CS: Oh no, he's really become the GOAT!

Chapter 5 Holy Body: The Limits of Humanity

In the university cafeteria.

"What's going on in your dorm? How come four people are eating breakfast at four different tables?"

Mao Zhiqiang from the next dormitory asked, quite puzzled.

Yang Yu looked ahead and saw the other members of dormitory 302 sitting at three different tables in front of him, the atmosphere in the whole area was terribly oppressive.

The three people who were playing together so enthusiastically last night now act like complete strangers.

Yang Yu held it in for a long time, but finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

He explained to Mao Zhiqiang, "These three guys played a really exciting three-player match last night, and they just finished playing."

"It can't be that bad," Mao Zhiqiang said, puzzled.

Yang Yu added, "I went from C+ to D+ in one night."

Mao Zhiqiang looked at the seating arrangement of everyone in room 302 again and replied, "Then you guys in the dorm have pretty good relationships. Normally, you wouldn't be sitting this close together."

Mao Zhiqiang took a bite of his steamed bun: "So, what's your situation?"

"I'm too lazy to listen to them shift the blame, let's have a separate table," Yang Yu said.

"There's nothing wrong with your mindset."

After some discussion, Yang Yu finished her porridge and waited for the rest of her roommates to go back together.

They didn't have classes in the morning today, and Yang Yu was woken up by the trio who failed to rank up and had breakfast.

Back in the dorm, Yang Yu looked at the trio who weren't planning to sleep and tentatively asked, "Anyone want to rank up with me?"

Xu Kun sat up abruptly in bed, as if he wanted to get out of bed and turn on his computer immediately.

The next second he lay down with a pained expression: "I can't play anymore, bro. There's a pathetic thick barrier between us now!"

"We're now in a rank difference!!" Xu Kun said, seemingly relieved. He really wanted to travel back to last night, when he was still a B-rank player.

Yang Yu sat in her seat and laughed.

Since no one is available to duo queue with him, he plans to climb the ranks by himself later.

B1t's goal in the Headshot Talent Challenge is to reach the S rank, but he's currently only at the B rank and still quite a distance from S.

Still have to work hard!
"Check the ingredients!"

The system panel appeared in front of me the next moment.

[Host: Yang Yu]

【Age: 18】

Current Rank: Perfect B

[Firepower: 55]

[Marksmanship: 54]

[Sniper Shots: 68]

[Finisher Shot: 36]

[Consciousness: 67]

[Endgame: 60]

Map Comprehension: 45

【Mindset: 78】

[Item Used: 38]

[Reputation Score Rating: C]

[Advance Points: 117]

[Current Ability: 1. B1T Headshot Talent]

Yang Yu took a look and found that his marksmanship had improved dramatically compared to yesterday.

火力从44提升到了55、补枪从33提升到了36、残局也从56提升到了60。

This is actually quite normal. For Yang Yu, yesterday was the first day of serious and deliberate practice.

This is similar to fitness training; the progress in the early stages is definitely quite significant, and it is also the period with the highest positive feedback.

In the later stages, improvement becomes increasingly slower.

Of course, the most important factor is the impact of the B1T headshot talent; headshots are incredibly effective in CS:GO matches.

It takes five shots for the opponent to kill you, but you only need one shot. This greatly increases your margin for error, and your kill streak and win rate will improve significantly.

At this moment, Yang Yu also noticed the "Advance Points" item.

"You got this after yesterday's deathmatch challenge, right?"

Yang Yu remembered that he had been reminded of this after the deathmatch challenge ended, but his attention was drawn to the subsequent 'small test'.

Now that I think about it, I finally have time to check what the purpose of these advance payment points is.

[Advance Points: Can be used to purchase random items in the Points Shop. Items in the Points Shop will be refreshed daily...]

The system quickly provided an explanation.

Yang Yu curiously opened the points mall.

Soon I saw the items in today's points mall.

[ApEX Flying Second Floor Low-Level Fragment]

[Description: This fragment possesses the strategic changes that apEX employs when executing the second-floor flying tactic.]

PS: The whole world knows Apex Legends uses the "flying tower" mechanic.

[Price: 1000 points]

【…】

[Aleksib's Shrimp Catching Fragments]

[Description: This fragment contains some of Aleksib's research on G2.]

P.S.: The captain's illegal fishing has driven Boston lobsters to the brink of extinction.

[Price: 3000 points]

【…】

[Sacred Body: The Limits of Humanity]

[Description: It contains the pinnacle of human potential in device technology]

PS: The wailing of a certain seductive streamer is an infinite longing for the limits of human endurance.

[Price: 500000 points]

Yang Yu's gaze froze instantly. Good heavens.

If the first two items weren't very tempting for Yang Yu, then this one was a bit too much.

Nobody told him that these points could be directly exchanged for the full strength of a top professional player!

Although the human limit device has started to decline now, what level of player was he at his peak?

His name says it all.

The limits of human capability!

The strongest person!
Above him are only two monster-level players, S1mple and Zaiwu.

However, after looking at his remaining 117 points and the price of 50 points for [Holy Body: Human Limit], Yang Yu temporarily gave up his idea.

Knowing that the points mall could offer items of this caliber made him even more motivated to complete the tasks. He continued reading.

[Xantares Peek Low-level Fragment]

[Description: This fragment records the unique techniques contained within Xantares peek.]

