Chapter 15: Revenge on RNG! If it's them? I'll definitely take them down! ! [Seeking monthly tickets]
Listening to the voice on the other end of the phone, where Lu Yiming changed his words without blushing or beating his heart, White Crescent was stunned, marveling at how quickly the other party changed his expression.
While he couldn't help laughing, he still told the other party his address and hung up the phone.
Ah Shui was so happy that he was bent over with laughter. Seeing the big star in front of him being so casual, the head coach Bai Yueya was immediately upset. "How dare you laugh? Why do I always feel like I was fooled by you? I don't think that guy is very talented."
Ah Shui gave a different opinion and said:
"I'm not fooled. In a sense, this is also considered a top-level pull, isn't it? In martial arts novels, a true master, after practicing Kung Fu to a certain level, can use it in all aspects. You see, he has already integrated pull into his life. In a sense, this boy's talent is immeasurable!"
"If you use your energy instead of talking nonsense to think more about how the opponent's jungler will catch you, maybe we will win the finals." White Crescent said resentfully.
This one sentence immediately made the optimistic Ah Shui speechless.
……
When Li arrived at the TES base, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon. The person who greeted him at the door was A Shui, who was wearing the TES team uniform. Lu Yiming was flattered by the other party's serious treatment.
"Hey, buddy!" Yu Wenbo waved at him from afar, "You are Lu Yiming, right?"
"Yes." Lu Yiming replied, and then was taken by A Shui into the elevator of the base's office building.
The infrastructure of Topsports' training base is very complete. Even when he arrived at the training hall of Team 1 on the third floor, Lu Yiming felt that the environment was more luxurious than that of RNG. He was shocked. After all, it was invested by the most powerful sponsor in the country and was willing to invest in this aspect.
"You're really good at playing that sheep. After playing professionally for so long, this is the first time I've been killed instantly by a sheep with full health. After the game, I checked your record. At that time, I was curious about why you were so popular in RNG when you were so strong in rank. Later, I heard that you were fired. It happened that our top lane had a big problem this season, and the club wanted to consider changing the lineup, so I recommended you to the coach."
"Ya Ya will arrange a tryout for you later, you have to perform well!"
As Ah Shui walked, he explained to Lu Yiming.
Hearing this, it suddenly dawned on him. Lu Yiming had been curious about how he had been noticed by the famous domestic team Top Esports, but it turned out that it all started from a high-ranking ranking match on the Korean server?
"How can you be so sure that you can do it?" Lu Yiming felt that A Shui was easy to talk to. As a popular star in LPL, he was surprisingly approachable to a nobody like him. The two of them had not even spoken a word to each other before, but he was introduced to TES by the other party just because of a ranking game.
Even Lu Yiming found it unbelievable.
"Whether it works or not depends on your performance. Anyway, I believe in my own judgment." Ah Shui said nonchalantly. Seeing that Lu Yiming looked serious, he thought for a moment and said seriously, "But there is one thing I can relate to. When I was a broadcaster, there was a comment that had a particularly deep impact on me!"
"That fan said, the anchor is so good, why doesn't he become a professional anchor and become famous, but is content to stay here and be a small anchor?"
"Because of this sentence, I plunged into the professional circle!"
"Brother, I think your level is not bad at this age. And you obviously didn't perform at your true level in your only debut with RNG. You must be very unwilling to accept this. You want a chance to prove yourself, right?"
Lu Yiming didn't expect that the person who understood him best was a stranger who had no connection with him at all.
He smiled faintly and said, "Aren't you afraid that your brother is really incompetent?"
"How should I put it? It's the feeling between strong people, you know?" Ah Shui thought clearly and said with a smile: "I think you have something, but if you really can't get it, it's okay, just think of it as making friends."
"I won't let you down!" Lu Yiming looked rare and firm.
At this time, White Crescent Moon came over and said faintly, "You are the one who thinks that our TES was eliminated because our coach is not strong enough, right?"
"The fall of Shu Han is not the general's fault." Lu Yiming said seriously.
Ah Shui was so amused that he laughed out loud, saying that this guy really understood the art of language.
White Crescent Moon couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "A Shui highly recommended you to me, and I heard that your relationship with Bin was very strained when you were in RNG. Today's trial training may be very difficult for you, you must be prepared!"
