It wasn’t because Guangdong Sun Yatsen University was strong, but it was the fact that since the match between Shanghai University and Zhejiang University had been uploaded onto the net, the teams that were able to enter the finals had invested a lot of time studying Shanghai University’s tactics . In the end, they had all unanimously agreed that the way to beat them was to aim for the Support!
Luocheng was Shanghai University’s carry and pacemaker, and once he was deliberately singled out, the stronger side of Shanghai University would be completely suppressed .
Even though it was a pity they didn’t make it into the finals and there were many regrets, the fact that they managed to rank in the top four was already something to be happy about . For this reason, the university had also specially praised the members of the E-sports Club during the general assembly .
The name ‘Luocheng’ had practically achieved legendary status within the campus . In the past, the ones who had managed to achieve such status were young masters who were rich and handsome, or someone who was capable of doing big things that sensationalized the university . For Luocheng who just played E-sports and was well known by his classmates due to this, it was the first time that this had happened .
Of course, this was also something that was easily forgotten . With the various exams fast approaching, those hermits didn’t have much time to increase their rankings . The one they needed to pray to now was not Luocheng, but instead, Confucious and other various philosophers .
No matter how outstanding you were in E-sports, your studies were still the priority .
It was already December, and Luocheng had let go of E-sports a little, beginning to devote himself to normal studies . Previously, he had had to participate in both Shanghai University team and Team Skycrown’s training sessions, which forced him to skip classes and fall behind in his studies . As a result, there were so many things that he needed to catch up on and he didn’t know where to start .
In the afternoon after his lunch break, Luocheng picked up his books to read in his room . Feifei had taken notes for him and it was done with many details . The notes were easy to read and it made it easier for him to understand the materials .
“Sh*t, you’re studying?” Qiu Jingtai exclaimed in surprise, poking his head out from the bed nearby .
Luocheng ignored the idiot, choosing to continue studying his Further Mathematics .
“I thought you didn’t need to take the exam to pass?” Jingtai probed further .
“No sh*t, that’s only for a few subjects . ” Luocheng replied .
Just as he said that, his phone started to vibrate .
“Brother, are you in your room?” Yu Yu’s melodic voice came through the receiver .
“No, I’m in the library reading . ” Luocheng said .
Jingtai’s eyes widened as he stared at Luocheng with an incredulous look on his face . F*ck, this guy was lying with such a straight face!
“Oh, then I’ll come and find you . ” Yu Yu said .

“Your training is over?” Luocheng asked .
“Yeah, I reached back yesterday night . ”
Yu Yu generally didn’t spend much time in the university and would only be here when she wasn’t participating in any training or competitions . Luocheng had only seen her a handful of times .
“I’m reading, don’t come over . ”
“I’ll also be reading . ”
Luocheng hadn’t even finished but Yu Yu had already hung up the phone .
This girl, she really would go to the library .
The dorm room really wasn’t suitable to study, with five other people around, you say one word, I say another word, and all of a sudden, everyone would be chatting and laughing instead of studying seriously .
Simply packing a few things, Luocheng then departed for the library .
Holding his books as he entered the library, his body automatically walked toward the corner of the place as he had always done when he came to the library .
“Damn . ” Luocheng halted in his steps, scolding himself .
He forced himself to turn around, leaving behind the door he so frequently used, and headed toward the stairs that led to the sacred floor of studying .
Luocheng hadn’t known that it would be so hard to get a place in the library this close to the exam period, and as he walked from the first floor all the way to the fourth floor, he still couldn’t find an empty spot .
For Luocheng who had been unexpectedly able to be enthusiastic about studying, this dampened his spirits . It looked like the only place that fully accepted him in this library was the multimedia room .
There was no space on the fourth floor, and Luocheng returned to the third floor to continue his search . As he was walking, he noticed a familiar figure . He also noticed that there was an empty spot beside her, and his eyes brightened as he walked toward her .

Feifei came to the library every day to read books and this was her daily routine . Even her seat was always in the same place . She loved this kind of life, once she was tired of reading, she would listen to music, rest a while, or pick another genre of book to read . The days would pass in a comfortable pace .
However, there were disturbing things that happened sometimes . For example, there were some flies that would buzz around her with ulterior motives . With the face of someone who felt good about themselves or someone who thought they were smooth, they would continue to pester her, disturbing her peace .
Feifei was disgusted with these kind of guys, and somehow, a couple of them would always appear in front of her every day .
As she was reading, the seat next to her was taken by a guy .
Feifei didn’t bother to raise her head, her heart was already raising a wall to defend herself .
What was up with today, after finally being able to chase one persistent guy away coldly, another one had turned up! Hopefully he would just stay silent and leave her alone .
Burying her face into the book, just as Feifei was throwing a tantrum internally, she felt the guy beside her pat the top of her head!
