Chapter 237 A Laughing Discussion of a Play Within a Play in Xizhou, Tears Splatter on the Screen as News Finally Arrives

Royal Never Give Up (RNG) eSports Club.

The clatter of keyboards and the occasional angry curses emanated from the training room.

In the canyon, UZI is arguing with his haters.

[Hey, isn't this the Mad Dog who doesn't care whether he goes to Worlds or not? Why is he playing ranked games here if he's not going to Worlds?]

[None of your business, I'll fuck you.]

Why are you swearing?

[What's wrong with me scolding you, XXXXXX?]

The beautiful keyboard sounds, woven together by UZI's chubby little hands, create a dreamlike and dazzling symphony.

Since Royal Club failed to qualify for the World Championship, the club has given the players a break.

Most of the players have already gone home, but UZI chose to stay in the club and continue training.

Seeing his brother Zhou dominate the world championship, UZI decided that he must work harder and harder to catch up with Zhou Li as soon as possible.

Lu Benwei had told him that day that the reason why friends can become friends is primarily because they are of the same kind and the same social class.

Clearly, UZI is no longer in the same social class as Zhou Li.

He could also feel this deeply, because Zhou Li hadn't taken him to take a bath in a long time.

No matter what, Mad Dog must make it to next year's World Championship!

So he chose to stay and train even after the club had already given everyone a break.

But now his reputation is really bad.

So much so that in almost every game, as long as he was recognized, people would send him blessings or even deliberately sabotage him.

Of course, sometimes teammates might just be bad at the game, but if UZI think they're throwing the game, then they are throwing the game.

For these reasons, UZI has been in a very bad mood lately, and he has even smashed a set of keyboards in the club.

Just as UZI was about to reach his breaking point and add fuel to the fire of the club's financial deficit, insec walked in.

Like Uzbekistan, Insec also chose to stay with the club this time.

"Oh! Little dog, why are you throwing a tantrum again?"

Insec's words slightly curbed the puppy's red-hot state.

Because of Zhou Li, Uzi and Insec, who originally disliked each other, now get along quite well.

Given their similar appearances, it's likely that after spending some more time together, they'll become sworn brothers.

Ever since Zhou Li taught Insec how to play Lee Sin at Royal Club, this once arrogant Korean player has been completely tamed and his admiration for Zhou Li is beyond words.

And they also started actively learning Chinese.

After learning that UZI and Zhou Li were good friends, even the mole on UZI's face seemed more pleasing to the eye. Countless times, I dreamed of going up to UZI and sucking on the mole.

Upon hearing insec's words, UZI looked at the two large characters for "failure" that popped up on the screen and sighed.

"Damn it, I've run into actors again. How am I supposed to play this game?"

“Then let’s stop playing,” Insec was clearly in a good mood. “Didn’t you see Zhou Ligang’s Weibo post?”

UZI was taken aback when he heard what insec said.

"Didn't their match just end?"

"It just finished. He posted it right after it ended. Go check it out. I'll go get you some tissues."

UZI's face scrunched up, and he muttered "crazy person, why are you using paper to look at Weibo?" before pulling out his phone.

As soon as I clicked on Zhou Li's Weibo, I saw the post he had just made.

There was no text, just a video.

UZI clicked on the video and found it was a highlight reel of WE.A's match against FNC.

The first video shows Lee Sin hitting Rengar with his Sonic Wave, and Rengar just happened to leap in the bush, taking Lee Sin around a bend.

UZI was completely confused by this video.

He watched the match while playing ranked games and noticed that Zhou Li's Lee Sin had many incredibly cool plays, so why did they use such a low-quality clip at the beginning?
Just as UZI was puzzled, the video suddenly froze for a moment.

Then, a line was drawn along the trajectory of the blind monk's flight, forming a U-shape.

Before UZI could react, the second scene appeared.

Lee Sin used his ultimate (R-Flash) to kick and send four enemies flying in the top lane!
UZI remembers this scene very clearly; it was the key turning point of the game!

However, the video freezes at the moment when Lee Sin uses his ultimate (R) and flashes!

Then another line was drawn, following the trajectory of Lee Sin's Sonic Wave – side ward placement – ​​R flash, forming a perfect English letter Z!
UZI's eyes widened suddenly, and his heart began to pound wildly without warning!
Could it be that!
The final shot shows the Lee Sin ambushing the Rengar, who was already in a daze from being beaten, as he peered into the bushes.

QEARQ instantly kills the Rengar!
He then casually pierced the enemy's eye and left.

At this moment, the completely unnecessary ward-placing action that UZI had been wondering about finally had an explanation!
This combo happens to form the letter "i"!
The video ends here, and the three English letters in the three segments, when pieced together, form UZI!

UZI's face turned bright red, and his little mouth started gurgling. He couldn't hold back any longer and started crying like a 200-pound child.

It turns out his brother Zhou still remembers him!

Insec, who was standing nearby, was already prepared and promptly handed over a tissue.

He looked at UZI with envy so intense it made his penis turn purple.

To have one's name engraved on the world stage by Zhou Li is an immense honor.

He couldn't understand why UZI was so favored by Zhou Li.
Is it just because he has an extra mole on his face?
UZI opened the comments section while crying.

