Chapter 166, t.g.a Winter Grand Prix (I)

After accidentally winning the national championship of the university league, several people from the school team immediately rushed over to hug Liu Chuan after they stepped off the stage. Everyone knows that the biggest contributor to the school team from the South China competition area to this point today is definitely their coach Liu Chuan!

Liu Chuan also opened his arms generously to hug each contestant. Jiang Xue consciously skipped this procedure because she was a girl. But when it was Wu Zewen's turn, the two of them looked at each other, and their hearts were thrilled, and they felt a little embarrassed.

There were so many classmates watching next to him, and Liu Chuan had to pretend to be calm and stretch out his hand. Wu Zewen also walked to him calmly with a calm expression. Liu Chuan hugged Wu Zewen gently as if he was hugging other contestants, and whispered: "Good."

Smelling the familiar smell on his body, Wu Zewen felt his heart beating as fast as a drum. This person's hug was still as warm as in his memory, making people not want to let go.

Liu Chuan's arms also tightened a little. If there weren't so many classmates next to him, he would really want to hug Wu Zewen for a while. Wu Zewen is still wearing a white sweater today, furry, and it feels so great to hold it in his arms...

Although the hug was about to part with each other, they looked away with each other's eyes guiltily.

Liu Chuan turned around and smiled at everyone and said, "Let's take a break first and attend the award ceremony later. After receiving the award, Teacher Lin will invite us to dinner."

Zhou Xuehai and Zhuo Wenchao went to the bathroom together. Li Xiang leaned into Liu Chuan's ear and asked, "I seemed to see Qin Ye just now. Has he just arrived?"

Liu Chuan said: "Well, he has been watching the game and he praises you for making great progress."

Li Xiang chuckled and scratched his head, looked around and asked, "Then where is he going now?"

Liu Chuan said: "He left first after the game. I am afraid that our school team will gather, so it will be inconvenient for him to be there."

Li Xiang's expression couldn't hide his loss: "Oh..."

Liu Chuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Qin Ye plans to stay in Beijing for a few more days. He will leave after watching the opening ceremony of the T.G.a Grand Prix. I asked him to come out tomorrow. Zewen, and let's go for a meal together."

Li Xiang's expression immediately turned 180 degrees: "That's great!"

The award ceremony began ten minutes later. The C-College Team members took the stage under Zhuo Wenchao's leadership. The award presenters gave them the golden custom trophy and also gave them a prize of 100,000 yuan. Although 100,000 yuan is too small compared to the prize of the professional league, it is also a considerable amount for college students. The prize money for this competition was directly divided by the contestants, and in order to encourage them, the school will also give each contestant another 5,000 yuan bonus. Everyone held the trophy of the first college league championship, and their expressions were very happy.

The host handed the microphone to interview the captain: "I ran from the South China competition area to Beijing to play the competition and won the championship. Do you have any thoughts?"

"We are all very happy!" Zhuo Wenchao said: "I would like to thank someone here, that is our coach! Thank you for your coach for being with us for practicing for the past few months, spurring us and encouraging us! Without a coach, there would be no today of our school team!"

The audience was curious about who the coach was. However, when the camera camera followed Zhuo Wenchao's eyes and turned to a corner of the backstage, they found that there was no coach there. Therefore, who the coach of C University was the biggest mystery that cannot be solved in this college league.

Backstage, Xu Xiaoqi looked up at Liu Chuan: "Why did you run away? The people from your school team are praising you!"

Liu Chuan smiled and said, "I don't need to show off in this kind of occasion."

Xu Xiaoqi asked: "Is your name not on the certificate of honor?"

Liu Chuan said: "This is nothing to do."

He helped the school team just because this is his alma mater. He wanted to do his best for his alma mater, and that's all.

Liu Chuan was not used to being praised as a hero.

