Glory [e-sports]

The people in the training room didn’t 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 Xiao’s ‘heroic deeds’ in two or three sentences.

It was inevitable that Bai Cai’s ‘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 Cai’s 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 Cai’s despair?!

After listening, Lu Feng looked at Wei Xiao and said, “Don’t use your private spending money. In the future, this kind of thing will come from the club.”

The training room: “!!!”

Chen Feng’s 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 Cai’s mouth twitched. It was bad enough that he dropped such words; couldn’t he add in some punctuation!? What the hell was this sentence.

Lu Feng: “Hm?”

Wei Xiao was alerted and quickly changed his words, “Captain, you’re too good!” His tone was very well-behaved.

The tip of Lu Feng’s ear moved slightly, but his expression didn’t change at all, “Mm.”

Wei Xiao added, “However, you don’t have to worry. This money definitely won’t be lost!”

He then looked at Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle, “Brothers, the captain is so righteous and great, so we can’t let him down. In this battle, we’re fighting not only for Bai Cai’s innocence, but also for the team leader’s 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 Xiao’s 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 Cai’s 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 hadn’t 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? There’s been no hint of it, captain…”

Lu Feng interrupted him, “Wei Xiao.”

Wei Xiao: “Here!”

Lu Feng: “That’s your private spending money.”

Wei Xiao was confused for a moment, “Ah?”

Lu Feng looked at him meaningfully.

Wei Xiao’s heart stuttered for a moment, and he inexplicably thought of those messed up words he’d said himself––

My girlfriend is very powerful when working, but she’s very cute in private…

She’s 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, “You’ve entered a game.”

Wei Xiao turned his head to look. Oh, he’d entered a game.

If they wanted to get into the top three on the scoreboard, it wasn’t 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 shouldn’t be wasted.

However…

Wei Xiao’s 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 Xiao’s 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 mustn’t get distracted!

The matter regarding the private spending money wasn’t 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.

He’d done it on purpose.

He’d stimulated Wei Xiao deliberately and flustered him on purpose.

What did it mean to be big-hearted?

It wasn’t 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 one’s 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 wasn’t something that could just be done by talking. Personality and growth experiences also played a role.

When it came to Wei Xiao’s childhood, Lu Feng felt a thorn stab his heart––

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 he’d maneuvered a hero as FTW’s jungler.

Although it wasn’t 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, he’d 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, FTW’s champion support was excellent, but he could be even better.

He had reached a level of play that was beyond reproach, but he’d 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 who’d notified them about the situation with Bai Cai at noon.

Wei Xiao had already told Bai Cai about it, but Brother Vegetable hadn’t had time to say thanks to him yet.

Wei Xiao spoke in the public screen, “Brother Chun, I’m sorry~.”

At this moment, Li Chun hadn’t realized yet what would happen. Then…

“Ahhhh!”

“Aahhhhh!”

“Aaahhhhhhh!”

The people in the 3U training room, “What’s wrong with you?”

Li Chun’s 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 Chun’s 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, “Weren’t you a little too cruel.”

Wei Xiao stretched his fingers and said, “I only went all out because we’re brothers.”

After going through this experience, Li Chun’s 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 wasn’t that the two of them hadn’t been playing seriously yesterday, but they hadn’t 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 they’d 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 who’d 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 Knight’s jungler: “???”

This European jungler king who’d been solo queueing was inexplicably targeted to death so refreshingly.

… What was up with this Quiet from FTW?

Wasn’t 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 name––Carp CP.

The Carp combination had been cut down until they entered seclusion last time when they came up against Wei Xiao’s 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: “There’s 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 didn’t 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, everyone’s 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 Xiao’s games had all stayed there and couldn’t move away.

“These two are toxic!”

“Are they so strong???”

“This jungler is FTW’s top-laner, right?”

“Holy shit, has he gone crazy? How come his murderous intent is so strong?!”

The ‘old’ fans who’d 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 who’d coined the phrase explained, “Tearing down the opponent’s core into two, is a tear down game.”

After listening to this explanation, the passerby who’d 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!

SK’s Ali and Ayu held their heads in their hands and wept bitterly after the match ended.

What was going on?!

Hadn’t Quiet just entered the team? How come he and FTW’s support player played together like old partners who’d 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 Cai’s luck was really incredibly good.

Yesterday, they’d 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 didn’t 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 hadn’t 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 team’s support player.

The man who’d 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, who’d 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 he’d exploded into a ball, “Why is FTW third!”

Those in the top three could only choose opponents and couldn’t be chosen.

Old G, who’d worked hard for half a day––

Had he done all that hard work for nothing?

apricot: ah poor gary…if only he knew quiet had already forgotten him…