"I've never been afraid of strong winds and waves." Lu Yiming said disdainfully.
But what does the other party mean when he mentions Bin?
White Crescent Moon was surprised: "Why?"
"The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish. The stronger the opponent, my price will naturally go up after I win!" Now that Lu Yiming has many trump cards, he is quite confident in his own strength.
"Good boy, you have guts!" White Crescent exclaimed, revealing, "Originally, at the request of the league, we had to play a few hours of training matches with RNG at night to help them keep their touch for the subsequent MSI. This is actually quite annoying, but since the LPL league has asked for this, we have to give them face."
"Now that you're here, they'll be your opponents in the training match!"
"The Spring Season Champions RNG are here for you to try out. How is it? Do you feel any pressure?"
After hearing this, Ah Shui couldn't help but frown, wondering if there was something wrong with White Crescent Moon's brain.
Even if the top LPL clubs are trying out new players, the most they would do is to bring in the young players from the second team, and then break up their original first team into two groups to perform a customized 5V5.
RNG's strength is seriously beyond the standard!
The most important thing is that the purpose of their training match is to prepare for the MSI where many strong teams gather, which means that the opponent will definitely play the training match with the most focused attitude.
"Other players in the Spring Championship are firing on all cylinders. These players are not trial players at all. They are clearly sent to be abused!" Ah Shui looked at White Crescent and thought this was unreasonable: "You can't do a training match of this intensity even if you are the world champion."
"I never thought he could win. The greater the pressure, the more things can be revealed. Losing in the spring season is a loss. At least we got runner-up, which is considered to be a good performance. But we really can't lose in the summer season. The minimum expectation is to maintain the fourth place and fight for the second place. If we can't secure a seeding spot in the world championship, the consequences will be serious. You know it without me telling you."
"We must be cautious when changing formations!"
White Crescent explained.
TES is currently facing a very serious problem. Since letting go of 369, no one in the entire Top Esports team expected that he would make great achievements in JDG, so much so that even the reputation of the head coach himself has been affected by public opinion. After all, from the surface, 369 has indeed grown a lot after leaving TES.
In this spring season, Wayward was completely outplayed by Bin, and his true nature as a noob was exposed. His reputation has been completely ruined. Not to mention how the outside world evaluates him, the fact that angry Top Esports fans have been bombarding the club with Weibo day and night to force the club to fire Wayward is enough to mean that they are destined to shelve him next season.
After all, the club's goal is to achieve good results, but before that it also needs to maintain the fans of its own team. If the fans hate a player very much, and the player is the culprit who drags down the team, forcibly keeping him and going against the fans will only damage the club's reputation.
At the same time, QingTian, who was the substitute top laner, was also unable to handle the task.
They, Top Esports, must strengthen their top lane in order to prepare for the more important summer season.
Even if the new top laner is not a first-class top laner with a great reputation in the industry, at least he, White Crescent, has unearthed a truly talented talent with potential, which can be regarded as the most powerful response to those voices online that constantly criticize him for not knowing how to coach players.
Therefore, when it comes to discovering new talents, White Crescent feels that he must rather have nothing than have the wrong ones.
"Hey buddy, are you okay?" A Shui pushed Lu Yiming who was distracted.
White Crescent Moon pressed on, "Can you do it? Looking at you like this, if the pressure is too great, we can discuss changing opponents. After all, this lineup is really too much for a trial training assessment."
"You also know that it's beyond the scope." Ah Shui rolled his eyes and said, "Our team has been working together for half a year and was beaten to pieces. You let a newcomer try out with such an opponent. What's the difference between this and asking Benboba to kill Sun Wukong?"
Lu Yiming came back to his senses, and even revealed a bit of excitement between his eyebrows: "I originally thought I would have to wait until the summer season, but I didn't expect the opportunity for revenge to come so soon."
"Yes, of course, it's great!"
"If it was someone else, I might have restrained myself, but you're telling me it was RNG?"
"I will definitely win!!"
Bai Yueya and A Shui both opened their eyes wide, obviously not expecting this kid to respond like this. From the sound of it, he not only felt that he could withstand RNG's fierce attack, but even... take it down?
