Glory [e-sports]

Adding on his teammate’s daydreaming operations, his jungle area became Wei Xiao’s and Bai Cai’s back garden in the early stages. They could go in at will, take away his economy, and even take away Old G’s 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 Cai’s 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 he’d thrown down the gauntlet, but now, he’d 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, who’d been waiting to catch Gary in the dragon pit, smashed down a wall. Old G’s eyes were quick, and his hands were fast, but the berserker thief’s 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, “What’s the matter?”

Gary was going crazy from anger, “How are we ranked!”

Coach: “Second.”

Pro was first.

Gary: “Let’s make an appointment with FTW for tonight’s training match!”

Yuan Ze, who was beside him, glanced over.

The coach analyzed calmly, “It’s not very appropriate. FTW’s score isn’t worth us…”

Gary raged, “Laozi would pick them even if their score was zero!”

Damn it, if he couldn’t vent this anger, he wouldn’t sleep at all tonight!

Fortunately, Wei Xiao couldn’t 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 G’s power thief is no good.”

Chen Feng looked over their game, “He’s never been good at blue collar junglers.”

The so-called blue collar jungler referred to players like Pro’s jungler Park Guizhi.

What he used was a functional talent spec. He didn’t 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 side’s c-position, Pro would’ve 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 he’d been able to take a berserker thief, he would’ve been able to smear Wei Xiao and Bai Cai into the ground.

Wei Xiao didn’t care about these things. He really wished Gary would come to hammer him that night.

If he had Gary’s 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 FTW’s 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. Let’s see who you manage to draw.”

Bai Cai’s 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: “You’re 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 wouldn’t 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 wouldn’t have to force the players to train!

The most famously picky and delicate player in the China competition zone needed to be mentioned––Eurostar.

His hero pool was as deep as the sea, and there was no shooter he couldn’t 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 he’d 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 don’t understand, I’ll 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 didn’t 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 hadn’t been very good at the light priest. By now, he’d already started to realize that he would have to queue with Wei Xiao and continue on the whole way with it…

Brother Vegetable’s muscle memory didn’t 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 curved––Pro’s 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, you’re 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 Xiao’s 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 he’d seen Lu Feng’s marksman before, Wei Xiao was very certain that Kim Sung-hyun’s 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, “Where’s your captain?”

Wei Xiao: “He’s solo queueing.”

Kim Sung-hyun: “……”

Wei Xiao’s typed words couldn’t hide his jealousy, “He just started. Let’s 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. I’m 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 G’s power thief was really useless, but Kim Sung-hyun’s storm hunter was amazing enough to soar.

As a god level ADC, there were no marksman talents that Kim Sung-hyun couldn’t 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 couldn’t be touched at all!

Wei Xiao had watched Kim Sung-hyun’s 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 wouldn’t choose marksman heroes that needed protection when he queued on his own.

Other support players and Li Heran’s support were like two different beasts altogether.

Bai Cai looked at Kim Sung-hyun’s 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 Xiao’s side had long been killed by God Kim’s 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, he’d dodged Bai Cai’s 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 didn’t waste time typing. He rushed into the opposite side’s jungle area and after searching and waiting, managed to find the Kim Sung-hyun who’d just resurrected.

Kim Sung-hyun’s support was also useless. Not only did he not follow the marksman, he wasn’t even able to provide vision.

From Kim Sung-hyun’s 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 Xiao’s scythe moved at the same time, making the audience hold their breath in anticipation.

“Damn, it can’t be avoided. Even if it’s God Kim…”

“Escaped!”

“This storm hunter…”

“It’s 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 hadn’t relaxed his vigilance.

When Bai Cai released his ultimate move, the storm hunter’s 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 Xiao’s 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 Xiao’s eyes didn’t change. When faced with such an amazing storm hunter, he wasn’t 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 wasn’t an easy target. Wei Xiao’s 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 priest’s shield burst instantly, and the sliver of blood left on the berserker thief wasn’t 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, he’d worked desperately to keep up with Wei Xiao. Now, after he’d been a professional player for two years, he’d still fallen behind?

Bai Cai’s 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, “What’s wrong?”

Bai Cai: “……”

Wei Xiao was surprised, “Going into seclusion? It’s 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, we’ll take the holy priest. We’ll bounce him around. Who told him to fly, fly, fly? Does he really think he’s 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 couldn’t be considered a default on their agreement (let alone, after having it happen once, it wouldn’t matter if it happened again).

He’d never thought that luck would be such a dog. He’d indeed encountered Lu Feng, but it was as teammates.

Yuan Ze had vowed that he would never play solo against Lu Feng.

It wasn’t that he didn’t 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 didn’t want to play doubles with him from the very bottom of his heart.

The reason?

It was shameful if he couldn’t keep up, and even more shameful if he could.

Old Dog Yuan would feel ashamed either way!

Compared to everyone else’s 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 didn’t have time to care about his own matching. He was in a state of shock, “Fate is really a wonderful thing.”
