like a thorn bush that couldnt be taken lightly. In order to create this atmosphere, he hadnt even eaten his meals and had painstakingly drawn out a hellish poster. Yet as a result With Little Lunatic Wei here, cooling people down went out the window! Each and every one of them were all floating up to the sky! Chen Feng said, RR is very strong; they managed to overturn EVE. Wei Xiaos eyes brightened, Arrange a training match! Chen Feng: TPT collected a large amount of data and almost jilted Y1! Wei Xiao: Arrange a training match! Chen Feng: This years 3U is also very strong This time, Wei Xiao changed his words, Dont worry, Ive already arranged for a training match with Asleeps side. Coach Chen: Everyone in the van was amused by his words. During the two hours of driving, the tired children all fell asleep one after another Wei Xiao leaned against Lu Fengs shoulder and slept quietly and neatly. Lu Feng looked down at him, a faint smile hovering at the corners of his mouth. Winter training camp was over. FTW had only taken third place, which wasnt a particularly brilliant performance in Group A or Group B. Theyd lost to L&P and Pro. Theyd lost the one million dollar bonus, and their momentum wasnt as impressive as RRs. But This years FTW was very different. They had a new injection of fresh blood, new faces, and a new beginning. As Lu Feng had said when he first met Wei Xiao, Youre inexperienced, but your future is promising. The current FTW had also inherited this sentenceCC They lacked experience, but their future was promising. For the win. The dream of youth was only just beginning. xiin C this is the end of the first arc (out of three arcs) next up is the regular season, and some angst/drama o.o Chapter 93: Lu Feng took him to a remote corridor, "What do you want?" When they arrived at the airport, Wei Xiao was still dazed and out of it. Winter training had lasted for 15 days, and every day of it had been high intensity training. Wei Xiao had a highly dedicated temperament. He never did things sloppily; this didnt apply just to competitions; hed devoted himself fully to every match. Hed been like a string that had been stretched taut, and coupled with starting this first, sweet love, not only had he not felt tired, hed even been very excited. Now that it was over, he felt sleepy and kept feeling as if he couldnt get enough rest. He hadnt brought any luggage. His backpack was settled on top of Lu Fengs suitcase, and his hands were empty. Bai Cai disdained him, Cant you manage on your own! Wei Xiao yawned, his entire person leaning on Lu Feng, None of your business. Brother Cai: Its fortunate that there arent any fans. If someone took a photo of this, youd rush into the hot search. Wei Xiaos heart wavered. If this was before the winter training camp, he wouldve taken the photos on his own and then gone to do the deed himself, wanting to keep Close and Quiets ID linked together every day. At this time, he still wanted them to be tied together, but he had a guilty conscience. Wei Xiao jumped right in and said with a straight face, Whats there to take photos of? Its not like I asked the captain to hold me. Lu Feng: . Brother Cai rolled his eyes, Do you want to be held in a princess carry? Wei Xiao: Lu Feng pinched his waist lightly through his clothes, just where he was ticklish. The itch made his heart thump. Seeing that Wei Xiao didnt make a sound, Brother Cai glanced over at him, F*ck, are you shy? The tip of Wei Xiaos ears were a little red, but it had nothing to do with the princess carry. It was because the captain was acting like a rogue! Ahhhhh, a dishonest captain was so invigorating, he really wanted Fine, they were out in public, he didnt want anything right now! Wei Xiao stared at Bai Cai, If you keep talking, you can come and carry your daddy on your back! Brother Cai: Forget it, forget it, the Brother Cai whod gotten a Porsche in a moment of carelessness wasnt going to nitpick with him, hehe. The Brother Cai who was proud of his gains went to find Little Ning and take on a role as a big brother, ignoring the beast behind him. Taking advantage of the time when nobody was looking back, Wei Xiao quietly pinched Lu Fengs fingers. Lu Feng looked forward steadily. Wei Xiao had been acting like he had no bones ever since he got off the van, and now, he leaned on him even more, pasting up against his ear and calling out to him, Captain Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiaos lips curved, and his laughter was wicked, Want hugs. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao amused himself to death with his own words. He then loosened Lu Fengs hand, wanting to go and catch up with Bai Cai. He hadnt yet left when he found his wrist being grasped by Lu Feng. Wei Xiao turned back in surprise. Lu Feng stared at him, then said to Xiang Lu, Im going to the bathroom. Xiang Liu took over his luggage, Okay. Wei Xiao blinked. Lu Feng asked him, Are you going? Wei Xiao: Yes! To hell with going to the bathroom; Lu Feng took him to a remote corridor, and the tips of their noses almost brushed together, What do you want? Wei Xiao couldnt hold down the corners of his lips, Hug. Lu Feng held him by the waist and really held him up. Wei Xiao cried out lightly, his hands wrapping around Lu Fengs neck, his entire person hanging off his body. Lu Feng pressed him against the wall and continued to ask, What else? His dark eyes stared at his lips, and wasnt it just because he wanted to kiss them? Wei Xiaos entire body felt numb, and he couldnt hold back at all, Want kisses wu His mouth was covered, and Wei Xiao grew dizzy from the fierce kiss. It was over, it was over. Hed originally been very tired, and now, he wanted to walk even less! The two of them only caught up with the main group ten minutes later. Wei Xiao was even stickier than before, really wanting to walk hand in hand with Lu Feng. Brother Cai glanced over at Wei Xiao during a gap in his bragging to Little Ning, ! What was going on with his sultry expression? Had the captain promised to solo with him day and night again? After passing the security check, they still had some time before boarding. There was a computer in the lounge, and Glory was installed on the computer. Wei Xiao was drawn to it, Old Bai, lets double Even before he could say queue, Lu Feng had interrupted him, Come with me. Wei Xiaos heart thumped hard, his eyes speaking silently: The captain wants to kiss again? Oh hey, how could the captain be like this? He was too likeable! Lu Feng, whod miraculously understood: Brother Cai: Whats the point in queueing for a game now? Can you guarantee that youll win the game in 30 minutes? Bai Cai might be saying so, but hed already arrived in front of the computer and was preparing to log in. And then Whered he go? Wei Xiao was already far away, Whats the point in playing? Theres only 30 minutes, and what if we cant finish the game? Wont we be screwing over our teammates? Brother Cai: ??? Wei Xiaos voice drifted over to encourage him from afar, If you really want to hone your skills, you can go to the training area to kill soldiers. Work hard, Veggie! Brother Cai was a pure support player. Kill soldiers? Whose soldiers was he supposed to kill? If he killed them, Old Yue would blow up his vegetable head! Wei Xiao had already slipped away. Bai Cais face was filled with confusion. He found that he was getting less and less able to understand this beast! Wei Xiao followed Lu Feng out of the lounge and looked around, Is there a good place to go to? There didnt seem to be any hidden corridors after they passed the security check. Lu Feng said deliberately, There is. Wei Xiao was excited, Captain, youre really amazing!~ Lu Feng glanced at him. Wei Xiao asked curiously, Have you been to this airport before? Lu Feng: No. Wei Xiao: Then, how did you find a good place so quickly? Lu Feng: Were almost there. While Lu Feng was speaking, hed already led him into a large toy supermarket. Wei Xiao was surprised, This isnt such a great place, right? There were children everywhere, and it wasnt appropriate for them to be lovey dovey and affectionate here! Lu Feng looked at his little expression and really couldnt hold back. He poked his forehead, Enough. Wei Xiao: Huh? Lu Feng reminded him, Were about to go back to the base. Did you buy anything for Soybean? Wei Xiao: ! F*ck, hed been so focused on falling in love hed forgotten all about his doggy son. A few days ago, Wei Xiao had watched videos of Soybean every day, listening to his doggy howl. Later on, especially on the last day, Wei Xiaos heart had been filled with Lu Feng. How could he remember Brother Soy? Before he went out, hed promised Soybean that hed bring him back a gift. Now Hed go back and get him some dog food and treat it as a gift kinda. Lu Feng said, There arent any suitable shops on the island, but fortunately there are toys sold at the airport. There werent any pet stores, but there was a toy store. To some extent, a doggy son was still a son, Toys that a child of five or six years old liked to play with would also be popular with dogs. Wei Xiao was ashamed, Im incompetent as a father, Im not even as good as a new father like you. Lu Fengs lips curved, In that case, I have to perform even better. When the Chinese-speaking shop assistant saw the two handsome Asian men step into the store, she happily came over to ask, Sirs, may I ask how old the little friend youre buying a gift for is? Wei Xiao thought about it, then said to Lu Feng, Our son has just reached two years old this year. The shop assistant little sister, ??? Our-our son? You you two have a son? Lu Feng didnt explain further, Mm. Wei Xiao smiled brightly at the shop assistant, Although theyre only two years old, they can stir up a big fuss. Is there a robot or something? Its best if its electric. This little sisters mental quality was very high. She was only stunned for a brief moment, W-wait a minute. Later, after some back and forth, Lu Feng selected the biggest one. Wei Xiao was very surprised, This can even be programmed! How would it know how to play with it! Soybean liked robots that moved around and emitted light, but how could its doggy brain understand something so advanced? Lu Feng: Ill play with it together. Wei Xiao was silent for a moment, I lose. Youre really a good father. The little shop assistant: Oh my god, these two only looked to be about 20, but they actually had a son! Thats not right, they were both men Sure enough, had all the good men in the world been snatched up by other good men? When Wei Xiao returned to the lounge, he was holding a large gift box in his hands. Little Ning noticed it, Who did you buy a gift for? Wei Xiao: Soybean. Little Ning instantly understood, Weve gone out for such a long time, we really should bring some gifts back when we return! The Brother Cai who had wealth fall down from the sky was now very generous. He looked at the gift box and said, Is it for my Brother Soy? What did you buy? Ill pay for it. As an uncle, I should occasionally spoil my nephew. Wei Xiao was amused, Really? Wasnt it just a doggy toy? Based on how big the box was, it was probably a dog bed? If it was just a dog bed it would only cost 300 or 400 at most. Brother Cai had just won a Porsche; why would he quibble about such a small amount of money? He wouldnt be able to live up to his name as a vegetable. Bai Cai: Of course, give me a number. Ill transfer it to you over WeChat. Wei Xiao simply handed the invoice over to Bai Cai. Bai Cai looked it over blankly, F*ck! Wei Xiao smiled like a fox, The captain paid for it. You can just transfer the money to the captain. With that, he blinked his eyes at his captain: Take a look at how thrifty I am, I even managed to get the money back just like this. Lu Feng: He turned his gaze away. Brother Cais hands were trembling, You-you, you guys He didnt dare to scold the captain and could only roar in his heart: Are you guys f*cking crazy? You bought a 12,000 dollar intelligent robot for a husky?! What will you do with it after you bring it back! Can it play with it?! Oh, it could play with it by taking it apart Wei Xiao urged him, Hurry, were about to board the plane. Brother Vegetable played dead. Wei Xiao: Whats going on? What happened to the deep feelings between uncle and nephew? Brother Cai: Sorry, its not that deep. Wei Xiao laughed and cursed, Youve just gotten a car worth over a million dollars, but you cant even give 12,000 to your big nephew? Brother Cai: I thought about it. I was wrong, and I shouldnt try to fight the captain for Brother Soys love. Wei Xiao clicked his tongue, Take a look at our captain, then take a look at our Brother Vegetable, it really is embarrassing comparing people to others. Brother Cai closed his ears and couldnt hear a thing. In any case, it was impossible for him to give out this money. Anything over 300 was like asking Brother Vegetable for his life. After boarding the plane, Wei Xiao was full of dislike for this first class cabin. He was clearly sitting next to Lu Feng, but they couldnt even hold hands in secret. Why did they need such a large space?! People should be closer together! After four hours on the plane and two hours in the van, it was already 9PM by the time they arrived at the base. Wei Xiao had only just gotten out of the car when he heard the sound of the huskys approach As soon as the door to the villa opened, a big black and white dog rushed out. Seeing that Soybean was so enthusiastic, his father, whod been separated from him for 15 days, felt a strong feeling of fatherly love in his heart. His doggy son had missed him so much. Soybean ran over the whole way, clean fur fluffed up by the wind, eyes a bright misty blue, its vigorous body filled with yearning and longing. Wei Xiao stood there, opened his arms, and waited for it, Brother Soy! Soybean howled, then pounced behind him. Wei Xiao: ??? He turned his head. What a good fellow, his doggy sons eyes were filled with his boyfriend. Thats right, Soybean had come flying, but it wasnt aimed at Wei Xiao, but at Lu Feng, who was standing behind him. After Soybean had pounced on the most handsome one, it was fully satisfied. Wei Xiao: Brother Cai & Little Ning & Old Yue, and even Chen Feng and Tang Chen were all laughing loudly. It was rare to see Little Lunatic Wei come out on the losing end. It was an unusually happy thing. Wei Xiao was flustered and exasperated, Soybean, you stupid face con dog, Laozi is going to stew you! Soy C real face con dog C bean howled happily in his male gods embrace. This coquettish look seemed to be truly inherited from a certain someone. xiin: a whole chapter filled with dog food maybe Soybean will eat it. Chapter 94: If you win, Ill kiss you. If I win, you kiss me, okay? After returning back to China, the days seemed to get shorter and shorter. The opening day for the regular season had already been set, and the roster of teams had been released. The 14 teams were divided up into two groups, and there would be two intra-group cycles and one mixed group cycle. During the regular season that would last for over two months, each team would play 19 games. If they won all of them, the highest score they could get was 19 points. This was the current highest possible score for the regular season in China. No club had ever achieved this. The FTW from back then had taken a grand slam during the regular season, but the domestic regular season had still been following the old competition system where there was just a single intra-group cycle and one mixed group cycle, adding up to only 13 games total. The Team of Gods had won every game, and the highest score theyd gotten was only 13 points. The regular season was a BO3 point snatching system. After all the competitions were completed, the stats of the two groups would be put together based on the points ranking. The top four teams from each group would enter the playoffs. The playoffs were held in a brutal elimination system. If they lost, theyd go on holiday early. If they won, they could keep on fighting. Fighting until they won the championship! FTW was very clear about the competition system. Wei Xiao was no stranger to it; during the 2020 domestic competition, hed basically accompanied Bai Cai the whole way through. When fans spoke about the Jungler King behind Brother Cai, they were talking about Wei Xiao. The domestic competition was a protracted war. This was particularly the case during the regular season, which not only required obtaining points, but also training. After undergoing over two months of the competition, any professional player would undergo a great transformation. RRs Moonlit, TPTs Eurostar, 3Us Asleep These players whod all been hammered and beaten by the grandmaster and hadnt toppled, and had all made great progress after going through the domestic competition. Without having had that experience in the domestic competition, there wouldnt have been such an outstanding winter training camp performance. This year, the Chinese competition zone was really filled with a strong momentum! Wei Xiao looked at the list and was very delighted, The opening fight is between us and RR. Chen Feng nodded, Its a convention to have the first place and the runner up start up the season. There was an opening game on the first day of the regular season. This so-called opening game was actually a performance competition. Winning or losing didnt affect their points. It was just a game that started off the new season of the year! Over the years, the inauguration game had always been between the champion and the runner up. The competition season of each division would always be inaugurated by the champion and runner up. This same event in the global competition would be inaugurated by the world champion and runner up. This was a stage that only belonged to them. It showcased the glory of the past, and also a new starting point, setting down the burdens of the past and beginning a new journey. In 2020, the China competition zones champion was FTW, and the runner up was RR. In 2021, the first match of the China competition zone would also be between them! The inauguration battle would be held ten days later. After explaining the general situation, Chen Feng said, You guys now have your last three days of free time. The four little ones of FTW all perked up their ears. Chen Fengs cold and heavy gaze swept over each of them, and he said seriously, This is the last holiday of the year. Take good advantage of it and deal with anything that needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. After that, there will be no free time until weve won the championship. Brother Cai and Yue Wenle had experienced this before. They nodded, then said, Understood. Little Ning was already boiling with passion. His voice was very loud, Got it! Wei Xiao wasnt interested in this holiday. His thoughts and heart were all filled with something elseCCapplying for his school suspension. The club had already submitted this application to the school, but he still had to show up and deal with it himself. One of these three days had to be allocated towards getting it done. Requesting a suspension wasnt difficult. Although it may sound a bit incredible for a student with an examination score of 985 to run off and play professionally, there was the outstanding student Fu Li from Northern University to pave the way. This made it so that Wei Xiao, who was from a teaching university, didnt appear so prominent. FTW also wasnt planning to use this to establish Wei Xiaos public image, so they hadnt specifically publicized it. Wei Xiao was worried about going home. If it required a parents signature, he would certainly have to see them. Regardless of whether it was Wei Quan or Li Su, he didnt want to see either of them. If hed had any expectations for them when his grandma had still been around, his heart was now completely cold after her death. When it came to fatherly love or motherly love, for Wei Xiao, their familial relationship had disappeared on the day his grandma died. Wei Quan and Li Su were nothing but strangers who were related to him by blood. After they were allowed to disperse, everyone packed up their luggage and prepared to return home for a few days. Brother Cai was humming a small tune as he packed his bags. Wei Xiao wasnt feeling happy, so he tried to bury him too, Why arent you using your 66,000 suitcase. One of Brother Cais vegetables was that 66,000 suitcase, which hed given himself as a championship gift. It was a brand name suitcase, very expensive and very luxurious. Bai Cai rolled his eyes. What do you understand? With that nest of chickens that my mom raised up, if I drag my little cutie back, itll just be used for chicken shit. Brother Cai had made money over the past two years, enough to help his parents build a villa in their village. Unfortunately, Mother Bai loved farming, so the garden of the villa was filled with seasonal vegetables. While she was at it, shed also filled in the swimming pool and remodeled it into a chicken coop. Bai Cai had gone home loaded with honor and wealth, and when he saw that his million dollar villa courtyard had become a big farming compound, hed collapsed and spent half an hour on the phone with Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao had suppressed his laughter, Turn on the video so that big brother can see. Brother Vegetable had turned on the video. Wei Xiao had only taken a glance at it when he burst out honking and laughing like a goose. Brother Vegetable was incredibly angry, Can you not show some f*cking sympathy. Wei Xiao was laughing so hard he couldnt breathe, Its-its very good like this, its filled with life. Not only was it filled with life, there was also the scent of chicken shit, pig manure, and cow dung! When he recalled that incident, Wei Xiao was amused and patted Brother Cai on the shoulder, You can do it! Brother Cai glanced at him, What about you? He knew about Wei Xiaos situation. Wei Xiaos smile faded slightly, Its fine. Brother Cai thought briefly, How about I go back with you? Bai Cai thought back and forth, and ultimately couldnt not worry about this beast. Dont look at how Wei Xiao never seemed to worry about anything; once it came to anything related to those black-hearted parents of his, there was always a chance hed close himself up. Bai Cai was very worried. How could Wei Xiao be willing to waste his rare holiday? He glanced at him, Can you drive? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Are you as tall as me? Bai Cai: Wei Xiaos voice was careless, Firstly, you cant drive, and secondly, you cant fight as well as me, but you still want to look out for me? What are you thinking, its not like my family is the Glory canyon. His words shifted, and Wei Xiao said happily, Im going to go and ask the captain to accompany me! Brother Cai: Im the stupid one for worrying about you! After coaxing and sending off Brother Cai, Wei Xiao was actually embarrassed to speak up and ask Lu Feng. The captain had been busy ever since they returned back to the base. He hadnt seen him all morning Wei Xiao rubbed the huskys forehead and muttered, Your dad doesnt want you anymore. Soybean cooperated with him, Ou Wei Xiao poked it, Your dad doesnt want you, but he wants me! Soybeans large eyes were innocent, Aouu [Who the hell knew what my dad was talking about?!] FTW, sixth floor. Lu Feng, whod been busy all morning, shifted his left shoulder, his eyebrows drawing together in a frown. Xiang Liu, who was to the side, saw his movements and asked anxiously, Do you want to rest for a while? Lu Feng shook his head, Its fine. Xiang Liu was worried, You havent done physiotherapy for over half a month. Do you want Lu Feng glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. Xiang Liu shut up. Lu Feng looked down at the documents, I know what Im doing. As the only one who knew what was happening, Xiang Liu was often worried and frightened. He wanted to say it, but he didnt dare to. Yet not saying it meant that he was always worried. It hadnt been easy for FTW to gain this new atmosphere. If something happened to Close at this time The consequences were too terrible, and Xiang Liu didnt dare to think about it. Theyd been enduring for a full three years. From having nothing at the beginning, to becoming the current domestic champions. Xiang Liu had personally seen their performance records from the winter training camp. Wei Xiao joining FTW had given them a completely new outlook and let everyone see a new ray of hope. Three years How many three years did professional players have?! Lu Feng had already been waiting for too long, and FTW had fallen silent for too long. They needed a brilliant, golden trophy, a world championship that represented infinite glory. During this critical time, there could be no mistakes. However Xiang Liu tried briefly to restrain himself, but wasnt able to hold back, The regular season lasts for over two months, followed by the playoffs, then the national championships The intensity level of this competition schedule was too high. Not only were there competition games, their training matches were also fully booked. As Chen Feng had said, as soon as the main season began, the starter players were on a constant rotation. Unless they were eliminated, there would be no rest. Countless healthy players couldnt endure this pace, let alone with Lu Fengs shoulder Xiang Liu gritted his teeth, Its better if you go for systematic treatment. This year, FTW will definitely be able to enter the global competition. When the time comes, youll have to play in both the individual and team competitions. How will He held back the rest of his words and didnt finish them, but Lu Fengs eyebrows drew together, and he said, Xiang Liu. Xiang Liu: Lu Feng: Go out. At the end of the day, Xiang Liu didnt dare to continue to persuade him. He let out a long sigh and turned to go outside. When there was nobody left in the big office, Lu Feng got up and stood in front of the French windows. Outside the window was the FTW bases canyon garden. The designer had recreated the Glory Canyon and moved the map from the game into reality. Brilliant green grass, elaborate defense towers, and the red and blue crystals that represented their respective camps. If the crystals exploded, the game was over. How many matches had ended with that exact explosion? Lu Feng stared out the window, unblinking. Xiang Lius words echoed through his mind, When the time comes, youll have to play in both the individual and team competitions It wasnt just the individual and team games. There were also the doubles games. The youths clear and clean voice had long embedded itself into his heart: Captain, shall we sign up for the doubles this year? Well definitely be more tacit than Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran! The singles championship is ours, the doubles championship is ours, and the 5v5 will also be ours! Taking down three championships in one go, wont we be bullying others a little? Whatever, well just bully them anyway! Lu Feng bowed his head and clenched his fist gently. His fingertips felt numb, and pain spread up like a needle straight from his forearm to his shoulder. He quickly released his hand, a thin layer of sweat oozing out from his forehead. Wei Xiao was bored to death. He tossed the husky aside and was preparing to go queue for ranked games when his cell phone rang. Wei Xiao quickly picked up his cell phone. He smiled as soon as he saw who the caller was. Lu Feng: Are you inside? Wei Xiao: I was just about to go to the training room. Captain, are you finished with your work? He missed him. Lu Feng: Mm. Ill go find you. Wei Xiao: Okay! Wei Xiao had originally been planning to head to the spacious group training room. Now of course he had to head to the doubles training room! Ah, the FTW base was really good. It actually had something as sweet as a doubles training room. Wei Xiao had only just stepped into the room when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching. He hid behind the door and deliberately concealed his breathing. The door opened, and Lu Feng stepped in. There was nobody in the training room, but Lu Feng noticed Wei Xiaos cell phone on the table. His mouth curved up slightly. There was a bang. The door closed behind him. Lu Feng turned his head, his black eyes locking onto Wei Xiaoxiao whod been hiding behind the door. Wei Xiao was surprised, You um How had he known that he was hiding there? He hadnt even asked the question when Lu Feng wrapped an arm around his waist and kissed him. How could Wei Xiao still be concerned about this and that? He clung to his body and took the initiative to kiss him back. By the time the two of them separated, Wei Xiaos cheeks were flushed, I like this kind of greeting very much. He simply loved it to death. He wished that they could kiss every time they met. Lu Feng looked at him, Do you want to solo? Upon hearing this, Wei Xiaos eyes became even brighter, Now? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao was stunned, How could I not want to?! I want to even in my dreams! Lu Fengs low voice was filled with indulgence, Im free these next few days, so we can solo for as long as you want. Wei Xiao was shocked by this sudden wonderful surprise, As as long as I want? Lu Feng: As long as you want. Wei Xiao was so excited that he jumped on him, Captain~ Lu Feng hugged him, Yes. Wei Xiao rubbed his face against his neck, Is this a benefit of being in love? Lu Feng: No. Wei Xiao let go and looked at him. Lu Feng kissed him, This is. The tip of Wei Xiaos heart tingled: F*ck, he would be seduced to death by the captain sooner or later! Wei Xiao was truly too happy that afternoon. Simply soloing was already enough to make him excited, but hed thought of something even better. Captain, we cant just solo, there has to be rewards. What reward? For example, if you win, Ill kiss you. If I win, you kiss me, okay? After saying this, Wei Xiao felt that he was really too smart. He wanted to give himself 9999 thumbs up! Lu Feng laughed briefly and said, Change it slightly. Wei Xiao: ??? Lu Feng spoke slowly, in a very serious tone, If I win, Ill kiss you, if you win, you kiss me. It was the same words, but two words were switched around, and it was spoken by another person. The effect was completely different. Wei Xiao blushed and his heart thumped, Captain Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao accused him, Youre not allowed to use your beauty to get what you want! This affected his ability to play too much! One game of solo averaged out to be half an hour, and after playing, the two of them spent around five minutes fooling around. In the blink of an eye, the sky had already grown dark. Wei Xiao felt like he hadnt even startedCCin all senses. Lu Feng hugged him, settling him on his thighs, Hungry? Wei Xiao, whod just lost a game and had been kissed until his face was flushed, Not hungry. Lu Feng knew what he was thinking, Well continue after dinner. Wei Xiao immediately changed his words, Hungry! Lu Feng set him down, Lets go, eat first. The two of them played all the way until eleven oclock at night. Wei Xiao was as satisfied as could be with this, Captain, you still have to get up early. Go sleep. When it came to solo, or even kissing, all of it had to be sustainable. Wei Xiao wasnt in a hurry! Lu Feng asked him, No more? Wei Xiaos heart was super itchy, Can we continue? Lu Feng: Sure. Wei Xiao: The captain would really make him die of happiness. One hour later, Wei Xiao felt heartache for Lu Feng and said that he didnt want to play anymore. Back then, hed been young and ignorant and soloed for 48 hours straight. Now, the days were long, and he wasnt anxious about waiting for this short amount of time. Lu Feng saw that he was content and quit the game. Wei Xiao lay there paralysed in the e-sports chair, and he had the tired feeling that came after a period of high excitement. Lu Feng drank a sip of water and called out to him softly, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was languid and lazy, Hm? Lu Feng stared at the word Glory on the screen and said, Youll represent FTW in this years singles competition. Only one person from each club could take part in the singles competition. From the day he joined FTW, Wei Xiao had never thought about signing up for the singles. Because everyone knew that Lu Feng was the best candidate. He was the three times singles champion and was unquestionably the number one person when it came to solo. Wei Xiao thought that hed misheard, What? Lu Feng turned his head to look at him, This years singles, youll sign up for the competition. Wei Xiao heard him clearly. The smile hanging on the corner of his lips faded, and his back straightened, Why? xiin: uh oh Chapter 95: Wei Xiao: Laozi is really a saint! Nobody knew the state of Lu Fengs shoulder better than Lu Feng himself. Xiang Lius worries were reasonable, but they were meaningless. In recent years, FTW couldnt have done without Lu Feng. Let alone Close toppling down, the impact would be earth-shaking if anyone learned about his shoulder injury. Not to mention anything else, the capital divestment would be enough for FTW to drown in. In the past three years, FTW had always done a global round trip in the 5v5 competition. How had they managed to develop to their present scale? Why were their signing fees for the live broadcasting platform so high, and why were they the sponsors favorite? There was only one reasonCC Close. The worlds most valuable player was also the head of FTW. This was a very strong injection of reassurance for all their partners. The value of a club depended largely on their results and their players. Both were interdependent and indispensable. Results needed to be maintained, and the players would move around. These were variables that the capital side had to consider. Only FTW was different. The player was the person in charge, and this double identity had tied Close and FTW together. It was both bondage and security. Close would never leave FTW, which was something that carried great value regardless of the teams performance. This was also one of the reasons why FTW was able to thrive over the years. Fans always liked to say that the great demon king had held up the entire club by himself. This wasnt actually an exaggeration; it was fact. Close was too important for FTW, so important that even Lu Feng didnt dare to act rashly. The biggest disaster that could befall e-sports players was an occupational disease. When there was high intensity training coupled with a serious lack of exercise, how could something not go wrong with a body that was made of flesh and blood? Most clubs had rebab and massage professionals, and after the start of the regular season, the players would do preventive physiotherapy every day. Even so, there were still so many injuries every year. E-sports was very draining, and a small mistake would affect the entire game. Why did injured players start to decline? It wasnt just because their operations couldnt keep up with their thoughts, but also because their mentality had collapsed. Li Heran had fallen from the clouds. Why was it so difficult for him to stand back up again? It was because hed exhausted all his confidence and courage. The injury to his wrist had had a great impact on him, and there had been an even bigger impact on his fans. Countless people had loved him crazily, and countless people were heartbroken by this. The howling across the entire internet was heartrending, and these countless words would eventually take on a life of their own, pressing down on the players. Dont blame him, he hurt his wrist. He missed a soldier. That wouldnt have happened with the former Li Heran. Its okay, its okay, Captain Li, well always love you! Good, bad, sympathetic, sarcastic, comforting, abusive It was all the same. They all repeated one factCC Li Heran, youre ill. If Lu Feng was on his own, he wouldnt be afraid of any of these things. No matter how big the weight was on his shoulders, he could still hold it up. Unfortunately, there was an entire FTW behind him, an FTW that had managed to stand up again after experiencing a disaster. It seemed strong, but in fact, it was as fragile as a thin piece of paper. Once public opinion pressed down on them, it wouldnt affect just Lu Feng, but the whole FTW. This was the fundamental reason why Lu Feng couldnt do anything. Theyd been preparing for three years, waiting for three years, working hard for three years Chen Feng, Tang Chen, Xiang Liu, the logistics staff, and the countless fans who loved them. They were all looking forward to the FTWs triumphant return. At this kind of time, Lu Feng would never allow anything to happen to Close. During the winter training camp, Lu Feng hadnt been able to make appointments with a physiotherapist because of the venue. After returning home, he would definitely adhere to a strict physiotherapy schedule, and coupled with enough exercise, playing in the 5v5 wasnt a problem at all. As for the solo competition Lu Feng wanted to hand it over to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao liked solo and was also good at solo. If he polished up his skills a bit, he would definitely get good results this year. As for the doubles Wei Xiao and Bai Cai were very suited to play the doubles. However, all of this couldnt be said after Wei Xiao asked why?. The corners of Wei Xiaos mouth tightened, his bright black eyes dimming slightly. His voice also grew quiet, This year, Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun will both sign up. They want to solo with you, but you arent going to compete? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao looked at him, as though wanting to see the real emotions behind his calm expression, Youve always been looking forward to it, havent you? Wanting to have a real fight with them! The old Team of Gods had left behind countless regrets. Close had stayed in FTW, while the others all went their separate ways. They couldnt be teammates because of their lingering guilt and uneasiness, and they werent even opponents then. The Close whod been left behind, the Close whod been forgotten, the Close who was eager to be recognized. His title as the three-year singles champion couldnt match up to this years solo game! Wei Xiao didnt believe that Lu Feng didnt want to compete! Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He Didnt he want to prove himself to them?! Close, whod chosen to stick with it, to stay behind, to guard and protect FTW, didnt he want to show them his faith and beliefs with his own strength?! After waiting for three years and finally getting this opportunity that hadnt been easy to come by, why did he want to give it up? Wei Xiaos tight voice trembled slightly, Captain, I dont need you to do this for me. Lu Fengs heart trembled, and he felt like hed been hit by a soft sledgehammerCC It didnt hurt, it only felt numb. The tip of Wei Xiaos nose felt sour, and his eyes were also slightly red, I dont want to participate in the singles competition. I just like soloing with you. Hed thought back and forth, and could only think of this reason. There was a quota limit for the singles competition, and only one person from each club could sign up. If Lu Feng signed up, then Wei Xiao wouldnt be able to compete. The captain wanted to give him this chance. But Wei Xiao leaned in close, Id rather see you compete. I want to see you win against Yuan Ze, win against Kim Sung-hyun, see you win the championship! Hed rather see Lu Feng fulfil his dreams, wanted to see him finally see the rainbow that came after the wind and rain, wanted to see him try his best and leave no regrets! These unspoken, unfinished words were all transformed into a voice that came from the heart, conveying themselves all the way to the bottom of Lu Fengs heart. Lu Feng heard it. I Lu Fengs voice was slightly hoarse, and every word seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, I value the team competition more, and well also meet them in the 5v5 games. Wei Xiao picked up his hand and rubbed his own cheek against it, Youre lying. The youths soft voice, his cat-like attitude, all broke through Lu Fengs camouflage. Wei Xiao looked at him, Captain. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao: I know you care for me, but I also care about you. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao: You sign up this year, and Ill sign up next year, okay? The words that were already at the tip of Lu Fengs tongue couldnt be spoken out. He couldnt let down people who were so good to him. The haze that was pressing down on Wei Xiaos heart dissipated slightly, and his tone returned to normal. He even acted coquettish with Lu Feng, You really cant miss out on this year. How old is Old Dog Yuan now? Maybe hell retire after playing this year. When that happens, how will you find him to hammer him? The more Wei Xiao spoke, the more he felt that his words were reasonable, We cant let him be so arrogant. Hes still the singles competition champion from 17. If you dont win against him this year, hell really think that hes the worlds number one solo player! You cant let him daydream all day long. Wei Xiao looked up at him, We should let him wake up and sober up. After hearing this, the corners of Lu Fengs lips curved briefly, You can also win against him. Wei Xiao was unhappy with this, How is that the same! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao cleared his throat and explained for himself, Im not afraid of him, hey, its just that you guys should really settle things for once and for all. Settle things. The former Team of Gods really did need to settle things between them. Otherwise, Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun wouldnt have signed up for the singles competition three years later. Lu Feng dropped his gaze, Mm. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up, Youre not going to try and split hairs again? Lu Feng held his hand, Come here. Wei Xiaos actions were familiar as he wrapped his arms around his neck. Lu Feng wrapped his arms around his waist and didnt kiss him, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: Hm? Lu Feng said softly, I like you. Wei Xiao: ! Why was he suddenly confessing? His heart had almost jumped right out of his chest! Lu Feng leaned in closer to him and continued to speak in a low, sexy voice, I like you. Wei Xiaos face flushed red, Captain Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao kissed him, then said, Youre the one who seduced me first! The captain was too, too wicked! Wei Xiao obtained many, many sweet and honeyed kisses, but he still had a nightmare that night. In his dream, he stood outside a door, guarding it tightly, unable to get in, and unable to go out. Outside was a precipice, and the inside of the door was empty. Wei Xiao was holding on desperately to the door frame, and he didnt know what he was trying hard to do. There was an abyss in front of him, and a dark hell behind him. What exactly was he holding on to? When he woke up from the dream, Wei Xiaos forehead was covered in cold sweat. Why was he having this dream again? Sure enough, the captain had given him a scare. Ahhhh Wei Xiao clutched at his hair and calmed himself down, Its okay, its okay, nothing will happen! Wei Xiao tried to boost himself up while he was brushing his teeth, and he managed to shake off the nightmare by the time he had finished washing up and gargling. Soybean wasnt in the room and had likely gone out to go wild. After taking a look at the time, Wei Xiao was very upset with himself: Hed gotten up late again and hadnt managed to go for a run with the captain that morning. Sure enough, sports was an e-sports players biggest natural enemy. He really didnt know how the captain managed to stick with it. As soon as Wei Xiao thought of Lu Feng, his heart was filled with both sweetness and happiness. He strolled out to have some breakfast, thinking about his school suspension. Brother Cai and the others had all gone home, and the big base was empty and devoid of people. Wei Xiao sat at the long table eating sandwiches and drinking watermelon juice. Hed told Bai Cai that he would ask the captain to accompany him home, but when the time arrived, he found he couldnt open his mouth to ask. Forget it. He would take care of this small thing on his own! The captain was so busy, he couldnt depend on him for everything. Wei Xiao reflected on himself. It was probably because hed been too short of love when he was young that he was so sticky when he fell in love now. The captain was also particularly indulgent towards him, giving him many chances to grow increasingly insatiable. It couldnt go on like this. Wei Xiao felt that the reason why the captain would give up the solo competition was completely because of him. Hed shown too much eagerness, which was why the captain would give him the spot from the quota. The captain cared about him, and he also cared about the captain. This wasnt just something that was spoken verbally, it was also about practical actions! Wei Xiao decided that hed deal with the school suspension on his own. In the future, he had to keep himself in check and not give the captain any additional burdens. Wei Xiao found it boring to eat alone, so he casually scrolled through Weibo. Coincidentally, hed just received a @ tag. RR.Moonlit: @FTW.Quiet, come solo. Wei Xiao tsked and replied, Youre back? Moonlit: Yeah. Wei Xiao: Have a good rest and fix up your jet lag. Moonlit: Solo. Wei Xiaox heart was itchy, but he suppressed it, No. Moonlit: ? Wei Xiao: I wont solo anymore in the future. Moonlit: ??? Wei Xiao gritted his teeth, Ive given it up. Damn it, after saying these words, he could feel his heart, liver, and lungs all twinging with pain. Hed given it up, given up solo for the sake of love. Laozi was really a patron saint for love! The author has something to say: Believe in them, muah. xiin: the author says to believe in them~ everything will be okay! Chapter 96: This was the most willful thing that Wei Xiao had ever done in his life. Wei Xiaos previous interactions with Moonlit had always been through Bai Cai. As the grandmaster, hed just been responsible for playing. Brother Cai would contact the players, then he would go, play, and earn money when he was done. Their relationship was simple and clearCC Oh, this was Wei Xiaos one-sided perspective. All the players that hed played with would always think of him and never forget him. They would chase after Brother Cai, wanting to get his contact information. Brother Cai would think about it for a while, then answer, Trade secret. He couldnt give it out. It wasnt because he was worried that he wouldnt be able to make his commission as a middleman, but because he was afraid that the grandmaster would end up surrounded and beaten up offline. Brother Cai didnt have many friends. If he lost this one, he wouldnt have another one to replace him with. Later on, Wei Xiaos identity was revealed, and the winter training camp had started immediately afterwards. Out of the entire China competition zone, only 3U and FTW were grouped up together. Asleep had gotten Wei Xiaos contact information a long time ago, but the Moonlit whod been assigned to Group B naturally didnt have it. That was why Moonlit had gone through Weibo and shouted out to Wei Xiao. Hed originally thought that Wei Xiao would agree, but unexpectedly, he was refused again and again. Moonlit wasnt very talkative, and his Weibo situation was comparable to Asleeps. The fans from both sides competed dailyCC [ Did you see? My familys Moon only said two words! ] [ Tch, my Sleep only sent out a single letter! ] The fans were even able to start up a battle over such a thing; it was unknown which group of fans everyone should feel distressed for. A player who was so handicapped with words went on to say a long segment of words to Wei Xiao, Why arent you soloing anymore? Why give it up? Two sentences, two question marks, it was enough for Moonlit fans to celebrate like it was the New Year! Wei Xiao wanted to answer without mincing his words, Dont ask, if you ask, then its because I only want to solo with my boyfriend. Ah, unfortunately, he couldnt say boyfriend! Wei Xiaos heart quivered. He forwarded Moonlits Weibo post. His words were simple, direct, and to the point, cutting off his own path of retreat. He didnt want to solo with anyone! In the future, he would become the captains exclusive sandbag, one that could only be used by the captain. [ FTW.Quiet: Solo, what solo? In the future, Ill be focusing on the team competition and wont be soloing anymore. @RR.Moonlit ] After sending out this Weibo message, Wei Xiaos heart felt empty and hollow. Forget it, nobody could compare with his captain, even the Moonlit whod grown at the speed of light and won against God Xie couldnt compare to a single hair on his captains head! Wei Xiao clearly didnt know how to smoke, but he somehow still experienced the feeling of quitting smoking. It was hard; it made him want to scratch at his heart and lungs. His Weibo post instantly drew a large amount of traffic and attention. The winter training camp was over, and there was still a few days before the regular season began. Everyone was idle and bored, and they were immediately amused when they saw this post. Whats wrong with the grandmaster? The man whod hammered half of the Glory circle into exploding is now trying to wash himself clean? ??? Is the grandmaster cowering? If youre afraid, just say it straight. Why use the team competition as an excuse? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Quiet, what happened to your momentum and aura during the live broadcast? Dont cower. My Moon God won against God Xie, what about you, Grandmaster? Oh, you were hammered into seclusion by Daddy Hyun. Backing down when faced with difficulties, not bad, Grandmaster. These remarks couldnt shake Wei Xiaos resolve. It was all on the internet, and there were fans and haters. In any case, it was just a matter of knocking out words on the keyboard, they could say whatever they want to say, and whoever took it seriously would be the loser. Wei Xiao wasnt angry at all and leisurely sipped at his watermelon juice. Then, a question mark party began to appear on his Weibo. First came 3Us Asleep, ? Then came TPTs Eurostar, ?? Then came the new generation who hadnt yet made a name for themselves, BLUE and Xia Dan and the others, ??????? Professional players all had their accounts certified on Weibo. As soon as they showed up, the netizens whod already been flustered all exploded into noise again. F*ck, the grandmaster is really capable. The white moonlight of Glory, locked in. About that is soloing with him so amazing? Why are they all unable to stop thinking about it. Previous poster, how do you feel when you lose mahjong? Of course I would want to win it back! So Indeed, this was how much the players couldnt forget about the grandmaster, it was really like playing mahjong. If they lost a game, then they had to win it back! Dispersing after losing a game, how could they not feel anxious? Wei Xiao had already said everything that should be said, and hed already started giving up on the things that needed to be given up on. He simply exited out of Weibo. He finished the watermelon juice in one go, then decided that he should go and get his official business dealt with. Go home, see Wei Quan, and finish the school suspension process. Perhaps the conversation hed had with Lu Feng last night had stimulated Wei Xiao, because he didnt feel so much resistance towards going home anymore. Sure enough, all sorts of feelings would arise from being indulged by someone else. It was just going home, what was so hard about it? Wei Xiao wasnt polite as he mentally disdained himself: It was still the captain that was too good to him, causing him to become so delicate and finicky. Wei Xiao thought about Lu Feng on the way back home. Thinking about him filled his heart with warmth, and even the cold feeling that rose up from his fear of going home gradually faded away. When he arrived at the door to the house, Wei Xiao rang the doorbell. Li Su was the one to open the door. She was stunned when she saw Wei Xiao, Little Xiao! Wei Xiao called out a polite greeting, Mom. This should be the most familiar, closest, and warmest form of address, but it was instead as cold as addressing a stranger. Li Su was pleasantly surprised, but she was also somewhat at a loss, Youre back, um, did you eat yet? I Wei Xiao got straight to the point, Ive eaten. I came back because theres something I need to ask you for help with. Polite, formulaic, and undisguised alienation. Li Sus expression dimmed, Whats the matter? Your fathers gone to work and hasnt come back yet. The word work sounded particularly harsh in Wei Xiaos ears. Before he turned 17, hed dreamed that his parents would live a normal life and work from nine to five like other peoples parents. But they hadnt seen his parents all year around. Now, when he was already thoroughly disappointed, Wei Quan had started going to work. How ironic. Wei Xiao closed his eyes briefly, then quickly pulled out the document, Im applying for a school suspension. It requires a parents signature. Li Su was stunned. She could read and could understand what was on the document, but it was such a big matter, How about waiting for your father to come back and have him Wei Xiao didnt make a sound, his pair of black eyes looking at her silently. Li Sus heart clenched and she quickly said, I Ill do it. Wei Xiao: Yeah. After signing the document, Wei Xiao dropped his gaze, Im leaving. Li Sus mouth opened, her eyes filled with appeal, but she couldnt say anything. Wei Xiao didnt look at her again. When the door closed, Li Su sat down abruptly, covering her eyes with her hands, Im sorry, Im really sorry. FTW Base, fifth floor. The midday sun shone brightly outside the window, sprinkling over the carpet like a layer of dazzling gold. The room was bright, but the atmosphere inside was heavy and depressing. Chen Fengs left hand tapped lightly on the sofa, his eyebrows drawn tightly together, You want to have Wei Xiao sign up for the singles competition? There was a single person sofa on the other side of the black-brown coffee table. Lu Feng looked as tall and long-legged as usual as he sat on the sofa. His clean shaven face held a calm and steadiness that was inconsistent with his age, Yes. A ray of sunlight just happened to fall on his shoulder, outlining the fit lines of his body that the dark shirt couldnt hide. Chen Feng was very worried, I acknowledge Wei Xiaos ability, but he really lacks experience. Lu Feng replied calmly, Experience is accumulated constantly over time. Chen Feng: Thats the theory, but he just joined the team this year, and you want him to play in the team competition, the singles competition, and the doubles competition. Can he hold up? Lu Feng paused, The doubles competition can be optional. Chen Feng did have some ideas in mind. He said, I suggest that you still take part in the singles competition. If Wei Xiao has excess capacity, he can sign up for the doubles competition with Bai Cai. This was the most secure solution for the current FTW. There was no need to mention the team competition, where FTW wanted to be first even in their dreams. As long as Close took part in the singles competition, the singles championship was stable. As for the doubles competition, the players could sign up and give it a try if they were interested. It would be a pretty good experience for them. However, the proposal that Lu Feng had given today had completely overturned Chen Fengs planCC Have Wei Xiao participate in the singles competition? Wasnt this the same as giving up the global singles competition? Why! Chen Feng sighed softly and asked Lu Feng, Have you asked Wei Xiao about what he wants? Lu Fengs gaze dropped slightly. Staring at the thoroughly cold cup of white tea on the coffee table. Chen Feng had followed him for so many years. How could he not understand? He doesnt agree, right?! He just knew it! Little Lunatic Wei might be crazy obsessed with solo, but even a matter as big as the sky couldnt compare to Close. If Lu Feng gave him his spot in the singles competition, he definitely wouldnt accept it. To tell the truth, Chen Feng himself couldnt accept it. This year was too different. Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun had both signed up for the singles competition, and it was rumored that Xie He also planned to participate. The Team of Gods had gathered together, but Close was giving it up. What was this! Was the Close whod won the championship for three years afraid? Would Close, whod held up the collapsing building all by himself, shrink back? After waiting for such a long time, theyd finally ushered in the opportunity to determine the worlds number one player, but he was running away! If Close wasnt in this years singles competition, how could FTW come to terms with it? It wasnt just the present FTW, but also the past FTW. Not only the FTW players, but also the FTW fans. So many people, so many hearts, such heavy expectations. Other than Close, who else could live up to it?! Thats it. Lu Feng ended the topic, speaking in a tone that didnt invite any questions. He leaned back in his chair, avoiding the sunshine, and his manner was even heavier than before, Ill talk with Wei Xiao. Chen Feng: Lu Feng was calm, Hell agree. He couldnt tell everyone, but he would tell Wei Xiao. The things that he couldnt let anyone else know, he had to let Wei Xiao know. No matter how hard it was to speak up, he still had to say it. Fortunately, there was still time. He could take things slowly. Chen Feng sighed again, then stood up and went out. Lu Feng sat alone in the huge office, his dark eyes staring at the ceiling. He knew about all the unfinished words that Chen Feng wanted to say, butCC He was the one who least wanted to give up. He was the one who least wanted to disappoint everyone. He was also the one who was the most afraid of making Wei Xiao cry. After Wei Xiao got into the taxi, the breath that seemed stuck in his chest reluctantly loosened up somewhat. The document was signed, and all that was left was to go to the school and go through the procedures. These things would have to wait until the work week started again, so it would be the day after tomorrow before they could be processed. The hardest part was over, and the rest was very simple. Wei Xiao leaned back in the back seat of the car. He really missed the captain. He missed him particularly and wanted to see him right now. Wei Xiao took out his cell phone, and his slender fingers stopped just before they landed on the surface of his phone Be a little more promising! Wei Xiao scolded himself, then exited out of the call interface. DingCC The cell phone hed tossed onto the back seat rang. Wei Xiao picked up the cell phone and saw the message hed received. Lu Feng: You went out? It was a simple three words, but the high wall that Wei Xiao had forcibly erected disintegrated, Captain Lu Feng called him. Wei Xiao immediately connected the call. Lu Fengs voice seemed to carry an electric current that went through the microphone and poked straight at his heart, Whats the matter? Wei Xiao was silent. Lu Feng sat up straight, You went home? The mood that Wei Xiao had propped up collapsed into a mess, Yeah. Lu Fengs voice that had always been calm now held a trace of anxiousness, Why didnt you wait for me? Wei Xiaos voice trembled, Captain He didnt say anything, didnt mention a single word, only called out captain, and only uttered a single yeah, but the Lu Feng who was dozens of miles away understood. He knew that hed gone home, knew that he was miserable, knew that he wanted to cry. Lu Feng had already gone downstairs, Send me your location. Wei Xiao: Im in a taxi. Lu Feng: Location. Wei Xiao: Ill be at the base soon. Lu Feng: Be obedient. These two words were very gentle, like a bonfire in the ice and snow, so warm that it made the tip of his nose grow sour. Wei Xiao sent him his location. This was the most willful thing that Wei Xiao had ever done in his life. It was just a little more than an hours drive, and it was just a few tens of kilometers, and he was even already on a taxi on the way back But hed been willful and had sent his position to Lu Feng. Wei Xiao suddenly recalled a memory from his childhood. At the time, hed only been five years old and had only just learned to make phone calls. Hed dialed the number hed memorized in his heart and heard his mothers voice, Be good, Little Xiao, when the new year comes, father and mother will come back and pick you up. Wei Xiao was really looking forward to it; he was looking forward to it so much to the point where he was counting on his fingers as he waited every day. Waiting for his father to come back, waiting for his mother to come back, waiting for his family to celebrate the new year together. However, theyd put up the new year couplets, hung up the lanterns, and released the firecrackers, but his parents still hadnt come back. From then on, Wei Xiao never thought of having someone come pick him up. Now Lu Feng came to pick him up, and hed compressed an hours journey into 20 minutes, shortening a road that spanned dozens of kilometers by two thirds. Just to get to him early. The author has something to say: Lets give some brief spoilers! 1 C Hell definitely tell Wei Xiao, but Captain Lus personality isnt the type where he can say it as soon as he opens his mouth, and he needs to take it slowly. 2 C Close wont have any lasting regrets, Im his genuine mother [crazy hinting] xiin: *cuddles them both* Chapter 97: Physiotherapist Through location sharing, when the two people were about to meet, Wei Xiao called for the taxi driver to stop. The weather was still cold in February. Wei Xiao wasnt wearing much, and when he got out of the car, he took in a breath of the cold air and shivered. There was a silver-gray Rolls Royce Cullinan stopped on the narrow provincial highway up ahead. The Rolls Royce SUV had rigid lines, a long body, and a high roof. Ordinary people would seem dwarfed when they stood beside it, but for Lu Feng, it was just right. He was wearing a dark brown trench coat with a black turtleneck sweater inside. His hands were slender, a pale white outside his sleeves, and he held a black cell phone between his fingers. The colors were cold, his face was unsmiling, and he seemed to be three points icier than the winter around him. However, when he cast gaze in Wei Xiaos direction, Wei Xiao felt like he was instantly surrounded by a melting warmth. The warmth collided with the cold air stuck in his chest, causing it to evaporate into water vapor that went straight into his eye sockets. Wei Xiao didnt have any attention left to spare on the fact that they were on the side of the road. He ignored the traffic, took advantage of the Cullinans height, and hugged Lu Feng, Captain Lu Fengs voice was very low, Yes. Wei Xiao buried his face against his neck, the emotions in his heart so intense that he could only form five words, I want to kiss you. Lu Feng: . It was okay when he hadnt said that, but once he said it, the sweetness and sourness in Wei Xiaos chest couldnt be suppressed any more. He wanted to hold him tight, lean against him, kiss him, and he wanted to hug him like this forever. Acting spoiled was addictive, especially when there was someone indulging him like this. Wei Xiao stealthily touched the skin beneath Lu Fengs collar. It couldnt be considered a kiss; it was just sticking his cool lips against Lu Fengs warm neck. Lu Feng inhaled lightly, Little Xiao. Wei Xiao refused to let him go, Nobody will see. He didnt dare to kiss, but it was too hard to do nothing at all. The hand that Lu Feng had wrapped around his waist loosened, and he pulled the rear door open slightly. Wei Xiao heard it, Wait a bit. Hed hug a little more. Who couldve known that Lu Fengs left hand would exert force, pushing him into the back seat? The interior of the car was very spacious, especially the back seat that could almost be called a bed. Wei Xiao didnt sit down inside; he was toppled inside. He leaned directly against the right side door and window, Eh Lu Feng inserted one knee between his legs and kissed him on the lips. Wei Xiao: ! The back doors were closed, and the windows tinted. Now, nobody could see them. In the warm space in the interior of the car, there were only warm and eager kisses. No matter how spacious the car was, there were still two people squeezed together in the back seat. However, that didnt matter. The closer they were, the better. It would be best if there was no distance between them at all. After the car started on the road, Wei Xiao sat in the front passengers seat and tidied up his clothes. Captain He took advantage of how Lu Feng was driving and turned off the filter on his mouth again, You scared me just now. Lu Fengs slender fingers held the steering wheel, and he looked straight ahead. Wei Xiao glanced at him secretly and lamented, I thought you were going to do me in the car. Lu Feng: . The emergency braking made Wei Xiao cry out. Fortunately, hed secured his seatbelt properly. Lu Feng stopped the car by the side of the road and looked at him, Do you want to go back to the base? Wei Xiaos eyes bent, No. Lu Feng raised his eyebrows. Wei Xiao sneakily hooked his fingers around the ones that were wrapped around the gear stick, I want to go home. He accentuated his tone, biting down on the word home. He didnt want to go back to the base, he wanted to go home. This home was their home, it was FTW. Lu Feng couldnt hold back in the face of his seriousness. He flipped his hand to intertwine his fingers with Wei Xiaos disobedient ones. Wei Xiaos lips curved in a smile. After returning to the base, Wei Xiao handed off the signed materials to Xiang Liu. After that, he still needed to make a trip to the school, and then his school suspension would be settled. Wei Xiao felt a sense of relief. Hed dealt with everything that needed to be dealt with, and all that was left was to concentrate on the upcoming fights. The regular season, the playoffs, the domestic finals, and even the global games. In this years Glory competition, Wei Xiao must make sure that FTW was engraved on the championship trophy! Holidays always felt short. Three days seemed to pass by in the blink of an eye. Except for making a trip out to his university, Wei Xiao never set foot outside of the base again. When Lu Feng was busy with his work, he would rank on his own. When Lu Feng came downstairs, he would cling to Lu Feng and double queue. Occasionally, when his heart was itchy, he would play a few rounds of solo with his captain, but he made sure not to play too much. The sweet and cloying world for two was broken apart when Brother Cai pushed open the door. Wei Xiao had never disliked this vegetable stalk as much as he did now, Why did you come back so early! Hed never seen him go back to school so actively when they were studying. Bai Cai was startled, Laozi loves the club and wanted to come back to the team early. Its enough that youre not praising me, but youre even disdaining me? Sorry, but Wei Xiao had already fallen in love with the empty club. How great was it to have nobody else around? He and the captain could kiss wherever they want. Now they had to hide and sneak around. Well, hiding and sneaking around was also quite exciting. Wei Xiao helped Brother Cai carry one of his bags, Did you put stones in this? Why was it so heavy! Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Its for you. Wei Xiao: ??? Brother Cai: If you dont want it, then forget it. Wei Xiao pulled open the zipper and saw several green and glistening dark beauties. Damn, Brother Cai, youre pretty good. Bai Cai said reservedly, I just saw them by the roadside and casually bought a few. This beast couldve chosen to like eating anything, yet he loved eating watermelon. This kind of thing wasnt expensive, but it was really heavy. God knew how hed carried these three watermelons back from his hometown. Wei Xiao saw through him, These were produced near your area, right? Bai Cai: Wei Xiaos heart was happy, Thank you, God Bai, Im going to send out a Weibo post and show some love. Brother Vegetable: Hed always felt that something wasnt right oh, he knew what it was! He quickly called out, Like hell youre going to show some love, Laozi doesnt love you! Wei Xiao: Mm-hmm. You dont, you dont. You just love me very much. Bai Cai: Hed seen people who were shameless before, but hed never seen someone this shameless. He was so tired he wanted to die. He started unpacking even as he went upstairs, and half an hour had already passed by the time he was done. Brother Cai looked around at his clean and tidy bedroom, and his heart felt very comfortable. Great! Bai Cai lay down on the bed, wanting to take a nap, and then He abruptly opened his eyes, inexplicably recalling the captains chilly gaze from earlier. The alarm on Brother Cais radar went off, and he rushed to Wei Xiaos bedroom, Dont f*cking send out random Weibo posts! Wei Xiao wasnt in his room. Brother Cai was flustered. Brat, dont pull aggro onto Laozi. If you f*cking show love with me, wont the captain get jealous?! If the captain got jealous, would he be expelled and evicted?! Brother Cai was really worthy of being the Gossip Emperors true body. His ability to make such things up in his head was equivalent to ten other peoples put together. Bai Cai couldnt find Wei Xiao and could only click open his Weibo to see what Wei Xiao had sent out. Dont have posted it, please dont have posted it, Beast Wei, please act like a human! And then Bai Cai saw the post. The corners of his lips twitched, and his eyes were almost blinded. Wei Xiao had indeed sent out a Weibo, and it had been sent out just one minute ago. It was indeed a show of love, and it was also related to watermelons, and Brother Cais name also appeared. However! FTW.Quiet: The watermelon that Brother Cai brought back is really sweet, isnt it, captain? @FTW.Close. Below that was an accompanying photo. There was nobody in the photo, just a slender hand with distinct finger bones and pale skin. It was lightly and skillfully holding a silver fork, like a work of art. There was a piece of red watermelon on the silver fork. The juices were very clear, and it was obviously filled with sweetness. There was nobody in the photo, but this positioning was like the fork was feeding someone a bite of watermelon. Combined with the Weibo text content Brother Cai threw aside his cell phone and was very zen: He had been the fool for worrying blindly. There had been a show of love, the watermelon had been eaten, and Brother Cais name was on Weibo. But, he was just a foil! Wei Xiao was clearly showing love with the captain! The first comment beneath the Weibo post was from Close. It was a simple message with just a single word, Sweet. There were always some people who didnt speak much and treated words like gold, but had the power to blow up the entire internet with a single word. CCClose sweet. A new hot search term rose up at the speed of light just like this. Wei Xiao was delighted as he ate the watermelon, Brother Liu, badass, you took an amazing photo. Xiang Liu: I dont want to be this badass! The hand was Closes, and the person being fed was Wei Xiao. Xiang Liu had taken photos of the entire process. Neither of them were in the camera, but this business demon had a very good understanding on exactly how to handle it. A panoramic shot showing their gazes was too much, so they could only look at each other secretly, and the screenshot they sent out after editing was very magical. Wei Xiao couldnt stop looking at it, Captain, your hand is too good looking! Lu Feng was helping him remove watermelon seeds, Dont eat too much, its cold. Wei Xiao nodded repeatedly, Three more pieces! Lu Feng: Two pieces. Wei Xiao: Then, Ill just eat one piece. Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiao finished his words, Feed me. Xiang Liu: He shouldnt be here, he should be beneath the table! Lu Feng wasnt hiding anything from Xiang Liu, but he also wouldnt do anything to Wei Xiao in front of him, Dont eat any, then. Wei Xiao: Sigh Hed been too bratty. Now, there was no watermelon, and no kisses! At this time, Xiang Lius cell phone rang. It seemed to be a WeChat message. After he looked at it, he spoke to Lu Feng, Doctor Chen is here. Lu Feng set down the silver fork and answered, Okay. Wei Xiao heard this and asked curiously, Doctor Chen? Xiang Liu explained, Our teams physiotherapist. You havent met her before, right? Wei Xiao got it, Ohhhh! In the e-sports circle where occupational diseases were rampant, basically every club had physiotherapists and psychological counsellors. A team like FTW that was rich and loved its players naturally had them too. Before, in the winter training camp, they hadnt accompanied the team because it was only a 15 day trip. Now that the domestic competition was about to start, the behind the scenes logistics team was fully in place. Wei Xiao was very curious, Does physiotherapy hurt? Xiang Liu: He snuck a peak at Lu Feng, his heart beating like a drum. He didnt know if it hurt. Hed never had it done before, but hed seen it being done. Before, Lu Feng would avoid everyone when he had to do physiotherapy, and Xiang Liu was the only insider who knew the situation. Lu Feng never made a sound, and his breathing was steady and stable. It was only when the physiotherapy was over that his pale face and the sweat on his forehead would expose his pain. An injury was being pressed and kneaded; it would be a lie to say that it wasnt painful. When it came to rehabilitation physiotherapy, how could it have an effect if it wasnt painful? Lu Feng stood up and pinched Wei Xiaos wrist joint with his fingers. Wei Xiao made a muffled grunt, Itchy. He was itchy all over; when Lu Feng touched him, everywhere he touched would itch. Lu Feng exerted a little force, pressing the pad of his finger into one of his acupoints, Does it hurt? A numb, tingling feeling spread through his entire forearm. Wei Xiao shook his head, It doesnt hurt at all. It felt quite comfortable. Lu Feng released him, Dont worry, preventative physical therapy doesnt hurt. Wei Xiao rubbed his own wrist lightly, Captain, youre so amazing, you even know how to do this. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao felt that he couldnt fall behind. He thought to himself: Wait until I learn it properly! Ill give the captain a full body massage! Wei Xiao was the active type. That afternoon, when the whole team was doing preventative physiotherapy, Wei Xiao modestly asked for advice. Doctor Chen was a middle-aged woman, and she was very fond of such a handsome young man who had a sweet mouth and good laugh, and answered anything she was asked. The author has something to say: Little Xiao, its better if you dont learn. Im afraid your captain wont be able to stand it. [] xiin: *sipping on watermelon juice* Chapter 98: A little bit closer. Wei Xiaos brain was very good, and he remembered things very quickly. As he was having his wrist, shoulder, and spine massaged, hed really memorized many things. Doctor Chen praised him, Really smart. Wei Xiaos lips curved in a smile, Its because you teach well. Doctor Chen became even more attentive when she spoke with him. The Brother Cai who was to the side was dumbfounded. He thought to himself that Wei Xiao was really able to take down men, women, the young, and the old; was there anyone he couldnt coax?! He asked Wei Xiao, What are you learning this for? Wei Xiao: Learning more never hurts. Brother Cai: Do you even want to be a physiotherapist after you retire? Wei Xiao thought about it, Its not impossible Thinking about being a physiotherapist for his boyfriend was quite exciting, what should he do?! Brother Cai rolled his eyes, You really have a wide range of interests. Teaching and educating people, hammering people in e-sports, providing physical therapy Brother Xiao was a real character, he really didnt act like a human. The end of the holiday and the team physiotherapy C all of this heralded the start of the competition season. With the intensive development of training competitions, the sleepless nights that belonged to internet addicted youths had officially begun. The training plan that Chen Feng gave to the players was actually quite scientific. They were to gather in the training room at 10:30AM to collect their individualized tasks for the day that needed to be completed in their free time. Training matches began at 1PM. Depending on the arrangements, they might run until until 7PM. After 7PM was the time when their coach would go over the game replays. The specific duration would depend on the level of the players mistakes and Coach Chens mood. If he was in a bad mood, it would be three hours. If he was in a good mood, it would be two hours and 59 minutes. Yes, this was what e-sports was like. They had to race against the clock. Then came their free time, where the players also had to complete their live broadcast quota for the month. FTW treated them quite well. The minimum time for live broadcast was 18 hours. If they were short on money, they could broadcast for longer (with a higher profit percentage), but they couldnt exceed 30 hours a month. Although it was free time, Chen Feng, as a top coach in China, had his own set of methods. He would make a personal training plan for each of the starters every day. They were all different, targeted for the player, and extremely systematic. Back then, Yue Wenle had just been brought into the team by Bai Cai. Other than his recklessness, everything else could be considered shortcomings. Chen Feng had only trained him up for a month, but God Le was now able to make rapid progress. His frost hunter had now won a position in the ban spots of the BP link for the domestic competitions. Wei Xiao was very eager to give it a try and was very much looking forward to Chen Fengs private, individualized training plan. Until he got his first training plan on the first day. Wei Xiao: Chen Feng: What? Wei Xiao waved the A4 piece of paper in his hand, Just this? Chen Feng: Just that. Wei Xiaos personal training plan was simple and clear. It could basically be divided into the following three itemsCC First, double queue with Bai Cai. Second, double queue with Yue Wenle. Third, double queue with Ning Zhehan. Wei Xiao was incredulous, What about the captain! How come he had to double queue with everyone else, but the captain wasnt included! Chen Feng squinted at him, Do you still need me to make arrangements for you to double queue with Close? As someone who wished that they could stick to the captain and never sleep, was it still necessary to write it into the plan? Typing was very tiring, okay? Wei Xiao: Wei Xiao looked at Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenles meticulous, densely packed personal training plans and was very unconvinced, Coach, I feel that youre just being perfunctory with me. Chen Fengs face was cold, Hand it over. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up, Exactly, hey, this plan is too rough, it should still have As he spoke, he watched as Chen Feng added a line of text in handwriting that looked like a line of dogs crawling over the paper, its ugliness on the same level as as Coach Chens devil posterCC Fourth, double queue time with Close should not exceed two hours. Wei Xiao: He suspected that the coach was targeting him, and he even had enough evidence to support it! Objectively speaking, Wei Xiaos individual training plan was something that the entire coaching team had pondered over. This kid He was too good. Throughout the winter training, hed played in many games, including games against global strong teams. Every game, every segment, at every point in time, hed done the best that he could. It was actually quite a scary thing. In a match that lasted 40 to 50 minutes, it was normal for players to make mistakes, and it was more incredible to not make any mistakes at all. However, Wei Xiao really was such a player. His rhythm, speed, and efficiency in the jungle were all very high; His gank consciousness, judgement, and timing were all extremely accurate; His personal operations were also at an extremely high level. He could always play out the ultimate damage with his existing farm If a problem really had to be pointed out, then Wei Xiao had exposed some shortcomings during the games against Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun. However, these shortcomings. Even Chen Feng, who was good at training and planning, couldnt make up for these shortcomings through just personal training. These shortcomings could only be constantly tried and corrected during competitions and through continuous understanding. There were no shortcuts there. In the end, the coaching teams advice wasCC Avoid making Quiet into the next Close. The team had to grow together. What Wei Xiao needed to do the most was to cultivate tacit understanding with his teammates. And his teammates would also be able to get used to his rhythm through playing double queue games with him. As FTWs new jungler, Wei Xiao had the ability to control the rhythm of the game, and his teammates also should have the ability to keep up with his rhythm. Days that were busy and packed always passed quickly. It seemed that in the blink of an eye, there was only two or three days before the opening of the regular season. After eight days of open-hearted study, Wei Xiao felt that hed gained a sense for massage and therapy. Doctor Chen was massaging his wrist, The theory is there, but the technique still needs practice. Bai Cai, who was to the side, rolled his eyes: Beast Wei is really capable, he even managed to fool Doctor Chen into accepting him as an external disciple. It was likely that Ms. Chen herself didnt understand how shed started teaching a promising e-sports player how to massage! These words moved Wei Xiao, Yeah, I need to practice. Brother Cai tilted his head to look at him, Sir Xiao, you can do as you like, but dont try to practice on me. Wei Xiao looked at his thin arms and legs with disdain, Dream on! If he was going to practice, hed look for the captain. The captains wrists, forearms, shoulders, spine, chest, abdomen Couch, cough, hed gotten a little distracted. Massages probably didnt include the chest and abdomen, right? FTWs group training generally stopped at around 11 oclock and the rest of their time was free time, but Chen Feng would come to the training room after 2AM. Sleeping too late wasnt conducive to long-term development. These days, Wei Xiao followed Lu Fengs rest schedule. When the captain left the training room, he would follow at his heels. It was too pitiful not to get at least a good nights kiss after working hard for a whole day. Wei Little Xiao couldnt stand this level of grievance! In the evening, Wei Xiao and Lu Feng took Brother Cai along to triple queue. After finishing a game, it just happened to be 10:30PM. Brother Cai was the room master. He asked these two daddies, Another round? This point in time was a little awkward. It was a little too early for the captain to go to sleep, but if they ignored the time and started another game, it would go past his usual bedtime. Lu Feng was just about to speak up when Wei Xiao quickly withdrew from the room, Not playing anymore! Brother Cai: ??? He was afraid that he might be having auditory hallucinations. Lu Feng looked at him, Tired? Wei Xiao licked the corner of his lip, Yeah. His tone fluttered at the end of this word. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao picked up his cell phone and got up, leaving the training room first, See you tomorrow, Brother Cai. Bai Cai waved his hands and buried his head to send out a Weibo message, Lonely vegetable support, online requesting a jungler king. His fans had fun in the comments, Brother Cai has been abandoned again! If it comes to bitterness, its still our Vegetable thats bitter. There are two jungler kings in his team, but he has to go outside to find a jungle king. This pun was very magical. Im a little curious, why did the two jungler kings leave early? Click into the Gossip Emperors Weibo and take a look at FTWs double jungler CP short article. Holy shit, fellow sisters, you guys really dare to think about Close and Quiet, playing together in the canyon, then going to bed to continue fighting in bed? Its hard to say, maybe they act calm in the training room when they double queue, but French kiss outside the training room. Heres a pen, previous poster, quickly go and write a book! Bai Cai was really able to get a jungler king. RRs Captain Mo sent over a team application, and Brother Cai could smell the scent of money! Money: Wheres Quiet? Bai Cai: He went to sleep. Money: So early? Bai Cai was alert, Captain Mo, are you here to take me to rank, or are you digging for information? Money laughed loudly, Im here to give you guys money. When he heard the word money, Brother Cais ears perked up, Captain Mo is so generous. The car was still on its way, yet he was sending more money over? Money spoke thoughtfully, Its like this As soon as Brother Cai heard this, F*ck, he really was sending money over?! He suspected that the base next door was actually built with RMB! Money: Do you think it can be done? Brother Cai patted his chest, Its not a big problem! It had to be said that when one had more fans, there would always be one or two emperors of the truth mixed in amongst the fans. The two people who were well-behaved and proper when they were in the training room, really acted differently outside Wei Xiao pulled Lu Feng towards a corner of the corridor. Lu Feng held his wrist, Back to the room. Wei Xiao stared at him, I cant wait. Lu Feng: . There wasnt much that Wei Xiao wouldnt dare to say, Ive been thinking about it all night, and I dont want to wait even one sec mm His unspoken words, and even his slight moan were stuck between his lips and teeth. Theyd been together all night, but let alone kissing, they hadnt even touched hands. Wei Xiaos tolerance had already been pushed to the extremes at this point! Wei Xiao always spent a lot of time in Lu Fengs room every night, asking for kisses here, asking for kisses there; if he saw Lu Feng working, he wanted a kiss, before sleeping, he needed to be coaxed over and over before he was willing to go back. Lu Feng also indulged him, letting him do whatever he wanted and leaving Wei Xiao satisfied every time, but it still wasnt enough. In the matter of whetting peoples appetite, nobody could match the great demon king. Today, Wei Xiao had come prepared. As soon as they entered the room, he asked, Captain, do you have work to do tonight? Lu Feng looked into his bright eyes, No. Even if he had work to do, he didnt anymore. Wei Xiao said excitedly, Then, go and wash up quickly! Lu Feng dropped his eyes to half mast and looked at him, Are you going back to sleep? Wei Xiao deliberately avoided answering him directly, Not sleeping yet. In short, go and wash up first. Lu Feng: . Lu Feng inhaled lightly, Little Xiao Wei Xiao pushed him into the bathroom, Quickly, its almost 12 oclock. Ill wait for you. The captains biological clock was very accurate. He could sleep as soon as the time came. Lu Feng hesitated for a moment, but didnt say much else, Okay. Wei Xiaos thoughts completely hadnt caught up with his captains adult thoughts yet. He started thinking about how to use Doctor Chens physiotherapy techniques. It wasnt a problem, and it would definitely make the captain happy! Wei Xiao was full of confidence. It didnt take long for Lu Feng to come back out. The bathroom was full of steam. Lu Feng only wore a loosely draped bathrobe, revealing a large expanse of skin on his chest. His slender neck was connected to his perfect jawline, and water drops rolled down from his cheek to drip onto his collarbone. Wei Xiaos heart leapt. After getting used to seeing an icy cold captain, why was this lazy and sexy captain so Lu Feng looked at him, Do you want to wash up? Wei Xiaos face flushed red, Ill wash when I go back. He was done for. The captains voice was deadly. Lu Fengs voice held traces of a smile, Do you want to go to sleep? Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng came close, and the faint fragrance around his body was accompanied by a strong sense of oppression, making Wei Xiao a little dizzy. In fact, Lu Feng didnt do anything. He just looked at him quietly, his gaze moving from his smooth forehead to his trembling eyelashes, to his pale lips. However, Wei Xiao felt as though hed just been scalded, his entire body left tingling and numb. Captain Wei Xiao called out to him lightly. Lu Feng: Mm? Wei Xiaos brain felt feverish, Lets do it. Lu Fengs eyes darkened, and he continued to look at him from such a close distance, Do what? Wei Xiaos mouth was dry. He licked his lower lip, Make love. As soon as the words came out, Lu Feng pressed the back of his head and kissed his lips. His gaze from before seemed like the calm before the storm. In the moment when their lips came into contact, the rainstorm hit, and there was no longer any trace of the previous calm and self control. Lu Feng kissed his beautiful forehead, his trembling eyes, high nose, as well as his beautiful jawline, his neck, his collarbone Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide, his body arching. He couldnt stand the destruction from this level of stimulation, Captain captain A jumble of whispered calls, stickier and more clingy than usual, like a coquettish little cat. Lu Feng waited for him to come back to his senses, then kissed the tip of his delicate nose, Go to sleep early. Wei Xiaos unfocused eyes slowly focused. He looked at Lu Feng, his body still soft, This. Lu Feng, who was forcefully enduring it, couldnt quite bear to hear his voice now. But Wei Xiao always liked to make trouble, This really felt too good! xiin: yes, what you think happened just happened. also, i officially ship Money & Bai Cai. they are just too perfect C the guy who loves money, with the guy whose name is Money~~ Chapter 99: Who can compare with the captain?! Chapter 99 He wasnt a child anymore; it wasnt as though Wei Xiao had never done it to himself before. But this was too different. The captain kissed him, and then that god-like hand ! As soon as Wei Xiao thought about it, he felt like hed been electrified. Lu Feng was already at his limit. When he heard Wei Xiaos words, he almost In some senses, Wei Xiao really wasnt a person. Hed gotten some on his body, so he got up and said, Im going to wash up! It wouldnt be good if he dirtied the captains sheets. Lu Feng: . It wasnt until the sound of water came from the bathroom that Lu Feng took a deep breath and lay down on the silk quilt that still held traces of extra heat. It couldnt be rushed. There was no doubt that Wei Xiaoxiao didnt even know what kinds of things could be done between the two of them. Lu Feng closed his eyes briefly. Wei Xiao was very happy as he took a bath. Heeey, it had felt really good, really exciting. The captains hands were really beautiful. The bones were distinct, they were clean, strong, and flexible. Um Wei Xiao was now a little envious of his mouse and keyboard. Thinking about it made his heart itch. Wei Xiao washed up messily. He couldnt wait to run back out. When Lu Feng heard the sound of footsteps, he turned his head to take a look, then turned his head back quickly. This brat. Wei Xiao had originally wanted to dress up properly after washing up, since Lu Fengs pajamas were still inside. However, after drying off, he thought about how hed be going to bed anyway, and there was no need to do so much. He jumped onto the bed and knelt there on the dark silk. The color contrast carried a strong sense of visual stimulation. Captain! Lu Feng closed his eyes and didnt see a thing. Wei Xiao leaned in close to his ear, Wont you come? Lu Feng opened his eyes. A pair of dark eyes locked onto his. Wei Xiaos eyelashes fluttered, and he was as bold as the heavens, Come on, its great. Lu Feng inhaled lightly, his voice hoarse, No need. He knew what Wei Xiao was talking about, but there was no need. Wei Xiao learned very quickly. His hands were slender and beautiful, and didnt lose out to the worlds number one by much. Lu Feng clasped his wrist. Wei Xiaos eyes curved as he smiled, calling out to him softly, Captain. Lu Feng took another breath and kissed this person who wasnt scared of the heavens or the earth. Wei Xiao was dazed from his kiss, but he still refused to leave. Lu Feng no longer tried to stop him. As the night wore on, the moon hung high outside, and Wei Xiaos aggrieved and pitiful voice drifted around the room. Nobody answered him. Wei Xiaos voice was as sweet as cotton candy, sticky and soft. Lu Feng: . A long time later, Wei Xiao buried himself in the pillow, his voice stuffy, Captain, this also Lu Feng breathed lightly and kissed him on the neck. Wei Xiaos voice trembled, This isnt fair, how come theres such a big time difference between us! Wei Xiao took two baths in one night. Wei Xiao was very dissatisfied with this. Why? When he came, he took a bath. When the captain was done, he still needed to take a bath! Hadnt he lost?! Lu Feng: Go back and sleep. Wei Xiaos eyes were incredulous, Do I still have to go back to my room to sleep? They were already together, yet they had to sleep in separate beds? Lu Feng hadnt been satisfied, but when he faced the Wei Xiaoxiao who was as innocent as a white piece of paper, he really couldnt bring himself to do anything, Go back. Wei Xiao acted shameless, No, I want to sleep here. Lu Feng looked at him, Isnt your hand tired? Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng: Dont your legs hurt? Wei Xiao: Ummm He got it. Lu Feng rubbed his eyebrows, Its one oclock. Theyd been tossing about for so long. The sun would come up soon if they didnt go to sleep now. Wei Xiao still didnt want to leave. He gritted his teeth, Its okay, it might be new at first, but now its familiar. If you still want How could Lu Feng dare to let him stay? Either go downstairs yourself, or Ill carry you down. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng looked at him calmly. Seeing that the captain didnt seem to be joking, Wei Xiao backed down, No need, no need! Ill go down by myself. If he really carried him down, Wei Xiaoxiao would really lose his dignity! After getting dressed and leaving his boyfriends room, Wei Xiao was filled with a huge reluctance. When Soybean saw that his dad was back, it pounced forward to hug him. Wei Xiao disdained him, Why is it that even though Laozi has a boyfriend, I have to hug a single dog like you to sleep! Soybean rubbed its head against him. Wei Xiao sighed, hugged it, and thought of his captain. Ah, he and the captain Cough, cough, just thinking back on it a little made Wei Xiao blush all the way to his ears again. Wei Xiao really couldnt sleep. He pushed Soybean aside and took out his cell phone to send a message to Lu Feng, Captain~ After a while where nobody replied to him, Wei Xiao became even happier. This was great, the captain had turned off his phone and gone to sleep. He could continue chattering on by himself. I heard that itll feel a bit painful, but I think that wasnt so bad. The Quiet who existed in the Gossip Emperors Weibo was too unreasonable, why did he have to cry and whine? The real Quiet wanted to tell them loudly, Its not that painful! It was just very tiring. Especially his hands; they were really sore. Wei Xiao continued to send messages to Lu Feng, I feel that it didnt hurt, it just felt a little He deliberately started a new line of text and continued to poke out words, Too wonderful! Lu Feng, who had just come out of the bathroom, saw his cell phone light up. He picked it up and took a lookCC The fire in his heart that hadnt been easy to suppress flared up again. Wei Xiao He typed out a whole paragraph, but reason made him delete it all. He changed it to two words, Good night. Wei Xiao was surprised, I thought youd already fallen asleep. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao was afraid of making him tired, Hurry and sleep, hurry and sleep, I wont disturb you anymore. After putting down his cell phone, Wei Xiao sat in the bed for a while. Then, he poked out his head Oh, right, I originally went upstairs to give the captain a massage. Hed spent so long memorizing Doctor Chens techniques, yet as a result Hey, in a sense, that could also be considered a type of massage! When Wei Xiao woke up the next day, he felt like he was no longer an ignorant person who knew nothing. 19 couldnt be considered old, but it also wasnt too young anymore. He was now a real man! Wei Xiaos waist was a little straighter than usual today. To be honest, Wei Xiao couldnt really be blamed for this. In the first 17 years of his life, he was fully focused on living a good life with his grandmother. Later on, hed gotten to know Lu Feng. Other than solo and Glory, his heart hadnt been interested in anything else. He understood things between men and women. In high school, one would hear a lot about it even if they didnt participate in the discussion. But between men Wei Xiaos only channel to understand these things was through the Gossip Emperors small articles on Weibo. Brother Cai was a good young man who understood sustainable development in a harmonious society. His small articles were all carefully selected and thoroughly edited. Old drivers had to open their eyes wide in order to understand what was between the lines, let alone Wei Xiao, this kind of newbie who didnt even have a drivers license. This was like looking at flowers in a fog, viewing the moon on the water. When it came to the specifics, it all depended on ones understanding. Obviously, Wei Xiaos insight was all focused on the game. He was more than a little lacking when it came to this aspect. Wei Xiao was in a good mood, and everything looked good to him. Brother Cai had something to ask of him. Seeing that he was downstairs, he greeted him, Come here, come here. Wei Xiao noticed that huge glass of watermelon juice, Offering hospitality for no reason; if its not adultery, then its theft. Comrade Old Bai, what do you want? Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Something good. Wei Xiao grew even more cautious, Dont fall in love with me, I have no interest in you. Bai Cai was so angry he couldnt even catch his breath, I wouldnt fall for an old beast like you even if I were to die! Wei Xiao just liked to tease him on a daily basis, Well, theres no need to die. Brother Cai was too lazy to continue on this topic with him and switched back to the main topic, Are you really giving up solo? He didnt believe it! As soon as Wei Xiao heard this, there was an uncomfortable feeling in his heart. The joy of growing up couldnt cover this inexplicable uneasiness. I gave it up! Why? Im focusing on 5v5. You dont have to quit solo for that! Wei Xiaos heart felt stuffy: What do you know! Under normal circumstances, it was true that it wasnt necessary to give up solo. Everyone knew that Lu Feng would sign up for FTWs solo competition, but this didnt mean that other players couldnt play solo. Glory was a team game, but it also required personal operations. And solo was undoubtedly the best way to improve. Giving up solo meant giving up good training opportunities. Wei Xiao was fidgety, Its enough to just solo with the captain. Bai Cai: Really? Wei Xiao stared at him, Who can compare with the captain?! Bai Cai: But the captain is your teammate, and those in the competition arena that you need to kill off are all your opponents. It had to be said that Brother Cai knew Wei Xiao very well. Every word poked straight into his heart. Wei Xiao didnt want to solo? He was about to die from wanting it so much! Ever since he announced that he was giving up solo on Weibo, that group of bastards have been constantly trying to excite him. It was unknown what kind of unequal contract Moonlit had signed with his team, but hed been live broadcasting almost every single day before the regular season began. He didnt do anything else during his broadcasts. He just soloed with others. This group of beasts refused to act human; they couldnt get Quiet, so they went to mess with Moonlit. Then, they would make sure the video replay reached Wei Xiaos eyes. @FTW.Quiet, Moon God and Asleeps passionate collision! @FTW.Quiet, Moon God and Euro Gods c-position match! @FTW.Quiet, click to see Moon God beat up his own captain. At first, it was just Xia Dan, Blue, and that crowd of doggy things who tagged him. Later, fans also found it and grew energetic, finding it very interesting to follow suit and tag him. As long as it was solo, there would definitely be @FTW.Quiet in the message. Wei Xiao was so angry that he had to uninstall Weibo! He was quitting solo for the sake of love, but the entire network was now trying to seduce him back. It wasnt easy being him! At this moment, Bai Cai was trying to stimulate him again, Why are you so stuck on this point? You can give up anything, but you chose to give up solo. Wei Xiao gritted his teeth, I said I would give it up, so Im giving it up! Bai Cai: Come on, theres a big event happening tomorrow. Wei Xiao blocked his ears, As long as its related to solo, it has nothing to do with me! Brother Cais eyes were filled with money, Really, its a really big event. Yesterday, Captain Mo told me that theyre planning a warm-up for the regular season. There was a small gap in the hands covering Wei Xiaos ears, Hm? Brother Cai: Moon God wants to set up a challenge arena in his live broadcast room, and Captain Mo will inject capital. Anyone can challenge and have a chance to win the final prize of 300,000 yuan! Wei Xiao: Brother Cai tried to seduce him, I know that you dont care about the 300,000, but this is a golden opportunity. Think about it, how seriously will the challengers be playing when theres money as a lure? Can it compare to how they play in private? Consider it seriously. If you dont participate, youll really have passed up on this opportunity that shows up only once. Itll definitely be the captain going to play in the singles competition. Why dont you take this opportunity to satisfy your cravings? Wei Xiao: F*ck! Bai Cai took out his cell phone. Hed originally wanted to go and pull out Moneys Weibo post. Who couldve known Damn, the captain Wei Xiao glanced over, What? Brother Cai raised up his cell phone so that he could look at it directly, The captain added to it! Hell add another 300,000 for whoever wins the challenge. Wei Xiao saw the post. Close had forwarded Moneys Weibo post with a message of his own: Adding 300,000. I wont participate. Bai Cai spoke excitedly, What are you waiting for, the captain is trying to encourage you with this! It was made clear that Close wouldnt participate. In the entire China competition zone, who else could compete with Wei Xiao when it came to solo? Such a large pile of money. It was clearly there as a gift for Wei Xiao to take, take, take! xiin: yes, it was a handjob and then WXs legs hurt because LF probably got off by humping between WXs thighs (juu says its called intercrural sex but thats not very sexy sounding) Chapter 100: Lu Feng: Here, it hurts a lot. Brother Cais eyes were filled with money. When he saw the huge 600,000 yuan number, he wished that he could pick up the gun himself and screw with Moonlit until he was calling out daddy! Fine, Brother Cai couldnt do it, Brother Cai didnt have a gun. However, his fellow brother did! His fellow brother was the One Lamp Grandmaster who had managed to hammer everyone in the Glory e-sports circle! Brother Cai had a beautiful thought. He wondered if Comrade Old Wei would be in a good mood and split half of it with him. If you dont play even with this, Brother Xiao, youll be Bai Cai tried to egg him on. He felt that his win was basically 90% guaranteed! Who couldve known that the Wei Xiao in front of him wasnt acting the same way hed imagined. He wasnt excited, wasnt inspired, didnt explode into action. Not only that, his attitude seemed to be a little chilly? Bai Cai stopped speaking and looked at Wei Xiao cautiously. The winter sun was very strong at noon. The wall of the bases front hall was covered in a stretch of French windows and doors. The sunlight shone in through the glass, warming it up like a greenhouse. It was a pity that the most gorgeous flower in this greenhouse at this time was cold and chilly, akin to deep layers of ice and snow. Wei Xiaos appearance was the clean and handsome type. He was 1.8 meters tall, but his body was thin. He wore his team uniform jacket casually draped over his shoulders, and his waist was narrow, his legs long. When he smiled, he seemed particularly attractive C a little flirty and affectionate, and a little naughty; when he didnt smile, his eyes curved down, and his side profile was filled with indifference. It was a little similar to Close. Bai Cais heart thudded, and he strove to liven up the atmosphere, Why arent you happy that the captain is indulging you? It was still okay before he said these words, but once he spoke, it was like hed ignited a firecracker. Wei Xiao didnt say a word as he turned and went back upstairs. Bai Cais head was covered in question marks, and he was completely clueless about what had just happened. Ning Zhehan, whod just come downstairs, met Wei Xiao as he was going up, Brother Xiao He was given a shock before he could finish his greeting. Wei Xiao answered very lightly, then continued upstairs. Ning Zhehan turned his body sideways, his eyes aiming at Bai CaiCC Brother Cai, whats wrong with Brother Xiao? Bai Cais expression was blankCC He didnt know either. Theyd been back at the base for so many days, but Wei Xiao had never been to Lu Fengs office. There was no special reason for it; Wei Xiao hadnt wanted to disturb Lu Feng when he was working. Other than when they met in the canyon, every time he saw Lu Feng, he always wanted to stick close to him. It was enough to stick to him when they ate and slept. He would be too much if he also harassed the captain when he was working. Wei Xiaos words might be arrogant and careless, but in fact, he had a good sense of propriety. Perhaps it was the uneasiness in his bonesCCa fear that even he didnt realize. Fear of being disliked. Fear of losing. Fear that this hard won love would become like a bubble in the sea, popping and disappearing without a trace. Wei Xiao stopped outside the door to the office, pursed his lips, then pressed the doorbell. A familiar low voice came out from inside the room, Come in. Wei Xiao frowned tightly and pushed open the heavy wooden door. Unlike what hed expected, Lu Fengs office was quite ordinary. FTWs base was well-known for its lavishness. From the outside all the way to the inside, the overall design of the villa was very stylish and comfortable. Even the contestants dormitories were elaborately built. According to this logic, Lu Fengs office should be the place with the most attention to detail. However, that wasnt actually the case. Other than the same French windows that were present on each floor, the office was filled with the light scent of books. A bookshelf that covered an entire wall was covered in sunlight. On the desk at the front of the room, there was an all-in-one printer, and all the documents were piled in a rack. A silver Montblanc pen was the only bright spot of color. There was a sofa set in front of the desk. It wasnt from any famous brand, but rather, an ordinary black sofa set. Even the coffee table was basic with just a touch of style in the design. The overall decorations wouldnt make people feel that the office was shabby, but it wasnt the same gorgeous style that the rest of the FTW base displayed. Lu Feng looked up and saw Wei Xiao in a daze by the door. Whats the matter? Lu Feng stood up and came to him. Wei Xiao closed the door behind him. He didnt step forward and just leaned against the door, holding the handle with the hand that was behind his back. His mood was obviously not right. Lu Feng was quite clear about the reasons, and his voice was low when he spoke, Angry? Half of the high wall that Wei Xiao had erected collapsed with this single word. Wei Xiao looked up at him, I said I wasnt going to solo! When Bai Cai saw that Lu Feng had added 300,000 to the challenge, he just thought that the captain was indulging him and wanted him to have a good time. But Wei Xiao only felt a wave of coldness surging up. Theyd clearly spoken about it. It had already been settled. The captain had even said Mm. Why Lu Feng reached behind him and loosened the hand he had wrapped around the door handle. Wei Xiao held on to his hand tightly, lifting his head to look at him, You still want me to participate in the singles competition! Lu Feng: . Did this question still require an answer? This silence already said everything. Wei Xiao frowned, his eyes cold and icy. This was a side that hed never shown in front of Lu Feng beforeCC It was the tough layer of camouflage that Wei Xiao erected when faced with disaster. Lu Feng calmed down his mood, Having you sign up for the singles competition wasnt something I decided on alone. It was the result after a joint discussion with the coaching team. Wei Xiao stared at him, As long as you decided on it, would the coaching team refuse?! Lu Feng looked at his slightly reddened eyes and felt like his heart had been stabbed, Little Xiao. Wei Xiao: He couldnt bear to hear Lu Feng call him that. Lu Feng was the only one in the entire world who would call him like that, with such a gentle voice. He knew that the captain was good to him, and he knew that the captain valued him. But He also wanted to be good to him, and he valued him, too! Wei Xiao bowed his head and said stubbornly, I wont sign up. He didnt want the captain to have to sacrifice himself in order to satisfy him. Lu Feng held his hand, Come here. Wei Xiao didnt say a word, letting Lu Feng lead him over to sit on the black sofa that couldnt actually be considered soft. Wei Xiao didnt look at him, his attitude like that of a child whod been cheated by his family. Lu Feng held the back of his neck, pulled him close, then kissed him. Wei Xiao resisted, Kissing me isnt going to work. He was angry! The kind that kissing wouldnt coax better! Lu Fengs lips curved briefly in a smile, Theres something that I cant tell others, but I want to tell you. Wei Xiao looked hard and unforgiving on the outside, but his heart had long turned as soft as a pool of water. Especially the kiss just now, it had collapsed all his defenses. In front of someone he loved, his hard facade was nothing but a paper tiger. However, Wei Xiao didnt want to back down. When it came to things related to Close, he would fight until the end. Lu Feng had never thought that there would come a day when he would take the initiative to speak of his troubles out loud. However, in fact, all the words that couldnt be said were simply because he hadnt met the right person. His shoulder injury was linked to a humiliating past. For Lu Feng to say it out loud meant that not only was he tearing down the broken armor on his body, he was also uncovering the scar that covered the blood and pus within. Im sorry. Lu Feng held his hand gently, lowering his gaze, Its that I have no way to compete in the singles competition. Wei Xiao was stunned. He didnt understand. Lu Feng lifted up his hand and pressed it forcefully against his own shoulder. Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide. Lu Feng frowned tightly and a thin layer of sweat oozed out from his forehead, Here, it hurts a lot. The last words were spoken very lightly, as light as snowflakes falling from the sky. CCCasual, inconspicuous, light, and floating softly in the air. However, the next moment felt like a heavy blizzard, bringing a bottomless coldness that couldnt be melted away. Wei Xiao was buried in this sudden blizzard. Lu Feng talked in detail about his own situation. His shoulder injury, the three rounds of competition that he couldnt balance, and how he had had to make a choice. Regret and relief. Loss and hope. Im very glad you came to FTW. Lu Feng expressed all of his thoughts openly to Wei Xiao, It was your arrival that gave me hope. A new FTW, a new season. In this years team competition, FTW would definitely be able to obtain the real championship! After three years and several changes, the new FTW would finally usher in their summer! Wei Xiao was in a daze. A long time later, his pale lips trembled as he asked Lu Feng, Youve been competing while injured all along? Lu Feng: . Wei Xiaos brain was buzzing. In the next second, tears began to fall silently. His eyes were red, his face was dazed, and other than the continuous sound of tears as they dripped down and fell, there was no other sound. Lu Feng was distressed. He hugged him, Dont cry. He hadnt been able to speak out for so long, precisely because he was afraid of seeing him cry. Wei Xiao put his chin on his shoulder, not moving at all as he repeated, Youve been competing while injured all along. Scenes flashed in his mind like a fast-forward movie, starting from the day hed met Lu Feng. All the details were magnified infinitely in Wei Xiaos brain. The self-disciplined captain. The captain that stuck to his exercise routine. The captain who rested on time every day Countless things that Wei Xiao had thought were just Lu Fengs personal preferences became magnified as he recalled them. If one didnt experience pain, they wouldnt be obsessed with exercise. If there was no real threat, there would be no need for that level of self-discipline. Anyone who loved the competition, anyone whod reached the peak; how would any of them not do their best in the canyon? Two years ago, Close had soloed with him for 48 hours straight. He loved Glory more than anyone else, indulged in it, and couldnt extricate himself from it. But now, hed reduced his training, never stayed up late, went running for exercise every morning, his life orderly and disciplined like that of an old man. The body was the capital for everything. Lu Feng had said this to him many times. At the time, Wei Xiao hadnt taken him seriously, but now, it was a sharp pain stabbing through his heart and lungs. During the winter training camp, Wei Xiao had been frightened by Li Herans injury. Now, the same fear swept in, completely enveloping him. The captain had a shoulder injury. Hed been competing while injured, hed been persevering through it. Occupational diseases were too fatal for e-sports players. How much willpower did it require to endure pain and withstand the numbness, ensuring stable play? If something went wrong, it would all collapse like an avalanche. It wouldnt be just the team that collapsed, the individual player would be impacted the most. After experiencing such setbacks, they would leave the scene alone. Li Heran, who was once the number one ADC in Glory, had been reduced to the point where nobody talked about him. Close, he also Bursts of cold rippled down his back. Wei Xiao felt as though he was falling into an abyss. Kim Sung-hyuns words poured into his heart. Intermittent, fragmented, and finally, the half-burnt out cigarette by the sea. The dim light that didnt shine through the dark night. The warmth it gave off at the fingertips wasnt enough to warm up the cold sea. Kim Sung-hyuns unwillingness and regret, all of it poured into Wei Xiaos heart. Wei Xiao looked straight ahead and asked Lu Feng in a voice that didnt sound like his own, You can only participate in the 5v5, right? Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiaos lips trembled, You want me to sign up for the singles competition, right? Lu Feng suppressed the reluctance in his heart, closed his eyes and said, You can also sign up for the doubles competition. Wei Xiaos voice was light and fluttering, With who? Lu Feng: Bai Cai. As soon as his voice fell, he felt a tear land on his neck. They were very cold tears, but it also scalded so much it made his back tighten. Wei Xiao didnt say anything else and just held him gently. His movements were very light, as though afraid of touching his injury. He didnt know how much time passed, and he didnt know how long they remained cuddled together like this. Wei Xiao finally released Lu Feng. Lu Feng looked at him anxiously, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao avoided his gaze, Give me some time. The words that were waiting at the edge of Lu Fengs lips were swallowed back, Okay. Wei Xiao got up and walked out of the office. He went downstairs expressionlessly, then locked himself in his bedroom. Soybean had originally wanted to pounce on him, but when it saw him like this, it immediately hit the brakes. It gave a gentle call, then lay down obediently at the edge of the bed. Wei Xiao hadnt taken off his clothes. He simply pulled back the quilt and got into bed. He curled up in the quilt, unable to stop his trembling. Last time he felt like this, it had been two years agoCC When he learned of his grandmas death, Wei Xiao just felt like the heavens and earth were churning. The person whod encouraged him to be strong and live on had passed away. The person whod supported his constant efforts had left. The love that Wei Xiao hadnt been able to express, the love that he hadnt been able to return, the love that he failed to give, all of it turned into grief that pressed down on him. It was too heavy, pressing down on his 17 year old self until he couldnt breathe. Now this sense of suffocation came again. Close was injured. Close was ill. The king of the singles competition had no alternative but to take off his crown, because of something so helpless. Belief. Faith. The light he chased. Wei Xiao was close to him, and he could see him. But, he also witnessed the bloodshed behind it. The bright light in front of others was broken and fragmented behind the scenes. A strange picture appeared in front of Wei XiaoCC On the dazzling championship stage, there was the incomparably powerful Close, but behind him was a darkness that was constantly swallowing him up. The brilliance of the light was equal to the depths of the darkness. The next day. It wasnt just Bai Cai; everyone in FTW could tell that something was wrong with Wei Xiao. The person who had the most to say normally was no longer talking, the person who liked to laugh the most was no longer laughing. Wei Xiao went to the training room in the morning and never left it until 10PM. Chen Feng finished that days game review, Everyone can do their own thing. He glanced at Wei Xiao, paused, then added, By the way, RRs arena platform. You guys can give it a try if youre interested. When the Wei Xiao whod been as silent as a man made of wood heard this, his eyelashes trembled. Even Bai Cai hadnt dared to speak to him all day long. Finally, when he saw that Wei Xiao seemed to have loosened up slightly, he asked tentatively, Go and give it a try? Ning Zhehan also tried to ease up the atmosphere, Ill give a try, too. After all, our captain is funding 300,000 of the prize money. When he heard the word captain, Wei Xiao spoke his first sentence of the day, Ill go. Bai Cai snuck a glance at him, and the joke that was hovering at the edge of his mouth simply got stuck before it came out. Wei Xiaos current appearance was too scary. There wasnt even a single word of nonsense as Wei Xiao logged into the game and applied to enter the game room that Moonlit had set up. On that side, Moonlit had just finished a game. He accepted the application. Solo? Mm. Moonlit was livestreaming. When the fans saw the ID Quiet, the atmosphere instantly heated up, Holy shit, the grandmaster is here! Grandmaster, can you do it? My Moon God just finished hammering people, and his hands are warmed up. How exciting, this segment should be recorded. After the game is over, I want to go back and savor it properly! I bet three cannons that Moon God will win. I bet six on Quiet! The match started. The audience became even more excited when they saw the heroes both sides had selected. Moon Gods immortal warlock ahhhhh, Ill love him for a lifetime! The shadow thief ahhhhhh, FTWs inherited shadow thief ahhhhh! Although I cant see Quiet on the screen, I always have a feeling that hes filled with killing intent today. When they entered the narrow canyon for the singles competition, the scrolling comments were confused for a moment. This About this This isnt killing intent, this is simply a demon! Less than one minute into the game. FTW.Quiet killed RR.Moonlit. The author has something to say: Dont be afraid, the second arcs name is Blazing Sun Its the blazing sun that lights up Close. Too much drama affects the reading experience. Believe me, I wont let you down. xiin: even the author said it will be okay! WX and LF will work through this~ but i wont judge you if you need tissues i went through a few while translating these chapters (shhh) Chapter 101: FTWs new generation jungler king! In a singles competition, the shortest time to a first kill was 40 seconds. This was a record set by Close. The lines of soldiers appeared after ten seconds. The first wave of soldiers arrived, and then hed killed his opponent at level one. This was even a brilliant set of operations for the global competition, and it shocked the entire Glory circle. Coincidentally, Close had also been using the shadow thief at the time, while the player on the opposing side had taken the immortal warlock. Just like Wei Xiao and Moonlit. In theory, it was possible for a shadow thief to kill the immortal warlock right at the start of the game. The immortal warlock was relatively weak before it unlocked its ultimate move, and its skills, movement speed, health bar, and defense all couldnt compete with that of the shadow thief. However, professional players all had their own ideas regarding their commonly played heroes. In Chinas Glory circle, Moonlits name was almost synonymous with that of the immortal warlock. He knew all the advantages and disadvantages of this talent spec better than anyone else. His delicate positioning and careful micro operations meant that he wouldnt be killed in the early stages of the game. However, todays Quiet wasnt human! As soon as he entered, the shadow thiefs red aura of oppression filled up the whole canyon. When the soldier lines entered, the shadow thief took out its sword. Moonlit sensed something, but unfortunately, all of his actions had been seen through! Handing over his flash skill less than one minute into the start of the game would be too much, surely. However, it was this one second of hesitation that meant that he missed the chance to escape and had his life swept away by the shadow thief. Someone reacted, F*ck, is this really Quiet? Are you sure its not Close playing for him?! Its an offline entertainment match, so do they need to bring out Close for this? Who knows, take a look at the amazing popularity levels of Moonlits broadcast room. Maybe its been hyped up by both teams. If the traffic and popularity were high, they would have a larger audience. All sorts of people with bad intentions also started to appear. However, the scrolling comments couldnt affect the game, and the killing inside the game had already become white hot. Wei Xiao obtained the first kill within a minute, undoubtedly stimulating Moonlit. The live broadcasting room showed Moonlits perspective. People couldnt see what the shadow thief was doing and could only follow the immortal warlocks perspective. This wasnt the same as watching the game from the gods perspective. They lost the advantage of being able to see the whole situation, and the sense of immersion was very strong. It was so strong that it was like they were in the canyon, as though they were the immortal warlock themselves, as though they were also the ones being threatened by the shadow thiefs crimson blade. Getting killed within one minute led to a more cautious Moonlit after his resurrection. He knew Wei Xiao very well. Countless solos with him had made him extremely aware of how fierce this person was. But todays Wei Xiao was very different. Not only was he fierce, he was also crazy. Moonlit held tight to his flash and was very wary of the shadow thief, vowing to remain alive until he reached level six. Once he reached level six, the immortal warlocks ultimate move would allow him to turn the tables perfectly. However, Wei Xiao understood this truth even better than he did. He continued to suppress the immortal warlock, forcing him to choose. Either offer up your head to be killed, or lose your soldiers. If he was killed, he would lose a large amount of farm. However, if he lost his soldiers, it would also affect his growth. Glory was a game of watching farm. Anyone who didnt think to save up and strive to earn farm would just be strung up for slaughter in the later stages of the game. Even someone whose individual operations level was superior, like Close, would find it impossible to kill their opponent with 8000 gold if they only had 3000 gold themselves. Without money and levels, it didnt matter how your operational skills were. Even a clever woman wouldnt be able to cook rice without rice grains. Moonlit had been forced into this position by the ferocious shadow thief. Wei Xiao wasnt playing for entertainment at all. From the start, hed had a very focused attitude, and his body exuded the aura of fighting until the death. Moonlit liked this level of seriousness, but He was being completely suppressed. There was no way to fight back, and it was too oppressive! It wasnt that his operations werent good enough, it wasnt that his positioning was flawed, it was that he couldnt find any opportunities at all. Moonlit had only hesitated for a second at the start of the game, but Wei Xiao, whod grabbed the absolute superiority in the game didnt even give him a single chance to breathe. After finally reaching level six, the audience who was watching from Moonlits perspective finally caught their breath. Ultimate! Moon God, quickly use your ultimate move! The shadow thief is done for! Its useless even if he has light arcs, our immortal warlocks ultimate move can give him immunity to 80% of all damage! Yeah, even if eight light arcs hit Moon God in the face, as long as Moon God can link up his ultimate move, the light arc is nothing but a younger brother. What if he manages nine What are you thinking? Close is the only one in the whole world who can do it. A rare talent who only shows up once in a hundred years, okay? As everyone knows, nine light arcs is something that even the game developers didnt expect would happen. Only Close is able to do it. Even if Quiet is learning from Close, he cant Holy sh*t! While the audience was discussing enthusiastically, analyzing the situation with relish, and speculating with interestCC CCthey could be so relaxed, because Moonlit had finally started to fight back. The immortal warlock that had its ultimate move was completely different. It had a huge advantage against the shadow thiefs light arcs. The immortal warlocks ultimate move of flying on the clouds was very difficult to operate, but it was very powerful once it was linked up. Firstly, the DPS output was considerable, and secondly, it made the immortal warlock immune to 80% of damage it received when it was flying on the clouds. What did that mean? If the eight light arcs dealt 10,000 damage, then it would only cause 2,000 damage even if it landed on the immortal warlock who was in the midst of its ultimate move. Without calculating an immortal warlocks defense value, it already had 3,000 points of health. Normally, eight light arcs could kill three immortal warlocks, but it wasnt enough to kill a single immortal warlock who was flying on the clouds. The immortal warlocks ultimate move didnt deal as much damage as eight light arcs, but it was enough to easily cut down the shadow thief who had no damage immunity. So, the shadow thief had no way to compete with the immortal warlock in terms of ultimate moves. Of course, there were countless possibilities for error in this. Not everyone could easily start flying on the clouds, and not everyone could link up light arcs. In a fight between the strong, the details were more important. Once both of them were fully absorbed in the fight and focused on the details, the rest all depended on real strength. If the shadow thief could brush out nine light arcs, then it would bring the damage from 10,000 to 20,000. Even if the immortal warlock had 80% damage immunity, it would still die. Everyone had already decided that nine light arcs was something that was exclusive to Close. Everyone was absolutely certain that Quiet wouldnt be able to link up nine light arcs. But it was often the case that everyones point of view didnt represent the truth. When the light arcs that covered most of the canyon blew up, everyone was stunned. Moonlit stared at the screen that had turned gray because of his death, and his eyes blazed with fervor. The immortal warlock toppled over. The shadow thiefs red cloak drifted down quietly, the scene incredibly gorgeous, and leaving only the figure hidden in the dark. The blue crystal exploded. Moonlit lost the game. The entire live broadcast studio was silent. The audience, whod been watching the game from Moonlits first person perspective, had also been greatly affected. Not everyone had had the opportunity to experience nine light arcs in the canyon. Not to mention that Close rarely used the shadow thief, even in official competitions. The experience from gods perspective was completely different from experiencing it from the characters perspective. They could only scream when experiencing the former, while the latter one was thrilling and shocking. They could feel the pressure Moonlit felt, experience the powerlessness that Moonlit felt, and also get a feel for the gap between the two. They even felt a huge sense of frustration. In the end, they werent Moonlit. When faced with a sense of oppression, ordinary people would retreat, while top professional players would become inspired. Their blood would boil, their fingers tremble, and their eyes grow heated. They wanted to try and win again! Not admitting defeat was a basic quality required to become a top player. The scrolling comments were movingCC Its proven, this must be Close. Is it worth them going so far? Its just an entertainment game. Why ask the captain to fight for him? Hah, FTWs really amazing, they added 300,000 yuan, then still had Close go up to play? No way, Close said that he wouldnt participate. Do you believe that Quiet can do nine light arcs? No. I dont believe it +1. I dont believe it + ID number. There was no need to talk about how the audience didnt believe it; FTWs entire training room was silent. From the start of the competition, Bai Cai, Ning Zhehan, and Yue Wenle had all stopped queueing for games to come and watch. The live broadcast room gave Moonlits perspective, while they watched Wei Xiaos perspective. If Moonlits perspective could be described as oppressed, targeted, and smeared into the ground and rubbed around Then Wei Xiaos perspective was the opposite. Suppression, coercion, strong and fierce sneak attacks. It turned out that experiencing the first person perspective as Close could make peoples scalps go numb like this! Indeed Even the FTW teammates whod stared at Wei Xiao with wide eyes, watching as he executed this set of operations, felt that this wasnt Quiet, but Close. The person sitting here was Wei Xiao, but it was Close whod entered the canyon. Bai Cais goosebumps jumped straight out as he watched it. Hed known for a long time that Wei Xiao understood Close, known early on that he was very good at imitating Close, and that Wei Xiao was simply like another Close when he was at his most obsessive moments. However, this was the first time hed seen Quiet throw himself away and become Close. Brother Cai was very worthy of a person who lived in the gossip circles. He understood too much about the things that the fans could get up to. As soon as Wei Xiao began to brush out the second half of his light arcs, hed already started a video recording and recorded all his operations. It would be best if nobody questioned it. If people questioned it, then he would shove this video in their faces! Let them have a good lookCC It wasnt Close. It was Quiet! The challenge arena had been set up for a long time, and everyone could only lose once. Moonlit had defeated countless people, but he was finally taken down by Wei Xiao. The host asked if there were any other challengers? There was complete silence at the scene. Challenge what? Were they going to challenge and see how they could get beaten?! After winning the challenge arena and getting 600,000 yuan, the corners of Wei Xiaos lips didnt even curve up. He left the challenge room and went to continue ranking on the international servers. The internet had already exploded, and various conspiracy theories emerged endlessly. Interesting. If wed known early on that Close was participating, who would come and accompany him to play? He said he was adding 300,00 but in fact, he wanted to take it all. Tsk, tsk, FTWs morals are getting lower and lower. The other sides Captain Mo didnt say that Close wasnt allowed to compete, so did they have to go so far as to have him pay someone elses account? Enough already, Moneys schemes run deep too, using 300,000 to push up a live broadcast rooms popularity. This years RR endorsement fees are probably high enough to reach the heavens. Really worthy of being a rich second generation, hes a business genius. Bai Cai couldnt bear to see Wei Xiao getting slandered like this, so he sent the video off to Xiang Liu. Xiang Liu was in the midst of extracting the training room monitoring feed. The clarity from the monitoring recording was alright, but it was far less powerful than the close shot that Bai Cai had provided. Great job! Xiang Liu put up both videos on the official website and instantly cleaned up all the suspicious netizens. There had been no substitution. There was only FTWs new generation jungler kingCCQuiet! Xiang Liu had also sent Bai Cais video to Lu Feng. Lu Feng sat in front of his computer, endlessly replaying the one minute video. The video was shot from the back, and the angle had been selected well. Not only could the viewers see the computer screen clearly, they could also see Wei Xiaos focused expression as he stared at the screen. The youths black hair was slightly messy, his pale face was illuminated by the light arcs on the screen, and his pair of black eyes seemed coated with a layer of frost that separated the canyons gorgeous splendor from his inner coldness. Not long ago, when Wei Xiao was pestering him to solo, hed once asked him, Captain, when will I be able to use nine light arcs? Lu Feng couldnt remember what hed said. He only remembered Wei Xiao sitting on his lap, his eyes curved as he said, Ill definitely be able to do it, because in the whole world, theres only me and you who are made for each other. Lu Feng leaned back in his chair. He lifted his hand and loosened his collar in response to the surging feeling of suffocation that swept up. He was more eager than anyone else to see Quiets nine light arcs. But it wasnt supposed to be like this. The Quiet he wanted to see was brilliant, unbridled, acting recklessly without the slightest haze. Wei Xiao queued on his own in the international servers until 6AM. There was a ding in his private messages. It was a special icon from the competition zones strongest player. Wei Xiao clicked it open and saw the ID Marshall. It was six oclock in the afternoon, North American time. Yuan Ze: Nine light arcs, not bad, little friend. Wei Xiao wasnt in the mood to talk to anyone. Yuan Ze sent over another message, Youre fighting so hard, is it because you want to kick aside your captain and sign yourself up to participate in the singles competition? These words stabbed into Wei Xiaos chest like a knife and stirred up the unwillingness hed felt for a whole day and night. Wei Xiao: Get lost. Yuan Ze was the kind of old beast who could get lost, and then roll right back again, Be good, let Close have the opportunity to participate in the singles competition this year, and big brother will accompany you to play next year. The author has something to say: Old Dog Yuan is here to break the situation [ Who wouldve dared to think that the old dog would still have some use? ] xiin: you will be smiling through your tears soon~ also, happy new year! Chapter 102: Wei Xiao kissed him on the shoulder,Believe in me.” Wei Xiao would never tell anyone about Lu Fengs shoulder. He understood the gravity of the matter and knew how serious it was. The more he knew, the more he understood, and the more clearly he could see the burden that was on Closes shoulders. The responsibility of a top player, the pressure of a club manager, the unwillingness of a captain whod failed to get any achievements in the global competition for three years There was too much there, it was too heavy. Even someone as strong as Lu Feng would still be hurt by this. When Wei Xiao thought of this, his eyes grew red. Hed held back his tears all day, and he could no longer hold back his tears now, when nobody else was there. He felt heartache for the captain and felt sorry for himself. The sense of powerlessness hit him in the face, covering Wei Xiaos eyes like a thick fog. What to do? After playing in this years competition, would the captain be able to continue? After winning the championship, would the captain have to retire? He was only 21 years old, so young. To just Wei Xiao thought of himself from two years ago, and an even stronger wave of negative emotions swept over his entire person. If hed joined the team earlier, the captain wouldnt have ended up like this. If he hadnt run away, he and the captain couldve taken on this responsibility together. If But there was no if. Infinite regret couldnt be traded in to reverse time. Whats more, even if they went back to two years ago, would Wei Xiao be able to get rid of the haze left by his grandmothers death? Would he have been able to open his mind up to the game? Would he have been able to play his part? Nothing was certain. Wei Xiaos chest felt blocked, and he just felt that fate was constantly joking with him. Why did he have that kind of parents? Why did fate have to take away his grandmother? Why couldnt they even let off the captain whod been so good to him? Wei Xiao had lived for so many years, and he tried his best to be worthy of everyone, striving to do everything well. Why did he always have to encounter such unforgiving disasters? Captain Wei Xiao called out softly, his heart feeling like it was being stabbed by countless knives. The sweetest form of address, the warmest low murmur, the name that had given him infinite power Now, it had all turned to fear. Fear of losing. Fear of being alone. Fear of the happiness that hadnt been easy to obtain slipping right through his fingers. Wei Xiao trembled slightly, hugging his knees and curling up in the e-sports chair. He would become Close for the captains sake. He would do the things that Close could do. But He missed Close, he missed him so much. Tears blurred his line of sight, and Wei Xiao couldnt see what Yuan Ze had typed out on the screen clearly. Until his phone rang The strange number stunned him for a moment. Wei Xiao wiped away his tears, then picked it up politely, Hello. There was a pause on the other side, followed by the sound of a man whose voice had traces of careless laziness, Crying? Wei Xiao: From the other side of the phone Yuan Ze seemed to know what he wanted to do, If you hang up the phone, it means that you really are crying. Wei Xiao blanked out his voice, How did Captain Yuan get my phone number? Yuan Zes ears were very sharp. While he might be very dog-like when he normally teased this little child, when he really sensed that his mood might not be right, he was also extremely perceptive, I got it from Old G. During the winter training camp, Wei Xiao and Gary had gotten more and more familiar with each other, especially after playing several training matches together. So, theyd ended up exchanging contact information. At the time, Wei Xiao had told Old G, Dont give my phone number to your captain. Gary: Mmkay! Old Dog Yuan really wasnt a human being. Hed even taught a big grown man who was 1.86 meters tall to use mmkay C didnt his conscience hurt?! Now, it seemed that one would really be influenced by the company they kept; Old G had said mmkay, but hed also been equally quick to sell him out. Wei Xiao breathed lightly, then said, Is there something you need, Captain Yuan? If not, Im going to sleep. Yuan Ze tsked, I said a whole pile of things to you in our private messages, didnt you read them? Only then did Wei Xiao look at his computer screen. Sure enough, when he opened up the private chat channel, it was packed densely with words from Yuan ZeCC Hold on, dont get seduced by your captain. He actually wants to play in the singles competition more than anyone else. I tricked Old Xie, and hell definitely sign up this year. If Close doesnt come, then us big brothers will be one short. Be good, little friend, let your captain have the opportunity this time. It was alright when Wei Xiao didnt read it, but after he saw it, the sourness in his heart couldnt be suppressed anymore. He wanted to play more than anyone else. Xie He would sign up. Short one person. Wei Xiao closed his eyes briefly, I know. The psychology books that Yuan Ze had read werent read for nothing. Although it wasnt useful for dealing with Close, it could still be used to fool little children at this time. What, did you have a fight with your captain? Wei Xiao: Yuan Ze laughed, If you can fight with him, it means that he attaches importance to you. Wei Xiao couldnt pick up the thread of the conversation, but he also didnt hang up the phone. He wanted to hear more about the captain, and he was eager to learn more about the captain. And Yuan Ze was undoubtedly a good candidate for this information. Yuan Zes voice was careless, and his choice of words werent serious, but he was actually speaking the human language for once. You, hey, dont get fooled by your captain, dont believe everything he says. No matter how strong Close is, hes not absolutely perfect. Since you want to stay by his side, you should learn how to fill in the gaps. That Crazy Guy and Old Soup cant do it. Those two used to idolize Close blindly. No matter which club it is, its not a good thing to have one person deciding everything. Everyones human, and we all make mistakes. Wei Xiao was stunned and dazed when he read all this. The dense haze that was gathered in his chest started to show signs of loosening up. He couldnt tell which sentence from Yuan Ze had touched him, but hed really helped pry out the huge stone weighing down on his heart. The captain was human, too. The captain could make mistakes, too. The captains decisions werent always right. Wei Xiao felt a shock in his heart, and something seemed to explode in his brain. He couldnt quite catch it, but he could see the light. It was a ray of hot sunshine that broke through the dark clouds. Yuan Zes words became less and less serious, If you guys really cant get along, theres no need to force it. How about leaving Close and running into my embrace? Wei Xiao came back to his senses. Yuan Ze was still yakking on, Look at how he made you cry. Come to big brother, I promise to make you smile every day. Wei Xiao opened his mouth, Captain Yuan. Yuan Ze could tell that his tone had evened out, Hm? Wei Xiao: Let me tell you something. Yuan Zes eyes brightened, Yeah? Wei Xiao: Dont love me, its useless unless youre Close. Yuan Ze: F*ck! After hanging up the phone, Wei Xiao felt a little grateful to Yuan Ze in his heart. But to say thank you? Sorry, but that old beast didnt deserve it! Yeah, he only deserved to be beaten by the captain until his head was bleeding in the competition arena! Wei Xiao wiped his tears and jumped down from the e-sports chair. To hell was being dazed. Crying could also go to hell! How would that solve anything! God loved to play around with him, right? Then, he would tell God that he was no longer the three year old sitting at the door waiting for his parents. He was no longer the one who had been afraid and in despair when his grandmother died! He was the Quiet who had a promising future, FTWs miracle soldier, and the man who was a match made in heaven with Close! This time, he wasnt going to wait, he wasnt going to leave any regrets, and he wasnt going to avoid it. This time, he was going to control his own destiny! Wei Xiao refused to accept it! He wanted to know more, he wanted to understand more, and he wanted to find solutions. The captain didnt want to give up the game, the captain wanted to take part in the solo competition, and the captain also wanted to fight against his true opponents. Since that was the case, he would help him find a way! Wei Xiao looked at the time. It was half past six in the morning. Too early. Doctor Chen definitely hadnt started work yet. Wait a bit hed just wait a bit longer. These two hours didnt make any difference. It was impossible for Wei Xiao to sleep. He sat in the training room, and every second felt like a year. Wei Xiao logged into the game and continued to solo queue and rank up in points. Under this extremely urgent mood, his game play level was also a little abnormal and far less ruthless than hed been over the previous day and night. When it was almost eight oclock, he suddenly got up. He clearly hadnt heard anything, nor did he see anything, but he seemed to have sensed something. Wei Xiao tossed aside the mouse and went to the window. The training room faced south, and it just so happened to overlook the bases canyon garden. Wei Xiao saw Soybeans black and white figure, and he also saw the captain dressed in his black running clothes. He was too far away and could only see a vague figure of the captains back. The sun came up very late in winter mornings. The thin sunlight that seemed unable to press back the cold winter landed lightly on Lu Fengs shoulder. Gentle, but cruel. Wei Xiaos heart clenched and he closed the curtains. It was definitely possible. There had to be a way. The captains body was so strong, his work and rest schedule was so regular, and he adhered to exercise so strenuously. How could he lose to this damned injury! Waiting seemed to take forever. Over these two hours, Wei Xiao had basically checked the time every time he died, checked the time after every game, and finally, he couldnt bear it anymore and simply closed the game to stare at the clock. The clock pointer finally landed on 29, and Wei Xiao really couldnt wait that last minute. He picked up the phone and dialed through to Doctor Chen. Wei Xiao didnt dare to say it directly, but he asked vaguely about cures for occupational diseases. Doctor Chen understood what he was asking as soon as she heard it. She knew about Lu Fengs shoulder injury. As FTWs imperial physiotherapist, she was also Lu Fengs physiotherapist. Did your captain tell you? Wei Xiao paused when he heard these words. Doctor Chen liked Wei Xiao a lot. A lively and lovely young man like him easily stimulated her maternal instincts. Wei Xiao didnt try to dodge it and asked her bluntly, Doctor Chen, is it possible to cure the captains shoulder? His heart jumped up to his throat when he said these words. Hed never been so nervous in his life. He hadnt been this nervous even when his college entrance examination results had been announced. A long time later. Or maybe it was just half a second. But this was already so long that Wei Xiao couldnt tell the time clearly. Doctor Chens gentle voice rang out in his ear, Lu Fengs shoulder situation is very special. Its not a simple strain, but rather, it was in short, this situation can be cured, but it requires systematic rehabilitation and treatment. Optimistically speaking, it can be completely cured in two or three months. Wei Xiao was stunned. He could hear every word and understood every word, but he didnt dare to believe it. He was afraid that he was just dreaming! Wei Xiao found his own voice again and asked anxiously, Really? Doctor Chen, dont lie to me, the captains shoulder can really be cured, right?! He couldnt control his voice, and his pitch grew higher as he spoke. Doctor Chen could feel his excitement and just felt that this child was really warm. It was no wonder that Lu Feng valued him so much, Im not sure about the specifics. Ill have to do a detailed examination before making a plan Wei Xiao bit down on his lower lip, Thank you. He repeated these words from the bottom of his heart, Thank you! After hanging up the phone, Wei Xiao couldnt even wait another second. He dialed Lu Fengs cell phone, Captain There was a trace of crying that he couldnt keep from his voice. Lu Feng had just come out of the bathroom. His eyebrows furrowed, Whats the matter? Wei Xiao: Where are you? Lu Feng hadnt yet opened his mouth when Wei Xiao asked again, In your room? Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao didnt even hang up the phone. He was too impatient to wait for the elevator, and directly climbed up from the second floor to the fifth floor. He was out of breath by the time he opened up the door to Lu Fengs room. Lu Feng had gotten dressed. He came over to support him, Whats the matter? Wei Xiaos forehead was covered in sweat. The hand holding Lu Fengs arm trembled slightly, and his speech was interrupted with intermittent gasping, Doctor Chen she. Lu Feng understood. Wei Xiao looked up. His pair of eyes were brighter than the sun outside, She told me that your shoulder can be cured! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao stared straight at him, Itll only take two to three months. You can recover completely in two to three months! Lu Feng raised his hand and gently brushed aside the sweaty hair over his forehead, But for these two to three months, I would have to stay at the hospital. Wei Xiao froze. Lu Feng continued, I wont be able to play a single game in these two to three months. This was a difficult problem for Lu Feng Recovering from his shoulder injury would only take two to three months. But he didnt have that long. Lu Feng had known about this half a year ago, but he couldnt leave. He was FTWs captain, the core of the team, and the head of the entire club. If he left for two months, there would be no FTW by the time he came back. His shoulder would be healed, but he would have nothing. Lu Feng spoke gently to Wei Xiao, So, you dont need to worry. My shoulder injury really isnt that serious. He continued, Its just giving up the singles competition. Ive already won three titles. Its enough. Wei Xiao stared at him without blinking, One regular season. Lu Feng stilled. Wei Xiao clenched his fists, Its only one regular season, and youll be able to recover completely! The registration time for the singles and doubles competition is in the playoffs. Glorys competition system went like this. The competitions in each competition zone were divided into the regular season, the playoffs, and the divisional finals. The regular season only had 5v5 games. The singles and doubles competitions didnt require a cycle for gaining points. It was a BO1 elimination game right off the bat, so the lead up time was very short and the top eight could be determined in just a few days. So, the real registration time for the singles and doubles competition took place after the regular season! Wei Xiao looked at him and repeated in a voice that was almost pleading, Captain, its only one regular season! If he missed out on one regular season, the recovered Close could take part in the singles, the doubles, and 5v5! In the 2021 global finals, Close could reunite with his old teammates, fight to the bitter end, and leave no regrets behind! Lu Fengs heart beat very fast. With Wei Xiao looking at him like this, he was almost about to agree. But What if FTW fails in the regular season? Lu Fengs voice was hoarse. With Close not there, what if FTW toppled in the regular season? This years China competition zone couldnt be underestimated. Regardless of whether it was RR, TPT, or 3U, they were all extremely fierce. The number of teams who could make it to the global competition were limited. The regular season points were crucial, and if FTW lost, they might lose the chance to compete globally. How could Close give up the long-awaited team competition for the sake of the singles competition? It was impossible. FTW needed the team competition championship too much. Wei Xiao had already calmed down. He knew all of the captains concerns. The captains shoulder could be healed, but he had no time. At least, during this season, he didnt have time. The domestic regular season lasted for nearly three months. If Close left the team to treat his shoulder, then came back, it really didnt appear to affect anything. But the premise was that FTW had to obtain good results during the regular season first! Not just top four in their group, but number one in their group! Only when they were first in their group could they enter the winners bracket in the playoffs. Only the winners would have enough points. The division champion would definitely be selected for the global competition, and the rest of the quota would be allocated based on the point rankings during the entire season. The regular season, the playoffs, the finals It was all linked up. If FTW failed in the regular season, the consequences would be unimaginable. Lu Feng couldnt take this risk. He didnt want to win another single person championship. Wei Xiao bowed his head, his voice calmer than ever. I want to watch you play the singles competition, I want to play the doubles with you, and I want to accompany you to win a third championship! Lu Fengs scalp was turning numb with his words. He lowered his voice, Wei Xiao Wei Xiao suddenly raised up his head and looked straight into his eyes. Dont you want to? Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, and Xie He will all sign up for the singles competition. Dont you want to fight against them?! Dont you want to play in the doubles? Dont you want to tell the whole world that Quiet can cooperate with you?! Dont you want FTW to win a triple championship? Dont you want us to make history and become legends?! Lu Feng couldnt say a word. Wei Xiao leaned into him, closed his eyes, and kissed him on the shoulder, Believe in me. For this regular season, Ill support FTW. xiin: Old Dog Yuan is useful for once therell be daily releases for Glory from today onwards! happy new year, everyone! hope 2021 is much better for everyone than 2020 was~ Chapter 103: I wont leave you. The early morning sun lit up the room. Lu Feng lowered his gaze and looked down at Wei Xiaos trembling eyelashes that seemed coated with light. His kiss was very light, and it was over a layer of clothing, but the heat seemed to penetrate through everything, imprinting on Lu Fengs heart. Lu Feng pressed Wei Xiao into his arms and kissed him on the forehead, I believe you. Wei Xiao looked up at him, his eyes twinkling with joy, So But. Lu Fengs words went back to the original subject, his voice hoarse, Little Xiao, this year is really important for FTW. The joy in Wei Xiaos eyes faded, but they were still shockingly bright, If its very important, then its even more important for you to get it healed! Lu Feng held his hand and led him over to sit down, speaking to him slowly, I believe in you, and I believe in the current FTW, but I cant leave. Wei Xiao was anxious, Why! Lu Feng didnt look at him, Only North America has this rehabilitation physiotherapy. Wei Xiao froze. Lu Feng felt distressed for him, but there were some words that had to be said. Wei Xiao had a relatively practical temperament. Some things had to be explained to him clearly. Lu Feng also didnt want to hide these things from him. In fact, my shoulder doesnt affect normal life. I can ignore it completely. The treatment in North America is still at the clinical testing stage. Its hard to say if it will be successful or not. I cant rest assured about leaving for two or three months. If the treatment could be done domestically, even if it required hospitalization, Lu Feng wouldnt be so hesitant. But going abroad was too risky. This meant that he wasnt just leaving the team. He was leaving the entire club behind. Lu Feng couldnt leave. These were things that Wei Xiao hadnt expected. He just thought that Lu Feng would be temporarily unable to play in the competitions, and just needed to rest and recuperate properly. Unexpectedly Lu Feng stroked his delicate cheeks, Be good, during this season, well Wei Xiao didnt make a sound. He dropped his gaze, and his shoulders trembled. Lu Feng was filled with heartache as he kissed his eyes, Dont cry, Little Xiao, dont cry because of me. He just wanted to give him happiness, wanted to see him happy. He didnt want to be his source of pain. Wei Xiao was silent for half a beat, and his voice trembled when he spoke, Im scared. Lu Feng was stunned. Wei Xiao looked up at him, then poured out all his worries, fears, and insecurity, What if it what if it gets more and more serious? After this season, if-if it cant be cured, then what? What-what if you cant even play 5v5 in the future, then what! Lu Fengs heart shook. Countless emotions surged up into his throat, blocking him from saying anything. Wei Xiaos thin lips trembled, and he fell into the quagmire of fear, You keep saying that its not serious, but theres still a whole year to go. During this year, we have to keep playing training matches, keep participating in competitions, and run around everywhere How many players get so tired out that they develop occupational diseases? Youre already injured, and if you let it remain for another year, can it even be cured?! This was what Wei Xiao was most afraid of. This was what Wei Xiao was most unable to accept. This was what made Wei Xiao feel most uneasy. Captain He had tears in his eyes as he looked at Lu Feng hazily, Could it be that you only want to play for this one year? Lu Fengs face turned white, and even his lips grew pale and colorless. Wei Xiao leaned his forehead against his healthy right shoulder and whispered, Ive just come back to the team, and youre going to leave me behind. This was what weighed most on Wei Xiaos mind. He was eager for Lu Feng to play in the singles, and he was looking forward to playing the doubles competition with him, and he wanted to win three championships. But what he longed for most was Lu Feng. He was afraid, afraid that Lu Fengs shoulder injury would become more serious. He was scared, scared that the two of them could only play together for this one year. He was uneasy, uneasy about missing out on everything before it had all begun. Close. He was only 21 years old. Why should he have to end his career so early! Why should such an excellent person have to leave his most beloved arena! Why should the Close whod worked hard for so long, kept guard for so long, and paid out so much, have to become a bystander in the game! A long time later, Lu Feng finally raised his hand and gently stroked Wei Xiaos back. He kissed the salty tears on his face and spoke in a hoarse voice, Im sorry. Wei Xiao closed his eyes and didnt say a word. Lu Fengs kisses slid down little by little, going from his eyes, to his cheeks, and finally stopping at his lips. Wei Xiao opened his eyes and bit his lips. Lu Feng was stunned. Wei Xiao half knelt up on the sofa and pressed him down against the back of the seat. He kissed Lu Feng, kissed him forcefully, his actions messy, unbridled, and unusually rude. He seemed to be venting his emotions and swearing sovereignty. Lu Feng let him kiss as he liked, and even though the taste of blood spread out in his mouth, he let him continue to bite at him like a small animal Wei Xiao kissed him while crying. He made no sound, and there was only unspeakable pain. Captain, He finally stopped, pressing his forehead against Lu Fengs, Please These two words were as quiet as dust, but they hit Lu Fengs heart like a heavy hammer. Wei Xiao seemed to be using all the strength in his body to say, Please dont leave me behind. Lu Feng held his waist and picked him up. Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide, and by the time he came back to his senses, hed already been set down on the soft bed. Lu Feng held the hem of his clothing and took off his shirt. Wei Xiao was dazed for a moment and couldnt quite regain his wits, Ca-captain Hed seen Lu Fengs figure before. He looked thin when wearing clothing, but there was substance to his figure when he was stripped down. From this perspective, his shoulders, chest, and abdomen left a great visual impact. Lu Feng leaned over and kissed him on the lips. Wei Xiao instinctively wrapped his arms around his neck. A heated kiss was followed by more intense kisses. Lu Feng didnt say anything. He used countless kisses to tell Wei Xiao how much he cherished him, how much he loved him. Wei Xiao was flustered, Dont, there But he couldnt stop it. He could just feel a warmth that made his scalp go numb. Wei Xiao couldnt take it, and it didnt take long before he lost control. He covered his eyes with his forearm, Captain Lu Feng coaxed him, Its alright. Wei Xiaos brain was blank. Was it over? No, Lu Feng was still kissing him. Wei Xiao couldnt refuse, but he also couldnt bear it. He didnt know how many times it was, but he was already sobbing incoherently. Lu Feng finally pressed in close to his ear and said, I wont leave you. Wei Xiao opened his eyes, trembling violently. Lu Feng gave him both verbal and physical stimulation, I will be with you until the very end. The last word fell, and Wei Xiaos body and mind both felt an indescribable happiness. Wei Xiao fell asleep. Fatigue and satisfaction piled on top of each other and doubled up, and he fell into a deep sleep. Lu Feng kissed him on the brow, got dressed, and went downstairs. Half a year ago, Doctor Chen had told him that there was a new physiotherapy technology in North America that was specifically aimed at chronic injuries caused by external forces. At the time, FTW had just won the domestic competition and entered the global competition. Lu Feng had said that it was impossible to treat anything at the time. Later on, FTW had done a round trip at the globals, but Lu Feng still had to stick around waiting for the singles competition finals. The end of the year arrived in a flash. The off-season only lasted for a little over a month. Could Lu Feng get treatment then? The answer was still no. In recent years, FTW had always been in turmoil. How could Lu Feng leave for two months? Not to mention, he would have to answer to the fans for going away for such a long time. What could he say? Tell them that he was going in for treatment? In that case, the whole FTW would be broken up. FTW couldnt bear such a withdrawal of capital and definitely couldnt bear it if the partners dissolved their contracts. Lu Feng could only hold on. He held on until Ning Zhehan joined the team, until Wei Xiao came back. The winter training had undoubtedly made FTW famous within China, and Wei Xiaos outstanding performance had attracted countless peoples attention. The most important thing for e-sports clubs were their achievements, followed by their star players. There was no doubt that Wei Xiao had infinite potential in both aspects. He had good results, he was very popular, and he was just like a dark horse storming into the China competition zone. Could Lu Feng let go now? Could he go and heal his shoulder, get rid of this old injury, and face the global competitions in his best state? Before now, Lu Feng had thought that he couldnt. But Wei Xiaos words had woken him up. CCCould it be that you only want to play for this one year? CCIve just come back to the team, are you going to leave me behind? No. Lu Feng didnt care about missing the opportunity to fight against the Team of Gods, and he didnt care about who won the doubles championship. But, he couldnt not care about Wei Xiao. Hed brought Wei Xiao back, and he didnt want to play with him for only one year. Wei Xiao was only 19 years old. His competitive career had only just begun, and he was unwilling to withdraw from the competition arena. Lu Feng didnt want to watch Wei Xiaos brilliance from beneath the stage. He wanted to stand on the stage with him! Lu Feng didnt know what would happen if he continued to let his shoulder injury drag on. Hed already put it off for a long time. Even if he kept exercising, even if he was self-disciplined, even if he had regular physiotherapy, it was still deteriorating. It was just like Wei Xiao had said. After playing this year, what would he do if his shoulder worsened to the point where it couldnt be cured? Was he willing to retire? Was he willing to let Wei Xiao go? He wasnt willing. Lu Feng dialed Xiang Lius phone number, Contact the coaching team, I have something to tell them. In order to go get treatment, he would first have to have a showdown. FTW was bound to usher in a huge shockwave. Yet, Lu Feng wasnt worried. Wei Xiaos bright eyes flashed in his head, his gaze as bright as the sun, and his heart warmed up. After walking alone for so long, he was finally no longer on his own. There was silence in the conference room. Lu Fengs understated explanation of the facts shocked everyone present. Chen Fengs face was snow white, with no trace of color, Wh-when did it start? Hed been with Lu Feng for three years, from the start of the new FTW. Hed always been here, but hed actually never known about Lu Fengs injury. He was in a trance, and for a moment, he couldnt hear anything around him. Tang Chen was a little calmer. He asked Lu Feng, Do you have confidence in the treatment? Lu Feng: 70%. The entire room sucked in a breath. Xiang Liu had been worried for so many years, and he now finally had a chance to speak up, 70% is already very optimistic. Even if you cant recover completely, itll still be in a much better state than it is now! Chen Feng slowly came back to his senses, If its like this the regular season Lu Feng looked at Tang Chen, Brother Tang, can you still play? Although Tang Chen has retired, he hasnt yet gone through the formal processes. At present, FTW was still short of a substitute. Chen Feng intended to have Tang Chen wait another season. A team had to have a substitute, but it had already been a pleasant surprise for FTW to be able to recruit Ning Zhehan and Wei Xiao this year, and there was no way for them to come up with a good enough substitute. The players in the second team would still need another year to step up to the task. At present, Tang Chen was the best candidate. So, Chen Feng had been putting it off and hadnt let him finish the retirement process. Tang Chen replied, Yes. Lu Feng nodded. Normally, Tang Chen was the most careless player in the whole team, but after playing for so many years, he was now undoubtedly the most experienced and seasoned player. While Lu Feng wasnt here, FTW would be a little more stable with Tang Chen holding down the fort. Chen Feng took a deep breath and analyzed calmly, This years regular season is different from previous years. Its very important. This was also the reason why Lu Feng had been so worried before. During the regular season in previous years, as long as they made it to the top four of their group, they would be able to enter the playoffs. The playoffs were based on an elimination system, going from eight into four, and four into two, and then the final two teams determined the champion and runner up positions. However, this year, the competition committee had made changes in order to enhance the intensity of the regular season, and make it more fun to watch. The concept of a winner group and a loser group came into being. The top two teams in the regular season groups were in the winners group. The third and fourth placed teams were in the losers group. After the winner group teams entered the playoffs and competed, any team that lost would fall into the loser group. The losers would compete. If they lost again, they would be eliminated, and their season would end there. So, those in the winners group would have two chances to enter the playoffs. Unfortunately, falling into the losers group would be very miserable for any team. Not only would they have to play more games, each fight would also be a game between life and death. The addition of this new competition system made the regular season very heated. Those whod originally wanted to use the regular season for training no longer dared to take it lightly because every point was crucial, and every change in the rankings affected their final chances at victory. There was a difference between first and second place, and there was also a difference between third and fourth place. A teams performance in the regular season was no longer something that could be taken lightly. Instead, it was now a benefit that was linked to the teams fault tolerance rate in the playoffs! To put it bluntly. If FTW won the first place in their group during the regular season, then the playoffs would be easy mode for them. If FTW came fourth in their group during the regular season, then the playoffs would be hell mode. Not to mention It wasnt that easy to enter the top four. If they fell to the fifth, sixth, or seventh places, would they even need to talk about the global competition? They wouldnt even be able to play in the divisional championships. The author has something to say: Im afraid that you guys wont understand Well, they didnt do it all the way, but why is Little Xiao so tired? [old driver warning] xiin C WX will wake up and revert back to energizer bunny mode~ Chapter 104: Wei Xiao: Tell me loudly, what place do we want to get! Wei Xiao woke up. The blackout curtains were pulled down, and the room was dark besides a small dimly-lit floor lamp. There was a high backed chair and several magazines on the table beside it. Wei Xiaos eyes moved around slowly. He took in the low stool, the navy blue and milk white carpet, and the wall painting of a sunrise over the sea ! Wei Xiao came back to his senses. He was in the captains room, lying on the captains bed. Earlier Wei Xiaos face flushed red. It was the first time hed experienced such a thing in his life. After thinking about it for a moment, his face was completely red. When he thought about it in detail Wei Xiao drilled into the quilt and became a silkworm pupa. The captain was so amazing No, wait Why had the captain made him come so many times. Towards the end, his legs had been all soft and weak. It wasnt that he was hopeless, why was it that he couldnt help himself at all Wei Xiao didnt dare to think about it anymore. He buried his face in the quilt and made his face even redder. When he finally recovered from the heat that suffused his face, Wei Xiaos thoughts went back to proper things. They had a training match in the afternoon! Wei Xiao jumped out of bed, his feet bare as he stepped on the carpet, and he finally found his pants on the stool at the end of the bed as well as the cell phone stuffed into his pants. He opened it and took a look, and then his head spun dizzilyCC It was three oclock! Hed actually slept in for the training match. Why hadnt the captain come to wake him up? Wei Xiao quickly got dressed. He walked past the dressing mirror on the way out and stopped abruptly. In the mirror, he was wearing his own trousers, but hed also pulled on the captains t-shirt. The clothes looked just right on the captains body, but it seemed a little loose and empty when it was on his body. His figure couldnt hold it up at all, but he wasnt much shorter than the captain. There was just five-six-seven-eight centimeters of height difference! Oh, but his figure was a long way off. The scene of Lu Feng leaning over him, propped up on his arms, flashed past Wei Xiaos brain F*ck! Wei Xiao patted himself on the faceCC In his brain, it was want more vs going to die from too much sex. Since hed worn the wrong clothing, he naturally had to get changed again. While changing, he finally noticed the red spots on his neck. Wei Xiao cleared his throat, then pulled the team uniforms neckline up to the highest level. He wished that he could even put on a hat. That would have to do. He had to hurry downstairs; hed slept too well this time! Wei Xiaos mood was completely bright and optimistic. The gloom from before had been swept away, and his mind was filled with the brilliant road ahead. As long as the captain went to get treated, as long as it was cured, nothing else was a problem. During the regular season, he would definitely be able to lead FTW to the first place position in the group. In the playoffs, he would definitely hand over an FTW that was in full swing back to the captain. After that Not only would he be able to see the captain take the singles championship from the other ex-players in the Team of Gods, he could also play in the doubles with the captain. They could also stand together on the 5v5 decisive stage and create a new legend for Glory! When he thought of these things, Wei Xiaos blood was boiling and he wished that he could go and play 10,000 games right now! Well, this years domestic competition zone was pretty good. There was Little Moon-moon, Eurostar-star, Asleep-sleep, all these good men that hed trained up. CCFinally, the Wei Xiao whod returned back to China for a little more than ten days was completely invigorated. Wei Xiao pushed open the door to the training room and was given a scare by the silence inside. The coach and captain werent there, and the three little ones all sat in front of their computers in a daze. They were all startled as soon as the door opened, especially Little Ning, who quickly avoided his gaze as soon as he saw that it was Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: ? Yue Wenle bowed his head, staring at his keyboard like there were countless potato chips there just waiting for him to pick them out. Wei Xiaos line of sight swept across, and he looked at Brother Cai. Bai Cai: ! He instantly straightened up and sat properly. Wei Xiao walked over, Whats the matter? Wasnt there a training match in the afternoon? Bai Cai: Ning Zhehans head dropped even lower. Yue Wenle seemed just about to gnaw on the expensive keyboard that had keycaps worth several hundred apiece. Wei Xiao asked, I wasnt here, so you guys were hammered into seclusion? Todays training match was against TPT. Although this years TPT was very strong, it wasnt to the point where FTW would become this downcast. Theyd just come out of the winter training camp. What kind of big ups and downs hadnt they seen? Even if Eurostar-stars shooter was cunning, it shouldnt be as bad as Daddy Hyun, right? Bai Cais mouth opened and closed, and he reluctantly forced out, Ah, hey, do you want to drink some watermelon juice? Wei Xiao became even more confused, Whats going on? Old Bai, did you stew and eat Soybean? Brother Cai: What are you thinking? How would he make a move against his nephew?! Cowering Ning was really afraid. He stood up and said, Ill-Ill go and squeeze juice for Brother Xiao! Yue Wenle kept his head bowed as he stood up, Ill go with you! Bai Cai didnt want to be the one facing a crazy Wei Xiao alone. He stopped them, Dont go anywhere! Ning Zhehan turned back, looking like he was about to cry. Yue Wenle: He also wasnt far off from crying. Wei Xiao looked here, then there, and then spoke solemnly, Talk. Bai Cais heart trembled. Wei Xiao was in a good mood at the moment, and even if the sky collapsed, he would still have a smile on his face as he held it up, Whats going on, it cant be that the coach is going to dismiss me from the team because I overslept, right? Bai Cai looked at the Wei Xiao who could still joke around and felt that his heart and lungs were in pain. At this second, Wei Xiaoxiao could still act recklessly, but he might end up crying in the next second. Brother Cai couldnt help but think back to an hour ago. Chen Fengs face was cold as he announced the news of the captains shoulder injury as well as how he would be going for physiotherapy during the regular season. Theyd instantly felt like the sky was falling, and the earth was breaking apart. The coach had continued lightly, Dont worry. Captain Lu is going for early treatment so that he can have an early recovery. Based on your current strength, our domestic regular season will be childs play. Ning Zhehan looked dazed. Yue Wenle was dumbfounded. Brother Cai: F*ck. The first thing he thought of was Little Lunatic Wei. He thought about how Wei Xiao would explode when he learned about it. In the entire FTW, there was nobody who would dare to say that they werent a brainless Close fan. Oh, Wei Xiao wasnt. He was a serious brainless Close fan, the type for which there was no cure. As soon as the news came out, ordinary brainless Close fans like them had felt like the sky was falling. As a critically brainless fan, how would Little Lunatic Wei collapse? Bai Cai was afraid to even think about it. Chen Feng finished explaining everything and said, The training match for the afternoon has been rescheduled. Everyone should have a rest. So, theyd sat in the training room like this until Wei Xiao pushed open the door. In that one hour of time, theyd sorted out their own emotions. But when they saw Wei Xiao come in, the three little ones were once again nervous enough to explode. As brothers whod fought side by side, nobody was clearer than they were about Wei Xiaos feelings towards Close. They didnt know where Wei Xiao had gone off to just now, causing him to actually miss Chen Fengs words. They even seriously suspected that the coach had done so on purpose! He mustve deliberately diverted Wei Xiao so that they would have to face this gale themselves! Little Ning had already made up his mind that he wouldnt speak up even if he had to die. Yue Wenle wished that he could shrink into a potato chip that had no sense of existence. There was only Bai Cai F*ck! He was just a weak, helpless, pitiful little support. Why did he have to experience such a sea of hardships? Um Wei Xiao raised his eyebrows. Brother White Cabbages heart was thudding hard, Take a few deep breaths with me first. Wei Xiaos expression sank, Speak human words. Bai Cai was wary of him, especially when he had a cold expression on his face, Dont go crazy when you hear about this. Were also very shocked, but I dont think that it has to be a bad thing, and theres hope. As long as we can survive for two or three months, our FTW will be the master of tigers and wolves, indestructible and peerless Brother Cai was regretting it, regretting that he hadnt paid enough attention in school and his vocabulary was so poor! Wei Xiao: Bai Cai closed his eyes and got to the point, The captain has a shoulder injury. He has to leave the team and go to North America for treatment. It can be cured in two months! He simply got straight to the point, stressing the last sentence. He wished he could repeat it three times and use it to calm down Brother Xiaos fierce anger. As soon as Bai Cais voice fell, Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle couldnt keep themselves from closing their eyes as well. It wasnt just out of fear, it was also out of heartache. The stinging pain that theyd felt when they heard the news had to be at least ten times more intense for Wei Xiao. They all knew how important Close was to Wei Xiao. They could all see how infatuated Wei Xiao was with their captain. The clearer they were about this, the more aware they were, the more heartache and distress they felt for him. The training room was quiet. Brother Cai, who had his eyes closed, discovered that the volcano hadnt erupted, the storm hadnt broken out, and it seemed that even the cold and freezing weather hadnt appeared. He quietly opened his eyes and snuck a glance at Wei Xiao Wei Xiao punched him lightly on the chest, What? Bai Cai: Wei Xiaos voice held a trace of a smile, You guys are afraid that Ill be sad? His tone was so relaxed that everyone slowly opened up their eyes and looked at him in amazement. Bai Cai asked him directly, You you already knew? Wei Xiaos heart was warm when he saw them acting like this. His voice also gentled, Yeah, I knew. Brother Vegetable & Old Yue & Little Ning: . Wei Xiao sat down in his chair, his pair of long legs propped up on a corner of the table, his figure lazy and loose, Dont act like were at a funeral, hey, the captain going to get treatment is a good thing. When he comes back, our FTW will be the best in the world, well kill gods when we meet gods, and kill buddhas when we meet buddhas! The three little ones: Wei Xiao continued, Its just two or three months, just one regular season. Fellow brothers, tell me loudly, what place do we want to get! Brother Cai: Ning Zhehan: Yue Wenle: Wei Xiao stared at them. The three of them acted like theyd been targeted by a bandit leader and spoke, First Speak up. First place. F*ck, did you guys skip lunch? First place!!! Bandit Wei was satisfied, Great, Ive recorded it. The three of them: ?????? Wei Xiao was amused, I recorded it in my heart. Bai Cai was going crazy, Will you die if you dont act like a brat?! A small puff of laughter escaped from Little Ning. Yue Wenles expression also relaxed. Wei Xiao set down his legs, placed his elbows on the table, and then spoke in a low voice, Let me tell you, I have a captain buff on me. Little Ning hadnt seen much of the world and was instantly fooled, What do you mean? Wei Xiao shot Brother Cai a look. Brother Cai: Wei Xiao patted the table, Little Bai, quickly explain it to everyone. Bai Cai: F*ck your daddy! He might swear, but he really did start to explain, You guys are young and dont know about it, but two years ago when Wei Xiao was in the youth training camp, as long as he led the team, the team would definitely win, no matter who his teammates were. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle werent very clear about this period of history, Is that true? Bai Cai was also someone who had many tricks up his sleeves. He spoke mysteriously, Its true You guys also know how the youth training camps are. Team combinations are randomized. If you end up with a garbage teammate, they can drag you down to hell. But Wei Xiao refused to back down, and one time, when he got a bunch of crappy teammates, he actually managed to win an overwhelming victory! Uncle Wei nodded, then gestured for Brother Cai to continue giving Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle a general lesson on his great achievements back then, stabilizing the morale of the team. Outside the training room. Chen Feng had a stomach ache from trying to stifle his laughter. Lu Feng looked at the unbridled youth through the crack in the door and felt an infinite warmth in his heart. When they arrived, Bai Cai had just spoken out the truth. The atmosphere in the room hadnt been very good, so theyd stopped outside. Then, they heard Wei Xiaos voiceCCtell me loudly, what place were going to take. First First place. First place!!! It was still a cold winter and there was no hint of spring outside, but a blazing sun had risen up insideCC Lighting up the entire base. The three small ones were completely cheered up, and even Chen Feng felt like the clouds hovering over his chest had dispersed. The road ahead was very difficult, but what was there to be afraid of? They had such a team, they had such a great group of young people, and nobody could stop their high spirits! The training match had originally been postponed. But Wei Xiao complained that it was boring, and Xiang Liu went to contact TPT so that they could bring back the scheduled training match. The FTW that was in high spirits hammered TPT until they were bleeding and dizzy. In the TPT club, Eurostar-star turned his head to look at his own captain, Are they f*cking human? Fu Li pushed up his glasses and commented precisely, A group of mad dogs. When evening came, it was only ten oclock when Wei Xiao urged Lu Feng to go rest. Lu Feng: Its fine. Wei Xiao had been serving him tea and water all night, his actions very considerate and meticulous, You still have to take a bath, and youll read after your bath. Do you still have work to deal with Brother Cai squinted at him, Mother-in-law. Wei Xiao ignored him and continued to coax his captain, Go, go, go, I also want to sleep. Brother Cai poked at him again, Can you even sleep? Wei Xiao glared at him, If you say another word, Ill take away your purple clay pot. Bai Cai was shocked and quickly went to protect his treasure that was worth 3888 yuan. After dealing with Brother Cai, Wei Xiao continued to watch Lu Feng eagerly. Who could stand this? Lu Fengs thin lips moved, Okay. Wei Xiao really did leave early, Everyone should rest early. Were going to have a great start tomorrow! Tomorrow would be the opening game. Although the results didnt matter, it was still very encouraging for team morale if they won. As soon as they left the training room, Wei Xiaos hand slid down and bumped against Lu Fengs hand. Their fingers intertwined. Wei Xiao leaned against him, Captain Now that he was in a good mood, the tone of voice that scratched at his heart had come out again. Lu Feng wanted to hear what he had to say, but he was also a little afraid, Hm? Wei Xiao looked around. When he saw that nobody was around, he lowered his voice and said, What you did in the morning, Ill help you do it too. After saying so, his face was already explosively red. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao vowed seriously, I can do it too, just yeah I can! The captain could do it, so he could too. After taking a bath, Wei Xiao found that he couldnt quite do it. He knelt down on the bed and said incredulously, Its so big?! Sorry, he didnt mean to, hed been too arrogant! With this Would he still be able to use his mouth to speak tomorrow?! xiin: okay! were done with the angst~ (i also only really figured out it was a blowjob after translating this chapter) Chapter 105: Do you know why you cant sleep here now? But there was no way to go back on what hed said. Wei Xiaos character was the type where he had to do what he said, even if it seemed like it would be fatal. His heart thumped, and he was about to Lu Feng got up, and the two of them changed positions. Wei Xiao toppled onto the bed and was stunned, Ah Lu Feng hugged his waist and flipped him over. Wei Xiao knew what he was going to do, No captain about that wu Afterwards, Wei Xiaos mouth was still very agile and sharp, but his legs hurt, hurt to the point where he was moaning and groaning. They hadnt even really done anything, but he already knew how to act coquettish and well-behaved. If they really did something Oh, he would probably not dare to moan and groan anymore. He wouldnt even be able to get out of bed! To Wei Xiao, Lu Fengs shoulder now seemed to be made out of crystal, the ultra-thin kind that would shatter with a touch. He was very careful and tentative during the day, and cautious at night. Even when that happened, he would try to avoid it, and once he found that Lu Fengs shoulder was under any kind of stress, he would immediately cooperate with him, acting so obedient that it made people wish they could But Captain Lu couldnt bear to do it. Taking a bite of his neck was already his limit. The two of them took another bath. After they came out, Wei Xiao swiftly darted into the bed, drilling in until only his eyes were exposed and said, Im going to stay here tonight! Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao accused him, You cant just tease and wu Lu Feng kissed his mouth, You really dare to say anything. Wei Xiaos eyes curved, Isnt it because you insist on driving me away? Lu Feng pulled him into his arms. Wei Xiao had a psychological shadow about his shoulder and was flustered even when he pillowed his head on his healthy right shoulder, I can sleep on a pillow. Lu Feng pressed his restless little head down, Behave. Wei Xiao discovered it, Damn, captain, you Lu Feng: Shut up. Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. Lu Feng stared at him, Do you know why you cant sleep here now? Wei Xiaos legs still hurt. He shifted away from him slightly. Lu Feng pulled him in close again, Sleep. Wei Xiao was prodded until his heart and head all heated up, Um Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiao licked his lower lip, In fact, I can ah There was always someone to show him with their actions: In fact, you cant. After Wei Xiao had washed up three times, he regretted it, Id better go back to my room and sleep. Lu Feng held him by the waist, If you say a little less, it wouldnt happen so much. By now, Wei Xiao had put his clothes back on properly and didnt dare to stick too close to him to keep warm anymore. After messing around like this, it was already almost twelve oclock. Lu Fengs biological clock was very accurate, and hed been briefly sated. He gradually felt sleepy. Unfortunately, Wei Xiao couldnt sleep. This wasnt the time for him to sleep, and especially after hed made up for his sleep during the day, he was now filled with energy. Captain~ Mm. Will you be leaving after the opening game? Lu Feng opened his eyes, Basically. Wei Xiao really didnt dare to pillow his head on his arm. The weight of his head was on the pillow, but he was very willing to be held by Lu Feng. His cheek pressed down, rubbing against his shoulder, Its going to be more than two months. Lu Feng felt like his heart was being tickled by his actions, Regretting it? Wei Xiao instantly looked up at him, No way! Lu Fengs eyes held a trace of a smile, Cant bear to part with me? Wei Xiao actually felt a little embarrassed. He rubbed against him again, Of course. Lu Fengs heart felt like it had been smeared with honey. It was too sweet to be true. Wei Xiao spoke in a low whisper, We havent been together for that long Even if they started calculating time from when he joined the team, it had only been about a month. If they only counted the time after theyd gotten together, then it was a pitifully small amount of time. Especially since after theyd come back from the winter training, Lu Feng had told him to participate in the singles competition resulting in a Wei Xiao who had been sulky the whole time and hadnt spent much time hanging out with Lu Feng. It hadnt been easy for the two of them to work things out, but now Lu Feng was going to go to the other side of the earth. How could Wei Xiao bear to part with him? He had never been the type of person to hide his emotions and would show whatever he felt. The more he thought about it, the more reluctant he was to part. The more he couldnt bear it, the stickier he became. He was no longer satisfied with just rubbing Lu Feng with his cheek and lifted his head up to kiss Lu Feng. Lu Fengs eyes deepened slightly, his hands pinching Wei Xiaos waist under the quilt. Wei Xiao cried out, then laughed, Captain, youre so bad. Lu Feng: . Wei Xiao was only bratty with his words. His legs were still a little afraid, so he said honestly, Its a kiss just a kiss, after you leave, itll be a long time before I can His heart felt sour as he spoke, and he hugged him more tightly. Lu Feng was also reluctant to part. The arms that were hugging him also exerted a bit more force, Be good. He kissed him on the forehead. Wei Xiaos voice was muffled, You have to recuperate well. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao: Think about me every day. Lu Feng: Yes. Send me messages when you have time. Okay. And voice messages. Yes. And videos! Okay. Also and wu If he wanted him to sleep, then he had to tire him out. Lu Feng could only coax him to sleep like this. Finally, they ushered in the opening game of the regular season. The audience whod been waiting for a long time arrived in the stadium early, wanting to see their own husband, big brother, cub, darling in person! FTW didnt set out that early. The match was scheduled for six oclock, and they didnt arrive until about five oclock. The team van drove to the back entrance staff passage, but there were still some old fans whod set up camp there. They immediately began to scream when they saw the familiar license place number. Close! God Lu! Captain Lu, Captain Lu! There was no doubt that all the fans were all shouting Closes name. It was very normal. The fans in the e-sports circle were much more realistic than the fans in the entertainment industry. It didnt matter what they looked like; strength was the absolute truth. If they were powerful, then they were handsome. If they were strong and handsome, then they deserved to have several hundred million fans. In the car, Wei Xiao was sour and jealous, Hes not your husband! Indeed, a girl had seen Lu Feng through the window and started screaming, Hubby, look at me, look at me! Brother Cai, who was in the front seat, heard this and sneered at him, Your last name is actually Chen, right. Wei Xiao: ? Brother Cai: NicknameCCShanxi Old Chens Vinegar. Wei Xiao: Wei Xiao was naturally seated next to Lu Feng, but because everyone was in the car, he didnt even dare to hold his hand. At this moment, his heart was sour, and his hands were no longer well behaved. How could Lu Feng not understand him? He was wearing a black jacket today, but it was too hot and hed hung it on the hook of the seat in front of him. Lu Feng tugged gently, draping his coat over his legs. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng held his slender fingers, hiding their hands under the coat. Wei Xiao was satisfied, his fingers scratching lightly against his palm. Lu Feng pinched him. Wei Xiao chuckled, the corners of his lips curved so high they could touch the sun. The Brother Cai who knew nothing came back to deliver them drinks, and he saw Wei Xiao laughing, F*ck, are you poisonous?! Wei Xiaos smile disappeared in one second, What. Bai Cai: I called you old vinegar, but youre still so happy? Wei Xiao was complacent, You dont understand shit. What was omitted wasCCyou single dog, you dont understand shit! Brother Cai didnt understand him; Brother Cai probably couldnt understand him for a lifetime! The organizers had requirements for formal competitions, and theyd arranged for a make-up artist. After all, the players would all be on camera. Even if it was a profession that wasnt based on their faces, it was better if they looked a bit more handsome. FTWs make-up artist was very cheerful. The make-up artist had endless praise for the five starters, Your skin is so nice, its even paler than mine after make-up, hey, Quiet, your face is so tender, theres no need for foundation; Closes eyebrows are too stylish, theres no need to do anything extra Later, it was only Yue Wenle who took a bit longer. It wasnt that God Le wasnt handsome. In fact, Yue Wenles skin color was the palest, and he was even a little bit paler than Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was a clean, warm, pale color, while Yue Wenle was a kind of deathly pale. The make-up artist had to put in a lot of effort to add some color back onto his face. In fact, over the years, the opening game had become more for entertainment than a real competition. There were no points for it anyway, and it was between the first place and runner up from the previous year. Just having fun was enough. However, it was different this year. They didnt know why, but as soon as FTWs five players appeared, the atmosphere in the entire venue changed. The audience at the scene were shocked, Theyre so serious! For some reason, I have the illusion that Im in the audience stands watching the finals. Worth it, bought a regular season ticket to watch the finals. Speaking up quietly, does FTW pick their members based on their appearance?! Looking at them in reality at the scene, all of them had long legs and high appearance values. Deadly! It wasnt just the live audience, even the people watching in the live broadcast room had discovered itCC Theyre so serious, is FTW scared to lose? After all, this years RR is very different. They won against EVE in the winter training camp, which made them famous everywhere. Is FTW under pressure? Maybe they dont want to lose to RR? Even if its just an opening game, and theres no points for it, maybe they dont want to lose face as the champions. Tsk tsk, its quite exciting. I think that FTWs just making a big fuss out of nothing. If they take it so seriously, then lose, itll be even more humiliating. Hahaha, does the R fan above feel good saying that? Your familys Moon God cares the most about winning and losing. Do those who lose their temper when they lose not feel embarrassed dissing others? So what if we lose our temper! Its still better than your FTWs bunch of cowardly babies! F*ck, how is our FTW cowardly? We If you guys have the skill, then win against L&P and win against Pro! Didnt you guys just win against EVE by fluke? And theyre last years fourth place. R fans, dont be so shameless. So what if they were fourth place? Its still better than you guys who took advantage of other peoples bad states and ended up getting hammered by God Kim! Tch, there was no doubting that the fans of both sides were tearing into each other. This was very normal. In the e-sports circle, regardless of whether they were audience members or players, as senior participants in a MOBA game, how could they survive without flaming each other? The combat effectiveness of the scrolling comments was amazing. Even before the competition began, the room management had already begun to fight. They muted, banned, and cleared the screen, their hand speed no less than that of professional players! The players adjusted their equipment. The referees checked over their set-up, and the commentators gave exaggerated praise at the front of the stage. After praising FTW, praising RR, praising Close, and praising Moonlit. They finally also took out the Porsche and joked about it. Commentator A: I heard that Captain Mo personally drove the car to the FTW base? Commentator B: Isnt that so? FTW even invited him to stay for lunch. This lunch was a little expensive, hey. Theres no other way, who told White to reincarnate as the god of luck? Then, they started talking about the previous arena competition, giving a round of praise to Quiet. Nine light arcs, thats really good. FTWs future is impressive! At present, out of all the players in all the competition zones, the only players who are able to brush out nine light arcs are all in our China competition zone. Something to be proud of. The noisy fans in the scrolling comments all shut up. When faced with absolute strength, any trash talk was nothing but paper tigers. No matter whose fans they were, they had to admit that Quiet had been explosively badass that day. In particular, that direct video that FTWs official blog releasedCC The cool youth showing off his operations online, it was so cool it made their legs go soft. Nine light arc was synonymous with Close Now, his successor could also do it. The FTWs inherited shadow thief was worthy of its reputation! The scrolling comments had shut up, but there was a different atmosphere in the FTW team chatCC Chen Feng: Quiet, do you want the shadow thief? Today, Wei Xiao was a little cub who spoiled his captain like crazy, Lets see what the captain uses. He could play with anything. He wanted to cooperate well with the captain and fly together with him in the canyon. Brother Cai glanced at him, You dont want to show off your nine light arcs again? It had only been a solo game before. If he could show it off during the opening game, it would become a very thorough explosion. Wei Xiao: Um Brother Cai rolled his eyes, Enough already, the whole internet knows that youre badass. Quiet, you dont have to put on an act. Wei Xiao blinked his eyes, Um He was serious, Which one of you can tell me, how did I manage to do nine light arcs? Everyone in FTW: Wei Xiao was still humbly asking for advice with an open mind, I watched the video, and I watched the broadcast replay, but the problem is I really dont remember how I managed to do nine light arcs. He really was confused. That day, hed just learned about the captains shoulder injury. Hed been so sad that he didnt even remember how hed hammered Moonlit to death. After the event, a whole group of people praised him for being amazing. Only then did Wei Xiao realize that hed brushed out nine light arcs. But the problem was How had he done it?! Brother Cai almost smashed his face into the keyboard, You f*cking The recordings from the team chat would be edited and released. Wei Xiao: Its okay, this section can be broadcast. I, Quiet, can sit right here and brush out nine light arcs with my eyes closed, but Ill never admit that I brushed them out with my eyes open. Brother Cai was about to kneel down in respect, When it comes to acting badass, I only respect Brother Xiao. xiin: apparently WXs voice really turns LF on *spreads hands* Chapter 106: The double jungler CP is real. Wei Xiao was too lazy to explain. Explaining was like covering up, and what he would be covering up was the truth. He had indeed used nine light arcs, even though he didnt actually know how hed done it. The first wave of banned talents was finished. It was time to start choosing talents. FTW didnt ban the immortal warlock, but RR had banned it themselves. Wei Xiao: Little Ning, theyre scared that youll use it. Ning Zhehan: I How can my immortal warlock compare with Moon Gods? Wei Xiao: Be a bit more confident. Whered your confidence go? Ning Zhehan: The entire team was amused. Chen Feng glared at him, Thats enough from you. With this brat here, even a problem as big as the sky didnt seem that big! As soon as the news of Close temporarily leaving the team was released after the opening game, the fans would probably lose it completely. And it would be interesting when they went back to rewatch the opening gameCCholy shit, your captain is about to leave, but you guys can still laugh? Should it be said that FTW was unconcerned, or should it be said that they were very unconcerned? When he thought about it like that, Chen Feng felt that it was a little funny. Come on, He turned his attention back to the BP process, What do you want to use? Everyone named their own heroes, but when Lu Feng spoke up, it made silence spread out across their headsets. Ill use the shadow thief. Chen Feng paused for a moment, Youre going to play jungler? The position each player would play in each round of a formal competition had to be submitted before the start of the game and couldnt be changed on the spot. Of course, it didnt matter for the opening game, since they didnt have to follow the rules so strictly for an entertainment game. Wei Xiao: Alright, captain, you want to play jungler? I can go to the top lane! This was Lu Fengs first game in the domestic regular season, and it might also be the last. If he wanted to use the shadow thief to give his fans a display, it would be pretty good! Lu Feng shook his head, Not playing jungler. Wei Xiao: Eh? Lu Feng even made it a point to repeat deliberately, I dont like playing jungler. Everyone understood what he meant when he said this. The team chat wasnt a private chat channel, and if it wasnt dealt with well, it might cause malicious speculation. Lu Feng had changed from playing jungler to the top lane, and even now, there were still people who hated on Quiet, saying that hed snatched away Closes position. Lu Feng was saying these things to defend Quiet and also clarify the situation for him. Wei Xiaos heart thumped, and his mouth turned bratty, So it turns out you dont like me. Brother Cai: Lu Feng: Without waiting for the others to express their silence, Wei Xiao continued talking, Im a jungler. You actually dont like me. Queen Chen was getting angry, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: Eh! Chen Feng: Say another word of nonsense, and Ill get you a holy priest for your jungler position. Wei Xiao was shocked, I was wrong, Im sorry, please forgive me! Chen Feng snorted coldly and asked Lu Feng, Youre going to use the shadow thief for the top lane? Lu Feng: Going to give it a try. Chen Feng: Fine. Wei Xiao couldnt hold back, Then, Ill use the power thief? The power thief was a little tankier, and he could support the captain. Chen Feng stared at him. Wei Xiao quickly shut up and made a zipping up motion at his mouth, Well do everything according to the coachs words, Ill play whatever you choose. It had to be said that Wei Little Xiao was very good at coaxing people. Chen Feng only maintained his cold expression for three seconds, and then broke down, Use the immortal thief. Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide, This is it suitable? Chen Feng: Is it that you dont believe in yourself, or that you dont believe in your captain? In the game, it just happened to be Wei Xiaos turn to pick a talent. He instantly picked the immortal thief, then said a sentence that was as immature and lame as could be, Alright, then! Two thieves coming into the world, going up against the heavens and the earth! It almost rhymed. Even without mentioning how much the FTWs internal team chat could make their ears ache, their choice in heroes had also blown up the whole venue. What does this mean? Whos using the shadow thief, whos using the immortal thief, whos playing jungler? These three soul searching questions had obviously knocked everyone out. At first, when FTW took the shadow thief, it didnt come as a surprise to anyone. After all, Quiet had just shown everyone nine light arcs, and it was normal to have him show it off again in a formal arena. Everyone was looking forward to it. They couldnt hear the team chat, and they didnt know that it was Close who wanted to use the shadow thief. If they knew, the live stream studio wouldve blown up long ago. The two sides picked a round of talents, and there were no surprises until Wei Xiao, who was the last one in FTW, picked out the immortal thief. The scrolling comments were also confused, Um did Quiets hand slip? During the BP section, each player would choose talents according to their randomized position in the BP link, and it wasnt necessarily the talent they would be playing themselves. After the entire BP ended, they would be given 30 seconds to adjust talents. Based on the situation they could see, theyd chosen two jungler talents in one game. No matter how they adjusted it, it was clearly not quite right! They cant have really made such a low level mistake, right? F*ck, could this be FTWs new routine? The CP fans mixed in, Oh my god, is the double jungler CP real??? Its locked in and cant be changed, arent they just teasing the audience like this! Shocked, shocked, quickly tell me who is using the shadow thief, and who is using the immortal thief. Who is playing top lane, and who is the jungler? Nobody had ever expected that although Close and Quiet were only two people, they were still able to make the audience think so much and speculate so many things. The commentators were also very excited. They used more professional language and a sharper angle to analyze FTWs unconventional routine! The 30 seconds of adjustment time ended, and their line-up was confirmed! FTW: Shadow thief, Immortal thief, Light mage, Elemental shaman, Frost hunter. RR: Death knight, Berserker thief, Spirit mage, Holy priest, White hunter. Nobody had time to analyze the line-up anymore. Their eyes and hearts were all filled withCC Close is the one playing the shadow thief! Close is going to use the shadow thief to play in the top lane! Holy shit, the shadow thief can be used for the top lane?! My goose bumps are all popping out, the great demon king is really too bold. Thinking about it carefully the top lane is a place with infinite possibilities! Looking forward to it, looking forward to it, this ticket price is damned worth it! The opening game was being watched by countless people, and various teams were also very curious about it. 2021 was an extraordinary year for the China competition zone. With the rise of the new generation, those whod performed well during the winter training camp had all handed in beautifully written exam results, giving the audience in China a feeling of unlimited expectations. There was always the feeling that there was new hope for China this year. There was always the feeling that they could expect more from China this year. There was always the feeling that the China competition zone, which had been in a slump for several years, would regain its glory! With this belief, all eyes were on the first match of this new season. They wanted to see what kind of sparks would fly out when the two teams at the top of the China competition zone collided! Needless to mention, FTW had always been a pure jungler core team. Regardless of whether it was during the Close era, or after Quiet had entered the stage, they always used the jungler as the core to light up fires everywhere. RR was different. Their biggest core was Moonlit. Moonlit was a mid-laner, and there werent many teams who used mid-laners as their core. For example, the most famous one was EVE, where Xie He as their mid-laner could carry the entire arena. Money was RRs jungler. This players most famous attribute was that he had money, but they all had to admit that he was the soul of RR. If he hadnt gone to RR, this team would be a bottom of the class team with no achievements. After Money had joined the team, the Moonlit whod still been wandering around on the international servers had caught his eye. Money ignored his teams opposition and forcibly pulled the inexperienced Moonlit to the youth training camp. After practicing with him for less than a month, Money brought Moonlit back to RR and made him into their starting mid-laner. At the time, nobody had been optimistic about Moonlit, because Asleep and Eurostar, who were from the same period, were much better than he was. However, Money was only interested in Moonlit and coaxed him endlessly to join RR. As it turned out, Mo Hui had a good eye, and Moonlit was indeed the most suited for RR. A team that lacked a pillar needed a piercing thorn like Moonlit who could hamstring the enemy more than anything else! RRs play style was something that FTW had also studied. Their strongest play style was their mid-jungler linkage, which was Money and Moonlits cooperation. Chen Feng told Ning Zhehan, Be careful, theyll definitely try to get you in the first wave. Ning Zhehan: Got it! Chen Feng then looked at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao spoke up first, Little Ning, I may have to wrong you in this game. Timid Nings heart thudded: What-what was the situation? Wei Xiao stared at the shadow thief on the screen and said, Im going to go and explode their top lane with the captain. He spoke this sentence very calmly, but it had a very great impact on Ning Zhehan. There wasnt anyone in the new generation who didnt worship Close, and there was nobody who didnt look forward to seeing his shadow thief. As soon as he thought about how this might be the captains only game during the regular season Ning Zhehan spoke solemnly, Dont worry about me! Play happily, show off to the fullest extent, and he would try his hardest to defend the mid-lane! Wei Xiao: In that case, I wont be polite. In this game, he wanted to be with Close. He wanted to see what a jungler who matched Close looked like, and he wanted to have the whole world know what FTWs top-jungler linkage was like! Lu Feng: Lets go, red buff first. Wei Xiao stared at the screen, Okay. The red buff they were referring to wasnt FTWs red jungler buff, it was the other sides red jungler area! If they didnt go into their enemys jungle right at the start of the game, how could they blow up the entire field! The audience had gods perspective and could see things very clearlyCC They went, they went, the shadow thief and the immortal thief charged straight into RRs red jungle zone together. Its really true that you see more the longer you live. Having a shadow thief and an immortal thief in the same team can even be seen in a professional competition setting. Seriously, is the shadow thief now able to play in the top lane? Nobodys used it before. Thats because Closes shadow thief is too ingrained in everyones cognition! Yes Closes shadow thief was basically tied with the jungler position. Everyone who saw the shadow thief would think of playing jungler. It wasnt just the audience; even countless players had this idea fixed in their minds. However, the Close whod taken the shadow thief and shown them miracles was taking the shadow thief to play in the top lane! RR also started with the red buff. Mo Hui took his support with him and cleared out the three stone men. This positioning, theyre about to step into their field of vision. Moonlit and Ning Zhehan are exchanging health in the mid-lane. The spirit mage is clearing soldiers slowly, and Ning Zhehans light mage can delay him! A fight at level one, FTWs top-jungler against RRs jungler-support! The commentators were very reserved, but the audience was already in high spirits. Aahhhh, great demon kings shadow thief! Its too handsome, I cant do it, I have 80,000 filters for Closes shadow thief. To be honest, I feel that Captain Mo has gone too far The kind where Moon-moon wont be able to save him even if he followed. The immortal thief is moving! Under normal circumstances, RRs support would follow Money. After they cleared the soldier line, they would start to go to the top and bottom lanes to start ganking. However, todays RR had arranged for their support to follow Money in order to defend against the two thieves entering their jungle at the start of the game. RRs support was very clever, and he had put vision in the right place with his keen perception. Unfortunately, hed underestimated the two power of the two thieves. Wei Xiao had leveled up his first skill, a movement skill. The first section was for movement, the second one took him straight into their face, and the third one reinforced a set of ordinary attacks for an explosive amount of damage. And then there was Closes shadow thief. He used his passive to sneak into the grass, and when RRs support went to defend against the immortal thief, his skill landed right on Money. Money: Laozi is going to open the door and throw money away! Moonlit: I wont be sending you off. Money gave himself extra sound effects, Ah er plop thump Besieged by the two thieves, Money successfully contributed the super valuable first blood. RRs support player was also very cruel, and he was merciless in selling off his own captain. Seeing that Money had no way to turn the tables, hed run away swiftly, arriving at the mid-lane in the blink of an eye. Wei Xiao sensed it, and reminded Ning Zhehan, Be careful, Moonlits going to go for you. Captain Mo had died, and Moonlit definitely wouldnt be reconciled. Their support player had obviously arrived at the mid-lane in order to help Moonlit control Ning Zhehan. Ning Zhehan: Got it! Lu Feng and Wei Xiao quickly divided up RRs jungle zone between them. Wei Xiao said, Captain, Im going to the lower field area. Lu Feng: Mm. As Wei Xiao had expected, Moonlit had taken his support to give Ning Zhehan a wave of pressure. But Little Ning reacted quickly enough, handing over his flash just in time and managing to survive with a sliver of health. FTW had taken a huge advantage at the start of this game! Theyd taken First Blood, snatched up half of the other sides jungle, and their farm was now 1000 gold ahead! RRs team chat. Money tsked, So fierce. Its no wonder that Old Fu said that the current FTW is like a group of mad dogs. Moonlit: Then well let them see whos crazier. Money was amused, You want to screw Close? Moonlit asked back, Who doesnt want to screw Close? The author has something to say: Wei Xiao: ??? [flipping the table in anger] Do you all think Im dead?! Chapter 107: Wait For Me Money: Damn, thats true. RRs support players nickname was Brother Dog. It wasnt really because his character was very much like a dog, even though that was kind of the case. The main reason was that his ID was Dog. If they didnt call him Brother Dog, then how could they pay respects to his doggy heart. Brother Dog wanted to act like a hero, Charge! Our goal today is to screw over the great demon king! RRs top-laner was crying so much it was like he was made out of tears, Then you guys should come quickly, Im about to get screwed to death As a self-reliant top-laner, life was too hard. Things were fine before; why did Close have to stop playing jungler? Why did he have to come up to the top lane? And he even took the motherf*cking shadow thief. As everyone knew, death knights had the advantage over shadow thieves. But now why was he so scared that he was hiding under the tower and trembling?! RRs top-laners heart was bitter. I, this death knight, dont care about my dignity anymore! The viewers had also noticed the trend behind RRs actions. Theyre going to go mess with the great demon king. They should screw him, they have to screw him. If they dont take advantage of the time when the shadow thief hasnt reached level six to suppress him, who will dare to go up to the top lane in the later stages? Why is it that my shadow thief just dies when it sees a death knight? Thats why youre not the great demon king. The commentators were also very optimistic about RRs current actions. Quiet has to go and clear out his jungle. Otherwise, hell be wasting farm. This is a fantastic opportunity. RRs mid-laner and support can charge up to the top lane, and in a three against one situation, even Close will have to be pushed back beneath his tower. Based on Closes current positioning, is it that his teammates didnt give him any signals? Ning Zhehan had sent over a signal. Hed carefully probed the area, and after discovering that there was nobody in the middle lane, hed immediately reminded them, Captain, theres nobody in the mid-lane! Brother Cai had checked out the bottom lane and immediately replied, Theres nobody in the bottom lane. Then where had Moonlit gone? It could only be the top lane! Wei Xiao was killing small jungle creeps, and he was an entire map away from the top lane. It was impossible for him to go up and provide support. Whats more, he shouldnt go up even if he could, because there were still many jungle creeps to kill, and if they werent all cleared, they wouldnt refresh. Wasting this round of farm would be a very serious mistake. Ning Zhehan: Ill go to the top lane! Lu Feng: Stay in the middle lane and push forward. Ning Zhehan was stunned. Wei Xiao also added, Theres three of them up there. Lu Feng said three words to him. Wei Xiao was stunned for a second, then swore, F*ck! Close was really worthy of being Close. Closes shadow thief really went up against heaven and earth! Everything took place in just an instant. Moonlit and Brother Dog made their way to the top lane and crouched behind the shadow thief. Even though he clearly knew that theyd arrived, Close didnt retreat. Instead, he continued to pressure the death knights health. The death knight was crying really loudly, Come on, come on, I cant hold on, Im going to die, I Moonlit ignored the sound of chatter in his ears, staring unblinkingly at the shadow thief in the canyon. A level five shadow thief didnt have its ultimate move and couldnt brush out light arcs. As long as he went forward a little bit, just a little bit, he could Go! Moonlit found the right time. There was no cooldown time for the shadow thiefs first skill that Close had on hand, and it could be used constantly. However, the shadow thief had a limited amount of mana. If they dragged it on like this, he wouldnt be able to use it that many times! The live stream camera was focused on the canyons top lane. FTWs shadow thief had just been suppressing the death knight when RRs spirit mage and holy priest suddenly revealed themselves. Everyone in the audience held their breath. Oh, my god, theyre going to surround the great demon king and beat him up, how exciting! Screw him, screw him, screw him, I want to see the great demon king topple to the ground! Whats FTWs mid-laner doing? Why isnt he going to provide support?! Its bad enough that he didnt give a signal, hes not even going to help out when they start fighting? Theres no point in going, right? Close is definitely going to die. If Ning Zhehan goes, hell just be sending them another kill. But he could at least clear out the soldiers from a distance and protect the top lane tower. How should I say it FTW seems a little overconfident? The commentator was still sharper than the audience. He said directly, Cut to the perspective of the bottom jungle zone. The camera gave everyone a panoramic view, and everyones goosebumps popped out again. Quiet is soloing the small dragon! The ancient creature in the lower jungle zone was a cute little green dragon. The green dragon was the ancient creatures early state. It had no horns on its head and only dealt a low amount of damage. Taking it down alone was very easy. But After this small dragon was killed, the benefits would go to the whole team! In other words, once Wei Xiao killed the small green dragon, Lu Feng, who was in the top lane, would also gain an increase in experience and money. After the commentator assessed the situation, he provided the audience with an answer, Little Green gives enough experience for the shadow thief to reach level six, and the money he obtains will be just enough for a level two iron sword. As soon as these words were spoken out, the audience who were watching from gods perspective understood. Shit! A level six shadow thief will be able to stack light arcs. The great demon king wants to take down three people on his own, so he told Ning Zhehan not to come support him? Can he do it, can he do it If its nine light arcs, then therell be no problem with dealing damage! Based on RRs current situation, it looked like it was three against one, but in fact, the death knight only had a bit of health left and couldnt hold up at all. Moonlit and the holy priest were in full health, but these two talents had a very low initial health maximum, and the holy priest who didnt yet have its ultimate move only had mediocre healing. The great demon king still had the purification skill on hand. As long as he could reach level six, he could definitely brush out his light arcs under a state where he couldnt be controlled System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed an ancient creature. As soon as the announcement rang out, RRs entire team felt cold. Money: Badass. Moonlit: Brother Dog: F*ck, is there enough time if I start running now? Like hell was there enough time. As soon as Little Green fell down, FTWs entire team soared up by one level. The shadow thief that had originally been level five made it precisely to level six. What was more deadly was that Little Green had given Lu Feng gold. A little less wouldnt have been enough, and a little more wouldve been useless, but it was just enough to let him build a core equipment piece. Their brains reacted, but their bodies couldnt move. The great demon king had obviously been planning this for a long time. He started up a series of moves, and just at the moment when his mana reached the bottom, the sky filled up with light arcs that lit up half the canyon. The little brother in charge of the broadcast was very skilled. He locked the camera on the shadow thief, showing the close-up plus 3D imaging and showing the gorgeous crimson cape that covered the whole lens. The commentators spoke incredibly quickly, analyzing the entire situation almost instantaneously. There was no doubt that the death knight would fall first. With one less person to share the damage, Moonlits health plummeted. Brother Dogs hands moved quickly, and he poured all of his heals into Moonlits body like crazy. Unfortunately, it was useless This damage was too high. Although there was still a gap between the current light arcs and the damage that could be dealt out in the later stages, it was already enough to abuse the squishy spirit mage and the beautiful sister holy priest. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Close killed RR.Xing. FTW.Close killed RR.Moon. FTW.Close killed RR.Dog. FTW.Close triple kill! The light arcs faded and the shadow thiefs scarlet cloak fluttered down, leaving only the canyon that was as silent as death. 1v3, triple kill! The entire scene blew up. Close is amazing! The shadow thief is so cool! Shit, Laozis going to go back and practice the shadow thief. Damn it, its so handsome that my heart cant stand it. Hello, hello? Game planning? Theres a daddy here, hurry and nerf him down! Wei Xiao didnt care about propriety at all as he blew out rainbow farts over the headset, Damn, its too handsome! Ning Zhehan was also very excited, Explosively strong! Wei Xiao: Captain, captain! As he cooperated with Yue Wenle and Bai Cai to pressure RRs bottom lane, he asked, Teach me, teach me, what do I have to do to brush out nine light arcs? Lu Feng: Brush them with your eyes closed. Wei Xiao: Everyone in FTW roared with laughter. Brother Cai almost sprained his foot: Sorry to disturb everyone, but their FTWs inheritance wasnt the shadow thief, it was the ability to act badass! FTWs momentum in this game was unstoppable. They crushed their opponents all the way from start to finish. After RR stumbled in that 3v1, they were never able to stand back up again. Moonlit managed to find good opportunities a few times and killed Little Ning twice, but it was useless as they simply had no way of holding down FTWs double thieves. As Wei Xiao had said, he focused on the top lane in this game and beat up RRs top-laner Xing Kai until he wanted to shut himself up. Xing Kai: Captain, theyre targeting me! Money: Thats right. Xing Kai: ??? Money comforted him, In any case, youre not worth any money anymore. Theres no difference between dying once or dying ten times. The poor death knight cried like a child. At first, the scrolling comments were still flaming RR, saying that RR were noobs and that they didnt know how theyd won against EVE. Was it all based on luck? Moonlit wasnt that good, and was RRs death knight the reincarnation of a vegetable melon? Other than money, Money didnt have anything else, right Later on, everyone stopped flaming. Because anyone who wasnt blind could understand. It wasnt that RR was weak, it was that FTW was too strong. It wasnt that Moonlit wasnt excellent, but that the great demon king was too amazing. It wasnt that the death knight was a reincarnated vegetable melon, it was anyone would close themselves up if they were faced with this shadow thief! The game was originally intended as an entertainment game anyway. Towards the end, everyone just focused on enjoying the nine light arcs. I dont know why, but I feel like the great demon king is indulging his fans. Yingyingying, it turns out that Closes nine light arcs really are something he can do casually whenever he wants to. Language teacher, I was wrong. I have to go back and study hard, because other than ahhhhh, I have no other words in my vocabulary. Finally, the two sides had a team fight. FTW annihilated everyone in RR and stormed straight to the crystal. The word Victory popped up on the screen. Wei Xiao turned his head to look at Lu Feng: Captain Lu Feng also looked at him, his thin lips movingCCI dont like the jungler position, but I like you. Wei Xiao: ! He understood!!! Lu Feng was once again the emotionless great demon king when he faced the camera. It was as though it had been someone else whod said those words. Even if Wei Xiaos boldness was enough to cover the sky, he still didnt dare to act up at this time. Of course, no matter how much he suppressed it, he still couldnt keep the corners of his lips from curving up in a smile. Both sides stood up, heading over to shake hands and exchange bows. Moonlits eyes were staring at Close, and his insistence that he refused to accept defeat was practically written on his face. Wei Xiao blocked his gaze. Moonlit looked at him. Wei Xiao shook his hand, Itll be my turn next time. Moonlit held tight to his hand, Next time, itll be me. Wei Xiao competed with him over hand strength, Dream on. Moonlit refused to accept defeat, Wake up. From beside them, Money laughed loudly, then led away his own primary school chick, Alright, alright, the next time will be during a formal game. Wei Xiao went back to his captains side, but he couldnt hold hands with him. At the end of the opening match, FTW had launched out the most resounding rocket of the new season. The entire network was filled with FTW, they were all in high spirits, and everyone was looking forward to seeing FTW make its way back to the peak this season. The hot searches went up one by one. FTW, Close, great demon king, top lane shadow thief. Each and every one of them involved Lu Feng, and they were all related to him. The fans whod been suppressed for a long time finally saw the onset of dawn this year. The real great demon king would come out and crack down on the global games! There were no more games after that. When everyone in FTW was back in the team van, Xiang Liu spoke up, Everyone should uninstall Weibo temporarily. These words were very obscure, but everyone understood. The official blog had sent out an announcement. Just when all the fans were boiling with excitement, FTWs statement on their official blog was like adding water to hot oil, almost blowing up half the Glory circle. FTW Club: Due to the aggravation of a shoulder injury, team member @FTW.Close will be leaving for North America for treatment. Thank you for everyones attention and support. Please look forward to the kings return two months later. It was a very simple statement, but it managed to confuse everyone. There was no doubt that the countless fans who saw this piece of news had still been filled with enthusiasm one second prior, but in the next second, theyd all burst into tears. Wei Xiao didnt uninstall Weibo. He saw the crazy comments that followed, read the countless queries and cries. Close had a shoulder injury. Close was leaving the team for treatment. The man whod broken open the Glory of the China competition zone with his nine light arcs that night had been fighting while injured. Wei Xiao felt his nose grow sour as he continued looking. It wasnt just him. Bai Cai, Ning Zhehan, Yue Wenle, all of them were red-eyed. The most excellent Close, the most powerful Close, the Close whod guarded FTW with his own strength had to leave the field at such an important moment, at such a critical time. The fans cried. They cried, too. All the people who loved Close had no way to control their tears. Lu Feng forwarded the announcement and left three wordsCC Wait for me. xiin: well. LF is leaving, but dont worry, hell show up often. have you tried long-distance dog food before? because you will now! (another good example of long distance dog food is RMLE~ it might be a bit angsty for those of you who follow my translations for fluff, but the MC and ML had the cutest long distance phone calls) Chapter 108: Glorys Mic Explosion King Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night. First, there was the hot-blooded opening game, and then there was FTWs deep-water torpedo, setting off wave after wave and leaving the China Glory circle dumbfounded. At first, the fans burst out in tears, and then the anti-fans poked their heads up and began to stir up the muddy waters like crazy. If there were enough Close fans to make a circle around the earth, then there were enough anti-fans to make one and a half circles around the earth. As a man whod stirred up the bloody rain in the Glory circles, those who loved him loved him all the way down to their soul, and those who hated him hated him all the way down to their bones. No matter how hard Xiang Liu worked to control the comments, he couldnt hold back the haters who crowded together to apply pressure. Close is only 21. Howd he get a shoulder injury so serious that he has to leave the team for treatment? If you cant afford to lose, then just say it directly. Why put on such a miserable act? Wake up, other than acting miserable, what else can FTW do? Theyve done this for three years. Theyre probably unable to keep going on this year or something. Laozi even thought that FTW was going to rise up this year. Like hell. Isnt this just abandoning ship and running away? These were already considered good. There were more malicious ones later onCC Ive felt that things were weird ever since Quiet joined the team. If theres nothing going on, why change junglers? Lu Feng mustve seen that FTW cant continue on and was planning to find someone to take over. FTW was already setting this up when they announced that Close would be switching to the top lane. Hed played jungler for four years, then said that hes not suited to play jungler. Who would believe that? He just wanted to find a way to step back, waiting for an opportunity to walk away. Thats great. The contracts with their partners were signed earlier in the year, and theyve already made enough money. Theres no need to think about it. Two months later, FTW will send out a new statementCCOh hey, the treatment didnt work, Closes shoulder cant recover, and he has to retire. Conspiracy theories, paranoia, and keyboard warriors emerged in an endless stream. The fans whod originally already been confused became even more of a mess when faced with these comments. From the crying at the start to the questioning that followed, and then to the state where they were on the verge of collapse; even if FTWs PR department was powerful, they were a bit unable to hold back the tide. Until the professional players started forwarding Weibo posts. First came the retired veterans, and then the popular newcomers, and then the new generation of immature future stars. Everyone forwarded the same content. It was a simple but direct sentenceCC Waiting for your light arcs to fill up the sky. In the face of doubt, chaos, and the anti-fans who were fishing in troubled waters, strength was the strongest umbrella. Well wait for your return. Wait for you to light up the canyon with nine light arcs. A man who could casually brush out nine light arcs, a man who was still at the peak of the competitive arena, a man whod just crushed his opponents in a 1v3 in the canyon. How could you say he was weak? What gave you the right to suspect him? Why would you think that he wanted to retreat? Why would you vilify him and accuse him of wanting to give up the game! How could such a powerful player, a player who was still indomitable when he was in poor physical condition, stop when he was so close to that ultimate glory? Countless professional players stepped up and stabilized the fans hearts with their respect for Close that came from the bottom of their hearts. Close wasnt going to retire. Close wasnt running away. Close was using a short departure to bring back even more brilliant and spectacular glory! At this time, the Glory competition committee also released the team chat recordings from the opening game. The editor of Glorys Mic Explosion King was also a loyal fan of Close. He cried as he edited, and worked overtime to release the voice clips. Ill use the shadow thief. Use the shadow thief for the top lane? Give it a try. Is it that you dont believe in yourself, or that you dont believe in your captain. The team chat voice clips came out, and countless people poured in to listen. The fans came to find comfort, and the anti-fans came to see the excitement. Everyone was very curious; they wanted to know what the mentality of the team members whod long known that Close would be leaving the team would be like. Were they depressed? Were they downcast? Were they charged with energy and momentum, just wanting to win the game with all their strength? Or were they dejected? Confused? Helpless? And thenCC Its okay, this section can be broadcast. I, Quiet, can sit right here and brush out nine light arcs with my eyes closed, but Ill never admit that I brushed them out with my eyes open. So it turns out you dont like me, Im a jungler, so you actually dont like me. Captain, captain, give it to me! In the video, the shadow thief was helping the immortal thief beat up the blue buff monster. Captain, I want it The immortal thief in the canyon was eating the shadow thiefs medicine pack. Captain, you dont love me anymore, you only have Moon-moon in your eyes! Oh, this was when the immortal thief couldnt get the kill for Moonlit. The fans who had tears welled up in their eyes and had used up a few packages of tissues with their crying, ??? The gossip watching passersby whod pre-cut their melons and prepared their melon seeds, ??? The anti-fans whod loaded up their bullets, set up their cannons, arrayed themselves majestically and were ready to start flaming, ??? What the hell was going on here!!! Was FTW depressed and downcast? All they could hear was them going crazy, acting reckless, and going wild! Were the players dispirited, confused, and helpless? All they could hear was hahahahahahahahahahaha! Oh, theyd guessed one thing rightCCFTW did want to win this game. But other than this point, theyd overthought everything else! By the time RRs voice chat was released, the fans tearful emotions had completely melted into smiles. Money: You want to screw Close? Moonlit: Who doesnt want to screw Close? As soon as these two sentences came out, the comments in Glorys Mic Explosion King had already been taken over by 6666, hahahaha, etc. The atmosphere in FTWs team chat was the best heart tonic. Wei Xiaos ability to drive the atmosphere spread through the entire internet, making many fans laugh and giving the crowd of anti-fans no way to continue. If FTW was depressed, they would stomp on them further. But FTWs mentality was excellent, so they stopped. It sounded ironic, but the reality was also that ironic. It was the restless person whose ID was Quiet whod quietly brought the events of that night to a climax. FTW.Quiet: @FTW.Close, well be waiting for your return with first place in our group. One stone stirred up a thousand waves. The fans whod quieted down slightly were instantly stirred up again. Is Quiet serious?! Can our FTW take first place in their group in the regular season?! Are they so confident even without Close? Wei Xiao didnt reply to any of themCC There was no use in saying anything, they just had to do it. He was a pragmatic person. The captain had already made up his mind to go abroad and treat his shoulder. How could he not perform well? Getting number one in the regular season would be the best gift to welcome Close back with! When they returned to the base, FTW didnt arrange any organized training. Everyone played ranked games as they liked, or rested if they wanted to rest. Chen Feng didnt manage them much. Wei Xiao was now the most careful person, Captain, its time to sleep! Lu Feng: Its not that serious. Wei Xiao himself got up first, When youre better, I definitely wont let you go to sleep so early. Lu Feng looked at him, Hm? Wei Xiaos heart trembled. The captain obviously hadnt said anything, and his gaze was also calm and indifferent, but Wei Xiao could hear something else from this extremely subtle tone. For example, when he was messing around last night and didnt sleep, the tone the captain had used after hed coaxed him to sleep. F*ck! Wei Xiao blushed. Brother Cai was clueless, but he still interjected, Old Wei, do you know what you look like right now? Wei Xiao, whose back was to Bai Cai, looked like a little spicy crayfish. Brother Cai: You look like the captains caring little babysitter! Wei Xiao: Lu Feng had a smile in his eyes. He stood up and said, Lets go. Brother Cai glanced at Wei Xiao as he was waiting for his next game, and then What the hell? What, what the hell?! Wei Xiao could blush? Wasnt it just a babysitter? His expression didnt even change, nor did his heart jump when he had called him a little wife! What was there to be shy about?! Brother Cai firmly believed that hed gone blind. Wei Xiao didnt understand what Bai Cai was saying at all. When he got out of the training room, he hooked his hand into Lu Fengs. Lu Feng held his hand back. Wei Xiao lowered his voice, What if were seen? Lu Feng: Its okay. Wei Xiaos courage fattened up again, and he leaned in close to him, Youre leaving tomorrow. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao: Tonight Lu Fengs throat convulsed, Little Xiao. Dont. Wei Xiao couldnt bear to hear his voice like this, It makes my legs soft. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao deliberately repeated it, When you call me like this, it makes my legs go soft. Lu Feng couldnt stand it. He dragged him to the back stairs and kissed him against the wall. After waiting for an entire day, their lips finally collided together. Wei Xiao gasped loudly, Lets take a bath together. Lu Feng kissed his earlobe. Wei Xiaos entire body quivered, I-I cant wait anymore. The time it took for this bath was a little long. By the time they came out, Wei Xiao was leaning against Lu Feng, and if it werent for Lu Fengs shoulder injury, he wouldve asked him to carry him. Lu Feng liked him like this. Delicate kisses landed lightly from time to time. After being satisfied, Wei Xiao hid in the quilt and kissed him. Bit by bit, little light touches. It was playing, but there was also a bit of an attempt to comfort his own heart and unwillingness to part. Two months really wasnt a long time. Theyd missed out on each other for two years. Two months now was nothing in comparison. Whats more, Lu Feng was going for treatment. It was a good thing, a positive thing, and it mustnt be delayed. However, no matter how much he understood these things, his heart was still reluctant. He wanted to see him every day, wanted to be able to kiss him every day, wanted to hold him every night. Even being heart to heart wasnt close enough. How could he stand being thousands of miles apart? Wei Xiao didnt send Lu Feng off. Hed insisted on going, but Lu Feng had refused. Chen Feng dragged him away and asked, Are you not going to play in the training match? Wei Xiao looked pitifully at the captain, and Lu Feng almost kissed him on the spot. Ill call you when Im settled in. Lu Feng spoke to him quietly. Wei Xiao corrected him, Call me when you land. Lu Feng: Okay. Wei Xiao had a stomach full of words he wanted to say, but unfortunately, he could only stare at him like this while they were in public. Lu Feng shifted his gaze again, Go back inside. Wei Xiao called him again, Captain! Lu Feng turned to look at him. Wei Xiao ultimately wasnt able to hold back, Ill miss you Ill miss you so, so much. Lu Feng: Xiang Liu, who knew something about their relationship, started sweating. He was worried that the internet that had finally calmed down would blow up again. And it would be because of this kind of scandal. Brother Liu: Well-well all miss Captain Lu! Chen Feng picked up the conversation, Enough, when your captain comes back, he can even accompany you to solo day and night. Lu Feng answered, Mm. It was unknown if this was an answer to Chen Feng, or Wei Xiao. After sending away Lu Feng, Wei Xiaos heart felt empty. Their training match that evening was very quiet. Chen Feng asked him, Do you want to take the shadow thief? Wei Xiao: Oh. Brother Cai glanced at him, Can you be a little more promising, just based on your current appearance, how will we get first place in the group! Then, during their training match with RR, Wei Xiao used the shadow thief and brushed out nine light arcs. Brother Cai: Did the face slapping have to happen so quickly?! RR base. Brother Dog yelled, Ban the shadow thief, in the future, well send the shadow thief up to the ban position anytime we encounter FTW! It was too toxic, he was going to be f*cking traumatized! After the training match, Bai Cai poked Wei Xiao, Not bad, you can brush out light arcs as you like. Wei Xiao turned his head blankly, Ah? Bai Cais heart thumped brieflyCCdamn it, it cant be that this fellows nine light arcs can really only be brushed out with his eyes closed, right?! After his spirit spent 12 hours outside of his body, a transpacific phone call activated Wei Xiao again. Lu Fengs voice was a little hoarse, Awake? Wei Xiao was instantly filled with energy, Youve landed? Lu Feng: Mm. Captain, Wei Xiao blurted out the words in his heart, I miss you. Lu Feng: Mm, me too. Wei Xiao still wanted to say something else, but he heard Lu Feng continue, I wish I could fly back to see you now. Wei Xiao: ! F*ck, the captain was too wicked! Ding Ding Ding Ding... Wei Xiao hadnt slept all night and was still in the training room. His computer hadnt been turned off, and the sound was from a private chat channel in the game. It hadnt been easy for him to wait for Lu Fengs call, so he definitely wasnt going to pay attention to anyone else. But Lu Feng heard it, You havent slept all night. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng: Go sleep. Wei Xiao: No way! He glanced at the computer out of the corner of his eyes and saw the messages. Yuan not a person Ze: Your captain came to North America? F*ck, he has a shoulder injury? Hes two years younger than Laozi, he actually overworked his shoulder? Little Close is no good. Thats not it, if hes coming to North America, why didnt he contact me? Give me his phone and flight number. Ill go pick cough, Ill go laugh at him! apricot: oo Yuan Ze the tsundere~ how cute haha xiin: ahhh ~ i feel like the Glory Mic Explosion King too, crying while translating the chapter @[email protected] Chapter 109: Wei Xiao: Close is very good. On the other end of the network cable, Yuan Ze looked at the last sentence hed sent out, What kind of garbage speech to text recognition is this! Hed used the games own voice to text private message sending function. When hed spoken, hed only thought that it would save him trouble, and afterwards, hed used a professional players superfast hand speed and instantly sent it out. And then hed slipped up. Wei Xiao hadnt been happy seeing Marshals ID. When he saw him say that Close was no good, he was even more angry. Until the last sentenceCC The obedient voice to text had exposed Yuan Zes slip very clearly. Now, this was a great turn of events since private chat messages in the game couldnt be withdrawn! Lu Feng could hear Wei Xiaos laughter, Whats the matter? Wei Xiao cleared his throat and read it out, imitating Scum Man Yuans voice, particularly when it came to the last sentence, Give me his phone and flight number. Ill go pick cough, Ill go laugh at him! There was special emphasis placed on the last sentence, that misspoken word. Lu Fengs low laughter came from the other end of the phone. Wei Xiaos ears trembled, Is someone picking you up? As it happened, the city where Lu Feng was staying was the city where L&P was located. Lu Feng replied, Yes. Wei Xiao was relieved, Then, should I give Yuan Ze your phone number? Lu Feng: No need. Wei Xiao was quite surprised, Youre in the same city, but youre not going to meet up? The more he understood Lu Feng, the more Wei Xiao was certain that he felt none of the rumored prejudice against the Team of Gods. It could even be said that Lu Feng attached great importance to his former teammates, even Dog C not human C Yuan. Lu Feng said, I have his contact information. Wei Xiao tsked, Old Dog Yuan really isnt anything good. Look, theyd been separated for three years, but Lu Feng still had Yuan Zes phone number, while Yuan Ze didnt even have Closes. Lu Feng didnt explain much. He coaxed him, Go sleep. Wei Xiaos tense nerves loosened, and he also started to feel tired, Call me when you settle in. Lu Feng: Ill send you a WeChat message. If Wei Xiao was sleeping, a call would wake him up. Wei Xiao insisted, A voice message. He wanted to hear his voice. How could Lu Feng not indulge him? Mm. The two of them hung up the phone, and Wei Xiao sent a message back to Yuan Ze, You dont need to pick him up, someones already picking him up. Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao: Not giving you his phone number, stop trying to hook up with my captain. Yuan Ze: ??? Wei Xiao added the most fatal blow at the end, Close is very good, goodbye Captain Yuan. Yuan Ze: F*ck! As soon as Wei Xiao went back, Soybean jumped straight into his arms. Brother Soy didnt know that his handsome father had gone away. He felt quite puzzled when he smelled that Wei Xiao didnt have his handsome fathers scent on him, Ao? Wei Xiao thought that it wanted to go downstairs to play. He rubbed its doggy head and said, Your father isnt at home, theres nobody here to go crazy with you. The captain had only left for one day, and he missed himCC He wanted him to come back and walk the dog! It was 6AM in China, making it 6PM in America. Lu Feng spoke to the doctor about the timing as he waited for his luggage. Hed just arrived and needed to settle in. Hed go to the hospital the day after tomorrow to discuss the treatment procedures. With this dealt with, Lu Feng dialed a phone number from the bottom of his address book. Yuan Ze had just been angered by Little Lunatic Wei, and when he heard his cell phone ring, he picked it up without looking at it. The other side wasnt speaking in English. Instead, it was a bass voice that was both familiar and strange, Hello. Yuan Ze: ! Lu Feng: Are you free? Yuan Ze burst out cursing, then asked him, You still have my phone number He thought that Lu Feng wouldve blocked him a long time ago! Lu Feng: I heard you want to pick me up? Ill be out of the gate in around 40 minutes. This cocky tone of voice brought Old Dog Yuans thoughts back to three years ago. Yuan Ze paused briefly, F*ck! He picked up the car key on his desk and headed for the airport. Yuan Ze had also been a laborer in the old FTW. Only two people had a drivers license on the team. One was Yuan Ze, and the other was Yan Jiang. Captain Yan: You can ask me to drive as long as youre not afraid of death. Everyone in the Team of Gods: Who wouldnt be f*cking afraid of death?! So, Yuan Ze slowly became an experienced driver. When Kim Sung-hyun came back from South Korea, hed gone to pick him up. When Xie He came back from his hometown, hed gone to pick him up. Only Close was different, because he never went home. Yuan Ze had once asked him, Do you want big brother to pick you up? Close had simply glanced at him. Yuan Ze: Dont ask, if you ask, its simply asking to be snubbed! The next day, Yuan Ze had received a call from Close, Im at K11. Yuan Ze: ??? Close: I heard you wanted to pick me up. Yuan Ze: If it hadnt been that Close had also given him a lighter that cost five digits, he definitely wouldnt have picked him up! After picking up Lu Feng, Yuan Ze finally realized something, Didnt Quiet say that someone was picking you up? Lu Feng had been flying for over 10 hours. Even if he could lay down and sleep in the first class cabin, he was still very tired. He glanced at him sidelong, Arent you someone? Yuan Ze: Both of them were f*cking shits! The first thing Wei Xiao did when he opened his eyes was grope for his cell phone. There was a voice message in his Wechat. Wei Xiao clicked it open and heard Lu Fengs voice, Dont worry, Ive settled in. One in the afternoon was one oclock in the morning over there. Wei Xiao managed to resist calling him and sent him a Wechat message, I dreamed of you. Jet lag wasnt that easy to reverse. Lu Feng sent over a video call. Wei Xiao connected instantly. The two of them looked at each other across the small screen, and they missed each other even more. Wei Xiao looked at him pitifully, Captain~ Lu Feng also looked at him, What was I doing in your dreams? Wei Xiaos cheeks were red. He was too embarrassed to say it, yet said it anyway, I dreamed that you kissed me. The color of Lu Fengs dark eyes deepened. Wei Xiao started to tremble from his look, Ahhhh, Captain, dont seduce me! When he looked at him like this, not only did he miss him, certain other places also started to miss him! Lu Feng laughed quietly, Who exactly is seducing who? Wei Xiao: F*ck, he really wanted to fly to M Country! Wei Xiao couldnt win when he flirted against his captain and got out of bed as he said, Theres a competition in the afternoon. Im getting up. Lu Feng knew his schedule, Nervous? Wei Xiao set the cell phone to one side and spoke while changing clothes, Whats there to be nervous about? From Lu Fengs point of view, he could just manage to see his thin waist. After having sampled it before, one glance was enough to make him miss it. Wei Xiao put on his team uniform, then looked sideways at the camera, Captain? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao was amused, Fascinated with watching me? Hed done it deliberately. It couldnt always be the captain teasing him; he had to fight back! Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiaos heart leapt. Lu Feng: Im fascinated. Wei Xiao: Shit, to hell with fighting back. His heart started beating like a drum with just a single word from the captain! Later, Brother Cai had come to knock on the door, scaring Wei Xiao into quickly closing the video call. There was also the sound of Soybean making noise outside. Wei Xiao opened the door for them, and Soybean pounced into his arms. Bai Cai: Laozi walked you for an entire morning, but you forget your uncle as soon as you see your daddy. Soybean really wasnt his dog! Wei Xiao stroked Soybean, Its still your Uncle Vegetable who cares about you, accompanying you to go crazy so early in the morning. Soybean: Aoooooo! After messing around for such a long time, why do you still not smell like the handsome daddy? After Wei Xiao said so, Brother Cais heart felt guilty, I was told to do it. Wei Xiao looked at him, ? Bai Cai told him the truth honestly, Before the captain left, he told me that I was responsible for walking Soybean every day. Wei Xiaos heart felt sweet, but he immediately grew puzzled, Youre so damned lazy, why would you be so obedient? Brother Cai cleared his throat, 1000 to walk him each time, and two months adds up to Who cared about the competition? He could get rich walking the dog! Wei Xiao: Wei Xiaoxiao instantly felt that Soybean wasnt fun anymore. This thing was too expensive, he might as well stew it! Today was FTWs first official game. The regular season began at 3PM every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. It was BO3, and there were three games a day. There were no games on Monday and Tuesday, which gave the teams time to do their replays and reviews. At the start, they would be circulating within their group, and it was held in S City, FTWs home base. The other group would be cycling in B City, which was FTWs away court. Home games and away games were quite different. Without mentioning anything else, there would be a difference in the players states. It took two hours to fly from S City to B City, and the journey was quite tiring. After they arrived, they would have to stay in a hotel, and no matter how comfortable the hotel was, it wasnt the same as living at their base. If they didnt sleep well, it would also affect their state. So, everyone all paid attention to the cycles within their group in order to snatch up points where they could. After all, it would be a pity to lose points when they had the home team advantage. Today, FTW was up against a third rate team. There were 14 teams in the China competition zone, but there was a mixed combination of good and bad teams. When the entire competition zone was in a slump, the level of the weak teams was far worse than what strong competition zones could imagine. For example, this LH team. Their name also started with L, but the gap between them and L&P could be said to be like the difference between heaven and hell. In last years regular season, LH had been one place short of getting relegated to the secondary leagues. There was really no suspense for FTW to go up against them for their first game. But Chen Feng was a little nervous. Tang Chen warmed up his wrists, Even if you dont believe in me, you should believe in those kids. Hed been playing in training matches with the rest of the team recently, and their results had been good. Chen Feng stared at him, You understand shit! Tang Chen: Yeah, yeah, I dont understand shit. Chen Feng: He couldnt understand the brain circuits of this piece of wood this lifetime! Xiang Liu interjected, It should be fine, LH played against RR yesterday and was beaten up miserably. LH really was miserable. Their luck was really terrible, and theyd played against RR in their first game, and it was the RR whod gotten hammered into seclusion during the opening game. As for the results, it could only be described as so horrible that one could barely stand to look at them. Moonlit had gotten beaten up directly by the shadow thief during the opening game, and then it had happened again during the training match. The anger and fury that had been suppressed for a day and a night all landed on LH. Such an unlucky team then went on to encounter FTW in the second round. In fact, these schedules had been made public before the opening game. At the time, LH had felt their vision grow dark as soon they saw the schedule. That day, everyone in their team had gone to worship Buddha on Weibo, begging for a change in their luck. Who couldve known that they would really get what they wantedCC FTWs official blog sent out an announcement, and their Weibo followed suit and gained popularity. How metaphysical! Theyd worshipped Buddha, and Close had actually gone off to North America! Sending out Weibo posts to gain some luck was really useful. It seemed as though theyd managed to suck FTWs luck dry. Was the law of conservation of character true? Anything that was related to Closes departure from the team could be discussed happily by the netizens for a very long time. While Chen Feng was worrying about FTW messing up, FTWs four little ones had a different attitude altogether. Wei Xiao pointed to his cell phone, Do you guys see this? Its this team! The Weibo he was pointing to was the one where LH was trying to suck in some luck. Ning Zhehan nodded, Yes, theyre the ones who cursed the captain. Its really a huge crime! Yue Wenle: Bai Cai: Wei Xiao looked at the two of them, What, could it be that theyre not guilty? Yue Wenle & Bai Cai: They are! Wei Xiao nodded, then concluded, The dead can be excused, but living criminals cant escape. Whats our goal? Ning Zhehan and Brother Cai became the little side characters that were supporting the lead role, Beat them up! Bandit Wei was very satisfied. The competition began at 3PM. Lu Feng, whod coaxed Little Xiao by saying goodnight was currently watching the live broadcast. His cell phone rang. Yuan Ze had sent him a message, Come out for a late night snack? L&P had just finished a training match. Yuan Ze was hungry enough to die, and when he thought about how Lu Feng definitely hadnt adjusted to the jet lag (even though it wasnt necessary, since there was no jet lag in e-sports), and definitely hadnt slept, he called him out to eat together. Lu Feng: No. Yuan Ze: Not hungry? Lu Feng: Busy. Yuan Ze: ??? What could you be busy with at three in the morning! Oh it was three oclock in the afternoon in China. Yuan Ze got it, FTW has a game? Lu Feng: Yes. Yuan Ze looked it up: LH? What kind of noob team was this, he hadnt even heard of them. Yuan Ze asked him again, FTW shouldnt be at the level where they cant even win against this kind of team, right? Lu Feng didnt reply. Yuan Ze thought about it and felt that he was being overly nervous. He comforted him kindly, Dont worry, its a steady win with Quiet there. Lu Feng: I know. Yuan Ze was puzzled, So what are you nervous about? Staring at it at three in the morning? A long time later, when Yuan Ze thought that Lu Feng wouldnt replyCC Close: I miss him, so Im watching. xiin C long distance dog food begins~ and Yuan Ze gets a whole face full of it! Chapter 110: Close had become Quiets number one supporter on the list. Yuan Zes hand shook, and his cell phone fell straight down towards the floor. Garys hand eye coordination was fast, and he caught it for him. The Old G who knew a little bit of Chinese glanced at it and saw some of the message, Is it Close? Did he really come to North America? Where is he? Hows his arm? Can he move it? Can he solo? Can he Yuan Ze snatched up the cell phone, Shut up! Gary was aggrieved, I really never thought that I was actually hammered into seclusion by an injured Close. Its hard to imagine how strong he would be when hes in his best state. Yuan Ze: In fact, Yuan Ze was also very curious about this. Close had been very strong when hed been in FTW, but hed still been a little immature. Especially when it came to cooperation, his performance was bad enough to get points deducted. After FTW broke up, Close was deeply caught in the quagmire and couldnt show his real strength. It was true that hed won consecutive singles championships, but a real god level player was never a lone wolf. Yuan Ze had been led astray by Gary and forgot to reply to Lu Feng. When he looked at the last message, he felt his teeth ache from gritting them tight as he typed, Who do you want to see? Is it FTW, or Q He held back and didnt finish typing. He always felt that his teeth would hurt even more after he was done. Lu Feng: Goodnight. Yuan Ze: Gary was still making a fuss, So? Is Close coming out? Should we go have Chinese food? How about hotpot? I love hotpot, do you think I can trade a hotpot meal for a round of solo Yuan Ze pulled a cigarette out of the box and stuffed it into his mouth. Old G was happy, Your method of quitting smoking is really quite unconventional. You dont smoke, then offer it to others instead. Yuan Ze wished he could kick him away, Go away! Gary ran off. The smell of smoke was like adding fuel to the fire for people who were trying to quit smoking, he got it. Yuan Ze stared at the message. He looked at it up and down, left and right, and the more he looked F*ck! He couldnt hide from it. In the context of this conversation, how come it looked problematic from any angle?! Yuan Ze gave Kim Sung-hyun an overseas phone call. Kim Sung-hyun glanced at his watch, Its three in the morning, and you havent slept yet? Yuan Ze came straight to the point, Theres big news! Kim Sung-hyun switched to Chinese, What. Yuan Ze avoided the people around him and took a deep breath, I suspect that Little Close is Kim Sung-hyun: Is what? Yuan Ze was having some trouble saying it out loud. Kim Sung-hyun asked him instead, Is Close over there? Yuan Ze: He just arrived yesterday. Kim Sung-hyun: Hows his shoulder? Yuan Ze: Cant see anything just by looking at it. Kim Sung-hyun was quite puzzled, Hes only 21, and he normally lives like an old man. How can it be so serious? This was also the thing that Yuan Ze couldnt understand. Lu Feng had become famous early, but he hadnt entered the industry very early. There were many others whod started competing at 16, 17 years old. Although Lu Feng was now 21, and it seemed normal to have some occupational diseases after already playing for four or five years, now was only when hed announced the problem and certainly not the time when the illness actually began. As professional players, they all understood. Strain was chronic. It took at least a year or two to progress from showing symptoms to requiring treatment. According to this pace, Lu Feng may have already had symptoms when he was 18 or 19, which was really too early. Fans only saw Closes injury, and only saw that he was going to North America for treatment, but they didnt think about how Lu Feng had endured it, and had never thought about how bad it had to be for him to leave his club to go to M Country for treatment. The hidden dangers left by his departure were immeasurable. If Closes shoulder injury wasnt very serious, he would never dare to take on such a risk. Kim Sung-hyun and Yuan Ze didnt say it clearly. But both of them had a suspicion in their hearts: was Closes shoulder injury really from strain? Burning out after only one or two years? It didnt seem possible no matter how they thought about it. Then, what was going on? What had happened to Close in the year that FTW disbanded? When he thought of these things, Yuan Zes heart felt very uncomfortable. Kim Sung-hyuns voice also grew distant, I have a game later, Im hanging up now. Yuan Ze: Mm. After hanging up the phone, Yuan Ze looked at his cell phone and spaced out for a while, then glanced at his chat interface. Yuan Ze: Hed forgotten all about it! Forget it, for something like sexual orientation, it didnt matter as long as it wasnt aimed at him. After closing his conversation with Yuan Ze, Lu Feng used a projector and leaned back in bed to watch the live broadcast. When the five people in FTW appeared, the camera started by sweeping over their top-laner before panning back, stopping for a longer time when it came to Wei Xiao. In the screen, the youth was wearing FTWs black team uniform, his zipper loosely done up to his chest and revealing the white shirt inside that was a little too large, exposing hints of his collarbones. Following the beautiful arc upwards was his slender neck, thin jaw, handsome facial features, and his black eyes that seemed filled with lights. When Wei Xiao wasnt smiling, his drooping eyelids made him seem a little cold, and his lips looked thin. When his sidelong glance landed on the camera, his arrogant little look elicited countless screams from the fans. Lu Feng could hear it. His dark eyes watched the screen without blinking. Wei Xiao was very good-looking. When he stood there on the brilliant stage, he became even more attractive. The game started without much nonsense. Under normal circumstances, this would be a game without any suspense. FTW against LH. It didnt seem like they could lose no matter what. However, due to Lu Fengs departure, everything was now in question. Could the FTW that didnt have the great demon king stand up on its own? Could the new jungler Quiet hold things up? Had this team that had lost its captain, also lost its soul? Regardless of whether they were fans, haters, or even passers-by, everyone was curious about this. This game was no longer a boring match where a strong team crushed a weak team, but a new start, a game to prove themselves, a game where the curtains were slowly being drawn up! This was exactly what Chen Feng was worried about. This was a game that they would basically win as long as Close was there. If FTW lost now How big of a blow would it be for the five starters in the team, the worried fans, and the countless people who supported them? And there were countless possibilities and opportunities in every game. The players states, the BP line-up, or even one careless move in the canyon could cause them to lose the entire game. There were no games where wins were guarantees, only endless surprises and possible accidents. This was what competition was. Chen Feng wasnt someone who was afraid of losing, but he was afraid this time. He was afraid that FTW would make a mistake, that FTW would lose, and he was afraid that if they didnt do well, the crowd would push them down even further. From the moment that Close left, FTW had stood on a tightrope wire that was strung across a cliff. Walking across it wasnt necessarily a smooth path; once they fell, there would be nothing but an abyss waiting for them. With such pressure, Chen Feng was very nervous. Tang Chen noticed it, but he didnt know how to inspire others. He scratched his head and didnt know what to say. Chen Feng tried hard not to let his emotions infect the players. After all, based on their current state, the four little ones were still doing okay. Wei Xiao glanced at him while adjusting his headset. Chen Feng: BP started. LH had the first ban, and they didnt hesitate to send the shadow thief to the ban position. It was too terrible. FTWs inherited shadow thief was poisonous, and LH still had a strong desire to survive. Wei Xiao: What are they afraid of? Laozi cant do nine light arcs anyway. Bai Cai: Would you die if you spoke a little less? Wei Xiao: I really cant, hey! This segment can be broadcast, and its better if they repeat it three times so that all the teams can hear it clearly. I, Quiet, cant do nine light arcs. Hurry up and save on that ban position! Brother Cai: I suspect that youre putting on an act. Lele: And we have the evidence to prove it. Little Ning: Cough. Wei Xiao: Sigh, things are bad this year. Nobody believes you when you tell the truth. Chen Feng: All of his worries were completely swept away by this brats antics! Wei Xiao moved his mouse lazily, Coach, I want to play the berserker thief. Chen Feng glanced at him, Hm? Wei Xiao smiled at the camera, Its time to let everyone know that my scythe is even deadlier than my nine light arcs. His easy tone rang directly through the headphones, bringing some strange magic with it. Arrogant, frivolous, and brazen. But once these words came from Quiets mouth, it all became something that went without saying. Chen Feng suddenly remembered the glance that Wei Xiao had shot him prior to the BP link. Damn it. He was being cared for by a little brat. A gust of dizzying warmth burst out in Chen Fengs heart, melting the nervousness and uneasiness. What was he afraid of? What was there to be afraid of? If he, as the coach, was scared, then what should the players do? He couldnt accompany them to battle through the canyon, and he couldnt fight side by side with them, but what he could do was fight for the best line-up for them, help them loosen any shackles and create a foundation for them to fly freely! He couldnt panic; he couldnt be afraid. They would be beyond redemption if they lost, but they would never lose! Chen Feng stared at the BP interface and calmly analyzed LHs intentions, Their mid-laners hero pool is a little shallow. If we ban the flower mage, itll be equal to having them lose a leg. How would they win with only one leg left? Even worshiping Buddha would be of no use! FTWs sides BP was very quick, and there was almost no hesitation. On LHs side, except for their speedy ban of the shadow thief, every decision after that came slowly. Professionals could tell a lot about the teams from BP. If they banned and selected talents quickly, it meant that they had a well thought out plan. If they were slow and cautious, it meant that their hearts were flustered, and they were uncertain. The camera switched to Chen Feng who was standing behind Wei Xiao, his eyes drooping as he stared at the computer screen. Lu Feng was too familiar with him and could see his mood change through some of his subtle expressions. From the tension to the beginning to the current calmness, he wondered what Wei Xiao had said. The corner of Lu Fengs lips curved slightly. Someone sent out a sentence on the scrolling commentsCCthe FTW without Close had no soul. How could they win? Lu Feng sat up straight and typed out a line on his tablet, Close isnt the soul, Quiet is. As soon as these words came out, countless people began to scold and curse. In particular, Closes battle fans all exploded on the spot, wishing that they could scold this string of numbers (his ID) into quitting the live broadcast studio. Lu Feng didnt say anything else. He simply sent out 888 hearts for Quiet. One heart was ten yuan. 888 The scrolling comments grew quiet, and a group of people called out, 6666, this big boss is really amazing! Lu Feng changed his ID. His previous ID in the studio had been a default string of numbers, but now he changed it to LU. There was a list of players in the live broadcast room. For example, in this team, the starters from both teams and the coaches were all on the list. Fans could send out gifts for their favorite players in order to build up their popularity. The popularity list and KDA (the comprehensive data on a players kill rate, death rate, and other indicators) list were updated in real time and would gradually become white hot as the battle progressed. In recent years, Chinas popularity list and KDA list were dominated by one person. Of course it was Close. As for this year Close had become Quiets number one supporter on the list. The fans were amused when they saw this ID on the list, LU? LU! Isnt this my Closes favorite alt account ID? As everyone knows, all of Closes alt accounts use this name. Could it be, maybe, is it that What are you thinking? How could Close be bored enough to smash gifts for the players from his own team. Big boss, youre going too far with this act! Fake very fake it hurts this CP fan. Lu Feng didnt look at the scrolling comments. He just stared at the screen, rhythmically brushing out his love. Quiet took First Blood, LU sent 520 hearts. Quiet got a double kill, LU sent 1314 hearts. Quiet got a triple kill, LU sent out 6666 hearts. Quiet got a pentakill, LU sent out 9999 hearts Finally, some fans discovered these magical numbers and exclaimed in surprise, Quickly take a look at this big bosss gifts ahhhh Holy shit, this persons heart and eyes only have Quiet! Quiet is indeed very excellent, but these gifts are all filled with love! Jealous, jealous, I also want to have so many little hearts! After the end of the first game, FTW won the game beautifully, while Quiet became the number one person on Chinas popularity list. At the same time, the terrifying KDA of 18 kills and 0 deaths also took him to the top of the listCCthis wasnt only first place in China, but also first place in the world. Even if it was just temporary, it was still shocking! xiin: ive always wondered is western live streaming also this crazy with gifts? Chapter 111: A Quiet that nobody is managing will bite people. Nobody placed that much emphasis on the KDA rankings. After all, when the big guys in the other competition zones started competing, theyd likely clean out the rankings almost instantly. Quiets ability to get first place was entirely dependent on how weak LH was and was of little significance. But his number one ranking in the popularity list was extremely brilliant. There were some senior analysis emperors around: Theres no need to think about it. This LU must be a CP fan, a fan who ships the double jungler CP. Seeing that Close isnt there, they disguised themselves as one of the main characters to show love like crazy. Thats right! I just went to look at their data. The IDs gender is female. It must be a little sister who has a ton of money. Impressed, impressed, no wonder everyone wants to sell to fujoshis, even Im falling for it. Previous poster, wake up. Are you as cool as Close, or as handsome as Quiet? Little sisters, dont be so desperate. Please grow up to look like Close, and then have Closes strength, and be as rich as him while youre at it Please excuse me, goodbye! Nobody believed that LU really was Lu Feng. It was just an ID that could be found anywhere. Especially back then when Lu Feng used his alt account on his live broadcast for the first time and exposed his ID LU, there was instantly a crowd of people whod followed suit and seized the same ID across countless platforms. Later, there were too many fakes, and everyone was sick of seeing them. Theyd gotten so used to it that there was nothing strange about it. The story of the boy whod cried wolf was unforgettable, no matter whether it was on purpose or accidental. Now the real person had showed up, but nobody believed it. Only when Lu Feng saw the scrolling comments did he realize that the accounts default gender was female. He was too lazy to change it back to male. Not to mention changing the gender, he even wrote in his self introductionCCEven if Im Close, nobody will believe me. Lu Feng had also considered that nobody would believe that it was him when he brazenly sent out gifts. Nobody believed it, but a little lunatic would. That was enough. FTWs match against LH was BO3, which meant that the first team to win two games would win. FTW won two games in one go, and it only took one and a half hours. They could be described as vigorous and resolute. In the first game, Wei Xiao took the berserker thief. At the start of the game, he locked onto LHs mid-laner. He came close and used a forced control skill, sending him right back to the crystal. At the time, LH had still been able to hold on, and someone was still saying in their team chat, Its okay, its okay, the berserker thief is relatively fierce during the early stages, stay steady! Support, come with me, well go into their jungle area! Their mid-lane was dead, so they naturally had to go and snatch up the other sides resources to get even. Who couldve known that when they entered the area with the red buff, theyd run head-on into the Brother Cai whod been crouching there in advance to wait. Brother Cai used a bubble tune and sent both of them into a stunned daze. LHs support yelled, Retreat! Theres an ambush! LHs jungler, Bro, Ive been locked in place! Everyone in LH: Then, they saw the berserker thief come in from behind to surround them, taking away LHs junglers life before chasing LHs support player around and around until he was crying and wailing. A triple kill at the start of the game made LH collapse thoroughly. LPs mid-laner said darkly, I heard that we supposedly managed to suck in some luck? I heard that we supposedly worshipped Buddha and changed our fate? I heard that we supposedly have a 70% win rate? I heard that we were going to turn the tables completely? F*ck! The internet is full of liars. Laozi is damned for believing them! Like hell had they sucked in luck. Theyd completely opened up a Pandoras box and released a new demon. They even said that they had a 70% win chance. They should be a little bit more confident and change it to 100%CC100% chance of losing until they dropped their underwear! LHs mid-laner died again. He was very calm, I feel that we might be better off with God Lu. LHs mid-laner continued, If we werent given some hope at the start, there would be no need for such despair now. Everyone: Shit, this was too real! They were abused brutally in the first game, and in the second game, it was even more bloody. In these two games, Quiet didnt use the inherited shadow thief at all. Of course, it was also that LH had banned the shadow thief. However, there wasnt much significance in whether they banned it or not. As the number of deaths increased, LHs team members wanted to expressCCit was better to let out the shadow thief, at least they could then see the light arcs spreading all over the sky! For better or worse, it would be a magnificent death. If they could die with their eyes dazzled, then it would be a different experience! The crowd of people who were flaming FTW were all slapped until their faces were swollen by this slaughter show. Chen Fengs face also felt a little painfulCCto hell with being afraid. These beasts would only make others afraid! A BO3 usually took more than two and a half hours to finish, but FTW only took an hour and a half. Although they hadnt broken any records for the shortest time taken, it was still fast and direct. There was an interview session after the competition. The host would choose a representative from the winning and losing teams and ask them a few questions. The audience was looking forward to it. They were too curious, wanting to know who from FTW would come out for the interview. The host would definitely ask them sharp questions, so how would FTW answer? Exciting! Backstage, FTW Lounge. Wei Xiao raised his hand. Chen Feng: No way, you cant go. Wei Xiao was aggrieved, I am the MVP Generally speaking, the interviewees were the MVPs from the team. Based on Wei Xiaos heaven shattering records in the battle, he was naturally the MVP. But how could Chen Feng dare to let him out? FTWs popularity was already high enough, and they didnt need Wei Xiao to stir up big news! Wei Xiao might be crazy in the arena, but he would be well-behaved after he left the court, especially in front of his seniors. Chen Feng glanced over. Ning Zhehans back tensed up, I-I cant do it, coach! He would stammer and humiliate the team! Yue Wenle had an aura of powerlessness, My health bar is empty. Two games had used up a lot of energy. There were chips to replenish him, but he just wanted to lie there on the ground. Tang Chen scratched the back of his head, Ill go Chen Feng rolled his eyes at him. Let Tang Chen go? The damned host would be able to clean out all of FTWs savings! In the end, there was only one person left. Bai Cai sighed, Ill go. Chen Feng nodded. Brother Cai was already used to it. Hed taken a lot of interviews last season. From being anxious and flustered the first time to the thick-skinned shamelessness at the end, it had all been tempered by time. FTW had a high win rate last year, and Close rarely gave interviews. Yue Wenles strength was exhausted after a game, leaving just this little delicate vegetable that he could take out and make use of. The audience watched eagerly, and the host was well prepared. As soon as Bai Cai came up onto the stage, everyone stared at him. The scrolling comments were still noisy, Why isnt it Quiet? I want to see him! You guys are only interested in new people and forget about the old. Are the pickled vegetables fangirls still there?! Sorry, only FTWs double jungler CP is real. God Bai, dont come here and act as a light bulb. Why didnt Quiet come out? I think it would be interesting if he was interviewed. As someone who has listened to Glorys Mic Explosion King, I want to express that it might not just be interesting, it might even be colorful. Yes yes yes, that sentence give it to me, captain, made my ears numb when I heard it Fortunately Brother Cai couldnt see the scrolling comments. Otherwise, he would go on strike if he saw itCCdid they think Laozi really wanted to be interviewed? Laozis worth was also very high, okay? A trace of disappointment skimmed over the hosts eyes. It wasnt because Quiets popularity now suppressed Brother Cai, but because most of the questions she had on hand were related to Quiet. It was obviously more impactful if he answered them himself. Of course, this was the representative FTW had sent over, and the organizers couldnt interfere too much with that. The host smiled and congratulated FTW on winning with a 2:0 score. Bai Cai also replied with some formulaic words. Next, the hosts words changed abruptly, When faced with Closes departure, is God Bai nervous? Bai Cai gave a superficial smile, Of course Im nervous. The hosts eyes lit up, It seems that the captain being absent adds a burden to everyone. I wonder how it affects you all specifically? Is it convenient for God Bai to share with us? Bai Cai: Its not a big deal. The host: Oh? Bai Cai: When the captain is here, our jungler king will reluctantly act human; when our captain isnt in the team, our jungler king no longer acts human. The host: ??? Bai Cai picked up the microphone and said frankly, Everyone should be careful. A Quiet that nobody is managing will bite people. Everyone on the internet: .. Wei Xiao, who was backstage, was amused, Motherf*cker, Brother Cai! When Close wasnt here, FTW was really nervous. They werent nervous about losing the game, but rather, they were nervous that they couldnt hold back the little lunatic in their team! When the captain wasnt there, was FTW just waiting to be slaughtered at will? Dream on! The other teams should wash their necks clean and wait to get shut out with a zero score! The position of first place in the group belonged to FTW! The scrolling comments exploded. Some people applauded, some sneered, some cheered, and others yelled abuse Amidst this mixed crowd, the big boss with the ID LU sent out six bubbles to Bai Cai. Some fans with sharp eyes caught this and laughed until their stomachs hurt. Big boss, your double standards are too obvious! When they sent hearts to Quiet, they started off with 520. They sent free bubbles to God Bai, and they only gave six of them! If I was God Bai, I would die crying on the interview stage. Hahahahahaha I get it, Big Boss LU is firmly in the double jungler party and doesnt care about pickled vegetables. Today was a victorious day for FTW, in all senses. First on the points table and first in net (victory or defeat within the group) points. Wei Xiao was number one on the popularity rankings, and he was also number one in the global KDA rankings. Finally, Brother Cais interview was the finishing touch. One Quiet will bite people was basically tossed up onto the hot search. When they were in the van on the way back to the base, everyone was happy and excited. Chen Feng: What do you want to eat tonight? Yue Wenle: Potato-potato chips Nobody paid any attention to his weak voice. Everyone else cheered, Hotpot! How could they live up to their passionate performance if they didnt eat hotpot after theyd won? Wei Xiaos heart grew itchy as soon they got into the car. He wanted to send Lu Feng a message, but he was also afraid of disturbing his sleep. After spending more than ten hours on the plane, it hadnt been easy for the captain to settle in. He had to rest well, and Wei Xiao couldnt disturb him. Hold back, hold back, hold back. Wei Xiao managed to control himself. When they arrived at the hotpot restaurant, Brother Cai ordered the dishes. Some sort of 699 yuan wagyu beef, 788 yuan top grade lamb taking advantage of the fact that the money he was spending wasnt his own, he ordered everything that was rich and powerful. Wei Xiaos interest in food was so-so. He bit at his straw and drank his watermelon juice. After ordering, Brother Cai looked at him, What, why arent you happy after winning the game? Wei Xiao couldnt be bothered to look at him. Brother Cai inexplicably understood, You miss the captain? Wei Xiao: Brother Cai was impervious, If you miss him, then you miss him. Whatre you putting on airs for? Hurry up and call the captain to give him the good news. Wei Xiao glared at him, The captain needs to sleep. As an onlooker, Brother Cai saw things more clearly, Are you stupid? Its our first game, do you think the captain would be sleeping? Wei Xiao: F*ck! Oh yeah, this was their first game. How could the captain be relieved enough to go to sleep? He would quickly give him a call. He would report the good news so that the captain could sleep well. Wei Xiao picked up his cell phone and got up. Just then, Bai Cai exclaimed, Oh holy shit, Brother Xiao, not bad. Wei Xiao was anxious, wanting to go out and make the call, Hm? Bai Cai raised up his cell phone to show him, Some big boss screwed you all the way up to the first place in the popularity rankings. Wei Xiao wasnt interested in these superficial things. His heart was filled with Lu Feng, Oh Until Bai Cai added a sentence, This IDs inspired, they actually called themselves LU. Wei Xiaos ears twitched, What? Bai Cai pointed to the ID that had leveled up too high because it had sent out too many gifts and now had special effects wrapped around its name, Look. A golden and sparkling LU, a shiny and flashing LU, a LU that was filled with love. Wei Xiao blinked. Brother Cai tsked twice, If it wasnt that the number of hearts that was gifted was too cringey, I would even think that it was the captain. Wei Xiaos heart thumped, What numbers. Bai Cai read them out rhythmically, When you took First Blood, he gave you 520 hearts; when you got a double kill, he gave you 1314 hearts Little Ning raised his hand, I know what that means, this means I love you forever! Wei Xiao: Bai Cai sighed emotionally, Rich people, tossing out 200,000 in one go. I also want ah He caught a glimpse of Wei Xiao from the corner of his eyes and was shocked, Why are your ears red? Wei Xiao hefted his cell phone and went to leave, his voice muffled, Its hot. Bai Cai: ??? The hotpot hadnt even arrived yet, and he already felt hot? Wei Xiao pushed the door open and stepped out, Im going out for air. Those in the room looked at each other, and Tang Chen hit the nail on the head, Could it be that this LU is someone Wei Xiao knows? Ning Zhehan was also curious, Brother Xiaos girlfriend? Chen Feng, whod guessed the truth, Damn it, Im already full even before the hotpot! xiin: 5201314 bowls of dogfood~ Chapter 112: Wei Xiao: I dont like women. Wei Xiao clicked on the voice call function in WeChat. Generally speaking, Lu Feng would switch his cell phone to do not disturb mode while he slept, so this call wouldnt wake him up if he was asleep. Obviously though, Brother Cai had been right. Lu Feng picked up. Wei Xiao breathed lightly, Didnt you say you were sleeping? Lu Feng: Couldnt sleep. Wei Xiao: He said he was going to sleep, but then he couldnt fall asleep. Alright then, it was very logical. They listened to the sound of each others breathing and started to miss each other all over again. The two of them fell silent for a while, and it was Lu Feng who spoke first, It was a well played game. Wei Xiaos hand clenched involuntarily around the cell phone. He leaned against the red wooden pillar and asked, Is that LU person you? He had already determined the truth in his heart, but he still wanted to ask. He kept feeling as though this wasnt something his captain would do, but once he thought about if the captain had done these things, he strangely felt moved by it. Lu Feng didnt say anything. Wei Xiao felt a little bit disappointed, If its not you, then forget it. Its nothing. It wasnt the captain Sure enough, the captain wouldnt do something so pointless and give out gifts with those numbers Lu Feng: Its me. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng: If youre talking about the LU who is number one on the support rankings, then its indeed me. He repeated it, speaking in such detail and still using such a low, gentle voice to say it. Wei Xiao: F*ck! He already missed him, but now he missed him even more! A waiter just happened to pass by. They seemed to be a Glory fan, and when they saw Wei Xiaos team uniform, their eyes brightened slightly. Wei Xiao pushed himself up and went to find a more secluded place. Lu Feng noticed it, You havent returned back to the base yet? Wei Xiao lowered his voice, Were at a hot pot restaurant. Lu Feng understood. He smiled, You deserve to have a good meal after winning the game. Wei Xiao endured it for a long time but wasnt able to hold back, Captain Mm. Do you know what 5201314 means? Lu Feng: I know. Wei Xiaos heart leapt. Lu Feng spoke in a low voice, I love you, forever. Wei Xiao: Lu Fengs voice held traces of a smile, I didnt get it wrong, right? Wei Xiao couldnt quite catch his breath, Are you trying to make me fly over there and kiss you right now? Lu Feng stopped teasing him, Dont think about it, you have a game tomorrow. How could Wei Xiao stop thinking about it? His heart was completely out of control right now, jumping around like crazy! Fortunately, Wei Xiao still understood what was more important even at critical moments. He tried to distract himself, attempting to act like a person again, Why did you send out so many gifts? The platform also takes a cut. Even if it were gifts given through the official live broadcast room, the platform would still take a cut, and the cut wasnt small. The final sum that would reach the team was only a number that had been cut down several times. However, Lu Feng didnt give him any chance to act like a person. He said quietly, I wanted to see you take first place. Wei Xiao took a deep breath, Captain, dont be like this, its making my legs go soft. Lu Feng: If the conversation went on like this, one of them would either fly back from M Country, or fly to M Country from China. Neither option was good. They needed to pull the brakes! Lu Feng: Go and eat, Im going to sleep. Wei Xiao also didnt dare to tease him further, Okay After hanging up, Wei Xiao sent Lu Feng a WeChat message. Lu Feng got out of bed to take a bath and caught a glimpse of that line of textCCTaking number one on the popularity ranking is meaningless. Wait for me to take countless real number ones. Lu Feng stooped to pick up his cell phone and typed out one word, Okay. Before going back to their room at the restaurant, Wei Xiao first went to the bathroom to adjust his expression. He tried not to smile too sweetly, tried not to let people see any flaws, and tried to put on a serious face! As soon as Brother Cai saw him, he said, You were just giving the captain a report, why are you smiling so excessively Great. The corners of Brother Xiaos lips pressed down, and he was no longer so happy, Shut up! The pink bubbles in his heart had disappeared by the time he finished swearing at the vegetable. Bai Cai ridiculed him, Youre just making a phone call, yet you have to avoid everyone while doing so. Do you think youre still a primary school student or something? For once, Wei Xiao actually didnt get his point. Bai Cai: Sneaking off to find the class teacher to make a report. Wei Xiao: He looked at the simple and stupid Brother Cai and didnt know if he felt gratified, or wanted to smash him over the head. And this was the Gossip Emperor? Had he fed all of his little articles to the dogs? In fact, Bai Cai really couldnt be blamed for this. Wei Xiaos level of stickiness towards Lu Feng had been even stronger back when he hadnt yet had his sexual awakening. Brother Cai had experienced countless hardships and had already become fearless in the face of danger. Chen Feng was scared that the cat would be let out of the bag and beckoned. Come and eat. Wei Xiao sat down and picked at his food. Little Ning held back for a long time and finally couldnt hold back any longer, Brother Xiao is LU your girlfriend? Wei Xiao: It was fortunate that he wasnt eating properly. Otherwise, hed have sprayed out a mouthful of food all over the table. The 699, 899 yuan beef would all be wasted blindly just like that. Ning Zhehan stared at him with big, curious eyes. Wei Xiao sipped at his fruit juice to suppress his shock, Why would you think that. Little Ning still remembered. Didnt you say that you had a girlfriend before? And hed said that she was a strong woman and career orientated. It was just that theyd never seen her face. Wei Xiao managed to dredge out this segment from the depths of his memory. He had indeed pretended that his boss was his girlfriend before. His boss was LU. In a sense, Little Ning had discovered the truth. Wei Xiao cleared his throat, We split up a long time ago. Little Ning: Wei Xiao spoke earnestly and sincerely, Little Ning, have we won first place in the regular season, taken a grand slam in the playoffs, and brought back the championship trophy? Ning Zhehan shook his head blankly. Wei Xiaos expression was cold, Then why are you thinking about falling in love. Little Ning was scared, No-no-no, I dont dare! Wei Xiao was satisfied, Eat, then. Everyone: Clearly, you were the one who was spreading gossip. How did it turn into Ning Zhehan falling in love early? Chen Feng glanced at Wei Xiao and said in his heart: Little Lunatic Wei, please act like a person. Youre almost up in heaven with your relationship, so dont you feel embarrassed telling others not to think about such things? Wheres your dignity! After eating hot pot, the hot and steamy FTW team returned back to the base. There would be a match tomorrow. Chen Feng didnt mention reviewing the game and only told them not to stay up too late. Todays game wasnt very significant. LH was too weak, and Quiet had been too crazy, leading his teammates to crush their opponents like a bulldozer. They wouldnt be able to find problems in the replay, and it might even make them overconfident. Tomorrows game was still within their group cycle. The team they were up against was called GOQ. They were stronger than LH, but they were still a team that padded the bottom of the group. As long as FTW could maintain todays momentum, winning the game wouldnt be difficult. FTW only had these two games this week, making it a relatively easy week for them. However, their next week would be hell mode. FTW would be up against 3U, and it would be an away game. It was difficult to say whether they would win or lose. Chen Feng didnt use these things to scare them. He just wanted them to maintain their state and win tomorrows game. They played as a team for a while, and then they all went to bed at one oclock in the morning to conserve their energy. Bai Cai looked at Wei Xiao, Not going to sleep? Wei Xiao glanced at the time, You go sleep. Im going to play for a bit longer. There was nobody else in the training room. Bai Cai looked at him for a while, You Wei Xiao lifted his head to look at him, Double queue? At the end of the day, Bai Cai was still uneasy and sat down, Come on. The two of them double queued on the international server. Wei Xiao had always maintained a very high standard of play, and there was no trace of entertainment at allCChe didnt let the opponents off when he could crush them, and he wasnt careless even when the win was guaranteed. After two or three rounds, the passers-by were tortured until they were crying. If Bai Cai still couldnt sense something, he wouldnt deserve to claim to have known him for over two years. In fact, Bai Cai could already feel that Wei Xiao was a little distracted while still in the car. This fellow was used to camouflaging his feelings, and he was also particularly strong. Once he held up the umbrella to provide shelter, he would guard everyone beneath it. Even if there was a storm outside the umbrella, even if he was drenched, even if he himself was crumbling, he would absolutely maintain the shelter under the umbrella. Two years ago, Wei Xiao had held up the youth training camp team that had shortcomings everywhere in the team just like this. Two years later, he was now guarding FTW underneath his umbrella. But, in fact, Wei Xiao was only 19 years old, even younger than him. Bai Cais heart felt astringent. He said, Dont give yourself too much pressure. Wei Xiaos hand paused very conspicuously. Bai Cai noticed it and comforted him, FTW isnt that weak. Brother Tangs level is very high, and your jungler is very stable. Whats there to be afraid of? On the surface, thats how it appeared. Tang Chen was a champion from last years domestic competition, and there was nothing that could be said about his abilities. Ning Zhehan, as a new member of the team, was growing very fast and performed very well. There was even less need to mention Wei Xiao, whose performance as a jungler was incredibly stable. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were old partners, and theyd passed the trials of the domestic competition together last year. They werent weak to the point where they were unable to withstand a breeze. However, when it came to their internal state, Bai Cai didnt dare to think too deeply about it. Tang Chen wanting to retire was entirely because his body could no longer hold up. Ning Zhehan also had limited experience. His emotions were easily incited, but it was also easy for him to fall into a slump. Wei Xiao was excellent at playing jungler, but his cooperation with Yue Wenle had always been flawed. It was something everyone could sense, but unfortunately, there was no helping it. This was something that needed to be trained over time. Bai Cai could think of all these things, so how could Wei Xiao not be aware of them? On the surface, he was careless and fierce, but was he really that confident in his heart? He shouldered the pressure of the captains departure from the team, holding onto the belief that they could only win. Was Wei Xiao really as at ease as he appeared? The more Bai Cai thought about it, the more flustered he was. What are you thinking about over there. Wei Xiao clicked on the queue button and glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao locked in the berserker thief and spoke casually, Theres something on my mind, but its not what you think. Bai Cai didnt believe him, Pretend, continue to pretend. The game entered the matching interface. Wei Xiao said lightly, Youre insisting on making me tell the truth, hey. Bai Cai stared at him and couldnt tell if he was serious or not, Other than Glory, what else can you have on your mind? Wei Xiao fought against a jungle creep while tossing a bomb at Bai Cai, Recently, Ive suddenly discovered that Brother Cai was all ears, Hm? Wei Xiaos voice was very calm, I dont like women. Bai Cai: ?????? He retreated sharply and looked at Wei Xiao with an expression full of shock. F*ck, where was this going? He just wanted to help a fellow brother work through some problems. How come the conversation was taking such a strange turn?! Wei Xiao squinted at him, Wake up, I dont like women, but I wont start liking a vegetable. Bai Cai didnt nitpick about whether or not he was a human being. He let out a breath and leaned over, What exactly is wrong with you?! Wei Xiao manipulated the berserker thief, flaunting excellent operations that were being executed flawlessly even as his mouth was spouting something shocking, Its nothing much, Ive lived for 19 years and suddenly discovered my sexual orientation. Bai Cai lost his voice for three full seconds, then finally managed to speak, You like men? Wei Xiao: Yeah. Bai Cai sat to the side in a daze. His mind felt like it was stuffed with wool. All kinds of threads were wound together, and he couldnt make sense of anything. Then Bai Cai suddenly had a flash of inspiration and realized, You cant have secretly fallen in love with the captain, right? Wei Xiao: In fact, it wasnt a secret love. Bai Cai understood everything. At this moment, he understood everything! It was no wonder that Wei Xiao was so restless, no wonder Wei Xiao was in a daze, no wonder Wei Xiao was acting so abnormally! Brother Cai was distressed, You didnt get rejected by the captain, did you? Wei Xiaos hand shook, and the kill that had almost been in hand ran off. The more Bai Cai thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, You-youre saying that you ah, you ah Wei Xiao was afraid that his brain would come up with too much nonsense and that he would end up scared to death instead of crushed by the pressure of the competition. He said quickly, No! He wasnt lying, the captain hadnt rejected him. Bai Cai was obviously misled. He felt that Wei Xiao meant that there had been no confession and was greatly relieved. His face started to gain back some of the color hed lost, Damn, you scared the hell out of me! Wei Xiao continued to kill and set fire across the canyon, So, God Bai, can you rest assured and go to bed? Bai Cai: Like hell Im assured! This was even more worrying. His fellow brother had a secret crush on their captain. What would they do if it fell apart? Would FTW still be there the next day? Bai Cai couldnt sit still. He got up and walked around the training room, muttering to himself, When did it start? Was it after the captain left the team? That had to be it. According to his intuition, that moment had been the most likely point! Liking a person was something that wasnt always felt when they spent every day together. Once they separated, that feeling couldnt be suppressed any longer. Hed seen too many of those reunion after a brief parting is as sweet as a honeymoon articles! Bai Cai, as a well-informed straight man, helped give Wei Xiao his advice, Old Wei, you have to hold on, you cant confess to him right now! Wei Xiao found it difficult to get off this tiger hed jumped on. His emotions were complicated, Yeah. xiin: *cringe* Wei Xiaoxiao, this is what lying gets you Chapter 113: Lu Feng: Born weak. The journey Bai Cais heart took could only be described as something that was very hard to explain. He had his suspicions about the captains sexual orientation, and hed once suspected that he held a secret love for Wei Xiao. Hed also suspected that Wei Xiao was a hardcore straight man who was blind to it all. Hed never thought that the truth and his suspicions would be a million miles apart! It was Wei Xiao who had a secret crush, and it was Wei Xiao whod bent himself? What about the captain If Bai Cai had thought that the captain was gay previously, then after the end of the winter training camp, hed already become much more open minded about it all. Just based on Little Lunatic Weis misleading words, and the way they both slept in the same room, as long as the captain was even a little interested in him, they wouldve already done the deed. Yet as a result, except for his own brain going into overdrive, nothing had happened between the two of them at all! Oh, something had happened now, and it was Wei Xiao whod first bent himself into a mosquito incense coil! Bai Cai was flustered. He wasnt sure how the captain felt about Wei Xiao, but at the moment, FTW couldnt afford to have new problems unexpectedly crop up. Just imagine, if Wei Xiao couldnt resist and confessed over the phone, what the result might be? If the captain felt the same way, he might fly back from North America at any minute. Would he even stay to heal his arm? If the captain didnt feel that way, then would Wei Xiao, whod just suffered a huge blow, still be able to play? And they still wanted to be number one in the group? They might end up as the bottom first in the group. The Brother Cai who was only 20 years old had to bear a burden that he shouldnt have to at his age! Bai Cai didnt have time to care about the fact that Wei Xiao was still playing. He pulled up a chair to sit next to him, speaking like a bitter old woman, Calm your state of mind. I feel that the captain doesnt necessarily have no interest in you. Wei Xiao: It was true that he didnt have no interest, in fact, he was very interested. Bai C self-acknowledged master of emotions C Cai continued, But, you cant confess your feelings to him so rashly. You have to think about it carefully. Im not attacking you or throwing cold water on you, its just that you only found out that you dont like women after such a long time. What if the captain hasnt figured it out yet? We have to give the captain some time, especially now that the captain is undergoing treatment. What if hes too stimulated by your confession and no longer wants to treat his injury! Brother Cais words were well spoken and reasonable. If it wasnt that Wei Xiao had kissed and hugged and slept with the captain a long time ago, he might even have believed it. Lets think about it positively. If your confession is successful, then will you still have any interest in playing after that? You would want to call the captain ten times a day, fly to North America, and you Wei Xiao felt like he was being poked in all his sore points. Even if Brother Cais brain circuits were so crooked they were headed toward the Atlantic Ocean, based on his understanding of Wei Xiao, he could still guess blindly and manage to poke accurately at Wei Xiaos weaknesses. Wei Xiao: Cough I wouldnt. He was trying to reduce it to three calls a day, uh, or maybe five, yeah well anyway, he wouldnt fly over to North America! Bai Cai thought that this meant he wouldnt confess his feelings and was relieved, Brother, hold on, Im on your side. Wei Xiao had pulled out this pile of nonsense concerns mainly to make Bai Cai feel reassured. As a result, it was hard to say if hed reassured this vegetable stalk, but hed definitely added to his worries. Wei Xiao felt a little regretful. He shouldnt have tried to pull this on him! When Bai Cai looked at him now, his eyes were filled with pity. He didnt worry that the competition was giving Wei Xiao pressure and completely believed that he was suffering bitterly from his secret crush. Wei Xiao could only steel himself and continue, Brother Bai, can you let me have some quiet time on my own? Brother Cai sighed and patted him on the shoulder, Dont think too much about it, go to bed early. Wei Xiao nodded heavily, Okay. The door to the training room closed, and Wei Xiao also finished his game. The bright word Victory reflected in his eyes, but it failed to stir up the slightest ripple in his emotions. He didnt want this kind of victory. Wei Xiao clicked out of the game screen and opened up the game replay from the afternoon game. Although Chen Feng hadnt gone over the game with them, Xiang Liu had already brought back the video recording. FTW against LH, a total of two matches. Adding on the BP segment, the entire game only took one and a half hours. It was a very fast game, quick, direct, and crushing. They hadnt given the other side any opportunity to breathe. Wei Xiao stared at the match, watching it from his own perspective, then watching it from the five perspectives of their opponents. He watched all of them one after another. LH had made a lot of mistakes, especially in the second game when their mentality had collapsed and they were being slaughtered at will. The five people on FTWs side all played very well. Each player had some brilliant plays, and their results werent bad. Wei Xiao watched the game over and over again, from Tang Chen to Ning Zhehan to Yue Wenle, and finally Bai Cai. If someone else was here, they definitely wouldnt know what Wei Xiao was looking at. A game like this, was there any need to keep watching it endlessly? Was it necessary to review a crushing match repeatedly? Under absolute superiority in strength, the contestants basically wouldnt expose any problems. What was the point in him watching it over and over again? The sky started to brighten, and the sound of the husky could be heard from outside. Wei Xiao seemed like he was waking up from a dream as he turned off the replay video. Five hours had passed in the blink of an eye. Wei Xiao rubbed his eyebrows and said to himself, Its still not enough. Nobody knew what he meant by not enough. Just like how nobody knew what he was watching all night. Wei Xiao turned off the computer, walked out of the training room, and went back to his bedroom. He hadnt slept all night. As soon as he fell onto the bed, fatigue washed over him like an ocean tide. He didnt even have strength left to take a bath. His fingertips touched his cell phone, wanting to call Lu Feng. No way Wei Xiao let go. If he called at this time, the captain would know that he hadnt slept all night. He couldnt make him worry from a thousand miles away. Wei Xiao might think this way, but his heart was still focused on him. The captain should be going to the hospital today What was the diagnosis and treatment plan? Could he be cured in two months? With layers of thoughts weighing on his heart, Wei Xiao tilted his head on the pillow and fell asleep. He hadnt pulled the curtains, and the morning sun fell on the youths fine skin like a pair of warm hands. Gently stroking him, pitying the fatigue under his black eyelashes. There was no success without effort. Behind this casual self-confidence was ten times the effort that ordinary people couldnt even imagine. 9AM North American time. Yuan Ze got up early in the morning, then went to the balcony to dig out a box of cigarettes from under the flowerpot. To smoke or not to smoke, that was the question. Nobody was there anyway VIVI: Captain, youre up so early? Yuan Ze: VIVI noticed the cigarette case between his fingers. He covered his eyes, I didnt see it, I didnt see anything. Yuan Ze: F*ck! To hell with smoking, Laozi was a person who had determination! God Yuans heart was bleeding as he tossed away his private stash of cigarettes into the trash bin. Who the hell knew why hed decided to quit smoking. Ahhhhh, who the hell knew why he was getting up so early to be a driver? He even had a game in the afternoon! Yuan Ze had a stomach filled with who the hell knew as he got into his flashy car and drove off to the hotel that Boss Lu was staying at. Lu Feng had only slept for three or four hours, but his energy levels were a hundred times better than Yuan Zes. Lu Feng looked at him, I can arrange my own transport. Yuan Ze was bad tempered first thing in the morning, Get in the car. The car had a very low chassis, and the doors were low, making it very unfriendly to people with long legs. Lu Fengs legs really were long. After sitting down, he commented, Your tastes are still so different. To Lu Feng, other than being flashy, it had nothing else going for it. Yuan Ze: If Laozi had as much money as you, Laozi would buy a Rolls Royce too! In order to vent his unhappiness, Yuan Ze said, Sit tight. There arent as many damned speed limits here. His foot pressed down on the accelerator. The powerful push back highlighted Yuan Zes explosive temper. It really was a case where Close would treat him like a kitty instead of a tiger if he didnt bite! Unfortunately, the little brat who wouldve disdained him for driving like a mad dog three years ago was now as stable as Mount Tai and didnt even wrinkle his brows. Yuan Ze inexplicably had a feeling that people matured over time, a feeling of vicissitude that came with getting older. When they arrived at the hospital, Lu Feng refused Yuan Ze even before he could ask, Thank you, but I can handle it myself. Yuan Ze: Im already here. Lu Feng spoke mercilessly, Industry secrets. Captain Yuan, please have some dignity. Yuan Ze: ??? He only managed to digest these words after the other party had left. What damned industry secrets? Would Laozi sell the details about your shoulder?! Although, in a sense, he really could sell it Yuan Ze didnt follow him, but he couldnt stop worrying in his heart. Instead of being concerned about Lu Fengs inability to adapt to a strange environment, he was more worried about his shoulder. At the thought that it was very likely not from strain, Yuan Ze couldnt help feeling guilty. If Closes shoulder was because of them Then F*ck! Yuan Ze really had no heart, because his chest cavity was packed full with a bunch of knives. Lu Fengs check-up was completed very quickly because hed made an appointment in advance. The attending doctor was a middle-aged man with blonde hair. He nodded to Lu Feng, Please sit down for a moment. Lu Feng answered politely and sat to the side. Checking over the results took a long time. Lu Feng sat up straight, his attitude relaxed and calm. He didnt seem to care very much. But if Yuan Ze was there, he would definitely have been able to tell that he was nervous. For the 18 year old Close, the first time hed been nervous was when FTW had prepared a birthday party for him. It was a private little gathering that only involved the few people from the Team of Gods. Close had sat there, looking at the cake set down in front of him. His slender fingers were curled up slightly on his legs, and his posture showing a layer of unobtrusive formality. Yuan Ze, whod been holding the cake, had been amused, Look at you, it cant be the first time youve celebrated a birthday! Close: Kim Sung-hyun: Whose 18th birthday can be celebrated twice? Yuan Ze: I can celebrate it dozens of times. After all, Ill always be 18 years old. Kim Sung-hyun retorted, Be a little less shameless. Lu Feng was seldom nervous, and the way he showed his nervousness was different from others. Those who werent particularly familiar with him wouldnt be able to tell. After all, his sitting posture was correct, his appearance was indifferent, and his gaze was very calm. It didnt look like he was tenseCCexcept for the slightly curled fingers. A long time later, the attending doctor looked at him, Youre a professional e-sports player? Lu Feng nodded, Yes. The doctor set down the examination data in his hands and said some rather academic words in a slow voice, The outcome of the treatment cant be guaranteed, especially with the characteristics of your profession Its relatively difficult with this kind of demand for high precision Especially during treatment, you cant touch the keyboard How you recover during this focused window may affect the future game performance When Lu Feng came out of the hospital, the sky was overcast. Winter was basically the same everywhere. Cold and severe. Yuan Ze had gotten some sleep while he was waiting. He really regretted driving a race car out here; he couldnt even sleep well. Lu Feng was briefly stunned when he saw that he was still there. Yuan Ze got out of the car and almost ended up freezing to death, Howd it go? Lu Feng went straight to the car, his voice carrying the chill from outside, Systematic treatment will begin the day after tomorrow. Yuan Ze rubbed his hands together for warmth, It shouldnt be a big problem, right? Lu Feng: Mm. Yuan Ze was really curious, How exactly did you get a shoulder injury? Lu Feng told him a lie with his eyes open, It was born weak. Yuan Ze: With your goddamned height, your dream mans figure, youre claiming that you were born with a weak body? Can you give others a way to live? The next FTW game was also at 3PM. After the success of yesterdays first game, the FTW team was filled with energy and confidence today. GOQ wasnt a strong team, and the way they tackled the BP link was just like LH. They first banned the shadow thief as a sign of respect. Wei Xiao didnt care at all, Lets do another round with the berserker thief? GOQ banned the berserker thief next, expressing their fear. Wei Xiao: Bai Cai: Theres still the immortal thief. GOQ must have arranged a spy in FTW, because the next talent they banned was the immortal thief. Wei Xiao was amused, Are they looking down on me? If they wanted to target Wei Xiao, they couldnt do it by targeting his veritable sea of a hero pool. Chen Feng: Hidden thief? Wei Xiao: Blood thief. This talent hadnt been used much in their training matches. Chen Feng hesitated a little. Wei Xiao: Come on, let them see what it means to have hot blood spilling all over the Glory Canyon. The heated blood was FTWs, and the blood that would be spilled was GOQs. This was going to be really great. After staying up all night last night, Wei Xiao wanted to verify the conclusions hed drawn. He knew where his weaknesses were, and he knew where the teams gaps were. Cooperation and tacit understanding needed to be accumulated over time. The others didnt have that much time and energy, but he did. Wei Xiao had watched the seemingly meaningless video replays over and over again. In fact, hed been building up his understanding of every teammate in the canyon. Their strengths, their weaknesses, their sense of rhythm, their personal habits Wei Xiao wasnt going to wait for others to cooperate with him. He was going to take the initiative to cooperate with everyone else! xiin: Goooo Wei Xiao! Chapter 114: The unremarkable Little Lunatic GOQ was really a little excessive. Theyd probably been scared by Wei Xiao after watching FTWs game against LH yesterday and therefore banned the thieves like crazy. There were six ban places in a professional game. The first three here had all been given to Wei Xiao. After three bans, they could no longer continue to ban. Both parties had to choose three talents to play. FTW also acted crazy. Wei Xiao was targeted to this extent, but the first three talents they chose still werent jungler positions. They just easily and skillfully snatched up a few strong talents. The scrolling comments were quite lively, Come on, come on, lets guess if FTW is being too overconfident towards Quiet, or if theyve already given up on treatment. From what I understand about the grandmaster, it should be the former. Enough already. The shadow thief, berserker thief, and immortal thief have all made it onto the ban spots. Does your Q Dad even have any other talent specs to use? I just want to quietly say, please think about what kind of ending those domestic teams that targeted the great demon king experienced back then. The scrolling comments were filled with a bunch of ellipsis. This was a good story that circulated around the China competition zone. All six ban positions had been used on Close, yet in the end, was FTWs soul cut off? No In the end, it was Close showing everyone a new jungler talent build. Who said that only the shadow thief, hidden thief, berserker thief, immortal thief could pull off amazing plays? He could take a death knight and still send you down to hell! I dont believe that FTW could have another great demon king. I dont believe it either! There wont be another great demon king, but a lunatic king might appear Finally, after GOQ banned the hidden thief, the power thief, and the blade thiefCC FTWs last position locked in the blood thief. The commentators eyes lit up, The blood thief? This talent has been on the bench for a long time, and very few people have used it recently. Its blood-sucking mechanism has been adjusted this season, its survival ability is lower, and its DPS isnt very high, making this talent quite difficult to play. The strong jungler talents have been banned, and GOQ snatched up the death knight. There really arent many jungler talents left. Taking the blood thief is alright. At least its good at self-protection. It will be up to the immortal warlock and the frost hunter to turn the whole game around this time! Because GOQ had targeted Wei Xiao like crazy, FTW had taken the immortal warlock and frost hunter, ensuring Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had a level of strength When the final line-up was determined, both sides jungler positions were a bit disabledCC FTW: Berserker warrior, Blood thief, Immortal warlock, Light priest, Frost hunter. GOQ: Divine warrior, Death knight, Shadow mage, Giant shaman, Storm hunter. From just looking at the line-up, FTW had the advantage. The top-lane, mid-lane, marksman, and even their support players had obtained strong talents that they understood deeply. On the other hand, GOQ had simply harmed themselves. Because theyd given all their ban positions to Quiet, the other FTW positions were able to move around like fish in water, taking whichever talent they wanted. Was Ning Zhehan weak? Was Yue Wenle weak? Was God Tang weak? In the GOQ team chat: I know theyre very strong, but Quiet is so terrible ahhhh-hic! Scared into hiccups even before we start playing, what kind of sins have Quiet committed? CCThe netizens who heard Glorys Mic Explosion King later on would say this. Everyone from the commentators to the audience to the players in the field all felt that Quiet taking the blood thief was expedient, a choice that had to be made, and he was now forced to rely on his teammates to carry the match. There was only the true love fan LU who gave Quiet 520 roses. Roses were five yuan each. They were cheaper than the hearts, but 520 roses was still amazing. In reality, it was also enough to buy a huge bouquet of roses! There were special effects when LU sent out a scrolling comment. Inside the heart shaped bubble were a few cold, indifferent words, The blood thief is very strong. The big boss spoke up! The blood thief is strong? Are they saying that the talent is strong or that Quiets blood thief is strong? There are layers of context here, could this big boss know Quiet? All sorts of attention seeking scrolling comments appeared on the screen, aimed at the big bossCC Little sister, look at me, I also want to be taken care of! Although Im not as handsome as Quiet, and Im not as strong as Quiet, I work very hard Of course, there were others who were shipping CPs, Fellow sisters, Im going crazy, I feel that this tone of voice is very similar to Close. Im done, Im dead, Ive already made up a 450,000 character sweet little article in my brain! At three oclock in the morning, the jet lagged Lu Feng was watching the live broadcast again. This time, Yuan Ze hadnt tried to have dinner with him. However Yuan Ze had been bored, and with nothing to do hed made his way back to the domestic competitions to watch a very small regular season match. Then, hed seen LU on Quiets support list, the pink heart bubbles, the 520 roses, and that line of cold words. Yuan Ze: There was no doubting it, no suspense about it. If this wasnt Close, then he would perform eating shit while doing a handstand live! If he didnt look, he wouldnt know. But when he looked Yuan Ze was expressionless as he took a screenshot and sent it on along with a comment, Men in love are really terrible. Hed known early on that Close was black bellied, but he hadnt expected him to be this kind of repressed flirt! Oh, this wasnt being repressed, this was an obvious flirt! Kim Sung-hyun: ? Yuan Ze reminded him, Look at the ID! Kim Sung-hyun: LU? If there wasnt a hot dog eating Old G across from Yuan Ze, he wouldve called Kim Sung-hyun directly, Its Close! Kim Sung-hyun: I know that. Now it was Yuan Zes turn to send over a question mark. If he knew, then why wasnt he going through the process of being shocked, dumbfounded, and stunned? Kim Sung-hyun sent him an expression pack that was reserved for Old Dog YuanCCa steaming hot pile of shit. It cant be that you still dont know Closes sexual orientation, right? Yuan Ze: Kim Sung-hyun laughed at him ruthlessly, And you even read seven or eight psychology books hahahahahahaha. Captain Yuan had just suffered 10,000 points of damage. He wanted to block this beloved disciple of his! Due to Yuan Zes breaking news, Kim Sung-hyun also went into the China competition zones live broadcast room. Fortunately, there werent any special effects for professional players who joined the live broadcast room. Otherwise, if such a thing existed, the entire live broadcast room would probably explodeCC What happened?! Why would a regular season match between FTQ and GOQ attract two god level people in the Glory circle! FTWs starter list didnt even have Close. And everyone in GOQ were surnamed noob. It was a game that held no value in watching it. How had it attracted two big guys like that! Kim Sung-hyun had clicked in because he wanted to see the pink colored LU. And then he was blinded by roses. He showed his cell phone to Li Heran, It hurts the eyes. Li Heran: Brother, Kim Sung-hyun tsked, Do you think Close has a secret crush or have they already gotten together? This question stumped Captain Li. When it came to emotional problems, Captain Li was much more sensitive than Senior Teacher Yuan. Kim Sung-hyun shook his head, Its nice to be young. They really dared to go wild. If this ID was picked out Oh, it wasnt a big deal. Who would believe it? Close was a cold, emotionless great demon king who had nobody in his heart. Who would dare to believe that he would first give out 520 hearts, then 450 roses, and even top it all off with a 1314? Kim Sung-hyun thought about Closes expressionless appearance as he sent out gifts and shook slightlyCC Even an insider like him didnt dare to believe it! At first, Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun were watching LU, but later on, their attention was drawn by the blood thief in the canyon. Lu Feng had also grown serious as he watched the game and stopped sending gifts. The game had been going on for ten minutes, and there was no doubt about the results. FTW was pressuring GOQ and beating them up until they were crying out for their parents. The commentators were also trying to analyze the situation in an impartial tone, crazily giving GOQ a boost. Only the discerning people could see the difference in this game. Yuan Ze directly selected the blood thiefs perspective and stared at Quiet. Kim Sung-hyun raised his eyebrows and propped up his cell phone, This little lunatic is really good. Lu Feng didnt even blink as he watched. At first, he remained locked on the blood thiefs perspective, but later, he began to frequently switch perspectivesCC When Wei Xiao went to the bottom lane, he switched to Yue Wenles perspective. When Wei Xiao went to the top lane, he switched to Tang Chens perspective. When Wei Xiao went to the mid-lane, he switched to Ning Zhehans perspective. Smooth and free. It was these two words that appeared first in Closes mind. Yuan Ze was fascinated by the game. Old G came over, gnawing on a hamburger, FTWs game? GOQ? Havent heard of them. Oh, Quiets blood thief is pretty good. Yuan Ze stared fixedly at Quiet, Cigarette. Old G: Arent you He didnt dare to say more and took out a cigarette from his pocket. Yuan Ze held the cigarette in his mouth and just barely managed to press down his surging emotions, F*ck! Old G couldnt see what the big deal was, Its just crushing the opponent anyone can do that. Yuan Ze took a breath, Yan Jiang. Gary was stunned. On the other side, Kim Sung-hyun smiled lightly and said to Li Heran, I didnt expect to be able to see this level of compatibility with other players in anyone except Yan Jiang. Li Heran had never been teammates with Yan Jiang, and had never experienced this kind of compatibility, but as a support, he understood how important it was. Kim Sung-hyun pointed at the screen, Its still very immature, but its really taking shape. Yuan Ze spoke to himself, Did Close guide him? On the other side, Li Heran asked the same question, and Kim Sung-hyun answered, Impossible. Even Close cant understand Yan Jiangs smooth and free. It sounded very mysterious, and it seemed even a little magical. But, in fact, it was a very precise adjective. It was a kind of feeling that could only be felt by playing as Yan Jiangs teammate. Smooth and free. These two words werent about Yan Jiang or Wei Xiao. It was about how their teammates felt. A strong level of compatibility, an amazing observational ability, intuition, and a talent that couldnt quite be described that made it so that all teammates felt at ease whenever they met him in the canyon. It was like their field of vision had broadened, their pool of opportunities had deepened, and even their thinking could be simplified. The road ahead of them was paved, and they just had to make their plays! It was a subtle feeling. It was hard to describe, but it was very real. It was a trait that only the Team of Gods and the world champions Y1 had. Now The new FTW had a bit of a prototype of the same thing. In FTWs team chatCC Brother Cai: Little Ning, pretty good, that flying on the clouds just now was badass! Ning Zhehan spoke excitedly, Reasonably speaking, even I dont know how I managed to get a double kill! Brother Cai laughed loudly, Not bad, the inherited putting on an act is there, too. For once, Wei Xiao didnt say anything. He cleared out the stone creep and headed straight to the lower jungle zone. Someone stepped on the vision that Brother Cai had inserted there. He spoke anxiously, Old Wei, be careful. His voice had just fallen when Wei Xiao was ambushed. The giant shaman used an ultimate move to launch him up into the air. The GOQ that was basically hammered into seclusion had finally found an opportunity. They were going to lose the game, and there was no hope of turning the tables, but GOQ shouted, Kill the blood thief! Although it was hard to describe it clearly, they could sense that they would definitely die as long as the blood thief was around, even if none of the kill count belonged to the blood thief. Kill him, kill him, the three of us can definitely squeeze him to death! GOQs jungler was particularly excited, Let me get the kill, if I kill this blood thief, Laozi will be able to show off for half a year! It had to be said that GOQ, who was showing the last radiance of the setting sun, was very fierce. The shamans ultimate move was very well executed, perfectly sending the blood thief flying. GOQs jungler and shooter pounced over like they were crazy, the death knight not even having enough time to switch forms. It relied on its flexible movements to first land a set of skills on the blood thief while the storm hunter stepped on raindrops and rushed at the blood thief in a frenzy. Wei Xiaos health bar plummeted like crazy, falling into the red zone while he was still in the air. Only when the health volume had fallen down to a seriously injured state, and the player was about to topple to the ground and die at any time, would a special effect appear. A crazily flashing red bar indicated death. Everyone felt that Wei Xiao was done for. It seemed impossible for him to survive. However, dying one didnt matter. It didnt affect the outcome of the game. The live broadcast camera cut to Wei Xiao, showing a close-up of his profile. The youth who had a pale complexion and very dark eyes looked at the screen calmly and steadily, showing no traces of panic. The camera shifted downwards, falling on his equally pale hands. Beautiful fingers, amazing hand speed. The sound of the keyboard seemed to transmit through the silent screen straight into the hearts of countless viewers. The commentators: The blood raven thief turned back! Quiet only has a sliver of blood left. Hes used a feather transform to rush at the storm hunter, the blood ravens kiss to mark the storm hunterQuiets started up his ultimate move! