When Lin Feng had first accepted Chen Ting's challenge, he had wanted to observe and test Chen Ting.
After all, he was about to create a team, and choosing the best player was of utmost importance. He could not afford to be careless or careless.
Even though Chen Ting had left a deep impression on him half a year ago, a lot of things could happen in half a year. He had to confirm it himself before he could be at ease.
And after four battles, the results … were unexpectedly satisfying.
In fact, Lin Feng had already mentally prepared himself. As long as Chen Ting's individual strength and condition weren't too far off from what they were half a year ago, and maintained the same level of skill as before, then it would already be acceptable. After all, there was a huge difference between a casual player and a professional player who received specialized training in a club.
If a passerby player wanted to improve without professional guidance, no matter how talented he was, he would encounter a bottleneck, and it would be difficult for him to improve any further.
But Chen Ting's performance in the four solo matches not only maintained the same level as half a year ago, he even improved by a large margin!
This was a huge surprise to Lin Feng.
It not only showed that the captain of 72 ° Internet Cafe was more talented than expected.
It also showed that the intensity of his training was not something a normal passerby player could do.
Speaking of which …
Why would a passerby player need such high-intensity individual training?
There was only one answer: he had higher requirements for himself.
Therefore, it led to Lin Feng's words to Chen Ting at this moment.
"If what you want is to continuously become stronger …"
"Then aside from the professional arena, there is no other place more suitable for you."
Lin Feng made this conclusion with certainty. He did not stop there. Instead, he looked at Chen Ting and arched an eyebrow.
"If I'm not wrong.
You should have encountered a bottleneck as well, right? "
Chen Ting paused for a moment, then slowly nodded.
"Yes."
Lin Feng smiled. "That's normal. You're just playing a normal passerby player. This level of training has a limited effect on your strength. It's already very difficult for you to reach your current level, but if you want to improve further … even the Korean server's Champion of Passerby matchmaking is not enough.
Only the professional arena will do. "
Lin Feng concluded. He stared into Chen Ting's eyes.
"It's not just the LPL.
"There's still the World Championship."
"Only in that kind of top-notch competition will you continuously encounter the true top experts and opponents. Only in that kind of competitive environment will you be able to give you enough pressure and motivation to break through."
Hearing this, Chen Guo, who was standing to the side, interrupted and retorted:
"Who said that only the Pro League is good?"
"My brother has played all kinds of Challenger's Matchups in both domestic and foreign servers. He has also encountered many top players from top classes, such as King's Circle God, Cog's Seve.
Also, even SSK's Wolf isn't that much weaker than him. "
Lin Feng shook his head indifferently at such a rebuttal.
"It's different."
"A random matchmaking is different from a professional match."
"Pro players are different on the side and in the pro scene."
As he spoke, his gaze fell on Chen Ting's face again.
"Of course, I'll be able to gain something by playing a high level game against a random player."
"But the question depends on one thing-"
"You want to become a random expert with strong control and matchmaking skills."
"Or …"
"A truly world-class top laner?"
Chen Ting lowered his head in silence. After a while, he looked up at Lin Feng and smiled.
"You've convinced me."
"But I still have one last question."
"Why should I choose you?"
… …
From beginning to end, Chen Ting had asked a total of three key questions in their conversation.
First, why did you choose me?
Second, why did you think I would agree to play professionally?
Third, why did I choose you?
Lin Feng had already answered the first two questions perfectly, but the third question was the most important one.
Because just now, whether it was Chen Guo or Chen Ting himself, they had already revealed the relevant information in their conversation. That was, in the past, many professional clubs in the country had also sent him invitations.
Those were mature clubs that had truly reached a certain scale.
Even the veteran powerhouses of the LPL had been invited.
But now, Lin Feng, who came to the 72 ° internet cafe alone, only had a team that hadn't been completely set up yet. It seemed like he couldn't compare to his "competitors" in all aspects.
As the saying goes, a fine bird chooses a tree to nest in. For professional esports players, finding an ideal club was also incomparably important.
For Chen Ting, if he had even rejected the famous teams and clubs in the country, what reason would he have to accept Lin Feng's invitation?
But Lin Feng's answer was without hesitation.
"Because the team I want to build will be the best in the country, and also the best in the world."
"Also —"
At this point, Lin Feng paused and looked at Chen Ting.
"Aside from me, it would be very difficult for you to find a second person more suitable to help you with your bottleneck problem."
If the first half of Lin Feng's sentence was said to be filled with self-confidence, then the second half of Lin Feng's words, referring to the specific things that Lin Feng had done in the past month, made it clear that he was speaking the truth.
In terms of helping people break through their bottlenecks, Lin Feng's "resume" could be said to be quite impressive, even shocking.
Because in this resume, the two people who had recently broken through their bottlenecks with his "help" …
They seemed to be the two top mid-laners in the world of professional esports.
However, the other three people in the private room naturally didn't know about this, so when they heard someone's words, Chen Guo immediately rolled her eyes and rather bluntly commented:
"Who do you think you are? You have to take responsibility for saying something like that, okay?"
"Why should we believe you?"
This was indeed a problem.
Lin Feng slightly furrowed his brows. He thought for a moment, then looked at Chen Ting and the other two in front of him.
"When did you guys come into contact with League of Legends?"
Chen Ting was stunned for a moment. "If it's me … I think I was at the end of S2. Guo Guo too."
The jungler of 72 ° raised his hand.
"I was earlier."
"I was also at the end of S2, but I started paying attention to the game from S1 onwards."
There was a hint of pride in his words.
Lin Feng's eyes lit up when he heard this. This was a lot more convenient.
"Then you should have heard of my ID."
"In S1, my Summoner ID was Maple."
Huh?
The two siblings, Chen Guo and Chen Ting, were slightly at a loss. They subconsciously turned their heads to look at their comrade beside them. The current manager of Team 72's jungler had a look of deep thought on his face. He muttered "Maple, Maple …" a few times — —
Suddenly, his expression changed.
His eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Lin Feng in front of him.
"You are …"
“Maple！？”
