Chapter 37
The news that Lex suddenly announced was out of everyone’s expectations.
The reporters at the venue were all full of enthusiasm.
It was as if they had seen their prey.
An international competition was a big event, a big piece of news.
They would not let it go.
The top eight contestants had already been selected.
They had to hurry up and register.
Then, Lex announced the end of the competition.
He took the top eight teams to the alchemy building.
After telling them everything, he left.
Edward waited for a long time before he realized.
When the esports competition was held, they had already taken a big step.
He did not expect the principal to be even crazier than them.
Participating in international competitions was something they had never thought of.
Although it felt unreal, Edward was still looking forward to it.
If he could get an international ranking, it would also be a big step toward his dream.
Thinking of this, Edward put away his thoughts.
Then, he began to gather the top 8 teams.
Soon, the teams of the top eight were gathered.
Forty people left the stadium and walked towards the alchemy building.
They left for a long time before the audience recovered from their shock.
Following that, another round of intense discussions broke out.
The competition was over!
At this time, in the alchemy building.
Lex saw the members of the top eight team again in the conference room.
“Are there any who want to give up on participating in the international competition this time?”
He went straight to the point.
He had never liked people who gave up halfway.
Rather than giving up on participating in the competition, it was better to choose to leave voluntarily.
It would save them from losing face internationally.
All the team members fell into silence.
When they were still students, they were still a little worried when participating in the international competition.
“Principal, does it cost a lot of money to participate in international competitions?”
Someone asked.
When he played games, he hid it from his parents.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he took the money to participate in international competitions…
As a student, he didn’t have any source of income.
He came to ask his parents for his living expenses.
And it wasn’t even to say that he took the money to participate in international competitions.
As students, they did not need any income. They came to their parents for their living expenses.
They simply could not afford to spend so much money.
“Kasage University will pay for all the expenses to participate in this competition.”
Lex promised to the team members present.
His promise made everyone excited.
Now that the most difficult matter had been resolved, they no longer had any worries.
“I’m willing to participate in the competition.”
Edward was the first to express his stance.
“I’m willing!”
“I’ll participate!”
“Me Too!”
More than 40 students chose to participate. Not a single one of them gave up.
Every single one of them knew very well that this was the only opportunity they had in their lives.
If they missed this opportunity, they would regret it for the rest of their lives.
“Very good. This is a good opportunity. I hope that all of you can seize it.”
“Whether esports can rise or not, the hope lies in each and every one of you.”
“All of you must use your actions to tell everyone that playing games can also bring glory to the country!”
Lex said some encouraging words.
This was all he could do. The rest was up to the students themselves.
More than forty members all had firm eyes and solemn expressions.
Lex’s words made them realize how heavy the burden on their shoulders was.
They represented not only themselves, but also the millions of esports enthusiasts.
Their hopes, their glory.
Especially Lex’s last sentence, “Playing games can also bring glory to our country.”
It deeply stimulated them.
Following that, Lex let Monica in and brought these people to register.
There was not much time left, so they had to hurry.
They used half an hour, and all the battle teams reported the names and members of their battle teams.
Finally, they completed this task before the website closed.
At the same time, Lex announced that they would set off in two days.
Everyone had to be prepared.
To communicate well with their families, they had to inform their families in advance.
After all, they were going abroad. They couldn’t just disappear for no reason.
After that, Edward brought everyone to their place of residence.
The next day.
The news of playing games to bring glory to the country spread.
On the major news websites, this news was on the headlines
The topic of esports was not over yet. Now, such a thing had happened again.
This time, all the parents went crazy.
No one believed this.
“Playing games can bring glory to the country? What a joke.”
“Going to participate in the video games competition is a waste of the students’ time.”josei
“That’s right, my children absolutely can not play games.”
“Kasage University again? Can’t they let the students study properly?”
In the parents’ view, how could entertainment be able to bring glory to the country?
Only by learning well could one win glory for the country.
The entire internet was filled with voices of doubt.
No one was optimistic about this competition.
Lex was in his office, watching the comments on the news.
However, he did not care too much.
Because he knew that behind the esports, there were tens of millions of supporters.
In two days, all the team members were nervously preparing.
Because they knew that what they were going to face next was not their usual entertainment.
It was a real challenge.
They did not know what the international situation was like.
They did not know what kind of experts there were either.
Everything was full of uncertainty.
However, they wanted to fight their way out of it!
