Chapter 192
Hearing Francis‘ words, Lionel was stunned. The International Association for Scientific Research? Wiz?” he thought in surprise.
As far as he knew, it was a newly developed laptop by the International Association for Scientific Research that was not for sale to the general public.
Moreover, some internet users claimed that not only was Wiz currently unavailable for purchase, but it would be expensive and limited even if it were made available in the future.
Alaptop would be worth at least six figures.
He thought. Yet
Francis used it so casually to appease his girlfriend.
Besides, our team leader was the one being appeased.
That is to say, as a new substitute for Team Gorgeous, I would have the privilege to view the Wiz worth six figures, right?”
He suddenly felt like he could not sit still and that he could almost float on air.
He thought, “Why was such a wealthy team rumored to be an incredibly poor team without a base and uniform and could not find a single sporisor?
A single Wiz is enough to feed those conceited teams for a year.
No… Maybe they don’t even deserve to eat!
In the end, Lionel had no idea how he had left the manor.
The only thing he remembered was Samantha saying they would meet at six o’clock tomorrow and that if they felt it was a waste of time transporting back and forth, they could bring some clothes for changing tomorrow and stay with her.
After getting into Samantha’s luxury car, Lionel glanced at the mansion through the window,
He thought, ‘In other words….
By following Samantha, not only can I access Wiz, but I can also enjoy daily fine dining, travel in a luxury car, and stay in this manor that takes up a few acres?
No, this is
too much. I almost believed I was also a billionaire.
A week of training soon ended.
During this period, everyone seemed to have changed completely.
Even though it was not particularly obvious from their appearance, only they knew how much they had learned this week.
After training, they even felt much more confident about the national championships, which were initially completely unpredictable.
In the past two days, Lionel had also gotten the rules and regulations of the National Championships.
The championships would be held in the downtown stadium.
The stadium could accommodate tens of thousands of people to watch the live broadcast.
Chapter 192
Due to the large audience for Heroes of Kings, almost all tickets for each game were sold out during presale.
The first round of competition was still a scoring match.
For example, Team Gorgeous would compete with every other team at least once in the first round.
There would only be one round.
Winning would give them one point. If they were defeated, they would receive no points.
After three rounds of gaining points, the top eight would be determined by the ranking of points accumulated.
The top eight would then fight for a place in the semi–finals and finals.
Therefore, every game was particularly important.
At the same time, the scoring match in the early stage was also heavily reliant on the contestants‘ condition on that particular day.
After all, there was only one game. It wasn’t like the quarter–finals, where the winners were determined by winning three ou of five games, and the contestants could adjust their state in time.
The result would be decided in one game. A minor error could ruin the entire round and cause the team to lose one point. It was already very cold in mid–November.
However, the stadium was well–heated. The girls dressed in revealing clothes performed the opening dance enthusiastically on the stage.
The audience was also very excited. They carried illuminated signs in support of their respective chosen teams, wore apparel from the teams‘ merchandise featuring images of the players they supported, and sported hats that represented the teams. Some even painted the teams‘ symbols on their faces.
A while back, Samantha’s Team Gorgeous also had a designer hired by Francisto design a unique team logo and uniform for
them
The team uniform was a black hoodie and black casual pants. An enlarged team logo was printed on the hoodie.
The words “Team Gorgeous” were used as the logo, but it was presented in an attractive and sleek font
The font color was red
It was printed in the middle of the team uniform and on the cap making it very noticeable.
After all, the team’s name was quite intriguing in the first place.
Many fans of them were also present that day.
They wore their uniforms and held illuminated signs to cheer for Team Gorgeous.
Though their fans were few and pitiful in comparison to the other teams, it was far better than when they had no fans, were disparaged, and received no support when they competed at Elstunda University at the start.
After all, they were an emerging team with no background.
Meanwhile, those from other schools or clubs were established teams that had matured over several years.
Unfortunately, the first game of the National Championships was Team Gorgeous match
2/4
Chapter 192
The opponent was Team Mortal Kings from Elstunda’s Sloan University.
Team Mortal Kings was established four years ago. Apart from having a powerful fan base and investors, they also came in fourth place nationally the previous year, which was commendabile.
Thus, in the opening match. Team Gorgeous, a new team, took on Team Mortal Kings, a seasoned powerhouse.
The sparks between the teams were highly anticipated.
After the girls‘ opening dance, the equipment was still being adjusted to ensure that there would be no mistakes in today’s competition.
Meanwhile, the three commentators had been introducing the two teams to the audience enthusiastically.
A male commentator said. “I think everyone knows Team Mortal Kings…”
As soon as he finished speaking, there were cheers from Team Mortal Kings‘ fans,
“Team Mortal Kings! Team Mortal Kings! We’ll be there for you as you go global!”
Team Mortal Kings, keep it up!”
Team Mortal Kings, keep it up!
The male commentator smiled. The fans present are very passionate, huh? Team Mortal Kings is an experienced team that has been around for four years, and the five contestants have fought countless times together. They are very much in sync. Some people claimed their teammates could tell what they wanted to do next just by looking at each other. Last year, Team Mortal Kings came in fourth place nationally. I’m very excited for Team Mortal Kings‘ performance this year as well!”
The female commentator said, “Yes! Team Mortal Kings‘ bottom laner has always been very tough. Everyone knows that! However, it is said that our new team today, the team of straight A students from Elstunda University. Team Gorgeous, also has an impressive bottom laner.”
At this point, the female commentator deliberately stopped.
The reason for this was that, typically, when each team was mentioned for the first time, the fans of that team would go ballistic and roar for a minute, cheering for the team they liked and supported.
The atmosphere on the scene would also be ignited.
At the same time, when the contestants backstage heard their fans encouragement, they would become more passionate and feel more accomplished.
Nonetheless, after the female commentator had stopped for about five seconds, the scattered cheers from fans of Team Gorgeous could finally be heard.
There were a few shouts of “Team Gorgeous, keep it up!” but they were extremely disorganized, scattered, and completely unimposing.
The female commentator smiled awkwardly and then continued the introduction
Although Team Gorgeous is a team that was only established less than two months ago, its potential is there for all to see. As we all know. Elstunda University is the top university in our country. By playing the game with their wit, which they typically use in their academic endeavors, contestants from Elstunda University performed unexpectedly. For example, there’s the previous four–versus–live match that Team Gorgeous participated in, which instantly shocked the gaming society. So, today, I’m also looking forward to the performance of Team Gorgeous!”
