"So, when are you guys heading out?"
Lin Feng looked at the two people in front of him. One was a comrade who had fought alongside him in the past, and the other was an old friend who had known each other since the S1 season.
Unknowingly … five or six years had passed.
Many things had changed.
But there were also many scenes that reminded him of the past.
Once again … it was time for the finals.
"It's this Thursday," Shi Hang replied. "We booked a flight on Thursday evening for Quick Water. When we fly there, it'll probably be close to night time. Then we'll rest for the night, and the next day we'll probably start training there to adapt to the venue."
As he spoke, he glanced at Tian Tian beside him. "Old Tian, KG's schedule should be about the same as ours, right?"
Tian Tian nodded. "Yeah, we'll be on the same flight as God, but we'll be at most an hour behind Quick Water."
Then their gazes simultaneously fell on Lin Feng.
Tian Tian couldn't help but ask, "Lin Feng, this time … are you coming?"
Shi Hang also egged him on. "Yeah, you're a freshman now, so it's okay for you to skip class. After all, it's the finals. It's a once in a year opportunity. And if you're here … I feel more at ease."
It was rare for him to say such a big truth.
Compared to Tian Tian, as the ace of Quick Water, this was actually the first time Shi Hang had the opportunity to fight his way into the S Series World Finals. In terms of tournament experience, he definitely wasn't as rich as Tian Tian. Even if he had been mentally preparing himself, with the big match just around the corner … any professional player would still feel nervous.
At a time like this, if there was a reliable partner by his side, even if they weren't fighting side by side, just watching from the sidelines, it was still somewhat comforting.
The power of companionship couldn't be underestimated.
It should be known that in the S5 finals last year, even a single overseas phone call from Lin Feng had helped Tian Tian forcibly rebuild his fighting spirit. That was how he was able to burst out with such an amazing performance in the World Finals, pulling Team KG back from the brink of elimination in one fell swoop.
And …
Not to mention anything else.
Even if it was just the effect of a certain someone's work as a sparring partner for the past few days, old friends like Shi Hang and Tian Tian would not even have the chance to persuade him. The team leaders, coaches, and senior executives of the three clubs would also scramble to invite him to join their team. After all, the training and preparation tasks of each team during the finals were equally important. A reliable sparring partner might even be of more substantial help than a professional coach.
"Yes, it would be great news if you could come as well."
Another voice came from behind them. Lin Feng, Tian Tian, and Shi Hang subconsciously turned their heads and saw Morning Dawn Chenzi and Huangxue Nightsong walking over. Morning Dawn Chenzi looked at Lin Feng and continued speaking in a sincere tone.
"It's true."
"If there's nothing else, come with us. We need you."
These words … were not easily heard from the top midlaner of the national server.
But when it came to Lin Feng, it wasn't wrong.
Because although Morning Dawn Chenzi's strength and experience in tournaments were at the top of the world, if it was a certain someone's experience and vision, he really was the only person in the country who could give Morning Dawn Chenzi pointers and advice.
"It's just a few days off. If you want, God can take care of it for you." Standing next to Morning Dawn Chenzi, Huangxue Nightsong chose to instigate from a different angle. "And there are a lot of beautiful girls in the UK, and there are also a lot of people who like League of Legends. Who knows, you might be able to trick a few of them?"
Shi Hang listened and rolled his eyes. "Come on, we're going to Manchester, not London … God knows what kind of rural corner that is."
Huangxue Nightsong expressed his disdain for this old rival of Team Rapid Waters in the S6 season. "Are you ignorant? There are several universities in Manchester with our country's international students. Each of them has good family conditions, and they're beautiful. The average quality is who knows how many levels higher than domestic universities! "
This made Shi Hang tempted. "Really? Hey, will they all go to the game? Then we have to perform well … "
Only Tian Tian was an honest person. He carefully interjected and expressed his opinion.
"We still have to focus on the game when we go there, right?"
"There's not much time to do other things …"
Shi Hang patted Tian Tian's shoulder hard. "Aiya, Old Tian, you're being too serious. There's no conflict between the competition and the girls. If you do well in the competition, there will naturally be a bunch of pretty girls looking for you ~"
Huangxue Nightsong even more intimately hugged Tian Tian. "That's right, God, let me tell you, you definitely have a lot of female fans on the national server. Last time when I was streaming, there were a lot of girls saying they liked you —"
When the two of them got to the point where they were in high spirits, it was as if they were on the same wavelength. Huangxue Nightsong gave Shi Hang a thumbs up.
"Sure, we're kindred spirits!"
Shi Hang laughed. "Let's come out for supper more often ~"
Huangxue Nightsong raised his eyebrows. "Dinner is no problem, but speaking of which … personal friendship is personal. Don't expect me to hold back during training later ~"
The topic was finally back to business. Shi Hang waved his hand nonchalantly. "There's no need for that. We'll just fight it out in the open during training. As for who's going to fight who … it's hard to say."
As they spoke, the two of them looked at each other and saw the undisguised fighting spirit in each other's eyes.
Morning Star finally chimed in at this time and looked at Shi Hang.
"This year, your Quick Shui … you're under a lot of pressure."
After all, as the current number one mid in the national server, and even about to cross that threshold, with Morning Star's realm and vision, he could also see some of the current problems of the Quick Shui team.
Shi Hang paused for a moment, then nodded and admitted it without reservation.
"Yes."
"Unlike your God, this is the first time for me and Quick Shui to enter the S-League. If we want to rush for a wave of rankings … we have to go all out."
As he spoke, he suddenly flashed a smile.
"It's okay."
"Anyway, I'm ready."
Morning Star took a deep look at Shi Hang and nodded slightly. "Let's wait and see."
Shi Hang smiled. "You'll see in a while."
Just as the atmosphere of their conversation finally became formal, professional and solemn again, a seemingly relaxed and casual voice came from not far behind them.
"Chatting like this … is more like it."
"It saves me a little effort to talk."
Almost as soon as they heard this voice, Lin Feng, Morning Star, Shi Hang, Tian Tian, and Huangxue Nightsong straightened their backs almost at the same time. They suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of the person.
"Senior!"
Not far in front of them, Number One, Number Five, and Number Three had walked over at some point. The team leaders, coaches, and other big shots of the three clubs surrounded them like stars surrounding the moon. Number One, who was in the lead, leisurely put his hands behind his back and looked at them calmly. The corners of his mouth curved slightly.
"Everyone's here, right?"
