Rise

There are still twenty minutes left, and the quarter-finals of the East China Division are about to begin.

In the competition venue, the staff backstage have begun the intense final busy and preparation phase.

"Lights, ready."

"Radio, ready."

"The live screen signal is OK."

"The network signal is OK."

"Today, the four teams in the two groups have finished signing in. The two teams in the first group will go to the waiting area in five minutes."

Reports from subordinate staff kept coming from the intercom. Chu Fangnan nodded slightly and said something encouraging:

"Thank you for your hard work."

"Today's game is over, I'll invite everyone to dinner."

Immediately, cheers rang out from the walkie-talkie channel:

"Long live Brother Chu!"

"Hahaha, follow Brother Chu and you will have meat to eat."

As the vice president of the Shanghai E-Sports Association, Chu Fangnan has always been strict in his work, but he is also approachable towards his subordinates. He is always very popular among his subordinates.

Chu Fangnan smiled when he heard the cheers coming back through the intercom.

Then he raised his head and looked towards the audience seats not far away from the stage. At this time, the audience seats in the competition venue were already filled with people and extremely noisy and lively.

The first group played today...

It seems to be the Zhejiang University VS Electronics Association team.

With this thought in his mind, Chu Fangnan became a little distracted and couldn't help but think of the conversation he had with President Fang Hao in the president's office of the E-Sports Association office building before this evening.

…

"That kid Ah Hang... actually came out too."

When Fang Hao, who was sitting at the chairman's desk, heard the news, he couldn't help but feel slightly moved.

Chu Fangnan also nodded with emotion:

"yes,

That guy Ah Hang has never participated in any LOL e-sports related events since he retired more than three years ago. He even ignored the Zhejiang University e-sports club that he built by himself. I really thought he was just that. I am determined to go to graduate school. "

Fang Hao smiled slightly:

"Graduate school is naturally a good path for ordinary people."

"Compared to being a professional e-sports player, in the eyes of mainstream thinking, it is definitely much more promising."

"but"

Having said this, Fang Hao paused and looked out the window leisurely, his eyes looking a little deep:

"After all, there will be a group of people who will go all out to pursue their dreams, regardless of the cost."

"That boy Ahang..."

"Actually, Xiaofeng and I are the same kind of people."

Chu Fangnan listened carefully to Fang Hao's words and carefully tasted the meaning. Suddenly he figured out something. A look of surprise flashed across his face, and he subconsciously looked up at Fang Hao:

"Brother Fang, what do you mean?"

Fang Hao smiled, but his eyes were still outside the window. The sunset covered the sky, as colorful as fire, and he slowly said:

"I mean, the 'Edici' from back then"

"Maybe he'll be back soon."

…

Returning his thoughts to reality, Chu Fangnan thought about the final judgment made by Fang Hao before, and couldn't help but feel a little warm with slight excitement.

In the S1 season that year, the Chinese LOL professional e-sports circle was far from as mature as it is now.

But in that era, there were endlessly talented and amazing professional players. Even compared to these LPL professional players who were already at the end of the S5 season, they were only stronger than weak.

Chu Fangnan had always couldn't help but think about what if those people from back then could return again.

In fact, many people are not too old even now.

As long as the belief in chasing dreams is still there, those people back then will still be able to shine with incomparable brilliance even if they return to this e-sports arena after a few years.

Just think about it, Chu Fangnan can give many examples.

For example, in Lin Feng's team back then, except for top laner Tian Tian and jungler Eleven, the other three players, including Lin Feng, all retired.

But even if we don’t mention Lin Feng, even Aqiu and Amuna are definitely top-notch professional players now. However, those two people have all left the professional circle after Lin Feng and have never been heard from again. .

Even Shi Hang

Thinking of this, even someone with a good personality like Chu Fangnan couldn't help but hate Lin Feng with a bit of hatred;

That brat retired with a group of people out of nowhere.

But having said that, now that Lin Feng has returned again, he can actually scare an old man like Shi Hang out of the mountain again so quickly.

It's always good news.

A smile appeared at the corner of Chu Fangnan's lips, but then something suddenly occurred to him, and his brows furrowed slightly:

The only troublesome problem is that

The Zhejiang University Team and the Electronics Association Team met early in the quarter-finals of the East China Division. Ahang and Xiaofeng had to go head-to-head so early, which really caught people off guard.

These two teams originally had the potential to compete for the national championship, but now...

When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured.

Even Chu Fangnan doesn't dare to confirm what the final outcome of today's group of matches will be.

Although he knew that Lin Feng was slowly regaining his previous form, facing Shi Hang, who had exceeded the upper limit of the A+ level strength evaluation index, the outcome was still difficult to judge.

Shaking his head, Chu Fangnan thought:

We can only wait and see.

…

Bystanders have the mentality of bystanders.

As for the Shanghai Electric Association team, one of the participants in this competition, hearing the shocking news from the Zhejiang University team made almost everyone in the team feel numb.

Zeng Rui's expression suddenly changed on the spot.

He finally realized where the uneasiness and sense of uncertainty that had been plaguing him in the past few days came from.

It was indeed his miscalculation.

I never expected that the Zhejiang University team would actually invite that person to come out in person at this critical juncture of the quarterfinals!

Zhang Hao's face was also extremely pale:

"This is bad."

"That's Shi Hang...it's said that he is a top professional player whose strength index exceeds the upper limit of A+ level."

"Zhejiang University was already strong enough, but now its strength has jumped to another level. How can we fight like this?"

how to spell?

To put it bluntly, such a being comes out and takes the position of mid laner.

Then the biggest pressure will naturally fall on the mid laner of the Shanghai Electric Association team.

Tang Bingyao looked at Lin Feng with some worry.

An Xin, who was on the side, still had a calm smile on her face. She turned her head and glanced at Lin Feng, and said with a half-smile:

"This is the trouble you caused."

"Of course I have to leave it to you to solve it, right?"

The words made Zhang Hao and Zeng Rui on the side stunned and did not react immediately.

But Lin Feng had a beaming and excited smile on his face:

"Hahahaha, I didn't expect that at all!"

"Did I actually blow that guy up?"

"My face is quite big, hahahaha"

Zeng Rui's eyelids couldn't help but twitch. Is the guy in front of him really crazy now? At this time, hasn't he figured out the situation yet?

The opponent... is a real top professional player!

Even though he has retired for many years, his level of strength, awareness and various operational skills are still below A+ no matter how low he is.

How can this guy still look so relaxed! ?

An Xin's eyes fell on Lin Feng, and she suddenly spoke, rarely asking in a serious tone:

"May I?"

She has absolute confidence in Lin Feng, but she also knows that Lin Feng is still trying to regain his former form. In addition, this time the opponent is Shi Hang, a top player whose strength has almost surpassed the national college league level. She couldn't help but solemnly confirm with Lin Feng again.

Lin Feng paused after hearing this, shook his head, and replied honestly:

"Not sure. "

Then he took another deep breath and raised his head, his eyes flashing brightly:

"But you still have to fight when you're not sure."

"That rascal……"

"Just leave it to me!"

There was an indomitable determination in his tone, and a determination to fight that was already beginning to burn and boil.

ten minutes later.

The first group of matches in the quarterfinals of the East China Division has officially begun.

Amidst the roar of screams, cheers and applause, the players from the two participating teams slowly walked towards the stage.

Zhejiang University team.

versus.

Shanghai Electricity Association representative team.