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed GOQ.yuyu. FTW.Quiet killed GOQ.qingtian. FTW.Quiet killed GOQ.xiafei. FTW.Quiet triple kill! This wasnt an ordinary triple kill, this was a reversal with only a sliver of health! The commentators recounted the situation with very fast words, but unfortunately, everyone who was watching the game didnt hear them. Their scalps were numb. This wave of operations were so excellent that it had made everyones goosebumps jump right up. His positioning, turning back, closing the distance, opening up his ultimate move to regain health, his passive healing In every sliver of every millisecond, if there had been even the tiniest bit of error, it would be impossible for him to play out such a wonderful series of moves! North America, South Korea. Yuan Ze & Kim Sung-hyun: F*ck! The hot dog in Old Gs hands fell. Yan Jiang was very terrible, but no matter how terrible he was, he was still confined to a support position that couldnt deal DPS. This kid Kim Sung-hyun exhaled gently, then leaned back against his e-sports chair, The younger generation is really formidable. How shocking this little lunatic would be when he grew up completely. Chapter 115: Captain, did you go there to treat your shoulder or study how to speak words of love? The blood thiefs full name was the blood raven thief. Before tonight, this was a hero talent that sat on the bench. Not to mention in professional games, it was very rarely used even in passers-by games. The blood raven thief was actually very cool with his dark tuxedo and top hat outfit. In his hand was a black cane, and he had a blood-colored raven on his left shoulder. When this talent had just launched, it had been a favorite for countless players. Not only did the blood raven thief look handsome, it also had remarkable skills; its passive would trigger a healing effect with every three basic attacks, leaving a blood raven feather that marked the opponent; its first skill was called the blood ravens kiss, which would forcibly control the opponent for half a second and mark its opponent; the second skill was feather transform, which was a two section movement skill for attack and escape; its third skill was called raven fall, which could cause explosive damage once it hit a target that was marked by its raven feathers. Its final ultimate move was called blood oath. As the name suggested, it took blood as an oath. Raven feathers would fill the skies, absorbing the blood of its enemies and using it to recover its own health. From a technical perspective, this talent could both attack and defend. It also had a high survivability, and it was actually very good. This had indeed been the case when the talent spec first launched. Later on, the game developer daddies had nerfed him down, reducing the amount of health it could recover and increasing the difficulty of its operations. Theyd chopped this cool brother into pieces. It could attack? Oh, the raven fall that could cause explosive damage had become as useless as chicken feathers. It could defend? The feather transforms movement directions had been reversed. Those who had crippled hands often didnt understand why they ended up flying into someone elses sword when they actually wanted to run away. The worst was the ultimate move: blood oath. Originally, the raven feathers would fall, and all living beings would lose health. Now all living beings would hammer him down into a little brother. It was with such a talent spec that Wei Xiao managed to perform beautifully. GOQs attempt to turn the tables was really beautiful. Regardless of whether it was their control or their DPS, all of it was there. And Wei Xiao really had been caught off guard. That plummeting health bar proved everything. But he didnt panic. The blood thief abruptly used feather transform and attacked the squishy storm hunter. The passive that triggered after three attacks triggered his own healing effect as well as marking the storm hunter, then the blood ravens kiss controlled the storm hunter who had wanted to attack him back just as he opened up the blood oath. As the red ravens feathers covered the sky, the storm hunters health bar plummeted like crazy, while the health bar of the blood thief whod been about to die gradually filled up. CCGive me your blood, so that I can live. This was the blood raven thiefs ability to fight back! GOQs death knight responded quickly. Seeing that the storm hunter couldnt hold on, hed already started to help deal damage. Unfortunately, the blood raven thief whod used his ultimate move to recover half his health didnt retreat at all. He used his positioning to avoid being hit, then used the feather transform to pull away. It seemed like he was about to run away, but when the death knight chased after him, he turned around and used another three attacks to trigger his passive as well as the blood ravens kiss. The death knight whod been controlled was stunned, and the blood thief whose skills were off cooldown used raven fall again. The death knight who only had half his health fell under the blood thiefs black cane. Then, Ning Zhehan arrived, and the giant shaman took the brunt of the immortal warlocks wave of skills. Finally, his kill was taken away by the blood ravens kiss. After this wave, GOQs vitality suffered great damage and they were left completely unable to lift up their heads again. So, this ambush that had been brewing for such a long time, such a beautiful team fight opening, such awesome DPS, in the end Not only did they not manage to kill the blood thief, theyd also sent out a triple kill. The sound of crying in GOQs team chat was really loud! In the first game, FTW exploded GOQs crystal and won the game with overwhelming momentum. In the second game, GOQ was just like a group of scared chickens, insta-banning the blood raven thief. The scrolling comments were filled with sighs, Hey, hey, hey, I still want to see God Q show off his blood raven! GOQ, dont cower, whats the point in banning? There are a total of six ban spots, can you ban them all? They really couldnt ban them all. GOQ was currently performing the very meaning of robbing Peter to pay Paul. As they banned and continued to ban, the back of the flustered GOQ coach chilled, The berserker thief! F*ck, theyd forgotten to ban the berserker thief. GOQs jungler was still young. He spoke naively, Perhaps FTW wont snatch up the jungler position in the first slot. And then Wei Xiao, who was in the first position, took the berserker thief. Everyone in GOQ: GOQs jungler Yuyu almost cried out loud. This team didnt play cards according to common sense. They did whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted QAQ! The Wei Xiao whod gotten the berserker thiefCC Well, forget it, lets not talk about this game. Well leave GOQ with a pair of pants at least. In FTWs second game in the regular season, they crushed their opponents 2:0. The atmosphere amongst the fans was driven up by their results, and the old fans whod been worried also felt a little relieved. Thats good, thats good, although their captain wasnt there, FTW was still very strong! This newcomer Quiet was really capable. He was a tough guy who could smash down the cresting waves on the beach with his strength! Of course, there were also more than a few haters and jealous people, F fans, wake up. Theyre up against 3U next week, well wait for your Daddy Q to show his true colors then. The fans held up the fort, Asleep is someone that One Lamp Grandmaster brought out, so how will that be showing his true colors? Thats more like a tiger coming down from the mountain! What does solo amount to? Your great demon king is number one in the world for solo, but what use is that? They still end up doing round trips in the global competitions. Haha, has your 3U ever gotten a championship? Our 3U performed better in the globals than your FTW! Its just luck, dont you feel ashamed talking about it? Alright then, fighting every day was normal. The China competition zone would be really cold and desolate if there wasnt any fighting. After the game ended, and they went backstage, Wei Xiaos eyes went straight to his cell phone. Brother Cai glanced over and felt that his heart was as clear as a mirror: It had been such a great game, he must want to show off to his sweetheart. Brother Cais teeth hurt. In fact, Wei Xiao didnt really want to show off. He wanted to go look at the live broadcast studio and see LU Although hed told Lu Feng not to waste money, he still wanted to see if hed said anything in particular. Sigh. Wei Xiao was a little melancholy. He hadnt been able to talk properly with the captain all day; he missed him. He hadnt felt it during the game, but this emptiness after the game could only be filled up by the captain. Chen Feng: Whos going up for the interview? Hed asked this intentionally. Otherwise, Brother Cai wouldve gone up onto the stage with just a look from him. At this time, Wei Xiao was still suffering from the bitterness of parting. He might as well accept an interview to relax. Ill go. Chen Feng nodded, Yes. Today, Wei Xiao could go up for the interview because firstly, the question about Close leaving the team had already been dealt with by Bai Cai yesterday, and it wouldnt be interesting if the host asked it again today; secondly, Quiets performance had really been brilliant today, especially that counter attack with the blood thief that had stunned the whole audience. With a topic like that to focus on, they wouldnt bring up old affairs again. Sure enough, Chen Feng had figured out the host thoroughly. When Wei Xiao came up onto the stage, she didnt think of asking any gossip questions at all. It was all God Q, the blood thief was played really well today! The host was a girl, and girls always had a natural sense of goodwill towards little brothers who looked so good. Not only was he handsome, his smile was a little wicked, and it was just all too attractive. Wei Xiao was very easygoing, Standard operations. To hell with your standard! Everyone in GOQ threw up blood. The host smiled broadly and continued asking, This standard level is really not the same as usual, especially during that last 1v3 wave. When faced with such a tough situation, how did God Q manage to turn the tables? Wei Xiao spoke very sincerely, I didnt think too much about it The host was all ears, Oh? Wei Xiao: I just did it. Host: Audience: The scrolling comments were filled with hahahahaha, and then someone started the trash talk, Be careful, GOQ, the three of you have been surrounded by Quiet! Host: Cough, your brave and fearless momentum is worth learning from. Wei Xiao nodded, There are also some details, is there a video replay here? I can tell you about it in detail The host was a little confused, ??? What was going on? Bai Cai, who was backstage, felt his heart stutter, F*ck, dont give him the video replay, absolutely dont! Ning Zhehan & Yue Wenles reactions were also, All the players whod seen the grandmasters game replay videos all sucked in a breath, wishing they could reach out their hands up in prayer and beg to be let off. Fortunately, the interview table didnt have this function. Although the host was curious, she could only try to smooth things out and say, When it comes to a replay, wed better leave it to the commentators. Wei Xiao: Alright. Whats the deal with your regretful tone? It feels like you really would blow your own horn if you were given the opportunity. Yes. The grandmasters disciples all expressed, He really can! After the game, they went out to eat as usual. Because of Brother Cais presence, Wei Xiao forced himself not to look at his cell phone. After they got to the restaurant, and everyone sat down, Wei Xiao got up, Im going to the bathroom. Bai Cai stared at him. Wei Xiao stuffed his left hand into his trouser pocket and went out, pretending not to have seen anything. Brother Cai sent him a message, Hold on, dont get carried away! Wei Xiao: Seeing that he wasnt replying, Bai Cai threatened him, Be careful about not making the captain lose interest in treatment. Wei Xiao regretted it. If hed known it would be like this, he wouldve let Brother Cai get immersed in the team pressure and worry about whether he could hold up, rather than talk to him about this issue. Bai Cai felt a little more at ease after giving his warnings, but then he saw Wei Xiaos reply, As long as the captain doesnt flirt with me, Ill be able to hold on. Brother Cai: Half a beat later, Brother Cai replied to him, What are you thinking? How could the captain flirt with you! When you were teasing him blindly during the winter training camp, the captain managed to remain unmoved and unaffected. Now In any case, Brother Cai couldnt imagine how the cold and aloof great demon king would flirt with people. Wei Xiao clicked open the live broadcast room. When he saw the pink LU, the corners of his mouth couldnt be held down at all. He made a voice call. The voice of the great demon king who would never flirt with people was so sexy it could tease people to death, Awesome. Wei Xiaos ears itched. He clutched at his cell phone and spoke in a low voice, Didnt you say you wouldnt give more gifts. Lu Feng paused, I couldnt help it. Wei Xiaos eyes curved, Theres no reason why you couldnt help it. Lu Feng: The blood thief is too attractive, I couldnt help wanting to give him gifts. Wei Xiao: F*ck! He would die from the captains sweet talk sooner or later Captain Wei Xiao tried hard to pull things back in the proper direction, Did you go there to treat your shoulder or study how to speak words of love? Lu Feng sighed, Neither. Wei Xiaos heart was itchy, Eh? Lu Feng: Im here to miss you. Wei Xiao: Lost, he lost. Wei Xiao, whod won the game, lost to his boyfriend instead! Wei Xiaos heart was still focused on proper matters. After a few sweet exchanges, he asked, You went to get a check up yesterday, howd it go? Lu Feng reassured him, Systematic physiotherapy will begin the day after tomorrow. Wei Xiao was worried, Will the physiotherapy hurt? Lu Feng: No. Wei Xiao paused briefly, then continued, You have to listen to the doctors words, and its enough to just send me voice messages when youre idle. Dont tire out your shoulder. Lu Fengs heart felt soft and warm, Its not that serious. Wei Xiao was reluctant to hang up, Is the blood thief really that attractive? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao teased him deliberately, So attractive that you couldnt help giving gifts. Lu Feng satisfied him, Because its you. Wei Xiao: !! Hed clearly been looking for sugar to eat, but when he really got it, it was so sweet that he himself couldnt stand it. In view of how he might take advantage of how there was no competition now to fly to North America overnight if the conversation continued, he could only restrain himself and hang up the phone. He didnt want to go back to the room after hanging up. He dawdled instead and sent Lu Feng a message, I want to see you. Lu Feng: Well video call when you get back to the base. Wei Xiao: No way, you should sleep. It was already very early in the morning over there. Lu Feng: Tomorrow? Wei Xiao licked his lips, Take a photo for me. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: Just one photo, let me see you. Wuwuwu, how could we have failed in that wave! I feel like I didnt make any mistakes. Take a look at my ultimate move, the blood thief was directly sent flying. I didnt mess up, either. Look at my series of linked moves, they were all full-on, okay! My arrows also caused enough damage, take a look at how much health he dropped. But It was the three from GOQ who were crying there bitterly. This restaurant was full every day, and those who didnt make a reservation would have to wait. The three of them were waiting in the waiting area, watching the game replay and crying loudly as they waited. Wei Xiao just happened to pass by. The waiter had already peeked at them several times. Did they need to go so far? It was just a game, did they have to take it so seriously? An outsider who didnt watch e-sports wouldnt understand. GOQs little jungler, Quiet isnt human. Take a look at that feather transform A light, floating voice inserted itself into the conversation with no sense of dissonance, This feather transform is just routine operation. Pay attention to my basic attacks after the feather transform. The second part of the feather transform followed by a blood ravens kiss, with a third basic attack at the same time. The passive healing effect was the key point to survival. The three people from GOQ hadnt yet realized that there was an additional person amongst them. Yeah, yeah, this passive health recovery is too accurate, it was just enough to offset the damage from my arrows. In fact, thats nothing much. The real highlight is the positioning later on. Do you see that? That made me able to avoid the collision from the death knight. Yes, yes, yes, Laozi felt that it was 100% going to hit, but he ended up dodging it! And here, you know the blood oaths passive? It can grant immunity against the full amount of damage from the target who had the most health sucked away, thats why the storm hunter couldnt kill me. Holy shit, this passive has conditions that need to be met. Did Quiet manage to meet the conditions? How could he be so calm and self-sustaining in such a short time, in such a dangerous situation? Its nothing much, its just natural talent. The three people whod realized something finally stepped out of their crying mood. They noticed that something wasnt right and turned aroundCC Wei Xiao gave them a friendly smile. The three from GOQ: .. Chapter 116: Wei Xiao:Dont worry, Im only showing it to one person.” editors: apricot & juurensha What was the most embarrassing thing in the world? Being tortured to the point of holding ones head and crying, and then when looking back, finding that the cause was right there behind you. Whats more, this wolf had snuck into the flock of sheep and told them about how hed torn into their throats with his sharp teeth for a good while. The jungler, who was the youngest in GOQ, Wu wu! Indeed, it was real crying, not just an exaggeration or an adjective. It was that he couldnt hold back his emotions and shed the hot tears of youth. Wei Xiao: GOQs jungler was aware of his own embarrassment. He wiped his tears, I I The more he wanted to explain, the more he ended up crying. Wei Xiao quickly pulled out some tissues for him, Dont cry. GOQs jungler finally managed to speak, Werent you the one who hammered me into tears? This explanation was obviously a cover up. Wei Xiao wasnt in a hurry to go back to their dining room. He crowded in by their side and sat down, Look here. The three from GOQ made room for him. Wei Xiaos fingers were long and slender, and his joints were particularly good looking. When a finger pointed at the cell phone screen, it looked like a tender bamboo shoot. The death knights operations were timely, but there wasnt enough DPS. The GOQ jungler was the one whod used the death knight. He wasnt crying anymore, But I wouldnt have been able to catch up with you if I switched forms. Wei Xiao clicked the progress bar and pulled it back, If you were standing in this position when the giant shaman controlled me, wouldnt you have had enough time to switch forms? GOQs jungler: Wei Xiao continued, After switching forms, if you started with a heavy sword attack, then a soul scream, Id have been controlled until I had to call you daddy. The three from GOQ: It was very reasonable, very sharp, but the question was: how could it be done?! Not to mention that tricky positioning C even after switching forms, with the heavy sword attack and soul scream, it would still all be useless if the enchanted state wasnt triggered! Wei Xiao replayed it again, pointing to the storm hunter and saying, This part is really great, the stepping on raindrops was very timely. GOQs marksman was confused after inexplicably getting praised. Wei Xiao: Of course, no matter how timely it was, I still wouldnt have died. Marksman-kun: There was just no way to refute him! Wei Xiao made it a point to praise the giant shaman, This ultimate move was really awesome. When I was shot up into the air by your move, I was really very happy. The four of them had been chatting together for so long that there was no feeling of estrangement anymore. They were all 18, 19 year olds and didnt think so much about such things. Wei Xiao might be flashy, but his words were really interesting. And the three people from GOQ could also feel that Wei Xiao was helping them go over the replay. Although he would start to praise himself halfway throughCCit wasnt wrong, Quiet was really very strong, and he had reason to boast! GOQs support was curious, Why were you so happy? I controlled you, yet you were happy? If Brother Cai, who understood Wei Xiao, was present, he would definitely say: Dont ask! Fellow brother, isnt it great to be alive? Unfortunately, GOQs support player didnt know this and asked the question. Wei Xiao smiled slightly, Before that, I thought you guys were going to be crappy from start to finish. Everyone from GOQ: When Wei Xiao went back to their private room contentedly, Bai Cai stared at him, Constipated? Get lost! Wei Xiao was in a good mood. He placed a bag of snacks on the table in front of Brother Cai, Gifts from next door. Bai Cai: ??? Afraid that Brother Cai would think too much about it, Wei Xiao said, After going to the toilet, I saw the three from GOQ waiting in line and chatted with them for a while. The corner of Brother Cais lips twitched, Chatted for a while? He had a bit of a bad premonition. Wei Xiao sipped his watermelon juice through the straw in his mouth, Yeah, I reviewed the game replay with them and moved them so much that they stuffed snacks at me. There was a bag of potato chips in the pile. Yue Wenle had already torn it open and was ready to start eating. Brother Cai was startled and quickly moved to stop him, Dont eat it! Yue Lele: ? Brother Cai: GOQ hates Wei Xiao to death. The snacks that they gave him have to be poisonous! There was a crunch. Yue Wenle had already started eating. Fortunately, Wei Xiao was drinking with a straw, because otherwise, he might have sprayed his drink out, F*ck your daddy, Bai Cai. Is Laozi so unlikable? Bai Cai forced Yue Wenle to spit it out, Just based on your replay reviews, who wouldnt want to poison you. Wei Xiao smiled as he scolded him, Dont destroy my clean reputation. Wei Xiao didnt stay up late that day. Before he went to bed, he held his cell phone and looked at it again and again. Finally, he carefully saved the photo into an encrypted album. He was the only one who could see this private photo of the captain! Ah, he really missed him. Wei Xiao rubbed his face against his pillow and ended up sleeping pretty well. Lu Fengs first physical therapy session was at around one oclock in the afternoon. While Wei Xiao was sleeping most soundly, hed just started the first stage of the first course of treatment. The doctor ran through a lot of precautions, and Lu Feng acknowledged them one by one. The doctor emphasized, It may be very painful. Please try to bear with it. Lu Feng nodded, Ill be in your care. After a full hour and a half, Lu Fengs entire top was soaked in sweat, and his face was as white as paper. The attending doctor was very impressed, Youre very brave. He hadnt made any complaints throughout the whole process, not even a grunt. Hed endured the whole treatment with amazing perseverance. The doctor comforted him, Well have another examination after a week. If the effects are good, theres hope that the shoulder injury will recover to 70%. Lu Fengs face was a little flushed, Thank you. The results from the preliminary examination hadnt been very optimistic. The requirements towards micro-operations in the e-sports profession were too high. This kind of trauma impacted many aspects. There were both physical and psychological factors. The difficulty was too high for a full recovery, and the doctor couldnt guarantee that. However, Lu Fengs perseverance and persistence today had touched the attending doctor. He longed to be healed and had a strong belief in his heart as well as a powerful focus on returning to the game. Even if he didnt say a word, this kind of mood had been conveyed to everyone who saw his physiotherapy session. How could fate be willing to crush someone so persistent? Because hed gone to bed early, Wei Xiao also woke up early. He opened up his eyes just after ten oclock. Wei Xiao fished out his cell phone and called Lu Feng. Lu Feng answered it quickly, Have you eaten? Wei Xiao spoke at almost the same time, How was your physiotherapy? And then, they replied at the same timeCC Havent eaten. It was alright. The two voices speaking at the same time made them both laugh. Wei Xiao simply turned on the speakerphone and went to the bathroom to wash up while chatting with Lu Feng. The two people chatted aimlessly. Although they werent together, it still seemed like they were by each others side. Powerful technology made long-distance relationships less painful, but it also seemed to be more painful in some ways. After all, if they could only write letters back and forth, the cycle between each contact would be long enough that they could go about their own lives day to day. However, calling was too casual and easy, making one want to remain in contact with each other all the time and not care about anything else. Wei Xiao urged Lu Feng to go to sleep. Lu Feng: Cant sleep. Wei Xiao curved his lips, Then accompany me to rank? He knew that Lu Feng couldnt touch the game during this period. Lu Feng: Okay. Wei Xiao took his cell phone with him to the training room and, taking advantage of how nobody else was up, openly kept the speakerphone on as he logged into the game. City B, 3U Club. Cong Yi got up early in the morning and pushed open the door to the training room. He found someone inside, Havent slept? Asleep: Cong Yi: Oh, you woke up so early? Asleep nodded. Cong Yi continued, Have you had breakfast? There are small steamed buns and preserved egg congee. The small steamed buns are a little greasy, but the preserved egg congee is pretty good. Asleep: Cong Yi: No, if you want to eat then go downstairs yourself. Asleep: Oh. This scene appeared often in the 3U base. If there was an outsider here, theyd probably be so shocked that their mouths would drop open. Who could tell them what this lazy youth who was leaning back in the e-sports chair had said? Why was it that when faced with this wordless silence, someone else could still answer so naturally? This wasnt a problem of reading lips or not, it was telepathy! Not to mention outsiders, even the insiders in 3U were obsessed with and confused about this matter. They couldnt understand Sleep God, and they understood the Cong Yi who understood Sleep God even less. In short, these two added up to the capital word CONFUSED! After Cong Yi went around for a stroll, he ultimately still went downstairs to pick up some small steamed buns, Theres no more congee. Asleep: Cong Yi: Theres none left even if you want to drink it. I cant cook it. Asleep silently picked up the small steamed bun and ate it slowly. 3Us Asleep, the strangest captain in the history of the China competition zone. Oh the last one whod held the title was Money. Moneys famous history didnt need to be mentioned, hed spent so much money it covered the sky. A captain as strange and magical as Money had actually been overtaken by Captain Asleep, which proved just how strange Asleep was. Cong Yi stood behind him, Quiet used the blood thief? Hed thought that Asleep would be ranking. He hadnt expected that he would be watching a game replay. He wasnt watching a 3U game. It was the FTW vs GOQ game from yesterday. Cong Yu looked it over and understood, This blood thief can play. After eating three small steamed buns, Asleep stopped. Hed used chopsticks the whole time and hadnt gotten any oil on his hands. After watching the video, he set down his chopsticks and logged into the game. Cong Yi saw what he saw, What a coincidence. It really was a coincidence. Wei Xiao had also just come online as Asleep logged in. The two of them were friends, and Asleep had also set up a special reminder for Quiet, so he saw him come online at a glance. Just when Wei Xiao was about to click to start queueingCC 3U.Cant Sleep: Solo? Wei Xiao was also quite surprised. He read out loud to Lu Feng as he typed. 3U.Cant Sleep: Use the blood thief. Wei Xiao: Alright. Cant Sleep: Come on. Wei Xiao: Hold on, let me start up a live broadcast. Cant Sleep: ? Wei Xiao: Dont worry, Im only showing it to one person. If it was solo, then he definitely couldnt chat easily with the captain, and there was a delay when spectating from within the game, so it was easier to open up a live broadcast for him. Cant Sleep: Who? Wei Xiao typed out these words with great joy, My captain. Cant Sleep: Wei Xiao wasnt familiar with the live broadcast app. He messed around for a while in order to get it set up, and in order to avoid being disturbed, he set up a password for the room. After giving the password to the captain, Wei Xiao said, Come on, then. Asleep invited him. After the two of them entered the game, they picked their heroes right away. Wei Xiao took the blood thief, and Asleep also took the blood thief. Wei Xiao raised his eyebrows, Not bad, I like bullheaded people like this. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiaos radar alerted him, I only like the captain. Lu Feng: Im bullheaded? Trash Talk Wei had basically met his match, Captain, I was wrong, I wont talk nonsense again! He was very quick to act coquettish. And then FTW.Close gifted FTW.Quiet 520 roses. Wei Xiaos face felt a little hot, Captain Youre using your main account. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao: What if its seen? Lu Feng: Nobodys here. There really wasnt anyone there. The room had a password on it, so passers-by couldnt get in at all. However, Wei Xiao, who wasnt very proficient with the live broadcasting business, didnt know that hed sent out a link. The live broadcast platform was linked to his Weibo account. Once the live broadcast was started up, it would share a link on Weibo. Wei Xiaos Weibo fan count wasnt low now, and as soon as everyone saw the shared link, they all rushed over. How dedicated! Quiet had started live broadcasting so early. As a result Eh, why was there a password? F*ck, why was there only one audience member in the whole studio?! xiin: uh-oh Chapter 117: Your boyfriend is getting bullied, captain! Live broadcast rooms with the privacy setting on were well protected. Outsiders could only see the room owners name and one other piece of information below thatCCAudience: 1 person. Wei Xiaos name as the room owner couldnt be changed. It was the professional ID that hed signed the contract with, so the ID FTW.Quiet was as obvious as could be. He wasnt flustered; private rooms wouldnt be recommended on the front page, and he hadnt had time to live broadcast since the start of the season, so fans wouldnt come to stalk and wait, and nobody should be able to find out his little secret. However Brother Xiao, whose plan was flawed, had never thought that the live broadcast platform and Weibo would join hands to pit him. Fans flocked to the studio, wanting to watch God Qs live broadcast, excitedly wanting to chat with him about how to play so wonderfully with the blood thief. They came and were stopped at the door. It was enough that everyone was stopped, but there just had to be someone inside the room! That made it worse. Curiosity was like a pot of hot oil. It seemed very calm, but as soon as a drop of water was dropped in, it would be enough to make it explode. The fans blew up! Who is it? Who is being favored by our God Q? Ahhhhh, Ive been waiting for a month since the opening game, but this is what I get? Which little seductress is it? Report your name, Im going to solo with you! God Q is only 19, right? He already has a girlfriend? And he spoils her so much? So jealous, so jealous. God Q, I want to go in, let me in Previous poster, I suspect that youre talking dirty. Be a little more confident and simply get rid of the suspect part of that sentence. Weibo was bustling with activity. The fans couldnt send scrolling comments in the live broadcast room, so they simply started going wild under the shared Weibo link. At ten oclock in the morning, they didnt go to school and didnt go to work. Instead, they stalked Weibo and played at being Sherlock Holmes. One popular comment after another floated up to the top. Some guessed that it was his girlfriend, others guessed that it was LU, others that it was Brother Cai, and there were even those who thought it was Little Ning, Yue Wenle, Queen Chen, or even the men that the grandmaster had hammered before. The twin junglers girls flew straight in and expressed, Its Close! They were immediately drowned out, Wake up, Close doesnt watch any live broadcasts. Dont get all excited just because of one LU. That cant possibly be Close. Make way, CP fans, stop blocking the way for the detectives. Password, password, big bosses, quickly come and solve the case! The twin junglers had started late, and their presence wasnt grand enough. They ended up crowded into a small corner by everyone else. The comment that had guessed that it was Close only had 520 likes. Hey, 520? Interesting. But no matter how noisy Weibo got, it didnt affect Wei Xiao whod activated the do not disturb mode. He was very immersed in his solo with Asleep. The blood raven thief wasnt a popular talent, but professional players would still practice it appropriately. Wei Xiao had honed his own against Lu Feng. When the two of them soloed, other than support heroes, they would even work their way through the marksman and mages, let alone the blood raven thief that belonged to the thief department. The blood raven thief had two legendary skins. One was Wei Xiaos tuxedo, top hat, and black walking stick, and the other was a wild clowns outfit with a multi pointed hat, long boots, and a candy cane walking stick that had a bloody crow standing on it. One was the minimalist aesthetic, and the other was wild. It was very interesting when they both stood together in the canyon. Within five minutes into the start of the game, the fighting was already white hot. When it came to solo between the same talent, it was all about personal details. Dont judge Asleep based on how he was always drowsy in real life. Once he entered the game, it was like his second personality awakened. How lifeless he was in reality was balanced out by how crazy he was in the game. It was like all the energy hed saved up in the 3D world was all vented out in the canyon. Wei Xiao was controlled by Asleeps blood ravens kiss and couldnt move. Asleep obviously wouldnt let off such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; with the third skill ravens fall paired up with a basic attack, a set of explosive damage smashed over, leaving Wei Xiao at critical health. Lu Feng laughed briefly. Wei Xiao saw that he was about to die, but his mouth was still as cocky as ever, Your boyfriend is getting bullied, captain, but youre still laughing. Lu Feng didnt say much and sent him another batch of roses. Wei Xiao was amused, If you flirt with me again, Im really going to die. His mouth might say that, but his fingers were very steady. When Asleeps last basic attack came, Wei Xiaos controlled state was over. He instantly clicked on the second skill feather transform, using the two movement cooldowns to pull away, leaving only a few scarlet raven feathers on the ground. Asleep had expected him to retreat, so he also used the same feather transform to chase over, and the clowns candy cane was about to hit Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao dodged to the side, launching his ultimate move blood oath and making raven feathers cover the sky across the canyon. Asleep raised his eyebrows. Cong Yi: You should retreat. Asleep didnt retreat. Instead, he used the second part of his feather transform to rush back and also started up his own blood oath. The blood raven thiefs ultimate move had a powerful health sucking mechanism. Not only did it recover the users health, it also sucked up other peoples health like mad. Asleep wanted to go up hard against Wei Xiao, thinking that since he had more health, he would fight to the death against Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao laughed, Still too young. He didnt move. Under the rain of poisonous candy, he continued to use his blood oath against Asleep. System AnnouncementCC Quiet killed Cant Sleep. Asleep: Cong Yi, who was sitting to the side eating melon seeds, Lost your head there. Asleep: I like it. Cong Yi tsked, Fine, fine, fine, I know you like Quiet, youre happy even when he hammers you to death. Asleep: In that wave just now, Asleep really shouldnt have gone up against Wei Xiao. It was the same ultimate move, the same blood sucking, but there was one detail that Wei Xiao had that Asleep didnt have. Before he fled with his feather transform, hed marked the lane soldiers around him. In this situation, he gained a bonus with his blood sucking when he turned on blood oath. Asleep indeed had more health to start with, but he could only absorb Wei Xiaos blood. It was like two vampires. One had countless blood bags around him, while the other could only drink the enemys blood. The two sides had the same blood sucking rate and upper limit, but obviously, there was a good chance that the one with the most blood bags would win. After blood oath ended, Wei Xiao tossed out a third skill, and the blood ravens called out, turning into a blade that landed on Asleeps body. Wei Xiao asked Lu Feng, In that wave just now, what would you do if it was you, captain? Lu Feng knew what he meant. If Asleep hadnt chosen to retreat, would there still be a way to fight? There really was Lu Feng: Before your control was released, I would first focus on brushing out two basic attacks. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up. He got it. The blood raven thiefs passive had a healing effect. If Asleep had hit two regular attacks before chasing him, then Asleep would only have to hit him once when he chased over in order to activate it. With this bit of health, even if Wei Xiao had more blood bags, Asleep would still be able to last until the end of the blood oath, and then send Wei Xiao to his death with a blood ravens kiss. Life and death, victory and defeat, the difference was often found in an instant of thought. However, this sliver of thought was a mountain that countless professional players had been struggling to overcome for several years. Theyd just finished a game when the door to the training room opened. Brother Cais voice arrived even before he did, Big ancestor, what kind of trouble are you stirring up now! Wei Xiao didnt have time to hang up the phone and simply covered up his cell phone. Bai Cai didnt pay attention to these details. Hed woken up early in the morning and started up his work as the gossip Emperor as usual, but unexpectedly, his eyes were hit by an earthquake as soon as he started browsing around. Gossip Emperor, Gossip Emperor, heres some material! Quiets private meeting with his mysterious lover, are they male or female? An exclusive live broadcast room, only for you. Come and guess what the password is! This large pile of sentences that were similar to headlines were really eye-catching. Not only was Brother Cais eyes caught, but his heart leapt, too. What kind of evil was Beast Wei stirring up again? What kind of rumor was this so early in the morning? Did he feel that he wasnt popular enough? The Gossip Emperor investigated the situation by tracking down the clues and arrived at Wei Xiaos Wei Xiao. And then He stuffed his feet into his slippers and rushed down to the training room in his pajamas. If you dont f*cking know how to start up a live broadcast, then dont stream. Can you not make such a low-level mistake? Wei Xiao: ??? What was wrong with it? Hed just opened up a private studio. How come Brother Cai knew about it? Bai Cai directly shoved the cell phone into his face so that Wei Xiao could see the situation clearly. His own Weibo had automatically generated a share link. The forwarding comments for the link had already broken through 300,000. Wei Xiao: Doesnt everyone say that theres no morning in e-sports? Are these people crazy? Bai Cai: Isnt it because you, the great God Q, is doting on someone so early in the morning?! Wei Xiao blinked. Bai Cai showed him the popular comments. If he hadnt looked, he wouldnt have known, but now that he looked it was more spectacular than a novel. There was no limit to the pits in peoples brains. Even the moons surface should feel inferior to it, with suggestions of 985 beautiful girlfriends, sweet and indulgent love with gold master LU, grandmaster and disciples exclusive secret chat There was also another one with a high amount of likesCCjungler king and little wife, you rank up in points and Ill accompany you. The jungler king referred to Wei Xiao, and the little wife was Brother Cai. Both of them saw it at the same time, and they both shivered simultaneously. Bai Cai: God Q, may I ask who youre doting on so early in the morning! Wei Xiao: Bai Cai: Confess frankly, and Ill be lenient. If you resist, Ill be strict and report it to the captain later on. Youll find yourself in even more trouble than you bargained for! Wei Xiaos expression was complicated. Brother Cai couldnt spare the attention to care about these things. This was a public relations crisis, and if the captain came back, he would be implicated if he couldnt report the situation properly to him. Get out of the way, let me look for myself. If he didnt want to say it, then forget it. He leaned over to see who the only member of the audience in the live broadcast studio was. And then Wei Xiao confessed honestly, Im soloing with Asleep, and the captain couldnt sleep, so he wanted to take a look at my level. Brother Cai Was going to have a breakdown! It took a long time for Bai Cai to get his voice back, It really-really is the captain? Wei Xiao was puzzled, Do you have to be so surprised? Bai Cai: No, thats not it, this, um. Brother Cai couldnt be blamed for his surprise. Close had been in this profession for four years, and had never been seen in anyones live broadcast studio before. Even if he was taking along a newcomer, he would just double queue with them. The newcomer would open a live broadcast room, and theyd only play for one or two games at most. When the audience count got to a certain point, he would leave. How could the head of FTW who had to deal with a host of problems every day, the solo great demon king who had countless fans, quietly go to become a spectator in someone elses live broadcast room? This His imagination was insufficient! Bai Cais heart thumped, and he thought of something else, You didnt mess around, did you? He didnt know that Wei Xiao and the captain were still on the phone together. Wei Xiao clarified quickly, What are you hinting at? I didnt mess around at all! This was spoken for the captain to hear. Bai Cai spoke seriously, I know that its hard having a crush on someone, but you need to calm down and not try everything you can think of to seduce the captain early in the morning. Wei Xiao: Bai Cais tone was filled with I understand you, You normally dont get up before noon, but now youre soloing at 10 oclock in the morning. If you arent deliberately looking for the captain, then what are you doing? How should Wei Xiao explain this matter? He had indeed deliberately looked for the captain, and there was also some seduction, but there was no need to say try everything you can think of. Bai Cai even felt sorry for Asleep, And Brother Asleep cant stay up all day long. Having you pull him up to solo with him so early in the morning cant have been easy for him. Wei Xiao really couldnt stop Bai Cais brain from coming up with pits. Even ten meteorites wouldnt be enough to block it. Bai Cai came closer to see the room more clearly, and then Old Wei, can you be a little less shameless! Wei Xiao: ??? What now?! Bai Cai: Do you even need to coax and cheat the captain like this? Wei Xiao was really confused, How did I cheat the captain? Hed really coaxed him, and he wished that he could coax him day and night. Bai Cai pointed to the screen and spoke indignantly, Does the captain know what 1314 means? So you just cheated him into sending you 1314 roses?! xiin: feeling second hand embarrassment for Bai Cai already Chapter 118: The little secret in 1560. What should Wei Xiao say? The captain not only knew what 1314 meant, he also knew what 520 meant, and he even knew what 520 and 1314 together meant. But could he say that? In fact, he could say it. But Wei Xiao was afraid that hed make Brother Cai go into seclusion if he said it, and hed become a real vegetable in the upcoming games. Brother Cai only thought of something after the fact, Brat, you turned off the mic, right?! Wei Xiao reassured him, Dont worry, I didnt turn it on. The microphone in the live broadcast studio wasnt on, it was just that he hadnt hung up the phone call with the captain. Brother Cai breathed a sigh of relief and continued to lecture him, Whats the use of doing these things? Coaxing the captain to give you 1314, will that really mean that you guys will be together forever? Brother Xiao, who was inexplicably getting scolded like a primary school student: It really could mean that. After messing around back and forth, isnt the one who will suffer still yourself? I know that having a secret crush hurts, but you have to hold steady. I dont think that the captain isnt interested in you either, and after my years of observation, the captain really might not favor women Wei Xiao looked at him, How did you even notice that? Bai Cai puffed up his chest proudly and was filled with confidence, Shouldnt you take a look at who the Gossip Emperor is. Wei Xiao: Sorry, Brother Cai, youre the one who spoke about the Gossip Emperor, I wasnt the one who sold you out! Bai Cai: Ive done so many CPs, how can I not tell? Wei Xiao: Like hell you noticed something. Bai Cai really treated his fellow brother well. He basically dug out his heart and lungs for him, Seriously, do you know what goes on between two men? Wei Xiao froze for a moment. Brother Cai understood when he saw him like this, Wait, let me He hadnt finished his words when he saw a line of text pop up on the screenCC FTW.Close: Where are you? Wei Xiao saw it too. He quickly pretended to open up the microphone, I went to the bathroom. Brother Cai breathed a sigh of relief and gestured to him: Steady. Wei Xiao secretly put the cell phone away in his pocket. Bai Cai would explode on the spot if he saw the length of the call. In the games private chat, Asleep sent out a question mark. Wei Xiao explained it briefly. The mic had already been turned on, so Brother Cai naturally wouldnt continue yakking on. He was very polite as he greeted Lu Feng, Good evening, captain! He even remembered the time difference. On the scrolling comments: Good morning. Brother Cai was smiling broadly. He had no idea that he was walking on a tightrope. When he saw that Wei Xiao was about to solo with Asleep again, Bai Cai said, Since you sent out a Weibo message, you should deal with it. Cancel the password and let the fans see that the only audience member was the captain He sent out the Weibo link again and was just about to ask the captain to clear out the number 1314 when he saw that FTW.Close had gifted Wei Xiao with another 246 roses. That was great. There didnt seem to be any problem with the number 1560. Brother Cais concerns were actually reasonable. Although Wei Xiao didnt want the fans to disturb the private world between him and his captain, there was already a billion kilowatt lightbulb in the form of Brother Cai lighting up the entire world, so adding another few millions of fans wouldnt matter. Whats more, the matter had gotten so big, and it should be clarified. The only audience member was the captain. Although this was beyond the logic that the Sherlock Holmes fans had come up with, it was still reasonable. Wei Xiao and Asleeps solo games were very valuable. They were equivalent to a one-on-one training match. There werent any teams who would take the training match as something to live broadcast. Everyone understood that. Someone in the 3U teams side must be staring at Wei Xiaos operations, and when it came to FTW, Lu Feng was overseas. If he wanted to watch the battle situation in real time, then opening up a live broadcast room was the best choice. The password was there to protect the teams killer mace, which was also something that could be explained. It had to be said that Brother Cai was actually very thoughtful and had managed these things properly. If it hadnt been for that lecture, he might have made a lot more extra money besides the fee from walking the dog every day. Now The Gossip Emperor had to fend for himself. As soon as the password on the live broadcast room on Wei Xiaos side was cancelled, countless people poured in Its open, its open, its open! Who was the only member of the audience? Which little slutt unusually brilliant person, losers are always in the wrong, Im just talking wildly, dont take anything seriously As soon as this kid saw the ID of the supposed little slut, his fingers seemed to gain thoughts of their own, and he typed out a whole bunch of random things! Countless Sherlock Holmes fans were shocked. How could it be Close? How could it be the great demon king?! Could it be, maybe, did it mean The twin junglers CP reared their heads again, Ahhhh, its real, theyre real! Thousands of miles apart, hearts connected, the CP I ship is scattering sugar all over the sky! Brother Cai ignored the countless scrolling comments and acted as a commentator, Thank you everyone for your attention. Next, lets watch 3Us Sleep God and our jungler kings spectacular solo game As a person whod been interviewed all year round, Brother Cai knew how to explain the matter clearly in a few words. With this mouth, he could easily become a well-known commentator, and earning a million a year wasnt just a dream. Everyone soon calmed down. It turned out to be a training match. It turned out that there was a supervisor. It turned out that it was the great demon king training the little demon king. Sigh, and theyd been so excited that theyd already made it halfway through the universe. There were still little Holmeses who wouldnt give up so easily, I dont think that its that simple. Fellow sisters, take a look at that number. 1560? Speaking of which, it turns out that the great demon king also knows how to send gifts. You really see everything when you live for a long time. Is there anything special about 1560? Try dividing it by three Holy sh*t! Sisters, thats amazing! Ahhhhh, I get it, I get it, this is too damned sweet I know that its just a coincidence, but I want to cry so loudly! This was just the shrill screams from the CP fan group. The straight men in the scrolling comments had already had their attention caught up by the solo going on in the canyon. Quiet and Asleep were two dark horses in the China competition zone. Their solo game had to be incredibly exciting. Whats more, there would be a competition between 3U and FTW next week. Everyone was already looking forward to it, and having a solo at this time was nothing less than a pre-match warm-up! Quiet took the death knight! Quiet really is a jungler kaleidoscope. Is there any talent he cant play? After all, hes someone who was taught by the great demon king himself. He can do it all. Theyre in the game! Asleep took the blood thief. Interesting, FTW vs GOQ yesterday was also the death knight against the blood raven thief. Reasonably speaking, the death knight has a huge advantage over thieves, but GOQs death knight was just like a dead man walking. The death knight was dead to start with. Oh, no wonder he died like that. The scrolling comments started up their daily hating. Bai Cai turned on his computer and picked up his post as the room management, blocking and banning the bad comments. With the cancellation of the password and the surge of traffic, the live stream platform soon pushed the room into the recommendations. It was almost eleven oclock now, and the people in the e-sports circle woke up one after another. Quite a few people came over to watch the excitement. Amongst them was no lack of team captains. For example, TPTs study god C veteran C captain C Fu Li sat in front of the computer and watched the live broadcast. Eurostar yawned as he went downstairs. He glanced at the coffee cup beside the captain sleepily, Let me drink. Fu Lis left hand held an 11 inch iPad pro, and there was a second generation pencil in his right hand. He wore gold wire glasses that hung on his high nose as he stared at the game and took notes, Oh. Eurostar took a sip, Pffft! He covered his mouth, then sprayed it all out in the trash bin. What the hell is this! Eurostar looked at the unknown liquid in the coffee cup incredulously. Fu Li didnt even blink, Black coffee with goji. Eurostar: . He was a fool. How could he dare to touch the captains cup? And he even dared to take a sip? Wasnt he simply trying to shorten his own lifespan! Fu Li set down the iPad and calmly took a sip from the unknown health liquid, Since youre awake, come and have a look. Eurostar went to the beverage cabinet to find himself a bottle of sweet milk to relieve the bitterness in his mouth, then leaned over and said, Its so early in the morning, what are you looking at? The current marksman dark horse of the China competition zone, Euro God, was a standard gossip spectator. He gnawed at his straw, These two big daddies started soloing so early in the morning? They really were daddies. The death knight, the blood raven thief, the shadow thief, the immortal thief These were all jungler daddies for his damned crisp marksman talents. The great demon king was the real daddy that he had to kneel down to every time he met him. Asleep and Quiet were the stepfathers who were gradually rising up. Fu Li was already used to this little coward, Look at Quiet. Eurostar dragged over a chair and sat down. He stared at the match, How can the death knight be pressured so badly? Wait a minute, Quiets death knight can be beaten like this by Asleeps blood thief? Is it that I havent woken up yet, or is it that captains coffee is poisonous, causing me to have hallucinations Fu Li remained silent. He picked up the iPad and started marking down the key points. Eurostar hadnt been mistaken. In this solo game, Wei Xiaos death knight had completely fallen into a disadvantage and was being pressured and hammered by Asleep the whole way. From a talent restraint perspective, when it came to the knight type talents, if talents that tended towards support werent counted, they basically all had the advantage against thieves. This was especially the case for the death knight, which could be said to be the thiefs daddy. In a situation where the players strength gap wasnt very large and their gold situation was about the same, anyone who could play it well could chase after thieves until they had to run. That was to say that in this game of solo, Wei Xiao should be able to pressure Asleep. However, the situation was now reversed. Eurostar was very curious, What happened, is the grandmaster not playing seriously? Fu Li: Hes very serious. Eurostar raised his eyebrows, If hes playing seriously, how can he be beaten by Sleepy into hiding everywhere like this? He had to be playing around. Back then, why had Eurostar stopped playing top-lane? It was because hed clearly taken a talent that had a huge advantage against the grandmaster, but hed ended up beaten like a grandson by the grandmaster. He was going to be a grandson anyway, so he might as well run desperately into the arms of the marksman so that his grandson status was reasonable. Fu Lis white pencil pointed briefly at the tablet, Keep watching. The excitement was yet to come. It wasnt only Eurostar who was puzzled. The audience in the live broadcast room were already scolding and cursing. Whats this? Does Quiet not know how to play the death knight? I really thought he could play anything, yet as a result, hes only obsessed with thieves? Reasonably speaking, its hard to accept that a jungler cant play death knight. There were those who were a little sharper, I always feel that something is strange somewhere. Quiets death knight isnt played that badly, its just Is he taking it easy on Asleep? Is that necessary? I dont understand If hes not going to play the game seriously like this, then whats the point in starting up the live broadcast? Yeah, its a waste of everyones time. Only a few people understood Wei Xiaos intentions. For example, the three people from GOQ whod been given a teaching session yesterday. The three of them gathered around one computer to watch it together. GOQs jungler: Am I seeing an illusion Support: I dont think so. Marksman: GOQs jungler: Wuwuwu, the grandmaster going to give me a real demonstration! Support: I feel that you arent that important. Marksman: I feel that he just wants to In the 15th minute of the game, the live broadcast rooms scrolling comments was all filled up withCCholy sh*t! Wei Xiaos lips curved, I didnt have a chance to go over the replay during the interview, but theres an opportunity now. Im going to show everyone how a desperate death knight with low farm can fight against the blood thief. After giving the blood raven thief 15 minutes to completely balance out the innate talent restraint, the death knights killing intent soared up to the skies. Chapter 119: Bai Cai was forced to take action. As soon as these words came out, the people who were watching the live broadcast: Shit! Only the three from GOQ had different reactions: Sure enough. And there were those who didnt know the situation, Review? What replay? Its yesterdays game, in FTWs first game against GOQ, Quiet used the blood thief and surrounded three people from GOQ. GOQs mood was complicated when they saw this comment. They wanted to refute it, but they didnt have anything to refute it with. Yet if they didnt refute it QAQ! A group of fans whod watched the competition gave a general summary of the situation, making it a point to emphasize the final interview. Whats more, they directly repeated Quiets words exactly as hed said them, without getting a single word wrong. Those who didnt know were shocked, and those who knew had their memories refreshed. They looked at the live broadcast taking place right in front of them and felt that this experience was quite unique. How is this a jungler king? Hes clearly the king of cocky talk! You can be strong, but my Q is cocky and strong. A variety of slogans were flying around, and amongst them were also haters, Who doesnt know how to boast? Itll be funny when he screws up. He even wants to give a demonstration; isnt he just using his mouth and talking blindly? Sitting and waiting for him to screw up. Hell definitely screw up. Wei Xiao didnt look at the chaotic scrolling comments at all. He had a good memory, and hed also helped GOQ to over the replay yesterday, so he remembered the farm difference between the death knight and blood thief at the timeCCalmost 2000 gold. In a MOBA game, farm was very important. The so-called farm gap referred to the difference in gold between the two sides. Wei Xiaos farm had been 2000 gold higher than that of yesterdays death knight, which meant he had one more full piece of gear. One additional piece of finished gear more than doubled his attributes, which was also what had given him the power to take down three kills in a 1v3. Now, Asleeps blood raven thief had 2000 more gold than him, basically reproducing yesterdays match. What he wanted to show off was precisely how to win the game from GOQs perspective! It was coming. The blood raven thief in the clowns clothing came out of the grass, and the death knight in its heavy attack form was coated in a cold, black aura. He cut across with a long blade, the special effect from the heavy blade attack creating roiling, hollow faces as he charged at the blood raven thief who had no way to resist! Asleeps reaction speed was very fast. He used to feather transforms to pull back and avoid the attack. At the same time, he tossed out the blood ravens kiss, trying to counter-control Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao had obviously expected his reaction. He switched forms instantly and summoned up the hell horse. In the moment when he mounted, his mount stepped on flames and charged at the blood raven thief. There was a bang! Red and black special effects appeared on the screen. Ravens fall smashed onto Wei Xiaos head. The death knight took advantage of the horses high speed and flexibility to reduce the number of marks and simultaneously leave a magic mark on Asleep. Everything happened so fast that the audience watching the live broadcast were all dazzled. The skill releases and linkages were too fast. The seamlessly integrated basic attacks were too accurate, and there were special effects flying everywhere across the sky. They just felt that the canyon on the screen had been magnified infinitely, and the death knight and the blood raven thief had become living people, fighting for the final victory with their life and death at stake! Brother Cai couldnt help himself and started a commentary, The death knight has switched forms, and the heavy forms forced control has grasped the blood raven thief by the throat! The blood raven thief isnt backing away at all. When the control ended, he used blood oath to draw blood and protect his life! Not good! The death knights magic marks are filled up. As long as he uses his third skill, soul cry, the blood raven thiefs blood oath will become ineffective. He did it! The damage caused by the blood raven thats been enchanted is now invalid. Asleeps blood oath came up empty! The death knight only needed to use their skills and basic attacks to enchant their enemy. Once they used the soul cry while in their heavy attack form, they could summon the opponents soul and cause them to enter an enchanted state for one second. All damage dealt to their opponents while a hero was in the enchanted state was invalid. When other heroes damage was rendered invalid, at most it simply meant that they couldnt deal damage. But when the blood raven thiefs blood oath was rendered invalid, that was enough to kill them. The blood oath had a dual effect. It would absorb the enemys blood and restore the heros health. Now that it was invalid, it meant that Asleep couldnt recover his health! The blood raven thief that had already been dragged down to a critical state System AnnouncementCC Quiet killed Cant Sleep. The death knight made a beautiful sword flourish, then drove the hell horse all the way to Asleeps resurrection crystal. Victory! Wei Xiao perfectly demonstrated a reversal in adversity! In the scrolling comments: Cool! Holy shit, hes really good, this man really is both cocky and strong! He didnt mess up, the haters should come out and accept their death! The haters hurriedly switched sides and became fans for three seconds, God Q is badass! They were leaving, they were leaving, their faces really hurt. 3Us training room. Asleep: Cong Yi didnt say anything. 3Us mid-laner, Li Chun, came downstairs just then. He blinked and asked, Whats wrong with the captain? Cong Yi translated perfectly, Hes closing himself up. Li Chun: ??? The Brother Sleep who normally might die if he spoke more than one word opened up his mouth and said, Im not. Li Chun: ! This young fellow was startled, and even thought he was dreaming. Cong Yi spread out his hands. So was he closing himself up or not? Was there a mistake with Cong Yis translation, or was Asleep saying something that didnt match his heart? Cough, Li Chunchun didnt dare to guess. Wei Xiao was in the midst of explaining in the live broadcast studio, Thanks to Brother Sleep for his perfect cooperation. Did you see that? The magic marks should be stacked up quickly, and forms should be switched seamlessly so that the soul cry effect can be maximized. Oh, ordinary players shouldnt try to learn this. Those in the passers-by games wont have blood raven thieves with Asleeps god-like hand speed. Sleep fans were in a complicated mood: They were very happy, the grandmaster seemed to be praising their Sleep like hell! A message popped up in the private chat channelCC Asleep: Again. Wei Xiao had ulterior motives, Is your Yiyi there? Asleep: Yes. Disgusting. Sleep Gods senior fans helped translate in the scrolling comments: God Q, our Sleep is saying that Yiyi is there, but you shouldnt call him in such a disgusting manner. It wasnt the first day that Wei Xiao had gotten to know Asleep, and he did understand him: Okay, Sleep-sleep. Asleep: The Sleep fans: Why is it that our Sleep doesnt say that its disgusting? He only allows God Q to call himself Sleep-sleep, but he doesnt allow him to call Cong Yi: Yiyi? Stop it, Laozi is a fan of the childhood sweethearts CP, everyone else should get lost! Dont tear apart my CP, my twin junglers ship is as real as gold and silver! Wei Xiao continued typing, My familys vegetable is here too, how about having a doubles game? Brother Cai: ! What? What vegetable, what game?! Bai Cai looked at him in horror. Because they hadnt turned on the camera, Wei Xiao turned to give him a look. But he fluttered his eyes too much, and Brother Vegetable deeply suspected that he was showing off his long eyelashes. Brother Vegetable used his cell phone to type out a message and showed it to him, Dont mess with me, I dont want to play a doubles game with Asleep and Cong Yi. What was he thinking? These two were the champions of last years domestic doubles competition and the global runner ups. How obsessed was he, to want to battle with the two of them?! Wei Xiao ignored him and said in the live broadcast room, Our Brother Vegetable is eager to give it a try, he wants to compete with God Yi. Brother Cai: ??? He wasnt typing anymore. He directly used his mouth to shape the words: Wei Xiao, f*ck your daddy! Wei Xiao pretended not to see and therefore not to know anything, Our Brother Vegetable is really like this. Hes a very outstanding good man and particularly wants to show off his strength. Yes, yes, yes, super handsome! Brother Vegetable has always been handsome, hes the second most handsome in FTW, got it? Whos the first? Of course its our captain. Me? Im not handsome. At most, I can only be considered cool. You guys can call me Cool Brother Wei. Brother Cai: Nobody was praising you, yet you can still do a standup crosstalk on your own. Wei Xiaoxiao, what are you doing playing e-sports professionally? What are you doing studying at university? How about quickly going to find a master to learn from and make your debut at the Spring Festival Gala! Far away in North America, Lu Feng had muted his side of the call a long time ago. Otherwise, his short laugh wouldve scared Brother Vegetable into diving under the table. It was eleven oclock in the evening there, but Lu Feng wasnt sleepy at all. He listened to Wei Xiaos voice as he dealt with documents that had been sent over from China, and the corners of his mouth had always remained curved up. Lu Feng knew why Wei Xiao wanted to play a doubles game with 3U. At the solo level, Wei Xiao could crush the entire China Glory circle, and he could crush them all mercilessly. After all, at Wei Xiaos level, if he really were to solo in the global competition, he would still be likely to rank near the top, even when faced with players like Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun. At this level, more solo was meaningless. Wei Xiao was obviously worried about the 5v5 game they would be playing in a week. FTW vs 3U. Wei Xiao could suppress Asleep, but Asleep wasnt a single person in a 5v5 game. 3Us team cohesion was very strong. Perhaps because their captain was too taciturn, it had led to Cong Yi being too good at reading peoples hearts. Although Asleep was 3Us captain, their main commander was Cong Yi. A support commander had great advantages because they had the widest range of vision across the entire canyon, their operations required the least energy, and the support position was the one that moved around the map the most frequently. In many teams, the support player was the deputy commander even if they werent the main commander. FTW had tried to get Bai Cai to command for a while, but back then, Bai Cai was a support player with no soul and didnt take responsibility for anything. He was a very unaffected youth, and there was no way to force him to do anything. Later on, Wei Xiao had entered the team. Lu Feng and Chen Feng never said it specifically, but in fact, they wanted to hand over the position of commander to him. Wei Xiaos character was very suited to be a commander. His decisiveness, agility, and real-time analysis abilities were all remarkable. When coupled with Lu Fengs support and oversight, it wasnt a big problem. But, if If Bai Cai was able to take on the role of deputy commander, then FTWs team cohesion would go up to a higher level. Lu Feng set down his notebook and looked at the studio. Although he couldnt see Wei Xiao, he seemed to be able to see his bright, black eyes. In his eyes, there was endless energy and matching wisdom. Very beautiful. Brother Vegetable was pushed up to the forefront just like this and entered a doubles game room. The live broadcast was on, so our God Bai had to hold up his dignity even if it was all an act, What are we using. Wei Xiao was amused into laughter by his appearance that looked like he was about to cry yet still was still putting on airs, Ill listen to Brother Cai. Bai Cai glared at him, and his mouth moved: Like hell you listen to me! There was a BP section for doubles games, and the banning was more ruthless than in 5v5. The bans affected entire classes Yes, the eleven classes in Glory corresponded to over 140 talents. Banning classes mean that one ban could remove over 10 talent specs. For example, the thief class had 12 talents. If the other side banned it, then none of the 12 talents could be selected. Fortunately, there were only four ban positions. If it was like 5v5 with six ban positions, then it would be enough to ban people into seclusion. However, this was just a private friendly match, and it was also being broadcast. Everyone just banned the classes casually and werent so careful about it. Then, Bai Cai saw that the other sides Cong Yi had banned priests. Brother Cai: The God Bai who started from priests grew angry and banned the shamans with the next ban! God Yis shamans were excellent enough to soar up to heaven, and it was no worse than Li Heran from South Korea. This doubles game hadnt even started yet, but the scent of gunpowder from both sides was already strong. The scrolling comments were laughing loudly and trying to incite Wei Xiao, God Q, ban thieves! If theyre not going to act human, then we can be shameless too! Wei Xiao: That wont do, I still need to maintain my dignity. Then, he banned the druids. Glory had eleven classes, but only three of the classes focused on supportCC Priests, shamans, and druids. Bai Cai was shocked: Do you even f*cking want me to play or not! All of the heroes that he knew how to play had been banned, what the hell was he supposed to play! However, the Wei Xiao who wanted his dignity was very calm, Dont panic, everyone, Caicai said that he wants to use the medicine warlock to carry. Brother Caicai: ??? It was just an entertainment game, why did Laozi have to use a talent with such a high level of difficulty! Were you really treating Laozi like Yan Jiang? It was as though Wei Xiao could see right through to his heart. He blew out another rainbow fart, What are you talking about? How could Brother Cai be a little God Yan? My Brother Cai is the new light of support! Bai Cai: No matter how much he wanted to pretend to be calm, he couldnt hold on anymore. Bai Cai spoke darkly, Can we not try to find trouble on the moon? Light of support?! Was Captain Yan dead, or had Captain Li retired, or had the translation machine stopped working?! Brother Cai was a small white cabbage. Why should he go and offend so many big bosses! Wei Xiao had also become a translation machine, Its my slip of the tongue, what light of support? Our vegetable is the god of support! Bai Cai: What did it mean to be forced to take action? Just take a look at Brother Cai. And it had been written in capitals, outlined in gold and highlighted with lightning. Chapter 120: Lu Feng: I didnt pick him up. Fortunately, Asleep showed mercy and didnt ban the knights. The knights were a relatively miscellaneous profession. It had damage dealing talents like the death knight who could go up to the top-lane and play jungler, and it also had good support talents like the holy paladin who could tank and heal. There were a total of four ban positions. Three had been used on support classes, so there werent many choices remaining. Cong Yi could pick first. He naturally didnt back down and locked in the holy paladin. Bai Cais lips twitched. Wei Xiao comforted him, What are you afraid of? We dont need a holy paladin. Brother Cais inner thoughts: Im really f*cking scared, I really f*cking want to use it, I really f*cking But on the surface: Mm. There was a hint of panic under his calm voice. Picking talents in their doubles game went by very quickly. Cong Yi took the holy paladin, and Asleep took the berserker thief. Brother Cais mouth was still twitching as he took the medicine warlock, and Wei Xiao locked in the immortal thief. Based on the line-up FTWs two talents could be hammered into little brothers by 3Us holy berserker combination. Bai Cai couldnt help but use his lips to mouth out: What are you doing taking the immortal thief? Isnt the shadow thief attractive to you? Wei Xiao translated for him, Hey, I wanted to take the shadow thief, but Brother Cai said no, because hes going to carry this game. Bai Cai: The other sides God Yi was a god level translator, but youre like a damned translator from hell! Fortunately, Asleep hadnt encountered Wei Xiao in his childhood. Otherwise, he wouldve trained up a level ten bratty mouth and could even become a commentator! The scrolling comments were filled with: 666666 Waiting to see the medicine warlocks badass moves! I saw it before when they played against OD in the winter training camp, God Bai was super handsome then! Bai Cai swept an eye over this super handsomeCCdamn it, his head could be broken, but he couldnt lose his dignity, and his reputation couldnt be destroyed even once! Doubles and solo games were very different. In solo games, there was only yourself, and the person alone was at ease, playing without fetters and doing everything by themselves. However, there were fetters in a doubles game. Teammates were tied together, and they could be either a powerful support or a stumbling block. How much one plus one added up to depended on the tacit understanding between the two players in the field. In fact, the audience was just watching the excitement. They even felt that this was a broadened solo between two people and didnt care about the cooperation between them. They just wanted to see a solo show between four people. Only experts could see the difference. TPT base. Eurostar snorted, Asleep really loves the berserker thief. In fact, the berserker thief wasnt very suitable for doubles because of its passive. It was more suited for playing in team fights because only by harvesting kills would it be able to build up its passive effect and deal out maximum damage. A doubles game only had two people, and they couldnt stack up a maximum passive. Fu Li: He feels that an unequal contest brings no honor to the victor. Eurostar: Does he have to go so far? Brother Cai and Quiet have been playing together for many years. Fu Li: A doubles team with no competition experience is vulnerable. Eurostar thought about his own captains pile of data models and shut up, Alright then. His captain was right, and he was right even when he was wrong. In any case, he definitely wouldnt refute him as the nightmare of having been dragged over to stare at pieces of data for hours one after another was still right in front of his eyes! Both sides started off quite steadily. Wei Xiao and Asleep each occupied one jungle zone, and they killed their creeps safely and calmly. In the middle were the two supports controlling the soldier lines, and this area was more exciting. The Brother Cai who was carrying the expectations from the audience chose his dark form at the start of the game. In this form, the medicine warlock could deal considerable damage, and he could clear out the soldier lines with a few attacks. Bai Cai asked Wei Xiao, Ill take the lane soldiers? Generally speaking, the support players in a doubles game wouldnt fight for farm. They would try their best to guard the soldiers and wait for their teammates to come and harvest the gold. Wei Xiao: Not just the lane soldiers, even the kills are all yours. Bai Cai: Would you f*cking die if you didnt purposely look for a fight! Brother Cai didnt even have to look at the scrolling comments to guess that there must be a lot of people sending commentsCC Go, Brother Cai, kill God Yi! Brother Cai, go! First Blood is yours! Bai Cais idol burden weighed ten tons. He really started to play seriously. Kill Cong Yi? It wasnt impossible. He glanced at the minimap. The upper jungle zone was Wei Xiaos, so Asleep must be in the lower jungle zone. The immortal thief and berserker thief killed jungle creeps at about the same rate. Wei Xiao was already chopping at the stone man, so Asleep should be as well, and might even be a little slower. Hed already pressed their sides lane soldiers over, and Asleep would definitely come over to eat the soldiers before going back to continue killing jungle creeps. By the time Wei Xiao arrived at the last jungle creep to the left, Asleep should have just started fighting the second jungle zone. This was an opportunity! He was already level two, while the holy paladin was still level one because he hadnt eaten the farm from the lane. A level two medicine warlock had two damage dealing skills. He just needed to first use the second skill, which could enchant, and then follow it up with the first skill infusion, and then he would definitely be able to maim the holy paladin who didnt yet have any gear. At the time, Wei Xiao, who wouldve finished with his jungle creeps by then, could dash under the tower and kill Cong Yi! Brother Cai took a deep breath and stared at the screen. It was impossible for every professional player to not think, but hed almost never strategized as comprehensively as he was thinking now. Was it okay? Could it work? People who didnt like to make decisions would often experience this kind of difficulty, but it was often this half a second that resulted in missed opportunities. F*ck! He was going to do it! To hell with being afraid, Laozi would rather die trying than to lose face, and if he cowered even before fighting, Beast Wei would laugh at him for the rest of their lives. Old Wei, Brother Cai walked forward, infusing himself as he notified Wei Xiao, Hurry up. There was no need to say more. Wei Xiao understood. Kay. The medicine warlock had two forms. The light form was a holy doctor who saved the dying and healed the wounded. Even its clothes were snow white and filled with compassion. The dark form was quite different; the white clothes were stained with blood, and traces of poison could be seen wafting off the fabric. Its entire body was gloomy and ghostly. At this time, Bai Cai was in his dark form. The special effect around his character after the enchantment was a strange black fog. His light wand turned into a demon wand, and it was like a poisonous snake that had suddenly awakened when it shot out at the holy paladin! The medicine warlocks first skill was infusion. It could absorb an opponents blood, and also leave behind a corrupt poison that corroded armor. Cong Yis holy paladin had blonde hair and blue eyes and glowed everywhere. After being infected with the corrupt poison, he was like a holy angel whod been defiled by the devil. He wasnt anxious or hurried. He used his first skill, holy grace, and recovered quite a lot of health. But Bai Cai didnt have any thought of retreating after this first encounter. After hitting the enemy with his skill, he took advantage of the cooldown reduction that gave him to use a second enchantment, then tossed out another infusion. The scrolling comments were lively, Not bad, these stacks of corruption were built up beautifully! Very on point. Who could have known that Brother Cais hand speed was so fast? Corruption could be stacked, but the key was to grasp the right time point as the margin of error there was only a few tenths of a second. If the timing was off, they would lose the stacking effect, but once it stacked up, it dealt double the damage! When Cong Yi saw that the holy paladins health was decreasing abruptly, he controlled his hero to retreat beneath the tower. Bai Cai: Old Wei! Wei Xiao: Got it! After clearing the last jungle creep, the immortal thief directly shifted into the enemys face and charged at Cong Yi while tanking the damage from the tower. The holy paladin who only had a third of its health left couldnt fight back. A whole set of skills smashed right into his face, and he instantly suffered heavy damage. System AnnouncementCC God Of Wealth killed Loyal Until Death. The audience who were watching the live broadcast were all sporting question marks over their heads, How come the kill went to Brother Cai? Whats going on, didnt my God Q go over to pick up the kill? What did I miss? Fu Li spoke slowly, Corruption. Eurostar was surprised, Quiet cant have done it on purpose, right? Fu Lis dark eyes flashed behind his glasses, If its intentional, then FTWs new junglers control over health volume and damage is really amazing. Someone in the scrolling comments finally saw what had happened, Oh my god, it was the medicine warlocks corruption! This, this could it be that the immortal thief calculated the damage and left the last sliver of health for the medicine warlock? He couldnt have calculated it so precisely. Coincidence, it must be a coincidence! Im sorry twin junglers sisters, let me first climb over the wall for one second. The Xiao Cai CP is really sweet! Why had Cong Yis death been credited to Bai Cai? It was because the last bit of fatal damage had come from the medicine warlocks corruption. Corruption dealt continuous damage. Under normal circumstances, it wasnt enough to kill the holy paladin, but the immortal thief had charged beneath the enemy tower to deal a bunch of damage with its skills, pushing down the holy paladins health to the limit. The last drop of health was swallowed up by corruption, and the system determined that the kill belonged to Bai Cai. Brother Cai also broke out of his reverie and looked towards Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was now an emotion rainbow fart blowing machine, Brother Cai is amazing, the damage was just right, handsome! Bai Cai: Did this old beast really let him have the kill? The Brother Cai whod just taken Wei Xiaos kill was a little nervous: Could one pluck a tigers whiskers without having to pay a price? Damn it, Brother Cai sat up straight. Hed only played this seriously during last years global finals! After both sides reached level six, the battle situation gradually heated up and became white hot. Although 3Us Cong Yi had died at the start of the game, and Bai Cai had taken First Blood, this wasnt enough to determine the winners and losers. Even if Cong Yi died ten times, he would still have value as a support player. Bai Cais farm lead didnt necessarily mean that he could win against Asleep. FTWs opening advantage was quickly wiped out. Lu Feng, whod originally still been working, had already set down his notebook and focused wholly on the match. Ding-ling. It was the phone in the room. Lu Feng was a little surprised. He picked it up, Hello. The front desk spoke in standard Mandarin, Hello, Mr. Lu, Im very sorry about disturbing you so late at night. Theres a Mister Yuan here to visit. May I ask if he is your guest? Lu Feng replied affirmatively and gave authorization. Yuan Ze hadnt come on his own. Hed also brought Gary as well as a late night snack. When Lu Feng opened the door, Old G was very excited, Close, hows your shoulder? Can you move it? Hey, hey, hey, be careful, your shoulder is very valuable, dont break it If it was broken, then there would no longer be a great demon king! Lu Feng stepped to the side, Its not that serious. Old G came to the main point, Then, can you solo? Lu Feng was merciless, No. Old G wilted. Yuan Zes eyes were sharp. He noticed the projection screen right away, Quiet is streaming? Lu Feng: Yes. Old G noticed it as well, A doubles game, these IDs is it the third place from last year? Old Gs Chinese hadnt been learnt in vain. He recognized the words Cant Sleep. Yuan Ze understood more than he did. He spoke thoughtfully, Quiets state isnt quite right. He really was worthy of being an old pro. He could see the awkwardness in the battle situation with just a glance. Lu Feng adjusted the projection screen so that it aimed at the left wall where the rest area of the suite was. They sat down. Gary was very hungry and tore open the late night meal, eating as he watched the game. In this doubles game, FTWs cooperation seemed to be lacking. They played messily, and those who were familiar with them could tell at a glanceCC FTWs support player was very different today. L&P and FTW had played quite a few training matches together, and he was very clear about Bai Cais style. Mild, cautious, and he could even be called timid. His performance was mediocre and unremarkable. But now, this medicine warlock dared to fight, dared to kill, and was incredibly fierce. It had an explosively strong sense of existence, and nobody could ignore him. Yuan Ze figured out the reason, Youve really picked up a treasure. He wasnt speaking about Bai Cai, but rather the Quiet who was guiding Bai Cai. Lu Feng glanced at him, I didnt pick him up. Yuan Ze: Ah? Lu Feng spoke calmly, It was destiny. Yuan Ze: .F*ck. The author has something to say: God Yuan, you can come empty handed for dinner. xiin: because LF will make sure youre fed with dog food~ apricot: i feel like Bai Cai. whenever Quiet opens his mouth, i want to scream too. translator from hell indeed lol Chapter 121: I have Close, do you? The doubles game was proceeding happily, but in fact, everyone started noticing something in the later stages. FTWs win rate wasnt high for this game. The medicine warlock and immortal thief talents were very different. It was very easy for them to play well with their own talents, and it wouldve been alright if they were playing against passers-by, but when faced with Asleep and Cong Yis cooperation, they soon exposed their weaknesses. Bai Cai had really been planned out from beginning to end in this game. After he took First Blood, Wei Xiao began to give up his farm like crazy, feeding the medicine warlock until it was fat and strong. Those who were knowledgeable knew that Brother Cai was FTWs support, but those who didnt know anything would even think that Quiet was the support instead! Bai Cai had been lifted up so high that he had to fly and carry even if he didnt want to! In the later stages, the more anxious Brother Vegetable was, the better he played. The medicine warlock switched states back and forth instantaneously, a whole set of moves covering the earth and skies. Even if it encountered the holy paladins ultimate move that gave an invincibility effect, it was still enough to beat them both back. Wei Xiaos boasting was endless, Do you see that? Theres nothing for me to do when my Brother Cai starts performing. The scrolling comments teased him, God Q, youre no good, your immortal thief cant even float up right now. Wei Xiao: Sigh, Brother Cais momentum is so strong, I dont dare to float around. Bai Cai couldnt keep up with this. Stop with the praise. Wasnt Laozi already desperate enough?! Wei Xiao: Brother Cai thinks Im embarrassing. Fellow brothers, please give me some advice. How should I not be embarrassing? Im afraid that Ill be tossed away by my medicine warlock daddy The scrolling comments burst out into laughter. Winning or losing wasnt important. In this game, Bai Cai had really shown brilliant strength. Everyone whod watched this live broadcast wouldnt dare to say that FTWs support player was a soy sauce barrel. soy sauce barrel C useless During a crucial group battle in the mid-lane, Wei Xiao jumped onto Asleep and used the only control skill that the two of them had, calling out, Brother Cai. Bai Cai had never thought he would be so reckless one day, Coming! He enchanted himself in his dark form, then used his first skill on the berserker thief, stacking up several layers of corruption at the same time. He then targeted the holy paladin and waited for him to use his ultimate move. The holy paladins ultimate move went against the heavens. It could give the player or their ally an invincibility special effect that lasted for a few seconds, making them immune to all damage. If it was used correctly, one would really be invincible! However, this ultimate move couldnt be targeted. It would be automatically used on the person in range with the lowest health. Bai Cai was waiting for precisely this moment. He pressed down the paladin and the thiefs health at the same time, and when the paladin used its invincibility, they would focus fire on the other. Wei Xiao was taking damage, Hurry up, I cant hold on Brother Cai stared unblinkingly at the screen, calculating silently in his heart, 3, 2 Eh? System AnnouncementCC Quiet killed Cant Sleep. God Of Wealth killed Loyal Until Death. Wei Xiao blinked, Whats going on? The scrolling comments were also filled with question marks. During such an exciting fight, at such a thrilling moment, at such an important junctureC Bai Cais cell phone rang. Brother Cai answered the phone, and then, Wei Xiao looked at him, Whats the matter? Brother Cais face was expressionless, 3U bases internet cable broke. The audience in the live broadcast room heard this, and everyone who was online laughed and cackled like wild geese. Bai Cais face was green. Hed worked so hard in this game, played so seriously, and it hadnt been easy for him to scheme against Asleep. He was just about to Wei Xiao wasnt polite and laughed out loud, his laughter even louder than that of the scrolling comments, Brother Cai was so overbearing and powerful that the other sides internet connection couldnt hold up. 3Us internet being broken wasnt an excuse, it had really broken! The road beside their base was being repaired, and the workers had accidentally poked the network cable, paralyzing the internet in the whole area for 20 minutes. In any case, it was an entertainment game, and their goal had already been achieved. The results werent important. Whats more, there was a proper game one week later. It wouldnt be too late for them to talk about winning and losing then. Wei Xiao looked at the time and felt that it was about time for the captain to go to sleep. He said goodbye to the live broadcast studio and withdrew. Bai Cai: He was unhappy, super unhappy. This kind of suffocating feeling where the climax had been cut short was too unpleasant! Wei Xiao patted him on the shoulder, Keep this mood. Well screw them to death next week. Bai Cai finally realized what had happened, Screw them to death? Laozi will kill you first! Damned Little Lunatic Wei, hed schemed against Laozi all morning! Wei Xiao dodged, What are you doing, Old Bai? Im gay now, so dont move your hands and feet like that. Bai Cai: Ive really never f*cking seen a gay like you before! A perfectly wonderful world for two had been turned into such a mess. Wei Xiaos heart was Sigh, it was very fun, but he missed the captain a little. Wei Xiao used the excuse of catching up on sleep to sneak back to his room, then took out his cellphone. Sure enough, the call had been hung up. That made sense, hed turned on the mic in the live broadcast room later on, so there was no need for the captain to keep the call going. Wei Xiao called back immediately. Lu Feng picked up, You didnt go eat? Wei Xiaos heart was filled with sweetness when he heard his voice, Ill go after you sleep. Lu Feng looked at the uninvited guests in his room. Gary yelled, Quiet, come solo! Wei Xiao raised his eyebrows, Captain, are there other men in your room? It didnt matter who it was; hed get jealous first. Mm. Lu Feng spoke deliberately, Theres two. Wei Xiao really liked these little dramas, Captain, youre going too far! Lu Fengs eyelashes lowered slightly, and he held back a smile, Ill call you back later. Wei Xiao: Then you have to video call, I want to perform an inspection. Lu Feng answered lightly, Alright. The tip of Wei Xiaos ears felt like they were burning, they felt hot and itchy. Although he could make jokes shamelessly, he couldnt help but blush and feel his heart speed up when Lu Feng cooperated with his teasing. Gary didnt know anything, but Yuan Ze knew everything. If they didnt leave now, then the entire hotel would be illuminated until it was as bright as day by the lightbulbs that the two of them had become. When they left the room, Gary used his primary school grade two Chinese to ask, Captain, what did Close mean by predestined by fate just now? Yuan Ze: You really f*cking like to open any pot that shouldnt be opened! Old G was thirsty for knowledge, How come I remember that this idiom is used to describe lovers? Yuan Zes heart thumped, and he acted like a human being for once, Chinese is broad and profound. Its common for a saying to have many uses. Gary asked earnestly, Then what did Close mean? Yuan Ze answered him casually, He means that Quiet is a turning point in his career. Laozi had done his best. Old G inferred other things from this one fact, In that case, I get it! Its just like how I met you, its predestined by fate! Yuan Ze: He almost slipped and broke his foot! As soon as they left, Lu Feng gave Wei Xiao a video call. It was better when they couldnt see each other. Once they could see, they missed each other even more. Unfortunately, they were half the world apart. No matter how much they missed each other, they could only stare at each other unblinkingly across the small screen. Lu Feng asked about Bai Cai. Wei Xiao explained about the hidden crush. Lu Feng caught onto the key point, Nervous? Wei Xiao splayed out on the bed and looked at him, Of course, theres a bit of that With Bai Cai, Wei Xiao would rather pull out the small secret of having a crush in order to avoid the main concern, but when it came to the captain, he couldnt help himself. Intellectually, Wei Xiao felt that he shouldnt rely on the captain like this, and he shouldnt act coquettishly with him, but The captain was always able to poke right at his heart, warm his coldest spot, and always made it so that he couldnt hold back. Wei Xiao: Dont worry. Focus on your recovery, Im fine. After that, he muttered quietly, Its just that I miss you a bit. Lu Feng listened and looked at him, and his heart felt like it had melted into a puddle of water. Wei Xiao, who was openly wanton and unrestrained in the competitions, responsible and reliable with his friends, the Wei Xiao who was hardworking, diligent, and thought things through seriously Only acted like a real teenager when he was in front of him. He was only 19 years old. The results of Lu Fengs initial examination reappeared in his brain, and his chest felt like it had been stabbed. He coaxed Wei Xiao gently, Wait for me to come back. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up, For sure! Lu Feng continued softly, Its okay, dont put too much pressure on yourself. Youre already doing very well. Wei Xiaos eyes curved with his smile, Captain, dont be like this Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: Ill be spoiled rotten by you sooner or later. After saying that, Wei Xiao felt like he was acting really shameless and wanted to change the topic to cover it up. Unexpectedly, Lu Feng replied in a low voice, Thats more than I could wish for. Wei Xiao: ! He was done for. His biggest test wasnt how to lead FTW to take first place in their group, but how to resist going to North America to kiss the captain! It was getting too late, and the two of them had to hang up the call. Wei Xiaos original intention was to coax the captain to sleep, yet as a result, he followed him into sleep. When he woke up, it was because Soybean had pounced over, waking him up thoroughly. There was a training match in the afternoon, and they would go over the game replays in the evening. This week that didnt have any competitions scheduled was still unusually busy, and it was already Wednesday again in the blink of an eye. The FTW vs 3U game was held on Wednesday at 5PM. This time, it was FTWs away game, so they needed to go to B City one day in advance. Chen Feng had asked everyone for their opinions on the itinerary for this trip. They could either go one day ahead of time, or travel there on the day of. Bai Cai and the others expressed, Go there one day ahead of time. Its a bit rushed to travel there the morning of. Tang Chen wanted to speak, but hesitated, Alright. He was a bit picky about beds and might not be able to sleep well in a new place, but it was indeed too rushed to travel there the morning of. Xiang Liu had made very good arrangements for everyone. They travelled with first class tickets, were picked up by a Mercedes Benz van, stayed at the Peninsula hotel, and even their catering had been carefully selected out of fear that someone might not be able to adapt to the food. The logistics work was all in place, and the rest would depend on the players strength. Everyone had a good nights sleep, but Tang Chen was always rotating his neck on the way to the stadium. Wei Xiao noticed it, Did Brother Tang not sleep well? Tang Chen rubbed at his neck, I slept really well. Chen Feng glanced at him, Take it easy, our team doesnt have a substitute right now. Tang Chen stopped rubbing and said, What are you thinking, have I ever needed a substitute in so many years? They were the second scheduled game of the day. Although it was already five oclock, the previous game hadnt yet finished, and they could only wait a bit longer. In the backstage lounge, 3U had arrived a bit earlier than they did. Both sides were very familiar with each other and greeted each other. The current game was between two teams who were at similar levels, and the fight was very intense. Theyd been tangled and fighting neck to neck from the first game all the way until the third game. Based on the current situation, they would likely be able to drag on for another half an hour. The organizers took this opportunity to record some material. After all, both 3U and FTW were all-star teams, and the audience always looked forward to the trash talk segments. Since everyone was already there, there was no need to separate the teams. The organizers simply started asking questions casually. All hosts were very interested in Asleep. The more a player didnt like to talk, the more traffic they would bring if they could be persuaded to speak during an interview. The host asked Asleep, Are you confident about todays game? Asleep: Cong Yi didnt translate. Wei Xiao picked up the conversation, It looks like Asleep: Confident. The host was filled with pleasant surprise and continued the interview, Asleep and Quiet are already old acquaintances. Is there anything you would like to say to each other today? Asleep: Cong Yi translated it, The internet cable wont break today. There was a roar of laughter in the lounge. The host finally let Asleep go and started interviewing everyone one by one. Towards the end, the polite questions had all been asked, but the previous game was still ongoing, so the host once again targeted Asleep, Based on the current situation, Asleep, what do you think are your advantages against Quiet? Asleep: Cong Yi. The host paused for a moment and thought that he was calling for Cong Yi to answer. Cong Yi added, What he means is that his advantage over Quiet is that he has me. The host: Although it was strange, it was also an objective fact. After all, Asleep couldnt win against Quiet in solo, but he could definitely crush Quiet in a doubles game. The host went on to interview Wei Xiao, asking him similar questions. At this moment, Brother Cai straightened his chest and stared at 3U, expressing that he shouldnt be overlooked. He was the jungler kings solid backing and was no worse than Cong Yi! Wei Xiao took the microphone, his gaze landing on Bai Cai. Bai Cais internal thoughts: Come on, brother, I support you! Wei Xiaos line of sight fluttered away and he spoke thoughtfully, Its a little hard to say. The host: Oh? Wei Xiao continued slowly, There are too many advantages. Im afraid I cant finish listing them all with this limited amount of time, so Ill emphasize one point. He looked at Asleep and asked, I have Close, do you? Asleep: Wei Xiao added to his point, My captain, Lu Feng, the only four consecutive world champion in the world, the number one player in the world, the most glorious, invincible, and unparalleled in the world (800 words were omitted here) The author has something to say: Why would you be foolish enough to ask Wei Xiaoxiao for trash talk? Chapter 122: Close wasnt there, and the ‘little devil was in charge. Host: The cameraman big brother: The post-production editors: Forget it, forget it, if they broadcasted this segment, they wouldnt be an e-sports program, but a talk show! The game before them finally ended, and the two people whod already started fighting like primary school chicks headed for the court. Asleep didnt make a sound, but Cong Yi said, Enough, its not like you havent experienced the grandmasters cocky mouth before. Cong Yi had been lucky enough to watch those replay videos back then with him. After watching it, Asleep had insomnia, and Cong Yi was afraid that hed go into seclusion, so hed told him five or six corny jokes. Later events proved that hed used up his stack of corny jokes in vain. Not only had Asleep not gone into seclusion, hed been completely invigorated by that hammer and remained fixated on the grandmaster. Asleep: Cong Yi: Alright, alright, alright, hammer him to death. Asleep: Cong Yi: Yes, yes, yes, kill him ten million times. Asleep: Cong Yi: Okay, we wont let a single FTW person leave alive! The other three from 3U often felt that they were living in a different dimension. Due to the previous games tardiness, everyone moved faster this game. After the peripherals were checked over, the headphones debugged, and the referee had checked over everything, the BP link began. Both sides were old teams who had played countless training matches together. They were merciless in screwing each other over, and if you chopped off my arm, then Ill break your leg. When BP ended for the first game, the line-up for both sides was very interesting. FTW: Divine warrior, Shadow thief, Immortal warlock, Holy paladin, Gold hunter. 3U: Blood warrior, Immortal thief, Ice mage, Giant shaman, Flame launcher. Thats right, 3U hadnt banned the shadow thief, and FTW hadnt avoided it. If you dared to let it out, then I would dare to take it. The scrolling comments were very happy, Quiets shadow thief! Nine light arcs! Exciting! Hurry and let the uneducated me see what nine light arcs look like! Director, please be humane and give Quiet more shots. I want to see how his hands fly over the keyboard. Ive seen Closes hands before, it really was like flying. Seriously, though Was Closes shoulder damaged by the light arcs? That operation level isnt like what a human can do. Upstairs, shut up, dont make Laozi cry! It was already past 6:30 and almost 7 by the time the game started, and Lu Feng had already woken up. After being in Country M for a week, he had recovered from any jet lag. Lu Feng didnt need to train so his work and rest schedule had become even more regular. He went to bed at 11PM, woke up at 6AM, went out for physiotherapy at 7:30AM, came back in the afternoon to do work remotely, then coaxed Wei Xiaoxiao to sleep. If it was half a month ago, Lu Feng wouldnt have been able to imagine that there would be a day when he didnt touch Glory. No training, no ranking, and no solo. Something that seemed very difficult to strip away from his life, something that hed thought would be very painful to commit to. In reality, it wasnt that bad. Because of Wei Xiaos existence, his heart didnt feel as empty as hed imagined. Yesterday was just the first week of his treatment. The attending doctor had done another examination, and the report still wasnt optimistic. Lu Fengs shoulder had been injured for a long time, and treatment had been delayed for three years. This was already the best result after hed kept up with his physiotherapy and exercise. If he could go back to three years ago, it would have been a lot easier. The attending doctor comforted him, Dont worry, the rehabilitation process is slow, and its hard to see any changes in just a week. Lu Feng was very calm, Yes, its been hard for you. After the check up yesterday, Wei Xiao had immediately called him to ask about the situation. Lu Feng answered vaguely, The doctor said that the recovery isnt bad. Wei Xiao was delighted, Thats great! They couldnt just be separated for so long for nothing. The two of them chatted for a long time and didnt hang up until Wei Xiao went downstairs to have dinner. After that, Lu Feng held his cell phone and stared at it for a long time before finally still sending a message to Xiang Liu. When Xiang Liu saw the message, his entire person felt cold, and his hands trembled, That boss this Lu Feng replied to him with four words, Better to be prepared. Xiang Liu: Okay The audience was looking forward to Quiets shadow thief brushing out nine light arcs. But the truth was In FTWs team chat. Bai Cai: What are you taking the shadow thief for. Wei Xiao: I just want to give it a try. Bai Cai: To hell with trying it, the entire crowd of people is waiting to see you make a joke out of yourself. Wei Xiao: Whats so funny? I already said that I cant do nine light arcs with my eyes open. Today, Ill have a chance to demonstrate it for everyone. Brother Cai: Im still an idiot for worrying about you. 3U had let the shadow thief out, not because they looked down on nine light arcs, but because they knew the truth. They had training matches every day and were too familiar with each other. What Wei Xiao had said on Glorys Mic Explosion King had really been the truth. His Schrodinger-style nine light arcs wasnt something he could brush out whenever he wanted to. So why ban the shadow thief? It wasnt a big daddy in this version of the game, and there was no need to waste a ban on it. And the 3U coach was filled with bad intentions. He was fearless, I feel that Wei Xiao wont take it. Stunts were a burden, especially during this stage when a skill wasnt yet mastered. It was easy for a player to become confused. Originally, Wei Xiaos shadow thief was played very well, but once he became addicted to brushing out nine light arcs, he wouldnt even be able to do eight. Probably Chen Feng wouldnt let him take this risk. Chen Feng slapped him in the face within a second, snatching up the shadow thief with his first pick. 3Us coach: Everyone else in 3U: Cough Coach: Thats-thats even better. Little Lunatic Wei is going to be useless in this game. He wont even be able to brush out a single light arc! Once he tried to brush out nine light arcs, failing would be the same as brushing out no light arcs at all. The system wouldnt downgrade it to seven or eight. Success was success, and failure was failure. There was no way back. Cong Yi: Theres no need to be so optimistic. He added, Brother Sleep said that. Everyone: Although they couldnt enter the dimension of the two of them, they still understood some rules after being together for such a long time. For example, when Cong Yi said Brother Sleep, it was mostly when he wanted to use him to take the blame. Brother Sleep was as steady as a mountain, silent and cool and extremely responsible! In fact, Cong Yis words were very accurate. They really shouldnt be so optimistic. After all, they werent up against an ordinary person. When it came to an idols burden, did Wei Xiao have any of it? This little lunatic would love to hold up the microphone and tell everyone that he couldnt brush out nine light arcs. Would he risk a game for the sake of a little dignity? Impossible. So, in this game, the shadow thief didnt plan to brush out nine light arcs at all. Werent eight light arcs great? Werent eight light arcs cool? Couldnt eight light arcs still kill people? System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed 3U.LC. See? Wei Xiao had just killed little student Li Chun, 3Us mid-laner. The scrolling comments were all calling out, Ah, why are there only eight light arcs! Wuwuwu, where are the nine light arcs we agreed on? Quiet, dont be so sneaky, start showing off! Could it be true that he cant brush out nine light arcs? Previous poster, youre so silly and cute, you really believed the grandmasters lies. Some players were too out in the open, and the haters couldnt find any direction to start up controversy from. They could flame him, but he was more professional at criticizing himself than the haters were, just listen to Glorys Mic Explosion King. If they didnt flame him, they always felt that something was missing, and their chests felt stuffy and unsettled. If they went for it and flamed him, then sorry, but the fans werent buying it, and they would just be scolded as fools. It was too hard. Hating on the players this year was very difficult. Li Chun had just died, and Asleep led Cong Yi to arrive at the mid-lane, forming a pincer from above and below to target Ning Zhehan and Wei Xiao together. Wei Xiao: Little Ning. Ning Zhehan: Brother Xiao. Wei Xiao went into stealth mode, Big brother cant save you. Little Ning had just smashed all his skills onto Li Chun and was now nothing but a three-legged cat. If he wasnt careful, hed fall flat on his face, Wuwuwu. It was impossible for Asleep to chase after Wei Xiao after killing Ning Zhehan. The two teams had played too many training matches together, and they knew each other well. FTW used to be biased towards operations, and fighting them was very steady and continuous, very well-regulated. Now Close wasnt there, and the little devil was in charge. The entire situation could only be described as reckless. Wei Xiao was reckless, and he led the whole team to pursue recklessness with him. 3U was about the same. When Asleep was reckless, the whole team had no choice but to follow him. The game between the two teams was very fun to watch. Fights broke out constantly from the start of the game, and after they had their ultimate moves, the frequency of the ganks only increased. If you killed my mid-laner, then I would mess with your bottom lane; if you suppressed my bottom lane, then I would make you pay for it with the blood of your mid-laner. The more they played, the more immersed into it they were, and the more confusing things became. Even the commentators couldnt make heads or tails of it. The win rate is 50-50, itll depend on the details from both sides. The farm is equal, and the defensive towers have all been broken. Quiet and Sleep (Asleep) are both pretty much done with their equipment. Based on their direction, both sides will meet at the big dragon pit. Thats a blind spot over there. Lets see who finds the other side first! Coincidentally, it was the jungler and support players from both teams who were converging on the same point, which were Wei Xiao and Bai Cai, and Asleep and Cong Yi. Quite a few people had heard about the doubles game that theyd played during the live broadcast and knew that these four peoples fight hadnt yet reached a conclusion. It looked like they were sure to win, but as a result, 3Us network cable had broken, leaving them with a huge unresolved ending. Now, there was actually such a good opportunity in the 5v5 arena. If they didnt fight a battle of life and death, they really wouldnt be able to live up to the enmity between the two sides! In this game, Wei Xiao had taken the shadow thief, and Brother Cai was using the holy paladin; Asleep was playing the immortal thief, and Cong Yi was using the giant shaman. Although the talents were totally different from the doubles game, it was still very lively. Brother Cai had already fallen in love with the holy paladin from that day on. In his wordsCCthis glittering, righteous character was simply made for this Vegetable! Indeed, Glory had an unwritten feature. Most of the talents that had high operational difficulty looked gloomy and cool. For example, the shadow thief, the hidden thief, the medicine warlock, the black magic druid, and then there was also the death knight, the blood warrior The light priest and holy priest that Brother Cai loved were all talents that required low hand speed. When it came to health preservation, nobody could compare with this Vegetable that had only just turned 20. In the canyon, the shadow thief and immortal thief discovered each other at almost the same time. Bai Cai: Ill go up first! Wei Xiao: Mm. The shadow thief entered stealth, and the cabbage went up to take the giant shamans control skill, making use of the holy paladins passive. The holy paladins passive was a light shield. When it was broken, it would stun the opponent briefly; Brother Cai had excellent control and was just able to block Cong Yi. Wei Xiao snuck around quietly to the back, targeting Asleeps back figure. Cong Yi completely ignored Bai Cai. He turned around and smashed down a sledgehammer right next to Asleep. This was the giant shamans ultimate moveCCground fissure. The canyon was eroded by magma, and a huge crack appeared. The shadow thief, who was in stealth, was hit and forced up into the air. Commentator: That was a very beautiful prediction. He guessed perfectly that Quiet would go around to attack Sleep. Very decisive, worthy of being a ranked team in the global doubles competition. This was indeed a very beautiful ultimate move. The shadow thief had been in stealth mode, and the enemy couldnt see where he was. However, Cong Yi could judge his position immediately after receiving Bai Cais brief control and perfectly attacked Wei Xiao. His game consciousness was really powerful. What was even more powerful was the cooperation between Asleep and Cong Yi. Asleep had moved forward long ago, and it was as though hed known what Cong Yi would do, and his damage caught up very quickly. He used two movement segments followed by a basic attack, and was just about to start up his ultimate move But what made everyones chin drops was that FTWs support who had never been eye-catching instantly used flash and gave Wei Xiao a tender protection. This was the holy paladins third skill. It would remove all control skills on a friendly target and restore their health. With this, Cong Yis ultimate move had been used in vain! The Wei Xiao who was now free from all control skills curved his lips, Cool, God Bai. The author has something to say: The holy paladins skills are very interesting. The first skill is holy grace, the third skill is tender protection, and the ultimate move is true love. Brother Cai: Old Wei, wait, let me give you tender protection. Wei Xiao: Kay The captain looks on with a dangerous gaze. xiin: i didnt make up these holy paladin skills, the author did owo (but omg theyre so girly?) Chapter 123: If you stay in FTW, youll never be able to surpass Yuan Ze! The Brother Cai who heard this had the illusion that hed released a vicious dog by loosening its leash. Oh, be a little more confident. What illusion? It was a fact! The shadow thief went back into stealth mode again, and when he reappeared, hed already smashed into the immortal thief. Asleep had started activating his skills one step ahead of time, but the two people ended up using their ultimate move at the same time. Eight light arcs spread out and covered the heavens and earth, and the immortal thiefs swords also hurtled down from the sky. This shocking amount of damage smashed onto both heads at the same time, and their health bars went up and down like roller coasters, causing the hearts of everyone who was watching to beat faster. Bai Cai was still some distance away from Wei Xiao. From this position, he could release the third skill tender protection, which had a long range, but he couldnt toss out the ultimate move true love. True love was the holy paladins true guardian skill. Once it was tossed out, Wei Xiao would be invincible for several seconds. As the name implied, invincibility meant that the player would be free from all harm. Their health wouldnt drop no matter how much damage they took! Cong Yi saw through Bai Cais intentions with a glance. How could he let him succeed? A set of continuous control skills stopped Bai Cais steps. Brother Cai only had one flash skill, which hed used just now. He looked at this short distance that couldnt possibly be any shorter, but he just couldnt cross it The immortal thief and the shadow thief were exchanging moves, neither of them paying any attention to their own health at all and fully entrusting their lives to their teammates. Based on how immersed in the fight they appeared to be, the ones who held the winning chips were the support players who werent actually involved in the fight. Who could arrive faster? Who could give them more support? They would decide the winner! What was the charm of a doubles competition? It was the mutual trust, the absolute trust, selflessness, and obliviousness to oneself! Cong Yi rushed over. After managing to slow Bai Cai down, he arrived at the shadow thiefs side first. They all watched as the giant shamans shield was about to be given to the immortal thief Bai Cai gave up on Wei Xiao and used a several millisecond time difference to throw his own second skill, blinding, at Cong Yi! The holy paladins second skill was the only one that could hit an enemy, and using it would affect the enemys hit rate. For example, at this moment the Cong Yi whod been hit by blinding actually managed to miss with the shield that should have had a 100% hit rate! The audience exploded, Holy shit, is Brother Cai so powerful? He solved my God Yis ultimate move and wasted his shield? Its over, its over, Im actually starting to feel that this vegetable stalk is inexplicably excellent. Upstairs, heres a warning for mosquito coil eyes. The commentators also spoke highly of Bai Cais operations. In the current China competition zone, Cong Yi was steadily rising up to become the ceiling for support players, and there were even people who called him Little Yan Jiang. In todays game, Brother Cais sudden performance had allowed everyone to see a new seedling. Battle! Tear into each other! Fight! How exciting was this game? Even the support players could start fighting amongst themselves! Cong Yi had eaten a loss twice at Bai Cais hands. How could he lay down and just let it happen? His shield mightve missed, but he still had a heal, and he also added a soft control skill to the immortal thief. Brother Cai had also rushed over. He tossed a timely true love to Wei Xiao, protecting him with the invincible state. This was the real tiger coming down from the mountain. The shadow thiefs skills were fierce. Its first skill could be brushed out and linked up for as long as the universe existed. Wei Xiaos extreme operations perfectly demonstrated the definition of the shadow thiefs unlimited shadow attack! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed 3U.Sleep. FTW.Quiet killed 3U.One. The shadow thief took a double kill, and Brother Cai also took two assists. This time, the two assists hadnt just been mooched, hed really given assistance! At the same time, 3Us teammates had transmitted over. Were Wei Xiao and Bai Cai done for? Wei Xiao was merciless when it came to selling vegetables, Bye bye! He entered a stealth mode and retreated. Bai Cai, who was covered in holy light, was both dazzling and eye-catching. Do you have any motherf*cking normal human feelings The paladin who had no skills left couldnt run away. Fortunately, FTWs players had also transmitted over and engaged in a brawl with 3U. At the end, the Wei Xiao whod retreated snuck back and sent off Li Chun. Li Chun: Although hed never made an appointment with the grandmaster before, hed experienced the fear of being dominated by the grandmaster! In the first game of the BO3, FTW won the match! Both sides struggled back and forth for nearly 40 minutes, playing out countless brilliant operations, and ended the game with a huge bang. The commentators gave a summary and analysis of the game while the players on the stage drank water and caught their breath. Wei Xiao wasnt polite at all when it came to praising Bai Cai, Badass, Brother Cai! It feels really great to be on the receiving end of your love! Bai Cai had just been about to boast when he thought about how the team chat was recorded, and would be edited and released to the public. His neck chilled, and he spoke in a low voice, Who the hell loves you! Respect yourself a little, Wei-gay-Xiao. Wei Xiaos scalp tensed up, and he said, Who the hell wants your love? He hurriedly got rid of any relationship between them. Brother Cai: ??? The speed at which you go back on your words isnt human! Wasnt that a little too fast?! Wei Xiao was afraid that the captain wouldnt understand and explained further, Dont use the holy paladin in the future. Those lovey-dovey skills that you use are going to destroy Laozis innocence. Bai Cai couldnt help it anymore, F*ck you %%& %&%. Yep, it was censored. Chen Feng put his headphones on just in time to hear these two primary school chickens sniping at each other. What are you boasting for? His Majesty the Queen spoke up, Are your egos all inflated from just a small win? Wei Xiao and Bai Cai each got a chestnut on their foreheads and grew obedient. Chen Feng stood behind Tang Chen and looked at the screen over his shoulder. This was a very common action, The team coaches didnt have computers of their own, and they would have to look at a team members screen for the BP segment. The two little ones were too excited, and Chen Feng wanted to cool them down a bit, so he came over to Tang Chens side to oversee the situation. But unexpectedly, Tang Chens body shrank down almost imperceptibly when his hand landed. Chen Feng was stunned. Tang Chen gritted his teeth and forcibly diverted his attention, Ban the berserker thief? Chen Fengs gaze landed on the back of his neck, his heart thumping hard, You Tang Chen: Ban the berserker warrior first, then. Chen Feng abruptly gathered his wits and stopped thinking about other things. He focused his attention on the BP, Yes. He couldnt let 3U take the double berserker combo. Asleeps berserker thief was too explosive, and once it was matched up with the berserker warrior, the current FTW wouldnt be able to handle it. Chen Fengs thoughts were a little messy, so even though he was able to grab a good line-up for the players, the other side was still able to snatch up the berserker thief with their first pick priority. 3U had lost one match. If they lost this match as well, the game would be over. 3U would definitely spare no effort on this decisive game since they had to win. The regular season was a points competition, especially in the cycle of games between different groups. This would be the only game they played against each other during the entire regular season, and no matter if they won or lost, they would have to charge into the playoffs if they wanted to meet again. So, everyone was very serious; nobody wanted to lose! In the second match, 3U obtained one of their strong line-ups: Death knight, Berserker thief, Spirit mage, Light priest, Frost hunter. FTWs line-up wasnt bad, either: Blood warrior, Flying thief, Fire mage, Holy priest, Storm hunter. Chen Fengs expression grew heavy after he stepped down from the stage. The camera inadvertently switched to him, and quite a few viewers in the audience noticed his expression. Why does Queen Chen look so serious? FTWs line-up is pretty good. Using the flying thief against the berserker thief is a good call. He can run away even if he cant beat win; FTWs side also has the fire mage and storm hunter for additional DPS, so the line-up should be very stable. Wait a minute God Les storm hunter Ummmm, Im a little worried. Yue Wenles storm hunter was very dazed. If it encountered a team that tended to play steadily, he could attack and kill until the other sides mothers wouldnt even recognize them. But when he met with a reckless team, he would expose his weaknesses and end up ganked until he exploded on the spot. During 3U and FTWs countless training matches together, Asleep had pressed Yue Wenle down and smeared him all over the ground before. However, when faced with the berserker thief, he would die even more miserably if he didnt take the storm hunter. The range of the berserker thiefs scythe was too long, and when the marksman with limited mobility was hooked by it, it could only perform a health bar vanishing skill on the spot. The audience made many guesses, but Chen Fengs own heart was as clear as a mirror. It was 3U forcing them to use the storm hunter, and also that they could only use the storm hunter. But this didnt mean that FTW would lose, unless the top and bottom lanes collapsed at the same time, and Wei Xiao had no way to provide support. If that happened, then it would be a big problem. The top lane Chen Feng stared at Tang Chen. He couldnt see the slightest difference in his wheat-colored skin. He still had the same careless, unconcerned appearance that hed always had as he guarded FTW day after day for years. The game began, but Chen Feng couldnt focus on the canyon. He was biting the nail on his thumb, and his heart was a mess. Tang Chen The player whod stayed in FTW for the longest time. Hed joined the team two years before Close, and played competitively with Chen Feng for a year. Later on, Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun had joined the team, and Tang Chen had become the teams substitute. Chen Feng played with them for one year, but he really couldnt keep up with the pace. He applied for retirement and went to join the coaching team. Then, Close had joined the team, and Tang Chen continued as a substitute. During FTWs most glorious year, seven people had gone up to the stage to hold the championship cup. The coach, the five starters, and the substitute Tang Chen. Everyone focused on the five dazzling people and occasionally shone some light on the coach, but nobody would ever pay attention to Tang Chen. The Team of Gods substitute, the substitute who never had the opportunity to play, yet always remained at the peak condition, keeping guard over their backs. At the time, Chen Feng had asked Tang Chen, Do you want to transfer? Under the brilliant aura of the five starters, Tang Chens light had been completely hidden. But Chen Feng knew that Tang Chen was very strong. He was hard-working, and he often trained for even longer than the starters. His operations and game consciousness were both very good, and especially with that big heart of his, it was something that many players wished for but couldnt encounter. If he hadnt encountered those five, Tang Chen would definitely be able to show off his own brilliance on the field. Unfortunately the Team of Gods was too dazzling. At the time, Tang Chen had laughed easily, Why would I want to transfer? You guys are so good to me. Indeed, this silly man attached a lot of importance to relationships. He remembered every little bit of kindness shown to him in his mind. Later, the Team of Gods disbanded, and Close, whod bought the team, had given everyone a chance to leave freely if they wanted. Chen Feng had chosen to stay, but he hadnt wanted Tang Chen to remain. Hed said to the top-laner, Go to TPT, theyre short on top-laners. Youll have a better future there! But Tang Chen hadnt hesitated to say, Then what about Close? He lacks everything. Chen Feng reminded him, If you stay in FTW, youll never be able to surpass Yuan Ze! This was an indisputable fact. Every new starter that filled a position in the new FTW would be under great pressure. Tang Chen couldnt surpass Yuan Ze, and the mid-laner couldnt surpass Xie He. The marksman couldnt surpass the records that Kim Sung-hyun had left behind, and the support player wouldnt be able to copy the legendary Yan Jiang. Chen Feng felt heartache for Tang Chen and hoped that he could fight for himself for once. Tang Chen saw through his thoughts, I cant go, you guys need me. So hed stayed and given up a new beginning, carrying an unresolvable burden and fulfilled his oathCC Guard Close. Guard FTW. Guard the teams new players. The top lane was lonely, but also powerful. He held down the fort there, a solid back that Close could trust. The first year The second year FTW had never been able to achieve good results. In the 5v5 game, two people werent enough to hold up the battlefield, Until the third year, when Tang Chen really helped up the championship cup, this careless and easygoing man burst into tears. It was only a domestic championship, but it had really belonged to him. And it was also the last championship of his career. However, Tang Chen had seen both the hope in the rise of FTW and their near future. He applied for retirement and left his position to a stronger newcomer. He would continue to guard FTW from behind the scenes. Was Tang Chen reconciled with that? Unfortunately, his age and body wouldnt give him a chance to be unreconciled. His state was deteriorating, so hed chosen to retire responsibly. During the winter training camp, Tang Chen and Chen Feng had stayed in the same room. Chen Feng knew better than anyone that this guy couldnt let go. He couldnt put down the competition, couldnt put down the battlefield, couldnt put down FTW. So, when Close came to find him, hoping that he could play for another regular season, Tang Chen had quickly agreed. That night, this big man who was smiling and laughing all day long said to Chen Feng, Old Chen, what if I end up dragging these boys down? It was the first time Chen Feng had seen him like this. He lit a cigarette for him, What are you thinking? Its just a regular season. Tang Chens eyes were very bright, Wei Xiao wants first place. Chen Feng: Him? He even wants to pluck out the moon from the sky. Tang Chen: I want to help him get first place. Chen Feng: Returning back to the game, back to the familiar canyon, guarding FTW once again. Tang Chen wanted to win more than anyone else. This was the last competition of his career. He was very happy to be able to participate in the new FTW. xiin: we learn a little more about Tang Chen~ Chapter 124: Keeping up with this beast was too difficult! Wei Xiao could sense that something was off right at the start of the game. At first, he didnt think too much of it. He just thought that 3Us murderous aura was too strong. 3U was really filled with killing intent in this game. This was their first official game against FTW this season, fighting against last years championship team! They wanted to win! If they couldnt win against the FTW that didnt have Close and were still running in, how would they be able to join in the running for the championship? They had to win. They must win. Regardless of whether it was Asleep or Cong Yi, or even Li Chun, Yoyo, and Popsicle, they all wanted to win! They could only meet FTW once during the regular season, and the next time they played, it would be after the great demon kings return. If they couldnt win this time, then how could they fight against Close! 3Us team chat was very serious. Asleep was normally silent, but he was even more so now, like someone had pressed the mute button on him. Cong Yi didnt say much either, following Asleeps pace and charging straight into FTWs jungle zone. Wei Xiao was using the flying thief. The flying thief was an extremely flexible hero where three of its four skills could be used for movement, and its fourth skill even had many segments that allowed the hero to move back and forth. The talents nickname in Glory was the running king, because nobody could compare with him when it came to footwork. With such flexibility, there was bound to be reduced advantages in other places, such as damage output. Compared with other jungler core talents, the flying thiefs DPS was low. If it didnt have a farm advantage of 3000-4000 gold, it was very likely that the flying thief wouldnt even be able to fart effectively. Wei Xiao had taken the flying thief mainly to control the berserker thief. It wasnt that other talents couldnt control the berserker thief, but they couldnt control the berserker thief that was being played in doubles mode. FTW had to respect the berserker thief that had Cong Yis protection because it could kill anyone in its path even in the global competition. The flying thiefs early game strategy was to avoid fighting. If Asleep and Cong Yi invaded his jungle zone, then Wei Xiao had to either gather his teammates together for an ambush, or simply change to another jungle zone. This was also in Wei Xiaos plans. He first started with the blue buff while Brother Cai provided vision in the bottom lane. If Asleep went to take his red buff, he would go straight to the opposite sides jungle area and steal as much as he could. Unfortunately, 3U wanted to have a fight. They charged straight into the jungle zone, aiming right at Wei Xiao. Little Ning was very eager, Brother Xiao, are we fighting? Tang Chen was to Wei Xiaos left, and Ning Zhehan was to the right. Brother Tangs death knight had started off with its heavy form. It had a strong control skill, solid health, and DPS. Ning Zhehans spirit mages passive skill was heaven defying, and it had a real advantage in the early stages when it came to moving around and fighting. There were three of them, and Cong Yi and Asleep only had two people Wei Xiao: Do it! This judgement was correct. Encircling the berserker thief and light priest from the left and right and suppressing them would be an immortal level start to the game for FTW. Only, Chen Fengs heart clenched from where he was watching beneath the stage. A fight started in the canyon. So what if they were fighting a team battle at level one? So what if they didnt have many skills? Once they started going wild, they could hurt people even by biting them with their baby teeth! The commentators followed up very quickly, explaining the situation clearly and cleanly, leading the audience members hearts to leap up to their throats. This kind of start to the game would result either in big gains or a major collapse. It would depend on who could hold on. Asleeps understanding of the berserker thief was really very deep. His scythe shot out, locking accurately on the flying thief. Wei Xiao: Dont worry about me! He was speaking to Little Ning and Brother Tang. The flying thief was agile. The scythe had hooked him, but as long as he made use of his high mobility, he could get out of the berserker thiefs attack range and disrupt his next attack. Ning Zhehan: Got it! Tang Chens death knight also rushed over from behind to surround them. Wei Xiao escaped from Asleeps scythe and shifted towards the back, Ill wait for Li Chun, you guys take down Asleep. The berserker thiefs scythe had come up empty, and there was a cooldown on its first skill. This was the best time. Ning Zhehan exposed himself. Wei Xiao was afraid that 3Us mid-lane Li Chun would rush over to provide support, so he had to catch him on the way over and ensure that he didnt have a chance to provide help! There was nothing wrong with the entire battle plan. What was left was the actual fighting. The spirit mage entered the scene, rolling and colliding and dealing the highest possible damage. At the same time, he was also beaten down to half health, Brother Tang! Little Ning had tried his best. He was waiting for the death knights longsword to control the berserker thief. Tang Chen: Mm. The death knight in its heavy form had a strong control skill. As long as it could hit the berserker thief, Asleep would be done for. Once Asleep died, then Cong Yi wouldnt have a chance to run, either. The commentator: God Tangs death knight has raised its sword, aiming at Asleep. Once this sword lands, the berserker thief will be sent flying. Quiet is already on his way back, and Ning Zhehans cooldowns are finished. Theres hope for FTW in this wave! As soon as their voice fell, the berserker thief skillfully repositioned itself and narrowly avoided the death knights heavy sword attack! 3U fans exploded, He evaded it! Holy shit, Sleep God is badass! He moved like a snake, is that even possible?! They can cut a clip of this scene. This old lady could replay it 10,000 times. Sleep Darling, Sleep Darling, mama loves you!!! Tang Chen clearly paused for a moment, and it was obvious that he hadnt expected that his skill would miss. However, the berserker thief couldnt possibly let him have this time for hesitation. Asleep perfectly exhibited the essence of a mad dog. His scythe flew over directly and locked onto the death knights throat. Cong Yis soft control skill tripped up Wei Xiao slightly, and Ning Zhehans heart cooled. He could tell that things were bad. System AnnouncementCC 3U.Sleep killed FTW.Tango. Tang Chen died. The berserker thiefs scythe was stained with blood, and he entered a berserk state. This talent in the thief professions entire body had always been coated with a crazed temperament. After it entered the berserk state, it was even crazier. Special effects burst out all over his body, and the scythe whirled and left bloody shadows. His movement speed, attack speed, and damage dealt were all greatly improved, and what was even more terrible was that all of his skill cooldowns would be refreshed. He was just like a hungry wolf amongst sheep! Wei Xiao: Run! Ning Zhehan tossed out a skill and used his movement passive. Unfortunately, Cong Yi had been locked in on him and used his first skill to disrupt his passive. At the same time, the berserker thiefs scythe flew over and caught the spirit mage by its slender waist. Ning Zhehan: He felt like his waist had also been caught in reality! In this team fight, two people from FTW died, and not only did Asleep pick up two kills, hed also forcibly snatched up FTWs upper jungle zone and forced Wei Xiao to run and hide. As the commentators had said, it would either result in big gains or a major collapse. Their lives were on the line for the start of this game! Beneath the stage, Chen Fengs expression paled, and the little assistant beside him handed him a cup of water. Chen Feng accepted it and drank a mouthful of warm water, then gave an order in a low voice. The assistant nodded and headed to the backstage lounge. In FTWs team chat. Tang Chen paused briefly, Im sorry. Wei Xiao: Whats there to apologize for? Tang Chen was stunned. Wei Xiao: If you have to apologize, then I should kneel down and kowtow to everyone. I made the biggest mistake in that wave. Ning Zhehan added hastily, Me too I shouldve gone up to deal more damage. Wei Xiao raised his voice, Alright, dont be discouraged, the game hasnt even started! With his words, the atmosphere in the team chat became lively once again. Brother Cai shouted from the bottom lane, Dont worry, dont worry, my Darling Le is growing up well, we can fight in the late stage of the game! But it was impossible for 3U to give FTW a chance to fight in the late stages. It was as though Asleep had been injected with chicken blood. He started off with such a ferocious rhythm, then continued to bite at people all over the map. The cameras focused on him frequently, and every close-up made the fans scream. Asleep was only 18 years old this year, and he was one year younger than Wei Xiao. He was very tall, his figure thin, and his facial features were delicate. His complexion was growing paler and paler because he didnt go out into the sun all year round, and his eyes that couldnt seem to wake up from sleep on normal days, were as bright as stars when he stared at the canyon. The more they saw his usual lazy appearance, the more fiercely they were hit by his serious appearance. The fans screamed endlessly. Asleep didnt let down the audience either. He didnt treat his opponents like human beings from the beginning to the end. It had been a long time since Wei Xiao had been suppressed so fiercely, but unfortunately, his losses in the early stage had been too big, and his farm was always nearly 2000 gold less than the berserker thief. In the late stages, Wei Xiao stole farm from everywhere and was able to take back some advantages somehow, but unfortunately, it was time for Yue Wenles downfall. It was as though Asleep had installed a radar in Yue Wenles body. He chased after him, chopping and hacking. God Le had a problem that couldnt be considered major, but it wasnt minor, either: If you dont hit me, then Ill develop honestly; as soon as you bite me, then my surname will no longer be Yue if I dont f*cking bite you back! They were both trained up by the grandmaster. Asleep and Yue Wenle both became engrossed in it and lost their heads. Brother Cai shouted until his throat was about to break, F*ck, Old Yue, just wait for me! Damn it, Yue Wenle, if you go up and attack again, Laozis going to kill you! Yue Wenle, stop there for me ahhhh, wait until you eat a mouthful of Laozis milk before you go up and die, ahhh! Shouting until his throat was broken was of no use. God Le just insisted on going up, insisted on fighting, and would fight with his life on the line. Keeping up with this beast was too difficult. Brother Cai wanted to start killing people! Later on What kind of later on could there be. It was 1:1, then. It was another 50 minute game. After watching the entire game, the audience had neck pain. Theyre too fierce. Seriously, I didnt expect that FTW would be able to hold on for so long. Yes, yes, yes, Quiet was too good at stealing farm in the middle stages. His harassment really managed to annoy 3U. Stealing and sneaking around is the flying thiefs core operation. God Les late stage game was really Just get used to it. In the last season, my vegetable had to use three boxes of throat lozenges every day. Asleeps still better. If the berserker thief could lose even after taking such a big advantage, their runner-up placement in the doubles would be fake. A BO3 game was two wins out of three matches. Now, both sides each had one point, and they would be moving to the last game. It took more than two hours to play the two games (including the BP time), so there was a half-time break. Both sides left their equipment where it was and headed to the backstage lounge. Chen Feng had been waiting there for a while, and hed also prepared tea and snacks. Yue Wenles mood became stable as soon as he saw the potato chips. Chen Feng scolded him, Cant you be a little more f*cking steady! He was crazy on the field, then timid as a quail when he was off the field. God Le listened obediently to the scolding. Wei Xiao poked at a piece of watermelon and picked it up to eat, Coach, did you see through the fact that we would lose early on? If they won the game, they would be going straight home and wouldnt need a half-time break. Looking at the configuration here: Potato chips, watermelon, Black Swan cake, some hot drinks from a brand that was famous for its long lines It was well prepared and couldnt have been arranged without at least half an hour of time. Chen Feng glanced at Tang Chen out of the corner of his eyes and said, I originally arranged it as a celebration banquet for you guys. Wei Xiao smiled like a fox, Dont prepare it next time, its bad luck. See? Hadnt the victory party turned into a half-time break? Chen Feng glared at him, Youre not old enough to have so many superstitions. Wei Xiao was in a good mood and ate a good many pieces of watermelon one after another. Chen Feng then couldnt help but nag him, Eating a few pieces is enough. Be careful of indigestion. Wei Xiao: Yes yes yes! Although theyd lost a match, the overall atmosphere in FTW was okay, and they werent in a slump. At the end of the day, it was just a regular season game. Although they could only play 3U once during the regular season, there would still be opportunities later on. Wei Xiao started selling his own wonderful ideas to Ning Zhehan once again, Winning or losing is common. When were playing, our hearts, eyes, and minds have to be filled with win, we must win, we will win, but before the game, theres no need to be so nervous. The closer we get to the decisive game, the calmer we have to be. A real man is someone who can look down on life and death while on the edge of a cliff Chen Fengs brain felt like it was divided into two parts. The left side was filled with Little Lunatic Weis chatter, and the right side was focused on Tang Chen. He asked him in a low voice, Still okay? He didnt say it clearly, but Tang Chens back drooped noticeably, Of course. These two words were spoken in a slightly unnatural tone, and the volume was a little high, startling the three little ones on the other side. Wei Xiaos line of sight shifted over. Tang Chen sat up straighter and pulled up a grin, Its nothing. But this grin was so forced that it looked like crying. Wei Xiao set down his fork and looked over, Brother Tang, the body is the capital for revolution. The author has something to say: Thats what the captain said~ xiin: WX to the rescue~ Chapter 125: I did it especially for love-ahhhh... Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were stunned as soon as he opened his mouth. Theyd obviously not noticed anything before. Chen Fengs complexion changed slightly. Tang Chens mouth moved, wanting to say something, but ultimately he was unable to speak. If it came to being big-hearted, then nobody at the scene was more so than Wei Xiao. When it came to being careful and attentive, then even the sensitive Chen Feng would count as being on the same level as him. Wei Xiao had felt a sense of dissonance within the team ever since the bloody losses FTW suffered at the start of the game. Ever since the captain left, one of his mandatory daily tasks was to get to know all his teammates. Brother Cais zen, Ning Zhehans timidness, Yue Wenles recklessness; he observed it all, adapting to and guiding these traits. Relatively speaking, Tang Chen was the most reassuring one of the group. He was an old pro, rich in experience, broad-minded and strong all his advantages put together equaled one word: steady. Brother Tang was very stable, steadily guarding the top lane. He didnt make his teammates worry. This feeling was different from the captain. To be more precise, the captain was like a vast sky that covered the whole canyon, giving pressure to the other team and freedom to his teammates. Tang Chen was more like a solid wall, blocking the enemys barrage of bullets and giving his teammates enough time to find an opportunity to attack. Wei Xiao liked Close and could adapt to him best, but when it came to other professional players, maybe Tang Chen would be the better choice in the top lane. He wasnt aggressive, his pace was steady, and it made people feel comfortable. Chen Feng was right. Tang Chen was a rare top-laner, and if he had been anywhere else but in the Team of Gods, in any other team, he wouldve been a treasure. In the last game, Wei Xiao had gradually discovered the problem while constantly trying to steal resources. Perhaps because the audiences eyes remained on Yue Wenle, they had focused on flaming him for his recklessness. They blamed him for losing his head in the game to foolhardiness and disregarding everyone and everything, causing them to lose the game. But in fact, that wasnt the case Yue Wenles problem wasnt a new thing, and it wasnt so easy to change. With the correct guidance, he was like a miracle soldier, but the problem was that the balance of their team had deviated. When the bottom lane was reckless, but the top lane was steady, there was a balance. When the bottom lane was reckless, but the top lane shrank back, then there was an imbalance. What had happened to Brother Tang? Wei Xiao had thought about it for a long time without any results, until they returned to the lounge. With Wei Xiaos words, the lounge grew so quiet that the sound of a needle dropping could be heard. Chen Feng and Tang Chen were both a little flustered. They had considered that Wei Xiao might discover something, but they hadnt expected that he would say it so frankly. The decisive game against 3U was about to begin. Wasnt he going to blow up the other three cubs mentality by dropping this sentence? Chen Feng frowned, wanting to give a vague explanation and let the matter drop. But Wei Xiao was more ruthless and asked an even more direct question, Are your cervical vertebrae uncomfortable? He was asking Tang Chen. Tang Chen: Bai Cai, Ning Zhehan, and Yue Wenle were even more stunned. Bai Cai was the only one who could still speak, Brother Tang did your cervical vertebrae problem flare up? Tang Chen immediately replied, What do you mean, flare up? How can it be so serious. There were indeed some problems with his cervical vertebrae, but it wasnt that serious. It was just the normal strain that professional players suffered from, enough to cause pain, soreness, and swelling, but it would recover with rest. When he pretended to have a fractured back when Wei Xiao joined the team, it had mostly been an act. Wei Xiao was really damned perceptive, Could it be that you slept badly? Tang Chen couldnt continue his wordsCCit was just that it really was a bit true. He was quite concerned about away games. Coming one day ahead of time and sleeping in a strange place, if he couldnt adapt and didnt sleep all night, his energy levels would be low, but if he slept, then his neck wouldnt be able to deal in the morning. Hed started to feel uncomfortable in the morning, but after the first game, the discomfort had spread out into a headache. It had been particularly serious during the game just now. The tendon that stretched from his spine to his arm was so painful that his hand felt like it was cramping. Little Ning was a little flustered, Then, in the next game Wei Xiao interrupted him, Why didnt you say so earlier! His light, unconcerned tone made everyone confused for a moment. Wei Xiao set down his fork, wiped his hands, and came over, reaching Tang Chens back with a few steps, You may not know this, but I learned from Doctor Chen. Even someone with nerves as rough as Brother Tangs would feel muddled at this time, What The informed vegetable: Wei Xiao continued, Physiotherapy. Doctor Chen said that my skills are enough to go and take the practical test. Come on, come on, Ill massage it for you. I can ensure that youll immediately be as lively as a dragon and invigorated as a tiger. His voice fell, and his slightly heated fingers landed on the back of Tang Chens neck. Everyone stopped paying attention to eating their snacks and watched this wonderful, strange show instead. Wei Xiao pressed down a few times, then tsked and said, Brother Tang, youre really too tight. Tang Chen: Wei Xiao talked as he massaged, Cervical spine exercises, got it? Do it once for every game, and you can ensure that youll resurrect with full health, able to screw over the other side and overturn the heavens and earth. Tang Chen: Bai Cai couldnt keep listening any longer. He rubbed his forehead, Cant you f*cking speak human words. Wei Xiao: Ah? Bai Cai: Would you die if you didnt talk dirty! Wei Xiao only realized after the fact, F*ck, Old Bai, youre so dirty! Brother Cai: This was so damned ridiculous, hed never seen someone who retaliated like this. Chen Feng thought of a certain someone far away in America and felt a little lucky: If Close was here, then Old Soup would be so covered in vinegar, hed become Vinegar Soup. Regardless of how dirty it was, Wei Xiaos technique wasnt exaggerated. After massaging him for five or six minutes, Tang Chen was pleasantly surprised, It really works. Wei Xiao was quite proud, Of course, I practiced it especially for love-ahhhh for the captain! Brother Cai understood what he meant and almost choked to death. He wished he could weld his closet door shut! Ning Zhehan came over, Brother Tang, next time, lets bring our pillows with us when we have an away game. Tang Chen was stunned. Ning Zhehan gave him some advice, Really. When I was studying, there was a classmate of mine who was picky about beds. He took his pillow with him wherever he went Yue Wenle added, Yes, the pillows in our base are really good for sleeping. Bai Cais eyes were filled with money, Its 8000 for two pillows, how can you not sleep well with them? Ning Zhehan only learned about this now. Holy shit, its so expensive! Bai Cai: Do you know how much the mattress costs? Ning Zhehan asked quickly, How-how much? Bai Cai put up a few fingers, and Ning Zhehan sucked in a breath of air. Brother Cai patted Little Ning on the shoulder, Now you know how much the captain loves us. Ning Zhehan nodded like garlic being pounded. This love is so rich! The half-time break was only fifteen minutes, and it passed by quickly. When they went back up to the stage, Tang Chens state had changed. The paleness of his complexion had faded, and the former warmth was back between his eyebrows. He walked in at the end of the team, once again the high wall that guarded FTW! Chen Feng didnt say anything more. What Wei Xiao had given Tang Chen wasnt just simple relief from his cervical discomfort, but also the strength to accept and face it. If he was experiencing discomfort, he could say it. If there was a problem, he could talk about it. He wasnt alone. Were not that vulnerable. Even the wall that propped up the team needed sunshine and comfort. The game that started at half past six had already been played until half past eight. After finishing a stage of the physiotherapy, Lu Feng was in the resistance room doing resistance training. The resistance training was relatively comfortable, but it required doing the same movement over and over without any change. It would get very boring over a long period of time. When the nurse asked him if he needed anything, Lu Feng asked her to help him load up the official live broadcast room from China. The nurse was particularly kind to him, Is this your team? Lu Feng nodded, Yes. It just happened that the camera was focused on the players as they entered the arena. A black haired, pale skinned youth smiled at the camera, revealing the small tiger teeth on one side of his mouth, his appearance cute and handsome. The nurse stilled slightly, Hes very good looking. Lu Feng was also looking at him, Mm. The little nurse looked at him a bit more, and the more she looked, the more she felt that he was attractive. She asked curiously, Does he have a girlfriend? Lu Feng: The nurse blinked. A lot of people must be interested in such a handsome boy. Lu Feng paused for a moment, then said, I dont know about others, but I like him very much. The little nurse: ! Lu Feng looked at her and asked, Can you keep it a secret for me? The little nurse sucked in a breath, then nodded her head like garlic being pounded. Those who werent in the circle didnt understand things that happened in the circle, but it didnt prevent her from eating a mouthful of sugar! FTW vs 3Us third match. This wasnt just the decisive game for 3U anymore; it was also the decisive game for FTW. No matter what, it was their last game that night. If they won, theyd have grabbed a point and temporarily have the top rank for the regular season. If they lost, theyd lose a point, but it wouldnt be to the point where getting first place in the group was out of reach. Points battles were all like this. It was difficult to determine the teams position until the last game was played. This game wasnt at the level of life or death, but both sides were very serious: they were showing respect to their opponent as well as to themselves. The BP was relatively slow in the third match, especially when it came to FTW. They had a slight dispute amongst themselves. Tang Chen said, Can I use the space-time knight? Chen Feng frowned. We havent practiced this line-up privately before. Tang Chen didnt say a word. Wei Xiao: Double support? Chen Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao: Lets do it, I want to try how it feels to have double the love. Chen Feng: The so-called double support meant that there would be two support talents in the team. Brother Cai would be the main support, but either the top-laner or mid-laner in the team would take a support type talent. For example, 3U was very good at having Li Chun play the zither warlock, which was a support-type mid-lane talent. It could DPS and control the enemy as well as heal friendly troops. 3U was a typical jungler core team, and they often used double support with Asleep, the three people sticking together to gank the other side. This kind of double support set up was very common, and many teams could use it. For example, South Koreas Pro had also used double support with Kim Sung-hyun before. It was a very valid way of raising up their Baby Hyun into your Daddy Hyun, protecting him until not a single gap was left. As long as the opponents couldnt touch Kim Sung-hyun, then Pro was INVINCIBLE in all caps. It was very common to see a mid-lane support, but it was very rare to have the top-laner play support. The divine warrior was a function-based top-laner, but its talent attributes wereCCwarrior, tank. It wasnt much different from a pure support, but it could advance and retreat. It was different for the space-time knight. This was a talent that could be used as a pure support, but it was just that Brother Cai didnt like to use it much. Knights naturally had high health and a defensive bonus. They were very good at taking a beating. The space-time knight was a wonderful support talent. Amongst its skills, there was continuous DPS, a large-scale forced control, and a high mobility team skillCCspace-time prophecy. This skill was effective on friendly troops. If it was used at the right time, it could let teammates break through the shackles of time and return back to the state they were at one second ago. What did this mean? It meant that even if Yue Wenle died in that one second, time would go back, and he would be resurrected. The space-time knight was precisely such a bug-level skill. It sounded great, but it was very hard to master. If it was used well, it could bring the dying back to life and turn the battle situation around, but when it was used badly, it was useless. This one second was too hard to grasp. It was meaningless if used too early, and useless if used too late. One second was very short in the game, but in a group fight, it was also fatal. How this one second was grasped depended on how the space-time knight played with time. Just then, 3U took the zither warlock. They also planned to play double support! Tang Chen spoke up again, I want to give it a try. It was rare for Old Soup to be so insistent. Chen Feng agreed, Alright. He wasnt worried about Tang Chens space-time knight. It was just that he was afraid that his teammates wouldnt be used to it. This talent put too much emphasis on teamwork. If their tacit understanding was sufficient, it would be godly. If their tacit understanding was insufficient, then it would be damning. There was no middle ground. Wei Xiao stared at the talent column, Since its double support, Ill use the shadow thief. Hed seen it beforeCC Brother Tangs space-time knight and the captains shadow thief. It was in a game two years ago, when Wei Xiao saw Close for the first time. The author has something to say: While writing about e-sports players pain, I felt deeply for them. Not to mention them, even us who type out words on the keyboard have to stick plasters and struggle QAQ. Chapter 126: Were not a CP. In the 15 minute half-time break. The atmosphere in the 3U lounge was much heavier than FTWs. They were the ones whod won just now, and it was them who had managed to pull back a point, but 3U was so serious that it seemed almost as if theyd lost the game. 3Us coachs expression was particularly dignified. I dont recommend using the storm thief. Asleep didnt speak. Cong Yi said, Its the decisive game. FTW wont take it lightly. It wont be easy for us to win if we dont take it. Coach: Its just a small game in the regular season. Losing a point here has little effect on our total results, and its within a controllable range. 3Us manager also said, This new line-up is our trump card. Its too early to take it out now. The coach nodded. We have to face TPT next. Youre all clear about Fu Li. If you let him see Asleeps storm thief, hell certainly come up with a way to deal with it. When the time comes, things will be difficult for us. In the groupings for this regular season, FTW and RR were in Group A, and 3U and TPT were in Group B. They only cycled through the teams in the other group once, but they would cycle through their own group twice. Compared with FTW, 3U was more on guard against TPT this time. Because being within the same group meant that they were both fighting for first place. In order to fight their way out of the regular season, 3U had made many preparations. New line-ups, new systems, new ways of playing, all of them had been researched and analyzed in depth. Asleeps best talents were from the thief profession, and this was practically 3Us signboard. However, once a certain profession became a signboard, it was easy to target. If the opponent allocated a ban position for it, then it would be useless no matter how excellent you were at it. So, they had to develop new ways of playing, and using the storm thief was one of them. This was a new system that theyd been working hard on for a long time. They had explored a variety of cooperation methods, and come up with a new line-up that theyd honed against foreign competition zones over a long time. If they took it out in the second week of the regular season, what would they do later on? Even if they won against FTW, how could they snatch up number one in the group if they lost to TPT twice? Manager Zhou and the coachs worries werent unreasonable, but Asleep: Storm thief. He seldom opened his mouth to speak, and when he did, his distinctive cold, metallic voice was particularly sharp to the ears. Manager Zhou twisted his eyebrows, and his eyes showed some of his impatience. Asleep: Win. Manager Zhou: Will you lose if you dont use the storm thief? Close isnt even in FTW right now, you guys The coach interrupted this fools words in time and asked, What if you lose? He stared at Asleep. Asleep: Cong Yi, who was to the side, spoke up languidly, If we lose, well listen to you about everything. In this regular season, well play however you tell us to play. Coach: Okay. Manager Zhou raised his eyebrows. You guys The coach looked at him, The games not over yet. The players emotions are more important than anything else. He shot Manager Zhou a look, and Zhou Qing received the hint, but his heart was filled with huge dissatisfaction: Forget it, if Asleep chose to bail, then there would be huge problems with 3U. 3Us lounge was quiet for the last five minutes of the break. Asleep closed his eyes and leaned back in his e-sports chair. Cong Yi sat beside him, slowly drinking his lemonade. Li Chun looked here and there, then decided to shut up and act like a quail. Asleep and Wei Xiaos grudges and grievances were something that the people present more or less knew about. Li Chun knew that Asleep had lost to Wei Xiao many times, so many times that it made peoples scalp feel numb. Cong Yi knew the exact numberCC462. The grandmaster had an unwritten rule. He would only accompany each player for at most 500 games. If it exceeded this figure, let alone 200 yuan per game, he wouldnt play for even 20,000 per game. Asleep and the grandmaster had soloed for 500 games, and hed lost 462 of them. This ratio was so shocking it would make peoples mouths drop open. Was Asleep weak? Being someone who was considered the leagues super dark horse as soon as he entered the professional circle, how could he be related to the word weak? Was the grandmaster strong? He really was strong. It was hard to imagine that a non professional player could have such a deep understanding of soloing. This wasnt just talent. It was hard work, passion, and amazing willpower. After losing so many games, Asleeps obsession with Wei Xiao couldnt be expressed by simple numbers. The grandmaster had once said that he wouldnt play professionally. And hed also said that he would only be an accompanying trainer for 500 games. At the time, Asleep had thought that he would never have a chance to defeat him again. Now Quiet had shown up in FTW. The grandmaster had come to the professional arena and become his opponent. Hed thought he would never be able to win against him again, thought that he would never have an opportunity to play, and hed thought that he would always have to bear this regret. CCWei Xiao was now standing across from him. How could Asleep miss this opportunity? In every solo game, every match, he just wanted to go all out! He wanted to defeat Wei Xiao, win against Quiet, and win against himself! Cong Yi understood better than anyone else the significance that Wei Xiao held for Asleep. It was Cong Yi whod led Asleep to the professional arena, but Wei Xiao was the one whod thoroughly aroused the passion in Asleeps blood and made him stay. Asleep wanted to win. Cong Yi also wanted to win! The commentators were surprised when they saw the line-ups of both sides. Tang Chen took the space-time knight knight. Is FTW going to play double support? The space-time knight hasnt been on the court for a long time. There arent many top-laners who can use it well anymore. FTWs double support configuration is very strong. Will 3U ban the shadow thief? They didnt! FTW took the shadow thief! The scrolling comments had more content, Im done for, Im done for, I want to cry. This old fan is already crying my heart out. God Tangs space-time knight ahhhhh, my Closes strongest back-up! Let me ask quietly, are the morning dew sisters still alive Alive, alive! But my Lulu isnt here! My time is only frozen for you. Ill break through time and wait for the return of the king. Thats right, thats right Some new people didnt know what was going on, Whats morning dew? Who is Lulu? Then, they realized, Lu, LU, Lulu holy shit, you guys are really gutsy! The great demon king even has such a cute cute nickname?! This five year hardcore FTW fan wants to express that the 16 year old Lulu was invincible when he spiraled up to the sky in an explosion of cuteness. The new fans thought about it, Sorry I cant imagine it! When Wei Xiao took the shadow thief, Lu Fengs eyes were filled with his smile. The little nurse didnt know Chinese and couldnt understand the scrolling comments that were flying across the screen. She could only ask curiously, Is this the hero Quiet is best at? Lu Feng explained, One of them. The nurse didnt know anything about the game, but it didnt prevent her from looking at the handsome boy. Hes so powerful! Can your team win? Lu Feng: The little nurse realized that shed asked a bit too much and apologized, I dont quite get it, please dont take it seriously. Lu Feng stared at the screen, Its okay. The little nurse glanced at him, her heart pounding. Sure enough, a handsome man was handsome regardless of race, region, or national boundaries. This aura around him really made people unable to move their legs. However, such a handsome man already had someone in his heart. Ah The little nurse was lovelorn again. This was already the second time today; it really wasnt worth it. Lu Feng was looking at the screen, but his thoughts werent on the match between FTW and 3U. He remembered what Wei Xiao had said to him when he was still in China. Do you know when the first time I saw you was? When they were alone together, Wei Xiao always liked to stick close to him, hooking their fingers together, touching his arms, and when he couldnt hold back, hed kiss him. Lu Feng pressed down his restless hands and was a little absent-minded, Hm? Wei Xiao insisted on touching him. Guess. Lu Feng: Two years ago? The first time theyd met was two years ago, when FTW outbid the other clubs with 2,000,000 and extended an olive branch to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao had left the youth training camp and gone straight to FTW. At the time, he was wearing only a black jacket, his long legs encased in jeans, and his nose was red with cold, but his eyes were black and bright, and his voice was equally clear and bright, Close, can I solo with you? Lu Feng had been stunned for a moment. Hed stood on the steps and looked at the youth standing below him. He was clearly looking downwards, but it was as though he could see the rising sun, breaking through the winter fog and summoning the long lost spring. Wei Xiao: To be exact, it was nearly three years ago. Lu Feng: Where? Had he seen Wei Xiao three years ago? Impossible. As long as hed met him once, he wouldnt have forgotten him. Wei Xiao: In an internet cafe. Lu Feng frowned, I Wei Xiao jumped out of his arms and ran to turn on the computer, easily pulling up a game video. Lu Feng understood with a glance. Wei Xiao pointed to the shadow thief bathed in the current of space-time and said, Back then, I cut class and ran to the internet bar, and what I saw was exactly this scene. There were always one or two extremely fragile moments in ones life. Helpless, confused, lonely, and in pain. Feeling as though one was separated from everything, abandoned by everyone around them, as though their long and distant life would just be bitter and miserable. However As long as there was just a moment, a scene, or even just a casual smile, it could become a dazzling light. A light that shot through the dark and lit up the whole stage! There was no doubt that during that spring, the shadow thief named Close had lit up Wei Xiaos world. Hed carried his teammates expectations in a desperate situation, stood up from death in a reversal of space and time, and forged a bloody path in a guaranteed loss situation. Perseverance, faith, and firmness of will. At that moment, through that scene, endless power had surged through Wei Xiao. A power called Close! Ever since Wei Xiao expressed his feelings, he spoke endless sweet words like they didnt cost money. Whenever Lu Feng felt that his words couldnt be any sweeter, Wei Xiao was always able to come up with another sentence that was so sweet it made his heart meltCC Captain, I got to know you earlier than you think. Captain, I started liking you earlier than you think. Heya, I fell in love with you at first sight, even though you didnt know who I was at the time. Lu Feng kissed him, fearing that he would turn reality into a dream if he continued talking. Sweet Wei went offline, and the little vinegar bag came out again. In the past, there hadnt been so many scrolling comments, but now, the screen was full of them. Especially the morning dew, Lulu, Time only solidifies for you. A whole pile of golden CP sentences scrolled across the screen, and Wei Xiao was jealous enough to die. Morning dew sounds really good. Better than seclusion, better than twin junglers, and better than the great and little demon king. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao was even more jealous, Lulu? Ahhhh, how could things be like this?! Lu Feng poked his eyebrows. Show respect for your elders. Wei Xiao lifted up his arm and looked at him. Lulu! Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiao leaned in and bit at his Adams apple. It sounds terrible! Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao lifted his head up to look at him again. Big brother. Lu Fengs heart stuttered. Boyfriend. Hus...wu Lu Feng blocked his lawless mouth. The Wei Xiao who became increasingly energetic with more kissing pasted himself against him again. How come the CP names of you with other people sound so good? Morning dew, double wind even the pickled vegetables CP sounded interesting. How come it was so difficult when it came to him? Just thinking up a CP name was enough to make him want to go into seclusion. Lu Feng: Because were not a CP. Wei Xiao was stunned, looking at him with wide eyes. Lu Feng kissed him gently, then added in a low voice, Were boyfriends. Wei Xiao: !!! The author has something to say: Lulu, tsk. [back feels cold, lifting up the pot lid and crawling away] xiin: i feel like we need a glossary for all these CP names (and nicknames Lulu~) Chapter 127: Ill break through time and wait for the return of the king. Ah, isnt the situation dangerous for the red team with this wave? The nurses voice brought Lu Fengs thoughts back to the present. The canyon was already taken over by a messy brawl. The red team was FTW, and the blue team was 3U. For those who didnt know much about the game, they could only understand that there was a red team and a blue team. Lu Feng looked at the screen where a fierce fight had broken out between FTW and 3U. The atmosphere in this decisive game was different. Both sides were very serious, and they were extremely tense right from the start. Asleeps storm thief and Tang Chens space-time knight were both uncommonly seen talents, and the audience was very interested when they saw them. Analysis emperors came out one after another, speaking like they understood more clearly than the ten people in the arena. Sure enough, when Brother Tang goes on stage, FTW can play double support! Theyve practiced it before. God Tangs space-time knight and God Qs shadow thief must have practiced together thousands of times in private. When Lu Feng saw this scrolling comment, He was afraid they hadnt practiced it even once together. 3U fans were even more energetic, Ahhhh, my Asleep is really suited for these crazy heroes. Is the storm thief really crazy? It couldnt be seen from the surface. This thief talent spec wore tidy light armor and had the natural and unrestrained temperament of an assassin, but it didnt look as crazy as the berserker thief. The fans explained, Wild storm thief! The passersby: You guys are really having a good time playing with words. 3Us mid-laner, jungler, and support players were like conjoined babies, sweeping by like a gust of wind or a tornado wherever they went, uprooting the grass that was FTW and sending them back home. Wei Xiao was quite subdued in this game. It wasnt that Brother Cai was no good, nor was it that Ning Zhehan was no good. It was really due to the restraints from the line-up. Asleep was escorted by Daddy Cong Yi and a zither warlock mommy. One could apply control skills, add shields, and add speed, while the other could heal, and heal, and heal. What about Wei Xiaos side? Brother Cai could control, heal, and shield, but Little Ning couldnt. Hed picked a fire mage, and his damage couldnt stack up in the early stages. He had short legs and a crispy body. When the tornado swept by, he could only hope that he wasnt swept away. How could he even stand up steadily? It was 3v3 from both sides, but FTW was really subdued. Both of them had double support line-ups, but the nature of the line-ups were very different. If the mid-laner was the secondary support, then they could follow the jungler around across the entire map and even give the experience and farm from the mid-lane to the jungler player. The top lane was a position that couldnt easily move around. If the secondary support player was in the top lane, then there was a limit to how much support they could give. When Asleep ran off to the bottom lane, could Tang Chen cross the entire map and head to the bottom lane to provide support? It was unrealistic. Wei Xiao could either take Brother Cai and fight against Asleep two against three, or he could take Little Ning with him and fight with two and a half people against three. In short, they were really suppressed at this stage. Little Ning felt a little unhappy. Brother Xiao Wei Xiao said, Dont get anxious. Well stabilize our farm, then wait for a wave of small group fights. As a senior hardcore Close fan, Wei Xiao understood the routine even if he hadnt practiced this line-up before. They were suppressed in the early stages, but as long as they could help Tang Chen take down the first top lane tower and liberate the space-time knight from the top lane, theyd have the chance to fight back! Tang Chens performance on the top lane was very stable. Although he was using a second support talent, he was still able to steadily hold up against the other sides top-laner, fighting back and forth, and his farm didnt fall behind at all. It wasnt clear if it was his hot blooded passion, or if Little Lunatic Weis physiotherapy techniques had really been useful, but Tang Chen couldnt feel the strain in his muscles anymore, and his consciousness and state were back to their peak. Tang Chen said, Wei Xiao, come to the top lane. Wei Xiao glanced at the bottom lane. Old Yue, stay steady. Yue Wenle: Mm. FTWs intentions were clearly written across the canyonC- Our second support is in the top lane, and we want to liberate the space-time knight, so we have to crush 3Us first top lane tower. Even the audience could understand this. How could 3U not understand this? They clearly understood. 3Us strategy was also very simple. They could either fight to the death with them in the top lane, or they could draw their attention away to the bottom lane and drive Yue Wenle into a corner. The former was more exciting, but the latter was more rational. At this time, Cong Yi was a little worried that Asleep would want to go up and fight against the grandmaster. But Asleep was already heading towards the bottom lane. Cong Yi was relieved. Lets mess with Old Yue! Li Chun: Got it! FTW went to pressure the top lane, so they would pressure the bottom lane. Even if they ended up trading a tower for a tower, 3U wouldnt lose out on this deal. It wasnt a big deal if the top-laner died as their purpose was to resist pressure. However, it would be fatal if the bottom lane marksman died because they needed to develop urgently. Losing their top lane for the sake of the bottom lane, no matter how they looked at it, 3U would come out on top. How could Wei Xiao not understand something that everyone knew? Close wasnt in the canyon, and he was now the one who had to calculate three steps ahead. Hed naturally figured this out a long time ago, so hed already given Yue Wenle the order. If you really cant hold on, let the tower fall to preserve your life. Yue Wenle: Wei Xiao: If you die, Im going to let Soybean loose in your closet. Yue Wenle was shocked. Youre inhuman! Brother Cai went quiet for a moment, then said, Its really a case where the wicked will be harassed by their own ilk. If this segment of their team chat was broadcast, God Les little sister fans would laugh themselves to death. Who was Soybean? The house demolition husky. Were there clothes in the closet? No, no, no, it was filled with God Les lifelineCCpotato chips. Think about that scene, where a husky was set loose in a closet filled with potato chips. They didnt know if God Le would go crazy or not, but Brother Soy definitely would! This threat was too heavy. The Yue Wenle whod been ganked so much his hands were itchy grew steady. The bottom tower is gone. Keeping the tower was impossible. The mad dog storm thief had already gnawed away half of his health. If he walked a single step forward, Old Yues potato chip treasures would become dog food! Wei Xiao: Its okay. His voice had just rung out when the system announcement rang out. FTW had taken down the first tower in 3Us top lane, and 3U had taken down the first tower in FTWs bottom lane. At the same time, FTW had killed 3Us top-laner Popsicle. Brother Popsicle was crying and howling in the team chat, I feel that Quiet is looking down on me. Why didnt he use eight light arcs to kill me?! Cong Yi stabbed at his heart mercilessly. Because youre not worth it. Brother Popsicle: Dont ask, if you ask, then he had gone into seclusion! There was a gap in the top lane now, which meant that FTWs team mobility had increased. Yue Wenle went back to the base to recover, and Wei Xiao took the double supports and teleported straight to the bottom lane. 3U was very keen, and their positioning was very steady. They were already ready for a fight. 4v4, this was probably the most exciting skirmish in todays competition! FTW had their top laner, jungler, support, and mid-laner, and 3U had their bottom lane marksman, jungler, support, and mid-laner. This wasnt a small group fight, it was a battle as big as Mars smashing into Earth! Yue Wenle was still at the resurrection fountain. Should I go to the bottom lane? If he went over, it would be FTWs five against four, and they would have more of an advantage. Wei Xiao: Go to the top lane. Yue Wenle didnt teleport over. If he went over, they might scare off 3U, and the gains wouldnt be worth the losses. It was safer for Yue Wenle to go to the top lane. Even if FTW lost this group fight, Yue Wenle would still be able to push down 3Us second tower. It would be worth it! A fierce battle was imminent. Theyd been fighting from 6PM to 9PM, and their eyes were already red from all the killing. At this moment, they each noticed the other sides flaws and rushed up like hungry wolves attacking a tiger. The speed of the commentary was also amazing. The hosts spoke as fast as firecrackers, describing the battle situation in rapid bursts. The audience held their breath as they watched, and even the scrolling comments quieted down. All kinds of special effects danced wildly through the canyon. Even if it was across a screen, the viewers could feel the intense visual impact. The commentator said, The storm thief has stacked up the hurricane, with this many layers, its at least at 60 percent! Its still increasing, its going to be full soon! Cong Yis ultimate move has pulled over the four people from FTW! The hurricane meter is filled up; the storm thief started up its ultimate move. A full hurricane will activate the storm; Asleeps damage is going to be explosive in this wave. The storm thiefs ultimate move dealt a catastrophic amount of group damage. Akin to the talent name, his big move was the wind storm. His skills and basic attacks would leave hurricane marks, and he could stack up layers continuously. The hurricane limit could be stacked up to seven levels. Once the ultimate move was started up at that point, the storm thief would stand in the eye of the storm, where all physical attacks would increase in damage by 100%, and simultaneously activate the storm. This storm ignored all shields and defenses, and would directly cause a high amount of direct damage to the enemy. At this moment, the canyon was filled with whistling howls! Wei Xiao, Bai Cai, and Ning Zhehans hearts all chilled. They couldnt hold up against this damage. Tang Chen: Dont worry. The mans warm voice rang out in their ears, just like a big umbrella that was held up above them in a rainstorm, calming everyone down. When the wind thiefs damage swept out fully, the four FTW players health instantly disappeared, plummeting down to a seriously injured state. The storm continued, almost instantly sweeping away the lives of the four. The scrolling comments were going crazy. The wind thief took a quadrakill! Asleeps too handsome! Holy shit, this wind thief is really crazy. 3U is too strong this year. Asleep really has great potential as a player. Only the commentators had seen it clearly, The space-time knight reversed time. Was it successful? Was the time node used correctly? In a flash, the four from FTW whod fallen to the ground with empty health bars all resurrected! There was no need to mention how crazy the scrolling comments were. The entire scene was boiling over! Many people in the audience stood up directly to cheer for this amazing scene! Asleep, Cong Yi, Li Chun, and Yoyo were all stunned. In a situation where FTW were set to die, theyd actually relied on the space-time reversal to allow them to all stand back up again. This Wei Xiao licked his lower lip, Attack! As his voice fell, the unfinished combo that the shadow thief had been working on before it fell continued and launched eight light arcs flying through the sky. Countless blue arcs, like cold fire under high heat, curved like snakes spitting out tongues of flame as it burned their opponents into ashes. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed 3U.Yoyo. FTW.Quiet killed 3U.One. FTW.Quiet killed 3U.LC. FTW.Quiet killed 3U.Sleep. FTW.Quiet quadrakill! This quadrakill originally belonged to Asleep, but because of the space-time knight, it had now gone to Wei Xiao. My time is only frozen for you. Ill break through time and wait for the return of the king. F*ck! Thats too cool! Time-space shadow, starting to ship it! lock it in C theyre shipping a new CP I dreamed back to two years ago. This scene made me cry up a storm! God Tang! Lulu! Quiet! I love FTW! I love all of them! The atmosphere had been pushed up to the peak. This wave from FTW was really beautiful, and the audiences passion almost blew the roof off the venue! FTWs team chat was filled with Badass, Brother Tang. Tang Chen fell to the groundCCAfter Tang Chen had performed his move, Asleep had still managed to take away the tiny slivers of health Tang Chen and Bai Cai had left before he died. Its no big deal. Tang Chen tried to keep his voice steady. Wei Xiao: If I was a woman, Id marry Brother Tang right now! Bai Cai rolled his eyes. Wei Xiao only realized what hed said afterwards, Oh shit, this segment better not be broadcast. He didnt want to have to sleep on the floor two months from now! However, the others didnt feel that anything was amiss. They were already used to Wei Xiaos crazy mouth, and they had heard so much of it that nothing could surprise them anymore. Tang Chen tried to steady the boiling blood in his veins. Dont underestimate them, the game isnt over yet. The game really wasnt over yet. Wei Xiao had gotten a quadrakill, and FTW had snatched up a huge advantage, but the two sides were just even on the farm panel. The storm thiefs rhythm had been too crazy in the early stages, and this only allowed FTW to pull them back to an even starting line. 3Us team chat. The Asleep who almost never spoke opened his mouth, Big brother Yi. Cong Yi: ! Asleeps cold and clear voice was like a piece of ice. I want to win. Cong Yi paused for a long time, F*ck. When a person who never made requests asked something of him, how could he let him down? xiin: somehow, i never thought Cong Yi would swear. he always seemed kinda mild Chapter 128: You guys should first reflect on why youre all so strong. Im going to take a call. Cong Yi was only three days older than Asleep. They were born in the same year and the same month, and their birthdays were only three days apart. In principle, he couldnt be considered that much older, but one call of big brother from Asleep was more than he could bear. However, this Big brother Yi was different. It was a secret between the two of them. Asleep, who had slight autistic tendencies as a child, was unaccepting of everyone, including his parents. It was only Cong Yi, whod played with him from when they were three years old, who was different. Asleep couldnt speak, so Cong Yi would say things for him. Asleep didnt look at anyone, but Cong Yi would help him look. Even the things that Asleep wanted to eat but didnt dare to go get would be given to him by Cong Yi, who would help him get it. Asleeps parents had tried their best to help him speak, but they were unable to guide him. Later on, they had no other way but to ask Little Cong Yi, who was only five years old at the time, for help. Cong Yi taught Asleep how to speak, but Asleep only listened and didnt talk. Later on, Cong Yi pointed to himself, Big brother Yi. Asleep looked at him. Cong Yi: Im your big brother Yi. Hed instructed him many times to no avail, but one time, Asleeps game machine had broken down, and hed finally spoken, Big brother Yi, it broke. For Cong Yi, these three words were different. Asleep really didnt make requestsCCit wasnt that he didnt want to, and it wasnt that he couldnt, but that he wouldnt. His only requests would start with these words. So Cong Yi straightened his back and stared at the screen, Then, well win! Hed always believed that Asleeps genius was different from ordinary peoples genius. When it came to Glory, theyd proved this point! Asleep was a true genius player in the Glory canyon! The commentators noticed 3Us change in momentum, Although they lost a quadrakill, 3Us momentum hasnt reduced at all. Instead, their storm thiefs thinking seems even clearer. Yes, the 3U team has grown rapidly since last year, and theyre able to bring us new surprises with every game. Theyre starting to break off one by one! Cong Yi was 3Us main commander, and the real brain of 3U. Asleep wanted to win, so he would accompany him to win! The space-time knight was very strong, and when it was used the way God Tang had used it, it was simply like a bug. Four people had died, then resurrected again on the spot. This was like seeing hell while still being alive! Yet, they also couldnt say that there was no way to target the space-time knight. Competitive game developers pursued balance in the game. No matter how strong a talent was, there would always be a way to restrain it. For example splitting off one by one. The space-time reversal had a very long cooldown time. As long as 3U could avoid having large-scale group battles with them, the power of this skill would be greatly reduced. The impact of resurrecting one person was completely different from resurrecting four people. As long as they could control the other sides health and avoid killing all four people at the same time, they could completely overcome the space-time reversal! FTW soon felt the effects of this change. Wei Xiao: This brat Cong Yi is really annoying. Brother Cai disdained him grumpily: Who can be more f*cking annoying than you? The audience watched on with great interest, 3Us mentality is really good. If I was the one who encountered that wave just now, my mentality wouldve collapsed a long time ago. Thats why theyre professional players, while youre a noob player. Damn it! I dont know if its just my delusions, but it seems that FTW isnt proficient enough with this line-up. Be a little more confident, what do you mean delusion? God Tang and the team have only been practicing together for a week. How skilled can they be together? Ahhhhh, Im not confident, but I dont want FTW to lose, I dont want God Tang to lose! Seriously The rational analysis emperors showed up, No matter who loses this game, it will have little impact on their placement. Yeah, this is FTWs third game in the regular season. Theres 16 games left, and losing a game here to calm down a little isnt so bad. Previous poster is a hater who should get the hell out. My cub is very calm already, dont force him to calm down! This is also 3Us third game. Losing now isnt so bad, either. They can review the game properly and sum up their experience. Only in this way will they be able to go wild later on. Yeah, its just a small game, and it wont affect the final group rankings. Its great that these two teams arent in the same group. I feel that they can both take first place. This RR fan doesnt agree. Why cant our Moonlit take first place?! This TPT fan is unhappy now. Group Bs number one must belong to our Eurostar! A fight broke out in the scrolling comments again, and the occasional rational analysis was drowned out by the fans arguing. Some fans had been right in their point of view, though. Winning or losing this game wasnt important for either side. The regular season would last for over two months. Each team had to fight 19 games, and it was not only impossible but meaningless to win all of them. In a sense, this so-called regular season was also a series of training matches that the game officials had arranged for the players. It let them adapt to the game, familiarize themselves with their opponents, and try out new routines. The more training they had during the regular season, the more confident they would be during the playoffs. If they shrank back and cowered during the regular season, not daring to do this and that, what awaited them would be death during the elimination system in the playoffs. It was just that the two teams were too serious in todays games, and the fans were too immersed in it, unable to bear seeing their team lose. But, in fact, they all knew that losing a game wouldnt affect their ability to take first place in their groups, and would even bring them some positive benefits. Tripping now was better than falling later. They had to remain vigilant in order to make continuous progress! Of course, no matter what was happening outside the court, the ten people in the canyon were already red-eyed with killing intent. They wanted to win! They had to win! Theyd already fought all the way until now. Who the hell would be willing to lose! 3U had a good plan, and FTW had a good counter-plan. If you break off from the group in order to mess with my God Tang, then Ill split apart and kite the soldier lines, forcing you to run around until your legs break! This wave of operational tug of war began, time marching onwards relentlessly. When the off-stage Chen Feng saw that the game time had hit 50 minutes, he sighed lightly. This group of kids were still a bit too young. But, it was okay. Theyd performed very well, extremely well. Chen Feng was completely calm, and he was also very pleased. 3U had been ready to risk everything this time. The line-up theyd taken out was obviously something theyd worked on secretly for a long time. Asleeps storm thief, Li Chuns zither warlock, and Cong Yis overall planning, all of it was being played to the limit now. On the other hand, on FTWs side, their line-up was something theyd put together for the first time, Tang Chens state wasnt ideal, and the five of them had only practiced together for a bit more than a week. If they were able to win against the 3U that had cut off all means of retreat, it would be a bit too exaggerated. The more they dragged the game on, the less Tang Chen would be able to hold on. The stabbing pain that had been suppressed with passionate blood and strong willpower flared up again. Wei Xiao was the first to sense it, but there was nothing he could do. Asleep, whod remained vigilant the whole time, managed to catch a loophole in FTWs game, and pounced on it like a cheetah. He forcibly started a group fight, and the momentum of thousands of troops swept across the canyon that held ten people! The audience was boiling, the scrolling comments were exploding, and the commentators spoke quickly like war drums that resounded through the sky, setting off a heat wave in the already heated environment of this tense fight. Bai Cai fell. Cong Yi fell. Cong Yi and Ning Zhehan died together. Yue Wenle killed Yoyo, and Asleep took down Yue Wenle. Tang Chen turned back time for Yue Wenle. The Yue Wenle whod stood back up again killed Popsicle. Before Popsicle died, he managed to sweep Yue Wenle away again. Resurrection armor, invincibility blade, extreme damage immunity Countless equipment was replaced one after another through the players high hand speeds. There were only ten people, and the fight only lasted a few seconds, but it felt as though it was fought over a century of time. Finally The storm thief and the shadow thief launched their ultimate moves at the same time. The storms and light arcs that streaked through the sky made the scene look like a brilliant supernova. What happened, what happened? The fans were extremely anxious, Whos left alive! Who managed to remain standing until the end! Commentator A: The shadow thief fell first, but Quiet still has a resurrection armor. He stood back up again! Commentator B: The shadow thief attacked with a shadow and took the storm thiefs head. Is Quiet the one who managed to remain standing? No! The storm thief still had one damage immunity System AnnouncementCC 3U.Sleep killed FTW.Quiet. FTW.Quiet killed 3U.Sleep. The storm thief and the shadow thief perished together! A battle that lasted for an hour, a battle that saw everyone fight to the bloody, bitter end. The end result was that nobody survived. It was extremely quiet in the canyon, and the screens of all ten players were dark. What to do The ones who were closest to resurrection were the support players from both sides. There was still ten seconds left. The super soldiers on FTWs top lane arrived at the 3U base. 3Us bottom lane super soldier arrived at FTWs base. This was now a super soldier competition! What the hell 10, 9, 8, 7 Both sides crystals lost health at the same time under the super soldiers artillery blasts. Cong Yi resurrected! Bai Cai resurrected! The support players from both sides began to clean up the soldiers. As long as they could kill the super soldiers and guard the crystal Victory! There was a shocking cheer from the audience, and 3Us fans all burst into tears at this moment. The game was over. Cong Yi leaned back in his chair, his back covered in a layer of sweat. Fortunately Theyd won If theyd lost, he would be too ashamed to face Asleep. The venue was full of jubilation. The ten contestants didnt move, and it was as though they hadnt yet come out of the canyon. Wei Xiao smiled lightly, Damn, theyre really strong. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao got up and shot Brother Cai a glance, Lets go. Brother Cai came back to his senses, I Wei Xiao: What do you mean, you? Didnt you have a good time playing? It wasnt just Brother Cabbage. The others from FTW were also stunned by his question. There was no haze in Wei Xiaos eyes; they were still as bright as the sun, Winning or losing is very important, but enjoying the game is even more important. Tang Chen, who was right in front of him, felt his heart leap. Wei Xiao reached out a hand to Tang Chen. Brother Tang, we can definitely win first place in our group for the regular season. Losing a small game was nothing. Their regular season journey had only just begun! And in this game, FTW had shown everyone infinite hope. Close wasnt here. Tang Chen hadnt been on the court for long. Their team hadnt practiced together for long enough. They hadnt trained with this line-up. But all of this didnt matter. They had told everyone with absolute strengthCCthis was just the beginning. The great king was waking up! Tang Chen stood up and bumped fists with Wei Xiao. Okay! First place in their regular season group, they were absolutely going to get it! Because 3U won the game, the camera cut to 3U. Compared with how relaxed FTW was, 3Us mood was heavier. Theyd won, but winning had been too difficult. When faced with this FTW that had lost its leader, 3U had actually still been pushed onto this dead end road. They didnt dare to imagine how terrible this team would become when Close came back. In the physiotherapy room, the little nurse was in a daze, About that It was over, it was over, it seemed that theyd lost the game! Lu Feng had just finished his physiotherapy. After saying goodbye to the medical staff, he dialed Wei Xiaos cell phone. At this moment, Wei Xiao was boasting backstage, Im not insisting, but with Brother Tangs space-time knight, if we go back and practice it a few more times, even Y1 will need to kneel down and call us daddy Brother Tang: Bai Cai: Yue Wenle: Little Ning: About that Brother Xiao, thats really a bit too exaggerated, right? Wei Xiao still wanted to continue boasting, but his phone rang. He glanced down at it, then cleared his throat and said, You guys should first reflect on why youre all so strong. Im going to take a call. Chen Feng had just come inside. He almost sprained a leg when he heard thisCCreflect on what?! Sure enough, with Little Lunatic Wei around, they couldnt have any sort of normal atmosphere! Wei Xiao found a place with nobody around and couldnt wait to pick up the call, Captain He missed him; he really missed him. Lu Fengs heart melted when he heard his soft voice. He originally already wanted to coax him, but now his voice became even gentler, You played very well. Wei Xiao had just wanted to say: Of course! That last game was so extraordinary that Laozi even wants to comfort Asleep and tell him not to be discouraged. He should train hard with the storm thief so that Laozi can turn around and hammer him to death later. And then Wei Xiaos ears trembled from Lu Fengs voice, and he wanted to hear more of it. He spoke in an aggrieved tone, We lost. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao squeezed his eyes shut and cried, Captain, I lost. In this instant, Lu Feng believed him. He couldnt help tightening his fingers around his cell phone, and his voice became even softer and gentler, Its okay, its just a small game. It doesnt matter if you win or lose. Wei Xiao continued his efforts. Im so sad Lu Fengs heart clenched, Dont feel sad, you did a good job. Wei Xiao couldnt hold back anymore. How well did I do? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao, who knew that hed exposed himself, stopped pretending. I dont care! I lost, Im sad. Captain, I wont recover unless you give me a ten thousand word love letter! The author has something to say: The captain is filled with heartache, but it turns out that it wasnt necessary hahahahahaha xiin: i love the things that come out of WXs mouth first reflect on why youre so strong hahaha Chapter 129: Mister Lu, if you dont sign in three seconds, well be increasing the interest! A 10,000 word love letter was a bit difficult. Wei Xiao didnt try to make things hard for his boyfriend and said, How about we play 10,000 games of solo when you come back instead? After saying this, he remembered that when the two of them had first met again, LU had bought 10,000 games with him as an accompanying player. He was amused again. Boss? Lu Feng could hear that his voice wasnt faking anything and that his tone really was bright. He was relieved. No need. Wei Xiao was just planning to act up again. Lu Feng: Writing a love letter is better. Wei Xiao: ! Hed just been joking. Hed really never expected to win first prize. Really? Mm. 10,000 words. Sure. For me? If not you, then who? Damn! Wei Xiao couldnt hold on anymore. He licked his lips, Captain, I take these things very seriously. Im really going to believe you! Glorys number one little demon was actually quite sincere. Lu Feng: Its fine. Wei Xiaos heartbeat was chaotic, Then, can I get an advance on it? Hm? Just read the start to me first. Oh, right, dont write it, and dont type it. 10,000 words will make your hands very tired. You can dictate it to me orally, and pay in installments. I wont even charge you interest! Dictation, installments, interest, Little Lunatic Wei, youre really capable! Lu Feng laughed briefly. Little Xiao. Wei Xiaos ears heated. Yes. His answer was very well-behaved. Lu Feng suddenly lowered his voice, Go back to the hotel early and review the game. Im hanging up now. Wei Xiao: His 10,000 word love letter started with a go back to the hotel and review the game?! However, this place really wasnt a suitable place to remain at for a long time. Considering that Lu Feng was also still in the hospital at this time, Wei Xiao didnt dare to pester him more. He just typed, 10,000 words! Lu Feng didnt reply. Wei Xiao grew more energetic. Mister Lu, if you dont sign in three seconds, well be increasing the interest! 3, 2, 1. Lu Feng replied, Did it increase? Wei Xiao: Had the captain not replied back to him deliberately and waited for the interest to increase? What was wrong with this debtor! Too it was too lovable! Wei Xiao wasnt willing to leave. He leaned against the wall and typed to him. For better or worse, he was a little more serious after hanging up. Wei Xiao spoke about some serious matters, mainly focusing on the game. He might be bratty, might be wild, might be sweet, but proper business couldnt be forgotten. For the captain to call now, it meant that he must be worried. Wei Xiao couldnt bear to have him worry. For this game between FTW and 3U, Wei Xiao had made enough psychological preparations prior to the start of the game. Hed stayed up late a few days ago and watched all the game videos for 3U over the recent half a year, including several of their games from the winter training camp. The more he watched, the calmer he grew. The more he watched, the more of an understanding emerged in his heart. 3U was undoubtedly a strong team this year, and their brilliant operations during the winter training camp was enough to let them come out on top as a first class team. There was no need to discuss Asleep, who was an extremely skilled jungler. Li Chun was a bit similar to Ning Zhehan. They were both very well rounded mid-laners who could play well with both assassin mages and fortress type defensive mages. Little Ning hadnt yet had time to train up a support type mid-lane hero, while Li Chun already had a set. He could use both the zither warlock and the medicine warlock, and he played them both very well. Popsicle was a newcomer whod just joined 3U this year. He was a relatively stable top-lane player, and he was basically already integrated into the team. Yoyo was an old player from 3U. He wasnt top-notch in all aspects, but he was very well-suited for the current 3Us jungler core team. He could cooperate very well with Asleep, and was a rare ADC who performed stably with very little resources. In fact, the person whod caught Wei Xiaos attention the most was Cong Yi. Many people thought of Asleep when they saw 3UCCCong Yi was more like a foil, a green leaf that supported Asleep. But anyone who thought about it seriously for a while would understand and see that Cong Yi wasnt a foil, let alone a green leaf. He was the sniper guns eight-fold scope, the oil that lubricated the engine, and the booster fuel that ignited the rocket! Without him, there wouldnt be the current Asleep, and there wouldnt be the current 3U. This man who hid himself in the back was the real driving force of 3U! When looking at such a 3U, the predicted win rate in Wei Xiaos heart was 30%. For them to be able to win the first game, and force 3U to take out this obviously treasured, long-cherished line-up in their last game, Wei Xiao already felt that theyd really scored a bargain! The storm thief, hey. Asleep had played it pretty well. He could give it a try too. Taking someone elses play style and making it so that they had no way outCChe might as well borrow and use TPTs famous saying for once. After chatting with Lu Feng for a long time, Lu Feng asked him, Youre really not sad because you lost the game? Acting spoiled and cute could be done continuously, but when it was time to be serious Wei Xiao: Whats there to be sad about, Im too happy about how strong 3U is. Lu Feng: ? Wei Xiao asked him back, Captain, why does our FTW want to win the world championship? Lu Feng: Sure enough, Wei Xiao was able to poke straight at his heart every time, Its for the whole China competition zone, right? Did Close want a world championship? Did FTW want a world championship? It was the whole China competition zone that wanted a world championship! Winning this world championship wasnt just for FTW. It was also to prove to the world that the China competition zone wasnt weak! The countless players in China, the millions of fans in the China competition zone, the three year slump that the China competition zone had gone through All of this needed a demonstration! They wanted to use the world cup to tell all their fans, the hundreds of millions of players, and the whole world: Glory belongs to us! So Wei Xiao was very happy seeing that 3U was very strong. What he wanted wasnt just FTW to become strong on their own. He wanted the whole China competition zone to rise up! Only such a championship had weight and meaning. Only a China competition zone like this would be able to change its vitality! Lu Feng lowered his eyelashes, his fingers very gentle as he typed, Yes. He and Wei Xiao were separated by tens of thousands of kilometers, but when he looked up, it was as though he could seeCC The ten oclock morning sunshine, the brilliant sun that lit up the whole world. This conversation lasted for more than ten minutes. It was time for Wei Xiao to go back. He put away his cell phone and went back, but when he passed by the bathroom, he turned to go in. They would have to travel for more than half an hour by car. It was better to go to the toilet first. The hall was quite big, and the backstage area was divided into zones. When they were waiting for the game, they and 3U were both in the public area, so theyd been interviewed together. Only after the previous game was over would they go to their lounges, and theyd be separated because the passageways were different. FTW and 3U were the second game of the evening and were followed by another game. It seemed to be RR against HU. Needless to say, RR was an old enemy team, and theyd played so many training matches together that they wanted to vomit. HU was in Group B, and Wei Xiao didnt know much about them. FTW hadnt had a training match with them. However, this club had been in the limelight recently for buying a star player from the European division. The whole team had changed blood, and even the coaching team had been reorganized. Their momentum was fierce. As soon as Wei Xiao arrived at the bathroom, he heard the sound of activity inside. He didnt think too much of it, just treating it as RR or HU whod come over. Then, he heard the dispute. What? Tang Chens always been crappy. He was Yuan Zes substitute for two years, but wasnt he kicked away after the fact? Having a championship ring is really great. A substitute for the Team of Gods, even a dog can do it. Come on, if Tang Chen had even a bit of skill, would your FTW be this crappy? How funny. A former world champion losing to a low-end team like 3U, yet you dont feel embarrassed talking back. If I were you, I wouldve gone home to raise pigs a long time ago. Why stay here to make a fool of yourselves. Oh, your Close has already gone to North America to raise You f*cking Yue Wenle rushed over. Wei Xiao reacted quickly and came up to stop Yue Wenle. The backstage bathroom wasnt big. There were only three wash basins, but four people were standing there. On one side were faces of strangers in HU team uniforms, and on the other side were Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan. It was unknown how long Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had been there, but at this time, one of their faces was red, and the others was pale with fright. Obviously, theyd already lost their heads. The person speaking on the other side was a tall man with short hair, thick eyebrows, and thin eyes. His nose was very high, and his facial features were very three-dimensional, but his temperament was sharp and mean. When the two people from HU saw Wei Xiao, they didnt take him seriously and continued to provoke them, What, not letting us talk about how crappy you are? The crappiest player amongst you is Close. Just look at the Team of Gods. Other than him, who else from the team isnt doing extremely well for themselves right now. In my opinion, he didnt go to North America to cure his shoulder, but to find his next home. Yue Wenle was going crazy, Shut the hell up! The man smiled and said, What, do you even want to hit me? Yue Wenle: You The man had no fear. Hit me, hey, if you want to be banned from the game, then hit me. The backstage area was filled with surveillance cameras. Anyone who dared to move a finger would be caught. Wei Xiao might look thin normally, but his arms were very strong. He stopped Yue Wenle steadily and kept him from acting impulsively. The man looked at Wei Xiao. Youre Quiet? Wei Xiao looked at him coldly. No. The man raised his eyebrows. Wei Xiao: Im your daddy. xiin: you dont want this son, little lunatic~ Chapter 130: Im afraid of owing you so much that Ill never pay it back in this lifetime. These words choked the man on the other side. His face sank, Brat Wei Xiao retorted easily, What, do you want to hit your daddy? The man: Wei Xiao continued, Fight, hey, if you want to be banned from the game, then fight. The sentences were almost the same, but the meaning was totally different. That person from HU had been deliberately provocative, trying to disgust them as much as possible; Wei Xiao on the other hand was like a hammer to the face that let him vent out his anger! Yue Wenle calmed down and no longer needed Wei Xiao to hold him back. The other side had been rebuffed right to his face and was extremely unhappy. He wanted to continue provoking them, You guys Wei Xiao interrupted him directly, not giving him a chance to speak: Stop talking trash. You didnt even know how to write the word Glory when your Uncle Tang started playing games. Having a championship ring really is quite amazing. FTW has five rings. What about HU? Oh, you dont even have a single one. Thats normal, and there wont be one for you guys in the future. Theres no need for us to go back and raise pigs. Isnt there one right in front of us? He had a good memory. He took HUs provocative words and tossed them back at them word by word. When it came to stabbing others, anyone who attempted it on Wei Xiao really hadnt thought it through. The people from HUs expressions grew increasingly ugly. Wei Xiao suddenly leaned in close, his pair of dark eyes staring at the other party, giving off pressure that was as sharp as a blade of ice, condensed and sharp. Dont bring up Close. The man sneered and thought that hed caught Wei Xiaos weakness, What, Close If you say another sentence, Wei Xiaos voice was very light, but it held a hint of madness that nothing could stop, Ill make sure you cant touch Glory again in this lifetime. The mans breath caught in his throat, blocking his voice and making it so that he couldnt speak. He didnt dare to talk. He could see a desperate ferocity in Wei Xiaos eyesCC If you scold Close again, Ill maim you even if it means Ill be banned from the game. When they returned to the lounge, Chen Feng could tell that the atmosphere between the three little ones wasnt quite right. Whats the matter? Yue Wenle remained silent, and Ning Zhehan didnt dare to make a sound, sneaking glances at Wei Xiao secretly. Chen Feng looked at Wei Xiao, Hm? Wei Xiaos expression was heavy. We encountered some dung beetles. Chen Feng: Brother Cai understood a little. F*ck, you guys didnt have a conflict with anyone, did you? This was right under the watchful eyes of the organizers. If theyd made a move here, FTW would be done for this season. Yue Wenle spoke in a low voice, No. He was very ashamed. If Wei Xiao hadnt arrived in time, he might have But when he thought of how the man had scolded Tang Chen, Yue Wenles fists clenchedCC Damn it! One persons achievements that had been obtained over many years of hard work had been turned worthless in the mouths of those dogs. Wei Xiao turned to ask Chen Feng, Coach, which week is our match with HU? Chen Feng: HU? He understood it now, too, You guys ran into them? Little Ning nodded and said in a low voice, In the bathroom He spoke about it vaguely, not daring to mention Tang Chens name. Although he didnt mention it, Tang Chen could still guess at it vaguely. However, instead of feeling sad, he felt warm in his heart. This bunch of brats felt heartache for him. Chen Fengs expression turned cold. He stared at Yue Wenle, What, if Wei Xiao hadnt gone over, would you have wanted to hit those dogs? Yue Wenle: Chen Feng bonked him on the head. When will you f*cking change this temperament of yours. Yue Wenle let him hit and curse at will, and was also quick to acknowledge his wrongs, Im sorry. Chen Feng: If it had to be said that he was angry, then he really was angry. But if it had to be said that it was real anger, then that would be false. This brat Yue Wenle was normally like a little suckling dog, but once he was stabbed by someone, he would instantly become rabid, willing to lose 800 troops in order to kill 1000! But he really was very obedient when he was home, especially in front of Chen Feng. He never contradicted what the coach said, and always did as he was told. He was particularly respectful towards his elders. Chen Feng could recite the schedule from memory, The last game next week is between us and HU. When his voice dropped, the three little ones eyes lit up. Ning Zhehan: Blow them up! Yue Wenle: A shutout! Chen Feng poured cold water on them. HU isnt weak this year. This sentence from Chen Feng could be said to have landed accurately with one hit; there was a huge surprise with the last game of the day. In the game between RR and HU, the audience were all in favor of RR winning. RR had been very flashy in the winter training camp. Their momentum was soaring, and especially for their mid-laner Moonlit C hed played so well that the shrill screams from his fans came one after another. In this game, the RR fans accounted for more than half the venue. They all cheered for Moonlit, for Money, and the light signs were dazzling. HU, on the other hand, had very few fans. It seemed that the small group of people sitting there were all relatives and friends, like a boat surrounded by the sea. It looked a little pitiful when the camera swept over. The more fans a team had, the more haters they had. RRs anti-fans were also enough to cover the earth and skies. Fans yelled that the game was a sure win, that theyd shut out the other side, and that RRs position as number one in their group was stable. The anti-fans took the opposite tone, Itll be funny when they mess up. Sitting around and waiting for the R dogs to cry bitterly. And then They really did end up f*cking poisoned by the anti-fans. Wei Xiao and the others had just returned to the hotel when Brother Cai exclaimed, RR lost. The others all looked over at the same time. Bai Cai showed them the score: 2:0 Not only had they lost, RR had actually been shutout by HU! Yue Wenles eyebrows twisted together, and Ning Zhehans eyes opened wide. Wei Xiao looked at the length of the game. A sudden death game? The match time for the second game was too short. Had RR lost in less than 40 minutes? Chen Feng glanced at it, then knocked on the table. Dont worry about others. Lets first take a look at our own 2:1. Group A was really miserable that night. First, FTW had lost to 3U. Then, RR had lost to HU. Theyd originally thought that FTWs place as number one in their group would be snatched away by RR, but who couldve known FTW was still first, and RR had dropped down to third place due to their low net score. The internet blew up, and a whole group of people scolded and complained, saying that Moonlit was crappy, cursing Money for being bad, and even suspected that RR was purposely messing with their guessing currency bets (a type of currency in the game). The FTW side didnt pay attention to any of this. They reviewed the game for five hours, picking over all three games from the start to the end. In the first game, FTW had won against 3U. Their overall game rhythm was alright, and there werent many problems. FTW lost to 3U in the second match. On one hand, it was due to Tang Chens physical discomfort, but on the other hand, Yue Wenle had also been ganked until he exploded. Whats more, Asleeps berserker thief was really worth a ban spot. Not only was the third game the longest in terms of play time, it was also the game they reviewed the longest. Tang Chens space-time knight, Wei Xiaos shadow thief, Asleeps storm thief, Li Chuns zither warlock There were so many highlights in this match, and it was worth going over again and again to learn from it. If the competition was a classroom lesson, then the game replay review was homework. If they listened carefully during their class, then finished their homework after class, their progress would be rapid. After the game replay review, everyone went to bed early. Wei Xiao looked at the time and couldnt help calling Lu Feng. Lu Feng was in the midst of watching L&Ps game. He got up to leave the arena and went to find a quiet place. Still not sleeping? Wei Xiaos voice was lazy and languid, Love letter. Lu Feng lowered his voice, When I get back Wei Xiao: No way, I want to hear it now. Lu Feng coaxed him, Be good, rest early. Wei Xiao threatened him, Then Im going to raise the interest! Lu Feng: Alright. Wei Xiaos eyelids were fighting against him. Captain, are you going to be so far in debt you dont worry about it anymore Lu Feng could hear that he was sleepy. His voice grew softer, Ill still worry about it. Wei Xiao closed his eyes, his mouth curving up, Hmm? Lu Feng gently sent him into dreamland, Im afraid of owing you so much that Ill never pay it back in this lifetime. Wei Xiao smiled. His heart felt sweeter than honey: Then well be together in the next life, the next next life, the next next next life FTW returned to S City the next day. Theyd only been gone for a day or two, but there was an inexplicable sense of comfort when they returned back to the base. Soybeans ears had been perked up a long time ago. It came flying over as soon as they got out of the car. Ever since the husky moved to the base, its living area had become larger and better. It also ate better, and it had grown stronger and healthier. Its black fur floated in the wind, so sleek that it could nearly be featured in a shampoo ! Brother Soy ran all the way over, pausing briefly just before it reached the crowd. Its doggy head probed in all four directions. Rao? Wheres my male god! Wei Xiao reached out and caught it. You doggy thing! You dont have Laozi in your heart anymore. Soybean rubbed against him in a perfunctory manner, then continued to look around. Wei Xiaos heart was more than a little sour, Whose son are you, exactly?! Oh, if it was his son, then it was also the captains son. Brother Soy really was a good dog with the right thoughts. It was a relatively easy week for FTW that week. There was a game the day after tomorrow, but it wasnt challenging, and they won it quite easily. When Monday came around, the new group rankings were announced. In Group A, FTW was first place, and RR had climbed back up to second place. In Group B, 3U was first place, and the second place was very surprising. It actually wasnt TPT, and was HU instead. Yue Wenle was unhappy when he saw this team. He bit down on his potato chips with a loud crunch. Tang Chen had always been steady. His tone was cheerful as he said, HU is very powerful this year, hey. Little Ning thought about how theyd insulted Brother Tang and felt uncomfortable, But they have bad characters! Tang Chen knew that they were still holding a grudge. He rubbed their heads and said, Alright. He then turned his head to ask Chen Feng, Should we make an appointment for a training match with HU? Chen Feng pondered it for a while. Wei Xiao: Well fight them directly next week. Chen Feng shot him a look, Youre following them and losing your head. Wei Xiao didnt try to explain. Hed always felt that there was something wrong with the HU team, but he didnt have any concrete evidence, and it wasnt good to say more about it, but his feelings had always been accurate. Wei Xiao had watched the game where RR lost to them before. Had RRs level plummeted overnight? Was HU really strong enough to abuse RR? No way. After taking a closer look at the second round, it was more like Moonlit had lost his head. How was that anything like playing a game? It was clearly like something was wrong. In the first game, Moonlit had taken the immortal warlock. This was the hero he was famous for, and he used it very well. It was the talent hed used to hammer Xie He during the winter training camp. However, the immortal warlock in this game had been disorderly and chaotic. It wanted to show its strength, and it wanted to play out the thousand layers of clouds. The thousand layers of clouds was an extreme level operation for the immortal warlock. It was similar to the shadow thiefs nine light arcs and was a series of linked up moves that was difficult to control. Just like how only a few people in the whole of Glory could brush out nine light arcs, very few of the players who used the immortal warlock could use the thousand layers of clouds. This kind of continuous move was too dependent on ones state. If it could be used, it would destroy the sky and the earth, but once a player insisted on brushing it out, it would break the rhythm. In the first game, Moonlit tripped up when it came to this. In the second game, HU still didnt ban the immortal warlock. It was clear that they had left it out for Moonlit to play with. Moonlit had also lost his rationality and snatched up the immortal warlock with the first pick position. As a result 2:0. Theyd lost in a mess. In recent days, FTW hadnt had training matches with RR, and he didnt know how that kid Moonlit was doing. Wei Xiao took out his cell phone and was just about to go to RRs official blog to check up on their latest news. Before he could find RRs official blog, his attention was first caught by thousands of @s. Wei Xiao clicked them open and saw the content: HU.Han Gu @FTW.Quiet, Can you really brush out nine light arcs? The author has something to say: Your daddy Wei: Lie flat and wait. Chapter 131: Had they asked the One Lamp Grandmasters sword? These words were filled with malicious intent. Should he answer or not after getting tagged like this? What if he ignored it? They were all professional players and would be playing together in the next game. It seemed too cowardly to ignore it. What if he paid attention to it? Then how should he answer? Should he say that he could do it, or that he couldnt? No matter what he did, there were still pits up ahead. Wei Xiao was now very popular, and the number of forwards on the message continued to soar. Fans and haters let loose together, dancing about chaotically. The fans: To tell you the truth, its FTWs inherited shadow thief. Nine light arcs can be brushed out at any time. The haters: Its just like a blind cat touching a mouse. If you really want him to brush it out, he wont be able to do it. Fans: My grandmaster was just being modest. Only fools would believe him. Haters: Haha, then why didnt you see him use it in the game against 3U? Fans: Was it necessary? Most of the damage from nine light arcs in 5v5 is just spillover damage. Haters: If he cant do it, then he cant do it. You guys are really quick at finding excuses. Wei Xiao casually browsed through it and saw these remarks that were obviously trying to stir things up. Just based on that little melon head of his, how could he not be able to tell? Hed long felt that the way HU did things wasnt normal, but he hadnt expected them to be so dirty. This Weibo post smashed right into Wei Xiaos face, obviously confirming that Wei Xiao was unfamiliar with brushing out nine light arcs. First came the provocation, then the mockery, then they mobilized the fans mood. It was simply like stringing Wei Xiao up and roasting him over the fire. Once Wei Xiao let it get to him, things would get bad. When the two sides played against each other, should Wei Xiao use the shadow thief or not? If he used the shadow thief, should he brush out the nine light arcs or not? How would Wei Xiao even be able to play if he took this mindset into the battlefield? It was no wonder that Moonlit insisted on showing off his thousand layers of clouds. There was an 80% chance that hed fallen into HUs shameless psychological trap. Wei Xiao sucked at a lollipop and casually forwarded the Weibo postCC Nine light arcs? I said it a long time ago, I cant do it with my eyes open, but its possible with my eyes closed. What about you? @HU.Han Gu. He skillfully tossed the question back to HU. If they wanted to mess with peoples mentality, they should first check and see if they have that level of influence. Did they think that he was a simple-and-easy-to-trick little friend like Little Moon-moon? The fans woke up instantly, asking HU one after another, Oh yeah, why are you focusing on other peoples nine light arcs? Can your teams jungler brush them out? I had a feeling that there was something weird with these words. It turned out that theres something behind it! F*ck, this fellow was doing it on purpose, is he messing with my God Q? The haters loved fishing in troubled waters. If your God Q can casually brush out nine light arcs, would he even be scared of people messing with him? Wei Xiao was too lazy to continue reading. He sent Moonlit a Wechat message. At this time, his phone rang. The word Money was very prominent on the screen. Wei Xiao answered the phone, Morning, Captain Mo. Eleven oclock in the morning. It was actually quite early. Money: I saw your Weibo. Dont fall for it. Wei Xiao had candy in his mouth, and his words were vague, Mm Money misunderstood him and thought that hed already taken it to heart. He spoke hurriedly, Ignore his trash talk. When the time comes, put the shadow thief into the ban position directly. That way, he couldnt use it even if he wanted to, and there wouldnt be any confusion about brushing out eight or nine light arcs. Wei Xiao: Money thought of his own little cub and was distressed, Listen to big brother, dont pay attention to his tone. Its all meaningless, nine light arcs or thousand layers of clouds? So what if you can brush them out? Winning the game is the real hard truth. Wei Xiao pulled out the lollipop and spoke clearly, So youre saying that Little Moon-moon is being a crybaby? Money: Wei Xiao tsked, That group of dogs are purposely looking for soft persimmons to pinch. Money understood what he was saying, but he also didnt quite seem to get it. The dogs were HU, but who were the soft persimmons? Moonlit? You, Wei Xiao? If these words were made public, the China Glory circle would collectively laugh their asses off for three days. The spearhead Moon and rear guard Wei were really soft! Money could tell that he was alright. He was reassured, As long as you didnt fall into the trap, then its fine. Ill coax Moon-moon. The meaning behind his words werent intentional, but the listener took it to heart. Wei Xiao grew unhappyCChe also had a captain who could coax him. His captain was even better at coaxing than Money, but his captain wasnt by his side But Money just had to poke the sore spot in his heart, Old Lu isnt in China, so Id better look out for you guys in his stead. Wei Xiao had originally already been unhappy that Lu Feng was far away in North America, and now his heart was even more sour, with an additional dose of jealousy. Captain Mo, you really have a good relationship with my captain, hey. Speaking of which, other people would call Lu Feng Close. Only Mo Hui often called him Old Lu. Money: Well cough Ive known him for a relatively long time. Wei Xiaos voice was cool, How long. Mo Hui could sense a little something. What, are you jealous? Wei Xiao: Mo Hui: You brat, youre quite protective. Wei Xiao thought to himself: Like hell am I being protective, thats my boyfriend! Unfortunately, he couldnt say it directly. Mo Hui continued, In short, its an old friendship. Dont worry, big brother wont mess with you. Wei Xiao didnt want to accept it. How old of a friendship can it be? My captains only been in the industry for four or five years. Mo Hui cleared his throat. Wei Xiao was very sharp. Could it be that the two of you knew each other from before? Mo Hui touched his nose. We attended the same high school Wei Xiao: ! Mo Hui added quickly, Dont tell others about it, your captain might beat me to death. Wei Xiao was really curious. Which high school? Moneys family background was a mystery, and all everyone knew was that his parents were very rich. He spent money like water, and hed come to play e-sports in order to chase his dreams. It was a very, very, very pure reason; it was so pure that it made even the money-obsessed Brother Cai envy his dream. Mo Hui changed the topic, Its great that you didnt take the bait. Im hanging up now. Wei Xiao wanted to ask more, but the other side of the line was already sending out a busy tone. The captains high school? The captain when he was still studying at school? The captain before hed entered Glory? Wei Xiaos heart felt like it was being scratched by a cats paws. He was incredibly curious! Of course, he wouldnt go and ask about it rashly. Even if they were lovers, there should still be some private affairs that shouldnt be pried into. Wei Xiao wasnt in a hurry. The days were long, and he would eventually know everything about the captain. In view of Moneys warm-heartedness, Wei Xiao decided to reciprocate and help him comfort Little Moonlit. Wei Xiao sent Moonlit a message, Solo? It was like this word of his was a magic word. It was as tempting and fascinating as a meaty bone to some specific people. For example, Asleep. For example, Moonlit. Oh, Eurostar wouldnt come unless his captain ordered him to. Moonlit replied very quickly, Come on. Wei Xiao: You dont mind if I open up a live broadcast, right? Moonlit: Wei Xiao said languidly, Take some pity on me, my captain isnt here. I wish I could just live stream sleeping. Moonlit hated live broadcasting the most, but he felt pity in his heart when he heard these words. Are you helping your captain make up his live broadcast time? He hadnt expected that Close, as the boss, would also have strict requirements for his live broadcast time quotas and would need Quiet to help him with his broadcast time after leaving to cure his injury. Wei Xiao: Thats not it. How could the captain be willing to let him waste his time on this? Moonlit: ? Wei Xiao: The captain isnt here. Its too boring, so I want to live broadcast sleeping for him to watch. Moonlit: Wei Xiao felt a little more comfortable now. Who told your captain to stimulate me? This was called a Wei-style rebound, it was super steady. A group of fans swarmed in as soon as Wei Xiao opened up the live broadcast studio. God Q! Are you going to show off your nine light arcs? Wow, are you so hardcore? As soon as someone provokes you, youll come up to slap them in the face right after? Hurry, hurry, hurry, I love watching nine light arcs the most! This time, it wasnt Wei Xiao, the digitally handicapped. Hed actively shared the live broadcast link on his Weibo. The crowd of melon seed eating onlookers came in at full speed, and the number of watchers soared. Without mentioning anything else, Brother Xiaos ability to do business was really very strong. Hed only opened up his live broadcast a few times in the months after entering the industry, but it was enough to attract the attention of the live broadcast platforms executives. They were already thinking about how to renew their contract with FTW and keep these two traffic explosion suppliers. One Close was explosive enough, but now a Quiet had popped out, too. And there was also the lucky star Bai Cai. FTWs new base was really filled with financial luck! Just Whether or not they could win the championship was unknown. Wei Xiao typed in the game room, What are you using? Moonlit: Anythings fine. Wei Xiao: The immortal warlock, then. Moonlit: Wei Xiao: Come on, big brother wants to see you fly. Moonlit: Shut up. There were RR fans on the scrolling comments. They expressed unhappily, Why drop stones on the man who has fallen into a well? My Moonlits already very sad, okay? The grandmasters not being very nice, hey. Arent these words just like rubbing salt on a wound? Wuwuwu, Moon-moon, dont cry, mama loves you. The FTW fans grew unhappy, too. This is Quiets live broadcast room. If you dont want to watch it, then get the hell out. Its clear that the players are good friends. What are these stupid fans doing trying to stir things up? The room managers showed up and began to clear out the negative comments. Wei Xiao saw them, but there was no need to reply. Taking practical action was much more direct and effective than saying 10,000 words. Whether it was sprinkling salt a wound or bouncing back up was something theyd all know after watching. It was a custom singles game room, and the game started very quickly. Moonlit took the immortal warlock, and Wei Xiao took the immortal thief. There were still people trying to stir things up in the scrolling comments, I thought he was going to brush out nine light arcs. It cant be that Quiet really cant do it, right To tell you the truth, although that HU team doesnt act human at all, the sore spots they poke really hurt. Moonlits immortal warlock really isnt that stable. Wei Xiaos lips hooked up when he noticed this scrolling comment. Wasnt that stable? Ha-ha. Wei Xiao rushed at the immortal warlock, using the second part of his movement skill to slam into him. Moonlit was startled and quickly retreated to avoid his basic attack. Wei Xiao suppressed his soldier lines and continued looking for chances to harass him. These two were old rivals and soon became immersed in the game. In fact, Wei Xiao seldom used thieves when he soloed with people, especially when he was targeting a specific talent. Most of the time, he would use the same talent as his opponent because it was more effective that way. However, when faced with Moonlits immortal warlock, Wei Xiao couldnt use the immortal warlock. It was okay for him to use the immortal warlock to abuse Little Ning, but it wasnt enough if he wanted to stimulate Moonlit. Moonlit had been very depressed over these recent days. He was a straightforward, serious, and persistent person. This wasnt a bad thing for a professional player: conscientiousness meant diligence, and persistence meant that he didnt admit defeat. These things combined with sufficient talent meant that it would be difficult for Moonlit not to perform exceptionally well. Unfortunately, this kind of character also had its defects. It was more likely to break than bend. Wasnt this why hed been successfully targeted by that nest of bedbugs that was HU? The same provocation and ridicule landed painlessly when it hit Wei Xiaos body, but it hurt like a knife was stabbing into his heart and lungs when it came to Moonlit. Because FTW had never arranged a training match with HU, they were only able to shout provocation over Weibo. RR, who hadnt known what was going on, had had a training match with HU, and that was when Moonlit had fallen into their schemes. The immortal warlock, the talent that Moonlit was most confident with. When it came to thousand layers of clouds, he could brush out a peak level combo. But HUs provocation and the fans expectations became an immeasurable burden that pressed down on him, affecting his state. Losing a game didnt mean anything to RR. The most hateful thing was that HU wanted to ruin Moonlit. A peak level player had fallen to his knees with the thing he was most confident with. Hed lost to his own impulsiveness. What kind of huge blow was this? Especially when it came to someone with Moonlits straightforward personality. What if he didnt dare to brush out the thousand layers of clouds ever again? Wouldnt this be a great loss to the Glory circle!? During those 500 rounds of solo back then, it was Wei Xiao whod personally trained up Moonlits immortal warlock. If they wanted to destroy Moonlits thousand layers of clouds. Had they asked the One Lamp Grandmasters sword for permission? xiin: i love the way WX really looks out for the people hes trained up~ his huge heart is pure gold. Chapter 132: Captain, I got bullied! Wei Xiao was very good at stimulating players emotions, especially when it came to these hard-headed nails like Moonlit. Hard-headed nails was actually an achievement title that Brother Cai had given them because they were too willing to make appointments with the grandmaster and willing to take anything. The representatives with this title didnt need to be listed in detail; theyd already become pillars of Chinas Glory circle. Eurostar waved his arms and shouted loudly, Im not one of them! Fu Li pushed his glasses up, You are. Eurostar: I am QAQ. At first, the scrolling comments were still filled with gossip. Later on, the watchers became completely immersed in the canyon. The immortal thief is so handsome. Why is it that everything looks so special when Quiet plays it? Yes, yes, my sage-like immortal thief has the aura of a bandit when he plays it. But its so handsome! Moonlits immortal warlock is handsome, too. After level six, he really can fly whenever he wants to. One immortal thief, one immortal warlock. Im sorry, fellow sisters, but Im shipping something once again! God Q is a real man. The red flag at home is flying strong while the colored flags are fluttering around outside. Red flag at home? Brother Cai. The twin junglers sisters are online and ready to make you go into seclusion, got it? Wei Xiao had good looks, he played well, and his personality was also approachable. It was impossible for there to only be a small number of girls engaging in CPs containing him. In fact, when it came to the room managers, it was better to watch little sisters engage in shipping CPs than watch the haters cursing and raging. In any case, no matter how real they made it sound, it was all false. 15 minutes into the game, Wei Xiao stopped playing around. His attitude grew very serious. Because Moonlit had awakened. At the beginning, Moonlit had still been immersed in his gloom and didnt dare to brush out a thousand layers of clouds. Now, hed been stimulated by the immortal thief and had recovered his sharpness. Once his cooldowns were up, hed definitely fly up to heaven! Wei Xiaos coaxing technique was particularly unique. He wouldnt use any positive words, and he wouldnt soften his tone or use gentle words. Hed first hammer the other partys head until it was broken and bleeding before anything else. However, this worked wonders for Moonlit. After all, he was someone whod come through mountains of blades and oceans of fires. The thing he feared the least was a beating from the grandmaster. Wei Xiao was very serious, and his suppression when he was focused was extremely terrifying. The immortal thief was a relatively weak talent in the early stages, but he still played it with great momentum. His suppression spread throughout the valley, forcing Moonlit to put all his body and mind on the match. Controlling the soldier lines, snatching up lane soldiers, positioning, avoiding skills, and figuring out what Wei Xiao intended to do next. If he was even a little careless, the wolf in front of him would tear out his throat. The sense of urgency was too strong! Everyone who went up against Wei Xiao would have one phrase activated in their mindsCCgo all out! This was also why so many people would lose themselves in soloing with the grandmaster. Those who entered the professional circle were all extremely confident in their own skills. Of these confident players who had the skills and techniques, who wouldnt want to show off? Who wouldnt want to play to the limit? Who wouldnt want to stimulate their full strength? Wei Xiao was able to give them this level of stimulation. The blood in their entire bodies was ignited with passion, and their entire person seemed to be dragged into the canyon. The hands that controlled the character merged into one, and their minds were only filled with thoughts about talent skills, strategy, and thinking about how to kill the other party and win the game! In the recent week, Moonlit had always been clumsy and preoccupied when he played in training matches. Nobody in RR blamed him, and the captain was even trying everything he could to coax him. Even the team counselor had given him advice several times. Intellectually, Moonlit knew that he should never have been so stupid. HU had bad intentions, and theyd been laying out a trap for him from the very start. It was bad enough that hed jumped in, but he was even foolish enough to continue to be affected by it. He was really too useless. Theyd lost the game. Nobody in RR had said anything about it to him, but Moonlit couldnt get over it in his heart. He wasnt someone who was easily defeated. Hed forced himself to take the immortal warlock in the training match, and forced himself not to think about the thousand layers of clouds. But it didnt work. It was like a Pandoras box that had been opened up. If you faced it directly, you would be bewitched, but if you didnt look at it, you would be distracted and uneasy. Thinking about it was the wrong thing to do. But he couldnt help thinking of it. Should he give up the immortal warlock? Absolutely impossible! Face the thousand layers of clouds? How exactly should he face it Nobody in RR could help Moonlit find the answer, and Moonlit couldnt find it on his own. When he saw Wei Xiaos Solo?, Moonlits heart had beat violently in his chest. And Wei Xiao had also lived up to his expectations. Hed helped him break the curse, helped him face himself directly! The scrolling comments exploded, Holy shit, who said that my Moon God cant brush out a thousand layers of clouds? Oh my god, isnt this just brushing it however he wants to?! Did you guys understand how he did the start of that thousand layers of clouds just now? How come I just saw whish, whish, whish, and then the immortal warlock was standing on the clouds? Seriously, if Moonlit has this level of skill, then why is it that when they competed against HU It was probably his mentality F*ck, so HU secretly messed with Moon God? One solo game was enough for everyone to see things clearly. The immortal thief played particularly well, and the immortal warlock had really let loose. 10,000 swords fell from the sky, and a thousand layers of clouds flew up. It seemed that the whole canyon was a scene from a xianxia movie. The two characters dressed in immortal clothing fought fiercely against each other! By the end of the game, the immortal warlock had already brushed out a thousand layers of clouds countless times! Moonlit was very immersed in the game and invited Wei Xiao to play again. Wei Xiao accompanied him to play three games, and Moonlit used the immortal warlock every time while he went from the immortal thief to the berserker thief to the blood thief. He played however he liked, but every game forced Moonlit into desperate situations, forcing him to perform and focus his entire body and mind on the canyon! Only in this way could he get rid of all distractions and put all his thoughts on the immortal warlock. When it came to special techniques like these, sometimes it really needed the player to mindlessly make it happen. Before the fourth game. The Moonlit whod completely lost his head to the game said, Start. Wei Xiao yawned, Tired. Moonlit: Wei Xiao quit the room but didnt turn off the live broadcast. Instead, he opened up his Weibo and typed out a line in front of countless fansCC Your Moon God isnt unable to brush out a thousand layers of clouds, but his opponent really cant. Then, he composed another messageCC @HU.Han Gu, keep working hard, I also want to brush out nine light arcs. This counterattack was really damn cool. Mess with his mentality? To hell with that! These kinds of dirty methods and schemes wouldnt work with Daddy Wei! Wei Xiaos live broadcast session could be described as hitting many birds with one stone. Not only had it stimulated Moonlit and helped him regain his self-confidence, it had also told the netizens who was really behind these things and sent a counterattack right back to HU. They wanted to see people do special techniques? Lets see if you have that level of importance. Why could Moonlit brush out a thousand layers of clouds at will when he was playing with Wei Xiao? Why couldnt he do it when faced with HU? Didnt they find it embarrassing to say that his immortal warlock was unstable? Trash players should first reflect on why they themselves were so crappy! With this, HUs Weibo post had been rendered completely invalid. They wanted to mess with Wei Xiao? Theyd really kicked a titanium plate! Just when Wei Xiao was about to close his live broadcast, a certain rich person came over on a rocket. 300 deep water tornadoes fell down in one go, shooting Wei Xiao a present of 30,000 yuan on the spot. Wei Xiao: The scrolling comments shouted crazily, Holy shit, its Money!!! Look at me, look at me, Captain Mo, do you lack a wife? The type who is particularly good at spending money! Ahhhh, is Captain Mo here to thank God Q? For sure. Why would God Q live broadcast soloing with Moonlit? Its clearly to help Moonlit cheer up and bounce back! Thank you, this is so sweet. Wuwuwu, whats going on with the Glory circle this year? How come each and every CP is so easy to ship? Wei Xiao saw the deep water torpedoes that were still flying around and quickly shut down the live broadcast room. Money: Audience: ??? When other streamers saw gifts, theyd only wish that they could continue broadcasting forever. How come when it comes to you, you would be scared into running away? Are you treating money like dirt?! Wei Xiao really had been scared into running off. Money wasnt inherently part of a human being, and having too much of it was too much to worry about. Mo sent him a message, Thanks. Wei Xiao: 10,000 per game, 30,000 for three games. The goods are delivered, and the bill is cleared. Money was amused, Youre raising the price on the spot. Wasnt it 200 per game when the grandmaster worked as an accompanying player? Wei Xiao: I had zero fans in the past, but now I have three million fans. This is already a discounted price. Money poked fun at him, According to your algorithm, Im the one at fault for not giving you three million. Wei Xiao: Its good that you understand this in your heart. Money scolded him laughingly, Brat. When Lu Feng woke up, Wei Xiao immediately went to him and acted coquettish, Captain, I got bullied. Hed sent a voice message, his voice pitiful and pathetic. Lu Feng, who already knew the full story, The people who bullied you have already been ridiculed across the whole internet. Wei Xiao buried himself in his quilt and spoke in a low voice, Really, they laughed at me for not being able to brush out nine light arcs. I feel so aggrieved. He really sounded quite wronged, his voice soft from grievances. Lu Feng was no longer in a hurry to go downstairs. He leaned against the edge of the balcony, his long legs bending slightly, Dont be aggrieved. A smile bloomed on Wei Xiaos face as soon as he heard his voice, but he still wanted more, I feel very aggrieved, who told you not to teach me hand-in-hand. The corners of Lu Fengs lips curved, Ill teach you when I get back. Wei Xiao loved it to death when Lu Feng used this kind of tone. He started counting the days on his fingers, Theres still more than a month left. Ill already be self-taught by the time you come back. Lu Feng: Then Ill teach you something else. Wei Xiao acted bratty even through his shyness, Can you teach me something outside of the game? Lu Feng held the phone with his other hand, For example? Wei Xiaos face was thoroughly red, his voice growing smaller and smaller, Captain Lu Fengs voice was low, Are you going to sleep? Wei Xiaos voice was like a small feather stroking over the tip of his heart, I want The two of them had been separated for so long. Other than yearning and missing, there was something else as well. Wei Xiao was an uninhibited person, and he wasnt one to exercise tolerance after tasting sweetness. After experiencing Lu Fengs remote guidance once, this brat had become even more energetic. What was the point in doing it on his own? But if it was with the captains voice there too mm After obtaining a little satisfaction, Wei Xiao slept very deeply. He only woke up again when it was 11 oclock the next day. Wei Xiao looked at his cell phone, calculated the date, then asked Lu Feng, Are you having another check-up tomorrow? Lu Feng answered his question with a question, Just woke up? Wei Xiao sent him a voice call as he got out of bed, Let me know what the results are after your check-up. Lu Feng accepted the call, Mm. The physiotherapy had been in progress for nearly a month. There was a check-up every week. Wei Xiao kept in close contact with Lu Feng every day and counted the days daily, remembering these things more clearly than anyone else. He chatted idly with Lu Feng as he brushed his teeth, and by the time he was basically done, it was almost 11:30AM. Lu Feng bade him goodnight. Wei Xiao blinked, then suddenly lowered his voice, Are you going to sleep? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao smiled like a little fox, his tone filled with bad intentions, In fact, I can do it too It definitely wouldnt be as amazing as the captain, but well he could also help the captain. Lu Feng closed his eyes briefly, No need. Wei Xiao stuck his mouth close to the microphone, Really? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao hummed lightly. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao wasnt in a hurry to go downstairs anymore. He sat back down on the bed and said some inhuman things. Lu Feng couldnt listen on anymore, Im hanging up. Wei Xiao had managed to turn himself on, Captain~ Lu Feng sucked in a light breath. Wei Xiao went in and set fire to his heart directly, Im hard. To be honest, flight tickets werent expensive, and flying back and forth didnt take that long, it was only 20 hours. If it wasnt for the fact that he feared causing a stir, Lu Feng really would fly back and do the little lunatic on the spot. The author has something to say: Cough xiin: LF, just get on the plane already WX is going crazy without you~ Chapter 133: Lu Feng: Do you want to solo? Wei Xiao didnt go downstairs until half past 12. Brother Cai disdained him. Stayed up late again? Wei Xiao cleared his throat, No. Brother Cai had already finished eating. He stared at him as he put slices of watermelon on his plate one after another, If you didnt stay up all night, whyd you get up so late? Wei Xiaos hand paused. I woke up quite early. Bai Cai: Then whyd you only come down to eat now? Wei Xiaos face heated, and he turned his head to snap at him, None of your business! After that, he slipped away guiltily with his plate. Brother Cai: ??? Whod triggered him so early in the morning? Oh wait, it was noon. Wei Xiao had played around while the sun was out and ate a little more than usual. He was also filled with energy during the training match in the afternoon. After it ended, he left Lu Feng a message, If we do it before a game in the future, I can guarantee well get 2:0. Lu Feng, who saw this message when he woke up, In the dark room where the sunlight was blocked out by the blackout curtains, the mans long, pale fingers rubbed at his brow: Wei Little Xiao was really still very young. At about ten oclock in the evening, Chen Feng had just finished reviewing the training match when Wei Xiao jumped up. Im going to the bathroom. Chen Feng glanced at his cell phone. Wei Xiao stood up straight, his attitude bold. Chen Feng waved his hand. Go quickly. Ning Zhehan got up as well. I also Chen Feng stared at him. Are you a primary school student? Do you need to go to the toilet together? Ning Zhehan: Chen Feng stopped him. What happened with your ice mage in the game against 3U just now? Ning Zhehans expression was bitter. It was a mistake. Chen Feng smiled coldly. Three hours of ice mage training tonight. If you cant freeze people properly, then dont eat tomorrow morning. Little Ning: Wait, could he go to the bathroom first?! Wei Xiao called Lu Feng as soon as he slipped outside. He wanted to know the results from the check up. It was something that had remained firmly on his mind. Hed calculated the time and figured that the results should be out by now. Wei Xiao wanted to hear the good news too badly. He counted the days daily, and his biggest wish was to learn that the captains shoulder was gradually recovering. He didnt request that the captain would come back early, but he had to come back healthy. The singles competition, doubles competition, team competition. So many, many wonderful games and competitions were waiting for them! The call connected. Wei Xiaos eyes were curved with his smile. Captain, howd it go? There seemed to be a slight pause on the other end of the phone. Wei Xiaos heart inexplicably clenched tight. Lu Feng spoke before he could say anything, It went very well. His voice sounded the same as usual, a magnetic sound with a slightly cold metallic undertone, sounding as though it could carry the current over the microphone. Wei Xiao was delighted. You scared me, I thought that something had happened. Lu Fengs voice was calm. What couldve happened? Wei Xiao didnt say it, Nothing unexpected will happen! Unlucky words couldnt be said out loud. The captain would definitely come back healthy, and his shoulder would certainly recover until it was in a better state than his own! Lu Fengs eyelashes dropped as he looked down coldly at the report in his hand. Little Xiao. Wei Xiao always had the feeling that something wasnt quite right, Hm? Lu Feng covered up the report and said gently, Do you want to solo? Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng glanced at the time, Ill be back at the hotel in half an hour It was now a little past ten oclock, and it would be around 10:30 by the time he was home. This wasnt yet the time when Wei Xiao would go to sleep. Wei Xiao thought hed misheard. Solo? Lu Feng: Yes, didnt you want to practice nine light arcs? Wei Xiaos heart leapt, and he was almost bewitched, No way! The doctor said that you cant touch the game for these two months. Lu Feng paused. Wei Xiao continued quickly, Captain, dont be anxious. It wasnt easy for the physiotherapy to have some effect, dont give up. Lu Feng said patiently, The examination results were very good today. The doctor said that we can play for a while. Wei Xiao was relieved, but he still refused to allow it. Even if you can play, it should be low intensity. You cant solo! No matter how much he wanted to solo with Lu Feng, this was the most critical time for Lu Fengs shoulder, and Wei Xiao would never take any risks with it. Doing something like accompanying him to brush out nine light arcs was even more impossible. Just like how he had to put in 120% of his effort in order to stimulate Moonlit, Lu Feng would also have to work hard in order to force him to use nine light arcs. It hadnt been easy for his shoulder to start its recovery. How could they mess around with it? Lu Feng didnt say anything. Wei Xiao thought that it was because his hands were itching from not touching the game for a long time. He coaxed him softly, Well, your recovery will be complete in another month at most. After that, well solo every day and every night and make up for everything thats accrued! Lu Fengs thin lips moved slightly, his voice a little hoarse as he called out to him. Little Xiao. Wei Xiao couldnt bear to hear him call him that. He clutched his cell phone tight, What? Lu Feng: Go rank. This period of time was for free training. Generally speaking, the players would go play ranked games on their own. Wei Xiaos heart was still uneasy. He couldnt help but ask, Captain, were the check up results really alright? Lu Feng dropped his gaze. Theres no problem. Wei Xiao believed every word he said. His eyes curved again, Then dont worry. I know you feel bad, but you have to persevere. We cant give up all our previous achievements. He thought about it. If he was the one who wasnt allowed to touch Glory for a month, he wouldve started banging his head against the wall a long time ago. Lu Feng replied, Alright. Wei Xiao: Then, Ill hang up? Lu Feng: Go ahead. Wei Xiaos heart settled back down, and he slipped back to the training room quickly. The game against HU was tomorrow. He wanted to be in the best state and have a good time winning! When it came to things like face-slapping, it should be done from the beginning to the end, slapping the other party until they didnt dare to lift up their face or stir up trouble ever again. After Lu Feng hung up the call with Wei Xiao, he took a breath and dialed another number. Xiang Liu picked up very quickly, Yeah. Lu Feng: Hows it going with the contacts? Xiang Liu was a little nervous. The regular season has just started. The active players cant be considered, and those in the second teams have all been evaluated, but none of them stand out Lu Feng: What about newcomers. Xiang Liu was shocked. Could a newcomer handle it Lu Feng: The team is gradually taking shape. Bringing in a newcomer wont be a problem. Xiang Liu hesitated. Then, then Ill contact more people tomorrow and see how it goes. Lu Feng: Yes. Xiang Lius heart was unsettled after he disconnected the call. Two weeks ago, Lu Fengs first phone call had scared him into having several sleepless nights. Lu Feng had asked him to find a substitute, a top-lane substitute. FTW hadnt had a substitute for many years. In Glory competitions, six players would be registered for the team competition. Five starters and one substitute. Most of the time, the substitute in the team would be a player who focused primarily on the singles or doubles games. On one hand, they could substitute in for the 5v5 games, and on the other hand, they could also compete for the title in the other two competitive arenas. FTW used to have a substitute. It had been Tang Chen, but everyone knew that Tang Chen was a real substitute, and Yuan Ze wouldnt give him a chance to play. Later on, the Team of Gods had disbanded, and FTW couldnt even pull together enough starters, so they hadnt had the extra manpower to have a substitute. Last year, theyd won the domestic championship and had a chance to arrange for a substitute. But Lu Feng had refused. His reason wasCCit didnt make sense. 5v5 relied too much on the team. If one person was upset, it would affect the final game in the arena. There was only one substitute spot, meaning that only one position could be replaced. And having a substitute for that person would more or less still have an impact on their state. Was it that the team didnt trust them? Did it mean that there was a possibility that theyd be replaced? Was the substitute better than they were? Lu Feng didnt want the starters to have this kind of mentality, so he hadnt wanted to arrange for a substitute. But now Xiang Liu didnt dare to ask for the reason. Was it that the treatment results werent good? Was this substitute for Tang Chen or Lu Feng? Or was he cultivating a new top-laner? No matter which possibility it was, it still filled Xiang Lius heart with worry. Wei Xiao got up early after a night without dreams. He sent Lu Feng a message, but Lu Feng didnt reply. Wei Xiao saw that it was still early, and Soybean kept butting at him with his head. He thought about how hed given Brother Soy the cold treatment recently and simply went to pull on some clothes, taking it downstairs to run some laps. It was March, and spring had already begun. Many cherry plum trees had been planted in the yard downstairs. When the tree wasnt in bloom, it had purple-red leaves that looked like gorgeous, cascading flaming clouds. After it bloomed, its appearance would change. Large white flowers would cover the colorful red leaves, looking like layers of fluffy clouds that rolled with the spring breeze. Wei Xiao was in a good mood. He found a tree that was in full bloom and took pictures of it with Brother Soy. Brother Soy was extremely perfunctory and didnt even want to look at the camera. Wei Xiao had a plan in mind. He clicked open his screen saverCC Brother Soy instantly settled down and even wanted to pounce on the phone. Wei Xiao scolded him, Face con! He took a photo as he spoke. His screensaver was naturally a photo of the captain. It was a photo hed taken secretly when he and the captain were on a video call. The photo was a little blurry, but that wasnt enough to affect the captains handsome face. Especially when it came to this type of close-up photo; there was really nothing that could be done when ones facial features were so exquisite. Wei Xiao himself looked at it for a while, then tsked and said, Hes really handsome. Black hair framed pale skin, sword eyebrows over star-like eyes, long eyelashes, and a high nose CCHed scolded the dog for being a face con, but he wasnt much better. Wei Xiao sent the photo hed just taken to Lu Feng and added a note, Brother Soy misses you a lot. He hadnt sent out the following message that said he missed him even more when Soybean broke away from the leash and started running around wildly. Wei Xiao no longer had time to pay attention to sending out the message and rushed over to catch him. This doggy thing was more familiar with the environment in the base than Wei Xiao was. It ran very quickly and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Wei Xiao ran around in a few circles but couldnt find the silly dog. Damn it The Brother Xiao who hadnt exercised for a long time was out of breath from running around. He stopped to catch his breath, but he wasnt actually panicking. In any case, everyone in the base recognized Brother Soy, and he couldnt run off. While Wei Xiao was taking a breather, he unexpectedly heard voices talking around the corner. One of them was Xiang Liu, and the other person seemed to be an outsider. Wei Xiao didnt walk out, afraid of disturbing others when they were talking business. On the other side, Xiang Liu was saying anxiously, Theres no need for a jungler position, were just looking for a top-laner. This one sentence made the Wei Xiao who was preparing to slip away freeze in shock. The other person said, Finding top-laners isnt easy. You should already know this. Newcomers always want to play flashy positions. Xiang Liu: Try your best to contact some. Its okay if theyre newcomers. As long as theyre good quality, we can bring them back and polish them slowly. The other person couldnt help asking, This who are they substituting? How can FTW be short on top-laners? Xiang Liu laughed, Just preparing for the unexpected. Wei Xiao, whod originally worked up a thin layer of sweat from running around, now felt cold all over. His fingers curled and flexed uncontrollably. The other person left. Xiang Liu sighed, then headed back. He ended up face to face with Wei Xiao. Xiang Liu: ! Wei Xiao stood under the purple cherry plum tree covered with white flowers. His face was even whiter than the cloud-like flowers, Who is the substitute for. His voice was as cold as a recently melted winter glacier. Xiang Lius brain emptied out. He was flustered, No, its not It was over. Hed actually been overheard by this little ancestor! Something major was going to happen! Xiang Liu was very anxious, but the more anxious he was, the less he knew what to say. After all he didnt know the details of the situation, either! Wei Xiao didnt say anything else and turned to leave. Xiang Liu rushed to catch up with him, Quiet, dont worry. Things may not be like what you think F*ck, the more he said, the messier the situation became Wei Xiaos eyelids flickered. He said quietly, Mm. Ill go ask the captain. Xiang Liu: God damn it, was it too late for him to cut open his stomach to atone for his sins now?! The author has something to say: Its okay, dont panic. xiin: T_T *cuddles the little lunatic* Chapter 134: Im not only Quiet, Im also your boyfriend. Wei Xiaos brain was buzzing, and his good mood from that morning was gone. He walked woodenly back into the house, his slender fingers clenching his cell phone tightly. The captain was looking for a substitute. A substitute for the top lane. Who was it for? Wei Xiao had always been more sensitive to these things. His seemingly casual appearance hid a heart sharper than anyone elses. Many details from before came together, crowding into his confused mind and filling it upCC The pause in the captains voice when he inquired about the results of the check-up and todays inexplicable offer to solo. Bits and pieces of discordant information gathered together, piling up into an answer that Wei Xiao didnt want to face. He closed his eyes briefly, then dialed Lu Fengs cell phone. Lu Fengs voice was slightly surprised when he connected the call, Whats up? They kept in touch for a long time every day, but they usually used WeChat voice messages or video calls and rarely made phone calls. Making long-distance international calls was very troublesome. There was no need to call if it wasnt urgent. When Wei Xiao heard his voice, he couldnt help feeling a burst of sourness at the tip of his nose. Substitute. Who is it for. He didnt try to ease his tone at all, nor did he leave Lu Feng any room to maneuver. He asked the question very frankly. Lu Feng was stunned. Wei Xiao suppressed the tiny quiver in his voice, asking Lu Feng in a tone that was so calm that it was cold, Who is the new substitute that youre looking for going to replace. Was it for Tang Chen? Was that necessary? It was just one regular season. Was there any need to be in such a hurry to find a substitute for that? Although Tang Chens state had its ups and downs, no matter how much it wavered, he would still be much better than a newcomer whod joined without any running in. It couldnt be for Tang Chen Which left only one answer. This substitute was for Lu Feng. Lu Feng. Close. The strongest singles player. Needed a substitute The rims of Wei Xiaos eyes were red, but he didnt shed tears. He didnt even sob or choke. Clearly, as long as he suffered even a tiny bit of grievance, he could go and cry to the captain But this time, he didnt. Hed crushed all his surging emotions back down. After a long time, Lu Feng spoke in a low voice, Little Xiao. Wei Xiao didnt speak. He listened to him speak in silence. It was difficult for Lu Feng to open his mouth. It was half past ten in China, and half past ten in North America. But it was a pity that the sun was rising in one location, heralding a bright and beautiful day, while in the other location, night was falling, a dark and silent night. Just like him and Wei Xiao. It had been a month since hed arrived. The weekly check up reports were on the desk in his suite. One report, two, three They were even more shocking to look at when they were stacked together. There had been no improvement. There hadnt been any obvious improvement after a whole month of physiotherapy. Dr Chen had been right. This place was indeed very good for treating this kind of external trauma. Even if Lu Feng had come here a year earlier, he wouldve been able to recover until he was just as good as before. But hed let the injury drag on for a full three years. From when he was 18 to 21. Hed picked up the broken FTW and lifted it up with his injured shoulder. Everyone only saw the hero whod won three consecutive championships, only saw the young head of the club. Who knew what kind of price hed paid behind the scenes? The price hed paid the effort the persistence Even before he could return, the regret had already arrived first. At the end of the day, Lu Feng was only 21 years old. For an ordinary person, this was still the age of carefree study. For an e-sports player, it was still at the age of reckless pursuit of their dreams. However, for Lu Feng, he had already overdrawn the balance of his health and could see the incoming night. Lu Feng got up and walked towards the bedside. The electric curtains slowly pulled open, revealing the dazzling lights outside. He watched these sparks flicker in the dark and said slowly, The substitute is for me. Wei Xiaos heart already held the answer, but he still felt a bust of buzzing in his ears when he actually heard the words. He stopped on the steps and sat down powerlessly. His long legs couldnt fit themselves on the steps below him, and his short hair covered his eyes, Send me the check-up reports. His voice was as cold as winter snow. Lu Feng: Wei Xiaos thin lips pursed. Send it to me! Lu Fengs voice was hoarse, Okay. He hung up the phone and took photos of all four reports, sending them to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao listened as the phone beeped with received messages. The hand that held his cell phone was clenched so hard that the white of the bones could be seen. In the past month, the sound of receiving WeChat messages was the sound Wei Xiao wanted to hear the most. In the past, as a person who never liked to hold onto his cell phone, he now wished he could stare at his WeChat every dayCC During breaks in training matches, he would secretly send him WeChat messages. Call him right after a game. Before sleeping When he woke up As long as he had time and it didnt disturb Lu Fengs physiotherapy, he would wish to remain in contact with him all the time. When the phone rang, it was like a sound from heaven to him. But now, when he heard this familiar sound, he didnt have the courage to look at it. What if the captains shoulder couldnt be cured? What if Close had no way to continue playing? His faith. His hero. His lover Wei Xiao took a light breath and opened up the Wechat messages with trembling fingers. The pictures popped out one after another. He opened his eyes wide and tried to look at them. It was all in English, and he was a little taken by surprise when it entered his gaze. Wei Xiao concentrated, making use of his excellent reading ability to understand them clearly. The first week, the second week, the third week, the fourth week For a whole month, the advice given by the attending doctor wasCCthere would be no problem for normal life and exercise levels, but there was no guarantee when it came to the fine operations required of professional players. Four reports. Wei Xiao spent half an hour reading them. He just sat there on the marble steps in front of the base gate for half an hour. The cold spring wind swept over, and the heat from the earlier run dispersed completely. The cold air drilled into the back of his neck, chilling him all the way to his heart. Lu Feng sent him a message, The course of treatment is still ongoing. The specific results wont be clear until the course of treatment is complete. Wei Xiao looked at these words that were obviously meant to comfort him, and his heart felt terribly pained. The most miserable person must be Lu Feng, yet Lu Feng was still comforting him. Wei Xiao clicked on the video call button and almost pressed down, but at the last second, he changed it to a voice call. He couldnt see him. His emotions would fall apart. Lu Fengs voice was very calm, Dont worry He hadnt yet finished speaking when Wei Xiao first interjected, Why did you hide it from me. All of Lu Fengs words were gone, dispersing completely with his breath. Wei Xiao lowered his gaze and stared pointlessly at the dark lines on the marble steps, Its my fault. Lu Fengs heart clenched, Little Xiao. Wei Xiao spoke from his heart, Its that Im too weak and cant bear anything, so I cant get your trust. Lu Feng: Wei Xiaos eyelashes trembled slightly, big drops of tears remaining hidden in his eyes, never dropping down, Im sorry. Lu Fengs heart felt like it was being ground to pieces with a blunt knife. It hurt all the way to his Adams apple. Thats not it Wei Xiaos voice was very calm, and hed thought about the words he was saying, Captain, dont think too much about it. Focus on your recovery. At worst, its just that you can only participate in 5v5. He was still unable to finish everything in one breath, so he had to breathe again lightly and continue, The singles and the doubles you can give them to me. I wont let you down. Lu Feng couldnt say a single word. At first, when the problem with his shoulder had been exposed, Lu Fengs thoughts had been the same as what Wei Xiao said now. Hed hand the singles competition to Wei Xiao, and if he still didnt have enough energy, hed also give up on the doubles game. What FTW needed more than either of those was the team championship. But Wei Xiao had told himCCdont you want to win them, too? Dont you want to have a real singles championship? Dont you want to play the doubles with me? Are you willing to watch me play doubles with others?! Lu Feng was unwilling. So hed chosen to let the public know, and chosen to cut off all means of retreat and come to receive treatment. But reality wasnt like a fairy tale. Cruelty wouldnt go away just because he was unwilling. One check up report after another woke him up. He couldnt play the singles, couldnt play the doubles, and may not even be able to hold on until the end for the 5v5. If he retired, the team would be one position short. Choosing a substitute ahead of time and training them up early was the most rational decision. He wasnt just a player, but also the person in charge of FTW. He was responsible for themCCfor the people whod followed him and trusted him until now. Even without Close, he was still Lu Feng. Wei Xiao said earnestly, Theres still a months time. Itll be fine no matter what the results are. He no longer gave Lu Feng any pressure, and no longer forced him to make any decisions. Close had already been holding on for too long. He wanted to be the shoulder he could lean on. Wei Xiaos tears ultimately did fall. He wiped them away, his voice remaining unchanged, Captain, try to believe in me, okay? Im not only Quiet, I He paused, trying to speak in a slightly brighter voice, Im also your boyfriend. CCIm not just a player in FTW. Im also your lover. CCI not only want to chase after you, but also want to stand side by side with you and hold up the new FTW for you. Lu Feng froze. He looked at the countless lights outside, words crowding together in his brain until only two of them were left. Little Xiao. Wei Xiao: Yeah. Lu Feng: Im sorry. Well then, Wei Xiao energized himself, Im going to go have something to eat. Well be going to the arena later. You should go to bed early. Bai Cai was the first to discover that Wei Xiao wasnt in the right state that day! At lunch, he went downstairs and was startled to see a Wei Xiao who was eating seriously. Holy shit, you havent slept all night? Wei Xiao set down his bowl and chopsticks, Im finished eating. Bai Cai: ??? When they went to the venue in the team van, Bai Cai sat beside Wei Xiao and felt the piercing cold air conditioning that was being let out even without words. What happened to spring? How come the weather had suddenly cooled down again?! He summoned up the courage to speak with Wei Xiao, Youve already slapped HUs faces until theyre swollen. Today Even before he finished, he found that he couldnt go on. Damn it, whered this refrigerator come from? His words were turning to ice as they left his mouth! Chen Feng noticed it too. He glanced at Wei Xiao several times. However, they were about to arrive at the sports arena, and talking too much would shake the morale of the team. He held back and didnt ask anything in the car. When they arrived backstage, the make-up artists didnt linger, either. They quickly finished their tasks and bailed. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle also noticed that something was strange and looked over one after another. Chen Feng couldnt bear it anymore and wanted to call Wei Xiao out to talk to him alone. Wei Xiao finally spoke, Coach, Ill take the shadow thief later. Chen Feng was stunned. Ning Zhehans heart thumped. Brother Xiao, dont be influenced by them. It was over. Could it be that those dogs had also successfully messed with Brother Xiaos mentality? It didnt seem like there was anything wrong from their Weibo interactions. Had something else happened in private? Chen Feng frowned. Winning is the most important thing in the competition. Dont go and get triggered by fools. Wei Xiao spoke calmly, Give me the shadow thief. Well win. Chen Feng: Because they were the first game of the day, the matches started on time at three. When it came to BP, HU released the shadow thief as expected. Because of the fuss on Weibo before, many melon seed eaters had come in to watch the excitement. I dont think that Quiet will take the shadow thief. Based on Quiets temper, hes obviously a real man who will go up regardless of difficulties. How could he not take it? God Q, dont take it! Garbage HU only knows how to use dirty tricks. Im not a fan, and not a hater, but Im really curious about whether or not Quiet can brush out nine light arcs. The fans whod all been unwavering in shouting that FTWs shadow thief was inherited all felt a little guilty. Maybe, it seemed like, perhaps Quiets shadow thief wasnt like Closes where he could brush them out whenever he wanted to. The BP ended. Wei Xiao successfully obtained the shadow thief. There was heated discussions on the scrolling commentsCC There were fans: Amitabha, god bless, Baby Q, please dont collapse! There were haters: HUs tricks arent very proper, but your God Q really is shit. There were also the melon seed eating masses, Coming in out of admiration. I heard that there are nine light arcs to be found here? The director cut the camera lens to show Wei Xiao, and the female fans exploded in the scrolling comments. Oh my god, how handsome! Did you really not turn on a filter? Can a boys skin be this good? Im impressed, Im impressed, my eyelashes arent that curly even when I curl them. How come it feels like God Q is in a bad mood? Although it might not be very good to say this, but a Quiet who isnt smiling is very alpha-like! Im willing, really willing. Im 18 years old and short of a 19 year old husband! On the HU side, nobody said anything. Their expressions were dignified. In particular, there was their jungler Han Gu who stared fixedly at the screen. He really wished he could kill this shadow thief thousands of times! The match began. The noisy and lively scrolling comments were all stunned silly after the shadow thief reached level six. Holy shit, who said that he cant brush out nine light arcs?! The author has something to say: Cough, cough. Let me say it again, dont be scared, itll be fine, kiss. xiin: WX C *eyes HU* perfect, ive found some sandbags to vent my emotions on. Chapter 135: FTWs inherited shadow thief The shadow thief was a talent whose lower limit wasnt low, but it also had an extremely high upper limit. His skill mechanisms were very complex and left a lot of room for maneuvering. For example, its first skill, shadow attack. A thief that was in stealth mode could leave blood marks as long as it attacked the enemy from behind. Once an opponent had been marked, it was a bad thing for them, because the shadow attacks passive effect was to automatically refresh the skills cooldown when a target was marked with a blood mark. What did that mean? It meant that as long as a player was good enough, they could kill the other person with only the first skill. Being able to use the shadow attack well was an entry-level requirement for the shadow thief. High level players could basically pull off a whole performance with it. The light arcs were what professional players pursued. The shadow thiefs ultimate move was the light arc, and the description for it was very simple: release a light arc to attack the target in front of the player, causing physical damage. This was an effect that could be achieved as long as the skill was released. The part that really went against the heavens was the skills passive. Light arcs could be stacked up, and the number of light arcs released could be increased by a series of continuous moves. The damage would double with every increase in the number of light arcs. The damage from a single light arc was very low. It was only slightly more than the damage caused by a basic attack, but once it started to double, the damage became terrifying. Two light arcs was double the damage, three light arcs was four times the damage, four light arcs was eight Why did Closes nine light arcs destroy the sky and the earth? It was because the cumulative damage from multiple stacked up layers was terrifying. The light arcs were a ranged attack. As long as the target was standing in front of the player, even if there were multiple targets, they still wouldnt be able to withstand such shocking damage. Back then when Close had used the nine light arcs for the first time, it had surprised even the game developers. In theory, this feat was very difficult to achieve. It required too much from personal operation levels, and the details had to be managed too minutely. It broke through the limits of what a human being could do. But Close did it. At the time, the netizens had been very violent, scolding the heavens and the earth. Some said that this broke the balance of the game and the game couldnt be played anymore; others said that e-sports shouldnt have this kind of bug. How were they supposed to play team competitions like this? The game could end with a 1v5. The crowd flamed the game developers, calling them fools, and flamed Glory, calling it a garbage game. They also accused Close of cheating. Indeed If something went too far beyond what ordinary people could understand, it would be considered cheating. Of course, this accusation was quickly broken down by the fansCClive broadcast, double camera direct recording. The viewers could enjoy watching it however they wanted to. The methods could be handed to you, the combos could be shared with you, and you could use them as you liked. This matter had been a big deal at the time. The game planners had wanted to nerf the shadow thief and reduce the light arc damage. The players had wanted to quit. This talent was already very difficult to play, and ordinary players were already big gods if they could brush out three or four light arcs. If they cut down the damage again, they might as well delete the talent completely! Closes fans were also kicking up a fuss. Why did they have to nerf it?! Their God Lu hadnt cheated, nor had he broken the rules. Were they going to nerf the talent just because he was too strong? After a whole season of arguing, the game developers ultimately didnt dare to touch the shadow thief. Because they found that it was actually fair. It was completely within the scope of the game balance mechanism. First of all, it was very difficult to use nine light arcs. Very few people in the entire Glory circle would dare to rely on doing so. After Close made his combo routine public, there were indeed some cutting-edge players who could brush out nine light arcs, but it was very difficult to do it reliably. The game was unpredictable. The canyon was always filled with the unexpected, and if a player was overly reliant on an uncontrollable skill, the final result would be failure. It was just Close, who was always calm, always steady, who had a strong mentality that let him take the nine light arcs and show off all the way to the heavens. But, if he was the only one who could do it, then it wasnt a big deal. First of all, the shadow thief could be banned in a competition, and the opponents could also find ways to target Close. Soon after, the game officials also tasted sweetness from this problem and were even less willing to touch the nine light arcs. With this propping up the great demon king, the competition stadium grew more lively. Especially when it came to the individual games, the heat and popularity were unprecedented, and their bonuses even soared up along with it. With the colorful nine light arcs, coupled with Closes face, this vivid, living, global spokesman attracted countless passers-by to the game, and the high number of new game registrations made the game officials unable to wipe the smiles off their faces. Later on, Close won the championship with the shadow thief, and the game developers made him his own skin. They specifically made it a point to make the special effects of the nine light arcs so flashy that it could make a video card cry. You wanted to see nine light arcs? Come and watch the game. In any case, the game competitions were run on computer machines with top level configurations, and they werent afraid that it wouldnt be able to render the effects from the nine light arcs. After this back and forth, the nine light arcs remained, and it even let some dirty scheming people find ways to make use of it. For example, HU. HU was really ambitious this year. Theyd put in a lot of effort to find foreign aid players, and the whole team had undergone a big infusion of new blood. Of course, after spending so much money, they also wanted to obtain some achievements. HUs captain Han Gu was the only old player left in HU. When faced with the strong foreign aid players and pressure from the club, he wanted to win so badly he was going crazy from it. The others in HU werent clear about the situation in the China competition zone, but he understood it very clearly. There were only a few strong teams, and the others were all trash. As long as they could win against those teams that stood out, HU would become the number one team in the group! RRs weakness was the most obvious. They were a strong team who were overly dependent on a single player, which made them very easy to target. As long as that players mentality was destroyed, the game would basically be within their grasp. Han Gu understood Moonlit, and he even hated him quite a bit. A rookie, a newcomer whod just made his debut for one year. On what basis was his popularity so high? Why could he be so crazy, so arrogant?! The China competition zone that had been in a slump for three global championships, why did it have to rely on a group of new players to rise back up again?! Han Gu took advantage of the training match between HU and RR to target RR to death. It had to be said that the HU teams level this time was actually very high. Although there were some communication problems amongst the three foreign aid players, their playing was solid. This was particularly the case for their mid-laner WW, who was able to solidly suppress Moonlit. With the addition of Han Gus sniping, Moonlits mentality had already suffered a bloody collapse after several training matches. Then, Han Gu set out the trapCC Moonlit, if you have the ability, then brush out a thousand layers of clouds, hey. If you want to take the whole team flying with your own strength, then take out the same aura as Close. Coincidentally, the immortal warlocks thousand layers of clouds was similar to the shadow thiefs light arcs. Moonlit, who shouldered the pressure of the whole team, was also only 18 years old. After being stimulated like this, how could his mentality be stable? After losing the training matches, he would be even more eager to make achievements in the real competition. As a result They lost tragically. Han Gu tasted the sweetness of success. When he saw that their next opponent was FTW, he focused on targeting Wei Xiao. FTWs situation was also interesting: when Close was there, the great demon king was great on his own, and it was really a situation where one person was dragging four others along with them to win the championship. However, Close had left the team to heal, and theyd signed a newcomer who also performed flashily on his own. His teammates were only worthy of helping to hand him his shoes. If Han Gu was envious of Moonlit, then it was even more so the case with Wei Xiao. He hated him so much his teeth itched. He encouraged their coach to arrange a training match with FTW, but unfortunately, they were unable to do so. Then, hed shouted out his provocation over the internet before the match, but it had rebounded, and Wei Xiao had reversed it back on him. Han Gus heart filled with even more hatred. In todays competition, he just wanted to screw Wei Xiao over until he died! The game had just started when the HU side felt that something wasnt quite right, The opposing Quiet is very fierce. Their mid-laner WW was from France, and his Chinese was really bad. Han Gu: Hold steady, he cant brush out nine light arcs. WW: Eight light arcs are also very powerful. Han Gu sneered, Eight light arcs isnt that easy, either. Hed seen quite a few of FTWs previous competitions. Quiets upper limit was eight light arcs, but it was obvious that he couldnt brush out eight light arcs every time. Most of the time, he only brushed out six or seven. Most professional players could play such a shadow thief. He didnt understand what FTW was being so arrogant about. An inherited shadow thief? It was all a gimmick! With this thought in mind, enemies meet often on a narrow path; Han Gu encountered Wei Xiao in the dragon pit. Bai Cai was following Wei Xiao. He glanced at his experience bar. Do you want to fight? Wei Xiao: Fight. He entered stealth mode even as he spoke and circled around the three people from HU. Brother Cais heart was in his throat as he followed him over. He kept feeling as though things werent quite right. With Wei Xiaos current experience bar, it was enough for him to upgrade to level six with the canyons automatic experience even if he didnt kill any monsters. Two against three Did Wei Xiao want to brush out nine light arcs? Damn it, Brother Cai was flustered: Old Wei first comforted Moonlit, then fell into the pit right afterwards? That shouldnt be the case! It wasnt only Brother Cai. Many other people were worried. The two other little ones on the stage were also flustered. Off-stage, Chen Feng and his assistants were so nervous that they stared unblinkingly at the screen. In the audience, there was also Moonlit and Money who were wearing caps, masks, and scarves, concealing themselves strictly. Money bowed his head to play with his cell phone. Moonlit glanced at him, Watch the game. As soon as his voice fell, he noticed that Mo had opened up the official live broadcast and was sending out landmines. Im sending out gifts to suppress my shock. Moonlit: Money glanced at the LU who was number one on Quiets support list and asked curiously, Didnt this little sister come to watch the game today? LU was now famous. They only liked Quiet and only brushed out hearts and roses using numbers that all announced their love. Their intent was so obvious it couldnt be any more obvious. Moonlit wasnt interested in this kind of gossip. Fans come and go quickly. Money thought about it, This LU Moonlit: It cant possibly be Lu Feng. Money: Of course. Based on his ten-plus year friendship with Lu Feng, unless someone had transmigrated into his body, it was impossible for him to do these kinds of things! In FTWs team chat. The unconcerned and easygoing Tang Chen was calling from the top lane, Do you need help? The entire team was flustered, but Tang Chens mentality was steady, and he didnt feel the chill at all. Wei Xiao: No need. The shadow thief reached level six as he spoke. At the same time, FTW and HU collided head on. Wei Xiao and Bai Cai were up against HUs mid-laner, jungler, and support. Should they fight? Of course they had to fight! Han Gu was using the power thief, the mid-laner was using the spirit mage, and their support was a giant shaman. This line-up had defense, control skills, and DPS. The most lethal one was the spirit mage that was able to sneak around and move everywhere, making it very good at harvesting kills. It was going to be difficult for Wei Xiao and Bai Cai to fly even if they had wings! Go! Han Gu yelled, taking the lead to rush at the shadow thief whod showed traces of his presence. The shadow thief ignored him. A shadow attack suddenly landed on the spirit mage from behind, a basic attack linking up the blood marks, and in a flash, the spirit mage already had four blood marks stacked up. The spirit mage felt that the situation wasnt good, No way, he wants to Han Gu gritted his teeth. Its eight arcs at most. With the three of us here to share the damage, hes going to die as soon as he touches the ground. The giant shaman quickly tossed out its skill, wanting to control the shadow thief. Once the combo was broken, he wouldnt be able to brush out light arcs anymore. However, the shadow thief was as agile as a fish in water, his positioning god-like as he perfectly dodged the giant shamans control without breaking how his skills were linking up. The blood marks locked tight on the spirit mages body, four layers, five layers Not only the spirit mage, but even Han Gu was shocked, He cant, he absolutely cant Nine light arcs burst out over half the canyon, and the stunning, gorgeous special effects left everyone dizzy. Dazzling lights and layers of cascading colors exploded like a newborn universe that came into being amidst infinite power. The three people from HU froze. All they could see were their health bars dropping crazily, from light injury to serious injury to critical health. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed HU.Han. FTW.Quiet killed HU.WW. FTW.Quiet killed HU.DOC. FTW.Quiet triple kill! Nine light arcs at the start of the game, taking a triple kill! Quiet had exploded in this match! The author has something to say: Brother Xiao: Dont ask, if you ask, then I just casually brushed it out. Chapter 136: How was this Quiet? This was clearly Close! What was even more explosive was that these were the real and genuine nine light arcs! FTW fans were proud, filling the screen like crazy, Inherited shadow thief, nine light arcs, FTWs twin junglers are badass! The team that once held a legend like the Team of Gods and had a great demon king like Close now also had a big treasure called Quiet. The old fans all burst into tearsCCtheyd seen the team shine, and then watched as it fell into the dust. Now, they saw that new hope had sparked up again. How could they not cry! They were crying too loudly, okay?! The commentators were also very excited. Todays commentator Brother Big Mouth was a die-hard Close fan and couldnt possibly be any more familiar with the nine light arcs. Unfortunately, hed memorized the set of moves and understood the mechanism, but his hand speed and on-the-spot reaction ability didnt allow him to actually play out this special move. Brother Big Mouths speaking speed was amazing. He spoke at a rapid-fire pace as he explained the combos, making even the audiences scalps feel numb as they listened, their eyes shining and their palms itching. Money, whod mixed in with the crowd. This brats really good. Moonlit remained silent, staring at the shining on the screen, his pair of elongated black eyes filled with fire! Wei Xiao hadnt taken out the shadow thief during their solo games that day. Why? Because it hadnt been necessary. Hed wanted to stimulate Moonlits fighting spirit, but he hadnt needed to take the shadow thief into the arena. Moonlit clenched his fists tight, pressing down his surging desire to win. The ones who were the most confused were the eight people on the field (except for Brother Tang). Brother Cai was stunned for half a second. F*ck, did you practice it in secret? The mechanism for the nine light arcs meant that it was relatively easier to brush out when the hero was higher levelled. The ultimate move was only available from level six, so the overall damage of the skill wasnt very high at this level, making it very difficult to stack up the damage values for so many light arcs. If the difficulty level of brushing out nine light arcs at level 18 was 8/10, then the difficulty level at level 6 was 10/10. Yes, the difficulty level limit was 10. For Wei Xiao to be able to brush out nine light arcs at level six, it meant that he really could brush them out whenever he wanted to. When it was matched up with the words hed said before in the team chat, I, Quiet, can sit right here and brush out nine light arcs with my eyes closed, but Ill never admit that I brushed them out with my eyes open. When it came to putting on an act, Brother Cai only respected Wei Xiao! Tang Chen was still cheerful. Badass. Little Ning also grew excited, Brother Xiaos too handsome! Yue Wenle: Although he hadnt picked up the thread of the conversation, the ice mage was eager and ready for action, very much wanting to rush up and fight a big battle. ice mage C xiin: i suspect that the author actually typoed this, its probably more likely to be the hero Yue Wen-le is playing (a marksman) it doesnt make sense for the mage (Little Nings) to not speak but be excited when he just spoke Wei Xiao didnt talk much that night, but each word was like thunder in their ears, Old Yue, wait for me. Yue Wenle held back his small, tentative step forward. Okay. After taking a triple kill, Wei Xiao rushed straight to the bottom lane. At this time, only two people from HU were still alive. One was the top-laner who was having a one on one conversation with Brother Tang, and the other was the marksman exchanging health with Yue Wenle in the bottom lane. Wei Xiaos movement speed was very fast when he was in stealth mode. Bai Cai couldnt catch up with him at all, but Brother Vegetable wasnt needed at all as the shadow thief shifted right into the opponents face, stacking up shadow attacks on the jungle creeps to reduce his cooldowns before dashing under the tower to kill HUs bottom lane marksman! Commentator Brother Big Mouths voice was bright, HUs gold hunter seems to have scented danger, but the shadow thief moved even faster than he expected. The second segment of his assault took him directly around the back of the tower, and then he used the stone man as a springboard to dart under the tower. The gold hunter used flash very decisively, but unfortunately, the shadow thief who has taken three kills dealt too much damage. Two shadow attacks were enough to empty out his health! Another kill entered his accounts. When they opened up the economic panel, Wei Xiaos farm was already equal to HUs jungler and support players farm added together. For a jungler position to have this kind of terrifying snowballing farm meant that in this game, the shadow thief was thoroughly released from any fetters and could let go completely! They shouldnt even think about suppressing him, and they wouldnt be able to even if they wanted to. Starting from the first nine light arcs, Wei Xiao didnt act stingy with them at all. As long as the cooldown time was up, and as long as the light arcs could be released, nine light arcs would smash into their faces like it didnt cost any money. At first, the players from HU were still trying to remain calm. Han Gu: Its an accident, he does indeed have the ability to brush out nine light arcs, but believe me, he cant keep it up continuously! WW believed him. Thats right, its already pretty good that he could brush it out once in the game. There cant be a second time. Even Close couldnt brush out light arcs everywhere during a game. Perhaps it was because it was unnecessary, but they preferred to believe that it was because it couldnt be done. What a joke. This kind of high difficulty operation couldnt be given out like it was free. Were they immortals or something? It was hard to say if Quiet was an immortal or not, but he was definitely a demon. During the entire game, the sky would be filled with light arcs as long as the shadow thief appeared. Once. Twice. Three times. HU was numb. Their team chat was silent, and everyones expressions were very ugly. It was impossible to win this game. FTWs total economy was 12,000 gold higher than theirs, and there was nothing they could use to turn the tables. Whats more, they had absolutely no way to deal with this shadow thief! Wei Xiao had already reached the max level and was wearing six full pieces of equipment. He was also blessed with Bai Cais support equipment and had those inhuman nine light arcs. The five from HU were completely powerless and unable to fight back! The audience were immersed in watching. F*ck, thats too amazing! Honestly speaking, I dont like this kind of crushing game because theres no suspense, but this match is really too cool! Im not going to say anything else, Im just going to go back and practice the shadow thief! The director put in a small shot of Wei Xiao. It was just a small display box at the bottom of the screen, and it was a direct shot from the front. Reasonably speaking, it should make people look ugly, but Wei Xiao was too photogenicCC The headset pressed down his slightly curly black hair, blocking his pale ears from sight and highlighting the thin lines of his jaw. The black headset cable ran down his neck, catching accidentally on his collar and framing the faintly visible collarbone that was illuminated by the light from the screen. Q fans all took screenshots and shared them everywhere, attracting a new group of players to join and settle in Glory. Of course, that all happened in the future. FTWs first match against HU was simply like the shadow thiefs personal show. From the triple kill at the start to the legendary at the end, Wei Xiao killed everyone in HU. He had a huge farm advantage, extraordinary personal operation, and under this level of absolute pressure, there was no need to think too much about it. Just fight and be done with it! There was no doubt that the red Victory word belonged to FTW here. HU stared at the Defeat on their screen in silence When the camera switched to Han Gu, it showed that his facial features, which had originally held a trace of meanness, were becoming increasingly distorted. He was trying to suppress the feeling of shame, but the feeling of being on tenterhooks made it difficult for him to sit still. His fingers curled nervously, and his mouth pressed together into a slit. The voices of his teammates came over the headset: Strange languages, clumsy means of communication, implicit criticism and doubt All of it poured into his mind until he couldnt help shouting, Enough! The team chat felt quiet, and everyone looked at him in dismayed shock. Han Gu knew that hed lost his composure, but he couldnt help it. WW said, Lets ban the shadow thief in the next round. Things had already reached this point. HU would go crazy if they still didnt ban it. Han Gu: Should they ban the shadow thief? Han Gu couldnt answer. In order to guide public opinion, hed deliberately answered Wei Xiaos words on Weibo. CCWei Xiao: Keep working hard, I also want to brush out nine light arcs. CCHan Gu had replied: Dont worry, HU will never ban the shadow thief. This was a sentence meant to mess with Wei Xiaos mentality, but unexpectedly, it had backfired. Honestly speaking, HU really hadnt thought of banning the shadow thief before. Even if they hadnt had training matches with FTW before, everyone was clear regarding Wei Xiaos situation. No matter how strict the clubs were in training matches, it was impossible for them to keep everything airtight. The fans didnt know, but all the clubs all knewCC Wei Xiaos nine light arcs were uncontrollable. So, they didnt need to target it too much in BP. Releasing the shadow thief and saving a ban position was a good thing. Compared with the shadow thief, the very popular berserker thief was more worthy of being banned. There hadnt been anything wrong with Han Gus words, and hed also been able to suppress Wei Xiaos arrogance briefly. But who couldve known Quiets shadow thief was actually so strong! How was this Quiet? This was clearly Close! How could they not ban this shadow thief in the next match? The audience would flame HU until they became dogs. But if they banned it, then Han Gus face would really be swollen from slapping his own face. HUs coach obviously didnt care if Han Gus face was swollen or not. Their first ban went straight to the shadow thief. The audience sighed, If you have the ability, then dont ban it, hey. Wasnt HU very arrogant? Werent they being provocative? Didnt they say that they would never ban the shadow thief? This face slapping speed was a little fast. And it hurt a lot. Sigh, have some backbone, HU. Let the shadow thief out to play, let your Daddy Q have some fun with it. Han Gu couldnt see the scrolling comments, but he seemed to still be able to hear the sarcastic voices. His nerves were all stretched out to the extreme. The coach sensed it and patted him on the shoulder, saying, Keep your mentality steady. Han Gu froze. Coach: Weve just lost one small match, what are you in a panic for? Han Gus hands and feet were cold. He suddenly understood what a bloody collapse of mentality was like. Hed always engaged in messing with other peoples mentality, but this time he finally tasted it for himselfCC It was like having a huge boulder pressing down on his chest or someone pouring hot oil all over his head. It was painful and tense, but there was nothing he could do about it. Chen Feng looked at Wei Xiao. What do you want to use? Wei Xiao: Berserker thief. Chen Feng sighed, Okay. If he still couldnt tell that Wei Xiao was in a bad mood, then he might as well give up being a coach. But he couldnt say anything. When other players were in a bad mood, they would play games blindly and collapse until their whole world was destroyed. His own cubs style was different. There would also be a collapse when he was in a bad mood, but the ones collapsing were on the other side. Just look at HUs jungler, hed collapsed so hard it was really like his world had split apart. Brother Cai asked Wei Xiao quietly, Brother Xiao, whats wrong? The sun had to be coming up from the West for Bai Cai to call him Brother. Wei Xiao glanced at him sidelong, Do you want to win? Brother Cai: Little Ning shouted, I want to win. Wei Xiao: Mm. It was a single word, a single syllable, yet it inexplicably held the same feeling as the great demon king. Brother Cais heart leapt with worry. He always felt that the translation for these two sentences wasCClie down and settle in. Alright then, hed lie down first, then they could talk about the rest later! In any case, there was an 80 to 90 percent chance that Wei Little Xiaos mood was related to the captain. As long as it wasnt that his confession had failed Holy shit! Brother Cai scared himself into a cold sweat. He didnt dare to think about it, he didnt dare to think about it any more. Brother Cai was worried that his own mentality would collapse. If they lost to HU because of him, he would have to die a death of smashing his head against the keyboardCCit would be better than getting chopped to death by Old Wei. The audiences enthusiasm decreased significantly when they saw that Quiet was using the berserker thief. The berserker thief didnt have the same heaven-defying mechanism as the shadow thief. When it showed off, it wasnt all due to personal operation, but based on team cooperation. As everyone knew, FTW was a fragmented team, and they were still working on their teams tacit understanding. And then The audiences nearly lost their chins. At the start of the match, FTWs mid-laner, jungler, and support all charged straight towards HU. Han Gu was in the process of taking down the red buff creep and was taken by surprise when he checked his field of vision. He panicked and immediately wanted to hide. But the berserker thiefs black scythe had already flown over silently, locking around his throat. Han Gu: ! The level one berserker thief didnt have the ability to pull him over. Locking onto the target only increased the damage of its basic attacks. Han Gus HP was healthy, and it wasnt to the point where hed get instakilled. But This series of knife attacks that came one after another was almost like death by dismemberment. It wouldve been better if theyd instakilled him instead! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed HU.Han. Quiet took First Blood! The scrolling comments were a little delighted, Han Gu was sacrificed to the heavens in exchange for boundless power. Charge, God Q! Chapter 137: I just wanted to tell someone... It wasnt long before everyone realized. The shadow thief wasnt the only hero Quiet was strong with. His berserker thief was also shockingly strong. After taking Han Gus First Blood, Wei Xiao basically lived in HUs jungle zone. It was outrageously impolite. Bai Cai: Old Wei, are we bullying them too much? The first half of FTWs jungle zone was eaten up by Brother Tang and Little Ning. The second half was left to Yue Wenle to take the red buff whenever he liked, and the remaining three or four jungle creeps would be cleared out by Wei Xiao after he finished sweeping through HUs jungle zone. Was this called invading the enemys jungle zone? This was called not even leaving behind scraps for the enemy! As long as people still had a breath of life left, even if HU had been beaten into retreat so badly in the previous match, they would still rise up and fight back after getting bullied like this! Wei Xiao only said, Follow me closely. Brother Cai: Alright, then. HUs side finally broke out after a long period of silence. WW: This berserker thief is going too far. Their support also added, Han, dont be scared, Ill follow you. Han Gu didnt say a word. His fingers trembled slightly, and his nerves were stretched taut. He stared at every bush out of fear that the berserker thiefs scythe might appear. Wei Xiao played even more fiercely in this game. The shadow thief was a low-key, calm assassin, but the berserker thief didnt even seem like a normal person from its appearance: he had wild red hair, a body that was sleek and strong like a cheetah, and a huge scythe that was taller than the character itself. He had a wild temperament and was born arrogant and domineering! When this talent fell into Wei Xiaos hands, it was like it had been infected with an indescribable madness. After killing someone, the berserker thief would enter a frenzied state. His red hair would fly about wildly, his eyes turning bright red. The wrists revealed beneath his sleeves were pale, but powerful, raised cyan blood vessels rushed straight to the black scythe as though injecting the blood of life into the magic weapon. The air roared with brutality and killing intent! HUs support detected traces of the berserker thief and was delighted in his heart. Theres only two people. Four people were crouching in the grass together in order to defend their jungle zone. They could kill the berserker thief in this wave and destroy his prestige. WW said, We can fight! As long as they could control Quiet first and kill the berserker thief, FTWs support player would be done for. HUs bottom lane player also felt this way. It was only Han Gu who felt a little flustered. Had Quiet gotten immersed in the game and didnt care about anything else anymore? Was Quiet playing recklessly, belittling his opponents? Or, was it intentional? The shadow thief from the previous game lingered in Han Gus mind like a nightmare, making him unable to relax. Calm down, Han Gu told himself. Tthe berserker thief doesnt have anything like the nine light arcs. As long as we avoid the scythe and suppress him, hell be easy to kill. Like this, Han Gu comforted himself a little too and cheered up a bit. WW: Han, what are you doing?! Han Gu abruptly came back to his senses. Only then did he realize that hed missed the best opportunity to attack because of his straying thoughts! The berserker thief on the other hand wouldnt miss any opportunities. His scythe flew out and hooked HUs bottom lane player. HUs bottom lane player was a frost hunter. It had short legs and moved slowly, but it used its ultimate move to fly over to try and control the berserker thief. Unfortunately, Quiet moved as quick as a snake and easily dodged the ice arrow that whistled over. It was over. These were the words that entered everyones heart when they saw this scene. A frost hunter, an extremely squishy character, was now very close to the berserker thief. It was like sending a sheep up to the tigers mouth. Quiet killed the frost hunter in almost the blink of an eye! Reasonably speaking, HU didnt need to panic. There were three of them even after one of them had died, while on the FTWs side, there was only Wei Xiao and Bai Cai. Tang Chen and Ning Zhehan were pressuring the top lane tower, while Yue Wenle was on the bottom lane. They didnt seem to plan to go and provide support, and they had a chance to win in a three against two fight. But WW ordered, Retreat! And it was at this time that Han Gu rushed up. WW: Han, you It was too late. Han Gu was in a bad state, and in the chaos, he rushed over to try and stab the berserker thief. Wei Xiaos thin lips curved, Stay steady, hey. These three coldly spoken words were for his opponent. The scythe filled with blood hooked onto Han Gu, and the doubled damage poured out. Han Gu, who was already underdeveloped, instantly lost all his health and returned back to the resurrection fountain. The commentator couldnt help saying, Han made some mistakes in this wave. These words were too subtle. The scrolling comments directly started flaming, Whats going on with Han Gu? What kind of stupid operation was that. Is that the level of a jungler? Laozi can do it too! 0-3-0, even a passer-by game wouldnt have this kind of bad performance. Wasnt Han Gu very wild? Didnt he target my Moon God? What kind of ability does he actually have?! He messed with other peoples mentality, yet as a result his own mentality has collapsed now. Its really karma. Han Gu had really made a big mistake in this wave. Hed gotten distracted at the most opportune time and hadnt been able to keep up. After the berserker thief killed the frost hunter, he shouldnt have gone up to attack, but hed rushed up then instead anyway. What did it mean for a berserker thief to have just killed a person? When it came to having a berserker thief whod entered a berserk state, there was no need to mention two against three, they could even fight two against five and get a pentakill, okay?! WWs signal had been correct. HU had been wise to retreat so that they could attempt to launch a counterattack after the berserker thiefs berserk state ended. Yet Han Gu had rushed over and given Wei Xiao another kill. Killing the frost hunter gave him double the frenzy, and killing Han Gu doubled it again. The berserker thief whod had a huge increase in attack speed and damage was boosted by Bai Cais acceleration skill and practically flashed into WWs face. What could a mage like WW do? No matter how he shouted until his throat was hoarse, there was still nothing he could do but wait to die! This was a vicious cycle. After the berserker thief killed WW, it would then have triple the frenzy. There was no need to talk about HUs support player who couldnt run away quickly; even a flying thief or flying warrior who had multiple movement skills would have difficulty saving their own lives at this moment. The pursuit ended. The berserker thief had taken a quadrakill! The scrolling comments: What a f*cking blast! Thats it, thats it, the four from HU were all taken down by Quiet! It was fortunate that Brother Cai couldnt see the scrolling comments, otherwise hed be angered to death: Did Laozi not count as a person? Without Laozis help, could Little Lunatic Wei go wild so happily?! After taking the quadrakill, the canyon couldnt hold this berserker thief any more. There was a scene of slaughter wherever the scythe passed by. Even the audience would have psychological shadows from this, not to mention the HU players on the court. Money, who was off-stage, sighed emotionally, I now know where Asleeps berserker thief came from. As a team that centered around their mid-laner, RR was most afraid of this kind of jungler who fought like a mad dog. Last year, RR and 3U had fought together many times. As long as they let out the berserker thief, they would get bitten by Asleep. There were no exceptions. As a jungler player, Money felt deeply about Crazy Sleep. Now, it seemed that hed found the culprit behind it. Brother Sleeps berserker thief that had shocked the entire China Glory circle clearly had the same roots as Wei Xiaos! Even its aura was 80 to 90 percent similar! It was true that the berserker thief was more of a team talent than the shadow thief was. Many people felt that Quiet and Close had the same style of play and were heroes who fought alone, making it very easy for them to fall out of sync with the rest of the team. They thought that if he took this kind of talent that relied on team fights, he wouldnt be able to play out its strength to the fullest. Soon, the audience in the scrolling comments were all slapped in the face on a large scale. Quiet was like Close, but he was also very different from Close. His berserker thief was something hed trained up before he joined FTW. In the youth training camp, Wei Xiao and Brother Cai had explored many routines. The berserker thief was one of them. Wei Xiao had never been a single player. Hed always been a strong leader who was more ferocious in 5v5 than he was in solo! This game was even shorter than the last one. If it was said that Quiet had given a one-man show in the game with the shadow thief, then in this game with the berserker thief, it was a show with the whole of FTW together. The berserker thief could provide support very quickly. He went to the top lane, and Brother Tang would soar; when he went to the mid-lane, Little Ning would win a double kill; when he went to the bottom lane, Yue Wenle had already killed the other sides marksman on his own! It was fine to be reckless. Once his teammates gave him enough space to be reckless, God Le would become Daddy Le. It was a game that held no suspense. FTW pressed HU to death with a 2:0. The players shook hands after the game. Wei Xiaos expression was a little cold, but he was always polite in front of the camera. Regardless of what HU had done prior to the competition, there were things that should be done at this time, and there was no need to bring personal emotions to public places. So, when he walked towards Han Gu, he stretched out his hand for a handshake. On the other hand, Han Gu remained motionless. He looked at the slender, pale hand in front of him and was unable to make himself extend his hand for a long time. Theyd lost too terribly. In retrospect, this game didnt look like a professional game at all. It shouldnt have gotten to this point that it seemed like a game where professional players were crushing passers-by. Additionally, HU had bought foreign aid players this year, added extra training, and were targeting the championship cup. Yet as a result The camera was locked on this frozen scene. The audience all saw it, What does Han Gu mean by this? Is he being a sore loser? F*ck, God Q already extended his hand. Isnt he just being disrespectful? This persons character is no good. The competition committee should remove them directly. Why let him play competitively? HUs WW pushed Han Gu lightly. Only then did Han Gu realize that he hadnt shaken hands with Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was already on the way to HUs bottom lane player. Han Gu: Wei Xiao didnt shake hands with him, but nobody would say that Wei Xiao was wrong. Because hed taken the initiative to reach out and had waited for a long time. It was Han Gu who hadnt wanted to shake hands with him. Hed been frozen there for so long. Did God Q not have a temper? Walk away! He was right to walk away! Han Gu thoroughly pulled his thoughts back to the present. He thought about how this scene mustve been seen by countless members of the audience, and he didnt know how they would be scolding him on the internet after this. His scalp grew numb. CCPeople who played with public opinion knew better than anyone else exactly how cannibalistic public opinion was. Theyd won the game, but Wei Xiao didnt appear to be very happy. Brother Cai snuck glances at him, and the more he looked, the more frightened he was. There was no escaping it. Wei Xiao mustve been unable to hold back and confessed, only to be rejected by the captain. Damn it, why mess around with a workplace romance? It was too dangerous! The captain hadnt come back yet, and Little Lunatic Wei had already gone crazy and led the team to victory. Then what would happen when the captain came back? What if Little Lunatic Wei couldnt be able to get what he wanted, causing love to turn to hate, and he led the team to a loss?! Brother Cai was a small and thin little vegetable. He was scared to death by this sadistic love that hed made up in his mind! When it came to the post-game interview, Chen Feng looked at Bai Cai, You go? Bai Cais soul was fluttering in the windCC I go? What am I going for The host would ask: Todays game was really played well. Is there any secret behind this? The secret is that my familys jungler decided not to act human because hed failed his love confession and was in a bad mood. Did Brother Cai dare to say that?! If he said it, there was an 80 percent chance he wouldnt be able to get off the interview stage. Hed have been beaten to death by the director, the cameraman, and the people in charge of lighting and sound. Wei Xiao stood up and said, Ill go. Everyone in FTW: Wei Xiao reassured them, Dont worry, I wont say anything messy. They had the feeling that these words werent very believable. Bai Cai became even more panicked. He couldnt help reminding him, You Wei Xiao patted him on the shoulder. Dont worry. I know whats important. Bai Cai was slightly relieved: Alright then, it shouldnt be to the point where he would make his lovelorn state public. Very soon, Brother Cai realized that hed been relieved too early. There was a live TV in the backstage lounge. He watched as the tall, slender, and beautiful youth in the interview room spoke in a clear voice, I just wanted to tell someone, I can do it. As soon as these words came out, Brother Cais heart thumped hard. But the host just insisted on acting inhuman. They asked deliberately, Who is this someone? Could it be that its the person Quiet likes? Wei Xiao: Yes. Brother Cai: Chen Feng: Tang Chen scratched the back of his head, Ah? Little Lunatic Wei has a girlfriend? xiin: WX C im angry and im just going to tell everyone that i have a boyfriend! Chapter 138: Little Xiao, dont be angry anymore, okay? On the other side of the world, Lu Feng watched the live broadcast in silence. The first match lasted 40 minutes. The second one lasted 30 minutes. Adding on the BP link, it all added up to about an hour and a half. Lu Feng didnt move at all during this time, maintaining the same position as he stared at the screen. In live broadcasts for important events in Glory, the viewer could lock in on a players perspective. Generally speaking, everyone would choose to watch from the god perspective as it made it more convenient to see the overall situation and was more exciting to watch. But Lu Feng only focused on one perspective. In the first game, he only watched the shadow thief, and in the second game, he only watched the berserker thief. The competition results, player operations, team cooperation he didnt notice those at all. He just watched Wei Xiao. Locking in on a perspective meant that the viewer could only see what that player could see. It was similar to playing the game themselves. For example, Lu Feng was now locked in on Wei Xiaos perspective. It was as though he was the one sitting in front of a computer, and the only difference was that he couldnt operate the hero in the canyon. He could only watch Wei Xiao play. In the first game, everyone was surprised and debating over whether or not the shadow thief whod just reached level six would be able to brush out nine light arcs. Only Lu Feng was very calm. Based on that starting point, that damage control, that continuous combo, it could definitely be brushed out. Lu Feng was too familiar with the shadow thief; he was so familiar with it that he could estimate the detailed data of an attack from every trace of movement. However, at this moment, he saw a different type of familiarity. It was Wei Xiaos familiarity with the shadow thief. Or in other words, it was Wei Xiaos familiarity with him. How was this anything like Wei Xiaos shadow thief? It was clearly Wei Xiao in the canyon, using Lu Fengs shadow thief. Lu Feng watched without blinking. It was as though he could see the young Wei Xiaoxiao. Stubbornly propping up his home that was missing pillars, persisting in growing up amidst the wind and rain, proving stubbornly to everyoneCC I can do it. Im very strong. I dont need to rely on anyone and can still be the best! Lu Fengs heart hurt. He wanted to support Wei Xiao, wanted him to rely on him, wanted to see him live freely and easily, and have a simple and happy life. But Hed given him new pressure and pain. Lu Feng leaned back against his chair and could only feel the slight pain in his shoulder. The nine light arcs that flashed brilliantly in the canyon shone in his eyes, bringing out the darkness hidden in the depths of his soul. Lu Feng thought that hed stopped resenting Lu Mingze a long time ago. When his mother cried when he was a child, Lu Feng had hated him. When he saw his absurd lifestyle, Lu Feng had blamed him. After being locked in a dark house and left to starve for three days and three nights, Lu Feng had wanted to go up and fight against him. Later, Lu Feng had let it all go. Lu Mingze wasnt worth his hate, wasnt worth him thinking of him, and not worth him ruining his life over. Today, Lu Feng found that he still hated him. Hed destroyed too much of him. Why couldnt he at least have left him a piece of clean soil to work with? If he hadnt been injured, if his shoulder was still good, wouldnt he be able to accompany Wei Xiao to continue forward? The singles, the doubles, the team competition. In this competition arena that had given him light during his darkest time, would he have been able to freeze time at the moment when the light shone the most brilliantly? If he hadnt met Wei Xiao. Lu Feng wouldnt have been so unreconciled. People always had to move forward. Those whod experienced too many disasters would have long become used to regret. What Lu Feng could do was to do the best he could with what he had. Make choices, then stick with them. No regrets. But now He was unreconciled. He didnt want Wei Xiao to have regrets. He could get used to it, but he couldnt tolerate that Wei Xiao would have to compromise. This eye-catching youth who was like a brilliant sun. He should only be bathed in dazzling light that held no haze. In these two matches, nobody could get a handle on Wei Xiaos mood. Only Lu FengCC Across the ocean, across the dawn and sunset, he could sense all of Wei Xiaos moods. The cold and cool shadow thief, the arrogant berserker thief, the endless slaughter in the canyon, all of it reflected a restless heart. He was so uneasy, so helpless, so afraid, yet he was still stubbornly remaining strong. Wei Xiao was still stubbornly telling Lu Feng, I can do it. Lu Feng closed his eyes. The blood gushing out from his heart felt both bitter and astringent, numbing his limbs. Hed said he would protect him. Hed said that he would give him happiness. Yet in the end, he was the one being protected, the one being taken care of. Wei Xiao. Wei Little Xiao Wei Xiaos amazing speech exploded across the whole internet. The girlfriend fans whod fallen for Quiets little face, his strength that could overturn the canyon, and also his various flashy operations all exploded at once. Who is it?!!! Which little bitch abducted my God Q?! I wont allow it, I wont allow it. My husbands only 19 years old, he cant fall in love early! 