Chapter 37.1: I was born one of Close's people, and I'll die as Close's ghost!

The corner of Wei Xiao’s lips went up and up, until it was almost next to the sun.

Everyone in FTW couldn’t keep watching anymore. They all bowed their heads to do their own thing. Fortunately, they were surrounded by foreigners who didn’t understand Chinese. Otherwise…

Who the hell knew what would happen otherwise!

Wei Xiao was very embarrassed, “Although I know that you value me, I didn’t expect that you valued me so much.”

He looked like he was embarrassed, but his words didn’t come across that way at all.

Lu Feng was about to answer, but he then heard Wei Xiao ask him, “But aren’t I also someone who was defeated at your hands?”

If those who’d suffered defeat weren’t worth soloing with, then Wei Xiaoxiao had lost countless times, so wasn’t that also meaningless?

Lu Feng: “You will win.”

Wei Xiao’s tail cocked up, “That’s true, I’m still a newcomer…”

He thought of Lu Feng’s ‘evaluation’ of him and quickly added, “I have a promising future, right?”

Lu Feng replied, “Yes, the future is promising.”

Wei Xiao really loved these words. His heart was heated, and he started to climb up the ladder again, “How about we let this future… come a little faster?” The sooner they soloed the sooner he would grow! He wanted to win against Close!

The corner of Lu Feng’s lips turned down, “You want to solo?”

Wei Xiao nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice, excited and expectant.

Lu Feng tried to keep his face straight, “Regular season…”

He didn’t need to finish the words. Wei Xiao collapsed back in his chair and directly answered, “I get it, I get it!”

He mimicked Lu Feng’s tone and said, “Was the regular season a grand slam? Did you win all the playoffs? Have you taken home the world cup? If you haven’t done any of it, then how…”

Lu Feng: “……”

Everyone in the venue: “……”

Wei Xiao’s arrogant words had just fallen, and the originally noisy banquet hall fell silent.

Everyone had clearly heard Wei Xiao’s words.

Wei Xiao didn’t take it seriously. There were over a hundred people, but no more than 20 of them could understand Chinese. So what if they’d heard?

Besides, even if they could understand, so what?

Daddy Xiao dared to say it and do it. There was nothing to be afraid of!

Bai Cai, who was sitting behind him, knew why the scene had suddenly gone quiet.

It wasn’t because of Wei Xiao’s ‘bluster’, but because of a group of people who’d walked in from entrance number 2.

Half of them wore L&P’s silver-grey team uniform, while the other half wore Pro’s blue and white team uniform, and the two people leading the teams were both very attractive.

The man in the silver-gray team uniform to the left had short black hair and black eyes. He was talking to the person next to him, and a white agate ear stud sparkled in the light, lending to his frivolous and arrogant appearance.

This was L&P’s team captain, Yuan Ze. Regardless of whether it was the North American competition zone or the China competition zone, everyone had the same evaluation: Marshal, a scum man.

The other man in the blue and white team uniform to the right had slightly long, curly black hair. He had a pair of phoenix eyes beneath long eyebrows, and a tear mole beneath his left eye. When he didn’t smile, he looked cold and proud, but his expression became a little ambiguous and intimate when he smiled.

Pro’s leading ADC, Kim Sung-hyun, had numerous fans in China in the early years of his career. After returning to his home country, he continued to be popular and still had countless fans in the China competition zone.

The reason for this was because, back when he was in FTW’s Team of Gods, he was the one who had the most reason to leave.

After all, when the contract expired, there was nothing wrong with returning back to his home country and switching allegiances.

The people in the banquet hall didn’t care what they looked like, though. They only cared that they were strong.

It was just like when Close came in, they had all paid attention. How could they not stare when these two teams arrived?

L&P was last year’s world championship runner-up, and Gary had taken second place in the individual competition.

As for Pro, not only had they taken third place in the team competition, Kim Sung-hyun and his teammate Li Heran had won the doubles championship!

Two teams, 10 starting players. Each of them had results to be proud of. How could people’s eyes not heat up when they saw them!

