Gank Your Heart Recap

Episode 1 Recap

The 2018 Vancouver IConquer Global Finals made players all over the world excited. The two teams participating in this competition were the Legends team and the Tatans. The Mid, Gu Fang, Jungler, Huo Yao, Support Lin Yixuan, Top, Ji Xiangkong, Carry, Lu Feng, each of them was famous, especially the captain Gu Fang, he had previously represented China and won the global championship.

Qiu Ying's company took on the live broadcast of this match, but Qiu Ying, this scatterbrain, missed her flight to Vancouver. To catch the match, Qiu Ying didn't hesitate to spend a high price of thirty thousand yuan to buy a business class ticket and rushed to the match venue. After arriving in Vancouver, everything didn't go so smoothly either.

Rushing for the subway, grabbing a taxi, and finally, because she didn't have enough money, Qiu Ying literally ran to the match venue on foot. In between, she also had to hurry and change clothes and do makeup. By the time she arrived, the first game was already over, and Legends had lost to Tatans.

Missing the match was not the worst part; the worst part was that as the host of this match's live broadcast, she knew nothing about the game. Her live commentary could only repeat what the commentators and audience said. To make up for this mistake, Qiu Ying planned to pretend to be a staff member to get an exclusive interview with Gu Fang. Qiu Ying was so focused on the match that she didn't even realize her skirt was broken.

Halfway there, Ji Xiangkong noticed and thoughtfully tied his jacket around Qiu Ying's waist. The loss in the first game was not because Legends' strength was insufficient, but because Gu Fang's tenosynovitis had flared up again, and his hand kept shaking. As the team commander, Ji Xiangkong planned to adjust the tactics, letting Gu Fang play the Jungler position.

However, the company manager believed that Gu Fang was the player fans were most looking forward to, and all the audience were waiting for the first matchup between Gu Fang and Tatans' Mid player Jeffrey. This tactical adjustment was not allowed, so Ji Xiangkong could only think of another way. In the second game, Ji Xiangkong rushed to the Top lane by himself. Jeffrey immediately brought people to take Ji Xiangkong's first blood.

However, Ji Xiangkong, who had always been called a battlefield trickster, wasn't simply giving away first blood; it was a trap. After he used himself to lure the enemies over, the other teammates started attacking the enemies from various angles. This play successfully allowed Gu Fang to complete a triple kill. Just as Legends was about to instantly kill the opponents, Gu Fang's hand started shaking again, and his ultimate ability missed. This gave the opponents an opportunity.

Even though Ji Xiangkong and his teammates covered Gu Fang's retreat, many teammates sacrificed, Gu Fang's ultimate ability missed again, Legends lost the second game again. In the 2018 match, Legends was completely defeated. They left a strong statement: they wouldn't stop until they won the championship. After seeing the match results, Chinese fans were very heartbroken for Legends. When leaving the venue, fans also surrounded Legends' car and shouted "Go Legends!" .

Because there were too many fans, the car couldn't move, so Ji Xiangkong got out to comfort the fans. Manager Liu gave Qiu Ying another task. Because news of Gu Fang's retirement was circulating, the company wanted Qiu Ying to do a live interview before he retired. Just then, Qiu Ying saw Ji Xiangkong comforting the fans and felt he was a very approachable idol, so she decided to start with Ji Xiangkong. And Qiu Ying's method was also unusual; after seeing Ji Xiangkong's car approaching, she actually intended to deliberately get hit by the car.

Episode 2 Recap

Qiu Ying pretended that Ji Xiangkong's car hit her foot, and Qiu Ying said she was a fan of Gu Fang and wanted to meet him. As soon as Ji Xiangkong saw her like this, he knew Qiu Ying was trying to extort him, but to express his apology, Ji Xiangkong could only agree to Qiu Ying.

As soon as she got in the car, Ji Xiangkong deliberately started awkward small talk with Qiu Ying; he just wanted to see how long she would keep acting. Qiu Ying kept claiming she was a die-hard fan of Gu Fang, but Ji Xiangkong asked a few simple questions about Gu Fang, and Qiu Ying couldn't answer any of them. However, Qiu Ying also had something Ji Xiangkong wanted, which was the photos of him during the match.

This narcissistic guy, Ji Xiangkong, seeing how handsome he looked in the photos, immediately agreed to add Qiu Ying's WeChat and repeatedly told her to send the photos. But the next second, Ji Xiangkong turned cunning again; he dropped Qiu Ying in front of a building and told her Gu Fang was inside. As a result, after Qiu Ying went in, it was just a restaurant, and there was no one from the Legends team there.

Qiu Ying had no choice but to ask her colleague Yiyi for help. Yiyi followed Legends fans on Weibo, and photos on Weibo showed that the Legends team should currently be at the Vertex Bar in Vancouver. After the loss in the match, Gu Fang remained silent. The other teammates didn't dare to go over and talk, only Ji Xiangkong dared to comfort him. At this time, Qiu Ying also found Gu Fang.

