BXBX NOVEL Chapter 160.1: Who the hell is friends with you!
“He’s more like a farting king. Have you seen him use any profession other than the thief?”
Back then, the grandmaster was a ‘hero’ who existed behind the scenes. He didn’t live broadcast when he trained with professional players, so naturally, nobody knew about his achievements.
Fans were unconvinced. “If he can only use thieves, then how come so many top players have been completely won over by him?”
Haters: “Who’s won over? Don’t paste gold on your own faces.”
Great. When the fans and haters started fighting, the topic went even more off track.
Wei Xiao glanced at it and said to Bai Cai, “Their combat effectiveness isn’t high enough. If it was me, I’d retaliate until the haters instantly closed up their mics and shut up.”
Bai Cai: “……”
Wei Xiao lamented, “Forget it, forget it, I’m the captain’s exclusive fan. Nobody else is worth me getting on stage for.” Including myself.
Bai Cai inexplicably choked on a mouthful of dog food.
This matter could be clarified further by releasing the chat records.
There were WeChat message records between him and Money, and him and Fu Li, and he even had a screenshot of his chat records with Fu Li because he’d been afraid that he’d go back on his word.
But it didn’t make much difference.
Everyone was just taking stabs in the dark and just wanted to join in on the fun. They would believe whatever they were willing to believe.
If the chat records were released, then they could also say that it just had been photoshopped.
After all, this kind of thing… it was too easy to fake.
Additionally, the whole network was having fun with it, and taking it too seriously would make people feel that something strange was going on.
Wei Xiao was quite cautious when it came to these things. He didn’t mind the whole internet treating him as a die-hard Close fan, but he couldn’t risk exposing his relationship with the captain.
The consequences were unimaginable.
The heavenly team victims pulled Wei Xiao into the group chat.
As soon as Wei Xiao looked at the group name, “……”
Eurostar: QAQ, QWQ, QYQ, QUQ…
Wei Xiao could be regarded as having met someone who was able to cry more than himself, “You’re about to cover up the whole group.”
Eurostar: “My illustrious name!”
Wei Xiao knew him well and also understood the quirks of his character. “What kind of reputation do you have…”
Money spoke darkly, “Then what about me and Old Fu?”
Eurostar didn’t have much of a reputation as an idol, but the two of them had two tons of it.
Wei Xiao cleared his throat. “I’m sorry, I can only be sympathetic but have no ability to help.”
What else could be done? He’d already issued a statement and clarified the matter, but the audience just wanted to kick up a fuss. There wasn’t anything he could do.
The reason why Money had pulled him into the group was also because he’d made a statement.
Little Lunatic Wei had been righteous and benevolent, and they could only swallow this injustice raw.
But Wei Xiao was good at mobilizing emotions. “Well then, let’s turn grief and anger into strength, rush into the big brawl, and overturn the world!” Make Close’s name known everywhere, how wonderful.
These words were very useful. The three of them were inspired.
Since things had already developed to this point, there was nothing they could do to recover their reputations. All they could do was fight and make a big splash in the brawl.
They’d already lost face. If their strength was then ridiculed as well, how would they continue in the Glory circle in the future?
Wei Xiao added, “I’m also to blame for this matter. At the end of the day, I was the one who got you into this mess.”
The three victims: So you do f*cking know it’s your fault!
Wei Xiao was frank. “So please be sure not to show any mercy.”
Wei Xiao sent over a hehe smiling emoticon with the words, “Requesting abuse in the big brawl!”
Money, Eurostar & Fu Li: “……”
In the next second, Wei Xiao was kicked out of the group.
This was the victims group. Don’t bring the war over here!
In the blink of an eye, the opening game for the big brawl was about to begin.
Since it was being held across different competition zones, arranging a good time for it was a little difficult. After all, the time difference between each competition zone and each continent was quite messy.
The organizers tried their best to arrange for a good time and finally settled on a relatively fair time.
The time they’d selected was 10PM for China.
Wei Xiao was recently involved in a long distance international relationship and understood the time difference very clearly. He was delighted that it would be 10AM over in America.
In any case, the captain woke up early. He just needed to arrive at the venue by 9:30AM.
What Wei Xiao regretted was, “Captain, I can’t go and watch your live broadcast.”
Lu Feng: “We’ll watch the replay together tomorrow.”
Wei Xiao’s eyes curved with his smile. “Okay!”
These days, he and Lu Feng would do game replays over the phone. Although it wasn’t as comfortable as sitting together, it was still good to hear Lu Feng’s voice.
On FTW’s side, only Wei Xiao was participating in the competition. As a player, he had invitation tickets and could bring three people with him.
Chen Feng asked around. Brother Cai covered his stomach and said, “My stomach feels uncomfortable. I won’t go.”
Xiang Liu was worried. “How come you always feel uncomfortable recently?”
