Chapter 64: What kind of ‘captivating team-killer’ was this?!

Out of the 18 teams there, over 90% of them were now confused and stunned.

Why had they all picked FTW? Was it because of Close?

However, two years ago, FTW had to rely on Close’s solo games in order to obtain training matches!

Why had they exploded in popularity this year?

They then went to look at FTW’s points, and it wasn’t anything worth fighting over.

Let alone 4th place, they weren’t even 6th.

They were a 7th place team. Was it so important to choose them?

And the key point was, all of the top three teams had locked in FTW?

Why!

They didn’t get it. Nobody understood it.

Only the players who’d ended up in games with Wei Xiao and Bai Cai by chance, and also encountered Gary and Kim Sung-hyun as well as Asleep could make an approximate guess.

Although they couldn’t understand Chinese, the atmosphere of those games were still fresh in their memories…

If it had been up to them, well, they’d also want to fight against that berserker thief!

After the free match session, L&P, Pro, and 3U had all held a brief team meeting.

L&P training room.

Gary slapped the table, “FTW! Laozi wants revenge!”

The coach was quite rational, “They’re 7th place, and they have a pitiful amount of points. Winning against them won’t add much to the prize pool.”

Gary: “I just want to fight him!”

Yuan Ze had always had a bad sense of humor. Usually, he would purposely play with Old G by choosing the opposite, but today––

He voted with Gary, “FTW, then. It’s quite meaningful.”

He hadn’t encountered Wei Xiao in the free matching, but he’d run into Close.

Sure enough, compared with being teammates, he was more interested in being Close’s opponent.

Both cores of the team had spoken. The coach thought about it and said, “Alright, FTW is really different this year.”

The small bonus in the bonus pool wasn’t something that the rich and powerful teams cared too much about.

What’s more, if they really wanted to snatch money, they should do it in the last few days. Right now was just the beginning, and they weren’t in a hurry. It was a good idea to first feel out their potential opponents.

So, L&P chose FTW. At this moment, they really hadn’t expected that there would be ‘unforeseen events’ in this training match!

The situation on the Pro side was similar.

Kim Sung-hyun hadn’t said anything about it on the surface, and he looked like he didn’t care, but he’d already written down the word ‘Quiet’ in the little book in his heart.

This jungler, oh, this future jungler, or whatever… he was going to nip him in the bud!

On the 3U side, they actually discussed it for a long time.

Asleep: “Zzzz…”

Cong Yi: “FTW.”

Manager Zhou thought about it, “Making it to the training grounds wasn’t easy. We should choose some of the foreign teams.”

Cong Yi understood his mind. Making an appointment for a training match with FTW was very simple, and the fans wouldn’t be very interested in watching it. If they could win against a foreign team, the fans would be willing to spend more.

Cong Yi: “Fourth place is Europe’s Black Knights, fifth is the Korean competition zone’s New, sixth is North America’s PB. They’re all strong teams. What should we do if we lose?”

One sentence was enough to poke at Manager Zhou’s sore spot, “Their points…”

Cong Yi sneered, “You can’t really think that just because our points rank us in third place, we’re actually third when it comes to strength amongst the 18 teams.”

Manager Zhou: “……”

3U’s coach spoke up, “FTW, they’re very different this year. It’s quite a good idea to try them out in advance.”

So it was decided like this.

The three teams responsible for submitting their ‘choices’ had never even dreamed that the other two teams would also choose FTW!

They’d all thought that choosing FTW would be an unexpected choice. Yet as a result…

They actually ended up ‘all over the street’?!

Wei Xiao’s cheerful appearance gave Chen Feng a headache, “Would you not be tired after having to fight three games!”

Wei Xiao was surprised, “It’s only three games, what’s there to be tired about?”

Chen Feng: “…………”

Oh, you’re the one who can solo for 48 hours straight. Your energy levels are different from normal people.

Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle had already agreed to go double queue. Now…

Wei Xiao inspired his teammates, “It’s alright, all enemies are but paper tigers. We just have to go up and fight. We kill one, we earn one!”

