Chapter 257: Going On The Stage Himself?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Siyong has claimed a double kill, making his every move clean and careful, just like an assassin hunting down his prey silently!”

“Now, he only has about one-third of his health. Team Skycrown’s ADC has appeared! Caitlyn probably won’t be able to leave alive.”

At the river, Siyong who had obtained a double kill finally encountered a dangerous situation.

Xiao Bei’s Ezreal went in for the kill, launching his basic attack twice, adjusting his position, and firing his Q-skill.

Caitlyn was also attacking while moving backward, after casting her basic attack twice, it seemed as though Ezreal was about to use a skill on her. She then used her E-skill to dodge Ezreal’s Q-skill, retreating all the way down to the mid lane’s brush!

“Whoa!”

A piltover peacemaker came out of nowhere, dealing a lot of damage to Ezreal, leaving only half of his health!

Ezreal had been slowed down by the net, and his attack range was slightly smaller than Cailyn’s. At that moment, Xiao Bei used Ezreal’s E-skill, Arcane Shift, to blink closer toward Caitlyn.

Cling!

Just as Ezreal blinked into the bushes, he triggered the trap. Caitlyn took this moment to create some space between herself and Ezreal while continuing her barrage of attacks. As Ezreal was trapped and unable to touch Caitlyn, Caitlyn has obtained a Headshot from her passive.

Bang!

The headshot landed on Ezreal and now, he was left with less than half of his health!

The grave situation had started to make Wu Sen frown. Caitlyn’s shield had already been used to block Ezreal’s E-skill and the two attacks, if Ezreal were to use his basic attack twice and land his Q-skill, he would most definitely be able to take Caitlyn down.

Caitlyn started to enlarge the gap, and after Ezreal managed to land two hits, he finally used his Q-skill. If the skill landed on Caitlyn, it would be a definite kill.

It seemed as though Siyong had completely predicted the trajectory of the skill and thus, evaded it gracefully. With precise control over his champion, Siyong had dodged the life-threatening skill!

Bang!

Caitlyn continued to hit Ezreal even under the dire circumstances. With the help of one of his items, Phantom Dancer, Siyong took Xiao Bei’s health down to a critical level.

When Xiao Bei saw that he had missed his Q-skill, he got even more nervous and immediately tried to kill Siyong with his ulti.

…

Who could have thought that Caitlyn would actually not run away? Instead, she took a roundabout route and evaded Ezreal’s ulti while attacking him at the same time. The amount of health obtained solely through her life steal was not a small amount.

After missing both his Q-skill and his ulti, Xiao Bei panicked while moving Ezreal forward. Just when he wanted to attack Caitlyn, she had already gone behind the middle brush!

Vision was lost! Siyong controlled the vision and distance very well, so well that Xiao Bei could not touch him!

Bang! Bang!

A headshot landed yet again! As the headshot landed right on Ezreal, with the little health that he had left, he could not have survived the hit regardless.

TRIPLE KILL!

With just a tiny bit of health left, using his skillful techniques and beautiful placement, he had managed to kill Xiao Bei with seemingly no effort at all!

After the triple kill was announced, the crowd went wild!

“Absolutely stunning! I hope no one blinked and missed that awesome play! Siyong showed us his magnificent skills with Tristana in the first round, who would have thought that he could do so much with Caitlyn as well?” Qi Qiao became very excited and it was written all over her face.

“You can’t exactly blame Team Skycrown’s ADC, because Siyong has really outdone himself. Evading skills, controlling vision, setting traps, controlling the distance, positioning… This isn’t just about finger speed and reaction time anymore, it has just become something psychological. When will Ezreal use his skill, when will he attack, Siyong has achieved complete control over Caitlyn’s movements perfectly!”

Upon getting back to his base with a triple kill and only being left with just a sliver of health, Siyong bought the agility cloak and finished his Infinity Edge!

Bloodthirster, Phantom Dancer, and Infinity Edge—these three items were already completed before the 25-minute mark. Now was the time for Caitlyn to wipe the floor with the enemy team!

Seeing that his opponent Ezreal only had a Trinity Force and half the item build of a Last Whisper, Siyong could not help but smile. As the fight continued, so long as he did not get killed, the win would already be in the bag.

…

“Xiao Bei!” Da Luo looked at Xiao Bei in complete frustration.

Missing all of his skillshots, now that was extremely disappointing.

Da Luo was extremely dissatisfied. Under those circumstances, Caitlyn should definitely be dead, but not only had Xiao Bei failed to kill her, he had even gotten himself killed in the process.

With Bloodthirster, Phantom Dancer, and Infinity Edge on Caitlyn, the game was as good as lost.

Lin Dong hastily shook his head at Da Luo, signaling him to not say a word. Da Luo stopped talking and took a good look at Xiao Bei, and only then did he realize that the latter could not even hold the mouse properly.

Xiao Bei’s face was covered in sweat, both of his hands were shaking uncontrollably, and his breathing was increasing rapidly as if he was not inhaling enough oxygen to breathe.

