After the interview, Qi Zhou returned to the lounge, but before he entered the door, he heard the ghost screaming inside.

Qi Zhou pushed the door in and found that everyone in the Chinese team was celebrating like crazy.

Uzi danced in the middle of the lounge: "Champion! Yes! We are the champions! ”

The sister buckle pulled Xiao Ming to take a group photo, and the two bit the gold medal in their mouths, and then made the signature photo gesture.

Xi Ye hooked up with the factory director, who was taunting Uzi: "Jane is proud, look at the way you haven't won the championship, don't go crazy, okay?" ”

Xi Ye: "He really didn't seem to win the championship, don't say it, don't say it." ”

As the coach, Abu was full of red face, and took pictures with his mobile phone in the back, and kept shouting: "Hahaha, I took pictures of the current appearance of the guys and posted them to the fan base, I'll see how they react." ”

Qi Zhou shook his head when he saw this, for him, who had already won a bunch of champions, these were small scenes, and there was no turmoil in his heart.

Qi Zhou stepped forward and was about to pack up his things, and the factory director immediately came over: "Sea King, how about taking a picture, there may not be a chance in the future." ”

Qi Zhou half-jokingly said: "Why don't you have a chance?" Are you retiring or terminally ill? ”

What Qi Zhou didn't expect was that when he said this, the factory director's expression became a little sad, and he said: "I can't do it, I'm old, I want to retire." ”

Seeing this, Qi Zhou comforted: "Age is not a problem, only if you still have the fighting spirit to continue fighting." ”

The factory director smiled: "I hope to be able to move you by your auspicious words." ”

The factory director said and took out his mobile phone to take a photo with Qi Zhou.

As soon as the photo with the factory director ended, Uzi came up and said that he also wanted to take a group photo.

Then Xiao Ming, Mei Buckle, Xi Ye, and finally Abu also came to join in the fun.

After Qi Zhou and everyone took a group photo alone, under the greeting of Abu, everyone took a group photo together, and the picture froze at this moment, everyone in the Chinese team wore neat team uniforms, held the gold medal in their mouths, and then made heart-to-heart movements.

The next morning, the Chinese team boarded a plane and returned to China.

Qi Zhou went straight to FPX's training base and didn't even have time to rest.

Back at the training base, Qi Zhou went straight to the training room.

Push open the door and find that everyone else is training.

Xiao Tian was the first to notice Qi Zhou, and hurriedly greeted, "Coming back?" How does it feel? Isn't it cool? ”

Xiao Tian's words attracted the attention of others, and everyone began to discuss:

"I'm so envious, why didn't I get selected?"

"Let me see what the gold medal looks like, is it pure gold?"

"It must be pure gold, and the cost of a gold medal seems to be hundreds of thousands."

"It's not something that can be measured in money, you don't understand."

Everyone came up to see the gold medal style.

Qi Zhou took out the gold medal from his backpack and handed it to everyone, and everyone began to study it.

Looking at the heavy gold medal in his hand, everyone was even more envious.

At this moment, the door of the lounge was pushed open, and Brother Feng walked in.

Seeing everyone gathered together, Brother Feng asked, "What are you doing?" I'm not training yet, and the S race is about to start! ”

Seeing this, Xiao Tian hurriedly said; "Aquaman is back, and we're looking at his gold medal."

"Oh? Is that so? Brother Feng strode up.

FPX everyone became honest, and just when everyone thought that Brother Feng might be angry, Brother Feng stepped forward to pick up the gold medal and looked at it, and said at the same time: "Is this pure gold?" How does it feel like it's gilded? Wrong! It should be pure gold, quite heavy. ”

Seeing Brother Feng's serious appearance, everyone almost fell down.

At this time, Qi Zhou stood up and stepped forward to greet him: "Brother Feng." ”

Brother Feng handed over the gold medal and said at the same time: "It's hard work, but there may not be time for you to rest now, you should be able to understand, the S game is going to start, this time it's at the home of the stick, and the task is arduous." ”

Qi Zhou nodded: "Well, I can understand." ”

Brother Feng continued: "Everyone prepare, I'm going to make an appointment with IG for a training match, and there is still about half an hour. ”

After hearing this, everyone returned to their positions one after another, and those who were in the queue continued to play the rankings, and those who were in the queue were canceled.

Qi Zhou returned to his place and began to prepare.

