Chapter 161.1: Please behave and eat sugar honestly.



Chapter 161.1: Please behave and eat sugar honestly.

There was one other person who understood his expression. It was Coach Chen, who was sitting below the stage. He almost fell off his chair!

Fortunately, Chen Feng’s complexion was naturally pale. Otherwise, his current appearance would definitely make others suspicious.

Why did he look so pale?

What has scared you so much?!

Ning Zhehan was seated beside him. Little Ning gasped and exclaimed, “I was almost scared to death.”

Cong Yi sat beside Ning Zhehan, and he didn’t seem bothered at all. “What are you afraid of.”

Little Ning wasn’t on guard against him. “I thought that Brother Xiao was confessing in public…”

Chen Feng came back to his senses and interrupted, “Watch the game.”

Ning Zhehan’s back tensed up, and he sat up straight. “Mm-hmm!”

Cong Yi glanced at Chen Feng out of the corner of his eye and didn’t ask anything else.

The group of players had entered the competition stage, and the referees verified their identities and equipment.

Professional players naturally had their own peripherals, but the ordinary players were more casual and made use of the equipment provided by the game officials.

The cameras swept over one by one, showing the layout of the stadium on the big screen.

There were still only ten people up on the stage, but the set-up was totally different from how it was in previous 5v5 games.

There were no teammates here, only enemies. Naturally, the layout had to be set up in a way that prevented peeping; although nobody peeked at screens in 5v5 games, things weren’t the same now. The disadvantages of peeping at other people’s screen in a 5v5 game outweighed the advantages, but the situation was reversed for the big brawl.

The game officials had combined the stages, and the ten players sat in a semicircle, facing outwards. The screens had anti-peeping coating, and there was enough of a gap between players. At the same time, it allowed the players to face the audience.

Without mentioning how the game itself went, just this new circle seating set up was new and refreshing.

At the center were the most popular professional players. In turn, there was Money, Fu Li, Moonlit, Eurostar, Asleep, and Wei Xiao.

Tian Xi sat to Wei Xiao’s right, followed by the lucky ordinary players. The two girls sat to Money’s left and had already started blushing with excitement.

This all-star line-up had triggered the audience’s enthusiasm, and the live broadcast room’s scrolling comments were also sweeping by explosively.

“The officials are so evil! They broke up my Money and Little Moonlit!”

“Ying, my Captain Fu and Star-star have been separated.”

“For the first time in so many games, the person sitting to the right of our Captain Fu has changed to a different player.”

“Fellow sisters, look on the bright side. How about shipping the double captains? Is the Star and Moon CP not attractive?”

“… Evil cult, get the hell out of here!”

Compared with RR and TPT’s ‘double pairings’, Asleep and Wei Xiao seemed slightly pitiful.

Out of the two of them, one of them was the only one representing their team, and the other one’s captain was far away in North America.

The game hadn’t yet started. Wei Xiao said to Asleep, “I’m in a better situation than you are. I can see my captain when I enter the game.”

Asleep: “……”

Wei Xiao was sour. “Fine, your vice-captain is watching you from below the stage.”

Asleep: “……”

Wei Xiao tried to get even, “Cong Yi’s no good. He didn’t even want to fight side by side with you.”

Asleep: “……”

Wei Xiao was very happy. “My captain is different. He’s still on the same battlefield as me despite being thousands of miles away.”

Asleep: “……”

Wei Xiao really had the ability to start up a conversation with him. “Yes, yes, yes, we’re not teammates in the game, but I have Close hanging over my head!” Just look at my ID, hey.

Asleep: “……”

This time, they were real ellipses and didn’t mean anything else. He was left speechless!

Fortunately, there was no team chat in the big brawl (because there were no teams). Otherwise, if this segment was cut and made into a clip, it would stir up enough noise to fill up the skies.

The audience in the live broadcast studio didn’t know what they were talking about, but they could tell that the two of them were ‘having a good conversation’.

In particular, in the Gossip Emperor’s broadcast, the cult CP fans had already sprung up crazily, like spring after rain.

“I’ve never seen anyone talk so happily with Sleep-sleep before.”

“How about the Grand Sleep CP!”

“One Lamp Grandmaster, a man who can always light up Sleep God!”

“Brother Sleep looks at Quiet differently.”

“Yes, yes, yes, his gaze seems particularly heated!”

Bai Cai’s lips twitched as he looked at the scrolling comments. Unfortunately, he couldn’t say anything.

He couldn’t just tell everyone: The grandmaster’s heart already belongs to someone. Don’t blindly put a green hat on Close’s head!

Knowing too much really wasn’t a good thing. His heart felt blocked.

For the sake of his captain, Bai Cai diverted the cult fans’ attention by switching to another camera.

Each division had already started the competition process. The cameras were cycling through close-ups of each competition zone’s opponents.

Brother Cai split up the screen. The upper left corner showed the domestic competition zone, the upper right corner showed the North American competition zone, the lower left was for South Korea, and the lower right was the European competition zone.

Coincidentally, the four split screens all showed familiar faces at the same time.

On the top left was Asleep and Wei Xiao, the top right was Lu Feng and Yuan Ze, on the bottom left was Kim Sung-hyun, and the bottom right showed Yan Jiang and Xie He.

The previous Team of Gods showing up on the same screen in such a situation triggered the tears of many old fans.

“I’m in a daze. Screenshot?”

This scrolling comment set off a thousand waves. Countless people began to press the pause button and take screenshots like crazy.

Even Bai Cai took a screenshot.

The big screen that showed these seven people, who each had outstanding appearances and their own characteristics, was really eye-catching.

