“VIT is the most enjoyable professional team to watch! They’re so aggressive and strong that even the commentators can’t keep up with the game!”

“Easy’s mid laner is so skilled that it’s hair-raising.”

“Everyone’s cooperation is perfect!”

The B-group match is a BO3, which means three games and two wins. VIT won the first game in five and a half minutes.

The second game was won in twenty minutes!

MIX was defeated with the fastest zero-closure record.

But it didn’t stop there. Three days later, another B-level team was also subjected to the same slaughter.

VIT didn’t reveal all their tactics, but they didn’t care either.

In national and even global leagues, 99% of teams still rely on coach BP and lineup suppression to play strategic battles. Only VIT has unconventional lineup systems, and every way of playing is baffling.

The only thing that hasn’t changed is their sharp and innovative style.

This is the advantage of AI training. In route analysis, unconventional strategies and planning often appear in order to find the fastest path.

Xiao Yin is responsible for testing and analysis, while Rong Yi replicates and upgrades it based on his experience and consciousness.

The two of them cooperate seamlessly.

In the third match, which is also the last round of the B group’s first round, VIT is facing a team called TET.

The league has introduced a home-and-away system, and TET is the home team for this round. According to the rules, VIT must travel to another city to participate in the game.

B City is located along the coast, with humid air and bustling streets.

On the plane, Hui Mao leaned over and asked, “Captain, is there anything we can point out about this team?”

Although the two training matches they just finished were both slaughter games, these kids had indeed become familiar with some standard systems in China.

In the league, some of the differences between the compositions in the S group and B group are only whether they can be used well and whether the players and operations are in place. Hui Mao and the others are smart kids who can quickly learn from one situation and apply it to another.

Rong Yi looked through TET’s latest starting lineup.

Soon, he came across a familiar name.

“TET. Cangcui. Their current team captain.”

Rong Yi thought for a moment, “This team is not weak in strength. The main reason they are facing us this season. Otherwise, they might have been the B group champions this year.”

Sitting to his left, Xiao Yin turned his head and asked, “What do you mean?”

“Cangcui was a mid laner who won the FMVP three years ago. At that time, he was very popular. Before joining TET, he was in the RS youth training program. He trained there at the same time as me, so we are both veterans in the league.”

“As far as I know, they have strengthened their coaching staff this season and are making major changes to their system, so the chances of them going up are still high. Fans are also paying close attention to this game.”

Rong Yi spoke and suddenly remembered to take out his phone. “Let me check what he’s been up to lately. How’s his condition? Maybe we can even make plans for dinner later.”

Xiao Yin also turned his head and watched quietly.

Rong Yi didn’t try to avoid him and opened a social media app and clicked on Cangcui’s profile. His profile was public, but the last update was during the Chinese New Year, with a simple New Year’s greeting. Apart from that, there was nothing else on his profile, except for a gray and white avatar.

Rong Yi’s phone was still old, and chat records from a few years ago were still saved.

As he scrolled up, the content was still from two or three years ago.

“Ah Yi, I’m leaving to play at TET.”

“I’ve arrived at the new base! Handing in my phone, remember to keep in touch!”

After that, there were no more messages until Cangcui won the FMVP.

Although both of them were in the gaming industry, as professional gamers, they were busy and under high pressure, causing many relationships to slowly fade away.

After getting off the plane, Rong Yi sent a big white goose emoticon as a greeting, but Cangcui didn’t reply, probably busy preparing for the game tomorrow.

Rong Yi didn’t think much of it, but when he put his phone back in his pocket, Xiao Yin suddenly asked, “Do you keep chat records from years ago?”

Rong Yi instinctively answered, “Yeah, I haven’t changed my phone and I don’t usually delete chat records… except for…”

Except for the time when Xiao Yin deleted his chat records.

Rong Yi secretly glanced at Xiao Yin, who had his head down and said in a low voice, “Give me your phone.”

Rong Yi didn’t understand, but obediently handed over his phone.

He saw Xiao Yin use his account to remove the restriction on viewing his moments and special attention.

Then Xiao Yin took out his own phone and began to send him messages in front of him.

“?”

Rong Yi watched as Xiao Yin typed and sent messages one after another at lightning speed, like a professional player.

【Yin】: “Are you the captain of the RS team today?”

【Yin】: “What do you want with me?”

【Yin】: “I’m free today.”

