Back in the room, Li Xu opened the door and saw Li Ge lying motionlessly on the bed. His face was buried in the open cup, and his glasses were thrown aside.
"Li Ge?"
Li Xu called out tentatively. He walked to Li Ge's side and was about to poke Li Ge's butt with his finger when he noticed that Li Ge's shoulders were shaking slightly.
Was he crying?
Oh my god! What did Zhao Enjing say?
A man of seven feet! A man of iron and blood! How did this happen?
"Li Ge, are you okay?"
Li Xu pushed Li Ge with all his might and flipped Li Ge over.
At this time, Li Xu realized that Li Ge was not crying, he was laughing.
Guapi tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth, but he could not suppress the joy in his heart. He could not stop smiling.
Seeing that Li Xu was staring at him like he had seen a ghost, Li Ge ignored Li Xu and turned over to bury his face again.
It was over! Guapi was hopeless.
When he lost the match, Li Ge was obviously very sad. However, Zhao Enjing's phone call had turned him into a ghost.
Li Xu looked sorrowfully at the night sky outside the window. Today was an indescribable day.
The next day, Li Xu woke up early and went out for a run. The air quality in Hanoi was not good, so Li Xu did not run for too long. He felt that he was full of energy and returned to the hotel.
At two in the afternoon, SKT would be facing off against the North American champion, TL.
In the resting room, everyone in SKT sat together and listened to coach Kim Jong Un's lecture.
The lazy attitude that they usually had in the preparation room was completely gone. Everyone was sitting in their chairs with their backs ramrod straight. The salted fish atmosphere was completely gone.
"Calm down and forget about yesterday's match. Today is a new beginning."
"Our goal has never wavered. Don't forget our name, we are SKT."
"SKT, forward!"
"SKT, forward!"

The commentators for today's Chinese stream were Ze Yuan, Rita, and special guest Ruo Feng.
Ze Yuan said, "After yesterday's painful loss, the pressure on SKT is unprecedented. Let's see how they adjust to today's match."
Rita: "Just yesterday, the Korean netizens were already arguing on the internet. SKT's official account has a lot of negative comments. Let's see if it will affect the players' performance."
Ruo Feng said, "I don't think SKT will try the Jewel Kissing Daughter trick again. Everyone thought it was weird when they pulled it out yesterday. In everyone's impression, SKT was never a team that liked to play tricks."
Ze Yuan replied, "Definitely not. SKT isn't an iron-headed team. If the one sitting here was Griffin, and the coach was Brother Mag, they might have been able to repeat the same mistakes as last time. However, SKT won't."
"Are you mocking my Brother Mike again? Are you looking down on the number one player in the Korean server? "
"To be honest, Brother Mike's BP reverse counter against Griffin has been around for a long time."
"Let's have another Jewel Kissing Daughter, the show's effect will be maximized."
"Since I'm eating, let's have some food."
"I'm full, I can't eat anymore."
"Let's be reasonable. Even though SKT was miserable yesterday, there were only problems with their strategy. There shouldn't be any problems with their mechanics, right?"
"Good luck, Xu Ge! The battle between two generations of SKT's top laners. "
"Li Ge, go for it! I still support you. "

Li Xu followed his teammates and sat in the player seat. It was still the same red seat as yesterday. Yesterday's painful loss of 15 minutes and 57 seconds was still fresh in his mind.
The BP match started. The blue TL team banned first, and the red SKT team chose first.
The blue team banned Dao Mei right from the start. In the previous match, IG had the confidence to ban Dao Mei, but TL did not have the same confidence. Originally, Da Mu's main strategy was to resist pressure. Looking at the match against G2, Li Xu's Dao Mei gave too much pressure in the lane.
The red SKT team did not play any tricks and obediently BANA dropped their gem. After the painful lesson of the previous match, Jin Zhengxun also realized that SKT was not suitable for this kind of strategy. Their own team's strength was enough to defeat any opponent, there was no need for them to use unconventional methods.
Ze Yuan: "SKT really banned their gem. Looks like SKT doesn't have a particularly good way to deal with this strategy. Or maybe after the previous match, they just don't want to see these two heroes."
The blue TL team sent MATA's Tauren to the BAN position as the second player.
As an old rival, CoreJJ was very familiar with MATA. When the two teams were practicing, TL had also suffered losses from Tauren.
MATA's Tauren was sometimes crazy and reckless like a retard. All kinds of crazy moves were made into a highlight reel.
However, the flaws did not obscure the merits. Most of the time, MATA's Tauren was the starting point of the team's rhythm. In addition, MATA was the team's commander. As long as his condition was not bad, MATA's Tauren was worth a BAN position.
Of course, SKT also had a hidden gold medal Tauren. Li Ge's Alista was known as the Korean server's Onigiri. In SKT, other than Li Xu's Yasso, Li Ge's Tauren Abomination was the second player.
The captain had also publicly reported Li Ge's Tauren. "This player doesn't understand the game well, and he can still send Tauren ten times. That's amazing. I suspect that he is deliberately acting as me."
Later, it was proven that Li Ge was not acting as him. Li Ge's Tauren was a real noob.
Wolf once said bluntly, "Faker is good at everything, but his support is terrible. Especially Tauren, you can't watch him."
Wolf once explained Tauren's operating techniques in a live broadcast. Li Ge went to join in the fun and argued with Wolf.
Li Ge said, "Shut up! My Tauren's win rate is so high. If you argue with me again, I'll look at the win rate. "
Li Ge did not expect that Wolf really went to check his Tauren's win rate. When Wolf saw Li Ge's Tauren's win rate, he laughed. "A master with a 36% win rate still dares to argue with me?"
The red team's second BAN eliminated Zooey. The blue team's third BAN placed Jess in the BAN position. Since they were going to throw Damu in the top lane, it was better to BAN Jess.
SKT's third BAN position was given to Kenan.
TL's first floor lock was Ryze.
Rita: "It's Ryze again. From what I've seen in the past few days of competition, Sareth's ban rate isn't particularly high. He's often released. On the other hand, the blue side will snatch Ryze first and let you snatch Sareth in return."
SKT did not hesitate to pick Sareth on the first floor. If the opponent dared to pick this hero, SKT would pick him. In Li Xu's opinion, this hero's ability in the lane was still very good. Even if they picked Sareth first, it would be very profitable if they could force the opponent to pick a lineup that had no big moves.
Immediately after, the red team's second choice was Akali.
TL's second choice was the captain. This hero was a perfect match for Damu. This hero's ability to resist pressure was very strong. It would not be easy for an average uplink duo to kill the captain. Furthermore, he developed quickly. It would be very difficult for an old captain to be crushed.
Immediately after, the blue team's third choice was Blind Monk. They picked Blind Monk with a BAN. Xmithie's Blind Monk was not weak either, but he was not very good either.