Feifei frowned, the guys were now more over the line! Just as she lifted her head to glare at the person, she was greeted with a lazy, but bright smile .
Feifei froze, why was it this guy?
“Don’t look like you just saw a ghost,” Luocheng said nonchalantly as he took in the expression on Feifei’s face .
“I just thought that the possibility of you appearing on the first floor was higher, and the rest of the floors are zero,” Feifei replied after a while .
Alright, Luocheng had to admit that he only had one destination in mind when he came to the library—the multimedia room .
“I’m often on the fifth floor…”
“Fifth floor?”
Luocheng looked at Feifei who clearly didn’t understand his meaning, and he felt it wasn’t necessary to say ‘Fifth floor, picking Support’ .
Coming back to reality, with the exam looming closer, Luocheng really had a lot of things that he wanted to learn from this committee member . The notes were Feifei’s, and by asking the person directly, he could resolve a lot of his headaches .
“Would it bother you if I asked some questions?” Luocheng asked .
“What do you want to ask?” Feifei said instead, her eyes full of suspicion as she looked at him .
“What are you nervous about, I’m not going to ask anything personal . You helped me take these notes, there are some things which I don’t understand . ” Luocheng explained .
He had been classmates with Feifei for more than three months, and he found that this beauty was not as arrogant or cold as people had said . She just didn’t like talking to people who were not close to her or strangers .
“Oh, then go ahead and ask then . I can revise it at the same time . ” Feifei said, nodding her head .
Luocheng didn’t have many questions in the first place as he could understand the majority of the materials himself, and the materials of the university studies weren’t as complicated as he had thought .
Put it this way, if you just aimed to pass the exam, even if you missed the whole semester of classes, you just needed to spend a week reviewing the key points of the studies and you could easily score between seventy to eighty marks .
Luocheng was aiming for this seventy or eighty marks, if he got any higher than that, he would be better off raising his rank instead .
Speaking of which, the local server’s ranking systems had already been updated . It was now Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Challenger . You couldn’t see the rank in Luocheng’s account anymore, and instead, Diamond 3 was displayed . Recently, he had been playing in the Hanbok and US server and he didn’t have as much time to raise his rank in the local server…
Come to think of it, hadn’t he come to the library to study, why was he suddenly thinking about this matter instead?
Luocheng shook his head to get rid of these unnecessary thoughts, he needed to focus on his studies!
Feifei maintained her indifferent expression on her face, looking concentrated on her studies . In fact, there were already ripples in her heart, and the cause of it was Luocheng .
Among the girls in the department, there were already rumors about her and Luocheng’s close relationship . If the students were to see him and her sitting like this together studying, even more exaggerated rumors were sure to start .
‘Sigh, why should I care about that . Let them say what they want to,’ Feifei wondered to herself .
Feeling a bit tired, Feifei raised her head and stretched, taking a short break . When her eyes were tired, she needed to focus on something further away . Her gaze followed the long marble corridor all the way to the end, which was also the stairs .
A bright, beautiful girl appeared at this time, her pure, innocent face was attractive, and Feifei felt a touch of familiarity as she looked at her . She wondered if she had seen this girl somewhere before .
The girl was clutching a book in her arms, walking toward her direction, seemingly looking for someone and a place to sit .
Feifei noted that the students who were previously focused on studying were now all fidgeting in their seats as the girl walked past them, all eyes turning to look and excited chatter from guys started to form .
“Isn’t…isn’t she the swimming girl?” Feifei finally remembered .
This was actually the famous beauty in school which had caused a huge influence in swimming . When she had disappeared a while back, people had talked less about her . Whenever she appeared, various new rumors would spread among both the girls and guys .
Feifei’s impression of the girl was also good, she didn’t exude the aura of a small celebrity . That soft gentleness and purity made people feel like she was a kind, familiar neighbor to everyone .
As Feifei looked at her, unknowingly, she had walked and stood in front of her . Feifei smiled slightly, trying to be friendly . The girl originally had a kind smile on her face, but suddenly, her eyes held a weird look…
It felt like there was hostility aimed at her .
Feifei was confused, did she do something to incur that hostility?
As she puzzled over this fact, the girl walked to the back of Luocheng…
Luocheng was still busy trying to decipher something and he didn’t see the swimming goddess standing behind him . The swimming goddess stretched out her arms lightly, slowly going around Luocheng’s neck and suddenly threw her weight forward, plastering her face onto his back .
“Brother, I’ve found you!”
It was meant to be funny, but Luocheng was startled from the impact and was shocked . Turning around, he found himself facing a seemingly angelic face, but with the devil’s smile…
Damn it, how could he forget that she was coming!
Luocheng noticed that the surrounding people who were studying were now in a commotion!
