You're Beautiful When You Smile

CHAPTER 117

Lu Sicheng removed his hand from the camera, took a glance at the computer screen, and happened to see one of the bullet comments-- --

[You two go ahead and show your PDA. Next week you'll be facing Team Alpha, make sure you show us what you can do or else, suffer the consequences hehe.]

Lu Sicheng pursed his lips. Tong Yao also saw it and embarrassedly lifted her hands to pull her hair behind her ears-- --Old K, who had just woken up and turned on his computer to get ready to play duos with Old Cat, was also watching Tong Yao's stream. He saw the comment and cursed: "To hell with him, why hasn't the mod banned the person! How does that have anything to do with you and their PDA."

"...............................You still have time to watch our mid streaming, can't you come to the top to gank!" Old Cat kicked Old K's chair. "Lately, you really don't like ganking the top. If you do that to me in a competition, I'll kill you."

"Coming, coming. Are you retarded? Can't survive without me." Old K logged off Tong Yao's stream."The second round of group matches is almost over. There's only YQCB left which is a tough team." Lu Sicheng said flatly: "Let's make the effort to win. Get on top of both groups and show them just who they're talking to."As he talked, the corner of his lips was curved up with a contemptuous expression on his face.Tong Yao couldn't turn off the mic in time.The bullet comments immediately reacted-- --

[YQCB is quite strong nowadays.]

[The fateful showdown between Lu Sicheng and Li Junhe, 666666666]

[Fans of YQCB are trembling......I'll skip class to watch the game that day.]

[I'm waiting to see the trolls getting slapped, hahahahaha]

[Don't be overly confident, you might get slapped instead.]

Tong Yao checked the comments and turned to look at her captain: "......You're quite full of yourself."

Lu Sicheng: "It's just an aspiring goal. Why do you say I'm full of myself?"

Tong Yao: "......"

The rule for professional League of Legends competitions is that twelve teams will be divided into two groups, six teams in each group. The competition is divided into three phases: The first phase is round-robin within each group. The second phase is a round-robin between the two groups. The third phase is a round-robin within each group again-- --After the three phases, the team that won the best of 3 matches gets one point and gets no points if they lost. All the teams will be ranked by their accumulated points. The top four teams from each group will be able to move on to the playoffs. As of now, ZGDX had reached the end of the second phase in this year's summer competition. On Thursday, ZGDX would be against the second to the last team from B group, Team Alpha-- --There should be another cross-group match against Team CK on Sunday, but the organizer had moved this particular match to the beginning of the tournament for promotional purposes. 

Therefore, for ZGDX, there was no game this coming Sunday. They would finish two-thirds of the competition ahead of other teams in the A group. Before the playoffs, they wouldn't have a chance to face off against the strong Team CK. The match against Team Alpha was on Thursday. Team Alpha was one of the upper-middle teams in the league and was very resilient. The team was usually nicknamed by esports fans as "the major league's quality control team" or "strong teams' quality inspection bureau." Those nicknames meant that one could tell whether a team was truly strong or just looked strong compared to other weaker teams by looking at the result of any team that played against Team Alpha.

It turned out that ZGDX had a difficult time winning their second match against Team Alpha. Old Cat, during the early game, was under constant attack from Alpha's jungler. At the eighth minute into the game, his score was 0/2/0 and he was behind Alpha's top by a level and a half. At the twentieth minute, his champion Maokai still hadn't been able to develop well. After he was killed by Alpha's top and three others, Old Cat threw down his mouth and moved his wrist around: "Finish up quick, let's forget about this one, wait for the next match."The tone of his voice sounded like he was irritated from being targeted by the opposing team. Tong Yao could totally relate to the feeling. But since Alpha had focused on top, Tong Yao and Lu Sicheng's champions had both developed quite well. Tong Yao kept silent but Lu Sicheng briefly said: "We still have a chance, try to hang on a little longer. Old Cat, after farming the minions at the top, comes down to the bot to farm. I'll go to the jungle to see if I can farm anything there."
