The 2016 LoL Spring Tournament Finals was the next day.
Tong Yao got up early in the morning. When she saw the two empty water bottles, she cursed the person who had stolen her water yesterday. She had put it on such a high shelf! That person must have eyes like a hawk! Why didn't the person come to play professionally if he had such good eyesight?!
After she brushed her teeth and washed her face, she saw the WeChat message from the team manager informing her that the team was going to go to the arena soon and asked if she wanted to go with them.
Tong Yao saw her reflection in the mirror, with messy hair, pale face, and black circles under her eyes. It wouldn't be good if her new teammates got so scared by her appearance that it negatively affected their performance. She grinned sheepishly and replied to the manager,
It's not far from here. I'll walk over myself.
Afraid of being labeled as lazy, she jumped into the bathroom to shower and wash her hair.
An hour later, Tong Yao was in front of the gate of the arena and joined the long line to go in.
There were a couple of young men, dressed like normal college students, about twenty years old in front of her. Before them, there were a group of girls carrying bags full of hundreds of blue and white banners. Since CK's team logo was in red and black, Tong Yao assumed that they were the fans of her new employer. Several girls held smaller glow in the dark boards in their hands and placards with cartoon images of Lu Sicheng, Ming god, and other members of her new team. The girls were chatting excitedly about the coming game.
"Are these girls coming to watch the game or a Korean pop concert?" The guy in front of Tong Yao whispered in complaint to his friend.
"I'm so tired of these fan girls, as if they were chasing after those Korean stars in the esports world. They probably haven't even reached level 30 yet. They would scream at any combo of abilities from those players."
"Yeah, yeah. It's the same when I watch streams. They even scream 'don't kill him'. Shit, I can't stand it."
"It's a man's game, I don't know what these girls are excited about. They probably don't even know all the heroes? Someone in Gold is probably good enough for them. The other day while I was watching a game, a girl from behind me asked what mid was. I almost fainted!"
The guy suddenly turned around to take a look as if he was afraid of being overheard. He met a pair of round black eyes. He was startled then realized that the one behind him was also a girl.
A girl with short hair, wearing a cap, t-shirt, pants, and slippers was staring at him as if he was some sort of alien.
Both of them were ill at ease.
"We're all fans coming to watch the game. I don't think anyone is better than the others?" Tong Yao cleared her throat and raised her hands to clarify, "First of all, I know what mid is. It's the one who takes the middle lane."
Young man A.......
Young man B, "Aiya, we are not talking about all the girls. Just some of them. Hey, which server do you play on?"
Tong Yao, "I'm on Chinese server one, Ionia."
Young man B, "Server one! I'm on five, Chinese server, so you play on the Korean server too?"
Tong Yao, "Yeah."
Because she had reached the top of her server.
And it was top Chinese server.
The young man A rolled his eyes. "What rank on the Korean server?"
Tong Yao smiled, "Challenger. I just got it recently."
