Yuan Ze was an old pro, and he was very sharp. Wei Xiao had clearly shown himself heading down on the minimap, but Yuan Ze didn’t relax his vigilance at all. He was very on point with his positioning and skillfully adjusted his lane soldiers in order to prevent Wei Xiao from being able to attack and stab him.
Wei Xiao tsked. “Really annoying!”
Lu Feng: “Attack.”
His voice had just fallen when the shadow thief charged up with a shadow attack, rushing straight at the blood warrior.
The blood warrior immediately called out his phantoms, sending them right into Wei Xiao’s direction.
This level of alertness was just like he’d opened up a perspective hack!
But Wei Xiao didn’t panic. After avoiding the phantom, he aimed and stabbed his gun at Yuan Ze.
Yuan Ze made use of a lane soldier to adjust his positioning, stabbing at Lu Feng after avoiding the attack.
Lu Feng didn’t shrink away. He took the damage in order to move behind the blood warrior, stabbing with his shadow blade and causing a splash of blood to fly out.
Both of them were hit into a half health state at the same time. Wei Xiao leapt up with his gun, landing accurately on Yuan Ze when he fell. At the moment when he bounced up, the shadow thief’s flying blade stacked up with his shadow attack and the extra bonus from an attack launched from behind, ensuring that Yuan Ze couldn’t move.
System Announcement––
First Blood.
LU killed Marshal.
Wei Xiao, who’d gotten an easy assist, was delighted. “Captain, you’re amazing!”
Lu Feng: “……”
Wei Xiao: “I’m amazing too!”
Even with the sound insulation, Yuan Ze was able to hear the proud tone in this crazy bragging!
Gary: “Captain, don’t panic. I’m coming.”
Yuan Ze’s tone wasn’t good, “Like hell you’re coming.”
At the bottom lane, Old G cooperated with his own marksman to take down a double kill, so L&P hadn’t made a loss in this wave.
However, killing others wasn’t what Old G wanted. He wanted to mess with the little lunatic and great demon king.
When it came to a top-jungler battle, who had the strongest linkage? Old G didn’t plan on giving up this title.
By the time the blood warrior reached level six, the shadow thief started losing its advantage.
FTW decisively switched lanes. Close, who’d just arrived at the bottom lane, caught a flaw in bottom lane AA’s defenses, and charged right into his face with nine light arcs. Support player MO gave everything he had, shields, healing, and buffs, but was still unable to save the pitiful AA.
The situation changed again, with the balance tilting towards FTW.
AA: “Captain!”
Yuan Ze: “Switch.”
Since FTW switched lanes, they would, too.
The shadow thief shouldn’t even think of getting rid of the blood warrior.
Wei Xiao disdained Yuan Ze. “Are you a sticky toffee candy? Sticking to my captain like this.” After saying so, he made a sudden attack on the bottom lane and continued to mess with Yuan Ze.
The two sides fought back and forth during the game, but neither side obtained any absolute advantages.

But one thing was certain.
Yan Jiang attached great importance to Wei Xiao. Although Chen Feng didn’t know what exactly it was he liked about Wei Xiao––mainly because this brat had too many unique points, and it was difficult to ascertain.
Chen Feng looked back at Wei Xiao, his heart warming.
This stinky brat was really likable, and he attracted all sorts of people.
He was more than half responsible for this roomful of people getting together.
In fact, Chen Feng understood that this so-called living at FTW held some attraction, but it wasn’t such a deep obsession.
They had agreed to this entertainment game more for the sake of the past FTW, and also for the present Close.
The unspeakable past from three years ago.
This past from three years ago that still was hard to look back on.
Regardless of whether it was guilt or regret, they were all unable to say it.
Young pride that stabbed and hurt the people closest to them.
Regret that couldn’t be fixed, and the past that couldn’t be made up for.
They could only tell each other about it through this most familiar battle.
Growth, experience.
Hoping everyone could walk on in glory and face the darkness.
In the first game, FTW won by a narrow margin.
Wei Xiao took off his headphones and wasn’t polite about his disdain. “Old G, can you do it or not?”
Old G: “…………” I’m going to go f*ck your mother’s name upside down!
Wei Xiao: “Weren’t you going to pick on the shadow thief? Come on, do it.”
Yuan Ze: “……………………”
Someone picked up the thread of the conversation, “Come on.”
Wei Xiao turned his head. The one who’d spoken was Yan Jiang.
Yan Jiang got up and walked over to Yuan Ze’s side. “We’ll release the shadow thief for you.” He said this to FTW.
The next game was FTW against Y1. L&P quickly made way, and even gloated a little. Gary said, “Little Lunatic Q, you’ll have to seek your own fortune!”
Wei Xiao would never back down or lose. “Don’t worry, I’m always lucky!”
It hadn’t been easy for Gary to finally understand an idiom, but he was unable to quip back after that retort. He turned back to look at Yuan Ze. Yuan Ze had gone over to where Yan Jiang had been seated before. He said evenly, “Come on, let me see how miserable your luck is.”
