Mingkai, if you're this cowardly, you should just go home and raise pigs.

Studying the version, compiling statistics, playing practice matches...

The lives of everyone at EDG suddenly became very busy.

The level of busyness is even greater than when playing in the LPL league.

After all, there are too many things to study and too little time.

However, being busy also means being fulfilled, and the few days passed in the blink of an eye.

On May 11th, the opening ceremony of this year's MSI finally arrived.

The opening ceremony is scheduled for 2 p.m., so everyone needs to arrive at the venue before 12 p.m. to prepare in advance and participate in the opening ceremony.

The audience and fans arrived earlier than the contestants. Starting from 9 a.m., contestants began to arrive hand in hand.

The EDG team got up early that day to eat breakfast, and then took a bus to the competition venue.

When everyone arrived at the CB_LOL studio in São Paulo.

A large number of spectators had already gathered outside.

Upon seeing EDG arrive, EDG fans in the audience cheered them on.

The other viewers, who weren't EDG fans, all cast curious glances at them.

Although EDG is not as famous as local teams or SKT in Europe and America, everyone has heard of them as the LPL's top team in domestic competitions.

This is Europe and America, after all, so it can't be compared to China.

Amidst the scattered cheers, everyone entered EDG's private rest room inside the competition venue.

After entering the lounge, Scout and Zet would occasionally pick up their water glasses to take a sip, and then go to the toilet to use the restroom whenever they had a spare moment!

It's clear they're quite nervous.

Mingkai and Meiko are seasoned veterans with plenty of experience in major competitions, so it's understandable that they weren't too nervous.

Can……

Looking at Zhou Hanyang sitting next to him, legs crossed and completely at ease, Mingkai couldn't help but have a series of question marks on his forehead.

"No, buddy! Aren't you nervous?" Mingkai asked, somewhat surprised.

"Of course I'm nervous." Zhou Hanyang nodded seriously.

"You're talking nonsense! I don't see why you're nervous!" Mingkai gave him a look that said, "Do you think I'm stupid?"

"I am indeed nervous." Zhou Hanyang, who had been looking serious, chuckled and said with a playful grin:

"But just thinking about how you'll pick Bolt's Lee Sin and kick their brains out makes me want to laugh."

"What's so funny... What are you laughing at?" Mingkai knew Zhou Hanyang wouldn't say anything nice, but he didn't expect Zhou Hanyang to bring up the very thing he didn't want to talk about, and his face immediately darkened.

Hearing the two talking, everyone else's attention was drawn to them.

"Think about it from your own perspective!" Zhou Hanyang chuckled.

"If you were on a world-class stage like MSI, where the whole world is watching, and you got completely destroyed by a Lee Sin with a speed boost, wouldn't you feel like you'd been screwed over?"

The key point is that the blind guy on the other side is playing like a piece of shit, but when that piece of shit flies into his face, he can't do anything about it.

You know what he's going to do, and the audience knows what he's going to do, but there's nothing you can do. Even if you use Flash, you'll still get caught!

Every time I'm killed by this blind man, it's like being insulted by mental excrement!

I can already imagine that the geniuses on the anti-racism forum will definitely come up with some GIFs.

For example, Usain Bolt carrying you on his back, or Usain Bolt carrying a pig on his back, and the pig supporting you from behind... Hahahaha!

Zhou Hanyang couldn't help but burst into laughter at this point, then waved his hand and said, "Sorry, sorry, I just couldn't help it!"

Upon hearing Zhou Hanyang's words, not only Meiko, but even the rather nervous Scout and Zet burst into laughter.

"Let me tell you, if it were anyone else, they wouldn't have this effect, you know? Like Peanut, because his Lee Sin is so skillful."

"If he brings a sprint skill, everyone will just say he has a good understanding of the game and is good at scientific research." Zhou Hanyang continued to control his temperature.

"But Mingkai, after you kicked out 4396, it was quite a scene, you know?"

The audience will definitely say, "Even I, in Bronze, could play this Ghost Lee Sin. It's just RQQ for damage, right? Hahahaha..."

"You little bastard, you're the real piece of shit!" Ming Kai's face was incredibly dark, and the 'well' above his head was throbbing wildly: "I've put up with you for too long, I'm going to fight you to the death!"

Mingkai and Zhou Hanyang immediately started fighting.

The group, who had been quite tense, completely relaxed at this moment.

Time passed quickly amidst everyone's playful banter.

At 2 o'clock sharp, the opening ceremony began.

On the big screen in the competition venue, the countdown began to appear: 10, 9, 8, 7...

When the countdown reached 3, 2, 1, the audience all shouted along.

Once the countdown ended, the stage was filled with a vibrant Brazilian-style drum dance.

After a few minutes of dancing, the screen switched to a different image.

The screen showing footage from the 2015 MSI tournament.

There are clips of the final match between SKT and EDG, as well as shots of the players.

One of the most classic images is Faker covering his face with his hands and slumping into a chair after losing a match.

This was followed by EDG's victory.

However, the scene quickly shifted to the 2016 MSI!

SKT, who were just supporting characters, have now taken the lead role.

They became the champions of the 2016 MSI!

The image on the big screen froze completely at this point.

Accompanied by the rousing drumbeats, the six participating teams took to the stage one by one, arriving at the center.

The team that won the previous MSI took to the stage holding the championship trophy.

The moment Faker walked onto the stage with the championship trophy, the audience erupted in a deafening roar, the shouts even louder than the drumbeats.

This is the true value of Lee Sang-hyeok!

Then came the speeches from the players of each team!

The other team players' speeches were all fairly standard.

But when it came to Mingkai, he started spouting nonsense again.

"At this MSI, I will prove who is the world's best jungler with Lee Sin!"

This statement didn't resonate much at the competition venue, mainly due to the language barrier.

Although there are subtitles on the big screen, not many people pay close attention to them.

However, this statement caused a huge uproar in China.

It was 2:30 a.m. in China, but many viewers were still waiting in the official live stream room.

If today were just EDG's debut against FW, perhaps there wouldn't be so many people here, but the first match is G2 against SKT after all.

This was a match with a very high level of skill!

After watching them, it was EDG's debut, which resulted in a large audience even during this time slot.

In the official live stream, the chat exploded with Mingkai's words!

Is it really that hard to practice one Lee Sin hero per spring season?

"Blind man? 4396!"

"Is Mingkai preparing to continue developing the Thirty-Six Stratagems? Or is he just feinting?"

"A feint is one of the Thirty-Six Stratagems? The person upstairs must have lost their mind."

"7777777!"

"If the factory manager's blind man can win, I'll just eat it!!!"

"Don't try to freeload, buddy!"

"I'm a beautiful girl from Wuhan University, 171cm tall, with a 90+ rating for looks. Physical education students can DM me. As long as the factory manager's blind man can win, I'll pick a few and give them to him directly!"

[Today's matches include EDG and LPL games, I'm super busy! I need to keep an eye on the game slices and record data, chapter two will be later!]