I have to say that he is really a little tired now, after all, he has been on the plane for such a long time.

Half an hour passed quickly, and the training match began!

This time, the representatives of LPL in the S competition are FPX, IG and RNG.

So now only these three teams are still training, and the other teams have gone fishing.

Of course, in addition to the teams in the region, in principle, you can also make appointments with teams from other regions.

The bad news is that teams from other regions have basically gone to the LCK to train, after all, the S game is played in the LCK, and now the past training can be familiar with the venue and adjust the schedule.

For the LPL crowd, the good news is that the time difference between the stick and this side is only one hour, so there is basically no need to adjust the schedule, and at the same time, the gap in terms of food is not large, although it is a little shabby, but it is acceptable.

FPX everyone played until late at night, and after the training match, it was time to replay.

Now IG's strength is very strong, and it is the kind that is getting stronger and stronger, but it makes FPX feel a lot of pressure.

But now it's just an appetizer, the real point is in a week's time, when the version of the S game will come out, and the new version will definitely have a lot of changes, and then it will depend on the team's understanding of the version, as well as the situation of the player's hero pool.

Now, for training matches, as long as you keep in competitive condition, avoid getting tired because you haven't played for a long time.

The next day, RNG also came to the door, and now that Uzi and Xiao Ming have returned to the team, RNG said that they want to play a training match with FPX.

Naturally, FPX will not refuse.

At the same time, the news that the Chinese team beat the kimchi team at the Asian Games has spread, and after a night of fermentation, the whole network now knows about it.

At this time, LCK fans did not dare to speak out, and they all said that they would withdraw from the net and hide from the limelight.

Also because of the great success of the Chinese team in the Asian Games, now all major e-sports platforms regard FPX, IG and RNG as the favorites to win the S8 championship.

Now FPX is in first place for the time being, followed by KT, then RNG, third is GEN, and IG is ranked sixth!

The LPL accounts for half of the top six, which is a recognition of the strength of the region.

Now that the LPL is the first division, even LCK fans can't keep their mouths shut.

A week passed quickly, and while the three LPL teams were still training, news came from the LCK that the LCK teams were killing all sides while training with teams from other regions.

KT, in particular, has almost no opponents.

Not only that, but the three LCK teams are helping each other and will soon understand the version, and with the routines learned from other regions, the LCK will win the championship in this S event!

When he saw the news, Qi Zhou saw it as a joke, which was obviously released to attract attention, and now for the LCK Sunset, they are all old antiques playing games, and there is no fresh blood for a long time, what to fight with LPL?

However, this news seems to have convinced many people, and the odds KT on major platforms have come to the first place.

In the ranking of the favorites to win the championship, the rankings of the three LPL teams have dropped, proving that the LCK hype has been successful and has once again won the attention of the world.

Qi Zhou didn't care, but the others were a little anxious.

So the coaches of the three teams combined, they can't go on like this, they must be united!

Under the discussion of the coaching staff of the three teams, it was decided to exchange information, no reservations, and what tactics and ideas were shared by everyone and unanimously with the outside world.

Qi Zhou naturally will not object to this proposal, because he is too familiar with the LPL team, so familiar that he can play casually, compared to other regions but the team is more threatening.

This is not to say that the strength of the LPL team is inferior to theirs, it is just a matter of familiarity.

Another ten days have passed, and it is only half a month before the start of the S competition, and the play-in tournament is about to start.

The three LPL teams are ready to go.

On this day, the FPX people got on a bus and came to the airport.

As soon as he got off the bus, Qi Zhou noticed that there were many people gathered in the square in front of the airport.

There are also two groups of people wearing team uniforms, which should be RNG and IG players from the team uniforms, and there are coaching staff, logistics and translators next to them.

The FPX crowd stepped forward under the leadership of Brother Feng.

After getting closer, RNG coaches and IG coaches greeted each other:

"Brother Feng."

"Brother Feng."

Brother Feng took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with the other party.

On the other side, the IG and RNG team members took the initiative to come up to greet Qi Zhou.

