In the Seoul Stadium, the audience did not leave until 11 o'clock in the evening.

It was finally time for the pre-match rehearsal.

Bo Chuxia, Zhang Yuanyi, and the other two selected trainees have done their makeup and are waiting for the performance backstage.

Riot Games has planned a virtual girl group of LOL game characters this year - K/DA.

Globally.

Four girls who are extremely outstanding in all aspects are selected to be the people behind the virtual characters.

Except for Bo Chuxia, who is specially invited by Riot.

The other three are trainees who debuted and stood out after layers of selection by Riot.

It must be said that Bo Chuxia is not only amazing in singing.

Even dancing, with just a little training, has the strength that is not inferior to the other three girls.

So she has become the undisputed C position of this virtual girl group with her own strength.

Bo Chuxia plays the role of "Ahri", and the other three girls play Kaisa, Evelynn, and Akali respectively.

Because it was a rehearsal.

In addition, Riot was extremely attentive in the pre-match program and had extremely high requirements for the professional ability of the participating guests, so there were no mistakes.

The more important meaning of the rehearsal is just to go through the process and determine the positions of each performance and guests.

Let the photographers and lighting technicians on the scene prepare to ensure that the visual presentation of the live broadcast tomorrow afternoon is amazing enough.

"Ouni, are you nervous?" Zhang Yuanyi, who was standing behind the curtain, asked in a low voice with less than 1 minute before going on stage.

Bai Chuxia smiled and touched the girl's head, "I'm not nervous, and you don't have to be nervous either. It's just that the stage is a little bigger."

"Yeah."

Zhang Yuanyi nodded obediently. Although she is not very old, her professional ability is very strong.

"Ouni, come on!" Zhang Yuanyi, wearing an Akali mask, stretched out his hand and made a cheering gesture.

"Yuanyi, you too!"

Bai Chuxia was wearing an Ahri eye mask at the moment, with a beautiful arc at the corner of her mouth. Although only half of her face was exposed, it still gave people a sense of déjà vu that was inverted.

Zhang Yuanyi liked Bai Chuxia, a kind and gentle sister.

If the other party could enter the South Korean idol circle, it would definitely be a dimensionality reduction attack.

Alone in a foreign land.

Since her besties returned to China, Bai Chuxia has been with Zhang Yuanyi the most during this period.

She also likes this simple and cute little sister.

Therefore, she talked to her about many things.

For example, why did she take the initiative to become a member of the K/DA virtual girl group...

The next day.

In the afternoon, 3 o'clock.

There are still 2 hours before the S9 season and the MSI Mid-Season Invitational Finals officially start.

EDG and DWG will represent the LPL and LCK regions respectively to compete in the final of this MSI Mid-Season Invitational.

Winners take losers.

Who will win in the end?

As the organizer and host of this MSI Mid-Season Invitational, can the LCK region maintain its home dignity?

The venue is already full of spectators!

Tonight, compared with yesterday, the venue is mainly occupied by LPL and LCK spectators.

Banners, battle flags, and various and colorful cheering items are filled in the dense crowd.

The scene is bustling, and the warm-up performance has begun on the stage.

If last year, unknown little stars were able to perform on the MSI stage.

Then this year, those who can appear on the MSI stage are at least first-line stars from South Korea, or first-line stars from the LPL.

There is no way, Riot will announce the official live broadcast room data of this MSI in major regions around the world every day.

In addition, the MSI Mid-Season Invitational, the discussion on various social platforms, and the heat index are also announced.

The traffic is extremely terrifying, and LCK attaches great importance to it.

Even the South Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism was alarmed.

As we all know.

South Korea attaches great importance to the cultural industry, and entertainment is the top priority!

It even proposed the slogan of building a country based on culture.

This is why they are keen to snatch various traditional festivals and cultures.

The effect is also very significant. Hallyu also occupies a place in the world's popular culture.

"Korean drama" is even praised as one of the four major cultural phenomena in the world after Chinese online literature, Hollywood movies, and Sakura animation.

This also indirectly led to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism having a very high status.

The result is.

The pre-match warm-up performance program of this finals has a very terrifying lineup.

Such as the phenomenal BTSAll the groups were invited to perform.

The purpose is very simple, that is, to take this opportunity to show their cultural strength in front of the whole world.

At the same time, it can also be regarded as cheering for their South Korean e-sports.

LPL is naturally not to be outdone.

Several phenomenal singers in the Chinese music scene were also invited to support LPL.

