LPL History

Chapter 65: Joking and Laughing Distract the Enemy, Lee Sin's E-Flash Breaks Through the Ice (Please Read On!)
Although GG literally translates to "good game," with the development of esports culture, it has become a term with a special meaning.

Usually, the side that admits defeat types "GG".

If the winning side is the first to type GG, it actually carries a sarcastic or mocking connotation.

Zhou Li's behavior was even more excessive.

It's like the two sides are sparring; they've only just begun their exchange when Zhou Li says to the CLG members:
"You played well, kid, but you've already lost."

Upon seeing the text in the chat box, the CLG members immediately exploded, unleashing a torrent of profanities at Zhou Li.

Zhou Li's interaction was naturally broadcast live!

Mars Live.

Su Xiaoyan and Gunpowder Rose were still worried about Ice Bird getting a kill at level one when they saw Zhou Li's provocation.

This caused the two to stop their explanation, trembling with fear, and they could only pretend they hadn't seen it.

However, such eye-catching interaction naturally did not escape the eyes of netizens, and the comments in the live broadcast room instantly exploded.

[66666! As expected of my horn-wielding bro, he's already blasting it right at the start of the competition.]

[Starting with mockery? How embarrassing!]

[Bro, all I can say is that if we win this round, the guy with the loudspeaker is overconfident; if we lose, I suggest WE throw him into the East China Sea when they fly back.]

Why can't someone with power be arrogant?

[I'm afraid my face will get slapped so hard it'll be swollen; this is an Ice Bird with Rotten Flesh Root!]

Meanwhile, on the English stream of the OGN television website, Western netizens were already going crazy.

Who is this kid?

[Kill him, frogeen!]

[WE replaced their captain with a clown?]

[Is that a lion from a circus troupe? Hahaha!]

Haha, this is the first time I've seen such an arrogant Chinese person. I thought all Chinese people were very humble.

I am a Chinese American, and I want to clarify that we Chinese are very humble; this person is just an isolated case.

This kind of Zhou ritual is truly shameful for us overseas Chinese.

[Exactly, foreign gentlemen, calm down and don't blame us Run people. We suggest WE kneel down and kowtow to them in apology!]

At the match venue, a huge chorus of boos erupted from the stands.

Although the audience at the scene was mostly Korean, as descendants of soldiers, and given the Koreans' animosity towards China, they naturally sided with their white fathers.

After seeing Zhou Li's sarcastic remarks about CLG, the scene seemed to instantly turn into CLG's home ground.

Even through her headphones, she could hear the deafening boos from the crowd, and couldn't help but speak up:

"Why are you sending these? What if we lose..."

Zhou Li interrupted Wei Xiao's words directly, and said with a smile:

“You see, you yourself said, ‘what if’ we lose. Don’t worry, there’s no ‘what if’ here with Brother Zhou.”

Smiling, she was still worried: "This is not good after all. We are representing the domestic team this time, and we are representing the image of the Chinese people."

Upon hearing the smile, Zhou Li raised his eyebrows.

This is the huge difference in thinking between Chinese people in 2025 and Chinese people in 2012.

This was an era when public intellectuals appeared in large numbers on the internet. Under their brainwashing, Chinese people were excessively self-conscious and still concerned about their so-called image abroad, as if gentleness and humility had to be the labels of Chinese people.

"After completing my studies, what kind of image will I have?"

Zhou Li asked a question in return, and before he could answer with a smile, he continued:
"Why be humble? Why should we be humble?"

"The Chinese people have stood up!"

After saying that, he moved the mouse away from the straw sandals, and instead of buying any other equipment, he left the four hundred gold coins and went straight out.

Zhou Li originally went out with a longsword, but when he returned home, he wanted to mend some straw sandals to make it easier to provide support in the early stages of the game.

But now, he has changed his mind.

He has 360 gold coins for his longsword and 400 gold coins left. He is currently 440 gold coins short of his first piece of equipment.

After thinking it over, Zhou Li simply bought a scout guard and headed out.

Looking at the Lee Sin who only bought one ward, Su Xiaoyan said in confusion, "Hey! We saw that after Lion got First Blood, he didn't buy any more items and went straight back to lane! Did he forget? But if he forgot, he bought another ward..."

Guns N' Roses clearly couldn't understand Zhou Li's behavior either, and said:

"That's a bit strange. The Lee Sin has 400 gold coins, which is more than enough to buy boots or another Long Sword. Maybe he's just too nervous. After all, it's Lion's first time participating in such an international tournament."

