She chose the strategy with the most bullet comments.

It seems like WLD is missing someone?

correct!

Where's Kindred?!

The three commentators glanced at the minimap out of the corner of their eyes and their eyes widened instantly when they spotted Kindred's location.

The director coincidentally showed a small window displaying Kindred, who had somehow left the front line and headed straight for the main crystal.

"Kindred has gone to raid the enemy base! RT doesn't seem to have realized it yet!!"

"After Vayne died, the remaining three members of WLD's front line didn't deal much damage. If this continued, they would be picked off one by one by Ekko and Ezreal. But! RT noticed something was wrong. Lux was already rushing back!"

"Galio took the most damage and died first. Gragas used his life to keep people in place but also followed suit. Karma was still using her RQ to slow and harass Ekko, but she was also taken down by Ekko's combo after he finished using his abilities!"

Everyone is stalling for time.

"..."

As WLD's four members were killed, a small window in the corner quickly expanded to replace the front view. After zooming in, it could be seen that RT's main crystal had less than half its health remaining.

The three RT members rushing back were practically turning into frantic emperors, sprinting for their lives.

However, none of them had a reliable hard CC that prevented Kindred from destroying the tower. Ekko's W was pulled away by Kindred's displacement, and Kindred's Lamb Spirit activated at half health. Every attack on the Nexus felt like a knife slashing through the hearts of everyone in RT.

As the Sheep Spirit's Breath lasted until it exploded, restoring health to those inside, the RT base was completely wiped out of its last bit of health!

287. Is there anything you'd like to say?

"It's over! WLD defeated RT 3-1 to become the first champion of the League of Legends LPL region!!"

Congratulations to Wuhan Wild Dream!

"..."

On stage, the beautiful girls excitedly embraced each other, shouting out their joy and happiness.

Su Mu was caught off guard by Bai Wei's sudden collision and almost lost his balance. Fortunately, there were two people behind him who exerted force, which helped to balance his body and keep him in place.

Then, he found himself surrounded by the women.

"Aaaaah! We won!"

"Calm down, calm down, don't forget the post-match ceremony."

"I won't say much, Brother Mu and Sister Wei are awesome!"

"Heh... In team games, the two of us can't amount to much without teammates." Su Mu chuckled lightly. "Alright, let go of each other and go over there."

Their light steps carried joy and the composure of victory, while Deng Jiayu and her companions seemed a little impatient.

The RT players all wore expressions of disappointment and resentment, some even staring blankly at the word "defeat" on the screen until someone next to them reminded them.

Looking at the five WLD members walking towards them from the other side, his eyes were filled with complex emotions.

So many months of hard work, yet they fell on the final battlefield…

As a veteran player who has transitioned to a new role, Youzi adjusted his mindset the fastest among all the players. With a wry smile on his face, he managed a congratulatory gesture, and while holding Su Mu's hand, he gently gave her a hug.

Congratulations!

"We will perform to the standard expected of the number one seed on the world stage and will not disgrace the LPL." Su Mu did not offer any polite words of thanks.

For a pure professional player like Youzi, who is already famous and has a high level of popularity, empty words are meaningless.

Youzi nodded and then took Yi Lian's hand.

As she watched Su Mu and the others leave their seating area and head to the center of the stage to receive the attention of the entire audience, a hint of loneliness still flashed in her eyes.

Through this BO5 series of four games, she clearly felt the gap between herself and young players like Su Mu.

It's not something innate, but a fate that no professional player can escape... age.

As people get older, their competitive performance will decline due to their physical limitations, and this decline is irreversible.

It's been over two years since I transitioned to being a professional League of Legends player...

Having already missed her first regional championship, how many more years of her professional career will she have left if she can't achieve anything in the upcoming world championships?

"WLD is about to lift their Silver Dragon trophy, proving that they are the undisputed champions of the LPL this year! Congratulations to WLD!"

The narrator's voice was clear and easy to hear. Su Mu and the others exchanged smiles and together raised the dazzling trophy in the center of the stage.

