Chapter 9

Qiao Yanzhou and the allied jungler coincidentally score 11/1/11 and

1/11/1 at the end of the game with Qiao Yanzhou receiving the

well-deserved MVP of the match.

Of course, this is his first MVP since he started streaming for hours

in the afternoon. He scans through his chat window and finds his

viewers getting less toxic. His victory is also a hard smack in the

face of those who said that he was being carried.

Though the game ended, the war between these two is still ongoing…

FlowerPrince: come lets 1v1

FlowerPrince: let daddy teach u a thing or two

Qiao Yanzhou is seriously getting a stomach ache in front of his

computer from laughing too hard. He eats two mouthfuls of cup noodles

and even chokes while drinking the soup.

No more words, he sits up straight and cannot wait to enter the

created by the opponent. Qiao Yanzhou chooses Rek’Sai

without any hesitation.

This is also known as The Siler’s Special.

Typically, when Siler thrashes another mid laner hard in the first

match, in the next game he does not hesitate to choose the same

champion as his opponent in the previous match… and continues to

beat the crap out of him.

This is how Siler “schools” the opponent in playing a certain

champion, an effective way to completely crush the enemy

psychologically.

However, whenever this happens, the “Mother Theresa” type of fan

chides Siler for being too narcissistic and disrespectful to the

opponent after the game and demands an apology.

Hah, what a joke. Siler is capable enough to be narcissistic, so

why should he apologise?

Very soon, FlowerPrince is also finished selecting a champion. But

Qiao Yanzhou is stunned when he sees the loading screen.

FlowerPrince chose Lissandra, the Ice Witch.

That punk actually dares to choose a mage champion with his

more-misses-than-hits mechanics? Qiao Yanzhou shakes his head and

feels a little sorry for him.

Sigh… such arrogance and ignorance…

When the game starts, Qiao Yanzhou buys a and grabs

a potion before walking towards the mid lane. Typically, he would get

instead to play it safe, but facing such an

opponent, Qiao Yanzhou feels he doesn't have to.

Although Qiao Yanzhou has never laned against him, just as expected,

he is playing in such a cowardly manner that it is becoming amusing.

After killing two minions, Qiao Yanzhou sees a message in the

dialogue window.

[ThoseStolenBlueBuffs is spectating]

ThoseStolenBlueBuffs: custom game?

BoatIdlingBy: yeah, teaching my boy to respect his daddy

ThoseStolenBlueBuffs: wow

Seeing that the Master himself is online again and even taking the

initiative to talk to him (though not much), Qiao Yanzhou feels

relieved.

Actually, it would be extremely difficult for Rek’Sai, the champion

that Qiao Yanzhou selected, to win over Lissandra in the early game.

Rei’Sai has a much shorter attacking range, deals lesser damage and

even has to risk losing some health by taking a combo of Lissandra’s

attacks just to kill minions.

But this opponent doesn’t seem to realise this and take an

advantage of it. He continues to farm safely under the turret.

He even misses a minion now and then.

Qiao Yanzhou feels that this 1v1 has become rather meaningless and

keeps still beside a minion wave.

Rei’Sai has a funny action command: after pressing Ctrl + 1, this

Void Burrower will stamp his feet making a “boom” sound.

Qiao Yanzhou starts triggering the command by

pressing Ctrl +1 whenever FlowerPrince misses one minion. Hence, the

game screen goes:

-When he misses one minion

“Boom!”

-Misses the second one

“Boom! Boom!”

-Misses the third one

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Qiao Yanzhou is laughing so hard that his stomach

hurts even more, he can even feel his instant noodles coming out from

his nose.

But even in this situation, Qiao Yanzhou still

manages to win 20 CS more than his opponent.

The opponent realizes that he is being humiliated

and casts the to stun Rek’Sai. Ice gathers

around Rek’Sai’s feet before Lissandra throws a spear of ice.

“Aw, damn!” Qiao Yanzhou was almost going to

lie down and chill as he did not expect his enemy to attack in rage

and humiliation.

He waits till the frozen ability is over and

launches a burst of attacks at Lissandra before giving her a hard

bite. Lissandra is taken aback by the attacks and retreats behind the

minion wave.

Rek’Sai then burrows into the ground and

retreats to the turret as well, before recalling back to base.

“What a jump scare.” Qiao Yanzhou mutters. He

notices the amount of gold he has gained.

All the farming just now was enough for him for

buy a small item, but Qiao Yanzhou is torn between a defensive item

to continue bullying his opponent and a damage item to finish up the

game.

In the end, Qiao Yanzhou decides on getting the

damage item.

He leaves the base and swiftly moves to the mid

lane by diving and making a tunnel but does not see the FlowerPrince

anywhere.

“Now, what is this brat up to…”

After 20 seconds, the opponent shows up again, and

Qiao Yanzhou can’t contain his laughter anymore after seeing him.

The enemy is carrying a blue buff with half of his

health left, and his body is glowing with green light as he recovers

with a potion.

Needless to say, this smart aleck went to take on

the blue buff alone and has almost gotten himself killed by it.