Their fully-formed TES lost 2:3 in the finals, and now a guy who had zero coordination with all his teammates actually said something like this?
"Boasting is not a good quality." White Crescent Moon reminded. He liked confident children, but he also hated those bragging kids.
Seeing that Lu Yiming wanted to explain and not wanting to discuss this topic any further, Ah Shui smiled and pulled him away, then walked towards the restaurant not far away.
"I was wondering why it smells so good, it turns out to be my favorite braised chicken legs. Forget about that for now, eat your meal first, and then we can talk about the tryout!"
Compared to RNG, Topsports' dining environment is obviously more upscale. Dinner actually consists of ten dishes and one soup. There are two cooking aunties working together. Ah Shui enthusiastically helps Lv Yiming serve a bowl of rice: "Just pick up whatever you want to eat. Don't be polite."
"Come on, come on, guys, let me introduce you guys!" "This is Lv Yiming who came here to try out for the top laner. He's the guy I told you about before, the one who can kill a full-health buddy instantly with just his Goat! He's really good at it."
Xiaotian, who just joined TES this season, was very cool. He just nodded at Lu Yiming and said nothing more.
Zuoshou and Mark greeted him politely, but the former said a lot of gibberish and Lu Yiming didn't understand a word he heard, so he could only smile and wave in response.
Wayward looked Lu Yiming up and down, "Oh, you are so good~Brother~"
"Hello there!"
There was a slightly sarcastic tone in his words, and it was obvious that he looked down on Juehuo Ge in his heart.
Although he vaguely knew that he might have to sit on the bench for a while in the summer season, Wayward was not worried. After all, his contract with TES lasted until the beginning of S13. Even if he sat on the bench temporarily, when the coaching staff found that there was no one else available, they would have to let him take charge.
LPL is rich in AD and jungle, but it is also a desert in the mid and upper reaches.
There have always been those same players in the top lane, and those who have won honors and have outstanding resumes have incredibly high transfer fees. However, the top lane is the position with the lowest tactical status in the team, and no club is willing to pay several times the premium to introduce a top laner whose price and strength are completely mismatched.
For example, Bin, the strongest top laner in China today.
The transfer fee of 1500 million yuan is given to the club. The player's annual salary is 1000 million yuan. If you want to bring Bin to join, you have to prepare a conservative estimate of 2500 million yuan!
This price even exceeds that of Xiaohu, who has entered the World Championship six times in his career.
And Scout, EDG's strongest mercenary and now the defending champion.
With these two, you've basically booked a ticket to the World Championship.
But there is only one Bin, and let alone a ticket to the World Championship, the fact that he can lead the team to the semi-finals of the Summer Season is already great value for money.
Lu Yiming pretended not to hear the contempt in Dahuang's tone and buried his head in eating.
I have to say that the cooking skills of the auntie in Topbo cafeteria are indeed better than those of RNG. The taste of the braised chicken legs alone has completely conquered my stomach.
However, Da Huang, seeing that the other party was ignoring him, took the initiative to find a topic to talk about.
"Dude, you don't know, the water in the top lane is too deep, most people can't grasp it."
"A bunch of haters online always say that it's because of me that we lost to RNG in the finals, but privately everyone knows what's going on. Our LPL is a desert in the top lane, and Bin's transfer fee plus salary is a fucking 2500 million. That much money is enough to buy a building in a small city!"
"What about me? My transfer fee is only 100 million, and my annual salary is even less, only 80!"
"All together, he can't even reach one tenth of Bin's performance. Those haters don't understand the game at all and just spit nonsense online. If Bin is really bad, RNG is not stupid. Why would they invest so much money in him?"
"I'm only one-tenth of Bin's price, but I helped the team get the runner-up in the league. Not only was I not recognized or praised, but the haters even turned around and accused me of being a loser."
“Who can I talk to?”
"If this happened to you, would you be angry?"
A Shui, Knight, Xiao Tian and Mark looked at Da Huang and wanted to refute, but they couldn't find any reason. After all, they knew the ecological environment of LPL better than anyone else.
Although Dahuang is a vegetable, it is indeed cheap compared to the top laners in the industry!