Uzi was the first to come up: "Aquaman, I feel like you're in good shape." ”

Qi Zhou responded; "Are you all ready? Don't get knocked out too soon, it's boring. ”

Uzi: "Can't you say something nice about that?" For example, will we divide the finals? ”

As soon as Uzi's words came out, King Ning stopped doing it: "What the hell? You will be in the finals, so what should we do with IG? In any case, it is also the final between us and FPX. ”

Uzi turned away; "What about dreaming? Did you beat us this season? None of the BO3s have beaten us, and they are fighting with us? ”

Yu Wenbo stepped forward and said, "Big brother, it's a new version now, what are you talking about?" Still nostalgic for the past? It's not like I haven't won you in training matches. ”

Uzi was naturally unconvinced: "Can training matches be the same as competitions?" Training matches are not going to be 100 per cent. ”

Qi Zhou saw that the two sides were about to quarrel, so he said; "It's almost there, you started to fight before you were big with the stick? Don't talk about the finals, can you beat GEN? Can you beat KT? ”

When it comes to GEN, Uzi is energetic: "GEN? I played this team specifically, and they didn't beat me in their lives. ”

Yu Wenbo said; "KT, but I'm getting older on the road, so I can handle it too."

While everyone was talking, Brother Feng stepped forward and said, "Let's all gather, let's take a group photo together, it will be regarded as the departure ceremony." ”

Hearing Brother Feng's words, more than a dozen people in the three teams began to stand.

"Come, Aquaman, you stand in the front, stand in the middle." Qi Zhou originally wanted to stand casually in the back and forget it, but everyone came to the front, and it was still the C position, which became the only focus.

And Uzi and Jackeylove stood on the left and right sides of Qi Zhou, and everyone was like stars holding the moon, surrounding Qi Zhou in the middle.

The coaches of the three teams squatted in front and took photos with their teammates.

After the group photo, everyone walked towards the airport.

After a two-hour flight, the three LPL teams reached their destination!

After leaving the airport, everyone saw three buses at the door, which were labeled with FXP, RNG and IG team logos, which were officially prepared but used to receive the participating teams.

So Qi Zhou got on the FPX car and went to the hotel.

After half an hour's drive, the car stopped in front of a hotel.

Qi Zhou was in the parking lot outside the hotel and saw several similar buses, which had various team logos on them, and Qi Zhou couldn't even recognize them.

Now that the play-in tournament is about to start, the play-in teams must have come, except for the third seed in the LCK, the other teams are all in the wild card region, and the teams in the wild card region basically change a lot every year, and Qi Zhou can understand if he can't remember it

After getting out of the car, everyone walked into the hotel.

There were quite a few staff members in the hall, and when they saw someone coming in, several staff members came up.

Brother Feng came forward with a translator to communicate, and after identifying himself, Brother Feng came to the front desk under the leadership of the staff, and everyone in FPX followed.

Brother Feng got more than a dozen room cards from the front desk, and then walked up to the FPX crowd and said:

"Take your own choosing, it's all next to each other, you can take whatever you want."

Qi Zhou reached out and picked up one casually, and took a look at it and found that it was room 505.

After everyone took the room card, they came to the elevator under the leadership of Brother Feng.

Soon, the elevator came down, the elevator door opened, and Qi Zhou saw several familiar figures!

Judging by their uniforms, it is clear that they are members of the AFS team.

“AFS？ They look like they're going to make the play-in. Xiao Tian said suddenly.

Liu Qingsong: "Fortunately, last year's championship was won by our division, otherwise IG would have played the play-in tournament today." ”

Xiao Tian nodded; "yes, otherwise it's miserable."

However, the words of the two seemed to be understood by AFS, and when the AFS people passed by, they glared at the FPX crowd fiercely, and their mouths were still "Xiba ......" or something.

"Huh? What do they mean by that? "It's not good to be a little bit.

"Forget it, ignore them, talk on the field." Qi Zhou dissuaded.

"I didn't expect them to dare to provoke us, a No. 3 seed." Xiao Tian muttered.

"No way, after all, the LCK once notified this game, and it took us two years to beat it down, and now it's a little arrogant, you can understand." Liu Qingsong said slowly.

The FPX crowd got on the elevator and went to the fifth floor.

Qi Zhou found his room with the room card, and then opened the door with the room card, this room is not small, it should be more than 40 square meters, with a separate bathroom, a large bed, a desk, a sofa, as well as bookshelves and wardrobes.

There is a computer on this desk, and the style is quite new.

Qi Zhou first stuffed his clothes into the closet, sorted out his personal belongings a little, and then sat down in front of the computer and turned it on to give it a try.

After some trying, I feel that the configuration of the computer is not bad, and the network speed is quite fast.
