"Hey, you still have the nerve to come to our class and cause trouble?" After class, Wang Qin glared at Lin Xu in the corridor, not at all politely.
Lin Xu's expression was indeed not good. He just couldn't understand how he could lose so badly to those fools from Class 8 that night!
"Hmph, we won one game, then you won one game. Now, we're at a tie," Lin Xu said with a cold laugh.
"Really good at making excuses for yourself. So, what do you want?" Wang Qin said.
"One final decisive game!" Lin Xu said through gritted teeth.
Everyone in the grade knew that Class 3 had lost to Class 8. People who played League of Legends in other classes were all talking about it, making Lin Xu, who always claimed to be the best League of Legends player at Shuilan Middle School, feel quite embarrassed!
"I knew you wouldn't be satisfied," Wang Qin said with a cold snort, slapping Yu Luosheng's shoulder heavily.
The implication was that with Yu Luosheng around, no matter how many games they played, they would always lose!
"Next week, this time both teams are allowed to invite one outside player. The bet will be doubled. Dare you or not?" Lin Xu said.
Doubling the bet would make it 2000 yuan, which was indeed a bit excessive as a stake among students.
"I'm just a poor guy, I can't afford to play with so much money," Wang Qin said, not losing his head.
"Then let's not bet money. Just one more game," Lin Xu said.
Wang Qin glanced at Yu Luosheng. Now, everyone in Class 8 who played League of Legends revolved around Yu Luosheng. It was better for him to decide.
"I'm not interested," Yu Luosheng firmly refused.
No matter how many more games they played, Lin Xu and his group of rookies would still lose. Yu Luosheng didn't want to waste his time on people he had already beaten to a pulp.
"You... so cowardly?" Lin Xu laughed coldly again.
Yu Luosheng didn't even bother to acknowledge him, shouldering his bag and walking away.
"Hmph, you don't even dare to fight anymore. I thought your Class 8 had improved, but you just got lucky and won one game, then you start acting like a coward?" Lin Xu began to mock.
Wang Qin was unhappy when he heard this, shouting, "Who are you calling a coward?"
"Who else? Then let's have one more game! You choose the time and place!" Lin Xu said.
"Fine, let's do it. I'll beat you to death!" Wang Qin felt that the last beating wasn't satisfying enough, and he needed to beat him a few more times, "Luosheng, right?"
"Fight yourself. I'm not playing," Yu Luosheng said directly.
"Damn, do you have to be like this?" Wang Qin was taken aback.
Yu Luosheng didn't bother with unnecessary talk. This kind of boring match was fine occasionally, but playing endlessly like this was meaningless.
Lin Xu watched Yu Luosheng walk away quickly, a flash of anger in his eyes!
He had finally managed to get Brother Mi to play, just to beat this guy, but now he refused to play. How could he vent his anger?
Yu Luosheng ignored these two and quickly disappeared into the crowd of students leaving school.
His pace was fast, as if he was trying to get away from Wang Qin, but it also looked like he was chasing someone.
"Hey, what a coincidence," Yu Luosheng smiled, looking sunny as he spoke to the girl passing by.
"What coincidence? I saw you chasing me all the way!" Yang Qianqian glared at Yu Luosheng angrily.
Yu Luosheng smiled awkwardly, realizing his intentions had been detected.
When Wang Qin and Lin Xu were arguing, Yu Luosheng had seen Yang Qianqian.
Usually, Yang Qianqian was always with other girls, but it was rare for her to be alone. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so Yu Luosheng ignored the two guys and quickly followed her.
There were actually quite a few boys walking beside Yang Qianqian, probably thinking about how to talk to this beauty. But then a creepy guy suddenly appeared and greeted her in such a lame way!
What a coincidence?
Coincidence my ass, the whole grade is here, and everyone crowds in this area after school!
"Are you coming this weekend?" Yu Luosheng asked.
Today was Friday, and after tomorrow, it would be another rare weekend.
"Probably not, my dad is taking me out to play," Yang Qianqian said.
"Oh, I have a match scheduled too," Yu Luosheng nodded.
Yang Qianqian glared at him, "Then why are you asking me!"
...
"Only two or three months until the college entrance exam. Where do you plan to go to college?" Yang Qianqian asked Yu Luosheng.
No matter what, the college entrance exam was the most important thing. No matter how good you were at games, it couldn't compare to academic performance.
"You're asking me?" Yu Luosheng said.
"Who else would I ask?" Yang Qianqian thought this guy was strange. She had approached him, but he seemed distracted.
"I don't know," Yu Luosheng said.
Which university to attend?
To be honest, Yu Luosheng was quite lost about this.
He didn't really care which university he went to, as he studied hard just to avoid disappointing his parents.
If his parents thought a certain university was prestigious and promising, then he would go there. Yu Luosheng didn't really care.
"You seem so aimless. Every time I see you at school, you look like you haven't woken up yet. Does school make you so sleepy?" Yang Qianqian pouted.
"You've been observing me?" Yu Luosheng was a bit flattered.
"Who's observing you!" Yang Qianqian said unhappily.
"Okay, next time when you secretly watch me, I'll pretend to be more energetic," Yu Luosheng said with a grin.
Yang Qianqian rolled her eyes, thinking this guy was shameless.
"I like Zhejiang University," Yang Qianqian brought the topic back to the main point.
"Oh, I prefer Shanghai."
"Why?"
Yu Luosheng didn't answer.
Yang Qianqian also played League of Legends, but she just treated it as a game.
However, Yu Luosheng, who had once been a professional e-sports player, found it hard to see it as just a game for entertainment.
He had promised his parents he wouldn't touch professional e-sports again, but deep down, he still had some fantasies about e-sports.
Shanghai was a place that placed more emphasis on e-sports in China.
If he could choose, Yu Luosheng would go to college in Shanghai. Even if he didn't touch professional e-sports again, feeling the e-sports atmosphere there would be great.
In Shanghai, Yu Luosheng had a few old friends.
It had been a year, and he missed them. He wondered if these DOTA veterans had started playing League of Legends.
They probably had, given how popular League of Legends was, with the Demacia culture sweeping the nation, from elementary school kids to elderly people, it felt like everyone was playing League of Legends.
They were all talented e-sports players, so there was no reason they wouldn't get involved.
Maybe they had already formed a team or were already part of a well-known team.
(Sorry, it was 40 degrees at home today, and there was no air conditioning. I almost had heatstroke and couldn't write. It wasn't until midnight when the temperature dropped that I felt better, so I hurriedly wrote and posted a chapter.)
