From start to finish, the two matches of Reewen's SL had only taken about 10 minutes of work.
Lin Feng and Chen Ting's battle had ended in a draw.
If it was a battle of pride, then it would naturally be best of three and then fight another round to determine the winner.
But at this time, the two of them seemed to have no intention of continuing to fight.
Chen Ting raised his head and smiled at Lin Feng.
"Again?"
Lin Feng shook his head.
"No need."
Chen Ting chuckled and nodded.
"I think so too."
The reason was simple. There was no need.
After two SL matches, both players had a rough understanding of each other's strengths and weaknesses. Be it Lin Feng or Chen Ting, they could both confirm that if they were to continue fighting the Rui Wen SL with the same hero, there was no way they would be able to determine the victor.
Even if you win and I lose, or if I win and you lose, it wasn't a matter of strength.
It was nothing more than luck playing a leading role.
Putting everything else aside, in terms of pure SL, the two of them were indeed evenly matched, and it was hard to tell who was the better.
Lin Feng praised Chen Ting from the bottom of his heart.
"You're good."
Chen Ting also laughed.
"You flatter me. You're not bad yourself."
Lin Feng scratched his head and accepted the compliment without the slightest hint of modesty. "Oh, I think so too."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
There was a sense of appreciation in his smile.
After all, it was rare for them to be able to match an opponent who was evenly matched.
… …
After the B3 Challenger League and SL matches came to an end, the members of 72 ° Internet Cafe said their goodbyes and left.
As they walked out of the cafe, Chen Guo was still a little upset.
"Bro, why didn't you play another match with that guy?"
"It was only a 1-1 draw. That's not enough to vent my anger!"
"That guy was so good at bragging. He wasn't humble at all. Just a few polite words and he was so cocky!"
"You should've taught him a lesson!"
Chen Guo still had an angry look on her face as she spoke.
In front of his sister, Chen Ting put on a gloomy expression again and explained himself.
"Guoguo, you're thinking too simply … It's not that I don't want to help you win, but he's indeed very strong. It's already pretty good that he managed to tie in two rounds. If we were to really fight a third round, I don't have much confidence."
Chen Guo said angrily: "You're just helping an outsider like this! Who cares if you're strong or not? In any case, if we were to fight the third round, I would have thought that you would definitely win! "
Chen Ting shook his head helplessly at his sister's pitiful words and told the truth once again.
"Even if we win, it doesn't mean much."
"Don't forget, they don't play top laner …"
"A professional mid laner can actually use a top laner to tie with me in SL for two rounds —"
"Actually … he has already won."
As Chen Ting slowly said the last sentence, his tone carried a bit of complicated emotions.
Chen Guo was stunned. After a while, she couldn't help but retort:
"Who says he's a main mid player?"
"If he can tie with you in a top laner, then maybe he plays top laner. What do you mean he plays mid? Maybe it's just a cover!"
Chen Ting shook his head and asked in return,
"You don't think he's strong?"
Chen Guo was speechless. Indeed, no matter if it was the first round of B3 in the mid lane or the mid lane SL match against Lin Feng, no matter how unwilling she was, she had no choice but to admit that the other side's mid lane skill was truly unfathomable.
At the very least, he wasn't any weaker than a top laner.
Chen Guo couldn't help but feel sullen. She angrily stomped her feet:
"AHHHHHH! I don't care!"
"I just don't like that guy!"
"Seriously, he's just a high school student. How can he be so strong?!"
Chen Ting laughed: "Aren't you also a high school student? I heard that in the National High School League, the team that won the championship was made up of a few high school students from Magic City. "
Hearing this, Chen Guo also remembered. She humphed a few more times.
"What National University League? If you hadn't been busy with your junior internship and participated in the competition, you might have been the champion!"
Chen Ting shrugged and did not comment on it.
"Maybe."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Our Battle Cup competition isn't even over yet. Let's go, let's go to the next internet cafe and continue wrecking the place. You lost a round here, so you must be frustrated, right? Let's find a weak team to vent our frustrations on. "
… …
After the members of 72 ° Internet Cafe's team left, Lin Feng and the others were in the arena area of the lobby waiting for their next opponent. They took the time to rest and chat for a while.
Thinking about the B3 match that had just ended, Zhang Hao couldn't help but sigh.
"That team from 72 ° Internet Cafe …"
"They're really strong."
"I guess the 'Total Annihilation' award this time will definitely go to them."
Ceng Rui nodded. His expression was solemn.
"Their captain's strength level is very high. According to the strength evaluation system … he should be at least A level or even A + level."
"I didn't expect there to be an expert of this level."
Ceng Rui paused. He frowned slightly, feeling a little puzzled.
"But it looks like he's a college student. But in the National High School League, I don't think we've heard of a top laner like him in the East China region."
Lin Feng laughed. "That's normal. The experts are among the people!"
As he spoke, a certain someone changed the topic and gave a very high evaluation of Chen Ting from 72 ° Internet Cafe Team.
"But that guy is really strong!"
"There aren't many people who can give me that much pressure in a lane."
An Xin laughed. "What, are you tempted?"
Lin Feng scratched his head and laughed. "A little, but forget it. Fatty will definitely be the top laner in the future. But if I can get that guy to be a sub, that's not a bad idea!"
Here, a certain person and the young girl were discussing Lin Feng's future plans for a professional team.
Even though it was still a long way off, Lin Feng still had a lot of preparations to make.
Meeting Chen Ting today was truly a pleasant surprise.
In Lin Feng's opinion, if it weren't for the fact that Tian Tian was already his ideal candidate for the top laner in the future, he would've really thought about Chen Ting.
Zhang Hao couldn't help but click his tongue.
"That guy … that Chen Ting … he's on par with a Circle God?"
"Really?!"
For a top laner like him, Tian Tian, who was revered as the number one top laner in the country, was definitely his biggest idol. Now that he heard Lin Feng compare Chen Ting to Tian Tian, he couldn't help but feel that it was a bit unreal.
Lin Feng rubbed his chin.
"In terms of overall strength …"
"Hmm, then the current Fatty is definitely stronger by a notch."
"But that guy isn't average either."
"His control and awareness for team battles are both outstanding — especially his awareness for team battles. He's probably not that far off from Fatty's."
"Maybe he really has a chance to become the next top laner in the world. Hahaha!"
Lin Feng laughed heartily as he gave his evaluation.
Little did he know …
Some words might sound like they were spoken casually now, but one day in the future, they might actually become reality.
Chen Ting was a name that no one in the country had the slightest impression of.
However, in the near future, a rookie top laner in the national server would be nicknamed "Devil Blade", causing a huge uproar in the entire national server and even in the professional esports circle worldwide.