Besides, they had all arrived together. It was unknown what Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun were talking about, but the appearance of two people from the honored Temple of Glory was enough to make the entire room’s blood boil!

The venue grew quiet when they came in. Wei Xiao’s voice that should’ve been drowned out in the background noise became unusually clear in the banquet hall––

“Was the regular season a grand slam? Did you win all the playoffs? Have you taken home the world cup? If you haven’t done any of it, then how…”

Those who couldn’t understand: “???”

Those who could understand: “………………”

Gary recognized FTW’s team uniform at a glance. He didn’t know what Wei Xiao looked like, but this voice was too familiar. Even if it was purposely suppressed, he could still identify it clearly!

That son of a bitch, he still dared to be crazy after leaving home!

World championship?

Dream on!

Old G could hear him, and so could Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun.

Yuan Ze curved his lips, “I’m going to meet this kid.”

Kim Sung-hyun noticed Lu Feng, and spoke to Yuan Ze in Chinese, “Bro.”

Those who’d been called bro by Kim Sung-hyun in Chinese. Later on… they all didn’t have any ‘later on’!

Yuan Ze pretended not to have heard him.

Kim Sung-hyun approached him deliberately and said, “Don’t forget to broadcast live…”

Yuan Ze: “……”

Yuan Ze walked away with big strides, heading to the place where the FTW team had settled.

Compared with the old fox, the little children with teeth and flying claws were too cute.

Wei Xiao only noticed L&P after the fact.

It was Yuan Ze and Old G’s first time meeting Wei Xiao, but Wei Xiao understood them very well.

After all, they were all veteran players of the game, and those who watched their competitions every day had become familiar with them long ago.

Yuan Ze smiled slightly, “Quiet?”

One wouldn’t reach out to slap the face of a smiling person. Wei Xiao gave a superficial smile and greeted them.

Old G’s crappy Chinese was really no better than the Martian language, “2021’s championshit cup iz hour L&P’s!”

Everyone in FTW: “……”

You might as well speak English!

Wei Xiao was amused, “Okay, okay, the championshit cup is yours.”

Old G couldn’t tell the difference, but Yuan Ze didn’t have a single ounce of team camaraderie and directly laughed out loud.

Gary: ???”

What exactly was wrong.

God Yuan might have laughed, but he would still get even, “Little friend, if you want to get the world cup, you won’t be able to do it in FTW. Why don’t you come to L&P?”

Previously, it had been a private invitation. This time, he handed out this olive branch in front of countless professional players from 18 teams across all the competition zones.

Most of the people present couldn’t understand Chinese, but they could still understand the situation based on what they saw.

Yuan Ze and FTW had countless enmities and grudges between them. Now, he was coming to provoke FTW’s newcomer?

FTW was too miserable. There was a 90% chance that they would be beaten into seclusion this year.

Some foreign teams who understood Chinese understood the conversation, and then they became confused.

What the hell was this?

Marshal had invited that arrogant kid from FTW to L&P?

Who the hell was that kid?

Quiet…

They’d never heard of this person.

Yuan Ze dared to invite Wei Xiao in front of so many people, and Wei Xiao dared to reject him in front of over a hundred professional players, “No!”

Yuan Ze wasn’t surprised at all, “Think about it. There’s still 15 days.”

Wei Xiao got straight to the point, “No need to think about it. I’m not going anywhere. I was born as an FTW person, and I’ll die as an FTW ghost!”

Chen Feng: “……”

Although a part of him wanted to laugh, he inexplicably felt a little touched. What was the deal with that!

Tang Chen directly laughed out loud, “Hahaha, Little Wei, you…”

This little brain of Wei Xiao’s was really the limit. He thought about how FTW’s boss was Lu Feng, and his voice grew even louder, “Indeed, I was born one of Close’s people, and I’ll die as Close’s ghost!”

Everyone in the banquet hall who could understand Chinese, “………………”

Bai Cai: F*ck, was there a crack in the floor? Laozi wanted to drill inside!
