Chapter 95
【What the hell, this is a great pattern.】
[That’s very well said, ah ah ah,]
[Really? So many people on the Internet scolded Su Ge before, and said that Su Ge was guilty of not speaking out. In fact, my wife is a kind person. ]
【Apologize to Brother Su,
[Fake dog racing bs!!! My brother Su was able to hold back and not hit you in the end because of his kindness, it does not mean that he tolerates fake racing!! ]
[Wait, is this really something my wife would say? I’ve been his fan for three years, and I know his cultural accomplishments all too well (.)
[Although, this was also my first reaction, hahaha. ]
"Done."
Su Zheye lazily lay in Gu Yuan's arms: "I have completed Chief Gu's order. Please give me instructions for the next step."
He still didn't read the comments online, but Gu Yuan was reading them.
Upon hearing this, the latter freed one hand to hug his little fox and stroked the back of the boy's neck: "Yeah, baby."
Su Zheye squinted his eyes comfortably like a cat, his voice unclear: "Now I am getting more and more proficient at calling out. What if I call out wrongly in front of outsiders in the future?"
"Then it's wrong."
Gu Yuan put away his phone and focused on stroking the boy's hair: "My grandfather has been discharged from the hospital. After the Olympics, I will go to him to discuss this topic in person. After the discussion, we will make it public."
Su Zheye knew that Gu Yuan’s grandfather had been discharged from the hospital, and he accompanied Gu Yuan to pick up his grandfather this morning.
but……
Su Zheye leaned into Gu Yuan's arms and said, "Gu Yuan, you really want to make it public."
"Um."
Gu Yuan said: "I've always wanted to."
"All right."
Su Zheye said: "My boyfriend wants to make it public, so I can only follow his lead."
He suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Gu Yuan: "Then how do you want to make it public?"
Gu Yuan seemed to have thought it through long ago, and said without hesitation: "I will call you my wife too."
Su Zheye was stunned for a second: "What?"
"Fans can call you wife, so I want to call you wife too."
It was Gu Yuan's usual calm tone, but when these words came out of his mouth, there was inexplicably a hint of grievance and vying for favor.
Su Zheye smiled and turned over to hug Gu Yuan's neck: "Okay, husband."
"Get some sleep."
Gu Yuan kissed Su Zheye on the forehead: "There are important things to do in the afternoon."
Su Zheye responded and got into the quilt.
After lunch break, the two came to the training room.
555 and Gao were sitting in front of the computer. When they heard the door open, they looked up and said, "Brother Su!"
"Look, look, so many people are apologizing to you."
555 thought: "If I knew my teammate was match-fixing, I would have beaten him to death, but Brother Su didn't do anything. What a hero."
Gao patted his head and said, "Can you please say something nice? Many people are praising Brother Su's words for being generous and well-structured."
Su Zheye smiled: "It has to be Chief Gu. It's obvious that this is not something I can say."
"really."
555 whispered, "I think so too."
Lu Yang leaned back in his chair, scratching his hair and muttering, "Why isn't it four o'clock in the afternoon yet? I'm so anxious."
"Grass."
Li Nanxuan interrupted: "I almost forgot about this matter, and you reminded me again."
"that is."
Gao looked over and said, "I forgot about it too. Why are you reminding me now?"
"Nervous?"
Gu Yuan turned his head and asked Su Zheye.
Su Zheye nodded: "To be honest, a little bit."
At 16:00 Beijing time, the IOC will announce the group results of the "Dawn and Dusk" event of this Olympic Games.
Unlike the DTW World Championship, where the number one seeds from each region avoid each other, the group stage of this Olympics is drawn completely randomly, which means that the Chinese team has a one-in-four chance of meeting the Korean team in the group stage.
But the silver lining in this unfortunate situation is that the Olympic format is that there are four groups with eight teams in each group and the top two teams will advance - six teams in each group will play a BO1 match within the group, and two teams will advance based on points and win-loss record, so even if China and South Korea meet in advance, they will have the opportunity to reach the finals at the same time.
After that is the quarterfinals, which is a BO3, or best-of-three format, while the semifinals and finals are both BO5 elimination matches.
Having said that, no one wants to meet the South Korean team in the group stage, especially China and South Korea, which have a long-standing grudge against each other. Not only will it lower morale, but it will also most likely give fans the opportunity to criticize them.