19 isnt that early, but Im only 16. God Q, wait for me! There were also tens of thousands of mama fans. Baby Q, dont get cheated by bad women ahhhh! Baby Q, be obedient. Lets concentrate on the game, dont let your heart and body get cheated away! The CP fans ships collapsed directly. Ive known for a long time that everyone in the Glory circle are straight men, but My watering vegetables CP, my twin junglers CP, sorry Ive really become a seclusion sister at this time. watering vegetables C Wei Xiao x Bai Cai Of course, there were the sour and jealous straight men. It must be LU from the support rankings. Tsk tsk, you havent made any real achievements yet, but youve already gotten yourself a rich woman. Its e-sports, what kind of love relationship are you trying to have? Have you gotten first place in the regular season, a grand slam in the playoffs, and the global championship trophy yet? Are you already so full of yourself after winning just a few games? Im just going to sit and wait for FTW to mess up. Their captain left the team, and their newcomer fell in love. The rest consist of the old, weak, sick, and disabled. FTW is going to be useless this season! These words were too provocative. FTWs game fans swarmed up, forgetting about a small thing like falling in love. They were first going to flame the haters until their heads were bloody before talking about anything else! When Wei Xiao returned backstage, the lounge was filled with silence. Chen Feng, as someone who knew the situation, didnt know what to say, and Brother Cai, as half an insider, was extremely flustered, worried that hed come out of the closet on the spot. Tang Chen and Little Nings thoughts were completely off track. Is it that LU? Wei Xiao: Brother Cais inner thoughts: Its Lu, but its not LU!! Wei Xiao nodded. Yes. Tang Chen and Little Ning: !!! Brother Cai abruptly turned his head to look at him: Holy shit? Chen Feng couldnt continue listening anymore. Theyd only just started, yet he was already making trouble. Were they still aiming to get number one in the group or not! Lets go. Chen Fengs voice was cold yet compelling. Back to the base and review the game. Little Ning and Brother Tang fell silent, but Bai Cai was writing out 100,000 words in his heartCC What was the situation? What did Wei Xiao say yes for? LU was the captain? That legendary number one fan in Wei Xiaos support rankings was the captain? Brother Cai was dazzled. As the Gossip Emperor, he understood a lot. For example, every time LU sent Wei Xiao gifts, it was always hearts and roses, and the number of gifts were very unique. 520 gifts, 1314 gifts. It was like a confession every time, and simply couldnt be more obvious and direct. With that That was the captain? Speaking of which, last time when Wei Xiao and Asleep had been streaming, the captain had also given him 1314 gifts. At the time, Bai Cai had thought that it was Wei Xiao whod tricked the captain so that he could eat some sugar for himself. Now, when he looked back Bai Cai was shocked silly. Hed scared himself with his own thoughts. Could it be, maybe, did it mean The two of them Had the two of them been together for a long time?! A cold wind blew over as soon as they stepped out of the arena. Brother Cai calmed down. What was he thinking! Even without discussing whether or not the captains character settings had collapsed or not, just simply based on Wei Xiaos current appearance, it didnt seem like it. If that fake LU was the captain, then why would Wei Xiao look like he was lovelorn? Why would he act up and go crazy all night? If the two of them were already in love, wouldnt Wei Xiao be up in heaven? Why would he appear so cold and chilly like he was a refrigerator? It didnt make sense! Based on Brother Cais understanding of Wei Xiao over several years, once this guys heart was blooming with happiness, he would be both snarky and bratty, and his coquettish words would be enough to drown out the whole venue. But look at his current appearance. It was 100% certain that he was in a bad mood, and it was an incredibly bad, super terrible mood. Who could make his mood swing to rock bottom? Other than the captain, there was nobody else. Why would the Wei Xiao whose red heart was pointed at Close feel so sad? There was only one reasonC- Lovelorn! Bai Cai went back and forth and logically came to his final answer: Wei Xiao was lovelorn. The reason why he admitted to Little Ning and the others that LU was the person he liked was just to cover up the truth. He couldnt just say that he liked the captain, right? As soon as he said that, Little Ning might kick the bucket. How would FTW play tomorrows game?! Oh, they wouldnt even have to play in the regular season at all. Where were they supposed to go look for a new mid-laner?! With this in mind, Bai Cai had figured it all out. In short, LU couldnt be the captain. Based on that style, that 5201314, even if the name was changed to Soybean, he still wouldnt believe that that was FTWs cold and cool great demon king! Wei Xiaos cell phone rang just as they returned to the base and got out of the car. Bai Cai tried to sneak a peek. Wei Xiao held down the screen so that he couldnt see. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Im going to take a call first. Chen Feng nodded, Mm. Wei Xiao went straight upstairs, going back to his room. After locking the door, his fingertips gently unlocked the screen. The name that lived right at the tip of his heart entered his eyesCCClose. Wei Xiao took a light breath, pressing down the sour and astringent feeling that rushed up. He connected the call, Captain. He tried to keep his voice even. Lu Feng: Just listening to the sound of his breathing made Wei Xiaos eyes grow red, Did you just wake up? Lu Feng: I havent slept. His low voice rang out in the quiet room, making it even more quiet. Wei Xiao paused. You still have to go do your physiotherapy today. If you didnt sleep all night Lu Feng interrupted him, I watched the game. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng whispered, You played well. Wei Xiao had heard him say these words to him after every game. But it was different this time. Wei Xiaos chest seemed to have been sprinkled with a handful of salt when he heard him say these words. It made his insides burn with pain. Were going to review the game in a bit. Im going to Wei Xiao wanted to hang up. He didnt want to cry until his eyes were red before going to the training room. It was too hard to explain, and he also didnt want to explain. But Lu Feng called out to him softly, Little Xiao. Wei Xiao leaned back against the door, his body as stiff as if hed been standing out in the cold winter for an hour, Yeah. Lu Feng continued, In the future, Ill tell you everything. Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide. The hand that was hanging to the side reached behind him, searching for the doorknob for support. It was a little difficult for Lu Feng to speak, but he was very serious, Its not that I dont believe in you. Its just that Im not used to it. He wasnt used to communicating with others, wasnt used to sharing things with others. He was even less used to having a Little Xiao behind him that he could rely on. Wei Xiaos lips trembled. He couldnt say anything. Little Xiao, Lu Fengs voice was extremely gentle, Dont be angry anymore, okay? Wei Xiao held back for a long time but still ended up crying like a mess. He didnt make any sound, but his tears flowed fiercely. If anyone saw this scene, they would be surprised that a single person could shed so many tears. Captain Mm. Next week Can you send me the check-up report directly? Lu Feng replied, Alright. Lu Feng had a check-up every Friday. There was also a game between FTW and TPT next Friday, at 8PM. 8PM in China happened to be 8AM where Lu Feng was. After Wei Xiao finished playing the game would be when Lu Fengs check-up results for the new week came out. Wei Xiao didnt say it out loud, but what he thought in his heart wasCC Ill win the game. So you have to be alright, too. xiin: *cuddles them both* Chapter 139: If its this kind of distraction, then please make sure it happens more often! Wei Xiao ultimately kept his tears from his voice and managed to sound normal the whole time. Lu Feng couldnt see him, but he could guess at what Wei Xiao looked like now. If he could, he really wanted to give him a sky under which he could act recklessly without a care for anyone else: Cry as he liked, laugh freely, and do as he liked without any scruples. Wei Xiao calmed down his mood, Im going to the training room first. Theyre all waiting for me. Lu Feng: Okay. Before hanging up, Wei Xiao couldnt help but say, Dont stay up late like this. Pay attention to your body. Lu Feng: Okay. After hanging up the phone, Wei Xiaos body lost all energy. He leaned against the wooden door and slid down to sit on the floor. His forehead rested against his bent knees, and his black hair fell down limply, covering parts of his face. The setting sun shone through the clear glass and shone on the warm brown wooden floor, stretching out in a long band of light. At the end of the light was a youth who trembled slightly as he hugged his knees. When Wei Xiao went downstairs, Chen Feng took a look at him, Bai Cai: Little Ning and Yue Wenle: Brother Tang was fearless. Its night time and indoors. Why are you wearing sunglasses? Wei Xiao was very calm. Isnt it cool? He raised his chin slightly. His lips were curved up slightly above his slender chin, and the silver gray sunglasses were perched on his high nose. The slender silver frame and silver bar between the lens was covered with LVs classic pattern. The color of his sunglasses was cool, stylish, and exquisite. When coupled with his smiling face, he looked a bit like a refined rascal. Brother Tang was very appreciative. Cool! Hed long forgotten his original question. Although Chen Feng couldnt see Wei Xiaos eyes through the lens, he just had to think about what hed been like, then link it up with the phone call to come up with a guess that was 70-80 percent accurate. You cried until your eyes swelled up, didnt you, brat? He really didnt know what Close was doing. Did he really think Little Lunatic Weis heart was so big that it wouldnt collapse?! Chen Feng knocked on the table and covered for Wei Xiao. Game review. This was also tacitly acquiescing to Wei Xiao wearing sunglasses in the room. Wei Xiao didnt need to explain anymore and sat down straightforwardly like an exemplary model. Brother Cai disparaged him inwardly: You really are f*cking hardcore! Dont judge based on how they had won so easily and how HU had been crushed like dead dogs. In fact, when it came to really focusing on the replays, there were actually many problems in their game. Apart from Han Gus personality problem, HU was really fierce and aggressive this year. FTW hadnt had a training match against them and they really didnt realize that this second rate team had grown to become so overbearing. No wonder they won against RR Although Moonlits mentality had collapsed a bit, beating Moonlit until his mentality collapsed wasnt something that could be done without some level of ability. Chen Feng: Dont underestimate the opponent. HU was caught unprepared this time, but after they calm down, it would be hard to say what the results would be like. One sentence from him was enough to make the little ones whod become somewhat proud after winning the game now calm down. Indeed HU hadnt lost so miserably because they were crappy, but because of multiple interlinked factors. First of all, Han Gus mentality hadnt been in the right place, and hed been very irrational after being counterattacked by Wei Xiao. Then, theyd all been shocked by the shadow thiefs nine light arcs. The nine light arcs had been brushed out so easily that it wouldve made anyone surprised. A moment of fluster and panic that led to disorderly chaos. It was understandable. In the second round, FTW had won easily because on one hand, Wei Xiao had shown his own unparalleled compatibility with the team through the berserker thief, twisting the team together into a rope that could exert 200% of its strength. On the other hand, it was because Han Gu had been too terrible, dragging HU back the whole time. Even an undercover player for another team wouldnt have been able to play as badly as he had. Just that wave where he sold out his teammates made FTW feel too embarrassed to continue targeting him. Compared with a few provocative comments on Weibo, this big gift of sending over kills was really sincere and reliable. Little Ning thought back over the game and said, HUs mid-laner is really strong. Unfortunately, he was dragged down until he died. Chen Feng reminded him, This player WW cant enter the top ten amongst the European competition zones mid-laners. When Ning Zhehan heard this, he couldnt help sitting up straight. The European competition zone held the strongest mid-lane player, the former Team of Gods member, Xie He. And WW, who was obviously at the top of the mid-laner list in China, couldnt even get into the top ten in Europe. It was true that the foreign competition zone was a place with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. After knocking his point into Little Ning, Chen Feng went to poke at Yue Wenle. Yue Wenle bowed his head and listened, quiet and obedient, but it was unknown how much of it went in through his left ear and straight out through his right ear. After going through everything once, Chen Feng looked at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao confessed frankly, Im sorry. I was in a bad mood today and was a little distracted when playing. Everyone in the training room: Youre really capable. You got distracted and brushed out nine light arcs, then shutout the other side! If its this kind of distraction, then please make sure it happens more often! Chen Feng was too lazy to say anything about him. He just said, Adjust your mood. The games next week wont be easy. Everyones expressions changed, their faces growing solemn. It wasnt because they were scared by having to face TPT next week. It was because they were paying the highest level of respect to Chens magical poster. Sure enough. Chen Fengs hand loosened, and a poster was then pressed up onto the glass board with magnets. Even Brother Tang, whod seen big storms and waves before, had an expression like an old grandfather looking at a cell phone and trying to figure it outCCthis poster could only be described as spicy! Little Ning suddenly realized something. He leaned close to Wei Xiao and spoke quietly, Brother Xiao really has deep foresight. Wei Xiao: ? Ning Zhehan: How great would it be if I had a pair of sunglasses right now. Then his eyes wouldnt be slaughtered by this poster. The training room was only so big. How could Chen Feng not hear him? His gaze swept over coldly, and Ning Zhehan sat up straight, staring at the poster with as much eagerness as he could muster. Queen Chen was satisfied. He pointed lightly at the poster, Do you see this? This is TPT, a big meat mountain great demon king! Everyone: Alright, then. We can sense that you drew out a meat mountain great demon king. Wei Xiao frowned briefly, Arent great demon kings all very handsome? The room full of people grew even more silent Well, FTWs great demon king was really handsome. As for other peoples Could we stop digressing from the topic and show TPT a little respect! TPT. Nickname: scrunched up crying face. The source of this nickname was very obvious. Just look at the team names abbreviation; it was like a text emoticon of a face crying with a scrunched up face. As a veteran team of the China competition zone, TPT had no fewer anti-fans than FTW did. Compared with the name that their anti-fans called them, FTWs hater name WTF (What the f*ck) sounded both fashionable and cool. TPT had also seen better days. Their heyday had come earlier than FTWs. Before the Team of Gods emerged, TPT had been the absolute father of the competition zone. Although theyd only won the global championships once, it was still a powerful giant of a team. Later on, the Team of Gods disbanded, and TPTs old players retired one after another. Chinas Glory circle dropped straight to the bottom. When FTW rose up again, TPT had also gained a new lease on life. First, there was the talented student Fu Li who dropped out of school to join the team. Then, there was Eurostar who switched from the top lane to the bottom lane and discovered a whole new world. TPT had performed brilliantly last year. Although theyd lost to RR in the semi-finals and lost the chance to enter the globals, theyd played very wonderfully in that game and completely emptied out RR. Many people said that FTW and 3U had just laid there and waited to win last year. One of them had done nothing and won the championship, and the other had done nothing and obtained the last ticket to the global competition. Why would they say that? Because in the semi-finals, TPT and RR had played too crazily. Theyd tried their absolute best, pulling out every card they had hidden and used up a full season of energy. Finally, TPT had made a small mistake and lost the game. But RR had also exhausted themselves thoroughly. They only felt tired and sleepy when facing the upcoming finals, and there was no hint of the ferocity with which they played in the semi-finals. TPT had been almost in the same situation. When they competed against 3U for the last spot for the global competition, theyd regretfully lost the game. In terms of results, TPT whod only ranked in the top four last year, seemed weaker. Yet, everyone who watched that game knew how terrifying this team was. Not only were the players strong, they also had deep routines. When playing against other teams, the other side would at most only dig out a single pit. And even if you fell in, it would still be possible to climb back out. It was different with TPT. Their captain, Fu Li, was canyon pit digger. He could dig out ten pits every time he dug, and if you could climb out of all of them, then Big Brother Li would change his surname to yours. Chen Feng strung up the little ones in the team and reminded them, TPT has a natural advantage against teams like ours. Ning Zhehan was a curious little baby. What do you mean? Chen Feng: Whats our FTWs play style? Little Ning blinked. Brother Cai gave the answer, Reckless Chen Feng: Yes. TPT is an authoritarian team with all kinds of hard heads. Hard heads? Hard headed? The type that could kill people when they hit them? That was fine. TPT was like a net that could easily send you into the pit. Wei Xiao was wearing sunglasses, and his expression was unclear, but the corners of his mouth were taut. His attitude was a little cold and serious. Chen Feng continued, Do you see RRs points? If we win against TPT, theres a good chance we can maintain our position in first place until the end. But if we lose, itll be hard to say. Group A was a world that belonged to FTW and RR. The two teams were very close in points, and it was very likely that the battle at the very end would be based on net scores. The so-called net score was the scores from each small game. Winning a BO3 game got them one major point. When it came to position rankings, the teams were first ranked according to these major points, followed by the net points. The net score was determined by whether or not there was a point deduction in a BO3 game. A 2:0 win was two net points. If the game was won with a 2:1 score, then it would be one net point. If the major points were equal, then every net point became very important! FTW had three tough games coming up in the competition. The first game was against TPT, who was in a different group cycle. The remaining two games were both against RR, who was within their group cycle. If they won against TPT, FTW would be able to remain in first place even if they lost one of the games against RR. However, if they lost to TPT, then they would have to win both games against RR in order to keep their first place in the group. So, the game next week was very important. If they wanted to win first place in the group, then they couldnt take it lightly at all! Wei Xiao looked at the group rankings, then said slowly, We have to win next week. Not just for the sake of getting number one in the group, but also because It was a very special day. The same day, the same time period. As long as he won the game, the captain would surely win against fate! Chen Feng could hear that Wei Xiaos voice held a firmness that was different from the past. This Little Lunatic wanted to win. It wasnt just for the sake of number one in the group; it was also for something else. Mm. Chen Feng said, Wanting to win is the right attitude. Little Nings blood heated and rushed up to his brain. Theres still one week to go! Lets train hard! Bai Cai was more realistic. There are competitions both tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Wei Xiao: Every game is training. Chen Feng became even more worried: TPT wasnt an ordinary team. The more they exposed themselves in front of them, the more tragic their loss might be. However, FTW wasnt the type of team to conceal themselves. FTWs code of conduct was to go all out in every game! They played a few training matches in the evening, and it was almost 12 oclock by the time they dispersed. Wei Xiao took out his cell phone. He thought about it, but ultimately didnt send Lu Feng a message. His cell phone beeped. Wei Xiaos heart clenched. Hed just accepted the voice call when Bai Cais voice rang out from beside him, Did it have to be like that? Wei Xiao slipped his cell phone into his pocket guiltily. He didnt have enough time to hang up the call. Brother Cai was clueless, but his guts were as big as the skies, Dont cry, hey. The captain might not like you, but big brother cares for you. Wei Xiao: The author has something to say: 108 ways to eat White Cabbage, give it a try. xiin: i cant wait until Bai Cai realizes the truth poor boiled veggie. Chapter 140: Wei Xiao: The captain and I are together. Wei Xiao didnt have that many friends, and he didnt want to lose this vegetable stalk, so he tried his best to save Bai Cais life. Screw your caring for me. Although Im gay, I only have the captain in my heart and wont love anyone else! He was still wearing his sunglasses, and when he said those words, it was really like that expression packCCwith sunglasses, there is no love. Oh, except for Close. Bai Cai still didnt realize that he was wandering on the edge of life and death, continuing his death-seeking behavior. Come on, your eyes are already swollen. Arent you tired from wearing sunglasses all night? Wei Xiao: He hadnt hung up the phone, and this vegetable stalk had sold him out completely now. Even he hadnt dared to cry to the captain when hed called! Bai Cai was really distressed for him, so much so that his heart was creaking. Although it was mostly abuse from thoughts his own brain had come up with, Brother Cai was also considering things seriously for the sake of his brother. Besides Lu Feng, Bai Cai had the clearest view about Wei Xiaos situation. It was a miracle to have a Little Xiao like this despite having such parents. But no matter how sunny and healthy Wei Xiao appeared, he was extremely short on love. He longed for love and also wanted to love; he was eager to have a sense of security, and would try his best to protect everything around him. Bai Cai wasnt that surprised when hed learned that Wei Xiao had fallen for Lu Feng. The captain had given him too much. Hed led him out of the grief left by his grandmothers death, given him a stage where he could prove himself, and given him a home called FTW. The captain favored him, took care of him, appreciated him Wei Xiao trusted him, was attached to him, admired him It was easy for such feelings to escalate. Bai Cai had initially felt that the captain also liked Wei Xiao. Hed always had speculations regarding Lu Fengs sexual orientation, and hed indeed sensed the concern Lu Feng had for Wei Xiao. But unexpectedly, the captains concern and care was really just the preference shown to an excellent player of a younger generation. On the other hand, the clueless Wei Xiao had figured things out first, and after figuring it out, hed been unable to keep himself from confessing, only to get rejected. That was abusive. Too damned abusive. Even the Brother Cai whod read many such small articles felt that he should abandon his account. There was no such thing as a true love CP! It was all fake! No matter how happily they shipped a CP in their dreams, it couldnt hold up under a single knife from reality. Bai Cai thought about it back and forth, and felt that he couldnt just sit back and ignore the situation. He had to pull Wei Xiao back up again. Brother Cai spoke with great pride, No matter how frustrated we are in love, were still proud on the battlefield! Real men dont need love! Wei Xiao still hadnt recovered from the previous hit. Brother Cai continued to send himself up to the chopping block, There are so many good men in the world. Why love the captain alone? Big brother will help you find a better one when we go to the global competition! If Wei Xiao still didnt speak, hed be able to eat the famous banquet dish, boiled white cabbage, for breakfast tomorrow! Thats not it! Wei Xiao quickly interrupted his crazy ideas, Its not what you think. Brother Cais expression was filled with heartache. Mm, I know your will is strong. To hell with your daddys strong will, oh sorry, he shouldnt curse Uncle Bai, to hell with your big uncles strong will (neither he or Brother Cai had uncles). Wei Xiao pulled him into his dorm room and closed the door behind him. Brother Cai was very calm. Hed already prepared his shoulders and was waiting for Little Lunatic Wei to cry on it. Wei Xiao was really out of ideas. If he didnt come clean, then this fellow might get himself killed, and FTW would lose a support player. What kind of triple championship cups would they take then! Cough When it was time to actually speak, Wei Xiao felt a little embarrassed. Coming clean to Brother Cai wasnt that hard, but the captains phone was still on. The captain could hear everything he was saying. Could he hear it? Wasnt it better if he could? Wei Xiao stopped hesitating. I already got together with the captain. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiaos eyes lowered slightly, his fingers unconsciously touching his pocket, where his cell phone was. He wasnt sure if the captain had hung up the call or not yet. Wei Xiao continued, The captain likes me too. His heart felt hot after he said that, as though these words held infinite power that squeezed into his chest. Brother Cai: Three seconds later, he exploded, What did you say?! There was nothing that could sufficiently describe Bai Cais mood at the moment. It was as though hed been eating in a suspended restaurant in the air one second ago, but the glass under his feet had shattered one second later. This fall from such a high altitude practically made his heart stop! What the hell! What was going on?! Had Little Lunatic Wei started going crazy because he was too sad? Wei Xiao apologized, then said, In fact weve been together for a long time. Brother Cai: The colors on his little face were just like Coach Chens drawings. Are you f*cking kidding me! I didnt dare to say it last time because I was afraid that your mentality would collapse. I f*cking Stay steady, it should be kept quiet. The air seemed to freeze for a few seconds. Bai Cai still had trouble accepting it, You guys when did you get together? It was impossible! How could they get together without him knowing? Was his title as the Gossip Emperor completely superficial? Were the countless words in his little articles all for nothing? He Wei Xiao cleared his throat, After the game against Pro. Bai Cai: Damn it, not only was it for nothing. He simply felt that he was a stupid fool! So it turned out that theyd been together for so long, yet hed even thought that Wei Xiao was lovelorn? Wei Xiao thought back to what had happened back then and felt a little sweetness in his heart. His voice was soft, At the time, I wanted to win against Pro and obtain the winter training camp championship so that I could confess to the captain. Bai Cai: You really have a damned sense of ceremony. Then, we lost the game. Brother Cai had a bad premonition. Wei Xiaos lips formed a smile, and it was unclear who he was saying these words to, The captain kissed me. Bai Cai: The smile on the corner of Wei Xiaos lips couldnt be suppressed as he continued, I asked the captain why he was kissing me, and he said it was because he liked me. Bai Cai wanted to run, but he couldnt move his legs. Wei Xiao went on, I asked him if it was the like between a younger generation and his senior, then asked him if it was the type of like between family members. The captain said He looked at Bai Cai and spoke each word clearly, The kind of like where I want to be your boyfriend. Brother Cai: .. Wei Xiao continued energetically, After that Bai Cai couldnt listen on any longer, Stop! Wei Xiao looked at him. Bai Cais scalp was numb. Theres no need to tell me in such detail. I get it! Wei Xiao wasnt finished, This isnt detailed. Ive just started. Bai Cai: F*ck your daddys just started! Bai Cais brain was buzzing. After sorting things out in his mind for a long time, he asked, So, youre not lovelorn. Wei Xiao: Of course. Bai Cai was going crazy. Then why did you look like the heavens were splitting apart when you played against HU! Wei Xiao: He didnt want the captain to hear about this. Bai Cai couldnt figure it out, Tell me, did you look normal then? Could it be that you miss the captain because hes been gone for too long? Missed him so much he went into seclusion? Missed him until the skies collapsed? Until he had to take his anger out on HU? Wei Xiao couldnt answer. This was one of the reasons he didnt want to come clean to Bai Cai. He could talk about anything but the captains shoulder. Nobody at FTW could accept such news. Wei Xiao breathed lightly. Yes. Its because I miss him. Is that not allowed? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao continued darkly, You dont get it. Long distance love is very difficult. I miss him every day, and it starts to pile up. At first, I could still suppress it, but after getting stimulated by HU, I couldnt hold it in any longer. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao continued complaining, Just think about how my life has been over the past month! I get up in the morning without a morning kiss, cant hold hands during lunch, theres no kiss as a reward for winning the training matches, and before sleeping Bai Cais ears were going to go deaf. He interrupted him, You Could you be a little less shameless! Wei Xiao spread his hands, Sigh, youve been single since you were born. You dont understand. Bai Cais eyes were also going to go blind., I was an IDIOT in capital letters for being worried about you! Brother Cai left, his mouth stuffed with dog food and anger. There wasnt a messy situation, he wasnt lovelorn, and there was no abusive situation either. It was just bucket after bucket of fiery hot dog food; what was up with that! After returning to his own room, Bai Cai realized something else after the fact, Holy shit LU Was that little sister who was number one on the Quiet support rankings really the great demon king? Brother Cai was paralyzed. All the dog food hed been fed that night wasnt eaten unjustly. After all, if he changed his name to Soybean, then hed only be able to eat dog food. As soon as Bai Cai left, Wei Xiao immediately took out his cell phone. The call duration: 16 minutes. The captain hadnt hung up. Hed heard everything hed said to Bai Cai. Wei Xiao stared fixedly at his cell phone. His mouth, which had dared to say anything just now, fell silent again. Lu Fengs low voice came out of the speaker, Is Bai Cai gone? Wei Xiao abruptly came back to his senses. Yes. The two of them paused for a while. The call time on the screen gradually increased, and each second seemed to sync up to his heartbeat. Lu Feng: The day we lost to Pro was the happiest moment in my life. Wei Xiaos fingers clenched tight around his cell phone. Lu Feng seemed to be speaking from right next to his ear, Thank you. Thank you for coming to my side, thank you for liking me, thank you for being willing to stand with me and support FTW. xiin: Bai Cai, the exploded vegetable. Chapter 141: Please let the captain get better. The words Wei Xiao had spoken to Bai Cai had stirred up Lu Fengs memories. In the last game during the winter training camp, FTW had lost to Pro, but Lu Feng and Wei Xiao had passed the sweetest night together. The results of the competition was expected, but the joy of two hearts coming together overwhelmed everything else. Wei Xiao remembered what Lu Feng had said back then. How could Lu Feng not remember as well? Hed said it word for word to Bai Cai, but in fact, it had all fallen onto Lu Fengs heart. Wei Xiao was comforting him. After a whole day of competing and training, after crying until his eyes were red and swollen, he was still trying to comfort him. Lu Feng could feel it. This sweetness was too soft, making it so that people could only cup it carefully in their hands out of fear of hurting him. Lu Feng asked him, Can you turn on the video? He wanted to see him. Wei Xiao paused for a moment. Lu Feng asked again, Can we? How could Wei Xiao stand it when this voice drilled into his ear? Okay. He took off his sunglasses and switched to video mode. The screen was empty for a while, and then Lu Feng appeared on it. It only took a glance for the thoughts in Wei Xiaos heart to surge up like rolling waves, the pressure making him unable to breathe. He couldnt cry, couldnt be weak and fragile, and definitely couldnt rely on the captain again! Lu Feng looked at him without blinking, his voice hoarse, Little Xiao. Wei Xiaos eyebrows pulled tight. His tears quivered in the reddened rims of his eyes. Captain Lu Feng coaxed him, Its okay, its okay if you cry. Looking at the big boy on the screen who suppressed his emotions and didnt dare to vent them wantonly, Lu Feng really wished he could fly back to see him right now. He wanted to hold him, wanted to kiss him, wanted to tell him that it was alright, that everything was okay. But he couldnt go back. How could he go back to see him with these check-up results? How could he say that everything was okay after he saw him? Wei Xiao was trying to stay strong, working hard to keep his mood calm. Captain, did you finish todays physiotherapy? Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao used to ask questions like, How do you feel afterwards?, Is there any relief from the pain?, Did the doctor praise you?, and so on every day, but now, he didnt dare to ask a thing. He only dared to change the topic, You didnt sleep at all last night. Hurry back to the hotel to sleep. Lu Feng paused, You Wei Xiao avoided his gaze. Im going to sleep, too. Lu Feng wanted to speak, but hesitated. Im going to take a bath. Im hanging up now, Wei Xiao said. Lu Feng could only bid him goodnight. Wei Xiao barely managed a smile. Good night. After hanging up the phone, Wei Xiao fell backwards into the bedding, his entire body loose and powerless. The ceiling lamp in the bedroom gave off a very soft light that protected the eyes. It was bright enough, but not dazzling, and wouldnt dazzle the eye even if he looked at it directly. But Wei Xiao couldnt stand this light and raised up his left arm to cover his eyes. The furnishing for the FTW players rooms were basically the same. The blue wallpaper was a simple style that suited boys, and there was a double bed that looked very comfortable. Above the head of the bed was FTWs team emblem; black and white double swords crossed together with the name of the team written in the middle. It was already past one oclock in the morning, and it was a quiet night outside. In the room, there was only a thin youth who lay there powerlessly on the white mattress, under the soft light. The soft and thick bedding outlined his thin waist, and the wide cuffs of his sleeves fell down to his elbow, revealing a slender arm that was a little bit paler than the light. His arm covered his eyes, and a tear ran down his cheek to drip down onto the pillow. A short while later, he turned over. His back arched, his knees curled up, and his white ears poked out from between the scattered strands of his black hair. His left hand clutched at the bedding as he cried silently. CCGet better. CCPlease let the captain get better. He wanted to see him win a real singles championship, he wanted to play doubles with him, and he wanted to stand with him on the glorious stage without any regrets. Wei Xiao woke up from a nightmare. When he woke up, his back was covered in cold sweat. His fingers trembled as he groped for his cell phone. Just when he was about to press the call button, he abruptly woke up completely. What was he doing? What was he trying to do again? Wei Xiao tossed away his cell phone and calmed down his breathing. Stop pestering the captain like a child. He should let him recuperate properly, let him rest assured, and not give him any more pressure. Wei Xiao patted his cheeks and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Bai Cai had been so frightened last night that he hadnt been able to sleep all night. As soon as the alarm clock rang, he pulled himself out of bed and went to do his daily task of walking the husky. When he thought of his part time job, Brother Cai inexplicably felt a little full. At the time, Brother Cai hadnt thought too much of it when the captain asked him to walk Soybean every day. He just thought that the captain was very rich and wanted to subsidize a good wife like him. Now Forget it! Like hell was he subsidizing a good wife, he was clearly spoiling his son! Um As Little Lunatic Weis son, wasnt Brother Soy also Closes son? He was clearly a babysitter and a nanny, yet hed thought of himself as the main character. Brother Cai was ashamed of his own misconceptions! Bai Cai was still in a daze when he went to pick up Soybean and was surprised to find that the husky wasnt there. Eh? It was so early. Other than him, a man who got up early for money, who else would take Brother Soy out for a walk? Bai Cai went to the window and looked out at the garden of the base. And then Holy shit, were his eyes acting up? The figure that was running amidst the purple plum trees and facing the cold spring wind was Wei Xiao? Bai Cai flopped downstairs in his slippers and squatted on the steps. Soon after, Wei Xiao, who was wearing black sportswear and accompanied by the barking of a dog, came running over. Brother Cai was so cold he was rubbing his hands together. Whats up with you? Wei Xiao glanced at him and panted, Morning run. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao was tall. He was wearing slim running pants and silver running shoes, making his legs look long and straight. Adding on his handsome face, it was enough to shoot s with! Bai Cai watched as he ran off again and chased after him. Whats the situation? Why arent you sleeping in so early in the morning and going for a run instead? Wei Xiao had a single earbud in his ear, and the white headphone cable stretched down to his pocket, sliding across his waistline, Exercising. Bai Cai was going crazy. You Little Homebody Wei, exercising? Wei Xiao rolled his eyes at him. The body is the capital for revolution. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao looked straight ahead. FTW needs more championship cups. Having said that, he sped up and got rid of the slow snail Bai Cai. Brother Cai stood there in a daze in the cold wind for a while. F*ck. Was the power of love so great?! It even made a homebody cancer patient go for a morning run? It made Bai Cai want to fall in love too, damnit. But when he thought about it more, girls who liked morning runs were too scarce; he might as well forget it. That week, FTW was plunged into the abyss of deep misery as they prepared for their competition against TPT. Did this abyss come from Chen Feng? Was the deep misery from the coaching team? No! It all came from their jungler king teammate Wei Xiao! Little Ning was the one in the abyss. Brother Xiao, I cant anymore, I really cant. The cold and cool jungler king was online and fierce, Dont even think about eating if you cant freeze me tonight. Little Ning: He wailed out loud. As a small eunuch, Brother Cai tried to make a careful suggestion, Youve already soloed with him for four hours, and hes already died in all sorts of ways 30 to 40 times. How about The jungler king glanced at him. Brother Cai shivered and switched to scolding Little Ning, The grandmaster is online and teaching. This is something others cant get even if they beg for it. How can you say that you cant do it! Little Ning: Brother Cai, werent you going to save me?! The one in deep misery was Yue Wenle. Unlike Little Ning, whod never experienced the grandmasters baptism by fire, Comrade Old Yue was filled with fighting spirit. The more he died, the braver he became, and he was passionate and lost his head every day. He wished he could solo from dawn until dusk. Wei Xiao taught students in accordance to their aptitude and used a different way to train up Yue Wenle. Whats your score in the peak ladder rankings? Yue Wenle: The peak rankings was a mode in Glorys high-level games. Only players whod reached a certain ranking in ranked games could participate in it. Players who entered the peak ladder rankings could only solo queue, and their rankings were based on their cumulative winning KDA. This was a gold training model with a very high gold content, because as an ADC who relied on his teammates, it was very difficult to climb up in the rankings. This was particularly the case for players like Yue Wenle whod been protected too well by Brother Cai. Once he entered the peak ranking games where wolves and tigers appeared frequently, Yue Wenle was likely to get sold off by his own support like a useless wooden stick. The conditions Wei Xiao gave him were, For every 100 points you gain in the rankings, well solo once. What kind of concept was 100 points? Based on Yue Wenles miserable little body, he had to fight with a group of animals for several hours while obtaining a KDA of 10.0 in each game before reaching this number. It was hard, it was as hard as trying to scale the blue sky. But it had to be said that this method was extremely effective for Yue Wenle. The best way to train up a reckless person was to toss him into a purgatory of deep misery where he would die as soon as he played recklessly. In fact, the coaching team had long arranged this kind of training for Yue Wenle. But when it came to training plans, they were easy to come up with it, but too difficult to actually implement. Without anything to stimulate him, Yue Wenle would get annoyed after playing a single game. Hed basically deal with the task with his eyes closed, so the results were always very bad. Now that Wei Xiao had made his move, Yue Wenles peak ranking points had soared all the way to a new high. This week, Wei Xiao was fully involved in team training. He played in the training matches more seriously than everyone else, and he was more attentive than everyone else when it came to going over the replays. When he soloed with Ning Zhehan, on one hand, it was to hone the boys skill release accuracyCCif even the agile and flexible grandmaster could be frozen, then who couldnt Little Ning freeze? On the other hand, it was also so that they could get more familiar with each other. Double queuing was really a good way to cultivate tacit understanding, but soloing could also do the same, and the efficiency was even higherCCof course, this was an ability that was exclusive to the grandmaster, and others wouldnt be able to learn it. Yue Wenles training was more targeted. It would aim to have the boy learn to become more cautious through the peak ranking competitions, and to resist being blindly reckless just because he had the protection of his teammates. In addition, his desire for survival would be tempered through the promise of solo matches. Then, it was back to the same thing C if he could survive safely under the assault of Wei Xiaos thief, then across the whole of Glory, there wouldnt be many who could easily cut Yue Wenle down. Brother Tang was relatively stable, so Wei Xiao spent more time playing double queue with him. Brother Cai felt snubbed. What about me, what about me? Wei Xiao looked at him. Brother Cai stood up immediately. Ill go squeeze some watermelon juice for Brother Wei! He ran off to the kitchen so quickly he left a trail of smoke, like a virtuous little vegetable. It was an extremely busy and full week. Wei Xiao used this intensive training to keep his thoughts at bay. He had regular contact with Lu Feng at a fixed time every day. But it was different from the coquettish attitude of the previous month. There was more discussion about the game, about TPT, and the advantages and disadvantages of their teammates. The call durations werent short; in fact, their calls were even longer than before, but the feeling of missing each other was stronger than it had been in the past. In the blink of an eye, a new week had begun. Their game with TPT would take place tomorrow. Chen Feng spoke up, Enough, dont queue until too late. Rest early. The group of cubs all answered quickly, but no one got up. Instead, it was Wei Xiao, who usually left the latest every night, who got up first. See you guys tomorrow. Everyone was stunned, but Brother Cai understood: Alright then, he must be going to stew phone porridge again. Wei Xiao went out, bowing his head to send Lu Feng a WeChat message, Captain, wait for my good news tomorrow. Lu Feng replied very quickly, Okay. He also hoped that he could bring him good news. Chapter 142: The faith in his heart would never be extinguished. The game between FTW and TPT was the finale for the day. There were three games a day, and the third game would only begin after the first two were finished. According to their past experience, the possibility of a late game was very likely, so they would have to wait even if they arrived early. By the time they finished their make-up and the pre-game interview, the current game was only in their second match of the set. What was interesting was that the team playing outside was a team they were familiar withCCGOQ. It was that team that had been beaten into tears by Wei Xiao, then forced to review the game afterwards. Wei Xiao took a look. Theyve made significant progress. Chen Feng was also watching the situation. Were halfway through the regular season. Many teams have started to come together. The live projection showed the two teams that were playing an extremely tense game. GOQ had already won a small match. In this match, they started off very aggressively, and the storm hunter that had been caught by Wei Xiao and forced to review the replay was playing very well. Several times, he stepped on raindrops in just the right way, making it so that his opponent either couldnt deal damage, or had no way to escape. Seeing that Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had also leaned over to watch, Chen Feng said, Enough. Well probably be going up on stage soon. Go and warm up. As an old expert, he could see that the game wouldnt last long. GOQ was in full swing, and the other side had already been beaten into a mess. They wouldnt be able to hold on for long. The regular season had already been going for over a month, and the team rankings had gradually stabilized. FTW was first place in Group A, and RR was in second place. In Group B, 3U was in first place, and TPT was in second place. The other teams had also honed their fighting spirit and started the big battle to snatch up points in the second half of the season. In the regular season, each team had to play a full 19 games. This type of real combat was worth 100 private training matches. By now, every team had played at least ten games. The period of acclimatisation they needed was now done, and the adapting they had to do had already happened. The last nine games were the final key to the playoffs. Whether or not they could reach the top four in their groups would depend on how they played in the second half of the season. FTWs record was very beautiful. Other than losing to 3U, theyd won every other game. Reasonably speaking, this notable achievement should mean that they would be first in their group with no suspense. But RR was chasing after them relentlessly, biting at FTWs butt and only falling behind by one point. In tonights game of FTW vs TPT, if they lost, then RR could surpass FTW with their net points advantage and become number one in the group. Although it was only a temporary first place, if FTW could win against TPT tonight, then their ability to defend their position as number one until the very end would be as high as 70%! So, this game was very important. For FTW, this game was extremely important! Wei Xiao naturally wouldnt talk about the concerns he had hidden in his heart, but he told his teammates, We lost to 3U, so we cant lose to TPT this time. There was weight in his words. In the current domestic competition zone, the strongest four teams had already come out into the open. FTW, RR, 3U, TPT. The achievements of these four teams were also very dazzling. They bit closely at each others heels, and at the same time, they left the third place in both groups far behind in the dust. The meaning behind Wei Xiaos sentence actually referred to the battle between Group A and Group B. Although the first and second place of both groups could enter the winning group, Group A definitely didnt want to see a result where Group B was strong and Group A was weak. FTW had lost to 3U. RR lost to TPT. If FTW then lost to TPT, then it was almost equivalent to saying that Group B was strong, and Group A was weak. Although there was no competitive relationship between Group A and Group B, who would be willing to be compared like that? Out of the teams who stood there on the field, who was willing to be worse than anyone else?! Whats more, they would still meet each other in the playoffs. If they lost now, then lost again, how would they have the confidence to win the championship during the playoffs?! Chen Feng nodded. Play well and win this game. He could save a lot of inspirational energy with Wei Xiao there. This guy was able to inject the whole team with chicken blood with just a few words. Wei Xiao looked at Chen Feng. Coach, itll be hard on you. Chen Feng: ! He was taken by surprise by Wei Xiaos gaze. Chen Feng was so startled that his heart leapt. No wonder Little Ning was apprehensive of him, no wonder an old pro like Yue Wenle listened to him. When this brat turned serious, he really had an impressive presence. Chen Feng understood what he meant, Dont worry. I know what to do. At 8:40PM, FTW and TPT walked out from behind the scenes to the front of the stage and sat down in their respective areas. They checked their peripherals, adjusted the machines to their liking, then made a final check with the referee. A fierce battle was imminent. It was impossible to bring in his cell phone when playing in a competition. Wei Xiao stared at the time on the screen even as his heart flew over to the other side of the earth. At the start of the first match between FTW and TPT, Lu Feng had also started his check-up for the fifth week of his physiotherapy. More than half of the two month long treatment had already taken place. If there was no turn for the better, was it necessary for him to waste time with the remaining three weeks? When he thought of Wei Xiao, who was carrying so much pressure during the regular season, Lu Fengs chest was filled with a deep pain. If Lu Feng closed his eyes. He made a decision in his heart. Wei Xiao didnt know anything, and he didnt try to think about anything. He only focused on the match in front of him, putting all the emotions that had been suppressed over the past week into the field. Hed win the game and take first place in the group. As long as he went forward bravely, the captain would get better. CCThe faith in his heart would never be extinguished, and his belief would never fall. This was the insistence that supported Wei Xiao! The BP segment would never be quick for any game against TPT. TPT was undoubtedly a strong team. This team that had the strongest brain Fu Li also had an added layer of mystery. No matter which team it was, they would grow bald when they met TPT. It wasnt just the five starters in the canyon who went bald. The coach who was responsible for the BP would grow even more bald. Other teams only had one coach during the BP segment, but TPT had two! And this other coach could still follow them into the canyon and kill people until they had no armor left. It was too much of a bug. The director understood the audiences tastes very well and first gave them a close-up of Wei Xiao. Theyd arrived early for the days game and thered been enough time, so when the make-up artist saw that Wei Xiaos attitude didnt seem as cold as before, shed given him a new hairstyle. Wei Xiaos short hair was black and glossy, but the tips of his hair liked to curl, giving it a bit of a childish look. The make-up artist today was the same one whod worked on him when they played against HU, and this little sister whod been frozen by a refrigerator last time was now eager and ready for action, giving Wei Xiao an extremely alpha hairstyle. Shed pushed up the hair over his forehead, pressed down the slightly curled tips of his hair, then set the style with hair gel. Just a glance at his side profile was enough to freeze others into ice! The little make-up artist sister was delighted, Cool! Aiya, who wouldve thought that shed get such a feel for doing make-up for e-sports players? With this hair style, when the camera gave a close-up, all the little sisters in the scrolling comments immediately turned into shrieking chickens in an instantCC God Q is so alpha-like! I love this hairstyle! What kind of big treasure is Quiet? He can be salty, sweet, cool, and warm, fellow sisters, there will be no regrets if you jump into this pit! I dont know if its just my illusion, but ever since Close left the team, Quiet has grown more handsome day by day. FTWs jungler position has good feng shui. It makes people increasingly handsome. Ahhhh, if the great demon king doesnt come back soon, Im going to change my marriage target!!! The director cut the lens to TPT. Eurostar was a well-known drama maker. How much of a drama maker? If the camera switched to him, hed first give it a wink, and then start mouthing the words: I love Fans: Ahhhhhh, Euro God, I love you too! Todays Star-star is still a sweet hearted little darling! Ah, Im dead, Ive been electrocuted to death by this wink! The camera panned to the left, showing TPTs captain Fu Li, a cold-blooded study god. He was one of the few who wore glasses in the professional circle. The long and slender golden framed glasses had extremely fine and detailed carvings on the side. The classic cross markings were particularly conspicuous under the dazzling stage lights. Fu Lis gaze skimmed over the camera, gaining a lot of screams on the scrolling comments in response. When it comes to refined rascals, I only respect Captain Fu! Im getting down on my knees for this quaking S aura! Daily sense of confusion. Am I chasing e-sports or idols? How come they all look so good?! Fellow sisters, how about the Li-Star CP? The audience couldnt hear the team chat and could only stare at the players faces and scream. The professional game fans were concerned, and had been trying to analyze the situation according to the BP. Chen Feng: They banned the shadow thief. Wei Xiao: Its okay. That was to be expected. FTW had played four games in the recent week, and as long as someone dared to let the shadow thief out, Wei Xiao would use nine light arcs to teach them how to behave. How could TPT let the shadow thief out to play? Chen Feng was pondering over what line-up to use. This was the meaning behind the sentence that Wei Xiao had said to him before the game. When they played against TPT, it was too tiring for the coach. He had to think about too many things. You ban one, I ban one, you choose one, I choose one. This seemingly relaxed BP actually contained countless mysteries. It was no exaggeration to say that a good BP segment was just as effective as a chess game when it came to burning the brain. They had to consider the other sides routines, fight for a good line-up for themselves, and also guard against a counterattack from the other side. After this back and forth, the decision on which hero to ban and take during the BP segment would only be made at the last second almost every time. What hero Wei Xiao used was very important for FTW. As the core of the team, the talent he chose would directly determine the final line-up of the team. If he took talents with explosive damage like the shadow thief and hidden thief, then the team would have to consider how to make up for any shortfalls in a balanced group battle; if he used talents that tended towards group fights like the berserker thief or immortal thief, then his teammates would need to make up for his low damage in the early stages and overall control. Wei Xiaos hero pool was very wide, and there were many talents to choose from, but TPTs team chat. Eurostar spoke thoughtlessly as usual, Quiet can play anything. Its no use banning the shadow thief. Hes the one who trained up Asleeps berserker thief, and his immortal thief and blood thief are also very good. I was abused so miserably at his hands yingyingying Fu Li stared at the screen. He can play anything, but his teammates cant cooperate with everything. Yes, that was FTWs current problem. Quiet and Close were both talent kaleidoscopes. They could use anything, and they could use everything very well, but this was a 5v5 game, and the line-ups and routines had to have their own rhythm. As long as his teammates were restricted to death, even if his hero pool was as deep as the sea, he would still be limited to taking out only the fish that remained. Chen Feng sensed it. Fu Li is forcing you to take the berserker thief. Wei Xiao didnt say anything. Chen Feng pondered, During TPTs game against 3U, Asleep was targeted very tightly. 3Us berserker thief could be said to be one of the China Glory circles signboards. Even FTW had been defeated by this cooperation back then, but TPT had gone up despite the difficulties and defeated Asleeps berserker thief, landing a heavy blow on 3U. Now, they wanted to use the same routine on FTW. Force Wei Xiao to take the berserker thief, then use the same restraint technique against FTW? This would be looking down on TPT too much. As a famous pit excavator in Glory, the pits that came from Captain Fus shovel came one after another, and there were no duplicates. It all depended on which pit you wanted to jump into. Chen Feng frowned. Take the berserker thief? Wei Xiao: Take it. He was very curious about the big gift pack that Fu Li had prepared for him. The author has something to say: Love you all xiin: happy chinese new year~ Chapter 143: Youre FTWs Quiet, our miracle soldier. The BP segment was over. The line-up that both sides had snatched up for themselves didnt seem very problematic from a passers-by perspective. FTW was very good with the berserker thief. Wei Xiaos crazy berserker thief had reached a miraculous level, enough to terrify countless teams. In the last game, the team that was up against FTW had given their first ban spot to the shadow thief, and their second to the berserker thief. Their desire for survival was very strong. Unfortunately, it was impossible to ban all the thieves. Wei Xiao took the immortal thief, the blood thief And still beat people up until they had to call out daddy. On the surface, TPTs BP hadnt targeted Wei Xiao and only focused on the c-positions, forcing Ning Zhehan to take the ice mage and Yue Wenle to take the storm hunter. When these two heroes came out at the same time, it only sent out one signalCCthey wouldnt have enough DPS during team fights. The ice mage tended towards control and was relatively weak when it came to team fights; the storm hunter was flexible, but it had a short range, and its damage was all single-target damage, making it more suited for ambushes or cutting to the back of the group. It was also quite weak in team fights. TPT had forced FTW to pick out these two talents, making Wei Xiaos choices very limited. The thief profession had many talent specs. They could hold up the DPS flag and make up for the shortage from the c-positions, but there werent many talents that could drive team fights. If he could use nine light arcs, then the shadow thief was one of those talents, but it had been banned. Now, the only remaining talent that was powerful enough to do so was the berserker thief. Should Wei Xiao take it or not? If he took it, TPT obviously had a way to deal with it. If he didnt take it, then theyd fall into TPTs trap, because the remaining talents were a little less compatible with the line-up compared with the berserker thief. TPT wouldve weakened Wei Xiao without even having to fight. There was a pit in front of them, and a pit behind them. This was the terrible thing about playing against an excavator. Forcing them into a dead end and making it so that they could only find a pit to squat in. Wei Xiao never shrank back like a turtle. Instead of taking other talent specs that his teammates werent used to, it was better to charge straight ahead. You have your plan, and I have my routines. He really wanted to give TPT a try. CCIf they didnt even dare to try and break through in the regular season, then what kind of playoffs would they be able to play?! Many people were paying attention to this game. RR wasnt the only team whod come to the scene this time; there was also Asleep and Cong Yi. Cong Yi had gone to FTW directly and asked for a seat on the substitute bench. When he got in touch, Brother Liu had been a little stunned, What? Cong Yi: Ill help you watch your water dispenser. There were water dispensers beside the substitute benches, so the substitutes also had a nicknameCCwater dispenser watchers. Xiang Liu, who was busy looking for substitutes every day, was a bit confused. About that, we arent Short on support and jungler players (conjoined babies). His little assistant quickly interjected, Are you coming to watch our game? Thats fine, how many people are coming? Xiang Liu suddenly came back to his senses: F*ck, Ive been too frightened by my boss recently, and my thoughts are confused! Cong Yi was very good at catching details and instantly found a blind spot. Is FTW looking for a substitute? Xiang Liu had been a manager for many years, and his ability to cope with emergencies wasnt praised for nothing. He smiled and said, Yes, FTW has always been short on substitutes. It was better to admit that frankly than try to cover it up. Indeed, Cong Yi didnt think more of it. Brother Tang really should be retiring. There was not the tiniest bit of doubt about the great demon kings shoulder. Xiang Liu was relieved. He quickly went to arrange seats for them. Cong Yi took Asleep to go and sit on the substitute bench. When the camera rotated over, Cong Yi smiled and waved hello, and even helped his captain, who was sleeping on his shoulder, wave his hand, too. Naturally, this made the scrolling comments explodeCC The relationship between 3U and FTW is really good! These brother teams really live up to their reputation. They can even sit on each others substitute benches. Wuwuwu, the pajamas CP is still very sweet today. My cub can still sleep so soundly in a noisy place like the arena. Brother Sleep looks very good in casual clothes, the oversized sweater makes him look more stylish. Look at those legs, if you didnt have that pair of legs, would you dare to wear such a big oversized sweater?! Chen Feng glanced at them. Here to watch us make a joke of ourselves? How could that be? Were here to learn from your experiences. Cong Yi smiled slightly, To see how FTW is going to break through. In fact, TPT and 3Us last game had resulted in 3U winning with a score of 2:1. However, the 3U whod won the game hadnt been happy at all, and had even wanted to beat up TPT until they scrunched up their faces and cried. In the second game they played, TPT had released the berserker thief, and 3U had taken it without hesitation. Yet as a result Theyd been hammered into wooden scraps by TPT. Winning a regular season game wasnt very meaningful. What was really upsetting was having ones best line-up get beaten into collapse. What was more painful was that 3U had experienced this twice in a single regular season (the last time was when their wind thief line-up had been pushed to the limit by Wei Xiao). 3U, as the first place in their group, was actually aching all over from the beatings. Today, FTW and TPT were up against each other. 3U would naturally come and watch the show. From another perspective, they could also gain more information about TPTs arrangements. Asleeps berserker thief was their signboard. They had to get even! The players had entered the canyon as they chattered. The game started quietly. The two teams each went through their own jungle zones, the top laners tested each other out, and vision was provided appropriately. There was no hint of brewing trouble. Fu Li was a mid-laner and also the main commander of the team. The best position for main commander in a team was jungler and support, followed by the mid-laner. Fu Li played very steadily in the mid-lane. What really mattered was the accuracy of his control skills and grasp over the overall situation. He was the very definition of thinking three steps ahead with every step. Wei Xiao spoke, Mid-lane gank. If they didnt mess with TPTs mid-laner in a game against them, then how could they live up to the nickname Excavator? Little Ning: Okay! Wei Xiao finished killing the wolf cub near the bottom lane and took Brother Cai with him as he snuck back to the mid-lane. There were bushes on both sides of the mid-lane. As long as they paid attention to their lines of sight, the other side wouldnt be able to see them after they snuck into the grass. Ning Zhehan and Wei Xiao had cooperated much more and now had their own routines. For example, he would pressure the other side a little when Wei Xiao was coming over, causing the opponent to have to shrink back and giving Wei Xiao a chance to hide in the grass. Then, he would pretend to go elsewhere to provide support so that the other side would come out to clear their soldier lines. When the other side left the protection of their tower, death would be waiting for them. Theyd tried and tested this routine repeatedly, and they were often able to kill off the other sides mid-laner at the start of the game with this trick. Just like countless times before, Wei Xiao hid himself in the bushes. Brother Cai: I keep feeling as though something is off. Wei Xiao didnt make a sound. He also felt that something wasnt quite right. Ning Zhehans acting skills had been practiced for a long time now. Seeing that his own team were well hidden, he pretended to head for the top lane. The ice mages little legs had just raised up to take a step Wei Xiaos pupils contracted. Dont go over there! But it was too late. Ning Zhehan was sucked in by a black chain, and his entire person was pulled over uncontrollably. Ning Zhehan yelled wildly, Help me help me help me Hed been controlled and couldnt use any skills. The distance between them was short enough that Wei Xiao and Bai Cai could follow over. Bai Cai hadnt even thought about it and had already started rushing over. He was using the holy priest in this game and had a large amount of heals. As long as he used his skills and kept up Ning Zhehans health, he would be able to escape and even fight back. There wasnt anything wrong with Brother Cais judgement. From his perspective, this decision was very correct. However, from the gods perspective, it was FTWs in big trouble. TPTs routines are too deep! Fu Lis homework was done too perfectly. He can completely guess what FTW is going to do. As soon as Brother Cai came out of the grass, Fu Li, whod been timidly hiding behind his tower, came out and gave him a charm skill. Bai Cai: Wei Xiaos heart leapt, Kill the charm mage! Fu Li was using the charm mage, a demon with a seductive appearance. His core skill was charm, and the effect of this skill was to control the target and have them go wherever he went. Fu Li was beneath his tower. He directly charmed Brother Cai into heading to the base of his own tower. The holy priest didnt have much health at the start of the game, but even if it was the giant shaman with a high amount of defense, it still wouldnt be able to withstand the repeated hits from the defense tower. Brother Cai was done for, and Ning Zhehan couldnt be saved. Wei Xiao could only take away the charm mages life and stop the losses! Bai Cai had a broader field of vision. He started, No, Old Wei, dont come Wei Xiaos scythe had already been tossed out at Fu Li. It was difficult to distinguish if the enchanting demon was male or female, but it wasnt anxious after being locked in by the black scythe and even appeared even more enchanting because of its confinement. It was a pity that the berserker thief didnt understand compassion. It used a backswing and controlled the demon tightly. Brother Cai saw that he was done for and could only toss all his skills at Wei Xiao, hoping that he could survive after killing the charm mage. The moves were extremely fierce, and the charm mage was forcibly killed from beneath its own tower. At the same time, several system announcements rang out. Bai Cai had been killed by the charm mage. Ning Zhehan had been killed by TPTs jungler. The situation was suddenly very tense! Wei Xiao was now in a frenzied state, but he was under the enemys defense tower and taking damage. Although TPTs captain had been offered up as a sacrifice, theyd killed off two of FTW players and were expecting to take away Wei Xiaos life as well. The commentator: Quiets in a dangerous situation. The two from TPT are in excellent health and can completely block his way out. Yue Wenle is pressing on the transmission button, so with the storm hunter on its way, will FTW continue to fight? There was also a lot of discussion in the scrolling comments as various analysis emperors came out to share their analysis. The audience didnt even blink as they watched. It was as though theyd substituted themselves into the canyon and could feel the blood boiling tension. Only TPTs team chat was very peaceful and healthy. Eurostar: Leles on his way over. Fu Li: Okay, push the tower. Eurostar: Kay. Although Fu Li was lying on the ground, his voice was still unhurried. The gorgeous special effects from the screen reflected off the lens of his glasses, blocking his dark eyes from view. Yue Wenle arrived at the mid-lane tower to provide support for Wei Xiao from the back. Wei Xiao stared at the two from TPT and calculated the cooldown time in his brain Old Yue, concentrate on the power thief. Yue Wenle stepped on raindrops and accurately landed his attacks on TPTs jungler. TPTs team chat. Fu Li: Keep Tang Chen in the top lane. Shaman, give all your totems to the power thief. On the screen, the storm hunters attacks landed on the power thief, but TPTs shamans totems lifted the power thiefs health back up instantly! Under the stage, Cong Yi stared at the screen and said, Fu Li must be able to read minds. Chen Feng didnt say anything. Watching TPT and 3Us game combined with the team chat was really enough to make peoples scalps go numb. There were many good team commanders, but it was rare for there to be commanders as exaggerated as Fu Li. In the fast changing battlefield, no matter how fast spoken languages prompts were, it still wasnt enough to catch up with the instinctive reactions from players themselves. Because no matter how fast one spoke, it couldnt be faster than 0.1 seconds. Verbal communication was bound to be shackled by time, and even a 0.1 second mistake on the battlefield might be enough for the game results to turn upside down. However, Fu Li was able to give instructions in advance. He didnt have to speak too fast. He just gave instructions ten seconds in advance. Hed already told the shaman and power thief how to deal with the situation even as the storm hunter clicked on the transmission skill. Even before FTW had taken action, hed already determined Wei Xiao, Bai Cai, and Ning Zhehans positions and could set up an ambush ahead of time. He wasnt only focusing on the berserker thief. Hed clearly seen through what the whole team would do. Planning very carefully with every conceivable possibility taken into account, this was what he used to dig pits all over the ground. The group fight in the mid-lane ended there. Wei Xiao only had a sliver of health left and couldnt take down the power thief with him. Yue Wenle still wanted to continue attacking, but Wei Xiao called out for him to stop. Yue Wenle was unwilling, but there was no way to chase after them. If the other sides top laner came down to provide support, FTW would suffer a continuous bloody collapse. At the start of the game, TPT had traded in Fu Lis life for Bai Cai, Ning Zhehan, and Wei Xiaos three lives, simultaneously also taking down the bottom lane first tower. Theyd made a big loss! FTWs team chat was quiet. Ning Zhehans hands and feet were cold. I didnt expect I didnt expect that my actions would be seen through so clearly. Wei Xiao stared unblinkingly at the screen. The captains words suddenly came into his earsCC Youre FTWs Quiet, our miracle soldier. His eyes lit up, and his chest filled with bursts of heat. Dont be afraid. Wei Xiao calmed them down softly, Im here. He was FTWs miracle soldier. A miracle soldier couldnt be seen through completely. A miracle soldier wouldnt be afraid of getting led into traps. A miracle soldier would surely lead the team to a different victory! While FTW and TPTs confrontation was at their most scorching moment, Lu Feng had finished the first round of check ups. The attending doctors eyes brightened when he saw the results. Lu Fengs black eyes were heavy. He already didnt seem to care much about the results. The doctor was pleasantly surprised and said, Lu, todays check up results look very good. Lu Feng was stunned for a moment. The doctor showed him the scans. Here and here, the situation is much better than before! The author has something to say: Hey, Little Xiao, fighting! Therell be a surprise after the game (a supersized one) xiin: YESSSS itll be okay~! Chapter 144: Wei Xiao: Who couldve known that I would encounter love on a street corner? There was no doubt that FTW was in for a tough fight. On the substitute bench, Asleep had woken up long ago and was staring intently at the screen. The camera would occasionally sweep over, stopping on him for a moment. The youth who was normally lazy and half awake was now leaning forward in his seat. He wasnt wearing his team uniform, and his hair had been arranged casually. His black sweater was very wide, making his shoulders and waist appear very narrow. His eyes were direct, and his hands were close together, his index fingers supporting his chin. He looked attentive and serious. There was no need to doubt it, and the fans in the scrolling comments started their shrill screams again. Its Sleep God with his eyes open! I feel that hes watching Captain Fu. Look at that gaze, that appearance. its the little wolf dog gong that I love! Sorry, my Captain Fu isnt a shou. Sorry, my Cong Yi never wears green hats. Sorry, hes clearly staring at Quiet! The players were all too good looking. The CP fans really couldnt be blamed for getting too into their ships and starting another fight over them. Of course, compared with the scrolling comments from tens of thousands of haters, this was just the tip of the iceberg and was quite wholesome in comparison. The scrolling comments were already scolding heatedly, What the hell is going on with FTW? Laozi put 50,000 betting coins on you, stand the hell up for me! Haha, I knew that FTW was done for the moment that Quiet took the berserker thief. Whats going on with FTW? Didnt they see how TPT messed with 3U? How dare they come without any countermeasures? His ego must be inflated. He probably thinks that his berserker thiefs better than Asleeps. I havent liked watching Quiet since a long time ago. Hurry up and mess up, whats a newcomer acting so crazy for. How the audience was acting didnt matter, what was important were the ten players in the field. The game had gone on for nearly thirty minutes, and TPT was ahead of FTW by 7000 farm. What did that mean? Eurostar, who had the highest farm in TPT, had one more full piece of equipment than Wei Xiao, who was the one with the highest farm in FTW. Even Wei Xiaos farm was so far behind, let alone the farm of the others. Little Ning had practiced his ice mage a lot recently. Although his mentality was a little broken, he was still good at freezing people. Other than Fu Li, hed basically managed to freeze everyone else. Oh He hadnt frozen Eurostar though. This brat was too good at surviving. Everyone in his family could die, but he, as a big treasure, had to continue living. It was unknown what hed experienced to make him so afraid of death. FTWs state became weaker in the later stages. It was already bad enough that their operations could be seen through, but there were also disadvantages in their line-up. Based on FTWs line-up that was stronger in the early stages, theyd have no way to fight once Eurostar was able to stand up fully on his own! What to do? Continuing on like this was just like sitting there waiting for death. This wasnt Wei Xiaos style, nor was it FTWs style! Wei Xiao took a light breath. Dont think about anything. Just fight. Since the other side could basically guess what they were doing no matter what, they might as well just let loose and fight. If they were going to be overcautious like this, then they might as well roll up their sleeves and go for it. Ning Zhehan still felt guilty. Um Wei Xiao: Dont worry about anything. Just judge the situation according to your intuition. Ning Zhehan was stunned. Wei Xiao: Remember that time when we played against GOQ? Ning Zhehan suddenly saw the light. I remember! Wei Xiao: Find the feeling from that time. Ning Zhehans eyes lit up. Okay! Everyone could hear his words. Yue Wenle and Tang Chen also understood him. In fact, Bai Cai was a little confused. He was used to playing with Wei Xiao and cooperating with him had already become instinctual, so he couldnt get into the same state as everyone else when they played against GOQ. Later on, Chen Feng had mentioned it during the game replay review that hed seen the shadow of Yan Jiang. At the time, Bai Cai had been puzzled, because he hadnt experienced it. No matter how Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle described it, he couldnt feel this so-called smooth and free. Beneath the stage, Chen Feng leaned back in his chair and relaxed. Cong Yi noticed it. It seems that FTW really can break through this game. Chen Feng: It will be hard to turn things around in this match, but theyre trying. As long as it was effective, FTW wouldnt be afraid of Fu Lis calculations in the next two matches! Cong Yi looked at the screen and could feel a sense of disconnect. Asleeps voice was low, Stiff. Others may feel that this statement was vague when they heard it, but Cong Yi understood. What Asleep was saying was: FTWs overall state was very rigid. Indeed In the first half of the game, they could feel the tacit understanding that FTW had honed over the first half of the regular season, but this tacit understanding had been completely lost by the end of the game. They seemed to be back in the same state theyd been in their first game of the regular season, back in that awkward breaking-in period. The audience was all swearing, Stupid FTW, their mentalities have collapsed! Are they starting to send kills to the other side? If you dont have any fighting spirit, then dont play. What the hell is this. Dont play around with Laozis betting coins! This is the God Q that you guys praise up to the skies. Lets change his name to Waste Q, it sounds better. All the kings who had loud mouths filled up the scrolling comments. With that hand speed, they should be able to rush up into the 100 star rankings in Glory! In the first game, FTW lost. In the last group fight, Wei Xiao killed the arrogant and domineering Eurostar, but Fu Li charmed him and sent him back to the fountain. In fact, the group fight had started off well. FTWs farm was only behind by 1000, and there was a chance for them to turn the tables and win the match. Unfortunately, their losses at the start had been too large, and they were still trying to find a feel for the pace of the game in the later stage. By the time theyd achieved some results, TPT had already won the game. The good thing was This was a BO3 game. There was no need to panic after losing a match, they still had a chance! Chen Feng came over, pulling down his headphones and attempting to cheer them up, Not bad, you guys found a feel for it. Ning Zhehan spoke in a whisper, We lost miserably. Wei Xiao stared at the screen. Coach, if they release the shadow thief, snatch it up. Chen Fengs gaze grew sharp, Okay. On the TPT side. Eurostar was bold and elated. 5v5 is so satisfying. Just thinking about how I, Eurostar-star, actually had a chance to smear the grandmaster all over the ground. Fu Li released his mouse and picked up the thermos cup beside him. He spoke slowly and leisurely, Ban the berserker thief in the next match. Eurostar blinked, It shouldnt be to that point Fu Li: Quiet has some skill. It was rare for Eurostar to see such a serious expression on his captains face. Let the shadow thief out? Fu Li: Yes. Eurostar thought about it, then said, There isnt enough sample material. The nine light arcs arent as easy to target. Fu Li: Thats why we need to collect samples. The second match started immediately. The BP segment went by faster than before, and it could be seen that both sides had ideas of their own. TPT released the shadow thief, and FTW insta-locked it with their first pick. They werent ambiguous about it at all. The scrolling comments were still kicking up a fuss, Theres no use letting out the shadow thief. FTWs entire state has already collapsed. Can Quiet even show off nine light arcs? I think its unlikely. Fellow brothers, listen to big brother: hurry and bet on TPT winning 2:0, youre guaranteed to make a profit! There was a guessing and betting channel in Glory. The betting coins had no real value, but if players saved up, they could use them to trade for game props. This meant that players would really get into it. Okay! Laozi is going to use his life savings and bet on TPT shutting out FTW! Dont worry, just wait. Youll make a fortune. There were others who were wailing, I gave all my wealth to FTW before the match. Win for me! Im not betting on the scores, just betting on winning or losing. I dont care about anything else, FTW has to win tonight! Wuwuwu, I dont want my betting coins, I just want my cubs to win the game! The audience watching offsite always deviated from the truth by a lot! Everyone was booing FTW, but the experts all knew that FTW was on the rise! As soon as the second match began, Wei Xiao said to Bai Cai, Follow Old Yue. Bai Cai: Okay. Wei Xiao continued, speaking to the others, Keep the same state from the last match. Ning Zhehan was still a little worried. Will it work Every player from TPT is very strong. Wei Xiao: Were not weak either. Ning Zhehans momentum soared up again, Yeah! They werent weak either, or rather, it should be said that they were very strong! They were FTW, last years champion team! They were the number one team in their group, a team that had won nine out of their ten games! Ning Zhehan was instantly injected with chicken blood and filled with energy. Fu Li had already sensed the change in FTW after the end of the first match, and it only became more obvious in this game. It was quite magical. Hed seen too many FTW games: the ones from the past seasons, the current games, the ones from the winter training camp, the ones during the regular season, and even countless training games. He had analyzed carefully, pondered and dissected every game. So, he was very clear on the habits of every FTW starter. For example, how their mid-jungler linkage worked, how their bottom lane and support began their attacks, and even the way Tang Chen pushed towers With all these things in mind, Fu Li could easily analyze their rhythm and set up ambushes according to their movements. Theyd done so during the first half of the first game, catching FTW off guard and causing them to fall into a dangerous situation. But soon, this team changed. This change was the most subtle thing. They clearly had a sense of having trained with each other, and clearly had some stability when it came to their habits, but they were still able to go back to the state theyd been in at the start of the regular season. Being able to do this was amazing, but did they think that they could win against TPT with this? Too naive. Wasnt that just a big pit? TPT wasnt afraid of a team that had tacit understanding. How could they be afraid of a team that had no cooperation? Fu Li wanted to use this opportunity to test out Wei Xiaos shadow thief. Unfortunately, it was only after the game that he understood why FTW dared to play like this. Seven minutes into the game, in the bottom lane dragon pit, Fu Li commanded, Ambush. The shadow thief will pass by. Eurostar: Ill hold Lele back. Fu Li: Mm. Old Wu, come with me. Wu Si was TPTs jungler, a very good blue collar jungler. Okay. They squatted in the grass near the dragon pit and avoided being seen. Sure enough, the shadow thief appeared five seconds later. Fu Li: Go. Wu Si was using the power thief. He didnt hesitate to use a ground stab, wanting to catch the shadow thief and pull him over. But who couldve known that the shadow thief would react very quickly? It moved away from the ground stab and instantly entered stealth mode. In this game, Fu Li had taken the fire mage. It wasnt very agile, and it was also very squishy. He spoke unhurriedly, Protect me. Based on Wei Xiaos temperament, he would never retreat from a battle after a first encounter. He would definitely make his way around and aim for the c-position. Wu Si was already protecting the fire mage, waiting with a ground stab. As long as the shadow thief came, he would control him to death. But Wei Xiao didnt go. Instead, he headed straight for the ancient creature. Fu Li: Wu Si was stunned. He Fu Li spoke calmly, Spread apart. Hes starting to stack up damage. If he wanted to brush out nine light arcs, he would have to stack up the damage. These stacks didnt have to come from enemy heroes. It could also be built up by hitting jungle creeps. It was just that the duration of the stacks was very short, and the player had to be very stable. Otherwise, the stack count would drop, and they wouldnt even be able to think about brushing out a high arc count if they couldnt build up enough damage and marks. Wu Si found it astounding. The wolves are so far away from the dragon. Does he have time to stack up damage? He did. Fu Li: As long as hed long guessed that were here, then yes. His words had just fallen when nine light arcs exploded across the river. The huge attack range ensured that the fire mage with short legs wouldnt be able to avoid it completely. Less than one tenth of the total damage landed on Fu Li, but Fu Lis health bar fell to the bottom. Wu Si still had his movement skill and was able to hide further away. He didnt lose any health, but Hed pulled away from the fire mage! By the time Wu Si reacted to this, it was already too late. The shadow thief landed after the light arcs. Its movement skill had just come off cooldown, and he shifted forward twice, taking away the helpless Captain Fus life. System AnnouncementCC First Blood! FTW. Quiet killed TPT.Auroral (Fu Li). In FTWs team chat. Bai Cai: Old Wei, beautiful! Little Ning reincarnated as a little fanboy. Brother Xiao, how did you know that God Li would be there? Oh my god, could this be the legendary I predicted your prediction? Sure enough, he was a real expert. Amaz Ning Zhehans worship hadnt yet finished flowing through his blood when Wei Xiao answered him, Accident. Ning Zhehan: ??? Wei Xiao: I was originally stacking up the damage to give the small dragon nine light arcs. Who couldve known that I would encounter love on a street corner? After the game, Fu Li watched the replay along with FTWs team chat, God Li had to drink three cups of black coffee with goji berries. xiin: that coffee sounds really nasty Chapter 145: He wanted to hug him, wanted to kiss him, wanted to bring him hope personally. The FTW team chat was filled with laughter, and the previous hazy restraint was swept away. Bai Cai: This could only happen to you. Although this was a bit different from the scenario Little Ning had come up with, but it was still awesome! Ning Zhehan: Brother Xiao, badass! Wei Xiao was restrained. It was just luck. Everyone was even more amused. The commentators were stunned by their laughter when the camera switched to show the FTW players. They went on to say, It seems that the atmosphere in FTW is very good. Although theyve lost one small point, they seem to be dealing well with the overall situation. I wonder how FTW will break TPTs strategy in this game. Lets watch together! The scrolling comments were also murmuring amongst themselves, Theyre still so happy during a decisive game? Wasnt it just First Blood? Is that anything to brag about? Could it be that theyre giving up the game and planning to go home directly with a 0:2? Its over, its over, it wasnt easy for them to get lucky once like a blind cat finding a dead mouse. Once their egos get inflated, theyll be done for again. Seriously, I dont think that Quiets First Blood was obtained with his eyes closed. Analysis emperors showed up immediately. Wei Xiao definitely sensed something. Just think about it, who would start brushing out nine light arcs for a small dragon? But there was no vision in that spot. How could Wei Xiao know that Fu Li was squatting there? This jungler of FTWs really isnt simple. Not only does he have excellent operations and a strong sense of awareness, he can even keep up with Captain Fu. A fangirl interjected, And hes also very handsome! The analysis emperors turned a blind eye to this scrolling comment and continued to chatter away, Unfortunately, theres no way to watch a replay in the live broadcast, but based on my own memory, Ive captured three main points. First of all, Quiet started to stack damage with the wolves. This distance was very subtle. Look at the line chart; as long as the shadow thief arrives at this position, goes up, then turns back, hes bound to be able to (700 words omitted here) It has to be said that Quiet is a real and genuine opportunist. The scrolling comments were filled with large segments of text; there was reasoning and explanations everywhere. The little members of the general audience didnt quite get it but felt that they were all very amazing. When they went back to Glorys Mic Explosion King later when the team chat had been released to the publicCC The analysis emperors: Im sorry, Ive disturbed you. Just let me retire, isnt that enough?! No matter what the truth was, FTW really found a breakthrough in this game! There was heavy significance to killing Captain Fu. Not only did it break their ambush, it had also disrupted the rhythm of TPTs game. Although Fu Li could still look at the overall situation and give instructions and arrangements to his teammates while dead, hed lost parts of his vision after dying. He couldnt move when he was dead on the ground, and there were only four TPT members who could move around now. With only four pieces of vision, his decisions were bound to be less comprehensive than they would be if there were five. At least 700 out of the 800 words of the analysis emperors essays were bullshit, but the last sentence was true. Wei Xiao was an opportunist. Regardless of whether it was intentional or not, once he latched onto his opponents throat, he would chase after them relentlessly, hammering TPT until they were crying with scrunched up faces! Fu Li had only just resurrected and hadnt yet come out of the fountain when a fierce group fight broke out on the bottom lane. FTW had two reckless players, but the number one position didnt go to Wei Xiao. It was Yue Wenle. God Le had long been unhappy with Eurostar. It was fortunate that this death fearing thing used to play in the top lane, because now, hed become so cowardly he was like a steamed bun. So what if he was an ADC? ADCs could also play tough! Yue Wenle hadnt been able to obtain any advantages in the previous game, but he managed to catch a few opportunities in this game. As soon as Wei Xiao came down, he shot at Eurostar like crazy, rolling and flipping around, breaking through his armor and using basic attacks to take down half of Eurostars health with a swish. TPTs support was scared into hurriedly healing him back up, wishing he could feed his own health to their Eurostar-star. Eurostar perked up his ears. I always feel like theres a grandmaster nearby. His captain said, Be a bit more confident. Get rid of the feel like. Eurostar: ! The shadow thief directly snuck around the back of the tower, using its shadow attack to change positions, and killed him off easily with basic attacks. Cool! Two kills at the start of the game, and its the two c-positions. FTWs rising up to heaven in this game! The inherited shadow thief is real, this talent really shouldnt be released! Quiet!! Mama loves you!! Keep it up!!! Hammer the Li-Star CP until theyre ill-fated mandarin ducks! The Li-Star sisters werent happy. Theres no need to step on us like this. Your own seclusion sisters house has already collapsed! Um The dispute between CPs had always been fruitless since ancient times. This segment will be cut short. FTWs farm was snowballing quickly, relying entirely on pure recklessness. We heard that your TPT is like a net. Can your net catch a bunch of thorns? Sorry, any thorn that could get caught in the net simply wasnt hard enough. Well be tough to the extreme and pierce through your net! In the last wave, Quiet gave Eurostar-star a very beautiful nine light arcs. Eurostar wailed loudly, My flash, invincibility, resurrection armor, and hidden knife have all been used up! So, he could only wait to die. After Eurostar fell, Fu Li forcibly killed off Tang Chen and Bai Cai. Brother Cai roared, Old Wei, get revenge for me! Wei Xiao: Kay. The shadow thief stabbed the fire mage in the back. The blood blade flashed, destroying his soul and taking his life! Fu Li fell to the ground. TPT had already come to the end of their road in this game. Wei Xiao and Yue Wenle went straight to TPTs crystal alongside the super soldiers and blew up TPTs base with guns and blood blades. Victory! FTW had pulled the score back! The score was now 1:1, and the next match would be the real showdown. Who won and who lost would all depend on this last match. After two matches was a half-time break. The players stepped down one after another and went to the backstage lounge. Chen Feng was waiting for them there. Wei Xiao and the others pushed the door in and were surprised to find two outsiders. Cong Yi greeted them, Hello, Im FTWs substitute Yiyi. Bai Cai: Little Ning: Yue Wenle: Crunch. Wei Xiao: Yiyi? Youre so disgusting. Cong Yi: The names you call out are even more disgusting! The two people whod been acting as substitutes on the bench had also followed them into the lounge. Brother Sleep leaned against the sofa, half-awake. It was obvious that hed been concentrating on watching the game just now and had exhausted all his energy reserves. Wei Xiao sat next to him and poked him. What are you doing here? Asleep: Wei Xiao didnt need Cong Yi to translate for him. He could chat with Sleep God for half an hour all on his own, Dont think about coveting my position. Laozis strong and healthy and in excellent condition. I dont need a substitute! He now had a psychological shadow when it came to the word substitute and would be flustered no matter who it was. Asleep pried his eyelids open far enough to glance at him. Win. Wei Xiao: Nonsense. Not only will we win against TPT, well also beat you guys up until youre looking for your teeth all over the place in the playoffs. Asleep: Fart. Wei Xiao forcibly misinterpreted Brothers words, No, no, no, were all brother teams, how could we beat you up until youre farts. Asleep: The whole room of people: Little Ning turned his head to look at Cong Yi and found that Sleep Gods exclusive translator was very calm and even smiling and laughing. He didnt seem to show even the slightest intention of helping out his own captain. Sure enough God Yi was black on the inside. Ning Zhehan shivered. Chen Feng saw that there wasnt much time left and reminded them, What ideas do you have for the next match? Wei Xiao: When faced with Fu Li, you cant have too many ideas. This man was too damned ghostly. It was like that pair of eyes was equipped with a microcomputer; how else could he predict so accurately! Ning Zhehan echoed him, Yes yes yes, we can only rely on luck. The entire room fell quiet. Little Ning was confused. Isnt that so? Wei Xiao was amused. Thats right, luck is also a kind of strength. Chen Feng was too lazy to say too much about it and continued, Are you going to take the shadow thief in the next match? This was what Chen Feng was worried about. Wei Xiao didnt care either way. If they dare to let it out, well take it. Chen Feng was attentive. Winning the game, but losing in terms of intelligence. Wei Xiao laughed briefly. Whats there to be scared of? The playoffs are still a long way away. Chen Fengs eyebrows twisted together. Wei Xiao took a look at the time and stood up. As long as we grow fast enough, he wont have a chance to calculate our moves. In the face of absolute strength, all bells and whistles were nothing but paper tigers. After his voice fell, everyone in the whole room couldnt help but look at him. Wei Xiao beckoned. Lets go. Its the last game. I want to win. He hadnt touched his cell phone from the beginning to end. He didnt dare look, didnt dare ask, and didnt dare to think about it. All he could do right now was one thing: Win. Win the game. Take first place in the group stage. Wait for the captains return! The third match began. In the first wave of bans, everyones eyes widened. The game developers also really knew how to stir things up. The guessing and betting section was very fancy and even let the audience guess which player would use which talent. There was doubt over whether or not Quiet would take the shadow thief, and it had become a hot topic. 80% of the voters felt that he wouldnt, and the analysis they provided was very logicalCC He definitely cant get it. Is TPT stupid? They were hammered so miserably in the previous game, how would they dare to let out the shadow thief to Little Lunatic Q again? Even if TPT lets it out, I feel that FTW wont take it, either. What do you mean? This is a trump card. Take a look at what kind of ghostly team TPT is, if they show their family wealth twice, do you really think that God Li will be merciful? That makes sense! This is just a small game in the regular season. If they lose, its just one point and wont affect either teams ability to enter the playoffs. There isnt much difference between being first in the group and second in the group. Theyre both in the winner group and will be able to abuse the weak in the first round of the playoffs. I believe you, I believe you, I bet that Quiet wont take the shadow thief! 100,000 betting coins right here. If I lose, I wont bet again during this regular season! There were also 20% of the voters who guessed that he would take it. As for these people I dont care, I just want to see my cubs nine light arcs. I dont care, my husband has to win, he must win! Fighting, God Q! Dont let your sister down! The yelling had just turned fierce when the votes for Wei Xiao taking the shadow thief suddenly increased by two million betting coins. Holy shit, whered this rich person come from? So many betting coins this is a big move. Who is it??? Who else other than my God Yi has so many betting coins? At this time, the camera switched to show the substitute bench and landed on Cong Yi, catching him as he was playing with his cell phone. The scrolling comments: Glory had two betting coin emperors. One was Fu Li, which wasnt surprising. Following this man, who could calculate three steps with every step in the canyon, was the right choice. As for the other one, it was 3Us vice-captainCCCong Yi. This fellow was low-key and didnt reveal anything, but he always went against the trend and turned the tables every time. Like this time Everyone was already certain that Wei Xiao wouldnt take the shadow thief, but hed smashed millions down on the guess that he would take it. Many players panicked Holy shit, was it too late to change their bets now?! It was too late, because BP had already started, and the betting coins interface was locked. TPT banned the berserker thief with their first ban, banned the immortal warlock with their second ban, banned the gold hunter with their third ban F*ck, TPT really didnt ban the shadow thief! It was now FTWs turn to snatch up a talent. Wei Xiao was first and clicked accurately on the shadow thief. Hed already locked the talent in within the first second. The vast majority of betting coins players, . Shit, they were bankrupt ahhhhhhhh! Cong Yi looked at his account that now had over six million and smiled calmly. Sigh, for professional players like them, they already had too much of these kinds of game props. It was meaningless to have more betting coins, but Looking at it made him happy. As early as during FTWs second match, Lu Feng had already finished his physiotherapy for the day. The check-up results from earlier had also come out. The doctor in charge was happier than he was. His pen landed on the report, and he went over the data with him in detail, one by one. Lu Feng sat beside him quietly, polite and attentive, listening carefully without missing a word. Finally, the doctor slapped the board. Persist with treatment! There will be results! Lu Feng calmly thanked him and stood up to leave the hospital. It was a sunny day outside. The sun shone down from the sky, covering everything. Lu Fengs fingertips were trembling. Spring was already here. But he hadnt felt the budding warmth until today. Lu Feng pulled out his cell phone and started up the live broadcast for the competition. The scene that entered his eyes was the scene of victory. A huge Victory that belonged to FTW. The camera panned to the contestant seats, where his FTW were all brimming with wide smiles. Lu Feng pressed the pause button. The screen stopped moving. Wei Xiao was still sitting in the e-sports chair, a smile on the corner of his lips, but it couldnt cover a faint trace of worry in his dark eyes. No one noticed, no one understood. Only Lu Feng knew what he was thinking about. The emotions that surged up instantly made his heart soften and melt. He couldnt wait. He couldnt even wait for another second. He wanted to hug him, wanted to kiss him, wanted to bring him hope personally. FTWs last game against TPT had been very tense and anxious. FTW had finally ended the game with a brilliant nine light arcs. When shaking hands, Fu Li stared at Wei Xiao. See you in the playoffs. Wei Xiao: Next time, itll be 2:0. Fu Li smiled slightly, Okay. Theyd see who would 2:0 the other party in the playoffs! The joy of winning the game after losing the first match was indescribable. Little Ning was all kinds of excited, hooking his arm around Yue Wenles shoulders, incredibly happy and proud. Chen Feng shot him a look but didnt say anything out loud. Even so, his meaning was conveyed: Youll be crying when we review the replay. FTWs great hero, the Wei Xiao whod led the whole team to win the last match in the game, was finding it difficult to smile. Bai Cai noticed it. Whats the matter, daddy shadow thief? Wei Xiao: Bai Cai glanced at the cell phone he was holding tightly and understood in his heart. Go and report the good news to the captain. Ill cover for you. He thought that Wei Xiao wanted to have a sweet moment. After all, winning against TPT was something worth showing off. The Brother Cai whod been solo from birth felt a little choked. Wei Xiao answered, Mm. He took his cell phone with him and found a quiet place. After theyd finished the game, gone through the interview process, and eaten something backstage, it was already 12:30PM. The captain must have already finished with his check-up. Why hadnt he sent him a message? Were the results bad? Wei Xiaos eyelashes trembled, and the joy of winning the game disappeared without a trace. Instead of texting, he made an international call. There was a busy tone coming from the other sideCCSorry, the number you dialed cant be connected for the moment. Wei Xiaos heart pounded. He was a little flustered. Sure enough, the results must be bad. Wei Xiao suppressed the cold that swept over his whole body and sent Lu Feng a message, Captain, I won. After he sent it out, nobody replied to him right away. Wei Xiaos eyes stung, and he had to hold back tears, Its okay, its okay no matter what. With me here, FTW will always win. Although I really want to fight shoulder to shoulder with you, it doesnt matterCCIll guard FTW. The author has something to say: Its coming, a big gift bag. xiin: hey everyone, i will be taking a week off from posting after this chapter. my RL work has gotten really busy due to the Chinese New Year break and ive been basically doing nothing but working, sleeping, and eating @[email protected] updates will resume on the 21st/22nd of Feb~ Chapter 146: Lu Feng bowed his head and kissed him. He waited for a while but still didnt get a reply. Wei Xiao glanced at the time and could only go back to the lounge. They had to pack up and return to the base. He couldnt make everyone wait such a long time for him. He pushed open the door and walked in. Bai Cai glanced over, originally planning to tease him secretly, but he then saw that the corners of his eyes were a little red. Brother Cai: What was the situation? Why was he crying after winning the game? Wei Xiao was afraid that he would notice and turned his face away to talk to Ning Zhehan. Brother Cai: This cover up couldnt be more obvious. There were many people in the lounge, and it wasnt convenient for him to ask about it. He could only continue to discuss the game just now. In the van, Brother Cai sat down beside Wei Xiao very naturally. Wei Xiao looked down at his cell phone from time to time absent-mindedly. Bai Cai lowered his voice and asked, Whats the matter? Did you fight? Fight with the captain? Little Lunatic Wei would actually fight with the captain? How did they fight? Brother Cais pitiful brain really couldnt imagine it. Wei Xiao: No. After saying this, he felt that he hadnt stressed it enough and emphasized, I wouldnt fight with the captain. Bai Cai peeked at him. Then whats the deal with your expression that looks like youre about to cry? Wei Xiao: After two seconds of silence, Daddy Wei turned his head away coolly. Whos about to cry? Brother Cai: Wei Xiao threatened him, Do you believe that daddy wont hammer you until youre about to cry! Bai Cai rolled his eyes at him. Laozis too lazy to pay attention to you. Wei Xiao ignored him and turned his head to the window, staring out at the street lights. The greenery in S City was getting better and better. The camphor trees by the side of the road were well illuminated even late at night, and the dense branches and green leaves looked even more beautiful than they did during the day. Wei Xiao looked outside in a daze and thought of the garden in the base. Spring had really arrived. The magnolias were blooming, one beautiful white flower blossoming after another, and the purple plum trees were also covered with small cloud-like flowers There had clearly been none of that when the captain had left. Wei Xiao lowered his eyelashes. When the captain came back, it would be about time for those beautiful flowers to fall. During the trip all the way back to the base, his cell phone never made a sound. It was already so late, and they naturally wouldnt do the game replay now. Chen Feng told them to tidy up their things and go to sleep, Tomorrow is Monday. Theres no game, so get some proper rest. Theyd once again ushered in the off-season that came once a week. Although it was short, it also allowed them to take a slight breather. Wei Xiao slowly went up the stairs and threw himself onto the bed after he entered his room. Soybean had just woken up. It whined as it ran up to him. Wei Xiao rubbed its doggy head and asked it, Why is he ignoring me? Soybean stared at him with its big eyes. Ao! Daddy, what are you talking about? Wei Xiao patted it on the head. What are you ao-ing for! Soybean sensed that he was in a bad mood and whined slightly, pushing its head against him. Spring had arrived. Not only were the flowers blooming, dog fur was also flying everywhere like crazy. Wei Xiao was forced to eat a mouthful of dog fur and was filled with disdain for it. Go over there, go over there However, Brother Soy was a real son and couldnt be driven away or beaten up. Other than being hugged to sleep, it was useless everywhere else. Wei Xiao had originally thought that he wouldnt be able to sleep, but after washing up and collapsing into bed, he soon fell into dreamland. He was too tired. During this past week, hed always been as taut as a string. In the moment where it was all over, he was thoroughly tired out. FTW had won against TPT. Hed won. But what about the captain What exactly did he have to do, in order in order for the captain to get better. Feelings of helplessness and powerlessness all swarmed into his heart, pressing down on him until he couldnt breathe. Wei Xiao had nightmares all night, one after another, absurd pieces and short scenes that were both fragmented and maddeningCC The magnolia flowers in the base hung suspended like lotus flowers out of the water, hanging alone on the branches. A gust of wind blew over, and the white petals fell, landing on the ground, on the pedestrians shoulders, drifting in the cold air. Lu Feng stood beneath the magnolia tree and spoke to him in a light voice, Ive stopped physiotherapy. Wei Xiao felt like hed been struck with lightning, shivering with cold. Lu Feng apologized to him, Im sorry, Ive disappointed you. Wei Xiao woke up from the nightmare. It was dark in the room. He sat up under the dark gray quilt, his short hair damp with sweat, sticking to his pale face. A drop of sweat slid down along his temples and landed on his cold jade-like clavicle with a distinct sound. Half a beat later, he pulled his knees up, clutching at his hair with both hands and squeezing his eyes shut. There was no sound, only a slight trembling along his back. Dont do this Please dont He didnt have parents and had lost his grandmother. The only thing he wanted was Lu Feng. Dont bully him anymore. Please stop bullying my captain. Nightmares came and went quickly. After he pulled open the curtains and saw the bright sunshine outside, Wei Xiaos mood became much better. He went to take a shower, then went downstairs to look for something to eat, having basically tossed the broken and fragmented segments of the dream to the back of his head. Wei Xiao bit down on a small fork and ate bites of watermelon on and off, his left hand gently sliding over his cell phone. There were no missed calls, no messages. There was nothing at all. Wei Xiao looked at the time and couldnt help giving Lu Feng a call. It was still the same busy tone What was going on? Wei Xiao couldnt continue eating anymore. No matter how sweet the watermelon was, it tasted of nothing when it entered his mouth. He frowned and couldnt help sending out another message, Captain? It was still like a stone sinking into the sea. There was no response. It was already eleven oclock in the evening over there. Hadnt the captain returned to his hotel yet? He was in a foreign country. Nothing shouldve happened to him, right? Wei Xiaos heart clenched, and he grew flustered. What to do? Yuan Ze! Wei Xiao slid his finger across his cell phone, pulling up Yuan Zes contact information. Just then, a strange number called in. Wei Xiao was startled and picked up the call, Hello? There was a small pause from the other side before the voice he yearned for transmitted over, Youre awake? Wei Xiaos heart, which had jumped all the way up to his throat, instantly fell back to its original spot and calmed down. How come I couldnt get through to you the whole time? Lu Fengs tone was abashed, I lost my cell phone. Wei Xiao: ! HIs captain who was meticulous when handling affairs and never made mistakes had actually lost his cell phone? Wei Xiao was very surprised, but he also felt that it was strangely cute. The bitterness that hed suppressed all night became sugar, and he couldnt help being happy. Spending money to avert disaster, captain, dont cry. It was over. What should he do about the fact that he found the situation funny? His captain, whod lost his cell phone, must be very anxious and worried, and he didnt know how long it would take to set everything back up again. What Wei Xiao hadnt noticed was that the call came from a domestic phone card. If Lu Feng was abroad, then why would he pick up a domestic phone card? Lu Fengs voice was a little tired, Yesterdays game was great. Wei Xiao had been praised for a whole day and night, but what he wanted to hear most was this sentence from Lu Feng. He spoke with restraint, It was alright, we managed to cobble together a win. Lu Feng laughed lightly, Dont let Fu Li hear you. Wei Xiao bragged, Im not scared of saying it to his face! Lu Feng: Not afraid that hell plot against you? Wei Xiao: Im afraid that he wont! The fatigue that Lu Feng had accumulated after 12 hours of tossing and turning was swept away by his clear voice, Where are you? Wei Xiaos ears were itchy, and his mouth moved faster than his heart, In the dining room, but I can go upstairs immediately if you require coaxing to sleep services. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao licked his lower lip briefly and seduced him deliberately, Do you require my services? Boyfriend. Lu Feng looked out the window at the large stretch of magnolia flowers and breathed in lightly, Yes. Wei Xiao jumped up. Wait for me. He was about to go upstairs immediately, but Lu Feng stopped him, Come out for a while. Wei Xiao: Huh? Lu Feng could see his figure through the window. He spoke in a low voice, Outside the base. Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment. His heart leapt up suddenly and almost stopped. He didnt know how he left the dining room, didnt know how he made it through the living room, and didnt know how he rushed out through the villas automatic door. The spring breeze alternated between cold and warm. It was cold enough to make one shiver in the morning, but was soft enough to send one into a trance at noon. A burst of wind carrying the scent of flowers blew through. Large white petals drifted down with the wind, falling gently on the mans shoulders. His black trench coat stretched down to his calves, the legs contained inside were long and straight, and the first button of his dark shirt was loose, making the curve of his neck and jaw all the more attractive. He stood there amidst the white flowers and gentle breeze, but all of it couldnt compare to the faint smile at the corners of his mouth. Wei Xiao was dazed and tried to blink. Lu Feng called out to him softly, Little Xiao. It was as though a switch was turned on. Wei Xiao rushed over and hugged him hard, Cap The word captain crowded his throat, and he couldnt speak at all. Lu Feng printed a kiss on his ear. Mm. Wei Xiao felt as though hed just been electrocuted. He released his hands and looked at him. You Lu Feng bowed his head and kissed him. Wei Xiao: ! He accidentally bumped into the magnolia tree. The tree wasnt very sturdy, and more magnolia petals shook loose, drifting down like a snowfall in spring. Their lips and teeth entangled, and Wei Xiaos brain was filled with a buzzing sound. He couldnt think of anything at all. He wrapped his arms around Lu Fengs neck and tried to kiss him back. After missing him for so long, waiting for him for so long, the person hed missed every night and every day had appeared in front of him. Even if it was a dream, he was also willing to immerse himself in it. They kissed and hugged. The two people who were panting for breath couldnt let go of each other. Until the sound of the husky drifted over from the distance. Lu Feng pulled Wei Xiao with him to hide deep in the garden. Wei Xiao gasped, Captain Lu Fengs index finger pressed against his reddened lips. Dont make a sound. Wei Xiao wrapped his lips around his finger. Lu Feng: Brother Cai was walking Soybean outside. Bai Cai had been too tired yesterday and had gotten up later than usual. In fact, Soybean had already gone out to run around in the morning, but Brother Soy had become very accustomed to the walks and now had a habit of looking for its Uncle Cai every day. So when it had seen Bai Cai coming down the stairs, it had brought over its dog leash for him. Bai Cai: Alright then, he really lost to this father and son duo. Fortunately, the base was big enough. Brother Soy was used to first running headlong towards the left and didnt notice its two fathers. Lu Feng listened to the sounds, and after making sure no one was there, he held Wei Xiaos hand and ran to the villa. Wei Xiao followed him. He wasnt afraid to run to the ends of the earth as long as they could hold hands like this. When they finally made it back to Wei Xiaos bedroom and closed the door behind them, the two of them looked at each other and smiled. Wei Xiao panted, Why are we acting like thieves? Lu Feng looked at him. I came back secretly. Wei Xiao was a little stunned. His heart that was overflowing with sweetness emptied out slightly, and he thought of his dream. Lu Feng was still talking, Dont make it public. Its not good for them to know. On one hand, explaining it wouldnt be convenient, and on the other hand, it would cause a lot of trouble if the news was leaked out. The smile on Wei Xiaos lips faded. He lowered his eyelashes, stared at his toes, and asked, Why did you fly back so suddenly? If he was avoiding people like this, it should mean that he hadnt stopped treatment. So, why had he come back? Lu Feng pulled out the check up document like performing a magic trick. I wanted to show it to you personally. Wei Xiaos eyes were fixed on the paper. In the next second, he practically snatched up the thin piece of paper and brought it closer to him. Lu Feng didnt say anything. He just looked at him. Wei Xiao opened his eyes wide as he looked at the report. He didnt even waste time blinking and only hated the fact that his English wasnt fluent enough for him to read it at a glance so that he could clearly understand what the results were in the shortest possible time. Lu Feng explained, Theres been a turn for the better. If I persist for another month, it will basically recover. There was a rustle. A huge tear dropped down onto the thin piece of paper that held many creases. Lu Feng hadnt taken anything with him when he flew back from North America. Hed even had his cell phone stolen from him when he was at the airport. All he had left with him was his airplane ticket, his ID, some cash, and the check up report. Hed kept it against his chest for 12 hours just so that he could bring it back for Wei Xiao to see. Wei Xiao saw it, saw it clearly, and understood it clearly. His tears kept flowing, but he couldnt bear to put it down. Lu Feng was distressed. Its alright, its He hadnt finished speaking when he saw Wei Xiao close his eyes and kiss the report gently. His expression was almost pious There was a bang. Lu Feng could hear the sound of his own heart beating. He whipped away the tearstained report. Wei Xiao looked up blankly. Lu Feng threw the thin sheet of paper aside, pressed him up against the door, and kissed him on the lips. It wasnt gentle, it wasnt restrained. It was rough as all the feelings that had been suppressed for a long time poured into the kiss. The author has something to say: Hehe xiin: surprise! Chapter 147: He just wanted to keep the captain hidden in his room like this... Wei Xiao couldnt resist at all, but even if he was dizzy from the lack of oxygen, he couldnt bear to push Lu Feng away. Finally, it was Lu Feng who let him go first. Wei Xiao leaned against the door, gasping for breath, but it didnt stop him from talking nonsense, Captain, hold me up, I cant stand steady. Then, he put Lu Fengs hands on his own waist. The string that had already been stretched to the limit suddenly snapped. Lu Feng held him by the waist and lifted him up. Wei Xiao: Ah! He pressed down on Lu Fengs right shoulder, his eyes wide with fright. He wanted to move, but was afraid of hurting Lu Fengs left shoulder that had only just started recovering Lu Feng took a few steps, then threw him down onto the bed. Wei Xiao fell into the quilt, then watched as Lu Feng bodily pressed him down. Cap-captain His voice was as soft as a kittens. Lu Feng leaned over and bit down on his pale neck. It wasnt light or heavy, but it gained him Wei Xiaos low moan in response. This made things even worse. Lu Feng pulled aside his loose t-shirt, and fine kisses rained down. Wei Xiaos body trembled slightly. He was both obedient and nervous, unconsciously biting down on his lower lip and suppressing his voice. Lu Feng: Call out to me. Wei Xiaos heart thumped, his eyes lustrous and shining. Captain Lu Feng: Mm. His low voice was so sexy it turned him into a mess. Wei Xiao really hadnt known that he could be so sensitive. His unfocused eyes slowly focused, and Wei Xiaos expression was a little slack. Lu Feng kissed him on the forehead. Does it feel good. Wei Xiaos throat was very dry. Yes. Lu Fengs pair of black eyes looked straight into his own. Do you want more? Wei Xiao nodded dazedly, as though bewitched. And then Wuwuwu. Captain No, dont By the time he was soaking in the bathtub, Wei Xiao felt that hed already died from shame. Why the hell had he cried? His tear glands were too developed! There was nothing to cry about. But As soon as he thought back, his scalp felt numb, and his entire body trembled. He quietly sank down into the water, leaving only his eyes above the water, and then Shit, I only cared about feeling good myself. The captain Wei Xiao came out of the bathtub with a splash. Lu Feng was in the shower, and Wei Xiao walked in naked just like that. Lu Feng: Wei Xiaos guts were as big as the sky when he went in, but after he saw him, he blushed all the way to the tips of his ears. Captain He looked straight at the place that he shouldnt look at. Lu Feng was already trying to hold back. Now, he just felt that all his blood was concentrated in that one place. Wei Xiaos throat was dry. He swallowed, Um, why are you so big wu mm Dont ask. If you ask, then Wei Little Xiao ended up crying again. Only after both of them were slightly satisfied did they cuddle together in bed to chat. Wei Xiao didnt want to talk. His mouth hurt. Lu Fengs heart ached for him. I told you not to make trouble. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng kissed him. Be good. Wei Xiao pressed him down with his body and bit his neck. Lu Feng smothered a laugh. Wei Xiao looked at the tooth marks hed left behind and felt satisfied. Next time, Im also going to take a long, long time He was so quick every time, but the captain was so slow. He was really suffering losses! Lu Feng rubbed his hair. Okay. Wei Xiaos desire for victory rose up again. I can last for a long, long time! Lu Feng stared at him. Well, want to try it now? Wei Xiao wilted. No way, if we do it again, even eating deer antlers wont be enough for me to recover. It was too shameful that his kidneys were so deficient it made his legs soft! The two of them cuddled together. After listening to the other partys heartbeat for a while, Wei Xiao couldnt help himself again, You couldve just sent over the report for me to look at. Why did you come back? Worry reared its head after happiness passed by. This journey wasnt very far and only took a day and a night for a return journey, but even without considering the wasted time, it was also too tiring on the traveler. Lu Feng liked this kind of feeling where he could kiss him just by bowing his head. Missed you. So, he had wanted to come back no matter how far it was or how troublesome it was. Wei Xiao couldnt keep the corners of his lips from curving up. His heart was sweeter than if it had been smeared in honey. I missed you too. After saying so, he pecked Lu Fengs mouth. Lu Feng refused to let him leave and pressed down on the back of his head to kiss him back. There was no way for the two of them to hold a conversation. They obviously had a lot to say, but when they saw each other, they just wanted to kiss, hug, and do some shameless things. In fact, there wasnt any need to say too much. This had been a depressing and painful week for Wei Xiao. How could it not be the same for Lu Feng? His shoulder injury was a sickness that lived in the hearts of both people. If it couldnt be cured, then neither of them would be let off. When Lu Feng watched the Wei Xiao who was battling in the competition arena, all he had felt was pain that cut at his skin. His days and nights, his struggle and hard work, his tears and sweat, they were all knives that were stabbing into Lu Fengs body. One game after another. Wei Xiao shouldered this heavy responsibility that was as big as a mountain on his thin shoulders and watching it made Lu Fengs heart hurt. Wei Xiao longed for him to get better. How could he not want himself to get better as well? In the first three years, for the sake of FTW, for the sake of the people who supported him, for the sake of proving something, hed pushed on until now without paying attention to anything else. Hed originally thought that hed be satisfied as long as he could win the global championship this year and could retire, but Wei Xiao had appeared. New desire seeped into his blood and bones, kindling new hope. Not only did he want to win the championship this year, he also wanted to accompany Wei Xiao in continuing down this path. In this short e-sports career, he hoped that he could walk to the end with him, side by side. It was too hard being alone. Lu Feng knew what it was like, so he didnt want to leave Wei Xiao alone in the competition arena. Wei Xiao started to ask about everything in a rambling manner. For example, captain, your luck was really good for you to be able to book a ticket on the day of the flight. Lu Feng didnt explain. In fact, his flight ticket had been reserved as early as last week. He wouldve come back no matter what the results were. The only difference was whether or not he wouldve gone back to North America afterwards. Wei Xiao continued, You didnt send me a message before you left. I was so anxious. Lu Feng explained, You were still playing when I left. I was worried that you mightve given your cell phone to someone else. It wouldve been very troublesome if his message was seen. By the time he arrived at the airport, saw that the time was about right, and wanted to send a message to Wei Xiao, he discovered that hed lost his cell phone. Wei Xiao understood what he meant and said in a small voice, I had a nightmare last night. Lu Fengs heart melted. He hugged him. Im sorry. Wei Xiao breathed in lightly, I dreamt that you came back. Lu Feng listened. Mm? Wei Xiao thought back to that dream, and his heart felt a pain that was like it was being burned. Really, I dreamed that you were standing under the magnolia flowers and told me that youd stopped the treatment. You also told me that it couldnt be cured His voice choked. Lu Fengs heart ached so much it was a mess. He wanted to comfort him yet also couldnt say anything, because this dreamCC If the results from this weeks treatment really had turned out to be bad, then he really wouldve given up and come back to accompany him to finish the final games. Wei Xiao buried himself in his arms. Lu Feng kissed the top of his hair and coaxed him, Its alright, Ill still be getting proper treatment. For Wei Xiao to have this dream meant that hed been aware of his mood. Even if Lu Feng didnt say anything, even if they were thousands of miles apart, Wei Xiao still knew what he was thinking. Dreams reflected reality to a certain extent. This reflection wasnt only in Wei Xiaos mind. Wei Xiao muttered for a while, then looked up at him with a pair of bright eyes, I didnt expect that you would really come back, and actually come back with good news! Lu Feng smiled as well. Mm. Wei Xiao leaned in to kiss him again. Wei Little Xiao was always the one to start things, and he was also the one who asked for mercy. Unfortunately, his body might beg for mercy, but his mouth would still be very honest the next time. As they chatted, they slowly came to the problem of the lost cell phone. Lu Feng comforted him. I put in a request to destroy all the data on it as soon as it was lost. After logging into his account directly, he could format all the information on his cell phone remotely. With that, he wouldnt have to worry about leaking any information, and hed already asked Xiang Liu to recover his cell phone number. Wei Xiao was relieved, but he began to worry about other things. When will you go back? Lu Feng: Ill stay for two days. Wei Xiao knew the score, but he still couldnt hide his disappointment. It just so happens that theres no game over these few days. Lu Feng looked at him. You dont need to train? Wei Xiao was shocked. What time is it! Coincidentally, the sound of the door lock being turned came in from outside. Old Wei, are you not awake yet? Arent you playing in the training match this afternoon? Wei Xiao: !!! Lu Feng: Bai Cai had the key to Wei Xiaos bedroom. After all, he had to come and pick up Brother Soy; how could he get in without a key? If he had to wake up Wei Xiao every time, hed end up in a fight every time. Fortunately, Wei Xiaos room was a suite. There was a living room outside, which meant that stepping through the door didnt mean that everything could be seen with a glance. Wei Xiao hurriedly got out of bed and locked the bedroom door. Bai Cai heard the sound of movement, What? Whyre you locking the door? Wei Xiao pulled on his clothes as he spoke, Im not wearing any clothes. Bai Cai tsked, There isnt As he spoke, he remembered that Beast Wei was now a gay man, and he should be a little more serious. As soon as Wei Xiao heard the start of this sentence, he knew that no good words could come out of his vegetables mouth. He reacted even faster than Brother Vegetable and interrupted him directly, Have some self-respect, Laozis in a relationship! Bai Cai: Bah! Brother Vegetable couldnt go in. He stood guard outside and muttered, Hurry up. The coach is going to skin you if were late. Wei Xiao looked at the captain hidden in his room and couldnt help making a bratty remark, Im willing to lose a layer of skin if it means that I can stay with you a bit longer. Hed spoken in a low voice, but Brother Cai still heard a bit of it, What? Wei Xiao would speak words of love to Lu Feng, but it was all curses when it came to Bai Cai, Get lost, Laozill go downstairs in a moment! Bai Cai didnt think much of it. Youre just gay, yet youre making it all like youre a young girl from a noble family. He left after disdaining him. Wei Xiao let out a breath of relief after blasting away Brother Cai. He turned back to say to Lu Feng, Get some sleep. Lu Feng was still undressed, the dark gray quilt covering his lower body from the waist down. His well-built body was outlined by the light, making Wei Xiao unable to move his gaze away. Wei Xiao felt his eyes heat up from looking and knelt down on the bed to kiss him again. Lu Feng held him around his waist, his warm fingertips scalding the tip of his heart. Wei Xiao pressed a kiss onto his shoulder. Wait for me. Lu Feng: Go. Wei Xiao turned back repeatedly with each step, speaking again just before he was about to go out the door, Captain Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiaos eyes curved. Is this like keeping a mistress in a love nest? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao slipped away after that sentence. His heart was as delighted as could be! The captain was back, and hed come back just for him. Nobody knew that hed come back, and this was a secret between the two of them. In fact, telling Bai Cai wasnt a big deal. After all, Brother Cai had known about the two of them since a long time ago and at most, hed just be shocked. Nothing else would happen. But Wei Xiao didnt want to tell him. Hiding the captain in his room like this without showing anyone, without anyone knowing, was really too wonderful! Wei Xiao practically floated as he made his way downstairs. He was full of praise when he saw Brother Cai squeezing watermelon juice, Mornin. Bai Cai rolled his eyes. To hell with your morning. Wei Xiao was smiling like a fox as he went over to wait for his watermelon juice. Hurry up, Im thirsty. Bai Cai: Laozi isnt squeezing it for you. If you want to drink juice, then go to the side and get it yourself. Wei Xiaos elbows came down on the board, his eyebrows brimming with his happiness. You dont like drinking watermelon juice. Bai Cai: A cup of juice came out. Wei Xiao snatched it up, tilted his head back, and gulped down half of it in one go. Brother Cai was angry and opened his mouth to scold him, and then his eyes opened wide. Holy shit. Brother Cai went blind. Wasnt that a hickey on Wei Xiaos neck?! Brother Cais heart thumped violently. He panicked. No way, the captain wasnt here. Was Wei Xiao F*ck! Could it be that this beast had given the captain a green hat??? The author has something to say: Cough Glorys number one worry king. Chapter 148: Tell me, who is the wild man in your room? In fact, Lu Feng hadnt left a mark too high up. There were just a few hickies near the bottom of his neck. The lines of Wei Xiaos body were particularly good, both slender and flexible, and his two collarbones were especially sexy when the two of them were moving together, inviting others to want to kiss them. Lu Feng knew how high the collar of their team uniform was, which was why hed marked him so fearlessly. Wei Xiao wouldnt have been exposed if he hadnt been drinking watermelon juice. However Brother Cais eyes were penetrating and understood it clearly with a look. Hed already come up with a 300 word analysis in his mind. Terrible! Too terrible! No wonder Wei Xiao had gotten up so late. No wonder Bai Cai hadnt been allowed into the room. No wonder he was floating like this when he came downstairs. He Bai Cai struck himself so thoroughly with lightning that he was charred on the outside and crispy on the inside. No way, that couldnt be! He drove all these messy thoughts out of his mindCChe didnt believe that Wei Xiao was such a person. Although he was a living and breathing beast, it wasnt to the point where he would do such a beastly thing! The captain had only been gone for a month, yet hed already found a new sweetheart?! It was impossible, it was impossible! Even his straight mans eyesight was enough for him to understand: How was it possible to find another male god on the same level as Close?! Besides, Wei Xiaos feelings for Lu Feng were truer than gold even when he wasnt gay. How could he cheat on him just like that? After some logical, careful thinking, Bai Cai finally came to a conclusion. Allergy! Wei Xiao must be having an allergic reaction to something! There werent mosquitoes in April, so other than an allergy, there was no other possible reason for it! In this way, Brother Cai breathed a sigh of relief, Be careful. If you feel any discomfort anywhere, you should get it treated as soon as possible. Wei Xiao almost choked on his watermelon juice. Ah? Bai Cai pointed to his neck. The red spots there are from an allergy, right? Dont scratch at it. If it gets too severe, then take some antihistamines. Wei Xiao: He set down the watermelon juice and understood what was going on. Like hell it was an allergy, that was all all from the captain With this thought, Wei Xiao reincarnated into a steam train and started sending out smoke! Bai Cai was still talking, But theres no game over the next two days. It should recede even without medicine, right? He drank a sip of his own boiled water and looked up at Wei Xiao. Then: What the hell are you blushing for, Wei Little Xiao? You cant really have Brother Cais whole world collapsed and split apart! Wei Xiao cleared his throat, Are you finished eating? We should go train. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao tightened his collar and asked him cautiously, Can you still see the red spots? Bai Cai shook his head. Wei Xiao relaxed. Lets go. Brother Chen is going to get angry soon. Even drinking a whole tank of water wouldnt be enough to fill in the hole in Bai Cais brain. Old Wei! Wei Xiao felt guilty. Hm? The words arrived in Bai Cais mouth, but he really couldnt ask them out loud. How should he ask what should he ask if it was real F*ck! Impossible! With Brother Cais understanding of Beast Wei, he felt that this person would never do this kind of bastardly thing. So Bai Cai took a deep breath, Although an allergy isnt necessarily a major thing, you should still be careful with it. Fellow brother, act like a person! Wei Xiao was strangely embarrassed, and his gaze skittered away slightly. Mm. Take medicine when its time to take medicine. Mm. Dont end up delaying proper business. Okay. In particular, you cant let things affect the morale of the army! Wei Xiao: ??? Bai Cai explained, I mean, the team will be in trouble if youre sick. If you really f*cking dare to cheat on the captain, FTW will explode on the spot! Wei Xiao disdained him, Enough, stop acting like a nagging granny, I know what Im doing. Like hell it was an allergy. Hed go back and tell the captain to be more careful and stop planting strawberries everywhere. There was a training match between FTW and 3U in the afternoon. They played four rounds, and each side won two. Generally speaking, training matches stopped after four rounds. Playing too many rounds was meaningless, and it was more important to have a summary and go over the game replay after the game. Training matches were very different from regular matches. The players werent as eager to win, and they would try out different line-ups. The coaching team for both sides would focus on trying to obtain data on the other team In summary, training matches shouldnt be played too often. Four or five rounds was enough. Wei Xiao couldnt sit still anymore after it was done. Each game took an average of 40-50 minutes, and after finishing all four rounds, it had already been more than four hours since hed left! In the last game, Wei Xiao was the embodiment of slicing through a knot with a sharp knife. The players could type and chat during a training match. On 3Us side, Li Chun was crying, Brother Xiao, can you spare my small life? What the hell was going on? It was just a training match, why bully people like this?! Wei Xiao didnt say another word. The immortal thief leapt into his face, and ten thousand swords fell at the same time, taking away Little Classmate Chuns life. Li Chun: He wasnt going to type anymore. He opened his mic directly and cried super loudly. Cong Yi stroked his chin and typed in the public channel, In a hurry? Wei Xiao: Yes. Cong Yi: Why? Wei Xiao: I want to accompany my boyfriend! Of course, these words couldnt be spoken out loud. He said, Need to pee. Everyone from 3U: You win! They finished the last game quickly. Chen Feng glanced at him sidelong. Wei Xiao pushed off the floor and stood up. Coach, Im going to the washroom. Chen Feng waved his hand. Hurry back. They still had to go over the game while it was still fresh in their minds. Wei Xiao wanted to be given more time. Um, were not eating first? Chen Feng sneered, You still want to eat after playing so messily? Wei Xiao: Forget it, forget it, hed go check in on the captain first and then figure out the rest later! Wei Xiao walked away so fast he was practically flying. Bai Cais heart, it was pounding repeatedly, beating so hard he almost had a heart attack. Look at how this beast obviously couldnt wait any longer. Look at how his eyebrows were practically dancing with joy. Look at the cell phone hed left all alone on the table! Bai Cai went over these four games and felt that something big had happened. The hickies could be explained away by an allergy, but what could he use to explain away this floating heart? Over the past month, Wei Little Xiaos cell phone had never left his hand. When he did things like going to the toilet, he would undoubtedly be going off to make a phone call. But now? Wei Xiao obviously wasnt going to the washroom, but he actually hadnt taken his cell phone with him! Hed actually left behind such an important tool that was used to contact the captain on the table! Bai Cais heart felt like ashes. He felt like the sky was collapsing. Hed told him not to mess around with an office romance! Something would happen sooner or later! Wei Xiao naturally wasnt going to the toilet. He stealthily snuck back to his room and went to the bedroom to see his captain. Lu Feng was sleeping on his bed. Why would he need to contact him by phone? Hed never been the type who was addicted to his cell phone. Now that the real person was in front of him, why the hell would he cook phone call porridge! Wei Xiao slipped inside and found that the room was very quiet. He walked through the living area carefully and went to the bedroom. The blackout curtains in the bedroom were drawn, and only a small light was on in the corner. The yellow light was like a small campfire in the dark, warm and comfortable. Lu Feng was asleep. That wasnt surprising; it would be morning in North America now, and Lu Feng had been tossing about for so long. It wouldve been strange if he wasnt tired. Wei Xiaos steps grew even lighter, and even his breathing grew quiet. He couldnt bear to wake him up, but he wanted to take a look at him. The night light was very dim. It took a while for Wei Xiaos eyes to adapt enough so that he could see Lu Feng clearly. Hed fallen asleep on his side, the quilt covering him from the chest down and leaving his shoulders and arms uncovered. He wasnt wearing anything on top, and his strong curves were even sexier in the dark. Wei Xiao propped his head up against his hand and watched him, unable to keep the corners of his mouth from curving up. Grandma had said before that beauty was in the eye of the beholder. His lover was even more beautiful than Xi Shi. What to do? Wei Xiao came close and kissed him gently on the cheek. Sweet dreams. Having said that, he got up quietly and prepared to go back out. Youve finished with the training match? The mans deep voice rang out in the dark room. Wei Xiao turned back and looked straight into Lu Fengs dark eyes. Wei Xiao: I woke you up ah He was grabbed by the arm. The world spun, and he landed beneath Lu Fengs body. Lu Feng held his arm and looked down at him. Looking up at the captain from this angle was simply Too deadly! Lu Fengs hair was slightly disordered from sleep, his eyes a little tired. His manner was unusually languid. Wei Xiao inhaled lightly and couldnt help himself. Im going to die under your body sooner or lat Lu Feng pressed down and blocked his disobedient mouth. There was only the sound of kissing and their eager breathing in the quiet room as they entangled together. Wei Xiaos clothes were a mess. He said, We have to go over the game in a bit. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiaos scalp was numb. Captain His voice trembled. Lu Feng: You mustve played very well in the training match. Its okay not to go over the game. How could Wei Xiao spare any energy to understand what he was saying? He just felt that he was about to die. He Really needed to replenish his kidneys properly! Would eating leeks be useful? An hour had passed by the time he slipped out of his room. Wei Xiao didnt dare to go to the training room and headed gloomily to the dining room instead. He had to get the captain something to eat. He hadnt eaten at noon. Even someone who was made out of iron wouldnt be able to take it if he went on without eating dinner. Wei Xiao was in the midst of rummaging for food when Brother Cai spoke up darkly, What are you doing. He really gave Wei Xiao a scare! Old Bai, youre going to scare me to death. Those who arent thieves wouldnt be afraid of knocking at the door in the middle of the night. Wei Xiao: Bai Cai couldnt hold back anymore. If he let this continue, FTW would be done for! When he thought of this, Brother Cais heart was filled with courage. He spoke boldly, Who are you giving this food to? Wei Xiao: ! Bai Cai could see from Wei Xiaos expression that hed hit the nail on the head. He was both distressed and disgusted, Old Wei, you cant do this. Isnt the captain good? Hes only been gone for a month, yet you Wei Xiao blinked. Bai Cais heart was anxious and worried. I cant turn a blind eye to this. You cant do this to the captain! Wei Xiao was stunned for three seconds. What. Bai Cai spoke directly, Tell me, who is the wild man in your room? Wei Xiao: Bai Cai: I wont cover for you. You cant be careless when it comes to feelings. Wei Xiao finally understood. There were countless mud horses running over his heart as he yelled, Screw your daddy, Bai Cai! Bai Cai: Are you even being f*cking reasonable! Wei Xiao handed him the things hed piled up in his hands. Come with me. Bai Cai: The two of them went upstairs and stepped into Wei Xiaos room. Wei Xiao really didnt want anyone else to see Lu Feng, but If he didnt make things clear to this vegetable, hed fill in his own brain with holes until he was all the way up on the surface of the moon! When he heard the sound of the door opening, Lu Feng casually pulled on Wei Xiaos clothing and came outside. There was a crash. The food in Brother Cais arms fell everywhere. Wei Xiao was expressionless, Do you see now? This is the wild man in my room. xiin: heeeheeeeeee Chapter 149: Lu Feng: Who are you marrying? The 20 year old Bai Cai ushered in the darkest moment of his life! Even in a dream, ten dreams, no, a hundred dreams, he still couldnt have imagined the scene in front of him! Lu Feng was taller than Wei Xiao, and Wei Xiaos clothes were a little short on him, especially around the arms. His long sleeves became a little short, revealing a part of wrist and making his fingers appear even more straight and slender. He put his hand on the doorknob casually, his black hair slightly askew, his eyes at half mast. When he walked through the darkened living room, hed scared Bai Cai with his gaze. Brother Cai had never seen a Close like this in his life. Even more, hed never seen the red marks like cat scratches on his arms, and, and Lu Feng: Wild man? His voice was very textured, and the slow sound echoed around the space as it rang out. Brother Cai was about to be scared into tears. Wei Xiao looked at his miserable appearance and helped him out, The jungler kings man, wild man for short, isnt that so, Brother Bai? Bai Cai: Yes! Thats right! Thats exactly it! His desire for survival exploded, and Bai Cai nodded just like he was pounding garlic. Wei Xiao wanted to laugh, Not worried anymore? Bai Cai startled back to his senses and said quickly, Of, of course. Bah, whats there to be worried about? Um Captain, you continue on, um, you After stammering for a long time, Brother Cai bailed like there was oil smeared on the soles of his feet. I wont disturb you guys anymore! He ran off super fast, like he was being chased by a group of monsters. Wei Xiao laughed at him, Look at how promising you are! How could Bai Cai care about what he was saying? Protecting his life was most important, and he wanted to continue living well in FTW! He ran all the way downstairs. Ning Zhehan and the others had also gone downstairs to eat, and when they saw him like this, they asked, Brother Cai, whats the matter with you? He was pale, and there was sweat dripping down his face, his expression bleak like hed just been played badly. Bai Cai collapsed on the sofa. Over half of his spirit and soul had already flown away. If I die, remember to help me pack up my belongings and send them back home. Little Ning: ??? Brother Cai: Especially that little suitcase worth 66,000. Remember to pack it up well and dont let it get bumped He really gave instructions for all his affairs, no matter how big or trivial. Upstairs, Wei Xiao laughed at Bai Cai relentlessly. Lu Feng bent over to pick up the self-heating hot pot and rice that had fallen to the ground, What happened? Did Bai Cai find out? Wei Xiao was laughing so hard that tears were about to squeeze out. He pulled down his collar and showed Lu Feng the hickies. Brother Cai is too sharp. He thought that Id cheated on you The more he spoke, the funnier he thought it was. In the end, he was laughing so hard he was rocking back and forth. Damn it, when it came to holes in ones brain, who could compare with the Gossip Emperor? He was really worthy of being a man who ran an account that had gathered tens of millions of CP fans, gaining the title of Gossip Emperor by virtue of his small articles. Lu Feng understood the situation. Wei Little Xiao. The alarm bells over Wei Xiaos head rang loudly; this form of address wasnt right! He blinked pitifully at Lu Feng. Captain, dont get me wrong, that was all Bai Cais wishful thinking. Youre the only one in my room. Then, he added a sentence, And the only one in my heart! Lu Feng wasnt coaxed, Then why would Bai Cai doubt you? Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng raised his eyelids and looked at him. Wei Xiao got it. Damn it Bai Cai, youre going to die! He thought about Brother Cais identity. He was Brother Cais number one friend, a very tacit partner, and a good brother who fought side by side with him. There was a sayingCCyour boyfriends brother may know your boyfriend better than you. Bai Cai had precisely that identity! Just like Lu Feng had asked, why would Bai Cai doubt you? If he didnt have any previous history, then why would his fellow brother suspect that he was hiding someone in his room? Wei Xiao couldnt laugh anymore. His brain was filled with hand cut white cabbage. Anyway, if something happened and it couldnt be solved, the first way to deal with it was to act coquettish. Wei Xiao went over and kissed Lu Feng hard. Who knows what that vegetable is thinking? In any case, I only have the captain; theres no space for anyone else in my heart. A smile flashed through Lu Fengs eyes, and he teased him, Mm, youll only encounter love on a street corner. Wei Xiao: !!! Lu Feng sat on the sofa. I wanted to see FTWs results when I got off the plane. Your words were the first thing I heard. Glorys Mic Explosion King had edited an overnight clip, releasing FTWs team chat for the game against TPT. Wei Xiaos encountering love on a street corner had instantly become a golden sentence, the Xiao-Li CP rising up immediately and even overshadowing Li-Star and the twin junglers. In particular, Wei Xiao had broken through Fu Lis calculations and spoken such a wonderful sentence after such a beautiful kill. They didnt care if it was intentional or unintentional, the CP fans loved it anyway! Wei Xiao was crying, I just said it casually It was over, it was over, he was going to have to sleep on the floor. Lu Feng pulled him over by his wrist and seated him on his lap. If I were a woman, I would want to marry Brother Tang right now. Wei Xiaos back stiffened! That was from last time, during FTWs game against 3U. Tang Chens space-time reversal had given him a quadrakill. At the time, hed been too excited, and his mouth had gotten away from him. Oh my god, how could the captain remember all of it! Lu Feng nibbled on his pale earlobe. Who are you marrying? Wei Xiaos waist was sour, and his voice was so soft it was a mess: Lu Feng: I cant hear you. Wei Xiao blushed hard. Captain Lu Fengs lips curved. What. Wei Xiaos clothing shifted as he was caressed. His voice trembled, Dont Lu Feng: Answer. Wei Xiaos chin rested on his shoulder. The tips of his ears were burning, his eyes squeezed close, and his heart thumped hard. There wasnt much he didnt dare to say, Marrying the captain! Lu Feng chuckled out loud. Wei Xiao bit down on his healthy shoulder. Dont, dont do it anymore. Lu Feng didnt intend to let him go. Who did you meet on the street corner? Wei Xiaos scalp was numb. I met you. Lu Feng: And then? Wei Xiao couldnt stand it. Love you, I love you, captain, I only love His entire body was set down flat, and his mouth was kissed. Wei Xiao moaned and wrapped an arm around his neck. Bai Cai had come back up again. After careful consideration, his strong sense of desire told him that he had to make up for it. Even without mentioning the captain firing him out of anger, just the Wei Xiao whod been embarrassed into anger coming to find him to settle accounts with him was more than he could afford! Why had the captain flown back? How was the shoulder treatment going? Could it be that missing another person had become a sickness, and hed flown back to meet the little beast in his spare time? Was this little beast so attractive?! Although Bai Cai had known that the two of them had gotten together, thered been no image in his mind, and hed always felt that it was unrealistic. Now F*ck, it was true love! A 12 hour flight, traveling across half the world, reversing the time difference, just to come back to see Wei Xiao. If this wasnt true love, then there was no real love in the world. Brother Cai, as the Gossip Emperor whod experienced many battles, swore all the way to heaven that hed never read any short articles like this. It was a brain hole that even the CP fans didnt dare to come up with, yet it had happened in reality! Magical. The world was too magical! Bai Cai thought of his own messy thoughts earlier, and his head almost exploded. It was over, it was over. The captain wouldnt have misunderstood him, right? He hadnt tossed Wei Xiaoxiao into a pit, had he? This wouldnt become a stumbling block to their feelings, would it? Brother Cai was really in a panic. He was really afraid that FTW might be destroyed if something happened to the feelings between the two of them. He was just a vegetable. He couldnt afford to bear responsibility for such a heinous crime! What to do Bai Cai thought about it back and forth and came up with a small way to salvage the situation. The captain mustve rushed back overnight, and he probably hadnt had a proper meal. Otherwise, Wei Xiao wouldnt have been looking everywhere for the self-heating hot pot. What was so tasty about fast food? He had to quickly bring up some fresh, hot food to satisfy the captains appetite! So Brother Cai personally cooked four dishes and a soup and brought them upstairs. He met someone on the way there. Yue Wenle: Whats this? Bai Cai was prepared. Wei Xiao isnt feeling well so I made him something to eat. He was setting things up for a cover up. Wei Xiao had spent an hour going to the washroom and a reason had to be found for his disappearance. Bai Cai had said previously that he wouldnt help him cover up, but in fact, he was helping him cover all the holes, even making up excuses for him. His stomachs uncomfortable. He went back to his room to rest. Sending him food now was not unreasonable. Yue Wenle still found a flaw. Can Quiet eat so much food? Bai Cai: Yue Wenle stared at him. Bai Cai brainstormed for a while and felt that he wouldnt be far from a fate where he had to go home and raise pigs if he exposed the fact that the captain had come back. So he steeled himself and said, Im eating with him. Yue Wenle: Oh Fortunately, hed encountered Yue Wenle, who only had potato chips in his eyes and wasnt interested in these four dishes and one soup. If hed met Brother Tang or Little Ning, their next sentence would likely have been, Im coming too! Then Brother Cai would really have ended up dead. The two people in the room were also settling the accounts after the autumn harvest. Wei Xiaos anger had now been completely diverted to a new target. Who cared about Brother Cai? Glorys Mic Explosion King should go die! Hed really sold him out cleanly! He was a person who had a boyfriend; could they stop releasing these ambiguous words! Who wouldve dared to think that the king of irreverent remarks would one day be attacked by his own remarks. Thankfully, he still didnt know what it meant to make love properly. Although, that day wasnt that far off. xiin: White Cabbage would make a very good wife Chapter 150: In fact, I really want to get lost... And hurry to the captains side. Brother Cai had worked hard for a long time. But when he came up with the plates, his heart was actually quite flustered. He wasnt going to interrupt anything, right? That shouldnt be Yeah, not likely! Of course, Bai Cai didnt dare to open the door directly this time. He knocked on the door properly and asked cautiously, Do you want to have dinner? As long as he heard a no, he would get the hell out of there! The door opened with a click. Bai Cai was quite short at 1.75 meters tall. In front of the captain, his height was really insignificant. He sucked in a slight breath, Cap-captain! He could feel the great demon kings pressure even outside the canyon. Brother Cai was so scared! Lu Feng seemed to have just taken a shower. His hair was damp, and there was the scent of bath gel emanating from his body, the scent faintly sweet and citrusy. Lu Feng dropped his gaze and saw the full plates of food. You cooked this? Bai Cai quickly expressed his loyalty, Yes! Lu Feng: Mm. He accepted them, then thanked him. Bai Cai was so nervous he could die. How could he dare ask for thanks? He was just glad that the captain didnt come looking for him to settle his crimes. Then, Ill He was just about to say that he would go downstairs first when Lu Feng stopped him, Have you eaten? Bai Cai: Lu Feng: Theres so many dishes. Wei Xiao cant finish them alone. Bai Cai: Lu Feng: Come in and lets eat together. Bai Cai: !!! Really. If Brother Cai had even a bit of prophetic talent, then he wouldnt have let himself get into such a situation. He was the one who cooked the dishes, prepared the rice, and he was even the one whod brought everything over. However, at this moment, at this table with three people, he was only responsible for eating Soybeans share. Indeed Fresh, painfully hot dog food that choked people up until they wanted to die. Wei Xiao had also taken a shower. Bai Cai didnt want to know why he had to take a shower at this hour. Wei Xiaos expression was filled with dismissal when he came out and saw him. Go back and eat in your own room. Bai Cai wanted to swear, but he also didnt dare to. He was so angry he was practically grunting with anger. Lu Feng: Hes eating with you. Wei Xiao looked at Bai Cai in surprise. You havent eaten yet? Bai Cai couldnt bear it anymore, yet he had to continue to endure. Ive eaten, but I encountered Old Yue on the way. He asked me why I was sending you so many dishes, and I could only say that I was accompanying you to eat. Wei Xiao understood, but not only did he not thank him for the hot meal, he even blamed him, Be careful, dont expose the captains whereabouts. Bai Cai: Was it too early to break off their relationship now! It was already too late. Hed already eaten three or four portions of dog food, to hell with breaking things off. Brother Cai was someone who had experience, and he knew Wei Xiaos character. He was bratty, cocky, acted coquettish, and played around at being obedient; he had all sorts of tricks one after another. But he didnt know that their captain was this kind of captain! Wei Xiao: Brother Cais cooking skills are really good. His braised pork is very fragrant. Bai Cai was quite proud: Are you kidding? This was a genuine Bai Family heirloom, understand? Lu Feng glanced at it, then said, Ill cook it for you when theres a chance. Wei Xiaos eyes grew bright. Captain, you can cook too? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao immediately said, Captain, youre so amazing. Theres nothing you cant do! Your food must be 100 times better than Brother Cais. Bai Cai: ??? Eating Laozis food while stepping on Laozi? Are you human! Lu Feng was satisfied, Not a 100 times, but at least two or three times better. Bai Cai: He got it. It turned out that the captain was jealous. Like hell he got it! What kind of flying vinegar was this! Captain, howd you eat this vinegar?! Did you go all the way to the moon to find it?! As it turned out, Bai Cai wouldve been better off not eating dinner. At the very least, he wouldnt be as stuffed as he felt now. He was so stuffed, he just wanted to drill under the table. There was a training match in the evening. Wei Xiao pretending to be sick for half an hour was bad enough; if he continued to act ill, Chen Feng would definitely come looking for him. Wei Xiao followed Bai Cai to the training room, looking back several times with each step. Bai Cai was worried to death. Do you need to go so far Wei Xiao was also worried. Say, the captain is so good, so will he become an angel and fly away? Bai Cai: Im a f*cking fool for talking to you! There were two training matches with RR in the evening. Wei Xiao was absent-minded throughout the whole process. He took the shadow thief and only knew how to brush out nine light arcs, making Moonlit want to go into seclusion. Money: Quiet, why is your killing aura so heavy? Wei Xiao was bewildered. Is it? Money: My Moon-moons gotten lucky with your nine light arcs three times. Wei Xiao: Oh I didnt notice. Ill take it easy on him next time. Moonlit was so embarrassed he grew angry. Get lost! Wei Xiao was melancholy. Ah, in fact, I really want to get lost And hurry to the captains side. Brother Cai, who could guess his unfinished words, ended up giving Yue Wenle a level three shield after his hand shook. Yue Wenle: ??? Bai Cai was very calm. Daddy loves you. He loved him so much hed given him this god level state that had a 120 second cooldown. A layer of goosebumps broke out over Yue Wenles skin. Theres no need for that. The training match ended at 10 oclock. Reasonably speaking, they still had time to queue for points. Wei Xiao was eager to go back, but he held on after looking at the schedule. He couldnt bail; the tasks that should be completed must be completed. Whats more, the captain must be catching up on his sleep. He should let him rest properly. Wei Xiao and Bai Cai were playing double queue. In order to finish the match quickly, they played very seriously and abused the other side the whole time. After finishing the daily task of going up by 5 points, Wei Xiao let out a breath. You guys work hard. Im going to sleep first. Ning Zhehan, whod been losing all night, was filled with ten thousand points of envy. Goodnight, Brother Xiao. If it was a normal day, Wei Xiao would definitely stay behind to accompany Ning Zhehan to score points, but now? Goodnight! He ran away like a flash of lightning. Bai Cai had been leeching off Wei Xiao to finish his own obligations. Yue Wenle invited him, Double queue? Bai Cais heart was very tired, so tired that he couldnt really breathe. No, Im a little sleepy. It had been a very stressful day. He needed to go take a hot bath and have a good rest. The two of them went out together, but Wei Xiao didnt pay him any attention at all. Bai Cai reminded him, Take it easy. Wei Xiao glanced at him out of the corner of his eye. Eh? Bai Cai was afraid that hed go too wild. Theres still training matches tomorrow. Dont end up unable to get up. Wei Xiao was unwilling to accept this. Who are you looking down on! Unable to get up? Impossible! It was inconvenient for Bai Cai to say too much about it. Goodbye! Wei Little Xiao might not understand moderation, but the captain should understand, right? Brother Cai was really as worried as an old mother over this. As soon as Wei Xiao went back, he saw Lu Feng sitting in front of the computer. Not sleeping? He ran over and kissed him. Lu Feng was still dealing with some work, I was waiting for you. Jet lag was something that should be resisted. Wei Xiao came over to see what he was doing. Eh His eyes lit up. Lu Feng didnt try to hide things from him. He pulled him into his arms directly. Wei Xiao leaned into him, his eyes bright. Is it true? Lu Feng: The test server will go online in three days. Wei Xiao looked at it carefully. His eyes became even brighter as he looked. How exciting! Lu Feng smiled briefly. The doubles game is even more interesting. He scrolled down in the email and showed Wei Xiao the system for the doubles game. Wei Xiao was startled. This This was an internal email. The games competition committee had first sent it to the various club leaders to inform them about the changes ahead of time. They were now halfway through the regular season, and the playoffs were fast approaching. The playoff schedule wasnt very tight. The eight teams that had been shortlisted would play in an eight to four round, followed by the semi finals round, and lastly, the finals. There were only three games on the path to the championship. Although 5v5 was simple, there would also be singles and doubles games in the playoffs. A few years ago, the competition system for the single and doubles competitions had been an elimination system. Going through one game after another had been very time consuming. This year, there had been new changes from the competition committee. The singles competitionCCBrawl mode. The doubles competitionCCSurvival mode. Yes, these two playing styles now had new play modes, which were fresh and exciting. Even without mentioning the singles competition, the doubles competition details that Wei Xiao had seen already made him feel like hed just been zapped by electricity. All the doubles teams from the 16 teams in the China competition zone would be airdropped into one huge map. The jungle creeps had a new layout, there was a new replacement mode for their equipment, and besides their teammate, all the other players on the map would be enemies. The win conditions were simple and direct. As long as the team survived to the end, they would be the final doubles champion! It was fresh, exciting, and held more possibilities than the previous 2v2! And what made it more worthy of appreciation was that it tested a broader set of qualities in the players! Wei Xiaos heart was itchy just from looking at it. Its fortunate that you went to treat your shoulder. If they missed out on such an interesting new competition system, they would regret it for a lifetime. Lu Fengs heart melted. He kissed him on the neck. Thank you. Wei Xiao had been the one whod given him the courage to leave the team and go to North America for treatment; Wei Xiao was the one whod given him the opportunity to leave the team during the regular season without having to worry. Wei Xiao was ticklish. His body turned soft from the kiss. Captain Lu Feng released him. Let me finish replying to the email. Wei Xiao: Okay. Lu Feng pecked him on the lips. Wei Xiao was afraid that he would delay Lu Fengs work. He got up. Ill wait for you in the bedroom. Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao was in a good mood, humming a little tune as he changed into his pajamas. It was at this time that his cell phone beeped. Wei Xiao casually buttoned up a button and looked down at the message. It was two WeChat messages, sent over by Bai Cai. Brother Cai: Forwarded: A little zeros self-care tips. Brother Cai: Forwarded: Loving yourself and loving him more. On the other side, Brother Cai quickly tossed his cell phone to the side after sending over the links. Damn it, he felt that Wei Xiao was still like a total straight man no matter how he thought about it. Although he himself was also so straight that he couldnt possibly be any straighter, the Gossip Emperor had many gay friends who regularly shared all kinds of wonderful knowledge with him. Brother Cai had seen these things too often. Hed used to be afraid that it would burn his eyes and had deleted them directly, but now Bai Cai was being very dedicated for FTWs sake! Wei Xiao looked at the title, his expression confused. What was this? He didnt know that it was the door to a new world. And then Wei Xiao pushed the door open without any preparation at all. F*ck?! Wei Little Xiao, whod thought that hed become a mature man a long time ago, fell into a stunned stupor. Itit was actually like this?! Um, did the captain know? Wei Xiaos body was burning all over. He definitely didnt know! The author has something to say: Cough, cough. xiin: no, little lunatic, the captain definitely knows Chapter 151: Say, why is the captain so handsome? The links Bai Cai had sent over were all about aftercare. Even if he was beaten to death, he wouldnt have expected that these two people who had been so sticky together hadnt actually taken the last step yet. He was worried that Wei Xiao would be too careless and wouldnt know how to take care of himself. Although the captain doted on him, it was better for Bai Cai to dote on him. Brother Cai was mainly afraid that Wei Xiao wouldnt be able to get out of bed afterwards, and it would affect the competition! However, hed overestimated Wei Xiao, and hed underestimated Lu Feng. One of them really didnt know anything. And the other one was really able to hold back until Wei Xiao grew up a bit. With two such immortals, Brother Cais head would be filled with question marks even if he had ten brains! At this moment, the Wei Xiaoxiao, whod accidentally run into the truth, saw the light. No wonder it would hurt. No wonder he wouldnt be able to get out of bed. No wonder they should take it easy. This F*ck, so thats how it could be! Wei Xiao thought about it again and again. He couldnt stay in bed anymore and went out barefoot, poking his head out from the door. Lu Feng thought that hed gotten bored. Ill be done soon. Wei Xiaos eyes were drifting everywhere, and his face felt very hot. Its okay, I came out to get water. There was a water cup beside Lu Fengs right hand. He picked it up and tried it. Come here, the water temperature is just right. Wei Xiao slunk over, picked up the cup, and drank some water He was a little thirsty, but it wasnt physical. It was psychological. His throat felt dry no matter how much water he drank. Lu Feng noticed it, Whats the matter? Wei Xiao shook his head quickly. Nothing! Lu Feng turned and saw the red tips of his ears. His heart shook. He didnt want to reply to the email anymore. He didnt even want to type another word. Lu Feng turned off the computer, got up, and said, Lets go sleep. Theyd talk about everything else tomorrow. Wei Xiao gulped down the water in the cup in one go and nodded. Okay. His heart was so turbulent that he didnt notice that Lu Feng hadnt finished his work. Both of them had already washed up so there was no need to do anything else. They could just get into bed and sleep. Lu Feng had done Wei Xiao many times that day. Reasonably speaking, this kid should be satisfied already, but He poked the tip of his nose and asked, You want it? This was obviously referring to adult matters. Wei Xiaos eyelashes trembled. He clung to Lu Feng and felt all sorts of uneasy. Lu Fengs hand slipped under the quilt and touched him lightly. Wei Xiao buried himself against his chest and spoke in a muffled voice, Captain Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao felt a pleasure that numbed his scalp and spoke to him in a voice that was as small as the buzzing of a mosquito, Do you know what two men can do together Lu Feng: ! Wei Xiao clung to him tightly, as though doing so would help hide his red, flushed body. Just Lu Fengs hand stopped moving. He held onto his waist. How did you learn about this. Wei Xiao couldnt hear the strangeness in his tone and answered frankly, Brother Cai sent me a link. Lu Feng: At this critical moment, there was nobody to rein Wei Little Xiao in. Lu Feng flipped over, turning so that his back was facing him. Wei Xiao: ??? Lu Feng: Sleep. Wei Xiao was confused for a moment. Were they going to sleep like this? He wasnt done yet! Wei Xiao pasted up close. Captain? I Lu Feng interrupted him, Im tired. Wei Xiao: Wei Xiao would be a fool if he still couldnt tell that the captain was angry. But why was he angry? What was the reason for his anger? Wei Xiao was dazed for a moment, then thought about the words hed just said Could it be, maybe, perhaps, the captain had gotten scared?! Wei Xiao put himself into his position and thought about it: It was quite shocking. Hed also been startled when he first saw this and that. The captain didnt know anything. He mustve been shocked to hear him go into such detail. Wei Xiao was very annoyed at himself. Hed been too careless; this kind of thing had to be done step by step. It was much more difficult to accept when the details all came pouring out like a swarm of bees. Wei Xiao hurriedly went up to coax him, Captain. His soft and crisp voice was like a heated marshmallow, sticky and sweet. Lu Feng was silent. Wei Xiao lifted up the quilt and got out of the bed. Lu Feng looked at him out of the corner of his eye. In the next moment, a certain Little Xiao pasted up from the other side and burrowed into his arms. Lu Feng: He squeezed onto his pillow, wrapping Lu Fengs arm around his own body. Wei Xiao blinked at him. Captain~ Lu Fengs Adams apple shifted noticeably. He held back and didnt kiss him, only moved to pull him further into his arms. Sleep. Sleeping on this side might put pressure on Lu Fengs shoulder; Wei Xiao was very careful. Dont be angry. Lu Feng raised up his eyelids to look at him. So, Wei Little Xiao did know that he was angry. Wei Xiao leaned in and pecked him, his coaxing skills almost as good as his nine light arcs. Alright, alright. It was quite effective on Lu Feng. Wei Xiao bit his lip. Kiss. Lu Feng didnt move. Wei Xiao worked at it for a long time, managing only to make his own heart itchy, but still unable to get what he wanted. He could only continue begging for mercy, Captain, I was wrong. Lu Feng looked at him. He didnt need to speak for his meaning to be understood: How were you wrong. Wei Xiao said quickly, In fact, I was also a little shocked when I first saw it. Its really well, dont be scared. We wont do it in the future if you dont want to Lu Feng: Wei Xiao continued to chatter on, Theres no rule that says we have to be like that. Were already very harmonious and comfortable, I Youre the only comfortable one! Lu Feng breathed in lightly and couldnt hold back, You thought I didnt know? Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng pressed him down and pasted his body against his, Hm? Just this single syllable question left Wei Xiaos bones tingling. Cap-captain Lu Feng rolled him over easily, landing fine kisses on his body. Wei Xiao trembled endlessly, his whole body boiling hot. Wu Lu Feng blocked his mouth, and his fingers slid down, pulling more out-of-control shudders out of Wei Xiao. Wei Xiaos heart was pounding in his chest. He couldnt recall what hed just experienced. In fact, they hadnt done it all the way, and it had just been fingers, but Lu Feng leaned over him, Do you know why we dont do it now? Wei Xiao: QAQ! Lu Feng kissed his wet eyelashes, Sleep. Wei Xiao felt some fear after the fact. It really hurt. It already hurt like this with just fingers, and the captain was so, so big. He would definitely die. Wei Xias heart was still palpitating. He couldnt speak for half a beat. Lu Feng was on fire from his teasing, but he couldnt bear to scare him again. He got up. Ill go take a shower. Wei Xiao: After a pause, his brain finally came back online. Captain! Lu Feng stopped and looked at him. Wei Xiaos eyes slid down, staring at that place and swallowing dryly. Have you been enduring it the whole time? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao only remembered the sweetness and not the pain. What came out of his mouth was, Do you want to do it? Lu Feng would die from his teasing sooner or later. Shut up. Wei Xiao understood fully now. Although he was a bit scared, he was still reckless enough. Lets do it, I To hell with going to shower. Lu Feng came back and pressed the other party back down onto the bed. Wei Xiao groaned and moaned. Lu Feng pressed his waist down. Dont move. Wei Xiao felt like hed been shocked with electricity, mm-hmm. Then, the two of them took a bath together. Wei Xiao said, I really can do it. Just now, it had just been legs. Oh, he now knew why it was legs. It turned out that cough Lu Feng looked at him. Do you want to try a cold shower? Wei Xiao shivered. No need, no need. After washing up, it was already 2 oclock in the morning by the time the two of them went back to bed. Wei Xiao was really tired after messing around until this hour. Lu Feng was also a bit tired. Hed been tossing about for a long time on the road, then gotten distracted by Wei Xiaoxiao for a long time. Even an immortal wouldnt be able to bear it. Wei Xiao still refused to give up. He fought with his own eyelids to say, Captain, I can do it. Lu Feng kissed his forehead. No rush. Wei Xiao looked at him. Eh? Lu Feng was really concerned for his sake. There are training matches tomorrow, and a game the day after. Dont make trouble. The regular season was very tiring. Lu Feng, whod gone through several seasons, knew this better than anyone else. Players just wished they had 48 hours a day for training, reviewing the games, individual training, and the dense competition schedule. What was required wasnt just energy; physical strength was also used up. Wei Xiao might not care, but he did. He wouldnt indulge himself at the cost of making Wei Xiao fall sick. He could still hold back if they didnt do it, but once they did it, Lu Feng had no confidence that he could stop after a taste. When the time came Wei Xiao was still naive. It cant be that bad. Look, Im young and healthy, and I can Lu Feng: Wei Xiao opened his eyes wide. F*ck, I might really end up being unable to get out of bed for a week. Lu Feng blocked his mouth and stopped him from speaking further. It was a gradual process. Lu Feng had placed Wei Xiao at the very tip of his heart. He would naturally make the most comprehensive preparations. Wait for me to come back. With Wei Xiao latching onto him like this, he could only give him an answer. Wei Xiao blushed thoroughly. Its really okay. Lu Feng: No. It was a real no. He was leaving tomorrow; how could he rest assured after leaving Wei Xiao behind like that? But no coaxing was as effective as this single sentence: I wont be able to pay attention to treatment after leaving you behind like that. Wei Xiao: ! He settled down and stopped tossing about completely. Theres no rush, theres no rush. Wei Xiao said quickly, Well talk about it after youre back. Not paying attention to treatment was too serious. He couldnt treat such a threat carelessly. Lu Fengs heart felt sweet and soft. He kissed him gently. Be good. They really werent in a hurry. They had a whole lifetime. He cherished him more than anything else. When Lu Feng left, Wei Xiao insisted on seeing him off at the airport. In order to cover up what he was doing, Wei Xiao focused on Bai Cai, Brother Cai, keep me company. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao tossed this difficult task at him. Help me think up a logical reason for the two of us to slip out together. Irritable Brother Cai came online and started cursing, Like hell, what kind of reason would Laozi have? Laozi He was being scolded, but Wei Xiaos expression was melancholic. Hed started missing Lu Feng even before theyd separated. When Bai Cai saw him like this: F*ck! It was true that if one carelessly made friends, they wouldnt encounter good people! Facts proved that Wei Xiao was right to entrust Brother Cai with this task. Brother Cai came up with a good excuse as soon as he opened his mouth, Ive been having stomach problems over the past two days. Im going to go to the hospital to get it checked out. Brother Liu was surprised. Howd that happen! Brother Cai: Its nothing major, Ill just go get some medicine. Brother Liu: Dont take it lightly. Bai Cai: Its fine, my stomach problems arent anything new. Xiang Liu: Ill find someone to go with you. Bai Cai: Cough Wei Xiao just happens to be free. Xiang Liu paused. Bai Cai: He said he wanted to go with me. Xiang Liu: Alright, call me if theres anything. Wei Xiao praised Brother Cai fiercely, Good brother, youre so reliable! Bai Cai: How should he say it? Brother Cai was very happy at the moment when he was praised, and then he wished he could collapse onto the floor of the car. Life was too hard. He didnt want to be a light bulb, but they insisted on hanging him over their heads. He really wanted to be a self-destructing light bulb! The three of them even had a meal together. When they passed by the security check, Wei Xiao blinked pitifully at Lu Feng. Lu Feng waved his hand. Go back. The captains figure disappeared into the security lane, but Wei Xiao remained standing there. Bai Cai still felt a little distressed. It wont be long before the captain returns back to the team. Wei Xiao: Bai Cai: Enough already, you can still call or have video calls when you go back. Long distance relationships werent as bitter in modern society. Wei Xiao remained silent. Bai Cai continued comforting him, Its just a month, in the blink of an eye Wei Xiao finally spoke up, Say, why is the captain so handsome? Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao: That coat is mine. How does the captain look like hes filming a major movie when he wears it? Bai Cai: The author has something to say: You guys are anxious, and Im also in a hurry, but Who told the captain to be a real man? [doge face] xiin: Bai Cais daily tasks C helping promote progress in Lu Feng and Wei Xiaos relationship (1/1) C eating dogfood (1/1) Chapter 152: Wei Xiao, can you stop messing around! Time really passed quickly. Half a month went by in the blink of an eye. Ever since Lu Feng went back, Wei Xiaos state began to drift downward like the setting sun. Yes, instead of improving, it declined. At first, nobody noticed anything. They just felt that Wei Xiao had started to act bratty again. There were a lot of crazy words, and the teams voice chat was cheerful and magical. Every snippet held a collection of crosstalk. Glorys Mic Explosion King simply loved FTW to death. In the past, FTW might have been the most famous team in China and a team who had one of the most valuable players in the world, but Glorys Mic Explosion King had always been reluctant to cut and edit their team chats for the public. The sole reason was because the great demon king was too silent. Other than dry instructions, there was nothing fun happening during their games. Although the majority of fans could scream happily when they heard Closes Mm, but They could just download a segment of it and play it on repeat every day. Why would they need to stalk Glorys Mic Explosion King for that? Now, it was different. Close wasnt there, so Glorys Mic Explosion King had originally thought that FTWs popularity would plummet. Hed thought that he could switch to cutting clips from other teams voice chats, yet as a result Wei Xiao dropped in out of nowhere, and this crosstalk devil instantly became the Mic Explosion Kings new favorite. Just look at this clean and crisp voice with a bit of bad boy wildness. Just look at this character who dared to talk, dared to do, and dared to provoke others. Just look at this trash talk It was too great! Glorys Mic Explosion Kings operation manager really wished he could invite Wei Xiao to dinner in privateCCwork hard, flashy youth! Our traffic levels are all relying on you! Of course, it was fortunate that they didnt really have a chance to invite Wei Xiao out for dinner in private. If they really met over the dinner table, Wei Xiao would really send them into seclusion with his remarks! Why? Because Glorys Mic Explosion King had sold off Wei Xiaos spotless reputation completely! Wei Xiao had to coax his boyfriend until his mouth and tongue were both dry after every single game. It wasnt easy, okay! Wei Xiaos boyfriend could eat flying vinegar from across thousands of miles. Didnt it make Brother Xiao distressed?! To sum it up Glorys Mic Explosion King couldnt be forgiven! Even as the teams voice chat became more and more exciting, the decline in Wei Xiaos state had also been discovered by the majority of the sharp eyed spectators. Speaking of which, its been a long time since Quiet brushed out nine light arcs. Yeah, Ive been stalking several of FTWs recent games, but I never got to see it. What do you mean, nine light arcs? There arent any light arcs at all. Who would dare let out the shadow thief? One of the teams let it out last week, but FTW didnt take it. Do they even need my God Qs shadow thief for games that they can win so easily? This continued until FTWs game against RR, when FTW lost 1:2 to RR. Everyone grew alert! Thats not right, Quiets state has really been a bit spacey recently. Its not that hes spacey, its just hes reverted back to normal? Thats right. Quiet was very abnormal during the fourth and fifth week of the regular season. Especially during that game against TPT, he was simply crazy. Yes, yes, yes, he brushed out countless nine light arcs in that game. That wasnt Quiet, it was Close! It was normal for players to have ups and downs. Fans would help find reasons for it, but haters would just open their mouths and start flaming in the dark. He cant do it anymore, talent without hard work, right? Like I said, a player like Quiet is unstable. The brainless fans are just pushing him up for no reason, but the higher you are, the harder you fall. Lets sit and wait for Quiet to get eliminated. I havent liked that brat for a while now. Hes clearly a newcomer, yet he calls himself a grandmaster and thinks hes above it all. Be a little more polite, cant you? Yes, yes, yes, Sleep God and Moon Gods resumes both look better than his. He doesnt have any achievements, yet his badass acts show up one after another. Hell mess up sooner or later. Close, hurry back. Quickly take back your jungler position! I think Brother Tangs pretty good in the top lane. The haters couldnt be more obvious with the tone of their words. And there were also those who shook their fingers at the sky and dropped a lot of cruel words. Group A is very exciting, FTW and RR now have the same number of points. Well have to see who can hold on until the end. With FTWs current state, RRs position as first in the group is stable! When are they going to start taking bets? Laozi wants to bet! This year, Im going to bet my life savings on RR taking first place in Group A, its 100% going to be RR. Previous poster only has a total of 5 betting coins, and theyre saying theyre betting their life savings. Laozi has 2 million betting coins here. If FTW doesnt take first place in their group, Ill go to their base and throw explosives! To hell with betting coins. Big brothers head is placed right here. If FTW can get first place, everyone can treat my head as a ball and kick it around! Fierce. More like, fierce and dead. Ive lost, Ive lost Wei Xiao just swept a glance over the comments on the internet and moved on. Over the past two years after he fled from FTW, hed taken a major in flaming others while studying to become a teacher in university. Those two years had been the most difficult ones for FTW, and it was also the two years where the haters all got together to concentrate their fire on Close. How could Wei Xiao tolerate it? His Weibo alt accounts name was simple and crudeCCThe Great Demon King Is Your Father. With this ID, Wei Xiao had made use of his god-like hand speed, his score of 148 in logical thinking, his full score in composition, and his massive library of vocabulary as well as his crazy madness that wasnt afraid of anything under the skies to lead the charge at the front of Closes battle fans. It was like leading thousands of troops into battle, and it left the haters all dumbstruck with awe. What kind of hateful words had Brother Xiao not seen before? What kind of trick hadnt he used before? How could the small breeze and tiny waves be worthy of his attention. Compared with those people whod hated on Close back then, these new haters were simply nothing but dregs. Wei Xiao was too lazy to even look at them. He didnt care, but the people around him couldnt help but worry. It was mainly because his state had really gotten worse. The biggest proof of this wasCChis nine light arcs werent working yet again. Chen Feng had specifically sought him out to talk to him about this. Coach Chen was serious and earnest. Dont feel any pressure. Were not weak even without the nine light arcs. Wei Xiao listened obediently. Coach Chen continued comforting him, Our results have been very good for this regular season. There isnt much of a difference between being first or second in the group. Wei Xiao stopped being so well-behaved. That wont do! Chen Feng: Wei Xiao: I promised the captain that wed take first place. Chen Feng said euphemistically, But theres no need to feel too much pressure about it. Wei Xiao said earnestly, Coach, I dont feel any pressure. Chen Feng: At the end of the day, Coach Chen wasnt a counselor nor was he like Teacher Yuan whod read seven or eight psychology books, so He lost the battle. Forget it, hed leave this kind of thing to the professionals. Tomorrow just so happened to be their physiotherapy day, and hed just have their psychological counselor come in to help the four little ones with any emotional problems at the same time. When the counseling was over, Chen Feng received the players reports and had serious doubts about the psychological counselors abilities. That was it? That was it?! Wei Xiaos psychological stateCCExcellent, in capital letters. He was even more excellent than Bai Cai or Tang Chen, who were both supposed to be the most stable. Chen Feng became even more worried. Could it be that Wei Little Xiao had hidden himself that deeply? Was he able to keep it hidden even in front of a senior psychological counselor? Chen Feng hesitated over calling Lu Feng about it: Coax your little lover, hes so stressed that his mentality is about to collapse! However, Chen Feng ultimately didnt make this call. Lu Feng was far away in North America, and peace of mind was the most important thing when it came to treatment. He shouldnt disturb him with this matter. Besides, Wei Xiaos state hadnt yet reached that point. There wasnt much of a difference between FTW taking first place or second place in the group. They would still be able to enter the winners group in the playoffs. Since he couldnt call Lu Feng about it, Chen Feng focused on Bai Cai instead. As Wei Xiaos best friend, Bai Cai may be able to get him to open up his heart. Chen Feng sought out Brother Cai for a private chat, which made Brother Cai incredibly nervous. As FTWs number one zen brother, Bai Cai had almost never entered this little dark roomCCthe private conversation room. He was surprised to be called in by the coach, and Bai Cais legs were a little soft: What was going on? Had his slacker ways of leeching points in the ranking matches been discovered? Or had he been too wasteful lately? It couldnt be because his identity as the Gossip Emperor had been discovered, right?! Brother Cai cowered. Chen Feng tapped on the table, and Bai Cai sat down. Chen Feng sighed. Bai Cai: ! Chen Feng: When you have a chance, try to talk to Wei Xiao and tell him not to put too much pressure on himself. Bai Cai was stunned for a moment. Chen Feng continued, Wei Xiao doesnt have it easy. This regular season has been very tense, and he shouldnt be so nervous now that its about to end. FTW wont fall out of the winners group Chen Feng spoke seriously, starting from the start of the regular season until now. He spoke about each game, each match, and his speech was very emotional. This cub, Wei Xiao, was very good. After holding it together for so long, it was time for him to relax. Chen Feng hoped that he could put down his burdens and enjoy the last few games. Seeing that Bai Cai didnt show any response after hed spoken so much, Chen Feng looked at him. Do you understand? Bai Cai: Chen Feng summarized it, I know that the two of you have a good relationship. Please help advise him. Bai Cais lips were twitching hard enough to fly up to the sky. Chen Feng: Its not a problem, right? Bai Cai was expressionless, No problem. When Bai Cai came out of the little dark room, he just wanted to find a tree hollow and roar into itCCto hell with pressure, to hell with his mentality, to hell with his burdens! That beast was clearly proudly in love and frustrated on the battlefield! Was Wei Xiao under pressure? Had his mentality collapsed? Was he physically and mentally tired out? Bai Cai: Ha ha. All of that was bullshit! That brat felt no pressure, his mentality was too good, and his shoulders felt too light. He was totally floating! Bai Cai sniped at him, Wheres your nine light arcs? How long has it been since you brushed them out?! When it came to this Wei Xiao was worried about it too, Im practicing Bai Cai: So can you do it yet? Wei Xiao sighed, No. Ever since Bai Cai learned about his relationship, hed also understood the mystery behind his nine light arcs. Wei Xiao had brushed it out for the first time when he learned about his captains shoulder. Later, he was able to brush it out because the captain had almost given up on treatment. Now Bai Cai scolded him, Can you f*cking stop messing around! Wei Xiao was very ashamed. Theres good news from the captain every day, I cant help it. The check-up reports from the past two weeks were so beautiful that Wei Xiao wanted to mount them up at the head of his bed. Brother Cai: The final game in the last week was FTW against RR, and they would be fighting over who would win first place in the group for Group A. At the same time, Lu Feng had also gotten approval from the doctor. He was allowed to touch the mouse and log into Glory. His physiotherapy wasnt over yet, but he could try and get a feel for the game again. He hadnt shared this news with Wei Xiao yet when another piece of news sent Close up into the hot search. Glorys big brawl mode would be launched in three days, and the new competition system for the single player competition would also be announced then. The global competition committee sincerely invited 16 star players to participate in the opening match. This stunt that they pulled for the opening kick-off game was very exaggerated. All 16 players were famous god-level players. The former Team of Gods and current up-and-coming stars were all invited. The list of names that was released almost blew up the entire Glory circle. Yan Jiang, Xie He, Kim Sung-hyun, Yuan Ze and Close. Old fans of the Team of Gods cried so hard their eyes were blurred. The rules for this chaotic brawl competition were very interesting. Not only had they invited star players, theyd also selected 20 top anchors from each competition zone, top passer-by kings from the international servers, and even fans whod won a lottery. It would be a 100 person brawl, and the one still standing at the end would be the real king! Chapter 153: The password is7758521 The game officials had done a good job. The new singles competition mode was already online for the test servers, and many players had already experienced it for themselves. Some players praised it, but even more players flamed it. Theyd been kicking up a fuss on the internet for a while now. Wei Xiao had also tried it. He thought that it was pretty good. For those who liked battle, wasnt being able to kill 99 people in one go the happiest thing?! The Glory game designers had constantly been exploring new ways to play over the years. The inherent MOBA gameplay style was enough to retain players, and the development of new talents could also give them a sense of freshness, but in this day and age, when all kinds of games were emerging one after another, making no progress was the same as falling behind. Glorys ten year popularity relied on its continuous innovation and the way that it kept up with the times. Nothing could remain standing still. If nothing changed, then the game would only go downhill. Regardless of how fiercely the old players cursed, Glory still resolutely launched a new mode of play. The 5v5 mode was already very mature. It was difficult to make any big changes to it, but on the other hand, the developers were still feeling their way around the singles and doubles gameplay modes. The 1v1 single player competition was a test of a players individual operation, but the sense of suspense and viewing enjoyment was relatively weak. In particular, Close, this peak level player, had caused this competition style to enter a slump in popularity. Being unable to beat the great demon king caused players to have a lack of confidence when it came to challenging this play mode. The gap between the champion Close and the runner-up Gary was so big. How would others have the confidence to play this mode? After a long period of deliberation, the game officials finally proposed a new mode this year. The canyon became an empty island, 1v1 became a big brawl, and the oversized map with a 100 person melee brawl gave everyone more fighting opportunities. Personal operation, strategic planning, and even palace intrigue could be played out to the fullest on this field. This was no longer a lonely battlefield where one person crushed another, but a huge battle where it was one person against 99! If players wanted to remain standing until the end, not only did they need to rely on their personal skills, but their comprehensive strength and even their luck would be tested here. In a fair competition, adding a small amount of luck would create additional suspense. Good luck didnt necessarily mean winning. Bad luck didnt necessarily mean losing. But luck was another way of showing strength. Although there was a lot of online abuse, and people swore that they wouldnt play this mode even if someone threatened to kill them, the game officials still promoted this mode actively, officially launching it in the week when the regular season for each competition zone was coming to an end. This was making it very clear that they wanted to get it off the ground. The purpose of the official launch in the regular servers was to completely revamp the competition system during the playoffs and give the audience new, stimulating things to watch. The game and the competitions complimented each other. Traffic from the game was related to the popularity of the competition, and the passion inspired by the competition could consolidate the players attachment to the game. So, as soon as a new mode was launched, the game officials would definitely find a way to create a breakthrough in public opinion through the competitive side. This was the first time theyd organized a global all star game outside of the world championships! The 16 invited players were the top peak players in terms of popularity and skill. The 20 top anchors were also big gods who were worth tens of millions. What made the players happy was that the remaining 64 spots would all be given to players! Passerby kings, hardcore fans, little novices, cute newbie girls Anyone who signed up would have a chance to be on the global live broadcast and compete against their favorite competitive player or anchor! With this wave of actions, those whod sworn that they wouldnt support the new mode instantly changed their attitudesCC I wont play the new mode even if you beat me to death! Oh, its so interesting. The official invitation letter was sent directly to FTWs base. Lu Feng was still far away in North America, but the letter had already been received. By the time Wei Xiao woke up, Weibo had already exploded from the news. Brother Cai, whod ended up covered in sweat after being walked by Soybean, gasped for breath, Damn, three people were selected from the China competition zone! Wei Xiao was still browsing through his Weibo. He looked up when he heard the news, Who? Close was a given. Who were the remaining two? Bai Cai read out the names, Asleep and Moonlit. Wei Xiao: Bai Cai coaxed him, Hold it, only one person can be chosen per club. Its not that youre not strong enough! Its just that Close is too strong. Wei Xiao tsked, Fine then. He was willing to accept that his quota had been given to his boyfriend. Then, Wei Xiao saw the names Yuan Ze and Gary appear on the list at the same time. Wei Xiao: ??? Bai Cais brain stalled. Wei Xiao was gloomy. It turns out that Old Dog Yuan and Old G arent from the same team? Bai Cai cleared his throat. About that, Old G was last years singles competition runner up. Wei Xiao, So? Bai Cai: The champion and runner up players would definitely be invited. Wei Xiao: So its not that only one person can be chosen from each club, but that Im not as strong as Old Dog Yuan? Bai Cai was cautious. Thats not what I said. Youre the one who said it. Wei Xiao: He was the one who was choked for words for once. Quiet was still a little far off from qualifying for a quota of this level. Most people in China might know that Quiet was an even more excellent player than Asleep and Moonlit, and some even felt Quiet was the number one player in the China competition zone, after Close. But that was of no use Professional players depended on results. The game officials wouldnt only look at how popular a player was. It wasnt like Quiet was a game anchor. Wei Xiao naturally hadnt achieved any results. This was his first season, and they hadnt even finished the regular season yet. What kind of results could he have? There was no need to mention Close, whod been a champion for four consecutive years, Chinas great demon king. Asleep and Moonlit had also performed brilliantly last season. One of them finished second place in the global doubles and was the champion of the domestic doubles, while the other was the runner up from Chinas 5v5 and singles competition, making them both very qualified. Even if these two people were unable to participate for some reason, there was also Eurostar, Fu Li, and Money. They could bypass God Yi, since support players couldnt go up on their own. For example, Brother Cai. If he really was given a spot, he might kneel down and beg the game official daddies to let him off the hook. Wei Xiao was just messing around with Brother Cai. He understood the score in his heart and knew that he wouldnt be chosen, but There were 64 ordinary players who could participate. Wei Xiao looked at his own alt accountsCC Oh, it was really shameful He had five accounts that were ranked in the national servers. Lu Feng called him. Wei Xiao immediately tossed Bai Cai aside. Captain, will you be able to take part in the kick-off game for the big brawl mode? The effect from the physiotherapy had been getting better day by day over the past two weeks. Lu Feng had already been approved to play one hour of games every day. Lu Feng: If you want to participate, Ill Wei Xiao immediately said, No! I want you to participate! He then added, As long as the doctor allows it. Lu Feng laughed briefly, I can. The readjustment time has now been increased to two hours. Wei Xiao was as happy as could be. Thats great! The new single player system wasnt the same as before. In a 1v1 game, no matter how tense or anxious it was, the game would still be over in 20 to 30 minutes. A fast game could be over in 15 or 16 minutes. The battle royale mode had one hundred people in the same arena, and it took place on a huge map. It would definitely take more time to finish a single game. Although they hadnt started any formal competitions, judging from the data from the test servers, winning the game would take about an hour. Even if professional players were more cautious when playing, one and a half hours would still be enough to finish the game. Now that Lu Feng could play for two hours, he could definitely take part in the competition! Wei Xiao didnt tell Lu Feng about his small plans. The main reason for this was that the chance of winning the lottery was too small. If he won, then his luck was really explosive, and if he didnt win, then it was very normal. If he spoke about it in advance, then having ones hopes dashed would be the worst thing. He chatted with Lu Feng for a while about the singles competition, and then they moved on to discuss Wei Xiaos nine light arcs. Wei Xiao had been worrying about it for many days, and he didnt hide anything from Lu Feng. I dunno The more I want to brush it out, the more I cant brush it out. The principle for nine light arcs was open to the public. As long as the player had the operation level to do it, then theoretically, it could be brushed out at will. But theory was theory. Actually being able to brush it out was something else. This wasnt something that could be perfected with practice, because it was difficult to even get familiar with it without a strong enough opponent. Lu Feng replied, Dont worry. Wait for me to come back and accompany you. Wei Xiao thought the same way. Hurry up, hurry up, theres a lot of things to do together when you come back! Lu Feng paused. Wei Xiao realized that hed hinted at something else and his ears heated. Um, I didnt mean that I want to, um that. Lu Feng: Wei Xiaos throat felt hot. No, no, I want to! After saying that, he wished he could find a spot in the ground to bury himself in. But unexpectedly, his captain chuckled in a low voice, I also want to. Wei Xiao: He was dead. His cause of death was probably that hed been killed off by this deadly sexy voice. After seeing the list, Yuan Ze first went to look for Lu Feng. Can you play? He looked at Lu Fengs shoulder. Lu Feng: Winning against you wont be a problem. Yuan Ze: Recently, he often dreamed about that period three years ago. Could he really be getting old? In the past two months, ever since Lu Feng had come to North America, Yuan Ze had really done his best. Hed come over to mooch from time to timeCCthe hotel restaurant that was $200 per head tasted many times better than the food at the base. Oh, it would be better if it hadnt come mixed with dog food. Hed gotten involved in live broadcasts from time to timeCCseeing the iceberg Close go online to brush out 520 roses and 1314 hearts in person. It wasnt anything to be happy about; it was just inexplicably a bit choking. Hed discuss tactics from time to timeCCL&Ps regular season was quite tense. There were many strong teams in North America, and winning the championship wouldnt be that easy for L&P. After having taken advantage of so much, it was time for Yuan Ze to give back a little. Tomorrow is the opening game. Do you want to come to L&P and get a feel for it? Lu Feng thought about it, Sure. Yuan Ze naturally had his own small abacus in mind. It just so happens that a rookie joined the secondary team. His ice skills are quite accurate. You can let loose and abuse him. Any player whod been abused by the almighty great demon king grew up very quickly. Lu Feng glanced at him. Yuan Ze sold out Old G very neatly. Of course, theres also Gary. Lu Feng: What about you. Yuan Ze: Theres no need for that. Big brother wont take advantage of how you havent played games for two months to bully you. Lu Feng: Oh, then forget it. Yuan Ze: ??? Lu Feng: Logging on to the Korean servers from here is quite smooth. Pro He hadnt finished his sentence when Yuan Ze mentally cursed Kim Sung-hyun for being insidious and sinister, and interjected, Fine, fine, fine, Ill also offer myself up for abuse! The opening game for the singles competition would be held online, and the game would be broadcast live online. After all, there would be players from all over the world. There was no need to have everyone get together just to play a showcase game. Although everyone was scattered, the competition committee from each competition zone would still assess the players environment and arrange referees in order to strive for fairness. The equipment in Lu Fengs hotel obviously didnt meet the required standards, so he would need to borrow L&Ps equipment to play. It was a good idea to get familiar with the equipment in advance. As soon as Lu Feng arrived at L&P, he was welcomed enthusiastically. Especially Old G; if it wasnt for the way that Closes expression was too cold, he wouldve gone up to give him a hug. When they were preparing to start the game, Lu Feng glanced at the time, Im going to open up a live stream. Yuan Ze: ??? Lu Feng: Dont worry, Im only showing it to one person. Yuan Ze: This seemed to be a familiar scene. The studio was opened very quickly, and the password almost blinded Yuan ZeCC7758521. Kiss-kiss me, I love you? Who wouldve dared to think that this was the conduct of the cold-faced great demon king who rejected people from thousands of miles away! xiin: Yuan Zes daily portion of dogfood (1/1) Chapter 154: Captain Yuan, please have some self respect. Yuan Ze wasnt able to hold back. He asked, This password He couldnt read it out loud! Lu Feng: Oh, its an ID that he used before. Yuan Ze: He always had the feeling that he was being too nosy! Soon, the only audience member in the private live broadcast studio appeared. His ID was very arrogant, and there was no attempt at covering up anythingCCFTW.Quiet. Coming to the door with his main account, bold and straightforward. A scrolling comment flew out as soon as he came in. FTW.Quiet: Kiss-kiss you, I love you too. Yuan Ze really hated his own good eyesight. He could see it all clearly, and his teeth instantly felt sour. But what made him even more sour was yet to come, Lu Feng actually replied with a light Mm sound. Wei Xiao immediately brushed out 520 kisses, filling the screen with pink bubbles. God Yuan was scared, he really was. Men in love were too deadly! In particular, when it came to these two, one was openly flirtatious while the other was repressed. It didnt even leave single dogs with a way to live! They spoke in Chinese, their voices low and the content vague. The person with the next best Chinese in L&P was Old G, and since even Old G couldnt understand, then the others didnt even need to be mentioned. The first player to go up was from L&Ps second team, a blond, pale skinned youth named Kenny. When he saw Lu Feng, his eyes grew astonishingly bright. He spoke in broken Chinese, Captain Lu, Ive always been respecting you! Lu Feng: Yuan Ze couldnt listen on for any longer. Lu Feng lived in London for several years. You can speak however you like. Kenny immediately switched languages. His endless adoration continued to pour into Lu Fengs ears. 9PM in North America was 9AM in China. Wei Xiao cuddled Brother Soy and watched the live broadcast from under the quilt. Lu Feng had turned on his microphone, so he could hear what was being said on the other side. Wei Xiao paused briefly and rubbed Soybeans big ears. So the captain used to live in England. No wonder he spoke English with such an authentic accent. On the other side, Kenny was still blowing out rainbow farts. Wei Xiaos thoughts drifted as he listened. Speaking of this, he didnt know anything about the captains family situation. The two of them were in a relationship where they could get married and get a license, but he didnt actually know his family. Um Wei Xiao felt that he hadnt been very responsible. He couldnt be set against the captains parents just because of his own parents. If there was a chance, he should still get to know them. Kenny finally finished gushing and spoke out his final wish, Can you use the shadow thief when we solo? Closes shadow thief was really famous worldwide. Regardless of national boundaries, regardless of race, anyone whod seen his singles games would be shocked. This degree of shock can even be linked up to the individuals Glory ranking. Bronze, silver, and gold rank players: Holy shit, whats with this? Platinum, diamond, and king rank players: Is it even possible for a human to do this? Finally, there were the professional players: Im sorry, Ive disturbed you, Im not worthy. The emotions that surged up at that moment were too complicated. Being unable to even muster up any envy, jealousy, or hatred, probably referred to this feeling. Kenny was a mid-laner, but that didnt stop him from being obsessed with the shadow thief. If he could solo with Closes shadow thief, what else would he be afraid of in the future? No matter what kind of jungler king he came up with, his expression wouldnt change, and his heart would remain steady. CCA c-position who hadnt experienced the nine light arcs personally was one whose life was incomplete. Kenny wanted to have his wish completed even before he joined the starting line-up. However Someone didnt allow it. Wei Xiao understood what hed said and immediately fired off a scrolling comment, Dont use the shadow thief! Kenny couldnt understand this line of Chinese text even though he was standing right up front, but Yuan Ze could naturally read it. Yuan Ze thought to himself: Brat, youre really managing a bit too much! Lu Feng didnt even try to ask him for a reason and agreed, Okay. Yuan Ze: He really hated the damned fact that he understood too much. How happy would it be if he didnt understand Chinese?! Wei Xiao went on to explain, Captain, your shoulder is still in the recovery period. You shouldnt use talents that have such high operational requirements. Especially when it came to the shadow thief. When this talent fell into Lu Fengs hands, only nine light arcs could show up. There were no other possibilities. Nine light arcs really consumed a lot of effort. Wei Xiao believed that Lu Feng could pull it off, but he didnt want him to use it. He should get his feel for the game back step by step. It shouldnt be rushed. Yuan Ze got it when he saw Wei Xiaos scrolling comment and explained it to Kenny. Kennys face was filled with disappointment. Yuan Ze asked darkly, Have you trained up your demonic mage? Marshal was often on the losing side in front of Close, eating losses daily, but it wasnt the same with others. Kenny shivered and settled down. I-I did. Yuan Ze rubbed his chin. Why dont you experience Closes demonic mage, then. Kenny: Okay! The first set of talents for their solo games was decided. For Lu Feng, it didnt matter what he played in a 1v1 game. As a talent kaleidoscope, solo games were simply tailor-made for him. The demonic mage was a fortress type mage that had a relatively low operational requirement. This talent relied on skill accuracy. Each talent had its own balance in Glory. For example, skills. Most of the damage skills that didnt need aiming were very average, had usage limitations, and a low damage cap. Conversely, most of the damage skills that required players to predict and aim had considerable benefits. Either the control time was lengthened or the damage dealt was increased. The damage cap for those skills was definitely much higher than skills that could be operated brainlessly. As a fortress mage, the demonic mage relied heavily on its skills. All four of its skills required manual aiming, and it was actually very difficult to control. So, the demonic mages low maneuverability was only in comparison with talents like the shadow thief or immortal warlock. Compared with other fortress type mages, the demonic mage was very difficult to play. The first skill was an aimed trajectory attack from the left, the second was an attack from the right, the third skill was a curved trajectory attack from both sides, and the ultimate move was six curved attacks. Every skill tested the players control over the trajectory of the skill. If it was aimed accurately, ten magic beams would connect together, causing damage that even a giant shaman with full magic defense gear wouldnt be able to hold up against. If it wasnt aimed accurately Oh, the demonic mage had a nickname. It was also known as the incompetent mage. At the start of the match, Wei Xiao acted like a commentator in the scrolling commentsCC Level six! The demonic mage has its ultimate move now. Its time to see who is demonic and who is incompetent! The scrolling comments were densely packed. Beautiful. Closes left arc hit the enemy, and the right side also connected. Both arcs crossed at the same point, and the damage stacked up! Kennys not bad, his hand speeds pretty good and managed to release all ten magic beams in one second. But, the problem is, how come not even a single one of them touched Close? Yuan Ze, who was standing behind Lu Feng and staring at the screen, It was fortunate that Kenny couldnt read the scrolling comments. Otherwise, to hell with playing solo, he would simply explode on the spot! Yuan Zes lips twitched. He asked Lu Feng, Wont these scrolling comments affect your performance? He felt a little distressed for Kennys sake. Although he was only a child from the secondary team, he was still a promising mid-laner whod been working on his demonic mage for a long time. Yet as a result, he was being knocked about by a former jungler king who hadnt touched the game for nearly two months and was splitting his attention to read the scrolling comments. ABUSE. Written in capital letters. Lu Feng manipulated his heros positioning while replying calmly, It wont. Looking at the accuracy of his skill releases, it really didnt! On the other side, Commentator Wei heard Yuan Zes words and stopped blowing rainbow farts temporarily in order to type, My Captain isnt you and wont get affected. God Yuans teeth itched. Wei Xiaos hand speed was equally fierce when it was used in scrolling comments. Besides, Im talking to my captain, what are you looking at it for? Yuan Ze: This brat! He was just about to open his mouth to retort when he heard Lu Feng say, Captain Yuan, please have some self respect. Dont pay so much attention to other peoples words of love. Yuan Ze: Chapter 155: Words between lovers are all words of love. Yuan Ze refused to accept this, You call these words of love? Wei Xiaos scrolling comments were all filled with commentary, the type of commentary that would come from a die-hard loyal Close fan. Calling them rainbow farts was an insult to rainbow farts. His words traveled across the headset into Wei Xiaos ears, and Wei Xiao typed back quickly, Words between lovers are all words of love. Yuan Ze: Lu Feng struck another blow. Understand? Yuan Ze almost choked to death: To hell with understanding the two of you! On the other side, Gary had just finished his training with killing lane soldiers and leaned over to take a look, What are you guys talking about? Yuan Ze stared at him coolly. Old Gs skin tensed up. He felt a strong desire for survival. My captain isnt peeking! Hes watching it openly! With half-assed Chinese, G only heard something about looking or not looking. Close was at their base soloing with a player from their team. How could there be any need to peek? It was simply He added, He can watch however he wants to, and he can even watch it repeatedly and continuously! Wei Xiao almost doubled over laughing. Captain Yuan, what kind of hobby is that? Yuan Ze: If it werent for the fact that L&P lacked jungler kings, Old G would now be a Dead G! As they chatted idly, Lu Feng easily hammered Kenny until he exploded in the solo game. 20 minutes later, Kenny looked at the Defeat on his screen and felt momentarily lost. So strong. He didnt know how to describe the situation other than with these two words. The skill release had been so accurate that it was like hed used a plug-in, and every hit was at the highest damage point of the trajectory. It wasnt just that Kenny was a squishy talent; even a tank wouldnt be able to handle this kind of damage. Kenny looked up at his captain and muttered quietly, For a moment, I thought that it was God Xie. Yuan Ze sneered. Your God Xies demonic mage was trained up at his hands. Kenny: ! Old Gs ears perked up. Everything about the Team of Gods back then was secret, and anyone who heard about it would be curious. However, Yuan Ze didnt intend to say anything more. He glanced sidelong at VIVI. You go? VIVI was L&Ps starter mid-laner. Hed been eager to give it a try for a while. Coming! Lu Feng asked, Which talent? VIVI: Demonic mage! Lu Feng: Okay. VIVI logged in quickly and entered the room, his heart filled with happiness. The great demon king was really easy to talk to and would play with whichever talent he asked for. It was nothing like the unapproachable distance that his captain had spoken of. Yuan Zes lips twitched from where he was standing behind Lu Feng. He could see clearly that Lu Fengs question was actually directed at Little Lunatic Q. Only after Little Lunatic Q said the demonic mage did Lu Feng answer positively. Captain Yuans heart was bleeding as he looked at his own mid-laners flattered appearance. Why didnt this group of idiots believe him! If Close was easy to deal with, then he, Yuan Ze, was the number one best person in the world! VIVI had been constantly staring at the solo game just now. Closes demonic mage was really an eye opener. Kenny hadnt played against Xie He before. Hed only watched too many of EVE and L&Ps training matches and was familiar with Xie Hes play style. That was why hed said such a thing. VIVI had the same feeling when he watched the game, butwatching was different from experiencing real combat. As a person whod fought against Xie He countless times, VIVI was really qualified to judge if it was actually similar or not! The match started quickly. Watching mid-laners fight against each other was very interesting. Even skirmishes in the lane between mages in 5v5 were major highlights. When they mutually suppressed the lane soldiers, mutually used up the other sides skills, seeing whether or not they were able to lower the other partys health was often the key to victory. VIVI was much stronger than Kenny. It wasnt just that his personal operation was much better, but the maturity of his consciousness, experience, and his mentality when facing a strong enemy. This was what newcomers lacked, and VIVI wasnt short on these things as a veteran player. His trajectory accuracy was very high, and he could accurately predict Closes movements. In the first wave of skill and health exchange, he even managed to suppress Closes health until it was lower than his own. But Close, who was in a slightly weaker position, wasnt anxious at all. Yuan Ze shifted his eyes from the canyon to Lu Fengs face. He was very curiousCC What on earth could shake this mans mentality? Hed been an iceberg even when he was 17 or 18 years old. At 21 years old, the ice had spread down to the depths of his soul. He was so icy that others didnt dare to get close, and it even seemed that hed sealed himself up in ice. Yuan Ze couldnt help but think of three years ago. When theyd gone their separate ways, had Close also been equally expressionless when faced with the empty FTW? A sharp, stabbing pain spread out from his heart. Yuan Ze had a heart-wrenching idea: The 17 year old Little Close had a cold face and a soft heart. The 18 year old Close had had to completely freeze himself up. How could he hold up the fragmented ruins of the team if he wasnt tough enough? At this time, a line of text in the scrolling comments leapt into Yuan Zes eyes: FTW.Quiet: Captain, mess him up! As the scrolling comment floated by, the demonic mage in the canyon lined up the trajectories, started off with two magic beams that intersected at the target, and finally followed up with the ultimate moves six successive beams. Ten magic beams flew out from different angles, the intersection of the arcs landing accurately on VIVI. Ten magic beams intersected, dealing explosive damage. VIVI fell to the ground. Yuan Ze was stunned for a moment. Not because of the immortal level operation in the canyon, but because of the curve at Lu Fengs mouth. It was a very faint curve. People who werent familiar with him might not even notice it. But Yuan Ze saw it. He saw this real smile that came from the bottom of his heart. CCMelted the iceberg, unsealed the soul, bathing it in the brilliant sun. Half a beat later, Yuan Ze smiled as well. A warm feeling grew in his chest as he thought of many things he thought hed forgotten. In that year, the demonic mage had just come out as a new talent. Xie He had been very contemptuous, Its a fortress mage. Im not playing it. As everyone knew, God Xie was a real man. He only cared about assassin mage and was famous as a melee mage. Hiding at the back and just releasing skills? Impossible. He insisted on rushing up and stabbing directly from a close range. Xie He was more like a jungler than a mid-laner. His bloodthirsty spirit that loved slaughter didnt match up with his modest and polite name at all! Unfortunately, as a professional player, he had to fully understand the new talents. At the time, FTWs coaching team had also been aware of the teams shortcomings. Close was a jungler and being murderous was an advantage, but it wasnt as appropriate for the two c-positions, who should strive to preserve their life, to be so desperate and aggressive. So, the coaching team assigned Xie He the task of training with the demonic mage. Xie He: Oh. He turned around and picked up the immortal warlock, using it to kill every demonic mage he encountered until they cried to the heavens and the earth in ranked games. The coaching team was so angry their livers hurt. They gave more specific instructions: Close and Xie He play solo games together. Xie He, you can only use the demonic mage. Xie He: Their coach: Close will use the shadow thief. Yuan Ze commented coolly from the side, Old Xie, how amazing would it be if you could use the incompetent mage to win against Little Close? Xie He instantly ignited a fighting spirit then! Later, in the arena. Xie He took out the demonic mage and used ten accurate trajectories to turn the mage opposite him into a closed up child. After winning the game, Yuan Ze had glanced at his teams silent little jungler and seen a hint of a smile at his lips. It was very light, very faint, but it was real. VIVI tsked, Really strong. He managed to survive for a bit longer than Kenny, dragging the game on for 30 minutes. It was a pity that as the game progressed, the emphasis on skill accuracy increased. This was something where the laymen would only be watching for excitement, while experts saw it as a gateway. People whod never played the game before would only feel this when they watched: Hey, its just aiming. There are trajectory indications on the ground, and the players only had to release the skills. However, the release of the skills had a forward swing, there was a delay for the magic beams, and the other side wasnt a standing target All in all, without careful practice, this talent could only be played with luckCCblind cats encountering dead mice. Yuan Ze comforted VIVI, Its solo, after all. These words were really meant to comfort. When soloing with Lu Feng, one shouldnt think too much of it. As a talent kaleidoscope, killing his opponents with the talents they were good at was very normal. This years singles game revamp was very good; the previous competition system had actually been very unreasonable. For example, in the 1v1 arena BP link, the ban positions applied to entire professions. However, many players focused on one profession, and the occasional talented player would just be good at two major professions. When it came to bug level existences like Lu Feng, he was the only one in the entire Glory circle. He could play any profession apart from the support position. How could anyone target him with the bans? Banning thieves was useless. Warrior, assassin mage, explosive damage marksmen he was well-versed with all of them. There was no way to target him. So, the great demon king had dominated the scene for years. Dont even think of winning against Close in solo. It didnt matter what your profession was. Talent was simply such an unreasonable thing. Changing the single and double competition into a big brawl and survival battle was a good step forward. At least, other factors could come into play to make up for this insurmountable gap in personal operation level. It made the possibility of resistance more feasible. When it was Garys turn, he charged up excitedly. Ill use the shadow thief! Lu Feng couldnt use it, but he wanted to use it. It hadnt been easy to catch this opportunity with Close, and it would be a waste if he didnt practice. Little Lunatic Q, whod been in a more favorable position, was already able to brush out nine light arcs. He wanted to catch up as soon as possible! The most important thing for practicing nine light arcs was a strong opponent. Yuan Ze was strong enough, but when compared with CloseCC Old Gs heartfelt words: I choose Close! Fortunately, Yuan Ze lacked mind reading skills. Otherwise, he wouldve picked up a knife to teach a lesson to this big fool that hed brought up word by word! After playing for an hour, Wei Xiao grew distressed. No rush, rest for a bit first before continuing. Although the captain could play for two hours a day, he should still be more careful when he could. He was only supposed to warm up, not play in some sort of wheel battle. Yuan Ze thought so too. He began, Lets go next door and drink some Before he could finish, he saw Little Lunatic Q complaining on the scrolling comments, Captain Yuan, whats the matter with you? You go to my captains hotel to eat and drink off of him every time, yet when my captain comes to find you, you dont even prepare food and drink for him. Are you even human! Yuan Ze was angered to death. Whether or not Im human may be uncertain, but you definitely arent! While L&P stopped playing for a while, Wei Xiao was actually in a bit of a hurry. It was time! The passerby players registration was open! Wei Xiao needed to quickly go and sign up, but whether or not he could get picked would be up to luck. Eh? Luck! Wei Xiao let go of Brother Soy and went off to find Bai Cai. Bai Cai was in a sleepy daze, What Wei Xiao pulled him into his room. Brother Cai woke up in a flash. Dont mess with me, I dont want to be chopped to death by the captain. Wei Xiao: What are you thinking? Do me a favor. Wei Xiaoxiao explained the whole story, and Brother Cai understood. The corner of his mouth twitched. Youre really Five national server high ranked accounts, Little Lunatic Wei really lived up to his name, badass! Wei Xiao urged him, Hurry up, I believe in your little lucky hands. When it came to things like luck, he naturally had to let FTWs strongest support player, the real God of Luck, Little White Cabbage, come up to the stage. There was no need to elaborate on Brother Cais great achievements. In the winter training camp, he had managed to queue up against whoever Wei Xiao wanted to play with. After that, when Money had done a lucky draw on Weibo for a Porsche, Brother Cai had only forwarded it to help a friend. Yet as a result Everyone knew how that had ended. The entire network had cried with envy. Bai Cai felt a little guilty. What if it doesnt work? You cant blame me. He could tell that Wei Xiao wanted to take part in the opening game for the singles competition. It made sense. It was such a huge gathering of stars; how could Little Lunatic Wei not be drawn to it? It was also a rare formal occasion where he could fight against Close. It would be strange if he didnt want to be a part of it. Wei Xiao was smiling like a fox. I wont blame you, I wont blame you. Bai Cai always had a feeling that he hadnt finished speaking. Wei Xiao patted him on the shoulder. Take it easy, if you dont win the draw, our relationship will come to an end here. Bai Cai: Screw your daddy! As Wei Xiao looked on affectionately, Bai Cais heart thudded, and he signed up all five of his accounts! After it was done, Wei Xiao suddenly froze for a moment. Bai Cai looked at him. What? Wei Xiao: Bai Cai was puzzled. The draw wont be over so quickly, right? The winners shouldnt be picked until two hours later when the sign up form closed. Wei Xiao spoke darkly, Say, with your little lucky hands, will all five of my alt accounts end up picked? Bai Cai: ??? xiin: WX, be careful about what you say Chapter 156.1: The captain said that he really likes it when... Brother Cai was given a fright, and his small face grew pale. That wont happen, right? Laozis luck couldnt be that stinky! Wei Xiao was very happy. It would be great if they all won. Bai Cai: He always had the feeling that the next sentence wouldnt be anything good. Wei Xiao: In any case, the alt accounts arent locked to an ID. When the time comes, everyone in our team can have one, and we can fight in the brawl as a team! Bai Cais lips twitched. Dont take me along. Ill get killed by you guys right after I go in. There was no protection mechanism for teammates in brawl mode. Even if a team went in together, they would lose health when a skill flew over them. It wasnt like the 5v5 arena where teammates couldnt deal damage to each other. If the five of them went in together, Bai Cai had reason to suspect that he would be the first to get killed by his teammates. Wei Xiao: Ill get gold coins for killing you. Big brothers takeover of Sky Island relies on your financial support. The map for the big brawl was called Sky Island. Bai Cai was angered to death. Laozi wont let you have the kill even if I have to turn into a box upon landing or throw myself into the sea Oh, why should Laozi take part in the opening game? F*ck, Little Lunatic Wei was trying to trick Laozi again! And, look at the IDs for these alt accounts! Who would dare use them! The registration deadline was two hours from now, and the results would be announced at the same time. Wei Xiao took a look at the time and felt that it was about time. He drove Bai Cai away. Go then, go then, Im going to continue watching a live stream. Bai Cais ears perked up. Live stream? Wei Xiao showed off, The captains live broadcast room. Only I can enter. Bai Cai: A perfectly good captain had been led astray by the little lunatic just like this! On Lu Fengs side, theyd finished resting, and Gary couldnt wait any more. He was burning with eagerness and wished that they could rush to the canyon for a solo game right then and there. Old G: Come on, come on, lets start! Lu Feng: Wait a moment. Old G: Hm? Is there anything else? Lu Feng: Let me ask for instructions. Old Gs face was filled with confusion. Instructions for what? He turned to look at his captain and discovered that his captain had an expression of having a toothache on his face. Old G was even more confused. Lu Feng didnt explain. He looked at the scrolling comments, then asked, What should I use? Gary answered very quickly, Shadow thief! Lu Feng: Okay, Ill use the death knight. Gary: ??? Wasnt Closes English very good? How come he hadnt understood such a simple term? Its Yuan Ze couldnt look on any longer. He bonked him on the head. Shut up. Old G was innocent. Ying. If only Gs Chinese was just a tiny bit better, then he wouldve been able to recognize the words Wei Xiao had typed in the scrolling comments. Oh If Wei Xiao had used Martian text, Old G wouldve understood a long time ago. Facts proved that Captain Yuan had a lot of foresight. In order to prevent his teammates from fighting over dog food with him, hed calculated well from the first day he taught them Chinese. After hearing that his captain was playing in the arena with L&P, Brother Cai was no longer in such a hurry to go back and sleep. He wanted to watch, too! If this big scene was recorded and released out online, it would bring in explosive traffic, okay?! Brother Cai carefully and euphemistically expressed this idea to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao stared at him. Do you think that FTW is short of that small amount of traffic, or do you think the captain needs it? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Or, do you mean to say that I need it? Brother Cai was sour. Im short, Im short on that traffic, alright?! Damn it, he was dying from envy every day due to these traffic giants! The solo in the canyon began. It could be said that matches between Close and Gary were a fairly common occurrence. Even Brother Cai had seen such matches many times. Prior to this year, whenever FTW wanted to have a training match against a global top team like L&P, they had had to rely on Garys obsession with Close. One solo game in exchange for a 5v5 game. It was painful just thinking back on it. The shadow thief against the death knight. In fact, Gary was very much at a disadvantage when these two talents played solo against each other. In terms of talent restraint, the shadow thief was at a disadvantage against the death knight. Of course, this referred to games between players at the same level. The death knight had a high base defense, and it had a 5% immunity to physical damage. This 5% shouldnt be looked down upon; even a single drop of health could be the key to victory in the canyon. The shadow thief was a talent that dealt physical attacks and didnt deal even the tiniest bit of other types of damage, so it was difficult for it to fight against death knights in the early stages. The death knight also had a way to restrain the shadow thief after it gained the light arc skill. The death knight in its light form could use combo moves to trigger a purification effect, which could eliminate the marks on its body. This was deadly against the shadow thief, since it was a talent spec that needed to use marks to brush up its skills. Not to mention, the death knights heavy form had even higher defense and a forced control skill. If the death knight really charged up into the shadow thiefs face, then the shadow thief could only cry and call for daddy. Back then, Wei Xiao had called out daddy many times. Yes, it was during that time when the two of them went at it for three days and three nights. Bai Cai sighed, Why is Old G so stuck on this? Using the shadow thief in front of the captain is simply seeking humiliation for himself. The zen vegetable couldnt understand it. Wasnt it good to live happily? Why did he have to go looking for abuse? Wei Xiao snorted. Garys smart. Bai Cai couldnt see how Martian G was smart at all. As it turned out, jungler kings were still better at understanding other jungler kings. Old G might be naive on a daily basis, but he was very thoughtful when it came to Glory. Why did he always seek Close out for solo? Why did he always insist on using the shadow thief? Why was he so diligent and unafraid of being abused? It was because his eyes were focused on the nine light arcs! To outsiders, Lu Feng was taking the death knight to bully outsiders, and it looked like he was bullying Old G: Closes original personal level was slightly higher than Garys, and he then used this talent that restrained the other side. Wasnt it obviously just trying to hammer him to death? But in fact, that wasnt it. The death knight was a talent that could stimulate the shadow thiefs nine light arcs. Wei Xiaoxiao was very grateful to L&P. Over the past one and a half months, although Old Dog Yuan had been leeching food and drink on a regular basis, hed also kept Lu Feng company while he was alone in a foreign country. So, when Lu Feng asked him what he should use, hed said the death knight. Lu Feng was very relaxed as he played. He was obviously in training mode. He casually cleared his lane soldiers before level six. As long as the death knight stood there in its heavy form, the shadow thief on the other side would never dare to act arrogantly. The death knight and shadow thief had captured the hearts of many little sisters. One was a tall and majestic demon in armor, while the other was a slender and cool shadow. It was very eye-catching when they were caught in the same shot together. The demons long sword swept over, and the shadow thiefs crimson blade flashed slightly. One side gave off a strong sense of power, and the other side was as fast as a cheetah. The fight that erupted with just one clash made the air in the whole canyon grow heavy! The shadow thief hid himself and tried to attack the death knight from behind. Nothing could be seen from the death knights perspective, but that didnt prevent him from turning back and drawing his blade, his skills sweeping across and accurately landing on the shadow thief. Old G reacted quickly. He took the damage and left a mark, then used his shadow attacks high mobility to attack and move at the same time. Close had started with his heavy form. Many players would feel that the death knights heavy form was too clunky when they used it, but when it came to Close, it was grand and open, filled with power. Wei Xiao had already started boasting and praising in the scrolling comments. Bai Cai was shocked at how quickly he could type on a tablet. At the same time, he wondered, Wont you affect the captains operations like this? This question seemed familiar, but the one asking this time was a teammate, so Wei Xiaos reply was friendlier, The captain said that he really likes it when Im waving flags and cheering for him. Bai Cai: He always had the feeling that he was being too nosy. Facts proved that hed really been too nosy. Wei Xiao looked at him. Bai Cai: What? Wei Xiao said euphemistically, In fact, the captain likes me no matter what I do. Bai Cai: .. Can you be a tiny, tiny, tiny bit less shameless! While talking, Lu Feng and Gary in the canyon had already both reached level six. This was the beginning of the show. Why was the death knight the best talent spec to inspire nine light arcs? Because of restraint. When it came to light arcs, generally speaking, it was still a matter of challenging the limit. One, two, or three light arcs were easy to brush, and four or five light arcs were still doable. Seven light arcs belonged to the level of a normal professional player, and eight light arcs required hard training. Nine light arcs was legendary. Memorizing the series of moves wasnt difficult. What was difficult was how to stack up enough marks and damage using the zero cooldown time of the shadow attack in order to activate nine light arcs. Not only did it depend on hand speed, it also depended on skill hit rate and the players judgement of the current situation. For example, the enemys movements, evading forced control skills, or even calculating the death knights purification skill All in all, it most required a very high concentration level from the player themselves. xiin: Empty Island switched to Sky Island ~ Chapter 156.2: Jealous Wei Little Xiao. Garys personal level was high enough, and what he needed most was that ultimate personal experience. Powerful pressure, scalp-numbing tension, and constant concentration it practically brought him straight into the canyon. Wei Xiao was more than a little sour as he watched Gary enter the right state. This death knight is mine. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao looked at Brother Cai. Bai Cais brain hurt. Yes, yes, yes, its yours. Wei Xiaos sourness continued, But now, hes training other men! Bai Cai: Can you not f*cking act like a complaining bitch! Old G managed to brush out nine light arcs just when the match was almost over. The brilliant light that covered the skies made Wei Xiao so angry he wanted to quit the live broadcast room. Although hed taken the initiative to suggest using the death knight, although he was very grateful to L&P, although It didnt matter! Jealous! He was jealous enough to die! Bai Cai was almost drunk from all the flying vinegar! Wei Xiao didnt send any more scrolling comments. He wrapped his arms around himself and sat there, bullying Bai Cai, Am I being petty? Bai Cai: Laozi might die if he doesnt answer correctly. Do you think Im being petty, too? No, no, no. Shouldnt I be petty? Yes, yes, yes. So you do think Im petty. Bai Cai: Captain, come back quickly and put this little lunatic in his place! Although they were thousands of miles apart, Captain Lu still knew what his Wei Xiaoxiao was thinking. Gary had just shown off his nine light arcs and was so happy that he wanted to jump up three feet high. But in the next second, the death knight changed forms. The demon dismounted, and his bone winged armor transformed, his long blade slicing out and instantly triggering the magic seal that sent the shadow thief into an enchanted state. A dazzling scene appeared. Because the Gary whod just brushed out nine light arcs died in the glow that still enveloped half the canyon. Enchanted stateCC70% of the damage dealt would be released on the attackers side. So, 70% of the damage from Garys nine light arc landed on his own body That damned death knight could rely on its super high defense and 5% physical damage immunity in order to resist the remaining 30% of the damage. Gary was killed. Close was left standing in the canyon with a sliver of his health left. The L&P training room was quiet. Even Yuan Ze was left speechless. VIVI, who was watching the show, Thats possible?! It really was possible The shadow thief wasnt immune to control states when it brushed out nine light arcs. Enchantment was essentially a control skill, but finding the right time to release it was too difficult. First of all, anyone who didnt understand the nine light arcs like the palm of their hands wouldnt be able to judge which fraction of a second that Old G would release the light arcs in. Whats more, those who didnt understand the death knight like the palm of their hands wouldnt be able to silently stack up the magic seals over such a long time. The death knight was a hero that Yuan Ze was very good at. He could do the latter, but wasnt necessarily able to do the former. After all, when it came to nine light arcs Other than Close, who could use it freely, everyone else relied on luck. For Gary, he had used it several times in training matches, but it was too unstable for him to use it on the court. For example, Gary had been able to use the nine light arcs with Closes guidance, but what was the use in that? Would Close guide him during a competition? Oh, he would guide him, lead him into an enchantment and then kill all his teammates! What followed was a stage where the death knight beat up the shadow thief until he exploded. Gary was beaten into crying and whining. Wei Xiao grew happy and instantly asked Brother Cai another life-threatening question, Isnt the captain handsome? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao raised his eyebrows. Not handsome? Bai Cai: F*ck! How could he dare to answer? How could he dare to speak? He didnt even need to look to know that saying he was handsome or saying that he wasnt were both dead ends. Fortunately, Brother Cai had weathered storms before and had already grown up. Your boyfriend is very handsome. Wei Xiao was amused. Not bad, Veggie. Life was really hard for Brother Vegetable! Old G was abused, abused thoroughly all over. He banged the table and roared, This is great! Its still the Close who can make people feel so good it overturns the heavens! Wei Xiao heard this and turned into sugared vinegar that bubbled and grumbled, Old G, dont flirt with my captain! Old G couldnt see it, but Yuan Ze could, Act like a human, Little Lunatic Q. Who wouldve dared to think that the Old Dog Yuan who didnt act like a human in daily life would one day have such feelings. After eating dog food for a whole night (North American time), Yuan Ze needed to work it off, Come on, last game. Lu Fengs hands were eager. Come on. Finally, the highlight of the show that night: Close vs Marshall. Really, how long has it been since Yuan Ze and Lu Feng played solo seriously? Although theyd played against each other during the winter training amp, it couldnt compare with their daily solo games three years ago. When Close had first joined the team, the coach had tossed him to Yuan Ze, who most liked to teach. Yuan Ze was also very suited to training newcomers, especially junglers. The 17 year old Close was already very tall, with excessively delicate features. He didnt look like he was coming to compete in the arena, but rather like a star who had come to shoot an. As the most handsome person in FTW (self-styled), Yuan Ze was unhappy with Closes face. Someone who looked like this must be lacking in skills. Not everyone could be like Yuan Ze who had good looks, was well spoken, and was strong enough to explode the skies. Closes self-introduction had consisted of a single sentence: Hello everyone, Im Close. Yuan Ze was more and more dissatisfied: What are you acting reserved for, little brat. Yuan Ze leaned back against his chair and raised his eyelids to look at him. What do you usually play? Close: Anything. At this time, Yuan Ze thought that he meant that he could play any kind of thief. He really didnt know that this anything covered the 140+ talents in Glory. Yuan Ze sat up slightly and logged into the game. Take the talent youre best at. Come and solo. Close paused. Yuan Ze: Its fine, big brother will take it easy on you. Then, Big Brother Yuan whod let down his guard almost had the tables turned on him. Kim Sung-hyun had still been naive back then. Brother Yuan, didnt you say that you were going to take it easy on the newcomer? Yuan Ze couldnt quite manage his temper and said rather weakly, If I didnt take it easy on him, how would he even have a chance to turn the tables? It had been dangerous for a moment. At this time, Close didnt understand Old Dog Yuans true nature. He asked him very seriously, Can we play another round? Yuan Ze hesitated. Close: ? Yuan Ze: F*ck, how could he be afraid of a newcomer! Come on! Later on, FTW inexplicably started up a tradition of solo games. In fact, Closes win rate wasnt very high. Even without mentioning winning against solo king Yuan Ze, he also lost against Kim Sung-hyun often. But the three who played solo against him were all shocked. Close lost, but it wasnt because he lacked ability. It was due to lack of experience and refining his skills. This was something that could only be accumulated over time, and it was something that he would be able to catch up with as long as he worked hard. As for Close, he was obviously a very hard-working cub. Genius wasnt terrifying. What was terrible was when the genius worked as hard as you. Yuan Zes inner heart: I hate this little jungler! * Old G asked Yuan Ze excitedly, Captain, what are you going to use? Yuan Ze was calm. Not a warrior. Gary was bewildered. Why? Yuan Ze: For fairness, of course. Old G: Closes state is better than before Yuan Ze stared at him. Gary didnt know why, but his heart was still very anxious: Captain, dont be reckless, youll lose! Lu Feng looked over. Not using a warrior? Caring Big Brother Yuan came online. You havent played for over a month. I wont bully you. Lu Feng: Oh, in that case, lets not waste time. Yuan Ze: ??? Lu Feng got up and was really about to leave. Im going back. Yuan Ze was surprised. Are you looking down on Laozis thief? Lu Feng: Yes. Yuan Ze: F*ck This brat was even worse than hed been three years ago! Chapter 157.1: Wei Xiao: Why am I not in North America! In the end, Yuan Ze took the blood warrior. The blood warriors full name was the bloodthirsty warrior, and it looked like a majestic human general. According to the information provided from the Glory expansion film, he was an excellent general whod led thousands of troops to fight in all directions. Later on, he was abandoned by his lord because his achievements had overshadowed his master. His 3000-strong iron cavalry had become scattered souls beneath the assault from 100,000 troops. The general was pierced by thousands of arrows, but before he died, he held up his sword and roared to the sky. His resentment and unwillingness attracted blood demon magic, and the blood of 3000 soldiers all poured into his body. The general was reborn with blood and became a demon. The bloodthirsty warrior and the blood raven thief had grudges and resentment between them. According to the background introduction, the blood thief was the blood warriors adjutant and the only one whod survived the slaughter. The general thought that the adjutant had betrayed him and drained his blood immediately after he resurrected. But the adjutant had died willingly. Before he died, he said, Ive always been waiting for you. Only after the general had washed the palace with blood did he learn that the adjutant hadnt betrayed him. Instead, hed been running around everywhere for his sake in the capital and hadnt given up despite being subjected to abuse and humiliation. Everyone had said that the general was dead, but the adjutant clung to his beliefCCthe god of war would never die and would never fall. Afterwards, the blood warrior divided his blood into two halves and used half of it to revive the adjutant. From then on, a blood thief and blood warrior appeared in the Glory canyon. Lu Feng used the blood raven thief. Yuan Ze: I wont take it easy on you. It could be seen from their background story that the blood warrior could suppress the blood thief. In terms of game balance, just based on solo combat, the blood warrior was indeed more dominant, especially now that the blood thief had suffered a few nerfs from the game planners and had already been left on the bench for a long time. Lu Feng: Bring it. There was no need to talk nonsense, they would determine who was the winner and loser in the canyon. Both talents had blood in their names, and they had the same origins. The core mechanisms for the two talents were very similar, and they both had powerful blood sucking abilities. When the blood thiefs ultimate move blood oath started up, it could quickly recover back to full health from a mere sliver of health. It was like having an extra life. The blood warriors blood sucking ability was continuous, and almost every one of its skills had its own blood sucking and health recovery mechanism. As for the amount, it depended on the operation. Wei Xiao sent out a scrolling comment when he saw this CP pairing, Captain, lets use them together next time in 5V5. I can share my lifeforce with you. Lu Feng still had enough time to reply to him while clearing lane soldiers, Okay. Wei Xiao was happy. If the blood thief and blood warrior were on the same side, they could trigger a small skillCClife sharing. It sounded very awesome, but in fact, it came with quite a few restrictions. It could only be used when both sides had over 60% health at the same time, and it had to be used when they were out of combat. This was more of a symbolic skill than a practical one. It was mainly used to match up with the backstory and give the players a small Easter egg to play with. Wei Xiao watched this solo game very seriously. He didnt even send many scrolling comments. Although Yuan Zes character was questionable, it had to be acknowledged that he was indeed a top class player with strong personal strength. The blood warrior was now a very commonly seen top-laner in the field, and many players had practiced it. However, Yuan Zes understanding of this talent went far beyond others. His skill understanding, micro operations, equipment buying strategy, and even his movements and positioning were all very nuanced. Wei Xiao couldnt help but consider, if he was the one in the canyon, if he was the one controlling the blood thief, would he be able to snatch up any benefits from Yuan Zes hands? The answer was infinitely close to No. Finding a breakthrough in this seamless operation was too difficult. The blood thief was originally already suppressed by its talent disadvantage. If he then encountered such a nuanced blood warrior, he would almost definitely be overwhelmed. Damn! Bai Cai exclaimed. Wei Xiao saw it as well, and his eyes grew as bright as stars. Bai Cai sucked in a breath. The captain is so strong. A wave of conflict had just broken out in the canyon. Yuan Zes blood warrior had just been attacked by the blood thiefs feather transformation. Ravens landed one after another, and he instantly lost half of his health bar! This timing was too amazing. Yuan Ze was very strong. But Close was even stronger! Wei Xiao couldnt even be sure how Lu Feng had seized this opportunity without going back and watching the replay. It wasnt just Wei Xiao. Everyone in L&P held their breath and couldnt even blink. This kind of pinnacle level duel was even more thrilling than watching the global solo competition. Marshal vs Close. The former singles championship against the current holder of three consecutive championships. Who was the strongest Solo King? The match that the whole world was curious about was taking place right in front of their eyes! In the long and narrow canyon, the blood warrior whod lost half its health to the blood raven thief didnt panic. It used its first skill, the blood sting, and pierced through a total of five lane soldiers at an extremely tricky angle. This round of micro operations left everyone stunned. Lu Fengs lips raised slightly. He dodged slightly, avoiding the blood sting that hadnt lost any of its momentum. This blood warrior skill had strong penetration power, but how much it could actually pierce through depended on the players ability. The angle, power, and how it was launched were all crucial factors. There werent very many people who could use the blood sting the way Yuan Ze had, even across the whole of Glory. Those who didnt understand might wonder: what was the meaning behind piercing through the small lane soldiers? It was very meaningful! Just look at Yuan Zes health bar. The way that it had instantly recovered from half health back to full health was enough to explain the power behind this round of operations. Blood sting would absorb the lifeforce of other beings for recovery. The amount of health that could be recovered by hitting one target was very different from hitting six targets! In an instant, the blood warrior and blood thief were back to the same stats theyd been at prior to the confrontation; neither side had lost any health! However, the real battle would only begin after level six, when all their skills were activated. Only then would the winner and loser be determined. Although Yuan Ze and Lu Feng hadnt soloed together for a long time, it was obvious that theyd both paid attention to each other. Theyd both grown infinitely, but only their personal habits remained buried deep in the marrow of their bones. For example Yuan Zes black eyes flashed, and he caught an opportunity: Little Close, dont blame big brother for not taking it easy on you. The blood warrior released a phantom. The phantom and the original body looked identical, and because they could switch positions randomly, others werent able to judge which figure was the real blood warrior. Additionally, the phantom figure was able to share damage, and attacking the enemy would also allow the phantom to restore health. As soon as this skill came out, everyone stared at the blood raven thief. Lu Feng used feather transformation and used the second segment of its movement ability to pull away from the blood warrior. However, Yuan Ze seemed to have seen where he would land ahead of time. Seeing that the blood thief was landing, his figure and the phantom figure switched positions. The blood warriors scarlet sword appeared behind the blood thief. There was a heavy flash of bloody light, a squelch, and the blade ran through the blood thiefs belly. The high-definition mode image was shocking. Blood overflowed, following the long blade like it had a life of its own. The blood thiefs health dropped sharply, and at the same time, the blood warriors entire body was bathed in red light, causing rampant damage. At the moment when the long blade was pulled out, a blood mist rose up suddenly, wrapping around the blood thief completely. This was the blood warriors ultimate move, the blood demons awakening. The awakened blood demon could ignore all damage, and its attack and movement speed were greatly enhanced. The sword moved to create a bloody sword flower, suppressing heavens and earth and rushing towards the blood thief. It was over. There was no doubt about it, the blood thief was going to die! It wasnt only the people in the L&P training room who thought so. Wei Xiao thought so, too. Bai Cai hissed, Old Bandit Yuan lives up to his name. He was really like a dog, but when it came to strength, he was also really strong. Wei Xiao had just been about to open his mouth to speak, but suddenly stopped. Bai Cai saw the same thing he did and was also too surprised to speak. There was no doubting that Yuan Zes operation had been extremely strong. However Close hadnt died. He only had a few dozen HP left, and it was already a critical injury among critical injuries, with his health bar dropping down until it was basically empty. Any light touch, even if the blood demon just touched him slightly, would be enough to make him fall to the ground. But The blood raven thief started up its blood oath skill. The ravens screamed, raven feathers swirled, then accurately wrapped around the blood warrior in front of him. The 0.5 second control effect was enough for Close to make use of feather transformation to pull away. Yuan Ze was stunned briefly. By the time he was able to control the frozen blood warrior, hed already been hit by blood oath! The blood raven thiefs ultimate move had a very terrifying blood sucking rate based on its health volume. The lower Closes health was, the faster the blood sucking speed would be. He was on the verge of being completely empty of health and had activated the maximum blood sucking efficiency! Yuan Ze, whod been at full health, watched as his own health was sucked away by the blood raven feathers. The blood raven adjutants blood oath came from the blood demon generals gift. But at this moment, the blood raven in the canyon devoured its generals entire life! Watching as Yuan Ze was about to be killed instead The blood warrior once again used its phantom, and the phantom figure rushed back to his side. At the critical moment when he had only one last sliver of health left, Yuan Ze shifted positions and broke away from Closes blood oath. This wave of back and forth attacks was extremely breathtaking. Without mentioning the two people in the canyon, just the audience watching outside could already feel their scalps go numb and wished they could log into the game and fight 300 rounds right away. These immortal level moves were too damned stimulating! Wei Xiaos eyes were burning. One moment, hed wanted to go and hammer Old Dog Yuan to death, and in the next moment, hed wanted to solo with the captain. It was simply Ahhhhh, Wei Xiao was super annoyed, Why am I not in North America! That way, he could use the blood thief to fight against the blood warrior, and then use the blood warrior to fight against the blood thief. How could such a wonderful thing in life be so far away from him! Chapter 157.2: Im not on my own. I cant make him worry. After this thrilling escape, Yuan Ze sat up straight. His attitude changed, his previous casual aura disappearing as he became serious. In recent years, he hadnt tossed solo aside despite not participating in the solo competition. Not to mention playing against Kim Sung-hyun and Xie He, even Gary had accompanied him to play countless solo games. Yuan Ze wasnt unfamiliar with it, and he was even stronger than hed been three years ago, but He hadnt been able to gain any benefits from Close, someone who hadnt touched the game for over a month. People would start to slack off after being comfortable all year round. Yuan Ze had been feeling uninterested and bored since one year ago. District champion, global champion hollow achievements had made his spirit relax. What had he been pursuing over these years? Number one in Glory? Strongest top-lane? Global triple championship? No. He was waiting for an opponent, waiting to have a full-blown battle, waiting for the hot-blooded, boiling passion that wanted to burst out of his blood vessels! What he yearned for was this almost-forgotten tension and stimulation, this excitement that made ones scalp go numb! Hed experienced this feeling not long ago during the winter training camp. Wei Xiao had given it to him. Now, Close had brought him even more of a shock. Yuan Ze took a deep breath and became incomparably serious. He wanted to win. He wanted to win this solo game, and he wanted to settle things with Close before the solo competition revamp! It was three years late; he shouldve given him recognition and support a long time ago. The battle grew more and more intense, and everyone tried their best to keep their eyes open out of fear of missing something in this wonderful duel between the two people in the canyon. They exchanged health, pulled even, and pushed up their farm. During the long 20 minutes, neither side got a kill, but they played extremely fiercely. Everyone was conscious of the fact that in this solo game, there was only room for dying once. The match would be over as soon as either side died. The more the game dragged on, the more decisive it became. A 50 second resurrection timer would cut off all their chances of recovering after death. Dying meant losing. This was a real battle! System Announcement: Killing You Is A Matter Of Principle killed International Server Lu. Everyone was stunned when this announcement came out, Yuan Ze included. What was going on? Wei Xiao had seen it clearly. Just now, when Yuan Ze attacked Lu Feng, Lu Feng hadnt moved. He didnt release any skills at all. Wei Xiao sent out a question on the scrolling comments, Did you disconnect? That wasnt right, the live broadcast was still on. How could he have disconnected? And besides, they were sharing the same network. There was no reason for the captain to drop offline while Yuan Ze didnt. Yuan Ze looked at him sidelong. Whats the deal? Lu Feng released his mouse and loosened his shoulders. He said calmly, Times up. Everyone present: ??? Lu Feng: I can only play for two hours a day. Just now, that was the last second. L&P training room: .. In the FTW base, even Bai Cais head was covered in a string of ellipsis. Only Wei Little Xiao had recovered somewhat. F*ck, I forgot about the time! The doctor had said that Lu Feng could only play for two hours a day. Before going to the L&P base, Wei Xiao had told Lu Feng repeatedly that he could only play for two hours and that he had to put his bodys health above everything. Lu Feng had promised him, Okay. It was a seemingly perfunctory word, but hed remembered it from the bottom of his heart. Yuan Zes expression was stunned. You couldnt you just extend for five minutes? Five minutes maximum wouldve been enough for them to determine the winner. This brat Lu Feng rotated his wrists and looked at him. Were different. Yuan Ze: ??? Lu Feng: Im not on my own. I cant make him worry. Yuan Ze: On the other side, Wei Xiaos face heated. He looked at Brother Cai. Did you hear that? Thats my boyfriend, the best one in the whole world. Bai Cai: Being half the world apart didnt hinder Teacher Yuan and Brother Cai from having the same thought: F*ck! Since Close had already spoken, they naturally couldnt continue playing. After all, he wasnt in good health, and nobody could afford to take the blame if something happened. Old G didnt know that this was a mouthful of dog food and was very moved. Close is so responsible. He knows that the whole of FTW is behind him and is taking good care of his body. Yuan Ze had a headache and wanted to ignore G. Gary praised Close for a while, then went to comfort Yuan Ze, Captain, dont be anxious. Well have a showdown when the singles competition starts! Yuan Ze was upset when he thought about it. In the future Damn it, could they solo again later on? The people around them didnt understand, but Lu Feng tossed him a sentence, See you later. Yuan Ze was stunned. See you later. The winner and loser hadnt been determined this time, but there would be countless next times. Yuan Zes heart felt sour. He scolded darkly: Stinky brat. In fact, he understood. He understood what Lu Feng meant. Yuan Ze: Lets go, lets go. Ill take you back to the hotel. Later on, this solo game ended up in Kim Sung-hyuns hands. Kim Sung-hyun hissed when he saw the ending. He gave Yuan Ze a call. Old shit, youre really regressing as you get older. Yuan Ze: Get lost. Kim Sung-hyun lifted his chin, speaking in his strange Chinese that contrasted with his aloof and cold idol level face, Dont think about eating shit all day long. Be a little more promising. After three years, you actually need Lulu to take it easy on you. Dont you feel like youre losing farts? Yuan Ze tsked and hung up the phone. Damn it, of course he knew! Only playing for two hours wasnt a lie, but taking it easy on him wasnt a lie, either. Otherwise, Lu Feng wouldnt have dragged the game on for so long. He wouldve won the game a long time ago. But at the end of the day, they were at L&P. No matter how Lu Feng sniped at him verbally until he couldnt even lift up his head, it was still all done in Chinese. In the canyon, he didnt want Yuan Ze to lose. It hadnt been easy for him to gain a foothold and stand alone in North America, which was filled with strong players. Yuan Zes heart felt very uncomfortable when he thought of these things. Two years together, three years apart, but in the end, he was still being taken care of by this little brat. He really was regressing the more he lived. Wei Xiao coaxed his boyfriend to sleep. Meanwhile, the list of participants for the kick-off brawl game was under a lot of attention. Bai Cai saw the results one step ahead of him. And then Wei Xiao saw it a moment later. And then One had an ashen face that looked like they needed to be sent to the emergency room for rescue, while one jumped three feet high, wishing they could hug Brother Cai and spin him around in circles. Bai Cai: This is damned Wei Xiao: Bad ass, Brother Cai! Big boss Brother Cai, Brother Cais little hands are really lucky! Wei Xiao had five high ranked server accounts. In a moment of carelessness, four of them had actually been selected. What was more exaggerated was that there were only a total of seven spots across the whole China competition zone, but now, four of them were in Wei Xiaos hands. Brother Cai pleaded, Your Majesty, for the sake of my hard work, please dont make me take part in the competition, okay? The opening match for the big brawl mode? He didnt want to go. He would rather die than go! Was that a place where a zen youth would go?! It wasnt! The heroes he was good at were either the priest or the priest. When it came to priest talents, other than being a milk mom, it was a milk dad. If anything else, then it was a medicine pot. In short, there were absolutely no damage skills, and other than healing, there was only more healing. If he was tossed into a big brawl like this, how could he live on? Healing skills couldnt be given to an opponent, and a priest could only deal damage through basic attacks with its light wand. If this was enough to kill people, then Brother Cai would cut off his own head and let others play around with it like a soccer ball. This was why Brother Cai didnt want to participate in the big brawl and wouldnt go even if it meant death. Wasnt he living happily? Why would he go seeking self-humiliation? Emperor Weis dragon heart was pleased and he approved this proposal, Alright. Youre lucky and whatever you say is right. It was already a miracle to have one winning account. Yet theyd actually managed four; Brother Cai was really a big treasure! Bai Cai was relieved. For better or worse, he didnt want to die. Honestly speaking, not wanting to go and send himself to his death in the big brawl was one thing, but Wei Xiaos alt account ID names that he couldnt bear to look directly at was another thing. Going and competing with those IDs over his head? Hed rather smash his own head against the wall and die. Wei Xiao went to the training room excitedly and announced the good news to everyone. There were four spots. Brother Cai wasnt going, and there were just enough remaining spots for everyone else to go and join the big brawl! However, Xiang Liu smashed a whole bucket of icy cold water over his head. The organizers have set restrictions. There cant be more than two people from each team. Wei Xiao was confused. Im not going as a player! He wasnt going to participate with his professional player identity. Why wasnt it allowed! Xiang Liu explained it to him patiently. Wei Xiao: It made a bit of sense. Obviously, the organizers had long anticipated that there would be a possibility where professional players would try to snatch up accounts, so theyd added such restrictions. The number of spots allocated to each competition zone was limited. It was understandable that professional players would want to participate in such a major event. Every club would definitely have their own set of national server accounts, and there were rules in the account selection algorithm that meant that priority would be given to high-ranking IDs. For example, Wei Xiaos five alt accounts. The reason why four of them had won was because on one hand, Brother Cais hands were just really lucky, and on the other hand, these four alt accounts all had very key points. First, they were all high ranked national server accounts. Second, they all peak accounts with differing professions. Third, they hadnt been authenticated with the same identity numbers. So, given how these accounts were in line with the selection standards and adding on Lucky Vegetable, it would actually be stranger if he didnt get selected. Wei Xiao was very disappointed. That means we only have one spot. He was the only one in the entire training room who was disappointed. Ning Zhehan was already waving his flag and cheering, Brother Xiao, you can do it! After seeing the game IDs for those accounts, Yue Wenle also said, You can do it, grandmaster. Brother Cais eyes shifted, and his obsession with money flared up. Since theres three more accounts left, how about we sell them? There must be a lot of teams waiting to jump at this opportunity. For example, one easy target was Money. Everyone: Seriously, just take a look at these game IDs. Would anyone really want to use them!? National server ADCCCClose Has Great Skills. National server mage kingCCClose Is Very Strong. National server warriorCCClose Has Super Endurance. National server junglerCCI Like Close The Most! xiin: heehee these names ???? Chapter 158.1: I have an extra account. Do you want it? Chen Fengs head hurt. Wei Xiao, you What were you thinking, coming up with these IDs?! Of course, Glory had a name change card. It wasnt expensive, and players could change their name for 99 yuan. For professional players, this price was nothing, and they could change their name however they liked. But this time, it was different. Since it was an ID that had been chosen, then it was bound to the account. When the time came, and the game organizers checked things over, the account number and IDs had to match up. They couldnt change anything, so if they wanted to participate in the opening brawl, they could only use these flashy IDs! Wei Xiao was very frank and candid. I was young and ignorant. Young was true. Ignorant F*ck, he probably was quite ignorant. Wei Xiaos national server accounts couldnt be trained up in just a day or two. Even if he had this level of ability, he also had to have the time. After joining the team, his days had all been packed full with tasks. How could he have the time to train up alt accounts? Especially accounts for different professions; if the coaching team learned that he was doing such improper things, they would definitely chase him around the base and make him suffer in person! Wei Xiaos accounts had all been trained up prior to joining the team. A Glory season was very long. Wei Xiao had made great achievements prior to joining the team, and so far, nobody else had been able to break his records. It wasnt clear if this boy was just desperate or very gifted. Of course, this was also reasonable. After all, he was a person whod hammered people across the whole of the China Glory circle. Before joining the team, Wei Xiaoxiao had really been young and ignorantCCat the very least, he hadnt known that he could fall in love with the captain. At the time, hed been a pure and simple Close boaster and fan. Hed used these IDs to antagonize those haters, and had purposely gone up in the rankings so that they could all see that Close was powerful and that Closes super loyal fan was also very strong! As for great skills, very strong, super endurance Nothing was wrong there. Two years ago, the biggest impression that Close had left on Wei Xiao was: His skills were really greatCChe couldnt win against him in solo no matter what! His physical strength was very strongCChe hadnt gotten tired even after playing for 48 hours straight! He had super enduranceCCof course, it had been a whole 48 hours! How could a man be so fierce! These IDs really didnt mean anything else, even if looking at them now it was enough to make someone like Chen Feng, who knew the truth, almost choke to death. Close, what kind of big treasure have you fallen in love with! Wei Xiao, whod just won the lottery, also felt a little guilty. He tossed the blame at Brother Cai. What were you so anxious for? Would you die if you waited for me to use a name change card first before signing up?! Bai Cai felt very wronged. Who the hell told you to pick these IDs! Wei Xiao himself had forgotten about it. After using these IDs for such a long time, he already no longer remembered how to come up with normal game IDs. He sighed. The only relatively normal one didnt make it. The fifth alt accounts game ID was really much more normal in comparisonCCThe Great Demon King Is Your Daddy. Although it was related to Close, at least it wasnt anything dirty! Bai Cai said darkly, Dont worry. Even if you bring these five IDs with you all in one go, people still wont suspect anything. Wei Xiao looked at him. What do you mean? Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Who would go crazy with the truth like you? Wei Xiao clapped his hands. Oh yeah, in fact theyll believe the opposite! Brother Cai: Now that it was mentioned, it seemed that it really was the case. In the whole world, um, be a bit more confident actually, across the whole universe, who the hell else would act like Wei Xiaoxiao Two men whod gotten together yet still dared to use these IDs boldly and openly. As long as someone felt a little bit of interest in the matter, they would feel guilty about it and try to cover it up. Nobody in the whole wide world would believe Wei Xiaos Im greedy for the captain! behavior. Especially when it came to this person who frequently did these kinds of things! Brother Cai had a deep understanding of this, so he was able to remain firm. If even he couldnt believe that Wei Xiao had managed to get the captain, then other people ha-ha. It wasnt that he, as the Gossip Emperor, looked down on them, but rather Fine then, he, the Gossip Emperor, was looking down on them! Wei Xiao was relieved. This relief made him even more damned magnanimous, and even more shameless. If Id known earlier, I wouldve changed like to love. The national server jungler account with the ID I Like Close The Most was made when Wei Xiao simply liked Close, the type of liking that didnt have any extra thoughts. But now Of course, he loved Close the most! Bai Cai choked. Brother Xiao, can we stop messing around?! In any case, to sum it up, Wei Xiao was very natural and magnanimous and didnt feel that these IDs were problematic at all. Because of their past experience, coupled with his unconventional temperament, Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle didnt think in that direction at all. Brother Tang wouldnt think about it, either. Hed been laughing ever since he saw the game IDs, and now, he was still providing a hahahaha background sound for the training room. Chen Feng was flustered. The accounts belong to Wei Xiao. You can decide how to deal with it yourself. He was letting it go and not worrying about it any more. Wei Xiao could do whatever he liked. Fortunately, the event organizers were wise and powerful and had set up the restrictions early. Otherwise, the whole FTW team would be put up like ducks on a shelf, and the scene would be very stimulating. To put it mildly, all the FTW members were fans of the great demon king. To put it more directly, it would become a confirmed fact that all of FTW were licking dogs! The club no longer paid attention to it, but Bai Cai was eager for action. Old Wei, if you trust me, then you can hand it over to me. I can promise to get you a good price, and we can split it 80/20. Wei Xiao glanced at him. 20 for you, 80 for me? Bai Cai: What are you thinking! I was the one who submitted the accounts and made it happen. Of course Im the one who gets 80%! Wei Xiao: Were you the one who trained up the accounts? Bai Cai: Er Brother Cai put up with the pain, Fine, fine, fine, then lets make it 70/30. 70% for me, 30% for you. Wei Xiao was too lazy to pay him any attention. Im not selling them. Brother Cai: Eh Wei Xiao, Were all brother teams. Im going to just give them away! Bai Cai: You might not be short on money, but you can at least let me earn a bit! In any case, one of the accounts would definitely be offered to Money. Captain Mo was rich and was generous, and his wallet was very loose. Captain Mo wouldnt even blink if he gave Bai Cai 10,000 or 20,000. Bai Cai wasnt willing to give up. He followed behind Wei Xiao, wanting to see if there was any tiny loophole he could find opportunities with. Sure enough, the first person Wei Xiao contacted was Money. RR base. Mo Hui was currently worried. Not a single one of our ten accounts were chosen. Theres something fishy about the lottery conditions! The cool and aloof Moonlit was in the midst of ranking and ignored his captain. Money went to find their support player, Ah Ling. Young Ling, is my luck this bad? Ah Ling comforted him. There were hundreds of thousands of applications. The probability of winning is definitely very small. Mo Hui: Didnt they say that the higher the ranking of the account, the greater their chances of success? Ah Ling explained it to him, The organizers must be afraid of having the professional players taking advantage of the situation and making it so that ordinary players dont have a chance, so they restricted certain IPs! Young Ling was really a smart kid. He was even able to come up with something like this. Mo Hui thought it over. Ah Ling: Really, captain. That must be it. Just think about it, our bases IP address is registered. As long as they restrict our IP, we definitely wont be able to win. The game organizers: We didnt do that; we refuse to take the blame for this. Mo Hui sighed, Fine then, it seems that I wont have the chance to compete on the same stage as little Moon-moon. Moonlit shot him a cold look. If you want, I can beat you to pieces right now. Mo Hui smiled like a fox. Domestic violence is wrong. Moonlit: Moon God doubted life on a regular basis: Why were the two most important people in his professional career both so shameless! One of them was the Shameless Mo whod brought him to Glory. The other one was the Outrageous Wei whod let him understand the essence of Glory. How annoying! What he didnt know was that when shameless and outrageous came together, there would be even more bullshit! When Money saw Wei Xiaos WeChat message, hed just been in the midst of sending out red envelopes in the team group chat. Captain Mo had a good habit. He would send out red envelopes when he was in a bad mood, and he would even send out four digit red envelopes continuously. Professional players were always short of money. A small support player like Ah Ling, who wasnt as good at doing business as Bai Cai, normally didnt have many viewers when he opened up his live broadcast. He was still quite greedy for money. Fortunately, his captain often supplemented his income, which was why hed been living so well. After sending out 7000 or 8000, Captain Mo saw Wei Xiaos WeChat message. Captain Mo casually sent over a private red envelope. Wei Xiao: ? Money spoke with his red envelopes, Whats up? Wei Xiao didnt click on the red envelope. What kind of happy thing did Captain Mo encounter? Another red envelope flew over. This one held a crying emoticon: Im in a bad mood. Wei Xiao: Your way of being in a bad mood is really unique. Money sent over another red envelope. The remark this time was: Sending out red packets to make myself happy. It was fortunate that Brother Cai didnt see these chat records. Otherwise, his eyes might have been filled with green, and he might have defected to RR at any minute. Wei Xiao thought about it. I wont disturb you Before he could finish typing, Money had sent over another red envelope, using the remarks on the red envelopes to continue talking: Theres no way to play with little Moon-moon in the competition. Wei Xiao understood. So thats what it was. I was just about to tell you, I have an extra account. Do you want it? Money: ! Wei Xiao continued calmly, Each team can only use two accounts. I scored four, and it would be a waste to throw them away. Mo Hui: !!! Chapter 158.2: The China competition zones Closes heavenly group has come together. F*ck. He cursed out loud at the base. Moonlit didnt even look at him and continued to show off his operations. Ah Lin blinked. Captain? Mo Hui was sour. Quiet scored four accounts! Everyone in the RR training room: . What the hell kind of luck was that! It shouldnt be Bai Cai applying for the lottery again, right?! Wei Xiao gave them the answer, I cant help it. Theres a God Of Wealth on our team, and we scored too many by accident. Mo Hui: . He didnt feel heartache over the Porsche, but he felt heartache over this opportunity to participate in the competition that could only be encountered by luck and couldnt be sought! Wei Xiao gave the other side a bit of time to feel envious, then asked slowly, Want it? Money: Yes! After saying so, he transferred money directly. The string of zeroes in the number was enough to make Brother Cai fly up to the heavens. Wei Xiao: No need. Mo Hui: Its a small fee for your efforts. It was just a small hundred million. Wei Xiao really didnt want it: Firstly, he didnt have much interest in money, and he currently didnt have anywhere to spend it, so even the several million that his captain had given him could only lie there in his account like a corpse; secondly, our Brother Xiao felt a bit guilty. Just based on those game IDs, he was afraid that the relationship between RR and FTW would come to an end if he accepted it. The advantage of transferring money over WeChat was that if the other party didnt accept it, then it would just hang there and look attractive. There was a lot of space for autonomy. But this action made Mo Hui very moved. He praised and boasted Quiet exaggeratedly in the base. This kid is so righteous that he doesnt want anything in return for his good deeds. Moonlit: Money: No wonder Moon-moon likes him so much, hes worth it! Moonlit gave him a look. I. Dont. Like. Him. Mo Hui: Yes, yes, you just like soloing with him. Moonlit had just finished playing a game. He got up to smoke a cigarette and calm himself down. Mo Hui continued praising Wei Xiao to Ah Ling. Ah Ling: Quiet is so righteous. We cant let him down. Mo Hui slapped his thigh. That makes sense! Ill go for a visit to express my thanks! Ah Ling: In fact, hed meant that the captain should play well and take first place. Forget it, there was no chance hed get first place. It was better to go visit and express thanks. Money sent Wei Xiao a message, Ill be right there. Ill come pick up the account myself. Wei Xiao had just been about to send over the account login and password. Money: Dont you have three left? Ill go and pick one. Wei Xiao: Alright then, he couldnt stop him if he was insisting on coming. RRs base and FTWs base were very close. They arrived not long after; after all, they were both set up in the same e-sports park. Mo Hui didnt come on his own. He brought Ah Ling along. The main reason was because hed brought over too many things, and he couldnt carry it all on his own. Yes, Wei Xiao didnt take money, but Captain Mo had a strong sense of propriety and insisted on expressing thanks properly. The other party didnt accept money, but they had to accept gifts that were brought for a visit. Wei Xiao went downstairs. He was stunned for a moment when he saw the dazzling array of high-end ingredients. Mo Hui: An Alaskan king crab and Australian lobster that just came off the airplane today, and this steak thats Bai Cai had followed him downstairs. His eyes shone when he saw the scene. Captain Mo is here? What are you being so polite for Oh damn, this pile of things probably cost more than 20,000. Money really lived up to his name. Wei Xiao said sincerely, Captain Mo, theres no need to be like this Money was also very sincere. Were brother teams. Theres no need to be so polite. Wei Xiao emphasized, Yes, brother teams, we really dont have to be so polite. So please dont topple to the ground and be unable to get back up when you see those game IDs. During their conversation, Bai Cai had already taken all the things Money had brought back to the kitchen. On this side, Wei Xiao finally revealed his own alt accounts. Since he wanted to choose, then it wasnt just a matter of sending an account over. They wanted to take a look at the game IDs. Mo Huis heart was filled with gratitude and expectation when he looked overCC Captain Mo: . Young Ah Ling: . At this time, silence was better than making any sound. One thought surfaced in Moneys heart: Could you return the Alaskan king crab and Australian lobster to me? Laozi wants to go back! Wei Xiao promoted quickly, Hey, IDs are like floating clouds, but gaining experience is the most important thing. Money was in a complicated mood and couldnt speak. Ah Ling swallowed dryly. About this dare I ask whose alt accounts are they? Wei Xiao was willing to own up to the things hed done, Theyre all mine. Ah Ling: Bai Cai tried to smooth things over. Its alright, those who are innocent will remain innocent. Its just a game ID. Can it be compared with this one-in-a-lifetime opportunity? Money & Ah Ling: Honestly speaking, yes, it could! Bai Cai was reluctant to give up the pile of things in the kitchen. You guys were the first ones we thought about. If Captain Mo doesnt want it, then well Money gritted his teeth. Ah Ling didnt even have a chance to persuade him Alright! Damn it, he was shamelessly greedy for the opening game! Close Has Great Skills. Close Is Very Strong. Close Has Super Endurance. Moneys teeth ached badly. He said to Wei Xiao, Didnt you say there were four? It was too difficult to choose from these three. he was curious about the fourth one that Wei Xiao had kept for himself. Wei Xiao cleared his throat, Captain Mo, believe me, these three are quite good. Money didnt believe it. Lets take a look. Wei Xiao must have saved the most normal one for himself. Wei Xial: Alright then. Monks didnt lie; the One Lamp Grandmaster really hadnt lied to him. Money looked at the fourth ID, and his heart felt like ashes, Youre really capable. Compared with I Like Close The Most, the other three were really quite good. In the end, Money took away Close Has Great Skills. The names were all messy in any case. He might as well close his eyes and just pick one. After seeing off Mo Hui, Wei Xiao sighed, Ive really paid too much for our China competition zone. Bai Cai: Paying too much was really true. The China competition zones great, bright image was going to collapse overnight! They hadnt yet become world famous by virtue of gaining a triple championship and had made their debut ahead of time with this heaven shattering craziness! There were still two IDs left. Wei Xiao naturally focused on the two from TPT. This time, only three people had been invited as professional players from the China competition zone. TPT was a little miserable. They didnt have a single spot. It wasnt that Eurostar was a lot worse than Asleep and Moonlit, but that this was really too careless and didnt seem to have an edge. TPT had performed well last year, and theyd also done well during winter training camp this year. However, compared with the publics recognition of Moonlit and Asleep, hed fallen behind. In a situation where there were only three spots, it was reasonable that Eurostar-star wasnt selected. TPT was similar to RR in that theyd had their army completely wiped out in the lottery. Fu Li had already been prepared. Well wait and see. Find a chance to buy an account. Eurostar complained quietly, Captain I could I could not participate. He might end up wrung into a rag in this 100 person brawl. Fu Li looked over. Eurostar: I can go! On the other side, Captain Fu hadnt yet contacted any sellers when Wei Xiao had already come to find him. When Fu Li heard that this brat had won four accounts, he was in a complicated mood. It was a complete repeat of how Money had felt. Eurostar was surprised. Was it Brother Cai? Brother Cais luck is really too good! Wei Xiao was modest. So-so. Brother Cais the most lucky. Fu Li was a smart person. He said directly, I want both accounts. In return, I can share all the data from the opening game with you. Wei Xiao: ! What did it mean to say that smart people harmed themselves with their own smartness? Captain Fu interpreted, Is that okay? Money couldnt impress Wei Xiaoxiao, but Fu Lis data was too attractive! Why were so many teams insisting on participating in the brawl opening game? First of all, this was a global event and the popularity was no less than the global finals. Being able to go and show ones face boded well for their future. Secondly, the global competition was about to start. Being able to play against other players globally would bring them great benefits. Fu Lis bait was too big, and Wei Xiao couldnt help himself. Seriously? Fu Li wasnt clear on how much money Money had given Wei Xiao, but TPT had their own resources. He agreed, Yes. Wei Xiao: I took a screenshot! Fu Li frowned. I wont break my promise. Wei Xiao thought in his heart: Of course you wont break your promise before seeing the IDs. After seeing them Moneys attitude before he left made it clear that he wanted to take all the gifts hed brought back! He could still see the scene clearly in his mind! Wei Xiao confirmed it. Ill provide you with two accounts that can participate in the opening game, and in return, Captain Fu, youll share the data and analysis from the game with FTW. Fu Li: Yes. Wei Xiao: No matter what happens, you cant go back on your word. Fu Li naturally noticed that something wasnt right. Is there something wrong with the accounts? Wei Xiao was calm. Theres no problem with the accounts, they can definitely be used to participate. There was no problem with the accounts, and they could use them to participate in the opening game. Everything else could be figured out later. As the god calculator of Glory, Fu Li who could calculate a thousand, ten thousand things, how could he not include Wei Xiaos crazy operations in his calculations? Fu Li agreed, Okay. Wei Xiao sent over both accounts in one go and included the game organizers official certificate of identification. When he saw these two IDsCC Captain Fu: .. The man whose expression wouldnt change if Mt. Tai collapsed, who wouldnt blink if an elk suddenly appeared by his side: His! Mentality! Had! Collapsed! Eurostar leaned over to take a lookCC He immediately transformed into a tearful state. Captain I dont want Fu Li: Shut up! As a result, the professional players from the China competition zone were all assembled together. Three invited participants: FTW.Close, 3U.Sleep, RR.Moonlit. The four immortals combo: Close Is Very Strong, Close Has Great Skills, Close Has Super Endurance, I Like Close The Most. Dont ask. If you asked, then all they wanted to do was to kill Little Lunatic Wei! The author has something to say: Hahahahahahahahaha xiin: heeheee~ Chapter 159.1: Kill Quiet! Wei Xiao naturally wanted to tell Lu Feng about such good news. In the middle of the night, Wei Xiao had a video call with Lu Feng. Brother Cai is really capable. Four out of the five accounts were picked! Originally, I wanted to surprise you at the opening game, but now Its better to tell you in advance! Hm? Its just that these IDs are a little bit strange. Wei Xiaoxiao, whose facial skin was so thick that it could make city walls feel inferior, was actually a little embarrassed now. I came up with these names a long time ago, and it really doesnt mean that Then, he slowly read out the account IDs one by one. Lu Feng: Wei Xiaos face turned red after reading them out loud. When these IDs were used by others, they were funny and silly. When they were spoken with the soft tone Wei Xiao was currently using, they were ambiguous. Lu Feng sighed lightly, Its from those three days? He really understood Wei Xiao and easily figured out the origin of those IDs. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up. Yes! It was those three days and nights that had haunted him even in his dreams. Wei Xiao clarified for himself, It was really meant literally. At the time, I really thought that you had great skills, were very strong, and had super endurance It was okay when he said it just once, but when he said it a second time, it made Lu Feng glad that it was broad daylight for him right now. Unfortunately, it was the middle of the night where Wei Xiao was. Hed talked until his mouth and tongue were dry, his eyelashes quivering. He was shy, but couldnt keep himself from continuing his reckless behavior, Now Its not the same. Lu Fengs heart was shaken by his flirting. How is it different? Lu Feng set down the document in his hands, his black eyes locking onto him. Wei Xiao felt numb and tingling from his look. Just your skills are even better, your physical strength even better, and your endurance makes my legs hurt Even a person as well-bred as Lu Feng only had one word left in his mind at this time. It wasnt a modal particle, it was a verb. Wei Xiao had managed to talk himself into that state. Captain Lu Feng knew what he was thinking. Go to the bathroom. Wei Xiao gasped softly, Mm. His voice was light and floating. Ever since he learned about this new world, not only did Wei Xiao not cower back, hed also become more enthusiastic. Can it really go in? It will hurt, right? But, Captain, that day, you made me very Shut up. Wei Xiao didnt dare to mess around anymore. He was afraid that he might tease the captain into coming back. What would they do for the big brawl if that happened? After taking a shower, Wei Xiao became even more energetic. Lu Feng looked at the time. Still not sleeping? Wei Xiao was reluctant to hang up the phone, Wait a while. There was still a lingering taste in his voice that made it extra provocative. Lu Feng closed his eyes and changed topics to put out the fire that flared up, Do you want to take first place in the big brawl? In Wei Little Xiaos dictionary, other than Captain, it was all Glory. This topic change was very apt. Of course! Wei Xiao was grinning. Lu Feng: Theres only one first place. Wei Xiao: So, you definitely cant take it easy on me. I want to compete against you! The corners of Lu Fengs lips curved up slightly. Okay. Helping him take first place wasnt spoiling him. What really made Wei Xiao happy was fighting unreservedly, the tense and exciting solo, and competing for first place with his own strength. Wei Xiao was delighted and happy again. Are we bullying people by doing this? Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: Look, regardless of whether you take first place, or I take first place, first place is still ours. We have two chances, but they only have one. When it came to sweet talk, Wei Xiao was really very good at it. But his captain didnt lose out at all, Who told them not to have a boyfriend? Wei Little Xiao instantly flew up to heaven. He was happy enough to explode and called out easily, Captain~ Lu Feng was outwardly fierce but inwardly soft. Sleep. Hug, then. Mm. And kiss. And also What he wanted wasnt important. The important thing was that Wei Xiao wouldnt be able to get out of bed in the future. The next day, the list of participants for the big brawl opening game was published online. Without mentioning the other competition zones, just the China competition zones list of IDs was enough to set the whole network boiling. There was nothing controversial about the three professional players, and there was nothing unexpected about the chosen anchors. It was only the ordinary players whod won the prize who were surprising. It was all What was all this Closes heavenly fanboy group?! Wait, these werent any sort of normal fanboys: Skills, strength, endurance? Are you sure youre not being dirty?! The China competition zone is really a place with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. Where did these little evil spirits come from? Um These IDs, could it be a fangirl group?! Straight men were obviously relatively naive. Are Closes fangirls so strong?! Glory has finally been captured by strange creatures. Soon, some people were shocked and spoke up, Holy shit, I know them! Previous poster, can we have a quiet discussion about this? Immediately after, someone else was also woken up by this reminder. F*ck, its them?! Those who didnt know the truth all asked one after another, What are you talking about? Could it be that these people really are Closes fangirls What are you thinking? Theyre all men! Its not like they cant be men, either The comments under the official blog post exploded, and a large number of people who were familiar with the situation flocked over to comment on these IDs. Do you see that Great Skills one? Hes the top account in the peak rankings for the 8th server! Very Strong is, too. Super Endurance and I Like Close are there as well! Passers-by: Are they so awesome? Thats nothing. Whats really awesome is their fighting power. What do you mean? As Closes strongest fighting fans, they can stand up against thousands of haters all by themselves, wage wars of the mouth against entire groups, and leave everyone rendered speechless by their remarks. Theyre not only strong at flaming haters, each and every one of them can also play at a professional level! Yes, yes, yes, Ive been lucky to run into them before. Theyre very strong. If they were to queue together as a group, they wouldnt be at a disadvantage even against a professional team. After that, countless great achievements from these IDs were all dug up. For example, in 19, when FTWs performance wasnt great and Close was being criticized every day, Great Skills would always rush up to the front lines of the fighting and block thousands of troops with his own strength. As another example, one time when Close was live streaming, he was ambushed by a shameless anchor. Very Strong immediately turned on their anti-ambush mode and beat up the anchor until they went into seclusion. Yet another example, when Closes haters tried to spread malicious disinformation, saying that Close slept with fangirls, Super Endurance gave an analysis that was as fierce as a tiger. Heinstantly pointed out all the haters logical loopholes, and found the original source of the image and the obvious traces of photoshop, causing the hater to have their account banned on the platform. And yet another example Forget it, there was too much material. It was just a mere comment area and couldnt fit it all. The situation had exploded online, but the person who was responsible for causing it was still sleeping deeply. Wei Xiao was a bit tired from last night and slept very well that morning. In his dream, he was even playing solo games with the captain. It was a pity that other people could only stand there in a daze, with dark circles under their eyes. Bai Cai, next door. F*ck? F*ck me! What the f*ck! These three phrases reflected Brother Cais current mood. Bai Cai naturally knew that Wei Xiao was a big, vocal captain fan, but he hadnt expected that he would be vocal enough to create such a shocking scene! Over these two years, Wei Xiao had worked hard at a well-known Normal University, and hed also been shining brilliantly all over the Glory circle. As a Close fan, hed fought at the front lines. As One Lamp Grandmaster, hed crushed others behind the scenes. The jianghu didnt have Wei Xiaos name, but legends of him were everywhere. He really lived up to his name as the One Lamp Grandmaster. Although Bai Cai had been in close contact with Wei Xiao over the past two years, he really didnt know about the things that Closes heavenly fan group had done. Especially after he joined FTW. There were training matches, regular competitions, global competitions Every day was crammed full. How would he find the leisure time to pay attention to these things? His Gossip Emperor focused on professional players, and hed deliberately avoided news about players and fans. Putting professional players together for CP was purely for fun and entertainment. Things were more unclear when fans and players were put together; Brother Cai was actually very clear on this. So, he was also shocked when he first learned of the shocking, immortal things that Wei Xiaos alt accounts had done. If Brother Cais reaction was already like this, then there were others whose expressions were like dead ashes. Money looked at the Close Has Great Skills account that he had on hand, and the corner of his mouth couldnt help twitching. Fu Li and Eurostar looked at the Close Is Very Strong and Close Has Super Endurance in their hands and wanted to go into seclusion right then and there. What was more deadly was that theyd submitted their certification information before the official announcement. Wei Xiaos alt accounts werent bound to identity cards. If they wanted to participate in the opening game, then they had to go through the account verification process. After going through ten hours of ideological struggle, the three of them had finally succumbed to the great temptation of the global opening game and completed their account verification. When submitting the information, Eurostar-star had cried miserably. Fu Li had made two cups of black coffee with goji berries to stabilize his mood. Money had gone crazy in his base. Hed taken away all the cigarettes that Moonlit had hidden and set himself up to be a victim of domestic violence. At this moment, they realized that theyd cried too early, hadnt drunk enough coffee, and had gotten beaten too lightly. If theyd known about these black materials, they wouldnt have certified those accounts even if their life was on the line, okay! To hell with the big brawl global opening game, this was a big brawl for harming their reputations! Money pulled together a group chat that consisted of four people: Himself, Fu Li, Eurostar, Moonlit. Group chat name: Victims Group. Moonlit: Im not. Money: Your cigarettes. Moonlit: When you put it that way, Moonlit really had suffered! Eurostar burst out into tears as soon as he entered the group. His crying face proved that men could also be made out of water. I said I didnt want to participate, I said I didnt want to, I Fu Li was quiet: For the first time in his life, he didnt have a miracle cure. Money had become an expressionless screenshot machine. Piece after piece of black material was shared into the group. There was no need to zoom in; just looking at the headlines was enough to make them dizzy. After sending out dozens of articles, Money said, Any thoughts? Eurostar: Kill Quiet! Chapter 159.2: I should be responsible for the things I do. I cant let them carry this blame. At the end of the day, Fu Li was a cool and wise study god who was famous in the Glory circle. He exhaled gently, Dont panic. Money and Eurostar looked at him together and waited for him to help settle everyone down. Fu Lis thoughts were reasonable. There are 100 people participating in this big brawl, and its a global competition. The competition committee will definitely hold an online competition, and well participate as ordinary players. Its not a big problem. Moonlit stabbed in with a knife. I dont know about you guys, but Mo Hui will definitely expose himself. As famous professional players, they all had their own play styles. Mo Huis style was especially distinctive. Unlike in reality, Money was very stingy in the game. He was famous for eating grass and producing milk, and he was very strong at controlling his farm. His gun thief had very strong personal characteristics. As long as he used it, his die hard fans would instantly figure out his identity. Mo Hui: He couldnt refute it. Hed gone to great lengths to get such a reputation. If he couldnt take the hero he was famous for, then he might as well die! Fu Li came up with his killer move. As long as we dont admit it, then its not us. In any case, there was no direct camera. As long as they gritted their teeth and insisted until the very end, they would have nothing to do with Closes heavenly group. Everyone fell silent. It had to be said that this was the only way. They had already submitted their identity certification, and the organizers had been notified. It was impossible for them not to participate. Ordinary players could be willful, but professional players couldnt embarrass the game officials that way. However, what they feared the most was when the official daddies acted inhuman. After just two short hours, the organizers issued a new itinerary. Everyone believed that this 100 person big brawl would be an online competition. Everyone would just watch the live broadcast, and that would be it. Who couldve known that the officials also knew how to play around? The damned organizers got together and discussed itCCeh, there were huge business opportunities here! Having star players from all over the world gather together at one time was a grand event that hadnt happened before in ten years. The global competition was just 5v5, and a competition involving 10 players was the limit. Now, it was a battle with 100 people! The financial backers had already smashed money into advertising spaces one after another, so it would just be strange if the game competition committee didnt do anything crazy! Tomorrow was the opening game. Gathering everyone together was an unrealistic idea, and they wouldnt be able to find a suitable venue. However They could divide it up by competition zones! Eight competition zones had even been invited, and each competition zone included several star players, several top anchors, and several lucky players. Once it was split up like this, even in the China competition zone where there were relatively more people, it only added up to a dozen or so people. It was completely doable. These eight competition zones were all able to host competitions. If they set up their own venues and put the dozen or so people on stage, the ticket sales wouldnt be a problem, and the traffic would be shocking. Each competition zone was already in the midst of their regular season. As long as they suspended competitions for a day, then a venue could immediately be vacated. The China competition zone was rich and majestic. They considered this wonderful occasion where a gathering of heroes would occur and set up a super sized stadium that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. The scene was no less impressive than that of the global finals. As soon as the ticket channel opened up, the fans rushed over to buy tickets, and over half of them were soon sold. These actions from the game officials were as fierce as a tigers and left the four victims very confused. Money: Didnt you say it was online. Eurostar: Didnt you say that we just wouldnt admit it even if we had to die. Fu Li: The god calculator had really run into trouble now, and consecutive problems were coming up one after another! To make matters worse, the certification information was announced officially. I Like Close The Most @FTW.Quiet. Close Has Great Skills @RR.Money. Close Is Very Strong @TPT. Eurostar. Close Has Super Endurance @TPT.Auroral. When the officials acted inhuman, they really set the example on how to act inhuman! Once the official blog was published, the comments were quickly forwarded to tens of thousands of people. On the hot search rankings, Closes heavenly group made it to the top of the list. The melon seed eating gossipers were all confused. Has Glory finally entered the entertainment industry? Glory fangirls were so amused they were going crazy. No, no, no, this is Magical! A group of people came by to explain things, and the passers-by were as stunned as dogs after they heard about it. Is that for real? Glory fans: This is like something that people wouldnt even dare to write in a novel, right? The passers-by: This is really too much like sheer nonsense! On this day, a colorful and amazing piece of history was recorded in Chinas Glory circle historyCCthe highest level of chasing stars. Of course, there were also those who were calm. Especially the fans of the named players whod put themselves back together after shattering to pieces. They couldnt help but try and find reasons to explain their players behavior. No way! My husband has a lot of money. He must have bought the account. Its definitely not his! Money really wanted to become her husband when he saw this message! My Eurostar My Star-star seems to really adore Close, but Mama wont allow you to know whether any man other than Captain Fu is strong or not! Eurostars tears shot through the skies! Calm down, calm down, this isnt Captain Fus style. Its 100% impossible! Do you remember that story? That 10,000 word essay that broke down the rumor that Close slept with his fangirls Holy shit, that logic, that tone, that calm and wise attitude! And finding the original photo from the vast sea of pictures, and that amazing data analysis! Fu Li: Hed fallen into the Yellow River and couldnt get rid of the fishy smell now! The three Chinese professional players entered seclusion and beat at the walls, but the official daddies were given consecutive pleasant surprises. Who wouldve dared to think that the remaining half of the tickets all sold out in three minutes?! And the broadcast price offered by the major live broadcasting platforms instantly doubled! This was the China competition zones new generation! The revitalization (money making) of the competition zone depended on you all! At last, the person who was responsible for all this woke up. Wei Xiao yawned, rubbed Brother Soys forehead, sent the captain a morning kiss, and then got out of bed to wash up. Brother Cai banged against the door. Wei Xiao, whose mouth was still full of toothpaste bubbles, opened the door, Wha? Bai Cai: Wha? You need to f*cking hurry up and pack up your stuff and run away! Wei Xiao raised his eyebrows. What for? I, Wei Xiao, am right and proper. Whats there to run away for? Bai Cai didnt bother talking nonsense with him and showed him the explosive information from online. Wei Xiao: Hed only just had a night of sleep. How come the world had turned upside down?! Wei Xiao rinsed out his mouth and came back out to read it over carefully. Once he started going through it, he noticed something, Why is nobody talking about me? For better or worse, his name was I Like Close The Most. Why hadnt he gone up onto the hot search?! Bai Cai rolled his eyes, Who the hell doesnt know that youre a crazy Close boaster?! So, it wasnt surprising anymore. Wei Xiao thought about it. Fine. He continued looking and felt quite distressed. Captain Fu and Captain Mo are quite miserable. Eurostar could be overlooked; in any case he was known for getting emotional, and it didnt matter whether he collapsed or not. Bai Cai looked it over again and still found it shocking. You should look out for yourself. I feel that theyre on the way over to kill you. Wei Xiao stood up abruptly. No way, I cant just sit back and ignore this. Bai Cai: Ah? Wei Xiao turned on his computer, his slender fingers skimming over the keyboard as he logged in. Bai Cai got up and came over. What are you doing? Wei Xiao opened up his Weibo and said solemnly, I should be responsible for the things I do. I cant let them carry this blame. Bai Cai: ??? Then, he personally watched the amazing hand speed of Closes heavenly team. In the blink of an eye, a statement was made. Even before Bai Cai could say anything, Wei Xiao had already clicked on the send button. FTW.Quiet: Heres the thing, I Like Close The Most @FTW.Quiet, Close Has Great Skills @RR.Money, Close Is Very Strong @TPT.Eurostar, Close Has Super Endurance @TPT.Auroral, these four accounts are all alt accounts of mine. In order to increase my chances of winning the lottery, I entrusted @FTW.God Of Wealth to help me sign up. Who couldve known that Brother Cais luck would be so good that he would hit the lottery with all four accounts in one go? According to the game organizer rules, each team can only send two players to participate, so I It had to be said that Wei Little Xiao was a real man who took responsibility. He told the entire truth without leaving anything vague. The heavenly team victims who saw this all felt so moved that they couldnt speakCC Little Lunatic Wei, righteous! However Q baby, be good. Mama knows that youre righteous, but how can so many national server accounts all belong to you? Quiet, you should edit your drafts even when youre boasting. Are you so amazing that those four accounts are all yours? And theyre also peak ranking accounts for each occupation? Do you think that youre some sort of all-rounder king? Daily joke. FTWs Quiet has exaggerated all the way up to the skies again. Was it surprising? Was it shocking? The truth was right in front of them, but the whole network chose not to believe it. Money, Eurostar & Fu Li: Wei Xiao: I tried my best. The author has something to say: Cough Chapter 160.1: Who the hell is friends with you! The haters ridiculed Wei Xiao for trying too hard, but his fans were naturally more protective. Before Quiets debut, wasnt he the One Lamp Grandmaster? Isnt the man who hammered everyone in the Glory circle as an all-rounder king? Hes more like a farting king. Have you seen him use any profession other than the thief? Back then, the grandmaster was a hero who existed behind the scenes. He didnt live broadcast when he trained with professional players, so naturally, nobody knew about his achievements. Fans were unconvinced. If he can only use thieves, then how come so many top players have been completely won over by him? Haters: Whos won over? Dont paste gold on your own faces. Great. When the fans and haters started fighting, the topic went even more off track. Wei Xiao glanced at it and said to Bai Cai, Their combat effectiveness isnt high enough. If it was me, Id retaliate until the haters instantly closed up their mics and shut up. