Life was often like this.
When you climbed to the top of a goal, you would always encounter all kinds of difficulties and obstacles along the way. You might even encounter a huge problem at the beginning of the climb.
But no matter how difficult the journey was, your goal was always at the top.
As long as your beliefs did not change, you could only grit your teeth and persevere. Regardless of whether you could really overcome all the obstacles, at least you had to have the determination and courage to face the difficulties.
The same was true for eSports.
The so-called "Chosen One" or "Group of Death" may have caused an uproar when the results of the tree diagram were shown. Some were happy, while others were sad. But after the emotions subsided, no matter which group you were placed in, you would still have to fight. You would only know after the fight.
For the vast majority of players and netizens, regardless of whether they were anxious at the beginning or reassured by Morning Star's calm and firm attitude after watching the interview video, they still had to go to sleep tonight.
Only by recuperating would they be able to better prepare for the World Finals, which would officially begin the next day. They would be able to cheer and cheer for the three teams in the LPL division that they supported without reservation.
Yes.
No matter what.
No matter what, worry or anticipation.
In short, this year's World Finals was finally about to begin.
…
When Lin Feng and the others got off the bus from Milton Stadium to the Hilton Hotel, they coincidentally met Number One and a few other seniors who had also just returned from outside the hotel lobby.
When No. 1 saw Lin Feng and the others, he waved his hand and greeted them casually. When he looked at Morning Star, Shi Hang, Tian Tian, and the other players from the LPL division, he only asked them a few questions about the lot-drawing ceremony.
"Group B, C, and D, right?"
"Yes, Brother Chu has already told me the general situation."
Then, his gaze fell on Huangxue Nightsong and Morning Star, and he smiled.
"Group D?"
"It's not going to be easy."
The two ace players of Team God stood up straight with solemn expressions. Even Barren Snow Nightsong, who had been sighing all this while, had a taut expression as he replied in a loud voice.
"No way!"
"Senior, don't worry. Our God will be fine!"
Number One smiled again and patted Huangxue Nightsong's shoulder as if to encourage him. He then looked at Morning Star.
"It's also a good thing."
"With your current condition … If the group stage is as intense as this, it might be a good opportunity for you."
His tone was somewhat meaningful.
Morning Star was slightly stunned when he heard that. Then, he nodded heavily.
"I understand."
"We won't let you down."
His tone was resolute and firm.
Number One laughed again and shook his head. "No, you just need to live up to your own expectations."
Finally, Lin Feng, who had been listening to the conversation for a long time, found an opportunity to interrupt.
"Hey, senior, where's Tang Tang? Didn't she come back with you?"
Earlier in the afternoon, Tang Bingyao was called over by Number One. When he saw Number One and the others return, Lin Feng subconsciously thought that Tang Bingyao should have finished her training.
Number One tilted his head to look at Lin Feng.
"Not yet."
"Bullet is still tutoring her. He'll send her back later. You don't have to worry about her."
After giving his explanation, he didn't have the intention to continue.
"Oh, I see …" Lin Feng scratched his head, trying to find the right words to say. He seemed to want to start a new topic, but he couldn't seem to find the right one.
When he saw Lin Feng scratching his head, the corners of Number One's mouth curled up.
"What? Is there anything else you want to know?"
Being seen through by the senior in front of him, Lin Feng laughed awkwardly.
"Ahaha … No, nothing."
There was a hint of insincerity in his voice.
Number 2, Number 3, and Number 4 looked at each other without batting an eyelid. Their expressions were a little strange, but they did not say anything. Number 1, on the other hand, curled his lips even more obviously. He looked at someone with the ghost of a smile on his face. Suddenly, he put on a nonchalant expression.
"Sure."
"If there's nothing else, come back to my room with me."
"I happen to have something to talk to you about."
Huh?
Lin Feng was stunned and couldn't react.
Morning Star, Shi Hang, Barren Snow Nightsong, and the other LPL members were also curious, but the next moment, Number One turned to look at them again. He smiled and waved his hand.
"Alright, you've all worked hard today. Go back and get some rest."
His tone was calm.
But it was clear that he was asking them to leave.
The LPL members looked at each other. Naturally, they didn't dare to question him. They nodded obediently and left after saying their goodbyes.
Lin Feng started to feel that something was wrong.
"Huh? Are you all going back? "
Then he looked at An Xin, Ceng Rui, Li Shiyi, and Tian Tian with a pleading gaze. "Steamed Bun, what about you guys?"
The next moment, Number One's voice was heard again.
"Steamed Bun Eleven, Ceng, you guys go back and get some rest.
It's enough to leave this kid alone. "
At this point, the others couldn't do anything even if they wanted to help. They could only look at a certain someone helplessly. An Xin's expression changed slightly as if she wanted to say something. However, Number Five walked up and held the girl's hand with a smile on his face. "That's right," An Xin said.
"You guys talk.
If Steamed Bun has nothing else to do, I'll go to her room and sit for a while. "
"Huh?" This time, it was An Xin's turn to be caught off guard. She subconsciously looked up at Xiao Wu, only to see the latter looking at her with a smile. Xiao Wu seemed to be shaking her head at her.
The girl was stunned for a moment, but then she came back to her senses and nodded slowly.
"Mm, alright."
Lin Feng watched as the remaining helpers and helpers were sent away one by one with all sorts of excuses. Only now did Lin Feng truly begin to feel a dangerous aura slowly brewing in the air. He then looked at Senior One, who still had a calm expression on his face, and the other seniors beside him. Although they all looked as if this matter had nothing to do with them, Lin Feng could clearly feel that they were taking pleasure in Lin Feng's misfortune …
Lin Feng felt a little guilty.
"Ah, why don't we call it a night? It's getting late. Let's go back and get some rest. Senior, we can talk tomorrow."
Number One raised an eyebrow.
"What, are you regretting it now?"
"It's too late."
Five minutes later.
Ceng Rui, Li Shiyi, and Tian Tian were all sent back to their rooms to rest. An Xin followed Number Five back to her room. Before she closed the door, Number Five waved at Lin Feng and the others with a smile.
"Let us two girls have a little private talk."
"Take your time."
Lin Feng looked at An Xin with his last bit of hope.
"Steamed Bun!"
The girl could only shrug helplessly. She gave Lin Feng a "good luck" look before she was dragged into the next room by Number Five.
It seemed that the two childhood sweethearts weren't in a good situation tonight.
Only Lin Feng, Number One, Number Two, Number Three, and Number Four were left in the hallway.
Seeing that a certain someone was still dawdling and unwilling to enter the house, Number Three unceremoniously lifted his leg and kicked the person's butt.
"What are you waiting for?"
"Go in."