Wei Xiao wasn’t as polite to him as he was to Yan Jiang. He turned back warily, “Don’t try to steal my techniques.”
Yuan Ze: “……”
Wei Xiao pointed to himself and Lu Feng, then pointed to the two of them. “Top-jungler, e-sports competitors, got it?”
Yuan Ze: “…………” I got your daddy!
Although Wei Xiao disdained him, he didn’t really drive him away.
Yuan Ze had thick skin. What was one or two sentences? He sat and settled himself in very firmly, insisting on seeing all the ways that Wei Xiao would die, die, and die.
Y1 really did release the shadow thief. Chen Feng hesitated briefly.
Wei Xiao: “Take it! I’ll use it!”
Chen Feng: “……”
Wei Xiao: “Captain Yan, whatever tricks you have, just use them all on me. I’m not scared!”
Not only was he not scared, he was completely excited, okay!
Yuan Ze was too lazy to disparage him.
Chen Feng’s concerns were more practical.
Yan Jiang certainly wouldn’t just talk big. For him to release the shadow thief meant that he had ways to target it.
What did the shadow thief mean for FTW?
It was a killer ace, it was confidence, and it was a magic treasure that ensured wins.
This kind of thing was rather metaphysical.
When the belief wasn’t broken, the whole team’s morale would increase greatly, and looking at the shadow thief was like seeing the dawn of victory. This invisible bonus for the whole team could not be underestimated.
Once this belief was broken, there would be no more ‘special effect’.
Chen Feng didn’t want it to break in such an insignificant training match.
But this opportunity was placed right in front of them. If they didn’t give it a try not and waited until the official competition, they wouldn’t even have an opportunity to cry over their regrets…
Alright, then. He didn’t have to think so much about it. Wei Xiao was in the first position and snatched it up in a way that could only be described as quickly and cleanly.
Chen Feng sighed and tried to gain other opportunities for the team through BP. He only hoped that they wouldn’t lose too miserably.
Wei Xiao obviously planned to use the shadow thief himself. Lu Feng didn’t say much and took the divine warrior.
The divine warrior was a support type top-lane. It was clear that he planned to protect the shadow thief.
Was Wei Xiao not afraid at all?
He really was a little scared.
But his fear was different from other people’s.
Chen Feng was afraid that FTW’s shadow thief would collapse, and he was afraid that Wei Xiao would go into seclusion. He was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to achieve results with the shadow thief throughout the whole official competition.
Wei Xiao was only afraid of Lu Feng.
It was fine if he lost, and it was okay if he fell for various tricks. It was alright if he was beaten into collapse.
But it couldn’t be Lu Feng.
It couldn’t be Close’s shadow thief who was targeted into collapse by Yan Jiang.
So, he insta-locked the shadow thief.
As long as it was himself, then he wasn’t scared of any heaven or earth!
Yan Jiang took the elemental shaman, Y1’s jungler Hai used the berserker thief, and the top-laner took the blood warrior.
It was clearly a jungler core line-up and was very impolite about targeting the shadow thief.
What made it more interesting was that when L&P was targeting FTW, Yan Jiang had suggested that FTW use the elemental shaman. In this game, Y1 was targeting FTW and still using the elemental shaman.
The elemental shaman could support the shadow thief until it rose to the heavens, and it could also drag the shadow thief down from the sky until it had to be dug up from under the ground.
The fight at the old FTW base was burning hot with passion, but they didn’t know that the internet was trembling and quaking.
The keywords that were trending on hot search were so exciting that it made all the glory fans click on it––the Team of Gods were gathering at FTW!
At first, everyone thought that it was click bait. But their chins all dropped when they went in!
There was a candid photo that was like the real hammer of truth.
There were four vans in FTW’s parking lot. They all had official game decals, and they were each printed with the team logos.
Y1, EVE, L&P, Pro.
Why had last year’s global top four gathered at FTW?
Was it a feud or was it a scene dripping with dog blood?
Was it real people PK or was it a bloody battle between teams?
The Team of Gods, who would die before communicating with each other, had actually gotten together under the same roof?
Without mentioning anything else, the FTW fans were all crying one after the other.
The trending topics exploded. Their misery during those years was matched with their feelings of distress right now.
The Team of Gods fans who had laid down their banners and ceased their activity all revealed themselves and started talking about the old days.
What exactly were they doing?
Exactly what the hell were they doing!
The entire network was curious and really wished they could sneak over to find out.
The reason why the whereabouts of the Team of Gods had been exposed wasn’t due to FTW’s internal staff, but because of the paparazzi who followed the teams closely.
Someone had always been watching the teams ever since EVE and Y1 had settled in.
At the end of the day, they were global star players, and anything they could catch on camera would bring in traffic. Paying attention to them was too worthwhile.
Who could’ve known that they would be able to get such breaking news when their original intention had been to sneak in some private photos of God Xie?!
For a while, even the big capital daddies were startled.
What was going on?
Training match?
Would it be convenient for them to stream it?
There were sky high sponsorship fees at stake here!
The author has something to say:
