After the competition ended, there was a long silence in the group .
No one spoke, as everyone was shocked by their opponents’ teamwork and control .
Next, they saw the provocative messages sent by the enemy team on the game’s interface .
[“How was it? It was such an unexpected loss, wasn’t it?”]
[“You are too weak to go on bragging about how powerful you are as an opponent!”]
[“Are all the gamers from your country only at this level?”]
Qiao Lian caught the opponent’s last line quick-wittedly . Reaching out her hands to type a few words, she asked,
[“All of you are foreigners?”]
As soon as she sent this, Zi Chuan’s message also popped up on the screen .
[“You are ‘King’ team . ”]
There was certainty in that statement .
Qiao Lian froze immediately .
‘King’ was a famous eSports team from Country H . They were all veterans, they had even clinched the top five at this year’s world ranked match!
They were a group of scary people . Each member’s skills were comparable to Zi Chuan’s, and their teamwork and rapport were excellent . It felt like they were playing against one person instead of five people!
On the other hand, Qiao Lian and the others only played games as a recreational activity . How could they be their match?
However, every gamer had his or her own idol .
King was the team that Qiao Lian had used to admire .
Hence, even though they had just been defeated, she became excited instantly .
She did not feel any injustice about having lost to King .
As soon as she thought of this, another message popped up on the screen .
[“We heard that you are the best . But if we are a huge dragon, you are in the end only a small snake at best . ”]
Those words had obviously been translated by a professional software . The grammar was awkward, yet full of mockery .
Qiao Lian clenched her fist all of a sudden as a strong surge of unknown humiliation filled her heart .
After remaining silent for a full five seconds, she said,
[ “How can all of you be like this?!”]
The in-game voice chat was open, so everyone was still in the chat .
The team replied to Qiao Lian immediately, “I agree, they are veterans . How are we supposed to be their match?”
“What did he mean by that? Is he looking down on us?”
“Sh*t, that’s too much! …”
Qiao Lian was going to say something, but she realized Zi Chuan was already offline .
Suddenly she was not interested in the conversation anymore, so she left the voice chat, took off her headphones and stared blankly at the computer without saying anything .
The joy when she found out that Zi Chuan had received his acceptance letter had vanished completely now . What was left was a sense of emptiness and helplessness .
Initially, games had been a form of recreation to them .
However at this moment, she suddenly thought of other ideas .
She picked up her phone instantly and called Zi Chuan .
After two rings, he picked up the call .
Soon after she said, “Zi Chuan, let’s form an eSports club!”
Eight years ago, the eSports scene had still not been highly-regarded in the country .
Therefore, this idea was way too wild and bold for them . It was simply beyond anyone’s imagination .
She had only said it casually out of spike, but unexpectedly the next moment he replied, “Ok . ”
Humans are all equal .
Zi Chuan was very smart, but his physical development was behind others . His voice was still changing even though he was already 19 years-old . His screeching voice was not appealing to the ears at all .
However, one word settled her down .
She had thought that they would finally get to meet if they formed the eSports club, but who would have imagined…