Golden rain fell on the stage, congratulating the victory.

Setting down the trophy, Su Mu stared blankly at the falling gold, involuntarily reaching out to catch it, his face filled with nostalgia and melancholy, yet also a sense of relief.

She has once again achieved her goal. Her next goal is to make a name for herself on the world stage, defeat all the strong opponents from around the world, and lift the more prestigious championship trophy.

Memories of the past seem vivid in my mind, evoking a sense of deep emotion.

Bai Wei turned her joyful gaze to the side and stared blankly at Su Mu's dazed expression.

Her perfect profile, illuminated by the light, exuded immense charm at that moment.

Mu Mu…you’ve achieved the initial goal you set…and I…did it too…

With a gentle smile, Bai Wei reached out and brushed away the golden wisps falling from Su Mu's head. The warm and beautiful scene made many fans cheer excitedly.

But most people understood why Su Mu had that expression.

So much time has passed, and anyone who follows Su Mu knows about her difficult past.

He left his hometown at a young age and devoted himself to e-sports with great enthusiasm, but wasted more than two precious years of his life.

For an esports player, having the skill but being unable to compete is like the cruelest torture.

After returning to China, I transitioned from FPS to MOBA, putting in a lot of hard work and sweat, and now I'm finally reaping the rewards of victory. It really wasn't easy.

[5555... Seeing Mu Ge's wistful expression, I actually had the urge to drop my little pearl.]

The journey was too tortuous; not everyone has the courage to change themselves like Brother Mu.

Putting everything else aside, Mu Ge is a man of his word. A score of 3-1 is a score of 3-1. He will prove with his strength who is the undisputed champion of the LPL.

Now you know how valuable the national college league championship is, right? You know that beating RT in the regular season wasn't done through any underhanded means, right?

What kind of skill is it to win a championship by stealing someone else's home base?

【Oh my? There are actually haters who dare to jump out and attack against the tide. I admire your courage.】

Is it possible that if Vivian hadn't gone to steal the base, RT's front line would have collapsed even faster?

[Exactly, the haters are out of their minds. Everyone knows that Viktor's farm is the best in WLD. If she were there, Camille wouldn't last more than 3 seconds after entering the fight. With her ultimate, no one in WLD would die.]

The post-match interviews proceeded smoothly.

In this setting, Su Mu unusually refrained from saying anything quirky or offbeat, which made the host, Zi Ye, secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"The next question is, as the LPL's number one seed heading to Seoul, South Korea for the S1 World Championship, what would Su Mu like to say to everyone?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Mu pursed his lips, a rare occurrence for him, his thoughts churning.

Since arriving in this world and receiving and merging with the original body's memories, she is very clear about her current feelings.

She once represented PCL as a professional PUBG player and lived up to expectations by bringing back the championship trophy for the region and her team.

And now, we must retrace that winding path we have already taken.

"It sounds sentimental, but I'm reminded of my career over the years..."

"During my darkest time, I pulled myself out of the abyss because I knew there was no one who could lend me a hand; I had to become that person myself..."

"Since there is no light to guide me, I will become the light that pierces the darkness myself..."

"We are the first professional players in League of Legends, but the road ahead is not without its unknowns. The fighting spirit and faith of our predecessors will be our guiding light."

"If the road ahead is bumpy and full of darkness... I, Su, though not talented, am willing to be the light that guides everyone forward."

"The career of an esports player is short. I hope that in the near future, our successors will remember that when you step onto the stage and begin to climb that peak, what you are doing can be summed up in one sentence: win every game you can win!"

288. Theme song released.

A few days have passed.

Following the LPL's decision to crown its Summer Split champion, the results for other regions around the world have also been finalized.

Because the tournament format was still in its early stages of development, a total of 16 teams were able to participate in the World Championship in Season 1. Each of the four major regions had two slots, and the reason for this was largely determined by the size of the regions.

In some smaller regions, the total number of teams is less than half that of the major regions, so expecting to secure two slots is simply absurd.

