LOL: Do I have to be a spinning top too?

Li Hu was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised.

Two consecutive best-of-three matches and two post-match interviews—this kind of treatment is something that ordinary rookies can't get.

Guo Hao saw through his confusion and explained softly:

"That's normal."

"You won all three games and received MVP awards. Your skills, awareness, and teamwork were all top-notch, which won over all the commentators, viewers, and secondary streamers."

"Given the current high level of discussion and controversy, the league needs you to keep the game's popularity going..."

"Maintaining the attention on the Demacia Cup is a win-win situation."

Li Hu instantly understood.

League of Legends is indeed the world's number one esports event...

However, the PC version has indeed lost a significant number of daily active players.

If Tencent Esports wants to maintain the popularity of this event, it needs to generate buzz and controversy.

Therefore, the LPL league officials do not mind using some conflicts between players to create these points of controversy.

And he just happens to be the most suitable candidate.

It possesses overwhelming strength, a brilliant storyline of a newcomer emerging out of nowhere, and minor controversies on the field that generate buzz, perfectly meeting all the official requirements.

He stood up and put his phone back in his pocket.

"Okay, I'll go wait in the waiting area now."

Li Hu stood up, straightened his team uniform, and walked out of the lounge to the waiting area to wait for the interview.

In the contestants' tunnel, he leaned against the wall, watching the situation on stage through the curtain.

On the big screen, the MVP selection screen for the third game had just lit up.

His official portrait slowly appeared, next to which was Camille's original artwork, and data scrolled on the screen.

KDA: 7/0/9

Team damage percentage: 30.1%

Group tour participation rate: 87.5%

Counter-economic difference: +5620

MVP count: 5

From the commentary booth, Ji De's voice came through the speakers, filled with undisguised excitement.

"Five MVPs!"

"A newcomer played six games on the Demacia Cup stage and won MVP in five of them!"

"This is not only a demonstration of individual ability, but also the highest declaration for the entire new generation of LPL players!"

A slender, gentle-looking female host, dressed in a modern Chinese-style light blue floral cheongsam, slowly walked onto the stage.

Li Hu recognized who it was at a glance...

hope Ran is one of the most professional hosts in the LPL, with solid professional skills and fluency in multiple languages.

"Let's welcome TES's top laner, Glory!"

Li Hu took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage.

The spotlight shone on him, and enthusiastic cheers erupted from the audience.

The interview has officially begun.

"Welcome Glory, the top laner for TES, to the post-match interview."

First of all, congratulations on helping your team defeat RNG 3-0 and advance to the Demacia Cup finals!

"I'd like to ask, in this game, you picked Camille and chose to forgo your laning advantage to actively roam and sacrifice your farm to revitalize the entire team. What was your strategy at that time?"

Facing the camera, Li Hu spoke calmly and gave formulaic responses:

"First of all, I would like to thank the coaching staff for their tactical arrangements and for trusting my hero pool and judgment in the game."

"I also want to thank my four teammates for their cooperation and sacrifices. This is a victory for the team."

"In this game, RNG's bot lane Xayah and Rakan were strong in the late game, the jungler focused on the bottom half of the map, and Sion was more suited to playing defensively and laning, making it difficult for him to get solo kills."

"So I chose to give up single-lane dominance and prioritize roaming to help the bottom lane break the deadlock, revitalize the team's rhythm, and speed up the game to win."

The answer was prudent and appropriate, watertight, and did not reveal any personal habits or exclusive playing styles.

hope Ran smiled and changed the subject.

"You've made it to the finals. Tomorrow will be the semifinals between EDG and TT."

Which team do you think will make it to the finals and join your team?

Li Hu knew perfectly well that the answer was TT would win 3-1 against EDG.

In the previous life, the 2022 Demacia Cup final was TT vs. BLG.

But one shouldn't make definitive statements on the field, so he raised the microphone and spoke calmly.

Both teams are very strong.

"But no matter who makes it to the final, we are confident that we will win and lift the Demacia Cup trophy."

A cheer erupted from the audience.

TES fans held up their support signs, and cheers and screams echoed throughout the venue once again!

hope Ran's eyes revealed a hint of appreciation. After the cheers subsided slightly, she asked the last question.

"This Demacia Cup is your professional debut stage."

"In six games, you won MVP five times, with a 100% win rate."

What are your thoughts on this?

The microphone was handed to him, and the entire audience and viewers across the internet held their breath, everyone waiting for the answer from this talented newcomer.

Li Hu held the microphone and remained silent for two seconds.

In those two seconds, he thought about a lot of things.

I think of myself eating instant noodles in an internet cafe, and I think of my muddled past life.

I remember the scene where the referee meticulously examined Wei's computer after he reported him for cheating.

Think of those unfamiliar IDs who sent him private messages on Weibo, cursing him for being arrogant, disrespectful to his seniors, and predicting that he would eventually be taught a lesson by reality.

He raised the microphone, and his voice resounded throughout the entire venue.

"I've loved this game since I was very young."

"I love every inch of Summoner's Rift, I love the stories behind every champion, and I love the feeling of five people fighting side by side and giving their all for the same goal."

"So I am honored to stand here today and participate in professional League of Legends competitions."

"I respect every veteran player who has brought glory to the LPL."

"LPL's success today is thanks to the hard work and dedication of our predecessors, who fought their way through each match."

"IG in S8, FPX in S9, EDG in S11... these names will always be remembered."

"It was their youth and sweat that paved this road for us."

"but."

"Respect is mutual."

"Some senior colleagues rest on their laurels and act arrogantly towards newcomers because of their seniority."

"Even after being defeated by newcomers, instead of reflecting on their own problems, they use methods like reporting to question their opponents' strength."

"This is not how a senior should behave."

"The older generation of players supported the past of LPL, and we, the new generation of players, will do our best to support the future of LPL."

"In future matches, I will continue to give my all and respond to all doubts and controversies with every victory."

His resounding speech was powerful and insightful, each word piercing to the heart!

It seems to have a grand scale, and it evokes a sense of pride in the legacy of the competition region...

In reality, both overtly and covertly, every word is an accusation against Wei for his sore loser status, malicious reporting of cheating, and dirty tricks on the field!

The audience was silent for a full three seconds.

Then a deafening cheer erupted.

hope Ran held the microphone, her lips slightly parted, clearly not expecting this newcomer to dare to say such things during the interview.

But being a professional host, she quickly adjusted her expression and took over the conversation.

"Thanks to Glory for sharing, and best wishes to TES for great results in the finals!"

Li Hu bowed to the audience and then turned and walked off the stage.

In Huya's live stream, Zita held his head in his hands.

"Boom boom boom!"

"What a lucky guy! He's so outspoken!"

"My hair!"

Crystal slumped in his chair, his tone full of admiration.

"Yare, I'm truly impressed by Oozhi Yanghu."

"This is too much, I can't listen anymore. I'm going shopping with my sister now, bye-bye, brothers."

AJ shook his head frantically: "This kid's even more explosive than me! I'm truly impressed!"

The entire internet erupted in a frenzy of comments, with the barrage of messages crashing the live stream!

[Fine! Fine! So you're being sarcastic towards my Brother Wei, huh!]

Liquidation, liquidation, the great liquidation begins!

[A good balance! Some veterans in the LPL are only thinking about preserving their jobs and coasting along. They need fresh blood to really spur them on and improve the region's competitiveness!]

Competitive sports should prioritize ability over seniority. Sore losers resorting to underhanded tactics are only corrupting the atmosphere of the competition!

This is what the new generation should be like! Humble yet proud!

Those who contend leave their mark, those who establish their communities demonstrate their abilities.
