Chapter 1279: End Game (19)
When Qiao Lian heard this name, her pupils shrank back at once.
She turned around and looked at the group of student competitors. Then she walked up to them and said, “What did you say was the name of the person who was playing against you?”
One of them looked up. When he saw that it was a very pretty girl asking him the question, he happily replied, “They’re a group of players from country H, called Pad, Aid, Pit and also there was one called…”
When Qiao Lian heard this combination of names, her pupils shrank. Her head snapped up immediately to look straight at Shen Liangchuan.
These nicknames were too familiar.
Clearly, these people were the same team from country H that they had played against in high school.
At the time, she and Shen Liangchuan had taken part in a team competition.
Their team had well-deservingly clinched the top place.
However, the runners-up weren’t convinced of their loss and turned provocative.
Qiao Lian’s team was subject to some very nasty treatment by the team from country H, but eventually they discovered that the latter team had actually used professional players during the match.
There was a member in Qiao Lian’s team who knew someone from that team, so he had inquired into that matter.
Finally, the person from that team had revealed, “Our team was bought over by someone in country H, so many of us are not in control of our own accounts. Many of us have left the team.”
Hence, the few players who had taken part in the competition had not even been part of the original team.
They were professional gamers in country H.
And the player with the handle Pad was none other than King himself.
What was he trying to do?
He had done nasty things to PC Team in the competition, and he had made nasty remarks about Chinese professional teams in general. Now he was about to further glorify himself at the expense of these students?
At this thought, Qiao Lian frowned and walked over to take a look. Then she realized that among the college students, there was one who happened to be a well-known eSports caster.
This caster had more than a million fans who followed his livestream.
If in such a livestream King led his team to crush these students, then it would just reinforce the talks of the Chinese players being inferior to the players of country H.
Qiao Lian narrowed her eyes.
Why was King trying to cause trouble everywhere?!
This was simply despicable-
In the meantime, these students had no clue, thinking that the people they were up against were diamond level players from country H. They were completely unaware of whom they were facing.
Qiao Lian frowned and said immediately, “You can’t play this match!”
One of the students immediately looked up when he heard this and asked, “Why?”
Qiao Lian wanted to tell them that Pad was in fact King, but who would believe her?
For a moment, she fell silent. Then one of the students spoke up, “I hope you’re not thinking that we will lose? You underestimate us! We’ve been playing Lot for many years, beating fresh diamond players wouldn’t be a problem for us.”
“That’s right. Besides, this has to do with pride. If we bow out before even playing, it would be so embarassing.”
“Indeed. This match has to be played, and it has to be played beautifully for the sake of our nation!”
“Yes, to make our nation proud!”
This group of second-year students was completely unaware that they had walked right into the lion’s lair. They went ahead, driven by their passion and enthusiasm.
“Everyone, stay alert, the game is starting. Let’s all do our best!”
With these words, the match began.
