Here's a handy dandy link.

Playing Fish Trapped in Secret Room
Book 1: The Storm is Coming
Chapter 1
Behind her, a new member explained the situation in a low voice, “Solo’s apprentice used an alternate id to play ranked games. He got into a minor dispute with someone and they agreed to solve it with a grievance round. In the beginning, it seemed like a joke, but we unexpectedly lost the first game. Since everyone happened to be bored here, we’re taking turns playing one by one. We have some wins and losses up to now, 3 to 7.”
“3 to 7? And we’re the 7?”
“Yeah, we’re 7. If we lost more than we won, then we better simply stop and commit suicide right now as an apology.” Xiaoduo made a face, but seemed quite relaxed.
So, it was a grievance round between SP players and someone?
“Whose turn is it now?” She asked.
“The whole ME team already had their turns, and the IG team is almost done. If we continue to play, probably the bosses will give it a try too.”
ME and IG had already played?
Both these teams had won the Asian Tournament championship and were in the top three of various international competitions…...In other words, these two were considered the best even in the SP club.
Needless to say, right now they must have run into professional players.
Ai Qing moved her eyes away from the screens and glanced at the man across the dining table from her. Solo still wore a simple, pure white, long-sleeved polo shirt. With one hand inside his pants’ pocket as usual, he was quietly talking with other members around him.
He sensed her gaze and looked back at her. “Do you feel it strange that we’re paying so much attention to this grievance round?”
“Are the opponents all professional players?”
“Almost, “ Solo chuckled. “You may know some of them.”
Someone she knew?
She knew too many professional players.
“It was Grunt.”
Solo gave her a name.
Grunt.
He was a dangerous player who rose to fame by playing Starcraft 2. From the beginning of this year until now, he had won more than 800,000 RMB personal award prizes.
And this man had some connections with Ai Qing.
He almost became Ai Qing’s older twin sister’s boyfriend.
Just almost.
Of course, the point was not about small gossip.
Grunt had not signed with any club after he became famous. SP got in touch with him two months ago, but unfortunately it did not work out. But just five days ago, he suddenly announced that he had joined a very young club------K&K.
A new club founded in the spring last year, but they had developed very fast. They had competed with SP players in several tournaments. They won one championship and three runners-up. In the meantime, they poached three SP players to join them this summer, offering them extremely high pay.
And now, with K&K recruiting Grunt, they intention to compete against SP was obvious.
