Lu Yingdong took off his headphones and glanced at his stats one last time.

Only after confirming that he had secured exactly twenty-two kills did he stand up and bump fists with Jie Jie.

As soon as he stood up, he heard Mao Mao's eloquent speech from the commentary booth.

These words caught Lu Yingdong's attention.

22 kills is the Demacia Cup kill record? It seems that's really true...

If he remembers correctly, this is not only a Demacia Cup record, but also an LPL region record, which no one has broken to date!

Of course, the kills in the Demacia Cup are somewhat lacking in prestige, especially since the opposing team was a streamer team.

Even if you boast about this kind of record, people outside will still look down on it to some extent...

Furthermore, what kind of strange term is "old-timer"? It's actually quite fitting...

"Brother Dong, come with me, let's shake hands!" Jie Jie called out, worried that Lu Yingdong might not be familiar with the procedure.

"Oh, here they are." Lu Yingdong was so excited that he forgot about shaking hands for a moment, and he immediately stepped forward to catch up.

While walking, Jie Jie said with a smile, "22 kills, that's too exaggerated, Dong Ge."

"It's alright." Lu Yingdong naturally had to be modest at this point. "It's mainly because we cooperated well."

"Don't be modest, I didn't do anything." Jie Jie laughed, "You got a solo kill at level three, what does that have to do with me?"

Lu Yingdong smiled and didn't chat much. He simply walked with Jie Jie to the MOJ players' table and shook hands with each of the Huya streamers on the other side.

Bai Cai couldn't help but feel wronged when she saw Lu Yingdong, saying, "We're all on the same platform, show some respect, Dong Shen! I was cheering for Brother Ba with you just a few days ago!"

"There's nothing I can do," Lu Yingdong said with a smile. "This is my first professional match, and I want to play well."

"Alright then," Bai Cai said helplessly, "Keep up the good work in the next round, I feel like you guys can win the championship!"

Bai Cai's words were truly sincere. After all, after participating in the Demacia Cup for some time, he had a general idea of ​​the strength range of LPL teams.

Those top-ranked teams are definitely stronger than them and could probably beat them 3-0, but to crush them like that... well, that's hard to say!

"OK, definitely!" Lu Yingdong smiled and held hands with several of his fellow Huya colleagues, then followed his teammates to the center of the stage and bowed in greeting.

A burst of applause erupted from the audience, which showed that EDG's performance today had greatly satisfied the audience.

The live chat was also very lively at that moment.

[I thought EDG was in for a rough patch, but then a fierce opponent showed up?]

[Wouldn't this team be even stronger once Uzbekistan returns?]

[Don't be ridiculous, this AD is actually pretty good. Didn't the dog (referring to a player) send it?]

[This AD carry is not bad? What a disaster they threw in the third game! If DongShen hadn't been so incredibly good, it would be hard to say what would have happened.]

You don't think Uzi will stop feeding, do you? He'll only feed even more aggressively, putting pressure on his teammates in the red zone.

We'll know when Uzi takes the field. Aren't you afraid of getting bounced back if you keep playing now?

Because of today's match, countless viewers have high expectations for this EDG team.

People used to say that EDG was a rickety old kayak, but now it seems... this kayak is actually quite fast!

If they can maintain this level of performance, and Uzi can also put on a good show after his return... then this old kayak might actually be able to take on the Galacticos!

Lu Yingdong and his teammates were walking backstage when they were stopped halfway by a female host dressed in a gorgeous long dress with long, wavy hair.

hope Ran chuckled as she approached Lu Yingdong and asked with a smile, "East, are you ready for your first post-match interview?"

Lu Yingdong glanced at hope Ran, and then exchanged a look with Jie Jie beside him.

Jie Jie readily extended his hand and said, "Brother Dong, I'll help you take the peripherals back."

"OK, thanks!" Lu Yingdong handed over the peripherals with a smile, and then he and Xiran walked to the edge of the passage to make room for others to walk.

While Lu Yingdong was saying goodbye to his teammates, Xi Ran secretly glanced at him. After he turned around, she handed him an A4 sheet of paper and said, "These are some questions I'm about to ask. You can take a look and think about your answers."

Lu Yingdong took the card and saw hope Ran's delicate handwriting. The questions were mostly related to the content of the competition just now, and were obviously made up on the spot.

Lu Yingdong has always had good emotional intelligence. He only glanced at the card and had a general idea of ​​the answer in his mind. Then he quickly walked onto the stage with hope Ran.

"Welcome to the post-match interview. Today we have invited EDG's new mid-laner, East!" hope Ran said with a bright smile, shifting the focus to Lu Yingdong beside her.

This was the first time Lu Yingdong had been stared at by so many people, and he was slightly uncomfortable for a moment, but he still smiled and waved, and a round of applause rang out from below the stage.

"We all know that although East has been a professional player for many years, this is his first appearance on the Demacia Cup stage! He not only won MVP in three consecutive games, but also broke the four-year-old single-game kill record! How does East feel? Or rather, why were you able to perform so well?"

"As for how I felt, it was alright," Lu Yingdong said with a smile. "Personally, I felt very relaxed during today's match; it wasn't as difficult as I had imagined. As for the later records, I can only say that I did my best and gave it my all. As for the outcome, everything is uncertain. Perhaps I was just lucky today."

Lu Yingdong's words were truly sincere.

In his first Demacia Cup match as a professional player, Lu Yingdong was surprisingly up against a relatively weak amateur team, which sometimes gave him the illusion of playing ranked matches.

Of course, some people take this statement in a different light.

Upon hearing this, the viewers in the live chat began to elaborate on it.

[Translation: My MVP and record were purely due to my individual skill and the fact that the opposing team was relatively weak.]

[Actually, it's quite normal. This guy isn't normal; who gets solo-killed every single game?]

[You son of a bitch, it's one thing to brag when you win on stream, but now that you're in a competition, you're still bragging?]

[That's how TVXQ is]

[What's with TVXQ's livestream? I need to check it out.]

Having already been thoroughly humiliated, she watched Lu Yingdong's interview and immediately transformed into a eunuch: "Wait, why are you still pretending? Do you really think you're invincible?"

"That's truly invincible," Letme couldn't help but say. "He killed fifty of them, bro."

He fell silent again.

Lu Yingdong's performance in the third match, where he killed 22 enemies, has left him still reeling.

How can someone kill 22 in one battle? That's disgusting.

hope Ran was quite satisfied with Lu Yingdong's answer. She smiled and nodded, then began to ask some questions about the competition that had just taken place.

Lu Yingdong was well-prepared and answered all the questions one by one.

Finally, hope Ran asked, "After winning this match, EDG will advance to the semifinals of this year's Demacia Cup! Lu Yingdong, what is your ultimate goal?"

Lu Yingdong had already thought of an answer in his mind, but when the words were about to come out, he suddenly changed his mind.

"As everyone knows, the Demacia Cup has always had a nickname: the EDG Cup. From the end of S4 to now, EDG has won the Demacia Cup six times. I was a substitute for EDG in all six of these championships and witnessed them firsthand."

Lu Yingdong continued, "And now, I want to be a starting member and help the team win their seventh championship."
