Chapter 75 The Holy Monk Performs a Pardon for Sister Bu's Spirit, Cleverly Solving the Strawberry Mystery with Zen Wisdom

Although the match is over, the buzz it generated is far from over.

The hashtag #HolyMonkZhouLiPerformsReligiousServiceForAbuSisterInSouthKorea# once made it into the top ten trending searches.

The funeral of Abu's sister has once again drawn attention, and soon some people began to question some of the unreasonable aspects of it.

Fortunately, at this time, the summoners were focusing more on studying Lee Sin, which prevented the matter from escalating completely.

But this was enough to make Abu Khan drenched in sweat, and he no longer dared to disobey the Zhou rites, becoming even more respectful towards archery practice.

The amazing practices of Zhou Li have become incredibly popular both domestically and internationally.

League of Legends players have started a challenge to replicate Zhou Li's performance in the match.

However, let alone in ranked matches, even in AI matches, very few players can successfully replicate Zhou Li's maneuvers.

The Zhou Family Triangle Kill, named after Zhou Li, in particular, has caused countless Lee Sin players to weep in the dead of night.

In Summoner's Rift, there are an average of two Lee Sins in every match.

They ignored their teammates' harsh words and transformed into compassionate living Buddhas, performing one life-saving act after another in the canyon.

Zhou Li became an idol in the hearts of all Lee Sin players.

He also receives offerings of incense from all non-Blind Monk players.

Chinese players even directly refer to Zhou Li as the Holy Monk, saying that just as the Holy Monk Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty traveled to the Western Regions to seek Buddhist scriptures, the Holy Monk Zhou Li now travels east to Goryeo to promote the prestige of the country.

Subsequently, rumors circulated that Zhou Li and OGN female host Lee Hyun-kyung had a late-night rendezvous.

Fans were completely taken aback.

They said they were still studying the teachings of the holy monk and living as ascetic lives in the canyon, while the holy monk himself was driving a Hummer overseas, and they denounced Zhou Li for bringing shame upon the holy monk.

Many fans were extremely envious, saying that Zhou Li, who "reads the Bible and drives a Hummer," is truly a role model in life.

Busan Hotel.

Zhou Li was doing simple exercises in his room.

Chao Xiong's ability allows him to achieve the effect of an hour's training in just five minutes, but that doesn't mean he can only train for five minutes.

As long as it's within your body's limits, you can keep exercising.

As his reputation as a holy monk spreads far and wide overseas, Zhou Li has become increasingly aware of the importance of having a strong physique.

After all, the holy monk was too easily targeted by female demons.

Zhou Li, covered in sweat, finished his bath and was about to go to bed when there was a knock on the door.

When the door opened, Abu stood there with a worried expression.

"You slut, why are you contacting me so late instead of joining your fans in praying for your sister?"

The OGN tournament schedule is very full, with matches held almost every other day from the quarterfinals to the finals.

Abu sighed helplessly and said:

"Brother Zhou, something's happened that I can't handle."

Zhou Li raised an eyebrow and said with a smile:

"Is there anything Abu can't solve?"

"Strawberry's thinking is messed up, I can't wake him up no matter what I say. They've already made it to the semifinals, and he's telling me he can't play anymore? Is he kidding me?!"
-
Zhou Li frowned as he looked at Strawberry. This stress-resistant king lowered his eyes and looked at his hands, his face devoid of any expression.

Zhou Li had never really paid much attention to strawberries.

After all, what he needed Strawberry to do in the team was very simple: just AFK under the tower.

It's such a simple thing, how can you not understand it?
Just as Zhou Li was getting a little irritable, he suddenly felt a cool sensation in his mind.

Zhou Li knew that this was the result of the factory manager's ability and intelligence.

His mind raced, and he quickly found the crux of the problem, but he still asked:
"Handong, Abu told me you can't keep going?"

Hearing Zhou Li's words, Strawberry gave an awkward smile. "Don't worry, I'll play my best. It's just that after this OGN... we should probably get a different top laner for our team."

Strawberry was indeed under a lot of mental pressure during this period.

Firstly, his former teammates, Dao Ge and IF, have both been demoted.

Judging from Zhou Li's performance in the match, Ruofeng is probably beyond saving as well.

However, Ruofeng's vote to kick out Daoge and IF had already made Caomei realize the reality.

His real pressure comes from—

He felt he was too incompetent.

Back in the old WE team, although he was also under pressure in the top lane, he could still feel his role in the team.

Now, the strawberry has no idea what the meaning of its existence is.

WE generated a lot of buzz online during both matches, but there was absolutely no discussion about Strawberry.

Even if there were criticisms, they were mostly harsh criticisms of Strawberry for being too weak and being the only shortcoming in WE.

What Strawberry found most unacceptable was that the Anti-WE forum changed its name overnight, from Anti-WE forum to Anti-Pressure forum, simply to mock him as the worst player on the team.

Furthermore, Zhou Li's performance was truly shocking to Strawberry, making Strawberry realize that even among professional players, there was a world of difference between herself and Zhou Li.

I may indeed be a burden to the team.

He still wants to be brothers with Zhou Li, but honestly, does he deserve him?
Zhou Li clearly knew what Strawberry was thinking, and earnestly began to speak:

"Handong, you need to understand that everyone wants to carry the game, but to carry the game, you need economic resources to support you. League of Legends is a five-player game, but the map resources are only so big. If everyone wants to carry and everyone wants to eat resources, the result will be that no one can stand up in the end. Just like that game with Anivia, without your sacrifice, I wouldn't have been able to develop."

Zhou Li's words made Strawberry feel a little better. She felt a strong hand on her shoulder and looked up.

"Handong, I firmly believe that you are an indispensable part of WE. Don't let the rumors on the internet mislead you. You're not a noob."

Strawberry nodded firmly, and then Zhou Li continued:
"You're just a slacker."

"..."

"Mixing and cooking are two different concepts. Doing well in 'mixing' is also an art. Your biggest problem right now is that you have too much psychological burden about 'mixing'. I'm going to pass on a mantra to you now. Recite it after me, and recite it whenever you feel down."

“They all look down on me, and I'm not good enough for them.”

Strawberry paused for a moment, then her expression became quite interesting.

Zhou Li, however, was very serious and said, "Read it!"

Strawberry seemed a little embarrassed to say it: "They... all look down on me... and... I'm not good enough for them."

“By the way,” Zhou Li nodded, indicating that Strawberry had done a good job, and continued, “No one will help me reach the Clouds, and I can’t get up there anyway.”

"No one can use me, because I am useless."

"Instead of pushing yourself too hard, give yourself a break."

"Nothing in the world is difficult if you're willing to give up. I won't fight anyone who can defeat me..."

An hour later, Strawberry walked out of Zhou Li's room feeling refreshed.

He finally understood something.

Perhaps he wasn't qualified to be Zhou Li's brother.

but……

Strawberry noticed her phone vibrate; it was a message from Ruofeng.

[Strawberry, are you asleep? We need to talk this over, otherwise WE will become Zhou Li's alone.]

Strawberry glanced at the message, didn't reply, and simply turned off her phone.

Brotherly affection may certainly be important.

But filial piety comes first!