She live-streamed the conversation between Gu Fang and Ji Xiangkong from a distance with her phone. Gu Fang was very self-blaming for not stepping up to support Ji Xiangkong's tactical adjustment. For the past four years, Gu Fang had only been getting runner-up titles. Having played games for ten years, Gu Fang was already past his IConquer condition, and this match was the biggest proof.

The loss of the match was due to Gu Fang, and if this was put online, it would definitely be a huge hit. But at the critical moment, Qiu Ying cut off the live stream signal, and the company's CEO Liu quickly called to urge her. Just as she was on the phone, the Legends teammates had already left, leaving only Ji Xiangkong to pay the bill.

Qiu Ying was originally looking for the Legends team, when suddenly a foreigner came over and tried to bully Qiu Ying. Luckily, Ji Xiangkong stepped in to save her, but Ji Xiangkong also knew Qiu Ying's purpose, so he told Qiu Ying to leave quickly. However, Qiu Ying didn't plan to give up. She gave her number to Ji Xiangkong and told him to definitely call her.

Gu Fang was now drunk, and the fan meeting that night was also canceled. Ji Xiangkong also didn't want Gu Fang to go and force a smile with the fans now. Ji Xiangkong also found a necklace in the car. Qiu Ying had accidentally dropped it, but Ji Xiangkong thought it was part of Qiu Ying's scheme.

When Qiu Ying ran to the fan meeting venue, she found out the event was canceled, but CEO Liu pressured Qiu Ying, demanding to see Qiu Ying live online within thirty seconds. However, the bullet comments were all unanimously asking to see Gu Fang. There was only Qiu Ying at the scene, and CEO Liu demanded that she couldn't turn off the live stream. Qiu Ying could only take an unusual approach, propping up her phone and starting to dance.

During this live stream, several teammates from the Legends team were also watching, and they really liked Qiu Ying. They wanted Ji Xiangkong to introduce her. Even more coincidentally, the dance Qiu Ying performed was very similar to that of Fu Miya, the person Ji Xiangkong liked. Remembering his past with Fu Miya, Ji Xiangkong angrily closed his laptop. After the live stream, Qiu Ying could only sit on the street and have a simple meal.

While she was packing her backpack, she accidentally discovered the clothes Ji Xiangkong had given her. Qiu Ying originally wanted to throw away the clothes, but the cold wind was blowing in the night, and this was the only clothing Qiu Ying had to keep warm. Just then, Yiyi called. Qiu Ying's dance wasn't in vain; the popularity of the live stream finally went up.

When Ji Xiangkong was scrolling through Weibo watching Qiu Ying's video, he suddenly found that the comment section below actually contained the conversation between him and Gu Fang. Qiu Ying had secretly filmed it, and CEO Liu didn't care what the video's subjects thought and directly uploaded the video online. Ji Xiangkong was very angry when he saw this. He sent Qiu Ying a text message asking her to come to the hotel to get the necklace.

In less than three seconds, Qiu Ying called back, but Ji Xiangkong deliberately didn't answer. Early the next morning, Qiu Ying rushed to the hotel. She tricked the front desk into telling her Ji Xiangkong's room number, but the front desk told her that Ji Xiangkong had checked out fifteen minutes earlier. Qiu Ying suddenly realized she had been tricked.

At this point, the front desk gave Qiu Ying another ray of hope, telling her to go check the parking lot. Indeed, Legends hadn't left yet. They met Tatans in the parking lot. This gave Qiu Ying another chance to secretly film. A private conversation between these two rival teams would attract even more attention from netizens.

Episode 3 Recap

While the Legends and Tatans were confronting each other, Qiu Ying again hid behind and secretly filmed. Because Jeffrey kept provoking, Ji Xiangkong almost got into a fight with him. The companies of the two teams rushed over to break up the fight, but the scene had already been filmed by passersby and tourists. After this video was put online by the company, it quickly reached the number one spot in real-time.

Qiao Xin, who had always looked down on Qiu Ying in the company, always prided herself on being number one in popularity. She was originally very unhappy about Qiu Ying going to Vancouver, but she didn't expect Qiu Ying to get first place this time as well. When the Legends team saw this video, the teammates all felt that Qiu Ying had been too unethical this time.

Now Qiu Ying's chance of getting her necklace back was even slimmer, because Ji Xiangkong didn't plan to answer her calls anymore. After Legends returned to the company, the company was empty; it seemed no one really cared about being second in the world. But Qiu Ying was different. As soon as Qiu Ying returned to the company, her good friend Yan Yan rushed out to congratulate her on becoming the company's number one.

After surpassing Qiao Xin, Qiu Ying was also very happy. CEO Liu brought the company members to warmly welcome Qiu Ying, and CEO Liu also specifically asked Qiu Ying to come to his office to share her experience. However, Qiu Ying's progress aroused Qiao Xin's jealousy, and she immediately called Manager Zhao of Legends' company. Then Manager Zhao called CEO Liu.

