For normal players, when challenging professional players or even an entire professional team, apart from a few extremely confident people, the majority of the people would feel that they didn't have much of a chance of winning. Thus, they wouldn't be willing to easily fork out thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. ()

In addition, for normal university students, even in a big city like Shanghai, their daily living expenses were only around one or two thousand a month. They could make do with it, but it was impossible for them to have the heroic spirit of throwing out tens of thousands of dollars in one go.
In the beginning, it was because of these two considerations that Team Leader Liu of the Alpine Club directly raised the wager of the challenge by five times, raising it to a whole ten thousand dollars.
This was already a huge sum of money.
His original plan was to use this huge sum of money to show off his power to these student brats. Even if they were able to gather such a sum of money in the end, they would definitely be incomparably distressed. Their mental state would be affected by this huge wager after the start of the match.
It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
However, even though his plan was very well thought out, Team Leader Liu never would have thought that …
His wishful thinking would be smashed to smithereens.
Not only did they agree to raise the wager, they actually forcefully increased the base price by a whole ten times!
Compared to the original two thousand dollar deposit, it was a total of fifty times!
One hundred thousand!
It was almost an exaggerated to the point of being terrifying.
This was truly a huge sum of money. Even Team Leader Liu, who had seen much of the world, couldn't help but feel his eyelids twitch wildly.
But …
This was an arena challenge match.
He had actually directly put out a bet of one hundred thousand. This was practically raising the importance of the match that was about to begin by more than one level in an instant!
This time, it instead affected the mental state of Team Leader Liu, who was originally planning to have his wishful thinking, and the expressions of the other team members of the Alpine Club couldn't help but change.
This group of student brats …
Are they all f * cking rich second generation?
Such a huge sum of money, just for this match, they just said they would take it without even blinking!?
Team Leader Liu's expression turned incomparably ugly. Although he had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree under the circumstances, this was equivalent to putting him, the team leader who had made the final decision, on a stove to roast.
A hundred thousand.
If it was a bet, it meant that the Alpine Club would also have to take out a lot of money as a bargaining chip.
According to his original analysis, if they won the next match, it would be even better. They could earn a huge sum of money for nothing, but what if …
Thinking of another possibility, Captain Liu's heart could not help but tremble slightly.
What if he lost?
The money couldn't have come from the club.
In that case, it could only be a few members of the team plus him, the leader who made the final decision.
Putting aside the fact that such a huge sum of money would be extremely difficult to bear even if it was split among everyone, more importantly, with the 100,000 chips as a gimmick, the final result of this match would definitely be spread throughout the entire Shanghai internet cafe circle, and even the professional esports circle in China.
At that time …
The repercussions and consequences would be completely out of control.
Just the thought of what would happen if they lost the match made Captain Liu's scalp go numb. His eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
…
At the same time, Lin Feng was still calm on the stage.
Everything was going according to his plan.
Even —
This result was even better than what he had originally expected.
Originally, he had planned to destroy the Mountain Internet Cafe, which was under the control of the Alpine Club. He did not expect someone to give him a free pillow when he was sleepy. The team leader of the Alpine Club actually took the initiative to raise the stakes of the match.
If you raise it to ten thousand.
Then I'll directly put all my chips on the stud.
A hundred thousand.
Previously, when he went to other internet cafes to challenge, the deposit for each challenge was only twelve thousand yuan. At that time, he did not need to do much else. In any case, he just needed to take the prize money that the other party had set.
But here at the Mountain Internet Cafe, it was different.
Lin Feng slightly narrowed his eyes. His eyes flickered dangerously, making one's skin crawl.
Here …
He wanted the Alpine Club to pay the most painful price.
In fact, if it were not for the fact that he only had a hundred thousand yuan on hand, even if he had two hundred or three hundred thousand yuan, as long as the other party dared to accept, he would not hesitate to bet it all.
Just play a little bigger …
Lin Feng's eyes were filled with undisguised coldness.
How big could he play?
How big was he willing to play?
All the grievances that Eleven had suffered in the Alpine Club over the years, he, as his former teammate, was going to make them pay!
…
The match was about to begin.
Both sides took out a hundred thousand yuan as wagers. This match involved a huge sum of two hundred thousand yuan. At this time, the internet cafe guests in the audience could not help but clamor.
Everyone could not help but feel nervous and excited.
Damn …
This was practically as exciting as going to a casino!
Two hundred thousand!
It wasn't the kind of prize money that could only be received after a season of playing in a professional league and winning first, second, and third place. This was a huge gamble that would decide the outcome of life and death in less than a minute!
It turned out that the grudges in eSports could also be as flamboyant and hot-blooded as those in novels and TV dramas!
Who would win?
Who would have the last laugh?
On paper, the Alpine Club's LspL players would definitely have the upper hand. But on the other hand, if they did not have enough confidence, why would they take the initiative to raise the wager to a hundred thousand?
"Logically speaking, that mid laner Lin Feng is definitely no weaker than a professional player."
An internet cafe guest added.
The other audience members expressed their opposition.
"What's the use of him being strong? He's up against five professional LspL players. "
But a third internet cafe guest immediately refuted.
"So what if they're professional players?"
"Didn't you guys hear? The NetCube Internet Cafe team has taken turns to destroy all the high-end to top-notch internet cafes in Magic City a few days ago. They've even defeated quite a few professional LspL teams!"
Defeated other professional LspL teams?
Many people were shocked.
"Are you for real?!"
"F * ck, isn't that a little too much?!"
At that moment, Lin Feng had already walked down from the stage and returned to his teammates.
Li Shiyi was the first to approach them. He said anxiously,
"Lin Feng, you … you're too reckless."
"If it's just for me, I'm not worth it right now —"
But before he could finish, Lin Feng shook his head and interrupted him.
"I'll decide whether it's worth it or not."
"What do you think?"
"It's just a hundred thousand. Even if you add two more zeros, it won't make a difference."
He paused and looked at Li Shiyi with a serious expression. "Don't forget, we're teammates."
Li Shiyi was slightly taken aback. The words he was about to say got stuck in his throat. His lips trembled, but he couldn't bring himself to say anything else.
Then Lin Feng suddenly laughed and patted Li Shiyi on the shoulder.
"Besides, there's no way I'm actually going to lose this hundred thousand.
It's a sure win!
"The previous round wasn't satisfying enough, the next round …" Ye Zichen said.
"Just watch from below the stage."
We'll help you vent your anger! "
