Meanwhile, at EDG's well-equipped base, filled with an esports atmosphere, the EDG team members, already prepared and brimming with fighting spirit and anticipation, officially embarked on their journey.

The bus slowly started moving and headed towards the airport.

Abu sat calmly in the car and slowly said, "The venue for this competition isn't too far from us. The qualifying rounds and group stage will be held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, while the subsequent group stage will take place in Hanoi. As for the knockout stage, it will be held in Taiwan Province. We don't need to adjust too much to the time difference. Once we get there, everyone must remember not to eat anything indiscriminately, and don't go out alone and wander around. Safety first."

"Vietnam isn't India, it shouldn't have such an exaggerated problem, right?" Holy Gun Bro frowned slightly and said thoughtfully, his tone carrying a hint of doubt about Abu's advice.

"My understanding of Vietnam is limited to the fact that their currency seems to be worthless and I've heard that prices are quite cheap."

Jiejie pondered for two seconds, then turned to look at Su Mu, her eyes full of curiosity: "Brother Mu, do you know what specialties Vietnam has?"

"I'm not an omniscient knower."

Su Mu looked helpless. Recently, Jiejie had been asking so many questions that it was almost overwhelming, and she liked to ask him about everything.

At this moment, Su Mu's mind was constantly replaying those classic scenes he had seen in The Sims.

Suddenly, he remembered that in The Sims, the IG team, as the team that went to this MSI, left behind a classic and unforgettable scene in the group stage.

But this scene wasn't the impressive 1557 performance against SKT, but rather a memorable moment from Yu Wenbo's interview.

Thinking of this, Su Mu's heart skipped a beat: Could it be that this time... he wouldn't encounter one of those unreliable translators?

After realizing this potential problem, Su Mu hurriedly tried to draw a prize through the system, hoping to get a skill that would grant him fluency in Vietnamese. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and he didn't get it.

Left with no other option, Su Mu pondered for a moment and came up with an idea: if all else fails, he would offer his teammates some incentives to go up and do the interview in his place.

Hmm, that does sound like a good idea.

Thinking of this, a smile unconsciously appeared on Su Mu's lips, and his gaze began to sweep back and forth between his teammates, as if he was thinking about what kind of "temptation" to use to move them.

"Speaking of which, the European teams seem particularly high-profile and flamboyant this time, but I watched their finals and I feel that their strength should not be underestimated."

Doinb suddenly broke the silence in the car and spoke.

"It's definitely not as bad as some people on the internet say. Often, those who like to talk big and give orders online are the ones who don't understand the intricacies of the game. I also think G2 is a pretty strong team, and TL has performed quite well this year. I just don't know if they will continue to trigger the debuff that comes with the North American region in this World Championship."

Saint Gun Bro responded immediately, offering a very logical and insightful analysis.

"What we can do right now is to do our training well. To be honest, every team at this MSI seems pretty strong. That's just how this version is. It's hard to accurately compare and measure the strength of each team by only looking at the matches of one region."

……

In order to effectively avoid a series of potential problems such as poor network, unsuitable food, and inconvenience in daily life during the MSI tournament, the preparation of EDG's temporary base had already begun in full swing when EDG successfully entered the finals.

Although the tournament in Vietnam only lasted a few days, the facilities at the temporary training accommodations were in no way inferior to those of clubs in China.

From its facilities to its service details, everything reflects its strong financial resources and demonstrates its uncompromising attitude.

The qualifying rounds for this MSI tournament were held in Ho Chi Minh City, while the group stage was held at the Vietnam National Convention Center in Hanoi.

The schedule of the EDG team members was planned very carefully in advance.

Two days before the start of the qualifying rounds, the club booked a hotel not far from the GG Arena, the competition venue.

The purpose of this is to allow the players to relax first, since the EDG players have not had a vacation since the Spring Split finals.

The club cleverly used this opportunity of arriving in Vietnam early to acclimatize to the environment, allowing the athletes to take a break as well.

The players, including Su Mu, were quite satisfied with the club's thoughtful arrangements.

People are usually curious about new and unusual things.

On weekdays, people live in Shanghai for most of the time, and when they have holidays, they often struggle with where to go.

Moreover, staying in one place for a long time can easily make people lazy. Many players don't have girlfriends and don't even have the motivation to go out. In the end, even when the club gives them a break, they still choose to stay in the base playing games.

However, things were completely different when I arrived in Vietnam, where everything around me was new and exciting.

After arriving in Ho Chi Minh City, the EDG players went sightseeing under the guidance of a tour guide hired by the club.

The contestants didn't return together until just before the qualifying rounds were about to begin in the evening.

When Abu saw the players return, he waved a stack of tickets in his hand and asked enthusiastically, "Want to go watch the game live? The club will reimburse the expenses."

"I don't want to move. I'm exhausted this afternoon." Missing slumped in his gaming chair like a lump of mud. Anyone who didn't know him would think he had gone to some particularly physically demanding place.

"Young people should have the energy of youth. Besides, the club bought all the inner field tickets, which are quite expensive. It would be a waste not to go," Abu said with a smile, continuing to persuade everyone.

"How much is a ticket?" Saint Gun asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Abu made a cross with his hand: "One hundred thousand dollars, a full one hundred thousand dollars! With this ticket, we can watch all the matches that day."

Upon hearing this, everyone initially showed surprise. After all, they had just gone out for a stroll that afternoon and already had some knowledge of Vietnamese currency.

Abu's claim of "100,000 dong" sounds impressive, but in reality, 100,000 Vietnamese dong is only equivalent to about 20 yuan.

Just then, Doinb started counting on his fingers, as if he had just remembered something: "I think I saw before that the front row tickets for the group stage were 20 Vietnamese dong each. That works out to only about fifty yuan?"

The incredibly low ticket price left the EDG players looking at each other in disbelief.

After some thought, everyone finally decided to go and see for themselves.

The reason for choosing to book a hotel in Ho Chi Minh City for two days was partly to allow the athletes to enjoy two days of vacation and relax.

On the other hand, it is also to let the players experience the exciting atmosphere of the League of Legends competition in Vietnam firsthand, and at the same time observe the competitive level of each team in the qualifying rounds.