To resolve this matter, CEO Liu remembered that Qiao Xin had a good relationship with Manager Zhao, so he still needed Qiao Xin to step forward. This meant Qiu Ying's bonus was also gone. Qiao Xin originally wanted to mock Qiu Ying a few times, but after drinking the coffee Yan Yan bought, she almost spat out a mouthful of blood. This Qiao Xin had always bullied Yan Yan by making her run errands to buy coffee.

Then Qiu Ying gave Yan Yan an idea: add something to Qiao Xin's coffee - butter, beer, and coffee. After that, Qiao Xin never let Yan Yan buy coffee again. For the following days, Qiu Ying would have to face hardship, but luckily Yiyi was helping her. Moreover, Yiyi told Qiu Ying something: it turned out that Qiu Ying missing her flight wasn't a mistake, but Qiao Xin's doing. Qiu Ying told Yiyi about her feelings during the Vancouver trip.

Although she didn't understand the match, the enthusiasm of the Legends fans moved her to the point of almost crying. After hearing the conversation between Gu Fang and Ji Xiangkong, Qiu Ying finally understood that winning the championship was their dream. Qiu Ying was very envious that they could pursue their dreams without reservation, and even if they failed, they could cry it out.

As for Qiu Ying herself, ever since her father remarried, her dream had been to have her own home. So she worked desperately to earn money and saved up for a down payment to buy a house. This house was also Qiu Ying's promise to her mother. After this incident, Qiu Ying felt that she should not only work hard but also properly understand and learn about esports.

Qiu Ying's necklace was still with Ji Xiangkong; it was given to her by her mother. But Ji Xiangkong kept not answering calls or replying to texts. Qiu Ying decided to call every half an hour. At this time, Ji Xiangkong was looking for a friend to talk to about the match loss, and in the evening, his teammates even forced him into bed.

When Ji Xiangkong woke up in the morning, his teammate's foot was actually on Ji Xiangkong's pillow. Seeing this situation, Ji Xiangkong almost exploded. He quickly kicked his teammate off the bed and told him to wash the pillow. Ji Xiangkong didn't know while he was asleep that his phone kept ringing, all calls from Qiu Ying. In the morning, Qiu Ying also rushed to Legends' company to find Ji Xiangkong, but was stopped by the front desk.

However, serendipity struck. Lin Yixuan of Legends particularly liked Qiu Ying. After seeing Qiu Ying at the company, he immediately wanted to show off a bit and took Qiu Ying to find Ji Xiangkong. Along the way, Lin Yixuan put on a great display of authority in front of the employees before Qiu Ying. He also took Qiu Ying on a tour of Legends' company, which greatly broadened Qiu Ying's horizons.

After taking a big detour, Lin Yixuan finally took Qiu Ying to the gym to find Ji Xiangkong. Lin Yixuan also thoughtfully prepared a bottle of water for Qiu Ying to give to Ji Xiangkong. As soon as Qiu Ying went in, seeing Ji Xiangkong working out, he was simply walking hormones. Unknowingly, she drank the water herself first. After realizing it, Qiu Ying gave Ji Xiangkong a ninety-degree deep bow to apologize.

Her ultimate goal was still to get the necklace back. Ji Xiangkong planned to take a shower first and asked Qiu Ying to meet him at the coffee shop next door. After finishing his shower, Ji Xiangkong casually put on a shirt, but Lin Yixuan had prepared a bright pink jacket for him. Lin Yixuan originally wanted to tease Ji Xiangkong, but in the process of the two snatching it, they broke Qiu Ying's necklace. When Qiu Ying saw the broken necklace, she was very sad.

Episode 4 Recap

Qiu Ying cried when she saw that her mother's necklace had been broken by Ji Xiangkong. Ji Xiangkong thought it was just about money, but this necklace was priceless to Qiu Ying. To compensate Qiu Ying, Ji Xiangkong even said that Qiu Ying could make a request and he would fulfill it. But this made Qiu Ying feel he was even more unreliable, and she ran out crying.

Only then did Ji Xiangkong realize that perhaps keeping the necklace was not a trick by Qiu Ying. Ji Xiangkong didn't know how to resolve Qiu Ying's matter yet, when his Legends teammates sent him a message saying that Gu Fang was retiring. Ji Xiangkong quickly rushed downstairs to find Gu Fang. Gu Fang felt he was getting older and could no longer create miracles.

Gu Fang knew that Ji Xiangkong was nothing like the internet said, he wasn't a hand disability; his tactics were first-class, and Legends couldn't be without Ji Xiangkong. Gu Fang gave his championship ring to Ji Xiangkong, asking him to take over as the new captain of Legends, and hoped that Ji Xiangkong could lead Legends to win a second championship ring.

Ji Xiangkong also made a promise to Gu Fang that he would go all out to win the championship trophy. All members of Legends were reluctant to see Gu Fang leave. They hugged each other, preparing to sprint towards next year's championship trophy. In the evening, Ji Xiangkong rode his motorcycle alone, speeding through the empty streets. He recalled his first meeting with Gu Fang that year; Gu Fang was like a confidant who understood Ji Xiangkong's tactics.