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao lamented, Forget it, forget it, Im the captains exclusive fan. Nobody else is worth me getting on stage for. Including myself. Bai Cai inexplicably choked on a mouthful of dog food. This matter could be clarified further by releasing the chat records. There were WeChat message records between him and Money, and him and Fu Li, and he even had a screenshot of his chat records with Fu Li because hed been afraid that hed go back on his word. But it didnt make much difference. Everyone was just taking stabs in the dark and just wanted to join in on the fun. They would believe whatever they were willing to believe. If the chat records were released, then they could also say that it just had been photoshopped. After all, this kind of thing it was too easy to fake. Additionally, the whole network was having fun with it, and taking it too seriously would make people feel that something strange was going on. Wei Xiao was quite cautious when it came to these things. He didnt mind the whole internet treating him as a die-hard Close fan, but he couldnt risk exposing his relationship with the captain. The consequences were unimaginable. The heavenly team victims pulled Wei Xiao into the group chat. As soon as Wei Xiao looked at the group name, Eurostar: QAQ, QWQ, QYQ, QUQ Wei Xiao could be regarded as having met someone who was able to cry more than himself, Youre about to cover up the whole group. Eurostar: My illustrious name! Wei Xiao knew him well and also understood the quirks of his character. What kind of reputation do you have Money spoke darkly, Then what about me and Old Fu? Eurostar didnt have much of a reputation as an idol, but the two of them had two tons of it. Wei Xiao cleared his throat. Im sorry, I can only be sympathetic but have no ability to help. What else could be done? Hed already issued a statement and clarified the matter, but the audience just wanted to kick up a fuss. There wasnt anything he could do. The reason why Money had pulled him into the group was also because hed made a statement. Little Lunatic Wei had been righteous and benevolent, and they could only swallow this injustice raw. But Wei Xiao was good at mobilizing emotions. Well then, lets turn grief and anger into strength, rush into the big brawl, and overturn the world! Make Closes name known everywhere, how wonderful. These words were very useful. The three of them were inspired. Since things had already developed to this point, there was nothing they could do to recover their reputations. All they could do was fight and make a big splash in the brawl. Theyd already lost face. If their strength was then ridiculed as well, how would they continue in the Glory circle in the future? Wei Xiao added, Im also to blame for this matter. At the end of the day, I was the one who got you into this mess. The three victims: So you do f*cking know its your fault! Wei Xiao was frank. So please be sure not to show any mercy. Wei Xiao sent over a hehe smiling emoticon with the words, Requesting abuse in the big brawl! Money, Eurostar & Fu Li: In the next second, Wei Xiao was kicked out of the group. This was the victims group. Dont bring the war over here! In the blink of an eye, the opening game for the big brawl was about to begin. Since it was being held across different competition zones, arranging a good time for it was a little difficult. After all, the time difference between each competition zone and each continent was quite messy. The organizers tried their best to arrange for a good time and finally settled on a relatively fair time. The time theyd selected was 10PM for China. Wei Xiao was recently involved in a long distance international relationship and understood the time difference very clearly. He was delighted that it would be 10AM over in America. In any case, the captain woke up early. He just needed to arrive at the venue by 9:30AM. What Wei Xiao regretted was, Captain, I cant go and watch your live broadcast. Lu Feng: Well watch the replay together tomorrow. Wei Xiaos eyes curved with his smile. Okay! These days, he and Lu Feng would do game replays over the phone. Although it wasnt as comfortable as sitting together, it was still good to hear Lu Fengs voice. On FTWs side, only Wei Xiao was participating in the competition. As a player, he had invitation tickets and could bring three people with him. Chen Feng asked around. Brother Cai covered his stomach and said, My stomach feels uncomfortable. I wont go. Xiang Liu was worried. How come you always feel uncomfortable recently? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao saw through his intentions at a glance. He moved his mouth: Dont you know how to change excuses when you pretend to be ill?! Bai Cai was afraid that hed be taken to the hospital and quickly patched up his excuse, Its not serious. Im just afraid that Ill want to use the toilet on the way there. Seeing that this topic was deviating, Wei Xiao helped him out, He probably wants to sleep in. Theres no need to bring him along. Bai Cai: Thanks a lot! In any case, the invitation tickets were limited, so it was okay if Brother Cai didnt want to go. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were waiting for the chance. Brother Tang waved his hand. Im not going, either. Old Feng, you take them. Chen Feng was definitely going. After all, he was the coach, and it was his responsibility to watch the game. All right. So the four of them got into the van and went to the stadium. On the way, Wei Xiao took a look at Weibo. Sure enough The Gossip Emperor had sent out a Weibo message, Tonight at 10PM. Be there or be square. Bai Cai was a doggy thing who wanted to stay at home so that he could open up his live stream. It was such a big event. Many anchors would provide a live commentary in order to take advantage of the popularity and traffic. How could the Gossip Emperor miss such an opportunity? The big brawl was also known as the big stewpot. If the Gossip Emperor didnt appear, then the CP fans would kick up a huge fuss. Of course, Brother Cai had a voice changer and wouldnt reveal his real identity. Ning Zhehan chatted with Wei Xiao. As they chatted, Wei Xiao glanced at him, Nervous? Ning Zhehan: Wei Xiao was amused. Even Im not nervous. What are you nervous for? Its just Ning Zhehan really was nervous, Im afraid youll be abused. Theyd all more or less come into contact with the big brawl game settings before. This competition had completely broken away from the usual MOBA pattern, and many new rules had been made. What kind of routines could be used was something that was still full of unknowns. Previous Glory events, regardless of whether it was 5v5 or doubles or singles, were all essentially tower pushing modes. As long as the resurrection crystal wasnt broken, players could continue to resurrect and fight. Although every death cost a lot, it wouldnt directly result in the end of the game. The big brawl was different. Everyone only had one life; they would be out of the game as soon as they died. This was the most disconcerting point for players whod already gotten used to the old model. They would cherish their lives more and play more cautiously, which might restrict their ability to play. They might not dare to let go and play to their fullest. Wei Xiao was very open minded about this. Its fine. In any case, everyone is in the same situation. Ning Zhehan: Wei Xiao added, Were all starting from the same starting line. Whats there to be afraid of? The van was only so big, and everyone in the car could hear their conversation. Chen Fengs gaze swept over. In terms of mentality, Wei Xiao was really strong. When they were about to arrive, Chen Feng instructed, Dont be obsessed with results. Get a feel for the atmosphere of the competition. At first, Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan both misunderstood the meaning of these sentences. They thought that Chen Feng wanted them to feel the atmosphere in the big brawl. They didnt think that he was referring to the atmosphere of the whole venue. After getting down from the van, these two cubs who hadnt experienced big competitions before finally understood what Chen Feng meant. The venue in front of them that could hold over 10,000 people was very different from the regular season venues. The regular season games were held in small venues that could only accommodate thousands of people. In front of them now was a big venue that had previously held the domestic finals. Although this all-star game had been set up in a hurry, and the details in the configuration werent as good as the careful preparation that was done for the finals, this audience size that was more than ten times bigger than the regular season audience was still a shock. Wei Xiao had gained a little fame. Many of his fans held Quiet light signs and screamed when they saw FTWs van. Wei Xiao was reserved. It turns out that Im so popular. Everyone: Stop pretending! When they arrived backstage, basically everyone was already there. Asleep had flown in overnight. At this time, hed directly curled up into a ball on the chair to sleep. The make-up artist beside him whispered, Should I fix up his bangs? Cong Yi, who was beside him, said, No need. The make-up artist asked again, Eyebrows Cong Yi: No need. Make-up artist: Then Cong Yi: His lips are a little dry. The make-up artist understood. Okay. Ill help him put on a layer of lip balm. Cong Yi: Mm. Wei Xiao wasnt surprised to see this scene at all. After exchanging greetings, he also found himself a place to sit down. Money, Moonlit, Fu Li, and Eurostar all stared at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was very calm. Good evening, friends. Everyone: Who the hell is friends with you! Chapter 160.2: He confessed in front of the whole world! Asleep, whod been sleeping deeply, also slowly opened up his eyes to stare at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao took the initiative to speak up without Cong Yis translation, Its me, its really me! Asleep closed his eyes. Wei Xiao continued, I even used that account to solo with you before. Indeed The grandmasters clients had basically seen all sorts of alt accounts. Cong Yi was laughing. You guys are really capable. You can form a group and make your debut. His coolly spoken words made the three victims instantly transfer their gazes to him. Cong Yi spread his hands. Who told you guys to be so focused on fighting and killing? Look at me, I dont want to go to the big brawl at all. Eurostar was aggrieved. Me either Fu Li glanced at him. Eurostar straightened up. As men, we should fight in the big brawl! Cong Yi tsked. Fighting, Euro God. 99 big men are waiting for you. Eurostar: QUQ! He wanted to cry but didnt dare. Life was really too difficult! He shouldnt have switched from the top lane to the bottom lane back then. He shouldve switched to play support directly! The only anchor whod been invited in the China competition zone was also a familiar face. His name was Tian Xi, a young man with dyed blue-gray hair. He looked young and didnt seem much older than them, but in fact, he was 26 years old. One good thing about being an anchor was that they didnt have to worry too much about their age. Being able to amuse the audience was more important than their skills. Tian Xi was smiling broadly as he greeted them. Professional players might be more eccentric, but they wouldnt neglect others. They all nodded their heads in greeting. Compared with Tian Xis smooth composure, the three real ordinary players were crazily nervous. Among them were two girls whod been red in the face ever since they entered the lounge, and their sighs came frequently after Asleep fell asleep on Cong Yis shoulder. Cong Yi shot them a smile. Sorry, he didnt sleep well last night. The girls: ! Cong Yi: Theres a game later, so let him sleep a while longer, okay? The girl hurriedly said, Yes yes yes, o-okay! She was so excited that her words were difficult to understand. After preparing for a while backstage, the staff came over to call for them. As they went from backstage towards the front step by step, they could feel the shockwave from having the attention of thousands of people. The host had already been talking for a long time. When the contestants stepped up onto the stage, there was an amazing round of applause. Asleep, Money, Moonlit, Fu Li, Eurostar, Wei Xiao, and Tian Xi were all very popular. In particular, there was also the matter of the IDs, which made the fans even more energetic. They were very excited to see the holders of the IDs. Wei Xiao had very good eyesight and had seen many wonderful light signs from afarCC Money says, Close Has Great Skills. Star-star sighs, Close Is Very Strong. Captain Fu praises, Close Has Super Endurance. Quiet Likes Close The Most! Hm Wei Xiao was a bit satisfied to see that. Although his captain was far away in North America, Close was lighting up the whole court! Thats right. There was a feeling that the whole arena was filled with love rivals. Wei Xiao comforted himself: His boyfriend was too handsome. He had to adapt to it. The hosts interviewed the players one by one, starting with the real lucky players. The two girls were flustered, and the scripts theyd prepared came out in a mess. Fortunately, the host was experienced and was able to guide them well. Next up was Tian Xi. Although Tian Xi had never been on such a big stage, he was still a celebrity who had millions of visitors in his live broadcast room all year round, and his mouth was very sharp. The host tossed out a few memes, and he picked up the thread of the conversation well. The atmosphere was very lively. Next up were the fake lucky players. The host smiled like a fox and asked Eurostar, I didnt know that Eurostar liked Close so much. Eurostar had made preparations a long time ago. Who doesnt like Close? The host asked deliberately, Does everyone like Close? The whole audience kicked up a fuss, and FTW fans yelled loudly, We love Close the most! Wei Xiao: Fine then, he didnt need to have a feeling. It was true that his love rivals were everywhere. Eurostar was an easy target, and the host teased him for a while. But when it came to Fu Li, Money, and Moonlit, she was more restrained with her questions. These people werent good to provoke. Messing up while streaming live wasnt something to joke around with. So, the host avoided a certain sensitive topic and talked seriously. When it was Asleeps turn, the host was even more direct. She simply talked on her own and praised Brother Sleeps recent performance. It was clear at first glance that this was an experienced host. If she really tried to interview Asleep, then it would be embarrassing for the whole audience. Lets play it out in our brains. Host: Good evening, Asleep. Asleep: Host: Are you confident about tonights game? Asleep: Host: Are you planning to fight for first place? Asleep: Zzzz Host: Her salary was going to be deducted until nothing was left! The last interview was with Wei Xiao. The host had heard a bit about Wei Xiao and knew that he had a quick tongue. Shed seen how his words could be shocking in earlier regular season interviews. The host didnt want to mess around and politely asked a few routine questions. Wei Xiao answered seriously. The host became a little carelessCChe didnt seem so bad. This young man was handsome, his voice was crisp, he was polite, and he was really likeable. So, she talked a bit more. Wei Xiao was very cooperative. It wasnt until the time was up that he asked, Should I introduce myself? The host didnt feel that there was a problem and smiled slightly. Of course. She thought that since it was Wei Xiaos first time on such a big stage, he wanted to let the audience remember his name. The little sister whod been coaxed into trusting Wei Xiao handed the stage over to him. Wei Xiao held the microphone and was finally able to say this sentence, Hello everyone, I am I Like Close The Most. The lights fell onto the dazzling stage. The young person in the black uniform was smiling, his mouth slightly curved as he stared at the camera. The tens of thousands of people in the audience: !!! At this time, the Gossip Emperor was also live streaming. Brother Cai had hidden himself in his bedroom, turned on his voice changer, and was boldly analyzing the situation in each competition zone. His first focus was naturally the North American competition zone. Bai Cai understood a lot about Closes fame in ChinaCC For example, if Lu Feng was in China, then the opening game tickets wouldve sold out in just one second. There would be no need for the game officials to release the heavy bomb called Closes heavenly group. Therefore, the Gossip Emperor first provided commentary on the North American live broadcast. Originally, everyone had thought that it would be an online competition and Lu Feng could simply make do with L&Ps training room. Now, theyd changed it to an offline game on short notice, and the North American competition zone had enthusiastically arranged a spot for Lu Feng. In this regard, the China competition zone had also experienced a period of jealousy over this. The content of the exchange had been somewhat likeCC Thats our top-rated player. Dont worry, well take care of him for you. Ha-ha. The North American organizers had even specifically assigned a translator for Lu Feng. In the Gossip Emperors live broadcast room, scrolling comments were being sent out like mad. Thats not necessary. Our Closes English is damned good. Bai Cai explained, Its for the Chinese audience who are watching the live broadcast. The North American competition zone had taken this set up very seriously for the sake of traffic. Although it didnt have much influence on the on-site sales, it had a very big impact on online traffic! Lu Feng entered the stadium with L&P, and having a FTW uniform mix in with the L&P uniforms seemed a little discordant. However, once the camera swept past and gave each person a close-up, everyone stopped noticing the team uniforms. The European and American aesthetic was different from that of Asians, but universally, a height of 1.89 meters and a clearly high quality body was enough to attract countless fans. In China, they always liked to give a close-up shot of Closes upper body, and then rotate the camera to provide shots from all angles. This face of his was always impactful enough to trigger a wave of screams from the scrolling comments. It was different in North America. They focused more on full body shots and paid special attention to the players figures. The domestic fans couldnt help but exclaim, Our Close is handsome no matter how hes shot! He had a good appearance, he was tall, and whats more, he had wide shoulders, narrow hips, and long legsCC Why was he playing games! He should be an international superstar! Bai Cai kept the fans company as they appreciated the captain, but his scrolling comments soon began to explode with news. Gossip Emperor! Gossip Emperor! Quickly switch back to the China competition zone! Holy shit, Quiet is badass! Im dead, Im dead, the Seclusion CP is real! Quiets too capable! He confessed in front of the whole world! What? What? The group all began to ask about the situation, and someone immediately began to explain what had happened. Bai Cai froze for half a second, his movements clumsy as he went to switch channels. The live broadcast channels for each competition zone were different. He hadnt yet gone to watch the domestic competition zone. What kind of crazy thing had Little Lunatic Wei done now? Could this brat just stop for a while?! The frightened Bai Cai rushed into the China competition zone stream. The scrolling comments had already explained the whole story clearly, Quiet is really the king of conversation topics. He said that he wanted to introduce himself, but as a result, he came up with The scrolling comments were filled with a whole stretch of 6666666, which covered up everything on the screen. By the time Bai Cai switched over, Wei Xiao had just finished his important affairs. Everyone at the scene was in a daze, the host included. Wei Xiao was very calm. He even blinked. In fact, not only do I Like Close The Most, the other four The host came back to her senses and quickly interrupted his words that seemed to want to scare people to death, Right, right, right, the ID I Like Close The Most is Quiets! Wei Xiao grinned, Yes. The host was now afraid of this immortal being, In that case, lets take our seats! Hurry up and start playing the game, alright? If the interview continued, it wouldnt be suitable for the live broadcast anymore! The corner of Wei Xiaos lips curved. He was in a pretty good mood. But only Bai Cai could really understand what his expression meantCC Thanks to everyones disbelief, Laozi can declare sovereignty in front of the whole wide world! xiin: but nobody will believe you~ Chapter 161.1: Please behave and eat sugar honestly. There was one other person who understood his expression. It was Coach Chen, who was sitting below the stage. He almost fell off his chair! Fortunately, Chen Fengs complexion was naturally pale. Otherwise, his current appearance would definitely make others suspicious. Why did he look so pale? What has scared you so much?! Ning Zhehan was seated beside him. Little Ning gasped and exclaimed, I was almost scared to death. Cong Yi sat beside Ning Zhehan, and he didnt seem bothered at all. What are you afraid of. Little Ning wasnt on guard against him. I thought that Brother Xiao was confessing in public Chen Feng came back to his senses and interrupted, Watch the game. Ning Zhehans back tensed up, and he sat up straight. Mm-hmm! Cong Yi glanced at Chen Feng out of the corner of his eye and didnt ask anything else. The group of players had entered the competition stage, and the referees verified their identities and equipment. Professional players naturally had their own peripherals, but the ordinary players were more casual and made use of the equipment provided by the game officials. The cameras swept over one by one, showing the layout of the stadium on the big screen. There were still only ten people up on the stage, but the set-up was totally different from how it was in previous 5v5 games. There were no teammates here, only enemies. Naturally, the layout had to be set up in a way that prevented peeping; although nobody peeked at screens in 5v5 games, things werent the same now. The disadvantages of peeping at other peoples screen in a 5v5 game outweighed the advantages, but the situation was reversed for the big brawl. The game officials had combined the stages, and the ten players sat in a semicircle, facing outwards. The screens had anti-peeping coating, and there was enough of a gap between players. At the same time, it allowed the players to face the audience. Without mentioning how the game itself went, just this new circle seating set up was new and refreshing. At the center were the most popular professional players. In turn, there was Money, Fu Li, Moonlit, Eurostar, Asleep, and Wei Xiao. Tian Xi sat to Wei Xiaos right, followed by the lucky ordinary players. The two girls sat to Moneys left and had already started blushing with excitement. This all-star line-up had triggered the audiences enthusiasm, and the live broadcast rooms scrolling comments were also sweeping by explosively. The officials are so evil! They broke up my Money and Little Moonlit! Ying, my Captain Fu and Star-star have been separated. For the first time in so many games, the person sitting to the right of our Captain Fu has changed to a different player. Fellow sisters, look on the bright side. How about shipping the double captains? Is the Star and Moon CP not attractive? Evil cult, get the hell out of here! Compared with RR and TPTs double pairings, Asleep and Wei Xiao seemed slightly pitiful. Out of the two of them, one of them was the only one representing their team, and the other ones captain was far away in North America. The game hadnt yet started. Wei Xiao said to Asleep, Im in a better situation than you are. I can see my captain when I enter the game. Asleep: Wei Xiao was sour. Fine, your vice-captain is watching you from below the stage. Asleep: Wei Xiao tried to get even, Cong Yis no good. He didnt even want to fight side by side with you. Asleep: Wei Xiao was very happy. My captain is different. Hes still on the same battlefield as me despite being thousands of miles away. Asleep: Wei Xiao really had the ability to start up a conversation with him. Yes, yes, yes, were not teammates in the game, but I have Close hanging over my head! Just look at my ID, hey. Asleep: This time, they were real ellipses and didnt mean anything else. He was left speechless! Fortunately, there was no team chat in the big brawl (because there were no teams). Otherwise, if this segment was cut and made into a clip, it would stir up enough noise to fill up the skies. The audience in the live broadcast studio didnt know what they were talking about, but they could tell that the two of them were having a good conversation. In particular, in the Gossip Emperors broadcast, the cult CP fans had already sprung up crazily, like spring after rain. Ive never seen anyone talk so happily with Sleep-sleep before. How about the Grand Sleep CP! One Lamp Grandmaster, a man who can always light up Sleep God! Brother Sleep looks at Quiet differently. Yes, yes, yes, his gaze seems particularly heated! Bai Cais lips twitched as he looked at the scrolling comments. Unfortunately, he couldnt say anything. He couldnt just tell everyone: The grandmasters heart already belongs to someone. Dont blindly put a green hat on Closes head! Knowing too much really wasnt a good thing. His heart felt blocked. For the sake of his captain, Bai Cai diverted the cult fans attention by switching to another camera. Each division had already started the competition process. The cameras were cycling through close-ups of each competition zones opponents. Brother Cai split up the screen. The upper left corner showed the domestic competition zone, the upper right corner showed the North American competition zone, the lower left was for South Korea, and the lower right was the European competition zone. Coincidentally, the four split screens all showed familiar faces at the same time. On the top left was Asleep and Wei Xiao, the top right was Lu Feng and Yuan Ze, on the bottom left was Kim Sung-hyun, and the bottom right showed Yan Jiang and Xie He. The previous Team of Gods showing up on the same screen in such a situation triggered the tears of many old fans. Im in a daze. Screenshot? This scrolling comment set off a thousand waves. Countless people began to press the pause button and take screenshots like crazy. Even Bai Cai took a screenshot. The big screen that showed these seven people, who each had outstanding appearances and their own characteristics, was really eye-catching. Asleep and Wei Xiao didnt need to be mentioned: one had eyes that were half-lidded, looking sleepy as he nestled in the e-sports chair in his usual half-awake state; the other had black hair, pale skin and broad eyebrows, blinking at the camera and flashing his small tiger teeth, his appearance enough to make viewers scalps go numb. In a foreign competition zone and surrounded by strangers, Close was still calm and collected. He hadnt been seen in public for nearly two months, and his short hair had grown a little longer, covering his ears and making his jaw line appear more delicate and sexy. Yuan Ze was to Closes right. It was also a side profile, but their temperaments were different. Yuan Ze had a smile that wasnt a smile on his lips, and his black earring flashed in the light. He looked flippant, and his scum man aura was filled up to the max. The South Korean competition zone camera obviously favored Kim Sung-hyun. This beauty with the tear mole near his eye was right at the forefront, and the other players were only shown in the background, like contrasting green leaves that showcased a red flower. The European competition zone was very much in love with making trouble. Theyd purposely put Yan Jiang and Xie He together and were now displaying a super close-up of these two former teammates. High appearance value was a tradition at FTW. Each member of the Team of Gods had immortal level outstanding appearances. Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, and Close didnt have to be mentioned again, but Xie He and Yan Jiang werent bad, either. The light fell on Xie Hes face. The corner of his mouth was taut, and the corners of his eyes naturally tilted down. He glanced at the camera out of the corner of his eyes, his gaze cold and sharp. Moonlit was also known as Little Xie He. It wasnt only because he played like Xie He, but also because of his character. When it came to prickly characters, if the God Xie from back then claimed to be second, then nobody would dare claim first place. To Xie Hes left was Yan Jiang, whose appearance contrasted sharply with his. Yan Jiang could be said to be the most mysterious person in the Team of Gods, a support player whod gained a spot of honor in the Temple of Glory. Looking back on the first ten years of Glory, and even looking forward to the next ten years, he was probably the only one with such an achievement. His features looked very gentle and elegant, and didnt carry any sense of aggressiveness at all. Sitting there in the contestants seat, he still gave the camera the feeling of a spring breeze. But believing in his appearance would be a huge mistake. He had a shocking affinity for collaborating with others, and also a terrifying grasp over control skills. These two extremely contradictory attributes came together and created this support god. Those who were his teammates could experience heaven and hell at the same time. Whether it was heaven or hell depended on his mood. There was no doubting that the former Team of Gods had a large number of fans in China. The cameras didnt move, and the scrolling comments had already gone crazy. Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He, Yan Jiang, Close. These five peoples names almost filled up the entire screen. The new generation of fans didnt know much about them and started asking questions one after another. It was alright when they didnt ask, but once they asked, it was endless and difficult to calm down. Holy shit, is the Team of Gods so easy to ship?! Listen to this elder sister. Its enough to just eat some sugar from the current FTW twin junglers. Dont go and start digging up old things! Please behave and eat sugar honestly. Dont go and dig up knives! Its really distressing! The players of each competition zone were all in position. The commentators also started the pre-competition warm up. At the end of the day, the big brawl was still a new game mode, and the commentators needed to introduce the rules to the players in detail. After all, the purpose of this all-star opening game was to promote the new game mode. They had to inspire the players interest and ignite their fighting spirit. The commentators for the China competition zone consisted of two famous commentators and one active professional player. Brother Big Mouth was one of the commentators, and the other one was called Anwa. The professional player commentator was 3Us Li Chun. Theyd originally wanted to invite Cong Yi, but Cong Yi had refused, so 3U had sent Li Chun over instead. Li Chun was quite reserved in nature, but fortunately, the commentators were experienced and adjusted the situation accordingly. Brother Big Mouth asked Li Chun, Has God Chun ever tried playing in the big brawl mode? As a professional player, adding god to their name was a polite form of address. Li Chun was a little uneasy. Ive tried it. Anwa continued the conversation, How did it feel? Was it very exciting? Li Chun knew that he should toss out a tidbit at this time,.It was really quite exciting. I encountered Quiet in D Zone, and his plays made my scalp go numb. Brother Big Mouth: Oh? Is Quiet very strong in the big brawl mode? Li Chun smiled wryly. He slaughtered 15 people in D Zone alone. Is that considered strong? Anwas surprise was timely. So strong! Through this introduction, they explained the basic rules for the big brawl. At the start of the game, 100 people would be transported to the Sky Island of Light. The Sky Island was another space that was suspended high above the Glory canyon, surrounded by a vast white fog. Players could vaguely glimpse the wings of a big Roc and a huge Kun swimming in the waters below. It was like a dream-like fairyland. Directly above them, a golden semi-circle halo shrouded Sky Island. The contestants would be within the aura of the halo when they first arrived at Sky Island. As time went on, the aura would shrink, eroded by the white fog. It was very dangerous outside the aura. There were countless ancient ferocious beasts wandering outside, devouring all traces of life. Once players were exposed to the space outside the aura, they would lose all their health within 30 seconds, and it would be game over. So, if they wanted to live, they had to stay under the protection of the aura at all times. However, the area covered by the aura grew smaller and narrower over time due to the continuous shrinkage. The limited supplies couldnt support so many people, so if they wanted to remain standing at the end, they would have to constantly plunder and kill. In the end, the aura would shrink down to the size of a single person, able to cover one person only. This person would be the only survivor. At that time, the halo would enter the survivors body, Sky Island would disappear, and tens of thousands of ancient beasts would all surrender to them. Chapter 161.2: The captain and I share the same heart and mind. The background behind this game mode was very mysterious, but when it came to how it was played, the style was simple and roughCC Kill people, steal equipment, run around within the ring, and fight for first place. The map had undergone a huge revision, and other mechanisms on the map had naturally also changed a lot. The first change was the BP link. It didnt exist in the big brawl mode. Players could choose freely between all professions and talents. They could choose four initial talents and switch between them however they liked after entering the game. In-game equipment and skills werent purchased through a store, but picked up everywhere on the map. What a player picked up, what they used, and what effect they could play out all depended on the players own ability. Regarding death, players could no longer resurrectCCdeath meant that they were out of the game. It was simple and direct. Killing opponents didnt reward gold coins. Instead, they would drop their equipment and skills. If the dropped equipment wasnt suitable for the primary profession, then it could be directly traded for equipment of an equivalent value in the store. It was the same with skills. If the skills didnt match with the talent spec, then it could be replaced with another skill at the same level. However, equipment and skills would only be replaced according to the professions and talents the players had selected prior to starting the game. For example, if all the talents that a player selected was for the thief profession, then it was impossible to trade for mage skills and equipment in the store. So, although there was no BP, players still needed time to choose their starting professions and talents. The commentators naturally wouldnt miss out on this part of the game. The cameras switched constantly to the players, and the commentators also analyzed each players choices. Asleep and Moonlit were very direct. All four or their starting professions and talents were the ones they were good at. Asleeps talents were all from the thief profession. Moonlits talents were all from the mage profession. It was clear that he planned to go in hard and fight until the end. Eurostar-star deserved to be the spokesperson of the scrunched up crying face team. The cowering star lived up to his name. He chose the agile storm hunter and the gold hunter that dealt explosive damage. As for the remaining two talents, he picked the holy priest and the light priest, practically writing afraid of death on his own forehead. It was actually a good mixture of talents. The storm hunter was very flexible and well-suited for running away when they couldnt beat the other side. The gold hunter had two control skills and explosive damage. If he was able to survive until the late stage of the game, he could destroy the heavens and the earth. The holy priest and light priest were both talents that Brother Cai was famous for. Needless to say, they were absolute milk daddies. If they just stood there and let others beat at them, theyd still be able to remain standing like a man for 20 seconds. These three players belonged to the extremist camp, to varying degrees. Money and Fu Li were obviously more rational. Money took two thief talents, then chose a warrior talent that could resist damage and fight. The last talent was a support type shaman. Fu Lis strategy was similar to his. He took three mage talents, including the agile spirit mage, the ice mage with strong control skills, and the fire mage that had high explosive damage. The last talent was a support priest. The commentators said, The two captains thoughts are relatively more stable. They can fight or retreat with talents that possess strong endurance. Theyve picked standard line-ups for brawl fighting. Li Chun nodded. My line-up for the big brawl is similar to Captain Fus. He was a mage as well. Next up was the anchor, Tian Xi, and the lucky players. Tian Xis strength was definitely not as good as that of the professional players, so he strove to be steady and chose three warrior talents and one support talent. The lucky players took the talents they were familiar with, ones that were strong in the current version of the game. The final focus was on Wei Xiao. The commentators looked at his line-up, and their brains crashed. Fortunately, they still had a level of professionalism and reacted quickly, Quiets choices are very unique. Brother Cai, who was watching the live broadcast, sneered: Thats too polite, Brother Big Mouth, just say that hes insane! His style was very different from everyone elses. Wei Xiaos choices were super magical! Generally speaking, players had their own profession specialties. For example, jungler, top-lane, mid-laner, and bottom lane Each specialty had their own advantages, so most players chose talents from a series of fixed professions. Those who wanted to be more reckless went for all DPS talents, and the more rational ones would add a healer. Only Wei Xiao His first choice was the shadow thief. Anwa: This isnt surprising. Quiets shadow thief is very excellent. His second choice was a blood warrior. Anwa paused for a moment. It turns out that Quiets also good with the blood warrior? Its a pretty good choice, this talent has endurance. His third choice was the immortal warlock. Anwa: Brother Big Mouth continued for her, Will he lock it in? Or is Quiet just selecting it for everyone to first take a look? Wei Xiao locked it in. Brother Big Mouth choked, then steadied himself. Quiet is always able to bring us surprises. I wonder what talent hell choose for his remaining slot. Reasonably speaking, he should bring a support talent. Since he already had a top lane, mid-lane, and jungler talent, taking a support talent should be a steady choice. Wei Xiao calmly selected the storm hunter. Everyone at the scene: .. Bai Cai rubbed his forehead: Wei Little Xiao, Im begging you, stop messing around! Was this a line-up that someone human would choose? Is this a line-up that can win?! Isnt it crazy! Shadow thief (jungler), blood warrior (top-lane), immortal warlock (mid-lane), storm hunter (bottom lane). Fortunately, only four talents could be selected. If there were five slots, would it mean that Wei Xiao could form a team and play 5v5 by himself?! The commentators were confused by his actions and said euphemistically, These four talents are all very strong. What else could they say? Lets be honest! These four talents really were strong. They were all talents that could fly up to the heavens when played well. The shadow thiefs light arcs, the immortal warlocks thousand layers of clouds, the storm hunters stepping on raindrops they were all talents that had high upper limits for their extreme operations, and any one of them were real big daddies when they were taken out and used. Wei Xiao took them all. Taking them was one thing. The question was, could he actually use them?! The scrolling comments in the live broadcast had already started making fun of him. Its happening, its happening, Glorys number one poser is online. Lets watch and see how Quiet screws up and sheds poser tears. Tsk. Does he really think that hes an all-rounder king? Q fans, come over and send yourselves to your death quickly. Your Q is acting up again. When it comes to gimmicks, Quiet is definitely ranked first. Hes just grandstanding. I bet my head that hell die as soon as he lands. His fans were also very flustered. Cub, dont panic! Your mentality cant explode! I know that the grandmaster is an all-rounder, but hes now facing god level players from all over the world Im afraid to watch The haters are to blame for this. Quiets just taking the blame for his brothers, but they insisted on taunting and jeering at him! So, the audience started fighting in the scrolling comments. This matter was naturally related to Closes heavenly group. At the time, Wei Xiao had made a statement saying that the four accounts were all his, but nobody believed him. The haters mocked him, saying that it was impossible for him to have four national server top ranked accounts, and flamed him for biting off more than he could chew. Wei Xiao hadnt explained anything at the time, but now he was talking with his actions. Impossible for him to have four national server ranked accounts? Biting off more than he could chew? All-round fart king? Come on then, he would let them see Laozis real strength! Very soon, the trend of the scrolling comments took a sharp turn. Quickly go and watch the North American channel! What? Look at the Closes initial talent choices! The fans switched over very quickly. Even the screen display in the China competition zone venue cut a small frame to show what was going on. Closes initial talent selection page. First choice: shadow thief; second choice: blood warrior; third choice: immortal warlock; fourth choice: storm hunter. His choices were exactly the same as Wei Xiaos! Even the order of his selection was exactly the same! The fans exploded. Is this did they agree on it? Oh my, Im shipping this! No, wait this wait a minute ahhhhhh this is too much! They picked the same professions, the same talents. But even though they made the same choices, the audiences expressed completely different views. Nobody would question Close. Because this three-time consecutive solo champion had already told the whole world with his strength that he really was the all-rounder king. The voices of those who scolded Wei Xiao faded slightly, and some people came out to provide rational analysis, Honestly speaking, if he can play all four of these talents, then itll really be very strong. Nine light arcs plus the thousand layers of clouds plus stepping on raindrops, then adding on the blood warriors high endurance damn! It was a godly combination. But it depended on whether or not he could execute these operations. Finally, the 100 players were all transported to the Sky Island of Light. When they landed, the audience could see each star players landing point from the god perspective map. The Team of Gods has been split into five zones. Quiet and God Yan have run into each other. Theyre both in A Zone! The author has something to say: God Yan switches to healing and is all kinds of unconvinced. Wei Little Xiao: Hm? God Yan: Chapter 162.1: This Quiet is no good. Hes not calm enough. In a normal big brawl game, the players landing point was randomized. There were five zones in Sky Islands outer circle. They were A Zones Moonlight Wetland, B Zones Battlesong Plains, C Zones Falling Star Lake, D Zones Shining Gold Temple, and E Zones Thousand Needle Forest. The names of the zones provided hints on the geography of each zone. The Moonlight Wetland was a relatively rough area, and the Battlesong Plains were relatively flat. The landscape did affect the players to a certain extent. The environment in the wetlands might be worse than that of the plains, but the wetlands were safer to play in. It was easier for players to survive in the early development stages in complex terrain. The flat Battlesong Plains wasnt as easy to handle. It was likely that they would encounter enemies as soon as they landed and instantly break out into battle. The game organizers good intentions could be seen clearly from this arrangement of troops. The Team of Gods, the specially invited professional players, popular anchors, and lucky players could roughly be divided into four grades of players. In order to make this starting game more interesting to watch, the game organizers had secretly adjusted the landing points and basically divided the numbers of each grade of players evenly. The Team of Gods was divided up into the five zones, and the invited professional players were also split up equally. It was the same for the anchors and lucky players. In this way, each zone would experience a wave of wonderful fights even before the halo began to shrink, ensuring that the focus wouldnt remain on a single zone and make the game appear unbalanced. For example, A Zones Moonlight Wetland was the zone that Yan Jiang landed in. This zone held three specially invited professional players, Yan Jiang included, four anchors, and 13 lucky players. When they saw this arrangement, some fans said, The game organizers are really taking care of God Yan. Indeed. The Moonlight Wetland has a terrain advantage, and there are only two other invited professional players here. In Closes area, there are three other invited players, one of whom is ranked second in the world! Because there were 16 invited professional players in total, dividing them up equally was impossible. One zone had to have one extra person. The game organizers had a lot of faith in Close. Not only had they put him in the magical C Zone, Falling Star Lake, theyd even given him an additional master. God Yan is a support player, after all. He cant compare with the other four. It doesnt matter! I already have tears in my eyes because God Yan is taking part in the opening game. Anything is fine! Yes, yes. My heart is already in full bloom just from being able to see God Yans face! Its just How come it seems that my God Yan is a little impatient? Holy shit, you guys, take a look at God Yans talents. If they didnt look, then they wouldnt know, but as soon as they looked, they were shocked. Light priest, holy priest, elemental shaman, minstrel warlock. The four major healers in Glory, each of them with more healing capacity than the previous one. During normal times, putting any one of them in the canyon was enough to heal up all five people in the team. Now that there were four of them were they going to flood the whole Moonlight Wetland with milk?! As the number one support player in Glory, there was nothing wrong with Yan Jiang taking these talents. After all, they were all talents that could perform miracles in his hands. However, the problem was that the current game mode was the big brawl mode. It was a single player mode where all 99 other players were enemies! Taking four healers? He couldnt heal others. Was he planning to kill others using his basic attack? It was unrealistic! These four talents also had one fatal weakness; they didnt have any attack skills. They could either give small heals, large heals, cast control skills or resurrect other players. There was definitely enough self-preservation ability, but the problem was, where was the DPS? How was he supposed to participate in the competition without any DPS?! Some old fans spoke up, I get it. I get it, too. Alright then As long as the big boss is happy. The audience could watch from gods perspective, but the players who entered the game didnt know as much about the situation. For example, in A Zone, they didnt even know who their enemy was, let alone their enemies talents. Everything was unknown, which gave rise to suspense. Wei Xiao had played in the big brawl mode before and knew about the five zones. He preferred the Battlesong Plains, because it meant straight up fighting. It was direct and to the point. The Moonlight Wetland, which required careful development, wasnt as suited to his personality. Of course, he was able to adapt and adjust easily no matter where he was, so wherever he landed wouldnt affect his state in the competition. After landing, Wei Xiao immediately switched to his shadow thief form and entered stealth after upgrading his first skill. Although hed willfully chosen four completely different talents, his thoughts were very clear: not only could he play these heroes well, hed also chosen them because he had to be strong from the early stage to the later stages, and there were many small details in the operations of these talents that could deal with different situations. For example, the shadow thief: after using stealth, he would become a very lethal early stage killer! Wei Xiao carefully looked at the terrain. The Moonlight Wetland was dark and humid. Except for the halo that covered the whole of Sky Island, there were only various dark plants that lived in the swamp. Stepping into the swamp wouldnt cause players to die immediately, but they would lose health continuously. For the players, who only had one life, losing health was very painful. He carefully explored the terrain, trying to obtain some resources and increase his fighting power before he ran into any opponents. Each zone on Sky Island held randomly dropped equipment and skill points. If the equipment was picked up and put on, they would naturally improve a players combat power. Skill points could activate new skills or be used to upgrade existing skill levels. Wei Xiao forged onward. His luck wasnt bad, and he picked up an iron sword and two skill points. The iron sword was for physical strength type professions. After picking it up, Wei Xiao also allocated the skill points to his shadow thief, and was now two skill points away from activating his light arcs. Unfortunately, the game wouldnt give him the chance to continue exploring. There was a row of black magic vines ahead of him. Wei Xiao was just about to cross over it when a floating exclamation mark suddenly appeared over his head. His senses tingled: there were other people around! And it was another shadow thief like him. Where were they Wei Xiao knew that the other side could also see an exclamation mark over their heads, and they must know of his existence. There were many heroes in Glory who had stealth skills. Other than camouflage skills that allowed players to integrate into the terrain, skills that had real stealth would give other players a prompt when they approached. Each talent had its own prompt style. For example, when it was a shadow thief, the exclamation mark would flash, just like this. Although it was impossible to determine where the other party was, they certainly werent far away, and were likely even in the range of attack. Wei Xiao was unable to judge where the other side was, and the other side couldnt determine where Wei Xiao was. It was very difficult for anything to happen if this deadlock continued. What to do? Many people in the audience had noticed the situation. Quiet wasnt known internationally, but the person hed encountered was a famous top anchor from the South Korean competition zone, Xu Tianqi. Xu Tianqi was very good at playing thieves. At this time, many people were watching the situation from his perspective. Fans from South Korea cheered excitedly, First Blood! Hurry and take First Blood! Who is this Quiet? Never seen him before. FTWs new jungler. The Korean audience who only learned about this now: What? FTW switched junglers? Did Close retire? Upstairs, didnt you watch the winter training camp games? Whats so good about watching the winter training camp? Ha, this years FTW is really interesting. Dont underestimate this Quiet. Big brother, abuse him! Let him experience the strength of the strongest thief in our competition zone! Hurry up, take First Blood. Xu Tianqi, youll be the number one in the whole world! Getting First Blood in the big brawl was different from getting First Blood in 5v5. This First Blood announcement would be announced across the entire map and would be seen by all 100 players who participated in the game. The honor of being able to obtain First Blood amongst the worlds top players, and in a situation where the game was being broadcast globally was too tempting! In the Moonlight Wetland, Wei Xiao suddenly cancelled his stealth mode. The scrolling comments immediately lamented, This Quiet is no good. Hes not calm enough. Xu Tianqis chances of winning are stable. Who wouldve dared to think that the person to win First Blood would be an anchor from our competition zone !!! Even before the audience had finished talking on the scrolling comments, they watched as Wei Xiao turned around from where he was standing in front of the magic vines and used a shadow attack, landing it accurately on the person behind him, breaking the other partys stealth mode. Xu Tianqi froze for a moment. By the time he reacted, a series of combos had already swept over, making his scalp go numb. At this time, the commentators had also noticed the fight. They started analyzing the situation after switching the camera over. Quiet is very smart. He cancelled his own stealth in order to lure his opponent in to attack. Based on his understanding of thieves, he knew where Xu Tianqi would launch a sneak attack. This way, he can accurately pinpoint where the other side would approach. There should also be an element of luck behind it. Even if he could judge the positioning of his opponent, grasping the right time isnt easy. The shadow thief had an attack bonus when it attacked from behind. Most shadow thieves would instinctively choose to attack from behind. It was normal for Wei Xiao to be able to predict this. What was really shocking was his control over the timing. How had he known that Xu Tianqi would attack at that particular moment? How had he managed to grasp this timing within only a fraction of a second? Those who were watching from gods perspective didnt understand, because they couldnt hear the sounds from the game. Everyone (including the commentators) were still a little unfamiliar with the big brawl map. Even if theyd tried it on the test servers, there were many details that they may not have noticed yet. Wei Xiao was different. Hed prepared very seriously for this opening game. The reason why he could control the timing so accurately was because of the sound of footsteps. Due to the Moonlight Wetlands special terrain, there would be an extremely light sound of footsteps that could be heard within a certain range. The place where Wei Xiao had removed his stealth had been selected very carefully. It was just under the crawling magic vines. The magic vines were piled up like a small hill, with countless small vines beneath. It seemed that the swamp was poisonous, the toxins having eroded the small vines into dry, gray husks. Wei Xiao had tested this effect before when he was in stealth; if he stepped on these vines, the sound of his footsteps would be extra clear. That was why hed focused on this spot. In front of him was a hill-like pile of magic vines, and behind him were the withered vines. As long as the shadow thief approached Wei Xiao was very focused. After hearing the rustling sound, he turned around and immediately launched a shadow attack on the other shadow thief! Chapter 162.2: The great demon king is still the great demon king. Once an attack hit, stealth mode would disappear automatically. Soo Chanhee, the anchor who was caught by surprise, completely forgot about using his skills! Wei Xiao wouldnt let go of such an opportunity. Although he didnt have his light arcs yet, as long as he linked up his shadow attacks well, he would still be able to DPS like crazy with no cooldowns! Soo Chanhee saw that his health was plummeting and quickly switched talents, from shadow thief to light priest. It was clear that his starting talents included a support talent. The commentator spoke quickly, Soo Chanhee picked up some good resources in the early stage. He activated the light priests first skill, holy land, and can recover a lot of health with his heals! This is one of the things that makes the big brawl mode special. Players can switch seamlessly between their four starting talents, which is equivalent to each player having 16 skills! Of course, they also have to pick up enough skill points to activate them all. It also means that the players have to be more careful about their choices. It has to be said that Soo Chanhees judgement was very correct this time. Instead of putting all the skill points hed picked up to his shadow thief, he also invested in a healing skill. Was that really the right way? Soo Chanhee had anxiously switched to the light priest, but would he really be able to heal himself? Wei Xiaos black eyes flashed slightly, a sliver of a smile appearing at his lips. Bye bye now. Everyone watched as the shadow thiefs figure shook, and he moved into position behind Soo Chanhee, stabbing his blade into his back. Special effects were triggered, and blood spilled. By the time Soo Chanhee turned around, the shadow thief moved with him, attacking him from behind again. Shadow attacks linked with general attacks, and every hit caused critical damage! Soo Chanhees fans were confused, and the live broadcast room scrolling comments were filled with question marks. But the commentators were clear on the situation. The light priests movement speed is low, and his actions are much slower than the shadow thiefs. Although the light priest has high defense and can recover health, its meaningless when faced with the shadow thiefs high DPS! It seems that it was a bad move for Soo Chanhee switching to the light priest. Whoever said that the shadow thief had to use light arcs in order to deal damage? A real shadow thief could stack up fatal damage like crazy! The flying blade broke through the opponents defense, and there was a DPS bonus for attacking from behind. The shadow attacks came continuously, and under these extremely precise and accurate operations, even a light priest that was using its ultimate move and not just holy land wouldnt be able to withstand this damage. Soo Chanhee quickly switched talents again. This time, he switched to the immortal thief. The immortal thief was very agile and very suited for escaping. Unfortunately System Announcement: First Blood! FTW.Close killed S2S.Baron! All the players on Sky Island heard this announcement, and everyone in the live broadcast rooms from all over the world saw it as well. First Blood had appeared. Close had killed an invited professional player, Baron! Wei Xiaos fingers trembled slightly. He suppressed the quiver in his body, and he took away Soo Chanhees last sliver of health with his blade. Zone Announcement: I Like Close The Most killed Soo Chanhee. The Chinese audience exploded, and the entire venue burst out with a wave of startling cheers. The contestants were all wearing headphones, but they could still hear the excited screams. FTW! Close! Quiet! Badass!!! First Blood in the global opening game had come from the China competition zone. The opponent that Close had killed wasnt a regular lucky player, nor was it an anchor who had more gimmicks than strength, but a star player, Baron, one of the 16 specially invited professional players! The North American competition zone had also exploded with excitement. Baron was a famous player from Europe. He was very good at playing jungler and had once smeared Old G all over the ground. He was one of the most hated players in North America. Oh, Close was another one. Who told him to always abuse Old G until hed dropped his pants and had to run around naked? Theyd been very happy seeing that Close and Baron had run into each other. Close had chosen to use the shadow thief talent at the start of the game. He was more pitiful than Wei Xiao was and hadnt managed to pick up any equipment. Hed only picked up two skill points. Baron had been quite lucky. Not only had he picked up an iron sword, hed also obtained three skill points. The difference between having an extra skill point and iron sword was significant. In a 5v5 situation, it was equivalent to a crushing difference in both farm and level, and it wouldnt be easy to overcome. This was especially the case when it came to top players. Their operation level was solid and wouldnt easily make mistakes. Additionally, the place where Close was located was really unlucky. Falling Star Lake was the only underwater zone. Players had to dive underwater in order to pick up resources. However, not only would diving slow down a players movement speed and reaction ability, it would also apply a state of suffocation. Once that state ended, if the player had gone too deep and couldnt get out of the water in time to breathe again, they would enter a state of continuous health loss. Countless players had drowned to death in Falling Star Lake while playing in the test servers. This zone was even worse than the Moonlight Wetland. Generally speaking, very few fights would break out in this zone in the early stages. However, Close and Baron had run into each other head-on. There were two skill points flashing and shining at the bottom of the lake. The two of them noticed the skill points at the same time and discovered each others presence as they approached. They were underwater, suffocating. Fight? Baron was still hesitating when Close had already launched a surprise attack. He didnt have any equipment, so his basic attack damage was very low. Fortunately, his blade flew over fast enough, breaking through Barons defense, which was close to zero. At the end of the day, Baron was an immortal level jungler in the European competition zone. He reacted quickly and pulled away to face Close directly. Hed chosen to start with the devil thief talent, which was squishy and fragile, but had a long range of attack. Unfortunately, Close had chosen to upgrade shadow attack and assault. One of them allowed him to continuously brush out combo attacks, and the other one gave him two movement segments that he could use to get close to Baron. Underwater combat wasnt easy. Compared with fighting on the ground, the heroes moved more slowly and it required some time to adapt. Baran was still getting used to it, but Close had ignored all obstacles and didnt even concern himself with the suffocation value that was sending out warnings like crazy. He played like he was on land, perfectly predicting his opponents position and stabbing Baron in the back with every attack. No way Baron was forced into shifting away continuously and was a little flustered. If it went on like this, he would die in Falling Star Lake. The game had only just started, and he hadnt even gotten out of the outer ring yet. How could the game end like this? Baron forced himself to calm down: His equipment was better than Closes, and he had three skill points. If he fought against him directly, at worst, they would both lose. No, wait! Barons pupils contracted, and he realized what the problem was. Close Chinese fans couldnt understand foreign commentators, but there were also commentators in their own domestic live broadcast rooms. They could see Closes intentions through gods perspective, Its all a cover! Baron fell for it. God Lus acting skills are superb! Close seems to be attacking violently, catching Baron unprepared, but in fact, hes using Barons understanding of the shadow thief to force him to move. Indeed. As a jungler, Baron is too familiar with the shadow thief. His movements to avoid the assault are instinctive, and Close is using this point to force him to move positions. Baron really is avoiding Closes attacks, but Hes also moving further away from those two skill points! The devil thief had the advantage of a longer range, but its disadvantage was that its movement skills covered a shorter distance. Unlike the shadow thief whose second skill had two movement segments, the devil thief couldnt span the distance and reach the two flashing skill points. However, this distance was just within the shadow thiefs range. Underneath the azure water, Close left Baron behind and flashed over to the skill points after his movement skill had finished cooling down. There was a ding sound as Close successfully picked them up! What did having two more skill points mean? It was enough for the shadow thief to brush out light arcs! What did Closes light arcs mean? Destruction of the heavens and the earth. The audience in the live broadcast grew excited. The visual effect of seeing nine light arcs in the canyon was amazing enough, but it turned out that nine light arcs underwater could be even more stunning. Infinite rays of light lit up waves in the water, bubbles gushing out in huge waves at the bottom of the lake. They circled out one by one, picking up speed, then burst out with a bang. The entire Falling Star Lake vibrated with the shock. Stars fell, and the lake sparkled. At this moment, the audience suddenly understood the origin of the name for this zone. Maybe it was unintentional, maybe it was just coincidence. But when the nine light arcs exploded at the bottom of the lake, it was like the sea of stars had been born anew as the heavens and the earth were overturned. Close came out of the water. The shadow thiefs cloak was stained with water, and his hood still covered his features, leaving only a thin chin that was cold, pale, and sharp. First Blood had been obtained in a way that couldnt be questioned. Close had also looted the three skill points and iron sword that Baron had dropped after his death. First Blood came with a special reward, but nobody knew what it was. On the other side, Wei Xiao had also picked up Soo Chanhees skill points and equipment. At the same time, kill rankings came out on the live broadcast platforms from all the competition zones around the world. The players in the big brawl couldnt see it, but the audience could see it clearly. 1st place: Close. 2nd place: I Like Close The Most. 3rd place: Marshal. 4th place: Xiehe. They all had one kill each, and the rankings were based on the kill time. Although this ranking was temporary, it was enough to let the Chinese audience go wild with joy. In the global opening game, FTW had achieved a god level start! Chapter 163.1: Why couldnt he be in the same zone as the gentle and kind God Yan! One characteristic of the big brawl was that once the killing began, the players would grow exponentially in strength. In order to make the game more stimulating, the game system had set the equipment and skill point drop rate to increase gradually in intensity. For example, at the start, when everyone was in the outer ring of the island, most of the drops were low-level equipment like the iron sword, wooden staff, and cloth armor. As the players advanced towards the center of the island, the equipment level that could be picked up grew higher and higher, and special skills would also appear. These so-called special skills could also be called open skills. Players could use these skills regardless of what initial talent specs theyd chosen. The various teams were still exploring the exact effects of these open skills, but the ones they knew of included: flash (a long distance movement skill), heal (recover a certain amount of health), enchant (seduce an enemy within range and control them for 1 second), and speed (greatly increase movement speed for a period of time) Many skills carried over from 5v5, but there were also some unique skills, like enchant. The test server had only been open for a short time. They still needed more data from various games to determine what other special skills existed. Out of all 100 people on the map, the only thing that was known for sure was that Close, whod gotten First Blood, had a special skill. The camera director was very evil. They refused to show Closes skill panel, so even the audience watching the live broadcast didnt know what special skill he had. Commentator: Theres no rush. The answer will be revealed when Close uses his skill. The scrolling comments were filled with booing. The audience was angry that they were purposely keeping people guessing. Even the audience didnt know what skill hed obtained, let alone the players in the game. They only knew that Close had a special skill. If they killed Close, they could pick up all of his gear, including his special skill! So, that led to the question Kill Close? Who could achieve that?! Wei Xiaos heart was delighted: Captain had taken First Blood. Okay then, the happiness he felt was like hed gotten First Blood himself! He picked up Soo Chanhees equipment and poked out a line of text for him, Dont be anxious, Ill rush into the final circle with your legacy. Soo Chanhee was a very authentic Korean player and couldnt understand what hed written. There were some Korean fans who knew Chinese. They translated his words, and then Ahhhhh, God Kim, kill this arrogant little brat! They all swarmed over to watch Kim Sung-hyuns game perspective, waiting for the moment when the most powerful ADC knocked down this stinky brat! But their God Kim was currently in a sorry plight. Kim Sung-hyun had landed in D Zone, the Shining Gold Temple. The Shining Gold Temple, Kim Sung-hyun, and one of God Kims representative talents, the gold hunter, all added up to a very wonderful coincidence. To hell with coincidence. This mustve been arranged by the game organizers! The name Shining Gold Temple seemed more normal than Moonlight Wetland and Falling Star Lake. There shouldnt be any problems in the environment of a temple, which was just a building. But players who thought that way were too naive! The temple was indeed a building. From its appearance, it seemed very magnificent, like a Gothic style church with sharp spires that reached up into the clouds. Numerous figures were carved into the deep entrance hall. Each one was different, and their only similarity was their indifferent gazes, which were all focused on a propped up golden skull. The Shining Gold Temple? It was clearly a church of evil! Its appearance was gloomy and terrible, and the interior was even more sinister. When the players were transferred over, they landed in a maze. The minimap was covered with fog, and the players could only see the location of the aura. If players wanted to disperse the fog, they could only run around the map and explore constantly. The Shining Gold Temples interior was relatively safe because the map was large enough that finding an opponent to fight with wasnt so easy. However the maze was too deadly! Those who had a bad sense of direction could just wait for death insideCCthis was even more depressing than being killed by others! Although Kim Sung-hyun was a marksman, he was a high-end marksman who could fight against the earth, the heavens, and even the air. He absolutely wasnt afraid of going up and fighting against people face to face. However, this type of terrain gave him a very big headache. There were two major stains in God Kims life: One was the shitty Chinese that Teacher Yuan had taught him, and the other was his terrible sense of direction, which was bad enough to make peoples mouths drop open in shock. In the early days of the Team of Gods, Kim Sung-hyun had gotten lost and had been picked up by Close three times, brought home by Yuan Ze four times, walked off with Xie He five times, and been left behind by Yuan Ze six times This three, four, five, six times had already become memes. It wasnt until Kim Sung-hyun returned to Korea and teamed up with the human shaped artificial navigation system Li Heran that things changed for the better. Now The game organizers were really inhumane. Tossing God Kim into the golden maze on his own was really Korean fans watched for a while, then calmed down. Forget it, forget it, dont worry about killing those stinky brats for now. God Kim, take care of yourself first! Miserable. He was really miserable. Just looking at how each competition zone already had players whod shown up on the rankings was enough to make the Korean audience very anxious! There was another person in the golden temple. Their ID was Close Has Super Endurance, and the player was Fu Li. The audience soon discovered this magical person. The maze was difficult to walk around in because there were too many split paths. Going through them one by one took up too much time, and players would become increasingly upset with each dead end they encountered. Fu Li wasnt upset or frustrated, and he didnt waste any time. He picked up a second level ebony staff soon after he landed. His luck was pretty good; for a mage, being able to pick up this ebony staff in the early stages was equivalent to doubling their DPS. In the entire Shining Gold Temple, with this god level weapon in hand, even Kim Sung-hyun might not be able to gain any benefits from him if they ran into each other and started fighting. It wasnt an exaggeration to say that after Fu Li picked up this staff, he could dominate and become the king in the Shining Gold Temple in a short period of time! Unfortunately, this man didnt waste a single second and traded the ebony staff without any reluctance even before it entered his backpack! At first, the audience was confused. Did his hand slip? The domestic TPT fans: Would our Captain Fu make such a low-level mistake? Panicking, panicking, Im panicking. Someone with a clearer perspective guessed, Hes worthy of being a data emperor. He really did enough homework! Fu Li traded his ebony staff in exchange for two pairs of high level shoes. The movement speed bonus for shoes in 5v5 couldnt be stacked up, but it was different in the big brawl mode. Bonuses from identical pairs of shoes couldnt be stacked up, but 50% of the bonus from a second pair of a different pair of shoes could be stacked. 25% of a third pair of shoes could also be stacked and so on, with decreasing returns. There were seven types of shoes in the shop. One of them was called speed-walking shoes. As its name suggested, wearing it increased movement speed. Fu Li bought a second pair of shoes, cooldown shoes which reduced skill cooldown times. His choices were very ingenious. Not only had he greatly increased his movement speed, hed also reduced the cooldown time of his skills as much as possible. It had to be known that spirit mages were mages with multiple movement skills. If the cooldown time was short, then it could constantly shift and move around, which was another way of increasing movement speed. After this series of actions were completed, everyone was shockedCC Close Has Super Endurance was now a woman who moved like the wind (the talent design was female). It was very possible that there was nobody in the entire map who could catch up to her! While D Zones overlord, God Kim, was still bumping into dead ends that left his head covered in bumps, Fu Li was already getting close to the exit to the maze. The game officials became even more cruel and provided another ranking. The rankings for players closest to the Central ZoneCC In first place was Close Has Super Endurance. He was a full 800 meters ahead of second place. Fans from all over the world burst into laughter when they saw this ranking flash up. It didnt mean much. There wasnt anything wrong with the ranking. After all, it was a competition system that relied on running around the map, and paying attention to the players position was a required part of the game. But, this ID! Close Has Super Endurance was translated into several languages, and the great demon king once again became famous in the world in a very strange way. Captain Fu knew nothing about all of this. He was nothing but a ruthless map running machine. He had to pick up equipment, pick up skill points, run out of the maze, rush to the Central Zone, and enter the final circle. Ranking wasnt important. The important thing was collecting, collecting, and more collecting! Due to Super Endurances brilliant feat, many members of the audience began to pay attention to this player and soon learned that this was the China competition zones TPT teams team captain. They then began to focus on another player from TPTCCEurostar. Eurostar had been sent to E Zones Thousand Needle Forest. The Thousand Needle Forest also had its own characteristics. From the words thousand needle forest, it should have been designed to be a pine forest? After all, pine leaves were shaped like needles, so it wouldnt be too overboard to call them thousand needle trees. Those who thought this way had underestimated Glorys bastard game planners. Thousand, needle, forest. Theyd taken the literal meaning of these words. The ground was filled with sharp ice needles. They covered the entire E Zone, and from afar, it looked like a lush jungle. But what grew in this jungle werent trees. They were all needles. Ordinary players who were transferred to this place would really start crying for their parents. There were needles everywhere. If one didnt pay attention to where they were walking, they would lose health. There werent many medicine bags that could be collected in the outer ring. If a players health dropped continuously like this, they wouldnt even have to fight before they came close to death. This place really tested the players positioning skills. In the 5v5 canyon, good positioning could evade an opponents skills, allowing them to seize opportunities and go against the flow of the battle. In the Thousand Needle Forest, players who couldnt position themselves well when they walked would be eliminated. In fact, Eurostar was still doing alright when faced with the Thousand Needle Forest After all, he was an ADC who survived by relying on his positioning, so he wouldnt accidentally step onto a needle and stab himself to death. What was giving him more of a headache was his opponent. As soon as he landed, his sharp eyes had noticedCCXiehe, Moonlit. Oh god! The terrible memories from winter training camp surged up into his mind, and Eurostar almost committed suicide on the ice needles on the spot. Why? Why was he in the same zone as these two difficult thorns! Why? Why couldnt he be in the same zone as the gentle and kind God Yan! Chapter 163.2: On a magic vine that grew wantonly upwards into the sky, there sat a holy priest. In winter training camp, Wei Xiao had been in Group A, and Eurostar had been in Group B. Eurostar had been overjoyed and wanted to beat the gongs and drums to celebrate when he learned that he was far away from One Lamp Grandmaster. Then, hed seen the 1.7m tall God Xie whose killing aura was 2.8m tall. Group B, TPTs first game. Eurostar had been chased and killed all over the map by Xie He. Eurostar had cried very loudly in their team chat, Isnt he a mid-laner? Isnt he a squishy hero? Shouldnt he be a c-position who loves being protected? Captain Fu was cold and ruthless. Obviously, hes not. Throughout the entire game, Eurostar experienced 13 ways to die. After meeting One Lamp Grandmaster, the ID Xiehe also left a deep and indelible mark of fierceness and cruelty on him. Then, Moonlit also experienced a wave of 13 deaths. Eurostar had gone looking for him: I understand you. If you want to cry, I can lend you my shoulder. Moonlit: Ha-ha. Hed also been abused miserably, but Moonlit went up to challenge these difficulties and began to frantically look for opportunities to fight against Xie He. He even won against Xie He with his immortal warlock at the end of the winter training camp. Eurostar had known that Moonlit was fierce, but he hadnt expected him to be this fierce! What was wrong with this era of mid-laners?! Did they all consider themselves to be jungler kings?! Later, Eurostar had also won against Xie He once. It had made him feel relieved all over, the feeling so amazing that his scalp was numb and tingling. It also made him realize what the ultimate experience was. How had he won? It was during the free matching period. Eurostars luck had broken through the charts, and hed been matched up with Yan Jiang as a teammate. Yan Jiang had casually taken a holy priest, and Eurostar had casually taken a gold hunter. On the other side, Xie He had taken the immortal warlock, but as a result, hed been shot at until his head was covered in bumps and wounds. This video replay was still circling on the internet, and it was the source of the scandal between Yan Jiang and Eurostar. With this history between them, Eurostar-stars current mood was very easy to understand. God YanCCan immortal support who was like a spring breeze. Becoming his treasured darling could make him happy enough to fly up to the heavens. Xie HeCCa real daddy who was 2.8 m tall. He didnt dare to meet his gaze, and just one look meant death. MoonlitCCa small daddy who was almost 2.8m tall. He didnt know when, but he would be beaten into seclusion by his thousand layers of clouds one day. The heavens pitied and protected him. After Eurostar saw these two people from afar, how would he dare to reveal himself? He made use of his many years of experience in escaping and hid himself very well in the Thousand Needle Forest. If there was a ranking for the most timid player on Sky Island, Brother Star would definitely be in first place! When it came to the most exciting zone, it was definitely B Zones Battlesong Plains. In the other zones, the players were still fighting against the natural environment. But in B Zone, the players had already started fighting in groups. Yuan Ze, Asleep, and another invited player from North America were fighting hard. They were the ones whod started fighting the earliest, and their fight was also the fiercest, and the most intense, but First Blood had still gone to Close. Yuan Ze: F*ck! Hed been sent to the Battlesong Plains, but still hadnt gotten First Blood. Old Dog Yuan felt like hed lost his dignity! It was as though the game organizers wanted to continue this comedic effect until the very end. They provided another ranking list on the live broadcast screen. Sky Islands richest player. 1st placeCCClose Has Great Skills. It took everyone a moment to react when they saw this ID. They quickly went to look at the distance rankings and discovered that Close Has Great Skills and Close Has Super Endurance werent the same person. The translators quickly provided translations for the names. There was another uproar in the live broadcast rooms across the world. The China competition zone really knew how to play on a large scale! Even the IDs they came up with were like this! Great Skills was Money. Captain Mo was in C Zones Falling Star Lake, in the same zone as Close. His luck had broken through the charts, and hed landed on a mound of coral. Why were there coral in a lake? Dont ask. If you ask, then it was a fantasy setting, and the game planners had final say. It was probably because Money spent too much money in normal life, so hed collected enough karma and could basically pick up money like crazy as soon as he landed There were money fish living in the coral. Stabbing one to death would drop 100 gold. There was also a gold bonus for combos. Money was immersed in killing the fish. Having money was very useful. Although it couldnt be used to buy equipment (equipment had to be collected or traded in with equivalent equipment and couldnt be bought or sold), it could be used to buy medicine bags! The shop offered various types of mana and health medicine. Money picked up so many gold coins that it was like he was carrying a medicine jar on his back. Of course, this medicine couldnt be used during battle, but it could be used to prolong ones life after a fight so that they were in the best state before starting the next fight. Money killed all the money fish and bought all the health and mana medicine he could before rushing proudly towards the Central Zone. With his money, with the medicine bags he had in hand, who was there to be afraid of?! He wasnt afraid of anyone! It was precisely such a confident Captain Mo who encountered a blood-stained blood warrior, standing there with a bloody sword in hand. Money: ! Close: Captain Mo, whod been unafraid of the heavens and the earth just a moment ago, turned around and ran. Damn it How could Close be in C Zone? Why was he so unlucky that he ended up in the same zone as this killing god?! Moneys initial talent was the gun thief, which was a talent spec that had a lot of movement skills. Once the gun was loaded, the hero could move along with the gun. If it was used properly, the player could constantly refresh their skills and move forward. The China competition zone locked their gazes on this scene and began to watch the chase between the two. Captain Mos decision is pretty good. He really should start running when he meets Close. Close has already obtained three kills and is ranked first on the rankings. Hes already put together one full piece of equipment, and hes also unlocked all the skills for the death knight. Gun thieves wont win against the death knight. Especially when it comes to Closes warrior talents, which specialize in killing all sorts of thieves. But will Captain Mo be able to run away? Close has a movement speed bonus. Captain Mo Oh, Captain Mo has nothing but money. Medicine bags could also be converted into gold coins. Money had no equipment and no skill points. He really had nothing but money. Then there was Close, who had one piece of finished equipment and eight skills. He caught up with Mo Hui very easily. The TPT fans bawled, Captain Mo!!! Are you actually lucky or unlucky?! Was he unlucky? Hed started off at the coral mound and had killed money fish until his hands were tired. Hed gotten first place on the gold rankings and was the luckiest person on the whole map. Was he lucky? These gold coins hadnt even warmed up in his pocket, and he hadnt used a single medicine bag before hed run into the great demon king who was at full health. The Gossip Emperor found the essence of the matter. Its time for Captain Mo to experience whether or not Close Has Great Skills. This ID was perfect for the occasion. A commentator sighed. If Close kills Mo Hui, hell obtain 3000 gold coins. When that happened, who would be able to stop this super great demon king who had money, equipment, and strength?! The camera switched back to A Zones Moonlight Wetland. Wei Xiao had also encountered a situation. After killing Soo Chanhee, hed caught a lucky player. Professional players fighting against ordinary players was like holding a kitchen knife to cut up cucumbers. They were crunchy and squishy. After killing the lucky player, Wei Xiao continued his march towards the Central Zone. He then saw two people standing in a deep-water swamp. They stood facing each other and werent fighting. Players could type to communicate with each other in the big brawl mode. However, the typing was limited by area and could only be seen by players within a small radius. Wei Xiao couldnt see what they were saying, but he could guess that they were communicating with each other. In the big brawl mode, all players were enemies, and there were no teammates. These were the settings for the game. But the ones playing the game were people, and people had their own ideas. It wasnt impossible for players to form an alliance with each other in the early stage, then turn against each other in the later stages. Obviously, these two people had formed an alliance, planning to rush out of the A Zone and enter the Central Zone together. Wei Xiaos eyes curved slightly. He jumped out. Hello! He was a courteous and well-mannered Wei Little Xiao. The two men were startled and instantly went on alert. Wei Xiao typed fast, and he attacked even faster. Hed already obtained six skill points, and not only did he have the shadow thiefs light arc, hed also activated his immortal warlock. At this time, he was using the immortal warlock talent, and the skill he used was also the immortal warlocks skill, connecting clouds. A stream of white fog streamed out. If it touched an opponent, it would fly back and start up an attack. Of the two allied people, one was a power thief, and the other was a berserker warrior. Both of them were very skilled in individual combat. As soon as they looked over, they saw that it was a little immortal warlock and were relieved for a moment. This time, you take the equipment. I want the skill points. Okay! Discussing how to split the spoils before the fight? They were really overconfident. Also in A Zone. On a magic vine that grew wantonly upwards into the sky, there sat a holy priest. He had a slender figure, and his attitude was cold and indifferent. The white priest uniform that represented light and holiness, hung down and covered his straight legs. Only a pale wrist could be seen holding the dark, evil vine. The vines were a dark and gloomy demonic creature. The priest was a spokesman for the pure and flawless god. At this moment, the two existences were in perfect harmony, creating an atmosphere of breathtaking beauty for the scene. The holy priests ID was shockinglyCCY1.Yan. Yan Jiangs hands fell lightly on the keyboard and mouse. He didnt make any actions. He looked down at the three men fighting in the swamp, his expression calm. Except for his old fans, there was probably no one else who knew what he was thinkingCC What kind of stupid competition system was this, an early death meant an early excuse from death. The author has something to say: Hehe xiin: dun dun dun~ Chapter 164.1: Forget it... Hed just play with them a little more. Yan Jiangs position was at just the right place to allow him to see the battle below at a glance. Quite a few players had followed his perspective and found that it was more comprehensive than watching Wei Xiaos perspective or the perspective of the two players whod formed an alliance. Even the director had discovered this point. He switched the camera to Yan Jiangs perspective directly, and the commentators were drawn over, staring at this 1v2 to provide commentary. This battle was very interesting. Needless to say, Wei Xiao had gained a small amount of fame due to his crazy talent choice, fierce kill count, and his deadly game ID. The other two IDs were also worth paying attention to. They werent team IDs, but like Wei Xiao and Money, they were professional players disguised as lucky players. The power thief was Herman, a top-laner from a top team in North America, and the berserker warrior was called Jacob. He was another player from North America. It was because they were from the same competition zone that theyd recognized each other as soon as they met. Both of them had warrior talents, and the equipment theyd picked up was basically the same. Their skills were also at around the same level, and there also wasnt much difference in their personal levels. If they really started fighting, both sides would suffer heavy losses, and the one who remained standing would likely become an easy target for others due to his low remaining health. So the two of them had communicated with each other And formed an alliance! Who couldve known that just after theyd discussed how to cooperate, a little brat would send himself up to their door? And it was a little immortal warlock whod only unlocked his first and second skill! How many skills had been unlocked for a talent could be seen publicly through a small icon positioned beside the players name. For example, at this time, the power thief and berserker warriors IDs both had a 3 behind them, while Wei Xiaos ID was followed by a 2. Based on this, the Wei Xiao who was rushing over was obviously just offering his head up on a platter. Two skill points couldnt be considered a lot, but nobody would disdain the amount for being too small. The power thief and berserker warriors hearts leapt with joy. They were determined to take down this little immortal warlockCCit was probably an ordinary player. Looking at this ID, there was a good chance that they were a Close fan. The power thief proudly typed out a string of English, Little brother, take care. Wei Xiao understood and replied, Okay. The audience who knew the truth sent out scrolling comments like crazy when they saw these two sentences, Fellow brothers, take care. Just these two? Both of them only had three skill points each on their entire body. As for equipment, they each had a pair of straw sandals. After running into Wei Xiao, whose shadow thief had unlocked all its skills and who had casually started unlocking immortal warlock skills, werent they just sending themselves over to die? The power thief and berserker warrior regarded Wei Xiao as a fat lamb waiting to be slaughtered. How could Wei Xiao not regard them as delicious and fragrant meat buns? A fierce battle was imminent! The power thief first used a ground stab. It was clear that he was afraid that Wei Xiao would retreat after knowing he was in a difficult situation and run away. The berserker warrior followed up quickly, holding up both axes in his hands and preparing to use his core skill at any time. With this set up, if Wei Xiao really was a weak immortal warlock, then he wouldve been sent out of the game already. As everyone knew, the immortal warlock was a weak little brother before it reached level six. He couldnt brush out the thousand layers of clouds, couldnt stack up cloud marks, and the damage he could deal was extremely low. The immortal warlock was also very beautiful. Although the talent design was male, his ethereal clothing drifted around him, and his body was thin and slender. His long, black hair hung loosely down to his waist, and he moved like he was dancing among clouds when using the connecting clouds skill. This scene had a very large visual impact. Two burly men and one beauty. The audience couldnt bear to look at it directly! However, this beauty didnt follow the script. A chat box popped up over his head, Big brothers, youre both so fierce~ This ~ was enough to make people go bald. The power thief and berserker warrior felt goosebumps break out over their skin. A thought popped up in their minds: Is this a girl? Closes fangirl? Forget it, it was a global live broadcast. There was no such thing as showing mercy to an opponent. Naturally, they couldnt show mercy even if they wanted to. Theyd already launched their skills and couldnt take them back no matter what. Seeing that the immortal warlock was about to be dragged over by the ground stab, the berserker warriors bold and resolute was also about to chop down on the warlocks head There was a whoosh sound as connecting clouds hit the power thief. The white fog turned into a long dragon, interrupting the power thiefs roundhouse kick. The power thief was stunned briefly. He thought to himself: This immortal warlock has really fast hand speed! However, hand speed was useless no matter how fast it was. It was difficult for a skillful woman to make a meal without rice, let alone an ordinary player. In any case, it would be useless even if they had the ability to brush out thousand layers of clouds. With only two skills, the immortal warlock didnt have the ability to brush out a single layer of clouds! The power thief didnt panic. He gathered his strength and attempted another kick at the immortal warlock. The berserker warriors forward swing was over, and his skill flew out. The immortal warlock was caught in the middle between them. There was no way to hide, and he could only take the hit. With his squishy body, one roundhouse kick, and one bold and resolute would likely take him directly into a heavily injured state. Was the immortal warlock done for? Only the power thief and the berserker warrior thought so. The audience all over the world who were staring at the live broadcast were thinking, Its coming, its coming. In the next moment, the immortal warlock swam away like a fish in water, sliding out from the left side between the two people. The power thief and berserker warriors eyes quaked with shock. What was going on? The immortal warlocks first skill was connecting clouds, and the second skill was landing on clouds. Neither of them were movement skills! Hed clearly been a weak newbie caught in a corner. How had he slipped out? While the power thief and berserker warrior were still shocked, they suddenly found that there was a more fatal problem in front of them. Their skills The roundhouse kick, and bold and resolute! The power thief watched as the berserker warriors axe swept over, but he had no way to dodge! The berserker warriors situation wasnt much better. He watched the power thiefs kick approach, but there was already no time to move away. Bang! Clang! Special effects from the skills exploded. The power thief lost a third of his health from the slash, and the berserker warrior was also beaten black and blue by the power thiefs kick. This wave of operations actually happened very quickly. The entire process only took a few seconds, but the audience was already applauding like crazy. The commentator provided a wonderful review, Quiet had been ready for a long time. He stood between the power thief and the berserker warrior, lured them to release their skills at the same time, then used the ability to instantly switch talents to use the shadow thiefs movement skill and slide out! All skills used in the big brawl are indiscriminate attacks, so the power thiefs skill smashed into the berserker warriors face, and the berserker warrior also cut down the power thief! Did you want to form an alliance? Have you asked the game system daddy for permission? Wei Xiao, whod dodged away, was very evil. He took advantage of a spot where the power thief and berserker warrior had no vision to instantly switch back to the immortal warlock. How fast was this hand speed? The game needed to be replayed slowly in order to understand it. Of course. Some peoples dynamic vision was different from ordinary people. For example, that of Yan Jiang who was seated on the magic vine, coldly watching the scene unfold beneath him. He had likely seen even more details than the commentators. For example, the immortal warlock had used connecting clouds to interrupt the power thiefs first roundhouse kick in order to make time for the berserker warriors skills forward swing. Another example was how the immortal warlock had used the ground stab to shorten the distance between him and the power thief, forcing the berserker warrior to move forward so that his skill would be within the attack range. The audience only saw the excitement from his operations, only knew that Wei Xiao had toyed with the allied duo, and they only thought that hed operated very freely with very casual movements. Experts could see these micro operations at a glance. As long as even a single detail hadnt been controlled well, it wouldnt be the power thief and berserker warrior attacking each other, but the immortal warlock returning back to heaven. I Like Close The Most? Yan Jiang stared expressionlessly at this ID. Wei Xiao toyed with these two like monkeys, but the two of them didnt want to be monkeys. After being teased like this, the power thief and berserker warrior grew angry. Who present here wasnt a master at the game? If you played with Laozi, then Laozi would take turns killing you! The power thief and berserker warrior grew serious. They didnt have to type for their thoughts to be of the same mindCC Kill this immortal warlock! Kill him no matter what! Another line of words popped up above Wei Xiaos head: Big brothers, dont get angry. Im sooo scared. His English was pretty good and was right on point. The power thief and berserker warrior: Calling them big brother was useless. They had to kill him today, kill him until he called out daddy! Although the two of them only had basic equipment and limited skill points, theyd picked up a bag of money from the swamp. At this time, they immediately purchased medicine bags and took advantage of the break in the battle to recover their health. The health that had originally dropped due to their mutual attacks recovered significantly. Wei Xiao tsked. It was nothing, just heartache. If hed finished the fight earlier, those medicine bags would also be his. Forget it Hed just play with them a little more. Wei Xiao tried to repeat the same trick, but the power thief sneered, You want to do it again? Dream on! The berserker warrior had controlled his distance well this time. The end of his skill would reach the immortal warlock, but not the power thief. The power thief also controlled the angle of his roundhouse kick, ensuring that he wouldnt injure his teammate by mistake again. They were even on alert against Wei Xiaos instant movement. Due to the immortal warlocks layers of white fog, they hadnt seen anything when Wei Xiao switched talents. They didnt know that he also had the shadow thief talent, and only thought that hed picked up an open skill by chance. There was a flash skill amongst the list of open skills that had been made public. When they thought of this, the power thief and berserker warrior became even more energetic. After killing the immortal warlock, not only would they pick up skill points and equipment, theyd also win a rare open skill. How wonderful! As long as they could kill this little demon. Chapter 164.2: Was the new FTW and old FTW about to tear into each other in the Moonlight Wetland? It was difficult to say if Wei Xiao was a demon or not, but the fact that they were unable to chop him to death was definitely true. Seeing that the two peoples skills were about to land again, Wei Xiao first used connecting clouds to push away the power thiefs roundhouse kick, then turned his body to the side to avoid the bold and resolute skill. At the same time, he used landing on clouds on the power thief, cutting down a quarter of his health. The power thief didnt take this damage seriously at all. He first used his ground stab, which had come off cooldown, and forced Wei Xiao to shift positions. Then, the berserker warrior cooperated with tacit understanding and raised up his double axes over his head, causing the ground to shake with his force. These two skills were powerful control skills. As long as they hit Wei Xiao, he would immediately enter a dizzy state. When that happened, he wouldnt even be able to think about avoiding the next attacks. The power thiefs third skill double-edged sword, and the berserker warriors crazy dive were both damage dealing skills. If they were really allowed to use them, then he would basically be broken into two halves. To Wei Xiaos left was the ground stab, and to the right was the double axe earthquake. The power thief was in front of him, and the berserker warrior was behind him. There was no escape from the attacks that came from all sides. If he stood still and didnt move, he would be hit by the power thiefs double-edged sword. This power thief skill was very powerful. According to the game logic, the power thief didnt use weapons. The damage he dealt all relied on his fists and physical ability. He was a man with an excellent physique. However, his third skill was called the double-edged sword. The sword named in this skill wasnt a real sword, but rather, it represented the meaning of the skill. Double-edged swordCC If it hit the enemy, it would deal a high amount of damage. But if it didnt hit the target, the player themselves would suffer 50% of the damage. In other words, if the power thiefs attack hit Wei Xiao, then Wei Xiao would be beaten into low health. However, if Wei Xiao avoided it, then 50% of the attack would rebound and harm the power thief instead. This was a high-risk, high-reward skill. It was also the power thiefs core skill! A power thief who could use double-edged sword well could transform into a demon with immortal level DPS. The immortal warlock couldnt avoid the hit. He couldnt escape no matter what. Connecting clouds and landing on clouds were both on cooldown, and he no longer had any open skills. He could only stand in the middle and Switch talents! The immortal clothing turned into fog, and his ink black hair was dyed red. A blood colored cloak came into being from thin air and landed on the thief, leaving only his cold, pale chin peeking out from beneath his hood and the crimson blade that hung at his waist. At this moment, the power thief and berserker warrior whod watched the scene clearly both sucked in breaths of air. This kid The immortal warlock had only been a cover. There was now a shadow thief with a blue-grade equipment; give it a try? This scene not only shocked the two people in the Moonlight Wetland, it also shocked the global audience who were watching the fight. Holy shit, thats so handsome! The game planners put in a lot of effort. This talent switch is too explosive! Is the immortal warlock and shadow thief so well matched? Fellow sisters, how about trying a self-gong and self-shou combo?! What was even more amazing was Wei Xiaos hand speed. He switched talents in a flash, then used shadow attack in the same instant. He hid himself, used his movement skill to shift into his opponents face, launching a sneak attack from behind. This series of simple and direct moves was so perfect that it was like an exquisite work of art displayed under brilliant lights He left marks, stacked up damage, and not only did he avoid the power thiefs double-edged sword, he even flew towards the berserker warriors back. Critical hit, rend, explosive damage! Some people had seen the situation clearly. Light arcs holy shit hes about to brush Is it nine light arcs? No way, will two people brush out nine light arcs during the big brawl? Hurry up, hurry up, Laozis gonna The marks were filled up, and the damage had been sufficiently stacked up. The light arcs flew out of the blood blade, and the terrible light arcs that spanned 180 degrees swept out like a giant blade. The colors changed constantly, crimson, dark red, cherry red, orange yellow, bright yellow, white, cold white, blue F*ck! Eight arcs! Damn it, its just missing the last bit The arc color corresponded to flame temperatures, going from the starting red to an extreme dark blue, like an ultra-high temperature flame that could burn everything. The layers of progressive color changes finally stopped at eight light arcs. It was still gorgeous, still eye-catching. It already held huge lethal power, but at the end of the day, it was still one step worse than nine lights. The special effects dispersed. The power thief whod already lost a portion of his health from the backlash of the double-edged sword ran out of HP, falling into the swamp with an empty health bar. The berserker warrior had a higher defense and more health. Due to his innate high defense and the fact that he was positioned further away from the core of the light arcs, hed taken less damage and still had a third of his health left. Seeing that his ally had fallen to the ground, the berserker warrior turned around to run without a second thought. Damn it How was this anything like a little demon? It was clearly an old demon master! Playing with peoples hearts, trampling on their dignity, and toying with them until they were spinning around in circles. Yet they had no way to resist. It was 1v2, but theyd been beaten up until they were crawling on the floor in a mess. It would be really humiliating if it was mentioned to anyone. Oh, there was no need to mention it. This was on a goddamned global live broadcast! The berserker warrior muttered in his heart: Damn it, damn it, please dont let anyone have been watching them. There shouldnt have been anyone watching, right? The big brawl had an all-star line-up participating in the game. Nobody would watch civilian players like them. He was in the midst of trying to comfort himself when the shadow thiefs movement skill, sudden strike, brought him close. A flying blade floated by, taking away the berserker warriors life. Regional announcement: I Like Close The Most killed Herman. I Like Close The Most killed Jacob. I Like Close The Most double kill! Wei Xiao quickly collected the dropped equipment and skill points on the ground. He unlocked all the immortal warlocks skills, then lifted his head, Was it a good show? The angle of his gaze was accurate, locking directly onto the white figure sitting on the magic vine in the distance. Yan Jiang: The audience in the live broadcast room exploded. Quiet knew that there was someone on the magic vines! How did he discover God Yan? This little brat is really amazing! If it wasnt for the fact that his ID is too deadly, I would become one of his fans. Because countless members of the audience were watching from Yan Jiangs perspective, they could see exactly what Yan Jiang could see. In the vast swamp that roiled with strange black bubbles stood an immortal warlock dressed in floating, immortal clothing. His ink colored hair was loose, and a few strands would occasionally sweep against his cheek, highlighting the creamy paleness of his skin. His cold eyebrows were raised up, his dark eyes seeming to stare straight into a persons heart. It was clearly just a game character, but it seemed to hold a soul! Being looked at like this was enough to make their heart rate accelerate! The audience stared fixedly at the scene and didnt have the slightest intention of switching to watch the situation in the other zones. Although they werent fighting anymore, watching a newcomer act so arrogantly and provocatively towards the worlds number one support player was really too exciting! And, this newcomer was FTWs new jungler king. This number one support player was also the former Team of Gods captain. What made it even more exciting was that Yan Jiang didnt know who the person with the ID I Like Close The Most was! Interesting, interesting. This scene was very interesting from every angle. What was going to happen? Would Yan Jiang come down? Would the two of them solo? Was the new FTW and old FTW about to tear into each other in the Moonlight Wetland? Dont ask, if you ask, then theyre really high! The audience was in high spirits, but it was quiet in the game. The dark swamp that stretched as far as the eye could see, the magic vines that shot straight up into the sky, and the two charactersCCone was a holy priest that represented holiness and light, and the other was an immortal warlock wearing wide robes with long sleevesCCthey looked at each other from afar, across the dark and gloomy Moonlit Wetland. The magic vines shook. The stiff priest garb was neat and tidy even when blown up by the wind. Yan Jiang came down, and his ID was finally exposed to Wei Xiaos gaze. Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment. Yan Jiangs fingers tapped lightly as he knocked out a word, Yes. This was in response to Wei Xiaos earlier question. Wei Xiao: Half a second later, he reacted in shock, God Yan? Y1.Yan. Who else could it be besides Yan Jiang? Not to mention, this holy priest that was crowned with the glory of the champion. This was a privilege from the 5v5 team competition. When using the talent that won the final game, a special championship effect would appear beside the players game ID. A tiny little crown that represented the glory of victory! This was a glory that the current FTW could only hope for, but not expect. The championship special effects had appeared two years ago, so Lu Feng didnt have this little crown despite having won a 5v5 championship. Wei Xiaos eyes heated, and his heart was also boiling. He used connecting clouds and flew straight at Yan Jiang. Damn it. Lets have a fight first before talking about anything else! After the immortal warlock unlocked its ultimate move, it could use connecting clouds, landing on clouds, cloud marks and positioning to brush out thousand layers of clouds. Hed just shown off the light arcs, and was now about to use thousand layers of clouds. It made everyone in the audience inhale in surprise. Quiet really knows how to play the immortal warlock! Many people recalled his statement on WeiboCCdamn it, could it be that those four demonic IDs actually belonged to him?! The thousand layers of clouds was about to begin, but Wei Xiao abruptly stopped moving. The audience sucked in another breath, ??? Did he fail? He screwed up? Just now, I really thought he could use the immortal warlock. So it turned out that he was just pretending. Soon, a chat box appeared over Wei Xiaos head, Why arent you switching talents? Yan Jiang didnt move. Theres no point in switching. Wei Xiao frowned. You dont have any skill points? Yan Jiang indeed didnt have any skill points, but that wasnt the key point. He knew what the other party was thinking. I dont have the medicine warlock talent. It wasnt that Yan Jiang couldnt solo. If hed chosen the medicine warlock, there wouldnt be a single person on the Sky Island of Light who could kill him. Not even Close. But he hadnt chosen the medicine warlock at all. For his four starting talents, hed chosen all the healing talents that had no DPS and could only heal. Wei Xiao stood still and didnt move. Why didnt you choose the medicine warlock? Yan Jiang: I didnt want to. Wei Xiao stared at him for a while, then suddenly realized. You want to die. Yan Jiang: Just now, Wei Xiaos skills had already landed on Yan Jiang and scraped off half his health. At this moment, knowing that God Yan was determined to die, Wei Xiao kindly gave him two medicine bags, Dont die, you have to live well. My captain is still waiting for you in the finals circle! The author has something to say: God Yan: I want to die. Wei Xiao: No, you dont want to. Chapter 165.1: Wei Xiao: "Dont tempt me." Y1 had been quite distressed about this global invitational game. Theyd been the champions last year and deserved their name as the number one big team in Europe. Reasonably speaking, what was there to be distressed over? However, the person from Y1 who was in charge of this aspect of the team, almost went bald when he received the invitation. He went to look for their team manager and asked, Can Yan participate? Y1s manager was more distressed than he was. Ill ask The person in charge sighed. The invitation has already been sent over. It wont look good if he doesnt participate. Y1s manager understood the big master in their team very well. He should be participating, its just The person in charge was very accommodating for the sake of their common interests, Participating is good enough! Its fine even if he slacks off and does nothing! They really couldnt be blamed for being so careful. Yan Jiang was a person who was very clear on his requirements. When signing his contract, hed put his demands plainly on the paper in black and whiteCChe wouldnt play in the singles competition. Nobody knew why he hated the singles competition so much, but everyone knew that he disliked it. He had disliked it from as early as his FTW days, and he still disliked it after coming to Europe. Back then, when hed first arrived in Europe, he hadnt been on the Y1 team. Instead, hed gone to a powerful team called WP. Yan Jiang had already been famous at the time. His signing bonus had been terrifyingly high, and after WP dug out such a strong ancestor, they naturally wanted to make use of him and earn some money. Unfortunately, when Yan Jiang signed the contract, he said, Im not playing in the singles competition or the doubles competition, but well win the championship in 5v5. WP agreed, but they were ultimately unable to resist the temptation. They insisted on forcing Yan Jiang to attend various performances and show his face. Yan Jiang didnt say much. He went when he was told to, but basically let himself be killed when he went. He made it so that a very normal performance game became filled with sounds of cursing. Fans didnt know the truth of the matter. They just thought that Yan Jiang was purposely taking the competition lightly and flamed him with curses. Yan Jiang didnt explain himself. He didnt say anything else and directly listed himself during the next transfer period. WP was confused. They took out the contract and went looking for him. Yan Jiang pointed to the words that were clearly written in black and white on the contract. The breach of contract was on WPs side. Later on, Yan Jiang went to Y1. The scolding grew even worse. He was just a support player. What was he acting so crazy for? In particular, he was a player from abroad. There was racial discrimination, foreigner discrimination under this heavy pressure, he was literally standing precariously on the tip of the knife. If his mentality was even a tiny bit weaker, then Yan Jiang wouldve become useless due to that period of time. However, he wasnt the average person. He carried all this pressure and led Y1 to win the European Championship. In the face of this abuse and slander that covered the skies, only absolute strength could make people shut up. That season, Yan Jiang became a LEGEND, in capital letters. A support player could also become the core of a team. A support player could also turn the tide. A support player could also become the most dazzling presence in the team. After three years, the Y1 team had formed its own unique style, and Yan Jiang had become the most magical player in Glory. There was one thing that all the players around the world knew privatelyCCthe players in Y1 could be rotated like flowing water, but God Yan was unshakable. Why would they say that? It was because in Y1, any position could be rotated out, and whoever wanted to go up to play could play, but the support player had to be Yan Jiang. With Yan Jiang there, he could lead a group of newcomer cubs and still win the European Championship. The godly support player from the Team of Gods was precisely such an illogical existence. So, Y1 really treated Yan Jiang like their ancestor. Regardless of how the current situation came to be, in short, if Yan Jiang washed his hands of the matter and refused to work, then the Y1 whod just won the world championship last year might possibly fall to the point of becoming a team that had to fight to just remain qualified in the league. They couldnt afford to provoke him. They really couldnt afford it. The manager had already been told countless times before taking up his post: Coax him; only when he was coaxed well, would they be able to live well. Fortunately, Yan Jiang wasnt an unreasonable person. After clarifying the befores and afters of the situation, he said, I can participate. The manager let out a big sigh of relief. Play however you like. Anyway, its just an entertainment game. Yan Jiang was in the midst of staring at the screen and watching a game from some undetermined competition zone, from an undetermined time, under undetermined circumstances. He answered quietly, Okay. He joined the game, but hed chosen four pure healer talents for his four initial talents and used his actions to tell the game planners: Stupid competition system, idiot brawl system. In this type of game mode, what could a pure healer do? Although Yan Jiang was famous as a violent support player, any player who really chose to play support wasnt the type of character that enjoyed fighting alone. It was like that for the singles competition, and it was still the same when it came to the current big brawl mode. The game planners had never considered such players when they designed this game mode. Yan Jiang was taking part in the opening game, but he was just walking through the map. He didnt care about getting first place or not getting first place. What he wanted was to become the first to die after the game began. However He encountered an unexpected accident. The immortal warlock in front of him was still babbling, Although all men must die, their deaths can still be as light as a feather or as heavy as Mount Tai. God Yan, how can you die in such a light, flighty way? You must try hard to die as heavy as Mount Tai in the finals circle There was no voice chat in the big brawl. Players could only type out words. Yan Jiang had experienced this brats hand speed early on, but now he confirmed it for a second time. These densely packed chat boxes showed that not only was his hand speed fast, his mouth was also long-winded. Yan Jiang stared at his ID. You like Close? Wei Xiao didnt even think about it, Of course. He felt a little guilty after saying so, but his guilt only lasted for a fraction of a second, and he soon started to boast, Close, four championship crowns, Glorys strongest player, the China competition zones demon king big daddy, who doesnt like him? Yan Jiang: Wei Xiao could praise his captain so high up into the sky that nobody else could reach him. If it wasnt for the fact that time was limited, he could write a 10,000 word essay. Yan Jiang interrupted his rainbow farts and asked, You really wont kill me? Wei Xiao: I already gave you medicine bags I keep my word. Yan Jiang typed calmly, I picked up six skill points, one half-finished max level equipment This was intended to tempt Wei Xiao. The translation to his words was: Im such a large, fat sheep. Are you not going to slaughter me? Wei Xiao managed to resist. Youre really lucky. Hed killed and looted just to cobble together 12 skill points. Yan Jiang continued, Oh, I also found a special skill on the magic vines. Wei Xiao: ! Yan Jiang aimed straight at the tip of his heart, The special skill is called fury. Using it increases attack power by 50% for three seconds. Wei Xiao: !! Was that possible?? Hed bounced and jumped through so many vines. How come hed never seen a single special skill? A 50% attack increase for three seconds? In that case, wouldnt that mean that if he brushed out eight light arcs, the damage dealt would be comparable to nine light arcs? Seriously, Wei Xiao was tempted. His fingers circled around his skills, and killing intent filled the swamp in an instant. Yan Jiang could feel it. A players posture when they were making small talk and when they were building up power and getting ready to attack was different. He knew that Wei Xiao now had intention to kill. Great, he could get out of the game early. Just as he thought so, the immortal warlock whod just entered a pre-attack state cancelled his skills. Wei Xiao typed, Dont tempt me. Yan Jiang: ? Wei Xiao: Do you see my ID? Take out the most and change it to only. I Like Close The MostCCafter changing it, it became I Only Like Close. Yan Jiang: The audience watching them all burst out laughing. Damn it, Little Lunatic Wei was too good at messing with peoples mentality! Brother Cai barely managed to keep himself from slamming his face into his keyboard in the Gossip Emperors live broadcast room: Wei Little Xiao, can you speak using human language? As someone who knew the truth, he was almost scared into peeing. But he calmed down again once he looked at the scrolling comments. 6666, FTWs flirting king is spreading his branches and leaves again. Brother Xiao is a certified flirt, he keeps lovers in all directions. He goes and toys with God Yan while keeping the I Like Close The Most ID hanging over his head. Quiet, make sure you dont getCC Calling the great demon king, your head is a little green. Whats the most painful thing in life? Having the CP that I ship stand on the side of the evil cults! Bai Cai was relieved. Good Wei Xiao could go and act in a fable. Thats right, it was ! Yan Jiang ignored Wei Xiao and turned to leave. Wei Xiao was very agile. He used landing on clouds and arrived in front of him. Captain Yan. Mm. Youre not going to go tempt someone else, right? I mean, find someone else to kill you. Yan Jiang breathed lightly and maintained his self-restraint. Wei Xiaos eyes curved, but the words he typed out could only be called arrogant, Lets make a bet. Yan Jiangs footsteps paused. Wei Xiao: I can guarantee that no one can seriously hurt you while were in the Moonlight Wetland. Yan Jiang stopped and turned to look at him. Wei Xiao was clearly using an immortal warlock who was famous for its aloof coldness, but he somehow managed to play out the temperament of a careless young man. If you fall below half health, Ill kill you myself. If you remain above half health, then come to the finals circle with me. Yan Jiangs eyes narrowed slightly. Why. Wei Xiao: The opponents are too crappy. Im finding some fun for myself. The audience in the studio: .. Fortunately the players in Moonlight Wetland couldnt see this chat conversation that had been limited to a very small range. As long as anyone saw even a word of it, they would rush up and chop Wei Xiao to death. Chapter 165.2: This was the first time that anyone had spoken these words to Yan Jiang. Wei Xiaos bet was really fierce and really crazy. There were three stages in the Sky Island of Light. The first stage was the outer five zones, and after the five outer zones was the second stage, also known as the Central Zone. The Central Zone was smaller in size, and players would encounter other players whod killed their way out of the zones nearby. It marked the start of an even more exciting confrontation. The ring of light was shrinking, resources were tight, and everyone who remained living were strong players. The fighting was extremely fierce. The Central Zone was then compressed to a core area, which was the final circle. It was basically a round arena, and there was nothing to do but to fight directly when they met. There was nowhere to hide. Wei Xiaos guarantee that Yan Jiang wouldnt fall under half health in the Moonlight Wetland was a very crazy promise. Besides, there were two other invited professional players in the Moonlight Wetland, three top anchors who might still be alive, and there might also be professional players mixed in with the remaining lucky players. One needed enough strength just to get out of the Moonlight Wetland. As for bringing along a dead weight? How was that finding fun? It was clearly going from difficult mode to hell mode. However It was very interesting. Yan Jiang: If my health remains above 70%, Ill send you six pieces of completed equipment in the Central Zone. Wei Xiao was amused, Okay. At this stage in the game, there were allied groups in all the zones. However, forming alliances wasnt necessarily a good thing. Firstly, it was just a verbal agreement, and the players could stab their teammates in the back at any time. Secondly, skills were blind. If they werent controlled well in a 2v1 environment, it would become a real brawl. Killing teammates by accident would be a normal occurrence. The alliance between Wei Xiao and Yan Jiang could be regarded as the most magical combination in the entire game. God Yan, a man who could only heal himself. Wei Xiao, who not only had to finish fights quickly, but also had to be careful that his attacks didnt stab Yan Jiang to death. No matter how one looked at them, Wei Xiaos part in the alliance was thankless, and it was a completely one-sided effort. It was Yan Jiang being protected, and Wei Xiao putting in the effort. There were those who didnt know the truth and were curious, Is this God Yans fanboy? A God Yan fanboy who had I Like Close The Most hanging over his head? How fickle was his heart?! Was there anyone in the whole world who didnt know that Close and Yan Jiang were kings who lived out their lives separately from each other? The audience in the China competition zone understood very clearly. Quiet has deep foresight. Packing Yan Jiang up and sending him to Close? Yeah. Was that it? Then theyd be really looking down on the One Lamp Grandmaster. The Moonlight Wetland attracted more and more attention. Originally, the game organizers had worried that Yan Jiangs idleness would mean that nobody would watch this zone, but unexpectedly, as soon as they looked at the traffic data behind the scenes The most popular zone was Falling Star Lake, followed by the Moonlight Wetland. There was no need to mention Falling Star Lake. Close had opened up slaughter mode and it was like watching a feel good, badass script. Anyone who watched it would feel excited! What did it mean for a single overlord to rise up and snowball his farm? A mere 20 people in Falling Star Lake werent enough for him to abuse. Money had already taken off his headphones and become a member of the audience. The organizers had decided to act inhuman all the way until the end. Theyd even opened up a field of death, and all the players whod died in Sky Island were placed there. An online host had been arranged for them there so that they could interview them on the spot. The host had been waiting for Money since early on. As soon as they saw the corpse lying on its back, they leaned over. May I ask, how does it feel to die under your male gods blade? Money: To hell with your male god! Oh, how could this ID of his belong to a mere Close fanboy? It was the type of little fanboy whod gone down the wrong path. Captain Mo wanted to close himself up. What had he been aiming for?! What exactly had he been going for?! 20,000 dollars worth of gifts in exchange for this shameless damned account. After making a shameful debut in the domestic competition zone, hed then gone to the big brawl and turned into a box as soon as he landed. He, Money, didnt need his dignity anymore! CCOld Lu had gone too far. Given how theyd been students together, couldnt he have taken it easier on him?! No, he really couldnt. Money was rich and shiny. If the great demon king didnt kill him, hed really be unable to live up to all those gold coins that hed picked up. The Falling Star Lake was dominated by a single person. Everyone shivered and trembled under the great demon kings rule. The Moonlight Wetland was in a different situation. The professional players all understood that the Team of Gods would be split up, and on this side, there was a specifically invited player that Wei Xiao knew. It was Ayu, from the double snipers team in the Korean competition zone. This player was known as the Little God Kim in the Korean competition zone. His storm hunter was godly, and he was very much able to show off. Previously, during the winter training camp, Wei Xiao had played against them in the doubles competition. Their crap combination had been caught off guard and beaten up quite miserably. Now that theyd accidentally run into each other, Wei Xiao recognized him, but Ayu didnt know who he was. All Ayu saw was Yan Jiang. His eyes lit up, and he thought hed found treasure! Ayu wasnt the only one who thought so. It was likely that all the players in Moonlight Wetland would be happy when they saw God Yan. Who didnt know about this? God Yan didnt like the singles competition. He was only participating to give face to the competition committee. To encounter Yan Jiang out of the five people from the Team of Gods was good news from heaven. Compared with the other four zones, especially Falling Star Lake, Moonlight Wetland was like a paradise! Ayu was using the storm hunter. Wei Xiao hadnt switched to his shadow thief and flew over directly in his immortal warlock form. The storm hunter and immortal warlock both belonged to c-position talents that could really show off their damage. Their survival ability and ability to deal DPS were both very high. When it came to soloing with these talents, it relied completely on the players personal level. Wei Xiaos personal level It was time for everyone to see what the grandmasters thousand layers of clouds was like! At first sight, this was clearly a lucky players ID. The storm hunter didnt pay them much attention and was only wary of Yan Jiang, who was in the distance. He was afraid that he might switch to a medicine warlock and send him out of the game. And then Ayus heart was filled with f*ck me! What the hell was this? Where did this godly immortal come from? Their immortal warlock was so fierce! The unfortunate players from other competition zones didnt know that the player with this shameless ID was actually Quiet. If theyd gotten even the tiniest hint, then they wouldnt have taken the situation so lightly. The immortal warlock started with connecting clouds, then cloud mark. A set of combo skills covered the heavens and the earth, aiming at the storm hunter and forcing him to evade in a panic. Ever since hed gotten abused in the winter training camp, Ayu had been training hard after returning home. He performed well during the entire regular season and now wanted to show the world what he could do during this opening game! He couldnt get beaten up like this by an ordinary player. Ayu calmed down quickly and tried to interrupt the immortal warlocks skills. Special techniques like the thousand layers of clouds had to be set up step by step. Its difficulty level was much lower than the nine light arcs, but it was still a very strong technique. Ayus storm hunter had a very big advantage. As long as he could move flexibly and avoid even one of the immortal warlocks cloud marks, he could make the thousand layers of clouds disappear like a soap bubble. You wanted to brush out thousand layers of clouds? He wasnt just a wooden training dummy. He wouldnt let the opponent achieve it just like that! Ayu stepped on raindrops and moved very nimbly. It looked like he was about to shake off the cloud mark But the immortal warlock seemed to see through his path. A cloud mark swept over, catching Ayu by surprise. By the time he tried to retreat, hed already hit a cloud mark. This! How strong! This was by no means the level of play belonging to an ordinary player! Ayu was shocked, and the audience who were watching the live broadcast were even more surprised. Quiets immortal warlock is even stronger than Ning Zhehans. Upstairs, dont trample on others. Our FTWs cubs are all very strong. This thousand layers of clouds has really been stacked up skillfully! I dont know why, but it holds a shadow of Xie He. Its not Xie He, its Close. Holy shit Quiets immortal warlock was very similar to Closes. And the fans were all clear about Closes attributes. That unreasonable ability to replicate and reproduce all the play styles and micro habits of all the peak players. What kind of feng shui did FTW have? Coming up with one great demon king, followed by a little demon? When they saw this immortal warlock who was showing off all the way to the heavens, nobody doubted One Lamp Grandmasters ability anymore. Calling him a jungler king was really unfair to him. He was simply an all-rounder king! Ayus screen darkened. His expression was filled with disbelief. CCI Like Close The Most, who exactly was that? Someone in the field of death explained the situation to him, Its FTWs jungler, called Quiet. Hes very strong. The discontent that had originally filled Ayus heart all disappeared. In that moment, he was very zen: Oh, it turned out to be him. Wei Xiao killed the storm hunter easily, but he sucked in a breath as soon as he turned back. In front of the withered branches and rotten leaves, three figures were now charging towards the holy priest who was bathed in white light. Wei Xiao didnt have time to pick up the equipment. He first picked up the skill points, then switched talents. The agile storm hunter stepped on raindrops and flew over. The raindrops made a bridge, and each step was steady and accurate. Almost in the blink of an eye, the storm hunter had arrived in front of the holy priest. Then, he switched talents again, and the storm hunter whod been agile and light a moment ago was suddenly covered with a bloody mist. The bloodthirsty blood warrior who appeared was covered in heavy armor as he stabbed his scarlet sword into the ground. The light from his sword was stern and spectacular. Wei Xiao stood up straight with his sword in hand, Stand back. Yan Jiang: Hed played in six global competitions, but this was the first time that anyone had spoken these words to Yan Jiang. Chapter 166.1: Sure enough, it was great watching beasts screw up. The blood warrior was a great general who could hold a mountain pass against 10,000 people on his own. After dying in battle, he became even more bloodthirsty and fierce. In particular, Wei Xiaos switch from the storm hunter to the blood warrior talent carried a very strong visual impact. The fierceness of the audiences mockery of Wei Xiaos four starting talents at the start was now equal to how awestruck they felt now. How cool! The cold shadow thief, the fairy-like immortal warlock, the light and agile storm hunter, and the aggressive and overbearing blood warrior. There were contrasts everywhere, and watching it was very inspiring no matter what talent he switched to! Without mentioning the audience, even the players across from them were muddled. This person didnt have a team name ID. There was a flying warrior, a berserker thief, and a death knight. The numbers after their ID were all 4, which meant that at the very least, their current talent specs had fully unlocked skills. As for their other talents Not everyone was as murderous as Wei Little Xiao, and being able to start unlocking their third talents skills was already going up against the heavens. Of course, Wei Xiao hadnt yet unlocked all the skills for all four of his talents. Hed only clicked open the storm hunters first skill, while his shadow thief, immortal warlock, and blood warrior were all fully unlocked. 3v1, and he also had to ensure that Yan Jiang wasnt injured. This situation seemed a bit difficult. The live broadcast room was noisy and lively, Does anyone know the details for these three people? Im not sure. Were not clear about the situation for the other competition zones. It was just like how the audience in the other competition zones hadnt known about Closes heavenly group in advance. As long as the gossip from the other competition zones wasnt about god level players, the regular audience naturally wouldnt be very clear about it. Of course, when it came to such details, they could find out if they wanted to. Wei Xiao was going up one against three, but he didnt back down at all. While the other side was still in a daze, he used a blood stab to split the air, aiming at the berserker thief who had the lowest health among the three! These three opponents were all using top solo talents, and each and every one of them were good fighters. If Wei Xiao didnt take the initiative, there might really be a chance that hed screw up. The blood stab accurately landed on the berserker thiefs chest, and a blood mark flickered over his head. Wei Xiao waited until they started to move, then used blood cut in a semicircular attack. Blood stab was a single target attack, while blood cut was an AOE skill. The three people were standing close to each other. They were all hit, and they all suffered from the rend effect. This series of actions were executed extremely quickly, within a single second. Seeing that Wei Xiao was accumulating power, these three people finally started recovering their wits. Damn it! What was going on with this blood warrior! It was one against three, yet he didnt run. Was he trying to get a triple kill?! If Wei Xiao could hear their thoughts, there was a high chance that he would type out the line: I really do want to. Although these three players were lucky players, they were still big gods who were famous in the casual ranked game circle. Even if there was a wall between casual player kings and professional players, it was impossible for the three of them to be bullied by a single person. They were much more experienced than the two whod formed an alliance earlier on. The three of them spread out to avoid hurting their teammates by mistake, and they also gave themselves enough room to avoid Wei Xiaos skills. Wasnt it just a blood warrior? It was a short-ranged melee talent. The berserker thief and death knights range were longer than the blood warriors and they also had a flying warrior who could use his great mobility to add damage. Killing him would be a piece of cake. The commentator sighed. At this time, the advantages of Quiets four talent choices becomes clear. The blood warrior switched talents again. The bloody red fog turned white, and the immortal warlock drifted down. The team of three: ! First it was the storm hunter, then the blood warrior, and now the immortal warlock? What the hell? At this point, the three people naturally had no way to communicate with each other. Even so, there was no need to type as they all had the same idea: Dont panic. This person may have Close in his name, but he wasnt actually Close after all. Across the whole Glory circle, there couldnt be anyone else who could master these three talents at the same time, so this player had to be fishing in muddy waters! And then, they were slapped in the face by a thousand layers of clouds. In the end, they were still casual players. Coupled with their initial carelessness, they grew desperate. The flying warriors hand shook, and he switched to his own support talent. His health had dropped to 50%. It seemed that switching to his support talent to heal himself wasnt a bad idea. However A support talent had no DPS! Wei Xiao finished using all the skills on his immortal warlock and happened to arrive near the berserker thief. The immortal warlock switched to the storm hunter and used an arrow to take away the berserker thiefs life. At the same time, rain covered the area within ten yards as he stepped on raindrops and arrived in front of the death knight. The death knight reacted quickly and switched to his heavy form that had higher defense The storm hunter switched to the blood warrior again. Wei Xiao used the phantom skill and struck from the front and back, his bloody sword stabbing through the death knights armor causing scarlet blood to gush out from the wound. Although Wei Xiao appeared to be suppressing his three opponents and beating them up with such a flashy talent rotation and all sorts of skills that could be used at will, hed also been injured in the fight. The berserker thief and death knights skills were at least able to scratch him, and it was inevitable that he would be injured no matter what. Not to mention, he also had to protect Yan Jiang, who was standing behind him, and ensure that he wasnt harmed by any ranged skills. Wei Xiaos health had dropped down to 60%, but when he and his phantom stabbed the death knight at the same time, his HP began to rise up again. Once the blood warrior and his phantom hit the same target at the same time, the phantom could convert the damage dealt into health and return it to his master. The death knight fell, and Wei Xiao was once again at full health. On the withered branches, the flying warrior whod switched back to his attack talent had a face full of confusion. Shit. Where had this immortal come from?! Ah The flying warrior knew that it was hopeless, so he gave up treatment and simply typed out a word of mourning. Wei Xiao used a blood stab to send him away, then replied to him, Take care. Flying warrior: The death knight whod died one step ahead of him also began to howl, I havent even stepped out of the Moonlight Wetland yet! Berserker thief: Winning the lottery wasnt easy! Flying warrior: QwQ! Wei Xiao glanced at the holy priest who was still healthy and whole. He typed: Who told you guys to have a go at God Yan? The three: ??? Yan Jiang: The flying warrior was filled with grievances. We only wanted to take a photo with God Yan! Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment. The berserker thief continued, Yeah, yeah, its not easy to meet God Yan. We just wanted to commemorate the moment. Wei Xiao turned his head to look at Yan Jiang. Yan Jiang didnt refute it. Before Wei Xiao rushed over, they had indeed had such a series of conversations. Wei Xiao blinked, then comforted them, Its okay, its not too late to do it now. Quickly take a screenshot. The team of three corpses: To hell with your screenshot! What kind of f*cking yin and yang photo was this?! Who would want such a miserable photo of their deaths?! After lying there as a corpse for 30 seconds, they were all sent to the field of death Great. They didnt even manage to get a yin and yang photo. Wei Xiao came over to Yan Jiangs side. Captain Yan, youre very popular. Yan Jiang: They had nothing to fear. Theyd felt that they would definitely be able to kill him. Wei Xiao: Thats true. When they see Close, they definitely wouldnt dare to take a group photo with him. Forget about even taking a screenshot, they might as well jump into the swamp and commit suicide. Yan Jiang: Wei Xiao was very keen and noticed that Yan Jiang was ignoring him. He continued, Im not stepping on you, Im just telling the truth. Yan Jiang walked faster. Unfortunately, the immortal warlocks movement skills were even faster. As for Closes popularity The rest of the sentence was implicit. Yan Jiang: If you keep talking nonsense, the bet agreement will be void. Wei Xiao: Okay, okay, okay, I wont talk about it anymore. The Moonlight Wetland opened up a mode of flying chickens and jumping dogs. The basic routine went like thisCC When they encountered the enemy, their opponents would be overjoyed when they saw God Yan. Wei Xiao would rush over with his casual player identity and slaughter them until nothing was left. Slowly, the audience also started to sense somethingCC How subtle, God Yan is a dazzling and eye-catching piece of fat bait. Little Lunatic Weis really capable. He even dares to use God Yan as a chess piece. What chess piece? Hes a tender flower! Quiet is a flower protector! Isnt Kim Sung-hyun the tender flower? Oh, the real tender flower was currently still closed up in the maze. Bai Cai understood what Wei Xiao was thinking. His live broadcast room remained on Wei Xiaos perspective, and he could see everything that Little Lunatic Wei was doing. Wei Xiao protecting Yan Jiang like this was all for their captain. Even the current FTW wasnt very clear about the grievances between the former FTW players. But there was one thing that they could be sure aboutCCthe accounts that had to be settled between them all wouldnt be easy to balance. During this season, Lu Feng would definitely compete against Yuan Ze, Xie He, and Kim Sung-hyun in the global singles finals, but he wouldnt meet Yan Jiang. If fate was on their side, they may meet in 5v5, but there was no chance in the singles. The opening game was likely to be the only chance for a fight between Close and Yan Jiang. Even though Wei Xiao knew that Yan Jiang had no intention to fight at this time, he still wanted to pack up and send this gift to the captain. If he seized every possible opportunity, then there would be no such thing as being unable to balance things out. Brother Cai understood Wei Xiao, but he couldnt bear to look directly at the scene. Wei Little Xiao, should you be called smart or not? By the time they arrived in the finals circle, wouldnt the God Yan whod learned the truth blow up? When they went over the game replay after the opening game, wouldnt the captain be jealous? Ummm When Brother Cai thought about that potential scene, he unexpectedly felt a kind of fascinated pleasure. Sure enough, it was great watching beasts screw up. Chapter 166.2: Tigers were most afraid of tigers who played at being pigs to eat tigers. With God Yan advertising himself as a giant piece of bait, Wei Xiao slaughtered his way through the Moonlight Wetland. Not only did he complete all four of his talents, he also built up three half-finished pieces of equipment. The resources available in the five outer zones was limited. There were basically no full pieces of equipment, only half-finished pieces, and even then, the drop rate was very low. Wei Xiao was too murderous, resulting in bad luck. All of the equipment he obtained had been snatched up from his opponents, and it hadnt been easy for him to cobble together three half-finished pieces. Equipment could only be traded in for equipment at the same level, so low level equipment could only be tossed away Captain Yan, heres a pair of speed boots. Take this ebony staff. This light armor isnt bad, either. Put it on. Are the shin guards a little heavy? Your bodys not good enough. Yan Jiang: Am I a trash can? Wei Xiao sent a smiley face, Im protecting your HP. Yan Jiang: Its better if you give me the half-finished equipment. Wei Xiao: What are you thinking? How can I protect you without them? Yan Jiang: If God Yan had been in Group A during the winter training camp, he wouldnt have tried to reason with Quiet. Wei Xiao had opened up slaughter mode in the Moonlight Wetland, but because he also had to protect a holy priest on the way, his speed was a bit slower than the rest. By the time they reached the edge of the Moonlight Wetland, they encountered an invited player whod rushed through the whole way. There were three invited players in the Moonlight Wetland. One was Yan Jiang, one was Ayu, and the third was the spirit mage in front of them, Edward. This player was quite well known, and he was accompanied by two other players, both of whom were well-known anchors. The terrain grew smoother as they neared the inner circle. The color of the marsh lightened, and there were traces of how the Moonlight Wetland had gained the moonlight part of its name. A big moon hung far away in the sky. It wasnt like the small jade plate-sized moon in the real world, but a huge moon that covered half the sky. The huge silver and white ball of light looked like an eye that was peeping into the world. The light it gave off was very strong, but it wasnt as bright as the sun that could light up the sky and earth. Instead, it was a cold white that always brought with it gloom and fog. The beams of light refracted in the air, reflecting off the dust and filth. Under the huge moon, Wei Xiao saw Edward, and Edward also noticed Yan Jiang. Both sides stopped at the same time, their intentions obvious. Edward didnt pay any attention to Wei Xiao at all. His eyes were locked on Glorys number one support. Wei Xiao estimated the three peoples fighting power, his eyes filling up with murderous energy. This may be Wei Xiaos most critical battle. If he won, he could smoothly take Yan Jiang out of the Moonlight Wetland. But if he lost, well, he would have to kill Yan Jiang first. If his captain couldnt obtain something, then nobody else should think of getting it either. They didnt waste time with nonsense. A battle was imminent! At this time, Wei Xiao was in his immortal warlock form. The other side had a spirit mage, a berserker warrior, and an immortal thief. No matter how they looked at it, it seemed that Wei Xiao would be DEAD in capital letters. The immortal warlock was squishy and had low defense. It wasnt suited for group fights. Thousand layers of clouds was a single target attack. Even if the damage dealt was high, only one person could be killed with it. When the player landed back on the ground, they could only wait to be beaten and killed. It wasnt like the shadow thiefs light arcs, which dealt explosive damage over a large range. Even if the damage could be divided up between teammates or evaded by relying on positioning, it was still a very strong wave of damage. Edward and the others really didnt place any importance on Wei Xiaos immortal warlock. If his default talent was the immortal warlock, then it was almost guaranteed that his other talents would also be mage talents. Edward himself was an excellent mid-laner. Based on his understanding of mid-lane heroes, he wasnt afraid of anyone except Xie He and Close! The immortal warlock had the advantage when it came to flexibility. Edward didnt want Wei Xiao to run off, so he typed out a sentence: Kill the immortal warlock first! As long as God Yan didnt take the medicine warlock talent, he was just a tasty dessert. If he had chosen the medicine warlock, the three of them could still manage to kill him after taking turns attacking one after another. Edwards plan was logical and reasonable, and his brain was very tactical. However The audience in the live broadcast: Fellow brothers, lets all type out our heartache on the public screen. Heartache. Heartache. A questioning voice mixed in with the screen filled with heartache: Is Quiet so strong? These three arent ordinary players Earlier, everyone had watched as Quiet fought one against three. They acknowledged Quiets strength. However, those three had been casual players. Could they be compared with a professional player and game anchors? They were also a group of three, but the strength of these three people was enough to toss the other threes corpses two blocks away. Someone in the audience answered, But the problem is that these three look down on Quiet. The audience whod asked the question: They got it. Tigers werent afraid of tigers, but were most afraid of tigers who played at being pigs to eat tigers. Edward looked down on Wei Xiao and wanted to kill him with one attack. Underestimating his enemy like this was no different from a chance from heaven descending on Wei Xiao. QuietCChe was a famous opportunist in Glory. How could he miss this opportunity? The immortal warlock fell from the clouds, gathering them together, and smashed a full set of cloud marks onto his body. Edward sneered inwardly: He really had some skills to be able to form an alliance with God Yan. Unfortunately, he could only wait for death when he landed after his thousand layers of clouds. Wei Xiao brushed up his thousand layers of clouds. Meanwhile, the immortal thief beside Edward rushed up and took all the damage. The thousand layers of clouds was a single target attack that would only target the nearest unit. Its target couldnt be locked manually, so the immortal thief became its first target. Was the immortal thief looking to die? Was this host selflessly sacrificing himself for Edward? Of course not! The immortal thiefs ultimate move was the ten thousand sword volley. Once it was used, there would be an automatic reduction in damage taken, and this thousand layers of clouds only shaved off half of his health. The three players cooperated very well together. After the immortal thief retreated, the immortal thief switched to a support talent to heal himself, and the berserker warrior rushed up boldly and resolutely. It looked like he was going to send Wei Xiao flying. After the immortal warlock used thousand layers of clouds, there would be an empty period where all of his skills were on cooldown and no skills could be released. If these two axes landed, the squishy immortal warlock would almost instantly become a spirit heading back to the West. Edward felt that the situation was stable and had already shifted his attention to Yan Jiang. But unexpectedly, in the next moment, the humidity rose up sharply and countless raindrops shimmered into existence around them. The immortal thief and the berserker warrior were both stunned for a moment. When they returned to their senses, they saw a storm hunter stepping on raindrops like an agile elf, charging towards the immortal thief who was at half health. The immortal thiefs support talent was the type that healed over time. His health was currently rising back up slowly, but at this time, the rain grew sharp edges and shot straight at his face. He was currently a clumsy support talent with low mobility and had no way to avoid the attack. Swish, swish, swish! There were several consecutive swishing sounds as sharp arrows pierced through the immortal thiefs throat. Blood poured out! The immortal thief panicked and attempted to switch talents to try to escape, but hed made a big, huge, giant mistake. His support talent was already his talent with the highest defense. By switching to the thief at this time, hed lost his defense bonus, and his health dropped even faster. Another rain arrow shot over. Wei Xiao killed the immortal thief! After one of the members of their team died, Edward and the berserker warrior were both left in a daze. This player, whom theyd originally thought would be easy to kill, ended up being such a difficult opponent? And what the hell kind of dog fart combination was the immortal warlock and storm hunter?! But this was just the beginning. Wei Xiao scattered raindrops again and easily arrived in front of the spirit mage. Edwards expression was heavy even as he tossed out his skills. It was easy for him to kill a storm hunter whod already used up all his skills in the air. Unfortunately, Wei Xiao only intended to use the storm hunter to approach Edward. When he landed, there were no signs of the storm hunter anymore. Under his black hood was a cold and pale jaw. His red blade flashed, aiming a shadow attack at Edwards back! Edward sucked in a breath of cold air. Shadow thief?! These words were shouted into his headset. The berserker warrior noticed that something wasnt right. He left Edward behind and started to run. As a shadow thief, Wei Xiao only needed half a second to kill the spirit mage after he approached it. Thieves with their high explosive DPS had a natural advantage against mages, let alone when there was a big difference in equipment between the two. The fact that their personal levels werent much different didnt play much of a role. Edward didnt even know what had happened even after he died. Wei Xiao used two movement skills to rush up, wanting to prevent the berserker warrior from running away. Unexpectedly, this fellow brother was very cowardly. He hadnt moved this quickly even during the fight, but was clearly able to run like crazy when it came to running away. He couldnt catch up Wei Xiao felt that it was a pity, but there was nothing he could do. This was what the big brawl was like. Fighting was very important, but escaping was also a critical subject that had to be learned. If strategic retreats were implemented well, then the player could reach the final circle. The berserker warrior also felt that he could slip away. It hadnt been easy for him to participate in such a global event, and he didnt want it to come to an end here. If he was going to escape, he was going to aim for the Central Zone! Being able to see a little more was better than nothing! Who couldve known A wall of light blocked his way. The berserker warrior bumped into it head on. There was a bang as he smashed himself into a daze. Wei Xiao: ! Yan Jiang didnt say anything as he used another series of control skills on the berserker warriors body. What are you doing standing there in a daze. Wei Xiao tsked. He rushed up the remaining few steps and killed the berserker warrior whod been controlled until he was dizzy! At the same time, the moon fell, the aura contracted, and Wei Xiao and Yan Jiang entered the Central Zone. Yan Jiangs health was stable and steady at 80%. Let alone getting seriously hurt, he was still close to full health. Wei Xiao: I won. The Central Zone was different from the Moonlight Wetland. It was covered with extremely strong beams of light that had thoroughly cleared out the haze. Yan Jiang looked at the shadow thief in front of him: His dark cloak was dyed with holy light, his pale skin carried traces of warmth. This was clearly one of his most hated talents, but looking at now, it didnt seem so annoying. He typed, You won. The dialog box above the two people hadnt yet disappeared when another system announcement came outCC Central Zone: First Blood! Central Zone: FTW.Close killed L&P.Gary. In the five outer zones, First Blood had been Closes. Now, in the Central Zone, First Blood was still Closes. He killed the person who was last years singles player runner up and starter jungler for the team competitions runner up team L&P: Gary! xiin: (Wei Xiaos First Blood will also be Closes?) Chapter 167.1: He was cowering to the point hed made it a characteristic. When Wei Xiao saw this announcement, his reaction was, F*ck, how strong! His eyes grew brighter. Yan Jiang glanced over at him and said nothing. On the other hand, Old G was really miserable. Hed originally been in the same outer zone as Close, in Falling Star Lake. Close had opened up slaughter mode all across Falling Star Lake, but Old G hadnt fallen behind by much. The two of them had pushed all the way to the Central Zone, one from the east, and the other from the west. After leaving the outer zones, the players from the same zone would be squeezed into the same area. Old G had filled up the screen like crazy with his Martian text, Whereis Close, oO Laozi has come to kill you oo! After brushing out two or three lines, Gary successfully summoned the great demon king. And then The great demon king happily collected First Blood. Seriously. Gary had made great contributions to Close obtaining First Blood. Getting First Blood in the Central Zone was different from getting it in the five outer zones. There was an element of luck in the outer zones. If a player landed in a zone like the Shining Gold Temple, they wouldnt see another living person for half the game. Even Close would have to give up on getting First Blood. Of course, the Shining Gold Temple was relatively safe. Each zone had its own advantages and disadvantages. Getting First Blood in the Central Zone had little to do with luck. Whoever made their way to the Central Zone first would have the biggest chance of obtaining First Blood. Those who could enter the Central Zone were all experts in all aspects. They were able to run away if they couldnt win, and also had sufficient skill and experience to kill directly when they could. It only took two minutes for Close to kill Gary. It wasnt because Gary was a crappy player; it was that Gary hadnt even thought of running and had insisted on fighting. The big brawl mode wasnt like the previous singles competition mode where players met in a narrow canyon and could continue fighting after dying. Here, one fight determined life or death. Losing was losing, and winning was winning. The emphasis wasnt purely on PK. Old G was still in a trance when he arrived at the field of death, Did I die just liek that??  Most people couldnt understand Chinese, but some of them could. Money, who had Close Has Great Skills hanging over his head, picked up the conversation, God G? Gary saw his ID and first typed out a word to show respect, F*CK! Money: Gary tested, A Close fan? (The following Martian text has been automatically translated into normal text) Moneys lips twitched. No. Then whats with your name? Money, whod explained himself countless times since arriving in the field of death, gave upCC Yes, yes, yes, he was a Close fan, a fan who was greedy for Closes skills, okay?! People who had died wouldnt be given time on the screen. The Central Zone was currently noisy and bustling. The ring of light had shrunk down to the central ring area, and nearly three fifths of the area had already been cut off. There was no longer any strange terrain, and the dazzling lights lit everything up. It was clearly telling the playersCCfight, quickly fight and beat each other up! Wei Xiao was still praising Close. Yan Jiang typed, Are you going to the final circle or not. Wei Xiao missed his captain to death. He immediately said, Going! He wanted to go and meet him quickly, and hed give him a big kiss when they met. A really big one! It was only at this time that Wei Xiao and Yan Jiangs bet finally showed its power. What was an alliance? Was it the several people who seemed to be working together and appeared to be more on guard against their own teammates than their opponents? Of course not. A real alliance was based on cooperation! In the big brawl, skills were blind. How could they cooperate? Wei Xiao and Yan Jiang could. After they entered the Central Zone, the audience who were watching the live broadcast finally understood. Holy shit, so thats how it is! Quiet is so badass! Your God Yan is still God Yan this skill accuracy is as high as 100%! No wonder God Yan said that hed send him six pieces of fully completed gear. This is a piece of cake. In the Moonlight Wetland, Wei Xiao had enough strength to protect Yan Jiang as they charged out, but in the Central Zone, if he needed to continue protecting Yan Jiang, he might not even be able to touch the edge of the finals circle. So, hed proposed that as long as he could protect Yan Jiang in the outer one, then they would head to the final circle together. Who said that four healer talents were useless? When matched up with a DPS king who had picked out a full set of attack talents, it was absolutely the best, okay?! The first group of people they encountered in the Central Zone Yan Jiang raised his hand, and the holy priest was shrouded in light which turned into a door as soon as it landed, steadily trapping three layers within it. These three players were all high level players. They were muddled as soon as they saw Yan Jiang and thought to themselves: What is God Yan trying to do? It didnt matter how long he controlled them for, it wasnt as though he could kill them. And then A wisp of clouds floated over, and the immortal warlocks elegant figure rushed over. Skills smashed into them endlessly, cloud marks stacking up en masse. Thousand layers of clouds dropped down from the sky and caught them unprepared. The three of them: F*ck! How was that possible?! The light door would only keep them shackled for one second, and it wasnt a strong control skill that prevented them from moving completely. The three players quickly hit back, wanting to kill the immortal warlock once he landed. Unexpectedly, theyd just started moving when a light wall smashed down. The positioning was precise, as though it had been pre-positioned. The accuracy of the control skill was divine. At this time, the three people still had the thought that it was just a lucky move. Dont panic, the immortal warlock is out of skills. The next thousand layers of clouds will take at least 30 seconds Wei Xiao switched talents even before the effects from the thousand layers of clouds dispersed. The storm hunters jade pot spilled, filling the air with rain. He started stepping on raindrops with a deadly precision enough to make people feel numb. Swish, swish, swish! Countless arrows hit the three people head on, leaving them instantly seriously injured. What made peoples scalps go numb was that when the light wall faded away, Yan Jiang had already switched to another talent. The elemental shamans earth prison totem rose up from the ground. What did it mean to be controlled until one entered seclusion? These three were doubting life! Wei Xiao won three kills, making his score race ahead like crazy. He crushed Xie He and returned to second place. First place was Close, second place was I Like Close The Most. Even the straight men in the China competition zone were excited. After looking at it for a long time, these toxic IDs seem very attractive! Wei Xiao slaughtered his way through the Central Zone. Towards the end, he commented, Captain Yan, you really leave people with a lack of game experience. Yan Jiang followed his brain circuits. Is it them or you whos lacking game experience? Wei Xiao: Of course its me! Yan Jiangs control skills were too fierce. He had amazing judgement and as much accuracy as a hack. It was likely that anyone who was controlled by him would go into seclusion. Hed chosen four healers as his starting talents. These talents didnt have any DPS skills, and the rules for the big brawl made it clear that all healing skills could only be used on the player themselves, while control skills could be used on their opponents. All support talents had one or two control skills in addition to their healing skills. A good support player not only had to heal people, but also had to control enemies. Yan Jiang wasnt just a good support, he was a god level support. There was nobody in the whole of Glory who didnt respect his control abilities. He could control anyone, and nobody could run from him. He started fights perfectly every time, giving his teammates enough fault tolerance. Why was it said that any starter position in Y1 could be changed? It was because there was a captain who could provide such precise control. Even a chicken pecking at the keyboard could deal amazing DPS (an exaggerated metaphor). Wei Xiaos bet had been a great plan: In the short term, he could coax Yan Jiang and prevent him from dying early while finding some fun for himself so that the Moonlight Wetland wasnt so boring. In the long term, he could kill his way through the Central Zone, seize fully completed equipment, and prepare for the final circle. Of course, the most important thing was sending Captain Yan to his own captain so that he could vent his anger if he wanted to, or if he wasnt angry, then at least make use of his skills. The special skill fury was something that lingered in Wei Xiaos mind. An 80% increase in damage, tsk Ten light arcs, understand? The Central Zone was also divided into districts, but it wasnt as clear as it was in the outer zones and was defined by distance. For example, Wei Xiaos Moonlight Wetland and Closes Falling Star Lake were diagonally across from each other. Unless the players circled around, it would be difficult for them to encounter each other before they entered the final circle. Wei Xiao wouldnt intentionally circle around the map to find his captain. The Central Zone wasnt as leisurely as the Moonlight Wetland, and the ring shrank very quickly. Players who didnt walk in a straight line were likely to die outside the ring, negating all their efforts. With the control god Yan Jiang there, Wei Xiaos killing grew more and more frenzied. It was to the point where he asked, Do you believe that I can kill the gold hunter in front of us with one hand? Yan Jiang: The audience who could see their chat boxes filled up the scrolling comments with: Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha Quiet is being inhuman! Upstairs, wake up, when has Quiet ever acted human. Holy shit, fellow brothers, that gold hunter is Eurostar! Exactly the gold hunter who had the ID Close Is Very Strong really was TPTs little coward Eurostar-star. Eurostar was really miserable. Hed shivered and trembled the whole way through the Thousand Needle Forest. There was a Xie He and a Moonlit. Eurostar was like a chicken who was being strangled by the throat, and he didnt even dare to breathe too hard. He was really cowering, cowering to the limit, cowering to the point hed made it a characteristic, and cowering to the point his fans all felt heartache and were wiping away tears for him. xiin: (i see some of you understood my note from the last chapter ) Chapter 167.2: The content in his chat box was so sweet it was deadly,Captain~~~~” The Thousand Needle Forest was filled with bloody rain. Xie He and Moonlit fought fiercely against each other as soon as they entered the Central Zone. At the time, Eurostar had been really scared. He hid behind a huge ice sculpture and waited for the two to finish fighting. God Xie and Moonlit were old opponents. They hadnt gotten over the episode from the winter training camp before meeting again here; of course they had to fight. There werent that many people whod come out of the Thousand Needle Forest alive. Other than Eurostar-star, there were two or three other small cats whod managed to sneak out by hiding themselves well and avoiding the plague gods. The audience was eager to watch a solo fight between two mages. Both the European and China competition zones featured and provided commentary on the fight. Xie Hes initial talents and Moonlits initial talents overlapped quite a lot. Both of them were people who would fight all the way to the end, so they didnt take any support talents and had selected all mage talents. Immortal warlock, wood spirit mage, demonic mage, blood demon druid. The immortal warlock and the spirit mage were agile assassin mage type heroes. The demonic mage had extremely high damage, and the blood demon druid had strong survivability. These talent selections reflected how alike Xie He and Moonlits personalities were. Slink around and try to survive? No way! Either you die or I live! They had the same personality, same talents, and there were also grudges between the two players. When they started fighting, it couldnt possibly be more fun to watch. Xie Hes immortal warlock was famous for being the ceiling of the Glory circle. Unlike Wei Xiao, who still needed to link up his skills to brush out thousand layers of clouds, his cloud marks were everywhere, and he made use of the special skill levitate to drop down from the clouds right from the start! Moonlit used the spirit mages powerful movement ability to avoid damage. Xie He shot out a demonic magic beam as soon as he landed, and it was unclear when hed laid out the angles, but four beams overlapped, stabbing towards Moonlit. Moonlit had nowhere to hide and could only switch to the blood demon druid, making use of its ability to transform damage into health to preserve his life. From this wave of exchanges, it could be seen that Moonlit was a little less experienced. If they were only fighting with immortal warlocks, then he could fight evenly with Xie He, but when it came to switching between four talents, the situation became more difficult for him. This wasnt a matter of personal talent, but rather a lack of experience. The immortal warlock and demonic mage were two very different types of talents. The former attacked stealthily in close combat and smashed damage into the opponents face; the latter talent required the player to stand at the back and have enough accuracy to aim the damage in one place. Most mid-lane players were focused on one style. For example, they may be more suited towards assassin mages or more suited to fortress mages. Both players had taken both types, but playing at Xie Hes level was impossible without a few years of experience. Moonlit had been able to win against Xie He during the winter training camp because on one hand, he was using the immortal warlock, and on the other hand, RRs mid-jungler linkage had caught EVE off-guard. Now, when they met in the big brawl, the situation wasnt so simple. By the time Xie He also switched to the blood demon druid, Moonlit was done for. The field of death. Money sighed. Oh, my poor little Moon-moon. Old G sighed. Oh, my poor captain. What was wrong with Yuan Ze? Oh, the Battlesong Plains were adjacent to Falling Star Lake. Yuan Ze, whod fought all the way out from the Battlesong Plains had just run into Close. This scene was too exciting. All the venues around the world had switched to show this scene at this time. It was shown on big screens and small screens, full screens and half screens, but undoubtedly, almost the entire world was paying attention to these two people whod met on a narrow road! Meanwhile, Wei Xiao launched himself at Eurostar-star. Eurostar was startled and quickly switched to the storm hunter, running away super fast. Wei Xiao typed, Dont run! Eurostar could type too, Should I not run and wait for death? Wei Xiao: Isnt dying under my sword a happy event? Eurostar: Like hell! Even without mentioning anything else, our little coward Oh, no, our Euro Gods storm hunter was really very good. His path of stepping on raindrops would never break. The light elf stepped on the rain, running away quickly. Suddenly, Eurostar saw a savior! Who was it? Who was that man who was standing still in the dazzling light of the Central Zone in a snowy white robe?! CCY1.Yan. Eurostar teared up. God Yan! Save me! For better or worse, the two of them had one round of feelings from the winter training camp. Eurostars plea for help was very inspired, but unfortunately Scrolling comments: I dont dare to watch. Feeling heartache for my star. Whats this called? My gossip partner and my sworn enemy got together? Tsk, its really a big play! Eurostars eyesight was very sharp. He watched the holy priest lift his hand. This gesture, this light, it was clearly the light gate! Great, as long as God Yan helped him stop Little Lunatic Wei, he would surely escape to live another day. The light gate fell, steady and accurate, smashing onto Eurostars body. Eurostar: ?????? Wei Xiao used sudden strike to approach, his crimson blade moving like a shadow. Eurostar yelled, God Yan! You controlled the wrong person! Wei Xiao still had time to type: How was it wrong? Its not wrong at all. He used a shadow attack to get close, stacking up blood marks on Eurostars body. Eurostar was shocked. Do you have to Do you have to go as far as to brush out eight light arcs for me?! Ah Eurostar died amidst a riotous burst of brilliant color. It wasnt until he entered the field of death and communicated with the other dead bodies that Eurostar realized what was going on. What kind of sin did I commit?! God Yan hadnt needed to use a control skill. He was the one whod been too arrogant QAQ! Not long after, Fu Li also appeared in the field of death. Eurostar wailed and cried loudly, Captain, God Yan and Little Lunatic Wei forcibly xxx-ed me! Fu Li: After crying, Eurostar came back to his senses. Captain, why are you also dead? Fu Li: Bad luck. His luck really wasnt very good. Fu Li had been the first player to walk out of the maze, leaving God Kim far behind him. Kim Sung-hyun, whod been lost in the maze the whole time and smashed into walls so much his head was covered in bumps, finally made it out of the maze. His loyal fans, whod accompanied him smashing into walls the whole way, completely understood how aggrieved God Kim felt. He was too miserable, really too miserable. Just look at the rankings. Everyone from the Team of Gods was on the list! Close was first, Yuan Ze and Xie He were fighting over third place, and the second place was the little demon who was supported by Captain Yan. Although his name was I Like Close The Most, he was obviously Captain Yans new favorite pet. Only God Kim Only the lofty number one ADC in Glory had never shown up in the rankings at all! Kim Sung-hyun was so angry that he was about to explode. He went crazy as soon as he came out of the maze. Originally, this proud flower was the most gentle member of the Team of Gods. He often snatched up kills from between the seams of his teammates fingers, like a harmonious and peaceful flower who only had to look beautiful. Now The Proud Flower Kim whose hackles had been all raised up killed gods when he met gods and killed buddhas when he met buddhas, slaughtering his way across the Shining Gold Temple and clearing it out. Fu Li had collected a whole pile of data. He could even produce a book, titled . Fu Li said to Eurostar, Special training when we go back. Eurostar: Ah? Fu Li sneered. Kim Sung-hyuns play methods are very suitable for you. Eurostars head was filled with fog, and he didnt know what kind of hellish giant pits were waiting for him up ahead. Yan Jiang fulfilled his promise. When Wei Xiao was only tens of meters away from the final circle, his body was covered with six fully completed pieces of equipment. But Wei Xiao hadnt stopped. He would kill anyone he encountered and pick up any equipment he saw. Yan Jiang didnt ask about it. If he wanted to kill people, then he would control them for him. They encountered no shortage of professional players, but they all died miserably. When the halo had shrunk down to only five meters, Wei Xiaos eyes lit up, God Xie! Finally, the players from the adjacent Moonlight Wetland and Thousand Needle Forest had run into each other. Wei Xiao saw Xie He, who was the only one left. Xie He glanced at his ID and didnt say anything. He aimed straight at him with a thousand layers of clouds. This was Wei Xiaos favorite style. He switched to the immortal warlock and met him face on. Xie He really didnt take him lightly. Any player who could make their way here, regardless of how stupid their IDs were, had to have some strength. The angle of Wei Xiaos connecting clouds was very delicate. Xie Hes eyebrows raised up slightly, and his eyes filled with fighting spirit. Not bad. Which China competition zone mid-laner was this? This idea had just flashed by when the immortal warlock switched to a storm hunter. Raindrops flew up, and a cold arrow shot straight at him. Xie He felt a brief moment of surprise as an inexplicable sense of familiarity surged into his heart. CCClose? Then he looked at this ID again Oh, dont say its Close. If Close really saw this ID, that man would probably send him to hell with nine light arcs. Xie Hes talents were all mage talents, but he wasnt the slightest bit afraid of Wei Xiaos talent kaleidoscope. When Wei Xiao used the immortal warlock, he also used the immortal warlock and faced him head on. When Wei Xiao switched to the storm hunter, he used the spirit mages mobility to avoid damage. When Wei Xiao switched to the blood warrior, Xie He used the demonic mage, accurately launching skills that targeted all kinds of melee talents. The two of them fought fiercely, and it was difficult to say who had the upper hand. At this time, a light gate dropped down, locking onto Xie He. Xie He paused. He rotated his perspective to see his former captain bathed in holy light. Xie He: ? Yan Jiang: Final circle. These words were spoken to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao took a look at Xie Hes remaining health, Alright then, well fight again later! Xie He figured out the situation, Who is he? Yan Jiang: I dont know. Xie He: You dont even f*cking know who he is, but youre protecting him? The final circle contracted. One glance was enough to see that there were only seven people in the ring. Close and Marshal, whose fight hadnt reached any sort of conclusion, Xie He and Wei Xiao, whose fight also hadnt reached a conclusion due to Yan Jiangs interruption, Kim Sung-hyun, who was filled with a murderous aura, and a melon seed eating audience member The melon seed audience member looked at their IDs and immediately wanted to jump over to the player whose ID was clearly problematic but should clearly be a member of the general masses, I Like Close The Most. Brother, lets jump from the challenge arena together. Then, his fellow brother stepped on raindrops and flew to Closes side. The content in his chat box was so sweet it was deadly, Captain~~~~ Chapter 168.1: There was always a little beast who could destroy the atmosphere. The finals circle was only so big. Everyone could see the chat box that popped up over his head. At this moment, the thoughts of everyone present were different. The melon seed eating audience: ??? Yuan Zes head hurt. Little Lunatic Wei? Could you care about your image just a little? Coming up with an ID like that was a huge piece of black history that should be left in the closet, yet you aired it out in front of the whole world for everyone to see?! Proud Flower Kim, whose murderous frenzy had cooled down slightly at the sight: Sure enough, if one lived long enough, they would see all kinds of little beasts. The elf whod landed lightly on the ground amidst the rain performed a gesture. Each character in Glory had its own in-game gesture, and it was different for each skin. Wei Xiaos storm hunter was a collectors edition fairy king skin. The slender fairy elf figure was as pale as snow, with silver hair cascading down like a waterfall, and a crown made of flower branches that held a charming sapphire. The bright lights were reflected in his eyes, like a sunny day after snow, cold but clear. The elf king was cool and noble, but at this time, he was leaning forward slightly, his eyes slightly narrowed, his slender fingertips touching his lips briefly, just before a heart-shaped special effect flew out. CCFlying kiss. Aimed precisely at Close. The whole finals circle: .. The global audience: . Bai Cai covered his eyes. He was huffing out breaths of air. It was a real performance of things will develop in the opposite direction when theyve gone too far. Regarding this Quiet whod gone to such extreme recklessness, the entire global audience was left choked and speechless. Fans in other competition zones: Who is this? Who is this!! FTWs new jungler. ??? His strength is proportional to the craziness of his actions. There were fans from China who enthusiastically explained the situation, FTW.Quiet, jungler king, warrior king, mage king, hunter king, trash talk king. You can walk by, pass by, but dont miss out. Become a Quiet fan, you wont lose out. At most, youll just regret until your intestines hurt. After buying into Quiet, from then on, moral integrity will forever be a passer-by. Did you see that? This is FTWs moral integrity lower limit, oh sorry, Im too modest. This is clearly our China competition zones moral integrity lower limit. What makes those who didnt understand the situation even more frightened was Closes response. Based on Xie Hes understanding of Close, he was a man who refused all sorts of gaudy and flaunting things. When seeing this ID he would surely send him to hell, let alone after receiving such a suffocating flying kiss. However There were no nine light arcs. There was no shadow attack. There wasnt even a basic attack. Close hadnt typed out a single word during the whole game and hadnt said a single sentence. But at this moment, he typed out his first word: Good. Xie He: .. Dont interview him. If you interview him, then God Xie wouldnt be able to control his own mage staff! Equally motionless was the former FTW captain, the man whod created one miracle after another in the Team of Gods. Yan Jiang: Are you a FTW player? Wei Xiao formally introduced himself to him, FTW.Quiet, jungler position. My goal is the global championship! Not only could God Yan see these words, the entire final circle and the global audience could also see it very clearly! Off stage, Coach Chen Feng and Manager Xiang Liu both felt a headache hit them at the same time: Were there any painkillers? The headache was the type where they would die if they didnt take them now. Cong Yi, who was sitting beside them, laughed without any regard for politeness. Really worthy of being him. The commentator also started to have fun with it, and the audience were even more explosive with their scrolling comments. When others said these words, everyone might scoff at them, feeling that the player was acting too arrogantly or having delusions over their own strength. In short, they were negative emotions. But it was different with Wei Xiao. His personal style was too strange, making it so that people didnt feel that it was unexpected no matter what he said, and they even started to have a strange sense of expectation. It was as though he could do anythingCCthis immortal could do things that ordinary people didnt even dare to think about! This kind of confidence made people smile in their hearts, and also caused them to feel an incomparable envy. Yan Jiang had thought of the possibility that he was a professional player. After all, the strength that he showed was very uncommon. But The European competition zone camera switched to show Yan Jiang. The chest of a man who was always calm and self-contained clearly showed ups and downs. What would make him even more upset was still to come. Wei Xiaos fingers clattered over the keyboard as he typed, explaining the situation on his side very clearly in just a short moment, Captain, I brought Captain Yan here for you! Yan Jiang: Wei Xiao: He has a godly special skill on him! Yan Jiang sucked in a light breath. Wei Xiao: Kill him quickly! Yan Jiang: Quiet. Wei Xiao: Hm? Yan Jiang stared at this seemingly innocent word that also seemed to beg for a beating. His fingers landed heavily on his keyboard, This whole time, your goal was to send me to Close? Wei Xiao: Of course. His tone was bold and righteous. Xie He, who vaguely understood something, For a moment, he didnt know who he should feel distressed for. Provoking Yan Jiang like thisCQuiet, you will die, you will die very miserably. In the whole finals circle, only the melon seed eating big brother had a face covered in confusion. What was everyone talking about? Could someone translate it for him? Miserable. He was really miserable. So many people envied the number one melon seed eating audience, but because the language was unclear, he didnt couldnt understand what kind of melon seeds he was eating. The finals circle wasnt a place for people to chat in. In the time it took for them to type out a few lines, a silver beam shot down from the sky. A colorful gem was encased within. This wasnt something that would exist in reality. This dreamlike luster was something a real gem wouldnt have. CCSky Islands Heart. The ultimate core of the big brawl. From the outer zones to the central zone, then to the finals circle. The only condition for victory was to obtain Sky Islands Heart. The halo would shrink continuously until it all entered Sky Islands Heart. The player who obtained this gem could stand on the new island and see the surrender of all the beasts. Once Sky Islands heart landed in the finals circle, whoever could hold Sky Islands Heart and keep it for 300 seconds would become the final winner. 300 seconds, 5 minutes. How could a player keep and guard it in such an arena? The place where Sky Islands Heart landed was randomly generated. The melon seed eating audience was extremely lucky and was blessed with having Sky Islands heart land right where he was standing. System announcement: CM picks up Sky Islands Heart. Countdown: 300 seconds. It was already very unexpected for CM to have survived and made it into the finals circle. He wasnt a professional player, but was one of the top anchors in the North American competition zone. He was strong and had held his own against Gary in a 1v1 game. It was impossible for a player with no ability to survive until now amongst a crowd of all-stars. But no matter how much ability he had, at this moment, at this time Going up against the whole Team of Gods on his own? Mama, help me! Even before CM could react, cloud marks, ice arrows, and spears all whistled over. Finally, his life was taken away by a brilliant light arc. CM was very satisfied about being able to die in such a thrilling manner. The holder of Sky Islands Heart had died. Not only did he drop all his equipment and skill points, Sky Islands Heart also hung suspended in the air. The commentators from all over the world started to speak quickly, Who will be the next to pick up Sky Islands Heart?! This is a hot potato. Its not necessarily a good thing to pick it up now. But if you can hold on for the next five minutes, victory will belong to the holder of Sky Islands Heart! How can they hold on? The arena is so small, and all the players left alive are god level players. The scene was really thrilling. Holding Sky Islands Heart for 300 seconds meant winning the game, but of the six people present, none of them were easy to deal with. What kind of concept was 5 minutes? It only took three seconds for a shadow thief to kill someone. Picking up Sky Islands Heart now was no different from embarking on the road to death. Not only the commentators and guests, but even the audience and the fans in the live broadcast room were all talking about it. Countless small essays filled the scrolling comments, and nobody could see the arena clearly through the comments. Even in the Gossip Emperors broadcast, the CP fans who were immersed in their ships couldnt help but grow anxious. What to do, what to do, I dont want to see the great demon king lose! Dont pick up Sky Islands Heart for now. In the current situation, whoever picks it up will die. Yes, yes, yes, dont pick it up, fight the group battle first and determine the winner before going for it. This really is a damned big brawl! When everyone felt that Sky Islands Heart shouldnt be touched, and picking it up would be death, the system announcement rang outCC FTW.Close has picked up Sky Islands Heart. Countdown: 280 seconds. The whole world burst into an uproar. Even the guests were confused. The commentators spoke quickly, Close has picked up Sky Islands Heart. Hes about to face concentrated attacks! Close fans in the China competition zone were going crazy. Holy shit, what kind of situation is this? Great demon king, nooo, ahhhhh! Close cant lose! No way, I cant breathe, three years ago, this group of dogs tossed away my Close, and now theyre going to beat him up three years later? Upstairs, dont say that, your words make my heart skip a beat. What if they dont attack Close? Then my heart will be even more scared! Why does my great demon king have to suffer such grievance?! The fans mentality exploded, and those in the finals circle were also stunned. Close had picked up Sky Islands Heart. According to the rules, they had to go and fight for it. Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He For the three of them to side together and attack Close. They really couldnt make themselves lift up their guns, hold up their arrows, or steady their mage staves. Until a chat box popped up, Captain, go for it!!! Kill them!!! The whole world fell silent. There was always a little beast who could destroy the atmosphere. Chapter 168.2: Little Lunatic Wei, this can also happen to you someday! In North America, the camera lens had locked onto Lu Feng since a long time ago. The lighting from the side left a light shadow on his face, making his skin pale and cold, and highlighting the edges and corners of his features. There was no doubt that this was a face that was in line with everyones aesthetic. Handsome, heroic, and unsmiling. But when he saw the words on the screen, the corner of his mouth curved up, his thin lips raising, and his cold eyebrows relaxing slightly, like a butterfly fluttering in the air in early spring, bringing with it a soft, cold breeze. He replied to Wei Xiao: Mm. His words had just landed when the shadow thief entered stealth. The chat bubble with the single syllable accompanied him and disappeared from the arena, leaving no traces behind. !!! So thats how it could be done! Theyd only analyzed the competition system, only used their brains to imagine a ferocious siege, and unexpectedly forgotten that the great demon kings best talent was the shadow thief who could use stealth! Close snatching up Sky Islands Heart wasnt giving up the game, but rather that he had a well thought out plan to win the game beautifully. The commentator immediately gave a skill analysis, Although theres no time limit for the shadow thiefs stealth, his figure will appear within three seconds of being too close to another player. Its impossible for him to remain hidden for 300 seconds. The game designers understood their own talent designs better than anyone else. The shadow thief wasnt the only talent who could enter stealth. If a player could use stealth to hold Sky Islands Heart and hide for five minutes, then there would be no game to play. That was why the finals circle was so small. It was so small that stealth would be broken due to the distance between players. Close also hadnt intended to use stealth to hold on for 300 seconds. Hed waited so long, but it wasnt for the sake of hiding and dodging. When the shadow thief approached a target, an exclamation mark would appear over their heads. A golden exclamation mark flashed wildly over Kim Sung-hyuns head, causing goose bumps to appear all over his body. Damn it! He slid back a step to pull away. The shadow thief must be attacking from behind, and he wouldnt be the one to let Close A crimson blade flashed slightly, followed by a shadow attack. Kim Sung-hyun, whod just landed again had run directly into an attack. He sucked in a breath and saw the shadow thief standing behind him. The red color on the crimson blade was brighter after it saw blood. Rend carried the effect of lowering defense, and the squishy hunter was most afraid of this effect. Kim Sung-hyun didnt have time to think about how Close could lock onto where he would step. He stepped on raindrops in a hurry and continued to pull away. When a hunter was faced with a thief, kiting tactics were the best choice. As long as he could pull away, then he could drag close combat talents to death even with basic attacks. Unfortunately, Close had four talents and four classes. The shadow thief used shadow attack, then his immortal warlock rushed over with connecting clouds, his cloud marks landing in a way that filled his opponent with apprehension. Wei Xiaos heart surged with excitement as he watched, Captain is so strong!!! Who said that written word couldnt express the same thing as a voice? His exclamation marks came with sound effects. Close built up thousand layers of clouds. Fortunately, Kim Sung-hyun had a moment of protection from fatal injury and was able to live on with only a sliver of health left. Unfortunately, that didnt mean that he could survive. The immortal warlock switched to the storm hunter, raindrops morphing into arrows that shot straight at him. God Kim finally died at the hands of the talent he was best at. System announcement: FTW.Close killed Pro.Succe. All the major venues, oh, except for the one in the Korean competition zone, all burst out in amazed applause. It was too wonderful. It had taken at most ten seconds, but this round of killing had been so excellent that it left everyone shivering and dizzy. Switching freely between four talents, this new singles competition mode was the great demon kings real home court! Kim Sung-hyun toppled to the ground. Wei Xiao couldnt remain calm. Its too exciting! I want to fight too! He switched to the shadow thief as he spoke and had just entered stealth when a light gate crashed down over his head from the sky. Wei Xiao: ??? Hed been hit by the light gate, and his stealth was broken. He stood there pitifully under the holy light. Who could use a light gate? There was only one holy priest in the whole challenge arena! Yan Jiang said nothing. He just used his skills to tell Little Lunatic Wei: Like hell youre fighting. Wei Xiao was very angry, Let me out! The light gate disappeared, and another control skill landed accurately on Wei Xiaos head. Wei Xiao: The audience members whod noticed what was happening in this small corner were laughing so hard they were squealing like pigs. What did it mean when they said good and evil would be rewarded? What did it mean when they said what goes around comes around? What did it mean when they said Little Lunatic Wei, this can also happen to you someday! Yan Jiangs four talents added up to a total of eight control skills. Previously, everyone had already seen his precise control skills in the Central Zone, and Wei Xiao had made use of them to kill until enough blood flowed to form a river. Now, the Swallowtail CP had no feelings left between them. God Yans control skills were all smashed onto Wei Xiaos body. swallowtail CP C β Yan () x Wei (β) C the words just sound the same Indeed, the God Yan whod been played had no way to kill this little beast. But as long as he controlled him accurately, Wei Little Xiao wouldnt even be able to think of moving today. Close killed Kim Sung-hyun in an instant. By the time Yuan Ze and Xie He reacted, God Kim was already lying there on the ground. Kim Sung-hyun: Am I the only soft persimmon?! Old Dog Yuan still had time to type, Youre not. Kim Sung-hyun: Yuan Ze: Youre a proud flower. As his voice dropped, his death knight summoned three hellhounds. He stepped on Proud Flower Kims body and charged towards the shadow thief. It was 1v2, but Close didnt panic at all. He landed a back stab on Xie He, then, when the immortal warlocks cloud mark flew over, he immediately stepped on raindrops to pull away. Yuan Ze simply couldnt stop his skill at all. He bumped straight into Xie He, who was brushing up thousand layers of clouds. Xie He: Yuan Ze: F*ck! The two of them were fed full with the damage from each others attack. Lu Feng summoned a phantom. One figure rushed to Xie He, and the other blocked Yuan Ze. He used the blood warriors skill to create a 2v2 momentum. Yuan Ze had a deep understanding of the blood warrior and knew that he was attempting to recover health from this attack. How could he let Close succeed? He instantly switched to the berserker warrior and cut down the phantom with bold and resolute. Xie He didnt fall behind. His spirit mage rolled and dodged to pull away, magic beams shooting directly at Closes real body. After the phantoms died, the blood warrior was stunned for a brief moment. Xie Hes grasp on timing was very accurate, and his magic beams gathered and stabbed, leaving Close with only one word, death. Was the great demon king done for? Was winning the game with a 1v3 nothing but a dream? The magic beams hit! Six magic beams coming together, no matter how high his defense was, no matter how much health he had, he would never be able to withstand this shocking, explosive damage. Close was dead In the next second, the whole audience was shocked. There was no resurrection armor in the big brawl, and dying was dying. There was no such thing as resurrection armor that would allow a player to stand back up and fight again. However, Close, who had been hit with all the magic beams, was left almost unscathed. The sharp eyed commentators noticed it. Brother Big Mouths voice was about to become hoarse from shouting, Its an invincible light shield! Everyone seemed to be waking up from a dream, Holy shit, Close has the immortal warlock talent At the last moment, the frozen Close had switched to the immortal warlock. At the same time, hed sold a piece of equipment from his blood warrior and immediately exchanged it for the invincible light shield. This was a piece of equipment that only mages could use. Its effect was to grant one second of immunity to all damage. This kind of operation wasnt difficult. In 5v5 games, many professional players and even high-end players could easily switch to an invincible light shield in the last moment before their resurrection armor kicked in, but this was the big brawl There were four talents, and there was no two second gap before the resurrection armor kicked in. Close had switched talents, sold and purchased equipment and used the invincible light shield in less than a second. This hand speed Was it human?! The commentator: When the game is over, we can take a look at a direct shot of Closes mouse actions. This shooting angle existed in the competitions, where the camera only captured operations of the players hands. It was for the sake of looking at their hand speed in such critical moments. No matter how terrible this operation was, the result was that Close didnt die, and the skills in Yuan Ze and Xie Hes four talents had all been used up. The shadow thief entered stealth, approaching the immortal warlock and sending him back to heaven. Then, he used the shadow attack and special skill levitate to move to Yuan Ze in a flash. Old Dog Yuan was worthy of once being the solo king. He used the gun warrior to move back, his long gun sweeping out with a shower of sparks to limit the shadow thiefs movement. However, Close didnt need to get any closer to him. Yuan Zes positioning had already put him within range of his nine light arcs. Lights filled up most of the challenge arena, and Yuan Ze, whod been forced into a corner, took damage from the full set of light arcs. Yuan Ze: System announcement: FTW.Close killed L&P.Marshal. Wei Little Xiao, whod been controlled into seclusion, didnt struggle anymore. He typed in a frenzy, Close is amazing! Close is the most handsome! Close is number one in the world! When it came to cheering, even the hardcore Close fans in the scrolling comments werent as good as this little beast. What was the highest level that fans could achieve? Blowing rainbow farts in the challenge arena! There were only three people left out of the original seven. The challenge arena wasnt big, and it now seemed a little empty. Yan Jiang released Wei Xiao. Close looked over. Fight? Yan Jiang: Is there any point? Close: There is. It wasnt easy for him to bring you over to me. Yan Jiang: As a result? As a result, Yan Jiang used up all his control skills on Wei Xiao, controlling him for a full 30 seconds. Close used a thousand layers of clouds to send God Yan off-stage to rest. System announcement: Close holds Sky Islands Heart. Countdown: 180 seconds. There were only two players left on the stage. They were from the same competition zone, the same team, and were the former and present jungler kings. Close: Solo? Wei Xiao: Okay! xiin: a public world for two~ Chapter 169.1: Your God Q doesnt even know what it means to be a real man! The China competition zone was really reveling in a carnival. Before the global big brawl opening game, the players in the China competition zone were all eagerly discussing amongst themselves, With the great demon king here, well definitely be able to stand proudly this time! Close is invincible, first place must belong to China! Damn it, after keeping pace for three plus years, the China competition zone can finally attract global attention on a grand scene! There were also those who were worried. The great demon king hasnt touched the game for two months. Will he be okay? The big brawl is a new game mode. Doesnt the great demon kings strength lie in his ability to solo? The new competition mode is full of pitfalls. Close, dont trip and fall. If Close loses miserably in the big brawl, will that mean that our China competition zone is done for agaaaaaaaain? Holy shit, fellow brother, dont use your crows mouth Its very likely Originally, we only had the singles competition to watch. Now that the competition system is changed, if Close messes up, this year Countless people felt a scared thrill when they heard these words: China had only had the one singles competition champion for the past three consecutive years. if they couldnt even obtain this, then theyd really be stuck kneeling all the way until the end! Shut up! The great demon king could win the championship for the past three years despite his injury. This year, hes treated his shoulder injury and will definitely soar up into the sky! Also, this years China competition zone is super strong. Theres no need to mention FTW; RR is good, and 3U and TPT are also on the rise. Dont be so pessimistic. Yes, yes, yes, maybe we can even win three championships this year Holy shit, dont jinx it! The audience was already this excited and anxious before the game. During the game, they kept holding their breaths, and they were nervous every time a player fell from the China competition zone. Even Closes heavenly group became attractive and lovely to the straight men who were watching. Now, there were only two people left in the finals circle. One was FTWs top-laner, and one was FTWs jungler. No matter how they played around, first place belonged to FTW, and it belonged to the China competition zone. How could they not celebrate! The game hadnt yet ended yet, but the China competition zones excitement had already reached its climax! The other competition zones were a little sad. On one hand, they acknowledged that Close was very strong, and on the other hand, they felt that the crappy players in their own competition zones werent good enough. But fortunately, it was just a showcase game. When the main competition began, they wouldnt make a joke of themselves like this anymore. Reasonably speaking, since there was only FTWs infighting left to watch, everyone could just turn off the live broadcast and stop watching. But nobody turned it off. From all the venues to all the live broadcasting platforms, tens of millions of people were all staring at this final battle. Close vs I Like Close The Most. This ID that hurt the eyes! But they really wanted to watch When two all-rounder kings battled, what kind of tricks would they show off? They rubbed their hands in anticipation! The China competition zone had already started making bets. As many as 80% of the audience bet that Close would win, and only 20% believed that Quiet could win, but these 20% were smiling happily. I dont care. Quiet is so cute, I just want to give him money! There was also: Q baby is so good, Mama just wants to spoil him! There was another strange scene going on in the Gossip Emperors live broadcast. All the CP sisters were immersed in shipping their CP, and after they filled up the scrolling comments, a girl clapped her hands and spoke up, This is the battle to determine gong and shou! Someone immediately discovered it. Sister, you know how to talk, speak more! This makes sense. I dont care, whoever wins this game will be the gong. Isnt Q cub already acknowledged as the Quiets only 19! A little wolf dog. When he grows up I cant, I cant, the great demon king is too alpha-like. I cant imagine him being the shou Isnt Quiet alpha-like? He left corpses everywhere in the Moonlight Wetland, slaughtered mercilessly as he went on a killing spree across the Central Zone, then clamored and shocked the whole world in the finals circle. How could that not be alpha-like! Bai Cais head was covered with black lines as he watched the scrolling comments. He really wanted to tell these little sisters, Your God Q doesnt even know what it means to be a real man, like hell hes a gong! There was only 180 seconds left on Sky Islands Heart. Lu Feng and Wei Xiao didnt delay and started fighting right away. One of them was in North America, and the other was in China. They both sat on the high-profile arena platforms and came together to fight a wonderful solo game in front of the global audience. This was a solo that no one had ever seen before. It was also a first for the two parties involved. Four talents: shadow thief, blood warrior, immortal warlock, storm hunter. Both of them managed to play out the effects of a group fight. In fact, it didnt matter who won or lost, and it didnt matter who remained standing at the end. At this moment, they were simply enjoying the fight. Trying to savor the feeling of their blood boiling, they were only focused on each other! Lu Feng started with the immortal warlock, using connecting clouds like floating clouds and flowing water. His graceful figure was like an immortal warlock statue that walked down from the nine heavens, his inky black hair swaying with the clouds. The special effects linked up the cloud marks, and thousand layers of clouds was a moment of flowing light. Wei Xiao was too familiar with Lu Feng, so familiar that he knew what he would do through sheer instinct. The storm hunter stepped lightly on raindrops and slipped away at an angle that seemed incredible to the audience. At the start, the commentators werent serious since the results for the game had already been determined. It was originally a showcase game for entertainment, and the rest of the game was even more of a performance. However, they couldnt help but take it seriously after the first round of exchanges. After seeing such wonderful operations, their professionalism didnt allow them to treat this fight so carelessly. Closes thousand layers of clouds is very skilled. Elegant, with elements of his own unique temperament. The storm hunter made a quintessential dodge. They really live up to being from the same team; they know each other very well. Quiet switched talents! After using the storm hunter to change positions, Wei Xiao switched to the blood warrior. His phantom charged towards the immortal warlock. The immortal warlock had a period of no skills after the thousand layers of clouds. Close, whose entire set of skills had just missed, would be in a very dangerous situation if he became entangled with the phantom. The commentators were very curious to know which talent Close would switch toCC Storm hunter? Will he use stepping on raindrops to fly up and avoid the phantoms charge? The shadow thief works too. He can shadow attack directly and counterattack against the blood warrior! Theyd all guessed wrong. When Wei Xiaos phantom charged over suddenly and Lu Feng also switched to the blood warrior. Nobody could see when hed switched talents, but what smashed into the phantom was another phantom! Everyone at the scene was startled. How did he do it??? Im not in the same time and space plane as the great demon king, right?! Switching talents and tossing out phantoms instantly, their brains couldnt keep up with this kind of hand speed, okay?! Someone disdained them. Hes in North America. At the very least, were not in the same time zone The commentators were on fire. Close is always able to surprise us. The phantoms charged into each other, and Quiets attack was countered. At the same time, because of the distance, his frozen state lasts for a shorter time! Once the blood warriors phantom was killed, the player would be left frozen for a brief moment. The duration of this state depended on the distance between the phantom and the player. Wei Xiao had attacked first, and his phantom had flown over towards Lu Feng. The distance between him and his phantom had to be longer than Lu Fengs, so he couldnt move his body for 0.5 seconds. On the other hand, Lu Feng practically didnt have any freeze time because of how close he was to his own phantom. For ordinary players, this 0.5 second was meaningless, but for professional players, it was already long enough to mean death. Close used blood stab and blood cut, tossing them out at Wei Xiao relentlessly. On the China competition zone side, the camera switched to show Wei Xiao. The boy was sitting up straight, his neck pale and slender against his black team uniform. His thin jaw was tensed up slightly, but his lips were curved, and his eyes were full of joy. There was no need for the commentators to say anything. Everyone who saw this scene could sense his mood. Happy. HAPPY written out in capital letters! This little lunatic. Even Brother Big Mouth couldnt help shouting at him. Closes skills were very accurate. Wei Xiao couldnt escape, but there was no need to dodge. The blood warriors ultimate moveCCbirth of the blood demon! The blood warrior who was taken over by the blood demon became immune to all damage for two seconds. Closes skills, which couldnt miss, became ineffective due to Wei Xiaos skill. The audiences blood was boiling as they watched. They just wanted to quickly go back and watch the replay so that they could see what had happened over the past few seconds over and over again a dozen times! They also needed to slow down the replay, otherwise their eyes couldnt keep up at all! Wei Xiao used up all of his blood warriors skills and switched talents again. When the hooded shadow thief landed, goosebumps came up all over the audiences skin. Its coming, its coming! Light arcs, light arcs! Eight light arcs? If all eight of them can hit, then Close wont be able to hold up. Holy shit, Close switched talents too! Two shadow thieves brushing out light arcs together? Mama, if I can see two sets of nine light arcs at the same time, Ill die with no regrets! The Chinese fans were collectively high and excited. It didnt matter if they were fans or haters; at this moment, they were all staring at the screen, and their hearts were filled with one sentenceCC A peak level duel of peak level shadow thieves was too cool! Chapter 169.2: It turned out that Glory could be so beautiful. The two players in the finals circle didnt disappoint anyone. Wei Xiao attacked Lu Feng from behind, and Lu Feng used a sudden stab to pull away. Strangely enough, both people stacked up a layer of marks at the same time. Nine light arcs required marks and damage. Everyone understood this truth, but how exactly to put this into practice in the rapidly changing arena was too difficult for them to solve! The commentators spoke super quickly, and as their voices reached the peak, the scene in the arena also became more and more white-hot. Attack, dodge. Skill release, resist. The camera directors from the North American competition zone and the China competition zone seemed to have the same mind as they simultaneously aimed the cameras at the two players left hands. Slender fingers, pale skin. They slid over the keyboard as though they were using flash. The clacking sound of the keyboard keys created a charming melody that fell on the tip of tens of thousands of audience members hearts, making their scalps go numb. Quiet used nine light arcs! The two of them simultaneously Thats not right! Closes damage isnt only A reddish glow suddenly rose up from the slender shadow thiefs body. The people who understood, all got it at this time. The godly special skill that Yan Jiang had picked upCCfury. This skill raised damage dealt by 80%. No way In their lifetime, would they actually be able to See ten light arcs! Dazzling white light blew up the entire arena, followed by a rapid contraction and expansion, like the whole universe had exploded. Colors that were impossible to describe filled up the whole screen, and everyone who saw this scene was left stunned. It turned out that there were special effects for ten light arcs. It turned out that the ten light arcs existed. It turned out that Glory could be so beautiful. Half a second after players all over the world held their breath, fierce applause broke out in each competition zone! It was too amazing. This was a fantastic finish to the opening game! Ten light arcs dispersed, leaving only one person standing alone in the challenge arena. The shadow thief was wearing his own championship skin, his brows and eyes covered by a hood, leaving only his pale chin and the corners of his mouth visible. FTW.Close. CCThe king of the night who brought about infinite glory. System announcement: FTW.Close holds Sky Islands Heart. Countdown: 10 seconds. These ten seconds belonged to Close, belonged to FTW, and belonged to the China competition zone! 10, 9, 8, 7 The Sky Island of Light condensed into a spark of light, the dazzling glow coating the shadow thiefs body in a layer of gold. Sky Islands Heart hovered in front of him, the gorgeous colors like a miniature version of the ten light arcs. It turned gently, waiting for its new owner. The shadow thief reached out a hand and held Sky Islands Heart between his slender fingers encased in black gloves. Light suddenly rose up, and the scene on the screen changed. Sky Island looked completely different. All the ancient fierce beasts that had previously wandered outside the island had now come onto the island The giant kun that was as vast as the sea, the tiger that was as majestic as the mountains, the roc that could cover the sun and moon with its wings Such a magnificent scene all revolved around the only person in the center of the island. Dragons and tigers roared. The sound waves gained substance and caused the vegetation to shake. Sky Islands Heart integrated into the palm of his hand. The one whod survived was the real owner of Sky Island. Two lines of text popped up on the screen: Glorys new game mode: Sky Island Big Brawl. Welcome to the battle. The opening game was over. Wei Xiao, who was in the field of death, sucked in a gentle breath. Cool! In fact, in the last scene, regardless of whether it was nine light arcs or ten light arcs, the amount of damage dealt had already overflowed. As long as anyone was hit with it, the damage from eight light arcs was already enough to kill someone. Why had Wei Xiao died, but Lu Feng had remained standing? It wasnt due to the blood warriors ultimate move, and it wasnt because of the invincible light shield that was off cooldown. It also wasnt the fatal immunity equipment that ADC talents could buy. Because these active skills were all useless when using light arcs. The reason why Lu Feng remained standing at the end was due to the additional effect granted by brushing out ten light arcs: The player couldnt be targeted. Close, whod initiated ten light arcs, couldnt be targeted, and therefore couldnt be attacked by any skill. But Quiet, whod only managed nine light arcs, had had his health emptied out by the ten light arcs. Wei Xiao tried to hold back, but he ultimately couldnt endure it and started typing in the field of death, Laozis really badass. Dying to ten light arcs, Im the only one who has experienced it! This proud tone, these ostentatious words. Other than those who couldnt understand the language, everyone else: . Get the hell out, you little lunatic! Fortunately, the field of death disappeared after the game ended, and everyone didnt have to be tormented like this any further. At this point, the Sky Island Big Brawls opening game came to an end. The organizers were so happy they were going crazy. CCThese special effects were absolutely amazing. The game developers were also happy enough to explode. CCThey hadnt stayed up all night and worked so desperately to finish up the ten light arcs special effects in vain. Close had really managed to make use of fury and launch ten light arcs! Although Close only increased the damage ratio by 20%, it had to be known that nine light arcs was already the limit for human beings. Breaking through by another percent was already an unimaginable breakthrough, let alone adding 20% in one go. Inhuman! Please put Close is inhuman into the code! Next up was the interview segment that everyone was looking forward to. Beneath the stage, Chen Feng and Xiang Lius hearts both thumped hard. They looked at each other and saw two words in each others eyes: Not good. It wasnt just the two of them. Bai Cai, who was still on his live broadcast, also sucked in a breath. Oh no! Little Lunatic Wei, who nobody was managing, was going to go overboard with his flaunting in front of the whole world! There were a whole pile of star players on the stage who would definitely be interviewed one by one, but there was also a sequence to follow. The results had already come out, and the second place in the world was also on the stage. They couldnt just skip his interview. After the game ended, everyone took off their headsets. Someone pushed Brother Sleep lightly, and he opened his eyes and blinked hazily. The big brawl had lasted for an hour and a half, and Asleep had slept for more than half of it. Asleep couldnt be blamed for this; hed been unlucky and met Marshal at the start of the game. He couldnt be blamed for dying in the Battlesong Plains. Relatively speaking, the cameras hadnt given the Battlesong Plains much attention. It wasnt because the fighting wasnt fierce there, but rather because it had been too fierce. It had been too intense, with a whole pile of people dying every minute. In the other zones, those in the Thousand Needle Forest could hide and dodge, those in the Falling Star Lake could dive underwater, those in the Moonlight Wetland could climb over the swamps, and those in Shining Gold Temple could run through the maze (Kim Sung-hyun: Heh!) In short, they all had their own specialties and were filled with suspense. In the Battlesong Plains, there was only fighting. CCKilling a man in ten steps, thousands of miles without a trace. The Battlesong Plains had tried its best to interpret this chivalrous line from the poet-immortals Ode to Gallantry. Asleep had died early, and he couldnt watch the game from the field of death. He couldnt really participate in everyones conversation, and after the host asked him two questions, his third reply was, Zzz.. The host: Alright then, sweet dreams! The first person to be interviewed was naturally Wei Xiao. This was something that Chen Feng and Xiang Liu couldnt prevent even if they were on the stage. This wasnt a team competition. He was the only second place player in the big brawl, and nobody could go up to replace him. The host was a soft and cute girl who showed two dimples when she smiled. She was very sweet. Hello, God Q. Wei Xiao smiled as well. He had red lips and white teeth, and his eyes curved with his smile. He had natural curves under his eyes that made him very likeable. Hello. The host: ! He was too good looking! Many people had been attracted by Wei Xiaos smile. Girls screamed, and even the straight men were sour. One look is enough to see that hes a little scum man who cheats peoples hearts! That really was Wei Little Xiaos wish. Whether or not he was a scum man, Close understood best. The host was shaken by his smile and became a little careless. She asked unwittingly, The first place in this performance competition went to Close. As a fellow member of FTW, how would you evaluate God Lu? As soon as this question came out, Chen Feng, Xiang Liu, and Brother Cai: The two who were at the scene wanted to run, and the one who was watching the live broadcast wanted to go offline to preserve his life. But Wei Little Xiao didnt give them the chance. His words were very smooth, God Lu? He has great skills, is very strong, and his most heaven-defying feature is his super endurance. Host: There were nearly ten thousand people in the arena. They all burst out laughing. Chen Feng and Xiang Liu: To hell with running, is there room for us to hide under the seats?! Bai Cai lifted a hand up to his forehead, covering his eyes and blocking his ears: Wei Little Xiao, shut up! The host was startled back into awareness. This wasnt right, how come this was developing in a direction that would get the live broadcast banned? She laughed dryly and cast around for a topic, God Qs evaluation is very unique. Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. Unique? Its very popular. Take a look at the IDs of our lucky players for this game. Close Has Great Skills had black lines all over his head. Close Is Very Strong just wanted to die. Close Has Super Endurance was currently going through the lowest point in his life. The host couldnt laugh anymore. She just wanted to end this conversation. As a result, Quiet took the initiative to send her a topic, Do you want to know who these IDs belong to? Host: The director held up a message boardCCAsk. The host steeled herself and asked, I heard that these IDs are all yours? Everyone had seen that statement. At the beginning, they hadnt believed it, but now Was there anything that this man who had no moral integrity and only super strength wouldnt do? Unexpectedly, Wei Xiao sent over a few light and airy words, Take a guess? The national audience: To hell with guessing! Its you, theres no doubt about it! Brother Cais brain hurt as he looked at screen after screen of scrolling comments: Nobody believed it when he issued the original statement; now that Little Lunatic Wei was acting coy, everyone believed it! Fellow audience friends, dont let this guy lead you all around by the nose! The Gossip Emperor was very anxious. He felt a huge headache for these fans, and was even more worried about FTWs future! He lay back in his chair and sighed in his heart. Captain, please come back soon Except for the great demon king, who else could tame this little beast?! xiin: satisfied. Chapter 170.1: 52 hours, 59 minutes, 57 seconds. The audience was very satisfied with the opening game. Many people sighed emotionally as they left the scene. How great would it be if this were the globals! Yeah, if this was a normal competition, and if this was the stage of the global finals, how crazy would the China competition zone that had won the championship be? FTW was the old Glory overlord whod been declining for three years. If they could bring out their old brilliance again, not just the old fans, but even new fans would all be filled with emotion and burst into tears. Dont panic! Close is coming back soon, and Quiet is so great. This year cant be a bad year! I want to watch them win I want to see them hammer the whole world and take the world cup that belongs to the China competition zone! Just saying that was enough to make some peoples eyes grow red. It had been a full three years of their hopes, would they get what they wanted this year? While the fans were overwhelmed with emotion, one of the parties involved was nestling in the van. His head was drooping slightly, and the ends of his hair brushed against the back of his neck; the contrast between the hair and the color of his skin made it appear even paler than the light outside. He was holding his cell phone, and the faint light from the screen illuminated the smile at the corner of his lips. Captain, those ten light arcs were too handsome! Captain~ Why are you so amazing! Ahh, I like you a little more every day/ Oh, thats not right, I love you a little more every day. I miss you Amidst Wei Little Xiaos spoilt act that was filling up the screen like scrolling comments, Lu Feng only used four words to make him blush and his heart pound, I miss you too. Wei Xiaos fingers trembled. He wished he could just paste his cell phone against his heart, as though it could allow the other party to hear his heartbeat. There werent many people in the car. It was just Chen Feng and Xiang Liu, and these two didnt want to turn around at all, not wanting to eat any dog food. The opening game had been a great success, and there were corresponding interviews in each competition zone. The South Korean competition zone was a little bit downcast. The host looked at the frosty cold God Kim and was very cautious with his questions, The Temple Kim Sung-hyun sneered. The host felt a dark cloud hovering over their head and quickly switched topics. Unexpectedly, Kim Sung-hyun spoke himself, I will participate in this years single player competition. Thank you everyone for your love and attention. This was no different from dropping a declaration of war. This performance competition had really aggravated Kim Sung-hyun. First, the Shining Gold Temple had abused him until he ended up running around like a headless fly, and then hed been the first one to fall in the finals circle (melon-seed eating anchor: am I not a person?!), and hed also suffered Old Shits cold cynicism in the field of death One thing after another stacked up, leaving our Proud Flower Kim with no way to vent! He had to get even. He had to beat up Close in the global competition, kick Old Dog Yuan flying, oh, and he would also shoot Little Lunatic Wei full of enough holes that hed turn into a sieve! This mood remained until he went off stage, and Li Heran handed him an apple. Biting into the crunchiness calmed Kim Sung-hyuns mood down slightly. Brother, lets go over the information for the big brawl when we get back. Li Heran: Mm. Kim Sung-hyun took a light breath. He didnt need to say the words out loud, but he believed that Li Heran understood. The waves at the back were too fierce; if the waves at the front didnt try their best, they may really end up dead on the beach. The interviews in the European competition zone were quite troublesome. The two who had the best results had already left the stage, arrogantly paying no heed to anyone else. Their interview? Yan Jiang: There was nothing to say. Xie He: I lost. The implication behind the words was, there was no need to interview, since he hadnt gotten first place. The two of them didnt look at each other any more than necessary before each returning to their own van to head back to their own places. Xie He had come with his coach, an extremely rarely seen woman in the professional arena. Haley wasnt wearing EVEs uniform. She was dressed in a Chanel dress that outlined her graceful and sexy figure. Her curled hair drifted down her back, and her red lips parted as she fluently spoke in Chinese, Wei Xiao, FTWs new jungler. Two years ago, he became famous overnight in the China competition zones youth training camp and was then noticed by Close. He left before signing the contract, then left the professional circle for two years, only returning at the start of the year. In winter training camp She steadily explained Wei Xiaos details clearly and thoroughly, even including his achievements in the winter training camp. Xie He listened without saying a word. When she was done, he leaned back against the seat. Haley: In terms of personal strength, FTW has Xie He picked up the thread of the conversation. Another Close? Haley: Yes. Xie He seldom smiled. Normally, his kindest expression was just a hint of warmth in his eyes. But at this moment, the corners of his mouth were raised, and his eyes were fierce. He isnt Close. The atmosphere at Y1 was even lower than that of EVE. Yan Jiang didnt say a single word on the way back, and the manager didnt dare to ask anything. He could only sit honestly at the front of the van, anxious and nervous. Damn it! What kind of stupid competition system was this! What a bullshit opening game! The bastard competition committee was inhuman! Had the competition committee ever considered their feelings when they used Yan Jiang for entertainment! It clearly wasnt a mode that was suited for support player participation, but they insisted on having Yan Jiang go. Great Looking at what Yan Jiang had experienced throughout the entire opening game, the manager had no way to imagine how the person behind him felt. This man had always had an unpredictable character. Now Ah, how was he supposed to coax him?! Yan Jiang finally spoke his first sentence since the end of the opening game when they reached the base, Help me look for something. With Y1s managers current mood, he wished he could pluck both the stars and the moon out of the sky for him. Tell me. Yan Jiang: All of Quiets game replays. The manager: Yan Jiang had already headed towards the individual training rooms. By the time Wei Xiao returned to the base, it was already 12PM. Lu Feng had also returned to the hotel. How could sending text messages be enough? Wei Xiao gave him a voice call after washing up. The call had just gone through when Wei Xiao started speaking, Congratulations to Close, the winner of the opening game championship! Lu Feng looked at the smiling eyes and face on his cell phone screen, and his own mouth unconsciously curved up as well. Thanks to you. Wei Xiao wasnt about to claim credit. Even without Captain Yans godly special skill, I still wouldnt be able to win against you. This was the truth. The two of them soloed together every day and knew the win rate in their own minds. How could Wei Xiao match up to Close, whod already experienced three seasons and won three consecutive world championships? Whats more, Close had gotten many rewards for killing so much during the opening game. Wei Xiao asked, What special skill did you get for your first kill? Lu Feng had only used fury when the two of them soloed against each other. He hadnt used a single other special skill. Lu Feng told him, Enchant. Wei Xiao was surprised, You didnt make use of such a powerful control skill? The skill Enchant was very powerful. Although the hook was very thin and placed high demands on the players accuracy, Lu Feng was an all-rounder king and had really practiced using hooks before. It was impossible for him to hit 100% of the time, but he could achieve an effect similar to a hack using his amazing prediction ability. Once the skill was aimed accurately, not only could it pull someone over to themselves, it would also send them into a daze for one second. If Lu Feng used it, Wei Xiao wouldnt even have had a chance to brush up his light arcs. Lu Feng: There was no need. Wei Xiao tsked. Captain, are you provoking me and saying Im crappy? Lu Feng laughed quietly and coaxed him, No. Wei Xiao complained and muttered, Then why didnt you use it? Lu Feng: When Im with you, how could there be any need to use enchant? Double entendre. Wei Xiao: Half a second later, he came back to his senses, F*ck! His face heated. Wei Xiaos heart jumped straight up with this round of flirting. However, Wei Little Xiao wasnt called little beast for nothing. He quickly started messing around in return. Are you saying that Ive made you so obsessed youve lost yourself? So that when you see me, its like youve been enchanted? Are you saying that you getting together with me Lu Feng couldnt continue to listen any longer. He said directly, Yes. Wei Xiaos tail flipped up even higher towards the sky. Yes what? By the time Lu Feng repeated it word for word, Wei Xiaos ears were numb, and he felt incredibly bashful. Captain Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: Im hard. Lu Feng: There was still one last game left in the regular season, which was scheduled for Thursday. Lu Fengs treatment ended on the same day. Hed already booked his return ticket. Wei Xiaos heart had been drifting happily over the past few days. When he saw Bai Cai, he opened his mouth to say, There are still 52 hours. Bai Cai: Ah? Wei Xiao: 52 hours, 59 minutes, 57 seconds. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao: 52 hours, 59 minutes, 53 seconds. Bai Cai: What are you acting crazy about now? Wei Xiao said darkly, Theres still 52 hours, 59 minutes, and 30 seconds before the Captain comes back. Bai Cai: Can you f*cking act like a person?! Wei Xiao continued to count quietly, and Bai Cai couldnt listen on anymore. Wake up! Thursdays RR game is really important! Wei Xiao: Oh, 52 hours, 58 minutes Bai Cai wished he could hammer him on the head. Do you want to get first place in the group or not! Wei Xiao: 52 hours, 5 Of course we have to get first place. Bai Cai rolled his eyes. Wei Xiao: First place in the group, first place in the domestic competition, first place in the global competition. Our captain will take countless first places! Well, 52 hours, 57 Bai Cai didnt give him any chance to keep counting. He interrupted him, Dont focus on how we have one more point than RR does. If we lose this game, well draw even with RR! If the game points are the same, theyll look at net points. Old Wei, wake up, we only have one more point than RR. Even if we lose 2:1, well be reduced to second place! Brother Cai had circled around the topic, but in fact, one only needed to look at the rankings to understand. FTW had maintained their first place position in the group for the regular season, but they werent far ahead from the pack. RR was very fierce, biting at their heels in second place, wanting to turn the tables and screw them over. At this time, there was a one point difference in their total points, and there was also only a one point difference in their net points. Tomorrows game was a decisive battle. If FTW won, they would be at the top with a 2 point margin. If RR won, they would really be like serfs overthrowing their lords, pressing FTW down into second place for the regular season. So, the final regular season game between FTW and RR was very important. Primarily, it was very important for the Wei Xiao who liked to issue fierce challenges. In fact, getting first or second in the group wasnt very important, because they were all winners and would be treated almost the same way in the playoffs. Wei Xiao stopped counting down. Bai Cai was relieved. Prepare for the fight, and use first place to welcome the captain back to the team. Wei Xiaos heart was moved. Alright then, Ill start counting again after the game. Bai Cai: . To hell with your counting! Chapter 170.2: Lu Feng: Im back. The opening game was over. Fu Li sent Wei Xiao a message the next day, When the big brawl replay is released, Ill sort out the data and send it over to you. Wei Xiao replied, No rush, no rush, I believe Captain Fu. Fu Li: Ha. If you really believed me, you wouldnt have taken a screenshot! A big brawl with 100 people fighting had to be different from an ordinary team competition. The multiview video broadcast had to be integrated together, and the game organizers had to put together a collection of some of the most eye-catching operations in order to draw another round of traffic, so the teams that wanted to do replay reviews would have to wait a few days. Wei Xiao wasnt in a hurry. He and Lu Feng had already agreed to watch the replay together after he came back. When it came to ten light arcs and other such things, he wanted to praise Lu Feng about it again, to his face! Obviously Wei Little Xiao had already completely forgotten about what had happened in the Moonlight Wetland. At 8PM on Thursday night, the venue for the competition filled up early. The residual enthusiasm from the opening game was still there, and everyone was very excited to see FTW. They had stopped being so worried about whether or not Close was there or not a long time ago. FTW games? They came to watch Quiet go wild! Wei Xiaos original popularity hadnt been low, and now, there were even more support groups. Light signs were everywhere, and there were a lot of love confessions. The financing side saw the potential for money, and most of the FTW fan merchandise sold outside was related to Quiet. Due to his fierce words during the opening game, his fans had given him a new favorite nicknameCCthe wolfish and tiger-like Little Lunatic Wei. There was a group of fans whod made a very cute version of it; the front was a chibi version of Wei Xiao, with tiger ears and big cat paws, howling and whining fiercely, and the back was a chibi version of him with a big, wagging gray wolf tail that was about to shake its way up to the sky! It was both a tiger and a wolf, very thoughtful. There were many Q fangirls with tiger ears that would light up when they shook their heads, making a large, illuminated Q appear over their heads. It was very cute. Unfortunately, Wei Xiao was a little far away from the audience and couldnt see it clearly. FTW and RR were old rivals. They didnt bother with polite words when they met. They just had to fight and be done with it. On FTWs side, Wei Xiao dropped a series of fierce words. Yep, it was for the three little ones. This is the last game of our regular season. Little Ning: Yes, yes, yes. Wei Xiao: Do you know what this means? Brother Cai really wanted to roll his eyes. Little Ning rushed to answer first, First place in the group! Wei Xiao nodded, And? Little Ning cheered, The captain is coming back! Grandmaster Weis mouth curved. Yes, and? Little Ning: ??? He was a little stuck. Wei Xiao looked at Yue Wenle, who was quietly gnawing on chips to the side. You answer. Old Yue: Wei Xiao shot Bai Cai a glance. Bai Cai felt the threat and acted as though he would snatch away the chips, causing Yue Wenle to speak up immediately, Last time, we lost to RR, so this time, we cant lose! Wei Xiao nodded, but he still continued asking, And? What else could there be? Even Bai Cai was a little confused at this time. Was there any other meaning to this game? The last game in the regular season. Theyd take first place in their group if they won, and they could stand up straight and puff up their chests when they welcomed their captain back to the team, and get even for past regrets What else was there besides all that? His teammates were all dazed. Quiet sighed. Wei Xiao highlighted the key point. This is Brother Tangs last game. This one sentence shocked the three little ones. Chen Feng and Tang Chen, whod just arrived at the entrance of the lounge, stopped walking. Wei Xiaos attitude was serious for once, and his words went straight to the softest place in peoples hearts, Brother Tang has persisted for us for so long, so this game is one that we must win. The three little ones had all their passion inspired, We must win! We have to win beautifully! Yes, we have to make it a wonderful win. We cant let Brother Tang have any regrets! Uh-huh! No regrets! The steadfast Tang Chen, who was still standing outside, felt his eyes heat up. Chen Fengs heart also felt a little sore when he heard this. Wei Xiao was the craziest player hed ever met, but he was also the softest player hed ever met. He was such a strange child, it was no wonder Lu Feng kept him at the tip of his heart. When they went up onto the court, even the audience could feel FTWs momentum. The commentators also said, Its the last game. It seems that FTW places a lot of importance on winning this game. Close is about to return. They must want to present their captain with a perfect result. Of course, RR isnt weak either. It seems that it will be a tough fight tonight. Lets see who the title of first place in the group will go to! At the start of the game, RR instantly banned the shadow thief, and FTW fought tooth for tooth, banning the immortal warlock. Tang Chen, who never spoke during the BP segment, spoke up, Get me the space-time knight. FTWs four little ones were stunned for a moment. Chen Feng laughed briefly. Okay. Wei Xiao was immediately fired up. Ill take the berserker thief! Ning Zhehan sat up straight as well. Spirit mage! Yue Wenle: Frost hunter. Brother Cai took a tanky support. Giant shaman. Chen Feng: You must be dreaming. Well see what RR takes. It was unknown if RR was taking them lightly, or if they hadnt expected FTW to take the space-time knight again, so they actually released quite a few of the positions. At the end of the day, except for Brother Cai who switched to the earth priest, everyone else got what they wanted. The space-time knight This talent, which had helped FTW make a come-back and turn things around during the regular season, stunned the audience for half a second when it appeared. Immediately after, rounds of applause burst out as everyone understood. The commentator woke up as well, This game This game was God Tangs curtain call. This game would be Tang Chens last battle. Tang Chen, whod guarded FTW during all its ups and downs. Tang Chen, whod witnessed the age of the Team of Gods and also experienced FTWs lowest point. Hed held the world championship cup three years ago and had also seen the empty ruins of FTW. He wasnt as dazzling as Close nor was he a mastermind like Chen Feng. He was the substitute player in the Team of Gods whod had no chance to play, and he was the solid support for the new FTW. He was the veteran who would retire after winning the domestic championship due to his declining state, and he was also the Brother Tang who supported four little ones in the face of danger after Close left the team! The new FTWCC There were the twin stars, Close and Quiet. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle, who were on the rise. Bai Cai, whod regained his enthusiasm and was holding up the support beam. Only Tang Chen had been ignored, forgotten and overlooked by many people. But his teammates remembered. All hed done, everything hed sacrificed, and all of his sweat had been imprinted onto FTWs team emblem. The black and white double swords crossed where the words FTW was carved out in the center. For the win. For the sake of victory, for the sake of everyones victory! In this game, FTW played extremely well. Wei Xiaos berserker thief led the rhythm of the game up to the heavens, and Ning Zhehan changed up his old timid style with a spirit mage that was both treacherous and unpredictable, making Moonlits nerves tense up. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle also played out a perfect cooperation on the bottom lane. The developed frost hunter became the core of the team in the later stages. This time, Tang Chens space-time knight didnt have to resurrect four dead teammates on the spot like hed done when they played against 3U. Because it wasnt necessary. His teammates wouldnt fall. They were fighting for him. His teammates used their strength to tell him: We can do it, were able to do it, please rest assured. The game was over. FTW won against RR with an absolutely crushing score. When he took off the headset, the rims of Tang Chens eyes were red. Every member of the audience who saw this scene also felt their eyes grow red with emotion. The old fans whod followed FTW all the way to the present even started crying directly. Until someone yelled, Dont cry, Brother Tang! FTWs future is promising! After that, someone followed suit and yelled, Yeah, FTWs future is promising! After three years of wind and rain, new branches had emerged from the empty ruins. The current FTW really had a promising future. Lu Feng, whod finished packing up, turned off the live broadcast and sent out a Weibo postCC Im back. Chapter 171.2: Will todays God Q act like a person? Wei Xiao couldnt sleep, but Brother Cais eyelids were fighting with him. He panicked. What exactly do you want to do! Wei Xiao nestled into the sofa and propped his chin up on the pillow. I dont know. Bai Cai: Play games? Although he was super sleepy, who told him to be unlucky enough to know such a beast?! Wei Xiao pouted. Too weak. Bai Cai gritted his teeth, Ill keep you company in the professional server! Wei Xiao was relentless. Youre too weak. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao even added insult to injury, In my current state, I cant carry you to win. The implication was that when Laozi was in a good state, they could still wreck havoc on heaven and earth even if Bai Cai was weak. But now that Brother Xiao wasnt in a good state, they would only be abused if they went to play. Bai Cais heart was filled with displeasure, but he had nothing he could say to that. He asked grumpily, Then, what do you want to do? Inexplicably, Brother Cai could also feel the phenomenon where every second felt like a year. He could only plead for the captain to come back quickly, as quickly as possible. Wei Xiao cleared his throat. Want to chat? Bai Cai knew that there was a trap waiting for him in this direction, but he headed over anyway. What do you want to talk about. Wei Xiao became energetic. Of course well chat about the captain! Bai Cai: Really, Brother Cai was tired of listening to it, really, really tired of listening to it. If he was given another chance, he would never want to know about this underground love! Wei Xiao wouldnt let him go so easily. Do you know when I started to like the captain? Brother Cais face was expressionless. Winter training camp. Wei Xiao: No, it was two years ago Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: You might not believe it if I tell you, but I saw one of Closes games back then. I didnt even know what he looked like, but I just Brother Cai had already heard about this unimportant and pointless story 800 times. Hed definitely heard it at least 800 times. He really couldnt pretend to be surprised anymore and could only act like Brother Soy and listen on listlessly. Wei Xiao: You know it? Brother Cai was so sleepy, his vision was blurring. Mm Wei Xiao: I think you might not have understood it, so Ill say it again There was a splat sound. Brother Cai and Brother Soy both fell to the ground. After talking for three hours until his mouth was dry, Wei Xiao finally let the vegetable and the dog off. It was already seven oclock in the morning, and there was still At least four hours. Wei Xiao looked at his cell phone, then looked out the window. He was really out of options and simply went out for a run. The May weather had warmed up. He wore a short sleeved shirt and long pants and soon worked up a sweat from running. Hed stayed up all night and had now run for five kilometers, but he was still filled with energy. This was enough to show how excited he was. If this was called missing Lu Feng, he really did miss him. But it wasnt so simple as just missing him. He was in a state where he couldnt hold down his emotions or keep his heart steady in his chest. It was difficult to sit still. Wei Xiao took a shower, looked at the time, and continued to sigh. Normally, he was always the one messing with other peoples mentality, but now, his own mentality had collapsed. So this was what it felt to have ones mentality collapse. It really didnt feel good. With two hours left, Wei Xiao sat down in front of the computer and started up his live broadcast. How boring he was too bored Although he couldnt talk nonsense in the live broadcast room, he could have his fans look at his ID and vent a little. Of course, there was also another reason: He had to accumulate live broadcast time so that he could be happy without any constraints when the captain came back! Countless fans poured in as soon as Wei Xiao started up his live broadcast. Its eight oclock in the morning Did God Q get up so early? I received the live broadcast notification just after I arrived at the company. Should I watch or should I stare at it? Did Baby Q not sleep all night? Mama wont allow you to not take care of your body! Wei Xiao greeted everyone, then logged into the game. He entered the professional server. After winter training camp, the competition committee had tasted this sweetness and finally put together a professional server after a long delay. As the name suggested, the professional server only allowed registered professional players to login. In the minds of players, it was similar to a realm of gods. There were many professional players from various competition zones all over the world. There were those who were currently active, those who were retired, those in the second or even third teams, and those who were currently making their way up from the youth training camp. There were definitely a lot of people. The professional player circle was also like a pyramid model. There were few top-notch players, but there were many players in lower tiers, enough to cover the sky, and there were no shortages of masters. Setting up a professional server was a good thing. It gave more players with potential a chance to show off their skills. Wei Xiao didnt have these worries, but he was also happy about the establishment of a professional server. He only had one word to describe how he felt about being able to play so easily against global expertsCCcool! It wasnt compulsory for players to use their professional IDs, but official identification was required for login. After the identification process, they could change their IDs however they liked. Wei Xiaos ID was very dazzling: I Like Close The Most. In any case, hed already confessed all over the world. What was a mere professional server? Laozi would use it openly. The audience laughed knowingly when they saw this ID, Will todays God Q act like a person? What are you talking about? The end of the world hasnt arrived yet. This was a golden sentence from the fansCCGod Q would act like a person when the world ended. It was 8 oclock in the morning, but the professional server was bustling with activity. After all, it was a worldwide server, and it was a busy period for many competition zones. Wei Xiao had just been about to start solo queueing when he saw a message. He opened it casually; it turned out to be a friend request. Wei Xiao looked at the ID. Eh Originally, he didnt want to add anyone, but now he accepted the request instantly. Wei Xiao sent a message over tentatively, God Yan? Since IDs could be changed at will, it could be a professional support player who admired God Yan and changed their ID to Yan. Yan: Mm. This tone didnt seem like a fake. Wei Xiao blinked, Whats the matter? A team invitation was sent over. Of course, it came from Captain Yan. The live broadcast room scrolling comments were going crazy. Holy shit, its God Yan! Is it really God Yan? It really is! How many years has it been since my God Yan added a friend? Three plus years probably Quiet is badass! Im jealous, Im jealous. I admire him, I admire him. There were also some strange messagesCCHes green, hes green. Wei Xiao didnt look at the scrolling comments. He asked Yan Jiang, Queue? Yan Jiang: Go. Wei Xiao had been aimless to start with. Okay. After saying so, he added, But Im not in a good state. Yan Jiang: ? Wei Xiao explained implicitly, The captain is coming back soon, Im nervous. Sigh, the live broadcast was on and he could only explain in such an euphemistic way. Yan Jiang didnt seem to be interested in continuing the conversation. Oh. Wei Xiao was unreconciled. Youre not curious about why Im nervous? Just then, they were matched into a team. Yan Jiang said, Type less if youre in a bad state. Wei Xiao: He didnt want to double queue anymore! Forget it. After all, this was Glorys number one support, his captains former captain, and hed also tricked him during the big brawl. Wei Xiao held on. But typing less was impossible. Wei Xiao was now hoping to distract himself by talking. I Like Close The Most: What do you want to use? Yan: Anything is fine. I Like Close The Most: Im in a bad state, Ill use the shadow thief. Yan: Although Yan Jiang didnt ask, the fans in the scrolling comments understood Little Lunatic Wei too well and helped him answer, If Quiet is in a good state, hell also use the shadow thief! In any case, he just wanted to use the shadow thief! Their teammates were a bunch of messy IDs. They didnt know them at all, and it was obvious they didnt understand Chinese. When they saw Yans ID, they were surprised for a moment and typed out a few sentences in bad English. Yan Jiang didnt reply. Wei Xiao felt that his English wasnt bad, but he couldnt understand what they were trying to say. From this, it could be seen that these teammates mother tongue must be some other language. After entering the game, Wei Xiao was still chattering, God Yan, go and help the bottom lane. Im afraid I wont even be able to brush out eight light arcs in this game. Wei Xiao wasnt being modest. He was really not in the right state of mind and had even forgotten his own account password last night. The fact that he still remembered how to do combos with the shadow thief was enough to prove that he really loved the shadow thief. As for light arcs, it would be up to fate however many he could do would be however many he did. Yan Jiang: Play casually. Wei Xiao: I can only play casually now. At the start, Wei Xiao slowly worked on killing the blue buff while the other side started off fiercely. They came over, wanting to steal his blue buff and his life, making it clear that they wanted to bully him. Wei Xiao: He was a little angry. Two minutes later, he ran into the other side at the red buff. Wei Xiao: He was a little angry, times two. Five minutes later, the other side caught him in the bushes near the mid-lane. Wei Xiao turned on his mic, If Laozi doesnt show his tigers might, are you going to continue treating him like a sick cat?! To hell with his state being bad! This young master was going to kill you all! Wei Xiao: Captain Yan, come with me. Yan Jiang clicked on the teleport skill directly and landed in the small dragon cave. Wei Xiao looked at the minimap. Good! As soon as he spoke, he moved to the dragon cave, and Yan Jiang arrived at the same time. They had no vision on the minimap, but it didnt prevent Yan Jiang from landing and using a light gate right away, capturing both players and the dragon. Wei Xiaos experience bar had just reached level six. He unlocked the light arcs. There was a series of happy cries on the scrolling comments, Nine light arcs, nine light arcs, God Q, hurry up! Wei Xiao was clear in his heart that based on his current state, there was no point thinking about nine light arcs. Even getting out eight light arcs would be pretty good. And then A ray of holy light landed on Wei Xiao, and a ball of light shot out from the dragon, hitting the two enemy heroes. Wei Xiaos hands moved messily, but by the time hed stacked up all his marks, the damage ratio was already as high as 900%. This Without the slightest pause, seemingly out of his control, he watched as nine light arcs burst out into the dragon cave. The live broadcast was going crazy. Quiets mouth is deceptive as hell. Is this what you call I cant even brush out eight light arcs?? Ahhhhh, why is my husband so strong! Wei Xiao took down a double kill and was in an odd mood. Captain Yan Yan Jiang still gave him the same two words, Play casually. Wei Xiao: It really was very casual this was too difficult to describe. Wei Xiao was 100% certain that his state was problematic, but hed really been able to casually brush out nine light arcs. The reason? It was due to Yan Jiangs precise control. Outsiders couldnt see it, but Wei Xiao understood it clearly. Nine light arcs, if it was aimed at dummy targets, then probably 30% of the shadow thief experts in the Glory league could brush it out. However, there were too many uncertainties in actual combat. At present, only Close could brush out nine light arcs whenever he wanted. Wei Xiao was still in a half-dazed state, and his grasp over nine light arcs hadnt reached that level. Now Wei Xiao breathed in lightly. Hed really come to realize Yan Jiangs strength. He could control living people until they were like target dummies. That was why Wei Xiaos nine light arcs had come so easily. The author has something to say: When the captain comes home Hehe Chapter 172.1: Across the whole of Glory, there was only one Yan Jiang. So this was the number one support player in Glory? This was the previous Captain of the FTWs Team of Gods? Sure enough, he was really powerful! Compared to hearing about it, some things were better understood when experienced. Captain Yans support made people feel very comfortable. For example, Brother Cai was the other number one support player besides Captain Yan, but compared with Captain Yan, it was like comparing an eunuch with the emperor. The difference was really too great! Brother Cai, who was hugging Brother Soy and making up for his sleep, Achoo! He sneezed loud enough to shake the heavens. Wei Xiao had always been generous with his praise, Badass, Captain Yan. Yan Jiang: Wei Xiaos keyboard crackled as he typed, Your control just now was really absolute. Isnt the control from the light bullet random? How did you control it to this level? The holy priests light gate could be targeted. As long as it was placed accurately and the players judgement was good enough, it wouldnt be difficult for the player to frame people with the gate. The skill that was difficult to control was the light bullet. The light bullet was also a holy priest core skill. It would bounce off several targets repeatedly, causing a stun that lasted for a short period of time. But because it would bounce back and forth, it could be played out to good effect in group fights. Of course, it was already pretty good like that, but this skill couldnt be controlled too much. The trajectory of the light bullet, the velocity, and the stun time This control required too much detail and it was almost impossible to track everything. But Yan Jiang could. Yan Jiang: Because of the light gate. These five words left the audience in the live broadcast room confused. What-what does he mean? What about the light gate? Because of the light gate, what? The audience didnt understand, but Wei Xiao understood instantly. So thats how it is! Then, he was surprised, too. Your understanding of the holy priest is too thorough! Yan Jiang didnt continue the conversation. Someone in the scrolling comments realized, I get it! The reason why God Yan can control the light bullet so accurately and make a seemingly uncontrollable skill stable enough to lock their opponents in the dragon cave relies on the range determined by the light gate This person had spoken the truth. It was really difficult to determine the trajectory in a large space, but when the range was limited to just the light gate, then it became possible to calculate. Um I understand the logic, but even with the light gate, it requires judging an opponents position in such a short time, selecting the right target, using the right angle, and calculating the trajectory and speed of the light bullet Sorry, Ive disturbed you. I dont deserve to play holy priest! During this 5v5 game, Yan Jiang displayed the limits of a support players ability to control their opponents. Wei Xiao was really in a bad state, and his mind was really restless, but towards the mid and late stages of the game, he became completely immersed in the game, slaughtering his way across all three lanes and leaving the other side with no course of resistance. His mood wasnt great, and he was in a bad state. But it didnt matter, he just had to play casually. Yan Jiang could easily mobilize all his fighting power, going up against the heavens, the earth, and even the air. Victory! Wei Xiao stared at the settlement panel for a long time. I Like Close The Most: 18 kills, 0 deaths, 0 assists. Hed dealt 50% of the teams damage. Yan: 0 kills, 1 death, 18 assists. His effective healing rate was 79%. This data could be seen throughout the live broadcast room. The audience sucked in a breath and exclaimedCC What kind of immortal support player was this! Wei Xiao had 18 kills and zero deaths, but the most important thing was his 0 assists. What did this mean? It meant that in all the kills hed participated in, all of the kills had been his. All of them! This head harvesting ability was so strong that it didnt seem human. 50% of the teams total damage was also a very exaggerated value. It was important to know that Wei Xiao was playing the jungler position. Although the jungler position was a strong DPS dealing position, there was still a big gap when it was compared with the mid-laner and ADC. In general, in a normal match, the mid-lane and ADC should account for over 60% of the total damage dealt. Now, Wei Xiaos jungler had dealt more damage than the mid-laner and ADC put together. Was it that Wei Xiao was too strong? He really was strong. But he really wasnt that strong. It was completely because Yan Jiang had fed him well, seizing the right timing so that Wei Xiao could fearlessly show off his operations. Looking at Yan Jiangs data was also enough to make others feel a thrill. The essence of a support player was to not snatch kills and take resources so hed gotten 18 assists with no kills, and the number of his assists equaled the same number of kills Wei Xiao had obtained. This meant that hed been involved in all of Wei Xiaos kills. Then, looking at the only death in his stats. The audience had already memorised that scene a long time ago. The other side had been beaten until their mentality collapsed like a bloody avalanche. The four of them piled up on Wei Xiao at a spot where he had to pass by, wanting to put their lives on the line to kill him at least once. Yan Jiangs vision had been cleared, and he couldnt see anything, but the overall situation was so quiet that it could be inferred that their opponents were waiting to gank. Wei Xiao understood this even without Yan Jiangs prompting. He stepped into the trap, using his amazing hand speed to pull back, but who couldve known that Yan Jiang would type out a single word, Go. Wei Xiao: ! There wasnt enough time to communicate. The holy priests skills popped up, healing him while exposing the positions of all four players. Wei Xiao instinctively knew what to do. Captain Yan had controlled them so well, he wouldnt be a man if he didnt go up and fight! Making use of his hand speed and his superior farm, Wei Xiaos light arcs covered the sky, and he took down a quadrakill in exchange for Yan Jiangs life. Captain Yan died. But hed let Wei Xiao take down four people on his own, making the other sides mentality explode completely. This death was too worth it! Looking at the nearly 80% of effective healing, if they really released this screenshot, it would make countless senior Glory fans laugh. This photoshopped image is really too much! 79% effective healing? Why not just photoshop it to be 100%. However, this was the live broadcast, and theyd seen it with their own eyes. It was impossible to falsify. It had really happened! Effective healing and total healing were two different pieces of data. The former was useful healing, while the latter number included a large amount of overhealing. The former could turn the tides and extend teammates lives indefinitely; the latter could be achieved with ones eyes closed. Effective healing was also an important piece of data when judging the level of a healer. As everyone knew, ordinary players were already considered little immortals if they could reach 20%, and professional players could pass the standard if they reached 30%. If they exceeded 40%, then the game MVP would be given to the support player What kind of concept was 79%? Across the whole of Glory, there was only one Yan Jiang. Wei Xiao was thinking about such things in his heart, but his mouth said, Are FTWs captains all so powerful? There was no need to mention Close; his strength was well known. Yan Jiang Previously, Wei Xiao couldnt understand how a support player could be acknowledged as a god, but now he understood. No matter which position it was, it could be exceedingly tyrannical when played at an extreme level. Wei Xiao was now enjoying himself. Again! This time, he would try to appreciate it seriously. There were too many places where he could learn from Yan Jiang. Yan Jiang: Okay. The two of them queued up for three games in a row without stopping. During these three games, Wei Xiao was lucky enough to get the shadow thief each time. He took this opportunity to experience how it felt to brush out nine light arcs all the time. Previously, he was in a very dazed state when he brushed out the nine light arcs. When he learned about Closes shoulder injury, his brain was blank, leaving nothing but restless energy, and he didnt even know what he was doing. After the event, hed gone over it in his mind carefully, but the more he tried to deliberately find the same feeling, the harder it seemed to be able to find it. The nine light arcs hed brushed out during the big brawl had been completed with Closes guidance. This was very normal; when the two of them soloed, Wei Xiao was always pushed to extremes by Lu Feng and would be able to brush it out. But the nine light arcs he played out at this kind of time was also too difficult for him to understand. Perhaps it was something that needed to be repeated in order to capture the essence, but Wei Xiao didnt know the number of repetitions he needed. Today when he double queued with Yan Jiang, Wei Xiaos feeling for it was very different. This time, his nine light arcs werent emotional, and it wasnt because his brain was blank. He had space to think, and it was like there was a camera providing him with a slow-motion visual experience. Perhaps it was Yan Jiangs control that spared him the effort so that he could have space to think. The more he played, the more immersed he grew. Wei Xiao had just been about to say that they should play again. Yan Jiang spoke, Big brawl? Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment. Yan Jiang: Doubles. Wei Xiao: Lets go! The fans whod been watching the live broadcast for two hours went crazy. What did Captain Yan say???? Fellow sisters, take a screenshot! If this is let out, itll make everyones chins drop. Its well known that God Yan never plays in singles or doubles. What kind of big treasure is Quiet? He actually made God Yan break his own rules on his own initiative! There were two modes for the big brawl. One mode was to enter the arena on their own, which was just like the opening game where 100 players fought against each other, and other than themselves, the other 99 players were all opponents that they should kill when they meet. The second mode was to team up, but it wasnt a team battle like 5v5, but a team of two. It had replaced the previous doubles competition. When the two-man team entered the arena, they wouldnt harm their teammates when they used their skills, and at the same time, support players could also be of use. Yan Jiang and Wei Xiao switched out of the professional server and went to the international server. The big brawl naturally couldnt be held in the professional server. There werent enough people, and they might have to queue until they died. Chapter 172.2: Wei Xiao had waited for him for an entire regular season. After going to the international servers, the two soon queued in, selecting their four talents before being sent to their starting point. Wei Xiao was amused when he saw where they were. The Battlesong Plains. The scrolling comments: Oh boy, brothers in Battlesong, run quickly! The wolf is coming, the wolf is coming! What wolf? Its the little demon king who screws with the heavens and the earth! Landing in the Battlesong Plains really felt too cool. They could kill without saying anything. Wei Xiao couldnt be any happier. If, in 5v5, Yan Jiang could take Wei Xiao to fight two against five, then when it came to the big brawl, the two of them could go up against the remaining 98 players. The fans: I get it. I understand why Captain Yan doesnt play in the doubles. I get it, too. I get it +ID number. With this support, do other people even have a way to live on in the doubles?! I feel heartache for the other 98 people in the big brawl. Wei Xiao took the same four talents hed used for the opening game, and his operations made peoples scalp feel numb. This time, not only could Yan Jiang provide control, he could also heal and provide buffs to Wei Xiao one after another. After a round of fighting, the Battlesong Plains were filled with corpses, and Wei Little Xiaos clothing drifted in the wind as he stood there with full health. The outer zones, central zone, and finals circle. When Wei Xiao picked up Sky Islands Heart, he sighed, Too easy. At the end of the day, they were fighting against casual players. How could they hold up against this devilish combination?! The game ended, and Yan Jiang asked once more, Again? Wei Xiao had just wanted to type when he abruptly noticed the time. No more, no more! Wei Xiao spoke hurriedly, Im not playing anymore! Holy shit, there was only less than an hour left. He had to go and pick up the captain! Yan Jiang: ? Wei Xiao didnt dare to talk about the airport pickup while broadcasting as he was afraid of being blocked by fans. He just said, Its not early anymore. If the coach sees that Im not sleeping, Ill be shot down on the spot. This was a good excuse, and the fans didnt think too much about it. The audience in the scrolling comments all urged him to go to bed. Wei Xiao said goodbye to the audience, then turned off the live broadcast before typing to Yan Jiang, My captain is about to get off the plane. Im going to go pick him up. Yan Jiang didnt reply. Wei Xiao: Im leaving, bye. Yan Jiang: Okay. Wei Xiao logged out of the game and pulled on his jacket, preparing to go out. Hed been too excited when playing the game just now, and his mood had evened out quite a lot. Now that he was about to leave, he started to feel anxious again. His heart thumped hard, and his brain was filled with Lu Feng. The damned corners of his lips couldnt be pressed down. He was back, he was back. The captain was back! Wei Xiao breathed in, then went out in his casual clothing He hadnt yet flagged down a car when a message came through on his cell phone, Awake? Wei Xiaos eyes grew wide, Are you off the plane already??? How did he arrive ahead of time! Lu Feng called him directly. Wei Xiaos fingers trembled as he accepted the call, Im heading to the airport right away. Wait for me. He was going to go pick him up. Theyd agreed on it. Lu Feng had just taken a 12 hour flight, and his voice was a little hoarse. No need. Wei Xiao immediately said, No way, Ill Lu Feng laughed briefly, Ill send you a location, go there and wait for me. Wei Xiaos head was covered in question marks. Lu Feng: If we set out at the same time, well be able to meet sooner. Wei Xiao: ! His heart instantly felt like it was stuffed with a piece of sugar. He could feel the sweetness in his throat. Yeah! Lu Feng sent him a position. Wei Xiao got into the car, then asked, Where is this? Lu Feng was likely going through the airport customs and didnt reply. Wei Xiao stared at it for a while, Water City Mansion? Hed heard of this place. It was a very famous community, with suffocatingly high house prices. Forget it, he would go wherever the captain asked him to go, and he wouldnt hesitate! Wei Xiao was delighted the whole way there. He even felt that the scenery outside the car window was very pleasant. The driver was a middle-aged uncle. When he saw his appearance through the rearview mirror, he said in amusement, Young fellow, are you going to see your girlfriend? Wei Xiao was a little surprised. Big brother, youre really perceptive! His mouth was so sweet right now that he could call an auntie big sister, and uncle became big brother. The driver was wild with joy over this form of address. Of course, Im an experienced person. Wei Xiao was in a good mood and was willing to chat, Ive been separated from them for a really long time. They just came back today. Chinese was broad and profound, and the driver uncle didnt suspect anything. Its not easy having a long distance relationship. It was alright when Wei Xiao didnt speak, but once he started he couldnt stop. Yeah, I think about them every day, and I miss them so much I cant sleep. The driver uncle smiled broadly. It sounds like you have an excellent girlfriend. Wei Xiao: Big brother, youre wrong. What do you mean, excellent? I um using the word excellent to describe them is too insulting The highest level of rainbow farts was to exaggeratedly boast to someone who didnt understand the situation, making them feel as though it was raining flowers. By the time they arrived at the destination, the driver uncle was regretting it. If hed known that this brat would have such a toxic mouth, he wouldnt have tried to strike up a conversation! In this half hour drive, the drivers head had been stuffed full of details of his girlfriend who couldnt merely be described as excellent, but could only be described as the number one person across the heavens and the earth! Wei Xiao still wasnt finished by the time they arrived. Goodbye, big brother. The driver waved his hand. Goodbye, goodbye! When Wei Xiao got out of the car, the midday sun was already growing strong. Golden lines of light fell down, covering the green leaves on the camphor trees with a layer of gold. Wei Xiao unconsciously narrowed his eyes, then noticed the man standing beneath the tree. Fine gold streaks passed through the branches and fell on his firm shoulder. The speckled light was like a series of scattered stars, landing playfully on his pale neck and along his shoulders. The cool tone of his skin seemed as if it had frozen the glittering sunlight, preventing the light from moving any further so that his beautiful jaw and cold, thin lips remained out of reach. Hidden by the shade, the light was unable to drift over his high nose, his deep, dark eyes Out of the suns reach, that pair of dark eyes were now filled with stars after seeing the person who was heading over. Wei Xiao breathed in, then didnt have any attention to spare on how they were still at the side of the road. He gave him a huge hug as soon as he walked over. Lu Fengs lips curved up, and he placed his free hand around him. Ive made you wait for a long time. It was clear that hed been the one who was standing there waiting, and he was clearly waiting for Wei Xiao, but he said that hed kept Wei Xiao waiting for a long time. 76 days. Half a world apart. Wei Xiao had waited for him for an entire regular season. Originally, he hadnt felt aggrieved. He hadnt felt bitter, and he hadnt wanted to cry. However, when Wei Xiao heard Lu Fengs words, his emotions, which had been in turmoil all day and night, softened into pools of water. He couldnt squeeze down the feeling in his chest, and it shot straight to the tip of his nose. Captain Mm. I missed you so much. Me too. The driver uncle saw the figures of two people embracing each other as he drove away. Girlfriend?! Hm This girlfriend was so tall! The community had strictly controlled entrances. Lu Feng took him upstairs, while Wei Xiao kept his head bowed the whole time. His eyes were too red, and it would be too shameful if they ran into someone. There was no one else in the elevator. The air was so quiet that only the sound of their breathing could be heard. Wei Xiao didnt dare to move because there was a camera over the top of their heads. First floor, second floor, third floor He stared at the numbers until they reached the 26th floor. Wei Xiaos heart almost jumped right out as he counted. Why is it such a high floor? He couldnt help speaking. Lu Fengs voice was a little dry. Sorry. Wei Xiao blinked, What are you sorry for. Lu Feng: Being on such a high floor. Wei Xiao was amused. What place is this? Lu Feng: The place I lived before I joined the team. Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide, Your home? Lu Feng paused. Its a residence. Wei Xiao wanted to ask more, but the elevator door opened. Lu Feng finally couldnt hold back. He grabbed him by the wrist and pulled him out of the elevator. The elevator faced a single door. He used his fingerprint to unlock the door, and it opened with a click. Wei Xiao didnt even get to see what the interior was like before Lu Feng pressed him up against the back of the door and kissed him on the lips. There was a bang as his luggage was thrown aside, and all that was left was the other partys constant gasps. Wei Xiao was kissed until his scalp went numb. He didnt have any attention to spare on anything else; his eyes and heart were filled with Lu Feng, and he couldnt do anything except to respond. Kiss, gasp, and whisper each others names. Wei Xiaos face was red, his ears were crimson, and he tried to suppress his moans. Lu Feng pinched his delicate earlobe. Call out for me. Wei Xiaos clear voice was so sweet it made his heart go soft. Captain Lu Feng: No. Wei Xiaos heart beat so fast it wanted to jump out of his throat. Boyfriend Lu Feng leaned down and kissed him. Mm. Wei Xiao could only see white in front of his eyes. His back was pressed up against the cold security door, but it was unable to cool down his body. After Wei Xiao recovered his senses, Lu Feng picked him up. Wei Xiao exclaimed in surprise. Your shoulderC Lu Feng: Its fine. Wei Xiao was still worried. But Lu Feng wouldnt set him down, and he also didnt dare to struggle out of fear that he might pull something. It wasnt far from the door to the bathroom. Who wouldve dared to think that when Wei Xiao came to a completely strange place, the first place he would set foot in would be the bathtub? He refused to behave as they bathed. He was right at the age of hot-blooded vitality, and he would get excited about anything. By the time they went to the bedroom, Wei Xiao was humming and purring like a satisfied cat. Lu Feng kissed his hair, which seemed to want to curl, and asked, Can we? How could the current Wei Xiao not understand? Although he was a little scared and a little flustered, but hed rather die trying than lose face. Wei Xiao wrapped his arms around his neck and pasted himself close to his ear. His voice trembled, Captain Mm. Do me. xiin: (finally!) Chapter 173.1: World of two Wei Xiao spoke boldly in a moment of passion, but he was still so shy that his cheeks reddened. His gaze was on the floor, and his eyelashes trembled. Lu Feng couldnt bear it. He lowered his head and kissed him. Wei Xiao closed his eyes and clenched his fingers around his forearm; he was so nervous that his knuckles were pale. Lu Fengs heart grew soft again. Dont be scared. Wei Xiao gasped. Im not scared. Lu Feng laughed quietly and rubbed the tip of his nose. Its okay, we still have a long time ahead of us. We can take it slowly. Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide. Lu Fengs voice was full of restraint and forbearance. Youre still young. His Wei Little Xiao was only 19 years old. But what kind of person was Wei Xiao? One of his tenets of life was that coaxing was more effective than demanding. If someone went up to antagonize him, hed hit them right back. But the captains soft candy left him feeling so sweet that he was dizzy in an instant. No way Wei Xiao licked his lower lip. We cant waste time. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao went to hold a place he shouldnt touch, his gaze hot. Even if we live to be 100 years old, we only have 80 years left. We must cherish every minute and do everything we want to do. Lu Feng looked at him, his eyes very deep. Wei Xiaos Adams apple convulsed. He asked, Do you want to do it? Lu Feng took a breath and bit him on the neck, his actions rough. Wei Xiao shrunk back slightly, but his words were frank and direct, I want you, too. As soon as these words came out, all the reason in Lu Fengs mind disappeared. It would hurt him. He was still young. They still had a lot of time. All of his worries disappeared completely due to Wei Xiaos words. Lu Feng kissed him heavily, and the movements of his hands could no longer be called calm and self-controlled. At first, Wei Xiao still managed to bear it, his expression righteous like hed endure until death, but laterCC Captain, captain Hurts Wuwuwu Wei Xiao had guessed early on that he was made of water, but he hadnt expected that he could cry to this extent! It was so painful that he couldnt stop crying, but he was also crying when it didnt hurt. He cried when it went fast and when it was slow; he also Even someone as shameless as Wei Little Xiao felt that he was too embarrassing to be seen! Later, Wei Xiao passed out directly. There was no helping it; even without the physical exertion, he hadnt slept for a whole day and night. His spirit had been tense for such a long time, and hed tired himself out. Now that he was snuggled up with the person hed thought of endlessly, his nerves relaxed, and he fell asleep messily. Lu Feng carried him to the bathroom. Wei Xiao was resting his chin against his shoulder so obediently that Lu Feng felt like his body was on fire. When they hadnt done it, hed wanted to do it so badly. Now that theyd done it, he wanted it even more fiercely. Lu Feng sucked in a light breath and kissed him. Little Xiao. Wei Xiao couldnt open his eyes anymore. Mm Lu Feng closed his eyes briefly. Just for a while. Wei Xiao had really been convinced thoroughly, and his mouth was now very honest. No, no captain mm. The ending tone of his voice rolled straight to the tip of heart. When he opened his eyes again, it was already 24 hours later. Wei Xiao was sleeping in a strange bed, but his heart was very steadfast. It was just the places that should hurt Eh, it didnt seem to hurt so much! Wei Xiao blinked and examined the feeling. Holy sh*t! Was he really okay?! Was Laozi really so talented?? Wei Xiao tried to get up. He was just about to sit up when he fell back down. It hurt! How could it possibly not hurt! It had been such a big thing. It would be strange if it didnt hurt him to death. Presumably, the captain had helped him with the aftercare and applied some medicine after he fell asleep. The effect of the medicine was amazing, so it was alright if he didnt move about randomly. The door opened, and Lu Feng came in with a glass of milk. Youre awake? Wei Xiao lay there on the pillow and called out to him pitifully, Captain. Lu Feng sat down beside the bed. Mm. Wei Xiao: Hurts. Lu Feng stroked his soft hair. Ill use some more medicine later. Wei Xiao: No matter how shameless he was, his cheeks still flushed at this moment. He buried himself in the pillows. Lu Feng was amused. He coaxed him, Get up and eat something. Wei Xiaos pair of beautiful eyes appeared again. I dont dare move. Lu Feng: Have a cup of sweetened milk first. Ill go bring the food over. Wei Xiaos eyes darted around, and he grew energetic again. Feed me. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao pouted. Last night, you almost f*cked me until How could Lu Feng dare to let him finish? He interrupted his words, Just wait. Wei Xiao forgot the pain after his recovery, oh, wait, hed forgotten the pain even from before his recovery. His eyes curved, making the dimples at his eyes even more obvious. His smile was sweet and evil. Faster~ This sound and this word successfully made Lu Fengs steps pause. Wei Xiaos own face flushed after he spoke, his heart starting to pound. Lu Feng ultimately managed to hold on. He headed straight to the dining room and was able to remain steady as he brought in the hot congee that had been cooked over several hours. Drinking milk was okay, since there was a straw, and he could drink it on his stomach. But he had to sit up to eat the congee. Even if the bed was soft, Wei Xiao still whimpered and whined a little. Lu Feng was worried about him. Does it hurt? In fact, Wei Xiao was actually alright. It was really within a tolerable range, but he couldnt help himself in the face of Lu Fengs demeanor. It hurts QAQ. Lu Feng kissed him on the forehead. Bear with it for a while; you should eat something. Wei Xiaos heart was itchy. I dont want to eat anymore. Lu Fengs heart still ached for him. In that case, what do you want to eat? Ill make it for you. But it should be something light. Wei Xiao tugged on his sleeve. In fact, Im not hungry. Lu Feng was stunned for a moment. Wei Xiao had first started seeking death a long time ago. You fed me so much last night Lu Feng: Although Wei Xiao was in a daze towards the end, he was certain that the captain had done it again in the bathroom., How could I be hungry hey Lu Feng placed a spoonful of congee near his lips. Wei Xiao swallowed it down, and the hunger bug in his stomach instantly woke up. How fragrant! It would be strange if he wasnt hungry. It wasnt this mouth of his that had been fed full last night. After wolfing down a big bowl of congee, Wei Xiao became even more energetic. Lu Feng had eaten breakfast already. After cleaning up for a while, he came back to the bedroom. Wei Xiao beckoned to him, and Lu Feng sat down beside the bed. Wei Xiao leaned against him and rubbed against him hard. Whats the plan for today? Lu Feng kissed the tips of his hair. Theres no plan. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up. Are we staying here? Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao got up to kiss him on the chin. Thats great. Lu Feng also bowed his head to kiss him. Have a good rest. Ive already asked for leave for you with the club. He really had asked for leave. Chen Feng looked at this leave note, and black lines had appeared all over his head. Xiang Liu cleared his throat. Theyll be back in two or three days at most. Chen Feng sighed. Yeah. What else could they do? The two lovers had been separated for so long. The whole world wouldnt be able to stop them from indulging in their world of two. Besides Who would dare to stop them! This note was obviously written in Lu Fengs handwriting. Who would dare to reject it?! Chen Feng went to the training room and notified everyone, For the next two days, Wei Xiao He casually made something up. His body doesnt feel comfortable so he asked for leave. Little Ning immediately grew nervous. Whats wrong with brother Xiao? Is he okay? He said he was sick two a few days ago, is it so serious? We should go see him As he spoke, he looked at Brother Cai, who was beside him. Brother Cai, who was holding a white porcelain covered bowl and drinking Tie Guanyin that cost 8000 for half a catty, almost sprayed his tea back out: See him? To hell with seeing him! Were they going to go watch a porn film?! Ning Zhehan knew nothing about all of this. Brother Cai, dont be so nervous; Brother Xiao will be fine. Maybe hes just got an upset stomach? In any case, lets go see him now! Chen Feng, whose head was still covered in black lines and now regretted making up a reason on his own: Bai Cai quickly blocked Little Ning. No need! Ning Zhehan: ??? Bai Cai spoke in all earnestness, He-he dont you know how he is? He has to keep up appearances at all costs. If we go see him, he might come back with us on the spot. Little Ning: ! Bai Cai found a way to explain things logically. It wasnt easy sending him off to rest. As soon as he sees us, hell probably rush back to train. Wed better not go and trigger him. Ning Zhehan believed him. Makes sense. Wei Xiaos crazy reputation didnt collapse. Brother Cai had tried his best! Little Ning then sighed. The captain is coming back soon. Its unfortunate that he cant see Brother Xiao right away. Bai Cai: ! At this moment, he almost thought that Ning Zhehan had seen through everything. Fortunately, Little White Ning was still as pure as a sheet of A4 paper. Isnt that right? Our success during the whole regular season was due to Brother Xiao. The captain must want to see him. These big ups and downs made life too difficult for those who were familiar with the situation!! The news of Lu Fengs return had been kept from everyone in the team, except for Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao really couldnt help himself and had secretly told Brother Cai, which was why Brother Cai and Soybean had been poisoned together. Two years ago, Wei Xiao had met Lu Feng for the first time, pestering him for three days and three nights. Now, two years later, Wei Xiao and Lu Feng were entangled together for another three days and three nights. Of course, what they were doing was totally different. During their first three days and three nights, other than solo, he was only focused on solo. During their second three days and three nights, other than Lu Feng, there was only Lu Feng. Dont think that Wei Little Xiao would stop acting so recklessly after he became a man. After becoming a man, he would only be more reckless on top of his original recklessness. What was fortunate was the fact that the great demon king was really worthy of being the great demon king. He hadnt ܳ-ed him to death despite everything, which could be considered inhuman in another sense. Wei Xiao whimpered when the medicine was applied, pitifully calling out that it hurt. Lu Feng didnt say a word. After a while, Wei Xiao changed tunes. The hurting became, Itchy Later? It could only be said that Wei Xiao being unable to get out of bed was really his own fault! By the time his body recovered, Wei Xiao became even more energetic. Flirting with words wasnt fun enough, and it was deadly when he added his body to the mix. Lu Feng pressed him down. Dont make trouble. Wei Xiao kissed him. Ill get used to it if we do it more. In fact, its quite Lu Feng was strict with him for once. Shut up. But Wei Xiao wasnt afraid of him. Captain~ Three days and three nights. Wei Xiao personally proved that: Close Is Very Strong, Close Has Great Skills, and even Close Has Super Endurance Hed even temporarily changed it to a talent! xiin: *old auntie smile* Chapter 173.2: Brother Xiao is so handsome, hes like the hero who saves the beauty! Time spent in a world for two people always passed by quickly. At the end of the day, Wei Xiao was young, and Lu Feng took good care of him. He really adapted very quickly. After he was able to get out of bed and jump around, he finally remembered that he had a cell phone Wei Xiao pulled it out and opened it. Cough. Brother Cai: The captains back? Ten hours later: Where are you? Another half an hour later: F*ck, are you okay? Ten minutes after that: Take it easy, we havent played in the playoffs yet. Dont get X-ed to death! The time frequency between each message grew shorter, Little Lunatic Wei? Are you still alive? Does our FTW still have a jungler king? Holy shit, do you have to go so far? Its been two days! Wei Xiao rubbed at his temples and sent him a reply, So noisy. Brother Cai, whod waited for such a long time and finally received a reply: .. I shouldnt have f*cking worried about you! Amidst Brother Cais mother-in-law-like concern was another eye-catching message. Old Bandit Yuan: Did you pick up Close? Wei Xiao: Old Bandit Yuan: I soloed with him before I left. He still needs to work on finding the feeling. Wei Xiaos heart felt a little sour. Who couldve known that Yuan Ze would send over another sentence? Ill make an appointment to play with him a few more times when I have time. Little Vinegar Jar Wei flipped over! Wei Xiao got out of bed barefooted and went to the kitchen to find Lu Feng. Wei Xiao found it quite unexpected that Lu Feng could cook, but of course, he was already over his surprise. Now, he wanted to launch a punitive expedition! Lu Feng heard the sound of movement and looked back at him. What Before he could finish speaking, he noticed his bare legs and shoeless feet. Lu Feng dried his hands and walked up to him. The floor is cold, put your shoes on. Wei Xiao held up his cell phone and showed it to him. Lu Feng: ? Wei Xiao was really sour. Yuan Zes really concerned about you. Hes afraid you cant find the feeling and even wants to play with you a few more times. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao didnt need to eat lunch anymore because he was already full of vinegar. Look at this photo, he made you look so handsome in it! Say, do you think hes Lu Feng picked him up. Wei Xiao: Ah Lu Feng first gave him a kiss. Wei Xiao instantly felt sweet inside, but his mouth continued to complain, Kissing isnt going to work; Im angry. Lu Feng set him down on the sofa so that he could step on the soft carpet. What are you angry about? Wei Xiao bit at his Adams apple. Im angry that youre attracting bees and butterflies! Lu Feng looked at him and smiled. Wei Xiao sucked in a breath and accused, You see? Look at your smile, youre seducing people again! Lu Feng couldnt help himself and kissed him again. Alright. Wei Xiao really wished he could hide him away. Lu Feng laughed and coaxed him, Ill only smile for you in the future. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Fengs voice was 1000% deadly when he used to speak words of love. I only like you. Wei Xiaos heart was pounding, bang, bang, bang. Lu Feng lowered his voice further, I only love you. It was just a few quiet sentences, but it made Wei Xiao wrap his hands around his neck, his whole body burning hot. Well eat later. Lu Feng held his waist. Wei Xiao pulled him down to the sofa. Right here The little beast was shameless, impetuous, and unrestrained. If Lu Feng still didnt take him back to the base, then Brother Cais worries would come true. After returning to the base, Lu Feng started to get busy. This was normal; he wasnt only Close, but also the head of FTW. After such a long time away, even if hed worked remotely, there were many things that still needed to be gone over anew. It was also because he would be very busy after his official return that Lu Feng had taken Wei Xiao and hidden away outside secretly for a few days. The way Wei Xiao had both yearned for and missed him was something that couldnt be explained fully with words. Although Lu Feng didnt use words, the amount that he missed him wasnt any less and might even be even more. They needed these three days to ease the yearning they felt for each other after it had built up for more than two months. After indulging in each other for so many days, Wei Xiao inevitably felt a sense of loss when they abruptly returned back to the base. Brother Cai disdained him. Be a little more promising. Wei Xiao stared at him. You dont understand shit! Brother Cai: He really didnt understand as much as he did now. Wei Xiao was sorrowful. The furthest distance wasnt when he was in North America, but rather when hes in China and right in front of me, but I cant kiss him. Bai Cai: Get lost! Fortunately, the playoffs were coming soon. After Closes return, the team needed to break in the new team formation. Once the training matches began, Wei Xiaos brain was no longer filled with nothing but love. There werent that many games in the playoffs. If FTW had a smooth journey, they might only need to play three games. Their first game was against GOQ. If they won, then they would enter the top four. Then, it was four into two, and if they won that, theyd enter the finals. The last game would be the domestic finals where they fought for the championship! If they won the domestic championship, then they would qualify to fight for the global championship, and that would be like receiving a major stimulant towards taking down the global championships. Also This would be Wei Xiaos first championship. It was very rare for newcomers to win the championship in their first year after joining a team. It was a rare occurrence even across the whole world. Wei Xiao hadnt joined the club as a transfer player. He was entering the professional arena for the first time. So, it was very significant. FTW wouldnt let go of any championship opportunity. Three years later, they still longed for and cherished that golden trophy! The team competition was determined, and the doubles and singles competition were now open for registration. There was no dispute for the singles event; FTW signed up for Close. Their doubles team had also been determined a long time ago, Close & Quiet. As soon as the list came out, as expected, the fans were over the moon. The singles competition, doubles competition, team competition. FTW was very ambitious! Two championship crowns are guaranteed! Be a little more confident, winning three championships wont be hard, okay. Well, the doubles competition relies heavily on cooperation. Close and Quiet cant cooperate? Its not that I dont believe in Quiet, but that the great demon king is really hard to catch up to. He is hard to catch up to, but I feel that Quiet can do it! The catch up to that the fans spoke about was referring to keeping up with Closes rhythm. Brother Cai looked at these words, and his lips twitched: Dont worry, he caught him. The only person in the whole world who could catch Close is your Quiet! Finally, the officials released a video from the big brawl opening game. In fact, the game officials had been constantly trying to attract peoples interest from the release of this new game mode. Theyd cut and played many different clips from region to region. For example, the lost proud flower of Shining Gold Temple. For example, the duel of mages in Thousand Needle Forest. For example, Closes heavenly groups crazy operations. Of course, there was no lack of clips showing the great demon kings slaughter mode in Falling Star Lake. But these were just clips. They were there to show off excellent operations, provide snippets, and let people watch the excitement. When theyd gained enough attention, then they would release the whole video so that fans could cut out clips on their own. FTWs side really had to go over the replay. Firstly, there was Close whod signed up for the singles. They had to figure out all the possible plays in the big brawl and definitely couldnt screw up. Secondly, Close and Quiet had signed up for the doubles. They had to take a closer look at these two peoples tactical ideas and make some preparations in advance. Chen Feng presided over the replay review, and the first thing they watched was the fighting in Falling Star Lake. Close had played too well, and the review was very boring. Towards the end, Chen Feng suspected that hed been infected by Little Lunatic Wei as he was getting too good at blowing rainbow farts! For the sake of the reputation of his poisonous tongue, Chen Feng switched to the Moonlight Wetland. This was Wei Xiaos main battlefield. At this moment, nobody thought much of it, and even Brother Cai had forgotten. Until the chat box popped up over Wei Xiaos head, super flirty, Captain Yan, are you tempting me? Wei Xiao: ! Bai Cai: !! Lu Feng: What did it mean when self-inflicted suffering made it difficult to live? Wei Little Xiao was really making sure he wouldnt be able to get out of bed! Chen Feng clicked on fast forward. But who couldve known that theyd get to an even deadlier portion? The holy priest who was covered in holy light had been surrounded; there were raindrops everywhere and the blood warrior was charging down from the sky. Then, Quiet said, Stand back. Little Ning became the last straw to crush Wei Xiao. Brother Xiao is so handsome, hes like the hero who saves the beauty! Wei Xiao: Lu Fengs black eyes were dark and still. Wei Xiao reached out a hand towards his under the table. Ning Zhehan cleared his throat and continued, No, thats not right. Captain Yan isnt a beauty, but Brother Xiao is definitely God Yans hero at this moment! To make it worse, Xiang Liu came in, his face full of surprise. Y1 asked us for a training match! The four little ones: ! Xiang Liu didnt know what had just happened before and said happily, Last years global champions asked us for a training match He was so moved, so moved he wanted to cry. Many pairs of eyes turned to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao laughed dryly. Ning Zhehan: Its all because of Brother Xiao. Captain Yan is thanking you. Wei Xiao was going crazy: Little Ning, your mouth ahhhhh, Laozi doesnt want to sleep on the floor! Chapter 174.1: Lu Feng: You came too late. It felt a bit cold in the training room. There was no other reason for it; Close on his own was enough to freeze an entire summer, let alone a mere training room. Ning Zhehans little mouth blared on for a long time before he finally seemed to realize that the atmosphere wasnt quite right. Little Ning shut up and blinked his eyes. Cough, cough... What was going on? Brother Cai knew the reason for it, but he didnt dare to say anything. Wei Xiao also knew, but it wasnt convenient for him to coax Lu Feng right now because there were too many people present. Chen Feng knew most of all, and he only felt that his brain was hurting and he needed painkillers to continue living. Xiang Liu was a worldly-wise person and immediately realized that something wasnt right. He shut his mouth and stood there cleverly. Nobody spoke, and the cooling system in the room became even more effective. Wei Xiao took responsibility for the things hed done. He steeled himself and opened his mouth, Captain Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiaos heart was dripping blood. We wont play training matches with them! Once these words came out, Ning Zhehans eyes grew wide. Yue Wenle bowed his head and stared at his potato chips, pulling him back at the same time. Little Ning restrained himself, but his heart was turbulent and stormy: It was over, it was over; hed been careless for just a moment and even forgotten about those old rumors. CCYan Jiang and Close didnt get along. As early as when they were in FTW, the two of them had a precedent of not saying a word to each other for half a month. Later on, when the Team of Gods was disbanded, Yan Jiang had been the first to go while Close had been the only one to stay behind. From these details, people could infer how serious the conflict between the two men was. Many old fans liked to compare Yan Jiang with Close. The Yuan Ze from the old Team of Gods was a butterfly who didnt act human; Xie He was a thorny hedgehog who would fight over anything; Kim Sung-hyun was a delicate proud flower when he didnt speak. Only Yan Jiang and Close were both equally silent, with equally powerful auras, and were equally able to dominate a crowd. As the saying went, two tigers couldnt live on the same mountain. Many people felt that these two people were key reasons for why the Team of Gods had split up. Yan Jiang was someone who always meant what he said. The Close whod just joined the team, had been a complete lone wolf. In this transition from the old to new, their ideas conflicted, and it would be more strange if no problems arose. At the time, Yan Jiangs fans and Closes fans tore fiercely into each other. Yan Jiang fans: Our Captain Yan is dedicated to FTW. Without him, todays FTW wouldnt exist. The management is really messed up. Seeing that Close has more economic value, they began to start treating the old players like shit! Close fans: Teams have to make money, too. Yan Jiang never participates in various activities, and he doesnt even cooperate with marketing. Hes just a support player, whats he acting so crazy for? God Yan has the capital to be crazy! Forget it, with a top-laner like Yuan Ze, a mid-laner like Xie He, an ADC like Kim Sung-hyun, and adding on Close, they can get a world championship with any casual support player. Get the hell out. Without Captain Yan, how would they even cooperate? Stop barking, Yan Dog. Hes about to transfer, and well wait and see how your number one support player manages to bring out another Team of Gods. What happened after that was clear to everyone The Team of Gods each went their own way, and all of them made great achievements in the international competitions. Yan Jiang built his own team after breaking away from his Team of Gods teammates and won the world championship in 2020. At the same time, he won the FMVP as a support player, becoming the only support player to do so in the history of Glory. A support player had been able to get to this position, and nobody could question his ability any more. But Close Close, whod stayed behind in FTW He experienced a three-year low. Even if he won three singles championships, even if the name Close was famous worldwide, FTW and the China competition zone were gradually disappearing from peoples eyes. Yan Jiang was gone. The Team of Gods had broken up. Close couldnt prop up the new FTW. This was something that the Team of Gods fans couldnt get over. They hated Yan Jiang and also hated Close. Over the years, many newcomers were unable to understand their feelings from that time. Additionally, for three consecutive world games, Close had only participated in the singles, while Yan Jiang only participated in team events. They never encountered each other. It was hard for these scars to disappear with time, but they could be covered with dust, smoothed out, and become shallower. However, once the wind scattered the dust, the scars still remained. Ning Zhehan was young, and hed started his career late, so he knew little about it. Looking at the atmosphere in the training room, he couldnt help thinking a lot. It was Wei Xiao who broke the silence. He also eased up the tense atmosphere with one sentence. Lu Feng couldnt bring himself to treat him coldly, no matter what. Wei Xiao went on, Are we going to go just because they asked us? We dont have time! Were very busy! Lu Feng raised his eyelids and looked at him. Wei Xiao really wished he could act spoiled and coy with him, but this wasnt the right place for it so he changed his words, L&P and Pro are in line He hadnt yet finished when Lu Feng asked him in return, Why not have a training match with Y1? Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng looked at him, his gaze light, his tone slow and leisurely. Last years champion team, why not play against them? For a moment, Wei Xiao couldnt understand what his captain meant. Based on his expression, he was obviously unhappy, but based on his tone, it seemed oh, he was still unhappy; but based on the content, it was irrefutable. Wei Xiaos heart was bitter. He clearly only had the captain in his heart, but how come he inexplicably felt like a scum man who was stepping on two boats? Um Lu Feng spoke to Xiang Liu, When? Xiang Liu replied cautiously, Tomorrow. Lu Feng: Agree to them. Everyone at the scene: ! Wei Xiao blinked and looked at Lu Feng. Lu Feng said to him, We cant waste the people that Quiet worked so hard and bitterly to make a date with. He bit out the emphasis on date. Wei Xiao: QAQ! Brother Cai, who was beside him: Youre on your own, Reckless Wei! Lu Feng gestured to Chen Feng. Continue the replay. Chen Feng: Continue? He was afraid that their team wouldnt have a jungler king tomorrow! Fortunately, Wei Little Xiao had done a great job in the finals circle. From the moment he saw Close, I Like Close The Most no longer noticed Yan Jiang at all. No matter how carefully he protected him in the Moonlight Wetland, no matter how they had cooperated together in the Central Zone, in the finals circle, Wei Xiao had turned around without acknowledging him further. Except for Close, everyone else was just a string of symbols. In addition, their last light arcs had filled the skies. The corners of Lu Fengs mouth finally loosened up a little. Chen Feng summed up many problems, and even focused on Yan Jiang, calling out Bai Cai several times. Do you see this holy priest? Go back and take a closer angle at the landing angle of his light gate. Brother Cai nodded repeatedly. If this was during normal times, Wei Xiao would definitely continue making fun of Brother Cais crappy support, but he currently didnt dare speak. If he scolded Brother Cai, then he would be praising God Yan, and he really didnt want to sleep on the floor tonight since his butt still hurt! Sleeping on the floor would make it worse! After that, Chen Feng went on to focus on Xie He and Kim Sung-hyun. Seeing Proud Flower Kim in the Shining Gold Temple, even the icy cold FTW training room couldnt resist flowing with a bit of cheerful atmosphere. There was no helping it, the lost flower was too funny! It was also because hed been abused like crazy by the maze that when Kim Sung-hyun arrived in the Central Zone, he played an unprecedented game, to the point where even Yue Wenle dropped his potato chips. It was still early after they finished the game replays. Although there werent any training matches, they could still go and queue as a team of five in the professional servers to practice their line-ups. The efficiency of queueing as a team of five was very high in the professional servers now, and there was always a chance of running into other teams. Because their official names werent shown, there was no need to hide or avoid anything. They could fight as hard as possible and improve their strength. Lu Feng had been away from the team for such a long time. Now that they were going to queue together, he wasnt nervous, but the others were. Especially Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle. These two fellows had somewhat forgotten the horror of having the great demon king control the field. Seeing that the game was about to start, they grew even more nervous. And it turned out that The nervousness they felt was reasonable. Lu Feng took a death knight at the start of the game and killed the other sides top laner in three minutes. From then on, he didnt try to restrain himself at all. The red team was also queued as a team of five. They couldnt guess who they were up again, and they couldnt pick up any clues from the IDs. The top laner didnt think too much of it after being killed and only howled, This top-laner is a bit strong. The red team jungler replied, Stay steady. Ill go up to support later. This later was really too late. The top-laner died, the top-laner died again. The top-laners mentality exploded, What kind of devil is this? Did I run into Marshal?! His own teams jungler was also experiencing a collapse of mentality. It might be L&P. This berserker thief is really crazy. Gary was also famous as a crazy jungler, the type whose fame stretched back all the way to his ancestors. With such a guess, they started playing more seriously, but it was useless. The top lane towers were taken down by Close alone, and the red team was run ragged. The other lanes soon collapsed as well. On FTWs side, Wei Xiao coaxed his boyfriend, Captain, give me a chance, I want to support the top lane. Lu Feng: Come. Wei Xiao rushed up as soon as he heard this. He even arranged for Brother Cai to go to the bottom lane and help Little Lele. And then System announcement: Lu killed XXX. Lu killed XXXX. Lu double kill. Wei Xiao, whod hurried over the whole way but hadnt even managed to get an assist: Lu Feng: You came too late. What could Wei Xiao do? Wei Xiao also didnt dare to do anything! The murderous Close led the whole team to victory on his own. Who said that top-laners couldnt lead the rhythm? Taking down all the towers in one lane was the most immortal level rhythm. Chapter 174.2: Wei Xiao: Well then, how will President Lu punish me? Compared with the tension Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle felt, Chen Feng, a bystander watching the game, was even more nervous. Brother Tang had finally taken up his coaching position. He looked at Lu Fengs top lane and was left breathless. Hes really strong. Chen Feng: Mm. There was no doubting Closes personal strength. The two-month breath may have left him with a bit of unfamiliarity with the game, but this unfamiliarity was really something that could only be felt at the level of the Team of Gods. For this kind of ordinary game, as long as the game system and professional talents didnt undergo any major adjustments, his strength would not be shaken at all. Strong was strong. Even if it was weakened by 20%, it would be unattainable for regular players. What Chen Feng was more concerned about was coordination. Putting Close on the top lane might have been the most correct choice for FTW this year. At one time, everyone had thought that Close was the best fit for the jungler position. He was a natural jungler king, especially with the shadow thief, which had basically been plastered with Closes label and had held him up high on the jungler pedestal, pushing him to become more and more like a god. However, it was an indisputable fact that the FTW team hadnt been doing well. What fans could see was the dazzling, brilliant Close, the shadow thief whose plays went all the way up to heaven but couldnt win, and the grievance of Close being dragged down by his teammates. Was that really the case? Had Close really not done anything wrong? In fact, there was some truth in the haters words. Lack of coordination was a very serious problem. Even if he was number one in the world, he couldnt fight one against nine. The team competition was about the team, not about Close himself. Unfortunately, no one dared to mention it, and even Chen Feng didnt dare to say anything. Firstly, Close really hadnt done anything wrong; secondly, Close was FTWs soul, and losing him would be an even more unimaginable scenario. Fortunately, Close was more sober and aware than anyone else. Hed never thought that the teams poor performance was unrelated to him, and hed never thought that personal strength was something that should be shown off, and hed never thought of blaming his teammates. He knew exactly where the roots of the problem were. CCYoure not suited to being a team competition player. Lu Feng remembered the words that Yan Jiang had spoken to him three years ago very clearly. Captain? This clear voice brought Lu Feng back from his thoughts. Lu Feng turned his head and saw a pair of clean eyes that were full of warmth. The corners of his mouth were still taut, but his voice was much lighter. Mm. Wei Xiao: Again? Lu Feng: Continue. He wasnt suited for team games, not suited for the jungler position, and not suited for getting along with people. But hed met Wei Xiao. The unique and irreplaceable Wei Xiao. The night of training finally ended. Close used his strength to show everyone what it meant to be filled with murderous intent. At first, Wei Xiao still wanted to coax him. Later Freedom! Happiness! Comfort! There were clearly three roads in the canyon, but he didnt need to worry about the top lane at all. He only needed to focus on the lower two lanes. This sense of security akin to the comfort of leaning back against a big tree, this kind of feeling where he could trust his back to someone else completely was too satisfying. Wei Xiao loved this feeling to death. At eleven oclock in the evening, Chen Feng stopped their queueing and gave instructions for their schedule for tomorrow before letting them do their own thing. Xiang Liu came to look for Lu Feng. It seemed that there was something he had to deal with. Wei Xiao had originally wanted to go out, but he stopped and stayed in the training room. Ah It was lonely inside the empty boudoir. He might as well abuse some cubs. Who should he abuse? Little Nings back tensed up. Wei Xiao: Solo? Ning Zhehan: Brother Xiao. Although he didnt know how hed offended him, Little Nings self-preservation radar was filling his mind with danger ahead signs. Wei Xiao smiled superficially. Ning Zhehan gritted his teeth and said, Can we not use the shadow thief? Wei Xiao: Okay. And then Ning Zhehan was abused by the immortal warlock. Why QwQ. Why was it the immortal warlock QwQ. It wouldve been better to be smeared into the ground by the shadow thief instead QwQ. Although Glory had launched the big brawl mode, it hadnt removed the previous solo mode. It was just that it was now a lot simpler. There was no need to push the towers any more, and players would already be in full gear when they entered the arena. They could fight as soon as they met. There was no need to farm, no farm calculations, just plays and amazing operations. In reality, this game mode was a bit monotonous, but it was also more straightforward. Before, each game still took around 20 minutes. Now In 20 minutes, Wei Xiao screwed Ning Zhehan 10 times. Oh, he screwed him to death 10 times. Um it seemed that something still wasnt right. After getting revenge, Wei Xiao couldnt make himself stay in the training room any more. He sent a message to Lu Feng, Captain~ Lu Feng: Come up. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up. Back to the room? Im going up now! Lu Feng: Office. Wei Xiao felt a sense of loss, but he blinked again quickly. Youre alone? Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao didnt reply to him and directly snuck away to go upstairs. The training room was on the second floor, and the office area was on the fourth floor. When Wei Xiao went past the third floor, he ran into Bai Cai. Brother Cai, whod just pushed open his door: .. Wei Xiao quickly entrusted him with a task. Brother Soy will sleep with you tonight. Bai Cais lips twitched. You Wei Xiao shot him a look. Youre a good brother~! Brother Cai almost threw up. Get lost! Damn it, he was really inhuman. Theyd just spent three days and three nights stuck together, but he still had to go and pester the captain now? How should he say it? Was it that Little Beast Wei was naturally talented or that the great demon king hadnt fed him well enough? Brother Cai thought about the captains physique that wasnt short on breath even after running five kilometers Okay then, Little Lunatic Wei wasnt human! Wei Xiao was slightly delayed, but when he arrived at the office, he found that Lu Feng had left the door open for him. He peeked in, then slipped in and found that Lu Feng was on the phone. It was already midnight. Who would call the captain so late? Wei Xiao kept his movements light, afraid of disturbing Lu Feng. The lighting in the office was very bright. Lu Feng stood by the window, and it was dark outside. He held a cell phone in one hand, and his jaw was a little tense, making his angular face even more prominent, outlined by the night. He stood with his back to the light, and half of his face was in the dark. His eyelashes were coated with light, draping shadows beneath his eyes. Wei Xiao stopped his steps and didnt dare to go over. For some reason, the current Lu Feng made him feel a bit like they were strangers. Lu Fengs voice was very cold. It wasnt the usual coldness where he restrained his emotions, but a coldness used to suppress something. It was so cold that it made him feel heartache. Four seasons. I know. No. Mm. Wei Xiao didnt know who he was calling, and he didnt know what they were talking about. He just knew that Lu Feng was in a bad mood. It wasnt the same kind of bad mood as the training room. He was really in a terrible mood. Lu Feng hung up the phone and noticed Wei Xiao standing by the door in a daze. Wei Xiao came back to his senses and came over, asking, Whats the matter? Lu Fengs thoughts were scattered for a moment, but he soon put away the cold feeling, holding him by the wrist. Its nothing. He pulled Wei Xiao to his side and kissed him on the lips. Wei Xiao followed suit and relaxed somewhat, but his heart was still on other things. You have to tell me if somethings up. Lu Feng smiled, Mm. Wei Xiao: Happy things, unhappy things, you have to tell me all of it. Lu Feng paused briefly, then agreed, Okay. Wei Xiaos eyes curved, In that case, let me ask, why is Mr. Lu angry? Lu Feng pinched his pale fingers. Dont you know? They werent in the training room any more, and Wei Xiao didnt back down. Me and Captain Yan are clean and pure. Where did you eat that flying vinegar from? Lu Feng: It is quite clean and pure. You only acted like a knight for him in the Moonlight Wetland, and then you were so intimate there was no space between you two in the Central Zone. Wei Xiao: As the saying went, it was better to do than to say, and it was better to do things more than once than to just do it once. Wei Xiao leaned back against the desk, pulling Lu Feng over by his shirt. He licked his lower lip, Well then, how will President Lu punish me? This cry of President Lu made Lu Fengs eyes darken. Wei Xiao felt inspired. He purposely leaned into his ear and asked, Is there a camera in the room? Lu Feng: No. Wei Xiaos voice grew even lighter, and his hint couldnt be any more obvious. I locked the door. Lu Feng held him by the waist and set him down on the desk. Wei Xiao really wasnt afraid of death. He wrapped his legs around him and leaned up to kiss him. Lu Feng held the back of his head and kissed him until he moaned. His body was pasted on the cold desk, documents were swept to the ground, and even the all-in-one printing machine shook a good many times. There were no cameras in Lu Fengs private office, the door was locked, and the automatic curtains slowly closed, blocking out the moonlight and the stars. The only drawback was that the soundproofing here was very average. Wei Xiao tried to bear it and moaned quietly. At first, Lu Feng was afraid of hurting him and wanted to take him to the sofa, but Wei Xiao narrowed his eyes at him. President Lu Lu Feng lifted his gaze and looked at him. Wei Xiao bit his lower lip and said shamelessly, I want to dirty your desk. Lu Feng blocked his mouth so that he couldnt say another complete sentence. Later on What later on could there be. They had a great time in the office. xiin: office sex, check. Chapter 175.1: 18 was an age for soaring into the skies. As Wei Xiao wished, the desk ended up a mess. Of course, he himself wasnt much better. Fortunately, Lu Fengs suite was also upstairs. The two of them avoided everyone as they went over there. After cleaning up, Wei Xiao was very satisfied, and his mouth started to act up again, Captain Lu Feng was helping him wipe his hair. Mm? Wei Xiao bowed his head, his gaze landing perfectly on his strong abdomen. His throat went dry. Youre so powerful. Lu Fengs movements paused. Behave. Wei Xiao poked him. