Lu Feng, who was on the left, glanced over at Wei Xiao.

Wei Xiao was unaware of it and was still enthusiastically helping a bro, “In a bit, have Old Bai help us take a photo, just like the one with me and the captain. It’ll definitely…”

He hadn’t even finished speaking, yet Ning Zhehan could feel a chill sweep over. He quickly waved his hands, “No need, no need!”

Wei Xiao: “Don’t be shy. Many girls don’t even play games, but they come to the scene every time to cheer us on. What do you think it’s for?”

Ning Zhehan: “…………”

He didn’t know, and he didn’t want to know. Could he choose not to hear it?!

Wei Xiao was really able to see things a little too clearly, “They come to see our love and affection!”

Ning Zhehan: “……………………”

The pitiful granny gray sent his teammates looks that pleaded for help, but Old Yue was deeply engrossed in his chips, Old Bai had his eyes closed to save energy, and the captain…

Lu Feng set down his tablet and glanced over, “Can you do it?”

These words were spoken to Wei Xiao.

Wei Xiao: “Huh?”

Lu Feng: “Two million is enough to affect one point five million?”

Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly saw the light, “Oh, right. I don’t have enough fans. As expected….”

As soon as he started speaking, Ning Zhehan was scared: Big boss, please don’t have the captain help me increase my fans ahhhhh, I want to be alive when I arrive at the training, ahh!!

Wei Xiao’s brain circuits were destined to be different from others. He could be heard saying, “… As expected, some people have to become successful first. How about this, I’ll first take advantage of the captain’s popularity, and after the captain’s CP with me explodes through the whole internet, I’ll take you up!”

Little Ning: “……”

The ups and downs his heart was experiencing now were more stimulating than the finals in the youth training camp!

Lu Feng called out to him, “Wei Xiao.”

Wei Xiao immediately looked over, “Here!”

Lu Feng: “Be focused with your work.”

Wei Xiao didn’t quite understand, “Ah?”

Then, he got it and nodded. “I understand. I will be focused in the future and only work with the captain!”

Lu Feng replied calmly, “Mm.”

Everyone in the vehicle: “??????”

It was fortunate that the drive didn’t understand Chinese. Otherwise, the vehicle would probably have ended up heading towards the suburbs!

Wei Xiao took advantage of one success to get more, “Captain!”

Lu Feng: “?”

Wei Xiao: “See, I’m so sensible and understanding. Can you solo with me a little bit in the next 15 days?”

Lu Feng stressed, “Focus.”

Wei Xiao was surprised, “Only focused on work, and not allowed to solo?”

Lu Feng: “……”

Wei Xiao was now regretting it, “Captain, what do you think about this? I won’t work with you and only focus on soloing with you!”

Lu Feng glanced at the assistant, “Have you finished changing the contract?”

The innocent assistant who was shot at while lying down, “???”

You approved the proposal only five minutes ago. I can’t have finished changing it by now even if I had 10 hands!

All the way until the minivan arrived at the training grounds, Wei Xiao still didn’t have another chance to talk to Lu Feng.

The competition committee had probably obtained quite a lot of sponsorship funds, as they’d directly taken over an entire resort hotel. The environment and conditions were incredibly good.

When they checked in, they were also given game accounts that were linked exclusively to the winter training server.

These IDs had been certified in advance and couldn’t be changed. Of course, there was also no need to change them.

FTW couldn’t be considered to have arrived early. There were other teams arriving in a continuous stream, but they weren’t familiar with each other and didn’t exchange greetings.

3U had departed earlier than FTW, but it was a pity that their flight was delayed or two hours because of a connecting flight, and they hadn’t yet arrived.

The front desk gave Xiang Liu an itinerary, on which was written today’s general arrangements.

All the teams would arrive by evening. There was a pre-training meeting and a performance match at nine o’clock that would mark the start of winter training.

Wei Xiao was curious about the performance match, “Who is playing against whom?”

Bai Cai looked at the itinerary, “Do you need to think about it? It must be L&P and Pro.”

The so-called performance match was definitely a way to have the strongest teams from last season come up on stage. It would simulate everyone’s passion and act as a warm up ahead of time.

L&P was the runner up from last season, while Pro had taken third place. Just thinking about it was enough to make them excited and hot-blooded.

Let alone the fact that L&P’s captain Yuan Ze and Pro’s starting ADC Kim Sung-hyun were old teammates.

These two had once played together in the Team of Gods, and the legends about them were still unforgettable to this day.

Yuan Ze was well-known in North America. To be so respected by Westerners despite being Chinese, there was no need to talk about how strong he was. After returning to South Korea, Kim Sung-hyun crushed all his predecessors, slaughtering a bloody path to the top in the South Korea competition zone that was known for frequently creating immortal ADCs!

Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun had attracted so much fame and attention. In contrast, their old home, FTW, was really a little pitiful.