It was also at that time that Gu Fang invited Ji Xiangkong to join the Legends team as the commander. After Gu Fang retired, Manager Zhao was also extremely anxious because no one was making money for him anymore. Manager Zhao wanted to promote Huo Yao as the new captain of Legends because Huo Yao had been with Legends the longest and had seniority.

However, Coach Luo felt that Huo Yao's golden age had passed; although he had performed steadily in the past two years, there had been no breakthrough. Manager Zhao and Coach Luo's conversation was overheard by Huo Yao, who had just entered. In subsequent training, Huo Yao was also preoccupied. At the board meeting, Gu Fang strongly recommended Ji Xiangkong, but Manager Zhao presented the data from the Vancouver match.

The data showed that Ji Xiangkong was killed multiple times, and among all players, Ji Xiangkong's performance was at the bottom. But Gu Fang knew that Ji Xiangkong was killed by the opponent solely because he was protecting him. To make the company trust Ji Xiangkong, Gu Fang revealed that Ji Xiangkong intended to change tactics. Coach Luo and Gu Fang approached it from a professional perspective, while Manager Zhao was concerned with the fan economy.

However, the chairman felt that Ji Xiangkong could be given a chance; coincidentally, the IConquer game was launching a closed beta test for a new version, and Ji Xiangkong could serve as the interim captain for this event. When Coach Luo and Gu Fang announced this to the Legends team, the others were quite happy, but Huo Yao was somewhat disappointed. After becoming captain, Ji Xiangkong immediately made three requests to the company.

First, serious training and no commercial activities; second, everyone must unconditionally cooperate with the tactics he and Coach Luo developed; third, hardware equipment must be upgraded and replaced. These points from Ji Xiangkong directly cut off Manager Zhao's financial path, making Manager Zhao furious and causing him to lose his temper in the office. However, one of Manager Zhao's subordinates gave him an idea: after Gu Fang left, Ji Xiangkong no longer had a strong backing.

If they were to find someone from outside who was both famous and capable to be the captain at this time, the chairman wouldn't say anything, and Manager Zhao's wealth would roll in again. This parachuted player was Pei Xi from the Witt team. Pei Xi was the biggest dark horse in the esports circle this year, the world's number one Mid. Manager Zhao planned to sign Pei Xi and make him the captain. However, Coach Luo strongly opposed this.

In this IConquer competition, the Witt team only finished fourth. While Pei Xi's personal operation was skillful enough, he was autocratic and didn't care about teamwork at all, which was why Witt was defeated. Coach Luo and Manager Zhao had conflicting views, and although the chairman would consider professional issues, he paid more attention to the company's cash flow, so he told Manager Zhao to talk to Pei Xi.

Qiu Ying was also under immense pressure; the popularity of the IConquer section she was responsible for had been dropping. Although Qiu Ying had been practicing heroes recently, her live broadcasts were still full of flaws. CEO Liu suggested that Qiu Ying combine her personal talents with match analysis and only gave her one month. It wasn't just Qiu Ying who was under pressure; Yiyi was also very dissatisfied with CEO Liu now and directly quit.

Yiyi suggested to Qiu Ying that if Qiu Ying went the professional route, one month would not be enough time at all. The only way was to team up with Ji Xiangkong; a beautiful host plus a famous esports player would definitely create a hot wave among IConquer fans. Qiu Ying could only brace herself to find Ji Xiangkong, but she didn't know how to speak. She talked to herself all the way, and passersby thought she was mentally ill.

Halfway there, Qiu Ying happened to see Ji Xiangkong in the restaurant ahead, but she still didn't dare to go say hello. Qiu Ying talking to herself and gesticulating outside the window made Ji Xiangkong feel that this girl was very cute. So he couldn't help but walk out to greet Qiu Ying. When Qiu Ying turned around, she bumped right into Ji Xiangkong.

Episode 5 Recap

Ji Xiangkong immediately guessed that Qiu Ying had come to make a request, and he even said that Qiu Ying was a drama queen. Qiu Ying didn't care what he thought; her request was that Ji Xiangkong could duo queue with her on a live stream. Ji Xiangkong didn't expect Qiu Ying's request to be so simple, so he agreed readily. As Qiu Ying turned to leave, a bicycle came by and almost hit her. Luckily, Ji Xiangkong pulled her.

With that pull, Qiu Ying fell directly into Ji Xiangkong's arms. This scene made Ji Xiangkong recall his past with Fu Miya, and he even thought Qiu Ying had been imitating Fu Miya all along. After Lu Yiyi quit her job, she had been on the interview trail, but didn't succeed with several companies. It wasn't until the Dynamic Esports Magazine called that Lu Yiyi saw hope.

When Lu Yiyi arrived at the magazine office, she found that the office life here was surprisingly laid-back. The receptionist told her that the magazine's Director Shi advocated a laid-back lifestyle. Lu Yiyi didn't know much about professional esports and thought this job was also going to fall through. However, this Director Shi was very satisfied with Lu Yiyi. The job didn't require overtime; all she needed to do was organize news from competitors.

