Autumn was getting colder and colder.
The air was getting colder and colder.
Winter was coming and the trees on both sides of the street were covered in frost. The birds had built their nests early in the morning and were preparing for winter.
For the high school students in Shanghai who were still in school, waking up in the morning to go to school and leaving the warm and comfortable bed after waking up could be said to be an arduous battle.
On the weekends, fewer people came out to play.
The popularity of Internet cafes had decreased by a lot. More students would stay at home on weekends, crawl into their beds and lie comfortably in bed. They would take out their phones or tablets to watch Korean dramas and American dramas, watch movies, or go to various major live streaming platforms to watch other live streamers' live streams.
Play ranked?
What kind of joke was that? The weather was so cold that one's fingers were about to go numb. It was all up to fate. How dare you play ranked?
Alright, young man, you're very brave. Your courage is admirable.
Tell me your ID. I'll blacklist you first. F * ck, you should be hung up and beaten to death for forcing ranked at this time. You're a scourge to society!
There were also many League of Legends players. Other than watching live streams, they would also go to the major League of Legends forums to see if there was any new gossip.
In the end …
There was.
…
On the first day of December, there was only about a week left before the start of the National High School League.
Before the specific rules of the competition were announced on the official website, there was already a lot of gossip leaked from the major League of Legends forums.
For example, among the university teams participating this time, some of the veteran teams from previous tournaments had new strong players joining them, and some of the top eight teams from the previous tournament had already declared that they were determined to win the championship this time …
And so on.
All sorts of gossip and gossip that came out of the Tieba forums were originally just for the local players to watch and have some fun.
However, there was one piece of news that caused a lot of heated discussion —
It was said that there would be high school teams participating in this year's National High School League.
This piece of news was first posted by a member of the forum named "Flying Over the Nine Provinces" on a well-known forum. Soon after, this post was shared by countless forum members who participated in the discussion, reaching hundreds of thousands of replies.
Basically, most of the netizens on Tieba who participated in the discussion did not believe the news.
After all, this was the National University League.
The participating teams had to be teams from high schools. How could they allow high school students to participate?
There was no precedent at all!
However, there were also netizens on Tieba who expressed their interest in watching the fun. They felt that if high school students really participated, perhaps this year's National High School League would be even more interesting.
If there was a situation where a high school team defeated a high school team, it would definitely be very interesting ~
Of course, the players who were there to watch the show were merely joking and did not take it to heart.
Until December 4th.
…
December 4th.
There were still four days until the start of the National LL High School League.
Finally, on this day, the organizers announced the list of participating teams from the seven divisions on their official website.
Among them, the teams from the three major esports associations, Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, were on the list.
The three teams were all made up of high school students.
This was the first time since the National High School League was held!
As soon as the news came out, the Tieba forums of the major League of Legends were the first to explode.
All the netizens on the forums were in an uproar.
This news …
It was actually f * cking true!?
They really allowed high school students to participate in the National High School League!?
After the uproar, there were all kinds of heated discussions. Basically, the opinions were divided into two factions. One faction thought that this was simply nonsense and it was meaningless to let high school students participate in a college competition. The other faction thought that this new competition system was interesting and it was a good opportunity for them to see the strength of the high school players on the current national server.
Then, the topic shifted to the strength of the representative teams from the Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou E-Sports Associations.
Basically, most of the players in the local server were just curious about the game.
After all, it was a team selected by the Esports Association. Even if they were high school students, their strength should not be too bad, right?
However, there were also some players who scoffed, especially the members of some high school teams. They even directly expressed their dissatisfaction on some platforms.
"Even high school students want to join in on the fun?"
"Do they really think the National High School League is a game?"
"They're going to be taught a lesson every minute."
However, the top eight and top four teams of the previous National High School League remained silent on the matter and didn't make any comments.
They were also cautiously observing the situation.
This was the first time the National High School League had done something like this. Presumably, it wasn't a meaningless move. In that case, the three teams from Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou might really have some strength.
At the same time, they couldn't be underestimated or taken lightly.
Of course, in the various forums on the internet, the local players were discussing this topic in an uproar. As for the representative team of the Shanghai Television Association, they did not pay attention to this matter at all.
Because today was also an even more important day.
Tang Bingyao's birthday had arrived.
… …
Tang Bingyao's birthday party this time could be said to be extraordinarily large.
This was because it wasn't just Lin Feng, An Xin, Ren Rou, Ouyang, and Yang Fan. Wei Dong, Liu Yue, and Chen Ze were also here.
The other members of the Shanghai High School League's representative team were also here.
Two days ago, when the five members of the Shanghai High School League's representative team were training, the members of the two teams happened to come to watch and learn. After training, Lin Feng casually invited Ceng Rui.
"Hey, it's Tang Tang's birthday the day after tomorrow. Zeng, you guys should come too!"
"The more people, the merrier!"
Ceng Rui, who had an indifferent personality, was about to reject the offer, but An Xin smiled and persuaded him, "Don't worry.
We're all teammates who will be fighting side by side in the future. This can also be considered as fostering the relationship between teammates, right? "
Coupled with Lin Feng's enthusiastic encouragement, Ceng Rui finally nodded and agreed.
As for the other members of the Shanghai High School League's representative team who were only there to watch the training, they were also invited.
Recently, the members of the esports clubs from both sides often came over to observe and train. There were also all kinds of team battles in actual combat. The relationship between them had also become much closer.
So when they heard Lin Feng's invitation, the Shanghai High School League's representative team was immediately tempted.
However, they still had to look at their captain and wait for Ceng Rui to make the decision.
Just the fact that the No.13 High School Esports Club had An Xin, Tang Bingyao, and Ren Rou, these three beauties, was enough to make the Shanghai High School Team envious.
They didn't ask for more, even if it meant more opportunities to interact with these girls.
That's also very good!
When Ceng Rui noticed his team members looking at him with eager and hopeful gazes, he rubbed his temples and nodded.
"Mhmm."
"Then let's all come together."
The Shanghai High School League's representative team cheered excitedly.
Because of this, the birthday party was quite lively that night.
A small private room had been booked at the hotpot restaurant. It was filled with more than a dozen people, all of whom had come to celebrate Tang Tang's birthday.
This kind of lively scene … was extremely rare for Tang Bingyao.
In fact … it would even cause her, the birthday girl, to fall into a daze.
In the past, she didn't have many friends. Even if it was a so-called birthday, she would simply buy a small cake for herself, or ask her grandmother to make a bowl of longevity noodles with a poached egg. After eating it, her birthday would be celebrated.
She didn't have anything else to remember.
But now …
The table was full of people, and the lively and joyous atmosphere made Tang Bingyao a little absent-minded. After a long time, she came to a conclusion with uncertainty.
It seemed like she also had a lot of friends.
She could also celebrate her birthday in such a lively manner.
Suddenly, Tang Bingyao felt a little happy.
Very happy.
Then it was worth celebrating.
And if it was for friends, some things could be made an exception.
With this in mind, Tang Bingyao suddenly stood up from her chair and almost lost her balance. She swayed left and right twice before she regained her balance. Then she carefully took out her small purse from her pocket and waved it in front of everyone with a blushing face.
"Today-"
"M-my treat!"
Everyone was stunned.