With this price, the team does not ask for him to be the carry in the top lane. What the team requires of him is to 'make fewer mistakes', not be a lucky charm for the opponent in every game, and then participate in more team battles and do his job as a functional top laner well. These alone are worth the money.
"Do you want me to empathize with you?"
Lu Yiming swallowed the chicken leg in his mouth, wiped his mouth, and looked at Wayward who was talking incessantly.
"From the moment I sat down, you kept on talking non-stop. When you lost, you didn't blame yourself for being bad, but instead blamed yourself for having a different worth than your opponent. If everyone follows your calculation, there will be no need to play the World Finals in the future. Before the game, the officials should just calculate the total worth of the players on both sides."
"The one with the lowest bid loses! What do you think of this proposal?"
Including the head coach White Crescent, everyone looked over with his teammates, all of them were surprised by Lu Yiming's bizarre proposal.
Da Huang's face was stiff: "Are you pointing at me?"
"No, I just want to tell you that if you are not good at it, you should practice more. If you can't afford to play, don't play. If you don't have the ability, give up your position to those who can do practical things. Don't be a loser and blame this and that, or even blame the lack of money. With this mentality, my suggestion is that you can go to a construction site outside and carry cement for a few days!"
“Maybe I’ll have an epiphany after I come back.”
"Oh, yes, you are right. The LPL top lane is indeed very difficult to play in. I never thought that a fake player like you could get an annual salary of 80."
Lu Yiming's blunt words made Da Huang blush immediately.
Including Zuoshou, Xiaotian, and White Crescent Moon, they all looked at him in surprise, especially Ah Shui, whose chicken leg bone fell onto the table with a "click".
This buddy!
Before he became a professional player, he must have been a stand-in for the amazing comments in a certain audio platform’s comment section!
"You're looking for trouble with us, aren't you?!"
Da Huang slammed the table and stood up, his face red as he growled, "No, you're the one who was cyberbullied by the Royal Team because you played so badly, and then was kicked out by RNG. After that, you only dared to play idiotic heroes like Goat in the rankings. Others have the right to doubt my strength, but do you, an idiot, have the right to doubt it?"
"Look, you forced me to empathize with you, and then I just told you the truth, and you got as anxious as a monkey." Lu Yiming spread his hands: "As the saying goes, lies don't hurt people, the truth is the sharpest knife. I didn't expect that a word could have such a big impact."
"I'm calling you a jerk, are you sick?" Da Huang glared at him and clenched his fist in anger.
Seeing that the two of them were already on edge when they met for the first time, even White Crescent herself did not expect that Lu Yiming would be so aggressive. Although he was happy to hear these words, he also felt that this kid might not understand the environment of the LPL top lane and was just being ignorant and fearless.
He looked suspiciously at the young man in front of him who was neither humble nor arrogant, and persuaded the two of them to stop.
Because of this unpleasant quarrel, the atmosphere during the meal became a little quieter.
After dinner.
White Crescent immediately arranged a training match with RNG.
"You can use Da Huang's account. Remember, the result of the tryout will be evaluated based on your overall performance in the game. Your laning skills, gank prevention, ward position, development ability, and teamfight ability are all considered criteria."
White Crescent was preaching to Lu Yiming, and he was also holding a small notebook ready to take notes. As the general manager of TES, Guo Hao heard that the club had a new top laner on trial, so he came to supervise the battle with a responsible attitude.
"Just play to your strengths. A truly strong person doesn't seek temporary gains." Ah Shui was afraid that Lu Yiming didn't know the difference between the enemy and us, so he kindly reminded him, "There's no need to pursue laning blindly. Your strength is tankiness. Your core competitiveness has little to do with laning. Losing some economy in laning doesn't matter. As long as you can hold on until the team fight later, you'll have a stage to show off."
Lu Yiming took another look at A Shui.
It was obvious that the two of them were not familiar with each other before and their relationship could only be considered strangers, but now that they met for the first time, this boy was so frank and enthusiastic towards him, which made him feel grateful in his heart.
"Do not worry!"
After the five RNG players on the opposite side entered the custom room, A Shui, as the owner of the room, started the game.
……
Two in one.
Our data is very poor, but the plot set in this book has now officially entered a white-hot stage. If you are reading it and think it is good, please give us some monthly tickets.
I have too low self-esteem.
