Chapter 7
Ming god's retirement announcement was only a brief interlude. The finals weren't over yet. He had to pull himself together and finish playing the final battle of his professional career.
The audience began to return to their seats before the second round started......In the darkness, no one paid attention to a short-haired girl who was typing something on her phone while briskly walking. If someone did notice the screen of her phone, that person would think she was simply one of the hundreds and thousands fans who was crying loudly about Ming god's retirement on Weibo-- --
She continued typing until the second before she reached her own seat. She blew a long breath out and posted the message onto Weibo, then put the phone back into her pocket.
A few seconds later, those who were on Weibo sharing the big news "I just watched Ming god announce his retirement" suddenly noticed another post that was being shared by ZGDX's official site-- --
[Smiling: ZGDX, smiling]
At that moment, those who knew "Smiling" began posting in a frenzy.
Ten minutes later, those who didn't know of "Smiling" and had search online about it also joined in the craze-- --
It was an explosive news for everyone!
[Pig Lady: Is it true that a girl plays professionally?]
[Ah Han: I've always said that this Smiling is either someone playing for her or is actually a man. Just what I expected.]
[King of the Bicycle: Damn, ZGDX is crazy to have an unknown streamer replace Ming god. And it's a girl! I don't believe Smiling is a girl!]
[Cute Cheng Ge:.....................really, ZGDX, as long as you're happy.]
[Wife of Lu Sicheng: What? You mean there will be a girl eating, sleeping, playing games, and competing together with my hubby? Excuse me, what's the address of their base? I'm sending over some blades.]
[ZGDX is the only one: ......I don't know what to say. You always want big news. So tonight, you plan to bombard your fans with one bombshell after another so the fans can't sleep tonight.]
[God of Support, Fatty: I told you girls can play professionally. I'll keep playing this game QAQ]
[AKB49: What's wrong with you guys? Is it that surprising to have a female player? Wasn't there a female support at the North America region last year?]
Ten minutes after the posting, there were over 5000 comments and the post had been shared over 3000 times.
......
While all this were happening, the one who posted the explosive news was busy taking out tissues from her pocket to hand over to the sobbing girl next to her and comforting her at the same time, "Don't cry, don't cry. The competition is still on. Look! The game is starting!"
The girl mumbled a thanks, took the tissue, and raised her head to watch the large screen. The second round had begun, they were banning champions-- --
All the players on the stage were wearing sound proof earphones. Whatever happened out there had nothing to do with them now. Ming god had also calmed down somewhat, though his eyes were still slightly reddish. He turned sideways to talk to the support, Little Fatty. Little Fatty had said something and both of them were laughing......
Tao Yao felt better seeing them laugh. Actually, she had been opposed to the idea of having Ming god announced his retirement during the intermission. She felt that it would affect the player's mindset......However, the organizer needed a climax to make money and this year's Spring Finals was quite successful at creating a lot of buzz-- --
"Ming god announced his retirement at the LPL Spring Finals" had become the top search on Weibo.
Many people were posting their regret for not buying tickets to the competition.
