The opening game was over. Fu Li sent Wei Xiao a message the next day, “When the big brawl replay is released, I’ll sort out the data and send it over to you.”
Wei Xiao replied, “No rush, no rush, I believe Captain Fu.”
Fu Li: “……” Ha. If you really believed me, you wouldn’t have taken a screenshot!
A big brawl with 100 people fighting had to be different from an ordinary team competition.
The multiview video broadcast had to be integrated together, and the game organizers had to put together a collection of some of the most eye-catching operations in order to draw another round of traffic, so the teams that wanted to do replay reviews would have to wait a few days.
Wei Xiao wasn’t in a hurry. He and Lu Feng had already agreed to watch the replay together after he came back.
When it came to ten light arcs and other such things, he wanted to praise Lu Feng about it again, to his face!
Obviously Wei Little Xiao had already completely forgotten about what had happened in the Moonlight Wetland.
At 8PM on Thursday night, the venue for the competition filled up early.
The residual enthusiasm from the opening game was still there, and everyone was very excited to see FTW. They had stopped being so worried about whether or not Close was there or not a long time ago.
FTW games?
They came to watch Quiet go wild!
Wei Xiao’s original popularity hadn’t been low, and now, there were even more support groups. Light signs were everywhere, and there were a lot of love confessions.
The financing side saw the potential for money, and most of the FTW fan merchandise sold outside was related to Quiet.
Due to his fierce words during the opening game, his fans had given him a new favorite nickname––the wolfish and tiger-like Little Lunatic Wei.
There was a group of fans who’d made a very cute version of it; the front was a chibi version of Wei Xiao, with tiger ears and big cat paws, howling and whining fiercely, and the back was a chibi version of him with a big, wagging gray wolf tail that was about to shake its way up to the sky!
It was both a tiger and a wolf, very thoughtful.
There were many Q fangirls with tiger ears that would light up when they shook their heads, making a large, illuminated ‘Q’ appear over their heads. It was very cute.
Unfortunately, Wei Xiao was a little far away from the audience and couldn’t see it clearly.
FTW and RR were old rivals. They didn’t bother with polite words when they met. They just had to fight and be done with it.
On FTW’s side, Wei Xiao dropped a series of fierce words. Yep, it was for the three little ones.
“This is the last game of our regular season.”
Little Ning: “Yes, yes, yes.”
Wei Xiao: “Do you know what this means?”
Brother Cai really wanted to roll his eyes.
Little Ning rushed to answer first, “First place in the group!”
Wei Xiao nodded, “And?”
Little Ning cheered, “The captain is coming back!”
Grandmaster Wei’s mouth curved. “Yes, and?”
Little Ning: “???” He was a little stuck.
Wei Xiao looked at Yue Wenle, who was quietly gnawing on chips to the side. “You answer.”
Old Yue: “……”
Wei Xiao shot Bai Cai a glance. Bai Cai felt the threat and acted as though he would snatch away the chips, causing Yue Wenle to speak up immediately, “Last time, we lost to RR, so this time, we can’t lose!”
Wei Xiao nodded, but he still continued asking, “And?”
What else could there be?
Even Bai Cai was a little confused at this time.
Was there any other meaning to this game?
The last game in the regular season. They’d take first place in their group if they won, and they could stand up straight and puff up their chests when they welcomed their captain back to the team, and get even for past regrets…
What else was there besides all that?
His teammates were all dazed. Quiet sighed.
Wei Xiao highlighted the key point. “This is Brother Tang’s last game.”
This one sentence shocked the three little ones.
Chen Feng and Tang Chen, who’d just arrived at the entrance of the lounge, stopped walking.
Wei Xiao’s attitude was serious for once, and his words went straight to the softest place in people’s hearts, “Brother Tang has persisted for us for so long, so this game is one that we must win.”
The three little ones had all their passion inspired, “We must win!”
“We have to win beautifully!”
“Yes, we have to make it a wonderful win.”
“We can’t let Brother Tang have any regrets!”
“Uh-huh! No regrets!”
The steadfast Tang Chen, who was still standing outside, felt his eyes heat up.
Chen Feng’s heart also felt a little sore when he heard this.