How to say it, for the audience at the scene, whether they are from South Korea or have come all the way from China, even if they bought scalper's increased ticket.

Seeing this sincere pre-match performance, even if it is just an appetizer, it can be said that it is worth the ticket price.

As for the main course later, let alone.

There are still tens of thousands of people outside the South Korean Olympic Sports Center who have not grabbed tickets and are directly watching the game live outside.

At this moment, in the EDG team player lounge.

Qijiang is watching the performance screen displayed on the monitor in the room with relish.

"Do you feel it? The spring of e-sports... has arrived. You can't catch up with the best era of e-sports!"

He couldn't help but sigh.

Thinking of the scene of the first MSI Mid-Season Invitational 4 years ago.

EDG also entered the finals and won the championship.

"Do you know how big the venue of the finals was?"

Qijiang recalled the past, and even her eyes began to sparkle.

Everyone was a little curious.

369 asked: "I only remember that EDG won the championship that year, which set off a storm in the e-sports circle!"

"Strictly speaking, that should be the first time our LPL region won the world championship."

"Yes."

Qijiang nodded, thinking of his own glory that year.

"The area of ​​the finals venue at that time was probably less than one-fiftieth of the area of ​​this year's venue."

"There were only a few thousand spectators on the scene, and the number of spectators from our LPL region was even pitiful."

"It's only been four years... It's like a dream." Qijiang really felt like he was dreaming at this moment.

Because not only were there many people on the scene tonight, but even the stars on the stage were familiar to him, who didn't pay attention to the entertainment industry.

"You know, as for the pre-match warm-up performers, these people used to be in a world of difference with us, but what about now?"

Qijiang's face was full of pride, and his eyes swept across the crowd.

Xiaotian quickly answered excitedly: "Now they are just the appetizer, and we are the main course!"

"The audience on the scene came for us! Cheer and jump for e-sports."

"And they just came here to get attention and show their presence!"

As the head coach of the EDG team, Qijiang also received professional training before obtaining the coaching qualification certificate.

Before the game, what he had to do was to guide the contestants psychologically!

Well, it might be more appropriate to describe it as a boost of energy.

"Now you should know the weight of your responsibility, right?"

"So many LPL viewers have come from thousands of miles away to see us and support us!"

"It is a responsibility and an opportunity. Show your best and don't let down the viewers who love us. Similarly, don't bring shame to the LPL!"

"The Koreans have dominated the entire LOL event for who knows how many years!"

"Take the internal fighting in the Bird's Nest in S7 as an example. That time was extremely shameful."

"It made countless e-sports enthusiasts and the country lose confidence in our Guodian."

"Now the opportunity is in front of us."

"We must let those viewers who once had their dreams shattered in S7 rekindle their hopes again."

"We, EDG, are now a thorough all-Chinese team!!"

"Tonight, we must shut out DWG! We broke through the entire MSI Mid-Season Invitational."

"Use absolute strength to crush the pride of the Koreans. Prove how strong we are!"

Qijiang's words were sonorous, and he even roared.

It is hard to imagine that the usually optimistic and humorous coach Mingkai can have such a bloody side.

This contrast gave EDG everyone a great shock.

Even Lu Ziang was no exception. He officially got into the game of LOL because EDG won the MSI Mid-Season Invitational Championship.

However, Lu Ziang was only 15 years old at the time and was still a junior high school student. He just played when he had free time.

At that time, his level was already considered a top player.

He even received private messages from many clubs inviting him to play professionally.

But he refused them all.

Lu Ziang’s academic performance was very poor except when he was in kindergarten.

After entering elementary school, he was always quite stable, and he was always the first in the grade.

As he was always the first in elementary school, he naturally went to the best middle school in their province.

After entering junior high school, his grades were also extremely stable, and he was still the first in the school.

Then, he went to the best high school in the province.

This is why he was still able to retain his student status after dropping out of school.

And he was still qualified to take the college entrance examination after not going to school for two years.

When he first entered high school, Lu Ziang began to get more information about the professional arena.

At that time, most of the teams in the entire LPL region were dominated by Korean players.

An extreme atmosphere has been formed, as if you don’t get two Korean players and a South Korean coach, you won’t be able to play at all.

If it weren’t for the LPL official’s strict prohibition that a team is not allowed to have more than two foreign players.

Many clubs would definitely arrange 5 foreign players directly.

The more clubs love Korean players, the more LPL audiences hate them.

At that time, some netizens even joked that "LPL is a money-making place for LCK players" and "LCK colony".