After the award ceremony, everyone had a big meal under the leadership of Teacher Lin. Several people made an appointment to stay in Beijing for a few more days to visit famous attractions. Liu Chuan, Wu Zewen and Li Xiang had something to do and didn't want to go. The remaining four people happily went out with Teacher Lin.

The college league came to an end, and followed by the t.g.a Winter Grand Prix - a winter feast in the domestic e-sports field.

The opening ceremony of the t.g.a Winter Grand Prix is ​​at 7 pm on January 12, the next night.

Qin Ye wanted to go to see the opening ceremony, but unfortunately he had just returned to China but failed to book tickets. Now the tickets on the Internet have been stolen. Liu Chuan asked Xu Xiaoqi. This girl really had a way, so she asked for four tickets from her senior brother Lu Yan and secretly gave them to Liu Chuan.

Only then did Liu Chuan send a text message to Wu Zewen, Li Xiang and Qin Ye, and asked the three of them to meet up the next morning.

The next morning, it suddenly started snowing in Beijing.

This is the first snow since the beginning of winter. The falling snow has covered the entire capital. When Liu Chuan got up, he looked out the window and found that there was a white snow scene outside. The so-called "auspicious snow indicates a good harvest". It is snowing at this time, and it always feels like a good omen.

After washing his face, he put on his clothes and went out. Liu Xiaomeng was busy building snowmen in the yard with gloves. The snowmen he made was extremely ugly. The word "chuan" was written on his body, which was obviously mocking her brother. Liu Chuan smiled, pinched a little snowball and walked quietly behind her, and grabbed her collar and stuffed the snowball into her neck...

“Ahhhh——”

Liu Xiaomeng's screams like a pig slaughtered in his ears.

When he turned around, the culprit had disappeared like a gust of wind, making Liu Xiaomeng very angry.

Liu Chuan is not only fast in hand speed, but also first-class in action.

After bullying his sister, Liu Chuan drove out happily. The snow outside was not thick. He planned to pick up Wu Zewen first, and then go to the hotel to pick up Li Xiang and Qin Ye respectively, which was just right.

Liu Chuan parked the car at the entrance of the community. Wu Zewen ran over quickly. Liu Chuan opened the car door for him. Wu Zewen immediately got into the car, obviously afraid of the cold.

His glasses were stained with a layer of mist due to the difference in temperature. Liu Chuan thoughtfully raised the temperature of the air conditioner. Seeing that he was only wearing a sweater and a coat, he couldn't help asking, "Are you not cold to wear so little?"

Wu Zewen said: "Fortunately, I wore two sweaters and there was a layer of warm cotton vest inside."

He is relatively thin. Even though he wears a lot, he still looks slender. Today he changed into a beige sweater. The turtle-collared sweater surrounded his entire neck, revealing only one face. When he lowered his head, his chin would sink into the sweater...

Wu Zewen lowered his head and wiped his glasses seriously. Liu Chuan glanced at his side face, smiled slightly, and started the car.

It was still snowing outside, and Liu Chuan deliberately slowed down while driving. Wu Zewen didn't want to disturb him, so he took out his iPad and lowered his head to study the schedule of T.g.a. Liu Chuan came over and glanced and asked, "Is the schedule out?"

Wu Zewen hurriedly pushed him: "Please focus on looking ahead and I'll tell you."

Liu Chuan immediately obediently looked at the road ahead, and Wu Zewen read it to him one by one: "The Grand Prix lasted for 10 days from January 12 to 22. The opening ceremony was the night of the 12th. The 13th and 14th were the races of the men's, women's groups, and team groups. The 15th and 16th were the races of the mobile phone group of the rhythm master and the tablet group..."

Liu Chuan asked: "You are reporting to the tablet group, right? Do you start comparing on the morning of the 16th?"

Wu Zewen nodded: "Well, there are 16 people from all over the country who have met the standards and entered the finals. They are divided into four groups to play the designated repertoire. According to the ranking of the results, the competition will start on the morning of the 16th, and the competition will be completed in one day."

