Although the words spoken by Number One, Three, and even Number Five were not pleasant to the ear and could even be said to be a blow to the morale of the team, everyone at the table knew very well that these words were the truth.
Including Team Rapid Water, the three club teams from the LPL region that had qualified for the S6 finals were all facing the same problem.
They were not as strong as others.
Even if they worked hard enough, they were still unable to achieve a breakthrough in the strength of their own team in the remaining few days because of their chronic illness.
And because of this, the chances of them winning against the other strong teams in the S6 finals were …
Very, very low.
Even in the first round of the group stage, there might not be a single team that could guarantee that they would be able to advance.
It was precisely because they understood this point that even though they couldn't understand the intentions behind Number 1 and Number 3's words, the Quick Water Club's Team Leader Sun and Coach Fu could only silently admit it with a heavy heart.
They were speaking the truth.
They could not refute it in the first place.
However, no one expected that there would be another abrupt voice at this moment. It was so firm and resolute, as if it wanted to deny all the previous analyses and evaluations.
"No."
The one who spoke was Shi Hang.
Perhaps it was because he was affected by Number One and Three's casual and condescending comments, Shi Hang's face was still slightly pale at this moment. However, his expression was incomparably resolute as he looked straight at Number One.
"Senior."
"I can't completely agree with your view!"
As soon as he said this.
Anyway, the two big shots of the Quick Water Club were the first to be shocked. Team Leader Sun was even more anxious as he shouted at Shi Hang, "Don't worry, I won't be able to help you.
"Ah Hang! Don't talk nonsense! "
"What Coach Number One and the others have just analyzed is also the truth. There is nothing we can't admit."
Coach Fu, who was standing by the side, also quickly agreed.
"Yes, yes, yes."
"These are all things that we know in our hearts, but we are subconsciously unwilling to think about it. Since we are professional esports players, we have to learn to face reality. If you are unwilling to even face this kind of thing, then there is something wrong with your mentality, Ah Hang!"
However, Number One did not seem to be angry after being interrupted. Instead, he slightly raised his eyebrows with interest as his gaze fell on Shi Hang.
"Oh?"
"Then tell me, why don't you agree completely?"
Shi Hang took a deep breath, looked at Number One and said, as if he was ignoring the reprimands of the two leading coaches of his club.
"I agree with most of what the seniors said just now."
"Yes."
"Indeed. With my current strength, I might not even be a match for half of the other top teams in this season's S6 Finals."
"Sixteen teams, I might fall to the bottom of the ladder in terms of mid-laners."
"Even I, Quick Water's strongest point, is in such a situation. On paper, it's going to be quite difficult for us to make it out of the group stage of the S6 finals."
His tone was calm and unperturbed, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
Shi Hang's expression didn't change in the slightest, even when he was dissecting his own team and himself in such a cruel and realistic manner.
But in the next moment …
He paused for a moment, but his expression suddenly became solemn and solemn.
"Yes."
"Seniors, you are right."
"We don't have enough time, we don't have enough foundation, and we have too many accumulated problems."
"But I still don't agree with the conclusion made by the seniors just now —"
At this point, Shi Hang paused again, but there seemed to be a ball of fire burning in his eyes.
"It's not that the other teams are stronger than Quick Water on paper …"
"We can't compete with them."
"It's not that we can only do our best and leave it to fate if we don't seem confident."
"I don't like the way fate is said."
"I really don't like it."
"Fate is in our own hands. We can't control the luck of the drawing of lots. I've never thought that we, Quick Water, can only advance through the group stage by relying on luck."
Number One was noncommittal, but he looked at Shi Hang with an even more playful gaze.
"Oh."
"Then tell me, what do you plan to rely on?"
As soon as the question left his mouth, Shi Hang answered without hesitation.
"By risking our lives!"
At this moment, the flames in his eyes burned even more fiercely. He said word by word, "Life is not given by the heavens, not by luck."
"It's what we fight for ourselves!"
His voice was powerful.
Resolute and sonorous.
It was clearly a childish and ridiculous chuunibyou, but the serious and firm expression on Shi Hang's face represented that every word he said was something he truly believed in.
This time, before Number One could speak, Number Three had already heard it, and the corner of his mouth had already curled up slightly, forming a seemingly mocking arc.
"Risking our lives?"
"So you think that as long as you risk your lives, you can ignore all other factors?"
"By risking your lives, you can defeat the Four Sovereigns and Seven Kings who are above you?"
It was still Number Three's tone.
With undisguised contempt and mockery.
But Shi Hang didn't seem to be affected at all. He still nodded with a serious and firm expression.
"Yes!"
…
At this time, Team Leader Sun and Coach Fu of the Quick Water Club were so anxious that they almost jumped out of their chairs.
What the hell is Ah Hang doing?
Just because the words of the seniors might not be pleasant to the ears, you're going to fight with them!?
They're telling the truth!
Even if you really can't accept it, can't you at least consider their identities? Tonight, that idiot Chen Ze just happened. Now that you've finally appeased these esteemed guests, who are at the level of gods, with great difficulty, you're going to do this again?
If you make them angry again, how are you going to clean up the mess!?
However, the conversation on the table continued.
Looking at Shi Hang's serious and firm expression, Number Three narrowed his eyes slightly. "Are you sure?"
Shi Hang didn't even think about it. "I'm sure!"
Team Leader Sun and Coach Fu were so anxious that they felt like their mouths were going to bubble. They couldn't hold it in anymore and scolded him.
"Enough! Ah Hang! "
"Watch your words! How can you take the blame for a few seniors! "
"Quick, apologize!"
At this time, Number Three seemed to be too lazy to restrain the mocking smile on his face.
"How can you be so sure?"
Shi Hang didn't avoid Number Three's mocking and playful gaze. He took a deep breath and said in a low voice,
"Because —"
"Someone has done it before!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
The atmosphere on the table suddenly quieted down for a moment.
Team Leader Sun and Coach Fu, who were at the side, were dumbfounded when they heard this. They subconsciously went blank. What was Ah Hang saying? He was talking back in a fit of pique. Did he even know what he was saying? Just because of his pride, he insisted that someone had done it before?
Damn, who can do that?!
With the strength of a first-rate professional player, who the hell can defeat the Four Emperors and Seven Kings?
Even if you want to be angry, don't let your emotions get to your head!
But at the same time, Lin Feng and Li Shiyi, who had been quietly eating with their heads lowered, froze for a moment. The chopsticks in their hands froze in mid-air, and someone's eyes seemed to flash inadvertently.
Number One raised his eyebrows.
"You're talking about —"
Shi Hang's expression returned to normal as he slowly said a name.
"Tian Tian."
