Xu Jian's heart was filled with confidence when he made such a bold announcement to all the guests in the internet cafe.
Fifteen thousand?
Such a sum was naturally high enough to set off a wave of excitement in the audience.
The 10,000 grand prize was directly raised by 50%. In fact, even as the branch manager, he didn't have the authority to make such a decision on his own. The extra 5,000 would have to come out of his own pocket.
If he really had to fork out the money, even as the branch manager of the Pinnacle Internet Cafe, with his income level, he would definitely feel the pinch for a long time.
After all, he was the branch manager, not the boss. He still relied on his monthly salary and commission to survive.
However …
At this moment, Xu Jian was actually not worried at all.
This was because he had to fork out the money. That would be worth the pinch, but the key point was that he didn't think anyone in the internet cafe would have the chance and ability to win this super grand prize of 15,000.
Come on.
Tonight, the line-up of the resident battle team at the internet cafe had two main members of Seven Leaves Battle Team One holding the fort!
Even on a normal day, just relying on the lineup of Team Two and their substitutes would be enough to sweep away a group of invincible opponents. Now, with the addition of the two main players from Team One of Seven Leaves, their overall strength was simply going to rise to a whole new level.
In a 5v5 team, there was absolutely no possibility of losing.
Victory was guaranteed.
As for the solo challenge, Xu Jian was full of confidence in Shi Ming, who was the "Eight Cups". Shi Ming had relied on his own strength to become a star player in the LSPL. Even if a few League of Legends came, they wouldn't be able to easily win against the Eight Gods.
Moreover, how many League of Legends had there been in total?
They weren't cabbages that could be found on the streets!
…
At the same time, in the back row of the audience, Ceng Rui was looking at Lin Feng helplessly.
"Come on, don't get too excited just yet, okay?
It's not even the arena yet. Do you have to be so happy as if you've already earned 15,000? "
Lin Feng came back to his senses.
"Huh?"
"Is there a difference?"
His tone was filled with genuine confusion.
In a certain someone's opinion, after the manager of Pinnacle Internet Cafe announced that the bonus would be increased by 50%, the 15,000 yuan would naturally be in his pocket.
Kamimiya Saka finally found a chance to stand on the same side as her, and naturally, she rushed to speak up and agree with Ceng Rui.
"Of course there's a difference!"
"Ceng Jun is right. The competition hasn't even started, but we already know that the strength of our opponents this time is definitely not something that the internet cafe teams we've met before can compare to. We have to be extremely careful when dealing with them. Lin Jun, if you're too optimistic and underestimate your opponent, it's definitely not a good thing for us."
Dou Zi also nodded and quickly added, "It's not a big deal.
"Yes, Fengfeng."
"This time, they're an official LSPL professional team's active lineup. Everything else aside, just their top laner 'Eight Wine Cups' is a huge threat — I'm a little weak on my side."
Dou Zi wiped her sweat as she spoke.
He really had no confidence.
As a Transcendent Master, Dou Zi even had the strength to become a King. If they were fighting in the jungler position, Dou Zi felt that even if he encountered a pro player, he would still be able to put up a fight. But the situation was different now.
Right now, he was playing the top lane, okay?!
If he switched to the top lane, he would only have 80% of his strength left at most, and this time, he had to face off against the top laner of the LSPL, Eight Wine Cups.
Even before the match started, Dou Zi could already foresee the tragic scene of her being crushed by the "Eight Gods" in various ways.
Just thinking about it made him break out in a cold sweat!
Lin Feng scratched his head.
"Ah, is that so?"
Not only Dou Zi, but even Ceng Rui and Kamimiya Saka also nodded in agreement. They weren't like Tang Bingyao who had no idea about the strength of the LSPL's star players. A strong player like Eight Wine Cups was definitely not someone that ordinary players could deal with.
"So, this guy is really that strong now …"
Lin Feng subconsciously muttered to himself as he couldn't help but look at Shi Ming on the stage.
But.
That's true.
After all, four or five years had passed since then. Four or five years was enough for a person's strength to make a qualitative leap, and it was enough for others to look at him in a different light.
But come to think of it, in his memory, Little Eight had always been a little fan who couldn't even reach 2000 points in the past. Little Eight had always been passionate about esports and had even traveled thousands of miles from his hometown to cheer for him, Fatty, and Eleven when they went to competitions in other cities.
Now …
He had actually grown into a respectable God in his profession.
Lin Feng sighed a little, then thought for a moment and made a decision.
"Mhm.
Let's watch the match first. "
…
In the arena area, several members of Team Seven Leaves were already sitting in front of their respective computers, ready to go. As the manager of the main branch of the internet cafe, Xu Jian walked down and stood in the back of the crowd, relaxed as he waited to enjoy a high-quality exhibition match with the other internet cafe customers and spectators.
When they entered the battle room to start the ban selection, Team Seven Leaves' main support, Lv Zhong, looked at Shi Ming beside him and said with a smile, "Ming, this is your debut in the internet cafe.
"Ah Ming, this is your first match in the internet cafe. Show some of your skills and let the fans in the audience feast their eyes."
Shi Ming nodded.
"I'll try my best."
Don't be too full of yourself, leave some leeway.
This was also his usual personality.
As a teammate, Lv Zhong naturally knew Shi Ming's calm temper and didn't mind at all. Because he knew that although Shi Ming's personality was like this, when the match really started …
Switching to the "Eight Cups" state, his top laner's playstyle was definitely wild and domineering enough to be the best in the LSPL.
Soon, the members of Team Seven Leaves in the blue team completed the ban selection.
The lineup was confirmed.
Mid-laner Yasuo, jungler Panther Lady, top-laner Blademaster, adc Skateboarding Shoes and support Hammerstone.
After all, it was an exhibition match for the internet cafe guests below the stage. So naturally, the Team Seven Leaves members took out heroes that were more inclined to be able to perform maneuvers.
Especially when they saw Shi Ming take out Blademaster Fiona on the top laner side, the internet cafe guests below the stage cheered in surprise.
Top laner Blademaster!
This was the Hero that the Eight Gods were best at. In the LSPL A-League, especially when the Swordmistress had not been nerfed in the last two versions, almost no team dared to easily give this Hero to the Seven Leaves team.
They were afraid that if the Yagami got it, it would be destined to be a bloody and violent massacre!
At the same time, in the back row of the audience, Lin Feng also raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Blademaster …"
Pretty good.
This kind of hero could let him see more quickly and directly what level Little Eight's strength had improved to.
A minute later.
The game progress loading bar ended.
Summoner's Canyon's loading bar quickly appeared on the three LCD screens above the arena area. A high-level team battle had officially begun.
All the internet cafe guests below the stage were full of anticipation. For them, they couldn't wait to see the exciting maneuvers and slaughter of the two main gods of Team Seven Leaves, especially the top laner Blademaster of "Yagami."
In fact.
Shi Ming indeed did not disappoint the internet cafe guests and fans below the stage.
The game time was three minutes and forty seconds. A female system voice suddenly announced the kill on Summoner's Canyon's top lane.
"FristBlood (First Blood)! — — "
Blademaster.
She soloed the opponent's top lane, Olaf.
The audience below the stage erupted in cheers!
Even the expressions of Dou Zi, Ceng Rui, and Kamiya Saka in the back row could not help but change slightly.
So fast!
So strong!
At the same time, Lin Feng's eyes narrowed slightly. A light flashed in the depths of his eyes, and his body involuntarily straightened a little.
