Glory [e-sports]

Chapter 160.2: He confessed in front of the whole world!

Asleep, who’d been sleeping deeply, also slowly opened up his eyes to stare at Wei Xiao.

Wei Xiao took the initiative to speak up without Cong Yi’s translation, “It’s me, it’s really me!”

Asleep closed his eyes.

Wei Xiao continued, “I even used that account to solo with you before.”

Indeed…

The grandmaster’s clients had basically seen all sorts of alt accounts.

Cong Yi was laughing. “You guys are really capable. You can form a group and make your debut.”

His coolly spoken words made the three victims instantly transfer their gazes to him.

Cong Yi spread his hands. “Who told you guys to be so focused on fighting and killing? Look at me, I don’t want to go to the big brawl at all.”

Eurostar was aggrieved. “Me either…”

Fu Li glanced at him.

Eurostar straightened up. “As men, we should fight in the big brawl!”

Cong Yi tsked. “Fighting, Euro God. 99 big men are waiting for you.”

Eurostar: QUQ!

He wanted to cry but didn’t dare. Life was really too difficult!

He shouldn’t have switched from the top lane to the bottom lane back then. He should’ve switched to play support directly!

The only anchor who’d been invited in the China competition zone was also a familiar face. His name was Tian Xi, a young man with dyed blue-gray hair.

He looked young and didn’t seem much older than them, but in fact, he was 26 years old.

One good thing about being an anchor was that they didn’t have to worry too much about their age. Being able to amuse the audience was more important than their skills.

Tian Xi was smiling broadly as he greeted them.

Professional players might be more eccentric, but they wouldn’t neglect others. They all nodded their heads in greeting.

Compared with Tian Xi’s smooth composure, the three real ordinary players were crazily nervous.

Among them were two girls who’d been red in the face ever since they entered the lounge, and their sighs came frequently after Asleep fell asleep on Cong Yi’s shoulder.

Cong Yi shot them a smile. “Sorry, he didn’t sleep well last night.”

The girls: “!”

Cong Yi: “There’s a game later, so let him sleep a while longer, okay?”

The girl hurriedly said, “Yes yes yes, o-okay!” She was so excited that her words were difficult to understand.

After preparing for a while backstage, the staff came over to call for them.

As they went from backstage towards the front step by step, they could feel the shockwave from having the attention of thousands of people.

The host had already been talking for a long time. When the contestants stepped up onto the stage, there was an amazing round of applause.

Asleep, Money, Moonlit, Fu Li, Eurostar, Wei Xiao, and Tian Xi were all very popular.

In particular, there was also the matter of the IDs, which made the fans even more energetic. They were very excited to see the holders of the IDs.

Wei Xiao had very good eyesight and had seen many wonderful light signs from afar––

Money says, Close Has Great Skills.

Star-star sighs, Close Is Very Strong.

Captain Fu praises, Close Has Super Endurance.

Quiet Likes Close The Most!

Hm…

Wei Xiao was a bit satisfied to see that. Although his captain was far away in North America, Close was lighting up the whole court!

That’s right. There was a feeling that the whole arena was filled with love rivals.

Wei Xiao comforted himself: His boyfriend was too handsome. He had to adapt to it.

The hosts interviewed the players one by one, starting with the ‘real’ lucky players. The two girls were flustered, and the scripts they’d prepared came out in a mess. Fortunately, the host was experienced and was able to guide them well.

Next up was Tian Xi.

Although Tian Xi had never been on such a big stage, he was still a celebrity who had millions of visitors in his live broadcast room all year round, and his mouth was very sharp.

The host tossed out a few memes, and he picked up the thread of the conversation well. The atmosphere was very lively.

Next up were the ‘fake’ lucky players.

The host smiled like a fox and asked Eurostar, “I didn’t know that Eurostar liked Close so much.”

Eurostar had made preparations a long time ago. “Who doesn’t like Close?”

The host asked deliberately, “Does everyone like Close?”

The whole audience kicked up a fuss, and FTW fans yelled loudly, “We love Close the most!”

Wei Xiao: “……”

Fine then, he didn’t need to ‘have a feeling’. It was true that his love rivals were everywhere.

Eurostar was an easy target, and the host teased him for a while. But when it came to Fu Li, Money, and Moonlit, she was more restrained with her questions.

These people weren’t good to provoke. Messing up while streaming live wasn’t something to joke around with.

So, the host avoided a certain sensitive topic and talked seriously.

When it was Asleep’s turn, the host was even more direct. She simply talked on her own and praised Brother Sleep’s recent performance.

It was clear at first glance that this was an experienced host. If she really tried to interview Asleep, then it would be embarrassing for the whole audience.

Let’s play it out in our brains.

Host: “Good evening, Asleep.”

Asleep: “……”

Host: “Are you confident about tonight’s game?”

Asleep: “……”

Host: “Are you planning to fight for first place?”

Asleep: “Zzzz…”

Host: “……” Her salary was going to be deducted until nothing was left!

The last interview was with Wei Xiao.

The host had heard a bit about Wei Xiao and knew that he had a quick tongue.