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao plastered his palm over him. Lu Feng took down the towel and lowered his eyes to look at him. Wei Xiao blinked at him and smiled evilly. What, didnt you get enough just now? Lu Feng breathed in lightly and didnt reply. Wei Xiao held it. Youre really so hard Lu Fengs voice was a little unsteady. Dont mess around. Wei Xiao: Can you sleep like this? Lu Feng: Theres a training match tomorrow. Wei Xiao sat down on his body, his tone sultry, Then be a little gentler. Lu Feng dropped his head and bit down on his thin shoulder. Wei Xiao didnt feel any pain at all, but his heart itched badly. Doing it in the office was exciting, but Lu Feng had a lot of scruples. For one, the desk was too hard, and secondly, the sound insulation was too poor. Lu Feng was worried that Wei Xiao would suffer and didnt want anyone to hear his voice, so he restrained himself and coaxed him to go upstairs after Wei Xiao had finished. Now, they were on a bed, on their own floor, and the sound insulation was very good here. Lu Feng had already been holding back for a while. How could he stand Wei Xiaos provocation After that, Wei Xiao cried so hard that his pillow was drenched. His voice was hoarse, and he buried his face against Lu Fengs shoulder. His mouth spoke messy words, Do you just like hearing me moan. Lu Feng patted him lightly. Shut up. Wei Xiao: You dont shoot when I shut up. Lu Feng stopped walking to the bathroom. At the end of the day, Wei Xiao was still a little scared. He quickly begged for mercy, No, no, I really cant this time! If they went on, not only would there be no training match tomorrow, he wouldnt even be able to get out of bed. Lu Feng had always had self restraint. Although hed repeatedly broken his own rules time and again when it came to Wei Xiao, he still had some sense of propriety. He prepared well beforehand and also cleaned up properly afterwards. Wei Xiao only knew to go crazy, but he didnt realize that the only reason he dared to do so was entirely due to the fact that Lu Feng ensured he had nothing to worry about. The satisfied Wei Xiao fell asleep in bed. Lu Feng applied medicine for him, and this brat continued moaning in his sleep, calling out captain in a spoiled tone like a little kitten, making Lu Feng heat up again. There was one thing that Wei Xiao had said right. Lu Feng liked listening to his voice. But then, was there anything about him that Lu Feng didnt like? Lu Feng cuddled him and waited until he was completely asleep before getting up and going to the balcony. It had rained that evening, and the originally hot and dry weather had cooled down. At this time, the rain had stopped, and the damp outside was infused with the scent of greenery and flowers, leaving behind a little bit of an earthy aftertaste in the air. It didnt smell bad and could even be called refreshing. It was able to slowly calm a persons heart. The FTW base was located in the outskirts of the city. It was very quiet, and although the rain had stopped, dark clouds still blocked the stars and the moon. The night sky was dark, like the sea in winter. Lu Feng leaned forward, his palms on the railings. His eyes were deeper than the night as he stared into the empty distance. This is the fourth season, right. Lu Feng, our agreement is about to expire. Why cling to these things? Its your fathers birthday next month. Will you come back? Forget it, then. That womans cold voice echoed in Lu Fengs mind. Lu Feng, whod listened to every word, only felt a sense of detachment. These were his relatives, the people whod watched him grow up from childhood, but he only felt a sense of detachment and indifference towards them. Lu Fengs hand suddenly used force, grasping the cold railing tight. The light from the room landed on the back of his cold, pale hand. His knuckles bulged, and the veins on his hand stood out like bruises. Dull pain came from his left shoulder. The blue-purple scars had been gone for a long time, and the internal injuries had also gradually recovered through physiotherapy. It would no longer affect him, but the stinging pain was like worms wriggling inside his bones and couldnt be eradicated. A foggy, rainy night, an empty balcony. 18 was an age for soaring into the skies. But his wings had been broken by his father. After waking up, Wei Xiao was refreshed and filled with energy. When it came to pain, it really turned out that it would start feeling good as time went on. Wei Xiao was getting more and more used to it. The original hot, burning pain had been replaced by a slight swelling pain alone. Tsk Wei Xiao sent Lu Feng a message, Im really gifted. Lu Feng, who was working: Another message flew in, I can actually take your big guy. Lu Feng flipped the phone over so that it faced the desk. After harassing the captain, Wei Xiao hummed a song and went to wash up. When he was about to go upstairs, his boyfriend replied to him, Wait until the off-season. At first, Wei Xiao didnt know what he was talking about. He then linked it up with the context, and his eyes curved. Oh, duckie~ He even sent an expression pack of a wrestling duck. Lu Feng didnt reply. Wei Xiao was really asking for it. Then Ill be waiting for a boyfriend who goes all out. This sentence held a double entendre. Those who understood it would naturally understand it. Lu Feng: Brat. Wei Xiao was fearless. It was as though the one whod been crying for mercy last night wasnt him. This conversation couldnt be continued. Lu Feng diverted the topic, Going downstairs? The dining area was on the first floor. Wei Xiao leaned against the side of the stairs. Im about to go eat. Lu Feng: Wait for me. Wei Xiao: Okay! Unfortunately, having a sweet meal for two was impossible. Firstly, there was Brother Cai, who yawned as he went downstairs. Wei Xiao was just about to drive him away when Little Ning and Old Yue came over, shoulder to shoulder. Little Ning, who knew nothing: Brother Xiao, has your stomach not recovered yet? Wei Xiao: Bai Cai helped him answer, Hes eating lighter foods to nourish his stomach. Wei Xiao cleared his throat and agreed, Mm. His stomach was very good, but eating light was conducive for his long-term development. Fortunately, Wei Xiaos tastes had never been that heavy, and it could almost be said that he didnt have much interest in food and could eat anything. By the time Lu Feng came downstairs, Little Ning was eating quietly. At first, Wei Xiao tried his best to stay steady and not flirt with the captain, but later To hell with staying steady. Hed fed the captain celery during the winter training camp, so why couldnt he feed him watermelon now?! As a person, he had to be frank and magnanimous, and leave any feelings of guilt far behind! Due to the time difference, the training match between FTW and Y1 would be held in the evening. The time difference between the two sides was about six or seven hours. On FTWs side, it was eight oclock in the evening, and it was early afternoon for Y1. This timing was quite suitable. FTW and 3U had played all afternoon. Their win rate was about 70-30. FTW naturally accounted for the 70%. Chen Fengs tight nerves finally loosened somewhat. After Close returned, the team would definitely need some time to get used to each other again. Fortunately, Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were able to adapt to Lu Feng, and there was even less need to mention Wei Xiao, who understood Close better than anyone else. Only Ning Zhehan was a bit awkward, but it wasnt a fatal problem and wouldnt cause problems for training matches and domestic games. As for the globals They could take their time. They had enough time! FTW had enough of a base now, and their line-up today was the strongest in China. If they played enough to build up more cooperation and tacit understanding, they might really be able to win the world championships. Chen Fengs heart surged every time he thought about it. Three years. Three world games! The China competition zone, FTW, Close They needed a real championship! It was soon eight oclock after they had dinner. The two sides had already gotten in touch. FTW logged into the international server and opened up a locked room. They could also open a room in the professional server, but there were too many people watching that server, so it was better to hide in the international servers. However, some fans still discovered it. Post after post piled up under the FTW keyword. Report! FTWs five starters opened up a locked room! Thats normal, the playoffs are going to start soon. They must be having training matches every day. Its in the international servers! Holy shit which team is it? Is it L&P or Pro? Due to the winter training camp, these two teams now had close relationships with FTW. Unfortunately, they couldnt see the other team in the locked room. No matter how much the fans guessed, they couldnt figure out who FTW was having a training match with. It didnt take long before the logic emperors came out to speak on the topic. Its about to be 8AM in North America. L&P wouldnt make a training appointment at this time even if they went crazy. Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran are currently playing doubles in the big brawl. Its definitely not them. They were even streaming it. Its not L&P, and its not Pro, then Report! Team Y1s five starters are all online! The fans were all going crazy, It cant be, it cant be, it absolutely cant be Y1. Y1 against FTW? Wake up, Feng-Yan sisters, your house has collapsed a long time ago and wont be built up again in this lifetime! I dont believe it. It cant be Y1. If its Y1, then I I Im going to f*cking faint from anger! They would really be very angry. Y1 vs FTW was one of the dream games for old Glory fans. Yet as a result, the two teams had snuck off for a training match, and the fans couldnt even watch it. It was more than being dizzy with anger; they were about to spiral up and explode on the spot, okay?! Some people were calm. It might really be Y1. Dont just stare at Yan Jiang and Close. Think about our sweet Swallowtail CP from the opening game. Holy shit, its not impossible! If there werent any grudges or grievances between Yan Jiang and Wei Xiao from the opening game, the fans probably wouldnt believe that Y1 would play in a training match with FTW in this lifetime. But Wei Xiao had that ability to tease others like it didnt cost money, and there was the way hed used and abused him. There was also that way hed acted like he was no longer interested in God Yan as soon as he saw Close, and that prisoner control in the finals circle. Some fans were already starting to smash their keyboards. So angry! So hateful! It was the decisive battle of the century, but they couldnt watch it! Chapter 175.2: After all, this little lunatic wasnt like ordinary people. No matter how the fans guessed at the truth, the training match that had been scheduled was still in progress. The players from both teams all arrived and soon entered the BP stage. Chen Feng was ready and waiting, writing and scribbling on his iPad. His posture was akin to his readiness for a formal competition. Oh Something was missing compared to an official competition. For better or worse, there was no soul-sucking poster. Although FTW had never played against Y1, Y1 was a powerful global team, and Chen Feng had done a lot of homework on them. He hadnt only studied Y1 because they wanted to target the global games, but also because they could draw experience for themselves from watching strong teams fight. Y1 was also known as the routine kaleidoscope. The domestic routine emperor, TPT, was like a junior school student when compared with Y1. It wasnt that Fu Lis brain wasnt as good as Yan Jiangs, but that his hardware was a little worse. At the end of the day, a mid-laner didnt have the same overall grasp of the situation as a support player. In fact, the BP link was very relaxed when playing against Y1. This was because there was nothing to target. No matter what line-up they took, Yan Jiang could easily make up for his teams shortfalls in the match. This was an extremely overbearing ability. Instead, FTW needed to pay more attention on how to obtain a comfortable line-up for themselves. Unfortunately, Y1 was very clever. Those who were familiar with routines could see their intentions during the BP link even if they didnt understand FTW as a team. After a surge of dark undercurrents, the c-positions for both sides were settled. Chen Feng hesitated over his own jungler position. Wei Xiao was fearless. Take the shadow thief! He was starting to get the hang of the nine light arcs and wanted to practice it. Chen Feng glanced at Lu Feng. Lu Feng: Yes. Chen Feng couldnt resist. To take the shadow thief in front of Yan Jiang Wei Xiao understood. Have Old Bai take the cleanse priest? Chen Fengs concerns were reasonable. Wei Xiaos shadow thief was very strong, but if the shadow thief wanted to brush enough light arcs, it needed to be able to play out a series of moves. Once he was controlled during a combo, then hed be done for. When facing other players, Wei Xiaos positioning was like a fish swimming in water. He could easily avoid their control skills. When facing Yan Jiang, a man who understood the shadow thief down to his bones, how would Wei Xiao be able to avoid it? Let alone nine light arcs; Chen Feng was afraid that Wei Xiao would end up with psychological trauma and not dare to use the shadow thief ever again. Wei Xiao had also seen Yan Jiangs control before so he was very clear about what he might encounter during the match. As a support hero, the cleanse priest was still considered quite mainstream. Many teams would use it during the season. If there were strong control skills, then there would also be cleansing skills. Wei Xiao couldnt take any additional cleansing skills because he was playing jungler and could only rely on his support player for assistance. There were two ways for the cleanse priest to clear controls. One was its ultimate move, which would cleanse all teammates within range, and the other was played out through a series of moves and could store a cleanse that could be applied to avoid control. The cleanse priest was a support hero that relied on operations. Of course, this micro level wasnt much for professional players and Brother Cai could use it. Chen Feng shook his head. Unless its a last resort, dont use things like the cleanse priest with Yan Jiang. The cleanse priest had clear advantagesCCit could be used against teams with strong control, but it also had a terrible disadvantageCCit had zero control skills and no healing. A support position in Glory had several important key attributes. One was control, and the other was healing. The rest such as shields, defense, and buff stacks could also enhance their teammates abilities. With the cleanse priest, other than its ability to remove controls, its only other advantage was its high survivability. This attribute was more suited for casual players. Players would happily use the cleanse priest because it didnt die easily and didnt need to rely on its teammates too much. But when it was used in a team game, one bad operation could cause the team to break apart. Without any control skills, it couldnt start a group fight. Without healing, it couldnt help extend teammates lives. If it was just used for cleansing, then it was also very difficult for it to target Yan Jiang. Other support control rates were at 30% so the cleanse priest could lead his teammates to kill and succeed after dealing with a key control. But Yan Jiangs precision level was at 70%, which made the cleanse priests single team cleanse skill appear insufficient. Close knew Yan Jiang very well, which was why he said that they shouldnt take the cleanse priest unless absolutely necessary. It was very likely that they would only solve minor problems without dealing with the major ones. But Wei Xiao was still eager to go. I want to give it a try. They would encounter them sooner or later. If he fell sooner, then he could climb back up again sooner. Chen Feng thought about it and gritted his teeth. Fine. He believed in Little Lunatic Wei. After all, this little lunatic wasnt like ordinary people. Their line-ups were determined. FTW: Space warrior, shadow thief, spirit mage, holy priest, frost hunter. Y1: Death knight, power thief, earth mage, elemental shaman, gold hunter. Yan Jiang took the elemental shaman, and Chen Fengs brows jumped up. Y1 had a habit, a habit that everyone knew, but could do nothing aboutCC Their support would always be the last to pick a hero, and they were never anxious. Everyone knew about this habit, but they werent able to do anything about it. Just like FTW in the China competition zone; if the last position to pick a hero was their jungler position, then they could disregard all else arbitrarily and let Close take whatever he liked. It was the same for Y1, and what made it even more terrifying was that they could be equally arbitrary and willful in the global games. It couldnt really be considered willful. After all, Yan Jiangs support was the core of the team. However, this core could change a lot. There were two players in Glory who had taken the elemental shaman and made great use of it. One was Pros Li Heran. In the doubles, the elemental shaman could essentially give Kim Sung-hyun ten lives, letting him beat up the other side until they were left dizzy. The other was Yan Jiang, whod maintained a 100% win rate with it in team competitions. Wei Xiao breathed lightly. Lets go. Everyone grew serious. Okay! Although it was a training match, since theyd been given this chance to fight against the strongest team in the world, they had to do their best! The start of the game was unexpectedly smooth. The three lanes went up against each other and provided vision where they should. Their development was relatively stable. Lu Feng had taken the space warrior in this game. Most top-laners would call this hero the gun warrior, because his weapon was a spear gun that had a relatively long range of attack, and its ultimate move was also quite unique. The space warriors ultimate move was to break through air, tear open space, and move a friendly unit in a certain direction. The range for this skill covered nearly half the canyon, making it very strong when used well. FTW had been practicing with this routine lately, and they were quite proficient with it, but it was still unknown how they were going to play it today. Although it was just a training match held at home, Chen Feng still followed the rules of the competition and sat on the other side so that he wouldnt interfere with their game. From the overall perspective, Chen Feng could see more of the game, but reminding them of things at this time was meaningless. If they cheated and won this game, then what? It wasnt as though they were afraid of losing in a training match. As Chen Feng had expected, it was impossible to compare the vision that Brother Cai provided with Yan Jiangs. One of the vision traps placed in the small dragon cave disappeared. Brother Cai gave an alert, Old Wei, be careful in the bottom jungle zone. Wei Xiao was staring at it fixedly. He also told Ning Zhehan, Pay attention to the bushes to the right. Ning Zhehan was very nervous, and his eyes didnt even blink as he watched closely. During a break in their communication, Wei Xiao inexplicably felt a tingling numbness in his scalp. After that, a dark, black totem landed at his feet. Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. He used sudden strike and displacement, giving up the stone monster to step away from the totems range, but it was as though the skill had grown a pair of eyes and could clearly see through his intentions; the flying totem split into two and attached itself to the shadow thiefs ankle. Black fog billowed up, and the toxin entered his body along his ankle. Wei Xiao entered a frozen state. Ning Zhehan tried to rush over, but Y1s mid-laner tossed down an earth splitter at the spirit mage, and Little Nings original forward rolling action was forced into becoming a backwards rolling action. This one step back turned his attempt to support Wei Xiao into nothing but a dream. Bai Cais expression was shocked. When did he get there! The elemental shaman had clearly just been at the bottom lane. How had he crossed the dragon cave and gotten to the red jungle zone in the blink of an eye? But now wasnt the time to think about this. If he still didnt go and provide support, then Wei Xiao would be dead for nothing. Indeed There was no way that Wei Xiao could survive. Being locked in place by the elemental shaman was enough time for the power thief to sweep in and send him on his way. Lu Fengs low voice sounded out in their headsets, Bai Cai and Yue Wenle, put pressure on your lane. Wei Xiao, enter stealth mode. Wei Xiao was stunned. In the next second, a huge silver gate opened up behind him. The shadow thief who was controlled by the elemental shaman couldnt move at all, but he didnt need to move. A white palm stretched out from behind the silver gate, light flashed, and the palm sucked backwards, pulling the shadow thief in with it. Space breaking gate! Close used this skill at the maximum range and teleported the seriously injured shadow thief over to himself. Chapter 176.1: Three years later, these two faced off for the first time. This space breaking gate had been placed perfectly. The distance between Lu Feng and Wei Xiao just now could be said to be at the maximum range for the skill. One was on the top lane, while and the other was in the bottom jungle zone, and the distance between them spanned nearly the entire map. Under normal circumstances, the top-laner couldnt provide support for a fight in the lower jungle zone, but the space warrior could. He could break open space and save someone at the tipping point between life and death. Tang Chen, who was to the side, lowered his voice and said, This operation really pushes the limits. As another top-laner, he could see more details. Without mentioning how Close had managed to reach level six in such a short time, just releasing this wave of skills was very astounding. The space breaking gate had a very wide range, but it also had very powerful limitations. How to release this skill within an effective distance, how to release it at the right moment, how to grasp Wei Xiao accurately All of these things required operational skills. Not to mention ordinary players, even Tang Chen, whod been playing as a top-laner for so many years, had no confidence that hed be able to pull it off. The failure rate was too high, and there was a 90% chance that the ultimate move might be wasted and drag back nothing but a corpse. Indeed. The space breaking gate couldnt be cancelled, even if what it dragged back was a teammates corpse. Wei Xiaos health had dropped too quickly. As long as Lu Feng had miscalculated even slightly, then it would have all been in vain. Sometimes, a 5v5 team fight was like a series of dominoes. If one of the dominoes in front fell down, then everything else would collapse, and it would be difficult to save anything. Therefore, most players sought stability; if they could maintain the rhythm, then they wouldnt try to strive for greater benefits. Close clearly hadnt done so. He wouldnt give up any chance and was also confident enough to show off such extreme operations. The space breaking gate saved the shadow thief. Closes previous words werent in vain. There was a reason why hed had Wei Xiao enter stealth mode. The reason? In order not to waste time, Close had opened the space breaking gate from the big dragon cave so Wei Xiao was faced with an ancient creature as soon as he landed. If Wei Xiao wasnt in stealth mode, then he wouldnt have been released from combat mode. If he was still in combat mode, then he would have aggro-ed the ancient creature. Based on the tiny sliver of health he had left, hed be done for as soon as the ancient creature scratched him with a paw! Then hed really be dead. Chen Feng, who was settled on a sofa in the corner, bit his thumb. Impulsive! Tang Chen laughed easily. Its not considered impulsive if he succeeds. In Chen Fengs eyes, this wave of operations was simply crazy. Closes operations had really reached the limit, but the key to whether he could save Wei Xiao or not depended on Wei Xiaos cooperation. If Wei Xiaos reaction wasnt fast enough or if his hand speed was insufficient, he wouldnt have been able to open up stealth the moment he came out of the space breaking gate. In that case, all of his previous efforts would be wasted. Fortunately, the two of them were able to do it, executing the maneuver precisely. If this scene took place in a proper game, in the high-profile competitive arena, it would likely make the audience go crazy and be included in the global wonderful cuts collection. The fans in the China competition zone would also be able to praise it for a whole year! Close and Quiet were shoulder to shoulder as they left the dragon cave together. Chen Feng could see a wider perspective, and his pupils contracted fiercely. Not good! Who was Yan Jiang? What kind of team was Y1? They were last years FMVP, last years global champion team. Would they let them go so easily? Almost instantly, while Wei Xiao remained in stealth looking for a safe place to return back to the base, two beams of light fell to the ground. The elemental shaman and the power thief arrived at Y1s top-laners side at the same time. What made the situation more deadly was that Y1s top-laner was very close to Close. It was obvious that hed received instructions to lock in on the space breaking gates position. Tang Chen took a breath. Old Yan may be old, but hes still vigorous. As an old teammate, Tang Chen couldnt say that he was unfamiliar with Yan Jiang. This former captain of his was very powerful. The feeling of being his teammate versus the feeling of being his opponent was very different. Precise control, a prediction ability that could anticipate what others would do, and a certain strong understanding of all the talents, professions, and skills. Hed obviously guessed Closes position when he saw the space breaking gate appear behind Wei Xiao. The space breaking gates range was 80 yards, with Wei Xiao as the end point. Considering the fact that Close was in the top lane and that the skill operated within a circular radius, if he wanted to open the space breaking gate within the shortest amount of time, over the most extreme distance, then there was only one possible point they could be at. Yan Jiang opened up the minimap and accurately pinpointed the big dragon cave. Y1s top-laner was very attentive and had already sped over, and when he was in place, Yan Jiang and their jungler teleported over at the same time. Once their teleport skill finished casting, they landed only half a second later than Wei Xiao. The situation changed dramatically! Close saved Wei Xiao, but the two of them were now under attack. The situation was now very dangerous. In the mid-lane, Ning Zhehan was being completely blocked from leaving. In the bottom lane, Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were up against Y1s ADC but couldnt gain much of an advantage. Outside the top lanes dragon pit, Close and Quiet were faced with Y1s top-laner, jungler, and support. It was an absolute hell mode situation. Lu Feng: Stand back. He said this to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao inexplicably thought of how hed saved Yan Jiang that time in the opening game. It had also been one against three, but the situation wasnt the same. He had equipment and skills in the big brawl, but this was now a 5v5 game, and it was impossible to fight 1v3. However, although he was thinking that, Wei Xiao was actually very calm. He was in critical health and would just be sending himself to his death if he went up now. It would be better if he took advantage of the fact that his stealth state hadnt been broken yet and quickly slipped away. The captain had worked so hard to save his life. He couldnt just give it to the other side for nothing. Wei Xiao retreated. Chen Feng let out a breath of relief. Thats good. Close might not be able to leave, but from an overall perspective, keeping Quiet alive was still the best option. The shadow thief urgently needed to develop. It was a talent that relied a lot on its farm, and once it died in the early stages, it would lose its jungle clearing rhythm. Once its level and equipment were unable to keep up, the power of its light arcs would be reduced greatly, and it wouldnt be able to deal out any damage at all. It was different for the space warrior. This was a talent that tended towards functionality. Even if it didnt have as much farm, Closes micro operations could still produce amazing results. This round of exchanges was already pretty good. It had already been the best choice they could make. However, Close never thought of dying so simply. At the moment when Wei Xiao retreated in stealth mode, his spear gun landed on the ground, inserting itself in front of the elemental shaman. There was a bang as special effects exploded, just like a loud provocation. FTW.Close. Y1.Yan Three years later, these two faced off for the first time. A top-laner and a support. Could they fight? They could. What they played with werent skills but psychological games. Lu Feng forced the elemental shaman to retreat, and Yan Jiang changed the direction of his spell cast. The totem that hed been planning to toss at Wei Xiao was now inserted at Lu Fengs feet. The space warrior was guided by its gun and would attack where the gun landed. There would be no mistakes. But when it came to things that even ordinary support players could do, Yan Jiang naturally wouldnt make any mistakes, either. The daze totem landed on Lu Feng, forcing his body to go out of control for a short time. At the same time, the power thief and the death knights damage swept over, causing the space warriors health to drop sharply. Under normal circumstances, few players would surround and fight a space warrior because his ultimate move could easily allow him to escape super far away, at a distance their enemies couldnt catch. But Close had used his life-saving skill on Wei Xiao. At this time, he only had a very short movement skill that could be used with his spear gun. It would be very difficult for him to escape from this group fight. Chen Feng suddenly felt a bit reluctant to watch on. How many times had the elemental shaman accompanied Close to get triple kills, quadrakills, and even pentakills in the past? But now, todays elemental shamans totems had turned black and were filled with the heavy aura of death as they landed on Closes body. He didnt know why, but Chen Fengs heart felt extra chaotic when he thought of Close dying at Yan Jiangs hands. Yuan Ze, Xie He, and Kim Sung-hyun may have refused to take part in the singles competition due to guilt. However, when it came to Yan Jiang, it was simply that he didnt want to participate. Yuan Ze had vaguely guessed at what the 18 year old Close wanted to do. But Yan Jiang had said to Close directly, Its not necessary. He was very clear about what Lu Feng was trying to do and knew exactly what he wanted to protect, but hed already signed a transfer contract and was the first person to decide to leave. Not necessary. Was being so persistent unnecessary? Was protecting what he wanted to protect unnecessary? Was sticking with FTW so unnecessary? Chen Feng didnt know, and he didnt think Close knew, either. Tang Chens voice called him out of his thoughts, He made it out alive! Chen Feng looked up sharply and saw that Close had managed to escape with a sliver of health left. His eyes widened slightly; he was a little dumbfounded. Tang Chens voice was excited, The space warriors attack was a bluff! Old Yan got tricked. I always feel that Close has been led astray by Little Lunatic Wei that even I believed his act just now! Chen Feng steadied himself and looked over, but hed already missed the wonderful scene from earlier. Chapter 176.2: A person who is immersed in the past cant win the future. Based on their understanding of Lu Feng, he would definitely rush up with a set of skills to trade his life for at least one of their opponents. Just now, Close had indeed fought fiercely, but it was an act. When the gun landed on the ground, if hed moved to the elemental shaman and smashed down a set of skills, he might have been able to take Yan Jiang down before he died, since the elemental shamans health wasnt in a good state after throwing out so many totems. Reasonably speaking, it was a major loss to trade a top-laners life for a supports, but in this situation where Closes death was inevitable, taking down anyone elses life was still better than nothing. Not to mention that the man in front of him was Y1s core. If he could drag him down to die with him, he could at least hurt Y1s momentum a little. That was what Chen Feng and Tang Chen thought, and the four little ones from FTW thought so as well. Even Y1 thought this way. Unexpectedly, Close stopped after playing out a set of skills. He originally shouldve continued poking at Yan Jiang with his spear gun, but instead, it shot out at an angle that went beyond their expectations. Yan Jiang was stunned for a brief moment. Y1s jungler made a small sound. They watched as the space warrior shifted, then landed after with his spear gun, his figure having shifted to a position behind the three players. Y1s top-laner reacted quickly enough and turned his warriors horse around, wanting to charge over and prevent Close from leaving. There was a patch of bushes up ahead. Close picked up his spear gun and used another shot to move into the bushes, leaving their field of vision. The death knight still wanted to pursue. Yan Jiang: Forget it. Death knight: ? Yan Jiang: Take down the tower. Instead of wasting time on chasing Close, it was better to take down FTWs first top lane tower. On FTWs side, Wei Xiao stood at the resurrection fountain and cheered for Close, Captain is so handsome! Brother Cai: Wei Xiao: Im so angry, Captain Yan is breaking us up, we, this pair of mandarin ducks! Brother Cais premonition had been correct. Choosing silence in advance was the right choice! Y1s rhythm was very good, but FTWs wasnt bad either. If this section was released out for various famous commentators to see, then they would definitely have a lot of material to boast with. Each aspect of the fight was very detailed, and every detail was pushed to the extremes. It was extremely exciting. But in the end, Y1 was dominant. Yan Jiangs real-time judgement ability was very strong, and giving up on chasing Close was the correct choice, The death knight may not be able to catch up with the space warrior, but the three of them could definitely take down the first tower in the top lane. One option had an unknown result, but the other was 100% certain. If they really went after Close, theyd have fallen for his trap instead. After one encounter that spanned from the lower jungle zone to the upper jungle zone, both sides suffered zero deaths, and the only loss was FTWs top lane tower. This was already the best result. Even if it left FTW with an open wound. After escaping with his life, Wei Xiao began to focus on developing. He soon realized how those people whod been controlled into seclusion by Yan Jiang felt during the opening game. He couldnt guess Yan Jiangs position, couldnt target his vision, and he was even less able to kill the teammates Yan Jiang was guarding. When Wei Xiao went to support Ning Zhehan, Y1s mid-laner wasnt anxious or hurried and casually tossed out a skill, but it perfectly coincided with Yan Jiangs control and beat Ning Zhehan up until ended up crying out, Whats with this? Its unrealistic! Wei Xiao also felt that it was unrealistic, but the reality was right in front of him. Wei Xiao went to the bottom lane to cooperate with Old Yue and Brother Cai, but the problem was even more serious in this round. Y1s bottom lane and support pushed the three players from FTW back until they had to hide under their own tower. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao let out a long sigh. Its my fault, I was unable to brush out the light arcs. Yan Jiang had interrupted his combo. Bai Cais heart felt very uncomfortable. Only by coming up against others from the same profession could one deeply realize the gap between others and themselves. Even FTWs impregnable top lane was now struggling. Losing the first tower at the start of the game had given Close a lot of pressure. Y1s death knight was at the world champion level and wasnt a three legged cat. Although he couldnt pressure Close, he was still able to hold him down. Holding down the great demon king was enough to create advantages for his teammates. Wei Xiao tried to support Lu Feng many times, but as long as he showed any hint of it, Yan Jiang would instantly lead his teammates to attack the mid and bottom lanes. Ning Zhehan and Yan Jiang werent weak. In fact, they were able to fight back and forth against their lane opponents, but they were unable to stop Yan Jiang. The elemental shaman came and went like a shadow, and as long as they caught a glimpse of a totems shadow, they were done for. Precise control where no skill missed. Yue Wenles bad habits were about to show up again towards the end. Im going to kill him! When the ADC was only focused on killing the other sides support, it was over even in a casual game. 30 minutes later, the severely fragmented FTW lost the game. There was silence in the training room. Even Wei Xiao didnt speak. Theyd lost. As expected. But their brains were still buzzing. Was this the world champion?! Was this the number one team in the world? Was this the man whod managed an incredible feat as a support and entered the Temple of Glory? Very strong. So strong that they couldnt even summon the energy to feel upset. FTW had also played with many other strong teams, such as L&P and Pro, during the winter training camp. Theyd lost before and had also been crushed then, but theyd never felt as powerless as they did this time. It was as though they were punching against soft cotton. They hadnt hurt the other side, nor had they harmed themselves, but there was an indescribable sense of frustration. The game room stopped at the settlement panel. A word floated up in the chat box. Yan: Quiet. Quiet: ? He didnt want to talk to him. Yan: Keep working hard. Wei Xiao: After putting down these three words, Yan Jiang left the room. The training match was over. Chen Feng clapped his hands and said, Alright. Everyone came back to their senses with his call. Chen Feng tried to pump them up, Your performance just now was very good. You have to know that Y1 was last years world champion, and its already great that we can play against them like this. There werent any big problems in this match, even if there are some small details that can be worked on. Y1 is a special team. Dont be discouraged. The coaching team will do the follow up work and study the details, and we can definitely win next time! Ning Zhehan and the others had been psychologically prepared since a long time ago and were able to pull themselves together. Yue Wenle answered, Mm. Wei Xiao was quite frustrated by Yan Jiangs character. When dealing with Old Dog Yuan, he could directly snark back, sniping at him until Yuan Ze wanted to span the ocean of distance between them and kill him. But when dealing with Yan Jiang, he couldnt say anything The other party hadnt provoked him and hadnt annoyed him. This sentence hadnt been a taunt and was spoken very sincerely Wei Xiao looked at Lu Feng and caught a glimpse of his computer screen. Hed already exited the game and returned to the games main interface. The chat channel was at the bottom left of the game, and there was a red private chat message thereCC Yan: You havent changed. Quiet needs more freedom. Wei Xiao stilled briefly. Lu Feng had already switched out of the game interface. He slid his chair back and got up. Well leave things like this tonight and rest early. Chen Feng agreed. Alright, free activity time. Everyone should go to bed by 12 oclock as tomorrows schedule is very full. The playoffs were about to begin, and they were very busy with training matches. Additionally, they also had to make posters and marketing videos, do interviews, and so on. They were extremely busy. Lu Feng left the training room first. Wei Xiao thought about it briefly and didnt go out after him. The three little ones soon forgot about the match. It wasnt that they were thoughtless, but rather that theyd been psychologically prepared, and the impact from losing the game hadnt been very big. Theyd be more impacted if they actually managed to win against Y1. FTW wasnt strong enough to win so if theyd really won, then Y1 would have been taking it easy on them. However, this time, theyd been taken seriously by the world champions. In a reverse way, it had filled them up with fighting spirit. The world championship wasnt so far away anymore. It might take a bit of hard work, some catch up, but it wasnt impossible for them to turn the tables! Wei Xiao felt a little uneasy. He hesitated for a while, but ultimately couldnt help himself and sent Yan Jiang a private message. Wei Xiao wasnt the type of person who would hide and beat around the bush. He spoke frankly, Im very free. Yan Jiang was still online and naturally saw his message at a glance. Wei Xiao felt that the momentum behind his words wasnt strong enough and added, In FTW, around the captain, Im very free! These were words from his heart and were filled with energy! Yan Jiang replied to him, but it was with another question, What about Close? Wei Xiao stared at this red private message and felt a little stunned. Yan Jiang didnt say anything else. Wei Xiao refused to be convinced by this, The captains also very free! Why wouldnt he be free? In the past, in FTW, he had to worry about the team and had to play jungler, but now that he was here, the captain could make his own choice and had the freedom to go up to the top lane! Yan Jiang replied, Freedom with shackles? Wei Xiaos eyebrows twisted. Yan Jiang spoke about something that Wei Xiao hadnt thought about, The head of FTW, shouldering the whole club, carrying everyone. Is he free? Wei Xiao felt like hed been stabbed in the heart, but he refused to accept it. These are responsibilities! Yan Jiang: Mm. Wei Xiao bit down on his lower lip unconsciously and typed a little forcefully, Should he have chosen to give up like you guys? Be like you guys, giving up on FTW, giving up on your former comrades, giving up on those who cared about you? Of the previous FTW, the old Team of Gods, only Close was left. Close was the only one carrying all these responsibilities! Theyd pulled out and gone their own way, leaving their past behind. Yan Jiangs each and every word stabbed right into the tip of Wei Xiaos heart, So Close gave up on himself. Wei Xiao was stunned. Yan Jiang asked a question that hed wanted to ask for a long time, Do you like Close? Wei Xiaos fingers trembled, Yes. Yan Jiang: Then why dont you learn more about him? Wei Xiaos fingers landed on the keyboard, but he couldnt type out a single character. Yan Jiang: A person who is immersed in the past cant win the future. Chapter 177.1: Yan Jiang took a breath and asked him,You arent thinking of buying FTW, are you?” Wei Xiao looked at this line of words in a daze. He felt like there was a wall blocking his heart, suffocating him so much he couldnt breathe. He refused to accept it. Theres no past! The current FTW is new! The captain wasnt wallowing in the past. Hed already set it down a long time ago. The current FTW was a brand new one, and although it didnt have the same strength as the Team of Gods, no matter whether it was him, Ning Zhehan, Yue Wenle, or Bai Cai, they were all working hard for that final trophy. They would definitely send FTW to the altar again! He might think this, but there was a tiny voice that popped out from a small corner of his brainCCwas that all it was? Yan Jiang had already said so much and didnt plan to continue being vague about the topic. He gave Wei Xiao the most straightforward sentence, More than FTW. Wei Xiaos hand froze. Yan Jiang: The 17 year old Close ran away from home. I dont know about his family situation, and I dont want to embarrass him. This was the last sentence. Hed already said all that could be said. Yan Jiang quit the game and left the training room. Time in a foreign country was different from time in the motherland. It was 10PM in China, but here, the sky was filled with the setting sun, reflecting off the slow-moving river like a ribbon of light. Yan Jiang lit up a cigarette, set his elbow on the railing, and looked coldly at the slowly setting sun. Three years ago. In the rising FTW, the half grown youth who had dreams in his heart had passed a sleepless night after learning that he was about to be sold like an object. The peak was fleeting, and profits and interests always reigned supreme. It was better to stop at the right time than let the Team of Gods become a bubble that popped in the next season. The maximum benefit that FTW could obtain would be to sell the players whod just won the world championship. Kim Sung-hyuns contract had expired, and hed decided to go home a long time ago. Yuan Ze, as a mixed blood, didnt care which competition zone he was in. Only Yuan Ze, Xie He, and Close hesitated when faced with this disaster. Their contracts were all in FTWs hands, and it was difficult for them to do anything. Xie He hated Yan Jiang the most in the team. If it wasnt necessary, then he could go without saying a single word with him for a whole month, but that day, hed taken the initiative to find their captain and asked him, What should I do? Yan Jiang: Xie He bowed his head. He was holding a cigarette that had almost burned down to his fingers despite the fact he hadnt even lifted it to his lips. I want to stay in China. He didnt care about something like the Team of Gods, and he didnt care if they separated or not. Their relationship had never been anything special and being opponents might be better than being teammates. Yan Jiang was very straightforward. FTW wont let you stay in China. The China competition zone couldnt afford such a high price. FTW just wanted to sell them for the best price, no matter which competition zone they ended up in. Xie He didnt realize that the cigarette butt was burning his fingers. His black eyes were fierce when he looked up. Then whats the point in transferring myself! He couldnt stay in China anyway, so what was the difference between getting sold and leaving by himself?! Yan Jiang looked at him. At least itll be your own choice. Xie He: The worlds number one support, the worlds number one mid-laner, the worlds number one top-laner, the worlds number one ADC Behind this infinite glory was boundless darkness. The development of the domestic e-sports industry had been slower than that of foreign countries, especially since various aspects of their society and ways of thinking had led to contempt and disdain for e-sports. China competition zones clubs, which hadnt achieved any significant results at the time, were far from being able to attract the attention of anyone with sufficient capital. Domestic clubs couldnt afford such a high price, but foreign teams were scrambling to put in high bids. FTW didnt care about how the whole competition zone was doing, and even had the mentality that they could hit the jackpot again: Even if they sold the Team of Gods, they might still be able to dominate in China, and they might even be able to cultivate a new team. Why not? Other than the Kim Sung-hyun whose contract was expiring, the other peoples contracts were all in FTWs hands, and they only had one way left to go. They could either be sold or take the initiative to contact the right team in order to fight for what was left of their final rights and interests. As long as the price was right, FTW would still respect their wishes. Yuan Ze had lived in North America before and went to a region he knew well. Yan Jiang and Xie He went to Europe. Yan Jiang went to WP, a place that only treated him as a cash cow. During those stormy, turbulent days, even someone like Xie He who never bowed to anyone had gone to seek out Yan Jiang, but Close never showed any vulnerability or helplessness. Yan Jiang had taken the initiative to go and find Close. In fact, of the whole team, Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun had the best relationship with Close. Unfortunately, Kim Sung-hyun and Yuan Ze found it difficult to understand how the other three felt. What they were going to face wasnt only leaving FTW, but also leaving their home country. Pulling up their roots and leaving home wasnt easy. Yan Jiang had always had a cold temperament. When faced with Close, who was the same as him, they could live broadcast in the same room and double queue together for three hours without saying a word. At the time, the fans had come up with all sorts of guesses, and their little articles proved, one after another, that they didnt have a good relationship. They even thought that Closes arrival was the root cause behind FTW splitting up. Because he was too similar to Yan Jiang. One mountain couldnt hold two tigers, not to mention two tigers from the Team of Gods. If Close was a lively younger brother, he might be able to neutralize the atmosphere, but Close was even colder than Yan Jiang and more independent than Xie He. How could he neutralize the situation? This was just exacerbating the conflict. But, in reality, Close had used soloing to accompany Xie He to train up a unique thousand layers of clouds. Kim Sung-hyun had also used his time soloing with Close to make him into a thief that all ADCs feared. Yuan Zes death knight and Closes hidden thief used to be Glorys best top-jungler combination. Theyd played out many wonderful operations and abused countless teams until they were bleeding all over. There was also Yan Jiang Was there anyone who knew that Closes nine light arcs had been mastered during the time spent double queueing with Yan Jiang? The Team of Gods couldnt play in the doubles competition. They couldnt let go of their pride and couldnt cooperate with each other. But theyd obtained an uncontestable 5v5 team competition championship. Yan Jiang went to find Close. At the time, Close was only 17 years old. His birthday was on Christmas Eve, so he would only turn 18 after Christmas. 17 years old was a very young age, but looking at the youth in front of him, it was hard for him to feel any sense of tenderness and immaturity from him. He was born with impeccable features, but he never laughed. His upbringing was obviously superior compared to that of ordinary people, and it made him seem even more out of tune with his surroundings. He was silent and didnt speak, and he never showed his happiness or anger. How was he anything like a young teenager? There were many adults who werent even as calm as he was. Yan Jiang didnt like him very much. It was hard to like someone who was very similar to oneself. What are your plans for the future? Yan Jiang asked him. Close was silent for a while. Yan Jiangs voice was even as he told Close all about the current situation and what was going to happen. Although he felt that Close understood it all, as an older adult, he still made sure that everything was explained clearly. At least for this moment, Yan Jiang had to regard him as a 17 year old youth, a minor. Close listened quietly without interrupting him from the beginning to the end. He didnt ask him anything. It was rare for Yan Jiang to say so much, and he also felt a little irritated after talking: Close understood it all already, and hed spoken of everything in such detail like an idiot. Me and Xie He are going to Europe. What about you? Yan Jiang tossed this question at him. Close suddenly raised his head. His pair of black eyes that had seemed to be forever unshakable showed a hint of anxiety. Yan Jiangs heart sank. Closes thin lips opened and closed, and he only said a single word after a long time, Mm. It was an ambiguous response. There wasnt a followup comment, statement, or expression of his own thoughts. However, Yan Jiang wasnt just anyone else. Regarding something that even Yuan Ze could suspect, how could he not have thought of it? Yan Jiang took a breath and asked him, You arent thinking of buying FTW, are you? Close: Yan Jiang only felt that his breath was blocked in his throat, cooling down the words he spoke, Its not necessary. Like before, Closes response was still a cold Mm. Those words gushed up to his mouth, but Yan Jiang was ultimately still unable to say it out loud. CCIts not necessary. No one is worth you paying out so much for. Getting away hadnt been easy, why go back? Yan Jiang signed a transfer contract with WP more quickly than anyone had expected. At the end, he sent Close a message, There arent any endless feasts in this world. It took a long time before Close sent him back three words, See you later. The FTW team loved soloing. Every time someone lost, they would say see you later to the other party. These words filled up the WeChat message boxes for the four people, Yuan Ze, Xie He, Kim Sung-hyun and Close. Only Yan Jiang never soloed with them, so hed never received this message before. See you later. How would they see each other again later? Yan Jiang stubbed out the cigarette butt and returned to the training room amidst the falling night. Chapter 177.2: No one understood Lu Feng, so he would be the one to understand him. Lu Feng stared at the documents in front of him, but his thoughts werent on them. The office was clearly empty, and it was a quiet night, but the constant sound of quarreling sounded in his mind. The magnificent house, empty corridors, the unrestrained roars of anger. Lu Mingze, get out of here! Qing Lei, dont be so shameless just because Im showing you respect. I really was crazy to marry you. If you have guts, then go get a divorce! Divorce? And make room for that woman you raised to move in? After that came endless anguish and resentment. If I hadnt given birth to you, I wouldnt have been trapped in this damned place. Its all your fault, why did I give birth to you! Sharp, stabbing pain pierced into his nerves. What Lu Feng felt wasnt just the pain in his head, but also the pain in his shoulder. E-sports? Our Lu Family doesnt have trash like you! You thought of your father now that youre short on money? What happened to your confidence when you ran away from home? Didnt you say you wouldnt come back even if you starved to death? Playing games? Ill break your arm! Lets see what big dreams you can have now! Bang, bang, bang. The knocking at the door woke Lu Feng up from this nightmare. There was cold sweat on his forehead, and his knuckles were sharply defined as his hand gripped the pen so tightly that it seemed like it would break. Captain? Wei Xiao pushed the door open a crack, and his voice came in, Are you busy? Lu Feng released his hand and got up to open the door. In fact, the door wasnt closed, and Wei Xiao had always come in whenever he wanted to, but Lu Feng pulled open the door and embraced Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao froze. He could feel that the arm around his waist was exerting a lot of strength, like a drowning person grabbing onto the only piece of driftwood, eager to leave the water and catch his breath. Heartache filled up his entire chest cavity. Wei Xiao hugged him back and called out to him softly in a gentle voice, Captain Mm. Its all right. Im here. With that, he touched the tip of Lu Fengs ear with his warm lips. It was a very light and soft touch, like the softest breeze in spring, sweeping away the cold night and bringing with it the scorching sun. Lu Fengs heart trembled, and he released him to kiss his lips. It wasnt a light kiss, and it wasnt a gentle kiss. It was almost like hed forgotten all technique. He was just kissing him, wanting him, longing for him. It was like a person who was walking in the lonely and cold, dark desert for a long time absorbing this only patch of clear water, this only source of survival. Wei Xiao was left breathless from this kiss, but he had no intention of pushing him away at all. Instead, he wrapped his arms around him and hugged him tight. Want to do it? Wei Xiao was emotional. Lu Feng didnt say anything. He just dropped fine kisses starting from the corner of his mouth and moving down, printing them against his beautiful jawline, his long neck, his protruding collarbone Wei Xiaos toes curled up uncontrollably, and there was no way to hide in a place as narrow as the sofa. Dont, like this His hands couldnt help but go down Lu Feng grasped his hand and said in a low voice, No. Wei Xiao couldnt stand it. No way, I-I cant help it. Lu Feng locked his wrists with one hand and kissed him. Just like this. Wei Xiaos eyes opened wide, and his voice trembled, Captain Captain Back in the bedroom, it took Wei Xiao a long time to recover. He was a little upset Hed obviously gone to have a heart-to-heart with the captain. How come it had gotten sexual and had even got so exciting? It was over. The captains skills were getting better and better, what could he do?! Wei Xiao was really a little bit afraid that he might actually die in bed during the off-season. There were still hints of it when Lu Feng came out of the bathroom. Wei Xiao stared at him for a while, and his brain started to heat up again. Why did he have to look so good! He couldnt think of proper things as soon as he saw him! Wei Xiao took a deep breath and jumped up. Ill blow dry your hair for you. Lu Feng paused slightly, then opened his mouth, No need. Wei Xiao ignored him. He pressed him down on the sofa, then bounced up again to go look for the hair dryer. Human adaptability was really very good. The Wei Little Xiao whod only done it once could already jump and bounce around after the event. Wei Xiao was only wearing a t-shirt and shorts. His legs were exposed when he knelt down on the sofa; they were slender and pale and especially attractive. Lu Feng bowed his head and let him blow dry his hair, but he couldnt keep from stretching his hand out to steady him. Wei Xiao was ticklish and shrank away. What are you doing. Lu Feng was worried that hed fall and removed his hand. But Wei Xiao had seen through his intentions. He held his hand and placed it on his waist, under his clothing. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao blinked at him. Lu Feng gave him a hard squeeze and made his legs go soft. After blowing his hair dry, Wei Xiao pillowed his head on his legs and said in a low voice, I spoke with Captain Yan for a bit earlier. The hand that Lu Feng was using to play with his hair paused. Wei Xiao flipped so that he was lying on his back instead of on his side and looked up at him, Captain. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao couldnt hide what he was thinking. Will we get married? Lu Fengs heart pounded hard. Wei Xiaos shamelessness had reached another level. If I were a woman, I would be pregnant by now. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao tsked, Theres so much, and it fills me up so well, I Lu Feng couldnt continue listening any longer. Shut up. Wei Xiaos mouth was reckless, but the blush on his face showed a bit of shyness. Could it be that Im wrong? Which time did you Lu Fengs finger moved, and he pressed down on Wei Xiaos lips. Wei Xiao didnt speak anymore and directly held onto Lu Fengs finger with his mouth. Lu Feng: After that, Wei Xiao, whose head was pillowed on his captains thigh, was given a shock. Youre hard just like that? Lu Feng couldnt bear it anymore. Go sleep early. Wei Xiao: Eh.. Lu Feng made as though to get up. Wei Xiao quickly hugged him around the waist and said, I wont mess around anymore, I wont. How could Lu Feng bear to get up? Wei Xiao rubbed against his belly and said coquettishly, I want to talk to you for a while. Lu Feng didnt dare to have him rest on his legs anymore. He pulled him up and held him in his arms. What do you want to talk about? Wei Xiao stared at brother tent and cleared his throat. How about we first Lu Feng raised his eyebrows. Wei Xiao was afraid of being driven downstairs and said hurriedly, Okay, okay, well just talk. Was there anyone whod been as wronged as he was? He wanted to help his boyfriend, but his boyfriend even got angry at him for it. Wei Xiao forcibly pulled the topic back on track. Captain, I want to be with you all my life. Lu Fengs chest was filled with warmth. He kissed the tips of his hair and said, Me too. Wei Xiao: Like a married couple. Lu Feng didnt like the term married couple. He whispered, I will always love you. Wei Xiaos mouth curved. Me too. Lu Feng believed him, and he knew that Wei Xiao also believed him. Was there anything that could be happier than this? Two people who loved each other and had connected hearts and minds. Wei Xiao had been circling around marriage for a reason, and he finally got to the main point, Mr. Lu. Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiaos eyes were curved, and he was shameless and impetuous. As your de facto wife, shouldnt I know something about your family? Lu Feng: It was a very serious topic, but because of Wei Xiaos wife, it suddenly felt different. For the first time in his life, Lu Feng didnt feel irritable and gloomy when he thought of his family, but rather had a mood of not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Lu Fengs lips curved. Wife? Wei Xiaos bottom line had already fallen to the bottom of the sea, Hus Lu Feng was scared of what he could get up to. Enough. Wei Xiaos smile was naughty. You dare to ask me to call you anything when youre f*cking me, but now Lu Feng bit him on the lips. Now, theres nothing you dont dare to say. Wei Xiao was afraid that the topic would run off again and quickly pulled this small train back on track. I, Wei Xiao, have a pair of parents I can do without. Youve seen my mother, and Ill take you to see Wei Quan later on. As of now, Wei Xiao still didnt want to call him dad. Lu Fengs heart ached for him. He agreed. Mm. Wei Xiao finished speaking about himself, so he asked Lu Feng, What about you? Lu Feng paused for a moment, his voice very light, Lu Mingze, Qing Lei. It was like the names belonged to strangers. There were no particular feelings attached to those names. Wei Xiaos heart felt somewhat bitter. Lu Fengs voice was very dry, but he tried hard to continue, It was an arranged marriage, boht parties were equally wretched Lu Mingze and Qing Lei tortured each other, but only the young Lu Feng suffered. Wei Xiaos nose stung from just listening to him. Captain Lu Feng didnt want him to shed tears because of this, so his voice became calmer as he spoke, Its okay. Ive already gotten over it. Father, mother, family, affection. Amidst his continuous efforts, his endless striving to be better, even when he made himself incomparably outstanding and achieved all their requirements, he still hadnt been able to receive the slightest response, so hed given up. Life wasnt just about ones parents. From the moment he stepped out of that house, Lu Feng only wanted to live for himself. Wei Xiaos heart ached badly. You will have me in the future. Lu Feng smiled briefly. Yes. Wei Xiao: I will be your friend, your lover, and your family. Lu Feng had once said this to him, and now Wei Xiao finally realized the weight of these words. He was giving him this, but it was also what he yearned to have. Lu Feng could hold back when Wei Xiao spoke dirty, but he couldnt hold back when he acted so clever and well-behaved. Little Xiao. Hm? Can we do it? Wei Xiao: ! Theyd take their time That was what the dizzy Wei Xiao thoughtCC Understanding was a process. It was impossible to understand someone thoroughly in one night. He had time as well as a desire for learning. No one understood Lu Feng, so he would be the one to understand him. Understand his past, his present, and his future. The author has something to say: Its sweet, boohoo. Chapter 178: When jungler kings meet, there must be a shou! Wei Xiao had a dream. The dream was vague, and there were many messy scenes piled up together. It was absurd and chaotic. He walked down the street where hed lived for over ten years. It looked like how it was now during his adulthood, but the scenes were from his childhood. There was a small shop that sold cheap snacks, an old man that sold roasted melon seeds, the grocery store grandma who was extremely nitpicky and wouldnt even let super cheap tofu off, and his favorite rice and oil shopCCthe one with glossy white grains and fragrant sesame oilCCthat made him feel as if he wouldnt get tired even if he watched it all day. Wei Xiao stood on the street, waiting for his grandma. Every time he had this dream, he would see his grandma. It was even more strange tonight, because he knew he was dreaming in his dream. Wei Xiao was waiting for his grandma, but what he saw was a little baby child with black hair, soft ears, and skin the color of snow. The child was only three or four years old and stood there alone, dressed in old clothing. His tender, tofu-like hands were smeared with dust, his gaze drooped, and his long eyelashes were like dark feathery fans, covering his bright black eyes. Then, Wei Xiao saw Wei Quan and Li Su. Wei Quan was scolding Li Su, and it was very unpleasant to listen to. Li Su was criticizing him and shouting that she wanted to get a divorce. Wei Xiao only felt that it was completely absurd as he watched this scene unfold. His parents didnt pay attention to anyone but each other. How could they get divorced? Until Li Su turned to the child and scolded, Its all your fault. If I hadnt given birth to you, I wouldnt have had to suffer in this damned place! The child hung his head, his long black hair covering his forehead as he opened his mouth and said, Im sorry. His voice was soft and light and was very apologetic, but an innate coolness could still be heard within the tone of his voice. Wei Xiaos heart felt like it had been smashed by a stone. He strode over to look at the childs appearance. Black hair, pale skin, dark eyes like pools of water in a deep valley that was quiet and impregnable. Lu Feng. Wei Xiao was stunned. Hed thought that it was himself, but it turned out to be a young Lu Feng. Wei Quan and Li Su began to abuse each other again, until the crazed Wei Quan swung his arm. Seeing that they were about to hit Lu Feng, Wei Xiao grabbed his wrist, his voice cold and angry, Dont touch him. Little Xiao? The mans low voice rang out in Wei Xiaos ear, pulling him out of the nightmare. Wei Xiaos heart beat very fast, and he couldnt return to his senses for a long time. Lu Feng hugged him, his voice hoarse, A nightmare? Wei Xiao hugged him hard and breathed lightly. Mm. What did you dream of? Wei Xiao shook his head. Its nothing, it was just a dream. Mm. Go back to sleep; its still early. Wei Xiao leaned into his arms and smelled that light familiar scent. His heartbeat gradually slowed down. He wasnt asleep, and he couldnt fall sleep, but his heart felt at peace. What had the captain experienced when he was a child? Had the captain also apologized to his irresponsible parents like that as a child? Wei Xiao had suffered this dream because of the regret in his heart. He regretted that he hadnt met Lu Feng earlier, that he hadnt been able to hold him, that he hadnt been able to A touch that was like a very gentle kiss landed between Wei Xiaos eyebrows. It was restrained and light, as though the giver was afraid of waking him up. The regret Wei Xiao felt in his heart scattered in an instant. Because there was no need to regret. He could protect the Lu Feng from the past now in the present. They were only three short days away from the playoffs. FTWs first game was against GOQ. It was the first game of the playoffs, and simultaneously, it would also be Closes first game after his return. Official marketing had already been launched, and the height of the fans expectations was endless. The tickets had sold out in one go, and there were even scalpers offering tickets at sky-high prices. When Brother Cai heard how much the tickets cost, he was dumbfounded. Brother Liu, lets sell bench seats Bench seats werent for the substitutes. It was seating offered for the teams personnel. It was at the very front row, the first row, and each row had five to six seats. If it was sold, they could make a huge amount of money. Brother Cais eyes had already turned into a string of dollar signs. Xiang Liu: Wei Xiao bonked him on the head. Be a little more promising. Brother Cai had just been running his mouth. A full man doesnt understand a hungry mans hunger. Wei Xiao jeered at him, You get 1000 a day for walking the dog, and 300 to squeeze watermelon juice, 500 if you bring me meals Brother Cai: ! Everyone present were insiders who knew the situation. Brother Liu pretended like he didnt know anything. Wei Xiao stared at him. With this, youre still hungry? The captain had already given this bastard enough subsidies! Brother Cai hurriedly said, Aiya, how could there be too much of such things. Wei Xiao raised his eyebrows. Brother Cai shut up. At this moment, Little Lunatic Wei unexpectedly had a bit of the presence of a boss lady. Great. Not only did Brother Cai shut up, he also shivered. His own thoughts had struck him with lightning and left him numb all over! When it came to the first game in the playoffs, the four little ones were all very relaxed. GOQ really wasnt strong enough to worry about. Not to mention now that Close was back, they would be able to beat up the other side unilaterally even if it was Brother Tang on the team instead. The GOQ players were also very relaxed. Ever since theyd been given an on-the-spot game replay review by the grandmaster, they had already managed to achieve very good results during the regular season. What kind of top four were they aiming for? For them to be able to enter the top eight was already something that made their club boss start laughing to himself in the middle of the night, so elated that he wasnt even able to close his mouth. It was even to the point whereCC It doesnt matter if you lose. Whats important is that you have to ask the grandmaster to help us review the game afterwards. GOQs mid-laner, jungler, and support who all still had a deep shadow on their hearts: There was really no need! The playoffs were equivalent to the end of the season. Compared with the long regular season that was packed with games, the playoffs only had a pitiful number of games. Eight into four had a total of four games. There were two games for the semi-finals. And finally, there was the national finals. No matter how they counted, it would all be over in a week. This years home game was in S City, so FTW didnt need to move around and was much more relaxed. 3U and TPT, who were far away in B City, were preparing to head to S City. Wei Xiao was idle and bored and went to help his captain make up for his live broadcast time. He encountered Asleep in the professional server. The scrolling comments were instantly excited. When jungler kings meet, there must be a shou! Ummmm, my Brother Sleep belongs to Cong Yi. My Q Cub belongs to the great demon king. So this script is actually: Two shous meet, so there must be a gong? Those who mess around should get lost! The straight men were used to the rotten Glory circle and even commented on it, Looking at the whole of the domestic Glory circle, other than Close, who has been confirmed to be a blade, who else can screw over Quiet? The scrolling comments were noisy and loud, but Wei Xiao didnt care. He asked Asleep, Which position are you going to play? Asleep: A. Any. Wei Xiao was amused, How about having your big brother play support for you? Asleep: Wei Xiao: What are you thinking, Laozi never plays support. Asleep: He snatched up the shadow thief in anger so that Wei Xiao didnt have a jungler to go wild with. Wei Xiao didnt mind and said, It just happens that this is my captains live broadcast room. In that case, Ill show you Closes new darling, the death He hadnt finished saying death knight when their team member in the second position snatched up the death knight. The scrolling comments were laughing like crazy. Things arent going the grandmasters way, this is beautiful. Grandmaster, dont panic. Youre on the fifth position, and you still have a chance! Like hell he had a chance. The fifth position was commonly known as the fill-in spot, and in the professional server, it usually ended up being the support position that was leftover. Wei Xiao typed, Brother, let me have the death knight. A string of Korean text came from the second position. Wei Xiao: He couldnt understand it! Wei Xiao didnt give up. He went to coax the third position, Little brother, can I have a mage position? Im a well known mage king. The fourth position asked, There are mage kings everywhere, and theyre all well known. Are you Xiehe? Wei Xiao was shameless. Yes, I just happen to be EVEs Xie He. The whole team: Unexpectedly, the third position sent out two Chinese characters, Ha-ha. Wei Xiao: ? The scrolling comments were filled with holy shit holy shit holy shit. Wei Xiao glanced at the scrolling comments and saw a line of words, The third position really is God Xie ahhhh!! Wei Xiao: What the hell. Not only had he matched up with Asleep, hed also matched with Xie He? The point being C both of them were his teammates? To hell with playing! There were fans whod gone over to look and come back, Reporting! Third position 123 (ID) really is God Xie. God Xie is also streaming! This was a very wonderful instance of crashing into other players. Wei Xiao was shameless and didnt panic after running into the real person. He could even laugh happily, God Xie, how about letting me play the immortal warlock, and Ill carry you to win? Xie He chose the immortal warlock at the very last second and typed, Okay. Ill carry you to win. Wei Xiao: There were a total of five positions. Asleep had taken the shadow thief in the first position, an unknown player in the second position had taken the death knight, and the third positions Xie He locked in the immortal warlock. There was also the fourth position, Mr. Making Trouble, and Wei Xiao was in the fifth position. Could it be that he would really have to help Asleep by playing support? No way! Wei Xiao struggled for a while longer. Fourth position, dont you want to play support for God Xie and appreciate the immortal warlocks beautiful appearance? The fourth position was someone who took delight in other peoples misfortune. Ill leave this wonderful opportunity to you. Wei Xiao: Seriously, if this was the international server, it wasnt impossible for Wei Xiao to take a thief and play as a support. But this was the professional server. If he really did that and the moderators discovered it, points would be deducted from his credit score. Besides, he was also live streaming, and if professional players started putting on an act in the game, then they could give up the idea of playing in competitions. It was rare for the audience to see the grandmaster trip up. The scrolling comments were filled with people delighting in his misfortune, and all of them were filling the screen up with the words Wei Xiao had said beforeCC How about having your big brother play support for you? What are you thinking, Laozi never plays support. The corner of Wei Xiaos mouth twitched. He selected a holy priest at the very last second of the countdown. He yelled, Brother Cai! Bai Cai: What? Wei Xiao: Come here, let me give you a chance to compete on the same stage as God Xie and Sleep God. Bai Cai: I just started a game. Wei Xiao poked his head over. What talent did you take? Bai Cai: The holy priest, Im double queuing with Old Yue. Wei Xiao: There was no difference even if they switched! The scrolling comments were already shouting, Accept it, grandmaster, just accept it. Speaking of which, why doesnt the grandmaster play support and occasionally experience the joy of getting carried? Wei Xiao: No. The fans were curious. Why, why? Wei Xiao gritted his teeth. Ill only play support for my captain in this life. Hed only just finished saying this when Lu Fengs voice rang out from behind him, When was that? Wei Xiao: ! Wei Xiao had turned on the camera. From the second Lu Feng entered the camera, the screen had already been filled with shrill chicken screams and ah, Im dead. Now, the scrolling comments covered up the whole feed. Lu Feng didnt turn off the live broadcast. He looked down at him. I remember you mentioning it before. Was it prior to entering the team? Wei Xiaos face heated up inexplicably. Yes. Lu Feng: Lucky audience member? Wei Xiao: Yes Not only had he been a lucky audience member, hed also had a fangirl persona and had blown a whole set of rainbow farts, to the point where the entire live broadcast room had given him a title: the rainbow master. This black history was too dark. Even someone like Wei Xiao, whose shamelessness was as thick as city walls, felt a little embarrassed. Lu Fengs heart felt a little itchy when he saw Wei Xiaos well behaved appearance. He bypassed this live broadcast accident and touched Wei Xiao briefly on the shoulder. Leave this game to me. Wei Xiao blinked. Lu Feng: If you dont like it, then dont force yourself. Ill play the holy priest. The scrolling comments grew even more crazy. As everyone knew, the great demon king was one who really didnt play the support position. The reason? FTW.Close was nicknamed orphan, not because of his thief, but because of his support! If Yan Jiang was a godly support, then Close was a demon! There were new fans who didnt know about this, so they asked, Is the great demon kings support really crappy? The old fans were sincere and earnest. Its not crappy, its just come on, come on, everyone should type out their heartache for Sleep God on the public screen. Chapter 179.1: Feeling heartache for Sleep God... Why should they feel heartache for Sleep God? Because Asleep was protected by an immortal support like Cong Yi all the time. Now that he had suddenly fallen into the great demon kings hands, the difference hed understand once he tried it. Wei Xiao hesitated. You want to play? He didnt want to force the captain. Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao: Kay, you play. He saw the scrolling comments out of the corner of his eye as he got up. A large stretch of purple comments were packed densely together, filled with my ship is sailing, my ship is sailing!. Wei Xiao looked calm on the surface, but flowers bloomed one after another in his heart, and he wished he could type out a scrolling comment of his own to clarify, Its not that your ship is sailing. You should say that your CP is real. In the time it took for them to change seats, Lu Feng had already entered the game. The holy priest talent was one of the oldest hero talents in Glory. Priests tended to be healers in all sorts of games. Just from listening to the name, it was obvious that the holy priest belonged to the light class and was a major healer. In Glory, the holy priest was indeed the number one healer. Its first skill, Hymn, could heal friendly troops within range, including but not limited to teammates. It could even recover health for the small soldiers. The second skill, Symphony, was also commonly known as Bubble Tune. It was a very tricky control skill. After it hit an enemy target, it would bounce continuously between targets within a controlled distance. The number of times it bounced relied on the players operations. The third skill, Concerto, increased movement speed for the player and designated teammates. It would also restore 50% of the health that teammates had lost within the last three seconds. The ultimate move, Aria, was affectionately called the Light Gate by the players. After the skill was released, it would create a gate covered with holy light and was a strong control skill that locked in an enemy while helping friendly targets recover a large amount of health. There were a total of four skills. Other than Bubble Tune that had a bit of damage, Hymn was a pure heal, Concerto was heal and acceleration, and the Light Gate was either a control skill or a heal. Three and a half out of the four skills were all heal skills. Glorys number one healing talent lived up to its name. How could such a harmless talent be used to play like the damned? Reasonably speaking, Wei Xiao was also a bit curious. Hed started playing Glory late, and the Team of Gods had already been a thing of the past two years before that. There was some old news that could no longer be found, and the rest only lived on as legends. For example, Closes support could silence God Kim, leave Captain Yan speechless, and make Yuan Ze and Xie He declare that he needed to stay away from them. Other peoples holy priest was really holy, but his holy priest was mentally ill Other peoples light priest was like an angel of light, but his light priest was like a demon coated in holy light Did they have to go so far? Although Wei Xiao couldnt play support, he wasnt so bad to the point where it became a crazy demon. He pulled over a chair and sat down next to Lu Feng. He propped his chin on his hand and stared at the screen, glancing at the scrolling comments out of the corner of his eye. The scrolling comments: Ahhhhhh, Close and Quiet are too well matched! One cold and cool great demon king, one cheeky little prince. Fellow sisters, Im dead. I used to think that no one could match with Closes face in this lifetime, but now Mama is relieved! Little girls mouths were so sweet nowadays Wei Xiao thought to himself: No wonder there were so many little brothers who loved them to death and back. The game started, and the holy priest followed beside the shadow thief. This was a normal routine. Asleep was a jungler who tended to lead the rhythm of the game, and it was normal to have a support player beside him. Asleep didnt know that there had been a change in players and still thought that the holy priest was Quiet, so he wanted to show off. The first jungle creeps in the top jungle zone were usually the three jungle creeps in the lower left corner. Asleep was an old jungler, and his skill linkage was smooth, his normal attacks accurate. He could dodge and avoid the jungle creeps damage and maximize DPS. Wei Xiao watched seriously and commented in his heart, Brother Sleeps jungle clearing efficiency isnt bad. To finish off three jungle creeps in six or seven seconds meant that his rhythm was very stable. Seeing that Asleep was about to use the last shadow attack to harvest the jungle creeps, there was a ringing sound. The fingertips of the priest in a white robe flashed, and a symphony popped out. It bounced from creep A to B to C, rebounding three times in one second A bold gold coin symbol was popped up over the holy priests head. Asleep: Wei Xiao: Scrolling comments: Hahahahahaha, its coming, its coming. Lu Feng typed, Hand slipped. Like hell his hand slipped! How could there be this kind of mistake?! If this was Brother Cai, Brother Cai wouldnt make this kind of mistake even if he was beaten to death! In Glory, no matter whether it was a jungle creep or small soldier, everything depended on who was the last to deal damage. Why did players have to practice last-hitting like crazy? It was because gold coins only went to the player who made the last attack. Only with gold coins would they be able to buy equipment, develop, and be able to carry the whole game. Under normal circumstances, the support wouldnt eat even a small bite of the available resources, and they would feed it all to their c-position, raising him up until he was fat and full so that he could deal tons of damage. Close was obviously not a normal support. Asleep still thought that the other side was still Quiet. He paused for half a second before moving on to attack the next jungle creep. This time, Asleep was clearly putting more effort into it. Reasonably speaking, it was very difficult for a holy priest to snatch up jungle creeps. If it was anyone else, they wouldnt be able to get the last hit even if they tried on purpose. And then The bold gold coin symbol popped up over the holy priests head again. Asleep: Wei Xiao lowered his gaze and looked at the holy priests equipment: Sure enough. The scrolling comments had also discovered it. The holy priest started with an iron sword. No wonder its general attack hurts so much. Its a very sad story. The holy priests farm is higher than the shadow thiefs. Who exactly is acting as the support player here??? There were also haters who started kicking up a fuss. Close is really arrogant. Hes using the holy priest to snatch up farm, so does he plan to use the holy priest to show off across the whole canyon? Although hes the great demon king, I dont believe that a holy priest who doesnt even have the power to kill a chicken can kill people like flies. If they lose, then report Close directly! The fans were calm. What are you so anxious about? Just because you cant do it, it doesnt mean that others cant. After one round of clearing the jungle, Asleep finally discovered the problem. You He turned on team chat and reluctantly spoke a single word. Lu Feng opened up the team chat as well and spoke five words, Stay steady, we can win. This voice was too recognizable. Asleep could tell who it was as soon as he heard it. Cl Wei Xiao couldnt hear what was being said on the other side of the headset, but he could guess it and shouted, I dont want to play support, so my captain is playing for me! Make way, make way, let Laozi show off first. Asleep: At this time, the immortal warlock with the ID 123 typed out a line of text and finished off Brother Sleeps words. Close? Lu Feng: Yes. The immortal warlock stopped where it stood and didnt even try to avoid the other sides magic beam. A line of red words appeared in the chat box half a beat later, Stay away from me. The scrolling comments laughed so hard that they couldnt breathe. Was God Xie switching font colors just now? Look at this bloody red color. It represents anger that flares all the way up to the skies. Three years later, God Xie once again realized the fear of being dominated by Closes cursed support! Soon, his teammates also noticed that there was something shady about the holy priest. This farm that was the highest in the whole game, this demonic build. If it werent for the fact that they could see the name Close, they wouldve already started cursing and swearing long ago, okay?! Although, they also wanted to curse right now. What the hell was he playing at?! What was the use of having a support with such high farm? The holy priest didnt have anything like the nine light arcs. Brother Sleep was too pitiful. Firstly, he was silent and didnt like to speak. Secondly, he was a high and lofty jungler, but he could only pick up the farming remnants that leaked through their supports fingers. TRAGIC written in capital letters. His farm wasnt good, and he wasnt high-levelled enough. There was no way for him to lead the rhythm of the game. When the other side came over to gank Asleep, everyone felt that they would be done for in this game. Even if they had God Xie, it wasnt enough to make up for this inhumane holy priest! And then Everyone experienced a huge shock. Three people from the other team had come over. They all charged at the shadow thief, which was a very logical decision. The holy priest could heal and resist, but he dealt no damage and beating him up was just a waste of time. Pouncing on the key DPS position was the important thing. As long as the shadow thief died, then this brain-damaged holy priest could just be taken down at will. Everyone thought so, and the scrolling comments even started to say that they didnt dare to watch the scene. Ding, ding, ding. Bubble Tunes sound effect rang out as Lu Feng controlled the three people. The three opponents werent flustered. At most, they were surprised that the holy priests Symphony was used well, but what was the use in that? Bubble Tunes damage was very low, and its control was negligible. Then, the holy priests light and floating normal attack flew towards the other sides demonic mage. The demonic mage didnt take it seriously at all. Even if he was a squishy talent, this small amount of damage wouldnt hurt him. -2000. A critical hit was triggered. It dealt an additional -2000. The demonic mage with a total health of only 5000 was suddenly confused: ??? What the hell! Asleep reacted quickly. He launched a shadow dash and rushed up, smashing down a series of moves. Although the shadow thief didnt have good equipment and could only deal weak damage, it was still enough to kill the demonic mage. First Blood was about to happen, and the pitiful shadow thief was about to get rich. System Announcement: First Blood. I Like Close The Most killed uwi. First Blood had indeed happened, but it wasnt Brother Sleeps. Instead, it went to the holy priest Everyone at the scene was speechless, and the shadow thief was even more stunned. Ding dong. The holy priests third skills sound effect rang out. Lu Feng said, Attack. Healing and acceleration. The two of them instantly closed in on the two opponents who were still alive. These two people had finally seen Lu Fengs equipment clearly: Damn it, what the hell was this?! In this round of 2v2, the holy priest took another two kills. The Brother Sleep who had ended up with nothing at all: Lu Feng used a Hymn to help him recover the health hed lost. The scrolling comments hit the mark, Hymn praise? I know that the great demon king is only healing Sleep God, but how come it seems like I can scent a hint of irony. Be a bit more confident and get rid of it seems like. Feeling heartache for Sleep God Ten thousand pieces of heartache Chapter 179.2: The cold faced great demon king actually had double standards?! This game could only be described as strange and wonderful. The other side was beat up until they went into seclusion by the holy priest, and their own side was also abused into seclusion by their own healer. It turned out that the most terrible thing wasnt having the healer snatch kills and farm. The most terrible thing was losing their last hits to his basic attack. It didnt matter if it was a kill or a lane soldier, a jungle creep or even an ancient creature. It didnt matter if it was the death knight or the shadow thief or the hunter or Oh, God Xie was really worthy of being God Xie. The immortal warlock was the only man who had the same farm as the holy priest in the whole canyon, and there wasnt much difference in their kill counts. The game was over in 30 minutes. There was no doubting this victory. But this way of winning made them want to go into seclusion more than if theyd lost! What kind of damned support was this! Like hell was it support, he was f*cking more like a c-position than a real c-position! The old fans in the scrolling comments were very calm. I thought that the great demon king would be a bit more discreet in the professional server. As it turns out, as long as its a random team, the great demon king is completely able to play one against nine. Not to mention when God Xie is a teammate. Tsk, there are knives in this sugar! Wake up, its clearly some sugar on this knife. It was a random team, so exiting out of the settlement interface also meant leaving the game room. Wei Xiao paused for a moment, then praised his boyfriend, Amazing. When he placed himself in the other players position, he felt a lot of heartache for Asleep, but the captain was handsome no matter what he did, and he was amazing no matter what he did, and he was peerlessly strong no matter what he played with. Lu Feng lifted his head to look at him. Double queue? Wei Xiaos eyes lit up. Okay! After that, there was a very large double-standards scene in the live broadcast room. Lu Feng and Wei Xiao double queued. After entering the game, one of them was on the fifth floor, and it was a position where they couldnt pick their talent. Wei Xiao rubbed their hands. Ill play support for you! Lu Feng: No need. Ill do it. Wei Xiao: ! Seriously, the holy priest from the last game was too poisonous. Wei Xiao was afraid that it would affect the husband and husband relationship between the two of them if his captain really used it again. Lu Feng looked at him, and the corners of his lips curved up slightly. Dont be scared. Wei Xiao: Forget it, forget it. Dying under the captains smile meant that he would be popular even as a ghost! Wei Xiao watched on as Lu Feng picked the holy priest again. He gritted his teeth and set his shadow thiefs equipment purchasing set-up to buy tank gear. It was alright, he would use the shadow thief to support his captains holy priest. As it turned out, Wei Xiao had overthought things. The poisonous holy priest from the last game was now so normal that he didnt seem right during this game. Snatching jungle creeps? He didnt do so. Taking kills? It never happened. Buying equipment for critical attack, attack speed, high DPS? What are you thinking? It was a gentle holy priest with a full suite of support gear. The scrolling comments sent out more strings of ellipsis than when theyd been sending out heartache for Sleep God. Damn! Who wouldve dared to think that the high and lofty, cold faced great demon king would actually become known for having double standards?! Who said that his support was damned? Who said that his support was poisonous? Wasnt he playing very normally? His healing and control were all on point, protecting the shadow thief like a little baby. He gave up on all farm, gave shields, and cherished the jungler king in the palm of his hand. The audience in the scrolling comments couldnt watch on. Close, blink if Brother Cai has taken over your body,! Im a straight man, but I can feel myself getting cavities. The CP shipping sisters: So sweet, so sweet, so sweet, its so sweet Im going crazy, this old lady can eat this sugar for 100 years! During one hour of live streaming, the two games that were played formed a very sharp contrast. The fans were just excited and felt that their cooperation was seamless, and this CP was a perfect match. But several people who were familiar with the inside situation were in a complicated mood. Chen Fengs eyes were red. Tang Chen was very pleased. This is great. Yuan Ze, who was far away in North America, was still sleeping when Kim Sung-hyun called him. Yuan Zes grumpiness at being woken up was shocking. F*ck your mother, Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyun: Let my mother off and come for me. Yuan Ze: .. Get lost! Kim Sung-hyun sent him a file. Quickly take a look at this. When did Old Shit Yuan ever have to see the sun at eight in the morning? He was swearing and cursing after he received the file. If you woke me up for something as unimportant as a fart, then Ill take a flight to Korea to get you Kim Sung-hyun: Watch it if you want to. He hung up the phone with a beep. Yuan Ze had only slept for three hours. His head felt dizzy and swollen from the lack of sleep. He lit a cigarette and opened the video. In one segment of the live broadcast video, Quiet ran into Xie He during solo queue. Yuan Zes eyelids drooped. Damn it. Proud Flower Kim was just asking to be scolded, this was such a small thing Then, he saw Close show up on camera and take over the holy priest. Yuan Ze: Kim Sung-hyun wasnt asking to be scolded, he was asking to be screwed over! Was Laozi losing sleep to watch this kind of damned thing?! He cursed fiercely in his heart, but his hand was very honest. Yuan Ze finished watching Closes poison priest expressionlessly and got ready to flame Kim Sung-hyun. Lu Fengs voice rang out. Double queue? Wei Xiaos black eyes blinked. Okay! The next game in the video woke Yuan Ze up. He was already numb to Closes cursed support, and it was nothing new. But hed really never seen Close playing support normally before After watching the whole video, all of Yuan Zes anger was gone. He kicked his feet into his slippers and went out to the balcony. He took a few hard pulls from his cigarette. Closes support was no good. Outsiders didnt understand, but the Team of Gods was very clear about it. He didnt play like that on purpose; it all happened unconsciously. Getting the last hit, dealing damage, carrying the whole scene. He had to have the feeling of holding the game in his own hands. This was a side effect of absolute control. At first, Yuan Ze had thought that Close was deliberately messing with them. Later on, they learned why. It was the teams psychological counselor whod come up with the answer, Close cant trust his teammates. Because he didnt trust them, he had to master the rhythm himself. Because he didnt trust them, he could only strengthen himself. It was also because he couldnt trust them that he had to hold everything up on his own. It wasnt obvious when he used thieves, since this was a profession that required farm, showing off operations, and leading the rhythm of the game. Combined with Yan Jiangs ability to integrate, Close performed very well in 5v5. No one realized his fatal problem. But once he changed to playing support, this well-hidden insecurity would be fully exposed. A support player required teammates, and it needed the ability to offer and receive trust, being willing to give and cooperate. Close didnt trust others, couldnt leave things to others, and couldnt cooperate. He was a lone wolf in the canyon. It was his own fight. Yuan Ze bowed his head and sent Wei Xiao a message, Closes shoulder doesnt only need medical physiotherapy. At this time, Wei Xiao was playing in a training match. His cell phone was on silent, and he didnt see the message. After that, Chen Feng came in with a soul-sucking poster in his hands. He had even less time to go look at his cell phone. Chen Feng pasted the poster up onto the glass panel, and the flattened picture made everyone suck in breaths of cold air. What was a fantastical, hellish doctrine? Just looking at this Cthulhu-style poster was enough to let you get a sense for step one, two, and three. The poster went up, and the three little ones in the training room went crazy. Coach Chen opened his mouth, The competition rules for this years global competition have been released. As soon as this came out, everyone held their breath. The game, Glory, had lasted for so many years, but it hadnt remained static. From the initial exploratory stages to the present maturity, the competition committee had experienced many bumps and turns along the way. Last years global competition first consisted of a round robin, then elimination matches that culminated in the finals. It had been said at the beginning of the year that this years global games would be more stimulating, and there were different opinions on exactly how things would change. Now, the news was out. Chen Feng: First of all, Ill share the good news. This years Glory global competition will be held in China. The four little ones, including salted fish Brother Cai, all exclaimed in surprise. Ning Zhehan even flushed with excitement. Chen Feng continued expressionlessly, The bad news is that in this years global competition, the China competition zone only has one spot. The training room fell silent instantly. Last year, the China competition zone had three spots, and the top three from China had been able to enter the competition. This year Chen Feng continued, Its been three years. The brilliance left from the Team of Gods in the Chinese division has already faded away. This year, our competition zone has been classified as Class C. In a Class C competition zone, only the division champions could enter the global competition. The three year slump their competition zone had experienced had led to their seed team quota being reduced to one. If the China competition zone still couldnt achieve results this year, then the scene next year would be too terrible to imagine. Originally, it was a very joyful thing to have China host the global competition. Unfortunately, at this time, it inexplicably brought with it a sense of irony. It was their home battle. If their results were poor, then wasnt it Chen Feng tossed out another heavy bomb. The round robin qualifying round has been cancelled in this years global competition. The teams will go straight into the elimination matches. The training room: !!! What did that mean? This meant that all teams only had one chance. Either win or be eliminated! Chapter 180.1: Wasnt the end of an era also the start of a new era? The FTW training room was quiet. It wasnt just them; all the clubs that had received the news were silent. 3U, RR, TPT. So many excellent teams had risen up in the China competition zone this year, but opportunities wouldnt wait. Three years ago, FTW, as the only team from the China competition zone, had won the global championship with a huge 3:0 advantage. There had been 16 teams in the elimination round, going from 16 to 8, from 8 to 4, then there were the semi-finals and the finals. FTW won all the way to the top and hadnt lost even a single small game. They then won the world championship with a huge 3:0 advantage. That year, the China competition zone performed brilliantly. The five players from FTW held up the golden championship cup beneath a shower of golden light, having shocked the world. Yan Jiang, Xie He, Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Close. Five young people with unfamiliar faces welcomed the cheers of players from around the world! FTW was honored in the Temple of Glory, and the China competition zones seed team quota changed from one to three as they became a Class A competition zone. Three years later, FTW had split apart, and the China competition zone had fallen into a slump. If it werent for Close obtaining the singles championship, they might have been relegated last year. However, a singles championship title couldnt stop the decline of the competition zone. This year, a new competition system had been launched, and the reduction of their quota meant that the situation was more tense. Boring games couldnt mobilize the audiences enthusiasm, and the global competition needed more exciting competitions. Weak teams were eliminated, and strong teams would fight against each other. Ensuring every game full of excitement and fun was exactly what the competition committee wanted! China wasnt the only competition zone that had been downgraded. Japan, South Korea, and North America had also been downgraded, and only the European competition zone that had won the world championship last year had two spots in their quota. The competition system was cruel, but it also aroused an infinite desire to fight. E-sports had always been cruel, and leaving room for unnecessary fights would instead lead to decadence. Letting go of all concerns and fighting hard, taking each step on the tip of a blade, was the real way to fight! Wei Xiao was the one to break the silence. F*ck! As soon as he opened his mouth, the gaze of everyone in the training room turned towards him. Wei Xiaos eyes were black and bright, the scattered light reflecting inside like a cluster of flames. It shouldve been like this a long time ago. If we dont play well in the domestic competition, why should we go play in the globals? Chen Feng: Wei Xiao: Especially teams like TPT who hide their ability. This time, I think they wont dare to hide anything! One sentence was enough to wake up the dreamers! Little Lunatic Weis thought process was always different from that of ordinary people. But once they accepted his ideas, they became very open-minded. Indeed, the new competition system had really wronged the China competition zone. Going from three spots to one was like getting a direct hit over the head. But this wasnt necessarily a bad thing. Was the only reason why the China competition zone had been in a slump for three years because the Team of Gods had split apart? Was it only because excellent players had gone elsewhere that they werent able to pick up again? No. Perhaps it was the three global competition spots that had really shackled the China competition zone. The top three from their competition zone could go and play in the globals, so why did they have to try their best when they competed in domestic competitions? A domestic champion team couldnt even compare with the top four in the world. Instead of wasting time at home, it was better to focus on the globals and fight for a bigger competition stage. Following this train of thought, if they didnt even fight properly in the domestic games, then what would they use to fight against the strong teams abroad? It was just like how the regular season was the training period for the playoffs. How was the domestic competition not the training period for the globals? If they messed around during the training period, then what would they use when they went to play in the global competition? Perhaps the competition committee had also noticed this point, which was why theyd directly cancelled the cumbersome qualifying rounds, making the fighting more intense and the global competition more exciting. The seed team cuts werent limited to the China competition zone, so other than the championship zone from last year, the remaining competition zones were also nervous. The domestic championship was no longer just a domestic competition. It was the key to higher Glory; it was the gatekeeper, the breakthrough point, a precursor to the highest level of Glory! Wei Xiaos heart stirred, and he blurted out the words that were suppressed in his chest, Isnt it good? Three years ago, FTW went out of the country and lit up the whole world. Three years later, lets tell everyone that the China competition zones champion is the world champion! The youths bright voice held burning passion, scalding everyones heart with a wave of raging heat. Fear, tension, uneasiness. To hell with it all! Having no way back was actually the royal road to victory! Ning Zhehan abruptly stood up as well and said loudly, Brother Xiaos right! The China competition zone champion is the world champion! Yue Wenle and Bai Cai followed suit and started shouting, too. The gloomy atmosphere in the training room was wiped out and replaced by vigorous fighting spirit. The domestic games. The global elimination matches. They couldnt lose a single game! Looking at these two children who were acting like they were still in middle school, Chen Fengs eyes started burning and his competitive heart, which had been ground down over time, started to fire up again. Three years. It had been a full three years. Could FTW build up its brilliance again? Chen Feng couldnt help glancing at Lu Feng. Lu Fengs gaze fell on Wei Xiao. He still had the same calm and unperturbed look, and he was still steady and self-contained, but the black eyes revealed beneath his eyelids showed a touch of arrogance. Chen Fengs heart felt a shock. He breathed lightly. Be mentally prepared, next up, were in for a hard battle. The four little ones: Were not afraid! Chen Feng: You cant lose a single game. The four little ones: Yeah! Wasnt the end of an era also the start of a new era? The glory from the Team of Gods had faded, but a new sun was rising up. Preparing for the playoffs wasnt all talk. They had double the training, added longer and more detailed game replay reviews as well as more targeted, individualized training plans. Training time for professional players had always been long. In the days that came, they grew to wish that they could just live in the training room. Lu Feng also handed over most of his work and focused on training. He and Wei Xiao had a bigger burden. Not only did they have to break in formations for the 5v5, they also had to train for the singles and doubles. This years competition system had changed greatly, and it was not just in the overall framework. They also needed time to analyze and adapt to the new double and singles competition mode. Fortunately, FTW had already planned to go the path of the top-jungler linkage in the doubles and 5v5, so Close and Quiet could use the 5v5 games to practice too. As for the singles, there was no need to worry about Closes personal operations. As long as he played normally, nobody in the domestic competition zone could stop him. After a day of training, Wei Xiao heard Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle cheering each other on. Little Ning: Tomorrow, Im going to go dye my hair black. If we dont win the championship, then I wont dye my hair anymore!! Little Nings greatest joy in life was his granny gray, granny blue, granny purple hair. He didnt feel comfortable if he didnt have his hair dyed in various colors. These harsh words of his were really filled with fighting spirit. Yue Wenle fell silent for a moment, then dropped his own words, If we dont win the championship, then I wont eat chips anymore! This was even more ruthless. The God Le who would rather break his head open and bleed everywhere than lose his chips had actually put down the root of his life for the sake of the championship! Wei Xiao was really entertained listening to them. He caught a glimpse of the Vegetable Salted Fish and asked him, What about you? Brother Vegetable: ??? Wei Xiao repeated Little Ning and Yue Leles words to him. Brother Cais reaction: ! Wei Xiao: These little brothers are all trying so hard. Brother Cai, you should make a statement too. The corners of Bai Cais mouth twitched. Wei Xiao raised his eyebrows. After being forced by Little Lunatic Wei, Brother Cai also had to be harsh on himself. If we cant get the championship, Ill Ill Wei Xiao looked at him slowly. Brother Cai gritted his teeth, Ill hand over all the small fees that the captain gave me! Holy shit, his heart hurt so much that it felt like it was splitting apart just from saying it! Wei Xiao thought it over. Bai Cai thought that he felt that it wasnt enough, so he added, And I wont take any small fees in the future. Ill walk Brother Soy, squeeze watermelon juice, and feed Beast Wei for free! Wei Xiao laughed and scolded him, Youre a f*cking beast. Not bad, not bad, Brother Cai had also committed himself. After Bai Cai spoke these fierce words, his heart hurt so much it was clenching. He looked at him. What about you! Wei Xiao: As for me Bai Cai stared at him. Wei Xiao suddenly leaned in close and whispered a sentence. Bai Cai: ! Wei Xiao: Thats enough, right. Bai Cai: Get lost! Get the hell out! Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle, looked over when they heard the commotion. Bai Cai: This shameless Little Lunatic Wei was really too much! Chapter 180.2: Yuan Ze: Only you can help him. What kind of ruthless words had Wei Xiao tossed down? Brother Cai really didnt dare to repeat them, but Wei Xiao told Lu Feng about it after he went back to the room. He first spoke about the three little ones, then blinked and looked at Lu Feng. Captain, do you want to know what I swore to do? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao laughed evilly. I wont say it if you dont ask. Lu Feng pinched his fingers. Say it. Wei Xiao licked his lips. Kiss me. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao leaned over and kissed him. If we dont win the championship, then I wont get into bed with you for three days. Sure enough, human language wouldnt come out of his mouth. Lu Feng stared at him. Three days? Wei Xiao hurriedly said, It cant be any longer! After that, he changed his words, And anyway, well definitely be the champions. He was full of confidence. It was very moving. Who wouldnt like this kind of inner confidence? Lu Feng released his hand and asked him, Do you know what the schedule is for the playoffs? Eh? Wei Xiao wanted to get close to him. How come the topic had switched to this? I have a general idea. Lu Feng looked at him. Do you know the timing? Wei Xiao spread his fingers and counted. Ten days. It only took ten days to get from the first game to the national finals. The most important ten days. Lu Feng suddenly held his waist and gave him a long kiss. Wei Xiao was kissed into confusion and forgot everything theyd been talking about just now. It wasnt until the captains whisper drifted into his ear, During those ten days, no sex. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng released him. Go to sleep early. Wei Xiao slowly gathered his wits and opened his eyes wide. What??? Lu Feng didnt repeat himself. Wei Xiao pounced on him. Youre not going to f*ck Lu Feng couldnt listen to this, Shut up. Wei Xiaos mouth was covered. He blinked his eyes. Lu Feng stayed steady, and his heart didnt soften. The training is too intensive, your body cant take it. Wei Xiao pouted. If you didnt last so long, I would definitely be able to take it. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao felt bad just thinking about it. What do you mean, no sex? Youre right in front of me. I Lu Feng took a breath and coaxed him, Solo. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Fengs voice was gentle. During those ten days, Ill accompany you whenever you want to solo. A huge battle took place in Wei Xiaos mind. And then Captain, youre too evil! Lu Feng gave him a kiss. Wei Xiao: Its obviously your fault, and now, I have to accompany you and abstain from sex! Lu Feng both loved and found himself unable to get angry with this mouth of his. Wei Xiao: If you werent so big, didnt last so long, and your waist wasnt so good Lu Feng blocked his mouth so that he couldnt go on. Wei Xiao complained for a while, but he eventually grumbled and acquiesced. Unexpectedly, as soon as he agreed, Lu Feng told him to go to sleep early. Wei Xiao was surprised. Its enough that were not making love, but we even have to sleep in separate beds??? Lu Feng: You sleep in the master bedroom. Ill sleep in the guest room. Wei Xiao: No! There was a rare hint of compromise in Lu Fengs tone. I cant hold back when I sleep with you. Wei Xiaos heart was sweet. Then dont hold back. Lu Feng looked at him. Thinking of what hed just promised, Wei Xiao said ruefully, Fine, fine, I wont tease. Lu Feng spoke in a low voice, Be good. Wei Xiao was sincere. I really wont tease you. Well just sleep. Lu Feng smiled briefly and kissed his forehead. He repeated, Im the one who cant hold back. This gentle sentence made Wei Xiaos heart turn into a puddle of water. Lu Feng said good night to him again. Wei Xiao felt wronged to death. Good night. How was he supposed to sleep that night! After a good night kiss, Wei Xiao lay down on the bed and thought of his boyfriend. Lu Feng was next door, and the two of them were separated by a wall, but Forget it, forget it! Wei Xiao turned over and lay flat on his back, telling himself, Its only ten days. To hell with ten days. He was already starting to miss him after just one minute. Wei Xiao took out his cell phone and was just about to send Lu Feng a message. Old Bandit Yuan: Closes shoulder doesnt only need medical physiotherapy. This message leapt up into his eyes, and Wei Xiaos restless heart suddenly calmed down. Previously, hed been busy the whole time and hadnt seen this message. Only now, when Wei Xiao looked at the time, did he find that it was already four hours later. Fortunately, it was still a decent hour in North America. Wei Xiao replied back to Yuan Ze, What do you mean. Yuan Ze was in the middle of having lunch. Finished training? Wei Xiao: Yes. What about your captain? It was alright when he didnt mention him, but once he did, Wei Xiaos heart felt sour. Next door. Yuan Ze didnt think too much of it and lit up a cigarette. I saw the recording of his doubles game with you today. Wei Xiao: Holy priest? Yuan Ze: Mm. Wei Xiao: My captain knows how to play it. He just hadnt been willing to cooperate with Asleep in the first game. Yuan Ze spat out a smoke ring. Like hell he can. Wei Xiao couldnt bear to hear anyone say bad things about Lu Feng and was about to blow up when Yuan Zes next words pushed his temper back down. He only trusts you. This one sentence smoothed Wei Xiaos fur back down again. Wei Xiao typed, Of course. Although Yuan Ze couldnt see him, he could still see that Little Lunatic Weis tail must be flipped up towards the sky from reading between the lines. He sighed lightly. Hes 20 years old, and has finally learned to trust others. Wei Xiaos eyebrows twisted briefly. Instead of lying down, he sat up and leaned back against the head of the bed to type, Isnt it because you guys are too scummy. Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao: Three years ago, if the Team of Gods hadnt broken up, would my captain have been so miserable? The cigarette in Yuan Zes hand was no longer so fragrant with Wei Xiaos straightforward words. He extinguished the half-finished cigarette and typed carefully, An opportune place and an opportune time. It was a vague sentence, but Wei Xiao understood it, and he even felt a burst of heartache. The right place and the right time, neither of which could be omitted. Indeed, even without mentioning the Team of Gods from back then, he himself had left Lu Feng two years ago. Close had come to FTW, met Yuan Ze and Yan Jiang, and won the world championship, standing on the highest podium of Glory. He must have changed. At least in 5v5, in the team competition, he started trying to trust others. It was a pity that the next step was the fragmentation of their team, and this attempt that had been made with much difficulty collapsed completely. Close didnt trust his teammates, so he couldnt bring himself to say that he wanted to buy FTW. Whether or not he could manage it was already a question mark. Whether or not they would stay for him was also another question mark. Close didnt trust his teammates, and he didnt even trust himself. Yuan Ze hesitated for a while, then finally typed out a line, Back then, I didnt understand why Yan Jiang chose WP. Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment. Yuan Ze continued, WPs reputation was very bad. Yan Jiang knew that very clearly, yet still signed the contract. It really wasnt his style. At the time, Yan Jiang signed with WP and was scolded extremely fiercely in China. They almost nailed Yan Jiang up onto the pillar of shame. What kind of garbage team was WP? It was famous for only caring about money. As long as the money was there, the players didnt matter. Theyd signed Yan Jiang at a high price, but they only looked at his fame and everything else was as important as a fart. At that time, the domestic fans went crazy. However much they liked Yan Jiang was how much they had hated him back then. Without mentioning how he walked away so emotionlessly, just the fact that hed chosen WP was enough for people to scold him to death. Why else would he have chosen WP? It was only for the money. Fans also hoped that their favorite players could live a wealthy life, but giving up their faith and persistence and becoming a tool for money was looked down on. After going to WP, the domestic audience couldnt see that Yan Jiang refused to cooperate with the team, but Yuan Ze could. In the first year, WPs results were dismal, and Yan Jiang was flamed like a dog by the European competition zone. Then, WP went too far and was even less willing to treat Yan Jiang like a person as they tried their best to squeeze out all they could of his value. Yan Jiang gathered evidence and fought a lawsuit for an entire season before finally terminating his contract and going to Y1. In 2020, he led Y1 to win the world championship. But what was the purpose of those two years? As long as he waited for one more month, Yan Jiang could have completely avoided WP and gone to EVE with Xie He. EVE was countless times better than WP. At the very least, they wouldnt squeeze their players to death. Yuan Zes fingers itched slightly, but he didnt light another cigarette. At the time, Yan Jiang knew what Close intended to do. Hed known that Close wanted to buy FTW and had known that Close would persist in doing so. Wei Xiao was stunned and sat up even straighter. Since he knew, why did he have to go? Yuan Ze touched on it lightly, A 17 year old youth wanting to buy a giant. Its not something that can be done without paying a price. Wei Xiao: Yuan Ze: FTW wasnt a third rate team. They had a lot of capital behind them, and acquiring it required more than money. No matter how clever Wei Xiao was, he was still a stranger to these things. His experience limited his thinking. There were many things that went beyond his imagination. Yuan Ze continued, Close never spoke about his family background, but his surname is Lu. In S City There really was a famous family surnamed Lu. Wei Xiaos back chilled. He finally understood why he felt that the names Lu Mingze and Qing Lei were familiar. If it was that Lu Family, then Close could definitely buy FTW, but would his parents support him? Wei Xiao gripped the phone tightly. He ran away from home and came to FTW, then went back to beg them for FTW Yan Jiang was right. We dont deserve for him to give up his life. Wei Xiaos eyes were red, and his fingers trembled. Yuan Ze closed his eyes for a moment, then typed bitterly, His shoulder injury wasnt from strain, it was trauma. Wei Xiaos heart froze. Dense pain spread through his chest. Yuan Ze was also very unhappy, He was only 17 years old and had only played for a bit more than a year. He also liked to exercise; how could he have strained it? No one knew what Lu Feng had gone through when he went home. A professional player, a 17 year old youth whod just won the championship, what had he experienced, and what had he had to compromise before acquiring FTW?! Wei Xiaos voice felt like it was blocked by a stone. He couldnt say anything at all. Yuan Ze took a light breath and said slowly, Wei Xiao, he trusts you. FTW wasnt the only thing that shackled Lu Feng. Only you can help him. Chapter 181: This years Glory is ours! Lu Fengs suite had three rooms and one living room. Wei Xiao was in the master bedroom, the study was in the south, and the last room was the guest room. After Lu Feng said goodnight to Wei Xiao, he didnt return to the guest room and instead went straight to the study. May nights were cool. After the rain, there was a lingering sense of dampness in the room that stuck to the skin, making it hard to breathe easily. Lu Feng pulled at the neckline of his shirt, tugging down the round collar of his t-shirt and revealing half of his pale collar bone. Unfortunately, it didnt relieve the feeling of stuffiness at all. There was a little countdown on the bright computer screen. Every team had this kind of thing. It was similar to the countdown to the college entrance examination, but every second and every minute of this timer counted down to the end of the season. A lonely end or honor and glory. Expectations were hidden in these numbers and embedded in the heart. Lu Feng shifted his gaze away. His fingers curled lightly, and he pulled open the unlocked drawer beside him, revealing a document that had been placed there neatly. He leaned forward slightly, took out the document with the black cover, and held it in his hands. The back of his pale hand contrasted with the black file. There was a whisper of sound as the document flipped open. Lu Feng dropped his gaze and looked at these words that hed already memorized. This was an agreement to a gamble that had been signed three years ago. It was signed by: Lu Feng, Qing Lei. That year when Lu Feng went home, hed had a showdown with Lu Mingze in the hopes that he could buy FTW and help him. From childhood until 18 years old, Lu Feng had never begged anyone for anything, especially not his parents. There was nothing to ask for. What Lu Mingze wanted the most every day was to have another child who had nothing to do with Qing Lei. Unfortunately, it was futile no matter how hard he tried. Qing Lei hated Lu Mingze, and she also disliked Lu Feng, who looked like Lu Mingze. For her own benefit, shed even tossed young Lu Feng abroad for three or four years. Lu Feng had already known very clearly that he had no home by the age of six or seven. Having a mother and father didnt mean one had a home. The house Lu Feng lived in had nothing to do with the home that was written about in books. Strangers who were related by blood. This was the definition Lu Feng had for them. But at the age of 18, when faced with FTW splitting apart, they were the only ones Lu Feng could think of. He had spoken to Lu Mingze about the e-sports industry, the huge profits that could be gained after investing as well as the prospects and future of the club. Lu Mingzes response to him had been a baseball bat. He had hit him heavily on the shoulder, truly wanting to render his sons arm useless. Lu Fengs forehead was coated in cold sweat, but he didnt feel much pain. His shoulder was numb, his heart was numb, and the last cluster of flames went out. Lu Mingze hit him like hed gone crazy. Lu Feng didnt dodge, he didnt leave, and he didnt cry. All the way until Lu Mingze grew tired. He called him a piece of trash, then slammed the door and left. Lu Feng stood there in the magnificent living room. He was there all night. Lu Mingze didnt come back. At ten oclock the next morning, an exquisitely dressed and made up Qing Lei came down from the second floor. Standing on the curved staircase paved with white marble this woman in high end clothing didnt appear middle-aged at all. She seemed to have stopped aging at 25 or 26, using money and selfishness to maintain her beauty. Qing Lei stopped on the third step and looked down at him from above. I can help you. Lu Feng raised his head abruptly. Qing Leis colorful lips seemed to be painted with blood. As you know, I never do business at a loss. Lu Feng whispered, I can manage the club well. Qing Lei chuckled lightly. Triple my investment. Lu Fengs heart sank. I need time. Qing Lei: Youre 18 now. At 21, then. Lu Feng didnt say anything. Qing Lei glanced at him and continued, Theres another condition She approached Lu Feng and spoke in his ear, If you cant win the world championship by 21, youll get the hell back here and be an obedient dog. Qing Lei was a business woman and would never say empty words, even if it was to her only son. Every clause in the agreement drawn up by the lawyer was put into practice. The investment amount, the rate of return, the income distribution all the terms were clear. Anyone who looked at this agreement would find it absurd. What Qing Lei gave Lu Feng was a piece of poisonous driftwood that had made him suffer from corrosion and torture in order not to sink to the bottom of the sea. From 18 to 21. Lu Feng won three global singles championships, but the agreement required a team competition championship. Lu Fengs birthday was in December, and this years world championship was his last chance. If he didnt win the championship, he not only would he have to retire, he might not even be able to protect Wei Xiao. Lu Feng leaned back in his chair, his eyes revealing a rare trace of fatigue. If he was an obedient dog for Qing Lei, then what qualifications would he have to be with Wei Xiao? Knock, knock, knock. Along with the knocking at the door came a youths clear voice, Captain? Lu Feng tossed the document back into the drawer and adjusted his mood as he stood up, Havent you slept yet? His voice had just fallen when Wei Xiao pushed open the door and came in. Lu Feng saw his red eyes, and his heart leapt up. Whats the matter? It was obvious that hed been crying. Wei Xiao threw himself into his arms and hugged him. Lu Feng was a little at a loss. Dont cry, what happened? Wei Xiao liked to mess around during normal days and liked to pretend to cry, but Lu Feng was very clear about the difference. He could tell whether he was really suffering or if he was just playing around. Wei Xiao buried his face between his shoulder and neck and spoke in a trembling voice, Your shoulder Lu Feng patted him on the back. Didnt you read all the treatment reports? Its already recovered. Wei Xiao shook his head. Was it hurt because Lu Mingze beat you? Lu Fengs hand froze. Wei Xiao looked up at him. How did you acquire FTW three years ago? In fact, Wei Xiao had thought about a lot of things before he came over. He wanted to be gentle, wanted to speak in a roundabout way and had wanted to talk to the captain about it slowly. But as soon as he entered the room and saw Lu Feng, all of his plans disappeared. He just wanted to tell him what he thought, and he wanted to accept all of Lu Fengs intentions and thoughts. Without hiding, avoiding, or covering up anything. They trusted each other. Lu Fengs hold loosened. There were a lot of words he wanted to say, but they were stuck in his throat and wouldnt come out. He glanced at the drawer hed just closed out of the corner of his eye, and the agreement covering his gamble appeared in his mind. He wanted to show Wei Xiao, wanted to tell him everything, wanted him to know. But, he couldnt. Winning the championship was already a difficult enough task. The burden on Wei Xiaos shoulders was already heavy enough. Would it crush him? His Little Xiao was only 19 years old. But he felt guilty for hiding it from Wei Xiao. Hed made so many promises, yet hed turned out to be a complete liar. Wei Xiao wouldnt let him avoid his gaze. Tell me. Lu Feng could only look him in the eyes. Wei Xiao had just been crying, and the tears that coated his black eyes made them even brighter, Tell me all of it. Lu Fengs thin lips trembled. Sorry. Wei Xiao was anxious. What are you apologizing for? I love you! These three words shot straight into Lu Fengs chest. Wei Xiao looked at him without blinking. I love you, so I want to know everything about you. I want to share joy with you, and even more, I want to shoulder the pain with you. Could it be that you dont feel the same? Lu Feng: Could it be that you dont Lu Feng breathed in lightly. I love you. Wei Xiao was a little shorter than him. He had to stand up on his tiptoes to kiss away his frown. Wei Xiao kissed him decisively. His eyes were firm. Tell me. Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiao waited for him patiently. Lu Feng wavered. Come with me. Wei Xiao kept up with him and watched as he pulled open a drawer. He saw the lonely file placed inside. Lu Fengs fingers trembled as he handed the document over to Wei Xiao. Im sorry; I lied to you. I lied to you about accompanying you forever. I lied to you about being able to stay with you forever. I lied to you about giving you love, family, and a home. In fact, he had nothing. He didnt even have himself. Wei Xiao bowed his head and looked at the document. He read it very slowly, going over every word very carefully. The wording was very proper, the words official and rigid. This was an agreement that didnt hold any human feelings. In order to acquire FTW, Lu Feng had promised Qing Lei a lot of conditions that were difficult to achieve. Triple the return on investment. Extremely excessive profit distribution. Shocking terms, one after another. If it was shown to any club management, they would all be struck dumb with awe. However Lu Feng did it all. There was only one condition left, and it was the most deadly one. CCWin the global team competition championship before the age of 22 or retire and return home to do Qing Leis bidding. Did Qing Lei love Lu Feng? No. Then why did she give a helping hand? On one hand, it was to gain revenge against Lu Mingze, and on the other hand, it was to control Lu Feng. She and Lu Mingze couldnt get a divorce in any case, and Lu Feng was Lu Mingzes only successor. If she could control Lu Feng, then the ultimate fate of the grand business empire would still be in her hands. Lu Feng sold himself when he signed this agreement. Wei Xiao spent 20 minutes reading over the entire document. Although Lu Feng didnt look at it, it was imprinted on his heart, and he was very clear on what was written. When Wei Xiao closed the document, Lu Fengs heart beat violently in his chest. Hed lied to him. Hed really cheated Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao trusted him so much, but he Wei Xiao raised his head, and there was no sorrow or disappointment in his eyes. On the contrary, they were shockingly bright. So this means, we just have to win the championship! Wei Xiao clenched the document hard and spoke in a tight voice, Your birthday is on December 24th. Theres only one global competition left before that. Lu Feng stilled for a moment. Yes. Wei Xiao suddenly held his hand and said excitedly, Youll be free if we take down the championship! Lu Feng felt like he was in a trance. Wei Xiaos eyes were filled with excitement and joy, and the words he spoke were like a hammer that broke open the heart hed closed up tight. Although Wei Xiao didnt know much about operating a club, he knew that FTW had developed very well in recent years. The haters even flamed Lu Feng, saying that he might as well not play games and go be a businessman instead. Wei Xiao pointed to the terms of the agreement. This one, this one, and this one. Youve done them all already, right? Lu Feng nodded. Wei Xiao then asked, Only the last one, the team competition championship is left? Lu Feng dropped his gaze. Yes. Wei Xiao breathed lightly and hugged him. Thats great, this agreement is great! Lu Feng was stunned. Wei Xiao kissed him hard. I didnt understand wrong, right? This is a gambling contract! If you cant meet the terms in the contract, youll have to retire, go home, and do Qing Leis bidding. If you achieve all the terms in the contract, then you can stop listening to her! A gambling contract. No matter how harsh the terms were, they were binding to both parties. Qing Lei had given Lu Feng very strict demands so that he wouldnt be able to achieve his goal and would fall into her control. But if Lu Feng managed to succeed and achieved them all, then he would be able to get rid of her completely! If they could look at the problem from another perspective Hell was nothing but the scenery along the way to heaven. Lu Feng understood what Wei Xiao meant. It took him a long time to find his voice again, But, the team competition championship Wei Xiaos eyes curved, and he twined their fingers together. For The Win. This years Glory is ours! xiin: if you look at this novel from another perspective without WX to lighten things up, some parts of Glory would stab me hard enough to leave me broken and bleeding to death Chapter 182: God Q, wheres your husband? Wei Xiaos thought process had always been different to that of others. When faced with this gambling contract, most people would see heavy burdens, pressure, and cruel deprivation. Even Lu Feng, who had struggled against his fate, had only seen the burden he had to carry to move forward. Only Wei Xiao saw the buds of new growth emerging from the decaying ruins. And he himself was the light that broke through the night sky, the light that allowed the bud to take root and grow! Lu Fengs dreary heart grew bright. The damp coldness from the rainy night was swept away, leaving behind brilliant sunshine. Mm. His voice quivered slightly with this single monosyllable. Wei Xiao wrapped his arms around his neck and pressed their foreheads together. Captain. Hm? Im very happy. Im very happy that you showed me. Lu Feng: ! Wei Xiao wasnt afraid of difficulties and dangers, nor did he feel burdened moving forward. He was afraid of being alone. Lu Feng was alone. He was also alone. Bearing burdens alone wasnt beneficial to the other party. Rather, it pushed them away. For two people who loved each other, what they desired the most of all was to move forward in life side by side. One person might find it impossible to solve a problem alone, but two people together might suddenly see the light. When one was tired from staring on ahead, why not turn around and take a look at the person beside them? Their ten fingers were intertwined, and the edge of the knife, the sea of fire, became insignificant. The dark haze in Lu Fengs heart dispersed. He looked at Wei Little Xiao, who was only a short distance away, and finally couldnt bear it anymore. When the two of them separated, Wei Xiaos face was red, his ears crimson. Captain, you kiss so seductively. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao, whod previously stirred up endless trouble due to how they were abstaining from sex was now faking being serious. Dont seduce me. Im going to focus on training. Lu Fengs kiss landed on his neck. The sensation made Wei Xiaos body shiver. We said wu Lu Feng kissed him. Tomorrow. Wei Xiaos eyes curved. Tomorrow? In that case, captain, go for it. Please do it enough for ten days Lu Feng picked him up, then went to the two meter wide bed in the master bedroom. Later on Dont worry, no matter how much he could do it, it still wasnt possible to fit ten days worth in one night. Even if Lu Feng could do it, Wei Little Xiao couldnt. The consequences of letting his mouth say whatever it wanted was that Wei Xiaos eyes ended up red and his voice hoarse the next day. Brother Cai was shocked. You Wei Xiao: Brother Cai picked up a piece of leek for him. Supplement yourself well. Wei Xiao hated eating this kind of thing. Get lost! The internet was also boiling with activity after the new competition system was announced. The audience scolded the game organizers for being stupid, calling the new system idiotic, saying that the competition system was becoming more backwards, and claiming that it was becoming less interesting the more they changed it. They claimed that the game organizers didnt even want money anymore. Just from looking at the competition system for the globals, many investors also wondered about what they intended to do. The global competition that had originally lasted for a month was now compressed to a short week. Dozens of games were now reduced to a little over ten. Were they giving up on the ticket money? Did they not want the live broadcast fees anymore? Was advertising money not attractive anymore? Were they treating money like dung?! It was only after the official game spokesperson came out to clarify that everyone suddenly saw the light. The game committee wasnt treating money like dung at all. They were releasing a long fishing line to catch big fish. The Glory system had a gaping wound that had lasted for many years. The global competition was outstanding, but the competitions in various competition zones were in a slump. Every global competition was given special, extra attention, and regardless of whether it was tickets, broadcasting rights, or naming rights, they were all extremely profitable. But Glory had over ten competition zones, and their competition period lasted for nearly eight months, while the global competition only lasted for a single month even before the restructuring. This one month created great value, but had also had a deep impact on the competitiveness of each competition zone. The seed teams from each competition zone were clumsy and werent played to their fullest potential, making the competitions in each competition zone very uninteresting to watch. The audience wasnt stupid. Instead of spending money there, why not wait for that one month of globals? One after another, each competition zone was sucked dry by the global competition, and the situation in some smaller competition zones became increasingly difficult. The global competition was important, but the individual competition zones were the foundation for the globals. The competition and the game complemented each other. If the competition in the competition zones were weakened, it would only reduce ordinary players devotion to the gameCCnot all national teams were able to play and shine in the globals. If they lost ordinary game players, then what would happen to the competition? Fighting to the death domestically, then also having a fierce battle globally. That would be a genuinely brilliant performance. Shortening the global competition cycle and strengthening the domestic competitions would create more exciting games. Making the competition more brilliant would kick off a virtuous cycle. Of course, no matter how much the game organizers and their water armies explained, the players would still scold whatever they wanted to scold. The game officials understood the deep responsibility brought about by the love in their hearts (presumably). Two or three days passed by quickly. Wei Xiao had really been working hard these days. Not only were there training matches, hed doubled his personal training, and when he had time, he would pester Lu Feng for solo like crazy. He really wished that there were 48 hours to a day so that he could master the shadow thiefs nine light arcs. Even Lu Feng couldnt pinpoint exactly what was needed to fully master the nine light arcs. Practice made perfect, but it wasnt the case for the nine light arcs. The theory for the nine light arcs was out there, and even the formula for the combo was very clear. Although it was more troublesome than the combo for other skills, it was still relatively easy to memorize. The difficulty lay in the rapid changes that took place during the game. In competitive games, it was the unexpected that made them so interesting to watch. But it was also the unexpected that made things so difficult. There were changing talents and changing professions in the canyon, different ways of matching up equipment, and different players with different styles and positioning The mix was ever changing and could even be endless. How could nine light arcs be played out amidst these changes? It wasnt impossible, but it was very risky. Instead of relying on the nine light arcs, it was better to reduce the effort spent there and practice other talents. This was why most people didnt pursue the nine light arcs. An unstable absolute kill skill was far less reliable compared with basic skills that succeeded 100% of the time. There was an element of luck in competitions, but anyone who relied on luck had IQ problems. Wei Xiao was so persistent with the nine light arcs for two reasons. Firstly, he was confident that he could achieve it, and secondly, this was something he yearned for. He believed that he could do it, and he yearned for it because Lu Feng had achieved it, which led to his persistence. Neither Chen Feng or Lu Feng tried to stop him, which was also related to these two reasons. No one could do it, but Lu Feng could do it. No one could do it, but Wei Xiao could also do it. His self-confidence made others believe in him. After the promotional video was released, the China competition zone welcomed its first game in the playoffsCC FTW vs GOQ. As the first team in Group A, FTW took the lead in the playoffs. The competition time was set at 3:30PM. FTW set out from their base to the venue at 2PM. In the van, Wei Xiao leaned towards Lu Feng and said quietly, Speaking of which Lu Feng lowered his voice, What? Wei Xiao counted on his fingers. You promised me before that we would solo for three hours for each game we won in the regular season, ten hours for each game in the playoffs, and 100 hours for the China championship This little brain of his was really the limit. He remembered everything so clearly. Lu Feng glanced at him. Wei Xiao chuckled. Does that mean that we can solo however I want from now on? Lu Feng had really already paid out too much time soloing because of the sex ban. Mm. Wei Xiao naturally had a reason for bringing this up. In that case, this agreement cant be voided. Lu Feng: You cant have already obtained the global championship achievement in advance? Wei Xiao still remembered this. Oh yeah, if we win the global championship, then itll be for as long as I want. Lu Feng: So? It would be void regardless. Wei Xiao leaned in even closer, his breath blowing into his ear. How about changing solo to making love. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao wanted to say more, but Lu Feng pulled off his coat and covered his legs. Wei Xiao: ? Lu Feng held his hand under the coat. Shut up. Wei Xiaos heart felt sweet, and he quietly scratched at his palm with his fingers. Lu Feng closed his eyes to rest his mind. When they arrived at the stadium and the fans waiting outside saw FTWs van, their shrill screams penetrated through the window, scaring awake the sleeping Brother Cai. Wei Xiao slid down the window and waved to the fans. The fans screamed even more fiercely, and there was a sentence mixed with the shouting, God Q, wheres your husband! Wei Xiao: That person changed their words, Oh, thats not right, God Q, wheres my husband! Wei Xiao was originally going to let Close show up, but now, he straightened his waist and strictly blocked his captain from view. Your husband? You must be dreaming! Brother Cai, whod noticed this little detail: Wasnt sleeping great? Why did I have to wake up! In the backstage lounge, Wei Xiao saw GOQs mid-laner, jungler, and support trio. The three children stood upright and stopped just short of giving him a salute. Wei Xiao waved his hand. Work hard. The three children: Yes, grandmaster! We will work hard, grandmaster! Wei Xiao was amused. What are you working hard at? These three children had a sense of propriety. Well work hard at lying flat! Wei Xiao clapped them on the shoulder. Not bad, not bad, your futures are promising. Bai Cai: Can you be a little less f*cking shameless? Was your future is promising supposed to be used like that? Dont insult these four words! Their words might be bratty, but they played very seriously once they went up on the stage. The better their private relationship was, the more they should play their hardest in the arena. For example, when it came to the three from GOQ, after becoming grandmaster fanboys, they became even more eager to kill the grandmaster, even in their dreams. They were too embarrassed to ask FTW for a training match, but they would regret it for a lifetime if they didnt seize this opportunity now that they were meeting in the competition. These three had indeed been polished by their experience, and their performance was very promising. Ten minutes into the start of the game, Wei Xiao went to GOQs top jungle zone to seize resources, while Little Ning provided vision from the mid-lane. The ice mage isnt here. Brother Cai also spoke from the bottom lane, Theres only a druid here. Which meant that the other sides support wasnt there. Wei Xiao looked at the minimap and understood in his heart. Captain! Lu Feng: Okay. In the live broadcast room, the fans who were watching from Gods perspective were all panicked. Is Quiet just going to go in alone? There are three people from GOQ hiding there! This red daddy is bait, and the big fish theyre trying to catch is Quiet. Ahhhh, stay steady, grandmaster! We cant afford to play recklessly in the playoffs! The haters also started to make noise, Lets congratulate GOQ on winning the first playoffs in advance! They might not get the first win, but theyll get the first kill. This years dark horse sends out a First Blood. God Q is really godly! The scrolling comments were filled with scolding, but the commentator noticed more details. Close is coming closer, but GOQs top-laner hasnt noticed yet! GOQs top-laner had been pressured too miserably. He didnt dare to poke his head out even when clearing his lane soldiers, always feeling as if the great demon king was waiting for him everywhere. Wei Xiao finally arrived at GOQs red jungle zone. Seeing that the other sides ice mages skill was tossed over, the berserker thief tossed his scythe towards the grass and interrupted the skill, locking in on the ice mage. GOQs mid-laners heart was shocked, and he cried out in their team chat, I-I-I got locked in! GOQs jungler forced himself to remain steady. Dont panic, there are three of us. You die first, and the two of us will get revenge for you! The ice mage cried and wailed. After being drawn in by the berserker thief, he saw something out of the corner of his eye, and his heart practically froze. I seem to have caught a glimpse of the divine warrior In this game, Close had taken the divine warrior. GOQs jungler: GOQs support: The two of them spoke at the same time, Is there still enough time to run away now?! Wei Xiao could see what they were thinking in their hearts through the screen. Its too late. xiin: i think i got the chapter number right this time *whistles* Chapter 183: Beaten up by the husband and husband pair... The berserker thief landed a whole set of skills on the squishy ice mage, while GOQs jungler and support also sent out their skills. The giant shaman played well, covering the ground with fire before his huge body landed and shattered the ground over the whole area. Wei Xiao happened to be within range and was sent flying by special effects that made the ground look like it was cracking open. The commentator, Brother Big Mouth: The giant shamans ultimate move was used beautifully, and the spread of the ground fire was well controlled. He calculated the berserker thiefs positioning and sent him flying with the edge of the skill. Commentator Lili continued, Unfortunately, it was a little far away. The wind storm thief was unable to deal damage right away. Brother Mouth: Close has arrived, and the divine warriors control reduction buff lands on Quiets body! This situation was changing too fast! The giant shaman had landed a perfect ultimate move, but the divine warriors buff reduced the effectiveness of the hit by 50%. Originally, it could control Wei Xiao for two seconds, but now, it could only control him for at most one second. This one second was deadly. The wind storm thief reached DPS range and played out its skills. If this one second of control hadnt been lost, then Wei Xiao wouldve died. But with this one second, Wei Xiao was able to avoid at least half of the attack. The wind storm thief had a much lower farm than Wei Xiao. One full set of skills was enough to kill Wei Xiao, but when it was half a set the berserker thief still had one third of his health left, and he was now in a state of frenzy! They were done for. The two players from GOQ thoroughly wanted to run away. As long as the green hills remain, there will be no need to fear having no firewood. Brothers, hold on! GOQs jungler turned to run, selling out his teammates with no remorse. The giant shaman cursed in the team chat, but his operations were very dutiful and generous as he tried to resist Close and Quiets dual attacks and create an opportunity for his teammate to retreat. Three seconds later, the giant shaman fell to the ground. The wind storm thief ran away quickly and was already far away from the berserker thief, but his heart still held a lingering fear. Im still alive, Laozis really badass, I managed to escape from the hands of two demons holy shit?! Old Cow, dont send yourself off to die ahhhhh! Old Cow was GOQs top-laner. Earlier, hed already been beaten up by Close until he couldnt even be angry. Death knight vs divine warrior. Reasonably speaking, the death knight had an absolute advantage. Regardless of whether it came to clearing soldiers or trading health, the death knight had a talent advantage far superior to that of the divine warrior. The divine warrior was a support type top-laner. It could stack up buffs, give shields, resist damage, and play out a bit of damage. Unfortunately, Close was the one playing the divine warrior. He was a man who could overturn the heavens with his performance using a holy priest, so there was no need to mention the divine warrior. The death knight was pressured until he was about to die, to the point where he didnt even notice where Close was. By the time he found out that there was fighting in his top jungle zone, he rushed over and arrived too late. It had taken Wei Xiao two seconds to kill the ice mage, and it only took him three to four seconds to fight against the giant shaman and wind storm thief. The death knight had rushed over after the second two and had arrived just when the wind storm thief had retreated. This was a fatal mistake that communication couldnt make up for. The time involved was too short, and words were often delayed. The wind storm thief withdrew, but the death knight had sent himself over. The death knight yelled, Damn it, what the hell are you guys running for! Hed come over to provide support; couldnt four people kill two? The wind storm thief: Its over, its over He didnt know if he should go back or not and was really flustered. Closes skills landed accurately on the death knight, interrupting his ability to switch forms. There was no need for anything to be said. Quiet gave up the wind storm thief and locked onto the death knight with his scythe. He pulled him back, went around him, and the death scythe slit his throat! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed GOQ.Niu. FTW.Quiet triple kill! GOQs three children had tried to gank the grandmaster, yet as a result They were triple killed. The fans in the scrolling comments all burst out in excitement, and the rainbow farts they blew out made even the rainbow fart professional Wei Little Xiao feel inferior. Of course, the haters wouldnt shut up because of this. They continued with their sarcasm, Psht, FTW can only abuse weak teams. The haters always made sense when they flamed, and anyone who tried to go up against them would lose. For Wei Xiao to have gotten three kills at the start of the game meant that GOQ was really done for. The berserker thief was a hero that led the rhythm of the game, and Wei Xiao was a real jungler core player. When he started going crazy, the other side collapsed and had no way to turn things around. Within 30 minutes, the game ended amidst the dancing of the berserker thiefs scythe. When the settlement panel came out, the commentator Lili sucked in a breath. This berserker thief accounted for 46% of the DPS! Brother Mouth commented, Quiets DPS has always been good, ranking in the top three of our competition zone. The director provided the data rankings. Number one was TPTs Eurostar, second was RRs Moonlit, and the third was Quiet There were many categories in the data rankings. In general, the players in the DPS data rankings were core DPS positions (marksman or mages). Because of their professions and talents, junglers generally didnt rank as high in the DPS data rankings. There werent that many bug-like existences like Wei Xiao even across the world. Asleep was already a very strong jungler in the China competition zone, but he was ranked seventh in the DPS rankings, which explained a lot. Was it really a good thing that Quiets DPS was so high? The fans screamed shrilly and made themselves dizzy praising Q, but the discerning members of the audience saw a significant hidden danger. TPTs game was next. Fu Li and Eurostar had arrived at the venue early and were watching the game through the live broadcast from behind the scenes. Eurostar tsked when he saw the data rankings. Quiet is really too fierce. Fu Li was wearing a pair of gold glasses, and his eyes couldnt be seen clearly under the reflection from the light. He took a sip of his black coffee and said slowly, Maybe its not that hes fierce. Eurostar blinked his pair of big eyes and looked at him. Hm? Fu Li: Look at Yue Wenle. This was last years number one ADC in our competition zone. There was always a shadow under the light. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle had contributed a lot to FTWs championship last year. Of these two newcomers, one was calm and didnt make mistakes, while the other was explosive and violent. When Close wasnt able to play to the fullest, the two of them had still been able to pull the team together to achieve the intended strategies, which was enough to show how excellent these two players were. However, FTW was on the rise this season, but Yue Wenle, the supernova from last year, had been quiet. Eurostar was very familiar with his captain. His eyes were bright. A chink in the armor? Fu Li didnt say anything. There was no room for moderation under the new competition system. This years TPT was the blade that would tear everything apart! The playoffs were BO5, which meant the first to reach three wins in five games. Winning the first game did boost morale, but it didnt mean that the results were settled. How many games had ended with three consecutive wins after two losses? And how many games had ended with losing three games in a row after winning a single game? The ultimate outcome of a BO5 game was impossible to predict before the match point. The second match started quickly. GOQ hadnt been relying on luck in order to advance into the top 8 this year. For them to be able to struggle and get up again when faced with adversity, it meant that at the very least, their mentality was strong. GOQs mid-laner, jungler, and support had died miserably, but they also adjusted quickly. The BP segment was very stable overall, and they didnt ban the berserker thief just because it had beaten them up in the previous game. Theyd already used the death knight and didnt want to let the great demon king have it, so the death knight and shadow thief both appeared up on the ban positions as they paid these talents their highest respect. The line-ups were confirmed. Wei Xiao had taken the immortal thief in this game. Although GOQ had had the tables turned on them when they tried to gank Wei Xiao in the last game, they hadnt given up in this game and were ready to engage with the immortal thief. They vowed to topple this drifting, immortal man to the ground and smear him into the floor. And then This 10,0000 swords in the sky is too poisonous, why is it so accurate! 98 of the 99 swords all hit why are we called GOQ, lets just call ourselves a pile of wooden posts and be done with it! Even wooden posts arent as able to catch as many sword hits as you guys. These were complaints from the fans in the scrolling comments. The consequences of trying to catch Wei Xiao was that they were beaten up by the husband and husband ah, no, the FTW top-jungler combo. One rout led to disastrous defeat. The immortal thief wasnt the same type of rhythm leading talent as the berserker thief, but once its farm increased, its damage became more explosive than that of the berserker thief. Wei Xiao particularly liked to cut down the c-positions, and GOQs mage and marksman were like youngsters who experienced getting beaten up by society and were doubting life! 2:0! In the first game of the playoffs in the China competition zone, FTW completely crushed their opponent! There was a half-time break before the match point. If FTW won the next game, they would win 3:0 against GOQ and storm into the top four of the country in a domineering manner. If GOQ could steadily win a game, then it was possible for them to catch up from behind. The players took off their headsets and stood up. The camera switched to FTW, and it was unknown what Wei Xiao was saying as he got up, but Lu Feng tilted his head to look at him, and Wei Xiao winked his left eye The live stream room exploded. Holy shit, holy shit, this wink really electrocuted me! How can the great demon king hold up against it? Push down this little lunatic ahhhhh! I dont care; this CP Im shipping is real. That affectionate gaze must mean theyve slept together! Wake up, fellow sister. I used to think that the great demon king and the little wife were real. I dont know why, but I feel that the thin and weak Brother Cai standing to the side looks a little aggrieved. My great demon king and little wife CP, theyve collapsed into a ditch! Calling it a ditch is too much, at most its just a vast green grassland The team chat was no longer recorded after their headsets were taken off, and the cameras wouldnt capture sound. Other than Close who had heard what Wei Xiao had said as the one involved, only Brother Cai heard it as well. Brother Cai was really aggrieved, but it wasnt because the top of his head was green. Rather, it was because he had been stuffed full of dog food after the game. Wei Xiao: Captain, wasnt I damned handsome in that last wave just now? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao blinked. Of course, youre more handsome than I am. Brother Cais expression looked constipated. Chen Feng was waiting in the lounge. When he saw them come back, he praised them formulaically, Guard against conceit, guard against rashness, and work hard to win the next game. The four little ones: Okay! At this time, Xiang Liu pushed the door open and came in. Who is going to go record the trash talk segment? The half-time interval lasted 15 minutes. In order to improve the live broadcast effect, teams from both sides had to select two people to go and record trash talk. It made the live broadcast more exciting and gave the audience more to look forward to. Wei Xiao immediately raised his hand. Ill go! When it came to trash talk and such, Quiet was a specialist. Chen Feng stared at him. Behave. Wei Xiao said innocently, When it comes to trash talk, Im very good at it. Chen Feng rolled his eyes. We already have a 2:0 advantage. You dont need to go out and pull aggro. If they were at a disadvantage, then they could let Little Lunatic Wei out to bite people. But they should save it when they already had a sufficient advantage so as to avoid stirring up the other sides fighting spirit and increasing the risks. Bai Cai and Old Yue go, then. Chen Feng named people directly. Brother Cai didnt care. Alright. He was used to it, anyway. Yue Wenle quietly set down his potato chips. Okay. He didnt talk as much, but his trash talk ability was still sufficient. They left, and Wei Xiao couldnt behave himself anymore. He sat there for a minute before coming up with bad ideas. Captain~ Lu Feng looked at him out of the corner of his eye. Hm? Wei Xiao leaned over and said, Do you want to go to the bathroom? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao turned his back to Little Ning and bit his lower lip. Together? The author has something to say: Little Ning: Brother Xiao is a primary school student and has to hold hands when he goes to the bathroom. Chen Feng: Chapter 184: Quiets handsome and sunny, and he looks like a little puppy when he smiles. Ning Zhehan couldnt see Wei Xiaos face and could only hear his words. Little Ning knew nothing about what was going on with his captain, but was afraid that Wei Xiao might feel embarrassment after being rejected. He hurriedly interjected, I also want to go to the bathroom. Brother Xiao Lu Feng stood up. Little Ning: ! Double Standard Wei came online. Go on your own. Youre not a primary school student, do you still need someone to accompany you when you go to the bathroom? Ning Zhehan: ??? Chen Feng couldnt continue listening on any longer. The lounge door closed, and Ning Zhehan looked over with confusion written all over his face. Chen Feng was afraid that Little Ning would really go as well and end up as a lightbulb, so he kept him back and said, In the game just now Little Ning immediately sat up straight and listened honestly to Coach Chens improvised game review. Wei Xiao stepped out of the lounge, looked around for a while, then hooked his little finger around Lu Fengs fingers. Lu Feng kept walking straight ahead. Wei Xiao was unable to seduce him and trotted a few steps forward to catch up. Are we really going to the bathroom? Lu Feng asked him, Didnt you have to go? Wei Xiao grinned. Captain, you really dont know anything about the local customs. Lu Feng suddenly grasped Wei Xiaos wrist, surprising him for a moment. Eh In the next moment, his vision darkened, and he was pulled into a dark room. The door closed behind him, and his lips were being bitten. Wei Xiaos heart pounded, and he closed his eyes to return the kiss. When the two of them separated, Wei Xiaos voice was soft and powerless, Captain~ It was over, this darkness was so exciting. Lu Feng was very close to him. Hm? Wei Little Xiao was shameless. I want more But Lu Feng didnt kiss him again. After we get 3:0. Wei Xiao was just about to kick up a fuss when he heard footsteps approaching from outside. The hand Lu Feng had around his waist suddenly tightened, and Wei Xiao didnt even dare to squeak. He didnt even dare to breathe too hard. He tried to speak to Lu Feng with his eyes in the darkness: Whats going on? Whats this room for? Lu Feng: Its nothing. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng: Eye contact communication failed. Lu Fengs its nothing became something in Wei Xiaos eyes. It was over, it was over, they were going to be discovered, and this shocking news would really blow up the hot search. There was no way for Lu Feng to speak, so he remained equally motionless. The footsteps outside stopped, and Wei Xiaos eyes widened even further. It was rare to see Wei Little Xiao scared of something; Lu Feng found it quite interesting. Sigh, Close is really too damned handsome when you look at him from close up. It was a refreshing female voice. After that came the voice of another girl, Honestly, do you think Close has a girlfriend? No way! I cant imagine how he would look when he spoils someone else! The great demon king is a little out of reach, but Quiets great too. Thats true. Quiets handsome and sunny, and he looks like a little puppy when he smiles. When hes fierce, he looks like a little wolf dog Did you notice? He has a very nice mouth, with lips that are lifted like a natural smile. It looks a lot more natural than make-up. His lips are good looking, too. They look so tender. If I didnt already know that he has no make-up on, I would want to know what color hes using. Why ask for lip color? Ask for a kiss instead. Youre such an evil auntie! Im only three years older than him. Is marrying an older woman like holding a gold brick? Aiya, I can dream As the girls laughed, their footsteps finally faded away. Inside the dark room, the two people involved looked at each other. Wei Xiao blinked and asked, Is my mouth very good looking? Wu What he got in response was a kiss that left him breathless. Was it good looking? It wasnt just good looking. The half-time break was soon over. After Brother Cai and Yue Wenle came back from recording their trash talk, Wei Xiao asked them about what they said. Bai Cai: Theres no need to boast about having a big advantage, we just have to stand firm and stay steady and be done with it. Yue Wenle: 3:0. What kind of trash talk did he have to say? Hed just drop ruthless words! Wei Xiao was amused. Badass, Old Yue. Yue Wenle crunched his potato chips. It was alright. Wei Xiao laughed and got up. Lets go. For God Les sake, well beat GOQ 3:0. When they entered the stage again, the lights fell on FTWs black uniforms and coated them with a thin layer of gold. Dazzling and intense, like the ray of sunshine that brought on the dawn. They recalibrated their peripherals again, and after the referees checked their equipment, both sides entered the BP link. GOQs half-time break was very different from FTWs. This was their match point. Theyd be eliminated directly if they lost, and no matter how steady their hearts were, they were still unable to smile at this time. The coach gave them a serious talking to, You keep insisting on acting tough, but can you tough it out against Close or Quiet? GOQs mid-laner, jungler, and support were all in tears. The coach spoke fiercely, but he wasnt really angry: Firstly, it was already beyond everyones expectations for GOQ to reach their present position. Secondly, FTW was tough, and GOQ might not be able to win this game even if they won the lottery. One great demon king was already more than they dared to offend, and adding on a little lunaticCCwhat could good people like them use to fight with?! GOWs bottom lane had a thought. Calm down, you three. The top-lane and jungler are difficult targets, but if you cant beat them, cant you avoid them? GOQs top-laner Old Cow also spoke up, I think so, too. In any case, I wont be able to suppress Close no matter how you guys support me. And Quiet is particularly fond of supporting the top lane. Its not just the top lane. The whole top jungle zone is like their backyard. Comparatively speaking, the bottom jungle zone is relatively quiet. How about this The few of them got together and discussed it for a long time. They really saw a potential ray of life. Give it a try? Try it! Its the match point anyway, well go all out and be done with it! Yeah, were not scared to lose, and if we win, then Laozis going to party tonight! Winning the game was too difficult, but taking down a small match would be enough for them to boast about for half a year! GOQs coach was very happy as he watched these five people. Although, in his opinion, this trick of theirs was a bad idea, he didnt stop it. To have the spirit and enthusiasm to not be discouraged when encountering a strong enemy, to think of a way when faced with a difficult problem, this was the most important thing! In the China competition zone that had been in a slump for three years, many people had started seeing sparks of light in the dark. The BP was quick and decisive. The shadow thief couldnt be released, and it wouldnt be released in this lifetime. Quiets nine light arcs might be unstable, but the great demon kings light arcs were very stable. What if Close took the shadow thief and went to the top lane? How would they live then?! Wei Xiao took the wind storm thief in this game. Hed used three different thief talents over three games, and Quiet used his own strength to tell everyoneCCFTWs jungler hadnt only inherited the nine light arcs; it had also inherited a talent kaleidoscope! You wanted to target him? Even 12 ban positions werent enough! After entering the game, Wei Xiao started with the red jungle zone as usual. Oh, it was naturally the opposite sides red jungle zone. GOWs jungler snuck a look over and obediently shrank back. Wei Xiao issued a command, Old Bai, pay attention to the bottom jungle zone. Since GOQ was avoiding a fight, they must be planning to steal his lower jungle. Bai Cai: Got it. Wei Xiao cleared the jungle zone extremely quickly. His skills went out like floating clouds and flowing water, and the damage he dealt was maximized to the point that those with obsessive-compulsive disorder spammed the scrolling comments screen like crazy, Cool! The smoothness of a top level jungler is really comfortable to watch. Ive saved this clip. It can be played in a loop and used as a video to decompress. Is the wind storm thief skin so handsome? I want to buy it. Whether or not the skin is handsome depends on who is using it. The audience was staring at Wei Xiao because the director was keeping the camera on him. The commentators saw the bigger picture. The situation in the bottom lane seems a little wrong. Is GOQ planning to ambush Yue Wenle? Brother Cai is in the bottom jungle providing vision, and GOQs jungler and support cleverly bypassed him. If the power thiefs ground stab catches Yue Wenle, itll be difficult for him to get away as a gold hunter! In FTWs team chat, Wei Xiao suddenly spoke up, Old Yue, be careful! The power thief and the holy priests figures had already appeared on the screen. And Yue Wenles position was a bit closer to the front as hed been suppressing the other sides ADC. The author has something to say: Wei Xiao: Dont panic. Chapter 185: Brother Xiao, isnt having the captain already enough? As soon as their opponents exposed themselves, the two sides positions could clearly be seen on the map. GOQs jungler and support were surrounding them from the bottom, and GOQs marksman no longer hid behind the tower and eagerly tried to hold back Yue Wenle. Looking at Yue Wenles position, he looked like dumpling filling that was waiting to be wrapped up and surrounded. Wei Xiao was currently killing the wolf creep. Old Bai, teleport. Then, he hit the teleport button himself. If GOQ wanted to fight, then theyd fight. Unexpectedly, Yue Wenle actually stopped them. No need. Wei Xiaos teleport was still casting. Yue Wenle: Dont break your rhythm. Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment. He moved his fingers and stopped the teleport, smiling as he said, Badass, Old Yue. Yue Wenle stared at the screen, his voice languid, Its alright. The conversation between the two of them made Ning Zhehan twitch his ears. This sounds familiar. Bai Cai rolled his eyes. Middle-schoolers are easily amused. Yue Wenle didnt let Wei Xiao teleport because Wei Xiao was in the top lane and had only finished snatching up half of his resources. The best result that could be achieved from him coming down at this time would be him killing one of GOQs players, but it would be very difficult to keep Yue Wenle alive. FTW and GOQ would trade one kill for another, but FTWs jungle clearing rhythm would be thrown off, resulting in greater losses. Yue Wenles positioning was reckless, but this judgement wasnt reckless at all. The fans understanding was a bit shallower, and their hearts had already started to beat fiercely. Are they going to sell Lele out? Although Leles positioning is a bit reckless, its completely possible for them to fight if they teleported over. If they sell him, then they sell him. As long as Quiet can develop, GOQ is still done for. God Les the marksman, though. Is it okay for FTW to abuse their ADC like this What the haters said didnt need to be mentioned. In any case, it was all repetitive speculation about FTWs failures. If it didnt make the players themselves break down, it was still enough to mess with the mentality of the fans, and in any case, it did nobody any good to see it. On the commentator stand, Brother Mouth and Lili were also analyzing the battle situation. The gold hunter is a talent that relies heavily on farm. Dying once at the start of the game will have a big impact. But if Quiet chooses to go support him in this wave, the upper jungle zone will be lost and it wasnt easy to dominate. Instead, theyll fall into GOQs feint and attack trap. Team GOQ is amazing; theyve found a way to calm down after losing two games. Theyre really worthy of being a team that has rushed their way into the top eight. Brother Mouth, did my eyes blur for a moment? Did Quiet press the teleport button, then cancel it? It seems that they discussed it on team chat. The situation changed, Yue Wenle didnt retreat. Instead, he approached the enemys defense tower! The director fixed the camera to show the canyons bottom lane. Another shot locked in on Yue Wenles face. Yue Wenle was born pale, the type of paleness that seemed bloodless, and his features were very tender. He was clearly already 18, but he looked like a middle schooler. Adding on the way his chips never left his hands, when the club went out for events and he stood next to Brother Tang, the staff would actually think that they were father and son. Last year, hed attracted countless fans when he joined FTW. This silent number one ADC in the country hadnt shown up out of thin air. The gold hunter was a marksman talent with limited movement ability. It didnt have any movement skills, and its biggest advantage was that it had many control skillsCCstrong control and soft control. The so-called soft control was similar to a slow effect and couldnt completely lock people down. If the gold hunter was used well, then almost all of the damage it dealt would bring about a deceleration effect. Yue Wenle was very good at this tactic. Seeing that GOQs jungler and support were coming up behind him and that the power thiefs earth stab was already on its way, Yue Wenle flashed back. He was able to dodge the ground stab, but was unable to avoid the holy priests bubble tune. But he didnt retreat at all. He ignored the two players behind him and rushed straight towards the other sides defense tower. GOQs marksman, who had come out from beneath the tower in order to cooperate with his teammates, was dazed for a moment. Holy shit, whats he doing! GOQs jungler and supports eyes also grew wide. We heard before that God Le was reckless, but is he really this reckless?! Yue Wenle withstood the damage from the defense tower as arrows flew towards GOQs marksman, one after another. GOQs marksmans health had already been pushed down by a third, and at this time, he couldnt hold up against the gold hunters intense assault. GOQs junger reacted. F*ck! Old Hua, hurry and hit him with a basic attack! But it was too late. By the time GOQs marksman responded, his health had already reached the bottom along with Yue Wenles. GOQs jungler used a movement skill to rush over, but was only able to hit Yue Wenles body. System AnnouncementCC First Blood! FTW.Le killed GOQ.Hua. FTW.Le was killed by the tower. There were exclamations across the whole scene! This wave of operations was too wonderful! Old Yue, whod been surrounded like dumpling filling, had advanced instead of retreating and had recklessly obtained the greatest benefits he could in a situation where his death was certain! He couldnt run in any case, and it would be pointless even if he used flash. Since his death was certain, Wei Xiao and Bai Cai wouldnt be able to save him even if they came. If they really did come and didnt play well, they may have ended up sending themselves to death one after another instead. Instead of messing up the junglers rhythm and impacting the teams development, it was better to take First Blood. In fact, there was a bit of luck involved in Yue Wenle sending his kill to the tower. He hadnt expected GOQs marksman to cower so much that he didnt even dare to click on him once. When towers attacked players, as long as the opponent even touched the player a little bit, the kill would be attributed to the player. Unfortunately, GOQs marksman had too little health, and his reaction had been too slow. Hed been caught by surprise by Yue Wenles attack, and hed already fallen by the time he thought to click and attack. Wei Xiao whistled in the voice chat. Yue Wenles expression was calm. Routine operations. Wei Xiao was amused. Captain, was Old Yue our teams king of boasting before I came along? Brother Cai and Little Ning both thought that their cold-faced great demon king wouldnt reply. Unexpectedly Lu Feng: Yes. Yue Wenle: Bai Cai and Little Ning laughed themselves silly. GOQ had utterly failed with their attempt and were reflecting on it like crazy in their team chat. Hes not so-so. Nonsense! After all, he was last years supernova Ahhhh, its all because the grandmaster is too eye-catching and blinded me so I thought that God Le was soft and easy to bully. I just f*cking remembered, last year when FTW met 3U in the semi-finals, it was Asleep and Yue Wenle who dazzled the whole scene, okay? I was too presumptuous! Not only did they remember that, even the fans remembered it. In last years FTW, the great demon king was still in the jungler position, Brother Tang was in the top lane, and they had a so-so stand-in player in the mid-lane. Yue Wenle back then had been the most brilliant player. Asleep and Congyis jungler and support combo was known as the crazy dogs of the canyon. Although Bai Cai was a zen youth, he was unable to hold up against Yue Wenles recklessness, and the two of them created a unique chemical reaction when they played together. Last year, Asleep had torn through all the c-positions in the canyon, but Yue Wenle was a hard bone to crack. In the semi-finals, the five games they played were filled with thrilling excitement, and it was Yue Wenles frost hunter whod determined the winner! That precise arrow made of dark ice locked in on Asleep every time. It caused up to two seconds of control, and all Cong Yi could do was sacrifice himself for love! GOQs Coach Sun watched calmly from beneath the stage. The idea that the team had come up with in the lounge was to avoid Wei Xiao and target Yue Wenle. Although theyd taken a very zen mentality with them when playing in the playoffs, who didnt have a small desire for victory burning in their hearts? Even if it was a huge mountain, they still wanted to climb over it. Even if it was a sea, they wanted to conquer it. Wasnt that what e-sports was all about? Taking down an impossible victory was what real competition was! Coach Sun knew very clearly that Yue Wenle wasnt an easy target, but he didnt pour cold water over their heads. Go ahead. It wasnt a big deal to lose. Playing a good game was the best nutrition on the path to growth! Backstage, in the TPT lounge. Eurostar clicked his tongue. Old Yue is still vigorous. Fu Li asked him, If it was you just now Eurostar: How would I let myself get into that position? Yue Wenle was reckless, while he was careful. As a little cowardly baby, he had the advantage of being more sensitive and alert, and wouldnt have been surrounded like dumpling filling. Fu Li: What Im saying is, what if you were GOQs marksman. Eurostar got it. His eyes brightened. First Blood would be mine. Im not Old Yues. The implication was that he could easily kill Yue Wenle, and Yue Wenle shouldnt even think of killing him. This was the gap between players. GOQ didnt give up. Although their first round of sneak attacks failed, they were very clear on their intentions for this game and insisted on going up against Yue Wenle. As long as Wei Xiao showed himself, they would swiftly pounce over to the other side. GOQs support was like a chicken thief, and first built up an acceleration buff so that he could take the mid-laner and jungler with him, moving around swiftly like a gust of wind. In fact, it would be very easy to mess with them. Wei Xiao only needed to stalk them on the bottom lane, since they didnt dare to go mess with Close no matter what. If he stayed in the bottom jungler zone, hed be able to catch the three little guys every time. But Wei Xiao didnt stand guard over the bottom lane. He didnt say anything, and Lu Feng didnt speak up, but Chen Feng, who was off-stage, saw things very clearly. They were indeed giving Yue Wenle this opportunity. Yue Wenle was a very good marksman, but hed previously been overshadowed by the two suns in the team. Once he was given space to shine, he could hold up half the sky. A teams ADC was crucial. They might be able to rely on Wei Xiao and Closes strong operations to steamroll over immature teams like GOQ, but once they met a strong team, it would really rely on the integrity of the whole team. Not only did the top-lane and jungler need to be iron buckets, their mid-laner and ADC also needed to be indestructible. Under GOQs frenzied attacks, Yue Wenle was still able to become a gold daddy in the later half of the game. In the last wave of group fights, Ning Zhehan dealt ranged attacks from afar while Yue Wenles DPS exploded C just three arrows from him left his opponents at critical health. By the time GOQ wanted to escape, there were two demon kings waiting behind them. Their top-jungler combo harvested the kills, and GOQ was wiped out! Victory! FTW won the game 3:0 and charged into the top four! FTW won beautifully in the first game of the playoffs. When the two sides shook hands after the end of the game, GOQs players all had red rimmed eyes. Wei Xiao smiled broadly and hugged them. Youve worked hard. It was okay when he didnt say it, but once he did, the mid-laner, jungler, and support from GOQ all burst out crying. Next season, well Wei Xiao spoke in a gentle voice, his tone like he was coaxing them, Well, well still beat you up until you cry next season. The three children from GOQ: .. They cried even louder! Bai Cai jabbed this big villain with his elbow. Enough, stop toying with them. Wei Xiao was startled and snuck a glance at the captain. At this time, the host had just come over with the microphone. She heard the end of their conversation and joked, Toying? Who is Quiet toying with? You really know how to pick up the thread of the conversation. Wei Xiao didnt want his boyfriend to be jealous at all, and he was just about to clarify everything in front of the whole country. But Brother Cai was worthy of being the commander of FTWs dog head division, and his ability to adapt to the situation was absolute. Toying with me. The host was amused. How so? Brother Cai expressionlessly stirred up his own popularity. He disdained me for only following God Le in the last game and got jealous. The whole scene burst out into laughter. Wei Xiao: Unexpectedly, Yue Wenle added a sentence in a dark tone, Brother Xiao, isnt having the captain already enough? The microphone arrived in Lu Fengs hand, and the great demon kings voice was clear and cold, It seems that its not enough. Wei Xiao: The fans in the live broadcast were going crazy with laughter. Little Lunatic Q, youre really capable. You actually led my FTW male god group astray and turned them into a crosstalk group ahahahahaha! Chapter 186: Wei Little Xiaos superpower. There was another game after theirs, so the FTW team didnt leave. Xiang Liu had made the arrangements beforehand and gotten them seats beneath the stage to watch the game from. Fans screamed as the TPT players came up onto the stage. In particular, the Li-Star sisters acted like it was the new year as they shouted again and again, Li-Star is real! Beneath the stage, Wei Xiao was sour and jealous. Captain, do people yell like that when we go up on stage? Lu Feng: It was too noisy backstage, and Wei Xiao couldnt hear him clearly. He leaned in closer. Hm? Lu Feng said quietly, Were not a CP. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng looked towards the stage. Wei Xiaos heart was so sweet that he had to share it with someone. So, he went to bring disaster to Brother Cai. Thats right, me and the captain arent a CP. Brother Cai hadnt heard the earlier conversation between the two and his expression was confused: ??? Wei Xiao explained to him seriously, Look at how loudly the Li-Star CP is shouting, but whats the use? Fu Li and Eurostar are as straight as steel and way too fake. Brother Cai: You can shut up now. Wei Xiao heard him, but he acted as though he hadnt as he continued, True love doesnt need to be shouted out loud. Just like me and the captain, we have to keep it hidden Brother Cai: Little Ning. Brother Cai called out to Granny Gray. Ning Zhehans expression was innocent. Whats up, Brother Cai? Bai Cai: Lets change seats. Ning Zhehan: ??? Bai Cai: Your Brother Xiao will explain God Lis mid-laner play style to you. Little Ning was easily fooled. Okay! They quickly changed seats, and he looked earnestly at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was stared at by his big, innocent eyes: He now had nothing to talk about! TPT was a very unique team. During last years domestic competition, TPT hadnt been as outstanding as RR and 3U, but they were a team that nobody could look down on. Especially when it came to their captain, Fu Li. A professional player who was even more professional than their coach was a very terrible presence in the canyon. Some people said that he was a bit like Yan Jiang, but anyone who was familiar with them knew that they were quite different. Yan Jiang was more self-absorbed and wouldnt cultivate other players. He would use his own talent to support the right people and create the world championship team Y1. Fu Li seemed a little softer. He wasnt as talented as Yan Jiang, but he would use his hard work and efforts to train up suitable teammates and slowly polish up the current TPT. Y1 had a soul, and that soul was Yan Jiang. TPT also had a soul, but its soul was Fu Lis precise calculations. Chen Feng sat to Lu Fengs left. He said quietly, TPT is very strong this year. Lu Feng answered, Mm. The fans had quieted down a lot as the game was about to start. Wei Xiao heard them and stretched his head over. Stronger than RR and 3U? Lu Feng explained to him, Their growth was more significant in comparison. Wei Xiao thought about it and understood. Especially during this season? TPTs growth was very fast? Lu Feng: Yes. This was understandable. Ordinary players only looked at the results from the current game, but the players in the circle had a better sense for it. If last years 3U and RR were at 70 points, then theyd grown to 80 points this year. TPT was only at 60 points last year, but theyd also risen up to 80 points this year and were still growing, while 3U and RR had encountered many bottlenecks. Wei Xiao focused on the competition and whispered, Who will we meet in the semi-finals? FTW had taken the lead to enter the top four and would be facing the semi-finals next. The semi-finals were based on a draw system. The four teams would be split into two groups that attempted to enter the finals. If nothing unexpected happened, then the top four teams should be FTW, TPT, 3U, and RR. Who would FTW meet in the four into two game? Who would FTW meet in the finals? Chen Feng said quietly, It would be best not to encounter 3U in the semi-finals. Wei Xiao heard him, but he didnt answer because Little Ning was sitting beside him, followed by Brother Cai and Yue Wenle. Chen Feng didnt elaborate on the topic, either. He stopped talking after stating his point. But those who understood in their hearts were very clear about what he meant. What stage TPT would reach in their growth was still up in the air, but 3Us strength could be seen from the surface. Reasonably speaking, 3Us core was their jungler, and FTW was also set up the same way. When it came to jungler core against jungler core, Wei Xiao wouldnt lose. But, in fact, team competitions werent the same as singles or doubles. Wei Xiao could beat Asleep, but he might not necessarily have a chance to fight Asleep. Asleep and Cong Yis cooperation was remarkable even among the whole Glory scene. If the two of them focused on ganking Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan, then these two would find it difficult to develop. If they couldnt protect their own c-positions, then Wei Xiao and Lu Feng would find it hard to sustain their play. Tonight, Yue Wenle had shown a wave of heavenly operations, playing with the GOQ team until they were turning around in circles, but if they encountered 3U Even without mentioning whether or not 3Us ADC would give Yue Wenle the opportunity to suppress him, just Asleeps ganking was sneaky enough that there wouldnt be any sense of his presence ahead of time. A cheetahs terrifying patience and super explosive damage would put great psychological pressure on squishy players. Under this pressure, a players mental quality was tested even more. Of course, Wei Xiao could also go and catch 3Us c-position and give as good as they got. So, that led to the question 3Us mid-laner and marksmen had different characteristics compared with FTWs. They would rather give up resources to preserve their lives, avoiding the sharp blade of attack like a loose pile of cotton. FTW and 3U had played a lot of training matches together. The more familiar they were with each other, the more they got to know each others strengths and weaknesses. If possible, Chen Feng didnt want FTW to meet 3U in the semi-finals. FTW still needed time to grow, and any scrap of time was precious. The game on the stage started. TPT was up against a team called YLY, which was an old veteran team. YLY had won the domestic runner-up five years ago, but their path had grown bumpy after that, and they kept hovering around the gateway to the playoffs. They were able to get into the top eight in the country, but it was always a short round trip. YLYs abbreviation had been interpreted by other people as an acronym for round trip in Chinese pinyin. It was distressing. TPTs style had always been stable. They started steadily and made no errors in their group fights. As long as they could enter the late stage, theyd be invincible. A well-developed Eurostar would become the brightest cub in the canyon. Regardless of what marksman talent he used, as soon as one arrow went out, even a giant shaman would lose a quarter of its health. In the first game, TPT won without suspense, and it was even a little boring. Wei Xiao tsked, then leaned close to Lu Feng. Fu Li is really boring. Holding back their strength when facing a weak team meant that they won without any surprises. Wei Xiao continued, Right?! If theyre playing in a competition, then they should play well and do their best. Why look down on the opponent? Lu Feng suddenly looked at him and asked, Do you want him to look down on you? Wei Xiao was stunned, then got it. His eyes curved like a fox. Captain, youre really evil. Chen Feng, who was beside them, Can you two pay more attention! TPT won against YLY with an advantage that was just sufficient. YLYs mentality had obviously collapsed a little. Their tone was very aggressive during the trash talk segment, and they were almost unable to maintain basic etiquette. TPT never contributed trash talk and would only say a few official sounding words, but what was revealed with their politeness was their real arrogance. YLY was in even worse condition for their third game, and it could be seen that theyd struggled to suppress TPT in the early stages so that they wouldnt have a chance to play in the later stage. Unfortunately, TPT cooperated perfectly, playing a little more fiercely when their opponent played more fiercely, and if their opponents were more aggressive at the start, then they would also follow suit and accompany them to the end. Finally Fu Li used the trickster warlock to take down a quadrakill and ending the game. The entire audience gave them warm applause. Fans screamed Fu Lis name and cheered for him like crazy. The screen was fixed on the final scene. The trickster warlock was dressed in clothing as dark as night, his body slender and cold, with dozens of blood-colored flames floating around him. These were the passive skills that had stacked up after killing an enemy and represented blood and death! This game was uninteresting. Wei Xiao sighed. The trickster warlock couldve gotten a pentakill. In the last round of the group fights, as long as Fu Li had been a little more careful, he couldve taken down the first pentakill in the playoffs. But hed let it go. YLYs junglers kill was given to Eurostar, and his streak leading up to the pentakill was broken. To be honest, if Fu Li had taken the pentakill in this round, YLY wouldnt have thought much of it. But hed let this pentakill go instead, which was really enough to anger them to death. Poor YLY lost in a mess, and they could only bear with it despite being so angry theyd blown up like pufferfish. The post-competition interview wasnt very meaningful. FTW took advantage of the time when the crowds hadnt yet gotten too big to step out of the venue first. On the way back to the base, Chen Feng held a small meeting. His intention was to warn them to be on guard against arrogance and impetuousness, since the real battle had only just begun. Wei Xiaos eyes unfocused as he listened, and towards the end, he fell asleep because Lu Fengs shoulder was too comfortable. It was almost 11 oclock by the time they returned to the base. Chen Feng waved his hand to let everyone rest early, indicating that theyd go over the game replay tomorrow. Wei Xiao yawned as he left the training room. Lu Feng asked him, Tired? Wei Xiaos tired state disappeared, and there wasnt even the slightest bit of sleepiness in his eyes. Captain, go and sleep first. Im going to stay up all night tonight. Lu Feng: ? Wei Xiao pushed him upstairs, then went up on tiptoes to kiss him. Dont worry. Ill find a chance to catch up on sleep tomorrow. Lu Feng held his wrist and asked, What are you staying up all night for? Wei Xiao didnt hide it from him. Watching todays game. Lu Fengs eyebrows twisted together slightly. Well go over the replay together tomorrow. Wei Xiao couldnt quite explain it himself. I have to see it myself Lu Feng: See what? Wei Xiao felt a little embarrassed. Um, how should I say it? I have a superpower. Lu Feng: Although Wei Xiao was usually shameless and even acted like he was still in middle school, he still felt like he was about to explode from embarrassment at this time. His cheeks grew a little red. Really Lu Fengs interest was piqued, What kind of superpower? Wei Xiao grew even more red after Lu Feng asked that. Lu Feng looked around, saw that no one was there, and kissed him gently. Tell me about it. His voice seemed to carry electricity that made Wei Xiaos heart feel itchy. Dont seduce me, Im very busy tonight. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao was afraid hed do something and said, Im going to watch Old Yue. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao really couldnt explain it. I just have to watch Old Yues game and thoroughly understand him. Lu Feng was stunned for a moment. Wei Xiao continued, Really! Its been like this from the training camp. I just have to watch the match with me and my teammates, and Ill be able to cooperate with them perfectly! Lu Fengs heart felt like it had been hit. Little Xiao Wei Xiao urged him again, In any case, hurry up and go sleep. See you tomorrow morning. The words Lu Feng wanted to say stopped at his lips, and he ultimately didnt say them out loud. That night, Wei Xiao didnt sleep, and Lu Feng basically didnt sleep, either. At 1AM, Lu Feng went downstairs and looked through the window of the training room. He saw the big boy sitting in the e-sports chair and staring at the screen without blinking. At 2M, Lu Feng went downstairs again. Wei Xiao was still in the same position, like a beautiful statue that had been placed there. 3AM 4AM 5AM For a full six hours. Wei Xiao always maintained a high level of concentration, constantly watching himself and Yue Wenle play in the competition together. Lu Feng leaned against the door and dropped his gaze, hiding away the feelings rising up within himCC How did Wei Xiao have any sort of superpower? What he had was just countless times the sweat and round the clock effort. Chapter 187: Some people were like the vast and lonely sky. At seven oclock, Wei Xiao turned off the computer screen. Instead of going out, he lifted up the curtains to look out at the garden. After a while, he still didnt see Lu Feng on his morning run. Then, the door to the training room opened. Wei Xiao turned his head and smiled wide when he saw whod come in. Youre awake? As he spoke, he headed over to Lu Feng and threw himself into his arms. Lu Feng was filled with heartache seeing his pale lips. He kissed the tips of his hair. Eat something before you go to sleep. Wei Xiao kissed him on the mouth. How about The corners of Lu Fengs eyes pulled down. Eat. Wei Xiao was just making empty talk. After staying up all night, his entire person felt like it was floating. Have you eaten? Lu Feng: No. Wei Xiao held his hand. Together, then! The two of them went to the dining room, where the auntie had already made breakfast. Wei Xiao blinked and understood that Lu Feng must have told her to do so in advance. His heart warmed. Im really a bit hungry. Eat slowly, theres no rush. Mm-hmm. Wei Xiao drank some of the exquisite and silky pork bone congee and said to Lu Feng, I had a pretty good harvest from staying up all night! Lu Fengs heart felt a little pained. Eat first. Of course hed have gained something after staying up all night. But Wei Xiao couldnt wait to share it. Really! I can assure you, even if we meet 3U in the semi-finals, Old Yue wont have to back down wu Lu Feng fed him a mouthful of congee. Wei Xiao felt as sweet as honey as he ate it. He wanted to continue, Old Yue Lu Feng fed him another bite. Wei Xiao could only eat first. Um Lu Feng brought up another spoonful. Wei Xiao: Wei Xiao, whod eaten half a bowl of congee, finally figured it out. Captain, arent you concerned about Old Yue?! Lu Fengs voice was calm. I care more about you. Wei Xiao blinked. How could his heart still focus on someone named Yue? We should talk to the auntie, why did she put sugar in the pork bone congee? It was too sweet. So sweet that he didnt know what he was eating. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao used his own spoon to feed Lu Feng. Its sweet. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: Isnt it sweet? Lu Feng inhaled lightly. Its sweet. Wei Xiao grew energetic. Have another mouthful. The two of them fed each other back and forth and finished half a pot of congee in no time. Fortunately, there was no one else in the dining area. Otherwise, if there was a third party, even if it was Brother Soybean, they would be stuffed full until they were whining. After eating, Wei Xiao thought of Comrade Old Yue once again. As soon as he opened his mouth, Lu Feng spoke again, Talk after going back to the room. Wei Xiao was very anxious. Lets talk about it right here! Lu Feng said quietly, I ran the hot water. You can take a bath. Wei Xiao: Lu Feng added, If we go back to the room, you can sleep after you finish talking. Wei Xiao: Since it was already like this, how could Wei Little Xiao resist? The old saying was right, even heroes fall for beauties! Lu Feng glanced at him, Hm? Wei Xiao hurriedly changed his words. Even beauties fall for heroes! Lu Feng looked at him, his voice low and magnetic, Beauty? Wei Xiao felt like hed been shocked by electricity. Its even heroes fall for heroes! Lu Feng chuckled quietly. Wei Xiao couldnt stand it anymore. Captain, dont tease me, I wont be able to hold back and will Lu Feng couldnt let him finish. Enough, go take a bath. The temperature of the water was just right, and there was a light, soothing scent of incense. Wei Xiao almost fell asleep as soon as he relaxed. Ah The captain his boyfriend was really nice. Wei Xiao had stayed up for countless nights in his life. When he was studying, hed tried his best to help his grandma while still getting number one in the class. Staying up late had been normal. Later on, in the youth training camp, hed also fit two days worth of work into each day and tried his best to get good results. Hed stayed up for so many nights, but hed never enjoyed such treatment. A delicious breakfast, comfortable hot bath, and even having someone coax him to sleep. Wei Xiao sank into the water, leaving only his nose and eyes above the water line. His heart was as delighted as could be. Wei Xiaos hair was dripping wet when he came out of the bathroom. Lu Feng beckoned to him. Come here. Wei Xiao: I have to first talk about Old Yue otherwise Ill really fall asleep. Lu Feng: Its fine if you fall asleep. Yue Wenle cant run off. Wei Xiao: This made sense, butCC No, no, no, I have to share my whole nights harvest with you first. These words poked at Lu Fengs heart. Although he was distressed for Wei Xiao and wanted him to rest first, he also felt heartache for the way hed stayed up all night. Tell me. Lu Feng pulled him down to lay down on his thigh and used the towel to gently rub his hair dry. Blow drying his hair would make it too loud to talk, but he could multitask and save time by helping him towel dry his hair. After he was finished talking, theyd only need to blow dry it a little before he went to sleep. Wei Xiao found a comfortable position to lay down and finally began talking, Old Yues biggest problem is that hes more reckless than any of the other marksmen. Lu Feng: Thats right. Wei Xiao thought back to last nights game replay review and said, At first, I thought about how to change this fault of his. Its really easy for a reckless ADC to mess up There were five positions in Glory, and each of them had their own characteristics. It wasnt that the marksman had to shrink back like a turtle, but it was definitely contrary for them to be so reckless. Good positioning, self-preservation, and an ability to deal massive DPS through the cracks were the characteristics of an excellent ADC. The top ADC in the world were both fierce and cautious, seeking excellence amidst stability. Yue Wenle was different. His recklessness was like that of a warrior who rushed up to fight and put himself in danger. He could definitely deal damage, but once he was caught by someone else, he couldnt help attacking in a way that caused damage to both sides. The fault tolerance for this was too low. His damage was explosive while he was alive, but he was really done for when he died. The key was that his positioning habits made it too easy for him to die. Wei Xiao thought about it all night and finally came up with an idea that was the opposite from his original starting point. Rather than have him change, why not let him be reckless all the way to the end. Lu Fengs hand paused while drying his hair. Wei Xiao rested his chin against his thigh, poking against it as he spoke. It looked kind of cute from above. Changing a persons character is difficult, or rather, it should be said that it cant be changed at all. Yue Wenles play style represents his nature. Since he likes to let things go to his head, likes being reckless, and likes fighting against others straight on, then why not take that to an extreme level? Changing it would be too difficult, just like how Eurostar-star cant be fierce. Its too difficult to make Yue Wenle act more cautiously. No one way is right or wrong, and the important thing is to do what theyre best at. Eurostar-star is cautious to the extreme, yet he can still play out explosive DPS. Old Yue can also be reckless to the extreme and beat up the other side while theyre caught unprepared. It took a while before Lu Feng continued to help him dry his hair. Wei Xiao went on, Instead of suppressing Yue Wenle and forcing him to change, its better to let him operate freely and have his teammates make up for any flaws that are left! His hair was mostly dry. He turned around and looked up at Lu Feng. I can help him make up for it! Lu Feng looked into his eyes. Wei Xiao grew excited as he spoke. He sat up and said, Captain, you too. His head was covered with a white towel, his pale skin was a little pink from the hot bath, and his eyes were bright. You also just need to be yourself! Lu Feng was stunned for a moment. Wei Xiao revealed a pair of tiger teeth as he smiled. Let yourself go when you fight, and play however you like. Dont think too much about it! Lu Feng: Wei Xiao held his hand and said, Really. The team competition isnt a constraint. The team competition should be freedom for all five people, because when everyone accommodates each other too much, it makes it more difficult to figure out what everyone really wants to do. You guys only need to be yourself, and leave the rest to me. These words were spoken easily, but there was only one Yan Jiang in the whole world who could do such a thing. Now Lu Feng smiled briefly and asked him, What about you? Dont you also want to be yourself? There was no haze in Wei Xiaos eyes. I am being myself! Everyone was different. Everyone did their own thing differently. Some people were like Lu Feng, and there were also people like Wei Xiao. Some people were like the vast and lonely sky, while others were the sun that lit up the whole world. Fortunately, theyd met each other. Wei Xiao fell asleep once his hair was dry. Lu Feng carried him carefully to the bed. Hed originally planned to go downstairs and deal with some work, but because Wei Xiao was sleeping so soundly, he couldnt help but accompany him to sleep for a while. By the time he went downstairs again, everyone was already waking up one after another. Chen Feng yawned. Wheres the little lunatic? Lu Feng: Still sleeping. Chen Feng was slightly surprised. Lu Feng added, Dont call for him in the afternoon. Let him sleep a bit longer. Chen Feng was shocked. This Hold back a little, you two, and do less late night exercise! Were almost at the semi-finals! Lu Feng explained, He stayed up all night to watch Yue Wenles game. Chen Fengs gaze grew sharp. What? Lu Feng told him about Wei Xiaos harvest from the night. At first, Chen Feng didnt take it seriously, but his frown grew deeper the more he listened. At last, he sighed, Little Lunatic Weis pretty good, hey. If he can really patch up Yue Wenles flaws, then this bottom-jungler combination will be amazing. Lu Feng said firmly, He can do it. Chen Feng raised his eyebrows. Thatll be something to see in the semi-finals. Lu Feng was in a good mood and asked Chen Feng, Do you know what kind of person is the most terrifying? Chen Fengs thoughts were still immersed in proper business. He replied casually, What? Lu Feng: Those who are both talented and diligent. Chen Feng had a premonition something was maybe not right. Lu Feng continued, And their strength is higher than that of others. Coach Chen could confidently get rid of the maybe. Things were not good! Lu Feng: As a player, they can even do the work of a coach. Chen Feng: Hed gotten shot by an arrow to the knee. Lu Feng obviously wasnt finished. He saw a problem that even the coach didnt see. Chen Feng: Alright, alright, alright, he knew that Little Lunatic Wei was amazing! The great demon king gradually went crazy,.The most important thing is, hes so excellent, yet hes still so dedicated. Coach Chen Feng: Was there still enough time to run away now!? It was too late. The dog food that he was being forcibly fed had to be eaten even if he didnt want to eat it. Lu Feng was very low key as he continued to show off, Not only is he dedicated, hes also very affectionate. Chen Feng, whod been smacked in the face by this display early in the morning: Could you leave a way for single dogs to continue living! Chapter 188: When encountering trouble, start off with solo. Wei Xiao had stayed up all night, but his gains went beyond what hed put into words. He had gained a visual understanding of Yue Wenle, but it still required further exploration through action. Another important point was to figure out how to push Yue Wenles recklessness to the extreme. Changing it was too difficult; it was better to adapt it instead. Perhaps, Yue Wenles greatest problem wasnt that he was reckless, but that he wasnt reckless enough. As for how to strengthen it? Coincidentally, Wei Xiao had a lot of experience with this. When encountering trouble, start off with solo. This was FTWs ancestral inherited secret recipe. Three days later, the top four teams in the China competition zone came out, hot out of the oven. The names on the list didnt surprise anyoneCCFTW, RR, 3U, TPT. There were a total of four games for the eight into four round, and all four teams had played beautifully. The fans had a great time watching the games, and were very much looking forward to watching these four teams, who were in such good states, kill their way into the semi-finals. Of course, some fans were sour for no reason: Why did the competition system have to change this year? I love these four teams so much, I cant bear to see any of them be eliminated QAQ! Ill feel bad no matter who loses. I want to watch them go to the globals and continue to fight! Some people advised them, Think about it from another angle. Youll be happy no matter who wins! Why wait for the globals? Fight hard domestically! Whoever can take the championship will be fighting for our country! Thats even more domineering! Yeah! If theyre able to get the top spot from such a fierce clash, then theyll have nothing to fear in the globals! The semi-finals followed a draw system, and the competition committee had specially arranged for a live draw. There was a small dispute within FTW about the draw. Wei Xiao raised his hand. Chen Feng: You want to go? Wei Xiao shot Brother Cai a fawning glance, Let our Caicai go! If they didnt use his little lucky hands now, then when would they use it? Bai Cai felt a chill run down his back. He said in shock, I refuse! His hands were poisonous. Little Lunatic Wei was the lucky one, but he, the White Cabbage, was the opposite. As a salted fish, Brother Cai just wanted to pick soft persimmons. Although none of the three teams were soft, he would be a sinner forever if he drew 3U! Brother Cai knew that Wei Xiao had been training up Yue Wenle recently. The results of this special training wasnt clear, but it was certain that 3Us Asleep had an advantage over Yue Wenle, and it would be best if they tried not to meet 3U in the semi-finals. Wei Xiao stared at him. What are you backing down for? Bai Cai: I just am! Wei Xiao tried to seduce him. Go, go. Ill give you a red envelope. Brother Cai: Wei Xiao put up two fingers. Brother Cai puffed out his chest. Is Laozi a person who can be bought with just 2000? Wei Xiao: 20,000. Brother Cai: !!! Chen Feng knocked against the table and interrupted these two people who were messing around. Ill handle the draw. Brother Cai: Eh How come the 20,000 that had almost been in reach had now flown away? Wei Xiao was angry and disdained him. Who told you to drag things out! Bai Cai wanted to try for it again. I, in fact, I coach Chen Feng stared at him, and Brother Cai shut up. Lu Feng picked up the thread of the conversation, Ill go. Chen Feng shook his head. None of the starters should go. Wei Xiao and Bai Cai-cai both stopped. They understood Chen Fengs worries, so it was hard for them to say anything else. There was pressure involved in the draw for the semi-finals. Especially in FTWs current situation where they obviously hoped to avoid 3U in the semi-finals. There were expectations, fear, and disappointment. Regardless of whether it was Wei Xiao or Bai Cai, or even Lu Feng who went to draw lots, it would be alright if they drew a team they wanted, but if they drew an opponent they didnt want, it would inevitably have an impact on their mentality. Chen Feng offered to go in order to relieve them of this pressure. In this way, no matter what the results were, it would have nothing to do with their teammates, and the blame would be on Chen Feng. Of course, Wei Xiao and the others wouldnt complain. They just had to fight and be done with it; there was nothing to be afraid of! The results of the draw came out that night. Chen Feng: Brother Cai was even more distressed about the 20,000. Wei Xiao was in high spirits. Old Yue! The potato chip king that had been hollowed out these recent few days. Add two more hours. Wei Xiao chuckled. Sure. Little Ning was infected by their attitude. I want to work hard, too! Brother Yue was too inspirational. Ning Zhehan, whod been watching this special training, felt very sad. If he was the target of this special training, hed be crying every night until his voice went hoarse. The semi-finals draw map was posted up online. May 25: FTW vs. 3U. May 27: RR vs. TPT. FTW ultimately still encountered 3U, but now, Wei Xiao was really eager to show the results of this special training to the audience across the whole country. 3Us club. The atmosphere at the 3U club was more dignified than that of FTWs. This years FTW was in full swing. Quiet had joined their team, and their top-jungler combo was too strong. 3U had been able to win a game during the regular season, but Lu Feng hadnt been there at the time, and the tacit understanding between Tang Chen and Wei Xiao had obviously been a little lacking. It had been a close win for 3U even when they fought against FTW in that state, but now Zhou Xuehai, 3Us manager, was very upset after he saw the results of the draw. 3Us Coach Leng said directly, I was responsible for the draw, and this is the result. Zhou Xuehai: You have unlucky hands! Coach Leng: Even if you can avoid them in the semi-finals, you cant skip the finals and will always end up meeting them anyway. Zhou Xuehai: How can that be the same? One is the runner up, and the other is fourth place! There were five starters in the training room. Li Chun and the others had their eyes lowered and were as quiet as chickens. Asleep suddenly raised his head, his black eyes staring at Zhou Xuehai. Zhou Xuehai: He was caught by surprise and choked. Cong Yi said leisurely, The game hasnt been played yet, but youre already giving up? Zhou Xuehais heart felt blocked and flustered. He said, Are you guys not clear about FTWs situation in your own hearts? Cong Yi: If you dont even dare to face FTW, then so what if you win the championship? Do you plan for us to shame ourselves in the globals? Zhou Xuehai: Then, for better or worse, wed have to take the domestic championship first! Cong Yi sneered, So it turns out that you actually want to win the championship. This was retorting to his previous runner-up and fourth place comment from before. Zou Xuehai was so angry that he couldnt speak. Cong Yi glanced at Asleep, then said to Coach Leng. If theres nothing else, then well continue training. Zhou Xuehai was unable to get over his anger and asked, How are you doing with your doubles training? Cong Yi: Well talk about it after the domestic games. Another big change with the new competition system had taken place in the singles and doubles competitions. The big brawl mode had really changed the singles and doubles competition. There werent enough players from one competition zone to hold a 100 person battle. Therefore, the singles and doubles competition had been moved directly to the global competition. Like in the opening game, they would be broadcast live across the different competition zones, and the game was a direct global brawl. When Zhou Xuehai brought this up, his meaning was that he wanted to give up the team competition and strive for a good result in the doubles instead. Coach Leng couldnt listen on anymore. Although FTW is strong, were not weak either. Theres no need to bring up others like this and extinguish our own prestige. Zhou Xuehai still wanted to say something more. Asleep spoke up coldly, Noisy. Zhou Xuehai: At the end of the day, Zhou Xuehai couldnt afford to provoke the star player of the team and didnt dare to say anything else despite having a belly full of anger. He turned and left the training room. That night, all of 3Us games were played in silence. Asleeps expression was cold, and Cong Yi didnt try to adjust the atmosphere. Li Chun and the others didnt dare to make a sound, and their five queue games were played so quietly that it was horrifying. But even so, they managed a continuous winning streak in the professional server. It was particularly easy to run into other professional teams from all over the world when queuing as a team of five. Although the level of these anonymous teams was uneven, the fact that they were able to win the whole way was enough to prove 3Us strength. Asleep didnt say a word, was even blinking slowly, and the operations of his hands couldnt even be described as very fast, but once someone looked at the screen and saw the match being played in the canyon, theyd be amazed at the crackling mania of the thief in the game. He was lazy outside the game. But crazy inside the game. Coach Leng, who was watching from the side, was always amazed by this sharp contrast no matter how many times he saw it. Chapter 189: A mans waist cant be harmed. When Asleep first joined the team, Leng Feng had been the one to personally review his application. At the time, Zhou Xuehai had looked at Asleeps face and immediately proposed letting him join during the meeting, Sign him! Asleep was very good looking, and he also had certain characteristics: clean skin, lazy and careless eyebrows, and a constant half awake appearance. It held a sense of decadence, yet also had a youths unique fierceness. This face, coupled with his considerable achievements meant that there was a chance that hed be signed no matter which team he went to. It was alright if he couldnt make any achievements, because even if they kept him on just to do live-streaming, he would still be able to help the team gain money and popularity. Leng Feng and Zhou Xuehai had different ideas. Compared with commercial value, Leng Feng paid more attention to strength. Cong Yi is a good player. He has a good overall view of the situation and good game awareness. Hes now playing in the support position, but his hand speed evaluation was very high, and its not impossible for him to switch to other positions. The coaches also agreed with this, so Zhou Xuehai said, Cong Yi can be signed too. The value of a support position was a bit lower, but the signing price wasnt as high, and it would still bring a pretty good harvest. Leng Feng didnt look at him as he brought the topic back to the original subject, I dont recommend signing Asleep. Zhou Xuehai turned to look at him. But Asleep is much better than Cong Yi in all aspects! Leng Feng words could draw blood with a single hit. Hes not flexible enough. Zhou Xuehai was irritated. We havent even started training him up, how can you know that he isnt flexible? Leng Feng and Zhou Xuehai had worked together for many years, and he was very clear about this guys temperament. Were not in the entertainment industry. Whats the use of just looking at appearance? In e-sports, being unable to achieve any results was the original sin. If fans wanted to see good looking faces, why not go chase after stars? There were countless youths with faces better than Asleeps in the entertainment circle! Zhou Xuehai was unwilling to accept this. He plays thief very well. Leng Feng: The jungler position relies on coordination the most. If he doesnt say a single word, how will he cooperate with his teammates? Zhou Xuehai hesitated. Leng Feng knew what he was greedy for. Even if he does live streaming, the fans wont buy into it if he remains silent like a depressed gourd, either. This sentence was enough to convince Zhou Xuehai. He just thought that Asleep was good looking and he played games well, so when the time came, he could open up a live broadcast to attract fans. But hed forgotten that as an anchor, his ability to speak was more important than anything else. After Leng Fengs sharp comments, the final decision made at the meeting was to sign Cong Yi and let Asleep go. Unexpectedly, when Leng Feng notified Cong Yi, Cong Yi didnt hesitate to refuse. No. Leng Feng thought that he was displaying a childs temper, I know that you and Asleep have a good relationship, but you cant give up on your own future because of your friends. Cong Yi shook his head. I came here with him, and I wont leave him. Leng Feng stared at him, his gaze probing. I truly appreciate the importance you place on your relationships, but Asleep isnt suitable to play professionally. Cong Yi lifted his head to look at him. Why. There was a sand table behind Leng Feng. He pointed to the jungler position and said, Glory is a team game, and the canyon is a battlefield for five people. A player who cant communicate with his teammates and can only play by himself doesnt match the competition. There was no way for Cong Yi to refute this. Leng Feng continued, Asleeps personal strength is very high, and Im also very sorry to let him go, but you understand his situation better than anyone else. Do you really think that he can be suitable for this position? Do you really feel that a person who cant communicate with people properly can lead the team to victory? Cong Yis eyebrows pulled together tightly in a frown, and his tone held a hint of childish obstinacy, He can do it. Leng Feng looked at him in silence. Cong Yi gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and entered a standoff against Leng Feng. After a while, Leng Feng sighed. Cong Yi, the e-sports world is cruel. A person with an unstable mental state this place isnt suitable for such a person. Hed already stepped out of bonds with these words. Cong Yi: Asleeps mental state is very good! Leng Feng: Cong Yis voice raised up unconsciously. Theres no problem with him, he just doesnt like communicating with people! Leng Feng: Cong Yi realized that hed lost control and dropped his gaze. Sorry. Leng Feng really appreciated Cong Yis character. Otherwise, he wouldnt have said so much, If you really want to help him, then you shouldnt let him enter the professional arena. Cong Yi hung his head and didnt say anything for a long time. Finally, he uttered a very light sentence, his voice hoarse, But he likes Glory. This sentence hit Leng Feng hard. The emotions in Cong Yis eyes were solidly blocked by his hair, but his shoulders trembed. In his whole life, hes only ever accepted Glory, and this is the first time hes taken the initiative to come out Out of his own world, out of the quiet and silence. It was the first time hed attempted to come into contact with the world outside. Leng Feng couldnt say anything. Cong Yi looked at him. The youths eyes were both questioning and filled with longing. You really cant give him a chance? I believe that he can do it. Hes different when he plays games, and maybe he maybe he can learn to communicate with people in Glory. Leng Feng couldnt bear it, but he still had to tell him the truth, The competition wont wait for anyone. It wouldnt wait for them to grow, wouldnt wait for them to change, and wouldnt wait for them to learn. Anyone who stepped into this circle without being fully prepared would only be torn to shreds. Cong Yis gaze grew a little distant. Sorry. Hed been too naive. The club needed mature players and ready-made achievements, not a vague and uncertain future. Leng Feng felt like hed been stabbed in the heart when he saw him like this. I can give you guys a chance. Cong Yi looked up at him abruptly. Leng Feng knew that he shouldnt be soft hearted, but this heart of his had never had anything to do with the meaning behind his own name. I cant guarantee if this will be a good thing or bad thing for Asleep. meaning behind his own name C Leng Fengs name actually means cold front I understand! Cong Yi bowed to him deeply, Thank you! Leng Feng took responsibility for this decision and signed both Cong Yi and Asleep. At first, hed been the one who was most opposed to signing Asleep; later on, he was the one whod had the most expectations for Asleep. Zhou Xuehai only remembered Asleeps commercial value, but Leng Feng was always anticipatingCCwaiting for the time when Asleep and Cong Yi would break through their cocoon and become a butterfly. The five people from 3U queued until midnight, until the assistant coach urged them, Lets stop here for today. Li Chun, whod been enduring for several hours and almost felt like he could no longer breathe, got up and said, Captain, Brother Yi, Ill be going back to the dormitory first. Cong Yi: Go ahead. Asleep nodded very lightly. The teams top-laner and marksman also got up one after another and said goodbye together. Only Asleep and Cong Yi were left in the big training room. Cong Yi released his mouse and looked at him. Double queue? Asleep: Cong Yi got up and said, Wait, Ill go and smoke a cigarette first. Asleep: Cong Yi knew that Asleep didnt like it when he smoked, but God Yi showed a rare moment of obliviousness. Only Asleep was left in the training room, but his expression didnt change at all. He wouldnt become more active because there were a large number of people in the training room, and he wouldnt be depressed because he was on his own. He sat there in his seat, staring at the Glory canyon that had its defined limits and felt very calm. Fixed maps, where every corner was familiar. Even the positioning of the jungle creeps was invariable. But very different battles took place every time in this unchanging canyon. Asleep liked it hereCC He liked the constant and ever-changing, the familiar and the strange, the limited yet free Glory canyon. He opened up a training module and poked sporadically at the red jungle creep. One trait of a professional jungler was to have a good relationship with the red and blue daddies in the jungle zones. They had to know how to try and avoid their attacks in the early stages to retain their health, how to control their health bar, how to ensure maximum DPS, and they even had to know how to use punishment (an active skill that dealt damage to jungle creeps). These were all crucial details. Asleep had just knocked down a red daddy when the sound of a phone ringing entered his ears. A very recognizable female artists song rang out, and Asleep tilted his head to look at Cong Yis cell phone. Cong Yi hadnt come back yet, and it was impossible for Asleep to answer the phone for someone else. It was already 12 oclock in the morning. Could it be something urgent? Asleep exited out of the training module and picked up the cell phone, preparing to bring it out for Cong Yi. He inevitably saw the name of the caller when he picked up the cell phoneCC Professor Zhang. Asleep was stunned for a moment. The call was cut off at this time, and a message popped up, Aside from Asleep, you also need to pay more attention to your own state. When Cong Yi pushed open the door and came in, he saw Asleep sitting in the e-sports chair in a daze. Whats the matter? Others couldnt understand Asleeps mood, but Cong Yi could tell with a glance that his mood wasnt right. Asleep shook his head. Cong Yi glanced at his cell phone, then looked at Asleep. Professor Zhang called? Asleep nodded. Cong Yi picked up his cell phone and saw the message on the screen. Asleep stared fixedly at his computer screen. Cong Yi laughed briefly. You saw it? Asleep: Cong Yi put down his cell phone and said very casually, Professional players all have times when their mentalities arent great. Asleep looked at him. Cong Yi laughed. Dont worry. Im just upset by this new competition system. Asleep said lightly, No Cong Yi knew what he wanted to say. Dont be scared, theres nothing to be afraid of. Asleep: Cong Yi entered the game. Alright, I know youre powerful. You can abuse Yue Wenle, beat up Quiet, and win against the great demon king. Asleep: Mm. The two of them double queued for two hours before Cong Yi yawned and said, Time to sleep. Asleep didnt move. Cong Yi looked at the time. In that case, you keep playing. Im going to sleep. Asleep: Goodnight. Cong Yi: Goodnight. Saying goodnight at two in the morning wasnt much different from saying good morning. Asleep single queued in the professional server and played all the way until 7AM. Stayed up all night? A private message popped up. Asleep looked at that blinding IDCCI Love Close The Most. It had still been I Like Close The Most during the opening game, but now it had been changed to love. Really worthy of being Quiet. Asleep didnt like to talk, but he was alright when it came to typing, You havent slept yet either? I Love Close The Most: What are you thinking? Big brother got up early. My boyfriend went out for a morning run and sleeping on my own was too lonely. Asleep: You got up quite early. Wei Xiao yawned and teased him, Nervous? Whats there to be nervous about. You ran into your daddy in the semi-finals. Asleep: Wei Xiao really liked teasing Asleep. Call me daddy and during the game, I Asleep: Wei Xiao finished typing, I possibly wont spare your life. Asleep: Wei Xiaos eyes were filled with laughter. He opened up a game room. Solo? He sent him the room number. Asleep didnt want to pay attention to him, but he also couldnt resist this temptation, so he searched up the room number. Unexpectedly, there was actually a password for the room. Wei Xiao sent him a private message, The password is big brother. Asleep: Ill shark you. shark C shark and kill sound the same in Chinese. chinese internet joke/meme Wei Xiao: Come on, come on, Im waiting. Asleep entered the room and chose a hero within seconds. Wei Xiao casually took the storm hunter. Asleep didnt say much either. After entering the game, he used up his skill points, bought equipment, and entered stealth mode to attack the storm hunter. This new solo mode was very different from before. Killing soldiers? Unnecessary. Developing? No need. Players had maxed gold, maxed equipment, and maxed levels at the start of the game, and fighting against each other only relied on a players operations. Asleep took the hidden thief, and Wei Xiao had taken the storm hunter. Although thieves had a natural advantage over hunters, the storm hunter itself had assassin type attributes. When played well, it was difficult to say who would win or lose. Wei Xiao covered up half the screen with raindrops, attempting to stimulate the stealthed Asleep into coming out. Unexpectedly, Asleeps positioning was godly and not even half of a raindrop was able to touch him There was a whistling sound, and Wei Xiao was stabbed in the back with a blade. The hidden thief landed on the ground from the shadows, stabbing its dagger into the storm hunters back. Wei Xiao stepped on raindrops to escape, and he even had time to type while doing so, Brother Sleep, a mans waist cant be harmed. The author has something to say: Hello? Is it Captain Lu? Theres a Reckless Wei over here Ah, Ive been killed by the storm hunters arrow. Chapter 190: Clothing that fits the body - how could it be bought by other people? Asleeps reply to him was another dagger attack that stabbed accurately at the other side of his waist. How could Wei Xiao let him succeed twice? The elven storm hunter stepped lightly on raindrops and bypassed this basic attack. Now, there was no more time for them to type and chatter. Both players, who had maxed out their skills and equipment, tangled together and fought endlessly. The hidden thiefs blade was fierce and accurate, while the storm hunter dodged easily, sending in arrows from afar like flying a kite and causing pain to the hidden thief bit by bit. They were both holding back on their combos and relying on just hand speed and micro-operations. Now, a solo game wouldnt take too long to finish. One or two minutes was the limit for such seamless operations, and even for players as talented as they were, they wouldnt be able to hold on past three minutes. The situation became increasingly intense. The storm hunter moved half a second faster than the hidden thief as Wei Xiao pushed the limits of the storm hunter and stepped on raindropsCC The rain and fog that covered the sky suddenly condensed and every drop of water turned into a mirror that reflected the storm hunters figure and confused the enemys sight. Although Asleep never used the storm hunter, he was very familiar with this talent. As a jungler, he had to understand all the micro-operations of all the c-positions. Even so, Wei Xiaos storm hunter was very different this time. He gathered his thoughts and used his dagger to break through three illusions before going straight for the storm hunter. His hit landed! The hidden thief could stack up marks while it remained in stealth, and they would greatly increase the damage of his basic attack. Based on his fully buffed up dagger, there was a 100% certainty that he could take away the storm hunters life. Asleeps attention was fully focused on the elfs figure. He would absolutely never give him the slightest opportunity to slip away. The black-streaked dagger stabbed into the storm hunters body. Special effects burst out, and blood Asleeps pupils contracted: Oh no! There was a bang. There was no blood that gushed out with the special effects. Instead, it dispersed into water droplets and fog. This was another phantom, not the storm hunters main body. Whish, whish. Flying arrows that held a cold aura flew over, aimed straight at the hidden thiefs face. Asleep retreated as he blocked, but the angle of the three arrows was tricky, and he was only able to block one of them. Two arrows landed with splashes of blood, and Asleeps HP plummeted. Wei Xiao revealed himself, and another arrow of rain flew over, glistening with water. Asleeps eyes were sharp, and he could see that there was a red light on the arrowCCthis wasnt an exaggeration, but rather a small technique from within the game. Some equipment held passive effects, such as one of the marksmens maxed equipment, the blood devils longbow, which had a chance to trigger a blood explosion. When hit by such an arrow, the hidden thief would fall to the ground and be unable to get back up again even if it was at more than at half health, let alone in its current precarious state. He had to escape! Asleeps nerves were taut, and he felt a shiver surge up from within. This was the charm of Glory. Even if his body was outside the canyon, his soul was immersed in the battlefield. The hidden thief used flash to retreat and avoid the storm hunters frontal assault, but unfortunately, his HP was too low and even getting scratched by the storm hunters arrow was enough to ensure his death. Defeat. This scarlet script announcing defeat appeared on Asleeps screen. Solo games were now this direct and simple. Death meant that the game was over. The two of them returned to the game room. Wei Xiao sent out a message, Youre not in good condition. Asleep: Wei Xiao: Go to sleep, I wont bully you anymore. Asleep: Again. Wei Xiao turned on voice chat, Are you really nervous? Asleep: Wei Xiao changed the room mode, switching it from a solo room to a team room. Double queue. Asleep hesitated for a moment. Wei Xiao: Hurry up, Im going downstairs to eat in a bit. He was going to go and eat with the captain after he finished his morning run. Asleep clicked on the ready button. Wei Xiao had turned on voice chat, so Asleep turned his on as well, but hed always chosen to type to people even with his mic on. Im not nervous. Wei Xiao: Oh. Asleep explained it again, Theres nothing to be nervous about. Wei Xiao hit the nail on the head, Then why are you out of sorts? After trying to put up with it for a moment, Sleep God was unable to hold back and asked him, How could you tell? It was true that he was in a bad mood, but it had nothing to do with being nervous. However, basically no one else could understand his emotions other than Cong Yi. How was Quiet able to detect it across an internet cable? Wei Xiao started acting up again. Oh-ho, you really are nervous! Asleep: He didnt want to talk to him anymore! The two of them were matched into a game right then and entered the game. Asleep and Wei Xiao were different. Ever since hed started playing Glory, Asleep had only liked to play the jungler position. It was to the point where it should be said that he only liked the thief profession. Wei Xiao also liked thieves, but he liked all-rounder kings even more. Oh, there was no need to doubt this; his boyfriend was an all-rounder king. Wei Xiao understood Brother Sleep. What do you want to play? He was in the first position and could help Asleep snatch the jungler position. Asleep: Shadow thief. Wei Xiaos mouth said, Okay. But then he locked in the berserker thief. Asleep: ??? Wei Xiaos tone was very righteous. What do you want to do with the shadow thief? Laozis already letting you take the jungler position, yet you want to play with my man in front of me? Brother Sleep fell silent. Reality proved that sleeping was really attractive. Why had he passed up on it to come out to play games with beasts?! Wei Xiao took the butterfly warlock. It was the little fairy girl from Zhuang Zhous story: The Butterfly Dream, and she was a famous beauty within the canyon. As soon as Wei Xiao entered the game, he asked, Do I look good? In the most recent game update, the butterfly warlock had gotten a new skin. It was an ethereal fairy dress and was surrounded by a circle of small butterflies that floated about everywhere. It was very ethereal. The female fans were quite satisfied with this skin, and they all said that they had to obtain it. Yet as a result, the game acted inhumanely and tossed the skin into the prize pool. Compared with various RPG games, Glory wasnt that much of a pay-to-win game. After all, spending money was of little significance, and players wouldnt become stronger just because theyd spent money. So, the balance of the game had always been very good. However, Glory also needed to make money. How? Naturally, it was through selling skins. Couple skins, bravery skins, epic skins, legendary skins, and even divine skins. These divine skins couldnt be obtained by simply spending money. They had to be drawn from the prize pool. It was difficult to put a number on the upper limit required for this lottery. If a person was lucky, they could obtain the skin with 200 or 300 yuan, and if they were unlucky, they might not be able to get it even after spending 2000 or 3000. Glorys divine rich man Money had once live streamed himself drawing for a skin. Hed spent a full 5000 without getting the skin he wanted. How deep was this pit? Those who played the game all understood. Asleep wasnt interested in skins and was a straight man with abnormal aesthetics. Looks good. Wei Xiao: Perfunctory! Asleep: Wei Xiao wasnt some little princess and wasnt really obsessed over the skin for this female character. He naturally had a purpose behind bringing this up. Do you know how I got this skin? Asleep: Lucky draw. Wei Xiao: Nonsense. Asleep: Wei Xiaos voice held a little pride. My captain helped me draw it! Asleep: Oh. Wei Xiao stressed, My captain, Close! Asleep: And? Who else could FTWs captain be. Wei Xiao wouldnt be discouraged by this. I originally wanted to ask Brother Cai to help me draw. You know how Brother Cai has those lucky hands that can even draw a Porsche. Asleep wasnt deeply involved in worldly matters and dared to continue the conversation, So why didnt you let Brother Cai draw? Wei Xiao saw that this fish was hooked and was happy. Sigh, my captain wouldnt let me. Asleep: ? Wei Xiao: Clothing that fits the body C how could it be bought by other people? Asleep: ??? Wei Xiao: Its just that, the captains luck wasnt good and it took him 520 draws to get the skin. Asleep started to sense that something wasnt quite right. Wei Xiao stressed, Really, Im not lying to you. He really drew 520 times. Asleep: Hed basically managed to say what he wanted to say, so Wei Xiaos heart was satisfied. This skins really beautiful. Asleep vowed that he wouldnt even think of going to the mid-lane during this game. The butterfly warlock could flaunt her beauty there alone! It was just a casual game, so the two of them crushed the other side in all sorts of ways. The berserker thief got a triple kill and a quadra kill, and the butterfly warlock obtained a quadra kill and a penta kill. The players on the other side had dazed expressions on their face. Xiehe? Wei Xiao: Mm. He then sent out another message in English, Am I beautiful? The players on the opposite side: God Xie sat at his own base, and this big pot fell down on him from the sky. The advantages theyd gained in this game were too large, and in the later stages, Wei Xiao stopped where he stood to count butterflies. Although Im very strong, why didnt you come to the mid-lane even once? He asked Asleep. Asleep: Would you let me eat your soldiers? As everyone knew, lane soldiers meant farm, and farm was life. Anyone who dared to eat a c-positions lane soldiers would be severing all friendship with them, got it? Other than Close, if anyone else said these words to Wei Xiao, there was an 80% chance that hed tell them to get lost. However Wei Xiao: Alright. A chill ran down Asleeps back. Wei Xiao: Ill let you bully me now, and then hammer you to tears in the semi-finals. Asleep breathed in lightly and grew annoyed again. Its not because of the semi-finals! Being able to get Brother Sleep to add an exclamation mark proved that Wei Xiao really wasnt an ordinary person. Oh. Wei Xiao stabbed at Asleep again. So you fought with Cong Yi? Asleep: Wei Xiaos interest was piqued. The butterfly warlock stood there in the mid-lane and didnt move as his fingers flew over the keyboard. You two actually fight? Quickly tell me what you fought about? Could it be that God Yi has another jungler king in his heart? Which little cub is acting so arrogant? Tell me, and Ill go blow him up! Asleep looked at these densely packed words and felt his head hurt. He didnt understand why there could be a creature like Quiet in this world. A person who was sharp to such extremes, yet also shameless to such extremes. But it was impossible to hate this person even as his opponent. Asleep: We didnt fight. Wei Xiao: So what happened to you this evening? Asleep wasnt good at communicating, and he didnt like to express himself. Even more so, he didnt like to reflect on himself. As a person who hid even from himself, how could he let others know his real self? Asleep breathed in lightly and explained things very briefly. He was very surprised as he looked at the private message hed sent out. So it turned out that even he would tell others. Wei Xiao made an oh sound, and for once, his tone was a little more serious when he spoke, Brother Sleep, why do you think Cong Yi plays support? Asleep froze for a moment. Wei Xiao said, Cong Yis not like Bai Cai. My familys vegetable has a salted fish personality, and his life ambition is to take things easy. He would never choose to walk if he could remain lying down all the way to the Temple of the Gods. Cong Yi isnt like this. Although I havent seen him play other heroes, given that he can play the elemental shaman like that, regardless of whether its his hand speed or his micro-operations, both of them have to be pretty good. Looking at the global Glory circle, the three people who can play the elemental shaman that well are Yan Jiang, Li Heran, and Cong Yi. Theres no need to mention Yan Jiang, but Li Heran was the worlds number one ADC back then. Even if hes been injured, he still has enough skill to do the micro-operations. Cong Yis elemental shaman is no worse than his. Im quite curious about this. If Cong Yi played the butterfly warlock, would he be able to fill up the mid-lane with magic butterflies? Asleeps heart felt like it had been smashed by a heavy hammer as he listened to Wei Xiaos words. Wei Xiao continued to ask, So, why does he play support? Asleeps fingers landed on the keyboard, but he was unable to type out even half a word. Wei Xiao said it for him, Because he wants to protect you. Asleeps eyelashes drifted down, and his thin lips were pulled into a taut line. Wei Xiao filled the screen with magic butterflies and casually killed the three players from the other side who were trying to encircle and kill him. He said slowly, Although its a support players duty to protect their teammates, no one has ever stipulated that a jungler cant protect their support. Chapter 191.1: Domestic semi-finals! Asleep looked on in a daze. On the screen, the butterfly warlock was surrounded by a circle of butterflies, looking like a dream of light and shadows. Butterflies in dreams. Because of some things that had happened in his early years, Asleeps memory wasnt very good. He didnt remember things that had happened more than a little while ago. Professor Zhang had said that forgetting was a very good way to heal, so Asleep had never taken the initiative to recall the past. However at this moment, looking at the butterfly warlock, there was a scene that seemed to appear and overlap with the present. Was it a year ago, or two years ago, or maybe three years ago? When they had played Glory for the first time, what hero had Cong Yi used? Warlock Butterfly warlock This butterfly warlock is very strong. There are so many butterflies even in a bronze ranked game, how badass. This must be someones alt account! Are they trying to rank in the national servers? Big boss, take a look at me! Are you short of a leg accessory who can blow rainbow farts? The game ended, and Cong Yi had asked Asleep, Was it fun? Asleep: Mm. Cong Yi: The butterfly warlock is very interesting. Would you like to try it? Asleep shook his head. Cong Yi: Then, what do you want to play? Asleep pointed to the thief on the screen. Cong Yi smiled. This one? Its a bit like you. Thieves hid and filled the darkness with thorns. From then on, Cong Yi started to play support. The sacred holy priest, the bright light priest, the sturdy giant shaman, the complex elemental shaman The only warlock that he ever touched now was the medicine warlock. It turned out that Asleep could remember these things that happened long ago. Asleep stood where he was and didnt move at all. You dont want the blue daddy? Wei Xiao immediately went to snatch the blue buff. Im taking it. Asleep came back to his senses: His jungle creep had already been snatched away by Wei Xiao. Shameless. Asleep typed out the word. Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. This is called an able man is always busy. After taking the blue buff, not only was his mana unlimited, there was also a reduction to his cooldown timers. The butterfly warlocks performance became even more outrageous. At the end of the game, the MVP naturally went to Wei Xiao. Asleep became a decoration in the later stages of the game. He couldnt snatch a single kill, and it was unnecessary for him to harvest anything. Other than leading the lane soldiers and clearing creeps, there was nothing else for him to do. After the game ended, Wei Xiao looked at the time. Im going to go eat. Asleep: Oh. Wei Xiao: Go get some sleep. Asleep: Wei Xiao: Keep your spirits up and lie there waiting to be abused in the semi-finals. Asleep: Wei Xiao left without a backwards glance, or it could be said that he was burning with worry. The captain was already upstairs and should be showering. If he didnt go in and sneak up on him, then why had he woken up so early in the first place?! He quit the game and walked barefoot to the bathroom. Hed just pushed the door open when Lu Fengs low voice sounded out. Careful, dont slip. Wei Xiao ignored him and ran in with his clothes on. Lu Feng turned off the shower. Your clothes will get wet after a while. Wei Xiao looked at his boyfriends chest muscles and abs. If you want me to take off my clothing, just say it directly. Theres no need to be so euphemistic. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao deliberately lifted up the hem of his t-shirt and revealed half of his waist. Lu Feng: Go out. Wei Xiao: I want to shower, too. Lu Feng shifted his gaze away. Then you go first. Wei Xiao pasted himself up against him, his hands misbehaving. Captain, why are you so big Lu Feng tilted his head and bit at his restless mouth. When it came to banning sex, Lu Feng was the one who ended up being punished. A certain little beast still felt great, because all he had banned was the last step. He moaned and hummed happily on his own, while Lu Feng had to hold back from screwing him to death. When they went to eat breakfast, Wei Xiaos expression was very refreshed as he told him about Asleeps matter. Lu Fengs hand paused as it was peeling shrimp, dropping his gaze to cover the smile in his eyes. Bai Cai-cai, whod finished walking the dog and stayed behind to eat and be a big light bulb, was shocked. Old Wei, can you do it or not? Wei Xiao was waiting to eat the shrimp. Why cant I do it now? The captain was there, so he didnt dare to say anything dirty. He corrected himself, This wave of guidance you gave him is really excellent. Its like youre afraid that 3U wont 3:0 us! Wei Xiao sighed. Old Bai, youre so dirty. Bai Cai: Im dirtying your daddy! Bai Cai snuck a glance at the captainCCsigh, he didnt want to look anymore. The great demon king was peeling shrimp and serving congee; his character design was completely broken! Brother Cai said, Were going to be up against 3U soon. Just let them solve their problems on their own, why the hell would you rush in like that! If you wake Asleep up like waking a sleeping lion, and God Yi does a wave of excellent plays, then how will we win the semi-finals?! Wei Xiao glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes. Youre afraid of Cong Yi? Bai Cai: He really had to respect this little beast. Did he have to be so sharp?! Wei Xiao propped his cheek on his hand and looked at him. It turns out youre afraid of Cong Yi, hey. Bai Cais face flushed red. Im afraid of your daddy! Wei Xiao stuffed his mouth with a broccoli. Dont be afraid, big brother will protect you. Lu Feng: Cough. Bai Cai: Cough, cough, cough, cough! Dont judge based on how they were all coughs, the gap between them wasnt insignificant. One was a fake cough, while the other was practically coughing up his own heart! Wei Xiao turned his head and fed Lu Feng a piece of bacon. I have the captain to protect me~ This spoiled brat was becoming more and more spoiled! Brother Cai gulped down three consecutive mouthfuls of water and really couldnt hold on anymore,.I-Im finished eating! He was afraid that he wouldnt be able to protect his little life if he remained here. Wei Xiao waved his hand. Snap out of it, were still expecting you to beat God Yan in the globals. The fleeing little vegetable almost slipped and fell. Only Lu Feng and Wei Xiao were left in the dining area. Wei Xiao drank his watermelon juice and said, I purposely said that for Bai Cai to hear. Wei Xiao couldve talked to Lu Feng about Asleep and Cong Yi privately, but hed chosen to speak of it at the table because he wanted to stimulate Bai Cai. Lu Feng had guessed his intentions. Wei Xiao complained, If I dont scare him a bit, then that salted fish vegetable wont get serious. Lu Feng placed the shrimp on his plate. With you protecting him, he doesnt have anything to fear. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng: Give him the taste of the whip, then feed him a piece of sugar. Wei Little Xiao, you really know how to coax people. The hair at the top of Wei Xiaos head stood straight up. Ah, this is all strategy, team strategy! Lu Feng: Ha-ha. Wei Xiao hurriedly softened his voice, I only coax you; in this lifetime, Ill Lu Feng didnt look at him. Wei Xiao came close to his ear. Only coax you. The corner of Lu Fengs mouth curved up, and he stuffed a piece of toast in Wei Xiaos mouth. Eat. Wei Xiaos mouth was damned good at seducing, How about first eating He didnt dare to say me. Lu Feng stared at him. Wei Xiao started to behave. Okay, okay. Banning sex was the cruelest thing in this world! The weather was very hot on May 25th. S City had no spring or autumn. Winter was followed by summer, and even before June arrived, the weather was stuffy enough to leave people upset and dizzy. FTWs summer team uniform was very good. It was a polo style uniform, slim fitted with a neat neckline and a thin white edge on the short sleeves; it was just the right amount of embellishment. The players name was on their left chest in white font on a black background, simple and clean. The only decoration was the flying dragon and dancing phoenix team emblem on the back, printed in white. The three letters FTW were centered between two crossed swords with a circle in the background, like the sun in the sky. The clothing was all the same, but individuals gave off different effects when they wore it. Little Ning had newly dyed his hair a hazy blue. Paired with his clean, white skin, he looked like a rebellious teenager, even if his personality was so well-behaved that he was more like a little white rabbit. Yue Wenle looked even paler in the black clothing. Adding on his recent bout of special training, he looked like a vampire from the Middle Ages who would be baked into a potato chip if he didnt hide from the sun. Bai Cai was the shortest in the team. With his polite and amiable temperament and broad smile, he was the most popular person (wife) in the heart of all fans worldwide. It was the first time Wei Xiao was wearing the summer uniform, and it was a new experience for him. The neckline is a little tight. His fingers were slender, and he loosened up two buttons to reveal half of his collarbone. Lu Feng raised his eyebrows. Wei Xiao looked at him. Captain, arent you hot? Lu Fengs buttons were done up to the top, and his collar was straight and neat. The lines of his body were outlined perfectly. Wei Xiao couldnt help himself despite how they were in front of the whole team. Youre too handsome! The corner of Lu Fengs eyes landed on his neckline. Button it up. Wei Xiao: Its hot. Lu Feng stared at him. Wei Xiao: Really! Lu Feng ignored him. The fans were crying out loudly about the uniforms getting changed to a crew neck shirt next season! Their male god group! They were too explosively handsome! Quiets wild style and Closes minimalist style were both absolutely amazing, okay? What was up with changing everyone to a crew neck shirt? FTWs operations team, wake up! Although, round collars were also very handsome And very attractive There were promotional films for the semi-finals. When FTW went to shoot theirs, the stylists and cameraman had all been very enthusiastic. They were too easy to shoot, looking handsome no matter what arrangements were made. Any angle could be blown up into a large scale photo. It was especially the case when Lu Feng and Wei Xiao stood together. Every inch of them looked irresistible with their two pairs of long, straight legs! Chapter 191.2: System Announcement First Blood! When the game officials released the posters, the passionate fans sent Feng-Xiao straight up into that days hot search. The passersby felt their eyes hurt when they saw it. Your Glory circles badass. How come their appearance value has soared up again?! Close is really handsome. Theres no help for it, I want to try playing this game again. As soon as I think about how such a good looking little brothers playing it, I cant help myself! Who is Wei Xiao? FTWs new jungler, his ID is Quiet! Hes really good looking. Its rare to find someone who can look so natural when theyre standing beside Close. What do you mean, natural? Theyre clearly a pair! Ahhhhh, my Feng-Xiao darlings, Mama loves you both ahhhhh! FTW can do it. If they cant win the championship, they can still go out and make their debut as a boy group. ??? Upstairs, shut up. Our FTW will definitely be the champion this year! The venue for the semi-finals couldnt be compared with that of the regular season and playoffs. After all, it was a competition between the top four, and the competition committee attached great importance to it. Theyd rented a venue that could fit several tens of thousands of people and also installed a holographic projector. Wei Xiao was quite curious. What will they do with the holographic projector? Xiang Liu explained it to him, Theyll project the battle in the canyon to the whole venue. Wei Xiao was surprised. Thats so awesome! He wanted to see it! He didnt even want to play anymore! Chen Feng saw through what he was thinking at a glance and said, The projection will only expose more flaws, and players mistakes will be infinitely magnified. Brother Cai: ! Wei Xiaos perspective was always different. In that case, wont the nine light arcs look even more explosive? Chen Feng: Lu Feng replied, Mm. In the next second, Wei Xiao was annoyed again. They wont let the shadow thief out! So angry! He really wanted to know what nine light arcs looked like on a holographic projection. Lu Feng: Therell be a chance for it. Wei Xiao thought about it and realized, Thats right, theres no BP in the singles! Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiaos eyes curved. When the time comes, you use the shadow thief so that I can see nine light arcs at the scene. Lu Feng indulged him, Okay. Chen Feng: Do the two of you even care about me as a coach! Well, as a coach, I also would recommend Lu Feng use the shadow thief in the singles competition. After the host said a whole host of things, and the promotional video was also played at the scene, the two teams entered the stage. Generally, the teams top-lane player would enter first. As soon as Close stepped out of the entrance and even before the lights could shine down on him, the screams in the venue had already boiled up like heat waves, each wave of sound louder than the previous one. When Little Ning, who was to be the second to appear, heard the applause and cheering, and he grew a little nervous. Brother Cai spoke from where he was standing behind him, Its okay. Little Ning breathed in lightly, then nodded hard. Yes! It was okay. Theyd made enough preparations, and theyd made a lot of progress. They would surely win beautifully today! Ning Zhehan breathed in again, then walked out into the bright lights. This was the first time hed ever come to such a venue, and the first time hed been faced with such tremendous applause. It was also the first time hed faced such an important event. The national semi-finals They had to win it in order to enter the finals. They couldnt lose. Little Ning clenched his fists and stood beside their captain. After that came Bai Cai and Yue Wenle, and finally, Wei Xiao. Wei Xiaos gutsiness was vividly on display at these kinds of occasions. It was his first time facing this kind of scene, and his first time experiencing such a grand event, but Wei Xiao felt no tension at all and could even wave his hand while showing off a sunny smile. The fans shouted his name and were even more enthusiastic in response. The championships unique battle song rang out. The five players from FTW bowed, and the old fans in the live broadcast filled up the scrolling comments crazily. Although this was a standard arrangement, the order in which the players appeared still touched them. The first to come on stage was CloseCCthe man who opened up a new era for FTW. The last to come on stage was QuietCCthe strongest dark horse in FTWs powerful, new era. It was an unintentional arrangement, but it provided fans with the best answer. This years FTW was bringing hope to everyone. When 3U came out, fans from the other side also started shouting. Their top-laner Xuan Long was already an old player. He came out of the entrance very naturally and his smile was bright. After that came Li Chun, their mid-laner. He was a little like Ning Zhehan, and although hed experienced more than Li Chun, his character was still somewhat childish and restrained. He smiled subtly at everyone. Then came their support player Cong Yi. The cheers from 3Us fans reached a new peak when he came out, shouting God Yi loudly one after another. Cong Yi waved to everyone, his expression gentle and polite. 3Us marksman was also an old player. Hed already played for four or five seasons, displaying his stunning talent along the way. Hed only joined 3U last year, and his name was Wen Wei. His appearance was quite ordinary; he was a little chubby, and he looked steady and reliable. The last to come on stage was their jungler Asleep. He was also 3Us captain. Asleep was one of the players most well-deserved to be called a star player in China this year. 3Us team uniform was dark gray, and it brought out a different kind of aura when Asleep wore it. His short hair reached his ears, and the dark black of his hair set off his complexion in a way that made it appear even more pale. His handsome facial features appeared extra attractive because of his silence. He stood quietly on the dazzling stage, and there was a unique sense of world weariness about him that made the fans fall for him. The players all came out, bowed to the audience, and then the battle began. The hosts voice was crisp and lively, The first BO5 game of the China competition zones semi-finals has officially begun! The audience gave a warm round of applause. The referees came up onto the stage and checked over the players information, looked over their peripherals, and the players started debugging their headsets and machines. Finally, the game server was set up, and they entered the BP stage. The contestants couldnt see what was going on on the stage, but they vaguely heard the audiences screams. Wei Xiao was very excited. It must be because the holographic projection is too beautiful! Bai Cai had originally been a nervous vegetable, and now his mood had collapsed! Little Ning burst out laughing. That should be it. Wei Xiao sighed. Unfortunately, we cant see anything from here. The players really couldnt see anything, but the audience was very happy. Holographic projection technology had been maturing more and more. Now, it could project the entire canyon into the venue, and the audience could see a 3D picture directly without having to wear 3D glasses. As soon as the game entered the BP segment, they could see the projected heroes standing on the screen one by one, just like seeing real people. Both teams began to ban and select heroes, and the projection on the stage changed as they switched their selections. The audience was so dazzled that they didnt have attention to spare on analyzing the line-up. The commentators were able to stay more professional, and they attempted to draw the audiences attention back to the game. As expected, 3U banned the shadow thief. Of course, Closes shadow thief has to be shown respect. Speaking of which, can Quiet brush out nine light arcs however he likes? Hard to say. I dont feel that its necessary for him to waste time on it. No one will ever let the shadow thief out. It can still be used during the doubles competition. Theres still Close in the doubles competition, and Quiet doesnt need to take the shadow thief. Their discussion aligned with many of the fans ideas. Practicing the nine light arcs was time-consuming and of little use, and it was really unnecessary. No one would release the shadow thief to FTW in the team competition, and there was Close in the doubles. Quiet should focus on improving his skill with other talents. The audience was quite regretful. I want to see the nine light arcs Will we be able to see the nine light arcs under the holographic projection in this lifetime? The singles competition! There might even be ten light arcs! But we have to wait for a long time before the singles The BP segment between both sides ended amidst this discussion from the commentators and the audience. FTW and 3U were old acquaintances and were very familiar with each others routines. It was hard for them to mess with each other in the BP segment. On FTWs side, Lu Feng took the death knight, Wei Xiao took the immortal thief, Ning Zhehan took the fire mage, Bai Cai took the storm priest who had been a little unpopular this season, and Yue Wenle took the night druid. 3U wasnt polite with their line-up, either. Xuan Long snatched up the berserker warrior, Asleep took the hidden thief, Li Chun took the ice mage, Cong Yi took the light priest, and Wen Wei took the fire launcher. Death knight vs berserker warrior. Immortal thief vs hidden thief. Fire mage vs ice mage. Storm priest vs light priest. Night druid vs fire launcher. Judging from the line-up, both sides had their own advantages and disadvantages. How the match turned out would depend on their on the spot performances. The commentator analyzed the early and later stages of the line-up as the game finished loading. The entire canyon spread out in front of the audience. Even if theyd already been psychologically prepared for the holographic projection, the audience still grew very enthusiastic when they saw this scene! Its like watching a big animated movie! The immortal thief is so handsome ahhhhh, with the holographic projection, every hair seems to float like that of an immortals. Ill love the immortal thief for ten thousand years! The death knight is explosively handsome, too. Close switched to the heavy form at the start; this figure, these bone wings, this magical armor, Im dead, and I need Close to kiss me before I can be revived. Upstairs, dream on! Pull the person upstairs out and chop them to death! The audience in the live broadcast room were all acting like this, and the live audience was even more dazzled. They cleared their jungle, clashed in the lanes. Neither side entered the opposing sides jungle, and theyd originally thought that it would be a smooth start, but unexpectedly, after one and a half minutesCC The death knight and berserker warrior started fighting! The berserker warrior has an advantage before level six. The death knight has stacked up a lot of magic marks. Unfortunately, he doesnt have enough skill points and the magic marks are useless. The two of them are losing health very quickly. I never knew that Xuan Long was so fierce. Theyre at half health, but Close doesnt show any intention of retreating at all. Neither Asleep nor Wei Xiao have gone up to provide support! This System AnnouncementCC First Blood! FTW.Close killed 3U.Dragon. Chapter 192.1: Mommy, is the Pajamas CP about to collapse? Because the battle situation between the two sides was currently quite calm, the director replayed the fight in the top lane from just now. It was only one minute and 30 seconds into the game. Both sides finished off a wave of lane soldiers and reached level two, then actually fought so fiercely! Closes death knight usually started with its heavy form, which was a standard operation. After all, while the light form had high mobility, it had relatively low damage and wasnt conducive to early lane farming. The hero had to reach level six before it could switch forms and use the light forms high movement speed and support the team. The death knights heavy form had high defense, and it also had a 5% immunity to all physical damage. It could also purify itself if it could brush up its magic marks, but of course, there had to be enough skill points to play out this effect. This wasnt a problem of player operations, but a limit that came from the game mechanics. In contrast, Xuan Longs berserker warrior was very domineering in the early stages. Its first skill, Bold and Resolute, dealt a good amount of damage. Its second skill, Axe Shakes the Earth, had the added effect of sending its target flying. In a situation where both sides were only level three or four, he didnt need to be afraid of anyone. It was precisely this confidence that had made Xuan Long dare to compete against Lu Feng in a solo fight! From the gods perspective, the audience could see that neither team had gone up to provide support. Theyd naturally communicated over their team chats. Cong Yi had asked Xuan Long, Can you do it? Xuan Long was determined. I can run away even if I cant win. Cong Yi: Okay. Although Asleep hadnt said anything, he and Cong Yis tacit understanding was invincible. Cong Yi asked what he wanted to ask, and Xuan Longs reply was also for Asleep. Since Xuan Long didnt need support, Asleep sped up his pace as he cleared out the jungle, trying to reach the mid-lane before Wei Xiao did. FTWs communication was even more simple and rough. Wei Xiao: Captain! Kill him! Lu Fengs voice was very calm. Mm. Brother Cais teeth felt sour; hed eaten too much dog food. Even the great demon kings monosyllable sounded inexplicable doting. Xuan Long made use of his talent advantage and began to bully the death knight after hed cleared the lane soldiers. In the first clash, the berserker warrior was obviously dominant; Bold and Resolute had a wide range, and a close combat warrior like the death knight couldnt avoid it just by adjusting its positioning. He watched as Closes health dropped halfway, and Xuan Long started feeling a little bold. Fellow brothers, I may actually be able to kill the great demon king. Li Chun waved a flag to cheer him on from the mid lane, yelling, Go for it, Brother Long! You deserve to get First Blood in the semi-finals. Wen Wei fired a shot for him from afar. Kill Close in a solo fight? Brother Long, well be able to boast about it for a whole year! Xuan Longs attention focused. Okay! Cong Yi didnt say anything, and Asleep was even less likely to speak up. Based on their understanding of Close, it was very difficult for Xuan Long to kill him. But theyd already reached this point, and saying anything would be like pouring cold water over his enthusiasm. They couldnt stop it in any case, and their team momentum was obviously more important than First Blood. Xuan Long kept an eye on the death knights position. He used Axe Shakes the Earth and watched, waiting to send the death knight flying. As long as he could control him for 0.5 seconds, his next enhanced attack would definitely send Close to his death. Alright! Xuan Longs eyes were bright, and he waited for the death knight to be sent up into the air by the axe slamming into the ground He dodged it! In this wave, the death knight moved like a snake, using an extremely small margin to avoid the berserker warriors double axe earthquake! The audience could see it too, and they saw it even more clearly than the commentators. This was the advantage of the holographic projectionCCthe director focused the camera on the fight, and the audience could clearly see the fighting between both sides. It turned out that Glorys skills were as subtle and accurate as the game officials claimed, and it turned out that professional players operations were really this perfect. It was really possible to avoid a skill by a margin as thin as a hair! The double axe earthquake missed! Not only did it fail to control the death knight, Xuan Longs enhanced basic attack was also gone! Now The death knight started fighting back. He also had a skill that could send his opponent flying, and they watched as his heavy sword swept up, accurately slamming into the berserker warrior. The berserker warrior soared up into the air. Xuan Long was unable to operate the character before it landed, and the 0.5 second gap was enough for the death knight to brush up his magic seals. The commentators voice went up subconsciously, If the death knight was level six, the berserker warrior wouldve already died a hundred times! Closes magic mark efficiency is comparable to Marshals! Of course. In the past, during the singles competition, Close was able to win the world championship with the death knight. It seems that in this round, Xuan Long Their skills were all used in the blink of an eye. Just now, the death knight had been under half health and was seriously injured. Now, Xuan Long was the one in that state. Of course, the berserker warrior wouldnt just wait to die. Even if his health plummeted, he still tried to fight back. The health bars on both sides dropped down to a quarter each! Both sides were seriously injured at the same time! The berserker warriors backing down! The death knight doesnt intend to retreat at all! The berserker warrior used flash! Unfortunately, its too late. The death knights heavy sword cleaves outwards, and his skill has locked in. It will definitely hit him. Congratulations to Close on taking down First Blood! This final half a second was the most action packed. They were both at critical health, and both left with a sliver of health, but Xuan Long and Close had made very different choices. One was afraid and attempted to escape, while the other was determined to fight to the end. It was a choice that determined the outcome of the fight. Damn it. Xuan Long cursed, If Id known, I wouldve traded my life with his! Cong Yi: Its okay. The game had just started, and it wasnt a big problem. Xuan Long had already left Close at critical health, and although hed given out a First Blood, at least he hadnt lost any lane soldiers or the tower. This loss was within a controllable range. Besides, everyone, including the fans in the live broadcast, all understood: How many players has the great demon king left a psychological shadow on?! Yes. As long as the person he was up against wasnt Close, Xuan Long wouldnt have retreated at that last moment. Dont blame Brother Long. He was already very brave to dare to go up and fight against Close in this wave! It can be predicted that the top-lane players in the league will suffer a lot when they go up against the great demon king when hes in his peak state At such a wonderful moment, Little Lunatic Wei naturally wanted to blow rainbow farts. He really wished he could praise his own captain so much that flowers started blooming. After that, he also offered himself up to help Glorys Mic Explosion King by adding a sentence, Please create a clip of this segment. Youre welcome to use it to make a cell phone ring tone so that you can listen to it ten times a day, or eight times a day. I can guarantee itll leave you feeling great and refreshed, and youll be able to go up in ranks and make it into the national rankings! The three little ones: FTWs reputation Oh, ever since Quiet joined the team, FTWs reputation had long been lost! His mouth was chattering on, but Wei Xiaos eyes were sharp. He caught a glimpse of the light priests figure. Bai Cai saw it too. Ill head over? He was currently following Yue Wenle in the bottom lane, but if Asleep and Cong Yi were attempting to surround Wei Xiao and he didnt go support him, Wei Xiao would get bullied. Wei Xiao: No need. Asleep isnt here. Bai Cai was a little stunned. Wei Xiao explained, Are you silly? Asleep is using the hidden thief. How could Cong Yi expose himself? A hidden thief could enter stealth right from the start of the game. In general, he would maintain a certain distance from his teammates so as to achieve the effect of launching a sneak attack. In fact, Bai Cai had thought of that too, but he was just a little bit slower. He disdained him, What if Cong Yi predicted your prediction? Wei Xiao: Then Ill have predicted that he predicted my prediction. Bai Cai: Yue Wenle: Russian doll talking is banned. Ning Zhehan burst out laughing. As Wei Xiao had expected, although Cong Yi showed himself, he didnt actually come to the jungle zone to engage in a fight with Wei Xiao. Instead, he went around to the bottom lane. Wei Xiao had speculations in his heart about what was going on. He instructed Ning Zhehan, Be careful when you walk along the river. Cong Yis put vision there. Ning Zhehan: Got it! The director shifted the camera towards the bottom lane, where FTW and 3Us 2v2 had left the audience unwilling to even blink. Whats going on? How could my God Yi have separated from Sleep-sleep! What is 3U trying to do? Are the vice-captain and captain fighting? The conjoined twins have split up? Mommy, is the Pajamas CP about to collapse? The optimistic, but slightly anxious fans explained, 3U has to grow, too! Their tactics cant always be the same. They they must have come up with a new idea! The commentators were also very surprised, and carefully analyzed this wave of changes in 3U. For the past two seasons, ever since Asleep and Cong Yi had joined 3U, this team had become an absolute jungle core system. To some extent, they placed even more importance on their jungler than FTW did. When Close was playing jungler, Bai Cai didnt need to follow Close. Firstly, Close was used to going it alone, and Brother Cai was barely able to keep up anyway, so they were unable to play out the effect where one plus one was greater than two; secondly, Yue Wenles marksman wasnt bad at all, and FTW had always had the intention of training him up, so they preferred to have Bai Cai support Yue Wenle. 3U was different. Cong Yi first belonged to Asleep, and then to the team. 3Us haters really detested this point, and felt that the team indulged Asleep too much. They didnt treat Cong Yi like a person, and they didnt pay enough attention to the other teammates. Although these two players had achieved considerable results in the doubles competition, China already had a daddy of the singles competition, and they really didnt want to set up a daddy for the doubles. They were more interested in building up their strength in the team competition! In the first game of the semi-finals, Cong Yi and Asleep had changed their previous conjoined twins state and had separated for once. The commentator spoke, In this game, Sleep God took the hidden thief. When it comes to the hidden thief, its indeed better to act alone. Speaking of which, 3U rarely uses the hidden thief. They must have already been prepared to take it out today. Wen Weis launcher is pretty good, and his cooperation with Cong Yi is also very tacit. FTWs choice of marksman in this game is also relatively novel. The night druid is a talent that was just developed at the beginning of the year. It was very strong when it first went live, but after being adjusted by the game planners, it ended up on the cold bench for half the season. I wonder if God Le can show me a new way of playing the night druid in this game. The commentators chattered on while the director kept the camera fixed on the bottom lane. xiin: sorry, late chapter. computer problems, but it should be fixed now. Chapter 192.2: Sure enough, your daddy is still your daddy! From the perspective given by the holographic projection, these four talents were all very pleasing to the eye. There was no need to talk about the two priests; they were both tall, aloof, and abstinent, with their slender bodies and exquisite eyebrows, which aimed right at the female fans heartsCCnot only did they love them, they could also use them to happily play games and rank up. The druid was of the beastmen race. It had a rough appearance, and the night druids dark property made it closer to the demonic race. Adding on the special effects from the talent skin, and the way it was wearing a cape with a high neckline, it had a very medieval aristocratic appearance. With the little demons everywhere, it seemed stained with the scent of evil. The launcher had a bit of a steam punk style. It was an eccentric dwarf whose gun barrel was thicker than his waist. When it fired a single shot, its furthest range could reach halfway across the map. Yue Wenles positioning was a bit towards the front. This time, with the storm priests support, Yue Wenle had become even more arrogant. He led a whole crowd of demons and swaggered around in front of the launcher. Wen Wei was an old ADC player and understood the essence of staying alive. He stood behind the light priest, looking like a little boy who was going out shopping with his handsome father. They cleared their lanes, and traded attacks. The two sides fought back and forth. The audience was filled with appreciation for the precision involved in the holographic projection, and also sighed emotionally over the professional players skillful positioning The commentator: Quiet and Asleep have run into each other! The director switched scenes instantly, locking in on the bottom jungle zone. The audiences leisurely nerves tensed for a moment as they stared at the two thieves whod met on a narrow road. They werent invading each others jungle zones, nor were they clearing out their own jungle zones. Instead, they were seizing the right time to engage with the ancient creature. One of the points where a jungler controlled the rhythm was through the double dragons. Killing a large dragon provided a buff to the lane soldiers, while killing a small dragon provided the team with a buff. Of course, no matter which one was killed, the five members of the team would enjoy a significant experience bonus! A jungler who could control the dragon perfectly was definitely a lucky star for the team. Asleep and Wei Xiaos jungle clearing rhythm was almost the same, and they even had some of the same ideas, so theyd run head-on into each other in the dragon pit. When the immortal thief and the hidden thief ran into each other, theyd obviously both frozen for 0.1 seconds. After that, the immortal thief began to toss its skills at the other thief Reasonably speaking, the hidden thief wouldnt expose himself, and Wei Xiao shouldnt have been able to see him. Here, Brother Cai had to be praised. Hed spread out his vision ahead of time, and his vision traps had just happened to sense Asleep, revealing his figure! Revealing his figure wasnt the same as breaking the hidden thiefs stealth, so Asleeps skill still had an additional bonus from stealth. Theyre fighting! The fans were extremely delighted. Can this be considered a PK between the strongest junglers in the China competition zone? Yes, yes, the great demon king is in the top lane now, and the little lunatics are fighting over the c-position! I bet on the immortal thief. I can praise the grandmasters thief until it explodes! I bet on the hidden thief. The hidden thiefs a big daddy in the early stages, and the immortal thiefs equipment hasnt all been assembled yet. The Ten Thousand Swords Descend from the Sky is nothing but a decoration before that, dealing no damage at all! Ahhhh, women dont make choices. This old lady bets on everything! Then, little sister, do you want to win or lose? If I want to lose, its still winning. Cant I? Yes, yes, yes, youre beautiful, whatever you say goes. Wei Xiao and Asleeps solo was really too familiar to everyone. Although Wei Xiao had long passed that era where he could pressure Asleep and hammer him into bits, Wei Xiaos win rate was still slightly higher. There were more factors involved in a solo fight in a team competition. For example, there was the terrain, the teams support, and even the rhythm There were too many variables. What needed to be considered wasnt only the players level; at times, there was also a bit of luck involved. Wei Xiao brandished a sword flower, and a white colored rainbow burst out, coating the blade as he stabbed it straight towards the hidden thief. The director really knew his job, and gave a direct face-to-face close up, making the whole audience exclaim, Cool! The sword rushed to the audience. Following the hidden thiefs perspective, the audience could see the sword coming close, as though it would stab in at the next second. The angle changed again. Asleep made use of the speed bonus given by his stealth being broken to skillfully bypass this fatal damage, making it so that his health was only cut down by a quarter. Wei Xiaos mouth curved up slightly. Not bad. The long sword was drawn back, and he used two movement shifts to head straight for Asleeps face. The hidden thief bent over to build up strength, and a dagger suddenly flashed with a dark light, stabbing at the immortal thiefs waist. I said a long time ago that a mans waist cant be injured. Wei Xiaos mouth was bratty even as he operated his character to avoid the damage Asleep dealt. Unfortunately, the director didnt switch to provide close-ups of the players. Otherwise, the die-hard fans wouldve been able to figure out what hed said based on the shape of his mouth. Little Wolf Wei, youre really something! Within two to three seconds, the immortal thief and hidden thief had already exchanged four or five attacks. They were both assassins who dealt a high amount of damage, so they were able to make each other lose health like crazy even if they didnt have any equipment in the early stages. The mid lane was closest to the bottom jungle zone, and Ning Zhehan spoke, Brother Xiao, Ill hold Li Chun down for you! Wei Xiao: Mm. There was really no need to provide support. If Li Chun didnt come, then Asleep would definitely die. The results of the fight there hadnt yet been determined, and unexpectedly, the first outbreak of fresh blood actually happened on the bottom lane. System AnnouncementCC 3U.WW killed FTW.White! The director immediately shifted the camera and showed the bottom half of the canyon to the entire audience. Oh boy While Wei Xiao and Asleep were fighting each other, the 2v2 in the bottom lane had really started fighting heavily. The director set up a replay, and the audience discovered that it was Yue Wenle whod made a move first. The druids main mode of attack depended on his little demons. Hed just managed to create an enhanced bug, and after the enhanced bug bit the enemy, it would leave a paralysis effect. This bug was very steady and accurately stung the launcher. If he didnt go up now, then when else would he? Yue Wenle created more little demons and rushed up to attack. Brother Cai followed up quickly, bumping into the light priests light wall and preventing Yue Wenle from being controlled. Yue Wenle operated several little demons simultaneously and dumped all the damage on the launchers head. He watched and waited for this wave of damage to take away Wen Weis life. Unexpectedly, the light priest blocked in front of the launcher, and a pale green beam fell from the sky. All of the damage dealt was transferred over, landing on the light priest instead. Cong Yis move was too brilliant! Brother Cai sucked in a breath, Retreat! Yue Wenles mouth pursed. They had to retreat. Brother Cai gave him an acceleration, Cong Yis light wall landed again, and the storm priest was already under attack from the launcher. This round of 2v2 had been played out beautifully. The commentators praised them fiercely, Although Brother Cai died, he saved the night druid. Its not a loss! Cong Yis micro operations arent like that of a supports at all. The angle of that gods blessing was really set up from a tricky angle. I think that even 3Us gunner didnt think that he would be able to pick up the damage. Cong Yis personal ability has always been very strong, but he always used to stay by Asleeps side, and it was covered up. The scrolling comments were also discussing it. FTW cant do it. Yue Wenles still letting the game get to him. He looks so white and clean, how can he be so reckless? FTW should change to another marksman! The fans refused to accept this. God Les retreat was very timely, okay? Yeah, his enhanced bug latched onto the launcher. Hed be an idiot not to go up and attack. Our reckless god wont carry the blame for this wave. We can only blame Cong Yi for being too excellent. Doesnt Brother Cai seem to be a little flustered? Previous poster, you dont know how to play the storm priest, right? A storm priest that doesnt have its ultimate move yet is nothing but a piece of trash. So, thats why Yue Wenle was too reckless. He knew that his familys support isnt in its strong stages, yet he still rushed up and offered himself up to die. They took turns making verbal attacks; the haters remarks only need to be mentioned briefly before being skipped over. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed 3U.Sleep. While the camera locked on the bottom lane, the fight between Wei Xiao and Asleep had also reached a conclusion. The immortal thief killed the hidden thief. Although he himself was also left at critical health, his elegant posture as he slowly landed still surprised the audience. Thats too damned handsome! Are there any cosplayers doing the immortal thief? I could fall for this kind of man! Take a look at Xiaoxiao, wouldnt it be great to have him cosplay? Um. A little bandit immortal? Oh, my nosebleed! In this first wave, FTW took down three kills, while 3U also took down one kill. At the same time, they managed to shave off half of the bottom lanes first towers health. Yue Wenles mostly empty HP bar meant that he could only return back to the base and recover. As soon as he landed at the crystal, Lu Feng pressed on the transmit button and said, Switch lanes. Yue Wenle: Okay. The golden light from Closes teleportation had only just stopped when the death knight switched to its light form. After using a flexible movement skill, he burst out and arrived at 3Us bottom lane tower. Cong Yi, whose cast bar was in the middle of loading, felt his heart leap. The death knights longsword stabbed out, and the light priest who only had a fifth of its health left was sent back to the fountain. Cong Yi: Great. He didnt have to bother with casting anything. The venue exploded, Ahhhhhh, he went under the tower to forcibly get the kill! The great demon kings so handsome he split the heavens! Sure enough, your daddy is still your daddy! Chapter 193.1: Quiets strength is enough to aim for the globals! It wasnt just the audience; Brother Cai also wanted to call out, daddy. Hed just died one step ago, and now Close had come up and gotten revenge for him. The great demon king was too reliable! Brother Cais eyes were coated with tears. Captain! Wei Xiao was on alert. Dont fall for him, youll get nothing. Bai Cai: Be a little more careful, Wei Little Xiao, youre really treating him as if Glorys Mic Explosion King will act like a human! Well fine, no one will pay any heed to Wei Xiaos mouth even if this was cut into a clip. Beneath the stage, Tang Chen sighed emotionally. We both play in the top lane, but his play is more detailed. Lu Fengs personal operation level is really strong. He was already very excellent when he played jungler, and now that hes in the top lane, his strengths have been enhanced, and hes made up for his weaknesses. Chen Feng stared at the competition taking place on the stage. These years have really wronged him. He was obviously not suited to playing jungler, but hed played it for so many years. He was obviously more free when he was in the top lane, but hed sacrificed himself for the sake of the team. No wonder hed insisted on signing Wei Xiao to their team no matter what, back when hed seen him two years ago. This little lunatic was really the one who was most suited to playing jungler. FTW began a wave of frenzied counterattacks. After the immortal thief rose up in the mid and late periods of the game, Wei Xiao went around ganking everywhere. As soon as he showed up, someone elses head would definitely fly. Close and Yue Wenle changed lanes. When he went down to the bottom lane, the tower had lost half of its health because of Brother Cais death and Yue Wenles low health. But after Close killed Cong Yi, 3U was never able to touch the bottom lanes outer tower again. This half health defense tower was originally the one that was in the most precarious condition, but now it had become the strongest fortress. Cong Yi: Dont go up and smash forcibly against it. Go and gank the top lane. Instead of wasting three people to catch a Close who they may not be able to kill, it was better to try to take down the marksman and mid-laner with whom they had higher success rates. Asleep supported the top lane. Hed just beat out a set of skills on Yue Wenle when Brother Cai used an ultra-long distance gust of wind, pulling over the immortal thief who was still making his way over via the river. Wei Xiao landed, and ten thousand swords fell from the sky! Cong Yi quickly used his ultimate move, but unfortunately, the skill could only save one person. Wen Wei was seriously injured and lost his ability to participate in the fight. Yue Wenles positioning was towards the front. He actually tossed out a bug that latched onto Wen Wei and bit down. Wen Wei shot at and killed the insect, but unexpectedly, it was a poison bug, and the mucus that splashed out after it exploded was enough to kill him! Yue Wenle killed Wen Wei. Wei Xiao complimented him unceremoniously, Nice! The fight was still going on. Although there was only Asleep and Cong Yi left, the two of them showed no intention of retreating. Asleep focused on Yue Wenle, pouncing on him stealthily. Although they couldnt see his position, they were still able to guess who he was planning to attack with their eyes closed. So, Brother Cais protection and Wei Xiaos skills all slammed over. Brother Sleep was worthy of being a top jungler in the China competition zone as his positioning was really inspired. From the moment Wei Xiao stepped forward, hed attacked half a second before Brother Cais shield could land and assassinated Yue Wenle, who was at critical health. After attacking, the hidden thief had exposed his figure. Wei Xiao continued moving forward, his hand rising to attack How could Cong Yi let him kill Asleep however he liked? A light wall landed in front of Asleep and forced Wei Xiao to retreat. Brother Cai continued giving Wei Xiao a speed buff. The immortal thief had already been moving at a high speed and coupled with the flying buff from the storm priest, his body moved like a flash of white light which quickly blocked Asleeps path. Cong Yi: Kill him. Asleep tossed out his skills, vowing to fight with Wei Xiao to the death. In this instant, Brother Cai gave up on giving Wei Xiao a speed buff. Instead, he tossed all of his skills on him, shouting in their team chat, Old Wei, get him! Wei Xiao: Dont worry. His voice landed, and he used a movement skill to retreat, pulling away from the hidden thief. The hidden thiefs dagger attack combo was a tracking skill. Forget the fact that Wei Xiao had only retreated two body lengths, even if hed retreated four body lengths, the skills would have still been able to catch up. Now, things were up to Brother Cai. The tracking skill would stop once it touched an enemy. Brother Cai rushed up to take all the damage in Wei Xiaos stead. The priests talents had never been the type of support with tough skin and thick flesh, and Brother Cais health wasnt at a healthy level from the earlier fight. Now, he took all of the hidden thiefs damage and instantly toppled to the ground! This group fight was really magnificent. 3U tried to catch Yue Wenle, but their launcher was sent away by Yue Wenle instead. Seeing that FTWs situation had become a 3v2, 3Us doubles team hadnt been afraid and rushed up to take down Yue Wenle, even wanting to kill Wei Xiao. Brother Cais storm priest had also been played out to extremes. Although he couldnt heal his teammates, he had put his body on the line and protected a DPS position. His death hadnt been a loss! In just a dozen or so seconds, the battle situation had changed again to become 3Us two against one. Was Wei Xiao done for? The immortal thief was at critical health, the hidden thief was at half health, and the light priest had taken heavy damage. What was the result? System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed 3U.Sleep. FTW.Quiet killed 3U.Night. FTW.Quiet double kill! The result was that the immortal thief killed the two of them with critical health and took down two kills! It wasnt surprising that the arena exploded. The audience applauded heatedly as they watched the holographic projection, to the point where even their palms grew red! Too exciting! That last wave was all too clear through the holographic imagery. It was too tense, too bloody, and it made their pulses race! Their skills, their health All of the three people whod fallen to the ground of the canyon had no intention to retreat. They were all filled with fighting spirit. The cooperation between Asleep and Cong Yi was absolute, the light priests light wall forcing the immortal thief to move, right towards where Asleeps dagger was waiting. Wei Xiao would either be controlled by Cong Yi or killed by the hidden thief. How he chose all depended on his game consciousness during that single zero point something second. The immortal priest had moved like a fish in water, avoiding the light priests control and taking the hidden thiefs attack! The commentator couldnt help shouting out, Beautiful! It was indeed too wonderful. If Wei Xiao had hesitated for just a moment and ended up controlled by the light priest, then the immortal thief wouldve gone too far. Now, it looked like hed taken the hidden thiefs attack, but a normal attack without any enhancement had a limit on how much damage it could deal. At the very most, he would be left seriously injured, but not killed. As long as he was alive, as long as he wasnt controlled, then Its another ten thousand swords falling from the sky! Quiet just used the little soldiers to cut his cooldowns! That worked out just right. If it wasnt for the fact that Im watching this live, I would suspect that this brat is hacking. To be honest Quiets strength is enough to aim for the globals! Please stop exaggerating! Q Cub, youre still young, you have a long future ahead of you! After the fight at the top lane ended, the immortal thief remained the last one standing, with just a sliver of health left. Old experts could see at a glance that FTWs win was stable for this match. Just now, Asleep and Cong Yis cooperation had been very wonderful. If Wei Xiao had made even the slightest error, then it wouldve become a turning point for 3U. Unfortunately, Wei Xiao had held steady and maintained FTWs rhythm. 3Us shortfalls became more obvious in the middle and late stages of the game. The hidden thief talent had one fatal point: It was very fierce in the early stage, but useless in the late stages. When the game reached around 30 minutes, the hidden thief was basically equivalent to a super soldierCCoh, maybe not even as powerful as a super soldier, since they could at least smash at the towers. Asleep was unable to play out a significant role, while Wen Wei and Li Chun were having trouble even staying alive under the great demon kings gaze. How could they deal any DPS? 38 minutes later, the night druids little demons extinguished 3Us resurrection crystal. FTW won the first small match! The effect of the crystal exploding was also shown in the holographic projection. The audience was very excited by this technology, stimulated until their blood was boiling. Some girls even reached out to try and touch the cracked red crystal. It was difficult to distinguish whether the special effects in front of them were a product of reality or fantasy. The coaches came onstage, and the second round of BP soon began. In a BO5 game, the rest period took place after the third match. FTWs side was naturally jubilant, but Chen Feng couldnt refrain from pouring cold water over them. 3U was obviously trying new tactics. Stay steady. Wei Xiao: We also have secret weapons. Chen Feng stared at him. Wei Xiao made a zipper motion over his mouth. Its confidential, confidential. If Chen Feng hadnt been afraid of getting expelled from the arena, he wouldve conked him on the head a long time ago! 3Us side was much quieter. Coach Leng spoke in a deep voice, The hidden thief still has its drawbacks. Asleep didnt speak. Wen Wei was full of apologies. Its that I didnt play well. Cong Yi spoke, When faced with Close and Quiet, any c-position will feel pressure. Coach Lengs gaze fell on Asleeps body. Dont be anxious. We really need more tactics. Their line-up for the first match had indeed been one that 3U had been training up recently. The hidden thiefs ability to fight on its own had been played out to good effect during training matches. It was just, when faced with a team like FTW with a strong jungler and top-laner, they were still lacking a bit of a spark. However, Leng Feng was strongly in favor of Asleep making a change. In the previous season, 3Us tactics had become more and more solidified, with Asleep as more and more of their core. They were really able to obtain good results with this, but it also made them easy to target. Even if they didnt meet FTW in the semi-finals, they wouldnt have been able to get past TPT. Fu Li was too good at restraining teams who had routines that were set in stone. For TPT, a team like 3U just looked like a little toddler who was still wearing diapers and could be toyed with until they went into seclusion. In this match, 3U had first choice in banning heroes. After they banned a talent, they also had the first priority in picking a talent. FTW hadnt yet had a chance to ban the berserker thief. Leng Feng asked, Take it? Asleep: Elemental. Cong Yis eyebrows raised up slightly. Leng Feng thought it over. If we let the berserker thief out now, Wei Xiao wont be polite with it. It was rare, but Asleep spoke again, Elemental. Leng Feng looked at Cong Yi. Cong Yi: Okay. The player in the first position just happened to be Cong Yi. Cong Yi locked in the elemental shaman. Chapter 193.2: How could the difference between them be so big?! FTW could naturally see 3Us selection. Wei Xiao: 3Us smart, they didnt fall for it. Theyd let out the berserker thief and elemental shaman just to try and lure 3U to take one and fight for the other. It was reasonable to say that 3U was very attached to the berserker thief. In a situation where they only had one spot with which to choose talents, they would give priority to the berserker thief. Unexpectedly, 3Us first choice was for their support position, and they won the elemental shaman. Chen Feng: The berserker thiefs worth more than the elemental shaman. Brother Cai was eager. In that case, Ill lock in the berserker thief? Chen Feng: Yes. Wei Xiao saw through him with a glance. What the hell are you scared of? Bai Cai was righteous. Im just scared! My elemental shaman isnt as good as Cong Yis! Wei Xiao: Bai Cais mood was 10,000 times better now that he didnt have to use the elemental shaman. Wei Xiao tilted his head and stared at Caicai. Bai Cai: ! Wei Xiao didnt make a sound, but his gaze said it all: Youre very much in need of a friendly beating, Brother Vegetable. Brother Cai shuddered with fear. But he couldnt be concerned about this now! Hed scrape by this one time, and maybe be able to continue on like this for a lifetime! It could be seen from the line-up for the second match that 3U was ready to fight back. They had the elemental shaman for protection, and the wind storm thief made a powerful appearance. Wen Wei and Li Chun took c-position talents with relatively higher self-preservation ability, and Xuan Long in the top lane took the divine warrior, preparing to dodge and survive even if he couldnt fight and win! The 3U fans were relieved. Theyre back, theyre back, my Pajamas CP is stable. This is how it should be! Why would you guys split up? When fighting against FTW, you should avoid fighting head on and gank like crazy. Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan are absolutely the weak points in the team. Dont look down on them, okay? Did my God Les number one ADC position come out of nowhere? Ha, ha. Did you forget about how your God Le was beaten into seclusion by Asleep last year? So what? Our FTW took the championship! Without Closes crazy power, would your God Le be able to win the championship? Last year was our Leles first season! The players all entered the canyon while the fans quarreled. In this game, Brother Cai had gotten his own favorite heroCCthe holy priest. Wei Xiao: Follow Old Yue. Bai Cai was in a good mood. Kay. Wen Wei was using the berserker thief, Lu Feng had taken the berserker warrior that Xuan Long had taken in the previous game, Ning Zhehan had chosen the immortal warlock because of Li Chuns spirit mage, and Yue Wenle in the bottom lane and Wen Wei had taken the gun launcher and storm hunter to duel with respectively. It was absolutely necessary to enter the other teams jungle zone when playing the berserker thief. Otherwise, it would be a waste of the talents early stage advantages. Wei Xiao didnt ask Brother Cai to follow him because he was preparing to enter the top lane jungle zone. Since the captain was on the top lane, he would be able to come and support him in time if he was exposed. Unexpectedly, 3Us top jungle zone was quiet. Not only were Cong Yi and Asleep missing, they hadnt even tried to put in any vision. Wei Xiao immediately snatched up the red daddy even as he gave instructions to his team, Be careful. 3U had obviously given up the top jungle zone, so they must have gone to mess with their bottom jungle zone. This exchange of jungle resources was also a normal way to start the match. Bai Cai tentatively let out a skill towards the jungle zone and bumped into Cong Yis vision trap. Bai Cai: Theyre both there! Wei Xiao glanced at the minimap and said, Let it go. Bai Cai: Okay! The commentators analyzed, In this wave, FTWs suffered a loss. Quiets jungle clearing speed is obviously a bit slower than Asleep, while Bai Cai and Yue Wenle are worried about someone emerging from the jungle zone and dont dare to suppress Wen Wei like crazy. By the time Asleep and Cong Yi finish with the jungle creeps, no matter whether they go to support the bottom lane or gank the mid-lane, FTW will still suffer a bloody loss. At first glance, its true that FTWs start to this game isnt good. But the problem is, Close Without waiting for the commentator to finish, a fight had already broken out in the top lane. After finishing with the red daddy and the stone man, Wei Xiao gave up the three wolves and headed straight for Xuan Long. Xuan Long was still chattering on in the team chat, Hurry up, you guys, give Yue Wenle some pressure, and force Quiet to go provide support holy shit! There was no way for him not to curse, because hed just been locked in by the berserker thiefs scythe! The divine warrior layered buffs on himself, thinking that he wouldnt just die under the berserker thiefs scythe just like that. Wei Xiao had only unlocked two skills and couldnt jump back and forth even if his scythe had locked in on a player. He could only pull the locked target closer to him. Xuan Long was overjoyed in his heart and said, Laozi wont die. You guys dont have to come. As soon as his words fell, the berserker warriors attack smashed into his body. Xuan Long: ! Theyd both played the berserker warrior, but how could the difference between them be so big?! The divine warrior that had been shot up into the sky now provided the berserker thief with an opportunity to DPS brainlessly. Xuan Long was already powerless by the time the berserker warriors Bold and Resolute landed. Laozis going to f*cking send out First Blood again! Everyone in 3U: Cong Yi added salt to the injury. At least you gave First Blood to a different person. In the last match, it was Close. In this match, it was Quiet. Xuan Long was really scared of his vice-captains cold jokes! But some people just had to support him. Ha. Other than their Captain Sleep, there was no one else who would do this! Had it not been for the fact that he knew Asleeps characterCCthis ha was really a sound indicating laughterCCthen Xuan Long would start suspecting that Asleep was mocking him. Even if he was such a noob that he could indeed be ridiculed. At this time, the director gave the 3U members a camera shot, and the fans hearts, which had originally jumped up to their throats, fell back down slightly. Brother Longs in good condition. He hasnt collapsed. Did my Sleep-sleep laugh? It must be that God Yis telling cold jokes again! A new fan was curious and interjected, Cold joke? Have you never listened to Glorys Mic Explosion King? Come on, come on, Ill send you the link. Hurry and go experience it for yourself. 3U branded cold jokes with Sleep God laughing ha, ha. Fellow sisters quickly go and ship it, its super sweet! Even though, even if, Im a man. Little brothers, go quickly. Youll be the most handsome little brother in the world after you see it. The straight men were dazed from watching this. Are the little fairy girls all so fierce these days 3U was indeed not in a panic. Xuan Long had sent himself up to die in the top lane, but in the bottom lane, they would never let go of Yue Wenle and Bai Cai! While they spoke, Asleep finished clearing the jungle. Making use of the elemental shamans acceleration totem, he approached Yue Wenle like the wind. Brother Cai had started preparing a long time ago and came back to his senses in time to use a bubble tune. Cong Yi had finished creating his purification totem a long time ago, and as the bubble tune flew towards Asleeps body, Asleep had 0.3 seconds of purification. The commentator: Beautiful! Asleep didnt get controlled! The timing of this purification totem is absolutely perfect. Cong Yi is really worthy of being the number one elemental shaman in the China competition zone! Asleeps chasing wind has bypassed the holy priest, taking him straight to Yue Wenle. The gun launcher doesnt have its ultimate move, and its scattered shot isnt enough. He cant hit the wind thief. The scene was even more exciting through the holographic projection. The wind thief was a king who controlled the wind, sending out a wind blade that sliced through the air, cutting up the surrounding space and making the gun launcher dizzy. Enhanced basic attacks stabbed over, one after another, and Yue Wenles health dropped to less than half in an instant. Brother Cai gave Yue Wenle a heal, but unfortunately, 3Us storm hunter stepped on raindrops and came over. There were two whizzing sounds as two rain arrows shot out and landed on Yue Wenles head. Asleep used another chasing wind, and his wind blade pierced the launchers chest, sending him back home. Bai Cai sucked in a breath and turned to run. Unfortunately, Cong Yi used up half of his own health to create a control totem, trapping the holy priest by its legs. Brother Cai: System AnnouncementCC 3U.Sleep killed FTW.Le. 3U.Sleep killed FTW.White. In the top lane, Wei Xiao had taken First Blood, but in the bottom lane, Asleep had taken a double kill. In the second game of the semi-finals, 3U had finally gotten even! Wei Xiao didnt click to teleport over. On one hand, 3Us three people were all in a good state, and on the other hand, heroes revived quickly in the early stage of the game. Yue Wenle would be back in the game soon, and if he went over now, hed lose experience from both sides. He took advantage of the time while Asleep was in the bottom zone to kill the ancient creature that had just spawned with Lu Feng, forcibly increasing experience and gold for the whole team. Wei Xiao: Old Bai, you up for it? Bai Cai: Wei Xiao: Our Lele needs you. Bai Cais mouth twitched. Shut up! Wei Xiao grinned like a fox and didnt say anything else. Wei Xiao had constantly been messing with Yue Wenle prior to the semi-finals. The new solo mode had made things more convenient. Wei Xiao first let Yue Wenle experience the happiness of being tortured and killed by 100 different heroes, then let him enjoy the happiness of being cut to death by 15 thieves, and finally, let him experience being smeared into the ground by the heroes he himself was famous for This was the so-called, if you dont break from the abuse, then you will break out from the abuse. Yue Wenle was obviously the latter. If Wei Xiao didnt beat him up until he cowered, then he would have managed to beat him up until he was even more fierce! When it came to God Le Wei Xiao wasnt worried. Although the training time was a little short, and the effect wasnt yet very stable, as long as the training continued, FTW would definitely have the number one ADC. Wei Xiao was more concerned about Brother Cai. If FTW focused on its jungler core, Brother Cai wouldnt have any problems. The White Cabbage that followed Wei Xiao had triple his usual strength and wasnt afraid of anyone. But the problem was, Yue Wenle needed Bai Cai more. The author has something to say: Brother Cai: Being forced to remarry [shut up] xiin: i find it cute that Cong Yi makes bad jokes and that Asleep laughs at them. Chapter 194.1: Wei Xiao: You cant only have me in your eyes. Asleep and Cong Yis pace picked up. The Asleep who had Cong Yi following him in the previous game was now like an entirely different person. A talent like the hidden thief, who snuck around in the dark, really didnt suit Brother Sleep. Dont judge based on how he was quiet and liked to sleep in real life, because he was an explosive player in the canyon. Lying in wait and looking for opportunities didnt suit him. Core jungler talents that led the rhythm of the game, like the berserker thief and the immortal thief, were the ones that suited him best. After killing Bai Cai and Yue Wenle in the bottom lane, Asleep immediately rushed to the mid-lane with the elemental shamans acceleration totem, taking away Ning Zhehans life before Wei Xiao could arrive. Little Nings immortal warlock wasnt very stable. It had a very high upper limit, but also a very low lower limit. When he was in a good state, he was super amazing, and when he was in a bad state, his performance was super awful. When going up against Asleep, Ning Zhehan was nervous all the way to the core of his heart, so his state was really average. By the time Wei Xiao arrived at the mid-lane, Little Ning was already long gone. The wind thief and the elemental shaman were fearlessly clearing out the lane soldiers. Wei Xiao: Ying. Everyone in the team thought Wei Xiao was acting spoiled towards the captain, but unexpectedly, his next sentence was, Brother Cai~ Brother Cai: ! F*ck, Little Lunatic Wei, dont mess around with me. Wei Xiao: FTW needs you. Only then did Bai Cai let out a breath of relief. For better or worse, this beast hadnt come up with a I need you. As it turned out, Brother Cais breath of relief had come too soon. Wei Xiaos next sentence was, You cant only have me in your eyes. Bai Cai: Im not, I didnt, Captain, listen to me explain! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Close killed 3U.Dragon. Xuan Long: Ahhhhh, I cant hold on anymore, you guys need to hurry up and take control of the pace! Brother Cai was just as scared as Brother Long; it was over, he kept having the feeling that while Xuan Long died in the canyon, the one whod died in society would be the vegetable stalk that was him! This was a tough game for FTW. Not to mention the experts; even the fans could see it. Our FTW has quite a lot of problems. Although this sense of problematic places has lessened ever since Quiet joined the team, its still there. It wasnt obvious when they played a game that was to their advantage, but once theyre targeted and bitten at, their weaknesses are evident. This was also a concern that the FTW coaching team had. Why had Chen Feng hoped that they wouldnt draw 3U in the semi-finals? It was because the combination of Asleep and Cong Yi was a godly level restraint against FTWs weaknesses. Wei Xiao and Lu Feng had no problems with their cooperation. Close didnt need to cooperate as much with his teammates after going to the top lane, so that feeling of disjointedness that had troubled FTW for a long time had lessened a lot. Additionally, Wei Xiao was a little expert at driving the pace and could lead his own rhythm until they were all flying, covering up their weaknesses even more tightly. Theyd covered it up, but it wasnt eradicated. During this time, Yue Wenles growth had been visible to the naked eye. As a coach, Chen Feng could see this more clearly than anyone else. How to make a team of five players well-integrated and harmonious as a whole was the most important topic at hand. Wei Xiao was working hard, and Chen Feng was trying his best to cooperate with him. At the same time, he was looking forward to seeing the results. Asleep and Cong Yi ganked FTWs mid and bottom lanes until they exploded. Wei Xiao was always half a beat late. This was the advantage of having an immortal level support. As soon as Cong Yi sensed Wei Xiaos position, Asleep would immediately head in another direction and attack another lane. Although everyone was clear in their hearts about not messing with Close, there were still three places to mess around in between the mid lane, bottom lane, and jungle zones, while Wei Xiao was only one person. There were solutions to this problem. One would be to have Brother Cai follow Wei Xiao around. Brother Cai could provide a wave of anti-reconnaissance and directly gank Asleep until he collapsed. Another plan would be to have Brother Cai and Yue Wenle hole up against Asleeps frenzied assaults, waiting until Wei Xiao could arrive to provide support and counter attack. The former was simple. Brother Cai and Wei Xiaos cooperation was absolutely enough for them to pressure Asleep and Cong Yi to death. However, Wei Xiao didnt want to do this. He would rather use a small defeat in one of the matches of their game in exchange for Bai Cai and Yue Wenles growth. No special training was more effective than training during a real competition. If FTW lost to 3U here, then it meant that they didnt have the strength to make claims on the championship title. Instead of covering up the problem, it was better to tear it open directly, exposing themselves bloodily under the sun so that they could accelerate the healing process! Wei Xiao had discussed this with Lu Feng prior to the competition. Or, it could be said that Wei Xiao had to talk to his boyfriend about all matters, even those only as big as a sesame seed. Especially after they banned sex; without the bout of exercise before sleeping, Wei Xiao might die if he didnt talk. Lu Feng didnt talk much, but he was a great listener, and he liked to listen. Wei Xiao spoke to him about the situation in the team, talked to him about Little Ning, about Brother Cai, and about Yue Wenle. He would even talk about himself. It had to be admitted that Wei Xiao had a pair of extremely sharp eyes and insight that went far beyond his current age. He was accurate when judging people, and he was very clear about reading people. What was even rarer was that he always had a belly full of wonderful moves. Initially, Lu Feng was focused on his voice, listening to his light tone and watching his attractive appearance. Later on the more he listened, the more serious he became. Wei Xiaos personal experience had let Lu Feng sense somethingCC A person who could cooperate with others really had to pay out a lot behind the scenes. How was it some sort of affinity that went against the heavens? How was it an innate insight? Wasnt it that he saw a lot, thought a lot, and tried to learn a lot? Wei Xiao asked Lu Feng, Is it okay if I let it go when Asleep and Cong Yi go to gank the bottom lane? Lu Feng understood what he was trying to say. Arent you afraid that their mentality will collapse? Wei Xiaos eyes curved. Captain, youre underestimating them. At the time, Lu Feng had been stunned for a moment. CCIt wasnt that he underestimated them. It was that he didnt trust them. Perhaps this was the difference between him and Wei Xiao. The longer the game dragged on, the higher Asleeps farm became. His equipment became better, and his state had also reached the peak. He became even crazier when he went to gank his opponents. Even without mentioning Ning Zhehan in the mid-lane, the bottom lane with Yue Wenle and Bai Cai had already become a disaster zone. Brother Cai had sweat all over his forehead as Yue Wenle became more and more eager to fight. After dying three times in a row, Brother Cai couldnt hold back anymore. Old Yue, you f*ck! He hadnt yet finished his words when the elemental shamans totem inserted itself by Yue Wenles body. Yue Wenle didnt retreat. Instead, he used a set of skills and threw them into Asleeps face like his life depended on it. Brother Cai was anxious enough to die. I cant heal you! Yue Wenles health plummeted sharply as Asleep instantly attacked him until he was seriously injured. Bai Cai had never felt that the holy priest was so powerless before. Hed played the holy priest for years, but this was the first time hed felt that Glorys super healer didnt have enough heals! Hed already tossed out all his skills, giving out both shields and healing, but he was unable to keep Yue Wenle alive. The two of them fell again, and Brother Cai exploded, Cant you hide when you see Asleep Wei Xiao interrupted his words, Not bad, Old Yue. If there hadnt been a difference in farm just now, Asleep would be nothing but a soul beneath your arrows. Bai Cai fell into a daze. Wei Xiao continued, Dont panic! Wait until our Brother Le starts rising up. By then, ten Asleeps wouldnt be enough for you to shoot down. The data on the farm panel was displayed very clearly. The Yue Wenle whod died so many times was a full 3000 gold behind Asleep in farm. That was equivalent to half of a fully finished piece of equipment. A fully finished piece of equipment added a stunning amount of stats to a hero. Yue Wenle was able to seriously hurt Asleep despite such a wide gap, which was enough to show how delicate and detailed hed been with his micro-operations. Bai Cais palms were sweaty, and the expression on his face grew somber for once. As a person whod gotten used to being a salted fish, hed already forgotten how to fight hard. Hed constantly been complaining about Yue Wenle, always feeling that he was reckless, and that hed lost his mind. He felt that he didnt retreat when he should. But Yue Wenle had already done the most he could. If hed only helped him control Asleep and Cong Yi a little more or had a little bit more healing or helped him take even a little of the damage, the situation wouldnt be like how it was now. It was very likely that Yue Wenle wouldve been able to counterattack and kill Asleep and Cong Yi despite a 3000 gold difference in farm! The sweat on Bai Cais forehead slid down, and he felt the importance of his position for the first time. This was a game where FTW was unable to turn the tables. There were indeed some ways to target the great demon king. It was impossible for a fair e-sports game not to have a system of balance and restraints. Otherwise, FTW wouldnt have been on the decline for three full years. The easiest way to restrain Close was for the other side to snowball their farm. The results of Asleep and Cong Yis frenzied slaughter was this: Asleeps farm was far higher than Closes. During the first half the game, they were unable to catch and kill Close, but towards the middle and later stages of the game, Asleep, Cong Yi, and Xuan Long surrounded Close to take him down. Let alone Close, even an immortal wouldnt have been able to escape. Even if your two fists could fight against four hands, it was still difficult to win against six hands. Defeat! FTW lost the second match of the BO5. There were sounds of cheering, encouragement, and discussion throughout the arena. Some of the fans were in a panic, Its over, its over, how can FTW overcome this hurdle? F*ck, Im flustered. FTW cant lose! If they lose today, will the great demon king have to fight on his own again this season? QAQ. No, no, no, FTW will definitely rush their way into the global finals this year. Of course, there were also some rational fans. What the hell are you howling for? There is no such thing as a team without any weaknesses. If theres a problem, then fix it. Regardless of whether its Little Ning or Yue Wenle, both of them are still young. Cant you give them some time? I think its great. In the past, FTW used to only rely on Close, and recently, they started to become a little reliant on Quiet. Please, this is a team game. All five people should stand up on their own, okay! Thats right! What we want is to see five gods in FTW, not just the great demon king on his own! Chapter 194.2: Bai Cai: I hate you bold and fearless people the most! The commentators certainly wouldnt say that there was a problem with FTW. They only focused on praising the winning team. Competitions where there were ups and downs were more lively. 3U wasnt a weak team, and especially when it came to Cong Yis elemental shaman, it was really a hero that was worth being sent into the ban position. Chen Feng came up on stage and glanced at the three little ones. Ning Zhehan was a little flustered, but this brats moods came and went quickly. Wei Xiao would be able to get his spirits back up with just a few playful words. Although Yue Wenle had been ganked throughout the whole game, there was no problem with his mental state. He was eagerly looking forward to the start of the next game. But Bai Cai Chen Feng shifted his gaze away and stared at Wei Xiaos computer screen. Have Brother Cai follow you in the next game? Wei Xiao tilted his head to look at Bai Cai. Brother Cai? Bai Cais tensely strung heart relaxed a little bit, and he was just about to speak Wei Xiao: Brother Cai says that he doesnt want to follow me. Bai Cai: ??? Chen Feng: Okay. Bai Cai: ??? Yue Wenle: I want to use the frost hunter in this game. Chen Feng: Brother Cai will use the elemental shaman, then. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao: Okay. Thatll also free up a ban position. Caicai, you can do it! Bai Cai: . I can do your daddy! What did it mean to catch the white cabbage and put it up on the shelf? Theyd be live broadcasting it now for everyone. The third match began. Both sides had already played for an hour and a half, and the score was even. No matter who won this game, it would be the match point. Would it be FTW who preemptively took two points, or would 3U snatch up the advantage from behind? It all depended on this game! The BP ended. Both sides had traded support heroes. Because FTW had first pick, theyd locked in the elemental shaman directly, while Cong Yi took the holy priest that Bai Cai had used in the previous game. Wei Xiao took the blood thief, and Lu Feng locked in the blood warrior. The audience couldnt help but scream shrilly when they saw these two choices. Neither the blood thief nor the blood warrior were strong heroes in the current version of the game, but there was a small easter egg that could be triggered when both talents were used at the same time. In the backstory for the talents, the blood thief had been reborn again because of the blood warrior, so they had a linked skillCClife sharing. Of course, the symbolism of this small skill was greater than its actual usefulness. This skill could only be used when both sides health was greater than 60%, and it had to be used during a non-combat state. It was a little link that didnt break the balance of the game, but it left the audience with a mouth full of sugar. I dont care, even if FTW loses this game, Ive still managed to enjoy my ship! F*ck, fellow sister upstairs, we want to enjoy pure sugar. Dont insert blades into it on your own! Sugar has to be enjoyed, and the competition has to be won. Go, go, go FTW! Wei Xiao couldnt help running his mouth, My lord, I have been waiting for you. This was what the blood raven thief said to the blood warrior prior to his death in the games backstory film. The three little ones felt their goosebumps jump straight out, and they shivered instantly. