Chapter 278 Abandoning Literature for Martial Arts: Zhou Yu's Path to Survival, and the Optimistic Family Undercurrents

Within minutes of transmigrating, Zhou Li deeply felt the system's profound malice towards him.

During the process of searching his memories, Zhou Li quickly discovered that he was also a tragic figure in the League of Legends community.

Samsung Blue and Samsung White disbanded shortly after the World Championship.

Zhou Li, along with his "big brother" Acorn, signed a contract with LGD early on.

Zhou Li also successfully participated in the Demacia Cup held at the end of 14.

In cup competitions like these, clubs sometimes choose to field some newcomers or substitutes to get the team cohesive and, incidentally, discover new talent.

Zhou Li was very honored to receive this opportunity.

After all, LGD Club initially had some hope for Zhou Li.

Although he was a player included as a bonus when buying Acorn, he is still a Korean player, isn't he?

Therefore, LGD hopes that Zhou Li can perform well and occasionally come off the bench to give Acorn some rest time, or even replenish their tactical reserves.

To everyone's surprise, the original owner of this body was a man who, once silent, made a stunning debut.

During the Demacia Cup, he was solo killed 1.3 times per game on average, and was almost taught a lesson by the top laners of all the teams. His average KDA was 0.3, ranking last in all statistics for the top lane position among all the participating teams!

Zhou Li's reputation soared as a result, earning him the title of the worst Korean player among netizens, bar none.

Many netizens even used Zhou Li (周礼) as a unit of measurement.

For example, one gogoing is equal to two and a half Zhouli, and one braised pork is equal to two points and one Zhouli.

Because of his extremely poor performance, he has been heavily criticized by LGD fans, who believe that he is just here in the LPL to make money and coast along.

Subsequently, LGD went even further, personally carrying Zhou Li away.

In the final two rounds of the Demacia Cup, they substituted Acorn.

Acorn immediately displayed the formidable strength of a Korean top laner upon entering the game, creating a stark contrast with Zhou Li's performance.

Therefore, Zhou Li's reputation among netizens is now extremely bad.

After realizing his current situation, Zhou Li sighed.

He never imagined that after a lifetime of struggle, he would return just as he left the beginner's village.

However, having already achieved the feat of winning three championships, Zhou Li's ambition was no longer as naive as it once was.

He opened the Records of the Grand Historian and began to study it, recognizing his own abilities.

He has a chance to inherit the ability.

Logically speaking, among all one's abilities, "unparalleled intelligence" should be the most useful.

Because this ability provides him with more than just in-game strength.

However, after thinking about it, Zhou Li finally gave up on the idea.

He raised his hand and looked at it; his slightly slender arm was nothing like it used to be.

The original owner of this body was an orphan who was bullied every day, and her body was malnourished.

If it were his previous body, that chair smash would probably have left Acron in the ICU or even the morgue, not in a hospital bed.

As for LGD, Zhou Li knew that using his previous methods, it wouldn't be easy for them to gain a voice here.

GODV, the mid-laner, is indeed very strong, but he is also very arrogant and has a bad temper.

Most importantly, Taobao Quan is a jerk; his personality is exceptionally arrogant.

After winning the LPL Summer Split championship, he started to consider himself a champion jungler every day.

The key to his relationship with Gao Dewei is also very subtle. Although Nakano is supposed to interact frequently, their relationship is not good at all.

Gao Dewei thought Taobao Quan was incredibly lazy, while Taobao Quan thought Gao Dewei was bad at the game and not as capable as him.

When a team has too many self-centered players, trying to win them over with game skills is actually not very effective.

Even if you win all ten of your solo matches against Taobao Quan, he'll still say, "I'm a jungler," and "What's the point of soloing? Only elementary school kids solo."

Given Zhou Li's current status, it's clearly impossible for him to secure a place in LGD through conventional methods.

He was suddenly somewhat glad that he had impulsively labeled himself mentally ill.

An orphan who lost both parents, and also mentally ill—he's got all the buffs stacked up!

The most important thing now is to have a certain ability to protect oneself.

While it's true that mentally ill people can kill without breaking the law, you first need to be able to kill someone. And the abilities you gained from Acorn can also create a perfect synergy.

To be honest, if he weren't mentally ill, could he have intimidated Taobao Quan and Gao Dewei just by relying on his gaming skills?
That's obviously impossible. Of course, there was another path that Zhou rituals could take.

As is well known, LGD's owner is a woman, and this woman is a well-known strong woman in the industry, with a domineering personality and absolute authority in the club.

If you can win over this female boss, you'll have won over LGD.

So Zhou Li hesitated for a long time and gave up his unparalleled intelligence to choose a socialite—of course, that was impossible!

Is Zhou Li the kind of gigolo who lives off women?

Therefore, after much hesitation, Zhou Li gave up his unparalleled intelligence and chose the ability derived from the declaration of death.

[Super Hero: Activate Super Hero Mode for five minutes, adrenaline surges, five minutes of exercise equals one hour, rapidly improving physical fitness.]

Studying medicine won't save LGD, studying literature won't save LGD either, this time he has to learn martial arts!
Orphan, mentally ill, superhuman, with explosive physical abilities.

This is the real buff elite!

Moreover, if all else fails, he can use his eight-pack abs to talk to the female boss again, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Zhou Li stood up and sat down next to imp.

"Hey, who are we playing in our practice match this afternoon?"

He had already become a fringe player for LGD, and was rarely notified to participate in scrims.

But with Zhou Li being so intimate, Imp might not be able to handle it.

After all, their previous relationship was only that of fellow villagers.

“You’re invincible,” Taobao Quan suddenly said. “You don’t even know who you’ll be playing in practice matches.”

Upon hearing Taobao Quan speak, Zhou Li picked at his ear.

He couldn't help it.

Zhou Liteng suddenly stood up from his seat, a movement that startled Taobao Quan, who quickly stood up as well and said:

"What are you doing?"

[Deterrence +1.]

Upon seeing the system notification, Zhou Li stared at Taobao Quan and smiled, making Taobao Quan feel a chill down his spine before he sat back down.

"Who are you hitting, pfft?"

He put his arm around Imp's shoulder.

The giant soldier's body visibly stiffened for a moment.

[Deterrence +1.]

"Oh... I don't know about Koh Jing? I went drinking yesterday."

Zhou Li released imp's shoulder and patted him on the back.

"Drink less alcohol, it's bad for your brain."

Inside the LGD training room, everyone's faces were filled with strange expressions.

They suddenly realized that Zhou Li's claim that he seemed to have a mental illness didn't seem like nonsense.

In fact, Zhou Li was not deliberately feigning mental illness.

He was just speaking and acting in his usual way.

However, the image of the timid predecessor had already been deeply ingrained in people's minds, while Zhou Li's confidence was etched into his bones after so many trials and tribulations. The difference between the two was simply too great.

Therefore, to everyone in LGD, Zhou Li is now like a completely different person.

Seeing that no one really wanted to talk to him, Zhou Li slumped down in his seat in frustration.

"Oh well, let it be. Anyway, I've only unlocked the big bug, so I can only play the big bug no matter who I fight."

He didn't think about how to build a good relationship with the LGD guys.

Although that reverse arrow was indeed labeled as a pity, anyone who knows about LPL this year knows that it was entirely LGD's own doing.

You can practice being good at cooking, but being stupid is truly beyond saving.

They've gotten so arrogant even without winning the championship. If they actually won, they'd be in heaven!
