LOL: You don’t want to be broadcast live on the entire network, right.?

Lee Jae-wan asked, "Their top laner seems to be called The Shy. Is he very strong? Did he cause you a lot of trouble?"

Chen Yiqiu responded: "Well, he is very strong and talented, and is still in a period of rapid growth."

"But it's not a problem. I enjoy playing against him."

Li Zaiwan looked at his two top laners and said, "You have to be careful. If you meet IG, you must be careful in the top lane and don't give them any chances."

Soon, the restaurant became lively. With the joining of RW, all four LPL teams arrived.

However, each team occupied a separate place and kept a distance from other teams, with no intention of sitting together.

On the contrary, Top Esports and SKT were like a "brother team", sitting next to each other.

Seeing that other LPL teams didn't come, Li Zaiwan muttered quietly: "Why do I feel that the atmosphere is not right? Are you being excluded in LPL? You are being excluded."

Peanut laughed: "Excluded? How is that possible? We can't be excluded. Have you ever seen the number one in a region being excluded?"

Soon, more people came in, but it was not one team, but four teams!
Dozens of people came in from the restaurant together. Chen Yi Qiu took a look and found that some of them were acquaintances.

The leader is the FW team, they are all old acquaintances, and the following three teams are also from the LMS region, but they are not so familiar.

This season of LMS is very extreme, with FW being the only team that stands out, while the other teams can be said to have almost no voice at all.

After the LMS team came in, they started looking for a place to sit. They noticed Top Esports at first, so they chose to stay away from Top Esports.

But an embarrassing thing happened. The four LPL teams are scattered, and they want to avoid all the LPL teams. What should they do?
It seems like there is nowhere else to go. No matter where I go, I have to be close to an LPL team.

In the end, they chose IG!

Maybe it’s because the IG players are relatively young, and except for Rookie, they have never participated in world competitions, so there is not much interaction with them.

"Is the LMS region also going to participate in the Intercontinental Championship?" Suddenly, Li Zaiwan's voice was heard.

Chen Yiqiu responded: "You don't know? Our intercontinental competition is played by three regions together, LCK, LPL and LMS."

Li Zaiwan paused and shook his head: "I really don't know. I always thought there were only LCK and LPL. When they discussed in the meeting, they only talked about your LPL and didn't talk about the LMS region at all."

At this time, Peanut also spoke up: "It's the same here. We haven't discussed LMS. If I hadn't seen them participating online, I wouldn't have known about it."

This is a bit embarrassing. Neither the LPL nor the LCK region takes the LMS region seriously.

Soon, the waiters started serving the dishes. Everyone ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was very good.

Suddenly, Chen Yi Qiu saw a few familiar faces walking in from the door, they were also here to eat.

KZ!

After the KZ team members entered the room, they were still looking for a place to sit down. At this moment, they noticed Chen Yi Qiu and other members of Top Esports.

So the KZ team subconsciously chose a table farthest away from Top Esports to sit down, showing their fear.

Seeing this scene, Li Zaiwan laughed: "Hahaha, I found that KZ seems to be very afraid of you. It must have been defeated by you."

Chen Yi Qiu smiled but said nothing. If you look at the history of the league, the KZ team is just a flash in the pan. These players have no championship potential, so there is no need to spend too much energy on them. They can't even dominate the LCK region for a long time, let alone compete for the S championship.

A moment later, the GRF and AFS teams also entered the restaurant. Eight teams from two regions were there!
Just when the atmosphere was a little depressing, two phantoms appeared at the door. Kim Min-wo and Zhao Eun-jung walked in. After entering the door, everyone from GRF, AFS and KZ subconsciously looked over.

After all, the two are well-known hosts of LCK, and they meet each other often during competitions. Everyone has a good impression of them.

"Over there." Jin Min-wo noticed the location of the Top Esports group and came over with Zhao Enjing.

The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became awkward. Why did the famous LCK female host ignore the LCK team and go directly to Top Esports?

Li Zaiwan snickered: "It seems that you will be hated by all LCK teams. You are attracting hatred."

Chen Yiqiu said calmly: "As long as you are strong enough, you don't have to worry about attracting hatred."

After finishing their meal, everyone at Topbo returned to their respective rooms to rest. In the afternoon, the twelve teams from the three divisions were brought to the venue for filming and some footage was shot. In the evening, everyone at Topbo chose to rest and did not arrange any further training.

The next day, the Intercontinental Championship began.

At the competition venue, the game has not started yet, but fans are queuing up outside to enter the venue.

