Glory [e-sports]

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, Quiet’s appearance, really doesn’t lose out to a siren.”

The CP fans chattered quietly, “It’s over, it’s over, my heart.”

“The great demon king’s 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, couldn’t manage his own expression at all beneath the cameras. His entire posture and attitude was negative.

Lu Feng wasn’t very clear about how they stepped down from the stage.

His mind was full of Wei Xiao’s last words.

It wasn’t 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 shouldn’t have taken it seriously, but for some reason, he couldn’t forget about it.

It was like he’d been bewitched by the power thief’s first skill, his eyes kept drifting towards Wei Xiao’s 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 Feng’s 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 Xiao’s heart felt guilty, and his gaze skittered away, “You-you shouldn’t 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 didn’t know if they’d be playing one game or two.

Captain, don’t 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 wasn’t the right time.

They were still competing, and now wasn’t 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, “I’ll go.”

Chen Feng was a little shocked, “You’ll… 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, they’d 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 wasn’t much significance in having a wheel battle.

They’d draw lots, and those who drew to play would fight. If they won, they’d enter the finals, if they lost, they’d be eliminated. There wasn’t 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 today’s 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 who’d spoken up to go.

He always had the feeling that Lu Feng’s mood was a little off, especially when it came to the gaze he used to look at Wei Xiao…

Chen Feng’s heart clenched: No way, at such a critical time, you… you can’t hold back anymore?

Lu Feng managed to hold back.

His heart was beating very fast, and his palms were sweating.

However, he didn’t say anything, and he didn’t even look towards Wei Xiao.

He couldn’t ask, and he didn’t 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 he’d placed on them.

And right now, he definitely couldn’t 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 he’d 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 host’s voice was a little weak, “Come on then, let’s 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 Yuan’s 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, you’re 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 couldn’t see or identify clearly, they looked at each other.

At that moment, everything in Wei Xiao’s 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 can’t stand it anymore.

He couldn’t 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 didn’t 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 couldn’t think about it.

This wasn’t 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, Pro’s 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 Pro’s 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 wasn’t 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 hadn’t used the shadow thief in a long time, but this was undoubtedly Wei Xiao’s best hero.

The audience watched as FTW took the shadow thief, and they couldn’t help but whistle in front of their computers.

Close’s shadow thief was countless people’s faith.

Quiet’s 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.”

“They’re right to target Kim Sung-hyun. However, when it comes to Pro, they’re very much not afraid of God Kim being targeted.”

“Whether FTW’s blade is tougher or Pro’s arrows are sharper, let’s wait and see!”

The BP ended. Both sides were clearly determined and grabbed advantages in their line-ups.

FTW’s 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. FTW’s 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 side’s c-position with a set of skills; the storm hunter was even more famous for its flexibility, once it was played well, the other side’s gold hunter would be beat up until they entered seclusion.

FTW’s intentions were written all over their faces––they’d 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 Heran’s best hero. If the skills were used well, it would allow his teammates to sit back up constantly (resurrection skill).

Kim Sung-hyun’s gold hunter didn’t need to be explained further.

In a wonderful match during last year’s global elimination series, everyone suspected that the ‘gold’ from the gold hunter was actually named for Kim Sung-hyun’s surname.

It was too amazing…

His ultimate move was accurate across the entire map.

He’d 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 side’s red.”

Lu Feng: “Yes.”

Brother Vegetable’s light priest followed Wei Xiao the whole time.

In fact, Bai Cai wasn’t very interested in today’s 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 wasn’t 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 Cai’s nerves were tensed up, and he didn’t dare to relax in the slightest.

After executing a sneak attack on the opposite side’s 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 Cai’s 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 didn’t try to avoid it and said directly, “I want to win and do something.”

Brother Cai couldn’t keep himself from asking, “Do what?”

Wei Xiao looked at Kim Sung-hyun’s figure, and the corners of his lips curved up, “The most important event of one’s life.”
