Listening to Zhang Xin's vivid description of last night's Ratty Group Battle's pentakill, the other companions at the side exclaimed in a low voice, and their faces couldn't help but reveal envious expressions.
Quintuple Kill!
Most of them were in the Silver and Gold divisions, and some were even stuck in the Bronze division. Usually, they would be happy for half a day if they could rely on their luck to get a double or triple kill, not to mention a Quintuple Kill. This kind of thing could only happen when watching other gods' livestreams.
Now that they knew that their friend had personally gotten a Quintuple Kill, they were naturally overjoyed and envious.
"Zhang Xin, are you already in the Platinum division?" A friend beside him asked curiously. "Isn't it hard to get higher in the Platinum division? They're all experts."
The little boy named Zhang Xin nodded his head proudly. "That's right. Last night, I managed to get promoted to Platinum 5 after killing that Quintuple Kill Mouse. Now, I can already be ranked up to Diamond. Indeed, I'm much stronger than before. However, I feel that it's still alright. There's not much pressure ~"
Among the group of young boys, Zhang Xin's gaming ability was indeed the strongest, and his rank was also the highest among all of them.
"But it's still hard for an ADC to get higher." Another boy interrupted. "It's easy to be targeted, and it's not good if the support is bad."
Zhang Xin nodded in agreement. "That's right! The ADC relies too much on the support. You guys don't know this, but the support teammates I met when I was playing solo were all terrible. If not, I wouldn't have waited until last night to rush up when I was already Platinum. "
As he said this, he paused and pretended to be experienced as he sighed with emotion.
"But nowadays, there are too few good support players —"
The others nodded in agreement.
"It's true!"
"Who would like to play as a support? Anyway, I don't like it. Isn't support for girls?"
"There are a lot of girls in our class who play League of Legends, but they're all so noobs that they can only play as a support."
"I heard that Zheng Lili from the class next door is pretty good. Her support is in the Gold division. Zhang Xin, why don't you go and talk to her later? It'll be a perfect match to pave the way."
"Good idea! And Zheng Lili is one of the three prettiest girls in her class. She's very pretty! "
"Really? Do you have any photos? "
"She has it in her QQ Space. Old Yang has her QQ friend list, right? Let's check it out!"
When topics related to girls were brought up, even if it was just a group of boys, they instantly became even more excited and restless. They surrounded Zhang Xin and incited him. Although the latter tried his best to maintain a reserved attitude, his eyes kept glancing at his companion's phone screen. It was obvious that he was moved by Zheng Lili, one of the three prettiest girls in the class next door.
For a time, everyone seemed to have forgotten that they still had to pay the bill. The young store owner standing in front of the counter did not rush them. Instead, he looked at the youthful junior high school students in front of him with a smile.
While waiting patiently and listening to the chatter of the few little boys, the content of their conversation made the simple young man who was the owner of the convenience store fall into a trance for a moment.
That was right.
The ADC … really depended on the support.
Just like how a support also needed a reliable ADC teammate.
The two positions in the bottom lane complemented each other and could not be dispensed with. Only perfect teamwork could allow each other to play to the best of their abilities and form.
It was definitely a blessing to be able to find each other's most recognized partners.
Back then …
He was also very lucky to have met Ah Qiu.
…
The conversation between the few junior high school boys continued, but the topic had changed from "women" to something more childish and hot-blooded.
"Honestly, Ah Xin, if you can rush to the Diamond level and become a Master, maybe a professional team will look for you?"
One of the little boys looked at his companion, his face full of excitement.
"What's that called … the Youth Training Team? I think it specializes in recruiting all kinds of young players between the ages of 14 and 18. After training, there's a chance that they'll be promoted to the main team!"
The other little boys beside him also scrambled to be the first to agree.
"Yes, yes, yes! Those LPL teams seem to have youth training teams! "
"It'll be awesome if you get selected!"
"Professional players! Are there any super cool ones? "
"Wow, Zhang Xin, if you become a professional ADC player in the future, you'll have a lot of female fans. When that time comes, who cares about Zheng Lili? You can just wave your hand and there'll be girls chasing after you."
The few little boys laughed and joked with each other.
"Eh, but that's nothing. If you become a professional Almighty, you'll earn hundreds of thousands or even millions a month. That'll be awesome!"
"Hundreds of thousands … My dad might not even have that much money in a year from his business."
"Really, esports is super profitable now!"
The young man leaning against the counter was also a little lost in thought. His thoughts were slightly affected.
Esports …
Earning money.
If it was in their previous era, no one would have linked these two words together. In that era, the lives of professional Esports players were really too hard. It was difficult to even maintain a basic livelihood. Pooling money to eat at a restaurant could make them happy for half a day. It was extremely satisfying.
But now … it was really completely different.
Times were getting better and better.
Esports was also getting better and better.
This was the luck of the current professional esports players, but at the same time, to the oldest generation of esports players … it was also a form of regret and misfortune.
They … didn't make it at the right time.
As if he had thought of something, the young man lowered his head. His expression was a little gloomy.
At that moment, someone called out to him.
"Hey, hey, boss?"
"Boss?!"
The young man snapped out of his daze as if he had just woken up from a dream. He looked up and saw that a few middle school boys had already ended their conversation and were staring at him with wide eyes. Zhang Xin, who was in the lead, waved a 20 RMB note at him.
"Check out."
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The young man snapped back to reality and quickly apologized while taking the money. He put on a simple and honest smile. "I was listening to your conversation just now … and got distracted."
"It's fine." Zhang Xin waved his hand magnanimously. The other boys beside him became interested. "Hey, boss, do you also play League of Legends?" "You should be a player too, right?"
The young man gave the remaining change to the customer while he scratched his head and answered with slight embarrassment.
"Yeah, I played it before.
But it's been a long time since I played it. "
"Is that so?" The boys looked like they understood. They sized up the young man and clicked their tongues as they commented, "But boss, you don't look young anymore. At your age, you can't even keep up with your reaction speed and hand speed. You shouldn't be that good." "Hahaha, why are you so strict with the boss? It's not like you're going to play professionally." "You can't say that. Quick Play's Guru Edis is also quite old, but he's still very good!"
As they spoke, the boys looked at the young man.
"Hey, boss, have you heard of Guru Edis?"
"He's about the same age as you!"