With the exception of a Close, this year’s FTW still had nothing going for them.

Take a look at the two newcomers. They were very handsome, but what was the use in that?

This was e-sports, where they fought with strength. It was completely useless to have a better face without any achievements.

Other than Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun, the teams from other competition zones hadn’t paid any attention to Wei Xiao’s live broadcast back in China.

What kind of seedling could be found in the China competition zone that had been on the downturn for a long time?

The main rivals were still in the North America, Europe, and South Korea competition zones.

The pre-training meeting was set at 8PM, in a large banquet hall in the hotel.

The competition committee had made arrangements ahead of time. The banquet hall could easily accommodate 100-200 people, and equipment had been set up on the center stage. It seemed that the performance competition that kicked off the winter training would also take place here.

Because the banquet hall was very spacious, nobody’s seats were fixed, and they could sit wherever they wanted.

The teams wore their team uniforms when they entered the hall, so it was easy to identify them. The teams who were from the same competition zone or who were already acquaintances all greeted each other.

The hall turned silent when FTW came in.

Many people stared at Close. Some had heated gazes, some looked sorry, and some were sarcastic––

The number one in the world, with three consecutive singles championships.

This reputation wasn’t false, yet it was also not quite true.

No matter how strong Close’s personal strength was, Close was doomed to be unable to leave FTW, and FTW was already an incompetent team that couldn’t support itself.

A golden phoenix in a dilapidated town. How ridiculous.

These gazes were too direct, and Ning Zhehan, who was inherently more sensitive already, felt uncomfortable.

Yue Wenle was also silent. Bai Cai lowered his gaze and followed behind, not meeting anyone’s gaze.

Wei Xiao frowned. There were ten thousand unhappy feelings bubbling away in his heart.

Lu Feng’s expression was cold as he walked straight ahead.

The air pressure around the entire FTW hit rock bottom.

Chen Feng couldn’t help worrying. Although he’d already done psychological preparation in advance, everything was just empty talk in front of really experiencing this pressure.

Even Wei Xiao’s face was stiff. As for the others…

They’d just sat down when Wei Xiao couldn’t help muttering in a low voice, “Damn it… they’re all staring at Close, what are they looking at!”

Chen Feng: “……”

Wei Xiao continued angrily, “Even I can’t solo with him for these 15 days. They shouldn’t even think about it!”

Everyone in FTW: “…………”

So your frown was so tense, and your expression so serious because you were angry about this?

Wei Xiao was not at ease. He leaned close to Lu Feng and called to him, “Captain!!”

Lu Feng looked at him.

Wei Xiao stared at him, “In these 15 days, don’t solo with anyone!”

Lu Feng was a little shocked.

Wei Xiao stressed, “As long as you don’t solo with anyone, I won’t pester you for solo games either!”

Thinking about how Close had soloed with people for the sake of training matches two years ago, he was really unhappy!

After saying that, Wei Xiao felt that he’d been too domineering and continued explaining, “I mean, you’re not allowed to wrong yourself. If there’s someone you really want to solo with, you can…” Damn it, he couldn’t go on. He felt so sour. As soon as he thought of Lu Feng sincerely wanting to solo with others, he felt so sour that he was making bubbles of sourness!

Lu Feng’s cold face finally gained some warmth, “There isn’t.”

Wei Xiao paused.

Lu Feng spoke softly, “There’s nobody here I want to solo with.”

The sour vinegar bubbles in Wei Xiao’s chest fermented and instantly became a flow of heat, “Really?”

Lu Feng: “They are all losers beneath my hands. There’s no meaning in soloing with them.”

Wei Xiao: “!”

Other than Close, there was nobody else who was qualified to say such a thing.

In the entire banquet hall, there were 18 elite teams that came out of 16 competition zones. It added up to nearly 90 players in starting lineups, and all of them had lost to Close!

Not only was Wei Xiao’s eyes bright, even Ning Zhehan was sitting up straighter.

What were they afraid of?

What was there to be afraid of?

The strongest person in the world was in their FTW. What did they have to be afraid of!

Wei Xiao’s heart was itchy. It was so itchy that he couldn’t wait to turn on the computer and have a huge battle with Lu Feng right now!

The powerful Close.

The dazzling Close.

The Close that nobody on earth could beat!

This was the world’s number one who he’d been chasing after for two years!

Lu Feng paused for a moment, then suddenly added, “Oh, that’s not right.”

Wei Xiao was dazed for a second.

Lu Feng: “There’s still one person.”

Wei Xiao’s mood, that had flown up to the skies, suddenly dropped down again, “Who!”

Was it that nasty guy Yuan Ze?

Or was it Kim Sung-hyun!

Lu Feng smiled, “You.”

Wei Xiao blinked.

Lu Feng revised his statement, “Other than you, there’s nobody here I want to solo with.”