Today and tomorrow are both group matches, with a total of twelve games. Teams from all three regions will participate, and then they will be ranked according to points.

Soon, the first game began!

RNG vs. fw!

Before the RNG players went on the court, as comrades from the same division, they naturally had to cheer for RNG.

UZI also made a promise: "Brothers, watch our performance later! Beat up fw!"

Ning cheered: "Ohh! RNG! Come on RNG, I'm your fan!"

Everyone laughed when seeing this scene. Ning has a good personality and is easy to get along with.

Chen Yi Qiu and the LPL players were watching the game in the lounge when the RNG and FW players came on stage.

The result was not surprising. RNG completed a dunk on FW and killed them all!

RNG also specifically asked Karsa to play. You should know that Karsa switched from FW to RNG this season. He knows his old teammates in FW very well, so the game went very smoothly for him.

Xiaohuasheng commented: "I found that RNG seems to be quite good at bullying weak opponents. As long as they protect the bottom lane and break through from the bottom lane, they can quickly destroy the opponent's defense."

Chen Yiqiu responded: "Well, RNG has a stronger desire to attack, and can quickly end the game when encountering a team weaker than them."

Soon, the RNG players returned to the lounge, each one walking with the wind.

Everyone came forward to congratulate:

“Good job, RNG!”

"Nice, what a good start, Uzi is awesome!"

"I feel pretty stable. Who will play next?"

"Our IG!" Ning stood up, he couldn't wait to take action.

The second game is between IG and M17, which is also a team from the LMS region.

Ning also pretended: "Brothers, look at how we beat them. It will definitely be faster than RNG."

Letme was not convinced: "You are almost useless. FW is much stronger than this M17. Unless you are faster than us when fighting FW, it doesn't mean anything."

Both teams came on the field, but the game was not as smooth as expected. IG's victory over M17 was not a one-sided crush. IG gave many opportunities, which caused the normal game to drag on.

Of course, IG won the game in the end, it just wasn't a very pretty sight.

Li Xianghe commented: "IG seems to lack a good commander. They always do some unnecessary actions with little benefit but high risk."

Chen Yiqiu nodded: "Yes, that's true, but from a certain perspective, it's difficult to command these five people. No one in the team can completely control the others, and I guess no one has this idea." "Maybe letting each of them make their own decisions is the best situation for their team."

As the two were talking, the IG players came back and the LPL players came forward to congratulate them.

Even though the victory wasn’t so beautiful, it was a win after all.

Ning herself felt a little embarrassed: "Oh my god, this M17 seems to be quite something. I thought they were pushovers."

Chen Yiqiu joked: "Is it possible that you gave them too many chances?"

"It seems...that's right." Ning scratched his head.

Then, the third game began!

This game is between Top Esports and AFS!

Chen Yiqiu took out his phone and took a look, and found some amazing statements in the forum:

[TOP vs. AFS, brothers, here we come! ]

[Isn't this the second generation of SKT's top laner versus the third generation? So exciting? ]

[I heard that Marin was going to leave after the Spring Split, but because of the Intercontinental Championship, where he might meet Chen Sheng, he decided to stay with AFS to finish the Summer Split.]

[What the hell? Is there such a saying? There is something to it. ]

[Does Ma Datou want to prove himself? Is the second generation better than the third generation? ]

[That's enough. Marin is indeed very strong, but he is not as comprehensive as Chen Sheng. ]

Marin has also accumulated a lot of fans. After all, he is the first top lane FMVP in the history of the S game.

In the eyes of the previous generation of top lane players, he is like a true god.

At the game scene, in the commentary booth, Wawa and Miller were ready.

Wawa explained: "What is about to take place is the third game of the first day of the Intercontinental Championship group stage, with Top Esports from the LPL region facing AFS from the LCK region!"

Miller continued: "I'm sure many top laners, especially SKT fans, will be looking forward to this match, because it's SKT's second-generation top laner Marin versus third-generation top laner Chen Sheng!"

At this moment, the data of Chen Yi Qiu and Marin appeared on the big screen, as well as their makeup photos, just on both sides of the screen.

First of all, in terms of honors, Chen Yi Qiu's honors naturally crush Marin's. After all, he has two S-League championships, while Marin only has one.

Then there are the career data. Whether it is the hero pool, output ability, or survivability, Chen Yi Qiu's lead is very obvious.

However, Marin is also very dominant in the top lane position, but his era of dominance is different from that of Chen Yi Qiu.

What followed was the wonderful scenes from the two people's professional careers. Marin's flight lasted for another 20 seconds, and Fiora went forward and reversed the team battle.

