This morning was destined to be engraved in the minds of countless players.
Everything that happened in just 20 minutes, the amount of information contained, shook the entire internet in an instant.
First, there was the official press release from Fist.
The plans and arrangements for all the major new and old competitions were announced one by one.
Then, there was the confirmation of the venue for the new season of the S-League. The final venue was set to be the Bird's Nest in Beijing.
Finally, with God- Hand of God as the leader, the entire internet was the first to publicly declare their position. At this point, the LPL had no way to retreat, only the determination to fight to the death. Even the other major LPL clubs came together, forwarding and following.
"See you at the Bird's Nest."
A series of guarantees and promises.
A series of firm determination.
At the end of the official account of the China Telecommunications Association headquarters, that calm and steady sentence "Leave the Summoner's Trophy," was like a sudden clap of thunder, with the most decisive and sonorous stance, it made an announcement to all the major competition zones around the world.
At the same time, countless players and netizens were so excited that they couldn't help but tear up.
Their LPL …
But he had never fallen!
Yes, year after year of defeat, year after year of disappointment, even this year, when they were the closest to the championship trophy, could only end in such a regretful manner.
But no matter how disheartened they were, the blood in everyone's body was still warm.
Moreover, it was becoming scorching hot once again!
Beijing.
The Bird's Nest!
That was such a shocking word, such a place that made people's blood boil. Then in the new season next year, it wasn't about whether they wanted to win the championship, it was just that … they had to win it!
That was the grandest stage that symbolized competitive sports.
That was their home ground of home grounds.
Once upon a time, their "peers" had created an unprecedented miracle here, defending the honor and dignity of the entire country in the field of competitive sports.
Then today, they had no room to retreat.
They might lose.
But they definitely couldn't lose!
They …
They had to win!
…
In this completely heated atmosphere of the national server, at 8: 30 in the morning, the official website of the national server released another press release.
Again, it attracted the attention of all the players on the internet.
In the beginning, the majority of players and netizens did not pay much attention to the second press release released by the official server.
After all, in the past half an hour, their emotions had been greatly impacted and shocked. The content of the first press release was rich and detailed enough that people didn't think there could be anything more important than that.
However, when these players and netizens calmed down a little and looked at the second news release, they were stunned once again.
The second press release also had a rather plain title.
However, it seemed to be even more shocking than the first draft —
"Adjustments and Changes to the LPL Division League Project."
Under such a title, the entire draft was about a thousand words long.
His words were concise and to the point, without any superfluous words.
To sum it up, there were only three things in total —
First, expand the number of teams in the LPL. From the new season onwards, the LPL Professional League would expand from the original eight teams to twelve.
The four new vacancies would be further selected from the LSPL secondary professional league.
Second, expand the number of teams in the LSPL League. From the new season onwards, the number of teams would be expanded from eighteen to twenty-four.
The promotion tournament would be restarted at the end of next year's Spring Competition. The top four LSPL teams would be qualified to advance to the LPL League.
Third, a month and a half later, led by the local Telecommunications Association branches, regional qualifiers would be launched. The top six teams in the end would be qualified to advance to the LSPL division in the new season.
At this point, it was over.
Thus, the entire server was once again greeted with a moment of silence.
A moment later.
There was another loud rumble!
Shang Cai University's dormitory building, Dormitory 514.
Qiu Le's eyes widened again. He was so shocked that his jaw almost fell to the floor. "What the f * ck?! What the f * ck … is going on?! "
Shen Zhuang, who was next to him, also had a look of extreme shock.
"This is … too extravagant!"
Feng Tao, on the other hand, stared at the screen of his mobile phone and read the contents of the second draft over and over again. In the end, he gasped and said, "I don't think so.
"This time —"
"Our local server's LPL division is really going to change!"
…
Seoul, Korea.
In a hotel room, Lee Daozai threw his phone aside and thought about the information he had just learned from the Internet. He smiled coldly.
"001, what a big move."
Indeed.
This press release from the LPL division, this wave of changes and adjustments, even Lee Daozai, who was a legend of the previous generation of the Korean server, could not help but be a little shocked.
Because this was not an ordinary adjustment.
It was almost to break the old league structure system of the entire LPL division in one fell swoop.
The eight LPL teams had been expanded to twelve.
This was not as simple as an increase in the number of teams by four. The corresponding changes needed to be made behind the scenes, the support of all aspects of personnel and material resources, the coordination from top to bottom, the effort and energy that the participants had to spend could only be described as terrifying.
Even with the strength of the entire division, they would not easily make such a huge change in a short period of time. At most, they would slowly plan and adjust bit by bit.
But now …
This meant that the LPL division intended to completely put everything in place in one go in the new season next year.
M, who was on the side, adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose and smiled.
"Even 001 can't make such a decision. I think it should be the decision of Mr. Lin Songshi from the headquarters of the Telecommunications Association."
Lee Daozai did not seem to care about his companion's correction. He just smiled coldly again.
"Is there a difference?
"Anyway … it's all to pave the way in advance."
Standing at the height of the two of them, they could easily see the real hidden clues from the second press release.
The so-called three points …
In fact, the second and third points were just to serve the first point.
And in summary —
The LPL expansion team quota was pushed down to the LSPL expansion team quota, and then pushed down to the regional qualifiers opened by the various Telecommunications Association branches. In fact, looking at it from the bottom to the top, another path was paved outside the original rules of the competition.
Naturally, this path was specially prepared for certain people.
"You've put in a lot of effort."
Lee Daozai commented with undisguised mockery and contempt on his face.
"Do you think this … can change the situation of the new season next year?"
"Ridiculous."
Hearing his companion's evaluation, M was silent for a moment and shook his head.
"It's just the beginning.
"We can't be too confident until the end."
Li Daozai nodded slightly.
"Of course.
"So, it's time for us to move."
M nodded, and a smile finally appeared on his face.
"Yeah.
"I haven't seen those old friends for a long time."
