LOL: Reborn in Season 3, Taming Lee Sang-hyeok

Not long after, the car stopped at the entrance of the base.

The former mixed-use commercial and residential building has now been completely transformed into an e-sports themed building.

The exterior walls are entirely covered in white, with gold lines adorning the center, and the team's logo and name printed at the top.

The team's name is simple and straightforward—RISE.

This is the theme song of the S-series tournament that Li Zhixing won in his previous life.

Reaching the pinnacle of achievement.

After that, he never went down the mountain again.

The team logo is also quite straightforward: a circle with an upward arrow in the center.

This team name and logo will surely spread throughout the world in the future.

In addition, two other people were standing at the entrance of the base, also gazing up at the magnificent base with disbelief in their eyes.

Lee Sang-hyeok stared intently, realizing he had seen both of them before.

First, there was a thin man wearing glasses.

Lee Sang-hyeok recognized him at a glance; he was Looper.

Previously in SKT's training room, this was the person sitting next to him, but Lee Sang-hyeok left early and couldn't be his teammate on the same stage.

But Lee Sang-hyeok did not doubt the man's abilities.

Even though it's been almost a month since the S2 season ended, Lee Sang-hyeok is still upset about that last ranked game.

Besides Li Zhixing's Lee Sin, the player who impressed him the most in that game was Looper's Alchemist!

Besides that, there is one more.

"Mata hyung?" Kim Hyuk-kyu was stunned when he saw the figure in front of him. "You're here for the tryouts too?"

Mata scratched his head and laughed, "I'd like to give it a try..."

The original plan for the MVP Club was to create two teams.

As a result, since the two teams were unable to gather enough players and there was only one direct invite slot for OGN, the owner simply chose to merge the two teams and enter the OGN league through the direct invite slot.

As for the extra players, they will be gradually formed in the second team to participate in the upcoming secondary NLB league, and try to earn another OGN spot.

And Mata became that clown.

He poured his heart and soul into the MVP award. Before the second team even recruited a coach, he took on multiple roles, including recruiting players and organizing tryouts.

They even stayed up all night until 7 a.m. to arrest people at Mapo Middle School.

In the end, he couldn't even make it into the first team!

It's ridiculous that the MVP's coach thinks he's not as good as Heart from the Blue Team!

Fortunately, the contract hasn't been signed yet, so he might as well give it a try with Li Zhixing.

Although they are both in the second division, at least this team is strong.

The four teammates are ranked first to fourth in the Korean server.

What is a "galactic battleship"?

This is!

Compared to this, his seventh-place ranking in the Korean server last season seems rather pathetic...

And this new team's base looks really good... I didn't know making tutorials and commentary was so lucrative.

"Are you all here?" Li Zhixing said with a smile, "Let's go, I'll show you around first."

After unlocking the base with a fingerprint, the first thing you see is the base reception desk, which also features the team logo in the shape of an arrow, along with several sofas and chairs.

"This is the reception area. Once we win the OGN championship and gain more fame, we will start recruiting."

Li Zhixing introduced the situation with a smile, his calm words containing a thunderous undertone.

After passing through the reception room, you arrive at the training room, which can be described as a huge space, with fifteen computers placed in a space of about seventy or eighty square meters.

For internet-addicted teenagers who are obsessed with e-sports, this place is paradise, and the two younger brothers stared wide-eyed.

"The computers and network at the base are all top-of-the-line."

As Li Zhixing spoke, he continued forward: "Then go upstairs from here, there is a rest area upstairs."

"All three floors of this building belong to us. The top two floors are used for the players, coaches, and support staff. We currently have enough rooms. Once the contracts are signed, you can each choose a room."

Mata followed behind, her small eyes wide open, like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden.

The windows are spacious and bright, and the decoration is simple yet sophisticated. Even with the most critical eye, there is nothing to criticize.

Mata is quite knowledgeable, having visited many top clubs, but he has never seen one with such a grand scale!

It's not that the big clubs can't afford to spend the money, but rather that League of Legends esports is still in its infancy, and nobody knows what the future holds for the project, so of course they don't dare to make a big bet.

Renting such an expensive location and spending so much money on renovations must have cost well over 100 million Korean won.

Aren't you afraid of losing money?

But to be fair, if things really develop in the best possible direction, the OGN league becomes incredibly popular, and they manage to win the championship, then this magnificent base will become the best advertisement.

Li Zhixing continued, "As long as there are no problems with today's training match, I will submit this roster to the NLB officials. Only then will our club be officially established."

"You can tell from the size of this base that I'm not short of money, and I'm never stingy. So, everyone, do your best in today's training match. I not only want you to win, but I want you to win beautifully."

Mata thought for a moment and then asked, "Who are our opponents in today's practice match?"

Li Zhixing chuckled and said, "SKT's first team."

"SKT? Team 1?" Mata scratched his head, unsure of what to say.

Kim Hyuk-kyu glanced sideways and asked, "Are they good?"

"Absolutely amazing!" Mata said firmly.

He used to frequently practice with SKT's first team.

But in professional competitions, you can't just find five high-ranking players to mess around and destroy everything.

Teamwork, coordination, and tactics are the more crucial aspects of professional matches.

Even though their MVP second team has a higher average ranking score, their win rate is no more than 30% once the match starts.

Moreover, the OGN Winter Tournament is currently in full swing, and SKT's first team is leading the pack.

Today, these five talented individuals are forming a team for the first time, yet they want to achieve a great victory against this top OGN team?

This is not realistic.

But some people think differently.

Upon hearing this, Lee Sang-hyeok clenched his fist slightly.

Okay, let's go.

The group quickly returned to the training room and sat in a row in front of the five computers by the window.

The computer has long been shaped for esports, not only pre-installed with League of Legends, but also equipped with the best available mouse and keyboard.

However, due to the limitations of the times, lightweight wireless mice had not yet been invented, and the current mice were still bulky models with wires, which Li Zhixing was very dissatisfied with.

The timing was perfect. Everyone logged into their respective match accounts and could see that all the SKT members had arrived and were ready for battle.

SKT S Marin

SKT S Horo

SKT S Easyhoon

SKT S Bang

SKT S Wolf

The neat and orderly SKT first team name is the most resounding name in the current professional scene.

Soon, Li Zhixing's group also joined in, stopping at their respective positions.

Looper

Neo

Faker

Deft

Kill

Li Zhixing compared the two lineups, his gaze deep.

He couldn't guarantee how far this lineup could go.

After all, the world is developing in a strange direction. The Chinese teams are unusually strong, having won all the world championships this year. They will definitely be formidable opponents when they reach the world championships.

However, he had a general understanding of the South Koreans' capabilities.

With him backing them up, dominating the Korean league won't be a problem.

Let's start by targeting the so-called elite families.