Chen Yi Qiu has more, including "The Last Precision Etiquette", "Kassadin, the Promised Level 16", and "Illaoi's Cross-Border Faith".

Wawa commented: "Accompanied by exciting music, we briefly reviewed the careers of the two world No. 1 top laners. Now, they are standing on the stage together and will face off head-on. Let us look forward to their performance!"

Immediately afterwards, players from both teams came on stage, with the top laner leading the way on both sides. The director gave close-ups of Chen Yi Qiu and Marin, creating an atmosphere of a fateful showdown.

Chen Yi Qiu stood on the stage, enjoying the cheers from the audience below.

Just then, he noticed Marin's gaze and they smiled at each other.

The players from both sides are in position and enter the BP phase of the game!

Top Esports is on the red side and AFS is on the blue side.

This game does not put much pressure on Top Esports, after all, AFS is only third in the LCK.

Hongmi walked behind Chen Yiqiu and asked, "What are you going to do in this game?"

Xiao Huasheng interrupted: "Brother Yi Qiu, we support you in the top lane duel, just play whatever you want!"

Chen Wei also came out to cheer for Chen Yi Qiu: "Come on, Chen Sheng! This time we are all your audience, little fans, watching your performance."

Chen Yiqiu smiled: "You have so little confidence in me? Just play normally."

AFS chose to target the middle lane in BP and banned Galio, Zoe and Taliyah.

Seeing this scene, Wawa commented: "Hey, this AFS ban is interesting. They actually released all the top lane heroes. What's the trick?"

Miller analyzed: "Is it because the mid lane is under a lot of pressure? We all know that Kuro is a well-known 'scientophobia' patient. If we don't help him ban a few mid lane heroes, he may feel that he can't play. In comparison, the situation in the top lane may be better."

Entering the hero selection stage, the blue team's AFS locked onto Shen on the first floor.

This confused everyone at Top Esports.

Peanut became excited: "What does that mean? What does Marin mean? Brother Yi Qiu, he wants to challenge you and take away your signature Shen!"

Seeing this, Chen Yiqiu smiled and said nothing. Although it seemed that the other party had this idea, was it really so? It was hard to say. I was afraid that there might be a possibility of a change in the formation, so there was no need to rush.

It was Topbo's turn to choose Hongmi and asked, "Should we grab the top laner first? They may ban the top laner later, so you may not get the hero you want in the second round."

Chen Yiqiu said: "Noxus, give me a Noxus."

Xiao Huasheng started to make a noise: "Oh! Yi Qiu's Noxus! Finally I see Yi Qiu playing Noxus!"

"To be honest, I've wanted to see you play this hero for a long time. Now many top laners are playing Noxus in the game, but the effect seems average. I think we should let Yiqiu play."

Chen Yiqiu explained: "Professional players will all pull, so it is difficult for Noxus to achieve the five-hit combo effect that players in the casual game have. This is normal."

Peanut responded, "But Brother Yi Qiu is different. I'm ready to yell 'nice'. Come on, Brother Yi Qiu!"

Top Esports locked onto Noxus on the first floor, and the audience was shocked:
"Oh my god, what's going on? Top Esports' Noxus? Is Chen Sheng going to kill everyone?"

"Here we go! I finally see Chen Sheng playing Noxus, chop him up!"

"Wash your neck clean and wait for me across the street!"

"Ruthless Iron Hands, killing everyone!"

In the commentary booth, Wawa commented: "It's actually Noxus? And it's Noxus that is locked on the first floor. Although the opponent has already confirmed the top laner Shen, it takes courage to choose Noxus so early."

"Because Noxus is a hero that is easily kited, if the opponent sees you pick Noxus, they might choose a highly mobile lineup, and then it will be difficult for you."

Miller confirmed: "That's right, in this match, the top lane is between Shen and Nasus. It is unlikely that these two heroes will develop peacefully. The one who is alive cannot last hit!"

The BP was still going on, Top Esports got Sejuani on the second floor, and it was AFS' turn to choose.

Miller commented: "AFS has locked Lucian and Alistar on the second and third floors. This bottom lane combination is very aggressive. Now AFS's mid and jungle have not been determined. Top Esports has a counter position on the fifth floor. I estimate that it will be given to Faker."

Wawa continued: "Top Esports got Xayah and Rakan on the third and fourth floors. As expected, the counter position on the fifth floor is given to the middle lane. Now it depends on what Kuro chooses in the middle lane. We all know that he has a fear of science. Now he has to be countered. The pressure should be very high." (End of this chapter)
