Su Xue couldn't help but feel nervous as she asked Lin Feng this question. Her heart was pounding in her chest.
For countless ordinary players, including her, the ace mid laner of Korea's SSK Team and the leader of the Four Emperors, F, was an existence that they could only look up to.
When they watched the various Korean OGN livestreams or the world finals, they would always comment on SSK and F's performance and gasp in amazement.
But no matter what, there was always a huge gap between them and the publicly acknowledged number one mid laner in Korea.
They were people who didn't even exist in the same world.
But now …
The little brat sitting in front of her was someone who had fought against F in the S1 World Finals!
Even …
It seemed like they were on par with each other, equally matched!
Su Xue couldn't help but feel that this was unreal. It was as if those legendary figures had suddenly become much closer to her, not as illusory and ethereal, but more within reach.
"Fifty-fifty?"
Lin Feng, who was sitting across from Su Xue, paused for a moment. He scratched his head in thought, then nodded.
"Oh, if it's the S1 World Finals …"
"You're probably right."
Lin Feng's tone was as nonchalant as ever.
But Su Xue couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat, almost skipping a beat.
As expected …
It's true!
F * ck! F * ck! F * ck! F * ck! F * ck! F * ck! F * ck!
F * ck! F * ck! F * ck! F * ck! F * ck! F * ck!
Su Xue couldn't hold back her excitement any longer. She hurriedly asked, "Then … what exactly happened back then?
"Then, what exactly happened at that time?"
"I fought the leader of the Four Emperors, F! How did it feel? "
"That guy's really strong, right?"
"You even won two games? How did you win?! "
A barrage of questions bombarded Lin Feng's mind. Su Xue had turned into a gossipy fan, excitedly asking Lin Feng about all the details of that year's finals.
Lin Feng scratched his head again, then continued to focus on his meal. He mumbled a random reply.
"Oh … that guy's really strong."
"I don't think it's anything special.
"That's it."
Of course, Su Xue wasn't satisfied with such an answer. "Hey, you're making light of it … Tell me more about it —"
However, as soon as these words left her mouth, Su Xue seemed to have thought of something and suddenly froze.
She suddenly realized something.
Back in the World Finals of Season S1, Maple, who represented the Chinese server, had fought against the leader of Korea's Yonkō (Four Emperors), F, in the BO5 finals. For ordinary Chinese players like myself, this was naturally a piece of gossip that excited and curious people like myself. However — —
For the people involved back then, perhaps this wasn't something to be excited about.
Because …
After all, in the S1 World Finals, the team that won the championship trophy was F.
It wasn't maple.
That young prodigy, who was publicly recognized as the strongest mid laner in the country back then, lost to his opponent with a 2-3 record.
In an instant, Su Xue felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head, directly extinguishing the excitement and gossiping mood that had just arisen in her.
The higher he stood.
The more he fell, the more painful it would be.
Back in the day, he was only one step away from the championship trophy that every professional esports player dreamed of, but he lost by just one step, narrowly missing out on his dream.
This … was probably the heaviest regret that could only be experienced by the people involved.
… …
Su Xue's enthusiasm immediately died down. She looked at Lin Feng and meekly apologized.
"Um … I … I'm sorry …"
"Shouldn't I have brought it up?"
Lin Feng, who had just eaten a mouthful of rice, didn't seem to mind at all. He casually waved his hand.
"Oh, it's fine.
"Winning and losing are very normal."
I lost to that guy last time … "
"Next time, I'll win it back."
When Lin Feng said this, his face was filled with sincerity and certainty.
Seeing Lin Feng's confident expression, Su Xue breathed a sigh of relief. Her spirits lifted. "Alright.
"That's right, that's right!"
"Of course you can!
"Also, didn't you beat Orian, one of the seven kings of Warrior's world, in the last match in the Korean server the day before yesterday?"
If you can beat one of the Seven Kings, you should be able to do it next, right?! "
Lin Feng scratched his head, then shook his head.
"Not yet …" Lin Feng shook his head.
"My win against Orian was a bit of luck."
Su Xue was dumbfounded.
"Then … what if you beat F now?"
"Of course I wouldn't have any chance of winning!" Lin Feng replied confidently.
He paused for a moment, waved his fist, and complacently added,
"That's why I have to keep working hard!"
… …
Hard work was hard work, but it wasn't easy. Winter break had just begun, so Lin Feng had to relax for a while.
Strike a balance between work and rest. That was the principle.
Lin Feng spent the next two days comfortably cooped up in his house, watching movies and watching anime. When Su Xue started streaming, the two of them would play random ranked games on the Chinese server.
It was a relaxing and relaxing time.
About a day or two later, Lin Feng, who had been staying at home, was called out by his friends.
Ouyang, Yang Fan, Ren Rou, Wei Dong, Shen Ze, and Liu Yue were all relaxing at home for the first few days of the break. But after a few days, they started to get bored.
Staying at home alone and playing ranked games on the computer was a little boring.
League of Legends was a game that required a group of friends to play together in order to be fun.
Hence, everyone made arrangements on the phone one after another. When they had the time, they went to the Internet Cow Internet Cafe that they usually met up at.
It was the same old place, same old room.
Everyone gathered together again, chatting happily and excitedly about their recent experiences at home during the holidays. They also talked about the latest gossip on the local server, or about the legendary cn hook2 player's exploits on the Korean server's leaderboards.
After chatting, everyone was divided into their own groups. They found computers in the private rooms and sat down separately to start playing duos or group games.
Over the next two or three days, everyone spent their time like this.
Apart from the members of the school's eSports Association, the members of the Shanghai Television Association's representative team didn't stop contacting each other after the National University League ended.
Tang Bingyao and An Xin, who often came to the internet cafe with the eSports Association members, were joined by Ceng Rui and Zhang Hao from time to time.
Lin Feng was quite surprised by this.
"Ah, Ceng has been so free lately."
"Doesn't a straight-A student have to study hard during the winter break?"
Ceng Rui rubbed his temples with a calm expression.
"I'm pretty much done with all my homework."
"Strike a balance between work and rest. It's necessary to come out and get some fresh air from time to time."
Lin Feng patted Ceng Rui on the shoulder and laughed.
"Got it!"
"You don't want to leave us either!"
"Just say it! What's with all the excuses? "
Ceng Rui's mouth twitched.
"Not really."
Lin Feng: "Huh? Isn't that so? "
Ceng Rui replied expressionlessly, "I'm just bored."
Lin Feng glanced at Ceng Rui's expression in confusion. He turned to An Xin and Tang Bingyao.
"Ceng, you're being a tsundere, aren't you?"
Tang Bingyao nodded her head in agreement.
"Yeah," An Xin said.
An Xin pursed her lips and smiled. "Alright, alright. Anyway, it's a good thing that we can still gather together ~"
Speaking of good things.
A few days later, something really good happened to Lin Feng and the others.