Wei Xiao was the craziest player he’d ever met, but he was also the softest player he’d ever met.
He was such a strange child, it was no wonder Lu Feng kept him at the tip of his heart.
When they went up onto the court, even the audience could feel FTW’s momentum.
The commentators also said, “It’s the last game. It seems that FTW places a lot of importance on winning this game.”
“Close is about to return. They must want to present their captain with a perfect result.”
“Of course, RR isn’t weak either. It seems that it will be a tough fight tonight.”
“Let’s see who the title of first place in the group will go to!”
At the start of the game, RR instantly banned the shadow thief, and FTW fought tooth for tooth, banning the immortal warlock.
Tang Chen, who never spoke during the BP segment, spoke up, “Get me the space-time knight.”
FTW’s four little ones were stunned for a moment.
Chen Feng laughed briefly. “Okay.”
Wei Xiao was immediately fired up. “I’ll take the berserker thief!”
Ning Zhehan sat up straight as well. “Spirit mage!”
Yue Wenle: “Frost hunter.”
Brother Cai took a tanky support. “Giant shaman.”
Chen Feng: “You must be dreaming. We’ll see what RR takes.”
It was unknown if RR was taking them lightly, or if they hadn’t expected FTW to take the space-time knight again, so they actually released quite a few of the positions.
At the end of the day, except for Brother Cai who switched to the earth priest, everyone else got what they wanted.
The space-time knight…
This talent, which had helped FTW make a come-back and turn things around during the regular season, stunned the audience for half a second when it appeared.
Immediately after, rounds of applause burst out as everyone understood.
The commentator woke up as well, “This game…”
This game was God Tang’s curtain call.
This game would be Tang Chen’s last battle. Tang Chen, who’d guarded FTW during all its ups and downs.
Tang Chen, who’d witnessed the age of the Team of Gods and also experienced FTW’s lowest point. He’d held the world championship cup three years ago and had also seen the empty ruins of FTW.
He wasn’t as dazzling as Close nor was he a mastermind like Chen Feng. He was the substitute player in the Team of Gods who’d had no chance to play, and he was the solid support for the new FTW. He was the veteran who would retire after winning the domestic championship due to his declining state, and he was also the Brother Tang who supported four little ones in the face of danger after Close left the team!
The new FTW––
There were the twin stars, Close and Quiet.
Ning Zhehan and Yue Wenle, who were on the rise.
Bai Cai, who’d regained his enthusiasm and was holding up the support beam.
Only Tang Chen had been ignored, forgotten and overlooked by many people.
But his teammates remembered.
All he’d done, everything he’d sacrificed, and all of his sweat had been imprinted onto FTW’s team emblem.
The black and white double swords crossed where the words FTW was carved out in the center.
For the win.
For the sake of victory, for the sake of everyone’s victory!
In this game, FTW played extremely well.
Wei Xiao’s berserker thief led the rhythm of the game up to the heavens, and Ning Zhehan changed up his old timid style with a spirit mage that was both treacherous and unpredictable, making Moonlit’s nerves tense up. Bai Cai and Yue Wenle also played out a perfect cooperation on the bottom lane. The developed frost hunter became the core of the team in the later stages.
This time, Tang Chen’s space-time knight didn’t have to resurrect four dead teammates on the spot like he’d done when they played against 3U.
Because it wasn’t necessary.
His teammates wouldn’t fall. They were fighting for him.
His teammates used their strength to tell him: We can do it, we’re able to do it, please rest assured.
The game was over.
FTW won against RR with an absolutely crushing score.
When he took off the headset, the rims of Tang Chen’s eyes were red.
Every member of the audience who saw this scene also felt their eyes grow red with emotion. The old fans who’d followed FTW all the way to the present even started crying directly.
Until someone yelled, “Don’t cry, Brother Tang! FTW’s future is promising!”
After that, someone followed suit and yelled, “Yeah, FTW’s future is promising!”
After three years of wind and rain, new branches had emerged from the empty ruins.
The current FTW really had a promising future.
Lu Feng, who’d finished packing up, turned off the live broadcast and sent out a Weibo post––
I’m back.
