You Use a Gun, I Use a Bow (BL)

58 - What kind of monster are CLM?

After the CLM finished their meeting, they all took a bath and went to sleep. The manager had warned them not to look at Weibo, the forums, or anything else during the competition, so that they wouldn’t see something they shouldn’t see that could affect their state during the game. They all listened to him—except Mo Chen. When Mo Chen had just stepped into the e-sports circle and entered the public view, he didn’t take the online evaluations of him seriously. Even when he went to read the netizens’ comments about him, especially those of the anti-fans, he had a lighthearted attitude towards them.

It was ridiculous that these people who had never stepped into his life or even talked to him face to face thought that they knew him, and full-heartedly complained about their imaginary image of him. Therefore, Mo Chen had always been above refuting them. Since he didn’t take them to heart, there was no need to shirk from reading them. However, even though he wouldn’t take them to heart, Mo Chen was way too lazy to flip through all those comments—He logged in to Weibo and looked at the 17th professional league’s official account for the first time. Their latest Weibo post announced the rankings for all the teams after the first day of the spring competition.

They hadn’t stayed on the scene for the second match of the squad competition, so they didn’t know the final result. He had never expected that the champion of that match would be the QAQ team. Yes, the QAQ that Lan Yan had gone to. He and his new captain had worked together to survive until the end and got ten kills, obtaining the most points in that match. Their final total points put them in fourth place, right below MQ. Mo Chen sighed with some emotion. Maybe it wasn’t that Lan Yan had regressed, but that Mo Chen wasn’t able to allow him to properly utilize his strength. However, even if Mo Chen had to make a decision again, he’d still allow Wen Xi to replace Lan Yan. Therefore, when he saw QAQ’s achievements, he only felt a bit emotional, but not regretful. At this time, he didn’t realize what Lan Yan’s departure meant, and didn’t take the real worry in Liu Weizhe’s words to heart.

The next day followed the same order of a solo match, duo match, and then squad match. The first solo match, according to the final agreed-on arrangement last night, had Ling Shuyi and Chen Wei participating. Ling Shuyi had experience in solo matches ah!

Therefore, instead of feeling nervous, he felt like a fish in water, and pledged to his teammates and coach, “Leave it to me ba! I’ll definitely help bring back a first place for all of you!”

He didn’t expect that everyone would roll their eyes at his words, all with disbelieving looks.

Chen Xiao had originally wanted to say, “It’ll already be really good if you don’t turn into a lootbox upon landing.” However, before the words left his mouth, he was afraid of pulling up any flags he shouldn’t pull up for the team, and swallowed those words back up again.

On the other hand, Liu Weizhe said coolly, “You’re bragging too much.”

Ling Shuyi hmphed and decided to let his teammates see his strength. Chen Wei, who was pairing up with him, usually talked a lot, but at this moment, he was silent. It was obvious that he was a bit tense, but at the same time, there was a small trace of fighting spirit in his bright eyes. Obviously, he wasn’t intending to lie down and die.

When the two people went up to check their equipment, Chen Xiao suddenly said, “Maybe Xiao Wei will be very suitable for solo matches.”
