nGao Yanchen stared blankly at Feng Yan and recalled that he had just spoken to his grandfather…

nGao Yanchen could not help but recall that since he was young, his grandfather had never liked him showing up on the Internet. The Gao family had so many assets, and his grandfather had never shown any intention of letting him inherit them.

n

n

nGrandpa had never forced him to study and never made him participate in all kinds of competitions. With his grandpa, it had always been “you should just play around happily.” Back then, when he wanted to enter an eSports club, Grandpa had never let him…

nThere was also one time when he was discovered by a scout, who asked if he wanted to enter the entertainment industry. His grandfather had also chased that scout away.

nBin City was filled with rumors of his arrogance, but there was no picture of him on the internet.

nGrandpa had always said that he just had to live happily.

n

n

nAt that time, he felt that his grandfather doted on him the most. It was because his parents were in a car accident and his grandfather only had one kin left. Hence, his life and happiness were more important than anything else.

nAs for Feng Yan…

nAt this moment, he suddenly recalled that five years ago, when he and Feng Yan did not yet have a name in the POG game, they had rushed to the top of the national server. After becoming the Demon King and the Little Demon, he wanted to enter the eSports scene and make a name for himself.

nFeng Yan agreed and was happy.

n

n

nThe two of them set up a team together. Just as they were about to start their journey, Feng Yan suddenly said that he was still young and excluded him.

nFeng Yan used his trust and reliance back then to push him away personally, making him hate Feng Yan for five years!

nIt turned out that it was because of this!

nGao Yanchen’s large eyes were filled with shock and surprise. He stared at Feng Yan in disbelief and mumbled, “Why?”

nWhy would he die if he exposed his face?

nFeng Yan clenched his jaw and smiled bitterly. “The reason is that I won’t tell you the truth.”

n

n

nHe wanted to tell him that he could not show his face in front of the public. Otherwise, he would die. This matter was simple, but what about after that? Why? This was the reason why he brought him into a desperate situation and shifted his life path!

nAt least!

nFeng Yan could not decide Gao Yanchen’s life.

nGao Yanchen’s eyes turned red.

nHe had always been a local tyrant in Bin City. He was the leader of the Roaring Flame Society and protected its members. However, at this moment, he realized that he was actually the one being protected!

nHe rubbed his head, turned around, and punched the wall fiercely. He then turned to look at Feng Yan. “Brother, tell me why? I’m already 18 years old!”

nFeng Yan stared at him.

nFive years ago, Xiao Chen was still a little radish.

n

n

nHe was a young man when he was 13 years old. Now that he had grown up, he was almost taller than him.

nFeng Yan lowered his eyes and suddenly changed the topic. “Do you want to participate in the competition?”

nGao Yanchen paused and nodded. “Of course.”

nSince they had already spoken, Feng Yan no longer needed to hide anything. “Sure, but I request you to wear a mask and a baseball cap. You’re not allowed to show your face.”

nGao Yanchen nodded with reddened eyes.

nFeng Yan stared at him for a while, then patted his shoulder. “Good luck.”

nGao Yanchen looked at Feng Yan and said stubbornly, “Tell me the reason after we win the fourth championship cup.”

nFeng Yan was stunned.

nGao Yanchen smiled. “Brother, you know me well.”

nBecause he knew that he could not tolerate grit in his eyes, Feng Yan had held it in for five years and did not say anything about the eSports problem that could be resolved as long as he covered his face up.

nBecause he knew that if he said it, Gao Yanchen would ask for the whole story.

nBut now, it was still exposed.

nIf he did not say it, Gao Yanchen might do something even more crazy…

n

n

nWhile Feng Yan was thinking, Gao Yanchen raised an eyebrow and said, “If you don’t tell me, I’ll start a live-stream.”

nFeng Yan sighed. “Alright.”

nEveryone should choose how to live their own lives.

nGao Yanchen was 18 years old and was about to grow up…

nFeng Yan’s heart felt heavy as though a stone had crushed it. With this thought in mind, he and Gao Yanchen returned to the training room.

nFeng Yan’s actions earlier frightened everyone.

nAt this moment, as soon as the two entered, the training room fell silent.

nFeng Yan still did not speak, but Gao Yanchen took a step forward. He grinned and said arrogantly, “Hello, everyone. I am your new boss and also your first shooter. XH, Loneliness.”

nStanding behind him, Feng Yan stared at him. When he heard the word loneliness, he suddenly realized that his and Grandpa Feng’s protection of Xiao Chen had indeed pushed him into a lonely place.

nSomeone like him might have been an eagle from the start and should not have been placed in a chicken’s nest to be protected…

n“Alright!” Support Li was the first to speak. “Then let’s have five rows now! Sister Xi, are you alright?”

nXue Xi looked at Little Flame and smiled. “No problem.”

nShe liked to fight alongside Little Flame.

nHowever—

n“Wait a moment.”

nXue Xi suddenly ran upstairs. After a while, she carried a stack of papers and placed it beside her computer.

nEveryone: “?”

nAfter putting it down, Xue Xi took out a pen and said, “Let’s start.”

nEveryone: “…”

nAs their accounts were already in the national server, it was very difficult for them to match up to each other in a five row. Every match would take at least two minutes.

nWhile she was waiting, Xue Xi opened the math paper and answered a question.

nSeeing this, everyone: “…”

nXiao Kai gulped. “Sister Xi, are you sitting for the monthly examination soon?”

n“No,” Xue Xi replied blandly. “The Math Olympiad is about to begin.”

nXiao Kai was stunned. “What?”

nWhat the hell? Mathematical Olympiad?

nUsually, those who played eSports would take a break or withdraw from school midway. This was the first time he had seen someone studying while playing games!

nXue Xi rarely died in games. After all, her sense of positioning was very good.

nHowever!

nOccasionally, when it came to team battles, she would sell it more deeply. After dying, she could immediately do a few multiple-choice questions during the thirty seconds before she was revived.

nXiao Kai: “…”

nFor some unknown reason, seeing Sister Xi working so hard on her questions made him suddenly want to go back to school and study hard!

n…

nA victory comeback on the internet made XH’s depressed and disappointed fans feel hope again.

nFollowing that, XH did not disappoint the fans!

nThe XH had been injected with fresh blood. XH, Loneliness and XH, Learn had performed exceptionally well. They directly entered the finals from the dense group competition!

nEach group would produce two teams to enter the top four, followed by the national finals.

nThat day, Xue Xi requested for leave from Feng Yan and returned to the Golden Autumn Camp to take part in the examination.

nJust as she arrived at the Golden Autumn Camp, she saw Fan Han rush over. His expression was solemn. “Xue Xi, how can you not be serious about the Math Olympiad? Studying is like going against the current. If you don’t actively advance, you will retreat. Let’s see how many marks you will get in this examination!”
