After escorting the drunkards back to their place, Luocheng turned and walked back to the university.

Just as he reached the gate, a beautiful and familiar figure passed by him.

“What a coincidence, you’re late in coming back as well.” Luocheng said as he greeted Bai Feifei.

“I was doing some handover in the club,” Feifei replied.

“Handover?” Luocheng echoed, not quite understanding her.

“I quit,” Feifei said in a low tone.

“Why?”

Feifei remained silent, not answering his question, and the two of them walked in silence toward the dorm.

“Congratulations on winning the match,” Feifei said after a while, probably tired of the silence.

“Ah, you know.” Luocheng said as he chuckled.

“I was watching in the afternoon. Even though I didn’t really understand much, I heard that your performance was outstanding and it was because of you that the match was won.” Feifei replied.

The spectacular scene in the afternoon really moved Feifei’s heart, she had never imagined that an e-sports game could be so popular to this extent. Seeing the enthusiasm from the people gathered there, Feifei felt as if her whole perception had shifted.

Was it possible that e-sports was not what the adults were saying?

That it actually was a type of sports?

“They played well too,” Luocheng said, his tone humble.

The two didn’t talk much after that, and after walking Feifei back to the dorm, Luocheng returned to his own room.

His roommates were all asleep, and Luocheng had drunk quite a bit too. Washing up swiftly, he fell onto the bed to get some shut-eye. Until the time he drifted off to dreamland, the drunken words from Da Luo and Lin Dong remained on his mind.

The E-sports National University League was still in full swing. After the video of the match between Shanghai University and Zhejiang University was uploaded onto the net, the name of the godlike Support player was suddenly spread like wildfire across the various universities!

For a while, the E-sports Club webpage of Shanghai University view count soared, and the university’s homepage even opened another page specifically to promote the E-sports Club.

Shanghai University’s top team didn’t disappoint either, after defeating Zhejiang University, they moved on to defeat another team who was in the top eight—Tongji University, and now, they ranked among the top four!

Stepping into the ranks of the top four, the university happily presented special awards to them during the assembly. Soon after, major companies that often collaborated with Shanghai University also took the opportunity to offer sponsorships to the E-sports Club. The funds were given to Mr. Fang to decide how the distribution would be toward the club members.

After playing their way into the semi-finals, Luocheng suddenly found himself with enough funds for his own use. Looks like he had enough funds to bring Qianqian to the beach, and most likely, she also wanted to go to Hainan. If he could find a chance to bring her to Hainan, Luocheng felt like he would have everything then, hey hey hey!

As the University League gradually entered the finals stage, countless teams were also competing in Champions War, Media War, and Server War, to gain the qualifications to enter the preseason!

The preseason was also the qualifying round of LPL Spring Season!

Every year, only eight teams would qualify to enter the LPL, six out of the eight teams were chosen from preseason matches. The top two teams from the Champions War would be able to directly enter the LPL Spring Season.

In other words, unless you already had the qualifications to directly enter, whether it be old or new teams, you would have to qualify in preseason if you wanted to enter LPL!

During this time, all the well known teams within the country would gather in Shanghai, like a moth to a flame.

The Internet Cafe League champion team, Champion War’s strongest team, Provincial Sponsors’ customized team, National University League’s finalist team, boss teams in major servers, and countless professional teams who were popular...

All of them had been fighting their way through countless second-tier matches just to qualify for the LPL preseason! If they managed to enter LPL, then only would their e-sports career be in the eye of the public, otherwise, the third and second-tier teams would have little development potential!

***

The e-sports circle was still considered immature, and the teams who could truly shine were only the eight teams in LPL. The spotlight was currently only on the top four teams in the LPL, and the resources that could be obtained by the bottom four teams were scarce compared to them.

Even if you managed to enter the LPL, it wasn’t a guarantee that you would hit the jackpot, don’t even talk about those teams who hadn’t managed to enter the LPL at all. E-sports teams had to go through competitions if they wanted to stand out.

Team Skycrown was well aware of this fact, hence, they hadn’t bothered wasting their time trying to obtain any sponsorship or commercials. It was all meaningless to them, what they wanted to obtain was the peak, and they needed to aim for the LPL!

***

The preseason qualifiers were coming closer, and Team Skycrown was participating in the Media War competition. They needed to qualify in this competition for them to obtain the preseason qualifications.

Luocheng seemed to have fallen into a routine. During the day, he would attend classes, and once he was done with club activities, at night, he would go out of the university, pack food for five, and head toward Team Skycrown’s accommodation.

He himself had struggled in his professional career and had seen many people with extraordinary talent for gaming. However, having the talent was secondary, because what a professional player really needed was the perseverance of ordinary people.

Twelve hours of training every day, and ten out of the twelve was repetitive, boring training, which was farming, movement and positioning, and reaction training. Only then, the remaining two hours were actual combat practice.

There were a lot of talented players who wanted to become professional e-sports players because they thought that they could earn money with it, which was what they wanted...

Ah, those who thought so were so naive.

The boring training and mental stress experienced by a professional player every day was not something ordinary people could tolerate. Just like now, for the sake of standing out in the preseason, Team Skycrown had not stepped foot out of the door for days, apart from that one drinking celebration session with Shanghai University.

For their meals, they would call for delivery, and Luocheng would pack food for them at night for supper. Apart from eating and sleeping, they were always in front of the computer screen.

The fortunate thing was, apart from Xiao Bei who had not gone through this gruesome experience before, the rest of them were able to endure and persist through it.

Standing out in the competition was the only road that Team Skycrown could take.

Luocheng was well aware that Team Skycrown had a high chance to rock the boat, and they had to pull out all stops to make their name stand out!

During this period, Luocheng would help them unconditionally, no matter whether it was in their daily life or competition. He sincerely hoped that they would succeed and obtain what they truly desired in the field of e-sports!