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao tilted his head to look at him. My lord? Lu Feng: Shut up. Wei Xiao laughed cheekily, then spoke through time and space to Glorys Mic Explosion King again, Dont broadcast the segment where my general told me to shut up! It would be strange if it wasnt broadcast, you little lunatic with all your plays! The third game of a BO5 would start to test the overall quality of the professional players. In the first game, players were in their most relaxed state. They might win with a bang or lose the game with their overconfidence. The second game was still alright, because the first game acted as a warm-up. This was usually the most splendid game in the BO5, where both sides would fight desperately in a way where either I live or you die. But once it reached the third match, the high level of concentration and focus that had lasted for an hour and a half would weaken, and the players feelings about the competition would become complicated. Their emotions might get heavier, and they might start to lose their sense of self or even feel depressed. FTWs side was pretty good, but 3Us side was feeling some slight fatigue. This couldnt be judged based on how theyd won the second game. They hadnt felt any less pressure on their minds. Wen Wei, whod struggled with all his might to suppress Yue Wenle, now felt a little flustered Pressuring the mid and bottom lanes was 3Us magic weapon that they used to limit Close. Once this magic weapon failed, the situation would become difficult. In this game, Asleep and Cong Yi remained together. One stood in front, with one following behind tightly. Wei Xiao was still on his own, while Brother Cai followed behind Yue Wenles figure. The commentators: We rarely see Brother Cais elemental shaman. He only took it for one game in the previous season, but he played it really well. Brother Cais support position has always been very stable. Last year, he followed Close and fought from the South to the North, showing quite a few brilliant plays. I heard that Quiet and Bai Cai are old partners, but we didnt see them cooperate together today. Its said that theyre old partners, but thats from their youth training camp days. When it comes to cooperation, Bai Cai and Yue Wenle have been together for a bit longer. Thats true The commentators only spoke about the surface situation and were very polite, but the fans understood the implications. Whats with this! The grandmaster is Cacais soul, okay! The commentators have gotten too unrestrained with their boasting. Brother Cais support is very stable? Thats a zen type salted fish support who is afraid of making mistakes! Seriously speaking, during this regular season, I only started noticing Brother Cais existence after he went off with Quiet FTWs a little off target. Wei Xiaos obviously a jungler core, and Bai Cais particularly sticky towards him. Does tearing these two apart even make sense? They would understand very soon: It made sense. The aggrieved feeling carried over from the previous game to the current game. Yue Wenles frost hunter acted inhuman right from the start of the game, taking advantage of the time when Asleep was clearing out the jungle to suppress Wen Wei like crazy. Wen Wei was really miserable. He was very aggrieved about having to fight one against two, and he even had to encounter Yue Wenles bullying. He lost two lane soldiers in a row and couldnt hold back anymore. Yue Wenles lost all reason, come and get him! Cong Yi: Right away. It wasnt only Wen Wei who felt this way. The commentators, the audience, and even Bai Cai thought so. Damn it Brother Cai was about to go crazy from creating totems in order to protect Yue Wenle. Wei Xiao provided them with vision. Asleeps heading over. Bai Cais heart leapt up. He was just about to suggest that Yue Wenle come back to his senses, but unexpectedly, the frost hunter moved extremely quickly, shooting out an ice arrow to decrease his opponents speed even as he pulled away from Asleep in the blink of an eye. Wei Xiao saw this series of moves through the minimap. Beautiful! Brother Cai was stunned for a brief moment before the attack totem in his hands arrived at Yue Wenles side in the nick of time. Yue Wenle was calm and quiet even as his ice arrows whizzed over towards Asleeps body. Cong Yi healed Asleep, pulling the health hed lost back up again. The frost hunter didnt deal enough damage in the early stages. Even if there was an attack speed increase, it was still difficult for him to cause substantial damage to Asleep, let alone when there was a godly healer like Cong Yi beside Brother Sleep. In this first wave of ganking, it looked as though neither FTW and 3U had made any mistakes, but on a deeper level, FTW had earned the advantage! Yue Wenle didnt need to kill Asleep. What he needed to do was to interrupt his attacks. The thief needed to kill his target first whenever he attacked. If he wasnt able to suppress Yue Wenle right at the start, then it would be difficult for him to continue his pursuit, especially when Yue Wenle wasnt on his own. Asleep and Cong Yi retreated, and Yue Wenle continued to suppress Wen Wei, causing a small crack in 3Us rhythm. Wei Xiao ordered Little Ning, Try your best to stay beneath the tower. Ning Zhehan nodded hard. Yes! Wei Xiao went to the top lane and cooperated with Lu Feng to kill Xuan Long again. Xuan Long was already very zen in this game. He shouted after sending out three First Bloods in a row, Brother Long is sacrificed to the heavens for endless power. Screw their daddies, 3U! What else could they do? They could only find a way to honor his sacrifice, feeling a wave of heartache for Student Xuan Long who was hugging and crying for himself. Unfortunately, Asleep and Cong Yi had no way to be as arrogant as theyd been in their previous game. Six minutes later, Asleep was able to gank Yue Wenle and kill him. However, from ten minutes onwards, Asleep realized what a terrifying experience it was to be dominated by the ice arrows. The frost hunter was one of Yue Wenles famous heroes. His understanding of its ultimate move was too strong, and his ice arrows never missed. When it went out the first time, Asleep was locked in place. When it went out the second time, Asleep was locked in place again. When it went out the third time, Asleep was locked in placeagain. The audience was shocked. This accuracy is too exaggerated. Its like Yue Wenles put a positioning device on Asleeps body! These ice arrows theyre enough to put anyone into seclusion! The commentators eyes were sharper. Everyone should pay attention to Quiets positioning. The vision that Quiets providing is too accurate. Can blood thieves be played like this? They can! The blood raven thief has very high endurance because of its blood sucking mechanism. He doesnt need to go back to the base at all and can really move around freely. So, you mean that Quiet figures out where Asleep is, so that Yue Wenle can shoot out his ice arrows so accurately? Thats exactly it! This cooperation theyve definitely practiced for a long time. In fact, they hadnt practiced for that long. At least when it came to Yue Wenle, he hadnt wasted much time on this. Wei Xiao always gave him the right vision and had an accurate grasp on his skill cooldown time. He could mark the right angle and provide him with enough of a range of vision. Yue Wenle drew his bow and released his arrows and could always lock Asleep in place one step before he attacked. 20 minutes later. Asleeps rhythm was completely disordered, and the frost hunter who hadnt been suppressed in this game had already become the daddy of the entire canyon! A group fight broke out in the bottom lane. Bai Cais totem controlled Wen Wei, and Yue Wenle only needed two basic attacks to leave Wen Wei seriously injured. Wen Wei burst out with a curse, F*ck! This kind of damage was poisonous! Things became even more poisonous later on. Asleep locked onto Yue Wenle, and reasonably speaking, a marksman would absolutely die after a thief went around them and attacked from behind. But Yue Wenle didnt even move. He stood there steadily and shot out one arrow after another, straight into Asleeps face. Bai Cais cold sweat poured down. I hate you bold and fearless people the most! His mouth might say so, but his hands threw all the healing totems he had onto Yue Wenles body. The frost hunters HP went up and down like a roller coaster, falling all the way to the bottom before rising back up to the peak. He stood steadily, vividly displaying what it meant to stand still without moving but my opponent cant kill me. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Le killed 3U.WW. FTW.Le killed 3U.Night. FTW.Le killed 3U.Sleep. FTW.Le triple kill! Finally Yue Wenle and Bai Cai were able to execute a perfect counterattack when faced with the deadly encirclement and suppression from three 3U players! The author has something to say: God Le, badass! Brother Cai: Fortunately, Ive remarried. The captain shoots over a death glare. xiin: i love watching their growth~ Chapter 195: Perhaps his help was a new form of imprisonment for Asleep. The audience was full of cheers; the frost hunter looked explosively cool in the holographic projection. CCTheir figures were in a cold canyon, but the passionate blood in their hearts burned. At this moment, even 3Us fans were sincerely giving him warm applause. Of course, the players on the stage with their sound proof headsets couldnt hear it, but the atmosphere in the team chat wasnt much worse. Wei Xiao gave Yue Wenle and Bai Cai a fierce round of praise. It directly made Brother Cais ears turn crimson. Enough, enough. It would be too fake if he continued praising like this, okay! Wei Xiao was happy. Captain, it looks like the two of us can lie down flat and wait to be carried to victory in this game. Little Ning didnt understand the joke. I, I, I Can also lie down flat! Wei Xiaos tone was righteous, The blood thief and blood warrior are connected by life and death. What are you joining in for? Ning Zhehan: It was very reasonable, but why did he always feel that something was off about it? Brother Cai had already been sweating profusely from Yue Wenles actions. At this time, listening to Wei Xiaos words, he grew even more frightened. You He hadnt yet had time to try and patch things up when he heard Wei Xiao ask Lu Feng, Isnt that so, Captain? Lu Feng: Connected by life and death? Wei Xiao: Yeah! As soon as his voice dropped, Lu Feng used the Connected By Life and Death skill for him. Brother Vegetable: Can you be a bit more attentive? Were currently playing in the national semi-finals! The audience naturally didnt know what they were talking about, but their eyes were sharp. Under the holographic projection, the bloodthirsty generals entire body was covered with a bloody mist, and his pale fingertips pressed gently against his subordinates eyebrows, leaving a drop of blood on his forehead that glistened like a ruby. The deputy made a gesture of thanks, his attitude filled with reverence. This was the linked skill between the blood warrior and the blood thief. The two of them had the same amount of health, living and dying together. What happened! Why did Close suddenly give Quiet a Connected By Life and Death? Does there need to be a reason! Isnt this a skill that you can use just because you want to? In any case, it had no practical significance and was only used for entertainment. I know that this skill has no effect on the game, but what I dont understand is why did the great demon king suddenly start spoiling the little lunatic? What did the two of them say! Its over, its over, my CPs forcing me to overthink things! Great demon king, if youre being threatened, just blink! Whats the threat? What can the Little Lunatic Wei threaten him with? For example, sleeping on the floor tonight? Damn, fellow sister, tell me more about what goes on in your head! FTWs win was stable for this game. The frost hunters farm crushed the whole canyon. And with his highly explosive DPS, Asleep couldnt even think of trying to touch him. The advantages of Yue Wenles recklessness were seen at this time. Although cowering meant self-preservation, another aspect of recklessness was opportunism. Yue Wenle was very good at grasping opportunities. Once he caught a gap that he could take advantage of, he could shoot through the whole canyon with his ice arrows. An ADC that lost his head was easy to catch, but an ADC whod lost their head and played recklessly could also destroy the sky and the earth. 2:1! FTW was first to welcome the match point! There was a half-time break after three matches. When they took off their headsets, Wei Xiao tilted his head to ask Brother Cai, Didnt it feel great? Bai Cai: Great like hell it did! Wei Xiaos smile was wide. How can you obtain the ultimate experience if you dont work hard? Brother Cai: I dont f*cking want to have the ultimate experience at all! Even if it really felt quite good After going back to the backstage lounge, FTWs side was naturally in high spirits. Their leading score was one of the reasons for it, and the other was their breakthrough. Yue Wenles struggle for supremacy had set everyones heart on fire with passion in the third game. FTW didnt just have Close, and FTW didnt just have Quiet. Everyone in FTW had the courage to shoulder this heavy task, and they all had the courage to win the game! The quiet and unassuming God Le had told everyone with his strength that the China competition zones number one ADC hadnt been replaced by someone else. Chen Feng didnt say much else. He mentioned a few points that didnt touch on any sore points to steady the players moods. It was enough to help them muster up their energy. When it came to the trash talk segment, as usual, Wei Xiao wasnt given a chance to go. Wei Xiao was unhappy. Well always be at an advantage in future games. Doesnt that mean Ill never be able to go? Chen Feng: Ill borrow your lucky words. Wei Xiao: So angry! Lu Feng glanced at him. It only took one glance for Little Lunatic Wei to understand. Captain~ Lu Feng got up first, and Wei Xiao followed him out. Alright then, hed miss out on the trash talk segment, but there was now a recharging segment. Hed earned big! FTWs side was relaxed and happy, while on 3Us side, it was a different scene. The starters were actually in good states. Xuan Long was a silly fool, Li Chun was well behaved, and Wen Wei was self reflecting. Cong Yi and Asleep werent the type of people who would get depressed from a momentary loss. Leng Feng didnt say anything. The strength gap was right there in front of them, and simply forcing their way through it would get them no results. Let alone that, he was also distressed over his own cubs. They were already trying very hard, but they still needed to work harder. Only Zhou Xuehai was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, which made everyone annoyed. Like I said, we shouldnt have tried any new tactics. If wed started targeting Yue Wenle from the start, then wed now be at 2:1! Cong Yi, you should just follow Asleep honestly, and gank Yue Wenle to death. As long as you can deal with Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan, then FTW isnt even as good as a fart! I told you guys to listen to me, but all of you have your own ideas. Now, things are great. Its someone elses match point, and if you lose in the next match, things will be all f*cked up He hadnt yet finished, but Leng Feng couldnt listen on anymore. Enough. If there hadnt been that first game, then the game just now wouldve been the second game. These words were a bit roundabout, but the meaning behind them was clear. In the first match, 3U had tried new tactics and had Cong Yi cooperate with Wen Wei. That was precisely because they had been afraid that they wouldnt be able to hold down Yue Wenle. It was true that all the teams knew FTWs weaknesses, and they knew that as long as they could hold down their double c-positions, the top-jungler combo would be powerless to turn the tables. But this problem was something that all the teams were aware of. How could FTW themselves not know of it? Obviously, FTW was very clear on it, and theyd even come up with a solution. In the third match, Yue Wenle had hit everyone on the head with his ability. FTW was growing, and they were growing rapidly. Zhou Xuehai was still somewhat wary of Leng Feng. He paused briefly. Then what do we do now? We absolutely cant lose the fourth game! Everyone was still stable on the surface after losing the third match, but they all felt uncomfortable in their hearts. After going to the backstage lounge, they still had to listen to someone who only half understood the game chatter on and on, which made them feel even worse. Seeing that Zhou Xuehai was still acting superior and gesticulating, Asleep stood up abruptly. Zhou Xuehai was standing next to him and was taken by surprise by this tall and thin boys sudden actions. Asleep shot him a cold look and turned to leave the lounge. Zhou Xuehai: You Cong Yi also got up and said, If you disdain us, then we can list during the next transfer period. Zhou Xuehai shut up immediately. Xuan Long and the others had their gazes lowered, as quiet as chickens. This scene happened from time to time during the 3U base, and they were already accustomed to it. At first glance, Cong Yis words seemed a little overboard at this juncture, but Xuan Long and the others all understoodCC These words were being said just to make Zhou Xuehai shut up, in the hopes that he would stop messing with everyones mentalities. The one who was really responsible for the team was Cong Yi. The national semi-finals. Who would want to lose? After this season ended, how many more seasons could they play? Which professional struggling on this road wouldnt want to touch the golden championship trophy? Asleep leaned against the corner of a window, his eyelids at half mast. Cong Yi glanced over at the sign depicting the smoking zone. Want one? Asleep shook his head. Cong Yi lit up a cigarette for himself and exhaled lightly. Whats the matter. Asleep: The two of them had known each other from childhood. Despite the many years, Cong Yi had rarely ever said these words. He could always figure out what Asleep was thinking. Where was the need to ask him what was the matter? But these days, while Cong Yi could obviously sense that something was wrong with Asleep, he couldnt confirm exactly what was wrong with him. This made Cong Yi very surprised, but it was also a little unsettling. Professor Zhangs words echoed in his ears, Cong Yi, youve opened the door to Asleeps heart, but if this continues, will you have become another door in front of him? These words smashed into Cong Yis heart like a heavy hammer. When he was a child, Cong Yi had been the one who led Asleep out of his own world. People all said that Cong Yi was the key to Asleep, the key that opened up his heart and let him enter the world. ButCC You understand him, get him, and you know what hes thinking. You even help him make decisions, help him speak, and help him face things. You protected him, took care of him, and gave him a comfortable environment. But looking at it from another perspective, is this environment youre giving him another closed space? Professor Zhang hadnt clarified it further, but Cong Yi understood. He helped Asleep express himself, helped Asleep communicate with people, and helped Asleep say the things he didnt want to say. Was this helping Asleep, or was it depriving him of the ability to continue coming out of his shell? Cong Yi wasnt sure. Perhaps his help was a new form of imprisonment for Asleep. This awareness made Cong Yi very uneasy. Asleeps eyes raised up slightly, and he looked at him. Do you like playing support? It was a clear and cold, youthful voice that held the clumsiness and rawness of someone who hadnt spoken in a long time. Cong Yi froze for a moment and couldnt quite react. Asleep looked at him, his pair of black eyes quiet and calm. Cong Yi: The cigarette ash that slipped from his fingers woke Cong Yi up from his daze. He carefully cleaned up the dirtied ground, and when he got up again, hed already returned to his usual mild and thoughtful appearance. Why would you suddenly ask about this? Asleep didnt say anything, but his thoughts were clear in his eyes: Do you like it? Cong Yis mood was very complicated. He felt a little confused and had a strange sense of relief at the same time, I quite like it. Asleep dropped his gaze again. That means you dont like it. Cong Yi: Asleep: Do what you like. Cong Yi put out the cigarette and kneaded his forehead. So thats what youve been thinking about these days? Asleep shook his head. Cong Yi was curious. Then what exactly have you been thinking about? Asleeps thin lips pursed, like the words had already arrived at his lips, but they were stopped by something unknown. He couldnt say it. His heart wanted to say it, but his mouth wouldnt move. Cong Yi immediately said, Its fine, dont say it. He was very clear about Asleeps situation and the problems he faced. Forcing him to say something was like sharpening a knife on his body. Asleeps attitude relaxed, his thin lips shifting slightly. Cong Yi understood what he meant. Why are you apologizing to me. Asleep: Cong Yi looked at the time. Alright, if theres anything to discuss, we can talk about it slowly after we get back. Lets finish the game first. Asleep: Mm. Cong Yi walked ahead, and Asleep looked at the 3U.Night printed on his back. That sentence came up to his throat again: I want to protect you, too. CCProtect you, the one who has always protected me. The fourth game began. Wei Xiao was filled with energy. Its the match point game, lets make it a big one! Bai Cais heart felt like it was suspended in the air. He was really scared. Yue Wenle: Sure. Brother Cai fell back into his e-sports chair. Chen Feng knew what they wanted. The phantom thief? Wei Xiao: Yes! Chen Feng went to look at Yue Wenle. The longbow druid? Yue Wenle: Okay. Brother Cai lamented, I dont want to play the apocalypse priest ahhhhh! Coach Chen ignored him. FTW took out their big moves for the match point, and 3U also took out their ultimate weapons. Asleep snatched up the berserker thief, and Cong Yi took out his puppet warlock. The audience was instantly on fire, How exciting! The puppet warlock can play support? Interesting, interesting! Chapter 196: Little kitty, dont cry. Big brother will...... There were many talents in Glory that could play in multiple positions. For example, the medicine warlock could be played as a mid-lane hero or support. For example, the death knight could be played in the top-lane or in the jungle. Even amongst the hunters, there were also talents that could be played in either the mid-lane or bottom lane. The talents were diverse, and the line-up possibilities were infinite. The positions were inanimate, but the players were alive, and this was what made the tactics so interesting. The puppet warlock was one of the flexible talents. When used in the mid-lane, it could control and deal DPS, and it wasnt weak at providing support. When it was used for the support position and switched out its gear for tank gear, it could tank damage, exert control, and provide DPS that other support talents couldnt match. Naturally, a talent as flexible as the puppet warlock also had its disadvantages. One was the difficulty level in operating itCCnot only did it require high hand speed and micro operations, it also depended on strategic awareness and an overall view of the situation. Second, it was difficult for people to find its balanceCCit wasnt as tanky as a real tank, its control wasnt as reliable, and its DPS fell short of a real DPS talent. Every talent had its good and bad points. How it was evaluated all depended on a teams tactics. 3U had taken the puppet warlock for Cong Yi, and it was clear that they planned to use it for the support position. However Cong Yis really been a bit buried. His personal level is very high. Those whove seen his single queue live broadcasts can all see it clearly. He dares to use anything. Its not like Brother Cais type of daring to use anything, right When Bai Cai live streamed, he was often left barely scraping out a living; especially before Wei Xiao had joined the team. It was normal to have jungler kings spoil the vegetable, and Bai Cai could use the lolita fire mage to support a jungle king and still win the game. Im sorry, let me correct my words. Its not that he dares to use anything, but that he can use anything. Hes that amazing? Of course, hes not an all-rounder king like Close and Quiet, but his warlocks and mages are all played pretty well. Just looking at his hand speed when he plays the elemental shaman is enough to show that hes not the average player. So, why is Cong Yi playing support? Whats wrong with playing the support position? A support position player can also be given god status! Dont mention that rogue Yan, okay? Hes disgusting. Yan Jiang was a harbinger of bloody storms and could instantly cause the scrolling comments to tear into each other. The BP ended, and both sides line-ups were determined. The fourth match of the national semi-finals began! The talents that FTW took inspired the commentators to say a lot. The tide warrior hasnt been seen for a long time. Has Close ever used it in singles? Close hasnt used it much, but I heard that Marshal in North America has used it often recently. Speaking of which, Close was always following L&Ps training matches when he was treating his shoulder. It seems that hes making use of what hes learned! Since Yuan Ze was another harbinger of bloody storms, the commentators didnt dare to mention him too much. They only mentioned him briefly, then let the topic slide. Not only had Lu Feng taken the tide warrior, but Wei Xiaos phantom thief, Yue Wenles longbow druid, and Bai Cais apocalypse priest, and even Ning Zhehans cat engineer all made the audience feel like they were seeing something fresh and new. So, this is why I just like to watch FTW play. They dare to use anything and can pull out all sorts of tricks. Their line-ups arent limited, and theyre not dependent on any talent. Unlike some other teams who only have one or two routines. Dont they find it boring to use the same thing every day? Theres also a certain crying team who hides all the time and doesnt let anything see the light. Who knows if they even have anything solid. This implication was a little too obvious, and the live broadcast room that had only just finished banning one set of keywords now did another round of bans. Some people had fair evaluations. To be honest, the reason FTW has so many line-ups isnt because their coaching team is amazing. Its because Close and Quiets hero pools are too deep, okay? This was the so-called even a clever woman cant cook a meal without rice. Coach Chen Feng was very capable, but if a player had only mastered one or two heroes, then there would be limits to his tactical thinking no matter how amazing it was. In comparison, 3Us line-up was a little more old-fashioned. Asleep was in the first position and snatched up the berserker thief, while Xuan Long took the divine warrior. Wen Wei took the frost hunter that Yue Wenle had used in the previous match, and only Cong Yis choice was a bit more notable, having taken the puppet warlock. No matter how the audience complained that it was boring, 3Us line-up this time was absolutely serious. A jungler core, double support, and strong control. 3Us intentions were obviousCCthis was a battle where theyd cut off all means of retreat! As they entered the game, Bai Cai said, Ill follow you first. He was speaking to Wei Xiao. In this game, Asleep would definitely go for their jungle zone. Hed taken the berserker thief and was followed by two support talents; hed have to be stupid not to go into his enemys jungle zone. Wei Xiao didnt refuse him. He said decisively, Well go across directly. Asleep would definitely enter their jungle zone, and defending it was only a short term solution. When it came to an early fight, FTWs line-up didnt have any major advantages. A berserker thief with a divine warrior and puppet warlock supporting it was enough to hammer through the canyon before they reached level three. Instead of going up against them head on, it was better to exchange resources. Let alone when FTWs side had a great demon king Wei Xiaos voice was as sweet as honey. Captain~ Even Brother Cai couldnt understand what he meant with this call, all the way until he pulled down the minimap and found that Close, who was on the top lane, had defended their own little eagle. Brother Cai: Alright, then. You two husbands have a soul level tacit understanding that generates endless amounts of dog food! Are you done yet! Wei Xiao immediately cleared out 3Us bottom jungle zone, and Asleep cleared out FTWs upper jungle zone. Unfortunately, the little eagle closest to the top lane had been taken away by Close, so 3U made a small loss in this transaction. After trading jungle zones, Asleep and Cong Yi were obviously ready and itching to start a fight. Wei Xiao spoke as he cleared out his own bottom jungle zone, Be careful, Little Ning. Ning Zhehans cat engineer was a long-distance and agile mage talent. It was very suited to providing support everywhere, provided that it didnt get ambushed. Ning Zhehan: Yes! He retreated cautiously as he spoke, no longer daring to pressure the other sides ice mage too much. Unexpectedly, a whish sounded out by his ear. Ning Zhehans heart chilled, but his flash was half a second slower than Asleeps scythe. Ning Zhehan sucked in a breath even as he was pulled away from the safety of the tower. Berserker thief! His flash activated, and he pulled away from Asleep again. Unfortunately, Cong Yis puppet warlock had already placed a puppet on his body, and Ning Zhehan, whod escaped from the berserker thiefs attack range with much difficulty, found himself running back under the puppets control. The puppet warlocks first skill was to create a puppet that could control another player. It could be manipulated for two seconds after being used on an enemy. But these two seconds were deadly. The berserker thiefs black scythe locked around the little cats throat and harvested his life like a harbinger of death. System AnnouncementCC 3U.Sleep killed FTW.Silvery! Finally! In the fourth match, 3U took First Blood for the first time. Theyd snatched away that first kill from Closes hands! Xuan Long was almost about to cry, Badass, captain! Even if he was about to get killed by Close, he could die satisfied! If he was the one to send out First Blood for every match in this game, he would have to punish himself for his crimes after going back to the base tonight! Wei Xiao coaxed Little Ning, Little kitty, dont cry. Big brother will get revenge for you later. Ning Zhehan: Bai Cai: Close killed Xuan Long. Wei Xiao choked and said quickly, About that, your Brother Yue will get revenge for you, okay? Yue Wenle: ??? Wei Xiao: I cant do it, Im just a little phantom, the type who needs the tide daddys protection. The tide warrior (Close) killed the ancient creature. Wei Xiao was scared, very scared. He was very scared that he wouldnt be allowed to climb into the big, soft bed in the guest room tonight Although FTW had lost First Blood, and although FTW was at a bit of a disadvantage in this match, thanks to Wei Xiaos messing around, to hell with being down! Ning Zhehan had already forgotten how hed died! Had he given out First Blood? Whod done it? He didnt remember! xiin: little Nings so cute, lol Chapter 197.1: His trust wasnt blind trust but something that stemmed from confidence. Dying once in the early stages wasnt a big problem. Ning Zhehan was back in the game soon after his resurrection and didnt lose too many little soldiers. In the farm panel, FTW and 3U were basically even. There wasnt much difference between them. The only difference was that the person with the most farm in 3U was Asleep, while FTWs number one was Close. In fact, there was a hidden danger here. The top-laner was relatively more fixed in place. Having a higher farm meant that he could suppress Xuan Long, but Close didnt need a farm advantage to suppress Xuan Long at all. Therefore, the extra gold coins were a little wasted, and it would be more meaningful if he could give them to Wei Xiao. However, the mechanics of the game were set up like this, and there was no way to give gold to ones teammates. The hidden danger in FTW was an opportunity for 3U. Asleep would never let go of this chance to gain an advantage. He relied on the way his farm was higher than Wei Xiaos to finish clearing out his jungle faster, allowing him to focus on ganking and arrive at the bottom lane before Wei Xiao could. Not to mention, Brother Cai had provided vision. Even if he hadnt, Wei Xiao would also be able to figure out what Asleep was thinking, and hed ordered Bai Cai to go with Yue Wenle in order to maintain his temporary advantage in the bottom lane. Asleep came even faster than Yue Wenle had imagined, and he didnt even pause at all. He didnt hide himself in the bushes and instead, went out directly, waving his scythe and latching onto Yue Wenle. The berserker thiefs scythe absolutely didnt miss. Asleep caught Yue Wenle! Brother Cai quickly switched to the Book of Revelations, switching from Introspection to Advice and barely managing to give Yue Wenle a boost to his defense. The apocalypse priest was a special type of support. It was very commonly seen in casual games, and was especially popular among girls. The main reason for it was that its skills were simple, and it wasnt difficult to operate. Also, the hero looked handsome. The apocalypse priest held the Book of Revelations, and the book had two forms. One was Introspection, which greatly improved the DPS ability of a teammate if attached to a friendly troop, increasing it by a certain percentage. The later in the game it was, the more terrifying this increase became. The other form was Advice, and the effect was to improve their teammates defense. It would also add a tiny shield that would gradually improve as the hero levelled up and increased their skill level. At first, Bai Cai had given Yue Wenle the Introspection buff. Now, hed switched to Advice, planning to protect him, but Yue Wenle: Introspection! Bai Cai was stunned. Yue Wenle didnt say anything else and began to shoot at the berserker thief like crazy. F*ck! Brother Cai finally reacted. He and Yue Wenle really lacked a certain level of tacit understanding. He still didnt know him well enough. Yue Wenle had been locked in by Asleep. What was the use of Advice? A small defense bonus and a tiny shield in the early stages wasnt enough against a scythe. It was better to keep up Introspection, stack up the DPS, and trade his life for Asleeps. Since he was set to die anyway, then any life he could harvest was better than nothing. Bai Cai switched back to Introspection, but it was already too late. What made the situation even more deadly was that Cong Yis puppet warlock had actually used two puppets at the same time! When the cute little doll settled over his shoulders, Bai Cai felt his shoulders sink down in reality as well. Wei Xiao: Ill be right there. Bai Cai: Be careful of Old Yue! It wasnt Be careful, Old Yue, but Be careful of Old Yue. It sounded strange, but anyone who was familiar with the puppet warlock would understand it. Being manipulated by the puppet for two seconds wasnt limited to just movement. He could even control the target of Yue Wenles attacks! Brother Cai watched as his own character went to sleep against his control, and Yue Wenles attacks landed on his body. The longbow druid with Introspection really dealt a lot of damage that shot straight at the heart! The scythe dance killed Yue Wenle, and Yue Wenles damage left Brother Cai at critical health. Asleep took down a double kill. Meanwhile, Wei Xiao and Close arrived at the same time. The phantom thief opened up its mirror image, while the tide warriors Demon Song dazed the berserker thief. The puppet warlock turned and walked away without looking back. The scrolling comments were laughing like crazy. Whats going on, God Yi, are you ditching your captain! Holy shit, how heartless, my Brother Sleep was sold off by his own support just like that. Theres no helping it. Asleeps been dazed by the great demon king, and the puppet warlock doesnt have any skills left. If he stays, hell just be giving them two kills, so its better to leave as soon as possible. Even if, even though, isnt it good to die for love? Dont flame me, its just a joke! Asleep, whod just taken two kills, died under the phantom thiefs mirror image. Wei Xiao gained a lot from this one round, but unfortunately, he was unable to catch Cong Yi. Fortunately, there wasnt a chat system in the competitive arena. Otherwise, Wei Xiao might actually have typed something to ridicule God Yis actions of selling out his friends for the sake of survival. The commentators: FTW still lost more. Close finished clearing his lane soldiers before coming down, but even if he rushes up now, hes bound to waste a round of resources. Its a pity that Quiet was unable to kill Cong Yi. Although he interrupted Asleeps killing spree, hes still 800 gold behind in farm. The phantom thief can still compare to the berserker thief in the early stages, but itll become difficult in the late stages. The phantom thief was similar to the hidden thief in that they were both early stage talents. and they were of little use in the later stages of the game. Wei Xiao hadnt played very smoothly in the early stages, so it was hard to expect him to play out anything shocking later in the game. Soon the commentators eyes lit up again. FTW directly switched lanes! Close is staying in the bottom lane! Its a very clever move. Yue Wenle will revive soon and can rush up to the top lane with a teleport. FTW wont lose the slightest bit of resources. And Xuan Longs equipment isnt very good. Yue Wenle and Bai Cai will be able to develop safely and steadily in a two against one situation. If Close is on the bottom lane, then Wen Wei While they were talking, 3U switched lanes as well! If FTW could teleport, then 3U could, too. The great demon king wanted to bully Wen Wei? No way. In any case, Xuan Long was a divine warrior and could be used like a support position even if his farm was at the very bottom of the list. But if Wen Wei was handicapped, then Asleep would be unable to save 3U no matter how much he burned and slaughtered away. The rhythm of the game picked up all of a sudden. Although it was a match point game and a game that was likely to determine the outcome of the semi-finals, both sides still fought more and more fiercely. Asleep played without reservations, his entire person like a taut bow that was ready to be released. Mid-lane, bottom lane, jungle zone. Asleep was always one step ahead of Wei Xiao, and he was always able to find the right opportunity to gank someone. Wei Xiao suffered from not having a support with him. Asleep, who had Cong Yi with him, had help for everything. This varied from clearing out the jungle, providing vision, and even enhancing his moving speed. Wei Xiao was unable to compare with them on his own. Of course, ganking could be done separately. For example, Asleep could mess with the bottom lane while Wei Xiao went to mess with 3Us mid-lane, trading in an ADC for the mid-laner and making it so that neither side gained any benefits. But Wei Xiao didnt do that. The reason? It would become an ongoing source of additional trouble. Regardless of whether it was 3U or FTW, both teams focused on the bottom lane as a place of strategic importance. Li Chun had taken the ice mage. Even if Wen Wei killed him ten times, he would still be able to play out his value in the later stagesCCas long as he could control people, it wouldnt matter if his DPS was a bit lower because the core DPS positions were Asleep and Wen Wei. FTW followed almost the same reasoning. The cat engineer had a strong support ability, and after clearing the lane soldiers, it could go to the bottom lane to provide support. Unfortunately, the vision Cong Yi provided was too good. Once they saw Ning Zhehan heading down, they would head straight to the mid-lane and try to take down the middle tower there like crazy. 25 minutes into the game. Chen Feng bit his thumb nervously beneath the stage. Tang Chen: Its alright, this is only the fourth match. Chen Feng shook his head. We cant enter the decisive game. The last game of a BO5 was also called the decisive game. This so-called decisive game literally meant that the entire games win or loss was determined with this one match; losing this match would signal the end of the season. There was too much pressure involved in playing in the decisive game. Chen Feng understood Wei Xiao and knew that he was able to pump up the teams outlook. But to be honest, emotions that could be rallied so easily were the most unstable. Wei Xiao had inspired them for a while, but he couldnt keep it up for the duration of the whole game. The three little ones all had various shortcomings when it came to their ability to deal with pressure. If they really had to play the decisive game, then their ability to play out their potential would be greatly reduced. On the other hand, for 3U, theyd have travelled a bumpy road in order to catch up to a 2:2 score. At that time, their morale would increase greatly, and they might be able to win the decisive game all in one go. So, Chen Feng was a little flustered. What he didnt want to see the most was FTW having to enter the decisive game. Hold steady. Chen Feng stared at the scene in front of him and focused on the five players who were active on the field. This was FTWs most promising year. Dont let it all come to an end in the semi-finals! 30 minutes into the game. The game had completely entered the later stages. The defense towers on both sides had been pushed all the way up to the base, and the three isolated base towers on both the red and blue sides guarded their final glory. The audiences nerves were strained to the extreme. They watched the holographic projection without blinking. Perhaps it would only take a group fight to determine the outcome. Maybe, there was only one big fight left! So far, the farm panel was about even on both sides. Wei Xiaos farm wasnt much worse than Asleeps, and Yue Wenle had finally caught up. Even the cat engineer had sufficient pieces of finished equipment. There was friction, skirmishes, and everything was hanging by a hair trigger! No one knew when the fight would start, but once the smoke of gunfire rose up, the winner would definitely be determined. On FTWs side. Wei Xiaos voice was light. Dont panic. We have the apocalypse priest and the longbow druid. Well definitely win. Brother Cai felt uneasy. But youre now a waste! At this stage, Wei Xiaos phantom thief was really nothing but a big waste. He died easily in a fight, it was difficult for him to launch sneak attacks, and it was easy for him to be caught if he tried to lead in the lanes. Hed already fallen into his weak stage. Wei Xiao: Im a bit of a waste, but Im handsome. Brother Cai: Wei Xiao called out to Yue Wenle in the middle of their conversation, Come and take the jungle creeps. Basically from seven or eight minutes ago, Wei Xiao had already started giving out his resources. The jungle creeps were a farm resource that belonged to the jungler. Giving it up to his teammates meant that his own development would fall behind. However, at this stage, the phantom thief wouldnt be able to kill Wen Wei even if he had all of his equipment maxed out. It was better to give it to Yue Wenle and let him DPS from the back. The longbow druid that was tied together with an apocalypse priest had already developed into a DPS machine for group fights. Even basic attacks alone were enough to make his opponents miserable. Wei Xiao was very aware of this point, and he believed in Yue Wenles ability. His trust wasnt blind trust but something that stemmed from confidence. Chapter 197.2: There was no rule stipulating that a jungler couldnt protect a support. 3Us team chat. Cong Yi: We cant let it drag on any longer. At first glance, it seemed like 3U was dominant and had been pressuring FTW during the game. It even seemed like they had a good chance of winning. However, those in the canyon were very clear on how terrifying the longbow druid with full equipment was. This was an overpowering late stage hero. It was even more of a late stage talent than the frost hunter. The longbow druid didnt have any control skills or self-preservation skills. The mechanism for its four skills were very simple; other than providing vision, the remaining three all strengthened its basic attack. The first skill added 50%, and the second skill added another 50%. Its ultimate move would increase its attack speed by 200%. As soon as one set of skills went out, even a huge tank with full gear wouldnt be able to hold up against this level of damage. The puppet warlock wasnt a talent that could resist damage. Cong Yi was very concerned about letting this match drag out because there were too many variables to consider. Asleep: Force a fight in the dragon pit. Ill aim for the druid. It was rare for Asleep to say so much, and it was enough to show how nerve-wracking the battle situation was. Cong Yis eyebrows drew together in a frown. No way. You cant die. The only way to kill Yue Wenle through the iron walls of FTWs defense was to trade a life for a life. Asleep was 3Us rhythm engine. After he died, the others simply wouldnt be able to hold up against Close and Quiets joint attacks. Cong Yi made a decision. Ill go and trade my life for the druid. Asleep froze for a moment. Seeing the battle dragon king that led to the final battle emerge in the canyon, Cong Yi spoke to Xuan Long, Start! The divine warrior had the ability to start a team fight. Xuan Long breathed in. Okay. Using the battle dragon king to force FTW to come and fight was already a standard routine. But even if FTW knew that it was a routine, they still had to go and face the challenge. If they lost the advantage of the battle dragon king, then 3U would be able to push over FTWs resurrection crystal even if they were fighting four against five. Its on. Wei Xiao. Lu Feng: Mm. As their voices landed, the phantom thief opened up his mirror image. The phantom body and his real body rushed up to Wen Wei at the same time. Xuan Longs skills shifted directions, and he shot out abruptly from the dragon pit, aiming straight at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao used up all of his skills. Backing down was impossible, but it was really a loss for him to toss all he had on Xuan Longs body. Let alone the fact that exposing himself like this was enough for Asleep to lock onto him with his scythe. In that instant, a huge wave of sound fell from the skyCC Deep Sea Domain! The tide warriors ultimate move landed, and dazzling special effects transformed the entire dragon pit into a deep sea. A pool of azure sea water created a deep water domain, turning the canyon into a rift in the sea floor. Beautiful! The commentators couldnt help but exclaim, This ultimate move landed perfectly! Deep Sea Domain was a ranged attack. The tide warrior held up his trident and summoned up a watery domain to honor the god of the sea. It would cover the land, and at the same time, it would send all enemies within range flying for one second. The more enemies he hit, the more he would be able to enhance his basic attacks! The tide warrior swept out his trident, and all enemies within range instantly lost a third of their health. Wei Xiao was happy and delighted. Daddy, thank you for protecting me. Not only did Closes ultimate move shock everyone in 3U, it had also saved the phantom thief that had almost been killed. FTW took the advantage. The cat engineers bomb landed, bombarding their opponents and causing them to flee everywhere in desperation. They saw that Wen Wei, Li Chun, and even Xuan Long all seemed to be done for, but the audience who had gods perspective discovered where the real danger was. God Les in danger! Deep Sea Domain had sent three people from 3U flying, but Cong Yi had smoothly gone around the back and smashed a puppet onto Yue Wenle. Yue Wenle instantly used flash, attempting to get out of the puppet warlocks range, but Cong Yi still had another card up his sleeve. He used Ning Zhehan instead, and a cat bomb flew towards Yue Wenle! Oh no! Brother Cai was panicking by Yue Wenles side. He couldnt let Yue Wenle die! Once the longbow druid fell to the ground, FTW wouldnt be able to hold up against 3Us next wave of attacks. The apocalypse priests fatal flaw was revealed here. The apocalypse priest could strengthen a teammates attack and provide defense, but it couldnt heal. His ultimate move would buff the entire team, but what he could do for Yue Wenles health bar was very limited. What should he do? Bai Cai had no time to think about it. He could only rush up and try to take the damage with his own body. Even though it was deadly for their team if he died, it was still better than having Yue Wenle die! Cong Yi saw through Bai Cais intentions and immediately changed his target, heaping down all of the damage he could deal onto Bai Cai. Trading the puppet warlocks life for the apocalypse priest? Didnt this seem to be a trade between support and support? No, this was profit maximization for 3U! The puppet warlock played a much smaller role in team fights compared to the apocalypse priest. If the apocalypse priest could be killed, then it would be like removing the bow from Yue Wenles longbow druids hands. The damage he dealt out would be reduced by 50%. A longbow druid without the apocalypse priest wasnt anything to be feared. Trading Cong Yi for Bai Cai would allow 3U to make a steady profit. A blue phantom flashed by just as Brother Cai was about to be done for. After shifting figures, Wei Xiao was the one standing there in front of the apocalypse priest. The holographic projection accurately displayed this scene for the audience. The phantom thiefs thin figure stood there like shards of broken glass, shattering in front of Bai Cais white-garbed priest. Bai Cai: ! Wei Xiaos health plummeted. Hed originally been at half health, and his health instantly dropped down to a critical state. Bai Cais scalp was numb, his hands moving faster than his brain, wanting to heal him. No, wait He wasnt a holy priest, nor was he a light priest, nor an elemental shaman. He was an apocalypse priest who didnt have any heals. Brother Cai panicked. Old Wei Wei Xiaos phantom image flew out again. He controlled the puppet warlock who was close by, and he smashed the rest of the damage he could deal out onto his body. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed 3U.Night. 3U.Night killed FTW.Quiet. Wei Xiao and Cong Yi had killed each other off! A support position had taken away a jungler position. 3U had done great! Bai Cai exploded. Old Wei, what are you doing, how could you How could you block the damage for me as a jungler. Asleep, who was on the other side, was stunned as well. Suddenly Wei Xiaos rambling voice echoed inside his heart, Although its a support players duty to protect his teammates, no one has ever stipulated that a jungler cant protect their support. There was no rule stipulating that a jungler couldnt protect a support. There was no rule stipulating that a jungler couldnt die in place of a support. There was no rule stipulating that a support had to be the one who was sacrificed! Wei Xiao saved Bai Cai. This wasnt a decision made unreasonably, nor was it done out of impulse. This was the best judgment, made after considering the big picture and understanding the situation. Sacrificing a phantom thief in order to maintain the perfect combination of apocalypse priest and longbow druid. Wei Xiao released the mouse and spoke languidly, Old Yue, Brother Cai, its up to you guys now. Bai Cai: F*ck! The Book of Revelations lit up, and Advice fell onto Yue Wenles body. The longbow druid who now had double the damage shot through Xuan Long with a single arrow. After that came a round of absolute slaughter. The deep sea domain disappeared, and the apocalypse priests blessing fell down from the sky. The four remaining players from FTW were bathed in this holy light and charged at 3U. Li Chun fell. Wen Wei fell. Asleep killed Ning Zhehan, but couldnt avoid Yue Wenles longbow. The sound of arrows flying rang out one after another, and the group fight ended. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Le quadrakill! Another quadrakill. Yue Wenle proved his strength in the marksman position with his terrifying DPS. The blue teams crystal exploded, signaling the end of the game! FTW won the national semi-finals with a 3:1 score! Enthusiastic cheers broke out at the scene, for this final, wonderful competition, for the group fight where everyone fought to the death, for Cong Yi, for Wei Xiao, for 3U, and for FTW! For these young people whod brought this fantastic fight to them, but also for the way their struggle all the way until the last second had made their blood boil! The commentators voices were loud, and the atmosphere in the whole arena was brought up to an extreme peak. The contestants pulled off their headsets. Wei Xiao blinked at Brother Cai. Badass, Old Bai. The rims of Bai Cais eyes were red. You f*ckin Wei Xiao stood up and looked across the stage at 3U. Theyd lost the game, lost this season. The five players from 3U were in a bit of a trance. It didnt feel real. Was it the end of the season, just like that? Had they come to the end here? Li Chun burst into tears, and Xuan Long and Wen Wei, two old contestants, also couldnt quite recover their senses. Cong Yi looked straight ahead and didnt say anything. Until A cold but raw youthful voice rang out over 3Us headset, Sorry. It was Asleep. Everyone in 3U was stunned. Asleeps voice trembled, but it also held unprecedented firmness, I didnt protect all of you well. As the captain, hed always been the one living under his teammates protection. Chapter 198: Captain, will you feel aggrieved like this? Asleeps brain was filled with the scene of Wei Xiao sacrificing himself to protect Bai Cai at the end. Wei Xiao wasnt FTWs captain, and he was also a new player whod only joined this season. Even so, hed become the pillar of the whole team. He clearly had strength that was stronger than anyone elses, and it was clear that his jungler was strong enough to support the whole team as its core, and it was clear that he would lead the team to victory by playing out all his strengths, but He chose his teammates. Hed shouldered this responsibility and lived up to it. Real growth was to come out of ones own comfort zone. Asleep turned aroundCChe finally saw the people around him and finally took the initiative to look at his teammates. Cong Yi immediately said, What are you talking about, you Asleep was right next to him. He took off his headset and hugged him. Cong Yi: ! Asleeps voice was light, Its been hard on you. Cong Yi, whod always been more mature than their peers, whod taken care of everyone around him like a big brother, who had quietly been taking on this responsibility, was only 18 years old. Who wouldve thought that he was only a little bit older than Asleep? Who remembered that he was only a half grown youth? Cong Yis voice choked in his throat, and he couldnt say a word. Xuan Long, Wen Wei, and Li Chun all came over and hugged the two of them between them. Theyd lost the game, lost this season, but there was still a ray of light shining on them. This was a light that broke through the closed off self and brought light to feelings of alienation and indifference as it turned the heart into a rope whose goal was Glory. The camera focused on 3U, and the five players in a group hug was a scene that burned itself into the hearts of the audience. Fans shouted out the names of the players they loved, encouraging and motivating them as they looked forward to their new future! The two teams shook hands and said goodbye. When Asleep arrived in front of Wei Xiao, Wei Xiao held his hand, then pulled Asleep towards himself. Asleep was stunned. Wei Xiao gave him a brief hug. You can do it. The rims of Asleeps eyes that were already red became even more swollen. Wei Xiao continued, See you in the doubles. Asleep: ! The game was over. As one of the top domestic competitions for the season, there was no way they would skip the post-game interviews. Because of Yue Wenles excellent performance over two consecutive games, FTWs MVP was given to Yue Potato Chips. Chen Feng: Go and do the interview. Yue Wenle: Wei Xiao plucked the chips from his hand. If you dont go, Ill go? Only Wei Xiao would do such a thing. If anyone else tried to snatch away the potato chips from God Les hands, it would be the same as taking away his bow and arrow in the game and would lead to real life PK. Yue Wenle: Oh. Wei Xiao was really sour and jealous. Im not there for the trash talk and not there for the interview. How about I change my name? Even Brother Cai was too lazy to pay attention to the words that came out of his mouth. However Lu Feng cooperated with him. Change it to what? Wei Xiao: Well-behaved and quiet little cutie? Lu Feng laughed briefly. The whole room of people: Wheres your dignity, big brother! Also, great demon king, you cant indulge him like this; his tails going to fly up all the way up to the heavens! Yue Wenle went to the interview table. Comrade Old Yue had a quiet character. He didnt speak much normally; if he had the time, wasnt it more fun playing games? Of course, that didnt mean that he was unaccustomed to interviews. In fact, he was quite good at them. The host asked a few irrelevant questions, and Yue Wenles answers left no room for criticism. Then, the host started to make trouble. God Le performed really well today and took the MVP for the semi-finals. This was obviously a trick question. A more inexperienced contestant might fall for it, but Yue Wenle was very stable. His appearance was as pale as ever, and his tone was easy, Its not that I performed well. The host: Oh? Yue Wenle: My teammates gave me great opportunities. The captains Deep Sea Domain was the perfect start to the fight, Quiet sacrificed himself to protect brother Cai, and Little Nings ranged damage lowered the other sides health. Of course, there was also Brother Cais He paused, and the host immediately picked up on it, What about Brother Cai? Yue Wenle answered, Brother Cai was very stable as an accessory. The apocalypse priest was also known as the apocalypse accessory and was infamous as a talent that waited to be carried to victory. The audience burst out laughing. In the backstage lounge, the corner of Bai Cais lips twitched. Get lost! He might be cursing, but the rims of Brother Cais eyes still grew red. That last wave of group fighting had touched him greatly. Hed gotten used to being a zen support player, and Bai Cai himself had a personality that didnt strive for much. So, hed always just done his part and left the rest up to fate, sacrificing himself and relying on his teammates. But in that game just now, hed really felt panic when Wei Xiao fell. To put it more emotionally, to him, Wei Xiao was like a god of war. Regardless of whether it was two years ago or two years later, or even today. Bai Cai was used to supporting Wei Xiao, used to watching Wei Xiao perform all over the arena, and even more used to Wei Xiao leading them to win. When this person, who was like a pillar to him, toppled, Bai Cais brain had flashed with a sense of loss. The person who took responsibility was gone, their core had fallen. What could he do as a support player? Then, Wei Xiao told him, Its up to you guys now. Up to him? Up to him?!!! Bai Cai didnt know what hed done in that last wave. Of course, subjectively speaking, he hadnt needed to do anything at all. Once he opened the Book of Revelations, he just had to escort Yue Wenle to the end, and it was all done. But it felt different. For the first time, he felt the sense of responsibility that came with being entrusted with a task and being relied onCC The fact that the responsibility of bringing the team to victory had one day fallen upon his shoulders. It turned out that he had the power to determine whether their team won or lost. It turned out that winning this semi-final really had something to do with him, Bai Cai! Bai Cai finally experienced an unprecedented feeling of hot, burning passion. Wei Xiao: What are you crying for? He tilted his head to look at him. Brother Cai: Laozis happy crying! Wei Xiao grinned. Feels great? Bai Cai: Get lost! It really felt great. Deep and incisive, leaving no regrets behind. It was the kind of great that left goosebumps all over his body. It was just, why did these words sound so poisonous coming out of Wei Xiaos mouth?! After winning the semi-finals, they naturally had to have a celebration. Xiang Liu had already made arrangements a long time ago. Wei Xiao was curious. Brother Liu, what if we lost Xiang Liu: Bah, bah, bah, dont say unlucky things. Lu Feng: Wed still have to eat if we lost. Xiang Liu: . Alright then, boss, whatever you say is correct. After the semi-finals came the finals. It was impossible for the cubs to be allowed to drink, but holding a hot pot dinner and letting loose a bit wasnt much of a problem. They were able to hold steady in the venue, and they were relatively quiet in the car, but by the time they had gotten around to the food stage of the evening, the happiness of this group of half-grown brats started heating up the atmosphere. Ning Zhehan: We won??? Brother Cai bonked him on the head. What do you think. Little Ning: Were in the finals? Brother Cai: Nonsense! Ning Zhehan, whod never experienced such a big scene, was flushed red. I made it to the finals in my first season?! Wei Xiao joined in on the conversation as he waited for his captain to feed him. Calm down, wait until we win the world championship in your first season before getting excited. Ning Zhehan: ! Xiang Lius heart leapt. About that, lets not talk big Lu Feng: Thats right. Xiang Liu: Brother Liu stuffed his own mouth with a big bite of Australian lobster. Forget it, forget it, it was better to say less and eat more. Otherwise, he wouldnt even know how he got kicked out! After a round of eating and excitement, they went back to the base. Chen Feng waved his hands. Go to sleep early. Well go over the game replay tomorrow. Brother Cai had already recovered, and his laziness crept up again. Dont we get a day to rest Chen Feng: Ha, ha. Bai Cai: Like hell were resting, Little Ning. We just took down the semi-finals and youre already thinking of how to laze off! Granny Gray, who was a little stuffed from all the eating: ??? Wei Xiao scolded Bai Cai. Be a little less shameless, Brother Cai. Bai Cai: Id respect those words if they came from anyone else except you! Wei Xiao: Fine, fine, fine, Ill stop. Im handing Brother Soy over to you. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao gave Soybean a kiss, then told it, Go play with your uncle. Hes still full of energy. Soybean: |O|Ao~~~ Bai Cai cowered. Holy shit, Little Lunatic Wei, act like a person. Its already midnight. To hell with playing! Brother Soy only understood its fathers words and had already started bumping its head against the white cabbage. The dark circles under Caicais eyes the next day were shocking. If someone took a photo of it and posted it up on the Gossip Emperors Weibo, then it was likely that the fans would think that the little wife had been XXOO and OOXXed! Wei Xiao looked at Lu Feng, acting very reserved in front of the crowd of people. Captain, do you have anything else to do later? Lu Feng: No. Wei Xiaos eyes were shining. Solo? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: You said it before, if we win the semi-finals, I Lu Feng: Alright. The two of them went upstairs, and Little Ning, who didnt know anything, sighed emotionally, Brother Xiaos really too diligent. We just won a game, and he still wants to solo. Hes so diligent and hard-working, I want to learn from him! Looking at this enthusiastic Ning Zhehan, Chen Feng and Brother Cai, who both knew the truth, couldnt bear to watch on. Who the hell knew if they were soloing in Glory or soloing in bed?! Like hell you want to learn that! Coach Chen and the white cabbage had really overthought things. Wei Xiao just asked for a kiss, the type that made him blush and his heart race as his limbs went numb and he wanted to mmm ahhhh. Lu Feng released him. Go take a bath. Wei Xiao looked at him. After cleaning up, can we Lu Feng poked the tip of his nose. No. Wei Xiao was chagrined. Theres still so many days left before the finals. Lu Fengs mouth curved briefly, and he leaned over to whisper in his ear. Wei Xiao: ! The Wei Little Xiao who was blushing like a little lobster was finally coaxed into the bathtub. He blinked after he sank into the water: No way, no way, it was too deadly when the high and aloof great demon king spoke words of love! After he washed himself clean and came outside, Lu Feng had also finished bathing. Wei Xiao pounced over and kissed him. Lu Feng pecked him briefly on the lips. Sleep. Wei Xiao actually acted obedient and buried himself in his arms, sticking against him like a gummy candy. In fact, Lu Feng found it most difficult to hold back when he was like this. The hand that was around his waist tightened unconsciously. Wei Xiaos heated breath hit his neck. Captain. Lu Feng: Hm? Hed originally thought that Wei Xiao would start making trouble again, but unexpectedly, he whispered quietly, Will you feel aggrieved like this? Lu Feng was stunned for a moment. Wei Xiao didnt lift up his head and just rubbed against him in his arms. In the past, you were the most brilliant player in the canyon, getting the MVP in every game. Everyones attention was on you, but now youve become a foil. The youths soft voice rang out in the slightly empty room, warming Lu Fengs chest. Lu Feng laughed quietly and said sincerely, This is what I want. Wei Xiao lifted his head up abruptly, his bright eyes like a light rising up into the night sky. Really? Lu Feng pressed a kiss against his charming eyebrows. Of course. Wei Xiao pulled him close by the collar and kissed him on the lips, Not aggrieved? Lu Feng: Not at all. Wei Xiao smiled again, the emotions in his eyes confident and proud. Youll shine again too. Lu Feng couldnt shift his gaze away at all. Wei Xiao continued, When our teammates grow up, well light up the Glory Canyon together. In the old FTW, only Close was as bright as a star. In the current FTW, Closes brilliance had gradually faded. But the future FTW would be the brilliant glory of all five people! Lu Fengs heart beat very fast, and he ultimately couldnt help himself. Little Xiao. Wei Xiao: Hm? Lu Feng flipped over and pressed him down, a heated kiss landing on his collarbone. I wont go in. Wei Xiao: ! The author has something to say: A mans mouth Cough, the captain isnt lying! Little Lunatic Wei says darkly: Its better if its a lie. xiin: translation C the captain really doesnt go in but, oh man, WXs heart, its so big~ Chapter 199: Youre not old, but theres a lot of waste in your mind! Wei Xiao was kissed until he wasnt sure whether he was dead or alive. He moaned, In the bedside drawer Lu Feng bit the back of his neck. Wei Xiao felt a sting of pain and ultimately didnt dare to say the rest of his sentence. These actions tickled his heart. Captain Its okay Lu Feng didnt listen to him. The roots of Wei Xiaos thighs felt numb. It hurts. Lu Fengs movements slowed down slightly. Wei Xiao added a sentence, You can just go in. Lu Feng inhaled lightly, then turned him over to kiss him. Wei Xiao basically lost all resistance as soon as he was kissed, and his words, which made people feel embarrassed when hearing them, came out one after another. First came soft calls of captain, then it became boyfriend, then later, it was husband, big brother, and all sorts of other messy words. Lu Feng covered his mouth with his hand, and Wei Xiao licked him with his tongue. Lu Feng: The movements stopped, and Wei Xiao opened his eyes wide. Lu Feng breathed steadily. Im going to go take a shower. Wei Xiao: Ah Lu Feng got up, and Wei Xiao followed, hugging him, Dont go, you havent finished yet. Lu Feng looked down at him, his pair of lacquer black eyes full of desire. Wei Xiao trembled. He shrank back a little, but still couldnt control his mouth, I dont want the championship that comes later, I want you to feed me now. These were the words that Lu Feng had spoken to him in a low voice earlier in order to coax him to go wash up. They were the same words, which didnt affect Wei Xiao when he said them now, but listening to Lu Feng say them had made him blush thoroughly. Lu Feng poked his forehead. Dont mess around. Wei Xiao bowed his head to look and asked, Isnt that uncomfortable? Lu Feng: Uncomfortable. Wei Xiao: Then mm After being kissed fiercely, Wei Xiao was even less willing to let him go. Lu Feng controlled his voice and coaxed him, Be good. Wei Xiao retreated, but asked again, Just be a little lighter, a bit slower. Im sure I can stand Lu Feng felt a little helpless. If I could be gentler, would things be like this? Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng: Alright, Im going to go shower. Wei Xiao was unwilling. Then, Ill give you yea For better or worse, the captain hadnt gone to take a cold shower, and for better or worse, Wei Xiao hadnt been left unable to get out of bed. Wei Xiao was tired and satisfied, leaning into Lu Fengs embrace. Captain. Lu Feng stroked his back lightly. Wei Xiao: I feel that its better to direct it instead of blocking it. If you suppress it like this, when we win the championship, wont I be direct instead of blocking C referring to having sex, in case you missed it~ Lu Feng pinched his waist, Shut up. Wei Xiao: Ah! Affairs in the bedroom werent peaceful. Little Xiao wanted to sigh! Early the next morning, Wei Xiaos eyes were a blur. Im going with you for your morning run. Only by exercising would he be able to play for a longer time. He had to learn from the captain. Lu Feng looked at him. Can you open your eyes? Wei Xiao replied honestly, I cant. Lu Feng kissed him. Go sleep. Wei Xiao tugged at his clothing. Lu Feng leaned back against the head of the bed and patted him on the shoulder. It wasnt until Wei Xiao fell asleep again did Lu Feng carefully make his way downstairs. Wei Xiao didnt sleep in for too long this time and woke up at around ten oclock. There was naturally no one beside the bed anymore. Wei Xiao stretched himself and got up to wash, but didnt see anyone even after tossing about. Thinking of how Lu Feng must be working, he didnt go bother him. The base was quiet at 10 oclock. The cleaning aunties had finished their work and had already headed back. The staff in the back kitchen were still there, and seeing that Wei Xiao had come down, they asked, Want something to eat? Wei Xiao looked at the time, You dont need to bother. It would be noon soon, and he could wait until everyone else woke up to have lunch together. There was no need to prepare breakfast for him alone. Even Brother Soy was still sleeping. Wei Xiao was really bored, so he simply went to the training room to single queue and score points. Unexpectedly, he found an acquaintance online in his friends column as soon as he logged into the game. Wei Xiao: Captain Mos also up so early? The ID Laozi Has No Money was RRs Captain, Comrade Mo Hui. Coincidentally, Laozi Has No Money also sent him a message, Did you stay up all night? The two people who saw each others messages at the same time: Wei Xiao understood. Captain Mo hasnt slept all night? Money: You really got up quite early. Wei Xiao: So-so. Not as early as my captain. He had to bring up Close every three sentences; this was indeed Little Lunatic Wei. Mo Hui invited him, Come double queue? Wei Xiao thought to himself: Everyone says that the same type would repel each other. How come he attracted so many jungler kings? Last time hed gotten up early, hed encountered Asleep. This time, hed gotten up early and run into Mo Hui. Wei Xiao sighed and opened up his life mentor mode. Is Captain Mo having insomnia because of the semi-finals the day after tomorrow? Money: Why do you have to bring up the one thing that shouldnt be mentioned. Wei Xiao: Your familys Little Moon-moon is in such a good state this season. What are you afraid of? Mo Hui: Is it useful for him to be in a good state on his own? Wei Xiao: Oh, so it turns out that you cant do it? Mo Hui: Without waiting for Captain Mo to disdain him, Wei Xiao had already taken the initiative to say, I was wrong, I shouldnt say that a man cant do it. Mo Hui: Shut up, you! The two of them had already entered the game as they chatted. Wei Xiao was a jungler, and Money was also a jungler. When two junglers collided, there had to be a Wei Xiao easily took the mid-lane position and even picked the immortal warlock. Mo Hui: Ha, ha. Wei Xiao: Dont worry, Im as good as Little Moon-moon. Mo Hui took the death knight and replied, Dont worry, Im definitely worse than your captain. Wei Xiao laughed and unceremoniously sent out an emoticon to express his contempt. Mo Hui: Wasnt sleeping attractive? Why did he have to run into this little beast! The last person whod thought so was Sleep God, and later on, Sleep God Hey, Captain Mo, youre in dangerous territory. Unfortunately, hed already gotten onto the thiefs boat. Hed already started talking to Wei Xiao. Mo Huis jungler had its own style. He wasnt a jungler core player like Wei Xiao and Asleep, but he also wasnt the mindless weapon type either. He had good game awareness, but his weakness was that his sense of rhythm was a bit lacking. Playing games could also reveal a persons character. For example, it was difficult for Brother Cai to play any position other than support well, and it was hard for Wei Xiao to play support well. When it came to playing jungler, everyone had different personalities and different play styles. Wei Xiao was seemingly fierce and aggressive and was known as the little lunatic of the canyon, but in fact, he was very careful and sensitive to the overall situation. Asleep was the one who was really fierce. He wanted to crack open the canyon every time and might even blow up his own people. Close seemed quiet, like a calm and level sea, but only those caught in the sea knew what kind of great pressure he brought with him, regardless of whether it was to the enemy or his own team. Mo Hui had another style. He had decent game consciousness and his command was on point, but his rhythm was a bit lacking. He wasnt as fierce when it came to ganking people, but his victories were stable. He didnt go crazy, didnt go overboard, and went the middle route, stabilizing the whole team and making it more capable of enduring challenges. RRs highlight season came after Moonlit had joined the team. Moonlit and Mo Hui had a strong level of compatibility. One of them was a spiky thorn who only cared about performing well across the whole arena, while the other was a rock who stabilized the whole team. With these two as partners, RR didnt lose out at all. During winter training camp, Mo Hui had been indispensable when it came to RRs win against EVE. It wasnt that EVE didnt have a qualified jungler player. Rather, it was because EVEs jungler didnt have Mo Huis ability to hold back their own spiky thorn. There was someone to manage Moonlit. But nobody dared to manage God Xie. When the two of them got too into it, their teammates had no choice but to charge in with them. There were ten people in the game, and Mo Hui was the only one who was sober, so at least 70% of the reason why they won had to be credited to him. Wei Xiao was able to vaguely guess at Mo Huis concerns. Captain Fu restrains Little Moon a little. Mo Hui sighed, He has an advantage over me, too. Wei Xiao sighed with him. Hes not good to me, either. Mo Hui: You have Close, what the hell are you scared of. Wei Xiao was happy again. Thats true. Mo Huis teeth hurt. Mo Hui attacked him. Dont think that youll be able to win against that shriveled mouth crying team just by relying on Yue Wenle. Wei Xiao laughed loudly. Mo Hui: Your mid-laner will be schemed against until he dies by Old Fu. Based on Fu Lis brain, he wouldnt even need to write a script if he wanted to toy around with Ning Zhehan. He could just casually play around with him and be done with it. Wei Xiao replied steadily, Why are you looking down on my Little Ning? Mo Hui: Who cant see through him? Wei Xiao said somberly, Who knows? Money: Dont underestimate Fu Li. Wei Xiao: I dont look down on anyone. Mo Hui sighed. His own semi-finals results were uncertain. How would he have the spare feelings to worry about Wei Xiao? Wei Xiao continued, If you push down TPT and kill them off in the semi-finals, we wont have to be afraid at all. Mo Hui: Ha. Wei Xiao cheered for him, Come on, you can do it Captain Mo! Mo Hui was used to supporting the mid-lane out of habit. But hed only just arrived when he saw Wei Xiao kill the other sides mid-laner on his own. Alright then this stinky brats immortal warlock was really very good. Money continued to gossip with him, If winning was so easy, would I be here suffering from insomnia? Wei Xiao wondered out loud. Why do you feel so much pressure? Wei Xiao would understand if Asleep was the one with insomnia, and he wouldnt be surprised if Moonlit couldnt sleep, but Money? Based on Mo Huis life experiences, would he need to be flustered over a semifinals game? Money had no one else to talk to. If I still cant achieve results this season Wei Xiao had a sort of ominous feeling. Sure enough, Mo Huis words sounded like theyd come out of an online novel, I have to go back and inherit my family business! Wei Xiao: You rich people with your rich peoples world were really asking to be beaten up! Mo Hui said it like a joke, but he was really depressed inside. He said, I dont have your captains level of ability Even if I can afford RR, I cant run it, and my competition achievements are only like this Each family had its own worries. Those with money, those without money; anxiety was always fair and wouldnt leave anyone behind. Mo Hui was very frank with his words. His family wasnt crazy like Lu Fengs. His father and mother loved him very much, and he also had an elder sister above him. The Mo Family daughter was a strong woman. She was seven years older than Mo Hui and had already started shouldering the responsibilities of the Mo Group. Mo Huis family didnt have any expectations that their son had to be the one to inherit the family business. No matter whether it was their son or their daughter, whoever had the potential for it would be in charge of the business. They were treated equally. Big Sister Mo had been more excellent than Mo Hui as a child, and was very good with all kinds of elite education. Her grades were at the top year after year, and after graduation, she continued to be brilliant in everything. Mo Hui wasnt outstanding, but it was difficult to be outstanding when living in the shadow of such an outstanding sister. Money complained, Im really miserable. I was already being suppressed by my elder sister, and later, Lu Feng came back from abroad and was one of my classmates. I was crushed by him, too. Wei Xiao corrected him, My captain wouldnt crush you! Mo Hui: After choking for half a beat, Mo Hui said angrily, Youre not old, but theres a lot of waste in your mind! Wei Xiao: Isnt it because your words were too ambiguous. What did it mean to get hit in the face? Mo Hui: Can you focus on the key points or not! Wei Xiao caught the key point. Come on, come on, Captain Mo, please tell me more about what happened while my captain was still studying. Mo Hui: Who would want to stay up all night and start talking about Lu Feng so early! Mo Hui forcibly dragged the topic back on track, In short, nothing really went my way, but later on, my fellow classmates took me to play games, and I discovered a whole new world Living under the mountain that was his sister all year round, Mo Huis confidence had been worn away, and hed played Glory out of boredom. The killing spree hed achieved in the bronze ranked game had given him an unprecedented sense of achievement. After that, he fell in love with Glory and rushed into the professional circle without looking back. Wei Xiao couldnt help but interject, Its a pity that you still cant beat my captain in Glory. Mo Hui: .. Do you f*cking want to continue this conversation or not! Wei Xiao cleared his throat and comforted him, Of course, no one in the world can match my captain. Mo Hui choked. He wanted to go to sleep! Wei Xiao was afraid that he would go and AFK at the fountain, so he coaxed him, Alright, alright, we wont talk about my captain. You can continue. Money: Im going to continue with your uncle! Hed already said so much, but all he had to talk about was Close! Wei Xiao: Alright, alright, alright. Ill let you have my uncle. He didnt have an uncle anyway. Mo Hui: Why had he been stupid enough to have a conversation with Little Lunatic Wei! Although he was so angry that his liver arched, the conversation had already reached this point, and it would be even worse if he didnt continue. So, Mo Hui went on, Im 22 years old. My parents feel that its about enough, and I should settle down now and start doing proper things. Mo Huis heart felt unhappy as he spoke, What Im doing is something proper! Wei Xiao listened, Yes, yes, yes. Mo Hui: Could you be any more perfunctory? Wei Xiao: If you need me to, I really can. Mo Hui: Wei Xiao stole his blue buff. Captain Mo, lets make a deal. Mo Hui was too lazy to speak out loud and sent him a punctuation mark, ? Wei Xiao spoke his true feelings, Ill listen to you pour out your bitterness, and you can tell me about my captain when he was a child. Mo Hui: . If this wasnt a professional server, he would go and AFK right now! The author has something to say: Grandmaster Wei: Feeling a lot of pressure? Cant sleep? Come and chat with me [smile] [Strikethrough] Victim [strikethrough] Asleep: [Strikethrough] Victim [strikethrough] Money: Get lost! Chapter 200: Wei Xiao filled up with vinegar.So there really was a first love!” Money spoke in a fit of anger, Who wants to pour out their bitterness to you? Bye bye, see you later! Then, he thought about how he really didnt have anyone to talk about this to during this period of time, and eventually forced himself to put up with it. Wei Xiao also abided by their agreement and acted as a good listener. Moneys mood improved after two full games. Hed just changed his attitude towards Wei Xiao and felt that this brat could act human, then thought about what he was actually looking forward to. Suddenly Like hell he was human, he was definitely a beast! Wei Xiaos mouth might be bratty, but he listened very carefully. When it came to Mo Huis troubles, if an ordinary person heard about them, they might want to pick up the keyboard and kill him with it. Was this called trouble? Did the troubles of the rich all look like this? But, in fact, this was really very frustrating for Mo Hui. People would always have their own pursuits in life. Mo Hui still longed to gain recognition even if he was born in such a rich family. With such an outstanding sister, it was difficult for Mo Hui to be acknowledged in his existing circles. No matter how much he had in a material sense, a life without any sense of achievement was boring. It hadnt been easy for him to encounter Glory, and it hadnt been easy for him to make achievements in the professional arena. It hadnt been easy to gain the recognition of countless people, and Mo Hui didnt want to lose any of it. The age of 21, 22 was a bit awkward. He was the same age as Lu Feng, but his birthday came a bit before his. He wasnt old enough to retire, but he wasnt young either. It really wasnt time for him to fool around anymore. Mo Huis parents had given him three years of freedom. They hadnt interfered in his dreams of playing professionally, and they hadnt forced him to do anything. They hadnt even limited his pocket money and had let him enjoy himself happily. His parents had given him time, so he should know how to behave in this situation. RRs performance wasnt bad, and hed become a star player in China, but That small signing fee wasnt even enough to cover his Weibo lucky draws. Was he going to retire just like this? Mo Hui was unreconciled to the idea. RR had ushered in new traces of life and was climbing upwards. Hed waited for so long; how could he be willing to give up now! A game just ended, and the big Victory word pierced into his eyes, making Mo Huis nose grow sour. Victory. Victory. He wanted to win, wanted the championship, wanted to play in the globals, wanted to stand under the dazzling golden rain and represent the ultimate Glory! Wei Xiao continued to queue them for the next game. Just as they cut into the game screen, he asked one question, What are you thinking about it so much for? Money steadied his mood. You dont feel any pressure; you have no worries. Wei Xiao stared at the screen. I do have them. Close has already held on for three years; FTW has wasted three years. I cant let them lose again. Whats more, this year was the fourth year of the agreement. If they couldnt win the global championship this year, FTWs future would be uncertain. If Qing Lei pulled out, would the FTW that hadnt been able to succeed, be able to raise capital to continue operating? Even if there were investors that were interested, would they dare to invest with Qing Lei pressuring them? Of course, this gambling agreement didnt explicitly say that Lu Feng had to listen to everything Qing Lei wanted, but as Lu Fengs biological mother, Qing Lei could make use of this agreement to control many of his rights and interests. She could control FTW, and Lu Feng, as a descendant of the Lu Family, could even be used to check and balance Lu Mingze. This was the most disgusting aspect of Qing Leis character. Wei Xiao didnt dare to lose, and he couldnt lose. He couldnt imagine how Lu Feng had survived those first three years, but he would definitely accompany him to the peak this year. So that he could break away from Qing Lei, break away from the Lu Family, and just be himself. Mo Hui: Your captain doesnt have it easy. Wei Xiaos heart felt like it had been cut by a blunt knife. Mo Hui continued, I know a bit about his family. Aunt Qing is a little He didnt know how much Wei Xiao knew, so he didnt say too much about it. Wei Xiao didnt have any intention of exposing the captains scars. He repeated his earlier words, Theres really no need to think so much. He added the part that he hadnt finished before, Do your best to prove yourself. The people who love you will see it. Mo Hui was stunned. His heart, which had felt gloomy for days, suddenly lightened up slightly. Wei Xiao took the shadow thief in this game. He brushed out nine light arcs in the dragon pit, causing the chat channel to explode as they asked who he was. Wei Xiao typed, Look at my ID. Close? Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. Its I Love Close The Most! Money came back to his senses: Wheres your dignity! The other side was also choked by his words. In order to test out the shadow thief, they gathered in the mid-lane and started a wave of group fights. Mo Hui was playing mage in this game. His performance in the mid-lane was really mediocre, and Wei Xiao cursed at him over it from beginning to end. Mo Hui clumsily dealt out damage, so angry that his lungs hurt. We wont lose. Wei Xiao: We wont lose because Im damned amazing. Mo Hui couldnt find anything to refute him with. Wei Xiao sacrificed Money and took down a pentakill, stabilizing the situation. The other side didnt dare to act so arrogantly anymore as they grew a bit scared of the shadow thief. Wei Xiao was left with a bit of leisure time. Captain Mo, isnt it time to talk about my little captain now? The corner of Mo Huis mouth twitched. Little what? Wei Xiao: A young Close! It was really a sweet topic when he thought about it. Mo Hui naturally knew what he was talking about, but it made his skin break out with goosebumps. He was a good student, particularly outstanding. The previous person who was as outstanding as him in our school was my elder sister. It was really too damned cruel. First, there was his sister, and then there was a fellow classmate. Money really deserved to have gone into seclusion from all the comparisons. Wei Xiao: What else? Mo Hui thought back. His face was even more paralyzed than it is now, but he was just as handsome back then. Many people chased after him He spoke in general terms, saying that Lu Feng had basically been the model child back then. Hed been excellent in all aspects; he always got top grades, was good at sports, good at learning, good at following the rules, and was polite and handsome. The word impeccable seemed to have been tailor-made for him. Mo Hui felt a little sour as he spoke, Tell me, is this still He hadnt finished saying the word human when Wei Xiao interrupted him, Is that it? Mo Hui: ??? The disappointment in Wei Xiaos tone wasnt fake. Ive been chatting with you for three rounds, just for you to tell me things I already know? Mo Hui: Wei Xiao went back over it in detail. Excellence, top grades, being capable, handsome arent these all things that are well-known? Could his tone be anymore reasonable and righteous than it already was? Mo Hui didnt want to ask that out loud. He was afraid that Wei Xiao might really be able to pull it off! It just happened that theyd finished a game. Captain Mo decided to bail. Bye bye. Wei Xiao: Ah.. Mo Hui: Im going to sleep. Wei Xiao: ??? Hed been cheated by this evil businessman! When Brother Cai came over to call him out for lunch, Wei Xiao was still angry. Lu Feng came downstairs as well and asked, Whats the matter? Wei Xiao had originally intended to provoke Brother Cai to vent his anger, but it all turned into grievances as soon as he saw his boyfriend. Money bullied me. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao had nothing to feel embarrassed over in front of Brother Cai. He went up and kissed the captain, He lied to me and said that he had exclusive information about you when you were a child. As a result, he only said that you were good at learning, good at sports, good at everything, and handsome These are things that the whole world knows. I didnt need him to tell me that! Lu Feng: Brother Cai: Pfft In the future, he would absolutely never drink water when Wei Xiao was present! Wei Xiao felt aggrieved to death. I was cheated so miserably! He was extremely unhappy about having his expectations let down. Lu Feng was amused and asked him, What do you want to know? Wei Xiao thought about it. For example, your first love, the first person you liked. For example Lu Feng: In that case, youve asked the wrong person. Mo Hui wouldnt know. Wei Xiao filled up with vinegar. So there really was a first love! Lu Feng: Mm. This time, Wei Xiao blew up completely. This is, its also normal, theres no need no need to tell me about it! Ahhhhh, who was it, who exactly was it? Was it a boy or a girl, were they as handsome as he was? Were they better than he was? Did they love him as much as he did! Brother Cai was deeply unhappy. He tried to sneak out; he didnt want to become another Brother Soy and end up eating dog food. However, hed just made his way to the door and hadnt yet had a chance to close it when he heard the captains low voice that could turn anyone to mush. They were all you. Regardless of whether it was his first love or the first person he liked, they were all Wei Xiao. Bai Cai: I was wrong, I was wrong, I just want to be a person, and I dont want to have to eat this unique type of dog food! Later on, Money sent over a small gift. At first, Brother Cai thought it was something valuable and watched Wei Xiao eagerly looking forward to seeing him open it up. If Brother Xiao looked down on it, then he could take advantage and take it for himself. Wei Xiao didnt think too much of it and easily tore it open. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao fell into a daze for ten full seconds. There were three photos inside, and they seemed to have been taken from different angles The 14 year old showed the beginnings of the iceberg great demon king, but his expression as he looked up inadvertently, as well as his handsome features, still had the green and raw youthful spirit that was absolutely no longer present now. Close. Close from high school! Brother Cai sucked in a breath. The captain was really handsome from childhood growing up. Wei Xiao tensed up suddenly and looked warily at Bai Cai. Brother Cai: What? Wei Xiao: Youre not allowed to look! Bai Cai: Wei Xiao pressed the photos against his chest like they were treasures. The captains top secret private photos, only I can see them! If Bai Cai wasnt so timid, he would really want to spit at him! They were proper and serious photos, but why did they inexplicably seem dirty when the words came out of Wei Xiaos mouth! Sure enough, Wei Xiaos mouth was unable to spit out any normal language! In view of these three photos, Wei Xiao wrote off his original complaint against Money and even soloed with Money until late at night prior to their competition, playing with him until he was all fired up and in excellent condition. Lu Feng didnt know about the photos. Not angry anymore? Wei Xiao hadnt shown Lu Feng the photos. On one hand, he didnt want him to have to recall the past. On the other hand, he himself was really distressed. He felt heartache for the Lu Feng who had to excel in everything, and he felt even more heartache for the Lu Feng who still wasnt acknowledged by his parents Wei Xiao couldnt bear to touch such a scar. Wei Xiao: After thinking about it carefully, Captain Mo cant be blamed for it. Who made you so excellent that he can only see you in such a good light? He had to blow out rainbow farts every three sentences. The entire training room was already numb to this phenomenon. Lu Feng smiled as he sat down beside him, asking, Go and watch the game tomorrow? Tomorrow was the semi-finals game between RR and TPT. It just happened that Wei Xiao had something to discuss with him. Captain, I plan to stay in the base and livestream. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao blinked. Ill stream and provide live commentary for RR and TPTs game. Lu Feng: Did Xiang Liu order it? Wei Xiao: No, I applied for it on my own initiative. Its not for the sake of making up for stream time. Its mostly for the fans. In any case, they had to plan for the long term. If they wanted FTW to be independent, they had to be strong. Fans were their foundation. Only by consolidating their foundation would they be qualified to hold up FTW. Wei Xiao was very conscientious. Lu Feng vaguely understood what he was doing. His heart heated up slightly, and he wanted to say something, but felt that anything he said would be superfluous. Then, Ill stay with you. Wei Xiao didnt understand, Ah? Lu Feng said evenly, Ill provide commentary with you in the live broadcast tomorrow. Wei Xiao: ! Brother Cai, who was across from them, saw through the truth at a glanceCC Provide commentary for the game? It was totally livestreaming their show of love! Forget it, forget it, when it came to things like dog food, eating it alone wasnt as good as eating it with a crowd. It was really delicious when eaten together in front of others! xiin: chapter 200! were 2/3 of the way through the novel wow. Chapter 201.1: Isnt it fun to have a love triangle? The China competition zones 12th season second national semi-finals officially began at 7PM! Similar to the FTW and 3U games, the fans also crowded the venue for this game, screaming out the names of their favorite star players. RR Moonlit, RR Mo Hui, TPT Fu Li, TPT Eurostar All kinds of lights and fan merchandise were everywhere. RRs team color was dark blue, and TPTs team color was orange red. One was a cold color and the other a hot color, and they clearly divided up the venue! Wei Xiao was a little fortunate in that he hadnt gone to the scene even if he had entered from the backstage, it wouldve been super crowded! Hed posted up a Weibo post two hours in advance, telling fans that he would be holding a live broadcast session and commentating on the game. The fans rushed to tell each other about it, commenting and forwarding it tens of thousand times within minutes. It wasnt uncommon for professional players to provide live commentary on the games between other teams. Some teams would even ask famous players to come and commentate for them. Live broadcasting was an important assessment index for the players, and live broadcasting while commentating on a game was a better option compared to streaming themselves eating and sleeping in order to fill their broadcast quota. Firstly, it enhanced the players reputation, and secondly, it provided more interaction with the fans. Thirdly, it was a way of training and reviewing a game There were many advantages, and the clubs were always happy to see it happen. A Q fan quipped, The finals are coming up soon. Does darling still have to make up livestream time? Darling Wei didnt know how he himself had become a Darling, but it didnt matter. He even went and replied, I filled my quota a long time ago, this is just because I love you. The fans: !!! A comment thread was built up instantly, filled with shrill chicken screaming. Coincidentally, Close also forwarded this Weibo post, and his content was as concise as ever, Together. The fans had already been very excited, and they exploded on the spot once they saw Closes Weibo post. Together what? Its not what I think, is it? Is the great demon king going to commentate on the game tonight? Holy shit, fellow sisters, I dont want to go to the arena anymore. Does anyone want the tickets? Fellow sister, wake up, wouldnt it be great to watch the live broadcast on your cell phone from the arena? The previous poster is a fierce one. Lu Feng had been in the industry for many years, but he didnt livestream often, let alone provide commentary for a game. As the head of the club, he was better off dealing with the affairs of the club that piled up like a mountain when he had spare time. Whats more, he didnt speak much. How was this kind of silent character suited to provide commentary? The fans couldnt imagine it. But now Its all thanks to Quiet, thanks to Wei Xiaoxiao, thanks to the new generation jungler king. Youve created many miracles for us! Yeah, Quiet must have spoken up and asked for Close. How else would he come to explain the game? I want to know how Quiet asked. Was it in bed cough cough Hey fellow sister, lets go talk to the side! The straight men on the other side: Quiet and Close are commentating on a game? One is a chatterbox and the other has a paralyzed face it might really be good. Its time to verify the truth about the rumors about the feud between the twin junglers in FTW! The haters were also poised and ready to go. Waiting to see them mess up. Is being a commentator so easy? If you cant highlight the key points, well be laughing so hard our teeth fall out. Quiets only been in the business for a year, doesnt he feel embarrassed providing commentary for a competition? Who gave him that right? Hahaha, its estimated that hes just going to show his face. FTWs nothing but a bunch of little white faces anyway. The advantages of Wei Xiao acting wild in his daily life was revealed at this point. He replied blatantly under Closes Weibo post, Memeda. The fans were used to it and even followed suit to memeda with him. Some sharp-eyed fans found a blind spot, The great demon king liked Wei Xiaos reply! Whats the fuss about? Isnt it just a memeda Now! What Close liked was the reply that Wei Xiao gave to his fans. Thats right, what Lu Feng had liked was Wei Xiaos reply to his fans, that sentence its just because I love you. The fans figured it out. Is he jealous! Wuwuwuwu, the CP I ship is real, theyre really real! Glorys vinegar king, he has a well-deserved reputation. Sitting and waiting for when Quiet cant get out of bed. The fans never wouldve dreamed that the things they came up with in their brains would come true. Wei Xiaos scalp tensed up, and he wanted to delete the comment. He hovered over the delete button and paused. He couldnt delete it. If he deleted it, then it would be like a confirmation. There was no other way; Wei Xiao could only go to the captain and act spoiled in order to coax the vinegar king. Wei Xiao opened up the live broadcast studio five minutes ahead of time. He was just chatting with his fans when he received a call from Lu Feng. Captain~ The scrolling comments: Why does his call of captain sound so sweet! Kay. The scrolling comments: What a well-behaved tone, he really is a darling! Its okay, its okay, Ill wait for you~ The scrolling comments: These two are really sweet. Even if its just a touching brotherhood, their feelings are enough to kill people. After hanging up the phone, Wei Xiao explained the situation to the fans, Something suddenly came up for the captain, so hell come later. Closes dedicated fans were disappointed and started cursing and crying in the scrolling comments. Wei Xiao blocked those who cursed and coaxed the crying ones, The captain will come in a bit, well wait for him together. Be good. This be good shocked the ears of thousands of girls, and they cried even more fiercely. They wanted God Q to keep coaxing them. The door opened, and Bai Cai came in. The camera didnt show who was coming in. The audience in the scrolling comments asked who it was one after another, excitedly thinking that Close had returned quickly. Wei Xiao turned around and saw that it was Brother Cai. Bai Cai used his mouth to shape the words: Is the live broadcast on? Wei Xiao: Brother Cai, come join me? Bai Cai got it. He immediately put on his appearance as FTWs simple little wife, looking polite as he said, The captain said that hell come later, so he asked me to come accompany you for the live broadcast for a while. Even if Wei Xiao had seen it many times, he still couldnt stand Bai Caicais current fake appearance. Okay. His teeth hurt, and he didnt want to say much. The audience in the scrolling comments were a little disappointed when they heard Bai Cais voice, but they soon grew energetic again. First comes the little wife, then the great demon king. Isnt it fun to have a love triangle? Yes, yes, the jungler kings little wife, the little wifes great demon king, the great demon kings jungler king, perfect! Mixing things up is the best way! Fellow sisters, charge! Some straight men couldnt watch on anymore. Can you guys stop shipping CPs? This is a game commentary broadcast. As soon as this sentence popped out, it was immediately pressed to the bottom by thousands of other scrolling comments and didnt even leave a ripple. A players personal life broadcast room was much smaller than the official one. It was intended for entertainment and would be boring if it was too serious, so the room managers didnt interfere too much. After Bai Cai sat down, the player interviews began on the screen. Moonlit always had dead fish eyes and would reply with just a single sentence for every sentence he was asked. Hed basically stopped short of having the words this big daddy doesnt want to talk written on his face. Money was in a good state, talking and laughing with the host. TPTs Eurostar-star smiled, eliciting screams from the audience. Eurostar was born with a baby face and looked just as young as Yue Wenle, but his personality was livelier than God Les. He had curved crescent eyes and a pair of tiger teeth, and he was able to make others feel extra heartache for him when he smiled. Fu Li wore a pair of gold rimmed glasses, and his TPT uniform was neat and tidy. His temperament was more like that of a coach than a player, and he did actually take on some of a coachs duties Wei Xiao introduced each contestant in a light tone as they stepped up onto the stage. If he was going to do it, then he would do it professionally. As a retired student from a Normal University with a score of 985, Wei Xiao was very good with Mandarin and very smooth with his words. Brother Cai had been partnered with him for many years. One of them cracked jokes while the other provided support, inspiring the fans to start sending out gifts even before theyd officially started providing commentary. They asked about gossip topics as they sent out gifts. Grandmaster, grandmaster! Who do you think is more powerful, Moonlit or Eurostar? Wei Xiao: Moonlit is a bit more powerful. Some of the TPT fans were immediately dissatisfied, even wanting to make trouble. Wei Xiaos next sentence was, Back then when I was an accompanying player, Little Moon-moon booked me for three more games than Little Star-star. Fans: ??? Wei Xiao tilted his head and asked Brother Cai, I didnt remember wrong, right? Brother Cai: Moon God played 352 games, and Star God played 349. The fans got it. So when you say that Moonlit is a bit more powerful, this is the unit of measurement that youre using? You hammered Moonlit three extra times, so hes more powerful? The fans were left speechless, but they had no way to refute it. What was there to refute? That scrolling comment was obviously a trap, and it could only be said that Wei Xiao had smoothed things out beautifully. Of course, the scrolling comments wouldnt let him off just like this. Grandmaster, I heard that Eurostar switched lanes because you beat him up until he got scared? In the past, Eurostar had played in the top-laner position, but now hed switched to the bottom lane. This was another trap question. What did they mean by beating him up until he got scared? It was true that that was what had happened, but it was obvious that this question was being asked for the sake of looking for trouble. If it was just a casual question, then it could be overlooked. But theyd also sent gifts with it, and that bright scrolling comment frame couldnt be ignored. Wei Xiao glanced at it and didnt shy away. Isnt his marksman good? This rebounded the question back into that persons face. Why are you concerned about why he changed lanes? So what if he was beaten up until he was scared, Eurostars current achievements were solid. Chapter 201.2: This the real reason why Brother Cai got a glass of watermelon juice? Eurostar wasnt like Moonlit and Asleep. He hadnt been popular as soon as he made his debut. At the start of that year, hed basically been scolded to death directly when he went to the top lane. It was thanks to his toughness that he didnt collapse from the scolding. Instead, hed gone to find Bai Cai in order to seek a breakthrough. Brother Cai wouldnt refuse anyone who came; it was fine as long as they gave money. Hed originally thought that this crybaby Eurostar would back down after only two games, but unexpectedly, hed continued on for 100 games. Seeing as his win rate was as low as 5%, Wei Xiao couldnt bear it anymore and gave this duped star some advice, Do you have to play in the top lane? Eurostar was stunned. Wei Xiao: Glory isnt only limited to the top lane. Or is it that you only like warriors? Eurostar paused, then said, The team only has a top-lane position. Wei Xiao: Thats not how it works, right? Forcing yourself to play on a lane youre not good at, isnt that even more disappointing for the person who signed you to the team? In e-sports, being crappy was the original sin, and the rest was nonsense. The team only has a top-laner position, so you insist on playing in the top-laner position youre not good at? Eurostar was obviously not like a certain all-rounder king. Him acting like this wasnt only making a joke out of himself, he was also making a joke out of the whole team. Admittedly, newcomers who had just joined the professional circle would all make compromises and force themselves to do more, but results were the fundamental requirement for everything. If he couldnt achieve results, then he would just drag everyone down. If he didnt stand up bravely and give it a try, how would he know that it wasnt possible? After going into seclusion for two days, Eurostar went to find Wei Xiao again. Can you accompany me to practice marksman? Bai Cai answered, Just pay money. He was afraid that Wei Xiao might get too excited and not even ask for money. Wei Xiao: Anythings fine. Everything was good as long as he could play! After another 100 games, Eurostars win rate rose to 40% from 5%. He was almost even with Wei Xiao. Of course, if Wei Xiao used the thief, Eurostars win rate would instantly drop back down to 20%. But this level of progress was already impressive enough. Eurostar summoned up his courage and went to apply for a change in positions with his club. Hed originally thought that hed be rejected, but the club was stunned for a short moment before saying, What a coincidence, Lu Shou also wants to switch lanes Lu Shou was TPT ADC at the time, and his play style had always been steady. It wasnt good, but it didnt drag anyone down. Eurostar hadnt expected that he wouldnt want to play ADC anymore. The coaching staff called the two of them over directly and asked them about it in detail. Eurostar and Lu Shou both looked at each other, You actually want to play top-lane (ADC)! At this moment, both of them grimaced and cried. cried C reference to their team name TPT If theyd known earlier, they wouldnt have been forced into these positions. It was also from this moment that the revolutionary friendship between the TPTs top-laner and bottom lane was established. Even though they were the furthest away from each other in the canyon, they were filled with energy as long as they looked at each other! CCThey had to live up to the position that theyd been given! Of course, these things certainly couldnt be said in the live broadcast room, but Wei Xiao and Bai Cai both reminisced about it on their own for a while. Be brave and step up. There may be surprises waiting everywhere. After chatting for a while, the first game began. Moonlit was unable to get the immortal warlock, but he got an equally powerful assassin mageCCthe spirit mage. Who knew if it was a leftover effect from his solo with Wei Xiao yesterday or if it was because it was the first game of the semi-finals, but Moonlit suppressed Fu Li back under the tower right at the start of the game. The spirit mage was a talent that wasnt very fierce at the start of the game. Especially when it still didnt have its ultimate move, all of its damage was directed towards a single target, and even clearing out the lane soldiers was difficult. But Moonlit didnt even think of clearing his lane soldiers right from the start. He focused on Fu Li, and as soon as the demonic mage showed his head, he rushed over with his first and second skill combo, linking up his controls to beat him up and clearing out half his health. He only went back to slowly clear out his lane soldiers after Fu Li was forced to withdraw. Wei Xiao: The conventional way to play the spirit mage is to absolutely not cower at the start. If you can hit a player, then dont hit the soldiers. Going under the other sides tower to force a kill with your own life is still better than hiding beneath your own tower. Seeming to confirm his statement, Moonlit used another small combo as soon as the next wave of lane soldiers arrived and hammered Fu Li like crazy. The demonic mage was squishy and had limited movement ability. He couldnt stand this kind of damage and had to use his flash. Unexpectedly, Moonlit used flash followed by his first skill and charged beneath the tower to kill Fu Li! RR took First Blood. Although Moonlit died as well, hed still earned first blood while ruthlessly suppressing Fu Li. The scrolling comments cheered one after another, Badass, Moonlit! Today is the battle for the number one mid-laner in China! At present, Moonlit is dominating! Sure enough, a spearhead will conquer steadiness. Captain Fus very aggrieved. Dont panic. The grimacing crying team always cries first, then laughs at the end. The scrolling comments began to ask tricky questions again, Grandmaster, who do you think is stronger, Moon God or God Li? Wei Xiao was very calm. Little Moons immortal warlock is very strong, and Captain Fus ability to plan is invincible. Pulling him into a trap? Impossible. Brother Xiao was more than up to the task. RRs fierce start seemed to make the game very difficult for TPT. After First Blood broke out in the mid lane, the two sides played stably for a period of time. It was mainly TPT avoiding fights as they strove to develop. Wei Xiaos commentary was very steady. He didnt run his mouth and didnt make any quips. He analyzed the situation seriously. Until someone tried to make trouble again. This person even sent out three sets of 666 rockets just to ask Wei Xiao a question, God Q, between RR and TPT, which team do you want to meet in the finals? In other words, which team do you want to win? Which team were you afraid of? What are your thoughts when you watch the game? In fact, everyone was curious about this, but they felt embarrassed asking. Now that this person had spoken up and sent out so many gifts, Wei Xiao couldnt act as though he hadnt seen the question. Brother Cai stared at this scrolling comment, glancing at Wei Xiao out of the corner of his eye. Wei Xiaos expression remained unchanged as he said evenly, It doesnt matter. The scrolling comments werent happy with an answer like this. They continued asking, It doesnt matter who wins? Wei Xiao was very zen. Regardless of whether its RR or TPT, theyve all been defeated by FTW before. It doesnt matter who enters the finals, since the champion will be FTW. The scrolling comments: !!! There was also a series of: And: Hahahahahahaha really worthy of being you. Wei Xiao asked them innocently, Did I say something wrong? The one picking a fight: The haters: Those who wanted to watch as much excitement as possible The fans yelled, Whatever you say is right! Youre so handsome, whatever you say is right! Wei Xiaos shamelessness was also absolute. Ho, Im not that handsome, Im a little worse than my captain. The fans were laughing so hard they were all rolling all over the live broadcast room! Brother Cai was also impressed. When it came to his public relations (irritating haters) ability, Wei Xiao was really gifted! The first game ended. RR had scored one point. RRs fans screamed one after another, acting so excited that it was like theyd already won the semi-finals and made it to the finals. The TPT fans didnt start crying, either. As fans of the grimacing crying team, theyd already prepared their quick-acting heart-saving pills and were very zen. There was no helping it TPT was famous for its slow warm up. It was normal for them to catch up in a reverse sweep after losing one game. Winning three in a row after losing two was also unsurprising. So what if they lost one match? As long as they didnt lose three in a row, they would still be able to hold on! The BP for the second game began just as the door behind Wei Xiao opened. The fans had sharp ears. Although they couldnt see him, theyd already started getting excited. Close is back? Quickly let me see my husband, I miss him! Husband, husband, I love you! This time, it was really Lu Feng. Lu Feng was holding two glasses of watermelon juice as he looked at Bai Cai. Brother Cai immediately got up from his seat. The scrolling comments laughed at him. My little wife has already become a little eunuch. What have you experienced, Brother Cai?! Bai Cai glanced at the scrolling comments out of the corner of his eye and complained in his heart, Ive gone through tons of dog food! Lu Feng gave Bai Cai one of the drinks. Bai Cai didnt dare to accept it and quickly said, I dont want it, I dont want it. Lu Feng: Take it. Bai Cai: Okay. This scene was captured on camera, causing the fans to scream shrilly again, The great demon king is doting on his little wife! Yingyingying, I want to drink watermelon juice, too! Brother Cai, lets fight! Im your 10086th love rival! Bai Cai didnt dare to look at the scrolling comments anymore and just wanted to run away, but he was still half a step too slow. Wei Xiao had also accepted the watermelon juice. He drank a sip of it. Its so sweet! Lu Feng: Is it? Wei Xiao: You try it. Lu Feng drank a sip from the juice in his hand. Mm. Wei Xiaos eyes curved. Isnt it sweet? Lu Feng: Yes. The scrolling comments exploded! Holy shit! So is this the real reason why Brother Cai got a glass of watermelon juice?! Two glasses of watermelon juice, one for Brother Cai so that Close could only drink from Quiets glass? So sweet, Ive been killed across the screen by this scene! Whats going on between men and men now? Cant they leave us with a way to live? Wow! Wei Xiao glanced at the camera and grinned as he made an introduction. Hello everyone, this is my captain. The scrolling comments: .. To hell with your introduction, who doesnt recognize Close?! Wei Xiao was very energetic. Hell now be my partner as we provide commentary on the game together. The scrolling comments were filled with nonsense, nonsense, hurry up and let the great demon king speak. Then, they saw Lu Feng curve his lips in a smile. Hello, everyone. The scrolling comments: !!! Damn it. Theyd been able to see Close smile in this lifetime and could now die without any regrets! After that, they learned more about what it meant to be the great demon king. It was no wonder the game officials never invited Close to be a guest in the commentator booth. It was no wonder that the commentators all replied with a wry smile and shook their heads, saying that they didnt want to partner with Close for commentary. It wasnt that he was like an iceberg or that he didnt speak, and it wasnt that he couldnt pick up the thread of the conversation. It was that he He was as prophetic as a god! Chapter 202.1: Quiet, rest for a bit. Give my Close a chance to talk, okay? At this time, the audience in the live broadcast studio still didnt know what they were about to experience. They were excitedly shipping their CP, so dizzy and oblivious with happiness that they had even scared away a group of straight menCCnaturally, these people eventually came back in a hurry in order to see the prophecy emperor. The BP segment for the second match ended in the time when they were drinking watermelon juice, and both sides entered the game. In this match, Moonlit was still playing an assassin mage talent. Hed gotten the blade mage. From its name, it was clear that it was a close combat talent. The blade mage dealt magic attacks, but its weapon was a sharp dagger. It had a rare set of three movement skills that allowed it to burst in and harvest a sudden kill. While it was a mage position, it could be just as fierce as an assassin. Fu Li had chosen a very unpopular mage talentCCthe poison mage. The poison mage was strong, but it now resided amongst the benched talents and hadnt been seen in the arena for many years. The commentators were surprised when they saw this talent, and concern for TPT was expressed both implicitly and explicitly in their words. At first glance, the poison mage seemed very strong. Its skills were mainly focused on poison attacks that could break through defense and deal sustained damage. Its ultimate move, poison swamp, was an AOE skill with a wide range. So why didnt professional players use such an amazing mage talent? It was because it had limited adaptability, and its continuous damage could be avoided. The defense reduction wasnt useful against squishy c-positions, and poison swamp had a wide range that dealtt no damage against targets that werent locked in place. As a talent that didnt have any control skills, dealt unstable DPS, and didnt have any other functions, it wasnt strange for it to remain benched. Wei Xiao also frowned when he looked at the poison mage. Is TPT trying out a new routine? He wasnt one to look down on Fu Li. Lu Fengs thin lips shifted slightly. The audience couldnt hear what hed said, but Wei Xiao heard it. His eyes opened wide. Is that so? Lu Feng nodded. The scrolling comments were curious enough to die. What did the great demon king say! Why did he only say it to Quiet? I want to have Close whisper into my ear too! Where are the masters of lip reading? Please come and translate it quickly. There werent any lip reading masters, but there were a bunch of lip reading guessers. I think the great demon king said I love you. Nonsense, its clearly little darling. Nonono, my husband would only confess to me, so he must have said I love Little Fei! The scrolling comments became the scene of multiple rounds of guesses. Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. Ill tell you guys what he said after the game. Scrolling comments: ??? Why is he going to keep us guessing? Is it because we havent sent out enough gifts? 888 rockets flew across the screen. Wei Xiao said, It wont be fun if I say it now, believe me. The answer will be revealed when the game is over! Alright then, Wei Xiao was very good at playing this game and really had a godly ability to whet peoples appetites. When RR and TPT played against each other, the mid-lane was the place that attracted everyones attention. Moonlit and Fu Lis battle was something that more than 70% of the audience was looking forward to. In this game, Fu Li changed his style from the first matchs careful steadiness and pushed towards the front. The poison mages demonic gas bombs were tossed out everywhere, perfectly limiting the blade mages positioning. The scrolling comments sensed something. This poison mage restrains Moonlit quite a bit. So an assassin mage in the mid-lane fears the poison mage? Ive learned something! Fu Lis really worthy of being Glorys Learning God. He really has a lot of tricks! Once Moonlit was suppressed, RRs situation in the game would become more precarious. Mo Hui came to the middle lane to gank, but Fu Li was very careful. He used his demonic gas bombs to probe the bushes and exposed Mo Hui, avoiding a wave of fighting. During the first ten minutes of the match, Lu Feng didnt speak much at all. Wei Xiao was already used to it. The captain didnt like to speak, but he could chatter enough for both of them on his own. But the fans werent happy. Quiet, rest for a bit. Give my Close a chance to talk, okay? Wei Xiao noticed this scrolling comment and ignored it. The fans persevered. Im here to see two peoples live broadcast, not here to listen to your monologue! Wei Xiao continued to ignore it. The fans continued to kick up a fuss. In the past, I really didnt find Quiet so boring, but its really boring when you hear too much of him. Lu Fengs eyebrows raised up slightly. Someone caught this detail. The great demon kings angry. Where did this fool come from? The room managers should quickly shove him out with a pitchfork. Wei Xiaos fans also started to quarrel, Get lost if you find it annoying. Take a good look, this is Quiets live broadcast room! Seeing that the scrolling comments werent harmonious anymore, Lu Feng suddenly opened his mouth, Moonlit shouldnt have gone up for this round. Everyone, including Wei Xiao, was stunned as soon as he opened his mouth. His voice was magnetic, his tone gentle, The quality of this sound travelled through the microphone all the way to the bottom of countless peoples hearts. The scrolling comments suddenly went crazy, and the content of their comments were enough to make outsiders think that theyd mistakenly entered some idols live broadcast room Wei Xiao inevitably experienced a round of vinegarCCwhat the hell are you calling husband for, hes mine! Unfortunately, these words couldnt be said in public. The female fans didnt pay attention to what Lu Feng had said and only focused on the sound of his voice. The male audience did pay attention. They commented, Why shouldnt he have gone up? The commentators said that Moonlit had grasped this opportunity well. Then, the scrolling comments were hit in the face just after theyd spoken. RR sent out two kills, explosively giving TPT a wave of fertilizer. The commentators changed their tune. Its a bit unfortunate. The timing was good, though Just now, RR and TPT had started fighting in the river. Moonlit had locked in on the poison mage and moved in, using his dagger with a movement skill to arrive right in front of Fu Lis face. The commentator had immediately said, Beautiful! Moonlits wave of actions here is very stable, the poison mage is going to be sent home He hadnt yet finished his words when Lu Feng had said, Moonlit shouldnt have gone up. It was the same scene, but Lu Feng and the commentator had given different evaluations. Who was right and who was wrong would soon be made clear. Moonlit had indeed managed to stab Fu Li. Unfortunately, the poison mage was standing within the effect of his demonic gas bomb and resisted most of the damage. At the same time, he turned back and laid out his poison swamp. After Moonlit landed on the ground, his body became eroded by the poison gas, and his health fell continuously. That alone wasnt enough to kill Moonlit. He had multiple movement skills and could leave a poison swamp that had no ability to keep him in place. Unfortunately, Fu Li had calculated it very well, and when the swamp spread out far enough to reach the ancient creature, it was aggroed and roared. The dragons roar affected the ground like an earthquake, and all creatures within range would be dazed for 0.5 seconds. Fu Li stood in his own poison swamp and received no damage, but Moonlit missed his chance to escape the poison swamp due to this short 0.5 seconds of control. System AnnouncementCC TPT.Auroral killed RR.Moonlit! After Fu Li killed Moonlit, RRs support also followed him back home. Hed originally intended to come and support Moonlit so that they could fight back after he left the poison swamp, but unexpectedly, Moonlit had died just like that! He turned around and ran. Reasonably speaking, Fu Li shouldnt have been able to get to him, but unfortunately, Eurostar had also come over to provide support. One ice arrow shot over, so accurately that it made peoples scalps go numb, and helped RRs support back to his home fountain after he was controlled to death. RR used these two kills to tell everyone that Lu Fengs words werent wrong at all. They shouldnt have gone up. Moonlit really shouldnt have gone up to fight. The scrolling comments, who only realized what had happened after the fact, were shocked. Nothing happens when the great demon king doesnt speak, but as soon as he does, its a godly prophecy. If Close didnt have this game awareness, how would he deserve the title of number one in the world? Its just a blind cat running into a dead mouse. Dont exaggerate it. If Close really has this so-called godly prophecy, then why are FTWs team fights so terrible? If it was said that Wei Xiao made use of his intelligence and wit to antagonize the haters, then Lu Feng directly used his strength to face the flamers in the scrolling comments. A blind cat running into a dead mouse? Then there were really too many dead mice. Close didnt deserve to have this godly prophetic power? Im sorry, but the development route for this match had already been laid out by the great demon king. At first, Wei Xiao just felt that it was super cool! Oh hey, it was too cool. This clean and crisp face slapping that made the flamers faces swell up so much that they didnt dare to speak up; it made him feel great. Later on, he was just as thrilled and surprised as the scrolling comments. Lu Feng didnt say much, but his few comments repeatedly hit the key points spot on. CCMoonlit was being reckless. There was no need to think about it; Moon God died. The only difference was in whod gotten the kill. CCEurostar shouldve gone up. There was no need to think about it; Eurostar missed out on two kills, making people want to grasp their own wrists in disappointment. CCRRs support was one step too slow. Good heavens, Mo Hui, whod just managed to escape with a sliver of his health, died from poison. CCTPTs going for the dragon. Three seconds after his voice fell, the ancient creature was awakened 20 minutes later, the scrolling comments were filled with exclamation marks. Am I watching the game live? How come its so much like a post-game replay? Whats going on with this style of commentary where everythings been seen through? If it wasnt for the camera, Id suspect that the great demon king was at the scene! There was a small delay between the live situation and the live broadcast, which was just in line with the time difference for his advanced judgements. However, the camera was very stable. Both people were in the shot, and the training room could be seen behind them. It couldnt be faked. But there were others who werent satisfied. Even senior commentators cant discern situations like this. I dont believe that Lu Feng can see it so clearly! Luck, its luck! Its definitely just a coincidence! The success rate of these coincidences is a bit high Such good luck is even scarier than godly prophecy, okay. The second match progressed to 35 minutes. Lu Feng dropped his gaze and asked Wei Xiao, There are snacks downstairs, do you want to eat some? Wei Xiao was still staring at the game. Wait until the game ends He blinked as he spoke, then looked at the captain. So you mean to say, the game is coming to an end? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao exclaimed, RR really lost! His voice had just fallen when TPTs support used an acceleration buff. The five TPT players moved like a gust of wind and rushed at the five RR players who were gathered in the middle lane. The poison swamp covered the river, and RR was destroyed after a wave of explosive DPS from TPTs frost hunter. TPT drew even with RR at 1:1! xiin: happy 5.20~ Chapter 202.2: Quiet! Quickly block your captains mouth! The scrolling comments were convinced. Utterly convinced. Even without mentioning the fans who liked to boast about Close, even passerby watchers were blowing out rainbow farts. Someone also thought about what had happened earlier and asked Wei Xiao, The second match is over, Quiet, quickly tell us what Close said at the start! When the game just started, Lu Feng had whispered something to Wei Xiao. There were still people waiting to know what it was, hey. Wei Xiao: I said it just now. The audience was confused: ??? Wei Xiao repeated his own words, RR really lost. The fans in the live broadcast were confused for a while, and then the screen filled with holy shit! What else couldnt be understood? At the start of the match, the sentence Lu Feng had said to Wei Xiao wasCCIt would be very difficult for RR to win. The game hadnt yet started, and only the line-up had been determined when Lu Feng gave this evaluation. Wei Xiao was afraid that hed end up slapping himself in the face, so he hadnt said it out loud. Now that RR had lost this match, there wasnt anything to hide. The scrolling comments were howling like wolves and crying like ghosts. I reject this seeing through everything commentary style, this is no kind of game watching experience! This match doesnt count! I f*cking feel like a recluse watching it! Seriously, I dont even know how RR and TPT played in this game. I spent the whole time listening to the great demon kings predictions and waiting for him to mess up. Can I ask if the great demon king messed up? Like hell he messed up! Laozis mental state has collapsed! Some fans went back over past events. To be fair, Close didnt really want to speak up at first, but there were some idiots who insisted that he talk?! They even said that Quiet spoke too much and disdained him for being annoying. Dont you feel great now? Fellow sister, be careful. Your train of thought is pretty good. Isnt that how it went? The great prophet remained silent for the first ten minutes, but after the flamers started hating on Quiet, the seeing through everything commentary style came into being. Dont you guys have a sense of what really happened in your hearts? !!! Is he really so indulgent! Is our Quiet not worth it? Worth it, worth it, but the problem is What do you mean, problem? Are you doubting our great demon kings abilities? Dont ask, if you ask, then it was the CP fans having fun shipping and enjoying so much sugar that theyd spiralled up to the sky. Wei Xiao liked watching these scrolling comments. Unfortunately, there wasnt a little like button function, otherwise hed be clicking it until his hands went soft. There were some haters who were still unconvinced. They always felt that it was just a luck bonus and refused to accept that Close was really so amazing even if they were beaten to death. Wei Xiao happily ate his snacks and spoke even lessCC Since you guys are happy watching this seeing through everything commentary, then hed let them all be fully satisfied. When the third game started, Lu Feng became even more excessive. His godly prophecies came into effect starting from the BP segment. RR took the death knight. Lu Feng: Storm hunter and spirit mage. TPT really locked in these two talents! It was RRs turn after that. Lu Feng: Giant shaman. RR locked it in. Lu Feng: Butterfly warlock. It wasnt just the scrolling comments, even Wei Xiao was surprised. This The audience in the scrolling comments helped him finish his words, Is the great demon king holding the script for this game! This is too terrible. Its making me suspect that Ive already gone blind even though Im seeing it with my own eyes! The scrolling comments were filled with questions asking how it was done. Lu Feng ignored them all until Wei Xiao blinked and asked, How are you so accurate? Only then did Lu Feng explain it to him slowly, The giant shaman and butterfly warlock is RRs most recent fixed combination. It was specially prepared in order to target the storm hunter He spoke every word and sentence for Wei Xiao to listen to, but the livestream was also able to hear and understand it clearly. All the questioning voices disappeared. How was this a godly prophecy or a godly prejudgement? This was all based on having done enough homework! Line-ups, routines, player characteristics, team cooperation playstyles, coaching habits All of these things had to be understood thoroughly in order to infer the talent selections based off of the ban positions, then deduce the next talent that would be selected based on the pre-selected talents. What appeared to be a mysterious ability was actually based on thoroughly logical and careful reasoning. The third game continued into the 20th minute, and the scrolling comments started begging for mercy. Quiet! Quickly block your captains mouth! You can use any sort of method. I cant take any more of this seeing through everything commentary! I admit that Closes voice sounds good, but Can you please quietly eat some snacks? Yes, yes, yes. Quiet, quickly feed your captain a walnut crisp. He must be hungry! Wei Xiao was very calm. My captain doesnt like eating sweet things. The scrolling comments: Nonsense. Watermelon juice is so sweet, but he drank half of it! The corner of Wei Xiaos mouth curved up. Thats not the same. The audience was clear about this too; the sweetness of juice wasnt the same as dessert, but they still had to act bratty with their words. How is it different? Is it because you two kissed indirectly? Wei Xiao was satisfied: You guys are clever. But his words were still putting on an act, How can juice and dessert be the same! This anchor and audience had really mixed up reality and lies until they were all left in a state of silliness, unable to tell anything apart. Wei Xiao really went to feed Lu Feng a biscuit that wasnt too sweet. Lu Feng quietly ate it and let off the audience in the live broadcast room. In the third match, TPT really went in guns blazing. They pressured RR right from the start and didnt give Moonlit any chance to breathe. TPTs fans all said that the grimacing crying team warmed up slowly, but that wasnt actually the case. This was one of Fu Lis old problems. He would test the waters and do some training in the first game. If they won, then they had really earned something, and they didnt make a loss if they lost. They only started playing seriously from the second game. Their routines, strategy, awareness, and grasp of the overall situation was all extremely strong. This feeling was weakened for the audience watching from the gods perspective, but this feeling of decisiveness could be felt deeply in the canyon. Even if the great prophet didnt speak, the audience could see that for this third game RR had gone astray. Wei Xiao also found it regrettable. Not good. He changed angles and watched Mo Hui as he played his jungler. Mo Hui had taken the death knight in this game. Using the death knight to play the jungler position was a conventional choice. Money was pretty good with it, and hed provided support at key points several times. Unfortunately, Fu Li had already seen through him and would either avoid fighting him or counter attack him, making it so that RR couldnt gain the slightest advantage. The gap in their farm was widening and was getting close to a 4000 gold difference. At the end of the day, Wei Xiao was a little biasedCCand those three photos had played a role in that. He didnt want Mo Hui to lose like this. Try a little harder. Dont you want to let your family see? Wei Xiao spoke these words in his heart. Lu Feng noticed his abnormality, but he didnt ask him more about it since they were streaming. He only said quietly, RR isnt weak in the late stage. Wei Xiaos eyes lit up. They still have hope? Lu Feng: Itll depend on the death knight. Wei Xiaos heart rose up again. Previously, there were many things Wei Xiao hadnt said when he chatted with Mo Hui. To Wei Xiao, Moneys troubles were something to be envious of with the word ENVY spelt out in capital letters. He had loving parents, a warm family, and no need to worry about clothing and food. For Mo Hui the only difficult thing was trying to prove himself. The well-fed dont know how the starving suffered. Wei Xiao didnt even know what a family was. Mo Hui was immersed in his own pain and felt that he would have to leave the professional arena if he lost this game. But what Wei Xiao could see were expectations. CCThe expectations that Mo Huis parents had of him. Whether he was serious or not was something that the people who knew him best understood the most. Mo Hui wasnt trying his best, so his parents felt that hed played enough and that it was time to go home. If Mo Hui could let them see him struggling and doing his best, then his parents wouldnt force him to go back. Wei Xiao was really envious of such a family. The game dragged on for 31 minutes, and the audience in the live broadcast room had already started chanting, RRs done for. As expected, as long as they target Moonlit, this team isnt even as good as a fart. Money, quickly go and retire. If they changed to a different jungler, then RR wouldve risen up a long time ago. Shut up! How would there be todays RR without Captain Mo! Haha, money is the master. If he has the ability, then spend money to buy a global championship! Mo Huis personal strength is very good, okay? Wheres his strength? Hes already been nicknamed Mo Useless this season, okay? Mo Useless was really useless. RRs second towers had all fallen, and their farm was now 6000 behind TPT. When faced with TPT crazily forcing team fights in the mid-lane, it was unknown what had happened in RRs team chat, but the five people who shouldve retreated back to their base to protect their homes all rushed out! The death knight took the lead on his horse, attacking with his heavy form and accurately sending the storm hunter flying. Eurostar was shocked and quickly started stepping on raindrops to avoid the death knights punishment. However, Mo Hui didnt slow down at all. After switching to his light form, his three dogs jumped up and rushed at Eurostar while he was in mid-air. He stabbed again twice, and all of his damage landed on Eurostar. System AnnouncementCC RR.Money killed TPT.Star! At this moment, the entire arena was boiling with excitement. Mo Hui killed Eurostar, and RR managed to turn back the tables from the edge of death! TPT tried to retreat after losing Eurostars major DPS. Unfortunately, RRs giant shaman used flash to rush up, and Moonlit danced out a full wave of butterflies, dealing explosive damage. A wave of sudden death. RR won the third match! The camera focused on Mo Hui, who was the main reason for the win. The death knight had fallen to the ground, but the word Victory on the screen entered the youths eyes. At this moment, there was no longer the rich second generation whod come here just to have fun. There was only RRs captainCCMo Hui. Chapter 203.1: Lets bet. Laozi bets three million betting coins that RR will win!” That final reversal even stunned Wei Xiao. Beautiful! He praised Money unceremoniously, Captain Mo grasped the timing of that attack too well. He locked in completely on Eurostars position. The thing that makes this wave so amazing is that Eurostar didnt make any mistakes in positioning, and TPTs support and top-lane had both been standing in dead corners. Captain Mo still managed to find the opportunity to cut him down, and his release and prejudgment of his skills were both extremely accurate. That was the only way he was able to take down Eurostar! And Eurostars fall had been the start of TPTs collapse. Their big c-position had been killed, making it difficult for them to gain any benefits against RRs five, who were sweeping forward with great momentum despite the gap in farm. This defeat had been like a landslide. No matter how much of an advantage TPT had had before, this sudden death wave in the late stage was a collapse that shattered the heavens and split the earth. This was also where the charm of the competition lay; there were unexpected events that went beyond strategy. Wei Xiao praised this wave vigorously, managing not to repeat himself, all the way until he saw one line in the scrolling commentsCC Q Cub, look at your captain. Wei Xiao: ! If you keep praising, your captains going to die of jealousy! Wei Xiao quickly turned his head. With one look if they werent live broadcasting, then he wouldve leaned over to kiss him. The scrolling comments were joking, but Wei Xiao could see it clearly: Lu Feng had really gotten jealous and was eating the kind of vinegar that meant that he might be sent back to sleep in the master bedroom at any time! Wei Xiao didnt have any more attention to spare for some Mo Hui, Mo White, or Mo Red, and quickly went to coax him, Cough, if my captain was the one playing this death knight, then Eurostar wouldve died thousands of times already. Lu Feng stuffed a piece of watermelon at him. Wei Xiaos cheeks puffed out as he worked hard to eat it. The scrolling comments laughed so hard they were unable to catch their breath and joked, If I didnt know Little Lunatic Weis character, then I really would think that the two of you were having an affair! These words were mixed in with a pile of scrolling comments exclaiming about how sweet they were, but Wei Xiao noticed it, and his heart inexplicably tensed up slightly. There were others who were trying to make trouble, latching on to Wei Xiaos earlier words. So, based on this, is God Q more afraid of TPT? Wei Xiaos joy had overflowed in his words when RR won. From another perspective, it was as if he hadnt wanted TPT to win. Why didnt he want them to win? Wasnt it because he was afraid to meet them in the finals? This logic The haters were working hard! Wei Xiao smiled broadly and retorted, Who am I afraid of? Ill only be afraid of my captain in this lifetime. Scrolling comments: . Wei Xiao followed up and asked, Which player in TPT is more powerful than my captain? The haters: Sorry, please excuse us! The fans started getting excited again. They all expressed that ever since they started being Quiet fans, they didnt know what it meant to eat a loss! COOL, written in capital letters. Oh and it was sweet too. This fake sugar was so sweet that Sealing you as king became the number one term for Glory! Ever since Wei Xiaos real name had been exposed, the fans had given them countless CP names, which didnt need to be mentioned here. After chatting for a while, both sides finished resting and started on the fourth match. This was RRs match point. If they won this game, the national finals held on June 2 would be against FTW and RR. As for TPT, if another situation like the one from the previous match appeared, then their season would come to an end here. The camera displayed each teams players one by one. There were a total of ten people from both sides, and none of them had relaxed expressions on their faces. Eurostar, who always grinned and showed his teeth when he saw the camera, looked at the screen without blinking. He only nodded slightly, as though listening to his captain through the headset. RRs Mo Hui was very serious, too. Hed put away his usual casual attitude and was sitting up straight, looking more serious than ever. The fourth game Theyd warmed up, their blood was heated, and winning or losing would be determined with this fight! The BP ended, and the match began. It could be seen that the reversal from the last game had given RR a lot of encouragement. Regardless of whether it was Mo Hui or Moonlit, their top-laner or their support or their marksman, the whole teams momentum was soaring upwards. RR was known for its mid-jungler linkage, and Mo Hui performed very well, cooperating with Moonlit perfectly. At the start, Wei Xiao was still providing commentary for the game. Later on, he was focused on watching. There was something to learn here, and he could put it into use. Seeing that hed fallen silent, Lu Feng casually spoke a few sentences. The audience in the scrolling comments felt both love and hate towards him: They loved the sound of his voice, which made their ears tingle, but they hated his spoilers. Battles that couldve been very exciting were ruined because one of his sentences meant that they learned the results in advance There were also some members of the audience who questioned how the great demon king could be so powerful with his predictions and game awareness! In fact, it wasnt that exaggerated. Senior commentators could also do this, but they didnt do it. Commentators had to be professional, and they were facing a national audience. What was more important was to provide commentary on the game, describing what had happened to the audience and enhancing the viewing effect. It wasnt that they couldnt see through what would happen, but that they couldnt say it out loud for the audience to hear. As for Lu Fengs godly foresight, it was also conditional. He was observing the game from gods perspective, which was quite different from what he could see in the game. This mode allowed him to see the trends from both sides, and it wasnt difficult for Lu Feng, as a player with this type of game awareness, to predict what would happen next. RRs offense slowed down in the last 30 minutes. TPT fans were so nervous that they were almost hugging their heads and crying. Wei Xiao got to the point with one remark, There isnt much of a difference in farm. Dont judge based on RRs strong momentum and their lead with the kill count; Mo Huis ganking had been very effective, but the difference in farm between the two teams wasnt very significant. Often, MOBA games were played out based on a difference in farm. If your farm was high, and the opponents farm was low, they wouldnt be able to buy full sets of gear and would be pressed into the ground no matter how well they played. This was also the reason why FTW couldnt perform well in the team competitions despite how strong and amazing Close was. No matter how amazing his operations were or how he brushed out his nine light arcs, if his equipment was limited, all the DPS he dealt out would be nothing but a tickle. At first glance, it seemed as though RR had a big advantage, and it seemed that they would be able to end the game soon. But as long as they took a look at both sides farm, which only showed a 2000 gold gap, leaving the situation in a state of uncertainty. Especially when it came to RRs marksman and TPTs Eurostar. The difference in farm between the two of them was a full 1700 gold. It was Eurostar who had one more full piece of equipment compared with RRs ADC. This was a huge hidden danger! After another three to five minutes, RR started showing signs of weakness. The advantages to TPTs steady performance was fully evident at this moment. They had super strong operations and unhurried progress. When faced with RRs full momentum, they played like they were playing tai chi and easily dissolved their power. Wei Xiaos expression grew heavy. Lu Feng spoke in a low voice, Its hard for the wind thief to touch the gold hunter. Mo Hui, whod used the wind storm thief to build up an advantage in the early stage, was now helpless in the face of the gold hunter. The wind thief was different from the death knight. The death knight had high defense and a strong control skill. When all of the death knights skills landed on the squishy storm hunters body, it was fatal. The wind thief had high explosive damage, but it had very little health while the gold hunter had a slightly higher level of defense than the storm hunter. It wouldnt do to underestimate this slight difference because this factor was often the key to victory. When the last round of team fighting began, many people could already foresee the outcome. TPT wouldnt make the same mistake twice. Mo Hui was unable to find the right opportunity to attack Eurostar, so Mo Huis ranged damage skills were meaningless. When it came to a head on collision, the entire RR team was unable to hold up against the damage dealt by the gold hunters golden arrows. The director gave a close-up of Eurostar. The baby faced youth looked focused with a pair of dark eyes beneath his curved eyelashes. His little tiger teeth were covered up, and the corners of his mouth were tense. His expression was serious as he hit his keyboard and clicked his mouse. System AnnouncementCC TPT.Star killed RR.Money. TPT.Star killed RR.Kun. TPT.Star After seizing a triple kill, TPT was in a strong position and won the fourth match! 2:2! The score was even! The commentators spoke excitedly, This is the first game in the playoffs this year where a full five matches will be played! Thats right, it looks like well have a chance to enjoy a battle of freedom today. Moonlit can finally use the immortal warlock. Its said that his thousand layers of clouds has improved again recently. Dragging it to the fifth match is a bit of a loss for TPT. The battle of freedom was a special feature of the BO5. Up to five matches could be played in a BO5 game. The first four matches had a normal BP segment and were standard matches, which were played no differently from a BO3. Only the fifth match, which was called the battle of freedom, was played differently. There was no BP segment in the battle of freedom, and it was commonly known as blind selection. There were no banned talents and no prohibition against choosing the same talent. As long as they dared, both sides could use exactly the same talents. It was very exciting. Especially for the teams who were very good with specific talents, this was just like opening up a hack! Moonlits immortal warlock. Asleeps berserker thief. FTWs shadow thief These talents could all be let loose to show off in the game! The last match, the decisive match, was also the most unrestrained one. Regardless of how the players felt, the audiences mood was definitely mobilized to the peak. They all had high expectations towards this match! Wei Xiaos eyes were bright as well as he focused on watching. The scrolling comments finally woke up from the giddiness of shipping their CP and started paying close attention to the game. RR will definitely take the immortal warlock. As long as theyre able to obtain that line-up, their win will be guaranteed, 100%. The number of formal games was limited, and RR had only managed to use this line-up two or three times during the season after factoring in the BP segment, so this win probability wasnt as exaggerated as it sounded. TPTs situation is a bit dangerous. Why did they have to drag the game to the battle of freedom? Wouldnt it have been good to win the game with a 3:1 score? Haha, they have to have that level of ability. Lets bet. Laozi bets three million betting coins that RR will win! Ill go with that. I feel that RRs win is secure. Chapter 203.2: The team list for the finals was now fresh out of the oven! Amidst a wave of people bad-mouthing TPT, Wei Xiao and Lu Feng actually held different views. This was TPT, and there was also Fu Li. A man who could use traps like air and fill up the whole arena with them. Would he be unprepared for the battle of freedom? Would he really have made no plans for Moonlits immortal warlock? Impossible. Wei Xiao was actually looking forward to seeing what Fu Li had planned. There was no BP for the battle of freedom, so both sides entered the game after submitting their respective line-ups. There was no need to wonder; RR had taken an immortal warlock line-up, while TPT had taken a rarely seen mage talentCCthe undead mage. The commentator had already started analyzing their line-ups, while the audience grew even more nervous. RR fans were worried about Moonlits immortal warlock messing up. TPT fans worried that Fu Lis routines might not work. This was the final match, and the global finals were right in front of their eyes! A players state would change when they took a hero they were famous for. Moonlit had always been a fierce assassin mage player. Now, his momentum grew even more ferocious, and his thousand layers of clouds could fly up everywhere as soon as he reached level six. TPT was worthy of being the master of tricks and routines, and everyone was looking forward to seeing how the undead mage would be played. The undead mage wasnt a popular talent, but it would still be seen in the arena. Mostly, it was used to fit with a certain type of line-up. The undead mage was a summoner talent, a bit like the druid. His main method of attack was to summon undead things like skeletons and ghosts. Ordinary players didnt really like to play this talent. It wasnt that it was difficult to operate, but it was uncontrollable. When they wanted their summons to go attack Party A, they would instead go and bite Party B. When they wanted their summons to attack the towers, they would go and fight to the death with the lane soldiers and even get caught up with the jungle creeps. It was enough to anger the players to death. Fu Li had taken the undead mage in this match, and it was clear that he wanted to use it to deal with Moonlit. As for how exactly he would target him They hadnt yet figured that out. Mo Hui took the death knight that he was good at, and Eurostar took the sniper engineer. Both of them were relatively more powerful heroes. In the early stage of the game as they faced each other over the mid-lane, Moonlit very unceremoniously suppressed the undead mage, and almost killed Fu Li once his thousand layers of clouds was brushed out. Fu Li sacrificed his summons and escaped with only a sliver of health left. After analyzing both sides line-ups, the commentator had started to really look forward to seeing what kind of effect TPTs line-up could achieve. However, the undead mage still hadnt made any sort of brilliant plays even as they progressed towards the middle stage of the game. Could it be that Was TPT going to come to a stop here? In the live stream room, Wei Xiao and Lu Feng had both started talking less. Wei Xiao was absorbed in watching the game, and Lu Feng also had his gaze lowered as he watched. Although the two of them didnt speak, theyd constantly been switching perspectives to watch the game. They looked at the entire situation from different angles, across different terrain, and different fields of vision. The game progressed to the 25th minute. TPT, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly burst out! Eurostar broke down the first tower of the bottom lane and started TPTs wandering marksman mode. The sniper engineer was an ADC talent with a very long range. The damage from his general attack was very standard, but the damage he could deal with his skills went against the heavens. Especially when it came to his sniper skill; as long as hed set up his fortress well, his range could span nearly half the map. Of course, such a broad range also required precise aiming. If he hit, then half of his opponents health would be gone, but if he missed, then it would deal no damage at all. The operation costs for this hero were very high. When Eurostar came to the mid-lane, he lurked in the dragon pit and set up his gun, managing to accurately hit the immortal warlock from 6000 yards away! Amazing. Wei Xiao raised his eyebrows. The commentators had started with a round of praise, and the audience was also cheering. Scrolling comments swept by one after another. What made people even more dumbfounded was that he fired another shot, still at the limit of his range. His sniper shot arrived, and Moonlit, who was standing under his tower, actually ended up seriously injured! At the same time, a series of summons rushed over to tank the damage from the defense tower and attack the immortal warlock. The summons were all very fragile, and the defense tower could kill them with one hit, but it was unable to block a whole group of them. The towers attack speed was very slow, and it could only kill off one at a time. The summons seemed to be rushing to sacrifice themselves, rushing up over the corpses of their partners While it might take a long time to describe these events, in reality, everything happened in the blink of an eye. Moreover, Fu Li had released his summons before Eurostars second shot, so there was no way for Moonlit to avoid the attack. Hed taken two shots to the head, and as long as even one skeleton summon scratched him The undead mage killed the immortal warlock! This cooperation was really amazing. By this time, everyone finally became aware of the undead mages true purpose. It was difficult for him to restrain the immortal warlock on the surface, and hed even been beaten over the head by the immortal warlock in the early stages. But the undead mage was too good of a match with the sniper engineer! Once Eurostar built up three pieces of finished equipment, once he was released from the bottom lane and allowed to wander, the undead mages summons would become his eyes. The summons would send themselves up to die, but they would provide vision for that one short second. It was just one second, but it was enough time for Eurostar to aim and shoot. Super long range, super high damage. It only took two shots to kill someone! The immortal warlock had no chance to brush up his thousand layers of clouds! Everyone had long figured out that TPT must have made preparations against RR, but they hadnt expected that it would be like this. They didnt play out any control skills and didnt try to deal explosive damage. From the beginning to the end, TPTs goal against RR was not to fight against them directly. Theyd play tai chi, then snipe from a super long range It was so frustrating it could make peoples minds suffer a bloody collapse! After the immortal warlock was shot to death twice in a row, RR began to make their move. Mo Hui: Im going to go look for Eurostar. As long as they could determine Eurostars location, they could interfere with his shots or kill him and therefore protect Moonlit. However The undead mages usefulness was put on display once again. The summons could be used to determine the immortal warlocks position, and it could also be used to scope out sneak attacks. As a cowardly baby, Eurostars nerves were extremely sharp. He had the summons providing him with vision, but even without them, his senses were so sharp that he could detect danger on his own. Hed already slipped away by the time Mo Hui was about to reach him. Of course, this also gave Moonlit a small opportunity, allowing him to temporarily be relieved of the crisis of being locked on by the undead mages summons. Fu Li had made arrangements for this kind of situation a long time ago. Once Eurostar encountered danger, the whole TPT team would shrink back. Fight? No, no, no. Theyd wait. A thorn against cotton. The audiences mentalities were about to explode just from watching! 35 minutes into the game. Eurostar once again found an opportunity. Two sniper shots from a hero with full equipment hit accurately and sent Moonlit home. At the same time, TPTs support gave their team a speed buff, sweeping up the whole team in a whirlwind. The five people from TPT surrounded RRs four remaining players. Mo Huis death knight was really talented. He took down two of TPTs people with him Unfortunately, as long as they didnt kill Eurostar, who was sniping from the distance, RR would have no way to turn the tables. Victory! TPT won the battle of freedom! The team list for the China competition zones 13th season finals, the fight to enter the globals, was now fresh out of the oven. It was FTW against TPT! Shocking waves of applause broke out at the venue, and the camera was directed at TPTs fans. Their faces were red with excitement as they held up their colorful light signs, screaming themselves hoarse with words that conveyed their expectations and blessings. The RR side. At the end of the game, Mo Hui took off his headset woodenly and stared at the word Defeat on his screen. Moonlit turned his head to look at him. Captain. Mo Hui didnt move. Moonlits expression was as cold as ever. What are you crying for, theres still the next season. Mo Hui: Moonlit got up. He spoke as he headed towards the stage, Are you going to stop playing competitively if you cant receive your familys pocket money? Mo Hui froze. Moonlit strode forward. Theyd clearly lost, but he acted more like a winning rooster. Of course, we cant keep you if you insist on going back to inherit your family business. It wasnt a very nice sentence, but the words were like bursts of heat that filled Mo Huis chest. His eyes suddenly brightened and grew cheerful with this steaming heatCChed clearly lost this last chance, but it was like a door had opened up to a whole new world. Mo Huis tears hadnt yet dried, but a smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth: In that case, Ill really be No Money in the future. Moonlit didnt even blink. You were always No Money. At this time, the host was reading out the names from the list of fans on the support list. When she came to RRs fan list, she was stunned for a moment. One fan contributed 10 million support points to RR. One yuan was equivalent to ten support points, so 10 million support points was 1 million RMB! The audience collectively sucked in a breath. That was a real filthy rich! At this time, the fans ID was announced on the big screenCMo Huis Sister. The audience broke out into laughter, expressing that this fan was really bratty. They didnt know that there actually was a big sister involved. A real one. The game was over, and the live broadcast also ended. Wei Xiao was still in a trance as he closed down the live broadcast studio. Lu Feng asked him, Thinking about the last game? Wei Xiaos pale fingers tapped against the table gently. TPT is very difficult to deal with. Eurostar was a little cowardly baby, but the sniper engineer hed trained up was really crafty. Wei Xiao thought about it from another angle. If he was Moonlit or if he was using the shadow thief, he might also have been sniped down by this cold sniping. What should he do? The China competition zone semi-finals were over. As the host for the globals, their game schedule had been arranged later than the rest. The China competition zone had only just confirmed their team list for their national finals, while other competition zones had already finished playing all their games. North America was the most efficient competition zone. Yuan Ze, whod won their division championship without any suspense, gave Lu Feng a phone call. Yuan Ze: Lend us a place to live? xiin: shameless Old Dog Yuan~ Chapter 204.1: Would Little Lunatic Wei really be so kind? If it was half a year ago, Yuan Ze would never even have dreamed that he would send such a shameless message to Lu Feng. Lend us a place to live? How would a traitor like him have the face to ask such a thing. Now Yuan Ze continued to send over messages. I heard that the new FTW base is five or six floors high and there are many empty rooms. We dont have that many people with us, theres only XX people, so four or five rooms would be enough. Now, hed simply tossed things like keeping face out the window! It just so happened that Wei Xiao also received a message. Old G: Im come-ing**! Gary, whod won the North American competition zone championship, was still this silly and still just as proficient with his Martian text. Wei Xiao didnt know that Yuan Ze and the captain were in contact and only bowed his head to reply to Gary, Congratulations on winning the championship. Old G: There wuz no suspense֡ Wei Xiaos eyes were burned by this Martian text, and he cursed Yuan Ze for not acting like a human being. Yuan Ze was the one to install this character input method for him, not only harming this big fool, but setting him up to harm others. Speak in English. Old G: Nuu! My Chines is soo gud! To some extent, his Chinese really was quite good. Even Chinese people werent able to type out such words! Wei Xiao was too lazy to explain and directly replied to him in English instead. At the end of the day, that was still Garys mother tongue, and he started speaking normally again. Old G naturally hadnt contacted Wei Xiao in order to show off his championship title, but to discuss another important matter, My captain said that well be borrowing a place to live from FTW. Wei Xiao was stunned. What? Old G: When the time comes, Ill have to trouble you to take me to the FTW castle! Hed heard from a long time ago that FTWs new base was shockingly big. Calling it a villa was understating it, so it must be like a manor or a castle. Wei Xiao blinked, then turned to look at Lu Feng. Captain Lu Feng: What? Wei Xiao held up his cell phone and asked, Old G said that theyre coming to live here? How come he didnt know about this! Of course, it was okay for him not to know about it. After all, everything was possible as long as the captain nodded. Lu Feng glanced at the cell phone screen and uttered a few light words, Hes dreaming. Wei Xiao: Eh? Lu Feng showed him his own cell phone screen. Wei Xiao leaned over to see the chat between Yuan Ze and Lu Feng. Old Bandit Yuans words could be skimmed over, and Lu Fengs reply was concise and short, No space, not possible. Wei Xiao burst out laughing. When it came to acting cool, the great demon king was still the best at it. Who cared if the one on the other side was a human or a dog? Wei Xiao was so amused that his eyes curved. You really wont lend them a place? Lu Feng: You want to let them live here? Wei Xiao chuckled. How about we He leaned in against Lu Fengs ears and said a whole bunch of things. Lu Fengs thin lips curved up slightly as he listened. Naughty. Wei Xiao: Were the type to mean what we say. Lu Feng looked at him. Wei Xiao kissed him. Isnt it good? Taking down more than one bird with one stone. Since theyve already made their way to us and are asking us for help, itll be difficult to explain if we dont help them out. Lu Fengs heart itched from looking at his cunning appearance, but they were still in the training room where someone could come in at any time, so he didnt do anything to him. Wei Xiao shook his cell phone in front of him. If you agree, then just hand this matter over to me. Lu Feng: Go, then. Wei Xiao: Kay! He first used his own cell phone to reply to Old G, Did you get it wrong? My captain didnt agree to lend you guys a place. Gary sent over a series of question marks. How could that be! My captains patted his chest to guarantee it, saying that hed already gotten it done. Wei Xiao: Maybe you should go ask him again? Old G might be silly, but he wasnt completely stupid. He asked carefully, Is Close so ruthless? Wei Xiao: This has nothing to do with ruthlessness; theres still the globals coming up. If we live under the same roof now, how are we going to play in the competition? Gary: Well just play like that. Wei Xiao was too lazy to explain things to this big fool and said directly, Do you really want to come and live at FTWs base? Gary: Of course, those in a favorable position gain special advantages; if we live in FTW, Ill be able to find Close to solo at any time! Wei Xiao said in his heart: Dream on, you! But what his mouth said was, I can help you persuade my captain. Old G could sense that there was a trap in front of him. Are you really so kind? Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. Of course, there are some conditions. Gary: Like? Wei Xiao: As long as we want to arrange a training match, you guys will be on call. This includes, but isnt limited to 5v5 games. Old G didnt even think about it before sealing the deal. Okay! Wei Xiao: Dont you have to go and ask your captain? Gary was already asking. He shouted his question out in their training room directly. Yuan Ze: He had a suspicious expression on his face as he came over, looking through their chat history. Old G was asking for praise. Captain, I did well, right. This public relations move of his was perfect. They now had somewhere to stay, and they could also have training matches with FTW at any time. There were many advantages for them. Yuan Ze looked at it carefully, and a trace of confusion showed in his peach blossom eyes. Would Little Lunatic Wei really be so kind? He kept feeling as though there was some trick up ahead. Gary went on in the background, Theres no problem here! Quiets a good person. He might be bratty, but hes also very kind. Yuan Ze thought it over silently for a while. Old G: Ill reply to him. He replied to Wei Xiao as he spoke, Its done! Wei Xiao: Dont go back on your word. Gary: Dont worry, as long as were living in FTW, you can make an appointment for training matches at any time, and well play however you want to play. Wei Xiao: Youll try your best? Gary: Of course! Wei Xiao: I took a screenshot. Old G didnt care. As you like. The matter was settled just like that. From the surface, it looked like it had been resolved happily. However, Yuan Ze kept feeling as though there were drums playing in his heart. He asked Lu Feng to check, You agreed? Lu Feng: Mm. Yuan Ze: Is Little Lunatic Wei now in charge of the family and making decisions? Lu Feng: Is there a problem? Yuan Ze: My mouth got away from me, and I asked too much. On the other side, Wei Xiao blinked at Lu Feng. Its done. Lu Feng poked the tip of his nose. Wei Xiao: I didnt lie to them. Lu Feng laughed briefly, then called Xiang Liu and made arrangements. Brother Liu was confused. This Lu Feng: Go and arrange it. Xiang Liu: Okay! The finals were only six days away. Those whod gone through it before all knew that these six days were filled with real suffering. In some moments, they would feel that time was passing very slowly, each second dragging on like years, and these six days were like several lifetimes. At other times, they would wonder why time was passing by so quickly, one day gone in the blink of an eye. How come time couldnt go backwards? Why were the finals looming right in front of their eyes? For these few days, their counselor stayed at FTW with them, and they had a 20 minute chat with them every day to ensure that their psychological states were alright, helping them relieve their tension and keep their spirits at the healthiest levels. Mo Hui called Wei Xiao the second day after the semi-finals. Money: Do you have time at noon? Wei Xiao: ? Mo Hui: Treat you guys for a meal outside. Wei Xiao noticed his relaxed tone and joked, Its not a retirement banquet, is it. Mo Hui laughed and cursed, Get the hell away, Laozis not retiring! Wei Xiao: Oh, so is it a celebration dinner prepared for us in advance? Mo Hui: Can we be a bit less shameless, little brat! Mo Hui invited everyone from FTW, including Brother Liu, to come out and eat together. Once Brother Cai heard that it was Money treating, he was dressed up and ready to attend. Wei Xiao: The outfit on your body is at least worth six figures, right. Bai Caicai smiled slightly. Its still incomparable to one of the captains watches. Wei Xiao felt that it would be awkward to say it out loud: Brother Cai was confirmed as Glorys young lady of note. Unfortunately, while Bai Cai had dressed himself up so well, the restaurant they went to eat at wasnt anything special. Even though it was still 400-500 yuan per person, to Money, this was just like going to a common civilian restaurant, okay! Bai Cai and Mo Hui had a good relationship, so he asked quite frankly, Why the cold treatment? When Captain Mo made a move, shouldnt it start from 2000-3000 per person? Mo Hui, on the other hand, answered happily. Ill only have my salary in the future. I cant spend extravagantly anymore. Bai Cais head was covered with question marks. He stopped just short of asking whether the Mo Family group had gone bankrupt? That wasnt right, wasnt their stock price soaring? Mo Hui: My parents said, I can chase my dreams, but I can forget about the pocket money. Brother Cai was surprised, his face filled with heartache. Captain Mo, youre Had he been expelled from his family? But he felt too embarrassed to ask it out loud. Mo Hui wasnt discouraged at all. Instead, his expression was happy. I thought about it. My achievements this year werent very good, and my performance can be linked back to how I spend so much money. When it comes to people, theres no gain without pain. My parents cutting off my economic support is them encouraging me to pursue my dreams in disguise! Everyone present: oh. All the poor commoners were left speechless. They didnt understand it. The thought process of you rich people are really strange. Only Lu Feng bumped his glass against his. Congratulations. Mo Hui laughed loudly. Thanks! If any outsiders saw these two teams, they might think that it was RR whod rushed into the national finals! They were so high despite losing the game; could you guys act a bit more normal?! Chapter 204.2: Sure enough, Little Lunatic Wei would never act like a person! FTWs side didnt drink alcohol, but RR, whod started their holidays early, didnt have the same taboos. Mo Hui had two drinks in his belly and spoke to Brother Cai, Old Bai, look at how Im poor now. Bai Cais expression was filled with youre poor now, you should be more self-aware and stay a bit further away from me. Mo Hui was teasing him on purpose, Your big brother was young then and didnt understand anything. Now that Ive suddenly woken up, I feel that that Porsche Bai Cai was startled. Holy shit, Money, be a bit less shameless. You cant actually want to take back the car you gave away! Mo Hui: You see, Im really No Money now, Brother Bai, can you Brother Cai hurriedly drew a line between them, and even urged Little Ning to change seats with him. Everyone was amused by their actions. Moneys alcohol tolerance was mediocre. He drank a bit, then unwittingly drank too much. Moonlit didnt drink, and the cold blades he shot out from his eyes stabbed into Money several times. But Mo Hui wasnt scared of anything today. He felt that the air was filled with freedom, and he was super high. Old Fu is really like a damned dog, hiding tricks left and right every day. He doesnt leak any tricks during training matches, yet he can pull his routines out directly in the competition and still play them out so effectively. He might feel free, but theyd really lost the game. Saying that he didnt feel bad about it would be a lie. Now that hed drunk too much, he was giving full vent to his emotions and cursing Fu Li like a bloody dog. Wei Xiao took this opportunity to ask them about many details. RR didnt mean to hide anything. Their season was over, and compared with their old time rivals TPT, theyd rather see FTW win the championship. Besides, who wasnt a Close fan? It hadnt been easy for him to have a chance to fight against the team of Gods. They were all happy to help him out. Mo Hui chattered on for a long time, and Moonlit said quite a lot, too. He had been the one who felt it the most deeply, since hed been the direct victim. Eurostars cold sniping in that last match had made his scalp go numb. Eurostar must have practiced with the sniper engineer. His accuracy is too exaggerated; basically, as long as he has vision, hell definitely hit. Yue Wenle had his ears pricked up as he listened from the side. Moonlit glanced at him. It wasnt trained up overnight. Its likely that Fu Li arranged a thorough training plan for him. There were quite a few professional players who could play the sniper engineer. Even without mentioning the globals, there was no lack of sharpshooters in the domestic competition. But this kind of thing really depended on feel. Even if theyd trained up a level of skill, it was easy to play badly if this feeling of familiarity wasnt maintained every day. Of course, credit also had to be attributed to Fu Lis cooperation. The two people had a deep understanding between them, which was something that not all mages and ADCs could have. For example, on the FTW side, there was no such tacit understanding between Little Ning and Old Yue. Wei Xiao nodded. That line-up is certainly very strong. The effort that Eurostar has put in in the background cant be underestimated. How could there be a victory that happened just from talking about it? There always had been sufficient homework done behind the scenes. Mo Hui leaned back in his chair and shook his wine glass. You guys, youre better off not taking the shadow thief in the finals. Wei Xiao and Lu Feng looked at him. Moonlits expression was still cold as he agreed, Indeed. They didnt say it explicitly, but the implication behind it was obvious. Dont judge at how RR was laughing and talking and drinking happily. Yesterdays battle of freedom had left a big impact on them. Especially on Moonlit. The immortal warlock was his signature talent. It was his confidence and his pride. But it had all become a mess. This failure was cruel. Not only had it attacked RRs routine, it had also attacked Moonlits self confidence. For a proud player like this to say all this, was enough to show big of a shock theyd received. The winner was king, and losers were always in the wrong. RR might scold Fu Li like a dog on the surface, but they didnt really resent him in their hearts. Their skills hadnt been good enough, and theyd lost the game, but theyd fight again next year. They didnt finish eating until after nine. Mo Hui had thoroughly gotten himself drunk and was pulling at Brother Cai to sing with him. Bai Cai was as grave as a judge. 500 per song. Mo Hui: Okay! Moonlit: Ha. Mo Hui immediately changed his words, Like hell! Brother Cai rolled his eyes and disdained him. Hurry up and go back to inherit your family business, why are you playing in some poor competition! Mo Hui disdained him back. What the hell do you know! Brother Cai turned around and acted inhuman, Get lost, you poor devil! They messed around until around 10PM, and then they each returned back to their respective bases. Just before they separated, Moonlit said to Ning Zhehan, Ill play with you tomorrow. Little Ning was flattered and surprised. ! Moonlit: Solo. Ning Zhehan: Okay! He stood up straight. Moonlit patted him on the shoulder, Kill Fu Li. Little Nings skin tensed up. Moonlits voice was low, If you cant kill him, Ill kill you. Ning Zhehan: QAQ. It was no wonder Moon God didnt drink. As a person who could act drunk even without drinking, he didnt need to drink! The next day, Yuan Ze landed at S Citys Airport Terminal 2 with L&Ps crowd of people. Dont look at how they were an American team. They were also popular in China because of Yuan Ze. Photos of them at the airport were instantly spread out through microblogs as fans ran over to comment. Scum Man Yuans aura hasnt diminished at all from back then! Even though Im a Yuan Hater, I must admit that his long legs can match up to the great demon kings. He really lives up to being a mixed blood. Hes tall and has a great figure. Do you see these earrings of mine? Theyre the same style! Like hell theyre the same, his ear stud is customized from his championship ring! Some newcomers only learned about this now, What, what? He changed his championship ring into an ear stud? Yeah, the championship ring from the Team of Gods that year. He changed it into an ear stud and wore it all the time? Yes, unique, limited edition Glory. Wuwuwu, worthy of being Scum Man Yuan, scummy with deep feelings. Yuan Zes scum man label was mainly because he looked like a playboy: peach blossom eyes, flirty attitude, and that signature bad boy smile which had cheated countless girls hearts. Of course, another reason was how easily hed walked away and hadnt come back once in three years. Hed clearly acted like a scum man towards FTW. But if that was it, it wouldnt have been enough to make the fans love and hate him like this. The most abusive thing hed done was to be the first to give up solo. He was clearly able to win the world solo championship and use this to establish a foothold in North America, but he voluntarily gave up on the singles. Fans asked him why. Yuan Zes reply to them had been the ear stud in his left ear. A unique ear stud that had been modified from the black and gold championship ring. At the time, the Team of Godss old fans had cried so much their tears turned into a river that could flow all the way from S City to North America, halfway around the world. Lu Feng arranged for the van to go and pick them up. Yuan Ze noticed Wei Xiao with a glance and waved in greeting. Wei Xiao greeted them, then said, My captain is busy, so I came to pick you up. Yuan Ze pushed up his sunglasses and looked him over, Youve grown taller. Wei Xiao smiled like a fox, It might be because you arent wearing padded shoes. Yuan Ze: This conversation couldnt continue. He shouldnt have f*cking tried to talk to this kid! Gary and the others all greeted Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao had grown familiar with them in the winter training camp and was happy to see them all again. They were all big boys and powerful players, they had many interests in common and it was easy to find topics to chat about. Yuan Ze sat next to Wei Xiao in the van. Wei Xiao was in the midst of sending Lu Feng a message. Yuan Ze asked him in a low voice, Is your captain so easy to talk to? Wei Xiao: When is my captain not easy to talk to? Yuan Ze: There was never a time when Close was easy to talk to! Yuan Ze still felt uneasy, Youre really letting us live at FTWs base? Wei Xiao: Of course. Yuan Ze: Not going to try and avoid suspicion? Wei Xiao: Even you guys dont care about that. We dont care, either. Yuan Ze tapped his index finger against the armrest. He kept having the feeling that there was a trap somewhere. But he couldnt figure out what it was. Wei Xiao bowed his head to send his messages to Lu Feng. Because he didnt try to avoid Yuan Zes gaze, Yuan Ze was able to see the contents very clearly with his dynamic vision. He gritted his teeth, Can the two of you stop acting so sticky. What the hell was this memeda! Wei Xiao: Is this called sticky? Yuan Ze: He felt like he shouldnt have said anything. Wei Xiao held up his cell phone and spoke directly into the microphone, Love you~ Yuan Ze: Wei Xiaos expression was full of, Get it?. Lu Feng replied to him, Good. Wei Xiao raised it up for Yuan Ze to see, Do you see that? This was what stickiness really was! Yuan Ze expressionlessly put his sunglasses back on, stopping just short of sticking an emoticon on his own faceCConce the sunglasses are on, no one loves me.jpg It wasnt a short trip from the airport to the base. L&Ps starters, whod been traveling for over ten hours, took a nap, and were still a bit out of it when they arrived. Yuan Ze rubbed his eyes, Are we there? Wei Xiao: Yea! Old G looked out the window and said, You guys really have a castle! FTWs new base could really be said to be a distinct front for Chinas e-sports. It was very grand. L&Ps people were just getting ready to get off the car when they discovered that the van wasnt stopping. Gary: ??? Wei Xiao: Were not there yet. Old G got it, Were not going through the main entrance? Wei Xiao didnt explain. Only Yuan Zes heart thudded briefly. About five or six minutes later, the van came to a stop as they arrived at their destination. Yuan Zes head started buzzing the moment they got off the van. Sure enough, it had been a trap! Sure enough, Little Lunatic Wei would never act like a person! Wei Xiao spoke in a friendly tone, Were here. The place was cleaned up the day after yesterday to ensure that you guys can settle in comfortably. At this time, Old G also sensed that something wasnt right, This place Wei Xiao introduced, This is FTWs old base. From three years ago. Yuan Ze: Dont ask, if you ask, then it was time to start burning paper. The author has something to say: Wei Xiao: Burning paper isnt environmentally friendly, you can use candles. God Yuan: . xiin: basically, i forgot monday existed, so you guys get monday + tuesdays updates together orz Chapter 205.1: Traces left from three years ago had been eroded away by the years... Although it was their base from three years ago, it had only been abandoned for less than a year. FTW had only gained complete freedom in terms of funding after winning the domestic championship last year; soaring platform signing fees and high endorsements, combined with the effective operations of the team and supporting policies allowed the present castle to come into being. The old base wasnt small. After all, it had once belonged to the Team of Gods, and three years hadnt changed the building much. As Wei Xiao had said, it had been cleaned up very thoroughly. Other than some places that were empty where there used to be ornaments or hanging items, all the remaining furniture was still available, and it wasnt obvious that it had been left empty for a long time. The entrance led straight to the trophy exhibition hall. All the trophies that the old FTW had won were still on display here, carefully protected with transparent glass covers. Domestic championships, invitational championships, singles championships, and finally, the weighty global championship. Yuan Zes left ear tingled slightly when he saw it. Three years ago, the craftsman had told him that the championship ring was very heavy and not suited for an ear stud. Wei Xiao enthusiastically took them to tour through the old base. Old G only realized this after the fact, Is this the former FTW base? Wei Xiao: Yes. Gary turned back in horror and looked at his captain. Yuan Zes expression was as heavy as water, scaring Big G until the back of his neck tensed up. There was intent to kill there!!! Having Yuan Ze live here was like asking him to die! Old G spoke quickly, We Yuan Ze interrupted him and asked Wei Xiao, Have the rooms upstairs been cleaned as well? Wei Xiao: Of course. There are enough rooms even if you all take one room each. Yuan Ze: Okay. After speaking, he went up the steps. He didnt need anyone to lead him; he was also qualified to lead others around to tour this place. Gary: ??? He looked back at VIVI, his confusion clear on his face. Were they really going to live here? VIVI followed Yuan Ze upstairs and picked a room. Yuan Zes mood actually calmed down after he went upstairs. It was a familiar base, but it also felt unfamiliar. Any traces left from three years ago had been eroded away by the years, leaving only the trophies on the first floor. The new FTW had lived here for over two years, and his room had long been assigned to other players. There were no similarities, and there wasnt anything to look back on. It was just that his mood kept fluctuating. After all, this base had held both the most dazzling and the most miserable moments of FTW. Now, FTW had managed to stride forward, going out to face the new world. What gave old people like him the right to act so picky? Wei Xiao might be bratty, and he really did want to get revenge on Old Bandit Yuan, but he knew his limits. It was already very exciting to bring people to this point, but hed long made preparations in case Yuan Ze flicked his hands and chose to leave instead. Unexpectedly, hed just gone upstairs when he heard Yuan Ze making a phone call. Yuan Zes Chinese was very standard, each word pronounced precisely, but his tone was a little evil, When are you and Old Li coming over? He could guess that this was a call to Kim Sung-hyun even without having heard his name mentioned. It was unknown what Kim Sung-hyun said in reply, but Yuan Zes thin lips curved and he clearly didnt have any good intentions. Do you have a place to live? Wei Xiao: He was just as stupid as that silly vegetable back home for being worried about this old bandit! Yuan Ze was really calling Kim Sung-hyun. The South Korean and North American finals had ended on the same day, but Pro had had a tougher time winning the championship than L&P had. Theyd had to fight all the way to the battle of freedom, and had relied on Kim Sung-hyuns gold hunter dominating the whole canyon in order to win. The new generation in South Korea had risen up rapidly, and several new dark horses had emerged during the winter training camp. If it hadnt been for the major changes in the global competition system this year, and seed teams had still been allowed to join in on the competition like before, it might have really become a bloody storm! Kim Sung-hyuns heart was really tired from fighting in the domestic competition, and he hadnt quite recovered. If you have something to say, then say it. Otherwise, if you dont have any farts to let out, then goodbye! Yuan Zes temper was really good. He spoke in a coaxing, warm tone, Big brothers just concerned about where youll be staying. Kim Sung-hyun was so disgusted by his tone that goosebumps broke out all over his body. You dont have to worry about that. Yuan Ze: I know I dont have to worry about it. Little Close has taken us in. Kim Sung-hyun was stunned for a moment when these words came out. Yuan Zes words made Wei Xiao, whod been forced to listen in, want to jump out and beat him up. I also had no choice. How could I refuse Closes invitation? So Kim Sung-hyun: So youre living at the FTW base? Old Bandit Yuan, can you be a little less shameless! Yuan Ze sighed emotionally. FTWs base is really big; its really like a castle. Compared with Pros base from a visual inspection, it looks at least five times bigger. Kim Sung-hyun: Yuan Ze: How about coming over to live here together? Ill let Close know for you. Kim Sung-hyun: Get lost! Yuan Ze: Come on, us brothers should have a proper reunion. Kim Sung-hyun: Not going. Yuan Ze: Alright then, Ill go and tell Close. Kim Sung-hyun felt awkward and angered at the same time. I already said Im not going! Yuan Ze: Yes, yes, Ill arrange it for you right away. There was a click as Kim Sung-hyun hung up the phone. Wei Xiao felt that he was still too easy going and soft-hearted. Compared with Old Dog Yuan, he was really too simple and green! Far away in South Korea, God Kim was still sour. Li Heran: Whats the matter? Kim Sung-hyuns tone wasnt anything good, Close actually likes that dog Yuan Ze more! Why did he invite Old Dog Yuan and not him. After Li Heran learned of the full situation: It was fortunate that there was nobody else in the training room, because otherwise God Kims persona would really have collapsed. Li Heran comforted him. Close should be returning a favor. Kim Sung-hyun thought about it. Thats right. Previously, hed gone to North America for treatment, and Yuan Ze had looked out for him a bit. It was likely that Close had just uttered a few polite sentences, but a certain shameless person had gone ahead and really moved in. When he thought about it that way, Kim Sung-hyun still felt dissatisfied and asked Li Heran, How about we also borrow a place to live at the FTW base? Li Heran didnt care. As you like. The more Kim Sung-hyun thought about it, the more reasonable he felt it was. As an elder brother, I should protect my younger brother from that doggy thing! Unfortunately, God Kim had forgotten that he was half a year younger than Old Dog Yuan. After listening in, even the little remnants of guilt that Wei Xiao had felt in his heart evaporated away like smoke. Sure enough, inhuman means should be used when facing people who acted inhuman. Just look at him. Hed fallen into a trap, then happily dragged someone else in with him. He was really good at playing around! When it came to arranging rooms, Old G wondered out loud, There are so many vacant rooms, so why do I have to squeeze in with VIVI? Yuan Ze smiled slightly. This isnt our base. We should be more circumspect. Gary thought about it and held back. Their captain was putting up with so much in order for them to be able to live in a place that upset him, so they should really be more understanding. What were they being so picky for? It was already pretty good for them to have a place to live! Wei Xiao, who knew the truth: Oh, he was freeing up rooms for Pro, right. Captain Yuan, youre really capable! Although they were now living at the old base instead of the new base, it was still necessary for them to host a welcome banquet. Lu Feng was also a bit surprised that Yuan Ze had been willing to stay and live at the base, but Wei Xiao then told him about the sequence of events. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao said indignantly, I underestimated him. Lu Feng smiled. Then well beat him up in the arena. Wei Xiao: Yeah! The thickness of Yuan Zes face was really enough to make city walls feel ashamed; he didnt even feel embarrassed complaining about it during the reception banquet. Its such a big base, but you dont have four or five rooms to spare? Do you really have to drive us out to the remote suburbs in the poor countryside? Lu Feng was silent. Yuan Ze continued, When you were in North America He hadnt finished his words when Wei Xiao sneered. My captain didnt stay at L&Ps base, did he! Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao continued, If you feel that its remote, why dont you move to the Peninsula Hotel to the west of the city? It was 4000-5000 per night, enough that one globals could bankrupt L&P. Yuan Ze shut up, and Lu Fengs mouth curved up briefly. This smile let Yuan Ze understandCCno wonder Close was so quiet, he was waiting to be defended! He didnt need to eat any Japanese food. Just eating dog food was enough! Since they were living at FTWs base, their previous agreement took effect. L&P had just gotten over their jet lag when their enslavement began. They had training matches from 1PM all the way to 12 midnight, and when it was over, Gary was still not done. Again! Yuan Ze yawned. Like hell! Being so excited about being enslaved C was he masochistic! They were only three days away from the national finals. FTW really benefited from these two days of training with L&P. At first, they would only win one game out of every five. Later, it was two out of every five, and then even later, the win rate was even. Of course, this was also because they were playing training matches. The more training matches they played together, the more the players attitudes would diverge. It wasnt that the players attitudes were incorrect, but that the mentality was different. The tension and stimulation of a real competition wasnt present during a training match, and when it came to the competition, the results often depended on the players states. Being in a good state or a bad state were all key factors in winning the game. Chapter 205.2: Antagonistic Lu came online. On May 30th, the European championships began. There was no doubting which teams were fighting for first placeCCY1 and EVE. Xiang Liu directly opened up a meeting room, and L&P and FTWs starters went to watch the game together after their training matches. It was a very lively scene. Yan Jiang and Xie He were old rivals, and these two teams had played against each other countless times. It wasnt obvious who had the upper hand, and it really depended on how they developed in the game. Fans in Europe were shouting excitedly, waves of sound rising and falling. The level of excitement they held for the game was akin to watching a football game. When Y1 appeared on the stage, the camera gave Yan Jiang a fixed shot. This unsmiling man didnt even look at the camera, walking on stage coldly, and sitting down coldly. It was as though he wasnt participating in the finals for their competition zone, but rather playing a game in the training room at their base. Yuan Ze: Theres really no one who can match God Yans mentality. There was more mockery in his tone than respect. He was once their captain, but was now addressed as God Yan. There were a whole lot of subtle emotions hidden in between the lines. The EVE Players came out after that. Europeans were generally tall. EVEs top-laner was 1.9 meters tall, and he looked like a gym coach in the team uniform with his burly figure. Their jungler, support, and marksmen were all over 1.85 meters tall, and their support was a two hundred pound fat brother who looked like a mountain standing beside Xie He. This sudden drop in height in their formation had initially led to laughter in the arena when they first appeared. Now The venue burst out into explosive cheers as soon as this 1.7 meter Xie He came up onto the stage. Did height matter? Their God Xies aura was 2.8 meters tall! Wei Xiao quite admired Xie He. It was really difficult for a Chinese player to gain such popularity in Europe. He wouldnt have been able to defeat that deadly prejudice without absolute strength that went against the heavens. Xie He had to put out far more effort than an ordinary player, using days and nights of hard work and effort in order to garner such amazing cheers. The BP segment went by quickly, with both coaches standing behind their respective star players. Yan Jiang and Xie He remained silent the whole time, saying nothing and making people wonder about how they communicated with their team. Actually, those who were familiar with them already knew that there wasnt any need for them to say anything. One of them was a support king, and the other was a mage king, and their line-ups were completely dependent on their teammates and their enemies. They were able to play out explosive results no matter what the coaches gave them; this was the strength that belonged to the Team of Gods. They werent all-rounder kings who could play all professions, but they were all-rounder kings within their own positions. Rather than having broad but unrefined ability, it was better to strive for excellence! Xie He displayed the strength of a real mage king in the first match, performing so well that he made Ning Zhehan and VIVI fall into a daze. Every position in Glory was important. As long as they wanted to perform, as long as they had the strength, it was possible to fly up. Xie Hes linkage across the whole map made peoples blood boil from watching it. After clearing out a wave of lane soldiers, he went to the top lane to provide support, forcing Y1s top-laner to be seriously injured even if he didnt die. He launched another assault when he returned to the mid-laner, forcing Y1s mid-laner to retreat. When he sensed that there was movement in the jungle zone, he calculated their vision accurately and slipped away, long gone even before Y1 had made their move. However, the bottom lane he didnt go there because Yan Jiang was there. Reasonably speaking, they should gank the marksman until they had no way to develop in the early stages, but Xie He understood Yan Jiang too well. Hed remained in the bottom lane just to lure him over. As soon as EVEs focus shifted there, the group fighting machine Yan Jiang would be able to beat them back into seclusion. This confrontation between old opponents was really brilliant. The laymen were just watching the excitement, but those who were insiders really saw much more. FTWs large conference room was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping would be able to be heard. No one spoke, and they wished they didnt even have to blink, afraid to miss out on a single glorious moment. EVE won the first game thanks to Xie Hes multi-directional assault. Dont judge based on how Y1 had lost; everyone understood in their hearts that Yan Jiang warmed up slowly. Or, it could be said that the whole of Y1 was slow to warm up. They didnt have a high impact player like Xie He on their team, and it took time for them to get into the right state. When they encountered weak teams, they would basically be ready halfway through the first match. But when they were up against their old counterpart EVE, Xie He, who deeply understood their situation, would never give them the time they needed to wake up. Winning one match was better than nothing. Whoever took that lightly would be stupid. The atmosphere in the entire canyon was different for the second match. Xie He was still attacking everywhere, but his success rate had already dropped sharply. The state of the four people in Y1 had already been mobilized. During the middle and later period, as Yan Jiang teamed up with any of the players in any position, EVE began to find themselves in a tight spot. Wei Xiao whispered to Brother Cai, Do you see that? Brother Cai was seeing too much, and his vision was dazzled! Wei Xiao reminded him, Vision! Bai Cai nodded. Its very tricky. Wei Xiao: Theres a lot to learn from. Well go over the replay later. Bai Cai said seriously, Yes! Regardless of whether it was Eve or Y1. Although they each had their own pillars, the other four players from each team were also strong players in their own right. Ordinary players might not even be able to keep up with Xie Hes support. Let alone achieving a good effect, accidentally sending Xie He off to his death would be a standard occurrence. The vision Yan Jiang provided was tricky and precise, but if Y1s four people didnt have enough game awareness, they may not notice it at all and miss out on those fleeting opportunities. There was no doubt that both teams were teams that had already trained up to a certain extent and had a lot of experience under their belts. Yan Jiang and Xie Hes so-called exceptional playing was labelled as such because they drove their teams rhythm, like a strong stabilizing force or a wind vane that could provide enough information to help their teammates. Y1 won the second match. The third match was more frenetic. The ten players whod now fully warmed up performed well across the whole game, giving the fans the ultimate viewing experience. Their hearts trembled from the players operations, and there was endless shouting echoing in their ears. Y1 was at full power. Their top-laner, mid-laner, jungler, and marksman all showed wonderful operations, the type that could be cut out and put in the yearly collection of top plays. Yuan Ze tsked. Lu Feng watched quietly. Although neither of them said anything, varying degrees of heat could be seen in their eyes. Wei Xiao and Yan Jiang had teamed up together briefly, and he could vaguely sense a bit of it. As teammates, God Yan was really a rare existence who could provide support with no sense of dissonance. He could predict his enemies as well as his teammates, and there was no need to say too much. He made things happen smoothly and was really worthy of being a treasure in the Glory circle. But saying such a thing didnt belittle the level of Y1s players. Instead, it added another degree of recognition. Those who were worthy of God Yan were doomed to never be crappy or inexperienced. Y1 won the third match. Yan Jiang and Xie He didnt appear for the trash talk segment that took place during the half-time break. Y1s mid-laner came out to say his piece, and EVEs jungler came up to antagonize him back. The subtitle translations were very matter-of-fact which made them inexplicably funny. In the fourth match, EVE started playing an even more extreme play style. EVE had always been an absolute mid-laner core team, but that intensified even further now. All of their farm piled up on Xie He, and Xie He moved around with four players supporting him everywhere. They would either avoid fighting, or stir things up in a big way. This game took a full 40 minutes, and the last group fight was won after Xie Hes six beams of magic stabbed Y1s marksman to death from the furthest possible distance! 2:2, an even score! They finally reached the battle of freedom. Everyone whod come to the scene felt that theyd really gotten their moneys worth with the ticket price. The fans stood up excitedly, looking forward to seeing todays winner. Y1 had been the champion for last years global finals, but EVE had been the European champion. This year, would it be EVE successfully defending their title, or would Y1 win the crown? It would all depend on this last battle. Wei Xiao spoke up suddenly, How about making a bet on it. Yuan Ze was always up for it. Whats the bet. Wei Xiao: Lets first talk about our thoughts first. What kind of bet can we make if we think the same way? Yuan Ze: You speak first. Im sure my thoughts will be different from yours. Wei Xiao: Then arent you definitely going to lose? Yuan Ze: If I lose to you, Im Willing. Lu Feng: Y1. He directly interrupted Scum Man Yuans coquettish words. Wei Xiao immediately looked at Lu Feng and smiled sweetly. The captain and I have a heart to heart connection! Yuan Ze: He suddenly didnt want to bet anymore! Wei Xiao looked at him again. How about it? Are you rooting for EVE? Yuan Ze: Lu Fengs eyelids lifted up slightly. Dont talk big if you cant afford to lose. This smell of vinegar was strong enough to reach the skies! Yuan Zes tone was grumpy, EVE! Even if he felt that Old Xies win wasnt very certain for this round. Wei Xiao confirmed it. Were betting on Y1, and Captain Yuan is betting on EVE. Everyone can stand witness. Gary wanted to speak but hesitated. Yuan Ze stared at him, and Silly Big G shut up. Yuan Ze: Whats the bet? Wei Xiao naturally had something planned. How about Captain Yuan making an appointment for a training match with TPT for us if we win? Yuan Ze: Stinky brat, you really make the best use of everything! To some extent, L&P was very similar to FTW. They both had big daddies in their top lane, were both jungler cores, and even VIVI was similar to Little Ning. It wasnt convenient for FTW to go and ask TPT, but L&P could, and TPT wouldnt refuse them. Yuan Ze agreed. Wei Xiao: Alright, lets watch the game! Yuan Zes head was covered with question marks. Youre not going to ask me? Antagonistic Lu came online, No need, youll definitely lose. Yuan Ze: These stinky brats, theyve really grown hard wings! The author has something to say: Vinegar Lulu, online antagonizing people. The captain looks on with a dangerous gaze. Chapter 206.1: The mantis catches the cicada, but the yellow sparrow lurks behind! Their captain had been bullied, so everyone in L&P had to happily watch the excitement! VIVI and the other three all acted like they didnt understand Chinese, and didnt show the slightest inclination of helping their captain find a way out of his predicament. Old G was still kind-hearted at the end and showed some respect to Yuan Ze. Captain, whats your bet? Yuan Ze: He was too lazy to bring it up now. Gary was still holding onto his fantasy. What if EVE suddenly bursts out and turns the tables on Y1? Yuan Ze: Heh. Old G said sincerely, Dont you always say, youre not afraid of a bowl, but youre afraid of things? This Chinese was so strange that even the Chinese people present couldnt understand what he was saying. Yuan Ze corrected him, The phrase is not being afraid of ten thousand things, but being afraid of the unexpected. Gary: Yes yes yes! The truth proved that Old G really loved his captain. As for his captainCC What kind of love could a scum man whod taught him Martian language instead of Chinese understand? Yuan Ze finally spoke out his side of the bet, If EVE wins, then Quiet and Gary will switch teams when FTW and L&P play training matches. The two jungler kings: ??? Wei Xiao looked sympathetically at Old G. He didnt have to say much, as his eyes said it all: Wake up, youve been treated like scum! Old G felt aggrieved to death. If Id known, I wouldnt have shown you any respect! Yuan Ze: Sure enough, he shouldnt have come back to FTW. This place didnt agree with him! As they chatted, the two teams in the live broadcast had already selected their respective line-ups. In the battle of freedom, most teams would have their own routine line-ups. Surprisingly, Xie He hadnt taken the immortal warlock. There was a saying that had been circulating in the Glory circle for a long time: There were two types of immortal warlocks. One was Xie Hes immortal warlock, and the other was other peoples immortal warlocks. Although Moonlit was well-known in the China competition zone, he was still a bit short of some firepower when it came to the global scene. The audience in the meeting room were also surprised. Gary: Is God Xie giving up? Although intuition said that theyd lose, they didnt have to lose so straightforwardly! Yuan Ze tried to save face for himself. It should be a new routine. It was rare, but Wei Xiao agreed with Yuan Ze. Its possible to have the medicine warlock play in the mid-lane. This was actually a very interesting setup. The two teams had both taken the medicine warlock: EVEs Xie He, and Y1s Yan Jiang. Theyd taken the same profession and talent, but one was using the medicine warlock to play in the mid-lane, while the other was using it to play support. Not only did they find it interesting, but the audience at the arena were obviously thrilled as well. No matter whose fans they were, they all liked to watch the excitement. They were old teammates whod now become enemies and had taken the same hero. The scent of gunpowder was extremely heavy! Xie He really deserved to be the number one prickly thorn in Glory. He hadnt taken the medicine warlock for any other reason than to show it off in front of Yan Jiangs face. He wanted to tell the world that Yan Jiang wasnt the only one who could play the medicine warlock well! This battle of freedom. He was completely freeing himself up and doing as he pleased! There was a skirmish in the jungle zone at the start of the game as both sides started fighting at level two. The medicine warlock from both sides could both deal poison and heal, making this wave of back and forth very thrilling. This fight finally ended with both sides losing one kill. The junglers from both sides were the ones to die. At first glance, it seemed that EVE had taken a bit of the advantage, because First Blood had gone to Xie He! Yuan Ze crossed his arms over his chest and watched calmly. Old G sighed. EVEs First Blood really means they wont win. Yuan Ze wasnt calm anymore: Would you f*cking die if you didnt talk! Old G continued explaining, Really, its very magical, every time God Xie takes First Blood, EVE will start to stray wu Yuan Ze stuffed a piece of watermelon into his mouth. Gary blinked. Yuan Ze: Shut up. Wei Xiao made a pft sound and laughed out loud: It was such a happy thing seeing evil people suffer a loss! By six or seven minutes into the game, the difference between the two medicine warlocks gradually became clear. Xie Hes medicine warlock was an absolute mid-laner talent. It had strong magic attacks and strong ranged damage. It was clearly a talent that didnt have high explosive power, no control, and no movement skills, but Xie He was able to play out an assassin mage talent effect with it, like the immortal warlock, butterfly warlock, or spirit mage. Y1s mid-laner was miserable but couldnt say anything. It was shameful to take an assassin mage yet be suppressed like this! After suppressing the mid-laner until they collapsed, Xie He once again went to make trouble in the top lane. EVEs jungler and Xie He cooperated very well. Hed just finished clearing up the small jungle creeps by the river and had snuck his way along the grass. Three against one, Y1s top-laner was done for! EVE must have thought so, but the audience who were watching from Gods perspective were very nervous. There wasnt only Y1s top-laner in the top lane. Yan Jiang had led his own jungler with him and went behind Xie He and his jungler. When Xie He used his skills and rushed towards Y1s top-laner, Y1s jungler also pounced on him! The mantis catches the cicada, but the yellow sparrow lurks behind! This wave of ganking was amazing! The director gave them a close up. Xie Hes medicine warlock was in its dark form, and Yan Jiangs was in its light form. The medicine warlock had two forms. One was the pale and cold duke of the castle, and the other was a sacred physician shrouded in holy light. The dark and light sides of the same skin appeared in the canyon at the same time like twins resulting in a very beautiful scene. Wei Xiao and the others had turned off the live scrolling comments, but if it was on, they would be able to see all the fans shrill screams! Yan Jiang and Xie He. The physician and the duke. Light and dark. Quiet and violent. All strung together by the medicine warlock talent! EVE suffered heavy losses in this wave of encirclement and suppression. Although they were able to kill Y1s top-laner, theyd lost two people from their own side and a third had been left in critical health. They had no way to protect their top-lane tower. Once Y1 tore open a gap, EVE would fall into a completely passive situation. What was fatal was that a team like EVE was most afraid of being tied up like this. Y1 wouldnt give up an advantage like this that hadnt been easy to obtain and showed an unprecedentedly strong play style. Their mid-jungler-support linkage reached new extremes and completely occupied half of EVEs jungler zone. Not only that, they beat up the bottom lanes marksman until they remained hidden behind their tower. The competition zone championship hung on a fine line. No one wanted to lose! They were both champion teams and had the same pride, the same desire to win. Although it was unknown what was said over team chat, EVE miraculously calmed down and began to look for opportunities. Even if they had to give up a portion of their resources, even if they had to give up advantages along one of their lanes, even if their farm difference continued to increase, they still managed to stabilize their mentalities, like a cheetah holding its breath in the grass, waiting and looking for the best opportunity. The game was about operations. But it was also about opportunities. There were plenty of games where the tables had turned despite a gap in farm of over 8000 gold. There was infinite opportunity up until that last moment when the crystal exploded! Finally, 20 minutes into the game, EVE found an opportunity. Their jungler pounced on Y1s mid-laner whod moved a bit too far forward. Their support, who was following Xie He, gave the whole team a speed buff and caught Y1 off guard with their arrival. Even Yan Jiang was unable to prevent this kind of sudden death. Their mid-laner fell, and their marksman was sniped at. Y1s jungler launched a set of skills but was offset by Xie Hes switch to his light form Three people from Y1 died in a row. Yan Jiang managed to save their top-laner who had high health and defense, as well as their jungler, who had multiple movement skills. The commentators voice was filled with passion, Beautiful! EVE did a great round there! The director displayed a chart that showed the trend of their gold and overall farm. EVE, which had been on the downturn the whole way, gradually rose up because of this round of team fighting. Additionally, they had cleared out the jungler zone and the ancient creature after winning the team fight and reduced their farm gap up from 6000 to 2000. The total farm gap between the two teams was now only 2000, which was a totally acceptable difference. As long as they were given another chance, EVE could even surpass Y1! Tension was mounting. Both sides lost all their outer towers, and they mutually avoided each others vision. The attention and focus of all ten players could be felt through the screen. No matter which side gained the advantage, regardless of which team it was that initiated the same conditions as last time again, it would signal the end of the game. 29 minutes. 30 minutes. 31 minutes. 35 minutes The ten players in full gear collided a total of seven times, and it was in vain each time. They didnt even manage to consume a single resurrection armor. If it went on like this A fight over the ultimate dragon king would determine the winner. Y1 moved first and started fighting the dragon. EVE clearly knew that they were being lured out, but they couldnt just ignore the situation. If they lost the dragon king, then EVE would be done for. They had to fight to the end this time regardless of whether or not it was a trap! EVEs five players appeared on camera. Their jungler, CC, was their team commander. His expression was heavy, and it could be seen from the way his mouth moved that he was calling out Xie. The medicine warlock went up! Xie He took the lead to rush in, locking in on Y1s marksman and mage despite having no advance vision. Due to the terrain in the dragon pit, the positions of the two had to be relatively close. The medicine warlock enchanted himself, using Infusion and Render, then finally landed Heavens Punishment accurately on the two c-position players from Y1. It was a series of skills that went out like floating clouds and flowing water, so amazing that it made peoples scalps go numb. They all watched as Y1s double c-positions health plummeted and they were near a seriously injured state. And the holy light that was the counterpart to this evil light rose up. The same enchantment landed on those same teammates, and the same Infusion and Render was cast on their bodies, followed by another Heavens Punishment, which landed on Xie Hes body! Yan Jiangs medicine warlock could save lives and heal the wounded, but it could also kill people without leaving a single trace. In this short five to six second period, the HP of these three people whod collided together went up and down like a roller coaster, plummeting, soaring, and then plummeting again This heart racing kind of play was already enough to make peoples scalps go numb. What the hell was this double heart racing play! The watching fans forgot to breathe; that was how thrilling the ten players in the canyon were! System announcements rang out one after another. Y1s marksman died. EVEs jungler died. Y1s mid-laner died. EVEs marksman died. The last to fall was Xie He, whod taken a double kill, and the last person still standing was Yan Jiang, who managed to survive with the tiniest sliver of health. The entire venue broke out in fierce applause, and the audience all stood up to appreciate this wonderful battle! The championship belonged to Y1. In this years European competition zone, Y1 lit up the whole stage! xiin: and were back. sorry about the extra-long break & thank you for being so patient while ive been busy <3 im going to give myself leeway to do releases every other day in july to get my stockpiles back up again, and then august will be back to daily releases so that yall can get your daily doses of Wei Xiao crack~ Chapter 206.2: Was this a battle between teams? Yan Jiang still looked the same after winning the championship. He didnt look happy nor sad, just like a calm old monk. Regarding this Everyone was already over it. Xie He frowned, and the big guy beside him was startled when he stood up. Xie. Xie He: Well fight again in the globals. As the competition zone that had produced last years global championship team, the European competition zone had two spots this year. Both the champion and runner up team from their competition zone could enter the globals. It was also this privilege that had made the fight for this years global competition more intense. Was this a battle between teams? No, it was a fight for the glory of the entire competition zone! There was no doubt that Yuan Ze had lost. Wei Xiao looked at him. Captain Yuan? Captain Yuan was grumpy. Useless things! These words could only be said in private. If they were really heard by God Xie, it would turn into real person PK for sure. It just happened that the camera was now focused on the interview. God Xie, whod just lost the game, still had a strong presence about him. It was as though the whole venue was his home, and Y1 was just a little ant that he would step on sooner or later. In the global competition, EVE will definitely defeat Y1. So what if he lost? These harsh words still had to be sent out. Xie Hes character drew both fans and haters. The haters cursed him to death, and his fans loved him to death. Both sides were extreme. Wei Xiao pondered for a moment when he heard this. Ive decided to help God Xie and Captain Yan out. Yuan Ze picked up the joke out of habit. How? Wei Xiao: If EVE and Y1 are eliminated in advance, they wont have to fight! Those seated who understood Chinese: They shouldnt complain about Xie He. This guy from their own team was even more crazy! Out of the major competition zones, China was the only one still competing for first and second place. As the host for this years global competition, the champion teams from each of the other competition zones had already set up their flight tickets one after another in order to arrive ahead of time. The competition committee was very busy, especially the China competition zone branch. The domestic finals had to be set up beautifully as people from all over the world would also be watching the game. This finals game was the warm-up to the global finals, and it was even being held at the same venue. They had to show off the scale and ability of their competition zone, and they mustnt lose face. While they made it a bigger event, it also made this competition in China into a global highlight. Captain Yuan, whod lost the bet, made an appointment for a training match with TPT. Unexpectedly, Kim Sung-hyun called Lu Feng before they started playing. Your opponents are very strong, hey. Lu Feng: Hm? Kim Sung-hyun cleared his throat. We had a training session with them. Seven matches, four wins. Pro was the team who had four wins, of course. But the fact that TPT was able to take three wins meant that they werent very average at all. Lu Feng nodded. TPT has grown up this year. Kim Sung-hyun and Lu Feng had a good relationship, and the proud flower didnt feel as much guilt as the others, so hed occasionally kept in touch with Lu Feng over the past three years. During the era of the Team of Gods, Kim Sung-hyun had already decided to leave a long time ago. Hed originally been sold to China and had wanted to return when the contract expired. There was nothing to find fault with there. Of course, while that might be the truth, it didnt prevent his heart from feeling uncomfortable. So, Kim Sung-hyun had also given up on the singles competition. What was more unexpected was the way Kim Sung-hyun focused on Eurostar. Basically, any team that played against TPT would have a strong impression of Fu Li. This player was really special, both similar to Yan Jiang and yet not. He was both a player and coach, and his overall strength in the canyon was too exaggerated. It was probably because Kim Sung-hyun was an ADC that he was more sensitive to Eurostar. He took six different marksman heroes over seven games, and each one was played well. Hes especially good at hiding from junglers, and it made our own jungler look like a big bull that was stomping around everywhere. I dont know what hes been through, but his nose is as sensitive as a dogs and hes always able to dodge away by a step before anyone reveals themselves Kim Sung-hyuns early experience was quite fierce. Hed been nicknamed proud flower, but he hadnt actually been a greenhouse flower that was protected by everyone. When he was in the Team of Gods, he wouldnt be able to eat even a fart if he couldnt snatch it for himself (naturally, no one would want to eat farts). So, he never cowered and was taken by surprise by the cowardly baby Eurostar, refreshing his understanding of the position. After listening to him, Lu Feng added a sentence, He has a good relationship with Quiet. Kim Sung-hyun was stunned. Lu Feng: The two of them solo together often. Kim Sung-hyun: He got it. At the same time, he also felt a bit of heartache; no wonder he was so sensitive, no wonder Park Guizhi was unable to catch him. With Little Lunatic Wei training him up, hed already become a god by not giving up on the game. After chatting about TPT, Kim Sung-hyun changed the topic and finally got to the key point. I heard that Yuan Ze is living at your place? Lu Feng: Regardless of whether it was the old or the new base, it was still their place. Kim Sung-hyun cleared his throat and said cautiously, We booked our tickets for tomorrow. Lu Feng: Ill arrange for someone to pick you up. They were all old friends, and he would definitely help with this small thing. Kim Sung-hyun hinted, We havent confirmed where were staying yet. Lu Feng: This crazy hinting was almost explicit. Kim Sung-hyun continued, Any recommendations? Lu Feng understood Kim Sung-hyun very well. At this time, if he continued to act as though he didnt understand, it was very likely that he would come over and blow up the base in anger. You dont mind living with Yuan Ze? Lu Feng asked him. Kim Sung-hyun coughed dryly. Whats there to mind? Didnt we live together during the winter training camp. Lu Feng: Oh. Kim Sung-hyun was anxious. So, is there anywhere to live or not? Lu Feng: Yes. Kim Sung-hyun: Then, well Lu Feng: As long as youre willing. Kim Sung-hyun was delighted: Little Close was still more clever and sensible! It was easy for L&P to arrange a training match with TPT. TPTs manager agreed as soon as they offered, without even asking the players opinions. Naturally, the players didnt have any objections. There were some default rules for training matches. They wouldnt share the replay with others, but Wei Xiao and the others didnt need to wait to watch the replay They squatted directly in the training room. This was a bit underhanded, but the really underhanded one was Fu Li. They played three training games, and L&P won them all easily. Old G: Thats it? Hed learned a new phrase and was quickly making use of it. Yuan Ze went straight to the point. Theyre obviously not trying their best. Gary: Thats right the whole network knows where we live. Fu Li would be possessed if he wasnt on guard against them. Wei Xiao disdained Yuan Ze. Its your fault. Yuan Ze: ??? Wei Xiao glared at him. If you werent living at FTW, they would let loose and play properly. FTW was definitely ambitious. How would they give up on the opportunity to train against L&P? This was clearly because they were afraid of alerting FTW. Yuan Ze was choked half to death by his words. If I wasnt living at FTW Would I still be making an appointment for a training match for you at all?! Wei Xiao: Sigh, God Kim is still better, and hes also better with giving oral accounts. Yuan Ze: It really was a case of the later generations suppressing the older ones and killing them off. What kind of fengshui did FTW have? How had they raised up such players where each player was only more beastly than the last? There were two days left before the national finals. FTW was in a good state overall. Theyd practiced many new routines over several training match sessions, and their top-jungler linkage had gradually been honed to its essence, while the overall progress of their team had been speedy. However, if a problem had to be identified with their team, there was one. Little Ning had been an uneasy state these past few days. Previously, for the semi-finals against 3U, Wei Xiao had trained hard with Yue Wenle and forcibly grinded out his survival ability so that he would be able to hold up the bottom lane, win against Brother Sleep, and take a quadrakill to win their ticket to the finals. This time, when they were up against Fu Li, there would undoubtedly be a lot of pressure on the middle lane. But Wei Xiao hadnt shown the slightest intention to polish Ning Zhehan. Little Ning was introverted, stopping just short of speaking about it a few times. Brother Cai discovered it and asked Wei Xiao privately, Arent you going to train Brother Ning? Wei Xiao looked at him. How did our Little Ning provoke you? Brother Cai: He spoke bad-temperedly, Were about to fight against TPT. Arent you going to train him a bit? Like you did with Old Yue. Wei Xiao: Little Ning isnt Old Yue. Brother Cai grew curious. What, is Little Ning better than Old Yue? This was a bit of a touchy question. Wei Xiao was very keen. What, did Little Ning go looking for you? Bai Cai: No, but I think hes a little flustered. Wei Xiao thought about it briefly. Ill go talk to him. Unexpectedly, Ning Zhehan came to find him even before Wei Xiao went looking for him. Little Ning, who was the youngest on the team and the least experienced, also had the smallest amount of courage. But he summoned up his courage and called out to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao felt both amusement and heartache when he saw him like this. What? Ning Zhehans granny gray hair had faded, showing wisps of a golden color. I I want to solo! Wei Xiao: You want assault style training? Ning Zhehan nodded hard. Yes! Wei Xiao didnt say anything. Ning Zhehan added hurriedly, Im not afraid; Im not afraid of anything! As long as he didnt drag the team down, as long as they could win the finals, as long as they could obtain the global competition quota, he could deal with unlimited bitterness! Wei Xiao lowered his voice and said softly, No need. Ning Zhehan was stunned and looked up abruptly, meeting his gaze with eyes filled with panic. What did he mean What did no need mean Was it that solo wouldnt help him improve? Was it that he wouldnt be able to get stronger in a couple of days? Was it that he Half a second of time was enough for Ning Zhehans face to turn ghostly pale. Wei Xiao finished his words, Just keep up the status quo. Ning Zhehan was in a daze, his brain filled with cotton. Wei Xiao sighed. This is the countermeasure that we came up with after discussing it with the captain. I originally didnt want to tell you, but Since he was already this nervous, it would be more detrimental not to say it. Ning Zhehan stuttered and asked, What countermeasure? Wei Xiao: The countermeasure is to remain the same without changing, using the simplest Little Ning to deal with the most slippery Old Fu Li. xiin: the simplest Little Ning~ Chapter 207.1: The truth is what seduces people. Ning Zhehan was dazed for a beat, then finally came up with a sentence, So its like a king level player trying to predict a bronze? There were several ranking segments in Glory, of which the highest was king and the lowest was bronze. Translated to layman terms, this referred to a super-god level player facing a rookie baby. It wasnt easy to predict what theyd do at all. Wei Xiao clicked him on the forehead. What are you thinking! Youre a national server mage king! Little Ning had gotten several national server rankings even before he had entered the team, and his strength was solid. Otherwise, FTW wouldnt have paid so much to sign him on. Little Nings lips couldnt help but curve up. Then, youre saying that I have a simple brain that just happens to restrain the clever Captain Fu? This child, how come he liked disparaging himself so much? Wei Xiao was sincere and earnest. This is called: an instinctive player has a heavenly advantage over a godly calculator. In fact, the meaning was similar, but this sounded a little more grand. Ning Zhehan was now completely unable to hold down the corners of his lips as they curved up, straight towards the sun. So thats how it is Ahhhhh, he was happy enough to explode! The captain and Brother Xiao hadnt given up on him, and the reason they hadnt given him special training was so that he could play out a better effect. It turned out that he just had to be himself to make the biggest contribution to the team! Wei Xiao: So, youre our killer trump card, got it? Ning Zhehan stood up straight and stopped just short of giving a salute. Got it! Wei Xiao patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction. If youre bored and flustered, theres a special training course I can hand over to you. Little Ning was excited. Tell me, Brother Xiao, I can definitely do it well! Wei Xiao: Go to the training program and practice last hitting soldiers. You dont have to do too much, just 300 rounds. Ning Zhehan: ! Last hitting soldiers was a basic skill for players, but it was also something that had to be trained up well. Ning Zhehans last hit level was okay, but there was no upper limit when it came to this kind of thing. If he could occupy the absolute advantage for his soldier line, then his opponent would have to suffer death, regardless of whether they were a human or a ghost. Little Ning was dazed for half a second before realizing. I get it! Last hitting soldiers is also a subconscious instinct. I have to consciously last hit soldiers so that it becomes a subconscious habit. This way, Ill have more advantages when facing Captain Fu in the lane! Wei Xiao: Cough. Ning Gazed at him with stars in his eyes. Am I right? Wei Xiao, whod just wanted to find him something to do so that he wouldnt panic, felt a little guilty. Yes, thats it. But his tone didnt hold the slightest hint of guilt. Little Ning rushed away happily, muttering before leaving, 300 rounds is too few, I want to challenge 600. Wei Xiao: Fine then, at least last hitting more lane soldiers wouldnt do any harm. Brother Cai, whod been concerned about Ning Zhehan recently, afraid that something would happen with this cub, was surprised to find that granny gray was now filled with ambition, spirit, and vigor. Bai Cai went to find Wei Xiao. What kind of enchanted soup did you feed Little Ning? This was too amazing. Had there even been ten minutes between the before and the after? The Little Ning whod been wilting and withering had turned into a big tree that shot up to the sky! Wei Xiao glanced at him. What enchantment are you talking about? Dont make up gossip about me. He had a vinegar king at home and had to be careful. Bai Cai was too lazy to retort and asked, What exactly did you say to him? It was more effective than the psychologists. Wei Xiao spoke calmly, Did you think my grandmaster name was an empty title? The corner of Bai Cais lips twitched. Its not the same. Wei Xiao: It amounts to the same thing. Brother Cai: Of course, Wei Xiao still told Bai Cai what hed said. Causing a divide in the team because hed kept people guessing was a low level mistake that Wei Xiao wouldnt make. Bai Cai was more perceptive than Little Ning, Youre comforting granny gray, arent you? Wei Xiao asked him in return, Dont you believe in our mage king? Bai Cai fell silent meditatively. Wei Xiao patted him on the shoulder and said, Be a bit more confident. This guy on our team is the newcomer king from last year. Each year, there would be excellent newcomers who stood out in the youth training camp. This so-called newcomer king wasnt an official title, but it meant that a newcomer was too strong and had been acknowledged by everyone. Regardless of whether it was Wei Xiao from back then, or that scum man surnamed Zhou, or even last years Ning Zhehan, their personal strength was indisputable. What Little Ning lacked most wasnt practice or awareness, but experience and mental strength. Fortunately, Wei Xiao could make up for these things that he lacked. Brother Cai breathed a sigh of relief. His expression was filled with disdain, and his mouth went against him, but he was very much won over by Wei Xiao in his heart. In fact, Wei Xiao had also spent a period of time uncertain about what to do for Ning Zhehan. Hed been thinking about it even before the semi-finals ended. Yue Wenle was more familiar to him. After all, theyd soloed countless times before, and Wei Xiao had a good understanding of his character. Afterwards, Brother Cai and Yue Wenle were partners, and Brother Cai would regularly complain to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao might not have been with FTW, but he hadnt skimped on any help he could give. After all, it was the person behind Caicai er, yeah. Wei Xiao could easily mobilize Yue Wenle, but it was a little difficult when it came to Ning Zhehan. Hed played for a whole regular season, but Ning Zhehan had always been middle of the pack. He hadnt dragged anyone back, but his plays werent particularly brilliant either. It could be said that this jungler core play style has concealed his strength, but this was also a reflection of Little Nings character. Timid, cautious. He was clearly very strong on his own, but he was like a rabbit who liked to hide in a hole, lacking self confidence. When faced with such a Ning Zhehan, soloing would only be counterproductive. Then, what should be done? Wei Xiao racked his brains over it for many days. Lu Feng watched and noticed his every move. Its so late, but your brain is full of other men. Is that appropriate? Hed just finished washing up, and his body was still damp. He deliberately moved closer to Wei Xiao as he spoke, making Wei Little Xiaos ears grow a little red from excitement. Ning-something didnt exist anymore. Wei Xiao turned around and wrapped his arms around his neck. Lu Feng bowed his head and kissed him. Wei Xiao hummed under his breath, his hands acting very dishonest. Lu Feng kissed him, but it didnt prevent him from holding down this disobedient hand. Wei Xiao wanted to break free, and Lu Feng intertwined their fingers together. ! Wei Xiao stared at their joined hands. Captain, youre too sneaky. How would he be willing to pull his hand out like this? But how could he tease him if his hand wasnt free? Lu Feng laughed and said, Alright, dont mess around. It was alright when he didnt say it, but once he did, Wei Little Xiao grew even more energetic. The two of them were on the sofa. Wei Xiao pushed until Lu Feng toppled over, then sat down astride him. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao pulled at his collar, his roguish act very well executed. Unfortunately, when he saw the scene beneath his body, his face suddenly flushed redCC Wide shoulders, narrow waist, perfect lines on his chest and abdomen. It was so perfect that it made people want to eat it up. The one lying there was clearly Lu Feng, but he was as calm as ever except for the fire burning in his dark eyes. Wei Xiaos heart started pounding, letting his mouth run instead of admitting his loss, You, what are you me! Lu Feng held him and exerted a little effort. Wei Xiao cried out and fell on him. The world flipped around, and Wei Xiao became the one lying on the sofa. Lu Feng kissed him, his long fingers sliding under his clothes. Wei Xiao gasped, his eyes open wide. It wasnt until Wei Xiaos eyes were overflowing with tears that Lu Feng kissed the tip of his nose. This is me doing it. Wei Xiao: ! When faced with a boyfriend who was getting better and better at it, what should Wei Little Xiao do! He could only toss away his armor and cry and moan. After mutually helping each other out, Wei Xiao was dissatisfied when they went back to bed, Ive almost forgotten how it feels to really wu He was the one who would cry out in pain, but the one who caused trouble was him, too. Lu Feng held him in his arms and distracted him, Worried about Ning Zhehan? The one who understood Wei Little Xiao the best was naturally the great demon king. These worse werent false at all. Wei Xiao settled down. He avoided his left shoulder out of habit, finding a comfortable position before saying, A little. Lu Feng: A little? Wei Xiao emphasized, A little times a million. Lu Feng rubbed his hair. Its not that exaggerated. Wei Xiao sighed. Little Ning has too little experience, and his mentality fluctuates too easily. This was the so-called outsiders seeing things more clearly than those involved phenomenon. It was Wei Xiao who cheered Ning Zhehan up every time, but Wei Xiao was very worried about his mentality. Lu Feng spoke in a low voice, If Im the one playing jungler, then Ning Zhehan would indeed have problems. Wei Xiao couldnt bear to hear anyone saying that Close was bad, including Close himself. Although you dont love playing jungler, youre super strong as a jungler! Lu Feng corrected him deliberately, I love junglers. Wei Xiao: ! When he realized that this jungler was himself, his heart felt sweet enough to explode. Captain, if you continue like this, Im going to Lu Feng pinched him. Enough. Wei Xiao: Youre the one who seduced me first. Lu Feng: Am I wrong? The truth is what seduces people. So I should tell lies in the future? You dont know how to tell lies, you only know to say words of love. Lu Feng laughed briefly, then brought the topic back, With you there, therell be no problems with Ning Zhehan. Wei Xiao was a player who could adjust his teammates states when needed. Wei Xiaos heart still didnt feel relieved. Old Fus not simple. If Little Ning goes up against him straight on, its really To be honest, Wei Xiao wouldnt panic even if Ning Zhehan was going up against Moonlit. If it came to an outright fight over skills, Little Ning wasnt lacking in anything; Ning Zhehan himself was clear about his lack of experience, and he could coax him even if he came up a little short. But Fu Li Chapter 207.2: If I die at Kim Sung-hyuns hands, Id still make a fashionable ghost. Lu Feng said, Its not necessarily a bad thing. Wei Xiao lifted his head up to look at him. Hm? Lu Feng said, Have you played chess before? Wei Xiao shook his head. Hed been focused on making a living from a young age and hadnt cultivated any hobbies. Gaming had been an unexpected surprise. Lu Feng had thought of this too. He kissed the tips of his hair in distress and said gently, Playing chess usually involves calculating three different paths with each step. Wei Xiao: I get it! You mean thinking many steps ahead with every step. Theres no need to think so many steps ahead. Wei Xiao was a curious little baby. What do you mean? For example, if the two of us are playing chess. I know how to play, but you dont. I really dont know how to play, but, captain, you can do anything! Lu Feng didnt get distracted by his words and went on, I can play chess, and Fu Li knows how to play chess. If the two of us play, hell calculate what Ill do three steps ahead, while I calculate four steps ahead. In that case, Ill win. Wei Xiao nodded. Lu Feng continued, If we switch people, and I play chess with you. Ill calculate three steps ahead, but you dont calculate a single step. Who will win? Wei Xiaos eyes lit up. He got it! To put it bluntly, this was a hierarchy problem. To win over a person, it was best if you were one level higher than them. If your level was too high, then it wouldnt work. For example, the question of whether to go left or right. A level one person would go left. A second level person would guess that the level one person would go to the left, so he would go to the right. The third level person would guess that the second level person would go right, so he would go left. So, what was the difference in choice between the person on level one and level three? Ning Zhehan and Fu Lis situation was similar. The difference between them was definitely more than one level. So, a Ning Zhehan who hadnt changed at all, would be the most difficult for Fu Li to deal with. Wei Xiao understood now and was fully convinced about his boyfriends strength, Its still the captain who is most amazing! Fortunately, there wasnt anyone nearby. Otherwise, Wei Little Xiao would be able to praise him for half an hour. Lu Feng pressed him down. Can you sleep now? Wei Xiaos eyes curved, How about Captain acts even more amazingly? Lu Feng: Regardless of how amazing it was, there still came a time when Wei Little Xiao started crying. After coaxing Wei Xiao to sleep, Lu Feng went up to the balcony to stand under the night wind. The domestic champion, the national champion. Could they really go all the way to the end? Would there really be freedom if they went all the way to the end? Lu Feng dropped his gaze and looked at the plum tree leaves that had already withered in the garden. Pro arrived in S City. Lu Feng arranged for the van to go and pick them up from the airport, and Yuan Ze took over this heavy responsibility, saying that he couldnt just live there for nothing, and he should do some work to contribute. Wei Xiao: Youre not afraid that God Kim will kill you? Yuan Ze just wanted to see Kim Sung-hyun collapse and didnt care about his death. If I die at Kim Sung-hyuns hands, Id still make a fashionable ghost. Wei Xiao: He couldnt compare with him. He was a real living gay, but he was losing to those straight men! Yuan Ze personally went to pick them up, giving the cubs from Pro a scare as they hurriedly greeted him. Yuan Zes Korean was extremely fluent, and he soon won over Park Guizhi and the others. Li Heran was older than Yuan Ze and wasnt as polite. Yuan Ze asked him, Hows your wrist been recently? Kim Sung-hyun replied, Dont worry, it wont be a problem to play until you retire. Yuan Ze was in a good mood and didnt get angry. In that case, you have to hold on for a few more years. Kim Sung-hyun crossed his hands over his chest and looked at him. How come you came to pick me up? Yuan Ze: Cant I have missed you? Kim Sung-hyun was disgusted. You missed a fart! Yuan Ze: Why are you saying that youre a fart? Kim Sung-hyun: Yuan Ze was afraid of beating the grass and scaring away the snake and placated him, I cant just live at FTW for nothing. Helping to pick someone up from the airport isnt a big deal. Besides, we know each other so well. Kim Sung-hyun couldnt bear it anymore. He used Chinese to complain, Old Shit Yuan, youre really disgusting today. Yuan Ze replied in Korean, Thats right, Ive always been so handsome. The Pro team who couldnt understand Chinese, What are you guys talking about?! Kim Sung-hyun was too lazy to pay attention to him and spoke to Li Heran, Change seats. Hed originally been the one sitting in the aisle. Li Heran got up. Kim Sung-hyun sat inside, closed his eyes, and kept his mind clear, paying no further attention to Dog Yuan. One of Yuan Zes hobbies was teaching people to speak Chinese. This car was filled with foreign friends who had to be treated well. So Come on, Ill teach you guys how to read Kim Sung-hyuns name in Chinese. Kim Sung-hyun: Park Guizhi was very enthusiastic. How? Yuan Ze: Ass Kim. Kim Sung-hyun: Yuan Ze! Yuan Ze: What are you calling me for, Ass Kim? If it hadnt been for Li Heran blocking the way, Kim Sung-hyun wouldve kicked him out of the car! They finally arrived at the base. Yuan Ze was inspired by Wei Xiaos trick and deliberately had the driver stop at the new FTW base. The crowd from Pro enjoyed the sight of the FTW castle and let out surprised exclamations. Theyd really been lucky with the land allocations, to be approved for such a large manor! Kim Sung-hyun had already had enough of Yuan Ze and wanted to get off the car. Yuan Ze smiled like a fox. Were not there yet. Park Guizhi was surprised. Are we driving in directly? Yuan Ze smiled and didnt say a word. Kim Sung-hyun really knew him, and his heart couldnt help but stutter. Old Bandit Yuan Ze: Yes? He replied very smoothly. Kim Sung-hyun: You When they finally arrived at the base, Kim Sung-hyun exploded on the spot. Dog Shit Yuan! Yuan Ze didnt hear a thing. Kim Sung-hyun: Are you f*cking human! He really wasnt. It had been three years. How could God Kim have forgotten what his old teammate was like? The welcome banquet was very grand. The three teams together added up to nearly 20 people, and it hadnt been easy to book such a large table. There was a lazy susan in the middle of the table, with a beautiful centerpiece of flowing water and flowers. lazy susan C those round spinning things that sit at the middle of big tables The advantage of such a big table was that people could sit far away from each other. For example, the length of the whole table separated God Kim from Captain Yuan. It was the furthest they could get from each other while still being on the same table. Nobody in Pro had any opinions about living at FTWs old base. The base was large enough, and it had been tidied up thoroughly. The most important thing was that it was equipped with everything they needed and wasnt inferior to living on their own base. It was also more convenient than staying at a hotel. After Kim Sung-hyun calmed down, Li Heran spoke, The hotel we contacted before still has free rooms. Kim Sung-hyun shook his head. Well live here. Li Heran: You Kim Sung-hyun held onto the railing, looking out at this familiar, yet strange scene. He sighed, Its quite nice this way. The place where it started, the place where it ended. Although he still wanted to kill Yuan Ze, he was also a little grateful. Perhaps this would be their last reunion, and their last time living together under one roof. It was really quite nice, being here. Given that there was still some time before the global competition, L&P and Pro both drank a bit of beer. It turned out that, when it came to smoking, professional players could each smoke enough for ten people. But when it came to drinking ten of them couldnt drink as much as one ordinary person. Alcohol tolerance was something that had to be trained up. Alcohol was banned when they had to play professionally, so none of them were good at it. After downing half a glass of beer into his belly, Kim Sung-hyun began to rage at Yuan Ze for not being a person. Yuan Ze smiled like a fox. How about you pull someone else in with you? Yan Jiang and Xie He were also on the way. It seemed like they wanted to arrive before the domestic finals in China were held. Kim Sung-hyun was exasperated. Who! Give me a name! Yuan Ze: Cough It really wasnt easy to come up with a name. Yan Jiang wasnt likely to fall for it, and they couldnt afford to provoke Xie He. Kim Sung-hyun looked like an aloof and cold proud flower, and while Xie He looked like he was 1.7 meters, he was actually 2.8 meters. He couldnt be provoked, couldnt be provoked at all. He couldnt pull someone else in with him, but Kim Sung-hyun still ordered Yuan Ze, Dont expose it. Yuan Ze got it. We definitely cant let them know where were living. Kim Sung-hyun: Especially me! Yuan Ze: Got it. Kim Sung-hyun didnt believe him and threatened him directly, If you expose me, Ill Yuan Ze: What will you do? Kim Sung-hyun: Ill post you up all over the internet! Yuan Ze was quite curious. Post what? Kim Sung-hyun: Post up the naked photos of you from three years ago. Yuan Ze was really shocked. F*ck me, you really kept it! Kim Sung-hyun was finally able to win one round and was in a great mood. Wei Xiao, who hadnt touched any wine and was drinking watermelon juice, asked Lu Feng, They Lu Feng peeled a crab leg for him and placed it on his plate. Theyre the same even when they dont drink. Wei Xiao: The Team of Gods from back then was a sand sculpture team in essence! Yan Jiang and Xie He both arrived one day before the finals. At this time, everyone in FTW was already in closed up training and wasnt seeing anyone, not even if they were the king of heaven. For them to pick this time to arrive meant that they likely werent thinking about revisiting old times. After all, in terms of relationships, these two werent as close to Close as Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun were. Coupled with how theyd been in a separate group for the winter training camp, it made them even more distant. Xie He contacted Kim Sung-hyun after he landed. As the most prickly person in the team, Xie Hes relationship with everyone was pretty much the same. However, when the other choice was Beast Yuan, he still chose Proud Flower Kim. Kim Sung-hyun went out to see him, and the two of them had a couple of drinks. Xie He asked carelessly, Where are you guys staying? Kim Sung-hyun paused. Xie He continued, Is L&P living with FTW? This wasnt a secret, but no one knew that Yuan Ze wasnt living in the new base and was living in the old base instead. Kim Sung-hyun nodded and changed the topic. The two talked about their situation in recent years, and then Xie He suddenly came up with another sentence, Did you go back to the base? How could Kim Sung-hyun not understand what he meant once these words came out? Their base could only refer to the old building from three years ago. Xie He bowed his head and swirled his coffee cup, asking softly, Go back and visit it together? Kim Sung-hyun: ! The author has something to say: Proud Flower: Theres really no need! Xie He: Chapter 208.1: Its so-so. Just number one in the world. Go. Back. And. Visit. It. Together? What was there to see? Watch them make a fool of themselves? The FTW that had been abandoned just like that three years ago was now a place that they missed and wanted to go back to? Proud Flower Kim didnt need his dignity anymore? Theyd really thought it through and calculated everything thousands of times over, but they hadnt guessed that Xie He would take the initiative to ask to come back and have a look. As the fiercest player in the team, Xie He wasnt very sociable. He would reply with his fists if he was laughed at for being short. If he was ridiculed for his lack of strength, hed arrange for a solo match. If he had poor achievements or performed badly, hed increase his own training by three or four times over. He was a fierce man who would never speak if he could fight it out instead, yet hed said such a thing to Kim Sung-hyunCChe had to mull it over, mull it over in detail. Xie He missed FTW. Once Kim Sung-hyun understood this point, a large part of his heart grew soft. FTW was Xie Hes first team, the place where hed gotten his first MVP, his first group champion, his first domestic champion, and his first global championship. When the Team of Gods fell apart, the pain he felt was no less than Closes. Close had the ability to recover, but Xie Hewas helpless and couldnt even stay in China. Kim Sung-hyun, whod been uprooted and sent away from home, understood Xie Hes mood. No matter how good a foreign team was, no matter how good their achievements were, getting championship after championship still wasnt as good as being back in his home country. The sense of sureness that came from within was what people who were wandering outside desired the most. Kim Sung-hyun sighed. Xie He had already returned to his prickly self. If you dont want to, then forget it. Kim Sung-hyun: It wasnt that he didnt want to, but that he was already living there! These words ultimately werent spoken out loud. After all, he was now an Old Proud Flower, and his ego was bigger than the sky. Kim Sung-hyun pondered over it and finally came up with an excuse, Lets wait until the finals are over tomorrow. Xie He frowned. Kim Sung-hyun explained, Its Closes place after all. Youll have to say hello to him when you go. Although it was deserted (full of inhabitants), it was still FTWs private property, and they should say something if they were going for a visit. FTW was in the midst of preparing for the finals, and it wouldnt be good if they pestered them with this kind of thing at this time. Xie He paused briefly. Kim Sung-hyun was really afraid that hed come up with another sentence: Ill just take a look from the outside. Fortunately, God Xie didnt only want to look at the base from outside and wanted to go in. So, he nodded and agreed, Okay. Kim Sung-hyun breathed out a sigh of relief and felt like hed escaped a calamity. The two of them continued chatting for a while, but soon ran out of topics. It was obvious that Xie He had only invited Kim Sung-hyun out for one purposeCCto go back to FTW and have a look. Once this goal was achieved, God Xie didnt want to chat anymore. Kim Sung-hyun tested the waters. Then, Ill see you tomorrow? Xie He got up. Okay. Kim Sung-hyun: Although Kim Sung-hyun didnt want to continue forcing a conversation with him either, why was Xie Hes behavior even more obvious than his own? Hed lost. He was unhappy. Kim Sung-hyun went to look for Yuan Ze as soon as he went back. Hurry up and contact someone for a place to live C we need to move out tomorrow. Yuan Ze was surprised. Is Lulu so ruthless? Only letting us live here for three days? Or was it that Little Lunatic Wei had whispered something in his ear during their pillow talk? Kim Sung-hyun told him about Xie He coming to visit. If you dont want to lose your old face, then be quick about it. Yuan Ze relaxed. Just let him come. Well do our best as hosts. Kim Sung-hyun looked at him in shock. Wheres your face?! Yuan Ze wasnt a proud flower; old dogs didnt need any face. Whats the point of face? Theres no room for him to live here even if he wants to come. FTWs old base was just a villa. L&P, Pro, and their entourages had already filled it up. There were no vacant rooms left. Kim Sung-hyun couldnt answer for a moment. Yuan Ze spoke coolly, You move out, then. Ill be here in any case, and Ill ask Old Xie if he wants to stay here when he comes over. Kim Sung-hyun: Have him move out so that Xie He could move in? Oh, it was better to just to piss him off. Kim Sung-hyun calmed down. Thats right, what kind of face did he want to keep? He wasnt going to let go of this deal, and wasnt going to move out! As for Xie Hes visit Just let him look if he wanted to! There was no room for him even if he came for a visit! On the eve of the national finals. Chen Feng stopped all training as usual and told them to rest early. At the same time, he gave them some precautions to look out for. Xiang Liu had focused all his attention on logistics for the past two days out of fear that the players wouldnt be able to eat, drink, or sleep well, and it might affect their state for the competition. Although it wasnt the first time theyd reached the finals, thered been no lessening in the amount of tension that they felt. Even without mentioning the starters, the staff on the base were also nervous. They had that state of mind, like parents on the eve of the college entrance examination: cautious, flustered, and worried that even the smallest thing could affect the candidates. It was impossible not to sense this atmosphere. Little Ning, whod been in a good mood for two consecutive days, began to panic again. Old Yue was still someone whod gone through it all once and was extremely stable. He was even able to coax Ning Zhehan using his own godly logic. See this potato chip? I see it! Bite it into pieces, and youll be stable tomorrow. Brother Cai, whod been listening from the side. Damned if you believe that. But some people really did believe it. Little Ning accepted the potato chip seriously, his expression solemn. Yue Wenle encouraged him, Bite it. Little Ning nodded. Okay! He put the potato chip into his mouth and stared at Yue Wenle. Old Yues gaze was firm. There was a crunch sound, and Little Nings eyes lit up. Yue Wenle patted him on the shoulder and said sincerely, Young fellow, youre good. Ning Zhehan smiled with joy, and it was clear his spirits had been lifted up one hundred times over. Brother Cai propped his cheek against his hand watched on expressionlessly: He often felt out of place amongst his teammates due to his high intelligence quotient, what should he do? Cub Ning was happy to share this joy with others and brought a potato chip over to Bai Cai. Brother Cai, you should give it a try too! Bai Cai bit the potato chip. Ning Zhehan clenched his fists, and his expression completely qualified for a you can do it expression pack. Crunch... Yue Wenle gave Brother Cai a thumbs up. Brother Cai felt like there was no love in this world. While the three little ones amused themselves, Wei Xiao had already gone upstairs a long time ago, looking for his boyfriend to act all lovey-dovey. Captain~ Mm. Im nervous. Im afraid. Im panicking! Lu Feng looked up at his bright eyes. There wasnt the slightest bit of nerves, fear, or panic. Of course, he also understood what Wei Xiao wanted. Lu Feng bowed his head to give him a kiss, then looked at him. Better? Wei Xiaos cheeks were a little red, but he still took a mile after being given an inch. Im not that nervous anymore, but Im still afraid. Lu Feng kissed him again. What about now? Wei Xiao licked his lower lip. Im still a little anxious. Lu Feng continued to kiss him. Wei Xiaos heart was filled with sweetness. He picked up Lu Fengs hand and pressed it over his heart. Its really frantic. You see, its pounding so fast. Lu Feng didnt kiss him anymore and just bowed his head to look at him. Wei Xiaos heart heated under his gaze, and he leaned over to peck him on the lips. I want that from last night. Lu Feng ultimately wasnt able to hold back. He bit at his lips and laid him out on the bed. There was a lot of fun to be found even if they didnt do it all the way. The best way to release pressure was to forget everything. And two people who were in love were really able to make each other forget everything. When they came out of the bathroom, the two of them hugged each other on the bed. Wei Xiao nestled up against Lu Feng and said in a soft voice, . I want to win. He was no longer that happy, smiling face from before, and wasnt joking and messing around. This was a strong desire that came from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to win. They had to win. Win all the way to the end! Lu Feng hugged him hard. Mm. It was like Wei Xiao had heard a promise in his voice. He settled in and went to sleep. Lu Feng looked down at him. Wei Xiaos scattered strands of hair fell gently to his ears, his skin smooth and moist, but his heart was incomparably firm despite his young age. Its not a problem. He kissed him gently, printing his thin lips against his eyebrows. It was as light as a feather and as heavy as a brand. The national final was scheduled for 6 p.m. As one of the grandest events of the year, the scale for the finals was stunning, and the venue that could hold 30,000 people was full to the brim. Brilliant lights, wonderful sounds, and a star-studded guest list. The warm up shows were already enough to make the audience feel like theyd earned back the ticket price. The two teams were already in the waiting area. Although theyd been playing competitively for an entire season, it still felt different now the finals had finally rolled around. Regardless of whether it was make-up, their appearance on stage, or the seating, there were arrangements and regulations for all of it. The organizers remained with the teams the whole time, talking about everything in detail. A new member joined the crunchy chip group. Wei Xiao: Are these potato chips so delicious? How come even Little Ning was eating them? Ning Zhehan quickly taught him the blessing of the potato chip god, amusing Wei Xiao. Give me a chip. Little Ning handed him one, and Wei Xiao held it with his lips. Ning Zhehan was in a panic. Brother Xiao, you have to use your own hand to hold it in order to make that crunching sound! He gestured with his hands. Wei Xiao put it into his mouth: Crunch! Ning Zhehans expression was full of admiration. Its super loud, badass! Wei Xiao was modest. Its so-so. Just number one in the world. Brother Cai, who was to the side getting his eyebrows filled in: Fellow teammates, can we act like normal people! xiin: Wei Xiao: Normal people? Are they crunchy like a potato chip? Crunch! Chapter 208.2: The sun was bright, and glory was infinite! These protagonists backstage were unaware that the venue was already completely fired up outside. The audience were all in their seats, and the invited stars had finished their warm up. They had moved on to the replay of that years Glory highlights. The naked-eye 3D special effects seemed to move the entire Glory Canyon into the venue, leaving the audience so dazzled they kept screaming continuously. It didnt feel the same from the live broadcast room, but even the online viewers were enchanted by the beauty of this scene. Our competition zone has really put in a lot of effort! This is a warm up for the globals. Hosting the games in China was no easy feat. We naturally have to show off fiercely! After these wonderful special effects, the lens seemed to inadvertently land on the front row of the audience stands. At first, the audience didnt take it seriously and continued discussing amongst themselves. It wasnt until someone saw the scene clearly and exclaimed in shock, Yan, Yan The live broadcast room could see it more clearly and directly exploded on the spot! Holy shit! Is the whole Team of Gods here? Captain Yan! God Xie! Brother Kim! Scum Man Yuan! The group photo of the century! For the rest of my life! F*ck! Granny, come quickly, the CP you were chasing when you were young is sending out sugar ahhhhhh. The camera focused on the four former FTW starters whod come to watch the game. Sitting on the far left side of the VIP seats was Yan Jiang, who looked indifferent, his eyes cold as they swept across the camera. Xie He sat to his right. He was leaning back in his chair, his thin body sinking into the seat, but his posture of crossing his arms over his chest was as arrogant as ever. Kim Sung-hyun was to Xie Hes right. He sat upright, and his pale skin seemed to glow in the lights. To the far right was Yuan Ze. He was the only one who was looking directly at the camera, and he even blinked, sending out a scum man wink that garnered him the screams from thousands of girls in the venue. The four from the Team of Gods had come to watch the FTW national finals. This may be something that old fans only dared to think about in their dreams. Theyd broken apart, split up, and wouldnt come in contact even if they grew old and died. But now There were people who really cried out aloud, and those whose hands shook as they typed. I dont care, they all still love Close! They must love him. The youngest Lulu, the youngest brother in the team, the Close who carried everything forward. But theyre wont ever wont ever They couldnt go back. The competition committee really didnt act human. They proceeded to put up a promotional film at this time. Both teams had made promotional films according to their respective themes prior to the finals. TPTs theme was: born from insignificance, fighting to the peak. A team from the very bottom, fighting all the way to the finals. TPT used their strength to tell everyoneCCas long as one had a dream, their future was infinite! FTW was the exact opposite of TPT. They were once the kings of their division, a team that had once been at the peak, but theyd been ripped into, fallen, and were left full of holes. The man standing on the ruins welcomed a new partner, a second, a third, a fourth Only silhouettes could be seen in the promotional video, but viewers could tell who they were from the outlines. The people whod originally still been able to hold back their tears were completely unable to control themselves after watching this video. Their tears burst out of their eyes, and the sound of crying tore out from their heart and lungs. When FTWs team logo showed up on the screen, the entire venue was boiling with emotion. The five people with their backs to the audience stood shoulder to shoulder. Five FTW marked figures came together to make a new team declarationCC The sun was bright, and glory was infinite! The promotional films ended, and the words FTW vs TPT hung suspended in mid-air. This short silence was followed by even more exciting special effects. Holographic projections of all 11 professions in Glory appeared in the arena, followed by their corresponding 145 talents. Countless heroes appeared in the venue filled with 30,000 people, making the players all scream repeatedly. The audience in the live broadcast room were all green with envy. If Id known it would be so wonderful, Laozi wouldve gone to the arena in person even if it meant that I lost my fortune! Snatching up tickets, snatching up tickets! Start snatching up tickets for the global finals right now! Is there a bigger venue than this? 30,000 people is too few! Some members of the audience had sharp eyes and captured the details. Look over there at the Team of Gods! Its distressing, old fans It definitely wasnt a coincidence and had to be a purposeful arrangement. A team of heroes from the 145 scattered in the huge arena just happened to appear beside the Team of Gods. Yuan Zes medicine warlock, Xie Hes immortal warlock, Yuan Zes death knight, Kim Sung-hyuns gold hunter. And the shadow thief who stood beside the top-laners seat on the stage. This is the motherf*cking Team of Gods line-up that won the global championship! It turns out that everyone remembers Three years ago, the five people shrouded in brilliant glory had won the globals with these five heroes! Unquestionable strength, well-deserved champions. Their brilliance had long been recorded in history. Having the old Team of Gods reunite in this way was enough to defeat the tear glands of many fans, causing them to shed tears endlessly. Not only was this a professional players dream, it was also the blood, sweat, and youth of countless casual players! As the venue darkened again, the 145 heroes turned into stars that finally gathered together on the central stage. The battle song began, and the players entered the stage. The past was gone, and the future was something to look forward to. The new FTW was as bright as the scorching sun! Tonight was a carnival for the China competition zone, an exchange between the past and the future, a farewell, and a brand new start! After the hosts sonorous and powerful team introduction, the curtains finally lifted on this final chapter of the season. FTW vs TPT. Who would be the winner?! The contestants settled in and debugged their equipment. The referees checked it over The process was no different between the finals and normal competitions, but there were more spectators, the venue was more heated, and the passionate gazes coming from all directions made peoples fingers feel soft. Wei Xiao moved his fingertips and tested out the mic. It really doesnt feel the same when theres more people. Brother Cai: Nonsense. Wei Xiao: Come on, Brother Ning, crunch! Yue Wenle was quite rigid. Crunch. Ning Zhehan abruptly burst out laughing. When Chen Feng put on his headset, he was greeted with this childish dialogue from immature little children. Alright, then To be able to be so childish during this kind of competition setting was also a type of skill. Are you all ready? It was their captain who spoke up. The four little ones yelled, Were ready! BP began. The banned and selected talents were chosen quickly. There wasnt much to worry about in the first match. They just had to play and be done with it. If theyd prepared enough, done enough training, put in enough blood and tears in exchange for strength, then all they needed was just to let loose and play! FTW had studied TPT deeply. As the team that liked routines the most, their talent pool was very deep. There was no need to mention Fu Li and Eurostar; regardless of whether it was assassin mages or fortress mages, heavy DPS or high agility, both people had their own strong talents. Because they had these two bright stars, the remaining TPT players didnt seem to have any special characteristics. However, ignoring them would mean losing half the battle against TPT even at the start. Eurostar was the target and their core in the later stage. Fu Li was the multi-purpose oil that moved the machine. But the remaining three were important parts of this TPT machine. Their top-laner Wei Ji was an old player whod followed TPT from the trenches to the finals. Born from insignificance, fighting to the peak. He was such a case, a player whod gone up step by step, going from nothingness to the peak! Their jungler, Zhuang Ruishi, came from the same era as Wei Xiao. Two years ago, Wei Xiao had been too dazzling in the youth training camp and covered up the light of countless people, of which Zhuang Ruishi was one. They were both junglers whod started with the shadow thief. But his achievements, which should have shone brightly, had been overshadowed by Wei Xiao until they became nothing in comparison. After that, Wei Xiao had left the professional circle. Zhuang Ruishi had bounced around many clubs before finally finding a firm foothold with TPT one year later. His sharp edges had faded, and what was left was rock-solid faith! Their support player Du Yi was TPTs former captain and their original mid-laner. Later, Fu Li joined the team, and the two spent time training together before Du Yi resolutely dropped his position as captain and mid-laner, entrusting both to Fu Li, who was two years younger than him. Fu Li had told him at the time, Believe in me. I will definitely lead you all to victory. Now, they stood on the stage of the national finals! From the bottom of the pack to the highest stage in China, they were now only one step away from being the champions! The BP ended and the match began. Little Ning took the butterfly warlock, and Fu Li took the demonic mage. Neither side was subtle; they took out big moves for this start of the match. Both of these mid-laners were talents that were strong DPS dealers. Wei Xiao: Guard the first wave of soldiers and wait for me to come back. Ning Zhehan: Got it! Taking the butterfly warlock as a mid lane talent meant that they had to hammer the other sides demonic mage until he collapsed in the early stages. Otherwise, he would be stabbed to death by his magic beams in the later stages. Wei Xiao breathed in lightly and started attacking the first blue daddy. Starting with the blue buff was a standard routine for hidden thieves. What made it a standard routine? Anything that could be easily guessed was a standard routine. But Wei Xiao still chose to start with the blue buff. Why was that? Because the blue buff was near the top lane, and the top lane held Close. Would TPT dare to come stir up trouble? As it turned out, TPT did dare. Fu Li gave out orders, and Zhuang Ruishi approached FTWs blue jungle zone. The audience could see it clearly with their gods perspective. The hidden thief will suffer if it loses the blue buff in the early stages. Zhuang Ruishi came on his own. Wei Xiao wont back down, right? The problem is that Wei Xiao doesnt have vision. How would he know that Zhuang Ruishis there on his own? This was meticulous planning on TPTs part. Zhuang Ruishi went down to his opponents jungle zone on his own. Their support was clearly in the bottom lane, but he hadnt revealed himself to Bai Cai and Yue Wenle. Once Zhuang Ruishi appeared, Wei Xiao would have to act cautiously. He couldnt know for sure if Zhuang Ruishi was on his own or coming over with support. If it was one person, he could still force a fight. But if there were two, then he might lose both his blue daddy and give the other side a First Blood, which would be a great loss. As he was still thinking, Lu Fengs voice rang out in his ear, Little Xiao, attack. Wei Xiao was startled back to his senses and didnt hesitate at all as he gave up on the blue daddy and tossed a set of skills onto Zhuang Ruishis body. The audience was surprised, Hes so reckless! Look at the top lane! Why had Lu Feng dared to have Wei Xiao attack Zhuang Ruishi? It was because hed first forced Wei Ji to the limit. If TPT didnt support their top-laner, then Wei Ji would die. At the same time, Wei Xiao went up to tear into Zhuang Ruishi. How would TPT choose when stuck between a rock and a hard place? Chapter 209.1: You guys should be called ‘the whole team cowers! In this game, TPTs support had chosen the guard shaman. This talents ultimate move was equivalent to teleportation. After using it, the hero would quickly arrive at a teammates side while giving them a short invincibility effect. It was an extremely powerful life-saving skill. In addition, the cooldown time for the guard shamans ultimate move was shorter than teleportation, making it also a very practical skill. Of course, a guard shaman didnt have its ultimate move at level two and would only end up giving its life away if it came over. So, who would he be sending his kill to? Fu Lis words were concise and to the point, Power thief. The light signaling that Du Yi was teleporting shone on Zhuang Ruishis body. TPT chose to give up its top-laner and support Zhuang Ruishi. The commentator: This is a good choice. Wei Jis been caught by Close, and itll be difficult for him to get away. On the other hand, Zhuang Ruishi might have been beaten up by Wei Xiao, but his health is still alright. Du Yis teleportation is ready, and his control skill should be enough for them to kill Wei Ji. Trading their top-laner for FTWs jungler core is very cost-effective. These words were reasonable, but was Wei Xiao that easy to catch? A system announcement sounded out before Du Yi could landCC FTW.Close killed TPT.JILI! The great demon king had once again snatched up First Blood. Each time he did so, it was faster than the previous time, and it was more direct and clean than the previous time. He didnt stop even for the national finals! The commentators couldnt skip out on another round of praise. They praised him so much that even the great demon kings fans all started sending out scrolling comments, Hey, calm down, calm down, this is Closes standard mode of operation. While FTW kicked things off in the top lane, what was the result of TPTs junglers two against one? He hadnt hesitated when he rushed up to attack, and he didnt look back at all when he slipped away. Wei Xiao hid himself and was as slippery as a fish as he bailed. Although it was a loss to lose the blue daddy, First Blood was still theirs, so theyd come out ahead overall! But TPT really wasnt an ordinary team. For them to be able to win all the way to now, and win over the rising RR, how could they be ordinary? In the moment that Du Yi landed, he instantly put out a detection trap and exposed Wei Xiaos figure. Wei Xiao: ! This was the guard shamans first skill, a ground mine that acted like a vision trap. Players often complained about the guard shaman and called it a toolman in the canyon because its first skill and ultimate move were all enhanced versions of shared skills in the game. This detection mines range was over twice that of a normal vision trap. Although there was a time limit on it, unlike the vision trap that would remain until it was pulled out, it was a really disgusting skill that could be used indiscriminately. During BP, Wei Xiao had chosen the hidden thief first, and TPT had chosen the guard shaman afterwards, showing how much importance they placed on him. Wei Xiao was startled. Of course, it wasnt because of the detection trap; hed been mentally prepared and had even shifted to a dead angle, but he hadnt expected that Du Yi would toss his trap at the dead angle. This was embarrassing. Zhuang Ruishi naturally wouldnt miss out on this chance that would only show up once every thousand years. He directly used flash to move forward and cut off Wei Xiaos retreat, wanting to kill the hidden thief no matter what! FTW would have earned big if Wei Xiao didnt die, but it would be another story if Wei Xiao did die! The commentator: Close is rushing over. Quiet has to hold on and wait for support! The short distance between the top lane and the blue jungle zone meant that Lu Feng didnt need to use teleportation. Running over directly was more cost effective, but the problem was System AnnouncementCC TPT.rock killed FTW.Quiet! Wei Xiao died under TPTs jungler and supports attacks. TPT had gotten even! Trading their top-laner for FTWs jungler definitely wasnt a loss for TPT even if theyd lost First Blood. Du Yi had maximised the guard shamans skills to the limit. Hed also placed a detection mine behind himself which allowed him to see Close coming from a very long distance away. Zhuang Ruishi turned around to run. He didnt plan to fight against the great demon king at all. Commentator A: In fact, they can fight. After all, TPT has two people on their side No matter how fierce Close was on his own, he was still only one person, and he was still a single form death knight. If Zhuang Ruishi was a little more ambitious, he might have been able to double kill FTWs top-jungler combo. Commentator Brother Mouth: What are you thinking? Take a look at Closes face. His junglers been killed, and his killing intent is soaring! It was alright before he said it, but once he did, the director really gave a close-up of Lu Fengs face. In fact, Lu Feng was an iceberg all year long. Whether or not there was killing intent was all up to the audiences interpretation. At this moment The CP fans went up to heaven. Ahhhhh, charging in a rage for the jungler king! Even though my Q Cubs dead, this sugars really sweet! Cry and tremble. Get ready to bear the wrath of the great demon king! Du Yi had provided a wonderful wave of vision. Reasonably speaking, Zhuang Ruishi should have been able to escape and live another day. Unexpectedly Butterflies fluttered everywhere. They clearly couldnt smell the fragrance of flowers, but they wove together in the sky as if they were amidst hundreds of flowers. Zhuang Ruishis heart thudded. The butterfly warlocks set of moves flew over, and Zhuang Ruishi, who was under half health, died in an instant. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Silvery killed TPT.rock. Nice! Wei Xiao praised Little Ning fiercely, Thanks for getting revenge for me, Brother Ning! Little Ning was shy. Its-its because Cptain pressured him to come this way. Wei Xiaos words at this moment were just like those from a Close fan, Sigh, thats our captains standard operations. Youre the one who linked it up well. Little Nings heart was just like the butterflies in the canyon, blown up by Brother Xiaos praise until it started dancing. The commentators were in a frenzy over FTWs wave of perfect cooperation, but Little Nings great pleasure was followed by great sadness. Hed just gotten the kill when the other sides demonic mages light beams smashed into him. All four beams landed accurately, triggering a damage stacking effectCC TPT.Auroral killed FTW.Silvery. Stringing him up like a skewer of tanghulu, beautiful! Little Ning: Wei Xiao coaxed him, Dont be afraid, big brother will get revenge for you! His words had just fallen when Close arrived at the mid lane and killed the Fu Li whose skills were all on cooldown. Fu Li didnt even have flash left, because hed used flash along with his first and second skill. After a wave of beautiful plays, hed met the great demon king whod been just around the corner. Life was really filled with ups and downs Wei Xiao hurriedly changed his words when he saw the captain kill Fu Li, Thats not your big brother, its Captain! Im the only one who can call out big brother, you guys shouldnt even think about it! The informed vegetable: Continue going wild; youll be invited to a personal interview with Glorys Mic Explosion King sooner or later! This wave of killing was really an immortal level start to the match for the audience. You kill me, I kill you, you kill me again, and I kill you once again. This wasnt just the mantis catching the cicada with the yellow sparrow lurking behind. There were also evil foxes and big lions behind the yellow sparrow! A group fight with low level heroes could turn into such a lively scene, it was really worthy of being the domestic finals. How exciting! The audiences emotions were stirred up, and they waved their flags and shouted loudly enough that they would probably have to depend on throat lozenges to talk tomorrow. The back rows were ringing with cheers, but the front row was quiet, especially the section where the Team of Gods were. None of them said a word. Yuan Ze smiled like a fox, glancing at Yan Jiang out of the corner of his eye. Xie Hes eyebrows were drawn together in a slight frown, his black eyes fathomless as he stared at the screen. There was no need to say anything, no need for even half a word. The four of them all had similar thoughtsCC Close had changed. FTWs lone wolf now knew how to cooperate. This wave began with TPT invading the jungle zone, but it was obvious that Closes killing of Wei Ji in the top lane had been the real start of the back and forth. Although players died one after another, the seven people whod participated in this fight all exerted their personal strength to the fullest. This included Wei Ji, whod been the first to die. Even though Zhuang Ruishi had been sent home by Ning Zhehan, he wouldnt have been able to escape from the great demon kings grasp to start with if it hadnt been for Wei Jis dying struggles. Close oppressed Wei Ji, cooperating with Wei Xiao to lower Zhuang Ruishis health. Close pursued Zhuang Ruishi. Although Du Yi had revealed his approach, his positioning was very extreme and forced Zhuang Ruishi to run into the butterfly warlocks attack range. Ning Zhehan took Zhuang Ruishis life, then fell into Fu Lis hands, but Close had already been making his way over. Closes cooperation had made crucial contributions to FTWs three kills! Fans whod watched countless FTW games didnt think much about it, but the Team of Gods who were very familiar with Close felt it very deeply. The more familiar they were, the more they understood. The more they understood, the more helpless they felt. How could they not sigh over it when they saw this change? How would Wei Xiao be willing to accept sending up a kill at the start of the game? He quickly finished clearing his jungle, then started setting fires everywhere. TPT was the type of team who didnt like to fight in the early stages. Its core concept was to survive, and it was inevitable that their team atmosphere was a bit slippery. They would avoid fighting any opportunity they could in the early stages, and the fight just now had been an unexpected surprise. Unfortunately, Wei Xiao loved fighting. How would he let them just keep surviving? He frequently created trouble for them all over the place. Reasonably speaking, FTW should gank their bottom lane and try their best to limit Eurostars bubble of survivability, but Eurostar-star was really worthy of his cowardly baby name and managed to survive several waves of ganking, making it not really worth the effort. Wei Xiao: Brother Cai, you and Old Yue hold on. Ill first take down the top lane with the captain. If the bottom lane was a hard bone to crack, then theyd crush the top lane first. Regardless of whether they chose to switch lanes or force a fight, the initiative would be in FTWs hands. This round of decision making was very correct. FTWs top-jungler linkage was one of the best in the league. Wei Ji was miserable. Who the hell can withstand this! It was enough when it was just a great demon king, but now there was a little lunatic. This crazy demon combination was really deadly! Fu Li: Lose the tower, but protect your life. That was all they could do. Even if losing the top lanes first tower was equivalent to feeding the upper jungle one to Little Lunatic Wei, what else could be done? If they didnt choose to retreat, not only would they lose the tower, they would lose a life as well. One kill was 200 gold. Wasnt it better to remain alive? Why would they feed it to the enemy! Wei Ji retreated while Zhuang Ruishi made a feint and attacked Ning Zhehan. Little Ning did as he was told and used himself as bait. When the three people from TPT were attracted over, Wei Xiao teleported over and pounced on Zhuang Ruishi. Revenge had to be taken for his death! Zhuang Ruishi was worthy of being a TPT starter. He had really inherited the crying scrunched up face core principles and didnt use his ground stab to gank. Instead, he used it in reverse and pulled the pouncing Little Lunatic Wei away from him. Wei Xiao: Ning Zhehan: Why were they called the grimacing crying team? You guys should be called the whole team cowers! The three people from TPT were cautious and withdrew fiercely as if the word CAREFUL was written out in capital letters. You want to avoid fighting, right? Then theyd just take down towers and be done with it! Wei Xiao continued to assault the top lane while taking all the income from the top jungle zone into his pocket, growing his farm like crazy. Chapter 209.2: Close, was no longer alone. The director showed the audience their farm panel along with a chart displaying both sides development. It could be seen that FTWs farm was rising up the whole way. After all, they were going through the jungle creeps like crazy, applying pressure on the soldier lanes, and had a few more kills. It would be strange if their farm wasnt high. In contrast, TPT had been on a downturn the whole way. The difference in farm only grew bigger and bigger, and their share of the resources was pitifully small. So, did this mean that TPT was done for in this first match? Of course, it wasnt convenient for the commentators to predict such things. Even if they could see the situation clearly, they wouldnt point it out due to their professionalism. Those at the scene who understood werent only limited to the commentators. There was also Chen Feng who was off-stage, TPTs coaching team, and 3U, RR, and the Team of Gods who were in the audience. They could all see the situation clearly. Eurostar was the biggest bright spot on this farm panel. The farm of the whole team was low, and the whole team was in a much worse situation than FTW. Only Eurostar had the same number of gold coins as Wei Xiao! At this time, Wei Xiao had 6,000 gold and three full pieces of equipment. Eurostar now had 5,900 gold and was about to make his third completed piece of equipment. What did that mean? TPT would be completely different in the mid and late stages of the game! Wasnt FTW aware of this danger? They knew it very clearly. No one was staring at Eurostar more closely than they were, but this was TPTs endurance and their ability to drag the rhythm of the whole team forward. Once Eurostar was all stacked up, then he would be an existence that challenged the heavens and the earth! What kind of early stage did they need? They would be the real daddies in the late stage. Eurostar had never let his teammates down. In the middle stage of the game, TPTs top and middle outer towers had fallen, and most of their jungle zones had been completely occupied. Only the bottom lane was still being defended solidly. When Eurostars three full pieces of equipment were in place, TPT began a strong counterattack! Zhuang Ruishi went to the bottom lane. Wei Xiao notified them, I cant see Brother Stone. Brother Stone was Zhuang Ruishis nickname. It was also because his ID translated into stone. Brother Cai: Got it! Yue Wenle had developed pretty well and wasnt as cowardly. He and Eurostar were old opponents, and there were hints that he wanted to go toe to toe against him. There could only be one number one ADC in the China competition zone. It was Yue Wenle last year, and this year, Eurostar-star had his eye on the position. When it came to the issue of titles, they definitely had to fight to the end. Bai Cai placed a vision trap and probed Zhuang Ruishis position. Be careful, Old Yue. Yue Wenle: Mm. The two of them began to retreat. Unexpectedly, Du Yi, whod always been conservative, suddenly went crazy and used his second skills acceleration in addition to their supports team acceleration equipment to rush up along with Zhuang Ruishi and Eurostar like a gust of wind. Brother Cai: ! As the team support, it was necessary for him to sacrifice himself at critical moments. Brother Cai made a quick decision to cover Yue Wenles retreat. He might be dead, but for better or worse, Yue Wenle would be able to live on. Yue Wenle didnt act recklessly at this moment, either. If he still charged ahead in this kind of situation, it wouldnt just be reckless but simply, seeking death. Unexpectedly, Zhuang Ruishi didnt intend to stop at all. He went under the tower without any soldiers present and forcibly ensured that Yue Wenle couldnt leave. Was this trading his life for his opponents? No Zhuang Ruishi wasnt going to die! Eurostar had already opened up his extension skill and the range of his ice arrows had doubled. The cold arrows shot out, and Yue Wenle died under a critical hit. Bai Cais heart stuttered. His giant shaman with thick skin and high health had actually ended up as fragile as a glass person. One arrow, two arrows, three arrows. It only took four arrows for the giant shaman to die. What was more fatal was that Zhuang Ruishi, whod taken three hits from the tower, shouldve died. But Du Yis ultimate move landed on his head, providing him with a shield that made him invincible for 0.5 seconds, perfectly protecting Zhuang Ruishi from death. Everything happened just right. This level of cooperation was godly! The audience broke out in shrill screams, giving TPT a round of enthusiastic applause for the way theyd boldly turned the tables! With two kills recorded into his accounts, Eurostar, whose farm had already been equal to Wei Xiaos, instantly surpassed him. TPTs big rhythm started up. Despite how badly theyd been suppressed in the early stages, or how their mid and top lane towers had fallen, or how miserable Zhuang Ruishi was, as long as Eurostar didnt fall, TPT could turn the tables from the brink of defeat at any minute! Eurostar left the bottom lane and started wandering around the canyon. There were at least two bodyguards around him at all times. Zhuang Ruishi would feel out the way, while Du Yi threw out detection mines. Coupled with Fu Lis support, FTW was miserable wherever the ice arrows flew. Bai Cai: Damn it, we have to try the guard shaman and frost hunter in the future. This was a demonic combination that was really suffocating. Wei Xiao: In that case, Ill have to use the power thief. The bottom jungler linkage was very important for this combo. One sentence was enough to choke Brother Cai. Line-ups that TPT could use, couldnt necessarily be used by FTW. Their direction was different, and their choices were different. Moreover, the game wasnt over, and it was uncertain if this was a good or bad combination. FTWs fans fell silent. Their small hearts couldnt take it, and they were praying silently. It had been such a good start to the match. If TPT turned the tables, it would affect the players mentalities too much! Dont lose! Although it was only the first match, they really didnt want to see them lose! The frost hunter in the canyon went against the heavens and the earth, and the audience also began to discuss how to help FTW find a breakthrough in low voices. On the Team of Gods side, Yuan Ze tilted his head and looked at Kim Sung-hyun. Your apprentice? Those who were familiar with it would be able to see at a glance that Eurostars play style was very similar to Kim Sung-hyuns. When he stood up in the later stages, he was just like a proud Daddy Kim. In particular, this guard shaman, frost hunter, and power thief combination was one that Pro used often. Kim Sung-hyun stared at the projection of the canyon. The credit goes to his teams demonic mage. Pro and TPTs interactions were limited to the most recent training match. There were others whod really made an impact. The demonic mage was Fu Li. Kim Sung-hyuns sentence showed his great recognition of him. The laymen watched the excitement, while the experts looked at the details. The audience only felt that Eurostar could take down one little friend with each arrow and was very badass, but they didnt think about why he could do it. Repetition could create talent, too. The most terrible thing about Fu Li was that he could help his teammates achieve this effect. Pros routine was publicly known, but it took some ability to learn the essence of it. It was obvious that Fu Li had this ability. Using this routine against FTW was very suitable. Yuan Ze continued, Theyre still a bit tender. He was talking about the current FTW. Dont judge based on how this line-up restrained FTW. In fact, if they wanted to break through this routine, it also required a team like FTW. It was like L&P against Pro. A fierce top-jungler linkage was a nightmare for Kim Sung-hyun. Even if Gary couldnt kill God Kim, Yuan Ze could make up for the missing damage and kill him off. Once Kim Sung-hyun fell, Pro would lose half of its DPS output. Even if there were only three people left alive in L&P, it would be enough to kill the four in Pro. Why couldnt FTW do it? It wasnt that Quiet and Close couldnt do it, but that the other three couldnt. Killing off their core in a two against one meant that it would be three against four. Although L&P centered around their top-jungler combo, their mid-laner, bottom lane, and support were all peak level masters who were enough to take advantage of the gap left by their top-laner and jungler and tear their enemy apart. Could the three little ones from FTW do the same? Maybe they could, but did Quiet and Close dare to trust them with it? Could they trust their teammates like that? Yuan Ze leaned back in his seat, looking forward to the showdown in the canyon. In FTWs team chat. Bai Cai was a little anxious. What should we do? If this drags on for any longer, we wont be able to hold on! Wei Xiao had tried several times, wanting to ambush Eurostar. Unfortunately, this brat was good at surviving, and the guard shamans detection mines meant that he couldnt get close. Wei Xiao and Lu Feng looked at the farm panel at almost the same time. Eurostar was now number one in farm across the whole canyon, but TPT had fallen too far behind in the early stages, and the whole teams overall farm was still lower than FTW. In terms of equipment, other than Eurostar, the four players in TPT were all inferior to FTW. This included Fu Li. As long as they could kill Eurostar, TPT wouldnt be able to hold up against FTWs attacks. But How would they get to him? Bai Cais game awareness was still there. Their farm is still poor right now. When Fu Lis demonic mage rises up, we really wont be able to fight! Time was fleeting. When the farm of everyone in TPT caught up with that of FTW, they would really have no way to win. Wei Xiao inhaled lightly. Captain. Lu Feng: Alright. It was a simple dialogue, but theyd communicated everything that had to be said. The hand Wei Xiao had on his mouse tightened slightly, and his tone was heavy, Old Bai, were handing things over to you. As his voice dropped, he seized the opportunity and rushed at the Eurostar, who was surrounded by layers of protection. Brother Cais heart leapt up, and his goosebumps broke out all over his skin. Are you just going off on your own! This scene was really a bit like that. The hidden thief rushed up and avoided the power thiefs ground stab, but failed to escape Du Yis control. Eurostar was calm and collected as he shot his ice arrows at the hidden thiefs face. Wei Xiaos health bar plummeted, but he didnt intend to retreat at all. He went straight at Eurostar like a deadly wolf that had vowed to tear out a bloody path. Eurostar was stabbed by the hidden blade. The light flickered, indicating a critical hit, and half of his health was gone. A system announcement rang out at the same time: TPT.Star killed FTW.Quiet! Wei Xiao fell. Eurostar breathed a sigh of relief, but the death knights three headed dog came rushing over. Du Yi blocked in front of him and took part of the damage, but the death knight connected his skills very quickly, a heavy blade sending Du Yi flying. His sanctions landed, his soul cry demonizing Fu Li, who was attempting to use his skills, and he was finally able to stab Eurostar. There was no way for Eurostar to retreat. He couldnt hide, and could only grit his teeth. Ill trade myself for him! One arrow, two arrows. When he died, the death knight fell to the ground alongside him! It took both Quiet and Closes efforts to kill TPTs Star. Brother Cai sucked in a breath. Go! Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan: Yes! The butterfly warlocks butterflies covered the canyon, and the gun launchers gunfire swept across the four from TPT. Three against five. FTWs most immature three little ones faced up against TPTs four experienced players! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Le killed TPT.Du. TPT.Auroral killed FTW.White. FTW.Le killed TPT.Rock. FTW.Silvery killed TPT.Jili. There were only three people left in the canyon. Ning Zhehan, who was seriously injured, Yue Wenle, who had a third of his health, and Fu Li, who was on the verge of serious injury. Fu Li used flash and tried to escape. Ning Zhehan flew over with his butterflies regardless of his own life or death. Magic beams hit the butterfly warlock. Butterflies landed on the demonic mages shoulder! They both toppled at the same time! Only FTWs marksman, Yue Wenle, was left in the canyon. The commentators voice was excited. Is there enough time? Is there enough time in their resurrection countdowns? The fastest resurrection time for TPT is 28 seconds. Its enough for the gun launcher to push all the way to the crystal! The canyon collapsed, the sound exploding through their headsets. Bai Cai and Ning Zhehan wished they could snatch up their keyboards and mice to help him click on the tower. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1! The TPT crystal exploded the moment Eurostar resurrected. FTW won the first match! The venue filled with 30,000 people exploded with excitement! Amazing, FTW! Finally, it wasnt just Close who was amazing. The audience was cheering for the whole team. Close, was no longer alone. Chapter 210.1: An excuse to hug right out in the open! The national finals were different from other competitions. As the grand finale for the entire competition zone, the game organizers naturally hoped that the teams could play out the most wonderful games that they were capable of, so there was a short backstage rest after each match. The players got up and left the stage, returning to their backstage lounge from two separate directions. The commentators were still going over the game just now. Both FTW, whod won the match, and TPT, whod lost the match by a narrow margin, had shown absolute strength. TPTs system of four protecting one always has strong firepower. Eurostar exerted his strength in the mid and late stages and forced FTW to trade two people for his life. FTW chose the right time. Its hard to say what the result would be if theyd continued letting it drag on. The game was already over, so the commentators didnt have to be so stiff. They spoke more freely, their comments were more accurate, and the audience also listened very carefully. The camera panned over the audience slowly, stopping on the row with the Team of Gods. It was a fleeting scene, but the audience in the live broadcast room had seen it clearly. Yan Jiang, Xie He, Kim Sung-hyun, and Yuan Ze were all silent, as though the game in the canyon hadnt ended, and they were still watching. The haters immediately began to flame, Shocked, arent you! Shocked by our local competition zone! Wake up, traitors, FTWs still awesome without you garbage! I really dont know what theyre doing here. Are they just here for self-humiliation? What Team of Gods was this? Be a bit less shameless, traitors! The scrolling comments swept by quickly. The room moderators had to carefully go through the comments from these haters in order to delete them in a timely manner. Meanwhile, there were more rational fans sighingCC Although God Yans face was expressionless, although God Xie was frowning slightly, although God Kims expression was cold, and although Scum Man Yuans peach blossom eyes were downcast, I feel that they were actually happy. Glad that their Lulu has a new partner? What do you mean, new partner? Its that he finally has a partner! Holy shit, whats the matter with you, previous poster? Why do your words hold so much Dont you guys have any awareness of how our great demon kings life has been over the past three years? Why should I hold back? Start crying with me! As a career fan, Im feeling a little arrogant. Fellow brothers, I want to see FTW get a 3:0 championship! Not only are you arrogant, youre also dreaming. Are you treating our TPT like theyre vegetarian! If it was the FTW from the past, TPT might still have had the strength to fight back. But to be honest, no one can stop FTW in their current state! When was the last time there was a 3:0 for the finals The Team of Gods three years ago! F*ck! Im sorry, Im feeling crazy too. I want to witness the birth of a new Team of Gods! In the backstage lounge, FTW was in high spirits. Tang Chen was waiting for them at the entrance. When he saw Little Ning coming, he gave him a big hug. Beautiful! Little Nings hands had been trembling from when he stepped off stage until now. Brother Tang He was whimpering. Brother Tang was really a very busy person at the moment. Seeing that Yue Wenle was approaching, he released Little Ning and went to hug him, too. Badass! Granny gray, who was hovering between crying and not: Yue Wenle was in a daze. Oh. He was obviously out of power. He looked like he needed some potato chips to continue on living. Brother Cai didnt want this hug of love and tried to avoid it. Unfortunately, Comrade Tang was too broad and blocked the entrance, stopping him with an arm and giving him a hug. Brother Tang: Cool! Bai Cai: He was about to get strangled to death! Wei Xiao and Lu Feng came at the end. Brother Tang wanted to hug Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao turned back and pounced on Lu Feng, poking his head out to say, Brother Tang, me and the captain will just hug each other. Theres no need to bother you with it! Lu Feng: Wei Xiao ignored it. This was an excuse to hug right out in the open! Hed be missing out for nothing if he didnt hug! Chen Feng was responsible for pouring cold water over them, Youve only won a small match, yet youre acting like youve already won the national championship? Great. Brother Tang gave them support, and Chen Feng cooled down the atmosphere. This made the small tails of the little ones in the team droop right back down. Chen Feng would adjust his tone according to their state. He could encourage them if they were downcast, and pressure them if their egos were inflated. This kind of psychological assistance was part of his job as a coach. Theyd played well in the first match and won beautifully, but there were still many problems. Chen Feng picked out the key points and had them calm down for the next hard fight. The entire China competition zone knows that TPT is a team that warms up slowly. Losing the first game is a common occurrence for them, so dont take it lightly The FTW lounge was lively and bustling, while TPTs side was unusually quiet. After sitting down on the sofa, Eurostar picked up a bottle of mineral water and drank down several gulps of water in one go. He always liked to laugh and mess around and had a lively personality, but there was no smile on his face right now. The dimples that could often be seen had disappeared. Theyd lost the first match. They often lost at the start of a game, but the atmosphere had never been as tense as it was now. What theyd lost wasnt just the first match, but their invincible system of four protecting one. TPT was very serious about this national final. When it came to their opponent, FTW, theyd also shown absolute respect. There was no need to test the waters, no need to grope around. They didnt want to lose a single kill or a single match. Theyd put in all their effort into this fight, and yet as a result Theyd lost. Eurostar felt a little flustered in his heart. This was a major drawback to the four protecting one system. Four of the players had put the hope of the entire team on one person, trying to create space for him to develop and giving him all the farm he could get. Eurostar had lived up to expectations, playing strongly in the middle and late stages and had almost led their team to victory, but Hed been killed. The advantage that theyd built up with so much difficulty had collapsed in an instant. Guilt, remorse. Eurostar couldnt help hating himself. He still wasnt strong enough, and he was still a long way off. Otherwise Zhuang Ruishi patted him on the shoulder. Its okay. Its just the first game. Eurostar bowed his head, his short hair covering his eyes as he stared at the mineral water in his hand. Mm. Wei Ji spoke up too, Weve already played really well. Thats the peak level top-jungler combo in China. At the end of the day, Du Yi was a veteran player with a steady mentality. He joked, Only the top in China? Theyre the top in the world, okay? Those two are even stronger than Yuan Ze and Gary. The atmosphere in TPTs lounge eased up as soon as those words came out. Eurostars mood relaxed slightly, as well. His frown loosened and he looked at Fu Li out of the corner of his eyes. Fu Li had his gaze lowered, his index finger against his chin. He was obviously thinking and hadnt noticed their conversation. Eurostars gaze darkened again. The coach touched on some points from the match just now, his tone gentle and soft as if he was afraid of over-stimulating them. When Fu Li finished thinking and looked up, their coach immediately shut up. Everyones gazes moved to him. Fu Li said, We cant let go of the early stages. When fighting against FTW, we have to grasp the rhythm in the early stages. Zhuang Ruishi: Mess with Ning Zhehan? Fu Li nodded and said, Stone, keep your eyes on the top lane. Brother Du will follow me, and Star Cub, you take the storm hunter. Eurostar was stunned. Fu Li didnt look at him, but he raised his hand and pressed it lightly against the top of his hair. His tone was very light, Protect yourself well. Eurostars Adams apple shifted as he responded seriously, Yes! After the break ended, Fu Li got up. Lets go. This would be a tough fight. After a whole season of tempering, FTW was undergoing rapid growth at every minute, every second. It was very difficult to win against a team that was so full of potential. But they were the only ones who could do it! At the beginning of the second match, Wei Xiao could keenly sense that there was something going on even during the BP session with TPT. Are they going to snatch up the immortal warlock? Chen Feng naturally sensed it as well. Pay attention to the mid-lane. Ning Zhehan sat up straight and comforted himself, Im not scared of him! Wei Xiao laughed. Thats right, our God Ning isnt afraid of anyone! God Ning wasnt able to keep the corners of his mouth from curving up. Chen Feng flicked the back of Wei Xiaos head. Settle down. Wei Xiao deliberately cried out in pain, like it was really painful. The camera showed their interactions, and the fans saw a happy and joking FTW. They all started guessing, Theres no prize, but Im guessing that God Q said something to make the brutal Queen Chen bonk him on the head? What else could he be saying? He must be flirting blindly. Flirting with who? With who? Im betting my kneecaps that its the great demon king! Im taking those kneecaps, upstairs. Its obviously not the great demon king. Just take a look at our iceberg Lulu, hes clearly jealous. Let me just interject for a moment, Close has a perennial poker face. How can you guys interpret so many emotions from it? Take a micro-expression management class, and youll be satisfied with the sugar you get to eat. What micro-expression management? Its just taking knives as sugar, okay! Dont digress from the main topic. Lets keep guessing. Im betting that its Brother Cai. The Jungler King dotes on his little wife, this is great! In that case, Im going to bet on Old Chips. I bet on Little Ningning! Sigh, being a Quiet fan is great. Hes good with everyone. So what was the result of this contest? Glorys Mic Explosion King sent out an official scrolling comment, The results will be announced after the game. So, there was a screen filled with 666 in the scrolling comments. TPT had first pick in the second match. As Wei Xiao had predicted, they locked in the immortal warlock within seconds. When it was FTWs turn to choose, they could choose two heroes after TPTs first pick. What would they choose? Chen Feng pondered it over, If Fu Li is using the immortal warlock, then Eurostar will probably take the storm hunter. Do we want to lock it in directly? If Fu Li wanted to fight in the mid-lane, then it wouldnt be a pure four protecting one system. Eurostar would need a talent that could protect itself, so the storm hunter was his best bet. If FTW took the storm hunter first, then Eurostar would have other options, but they wouldnt be as comfortable as the storm hunter. However Wei Xiao asked, Old Yue, do you want to use the storm hunter? Yue Wenle: Anythings fine. This pause couldnt be hidden from Wei Xiao and Chen Feng. Chen Feng: Take the berserker thief first, then. Wei Xiao: Alright. The storm hunter was left up for grabs. TPT wasnt polite and took it right away. The commentators looked at the line-ups and evaluated, The two teams are both planning to fight over the early stages. The berserker thief, berserker warrior, and spirit mage on one side, with the immortal warlock, storm hunter, and hidden thief on the other side. They were all talents that were strong in the early stages. FTW took a double berserker combination. TPTs a bit at a disadvantage in this round. They have no other way. They have to make a choice if they want to take the immortal warlock and storm hunter together. Lets see if FTWs double berserker will win or if TPTs double flying combo can pull even! Both the immortal warlock and the storm hunter could fly, so they were often jokingly called the double flying combo. After entering the game, TPT made their intention very obvious. Du Yi followed Fu Li in the mid-lane, and it was clear they didnt want Ning Zhehan to have an easy time of it right from the start. Both the immortal warlock and the spirit mage were assassin mage talents. They could rise to the heavens and drill through the earth when they were played well, but they had to sacrifice some of their long distance ranged damage and their ability to control their lanes. The immortal warlock was a bit weaker before it reached level six, but it was also difficult for the spirit mage to do well because most of its attacks were close combat attacks. He would be killed by the other side if he even started thinking about leaving the safety of his tower to clear his lane. This was especially the case with Du Yi by Fu Lis side. He would sometimes toss out a bubble tune and turn Little Ning into a little nothing. Seeing that the mid-lane was having difficulty, Brother Cai said, Ill go with Little Ning. Yue Wenle was playing a gun launcher in this match. It was a marksman hero that could compete with the storm hunter; both sides had some flexibility, and it was fully possible for them to play 1v1. Wei Xiao hesitated but ultimately still agreed, Okay. Chapter 210.2: Kill Fu Li! Everyone understood why he hesitated. Brother Cai and Ning Zhehans cooperation really couldnt compare with Fu Li and Du Yis. This wasnt about the players individual strengths, but the tacit understanding and awareness that was accumulated over time. This was a difficult barrier to cross. FTW was still growing up, and they definitely had their shortcomings. The mid-support linkage was relatively immature, but that didnt matter. They had to face it, accept it, and just move forward step by step. They would definitely improve! Wei Xiao finished clearing his jungle zone and was about to go to the top lane. Lu Feng: Zhuang Ruishi is at the top lane. Wei Xiao: ! There was no vision on the minimap. Lu Feng had probably determined this information by analyzing the trend in the jungle zones. Zhuang Ruishi was in the top lane, so if Wei Xiao went over, the two sides would definitely break out in a skirmish. Was it worth it? Based on Lu Feng and Wei Xiaos ability, they could easily kill the two people on the other team if they waited to gank them; they also wouldnt die if they failed. But Was there a more profitable option? Wei Xiao didnt say much and changed directions, heading straight to the bottom lane. Close could hold up against the two peoples attacks on his own. Since that was the case, he should go to the bottom lane and gank Eurostar. If the success rate was uncertain in a 2v2, then it was definitely much higher in a 2v1! The commentators could see the overall trend from Gods perspective. Quiet didnt go to the top lane. Will Zhuang Ruishi and Wei Ji be able to kill Close? The scrolling comments booed them directly, What are you thinking? Although the sky has already darkened, its still not time for you to start dreaming. The commentators continued, In that case, will FTW be able to catch Eurostar? The scrolling comments were frivolous, Eurostars storm hunter might have the lowest DPS, but his ability to preserve his life is definitely topnotch. So, does that mean this round of top and bottom lane 2v1s is doomed to be fruitless? Holy shit, look at the mid-lane! The director switched the camera over quickly and reached the middle lane. The fights in the top and bottom lanes hadnt yet started when close combat broke out in the mid-lane. The two mid-laners who hadnt yet reached level six and didnt have their ultimate moves had already started fighting. Is Ning Zhehan so reckless? The immortal warlocks already in his face. Would he still be a man if he didnt go for it? But the problem is He cant win, hey. The spirit mage was entangled with the immortal warlock. In this match, Du Yi had taken the holy priest, and the healing quantity of this talent couldnt be over exaggerated. A holy light fell on the immortal warlock, and even before the health that hed lost rose up again, Fu Li had already used connecting clouds to rush up, causing Ning Zhehans health to fall by a third. Bai Cai quickly tossed a light shield to Ning Zhehan, ultimately helping him resist the subsequent damage. Ning Zhehan rolled away from Fu Lis next attack and countered with a wooden thorn. Fu Lis body shifted away lightly, and he avoided the damage. Ning Zhehan was just about to roll back and make use of his passive ability to control the immortal warlock when Du Yis bubble tune arrived one step ahead of him, bouncing from the little soldier at critical health to the spirit mages body. It even bounced over to Bai Cai a couple times. Nice. Fu Lis voice was calm. He seized the chance that Du Yi had created for him, using connecting clouds with landing on clouds, letting them stack up to deal explosive damage. System AnnouncementCC First Blood. TPT.Auroral killed FTW.Silvery! Fu Li took First Blood, tearing open a gap in the mid-lane and aiming straight at FTWs shortcomings! TPTs top lane attack was fruitless. Close didnt even lose a single soldier as he retreated safely. In the bottom lane, Wei Xiao and Yue Wenle cooperated pretty well. They beat up Eurostar until he only had a silver of health left. Although they werent able to complete the attack, theyd managed to harm Eurostar quite a lot by forcing him to lose a group of lane soldiers. TPT gave everyone a different feeling in this match. They were really worthy of being a kaleidoscopic team. In the previous game, it was four protecting one, and in this game, they had a jungler core. It was a variety of routines, and each one was done well! After grabbing First Blood, Fu Lis farm was number one in the whole canyon. They continued with this tactic and continued to pressure the middle lane like crazy. TPTs operation made RR puff up in anger beneath the stage. Money: Old Thief Fu, he stole that really quickly! Moonlit: One persons skills might be inferior to that of others. Mo Hui refused to accept it. Hmph! If Fu Li really won against FTW, he would definitely go and knock him down! TPT and RRs fight in the semi finals had really left them bloodied all over. It was bad enough that RR had lost; theyd also revealed many of their tactics. Who didnt want to win in the top four? Who didnt want to beat FTW? RR had gone through many training matches with FTW in order to figure out a usable set of tactics, and that was the routine that Fu Li was currently using. Their jungler would lock onto the top lane and help their own top-laner fight against the great demon king. Their marksman would take a talent that had self-preservation ability and latch onto Yue Wenle. They would rely on Moonlits high level of skill to squeeze Ning Zhehan in the mid-lane. It wasnt that everyone looked down on Little Ning, but he was a newcomer who didnt yet have enough experience. Compared with the other FTW players, he was still a soft target to hit. Suppressing the mid-lane and forcing Wei Xiao to come and provide support meant that their top lane could relax slightly; they didnt dare to say that they could create a gap, but at least they wouldnt be shut down by Close. If they could resist Wei Xiaos gank, they would already have won half the game. On the off-chance that they could also kill off Yue Wenle in a solo fight, then FTW would collapse for sure! This had originally been RRs tactics for winning the championship. Now, it had been fully copied by Fu Li. How could they not be angry about it! What made it worse was that Fu Li had made up for their tactical defects. Taking advantage of the immortal cooperation between their mid-laner and their support, theyd strung up Bai Cai, restrained Wei Xiao, and left a free area for their bottom lane. Eurostar took over half of a jungle zone, and his farm was snowballing quickly. Adding on his personal skill level, there was really a good chance he could kill Yue Wenle! Although Yue Wenle had been the number one ADC in China last season, it was because FTW had won the national championship. When it came to a real fight in personal strength, nobody would back down to anyone else. When it came to who was first or not, they just had to fight to see! The second match was more worrying than the first. FTWs fans began to panic again. Thats not good The great demon king has been restrained, the mid-lane is getting hit hard, and in the bottom lane, Eurostar is gradually pressuring Yue Wenle FTW is at a complete disadvantage. What to do? What to do? If they cant find a breakthrough point, then TPT will just do it again in the next match. This isnt a matter of just losing a match, its going to be a big deal! Seriously, Ning Zhehans level even if FTW makes it to the globals, theres no way for him to fight against Xie He. There was an unprecedented silence in FTWs team chat. Bai Cai didnt speak anymore, and Wei Xiao didnt say anything. Lu Feng and Yue Wenle, who usually remained silent anyway, were even less likely to speak. The more their farm fell behind, the more the middle lane became completely blown apart. Finally, Little Ning couldnt hold back anymore, Brother Xiao What should they do? He was completely unable to fight against Fu Li and Du Yi. As soon as Wei Xiao came to help, Fu Li and Du Yi would immediately choose to avoid fighting. When Wei Xiao went to clear the jungle, they would begin to apply pressure again. The most painful part wasnt getting caught, but that they were completely unable to win against the other side in a 2v2. There was no strategy, no awareness. What was right in front of their faces was nothing but a gap in strength. CCCooperation was also a kind of strength. Wei Xiao stared at the farm panel. Brother Cai, go to the bottom lane. Bai Cai was shocked. This As soon as he left, Ning Zhehan would become thoroughly useless! Ning Zhehan had heard it clearly as well. He felt an icy cold chill run down his back. His fingers trembled slightly, and he lost a lane soldier. Wei Xiao noticed all of this, but There was no rebuilding something without breaking it first. This so-called bronze having an advantage against kings wasnt as simple as just talking about it. If he didnt have enough confidence, then everything was all in vain. While Brother Cai was hesitating, Lu Fengs voice rang out, Go to the bottom lane. Bai Cai gritted his teeth and said quietly, Little Ning, you hold on. I-Im going to first open up a gap in the bottom lane with Old Yue. This was all he could think of. Ning Zhehan tried to steady his voice, Okay. The audience noticed the moment Bai Cai left. What does this mean? Is FTW giving up on the spirit mage? With this useless mid-laner? They shouldve done that a long time ago. Thats no good, he was already a weakness, and now if they leave him alone, this match I thought FTW was strong, but it turned out that theyre still noobs. Noobs dont deserve to win, get lost and go home to raise pigs! Cant they change to a different mid-laner in the next season? Isnt FTW rich and generous? Is it so difficult to find a mature mid-laner? Yet you insisted on raising up a newcomer, hahaha. The scrolling comments talked and cursed and had already plotted out FTWs development route for the next two years. The fans mentalities collapsed. They didnt even have the energy to flame anyone. In FTWs team chat. Little Ning! Wei Xiao locked onto his blue daddy. When there was only a tiny bit of health left, he tossed it towards the side of the middle lane. Ning Zhehan was stunned for a moment, but his instincts moved faster than his brain, and the spirit mage had already tossed out a wooden thorn. He was startled when the blue buff landed on his body. I didnt it wasnt on purpose. The berserker thief needed the blue buff. Not only could it fill up his mana bar, it would also reduce his cooldowns. It was very important, but hed actually Wei Xiao: It was originally meant for you. Ning Zhehan: ! Wei Xiao used a movement skill to get to the middle lane tower and said, Do you believe in me? Ning Zhehans heart shook. Yes! Wei Xiao: Do you remember what I said to you before the game? Ning Zhehans heart filled with a wave of bitterness, and he couldnt speak. Wei Xiao spoke for him, Youre our trump card for restraining Fu Li. Ning Zhehan: But I Played so poorly and couldnt do anything at all. Wei Xiao: Listen to me, dont think about anything! As soon as his voice dropped, he rushed out of the grass and locked his scythe on Du Yi. Ning Zhehan hurriedly rushed over to keep up, his heart filled with panic, Brother Xiao Wei Xiao: Kill Fu Li! Everything happened very quickly. Wei Xiaos sudden appearance surprised Fu Li. Hed predicted where the berserker thiefs scythe would land and dodged it, but unexpectedly, Wei Xiao wasnt aiming at him. Instead, he locked in on Du Yi instead. This Fu Li frowned slightly. He was just about to attack the berserker thief when a magic vine rose up from the ground, latching onto him firmly. Fu Li: ! Ning Zhehan really didnt think about anything. He didnt think about who he was up against, didnt think about how it was the stage for the national finals, and he didnt think about what would happen if he lost. There were only the three words from Wei Xiao left in his head: Kill Fu Li! A full set of skills from the spirit mage landed on the immortal warlocks body. Fu Li couldnt move and was directly controlled until he died. The commentators voice was shrill, The spirit mages combo was very accurate and precise, and those controls were connected to the point where the immortal warlock had no way to fight back! