He had been too busy last night. It was true that Jing Yuanzhou hadn’t paid attention to the situation on the Internet until now. It wasn’t until he saw the message from Ku Tianlu that he discovered the professional players group had completely blown up.
[Fuck, what does this interview with Win mean? Are they looking down on our domestic division?]
[I remember that this team didn’t even make it into the semi-finals last year, right? Are they so arrogant after winning the spring competition?]
[It’s too tiring to play in the Korean division so they come to our national server to relax? Do they really think there is no one in our league?]
[Isn’t it said that the professional players in South Korea have also been mobilized? It seems they really want to come to our national server to get first place.]
[In fact, I have good friends among the Korean teams. They said that they didn’t want to join in at first. It’s just that Win has stirred public opinion too much.]
[It’s true that if fans are seeking official mobilization, they will have to consider the pressure of public opinion even if they want to stay out of it.]
[Wait, what are you talking about? I just came online?]
[Guiding the way: [Video Link]]
[Warm reminder, it is recommended to drink a glass of water to calm down. They are really putting on an act.]
Jing Yuanzhou saw the chat history and more or less understood what was going on. He clicked on the video link posted in the group. The person in the video was the MVP of the game and was being interviewed. He had striking red hair and judging from the uniform he was wearing, he was a member of the Win team. It was said that Win had dug up a lot of newcomers this year. Judging from the strange young face, he should be one of them.
After playing for so many years, Jing Yuanzhou had learned some Korean for the convenience of the World Competition. He could understand the content of the words even without looking at the subtitles translation. “In fact, this game wasn’t played very well. Fortunately, the opponent seems to be more out of shape than me. If I played normally then I should’ve taken more than 10 heads…. but there won’t be any such distractions in the following matches. As stated before, this winner of this year’s World Competition must be our Win. I’m not speaking big words. We really have strength.”
The host asked, “The evaluation of you on the Internet is that you are currently the top side-lane player in the Korean competition area. What do you think of this?”
The redhead looked disapproving. “I am the best in South Korea but to be more accurate, it isn’t an exaggeration to say that I am the world’s top side-lane player.”

The video came to an abrupt end here.
Jing Yuanzhou raised his eyebrow slightly. He didn’t expect the arrogant newcomer of the Win team to be a side-lane player just like him. In fact, every professional player had some common attributes of the position. Side-lane players were generally more stable and reliable. There were few players who were so arrogant and domineering.
Jing Yuanzhou saw this interview and understood why Ku Tianlu was so outraged. It wasn’t just a simple matter of mocking others. If other South Korean players really entered the Chinese server as the redhead called out for them to do, the competition for the rankings would be really lively.
In particular, this was an era where the Internet was so developed. Even if the professional players themselves didn’t want to get involved in this matter, the aroused mentality of the netizens in both countries would exert pressure on them. It would be sublimated to the level of national honor or disgrace. In this way, it wasn’t their own decision even if the players of the two major divisions didn’t want to participate in this ranking competition.
The Korean players came over with the slogan of playing for fun. Even if they failed to squeeze to the top of the leaderboard, it was just a matter of returning to their own division. However, the defensive side was completely different. Normally, no one paid attention to this thing. Even if they knew that the number one player was a South Korean player, they would laugh at most. Now under such strong public opinion, if they really let a South Korean player reach the top then it was stepping on the faces of all Chinese professional players.
Normally, professional players would try out various tactics and didn’t care about winning or losing in the rankings of their accounts. The result was that they were now under a lot of pressure. Jing Yuanzhou continued to scroll down through the chat records of the group. Unsurprisingly, the top players of each big team were pinged one by one to be summoned.
LDF – Luni: [Don’t blow it up. I’ve seen it. If the Korean players really came then I will be sure to fight.]
LDF – Luni: [I just want to ask. Who is number one in the national server right now?]
UL – BALL: [I just went to check. It is a passerby king called ‘Labor and Capital’. That was just two days ago. Now the name has been changed to ‘Labor and Capital Number One in the Country’.] (So Labor and Capital in pinyin is also Laozi, using different characters. So it is probably a pun)
LDF – Luni: [He is poor. He worked so hard for the ranking only to become the target of all snipers.]
PAY – Demen: [It’s fine. The players in this position are under great pressure. Apparently the redhead in Win is the best side-lane player in the world.]
UL – BALL: [He is really brave to speak. However, why are you under pressure? Isn’t there another one above you?]
LDF – Luni: [Forget that person. I don’t know where his mind is right now, tsk.]
UL – BALL: [Luni, aren’t you on good terms with Titans?]
LDF – Luni: [How do you see that I have a good relationship with him? #smile.jpg]
Jing Yuanzhou sent a message right at this time.
GH – Titans: [Smile.jpg]
LDF – Luni: [……]
LDF – Luni: [What the hell are you smiling at? Don’t steal my picture!]
Jing Yuanzhou took a look at the smiling emoji that came with WeChat and slowly typed: [Okay, I won’t steal your picture.]
The discussion continued after his interruption.
PAY – Demen: [Okay, the one above me has come out and I do feel like the pressure has suddenly decreased a lot.]
Three – Wuhoo: [It seems the Korean side hasn’t started yet, right?]
Three – Wuhoo: [In any case, let them come. They will come in vertically and go back horizontally.]
Three – Come: [Let me remind you… Wuhoo, do you want to check your current ranking before saying this?]
There was a noticeable pause.
Three – Wuhoo: [So what if I’m in the top 200? Do I have no right to speak if I’m not in the top 100?]
At Come’s reminder, the other players finally remembered to go and take a look at their current ranking. They were busy with the matches and didn’t play the rankings, which led to the ranking of each account being really terrible. Finally, according to the statistics, there were one or two players with great self-control who managed to maintain themselves in the top 50. It was indeed a good result to be able to stay in the top 200 like Wuhoo.
In the face of this cruel reality, the professional players couldn’t help falling into a weird silence. Finally, someone asked a very important question. [So who has the highest ranking among us?]
PAY – Demen: [It should be our team’s AI. He is currently ranked eighth in the national server. Is there anyone higher than this?]
PAY – AI: [No, I’m the highest.]
No one was surprised by the result.
After all, the pressure of the matches was too great. There already wasn’t enough time for everyone to get familiar with new tactics and study new systems. How could there be so much time to rush to the top of the rankings? Even if they rushed up for a certain period of time, there would be no time to maintain their ranks when there was a match, and other players would overtake them in minutes. For professional players like them, it was really unnecessary to care about these things except during the off-season.
The exception was AI who was an emotionless training machine. He was probably the only one who could maintain a steady state of mind without turbulence and continue to gain points in the rankings without affecting the matches.
This reality made everyone sigh involuntarily. Finally, they said they would end the chat and rush to train. All of them were ready to go to the game to raise their rankings. If the South Korean players really entered, they couldn’t lose at the starting line.
Jing Yuanzhou saw that the group had become quiet and switched from WeChat to Weibo. Not surprisingly, he found that the entire e-sports circle had already exploded. After all, young people engaged in e-sports had a lot of energy. On the hot spot alone, this matter occupied three or four very eye-catching positions at the top.