From the boss down to the work, this magazine office was truly laid-back. Coach Luo found Gu Fang to discuss Pei Xi. This time, Manager Zhao came prepared, and the Chairman was also on his side, so Legends might not be able to accommodate Ji Xiangkong in the future. For Legends, and also for Ji Xiangkong, Gu Fang decided to leave the esports scene permanently, binding his image as the number one Mid player to Legends forever.

In the evening, Qiu Ying went on her live stream to announce that she would be duo queuing with an expert player tomorrow night. As soon as this news came out, not only were the fans buzzing, but even Qiao Xin took action. Qiao Xin said on her live stream that she had also arranged to duo queue with an expert player and wanted to compete with Qiu Ying.

The competition between these two beautiful streamers plus two mysterious expert players directly broke the all-time popularity record for the company's IConquer live stream platform. The time for the match arrived, and perhaps by coincidence, Qiao Xin's partner was Pei Xi. Before Pei Xi had even joined Legends, he was about to have a showdown with Ji Xiangkong ahead of time. In this match, Qiu Ying was almost driven crazy with frustration.

Not only was she crushed by Pei Xi and Qiao Xin teaming up, but Ji Xiangkong next to her didn't even save her. Seeing the comments below the live stream, everyone said Ji Xiangkong had a hand disability. Now Qiu Ying felt she had chosen the wrong teammate again. Halfway through the match, Lin Yixuan suddenly ran over and told Ji Xiangkong that Gu Fang was about to sign the agreement to permanently withdraw from the esports scene.

Hearing this news, Ji Xiangkong no longer had the heart to duo queue with Qiu Ying; he dropped the game and rushed towards the conference room. Just in the last second before Gu Fang signed, Ji Xiangkong snatched the agreement. He didn't want his position as captain to come about this way. Ji Xiangkong made a pledge to the company.

If they won the closed beta match, he would be the captain, and if they lost, he would leave the team. This played right into Manager Zhao's hands. Manager Zhao went along with him and agreed. As soon as Ji Xiangkong went AFK, he severely screwed over Qiu Ying. They played a few matches, and they lost miserably in every single one. Lu Yiyi felt that since Ji Xiangkong was so untrustworthy, he definitely shouldn't be let off lightly.

Qiu Ying and Lu Yiyi rushed to the Legends company to find Ji Xiangkong. Seeing this situation, Ji Xiangkong told Lin Yixuan to cover the rear and ran away himself first. Lin Yixuan thought he could stop these two young girls, but he didn't expect Lu Yiyi to have extraordinary skills; she knocked Lin Yixuan to the ground in a few moves. Qiu Ying chased Ji Xiangkong to the parking lot.

She had always felt that Ji Xiangkong was deliberately messing with her. Qiu Ying got angry and threw Ji Xiangkong's car keys into the trash can. This completely enraged Ji Xiangkong because there was also a photo of Fu Miya on the car keys. Ji Xiangkong didn't hold back with his words, saying Qiu Ying was riding on coattails and chasing popularity. After making Qiu Ying cry with anger, he rode away directly on his bike.

After returning home, Ji Xiangkong deleted Qiu Ying's phone number. After Qiu Ying returned home, she also felt sad about her failures over the past few days. She felt she had disappointed her mother. However, another big trap awaited Ji Xiangkong. To deal with them, Manager Zhao contacted the organizer and changed their opponent in the closed beta match to Xin Tu, deliberately not letting Legends know.

Ji Xiangkong had been leading his teammates to train according to the strategy of the original opponent, and it wasn't until the match that Ji Xiangkong realized he had been screwed over. On the scene, Ji Xiangkong and his teammates deliberately acted as if disaster was imminent, and Manager Zhao also pretended he didn't know, each one a bigger drama king than the last.

Episode 6 Recap

The IConquer closed beta match officially began. The first match was Weiteng against Xiaolong, and the second match was Legends against Xin Tu. Pei Xi, just as rumored, completed a pentakill by himself and quickly defeated Xiaolong. In the second match, facing Xin Tu, Ji Xiangkong's tactic was to go for a quick push.

The Legends team picked two tower-pushing heroes, but in others' eyes, Legends' development couldn't compare to Xin Tu's at all, and playing like this was bound to lose. However, Ji Xiangkong's tactics were always strong. He secured a double kill right at the start and gave all the farm to Lu Feng, consequently smoothly defeating Xin Tu. Watching the match from behind the screen, the Chairman and Gu Fang both highly praised Ji Xiangkong.

Gu Fang told the Chairman about the matter of changing opponents. The Chairman decided to ask Manager Zhao properly. If Manager Zhao was deliberate, the Chairman would give Legends an explanation. In the evening, it was Gu Fang's retirement banquet. The magazine office gave the task of covering Gu Fang's news to Yiyi. This retirement banquet was not only lively inside the hotel, but the reporters outside were also lively, each one vying to get in.

