You’re Beautiful When You Smile

Chapter 176 Part 2

Tong Yao: “I’ve seen the comparison video of the team before and now. YQCB used to lose all the time because they were very passive. They wouldn’t actively fight for resources and eventually fell behind. Now, YQCB’s the one among all the LPL teams that truly plays in LPL style-- --They’re aggressive, unafraid of initiating fights. They target the enemy right from the start, ignoring the fact that League of Legends is actually a tower destroying game……”

Tong Yao took a look at Jinyang with a smile: “RP is a new team formed by players who went back to Korea from the LPL. You can still see traces of the LPL play style in them. Do you know what they’re afraid of the most now?”

Lu Sicheng: “Actually, YQCB’s pretty lucky in drawing lots.”

Tong Yao: “I think so too.”

Jinyang looked very confused. The expression on her face seemed to ask: What are you talking about?

However, she found out why very quickly-- --

YQCB lost the first round of the match. Their past experience of coming back from being a relegation team made the players tough under pressure. Very quickly, they found their tempo in the second round and won the next three rounds. In the end, they defeated RP 3 to 1 and qualified for the semi-finals. The team they would be facing turned out to be LCS’s G4!

When YQCB destroyed RP’s base in the fourth round, Tong Yao stuffed her cell phone into Lu Sicheng’s hand so he could show her the most popular esports forum among Korean fans. Lu Sicheng reluctantly searched the forums for her and stuffed the phone back into her hand. Tong Yao grabbed the phone and carefully read the posts from top to bottom-- --

Lu Sicheng: “What are you looking at? You don’t even read Korean.”

Tong Yao: “But I can understand all the question marks over the whole screen.”

Tong Yao: “Their embarrassment and sudden quietness are seeping through the screen.”

Lu Sicheng: “......”

Tong Yao: “What?”

Lu Sicheng: “It’s nothing. I just love to see your optimism as you enjoy other people’s misery.”

YQCB’s captain, Liangsheng, was interviewed after the match-- --Obviously he knew how his team and LPL had been sneered at by the Koreans before the match. The host seemed used to seeing this sort of thing and asked directly whether Liangsheng knew about it. Liangsheng didn’t give a straight answer but bashfully smiled and said: “I wasn’t paying attention. Before this match, I was busy studying Team G4, the team we’re going to meet at the semi-finals. They’re quite strong after all.”

He had skillfully returned the insult.

Suddenly, the audience burst into laughter and whistling.

Tong Yao: “I can have a good night's sleep tonight.”

Lu Sicheng lifted his hand to pat her head.

……

The hostile atmosphere continued to spread as the quarter-finals were unfolding.

The friendship and harmony among various regions during the group matches had disappeared.

The news came from the second day of the quarter-finals that YQCB had qualified for the semi-finals was uplifting to the fans back home.

That night back in China, the gloomy atmosphere after the CK’s elimination from the day before had completely dissipated. The pressure on ZGDX players had also lessened…… They went back to the hotel in a good mood. After eating a good dinner, they went to one of their rooms to chat. Tong Yao heard that one of the RP players who had a good reputation while playing in the LPL came to apologize to the YQCB players. However, she didn’t see it herself, and so she didn’t know whether it was true or not.