Gao and 555 were so anxious that they didn't play any ranked games. Instead, they were browsing various super chats and forums, and distracting themselves by watching fans praising Su Zheye.
As 16:00 approached, 555 and Gao were already waiting on the official website interface, waiting to refresh it as soon as possible after the time came.
"Captain Su, are you guys done fighting?"
Lu Yang ran behind them and said, "You guys are so bold. You actually opened a game."
Gu Yuan was wearing headphones and beating the dragon, not saying anything.
Su Zheye hummed: "Anxiety won't affect the result."
Lu Yang thought for a moment: "That being said, I'm afraid that if I think about this while fighting, my mentality will explode."
"One minute left!"
555 shouted: "Help, Jesus, Sakyamuni, Buddha of the West, please protect us from being grouped with DCK. Xinnan is willing to let Gao be single for ten years in exchange for us not meeting DCK."
"Fuck you!"
Gao patted him on the back and said, "You don't want to go to the finals and play against DCK, right?"
"Oh, yes."
555 came to his senses and immediately changed his words: "Xinnan is willing to let Gao be single for ten years in exchange for us not meeting DC in the group stage..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Nanxuan, who had been staring at the time, reached out from behind and clicked to refresh the interface.
555's voice stopped abruptly, and the four people present saw the five-star national flag at first sight.

555: "Send."
Gao: “Send.”
Lu Yang: “Send.”
Li Nanxuan: "Send."
Although Su Zheye was still playing games with Gu Yuan, he had already taken off his headphones. When he heard the noise, he immediately understood what was going on: "Did they run into each other?"
"Brother Su!"
Lu Yang rushed over and hugged his arm: "Not only are we grouped with the Korean team, but also the American team. Damn, we won't be eliminated in the group stage unexpectedly?!"
The United States belongs to the DCS region. Their strength is second only to China and South Korea, and sometimes they are on par with DPL in the world championships.
Several DTW big names also forwarded this group list almost immediately, and soon the comments below were overwhelming.
【go home! 】
【??? This is a fucking death group.】
【Group B directly staged the Olympic semi-finals in advance. 】
[Don't be so mean, CN may not make it to the semi-finals of the Olympics. ]
[Are you still studying your Olympic opponents? I, DPL, have already returned to prepare for the World Championship! ]
[Fuck, we played against the Korean team in the first game. That's like sending it straight to the enemy.]
"It's all your fault!"
555 shook Gao: "Who told you not to be sincere at all? Tell me, are you secretly in a relationship?"
"I'm talking about your mother...Okay, it's my fault."
Lin Minchuan and Yan Shusheng pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing the scene in the training room, they realized that everyone knew it.
"We played against DCK in the first game, and it was decided in one round."
Yan Shu said: "The pressure will be great, you all understand, but don't be affected by public opinion, we just need to exert our strongest strength."
"well."
Lu Yang was still a little depressed: "The only one who can really be unaffected by public opinion is Brother Su. Look, he is still happily eating the blue buff."
Su Zheye laughed: "Are you starting to tease me?"
Lu Yang still held his arm and refused to let go: "What should we do? We haven't even had a training match with South Korea, and we got beaten up right away."
“Well, that’s the biggest problem.”
Lin Minchuan said: "DTW officially canceled the summer season. Another reason is to provide a completely fair competition environment. If there is a summer season, each major region can formulate corresponding tactics by watching the opponent's games. But now there are no competitions for nearly two months. We have no idea about the opponent's new playing style and tactics."
He turned to Su Zheye and Gu Yuan: "How are you doing in the Korean server recently?"
Su Zheye destroyed the opponent's crystal, and then raised his head: "I have encountered their national team's mid and support three times, but... after all, it is a ranking game, and it is still mainly based on personal awareness and operation. Basically, there is no coordination and tactics."
Gu Yuan: “Same.”
The other four were confused: "What are you talking about?"
Lin Minchuan sighed and explained, "Because we don't understand the tactics of the Korean side, I thought about letting you play on the Korean server not long ago to see if we can fight them in advance. But they are definitely playing high-end games. If we apply to the alliance for an account, we will be exposed. So I borrowed the account from two good friends who have been playing on the Korean server. They happened to be mid-jungle positions, so I gave it to Zhe Ye and Gu Yuan."