Bai Cai: “……”
Wei Xiao saw through his intentions at a glance. He moved his mouth: Don’t you know how to change excuses when you pretend to be ill?!
Bai Cai was afraid that he’d be taken to the hospital and quickly patched up his excuse, “It’s not serious. I’m just afraid that I’ll want to use the toilet on the way there.”
Seeing that this topic was deviating, Wei Xiao helped him out, “He probably wants to sleep in. There’s no need to bring him along.”
Bai Cai: “…………” Thanks a lot!
In any case, the invitation tickets were limited, so it was okay if Brother Cai didn’t want to go. Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle were waiting for the chance.
Brother Tang waved his hand. “I’m not going, either. Old Feng, you take them.”
Chen Feng was definitely going. After all, he was the coach, and it was his responsibility to watch the game. “All right.”
So the four of them got into the van and went to the stadium.
On the way, Wei Xiao took a look at Weibo. Sure enough…
The Gossip Emperor had sent out a Weibo message, “Tonight at 10PM. Be there or be square.”
Bai Cai was a doggy thing who wanted to stay at home so that he could open up his live stream.
It was such a big event. Many anchors would provide a live commentary in order to take advantage of the popularity and traffic.
How could the Gossip Emperor miss such an opportunity?
The big brawl was also known as the big stewpot. If the Gossip Emperor didn’t appear, then the CP fans would kick up a huge fuss.
Of course, Brother Cai had a voice changer and wouldn’t reveal his real identity.
Ning Zhehan chatted with Wei Xiao.
As they chatted, Wei Xiao glanced at him, “Nervous?”
Ning Zhehan: “…………”
Wei Xiao was amused. “Even I’m not nervous. What are you nervous for?”
“It’s just…” Ning Zhehan really was nervous, “I’m afraid you’ll be abused.”
They’d all more or less come into contact with the big brawl game settings before. This competition had completely broken away from the usual MOBA pattern, and many new rules had been made. What kind of routines could be used was something that was still full of unknowns.
Previous Glory events, regardless of whether it was 5v5 or doubles or singles, were all essentially tower pushing modes. As long as the resurrection crystal wasn’t broken, players could continue to resurrect and fight.
Although every death cost a lot, it wouldn’t directly result in the end of the game.
The big brawl was different. Everyone only had one life; they would be out of the game as soon as they died.
This was the most disconcerting point for players who’d already gotten used to the old model.
They would cherish their lives more and play more cautiously, which might restrict their ability to play. They might not dare to let go and play to their fullest.
Wei Xiao was very open minded about this. “It’s fine. In any case, everyone is in the same situation.”
Ning Zhehan: “……”
Wei Xiao added, “We’re all starting from the same starting line. What’s there to be afraid of?”
The van was only so big, and everyone in the car could hear their conversation.
Chen Feng’s gaze swept over.
In terms of mentality, Wei Xiao was really strong.
When they were about to arrive, Chen Feng instructed, “Don’t be obsessed with results. Get a feel for the atmosphere of the competition.”
At first, Wei Xiao and Ning Zhehan both misunderstood the meaning of these sentences.
They thought that Chen Feng wanted them to feel the atmosphere in the big brawl. They didn’t think that he was referring to the atmosphere of the whole venue.
After getting down from the van, these two cubs who hadn’t experienced big competitions before finally understood what Chen Feng meant.
The venue in front of them that could hold over 10,000 people was very different from the regular season venues.
The regular season games were held in small venues that could only accommodate thousands of people. In front of them now was a big venue that had previously held the domestic finals.
Although this all-star game had been set up in a hurry, and the details in the configuration weren’t as good as the careful preparation that was done for the finals, this audience size that was more than ten times bigger than the regular season audience was still a shock.
Wei Xiao had gained a little fame. Many of his fans held Quiet light signs and screamed when they saw FTW’s van.
Wei Xiao was reserved. “It turns out that I’m so popular.”
Everyone: “……” Stop pretending!
When they arrived backstage, basically everyone was already there.
Asleep had flown in overnight. At this time, he’d directly curled up into a ball on the chair to sleep. The make-up artist beside him whispered, “Should I fix up his bangs?”
Cong Yi, who was beside him, said, “No need.”
The make-up artist asked again, “Eyebrows…”
Cong Yi: “No need.”
Make-up artist: “Then…”
Cong Yi: “His lips are a little dry.”
The make-up artist understood. “Okay. I’ll help him put on a layer of lip balm.”
Cong Yi: “Mm.”
Wei Xiao wasn’t surprised to see this scene at all. After exchanging greetings, he also found himself a place to sit down.
Money, Moonlit, Fu Li, and Eurostar all stared at Wei Xiao.
Wei Xiao was very calm. “Good evening, friends.”
Everyone: “……” Who the hell is friends with you!
