Chapter 224: Don’t Worry, I’m Here!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Feilong’s face was getting darker, if that was even possible. He couldn’t allow the middle and bottom lane to continue like this, he needed to rely on himself to turn the game around.

ZJU started to group together, constantly pushing and forcing fights.

Feilong was indeed the team’s core and soul, once the captain had joined in the teamfights, the momentum was completely different. It felt like it was a totally different team altogether!

Previously, there hadn’t been much difference in the advantages obtained, as Jax’s farm had not been as good as Renekton’s. Even if he joined the teamfights with the items he had, it wouldn’t make much of a difference.

Wang Jun saw his teammates losing ground and he started to fret.

“I’ll join the fight, I don’t think you guys can hold.” Wang Jun said.

Wang Jun was still at the top lane, and even though they had managed to take down two turrets at the top, the other four had been forced to retreat several times when they had fought under the turret. He could also see that the second turret in the mid lane was almost fully destroyed as well.

“Just take the higher ground at top lane, you can ignore this side for the time being.” Luocheng replied instead.

When you were split pushing, the most damning thing would be to hesitate. Luocheng knew that if Jax were to recall now, it wasn’t likely that he would make it to the fight.

Jax was similar to Vayne, a late game champion. If they didn’t have the proper items, they wouldn’t have as much of an impact like Renekton. As long as they could buy some time, the split pushing tactic would yield great results for them.

Wang Jun glanced at the middle lane where their opponents were pushing toward the highground. Fortunately, he did not dismiss the turret right in front of him and kept on pushing!

***

“We might not be able to hold, if they manage to take our highground on middle lane, we might lose everything.” Xiao Jia said.

ZJU team was in good condition, and if they won the upcoming teamfight, they would most likely break the middle lane all the way into the highground, and this would be dangerous.

“Then we’ll settle it here and now, if Wang Jun comes back to defend, we’ll just be dancing to their tune.” Luocheng said, his voice solemn.

Under Feilong’s leadership, ZJU started the fierce teamfight. Their goal was to go head to head against SHU without any hidden tactics.

Jax’s items weren’t as good as Renekton’s. ZJU’s team strength in battle was way above SHU, and if they were to go against ZJU, they were bound to lose.

The Jungle Dominance Strategy had been thwarted by Renekton joining the fight, so they only had their split pushing tactic left to use right now!

This was the reason SHU couldn’t compromise in any way!

“Shanghai University is quite decisive here, all members of ZJU are already clamoring toward the highground and can rush in at any time, and yet, Jax is actually still solo pushing the lane!”

“The same can be said for Zhejiang University, they are ignoring Jax who is demolishing their turrets. They’re already determined to go all the way into SHU’s highground!”

“Both sides are determined to end this with the teamfight!”

The situation at hand was clear, it was either the four members of SHU being able to withstand the assault from the five members of ZJU, allowing Jax to tear down the top lane subsequently gaining a huge advantage for the team. Or, the members of ZJU would destroy SHU and take their middle lane, perhaps even all the way to the Nexus!

The outcome was dependent on this teamfight, and as the host continued to narrate the game, the thousands of students in Zhejiang University had gone silent, all eyes on the big screen, not daring to blink.

The atmosphere was the same in Shanghai University, Qin Ting as the host on their side also clearly knew that this fight was vital to both sides!

“Zhejiang, must win!”

Someone’s voice broke out, shattering the silence in Zhejiang University.

“Zhejiang, must win!”

It was followed by more shouts, and people even began pumping their fists into the sky.

“Zhejiang, must win!!”

“Zhejiang, must win! Zhejiang, must win!!”

The cheers were like a tidal wave, from initial small ripples, slowly growing into magnificent waves! Every time the cheers of win echoed, even the surrounding buildings felt like it shook due to the vibrations!

Thousands of people cheering in unison, their fists going up and down as they continued to shout to an inspiring beat. On the road, you could see hands going up in pairs, and then down, all in sync. Even in the hallways of the dorms, everyone was doing the same, raising their fists as they cheered for them to win! It was a spectacular sight, even the basketball semi-finals that was held recently didn’t have this big of a sensation!

Unknowingly, the cheers and shouts of the Zhejiang University students echoed far and loud, reaching far out from the university!

***

The cheers of Zhejiang University pierced through Luocheng’s noise cancelling headphones which he wore, and as the noise seeped into his ears, he lifted his head slightly, glancing at the sea of Zhejiang University students, and he suddenly felt something stir inside him.

Just as touched as he had felt when he saw Meiqi cosplaying Katarina under the lighting of the stage that time, e-sports seemed to have evolved when he wasn’t looking. He knew it had been impossible to see such a passionate and eager sea of people cheering before this. They were, in fact, boosting the morale of their opponents while putting tremendous pressure on their own team!

Luocheng’s state of mind was not easily swayed because he had experienced far more than the others, and the first time this had happened was when he was overseas. Instead of the chinese, it had been the white people who were cheering for his team, boosting his opponent’s morale. Even so, he still managed to withstand the pressure and exert his true inner strength.

Luocheng was more concerned about Yang Ying, Xiao Jia, Jinbei and Wang Jun. Could the four of them withstand the thundering applause and cheers that were encouraging their opponents?

You need to understand, when you were in other people’s home ground, the ones you were going against was not only the five players who were controlling the champions. It was also the thousands of spectators gathered who would cause great psychological pressure on you.

They were nervous, holding their breath, and their hearts were heavy until they weren’t able to utter a word. You could see that although they were pressing the keyboard and moving the mouse smoothly, their hands were trembling.

Luocheng had experienced this kind of tremor before when he had first started playing professionally, but he had overcome it after several games of defeat.

However, Yang Ying, Wang Jun, Xiao Jia and Jinbei didn’t have many opportunities to overcome this tension and anxiety. If they lost this round, they would be losing a piece of glory for the university together with the hope of establishing the e-sports club’s position. They would also be losing the prestige that they had established and they would also lose a teacher who was willing to fight for them.

For the sake of their club, they were trying their best.

Now was the hardest time, and it was also so close to success.

In the face of a powerful opponent and their many supporters, the feeling of inferiority and insignificance inside their hearts would most definitely spread.

Luocheng understood the feeling clearly, and at this moment, it was that little encouragement that he needed!

He recalled the times when he was also nervous in the beginning, to the point that he couldn’t even press any keys on the keyboard. It was that firm but gentle look that had calmed him, and that sentence, “Don’t worry, leave it to me.” that had given Luocheng the courage to overcome the tension when playing in professional matches!

Although Luocheng didn’t know where that person was currently, he was grateful to him for helping him build up his confidence when he was once weak, and Luocheng took this confidence to the world stage!

That was why, what Luocheng needed to tell his team who was nervous, was not any strategy, not any skills, nor silently be their pillar of support, but instead…

“Don’t worry, I’m here!”