[Sobbing, I'm crying, it's UZI!]

Remember when UZI said he didn't care whether he went to the World Championship or not? Later, it was Zhou Dudu who persuaded him. UZI also said that Zhou Dudu is not only a teacher in the game but also a teacher in life. This time, UZI didn't make it to the World Championship, but Zhou Dudu still brought his name to the world stage!

Upon seeing this comment, UZI was taken aback. When had he ever said anything like "teacher" to someone?

These fans just love to spread rumors.

But it doesn't matter. Maybe it wasn't before, but it definitely is now. Let alone a teacher, given Zhou Li's affection for him, calling him "father" wouldn't be an exaggeration.

[The general is so kind-hearted, truly a general like the sun!]

[Praise the General!]

However, what LPL fans didn't know at the time was that this video had already caused a huge uproar on the international internet.

Unlike LPL fans, who are focused on different things, foreign fans are more concerned with—

Why did Zhou Li release this edited video less than three minutes after the match ended?!
This is a truly chilling question.

To complete video editing and publishing at such a fast pace, two conditions must be met.

First, someone backstage was editing the footage for Zhou Li while he was competing.

Secondly, and most importantly, Zhou Li had already written a script during the competition, and he had to consciously operate in this way to complete the final coordination!

Because if it were just a coincidence, it would be impossible to discover this content and then edit and publish it in such a short time!
And this leads to an extremely terrifying conclusion!

To outsiders, this seemed to be WE.A's toughest match yet, but in Zhou Li's eyes, he was just playing around!

After all, if the situation were truly tense, how could he possibly have the leisure to engage in such deliberate maneuvers?!

When this truth was laid bare before foreign netizens, everyone was in an uproar, causing a huge uproar.

Meanwhile, at this time, FNC Club...

Although everyone lost the game, they were all in pretty good spirits.

After all, in their minds, this match against WE.A was at least a back-and-forth affair, and their tactics were effective.

The only pity was that Zhou Li's skill level was too terrifying, causing them to fail at the last moment.

But at least we've found some ways to get things done, haven't we?

When they face WE.A again in the second round of the group stage, they might actually be able to defeat them.

It's worth noting that WE.A previously dominated in leagues and world championships with average game durations of only twenty-odd minutes, employing a series of fast-paced, crushing victories.

Although they lost this match, FNC received relatively positive feedback from the outside world, so it can be considered a respectable defeat.

However, before everyone could feel relieved for long, Zhou Li's video, which had gone viral on the internet, began to be pushed to everyone's phones.

After watching the video, the previously cheerful atmosphere in the FNC training room instantly vanished, leaving only a long silence.

Finally, Cyanide spoke up, unwilling to give up:

"So he's been toying with us all along?"

"Then what are we to him, his free extras?!"
-
UZI wiped away his tears, sat in front of the computer, and started watching the game intently.

He had been trying to avoid this World Championship, as he was still somewhat upset about not being able to participate.

But now, he longs to carefully study and analyze each match, even immersing himself in the game.

The live broadcast is currently showing WE.B from Group B versus SSB, the number one seed from the OGN region!

The match has been going on forty minutes.

Team B seems to have only just found its rhythm.

However, at this point, SSB's lead was already enormous! If it weren't for the fact that Korean teams are conservative and don't like to take risks, if it were an LPL team, with such a huge gap between the two sides, they would probably have been wiped out in one fell swoop.

Although everyone knew from the beginning that SSB, as the number one seed from the Korean region, was incredibly strong, Team B would most likely lose to SSB.

However, in today's match, Team B was suppressed by SSB almost from beginning to end, and never found any opportunities, bringing a sense of oppressive suffocation to LPL viewers.

It's like drinking a bottle of paraquat; you know you're going to die, but the process is slow and extremely painful.

UZI watched Team B's match with a frown, completely absorbed in the game, and couldn't help but offer some pointers.

"Oh dear, is Nami's belly still not healed? How come she can't react to this wave!"

"They should be able to react and use Flash in time!"

"Wow, what a pity! I feel like Team B's bot lane was overrated! They were completely dominated by Samsung throughout the game."

UZI muttered to himself for a while, then suddenly blurted out something that shocked insec.

"Sigh, I wish I were in EDG."

"If I were with EDG, I don't know how many championships I would have won." (*)

He thought for a moment, then changed his words:
"Oh, it's called WE.B now."

Insec couldn't hold back any longer and blurted out:

"Then why don't you just go to WE.A? You'll win more championships if you go to WE.A."

UZI paused for a moment, then suddenly realized with a serious expression.

"Damn, you're right!"

Seeing that UZI actually took his sarcastic remarks seriously, insec rolled his eyes helplessly.

"Have you ever thought about why Zhou Li wouldn't let you play AD for WE.A, given your strong skills and close friendship with him?"

UZI paused for a moment, then began to think seriously again.

"Damn, you're right!"

"Why is that? It's so strange!"

He suddenly looked directly at Insec and said:

"Is it because of you? Brother Zhou is afraid that if I go, you'll want to go too. He's a kind-hearted person and doesn't want to refuse, but you're a jungler, so there's no point in you going!"

Now it was Insec's turn to be dumbfounded.

His lips moved, but in the end only four words came out.

"You're invincible."