“What’s wrong with him?” Da Luo muttered softly.

“He’s too nervous, don’t talk so much. The more you talk, the worse he will play.” Zhou Yan replied.

Wu Sen and Lin Dong both nodded their heads in agreement. All of them could see that Xiao Bei was visibly shaken. He seemed to be shaking uncontrollably, even more so after being scolded by Da Luo.

The audience remained silent.

They had also passed through this phase before, they knew how it felt to have their hands numb at times like this. What mattered the most now was to give their full support and understanding to Xiao Bei.

Da Luo, Lin Dong, Zhou Yan, and Wu Sen were all nervous too. If things went on like this, they would lose both their matches and it would be hard to make a comeback from the loss in matches.

If that happened, their dreams of being professional players capable of standing in the spotlight would be completely and utterly ruined!

Even so, they could not blame Xiao Bei for it. No one could help him with his stage fright, only he himself had the ability to adapt to the situation.

They could lose this match, but what they could not afford to do was to let Xiao Bei fall even further down the rabbit hole!

…

“Why did this happen?”

“How could this happen…”

These words would only repeat themselves inside Xiao Bei’s head. Right now, he really felt like chopping his own hand off, and the urge to slap himself in the face was undeniably strong.

He had promised Luocheng that he would enter the LPL, obtaining world recognition while bringing Team Skycrown’s name and flag glory and fame. Team Wings hadn’t gotten the chance to be the world champions, but Team Skycrown could definitely do it…

He had never imagined that he would surpass Luocheng, but he had known all along that not obtaining the title of world champions would be a lifelong regret for Luocheng.

After he had left the professional leagues and vowed never to play again, it meant that he would never have the chance to touch the trophy of the champion.

It was Luocheng who had brought him into the professional spotlight, and he also loved playing competitively very much. He was extremely grateful to Team Wings for bringing him from the countryside to an unfamiliar city, giving him the chance to have fun.

It really was too bad that they were gravely injured on the path to being champions. Well, it was time for him to face the wind and continue to tread on this unsteady road. If Luocheng would not be able to hold the champion trophy in his arms, why not bring it back for Luocheng and put it in front of him himself?

They were a team, and if he obtained it, it was equivalent to Luocheng getting it as well. It didn’t matter if Luocheng would never play competitively again, what mattered was that he would not have any regrets and could live his new life in satisfaction.

LPL, the S International League, only after facing these two mountains did he just realize that he had only experienced the tip of the iceberg.

There was still such a long way till the S international league, wasn’t this just a small competition, what was there to be afraid of? Why didn’t he have even just a bit of bravery to relax?

…

Watching the enemy’s advances, seeing his own useless items that were incomparable to the enemy’s, watching Da Luo, Lin Dong, Zhou Yan, and Wu Sen continue to defend the high ground, watching them get picked off by Caitlyn one-by-one, Xiao Bei felt horrible on the inside.

The uncomfortable and deep resentment for himself made his tears well up in his eyes, turning his screen into a blur. Maybe his eyes had temporarily lost it’s vision, but he couldn’t even see where Ezreal was anymore.

He had never once thought that when he entered the professional league, he would embarrass himself in front of thousands of people. He had really taken the professional league too lightly.

…

As the nexus shattered into pieces, it felt as if those pieces swirling around had flown out of the screen and pierced him straight into his heart.

They had lost again.

Just because of him, he had caused the team to lose both rounds.

Xiao Bei could only look at Zhou Yan, Lin Dong, Da Luo and Wu Sen teary-eyed. He couldn’t even say the words “Sorry, I messed up.” anymore.

The rest of the team remained quiet. They had thought that Xiao Bei would have gotten his head back in the game in the second round, but sadly, they had been mistaken.

He really was too young, he was unable to take this kind of pressure as he had never been through anything like it before. If this continued, it went without saying that they would indeed lose the last match, and they would not be eligible to enter the LPL.

To be honest, no one had planned for what comes next if they did not manage to get into the LPL. Could they really endure going without pay for three months? It had taken them so much for the dream to become reality, but was it going to be shattered just like that?

…

“It’s time for a short break, next up is the third match. If Team Skycrown loses again, the Teams for LPL will be set in stone.” Qi Qiao said.

Tinghua looked at Team Skycrown coldly.

They really were a disappointment…

They couldn’t even get into the LPL, don’t even think about defeating Team Sky.

Reality isn’t as nice as you want it to be, go back and train for a few more years. The team that you have right now isn’t even qualified to be our opponents.

Just as Tinghua was about to shift his gaze away, he saw someone coming out from backstage, slowly making his way to the arena.

Tinghua immediately fixed his gaze unto him, his body tensing up as he was filled with rage.

So, you are here too!

Tinghua laughed internally, his laughter tinged with a little craziness.

Luocheng, are you planning to come out yourself?

Now, wasn’t that funny? Didn’t you swear you would never go back into the professional gaming world again?

He really was an asshole who went back on his words!

With this kind of unstable mental state, how could you ever get the title of a world champion??
