LOL: Do I have to be a spinning top too?

Li Hu nodded while silently adding to his mind...

How could I let you kill me if I wasn't honest?

How can you increase your proficiency if you don't kill me?

The two played until dinner time. Qingtian was sweating profusely from the game and said she needed to go to the cafeteria to replenish her energy.

"Tiger, let me rest for a bit. You're not training a hero, you're training me." Qingtian's voice was weary.

Li Hu glanced at the Sword Maiden's stats... 32%.

It has increased by a full 20 percentage points compared to a few weeks ago.

"The whip of LPL professional players is just different," he thought to himself.

Moreover, Qingtian is a very honest person.

Other professional players might go back to rest after finishing their practice matches, but Qingtian is different...

All you have to do is say, "Brother Qingtian, teach me," and he'll immediately sit down and start playing with you.

Where can you find such a good person?

Li Hu then warmly put his arm around Qingtian's shoulder:

"Brother Qingtian, come on, I'll treat you to braised pork knuckle rice!"

"Really?"

"How could it be fake?"

"You're my best brother at TES!"

Qingtian's eyes almost welled up with tears.

He spent over a year with TES, going from a starter to a substitute, relegated to the bench, and never received such enthusiasm from anyone.

This young man is a really nice guy.

It seems like she has a rather large appetite.

Li Hu ate the equivalent of two servings of braised pork trotters rice from Qing Tian in one meal, but it still wasn't enough, so he ordered another serving of Longjiang braised pork trotters.

Looking at Li Hu wolfing down his food, Qing Tian couldn't understand why he ate so much yet was still so thin.

On his way back to the dormitory, Li Hu took out his phone and browsed Weibo.

The transfer window news on the internet has become a complete mess.

  

"Reports indicate that LeftHand has reached an agreement with JDG, with a transfer fee setting a new record in LPL history!"

"Leaked information: An LPL team is in contact with the LCK champion AD carry, suggesting JDG may be aiming to build a super team!"

"The AD's agency has issued an urgent clarification: They have not been in contact with any LPL teams at present, and the player is giving priority to LCK teams."

But the more they tried to refute the rumors, the more believable they seemed, and the comments section became a complete mess.

Tian's whereabouts are also a focus of attention.

After his crushing defeat in the S12 Round of 16, discussions about whether he would stay with TES have never stopped.

There are reports that he is going to other teams to look for new opportunities, while there are also reports that TES has already renewed his contract.

Scout's situation is equally interesting; rumors suggest he's in contact with other teams.

But EDG won't let him go easily, after all, he's a world champion mid laner they nurtured.

"RNG reportedly facing a cash flow crisis; Xiaohu may be sold to alleviate the debt crisis?"

Rookie's fans, however, are concerned about something else...

Will the man who led V5 from the bottom to the gauntlet stay with the team he built from the ground up?

That's how it is during the transfer window; true and false rumors fly everywhere.

Major livestreamers and marketing accounts seized the opportunity to produce content at an alarming rate.

They analyze this today and expose that tomorrow, making a fortune off the traffic they generate.

What's officially announced today might be debunked tomorrow, and what's debunked today might be confirmed the day after tomorrow.

Li Hu scrolled through the messages one by one, a smile appearing on his lips.

He switched to Hupu (a Chinese sports forum), and the top trending post was:

Left Hand went to JDG, who will be TES's mid laner next year?

"Could it really be a broiler chicken?"

The second most popular post: "Scout isn't leaving, is he? EDG fans are starting to panic."

The third most popular post: "If Xiaohu is really sold, is RNG still going to be a team?"

The comments section was in complete chaos.

JDG fans are celebrating, TES fans are worried, EDG fans are stubbornly refusing to admit defeat, and RNG fans are criticizing the management.

There's another thread discussing this:

It seems like TES's youth academy has produced a prodigy; even Qingtian can't beat him. Will he be promoted to the first team next season?

There were very few replies below.

Compared to a trending topic like the transfer of Zuo Shou, news about a youth training player doesn't even make a ripple.

Li Hu smiled and turned off his phone.

For these transfer window gossip stories, others rely on whistleblower bloggers and industry connections to piece together the truth.

