[Esports] Team Leader Xie, your mid laner is causing trouble again.

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire training room fell into an eerie silence for a moment, and all eyes turned to the O in question.

Li Zhi felt that the dignity she had maintained all her life had become utterly vulnerable after meeting Xie Jichuan.

His face flushed red and pale, he couldn't take it anymore: "What are you looking at me for? Look at him!"

Those gazes shifted for a moment, then quickly moved away.

After all, Xie Jichuan is currently in his most vulnerable period, and he's as cold and irritable as someone about to have their period. So, apart from Li Zhi, no one wants to actively try to make their presence known to him.

Now another brave warrior, Song Bo, has emerged.

Song Bo snatched the phone back and shoved it into Xie Jichuan's hand, glaring at him coldly.

"Look at the mess you've made! Our team is in the spotlight right now, the whole league's paparazzi are watching, and you still managed to slip up with such a huge mistake and get photographed!"

Xie Jichuan appeared calm, only raising an eyebrow slightly when he heard the words "secrets on the terrace".

He took the phone and obediently began to browse the comments section below.

Wow, this is incredible! They're still messing around with the competition so close to date. Are they really training properly?

[OMG, I'm about to cry! Is the couple I'm shipping actually real?]

[Upstairs, it's almost the finals and you're still talking about shipping? If this happens and you don't win, your shipping will be bombarded with insults.]

[By the way, where did this style of underwear come from? Weren't only sets available?]

[Perhaps a rare, privately held item from River.]

[Where's the fanfiction?! Give me some! I need to know the specific details of these two pairs of underwear.]

[This is absolutely true! What Alpha would wash an Omega's underwear? Except their own wife.]

Xie Jichuan's lips curled slightly, suppressing the urge to like a comment, and he looked up at Song Bo:

"Isn't this atmosphere great? The fans are all very happy."

Song Bo: "...It seems only the CP fans are happy. Are you trying to kill our team's career-oriented fans?"

Xie Jichuan threw the phone back. "This happened more than ten days ago, and they're still bringing it up for publicity? Did UUC hire paparazzi? Can't they afford to lose?"

Song Bo: "I don't know which company hired them, they were just waiting to release them before the finals to target us."

After saying that, he sighed with some worry:

"It's also possible that the league's paparazzi just want to get some traffic. Now look what's happened. If we lose, our team's door will probably be covered in rotten eggs."

"Then let's win." Xie Jichuan said casually.

Song Bo looked over and met a pair of deep, dark eyes.

There was no hint of a joke in Alpha's eyes, and the air seemed to grow heavier.

Even he, a Beta, felt the oppressive atmosphere of the early stages of his vulnerable period and involuntarily complied:

"Okay, then we'll win."

Despite repeated warnings from management, RAK did not respond to the Weibo post that broke the news, adopting a strategy of keeping a low profile before the finals.

To prevent further public opinion from affecting the players' mentality.

On the day of the finals, WPL officially booked the largest indoor stadium in the capital and broadcast it live globally, making it a grand spectacle.

A huge poster for the finals stood outside the venue, and promotional videos for the two teams were playing on LED screens on both sides.

The entrance was crowded with media carrying cameras and microphones, and fans holding up light sticks.

In the backstage dressing room, Li Zhi was facing such a big scene for the first time, and she was unusually nervous.

He closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, mentally reviewing the training matches he had played over the past few days, analyzing each frame countless times.

As I was reviewing the positioning in a crucial team fight, someone suddenly tapped me lightly on the shoulder.

The visitor was Shi Xun, who was holding a tablet and couldn't hide his excited smile.

"Good luck in the competition, Lychee! I've already drawn your winning image and added the colors. I'm just waiting to send it out after the competition tonight!"

Li Zhi leaned closer to look at his tablet screen.

The image depicts the five RAK players standing on the podium holding the championship trophy, with even the details of their hairstyles and the embroidery on their uniforms meticulously rendered.

Looking at the chibi-style figure holding the golden trophy, Li Zhi felt a tension ease and a smile curved her lips.

"Thanks."

The two huddled together and began to whisper. Li Zhi nodded from time to time, and the tension gradually melted away in this sudden relaxation.

Just as I was feeling much better, a warm sensation suddenly pressed against me.

OvO had somehow squeezed to his other side and was looking at Shi Xun with a wary expression.

Seeing Li Zhi turn her head to look at him, he immediately put on a nonchalant, indifferent expression, but the affection in his eyes was impossible to hide:

"Kuri, I'm here to cheer you on."

So when Xie Jichuan returned to the lounge after handing over his peripherals, he opened the door to find Li Zhi with two women on either side of him.

Xie Jichuan's face visibly darkened.

He strode over, grabbed Li Zhi from the sofa without a word, and shoved her into a single sofa next to him.

Then he sat down on the sofa armrest, stretched out his long legs, and blocked the view from both sides.

He raised his chin at the two uninvited guests opposite him and said, "When I arrived, the host was asking you to go over the script."

Upon hearing this, Shi Xun and OvO exchanged a glance, immediately stood up, and hurriedly left. Before leaving, they turned back and gave Li Zhi a thumbs-up.

After the door closed, Li Zhi couldn't help but chuckle: "Why were you in such a hurry to get rid of them?"

Xie Jichuan leaned listlessly against the armrest: "Baby, Seek is an Alpha."

Li Zhi was speechless: "But OvO is an Omega, and the three of us together..."

Xie Jichuan narrowed his eyes dangerously, and squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth: "That's still not allowed."

Li Zhi raised her hand and punched him lightly: "Old fogey."

Xie Jichuan seized the opportunity to grasp his fist, without denying it:

Instead of thinking about other A and O characters here, I should prepare in advance how to comfort my boyfriend after the intense pressure period.

To prevent any sudden physical problems during the finals, he started injecting himself with an inhibitor every day for three days in advance to suppress the ever-increasing pheromone levels in his body, so that he could finish the match in the most stable condition.

While this method is indeed effective, its only drawback is that the delayed outbreak period will be much more severe than usual, and the consequences will likely be much more severe.

Li Zhi glared at him and stubbornly said:

"Only a champion boyfriend can comfort you; if you don't play well, he'll just throw you into the hospital's Alpha pheromone ward for isolation."

Xie Jichuan chuckled softly, then lowered his head and gently pressed his forehead against Xie Jichuan's.

"Alright, with Lychee's word on my side, I'll fight tooth and nail tonight to give it my all."

The match started not long after we had to wait.

Spotlights shone on simultaneously, and the two teams entered from both sides of the stage at the same time.

The golden championship trophy stood in the center of the stage, reflecting the surging light boards and flags throughout the venue.

In the commentary booth, the sounds of Pepsi and Coca-Cola echoed throughout the venue:

"Welcome everyone to the Grand Finals!"

"Today's two teams are a legend that remains undefeated in the winners' bracket, crushing all before them. The other team is a lone warrior who fought their way up from the losers' bracket with a four-kill streak, rising from the ashes."

"On one side is talent and dominance, on the other is resilience and belief. Tonight, the undefeated record of the winners and the miraculous comeback of the losers will clash head-on here!"

"Will the strong prevail and ascend to godhood with an undefeated streak? Or will they stage a desperate counterattack, writing a story of reversal as their final outcome? Ladies and gentlemen—"

The two spoke in unison, their voices piercing the clouds and splitting rocks:

"Tonight, let us witness a new legend!"