The two little ones: “……”

Although they were a little flustered, they somehow also started to look forward to it a little?

After all, it was really cool being fought for by all three of the top three teams.

The competition committee itself was stunned a bit silly when faced with this kind of result.

They’d set up this rule so that different teams would be put together. Regardless of whether it was for the live broadcast or for training purposes, it was more exciting to have more teams participating.

What the hell was up with the three teams all fighting over the team in the seventh place?

Have you guys ever considered the feelings of the fourth, fifth, and sixth place teams?!

They worked so hard to accumulate so many points and were just waiting to be picked, yet as a result… they were just ‘skipped over’?

The fourth place team was especially confused.

Before coming over, the coach had even given them some psychological preparation, “We have the most points. Be careful, we might be picked by all three teams.”

The Black Knights who’d already been mentally prepared, “What?”

This wasn’t anything like what they’d talked about!

The competition committee quickly tried to fix this ‘bug’, “The first three teams can’t choose the same team.”

L&P, Pro, and 3U: “???”

Wei Xiao was more anxious than they were, “Why!”

It hadn’t been easy for him and Bai Cai to fill up their aggro meters, yet they weren’t actually allowed to deal DPS. That was too much!

The people in charge in the competition committee couldn’t hear Wei Xiao’s words. Otherwise, they would be coughing up blood.

They were doing this for FTW’s good. It was only the first day of training, yet the strong teams were all lining up to hammer them. How could FTW continue to play after that?

The competition committee revised the loophole in its rules, “From tomorrow on, the choices will be considered based on priority. The team ranked first has first choice, followed by the second and third place team’s choices, and they must all pick different teams.”

Gary was happy, “We’re first, so we can choose first!”

L&P was situated near the front, and everyone could hear Gary’s voice.

The person in charge was just about to speak.

Kim Sung-hyun stepped up onto the stage. His face was cold and beautiful as he said, “The rules will come into effect tomorrow. How come L&P will get to choose first?”

He stressed the word ‘tomorrow’, emphasizing that he had no intention of giving in.

Gary also stepped up, “Because we’re number one!”

Kim Sung-hyun’s eyelashes drooped, and the angle of his eyes matched with his tear mole. He appeared arrogant and willful, “If this regulation was known in advance, would we be second?”

The meaning behind the words was, in order to snatch FTW… oh, wait, in order to have first choice, they would have rushed for first place.

Gary had wanted to continue arguing, but 3U’s vice-captain Cong Yi also came up, “We also don’t approve of L&P making an appointment with FTW.”

Gary’s half-assed Chinese came out, “You…”

Cong Yi’s Chinese was much faster than his, “Since the rules will come into effect tomorrow, today should be a different story.”

Gary was attacked by enemies on both sides. He stuttered for a long time and finally came up with, “How about… how about letting FTW choose!”

Yuan Ze didn’t want to look on anymore. He was just glad that he hadn’t gone up.

Countless contestants off-stage, “???”

Everyone in FTW: “…………”

However, this matter made Wei Xiao worried to death, “This is too hard, I want all three of them.”

Someone knocked on his head. Wei Xiao turned his head blankly.

Lu Feng glanced at him out of the corner of his eye.

Wei Xiao’s radar was up and functional, and he instantly realized that his captain was getting angry, “Captain, you also think it’s overboard, right? What gives them the right? It really wasn’t easy for us to get three training matches, why…”

Lu Feng flicked his forehead.

Wei Xiao: “!”

Lu Feng lowered his voice. “Quiet.”

Wei Xiao: “Yes?” He leaned over to put his ear closer.

Lu Feng stared at his small and cute white earlobe and shifted his gaze, “Be quiet.”

Wei Xiao: “………………”

He’d thought that the captain was calling him over to whisper something to him!

The competition committee was very worried.

Letting FTW choose was an earth-shakingly terrible idea!

The original intention of this point ranking was to let the teams who had worked hard to rush to the forefront of the rankings select their teams for training matches. Yet as a result… the team that was ranked 7th and hadn’t even made it into the top 6, would now be given ‘priority choice’?