WE Lounge.

As Ruofeng watched the minion waves converge in the mid lane, Froggen's Anivia had already started pushing the lane, while Lee Sin was cowering in the back, not even thinking about last-hitting minions, appearing timid and hesitant.

At level two, Lee Sin found an opportunity to trade blows with Anivia, but after using his skills, he was chased down and beaten by Anivia, which drew ridicule from netizens.

That's it? That's all?

How dare this Lion taunt before the match?

[Hilarious! His mouth is the loudest than anyone else's, but if a fight breaks out, he'll run away with his tail between his legs.]

Ruofeng sighed as he watched the mockery directed at Zhou Li in the live stream, then looked at the minion wave pushing towards the blue team's tower and the Ice Bird's health.

Ruofeng, who had been brutally beaten by Zhou Li's Lee Sin in the mid lane, knew that at levels one to three, an Anivia without Flash was already at the kill threshold.

The thought of Zhou Li showing off later made Ruofeng feel worse than if he had eaten shit.

Looking at froggen's arrogant movement as he chased after Lee Sin A, Ruofeng wanted to rush onto the stage and give froggen a good whack, and loudly ask him:

"What the hell are you pretending for? You're about to die, what the hell are you pretending for!"

At this point, the minion wave had already pushed to the front of the blue team's tower.

Froggen was very relaxed because he didn't feel any pressure from the Lee Sin.

Meanwhile, Lee Sin has already reached level three!
"boom!"

The moment the Bone-Breaking Palm was raised, the Lee Sin immediately used Flash!

E flash!
froggen was taken aback by the Lee Sin's sudden and unprecedented move.

"What kind of operation is this?!"

Instinctively, Rotroot instantly unleashed its Q skill to control the Lee Sin who flashed close to its face.

But at that moment, a scout ward had already landed behind the Ice Bird!
The moment Anivia's Q skill was cast, Lee Sin had already used W to ward-hop and instantly appeared behind Anivia!

"What terrifying hand speed!"

Rotten Root felt his eyelids twitching wildly.

"Oh!"

Zhou Li's incredibly smooth maneuvering, including the E-flash that had never been seen in public before, completely ignited the audience.

In the live stream, Su Xiaoyan's commentary even started to stutter.

"Was that a Flash + E... wait, was it an E-Flash? Can Lee Sin use E-Flash?!"

Guns N' Roses shouted excitedly:

"Lion caught Fleshroot completely off guard! That means Fleshroot, without Flash, doesn't seem to be able to escape!!"

Lee Sin's Sonic Wave was already on Anivia's head. After a few auto-attacks, he used his second Q to kick out the egg of the Rotten Root!
At this moment, the Ice Bird was still some distance away from its own defensive tower.

Rotten Root stared nervously at his skills. The Blind Monk had just used up all his skills, and with only one person, he couldn't break his balls.

As long as I get up and use my Q to catch them... oh, the enemy jungler is here, then it's fine.

Mingkai had already emerged from the bushes.

He knew that for a normal person who had never seen Zhou Li's strategy before, this level 3 attack would almost certainly result in certain death, especially since the Ice Bird didn't have Flash yet.

From the commentary booth, Su Xiaoyan excitedly shouted, "Smash his balls! Smash his balls! Lion! He smashed the Rotting Root's balls!"

Guns N' Roses couldn't help but laugh as they listened to Su Xiaoyan's outrageous words.

After securing the kill on Rotten Root, Zhou Li called Ming Kai to push the mid lane, and then recalled to base.

When Zhou Li emerged from the spring again, the new equipment in his inventory immediately silenced Su Xiaoyan and Gunpowder Rose.

Regarding updates. During the new book period, it's true that only two chapters a day are allowed, and this book has had a bumpy road, even experiencing a break in recommendations. The free word count will definitely be higher (actually, I also want it to be available quickly to make money, *cries*). The book should be available in one to two weeks at the earliest, and then there will definitely be a surge in updates. I can't guarantee how many chapters will be released at once; authors are human too, and we need to make a living. Good results naturally provide more motivation for more frequent updates (mainly because the current results are really bad; who understands the despair of not even making it to the third round of streaming on a game platform?). Therefore, I hope all my readers will be patient during this period and continue reading. More reading leads to more recommendations, more recommendations lead to better results, and better results lead to more frequent updates—a virtuous cycle. Thank you all.
