The sacred tree is about to pass, and the cannon fodder's wish countdown is coming

Chapter 421 Esports and online romance, anchors and companions 25

Today is the day when Chenxing Club recruits professional players.

Lu Shi was not in a hurry to go, but went to school first and asked for a long vacation for himself.

The counselor disagreed at first. After all, the original owner was always failing his subjects. Wouldn’t taking a long vacation be even more detrimental to his studies?

However, Lu Shi repeatedly assured her and promised that if she failed the exam again, she would be held back.

This is how the counselor agreed.

It's just that she asked for too long of a leave, so the counselor only approved her leave for this semester. It depends on how she does in the final exam before he will consider signing subsequent leave applications.

That’s right, Lu Shi asked for a two-year long leave, but the counselor only approved it for this semester.

The main reason is that Lu Shi doesn’t want to waste time in school. After all, her main goal is to become a professional game player.

This meant she would live in the club, practice with her teammates all day, and have no time to come to school.

As for whether she would be successful in the interview, Lu Shi didn't consider this question.

For her, there is no such word as failure.

After arguing with the counselor for a while and completing the relevant procedures, Lu Shi finally walked out of the school.

She wanted to meet her roommates, but they were in class at the moment, and Lu Shi didn't want to see teachers who had stereotypes about her.

So she sent her leave request in the dormitory group to inform them of the situation and left school.

The club's job fair ended after 4 p.m., and it was less than 10 p.m. when Lu Shi left the school.

She called Li Quan on her mobile phone before taking a taxi to her destination.

After Lu Shi arrived at the club, she did not interview with the others. Instead, she was led by Li Quan and directly entered the second team to accept their test.

Since Lu Shi was brought in by the club manager Li Quan, he had certain advantages, so he skipped the selection of the youth training team and competed with the team's second team.

The members of Team One were concentrating on their training in the training room. When they saw the newcomer Lu Shi, they just glanced at him casually and immediately shifted their attention to their phones.

This team is called Star Alliance. Previously, a main player of the first team announced his retirement due to a wrist injury, and was replaced by a player from the second team.

In order to prepare for the professional league in a month, they are now working hard to train their tacit understanding with the new players.

It is precisely because of this that the second team, which already has vacancies, is in urgent need of recruiting new players, which is why they are recruiting from outside.

When Lu Shi met Li Quan, it was like taking a back door, skipping the youth training team and connecting directly with the second team.

But becoming a professional player is not as simple as just taking the back door.

As soon as Lu Shi entered the field, he faced provocation from several members of the second team.

The team members are all boys, so of course they would be dissatisfied when they saw that she was a girl who got in through the backdoor.

One of the team members walked up to Lu Shi with a stern look on his face, "One on one?"

"Come." Lu Shi casually pulled out a chair and sat down, took out his cell phone and went to the toilet.

"Use the hero you are best at to fight me." The team member reminded.

It seemed that he wanted to break down Lu Shi's defense in the area where she was best at.

But Lu Shi was even more pretentious, saying lightly, "There's no best, they're all about the same."

In short, she's good at it.

A sneer escaped the corner of the team member's mouth, "You're quite arrogant."

Lu Shi smiled: "Whether he's arrogant or not, we'll know after we give him a try."

They entered the one-on-one interface, Lu Shi selected a jungle hero and entered the game.

At the beginning, both of them focused on development, constantly adjusting their positions to reduce the health of both the enemy and the soldiers.

The team member obviously didn't expect that the girl in front of him was so capable, and even her positioning and game awareness were much better than his.

After Lu Shi got the first drop of blood, he sat up straight and his expression gradually became serious.

While he was waiting for resurrection, Lu Shi hid in the bushes along the line of troops.

There is more than one bush, and the team members who are already at a disadvantage want to eat the minion line, but they have to use skills to explore the surrounding bushes first.

But even though he was well prepared, all his actions were within Lu Shi's expectations.

As expected, Lu Shi took his second kill.

The other team members surrounding them were stunned.

How could it be so fast?

He died before he could even react?

When they looked at Lu again, the contempt in their eyes was no longer there, and was replaced by fear and faint admiration.

Everyone cheered when Lu Shi won the duel with a record of 8-0-0.

"Of course you did! You actually beat the captain of our second team. I guess I'll have to give up the captain's throne to you in the future."

"This reaction speed is amazing. I was stunned by it."

"And this predictive ability. It feels like I can understand the captain's thoughts. I can always accurately guess the captain's next move."

"Come on, come and fight me. I really want to test your strength myself!"

The remaining team members began to challenge Lu Shi one by one.

Without exception, they all lost, and lost miserably.

But they were not unhappy. Instead, they burst into huge cheers after every victory of Lu Shi. It was obvious that they regarded themselves as a cheerleading team, and a cheerleading team belonging to Lu Shi alone.

This is how it is in e-sports. As long as you are strong, you will be respected.

On the contrary, no matter how great your family background is, as long as your skills are poor, people will look down on you.

"With your skills, you can go to the first team!" A member of the second team suddenly said this.

The training base is very large. In order to prevent tactical leaks, players from Team One and Team Two are prohibited from having close personal contact. Therefore, Team Two and Team One are in different training spaces, but not very far away. Their voices are loud, and people from Team One have already noticed them.

As expected, what the team member said at this time reached the ears of all the members of Team One.

The player who was just promoted from the second team to the first team: ...

It seems like as soon as he got promoted, someone comes to take his job.

Zhounian is the one who just stood out from the second team and became a member of the first team. He is the most nervous about the professional league in a month.

Compared to other players on Team 1, he has to work harder to match their playing style and form a tacit understanding with them, but at the same time he is afraid that he will not be strong enough and be replaced by players on Team 2.

Now that there seems to be a more powerful newcomer, he feels that his chances of playing are slimmer and he might even be pushed out.

He pricked up his ears anxiously, wanting to listen carefully to the new member's opinion, but their voices seemed to suddenly become quieter and he could no longer hear them.

Being able to enter the first team, one must have good ability to withstand pressure. Therefore, despite feeling a lot of pressure, one can still devote oneself to training seriously.

On the second team's side, Lu Shi just smiled indifferently in response to the team member's praise.

In fact, there is no difference between Team One and Team Two to her. She even likes Team Two quite a bit.

Compared with the first team, the salaries of teammates on the second team are not low either. Some players on the second team even have higher salaries than the first team members of the bottom-tier team.

Moreover, your exposure in the public eye will be lower, and there will be many competitions you can participate in.

The original owner's wish was not as grand as winning the world championship. He just wanted to become a professional player, make money and prove himself.

Therefore, Lu Shi felt that it didn't matter whether she was in the first team or the second team.

But it doesn't stop some people from taking it seriously.

Li Quan stood aside and watched Lu Shi integrate well into the team atmosphere, and nodded with satisfaction.

It seems that his vision is still the same as before, he saw a genius at first sight.

But if Lu Shi could really make it to the first team and win the world championship, then wouldn't he, as a mentor, also become famous...

Li Quan couldn't help but laugh out loud, thinking silently about the feasibility of this idea.
