The members of the Island Whale team looked at Lu Zhiting with indifference. Every time there was a match, Lu Zhiting would come and cause trouble.
Lu Zhiting is the captain of the Shark Lion team. Logically speaking, a team that frequently wins championships should not need to provoke teams vying for third place. However, Lu Zhiting and Qi Huai have a personal grudge.
Both of them were senior students in the Physics Department of Peking University and classmates. Lu Zhiting had disliked Qi Huai since he first entered university.
Qi Huai's entrance exam score was higher than his, his daily grades were higher, his final exam score was higher, and he joined the physics lab earlier than him. Although Qi Huai withdrew not long after, Lu Zhiting still had a thorn in his side.
Most importantly, Qi Huai didn't fawn over him like everyone else did; instead, he completely ignored him.
When Lu Zhiting applied for the school scholarship during his freshman year, sensible students would withdraw automatically knowing he wanted it, but Qi Huai was different.
Qi Huai completely ignored him, and in the end, Lu Zhiting lost to Qi Huai by 0.2 points in the overall score. Qi Huai won the scholarship that year.
From then on, Lu Zhiting held a grudge against him.
Lu Zhiting is from one of the four major families in the capital. He has been competitive since childhood. He is not short of money. This scholarship is not even enough for him to have a meal, but he still wants it. This scholarship represents recognition of his ability.
That year, he declared that the scholarship would definitely be his, but when the results were announced, he found out that the recipient was Qi Huai.
Lu Zhiting had checked Qi Huai's information. How dare a child from an ordinary family disrespect him like that? From that moment on, Lu Zhiting kept a close eye on Qi Huai.
Qi Huai took the physics lab exam, and so did Lu Zhiting, but he wasn't as smart as Qi Huai. Qi Huai passed on his first try, while Lu Zhiting had to take it twice before getting in.
When Lu Zhiting entered the lab, ready to show off to Qi Huai, Qi Huai logged off shortly after and went to play games.
Lu Zhiting was furious. He looked up the game Qi Huai played, which was a popular online game that he also played. He learned that Qi Huai had joined a club and planned to go professional, so he asked the Lu family to invest in the club as well.
The Shark Lion team, the team club that Lu Zhiting is currently in, is invested in by the Lu family. Lu Zhiting naturally squeezed out the original main players and became the new captain of the Shark Lion team.
He used his wealth to book the best venues, buy the best equipment, and hire the best coaches to make up for his lack of ability.
Lu Zhiting's teammates were very accommodating to him. Although Lu Zhiting's abilities were average, the Lu family paid a lot of money, and the members were happy to take him under their wing. They even made him the team leader.
With the help of three strong teammates, Lu Zhiting won many championships.
He wanted to brag to Qi Huai, only to find out that the club Qi Huai had joined was going out of business, and the owner had sold off the account he had worked so hard to play for half a year.
Qi Huai and his teammates directly took down the club, and the group started practicing accounts again.
Lu Zhiting couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy. He found Qi Huai and asked him if he wanted to join the Shark Lion Club, but Qi Huai refused.
Lu Zhiting lost his temper and directly scolded him for being ungrateful, wasting his talent, and starting over in a lousy club, calling him stupid.
Qi Huai did not refute, turned around and left, completely ignoring Lu Zhiting's high-salary offer.
Lu Zhiting was furious. He watched as Qi Huai slowly built up his points from scratch. When the two met again on the field, Lu Zhiting never gave Qi Huai a kind look.
Before every match, he would come over and say a few sarcastic remarks, as if it were some kind of essential pre-match warm-up activity.
Qi Huai didn't understand why Lu Zhiting kept staring at him. In his eyes, Lu Zhiting was like a crying child trying to get an adult's attention. Qi Huai had no interest in coaxing children, and even less interest in Lu Zhiting.
Guan Mo pushed past Lu Zhiting, and the group returned to their lounge.
"Who is that person?" Shi Qian asked.
"The captain of the number one ranked Shark Lion team has impressive financial resources," Guan Mo replied.
"However, it seems like he has some kind of grudge against Qi Huai. He's always picking on Qi Huai. I was starting to think that Lu Zhiting had a crush on our Qi Huai," Xie Zining added.
"Don't talk nonsense. I have nothing to do with him, and there's nothing for us to argue about in private," Qi Huai explained.
Guan Yi, along with Zhong Ran and Lu Yibai, squeezed through the frenzied fans and finally reached their seats in the audience.
Guan Mo truly lived up to his reputation as a good cousin, reserving a family seat in the first row for him. Along the way, they garnered countless envious glances from fans.
After everyone sat down, Zhong Ran said, "It's so lively! I didn't expect so many people."
Zhong Ran doesn't play games, so he doesn't quite understand why a game would have so many fans who want to watch the game live. Isn't watching it live on a big screen? What's the difference between watching it live and watching it at home?
However, once I arrived, I realized that things were a bit different. The atmosphere at the competition was much more intense than what the live chat could match.
"Brother Yi, which team is your cousin on?"
"It seems to be called an island whale."
Looking back, Lu Yibai could still see some support signs for the Island Whale team. "They seem to be quite popular."
The host quickly took the stage and began introducing the basic information of each team. Before long, all the team members were ready, wearing helmets, and ready to enter the game.
Guan Yi looked around the field and searched for a while before finding his cousin Guan Mo. After all, the helmet covered him completely, so he could only identify him by his team uniform and build.
But the person next to Guan Mo seems a bit familiar?
The game started quickly, and through the introduction on the big screen, everyone discovered that the main team members of the Island Whale team had changed.
People in the audience started discussing it.
"Isn't the weight listed?"
"It seems he injured his hand, so they found someone to replace him."
"Ah! Who can replace him? Weight is a top-ten golden shooter on the leaderboard!"
"Besides, isn't it said that the Island Whales club is poor and can't afford substitutes?"
"I don't know, but it seems like Weight really didn't come on. Look at the big screen, it looks like someone's father or something came, it wasn't Weight's name."
"Everyone looked and saw that the Island Whale Club's marksman had changed from weight to [I am your dad]."
"……"
"Who is this? The name is so arrogant, I don't even dare to call him that."
"I don't know. It looks so-so. It's a B-level account, not even an A. These days, which teams have main members below A level? Is the Island Whale team just throwing in the towel and randomly picking someone to play in the competition?"
"I searched the entire server and found no information about this dad. He has no reputation at all. I looked at his game history and he has never even played in a competition."
"It's over, it's over, the Island Whales are really finished now..."
"I can't bear to watch anymore. If I die as soon as I go in, I might as well switch to the Pink Shark Lion Team."
...
The crowd was buzzing with discussion. Xu Wei was also watching the game in the backstage lounge. Because Shi Qian was there, he was unusually not nervous at all.
