Chapter 8: The Eve of the War (4)

Xie Liuying: "So you really can't stand him going back and forth like this, and finally agreed to break up." ”

Cat Food Sauce: "Yes. ”

Me: "So he didn't do that before?" ”

Cat food sauce: "It's been okay for the past few years, but it suddenly became like this since March this year. ”

Xie Liuying and I glanced at each other, if what she said was true, then I don't know what happened in March that made the lights change like this.

As we chatted about the gossip of the strongest players in the league, the time for PK gradually came to an end. In the end, my live broadcast room was still defeated by cat food sauce by a narrow margin and did not win the final prize. But this award is no longer important in my opinion, as the strongest player in the league, it is natural that he is the target of countless people to catch up, if he is really a person with a chaotic private life and neglect to train, then it will cause a huge blow to the credibility of the entire arena.

Behind this incident, I seem to vaguely see the shadow of the mastermind behind the scenes, who chose this opportunity to spread these negative news inside and outside the e-sports circle through my live broadcast room. But I believe that those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid, and when the lights are not in the sun and the team, they should come up with some evidence to prove themselves, and there is no need for us outsiders to worry about it at all.

However, until another week passed, neither the lights nor the Scholar's team spoke out about the "revelations" of the cat food sauce that night, which made this matter continue to ferment on various platforms, and there is a tendency to become more and more intense. Although Lighting Weiyang himself has been silent, so the do-gooders and all kinds of media naturally choose to start with his teammates to find out the news, and the most important thing in this is naturally about "How long does Lighting Weiyang stay at the base in a year?" Do you train weekdays? ".

Confusingly, however, his teammates are mostly silent about the issue, or find something else to cover it up. In this way, everyone's suspicion of this matter has deepened. Of course, many supporters of the fledgling lights and fans of the Shu's team have expressed this opinion: "It doesn't matter if this person is hard working and dedicated, what matters is that he can reach such heights even if he doesn't train." E-sports, strength is paramount, outsiders don't need to guess whether the source of his strength is talent or hard work, if you want to question him, you have to find someone who can beat him. ”

Because he has been winning the championship before the lights are on, there are no black spots on and off the field, although he blew up the ex-girlfriend of "cat food sauce", but many people speculate whether there is any secret or bitterness in this, so what his "ex-girlfriend" said may not be credible. In short, the turmoil of the matter was gradually overshadowed by various news during the transfer period.

In the short two months from spring to summer, although our team has not changed much, the whole league can be said to be turbulent. In recent years, the runner-up team of last year's Reincarnation Cup announced its disbandment for some reason, and the original members also went their separate ways. Among them, the absolute core of the team, the strongest today, and also considered by many to be the strongest archer of all time, Feng Qi joined the Phoenix Stone team.

After Brother Tian retired, the team had been silent for a long time. Last year, the retirement of skill developer Xuan Qi made the team's situation even worse. And Feng Qi is another superstar who has joined after Brother Tian, which makes many fans of the Phoenix Stone team who have begun to be "optimistic" and "Buddhist" see hope again. In order to comprehensively improve the combat power, the team also recruited Liu Bowen, the coach of the Forget Worry team, whose spiritual command in many key games last year made everyone have to admit this person's tactical ability.

And another person worthy of our attention is Lu Xiaodie, who was identified by me and Xie Liuying as the mastermind behind the league during the Chinese New Year offseason, and she went to the Futu team after the team was disbanded. The team announced a rebuild after everyone went their separate ways, promoting young players from the Academy and the second division, but many were not optimistic about their new season.

Coincidentally, according to the schedule of the new season, our first opponent in the new season will be the restructured Forget Worry team. Originally, a team like ours who had just made it from the minor league to the outside world didn't look very competitive against the Forgotten Worry team, but now that they have regrouped, this opener has become a battle between newcomers, and it is full of suspense.

It's the rainy season before the beginning of summer, and the lack of sun for many days makes people feel a little bored, and the boring training day after day is also very maddening.

But the audience didn't agree, and I didn't agree myself, for me, live broadcast is also a kind of training, a kind of training to improve my ability to fight under the attention of the public, and it is also a kind of training to try to improve my mentality of coping with being abused after making mistakes.

But unlike in the past, I always had a doubt in my mind - is it true that you don't need to do these things to get something that others can't get by working hard?

Originally, there was no follow-up progress on this matter, but on this day, when I was busy with a day's training and was free, the words that Cat Food Sauce said that day suddenly popped up in my mind, "It has suddenly become like this since March this year", "I will delay him to go further, anyway, I don't understand, he has already won so many championships, how can he go further?" ”

If I'm in the early stages and I've won so many titles, there's hardly anyone in the league who is my opponent, and that's been boring for three or four years. So what does it mean to go one step further? At least there must be a goal or room for improvement than before, I am already the ceiling, where else can I improve?

Unless- suddenly there is a stronger person than the lights are on.

When I thought about this, the words "March of this year" suddenly took on meaning in my mind. Because at this time, I did encounter someone who might be stronger than the lights were shining. The hooded man who floated in an offline event and mysteriously disappeared. Luna once commented that this man's style of play is not on the same level as the rest of us, and he clearly has a game understanding that surpasses all of us.

Although the offline event of the day was not broadcast publicly, many fans recorded videos in private. It's very likely that Beacon Dawn saw the game between the hooded man and me, and was curious about this person, and even, in Beacon's opinion, this person's strength was likely to be higher than his own.