Qiao Yanzhou bangs the table as he laughs. What

a retard! Am I playing with a monkey?!

Unable to stand any more of such stupidity, Qiao

Yanzhou does not give Lissandra any chance to kill, or rather, miss

any more minions. Instead, he flashes in and bites the enemy, taking

away more than half of the remaining health before the potion could

recover any more health.

Lissandra wants to cast a and claw

Rek’Sai, but she manages to side-step and successfully dodge the

skill.

Rek’Sai then follows up with a which

makes her untargetable and gives her a series of attacks that push

Lissandra into an inescapable fate. Now, Qiao Yanzhou is only an

auto-attack away from killing his opponent, but he makes a tunnel and

retreats to the turret.

Rek’Sai stomps her feet at the turret.

“Boom!”

First Blood!

It turns out that Qiao Yanzhou used the Ignite

spell on Lissandra just 0.1 seconds before he tunneled away. He

reaches the turret

just in time for the spell to

take away Lissandra’s remaining health.

The blue buff that Lissandra painstakingly took is

now on Rek’Sai.

[All] BoatIdlingBy (Rek’Sai): thank u sir for

the blue buff!

FlowerPrince (Lissandra) leaves the match

“Tsk.” Qiao Yanzhou sees his opponent fleeing with tail between his legs and says, "Why bring this upon yourself?!

At EG Esports Club.

Gu Zixing stares at the computer screen slightly

amused by how Rek’Sai has managed to make a fool of that Lissandra.

“Whose match are you watching? You look so

serious.” Qi Chen walks in and gets curious as he sees Gu Zixing

staring intently at the computer monitor.

“Nobody’s.” Gu Zixing turns around and looks

at Qi Chen. “Done with your push-ups yet?”

“Nah.” Qi Chen gulps down a mouthful of water.

“I’m only done with one creep’s.”

“A hundred?”

“A leg of it.”

“Fifty?”

“A hair of the leg.”

“Wow.”

Gu Zixing snickers.

“Why am I the only one doing push-ups when

everyone has their own share of mistakes?!” Qi Chen plops down on

the sofa in Gu Zixing’s room.

“Because you are our dearest little darling!”

“Don’t make me gag,” Qi Chen says, rolling

his eyes. “Coach Chen is now letting you off because he is making a

request from you. Otherwise…”

Gu Zixing does not answer.

“So… did you give him an answer?” Seeing

that Gu Zixing is avoiding the subject, Qi Chen questions him

directly.

Gu Zixing frowns and says, “You’re annoying.”

“Okay okay okay, no more questions.” Qi Chen

notices a familiar ID on Gu Zixing’s monitor as he comes closer.

“BoatIdlingBy…” Qi Chen thinks for a second

and it dawns on him. “Ohmylord! Are you keen on this guy?”

“Take a look at his positioning and movement

predictions.” Gu Zixing points at the monitor and explains, “I

played another game with him after you left, and his game sense isn’t

bad.”

“You like him?”

“Not really.”

“Don’t be stubborn,” Qi Chen chuckles.

“Wanna ask HR to find out more?”

“Maybe next time.”

“Oh c’mon, are you that shy…” Qi Chen

cannot stand Gu Zixing being overly reserved and always hiding

everything at times.

But before Qi Chen can continue, someone knocks on

Gu Zixing’s door.

Yao Le appears this time around.

Qi Chen is mildly surprised, but he takes a look

at Yao Le and Gu Zixing before standing up.

“I’ll go now. You guys can talk.” Qi Chen

heads out leaving Gu Zixing and Yao Le alone in the room.

Gu Zixing remains silent. He stands up and takes a

bottle of drink from the shelf and puts it in front of Yao Le before

sitting on the computer chair.

“Yes?”

“Coach told me about it…”

“Oh.” Gu Zixing lights up a cigarette looking

uninterested.

Yao Le sighs and says, “Zixing, I know you’re

unhappy with me. But this arrangement is made by the higher-ups. No

matter how god-like you are in game, you can’t possibly not follow

their instructions.”

Gu Zixing looks up, and Yao Le zones out

momentarily as his eyes meet Gu Zixing’s innocent-looking puppy

eyes with long lashes. Yao Le swiftly shifts his gaze away in the

next second. But this unnatural avoidance in eye contact makes the

atmosphere even more awkward than it is.

“Our personal grudge or the team’s survival,

you make the call.” Yao Le stands up and pushes the door after

finishing his piece.

Before coming to this room, Yao Le had come up

with hundred and one things to tell Gu Zixing, but he swallows

everything the moment he sees Gu Zixing. He has a strong feeling that

he will be eaten alive if he does not leave this place immediately.

Maybe it is because only Yao Le knows that this

man is not as innocent and pure as he seems.

Just as Yao Le is leaving the room, he hears Gu

Zixing’s cold voice.

“I don't mind being the ADC.”

Yao Le spins around in surprise when he hears

that. He sees Gu Zixing looking at him while leaning on the back of

the computer chair with a smirk across his face.

“But I demand my support to kneel down and lick my feet.”