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Silvery killed TPT.Auroral. Ning Zhehan had killed Fu Li! The entire scene broke out with fierce applause. It was for the spirit mage, for Ning Zhehan, and for this mid-laner newcomer king. Wei Xiao: What are you in a daze for? Come get your double kill. Fu Li was dead. How would Du Yi, as a holy priest, be able to flee? Ning Zhehans thoughts were still muddled as he rolled and attacked, taking down the pitiful holy priest who was trying his best to heal himself. Little Ning, whod been suppressed for an entire match, been overwhelmed until he couldnt breathe, and been pressured until his mentality had suffered a bloody collapseCC As soon as he was able to turn the tables, he was so happy that he wanted to turn on his mic and sing to the whole audience! Wei Xiao released a breath. No one noticed that there was a bit of sweat on his forehead and palms. This wave had been a bit tense. But if they didnt go for it, then how would they be able to unlock FTWs infinite potential! This wave of counter-killing in the mid-lane allowed FTW to snatch back their control over the rhythm of the game. Little Ning stopped cowering, and the spirit mage was no longer afraid. Fu Li and Du Yi could fight against Bai Cai and Ning Zhehan, but they were unable to beat Ning Zhehan and Wei Xiao. In this match, Wei Xiaos berserker thief didnt play like a jungler. Instead, it was more like a support. His scythe would hook to provide support, so that his teammate could solo kill the other side! His scythe hooked onto the c-positions; sorry, but youve run off too far. Every single hit landed; TPT collapsed like an avalanche. Victory. Ning Zhehan was still a little out of it after they won the second match. We won? Bai Cai felt like hed just gone through a roller coaster. We won. It was just f*cking outrageous, even having a wet dream wasnt so exciting! Chapter 211.1: They didnt want to lose! TPT were the ones who really felt like they were dreaming. They hadnt yet come back to their senses even after the game ended. Fu Lis face was as somber as still water. After taking off his headset, he headed straight for the backstage lounge. The commentators were analyzing the match just now and praising Ning Zhehan, saying that this newcomer king deserved his title, and that his overall ability was very high. It was outstanding for him to be able to play so brilliantly when competing on the stage of the finals for the first time. The audience were also misled by this analysis and believed that it was Ning Zhehan whod carried the game, suddenly figuring things out and beating up the godly calculator. However, Fu Li knew exactly who hed lost to. It wasnt Ning Zhehan, it was Wei Xiao. Ning Zhehan hadnt changed anything. What had changed was the person who had cooperated with him. In the first half of the match, Ning Zhehan and Bai Cai had been oppressed by Fu Li and Du Yi in the middle lane. Wei Xiao had come to provide support many times, but theyd failed to get any results. The main reason for this was that Fu Li had chosen to avoid fighting when faced with a 3v2 situation, and FTW also had no way to force him to fight. Wei Xiao couldnt remain in the middle lane the whole time. As long as he left, Fu Li and Du Yi would begin to mess with Ning Zhehan and Bai Cai again. This routine worked well in the first half of the game, until Bai Cai went to the bottom lane. 3v2 became 2v2. There was no need for Fu Li and Du Yi to hide, and if they could suppress Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan together, then TPTs win would become much easier to obtain. Unfortunately, Wei Xiao hadnt been playing cards based on common sense right from the start. He gave Ning Zhehan a blue buff, then used the berserker thief like a power thief when fighting, controlling Du Yi and giving Ning Zhehan and Fu Li a chance to solo. Reasonably speaking, Fu Li wouldnt lose to Ning Zhehan on his own. Whats more, he had the dominant position in farm, and the immortal warlock could easily kill the spirit mage. But everything had happened too suddenly. What Fu Li was most worried about was Wei Xiao, and in order to avoid the berserker thiefs scythe, hed sent himself right into Ning Zhehans control. The spirit mage had four skills and five strong controls (its passive ability meant that its general attacks could send its opponent flying). Once he was given the chance to attack first, then his squishy talent who had no purification could only wait for his death to approach. Once Fu Li died, Du Yi would have no way to retreat. Ning Zhehan, whod gotten a double kill, instantly caught up on most of the farm that hed fallen behind on during the early stage. At the same time, he started finding a feel for the game again. After that, FTWs mid-jungler linkage seemed to have been tailored against TPT. The inseparable spirit mage and berserker thief locked in on the immortal warlock and would show up wherever he was. If Fu Li ignored Wei Xiao and only attacked Ning Zhehan, then Wei Xiao would instantly let him know what a daddy berserker thief was; if Fu Li paid attention to Wei Xiao and avoided his attacks, then Wei Xiao would turn his attention to Du Yi and give Ning Zhehan the opportunity to fight. Any judgements he made were useless for Wei Xiao because he had no rules. What was more ridiculous was Ning Zhehan. He acted like hed been injected with chicken blood, and was filled with excited energy once hed gotten the double kill. He was completely different from the little newbie whod been timid and cowering at the start of the game, and his fierceness was like his body had been taken over by Xie He. Fu Li knew exactly where he failed, but the more clear it was, the more difficult it was for him to calm down. Hed never underestimated FTW and had never underestimated Wei Xiao. But obviously, hed still underestimated them. Hed underestimated Wei Xiaos great influence over the whole team and his teammates. What was even more terrible was that this influence took effect immediately and could be achieved easily, without any preparation. Beneath the stage, Yuan Ze tsked and tilted his head to say to Kim Sung-hyun, Little Lunatic Wei is really a treasure. Kim Sung-hyun glanced at him. Thats got nothing to do with you. Yuan Ze lowered his voice, I think that I could bend for him. Kim Sung-hyun sneered. It would be useless even if you bent yourself into a mosquito coil. That guy already had a sweetheart, and they were super sticky together. Yuan Ze sighed. Forget it, as a big brother, I wont snatch people away from my little brother. Kim Sung-hyun disdained him: Can you even snatch him away? You damned straight man who only knows how to run your mouth! They were naturally able to understand that the key to winning this game was Wei Xiao, and they could see even more from this game than Fu Li, whod been involved in the game. This determination, this execution, and this amazing compatibility. Those were all talents. They were a kind of talent that was quite different from micro-operations, game awareness, strength, and so on. This kind of ability could only be described as something that could only be encountered by luck but couldnt be sought. Even the few whod reached the peak of Glory had only ever seen this kind of unreasonable compatibility in Yan Jiang. And Wei Xiao was different from Yan Jiang. He was filled with energy and brilliance. If what Yan Jiang gave to his team was indispensable air, then what Wei Xiao gave them was dazzling light. They were equally untouchable, equally silent, and equally important, but the feeling was quite different. One was invisible, while the other was eye-catching and warmed the heart. Kim Sung-hyun looked at Yan Jiang out of the corner of his eye. Under the bright lights, his black eyes were calm, but those who were familiar with him knew that cold flames were burning within. It was battle intent. It was the desire to fight against someone of equal strength. Who wouldnt want to? Kim Sung-hyun shifted his gaze away and stared at the empty seats on the screen. Who wouldnt want to defeat such a genius? Who wouldnt want to win the crown after fighting a good game? In the backstage lounge, FTWs four little ones egos gradually puffed up. Little Ning: Its 2:0! Brother Cai: Hold steady, hold steady, next up is the match point. Yue Wenle was the most straightforward. I want to do 3:0. Brother Cai was shocked. You He hadnt yet finished his words when Wei Xiao interjected, What are you thinking When Bai Cai first heard these four words, he wondered what was going on with Little Lunatic Wei. Had his personality changed? Had he become a person and learned to be cautious and low-key? Then, he heard Wei Xiao finish, Be a bit more confident, get rid of the want. Well definitely win the championship with a 3:0! Bai Cai: Like hell hed changed his personality. Like hell he was becoming a person. Being cautious and low-key wasnt even in Wei Xiaos dictionary! Chen Feng attacked them. TPTs sure to go all out in the next match. Calm down a bit. Everyone sat down and made use of this time to talk about countermeasures. It was quieter on the TPT side. Zhuang Ruishi wanted to speak, but he swallowed his words back down again after looking at the silent Fu Li and Eurostar. TPT had never experienced a downturn in the past two seasons. In fact, their path had been very difficult: from being looked down on by everyone, to gradually making achievements; from a chaotic team, to gradually becoming organized; from having no tactics, to their present routine kaleidoscope There was no glory without hardships. Downturns, confusion, hesitation Theyd all gone through it, but it hadnt been like this time In the first match, their four protecting one system had lost. In the second match, Fu Li had lost. The frustration they felt was exacerbated by the fact that it was the national finals. The championship was within reach, the future was right in front of their eyes, but they were going to miss it by just a narrow margin. How could they be willing! They didnt want to lose, and they couldnt lose. They didnt want to give up this opportunity that was hovering by so close. Effort, hard work, and countless sweat and tears had sent them to this stage. How could they be willing to lose! TPTs lounge was filled with a heavy atmosphere that also affected everyones hearts. Eurostar pressed his lips together. Captain Fu Li: Yes. Eurostar: I want to use the gold hunter in the next game. This implied that he wanted to try the four protecting one system again and get even for that first game hed lost, making up for his mistakes and obtaining a point for the team. Fu Li didnt say yes. Eurostars heart sank. I Fu Li shook his head and said, Ill take the zither warlock. Eurostar sucked in a short breath. Zhuang Ruishi, Du Yi, and Wei Ji all looked at Fu Li. Fu Li lifted his head and looked at them. Hand it to me. He had a low voice that held miraculous soothing power. A sense of enthusiasm filled the whole TPT lounge. From the coach to the players, from the starters to the substitute, they all trusted Fu Li. There would be no TPT without him. Without him, they wouldnt be at the stage for the finals now. Trust, dependence. Fu Li was able to twist TPT into a rope, cast it into an invincible steel blade! Everyone in TPT was now fully revved up. The bell signaling the end of their break rang. Fu Li stood up, In this match, everyone do what you do best. Eurostar followed behind him. When he was about to step out of the darkness onto the dazzling stage, he called out to Fu Li in a low voice. Fu Lis steps paused slightly. He turned back to him and spoke through the passionate, heated music, Its okay. Im here. The light hit him, extending his shadow until he looked like a giant. A giant who had lifted up TPT, led TPT forward, and guarded TPT. Let loose and fight. Even if this was their last game, they had to fight to the end! Match point. Both sides momentum soared like the rainbow. FTW was obviously in excellent form and couldnt wait to win the competition with a bang. TPT had lost two games in a row and were now at the thrilling match point, but theyd adjusted their state and looked like they had the confidence to win. BP ended. Everyone was in a daze when they saw TPTs line-up. Fu Li took the zither warlock. TPT was really letting loose and going for it this time. The zither warlock was a mid-laner hero who had support tendencies, and some people might even use her to play support directly. Fu Li had taken the zither warlock for one sole purposeCCto coordinate the overall situation. This wasnt a four protecting one routine, and they werent betting on Eurostar. Instead, they were going to bloom everywhere. The berserker warrior in the top-lane, the berserker thief in the jungle, the magic launcher marksman. Three positions, and they were all carry talents. They could fight, resist and control, and could also burst out in the opponents face. The three of them were all cores! They took the giant shaman as support. After adding Fu Lis zither warlock into the picture, TPTs intentions were clear even before the competition began. They would fight hard to the end. They wanted all three lanes! Chapter 211.2: Everyone rush over! FTW could also sense TPTs lethal aura. Bai Cai: This game wont be easy. Little Ning was still immersed in his high. I can beat a zither warlock! Brother Cai: The zither warlock wont give you a chance to fight! This wasnt like an immortal warlock. It was a support type mid-laner, and its DPS was unimportant. The important thing was its functionality, in this match, the zither warlocks real battle opponent was actually Brother Cai. Little Ning: Oh Wei Xiao: Old Bai, you come with me. Bai Cai: ! Wei Xiao: Lighting fires everywhere is our specialty. TPT wanted to mess with the rhythm of the game, but what FTW didnt lack the most was rhythm. Come on, it was the third match. Theyd show the audience what it meant to fight a bloody battle the whole way without looking back. Bai Cai instantly filled with heroic spirit. Okay! Yue Wenle muttered darkly, You must feel very aggrieved following me, right. Bai Cai: How can a home grown flower be as fragrant as a wild flower. Wei Xiao laughed and cursed, Whos a f*cking wild flower. Bai Cai: The jungler kings flower. Wei Xiao: Get lost! Only after running his mouth did Brother Cai think of the great demon king. His skin tensed, and he shut up. Lu Feng had taken the blood warrior in this game. This talents fighting ability was about equal to that of the berserker warrior. After playing two matches in a row, Wei Jis fierceness had been triggered. At the end of the day, he was also a professional player, and he had his own personal strength. Hed been hammered in the past two games, but he hadnt collapsed. Instead, hed found his courage and was already able to resist Close somewhat. Of course, there was also the fact that the berserker warriors first and second skills were a bit stronger than the blood warriors. Wei Xiao had taken the immortal thief. This was the top-jungler combination that theyd tried and tested, and it was used to target Eurostar. When Fu Li had first taken the zither warlock, Chen Feng had thought that they wanted to do the four protecting one system. The most disgusting point about this system was that it was too difficult to break in and cut down the marksman. In the first match, the hidden thief was weak in the later stages, and although the death knight had enough DPS, as long as it was blocked from approaching, it would be difficult for it to reach Eurostar. That was why theyd needed to sacrifice the two of them to take down a single person. The immortal thief and blood warrior were different. Of the two, one of them had a high damage reduction effect, and the other had an ultimate move that made them immune to all damage. They were very suitable for trading in their lives for one from the other side. If TPT tried their four protecting one system again, then FTW would be able to teach them a good lesson. Although TPT hadnt gone for the four protecting one system, the immortal thief and blood warrior werent weak talents, either. They were enough to deal with the berserker thief and berserker warrior. Wei Xiao sensed that TPT would start making trouble right from the start of the game, so hed called Brother Cai to his side early. He was ready to provide support at any time. But he was still a bit too slow. The jungler position had its own jungle clearing rhythm. The jungle creeps wouldnt refresh if they werent killed as soon as possible. Even delaying the rhythm for ten seconds would drag down the teams overall resources. This was especially the case for the first round of jungle clearing. It had to be taken, and they had to control it well. Wei Xiaos jungle clearing speed was already very fast. But unfortunately, it couldnt be as quick as a wave of lane soldiers in the mid-lane no matter how fast he was. After finishing off the mid-lane soldiers in a flash, the zither warlock headed straight for the bottom lane. Little Ning sent out a warning, The zither warlock is heading towards the bottom lane! Wei Xiao: Old Bai, give some vision. It was unknown if he was going to the bottom lane or the bottom jungle zone. Bai Cai moved very quickly and was already probing for the zither warlocks figure. However, Fu Li had already guessed his actions. He hadnt been able to predict Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehans fighting in the last game, but it was easy for him to see the trend of Bai Cais actions in this game. He had seemingly headed to the bottom lane, but in fact hed gone back to his own jungle zone to help his jungler finish clearing the buff creeps before leading his jungler and support back to the mid-lane. Brother Cai wondered out loud, Theres no one Wei Xiaos heart clenched. Little Ning! But it was too late. The movement ability of the fire mage in the mid-lane was limited. He wanted to use flash, but he was already held down by the zither warlocks zither ring. This was the zither warlocks core skill and one of Glorys strongest control skills. What kind of damage could the berserker thief deal in the early stages? His scythe shot out and cut through the air, sending the fire mage home with a few attacks. Little Ning sucked in a breath of air. How sinister! More sinister things were yet to come. The zither warlock was similar to the medicine warlock and was a talent that could both heal and deal DPS. When it changed chords, it was equivalent to changing to a different talent. Whats more, one of its skills increased its movement speed. A zither warlock that was played well could lead their teammates along like a tornado, leaving behind a place where even grass wouldnt be able to survive. Fu Li obviously had this ability. By the time Wei Xiao started providing support, the zither warlock had already stirred up a storm in the canyon. This really wasnt because Wei Xiaos rhythm couldnt keep up, but that Fu Lis overall planning ability was too strong. With regards to FTW, Wei Xiao, and even Wei Xiao and Bai Cais cooperation, Fu Li had studied it for countless days and nights. He could see through it, feel through it, and think through it. It wasnt like the surprise from the last game. Once Bai Cai and Wei Xiao fell into their standard mode of playing, they seemed to be entangled by this prophet. Every step was difficult, and it was very clear that they were being plotted against. Brother Cais scalp was numb. This godly calculator hes really very gifted. Wei Xiaos voice was deep, How is that any sort of gift? Its just having done enough homework. In order to understand them to this level, Wei Xiao suspected that Fu Li had even gone through the training camp videos of him and Bai Cai double queueing from two years ago, What the hell was this? Calling him the roundworm in their stomachs was already a polite description! Not only were Wei Xiao and Brother Cai grumpy, Yue Wenle in the bottom lane was even grumpier. If there was a chat channel in the official games, then Yue Wenle would definitely curse out Eurostar until he was a bloody dog head. Who cared if they were in the national finals? Who cared if they were under national scrutiny? President Le now wanted to start up his heated cursing mode! Why did he call himself Eurostar? He should just call himself Euro-bun instead, at least then hed be edible! In the bottom lane, Yue Wenle had taken the storm hunter while Eurostar had taken the magic launcher. One of them was flexible, while the other had a long range. Reasonably speaking, Yue Wenle should have been able to suppress Eurostar and beat him up. However, Eurostar was really worthy of being the founder of the cowardly baby movement. He was very steady in ensuring his own survival. It was bad enough that he didnt show himself; he also managed to not lose any of his lane soldiers, either. What was the highest level of a cowardly baby? Cowering under the tower to kill soldiers, but the lane soldiers were still f*cking unable to deal any damage to the tower or the lane. He was able to constantly maintain his farm at the same level as Yue Wenles. Even without mentioning President Le, even the audience was convinced of his skill. From a certain point of view, Eurostar was also a gifted player. An immortal ADC that was rare even across the whole world. Under the stage, Kim Sung-hyun rubbed at his forehead. Yuan Ze: I was wrong to blame you. Kim Sung-hyun: Yuan Ze: You couldnt have trained up such a cute apprentice. FTWs former members were all hardcore players. For example, for Proud Flower Kim what was cowering? They didnt even know how to spell that word out! However, Y1s marksman was a bit like Eurostar. It was no wonder that Yan Jiang had favored him. This kind of cooperation had a very strong level of adaptability. This once again became a very passive game. Theyd been mentally prepared for this a long time ago, but having their plays predicted by Fu Li so accurately and so often really made frustration accumulate in their hearts. Little Ning wasnt nervous anymore. Anger was the best panacea to control tension; once anger rose up, he wouldnt be flustered anymore. He just wanted to take the other side down with him! The audience didnt dare to blink when watching this match. As long as they looked away for a little bit, they might miss some part of this wonderful collection of moves. No one dared to get distracted. After 20 minutes of tearing into each other, FTW gradually calmed down. They couldnt continue on like this. TPT was having too easy of a time with their guerrilla warfare. If they continued getting nibbled away by them like this, FTW would unwittingly lose the match. They didnt want to lose! Theyd already won to this point. They didnt want to lose even a small match! Who would want to win 3:1 if they could win 3:0? It would be even more difficult to regain their momentum after a momentary setback. This truth was written in the military books. If they ended up letting TPT get three wins after their two point lead, FTW would likely hang themselves outside TPTs base. Lu Feng, whod maintained his calm despite his teams impetuousness, spoke up. Dragon. His cold and clear voice shook up their boiling hot mood like ice. Wei Xiao inhaled lightly. Okay! After that, he called Old Yue over and engaged the golden dragon. There were two dragons in the canyon, one gold and one silver. Killing the gold dragon would increase experience and farm, and it would also strengthen the soldier lanes. Killing the silver dragon would give the team a high stat bonus, increasing their attack, defense, and even health recovery ability. Taking the golden dragon was a good choice for getting things done, while the silver dragon was suited for team fights. FTW chose the golden dragon because Wei Xiao just happened to be in the bottom jungle and it was just more efficient. The golden dragons health had dropped by a third when the alarm bell in Wei Xiaos heart rang out loudly. Are they working on the silver dragon? Thered been no hint of movement from the other side for so long that this was the only possibility. At the same time, Lu Feng had snuck his way over to the silver dragon. The half a second of vision he used revealed traces of TPT. They were really fighting with the silver dragon! What should they do? Would both sides trade dragons? In fact, FTW wouldnt be making a loss if they traded the golden dragon for the silver dragon. But Lu Feng: Bai Cai, use speed surge. Everyone rush over. By this time, their golden dragon had been reduced to half health. Theyd be able to finish it off with a bit more effort. But if they gave up on attacking it, the half health theyd taken down would all be in vain! However, FTW didnt hesitate at all. They abandoned the dragon and used speed surge. The entire team moved like a gust of wind, rushing straight across the river to the silver dragon pit. Ning Zhehan still had his teleportation ready. He pressed the skill directly and teleported over. Deep in the dragon pit, there was no way to retreat. A bloody battle between ten players was imminent! Chapter 212.1: Mutual trust and mutual achievements. Chapter 212 Watching it from gods perspective was even more exciting. The commentators spoke very quickly. Their mastery over their role was so good that they could even enact emotions like surprise, apprehension, and dismay on command. TPT had started on the silver dragon, while FTW attacked the golden dragon. At first, everyone felt that both teams would each take an ancient creature and that matters would pass by quietly because they couldnt afford to fight. Unexpectedly, the great demon king didnt pause at all and went to scope out the silver dragon while his own teammates were playing with the golden dragonCC What are they going to do? Is Close going to snatch the dragon! No way, all five of TPTs players are there. Hell be dead as soon as he goes in. What if theres a miracle? Its not possible! What kind of experience does Close have? Would he make such a low-level mistake? And FTW isnt weak to the point where they have to bet on luck. This so-called snatching the dragon was to stalk in from a good position when the enemy was attacking the dragon. When the ancient creatures health was almost emptied out, they would go and snatch away the last hit. If they succeeded, all the benefits from the ancient creature would go to them. Dragon snatching happened frequently in Glory. It required skill, but it was more based on luck. A single stroke may turn a bicycle into a motorcycle or a bicycle into a unicycle. This wasnt a necessary move unless things had already reached a critical point. So, was Close really going to snatch the dragon? The commentators could see more out of the situation. Could it be that FTW is already prepared to lay siege to the silver dragon pit? The golden dragon is already at half health, giving it up would be a pity. The silver dragons health is dropping faster than the golden dragon. If TPT takes the silver dragon before FTW arrives Even before they finished speaking, they saw the three people from FTW use their acceleration buff and rush to the silver dragon pit like a whirlwind. Theyd really given up the dragon to come fight! Were they so determined?! What countless people wondered about wasCCwho had given this order? Was it the great demon king or Little Lunatic Wei? How ruthless! What made peoples blood boil even more was that the blood warrior summoned its illusions and charged into the silver dragon pit one step before they arrived. F*ck! Its really one against five! Like hell its one against five, his teammates will be there in at most two seconds, oh, wait, theyll make it there in one second! But Close is going to die as long as he goes in What do you mean, die? Havent you played the blood warrior before? His ultimate move gives him invincibility. Thats right, the blood warriors ultimate move, Blood Demons Awakening: he would enter a bloodthirsty state where he couldnt be attacked and was immune to all damage for up to two seconds. Lu Feng hadnt rushed in impulsively. Hed used his illusions to confuse TPTs vision, then aimed his blood stab at Fu Lis face. By the time TPT reacted and used their skills, he instantly started up Awakening and gave himself immunity from all damage. What a wonderful first attack! A perfect start to the team fight, clearing out a round of enemy skills so that his teammates could seize the advantage when they arrived. The teleport skill was a bit faster than the acceleration buff. Ning Zhehan landed first, and the fire mage was a good fit for this kind of stationary team fight. Hed be able to hit people even if he just tossed out skills with his eyes closed. Of course, professional players wouldnt throw out skills with their eyes closed; theyd pursue the best way to stack up the most damage. Ning Zhehan tossed over a string of fireballs. The special effects landed on the grass, and there was a visual sense that the silver dragon pit had been set on fire! TPT fought back hard. When faced with Lu Fengs charge and Ning Zhehans high DPS, they quickly shifted to avoid damage and found the best position from which to return fire. When the other three members of FTW arrived, the ten of them instantly engaged. The director simply zoomed out to give an overall view of the situation, displaying the entire silver dragon pit on the stage. The audience opened their eyes wide and leaned forward, and the back row only wished they could stand up to see more clearly. There was shouting and yelling, and everyones faces were flushed. It was as though what was happening on the stage wasnt a competition, but a real battleground. The players who were fighting against each other were like their own respective gods of war. One man was in charge of guarding the pass against thousands of people! The immortal thiefs ten thousand swords fell from the sky as the berserker thiefs scythe spread death everywhere. The zither warlocks notes broke through arrays, and the magic launcher aimed and fired like mad as the storm hunter stepped on raindrops and flew up high The ten people all played to the extreme, and the group battle that lasted only dozens of seconds seemed to be playing in slow motion. It felt both long and short. Slow, yet quick. Everyones hearts had leapt up to their throats as they quietly waited for the results. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Silvery killed the silver dragon! Ning Zhehan was the one to kill the silver dragon! F*ck! The silver dragon is FTWs! Ning Zhehans beam of fire shot through the dragon pit and snatched up the silver dragons last hit! Regardless of who had been the one to deal damage to the ancient creature, the system only cared about who dealt the last hit! Silvery means silver. This kids granny gray hair wasnt dyed in vain! Damn, Laozi wants to dye my hair too. Does dying your hair blonde mean you can get the golden dragon and dying your hair silver mean you can snatch the silver dragon?! The scrolling comments were going crazy, and the audience at the scene had also blown up. Although Eurostar had shot Ning Zhehan to death after he stole the silver dragon, it was still worth it. FTW gained the benefits from killing the silver dragon. Their HP, defense, and attack speed all gained a boost. This data was invisible to the naked eye, but the overall strength of the team increased. Their farm had originally still been behind TPTs, but they could now catch up and might even secretly surpass them. The dragon pit exploded. Never mind how fiercely the berserker warrior was attacking, or how the zither warlocks chords seemed to summon clouds and rain, or how explosive the magic launchers DPS was The storm hunter flew everywhere, there was an immortal thief who never touched the ground, and Bai Cai, who was busy healing The three little ones from FTW took down the five people from TPT! The fight over the silver dragon came to a fierce ending. Finally, only Yue Wenle and Wei Xiao remained standing. The two of them were both seriously injured, their lives hanging on by just a thread. The river was full of corpses, and TPT had been wiped out! Too wonderful! The audience applauded even as they screamed shrilly, and the scrolling comments in the live broadcast covered the screen, all of them blowing rainbow farts. No matter whose fans they were, they really had to praise this wonderful group fight as much as they could. The clip of the year had shown up in the national finals. It was too cool! The fierce group fight ended, but the game wasnt over. TPT had controlled their defensive towers and soldier lanes well in the early stages. Wei Xiao and Yue Wenle didnt waste any time as they pushed towers like crazy. They broke down two consecutive towers in the mid-lane before TPT started to resurrect. They then went to clear out the other sides jungle, thoroughly clearing up TPTs jungle zone before quickly retreating. The director gave a timely shot of the farm panel. The farm panel that had originally been dominated by TPT was now completely overtaken by FTW, and the sharp drop and subsequent ascent of the curved charts made peoples breaths catch. If this was the stock market, this kind of rise and fall would be enough to make people go crazy. After both sides resurrected, the game progressed at a relatively slow pace. The audience also had time to drink some water, catch their breath, and relax. It was too exciting. No matter who won or lost, todays matches were wonderful enough to be included in Glorys history of the China competition zone. If you ask, then it was BADASS in capital letters! It was too damned badass! This wave of group fighting had turned the tables. FTWs side had naturally played magnificently, and they clearly wished they could rush all the way to the crystal and end the game. FTW had undergone amazing growth without anyone noticing. Those who understood this team would see where the growth had been by listening to the team chat after the game. Chen Feng wasnt biting his nails under the stage anymore, but Tang Chen knew that he was more nervous than anyone else, more nervous than the 30,000 people at the scene. He was the one who understood FTW the best. He understood Close the most, and was also the one who understood the team best. Whether it was that point three years ago, the three years prior, or now, three years later, hed seen it all. He thought about this team every day and every night, thinking about these players, and thinking about every duel in the canyon. He wasnt on the battlefield, but he was the one who kept thinking about it the most. He could see the growth of his players even without listening to the teams voice chat. It was invisible, but significant. FTW, which had been like a heap of scattered sand, was now coming together again as a group! There was Quiet during a downturn in the game. And there was Close when they were excited and over confident. Ning Zhehan, Yue Wenle, and Bai Cai had absolute trust in them. And Close finally trusted them. What was a team, what made a team? It wasnt unilateral dependence, and it wasnt one-sided trust. It was mutual trust and mutual achievements. After three years No, five including the two years with the Team of Gods. FTW was finally a team! The game wasnt yet over, but Chen Fengs eyes had started to burn. He breathed in lightly and continued to stare at the Glory Canyon. After a short period of calm, Wei Xiao began to look for opportunities again. After FTW seized the initiative, it was no longer as easy for TPT to avoid fights. A gap appeared in their previous guerrilla operations due to their collapse in the dragon pit, and they required more time to get back their previous rhythm. Would FTW give them that time? Wei Xiao wouldnt! After suppressing vision in the bottom jungle zone, Wei Xiao went to gank Eurostar, who was clearing his lane soldiers at the second tower. At this time, TPT was scattered across the three lanes, and Eurostar, who only had an earth shaman for protection, wasnt safe from an attack. Fu Li immediately ordered, Retreat! Chapter 212.2: The Team of Gods was gone. But FTW had been reborn! At this time, Bai Cai had already arrived at the earth shamans position. If Eurostar retreated, the earth shaman would be able to get away, but they would have to give up their bottom lanes second tower. Eurostar, who always followed Fu Lis plan, who never disobeyed his orders over countless games, paused for a moment. It was only a fraction of a second, and it was a pause that couldnt be felt, but Fu Li noticed it. Eurostar didnt retreat. He launched an attack, and all of his DPS landed on Bai Cai, who was within his range. Bai Cai was shocked. Fierce. Wei Xiao brushed out a combo and went straight for the earth shaman. Thats more like it. Eurostar gathered up his fortress cannon as he spoke, firing shot after shot that went past Bai Cai towards Wei Xiao. This was an advanced operation for the magic launcher. Most professional players could do it, but the control of the angle depended on timing and technique, so it didnt always result in a strong enough effect. Eurostar didnt step back at all. He was just as calm as before as he hit Bai Cai at an oblique angle and aimed all his damage at the immortal thief! Wei Xiaos health dropped down by a quarter after taking two shots. Bai Cai: Not good, I cant hold up! At the end of the day, he wasnt in full defensive gear, and his limited healing wasnt enough to hold up against the launchers late stage explosive damage. System AnnouncementCC TPT.Star killed FTW.White! In a 2v2 head on situation against Wei Xiao, Eurostar had killed Bai Cai and forced Wei Xiao to retreat! It was true that he had a defensive tower behind him that was in a precarious situation, but it was amazing that he was able to play out such a result. It had to be known that a late stage immortal thief, especially one at Wei Xiaos level, could send him off with a goodbye with just one wave of ten thousand swords in the sky. Is this the Euro-coward that I know? My little coward, whats the matter? Blink if someone has transmigrated into your body! Ahhhhh, Euro God is so handsome! He really deserves his reputation as the China competition zones number one ADC! Thats excessive, what do you mean, number one ADC? Are you pretending President Le doesnt exist? The fans were noisy and cajoling, but Fu Li in the field was in a trance for once. TPT had been stretched to the limit ever since they were wiped out in the dragon pit. The team chat that was originally already quiet now only contained Fu Lis cold instructions. The other four from TPT implemented them silently and meticulously, the atmosphere tense. They were all holding their breath, all eager to get back their control over the rhythm. They all wanted to win the game. But their situation grew more and more passive. FTW, who had snatched up the initiative, was totally unreasonable! Fu Li had given out an early warning when Wei Xiao and Bai Cai went to attack Eurostar. If Eurostar avoided a fight, it would have no effect on either side; if Eurostar fought, then there was a 70% chance that TPT would suffer two casualties. But Eurostar had held onto that 30% and played out a different result. Hed killed Bai Cai and made Wei Xiao retreat. Hed snatched up a respite for TPT! Although Brother Cai fell, he wasnt flustered inside. It feels like Eurostars on the rise. This was a bit of a pun, but Wei Xiao understood. Wei Xiao: Thats a good thing. Dependence would eventually lead to blind obedience. TPTs team chat was still silent, but theyd found their rhythm again! This game was clearly not a four protecting one line-up, but Eurostar had still proven his value as a core with his own strength. TPT is great in this game. Theyre switching between line-ups at will. The magic launcher was actually able to deal such explosive damage. Eurostars personal strength cannot be underestimated. Their teamwork is also excellent! Zhuang Ruishi has grasped the essence of the berserker thief. There are similarities with Wei Xiao from the last game. Yes, yes, yes, hes using a core jungler talent like a support. In the previous match, Wei Xiao had used the berserker thief to cooperate with Ning Zhehan and tear apart TPT. Zhuang Ruishis berserker thief served the same function in this game. He used the scythe to lock in on players, and then left the rest to Eurostar. And Eurostar really did have this ability to kill the other side! TPT was back! From an advantage to a disadvantage and back to an advantage! The trend of their farm was really like a roller coaster. It went up and down, like an ECG. The audience was also holding their breath out of fear that the situation would tip again if their movements were any bigger. The third match started to resemble the first. Eurostar, who was surrounded by his team, became a kill harvester who killed wherever he went. Lane soldiers, jungle creeps, human heads, and even ancient creatures; he collected them all with one cannon after another. It was another four protecting one line-up, another TPT bulldozer match, another rising ADC. What should they do? FTW had taken the storm hunter in this game. The storm hunter could never be played as a four protecting one line-up. As a flexible marksman, the storm hunter was more like an assassin who was good at moving around alone and wasnt suitable for moving with a group. In this situation where it hadnt been easy for them to find a gap, were they going to be blocked to death by TPT? Lu Feng: Leave Eurostar to me. Wei Xiao: Okay! This time, there was no need to trade two for one, and there was no need for the hidden thief to die, followed by the death knight. This time, just one blood warrior was enough! Nearly 40 minutes into the game, the two teams who collided head-on knew that this was the last round of fighting. If FTW won, then the national finals were over. If TPT won, then they would have a chance to keep fighting. This was the match point, and this was the final battle! Commentator: Close is going around the back! Ning Zhehan is dealing ranged damage, while Yue Wenle is pulling away. Wei Xiao is waiting for an opportunity, and Close is keeping an eye on Eurostar. FTW is fighting fiercely in this round! TPT was fighting hard to protect Eurostar. Eurostar had stretched his nerves to the limit and was paying attention to any hint of movement in the air and grass. He knew that his situation was more dangerous in this game, and that it would be much easier for FTW to cut him down compared with the first match. But he had no more chances left. He had to fight. Hed disobeyed Fu Lis instructions and had made his own choice. He see it through all the way to the end! He wanted to win. He wanted to tell Fu Li The blood warrior is attacking! The commentary and the scene were completely synchronized, super fast speech accompanied by special effects as the scuffle that broke out in the canyon made everyones scalps feel numb. Illusion, bloody strike. Just before the zither warlocks forced control landed, there came the skill: Blood Demons Awakening! The blood warrior who could no longer be targeted had neared Eurostar. Eurostar felt a chill at his back. It was clearly taking place on the other side of a screen, but he could smell the scent of blood. Fight. Fu Lis deep voice rang in his ear. Eurostar came back to his senses and found that all of the zither warlocks heals were concentrated on him. His health bar rose and fell even as damage rained down on him. Eurostar didnt think about anything. He couldnt see anything, and he couldnt spare any attention to care about anything! He wanted to fight the blood warrior, he wanted to survive, and he wanted to lead TPT to win this game! The blood warrior fell! Close had been killed! Did TPT have a chance to turn things around? No Resurrection armor kicked in, and Close made use of the phantoms shadow to launch a blood cut, taking away Eurostars life. Eurostar also had resurrection armor, but the two seconds it took to resurrect was too long for him. The other four from FTW had already rushed forward with flame bombs and rain arrows as the immortal thief broke through their defenses, and finally launched ten thousand swords in the sky The aftermath of this explosive damage was enough to topple the seriously injured Eurostar and prevent him from getting back up again. System AnnouncementCC TPT.Star killed FTW.Close. FTW.Quiet killed TPT.Star. FTW.Quiet killed TPT.Du. FTW. Quiet killed TPT.Rock. FTW.Quiet killed TPT.Jili. FTW.Quiet killed TPT.Auroral! FTW.Quiet pentakill! The entire audience stood up, applause filling up the skies. The waves of sound from the 30,000 people in the audience grew louder each time, resounding through the sky! Trading one for five. FTW won the game. 2021s national champion had been crowned! The competition was over. This glorious 3-0 record showed the awakening of the kings of the China competition zone. The Team of Gods was gone. But FTW had been reborn! After taking off his headphones, Wei Xiao pounced into Lu Fengs arms and hugged him tight. Bai Cai leaned over excitedly to join the hug, while Yue Wenle was left in a daze he couldnt recover from. Ning Zhehan burst out into tears. Chen Feng and Tang Chen strode over with large strides and hugged the five people on the stage. The lights lit up, bright and shining. The five players from FTW were bathed in glory! On the other side, TPT remained in a daze in their seats. Eurostars face was pale, big tears rolling down one by one. His voice was choked, Sorry. To his left, Fu Li took off his headphones and reached out to rub the top of his hair. Eurostars tears flowed even more fiercely. Sorry, I didnt listen to you. Fu Li leaned back in the e-sports chair. You did a great job. Eurostars back stiffened, his eyes opening wide. The corner of Fu Lis lips pulled down, and he spoke in a low voice, Im not the only person in TPT The venue was noisy, and the stage was bustling, but the five people in TPT all heard his voice. Du Yi reached out an arm and embraced him. Zhuang Ruishi and Wei Ji also got up to move closer. The five people gathered together. Fu Lis voice was a little hoarse as he finished his words, TPT also has you guys. TPT wasnt only Fu Li. There were also Eurostar, Du Yi, Zhuang Ruishi, and Wei Ji! Next season The five spoke in unison, Well work hard together! Chapter 213.1: Crazy and arrogant! The screen started to show a replay of highlight clips from the match just now. The first wave of fighting in the dragon pit and then charging in, encircling their opponents and counter attackingthere were only a short few minutes of clips that had been selected from the game, but it was still able to make peoples blood boil. Too exciting! When Ning Zhehan assaulted the dragon pit and snatched the silver dragon, the audience once again burst into fierce applause. The second clip was of the final group battle, where the ten players met face to face to fight for victory. TPT, who concentrated their efforts on protecting Eurostar, Close, who rushed into the enemys midst on his own, and the four little ones who charged at TPT like madmen after their captain died in battle. Dazzling special effects, explosive combos, and the pentakill that Quiet seized with his violent DPS! A pentakill on the stage of the grand finals! A pentakill that determined the final outcome of the game! Not only had FTW.Quiet gotten an unparalleled pentakill, hed also lit up the entire venue with a dazzling light. Like the scorching sun shining in the sky, showing infinite glory! When these words appeared powerfully on the screen, everyone shouted outCC For The Win! FTW was amazing! Fans were immersed in the revelry celebrating the rise of the new champion, but professional players seated at the front row were quietCC 3U and RR had all come to watch the game. Asleep and Moonlit watched as FTW bathed in glory, their black eyes burning. Cong Yi was a little more restrained, but his back was straighter than usual. Mo Hui cursed, If Laozi wasnt out of money, I would definitely do a million dollar draw to suppress my shock. They were really strong. There was no need to mention FTW, but TPT was inhuman, too. When faced with such a TPT, FTW was actually able to beat them with a 3:0 score. It made them even more f*cking inhuman! There were waves surging beneath the quiet, waves of boundless expectation for the next season. The director started to act randomly again, panning the camera across the crowd to show the Team of Gods. The fans, who were already exuberant in the live broadcast room, burst out into even more excitement. Did you see? Our FTW won the championship 3:0! FTW is still a big daddy even without you guys! Go die, Bastard Yan, this years global championship will be from China! The camera panned over and moved away in a flash, but the mood of the people in the Team of Gods was far from the calm that showed on the surface. Even if theyd been abroad, theyd watched all of Lu Fengs games over the past three yearsCC In how many games had his teammates all died, leaving Close to support everything on his own? How many times had Close turned the tide on his own and remained standing until the end? And how many times had Close fought alone and forcibly turned a 5v5 game into a 1v5? Finally, FTW didnt only have Lu Feng. Finally, the lone hero was no longer lonely. The two peak duels from the last matchCCthe dragon pit and the last pentakillCChad both been initiated by Lu Feng. In the dragon pit fight, hed exchanged his own life because he believed that his teammates would arrive immediately afterwards, because he knew that his teammates would help him get revenge if he fell in the dragon pit. In the last wave, he gave up his life in exchange for another life, forcing out Eurostars resurrection armor. A ten person group fight. The first one to fall was the great demon king. This was something that nobody wouldve dared think about in the past. But now, it had happened. A natural sacrifice, entrusting the rest to those behind him. His teammates were worth it! Close split apart the night sky, while Quiet was the scorching fire. FTWs future was promising! Some maybe felt it more than others, but Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He, and even Yuan Ze all held a bit of envy at the bottom of their gazes. It was unclear who they envied. Did they envy Close, who had someone to sacrifice for? Or did they envy the person who Close was willing to sacrifice himself for? Nobody knew. Not even themselves. The championship cup for each competition zone was silver. Only the global championship trophy was a golden cup. The silver cup was already a symbol of glory. When the five from FTW held up the cup, the scene was captured on camera and symbolized the birth of a miracle. Since it was the stage of the national finals, they naturally had to have a proper interview with the championship team. According to their positions the first to be interviewed was Yue Wenle. Comrade Old Yue was still in a daze, and it took him a long time to come up with a phrase, Won the championship The host took a look at this fellow who could rival God Sleep and quickly spoke some words in order to wrap things up and move on to the next person. The second person was Brother Cai. As a socialite of Glory, Brother Cais had an amazing amount of social aptitude, but he was unable to say anything at this time. He seemed on the verge of crying as he talked on for a long time, but as for what he saidCCthe host had no idea if her own translation was correct or not. It seems that you guys are all very excited! The host skipped over Little Ning directly. At this time, he wasnt just sobbing, he was crying loudly, the type that came with wailing. Who knew if God Ning would be embarrassed to death after watching the replay and have to drill into the cracks in the floor to survive. The fourth one to be interviewed was Lu Feng. The host was a little nervous when she saw Close. As long as they were from the Glory circle, no matter if they were newcomers or oldtimers, who wouldnt be nervous when they met Lu Feng? Players admired his personal strength and his absolute power and ability to take control of a club at a young age. Girls were fascinated by his height, bearing, and face, and then they would think about his achievements Well, no matter how much preparation was made prior to the interview, there would still be a small tremor in the initial moment of meeting in person. Whats more, Lu Feng even smiled briefly. The serious and reserved great demon king didnt even smile when he held the trophy cup for the global individual championships. But at this moment he smiled. The hosts little heart pounded, and she almost forgot her words. Fortunately, she was skilled enough that it had become instinct, and she was still able to ask the question. Lu Feng took the microphone and spoke quietly, Im very happy. The entire audience: ! It was like a hornets nest had been poked in the live broadcast studio as the screen filled with ahhhhhhhhs. The smile in Lu Fengs eyes didnt disperse, and his voice was unprecedentedly relaxed, I was very happy playing the game. He wasnt just happy because of winning the championship. It was more about enjoying the game. The old fans who heard these words really started wailing, crying just as much as God Ning. Lu Feng handed the microphone over to Wei Xiao, who was beside him. The moment God Xiao held the microphone, the atmosphere in the entire venue seemed to change. The host quickly came over and interviewed Wei Xiao as usual, asking him to share his victory speech. His attitude was very different from the excitement of the three little ones and was naturally also different from the great demon kings contentment. Wei Xiao took crazy all the way to the end, acting both crazy and arrogant! This is just the beginning. He dropped the ultimate bomb as soon as he opened his mouth. This year, the China competition zone will definitely win the world championship! These words made an impact as they landed, arrogant to the extreme. The China competition zone would win the world championship? Wouldnt that entail FTW winning the golden dragon cup?! Holding the silver dragon cup in hand while imagining the golden dragon cup. Little Lunatic Wei, youre really something! The venue exploded again, shrill screams ringing out endlessly. Wei Xiao hadnt finished speaking. He continued, Fellow brothers who lost to FTW, dont cry. Wait for us to earn quotas for you, and well fight again next year! The competition zone who won the global championship would be given two or three quotas in the coming year! This craziness This craziness was too likable! The audience all yelled out, Quiet is badass! FTW is badass! The China competition zone is badass! The noise was so loud that it shook the sky, the atmosphere igniting and reaching a peak again. Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun whod been provoked from off-stage, Who was going to go up and drag down this little brat? They wanted to beat him up! Yan Jiang, who normally showed no happiness or anger, curved his thin lips up slightly. He said quietly, Little lunatic. Xie He, who sat beside him and heard it all clearly: Yes, he was crazy enough. There was no doubting that tonight belonged to FTW. After the event, the revelry continued. FTW hosted a banquet, inviting almost all the staff to celebrate their victory together. Although the global competition would begin soon, Chen Feng still gave permission for everyone to have a drink. One bottle of beer was enough to topple the four little ones. There were no outsiders in their private room. After two hours of being in a daze, President Le finally came back to his senses. We won the championship? Ning Zhehan, whose eyes were already swollen from crying, started to tear up again. Yeah! Were the champions! Bai Cai was a little calmer. Laozi was also a champion support last year, but why wasnt it as exciting as this? Yue Wenle came up with a sentence at a snail-like pace, Its not the same. All the old-timers present felt a moment of shock in their hearts. It really wasnt the same! How was last years China competition zone as fierce as it was this year? Last year, regardless of whether it was RR, or 3U, they were still up and coming teams. TPT hadnt even made it into the top four then. But, what the hell happened this year? Each and every one of them were strong enough to explode, and they had all grown up like rockets, playing each game in ways that made peoples goosebumps jump right out. It didnt feel like it during the game, but thinking back on the memories was enough to make their scalps go numb. It had felt great at the time, but it was also scary reflecting back on it. There were differences between champions. This years China silver championship cup felt particularly weighty! Wei Xiao drank a sip of alcohol and began to let it get to his head. Calm down a bit, its just a silver dragon cup. If Brother Cai wasnt worried about getting killed by the great demon king, he would jump up and beat him up right then. Dont you feel embarrassed saying that! How are you even speaking the human language! Damn it, dropping trash talk on the stage of the finals, provoking the whole world arrogantly and domineeringly, Little Lunatic Wei, are you still f*cking human?! Oh, hed never been human. Alright then, even beasts werent as fierce as you! Wei Xiao held his head up high. Laozi dares to do what he says and dares to own up to what he does! He wouldnt have said it if he hadnt seen the Team of Gods sitting down there. He had to say it after he saw them! He just wanted to tell them: The championship belonged to FTW, and Close was his! As he spoke, he remembered something. I took a pentakill! He stressed it, A pentakill in the last fight of the national championship, in the match point game! Everyone in FTW: Were your neurons finally on the right track?! Brother Cai replied to him perfunctorily, Mm-hmm, God Xiao is badass, God Xiao should chug a glass. Wei Xiao was too lazy to pay attention to him. He turned to Lu Feng, his eyes wide. Captain! I took a pentakill! Lu Feng understood him. His eyelids lifted up slightly. Mm, the pentakill is yours. Wei Xiao: ! Brother Cai and Chen Feng, who were caught off guard by the memory that surfaced: Damn it, would they be able to stop the incoming dog food if they started eating the lobster now? It was obviously too late. Wei Xiao spoke in a loud voice, And you belong to me! Back then, when Wei Xiao was still an accompanying player, Lu Feng had disguised himself to approach him. Wei Xiaos first sentence of love had beenCCThe pentakill is yours, and you belong to me. Now The pentakill was Wei Xiaos, and Close was still Wei Xiaos. Chapter 213.2: Only then would FTW really belong to them. Bai Cais chopsticks quivered, and he tried to calm things down, Watch less online jokes. What do you mean, the pentakill is yours, and youre mine? Its all yours, okay, these are yours too! As he spoke, he pushed a plate of shrimp shells in front of him. Wei Xiao was disgusted to death. Who wants to eat your leftovers! Bai Cai felt like he was doing his best; even giving you all the shrimp shells wouldnt be enough to block that mouth of yours! Then, Wei Xiao suddenly stopped making nose. His two eyes curved as he looked at the captain, his voice so sticky it made peoples ears itch, Captain~ Bai Cai: What he hadnt heard was that Lu Feng had replied to Wei Xiaos words. After that sentence You belong to me, hed actually quietly made a sound of acknowledgement. The only people who heard were Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan. Little Nings ears trembled, ! Hed drunk too much and was hearing things, right?! It was nearing the early hours of the morning when the celebrations ended. Some of them were staggering and hunched as they returned to the base in the car. They didnt drink much, but they were quite drunk. Ning Zhehan began to talk in his sleep, Champion, Im actually the champion hehehehe. Hed gotten the championship just after his debut, making him so happy he was about to turn into a fool, okay? There was another person whod gotten the championship just after his debut, gotten a pentakill in the championship, and had also gotten the FMVP of the scene, who even dropped trash talk in front of the whole world, and acted so arrogantly it made people want to beat him up. Wei Xiao took advantage of the alcohol and excitement, and leaned directly against Lu Fengs shoulder, falling into a dazed sleep. Who cared. He was happy, enough to explode. It was already his limit not to have kissed the captain on the spot! The car drove directly into the bases parking lot. Brother Liu woke up the cubs one by one, coaxing them into the house to sleep. They had reached the limit of both their physical strength and energy after tossing about until now on such a day. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle got out of the car in a daze, heading straight to the dormitory upstairs. They didnt even bother to wash up before toppling over to sleep. Finally, there was only Lu Feng and Wei Xiao left in the car. Xiang Liu glanced over. Lu Feng waved his hand. Xiang Liu nodded, then called over the big brother driver to go home together to rest. After waiting for everyone else to leave, Lu Feng kissed the sleeping Wei Xiao on the forehead between his brows, his wrist sliding down to wrap around his waist. Even if it was a spacious van, it still wasnt easy to hug such a big boy horizontally. However, Lu Fengs embrace was very loose. Wei Xiao rubbed up vaguely against his neck, like a greedy cat. Lu Feng gave him a kiss. Wei Xiao woke up. When he opened his eyes, he hadnt quite figured out where he was. And then Wei Xiao was very surprised, quickly disentangling himself to look anxiously at his arm. I told you not to hold me. Even if hed already been healed, Lu Fengs shoulder was a pain that existed in his heart, and he couldnt cherish it enough. Let alone embracing, he even tried to avoid it when they slept. Lu Feng felt his heart soften into a ball of fluff. Its fine. Wei Xiao looked around and finally saw that he was still in the car. The car was in the garage, and the night was so quiet that there wasnt even a single mosquito in sight. Cough Wei Xiaos voice shifted slightly, and he started acting inhuman. You can hold me in a different way. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao hooked his arms around Lu Feng, pasting himself up against his ear to say, The finals are over. He continued, And we got the championship. Lu Feng held down a certain little lunatics long, restless fingers. Wei Xiao deliberately gasped for breath. Captain, isnt it time for you to fulfill your promise wu His mouth was blocked, and he couldnt speak any more, but kissing in comparison was much more exciting than flirty words. It started off as a punitive kiss, but it gradually changed. The two of them grew a little heated from the kiss. Wei Xiao tugged at his collar. This car is ours, right? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: Its not borrowed, right? Lu Feng breathed in lightly. Dont make trouble. Wei Xiao tugged at his belt. Right here, how exciting would it be in the car Lu Feng bit him on the neck, exerting a little force, in return for Wei Xiaos voice, Big brother, be a little lighter. If he could resist thisCC Then, President Lu wouldnt be a human being. A moment before his rationality disconnected, Lu Feng picked the youth up and strode out of the car. Wei Xiao was anxious. Captain Lu Fengs throat convulsed. Shut up. Wei Xiao didnt dare to kick up a fuss any more. The car is really okay, okay, back to the room. I can walk on my own He was too afraid of giving Lu Fengs shoulder any pressure. Lu Feng didnt let him down, and the direction he walked in didnt lead back to the house. The garage was on the second floor of the bases basement. It was very big, but there werent very many cars parked inside. There was only the van, Brother Cais Porsche, and Lu Fengs own car, that explosively cool Cullinan. The car door opened, and Wei Xiaos heart leapt up when he tossed into the back seat. Lu Feng pressed himself close, his eyes dark. In a bit, dont cry. Wei Xiao: !!! Earlier, he was as daring as the sky, but now his guts were as small as a ball. About that, captain if we make the car dirty mm The interior of the Mercedes Benz van and the interior of the Rolls Royce Cullinan were not of the same level. In this kind of narrow space, the sensory stimulation was greater than the physical stimulation. In fact, it wasnt too overboard, but Wei Xiao started crying anyway. How could Lu Feng stop? He could only kiss his tears away and coax him softly. As Wei Xiao cried, he eventually changed his tune, his voice sweet and sticky enough to make people want to f*ck him to death. Pentakill, championship, making love. The next day, Wei Xiao was left with only satisfaction in his heart. He slept all the way until it was dark again. Lu Feng was beside him when he opened his eyes. Wei Xiao drilled himself straight into his arms, pasting up against him and giving him a kiss, Did you just wake up? Lu Feng: I just came back. Wei Xiao shifted, and a certain spot twinged, making him suck in a breath in pain. Lu Feng poked his forehead. Who told you to make trouble. There were times where Wei Xiao would also be shy. Hed been caught up in the moment at the time, but when he thought back on it after the fact: Oh god, where did this little demon come from?! The captain didnt have it easy! Wei Xiao cleared his throat. The car Lu Feng: No need to worry. Wei Xiaos cheeks reddened slightly, and he thought to himself: I wont be able to look directly at the Cullinan in the future! Lu Feng saw through his thoughts with a glance. You even wanted to do it in the van. If he really did as he wished, then would they even be able to take the car in the future? Would they even be able to go compete? Wei Xiao kissed him and didnt let him talk any more. Lu Feng pinched his waist. Settle down. Wei Xiao was surprised. How is it Lu Feng stared at him. Wei Xiao was scared, he really was. No way, no way, Ill die if we do it again. The truth proved that the great demon king would indulge him. Otherwise, how would Little Lunatic Wei dare to act so recklessly? Although theyd won the championship, the global finals were just around the corner. Lu Feng was also reluctant to use up his energy. Wei Xiao was scared, but he also wanted to stick close to Lu Feng. He suggested tentatively, How about I use my hand Lu Feng held him down. Its fine. Wei Xiao stared at it. Really? Lu Fengs voice deepened, Itll be fine if you dont stare at it. Wei Xiao quickly moved his gaze away. Who wouldve dared to think that the little lunatic who wasnt afraid of anything in his daily life would have a moment cowering like this? Lu Feng got out of bed. Hungry? Wei Xiao was reluctant to let him go. So-so Lu Feng: Im going to go push the dining cart in. Wei Xiao was amused. Okay! Top level treatment, hey! In his heart, Wei Xiao was delighted: His pentakill and FMVP were worth it! These two days were happy holidays for FTW. Going over the game replay wasnt urgent, and training could wait for a while longer. After winning the domestic championship so beautifully, they needed time to recover. Sharpening the axe wont increase the time taken to split wood, and hot tofu couldnt be eaten no matter how impatient one was. Sharpening the axe wont increase the time taken to split wood- More preparation may quicken the speed in doing work It took time for their mentalities to calm down. Wei Xiao entangled himself with Lu Feng and didnt go downstairs. He boasted about his pentakill every day, and occasionally, he would show a bit of nervousness about the trash talk hed tossed out. Dont judge based on how Brother Xiao was aggressive and provoked the whole world; he was soft in front of his sweetheart. People could feel fear. No matter how bold he was, Wei Xiaos heart held a weakness named Close. Captain, Im not going to mess up, will I? Without waiting for Lu Feng to open his mouth to speak, Wei Xiao went on by himself, I definitely wont! Lu Feng comforted him. Maintain your current state, and it wont be much of a problem. Wei Xiao nodded. Yeah! Youll press Old Yue to death, and Old Yue will beat Kim Sung-hyun head on. Brother Ning will mess up God Xie, and Brother Cai will suppress Captain Yan perfect! Lu Feng looked at him. What about you? Me? Wei Xiaos eyes curved. Im going to tear Yuan Ze apart with my hands, beat up God Kim, cut God Xie down until he cries, and crush Captain Yan! Not bad; he might be small, but he had a big appetite. His mouth spoke wild words, but his heart was still uncertain. While sleeping, Wei Xiao would hug Lu Feng tight, unconsciously pouring out all the words in his heartCC Want the world championship, want the captain free The last two words were like a knife made out of sugar. It stabbed right into the tip of Lu Fengs heart. Win the world championship. Hold up the golden dragon cup. Only then would FTW really belong to them. Chapter 214.1: Idols are meant to get... Holidays always went by quickly, especially when they were short. Two days time wasnt enough for them to recover from the excitement of winning the championship, but Chen Feng had already dragged them back to the training room one by one in preparation of going over the game replays of the national finals. Brother Cai had gone back to his hometown and returned with a lot of local specialties. He also had spicy pork jerky cooked by Father Cai. When Wei Xiao came in, Little Ning was in the midst of exclaiming, Its so good! Its fragrant and spicy, and the taste lingers between the lips and teeth! Bai Cai was delighted. He took out his cell phone and said, God Ning, say more since you know what to say; my dad loves to hear such things. Little Ning immediately sat upright, just like a food anchor when they tasted food in an exaggerated manner and praised the spicy jerky as something that only existed in heaven; it was 100% delicious! Ning Zhehan noticed Wei Xiao and immediately beckoned him over. Brother Xiao, give it a try, this jerky is really tasty! Wei Xiao: Of course he knew it was delicious. In the past, he could eat a whole catty of it on his own. However he shouldnt eat spicy food right now. Bai Cai got it. He doesnt like eating it. Wei Xiao sighed; Sigh, its true that one couldnt have the best of both worlds. When one has love, then something else has to be given up. Ning Zhehan was surprised. Brother Xiao doesnt like to eat such delicious jerky?! Wei Xiao steeled himself and pushed forward. Its Unexpectedly, Father Cais surprised voice came out from Bai Cais cell phone, Little Xiao? Little Xiao loves to eat the jerky that I make. Last year when he came to my house, he ate a whole catty of it and took away two more. He even put in a preorder with me for the next pig! Bai Cai: ! Damn it, hed forgotten to turn off the video call just now so that Ning Zhehan could blow out his rainbow farts! He could only listen as Father Cai continued, Little Ning, dont listen to Baibais nonsense. Hes messing around and purposely not letting Little Xiao eat. Quickly give it to him, he loves to eat it the most. Wei Xiao was the most unable to stand up for himself against this kind of loving and amiable parent. He rushed over to say hello, the words from his mouth sweet as he said a whole basket of good things, directly making Old Bais Fathers face light up with happiness. Try it, quickly. Last time, you said it wasnt spicy enough, so I put in more this time. I picked out these peppers myself, and its definitely spicy enough now! Wei Xiao: Brother Cai, who was a straight man but knew no less than a gay: Little Ning, who knew nothing. Its really enough! Its super spicy! Wei Xiao was really unable to hold up against Old Bais Fathers expectant gaze. He picked up a piece of fiery red jerky, knowing with one glance that it was a piece of spicy jerky that would cause problems as long as it was eaten. Cough Father Cai: Try it! Wei Xiaos heart leapt, and he was about to abandon himself. Enough. Bai Cai snatched up the jerky and said to his father, Wei Xiaos stomach hasnt been good these past two days, he cant eat spicy stuff. Wei Xiao: Bai Cai convinced his father with a few short sentences. It even made Father Cai say quickly, This child, why didnt you say so if you arent feeling good? Dont eat it, have Caicai keep it for you. You can slowly savor it after youre better, this kind of thing keeps well! Wei Xiao was finally let off the hook and quickly went with the flow. After hanging up the video call, Little Ning looked at Wei Xiao. Brother Xiao, your stomach is uncomfortable? Wei Xiao wouldnt lie to Uncle Cai, but he was very good at coaxing Little Ning. It only took a few short sentences for him to convince granny gray. Bai Cai went to find a small bag and split out a portion of the jerky to put in the refrigerator. He came back just in time to hear Wei Xiaos nonsense, with Little Ning listening to it all in a daze. Bai Cai secretly cursed to himselfCC What was Wei Xiao doing earlier?! He couldnt even come up with an excuse about his stomach feeling uncomfortable a while ago, but now, he was using one trick after another on Little Ning. He might curse, but Bai Cais heart actually stung a little. Wei Xiao had such a glib tongue, but he was a person who just insisted on not lying to his silly father. It was nominally a game replay review, but in fact, it was more about mobilizing the players mentality while suppressing their inflated little egos. After going through a season spanning a full half a year and finally winning the silver dragon cup, let alone the four little ones, even the experienced coaching staff had somewhat relaxed their vigilance. And the global competition was coming up. The silver dragon cup was just an entry ticket. If they didnt settle their hearts back down again, they would really be setting themselves up to mess up badly. Although the core goal wasnt a replay review, these three games really had value. As it progressed, the entire training room became engrossed in the review process. FTW had played very well, but there was also a lot that was worth learning from TPT. Watching these three games from the gods perspective gave them a deeper feeling for the game. Two days wasnt enough time for them to forget many of the details of the game, but looking at it again now still made them feel surprised. They marveled at Fu Lis coordination, marveled at TPTs integrity, and they were also surprised at each TPT players robust mindset. Especially in the last game. It was clearly a critical moment of life and death, but they still maintained their high quality level of play. They werent in a hurry and werent impatient as they nibbled at FTWs resources and suppressed their room for survival. It would be hard to say who would have won or lost if it hadnt been for Closes group fight in the dragon pit. Chen Feng emphasized this segment of the game, I listened to the team chat. Everyone cooperated very well here. Lu Feng had told them all to gather, and the entire team had rallied together quickly. There hadnt been even half a second of delay, and this had been the critical point. If Ning Zhehan had hesitated for half a second, then he wouldve teleported over half a second late. If Bai Cai had hesitated for half a second and failed to give their team the speed buff, his teammates wouldnt have been able to rush over in time. It was even more important that Wei Xiao and Yue Wenle hadnt hesitated. They were the core DPS dealers, and if theyd arrived any later, then Lu Feng wouldve charged up only to die in vain. Lu Feng had given them a very limited time frame. As long as any one of them had delayed just a little bit, their victory might have gone to TPT. However, no one had delayed, and no one had hesitated. With one single order, hed called over thousands of troops. The victory in the dragon pit had been won through sheer power on FTWs side! Chen Feng praised Ning Zhehans snatching of the dragon. Little Ning was shy. It was good luck. Chen Feng: Luck is also a kind of strength. Little Ning scratched his hair and was foolishly happy. After they finished going through the games, the door to the training room opened, and Brother Liu came in, looking excited. Chen Feng: Whats the matter? Xiang Liu: Training match! Chen Feng frowned. With who? Xiang Liu: EVE. Their coach just called to make an appointment Damn it, EVEs beautiful coach had given him a call; Brother Lius head was a little up in the clouds! Wei Xiaos eyes brightened. Lets do it! EVE was like a painkiller! This training match was worth its weight in gold! Chen Feng nodded. Time. Xiang Liu: Six oclock in the afternoon. Chen Feng: Okay. It was already four oclock in the afternoon. After having a meal and taking a break, it would be six. Using EVE to warm up, not bad! Things were different after winning the championship. Little Ning no longer cowered and was even a little eager for a fight. God Xie, my idol. Which mid-laner didnt treat him as their idol? Wei Xiao quipped, Idols are meant to get f*ckC Bai Cais ears hurt. Can you f*cking talk like a human being, or not. Wei Xiaos expression was innocent. How am I not talking like a human being? Bai Cai: You said Wei Xiao: Idol are meant to get f*cked up, whats the problem with that? Bai Cai: There was really a difference between getting f*cked and getting f*cked up, but Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. Old Bai, youre so dirty, whats the matter with you? Hurry up and find a bottle of disinfectant to clean up your brain. Brother Cai: He was going to be angered to death by this dog sooner or later! Chen Feng was very satisfied with this sudden training match. Using EVE to cool down their mental state before the competition worked out just right. At dinner, Wei Xiao asked Lu Feng secretly, Captain, were you the one who made an appointment with God Xie? Lu Feng shook his head. Wei Xiao wondered about it. Then why did God Xie suddenly want to play a training match with us? Without waiting for Lu Feng to answer, Wei Xiao had already found an answer to the question. Could it be because he was shocked by our performance in the finals? Lu Feng: There was no need to provide accompaniment; Wei Xiao was very skilled at solo cross-talk. Sigh, this is what its like to be strong, they all want to play with us Lu Feng fed him a mouthful of congee. Eat. Wei Xiao ate his congee delightedly. Why did EVE want to have a training match with FTW? The finals was one reason for it, but the other reason was selfishness on Xie Hes part. As for what that selfishness was Theyd know after they finished playing. Both sides were very punctual. They opened up the game room ten minutes in advance, then started on time at six. There wasnt much to say about the training match, they just had to fight and be done with it. Chen Feng gave them a relatively conservative line-up to start with during BP, and EVE didnt show any ambiguity at all as they locked in the immortal warlock with their first position. It was clear that they wanted to teach them a lesson. Wei Xiao grew excited. Laozis going to blow him up! Little Ning was also arrogant. Hammer him! Chen Feng: Ha, ha. Ning Zhehan was given a bouncing and jumping fire mage. Ning Zhehan: How was he supposed to fight with this? The immortal warlock could fly and attack the fire mage until it went into seclusion. Chen Feng splashed cold water on him directly. If I got you the spirit mage, youd be beaten into seclusion even more. At the end of the day, they were still old teammates. Chen Feng had more than just a little bit of understanding regarding Xie He. When this fellow took out the immortal warlock, then it meant that he was going to go up against the heavens and the earth. In a conventional game, the spirit mage could hold up against the immortal warlock, but Chen Feng didnt give Ning Zhehan the spirit mage. It wasnt that he didnt believe in Ning Zhehan, but because it was unnecessary. Even if it was a proper game, it was always 100 times better to avoid Xie He like the wind when he took the immortal warlock. There were differences in both strength and experience. Why gamble on luck? Besides, Ning Zhehans spirit mage might not be able to beat Xie He, but it could beat other mid-laners. If it was taken out for the training match, it wouldnt be worth it if he was beaten into seclusion by Xie He and left with a psychological shadow regarding the spirit mage, affecting his performance in subsequent matches. These things that Chen Feng thought of might seem like he was making a mountain out of a molehill to those who hadnt yet experienced it before. How could it be so exaggerated? It was a competitive game, and they were all professional players. How could the difference be so big? In fact, the gap was bigger than what could be seen. The cruelty of the competition lay in the fact that unfairness always existed in fairness. Talent, luck, confidence. The gaps between different people would be infinitely magnified when they were in the same field. Until they were incredibly large. xiin: i fell asleep and forgot that i hadnt posted a glory chapter yet @[email protected] Chapter 214.2: Is God Xie shy? What did it mean to have a cold basin of water poured over their head? Ning Zhehan understood it as soon as the game began. China competition zones champion? The number one mage king in China? The rookie king who won the championship in his first season? Wake up! In front of God Xie, you are nothing! Ning Zhehan sucked in a breath. I need support! He now realized Chen Fengs good intentions. The fire mage was famous for being fast at clearing lane soldiers. Tossing out the first skill plus a fireball would create stacked explosion damage that quickly cleared out the lane. The immortal warlock was a little cripple before level six, and even flying around with the connecting clouds wouldnt deal much damage. It might even get taken down to half health by the fire mages ranged damage as it tried to clear the lane soldiers. However Ning Zhehan, whod taken a fire mage, wasnt even as fast at clearing lane soldiers as Xie He was! How was he doing it? In fact, he knew how it had been accomplished, but how could he dare to play like that? When it came to confidence, once it had been accumulated to a certain degree, it became a very arrogant and outrageous strength! Brother Cai: The pressure on this side isnt small, either. Although EVE was a team with a mid-laner core, their ADC was also famous globally, and their jungler and support were like a pair of Siamese conjoined twins, pressuring Yue Wenle so much that he could only hide beneath his tower. Ning Zhehan: Ouch! Hed been hit by the immortal warlock and lost a quarter of his health. It was clearly his character in the canyon whod been hit, but he personally felt like hed been cut by a knife. Wei Xiao: Im coming. Ning Zhehans expression was bitter. I think EVEs jungler is in the upper bushes. Wei Xiao took a look at his field of vision. Ill go in from the bottom. What they hadnt expected was that EVEs jungler wasnt in the upper bushes, but in the bottom lane. Fortunately, Wei Xiao was still careful and didnt try to check the bushes with his character. Otherwise, he would be a dead thief. Ning Zhehan was surprised. I just saw him clearing the bugs in the upper river zone. How come hes now When had he gone over there? Could the players from strong teams all move in the blink of an eye?! Wei Xiao didnt have to speak. He and EVEs jungler exchanged a round of attacks, and seeing that the immortal warlock was coming close, he spoke urgently, Little Ning! The fire mage might be scared, but the cooperation that they had trained was still present. He shot out fireballs one after another to block the immortal warlocks path. Xie He gave up on Wei Xiao and went for Ning Zhehan instead. Ning Zhehan squeaked and squawked and narrowly made his escape by using flash. There was a small round of fighting in the middle lane, but no casualties from either side. In the overall situation, FTW lost a little because Ning Zhehan had to use his flash. Chen Feng let out a sigh. He could already see where this was going. He was too familiar with Xie Hes routine, and he knew what he was thinking at a glance. The fire mage had used up its flash before level six. At the moment when the immortal warlock reached level six and could fly up with thousand layers of clouds, the fire mage would definitely die. Ning Zhehan: Wu! There was no suspense. When the thousand layers of clouds covered the middle lane, the fire mages soul was sent back home. The toppled Ning Zhehan cried and wailed, Brother Xiao Wei Xiao picked up the thread of the conversation. Got f*cked over by your idol? Little Ning burst out into tears with a wail. Chen Feng took in the whole situation and had an understanding of what was happening in his heart. There was definitely a gap between FTW and EVE, and this gap wasnt small. EVEs top-laner, Smith, was a steady veteran. He might not be able to suppress Close, but he was enough to hold him down without losing First Blood. Their jungler CC had been a rookie in Europe last year. He was a tall and buff man who had an eye for detail, and had very much grasped the essence of playing a toolman jungler. EVEs mid-jungler linkage was one of their special features. In the bottom lane, M and D were two good brothers. They were a famous pair of Siamese twins in Glory. It was said that the two of them had been together since their debut, and theyd also transferred together. Theyd been playing Glory for five years, and had never separated during their careers. The phrase feelings were stronger than gold probably referred to this kind of good fellow brothers! Not to mention, they had Xie He in the middle lane. The worlds number one mage king, an honored player in the Temple of Glory, and the one whose immortal warlock gave game planners headaches as big as a herd of oxen. If they nerfed it, then what about ordinary players? If they didnt nerf it, then this Xie immortal warlock had too much of an influence on the balance of the competition system! That FTW was able to play back and forth with them said a lot about their great progress over the past six months. Their national championship hadnt been won for nothing, and their 3:0 score hadnt been achieved by luck. The growth of the four little ones was visible to the naked eye, and they were only lacking experience to catch up to the worlds top teams! They played a total of six training matches, and FTW won three of them. If these results were posted online, it would be enough for fans to boast for half a year. However, FTWs egos werent inflated. They, especially Chen Feng, could see the situation very clearly. In the first two matches, FTW had been badly battered. One match had been a sudden death match, and theyd had no way to turn the tables in the second match. In the third match, EVE had let out the shadow thief, and Wei Xiao had gone on a killing spree, snatching up the rhythm and killing his way through the game. They lost the fourth match, and from the fifth match onwards, EVE was no longer as aggressive, allowing FTW to gradually adapt to this pace. The four little ones biggest advantage was that they had a healthy mentality and were very serious no matter how long they played for. So, FTW won both the fifth and sixth match. The results of the training matches should be taken with a grain of salt. EVE certainly hadnt tried their best, and FTW hadnt tried their best either. The difference in strength was one factor for why theyd lost the first two matches so miserably, but another reason for it was their relaxed spirits after winning the championship. Even so, it was excellent that theyd been able to win the last two matches. Having a good attitude, playing stably, and being serious and conscientious were all rare good qualities. Chen Feng was very satisfied with the training matches and was already preparing to stay up late to sort out the data for the postgame reviews. After the training match ended, neither side was in a rush to leave the game room. Wei Xiao: God Xie, hows my teams Little Ning? Brother Cai muttered in his heart: Its starting, hes f*cking starting again! Xie He: Ha. Wei Xiao: Then, what about me? Xie He: Wei Xiao: You see, I killed you three times in the last game. Xie He: Wei Xiao: Dont you want to take revenge?! Xie He: Come on. Wei Xiao immediately left the room and sent him a new invite. This was such a good opportunity. How could he satisfy his cravings without a few solo games ? So, Xie He and Wei Xiao played seven or eight games while everyone watched. Both of them were peak level opportunists who managed a one-to-one winning rate. They would attack if the opportunity could be seized, and they always fought to the death, leaving the very air charged with murderous intent. Ning Zhehans heart pounded as he watched from the side. If my immortal warlock could be at this level Although the win rate was even, one was a mage and the other was a jungler. Reasonably speaking, the mage should be smeared all over the ground by the thief when they soloed. But now, it was an even win rate, which was enough to prove how powerful Xie He was. Wei Xiao tsked, God Xies play style is really very special His thoughts churned, and he came up with another idea. God Xie! Xie He: Hm? Wei Xiao: My Little Ning wants to solo with you too! Little Ning: ! I dont, I didnt, Brother Xiao, dont say nonsense about me! Xie He was merciless. No time. When Ning Zhehan saw this, he felt both a little disappointed and very relieved. Wei Xiao wasnt about to let Xie He go like that. The timing is something we can discuss, right. He had a level of understanding in his heart that Xie He must have been aiming for something when he arranged for this training match. If he didnt try to probe it out now, then when? Xie He: Wei Xiao spoke euphemistically, How about this? We cant let you work in vain. You can ask for anything you want after soloing? Wei Xiao dared to say this because had a level of certainty in his heart. Xie He wasnt Old Dog Yuan, and he wouldnt act like a chicken thief. Xie He paused briefly. Solo is possible. Wei Xiao: Then Xie He: In another location. Wei Xiao: Where do you want to go? Just say it. How about coming to the FTW base? Hed only mentioned it casually and hadnt expected to have hit the heart of the matter. Xie He typed, Okay. Wei Xiao blinked. Xie He then added another sentence, FTWs old base. Wei Xiao got it. He tilted his head to look at Lu Feng. Captain, is God Xie missing home? It was fortunate that they hadnt turned on voice chat. Otherwise, if Xie He heard these words, he might become embarrassed and angry enough to fly directly back to Europe! Lu Feng was stunned for a brief moment, and then his lips curved up slightly. I dont know. Wei Xiao smiled like a fox as he replied back to Xie He, Sure, theres a complete set of equipment over there. Let alone soloing, it wouldnt even be a problem to play training matches. Xie He: Oh. Wei Xiao: Then, Ill pick you up tomorrow? Xie He: Oh. Wei Xiao continued, Should I call my Captain over too? Xie He: Wei Xiao quickly added, Oh, my captains not free. He has a meeting in the morning. Xie He: Wei Xiao: Dont worry, Ill definitely make the proper arrangements and ensure that you feel right at home. Ding dong. EVE.Xiehe left the room. Wei Xiao looked at Lu Feng again, Is this God Xie being shy? Lu Feng stretched out his index finger and flicked it against this little evildoers forehead. At this time God Kim, who was at FTWs old base, didnt know anything about this upcoming surprise inspection. Chapter 215.1: Oh... the whole L&P and Pro teams are here. They agreed to meet the next afternoon. Wei Xiao was quite kind about it. He asked Lu Feng, Should we go and inform God Kim? Forget about Yuan Ze; if they told him ahead of time, he might even purposely stir up some trouble. It wouldnt be a stretch for that old beast to turn around, tie EVE and FTW together, and then screw them over together. Kim Sung-hyun had a good reputation in FTW, and Wei Xiao cared about him. Lu Feng: Whatever you want. Wei Xiaos eyes curved. Alright, Ill take care of it! He gave Kim Sung-hyun a call, but hed never thought that God Kim would actually have his phone off. Wei Xiao spread his hands. In that case, theres no helping it. The corner of Lu Fengs lips also curved up slightly. Brother Cai, who was listening to the side, felt panic choke his heart. There was a sweet little fox hanging around the black-bellied great demon king Team of Gods, youre on your own! Wei Xiao really had made the phone call, and Kim Sung-hyun really had his phone off, but if he was serious about informing him, he couldve asked Brother Liu to contact the club manager or someone else in the team, or even leave a WeChat message. But Wei Xiao understood what Lu Feng meant with his whatever you want. He didnt want to give Kim Sung-hyun an advance warning that badly. It had been three years. Playing a prank on them wasnt so bad. Close might feel bad doing it, but Quiet didnt mind at all! Why was Kim Sung-hyuns phone turned off? There was actually a reason behind it. Before the Chinese finals, Kim Sung-hyun had promised to go back to FTW with Xie He and take a look around after the game. On the first day after the game, Kim Sung-hyun avoided Xie He. On the second day, Kim Sung-hyun remained silent. On the third day, Xie He gave him a call. Kim Sung-hyun: I have quite a lot of training matches scheduled. How about There was a click as Xie He hung up. If he didnt want to go, then forget it! So, hed arrange a training match with FTW instead and rush up to send out kills. Kim Sung-hyun felt guilty, so he simply turned his phone off and played dead. The next day, Lu Feng assigned Wei Xiao a driver and let him out to play. Before leaving, Wei Xiao asked Lu Feng, You really wont come? Lu Feng really had something to do. No. Wei Xiao: Alright! Wait for my good news! Lu Feng smiled. Dont mess around too fiercely. Wei Xiao: I have a sense of discretion~! He wasnt going alone. Little Secretary Cai had taken a high hourly salary to accompany President Wei to go on an expedition at the old base. Wei Xiao disdained him. What are you coming with me for? Brother Cai casually spoke nonsense, Helping the captain keep an eye on you. Wei Xiao: I wont randomly flirt with people. Bai Cai: Are you not clear in your own heart about whether or not you f*cking would? There was no door on his mouth, and he could even sweet talk the great demon king. Was there anyone else that he couldnt sort out? Wei Xiao cleared his throat and actually showed a slightly shy expression. Its not easy having a vinegar king at home. Bai Cai: Wei Xiao came up to him and asked, Say, why does the captain like being jealous so much? Brother Cai rolled his eyes. Wei Xiao answered his own question, Is it because he loves me so much? Brother Xiao became worked up about this topic, and had a deep discussion about this problem with him the whole way there. Bai Cai: He f*cking shouldnt have gotten into the car! When they arrived at the hotel EVE was staying in, Brother Cai was finally able to flee for his life and breathe again. They arrived at just the right time. Xie He was very punctual and ran out from the lobby as soon as the car came to a stop. The automatic door opened, revealing Xie He in a cap, a black mask, a T-shirt with a distinctive logo, and wide, casual pants. The trouser legs were tucked into limited edition sneakers, and he looked both trendy and stylish. No one else could match his 2.8 meter tall aura. The doormans eyes were locked on him, and he didnt need to speak to convey his meaning: Which star was this? His style was really like that of an idol. Wei Xiao greeted him, Did God Xie come alone? Xie He was wearing a mask, and his voice was a little muffled, Mm. Wei Xiao didnt say anything else, and they got into the car together. Brother Cai greeted Xie He, and Xie He made a sound in response. FTW wasnt far from the hotel. It was a 15-16 minute drive. Xie He had a cold personality and didnt speak much. Brother Cai didnt dare try to strike up a conversation with him, but Wei Xiao didnt care. He casually brought up yesterdays training match, talking on his own without any embarrassment. They went the same route as before. The car first drove past FTWs current base, and looking out from the window, the lush gardens and the villa nestled within gave the summer afternoon a feeling of coolness and tranquility. Wei Xiao looked at Xie He. Do you want to see the new base while youre here? Xie He shook his head. No need. Wei Xiao: In that case, lets go directly to the old base. Xie He nodded and turned to look out the window at this familiar, yet strange scene. The urban area in S City had changed a lot. Three years was neither long nor short; for a small familiar town, it might even remain unchanged over a long period of time like the flowing streams in the village. For the ever-changing big cities, three years was an earth-shaking amount of time. The e-sports park was in the suburbs, and it was a new project that had been completed a year ago. The old FTW base was also in this area, but there had been no concept of an e-sports park at the time. Clubs had just settled there without any pre-agreements, and only later was an e-sports park planned in the area. Xie He was an S City native, but by now, hed been wandering outside for three years. How could he not be homesick? He missed the people close to him, and he missed everyone. His eyelashes drooped slightly. He didnt quite dare to look at the old FTW base in front of him. He felt anxious coming back after so many years of absence. There was too much here. There was laughter, passion, struggle, and glory. And that final, lonely end. Young and powerless, he could only go far away from home. No matter how much bitterness one suffered away from home, no matter how tired one became, how much blood and sweat was shed, none of it could beat the feeling of this first glance of revisiting ones old home. CCTo feel aggrieved. This was an emotion that could only grow at home. Xie He was in a complicated mood when the car came to a sudden stop. Wei Xiao: God Xie? Xie He pressed down the brim of his cap. Mm. They got out of the car together and walked towards this vacant villa, step by step. Xie He looked at it unblinkingly with mixed feelings in his heart; although no one was living there anymore, it had been kept very tidy and clean. Three years ago, the building had been abandoned and left empty. The fact that there was no decay meant that Close had protected it well. Hed heard that FTW had moved out of this base a year ago, but unexpectedly, it still seemed to contain a sense of human habitation. It was quite His thoughts stopped abruptly. Because of that very familiar, angry and cursing voice that he occasionally heard in his dreams, Old Shit Yuan, you f*cking killed me four times! Xie He: Through the second floor window, there was a certain ADC whose mixed Korean and Chinese communication intensified whenever he was worked up, Youre done for! Let me tell you, you and Old G are done for, Im going to let you understand what it means for your life to be ruined with Daddy Kim here! Xie He: At this moment, Xie He, who thought he was having hearing hallucinations, looked first at Wei Xiao, then at Bai Cai. The little white cabbage trembled and wished he could shrink back behind Brother Xiao. Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. Its quite lively. Xie He: Kim Sung-hyun? Wei Xiao: Captain Yuan is here too. Oh the whole L&P and Pro teams are here. Xie He: It was clear just from listening to the sounds from upstairs that the two teams were in the midst of playing a training match. Wei Xiao didnt act polite with them. These fellows were eating and living there for nothing, so to hell with sneaking around! He would openly and blatantly go in to watch their training match, and even a closed door wouldnt stop himCCWei Xiao had keys! Coincidentally, the teams upstairs had just finished a game. It sounded like L&P won, and Kim Sung-hyun had been cut down miserably, dying at Yuan Zes hands four times over. They were just about to start the next game when the door opened. The door was only so big. Wei Xiao was at the front, and Brother Cai was next. Xie He was blocked tightly from view. The people in the training room all called out greetings when they saw that it was Little Lunatic Wei, You came at just the right time. Do you want to watch the training match? They werent treating Wei Xiao like an outsider and invited him to watch the fight. Wei Xiao chuckled and moved to the side. Brother Cai didnt dare laugh, but he cooperated very well. As soon as the two of them got out of the way, it left Xie He standing on his own at the entrance. His appearance shocked everyone in the whole training room! Old G: Xiexie Yuan Ze bonked him on the head. Old G covered his head and shut up. Old Dog Yuan really lived up to his name. He was still able to laugh when faced with this embarrassing scene, and he even invited Xie He to come in and watch the training match. Xie He: His black eyes shifted to Kim Sung-hyun. God Kim: ! He really wished he could hide even just half of himself behind Li Heran. Xie He spoke half a second later, You guys live here? His voice was as cold as could be, making everyone in the training room feel that todays air conditioner had been turned on a little too strong. It was as cold as the dead of winter. Kim Sung-hyun: Cough. At this moment, Proud Flower Kim was like the husband or wife whod been caught cheating in bed again. It was embarrassing enough to send him spiraling up to heaven! Yuan Ze was inhumanly good at tossing the blame around. Yeah, I wanted to borrow a place to live at FTWs new base at first, but Kim Sung-hyun came here afterwards, so I came over to keep him company. Kim Sung-hyun: ??? He had an amazing ability to confuse even black and white. Xie He turned to Kim Sung-hyun, Youve been living here the whole time Kim Sung-hyun: F*ck. Kim Sung-hyun didnt have time to deal with Old Shit. He would first explain himself before figuring out the rest, I got fooled by Yuan Ze. You He glanced at Wei Xiao. Quiet, come testify for me! Wei Xiao blinked. Kim Sung-hyun urged him to speak. Wei Xiao spoke, If God Kim doesnt want to live here, how about Kim Sung-hyun: He was a little beast who had inherited his beastliness from one generation to another. How could he have any expectations for Little Lunatic Wei?! Yuan Ze was getting into it, Since God Kim doesnt want to live here, Old Xie, how about moving in? You know how many rooms there are here, just enough for two teams. Anything more wont fit. Kim Sung-hyun: ! God Xie: His eyelashes drooped slightly. This expression, could it be that he was really considering it? Kim Sung-hyun: Nonsense, weve already settled in, and the globals are coming up. Whats the point in tossing about. Yuan Ze: Theres still ten days. Xie He: Nine days. Kim Sung-hyun: Yuan Ze: Staying at the hotel must cost at least 20,000 a day, right? Considering the team and its entourage, this figure was a conservative estimate. Xie He: Mm. Kim Sung-hyun: Old Xie, you dont have to concern yourself with the operations of the team. Who are you saving this spending money for Yuan Ze: Besides, we can play training matches anytime and anywhere over here. Kim Sung-hyun glared at him. Shut up! Yuan Ze really did as he asked and mimicked pulling a zipper shut over his mouth. Xie He: Oh yeah. Chapter 215.2: Does the whole world know how f*cking smart you are?! Bai Caicai, who was watching from the side, was shocked silly. This was the Team of Gods? This was the legendary, high and unattainable Team of Gods who were each more badass, more famous, and more domineering than each other? As the well-informed Gossip Emperor, Bai Cai had received a lot of messy gossip about the Team of Gods. No matter which big author or how long or detailed the article was, they never followed this kind of style! The bitter hatred that was spread through the Team of Gods was well-established in the fan circle! Who couldve known that the real Team of Gods was actually The filters had been broken. The Gossip Emperor wouldnt be able to gossip about the Team of Gods in the future. This sand sculpture aura that smacked him right in the face It was an official OOC! Wei Xiao was really worthy of being the leader of the new generation of (sand sculpture) FTW. He came up with a genius move as soon as he opened his mouth, I have an idea! The three of them looked at him simultaneously. Wei Xiao: Only two teams can live here. Since everyone wants to move in, how about holding a battle. The three members from the Team of Gods: ??? Yuan Ze reacted the fastest. Theres no need for me to compete, lets invite God Kim and God Xie. Wei Xiao: Dont do that, everyone should compete fairly. Kim Sung-hyun had been tricked into a half-dead state by Yuan Ze. How would he be willing to miss out on this opportunity? He spoke up immediately, Okay, lets battle. Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao wasnt afraid of making the excitement bigger. Is Captain Yuan scared? Proud Flower Kim chimed in, stating coldly, Make room for others if youre scared. Alright, then. The goals changed, and they all began to fight over who could move in. It was no longer clear who had looked like they were constipated when they saw the old base a few days ago or if theyd wanted to bang their heads against the wall. Scared? Who was scared? They could be afraid of anyone but these guys! So, the three of them came to a decision and decided to fight over their spot at the base! Yuan Ze: Solo? This so-called battle could only be like this. So, theyd solo; Yuan Zes title as a solo king didnt come into existence through exaggeration. Kim Sung-hyun and Xie He were just about to agree when Wei Xiao spoke up, Dont do that. Everyone looked at him again. How could Wei Xiao give such simple advice? He definitely had to strive for some benefits, Whats the point in solo? Come and play 5v5 training matches! What was the point in solo? Anyone could say this sentence, but Wei Xiao, you crazy solo demon, didnt deserve to say such a thing! However, Brother Cai didnt dare to say anything about it. The whole floor was filled with big guys, and he just wanted to crawl under the table. Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, and Xie He all paused. Xie He spoke up first, Okay. This ** tone instantly fired up the other two. Okay. In any case, there was no lack of training matches prior to the globals, and they just had to play and be done with it. There was even a bonus if they won, which made things exciting. Wei Xiao started up again, Theres another condition. Yuan Ze: What? Wei Xiao: Include FTW. The little white cabbage in the corner: ! F*ck, Little Lunatic Wei really deserved his reputation. This scheme of his ran deep, and it even managed to encompass the Team of Gods?! They were all experienced people. Who wouldnt understand what he meant? Yuan Ze stared at him. Youre clever. Wei Xiao was bold and reasonable. The base belongs to FTW. As the landlords, were eligible to participate. The implication was that they were fighting over FTWs real estate. The fact that they werent paying rent could be overlooked, but they had to involve them in the training matches. This truth was very solid, and no one could refute it. Yuan Ze thought it over. How will we play? Kim Sung-hyun: Draw lots, elimination system. Xie He: Round robin. Wei Xiao raised his hand. The three of them looked at him. Wei Xiaos eyes curved. How about this? In any case, our FTW wont get any reward if we win, so we wont seek to rank. Instead, well try our best to act as sandbags for you. Yuan Ze could vaguely guess what was in this little beasts mind. At the end of the day, Kim Sung-hyun and Xie He were still na?ve. Sandbags? Wei Xiao: Yeah. Each of your teams will play ten games with FTW. Winning one game means one point, and the two teams who end up with the highest points will live here. How about it? Brother Cai, who was spectating from the side, stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Everyone in the training room who could understand Chinese: Only you, Little Lunatic Wei. Does the whole world know how f*cking smart you are?! Trying to gain training matches empty-handed and making such high-level, high quality attempts at that. Was FTW a sandbag? They were clearly the biggest winners! When Yuan Ze went up against Little Lunatic Wei, he was often left propping up his forehead with his hand because he himself wasnt enough of a beast. Wont you be tired? Wont your teammates be tired? His appetite was so big, and he wasnt afraid of dying from overdoing it. FTW would tire themselves to death with 30 games! Wei Xiao: Whats there to be tired about? My teammates are in good shape and it wont be a problem to fight 300 rounds. Caicai, as one of the teammates: Im not, I didnt, dont drag me into the water with you! It was impossible for them to agree to this. If they really agreed, then Lulu would kill them. Yuan Ze made a decision, Round robin point system. Wei Xiao pouted. Yuan Ze glared at him. Be satisfied with what you get. Wei Xiao refused, Two cycles! Everyone: This so-called round robin point system meant that the four teams would each fight each other. Using FTW as an example, they would play one game with each of the other three teams, and then their scores would be calculated. After all the games were fought, the ranking would be based on the score. Two cycles of round robin meant to cycle through the teams twice. Using FTW as an example, they would play two games with each of the other three games. The score calculation method remained the same. Wei Xiao continued his efforts, Or how about three cycles? Everyone: Even 30 cycles wouldnt be enough to satisfy you! Well go with that. Yuan Ze said, Double cycle round robin point system. The two teams ranked at the top will live here. Other than Wei Xiao, everyone else was very satisfied with this. A single cycle was a little short so a double cycle was just right. A scuffle for the base prior to the globals Well, it was a little strange. On Xie Hes side, he sent a message to his club. His club agreed immediately. Who would refuse such a good thing that dropped down on them like a pie in the sky? They would have to arrange training matches anyway, and it was great that they could play several such high-quality training matches. Theyd all already reached this juncture, and there was nothing to hide. Getting familiar with their opponents ahead of time was far more cost-effective than going into the arena blindfolded. Wei Xiao also sent a message to Lu Feng. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao acted well-behaved. Praise me! Lu Feng: Awesome. How was that acceptable? Wei Xiao continued, Not enough! Lu Feng: Well talk about it when youre back. Wei Xiaos heart was sweet and delighted. I want more of what happened last night. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: Like this and that, then that. Lu Feng: Okay. Just one word was enough to make Wei Xiaos face heat up. He couldnt say any more flirty words, and just wanted to fly back and kiss his boyfriend. There was no time like the present. They would start that night. Just when everyone had settled on a time, arranged the training rooms, and finalized the lottery system Wei Xiao suddenly spoke up, Speaking of which Everyone looked at him, fearing that he might come up with some other chaos! Wei Xiao really was able to stir things up again in a big way. How could we forget about Captain Yan! Yuan Ze: Kim Sung-hyun: Xie He: There was really no need, it was fine to forget him! Wei Little Xiao was really a cub who focused on fairness. He said quickly, Wait a minute, Ill ask Captain Yan. What if he wants to move in and live here too? The three people from the Team of Gods: Youre overthinking it! Its impossible! Wei Xiao: Let me ask. If hes interested, we can add Y1 into the cycle. Hey, they could play another two games. He was really a very unassuming little genius! Yuan Ze: You Kim Sung-hyun: Shouldnt Xie He: Waste time. The way this sentence connected really reflected how they were old teammates. Wei Xiao had already sent Yan Jiang a message. His hand speed was fast, rapidly typing out a whole string of words. A few seconds later, Wei Xiao spoke cheerfully, All done! Yuan & Kim & Xie: ??? Wei Xiao raised up his cell phone and showed them directly. Captain Yan, its like this Blah blah blah, 100 words omitted here, Do you want to come join us? The top two teams can live at the old FTW base for free! Below that was Yan Jiangs reply, a single, simple word. Okay. Everyone who came to know this piece of news, He agreed? Yan Jiang agreed? The person who was entirely removed from the world, who would be unaffected by the destruction of the earth, the Laozi who only thought of the beautiful and unique Y1, had actually come to join in on this sand sculpture fun? The author has something to say: Wei Little Xiao: When it comes to badass operations, if I cant do it, then who can! Chapter 216.1: Dropping trash talk before the game? They really had to respect Little Lunatic Wei! Everyone had difficulty believing it all the way until Y1s van pulled into the base. Wei Xiao took the lead in welcoming them, his smile sunny as he greeted them. Yan Jiang was the third person to get out of the van. He was stunned for a brief moment when he saw Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: Good evening, Captain Yan! Yan Jiang: Hello. Wei Xiao: Have you had dinner? Wei Xiao continued before Yan Jiang could answer, If you havent eaten, preparations have been made at the base. You can eat first if you want. Yan Jiang: Ive eaten. Wei Xiao led them inside. Alright, then. Lets quickly get started, theres a lot of games to play! It just so happened that FTW had arrived at this time, too. The old and new bases were close to each other, and walking over was a good way to help digest after their meal. Ning Zhehans spirit had left his body from the moment he had received news of their training matches. Brother Le, I didnt hear wrong, right? L&P, EVE, Pro, Y1? Were going to play a round robin competition with them at the old base?? Last years global top four are going to accompany us to train? Yue Wenle crunched and nodded. Ning Zhehan snatched away the potato chips in his hand. There was a crunching sound. Holy shit, Im so nervous! How the hell was this a training match? This was a rehearsal for the global games! Wei Xiaos eyes were sharp, and he spotted Lu Feng from a distance. He was no longer in a hurry to enter the building. Instead, he hurriedly waved his hand. Captain, over here! If he had greeted Y1 with a sunny smile, then at this time, his smile was so full of vitality that it shone in all directions, bright enough to blind people! Did he have to go so far with his captain, who he could see at any time with easeCCthis was what everyone from Y1 thoughtCCthe two captains were both cold air generators, but the Y1 members would never dare to act so enthusiastically towards their own captain. Lu Feng noticed the members of Y1 when he came over and nodded in greeting. His attitude was polite and distant, but human emotion appeared for a brief instant in those cold, black eyes when he looked at Wei Xiao. With this contrast, the members of Y1 got it: No wonder Quiet was so daring. It turned out that the great demon king indulged him. Yan Jiang never showed his anger or happiness, and there was no sense of nostalgia or sadness about revisiting his old home to be seen on his face. There was just an aura of unchanging calm that could persist for millions of years. No one knew what he was thinking, just like how no one knew that the fragmented Team of Gods would reunite with FTW in this way three years later. Yan Jiang, Yuan Ze, Xie He, Kim Sung-hyun, Lu Feng. They were once the five most dazzling players in the China competition zone. Theyd experienced splitting up, confusion, torment, and ups and downs, only to return to the place where their dreams had begun. All they could feel was that while material things remained the same, the people involved had changed. The base was still the same base. But the people whod been in it had scattered. Five teams. That was 25 people even if they only counted the starters. Xiang Liu had led some people over and had started making arrangements early on. The base had two large training rooms and a conference room, which was just enough for their use. With five teams, there could only be two pairs of two fighting at any one time. The remaining team would have to wait out a game, and this was what the conference room was for. Of course, they could also go and watch the game directly in the training rooms. Xiang Liu had also made arrangements for each teams entourage. Drinks and snacks had been transported over from the base early on and placed where they could be obtained easily so that everyone could eat and drink as they wished. Brother Liu was very steady when handling such things. There was no need for the players to concern themselves at all as hed already made thorough arrangements. The schedule for matches was also listed and put up. Five teams playing two round robin cycles meant that there would be quite a few games. Each game would last around 40 minutes, and it would be enough for them to play all the way until the next day. However, everyone was in high spirits, and let alone playing until the second day, even playing until the third day wouldnt be much of a problem. There was no need for an exchange of greetings with so many people present, and they started playing directly. The first game in Training Room A was FTW vs L&P; Training Room B was EVE vs Pro. Y1 would just be watching the games for the time being. Wei Xiao felt a bit regretful about this. Yuan Ze noticed. What, you dont want to fight with me? Wei Xiao sighed. Yuan Ze: Scared of me? Wei Xiao: Last years champion team is here, but we have to start off with the runner-up team. How could I not be regretful? Yuan Ze: Gary, who understood Chinese: Quiet, youre dead for sure! Wei Xiao comforted himself, According to the rules, the opening game should be between the champions and the runner-ups. Looking at it that way, if youre the runner-ups, then are we the champions? The implication was that theyd already locked in this years global championship! Everyone in the training room who understood Chinese: Dropping trash talk before the game? They really had to respect Little Lunatic Wei! Old G was successfully enraged and swore a hard oath. If he didnt win this game, then hed write his name upside down! This was the effect that Wei Xiao wanted. He wanted to really fight! They had to play all out with such a good opportunity! Y1 was watching the games. They chose to stay in Training Room A. Little Ning was nervous enough to explode. As soon as he thought of how the person sitting behind him was Yan Jiang from the champion team from last year, the legendary Y1, he had difficulty holding the mouse in his hand! Wei Xiao was different. He turned back. Captain Yan, come over here. Yan Jiang didnt reply. Wei Xiaos lips curved, Witness how I screw over Old G. Gary: Yuan Ze rolled his eyes. Enough He choked before he could finish speaking, because Yan Jiang really did slide his e-sports chair over to sit behind Wei Xiao. The dozen plus people in the room: This favoritism was too obvious! Even Y1s jungler was jealous! Oh, and FTWs top-laner was also jealous. Wei Xiao was keenly aware of his captains attitude from where he sat to his left and spoke quickly, God Hai (Y1s jungler), dont be jealous, Im not snatching away your captain. Look, I have my own captain! His desire for survival was very strong. His words may be telling Hai not to be jealous, but in fact, he was coaxing his own boyfriend. Hais Chinese was average. He only understood half of what he heard and cluelessly looked over at his own captain. How would Yan Jiang be willing to explain it to him? Wei Xiao didnt say it again in English. He was saying it for his own boyfriend to hear, so there was no need to translate it! Lu Feng: The shadow thief has been let out. One sentence was enough to clear away all of Wei Xiaos thoughts. L&P hadnt banned the shadow thief in round one and had boldly released it out to play. Chen Feng: Lock it in. They were in one training room, and everyone was facing each other. There was no need to communicate too much during the BP segment. Although there was a prize for winning, it was still a training match. No matter how seriously it was played, it still couldnt be compared with the real competition. Wei Xiao asked L&P directly, You guys are that confident? Old G: Are you taking it or not? If you dont want it, Ill take it! It just so happened that Wei Xiao was in the first position. He locked it in directly. Gary: Watch me hammer you to bits. He snatched up the death knight as he spoke. It seemed that he planned to use the death knight as a jungler talent. Speaking of which, the death knight had quite an advantage against the shadow thief. It had many control skills and could stack up to multi-layer control with its combos. As long as it could send the shadow thief flying, it would be an easy matter for the death knight to interrupt the light arcs. L&P was determined to suppress Wei Xiao to death. Gary took the death knight, and Yuan Ze took the blood warrior. They didnt leave even a tiny path for the shadow thief to survive. Compared with the death knight, the blood warrior really had an advantage over the shadow thief. Its ultimate move gave it immunity for two seconds. No matter how many light arcs the other side brushed out, they would hit empty air when they landed on the blood warrior. By the time the shadow thief landed, the blood warriors blood stab combined with its blood cut was enough to send the shadow thief back to the resurrection fountain. Wei Xiao tsked. You guys are bullying me! Yan Jiang: Elemental shaman. In order to fight back in such a situation, FTW could take the elemental shaman. If it was used well, not only could it provide escort for the shadow thief, it could also deal with the death knights forced control. Bai Cais scalp tensed up when he heard this: Oh no, not everyones elemental shaman is as strong as yours, hey! Lu Feng: No need, give me the shadow thief. They were all in the same training room, and everyone could hear this voice that was neither loud nor quiet. Old G, who was on the other side, Ah? Little Lunatic Wei, youre not playing jungler? I am, Wei Xiao took the gun thief, Laozis gonna kill you. A line-up that they hadnt found a chance to use during the entire domestic competition could finally be used at this time. Who said that the shadow thief had to be used by the jungler? It could be used in the top lane and still beat the other side into seclusion! There was no way for L&P to switch. The death knight would have an easy time fighting against the shadow thief in the early stages, but the blood warrior couldnt be used as a jungler. It was too ineffective and would affect the rhythm of the game, so Yuan Ze could only stick with the blood warrior. The blood warrior before level six Could only be strung up and beaten to death by Close. No matter what, based on the BP segment of the first match, FTW didnt have much to worry about! Brother Cai cautiously picked through the support options and finally still chose to take the holy priest. It wasnt that he didnt want to use the elemental shaman, but that L&P had banned it. It wasnt his fault, really! Compared with other teams, FTW could be considered quite familiar with L&P. But Little Ning was still a little nervous at the start and ended up being suppressed by VIVI for a few rounds of lane soldiers. Later, Wei Xiao came over to pick on VIVI several times, helping Little Ning find his courage again. He started moving around to provide support. Due to their advantage from the BP, L&P was very steady prior to reaching level six and didnt take much action. On the other hand, FTW didnt want to remain timid. If not now, then when should they start? Any person they could take down was better than none. After helping Ning Zhehan, Wei Xiao pretended to go to the bottom lane while in fact, he turned around and went to the top lane instead. Everyone wore soundproof headphones once the game began. As long as they didnt speak in a roar, it wouldnt be possible to hear what the other side was saying. Of course, they could hear each other if they took off their headphones, but there was no need; this was just a training match, and doing such a thing was too much of a low blow. No one spoke to the players after the game began. Yan Jiang also just sat at the side and watched. Wei Xiao was using the gun thief, which tended towards being a toolman jungler. He didnt need a high amount of farm to still deal considerable damage and control. It was a bit similar to the power thief. Using the shadow thief for the top lane meant that FTW still needed a team fight starter. The gun thief happened to be a strong talent for starting group fights, making up for the shadow thiefs shortcomings. At the same time, it was also very suited to leading the game rhythm. FTW had played with this line-up many times, and theyd hammered the domestic teams into bits every time. This was precisely why they would never release the shadow thief in official games. The little lunatics shadow thief could still be provoked for a bit. The great demon kings shadow thiefCCit had to be shown 100% respect! Chapter 216.2: Exactly what the hell were they doing! Yuan Ze was an old pro, and he was very sharp. Wei Xiao had clearly shown himself heading down on the minimap, but Yuan Ze didnt relax his vigilance at all. He was very on point with his positioning and skillfully adjusted his lane soldiers in order to prevent Wei Xiao from being able to attack and stab him. Wei Xiao tsked. Really annoying! Lu Feng: Attack. His voice had just fallen when the shadow thief charged up with a shadow attack, rushing straight at the blood warrior. The blood warrior immediately called out his phantoms, sending them right into Wei Xiaos direction. This level of alertness was just like hed opened up a perspective hack! But Wei Xiao didnt panic. After avoiding the phantom, he aimed and stabbed his gun at Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze made use of a lane soldier to adjust his positioning, stabbing at Lu Feng after avoiding the attack. Lu Feng didnt shrink away. He took the damage in order to move behind the blood warrior, stabbing with his shadow blade and causing a splash of blood to fly out. Both of them were hit into a half health state at the same time. Wei Xiao leapt up with his gun, landing accurately on Yuan Ze when he fell. At the moment when he bounced up, the shadow thiefs flying blade stacked up with his shadow attack and the extra bonus from an attack launched from behind, ensuring that Yuan Ze couldnt move. System AnnouncementCC First Blood. LU killed Marshal. Wei Xiao, whod gotten an easy assist, was delighted. Captain, youre amazing! Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: Im amazing too! Even with the sound insulation, Yuan Ze was able to hear the proud tone in this crazy bragging! Gary: Captain, dont panic. Im coming. Yuan Zes tone wasnt good, Like hell youre coming. At the bottom lane, Old G cooperated with his own marksman to take down a double kill, so L&P hadnt made a loss in this wave. However, killing others wasnt what Old G wanted. He wanted to mess with the little lunatic and great demon king. When it came to a top-jungler battle, who had the strongest linkage? Old G didnt plan on giving up this title. By the time the blood warrior reached level six, the shadow thief started losing its advantage. FTW decisively switched lanes. Close, whod just arrived at the bottom lane, caught a flaw in bottom lane AAs defenses, and charged right into his face with nine light arcs. Support player MO gave everything he had, shields, healing, and buffs, but was still unable to save the pitiful AA. The situation changed again, with the balance tilting towards FTW. AA: Captain! Yuan Ze: Switch. Since FTW switched lanes, they would, too. The shadow thief shouldnt even think of getting rid of the blood warrior. Wei Xiao disdained Yuan Ze. Are you a sticky toffee candy? Sticking to my captain like this. After saying so, he made a sudden attack on the bottom lane and continued to mess with Yuan Ze. The two sides fought back and forth during the game, but neither side obtained any absolute advantages. Chen Feng glanced at Yan Jiang out of the corner of his eye, trying to read some emotion from his expression. Unfortunately. Even old teammates were unable to see through this fellow. Hed been aloof and unfathomable three years ago, and now, he was even more mysterious. Even ghosts wouldnt know what he was thinking. But one thing was certain. Yan Jiang attached great importance to Wei Xiao. Although Chen Feng didnt know what exactly it was he liked about Wei XiaoCCmainly because this brat had too many unique points, and it was difficult to ascertain. Chen Feng looked back at Wei Xiao, his heart warming. This stinky brat was really likable, and he attracted all sorts of people. He was more than half responsible for this roomful of people getting together. In fact, Chen Feng understood that this so-called living at FTW held some attraction, but it wasnt such a deep obsession. They had agreed to this entertainment game more for the sake of the past FTW, and also for the present Close. The unspeakable past from three years ago. This past from three years ago that still was hard to look back on. Regardless of whether it was guilt or regret, they were all unable to say it. Young pride that stabbed and hurt the people closest to them. Regret that couldnt be fixed, and the past that couldnt be made up for. They could only tell each other about it through this most familiar battle. Growth, experience. Hoping everyone could walk on in glory and face the darkness. In the first game, FTW won by a narrow margin. Wei Xiao took off his headphones and wasnt polite about his disdain. Old G, can you do it or not? Old G: Im going to go f*ck your mothers name upside down! Wei Xiao: Werent you going to pick on the shadow thief? Come on, do it. Yuan Ze: Someone picked up the thread of the conversation, Come on. Wei Xiao turned his head. The one whod spoken was Yan Jiang. Yan Jiang got up and walked over to Yuan Zes side. Well release the shadow thief for you. He said this to FTW. The next game was FTW against Y1. L&P quickly made way, and even gloated a little. Gary said, Little Lunatic Q, youll have to seek your own fortune! Wei Xiao would never back down or lose. Dont worry, Im always lucky! It hadnt been easy for Gary to finally understand an idiom, but he was unable to quip back after that retort. He turned back to look at Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze had gone over to where Yan Jiang had been seated before. He said evenly, Come on, let me see how miserable your luck is. Wei Xiao wasnt as polite to him as he was to Yan Jiang. He turned back warily, Dont try to steal my techniques. Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao pointed to himself and Lu Feng, then pointed to the two of them. Top-jungler, e-sports competitors, got it? Yuan Ze: I got your daddy! Although Wei Xiao disdained him, he didnt really drive him away. Yuan Ze had thick skin. What was one or two sentences? He sat and settled himself in very firmly, insisting on seeing all the ways that Wei Xiao would die, die, and die. Y1 really did release the shadow thief. Chen Feng hesitated briefly. Wei Xiao: Take it! Ill use it! Chen Feng: Wei Xiao: Captain Yan, whatever tricks you have, just use them all on me. Im not scared! Not only was he not scared, he was completely excited, okay! Yuan Ze was too lazy to disparage him. Chen Fengs concerns were more practical. Yan Jiang certainly wouldnt just talk big. For him to release the shadow thief meant that he had ways to target it. What did the shadow thief mean for FTW? It was a killer ace, it was confidence, and it was a magic treasure that ensured wins. This kind of thing was rather metaphysical. When the belief wasnt broken, the whole teams morale would increase greatly, and looking at the shadow thief was like seeing the dawn of victory. This invisible bonus for the whole team could not be underestimated. Once this belief was broken, there would be no more special effect. Chen Feng didnt want it to break in such an insignificant training match. But this opportunity was placed right in front of them. If they didnt give it a try not and waited until the official competition, they wouldnt even have an opportunity to cry over their regrets Alright, then. He didnt have to think so much about it. Wei Xiao was in the first position and snatched it up in a way that could only be described as quickly and cleanly. Chen Feng sighed and tried to gain other opportunities for the team through BP. He only hoped that they wouldnt lose too miserably. Wei Xiao obviously planned to use the shadow thief himself. Lu Feng didnt say much and took the divine warrior. The divine warrior was a support type top-lane. It was clear that he planned to protect the shadow thief. Was Wei Xiao not afraid at all? He really was a little scared. But his fear was different from other peoples. Chen Feng was afraid that FTWs shadow thief would collapse, and he was afraid that Wei Xiao would go into seclusion. He was afraid that he wouldnt be able to achieve results with the shadow thief throughout the whole official competition. Wei Xiao was only afraid of Lu Feng. It was fine if he lost, and it was okay if he fell for various tricks. It was alright if he was beaten into collapse. But it couldnt be Lu Feng. It couldnt be Closes shadow thief who was targeted into collapse by Yan Jiang. So, he insta-locked the shadow thief. As long as it was himself, then he wasnt scared of any heaven or earth! Yan Jiang took the elemental shaman, Y1s jungler Hai used the berserker thief, and the top-laner took the blood warrior. It was clearly a jungler core line-up and was very impolite about targeting the shadow thief. What made it more interesting was that when L&P was targeting FTW, Yan Jiang had suggested that FTW use the elemental shaman. In this game, Y1 was targeting FTW and still using the elemental shaman. The elemental shaman could support the shadow thief until it rose to the heavens, and it could also drag the shadow thief down from the sky until it had to be dug up from under the ground. The fight at the old FTW base was burning hot with passion, but they didnt know that the internet was trembling and quaking. The keywords that were trending on hot search were so exciting that it made all the glory fans click on itCCthe Team of Gods were gathering at FTW! At first, everyone thought that it was click bait. But their chins all dropped when they went in! There was a candid photo that was like the real hammer of truth. There were four vans in FTWs parking lot. They all had official game decals, and they were each printed with the team logos. Y1, EVE, L&P, Pro. Why had last years global top four gathered at FTW? Was it a feud or was it a scene dripping with dog blood? Was it real people PK or was it a bloody battle between teams? The Team of Gods, who would die before communicating with each other, had actually gotten together under the same roof? Without mentioning anything else, the FTW fans were all crying one after the other. The trending topics exploded. Their misery during those years was matched with their feelings of distress right now. The Team of Gods fans who had laid down their banners and ceased their activity all revealed themselves and started talking about the old days. What exactly were they doing? Exactly what the hell were they doing! The entire network was curious and really wished they could sneak over to find out. The reason why the whereabouts of the Team of Gods had been exposed wasnt due to FTWs internal staff, but because of the paparazzi who followed the teams closely. Someone had always been watching the teams ever since EVE and Y1 had settled in. At the end of the day, they were global star players, and anything they could catch on camera would bring in traffic. Paying attention to them was too worthwhile. Who couldve known that they would be able to get such breaking news when their original intention had been to sneak in some private photos of God Xie?! For a while, even the big capital daddies were startled. What was going on? Training match? Would it be convenient for them to stream it? There were sky high sponsorship fees at stake here! The author has something to say: Hehe Chapter 217.1: Lulus big brothers are showing him respect! Opening a live stream was impossible, no matter how much money was offered. This kind of internal training competition had to be kept a secret in order to have any value. Once it was broadcast live to the public, it would become an entertainment game. These five teams werent the only teams in the global competition. The champion teams from other competition zones would also be watching. If it was broadcast live, then they would have to choose between exposing tactics or entertaining the public. Nobody wanted the former to happen, and the latter had no meaning when it came to training. Little Lunatic Wei had racked his brains (not really) in order to get the top four teams to practice with him. It was something that would be difficult to buy even with money! Xiang Liu didnt bother Lu Feng with this matter and refused directly. The other side thought that it was because they hadnt offered enough money and continued increasing the price. Xiang Liu resolutely refused while covering up a heart that was bleeding from the loss of profits. Brother Liu wiped away his sweat after hanging up the phone. Wei Xiao really was a genius. One set of flashy operations affected so many peoples hearts, livers, lungs, stomachs, spleens, and kidneys! Without mentioning what was happening inside the training rooms, the countless people outside the training room all felt really aggrieved. The capital daddies looked at the popularity on Weibo, and their money bags itched. Glorys old fans, new fans, passer-by fans, all these fans were looking forward to it and their hearts couldnt help but itch unbearably. However The live broadcast didnt turn on, and the paparazzi couldnt get in. They couldnt see anything! The more they couldnt see it, the more their hearts itched. There would always be more of a commotion when they couldnt obtain something. The popularity rose higher and higher, and there were many (talented) people poking their heads out as short stories emerged ceaselessly. Someone guessed, It must be the top four who wanted to play training matches and borrowed space from FTW. Who doesnt know about how big the training rooms are and how good the equipment is at the FTW base? Shit, where does FTW get all that money from? Lu Fengs competition results arent that good, but he really has some ability to make money. He should retire early and make way for others. Wouldnt it be good to focus on capital? That last sentence was very provocative. Theres no need to repeat the back and forth that came after. But many people agreed with this idea. This must be the case. At the end of the day, arent these four teams the ones wholl be competing for the championship this year? Making an appointment early is a way to get warmed up. FTW is miserable, too. Its been three years, yet they still have to serve those big daddies. Dont come back after youve already left, hey! What a group of dogs! There were also people who spoke the truth, Theres definitely training matches, but I dont believe that its only between the top four. Our FTW must be among them. A training session between five teams, with the top four as accompanying trainers! Its a group of big brothers showing Lulu respect! Although it was the truth, this suggestion was the one that got flamed the worstCC Stop dreaming, okay? Even fanfiction isnt as daring as you. Heres a pen, you go for it! What are you thinking? Dont be naive. And youre even calling them big brothers big brothers who stab people to death? Whoever wants this kind of big brother can just take them. The great demon king doesnt need this kind of thing! Unfortunately, the melon eating crowd were doomed to be unable to eat this delicious melon. FTW and Y1 both entered the game after selecting their line-ups. Wei Xiao was nervous, alert, and combat-ready. This was last years championship team. This was one of the strongest teams in the world. This was Yan Jiang, who was even more difficult to figure out than Fu Li! Wei Xiao was excited. He was looking forward to facing a strong enemy, looking forward to having a full-on duel, and more importantly, he was also looking forward to climbing over mountains that others couldnt conquer! There are 30 seconds before the enemy reaches the battlefield! The system voice rang out. A fierce battle was imminent! Bai Cai: Go into their jungle? Wei Xiao: Of course. Brother Cai followed him, and they aimed at the other sides blue jungle zone. FTW positioned themselves in a zigzag manner before the lane soldiers arrived, spreading out their vision across the game. The berserker thief was a hero who was strong at leading the rhythm in the early stages. Going into the opposite sides jungle was a matter of course, and what FTW had to do now was to take a gamble. Thats right, a gamble. The type that depended on luck. In the early stages, there was no way for the shadow thief to fight against the berserker thief. If the two met, then the shadow thief would have to either run or die. Hiding in their own jungle zone wasnt an option, either. If they really let the berserker thief have the leisure to clean out the opposite jungle zone, then the shadow thief would be even slower to reach level six, prolonging the early stage of the game. Once the other side started a snowball effect, then the whole game would be lost. So, the shadow thief also had to go into the opposing sides jungle. Why was this based on luck? This all depended on whether or not they could stagger jungle zones with the crazy thief. The canyon held upper and lower jungle zones. If the berserker thief entered FTWs upper jungle zone, and the shadow thief went to Y1s lower jungle zone, then they would be perfectly staggered. An even exchange of resources meant that the shadow thief wouldve earned in this transaction. If the berserker thief entered FTWs top jungle zone while the shadow thief attempted to enter Y1s top jungle zone, then they would meet at the river, and there would be big trouble! Couldnt their choices be predicted? It was really difficult. For example, if Y1s jungler Hai predicted that the shadow thief would start with the blue buff, then went into FTWs top jungle zone. And Wei Xiao predicted Hais prediction, then deliberately went to the bottom jungle zone. Then, Hai once again predicted Wei Xiaos prediction, changing directions towards the bottom jungle zone Opening up a row of Matryoshka dolls was useless. They could only gamble! Wei Xiaos luck was pretty good. He and Brother Cai didnt find any trace of the berserker thief on their way to the red jungle zone. Brother Cai felt a little strained. Will they ambush us? Wei Xiao: They shouldnt. The game had just started. Clearing the jungle and grabbing resources was more cost-effective than deliberately ganking. However Wei Xiao directly used a shadow attack on the red buff in order to speed up his jungle clearing speed. We still have to hurry up and ensure that they dont surround us. They didnt need to gank them, but they could encircle them. Y1 must have entered their blue buff jungle zone. As soon as they saw that no-one was there, they would basically have guessed what path Wei Xiao took. As long as they were able to clear out the jungle zone one step faster, then Wei Xiao and Bai Cai wouldnt be able to escape. So, Wei Xiao wanted to finish off this wave of jungle creeps before Hai did, then retreat in a flash! Wei Xiaos ideas werent bad, and he was also very quick at clearing the jungle. However, when he withdrew from Y1s red jungle zone and arrived at the riverCC Brother Cai sucked in a breath, Old Wei! Wei Xiao didnt need his reminder and was already shifting his positioning to avoid the totem. Unfortunately, the elemental shamans totem wasnt aimed at him, but rather at Bai Cai, who was in front of him to the left. Brother Cai: ! There was nothing Wei Xiao could do about this, and nothing Bai Cai himself could do about it. He was a basically naked holy priest, and healing himself for the small amount that he could wouldnt be enough for the berserker thief to even play around with. At the moment when the elemental shaman controlled the holy priest, the berserker thief had already made use of the insect creep behind them to launch himself forward, locking his scythe accurately around the holy priests throat. Brother Cai flew off into the distance. Hai took First Blood! Although the player hed killed was FTWs support position, the gold bonus from getting First Blood was considerable. Wei Xiao managed to escape and sucked in a breath lightly. We have to go over the replay properly here. How had the elemental shaman and berserker thief arrived so quickly? And theyd bypassed the vision area that Ning Zhehan could see in the mid-lane. Hed already cleared his jungle zone at the fastest possible speed, so why had Yan Jiang been able to block them? They would only be able to find the answer in the replay. Brother Cai was the type who would be strong when faced with the weak and cower when faced with the strong. Hed always been a little afraid of Yan Jiang, and now that he was going up against him directly, he was a bit cautious and hesitant. Wei Xiao knew him well. Lets try the berserker thief and elemental shaman together later. Brother Cai trembled. Wei Xiao: If we cant get the same effect as Captain Yan, Ill beat you to death. Bai Cai: Yep, in order to deal with Brother Cai, one needed to be fiercer than their opponents. This way, hed be afraid of his teammates and unafraid of his opponents. Brother Xiao was really worthy of being the little wifes true love jungler king. He had one trick after another when it came to training him up. Bai Cai sat up straight. Lets finish this game first! The holy priest soon resurrected and arrived back at Wei Xiaos side. Although theyd only lost a support, this was in fact the beginning of their collapse. Y1s operation ability was really strong and worthy of envy. Theyd killed Brother Cai, and although they let Wei Xiao go, it had managed to reduce Wei Xiaos jungle clearing speed. After taking First Blood and clearing out their jungle zone first, Y1 had already arranged vision over the dragon pit. The first little silver dragon that appeared in the canyon was of great strategic importance. If they could take it down, then the whole team would quickly rise up to level six. Y1s entire team would be at level six, while FTW still hovered at level 4 and 5. What would this mean? It meant that the five people in Y1 would have ultimate moves while no one in FTW did! If all three of FTWs lanes collapsed in the later stages, then Bai Cais death would play out just as Yan Jiang had predicted. As a bystander, Chen Feng could see this very clearly. Why did some people call TPT a mini Y1? It was because both teams were strong operationally and would scheme endlessly from beginning to the end. TPTs flaw was that they were unable to suppress Close, and the overall quality of the teams players was slightly weaker than FTW. Additionally, Fu Li was their mid-laner, and his overview of the situation was far less broad compared with Yan Jiang. So, TPT had lost the finals. But Y1 was different. Top-laner Dxrus played the blood warrior very well and could stably trade attacks with Close while controlling the lane soldiers. Lu Feng had taken a divine warrior, which tended towards support, and it was difficult for him to kill Dxrus. Of course, he also wouldnt be suppressed; it was just that he wouldnt be able to find the opportunity to explore the jungle zone vision. Mid-laner Quas was able to string Ning Zhehan along. Quas was a gentle looking Caucasian fellow with smiling eyes. He looked easy going and spoke like that big brother next door. However, he was famous for his black-bellied play style in the mid-lane. He wasnt like a prickly thorn, wasnt the type to face off directly, and he didnt poke from a distance; he was black-bellied. He smiled so harmlessly, and seemed so righteous and harmonious when clearing the lane, but once you fell into his trap, then youd be left without even your bones. After all, he was someone that Yan Jiang had trained up himself. If he didnt have this level of ability, hed have been sent to the water dispenser a long time ago. When jungler Hai first made his debut, the Europeans had called him Little Close. Hais original ID had started with the letter C. It was because others had called him that that he changed his ID name. It was said that he was like Close, but that naturally wasnt all because of his ID. It was because of his play style. Silent, fierce, and unexpected; he could lead the rhythm of the game across the whole map. Every time Y1 played a game with the jungler as core, it would give people a sense of the Team of GodsCC Push fast and push hard while maintaining their advantage the whole way through. Chapter 217.2: Aced! Bottom lanes Piglet was Y1s gentle and responsible one. Although he looked tall, built, and even a bit fierce, he revealed his balanced temperament every time he opened his mouth. His voice was soothing, gentle, and polite. He could take care of himself even when left on his own in the bottom lane, and when there were two of them, he could take off and fly up to the heavens. When he grouped up into a team of three, then it was like a team pushing engine. He was a player who could fight and avoid battle, who was good at the early stages and could also keep himself stable until the late stages. He was balanced in all aspects and was a very high quality player. This was last years global championship team, the ceiling for Glorys strength, and they were a truly strong team for which no flaws could be found. Unsurprisingly, FTW lost the fight for the small silver dragon. When faced with Y1 who had all reached level 6, FTW could only attempt to avoid all of their attacks. They cleared out their lanes from beneath their towers, and their jungle zones had been taken over. The gap in farm gradually increased. Bai Cai gritted his teeth. I cant find any breakthrough points. Wei Xiao was finally able to pick up the river crab creep and snatch up some farm. Ill be level six soon. Bai Cai: Try a wave of suppression in the mid-lane? Wei Xiao: Bottom lane. Ning Zhehan had no way to go and provide support. If they didnt pay attention to the bottom lane soon, then Yue Wenle was going to collapse. Bai Cai nodded. Okay! The shadow thief reached level six! It was as though the other side had known that they would come. When Wei Xiao and Bai Cai arrived at the bottom lane, the berserker thief tossed out a scythe. Wei Xiaos heart quivered. Brother Cai was more aware this round and positioned himself in front of Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: Not bad, Old Bai. His hands never stopped as he spoke, launching and stacking a combo of shadow attacks and assaults. The DPS ratio was already set up, and the light arcs were about to fill up the sky suddenly, there was a crisp bang. The shadow thief who was about to take off was shot down, the stacked damage was interrupted, and the light arcs were scattered! Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. Yuan Zes eyebrows raised up slightly from where he sat beside him, his dark eyes heated as he stared at the screen. This wave of operations was enough to shake the chins off half of the professional players in the circle if it were to be clipped and released. The elemental shamans totems had been tossed out too fiercely. That forced control totem made by trading in his own health was launched with finesse as fine as a strand of hair. Only Yan Jiang would dare to use it, and he managed to use it accurately, beating down the shadow thief from an almost impossible angle! Wei Xiao wasnt any ordinary player, either. Even if his combo was interrupted and he was caught unprepared, he was still able to stop the loss in time. Eight light arcs couldnt be brushed out, but seven were still possible. He retreated and went for the second best option, stacking up seven light arcs at the last moment. Even if it was just seven light arcs, even if the shadow thief was low levelled and had insufficient equipment, this attack still dealt considerable damage. After all, they were still in the early stage of the game, and everyone had limited health. The berserker thief lost half of his health bar to the move. Bai Cai managed to survive and quickly healed himself. Wei Xiao: Withdraw. It was impossible for them to try and fight. The berserker thief could deal continuous DPS, while the shadow thief needed a small recovery period after brushing out its light arcs. It was enough to be able to avoid death or injury without sending out a kill. Although he was reckless, and although he could get in over his head, Yue Wenle was most willing to listen to Wei Xiao. Yue Wenle had already started pulling away from their opponent with that one word. However, Y1 didnt intend to let them off. The berserker thief shifted and burst in, using his scythe to lock in on him. Bai Cai shuddered, I think I Sure enough, he was unable to dodge. This scythe was so accurate it made his scalp go numb. Bai Cais heart pounded. You guys go! If he was going to die, then so be it. It was better for him to die than for Wei Xiao or Yue Wenle to die. Wei Xiao had the feeling that something was off. He called out, Old Yue But it was too late. The berserker thiefs target wasnt Bai Cai at all. He used Brother Cai as the springboard and locked in on Yue Wenle, who had limited mobility. Yue Wenle hadnt hesitated with his retreat, and there had been no delay, but he couldnt stop the berserker thief from leaping to a spot behind Bai Cai, then to the big treasure Bai Cai was protecting behind him. Another scythe, launched at the maximum distance, locked into both people at the same time. Yue Wenle: Wei Xiao gritted his teeth, DPS! Yue Wenle reacted quickly and had already started to release skills. He was able to deal out the maximum amount of damage he could before he died. Bai Cai also knew that he wouldnt be able to get away. He tossed out a bubble tune to try and control the berserker thief, but unfortunately, the berserker thief who had no teammates close by wasnt afraid of this 0.1 second of control. Once his berserker mode started up, he was able to tear up any squishy talents in an instant. Wei Xiao was too far away for the berserker thief to hook into him. However, how could he not try his best to recover this loss after seeing that Bai Cai and Yue Wenle were going to die? At the moment when the berserker thief used up all his skills, Wei Xiao launched his attack. He avoided the damage from Y1s marksman and stabbed out a critical hit from behind. The berserker thief who only had one third of his health left fell to the ground. Two for one Although it was a loss, but No, wait! Wei Xiao sucked in a breath, then used up all of his movement skills to escape the berserker thiefs scythe. The berserker thief hadnt died? He had. But hed resurrected again! One second before Wei Xiao killed him, the elemental shaman in the distance had used up almost all of his health to create a resurrection totem. The berserker thiefs health had emptied out just as the totem landed. His empty health bar triggered a resurrection, and the berserker thief stood back up again. If Wei Xiao hadnt avoided it quickly and had been locked in by his scythe, then he wouldve been killed on the spot by Y1s marksman. In this round of fighting at the bottom lane. FTW suffered heavy losses! This was the global championship team, this was Y1, this was the supernova team trained up by Y1! When faced with such a downwind, Wei Xiao didnt grow depressed. Instead, his fighting spirit soared to unprecedented highs. Y1 wasnt just going through the motions. Yan Jiang wasnt underestimating his opponents. They respected FTW and were using their real strength. Then, how could FTW not go all out! Chen Feng sat at the sofa of the training room, his heart calm. There was a definite gap in strength and experience. Even their levels of confidence were as different as heaven and earth. But They didnt panic. Growth was an uphill battle. It was a difficult road to walk, but only by doing this could they see the scenery at the top of the mountain. Chen Feng believed in todays FTW, believed in the little ones, and he believed that they could walk and explore a path that belonged to them! Y1 did what L&P couldnt do in the last game. They suppressed the shadow thief and didnt give Wei Xiao any chance to breathe. The elemental shaman interrupted the light arcs. His DPS was constrained by the berserker thief. The mid, bottom, and top lanes all had airtight formations, and Wei Xiao seemed to be running into walls everywhere. A real routine wasnt a routine. Y1s play style was simple and rough. They relied on brute strength, and if this was what the game was like, then there wouldve been no problem opening up a live stream. If anyone was able to play out this effect? Then they could take the championship trophy and go home with it! Was FTW finished for good? No. They hadnt given up yet. None of them could give up! Even Salted Fish Bai had built up courage. There was too much oppression, too much fire! When had Little Lunatic Wei ever suffered such grievances before! Brother Cai was angry! 28 minutes into the game, there was a 6000 gold difference in farm between the two sides. At first glance, this number sounded terrible. But in fact, it wasnt so bad. When shared amongst the five members of the team, it meant that each of them were half a piece of finished equipment short. Wei Xiao had worked very hard to ensure that his farm didnt fall behind too much so that it wouldnt be too big of a problem to try and cut down c-positions. Lu Feng had given up some of his resources to Wei Xiao. Although it meant that he was a bit short, the divine warrior was more of a functional talent and could still be effective with low farm. If they kept dragging the game out like this, then Y1 would nibble away at them and win the game. Was it going to end like this? Impossible! Wei Xiao breathed in lightly. Old Yue, drop the bottom lane. Bai Cai: Gank? Lu Feng: Be ready to teleport. The four little ones, Okay! Another long three minutes passed. The harassed FTW seemed to be in a desperate situation, hovering on the brink of losing with no way to turn the tables. Bai Cai: Someones stepped into the river! Hed inserted vision there. Lu Feng was closest to the top jungle river channel. He stabbed out with his spear and landed a hit on Dxrus, who was in the bushes. Come. The entire team pressed their transmission buttons at Closes command. F*ck him! If they didnt fight back now, they would no longer have a chance. Y1 could see what FTW intended to do. They werent anxious as they surveyed the scene, and then the five of them gathered together and sounded the drums of war. The divine warrior charged in first, his buffs fully stacked up. He hefted his gun and flew at Dxrus while rushing to Y1s back ranks. Quas and Piglet had experienced the world and werent frightened by this sudden head-on assault. They calmly shifted positions and dispersed the damage. At the end of the day, the divine warrior was a functionality based warrior. It had mediocre DPS, and its strength lay in injury resistance and control. Close had been quiet for the whole game, but hed now finally found the right opportunity. His spear stabbed through the air, and his divine miracle landed in the canyon. Under this unexpected ultimate and flash combo, he sent Y1s core DPS position flying. Yan Jiangs totem was inserted right at the edge of his divine miracle skill, restoring most of his teammates health. Quas threw his skills at Close. Piglet stood steady, dealing non-stop DPS. Bai Cai followed up quickly, tossing out all of his skills at the divine warrior. At the same time, he sent his bubble tune into the crowd to control their opponents. The divine warrior had a skill that allowed him to share the damage being dealt. Brother Cai had arrived just in time, giving Lu Feng a chance to breathe. Another spear shot out, and this time it sent the berserker thief flying! One warrior and one priest was enough to disturb Y1s formation! Although they had to take on a lot of danger, they were still able to open up a bloody path for their teammates! Wei Xiao fixed his eyes on Yan Jiangs position. Taking advantage of the time when he tossed out the healing totem and had absolutely no time to create a control totem, hed stacked up enough damage. Eight ars combined with Closes divine miracle to create explosive damage applied huge pressure on the other teams health bars. Y1s overall state plummeted! Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were given enough of an opportunity to deal DPS. The berserker thief had taken down the divine warrior, but unfortunately, hed been held up and couldnt reach the mage and marksman off in the distance. Wei Xiao pounced on Quas and sent him home. Yan Jiang handed his resurrection to Piglet. Piglet lived up to his trust and achieved a double kill with his continuous shooting. Bai Cai gave Wei Xiao his last bit of healing before falling to the ground. Wei Xiao used shadow attack and backstab and left Piglet seriously injured. Yue Wenle took down Piglet before he died. Wei Xiao locked in on Yan Jiang As those in front fall, those behind take up their positions. Stepping on this road that the captain had opened up with blood, walking on steps formed by his teammates and corpses, Wei Xiaos short blade pierced the elemental shamans chest! Ace! Y1 had been aced! Chapter 218.1: It was clear that they just didnt want to fight against him! Wei Xiao, who was still alive, didnt stop at all. He made use of the lane soldiers to recover his health, then charged all the way to Y1s base alongside his own little soldiers. The fastest one to resurrect from Y1 was Dxrus who had 19 seconds to go. Could he break down the crystal in 19 seconds? It was difficult. Y1 had been too strong in the early stages, and they had controlled their soldier lanes very well. Although Close had directly assaulted them in their face in this wave of fighting, theyd done their set up well in advance. If their soldier lanes werent in a good state, they wouldnt have gone to ambush their opponents. This was the terrifying thing about having strong operations. It had an amazingly high fault tolerance rate, and there was rarely any opportunity for sudden death games. For example, after FTW had managed to remain standing at the end of this fight, Wei Xiao didnt delay at all. The shadow thief was a talent with considerable attack speed, but unfortunately, he was still unable to push all the way to the crystal. By the time hed managed to take down one of the towers protecting the base, Dxrus had already rushed back out. It was difficult for the shadow thief to gain the advantage against a blood warrior. There was a chance if this was just a solo game, but Y1s entire team was about to resurrect, and if Wei Xiao tried to fight, hed be playing irrationally and sending away his own head. He went semi-invisible and dove back into the jungle zone, sweeping through and clearing it out at the fastest possible speed before returning to his own jungle zone. He would snatch up resources and develop. If they could pull off another wave of team fighting just like earlier, then FTW could win the game! Unfortunately Would there be another such chance? Y1 wasnt a team who would repeat mistakes. They had a strong ability to adjust, and wouldnt make the same mistake twice in the same game. On the sidelines, Yuan Ze could already see the ending. FTW had lost this game, but it had been played wonderfully. That round where theyd aced Y1 was a very commendable and classic group fight that wouldve been acknowledged even amongst all the global professional teams. Close had decisively started up the group fight, and his teammates support had followed quickly. Their mage and marksman had positioned themselves very well, in places where they could DPS like crazy without getting ambushed. At the end, the timing of Wei Xiaos entry into the fray had been executed with textbook accuracy. Hed gone in with a combo and stacked up his arc damage faster than usual. What was more ingenious was that hed learned his lesson and had already adapted to the elemental shamans rhythm, seizing a gap when he was unable to squeeze out a control totem to enter the fight. He was stable, accurate, and fierce, and his wave of explosive DPS laid the foundation for Y1s mass destruction. Close had started the group fight, and Wei Xiao had ended it. These two had really found their own rhythm. Yuan Ze sighed internally and had to admit: Close was really very suited to playing top-lane. Three years ago, nobody had asked Close which position he wanted to play. There was no need to ask, and they didnt have to ask. He was strong and fierce with thieves, and his rhythm when playing jungler was also amongst the best. As long as Yan Jiang was in the team, there was no problem with cooperation. Theyd crushed everyone the whole way to champion. Who couldve thought that he might not like playing jungler? That he might not love this position, and there might be a more suitable choice for him? No one asked, and he didnt say. In the arrogant Team of Gods, only little Close had cooperated with them right from the start. And they Defeat! FTW failed to resist Y1s fierce assault and lost the training game. This was within expectations. They hadnt taken it easy and had taken out the same momentum they had for the finals. With a Y1 where even Yan Jiang was so serious, how could they lose to FTW, whod still been nervous at the start of the game and only found their optimal state halfway? Yuan Ze glanced at Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao was staring at the screen, his black eyes bright. After losing the game, his mood was even higher than before. Yuan Ze cursed secretly: So this is why I hate this kind of unkillable genius. Even as he cursed, the corners of his mouth couldnt help curving upwards. Again! Wei Xiao was in high spirits. Y1, on the other side: For a moment, it was unclear who had lost and who had won. Yuan Ze answered, To hell with again. Wei Xiao turned to stare at him. Yuan Ze: Get up, its time for big brother to play. The next match was L&P against Y1. The schedule was laid out right there. Wei Xiao didnt want to get up. He hadnt played enough, and he didnt want to rest! Lu Feng looked at him. Do you want to eat watermelon? Wei Xiao instantly lost interest in Old Dog Yuan, Yes~ Dont ask. If you ask, then there really was a tilde in his voice. FTW had a temporary break. Wei Xiao accepted the food offered by his captain and ate his watermelon while watching the game. Theyd just finished playing against Y1, and Wei Xiaos hands were really itching. If it werent for the people in the room, he really wouldve wanted to hold Lu Fengs hand. Unfortunately, there were so many people in the room that they couldnt even find a chance to touch sneakily. His hands were itchy, and his heart was hot, but he could only watch. He was envious and greedy for everything! In Training Room B, Pro and EVE were having a tense game. They were playing two games in a row, but they were much slower than Training Room A. While they were already starting the third game on this side, Training Room B was still on the second game. On one hand, the two sides were playing very seriously. On the other hand, the two teams were too familiar with each other. They were busy trying to trick each other, causing their speed to slow down. Of course, there was another point that neither side wanted to admitCCthey didnt want to lose. Although it was a training match, they just didnt want to lose! The proud flower who was living in FTW didnt want to have to move away, and Xie He, who had no chance to live at the base, wanted to move in. It was unknown if these two teams would be able to encounter each other in the globals, but in any case, these two games right now were no less competitive than global competition games! Wei Xiao went to Training Room B to have a look. Because the proud flower was too good at surviving, and the rhythm of the game was too slow, he slipped back out again. Of course, it was also because he hadnt seen the earlier game situation, and it felt as if something was lacking when he started watching from halfway. It would be better to watch the game replay later; also, Y1 and L&P had just started their game, which looked to be more exciting. L&P and Y1 were also old enemies. In last years finals, L&P had been defeated 3:1 by Y1. This had left L&P nursing their anger for a long time. During a BO5 game, L&P had only won the first match, and theyd been so angry their chests hurt for half a month straight. The European fans had scolded and ridiculed L&P repeatedly. To hell with being the runner-up. The golden dragon trophy holder was the real daddy! With these old grievances in play, this training match between the two sides must be fun to watch. Wei Xiao suddenly spoke up, Are we enjoying the opening game for the globals ahead of time? FTW: Youre the one holding the script, you know everything! L&P wasnt as nervous as FTW had been. This was an old opponent. To hell with being nervous! They entered the game and began to fight. Old G took MO with him and headed straight for Y1s jungle zone, catching God Hai and sending him off with a scythe. Y1 was playing a marksman focused line-up in this game. Hai was using a toolman jungler, and not only did he not have Captain Yan beside him, he also didnt have much DPS on his own. At the end of the day, Gary was one of the top junglers in the world. He was both cool and handsome when he grew serious, and his berserker thief was the pinnacle of perfection as he killed off Hai within moments. Wei Xiao was left breathless. Old G is nursing deep resentment. Theyd played quite a few training matches with L&P and were a bit more familiar with them. Not much needed to be said about Garys personal strength, but it depended on his state. He was more casual and playful in training competitions, and he always wanted to mess with his idol (yes, it was Close). In fact, hed only really played out 60-70% of his real strength. Now, when faced with Y1, he was different right from the start and gave off a sense of being the number one jungler king in North America. Playing competitive games built up experience and watching games also did the same. This was especially the case when watching strong teams fight. Paying careful attention to the game could allow the watcher to learn a lot of details. L&P was a team that was a bit similar to FTW. Watching them fight against Y1 meant that FTW could also review their performance in the previous game, and it was like a game replay review in disguise. Unfortunately, the line-up that Y1 took this time was very different from the last game. When they faced FTW, Y1 had chosen a team with a jungler core, and their intention of hitting them hard and fast had been obvious. This game was different. The marksman core system had to remain stable in the early stages, avoiding fights whenever they could and hiding wherever possible. Once they made it to the middle and late stages of the game, they would be able to shift the advantage and win the game. In last years global finals, Y1 had used the marksman system in the third game they played against L&P. In the early stages, L&P had been reckless and beaten Y1 up until they were all bloody. Fans on the scene had thought that L&P would be able to win and bring the score to 2:1. Unexpectedly, 20 minutes later, PIG managed to rise up, and the cold, chilly arrows of his marksman all shot true. Old G was skewered until he was bleeding all over. In the last wave, Yuan Ze and Gary worked together to take down PIG in a two for one exchange where only Yuan Ze was left alive. However, Quas, the mid-laner mage king picked up the baton, and Y1 aced L&P, ending the game. The biggest thing to be afraid of with a marksman core wasnt that the marksman would dominate the whole scene. What was the most fearsome was when the marksman fell to the ground and someone else in the team was still able to play out explosive DPS. After killing off one big daddy, there was still another big daddy. This was really enough to make L&P, who had an early stage line-up, so angry that their livers hurt. It was also because theyd lost the third match that L&Ps mentality collapsed slightly. Their performance in the fourth match was mediocre, and Y1 had snatched up the golden dragon trophy. It was a training match, but it was the same line-up as the key game in last years finals. How could L&P not let it get to their heads! Wei Xiao was quite sharp. He whispered quietly to Lu Feng and complained, It feels like Y1s not motivated. Lu Feng didnt say anything, but Brother Cai heard him and replied, Its a marksman core, theyre always weak in the early stages. Wei Xiao felt that that wasnt the case. Theyd just finished playing together, and he had a basic sense of the starters in Y1. He could see that something was fishy even if he was only watching. Lu Feng glanced in Y1s direction out of the corner of his eyes and fed Wei Xiao a slice of watermelon. Wei Xiao: Wu its really sweet. Lu Feng: Last one. If you eat more, your stomach will feel uncomfortable. Wei Xiao: One more, just one more. Lu Feng cut a small piece for him, and Wei Xiao leaned over to snatch it away. He was delighted. Super sweet. Brother Cai, who was trying hard to block this sight from the rest of the room: Blame me, blame me for being too thin, but even though Im trying my damned best to press the closet door shut for you, the door wont hold anymore! Wei Xiao wasnt wrong. Y1 really wasnt motivated. In the middle and late stages, PIG had developed enough. They met L&P in a wave of fighting and then everything went as expected. There was no need for Yuan Ze and Gary to pass over the baton to each other. Old G killed PIG on his own, Yuan Ze took down Quas, and Y1 collapsed. Victory. Yuan Ze, whod won the game, wasnt happy at all. He looked to the side to glare at Yuan Ze. Youre a little overly biased! If Yuan Ze hadnt seen how seriously Y1 had played in their game against FTW, then he could comfort himself by saying that Yan Jiang was lazy, and everyone in Y1 were noobs. Last years finals championship was just a damned accident. Now It was clear that they just didnt want to fight against him! What made Old Dog Yuan so angry that his liver ached was that Yan Jiang even made a calm sound of acknowledgement. He said that he was being biased! And he even agreed! Yuan Ze: This was really worthy of being Captain Yan. His ability to deal with his old teammates was as good as it had always been. Chapter 218.2: An energetic Little Lunatic Wei Both sides finished their games at similar times. Pro and EVE had played two games, and each team had one game. Their scores were exactly the same. The teams in Training Room A also had one point each. After tossing about for such a long time, the five teams were still divided equally, and no one was better than anyone else. Of course, the round robin had only just started. At the end, there would always have to be a first, second, third, fourth, and fifth place! After FTWs break, their next game was against Pro. Wei Xiao rubbed his hands together. Bring it! Kim Sung-hyun looked at him. Such strong murderous intent? Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. Dont be scared, God Kim, Ill be gentle The corner of Kim Sung-hyuns mouth twitched, and he glanced at Lu FengCCwas it really okay for your little lover to talk like this?! Lu Feng expressionlessly pressed down on a certain little lunatics head. Wei Xiaos hair stood on end. I mean, I will be Ouch. The tease shut up. If he kept talking, then his vinegar king would make him sleep in the guest room. FTW vs Pro, EVE vs Y1. L&P was watching again for this game. Yuan Ze remained sitting next to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao: Theres a lot of space where God Kim is. Yuan Ze: I want to watch you. Wei Xiao: ?? Old Dog Yuan finally managed to get even. I want to watch how youll be gentle with the proud flower. Wei Xiao: Old Bandit Yuan, youre done for! Youre dead! If Laozi has to sleep in the guest room, then Ill kill you! Yuan Ze was satisfied. After suffering all night, he was finally able to find some fun. Yeah, Close was Little Lunatic Weis weakness. This tease wasnt self conscious enough and he deserved to have Lulu get jealous! BP began. Wei Xiao flattered his boyfriend, Captain, do you want to use the shadow thief? Lu Feng: No. Wei Xiao: Then shall we take the double berserkers? Or double blood! The berserker thief and berserker warrior or the blood warrior and blood raven thief were both super sweet Glory CPs. Lu Feng paused. Wei Xiao: You can use whatever you want, Ill cooperate with you! Lu Feng was in the first position. He took the blood warrior, and Wei Xiao, who was in the second position, took the blood raven thief. There were quite a few people in the training room. They all choked. It was a proper training game; dont f*cking show your love with it! Kim Sung-hyun locked in the frost hunter. He wanted to shoot these mandarin ducks and string them up with his arrows! Li Heran took the elemental shaman. Brother Cai had recently developed a psychological trauma over the elemental shaman and quivered. I Chen Feng: Holy priest. Brother Cai was a little relieved. Okay First, there was Captain Yans elemental shaman, followed by Captain Lis elemental shaman. Glorys top supports were all taking turns at him, and Brother Cai wanted to express that this was the kind of story that even the Gossip Emperor didnt dare to write about! Bai Cai was at ease with the holy priest. At the very least, it was a talent he was good at. Although its mechanisms meant its upper limit wasnt as high as the elemental shamans, Bai Cai was used to it and comfortable playing it. He wouldnt feel flustered using it. The line-up was set. Both sides were old opponents and could figure out each others thoughts with a glance. As soon as the game started, Yuan Ze, who was focused on Wei Xiao, felt that things were different. Old G also slid his e-sports chair over and perched on Wei Xiaos left. At the same time, he could also see Lu Feng, who was to his left. Fanboy G had a very deep attachment to Close. It was fortunate that Wei Xiao was playing this game, because otherwise he mightve become jealous enough to kick G out of the base in an instant. Others might not have noticed it so quickly, but Yuan Ze and Gary couldnt help wanting to beat certain people up with a glance. Learning quickly and making use of it quickly. It really made people so angry their teeth itched. In the previous game, L&P played against Y1, and they used a typical jungler core system targeted at taking down marksman line-ups. L&P had put in a lot of effort to find this path, which was strong enough, fierce enough, and had a very stable type of suppression. Yuan Ze and Old G had also cooperated for a very long time in order to achieve the current effect. That brat Wei Xiao had only watched for a single match, yet hed already picked it up and was making use of it at that moment. What made it even more suffocating was that Lu Feng had also kept up with his thought process. The two of them clearly hadnt talked about it and hadnt communicated their thoughts. They hadnt even mentioned it, but they had such a tacit understanding between them that it meant that they knew what the other party wanted to do in an instant. Yuan Zes teeth hurt slightly. How did eating watermelon together even count as showing love? How did choosing CP talents count as feeding dog food? This f*cking hearts are connected without needing to communicate was the real way to abuse dogs! At this point, it was better to remain silent than to speak. Scum Man Yuan felt a little lonely. Wei Xiao was very fierce at the start of the game. Kim Sung-hyun could feel a sense of familiarity. Why does it feel like were playing with L&P? He tilted his head and looked at Yuan Ze. Old Shit, are you really so selfless, teaching others your own family skills? Yuan Ze was like a mute person whod taken a dose of bitter medicine. It was bitter, but he still had to hold on. Even youre calling me Teacher. I naturally have to have a teachers ethics. Kim Sung-hyun: Its Old Shit, not Teacher. God Kim had really put in effort and distinguished the sound differences so clearly. Unfortunately, Yuan Ze turned a deaf ear to this. Everyone knows that Im your teacher. Theres no need to emphasize it so many times. Kim Sung-hyun: In this game, Wei Xiao had indeed copied off the original, perfectly reproducing L&Ps style of play in the last game. At the start, Bai Cai hadnt sensed it. By the time they took First Blood, hed figured it out. Live learning and making use of it on the spot! The question was: how could it be learned so quickly! Bai Cai recalled the words Wei Xiao had said to him earlierCCIf we cant achieve the same effect as Captain Yan, then Ill beat you to death. In the last game, when FTW was up against Y1, Brother Cai had ended up on his knees due to Yan Jiangs elemental shaman. In this game, Wei Xiao showed him in another way that it was really possible to copy others blindly. The key to it was holding up the pen to start! If he didnt have the courage to give it a try, then how could he know whether he could or couldnt do it? Bai Cai thought back to how support had been played in the last match and started to cooperate with Wei Xiao. It was just a training match, and winning or losing wasnt important. What was important was to try! Pro was the strongest marksman core team in the world. If they were able to play this strategy out to some effect against them, then what else would they be afraid of?! Just fight and be done with it! Not only Bai Cai, but even Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle started to sense it later on. They didnt have Wei Xiao and Lu Fengs ability to copy, but they had the deepest memory of what theyd just seen. Using this opportunity to strengthen that memory was effective, too! The entire L&P figured out what was happening. They didnt get angry and only felt that it was amusing. Routines were something that couldnt really be hidden. Whether or not others could learn it depended on their own ability. Obviously, Wei Xiao and Lu Fengs top-jungler linkage was already catching up to the top levels. If those currently at the peak didnt work hard, then they would only be beaten to death. The other three were still a bit short and would need to try and practice many times in order to keep up. FTW ultimately lost, but Kim Sung-hyun had already broken out in a cold sweat. He spoke to Li Heran in Korean, Well have to be careful in the globals after they get some practice in. Li Heran also gave them a very high evaluation, They have a very strong ability to learn. It wasnt just strong, it was simply too strong! In the past FTW, the only person in the team who could copy was Close. Now, the entire team had this ability. It was simply terrifying! The round robin between the five teams lasted until noon the next day. The more FTW played, the more excited they became. First, they used L&Ps style against Y1 to fight against Pro and make their scalps go numb; later on, they used L&Ps tricks against EVE to make God Xies murderous intent soar up to the skies; after that, they used Y1s jungler core system to fight hard against L&P and provoke them The final rankings were very interesting. Pro was in first place, L&P was second place, Y1 and EVE were third place, and FTW was very stable in fifth place. But dont look at how they were fifth, they were actually the biggest winners! This was one day and one night of learning and practising on the spot! And they made use of it all very well. Last years global top four inexplicably felt hollowed out! There was something a little suspicious about how Y1 and EVE had tied for third place. If theyd really become second place and forced Yuan Ze or Kim Sung-hyun to move out Yeah, it wasnt worth it. After the end of this long training match marathon, everyone was tired. With the exception of one person. Wei Xiao: Its a pity that Captain Yan and God Xie are just short two points. Everyone present had a bad feeling. Wei Xiao: How about going for round two! The worlds peak level players: Are you not f*cking tired! A certain little lunatic really wasnt tired. He even had a suggestion, Lets not play team games this time. Come and solo. Ill dedicate myself to being a target for you guys. You can take turns with meeeee ah The little lunatic was carried away by the great demon king before he could finish. Chapter 219.1: Grandmaster, act human. What are you drawing this kind of thing for? Wei Xiao was still distraught as he was carried away. What a pity! This was an opportunity that would only occur once in a lifetime! No, no, no, this was definitely a chance that would only ever happen once! It was gone, all gone. It had slipped through his fingers. Just imagine, Y1, L&P, Pro, and EVE were all tired. They definitely couldnt play solo in a round robin system and could only take a rest after each game. That meant that he, Wei Xiao, would have room to play. He hadnt been able to let FTW act as a sandbag for team games, but there was now a chance for him to enjoy himself! Unfortunately Wei Xiao was still aggrieved by the time they returned to the base. Lu Feng stared at him. Sleep. After staying up for a whole day and night, the others toppled over and went to sleep as soon as they got back to the dormitory. Only this little bastard was still moaning and whining. Wei Xiao: Ying. Lu Feng: Wei C Sister Xianglin C Xiao came online, There was such a big pile of solo Lu Feng got up, surprising Wei Xiao. In the next second, Wei Xiao had toppled back onto the soft bed, staring with wide eyes at the man above him. Lu Fengs voice was deep and slow, What did you want to do to Kim Sung-hyun? Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng drew closer to him bit by bit. The pressure of Lu Fengs gaze was directed right at his face, stabbing at Wei Xiao until his cheeks were all red. Cap captain Lu Feng bit him gently on the neck. And who else did you want? Wei Xiao: !! He was dead. What solo? What round robin? What Team of Gods? All of it had gotten lost somewhere away in the sky. Wei Xiao wrapped his arms around Lu Fengs neck, his heart pounding even as he continued to run his mouth, I only want my captain, boyfriend, lover, Big Brother Lu, husband mm Wei Little Xiaos physical strength wasnt on par with his mouths ability to boast. The earlier training match had gone on for a day and night, and hed been more focused than anyone else. Hed been serious from the first game all the way to the last second, and not only had he used up physical energy, he was also extremely mentally tired. He was greedy and wanted to solo, but in fact, hed been unable to hold up since a long time ago. Lu Feng made him come once, and Wei Xiao didnt even have the strength to take a shower afterwards. Lu Feng had to carry him over to take a quick shower, then bring him back. Wei Xiao was in a daze. Captain Lu Feng endured his own arousal. Mm. Wei Xiao seemed to be talking in his dreams, Love you Lu Fengs heart felt sticky and sweet, like melted maple syrup. He kissed his lips and said, Sleep. Wei Xiao slept soundly, sticking close and wrapping around him like an octopus. He had a dreamless night. Wei Xiaos sleepwalking had been cured ever since he started going out with Lu Feng. In the past, he would definitely sleepwalk as long as he was extremely tired after being highly excited mentally or physically. Two years ago, hed pounced into Lu Fengs arms and slept with him all night; during the winter training camp, hed also climbed into Lu Fengs bed and pestered him there. Now, Wei Xiao never sleepwalked anymore. He was clearly tired to the extreme, but his sleep was now very stable. Lu Feng hugged Wei Xiao and thought back to two years ago. Hed first met Wei Xiao two years ago, and spent 48 hours straight soloing with him, ignoring both night and day. Those 48 hours had passed by quickly. Lu Feng only realized it had been such a long time after hed come back to his senses. Wei Xiao had been sleeping in the guest room, but Lu Feng had been a little worried. Hed gone to the guest room to check in on him, but unexpectedly, the door had opened just before he could knock, and there had been a helpless young man standing dazed in front of him. Lu Feng was a little stunned. Wei Xiao? Without saying anything, the half grown young man had pounced into his arms like a child that no one wanted. Lu Feng: ! Hot tears soaked into his chest through his thin pajamas, and the youths voice was soft as he attempted to suppress his grievances, Dont go. Lu Feng didnt know who Wei Xiao thought he was. You Wei Xiao hugged him tight. Dont leave me behind. Lu Fengs back stiffened, and then he embraced him gently. Its all right. Wei Xiaos body relaxed slightly, but he never let go of Lu Feng. He even muttered a sentence, How hard Lu Feng: Later, Wei Xiao ultimately never learned the story of how hed opened Lu Fengs closed door and sleepwalked into his room. The answer was that Lu Feng had taken him back to his room and coaxed him to sleep. After playing for a full day and night, then sleeping for 12 hours, everyone woke up full of energy and in good spirits. Chen Feng didnt waste any time at all and took them all to the training room to start going over the game replays. Playing training matches involved a moment of feeling great that was followed by death via replay reviews. The little ones all wilted and splayed out weakly on the table. Chen Feng took out a soul sucking poster to cheer everyone up. There was nothing wrong with a countdown, but there was something very wrong with drawing it out in such a ghastly manner! Those who understood knew that Coach Chen Feng had drawn a countdown to the global competition in order to motivate the players and urge the team to continue to make progress. Those who didnt know better thought that it was a wizard drawing a ghost talisman in order to curse FTW In any case, Fu Li was startled when he stepped into the FTW training room. Eurostar shot straight to his feet. Holy shit! After that, the cowardly baby yelled and cursed loudly, Grandmaster, act human. What are you drawing this kind of thing for? Are you going to repay a life with a life if you scare people to death?! Wei Xiao: ??? The little lunatics reputation had been smeared! Eurostar: Other than you, who else would be so bored? Drawing such a damned thing, you must have done it on purpose! It wasnt Wei Xiao. Coach Chen Feng spoke coldly, I drew it. Eurostar: ! Fu Li had heard a bit about Soul Painting Master Chens abilities in the Glory circle. Its very distinctive. Eurostar hid behind his captain. Chen Feng: Ha, ha. Sure enough, FTW and TPT were on bad terms with each other. Even their greetings were filled with the scent of gunpowder. Wei Xiao had been wronged for no reason and was unhappy in his heart. Euro-coward, what are you doing here? Eurostar stretched his head out to look at him. My captain brought me here! Wei Xiao looked at Fu Li, Captain Fu? TPT was now on vacation. Why had he run over to FTW instead of resting properly? Of course, nobody ever went to the temple for nothing. Fu Li didnt bother with nonsense, either. He got straight to the point, I heard you played three days and three nights of training matches with the top four. The four little ones: ??? Chen Feng rubbed his forehead: What kind of rumors were making the rounds outside? Fu Li: I heard that it started because of Wei Xiao. Whoever won first place would be able to sign him onto their team next season. The three small ones all turned their heads over in panic. Wei Xiao: Dream on! Laozi was born in FTW and will die as FTWs ghost! Fu Li: In that case, they want Close. Wei Xiao was about to explode any minute now. Close is mine! Fu Li made a pointed oh sound that ended on an upward tone. Wei Xiao came back to his senses and recalled the temperament of this guy with the black glasses and figured out that he was just talking nonsense. Where did Captain Fu hear this gossip from? Fu Lis expression didnt change despite having been exposed. He had first class skills in tossing around blame. Do you know about the Gossip Emperors Weibo? He was the one who sent it. The real Gossip Emperor, Brother Cai: ! Im not, I didnt, Captain Fu, dont f*cking tell lies with your eyes wide open. Fu Li really continued to talk nonsense with his eyes wide open. However, you dont have to go look for it now. Hes already deleted it. Wei Xiao: If he didnt know that the Gossip Emperor was a certain vegetable stalk, if he didnt know for sure that this vegetable stalk wasnt that bold, then he would really have believed Fu Li! But what Fu Li said wasnt all pure nonsense. The netizens brain holes and ability to make things up were many and varied. Even the craters on the moon would be ashamed to compare themselves to those theories. The more mysterious, hidden, and kept from the light something was, the more excited the fans were when it came to their guesses. Something about the four teams greeting the host competition zones team, something about the Team of Gods meeting up with their youngest brother, something about Captain Yuan falling for the little tease in FTW and wanting nothing else but to take him back home, something about Captain Yan and Quiet forming ties during the global singles performance competition, something about how God Kim and Wei Xiaos interactions from the winter training camp that had to be shared Compared with the netizens, Captain Fu had already been very polite. Fu Li hadnt come to FTW to feel out gossip. Hed come for proper business. Fu Li: Its unfortunate that we didnt make it to the battle of freedom in the finals. The so-called battle of freedom was the last match in a BO5 game. Talents could be picked at will, and players would have a fierce direct battle. Wei Xiao: You guys wouldve lost even if wed really made it to the battle of freedom. Was FTWs inherited shadow thief a joke? This was exactly why Fu Li had come. Lets play a match? Wei Xiao: ? Fu Li: You guys take the shadow thief. There was no need for him to say more. Wei Xiao got it. You have a routine against it? Fu Li: Yes. Such a determined tone made Wei Xiao excited! After going through seven or eight hours of replay review, the three little ones all grew eager and excited to log into the game as soon as they heard that there would be a training match. Chen Feng understood this well. He cleared up the sand table and videos and let them touch their keyboard and mouse. Lu Feng had something to deal with and only arrived a few minutes later. They had set up the training room in this period of time, and everyone soon entered the blind selection interface. Chen Feng wasnt polite at all and directly locked in FTWs strongest line-up. Death knight, shadow thief, ice mage, holy priest, frost hunter. Double shadow plus double ice. This line-up was one that FTW had never lost with before. Wei Xiao saw TPTs line-up as they entered the canyon. Blood warrior, berserker thief, zither warlock, puppet warlock, gun launcher. Double warlock It couldnt be called a strong line-up, and it even consisted of benched talents. This line-up could beat Wei Xiaos shadow thief? Wei Xiao was skeptical about this, and the others in FTW also held a wait-and-see attitude. However, if Fu Li dared to come find them, then it meant that he definitely had something up his sleeve. FTW wouldnt underestimate their opponent. They cleared their jungle and lanes, starting off the game smoothly. Three minutes into the game, top-laner Wei Ji happily sent out First BloodCChe had to smile even if he wasnt happy! When faced with Close, surviving for three minutes was already a victory! Chapter 219.2: Whats wrong with your China competition zone? Things were relatively calm before level 6. It was only after level 6 that Wei Xiao got a feel for TPTs routine. The zither warlock together with the puppet warlock was a really disgusting combo. One of them had control skills, DPS, and healing, while the other one could force the shadow thief to move a certain way. When used correctly, even the curve of the light arcs could be twisted around! Although the light arcs had a wide attack range, it was still aimed in a certain direction. The area 180 degrees in front of the shadow thief was its attack direction. As the light arcs stacked up, the range would increase, but no matter how wide it was, there was still a front and back to the damage dealt. The puppet warlock could manipulate an enemy talent. There was no need to twist him around too much. As long as he was gently turned around in the first half second of the light arcs, the damage dealt would be greatly reduced! What was even more disgusting was that the puppet warlock could also move their own teammates. If they were unable to control the shadow thief, then they just had to move their own heroes, instantly shifting from a position in front of the shadow thief to behind him. Even though the damage caused by the back of eight light arcs wasnt low, it was no longer enough for an insta kill. As long as they were still alive, then the zither warlocks healing was enough for them to continue living on. The shadow thief was a hero who would have an empty period where no skills could be used after brushing out the light arcs. If he was unable to kill off his opponents right then, it would be very difficult for him to continue dealing damage. So, if he couldnt kill the other side, then he would either have to run off and escape or be killed off by his opponents. High performance talents also meant high risk. Wei Xiao and Lu Fengs shadow thief was too strong, and theyd covered up this high risk, but Fu Li had now exposed it. Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. Theres something there. Chen Feng was shocked as he watched: it was fortunate that they hadnt dragged things on until the battle of freedom. If theyd really hit the fifth match, then it would be difficult to say who the champion would be. The five players from TPT were obviously holding onto repressed anger. Theyd lost 3-0 in the finals, and it had taken them many days to recover from the loss. Although they werent really angry, it was certain that they were unable to remain calm. During this season, FTW had travelled through a bumpy path and worked bitterly to improve themselves. How could it not be the same for them? Fu Li wished that there were 48 hours to each day, and Eurostar could see his own captain in the training room no matter what time he went. Old veteran players Du Yi, Wei Ji watched as even new players were so hard working, so how could they not follow suit? Trust was accumulated through joint efforts that had been made over endless days and nights. Admittedly, TPT also had some of the problems that FTW had had beforeCCan overreliance on their captain. However, this unconditional trust had also contributed to the current TPT. They had been eclipsed in the finals, but to be able to come and have a training match with FTW again so soon meant that even without mentioning anything else, the TPT teams psychological state was definitely one of the best in the league. As they fought on, Wei Xiao was also able to figure out Fu Lis intentions. His mouth might be shouting about regret and wanting to let FTW see the ace up their sleeve, but in fact, they were there to accompany them to train, remind them, and help them circumvent potential problems. If TPT could come up with a viable routine, then the many excellent teams worldwide probably could, as well. The shadow thief had already become FTWs signboard. And as a signboard, it would definitely be studied. This round of actions from TPT was really done out of the goodness of their heart. They showed their routine to FTW, simultaneously reminding them not to blindly trust in their line-up but to make full preparations in order to avoid the possible risks. The zither warlock used in conjunction with the puppet warlock really restrained the shadow thief. Du Yi didnt have Yan Jiangs precision control, and Fu Li couldnt do Yan Jiangs super-strong control, but their line-up was actually more devastating than Y1s. There were very few players who could use the elemental shaman like Yan Jiang. But there were many puppet warlock and zither warlock players who could play at Du Yi and Fu Lis level. This simple combination was already able to put FTW in a tight spot, and this was the most deadly point. There was only one Y1, but there were many TPTs. FTW had to be on alert and come up with countermeasures. After the training match, Fu Li spoke calmly, This line-up still has breakthrough points. Wei Xiao was full of respect for this Glory study god. Captain Fu, please share! Fu Li might be kind, but he wouldnt give everything out in vain. Hed taken out and shared the treasure at the bottom of his chest and naturally wanted some reward in return. Fu Li: So, you guys played one day and one night of training matches? Wei Xiao understood what he wanted as soon as he heard this. Chen Feng said, You can stay and watch the replays if youre interested. The training match recordings shouldnt be shared externally, but it didnt matter if they stayed here and watched it. Additionally, they were only watching the games where FTW was involved, and TPT had already missed their opportunity to enter the globals, so they wouldnt be exposing any tactics. Fu Li: Okay. This was what hed been waiting for. There was no BP in the battle of freedom, so it was difficult to target the zither warlock and puppet warlock through BP. The starting point to avoiding this problem lay with the support position. Chen Feng had thought of having Brother Cai practice the purification priest, but unexpectedly, Fu Li gave them another answer, You guys can also take the puppet warlock. This It was true that the same talent could be chosen by both sides in the battle of freedom Wei Xiao clapped. We can do that! If they practiced this line-up, they could counter anything the opposite side decided to use. Fu Li continued, If youre brave enough, you can also consider using the space-time knight. The space-time knight had the ability to turn back time. If it was used well, then the shadow thief could resurrect on the spot and fight another round. Of course, the risk factor involved was high as well. Whether or not that 0.1 second could be grasped accurately was very important. And the shadow thief needed to have absolute confidence in order to lead their team to victory. Brother Cais face was as white as snow. This one Regardless of whether it was the puppet warlock or the space-time knight, both of them were unfamiliar talents for him! Lu Feng: Ill use the space-time knight. Brother Cai: ! Oh yeah. Not only could the space-time knight be used for support, it could also be used in the top lane. Brother Tang had used it before, but later, after Lu Feng went to the top lane, everyone still regarded him as a strong DPS dealer and forgot that in fact, he could also platform. Wei Xiao was jumping around eagerly, Come and try it! TPT hadnt played enough, either, so the two sides went at it again. This time, FTW had adjusted their line-up. The death knight was now a space-time knight, and the holy priest was now a puppet warlock They had the same calm start, and after level six, the shadow thief once again regained his freedom and became a team fight explosive bomber. Fu Li was shocked as he played, and he had the same thought as the Team of Gods: They learned too quickly! Brother Cais words might sound noob, but in fact, he was very easily motivated. In particular, Wei Xiao was the one bringing him with him. Brother Cais mouth might whine about how he couldnt do it, and it couldnt be done, but he played it out the way it should be done. It was very typical of Brother Vegetable. Fu Li stayed at FTW for two days. Not only did he share his routine for the battle of freedom, he even contributed his learning god brain and temporarily became a special coach for FTW. He watched the replay videos over and over again, and wrote many analysis reports. His seriousness in picking up details was on par with Chen Fengs. By the time the analysis report and training procedures were complete, Fu Li had finished off a large bucket of goji berry coffee. Eurostar was taken by surprise when he stepped out of his room. Captain! This slightly messy short hair, pale face, and the dark circles under his gold framed glassesCC He could cosplay as a vampire without putting on make-up! Fu Li rubbed his eyebrows. The globals will be a fierce battle. Eurostar was worried. FTW can do it, right? Fu Li breathed in lightly. They have to. Hed used up half his life staying up to help them. If FTW didnt win the championship, then they wouldnt be living up to his half box of black coffee and goji berries. FTW was quite embarrassed when faced with such a desperately working Fu. Fu Li spoke very reasonably, Im not doing it for you. Wei Xiao had heard this so much that his ears were growing calluses, Yes, yes, Captain Fu is doing it for our competition zone and the number of seed teams for the globals in the next season. Fu Li nodded. Wei Xiao laughed. Dont worry. The golden dragon trophy is ours. You guys need to work hard to finish second next season. The implication was that if FTW won the global championship, then they would earn two places for China next year. As for whether or not TPT could win second place in China, that would depend on their own ability. Fu Li: To hell with your second place! The silver dragon trophy would belong to TPT next year! Money came for a visit and ran into Fu Li. Mo Hui was wary. You guys must be engaged in some shady activities. As the saying went, it was difficult for a scholar to reason with a soldier. Fu Li really disliked someone like Money, who only knew how to sprinkle money around. He didnt say a word and turned around to leave. Money rushed into the FTW base and questioned the first person he came across. Brother Cai found a rubber band and tied it around his hand, hinting that things were a little tight. Captain Mo, who still had quite a significant salary despite no longer having his pocket money, directly made a transfer. Brother Cai counted it and was quite satisfied. Please come in, Captain Mo. Money was surprised to learn of Fu Lis hard work. I didnt expect that that damned beast in glasses would see the big picture. Captain Fu, whod returned back to his base, sneezed. Eurostar was nervous and anxious, Captain, did you catch a cold? Fu Li: He hadnt caught a cold, but there was a 80% chance that someone had cursed him. Wei Xiao explained in Fu Lis stead, Captain Fu sees the bigger picture and is forward-thinking. Hes aiming for the next season. Mo Hui: In fact, Im also very forward-thinking. Wei Xiao: Oh? Mo Huis little abacus crackled as he calculated, Dont you think that our RR is a bit like a little EVE? Everyone in FTW: They couldnt tell if he was being self-deprecating or if he was pasting gold on his own face! Mo Hui: My familys Little Moon is no worse than Xie He! He really wasnt much worse After all, he was a man whod managed to win against God Xie before. Mo Hui: Why dont you share Old Fus analysis report on EVE with us? Well go back and ponder over it, then practice EVEs routines to act as sandbags for you guys. Why did the word sandbag sound so familiar? It was fortunate that the top four teams in the world didnt hear this. If they were at the scene, they would definitely all complain: Whats wrong with your China competition zone? Are all of you addicted to being sandbags?! Wei Xiao thought it over for a moment. Brother Cai took the opportunity to try and overcharge him, Youre asking for exclusive secrets. Captain Mo, shouldnt you Money: Give me back the Porsche! Brother Cai was shocked. Dream on! Share Fu Lis analysis reports with RR? It wasnt that they couldnt. RR was indeed a bit like EVE, especially when it came to Moonlit. There was no avoiding that he was the leader of this new generation of prickly mages. If RR was really able to learn to play like a 70-80% EVE copy, then they would really be suitable practice partners for FTW. The globals were coming soon, and making training matches with another competitor was unrealistic. Reserving ready-made sandbags within their own competition zone would be very convenient. Mo Hui went straight to the FTW boss and tried to move him with reason and emotion, Im doing this for our China competition zone! Lu Feng dealt with official business. Money: Im also doing it to help you win the championship! Lu Feng continued with his work. Money could only pull out his killer move. Do you think I wont share your first grade composition with Wei Xiao? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao pushed the door open and came in, What? Chapter 220: Could it be that youre secretly in love with my captain! The door wasnt closed, and a gap had been left there, so Wei Xiao had come in directly. He hadnt been trying to eavesdrop, so he didnt know what was going on and only vaguely heard the words first grade, and to Wei Xiao. Wei Xiaos interest was piqued, and he interpreted these words simply, What first grade? A photo of my captain from first grade? When these words came out, Wei Xiao was the first to be excited by his own words. First grade. Seven years old. Was the pale and cute and lovely little captain just as meticulous and unsmiling as he was now? Or was the seven year old little captain an innocent and na?ve boy who hadnt yet learned his refrigeration skills? Getting affected by something he came up with on his own, Wei Little Xiao was a really special one. Money tensed up. Im not, I didnt, dont frame me! F*ck, if he spread out that kind of picture, Lu Feng would take him down and destroy him. However, he didnt have any photos of Lu Feng from when he was that little. Lu Feng had been abroad until he was 10 years old, and he had already become a cool and distant youth by the time he came back. Mo Hui didnt know what he was like as a child. Wei Xiao was very disappointed. Then what are you saying youll give me from first grade? Mo Hui glanced at Lu Feng and said, I was talking about your captains composition from the first year of middle school! Wei Xiao: ??? Lu Feng stared at Mo Hui, his eyes filled with warning. Mo Hui: ! Forget it, he would give up his life for the sake of RRs future! Wei Xiao continued to make things up in his brain. This time, it was the young captain from first year middle school, sitting at his desk and carefully writing out a short composition about his dreams, the future, and blah blah blah. I want it! Wei Xiao said quickly, I want the composition, too. Where is it? Give it to me quickly! He would take it back and frame it as an heirloom! Mo Hui continued to sneak glances at Lu Feng. Lu Feng didnt look at him again. Wei Xiao naturally knew what Mo Hui wanted and opened his mouth to say, Give me your little composition, and Ill help you plead with the captain and get him to share the analysis report with you. Mo Hui froze. This Although this development was a bit strange, it seemed to be in line with his goal? Hed originally intended to use this piece of black history to threaten Lu Feng, but hed managed to hook a little lunatic instead? Wei Xiao had already started up his acting spoiled mode. Captain~ Lu Feng: How could Mo Hui not understand how things were after looking at this situation? The iceberg had a hard time against this little sticky one, and FTWs real voice of power was in the hands of this little lunatic! Deal! Mo Hui didnt hesitate to sell out his old classmate. For the sake of RR, and for the sake of Little Moon-moon, he wasnt scared of life or death! Wei Xiao suddenly recalled another thing and turned to stare at Mo Hui. Why do you have my captains first grade composition? Mo Hui: Er Wei Xiao fur stuck up alertly, and the alarms rang continuously. How many years has it been, why did you keep my captains composition? Mo Hui: Wei Xiaos jealousy rushed up to the heavens. Could it be that youre secretly in love with my captain! Mo Hui: . The relationship between Wei Xiao and Lu Feng was the type where those who knew about it knew everything, and those who didnt know anything, knew nothing at all. Mo Hui was obviously one of the people who knew. He was a good single dog. How come he had ended up standing in the middle of the storm! Lu Feng purposely remained silent, his black eyes filled with, You brought this on yourself. For more, The 16 finalists from the globals assembled, and a fierce battle was imminent. With only two days left in the countdown, the organizers announced an innovative change in the competition system for the globals. There was an uproar online as soon as the news came out. This change was a really big one! Glory was really ruthless and was launching new talents prior to the start of the competition. This time, they were launching five new talents all in one go. There were new talents for the thief, warrior, mage, hunter, and priest classes. Players of the game were all excited and after studying the new talents for a long time, they came to a conclusion, These are all f*cking tailor-made for professional players! Five talents was just enough to form a team with. Whats more, these five talents were easy to figure out, difficult to master, and had very high operation limits. Ordinary players could use them, and passers-by could show off with them, but a gap would instantly open up when they fell into the hands of professional players. It was like playing two completely different heroes. The fans were focused on: This is interesting, this competition will be fun to watch! Go, go, go, give me a showdown to the death in the holographic projections! Ahhhhh, I feel that the new thief and warrior talents are a good match. After looking at the background information video, it seems like its another deep and sadistic love affair. The priest is also exciting. How come it feels like a love triangle? Who, who, who? A love triangle between the mid, jungle, and support? No! Its top-jungler-support What kind of devils match is this? Its probably because there are too many love relationships between mid-jungler-support and jungler-support-marksmen, so the game officials wanted to stir up something new? Looking forward to it! If we fill in the gaps with our FTW, wouldnt that be our twin jungler kings and little wifey? Thats a triangle of sugar from FTW. If you want to suffer knives, then please take a look at the old and new FTW Holy shit Yan Lu Xiao? Keep it implicit! The introduction of new talents was a normal thing, but there was another innovation that caused a stir. The global competition games would still be held in BO5 mode, but the battle of freedom that was the last match had been moved forward to become the first match. That meant that the first match of the game would be a blind selection of talents without BP. This instantly took the fans excitement to a new peak. This My FTW is going to dominate! The first game is a blind selection, meaning that FTWs inherited shadow thief can finally be released! Holy shit, doesnt this mean that FTW will never be zero shaved again? This so-called zero shaved meant losing the game 3:0. These words referred to FTW being able to stably win the first game. Calm down! Think about Xie Hes immortal warlock Yuan Zes death knight Garys shadow thief is very badass too And theres Li Herans elemental shaman with Kim Sung-hyuns gold hunter That winning line-up that Y1 has maintained for two years Hurry up, hurry up, everyone make noise about how much you want to watch the game! Having the battle of freedom shift from the fifth match to the first match was something that made everyone both happy and worried. However, the competition committee wasnt concerned about this. It had made this adjustment for the sake of traffic. A teams trump card would be used right at the start. This meant that their audience ratings would absolutely be able to go up against the heavens. There was also another unprecedented adjustment that was tantamount to a blow to many teams. This years BO5 adopted the full game BP model. This so-called full game BP meant that banned and selected talents couldnt be repeated across all the matches in a game. The exception was the blind selection in the first match. Starting from the second match, the four ban positions (reduced from six to four) could no longer be repeated throughout the whole game. For example, if the red side banned the shadow thief in the second match, then that talent could no longer be banned during subsequent matches. The same was true for the selected positions. For example, if the shadow thief was used in the second match, then it couldnt be used again in the next match. What did that mean? It was like cutting off the left arm of professional players who were only good at one or two talents. The teams who had relied on only one or two line-ups to gain dominance were instantly left in a tight spot. The new competition system for the globals was both fierce enough and exciting enough! It was Glorys peak level competitive event that would show everyone more than a limited set of line-ups and talents. They hoped to display more talents on the competitive arena, and bring more surprises to the audience. This was a good starting point, and this innovation had indeed mobilized the audiences enthusiasm to the greatest extent. But Countless clubs had their hair turn white overnight. What the hell Did they think that the coaching team had too much hair? Would they only be satisfied when they all turned bald? FTWs fans were jubilant as soon as the competition system came out. Sure enough, as long as you live for long enough, any good thing can fall from the sky. If I remember correctly, our FTW has two players with a deep talent sea? Yea, one is the great demon king, and the other is the little lunatic. Lu-Xiao CP, give it a try? Chapter 221: The China competition zone had no fear! The FTW coaching team wasnt as optimistic as the fans were. It was true that Lu Feng and Wei Xiao were both talent kaleidoscopes and all-around players who could play well using anything. They would benefit from this new competition system. But the three little ones werent as all-powerful. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle had only played for a season. The former was only focused on the holy priest or light priest, and his motto wasCCI can use these two talents until I die. Yue Wenles frost hunter was his signature talent. He also used the gold hunter, which was relatively similar, and he was becoming more and more familiar with some of the gunner type talents, but it wasnt enough for him to survive under the full game BP competition system. Although Little Ning was definitely a newcomer, he was actually in a better situation. Newcomers had no limitations. Ning Zhehan was inexperienced but gifted. He would dare to use anything without following set patterns. As for how effective that would be it remained to be seen. In a five person game, three of them couldnt pull their full weight. FTWs coaching team was so worried that they were going bald. Fortunately, they werent the only ones who were going bald. Basically all of the finalists brains were buzzing, and they were all scolding the competition committee for acting inhuman. They had only released the announcement for such a big change now; werent they afraid that the competition would end in failure? The competition committee really wasnt afraid. Glory had been operating for over ten years, and it had held 11 global tournaments. By now, all of the teams who could stand at the peak were all old pros, and what kind of big storms or big waves had they not seen before? The competition committee had already started acting up three years ago. Which game would dare to reveal new talents right before the competition? Glory dared. If they didnt throw out a deep-water torpedo, then both the clubs and the audience would be too carefree. Now, they were even crueler. They announced this great innovation to the competition two days prior to the competition, and then set the draw for the day before the game. Theyd obviously been scolded so much that their heads were now as hard as iron, and they werent afraid of being sent blades in retaliation. The head of the competition committee smiled like a fox during the press conference. A new competition system, a new thrill. I believe that each elite team in Glory will be able to bring more exciting and wonderful games to our fans. He was just short of sayingCC Daddy just wants to mess with you. Youve been messing around in Glory for over ten years. If you dont even have this bit of ability, then do you deserve to be called an elite team? Do you deserve to win the championship and covet the huge 30 million bonus that comes from the players?! The winning bonus was related to the game. The original bonus for the team competition was only 5 million, and it was the in-game players whod slowly raised the bonus up to 30 million through their contributions throughout the year. The competition committee itself was greedy. If they didnt create a high enough difficulty, then how would the players deserve to win and take home this amazing prize? The competition committee tortured the teams while pleasing the audience. After all, if the competition was fun to watch, then the audience would pay for it, building a virtuous cycle for the next season. FTWs pre-game special training was still in full swing. Energetic players like Asleep and Moonlit practically lived at FTW. For no other reason, but because they were helping Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle fatten up their talent pool. Moonlits talent pool couldnt be considered wide, but it was enough to train up Ning Zhehan. Little Ning was already very good at assassin mages, so he improved very quickly when the two of them started soloing. Asleep naturally couldnt play ADC, but he had a very deep understanding of thieves. What ADCs feared most was not the other sides ADC, but the other sides jungler. After undergoing Asleeps polishing, Yue Wenles sense of survival at least doubled or tripled. The seed teams for the 16 competition zones had already been announced. The China competition zone team was FTW, North America was L&P, South Korea was Pro, and Europe was Y1 and EVE. The remaining finalist competition zones included MS, CL, CB, ST, LA, CCL, PL, JL, VC, RU and CW (abbreviated competition zones). They were all the champions from their various competition zones. Some divisions, such as Latin America and Turkey, also had fans come over from their home country, in anticipation of watching their games live. On a hot summers day, the horn announcing the start of the global competition sounded. Everyone was ready to go. The investment daddies were everywhere. Although the competition committee had provided equipment for the major teams, that was only the foundation of the competition. Many of those who wanted to find someone to endorse them in China had gotten in touch with teams from various competition zones. Every time they could get their logo put up meant that they would increase their exposure. Although the schedule for the globals had been shortened, and many games had been cut out, it was, in fact, a strategy to improve the game flow. Elimination matches between 16 competition zones. Each game would be wonderful, and each game had to be played with full effort. The competition committee was trying to mobilize everyones expectations, so that they would worry about their team even when they werent watching them play. Victory or defeat during other games would affect who their subsequent opponents were! For example, if the Team of Gods could be eliminated in the top eight, then those haters would raise up their glasses in celebration. The teams drew lots the day before the opening game, which was also the day after the competition system changes were announced. After the competition system was announced, Twitter and Facebook had both exploded, and players from many teams directly opened up their mics, flaming all the way up to the skies. The domestic hot searches werent much different, but it was filled with more delight and anticipation. It remained this way until a certain competition zones seed team made vague hints at FTW. IN.Otee: A certain team must have paid the competition committee off, right? Could they have possibly been more biased? Ironically, this message was sent out in Chinese, holding a strong suggestive tone. Could they stand it? They definitely couldnt stand it! The majority of the players in the China competition zone passionately turned on their mics. That player had also gotten inspired, and he continued to trash talk, Its obvious. They couldve changed the competition system earlier or later, but they just had to do it after the host competition zone was set Many players from the other competition zones understood his words by relying on translators, and they all came out to support him, Closes strength is pretty good, but the competition zone is too weak. Why does the global competition have to be held there this year? I dont get it. There must be money involved. It must be for traffic. As we all know, the population over there, ha ha Having to communicate across languages wasnt enough to stop this bloody storm. Everyone was able to scold and curse at full steam by relying on machine translation. This player from IN was quite crazy, FTW, start praying. Pray you dont draw IN for the top eight elimination games, because we will never show mercy. The likes for this message actually broke through 10,000. The player from IN grew even more enthusiastic and continued, Since your China competition zone is so badass, why dont you live stream a training match? The domestic fans wanted to throw up. Saying this while knowing that it was impossible to make a training match appointment prior to the competition was simply disgusting behavior! If FTW ignored it, then they would appear even more arrogant. If FTW paid attention to it, then they would fall into the trap. At this time, someone spoke upCC 3U.Sleep: Come fight. RR.Moonlit: I wont show you mercy either. TPT.Auroral: Although FTW beat us with a zero sweep in the finals, itll be easy for us to do the same for you. Asleep, Moonlit, Fu Li These star players who usually never made any sound online really stepped up, causing the domestic fans to explode on the spot! Theyd originally felt wronged, felt like they were fighting alone. Theyd originally thought that theyd be fed sh*t by IN but now they felt great! The China competition zone was badass! There was no fear! You want to make an appointment for a training match with the competition zone champion? Have you asked the top four yet? Does FTW even need to make a move? The top four are already enough to wake you up! Theyd really never thought that the China competition zone that had been cowering for three years still contained teams that dared to step out, and furthermore, there were even three of them INs mid-laner was a bit surprised by this. The audience were just there to watch the show and werent afraid of blowing things up. The foreign players whod originally been ridiculing the China competition zone also waved their flags and shouted, saying fight, fight, quickly fight! IN was just running their mouths. How could they really make an appointment for a training match? There were no benefits if they won, and it would be shameful if they lost. Originally, IN had allowed Otee to shout at will, but now, he was ordered to shut up, and they even sent out an official announcement. They were all old players. Who didnt understand this way of doing things? They all sent out disdainful expression packs one after another, in all sorts of styles. Otee couldnt help himself and spoke up again, Why should I fight with you guys? Are you trying to get our tactics before the game? Do you think were stupid? What are you thinking? You guys are stupid! The internet was noisy and bustling, but all of FTW was training in isolation. Even their cell phones had been confiscated, and they ignored everything that was going on outside. Where would they have the time to worry about these things? Cherishing every last minute was the real hard truth. As the local team of the host competition zone, if FTW did a round trip in the competition, the players would all drown in the saliva from being spat on, okay? The pressure increased as the start date approached. Not to mention the three little ones, even Wei Xiao spoke less. Everyone wanted to draw one day out into two days, and they didnt dare waste a single minute of it. Chen Feng was afraid that their psychological burden would be too heavy, which could affect their play. The closer they came to the opening game, the less training he arranged for them. He even prevented them from training on their own day and night. Just maintain things, its already very good. These were words that the poison-tongued Coach Chen Feng had been saying the most recently. Tang Chen comforted him in privateCCChen Feng, who was as gentle as the spring breeze to the players, was a grumpy cannon who was online flaming at people when he was in front of him. Tang Chen scratched at his hair. You shouldnt be too nervous, either. As the sixth person on the field, how could Chen Feng not be nervous! Three years A full three years How many thorns and bumps in the road had they gone through before finally seeing the dawn? Saying that he wasnt nervous would be a lie! On the day that lots were drawn, everyone from FTW sat under the stage and watched as Brother Tang used his big hand to draw their opponent. Yes, even Chen Feng didnt go up this time. It was God Tang who represented the team. He was very nervous and recited this mantra in his heart a hundred times, Dont be Y1, dont be EVE, dont be Pro, dont be L&P When the results were announced, everyone held their breath out of fear that they would be eaten alive by last years top four. Who who was it Which team was it! It wasnt just the whole FTW team. The entire China competition zone was holding their breath. The fans almost exploded the scrolling comments, Help, Im about to die from nervousness. If its the Team of Gods, Ill show you guys what it looks like to die on the spot! Brother, me too. Sister, me too. Daddy, dont scare me QAQ! As a result, countless eyes were fixed on the big screen when the results were announced. The lines in the table for the top 16 matches appeared on the screen one by one. FTW was in the fifth row, and their opponent was Holy sh*t! IN??? Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road! Congratulations to IN for getting the hammering they asked for. Shit, if FTW loses to IN, Im going to go blow up their base with explosives on my back! Impossible, impossible. FTW definitely wont lose to IN. The passers-by who didnt know what had happened all asked about it, and fans smashed over a series of screenshots, which infuriated the whole network. Little Ning was clueless. Team IN? Which competition zone Yue Wenle: CL. Bai Cai blinked. What a coincidence Wei Xiao looked at him, What, do you know them? Bai Cai had handed over his own account to Brother Liu, but he still had his Gossip Emperor account and was very clear on the first-hand news. He paused for a moment, then snuck it out for Wei Xiao to see. Wei Xiao hurriedly swept through it, then grinned. Interesting. Bai Cai: A sentence echoed in Brother Cais brain when he looked at himCCyour smile is like that of a vicious dogs. After returning to the base, Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle also learned of the storm that had swept through the internet. Little Ning was burning with passion after seeing Asleep, Moonlit, and the others speak up for them. Well hammer them to death! Yue Wenle crunched, like he was biting down on INs throat. 3:0. Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. Otee, right? He scolded the China competition zone a total of 15 times. How about Taking down his dog head 15 times! Bai Cai: Lu Feng: Yes. Chen Feng: Hed racked his brains and ended up drawing all night. Coach Chen Feng had tried his best to cheer up his players and had even lost several strands of hair. Unexpectedly Their opponent had been so generous that theyd sent over a morale boosting gift bag in advance. Everyone in FTW was now fired up and ready to fight. Chapter 222: The letter C printed on the shadow thiefs scarlet cloak belonged to Close. Everyone in the club praised Brother Tangs lucky hands. Brother Liu even specifically asked the kitchen to make him his favorite seafood taco. God Tang was flattered. I just drew at random. Yes, but hed gotten a big, passion-inspiring gift bag. This time, Chen Feng didnt scold the competition committee. Putting the lot drawing session at the very end was quite good, since all they had to do was fight when they saw their opponent. They could bring this kind of mood straight into the competition! The results of the draw affected both sides. Compared with FTW, who was filled with fighting spirit, the whole of IN was disheartened seeing these results. It wasnt that they were afraid of FTWCCthey hadnt respected this fallen Team of Gods from the startCCthey just felt that the situation was awkward. Otee had been ridiculed by the crowd, and the club had spent a long time telling him off. For better or worse, he was still in other peoples territory. What was he bragging for? He should be wary of getting attacked by fans. Only then had Otee stopped. The club figured that since there were 16 teams, they shouldnt have the bad luck to draw FTW. When FTW was eliminated by other teams, then the page would turn on this chapter and it would end. Unexpectedly INs coach pulled Otee in for another round of telling him off. Otee had been oppressed for several days and couldnt suppress his own anger any longer. He said furiously, Just fight and be done with it! After we win against FTW, everything Laozi said will be true! INs coach: Otee: Is it even possible for us to lose to FTW? Other than Close, everyone on that team is a noob. As long as we target Close until he dies, theyll be nothing but a load of crap. INs jungler Harper: Their new jungler is very strong. Yes, although Quiet is a newcomer, his strength cant be that bad since Close gave up his jungler position. How strong can he be? This is the globals. Maybe hell be so scared hell wet his pants as soon as he goes up! And theres the new system This new competition system has both advantages and disadvantages. FTW will definitely take the shadow thief in the first match. There are only a few line-ups that work with the shadow thief, and theyll definitely lose as long as we target them to death. INs coach didnt interrupt, but he heard what was said very clearly. Otee was a fellow with a grumpy temper, but his brain was still somewhat useful. The club had initially acquiesced by remaining silent when he first started shouting online. Regardless of where the traffic came from, becoming popular through hate was still a type of popularity. It was just that theyd had the bad luck to draw FTW for their 16 into 8 game. But it didnt seem like such a big deal when thinking about it from another angle As the host, FTW had attracted a lot of attention. If they were able to beat FTW, they would be able to attract peoples attention even if they ultimately fell in the 8 into 4 games. See? Theyd only stirred up a round of hype with FTW, and there was already an investor approaching them, testing the waters. If they really won against FTW INs coach: FTW will definitely take double shadow and double frost in the first battle of freedom match. We While they might say that they didnt pay much attention to them, in actual fact, theyd done quite a lot of homework on FTW. Double shadow meant the death knight and shadow thief, and double frost was the ice mage and frost hunterCCthis was FTWs winning line-up and would likely be pulled out in the first matchs battle of freedom. After all, it was their first time facing the new competition system, so it was reasonable to expect that FTW would come up with their most stable line-up under circumstances where they didnt have enough time to prepare. And all they had to do was to use the remaining time to come up with the right strategy as soon as possible. The pros and cons of the competition system depended on how people made use of it. At first glance, it seemed to be beneficial for FTW, but if everyone knew what they were going to use, then it also made them easy to target. Of course, FTW, which had fallen into Fu Lis trap a long time ago, had already reworked their shadow thief line-up. But it was impossible for an external team to know this. A day passed by in the blink of an eye, and the summer global finals began. There was no competition on the first day; there were only three opening competitions and one performance competition. They were all entertainment games, but the popularity for them was no lower than that of the main competition. The arena could hold tens of thousands of people, but obtaining a ticket was still difficult. FTW had special guest seats and came in through the staff entrance, settling themselves in early. Brother Cai took selfies like crazy, then worked hard to pick out one from the dozens hed snapped. He applied a set of filters, then calmly posted on Weibo, The venues very lively ^_^. The tone of his message was low-key and subtle, and his pose in the photo looked natural and casual. If one didnt know that hed been taking photos for 20 minutes, then they really would believe in his casualness! The fans had sharp eyes, and shrill screams rang out when they saw that they were at the special guest seating. Ahhhhh, my FTW, represent! Brother Cai, who did you come with? Is it our jungler king? Let me see, hurry and let me see! It came with a little penguin emoji. Bai Cai: Old Wei. Wei Xiao turned his head. Hm? There was a click as Brother Cai successfully captured a shot. Wei Xiao: ??? Bai Cai: Showing off some love. Wei Xiao: Bai Cai originally wanted to help Wei Xiao add filters to the photo, but as a result to hell with fixing it! This brat had pale skin, a beautiful appearance, and long legs. It was an inadvertent glance over, yet it already gave off the aura of a scum man who could charm thousands of girls! Brother Cai felt sour and decided not to be polite to Wei Xiao. He tossed it up on Weibo directly and sent out a new post, Your jungler king. Great, he was even more sour now. There were only 500 comments for his selfie, but this new photo broke through 1000 comments almost instantly! And hed spent 20 minutes taking his own photo and 20 minutes editing it! There was something on Wei Xiaos mind, and his eyes kept floating towards the stage. Bai Cai certainly knew what he was thinking. Take it easy, hey. Wei Xiao glared at him. Heartless and uncaring. Brother Cai, whod been focused on interacting with their fans, was left speechless, Wake up, you. Will our captain make mistakes? Wei Xiaos mood was a mess. The competition committee is too much. The new competition system has been released for such a long time, why do they have to play around with the old one? Dont mess around if you cant afford to use it for the opening game! Bai Cai wasnt worried at all. Dont worry, its fine. Hes Glorys great demon king. Wei Xiaos tone was bad-tempered, The captain hasnt soloed in a long time! Bai Cai put away his cell phone and comforted this irritable jungler king, Dont you have any awareness of Old Gs level? Is there any need to be like this. Wei Xiao: Old G is very strong, okay?! Hes been wanting to bully the captain for a long time now! Bai Cai: Wei Xiao gritted his teeth. Damn it, if Old G dares to bully the captain, then Ill go and kill him afterwards! Brother Cai was unable to coax him, so he bowed his head and continued going through his WeiboCC Theyd had over a week of special training, and he hadnt touched his cell phone much at all. There was certainly a reason why Brother Cai and Wei Xiao were able to sit in the special guest seating. This was the opening event for the globals. Other than the participating teams, others werent qualified to sit here. Was FTW participating in the opening games? Of course! There were three opening games. One was 5v5, one was doubles, and the last one was a singles game. All of them would be kicked off by the last years champion and runner up. The 5v5 game was between L&P and Y1, the doubles was between Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran against Asleep and Cong Yi, and the singles was between Close and Gary. Last year, Asleep and Cong Yi had only been in third place for the doubles, but because one person from the runner-up team in the doubles retired last year, they ceded their position, and Asleep and Cong Yi had come to take part in the opening game. Wei Xiao wasnt concerned about anyone else. His heart and eyes were filled with his own captain. Hed kissed him several times before leaving. Lu Feng had held onto him by the waist. Its all right. Wei Xiao: Of course its all right. Nothing can possibly happen, absolutely nothing! This tone it was completely clear that something was up with him! Lu Feng: You dont believe me? Wei Xiao was like a little kitten stamping its paws. He said immediately, I believe you! Lu Feng rubbed noses with him. Then, whats the panic for? Wei Xiao: Im not panicking! It was just that his voice shook a little. Lu Feng kissed his brow and said gently, Ill use the shadow thief. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng: Dont worry, I wont die even once. Wei Xiao breathed in lightly, then hugged him tight. He rubbed forcefully against his shoulder and neck, then murmured quietly. Lu Fengs heart softened when he heard him. CCI dont dare imagine how it used to be for you. Lu Feng fully understood this vague and ambiguous sentence. Three years, three full years. Lu Feng had stood alone in a strange arena, faced cheers from all over the world, and won one singles championship after another. The feeling of holding the trophy alone, he didnt want to experience that feeling again. The trophy wasnt heavy. But it was better when it was held up by five people. Wei Xiao couldnt explain how he felt to anyone. Nervous, flustered. It was just an opening game, and the results didnt matter. It was a singles game, and it was Close. What was there to be nervous about? What was there to feel flustered about? In Brother Cais words: Youre simply being unreasonable! Yes, this kind of feeling was really unreasonable. Nothing would happen, and it was a performance game where he wouldnt lose. Lu Feng had even promised that he wouldnt even die once. But He couldnt keep his heart from pounding, couldnt keep his legs and feet from feeling restless, and he couldnt control his rapid and chaotic breathing. Wei Xiao wouldnt be this nervous even if he was the one in the arena. But when he looked at Lu Feng on the stage and saw the lonely Lu Feng, he grew nervous. Was he afraid of Lu Feng losing? Afraid of this myth collapsing? Afraid of the end of a legend? No He was just afraid that Lu Feng would be alone. He was afraid of him feeling lonely. The 5v5 game was naturally the finale. The first game was the singles. The entire venue exploded when Close came out. At the end of the day, it was a home game, and it was being held in China. Closes popularity was enough to stun the entire global audience. He came out wearing the FTW team uniform. The dark black team uniform was like the night sky that had absorbed all light. He maintained eternal silence and coldness even under dazzling fireworks. Fans shouted his name, and it was as though time had turned back to one year ago, two years ago, three years ago It seemed like theyd gone back to the time when hed kept watch over the screen, staying up in the early hours of the morning despite the time difference just to see him win the championship trophy. The solo king. The pillar of the China competition zone. A brilliant legend under lofty Glory! Wei Xiaos eyes were red, and he clutched at the back of Brother Cais hand. Bai Cai sighed, and the tip of his nose stung. Who wasnt a Close fan? Who hadnt watched him hold up the beam for the whole competition zone? Who didnt want him to be brilliant forever? Even the hosts voice sounded a little choked when the exclusive battle song that belonged to the singles champion finished playing and it was time to speak. Welcome Close, please take your seat. Lu Feng nodded slightly, then went to the competitors seat. The moment he sat down, he connected his peripherals and put on his headphones, isolating the stage from the canyon. Gary also went to his seat. Both sides were ready. There was a new competition system for the singles and doubles, but this global opening game would continue with the old competition system. When the long-lost single player canyon appeared on the screen, it felt like an isolated world. The new competition system had started with Close, and the old competition system would end with Close. The gears of fate kept moving forward, but it didnt erase the past. It would always be there. The Glory that belonged to Close. platform. Because it was an exhibition game, the BP segment was cancelled. Shocking, shrill screams sounded through the venue the moment the audience saw Close take the shadow thief. There were two shadow thief championship skins. The first one was the shadow thief champion skin that Lu Feng had chosen after the Team of Gods won the team championship three years ago. The second one was the championship skin from last years singles competition. Lu Feng had ended the competition with a shadow thief, so hed gotten another championship skin. Two champion skins, all from the same player. The letter C printed on the shadow thiefs scarlet cloak belonged to Close. The author has something to say: Ying, who doesnt love a great demon king? [Wei Little Xiaos dangerous glare] Chapter 223: The reborn King! Close used the crimson blade skin, which was the skin from last years singles championship. Coincidentally, Gary had also taken the shadow thief, using the champion skin from the Team of Gods three years ago. One had a crimson cloak and was a lonely king. One had a black hood and was a cold and quiet lone wolf. The fans burst into tears again when both heroes landed in the canyon at the same time. The shadow thief of the present. The shadow thief from the past. Close, who was on his own. Close, who was from the Team of Gods. For The Win Exactly which Close was it? The scrolling comments were boiling with activity, and the fans brain holes were bigger than the heavens. This was especially the case for the CP fans from the Team of Gods, whod managed to abuse themselves with their own brains. Why did Gary take this skin? F*ck, I suspect that Old Dog Yuan did this on purpose! Garys the one on the stage. What does this have to do with Old Bandit Yuan? Is there any doubt that Gary listens to Marshal? If you dont understand, then ask. Whats the point in Yuan Ze doing this on purpose? Deliberately having Gary take the shadow thief, then purposely having him use the Team of Gods championship skin! But what does that mean? Someone got it. Damn it, is he trying to get Lulu to say goodbye to the past? Upstairs, talk if you want to, but why do you have to take out a knife?! Im broken, this old ladys heart and liver has been stabbed to pieces! No way, no way, my Scum Man Yuan would never be so gentle. However, many people remembered that in the Team of Gods three years ago How many times had Close stayed up late to make up for lost time, while Yuan Zes figure prepared and served coffee or tea? The new singles competition mode had already been online for a long time. Players had already fully adapted to the terrain of Sky Island and were also interested in this survival mode. Recently, a ranking competition had also been launched, and the players were all participating enthusiastically. Now, it felt strange seeing this long-lost, slender canyon again. This was the singles competition from the past. It was the old lane fighting mode, and it was a singles competition that required maneuvers, development, and the talent to find the right opportunity in order to show off ones ability. The commentators had already begun to speak. The invited guest commentator smiled and said, Its the singles competition that hasnt been seen in a long time, and Close, who also hasnt been seen in a long time. Commentator Brother Mouth: In the team competition, Close is primarily on the top lane. Its true that I havent seen him take the shadow thief in a long time. I wonder if hell be unused to it? Thats really hard to say. Ive heard that Gary has been constantly practicing with the shadow thief recently, and it seems that he wants to use it in the battle of freedom. Garys eight light arcs are steady Reasonably speaking, eight light arcs are already enough; the damage from nine light arcs is overkill. But the difference in attack range is significant. Then it depends on the players positioning. Nine light arcs depends on the players state. If its not used often, then Im afraid Brother Mouth was a Close fan, the kind where hed clearly stamped himself with the label. This back and forth between him and the guest commentator seemed standard, but in fact, everyone who was familiar with him could sense his nervousness. Between the lines of the conversation was respect for the great demon king, the details of which were: Close has been playing the top-lane recently and hadnt used the shadow thief in a long time! If he cant brush out nine light arcs, then its only because hes unused to using the hero now! If he loses, it doesnt mean anything! Um Wei Xiao grew even more nervous when he heard this! The live audience was nervous as well. The exception were the haters, who didnt say another word before starting their celebrations, uncaring of whether or not they would end up being slapped in the face. They would raise up the flag first, and if it ended up toppling over and stabbing them through, they could worry about thatlater. I get it, Close cant brush out nine light arcs anymore. Why even talk about light arcs? Does your God Lu even remember the shadow thief skills? Old G, hold back a bit, okay? If you beat Close until he cries, you might get blocked by Close fans at the entrance to the arena. There was no need for the live broadcast room managers to start banning people, because the haters all disappeared after 30 seconds. All concerns became unnecessary, and all questioning became unnecessary. In the face of Closes absolute power, there was only the papapa sound of face slapping. 30 seconds into the start of the game, the second wave of lane soldiers hadnt yet arrived at their destination when the shadow thief dressed in crimson made a sudden attack and reached level 2 ahead of Gary. He used a back stab, his attack landing accurately and sparking off a critical hit, causing Gary to lose half of his health bar by the time he was able to react! The commentators exploded, Its Closes signature blood stab! Even Gary cant escape it. Close might be old, but hes just as vigorous as ever! Wei Little Xiao, whod just let out a breath of relief, grew unhappy when he heard this sentence. He complained quietly to Bai Cai, Do they know how to speak? My captains only 21, what do they mean, old?! Bai Cai: There was no need to answer. This little lunatic wouldnt listen if he said anything, anyway. His eyes were practically glued onto the stage. Although it was an exhibition game, the organizers were rich and generous and had transformed it into a holographic projection. There was no need to describe the joy of seeing the fight in 3D with the naked eye. The fighting between the two handsome heroes provided tens of thousands of people with a vivid visual experience. It wasnt just visuals, but also the sound. The shadow thiefs skills were relatively low-key prior to level 6, and there were no amazing special effects, but Close and Gary stunned the audience with their extraordinary positioning and micro-manipulation. They controlled the lane, snatching soldiers. Waiting, followed by a sudden strike. The close combat fighting made everyones blood boil! Both sides knew each other very well and didnt hold back right from the start. There was no need to test things out, no need to circle around each other. They focused on any flaws that were revealed and immediately went for blood. Its not clear without comparing things, but its shocking once you compare them. Ive seen Garys live broadcast before, and his shadow thief really is very strong. But in front of Close its like a bronze player meeting a king. FTWs inherited shadow thief didnt come from exaggeration! The great demon kings badass! Great demon king, snatch up First Blood! It was like hed heard the cry from the fans. The shadow thiefs crimson blade flickered, and after breaking through the defence of Garys shadow thief, he turned back and stabbed the other side! Rend and bleed, triggering another critical hit! The commentator spoke at an amazing speed, Is it a back stab from that angle? Although its a sideways waist stab, the system judges it to be from the back! This is too tricky. Its likely that Gary didnt expect that, either. Although he lost his shadow attack, there was still room for him to shift. Based on his hp just now, he wouldve been able to survive as long as he avoided a critical hit! Unfortunately, Close triggered a critical hit right at the ranges upper limit, causing the damage to double. Garys death is guaranteed. First Blood! platform. Close took an unquestionable First Blood. In the old competition system, the game wouldnt end once one side died. A player needed to blow up the other sides crystal in order to win a singles game under the old system. Gary resurrected quickly, and the battle wasnt over yet. At the end of the day, Old G was still a top global player. He was able to adjust quickly, and managed to keep up in farm despite being sent to a quick death. He stopped trying to fight head-on with Close and instead tried to seize an opportunity to attack from the sides, wanting to catch Close off guard. Upon seeing this scene, even Brother Cai could figure out the ending. His win is stable. Wei Xiao was still sitting up straight, his back so stiff as though someone was pointing a gun at him. Bai Cai: Relax, he cant lose. Wei Xiao: He cant die. Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao stared at the two men in the canyon. The captain promised me that he wouldnt die a single time. Bai Cai: The old competition system wouldnt eliminate a player after their death, so dying once didnt matter. If they strategized well, then they could even turn the tables after dying three times. This sentence from Wei Xiao Although Closes death rate in the singles was very low, it couldnt be guaranteed Brother Cai: Isnt this just adding pressure to yourself for no reason? What had originally started off as simple mode had now become hell mode. Wei Xiao grew even more nervous. Bai Cai didnt dare to continue talking. He was now a little nervous, too. He had a vague sense of Wei Xiaos mood. The last singles competition. The last global singles duel in the old competition system. This perfect performance given by Close would become a part of Glorys history, forever. No one would be able to surpass him anymoreCC CCBecause the old competition system would begone. The game progressed to 12 minutes at which the most exciting wave of fights began. Gary had remained watchful but dormant for a long time and had finally found an opportunity. He took the initiative to attack, stacking up his damage one second before Close. He made use of the small lane soldiers, made use of the bushes to block vision, and had even stacked up his equipment for attack speed Everyones heart leapt up to their throats. The great demon king wont be able to run from this! Wei Xiao held the armrests of his chair in a death grip, his pale finger joints bulging and white, the green veins growing more and more obvious under the paleness of his skin. Brother Cai was nervous enough to explode. This, this He wanted to rush into the canyon and give the captain a bunch of heals! His support instincts were breaking out, okay?! Just when everyone thought that Close was doomed and Gary was sure to get even Lu Fengs operations were dazzling to the eyes. They all stared at the holographic projection that would amplify all mistakes, but the shadow thief in the crimson cloak didnt make any mistakes at all. He was precise, operating at the limit, and extremely fast. Even Gary was shocked by his actions, and his character clearly froze for a fraction of a second. Lu Feng seized this opportunity and used a shadow attack to move sideways, avoiding Garys mark. It was broken! Gary lost a layer of marks! Now, he could either continue to accumulate energy and brush out eight light arcs or give up and release seven light arcs immediately. But the problem was Seven light arcs wasnt enough to break through the invincibility effect provided by the equipment. Only the overflow damage dealt by anything above eight arcs would be able to penetrate before the invincibility effect ended and disappeared. At the same time, doubling the damage would be enough to kill Close. Gary was riding a tiger and couldnt get off, but Close wasnt about to wait for him. Garys eight light arcs were gone, while Closes nine light arcs fell from the sky. F*ck! Even the salted fish vegetable was excited. Wei Xiao didnt speak. He stared at the holographic projection, at the calm and silent man behind the projection, and his heart beat very quickly. The light arcs covered the sky, and gorgeous special effects seemed to rain down light on the entire venue. The audience screamed non-stop, their passion inspired by this exciting battle. Theyd also been amazed by these gorgeous special effects. At this moment, everyone was bathed in glory! Victory. Close won without dying a single time! Loud cheering rang out when he took off his headphones. Extended, non-stop applause, heart-rending, gut-wrenching shrill cries The live broadcast studio was filled with Closes glory The global audience watching online were all stunned. It wasnt that they didnt know of Close, and it wasnt that they didnt understand why the China competition zone couldnt remain calm. It was because they were still shocked by the feelings and emotions that had charged up in such a rush. The persistence of the players. The persistence of the fans. They had become each others faith since a long time ago. Lu Feng got up and bowed to all the applause. On the holographic projection, the lone wolf from three years ago disappeared, and the king whod been reborn was left standing on the stage. He stood tall amidst the splendor and looked towards the warmth up ahead. Lu Fengs gaze landed on Wei Xiaos position. He couldnt see Wei Xiao in the darkness, but he could sense him. Like the scorching sun shining in the sky, giving off infinite glory. He was there. Tears burst from his eyes. Wei Xiao knew that the camera was coming, but he couldnt hold back his tears at all. Fortunately, Bai Cai was crying even harder than he was. When the director shifted the cameras over and showed these two big boys crying like this, the scrolling comments that had blown up the screen changed focus, from Close is badass, to FTW is badass. It was no longer just Close. It was really no longer just Close. The perfect ending for the past was now the best note with which to start up a new movement! xiin: i think i forgot to post yesterday Chapter 224: Wei Xiao: Before I met you, I treated each word like gold. Wei Xiao and Bai Cai went to the backstage lounge to meet up with Lu Feng, whod just gotten off the arena stage. Wei Xiao rushed over to hug Lu Feng despite the staff members around them. Fortunately, everyone was so excited that they didnt think too much of it; they were just very moved by his actions. They felt that the mood within FTW was really good and that there were sincere and enthusiastic feelings among the players of the team. Brother Cai shivered, then accepted the things that had to be dealt with from the staff members hands before hurriedly closing the door. Although there was no one else in the lounge, Wei Xiao still didnt dare to kiss Lu Feng. There was still surveillance! No matter how excited he was, Wei Xiao was still cautious about such things. It was one thing for fans to ship CPs and faint over them, but coming out of the closet was something else entirely. Wei Xiao wouldnt joke around with Lu Fengs future. Lu Feng noticed his red and swollen eyes, and his voice was warm when he spoke, Its just an exhibition game. Wei Xiao shook his head. Its the last singles game. Lu Feng understood what he meant. This was indeed the last singles game. There was no trophy for it and no bonus either, but it belonged to the last singles game of the old era. The crimson blood blade had defeated the nightmare of god (skin names). Close had conquered his old self. The missing goodbye from three years ago had finally been made up for. Only by saying farewell and putting down the past could one lighten up and win the future! Wei Xiao wasnt the type who put on affectations. Hed already cried, and hed already gotten excited. What was left now was only excitement. I have to say, Captain, you were too handsome just now! Brother Cai: He really wanted to take the camera with him and sneak out! Lu Feng smiled. Wei Xiao was unable to stop his rainbow farts. As soon as his rainbow fart switch was turned on, it would put even commentator Brother Mouth to shame. It was super professional, super awesome, and held thorough analysis. It even Gary, who was in the other backstage lounge, sneezed. I suspect that Little Lunatic Q is cursing me. Yuan Ze: Dont be silly, get rid of the suspect part. Gary: They were both singles competition players, but why was the difference in treatment so big after they returned backstage! It was bad enough that there was no one to coax him after he lost the game, but he even had to face his captains howling storm. Old G felt bitterness in his heart! In fact, Gary was also quite regretful. Although he knew he couldnt win, it was difficult to reconcile himself to this loss. This really wasnt a simple performance game; it also meant a lot to him. This years singles competition still followed the old rules where each team could only register one player, while the regional competition had been cancelled, and singles competition would be held directly on a global scale. Yuan Ze had signed up for this years singles competition, and Old G had been willing to give up his quota. Although Yuan Ze had also signed up for the doubles competition with him, this meant that Gary was doomed to miss the singles competition this year. This opening match was his first and last singles game today, and hed lost like that Yuan Ze patted him on the forehead. Your big brother will avenge you. Old Gs heart felt warm. Alright then! His skills were inferior and he deserved to lose, but the captain would definitely screw over Close. Gary cheered up again! Seeing that Wei Xiao was about to continue on until hed blown out a ten thousand word rainbow fart and break his own records, Bai Cai interjected quietly, The doubles competition seems to have started Wei Xiao: Whats so good about the doubles game? The captains game just now was the definition of wonderful Lu Feng was helpless against him. Did you run out of composition paper while studying? Wei Xiao: ?? Lu Feng laughed at him, With such a large vocabulary, is 800 words enough? Wei Xiao smiled until his eyes curved, speaking in a low voice, Before I met you, I treated each word like gold. The surveillance was unable to catch sound, but Brother Cai was able to hear it! Caicai, whod just been forcibly choked with a belly full of dog food, just wanted to make a break for the door. For better or worse, they finally made it to the audience stands. The doubles opening game still had to be watched. Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran were old acquaintances, and Asleep and Cong Yi were fellow brothers. Regardless of whether it was from the perspective of learning or supporting their brothers, both reasons meant that they should watch the game. When they sat down, there was an extra Li Chun beside them. Li Chun was nervous and anxious and couldnt sit still. Wei Xiao: What are you flustered for? Its an opening game, an entertainment match. Li Chun had been helping out backstage and hadnt watched the singles, so he really didnt know that Wei Xiao had been more flustered than he was. Li Chun: The captain and vice-captain have to play well! Wei Xiao was calm. Dont worry. Li Chun sighed. When will I be able to have a heart as big as Brother Xiao? He was very sincere when he said this. Hed known Wei Xiao for so long, and theyd played together through a whole season. Hed never seen Wei Xiao in a panic or acting nervous. The skin on Wei Xiaos face was as thick as city walls. Youll get used to it with more experience. Li Chun nodded, having been thoroughly fooled. Even if he was sitting on the other side next to their captain, Brother Cai could still hear the conversation clearly. He rolled his eyes: Be a little less shameless, Wei Xiao. Do you really think that no one will watch the recording from the last game? You cried like a fool, yet you still feel like you can teach others life lessons! Because theyd delayed for a while backstage, the doubles teams had already gone up on stage and had even finished selecting their talents. Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran were obviously in entertainment mode. They took out the bird hunter and soul warlock talents that had just been released recently for the game. Kim Sung-hyun was using the bird hunter, and Li Heran used the soul warlock. These two talents were quite interesting. There had been a video release about them with the newly launched expansion. The bird hunter and soul warlock were brothers whod grown up together. They were both beloved by nature; one could communicate with birds, while the other could link up with all living things and feel the power of their souls. In the expansion film, they werent of the human race, but had gradually gained human form and humanity after coming into contact with human beings. They werent of the demon family but were set as part of the spirit family instead. The bird hunter was the first to come into contact with humans. He knew a pet bird who begged him to help its owner. The bird hunter loved all birds and couldnt bear to see them cry, so he tried to save the seriously injured man. When the man opened his eyes, he was almost shocked all the way to heaven by the bird hunter he saw in front of him, The bird hunter had no fixed form and would appear in a form based on the other partys expectations. The rescued man saw an angel. The bird hunter was in contact with birds all year round, and he was naive and simple. He had absolutely no understanding of human greed and ambition. The man soon saw through him and became interested in the bird hunters power, wanting to use him to regain his own power. The bird hunter didnt care about this human being, but he couldnt resist the birds crying and could only help him again and again. Eavesdropping, surveillance, and seizing power. The bird hunter slowly gained a human body and took on human colors. The feathers on his forehead changed from pure white to a dark gray, and his eyes changed from a nearly transparent silver to a dark black. By the time the soul warlock found him again, he almost couldnt recognize him. Greed, ambition, desire. By the time the bird hunter came to realize the truth, he was already sitting on a lonely throne, with blood flowing under it like a river. Hed lost his ability to communicate with birds, lost his ability to domesticate birds, and also lost his extraordinary vision and insight. Hed been reduced to an ordinary human being. And the man whose life hed saved stabbed him through the chest. The bird hunter looked at him in shock. Why? The man: Because you deserve to die! His throne, his country, and his subjects had all been taken away by this devil! When the bird hunter woke up, the soul warlock was attached to his filthy body. The bird hunter: I The soul warlocks voice was ethereal, One persons evil is two peoples burden. Mother will once again regard you tenderly. Their mother was nature. They were children whod been abandoned by nature. The bird hunter was tortured. You didnt do anything wrong. Why did you Bear this sin for me. The soul warlock: Because were in this together. From birth, all the way through growing up. Theyd been together like this for thousands of years. The blood stained bird hunter still had a pure soul. After all, they had never really been human. As soon as the expansion video was released, the fans were instantly stirred up and rushed to the canyon to try out the new talents. However, once they tried it Forget it, forget it, what kind of skills did this bird hunter require! It was bad enough that it had two forms, but all eight skills had two stages. How could ordinary players understand it? Even professional players had to familiarize themselves with it for a long time before being able to feel out some potential combos. The talent had only just come out, and many of them were still waiting for further development and research. The R&D departments belonging to the various clubs were scurrying around analyzing the talents intensively. For example, when the shadow thief first came out, no one had known that it was possible to brush out nine light arcs. The soul warlock was relatively simpler in comparison. They just had to start up the ultimate move and attach themselves to someone else. Attaching themselves to a team member would strengthen various stats. It was a very powerful support talent. At first, players had thought that it was a simple and easy to use talent that could just lie around waiting to be carried to victory. Unexpectedly, the upper limit for this talent was amazing when used by high-level players! The attachment came with a symbiosis mode. Once symbiosis was turned on, the player could use the talent skills of the player they were attached to at the same time. That meant the soul warlock could use the bird hunters skills! Although the power of the skills was reduced by 50%, it was still sufficiently overwhelming. When it was used well, it was like a f*cking math problem where 1+1=3! Coincidentally, Cong Yi had also taken the soul warlock, while Asleep had taken the berserker thief. Wei Xiao said to Brother Cai, You deserve to have a soul warlock too. The hair on Brother Cais body stood on end, ! Wei Xiao: When we go back, Ill use the shadow thief, and you can attach to me. Using two shadow thieves in the arena, wouldnt that be cool? Brother Cai wanted to shout for help, To-to hell with two. I cant even brush out a single light arc Wei Xiao regarded him with disdain. Dream a little. The salted fish vegetables dream was to be a salted fish vegetable! This doubles game was interesting. Kim Sung-hyuns bird hunter accompanied by Li Heran and Cong Yis soul warlocks. The audience was in high spirits as soon as they saw the new talents come out. Who cared about who won or who lost? Theyd first open their eyes and expand their horizons! The new talents didnt have any advanced skins and only had some associated skins, which were basically similar to the original skin with different colors. This was a major feature in Glory. Releasing new talents prior to the global competition meant that they were waiting for the contestants to win with the new talents in order to give them new skins! The bird hunters original skin was very valiant. When in spirit form, the feathers on his head were a clean, pure white, and his skin color was also very pale. He had a body like an elf and wore light colored clothing. Although he didnt have wings, he was able to rise up and float in the air. He had no weapons and relied on thousands of birds to execute all his skills. The special effects for his ultimate move, Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix, were stunning and beautiful. The soul warlock couldnt use attachment until level six. He had a silent character, and although he had the dark hair and gray eyes that represented the demon family, he displayed a sense of tranquility and harmony. He seemed separate from all the earthly matters, looking far into the distance. He had a quiet temperament and held compassion for all mankind. Wei Xiao spoke up abruptly, What a pity. Lu Feng turned to ask, Hm? Wei Xiao: Its a pity that I wasnt invited to join the casual player competition. After the three opening games came a casual player game. The so-called casual player game involved selecting lucky players to compete with professional players. It was a 5v5 game. There were six professional players whod been selected through votes submitted by the players, and they were: Close, Yan Jiang, Yuan Ze, Xie He, Kim Sung-hyun, and Gary. The remaining four spots in the teams would be filled by players who were selected at random from the live audience, forming two teams for a 5v5 game. Wei Xiao: If I could participate, I would use the soul warlock and use attachment on my captain! The real double shadow thief, give a try! Brother Cai mused out loud, Maybe youll get drawn? Wei Xiao: ! platform. Brother Cai: There are also number plates for the special guest seating. You still have hope. Even if it was a one in several ten thousand chance. Wei Xiao came back to his senses and quickly handed his seat number to Brother Cai. Hold it! Bai Cai: ??? Wei Xiao stared at him. If I dont win, then you need to quickly return Moneys Porsche! The white cabbage had a shocked expression on his face. Why! What did this have to do with his Porsche! Wait, what did this have to do with him at all? Why did he have to take Wei Xiaos seat number? Wei Xiao watched him affectionately. If the director had cut the camera over to them at this moment in time, then the Little Bai (Xiao Bai) CP sisters would spiral up into the sky in joy. So sweet, so sweet, it was definitely real sugar! However, reality was cruel. This sugar was so fake it couldnt be any more fake. Whether or not I can fly doubles with the captain is all up to you. Bai Cai finally understood what he meant. You Wei Xiao: God Bai, you can do it! He was even calling him God. Wei Little Xiao was being very serious. Bai Cai didnt dare to give him his seat number back, but he was also growing nervous. Luck is a very metaphysical thing. Its a one in tens of thousands of a chance. I Wei Xiao: You won a one in a million chance draw for a Porsche! Bai Cai: Damn it, he was riding a tiger, and it was impossible to get off! Chapter 225: Please type out Brother Cai is badass on the scrolling comments! Wei Xiao comforted him (dont ask, Brother Cai doesnt know why it became him being the one getting comforted, either), Theres still the doubles and the 5v5, whichll take at least an hour and a half. Take my seat number and work hard on it. I believe in you. Bai Cai: To hell with working hard on it! He was getting even more nervous! Lu Feng said quietly, Watch the game. The two of them had whispered for so long that the vinegar king had gotten jealous. Wei Xiao gave Brother Cai a firm look, then shifted slightly closer to Lu Feng and carefully watched the game. A fight had already broken out in the canyon while they were talking. The doubles competition map was wider than the singles competition one, and it also held two jungle zones. Although it was still smaller than the 5v5 map, it left a lot more room to maneuver compared with the singles competition canyon. Asleep had taken the berserker thief. The berserker thief had obvious advantages, one being that it could clear the jungle zone quickly, and he made it to the lane one step faster, applying pressure on Kim Sung-hyuns wave of lane soldiers before quickly slipping into the other partys jungle zone. Taking a marksman in the doubles game led to disadvantages in the early stages because marksmen were a bit slower when it came to killing creeps (even with the game system bonus, it was still a lot less efficient when compared with a professional jungler king). Even if it was only a few seconds slower, it still created a small gap in pace. Asleep was famous as a player who could take control of the rhythm of the game. How could he pass up on such an opportunity? He snatched up farm, pressured the lane, and rushed into the top jungle zone, locking in on the bird hunter. Kim Sung-hyun used the bird hunter beautifully. It had clearly only been released for a few days, but he was already very skilled at using its skills, and the way he linked them up was commendable. Hed also maximized the strengthening of his basic attacks, but he was still low levelled and lacked two skills, which meant he couldnt make too many combos. The director focused the camera on the bird hunter often: An elegant spirit with holy feathers and sweetly trilling birds was very pleasing to the eyes of the investment daddies when it was put up on the holographic projection. His weapon were birds that had been transformed with spiritual power. There were ferocious birds of prey and delicate kingfishers they turned into spiritual blades and seemed to emanate beautiful music when he attacked. The audience tsked, The berserker thiefs darkness system and the flying birds seem to inexplicably match up. Have you seen that expansion video? The human prince who deceived the bird hunter doesnt it seem like the berserker thief? Ah that ambitious fellow who stabbed the hand that fed him? Hugging and taking away the berserker thief, my little berserker is very sweet and isnt that kind of guy with a wolfs heart and dogs lungs. But this love triangle is a little tempting The scythes locked onto the bird hunter! The berserker thief had no vision on the bird hunter, but hed judged where the bird hunter would be based on the distribution of jungle creeps. When he cast out his scythe, it was more of a tentative probe, but hed actually locked onto the bird hunter. No way, I cant stop my brain from imagining this. My simple and clean bird hunter was bound by that ambitious heart just like this. Begging for more of that forbidden play! Get lost, cults, ahhhhh, the bird hunter belongs to the soul warlock! The berserker thief is the berserker warriors! One second, just let me ship them for one very long second, hey. The emphasis on entertainment for this entertainment game was quite substantial, so the audience in the scrolling comments werent paying as much attention to who would win or lose. They were more focused on the showcase of the new talents and gossiping away. But the players in the canyon were very serious. The bird hunter had been locked in, and the berserker thief dropped down from the sky. Kim Sung-hyun lived up to his reputation as a thief killer and calmly tossed out his control skills, locking the berserker thief in place and instantly pulling away. A bird hunter that hadnt yet reached level six couldnt deal much damage, but the berserker thief could tear out the other partys throat without reaching level six. Asleep didnt say a word and used a combo with his assault, using one blade after another to chip away the bird hunters health. It wasnt possible for an early-stage marksman to win against a thief with basic attacks. Just as Kim Sung-hyun was about to fall, a soul blade slashed out twice and attacked the berserker thief. Li Heran had rushed over! A heal landed on Kim Sung-hyuns head, and the seriously injured Kim Sung-hyuns health instantly recovered! The strength of the number one marksman in Glory revealed itself here. When an ordinary ADC encountered thieves, they could only run away in a panic. Not only did Kim Sung-hyun not run away, he also raced against time to trade attacks with the other party. If it was only just trading health, then it was impossible for him to win. Even if he could beat Asleep into half health, he would have already been sent back to the resurrection fountain. platform. But he had a teammate. At the moment when Li Heran hit the berserker thief and gave him a heal, Kim Sung-hyun had already begun to deal DPS like crazy. There was no need to hide, no need to escape. Just fight and be done with it! If the thief didnt die, then how could the hunter live? Asleeps health plummeted. Once there was distance between a melee talent and their target, it became very easy for the long-range talent to kite them. In particular, Kim Sung-hyun had also saved his strengthened basic attack. This wave of counter attacking beat up the berserker thief, whod already been at half health, until his head was covered in bumps and bruises. Fortunately, Brother Sleep had a support as well. Cong Yi had arrived a little late, but hed managed to escort the soldier lane all the way to the other sides tower. It was very much worth it. It was the same attack and heal, the same talent and technique that Cong Yi used to protect Asleep. The two teams faced each other head-on, and the live broadcast room exploded. What is this! Childhood sweetheart vs childhood sweetheart? You might have a big brother, but so do I? Holy shit, I can ship two childhood sweethearts at the same time! Its really getting to me! The key point is that the big brothers are both using soul warlocks ahhhhh. Its over, its over, I now have a filter over my vision. I now feel like the soul warlock is super handsome, who knows how to play? Lets get married! There were many who were busy shipping, and there were also many people who were paying attention to the details of their operations. The technical fans brushed out even more scrolling comments, Not bad, Brother Sleeps wave of operations here is very amazing. Kim Sung-hyuns marksman is really at the textbook level. I suggest that our domestic Eurostar and Yue Wenle take notes. Its not just Asleep, Cong Yi is very stable, too. Their operation strategies are clear, and their positioning is timely and accurate. Dont underestimate that attack and heal. They were all launched from the furthest range; otherwise, he wouldnt have been able to save the seriously injured Asleep. Not bad, this years global doubles will be good! I remember Close and Quiet signed up, too? Those two Those two cant fight in the old competition system, but theyll definitely fight against heaven and earth in the new competition system. One great demon king, and one little lunatic, landing on Sky Island and starting up slaughter mode. F*ck, this is absolutely worth looking forward to! In fact, the global scrolling comments were quite normal. After all, Asleep and Cong Yi were star players in their competition zone. Everyone knew them very well, and they knew their strength, so they werent surprised seeing them play like this. Some fans had even started a betting pool, hoping that Asleep and Cong Yi would win. There really was hope for that. Firstly, there were their natural advantages. Second, Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran werent playing seriously. As soon as they took out those talents, everyone understood that they were here to entertain everyone and relax. If they were psychologically relaxed, then they might really get swept away by Asleep, who had a belly full of fire from having been sent out of the running for the globals during the domestic semi-finals. The domestic scene was filled with joy, while the foreign broadcast studios followed another style. This ID looks a bit familiar. 3U.Sleep? Isnt it that Chinese player who replied to IN.Otee previously? He has a temper. Hows his strength? It should be pretty good. His team came in third place in the global doubles last year. Ha. How good can they be if they didnt even make it into the finals? Come and take a look. Lets see if this level of play is just empty talk. Seriously, although the China competition zone is very united, other than FTW, its quite difficult for them to win against IN He killed Kim Sung-hyun! Unfortunately, the majority of the domestic fans didnt know what the situation was like abroad. Otherwise, if they knew, they would make use of XX translation to go and give them a good summary of the facts. What do you mean, it would be difficult for teams other than FTW to win against IN? Like hell its hard! Which of the top four teams in China hadnt fought life or death struggles with FTW? TPT, RR, and even 3U had also played quite a few training matches against the Team of Gods. Although these achievements hadnt been made public, the fact that they could make appointments for one training match after another meant that their level was definitely recognized. Otherwise, who would agree to practice with noobs! Fortunately, Brother Sleeps stunning performance and the momentum he displayed during the entertainment game, along with his operation and consciousness, showed the world his absolute, peak strength! When they reached the middle stage of the game, Kim Sung-hyun started to grow serious. Unfortunately, hed been suppressed too much in the early stages, and the difference in farm was a bit too big. Additionally, he wasnt completely familiar with the bird hunter and still had to fumble around. Finally, Cong Yi killed Kim Sung-hyun, and Li Herans life was taken away by Asleep. 3U won the doubles entertainment game! The game was very fun to watch. Kim Sung-hyuns bird hunter was really interesting to watch; the spirit figure was elegant and ethereal, and its depraved form was ruthless and cold. The ultimate move Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix lived up to the efforts of the balding development team with special effects that were enough to make peoples livers explode! Li Heran and Cong Yis soul warlocks were also played in very insightful ways. What was more remarkable was that they used different play styles. Li Heran was attached to a bird hunter. This official partnership was superb, and there was no need to mention that Li Heran once used to be Glorys top marksman. He was very quick at picking up the bird hunter skills, and his control over his actions was invincible after he attached himself. He and Kim Sung-hyun were like twins, complementing each other with amazing tacit understanding. Cong Yi was attached to a berserker thief. They had forcibly played out a new routine and developed this unexpected double berserker thief method in such a short time. 3U was badass! At the end of the doubles game, Li Chun let out a huge breath of relief. Did we win? Wei Xiao: Yeah! He turned his head and stared at Brother Cai. Bai Cai: Dont f*cking expect so much, Laozis nervous enough to explode! Wei Xiao spoke darkly, Theres still a 5v5 game. Bai Cai: If Im unlucky Wei Xiao: Ill perform ripping apart white cabbage by hand on the spot. White Cabbage: Can you f*cking act human! The 5v5 opening game was the grand finale. Even without mentioning how the game went, just having Y1 and L&P come up on stage was enough to garner cheers from the entire audience. After all, they were the champion and runner-up teams from last year, and they had amazing popularity. Yan Jiang was the last one to come out for Y1. He had his usual cold expression on his face and didnt look at the camera, looking aloof. Yuan Ze was the first to appear from L&P. He contrasted sharply with Yan Jiang, performing perfectly for the camera. He winked, using a wink to make all the girls in the scrolling comments feel like their hearts were about to explode. Why was a scum man a scum man? Because he was handsome! With his charming looks, even if that pair of peach blossom eyes hadnt really deceived any little girls, they had still tricked away the hearts of countless girls sitting in front of the screen! Both sides went to their seats and started messing around from the BP link. They were old rivals. How could they not understand the other party? Relatively speaking, L&P was a bit more serious. This was especially true for Old G, whod appeared twice. His murderous intent was surging up to the skies. Hed lost in the singles, and he didnt want to lose again in the team game. Old G really wanted to win! Wei Xiao yawned, not very interested in watching the game. After interacting together for a long time, hed basically gotten an understanding of Y1. Or rather, he understood Yan Jiang. One of Captain Yans distinguishing features was laziness. He wasnt like Asleep, who slept whenever he wasnt in the canyon. He was really lazy, the arrogant type of laziness. For games that werent worth playing, he really wished that he could stick the words not interested right on the keyboard. Not everyone could make God Yan go all out. This point could be infuriating. At the very least, Yuan Ze was so angry that his liver was hurting. But there just wasnt any way to deal with it; no flaws could be found to prove that he was taking it easy, but on the other hand, how could he lose if he was being serious?! If you really questioned him? That one look was something you had to experience for yourself. Yuan Ze: He was going to blow up from anger at this blatantly biased fellow! All of those who understood God Yan could see it. CCForced to do business. CCWho has to go play in the opening game? CCOh, I accidentally won the global championship. CCFine, Ill play. Play it however. Um The fans had translated his thoughts quite accurately. This man definitely thought that way! 5v5 ended. Y1 was one step behind and lost to L&P. They really were one step behind. Old G was like a mad dog who ran around everywhere in the canyon. Y1 lost the battle in the last group fight and lost the game. Old G won, but he didnt feel proud at all. He even felt more aggrieved than before, Captain Yuan Ze turned his head to look at this big fool on his team and became even more gloomy. It was the same call of captain, but when he listened to Little Lunatic Weis crisp young voice, then listened to Old Gs rough voice It wasnt obvious without comparison, but he kind of wanted to turn gay once he compared them. Finally, it came to the casual player competition. This was also the highlight that the audience was looking forward to the most! Just look at this name list! The Team of Gods plus Old G, famous celebrities who were top players from all over the world! Who would team up with whom? Who would be opponents? What was certain was that Yuan Ze and Gary would definitely be separated. This was standard practice; if players from the same team played together in this kind of performance competition, they would definitely end up hurting each other. So what about the rest? Would Close and Yan Jiang be in the same team? Or would he be in the same team as Yuan Ze? Would fanboy Gary continue battling with his idol, or would he have to tearfully give up his jungler position? There were too many possibilities; it was too exciting, they couldnt wait to watch! As the host provided suspenseful commentary, the audiences emotions were stirred up to the limit. Even the audience in the live broadcast rooms were very excited! There were people betting, talking big, sending out gifts, crying loudly There was so much traffic in the animated live broadcast room that it was about to explode. It wasnt until the lucky draw started that the fans in the live broadcast room started getting envious, wanting to send out blades at the lucky ones. The host was very good at whetting their appetites, drawing the players one by one. The numbers rotated on the screen non-stop, and nobody dared to blink as they watched. The first to go up on stage was a 20 year old girl. Her face was thoroughly red, and she was too excited to speak. The second one was a little fatty who wore the FTW team uniform (fan merchandise), who was trembling with excitement as he introduced himself. The third one was another girl. She was a bit braver, and smiled at the camera. But her cheeks still turned crimson when she glimpsed the professional players out of the corner of her eyesCCoh my god, the great demon king was one head taller than her! That was the best height difference, okay! Off-stage. Wei Xiaos face was expressionless. Brother Cai trembled in fear. As I was saying Wei Xiaos tone was dark, Send Money a text message now and give him back the Porsche! Brother Cai: Wei Xiao: Based on the law of conservation of character, your luck needs to be traded in with a Porsche. Bai Cai didnt even have the energy to curse at him! Seeing that three positions were already picked and there was only one spot left, Wei Xiao also grew disappointed. It made sense, since it couldnt be so coincidental How could he be chosen in an arena filled with tens of thousands of people? There was no hope for it. He could only watch the captain from beneath the stage. Wei Xiao sighed. Forget it Wasnt it just a friendly casual player competition? He could earn himself a place next year! He would definitely be among the top six most popular players in the world! Wei Xiao had already given up hope when Brother Cai exclaimed, Holy shit! Wei Xiao looked up. The numbers scrolling on the screen looked familiar. Wei Xiao: ! Brother Cai checked his seat number again and again. Wei Xiao was shocked, Really? Brother Cai gave up, Really. F*ck, dont call me Brother Cai in the future. Laozi was the real European Emperor of Luck! He even managed to win this kind of draw! Chapter 226: Where will Little Lunatic Weis craziness land? Seeing that the last lucky player number had been drawn, the audience members who hadnt been chosen were all left disappointed. At the same time, they were filled with envy and sent out a wave of jealous dissatisfaction. The host looked at the seat number and was stunned for a moment. It seems to be an audience member from the special guest seating. There was a pattern to the seating numbers, and the special guest seating also had its own unique identifier, so the host could tell with a glance. The audience was stunned as soon as he said this. The first thought in their hearts was that there had to be something going on internally or some sort of fraud. Was it worth doing such a thing for the casual player competition The viewers in the live broadcast room were quicker to figure it out, Holy shit, I remember that the special guest seating is for professional players! Also, only the players who are participating in the opening game can sit there! Through the process of elimination, those in the 5v5 game definitely arent there. So that leaves Pro, 3U, and FTW? Oh, and theres also EVE! Whos so lucky? There were quotation marks around the word lucky. To the audience, with the casual player competition, casual players would be very happy about being able to go up on stage and see their idols. For professional players to go up though they were faced with players who were either first in the world, or first in the world. It was a real arena of slaughter, and they would just be disgraced when they went up. Ill feel distress for them ahead of time, but I hope its not my Little Brother Chun. God Yi is still backstage, right? Who else came from 3U? Wait a minute! There are two players from FTW! Brother Cai and Quiet. Let me take back what I said earlier. If its the little lunatic, then I dont feel bad at all! If its really Quiet, then I dont even know who I should feel bad for this time! If it had been Li Chun or Bai Cai, theyd probably have burst out into tears on the spot if theyd gotten selected. But if it was Wei Xiao The audience suspected that he wanted to go up and fight even in his dreams! The fans did know their big darling very well. When Wei Xiao stood up and the camera panned over, there was a large stretch of ellipsis in the live broadcast studio, and then It really is Little Lunatic Wei! F*ck, things are even more interesting now! Ahhhh, Q Cub, hold back a little for Mama and dont smile so happily! This brat is so excited that he really cant hide it. Love it, love it. This personality of his where hes not afraid of the heavens or earth or life or death and is only afraid of things not being lively enough is too deadly! The host was stunned briefly as well, and when she saw Wei Xiao take two steps towards the stage, she even suspected that there was some sort of script being acted out. Was this okay? The director wasnt trying to stir up trouble, right? Of course, her expression had to remain stable no matter what she thought inside. The host smiled broadly as she greeted Wei Xiao. Wei Xiao wasnt an ordinary casual player, so he was at ease in front of the camera. His eyes were curved with his smile, and his entire person radiated joy. The domestic fans all understood him, and scrolling comments began to fill up the screen: Calm down a bit, little lunatic! Dont scare the global online audience! Keep a low profile, stay low-key. Hide your strength and wait for the real competition! The global audience was really quite curious. Quiet? FTWs new jungler? What a coincidence. I heard that his skills arent bad? He must have some ability in order to replace Close. His skills are unknown, but he looks really cute. His black hair and eyes made his skin look clean and pure. The natural aegyo sal beneath his eyes made them seem even more beautiful, and his small tiger teeth were exposed at the corners of his smiling mouth. The lethality of this sunny youth could cross borders, race, age, and even gender. After the interview, Wei Xiaos gaze moved to Lu Feng. Lu Fengs thin lips curved up. Wei Xiao blinked. There was no need to mention what happened next. In any case, the live broadcast room was like a groundhogs nest that had just been pierced through. There was no way to see any of the live broadcast content without blocking out the AHHHHHH scrolling comments that were so dense that theyd started clumping together. The host and audience werent the only ones surprised. The players on the stage hadnt expected this, either. Yuan Ze raised his eyebrows. If it werent for the fact that they were on stage, he would have opened his mouth to tease Wei Xiao. Another surprised person was Yan Jiang. Originally, God Yans body had been surrounded by an aura of boredom. Now, the black eyes that were usually dull and indifferent were showing obvious interest. Wei Xiao was arranged to stand next to Kim Sung-hyun. Kim Sung-hyun turned his head, and the man who was a cold, proud flower for the camera had his eyes narrowed slightly. Did Lulu do this for you? FTW had enough sway to make something like this happen by going through the back door. Wei Xiao: Our FTW has luck that soars through the heavens. We dont need to cheat. With Caicais little red hands, such things were pretty easy. Kim Sung-hyun: Like hell Id believe you! Looking at the line-up on the stage was enough to excite people even before they started! The Team of Gods had gathered together as a group of former teammates. There were enough feelings of gratitude as well as feuds between them to write a story a million words long! And there were current teammates who could cooperate with tacit understandingCC Using the present to fight the past or taking up the mantle of the past to beat up the present. No matter which script it was, the audience loved them all! The directors were also very surprised. There had been no shady dealings, but for such a thing to happen fantastic! Traffic soared, the investor daddies were laughing out loud, and the possibility of salary increases seemed closer than before! platform. Such a good opportunity couldnt be missed. How could they make the effect of the upcoming battle more interesting? How could they leave the audience wanting more? And how could they stir up the flames of war? This would all start with the formation of groups! At this point, the directors really wanted to pull some strings from behind the scene. Why make it a draw? Wouldnt it be fun to split everyone up and stir up chaos? Unfortunately, the rules were released a long time ago. If they broke them now and the fans decided to make an issue of it, then theyd be putting the cart before the horse. Everyone could only pray that the team split would be lively, interesting, and more like an arena of slaughter Although it was a draw, there were also some hard rules. For example, there were six predetermined professional players, with three on each team, and two lucky draw players on either team. Professional players from the same team wouldnt be grouped up together. This referred to the professional players and didnt include Wei Xiao, who was a lucky draw player. When Wei Xiao saw that it was another lottery, he regretted that he hadnt brought Brother Cai along with him. With Caicai there, all his wishes would come true! Yuan Ze and Gary didnt have a choice. One went to Group A, and the other went to Group B. Their spots were fixed. After the two of them stood apart, the rest of the professional players started drawing lots. Lu Feng went first and drew Group A. Wei Xiao now understood the rules and began to chant in his heart, Brother Cai, bless me. Let me draw Group A. He didnt bother with anything else and first repeated this chant 18 times. The next up was Yuan Ze. Wei Xiao paid attention to his draw, and the audience also stared at it carefully. The online audience also sent out scrolling comments like crazy, Group A! Group A! If Yuan Ze, Lu Feng, and Yan Jiang are in the same team, then I can die in peace! Group A, Group A, let Close and God Yan be on the same team. I want to see the Team of Gods immortal jungler-support combo! This female believer is willing to use 20KG of fat in exchange for God Yan getting into Group A, ahhhh! The results came out. Captain YanCCGroup B. The scrolling comments: . This group of old CP fans and current cult fans were all abused to death. Next up was Xie He and Kim Sung-hyun. These two were quick and direct, one going into Group A, and the other going to Group B. The professional players were settled. Group A had Yuan Ze, Lu Feng, Xie He; Group B had Gary, Yan Jiang, Kim Sung-hyun. Some people were happy about this line-up, while others were nervous. The happy thing was that Yuan Ze, Lu Feng, and Xie He were on the same team. It was like a f*cking dream come true. The upsetting thing was that Lu Feng wasnt in the same team as Yan Jiang and Kim Sung-hyun. It was enough for people to wake up from their dreams in tears. Finally, it was the lucky players turn to draw for their group. Although Wei Xiao was the last one to come up onto the stage, he was the first one to go up and draw. It wasnt that hed taken the initiative to go up and draw, but that the other three players had taken the initiative to step back, hoping that he would be the first to go. Wei Xiao didnt try to act polite with them and boldly walked over while nervously blessing Caicai numerous times in his heart. Everyones gazes fell on him. They were all waiting to see which group Little Lunatic Q would fall into. In fact, many people were waiting. There was no doubt that Yuan Ze wanted Wei Xiao to join Group A. Needless to say, Yan Jiang wanted Wei Xiao to go to Group B. Coincidentally, the other two players from the Team of Gods had opposing ideas. Xie He, who was in Group A, wanted Wei Xiao to go to Group B, because he wanted him as an opponent more than he wanted him as a teammate. Kim Sung-hyun, who was in Group B, wanted Wei Xiao to go to Group A. It wasnt that Proud Flower Kim wanted to battle with the jungler kings, but more because becauseCCeveryone would understand once the game began! Looking at the wish value, things were quite even. So, which group would Wei Xiao draw? He glanced at the card as soon as he pulled it out, and then The host announced the results, Congratulations, Quiet. You drew Group B. Group B! Wei Xiao took the shadow thief. Youre tough. Gary locked in the death knight. At this moment, at this time, who wouldve dared to think that Gary wasnt going up against his captain, and Wei Xiao wasnt going up against his own captain? The author has something to say: Fight, fight! Hahahahahaha Chapter 227: He couldnt figure out how these accounts were calculated! Kim Sung-hyun withered the moment he saw Wei Xiao take the shadow thief. He didnt need to think about it anymore; he wouldnt be able to see his own teams support for the entire game. Proud Flower Kim thought back to three years ago and the fear hed felt when hed been under Captain Yans control. They were both supports, both captains, and both his seniors, but the gap between Yan Jiang and Li Heran was as high as Mt. Han! Getting accustomed to Li Herans gentle care, then falling into Yan Jiangs hands again was enough to make Kim Sung-hyun forget how to play. He tentatively locked in the storm hunter, very conscious that he would be looking after himself. The remaining lucky player in Group B, Little Fatty, spoke up cautiously, What should I use? Wei Xiao: What are you good at? Little Fatty: Wei Xiao: Hm? How would Little Fatty dare to say that the talent he was best with was the shadow thief! Even if he had a provincial level shadow thief, even if he was honored as a jungler king amongst normal players, even if his shadow thief was enough for him to carry girls and win, would he dare to say such things here?! Saying that he was good at the shadow thief in front of FTWs inheritor of the shadow thief? If he said this, Little Fatty would end up nailed to the pillar of shame as soon as Glorys Mic Explosion King released the voice chats! His brain shifted gears 18 times, and he said politely, Fire mage. It was an entry level hero in Glory. It was easy to get started with and was loved by the girls. Wei Xiao: Cute. He was thinking of the jumping and bouncing Lulu fire mage, but how could Little Fatty know that? He was flattered, so much so that he couldnt even hold the keyboard! The corner of Kim Sung-hyuns mouth twitched. Be a little more self-aware, hey, youre someones boyfriend! Yan Jiang took the soul warlock. Needless to say, this move of his instantly attracted Wei Xiaos attention. Is Captain Yan serious! Yan Jiang: Wei Xiao: Are you following me? Do you know how to play the shadow thief? Gary interjected, The death knight combo is simpler. Captain Yan, follow me! This lame Chinese with a Northerner accent could really come from no one else. Yan Jiang: Just playing around. Wei Xiao: Thats alright, using the soul warlock is great. If you really cant, then just attach to the fire mage and play a mid-laner. Yan Jiang: Mm. Kim Sung-hyun: To hell with your mm. The little children might not know, but how could he not know?! Was there any talent that Yan Jiang couldnt play?! Or, in other words, was there any talent in Glory that Yan Jiang hadnt studied extensively? Although the soul warlock was a new talent, the essence of this talent was to make use of other talents skills. For Yan Jiang, this didnt require any adapting at all. He could use them all directly. During their days in the Team of Gods, Yan Jiang had never signed up for the single and doubles competitions, but it wasnt because he couldnt play. It had been because he was too lazy to play! Kim Sung-hyun inexplicably felt a little lucky. This was good; luckily, he wasnt in Group A. Otherwise, he would have been killed off by this support-jungler pair. It was also good that Lu Feng was playing jungler in Group A. At least Little Lunatic Wei would hold back a bit. After that, he entered the game matching screen and saw the other sides line-up as well as the common skills they were carrying (the casual player competition used the blind talent selection mode). Wei Xiao: ??? Old G: ??? Kim Sung-hyun: The other side also had a death knight and a shadow thief, but the one with the jungler skill was the death knight, while the shadow thief had taken the hunting skill. Yuan Ze was the death knight, and Lu Feng was the shadow thief. Old G was stunned. Whats this situation? My captain is playing jungler? Wei Xiao exploded, Old G, did you do this on purpose?! Gary: ??? What did I do on purpose? Wei Xiao: You deliberately tricked me into playing jungler! You purposely lured the tiger away from the mountain! You took advantage of the opportunity and stole into other peoples homes! Based on Old Gs Chinese level, it was a little difficult for Old G to understand these words. Wei Xiao then questioned him again in English, You must have discussed it with your captain beforehand. Tricking my captain to go to the top lane, while you also play top-laner, so that you two can solo without a care for anyone else! Gary instantly cried out at this injustice, I didnt, Im not, dont talk nonsense! Wei Xiao: Then why is Marshal playing jungler? He deliberately used Yuan Zes ID. Firstly, there was a lucky player present, and he might scare him if he called Yuan Ze Old Bandit Yuan. Another reason was just for emphasis. Marshal had once said, Laozi only loves playing top-lane in this life and will only play top-lane. Id rather retire than play any other position. He hadnt retired yet, but Marshal had changed his mind! If Wei Xiao hadnt been convinced about Yuan Zes bad habit, then he wouldnt have given up his top-lane position to Gary. As everyone knew, the top-laner position was the solo position in a 5v5 game. If it wasnt a special situation, then generally, it would end up with two people hanging out in the top lane. Wei Xiao kept sighing over how he couldnt be together with his captain. This time, they were really staggered apart; it made him even more angry! Poor Old G. He had probably never considered that his captain would break his own oath like this. Group A had originally been very strong. They had three solo kings and could suppress the other side by playing casually. Now Forget it. Captain Lu and God Xie might not be able to carry the team! Wei Xiao scolded Old G to his face, and Old G couldnt do anything about itCCwhen it came to this, he was the one who was getting the better end of the deal. Although he wasnt facing off with Yuan Ze in his lane, being able to play against Close was an even happier situation. Hed lost in the singles, and it was time to get even in the 5v5 game. Old G coaxed Wei Xiao, Its all right, you can come provide support for the top lane more often. Wei Xiao grew even angrier. Im supposed to go to the top lane and help you beat up my captain? Gary: Cough Wei Xiao: Dont worry, Ill definitely kill your captain. Gary: He couldnt figure out how these accounts were calculated! After entering the game, Wei Xiaos murderous aura was surging, and the speed at which he cleared the jungle was really shocking. The director gave a shot of the whole game, providing a panoramic view of the entire canyon. In Group B, Wei Xiao and Yan Jiang had their own tacit understanding. They flew through the jungle creeps, and finished clearing half the jungle zone within moments, then turned to go to the bottom jungle zone. Group A was a different style altogether. Yuan Ze huffed and puffed as he killed off his red buff, and after killing it off with much difficulty, he took a detour before going to kill the stone man. This navigation alone made people unable to bear looking at it directly! Seriously speaking, there wasnt much that a professional player couldnt play. Although they had strong tendencies, for example, ADCs generally wouldnt play mid-laner mages, and mid-lane mages generally wouldnt try to play ADC. It wasnt that they couldnt play those talents, but that the way they thought about the game was different. One required them to support the lanes on both sides, while the other needed to do whatever they could to survive and develop. There was a big difference in game consciousness, which wasnt a big deal in a casual game, but this kind of thing grew into a big gap when it came to professional competitions. For example, Teacher Yuan; the death knight was a hero he was good at. He knew all of its skills like the back of his hand, and could avoid skills and maximize DPS when jungling, but his mentality for this position was wrong. In the professional arena, games were calculated by the second. For him to make this detour meant that Little Lunatic Wei was already one jungle creep ahead of him. It was also fortunate that the shadow thief didnt dare to fight against the death knight in the early stages, because otherwise, Wei Xiao wouldve come around to find him and mess with him a long time ago. Of course, it still wasnt too late now By the time Group B finished clearing all their jungle zones, Yuan Ze had only just started working on his bottom jungle. Group B team chat. Mid-laner Little Fatty wailed, I I cant hold on Hed tried his best, but that was God Xie across from him! No matter how hard he tried, he wouldnt be able to resist against Xie He! Xie He was using a new mid-laner talent that had just been released. This new mage, which he hadnt used more than a few times, was abusing the fire mage until it had been left in a sorry state. Wei Xiao: Coming. Hed gank Xie He first. In any case, Yuan Ze wouldnt be able to provide support. First Blood broke out before he could arrive! Had God Xie killed mid-laner Little Fatty? Had God Kim killed the group of two in the bottom lane in a two against one fight? None of the above. Close had solo killed Gary! When the system announcement sounded out, the applause from the live audience rang out like thunder, and the live broadcast screens were covered in a stretch of ahhhhhhs. First Blood had gone to Close. Glorys great demon king lived up to his name! Gary, whod given out First Blood in the singles competition, gave out First Blood once again. Gary felt very aggrieved. Wei Xiao: Routine operations. Gary: Hed forgotten that his teammate wasnt really his teammate! For this, it really wasnt that Wei Xiao hadnt saved him, but that Old G himself had lost his head. He was using the death knight, and Lu Feng was using the shadow thief. As everyone knew, the death knight was a daddy who could suppress the shadow thief in a fight in the early stages. Gary was eager to prove himself, and he wanted to kill the great demon king to indulge himself first before worrying about anything else. If he didnt play more fiercely at the start, then he wouldnt be able to play at all when the shadow thief picked up his light arcs later on. There was nothing wrong with Garys train of thought. Besides, Yuan Ze was being deadly slow at clearing the jungle and wouldnt be able to provide support. As long as he seized the right opportunity, he would be able to kill Lu Feng. And then the great demon king seized the right opportunity to catch him instead, and he was sent to the fountain in tears. Wei Xiaos thought process was, No way, I have to go kill Yuan Ze, too. Old G: ??? Wei Xiao: If the captain can kill you when youre playing death knight, then I can also kill the other sides death knight. They were both shadow thieves, both death knights. Lu Feng killed Gary. Wei Xiao also wanted to kill Yuan Ze! Gary wanted to go into seclusion. You guys you guys Are inhuman! Close took First Blood, and it wasnt just Wei Xiao who let it get to his head. Xie He was only a few seconds behind him. He went under the tower and killed Group Bs Little Fatty. The Little Fatty fell to the ground, but he was very pleased, his mouth stretched in a happy smileCChed persisted for so long and hadnt sent out First Blood. It was enough for him to boast about for a year! The director also had a sense of humor and really showed him on the camera. The audience in the live broadcast room helped him provide commentary, Thank you to the competition committee, the organizers, the great demon king, God G, and thank the heavens and earth for the mid-lane soldiers that allowed me to survive until now After Xie He killed Little Fatty, Kim Sung-hyun stopped taking it easy on the girls. He killed the two of them on his own and took a double kill. Not only were the two girls not sad at being killed by the proud flower, they were even especially excited and praised Kim Sung-hyun in their team chat. Finally, the cameras all shifted to show the two junglers. Wei Xiao had given up on providing Little Fatty with support. If he was unable to catch and kill Yuan Ze in the jungle zone, then things wouldnt be right in the world. Not to mention, he wasnt alone. He had an immortal support beside him. There was no suspense. The shadow thief used Shadow Attack to charge in and met the death knight! Yuan Ze sucked in a breath of air. In this life, hed always been the existence that made other peoples backs feel cold. Now, he had a profound experience of being on the other side. Helpless, powerless, and feeling a little f*cking bit of subtle grievance. The holographic projection focused on this wave of close combat. At the moment when the soul warlock hit Yuan Ze, the shadow thief had already started up his combo. Wei Xiao had cleared out the jungle quickly, and he was a bit higher than Yuan Ze in both experience and level. Yan Jiangs precise control was so accurate that he didnt need to think about anything and just had to deal out explosive DPS! Yuan Ze lost half his health in the blink of an eye. The old bandit was still good at surviving. He was using his light form, which was comparatively more flexible. He barely managed to block Wei Xiaos basic attack and quickly retreated. If he wasnt up against Yan Jiang, then he would really have had a hope of running away. Unfortunately, a soul blade was there to block his retreat. The shadow thief shifted position to appear right in front of his face, giving up the opportunity for a back stab. Although there was no critical hit, Wei Xiao had control over the damage he dealt, and it was nothing for him to take away the death knights life. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed L&P.Marshal. Killing quickly, simply, and indiscriminately! Yuan Ze: His liver hurt from anger at the two dogs on the other side! The commentators gave a round of praise for the cooperation between Wei Xiao and Yan Jiang just now. In fact, there was no need to say it. Everyone could see clearly that this tacit understanding was godly. Those who knew the situation, knew that it was two strangers from different teams. Those who didnt know would think that this was an immortal jungler support pairing! The fans in the live broadcast studio quickly told the story of what had happened during the new singles performance competition a while back. Wei Xiaos instances of using then discarding Captain Yan were too numerous to be counted! Speaking of which Captain Yan is using a soul warlock! The soul warlock with the shadow thief! When they get to level six, will he use his attachment on Wei Xiao? Could it be that well be able to see three shadow thieves in this game? Holy shit, Ive seen nine light arcs and eight light arcs, but have you guys seen three shadow thieves brush out light arcs together? Wake up! As a support, itll be a miracle for Yan Jiang to be able to use the shadow thief at all, let alone light arcs. Um platform. Can Yan Jiang use the shadow thief? FTWs old fans shouted out loudly, Yes! The rest of the audience was more conservative, Can he brush out six light arcs? The old fans were bold and direct, We dont know! To hell with that! They shouldnt overthink it. Although the soul warlock could use the skills of the target they were attached to, it would be weakened by half. If he wanted to brush out seven arcs, then he would have to have the ability to brush out eight arcs. In order to brush out eight light arcs, then it would have to be Close using the soul warlock! Chapter 228: Close! Come here and manage your own little lunatic! It didnt matter that Yuan Ze had died once, but what was unfortunate was that he had lost control over all of his jungle zones. Wei Xiao accurately locked in on the jungle creep refresh times and farmed resources like crazy, completely treating Group As jungle zone like his own backyard. He came and went whenever he wanted, and there was nothing Yuan Ze could do about it. Fight? He couldnt win! Not fight, and let the little lunatic prance around arrogantly? As a big brother, didnt he need his dignity?! Yuan Ze: Old Xie Xie He: Busy. Like hell youre busy. Based on your mid-lane ability and just having to face off with only that fire mage who wished they could give you ten thousand kills C what are you busy with? Are you busy waiting for the other side to send their head over for you to kill?! Teacher Yuan was someone with self respect and wouldnt ask a second time. He turned his head to ask Lu Feng, How about I come and help you clear your lane soldiers? He was unable to guard his own jungle zone. He wanted money, but couldnt get any; he wanted experience, but he couldnt get any either. His title as worlds number one death knight was hollow and useless! Lu Feng didnt speak. He started up his light arcs and cleared out his lane soldiers completely. Yuan Ze: Did you f*cking have to go so far! The audience couldnt hear the team chat. The only thing they could see was the light arcs suddenly bursting out on the top lane. Whats going on! Is Old G dead again? Nooo, Gary didnt show up. Then who did the great demon king brush out his light arcs for??? The little soldiers Using the light arcs to clear out his lane? Your daddy really is your daddy. But why use light arcs to clear out the soldiers? Some members of the audience had sharp eyes, To tell you the truth, I think Yuan Ze might have wanted to leech off the top lane soldiers. For more, Yes, there was no need to be polite. Gary had to die. In just five short minutes, Group As rhythm underwent earth shaking changes. There was no need for commentary. The audiences eyes were bright, and they instantly saw to the core of the changes. Close is badass! He can turn the tide even with this! Hes worthy of being my husband. Its obvious that hes got it as soon as he makes a move! The great demon king understands the little lunatic well. He saw through him completely. Are you treating FTWs top-jungler linkage as though its fake? Their hearts are connected! Speaking of which, whats going on with L&Ps top-jungler linkage. Dont ask, if you ask, then theyve lost their mind! They were both top and jungler battles, but why were the two from FTW each better than the other? They played perfectly even when they were opponents, yet L&P had collapsed just like this? Werent they the number one top-jungler linkage in the world? Werent they the agreed-on championship team (19th season)! What was going on with Gary and Yuan Ze! They really couldnt be blamed for this. FTWs top-laner was still in the top lane, and their jungler was still jungling, while L&Ps jungler had become their top-laner, and their top-laner had become a noob. It was only due to their ability as professional players that they were able to hold on until now, okay! Lu Feng snatched back the rhythm for Group A. Although he hadnt taken the jungler open skill, and although he wasnt playing jungler, he did everything that should be done. So, did Yuan Ze end up going back to the top lane to abuse Gary? Dream on. The jungle zone belonged to the shadow thief, and the top lane also belonged to the shadow thief. The death knight? Yuan Ze gave up on himself and bought support equipment with which to shield Close. Although Wei Xiao never ran into Lu Feng, he was too familiar with this feeling. Each move of his was seen through. There was someone who understood where he wanted to go better than him, someone who completely understood his rhythm, his thoughts, and his actions. Who was this person? His captain! It was clear that the situation had changed for him, but Wei Xiaos tail was flipped up high. Close was awesome. Even he wanted to help the fans shout out loud! After two or three waves of guerrilla operations, Yuan Ze looked at the farm. Gank? Lu Feng: This way. The two of them circled around the bushes behind the stone man and waited. Yuan Ze: The captain wont check the bushes. Lu Feng: Mm. Yuan Ze: Maybe he already set up vision. Lu Feng: There isnt any. Yuan Ze: Will the little lunatic really come over here Dont blame Teacher Yuan for nitpicking like this. It was really that this moment was too important. If they could press Wei Xiao to death in this wave, Group A may be able to turn the tables. If they couldnt, then based on Xie Hes listless state, Group A was done for. The audience, who had gods perspective, grew even more enthusiastic. Ive been waiting for this scene for three years! The scene of Marshals death knight and Closes shadow thief crouching together is so good that I want to cry! Remember the last game from three years ago? I remember, I remember, the shadow thief attacked and took away the sides c-position. The death knight broke in with a heavy blade and ended the game with a three against one fight! Right, right, right, that game was the only time when my God Kim was beloved by his captain. Unfortunately, the top jungler pair was inhuman and broke down the other side even before he could develop enough to join the group fights. Was that in London? I heard that the entire venue exploded, and the audience scolded the Asian team to death. I wouldve scolded if it was me, too. Spending so much in order to watch the game just to have it turn out to be even less interesting than a casual game. Acing the other party in a two against five and playing a 5v5 like a doubles game. The Team of Gods was really badass back then! For the fragmented Team of Gods, every second was an unforgettable memory. They watched as Wei Xiao came over. The soul warlock, who was attached to him, was only a faint shadow. The shadow thief himself was a character that hid in the dark, and the faint glow from the shadow thief was like a mist that hid him in the night. Yan Jiang: Theres someone up ahead. Wei Xiaos footsteps paused, Is it my captain? Yan Jiang: And Yuan Ze. Wei Xiaos mouth curved up slightly, Okay. Knowing that there were tigers on the mountain but insisting on going there anyway, that referred precisely to Wei Little Xiao! The commentators: Quiet rushed in. Has he fallen for Close and Marshals ambush? Didnt Captain Yan give him vision? He didnt even toss out a skill and went straight into the bushes? No, wait, Quiet used the shadow attack and stacked up a layer of marks. Captain Yan kept up with him and used the same skill in the same direction. His actions arent any worse than his. The commentators were excited, and the fans in the live broadcast studio were even more excited. Holy shit, holy shit, are they so certain that theres someone there? They charged right in with their skills? I now know why they call Quiet a lunatic. He even f*cking dares to do this! The start for this is wrong. He started spreading marks directly, stacking them up for his light arcs? This greeting is really tough! Quickly look at Close Oh my god, this hand speed is extreme. Jealous, jealous. I really envy the live audience. How explosive would it be to watch this in person? Wei Xiao charged into the bushes and wasnt surprised to see Yuan Ze and Lu Feng there. None of the four people who came face to face with each other panicked. The two hiding in the bushes had expected them to charge in, and the two rushing into the bushes knew who was inside. They didnt hesitate at all. Wei Xiao even took the lead and took this micro advantage to unhesitatingly start building up momentum. However, Close wasnt frightened by his appearance and started his attack at almost the same time. Yuan Ze also switched forms instantly, aiming hard at Wei Xiao. Yan Jiang used a fine control skill to interrupt his attack, and Yuan Ze continued attacking, taking down over half of the soul warlocks spirit bar. The soul warlock had a spirit bar when they were attached. It would be reduced after getting attacked, and once it was empty, the attachment would cancel out, and the soul warlock would take serious damage. Wei Xiao wasnt distracted, completely putting his trust in Yan Jiang. Yan Jiang switched skills and used the soul hunters skills to protect Wei Xiao. Almost at the same time, nine light arcs fell from the sky. Yuan Ze: F*ck. He retreated in a hurry but was still affected by the light arcs. Yan Jiangs spirit attachment was broken. He was seriously injured and slipped behind Wei Xiao. Light filled the whole sky. The holographic projection lit up almost the entire venue. Everyone in the audience who saw this scene held their breath. It was just too gorgeous, too amazing. The two sets of nine light arcs that were brushed out at the same time shocked everyone! Closes nine light arcs. Quiets nine light arcs. FTWs inherited shadow thief was really f*cking amazing! They rose up and fell at the same time. This shocking damage killed all the jungle creeps nearby. Yuan Ze and Yan Jiang drew back from the attack zone, but they still fell to the ground, seriously injured. