Back then.
Until now.
So much time had passed without them even realizing it.
It had been five years since the end of the S1 World Finals and the disbandment of the strongest team led by Lin Feng.
Among them, even Lin Feng and Tian Tian only reconnected with their seniors during the S5 World Finals last year after four years.
But as for the others …
Ah Mo in the ADC position.
Ah Qiu in the support position.
They hadn't heard from each other for many years. Even their closest teammates had gone missing. No one knew where they were now.
Li Shiyi was almost the same. Although he was still struggling to survive in the professional esports circle, he had long been a little disheartened by the years he spent in the High Mountain Club. He felt that he had no face to face his old friends and companions, including the seniors he respected the most back then.
Until now.
Before meeting Number One and Number Five, Li Shiyi's heart was filled with uneasiness, anxiety, and a complicated sense of uneasiness. He was terrified and worried, and his imagination was running wild. However, now that he saw the two of them again, met Number One's gentle and smiling gaze, and heard the familiar voice, all the uneasiness and anxiety in his heart were swept away unknowingly.
What was left was only his eyes that began to moisten and heat.
And his Adam's apple couldn't stop trembling with excitement.
Seeing Li Shiyi like this, Number One seemed to be a little emotional, but he just took a light breath and quickly returned to normal. With a gentle and encouraging smile on his face, he nodded and said:
"It's good that you're back."
It was almost exactly the same as what Number Three said before.
At this moment, Li Shiyi didn't know what to say or what words to use to express his feelings at this moment. In the end, he could only nod again:
"Yes!"
…
At this time, the other members of the Fast Water Club had also come down from the stairs one by one. At once, their eyes widened when they saw their club's leader and head coach accompanying two guests.
And then they looked again.
F * ck.
Senior Number One, Senior Number Five!?
It was just like what they had heard upstairs. These two seniors had actually come tonight!
So these Fast Water players immediately came to a realization —
These seniors gathered here tonight for the first time …
Could it really be because of these two guys in front of him?!
This speculation was confirmed when they heard the conversation between Number One and Li Shiyi. The members of the Rapid Water team could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. The way they looked at Li Shiyi and Lin Feng became even more strange.
These two fellows …
He was really not bragging.
Then the background of this identity was definitely a little scary!
At the same time, Team Leader Sun and Coach Fu's eyes lit up when they saw Lin Feng and Li Shiyi. They wondered if these two were the powerful rookies that Coach Number One had mentioned just now. Just as they were about to put on a polite smile and say a few words to leave a good impression on them, they were shocked to find that all of their team members had followed them down the stairs.
What was going on?
Why did they cause such a big commotion?
Hence, in an instant, Team Leader Sun and Coach Fu's expressions turned unpleasant again. They instinctively frowned. Team Leader Sun looked at his team members and scolded them in a displeased tone.
"What are you all doing here in the middle of the night?"
"Are you trying to make a fool of yourself in front of the senior coaches?"
Coach Fu's expression was also unfriendly.
"If you're done with training, go rest early. If you can't sleep, then continue training. What are you all standing here for?!"
This kind of scolding scene was actually very common in the Rapid Water Club's base. Both Team Leader Sun and Coach Fu had extremely high authority in the club, especially in front of the team members. Whatever they said would be obeyed obediently.
But this time …
The situation seemed to be slightly different.
The two instructors' reprimanding words had left their mouths, but for the first time, they didn't achieve the desired effect. Even the Quick Water Club's team members looked at each other in dismay, their faces revealing somewhat odd expressions as they awkwardly stood rooted to the ground.
They did not say anything to explain.
But they did not obediently listen to the order to leave.
Team Leader Sun and Coach Fu were also stunned. They did not expect this kind of result. The two of them immediately frowned again. They felt that something was wrong. Team Leader Sun's gaze fell directly on a member of their second team.
He shouted, "Little Zhou, what's the situation?"
"Why are you still standing there? Tell me!"
At the same time, Coach Fu, who was next to them, smiled at Number One and Number Five. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't discipline them well enough. I've made a fool of myself …"
Little Zhou, the member of Rapid Water's second team who was called out, looked embarrassed. He opened his mouth but did not know where to start.
"Team Leader Sun."
"This, this … I don't know how to say it."
Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up. He hurriedly turned around and pointed in a certain direction.
"You can ask Deputy Team Leader Chen!"
"He knows!"
Thus, he hurriedly extricated himself from the responsibility. Indeed, this matter was simply a fire pit. The issues involved were too sensitive, and the people involved were not people he could afford to offend. He did not want to be so brainless as to take the initiative to court death.
"Deputy Team Leader Chen?"
Team Leader Sun's brows furrowed even more. The doubts in his heart also grew. He could no longer hold it in.
"What's going on?!"
Finally, at this moment, Chen Ze, who was still behind the Speedwater team members, finally squeezed through the crowd and arrived in front of Team Leader Sun. He had seen everything that happened just now, especially when he saw the conversation between Number One and Li Shiyi, as well as the intimate relationship between Lin Feng and Number Five. His scalp couldn't help but feel numb.
He felt that things were getting more and more out of his expectations.
Getting more and more out of control.
But now that things had come to this, he knew that he had no way out. All he could do was hold on tightly to that last bit of hope to ensure his survival. Chen Ze gritted his teeth and said loudly,
"Captain Sun, it's like this —"
"Tonight, Shi Hang brought his two friends to our club's base and I ran into them. Since it's a sensitive period for us to prepare for the finals, the club has issued a strict order not to bring unrelated people to the base. However, Shi Hang has blatantly violated this rule!"
"As a member of the club, I naturally have to protect the interests and system of the club!"
The more he spoke, the more confident and courageous Chen Ze became. He pointed a finger at Shi Hang and said fiercely, "Don't be afraid of me.
"But I didn't expect —"
"I tried to reason with Shi Hang earlier, but not only did he not admit his mistake, he even spoke rudely!"
"He doesn't care about the club's rules at all!"
As he spoke, his face was filled with anger. He looked at Team Leader Sun and pleaded,
"Team Leader Sun, I suggest that such a lawless team member be severely punished!"
After that.
Everyone was silent.
Even Team Leader Sun and Coach Fu were a little confused. Their brains couldn't accept so much information in a short period of time. On the other hand, Number One and Number Five looked at each other and raised their eyebrows in tacit understanding. They had roughly guessed what was going on.
After a long time, Team Leader Sun came back to his senses. He was still a little confused. He subconsciously turned his head to look at the other club members.
"Is … is that so?"