Yiyi, pulling Qiu Ying, also came to the hotel entrance. To successfully enter the hotel, Yiyi and Qiu Ying staged a scene at the back door where a boss was scolding an employee, successfully sneaking into the hotel. Then the two of them secretly snuck to the kitchen, stole two sets of waiter's clothes, and blended into the banquet hall. At the banquet, the former players of the Pioneers team were also there.

Since the Pioneers team won the championship, Luo Tian became a commentator, Shu Wen became a coach, everyone else also worked behind the scenes, and only Gu Fang competed. The group of Pioneers teammates were catching up, while Manager Zhao was thinking about poaching Shu Wen's apprentice Pei Xi. However, Shu Wen was also thinking about poaching from Legends. She felt that if Ji Xiangkong teamed up with Pei Xi, they would definitely shine brightly.

The Pioneers team also had a retired teammate, Sun Zeyi, who is Ji Xiangkong's good friend who opened an internet cafe. Ji Xiangkong originally wanted to call him over, but Sun Zeyi had been busy at the internet cafe and didn't come over. Yiyi took many photos at the scene, but when Gu Fang was speaking, Yiyi was discovered by Lin Yixuan. The result was that Lin Yixuan was beaten by Yiyi again.

Lin Yixuan had his foot stepped on and then chased Yiyi all the way until he cornered her at the entrance of the women's restroom. Yiyi couldn't escape even after trying every method and could only resort to crying and making a fuss. If Ji Xiangkong hadn't been behind her, Yiyi would have escaped. The result was that all of Yiyi's photos were gone. Qiu Ying was also discovered by Ji Xiangkong at the scene.

Ji Xiangkong thought Qiu Ying had come to secretly live stream. Only after taking Qiu Ying's phone did he realize he had misunderstood her. After the banquet ended, the Pioneers team planned to go see Sun Zeyi together, but Shu Wen refused to go, claiming there was something going on with the team. It seems Sun Zeyi's retirement back then had a significant connection to Shu Wen. Even now, Shu Wen still cannot face Sun Zeyi.

Episode 7 Recap

Besides Shu Wen making an excuse and Luo Tian going back to work overtime, the remaining few people went to see Sun Zeyi. To let the old friends gather, Lin Yixuan could only eat instant noodles and look after the shop at the internet cafe, watching others eat a large meal.

After drinking a few cups of wine, Summer brought up Sun Zeyi and Shu Wen's relationship from back then again, and the atmosphere couldn't help but become a little awkward. The next day, in order to win the next match, Ji Xiangkong planned to have everyone start practicing new heroes. And time was very short, because Manager Zhao had arranged a reality show for them.

Originally, Ji Xiangkong planned to refuse, but Manager Zhao complained to the Chairman, saying that Ji Xiangkong didn't have time to participate in the reality show, but he had time to play double queue with a female streamer. As soon as Manager Zhao finished speaking, Ji Xiangkong came in and told the Chairman that he would accept any commercial activity as long as it didn't affect training. This time, Manager Zhao completely lost face in front of the Chairman.

To be a good IConquer streamer, Qiu Ying was also practicing the newly released heroes at home. Although she kept failing, Qiu Ying welcomed a new opportunity, Jiguang Video invited her to participate in a reality show. As a result, this reality show was like playing double queue, Qiu Ying's partner was Ji Xiangkong, and Qiao Xin's partner was Pei Xi.

This really put Qiu Ying in a tough spot; in the reality show, Ji Xiangkong deliberately answered questions incorrectly to make Qiu Ying get punished. Seeing Qiu Ying being punished, Ji Xiangkong was very happy laughing, and Qiao Xin was also very willing to see Qiu Ying make a fool of herself. After the first round of questions, the second round was a double queue match.

Before the match, Pei Xi hoped that Ji Xiangkong could take this match seriously, so he could see Ji Xiangkong's true strength. After the match started, Qiu Ying was full of anger, but her skills couldn't compare, and she gave up the first blood. Ji Xiangkong bringing Qiu Ying was still more than enough; resurrected, Qiu Ying followed Ji Xiangkong's command and finally defeated Qiao Xin and Pei Xi.

Pei Xi had always thought that Qiu Ying would be a burden to Ji Xiangkong, but Ji Xiangkong was best at leveraging others' strengths; he directly turned Qiu Ying from a burden into a helper. After the match was over, Ji Xiangkong left without even taking the prize, and the director asked Qiu Ying to bring the prize to Ji Xiangkong.

Qiu Ying chased after him to the parking lot, and she was very grateful to Ji Xiangkong for helping her win today. Qiu Ying hoped that Ji Xiangkong could help her learn more about Esport, but Ji Xiangkong thought that Qiu Ying wanted to flirt with him and get attention, and directly pinned her against the wall.

Because of what Qiu Ying had done before, Ji Xiangkong felt that she would stop at nothing, and he had always thought that Qiu Ying would use any means to take a shortcut. Being so misunderstood, Qiu Ying ran out crying again.