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Close killed FTW.Quiet. FTW.Quiet killed FTW.Close. Chapter 229: It turned out that the soul warlock could even be used like this! How much others knew or didnt know wasnt important. In any case, Brother Cai had been smacked in the face with this display and almost couldnt sit still! Li Chun: Double nine light arcs, so cool! Bai Cai: Li Chun: Close and Quiet are too strong! Brother Cai, whod been choked to the point he wanted to roll his eyes, calmed himself down. They are quite strong. Li Chun: Its so romantic These words almost scared Brother Cai into hiding under the chair. Ro-roman what Tch, tch! Li Chun said longingly, The shadow thief is really the epitome of a mans romance! Brother Cai: Im about to be scared to death by your exaggerated speech! The shadow thief was indeed a mans romance, and the light arcs had romantic appeal to all Glory players. At this moment, the two people in the arena were showing them double the romance. Too cool. Super explosive. Both the live audience and the fans in the live broadcast studio were excited. In a 2v2, all four players toppled. The two shadow thieves both took a double kill. No one won or lost, but they showed the world an unprecedentedly wonderful scene. Not to mention the audience, even their teammates shifted their minimaps one after another and stared at the scene for a long time. The two girls in Group A didnt pay attention to God Kims existence at all and didnt even bother with clearing their lanes. They inhaled sharply, and if it werent for the fact that their teleportation skills were on cooldown, they would have flown over to take a group photo! In fact, they wanted to run over now. It would be great to just look at the bodies. And then Kim Sung-hyun stepped on raindrops and sent off the girls, helping them save on travel expenses. In the mid-lane, Little Fatty couldnt escape God Xies direct punch to the head, either. He shouted as he died and went back to the fountain, So amazing, so amazing, too amazing. It was fortunate that he hadnt said he was good at the shadow thief. With this level of extreme operations in play, he didnt even deserve to mention the two words shadow thief. In the 5v5 canyon, only Xie He and Kim Sung-hyun were left alive. One of them took down the other sides mid-lane first tower, and the other took down their opponents bottom lane outer tower. At first glance, it seemed that Group B, whod lost their mid-lane tower, suffered more losses. However, looking at the farm situation, where Kim Sung-hyun had quietly accumulated a lot of farm, it became clear that Group A was in a dangerous situation. In the late stages, when Daddy Kim really stood up, then Lu Feng and Yuan Ze would have to take him down in a 2v1 trade. Otherwise, who else would be able to stop him? Once Lu Feng and Yuan Ze died to take him down, then Group A would be done for. No matter how amazing God Xie was, it would still be difficult for him to provide support on his own. Wei Xiao, Gary, and Yan Jiang. These three could ensure that he died in a way that made things very clear. Of course, the game wasnt over yet, and it was too early to jump to any conclusions. After this wave of 2v2, Lu Feng completely took over as the jungler while simultaneously eating up his top-lane farm. There was nothing Yuan Ze could do but to follow along to try and get a bit of farm for himself. The high and lofty number one top-laner in the Temple of Glory had fallen to this point. It was really Greatly enjoyed by the audience! Yeah. There werent many who shed tears for him. Instead, many waved flags and shouted cheers. Scum Man Yuans fans were all outstanding in this sense! Just as Kim Sung-hyun had thought when the groups were formed, he was doomed to be an orphan left to his own devices with Wei Xiao in the group. He was a good and proper big treasure, a rare immortal ADC in the world, but hed fallen into a pitiful situation where no one cared about him. The two girls across from him had jungler kings filling their hearts. They didnt care how many lane soldiers they lost, how many times they died, or even how theyd almost lost all their towers. His own mid-laner had been bitten to death by Xie He, and Xie He was too lazy to bother moving to the bottom lane to mess with him. How could he expect the Little Fatty to come provide support in the bottom lane? For more, Wei Xiao sucked in a breath, and the first words out of his mouth were, If you use the soul warlock and attach to my captain, wont there be ten light arcs in 5v5! Yan Jiang: You can do it too. Wei Xiao: ! Chapter 230: See you later. Wei Xiao was really excited the moment that he heard this. He could! He could too! Oh yeah, he could do it too! The corner of Wei Xiaos lips curved and for once, his words held a veiled threat. Thats right, when I go back, Ill practice with the soul warlock and help my captain brush out ten light arcs. Closes teammate was now him. Why would he think about Captain Yan? He, himself, could help the captain brush out ten light arcs! Wei Xiao continued, My thinking was too limited. He could play the soul warlock, too! The more he thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed, and the more excited he felt. FTW had naturally studied routines with the soul warlock as soon as it had come out. Brother Cai had only trembled. I cant, I cant do it, if you have me attach to a thief, Ill perform tiptoeing over the floorboards on the spot! The coaching team had a very good understanding of his nature. They didnt want to force it. Of course, the soul warlock wasnt as terrible as Brother Cai imagined it to be. In particular, the full-game BP mode meant that talents could only appear once in each game, so the team only needed to create one line-up for the soul warlock. Whoever played the soul warlock would have the chance to be comfortable with whoever he would be attached to. Oh The situation still ended up being a bit difficult. The complication didnt lie in the fact that Brother Cai couldnt play other talents, but in how he didnt want to be the core of the team. The soul warlock support talent represented a change in the way Glory could be played. A line-up where the support was the core was about to be born. Yan Jiang, Li Heran, and even Cong Yi from the China competition zone: these outstanding support players had allowed the game developers to see new possibilities in the game. The salted fish vegetable was really not suited to holding up the pillars of support. Wei Xiao was clear on this. But He could do it! Brother Vegetable couldnt play the soul warlock, but he could. As for how? Wei Xiaos inspiration exploded, and he had a wonderful idea! What if F*ck, it could really work! Wei Xiao said excitedly, Thank you, Captain Yan! This round of guidance was amazing. Yan Jiang: Kim Sung-hyun, whod listened to the whole process: Little Lunatic Wei, youre really something, your brain circuits are really special! Captain Yans you can, too, how could it be anything but telling you that you can brush out ten light arcs too! Was there nothing in your eyes but Close? For some reason, God Kim felt a little choked. Especially after getting killed by Close yet again! Not only was he left choking, he was also angry! Little Lunatic Wei, if you still dont come over here, the bottom lane is going to get cleared out by your captain. Kim Sung-hyun couldnt help speaking up. Wei Xiao was in a good mood. Coming! He called out to Yan Jiang while he was at it, Captain Yan, lets go! Yan Jiang attached himself to the shadow thief and answered, Mm. Kim Sung-hyun was really unable to eke out a way to survive any longer. The first tower might not be safe, but the second one should be fineCCClose, if you dare to go under the second tower to kill Laozi, then Laozi will go to the new FTW base and hang you up for a beating! This was impossible. Lu Feng wasnt like Teacher Yuan, whod lost his wisdom C why would he kill himself just to kill a semi-useless proud flower? By the time Wei Xiao made it to the bottom lane, Xie He had also arrived to provide support. The audience, who could see the scene from Gods perspective, grew excited. Ahhhhh, theyre on the same screen! The Team of Gods are on the same screen! Ive died and come back to life, then died again! Little Lunatic Wei is amazing. Other than him, I cant imagine anyone else who can fit in so well with the Team of Gods. Old G next door is crying. Well feeling a billion seconds of distress for Old G. Hes clearly a professional player who was invited to this casual player competition, but now Hes more like a casual player than the actual casual players. A 3v3 team fight broke out in the bottom lane. Xie Hes void mage forcibly started the group fight, and everyone caught in the Nightmare Prison could only cast spells backwards. Wei Xiao had experience with it and actually managed to use his skills backwards, accurately stacking up marks without getting interrupted. Yan Jiang didnt use the shadow thiefs skills this time and instead aimed the soul warlocks soul blade at Lu Feng. In a double shadow thief battle, especially when their skill levels were equivalent, the most likely situation was for both sides to kill each other off. The light arc range was too wide. No matter who brushed it out or even if they managed to brush them out at the same time, it would end up being fatal to everyone else. The one that Group B had to worry about was Kim Sung-hyun, whod been pressed to under half health and was now hiding beneath the second tower. The nine light arcs might not be able to reach him, but the problem was that Kim Sung-hyuns storm hunter was also out of the range of his own attack. If he couldnt deal any DPS, then what was the difference whether he was there or not? Therefore, Yan Jiang had to hold back Lu Feng and create space for Kim Sung-hyun and Wei Xiao to survive and deal out DPS. Group A was in a relatively better situation, Xie He had started up the group fight, and the Void that hed spread out provided him with sufficient DPS opportunities. Yuan Ze had stacked up on defensive gear. The death knight in its heavy armor form not only had defense but also high immunity to injury. He might really be able to hold up under the damage from Wei Xiaos light arcs, and as long as he didnt die, he would be able to send Wei Xiaoxiao back to the fountain even if he was seriously injured. So, Group B didnt try all that hard to contain Wei Xiao. Of course, it was also difficult to hold him back. Xie He only had soft control skills, which would disappear with some micro manipulation on Wei Xiaos part. Yuan Ze had hard control skills, but he was in heavy armor form and had a short range, which meant that he was unable to reach the shadow thief that was under Yan Jiangs protection. Yan Jiang stepped out and targeted Close. The soul blade anticipated his positioning and interrupted one of the shadow thiefs shadow attacks. In order to brush out a high amount of arcs, the combo absolutely couldnt be broken. This was especially critical when stacking shadow attack marks. As soon as they were unable to land, then forget brushing out a high number of light arcs, even a lesser amount of light arcs might not be able to be brushed out. The audiences hearts leapt up to their throats, and they were so nervous that they were about to explode. They were once the strongest jungler and support combo, they were once tacit teammates, and it was Captain Yan who had once understood Close best But now, they were engaged in a life or death duel! My control skills will no longer help you. My light arcs will no longer rise up for you. The blades they held up to face their enemies were filled with murderous intent. Playing seriously and sparing no effort was their way of showing each other respect! Holy shit! I could watch this segment a hundred times! He avoided it, he avoided it! Close avoided Yan Jiangs soul blade! Oh my god, thats the only time that Captain Yans soul blades ever missed! The great demon king is badass! F*ck me, f*ck me, its confirmed that Close is number one! Calm down, calm down, its just a friendly casual game. Yuan Ze was only controlled so many times in this game because he wasnt playing seriously. Of course, his jungler play is also an affront to the eyes. I dont care. Close is just strong! platform. The fans couldnt be blamed for this peak in excitement. The audience abroad had also been surprised by the scene just now. I havent seen Closes performance in the team competitions in three years. Is he in such good shape now? FTW is different this year. It looks a bit like it did three years ago. Close and Quiet are pretty good, but the other three are just bad imitations of the Team of Gods, right?! Not necessarily, there was a big problem with the Team of Gods It was really big. Otherwise, they wouldnt have split up so quickly. I acknowledge Closes personal strength, but his weaknesses are also obvious. They dont show up in a casual game, so well have to wait and see during the competition. As a Close fan, Brother Mouth had to see it all through. Out of fear that the fans wouldnt understand this wave of micro operations and positioning, he provided a serious and detailed description. He strove to make those who would understand marvel, help those who only knew a little to see the light, and make those who didnt understand at all still feel that it was amazing! In short, Close was able to evade the soul blade and create a great opportunity for Group A! There was a cooldown time for the soul blade. It would be difficult for Yan Jiang to interrupt Close again. Brushing out light arcs required time. And once it was ready, who would wait for your cooldowns to finish? Looking at this trend Once Closes light arcs were in place, Group B would explode on the spot. Even if Wei Xiao brushed out a set of light arcs, he would still be shot back down by this level of damage. If he died first, then theyd really be done for. At that critical instant, Yan Jiang possessed Wei Xiao, and the shadow thief, who had originally been half a step behind, had half a second of accelerated speed. Wei Xiao tsked. How handy. Hed long generated the muscle memory for the combo. Wei Xiao didnt have to think at all and just had to operate. The terrible thing about Yan Jiangs soul warlock was that he didnt need you to think. He just needed you to operate. Because once you started thinking, you would stumble. Once you stumbled, then there wouldnt be any more such extreme level operations. Yan Jiangs cooperation felt very natural. Even the person he was cooperating with didnt feel that they were cooperating with someone else. This was the strength that had united the Team of Gods. This was the ability that built lone wolves who played on their own into a team! And it was also the nine light arcs exploding at the same time, creating that suffocating glow that covered the sky. Even if the audience had already seen it once, it was heady seeing it a second time. Its too f*cking cool, I even think that these two should be split up into two teams! Yes, yes, yes, if the two of them are separated, then when the battle of freedom comes up, damn, the ticket prices will be bid up to sky high prices! Get out of here! Our Quiet and Close love each other and will always be in the same team. Dont jinx it! Upstairs, if Laozis Feng Xiao CP breaks up, youll need to wash your neck and wait for me to chop your head off in the middle of the night! They might play around and stir up a fuss. But it was impossible for them to split up. Once again, it ended in total destruction for both sides. In the 3v3, all six people died. Dont ask, if you ask, then it was because FTWs inherited shadow thief was just too much! The end result of this casual player competition was that Group B won. In fact, the end result wasnt important. All they had to do was to play happily and play brilliantly. Right from the start, the audience never thought that Group A would win. Just based on Teacher Yuans crappy jungler play, if they really won, then the two jungler kings in Group B would really be strung up and killed. Although Close had turned the tide halfway through and regained the advantage for Group A, it was essentially a three against four game, and theyd already fallen behind in the early stages. Wei Xiao was immersed in the game, and Kim Sung-hyun had been fed by the two girls until hed become a real daddy. There would be no heavenly reason in this world if Group A didnt lose. Theyd guessed that Group A would lose, but they hadnt expected that they would lose like this. Everyone was wiped out in the 3v3. Gary, whod been ignored for the whole game, had been working on another critical matter. He didnt join in the group fight and didnt click on the transmission button. He didnt go to provide support, and instead, he took down towers like mad. The top lanes first tower, second tower, base tower! There was still seven seconds left before the fastest resurrection in Group B when Old G attacked the crystal like crazy and ended the game. Who wouldve imagined that L&Ps jungler king, the sixth most popular player in the world, whod been beaten up and died four times in the first half of the game, then become invisible in the second half, would have even less of a sense of existence than the casual players. But it was precisely this big fellow whod ended up determining the winners and losers in this game after his teammates and opponents finished a fierce round of fighting and wiped themselves out. Old G is the winner of life! L&Ps deputy general! The Team of Gods fought, and Gary won. The scrolling comments had fun with the adaptation of old proverbs. Wei Xiao was filled with disdain in the team voice chat, Old G, whats going on with you! Gary: ??? Wei Xiao: We havent played enough yet! Gary: Sorry, hed played enough. Hed really been beaten up enough! Wei Xiao then looked at Yan Jiang. Captain Yan, I wont lose next time. Group B had won. Wei Xiao had won, but he was saying that he wouldnt lose next time. Yan Jiang turned his head to look at him, then quietly whispered a few words. Wei Xiao: See you later! The parties involved didnt feel much about it, but Kim Sung-hyun was stunned. See you later. See you later! Was Yan Jiang saying it to Wei Xiao, or was he saying it to Close? Or maybe He was saying it to FTW. In his heart, Kim Sung-hyun felt a little upset. Three years ago, hed been the one who wanted to leave the most. But whod been the one who wanted to leave the least? Close, Yan Jiang In the past FTW, how much had Yan Jiang paid out in order to twist together this group of problematic youngsters? Chapter 231: The words that he was unable to say out loud, he wanted to say them through... The opening ceremony for the global competition came to a beautiful end. There werent any regular games that day, but everyone was looking forward to the upcoming competition. The stage was great, the special effects were cool, and the players had displayed absolute strength. The scent of gunpowder was in the air even before the war had begun. This summer was destined to set everyones blood boiling! Wei Xiao and Lu Feng stepped off the stage together. They were still in the aisle when Wei Xiao spoke in a whisper, The soul warlock is so interesting. Lu Feng: Hm? Wei Xiao: Captain Yans soul warlock inspired me He chattered on for a long time, talking about the details of the casual player competition just now. Sensing that a camera was coming, Lu Feng touched the back of his hand lightly. Wei Xiao turned his head and shot a big smile at the camera. The camera quickly snapped a shot of FTWs two jungler kings. The two people stood one in front of the other. One had a face as cold as frost, while the other had a sunny disposition, but they looked unexpectedly harmonious when they stood togetherCC Like a gradual spring day with melting frost and snow, dyeing the sky with infinite vitality. After that came a short interview. As a casual player, Wei Xiao naturally wasnt invited. Yan Jiang, Close, and Xie He had never participated in such activities. Yuan Ze didnt mind, and he didnt feel any awkwardness after playing jungler so badly. He stood there and smiled calmly. On the other hand, the host blushed, and her heart pounded. She didnt even dare to tease him. There was also Old G, whose bad Chinese made the whole audience laugh loudly. The audience in the scrolling comments also screamed, G Darling, how can a big man like you be so cute! Someone replied, Its because Teacher Yuan trained him up well! Teacher Yuan was really good at such things. To the left was his old teammate Proud Flower Kim, and to the right was his current teammate, Big G. They were all great students that hed taught. Captain Yuan was a winner of life! If he wasnt so crappy at playing jungler, hed be perfect. In the car on the way back to the base, Wei Xiao was still talking about the soul warlock. Brother Cais skin tensed up when he heard the words soul warlock, and he sat there trembling in the shotgun seat out of fear that Wei Xiao would say, Practice the shadow thief, hidden thief, berserker thief, immortal thief, immortal warlock, soul warlock, storm hunter, and death knight! Yeah, Brother Cai had scared himself to death! Unexpectedly, Wei Xiaos next sentence was, Tomorrow, Ill go visit Captain Yan and learn from him! Lu Feng: After chattering the whole time, Wei Xiao finally discovered that the captain wasnt in a great mood, Captain? Lu Feng: Mm. Wei Xiao: Whats the matter It couldnt be that he was in a bad mood after losing the game, right? Lu Feng: Nothing much. Wei Xiao: If Yuan Ze had played even a little more seriously, you guys wouldnt have lost! Finally, he added another sentence, If you were in the same group as Captain Yan, then youd really wu Lu Feng kissed him. Wei Little Xiao, who had skin as thick as city walls, blushed! He couldnt say a single word, and his brain was buzzing. What was going on Brother Cai rubbed its doggy head. Be more self aware. Us single dogs should be more self aware (Feeling sour? It would be strange if he wasnt sour)! As soon as they went upstairs and closed the door, Wei Xiao leaned over and kissed Lu Feng. Lu Feng: Dont make trouble. Wei Xiao stared at him. You kissed me first. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: Who told you to cough, fortunately, it wasnt inside your Cullinan. It was okay when they didnt mention the Cullinan, but the air heated up once they did. Wei Xiao had never been the patient type. He deliberately leaned into Lu Fengs ear and called out to him, Captain~ Lu Fengs eyes were hooded. Wei Xiao kissed him. I want His mouth was blocked. Wei Xiao narrowed his eyes, his eyes filled with arousal. Theyd just finished playing in the canyon. And carried on playing in bed. It was delightful and satisfying either way. There was no language that could describe how happy Wei Xiao was. Wei Xiao leaned against Lu Feng bonelessly and asked Lu Feng to feed him. The food was all light and easy to digest, and Wei Xiao ate happily. Just before it was time to go to bed, Wei Xiao started thinking about proper business again. Oh yeah, Captain. Lu Feng was also getting ready to sleep. Hm? Wei Xiao brought it up again, Captain Yans soul warlock inspired me wu Hed been kissed again! Wei Xiao opened his eyes wide. If he still didnt understand, then he wouldnt be the clever and smart Wei Little Xiao that he was. Lu Feng: Sleep. How could Wei Xiao sleep? He turned over and sat up, then blinked. Could it be Lu Feng pulled him over and surrounded him. Wei Xiaos voice was as sweet as honey. Captain, are you jealous? Although he knew that his captains nickname had a tendency to switch from great demon king to great vinegar king, but Lu Feng buried his face against Wei Xiaos neck, his voice low and stuffy, Dont think about other people. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng repeated, Sleep. There would be something really wrong if Wei Xiao was able to sleep now! Such a lovely and cute captain made his heart, liver, and lungs all melt! God, even the big fanfiction writers didnt dare to write about the great demon king like this! Only Wei Xiao got to see this kind of Close. It was over He was so happy that he wanted to explode! Wei Xiao desperately tried to press the corners of his mouth down, trying not to let them rise up towards the sun. Whats there to be jealous about? Lu Feng: Wei Xiao: Captain Yan attaches great importance to me The hand wrapped around his waist tightened. Wei Xiao laughed. But Captain Yuan and God Kim are both very good to me too. Lu Feng was silent. Wei Xiao rubbed at the back of his hand and whispered, They and I are chance acquaintances. Its because of you that they take care of me. The careless and bold Wei Xiao, who seemed to be able to get along with everyone, was actually very clear on how things worked. Whether it was Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He, who wasnt good at communicating, or the enigmatic Yan Jiang, they all paid a lot of attention to Wei Xiao. Was there anything about Wei Xiao that was worth their attention? Wei Xiao didnt think so. There were many excellent professional players, and he wasnt good enough to attract the attention of so many peak level players. In the final analysis, the reason for the current situation was Lu Feng. Even if they didnt know about the relationship between Wei Xiao and Lu Feng, they all knew how important Wei Xiao was. He was very important to both Close and FTW. Regardless of whether it was Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, or Xie He and Yan Jiang Three years had passed. There were many things that couldnt be said, and many things that could no longer be done. The past wouldnt come back, and all that could be seen was the present. Wei Xiao was Closes current teammate. Captain Wei Xiao turned around and rubbed against him. They all really Care about you. These last three words were spoken very, very lightly. They were like a cool breeze on a summer night, inadvertently solving all the troubles in ones heart. Lu Feng hugged him. Wei Xiao heard him whisper quietly, I know. Wei Xiaos heart suddenly softened into a pool of water. There was no need to say more. Wei Xiao understood Lu Feng. From beginning to end, from three years ago until now, from the breaking up of the Team of Gods, through the entirety of FTWs bumpy road When faced with teammates leaving, partners who left without saying goodbye, and fragmented homes, Close, whod been left to support everything on his own, had never blamed anyone. These big brothers all felt guilty about leaving Close alone. But the last thing Close wanted was their guilt. It wasnt anger or pride. He simply didnt want them to bear such a heavy burden. The past was long gone. There was no right or wrong. Close didnt want to bind anyone with the past. In these past three years of globals, hed been very eager to rush into the top eight and was very much looking forward to meeting them there. The words that he was unable to say out loud, he wanted to say them through a fierce battle in the arena. Unfortunately, there hadnt been a chance to do so. FTW couldnt make it into the global team competition, and the others had given up on the singles. Wei Xiaos eyes were red. Theres a chance this time. For more, The audience had already started shouting, 3:0! 3:0! Wei Xiao certainly wouldnt talk carelessly on such an important occasion. He smiled like a fox. We wont leave anyone disappointed. Alright then, that was blatant enough. 3:0 or something like that, it really wouldnt be a surprise. During the blind hero selection part of the first match, after Wei Xiao locked in the soul warlock, the audience finally reacted, Holy sh*t! FTW is going to stir things up! The author has something to say: The globals are here~ Chapter 232: What they wanted was the world championship! Talents were still selected one by one in the battle of freedom. Although neither side could see what the other side had chosen, the audience could see it clearly with Gods perspective. The audience was stirred up for a while when Wei Xiao took the soul warlock, but then they all shared a similar sentiment: Little Lunatic Weis acting up again! Darling, dont act up! Its the globals! The audience in the live broadcast studio also comforted each other after the scare: Sorry, sorry, my cub is a little playful. Dont panic, dont panic, just wait for the great demon king to step up, and the little lunatic will start behaving! Q Cub, stay steady, your captain will kill you if your hand shakes, and you lock it in. F*ck! He really f*cking locked it in! There was no talking about advantages or priorities during blind selection mode. Everyone would basically take the talent they were planning to use, and there was no need to snatch it up for others. Once Wei Xiao locked in the soul warlock, the mentality of the fans collapsed, and they all started screaming. When it came to being surprised, theyd first be shocked, then figure out the rest. Wei Xiao had kept his word. Without talking about whether or not it was a pleasant surprise, he shocked everyone first. Some fans immediately tried to come up with an explanation on their own, About that can talents be exchanged during the blind selection mode? They can, they can. Wei Xiao will definitely switch it up with Brother Cai. Look, Brother Cai took the power thief! I dont quite understand. Theyre using the power thief instead of the shadow thief in the battle of freedom? Close locked in the shadow thief ahhhhh! Damn, so theyre going to start with a double thief line-up? Oh my god, Im all for this! Little Lunatic! Big sister forgives you! The audience couldnt be blamed for thinking like this. Wei Xiaos tactics were too shocking, and even the commentators, who could see a hint of what was happening, didnt dare to think in that direction. Judging from the talents that FTW selected, there didnt seem to be a problem. Shadow thief, power thief, soul warlock, immortal warlock, storm hunter. Like hell there wasnt a problem! This problem was so big that it was earth shaking, okay?! What kind of talents were these? Light arcs, thousand layers of clouds, stepping on raindrops Was this Glory bungee jumping?! Was Bai Cai that badass? Could he use the soul warlock and attach to these demonic talents? Had Brother Cai gone crazy, or had FTW gone crazy, or did they feel that the audience in the China competition zone couldnt hold up knives anymore? It was a knockout game in a global competition. Every game would be thrilling, okay! Dont suffer major setbacks due to carelessness, darlings! It wasnt that everyone looked down on the white cabbage. However, looking at the support players from all over the world Oh, be more confident. There were only a few players in the whole world who could use all of these talents skillfully, okay! Close was one of them. Quiet was another one. Other than the two of them, who else was there? FTW already had two all-rounder players. There couldnt be a third! Brother Cai, wake up, if youve been threatened, just cry loudly! Even if it was the talent hed selected, no one in the audience had the slightest suspicion that Wei Xiao would really be the one playing the soul warlock. He must be messing around. A jungler using the soul warlock? How was he going to kill jungle creeps? How was he going to control the dragon? How was he going to snatch up farm and lead the rhythm? No matter how whimsical their thinking was, they didnt think that Wei Xiao would be using the soul warlock. Even if the soul warlock was using the jungler open skill for the game. That was normal, there were support heroes who took the jungler skill in order to go into the other sides jungle zone or to help the jungler control their jungle. Teams with jungler cores used them occasionally, and it wasnt strange. Until Holy shit, why arent they switching talents? Countdown! Five seconds! Why havent Wei Xiao and Bai Cai traded talents? Whats the situation? Did the game freeze? It cant be that they plan to switch at the last second, right? Little Lunatic Wei, dont mess around, we know you have amazing hand speed, but dont challenge our hearts like this! Its over, its over, the map has started loading! Did they switch? Wei Xiao and Bai Cai switched, right? It cant be Bai Cai playing jungler! I have the feeling that they didnt change Holy shit, is something going to happen at the start of the competition? And they were still talking about 3:0, theyre f*cking going to get crushed instead. My heart exploded. If FTW loses here, Im going to take Wei Xiao down with me, damn it! They cant have made such a low level mistake, right? This hater doesnt want to lose to IN! What the hell is this! My face was beaten swollen by this fool! It wont happen, it wont happen. At most, itll just be 3:1! The live audience exploded, and the fans in the live broadcast room went crazy. A crowd of foreign watchers were waiting to see them make a joke of themselves, and the commentators froze for a moment and almost forgot their words! If Glorys Mic Explosion King could do a live broadcast, then these big guys wouldnt have to be scared into tears. FTWs internal team chat was very smooth. There was no error. There was no slip of the hand. Forgetting to switch talents was something that would never happen. Theyd decided to do this right from the start, and theyd discussed it for a long time. This matter originated from the opening game. After coaxing his boyfriend, Wei Xiao finally shared his full thoughts. Even without mentioning others, Lu Feng himself was stunned. Use the soul warlock as a jungler? Wei Xiao: Yes! Lu Feng: When it comes to rhythm Wei Xiaos eyes were crystal bright. Theres Brother Cai! Bai Cai trembled. I cant, I cant, if you have me play jungler, I wont be able to play out even one tenth of Yuan Zes skill. Yes, Teacher Yuan has become a jungler benchmark. One tenth of Teacher Yuan was too modest, and Wei Xiao comforted him, One tenth is too exaggerated. I think you can manage at least one fifth. Bai Cai: You might as well have not said anything! Chen Feng frowned and thought about it. Lu Feng had already understood what Wei Xiao meant. Well have Bai Cai fight jungler for you before level six? Wei Xiao: Yes! Bai Cai was still confused. How do I help you? Wei Xiao looked at him. You can use the power thief. Bai Cai: ! Wasnt this f*cking having Laozi play jungler ahhhhh, Laozi didnt want to ahhhhh! Wei Xiao was worthy of being the person who understood the vegetable the best. He knew Bai Cais hero pool even better than Bai Cai himself. The two of them had been together since they had started playing Glory. Without mentioning their early years together, later, after Brother Cai had joined FTW, Wei Xiao had become an accompanying player for other professional players, and hed also been Bai Cais accompanying trainer. Asleep, Moonlit, and Eurostar-star had only played solo with Wei Xiao, while Brother Cai had experienced everything. When Wei Xiao played jungler, Brother Cai played support. When Wei Xiao played mid-lane, Brother Cai played support. When Wei Xiao played bottom lane, Brother Cai played support It was even to the point that when Wei Xiao played support, Brother Cai was also a support. That last point was the key point. As a professional support player, Bai Caicai had a dream. That dream was that he wanted to have a jungler king play support for him. Wei Xiao rarely played support, but when he did, it was to coax a certain vegetable. There was no way to prevent the way that Brother Cais fans from his live broadcast room especially loved watching the jungler king spoil his wife, so Wei Xiao had played it quite a lot. Brother Cai only had to cry to Wei Xiao, Old Wei, you dont know how it is, FTW is so miserable now. Close had to sell two cars in order to feed the family! My live broadcast gifts are also shared with the club. I dont want to get rich for myself, its all for FTW, for your male god Close! Wei Xiao: Brother Cai: Im not proud to say it, but Close had no choice but to solo with others in order to arrange training matches for us These words were enough to stab Wei Xiao to death. Let alone helping him play support, hed be okay with being beat up! However, Brother Cai was really crappy. His jungler was an affront to the eyes. Losing the game affected the effectiveness of his live broadcast. For the sake of gifts that didnt have much to do with him, Wei Xiao thought up a countermeasure. Although Brother Cai used a thief, Wei Xiao would still be the one to control the rhythm. Brother Cai didnt actually have any objections to being a toolman. After their winning rate improved, Bai Cai really became addicted to this way of playing. He couldnt use any particularly difficult talents, and he was unexpectedly good at using functional talents like the power thief. The power thief had four skills, three of which were control skills. This was an extremely good talent for Brother Cai, who was a professional control support. So Brother Cai was unexpectedly skilled at using the power thief. He really was able to use this talent. Chen Feng looked over. Caicais power thief? Bai Cai nodded stiffly. Its usable. Chen Feng raised his chin. Bai Cai understood what he meant and opened up the training camp to play a game. Chen Feng: Not bad, theres some skill here. Bai Cai looked up with eyes filled with tears. Wei Xiao said excitedly, Brother Cai can use the power thief and help me clear the jungle creeps before level six. When the soul warlock has attachment, then everything will be easy. Chen Feng thought it over. Lu Fengs eyes held a trace of a smile. Its possible. Chen Feng glanced at Lu Feng. Lu Feng: Ill use the shadow thief to make up for the damage. Wei Xiao: Yes! Wei Xiao grew more energetic and spoke endlessly, speaking on and on until the little ones in the training room were all left in a daze. Ning Zhehan: In that case, Ill use the immortal warlock! Having two immortal warlocks in the canyon would be amazing. Yue Wenle: Ill use the storm hunter. Two storm hunters stepping on raindrops together, what kind of scene would that be? Chen Feng: Come and give it a try. They didnt have to look for anyone else. They picked out one of their brother teams to test it out. After playing four training matches together, Money was convinced. Who came up with this routine? Wei Xiao: Hey. Money: He was convinced, thoroughly convinced! What kind of devilish tactics were these? Anyone who tried it would go bald. And the most deadly thing was that this tactic Even globally, there were really only a few people who could use it well. Could Yan Jiang do it? Yan Jiang might not have the same effect with it as Wei Xiao did! After all, the little lunatic was famous for his rhythm control. Hed always liked biting people all over the map, and now, hed become impossible to stop! As for todays battle of freedom, Chen Feng had naturally held a meeting early on to discuss whether or not to use this new tactic. Chen Feng tended towards stability. I suggest that we play conventionally. Double thieves is good, but the soul warlock should be set aside for now. After all, it was an elimination system, and IN had provoked the entire China competition zone. FTW couldnt afford to make mistakes. Wei Xiao: I think we can use the soul warlock. Chen Feng frowned. Dont mess around, play steadily Wei Xiao wasnt being irrational. Hed thought it over carefully. We have to practice it. Chen Feng: Using the globals to train? His voice was higher than before. Wei Xiao really dared to nod. Chen Fengs frown deepened, and he was about to get angry. Wei Xiao continued, The 16 to eight round is our only chance. As soon as these words came out, Chen Feng calmed down instantly. The elimination system is really very dangerous, but do we only want to get into the top eight? We only have four games. Who will we meet in the eight into four? Who will we meet for the four into two? And theres no need to mention the finals. If we dont practice this line-up now, then we really wont have a chance. Could it be that we have to wait until the later games when weve come to a dead end before giving it a try? Wei Xiaos every word and sentence shot straight into everyones heart. 16 into eight was really their only chance to try it out. This line-up was very unique. Calling it FTWs killer trump card wouldnt be overboard. However, they didnt have any more time left. They didnt have any experience with it in competitions, and it was difficult to say if there were any defects in their tactics. If they didnt dare to use it in the 16 into eight, then would they dare to use it later? If they were afraid even when facing IN, then what about when they faced the Team of Gods? Would the players be prepared enough when they decided to use this line-up later on? Wei Xiaos last sentence shocked Chen FengC- Coach, if we want to win against the Team of Gods, then we have to do our best. What did the top eight amount to, what did the top four amount to? What was the runner-up? What they wanted was the world championship! Chapter 233: Glory obscure knowledge: there are three junglers in FTW! These words shocked everyone. Ning Zhehan said, Practice it! Theres still a lot of room for improvement in this line-up! Yue Wenle: Yes, we have to seize the opportunity. They really didnt have much time. Chen Feng finally agreed, Alright. Winning the championship wasnt easy. They had to do everything possible. This soul warlock line-up was a surprise trump card for FTW, and they had to have firm control over it! Moreover, it was only the first game. Even if they lost, he believed that these cubs would still be able to win three games in a row and defeat IN. So, let alone the unsuspecting audience, even the FTW coaching team was worried. Losers were always in the wrong. These so-called tactics were only worthy of being called tactics if they won! Come on! Chen Feng had already written out a draft Weibo post. If they lost, then he would carry the blame and not let the fans flame the players. The players on the stage were quite relaxed. Wei Xiao was still in the mood to tease Brother Cai, Add oil, jungler king! Bai Cai: He was more likely to spill oil! Bai Cai didnt know what kind of evil hed done in his previous life that resulted in him meeting Little Lunatic Wei in this life. His salted fish life was drifting away! This was the life of getting put up on the shelf to work and being torn to pieces by FTWs violent fans if he wasnt able to pull this off. After taking a deep breath, both sides entered the canyon! On INs side, they were able to see FTWs line-up during the game loading process. Their support was stunned, This is their hand slipped? Mid-laner Otee narrowed his eyes, Using the soul warlock to play jungler? Their junglers tone wasnt very good. Who are they looking down on! Their ADC sneered, Are they treating us like were training soldiers? The China competition zone is really crazy this year. FTW and IN had some grudges between them. The atmosphere on the foreign side of the internet was messier than it was in China. The competition zones were all mixed together, and there were a huge number of people who just wanted to watch the excitement. Although Otee had provoked them first, the China competition zone had also fought back hard, making them act even more shamelessly. Coupled with those who wanted to fish in muddy waters, there were even more people who wanted to see them make a joke out of themselves. When it came to this game, IN was 100% serious. In order to win against FTW, theyd take out everything they had. They werent afraid of exposing their tactics, and they wouldnt dare to keep anything hidden. Theyd taken a strong line-up that had over a 90% win rate for the battle of freedom. They wanted to win, and they had to win. If they lost, theyd be mocked like dogs when they returned to their competition zone. There was no way back. Even if the other players from IN objected to Otees stupid behavior, it was already done and they had to go on. They had to fix their external problems before tidying up internally. This game was one that they had to win! They were well prepared and in excellent condition. Theyd taken out their guardian line-up for the blind selection in the first game, but unexpectedly, the other side was playing so strangely! Otee: Dont underestimate the enemy. It might be a trap. IN was very cautious. Even when everyone in the audience was booing FTW, they didnt make any rash actions. They played how they should as every game they won was a game gained. The players from IN had been able to kill their way out of their own competition zone, which meant that they had some level of skill. Even the directors seemed to prefer FTW. They frequently switched the cameras to FTW and paid attention to what they were doing. The audience in the live broadcast studio had recovered: Calm down, calm down, with the great demon king, FTW wont mess around. Yes, yes, yes, calm down a bit! Just think about the casual player competition from before. Little Lunatic Wei grew even stronger with Captain Yans blessing and was explosively badass. But the problem is that theres nothing wrong with Captain Yan taking the soul warlock as a support player. Wei Xiao hes the core DPS dealer in the team! I dont think theres any need to panic. Theres no problem with Closes shadow thief. As long as Brother Cais power thief isnt too crappy, Wei Xiao can attach to both thieves. Thats reasonable. Use the power thief for control and the shadow thief for damage. FTW has really come up with some ideas! Let me say quietly, Wei Xiaos immortal warlock and storm hunter are also very powerful. Holy shit Holy shit?! One sentence woke up the dreamers. The fans whod been scared by this line-up finally thought it over. FTWs line-up had appeared too abruptly. They didnt know much about the soul warlock, and coupled with their inherent prejudice, they hadnt thought in this direction at all. Now The commentators had already started discussing it, Will we be able to see a double set of light arcs in this game? Maybe not only that. Quiets immortal warlock can easily brush out a thousand layers of clouds. Commentator Sister Qi was more conservative, The soul warlock mechanism limits combos to only 50% of its real effect. It wont be easy to brush out a thousand layers of clouds. Brother Mouth was also afraid of jinxing Wei Xiao to death. He continued, He can put a hold on such extreme operations, but as long as he can play conventionally, itll still be very valuable. Sister Qi: The most worrisome thing is mixing up the skills. Ive practiced with the soul warlock after it was released, and theres a whole string of skills after the attachment. It made me dizzy looking at it; also, I can only move where my teammate moves. If its not the positioning that I want, then the skills will miss The commentators were talking constantly about the difficulty level involved with the soul warlock, which was also a way of giving respect to FTW. In case they performed poorly or had bad operations and made mistakes, it wouldnt be the players problem. The mechanism for the soul warlock was very difficult, and time was clearly required for the players to familiarize themselves with it. The audience members hearts felt like it was suspended in the air. They were very afraid of FTW capsizing. The two sides whod entered the canyon had just started clearing out the jungle and lanes. The audience stands were very quiet, and even the scrolling comments had decreased in frequency. The sisters who were there to ship CPs were quiet, while the haters were building up strength. There were only a few rational fans left analyzing the situation. INs jungler had rushed into FTWs jungle zone! The voices of the commentators lifted slightly, and the audience didnt even dare to breathe too loudly. It was over, it was over. Could Brother Cai deal with it? How was Wei Xiaos soul warlock? INs jungler was a berserker thief, which was super powerful in the early stages, and the daddy-level support elemental shaman. When these two talents invaded the other sides jungle in the early stages, whoever they fought would die. Wei Xiao: Theyre here. Bai Cai sat up as straight as a pen, Mm. At the moment when the berserker thief appeared, the power thiefs ground stab shot out. INs jungler wasnt bad. He shifted slightly and avoided it, while the elemental shaman behind him tossed out a control totem at the power thief. He released a skill that exposed vision. If the power thief got controlled, then FTW would end up in a miserable situation. In this case, it was usually the support who first oh, FTWs support was now the power thief. But the problem was that the support didnt have any DPS right now! The audience went crazy again, Its over, its over, its really no good, they were really just messing around for fun! Theyre done for, theyre done for. I dont dare watch this game anymore ahhhh! Just when everyone thought that the power thief would get locked in by the elemental shaman and killed by the berserker thief, Bai Cai attacked instead of retreating and stabbed the berserker thief with a long sword. No vision? Theyd put in vision a long time ago! INs jungler was surprised, not having expected that the other sides power thief would be so strong. The elemental shaman said, Dont be scared, its just a support. It wasnt that he looked down on supports, but it was because he was a support that he knew that a support players game awareness was very different from that of a DPS player. Bai Cai had taken the power thief, but he still had the game awareness of a support. This was the same as sending himself up to die. The berserker thief calmed down. This made sense. When faced with a power thief played by a support, what was there to be afraid of? INs First Blood was guaranteed! Bai Cai had gone out with nothing but straw sandals and had very low DPS. He stabbed the berserker thief, but was only able to scrape off a quarter of his health. But he attacked again, and because he hit him in the side, he was able to land a critical hit! The audience made a wow sound. No one had any expectations for Bai Cais power thief, the commentators included. However, his operation right now had been very detailed, and it wasnt something that could be played out casually. The scrolling comments were even more surprised. Brother Cais not bad! Glory obscure knowledge: there are three junglers in FTW! Wasnt he supposed to be a little wife? Howd he turn out to be so fierce! Im ready, Im ready, charge, Brother Cai! The director changed the scene to a close-up of Bai Cai. The thin youth who always liked to laugh had his lips pursed as he stared at the screen. He looked focused and serious. Old Wei! Coming. Wei Xiaos careless voice sounded out. A soul blade flew out towards the berserker thief and landed perfectly! Bai Cai rushed up again, landing another side attack. His angle was very accurate leading to another critical hit! If there was anyone who had said that Bai Cai was like a blind cat killing a dead mouse on the first hit, then those people were now silenced. He could play. Bai Cai really knew how to play the power thief! The fans screamed as one. Is Brother Cai going to take First Blood? Is my vegetable rising up! Dont ask me why I keep rubbing my eyes! I have to rub them! This isnt a f*cking illusion, right? IN obviously hadnt expected this support player to play the power thief so well. This level of micro-operations couldnt be performed by any ordinary casual player. The berserker thief stopped taking him lightly and wanted to retreat. The elemental shaman also traded his health in for an acceleration totem in the hopes that the berserker thief could escape. However, the soul warlock was already lurking in a good position. There were two kinds of soul blades. One could send the opponent flying, while the other would deal DPS from a distance. The former was an important control skill, and the second skill, for a support player, was the skill that they tossed out when waiting for other skills to cooldown and deal some DPS. But Wei Xiaos soul warlock wasnt a support. The base DPS value was very low, so hed gone out with a small wooden staff that added over 100 points of spell damage. The berserker thief whod been beaten into low health by Brother Cai saw the soul blade flying towards him, but he instinctively didnt think too much of it. The blue soul blade wouldnt send him flying, and based on the soul warlocks damage, it might not break through his defenses at all, so The elemental shaman: Get away! But it was too late. platform. That half a second of hesitation meant that the soul blade had already smashed into the berserker thiefs face. The skill had hit 100% accurately, and the damage value appeared over the berserker thiefs headCC291. The berserker thiefs heart went cold. System AnnouncementCC First Blood! FTW.Quiet killed IN.Lewis. Who wouldve dared to think that FTW could win an advantage and First Blood with such a stupid line-up?! Fierce applause broke out at the venue, and the scrolling comments were filled with a large stretch of 6666. Little Lunatic Wei is still your lunatic daddy. He can snatch up kills even with a support talent! Brother Cai, dont cry, the next kill will be yours! Oh my, I didnt think that was possible! The commentators tried hard not to be biased, but how could they not be? Brother Mouth captured the key point directly. Just now, the berserker thief had 290 health points left. The soul warlocks damage control was amazing. The soul warlock had a low base DPS. Without the small wooden staff, he wouldve dealt about 190 points of damage, which wasnt enough to kill the berserker thief. However, Wei Xiao had never been a support. Hed considered himself as a c-position right from when he went out and didnt put on straw sandals or grab a jungler knife. Instead, hed picked up a wooden stick. Why? Because he couldnt kill anyone without this wooden stick. It was likely that the other side would come into their jungle, so he hadnt picked up the jungler knife initially. Since he wouldnt be able to clear his jungle anyway, they might as well fight first! At this time, a great god dropped into the live broadcast studio. A real great god, a great god in all aspects. Money: You may not believe it if I say it, but I was killed by the little lunatic just like this the night before yesterday. These words were followed by a gift of 666 rockets. When this big god came out he had to display enough of a grand scene. Although he didnt have any more pocket money, Brother Hui would tighten up his belt in order to help his brother team. Besides, Money didnt know how to send out scrolling comments in the live broadcast studio without sending out gifts. Chapter 234: Thousand layers of clouds was also called thousand layers of snow. Due to the spectacular special effects, the fans could confirm that the account was who he claimed to be. For a time, the number of scrolling comments soared. Some were normal, Training match? FTW and RR are really a family; its confirmed. Sharing such important tactics with their good brothers first. Some people helped Money reply, It wasnt necessarily sharing, however getting abused was a certainty. Of course, there were those who gossiped, I never thought that the little lunatic would be a gong and actually managed to get Money. Tsk, tsk. The collection of strange CPs has increased again. Watch out for the great demon kings deep gaze! CPs can be taken apart but cant be reversed! The All Lunatic party will never acknowledge defeat! Taken apart but not reversed??? Is it that my great demon king cant lift up a blade, or that you little girls are over inflated? This sentence from Money smoothed away the worries in countless viewers nervous hearts. It was obvious that FTW had practiced this line-up in advance. However, they may not have practiced it for long since the soul warlock talent had only been released for a few days. Still, it was good that theyd practiced, and the fans also knew how strong RR was. If they could make Money complain repeatedly, then there must really be something to their line-up. Unfortunately, the players were still slowly clearing out the jungle. In the past, the players seemed to reach level six in moments, but today, it seemed that they were playing very slowly, their experience crawling up bit by bit. It took forever for the soul warlock to level up. The audience didnt want to let Mo Hui run off. They urged him, Captain Mo, start a live broadcast and provide commentary, well go support you! Mo Hui sent out another pile of rockets. No way. The audience looked at this big move and inexplicably felt that these two words were so willful that they were asking for a beating. It was great having money! Well, money was really a little amazing So angry! They really wanted to go to RR and rip Money apart by hand! Mo Hui wasnt looking down on the gifts from the fans, but rather, Its all blood and tears. Ill start crying if I start a live broadcast. Fans laughed loudly, Were you abused so miserably? Is the soul warlock line-up really that strong? Mo Hui: Im leaving. I dont want to watch this game, it triggering me too much. The audience in the scrolling comments hurriedly asked him to stay, Dont, tell us more about it. Can Little Lunatic Wei really use his soul warlock to attach to the immortal warlock? Can he brush out thousand layers of clouds? Is it strong? Mo Hui: Strong? Ha. My familys Moon-moon hasnt spoken to me at all today. The audience in the scrolling comments: ???? The CP fans screamed shrilly! They stopped just short of driving a small train over to dye the live broadcast studio into a vast sea of yellow. Mo Hui sighed, He disdains me for being unable to play the soul warlock you tell me if Little Lunatic Wei is strong or not. A large number of ellipses appeared in the scrolling comments. Strong, he was really strong. An immortal warlock that could make Moonlit collapse They were looking forward to it so much that they were about to explode, okay! Some career focused fans were still worried, Captain Mo, do you think that FTW has a high chance of winning this game? Can they win? They wont screw up, right? Mo Hui saw this comment and actually replied, Ha, ha. If FTW actually loses, then Ill go and blow up their base. The audience in the scrolling comments: ! Mo Huis gorgeous scrolling comments sported a noble title, and they flew into countless fans eyes. We played four training matches and lost all four. If he loses to IN now, doesnt it prove that were worse than IN? Then, he continued and asked, Is RR worse than IN? These worse were both crazy and arrogant, and were displayed with a golden rich tyrant special effect. The scrolling comments: RR is badass! Money is badass! The China competition zone is badass! A fire was lit up in the live broadcast room. It could be predicted that if FTW lost this game, whether or not the base would be blown up was unknown, but the team would definitely accumulate many tonnes of blades. The fans stared at the canyon, stared at Little Lunatic Wei, and watched for FTWs next moves. The soul warlock in the canyon had finally reached level 5 and was only one step away from level 6! Money had really taken his special effects with him and left the room. He really didnt plan to watch the game. There was nothing to watch. This match with IN was the same as the second match in their training matches. Out of four training matches, RR had been a bit careless in the first game and had been caught off guard by Little Lunatic Wei. They had lost miserably. In the second game, they were still a little confused. They were tentative and cautious, scared of making mistakes. They tried to think about how to break up this routine, yet as a result, they fell into FTWs trap. What FTW was most afraid of was the period of time when the soul warlock couldnt use attachment, prior to hitting level 6. The fight in the jungle zone had actually been a bluff. If Money hadnt seized the initiative to invade their jungle zone at the time, it would be difficult to say how FTW would continue the game. However, who could react to this? When faced with such an abrupt line-up, when faced with this unreasonable little lunatic. Either their psychological defenses were lax, and they took it lightly, therefore losing the game, or they were too cautious and missed the best opportunity, ensuring that they were unable to turn the tables. IN was obviously doing the latter. Their first invasion had been repulsed, and they had to be flustered. This slight hesitation, paired with a wait-and-see attitude things would go badly. Wei Xiao had taken a little wooden stick in the early stages and crouched in the jungle with Brother Cai in order to stir up the first wave of momentum. And it was really a bluff. Their jungle zone wasnt really indefensible. It was alright for Brother Cai to show off briefly, but he would soon expose his weaknesses if he fought with people head-on. However, would Wei Xiao give the other side this chance? Would he give someone who didnt understand their line-up a chance to react? Obviously not. Take First Blood and give them a scare. That was Wei Xiaos purpose. Then, theyd hurry and clear the jungle, develop quickly, and rush to level six. To be honest, Little Lunatic Wei was more eager to reach level 6 than the audience. Brother Cais palms were sweaty. They really wont dare to come? Wei Xiao: Hurry up, hurry up, take turns using discipline and maximize the damage! Hed already sold his wooden staff and replaced it with a jungler knife in order to clear the jungle quicker. At present, the biggest problem with the soul warlock was the early stages, which was the period before it reached level 6. The damage dealt was too low, and the jungle clearing speed was too slow. Brother Cai only had average DPS control and his speed in clearing the jungle was quite a bit worse than Wei Xiaos. Of course, this wasnt all Brother Cais fault. Although hed taken the power thief, this talent was still essentially a support talent. Wei Xiaos soul warlock was eating both experience and gold, and while his experience soared, his damage wouldnt increase too much. It would be strange if they were able to clear the jungle quickly. After calming down for a bit, INs support spoke up, Thats not right! At the end of the day, he was still someone whod somewhat mastered the soul warlock. Although hed been startled by Wei Xiao initially, he still thought it through, You cant let the soul warlock reach level 6 just like this! As soon as these words came out, the jungler also figured it out. F*ck! What dogs! The elemental shaman spoke to mid-laner Otee, The three of us cant let him develop so comfortably. Theyd all woken up a little late. Wei Xiao was only a tiny bit short of hitting level 6. However, they didnt want to delay anymore. They had to hurry up and suppress the soul warlock or else they would have problems when they reached level 6! The audience watched carefully. They saw that Wei Xiao had almost reached level 6, saw that hed filled up more than half his experience bar, and they saw Damn it, INs coming over to gank them! The three of them are surrounding them, while the immortal warlock, who still doesnt have his ultimate move, is struggling to clear the lane. This is dangerous. Dont let anything happen, please dont let anything happen! It was unknown if the prayer was useful, but Brother Cai had a keen sense of smell, Somethings wrong. Wei Xiao looked at the minimap and spoke seriously, Herd them to the mid-lane. Brother Cai was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at the situation on the minimap and let out a sigh of relief, Okay! platform. There was no need to communicate or say more. They could all see one point on the mapCCthe top lane. Although the audience was watching from gods perspective, they werent in the canyon and didnt have the same tactical awareness. They could only stare at the place where the fight was about to break out, and they werent paying attention to anywhere else on the map. All they saw was Wei Xiao and Bai Cai moving towards the middle lane as though they were planning to meet up with the immortal warlock. IN noticed it too. Otee was happy, The immortal warlock in the mid-lane hasnt reached level 6 yet either. Well take them all in! Who cared about what kind of routine they were using? If they lost three kills in the early stages, then they could just wait and see how FTW could recover from such a disadvantage! INs elemental shaman created an acceleration totem. Although it could only be used by one person in the early stages, as long as the berserker thiefs scythe was able to lock onto one person, they would definitely be able to kill them on the spot with Otees DPS. After one of them died, both the berserker thief and spirit mage would have their passive abilities triggered. IN was definitely going to win this wave of 3v3. There was nothing wrong with this thinking. The fans were also worried, and they even started comforting each other. Trust Quiet. I believe that he can survive! The immortal warlock should be able to survive too! Come on, come on it would be great if none of them died! The commentators woke up the dreamers. Close is soloing the silver dragon! The director immediately cut out a small frame that showed the shadow thief soloing the silver dragon. At this time in the game, the silver dragon was a small one. It was two sizes smaller than its maximum size, and it had much lower health and defense. Based on the shadow thiefs efficiency, it would only take a few moments to kill the silver dragon. Once the little silver dragon fell to the ground, it would increase the whole teams experience bar! They then took another look at the three FTW players in the mid-lane. The immortal warlocks experience bar was at level 5 and 1/3, and the immortal warlock was over halfway through level 5. The power thief was still approaching level 5 because hed given up his resources. Based on this experience level When the silver dragon died, the immortal warlock and soul warlock would instantly hit level 6! Some talents were like two totally different heroes before and after level 6. The immortal warlock and soul warlock were obviously such talents. On the other hand, it didnt matter as much for the power thief, since its first three skills were all control skills. Whether or not he had his ultimate move was of little impact, and that was especially the case for Brother Cai, who was primarily a support player. So This round in the mid-lane was about to explode! INs berserker thief locked onto the power thief. He was delighted and said, Go! Brother Cai didnt panic at all. He calmly sent out a ground stab. After being locked in by the berserker thief, he had no choice but to get pulled over. Based on his defense, he would be able to resist enemy fire for at least two seconds. What did two seconds mean? System AnnouncementCC FTW.Close killed the Silver Dragon (low level). As soon as the announcement came out, their experience arrived. IN didnt have vision over there and hadnt even known that Close was killing the dragon. When they heard this system announcement, the three of them felt a chill go down their backs. INs top-laner exclaimed, F*ck! Hed still been on guard against getting killed by Close under his own tower and hadnt expected that Close would go over to kill the dragon! They all watched as a faint golden light enveloped the immortal warlock and soul warlock, and they both rose up to level 6. Wei Xiao: Little Ning. Ning Zhehan: Got it! In just two short seconds, nobody even had time to blink their eyes. The soul warlock attached to the immortal warlock! The two of them started up the connecting clouds combo at the same time. The overlapping clouds in the mid-lane paved steps across the river, constantly stacking upwards, and constantly climbing. After their field of vision was pulled high up, all they heard was a bang! Landing on clouds was perfectly connected. These ethereal clouds seemed to gain substance, turning into fog that dropped layer by layer, transforming into sharp blades as they fell! Thousand layers of clouds was also called thousand layers of snow. Because the falling clouds were more like cold snow. They were tightly condensed together and had the momentum to freeze the earth! Two sets of thousand layers of clouds! There were really two sets! Their range overlapped, and the damage doubled. This was like an explosion had taken place on the spot! After being suppressed for so long, having endured for so long, and having waited for so long, the audience stood up and applauded desperately. What a show, it was too cool! The thousand layers of clouds with the holographic projection made the entire venue feel chilly. It was a hot summer and their blood was boiling, but these fascinating special effects made everyone feel a refreshing sense of joy! xiin: well apparently i mis-scheduled a day. >_> lets all pretend that 234 came out when it was supposed to Chapter 235: Canyon flower butterfly~ Under such explosive damage, the elemental shaman who didnt yet have a resurrection totem was really unable to protect his teammates. Otees spirit mage had reacted quickly enough. He had movement skills so he tried to escape the attack range of these two thousand layers of clouds. However Brother Cai had already set out a roadblock. Otee was already in a panic, so how could he have noticed the power thiefs ground stab? He stepped on it and was pulled back by Brother Cai after triggering the trap. Originally, hed been just at the edge of the thousand layers of clouds and may have been able to survive with a sliver of health leftover. But now he was pulled straight into the core damage zone, and the double layers of DPS landed on Otees head, beating him silly. Their health plummeted, and they instantly fell into a seriously injured state. After that, their screens went dark, and the system announcements rang out. FTW.Quiet killed IN.Otee. Congratulations to FTW.Silvery for a double kill. Brother Cai Oh, not only did Brother Cai not die, he even got three assists. Originally, IN had thought that they would definitely be able to get three kills in this mid-lane battle and fatten themselves up explosively. Unexpectedly, they hadnt even taken any kills when the other teams ultimate move smacked them in the face, dealing heavy damage to them instead. What was more suffocating was that the shadow thief returned to the top lane after taking the silver dragon and used his light arcs to forcibly bypass the tower, sending away INs top laner swearing as he returned to the fountain. The audience was completely immersed in this joy. It was their home game to start with, and now the cheering rang out endlessly. The headphones that the contestants wore had a noise reduction and soundproofing function, and such sounds generally couldnt be heard clearly. However, these cheers were too loud, and the audience was too enthusiastic. The bit of sound that flowed into their headsets made the IN teams hands sweat. They could hear the cheering even through their noise cancelling headphones. What was the scene like? This was what teams feared most when they fought away games. It would undoubtedly aggravate their sense of psychological pressure. If the players from IN could hear it, then FTW could naturally hear it too. The fans cheered excitedly, filling the three little ones with fighting spirit and making them wish they could fight another round. Only Wei Xiaos heart felt a little astringent. Three years, three full years. As the only player from the China competition zone on the stage in the finals, Close had to face such a scene. In a strange competition zone, on a lonely stageCC He had killed others, but no one had cheered for him. Only when people killed him had the entire audience screamed. Fortunately, there were many people by Closes side this year. He had teammates, had someone who loved him, had someone he loved, countless fans, and the whole China competition zone. This year, it definitely wouldnt be Close standing alone on the global stage! Wei Xiao breathed in, then said to Ning Zhehan, Once. Just now, hed killed Otee once. Hed said he would kill him 15 times. He would do what hed said. Ning Zhehans hands were all warmed up. Come here, Brother Xiao! The soul warlock was too magical. He always had the feeling that brushing out a thousand layers of clouds was easier than usual with his attachment. It wasnt Ning Zhehans illusion. It really was easier. If there was a slight flaw, Wei Xiao could make up for it, and if there were any kinks, the soul warlock could smooth it out. The audience only saw the dazzling thousand layers of clouds, but they didnt notice the really terrifying things that the soul warlock could do. CCA real support could help their teammates play out 200% of their strength! After reaching level 6, Brother Cai retired triumphantly and became a well-behaved toolman. Ganking? No need, he just needed to provide vision. Clearing the jungle? He didnt dare, he didnt dare. He would just wait until the soul warlock was attached before going near the jungle zone. Support the marksman to help him develop? It wasnt necessary. The soul warlock just needed to use attachment, and the warlocks support was much more stable than his. Brother Cai became a toolman, and Wei Xiao became a butterfly. CCA butterfly that flew all over the canyon. The audience went crazy with laughter when the commentator carelessly used this adjective. It was too graphic and vivid. It was on point. Just looking at this little lunatics rhythm was dizzying enough, okay! The jungle zone had only just refreshed when the soul warlock attached to the power thief, sweeping through fiercely and clearing out all the farm. Then, he turned and went straight to the mid-lane! Wei Xiao didnt hide when he arrived. He stopped just short of telling Otee directly that Laozi was there to kill him. Otee was using the spirit mage. The spirit mage was very flexible, and he could practically travel across half the map when he used his combo. But no matter how flexible he was, he couldnt stop himself from being surrounded and suppressed by two immortal warlocks. He might be able to hide from one thousand layers of clouds, but how was he supposed to hide from two? Whats more, these two people were able to stagger their spells! Although the soul warlock could use the skills of the talent it was attached to, the direction of the skill would depend on the direction that the attached hero faced. This actually made it a little difficult to operate when teammates had some directional skills. It was especially the case when it came to stacking up marks to brush out tricks. The first time when they brushed out thousand layers of clouds at the same time, Otees scalp was numb, but he was also quickly thinking up countermeasures. INs support: Avoid fighting. As long as the thousand layers of clouds falls down, the first thing you should do is leave the attack range of the skill! Otee: Got it. This was a very good on-the-spot response. Although they werent familiar enough with the soul warlock, they werent completely unfamiliar with it. They couldnt use it well, but they could still try and be prepared for its attacks. Otee had also been convinced that they couldnt stagger the casting of the spells. Coupled with the high flexibility of the spirit mage, he could slip away first whenever he saw Ning Zhehan start stacking up for a thousand layers of clouds. Although he would lose some of his lane soldiers and his defense tower might get worn down, it was still better than sending himself up to be killed. When he was dead, he wouldnt be able to maintain his soldier lane and defense tower either! Otee knew enough about the immortal warlock and it wasnt difficult for him to avoid the thousand layers of clouds, but Who wouldve thought that when the first thousand layers of clouds ended, the place where Ning Zhehan landed would be just at the edge of the outer tower, and another thousand layers of clouds would follow? Otee had already used up all his skills and could only run Like hell could he run! The soul warlock had the highest farm in the game, and his equipment was better than Ning Zhehans. When he released his damage, Otee would be dead again. The thousand layers of clouds were really flashy, and it made the audience at the scene eager, their hands itching to play. The fans in the live broadcast studio were more direct. They turned on their computers for a game and soon came back wailing, What the hell, and theyre even doing thousand layers of clouds? Who can tell me how the soul warlock directs its skills?! Fortunately, I didnt play a ranked game. Otherwise, Id have been suspended from the game with these crappy results! Wake up, fellow brother, dont lose your head from watching and send out heads! Wei Xiaos soul warlock was known as the canyon flower butterfly, while an ordinary players soul warlock was disdained by thousands. The gap was so wide that it was really humbling. INs mid-lane collapsed completely. After Otee died four times, it was like INs center of gravity was set in the middle lane. Their support and jungle practically settled down in the bushes in the mid-lane. They had lost sight of all else and just wanted to kill Wei Xiao once. No matter how much they sacrificed, they would make a profit as long as they could kill him! Unfortunately, while they had acted impulsively, Wei Xiao was very calm. Fifteen kills, there was no rush. 3:0 and the head count. He couldnt fall short on either one. INs jungler and support stalked the mid-lane, thinking that Wei Xiao would come to kill Otee, but Wei Xiao had already gone to the bottom lane. INs bottom lane had been constantly trying to develop. Although he wasnt suppressed by Yue Wenle, his development had constantly been very thrilling. In the current situation, the top, mid, and jungler areas had all collapsed. If he didnt remain stable, then they would have no way to fight. The gun launcher was a talent that could hold up against the storm hunter. INs marksman tried his best to snatch up farm, thinking that they could retaliate in team fights in the later stages. Unfortunately, the butterfly came. Yue Wenle had been waiting for a long time. Im going. Wei Xiao clicked on attachment. Yeah. At this time, the gun launcher still didnt know that the soul warlock had come to the bottom lane. Three of the players from IN were still lying in ambush in the mid-lane waiting for Ning Zhehan and Wei Xiao to show up. Who couldve known The gun launcher: Damn it! After cursing, he moved as far as he could and hid behind his tower. Unfortunately, raindrops had already covered most of the bottom lane like scattered stars. Having seen Wei Xiaos thousand layers of clouds, the gun launcher didnt doubt that he could step on raindrops! Besides, stepping on raindrops was a bit easier to operate than a thousand layers of clouds. As long as Yue Wenle could cover the area with rain, then the two of them could advance together. Even if the soul warlocks basic attack didnt deal as much damage as the storm hunter, the damage from the skill alone was enough to make him suffer. They were all c-positions, and they were all squishy. Who could bear this kind of damage! By the time the three people from IN who were stalking the mid-lane realized that the bottom lane was on fire and wanted to teleport over, the power thief sent out a ground stab. Otee: ! Did they really think that the canyon only held Little Lunatic Wei? The jungler king vegetable that had been used and abandoned after level six was very angry. The light for transmission hadnt yet landed. The three from IN didnt succeed in leaving, but Close had already arrived one step ahead of them and appeared at Bai Cais side. FTWs double thief, give it a try. Had they ever seen a thousand layers of clouds paired with nine light arcs? A wave of special effects broke out in the middle lane, and the two people in the bottom lane stepped on raindrops like the stars in the sky were upside down! The director was a little overwhelmed. The holographic projection could only focus on one field of vision at a time, but these two had started brushing out their ultimate moves at the same time! Which side should they show! Finally, they focused on the mid-lane. The thousand layers of clouds that looked like falling snow coupled with the domineering light arcs really was like something from a dream. If they didnt ensure that everyone could see enough of it, then the audience would stir up trouble. Though, they were already kicking up a fuss now. Bottom lane, bottom lane! I want to see the raindrops fly! Yue Wenles skin is really good looking. The stars are shining, its too beautiful! Of course, there were also those who were obsessed with the mid-lane. Ill fight with anyone who dares to switch the perspective. The great demon king is so handsome, I want to marry him, I want to marry him every day! Speaking of which, Wei Xiao has never used attachment on Close in this game Close cleared out the top lane on his own. Wei Xiao didnt need to go there at all. But I really want to see double light arcs! Wait a minute, can we look forward to seeing double nine light arcs? Im not demanding a double nine, but one eight and one nine shouldnt be a problem! Calm down, calm down, the effectiveness of the soul warlocks skills have been halved. Wei Xiaos nine light arcs arent that stable, so at most itll be a nine and a seven? I dont care! As long as its double light arcs! We saw two nine light arcs from opposing teams in the casual player competition, but weve really never seen double light arcs from the same team. platform. Although IN players arent human, fellow brother sisters, I feel a bit of heartache for them right now INs tragedy was really tragic; in fact, it was extremely tragic. It was likely that IN had never dreamed that their first game in the globals would play out like this. It wasnt a big deal to lose, and theyd thought about losing 3:0. But theyd never expected that they would be hammered so badly like grandsons! They lost face in front of the whole world. Otee regretted it so much his heart and intestines were splitting apart! Two lanes blew up at the same time. IN was wiped out! The players from IN felt sweat run down their backs as they looked at their dark screens. Those who hadnt experienced it personally really didnt know what it was like. The battle of freedom had turned out like this This was like the most absurd type of nightmare. Was it over? Not yet. The game had only been going on for fifteen minutes, and they had to endure even after their mentality had collapsed. There was no suspense in the match. The audiences focus shifted from winning to losing to the shadow thief and the soul warlock. Q Cub! Im begging you! Quickly use attachment on your captain! The great demon king needs you, little butterfly, dont fly around everywhere. Quickly take a look at Close. Wei Xiao certainly didnt know what the audience in the scrolling comments or the arena were saying. He didnt plan to simply win the game, and he wasnt just waiting to see how many times he could kill Otee. He had to use this difficult-to-come-by opportunity to adapt! Adapt to Ning Zhehan, Yue Wenle, and Bai Cai. On the contrary, there was no hurry with the captain. He didnt need to get used to Closes shadow thief, because he already was familiar. FTW pushed forward the whole way and IN was forced to fight team battles. In the last wave of 5v5 fighting Lu Feng: Come here. Wei Xiaos lips raised up slightly. He pressed on his ultimate move and selected the shadow thief. When the faint light and shadow covered the shadowed thief with his scarlet cloak, the live audience and the audience in the live broadcast all exploded at the same time. Its coming, its coming! Double light arcs! Damn it! FTWs inherited shadow thief! Hurry, hurry, Ive already turned on my screen recording! They lived up to these expectations, this trust. Shadow attack, backstab, side attack. These two sets of skills went out like floating clouds and flowing water, as though the operations were all handled by the same person! They rose up and fell in synchronized movements. The stacking marks couldnt be differentiated, and their damage was unceasingly within their control. They entered as shadows, but came out with rising light arcs! When the double light arcs lit up the canyon, it left everyone stunned. They couldnt tell it apart. They couldnt tell it apart at all. How many arcs were there? Exactly what kind of damage had been dealt? At this moment, the audience who were watching the scene only had these words in their mindCC Like the scorching sun shining in the sky, giving off infinite glory. FTW! Badass! Chapter 236: Problem? Everyone in IN turned pale from the damage dealt by this explosion of light arcs. There had already been a farm gap of over 12,000 between their team and FTW. Even Bai Cai, who was the worst in terms of development, had a higher farm than any of them did. They had five DPS positions, and five talents who could show off to the heavens. Let alone the double light arcs, even the immortal warlock and storm hunters damage was already more than they could bear. The elemental shaman urgently tossed out a resurrection totem, giving it to Otee. As a spirit mage who had the most movement skills, Otee was the most likely to survive. Although he might not be able to guard their base even if he lived, the elemental shaman was still thinking of leaving a glimmer of hope. This was the type of competitive spirit that was unwilling to give up until the very last minute. It was commendable. Unfortunately Otees mentality had collapsed completely, and he was left stunned for a moment after he stood back up. It was already too late by the time he heard the elemental shamans shout. The soul warlock jumped down from the shadow thief and hit him accurately with a soul blade. At almost the same time, the shadow thiefs figure flickered, and his blood blade stabbed into the spirit mages belly, strengthening its basic attack into a critical hit. This hit dealt a terrifying 2800 points of damage and killed the spirit mage on the spot. There was the double shadow thief when attached together, and when they were split up, there was still a godly level of tacit understanding. The old fans whod followed Close for four years had eyes full of tears! The lone wolf from the Team of Gods, the lone king of FTW, finally had someone beside him! There was finally someone who could match up perfectly with the great demon king! IN got aced. The five people from FTW pushed down the mid-lane, taking turns to protect the lane soldiers, blasting apart the crystal in the shortest possible time! Victory! Victory belonged to FTW! The audience applauded and cheered like the game had already ended with a 3:0 score. It was just a single match, and it was just one battle of the freedom matches. But the audience was already fully satisfied with what they saw. In just twenty minutes, going from worry, to surprise, to happy screaming Wei Xiao had fulfilled his promise perfectly. The director showed a replay of the interview with Wei Xiao from prior to the game. Dressed in a dark black team uniform, the youths skin color was pale, yet glowing. His eyes were slightly curved upwards, and his small tiger teeth looked mischievous. His voice was crisp and pleasant, Theres a surprise for everyone. The audience: After that came laughter. There had really been a surprise, it was amazing and joyful. This brat was really amazing! The audience in the live broadcast saw it too. Thousands of girls screamed shrilly, all wanting to be Madame Wei, wanting to marry Wei Little Xiao, wanting to be his mama Yes, in just one short season, Wei Xiao had succeeded in winning over countless girlfriend fans, wife fans, mama fans, and husband fans! Thats right. In this matter, Wei Xiao had won over the great demon king. And nobody else would ever dare to call Close wife. There were too many highlights in this game. Everyone started discussing them one after another, and the most miraculous thing was the double light arcs in the finals. So how many light arcs were there? Was the system caught off guard and unable to make a judgment? Let me blindly guess that its one nine and one seven. The great demon kings nine is stable, and Little Xiaos seven is stable in soul warlock mode! Hey, it just so happens that I was born in 97. I can ship the 97 CP! Are those of us born in 98 not worthy of having the great and little demon king? Those from 99 weakly poking their heads out Little brother, go away. Its impossible for ten light arcs to appear in the team competition! Even the great demon king had made use of the special skill in the singles competition to brush out ten light arcs. Ten light arcs couldnt be obtained under the limitations of the team competition since there were no special skills! The fans kept arguing, and the commentators were also discussing this issue. Brother Mouth had sharp eyes. It should be one nine and one eight. Sister Qis surprise wasnt faked at all, This would actually count as a double nine. If the soul warlock wanted to brush out eight light arcs, then its actual operation would have to be at the nine light arc level. Although Wei Xiao could brush out nine light arcs from time to time, he was still a little less consistent than Lu Feng. It wasnt that he couldnt do it, but that it was really something that required time to practice. Wei Xiao had played a full three years less than Lu Feng. Brushing out double nines was already pretty awesome. Looking at the whole China competition zone, oh, wait, all of Glory across the whole world, it was impossible to find two others from the same team who could do it. This unique set of double nine light arcs belonged to FTW, and it belonged to the China competition zone! The people off-stage were arguing endlessly, but the parties involved were very clear on what had happened. Wei Xiao was very clear on how many light arcs hed brushed, and Captain! He couldnt help calling out to Lu Feng as soon as he landed. Through the same headsets, the same team chat, the three little ones trembled. Oh my god, this sound was very sweet f*ck, they didnt dare to think about it. Brother Xiao couldnt be provoked! Bai Cai didnt know why Wei Xiao was acting up again, but he was really afraid that Glorys Mic Explosion King would explode completely. Cough Wei Xiao calmed down slightly. Lu Feng: Take down the towers. At this time, theyd just wiped out IN and hadnt yet pushed their way to their base. So, the soul warlock returned to the shadow thiefs side and quickly clicked on the tower along with him. In fact, he should be going with the storm hunter, but Wei Xiao was happy following Lu Feng. So what! He didnt dare, didnt dare. President Le didnt dare to feel anything about this. Wei Xiao wasnt actually acting up. He just felt a sense of sweetness and delight in his heart. That double light arc just now In fact, hed known very well how difficult it was to brush out nine light arcs with the soul warlock. His equipment lacked the attack speed needed, and it wasnt as easy to stack up general attacks. If he wanted to brush out nine light arcs, it wasnt a problem with his micro operations, but rather a limitation caused by the mechanics of the game. There wasnt any way to do it. However! Lu Feng had helped him stack up marks. Just like how Yan Jiang had used the soul warlocks skills to help support his marks, Lu Feng had done the same using his shadow thief. He was clearly the soul warlock, and he was clearly the support talent, but Lu Feng still managed to help him while stacking up marks for his own nine light arcs. If others were able to see the situation clearly, then they would be so shocked their chins might have fallen off. No wonder Lu Fengs nine light arcs happened whenever he wanted to! Hed always been able to use it with skill and ease! It had to be mentioned that when Yan Jiang helped Wei Xiao with his light arcs, his own soul warlock hadnt been brushing out light arcs at all. Lu Feng hadnt delayed his own light arcs, and hed also helped Wei Xiao with his. Wei Xiao was already acting very reserved and restrained by not shouting out Captain, I love you!, okay?! After the battle of freedom, the audience who always had endless ideas began to disparage the competition system again. Why did there have to be a full-game BP! They still wanted to see more of the nine light arcs! They also wanted to see the butterfly! And they wanted to see a thousand layers of clouds, stepping on raindrops, and double light arcs! The director in charge of the holographic projection: No more, no more, we cant afford it! Take the equipment into consideration, hey, it was about to explode! Although the effects were amazing, the fans were all cheered happily, the tickets were easy to sell, and the income was spilling in like crazy, but okay fine, they could continue with the special effects; it was fine even if their livers exploded! Amidst all this enthusiasm, the second game, which should have started immediately, was put on hold. The audience were all puzzled. It wasnt the semi-finals or the finals. They shouldnt have to take a break after each game, right? What was the situation Was there something wrong with the equipment? Something wrong with the network? Why were the judges going up on stage? The only thing that could be seen in the live broadcast studio were the backstage guests. Backstage guests were invited for each competition. First, they would give predictions for the competition prior to the game in order to mobilize the audiences emotions. Secondly, they could come out when there was a delay with the game, preventing any accidental gaps in the live broadcast by chatting and easing the atmosphere. Of course, the third thing they did was go over the game in order to maintain the flow of traffic. After being notified by the director, the guests started analyzing the battle of freedom that had just ended. They didnt know what had happened on the stage and could only start talking to stabilize the fans in the live broadcast studio. However, the fans mood wasnt that easy to stabilize. A perfectly good game had suddenly stopped; there had to be an explanation for what was going on. The audience in the scrolling comments were asking about it all over the place, eager to know what was happening at the scene. Reasonably speaking, equipment problems or network accidents wouldnt lead to them cutting directly to the backstage guests! The second game hadnt started. If it was due to the hardware, wouldnt it be better to give an interview of the players first? For a time, various conspiracy theories came out frequently, and all kinds of speculations popped out. There were even comments about internal discord in IN, and some even guessed that they were fighting. The fans in the live broadcast studio didnt know what was going on, but the audience at the scene was watching everything happen. The game had indeed been suspended, but it wasnt an equipment problem or network problem. It was that a player from IN had suddenly stood up and called over the referee. It was unknown what was said after that, but they saw Otee blushing and arguing with the referee. This What could have gone wrong with the battle of freedom just now? It was a live game and there couldnt have been any plug-ins used! Who was he making trouble with! Besides, what need was there to open up plug-ins for in the game just now? Although, this soul warlock was really like a plug-in! There was also a lot of discussion at the scene. The host came up to the stage and tried to appease the audience, but the audience at the scene wasnt like the audience in the live broadcast studio, and they wouldnt be appeased with just a few words. They all wanted to know what was going on. So, the host translated INs words. The host was a young woman with a soft voice, INs point is that FTW broke the rules in the previous match. The audience: Broke the rules? What rules did they violate? The host: Switching positions between the jungler and support With this explanation, the fans got it. Was this even f*cking possible?! If they couldnt afford to lose, then dont play. Dont disgust people like this! The reason that IN had provided was actually quite valid. The team competitions worked like this: Before each game, the coach would submit a list with the player configurations. For example, the list that Chen Feng submitted in the last game was: Top-laner Close, Jungler Quiet, Support White, Mid-laner Silvery, ADC Le. The players for each position were determined prior to the BP part of the game. After they entered the competition, they had to play the position theyd announced. If Ning Zhehan switched his mid-laner position with Yue Wenles ADC and took the marksman position while the other went to the mage position, they would theoretically be breaking the rules. The punishment for violating the rules was extremely serious. It ranged from replay (where the match was considered invalid, and there would be a rematch), to a direct loss. IN was really vicious, but they still insisted clearly, The soul warlock is a support position talent. Quiet registered for this match as a jungler, and their support and jungler positions dont follow the regulations! So, the referee had to come up on stage and give a verdict on this matter. The coaches went up too. Chen Fengs face was as heavy as still water, and FTW was burning with anger. Whether or not theyd violated the rules wasnt something that Otee could determine by moving his top and bottom lips! After understanding the situation, the referee spoke up, Glory doesnt define any talent into a position. Whether or not FTW has switched positions or not has to be judged based on the situation in the game. No matter what kind of talent it was, the competition committee wouldnt limit it to death. For example, the shadow thief was a jungler position, but there was nothing illegal about using it for the top lane. Although using a soul warlock to play jungler was somewhat incredible, it wasnt completely impossible. The important thing was whether or not the player in this position was actually playing jungler. Otee gritted his teeth, Then look at the data. The power thief broke the rules too. He was playing jungler the whole way! Whether or not he was playing as a jungler would depend on how hed controlled the jungle creeps! The referee: Wait a moment. There were voices of disdain from all directions when the audience learned about this situation. The ignorant fans in the live broadcast studio also understood what the situation was after the audience took out their cell phones and sent out a series of explanations in the scrolling comments. The originally chaotic live broadcast room suddenly became surprisingly unified. They were all scolding IN. Of course, there were some who were worried, He cant have really violated the rules, right In the last match, Quiet was really What could they say? This new tactic and routine had been a little strange. It wasnt unreasonable for Otee to make such a fuss about it. Theyd lost like crazy and couldnt swallow down their anger. They latched onto this point in order to dispute the win, and it was really a bit difficult to distinguish between who was right and who was wrong. Both the power thief and the soul warlock had the ability to fight in the jungle, and they were both in the jungle zones during the match. As for ganking people Both the support and jungler talents were the support type. It was difficult to say if it was a jungler type support or a jungler type ganker. If this game was judged to have violated the rules, then wouldnt FTWs invincible line-up be done for? The fans, whod originally been filled with enthusiasm, began to worry once again. How exactly would they decide? What data were they basing it on Could they convince the public? In particular, they were the hosts for the globals. If the ruling was unfair, then they would be flamed by the whole network abroad. After a long ten minutes, the game officials announced the results. The five talents that FTW had used in the last game were projected up onto the stage using the holographic projection equipment. Various statistics appeared beside them. The system wouldnt deceive people, and the data couldnt be faked. The soul warlocks jungle creep kill rate was as high as 80%! As soon as the data came out, the audience all breathed a sigh of relief. Damn Little Lunatic Wei, you really managed to do it! His jungle creep kill rate was similar to that of a lane player. 80% of the jungle creeps that died in FTWs jungle zone died from Wei Xiaos last hit. If that didnt make him a jungler, then all the junglers here could go home and start settling in for retirement! Ironically, the game officials also projected INs data. INs berserker thiefs jungle creep kill rate was only 60%. This comparison made the audiences scalps feel numbCC Otee, are you actually an undercover agent sent in by the China competition zone?! Chapter 237: Come on, come on, let me analyze the double light arcs for you editor: apricot This slap in the face came so quickly and ferociously that it likely caught everyone off guard. Looking at INs expressions, theyd really turned pale. Otee fell back into his chair, his eyes filled with incredulity. The live broadcast audience was already tearing into each other, especially on the foreign internet. Theyd already started scolding IN like dogs. On the other hand, the domestic audience didnt care. With this kind of mentally retarded behavior, it would be weird if they could win. FTWs win was really stable today. The game was still ongoing, but hot searches were already on the rise. The key words were shockingCCFTW violation. They clicked in to have a look, holy shit, like hell theyd committed any violations! Passers-by who werent part of the Glory circle were curious, You guys have position limitations in the official competition? We often change roads, doesnt that mean were all breaking the rules? Someone explained the situation, I thought that this rule had been abolished, but unexpectedly, its still like this Glory had been around for so many years. There were many piles of papers worth of information about the game competition system. Locking in the position of the players was an old rule. Although the players position was registered, there were no restrictions on tactics and playing methods. For example, had a toolman jungler whod given all his resources to the marksman switched positions? Of course he hadnt. The marksman was still primarily in the bottom lane, and just ended up with a bit more farm. As another example, in the later stages, when the jungler started going around ganking people, half of the jungle zone would be given to their own top lane. Did that count as switching positions? No. This rule system had originally been designed to target teams that played in an irregular fashion. For example, teams who took money to play fake games, choosing talents blindly or players who messed around in the arena due to personal conflicts between them and other players There had been all sorts of strange occurrences in the early days of the game, and the rule system had been cobbled together from all these bits and pieces. As the competition system matured, this rule had long been forgotten. No one would consider this rule seriously. There were even some coaches who were too lazy to fill out the registration form. But The regulations were still there, and they were still in force as long as they werent repealed. No one would say anything about a jungler giving up their jungle zone for a c-position, but it was strange if the jungle zone was given up to a support player. IN had lost messily and hated the soul warlock to death. Otee felt that the humiliation hed experienced had reached a peak, and he felt that FTWs routine was disgusting. Then he remembered the registration form. So, hed called over the referee. As FTWs opponent, IN hadnt had full vision in the game just now and they didnt know where Wei Xiao had been most of the time. Although the soul warlock was number one in farm in the match, Wei Xiao had a heap of kills and assists. Also, he couldve mooched a bit of farm from the lanes when he went there to gank, so it would be difficult for him to end up with a low amount of farm. High farm didnt mean that hed been controlling the jungle zone, and the power thiefs farm wasnt low, either. If Bai Cai had been clearing out the jungle zone resources, then their argument would have some validity. No matter how invalid and obscure the rule system was, it was still effective as long as it was in force! Otee didnt care about what happened later. It was already enough if they could rub off some of FTWs momentum! As a result Theyd never thought that Wei Xiao would be even more inhuman than they couldve possibly believed. Hed been ganking, killing, and had even had time to clear the jungle! And his kill rate for the jungle creeps was as high as 80%. How the f*ck was that even possible! Otee had dared to call for the referee because he was certain that this matter couldnt be cleared up. Having a jungle creep kill rate of less than 50% was the norm for toolman junglers, and having a kill rate of 60% as a jungler core was already considered good. What the hell was this 80%! There were roars of laughter from the audience after they saw this data. Otee just felt a chill run down his back. Hed tried to trap people, but hed ended up stepping into a deeper pit on his own. His face was pale as he sat in front of the camera, his mind blank. On FTWs side. Bai Cai: Making his own life difficult with self-inflicted suffering. This matter only left FTW feeling disgusted. Worried? What was there to be worried about? This so-called ambiguity didnt exist at all. Wei Xiao was a jungler, and his soul warlock had been in the c-position for the whole game. How could the butterfly flit around so happily without any money? Besides, who were they looking down on when they attempted to stir up such things? Were they looking down on Wei Xiaos jungler or looking down on Brother Cais support?! The White Cabbages support awareness was very strong. After following the mad dog-like Wei Little Xiao, he was able to eat only grass and still manage to squeeze out heals all day long. Did they think that hed eaten the jungler creeps just because of his high farm? They must be joking. He wouldnt eat them even if Wei Xiao gave them to him! Out of the immortal warlock, storm hunter, and shadow thief, which one of them didnt require farm? If there wasnt Bai Cai there eating dirt, then how would his teammates get the farm? Brother Vegetable felt like hed been insulted! Chinas number one support (self styled) felt greatly humiliated! Now, things were great. IN had wanted to mess with FTW and had failed, and now, they sent out another momentum building gift pack. Theyd originally already wanted to crush IN 3:0, and now their determination had been strengthened. Their little hearts, which had been slightly inflated from the battle of freedom, settled again in their chests. Little Ning, Yue Wenle, and even the salted fish vegetable were getting motivated. There was still a chance to live if the heavens were messing with you, but if you made trouble for yourself, there was really no saving yourself. IN had really tried their best to get themselves killed. This farce ended, and the battle continued. INs mentality had completely collapsed during the BP, and even they werent clear on what theyd done. The full-game BP very much tested their mentality. If their brains were confused, then really big problems could happen. In the second match, Wei Xiao took the immortal thief, and Lu Feng took the flying warrior. This was a guerrilla warfare line-up, and reasonably speaking, the other side should pick a top-lane hero that was good at protecting the lane and providing support. However, in the end, they took a berserker warrior FTW didnt plan to engage in team fights with them at all. Who were they planning to fight with by taking a talent that was strong at starting team fights?! In this game, IN was like a monkey that was getting played around with. They ran around, smashing into walls and had to remain on alert no matter where they went. It felt like there were immortal thieves and flying warriors waiting for them everywhere. Otee was using an ice mage. It had incredibly low mobility and was super squishy. Reasonably speaking, the ice mage was very effective against immortal thieves. As long as they used their control skills well, they could even counter kill their opponents. However Otee was unable to freeze Wei Xiao even once during the whole game. As long as the immortal thief showed himself, he would definitely die. The spirit mage that had died four times already in the previous game looked like it had performed well when compared with the ice mage that ended up dying eight times in the second match. It was a bloody avalanche of a collapse. Everyone could see that IN had no way to fight back. Players would be under huge mental pressure after losing two matches in a row. INs support, who had strong ability and good mentality, attempted to comfort his teammates. Unfortunately, Otee couldnt hear a word of what he said, no matter how much he spoke. After entering the canyon, he seemed to turn into a frightened bird as long as he saw the thief, and he couldnt play at all. In the third game, Otee took a zither warlock. This was IN attempting to take a circuitous route and heal their marksman. But Otee, while using a support-type healer mid-lane talent, was still able to die like a broken twig. In this match, Wei Xiao used the berserker thief. The berserker thiefs passive ability ensured that he was a group fight machine. With the first kill that Otee offered up on a platter, Wei Xiao, whod stacked up the berserker thiefs passive and entered an enraged state, played like hed entered no mans land. Each swing of the scythe he sent out landed accurately, and he just had to pull a player back towards him. FTWs DPS would land in a timely manner, hammering INs marksman until his head was covered in bumps. With their marksman dead, how would IN play in team fights without their DPS? They collapsed again and again. By the end, Otee, who clearly had a very strong survival and protection talent, had died a full ten times. Finally, the entire audience cheered when FTW took down the crystal! 3:0! Global top eight! FTW had won this first victory beautifully! When they looked at IN again, even those whod scolded them for being stupid felt a little distressed for them. It was a bit sad. Although Otees IQ was worrying, the melon seed eaters hadnt expected that he would drag the whole team down with him like this. So There was nothing to fear from god-like opponents, the scariest thing was pig-like teammates. What would happen to Otee after he returned to his own competition zone it was unclear. What was more embarrassing was the handshake after the game. When Otee stood in front of FTW and saw the hand that their mid-laner stretched out from the other side, he just felt like hed been stabbed in the back. He would be flamed to death if he didnt shake hands, but he would likely die from depression if he had to shake hands. INs support gave him a push. Otee awkwardly shook hands with Ning Zhehan. Little Ning had excellent self-restraint and even smiled slightly. Of course, he washed his hands fiercely afterwards, but that was later on. Sixteen into eight. FTW had successfully broken through, and the MVP was given to Wei Xiao. When the post-game interview came up, Chen Feng waved his hand. Go, go. This couldnt be stopped. The audience was waiting, and the fans would kick up a fuss if they didnt let him out. Wei Xiao comforted him, Dont worry, Brother Chen. I definitely wont say anything random. Chen Feng: Like hell do I believe you! Wei Xiao winked at Lu Feng from in front of the interview table. Lu Feng stared at him. The corner of Wei Xiaos lips curved, and he mouthed something. Brother Cai, who blocked this scene for him, could see everything clearly. Lu Fengs gaze shifted over. Brother Cai quickly bowed his head: I didnt see, I didnt see anything. I definitely didnt see this damn smooch that Wei Little Xiao sent out! The host was filled with joy and didnt have any intention of embarrassing Wei Xiao at all. They even blew out a whole basket of rainbow farts. The soul warlock from the first match, the immortal thief from the second match, and the berserker thief in the third match had all played beautifully. This was especially true for Wei Xiaos KDA, which was so beautiful that it made people doubt whether or not this was a professional game. When faced with a host like this who was so good at giving praise, Wei Xiao had to wait a long time before having the opportunity to speak. The host asked him, Is there anything you want to say to everyone? Wei Xiao finally managed to seize an opportunity, In fact, Im quite ashamed. The host: ??? Wei Xiao: The captain let me have this MVP. Im not worthy of it. The host was amused. You performed very well. You really surprised everyone in the first match. Oh, right, during that last wave that had the double light arcs with you and Close At this moment, the host didnt realize that theyd brought up the key point. Wei Xiao had waited for a long time, and his chance had finally arrived. So, he started talking. What did it mean to blow rainbow farts? The praise that the host had given earlier could only be considered a little bit of flattery at best. What came out of Wei Xiaos mouth when he opened it was a real rainbow fart. Come on, come on, let me analyze the double light arcs for you. In fact, its like this Three hundred words were omitted here. The FTW crowd behind the stage: Dont ask, if you ask, well, they regretted it! At first, the audience was still listening carefully. Later on F*ck, was this brat done yet?! The audience in the live broadcast studio were laughing themselves silly. Little Lunatic Weis talking speed is comparable to his hand speed. Too fast, too fast. My mind is filled with Close now. Cub, men cant be too fast! The host had conducted interviews for so many years and had seen both shy and restrained or bold and generous people, but theyd never seen such a bratty one who went wild and snatched away the hosts job! Um Wei Xiao brought up a topic on his own, Do you guys want to know the maximum number of light arcs that can be brushed out by a soul warlock attached to a shadow thief? The host: ! Wait a minute, who exactly was the host here? This depends on Wei Xiao smiled mysteriously, The connection I have with my captain. Oh, let me explain this connection. Its an upgraded version of tacit understanding. In short, it relies on how well the captain and I know each other The director was winking crazily at the host, and the host finally came back to their senses! Alright, alright, if this interview didnt end now, the next game would never start! As the team who was playing in the next game, L&P had already been waiting for so long that they couldve cooked an entire meal and let all the dishes go cold. Yuan Ze crossed his legs, then put them up on the coffee table. He stared at the screen. Do we even need to play? We can be done with it all just by watching him blather on like this. Chapter 238.1: What he wanted was for one plus one to equal at least four! Wei Xiao still hadnt finished expressing his thoughts when he had to step down from the stage. After he went back, he whispered quietly to Lu Feng, I still have a lot to say. Brother Cais mouth twitched: Arent you going to come out of the closet in front of the whole world if you keep talking! Lu Feng held his hand lightly in a way so no one could see. Talk when we get back. Wei Xiao: ! Lu Feng coaxed him using a very gentle tone, Tell only me. These three words made Wei Little Xiao fly up to heaven on the spot. The hair on his head trembled. Okay~ he lilted, his tone was sweet and crisp, like sweet milk chocolate. Brother Cai: I often suspect that I should just settle in under the table! There were three games a day for the sixteen into eight part of the competition. The second game had been FTW vs IN, and the third game was L&P against the JL competition zones champion team. Everyone from FTW stayed in the lounge to watch the game. At first, Wei Xiao had still been in high spirits, wanting to see L&Ps tactics. However, the team from the JL competition zone was really timid. They were clearly afraid of Yuan Ze and Gary, and they faced the battle of freedom with dignified expressions, acting like theyd seen a ghost as soon as they saw the shadow thief and death knight combination. The death knight in the top lane and the death knight that played jungler were like two different heroes in Teacher Yuans hands. How crappy he was during the casual game, was equal to how amazing he was during the proper game. Oh, calling it amazing was too subtle. He was f*cking ARROGANT, written in capital letters. It was like he had a sign over his head saying that he was the best in the world. Wei Xiao: If I was JLs top laner, I would definitely hammer him into exploding! Bandit Yuan was too arrogant. Wei Xiaos hands were itching to abuse him. Unfortunately, JLs top-laner didnt have the courage that Wei Xiao had. Forget about abusing Yuan Ze, he was basically pressed to the ground and being smeared around. L&P acted leisurely from the start. By the time Gary began to support the top lane like crazy, the entire L&P had become just like their team name, leaving only love and peace in the game. Love was the top-jungler linkage. Peace was the mid and bottom lanes in L&P. As for the other side? They were the oppositeCC Abuse and death. Wei Xiao felt that it was boring to watch. Based on this game, it was better to Captain~ Hm? Solo! Ever since Brother Cai learned of the relationship between the two, he could no longer bear to hear the word solo. He always felt that it wasnt pure and innocent, and it was no longer the same hot-blooded sport. Emm. In a sense, it was also a bit passionate, and it also occurred between men. Holy shit! Stop! What was a straight man like him thinking about these things for! Obviously, there was no room for them to solo in the lounge even if Wei Xiao wanted to play. Lu Feng: Not watching the game? Wei Xiao was very dismissive. Theres nothing to watch. Could Old Dog Yuan lose? If they lost, then he would laugh at Gary for a full year! Old G: ??? Why is it me! Lu Feng glanced at the time. Lets go. It really was meaningless to keep watching. It was a one-sided suppression game, and L&P hadnt even used 60% of their strength. They werent like FTW, who still needed to practice new tactics in the sixteen into eight game. L&Ps line-up and system was already mature. Why would they have to use the new talents? Werent the pre-existing 100 plus talents good? Any set of line-ups using those talents were already enough to beat their opponents up. It was still early by the time they returned back to the base. The timing for the global competition was very tight. They had games for sixteen into eight that day, and the following three days were filled with more of the same. There were a total of eight games packed into four days, and the top eight list would be released by the weekend. Oh, FTW had already been shortlisted, but they didnt know who their next opponent would be. Everyone was clear about the situation even without Chen Fengs reminder. The sixteen to eight was the easiest game to play. They would face nothing but hard battles after this. Eight into four, four into two, and the finals were all games where a bit of luck would be involved even if they put in 300% effort. Although the results of the draw for the top four was unclear, FTW couldnt just rely on luck. The eight teams that made it into the shortlist were traditionally put up against one of the top four. It meant that last years top four wouldnt be up against each other when their opponents were selected for the eight into four. Of course, if the top four stopped at the sixteen into eight, then it would be another story. However, who were the top four from last year? Y1, EVE, L&P, Pro. Would these four teams lose in the sixteen to eight? Impossible. So, FTW would face one of these four teams. As for who it was Unimportant. CCBecause any one of the four teams was a hard bone to chew. The results would be difficult to predict even with FTW trying their best. When faced with such a tense situation, the little ones wouldnt be willing to rest even when it hit two or three oclock in the morning, let alone when it was only ten in the evening. Dinner could be skipped, and all they wanted to do was improve themselves further during this limited time. Chen Feng didnt rush to go over the game replay and had them go train instead. Wei Xiao pulled Lu Feng along with him to solo, while the three little ones went to the international servers to solo queue. They used the same talents from the battle of freedom. Chen Feng strolled around the training room and felt very happy looking upon this scene. FTW might have performed amazingly tonight, and theyd shocked the whole world with their battle of freedom, but There were many practical problems. Laymen watched the excitement, while the experts examined the details. Chen Feng had already filled two pieces of paper with his summary, but Ning Zhehan, Yue Wenle, and the others could also sense their own shortcomings. Testing their new line-up during the sixteen to eighteen was crazy, but it was indeed effective. They really wouldnt have been able to see so many problems if they hadnt taken it out and used it. IN had been cautious on the surface even while they had been looking down on the enemy in their hearts. In particular, they had really looked down on Bai Cai, believing that his power thief was just decorative. They hadnt taken him seriously, so theyd ended up ganked by Wei Xiao and Bai Cai at the start of the game. This routine could only be used once. There was a global live broadcast, and everyone could have seen their game. They all now understood that Brother Cai wasnt messing around with his power thief. In that case, they wouldnt be able to trick their opponents so easily next time, no matter who they went up against. Whats more, who were they going to encounter in the next game? Yuan Ze and Gary? They could hammer Brother Vegetable until he went into seclusion. EVEs CC and Miller? Xie He could go from the mid-lane straight into the jungle zone and get a double kill. Pros Park Guizhi wasnt easy to provoke, either. Wei Xiaos jungler might be a bit more fierce, but he was more than enough when it came to abusing a vegetable. And there was no need to mention Y1. They might use a soul warlock themselves, but their jungler wouldnt be a support who switched roles halfway! They were all old pros. Wei Little Xiao and Bai Caicais little tricks were nothing but childs play in their eyes. So, the problems with the soul warlock had been exposed. It was too weak before level 6. How weak was it? Not only did Wei Xiao lack the power to even truss up a chicken, even the shadow thief and the immortal warlock had to develop sufficiently to obtain their ultimate moves. It was already pretty good if they didnt miss any of their lane soldiers; how could they also support the jungle zones? Forget it, forget it, that wasnt providing support, it was giving out a triple kill. The storm hunter was strong in the early stages, but an ADC couldnt provide support in the top-jungler zone so early in the game. Providing support across the map would affect many aspects of their development, and the gain wasnt worth the loss. So What should they do? How could they compensate for this problem? Chen Feng stopped by Bai Cais side and stared at his screen. Brother Cai was playing jungler with the power thief in the international server. His power thief had a national server badge, but Wei Xiao had been the one to get it for him. It wasnt worth much. Brother Cai could play somewhat effectively in a casual game, but this level of awareness and operations Yuan Ze could kill three of him with a single attack. Building up a jungler king in four or five days was impossible. The soul warlock system would break into shattered pieces if it was beaten into collapse before level six. Then, what should they do? Chen Feng was a bit worried. The players had come up with such a good system and played out such a good effect. The coaching team should help them improve the overall planning for the routine and help them refine it. Otherwise, what use were they? Not only was Chen Feng thinking about this, Wei Xiaos brain also hadnt stopped for a moment. He soloed with Lu Feng while mulling over todays game. What could be sensed by those on the court was quite different from those off the court. As the absolute core of this system, Wei Xiaos feelings were deeper than anyone elses. Although everyone was saying it was good and everyone was cheering and the audience had let it all get to their headsCC CCWei Xiao knew that he hadnt played out the desired effect. Double thousand layers of clouds, double stepping on raindrops, and double light arcs wasnt what he wanted. What he wanted was a bigger jump in improvement. Not just the effect of having flowers bloom wherever he went. What was the difference between the soul warlock and an ordinary jungler? It was all based on being able to gank, catch people, and fight for rhythm. Wei Xiao hoped that the whole team would take a considerable leap. It should be that the soul warlock gave more to his teammates, rather than a simple one plus one equals two. What he wanted was for one plus one to equal at least four! What did a small bit of improvement amount to? What he wanted was for the team to take on a whole new level of awareness. Just take a little more time. Even if it was just a month, it would be enough. Sigh Wei Xiao exhaled, suppressing this regret and paying attention to the present. No one would wait for you, and no one would give you more time. It was the same for everyone. The ability to grasp the present meant that they could control their future. The screen went dark. Wei Xiao had been stabbed to death by his boyfriend once again. Lu Feng looked at him. Continue? Wei Xiao: Continue! In fact, Lu Feng knew that Wei Xiao was playing absent-mindedly, and he knew that he was thinking things through. But it didnt matter. It was unknown when itd started, but solo between the two of them had become a way for them to relax and think. Their entire person became absorbed in the competition in the canyon, but it somehow also helped them think. Chapter 238.2: Creating a new Team of Gods! After Wei Xiao died over ten times in a row, Lu Feng looked at him. Do you want to eat watermelon? Wei Xiaos eyes lit up. Yes! Lu Feng pushed his chair back and got up. Wei Xiao got up quickly as well. Ill go with you. Lu Feng: Mm. Little Ning heard them and was just about to say, I Brother Cai elbowed him. Little Ning: Ouch! Brother Cai glared at him after the two of them left. What are you doing? Little Ning felt very aggrieved. I want to eat watermelon, too Brother Cai: Theres no more. Theres only one and its not even enough for Wei Little Xiao to eat. Little Ning: Oh Only after he continued playing his ranked games did the poor granny gray recall: Just one? The base was stocked up with several boxes of watermelons all year round. As everyone knew, Brother Xiao relied on watermelon to survive. If there was no watermelon in the base, then Brother Xiao would kick up a fuss. Brother Liu had to prepare this food even when they went abroad. How could there only be one left??? Besides, Brother Cai had been playing ranked games the whole time. How would he know that there was only one? Little Ning, who wanted to eat melon but wasnt able to, didnt realize that hed narrowly passed by a big melon of gossip. Wei Xiao really did go to eat watermelon. He also had a kiss with every bite. Lu Feng dug out watermelon seeds for him with a fork. Wei Xiaos heart felt as sweet as honey, but his mouth insisted on saying, Ill do it myself. Lu Feng fed him a bite. Is it sweet? Wei Xiao: Super sweet! Lu Feng leaned in and kissed him. It is very sweet. Wei Xiaos heart was pounding. There were no more thoughts of the soul warlock in his head as it was all filled with his boyfriend. Dont seduce me. Wei Xiao kept himself sober. I still want to solo. Lu Feng fed him another piece, 5v5 is a team game. This somewhat abrupt sentence left Wei Xiao stunned. Lu Feng continued, Dont take it all on yourself. Wei Xiao bit down on the watermelon, and his mouth filled with sweetness. This refreshing taste resonated on the tip of his tongue, helping him find enlightenment. Yeah The 5v5 game was a team game. The soul warlock was a talent that was born for the team. He Wei Xiao smiled and leaned over to kiss Lu Feng. I see! The hint of a smile also appeared at the corner of Lu Fengs lips. So, dont worry. Wei Xiao nodded hard. Yeah! Lu Feng: Losing the match is also okay. We dont only have the battle of freedom. Wei Xiao exhaled softly and said solemnly, Right! Wei Xiaos thinking had been stuck at a dead end before. The soul warlock system had been too effective, and it held too much potential. Strength would inevitably draw ones eye. What Wei Xiao was thinking about was how to lead his teammates to play to their fullest potential. But hed forgotten that it was a team game. His teammates relied on him, and he should also rely on his teammates. This so-called complementary potential wasnt something that could be created by one person alone. Wei Xiao could help Ning Zhehan brush out his thousand layers of clouds quicker. Ning Zhehan could also help Wei Xiao brush out his thousand layers of clouds more easily. Wei Xiao was only thinking about adding bonuses to Ning Zhehan, but he hadnt thought about how Ning Zhehan could help him! Only by pursuing mutual achievements could they be a team. The true potential of the soul warlock lay in unity. Not in how much one plus one could make. It was about harmony as a whole. Only in this way could they give full play to their absolute strength, without any upper limits! Infinite glory. Unlimited possibilities. FTWs future was promising! Wei Xiao could finally see things clearly. Lu Feng had unraveled the knot that had weighed down on him all night. He felt comfortable all over and wasnt able to sit still again. Captain! Hm? Its getting late. Why dont we Lu Feng put away the plate of watermelon. Training. Wei Xiao smiled like a fox. Solo in be Lu Feng: Shut up. There was no way to shut Wei Xiao up unless Lu Feng kissed him until he couldnt speak. There was no suspense about L&Ps win. Pro played the next day, and there was no suspense there either. EVE played on the third day. Xie He set the record for the fastest match in this years global competition. Their game ended in 22 minutes after their opponents suffered a bloody collapse in their mentality. At this point, the sixteen into eight ended, and the list for the top eight teams was released. Y1, FTW, L&P, Pro, EVE There wasnt much suspense there either. All the teams from the Team of Gods had been promoted. Next was entering the top four in the eight into four round. FTW had been going through special closed door training for the past three days. The fans were looking forward to the games every day. On one hand, they wanted to see the soul warlock go up onto the stage again, and on the other, they were afraid that Little Lunatic Wei would stumble when faced with the Team of Gods. On one hand, they wanted FTW to happily rush into the top four, but on the other hand, they were afraid that they would lose in the top eight. The top eight China had never been able to achieve such good results in three years. But they were unreconciled! They werent willing to let things just stop here! They wanted to be better, they wanted to be even better. As the champion team of the host competition zone, winning the world championship this year would be especially meaningful, and enough for them to go down in the history of Glory! Becoming gods through one battle, that was what was waiting for FTWs four little ones! The entire China competition zone was looking forward to defeating the Team of Gods from the past and creating a new Team of Gods! The competition committee continued acting inhumane. They were determined to leave peoples hearts hanging in their throats. The opponents for the eight into four would be determined by on-site lottery. How would they draw lots? Have the eight teams go up and draw lots? No According to their rules where the last years top four wouldnt meet each other in the eight into four round, the top four would draw their own opponents directly! Who FTW would go up against had already become the hottest topic over the whole internet. Hot searches went up one after another, and everyone nervously stalked the live broadcast room. Yes how could such an important thing not be broadcasted live? Representatives from the four teams would draw lots on the spot, the host would announce it on the spot, and the eight into four match chart would also be announced at the same time. The other four teams from the top eight were also at the scene, waiting for the results. Was FTW nervous? Not necessarily. This was a predestined result. Theyd already been mentally prepared for several days, and even Little Ning was calm. Getting Y1 would be fine. Or L&P. So what if it was EVE or Pro? They had to run into one of them eventually or even both of them. The top four, the semi-finals, the finals. To hell with being afraid! Just fight and be done with it! The first team to draw was Y1. Yan Jiang didnt go up. It was their jungler God Hai who went up onto the stage, greeted everyone, and accepted an interview. The host simply asked them who they wanted to draw the most. Hai opened his mouth and replied, It should be FTW. The camera cut to show FTW. Wei Xiao smiled and waved. He wasnt cowering at all. The live broadcast scrolling comments: No need, no need, Y1, we dont want to meet you! Little Lunatic, you might not be afraid, but your mama is afraid. Save me! Dont run into God Yan! I dont want us to run into God Kim, God Xie, or Old Bandit Yuan either, what should we do! If I have to choose f*ck, Laozi cant choose! Hai pulled out a card. The host looked at it, then smiled slightly, It seems that God Hai is going to be disappointed. It wasnt FTW. Hai smiled, Were looking forward to the next opportunity. The next to go up and draw was EVE. Xie He didnt go up, either. Their beautiful coach was the one to go up on stage. The live broadcast studio descended into a revelry for straight men as soon as the blonde beauty appeared. She had white skin, was beautiful and sexy, and was enough to make everyone envy EVEs players. The host also interviewed Coach Echo. Who does EVE want to play against? Echo spoke in French, Of course its FTW. FTW again! Were the top four teams all focused on FTW?! The camera swept over again, and Wei Xiao continued to wave in greeting. He even added a wink. CCLet alone panic, he was complacent and owning it! However, EVE didnt draw FTW. The audience couldnt relax, since Pro and L&P were up next. None of them were easy opponents. Especially since these two teams had history with FTW from back during the winter training camp. One of them had a top-jungler linkage that they couldnt beat. The other had a marksman daddy that they couldnt kill. To some extent, both of them were psychological shadows on FTW. If they had to choose one Half the fans compromised and said, Pro, then ying, what if God Ran makes a mistake and the Little Lunatic is able to bite Proud Flower Kim to death? Then FTW can win. The other half of the fans compromised in another direction, L&P, then. After all, theyre so familiar. Maybe our top-jungler can win against them It was a fifty-fifty chance. They could only keep worrying! The third team to go up and draw was L&P. This time, the results were basically determined. If they drew FTW, then their opponents would be L&P. if they didnt, then it would be Pro. Gary came up to represent L&P. Old G rubbed his hands. The host asked him the same question. Garys style was a bit strange, and he opened his mouth to share his beautiful Chinese. Id rather not pull FTW. The two teams before him had only wanted to draw FTW. Why did L&P not want to? The host asked about this curiously. Garys reasoning was very justifiable. It would be bad if the little lunatic kicked us out after we beat them. Well Everyone knew that L&P was living at the FTW base. Old G was quite self-aware. So, Gary reached in with his big hand and pulled out a card. The host was amused when she saw it. Old G: The huge FTW team emblem came into view, and the whole audience laughed. Alright then, the teams who wanted FTW didnt get them, and those who didnt want them got them! Chapter 239: Everyone working together! As the last team, Pro didnt have to draw a team. There was only one team left to be their opponents. The match list for the eight into four came out, fresh out of the oven, and the brightest highlight was undoubtedly the third game, L&P vs FTW! Old G was unable to smile anymore after getting this result. He looked gloomy and sad, as if FTW was a strong enemy who couldnt be defeated. This undoubtedly made the audience from China feel great. Some were complacent, FTWs pretty good. They made last years runner-up feel so worried. Although I dont think we have a high chance of winning, Im happy just seeing Old G look like this! Sigh, this is bad luck. If the Team of Gods encountered each other, then maybe we couldve grabbed a bargain and rushed into the top four. Unfortunately, the competition committee is inhuman and insists on letting the top four stay around until the end Theres no helping it. Theyre strong, and the strong are untouchable. There were some who were puzzled, Does God G have to go so far? If L&P plays against FTW, I might not dare to say that their win rate is 80%, but its at least 70%. How could there be such an absolute thing? FTW was super strong in the sixteen to eight! But that doesnt mean you can just step on other peoples prestige to increase your ambitions. Oh, even though thats us I think it might be mostly guilt? Whats there to be guilty about? Theyre just borrowing a place from FTW. They just have to pay rent and be done with it, its not like they have to give up the championship for them too! It must be because of Captain Yuan Many fans of the Team of Gods burst out into tears when these words came out. The director also purposely switched the camera over to show a close up of Old Gs face. He had thick features, but his eyes were a particularly clear blue and his eyelashes were very long. When he looked towards a corner beneath the stage, his expression seemed a little timid. Yuan Ze sat there. The fans who saw this scene, Right through the heart! So, this means Yuan Ze didnt want to go up against FTW, and now, Old G feels bad for the captains sake? Why does Old Dog Yuan not want to play against FTW? Oh man, like I said, Scum Man Yuan is actually the most soft-hearted one! Whats he being soft-hearted about? He doesnt want to be the one to eliminate Lulu! Many people really started shedding tears on the spot when they saw this scrolling comment. They might scold and curse or they may hate on them. But they still loved this Team of Gods who had once led the China competition zone in shocking the entire world. No one had a good time during that first year after the Team of Gods had split up. Of the three that had gone abroad, even Yuan Ze, a mixed blood who had lived in North America for many years, encountered obstacles everywhere and had a rough time. Not to mention Yan Jiang and Xie He who were in the European competition zone. Players who had been safe in their own home country who got labeled with the title of betrayer for going to a foreign country and losing favour at the same time. Nobody would bless their leaving. In front of them were strange and hostile teammates, while behind them were compatriots who shamelessly abused them and wanted them to die while abroad The old fans who were unable to let go of them were almost tortured into pieces that year. They cursed FTW, called the management trash, scolded fate for being unfair But they could only curse and scold. Close was having difficulty holding up at home, while they travelled alone abroad. That year had been the darkest year. The Team of Gods was like fallen stars, becoming insignificant rubble that almost sank to the bottom of the water. However, they were unwilling and unreconciled to being ordinary, and they didnt give in. The next year, they began to glow and heat up. Top four! Runner up! In just one season, they stood on the brightest stage again, thriving and glorious. Only Close, only their FTW, fell again and again. They went from being the top team in the world to the laughing stock of the China competition zone. Did the Team of Gods want to meet FTW in the globals? Yes. And no. They wanted to have another good fight. But they were also afraid of completely destroying their former home. Yuan Ze was the most promising player for the singles championship, but he had abstained. L&Ps senior management had criticized this and given Yuan Ze trouble over this many times. Later, Yuan Ze picked out Old G from the youth training camp, taught him to play jungler, taught him how to play thieves, and also taught him solo Only after Gary could participate in the single player competition did LP&P let Yuan Ze off the hook. From time to time, the post game interview for the globals would also include a question to Yuan Ze: Why not participate in the singles? Is it because of Close? Yuan Ze was not the type to speak the human language. He opened his mouth and started, Yeah The host: For the sake of old memories Without waiting for the rest of such words to come out, Yuan Zes arrogant and domineering reply came, Because I hate him, I hate this kind of favored genius the most. At the time, China had scolded Yuan Ze for a whole season because of this sentence. After that, L&P won the globals, and the fans wanted to throw tomatoes at their own computers. They were so angry! How did this scum deserve to win the championship! At the time, many people felt distressed for Close and distressed for FTW. The domestic fans were unprecedentedly united. And it was in that year that Close found Quiet. It was also that year that Mo Hui and Fu Li entered the professional arena. That year, there were signs of recovery for China The Yuan Ze who brought about bloody rain and storms, who was referred to as Old Bandit Yuan by thousands of people CCWas gentler and softer than anyone else. After the draw, it was unusually silent inside L&Ps van on the way back to the base. Yuan Ze sat on his own in the front row. His posture was still arrogant, and his long legs were stretched out. His elbows rested against the side of the window as his light gray eyes stared out into the traffic outside. Old G didnt say anything. No one made a single sound. The car was quiet, filled only with the sound of breathing. It wasnt far from the venue to the base. When they arrived, Yuan Ze got off first. Gary followed. Yuan Ze gave him a sidelong look. Cigarette? Gary hesitated. Seeing Yuan Ze frowning in impatience, Old G could only take out his box of cigarettes and lightly tip out a thin cigarette. In order to smoke less, Old G had recently started bringing ladies cigarettes with him! Yuan Ze made an expression of distaste. Feminine. Gary: He felt aggrieved but didnt dare say it! A ladies cigarette was still a cigarette. Yuan Ze took one, and Gary could only take out his lighter. Yuan Ze accepted it, and there was a snap as he lit it up. His slender fingers curled around the slim cigarette, while the five digits of his other hand played casually with the lighter. If this scene could be seen by his fans, there would be another round of shrill screams. Old G wanted to scream too. He wanted to tell him to be careful and avoid dropping his lighter onto the ground! Yuan Ze stared at him. Garys eyes were glued to the lighter. Yuan Ze tossed it at him. How promising. Old G caught it like it was a treasure and stopped just short of blowing on it. Yuan Ze spoke leisurely, Big brother will buy you another one if its broken. Oh, this had also been a gift from Yuan Ze to Gary. It was last years birthday present. Gary: Its a limited edition one; it cant be bought! Yuan Ze rolled his eyes at him. Old G knew that Yuan Ze was in a bad mood, but he didnt know how to coax people. Let alone when it was Yuan Ze Gary wouldnt be able to understand his captain in this lifetime. Yuan Ze smoked the ladies cigarette and felt that it just lacked flavour. Lets go. Gary: Ranking? Yuan Ze: To buy cigarettes. Gary: Compared with the depressed mood in L&P, FTW was actually better off. Even the most timid Little Ning was in good shape. Wei Xiao tilted his head to look at him, Arent you scared? Ning Zhehan spoke boldly, I am! Wei Xiao: Ning Zhehan then went to scratch at his hair. Just Im also not. This being scared, then not being scared. Ning Zhehan felt embarrassed, but he still had some ideas in his heart. I Im not thinking so much about it. Right now, winning any game is considered as having gained something! There was a smile in Wei Xiaos eyes. Thats great, Little Ning. Chen Feng heard this too. Hed originally been slightly nervous, but it turned into him being comforted by a cub. Tang Chen clapped his hands and shouted, Youre right! Every game they played was a game theyd gained. This mentality was really good. Just think about FTWs situation or even the situation for the entire China competition zone. It was already an unexpected achievement for them to be able to break through from sixteen to eight. It was something they wouldnt have dared think about last year. A new team, with two newcomers who were new to the arena. Even Bai Cai and Yue Wenle had never fought officially on the global stage. Their only experienced player was Lu Feng, and hed also switched positions. For the new FTW, for them to be able to reach this point meant that every step had been an upward battle! Ning Zhehan, who was most prone to mental collapse, had already survived the most painful period of growth. Even when faced with the Team of Gods, there wasnt anything to be afraid of. There was no need to be nervous for the fight for the top four. They had broken records with every step taken. They just had to fight without feeling pressured and see it through! Everyone in FTW was in excellent form, while their fellow brother teams were even more nervous. First, there was RR. Money almost sent himself into poverty inviting a Michelin level chef to the FTW base to prepare dinner. All the ingredients were imported by air. There were rare delicacies and exotic fruits. Except for things that hadnt been discovered yet, there was nothing that Money couldnt obtain. How much did it cost? Dont mention it. Mentioning it hurt Captain Mo. Everyone from RR came along. Money spoke past the pain, Theres good food and drink! In particular, he winked at his team members and gave an extremely obvious suggestion, Eat back the money that Laozi spent! Brother Cai was surprised. You said this was a show of support. Why are you eating more than we are! Money: Were helping you eat. What if you eat too much and get indigestion that affects you during the game? After saying that, he put the last piece of Wagyu beef into his own bowl. Bai Cai: Money, why dont you get lost and go back to your family and inherit the business? Why do you insist on living the hard life here! After dinner, the two teams played training matches for several hours. Moonlit also took Little Ning away for solo training. Money was sour. My familys Little Moon-moon is the real number one mage king in China! Even before Bai Cai could disdain him, Fu Li, whod just arrived, replied, Ha-ha. Money was immediately on alert against Fox Fu. What are you doing here! Fu Li had never gotten along smoothly with this prince, and he mocked him impolitely, In short, not acting like you, someone who only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun. Money: Fu Li went directly to the coaching team and plugged in a USB. The contents were loaded up, and the door to the coaching team room closed, no longer allowing anyone else in. Eurostar-star smiled like a fox. Captain Mo is here too. Mo Hui hated Fu Li, but he was very fond of Eurostar. I came with Little Moon. Eurostar blinked. Wheres Moonlit? Mo Hui raised his chin. Special training in the doubles room. Eurostar got it. He smiled slightly. Okay then, Captain Mo, you can keep playing. Im going to go and be busy. He purposely emphasized the word busy. Mo Hui: ??? Eurostar: Lele is waiting for me. Oh you all have special training goals. There was only Mo Hui As a jungler, what kind of special training could he do? Wouldnt he just be beaten up until his face was all bruised up by FTWs two jungler kings? Eurostar also went into the training room. Mo Hui only realized after the fact. Caicai, was Eurostar mocking me? Bai Cai: Mo Hui thought it over. F*ck! The foxs subordinates really are little foxes! Out of those who came to provide support, other than Mo Hui who had brought food and drink, everyone else was quite busy. Captain Fu went straight to the coaching team and gave a first class tactical revision course. Moonlit led little Ning around, testing fighting with everything from the immortal warlock to even the void mage. Eurostar and Yue Wenle could play around, too. One of them was timid, while the other was reckless. There were really things that they could learn from each other. From 3U, although Captain Asleep was also a useless jungler king Combining Cong Yi and Asleep made them super useful. 3U was also able to use the soul warlock system. Cong Yi had already mastered much of the soul warlock. Although he wasnt as much of an all-rounder as Wei Xiao, he had an awfully deep understanding of Asleeps talent pool. Asleep gave pointers to Brother Cai. Cong Yi directly attached himself to Brother Cai. Caicai was too busy to worry about anything else. Therefore Money became even more lonely. Even that vegetable stalk had abandoned him! FTW, who was going ahead at full steam, had their time filled to the brim every day. They strengthened the soul warlock line-up, the double thief line-up, Yue Wenles late stage marksmen, and Ning Zhehans assassin mage talents. Brother Cai The salted fish vegetable was even more bitter! He was a small support who sought to live a zen life. Why did he have to undergo double training with Brother Sleep and God Yi at the same time! Bai Caicai couldnt figure it out and went to talk to Brother Soy in the evening. Brother Soys tongue was lolling, its blue eyes open wide. It accosted him. Ao! Caicai looked at it. Brother Soy: Arooo! Brother Cai said suddenly, Brother Soy, how about I find you a wife? Brother Soy tilted his head. Brother Cai hugged it. Living as a single dog is really difficult! The entire China competition zone was very fired up about the battle for the top four. The fans were all clear about professional players game accounts. As long as they looked them up slightly, they would be able to see hints of what they were doing. This, coupled with the paparazzis candid shots, which showed Mo Hui going in and out of FTWs base the most often At first, everyone thought that it was because he had a good relationship with Lu Feng. They thought Money was hanging out for free food and board while cheering for the team. Later on Holy shit, Moon God is soloing with God Ning again! My Star-star has been training with Yue Lele for two hours! Let me say something scary Brother Cai is in a doubles game with God Yi Two supports playing doubles? The fans could feel goosebumps rise up on their skin! Many scripts were submitted to the Gossip Emperor. This mixture of random gossip was enough to really spark fireworks across the China competition zone. However, their Gossip Emperor was busy honing his skills. He didnt have time to read those short articles; he himself had already become the protagonist of many of them! And he was the always, always, always, always the shou! The gossip Emperor was suffering, but the gossip Emperor couldnt say it out loud. While they charged ahead at full steam, the great demon king remained cool and calm. Mo Hui would occasionally catch sight of Wei Little Xiao. He remarked, Close is really capable. He doesnt even know what tension and fear are in this life! Wei Xiao naturally praised his own captain for a while, but then he considered it again carefully and realized that his captains mood really didnt seem quite right Chapter 240: Wei Xiao spoke quietly. I heard it... helps relieve stress. How to put it? Closes mood was probably similar to his light arcs. Other than Little Xiao, others couldnt really sense it. Happy or unhappy. Nervous or tranquil. They were all the same. Even without mentioning Mo Hui, it was difficult for Chen Feng, whod been with him for so many years, to judge his emotional state. Only Wei Little Xiao could tease the great demon king until his eyes held a smile and also manage to notice that the great demon kings mood wasnt right. Wei Xiao had been very busy these past few days. Hed been busy with testing all kinds of attachment for the soul warlock, testing various ways to get used to things, and all kinds of methods in order to build up physical memory of operations. At this moment, he left behind all his training and slipped out of the training room to find Lu Feng in his study. As FTWs results grew better and better and as they played more and more games, there was also more and more club business to deal with. Even if there was a division of labor and cooperation amongst various departments, as the head, Lu Feng still had to keep a handle on everything and go over everything at least once. Closes energy levels werent like that of an ordinary person. This was a truth that Wei Little Xiao could attest to! Wei Xiao took a cup of watermelon juice with him and slipped in. Lu Feng lifted his gaze. Hm? Wei Xiao sat on the edge of the desk, casually set down the watermelon juice, and supported himself with one hand as he leaned towards him. President Lu, rest for a while? Lu Feng set down the documents in his hand and looked at him. What, tired of training? Wei Xiao was close enough that he could nuzzle in lightly and kiss him on the neck. Wei Xiao had come to coax him, but he ended up being coaxed until his legs were soft instead. He calmed his heart, then said, Captain, the eight into four game is tomorrow. As soon as he said this, Lu Fengs hand that was holding his waist paused slightly. This tiny gap was something that only the attentive and careful Wei Little Xiao could detect. Lu Feng replied, Mm. Wei Xiao came down from the desk and slipped into his arms, wrapping his own arms around Lu Fengs neck to look at him. Nervous? Lu Feng looked into his eyes. Whats there to be nervous about? Wei Xiao: Being afraid of losing Lu Feng rubbed the tip of his nose. Are you afraid? Wei Xiao lowered his eyelashes and didnt make a sound. Lu Fengs heart grew soft. Wei Xiao was never afraid in front of anyone else. He wasnt scared of the heavens or the earth, and he was even less afraid of the competition! But in actual fact, he was afraid. He was more scared than anyone else. If they couldnt win the championship Ning Zhehan, Yue Wenle, and Bai Cai would all have other chances. What about him? What about Close? What about FTW? What could they do with the terms of that ridiculous bet hanging over them? Wei Xiao couldnt afford to lose. Lu Feng knew what he was thinking. He spoke gently, Dont be scared, itll be fine. Wei Xiao had really come to coax his boyfriend, but his boyfriend was coaxing him instead. He even grew smug and wanted to take advantage. Lu Feng: Wei Xiao spoke quietly. I heard that making love helps relieve stress. Lu Feng held him down. Dont mess around. Wei Xiao wanted to mess around. Im under a lot of pressure now. I need to relieve it! Lu Feng exhaled deeply and stared at him. Wei Xiao: Okay, okay Aggrieved. Lu Feng shook his head helplessly and kissed him between his eyebrows. Wei Xiao was still thinking about what hed come for. He looked at him again. Captain, what about you? Lu Feng knew what Wei Xiao was asking. There was something off with his mood. He could hide it from everyone else, but he couldnt hide it from Little Xiao. But when it came to talking about it, he also didnt know what to say. Wei Xiao was clever and got right to the heart of the matter. Are you worried about Captain Yuan? He would only address Yuan Ze this way when he was being serious. Lu Feng: There was no need to say more. His expression was enough for Wei Xiao to understand. This understanding made him feel like his heart had been stuffed with a large marshmallow. It was sweet, but a little bitter. Such a good Close, such a gentle Close, how had Wei Xiao managed to encounter such a person? Hed even fallen in love with him and found a home in his heart. Hed taken over and wouldnt let go! Ever since hed come to FTW, Wei Xiao often felt both a sense of invincibility and luck. Wei Xiao whispered, Its alright, Teacher Yuan is very strong. Wei Xiao was able to guess most of Lu Fengs concerns. L&P vs FTW. Regardless of whether it was Yuan Ze or Lu Feng. There were similarities to be found. They were all worried about each other. Yuan Ze was sure that he could win. He didnt want to personally eliminate FTW and didnt want to be the one to defeat Close. No matter how many times he provoked him openly, no matter how much he seemed to look down on FTW, hed always been concerned internally. Why did he pay so much attention to Wei Xiao during winter training camp? Because he wanted Close to have teammates. He wanted FTW to be able to stand up again, and he wanted Close to find glory. But now He was going to personally suppress this rising sun, cut off their hope and ruin the achievements theyd made with their efforts so far. When he thought of these things, Yuan Zes heart felt very stifled. And Lu Feng was thinking that Yuan Ze didnt have it easy. It wasnt easy living alone in North America. It had been difficult for him to gain a foothold in L&P, and Yuan Ze had lost to Y1 last year. Hed been under great pressure from his entire competition zone. This time If L&P stopped at the top eight and went back to North America, Yuan Ze would be flamed to death. So, Lu Fengs mood was very complicated. Win? They had to win. Neither side could give in. But they also couldnt let it go. Wei Xiaos heart felt sour and sore. Yuan Ze isnt that fragile. Lu Feng replied, Mm. Really! Wei Xiao looked up at him. Hes probably afraid of beating you into tears! Lu Feng: It had to be said that Wei Xiao was very good at reading people. He twiddled his fingers and spoke words that werent far from Yuan Zes real thoughts. He must feel that hell definitely be able to win and that its cruel that he has to eliminate us. Maybe hes having difficulty bringing himself to do it. As he spoke, Wei Xiao got more fired up. That Old Bandit must be looking down on us in his heart! Lu Feng: Wei Xiao grew more and more energetic. He must feel that he has a 100% win rate and his position in the top four is stable. He must feel that he can beat us up and kick you down, that hes invincible and confident and no one in the world can His words were too amusing. It made Lu Fengs mouth unconsciously curve up. Wei Xiao stood up and stopped bothering Lu Feng. Captain, you continue working. Ill be back soon. Without waiting for Lu Feng to ask, he answered first, Im going to go find Yuan Ze! Then, he dropped fierce words of his own. If he dares to take it easy, Im going to scold him for a whole year! Hed arrived quickly, then left just as fast. But the suffocating feeling Lu Feng had been feeling over the past few days had cleared up after this visit from Wei Xiao. What was the point in thinking so much about it? It had been three years. Hadnt they been waiting for this moment? Wei Xiao really went to go and find Yuan Ze. He poked him on WeChat and the two of them started double queuing. Yuan Ze played carelessly, both lazily and sloppily. Wei Xiao disdained him. You cant be thinking that your eight into four is a guaranteed win. Yuan Ze felt uncomfortable in his heart, but the words from his mouth were still angry. When the time comes, dont get so angry you sweep us out the door. Wei Xiao: Ha, ha. Yuan Ze: Are you really going to vent your anger? Wei Xiao: Dream on! Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao snapped at him. Play well in the game. If you do badly, dont even think about stepping into FTW again in this lifetime. It wasnt that hed be kicked out if he won, but that hed be driven away if he didnt play well. Yuan Ze groped around the desk and couldnt find a cigarette. He could only use his fingers to type: Confidence is a good thing, but if you want to win Wei Xiao interrupted him. This isnt something you need to worry about. Yuan Ze: Wei Xiao was merciless as he spoke word by word. Yuan Ze, who are you looking down on? Am I, Wei Xiao, not worthy of having you put in the effort, or is my captain unworthy? Or is the whole FTW team not worthy of having your L&P fight seriously? Yuan Ze was choked half-dead by his words. Wei Xiao had even harsher words to deliver after that. Dont say that I didnt remind you, how old are you? Dont you have some understanding in your heart? Yuan Ze: Talk properly, why mention age! Wei Xiao had poked right to the heart of the matter. Youre already someone who is counting down the years for every year you play, yet you dont cherish every possible opportunity! Are you so sure you can play against my captain next season! Yuan Ze couldnt help but curse. Wei Xiao continued, You wanted to fight against my captain three years ago, right? Whats going on? Its been three years; have you become more and more of a coward? All his life, there had only been incidents of Yuan Ze flaming others. This had been the first time hed been rendered speechless by someone else. Wei Xiao shot out another sentence. I f*cking envy you. If I had an opponent like Close, Id wake up smiling every day! This sentence thoroughly woke Yuan Ze up. The feeling that had been weighing down on his heart and hadnt been able to be cleared by countless cigarettes was smoothed out with this sentence. Worry faded. Concern was superfluous. What broke through was long lost passion. Yeah. Yuan Ze had wanted to win against Lu Feng three years ago. Yuan Ze hadnt been satisfied with the Little Close from three years ago. Three years ago, hed wanted to defeat this talented and arrogant stinky brat. Later on Yuan Ze breathed lightly, his fingertips itching slightly. Envy me? Wei Xiao: Yeah! Yuan Zes lips curved. So you mean to say that, you think I cant do it? He was Wei Xiaos current opponent. Wei Xiao replied loudly, Yes, you cant! Chapter 241.1: It was like a bug! Yuan Ze was so angry that his liver hurt. Bring it. Wei Xiao: ? Yuan Zes fingertips didnt itch anymore. He pressed down on his mouse with great strength, Ill show you if big brother can do it or not. Wei Xiao: Yuan Ze sent Wei Xiao an invitation to a solo room. Wei Xiao went in, and his first sentence was: I have a boyfriend already. Yuan Ze was stunned, ? Wei Xiao: If you keep harassing me, Im going to go tell the captain! Yuan Ze: Who the hell was harassing you, ahhhhh! Oh, it was that talk about whether or not he could do it. But the little lunatic had clearly been the one who had started the topic! This little bastards ability to put the blame on his victim was really at the world champion level! These two sentences were enough to thoroughly provoke Yuan Ze once again. He didnt think twice about locking in the death knight. Wei Xiao thought about it for a while, then took the shadow thief. The Old Dog Yuan whod lost his head would definitely take the death knight. Although he would get hammered to bits if he used the shadow thief If he got hammered to bits, that was fine. How was he supposed to grow if he didnt get beat up? Yuan Ze saw that hed taken the shadow thief when they entered the loading screen. His first sentence was: Brat, youre really not afraid. Wei Xiao warmed up his fingers. Come on, lets see exactly how good Teacher Yuans death knight is when it comes to doing it. Yuan Zes sentence See if I cant f*ck you to death was all typed out, but he didnt dare send it. This kind of crude language was used often amongst brothers, and Yuan Ze had f*cked Kim Sung-hyun to death a countless number of times, but now He thought about how Wei Little Xiao was a man with a boyfriend. Then, he thought about Lulus possessiveness. Teacher Yuan, who sought to survive, calmed down. He deleted his words and changed them to: See if I cant screw you to death. F*ck, that wasnt right either! After waiting a long time with no reply, Wei Xiao grew elated. Is Teacher Yuan afraid? Yuan Ze: Dont ask, if you ask, then his liver exploded from anger! As the saying went, everything had its vanquisher. Old Dog Yuan had acted like a dog for half his life, but hed finally met his natural enemy and was being dealt with cleanly. Players went out with a full set of equipment in the new solo mode and just had to focus on their skills when they met their opponent. Wei Xiao was very interested, and he was very focused on the game. This was a very rare opportunity. If he could survive and stay alive under Scum Man Yuans death knight, then no one in all of Glory would be able to kill his shadow thief. Except for Close, but Close couldnt bear to kill him. Oh, except for when they were in bed where Wei Xiao Xiao was always hopeful that he could bear to kill him a bit. Cough Stop! Yuan Ze was also very serious. When faced with this familiar, yet strange shadow thief, it was difficult for him not to play seriously. When the shadow thief first went live three years ago, FTW had quickly discovered that the upper limit for this talent was very high. Talents with high upper limits were greatly valued in the professional arena. The club would definitely develop and train this talent. As a new jungler layer, Close naturally had to practice it. He trained with it in ranked games, in training matches, and was even more focused on it during solo. Yuan Ze had always been very concerned about this little teammate and was afraid that he had depression, so he often teased him. How about having big brother accompany you to solo? Close: Yuan Ze was direct and righteous. Im two years older than you, whats wrong with calling myself big brother! Close frowned and stared at the screen. Yuan Ze called him names in his heart like Little bastard whos too arrogant to place importance on anyone, but his mouth said, Come on, come on, Big Brother Yuan will carry you. Yuan Ze had just seated himself when Close sent over an invitation to a solo room. That bit of emotional upset dissipated instantly. After he clicked on accept, he continued complaining in his heart. What an awkward little brat. And then that little brat almost beat him up until his head exploded! In a sense, Yuan Ze really didnt like Close. He was a genius. A genius who worked harder than ordinary people and didnt leave them with any way to keep living! Yuan Ze sucked in a breath. These light arcs is the upper limit so high? Eight light arcs? When other peoples light arcs stuck at six or seven Close finally replied to him. It can be even higher. Yuan Ze raised his eyebrows. Nine? Thats too exaggerated. Close invited him again. Ill give it a try. Yuan Ze: What happened to Big Brother Yuan carrying him? This was him f*cking using big brother as a sandbag! Yuan Ze started playing seriously. He hadnt yet reached the point where he would be beaten by Little Lulu, whod just started with the shadow thief and hadnt yet accumulated enough experience to become the great demon king. After getting even, Teacher Yuan was elated and felt that his blades hadnt dulled with age. He hadnt yet gotten slapped to death by the waves that came after him. Close: Again. Yuan Ze was very willing to abuse his little brother. Bring it! They continued soloing and three hours passed before they knew it. Yuan Ze stretched and was just about to say: Lets go to dinner? Close sent over yet another invitation. Yuan Ze: Wasnt he hungry! Close wasnt hungry, so Yuan Ze was even less hungry. How could Yuan Ze lose to his younger brother? Another three hours later Yuan Ze: Hey Close just looked at him. Tired? That light and floating tone (in fact, hed always been like that), that arrogant appearance (which had also always remained the same), this expression that looked down on a fellow brother which angered him to death (this had also always been like that) forget it, in any case, Yuan Ze always felt that Close was provoking him! Teacher Yuan didnt need to write a draft for his boasts. You may not know but I once fought against the whole world on my own and soloed for seven times seven, forty nine hours straight, got it! Close: Oh. Yuan Ze slanted a glance at him. Dont believe me? Close: I believe you. Yuan Ze: Couldnt you just f*cking be surprised for a moment? Then, Teacher Yuan finally saw this youth, who had facial paralysis, loosen his expression. It wasnt an expression of surprise, but he smiled slightly and finally looked like a 17 year old youth. Close said, Thats good. Yuan Ze was stunned. Close continued, Forty nine hours should be enough. Yuan Ze: ??? Forty nine hours was impossible. Old Dog Yuan was about to become an Old Dead Dog twenty four hours later. Kim Sung-hyun woke up after going to sleep and came over to check in on them. You guys are up so early. Yuan Ze had already lost half his life. Morning Like hell He didnt even have the strength left to swear. Kim Sung-hyun looked at their training time and was shocked. You two have been soloing until now? Yuan Ze wanted to vent more anger than he had the energy for. And weve been using the same talents. He wondered if he would end up feeling physiologically disgusted with the death knight in the future. In the last one or two hours, hed been playing the death knight brainlessly, through pure mechanical operation. His hands had been moving faster than his brain. Kim Sung-hyun looked at Lu Feng over his cup of milk. This combo He hadnt yet finished his words when he almost dropped his cup of milk to the ground. Yuan Ze was equally shocked. He stopped moving and forgot all of his operations. The death knight stood where it was and looked at the light arcs that covered half the canyon. The two of them spoke in unison. Nine arcs? Close breathed out softly and relaxed the grip hed had on his mouse for a whole day and night. Nine light arcs can really be done. Yuan Ze: Kim Sung-hyun: The look that these two big brothers had in their eyes when they looked at this newbie could only be described as thrilled! Theyd seen those who were inhuman; for example, everyone in the Team of Gods were considered inhuman. But it was really the first time that they, who were inhuman, had seen someone be inhuman to this extent! FTW naturally held a meeting and studied such an earth shaking event for a long time. The data that the data analysts came up with was also very earth shaking. The damage from the light arcs would continue to double. The eight light arcs dealt twice as much damage as seven light arcs, and the nine light arcs dealt twice as much as the eight light arcs. When it came to this amount of damage, the player could deal out huge DPS even if they were one piece of fully completed gear short. Of course, if the farm difference was too much, then there would be a problem of breaking through the other partys defense, but based on the Team of Gods advantages, would they let Close have the lowest farm in the arena? Impossible! As long as the team had advantages, then the shadow thief would be like a nuclear bomb, brushing out light arcs and leaving behind mushroom clouds everywhere! Even if their opponents were only at the edges of it, even if five people shared the damage amongst themselves, or even if they moved and retreated, it wouldnt work The damage dealt was too shocking, and the range was too wide It was like a bug! Later on, the game developers did nerf the shadow thief. Unfortunately, nerfing other peoples shadow thief had little impact on Close. The difficulty of brushing out light arcs increased. It was like a dream for ordinary people to brush out seven light arcs, and professional players had to rely on luck to brush out eight, but Clos was still able to brush out nine. Many people werent satisfied with this, but Yuan Ze was really f*cking convinced. Looking around the whole world, there were only a few people who had Closes level of talent. Players who could barely compare with him in terms of talent would lose to him when it came to effort. How did that saying go? There was no need to be afraid of those who were smarter than you, but there was reason to be afraid of those who were both smarter and hard-working than you. In that case, there was really no way around it. So that was why Yuan Ze hated Close! Especially after his solo win rate went from ten wins and eight losses to an even split, then four wins and six losses. Yuan Ze hated Lulu even more! That was three years ago. Memories from the past rose to the forefront of his mind, as clear as if it had only been yesterday. At the time, Yuan Zes words had been: If i was the top-laner on the opposite side, I wouldve pressed you down to death a long time ago! Close: Oh. Yuan Ze sighed. Unfortunately, the only person who can defeat you is your teammate. Close: Mm. Yuan Ze: F*ck, hed gone on for a long time, yet it seemed like hed been looked down on again! Later on, they had really separated and really werent teammates any longer. They really became opponents, but he couldnt find the same mood from before. He wanted to beat Close. Wanted to win against that little brat. He wanted to prove his dignity as a big brother. But hed already lost. Chapter 241.2: Making every game into part of Glorys history was what a real Team of Gods should do! editor: apricot No one knew that Yuan Ze had secretly returned to S City, secretly returned to the outside of the FTW base. He didnt go in and didnt even get out of the car. He just watched it from a distance. He saw that the once warm villa had become cold, saw that the familiar faces had become strange ones, and saw that the home that hed once thought he would stay at for a long time had long become a fragmented place. At the time, Yuan Ze had felt that he couldnt beat up Close again. Because he was a deserter, while Close was guarding their FTW. Something that everyone had thought was impossible, but Close had done it. Theyd all given up. Any excuses, any reasons, any helplessness were all inadequate. Hed just given up. Marshal had lost to Close. So, how could he sign up for the singles? Dazzling light arcs exploded in the canyon. The familiar nine light arcs were still as dazzling as ever. Yuan Ze took a deep breath, used his damage immunity equipment, and retreated as much as he could, getting out of the attack range. The shadow thief in front of him wasnt Close. But the shadow thief in front of him was also Close. Hed trained up Gary to fight against Close in the singles competition. Close also had Quiet, who could revive the shadow thief in the team competition. There was no need to look back on the past that couldnt be changed. But the opportunity that was now in front of his eyes absolutely couldnt be lost! Yuan Ze, whod been depressed for several days or it should be said, Yuan Ze whod been feeling down for several years, was finally seeing the dawn. It was a light that tore through the thick fog, shining upon the sea of his heart, and dying the deep blue into a bloody red! The shadow thief landed. Yuan Zes brain was blank; there was only the death knight who switched forms on the screen. Its three dogs charged forward, followed with a heavy blade assault, magic buffs that strengthened his basic attack, and a blade that hit the shadow thief, disrupting his retreat and stabbing into his chest. Health bars plummeted, and the blood special effects that splashed out dyed the shadow thiefs dark lightweight armor red. The death knight used his skills to reduce his cooldowns, switching forms again. The light form death knight was like a big demon that had come out of the demon world. He was slender, and moved at shocking speeds. The heavy blade grew shorter and shorter, and as he approached the shadow thief, the blade swept across his throat, killing him off with a single blow! System AnnouncementCC Marshal killed Quiet. The death knight killed the shadow thief. A death knight that hadnt been seen for a long time. A shadow thief that hadnt been seen for a long time. A duel of life and death that hadnt been seen for a long time! Yuan Ze only came back to his senses when he saw the fallen shadow thief. He looked unconsciously at his hands that were still on his keyboard He hadnt felt like this in a long time. This kind of feeling that didnt need forethought, didnt need him to anticipate the opponent, this kind of feeling where instinct was greater than reason, where he had complete trust in himself. Wei Xiaos words popped up in the chat box. Not bad, Old Shit. Yuan Zes mouth curved. It wasnt a deliberate, false smile, but a carefree one. It was as though the years and the accompanying pain had been washed away, leaving only the initial pleasure from before. Again! Wei Xiao: Bring it! Old Bandit Yuan really had some skill. He was really worthy of being the death knight whod forced out nine light arcs! Wei Xiao had another version of Yuan Zes segment of memories. His nine light arcs had always been unstable, but as long as he soloed with Lu Fengs death knight, it would become very stable, with an almost 100% success rate. Wei Xiao couldnt help being curious. After asking about it several times, Wei Xiao learned Close had been the one to brush out nine light arcs, but Teacher Yuan had contributed quite a lot. Without equal opponents, where would these amazing stunts come from? There were some shackles that couldnt be broken through alone. Partners and opponents were the elements that stimulated unlimited growth in people. Unknowingly, over an hour passed in this way. Bai Cai came into the room. What are you doing? Wei Xiao: Playing against the old bandit. Brother Cai took a closer look. Holy shit, the win rate between you two Wei Xiao: The old bandit is still quite fierce. One minute per game. Theyd already fought over sixty times. Wei Xiao had died forty eight times, while Yuan Ze hadnt even died twenty times. Although death knights had a natural advantage against the shadow thief, it had to be said that Yuan Ze was really very strong. After all, in the current solo mode, everyone came out with full gear and there was no need to spend time on development. However, if a shadow thief could brush out nine light arcs, they might not necessarily even be to be held down by the death knight. Brother Cai watched for a while. Theres been significant improvement on the level of your light arcs. Wei Xiao: Mm. Brother Cai was still worrying. Captain Yuans anti-restraint ability is really strong. Wei Xiao: Its just that he doesnt want to play it. If he does, he can brush out nine light arcs, too. This wasnt just random talk about Yuan Ze. It was a statement of facts. Yuan Ze understood the shadow thief too well. His knowledge of the talent was scalp numbing. It was true that he simply didnt want to play it. If he played it, then the nine light arcs would be on hand whenever he wanted them. How had he been able to train up Gary? If he didnt know how, then how could he train him up? After watching for a while, Bai Cai was cowering a little. Teacher Yuans really terrifying. He really deserved to be the number one singles king in Glory. His reputation was well-earned. In the game, Wei Xiao fell again. What did you think? Normally, L&P and FTW had a good relationship. The two teams interacted often and got along peacefully, so theyd forgotten who it was on the other side. How could it not be terrifying? Once the strongest top-laner, the man whod gotten the FMVP and had led his team to win the golden dragon trophy the year before last, how could he be weak? Not to mention Wei Xiaos shadow thief stood up again in the canyon. Not to mention, hes finally gotten serious. Brother Cai: After another fight, Brother Cai interrupted again. Can you fix your problem of revitalizing your opponents before the game! As hed been saying, why hadnt he gone to find the captain in the middle of the night and stayed here soloing with Yuan Ze instead? It turned out that this was Wei Little Xiaos fixed practice before the gameCChelping his opponents! Others might not know, but Brother Cai knew it all. It had been exactly like that during the domestic competition! Before playing with the top four, Wei Little Xiao had to fiercely heal up his opponents. If he couldnt get the other side to get into it, then he didnt seem to be able to play. He could clearly win the championship in easy mode, yet he insisted on turning it into hell mode. What was this little bastard thinking! Wei Xiaos expression was innocent, Ah? Bai Cai: If Captain Yuan isnt serious, then our win rate is only thirty or forty percent. After hes been all cheered up can we still win?! Wei Xiao disdained him. Its growing their ambitions before destroying their prestige. Bai Cai was still in a poor mood. Youre the one who is giving them those ambitions! Wei Xiao glanced at the time and left Yuan Ze a reluctant message. Old Shit, I have to go. Yuan Ze: ? Wei Xiao: My boyfriend is off work! Yuan Ze: Get lost! After quitting the solo room, Wei Xiao got up and said, If I dont cheer him up, then how can we win? Bai Cai couldnt understand this, but Lu Feng would definitely have understood if he was here. If he wasnt cheered up. Then how could they win! In the final analysis, there was only one solution to Lu Fengs troubles and Yuan Zes irritability. And it was what Wei Xiao had told themCCto just play their best and fight! No matter who won or lost, regardless of the past, in this fight between L&P and FTW, they just had to give full play to all their abilities, show off their entire strength, and have a fight without any reservations! This was a game that was being played in front of the whole world, and it would be broadcast live across the globe. As long as they did their best, then so what if they lost? What they feared wasnt failure but regret! Regardless of whether it was L&P or FTW. What they feared most wasnt stopping at the top eight, but a cowardly exit! The audiences eyes were bright and clear. The best game wouldnt necessarily be in the finals. And the finals didnt guarantee those games would be the most outstanding. Making every game into part of Glorys history was what a real Team of Gods should do! Time passed by quickly. It seemed that they were already ushering in the third game of the eight into four games in the blink of an eye. Y1 and Pro had already successfully entered the top four. FTW was undergoing special training behind closed doors. Let alone going to watch the game at the scene; they didnt even watch the live broadcasts. Of course, the coaching team and special advisor Fu Li had gone over the games many times. L&P was their most important opponent at present, but Y1 and Pro couldnt be ignored. The battle to enter the top four was very difficult, but everyone firmly believed that FTW could advance to the semi-finals. In that case, they had to do their homework on their next opponent! There was one game for the top four held every day. When FTW set out to the venue, Money remained at the base. Moonlit looked at him. Mo Hui covered his eyes. Im going back to sleep. Call me when its over. Moonlit: With just this level of potential, he should hurry back and inherit his family business instead! Mo Hui wasnt the only one who didnt dare to watch. Eurostar-star didnt dare to watch, either. However, Eurostar-star was in a miserable position. Hed been brought along by his own captain to act as a special guest commentator. Eurostar looked pitifully at his captain, who was sitting in a special guest seat. Although he didnt make a sound, his eyes were filled with pleas of: Switch, switch, please, lets switch! Fu Li was unmoved. The special guest was different from the commentator seats. The commentator booth followed the entire game, keeping an eye on the battle situation in order to provide timely commentary. The special guests area only needed to provide predictions prior to the game, analysis during halftime, and a game review after the game. In comparison, the special guest seats seemed far more comfortable, okay! Unfortunately The competition committee appreciated Fu Lis ability to review the game, and they were more optimistic about Eurostar-stars youthful face for the commentator position. So, one of them had a commentator seat, while the other went to the special guest seating. The camera swept over. The game was imminent, and Eurostar could only acknowledge his fate. FTW had to make a good showing! He didnt want to be Glorys number one poisoned tongue! Chapter 242.1: I couldnt deal DPS. How could we win? editor: apricot After getting to their seats, Little Ning rubbed his hands. Wei Xiao slanted a look at him, Nervous? Ning Zhehan: A-a-a-a-a little. Wei Xiao was amused. What did you say about winning any game is considered as having gained something? Little Ning: I was young and arrogant. Ive calmed down now. He could still snark. That kind of thing wasnt a big deal. Chen Feng smacked each of them once, telling these bratty children to settle down a bit. Being nervous was a given. How could they not feel the slightest bit flustered? It wasnt like they were Little Lunatic Wei! However, this tension was controllable, and it was even beneficial to their play. It could mobilize adrenaline, help them concentrate, and keep them in a highly-focused state. This was a good thing. Along the way to this point, granny gray had also become a mid-laner king whod been tempered through thousands of trials and wouldnt end up as the weak link now! Yue Wenle was alright. Hed always been slower to react, and everyone understood that. They just had to prepare potato chips for him when leaving the base, and he would chomp on them on the way over, in the backstage lounge, and before going up onto the stage Brother Liu really lived up to his reputation as the FTW nanny and always got the amount just right. If there was too much, then President Le wouldnt be able to finish them all and wouldnt be able to bear parting with them, but if there was too little, then President Le would feel it was a shame there wasnt enough. So, Brother Liu would set it up so that he would run out of potato chips just as FTWs battle song started playing. Like this, Yue Wenle would be like a boxer whod finished his rest time and was filled with fighting spirit when he went up onto the stage! Without mentioning anything else, he could maintain this state for at least three matches, which was when halftime would kick in. Brother Liu wanted to express that there would always be enough potato chips, and President Le didnt need to panic! Chen Feng often suspected that this cub of his was transmuted from potato chips. Otherwise, why would he be so fascinated with them?! Brother Cai wasnt nervous. Why was that? Because FTW had already had a discussion about it before they left. The topic of their discussion had naturally been the battle of freedom. Chen Feng: Are we using the soul warlock system? Brother Cais face turned very pale as soon as he heard this. He was so nervous that he wished he could slide from his chair to under the table and cover his head with an iron pot while he was at it. Little Lunatic Wei was clearly the core of the soul warlock system, but the white cabbage was the one who was cowering the most. Chen Feng stared at him. Brother Cai: QAQ! His jungler king rescued him from this encirclement. Its not very suitable. At this moment, Wei Little Xiao was like Bai Caicais reborn parent, his life-saving benefactor, and he would repay him with his bod ah, no, Brother Cai was being presumptuous! Chen Feng had been worried about this too. Otherwise, he wouldnt have phrased it as a question. The L&P team was quite special, particularly for FTW. They were the team that restrained FTW the most out of last years top four. When it came to Pros marksman system, Lu Feng and Wei Xiao might be able to beat out a bloody path if they went up together. With EVEs mid-lane core system, although Ning Zhehan would be under great pressure, Wei Xiao was very good at reaching and cutting down c-positions. If he bit at Xie He and didnt let go, then it would be difficult to determine who would win or lose. As for Y1 Well, they were hard to deal with, but their style was different from L&P. If a comparison had to be made, then Y1 was a shield, and L&P and FTW were both spears. Shields could stop spears. And spears could also pierce shields. It all depended on whether the shield was stronger or if the spear was sharper. However, things got awkward when it was a double spear battle like L&P and FTW. They both had strong junglers, they both had daddies in the top-lane, and they were both overlords of the jungle as well as masters at controlling the games rhythm When it came to a battle, then whoever sucked more would lose. Of course, things werent so absolute. The game still relied on tactics. But no matter how they changed their tactics, their top-jungler core systems couldnt be changed. In fact, regardless of whether it was L&P or FTW, their mid-lane and bottom support players werent weak. They were completely able to carry the bulk of the weight in ordinary games, but when they came up against another top-jungler team Forget it, who didnt know what Gary and Quiet were like! One was a North American wild dog, and the other was a Chinese lunatic. When they started biting at people, it was enough to leave behind psychological shadows! VIVI, despite being a veteran, was also intimidated by Little Lunatic Wei, okay? So, both sides only played jungler cores, and they could only try and find ways to suppress each other with their top-jungler systems. These days, the FTW coaching team included Fu Li. The amount of hair that hed lost was enough to really make his fans cry. The battle of freedom was very important. Winning the first game would set things off for a great start! Their mentality would take a hit if they lost. Setting up their mentality was tactically very important! It was unknown how L&P was doing, but FTW was cautious and careful. They would absolutely never miss any opportunity. Fu Li had also been in the conference room. He suggested, Its safer to take a double thief line-up in the battle of freedom. Chen Fengs eyebrows twisted together in a frown. Wei Xiao agreed. I vote for double thief. Brother Cai had tears in his eyes. He wanted to raise his hand, but was also afraid that the coach would beat him up. He could only watch on eagerly and wait for guillotine to fall. Fu Li had put deep thought into it before making this suggestion. Chen Feng understood what he meant better than anyone else in the room. Indeed, FTWs soul warlock line-up had done well right from the start, showing momentum and style. It even represented the confidence of the China competition zone. Countless people expected them to take another soul warlock line-up and do another wave of heaven-defying operations, letting double stunts fly all over the canyon. However They werent up against IN, but L&P. L&P was a steel blade and was definitely unafraid of hitting back. The soul warlock line-up was essentially one where they fought everywhere over the map, however L&P was equally eager to fight with their opponents from beginning to end. When it came to fighting, they werent afraid of any team in Glory. In the global finals last year, Y1 had been able to win that last game due to Yan Jiangs precise, computer-like commands. And what was the core tenet of Yan Jiangs command? CCAvoid head-on conflict and slowly nibble away at L&Ps flanks. That game had left peoples hearts hanging in fright, and watching it had made their scalps feel numb. L&P fans had been so angry that their liver and lungs were about to burst, and theyd cursed Y1 for a full three months. Y1s fans had also been terrified. How f*cking good did they have to be at fighting to force Yan Jiang to have to concentrate so much? Therefore, it was very likely that L&P would destroy FTWs soul warlock system. It wasnt that FTW couldnt fight. From the moment Wei Xiao joined the team, FTW had already been destined to become a lunatic team. If they could have a fight, then they would never waste time with words. If there was no fight to be had, then they would go find one! If FTW wanted to win against L&P, they had to fight hard, and it would be a competition to see who could fight better. However, that didnt mean that they could be reckless. The soul warlock line-ups weakness prior to reaching level six was too big. Brother Cai could cope with an ordinary jungler, but he would simply explode on the spot if he went up against Old G. If their jungle zone was completely occupied prior to reaching level six, then it would be too difficult for them to regain their rhythm after level six. Especially when they were up against Gary It would be the equivalent of having Little Lunatic Wei go up against him in solo with only half of his health. The two of them were already evenly matched. How could they fight if he sacrificed half his health before they even started? Besides The soul warlock line-up was FTWs killer trump card. It might not work against L&P, but it may be effective against c-position cores like EVE and Pro. If they took it out now and let Yuan Ze and Old G beat it up until it collapsed into pieces, would they be able to still play out the same effect of the soul warlock against EVE and Pro even if they were lucky enough to make it into the semi-finals? The pros and cons were right in front of their eyes. It was obvious how they should balance things out. Using the soul warlock against L&P would gain them nothing except pleasing the audience. So Chen Feng looked at Lu Feng. Double thief. Lu Feng nodded. The line-up for their battle of freedom was decided! The double thief system was another one of FTWs primary line-ups. Although it didnt have the same element of surprise as the soul warlock and couldnt completely unleash Little Lunatic Weis strength, FTW had enough power to compete with L&P in the early, mid, and late stages! Close vs Marshal. Quiet vs Gary. The global showdown was about to begin! The selection of talents for the battle of freedom went by very quickly since they had a plan. When the shadow thief and blood thief both appeared at the same time, the audience still felt that it was a fluke. Eh, Caicai can play the blood thief? The blood thiefs not bad. The other sides Old G will definitely take the shadow thief. The blood thiefs strong blood sucking ability can resist the shadow thiefs light arcs Thats not right the blood thiefs operations, um Its not that Im looking down on my vegetable, but using the blood thief to play a support seems a bit exaggerated. Oh my god, the holy priest! The audience woke up as soon as the holy priest showed up. It wasnt possible for Brother Cai to use the blood thief, it would never happen in this life! He could only use the holy priests bubble tune and other such skills! The audience who had scrambled for tickets and stepped over thousands of troops just to see the soul warlock line-up were all seriously disappointed! What about the agreed upon double thousand layers of clouds! What about the agreed upon double stepping on raindrops! What about the agreed upon double light arcs! Not only did the live audience at the scene want to kick up a fuss, but the viewers in the live broadcast studio also started making trouble. Laozi waited for two hours, and youre showing me this?! Laozi turned down a date with my girlfriend, yet as a result, youre using double thief to mess with me? Ahhhhh, I fought with my mother in order to get a cell phone, yet Im unable to see the legendary double light arcs! This issue was also being discussed in the commentator booth. This wasnt the first time that Eurostar-star had sat here. He performed well and could answer and provide commentary without leaking anything by accident. There was no hint of the cowardly baby at all. The other two commentators today were Brother Mouth and A-Light. Brother Mouth asked, Has TPT played against FTWs soul warlock line-up? Eurostar smiled slightly. Yep. Brother Mouth was curious. How was it? Eurostar: The grandmaster couldnt kill me. Of course, I couldnt deal DPS either. This one sentence amused many people. The fans whod originally been clamoring to see the soul warlock calmed down as well. These words were very interesting. Wei Xiao wasnt able to kill him even after the attachment, which was enough to show how timid the cowardly baby was. Cowering so much that he couldnt deal damage, who else would do that but him? A-light asked, Then, who won? Eurostar: I couldnt deal DPS. How could we win? His words caused another round of laughter. Chapter 242.2: The strongest top-jungler combo! editor: apricot This gag moment in the commentary could be considered a relief for the audience who wouldnt be able to see the soul warlock. Everyone might be unhappy, but it wasnt to the point where theyd get up and leave. What were you thinking? This was L&P against FTW! This was the global showdown against the peak top-jungler combos! Even if they simply did basic attacks with super soldiers, it would still be a unique fight in Glory history! Not to mention Even without the soul warlock, the battle of freedom would be explosive enough. Just look at the line-up from both sides. FTW had the shadow thief in the top lane and blood thief for jungler. Double thief had come out to play, preparing to sweep through the game! L&Ps top-laner was the death knight, and they took the shadow thief for their jungler. Double shadow went up on stage together, planning to fight across the whole world! Just from this what more did they want! Sit tight and watch; it would absolutely be wonderful. L&Ps team chat. Old G sighed. The little lunatic really didnt use the soul warlock. Yuan Ze: Its not like hes a fool. Old G: He always had this suspicion that the captain was implying something, but he had no evidence. VIVI smiled like a fox. I feel like Quiet is going to mess with me. As L&Ps starter mid-laner, hed taken the earth mage in this match to balance out their line-up. FTW had the same idea. Ning Zhehan was using the zither warlock, which tended more towards support and functionality. VIVI would say this because he knew that the zither warlock was unable to beat the earth mage in the early stages. If Wei Xiao didnt come to provide support, then VIVI would beat up Ning Zhehan until he was left crying. The middle lane was an important line for the jungle zone. If it wasnt held, then it could start a vicious cycle. Wei Xiao had to help Ning Zhehan in order to play out an advantage in the game. Gary: A man after my own heart. It hadnt been easy for him to learn an idiom and he had to show it off. VIVI: ? Gary explained: It means that theyre falling into a trap! VIVI: Okay then, he understood half of it. Indeed, if Wei Xiao went to support Ning Zhehan, then VIVIs earth mage wouldnt have any problems protecting himself. Wei Xiao could help Ning Zhehan pressure the lane, but he wouldnt be able to get a kill. On the contrary, it would negatively impact Ning Zhehans development. Gary wouldnt go and provide support to VIVI. He would go to the top lane; there was no doubt about it. When the time came, theyd gank the great demon king to death. Tsk, just thinking of this made Old Gs scalp go numbCCit would feel great! L&Ps line of thought was reasonable and justified. Wei Xiao really did need to take care of Ning Zhehan more, but If a jungler king didnt go and mess around in the other sides jungle zone at the start of the game, then he wouldnt be a jungler king! Wei Xiao used the kiss of the blood raven as soon as he went out. Captain~! Lu Feng: Mm. Brother Cai went to the mid-lane following their original plan. Little Ning was too slow at clearing the lane and needed his help. When it came to the bottom lane, Yue Wenle shouldnt end up being abused while clearing the first round of lane soldiers. Also, if the holy priest stayed in the mid-lane, then he could quickly provide support to the top-jungler zone. Wei Xiao was going into the other sides jungle zone. He naturally had to start with the top-jungler zone. With other teams, he could take Brother Cai with him and go wild, but when he was up against Old Bandit Yuan, he could only go to the top lane. Other than the captain, no one else could help him. Wei Xiao dared to go, and Old G dared to wait for him. Yuan Ze went to the top lane first. He wasnt anyone else, and would never be afraid of Close. He tested out the jungle zone vision and understood where he was going as soon as he looked. Yuan Ze: Red buff bushes, be careful. Gary: Got it! His voice had just fallen when a shadow flew over. It was the blood raven thiefs control skill: Kiss of the Blood Raven! Whoever it touched would be dazed for 0.5 seconds. Although the control duration wasnt long, if there was a shadow thief with the shadow attack skill beside him, Gary would be sent away. Fortunately, Gary had been prepared a long time ago and used shadow attack to mark the red buff. Using the movement provided by his general attack, he pulled away slightly. Wei Xiao: Tsk, hes so slippery. There were the expected bursts of exclamation in the scrolling comments. It really is God G, he even avoided that! How many people have been locked away by Little Lunatic Weis blood raven kiss? Garys worthy of being the worlds top jungler king. Without mentioning his operations, even his consciousness is great. Its as if he had vision. Speaking of which, L&Ps crazy. They really didnt put vision in the red buff bushes. They probably didnt want to waste it and guessed early on that Wei Xiao would pass by This was what the power of predicting ones opponents was. Wei Xiao had been constantly paying attention to the mini map. Gary could predict him, and he could also predict Old Bandit Yuan. There was no doubt that the death knight would slide in from the rear; he had to be on guard. At almost the same time, the death knights heavy blade swept across, aiming at the position where the blood raven thief was. Wei Xiao didnt use a movement skill, but he had a speed bonus. He also avoided the death knights attack with almost no room to spare! This first, brief scuffle didnt benefit anyone. Wei Xiao: Withdraw? Pestering them again would be a waste of time. Not to mention that the death knight was the daddy for all three thieves present in the early stages; pressing hard was meaningless. Lu Feng made a sound of agreement. Go. Wei Xiao had no movement skills and withdrew to the middle lane without looking back. Brother Cai came to pick him up, afraid that Yuan Ze and Old G would try to prevent him from leaving. Lu Feng went in a different direction from him. Instead of jumping down from the dragon pit, he hid all trace of himself before concealing himself in the second bush near the top lane. The audience saw it with gods perspective and grew excited. Holy shit, he lives up to being my great demon king! Is he going to mess with Scum Man Yuan? Screw him! Screw him! Screw him to death! Exciting, exciting! When old teammates meet, they should mutually stab each other. They watched as the shadow thief slunk into the bushes. Hed obviously judged the death knights position based on the direction of his skills and used the movement skill to stack marks on the jungle creep in order to defeat the death knight without another word. The director was very sneaky. He provided a small frame that showed a close-up of Yuan ZeCC He was staring at the screen, and a trace of suppression flashed in his eyes, followed by slightly raised thin lips and a series of quick operations. They really started fighting! A level one death knight and a level one shadow thief! The heavy blade assault, the shadow blade backstab. It was at most three seconds! The shadow thief had the advantage of flexibility. Even if its DPS was lower than the death knights, as long as he could avoid the death knights heavy blade, he could reduce the damage taken to a minimum. Additionally, his backstab was continuous; stacking up small critical hits would be enough to hurt even the death knight who had a high starting defense. Commentator Brother Mouth had already started praising without paying any heed to politeness. Its a classic shadow thief against death knight routine! No, this is a tactic that the shadow thief uses against all kinds of talents who are strong in the early stages! He chattered on for a while. Eurostar-star smiled from the side even as his inner thoughts were full of snark. Everyone can understand it, but who can f*cking do it?! When it came to this kind of micro-operation, even the slightest mistake could be the difference between heaven and earth, not to mention when one was up against Yuan Ze. An ordinary shadow thief wouldve died long ago, without any need to talk about exchanging blood! Yuan Ze was really familiar with Lu Feng. Hed been caught off guard by his rush into the bushes, but he soon accurately judged the origin of the shadow thiefs shadow attack. The heavy blades range wasnt something that the shadow thief could avoid, and even if he did, then it meant he could no longer hurt the death knight. Lu Feng stopped while things were still good for him. He made use of his lane soldiers to pull away and went back to his lane. From the top jungle zone back to the top lane, the shadow thief had never taken any regular steps. Even so, this path was extremely smooth and had maximized his farm. Other than Close, who else could do such a thing as smoothly as floating clouds and flowing water? The audience felt satisfied just from watching it, and the directors often panned the camera to the top lane so that everyone could see the top lane daddies Imperial PK! FTWs invasion into the opposite sides jungle hadnt been a failure. They tested things out and interfered, while holding onto their own jungle zone. After returning to his blue jungle zone, Wei Xiao started up his rapid jungle clearing mode. Garys shadow thief and Wei Xiaos blood thief were both high DPS thieves. They cleared their jungles at amazing speeds. The director split the display, showing that both sides rhythm was similar. Obviously, the skills they used werent the same, and their damage ratio was different, yet they still managed to brush out a similar rhythm. Commentator Brother Mouth pointed out accurately. The gap between them is less than a second! This kind of speed, this race against time. What they were fighting for was the power to gank first! Everyone understood this, and they all watched on wondering which lane the fighting would break out in first. They were even more curious about whether or not the two sides would choose to provide support in the same lane. The team chat channel wasnt idle as they efficiently cleared out their jungles. Brother Cai: Why do I feel that its safer to go to the mid-lane? Wei Xiao: Go to the top lane. Brother Cai: Can Little Ning hold on? Once you show up at the top lane, V will definitely hammer him until he explodes. Ning Zhehan was working hard to clear his lane. I feel that I can do it! Wei Xiao: Did you hear that? Brother Ning can really do it. Brother Cai: Are you f*cking unable to talk without adding some color! L&P had never been afraid of getting predicted by others. They were practically broadcasting this statement to the whole world: In the first wave, Old G will definitely go to the top lane. They werent afraid of telling you and almost wished they could shout it out using a loudspeaker. Come on, come to the top lane. If you dont come, then well kill your top laner; if you do come, then well kill you both. Overall, they never tried to hide. Their actions were simple and rough, aimed at just forcing you to fight! Wei Xiao understood them well, and he really trusted his captain, but He wanted to go answer the call to fight! He wanted to dampen L&Ps arrogance right from the start. Teams from all around the world are afraid of you, but we arent afraid! Was double shadow really badass? Double thief was even stronger! Wei Xiao wasnt afraid of Gary, and Close wasnt afraid of Yuan Ze. It was time for the title of the strongest top-jungler combo to change! Chapter 243.1: He had a teammate who he could trust with his life! Gary arrived at the top lane one step ahead of Wei Xiao. Invisible in the grass, his position was perfect. Although Commentator Brother Mouth was a Close fan who liked to praise him, he had to praise Gary this time around. This positioning is very on point. He can see the enemy providing support immediately and block the other partys way. Once the death knight manages to latch onto the shadow thief, Close wont be able to escape! Would Close be surrounded and pincered to death from the front and back? What were they thinking?! Were the training matches they played for nothing? Was FTWs coaching team there for nothing? Was the information that Captain Fu had sorted through personally all in vain? Or did they think that Closes brain wasnt good enough to remember those routines that hed figured out clearly a long time ago? None of the above. In the end Yuan Ze had only just switched forms and hadnt yet swept out his blade when the shadow thief had already started his assault, using a shadow attack to land a mark and retreat to the furthest possible distance. His shadow attack combo didnt break, and what was even more shocking was that he had avoided both Yuan Zes attack and Garys mark! L&Ps team chat. Gary: Sure enough, badass. Theyd known early on that they may not be able to hold him, but they hadnt expected him to be this slippery. It was fortunate that the one using the death knight was Yuan Ze, and the one with the shadow thief was Gary. If it was anyone else, then they would have ended up either dead or injured. Similarly, it was a good thing that the Close was the shadow thief or else Gary wouldve taken First Blood a long time ago! This round wasnt like the jungle zone invasion. Gary wasnt about to leave until hed obtained some results, and not only did he not leave, VIVI had also rushed over from the mid-lane. At this time, Wei Xiao had just arrived at the dragon pit and was halfway to the top lane. Ning Zhehan gave him a signal. President V went up! Wei Xiao had already seen his direction from the minimap. Mm. Ning Zhehan followed VIVI closely, not willing to let L&P have a three against two fight. At this moment, Wei Xiao was faced with a choice. Would he continue supporting the top lane, or would he turn around to catch VIVI with Ning Zhehan? The audience, who had the gods perspective, noticed this problem quickly. The commentators had already tossed this question over to Eurostar-star to deal with. Although Eurostar wasnt as sharp as his own captain, as the core of TPT and the Godly Calculators darling, his vision was no joke still. Considering the overall situation, its better if he supports Ning Zhehan and ganks VIVI. The zither warlock is weaker than the earth mage in the early stages, and although Ning Zhehan is stable, his defense tower has already lost one sixth of its health. If they continue to let it go like this, the zither warlocks development phase will be extended, which would be a poor outcome for the overall battle situation. He paused, then continued: And VIVI has always been a cunning player. Its very difficult to gank him deliberately; this is a rare opportunity. This was a very comprehensive comment. He gave a full range of advice that took into consideration the situation, talents, and the players temperaments. So, how would Wei Xiao choose? The audience just wanted to watch the excitement. Go to the top lane!! Hurry up and help Close kill those two dog men! Little Ning, drag down VIVI so that Quiet and Close can have a 2v2 against Yuan Ze and Gary! Take down the top lane! I want to see FTW take down all the towers in the top lane today! Wei Xiao paused for about 0.5 seconds, then took action! At first, the director had given the audience a shot of the top lane. The first thing they saw was Close rushing forward half a step. It seemed like he was going to fight! Close had gone up. Was it because Quiet had decided to support the top lane? That was what the audience thought, as well as the three players from L&P. Gary: Quiets coming up! Closes actions were tantamount to telling them that there was someone behind him. Yuan Ze didnt make a sound. He stared at the minimap and watched Ning Zhehans positioning. VIVI: Ill get rid of Ning Zhehan. That was the appropriate course of action. If VIVI was able to reach the top lane first, then the two jungler kings from FTW would be done for on the top lane today. Thats not right! Yuan Ze, whod been keeping an eye on the area, noticed that something was off. Quiet wouldnt take so long F*ck! Sure enough, even before he finished speaking, the kiss of the blood raven landed on VIVIs head, accurately controlling him. It was followed by a combo from the blood thief. By the time VIVI could move, the zither warlocks skills had also been tossed over. Chords hit his body, providing both strong control and DPS. The earth mages name might sound similar to that of the earth shaman, but the two of them were very different talents. Ones health was as thin as paper, while the other was tough and thick. What they had in common was that they both had strong control skills. However, the problem was that an earth mage who had been controlled first could only be done for. He couldnt even activate a flash skill. Of course, using it wouldnt make much sense since the blood thief would kill him anyway. In this canyon, life and death were separated by only this short second. System AnnouncementCC First Blood! FTW.Quiet killed L&P.VIVI! Quiet happily picked up First Blood. FTW was off to a good start! Cheers rang endlessly from the audience, even as a bloody battle broke out on the top lane. When the announcement that Close had been killed popped up, the live broadcast audience and the live audience at the scene both felt a sense of incredulity. The great demon king had been killed Five minutes into the start of the game, Close had been killed Looking at the games across the whole competition zone, as long as Close participated, his death count had always been very low. Let alone when it was only five minutes into the game. Trading VIVI for Close? Had FTW really gotten the advantage in this wave? Countless people began to question this, and their hearts even started to feel cold. When a player was so iconic, his death wouldnt be as simple as just losing experience and gold coins. It would result in a sharp drop in momentum! The most important thing in a game were these intangible feelings. Momentum, confidence, state. Once they sustained damage, any good team could scatter like grains of loose sand. This Not only the audiences expressions, but even in the commentator booth, Brother Mouths expression changed slightly, hinting at concern. However, all this gloom soon dissipated, and the haze disappeared Sunlight covered the canyon and lit things up for everyone! The blood thief used two feather transforms and in the blink of an eye, he arrived at the top lane from the dragon pit. Immediately after that, black feathers covered the sky, the raven landed, and the kiss of the blood raven wrapped around the death knight. When Gary landed, he used shadow attack to leave a mark on the blood thief. Wei Xiao didnt even try to avoid it and took the mark before instantly opening up his ultimate move. With blood as an oath, and dark feathers as servants. The deep scarlet special effects made it seem like the entire top lane defense tower was bathed in a rain of blood. He took the damage from the defense tower and made use of his shocking blood sucking ability. Wei Xiaos health bar suddenly fell down to a seriously injured state, then soared back up to half health like a roller coaster, but he didnt stop at all. His combo was overwhelming, his damage increasing wildly with the amount of health he sucked in. The death knight and shadow thief whod used up all their skills in order to kill Close could only wait to die! System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed L&P.Marshal! FTW.Quiet killed L&P.Gary! FTW.Quiet double kill! Heated applause broke out in the venue that had fallen silent when the great demon king fell to the ground! This was a godly start to the match featuring a godly Quiet whod gone beneath the tower to get a double kill like a dream, killing the strongest top-jungler combo in the world! The little lunatic had avenged the great demon king! This scene shocked many people. Whether it was the live commentators and audience, the fans and haters in the lie broadcasting room, the melon seed eating gossipers on the internet, or even L&Ps hardcore fans back in North America,they were all shocked. He became famous with one fight. FTW.Quiet gained worldwide fame with this one fight! No matter who it was, as long as theyd seen the scene just now, they would never forget this blood raven thief, and they would never forget this jungler player. They wouldnt forget his decisiveness at pouncing on his opponents, and his ferocious killing techniques. Regardless of his own life or death, the two of them had to die! Forcibly bypassing the tower just to send the two of them back to the crystal! You can find the rest of this content on the lightno?velpub.c-om platform. In the backstage guest seats, Fu Lis lips curved. Although there was no camera present at the moment, they were also discussing the situation. The retired player whod been invited as a guest said, The new generation is amazing! Fu Li hit the nail on the head. Close is amazing. Everyone noticed the blood thief, and everyone saw that dazzling ray of light. Everyone saw the brilliant sun that illuminated the haze. But there were others who saw the fallen shadow thief, the shadow thief whod created enough opportunity for the blood thief. They noticed the vast and deep sky behind the scorching sun. In the first wave of group fights between FTW and L&P, Quiet had traded one kill for three, and Quiet, who had taken three kills, was now far ahead of everyone else! This was the result. But without the initial setup, how could there be such results? Taking advantage of this time when the game was proceeding steadily, the director opened up a small frame and quickly played back the group fight just now. Close had been the first to make a move. He attracted Yuan Ze and Garys attacks and created the illusion that Quiet was about to go to the top lane. After VIVI relaxed his vigilance, Quiets kiss of the blood raven controlled him, and Ning Zhehan took advantage of his long range to continue the control, allowing the two of them to kill VIVI almost instantly. In the top lane, Yuan Ze and Gary certainly wouldnt give up until the very end. This move of Closes had not only created opportunities for Quiet, but had also put himself in danger. Based on the replay, based on Closes strength, there was at least a 50% chance that he could retreat back under the tower and protect his own life. However, Close hadnt retreated! He knew that at such a close distance, Yuan Ze wouldnt give him the chance to brush out light arcs, but he still insisted on starting them up. It wasnt for the sake of killing two people on his own, but to cheat the other side out of all their skills! The death knight switched between the two forms, perfectly interrupting his marks. On the other hand, Gary had his captain to help him pave the way, and his own light arcs started up quickly. He brushed out eight light arcs, causing an overflow of damage that was enough to kill Close! The great demon king fell to the ground. Yuan Ze and Gary had only just taken a breath of relief when the blood raven thief rushed over. At the time, Yuan Ze had immediately yelled, Withdraw! There was no way to fight. The blood raven thief hadnt used its ultimate move just now. If he dove in, he would easily be able to kill the two of them. Unfortunately, Gary was still up in the air. By the time he landed, the blood raven thief was already nearby. And then Quiet took a double kill! During this series of events, it looked as though Quiet had done an excellent play, but in fact, it was Close whod created this opportunity. The old fans who understood this scene all burst out into tears. How many years had it been? How long had it been? They were always looking forward to seeing the great demon king playing one against nine and winning the game, but theyd already forgotten that Close also needed teammates. It wasnt that Close couldnt create the right conditions for his teammates, but that others couldnt catch onto the opportunities he created! Now, there was this god-like tacit understanding, this cooperation that didnt need words! Close just needed to let himself go and do it, and it was fine even if he was killed, because There was someone behind him. He had a teammate who he could trust with his life! Chapter 243.2: What was the name of this FTW mid-laner? Trading one death for three, FTW had won themselves a big advantage! Old G sucked in a breath. Quiet can really do it. After that, he added another sentence. Close and Quiet together are really strong. Yuan Ze stared at the dark screen, his gaze both focused and far away. The younger generation will surpass the older. Regardless of whether it was Quiet or Close, both were of the younger generation to him. Now, these two younger brothers were going to throw him, the elder brother, onto the ground and smear him around. Could he stand it? Of course he wasnt going to stand for it! Yuan Ze spoke with focus. Old G. There was no need to say more. The tacit understanding they had was also something that had been bathed in blood and thorns. Gary: Got it! L&P had a famous rogue style play. Why was it called rogue? It wasnt because they broke the law nor was it because they were disgusting, but rather, it was because they were too unreasonable. They relied on the advantage of their top-jungler combo to brazenly bully others. Gary supported the top lane like crazy. With the double dark talents on the same stage, any top-laner on the other side would grow bald at the sight. There was no way to stand up to it at all. It would be over as soon as they let their defense tower go in order to protect their own lives. It would free up Yuan Ze, and then L&Ps top-jungler combo could roam around, beating up the mid and bottom lanes until they collapsed. Sacrificing ones life to defend the defense tower was also meaningless. Losing the tower after ones death was only a matter of time. Or, if the other sides jungler also started providing support to the top lane, they would still fall into L&Ps trap. When it came to two against two, Yuan Ze and Gary werent afraid of anyone; the two of them were able to hold steady even if it was a three against two fight, and they could still create enough opportunities for their teammates. President V, Mo, and President A werent vegetarians who were easy prey. They would still be able to clear the towers in the mid and bottom lanes! So, everyone knew how L&P played, but they couldnt find a solution to it. When faced with absolute strength, all sorts of recklessness or restraint was just fancy nothings. Yuan Ze and Gary were just that much of a domineering rogue duo! The only thing that was able to lock them down had been last years Y1. Of course, Y1s top-jungler combo wasnt all for show, either. They were fierce players who were really able to go up against them. Now, L&P had started messing with FTW in the same way. The audience felt stifled in their hearts as soon as they saw this. Ahhhh, cant you change methods? L&P, change your team name. What do you mean love and peace? You guys are tyrants and wild dogs! FTW, who had originally had an advantage, gradually had their advantage snatched away under Yuan Ze and Garys powerful suppression. Ordinary fans only saw Yuan Ze and Old Gs strength, and only noticed them biting at the top lane without letting go. But experts could see the situation more clearly. For example, Fu Li. He had studied L&Ps routines for many days and nights. It seemed to be Yuan Ze and Old Gs angry suppression, but in fact, it was actually an amazing cooperation between the whole team. Mid-laner VIVI, support Mo, bottom laner AA. They were all top players in the league, and all of them were fierce characters who could resist suppression in their lanes. VIVI was famous for having a doll-like face and was black on the inside. He was always smiling like a fox and looked harmless, but he could enrage the other side when he was in the canyon. You wanted to gank him? You would end up empty handed nine times out of ten! Even if Gary didnt hit up the mid-lane a single time, nothing would happen at his mid-lane tower. Who would dare to disrespect this kind of strength! Mo and AA were even more like a godly pair. Not to mention meeting with an ordinary bottom lane team, even if they went up against Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran, they would still be able to hold on until Yuan Ze finished beating up the top lane. As long as the top lane exploded, then L&Ps rhythm would take off instantly. They would kill anyone in their way, no matter if they were gods or buddhas! Before the game, everyone in L&P was already full of confidence. They didnt think that they would lose, and they were only afraid that they would get kicked out after beating their landlords into collapse. Thinking this way was very normal. After all, Close and Wei Xiao were still only two people no matter how strong they were. Ning Zhehan, Bai Cai, and Yuan Ze were all new recruits. When Close and Wei Xiao were suppressed by Yuan Ze and Gary, then VIVI and the others could beat the three little ones from FTW into tears. There were no obvious weaknesses in a strong team. The five players in L&P were all among the best, and as long as the top-jungler combos restrained each other, they were stable in a three against three situation. This was also the source of L&Ps confidence. And the match did develop this way as the game went on. The fighting was completely crazy in the top lane. Gary let go of his entire bottom jungle zone and only ate from the top jungle zone. Basically, he only cleared out the top jungle zone before going to the bushes in the top lane to try and trap Close. If Lu Fengs understanding towards him had been even slightly less thorough or his positioning had been even just a tiny bit closer, then he would have already fallen at least three or four times. However, even if he didnt die, Close had been completely restrained. Wei Xiao let go of his own bottom jungle zone after clearing it out once. Old Yue, its yours. Yue Wenle: Okay. If he didnt make a trade-off, then even the great demon king wouldnt be able to hold on! Wei Xiao also began to provide support to the top lane like crazy. At first, the two sides were still testing each other out, but later on, they both refused to let things go. The shadow thief and blood thief both had the advantage of being strong DPS dealers. They were extremely flexible talents with sufficient self-protection ability. But their disadvantages were also obvious, which was that they didnt have enough control skills to forcibly keep someone in place. The advantage of pairing a death knight with a shadow thief was that the death knight could resist damage, fight, and provide control. These skills were very comprehensive and had a natural suppression against thieves. Of course, there were some weaknesses involved; a death knight that went for the control route would sacrifice some flexibility, meaning that they were more likely to get caught by the two slippery thieves on the other side. Going for flexibility would reduce the death knights advantage, so finding balance was very difficult. There was also the weakness of players themselves. Close could brush out nine light arcs at will, but Gary could only sustain eight light arcs. In a 2v2, there was no difference in damage between eight or nine light arcs. They both dealt excess damage. What required attention was the difference in attack range. Nine light arcs had a much wider range than eight light arcs. If it wasnt interrupted, then the two of them would have to hold onto their skills and retreat. Once And again And yet again The top lane had wonderful plays, and everyone was immersed in watching, but at the same time, they became even more worried about the outcome of the game. Could FTW win! Could Close and Quiet, who had been completely restrained, split their attention to help their teammates? It could be seen that Close and Quiet really wanted to kill the two on the other side, but Yuan Ze and Gary werent in a hurry. They couldnt kill Lu Feng and Wei Xiao, but as long as they dragged the game on, it would be to L&Ps benefit. They couldnt let things drag on like this. Wei Xiao finished clearing the stone man that had just appeared in the top lane. Captain Close looked at the overall situation, his vision stopping at the mid-lane for a long time. Then, he said, Come. Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. Okay! Theyd probed tentatively at the other side so many times, and now, they were finally going to engage in a life or death struggle! There were no positioning errors, no ambush or ganking planned, or any surround and kill tactics. It was a head-on collision featuring real fighting as they showed off their operations! It was difficult for the double thieves to force people to stay, but Old Bandit Yuan would definitely be unable to resist the temptation. As for how they would get out of danger To hell with getting away, they just had to fight and be done with it! Wei Xiao took advantage of his high blood sucking ability and used his ultimate move to resist damage. At the same time, he aimed his kiss of the blood raven at the shadow thief. This was the only control skill that he and Close had. If it landed, then there was hope for them, and if it didnt, then things would be very difficult. It landed! Gary was frozen for 0.5 seconds. This was enough time for them to play! Wei Xiao: Im going first! In fact, he didnt have to say it and Close would still understand what he meant, but he wanted to say it. He wanted to tell CloseCC You can die for me, and I can also take on everything for you. Yuan Ze didnt have any intention of taking it easy on them at all. He attacked the blood thief with his blade, letting him suck as much blood as he wanted, since it wouldnt be enough to counter one attack from his death knight. A strengthened basic attack with crit damage flew out, causing a shocking 3800 points of damage. This was really damned insta-kill like. It had to be known that the blood thief only had 5800 health! One attack took down over half of his health. There wasnt even enough time to suck blood and recover health. There was little hope that Wei Xiao would be able to survive, but he had created enough of an opportunity by taking the lead to bear the brunt of this attack. He was sent flying, but it gave Close enough time to stack up his combo and move. The moment the blood thief fell to the ground, nine light arcs burst out in the canyon. Yuan Ze and Gary, who were caught within. F*ck! This was absolutely unavoidable. Even if the two of them shared the damage between them, it was enough to send them home. What could they do? Gary and Yuan Ze were also people whose hearts had a connection. Neither of them retreated. Instead, they both rushed towards the shadow thief who was still in mid air. There was no way for Gary to stack up light arcs. He could only use the skills he had to stack up a wave of maximum damage. Yuan Ze was still in his heavy form, and his attack had been raised up infinitely. Even if he didnt land a critical hit, his basic attack would deal nearly 2000 damage. It was sufficiently overbearing. This scene surprised everyone. The light arcs spread out all over the world, while the strongest top-jungler pair marched forward bravely. Their health bars plummeted quickly as they desperately tried to land a fatal blow on Close. There was finally a result for the 2v2 on the top lane. Close and Marshal both got a double kill at the same time! The four of them were all killed! This moment really made peoples blood boil, and it also made people want to laugh. Four very strong, very aggressive people, um It could be said that the two toughest top-jungler teams in Glory had played out a double defeat. You kill me, and I kill you. In the end, everyone perished together! What was even more suffocating was that theyd even cleared out the soldier lane the bustling top lane grew very lonely for a second. The black feathers that fell slowly back to the ground were like dead leaves falling in autumn. It was very picturesque. Was it an even tie? Was it a draw in the fight between the strongest top-jungler combos? Then, what about L&P and FTW? To everyones surprise, even the people abroad and watching online were surprised by the next system announcementCC FTW.Silvery killed L&P.VIVI. Theyd originally thought that after the top-jungler combos all died, FTW would be beaten to death. Unexpectedly, the zither warlock in the mid-lane had killed the earth mage on his own! What had happened? How could the famously slippery President V end up being killed by FTWs newcomer king? What was the name of this FTW mid-laner? Silvery. That big child with granny gray hair? Chapter 244.1: Even a 50 percent chance shouldn’t be given up! Let alone other people, even Ning Zhehan himself was surprised. His eyes were incredulous. I killed President V? Badass, Little Ning! Wei Xiao cheered for him from his spot where he was lying on the ground. Granny gray exclaimed in shock, I killed President V! Brother Cai: Sigh, it seemed that the MVP of Glorys Mic Explosion King would be Little Ning this time around. Wei Little Xiao had finally stepped down, allowing Little Ning to make a debut! Little Ning couldnt be blamed for being so surprised. FTW was very familiar with VIVI. The two teams had an unclear, messy, and complicated relationship, which resulted in them arranging countless training matches together. Theyd faced off against each other too many times, and each position knew their counterpart very well. In previous training competitions, President V had always been able to casually suppress Little Ning until he was left in tears. It was often a situation where the mid-lane collapsed and FTW was unable to turn the tables during the training matches. During the current official game, Ning Zhehan had said that any game they played was a game earned. He mostly felt that way in his heart, but theyd already entered the top eight and had gotten the domestic championship. It was impossible for him to have no ambitions at all, and there was always a tiny part of his heart that shouted, Win against VIVI, win against L&P, and charge into the global top four! However, Ning Zhehan became clear headed again as soon as he went to look at previous training matches. He couldnt win couldnt win in all kinds of ways. Skills were the easiest to make up for, but consciousness was something that was too mysterious. When entering the canyon, one had to integrate into the canyon. Every second, every moment, and every stage held unlimited possibilities. Routines could be filled in ahead of time, but when faced with the ever-changing game situation, hard strength was needed for accurate on the spot responses. This was obviously what Ning Zhehan lacked. It was difficult to pinpoint how to make up for it, because it was something that had to be built up over countless competitions. After going through game replays over and over again, Little Ning had grown more and more frustrated. Fu Li, who was practically living at FTW at the time, caught sight of it by accident. Whats the matter? Ning Zhehan was a little afraid of Fu Li. Firstly, this man had been born with an appearance that kept people at a distance. Secondly, it was a learning scums natural fear of a study god. Little Ning had been disdained as being too noob at learning by even the last in his class, and he cowered when he was faced with the top student from Nanjing University. No-nothing Fu Li glanced at the screen. Worried about VIVI? Little Ning: Yeah Fu Li pulled out an e-sports chair and sat down. Play it back again. Ning Zhehan: Oh, okay! There was a Godly Calculator beside him, leaving Little Ning a bit absent-minded as he watched the replay. On the other hand, Fu Li was very focused. He kept watching the mid-lane, and when he reached a certain spot, he pressed the pause button. Here, why did you retreat? Ning Zhehan thought back. At the time, I thought that I couldnt kill him Fu Li: And as a result? Little Ning: As a result, hed let VIVI go, allowing him to go to the bottom lane and mess up Lele. Fu Li didnt say anything and continued watching the game replay. There was another time where VIVI and Ning Zhehan had another close encounter. He once again pressed the pause button. Why did you attack here? Little Ning: Fu Li: You felt that you could kill him? Ning Zhehan sighed. I was reckless. In fact, that had been a trap that VIVI had been waiting for him to jump into. Not only had he not killed anyone, hed been killed instead. It was a training match that lasted over 40 minutes. Ning Zhehan and VIVI had many skirmishes. After all, they were both in the mid-lane, and fighting broke out there all the time. If Ning Zhehan and VIVI were on their own, the two of them were akin to an adult stringing up and beating up a child. VIVI clearly knew what Ning Zhehan was thinking, while Little Ning wasnt able to understand VIVI at all. The most important thing was that Little Ning was still trying to understand. This effort pushed him even further into a dead end. Fu Li started up a game room. Come on. Little Ning: ??? Fu Li: 1v1. Ning Zhehan: But this is the team map Fu Li glanced at him. Little Ning shivered and quickly hurried into the game. 1v1 could also be played in a 5v5 map. The system would automatically pair them with AI teammates to fill in the gaps. This kind of room was often used by regular players to train up talents. Professional players, who had a whole pile of accompanying players to pick from, wouldnt bother with this mode. Little Ning felt that this was very novel. And then, he was blasted to bits by Fu Li! Fu Li was obviously a VIVI-type mid-laner who was black bellied and could scheme against others. When it came to tricking little cubs, he could take down three on his own. He even used VIVIs routines to accurately ensnare Ning Zhehan. After a game, Little Ning grew even more disheartened. Hed already lacked confidence, and now, he had wilted even more. He even thought If Fu Li was FTWs mid-laner, then how good would it be How could he hide these kinds of small thoughts from Fu Li? Fu Li started up another room, but this time it was a pure solo game. Come. Ning Zhehan accepted the invitation. He was a little wilted. Fu Li wasnt the type of character who would coax others. If you dont want to fight, then forget it. You can find the rest of this content on the lightno?velpub.c?om platform. Ning Zhehan immediately perked up, scolding himself bloody in his heart. What was there to lose? Captain Fu had worked so hard to come and help, why was he still worrying about his dignity! Lets fight! Ning Zhehan sat up straight and stared carefully at the screen. This was a simple fight. The new 1v1 mode didnt require development, planning, or even an overall view of the game. They just had to go in and fight, fight, fight. And then Little Ning felt a burst of exaltation and fulfilment as he managed to smear Captain Fu all over the ground. In the face of such a contrast, Brother Ning felt great! He even wanted to do it a few more times. Fu Li didnt open up another room. Do you feel that youre shitty? Ning Zhehan shouted loudly, No! Laozi was badass! Hed killed Captain Fu seven times! Fu Li: Then why cant you beat me in 5v5? This one sentence turned Brother Ning into a withered eggplant that was half withered. Just um conscious operations Something like that. Fu Li opened up both video recordings at the same time, showing him their 5v5 and 1v1. Ning Zhehan wasnt clear about what he was doing, but he watched along with him and soon saw the problem There was no need for Fu Li to say more. He could feel it himself. He was very different in the 5v5 and 1v1. In the former, he always ended up getting all tied up, looking forward and backward, thinking about this and that and missing countless opportunities; in the latter, hed completely let himself go and showcased his abilities single-mindedly, leaving Fu Li unable to fight back. Fu Li saw that he understood and explained further, There is no perfect player. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Different strengths are suited for different teams, and their strengths arent any higher or lower than others. No matter which strength is taken to an extreme, theyre all very strong. Ning Zhehan had always been well-behaved. One of his strengths was his obedience. Being obedient definitely wasnt a bad thing, especially for a half-grown boy of his age. Being able to listen was definitely better than not listening at all. Little Ning didnt look down on Fu Li for losing just because hed won the domestic championship. He still respected him very much. It was this kind of unfaked, sincere feeling that had moved Fu Li and made him willing to help. This idea that Fu Li had given him was very valuable. Ning Zhehan was also a talented player; he was undoubtedly a genius. However, there were many geniuses in FTW, and they were talented in very exaggerated ways. Close and Quiet were too strong and sharp, meaning that they would inevitably overshadow their teammates. It would make others, and even their teammates, feel that they didnt have enough talent and need to work harder. But in fact When it came to mid-lane operations, Ning Zhehan had very few rivals. Even Moonlit, whose strength was his excellent operations, was on the same level as he was. This level of ability was why FTW had spent a lot of money to sign over this newcomer king. However, FTWs coaching team had always felt that Ning Zhehan was still young and needed to build up his experience, so they hadnt intervened in his problems much. Firstly, they were afraid of giving him pressure. Secondly, they were certain that these problems could only be polished with time. However, Fu Li had given Ning Zhehan a new idea that day. You cant outthink him, but cant you beat him? Fu Lis black eyes were calm behind his glasses. Ning Zhehan: ! Fu Li: Youre not even afraid of Quiet, what else is there to be afraid of. Ning Zhehan: !! Thats right, what did Little Ning, who soloed with Quiet all year around, have to be afraid of? When it came to pure operations, who could he even be afraid of? But Ning Zhehan still had concerns. If I just focus on killing him, I might still fall into a trap. Fu Li opened his mouth and said mercilessly, For better or worse, at least theres still half a chance of winning like that. Ning Zhehan was stunned. Fu Li pushed his chair back, moved his shoulders, stood up, and said, Think about it properly. There isnt much time. Fu Li left. Ning Zhehan sat there in a daze for a long time, then finally thought it through. For better or worse, at least there was half a chance of winning like that Dithering over things back and forth would end up releasing VIVI to go and provide all kinds of support to his team. Pestering him and fighting him directly was nothing more than life or death. It might be a trap or a feint. He had no way to accurately pinpoint it every time, so he might as well act a bit more recklessly. He would at least be right five times out of ten. This degree of success was much better than getting all ten times wrong! Fu Li had taken a bit of a gamble saying this to Ning Zhehan. But as hed said at the end, time was running out Even a 50 percent chance shouldnt be given up! It was often that kind of moment that would determine the outcome of a game. Chapter 244.2: In the first match, the battle of freedom, FTW scored a point! Just now, the fighting at the top lane had been in full swing. VIVIs radar was much sharper than Little Nings, and hed realized that if he didnt go up to provide support for this wave, it was very likely that their top-jungler combo would end up dead. Losing both players would create a disadvantage for L&P, who was in a relatively weaker situation. If they wanted to fight back, then they would have to kill Close and Quiet, and ensure that at least their captain or Old G remained alive. So, he had to go and provide support. His teleportation CD had just come off cooldown. VIVI immediately pressed on it, but unexpectedly, a chord fell down and landed on him. His casting had been interrupted. VIVI narrowed his eyes. Little Ning was cowering a little at this moment. It was over, it was over. He always had a feeling that he was about to be squeezed to death by the earth mage. What should he do, what should he do? Fu Lis calm voice sounded in his ear. You cant outthink him, but cant you beat him? It was as though the clear all button had been pressed. There was nothing left in Ning Zhehans brain. He didnt think, didnt try to guess., and didnt try to predict anything. Hed just fight and be done with it! Since his positioning would be seen through, and any plans he made could be counteredsince thinking too much would only shackle him, then he would just trust his instincts! Ning Zhehan was very clear about the earth mages skills. The first skill was a control skill, the second was a shock type skill, and the third was for burst damage. He was also very familiar with the terrain of the middle lane. He hid in the bushes for a half a second, and the ground beneath his feet shifted. The earth mages skills were about to fall into place. It didnt matter if it landed on his left or right. The important thing was that the positioning of the sound shock couldnt be off-center, and the important thing was that sacrifice had to deal the maximum amount of damage. What was even more important was that listening needed to strengthen his basic attack! VIVi originally hadnt thought too much about it. Pressing Little Ning to the ground and killing him off was a common occurrence. Although there was no way for him to support the top lane, killing off the zither warlock would also provide L&P with an advantage. So, he gave up on providing support and opened up a ground fissure in order to attack Ning Zhehan. This was a 1v1 fight, a mage solo in the middle lane of the canyon! Solo. FTWs inherited solo. Ning Zhehan was no longer afraid! It wasnt until the system announcement rang out, stating that Silvery had killed VIVI, that not only granny gray, but even VIVI himself was left stunned. In those few short seconds, hed felt a shocking pressure, an aura that made peoples scalp feel numb and a momentum that neither the heavens nor the earth could stop! What VIVI hadnt expected was that hed be suppressed by Ning Zhehans momentum. Hed been crushed by a little fuzz-haired brat. FTWs team chat was filled with joy. Brother Cai was excited. Little Ning, not bad, you played beautifully, badass! He praised Ning Zhehan so much that his face turned a little red. At this time, everyone from FTW had resurrected. When the shadow thief and blood thief rushed out of the fountain, Wei Xiaos lips curved up. Come on, lets win the game! This awesome opening in the game had to be followed through to the end! At the backstage guest seats, Fu Li had an almost imperceptible smile in his eyes. A retired veteran to his right, Chen Liang, said, This brat Ning Zhehan has some skills. Fu Li replied implicitly, Hes still tender. Chen Liang laughed out loud. Dont look down on those young generals. The future belongs to you young people. Who hadnt grown into maturity from immaturity? His tender immaturity also meant he had infinite possibilities. The entire FTW was providing an interpretation of their new team manifestoCC Like the scorching sun shining in the sky, giving off infinite glory! Under the stage, Chen Feng was more anxious and serious than anyone else. After everyone died in the top lane and Ning Zhehan killed VIVI, Chen Feng almost jumped up to his feet. Tang Chen was still smiling and laughing. Not bad, not bad. Theyd all grown up. The cubs had gradually learned to stand up on their own, and FTW was really getting there. Chen Feng exhaled lightly. A little reckless. Tang Chen: Its fine as long as they succeed. Chen Feng: If Wei Xiao hadnt killed VIVI once before, allowing his farm to start building up, then Little Ning wouldve sent himself off to die in this round. These two coaches from FTW were also old partners, one was pessimistic, while the other was optimistic. Tang Chen continued to smile. Isnt this what cooperation is? Chen Feng: Tang Chens words were really correct. There were prerequisites for Little Nings kill, but these prerequisites had already been created by Wei Xiao and even Close. Wasnt a good chain reaction the result of good teamwork?! Close had attracted their opponents firepower, and Wei Xiao had taken three kills. Ning Zhehan had seized the opportunity to solo and won, a result of both relying on his teammates and seizing opportunities for himself. Such tight cooperation that didnt require too much thinking was definitely the best type of tacit understanding within a team! This game had deviated from L&Ps plan. The top-jungler situation was tense as both parties attacked each other until nothing but scorched earth was left behind. L&P, who had originally been able to easily suppress the middle and bottom lane, gradually fell behind. When the one providing support from the middle lane changed from VIVI to Ning Zhehan, then the effects became quite different. Ning Zhehan didnt plan to go to the top lane at all. He ran straight to the bottom lane every time. L&Ps marksman AA was relatively invisible in the team. It wasnt that he was weak but that his teammates shone too brightly. At first, Yue Wenle and Bai Cai had been beaten flat by the opposite side, but Ning Zhehan had inspired them. When he arrived, it was three against two, and there was nothing to fear! There were flowers blooming in the mid-lane and the bottom lane. The key to victory in this game was the three little ones from FTW! The live broadcast studio was very emotional. FTW is growing very quickly. Its only been one season, but it seems like the newcomers have been hit with hormones, growing the whole way. The most important thing is their teams tacit understanding. Its quite different from how it was last year. Its not that Im a Close flatterer, but really, Close has changed a lot this year. Oh, I feel like I love him even more! Hell be my husband for my whole life! Finally under FTWs steady encroachment, L&P topped like a mountain and finally had their crystal pushed over. In the first match, the battle of freedom, FTW scored a point! Everyone in the audience cheered and clapped for a long time. This was a very iconic game that could be taken out and talked about even many years later. It was a new birth for FTW, showing their growth and progress. The battle of freedom. For freedom, for victory! The second match soon began. After Chen Feng came up on stage, he knocked them all down a notch. L&P wont be careless in the next match. Brother Cai: We wont be, either! Little Ning: Yeah! Chen Feng said solemnly, Stay steady. The three little ones calmed down slightly, but it was still hard for them to hide the excitement lurking between their eyebrows. Theyd won against L&P, won against the double dark combo. Theyd won against the year before lasts championship team and last years runner up team, the former Team of Gods! Even if it was just a small match, it was enough to make them so excited they couldnt help themselves. Compared with FTWs happy mood, L&Ps side was a bit quiet. Of course, theyd been very quiet during the last game as well. L&Ps coach stood behind Yuan Ze. The only sounds in their team chat was from the two of them talking. They discussed the line-up, tactics, and play. Yuan Ze had very good looking eyes. When he was acting frivolous, it was enough to make people blush, but when he was serious, they were calm and deep, like black jade in a deep pool of water. Double berserker? FTW wont let that out. The flying warrior or blood warrior, we have to take one of them. Yuan Ze stared at the screen and said, Space-time knight. Coach: Old G spoke quickly, If so, then we Yuan Ze: Take it. There was an uproar at the scene when L&P took the space-time knight. Tang Chen was still as happy as ever. Marshals space knight, hey As FTWs former top-laner and Yuan Zes substitute, Tang Chen knew Yuan Ze very well. Yuan Ze, who was fond of teaching others, wished he could be everyones teacher. Jungler, bottom lane, mid-lane. Other than support, hed taught all of them. Of course, he wouldnt skip Tang Chenchen. Although he was his substitute, Tang Chen had previously had almost no chance to play. Alright, then. Be a bit more confident and take out the almost. He hadnt had any chance to play. The reason why the Team of Gods had substitutes at all was due to the competition system at the time. They had to have a substitute for the globals. Otherwise, they wouldnt be allowed to participate. So, Tang Chen from the second team had been brought in as a substitute. Hed touched the world cup and gotten a ring to show for it, but he didnt belong in the Team of Gods. But later on Tang Chen had had a chance to play. At the time, FTW had just won the championship and hadnt yet split apart. It was an exhibition game and Yuan Ze said, Let Old Tang go and play a game for me. Their coach back then had frowned. Its just an exhibition game Yuan Ze: So what if its an exhibition game. The coach couldnt afford to provoke these guys and could only swallow down any unhappiness. Yuan Ze said to Tang Chen, Dont you play your space-time knight quite well? Tang Chen hadnt been as carefree as he was now and would still be nervous. But I I um Yuan Ze: What do you mean, um? Can you or cant you? Tang Chen: I can. Yuan Ze patted him on the shoulder. Go, then. Theyd naturally won the exhibition game. Tang Chens space-time knight had made everyones eyes grow bright. It was a very interesting style of play, even if it wasnt very suitable for the perfect Team of Gods. What no one else knew was that, later on, Yuan Ze had also studied the space-time knight for a long time. Tang Chen had asked him quietly, Why are you interested in the space-time knight? Yuan Zes reply had been irreverent. I occasionally want to support Little Lulu. The space-time knight tended towards support. It was an entry level top-jungler combo option. Chapter 245.1: A mystery that was never solved. editor: apricot Support Close? Tang Chen was stunned for a moment, but a stream of heat soon poured out of his heart, and he offered up his own services. I-I can tell you At the time, Brother Tang had still been part of the younger generation. Although he was brave, he was still nervous. Yuan Ze squinted at him. Are you going to teach me? Tang Chen: Yuan Ze: Wake up a bit. I taught you this talent. Brother Tang woke up. The space-time knight had indeed been something that Yuan Ze had taught Tang Chen. A professional player picking up a talent wasnt just limited to simply understanding its skills and moves. Many other aspects also had to be considered, such as game awareness, line-up matching, early and late stage plans, and so on. Although not every talent had its own line-up system, it was very important for a qualified player to be able to distinguish the differences between each talent within the same profession. There were many differences involved even for the top lane. Even if they were both DPS type talents, there would still be a slight difference. Only by grasping the subtleties of each talent would they be able to stand out from other experts among the crowd. Tang Chens space-time knight was played well and hed trained it a lot; Yuan Ze had almost never played the space-time knight and hadnt trained with it. But the latter player was really better than the former. Yuan Ze started complaining about it as soon as he picked it up. Can this kind of damage do anything except tickle other players? This basic attack C is it a shoulder and neck massage? This control C the range marker is so wide, but its so slow to start up. Only the blind cant escape it, right? The hero he was best at was being disdained like this. Tang Chen: He wanted to argue, but couldnt figure out where to start. Although these words were ugly, they were reasonable and made sense coming from Yuan Zes mouth. The space-time knights damage was really inferior to that of DPS talents like the berserker warrior and the blood warrior. The damage from its basic attack couldnt be compared with the death knight daddy who could deal 3800 damage with a strengthened critical hit, and as for its control skill Brother Tang had also complained about it before. The range marker was too large, and it took almost 0.2 seconds to start up. How blind would their opponent have to be to miss it? Casual players reaction here: Offence taken! However, the space-time knights biggest bug was his ultimate move. As long as the space-time knight had its ultimate move mechanism, then it was absolutely valuable. Yuan Ze cursed the space knight from head to tail, but he didnt mention the ultimate move at all. Strong was strong. If it was used well, then it could reverse heaven and earth. This was also why he was training with the talent. Later on, the Team of Gods fell apart. Let alone being teammates; they werent even in the same competition zone. Yuan Zes space knight naturally never had an opportunity to be taken out and used. And it was also later that Tang Chen used the space knight to support Close again and again. Whenever he tried to turn the tide and avoid defeat, he would think to himself, If it was Yuan Ze using the space-time knight, how would he do it? Unfortunately, this was a mystery that was never solved. No one would ever know how far Close couldve gone with Yuan Zes space-time knight. No one would ever know whether Yuan Zes space-time knight would be able to let Close return to the state he was in two seconds ago after brushing out nine light arcs, so that he could brush out another set. And no one would ever know whether Yuan Ze had wanted to break the Team of Gods tabooCCaccompanying Close to the doubles competition. The space-time knight could reverse time. But Yuan Ze couldnt. When hearing that he wanted to take the space knight, the most excited one was Old G. Ah! What a pity, FTW banned the shadow thief QAQ! He could even convey an expression pack when speaking, really worthy of being Old G, a little language genius. In full-game BP mode, any talent that had been used before couldnt be used again, and any talent that was banned couldnt be banned again. Before the start of a new match, the system would provide BP data for the previous match, and these talents couldnt be selected for the next match. However, the battle of freedom was a special case and wasnt included in this. Although Old G had used the shadow thief, hed used it during the battle of freedom and it didnt count. It was just that FTW had banned it for this match, and from how regretful he seemed, it was evident that he had a routine with Yuan Zes space knight. Yuan Ze: Take the berserker thief first. At present, the berserker thief was indisputably one of the strongest jungler talents. They had first pick in this match and could snatch it up first. At the very least, they wouldnt lose out in the jungler position. The coach thought that way too, but he was also worried. When it comes to DPS Reasonably speaking, DPS should come from the mid-lane and bottom lane, and at most, the jungler would supplement some damage, but in L&P, Yuan Ze held up half the heavens. Although he was on the top lane, he was still an important DPS dealer. If he played the space-time knight, then there wouldnt be enough DPS, and secondly, it wouldnt be easy for him to cut to the back row. It would make things quite difficult. VIVI muttered, Ill take the demonic mage. This baby-faced, smiling tigers voice was very low. It was enough to show how angry President V was about being bullied by Little Ning in the last match. The back waves beat down the front waves, and the front waves had gotten very angry! If he didnt mess with him in this game, then granny grays tail would fly all the way up to the heavens. The coach thought about it. Okay. AA also took a talent that had strong DPS in the late stages. L&P was using a standard Glory line-up this time, but it wasnt their own regular line-up. After the BP ended, the commentators and audience were surprised to see the results of the BP. Yuan Ze was using the space-time knight? What kind of routine was this! The last person to pick in L&P took the space knight. At that moment, everyone thought, Mo should be using the space knight to play support. Interesting, interesting. Very quickly, it turned toCC Thats not right! theres already a holy priest in the line-up So thenCC Holy shit, is Scum Man Yuan using the space-time knight! The scrolling comments exploded. Some were confused, some curious, but most of them were quietly happy. Of course, there were also haters and trolls who tried to tilt the atmosphere with dark self-indulgence. How much money did FTW give? Ill pay double to buy L&P. Cant they play the game properly! What kind of under the table deal is this? L&P is clearly just taking it easy; cant they be a bit less shameless! The conversation in FTWs team chat was also dumbfounded. Wei Xiao: The old bandit has another trick! Ning Zhehan: Has Captain Yuan used this before during training matches? Bai Caicai: L&P actually knows how to double support Only Lu Feng and Chen Feng remained silent. Lu Feng would remain silent even if the sky was about to collapse. Oh, except for when he was dealing with Wei Little Xiao, who could be worse than the sky collapsing when he started messing around. Chen Feng was silent because he felt like his heart had been stabbed with a knife. He had a close relationship with Tang Chen, especially during those most difficult years. Theyd supported each other and comforted each other, forcibly holding on and toughing it out. Looking at the empty FTW and the lonely Close, the passionate, hot-headed Chen Feng had cursed the stupid management to death. He didnt feel satisfied with just scolding them and had continued on to curse the guys whod left. Yuan Ze, as the one with the snarkiest mouth, had been hit the hardest. At first, Tang Chen hadnt said anything. He felt that saying anything would be useless and would only increase the sadness he felt. However, he couldnt hold back when he heard Chen Feng scold Yuan Ze like this, so hed spoken upCC Hed heard that Yuan Ze had been secretly practicing the space knight. Hed heard that Yuan Ze had wanted to cooperate with Close. Hed heard that Yuan Ze may have wanted to play doubles Chen Feng was so distressed that he was all a mess. Damn it. It wasnt clear who he was cursing this time. At this time, when Chen Feng saw Yuan Zes space-time knight, the feeling of bitterness in his heart was almost the same as being poured a bowl of bitter melon juice. The talent hed practiced in order to cooperate with Close was now on the other side across from them. The tip of his tongue tasted f*cking bitter. Of course, Chen Feng wouldnt say anything about it at this time, even if he heard Wei Xiaos next sentence. Teacher Yuan has a real true love relationship with Old G, hey? Such a powerful man had actually taken a functional support for the top lane. Not only was he putting his trust in the jungler, he was also entrusting him with his dignity. The dignity of victory. Chen Feng kept silent. He couldnt answer, couldnt explain, and couldnt speak. As of now, words were pale and powerless, and they could only stride forward. Winning the game was their only option. The line-up on FTWs side was more conventional. Close had taken the blood warrior, while Wei Xiao was using the immortal thief. Little Ning looked at his own jumping and bouncing fire mage and felt a little flustered. I feel like Im going to get screwed over by the demonic mage. Bai Caicai: His comments were changing color from proximity to Wei Xiao! Little Ning, dont forget your own ID! You can find the rest of this content on the lightno?velpub.c?om platform. From the perspective of their line-ups, FTW seemed to have a more dominant start in this game. Their line-up was commendable in all aspects, and there was nothing unexpected. Could it be that FTW was going to get a 2:0 score? Could it be that these two teams had really done a XX under the table deal? Could it be that L&P was really going to be flamed like dogs back in North America? Of course not. At the start, L&P didnt hesitate to invade the other sides jungle zone, heading straight into FTWs top jungler zone. Wei Xiao couldnt see anything and his teammates hadnt even reached their lanes yet, but he could sense that something was off. Captain! Lu Feng glanced at the minimap and said, Hit the wolf creep first. Wei Xiao: Okay! If the top lane went into the other sides jungle, then the wolf creep was the one that was particularly easy to snatch away. The blue buff had a lot of health, and if they wanted to quietly break the other sides rhythm, then the wolf creep was a good choice. Lu Fengs judgement was based on the fact that Yuan Zes space knight only had average combat capability in the early stages. If he went into the other sides jungle, they likely wouldnt be greedy and go for a buff daddy. Close had indeed been right. Wei Xiao killed a wolf creep, and when he was attacking the remaining two, the other side exposed themselves. The berserker thief and space knight had arrived Close sent out a blood spike. From the sound of the effects, it had hit! The audience who had gods perspective could see it clearly. It hit, it hit! Theres a blood seal hanging over Yuan Zes skull! Hit him, hit him, Close, kill him! The trolls continued to mess with the world. Look, I already said there was an under the table transaction. Yuan Zes clearly just acting. Does he want to enter the entertainment industry? Close had indeed hit the space-time knight with his blood spike, and there was a blood mark hanging over him. After getting caught by the blood mark, the blood warriors continued attacks would cause sustained loss of health. This was the start to the blood warriors combo. Of course, the blood warrior was still level one, so there was no combo even if hed wanted to continue. Yuan Ze wasnt flustered or in a hurry. He sported the mark over his head and continued walking forward, showing no intention to retreat at all. Old G was very moved. Captain~~~ His captain was very kind, helping him block out the wind, rain, and any blood marks as well. Yuan Zes reply was ruthless. Get lost. If you dont have a crisp, young voice, then dont f*cking use this kind of cavity inducing tone, okay? Wait what young voice? F*ck! Since theyd already exposed themselves, then there was no need to try and sneak attack the wolf creep. Gary went straight for the blue daddy with his scythe in hand. How could Wei Xiao let him steal the blue buff? As everyone knew, the immortal thief was like an immortal when they had mana, and they turned into a salted fish without mana. Wei Xiao had no plans to be a salted fish vegetable, so how could he let other people get his blue buff? So, did they start fighting? They started fighting! L&P had lost the first match and had taken such a surprising line-up in the second match, but they seemed to be braver than before. Chapter 245.2: Did you ask the great demon king’s blade for permission? editor: apricot The blood warrior had only unlocked his blood spike. The immortal thief had only unlocked a two segment movement skill. The space-time knight only had a ground mine. The berserker thief had gone for his second skill, but unfortunately he hadnt yet dared to release his scythe. It was unknown what he was planning. Four top players and four powerful talents. At this moment, they were all only at level one and most only had one skill. They were like baby tigers who were still in kindergarten. They were fierce enough, but their momentum was too soft. Their back and forth exchanges were like primary school students fighting. Oh this was an insult to primary school students. Primary school students had glorious grades, okay! The blood warriors spike hit the space knight time and time again. The immortal thief evaded the berserker thiefs basic attack time and time again. The space-time knights earth mine hit nothing time and time again. The berserker thief was still waiting, waiting and waiting to release his scythe In fact this only took ten seconds, but it gave people an illusion that theyd been fighting for a century. Of course, the audience loved to watch this kind of thing, and they wanted to watch, but Old G, what the hell are you doing! Did you forget that you unlocked your second skill? Why was he holding onto his scythe and not letting go? Fight! Finally When the space-time knight tossed out an earth mine toward the immortal thief, Wei Xiao dodged it using flexible movements. At this time, the berserker thiefs scythe shot forth. The scythe that hed held onto for half a century finally moved! How well did Wei Xiao understand the berserker thief? He understood them so well that he could get a pentakill with his eyes closed. As soon as he saw the hand gesture, he knew that the scythe was coming The immortal thief who had two segments of movement at the start of the game had the advantage and could easily dodge away, but That wasnt right! Wei Xiaos pupils contracted as he realized the problem. The blue buff!! The scythe was headed for the blue buff! Old G had always had an ulterior motive. From the beginning to the end, he hadnt any plan to kill the level one immortal thief who couldnt even deal damage. He just wanted to take the blue buff. However, Wei Xiao didnt lose hope, thinking he could wait until the last second and snatch back the blue buff. Gary was also calculating the same thing. Based on the two players understanding of the blue buffs health, they would be able to grasp a level of accuracy that was within one or two drops of health Wei Xiao, who was slightly further away and whose skills were on cooldown, was just a tiny bit late. Gary easily took away the blue buff and turned to run away. This bastard had come looking exactly like hed wanted to fight, giving off an ambitious intent of taking away a double kill, yet as a result, he just went for the blue buff and slipped away! Wei Xiao was going to explode on the spot! Lu Feng: Its fine. Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. Mm It really was fine. Although losing the blue buff would affect the immortal thiefs jungle clearing rhythm, he definitely wouldnt let Gary control his blue buff forever. This so-called controlling the blue buff meant calculating the refresh time for the blue buff daddy. When the blue buff disappeared from their bodies, they would immediately come for the blue buff again. In this way, if they managed to control it well, then the immortal thief would be left without a blue buff throughout the entire game. An immortal thief without the blue buff would have their combat power reduced by half. Would Wei Xiao sit there and wait to die? No way! When the blood warrior fought against the space knight, the space knight could only shrink back. Lu Feng didnt rush to go back up to the top lane. He first helped Wei Xiao clear out his jungle, not taking any experience and supporting the immortal thief whod lost his blue buff. Wei Xiaos heart was sweet. Captain, youre so nice~ Lu Feng: Bai Cai: Everyone, Wei Little Xiao, who didnt take Glorys Mic Explosion King seriously on a daily basis! Things remained calm for about two minutes. Although FTW had lost their blue buff, they werent in a panic because Wei Xiao soon rushed over to the other sides red buff zone and stole away the three stone men. He was a bit distressed about losing the buff, but hed at least managed to recover some experience and gold. With Closes help, the immortal thief was in good shape by the time he started ganking. Regardless of what talent Yuan Ze had taken, Gary would definitely go to the top lane for the first wave of attacks. The space knight had no way to hold down the blood warrior. If Gary didnt go and help, then the space-time knight would lose lane soldiers until it was left helpless. Wei Xiao wanted to go to the top lane, too. However, Lu Feng said, No need. Wei Xiao understood what Lu Feng meant. He could hold off Yuan Ze and Gary on his own, creating an opportunity for Wei Xiao to regain his initiative with the blue buff. Wei Xiao glanced at the minimap and thought about the strength of the space-time knight prior to level six. He didnt think that it would be problematic. Okay, Ill get the blue buff first. Lu Feng: Mm. In fact, what Glorys Mic Explosion King should focus on cutting was this conversation. While others wouldnt understand their conversation, Wei Xiao could always read Lu Fengs mind and understood everything even if Lu Feng didnt say it clearly. Compared with some flashy words, this kind of unique tacit understanding was even more amazing. In the top lane, Garys scythe had missed its mark, but he didnt panic. Instead, he walked forward and tried to fight with Lu Feng through basic attacks. Reasonably speaking, the berserker thief trying to win with basic attacks against the blood warrior (even before reaching level six) was a little ambitious, but that didnt take into consideration the space knight behind him. Yuan Ze had complained about all of the space-time knights skills prior to reaching level six, but he could use them very well. The first skill, earth mine, was chaotically accurate. It was just that Lu Fengs reaction speed was shocking, and he could forcibly avoid it through keeping an eye out for the skill indicator. The second skill was actually very interesting. It was a strange type of shield. By default, it would give friendly forces a significant increase in defense, but it could be quickly switched to a damage reflect type shield. In other words, this shield had two effects when it was used. One effect was for protecting teammates, and the other was for using teammates as bait to lure the enemy. How it was operated depended on the space-time knights judgement. The third skill was a super ranged movement skill, and it was also the core skill for a space-time knight in the top lane due to its high support capability. Its ultimate move, time reversal, allowed teammates to return to the state theyd been in two seconds ago. No matter what state they were in two seconds ago, it would revert back. It could bring the dead back to life, reset skill cooldowns, and even clear away buffs Of course, professional players wouldnt make such low-level mistakes. The space-time knight, who only had two skills, could also play them to maximal effect. Block damage, take the brunt of skills, and make use of his high defense to look for opportunities for the berserker thief. At the same time, he accurately tossed out his earth mines. When it came to accuracy, it wasnt that he was trying to hit Close, but rather, planning the misses to affect Closes pathing. He clearly knew that he couldnt hit Close, and it would be a waste of time to keep trying. It was better to do the opposite and force Close to move where he wanted with the mines. Either get hit by the mine or step into Garys attack range. It was a two against one fight in the top lane, which made the audience excited as they watched, but it made Chen Fengs heart distressed to watch. Many things were unimaginable. For example, he could never imagine that Yuan Ze, who was absolutely self-centered, would support a jungler. He couldnt have imagined that Yuan Ze would use the space-time knight so well. Furthermore, he couldnt imagine if Gary in this scenario had been Close instead Garys play style had always been similar to that of Close. Gary: Wei Xiaos blue buff is out. He pinpointed the time. Yuan Ze glanced at the situation. Suppress Close. Wei Xiao had to be working on the blue buff. Instead of going there and taking a risk, it was better to pressure the blood warrior and draw Wei Xiao over to provide support. Would Little Lunatic Wei just watch as his captain died in the top lane? Wei Xiao was really worried. He picked up his pace as he attacked the blue buff. Close was dealing with the two people on the top lane, but he also kept an eye on the health of the blue buff daddy. When he was down to the last hit, Lu Feng said, Come get the red. As soon as these words came out, Little Ning, who was chatting with President V, and Yue Wenle and Caicai, who were trading blows, all paused for a moment. Red buff? The top-jungler zone was all about the blue buff. Where did the red buff come from? And he told him to come get it? Wei Xiao understood instantly. The corner of his lips curved up, and he smiled like a little fox. Kay. He pressed the transmission button and landed just when the blood warrior attacked, sending a blood cut out towards the berserker thief! This sudden 2v2 not only made Old G jump, but even the audience was stunned for a moment. How fierce! Exciting, exciting, the little lunatic couldnt stand it and came to help the great demon king fight back! The situation changed faster than the scrolling comments. Gary tossed out his scythe and hit Close! However, he hesitated slightly at this junction. Should he pull the great demon king over? Was this really not a trap? The space-time knights shield landed on Garys body. There was no need for words. Gary pulled in his scythe, bringing the blood warrior daddy to him. The scythe and blood spike shot out at the same time, special effects rising up as black gas and blood mist roiled around the two people, almost blocking out their figures. Yuan Ze: DPS. He used only one shield, but switched it back and forth seamlessly to ensure that Gary was in defensive mode when Close used his skills and that damage reflect was on when Close attacked. Damage reflect was most effective when the other person was being attacked with basic attacks. This wave of micro manipulation by Yuan Ze gave full play to the breadth of space-time knight. Those who had scolded him, hated on him, and spurned him for not treating the game seriously all shut up at this moment. This space-time knight Was aiming for the championship skin! Seeing Closes health plummet so suddenly, the immortal thief charged right in front of the berserker thief. The blood warrior ignored the space-time knight, taking the damage from his mine and resisting his damage reflect to mercilessly send out a blood cut. He took heavy damage while also dealing a serious blow to the berserker thief. The immortal thief drew up a prison, landing four attacks in a row to send Gary, who was at half health, back home. If the audience could hear the team chat, they would understand why it was come get the red. Because Gary had a red buff on him. Buffs could be transferred. If you killed an enemy, you would gain their buffs. Old G had just stolen the immortal thiefs blue daddy at the start of the game, but he had to pay for it using his own head as well as the red buff daddy that hed gotten for himself! You want to control Wei Little Xiaos blue buff? Did you ask the great demon kings blade for permission? Chapter 246.1: Captain, I love you to death! editor: apricot After getting the red and blue buffs, the jungler king became happy and opened his mouth, saying, Captain, I love you to death! Acting spoiled, acting cute, he did it all. Wei Little Xiaos sweetness came online right on time. Everyone in FTW remained composed. Bai Cai, whod seen all sorts of storms and waves, was completely calm. When it came to Glorys Mic Explosion King, coming out of the closet in public, subverting peoples outlooks on life That was overthinking it! Just look at the calm Little Ning, then look at the even calmer Yue Lele. Who would take Wei Xiaos coquettish words seriously? Oh, someone would. The great demon king would take it seriously. The only one in the world, the exclusive one, a customized special version. When faced with tons of dog food, the clueless Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had a natural immunity. The clued in Bai Cai had already eaten so much of it that hed abandoned himself. What else could he do? Brother Cai rolled his eyes: Hed just eat it; it wasnt like he could get fat on it, anyway. Gary had been killed, and there wasnt much Yuan Ze could do. He couldnt use a space-time knight to control a great and small demon king prior to level six. It wasnt that Marshal was cowering, but that he was calm, wise, and had an eye on the big picture. For men, they would quit as soon as they decided to quit. It hurt quite a bit to get bitten by the little lunatic. The live broadcast audience had originally started praising Yuan Ze, thinking that he had some skills and was using the space-time knight well. They admitted that he wasnt an Oscars winning actor and wasnt trying to deliberately lose to FTW. But now, they changed perspectives again. The haters and flamers acted like theyd been recharged with energy and swarmed out, starting to chatter onCC Like I said, the space knights no good. Taking a support type talent without a supports way of thinking, is Marshal having a fun time acting? Im laughing. As a support type top-laner, he didnt go up to take damage or send himself up to die. Instead, he let his core DPS die miserably under a double attack. Yuan Ze, is your way of thinking taking a turn for the worse? People with a self-focused consciousness shouldnt try this talent, okay? Is it that there arent enough DPS type warrior talents or DPS style paladins? Please let the space knight off the hook. He even dares to use the space knight. Scum Man Yuan might be better off trying to be a flight attendant. Dont disgrace flight attendants. We dont only look at faces, thank you! The scrolling comments swept by happily and were even filled with gloating. They were hoping Yuan Ze would mess up and that L&P would be violently beaten up. The commentators were very impartial, especially Eurostar. Theyd never fought head on with L&P, but they knew a lot about them since they were a team who played very similarly to FTW. They often reviewed their games as example games. So, Eurostar was very clear about Yuan Zes play style. Self-centered, strong, uncompromising. He really was strong, living up to his name as the solo king. It was also true that he was self-centered. This was a common problem in the Team of Gods. However, Yuan Zes teammates had learned to adapt to him after training and had enough ability to keep up with him. There was no problem with their top-jungler linkage, and there was no problem with their mid and bottom lanes. In the later stages, they each carried out their own duties during team fights. L&P was a team that was formed with Yuan Ze as its soul. It wasnt on purpose, but Yuan Zes natural aura had formed the current L&P. Only when one understood Yuan Zes temperament and L&Ps play method would one know how much hed paid out in order to use the space-time knight so well. Since ancient times, there had been a saying that rivers and mountains changed easily, but human nature was difficult to change. Suppressing Yuan Zes original nature wasnt easy. Eurostar: Although Gary was killed in the top lane, Marshal has already done all he could. Hes not yet reached level six, and his time and space reversal skill hasnt been unlocked. The only shield he had was unavailable because it was on cooldown from the battle with Close, while his earth mines couldnt cause enough damage. Even if he knew Quiet was coming, Gary couldnt withdraw from the position he was in, and hed already managed to limit the losses for his team by withdrawing in time. Normally, Eurostar wouldnt say so much. This was called inflating other peoples egos before destroying their prestige and would result in him getting flamed in the live broadcast room. However, Cowardly Baby Euro didnt back down. He trembled in the canyon but was angry and snappy on Weibo. With alt accounts in hand, he would act righteously fearless saying things like: Its nothing much, I just want to preach and talk some reason with those who curse my teammates o(**)o. Later on, he directly used his main account instead cough. The commentator picked up on Eurostars words and also gave a pertinent evaluation of Yuan Zes operations. The audience in the live broadcast room felt great. They included the commentators in their flaming. The elated Little Lunatic Wei had already started to go crazy in the canyon, quickly clearing out the jungle zone. After confirming the vision, he rushed into L&Ps jungle zone and swept through it recklessly. Old G, come to the top lane. If the two of you are able to kill the great demon king before level 6, then FTW will directly admit defeat! Wei Xiao took advantage of the fact that the space time knight hadnt yet been fully unleashed to burn, kill, and loot the whole way. He took over the jungle zone, helped his teammates gain the advantage in their lanes, and as for kills oh, President V and President A were always too clever and he couldnt catch them. But that was fine. Getting Little Ning and Yue Wenles farm higher than their counterparts was already a small step towards success! They watched as FTWs rhythm flew up, while L&P became more and more passive. platform. The domestic audience was in high spirits while the foreign audience cursed. The objective evaluations that came from the wise, rational fans were soon drowned out, and no one paid attention to them. If the director aimed the camera through the coach seating, then everyone would discover that Chen Fengs expression was very solemn. His eyebrows were drawn together, his fingers were interlaced and his lips were pressed together tightly. Although he wasnt biting his nails out of habit, the degree of tension he showed was no less than that of any of the earlier games. FTW had the advantage, but the advantage that FTW had established wouldnt be enough for them to cope with L&P when they reached level 6. That made sense The timing of this advantage was too brief, and there were too few things that could be done. Wei Xiao had worked very hard to snatch up control of the early stage, but no matter how hard he tried, the skills that would eventually be unlocked were still bound to be unlocked. Wei Xiao soloed the first silver dragon, and everyone in FTW reached level 6. At this time, everyone in L&P except for their support Mo had reached level 5. Old G was just about to reach level 6. Bai Cai sensed something from the bottom lane. Theyre starting on the golden dragon! The first golden dragon was actually very easy to kill. Wei Xiao had gone for the silver dragon due to the terrain; the silver dragon pit was advantageous for FTW. After taking it down, their entire team would gain a lot, and he could rush to the golden dragon pit after everyone was level 6. If L&P wasnt there when they arrived, then they could get double dragons and fill up their coffers. If L&P was there, then they would have a suppression group battle. With everyone at level 6, they could hammer L&P until they went into seclusion. Wei Xiaos thoughts were very good, and Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle also began to make their way to the golden dragon pit to set up. In this game, the golden dragon was closer to the bottom lane. Because the dragon pit faced the other side, FTW didnt have good vision there. Brother Cai was only able to notice something so early because he was paying close attention. Unfortunately, when he saw L&P, L&P noticed him as well. So, L&P knew that FTW would come, but did they withdraw? No! The audience watched on nervously. Did L&P not see Bai Cai? Impossible. Hed exposed himself so much; is everyone from L&P blind? Then why arent they withdrawing? Are they waiting for Wei to come and stir things up? L&P isnt that stupid. Gary and President V are keeping their skills on standby. They even want to counterattack? With this kind of level difference, the four people from FTW have fifteen skills. Only Old G is level six, how the hell are they going to fight! F*ck! They really started fighting! FTW came over to surround them. Bai Cai started up the fight first, and the four from L&P didnt show any intention of hiding at all. They started fighting right away. They were indeed fighting the dragon, and they really did want the golden dragon, but they werent planning to avoid war! Theyd kept all their skills on standby, their nerves tight. They were just waiting for FTW to attack! p;P is going to explode on the spot F*ck, the space-time knight! Yuan Ze reached level six! So what? His and Closes transmissions are both on cooldown. He cant possibly arrive in time. Damn it, I knew early on that the space knight could traverse half the map, but I didnt expect that he could go from the top dragon pit to the bottom dragon pit by adding a flash! This is too exaggerated. The blood warrior is a slow moving talent, and he doesnt have his major movement skill. Its impossible for him to come down and provide support. But the question is What can Yuan Ze do even if he comes to support? Can he harvest kills as a space-time knight? The immortal thiefs brushing out skills! Wei Xiao had already received the news from Lu Feng. Hed given a signal as soon as Yuan Ze disappeared. It was impossible for Lu Feng to go over to provide support, but based on exercising their level six suppression abilities against level fives, the four from FTW wouldnt necessarily lose in a four against five fight. Besides, Yuan Ze was gone, leaving the top lane empty. Lu Feng could take this opportunity to push his tower, and their gains would be far greater that way than having him come to the dragon pit. After weighing the pros and cons, FTW had come to the best solution. As for L&P? Wei Xiao was absolutely an intuitive creature. His intuition was more reliable than his rational analysis. He always felt that something was off and that something wasnt quite right. FTW obviously had a great advantage, and the victory rate for this team fight was 70%, but he still felt uneasy. He couldnt pinpoint it in words and could only say that based on his recognition of Yuan Zes strength, L&P wouldnt play a team fight where they would obviously collapse. Coincidentally, Brother Cais control skill landed on AAs head. This opportunity left no room for Wei Xiaos thoughts. His skills moved faster than his brain, and he darted forward, drawing a prison on the ground. His ten thousand swords stacked up quickly, and he landed full damage on AAs head. He would definitely die! Even without the fireball damage that Ning Zhehan stacked on, President A was done for. This time, L&P had chosen the giant shaman for support. It was tanky enough and had enough control, but it had no ability to restore health. It didnt even have a shield. Of course, it was useless even if there was a shield. Unless the talent was a real tank that could save ones life, any ability to tank would be nothing but air under this kind of explosive damage. System AnnouncementCC FTW.Quiet killed L&P.AA. You can find the rest of this content on the lightno?velpub.c-om platform. FTW.Quiet killed L&P.VIVI. Chapter 246.2: A very light ticking sound could be heard. editor: apricot Wei Xiao double kill! The bulk of his damage had landed on AA, but Yue Wenles combo had been aimed at VIVI. The weak mage who didnt yet have his ultimate move was sent home after shooting out three beams. Wonderful! Commentator Brother Mouth spoke quickly: FTW cooperated perfectly in this wave. Bai Cai started up the fight, accurately bypassing Mo to control AA. Wei Xiao is worthy of being an old teammate of his, and his damage was on point. The two of them reacted so quickly that it was as though they started at the same time. On the other side, Yue Wenle was calm and silent, his flying arrows stabbing at VIVI. Although VIVI was able to deal a huge amount of damage before he died, scraping away Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenles health, it was FTW who won a double kill first. Only Mo and Gary are left alive from L&P, and two fists cant beat four hands. They The commentators couldnt keep up with the speed at which the situation changed. The swarm of people whod originally been killed by FTW suddenly turned into a counter attack in the next second! Two of his teammates were dead, but Gary didnt show the slightest intention of shrinking back. He locked onto Ning Zhehan with a scythe, then used a basic attack to take away the fire mages remaining health. After killing, his passive ability was triggered, and the berserker thief who entered a berserk state was like a bloody phoenix, burning up everything in his path. Another scythe went out. Yue Wenle shifted positions, and Bai Cai gritted his teeth to step forward, taking the hit for him. The berserker thief didnt hesitate and pulled Bai Cai over, beating him to half health. Bai Cais heart pounded like crazy. F*ck him! He didnt really need to speak. Yue Wenle and Wei Xiao had already focused their fire on Gary. Mo used his physical body to block the damage for Gary. He was already at half health, but he still found an opportunity to control Yue Wenle. Brother Cai was also no longer the salted fish hed been in the past. Although he was being passively beaten up, he wouldnt miss any opportunities. He used his own control skill and landed it on Garys head. Although the skill hadnt yet gone out, Wei Xiao could already see the results. Not bad, Old Bai. The skill would definitely land. Gary was done for! And almost at exactly the same time, Wei Xiao tossed out all the damage he could deal in Garys face the moment Gary was locked into place. They watched as Garys health bar dropped like a roller coaster, but then a very light ticking sound could be heard. Wei Xiao: ! Bai Cai heard it too. F*ck, the space-time prophecy! That ticking sound was the sound of time, the sound of a stopwatch moving from zero to one, and it was a crucial second. The space-time knight had reached level six! Hed managed to rush to the dragon pit at the very last second and given his space-time prophecy to Gary! The space-time knights ultimate moveCCspace-time prophecy. To explain, this skill had two effects. One effect was that it allowed players to turn back time to two seconds ago. It was targeted at skill cooldowns. For skills that had already been used which were on cooldowns for over ten or even dozens of seconds, as long as time was turned back, they could be reused immediately. The other effect was that it would return a players health back to how it had been one second ago. If it was used well, it was like bringing the dead back to life. These two effects needed different trigger mechanisms. The reason why the space-time knight was always left on the bench was that this mechanism was too difficult to control. No matter how strong the skill was, professional teams would consider it very weak as long as its stability wasnt good enough. The high yield was accompanied by high risk, and gambling for one or two seconds was fatal in a rapidly changing battlefield. Obviously, Yuan Ze had it under control. He arrived as fast as he could and triggered the health recovery mechanism, putting it into play just one second before Gary fell to the ground. If hed been just a little earlier or later, then it wouldnt have been effective at all. Gary, whose health had fallen abruptly due to the burst of damage, resurrected on the spot! He didnt need his skills to go back in time. The berserker thief in its berserk state already had cooldowns that were almost nothing. The scythe danced, and locked onto the immortal thiefs throat. Wei Xiao sucked in a breath. Old Yue, run! Anyone who managed to survive was better than none. Each life was worth something. Brother Cai quickly gave Wei Xiao a shield, attempting to save him. Wei Xiao felt his body go cold when he saw the shield on his body, but he didnt say anything. Hed always known where Brother Cais problems lay, but this wasnt something that could be changed. Or, it should be said that there was no need to change it. In emergency situations, Bai Cai would only believe in him. At the most dangerous point, his instinct was stronger than his mind, and he would first attempt to protect Wei Xiao. There were disadvantages to this. For example, it was absolutely impossible for Wei Xiao to live at this time, so Bai Cai had given out his skills for nothing. It was better to give them to Yue Wenle. There were also advantages. Why did Brother Cai protect Wei Xiao so carefully? Why did they have such tacit understanding in their jungler support linkage? Why was their combined rhythm so strong? It was because of this belief. There were advantages and disadvantages, but the advantages generally outweighed the disadvantages. There was no absolute beauty in the world. Gary killed Wei Xiao and locked his next scythe onto Bai Cai. Brother Cai let out a breath of relief. At least theyd saved Yue Wenle. But then Yue Wenle: F*ck! Hed managed to pull away from Gary while seriously injured and close to death. Originally, hed thought that he could survive. Unexpectedly, a countdown appeared above his headCCthe countdown mine. Yuan Ze had managed to hang a mine on his head at some unknown point in time! The mine exploded two seconds later. Even if Yue Wenle had left the center of the battle, he still had no way to escape this damage. Two seconds wasnt enough time for him to return to the fountain. Two seconds wasnt even enough for him to suck some health back from the lane soldiers. Two seconds wasnt enough for his recovery skill to come off cooldown. Two seconds L&P.Gary killed FTW.Quiet! L&P.Gary killed FTW.White! L&P.Marshal killed FTW.Le! In a group fight where FTW would definitely win, this one second was enough to destroy their entire army! At this moment, the audience held their breath and stared at the space time knight and berserker thief on the field like they had just seen something absurd. What kind of bugged skill was this? What kind of out of control group fight was this! How had he managed to send out his space time reversal? When had the countdown mine ended up on Leles head? How did Old G get a double kill! The only good thing was that Lu Feng had managed to take down the top lanes first defense tower, giving FTW a small advantage. Garys transmission skill was now off cooldown. He directly went to the top lanes second tower and cleared out the lane. Seeing that their resurrection timers were almost finished, Lu Feng didnt try to rush forward any further and stopped while he was still ahead. L&P, whod been under pressure, was now on the rise. The space-time knight that had reached level six had become the most difficult existence to deal with in the whole arena. Bai Cai gnashed his teeth. One ultimate move every thirty seconds, is that even logical! Ning Zhehan: Hehe can also backtrack his own skills QAQ! Although the countdown mine cooldown was short, the cooldown time for the second and third skills were very long. Using backtracking on himself was really overboard. Theyd only just blasted through his shields when hed gotten another one, and theyd just seen him on the bottom lane when he showed up again in the mid-lane. No one had ever thought that a support talent could be used so so flashily! Other than this word, everyone couldnt think of any other adjectives! With the space-time knight driving the pace, Gary wasnt the only one who benefitted. President V and President A whod been beaten up by these younger brothers in the earlier match were also on the rise. This was especially true for VIVI. This smiling tiger took very good care of granny gray, and the arcs of his beams almost always located the small fire mage. Two beams, three, four Little Ning was about to cry. Does he have to use six beams to kill me! Do I deserve it! Obviously, he deserved it. He deserved to be killed with damage to spare. AA and Yue Wenle had developed relatively peacefully in the previous match, but when it came to marksmen, being suppressed was more rage-inducing than being killed. Being killed at least meant that someone was targeting you. What did being suppressed amount to? Being inferior to others? President A refused to accept that! In this game, neither of them had taken showy talents, and both of them had talents who would deal massive damage in the later stages. However, President A had two supports, so Lele didnt even have a chance! Nearly thirty minutes into the game, both the berserker thief and immortal thief had already passed their strongest period. Both of them had been reckless in the early stages, fighting and killing, and it was best if they could end the game in the early or middle stages. Once it dragged into the late stage, their effect in the group battles would plummet. The berserker thief was better off than the immortal thief. After all, he could refresh his passive through killing and could deal enough damage. The immortal thief started to feel like it was just scratching elbows with its attacks. When the thousand blades skill hit the ground and he wanted to go again What are you thinking? You dont have the space-time knight to rely on! Wei Xiao was getting frustrated. Seeing that the situation had already gone astray, he clenched his teeth and said, I want to practice the space-time knight too! Just this? Laozi could play it too, and laozi could show off just as well! The others didnt react much, but Bai Cai started trembling first. About that He was a support. He really didnt want to be forced into a gong role cough, he didnt want to be forced into a jungler role! At this time, Lu Feng said quietly, No need. Wei Xiao sighed, I was just saying The space knight wasnt like the soul warlock, and it was too strange using it to fight in the jungle. This could very likely drive Brother Cai to death. Unexpectedly, Lu Fengs next sentence was: I can use the space-time knight. The author has something to say: In fact, Lulu knows everything. xiin: ahhhh, the blades in their history T_T Chapter 247.1: They didn’t think about winning or losing, and focused on grasping the moment! editor: apricot Lu Feng could use the space-time knight as well? The four little ones were all stunned. FTW did have a double support line-up. When Tang Chen played top lane, he was very good at the space knight, and that line-up had a high win rate. With two supports protecting Close, they could win a game playing three against five. Of course, the other side wasnt stupid either. They used their ban spot on the space time knight, breaking apart the double support line-up. Brother Tang was able to use the space time knight, Caicai could use it as well, and Wei Xiao could use it with some practice. However, picturing Lu Feng using the space time knight left people feeling a bit incredulous. The great demon king could use any talent in the singles competition, but he never touched those that tended towards support. It was difficult for a clever woman to make food without rice. No matter how strong his personal ability was, it wasnt possible to use a holy priest and win in a solo game. Just think about God Yans zen style four talents during the global opening game for the new singles competition mode. Of course, Lu Feng could certainly play the space knight. The upper limit for the talent was high, the operations required were complex, and the ultimate move mechanism was difficult. As a talent kaleidoscope, there was nothing he couldnt play. It was just that playing it and really using it were two different things. There were two kinds of play methods: DPS type and support type. If there had been an uproar in the live broadcast room when Yuan Ze took the space knight, then Lu Feng taking the space knight would leave the entire world staring at him wide-eyed. When the haters saw Yuan Ze using the space knight, they immediately determined that he was an Oscars winning actor. If they saw Lu Feng using it, then it was likely they wouldnt even be able to flame himCCit would be like real life magic where someone else had transmigrated into the great demon kings body! FTW was unable to turn the tide during the second game. Although they managed to push their way to L&Ps base on the top lane, they were only able to take down the outer towers in the other lanes. Yuan Ze didnt really fight directly against Lu Feng in this game. Except for maintaining his lane soldiers, he basically didnt fight with Lu Feng in the top lane at all. He took Old G with him, and they roamed wildly through the top and bottom jungle zones, hitting whoever they ran into. And whoever those two ran into, died. Bai Cai was so angry that he couldnt control his emotions. Is the space knight so strong? I can train with it too! While having him play jungler was a true impossibility, the space-time knight tended towards support. If there was a suitable line-up, then Bai Cai really could use it. However It was more effective when used in the top-lane than as a pure support. The captains words lingered in his mind, but they always felt like an illusion. In the later stages, the advantages and disadvantages of both sides became more obvious. Yue Wenle and Ning Zhehan were dealing enough DPS. Alright, it was more than enough; they were practically putting their lives on the line to deal damage. Bai Cai also started up two team fights perfectly, accurately landing his control skills on VIVI. Wei Xiao and Lu Feng could also deal explosive DPS instantly but VIVI was able to stand back up again in the next second and use flash to move to a safe position. He retaliated with his beams and stabbed the two jungler kings with his beams, making the audience so angry their livers ached. Defeat! FTW lost one point. Both sides were tied at 1:1. When faced with this situation, the audience in the live broadcast room didnt scold FTW for once. How should they put it Although theyd lost, they could see how hard the players had tried. They wanted to flame, but couldnt find anywhere to start from. Even without mentioning Lu Feng and Wei Xiao. Bai Cai, Ning Zhehan, and Yue Wenle had all played well, and let alone looking at the China competition zone, even if they looked across the whole world, there were very few teams who could win group fights under L&Ps rogue-like play style. Fortunately it was a BO5 game, and it was full-game BP. Yuan Zes space knight was forever hated after only being used once. The entire Chinese population never wanted to see it again! The previous flamers also felt their faces hurting. Theyd thought that Yuan Ze was trying to throw the game, but unexpectedly, theyd won the game in such a bug-like fashion. There was no more calling him an Oscars winner. They could only brush out the following: FTW is so crappy, why are they competing? They should go back to raise pigs and farm! This kind of diss that had no technical content left fans too lazy to try and reason with them. Even the moderators were too lazy to block them. From another perspective, the haters also proved that FTW had taken no real damage from this match. Otherwise, they wouldve already been flamed colorfully in all sorts of ways. The third matchs BP began. This time was different from the last match, because the full-game BP had officially kicked in. The talents that had been used and banned in the previous match were all listed at the top of the screen as a reminder for the audience. FTW had banned the shadow thief, so they could no longer ban it in this match. The shadow thief was let out just like that. They were able to choose first this time, and Chen Feng was hesitating over whether to take it or not. Letting Wei Xiao use the shadow thief in the third match left him feeling a little flustered. The new competition system was a bit like Tian Jis horse racing. The BP in this match was no longer limited to being a problem for the individual match. Instead, they had to consider the entire game overall. Not only did they have to attempt to break up their opponents line-up in this match, they had to consider the next game or even the game after that. They were tied, which wasnt good for FTW. FTWs momentum was soaring. It would be good if they could take the shadow thief and take their opponents down, but if FTWs strongest line-up was destroyed, then the mentality of the players would collapse. Losing two matches in a row and losing with their shadow thief line-up would make their fourth match very difficult. Without a trump card for the match point game, there would be too much pressure and tension for the players. L&P would only end up building up more momentum, making it very possible that they would win three consecutive matches, eliminating FTW. So Chen Feng took a deep breath and then chose to first pick the mid and bottom lane talents. No one had any opinions on this. They might have thought of Chen Fengs concerns or maybe they hadnt. In a full-game BP situation, trusting the coach was very important. The coach was off-stage, looking at the overall situation and better able to exercise clear judgement. Players just needed to play the best they could in the canyon. Since FTW released the shadow thief, L&P didnt act polite and took it directly. Old G started lamenting again. What a pity we cant take the space-time knight again The talents used in the battle of freedom wasnt within the scope of the full-game BP, which was why he could still use the shadow thief. Yuan Ze took the death knight. Old G was happy again. Were set for this game! Theyd taken the same double dark system from the first match, but they wouldnt make the same mistake that they had in the first match again. Underestimating the enemy was impossible. If they still didnt take it seriously, then they really would lose. The live broadcast room audience had already started scolding as soon as they saw L&P take the double dark line-up. FTWs coach is stupid. If he cant BP, then he should just get lost. This is like letting the tiger head right back to the mountain! Chen Feng is the real Oscars winner. What kind of crappy line-up is he giving FTW? Does he want to play against the double dark with just this? Dont you have any clarity on how you won the battle of freedom? Do you really think its still possible to blindly select and repeat talents in a normal match?! Without the great demon kings shadow thief, FTW will just be strung up and beaten by the death knight. Lets head out, lets head out. I bet that itll be 3:1, with FTW stopping in the top eight. There were also those who were analyzing the situation calmly. Chen Feng is the man behind the great demon king. Hes not that crappy. Is he planning to preserve their strength and start fighting hard in the last two matches? L&Ps double dark is really strong. Not to mention FTW, even Y1 might not be able to win. Although FTW won the first match, it was also through the battle of freedom. Under normal BP circumstances, its difficult to restrain the shadow thief and death knight If they let L&P win this game, theyll be at 2:1. Can FTW withstand the pressure? Its still better than taking out all their best talents and losing Is giving up without a fight appropriate? I feel that they should go all out since things are already like this! I support Coach Chen Feng. I think hes onto something. The full-game BP relies on ones brains, and I believe in him! Well, if FTW loses three in a row after their first win, then Ill go to the base and die with him ^_^ Regardless of how fiercely the audience argued in the scrolling comments, the line-up had already been determined. FTWs side wasnt weak, especially when it came to Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle. Theyd gotten the ice mage and the gold hunter, so they shouldnt end up being suppressed. Lu Feng was using the berserker warrior. Wei Xiao had been unable to get the berserker thief because it had been banned, so he was using the flying thief. The flying thief couldnt hold up against a beating, but it could play out guerrilla tactics. Chen Fengs thoughts were clear. They couldnt fight head on, so they might as well go another way. If they were able to hold up against the double dark with their operation, then FTW had a chance of winning. If they couldnt, then Chen Feng breathed in lightly. Brother Tang comforted him. Its alright, we didnt take any major losses with the hero pool. Chen Fengs expression was cold, but his heart was as tense as a taut string. It wont be easy after the score becomes 2:1. Tang Chen was optimistic on a daily basis. Believe in them. Chen Feng: Yes, they could only believe in them. In any case, they were worth believing in. Despite being faced with world champions at the peak, each of his players were fearless climbers who were unafraid of facing difficulties head-on. They wouldnt give up, and they wouldnt slack off. They would only look up at the peak and press forward! When the game loaded, the voices in the FTW team chat were very relaxed. Wei Xiao really wanted to ask Lu Feng about the space-time knight but Forget it, forget it, hed wait a bit longer! If the captain really could use it, they could go back and practice it, then show it off in the next game. Of course, they had to win against L&P first. At the start of the third match, the even score meant that both sides had pulled back to the same starting line. The battle for points had officially begun! FTW was very serious when faced with L&Ps fierce line-up. They didnt think about winning or losing, and focused on grasping the moment! L&P had warmed up from the previous matches, and they invaded the other sides jungle zone mercilessly right from the start. Wei Xiao chose to switch jungle zones, but unexpectedly, AA didnt even go for his own lane soldiers and took shots at him from across a wall. The flying thief had a lot of movement skills, but it didnt have much health. It could run quickly, but it couldnt take damage. In the early stages, a marksman could take down half his health with nothing but an iron sword. Bai Cai came over from the bottom lane to heal him, however, then they had no choice but to let the jungle creeps go because the shadow thief was coming over to corner them. Getting three buffs at the start of the match was a routine operation for L&P when they had this line-up. Wei Xiao was suppressed, and Lu Feng was held up. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were struggling to hold up against the two lane bullies VIVI and AA, soon falling into a dilemma between saving their own lives but losing their tower, or saving the tower and losing their lives. Theyd all ended up collapsing in the early stages, and in the later stage, the flying thief and berserker warrior split up to direct the lane soldiers. They managed some good damage control, but the farm difference was too big by then. FTW suffered an all-out collapse once the big dragon king came out. 2:1. Chapter 247.2: Getting three championships at eighteen, the only one! editor: apricot 2:1. Although theyd been psychologically prepared, they still sucked in a breath of cold air when they saw it for real. Chen Fengs expression was pale, and his voice very low. Did I do something wrong? After letting this game go, would they really be able to win the remaining two matches? After avoiding L&Ps strongest line-up, could FTW win the subsequent matches? Having to win two match points in a row, what kind of terrible pressure was that! There was no need for him to look at the list of already used talents that the system provided. Chen Feng could think of all of them in his heart. Which ones L&P could use, which ones FTW could use. Under the full-game BP system, each team couldnt only have four sets of line-ups. With both the disruption and direction from the coaches, there were no longer that many line-ups that could be taken out and used to win, play stably, and restrain the other team. Besides, in the battle of freedom, FTW had used the immortal thief and blood warrior in the second match, as well as Bai Cais holy priest. In the third match, theyd used Ning Zhehans ice mage and Yue Wenles gold hunter. There were still many strong talents left. In the fourth match, they could use the double thief or even the double dark Chen Feng had simulated countless possibilities just brainstorming on his own. Dont panic. He absolutely couldnt panic. Focus on the overall situation. He had to give the players confidence! Three matches had ended, and it was time for the half-time break. Chen Feng got up and beckoned to Tang Chen. Lets go, well check in on them. Compared with the tension on Chen Fengs side, the players whod had two matches snatched away were in good shape. They were laughing and talking as they went to the backstage lounge. They could hear Wei Xiao asking, Captain, can you really play the space-time knight? Lu Feng: Yes. Wei Xiaos eyes brightened. Weve never practiced with it in training matches. Lu Feng: The mechanism is similar to that of the divine warrior. The divine warrior was also a functional type top-lane talent. FTW had practiced with it quite a few times, and it could be considered half a support. It was very effective when used in cooperation with Wei Xiaos shadow thief. The double dark system and the double thief system both focused on the top-jungler playing together. The divine shadow combo was another top-jungler option. One of them would start team fights and give buffs while the other rushed in uninhibitedly. The former trusted the latter as they fought hard together, while the latter was the shadow thief who handed control of his life to the divine warrior as he dealt DPS for them both, carving out a bloody path. There was no distinction between strength and weakness. It all depended on the system restraints. Wei Xiao was a bit excited. Then, we He hadnt even finished speaking when Lu Feng dropped his gaze and said, We can. Wei Xiao: ! We could use the space-time knight. Lu Feng could use the space-time knight in the next match. Even if it was a match point game, even if they would have to pack up and go home if they lost, Lu Feng still said that they could use it. Close had never been a rash person. He was always calm and thoughtful. If he said it could be used, then it meant they could win with it. Wei Xiaos lips curved into a smile. Okay! There was no unease and no pressure. There was only complete trust. Chen Feng, whod heard their conversation, Could your hearts be any bigger? Arent you even a little bit panicked over the match point?! They would stop in the top eight if they lost the match! Chen Feng took a deep breath. Dont mess around. Lu Feng: Its fine. Chen Feng might be able to retort if someone else had said these words, but when Lu Feng was the one speaking, Chen Feng could only say, Tang Chen was also stunned for a moment. Youre really going to use the space-time knight? Lu Feng: Mm. Tang Chen: But Lu Feng: We can win. The silent backbone of FTW had actually spoken so much. Close, who never took the initiative to ask for anything, was actually so persistent about using a specific talent. Chen Feng and Tang Chen both fell silent. Wei Xiao spoke up excitedly. Yeah, use the space-time knight! The three little ones were still a bit flustered. Little Ning opened his mouth to say, About that will we be able to cooperate well? Lu Feng: Theres no need to deliberately cooperate with me. These words carried more weight than all his previous words. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle didnt feel anything, but Chen Feng and Tang Chen felt a sourness and astringency in their hearts, which surged up and spread out its bitterness into their throats. No need to deliberately cooperate with him. Close, who nobody could cooperate with, and who didnt need others to deliberately cooperate with him. Chen Feng sat down on the sofa and said nothing. He was thinking, thinking about the line-up for the space-time knight. Why did Close insist on using a line-up that hadnt been used in any training matches? A talent that his teammates werent familiar with C why take it out in this match point game? Chen Feng tried to analyze the pros and cons. The benefits were obvious: If used well, Wei Xiao would be the freest cub in the canyon and would be able to slaughter his way across the whole map since the space-time knight was suited for group fights. If its ultimate move was used well, then Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle could give better DPS output and show off in all sorts of fancy ways with their strong talents. The disadvantages were also clearly visible: They hadnt practiced it before, and it wasnt clear if they would be able to cooperate with it. Also, Ning Zhehan wasnt very familiar with that talent so would he be able to react and follow up with his skills? CCNo need to deliberately cooperate with me. This sentence from Lu Feng suddenly squeezed into Chen Fengs brain. The space-time knight was a talent that let him cooperate with others as he liked. Regardless of whether it was the shield of time or the space-time prophecy, they were both skills that should be released in sync with his teammates skills. Indeed, there was no need for his teammates to deliberately do anything. All that was needed was the space-time knights own judgement. Whether or not he understood his teammates, whether or not he was familiar with them, whether or not he could synchronize with their skills or even predict their combo releases in advance Lu Feng definitely understood Wei Xiao. Did Lu Feng also understand Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle? Did Close understand his teammates? Chen Feng didnt say anything out loud, but he felt that Lu Feng wanted to prove something. To whom Or maybe it wasnt directed at any particular individual but rather, it was something he wanted to tell the world Chen Feng gritted his teeth and swallowed. Okay! They would use the space-time knight. After resting and going back to the arena, they entered a new round of BP. The entire venue grew agitated when FTW took out the space-time knight. Is this benched talent so popular now? Who is using it?? Is Caicai using it? It cant be Little Lunatic Wei, right Wei Xiao had done too many fantastical things so everyone could already imagine it. This was undoubtedly a landmine that had exploded, leaving everyone a little confused. This included L&P. Old Gs expression was dumbfounded. Who is this space knight for? VIVI narrowed his eyes. Its locked in. Yuan Ze: Gary spoke the truth that everyone didnt want to believe but had to. Is Close using the space knight? Yuan Ze: The commentators were also surprised, and Eurostar was left speechless. Brother Mouth was very professional and quickly said, It looks like FTW has a new routine. Theyre very brave using a new tactic for their match point. They were also very much trying to get themselves killed! Brother Mouth tried to continue jokingly. This space knight cant be for Close, right? Hahahahaha. Then, the face slapping came with a papapa sound, swelling up this loyal fans face. It really was Close! It was really Close using the space knight! In a corner beneath the stage, a man who was wearing a cap, sunglasses, a mask, and a loose t-shirt, sighed. If it werent for the tear-shaped mole, it was likely that even Li Heran wouldnt recognize him as his ADC. Pro wasnt playing, and Kim Sung-hyuns mouth had said, Laozi doesnt have time to go to the scene. But his body was honest and had run over to hide among the crowd of fans to watch the game. Kim Sung-hyun had felt like hed been stabbed with a knife when Yuan Ze took the space-time knight. When Close took the space-time knight, Kim Sung-hyun once again felt like hed been stabbed by a knife. The proud flowers palm-sized heart was already bleeding and dripping blood. No one knew that Close could use the space knight, except for Kim Sung-hyun. No one knew when Close had practiced the space knight, except for Kim Sung-hyun. On a certain day three years ago. Close had gone out early to pick up a lost Kim Sung-hyun and bring him back, and after returning to the base, hed seen Yuan Ze, whod stayed up late in the training room. At eight oclock in the morning, no one except for Close was awake in FTW. Kim Sung-hyun had just been about to leave. He was especially unwilling to give up Chinese food and went to buy Chinese pancakes with fruit every morning. And then as he walked around, he found himself f*cking unable to find his way back to the base. What was he supposed to do about that! Kim Sung-hyun had only bought two fruit pancakes. He hadnt expected Old Shit to be awake. Kim Sung-hyun tiptoed away. Im leaving, dont let him see. There werent enough pancakes for them to share. Close: Kim Sung-hyun glared at him. Its delicious! Give it back if youre not eating it. Close didnt give it back to him, but went into the training room instead. The door wasnt closed tightly. Yuan Ze, who had his back facing the door to the training room, cursed through his headphones. So what if Im playing the space knight? Closes footsteps stopped. Yuan Ze was on voice chat in his double queue. What the hell do you know, other than Laozi, who else can cooperate with that stinky boy? Yuan Zes voice was a bit nasty. Getting three championships at eighteen, its an honor only one person has earned! The author has something to say: Eighteen years old QAQ