【Yin】: “Free.”



【Yin】: “Is it still hurting? I’ll be gentle next time.”

【Yin】: “What about this time? Does it still hurt?”

【Yin】: “Where should I pick you up? The aquarium again?”



As he read the messages, Rong Yi’s face turned redder and redder. They didn’t chat much when they were dating. Xiao Yin was a reserved person and only exchanged a few sentences with him every day. Rong Yi, on the other hand, frequently sent emojis and shared funny things.

As Xiao Yin sent one message after another, Rong Yi recalled their past conversations.

Xiao Yin stopped at the point where they broke up and didn’t send any more messages. He was indeed a top student with an excellent memory.

Xiao Yin turned off his phone and said, “I remember every message you sent me.”

Rong Yi’s face became warm. He looked away and gazed out of the window into the pitch-black night. As he turned his head, he saw his reflection in the window. Xiao Yin was staring at him.

“I always feel like you’re avoiding me.”

Xiao Yin suddenly spoke softly, his voice so low that Rong Yi almost thought he had misheard.

He turned to look, only to see that Xiao Yin had leaned back against the car pillow, tilting his head back, revealing his beautiful Adam’s apple, his eyes closed as if dozing off.

The next day, the match was held as scheduled.

As the most promising team, TET had indeed changed their playstyle and tactics from their previous opponents. They no longer focused on slaughtering the enemy, but instead had a more planned and calculated approach to their lineup and strategy.

TET’s top laner followed Xiao Yin, while their mid and support controlled the bottom lane, and their jungler constantly attempted to limit Rong Yi, achieving better results compared to other teams.

Despite their efforts, they couldn’t seem to control him.

Cang Cui was also Rong Yi’s old opponent, they both came from the same youth training camp and even played mid lane before they became starters. Compared to many others, he had a better understanding of Rong Yi, and played a crucial role in limiting him, holding him down tightly.

“Yi Shen is really getting shut down hard this game,” Ci She sighed while comfortably farming under Rong Yi’s command, “Does anyone have time to help him?”

Hui Mao replied, “I think you’re pretty free, why don’t you go out and attract some firepower?”

Ci She slid to his knees to apologize, “I was wrong.”

Wu Dao Gu said, “Fight two on one, don’t CUE.”

Xiao Yin spoke softly, “Shall I go?”

“No need,” replied Rong Yi calmly despite being pressured, “I can handle it.”

Xiao Yin didn’t say anything and instead went to farm in the jungle, enduring the 4-1 pressure and successfully completing a full jungle clear.

This was their unspoken agreement – they could help each other out, but they could also handle things alone and carry the team on their backs.

With their coordination, even Cangcui started to struggle. He couldn’t handle the 2v1 situation, and the pace of the game slowed down. The mid lane was held down firmly by Rong Yi, while the bottom lane took the opportunity to push through.

After the game, the TET team members all sighed in unison. Captain Cangcui put his hands on the keyboard and sent the final in-game message, “good game.”

“Easy was really hard to play against.”

With this victory, VIT had a perfect record of wins and no losses in Group B, easily securing their spot in the A Group for the next round.

After hearing the referee announce the end of the game, Rong Yi also let out a sigh of relief and lowered his head to stretch his slender, fair fingertips.

Although it was just a match in Group B, he was accustomed to considering various risk situations, making it hard for him to completely relax. After these intense days of competition, he was indeed a little tired.

But he was very happy with the result of the game.

As this match in Group B involved qualifying for the next stage, one of the commentators on site was Lin Yi, who happened to have a good relationship with Captain Cangcui. So, Rong Yi planned to invite the two of them out for a meal together.

“Is the captain going out on a date? You don’t care about us anymore,” hissed Ci She, trying to act cute with its mouth.

Hui Mao added, “QwQ.”

Wu Dao Gu cleared his throat and said, “We know. We’ll be obedient and won’t cause any trouble for the captain.”

Rong Yi had gotten used to this bunch of lively and mischievous teammates, “I’ll bring back some barbecue and pickled vegetables for you guys when I come back. You can all have some free time before tomorrow.”

“Yay!” Hui Mao and Ci She hugged each other and cheered, and they immediately started to discuss going for hotpot and visiting an amusement park with Wu Dao Gu.

Xiao Yin lowered his head and talked to the operations staff about data-related matters without looking up, but he asked, “Aren’t you coming back tonight?”