This wanton invasion in the field of e-sports has caused countless LPL audiences to be disgusted and angry.

And as a result, a large group of "anti-Korean pioneers" was born.

Lu Ziang was a teenager and was somewhat indignant about this.

So he followed the trend and switched from the national server to the Korean server.

He started his anti-Korean journey, or to be more precise, a killing journey.

It was during this period that he met "Jelly" and many professional players in the e-sports circle.

He had a deeper understanding of domestic e-sports (based on lol events).

But that was all. He did not have the idea of ​​becoming a professional player.

Until the s7 season, two LPL teams and two LCK teams made it to the semi-finals.

They are WE, RNG, SSG, and SKT.

The semi-finals draw was definitely a good draw for the LPL region.

They were WE vs SSG, and RNG vs SKT.

And when the game reached this stage.

The venue of the final has also been confirmed to be the "Bird's Nest".

The meaning is self-evident! This is a kind of trust, a heavy trust.

This game situation is very likely to cause infighting in South Korea, but it is also possible that there will be infighting in the LPL.

Everyone unanimously chose to believe the latter, even if it was a little worse, RNG and WE, there will always be one team that can enter the finals?

However, the result was beyond everyone's expectations.

Lu Ziang was on the scene for both semi-finals. He remembered very clearly that the venue was the Dongfeng Sports Center in Shanghai.

He saw RNG team 5 put Galio, and also saw SKT team beat RNG with a slight advantage of 3:2 and entered the finals.

Lu Ziang did not go to the semi-finals on the second day.

He sold the tickets he had grabbed to scalpers at a high price.

He just posted a sentence "Come on WE" on QQ space. Later, WE lost to SSG team, and the last flame of LPL was extinguished.

SSG and SKT, the two teams from LCK, successfully met in the Bird's Nest.

Later, SKT lost, and Samsung became the biggest winner!

That day.

Samsung team won the championship trophy of the S7 World Finals in the Bird's Nest.

That day.

The 21-year-old big devil Faker lost the fourth S trophy in his career.

He burst into tears, and Bang next to him kept comforting him.

That day.

The scalpers who hoarded a large number of tickets for the finals stood on the rooftop.

The ticket that could have earned a house turned into a pile of waste paper in a blink of an eye, and couldn't even afford a meal at McDonald's.

It was also on this day.

Lu Ziang applied for a leave of absence.

With a lonely courage and unprecedented anger.

He resolutely joined the RNG youth training camp and became a semi-professional player, starting his journey in the LDL secondary league...

Now looking back, time has passed and things have changed.

Just then.

Four tall girls dressed like cosplay appeared in the OB screen.

They were wearing eye masks, sunglasses, or masks...

The focus of Lu Ziang's eyes, at the moment when the four girls appeared on the screen, was concentrated on "Ahri".

The screen appeared, accompanied by heavy drum beats.At the same time, the information of this song also emerged.

Song: "Gods" MSI Mid-Season Invitational Finals Theme Song

Composer: Riot/Zhi Tao

Arranger: Riot/Zhi Tao

Lyricist: Zhi Tao

Singer: Ahri (lead dancer, lead singer)

Performer: K/DA

The drum beats became more and more intense, as if they were hammers hitting the hearts of the audience.

Complex and exciting orchestral and electronic music slowly blended in at the right beat.

Just a prelude, the whole scene exploded in an instant!

At this moment, the manic, explosive, and passionate prelude stopped for 0.5 seconds.

Then, the lead singer Ahri took the lead in walking out of the queue, and the dance began.

I saw Bai Chuxia pick up the microphone and open her red lips.

At this moment, the soundtrack and the human voice were fused, without any sense of disobedience.

Her voice is like a natural creation of a grand and exciting atmosphere.

Combined with the lyrics of the song "God of Ascension", it complements the fierce competition of the competition.

Once again ignited the blood of the audience!

Music, dance, vocals, lyrics... the top sound system, the most advanced OB display.

And the overwhelming shouts and roars of countless audiences on the scene blended with each other.

For this MSI Mid-Season Invitational Finals, the most perfect opening was woven.

Bai Chuxia wore a pink cosplay costume, holding the microphone tightly in her hand, and poured all her strength and emotion into her voice:

One more step

It will be sung by thousands of people

The body of the winner

Long-step God of Ascension

Welcome the worship of the world

...

Despite the sun, moon and stars

Now I have the long steps

Born in a hundred refinements to become a god

...