After returning home, Ji Xiangkong realized that he had misunderstood Qiu Ying again today; she was telling the truth when she said she made a terrible video, and Ji Xiangkong also felt that he had been a bit excessive. So he started leaving comments below the video, giving Qiu Ying good guidance. Manager Zhao also successfully arranged to meet Pei Xi. Manager Zhao also had some tricks up his sleeve; he knew that Pei Xi had always disliked Weiteng's teammates. But regarding joining Legends, Pei Xi also didn't want to be an ordinary player.

Episode 8 Recap

Pei Xi's ambition was also very big; he valued the resources Manager Zhao promised him greatly. Pei Xi's condition for switching to Legends was to become Legends' captain, which made the Chairman very difficult, but Manager Zhao was already prepared. The next day, a video spread online, said to be the full version of the conflict between Ji Xiangkong and Tatans in Vancouver. In the video, Ji Xiangkong attacked Tatans fiercely.

Although this did not actually happen, netizens took it as real. Netizens were not only cursing Ji Xiangkong but also Qiu Ying, because this video was uploaded from Qiu Ying's account. Although Qiu Ying hated Ji Xiangkong very much, she did not make this video. This video was actually a trick orchestrated by Manager Zhao in conjunction with Qiao Xin. Qiao Xin then used a high price to tempt Yan Yan to carry out the operation.

The night before, Yan Yan pretended to argue with her boyfriend and came to Qiu Ying's home for comfort. Qiu Ying kindly let her stay at her home and cooked noodles for her. While Qiu Ying was cooking noodles, Yan Yan took the opportunity to upload the fake video using Qiu Ying's computer. As soon as the video was uploaded, news spread online that Ji Xiangkong played with Qiu Ying's feelings and was retaliated against by Qiu Ying.

To handle the crisis public relations, the company planned to hold a press conference. The Chairman asked Ji Xiangkong to apologize and clarify his relationship with Qiu Ying. This matter attracted many fans to the entrance of the Legends company. Yiyi also rushed over after hearing the news. Yiyi and Lin Yixuan had a tacit understanding. Lin Yixuan planned to find Yiyi to ask for clarification, and Yiyi also wanted to find Lin Yixuan to get some information.

Lin Yixuan told Yiyi that the Legends company had compared Qiu Ying's IP address, and a lawyer's letter had also been sent to Qiu Ying's company. Qiu Ying was unable to prove her innocence for a while and was therefore fired by the company. Now Manager Zhao and Qiao Xin had both achieved their goals. Now the Legends team was in chaos, and all the Legends sponsors had come.

The sponsor had a big temper tantrum and did not want Ji Xiangkong to be the captain. Some people from Weiteng were also watching Legends make a fool of themselves on screen. They didn't train properly but loved to gossip, and such teammates made Pei Xi very dissatisfied. Similarly, Weiteng teammates were not convinced by Pei Xi. Pei Xi was always a solo hero, and other teammates became Supports, a four-protect-one setup, which made the other teammates very dissatisfied.

The video spread online for several days. Ji Xiangkong did not plan to hide anymore; he felt that the best way to resolve this matter was for Jeffrey himself to come forward and clarify. Jeffrey was arrogant; he definitely wouldn't tolerate news spreading outside that he was bullied by Ji Xiangkong. Jeffrey was coming to China tomorrow. Manager Zhao did not expect someone unexpected to pop up halfway.

He immediately told people to arrange more training matches for the Legends team to prevent Ji Xiangkong from finding Jeffrey. Qiu Ying's half-brother Xia Ling also saw the news and sent a text message to comfort Qiu Ying, but Qiu Ying did not appreciate it, because if it weren't for Xia Ling and his mother, Qiu Ying's home would not have been destroyed. To resolve this matter, Yiyi accompanied Qiu Ying to find a lawyer. They hoped that with the lawyer's help, they could find a breakthrough in resolving the incident.

Episode 9 Recap

Lu Yiyi introduced a Lawyer Chen to Qiu Ying. Lawyer Chen analyzed that the current situation was very unfavorable to Qiu Ying, as there was no evidence to prove her innocence, and she would also face a considerable amount of compensation. Currently, there is one way, which is to settle with the Legends team. However, it was impossible for Qiu Ying to settle with Ji Xiangkong.

Lawyer Chen suggested that Qiu Ying should go and find the leaders of the Legends team. After returning home, Xia Ling had been waiting for her at the entrance of Qiu Ying's home. The bank had already sent the mortgage terms to the house. Xia Ling originally wanted to take Qiu Ying home, and her father was also very worried about her, but Qiu Ying was unwilling to accept charity from those she disliked.

Xia Ling really wanted to help Qiu Ying, but he himself had no money. Xia Ling told his father about Qiu Ying's situation. Her father was also holding a grudge against Qiu Ying, constantly saying that Qiu Ying brought it upon herself. Although her father blamed Qiu Ying verbally, he was also very worried about his daughter in his heart. The next day, Xia Ling brought his father to see Qiu Ying.

As soon as she saw her father, Qiu Ying's expression worsened. In Qiu Ying's impression, when her mother was seriously ill and lying in the hospital, her father had found another woman. Although her father explained repeatedly, Qiu Ying was already convinced that her father had betrayed them. Her father didn't say much; he wanted to leave a bank card for Qiu Ying.

