“Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang! They won!” Qin Ting shouted, his voice slightly hoarse, but there was no mistaking the elation in his voice.
Even though Yang Ying, Luocheng, and the rest couldn’t hear him, he had been encouraging the crowd since the beginning of the broadcast and had not stopped cheering as loud as he could for their team since then.
However, they had won. That was the most important thing!
The basketball and football club had always been the most popular clubs in the university, but no matter how jealous and unwilling they were to admit it, when they saw the crowd cheering for the E-sports club, a sense of shame and humiliation overcame them.
This was especially so for the manager in charge of the university’s clubs—Wang Lang, his eyes were as sharp as a knife.
“Isn’t Zhejiang University’s e-sports team very strong?” Wang Lang said, clearly uncomfortable.
“Who…who expected them to actually win this match…”
Zhejiang University had placed second in the last national league, and they had been defeated. Presumably, it wasn’t only out of the expectation of the two universities watching this match. The match videos would definitely be uploaded onto the net soon, and more people would be shocked!
“Get ready to meet them at the gates!” Mr. Fang said, his face full of smiles.
These kids didn’t let anyone down!
Mr. Fang could already imagine the pinched expression on the Head of Department! This guy was trying to persuade the Dean over tea to prevent the E-sports club from playing with their best members!
You need to understand, if Luocheng was really banned from taking part in the competition, the university’s honor would truly be lost!
“They will return once they’re done with the match, come on, let’s raise the flag and welcome them back!”
Mr. Fang took the lead, immediately getting the Arts Club members to prepare a welcoming committee.
They had used their own money to participate in the match, but they were coming back with the university’s honor. When they were facing such a strong opponent, all they could do was watch over them silently. Now that they were triumphant, the only thing they could do in return was to give them the best welcome back!

“No matter how it is, this has been an extremely exciting match. Such a pity that this is where we, Zhejiang University, stop, and will be unable to move toward the championship. Congratulations to our guest—Shanghai University, for winning this match and proceeding into the quarter-finals.”
“We are amazed by the strength of Shanghai University, and I think, even with the top eight teams competing, it would be hard pressed to stop them from stepping into the top four. Although our Zhejiang University has lost, let us silently support this rising team—Shanghai University, and hope that they make it to the finals!”
The host spoke with emotions, and it slightly eased the disbelieving and disappointed atmosphere of the Zhejiang University students in attendance. A few minutes ago, the entire community area had a face of disbelief and shock all over.
They had never expected that Zhejiang University would lose…
This outcome came out of the blue, and the five members of Zhejiang University were struck dumb by it.
They stood up from their seats, watching the ecstatic SHU team as they cheered and celebrated.
They had actually lost.
Their glory for placing second in the previous nationals, with the ability to be on par with Team Revelation’s reserve team, and they had lost to Shanghai University.
What was the reason?
How could they have lost?
Their strength was not inferior to SHU at all…
“Captain…” Ke Shaoying spoke, not really knowing what to say as he looked at Ceng Feilong.
“Captain.” Qiming was boiling with rage.
Feilong stared at his team for the longest time, and finally, his gaze landed on Luocheng.
He understood very well that the one who played the Support was this guy, who looked a bit sloppy and lazy…
Just, where was this Godlike player from!
He had managed to lead a team that wasn’t even on par with a third rate professional team into defeating a team as strong as theirs, who was on par with a professional team!
Why was it that after so long in the E-sports circle, Feilong had never seen a Support play as unconventionally as this guy from SHU…
“Their Support probably has a good team backing him,” Feilong uttered slowly, after a long moment of silence.
“What backing?” Shaoying spat as he looked away.
He didn’t find anything special about Luocheng, he was just a freshman entering university.
“I don’t know, we’ll have to ask Baifeng and the rest of them. Once Baifeng comes back, they’ll watch our match recordings. They can probably then tell who this guy actually is.” Feilong replied.
“Captain, they were just lucky. It’s only because we didn’t manage to farm…” Qiming said, clearly unhappy.
“If you are still obsessed with it, then I will just say that you are a joke. Even Siyong from Fudan University felt threatened by that Support from SHU, and I have told you countless times, to not underestimate him. You made the same mistake, it looks like we need to change our ADC of the team.” Feilong said coldly as he gave a scornful glance at Qiming.
Shaoying and the rest of the team were stunned at the information, to think that this Support was a threat to Lin Siyong of Fudan University, and they all clearly understood the strength of Siyong!
Qiming was speechless, he had never expected to be stripped of his ADC position like this!

“You guys…you guys were so cool out there!”
Li Meiqi who was wearing a tight fitting sweater excitedly gave each of the SHU starter team members a hug, making the surrounding members envious until they gritted their teeth.
When it came to Luocheng’s turn, Meiqi’s hug became fiercer and longer, her lips beside his ear, “Little junior, I’m liking you more and more!”
Luocheng blushed terribly, sneaking a peek at Qianqian who was beside him. Her cheeks had puffed up dangerously, this girl was hugging her boyfriend in front of her, and she even dared to say these kinds of things! She really didn’t want to live another day!
Having said that, although Qianqian was a student in Zhejiang University, she had hoped that Luocheng and Yang Ying would win. Alright, she admitted that she was a petty girl!
As expected, Luocheng was still eye-catching, relying on his strength to pull the team to victory!
“Hey hey, Mr. Fang, Qin Ting, and a lot of the students are waiting for us to return to the university. I heard that they’re preparing a grand celebration for us!” Jian Feng shouted excitedly as he ran toward them.
“Pack up and let’s go back!” Yang Ying was suddenly impatient to return.
Initially, Shanghai University had thought that this was a lost match and they would return immediately after it. They had even bought their return tickets already.
Now that they had won, all the more reason for them to hurry back. This match was one of the most eye-catching in all of Shanghai University’s history, and the whole community area was filled to the brim!
They really wanted to see it for themselves!