Why should they do that! Wouldn’t that turn this point system into nothing but a frivolous decoration?!

The competition committee would never agree to this, but L&P, Pro, and 3U were all taking it seriously, and none of them would give in to the others.

In the final analysis, the blame for this situation belonged to the competition committee, and the teams were indeed a little wronged.

However, injustice was one thing, but obsession was something else.

The people beneath the stage were really about to die from curiosity. What exactly was this?!

The three teams with the top scores had actually started fighting over a team who’d come in 7th.

What kind of damned charm did FTW have?!

The teams who didn’t get why this was happening were a little anxious.

It was fortunate that this segment wasn’t being broadcast live.

Otherwise, the Chinese domestic Glory circle would create a clip and amuse themselves with it for the entire year.

––What kind of ‘captivating team-killer’ was this?! To make so many people lose their heads over them!

Finally, the competition committee proposed a method that worked for everything.

A draw.

Nobody was willing to let go of the chance, and based on the premise of ‘protecting’ FTW, the competition committee could only come up with such a countermeasure.

The three teams would draw lots. Whoever drew the one that had FTW written on it would play a training match with them!

Gary was the most dissatisfied one, “We’re clearly in first place.”

Kim Sung-hyun: “Go back and ask Old Shi how he managed to get first place.”

If it hadn’t been for Close, would he have been able to get first place?!

Originally, Pro had been ahead of L&P. It was all because of that earlier doubles game where Yuan Ze and Close had formed a team and had each taken three points, while Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran had both lost and had six points deducted from their team.

That was why L&P had managed to turn around.

The host was really afraid of this group of ancestors and hurriedly said, “Come, draw lots!”

It just so happened that there were three people representing the three teams up on the stage. They directly went to draw on behalf of their respective teams.

Gary said, “We’re number one, we’ll go first!”

Then, without waiting for the other two people to react, he reached in and picked out a ball.

He pulled it out and opened it…

The host announced the result, “Blank.”

Gary was so angry that he was about to spiral up into the sky!

Kim Sung-hyun and Li Heran’s fans in China had given them a CP name, the Koi CP.

Kim Sung-hyun’s Chinese was very good. He naturally understood the meaning of the Koi CP.

Koi represented good luck, too.

God Kim made his move.

The host announced the result, “Blank!”

Kim Sung-hyun: “…………”

Damn it, only when he and Li Heran were together did they form ‘koi’. On his own, he was just half a fish. He’d made a mistake!

Unfortunately, there was no way to redo his choice.

Cong Yi won without fighting. His position was stable.

The host followed up enthusiastically, “Congratulations 3U…”

She realized that this wasn’t quite right as she said the words. What was she congratulating them for? How could the lofty top three teams have been reduced to this kind of miserable situation!

The host changed her words, “Well, in that case, let’s have the FTW team’s and 3U team’s starters all come up onto the stage!”

This result left Wei Xiao a little disappointed.

It wasn’t that he was disappointed with their brother team, but the difference in going from three to one was too big! How could anyone not be disappointed!

While Wei Xiao was complaining to Bai Cai in a low voice, Bai Cai’s face was expressionless, “No, I don’t feel disappointed at all.” He even felt very fortunate. He wasn’t ready to fight against those two beastly teams!

When they got up onto the stage, Gary and Kim Sung-hyun had just been about to step down.

These two were very dissatisfied. Unfortunately, there was nothing they could do about it. Luck was really something that depended on fate.

Wei Xiao was particularly able to understand their mood. He comforted them loudly when they passed each other, “Don’t be discouraged, you can work hard tomorrow and try to get first place on the scoreboard. That way, you can pick us first!”

Kim Sung-hyun and Gary: “……………………….”

They were all on the stage, and Wei Xiao hadn’t lowered his voice. It had been captured by the microphone nearby.

All the contestants at the scene: “???”

FTW’s new top-laner.

He had a devil’s logic!
