The online interview continued. The host eagerly asked the five about their opinions on the newest updates within the game. Because Chang Yifeng was the team captain of Team Legends, the focus of the camera was on his face. His handsome young face flashed on the screen with black headphones on his neck. Beside him sat his teammates wearing their black uniforms.
"We heard that it took six months for the -company name- to finish the newest UI and UX of Hunt: For the Legion. It has been the talk on Weibo for weeks. Can you tell us what we should expect with these updates?"
"We fixed some bugs that cause lagging and affecting the gameplay of our players. As for the updates, I'm pretty sure they would love to see new maps and new sets of quests to be conquered. There are also new costumes and weapons can be achieved by doing extra quests on the board," Chang Yifeng calmly replied.
"Right? So for this new season, the Team Legends will stream their first-ever live battle. They will be the first one to play the newest Hunt: For the Legion. Are you excited?" The host lifted the mood by turning her attention to the live audience. Screaming fans answered her question. "Now, it's time to log in. Please don't forget to send gifts to your favorite team!"
Team Legends logged in to their respective accounts and waited as the countdown for the next season start. With one minute remaining, the servers and the game were flooded by netizens and players.
Back to the inn where Shen Yi and Lu Xinyi were staying, the couple sat silently, staring at the countdown timer at the screen. Once the season officially started, Shen Yi invited his wife and the others to form a new team that they easily accepted.
"What name should we go for?" Shen Xue asked.
Lu Xinyi took a peek over her husband's shoulder before moving forward inputting the name she wanted on the team with a grin. Shen Yi raised a brow but didn't comment on his wife's playfulness today.
"League of Evil? Eh? Are we some kind of supervillain today?" Kang Wei laughed when he saw what their young madam chose.
"What? Villains are cooler than heroes!" Lu Xinyi reasoned out.
On the screen, they could see Chang Yifeng's arrogant face smiling back at the camera. The matching up for team battles had started. Several teams were flashed on the screen while the Team Legends waited for their first opponents.
The rotation of the names stopped and Shen Yi's team was chosen as Team Legends opponent. Chang Yifeng's eye twitched when he saw the familiar IGN as League of Evil's captain. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
TheLordofHell. Wasn't this the same newbie who snubbed his game request?
'You got some balls to show yourself,' Chang Yifeng inwardly snorted.
Was it fate that brought this bastard in his presence again? Ah, he would show this arrogant newbie the difference between a god and peasant.
As Chang Yifeng gloated on how he would get even with Shen Yi, the latter watched with amusement as his prey kept oblivious on what would befall on him. Chang Yifeng was so full of himself.
"I wanna slap his grin out of his face! Legends, my ass! Legendary cheaters, if you'll ask me." His younger brother grumbled across him.
"Calm down, Xue. Just do your best and kick their asses," Lu Xinyi shook her head.
"I will surely do."
"Ah, two supreme commanders, one grandmaster, and two newbies. Interesting lineup, they got here." One of Chang Yifeng's teammates commented.
Chang Yifeng shrugged and prepared to pick up the equipment and gear. "Three high-ranking players with two amateurs. Is this some kind of a joke?"
"The only joke you'll be seeing today would be yourself."
It was Shen Yi. He was wearing his headphones and entered the game with his team.
"Since you think you're above us, let's see how you'll fall from your high horses." His deep baritone voice resounded within the game. His legs were crossed as he waited for the battle to start. Beside him sat Lu Xinyi munching on another snack that her brother gave her.
The screen was instantly flooded with comments from netizens.
'Issuing a challenge against a god?!'
'Who's this brave newbie?'
'Gah! It's TheLordofHell! A top rookie from S89?!'
'What about it? He's just a newbie for goodness sake!'
'Yes, a newbie. A newbie who has recently conquered all available maps and quests! A super rookie!'
"What a brave newbie. Are you sure you want to challenge us? I think you should pick up your opponents smartly. Your HP will be drained too fast if you let your confidence get into you," Chang Yifeng replied arrogantly.
He couldn't wait for the game to start so he could crush this TheLordofHell. After this newbie declined all of his requests, this player announced in the public chat room that most players had been worshipping a false god. This comment reached Chang Yifeng, and his blood boiled in anger.
"You talk too much," Shen Yi spat out, "Or is it that you are chickening out and don't want to lose to a mere 'newbie'?"
That was enough for Chang Yifeng to grit his teeth and clench his fists below the table.
"Don't blame me and say I didn't warn you."
His team logged in and joined the team battle. The screen now showed two different POV from both teams. Because the event was inter-server, anyone can make their own team and join this overall ranking game. Netizens from different parts of the country logged in only to see their 'God' taking the lead for this season.
For Chang Yifeng to be challenged by a newbie, it wouldn't do any good if he declined Shen Yi's challenge. If only he took time to check Shen Yi's profile, he wouldn't dare to look down on him. Alas, his overconfidence and arrogance would cause his own downfall.
"Just teach him a lesson, Yifeng. One should know when to stop being an ass."
Shen Yi took a slayer as his champion while Lu Xinyi resorted on getting a marksman that could also serve as an AOE damager during the game. Kang Wei picked his mage, and their Second Master chose his fighter.
The countdown timer reached zero, and both teams started to move. Shen Yi started collecting the basic equipment he needed while his teammates keep off the minions out of their one by one, he added buffs to his team until they reached a certain level to use their skills.
Chang Yifeng focused his attention to this TheLordofHell throughout the game that when he reached the mid-lane, Kang Wei had stunned his champion, giving Shen Yi an opportunity to insta-kill him at once.
Chang Yifeng stared blankly at his screen, watching his champion fell in a bloody mess. Did that just happen? A newbie had insta-killed him in a few seconds? His hand hovered in his keyboard. He was originally planning to make TheLordofHell fall into a daze before slashing him with attacks.
TheLordofHell's champion had hidden itself from the crowd and stealth throughout the map, farming golds and equipment for his build. Chang Yifeng waited for a time for Shen Yi to reappear again to kill him.
His sudden death and the shock had messed their team play. In just a span of three minutes, the League of Evil had gunned the members of Team Legends down 20 times to win the round. The enemy team only suffered less than ten collective deaths.
He lost to a newbie?
In front of everyone, he lost?
There were a few moments of silence in the chat room before a barrage of messages hit the game.
'Are my eyes deceiving me, or Chang Yifeng was really insta-killed by a rookie?'
'You aren't seeing things, brother! He was killed even before he makes a move.'
'God of Legion, my ass! He was so weak in front of my lord!'
'He was so full of himself earlier. What did he say again: 'Don't blame me and say I didn't warn you'?'
'A true master showed himself, ahh…'
A sound of laughter suddenly took their attention. It wasn't from TheLordofHell earlier.
"I should be the one who should remind you, Mr. Chang," A new IGN flashed on their lower screen. The player came from Shen Yi's team and went by the name 'IShipLTXandNX'. "Didn't I tell you to watch your back?"
"You…" Her voice sounded familiar to Chang Yifeng. It took several seconds before it clicked to his mind who it was. "You planned this?"
"Na-ahhh…" Lu Xinyi denied. It wasn't her who took the initiative to come after him. "Take a guess who did…"
The comment section was once again flooded by messages from fans.
'So they know each other?'
'Hey, hey! Look at the breaking news! Quick!'
Everyone then turned their attention to the newsbreak on their TVs and online news.