Riot Games has officially announced the roster for the World Championship. The venue had been previously revealed to be Seoul, South Korea, but they have reiterated it and added more details such as the schedule.

LPL: Seed 1 WLD, Seed 2 RT.

LCK: Seed 1 DBZ, Seed 2 TKS.

LEC: Seed 1 OIP, Seed 2 K69.

LCS: Seed 1 GIM, Seed 2 FNS.

The remaining eight teams come from various smaller regions around the world, and their overall level is relatively average.

Su Mu knew that these regions would be collectively referred to as wildcards in the future, but that wasn't the point. The point was that he needed to pay extra attention to the teams from the Vietnam region.

I once heard a profound saying in my past life... Never underestimate the Vietnamese team, or you might end up like a male glutton.

The time difference between China and South Korea is very small, only one hour. Unlike some teams that need to adjust to the time difference, WLD has not yet departed for Seoul to prepare for the World Championship.

After winning the Summer Championship and completing all the tiring post-competition tasks, the team stayed in Shanghai for two full days to rest before returning to Wuhan.

After returning, while maintaining the daily training, we will add a new component: playing five practice matches with RT every day.

As for training matches with teams from other regions, no one has approached her yet, and Liu Keke won't take the initiative to arrange them; there's no need for that.

Riot Games officials were the first to send a notification.

It's very simple. Just shoot a short promotional video for each team. It's basically just a short video, and if you're quick, it can be done in a day.

However, there are other needs for Su Mu and Bai Wei.

Both of them were involved in the S1 theme song "Fearless," with one of them even serving as the main producer. Some segments required additional material from them.

Actually, there isn't much material related to Su Mu; what's in the trailer already covers most of it.

According to Elsa, the complete version is 95% finished. As long as the missing content is added, the post-production team can complete all the work within two hours and distribute the materials to various channels for release.

For Su Mu, it was just a matter of changing back into that outfit and striking a few poses; it wouldn't take much time.

It was five days later when everything was ready to be released.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, but just as WLD's plane landed in Seoul on time, the complete S1 theme song was released globally.

Those who had watched the trailer dozens or hundreds of times and waited anxiously flocked to the video account like parched land receiving rain.

The nearly five-minute feature film provided a double sensory experience for countless viewers.

The not-so-complex plot, aided by powerful post-production, perfectly masked all its minor flaws. Coupled with a song that fans consider divine, a soul-stirring chant that makes your brain tremble, all these factors contributed to the rapid spread of the S1 theme song.

When Su Mu walked out of the airport and turned on his phone to receive the push notification, the video had already been viewed over a million times on a single video website.

It has only been less than ten minutes since the theme song was released.

The terrifyingly high number of hundreds of thousands of viewers simultaneously nearly crashed the server at the mouse's house.

With a good production, excellent post-production, and the influence of a top-tier popular contestant, the speed at which the hype spread was comparable to the T-virus of the Umbrella Corporation in the movie.

There are no lines of dialogue; all that's there is an immersive melody and a chant that perfectly conveys emotions and lasts for over twenty seconds.

Even Su Mu's fans were shocked. Her lung capacity was ridiculously high. She could output for so long without taking a breath. She was incredibly steady.

It's important to understand that chanting is different from singing lyrics; if there are any signs of editing, anyone can hear it.

Su Mu's voice was naturally long and melodious; you could tell just by listening that she sang it all in one breath.

[Sobbing... I felt my whole soul tremble after listening to this, family members!]

That's what you call real strength!

I'm starting to look forward to the live version. Speaking of which, there's an opening ceremony for the finals, right? It wouldn't be too much to ask for the S1 theme song to be performed in the opening ceremony, would it?

[Based on some examples from individual game tournaments, there are roughly some.]

Urgent!

[Don't rush to conclusions, have you all forgotten that Brother Mu went to compete? If he makes it to the finals, where will he find the time to rehearse?]

Yes, there is a possibility of being eliminated before the finals... that would mean ending the competition early, giving you plenty of time.