She’d seen how his words could be shocking in earlier regular season interviews.

The host didn’t want to mess around and politely asked a few routine questions.

Wei Xiao answered seriously.

The host became a little careless––he didn’t seem so bad. This young man was handsome, his voice was crisp, he was polite, and he was really likeable.

So, she talked a bit more.

Wei Xiao was very cooperative. It wasn’t until the time was up that he asked, “Should I introduce myself?”

The host didn’t feel that there was a problem and smiled slightly. “Of course.”

She thought that since it was Wei Xiao’s first time on such a big stage, he wanted to let the audience remember his name.

The little sister who’d been coaxed into trusting Wei Xiao handed the stage over to him.

Wei Xiao held the microphone and was finally able to say this sentence, “Hello everyone, I am I Like Close The Most.”

The lights fell onto the dazzling stage. The young person in the black uniform was smiling, his mouth slightly curved as he stared at the camera.

The tens of thousands of people in the audience: “!!!”

At this time, the Gossip Emperor was also live streaming.

Brother Cai had hidden himself in his bedroom, turned on his voice changer, and was boldly analyzing the situation in each competition zone.

His first focus was naturally the North American competition zone.

Bai Cai understood a lot about Close’s fame in China––

For example, if Lu Feng was in China, then the opening game tickets would’ve sold out in just one second. There would be no need for the game officials to release the heavy bomb called ‘Close’s heavenly group’.

Therefore, the Gossip Emperor first provided commentary on the North American live broadcast.

Originally, everyone had thought that it would be an online competition and Lu Feng could simply make do with L&P’s training room. Now, they’d changed it to an offline game on short notice, and the North American competition zone had enthusiastically arranged a spot for Lu Feng.

In this regard, the China competition zone had also experienced a period of jealousy over this. The content of the exchange had been somewhat like––

“That’s our top-rated player.”

“Don’t worry, we’ll take care of him for you.”

“Ha-ha.”

The North American organizers had even specifically assigned a translator for Lu Feng.

In the Gossip Emperor’s live broadcast room, scrolling comments were being sent out like mad. “That’s not necessary. Our Close’s English is damned good.”

Bai Cai explained, “It’s for the Chinese audience who are watching the live broadcast.”

The North American competition zone had taken this set up very seriously for the sake of traffic.

Although it didn’t have much influence on the on-site sales, it had a very big impact on online traffic!

Lu Feng entered the stadium with L&P, and having a FTW uniform mix in with the L&P uniforms seemed a little discordant.

However, once the camera swept past and gave each person a close-up, everyone stopped noticing the team uniforms.

The European and American aesthetic was different from that of Asians, but universally, a height of 1.89 meters and a clearly high quality body was enough to attract countless fans.

In China, they always liked to give a close-up shot of Close’s upper body, and then rotate the camera to provide shots from all angles. This face of his was always impactful enough to trigger a wave of screams from the scrolling comments.

It was different in North America. They focused more on full body shots and paid special attention to the players’ figures.

The domestic fans couldn’t help but exclaim, “Our Close is handsome no matter how he’s shot!”

He had a good appearance, he was tall, and what’s more, he had wide shoulders, narrow hips, and long legs––

Why was he playing games!

He should be an international superstar!

Bai Cai kept the fans company as they appreciated the captain, but his scrolling comments soon began to explode with news.

“Gossip Emperor! Gossip Emperor! Quickly switch back to the China competition zone!”

“Holy shit, Quiet is badass!”

“I’m dead, I’m dead, the Seclusion CP is real!”

“Quiet’s too capable! He confessed in front of the whole world!”

“What? What?”

The group all began to ask about the situation, and someone immediately began to explain what had happened.

Bai Cai froze for half a second, his movements clumsy as he went to switch channels.

The live broadcast channels for each competition zone were different. He hadn’t yet gone to watch the domestic competition zone.

What kind of crazy thing had Little Lunatic Wei done now?

Could this brat just stop for a while?!

The frightened Bai Cai rushed into the China competition zone stream.

The scrolling comments had already explained the whole story clearly, “Quiet is really the king of conversation topics. He said that he wanted to introduce himself, but as a result, he came up with…”

The scrolling comments were filled with a whole stretch of ‘6666666’, which covered up everything on the screen.

By the time Bai Cai switched over, Wei Xiao had just finished his important affairs.

Everyone at the scene was in a daze, the host included.

Wei Xiao was very calm. He even blinked. “In fact, not only do I Like Close The Most, the other four…”

The host came back to her senses and quickly interrupted his words that seemed to want to scare people to death, “Right, right, right, the ID ‘I Like Close The Most’ is Quiet’s!”

Wei Xiao grinned, “Yes.”

The host was now afraid of this immortal being, “In that case, let’s… take our seats!”

Hurry up and start playing the game, alright? If the interview continued, it wouldn’t be suitable for the live broadcast anymore!

The corner of Wei Xiao’s lips curved. He was in a pretty good mood. But only Bai Cai could really understand what his expression meant––

Thanks to everyone’s disbelief, Laozi can declare sovereignty in front of the whole wide world!

xiin: but nobody will believe you~
