Chapter 356: Playing in the Hangzhou Competition!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The speed of the news spreading on the internet was very fast, and following the official announcement, Team Sky immediately gained many haters.

After they were removed from the competition, they didn’t show themselves in front of crowds anymore. Even when streaming normally, they would only be bad-mouthed by many people.

On the internet, Xu Pingyang was scolded like crazy, and it was said that until now, he was still under investigation by the police. Due to the fact that he had tempered with their public safety system, he would not be let off so easily.

Before, you might be able to see Xu Pingyang in Team Sky’s stream once in the blue moon, but after they were removed, Xu Pingyang probably wouldn’t be showing himself anytime soon. Even the rest of Team Sky’s players were not able to participate in any sponsorships.

Just because of this incident, everything changed for Team Sky, and at the same time, the team which was constantly getting stronger, Team Daemons, were getting more and more attention!

In the spring season competition, not to anyone’s surprise, Team Daemons had won first place once again, followed by Team 71.

After the spring season competition, the All-Star competition was next!

The main picks for Mid were Ancient Dust, Xie Yi, and Hades. With overwhelming votes, Hades took the mid laner spot of the All-Star competition.

After that, it was the votes for the ADC position, and there were only Asmodai and Bai Feng contesting for this spot.


Bai Feng’s solo skills were stronger than Asmodai, but because of his many years of teamwork with Team Daemons, Asmodai’s teamwork and strategy was much better than Bai Feng, resulting in their votes being almost the same, and no one could really tell who would get into the All-Star.

The coming of All-Star made many people excited.

The internet gossip comes and goes very quickly, and thus, following Team Skycrown’s disappearance from the media, this Team which had butchered the other team in the LPL had also become forgotten with the passing of the All-Star competition.

Sometimes, some people would be curious during the voting session. Where was the ADC that treated Team Sky’s members like mere AI? Why was he not chosen for the All-Star?

After that one match, Team Skycrown had really disappeared.

There were no traces of them in any other competitions, and they were also gone from the ranks.

The people who still remembered Team Skycrown started to have discussions, would this team be disbanded due to their competition rights being revoked?

Disbandment…

From a normal person’s perspective, disbandment might be their fate. Not getting sponsored and not getting the prize money and financial support that they needed to obtain…

They weren’t even able to join the LPL anymore. If the top of the world was their aim, they had finally lost their means now.

But, has this team really disbanded?

If they had not, where were they now!?

After a long time, September finally came. The Hangzhou West Lake was one of the most famous tourist attractions at this time of the year.

The lake area was filled with couples sitting together, looking at the mountains and water in the distance, making it seem as though the whole world belonged to them.

Luocheng, as an honorable early graduate of his university, would never do such inappropriate actions in public. Such as his hand which was holding onto Qianqian’s slim waist slipping down inch by inch…

“Idiot!” Yang Qianqian pinched Luocheng’s hand, glaring at him playfully.

Without them realizing, Qianqian was already a second-year in university. Normally, September was the time when school would start, but not long after she had started university, she had gotten word that Luocheng had come to Hangzhou. Hence, they decided to meet at the west lake, having a very sweet encounter.

After playing in the LPL, Luocheng had begun his studies in Shanghai. This request had been made by his parents. Since Luocheng only needed to write the proposal, after sending a copy back home, it did not matter if his parents signed it, as he had already made up his mind.

Luocheng was exempted from paying the fees for his second year. Taking into consideration the fact that Luocheng had brought back very important extra marks, the school had agreed to let Luocheng continue his studies provided he could pass all his subjects.

And so, Luocheng was able to attend university like normal. During the times that he went to Shanghai for his training, he would go back to school often too.

However, after realizing he was being watched by many people, Luocheng would be extra careful when going back to the university.

In his fellow students’ eyes, he was basically a God!

There were also some retards who went straight into a ranked match after shaking his hand, as if it gave them some godly luck to be able to reach the gold rank.

Regardless, Luocheng still had to do it as it was safer for him to go back to school.

“Anyway, if you guys want to play in a competition, why not join Shanghai’s competition?” Qianqian asked.

“There is not enough prize money in the competition. If we get to be the champion of the state, we will only obtain some skins, and if we were to emerge as district champions, we will only get ten thousand bucks.” Luocheng replied.

“Wow, you guys have finally come out! With all these competitions, why don’t you join the city’s LPL competition?” Qianqian asked enthusiastically.

After Team Skycrown left the LPL, they had not appeared anymore. Qianqian had wanted to see Luocheng many times but she never had the chance to.

She only heard from Lee Meiqi that they were training secretly, and this secret training lasted for six months!

Half a year of training, Qianqian could not comprehend where these guys got their motivation from. They could shut themselves off from the world and train for six months, and where did they get the money for their expenses?

