Believe me, I really am a professional League of Legends player.

Chapter 25: A Huge windfall! A massive boost in strength!
Li Fan went back to the basement, took a shower, and went straight to sleep.

They had no idea that things had gotten so chaotic outside.

The hashtags #EDGMidJungleFracture# and #UnrealRejectsClearlove# already had a lot of traffic, and then, with the help of some people, they quickly rose to the top of the trending topics list.

The comments section was initially filled with unanimous criticism from EDG fans and Clearlove's personal fans.

[What is this? A substitute acting so arrogantly? He doesn't even respond when his older brother calls him for duo practice? In a company, this would get him fired on the spot.]

[Mingkai invited you out of respect, but does he really think he's something special?]

[His performance in scrims was exposed, he's not playing ranked games, and he's been playing random, nonsensical games on stream. He's set a terrible precedent. He should just get out of EDG!]

This excited the marketing accounts. The traffic was indeed astonishing. Next time, they would definitely create these kinds of contradictions.

The more traffic they generate, the more money they earn.

So as long as there's traffic, he doesn't care whether you live or die.

According to the original plot, Li Fan already had a bad reputation, and with this added impact, he was very likely to be killed.

Even if they aren't eliminated, the club's treatment will be extremely poor, and they definitely won't get any playing time at all.

After all, clubs also need to consider their reputation to some extent.

If you give a player who is criticized for lacking professionalism a chance to play, wouldn't that be like putting the players who are training normally in the training room on the ground?
But something unexpected happened: with the influx of QQ Speed ​​players, the style of the game began to change drastically.

The main reason is that QQ Speed ​​is not as popular as it used to be.

League of Legends dominated all sorts of competitions.

Now that a streamer has finally broken into the mainstream, as long as you stream QQ Speed ​​and teach them the skills, that's a good thing.

But they were suppressed like this as a result!

How could they possibly accept that?

Moreover, Li Fan has quite a few racing fans.

The main focus is on the new version of the Super Drift tutorial and the Matsumae Gas Lock tutorial, which is groundbreaking.

This will only be a tiny prototype by the time this year's King of Cars competition ends.

But it must be said that Jiang Zhangchuang is indeed a genius in the world of racing.

I've figured out quite a few techniques...

[Are the League dogs getting desperate? It's none of your business what they do.]

[Unreal Engine's racing skills are top-notch, even among professional players. Playing League of Legends is a favor to you guys!]

[So what if I refuse? Is the factory manager your father? Does that mean I have to go along with him? You just enjoy workplace manipulation, huh?]

League of Legends players can't stand this kind of provocation, especially since League of Legends is the most popular game right now.

For a game like this that's already past its prime, why not just kneel down obediently?

QQ Speed? Isn't that a game anyone can play? It doesn't deserve to be called esports!

[Hilarious! A game that relies on in-game purchases to buy cars is trying to piggyback on League of Legends' popularity?]

[You spoiled brat, go back to your kindergarten!]

This led to a rapid escalation of the online flame war, which spread from Weibo to Tieba, Hupu, and Zhihu.

The argument quickly escalated from whether Li Fan should refuse the factory manager's invitation to duo queue to mutual attacks on the game's competitiveness, player quality, and overall value.

A message might suddenly pop up in some Steam game groups or even unrelated American TV series discussion groups.

"Brothers! Let's bombard our QQ Speed ​​players on Weibo! If you're a QQ Speed ​​player, come help us out!"

"League of Legends players, gather! Charge at these kart racing players and show the racing guys who's the real top esports player!"

Some of Li Fan's fans threw the instructional videos directly in their faces.

"Are there any League of Legends players who can do a better job than this? Pressing so many keys in one second, is there such a thing in League of Legends?"

LOL players then shared highlight reels of top mid laners like Faker and Pawn.

Especially the battle between the two...

What kind of operations can you perform by simply controlling a small car to run around randomly?
This resulted in Li Fan not being the main source of damage.

The current flame war is mainly about the two games... When Li Fan woke up, he was stunned when he saw the various push notifications on his phone while brushing his teeth.

He had anticipated that his refusal of the factory manager would attract attention from gossip accounts and cause a major uproar, but he never expected...

Racing fans actually supported me.

To be honest, I was quite touched.

[Congratulations, host, your QQ Speed ​​spreading influence has reached level 1]

[Gained: 1000 learning points, 2 free attribute points.]

what?
What the hell!

Get rich!
Li Fan truly hadn't expected such a reward.

After all, I had my own ulterior motives at the beginning.

If more people criticize you, more people will come to your live stream.

This will definitely increase the game's influence, and the daily fixed salary will increase.

But such a huge blow right off the bat?

One thousand learning points, two free attributes.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Fan understood.

Although it has trended on social media quite a few times before, it is different from this time.

Although the previous trending topics mentioned playing other games, they were still mainly from the League of Legends community.

This time, QQ Speed ​​players got involved, and the event generated a huge buzz.

And it's still in the fermentation stage...

If the hype is this exaggerated in just one night, what about two or three days later?
Will I be held responsible?
Li Fan was very much looking forward to it.

If that's calculated, the reward seems quite substantial.

It turned out that participating in QQ Speed ​​professional competitions and making instructional videos were the right moves.

My already wonderful mood has become even better now.

I decisively added these two free points to the reaction, and the reaction value came to 88.

Such a great start!

Cheer for me! Celebrate me!

……

"Holy crap, how did such a cool guy suddenly appear on the flying car? How come the Spring Cart is going so fast?" Liang Haihui was bored and scrolling through his phone.

Jiang Zhangchuang, who was sitting next to him, curiously peeked over.

As a result, I saw the flatbed truck rushing over the acceleration strip, then locking the tires and drifting at an exaggerated speed through the corner.

"How can it run so fast? This is a handcart!"

“Yes, I’m curious too. A landing speed of over 600… I wonder what his finger technique is like.” Liang Haihui frowned. Spring was his signature image.

In his view, the optimal way to run around each point is already the result of research.

But today, when I saw the trending topics about a genius racer, I honestly didn't take him seriously.

No matter how talented or capable someone is, can they be more capable than me? Can they be more capable than Jiang Zhangchuang?
They are determined to win this year's racing championship.

However, QQ Speed ​​has never been on the trending topics list this much before, or rather, professional players have never been on the trending topics list. Even though it's a game that nobody plays now, I was curious and watched Li Fan's live stream.

Upon closer inspection, I was truly shocked.

Very impressive... extremely impressive.

"We need to watch his live stream," Jiang Zhangchuang said to Liang Haihui.

Liang Haihui nodded.
