The matter is actually very simple. Tian Xuanzi is an ancient god in the e-sports circle, but he is also Bai Tong's childhood sweetheart, her neighbor, and her boyfriend. Even when she started playing games, it was because of him that she got into the game.
The meaning of "childhood sweethearts" is that two people are innocent and close since childhood, and their love grows deep without them even realizing it.
When he came to his senses, it was already after Bai Tong finished her college entrance exam. He took her to an amusement park, where she screamed in the haunted house and he picked her up and carried her out.
Then, his childhood friends noticed and, laughing and whispering, asked, "So you two are really together?"
Shy, laughing, acquiescing, and then becoming more intimate.
In fact, Tian Xuanzi is not much older than Bai Tong, but he entered the industry earlier, won championships earlier, and retired earlier.
After he started the club, he was always busy with many things. Bai Tong was dissatisfied with the short time she spent with her boyfriend. One day, when they were cuddling in bed and sleeping in, she suddenly had a whimsical idea.
"You mentioned before that your club's mid laner is retiring and you can't find a suitable replacement. What do you think about me joining your club as the mid laner?"
After pondering for a long time, Tian Xuanzi slowly said that it was not impossible, but there was still a gap between a streetball king and a professional player.
He set high standards for Bai Tong, requiring her to reach a certain score in the peak competition within a certain timeframe. After seriously assessing Bai Tong's skills, he promised her that she could give it a try.
And that's how everything we have today came about.
The Sanxiu City Club was determined to make a big splash.
Bai Tong's features are so delicate and beautiful that it's hard to tell if she's male or female. She simply dresses in a neutral style, and as long as she doesn't speak, she can fool anyone.
Yue Yuan and the others thought that they had been shocked by Bai Tong's true gender, so they had to shock others as well to make their investment worthwhile.
They rubbed their hands together, trying to ingratiate themselves with Bai Tong, asking if she could help them put on a show and fool the other teams.
Bai Tong didn't care, but she was also very interested in the perverse game they proposed, and agreed with great enthusiasm.
When the alliance came to collect the statistics, they didn't think to ask about her gender. It wasn't until they found out what was written on her ID card that their eyelids started twitching. They urgently contacted Tian Xuanzi to inquire, but he just laughed wildly.
"When I was competing, everyone said that Chinese people couldn't win championships, but I didn't believe it. Sure enough, in my first year, I won the first world championship in esports history for a Chinese person. Now, people say that girls can't play professionally, but I still don't believe it. What do you think will happen?"
The league staff could only manage a wry smile.
However, there is no rule prohibiting female players from pursuing a career. Moreover, Tian Xuanzi not only runs a club but is also a shareholder of the super internet conglomerate behind the game company. He is the boss of their boss. If he takes a hard line, what can the alliance do?
In the end, they had no choice but to agree to his request, and even promised that they would never use the fact that "Bai Tong is a girl" for publicity.
At the same time, when introducing players before the competition, their gender is never mentioned. Therefore, Bai Tong's identity was not exposed until the Spring Season.
"Wow, you guys from the Loose Cultivator City are really amazing! Your first battle was incredible. Your new mid laner killed Zhang Luhan 18 times! That's incredible!"
After their first victory, the club happily returned to their villa, and Nie Xuanyan started a live stream playing ranked matches with a big laugh.
When he was forming a team, he happened to run into the Canglang faction from the neighboring club. After they turned on voice chat, they were amazed.
"Bai Tong was really good during the peak competition. Our coach even contacted him, but Bai Tong ignored him completely. I never expected that he would be poached by your Loose Cultivator City."
"Bai Tong is so beautiful! My female fans are shouting that they want to switch allegiances. Tell me, how is your Loose Cultivator City going to compensate us?"