This kind of single-player competition is usually the same. We can directly rank the championship by the results. In one day, Liu Chuan led the team to play t.g.a, because t.g.a is a comprehensive e-sports competition, and there are many competition events. He rarely pays attention to these small events. However, this year, his sisters Liu Xiaomeng and Wu Zewen participated in the rhythm master competition, and he couldn't help but care and said, "Then I will pick you up with Xiaomeng on the morning of the 16th and send you two to the venue."

Wu Zewen nodded and continued, "The big events like Wulin and Miracles start to play group stages on January 13 and end until the end on January 22." Wu Zewen turned around and asked, "Is the match system of Wulin different from the official league?"

Although he doesn't know t.g.a, the official Wulin Professional League has to play two* cycles in a season and it takes nearly three months to finish the t.g.a Grand Prix in ten days, which must be a different competition system.

Liu Chuan replied: "t.g.a only plays in the ring, there is no team battle, and there is no cycle between teams. It is to draw lots to play in group matches. Four groups select the quarterfinals and then eliminate the championship. It can be finished in two weeks."

Wu Zewen said in surprise: "Don't you need to fight a team battle?"

Liu Chuan nodded: "It is a 5-to-5-player Kof competition system, that is, both sides send 5 people to the field to fight the rounds, and the last side will win. The two candidates are added to the official league ring match, but the complex team battle is removed, and the competition time is short, which looks more intense... However, there are too many factors that make the 5-player unstable in the ring. If one side has a one-on-one expert, the chance of winning will be very high."

Liu Chuan paused and continued: "However, t.g.a is actually a touchstone for newcomers in the martial arts world. Basically, rookies from major teams must start with t.g.a. Big gods like Wheel God and Xiaolu generally do not participate in t.g.a. They will give opportunities to newcomers in the team. Professional teams pay more attention to the results of the official professional league. t.g.a is a transitional game between two seasons, so many captains like to hone newcomers on t.g.a."

Wu Zewen became more and more interested in the more he listened: "So, there will be many new faces in this t.g.a Grand Prix?"

Seeing his eyes shiny, Liu Chuan couldn't help but smile and said, "If you are interested, you can go with me to see it. Those apprentices who have been hiding for a long time will be time to appear. These newcomers may become our strongest opponents in a year."

The two chatted casually and soon arrived at the hotel. Liu Chuan called Li Xiang to come down, and then drove to pick up Qin Ye.

Qin Ye is still dressed in a simple and capable outfit today. Although it is winter, he does not wear a down jacket. He prefers textured and beautiful coats. The knee-length coat paired with slim trousers makes his figure look even more straight and slender. He is wearing leather boots, and the snow creaking when walking. His hands are stuffed in the pocket of the coat. The expression on his face is cold and indifferent. The pride that comes from his bones makes the man look extremely imposing.

Even if he didn't carry a penny, just straightening his back and walking into a high-end brand store would probably scare many salesmen.

The moment Li Xiang saw Qin Ye, his eyes could not move. He kept watching him walk from the hotel door to the car, and then actively got out of the car to help him open the door. His enthusiastic and attentive appearance was like a slutty bodyguard.

Liu Chuan saw Li Xiang laughing so brightly from the rearview mirror, and couldn't help but come to Wu Zewen's ear and joked: "Li Xiang is indeed a brainless fan."

Wu Zewen nodded in agreement.

Li Xiang brought Qin Ye into the car, and then he trotted and got into the car. The two of them sat in the back seat together. Li Xiang smiled and said, "Long time no see Qin Ye, are you doing well abroad?"

Qin Ye said: "It's okay."

Li Xiang continued to ask: "Have you ever visited the attractions I told you? Have you taken photos?"

Qin Ye said lightly: "I went to see it, but the photos were not taken."

Every time he took a photo, his face turned stiff like a statue. This is why he didn't like to shoot advertisements with Yang Jian when he was in the Chang'an team.