“But it doesn’t seem to be having any effect.”
The air fell into silence for a moment.
The nightmare of being suppressed by the Korean region in the world championship for four whole years, with no ability to fight back and no way to break the deadlock seems to be repeating itself. Moreover, the attention was previously limited to the e-sports circle, but now it has risen to the national level.
It's about the glory of the country.
It will add the value of a gold medal to the medal table.
Whether the day will dawn or continue to be trapped in endless darkness depends on this battle.
Everyone seemed to be aware of this fact, their expressions were somewhat solemn, and no one spoke.
"fine."
As the head coach, Yan Shusheng naturally had to act as a stabilizing force: "We will train well and adapt to the situation on the court."
"or……"
Su Zheye suddenly spoke up: "Actually, I have an idea."
Yan Shusheng looked at him and said, "You say."
"Gu Yuan and I have played so many games on the Korean server Canyon of Heroes, but we have only met their official team members a few times. It seems that there are very few ranked matches there, and they are always playing training games."
"After all, the national team is dismantled and reorganized, and lacks running-in. Playing ranked matches all the time is more about training individual skills, and there will be a lack of team cooperation. A higher intensity and density of 5v5 training matches will be more helpful."
Su Zheye continued, "We have been studying DCK, but talking on paper is not as good as actual combat. I think we can let some other players simulate DCK's habitual playing style, and we can keep playing training games with them to find ways to deal with and defeat them."
The air was silent for a few seconds.
555's eyes lit up: "That makes sense."
“Hey!”
Li Nanxuan suddenly straightened up: "When Memory and Flash first came to DCK, they brought us a lot of DCK tactics, and we took their double C as the core, and we were getting closer and closer to the DCK style. Coach Lin must know better!"
"yes."
Lin Minchuan said: "After playing in the spring season, I also learned a lot from our double C. I think Zhe Ye's method is not bad, but the only problem is feasibility. It is more troublesome and tiring. It requires learning on the spot and being on call at any time. They may not be able to learn the essence."
"All the players who were eliminated from the training camp have gone home for the holidays. Some of them don't even have high-configuration computers at home."
Yan Shusheng said, "It's hard to find someone for this kind of anonymous and hard work."
"No, Coach Yan, you are wrong this time."
Su Zheye raised the corners of his lips, and a smile appeared in his eyes: "How about making a bet? Everyone we ask will definitely be willing."
Gu Yuan said, "Coach Yan, if you were asked to be a sparring partner for the Chinese national team, would you refuse?"
Yan Shusheng was stunned for a moment, and said without hesitation: "No."
Gu Yuan also laughed: "That's right."
They did what they said. Yan Shusheng and Lin Minchuan immediately sent sparring requests to all other players of the top four teams in the spring season in the name of national team coaches, and explained in detail what needed to be done.
Without hesitation, the players who received the request almost immediately responded, "Agree!", "It's my honor.", "I will log in directly."
Command, Twelve and Real even started arguing over who would serve as the sparring jungler.
Concerned about the internet speed and equipment issues, most of the sparring players gave up their vacation and rushed back to Shanghai. They could not stay in the national team training center for a long time, so Gu Yuan explained the reason to the SEA boss and directly requisitioned the SEA base.
Yan Shusheng leads the national team, and Lin Minchuan leads the sparring team. The two sides are about to have their first training match after three days of individual training.
The other side is also old acquaintances, top laner Sui Ran, jungler Real, mid laner Pipi, AD is TRG's Maomao, and support is Jiang Yiwen.
"We are ready."
Yan Shusheng stood behind the five people with a notebook in his hand and said to Gu Yuan, "Ask Jiang Yiwen about the situation."
Gu Yuan then sent a private message to Jiang Yiwen.
The reply was almost immediate.
【CN sparring team is in place! 】**
Yan Shusheng said: "Pull someone."
This is probably the spirit of Chinese e-sports: unity, cohesion, dedication, hard work, and endurance...
For the purest dream in my heart, for the boiling and burning blood in my youth, and for the glory of a country.
A fierce battle is imminent, and we must respond to the call.

After nearly a month of devilish training, the 2024 Paris Olympics has finally begun.
