AG's tea room.
Pei Qian sat on the sofa, his anger still simmering. He had expected that Maoshen would come after him for this, but he never expected that Maoshen would actually lay a hand on him!
He came right off the bat with a huge slut!
My cheek is still aching slightly.
" Brother Pei, don't take it to heart." Zhongyi gently patted Pei Qian's back, comforting him. "That's just how Maoshen is. He's usually gentle and refined, but once he goes crazy, no one can stop him."
"But I have to say, Maoshen's combat power far exceeds expectations." Martial General Xuanran, holding the back of his head. "He carried an air Purify weighing dozens of kilograms without a second thought, scaring Brother Pei like a rat in the street."
Upon hearing this, Pei Qian's face darkened.
Zhongyi picked up a cushion and threw it at Xuanran, angrily saying, "If you can't speak properly, then shut up. Nobody thinks you're mute."
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey."
Realizing what had happened, Xuanran herself in the face. "Look at my foul mouth! Sorry, Brother Pei, I didn't mean to insult you."
Pei Qian's expression finally softened.
" Nuozai!" Pei Qian's gaze fell on the single sofa opposite, looking at Yinuo who was deep in thought with his chin resting on his hand, and he said fiercely, "That Maoshen is just taking advantage of his seniority. He clearly can't stand to see you guys doing well and doesn't want our AG to become the undisputed Overlord!"
"I've had a rumor for a while now that Maoshen wants to switch to another KPL team as a coach. He knows so many of AG's secrets, he might use that as leverage to increase his value!"
"Strike first, or suffer the consequences..."
"Enough!"
Yinuo slammed his fist on the armrest and roared!
Pei Qian immediately fell silent.
Yinuo's face was filled with anger. " Brother Pei, if you speak ill of Maoshen again, don't blame me for turning my back on you!"
He had the utmost respect for Maoshen. When he first took over as captain of AG, both the veterans and the rookies in the team were dissatisfied, but Maoshen stood up for him.
To solidify his position as captain of AG, he personally returned to the KPL arena, transitioning from the mid-lane to support role, helping him win the championship again and silencing all doubts both inside and outside the team.
Maoshen deserves at least half the credit for becoming one of the league's top shooters!
Pei Qian's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. He took a deep breath and said, " Nuozai, my honest advice may be hard to hear, but it's all for your own good."
Maoshen, as the second most senior member of the team after Menglei, has always seen me as a menace. If I don't use Yinuo to oust Maoshen, then conflicts like tonight's will likely continue in the future.
"For my own good?"
Yinuo snarled, "You keep saying you're doing this for my own good, but what happened? You failed to snipe Exalted Emperor in the Peak Tournament, and he claimed on his livestream that he would take down Gan Da Guo in three days, but he did it a day ahead of schedule."
Do you know how powerful Exalted Emperor is now?
"He defeated the former Farm Lane King [ Citong ] in the Peak Tournament, and marketing accounts across the internet are spreading the news extensively, claiming that he will break the record for the shortest time to become the Overlord!"
Pei Qian's face was extremely ugly. " Nuozai, Exalted Emperor is not qualified to participate in the Overlord Feast. His number of fans on a single platform has not yet reached one million!"
" Brother Pei, are you still living in a dream?"
Yinuo took out her phone and showed it off, "Open your eyes wide and take a good look, Exalted Emperor now has one million followers on Douyin!"
Pei Qian was stunned, his face filled with disbelief.
"How could this be...?"
Yinuo said coldly, " Exalted Emperor's participation in the Overlord Feast is a foregone conclusion. The most urgent task is to have the coaching staff study his playing style and usual tactics. If he loses in the one-on-one challenge, that would be best. If he wins the one-on-one..."
"Then let's focus on team battles!"
Pei Qian hurriedly stood up, "I'll go arrange it right away."
Yinuo looked at Exalted Emperor's Douyin homepage, "No one can stop our AG team from Overlord, no one."
The following evening.
Jiangcheng, Huating Residential Complex.
As soon Su Hang opened Douyin, he received a special private message.
Overlord Feast (Blue V Verified): "Dear King of Glory of Glory player ( Exalted Emperor ), we are the organizers of the Overlord Feast."
"Given your unparalleled gaming skills, we cordially invite you to the [10th Overlord Feast ] to be held in Chengdu on August 2nd."
After confirming your participation, please fill out the [questionnaire]."
Su Hang wasn't surprised at all. After all, he had already met all the requirements to attend the Overlord Feast, so it would be strange if he wasn't invited.
Reply to confirm participation, open the questionnaire, and skim through it.
"They're all optional."
Su Hang was somewhat surprised, as all the information, including identity details, home address, and others, was optional.
The number of challengers, originally planned for ten, increased to eleven due to a last-minute invitation. Therefore, the option to choose the challenge route became optional.
"It feels like a martial arts tournament."
Su Hang rubbed his chin. Although he hadn't delved into the details of the Overlord Feast, the questionnaire revealed that, apart from the clearly defined rules for the [1V1 one-on-one challenge] and [5V5 team battle], the Overlord Feast had very few rules.
Or rather, there isn't one at all!
Extremely free.
This stands in stark contrast to the numerous rules and regulations of professional competitions!
"Whether one can become the Overlord depends on solid personal skills as a prerequisite, and secondly on connections within the industry."
Su Hang pondered for a moment. According to the rules of the questionnaire, the online challenge for the Overlord Feast would be held on August 1st, which is tomorrow night.
Ten challengers were selected from both casual and professional players, forming five lanes and competing in single- King of Glory duels, following the lane assignments used in the game.
The five final winners will participate in the offline final battle of the Overlord Feast on August 2nd, where they will challenge the previous year's lane Overlord according to their assigned lane.
The formal challenge to the reigning Overlord is quite interesting. First, you have a one-on-one challenge against the defending Overlord. If you lose, it is considered a failed challenge, and the defending Overlord continues to hold the title.
However, even if you win, it doesn't count as a successful challenge, because the defending Overlord of a particular route has a special privilege!
Challenge the challengers to a [5v5 team battle]!
Whether you can get skilled players and professional guilds to help you win depends entirely on your connections in the King of King of Glory community!
I'm confident in a one-on-one challenge.
Su Hang opened a bottle of sugar-free cola, took a sip, and said, "For a 5v5 team battle, if all else fails, we can just call up a few people."
Although I've focused on honing my King of Glory skills in recent years and rarely make friends in the game, I made quite a few friends in the early days of King of Glory game, and they are still active in the game now.
"Keep striving for the Gan the national rankings!"
It was already 6 PM, the time when the Peak Tournament was about to begin.
Taking advantage of the lull in the registration process, Su Hang skillfully set up the live streaming equipment and clicked the start button.
"A mental boost is also essential." Su Hang bent down and pulled over the sugar-free cola case. He couldn't help it; if he didn't drink sugar-free cola while playing King of Glory, he would always feel like something was missing.
Everything is ready.
Su Hang picked up his phone and looked up at the live stream.
Suddenly, I froze!