“Yes, it is almost time. There is a competition organizer that told us that if we were to emerge as champions in the district competition, they would pay us thirty thousand dollars and even throw in five high-tech LPL gaming gear. The condition is that we have to represent their cybercafe in Zhejiang, Hangzhou.” Luocheng continued.

“A represented match? Why don’t you guys represent Team Skycrown to play? Why not just join the competition, get the title of the district champion, and then also win the nation’s competition? There might even be a cash prize of two hundred thousand dollars!” Qianqian was quick to understand what was going on.

“They are a new cybercafe, right here in Hangzhou. They must have spent money to invite us to play for the fame they would be getting. Although thirty thousand dollars might not be much, we really want those gaming gears from the bottom of our hearts.” Luocheng said.

High-tech gaming gear!!!

How many times had they died in the game or lost the match just because their computers froze? Losing their ranks because of the bluescreen was just unbearable!

For LOL, they did not need high specs for the gear. But just because of the lag, or connection problems during a ranked match, it may cause impulsive behavior toward family, marriage, and the peace and harmony of the family.

All in all, their gaming gear was really important to them. If Team Skycrown didn’t obtain good gear, how would they win against the Taiwan Team!?

“Going first into the weekly tournament, and then the monthly tournament, right?” Qianqian asked.

“Correct, so I will be in the state for around a month. The next time I come, we might just stay here for two days for the monthly match.”

“Let me take some days off to be with you guys. I heard that a few of my seniors have joined the City competition, I really pity them.” Qianqian said.

“Why is that so?” Luocheng asked, puzzled.

“They will have to go against you.” Qianqian said with a smug look on her face.

Luocheng started to laugh uncontrollably.

Oh, so that was the reason. Under normal circumstances, Team Skycrown would not join these kinds of competitions. Even if they wanted the two hundred thousand dollars of prize money, they would appear right in Shanghai for the competition, and not in Hangzhou.

If someone were to blame, it would be the rich owner of the LOL cybercafe in Hangzhou. Five complete sets of high-end gaming gear!

Luocheng could only apologize in his heart: I’m sorry, people of Hangzhou!

“If it is true, then the owner of the cybercafe must have had a very happy look on his face when your Team accepted the offer.” Qianqian laughed as she said that.

Team Skycrown, the team which had stepped into the heavens before, the team which had tortured Team Sky, the team which had also come to this kind of place for a city competition, while currently representing a cybercafe…

Who knew what the players in Hangzhou’s city match had done in their past lives to be treated like this?

Qianqian was also praying that her seniors and friends who were competing would not be going up against Luocheng.

If they really went up against him and his team, it would not be as easy as just getting tortured.

Taking into account the fact that the living conditions of Team Skycrown were just average, Luocheng took Qianqian back to her school and promised to meet tomorrow when the match started.

Okay, Luocheng admitted that Qianqian was the one who wanted to go back to school, and he had nothing to say to ask her to stay.

There was a match tomorrow, it would be best if he did not partake in any rigorous activities…

September in Hangzhou was still very hot.

Next to the road in the commercial district was a place called “Fishy Café”.

That’s right, it was a cybercafe!

To be honest, this cybercafe was indeed high end, and when Team Skycrown stepped in, they thought it was a freshly renovated coffee shop.

The shining covers, the white-as-marble curtains, the milk-colored computers!

The seats were organized in such a way that there would be no smoke and harm caused by the clean and neat computers. Japanese-style toilets, the half see-through dividers, the fish-patterned ceiling, the cherrywood floor…

The five members of Team Skycrown were all flabbergasted!

This was a cybercafe!?

In their eyes, a cybercafe was a place that was filled with cigarette butts on the ground, mist everywhere, the chair would be missing a leg, the table would be half-broken with a torn mousepad, and the place would be filled with people sporting all sorts of hairstyles and colors!

How…how was this place so completely different? This completely changed the view of Team Skycrown toward cybercafes.

Playing the competition in this environment would make them feel as though they had already gotten into the big leagues!

“Are you here for the competition?” Standing beside the door, a teenager in his team shirt looked at Luocheng and his team.


“Yes, we are.” Lin Dong nodded.

“First time? Try not to block the door next time, alright?” The teenager said.

After saying that, this person wearing a team shirt which was sponsored by a random company walked to the bar and pulled out his gold card as if he had done so many times before, while flirting with the waitress. Judging by his swagger, it was obvious that he was a regular here.

That feeling, it seemed like his standard of normal living had long surpassed many people!

After he had walked further away, Da Luo came back to his senses and started complaining, “D*mn, he is such an *sshole.”

“Since I’ve already remembered his team name, it doesn’t matter for now.” Lin Dong replied, a slight smirk on his face.

“Should we let Luocheng have a go at him?” Da Luo asked.

When seeing someone act like a douchebag, letting Luocheng have a go at him seemed like a great idea!

“What ‘have a go’!”
