Red Wen, born in the 00s: Rectifying the King's Canyon

He realized that, apart from Pique, all his teammates were troublemakers who refused to submit to anyone else.

If that's the case, Gu Lin'an wouldn't mind putting some pressure on them.

【Lu Xue, the number one Lanling King in the national server, I have long admired your name, my apologies for my lack of respect.】Gu Lin'an replied.

"Have you heard my story?" Lu Xue asked.

[I've heard of you; everyone knows the number one player at the peak. I still acknowledge your strength.]

"Then why do you want to compete for team captain? Are you even qualified?"

I know what you're thinking: after being suspended, you want to use this competition to get back into the public eye. Unfortunately for you, you ran into us.

You should just stick to streaming; a professional career is no longer for you.

Gu Lin'an ignored Lu Xue's mockery and turned to Gu Ci instead.

[Gu Ci is a veteran, so his strength is undeniable. Actually, when I saw the team roster, I was quite happy; at least, their strength is considerable.]

"Yes, I think so too," said Picko.

"You are not included," Gu Lin replied after a moment's hesitation.

Piketao: ...

"However, I should still be the captain." Gu Lin'an laid out so much groundwork before finally revealing his true intentions.

[Damn it, why?!]

【that is. 】

Gu Lin'an confidently replied: "[Lu Xue, although you reached the top spot many years ago, a true hero doesn't dwell on past glories.]"

[You know your skill level has declined, and now you only dare to play low-elo games to accumulate reputation points and create entertainment for your streams. Am I right?]

Have you dreamt of Xiao Qiao patting your butt with a fan from behind lately?

His words were tinged with mockery.

Lu Xue, her sore spot reopened, forced a smile and said, "That was a mistake; it doesn't mean anything."

[She's a top-ranked Xiao Qiao player in the national server.]

[Haha, Lu Xue, stop flattering yourself. This was her first time playing Xiao Qiao in a high-level ranked match, and she didn't even get a single badge. It's just that you're bad.]

Upon seeing this sentence, Lu Xue was quite surprised.

He only found out about this after the live stream. That night, he was so upset by Xiao Qiao's attack that he couldn't sleep in bed and clicked on Xiao Qiao's profile.

It was discovered that this person mostly plays the top lane or marksman Baili Shouyue in high-level ranked matches, and rarely plays the mid lane.

Only he knew this news, how could Changye know?

Is it...

Lu Xue thought of something and typed: 【You're that Xiao Qiao?】

[Correct answer.]

"Have you submitted yet?" Gu Lin'an asked.

Lu Xue paused for a moment, then replied helplessly: "If that Xiao Qiao is really you, then I'm completely convinced. You can be the captain; I've never really cared about this position anyway."

Gu Lin'an looked at Lu Xue's message and nodded slightly. With one dealt with, there were now only two troublemakers left.

I'm not targeting you personally; I'm saying everyone here is trash.

【Changye, you're being a bit arrogant. So what if you crushed Luxue once? What's there to be so proud of?】

I've crushed countless top-ranked Lanling King players in the Chinese server with Xiao Qiao.

Brother Mozi also spoke up: "If you're so capable, try using Xiao Qiao to crush my Cheng Yaojin, and see if I don't beat you up!"

[Brother Demon, just shut up, you're just peeing way too high.]

We actually met in ranked matches before. I played Gongsun Li; I don't know if you've forgotten me.

Mentioning Gongsun Li immediately made Mo Zi Ge blush.

[The anger from the Demon King, host's reaction +0.1 +0,1]

Seeing that the red temperature system reacted, Gu Lin'an chuckled and said, "Looks like you haven't forgotten."

"You're the one who was born." He hadn't forgotten Gu Lin'an's shady tactics; it was because of this kid that he was relentlessly targeted in that round.

My reputation score wasn't high at the time, and I was banned from playing after that game!

Haha, I've gone off on a tangent. Let's talk about the old saying again.

[A mid-lane player with a rank of 121, they say you tend to flaunt what you lack. Do you lack a sense of accomplishment in real life?]

Are you planning to live off this reputation for the rest of your life?

【If that's the case, I won't call you "Gu Ci" anymore; I'll call you "Number 0121," how about that?】

[Anger from ID 0121...]

So, he immediately became very popular, and his hands were pressing the buttons rapidly.

No wonder everyone calls you An÷, you were born even before Brother Mozi!

[Words are useless; skill speaks for itself. You think you're good at playing Xiao Qiao? Then let's have a one-on-one match, shall we?]

[0121, can't you use your brain before you speak? Look at our lineup composition.]

[Piketao is support, you're mid lane, Mozi is top lane, Luxue is jungle, so I'm the marksman.]

Beating you in the mid lane doesn't prove anything.

Don't you dare call me 0121!

[121, you should use your brain a little. Is your brain on the bookshelf?]

Gu Ci, angered by Gu Lin'an, sent a voice message: "Fine, I'll take the loss. You play a marksman, let's solo!"

Seeing that he had already angered Gu Ci, Gu Lin'an spoke domineeringly through the microphone: "[You? No way. Why don't you and Brother Mozi come at me together?]"

If you manage to kill even one of them, I'll kneel down and call you daddy.

If you lose, then I'll be the captain, and you'll have to listen to me in all future matches!

Taking down Gu Lin'an one by one was too troublesome, so this method saved time and allowed them to demonstrate their strength.

Do they all think they're experts? Are they all pretty arrogant?

You're arrogant? I'm even more arrogant than you!

"Alright, alright, you said it yourself, Demon Prince. Let's see how much this Long Night really is worth." Gu Ci typed, amused by the situation.

Brother Mozi had long wanted revenge, and upon hearing Gu Ci's words, he readily agreed.

[Long Night, can you even manage this? One of them is playing mid lane, and the other is playing top lane. You're the marksman, it must be tough.]

Although Piketao isn't very good at the game, she still knows some basic knowledge.

Marksmen are too fragile; if the opposing team chooses two assassin-type heroes, Gu Lin'an won't survive.

Lu Xue also said: "Choosing to play a marksman is indeed not a very wise choice."

【This is not our fault; Changye said it himself.】Gu Ci sneered.

Come on, let's book a room!

At this moment, Gu Lin'an said, "You two are in the top lane and the middle lane, so it's a two-on-one situation. I'm at a slight disadvantage."

Therefore, assuming Gu Lin'an was afraid, he mocked, "What, are you scared? If you're scared, then you'd better hide in a corner and not show your face!"

I'm not afraid of a string of code, but I have to change the rules.

"How should I change it?" Gu Ci asked through gritted teeth. He wished he could tear Gu Lin'an apart right now; this guy had such a foul mouth.

Generally speaking, getting three kills or taking down a tower counts as a win, but you two are now at a disadvantage if you forcefully push my towers.

[So, how about removing the rule about destroying defensive towers and determining the winner based on three kills?]
