Chapter 247 - The Truth!

nXue Xi calmly replied, “Not bad.”
nXiao Kai: “…”
n
n
nHe opened his mouth and wanted to ask how many marks she had scored, but he was wary of Xue Xi’s face and did not dare to ask. Just as he was in a dilemma, Gao Yanchen asked, “How many marks?”
nXue Xi: “310.”
nShe had also correctly answered the additional question, so the total score was 300 plus 10 points. However, this was a little awkward, so she simply said 310 points.
nXiao Kai: “??”
n
n
nSister Xi’s results were indeed not good. Otherwise, why did she forget that the full marks were 300?
nThis random nonsense was already too much!
nXiao Kai said, “The full marks…”
nBefore he could finish speaking, Support Li tugged and glared at him. “Sister Xi is just making up a score. What are you doing, still trying to clarify?! Do you not want to give Sister Xi face?!”
n
n
nXiao Kai instantly understood what Support Li was saying, so he immediately shut his mouth and praised, “Not bad, not bad. This score is not bad!”
nGao Yanchen’s lips twitched when he saw how the drama queens were behaving. “Sister Xi, isn’t the full marks 300?”
nXue Xi: “Oh, I answered the additional question correctly and got 10 points added.”
nAfter saying that, she walked toward the training room.
nGao Yanchen peered at the shocked faces of his teammates and followed her in proudly.
nFeng Yan: … It’s Xue Xi who scored full marks. Why are you being so arrogant?
n
n
n…
nSoon, they reached the finals.
nAfter this period of practice, Xue Xi slowly understood what team spirit was. Among the team, Xiao Kai was a happy one and had a bad temper. However, because he was a child, his words always made others laugh.
nSupport Li was more focused.
nThe top-laner was relatively quiet and did not like to speak much.
nThere was no need to mention Gao Yanchen and Feng Yan. Xue Xi was more familiar with them, and this was the first time Xue Xi experienced how it felt to trust her teammates in the game.
nOld Wang did not follow them. With his arm, he could no longer play. He stayed in the team only because he wanted to take care of everyone’s emotions.
nXiao Kai, on the other hand, had to follow the coach’s instructions to watch the scene and accumulate experience from the others’ battle.
n
n
nThe group competition was held in small venues and there were fewer people. The coach was initially worried that Xue Xi would be nervous, but he later realized that it was fine.
nHowever, today was different. This was a ten-thousand-man field. It was held in the gymnasium, and one could see a patch of people in the huge area.
nThe coach looked worriedly at the two newbies. He thought that this was Xue Xi and Gao Yanchen’s first time being in such a huge place. Just as he was about to comfort them, he saw—
nXue Xi was silently reading the English vocabulary book as she followed them. She did not waste any time studying while walking.
nGao Yanchen was even less nervous. His arrogant red hair was covered by a black baseball cap. He was wearing a mask, so it was hard to tell what he looked like. His slanted eyes were filled with uninhibitedness, and he exuded a love and anticipation for the battlefield. Everything about him spoke the words: “Why aren’t you starting the competition yet? I can’t wait to get at CM.”
nThe coach: “…”
nAlright, he was worrying too much. That’s true. How could two people like them know what it meant to be nervous?
nThey entered the lounge.
nXue Xi picked up her phone and took a look. She realized that Ye Li had sent a message: “Xixi, I’m already sitting in the VIP seat with Xiang Huai. I’ll watch your exciting performance later!”
nYe Li knew that today was the grand finals and she had to rush over no matter what. Hence, Xiang Huai automatically went to the airport to fetch her and brought her to the venue.
nXue Xi’s eyes turned gentle as she replied: “Okay.”
nJust as she was about to send it out, she paused and added: “Okay. Thank you, Mom.”
nShe then placed her phone in her pocket.
n
n
nAt this moment, the CM team walked to another lounge. As they walked, they discussed. When they saw the XH team members, they looked inside.
nTao Wei walked in first and looked at Gao Yanchen and Xue Xi. By the time they entered, Xue Xi had already put on a mask. “Is this your new shooter? Oh, why are you covering yourself so tightly? Is it a new look?”
nGao Yanchen had already played in a few small group matches. The two newbies who entered XH did not show themselves when competing. This news had already been discussed online.
nThat’s right. Xue Xi was also wearing a white baseball cap and a gray mask when competing. This was Feng Yan’s request.
nFirstly, it was to prevent Gao Yanchen from being too outstanding, and secondly, Xue Xi did not want to create so much commotion on the Internet.
nAfter saying this, Tao Wei turned to look at Xue Xi. “There’s also a girl. Heh heh, you’re the mid-laner, right? But why are you wearing a mask? Let the brothers take a look! It doesn’t matter if you’re ugly…”
nThe people from XH frowned.
nJust as Feng Yan was about to speak, Xue Xi turned to him and asked, “Who is this?”
nFeng Yan replied, “CM’s jungler, Tao Wei.”
n“Oh,” Xue Xi said slowly. “A defeated opponent.”
nTao Wei: “?”
nTao Wei’s face darkened. “Wasn’t it just during the training tournament that you almost managed to turn the tables? That’s because we didn’t fight well at all! Do you really think you’re amazing?”
nXue Xi continued, “See you at the competition venue.”
nTao Wei: “…”
nTao Wei still wanted to speak, but someone had already brought them away. In order to avoid conflict between the two teams, there were also staff on site.
nAfter Tao Wei left, the top-laner stood up. “I’ll go to the washroom.”
nThe waiting time was boring, so Xue Xi decided to take out her English vocabulary book and continue reading.
nWhen she was reading the words, she saw Gao Yanchen speak to Feng Yan. “Brother, after the competition is over, you should tell me the truth!”
nTruth?
nXue Xi blinked. What truth?
nShe looked up in confusion and saw that Feng Yan was silent.
nJust as she was about to say something, a shout came from the washroom outside.
nThinking that the top-laner had just gone to the washroom, the few of them hurriedly stood up and walked out. They saw the top-laner’s face turning red while the CM team’s Tao Wei’s face had turned green.
nA staff walked over and looked at the top-laner. “eSports players can’t hit people. No matter the reason, you’re not allowed to play today!”
nThe staff directly banned the top-laner from playing. The coach followed the staff to speak up for hin. Feng Yan walked over to the top-laner and asked, “What happened?”
nWhile others were not paying attention, the top-laner had been rushed by Tao Wei, and he threw a punch at him!
nHowever, he was pulled away again.
nThe top-laner shouted angrily, “Captain, they did it on purpose!”
n“What?”
nSupporting Li was also furious!
nThe professional players and staff of XH turned to look at Tao Wei in anger. Everyone was itching to make a move, as though they were going to rush forward at any moment!
nAt this moment, Feng Yan revealed Tao Wei’s scheme in one sentence. “He purposely did it before the competition so that everyone will act up and the competition will be canceled. That way, CM will be able to clinch the championship!”
nHis words made everyone calm down.
nAlthough they were still angry, the competition came first!
nThe top-laner also came to his senses and was stunned. “But I’m banned from competing. How are you guys going to fight?!”
n