[Price: 200 points]

What is Xantares peek?
Yang Yu hasn't been playing CS:GO for very long and only knows some of the more famous professional players.

He specifically took out his phone to check, and XANTARES, nicknamed the Turkish ruthless man, is a very famous ladder player, and XANTARES Peek is a big pull technique that he likes to use.

How terrifying is this technique?

The fact that it was named after a ruthless Turkish person speaks volumes.

From the perspective of the victim, the Turkish ruthless player's quick pull was like a pre-fire shot; he pulled out so quickly that he was barely visible before being headshot and instantly killed.

After reading from the victim's perspective, Yang Yu felt a chill run down her spine and her head was thumping.

I'm not going to say anything more, I want to learn!

Unfortunately, I only have 117 points now, which is not enough to reach 200.

However, the presence of XANTARES PEEK gave Yang Yu even more motivation.

He understood that if he completed the challenge tasks well today, he would probably be able to earn some points.

Just do it if you think of it.

Yang Yu was eager to get started and soon began headshot training for a deadly duel.

Compared to yesterday, he was much more at ease during training.

Whether it was B1T's natural talent for headshots or the effect of his deliberate training, headshots became increasingly easy for him.

And it's not just headshots; with the frequent use of sudden stops and positioning, these skills have also begun to improve.

He was obsessed with this feeling of progress.

He watched the number of headshots in the system notification bar in the upper right corner increase, and felt increasingly satisfied.

As my forearm started to ache, I gradually finished off 500 headshots.

As the "Trial and Tough" task progressed to "(2/30)," the system notification arrived as expected.

[Advance payment points +169...]

With the points he received in advance yesterday, he finally had the funds to buy [Xantares PEEK Low-Tier Fragments].

A thought.

"Purchase Xantares Peek low-tier fragments?"

"Yes!"

The next second, a system notification sounded.

"Please watch five PoV games on the Xantares ladder and carefully read and understand the peek method. Complete the prerequisites to receive unique skill understanding..."

Yang Yu: "..."

At this moment, only silence remains.

That's really low-level.

He had assumed the system would allow him to instantly transform into Xantares and understand the meaning of peek.

So you have to watch the first-person perspective recording yourself?

Then let me ask you! What's the point of having this system?
Yang Yu mentally complained.

However, he still went to Bilibili to search for Xantares' ranked match replays and began to study them carefully.

Although she was somewhat resistant at first, Yang Yu actually learned a lot from it.

Xantares played the map "Maze" in this ranked match, and after communicating, they chose to rush B in the second round.

Then Yang Yu saw the Turkish tough guy take the props to a special position and throw two flashbangs at the right spot when his teammates launched the attack.

Once the main force charged into point B, we saw Xantares' flashbangs providing support in the upper right corner.

Yang Yu understood that this flash of light was much better than the ones she had carelessly discarded.

I've learned something from this experience.

Xantares quickly won the pistol round thanks to his excellent flashbang and his teammates' breakthrough.

The match quickly transitioned into rifle rounds.

The two sides exchanged items in the middle lane at the start of the game, resulting in a 2-for-2 trade.

However, as the attacking side, the Ruthless team had few items left to use.

After discussing it, they ultimately chose an archway that sandwiched A.

A ruthless person would carry an AK and start aiming from A1 and keep aiming.

After confirming that A1 was cleared of nearby points, the expert roughly deduced that the other party was near the long box.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Yu witnessed a set of operations that were as beautiful as a painting.

The ruthless player switched weapons behind cover, got a feel for the controls, pre-aimed, maximized ground speed, adjusted the crosshair position while pulling out, and then abruptly stopped and fired the moment he saw the enemy.

The opponent behind the long box had absolutely no chance to react.

Yang Yu gasped.

He was the kind of player who had a lot of theoretical knowledge but zero practical experience.

From Xantares' perspective, this wasn't preemptive action, but rather a display of very solid fundamentals.

Pre-aiming, positioning, secondary adjustments, crouching during large pulls, understanding map perspective (objects appear larger when closer, smaller when farther away)...

What's most amazing is that he combined all these details together, and they don't feel out of place at all; on the contrary, they create a harmonious aesthetic.

The use of this large pull has a kind of beauty that is simple yet profound.

Upon seeing this, Yang Yu also had a sudden realization.

Since acquiring the B1T headshot talent yesterday, he has clearly felt that his basic skills are not solid enough, and he is unable to fully utilize the headshot talent.

Now I'm once again feeling the importance of having a strong foundation.

If he can master all these fundamentals to the highest level, then he can succeed even without learning from other players' playing styles and strategies.

If you're fast and accurate enough, you can become a very strong professional player.

Despite his mixed feelings, he continued to study Xantares' first-person perspective diligently.

After more than an hour, he finally finished watching the videos.

At this moment, the system notification sounded again.

[Distributing 'Xantares peek low-level fragment understanding'...]

There were no particular changes, but Yang Yu inexplicably recalled the reasons why Xantares used the big move in different positions during ranked matches.

Do you know why he was closer to cover in this wave, and why he swayed first in the other wave?

Knowing why you do something is far more important than rote memorization.

The basic skills are still not solid enough.

You really have to practice a lot to improve your skills.

Yang Yu took a deep breath and began his journey to climb the ranks once again.
