Liu Zilang's heart skipped a beat when he heard the voice behind him. The high-spirited smile on his face instantly froze.
He carefully turned around, and the corner of his eyes couldn't help but twitch.
Zhang Xiaotong who was next to the electric bike had fallen to the ground. She looked at Liu Zilang in a daze and her face instantly turned red.
Liu Zilang quickly got off the car and helped Zhang Xiaotong who was sitting on the ground up. He preemptively said, "That … Look at you … You're already so big but you're still not careful."
If it wasn't for you screaming, I …
Zhang Xiaotong glared at Liu Zilang and snorted. She got up, grabbed her bag, and strode away.
However, after taking two steps, she slowed down.
It was obvious that the fall was not light …
Liu Zilang turned around and pushed the electric bike to catch up with Zhang Xiaotong. He said in a gentle tone, "Alright, alright. It was my fault just now. I shouldn't have screamed. Get on the car, I'll send you to school."
Zhang Xiaotong's face turned red again. She turned her head and snorted. "I don't need you to send me!
I'll walk myself! "
Liu Zilang's mouth twitched. He was about to say something.
Suddenly, he remembered the part where Zhang Xiaotong fell and immediately wisely shut his mouth.
'It seems like I can't make up for it today.'
He sighed in his heart. He could only follow Zhang Xiaotong to the bus stop from last time.
From a distance, Liu Zilang saw the loli with glasses, Jiang Yumeng who he met previously. She was also standing there. It seemed like she lived nearby.
When Jiang Yumeng saw Zhang Xiaotong, she immediately waved her hand.
Then, she looked at Liu Zilang who was leisurely riding the electric bike with a puzzled face …
'What's going on?'
When they arrived at the bus stop, Liu Zilang said to Jiang Yumeng with a serious face, "Comrade Yumeng, we entrust our Xiaotong-chan to you!
Please be sure to send her to school! "
Jiang Yumeng blinked and looked at Liu Zilang in confusion.
"Oh right!
Xiaotong just came from … "
Just as Liu Zilang said that, Zhang Xiaotong suddenly snorted.
He turned his head and saw the little girl staring at him fiercely.
She looked like she would rush up and bite him if he dared to say anything.
Seeing this, Liu Zilang's strong desire to live quickly brought him back to his senses. He immediately changed his words. "Xiaotong just came out from home. Hmm, I'll be leaving first. You guys chat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Zilang immediately got on his electric motorcycle.
Time to slip away!
.....
At noon.
Liu Zilang rushed to 4AM's clubhouse in Jianghai during lunchtime. GodV and the others had just ordered a table full of takeaway food in the clubhouse's restaurant.
GodV immediately greeted Liu Zilang with a smile when he saw him. "What a coincidence, hehe. Let's sit down and eat together."
"What coincidence?
I remember the last time you ordered takeout … "Liu Zilang suddenly stopped talking.
"…" GodV's mouth twitched.
At this moment, the "Asia's Second Commander", Long Shenjue, walked over with a beer belly and an opaque thermos cup in his hand.
Liu Zilang glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. Long Shenjue immediately covered the lid tightly.
Although they had not known each other for a long time, he was familiar with Liu Zilang's cheeky personality. If Liu Zilang saw it, he might say something.
Then, Long Shenjue coughed dryly. "That's great. Since you're here, let's eat together. I'll also tell you about the teams that will be participating in the competition this afternoon."
"How can I accept this?"
As Liu Zilang spoke, he dragged an eSports chair over from the side. He huffed and puffed as he walked to the glass coffee table that was filled with food. He sniffed and said, "Smells so good!"
Cpt smiled as he passed him a bento box.
Liu Zilang quickly took it with both hands. "Thanks, eat!
Eat!
Don't just stand there. "
"…" The others' eyes twitched again.
"Oh right."
Liu Zilang who was sitting on the chair swayed left and right. He could not help but ask, "What brand is this eSports chair? It's quite spacious."
"Proud Wind!" Aluka immediately said.
Then, he added, "The Proud Wind Competitive Chair is so spacious that even pigs can sit on it."
"Ahem ahem ahem …" GodV who was busy eating almost choked when he heard this.
He quickly opened a bottle of mineral water and took a gulp. "Aluka, you're starting already?"
"I'm just joking!
Haha. "Aluka laughed and waved his hand.
"Ahem ahem, let's get down to business." Long Shenjue put down his thermos flask and picked up a bowl of fried rice noodles from the coffee table.
He said as he ate, "There are a total of five teams from Hua Xia participating in the Asia Qualifier this afternoon. They are Se7en, IG, Tyloo, and IFTY. There are also us, 4AM. Out of the twenty-four participating teams in Asia, only three will be able to qualify for the World Championship. The competition will be quite intense, so everyone must give it their all."
"Wait, there are five participating teams from Hua Xia in the Asia Qualifier?" Liu Zilang was slightly surprised.
Long Shenjue nodded. "Yes, four from Korea, three from Japan, and a few from Southeast Asia."
Liu Zilang nodded thoughtfully. Then, he picked up the chicken drumstick that was in front of Long Shenjue with his chopsticks.
.....
It was three o 'clock in the afternoon at Jianghai Stadium.
Tencent was very experienced in organizing large-scale offline tournaments. The tickets for the qualifier had been sold out half a month ago.
At this moment, there were several long queues at the entrance of the stadium. At a glance, it was a dense crowd.
Many of the spectators who came to watch the tournament were in groups of twos and threes. They were eagerly discussing the upcoming international PUBG tournament.
After Liu Zilang and the others arrived by car, they quickly entered the stadium through the special passageway for the players to connect to the equipment for the afternoon's competition.
Due to the unique nature of PUBG, the center of Jianghai Stadium had been set up to simulate the cabin environment. There were a total of three rows, and each row had eight sets of equipment for the twenty-four participating teams.
Moreover, the tables placed by the equipment could be moved. This prevented teams from seeing each other's screens if they were sitting too close to each other in a solo match.
Liu Zilang and GodV entered the stadium with Long Shenjue to verify their identities. Then, they were led by the staff to their designated location. The four of them then started to connect to the peripherals.
Liu Zilang's backpack had a set of keyboard and mouse that he had taken from 4AM's base. After connecting to the peripherals, he quickly finished adjusting it.
Next up was the live stream.
Since the Asia Qualifier was the first international tournament, Tencent allowed the players to livestream during the tournament in order to increase the tournament's influence and attention. However, there were strict requirements on the delay and sound settings.
At that moment, there was a Korean team sitting not far away from 4AM. They had been playing Smida, Smida. The other team seemed to be a Thai team based on the logo on their uniform.
After Liu Zilang finished adjusting the mouse, he looked left and right. Suddenly, he was stunned.
On the player's seat not far away from him, a young lady was also looking at him in shock …
