I'm An Olympic Superstar Chapter 63

The camera was on team WYD at the beginning.

WYD was the 2nd ranked team at the current juncture and only had one point less than IM. As such, they were receiving plenty of attention and the cheers for them were rather intense.

After flas.h.i.+ng pa.s.sed the five team members of WYD, the camera was s.h.i.+fted to the members of JAY.

The results were as expected. The first four members might also have fans, but they were obviously inferior to WYD.

Until the camera s.h.i.+fted to Xiao Ran…

Liu Xuejing started off feeling curious as she looked at the screen. When she saw that face being broadcasted on the large screen, she felt a jolt as though she was electrified.

It's him!

It was that young man who would constantly tease her on WeChat and suddenly disappear, he would also frequently run into her dream.

Since the elimination of the singing contest, she had never seen him again and he didn't ask her out either.

It might only have been five days, but her mind had been constantly thinking of him.

Hmph, so annoying!

But when the camera s.h.i.+fted to Xiao Ran, the entire hall was like a surging tide as the cheers nearly lifted the roof. Liu Xuejing was truly happy for him.

It seemed like no matter where Xiao Ran was, he was just like a superstar and would be cheered on by all the audiences.

It was the same at the stage of , it was the same here!

It was also at this moment, Liu Xuejing's opinion about Esports had started to change.

Before this, she thought that Esports was merely playing games.

But now, in this large-scaled venue that could host 4000 individuals and with such a long queue was just so that they could watch these people ‘playing games'.

Was this just a game?

It didn't seem to be the case…

Xiao Ran was currently discussing with his ADC teammate on the dirty strategy that they had repeatedly practiced. He didn't notice that there was a camera in front of his face.

Xiao Ran only lifted his head when he was notified by his teammate.

Before he said h.e.l.lo to the audiences, he merely smiled and the vast crowd in the venue had flared up!!

A whole bunch of signs were lifted up and glow sticks were all being waved. It was an extremely spectacular sight!!

“Oh Oh Oh. Heavens, Xiao Ran's popularity is simply…”

Before wawa could finish his statement, his voice was overwhelmed by the cheers.

When the camera was directed at Xiao Ran, the cheers were several times more than the other players. It was the kind of cheers that elite Esports players like Clearlove and Uzi would generate.

But this was also because of the limelight of , allowing Xiao Ran's fans to reach a ma.s.sive number.

In the audience this time, a large portion of them were purely here to see Xiao Ran and weren't here to watch the matches…

Xiao Ran took a deep breath at the waves of cheers that rushed at his face!!

There were countless expectant and excited faces, and countless eyes that were like the stars in the sky!!

This feeling was truly comfortable.

Xiao Ran might have transmigrated but he was also a normal person. He could be said to be a ‘normal person' with cheats.

Anyone would feel proud in this situation as there were more people to watch his incomparable talents in this domain!!

He was enjoying the magnificent scene of the pa.s.sionate cheers from thousands of people, he was enjoying the upsurge as everyone yelled out his in-game ID and name, he was enjoying an electrifying sensation as he was getting charged!!!

Xiao Ran was a n.o.body in his previous life, but now, there were 4000 live audiences, millions of viewers on computers and mobile phones that were paying attention to his match…

Xiao Ran could feel his blood boiling!

He was no longer an ordinary player, but a professional player using his youth to fight for his future!

Yes, he was the world's most incredible professional player who could turn ‘cheats' on!!!

Alright then. Let my professional career's debut leave a deep impression for everyone!!

“Ladies and gentlemen, you are watching the LoL Secondary Pro League brought to you by Tencent. Today is Week 8!”

“On the right, it is this season's seeded team, WYDream! Right now, WYDream is temporarily ranked 2nd in the league. If they can win this match, they will be on par and will be ranked 1st together with IM!”

“On the left, is a team that everyone is familiar with. They are the team that has just changed their team name this year, JAY. After the first seven weeks of the season, JAY's result isn't very ideal, but today, JAY has added a new Support player, G.o.d Kun! This match is G.o.d Kun's professional debut and I believe everyone is also looking forward to seeing the dazzling mechanics that G.o.d Kun will show us.”

“Alright, we have finished the introductions of the two teams. Which team is stronger and which is weaker? Which team will take down the match? Let's pay attention to the upcoming match!!”

After wawa's resounding opening speech, the in-game image had finally switched to the pick and ban phase!

JAY was at the red side, hence, blue side's WYD had banned the first champion, Ezreal.