Liu Chuan started the car and said, "Let's go for dinner first. It's cold, how about eating hot pot?"

Li Xiang said: "I have no objection."

Qin Ye said: "Whatever."

Wu Zewen also expressed his no objection with his eyes, so Liu Chuan drove the three of them to a familiar hotpot restaurant.

At this time, there were not many people in the hot pot restaurant. The four of them found a corner seat to sit down. Liu Chuan and Wu Zewen sat in the same row, and Li Xiang and Qin Ye sat in the same row. In order to take care of everyone's taste, Liu Chuan ordered a double pot bottom. Qin Ye and Li Xiang were both very spicy. Wu Zewen prefers lightness. Liu Chuan accompanied Wu Zewen to eat the light-tasting seafood pot bottom. The four of them happily turned the hot pot for 90 degrees. The spicy soup base was aimed at Li Xiang and Qin Ye, and the seafood soup base was aimed at Liu Chuan and Wu Zewen.

The mutton and beef in this restaurant are very fresh. They are cut into thin slices and placed in a boiling pot and then rinse it. It is a rare pleasure to get together with friends in the middle of winter and eat hot hot pot.

Li Xiang actively cooked things for Qin Ye, and put them on his plate after cooking. Qin Ye didn't need to do anything at all, just eating it.

Qin Ye was also happy to be idle. After thanking Li Xiang, he ate what he cooked with peace of mind.

Seeing that Wu Zewen's glasses were blocked by the steaming heat, Liu Chuan couldn't help but say, "What do you want to eat, I'll cook it for you."

After saying that, he imitated Li Xiang and cooked a bunch of things in seafood soup. After it was cooked, he scooped them out for Wu Zewen to eat. Wu Zewen didn't have to come over and cook them by himself, and his glasses would not be blocked by the heat. He was in a good mood and ate the food that Liu Chuan kept handing over.

The four of them ate hot pot in a harmonious atmosphere. Liu Chuan and Li Xiang were very active in taking care of the people around them. At that moment, they didn't find any problems with this way of getting along. Li Xiang only felt that taking care of Qin Ye was an honor for him, but Liu Chuan felt that it was appropriate to cook something for Wu Zewen. After all, Zewen was inconvenient to wear glasses...

The master and apprentice were busy cooking, while Qin Ye and Wu Zewen ate while chatting.

Qin Ye said: "I came to watch yesterday's college league. Zewen, your playing style combines the two styles of Zhang Shuping and Su Shilun, right?"

Wu Zewen nodded: "Well, I'm trying to find a balance point from the two styles of play, and I'm still exploring it now."

Qin Ye said appreciatively: "Your idea is pretty good. The five poisons can't be limited to the two modes of protecting pets and sacrifice. They can be used flexibly. However, you are still too lacking in experience. When there was a problem with the keyboard, you should have noticed it yourself."

Qin Ye always spoke directly, Wu Zewen felt a little embarrassed and explained seriously: "When I was training before, I used the school team's keyboard, but I didn't react after changing the keyboard. At that time, I just felt that my skills were always inaccurate, and I thought it was my own problem."

Qin Ye said: "With this experience, you will know in the future." After that, he looked at Li Xiang again, "You are not very good at debugging the keyboard, right? Let Liu Chuan teach you in the future, you have to play in the official professional league. Before each game, the players have to debug the keyboard by themselves."

Li Xiang hurriedly interrupted: "We should bring our own peripherals to enter the venue in the future. The keyboard provided by the official is prone to problems, which is really uneasy."

"The professional league is much more formal, and the keyboard is sponsored by the manufacturer, so the probability of problems is relatively small." Liu Chuan paused and continued, "However, Li Xiang is right. Professional players usually come with their own peripherals. Using a convenient keyboard, they will naturally be more stable to play."

Wu Zewen asked: "Then our team also wants to buy a batch of new keyboards, right?"
To be continued...