Asleep and Wei Xiao didn’t need to be mentioned: one had eyes that were half-lidded, looking sleepy as he nestled in the e-sports chair in his usual half-awake state; the other had black hair, pale skin and broad eyebrows, blinking at the camera and flashing his small tiger teeth, his appearance enough to make viewers’ scalps go numb.

In a foreign competition zone and surrounded by strangers, Close was still calm and collected. He hadn’t been seen in public for nearly two months, and his short hair had grown a little longer, covering his ears and making his jaw line appear more delicate and sexy.

Yuan Ze was to Close’s right. It was also a side profile, but their temperaments were different. Yuan Ze had a smile that wasn’t a smile on his lips, and his black earring flashed in the light. He looked flippant, and his scum man aura was filled up to the max.

The South Korean competition zone camera obviously favored Kim Sung-hyun. This beauty with the tear mole near his eye was right at the forefront, and the other players were only shown in the background, like contrasting green leaves that showcased a red flower.

The European competition zone was very much in love with making trouble. They’d purposely put Yan Jiang and Xie He together and were now displaying a super close-up of these two former teammates.

High appearance value was a tradition at FTW. Each member of the Team of Gods had immortal level outstanding appearances.

Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, and Close didn’t have to be mentioned again, but Xie He and Yan Jiang weren’t bad, either.

The light fell on Xie He’s face. The corner of his mouth was taut, and the corners of his eyes naturally tilted down. He glanced at the camera out of the corner of his eyes, his gaze cold and sharp.

Moonlit was also known as Little Xie He. It wasn’t only because he played like Xie He, but also because of his character.

When it came to prickly characters, if the God Xie from back then claimed to be second, then nobody would dare claim first place.

To Xie He’s left was Yan Jiang, whose appearance contrasted sharply with his.

Yan Jiang could be said to be the most mysterious person in the Team of Gods, a support player who’d gained a spot of honor in the Temple of Glory. Looking back on the first ten years of Glory, and even looking forward to the next ten years, he was probably the only one with such an achievement.

His features looked very gentle and elegant, and didn’t carry any sense of aggressiveness at all. Sitting there in the contestant’s seat, he still gave the camera the feeling of a spring breeze.

But believing in his appearance would be a huge mistake.

He had a shocking affinity for collaborating with others, and also a terrifying grasp over control skills.

These two extremely contradictory attributes came together and created this support god.

Those who were his teammates could experience heaven and hell at the same time.

Whether it was heaven or hell depended on his mood.

There was no doubting that the former Team of Gods had a large number of fans in China.

The cameras didn’t move, and the scrolling comments had already gone crazy.

Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He, Yan Jiang, Close. These five people’s names almost filled up the entire screen.

The new generation of fans didn’t know much about them and started asking questions one after another.

It was alright when they didn’t ask, but once they asked, it was endless and difficult to calm down.

“Holy shit, is the Team of Gods so easy to ship?!”

“Listen to this elder sister. It’s enough to just eat some sugar from the current FTW twin junglers. Don’t go and start digging up old things!”

“Please behave and eat sugar honestly. Don’t go and dig up knives! It’s really distressing!”

The players of each competition zone were all in position. The commentators also started the pre-competition warm up.

At the end of the day, the big brawl was still a new game mode, and the commentators needed to introduce the rules to the players in detail.

After all, the purpose of this all-star opening game was to promote the new game mode. They had to inspire the players’ interest and ignite their fighting spirit.

The commentators for the China competition zone consisted of two famous commentators and one active professional player.

Brother Big Mouth was one of the commentators, and the other one was called Anwa. The professional player commentator was 3U’s Li Chun.

They’d originally wanted to invite Cong Yi, but Cong Yi had refused, so 3U had sent Li Chun over instead.

Li Chun was quite reserved in nature, but fortunately, the commentators were experienced and adjusted the situation accordingly.

Brother Big Mouth asked Li Chun, “Has God Chun ever tried playing in the big brawl mode?” As a professional player, adding ‘god’ to their name was a polite form of address.

Li Chun was a little uneasy. “I’ve tried it.”

Anwa continued the conversation, “How did it feel? Was it very exciting?”

Li Chun knew that he should toss out a tidbit at this time,.“It was really quite exciting. I encountered Quiet in D Zone, and his plays made my scalp go numb.”

Brother Big Mouth: “Oh? Is Quiet very strong in the big brawl mode?”

Li Chun smiled wryly. “He slaughtered 15 people in D Zone alone. Is that considered strong?”

Anwa’s surprise was timely. “So strong!”

Through this introduction, they explained the basic rules for the big brawl.

At the start of the game, 100 people would be transported to the Sky Island of Light.

The Sky Island was another space that was suspended high above the Glory canyon, surrounded by a vast white fog. Players could vaguely glimpse the wings of a big Roc and a huge Kun swimming in the waters below. It was like a dream-like fairyland.

Directly above them, a golden semi-circle halo shrouded Sky Island.

The contestants would be within the aura of the halo when they first arrived at Sky Island. As time went on, the aura would shrink, eroded by the white fog.

It was very dangerous outside the aura. There were countless ancient ferocious beasts wandering outside, devouring all traces of life.

Once players were exposed to the space outside the aura, they would lose all their health within 30 seconds, and it would be game over.

So, if they wanted to live, they had to stay under the protection of the aura at all times.

However, the area covered by the aura grew smaller and narrower over time due to the continuous shrinkage. The limited supplies couldn’t support so many people, so if they wanted to remain standing at the end, they would have to constantly plunder and kill.

In the end, the aura would shrink down to the size of a single person, able to cover one person only. This person would be the only survivor.

At that time, the halo would enter the survivor’s body, Sky Island would disappear, and tens of thousands of ancient beasts would all surrender to them.