JAY subsequently banned Kennen.

Blue side then banned Ashe.

JAY then targeted the opposing Jungler by banning Lee Sin.

Blue side banned Jhin.

JAY then used the final ban on Vladimir.

The bans on JAY's side were all decided by the coach and Xiao Ran didn't really meddle with it.

After all, the LSPL was already at Week 8, the coach was definitely much more familiar with the opposition's most proficient champions and team composition, allowing better bans.

As for the pick phase, Xiao Ran had already talked to the coach about the champions they would choose for the bot-lane. Afterwards, the coach composed a team composition according to the bot-lane's champions.

“Are you sure you are going to use that dirty strategy?” The coach took a glance at Xiao Ran and asked.

“Of course. Trust me, even if we don't play with trickery, this bot-lane combination is also very powerful.” Xiao Ran replied firmly.

Before Jay Chou left, he instructed the coach to respect Xiao Ran's opinions and suggestions. If there were times when there was a clash in opinions, Xiao Ran's decision was the same as Jay Chou's decision.

Jay Chou sounded very soft but his meaning was very obvious: If there are differences in opinions, you just have to listen to Xiao Ran.

After hearing how insistent Xiao Ran was, the coach nodded and gave a silent approval.

In fact, the coach also felt that if this strategy was played well, it would truly be very dirty.

Even though their ADC was a little weak, it didn't mean that this strategy wouldn't work. Furthermore, this bot-lane combination was rather good.

For WYD's first pick, they immediately s.n.a.t.c.hed Caitlyn.

JAY had used their pre-arranged strategy and picked Rumble and Malzahar.

Subsequently, WYD picked Elise and Gnar.

During the ban phase, WYD had banned the current patch's most popular ADC before s.n.a.t.c.hing Caitlyn, The Sheriff of Piltover.

Their strategy was very simple. Since JAY's top, mid, and jungler weren't good, it didn't really matter if they were allowed to pick their proficient champions.

As for bot-lane, they had all heard of G.o.d Kun's reputable name but they didn't really bother.

In fact, G.o.d Kun was the worst research subject.

Since he wasn't easy to research, then they simply stopped researching and put all their bans towards the bot-lane. Right now, only Sivir was a viable option among the remaining ADC champions.

But if JAY picked Sivir, during the early-game phase, WYD would be able to put a lot of pressure on them. No matter how good G.o.d Kun was, there wasn't any chance to fight back.

Furthermore, almost everyone felt that G.o.d Kun was nothing to be afraid of. He had reached the no.1 rank of China's Challenger tier because he had the help of Clearlove, Flandre, Smlz, and five.

wawa: “Now that Caitlyn, Ezreal, Ashe, and Jhin aren't available, what champions would JAY pick for their last two players?”

Mille: “I feel it could be Kog'Maw as Kog'Maw is very good during late-game.”

Rita: “Kog'Maw is too weak during the early-game and doesn't have any displacement spells. I feel that Sivir has a higher chance to be picked.”

wawa: “I feel that Rita is right. Only Sivir is…”

Before wawa finished his statement, he saw JAY picking a champion and locking in.

wawa commented with surprise: “Kalista? They actually picked Kalista!? I remember after the patch, Kalista was nerfed and no one used it in professional matches anymore.”

Rita and Mille nodded together.

“The Spear Of Vengeance(Kalista), are they going to pick Alistar?”

“Alistar and Thresh are both good combinations. In fact, there are plenty of champions that could form a good combination with Kalista. I wonder who will G.o.d Kun pick?”

“Do you think G.o.d Kun will pick Blitzcrank?”

“Blitzcrank? I don't think so. This is his professional debut. It wouldn't be good if he doesn't play well.”

“I feel that it is possible. I have seen a few weeks of G.o.d Kun's livestreams, he is truly an unpredictable person.”

The three hosts were in constant debate as they guessed.

After JAY had picked Graves and Kalista, WYD's final two picks were Ca.s.siopeia and Braum.

As for JAY, they had left the last pick for Xiao Ran's Support.

Among the remaining 100 over champions, Xiao Ran found the champion he wanted and clicked on it.

“OHHHHH!!!”

When Xiao Ran's final pick appeared, the audiences were cheering pa.s.sionately!

wawa shook his head: “This pick might have dazzled my eyes, but I don't believe G.o.d Kun will lock in this champion because this champion…”

Before wawa finished speaking, the champion portrait had been locked in!!

wawa exclaimed: “He locked in! He really locked in!!!”
