League: Educating LPL is my duty.

At 11 p.m., Mr. Li, who had been busy all day, ordered a bowl of spicy hot pot and took out his phone to relax.

When I opened Weibo and scanned the QR code, I found that my comment section had suddenly exploded, increasing from 11,000 comments last time to nearly 40,000 now.

"Holy crap, I'm trending again?"

Li Chen glanced through the comments and saw that many of them were cursing him, leaving him completely bewildered.

He then followed the clues to the trending video, watched it, and his eyes lit up.

"Hey bro, I don't remember paying you. Isn't it hard work for you to help me drive traffic?"

That's right, Li Chen didn't care at all whether the other party was cursing him or not.

With fame comes controversy; who can avoid being criticized?

As long as it generates traffic, feel free to criticize; he won't see it anyway.

When he wins the championship, great scholars will naturally debate the classics for him!

However, this video that criticized him actually showed him a new way to attract traffic.

To match up with the other party, Li Chen quickly took advantage of the hype and posted a Weibo: That's right, I am the god_C who boasted that I am the world's number one top laner. There are still ten months until the World Championship finals. Before the champion top laner appears this year, I can boast for at least another ten months!

(Smiling and making a peace sign)

@RNG Club, you haven't paid me the wages you owe me. You've been behind for six months, and you also owe me severance pay. Remember to transfer it to me, or I'll really file for labor arbitration!

After posting on Weibo, Li Chen also turned on the comment section, which was only open to fans.

Want to curse? No problem! But first, follow me. Otherwise, what will you do if you can't find a place to curse later?

As soon as the new Weibo post was released, it was naturally received first by Li Chen's fans.

Some of Li Chen's fans were initially worried that he would become withdrawn from the criticism, but after seeing this Weibo post, they burst out laughing.

"I knew C would produce people like this; they wouldn't care whether anyone criticizes them or not."

"No, no, no, he still cares. I suspect C has masochistic tendencies."

"C has really figured out how to use traffic. But to be fair, let C keep winning, bring back that damn trophy, and take us all to godhood."

"I don't know whether we'll win the championship or not, but C's performance really fits my definition of a top laner: to dominate with superior mechanics. That's what a true world's best top laner is."

"Honey, I love you. If you're ever sad, you can come to me. Check my private messages!"

RNG Club was tagged again, and many of Li Chen's fans left messages, with most of them asking: How much economic compensation should be paid for being owed six months' salary?

When the RNG owner saw this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

He really didn't expect Li Chen to be so resilient. He had gone to such lengths to hire people to smear Li Chen, but the guy acted like nothing had happened.

Is there any reason?

Is there no law left?

Do you even have any shame?

However, what no one knew at the time was that although Li Chen, the person involved, ignored these comments, some people couldn't sit still.

After receiving the report from operations, Abu immediately told the boss, Ed Zhu, about it.

This is clearly a case of someone paying for online trolls behind the scenes, especially that content creator; they must be punished.

Upon receiving the message, Ed Zhu immediately instructed: "Contact a lawyer immediately, preserve the evidence, and sue this content creator and all the well-known bloggers who reposted the video."

EDG certainly doesn't lack the money to hire lawyers for lawsuits. Edward Zhu absolutely will not allow anyone to smear Li Chen like this, after all, he is EDG's future savior and traffic guarantee.

Late at night, Li Chen was eating spicy hot pot and drinking War Horse liquor while video chatting with his factory back in his hometown.

"It's not about the factory. Do you think I look like I'm in trouble? It's just a few videos trying to smear me. Brother, I'm open to anything, okay? That's the magnanimity and mentality of your top laner daddy," Li Chen said with a smile.

Seeing Li Chen acting as if nothing had happened, the factory manager on the phone couldn't help but complain, "That's right, you shameless bastard, you don't care about anyone but money, attacking you is just to get more traffic for you."

"Hey, hey, hey, that's not right. I still have some self-respect, okay? At least I wouldn't do something like not playing well in Worlds and then adding an 8 to my ID next year to pretend to be a newbie," Li Chen said meaningfully.

Factory manager: "You little brat, you can't stand a day without badmouthing me, can you?"

Li Chen took a sip of War Horse liquor and let out a burp: "A beating is a sign of affection, a scolding is a sign of love. This represents my love for you as a fan. And don't forget to train when you get back. When we get back, let's have a solo match. I'll test if your skills have deteriorated. Whoever loses treats us to hot pot at the Western-style mansion."

The factory manager was utterly speechless and couldn't help but roll his eyes: "If you want to rip me off with a hotpot meal, just say so. Don't beat around the bush."

"This isn't a trap, it's a spur to action. If you win, I'll treat you too."

"You deserve to die, C-class isn't called that for nothing."

The factory hung up the video call immediately, and he even beat Li Chen. If he had that skill, Scout would have been the starting mid laner long ago.

But jokes aside, after hanging up the phone, the factory manager, who was about to go to bed, hesitated for a moment and then sat down in front of the computer.

As the team's top player, Li Chen plays ranked matches for fourteen hours a day during his holidays. What reason does he have not to work hard?

Could it really be as Li Chen said, that 7 should be changed to 8?

The online controversy continues to escalate, but it doesn't affect Li Chen's daily life.

Three days later, the agreed-upon broadcast time with Shark arrived. Shark Live had done some glitches these past few days, and also gave promotions when the app was opened.

Around six o'clock, Li Chen sat down in front of his computer on time and checked his live stream in advance using a guest account.

Well, his abstract fans still love him. Even with the screen off during the live stream, he keeps sending small gifts, and his popularity is approaching one million. It's just that the comments are not very friendly.

"C, why aren't you out yet? I saved you money for a foot massage, just waiting for you to come out so I can give it to the female anchor in front of you."

"I heard C was arrested for soliciting prostitution, is that true?"

"Probably. Last night I saw C committing inhumane acts of torture against a scantily clad woman in the bushes."

"To be honest, after not seeing him for so long, I suddenly miss him quite a bit. I guess I'm sick."

"I bet a hundred dollars that C is definitely peeking at the screen from the dog's furtive activity."

"Why even gamble? If he's not spying, I'll just eat him!"

"C, get out here right now!"

Looking at the comments, Li Chen was startled: "Damn, do these guys know me this well now? How am I going to make money in the future? But they'll never guess what I'm going to do today. I even used the Glory Bible, so can I borrow the background music too?"

Although he suspected that someone had installed surveillance cameras at the base, Li Chen still started his broadcast on time.

At exactly 6 PM, Li Chen's live stream lit up. Before the viewers could even see him, a voice rang out: "Hey, hey, hey, it's been a few days! Everyone, please type 'Welcome to the World's Number One' in the chat!"