He's different; he truly knows.

Li Hu was even confident that if he were to follow in the footsteps of Teacher Da B and start a live stream to capitalize on this wave of traffic...

His revelations are definitely more accurate than those of Teacher B.

JDG has indeed assembled a super team: Knight, Ruler, Kanavi, 369, and Missing.

This lineup dominated the LPL in 2023 and became the king of the league.

Having won the Spring Split Championship, the MSI Championship, and the Summer Split Championship, they are just one step away from completing their path to Gold.

Unfortunately, in the S13 semifinals, Faker's Azir's "Forbidden Wall" brought JDG back to reality, causing them to fall in the final four.

Tian has indeed renewed his contract with TES, but it won't be officially announced now; it will be delayed for a while longer.

Rookie did indeed come, forming an "old-timer all-star team" with JKL.

They performed strongly in the regular season, but were completely eliminated in the playoffs, failing to even qualify for the S13 World Championship.

"As for Scout... sigh."

He was thinking about the decision Scout would make next.

Back in 21, when EDG had just won the championship, Scout secretly signed a contract with the LCK team KT without EDG's knowledge.

When KT submitted their roster to the league, EDG discovered that their championship-winning mid laner was already under contract.

At that time, EDG had just won the championship and was in a good mood. Like a protective parent, they paid eight million yuan in breach of contract fees for this troublesome child.

But this year, Scout made another series of blunders.

After wandering around the LCK for a while without finding a suitable team, he decided to go to LNG rather than return to EDG.

Ultimately, after much clamor from the fans, EDG backed down and took legal action.

The women successfully got their husbands to pay a penalty of 33.51 million yuan for breach of contract.

This sets a record that is unprecedented and will never be repeated in the history of LPL transfers.

"Is Scout still in contact with LCK teams?"

Li Hu muttered to himself, "I still have no idea how big a pit I'm about to fall into."

As for Xiaohu? RNG will sell him to WBG to pay off their debts.

He played with TheShy for a year, then TheShy left the team, and WBG completely disbanded and reorganized.

Actually, the most surprising thing should be BLG this year.

However, none of this concerns him.

The transfer window was a bloodbath, with multi-million dollar contracts.

Those power struggles and infighting among wealthy families have nothing to do with him now.

He was just a random player who hadn't even signed a formal contract yet, living in TES's dormitory and surviving on pork trotter rice every day.

Li Hu thought to himself, a smile playing on his lips.

When he truly achieves the status of a big star, people will naturally start talking about him.

They discussed which team he should join, his market value, and whether he could win a championship.

He turned over, his gaze falling on the golden illustration on the side of his field of vision.

诺手41%、鳄鱼30%、纳尔23%、剑姬32%、格温40%、剑魔28%。

These past few days, he's practically drained the sunshine dry.

Every day he would drag me into solo matches, every day I would get killed in different ways, and every day he would treat me to pork trotter rice.

Qingtian's training volume tripled, and she lost at least a few pounds from her large stomach, and even the fat on her face slimmed down.

"If you keep training like this, Brother Qingtian will become as skinny as Brother Tian."

Li Hu felt a silent pang of guilt for 0.3 seconds before opening the encyclopedia and starting to plan.

The efficiency of a professional athlete's whip is truly outrageous.

Sunny's Darius skill level is far superior to those solo queue kings on the Rift.

Every time I get solo killed by his Darius, the details and awareness I learn from him become even more precise.

A 41% Darius profile means that Li Hu has nearly half of the professional-level understanding of this hero's skill combos, bloodrage management, and laning strategy.

If he gets pumped up by Qingtian for another month, he'll soon be able to reach 100%.

By then, his Darius skill level will surpass that of Sunny himself.

"Others' peak is my starting point, that feels good."

Li Hu was about to close his eyes and go to sleep when his phone suddenly vibrated.

He picked it up and saw it was a WeChat message from Guo Hao.

He and Guo Hao had been friends for the past few days, but they hadn't really chatted much.

[Guo Hao]: Xiao Li, come to the second team's training room.

[Guo Hao]: I've arranged a training match for the first team.

[Guo Hao]: You play this match.