But Qiu Ying didn't want to accept any help from her father; she decided to walk her own path herself. Watching her father's receding back, Qiu Ying recalled the happy life she had with her parents when she was young, her parents telling her stories, tutoring her homework, and watching her dance; everything felt like a different lifetime. As she thought about it, Qiu Ying cried with grievance. To help Qiu Ying, Lu Yiyi also approached Lin Yixuan.

Lin Yixuan checked his phone and was startled to see over twenty missed calls. Lu Yiyi arranged to meet Lin Yixuan at a coffee shop downstairs, wanting Manager Zhao's phone number. But Lin Yixuan said it was useless to look for anyone unless Qiu Ying came out to clarify and apologize. Even though Lu Yiyi convinced Lin Yixuan that Qiu Ying was framed, there was no evidence. Mid-sentence, Lu Yiyi suddenly received a call from Qiu Ying.

Qiu Ying had sold her house for the compensation. Although the house was Qiu Ying's dream, having a house didn't mean having a home. Qiu Ying believed that she could handle everything herself, which was what Lu Yiyi admired most about her. Now that Qiu Ying had no place to live, Lu Yiyi took her in. After Lin Yixuan went back, he also told Ji Xiangkong and Sun Zeyi about Qiu Ying selling her house.

The few of them sorted out the events of the past two days. In the past, Manager Zhao was very capable at crisis public relations, but this time he hadn't taken any action, even preventing Ji Xiangkong from looking for Jeffrey. They guessed that the mastermind behind this farce might be Manager Zhao. Manager Zhao in the company had also been watching the movements of others.

Just as Manager Zhao was about to leave, Ji Xiangkong blocked him in the office. Ji Xiangkong immediately asked if he had contacted Jeffrey. Although Manager Zhao said that he had arranged to have dinner with Jeffrey that evening, he also scheduled two training matches for the Legends team, not wanting Ji Xiangkong to go with him. Hearing him say this, Ji Xiangkong understood everything. He verbally agreed to train seriously, but secretly planned to follow Manager Zhao.

Lu Yiyi arranged a small room for Qiu Ying at her place. The space was small, but it was a warm place to stay. Next, Qiu Ying planned to find the people from Legends herself. She had taken a photo of Manager Zhao's car in advance and was preparing to do something to his car. However, the Legends parking lot was too big, and finding Manager Zhao's car was really difficult, but Ji Xiangkong's motorcycle was spotted by Qiu Ying.

She took out her lipstick and drew a pig's head on the rearview mirror of Ji Xiangkong's motorcycle. Then, as she was looking for Manager Zhao's car, Manager Zhao happened to walk over. Qiu Ying quickly went up to greet him, wanting to discuss the lawyer's letter. Qiu Ying got into Manager Zhao's car and was then taken by him to the entrance of a club. Manager Zhao's hands started to become restless in the car.

After locking the car door, he began to openly make advances towards Qiu Ying. Fortunately, Ji Xiangkong had been following behind on his motorcycle. Just when Qiu Ying was in the most critical moment, Ji Xiangkong smashed the front windshield of Manager Zhao's car with his helmet. The sudden loud noise startled Manager Zhao. When he got out of the car, Ji Xiangkong grabbed him and beat him up violently.

Qiu Ying took advantage of this moment and ran away crying. Ji Xiangkong was worried and followed behind her. Manager Zhao's behavior had terrified Qiu Ying. She walked into a convenience store and started chugging beer. Ji Xiangkong watched her from outside the window, feeling a bit heartbroken. After a few cans of beer, Qiu Ying was completely drunk. She accidentally fell to the ground, and the contents of her bag scattered everywhere.

Ji Xiangkong found a photo of Qiu Ying's mother. So, what Qiu Ying had said before was true; that necklace really belonged to her mother. Taking advantage of the alcohol, Qiu Ying vented all the anger she had accumulated towards Ji Xiangkong during this time. Ji Xiangkong also didn't expect that he had caused Qiu Ying to lose her home and her job. Qiu Ying left with a harsh statement, saying that one day, she would make every single person from Legends apologize to her.

Episode 10 Recap

Ji Xiangkong carried the drunk Qiu Ying onto the main road to hail a taxi. Along the way, Qiu Ying bit Ji Xiangkong badly. In the car, Qiu Ying finally quieted down, and she leaned on Ji Xiangkong's shoulder and fell asleep. Ji Xiangkong could only take her back to his place first and settle her down. In her sleep, Qiu Ying still cried and called out for her mother.

Ji Xiangkong wiped away her tears and let her sleep soundly. When she woke up in the morning, Qiu Ying didn't know where she was. Fortunately, her clothes were intact; otherwise, something really serious would have happened. When Qiu Ying walked out of the room, she met Lin Yixuan, and both were startled by the other. Ji Xiangkong had slept on the sofa in the living room all night.

Lin Yixuan even thought something had happened between them and immediately called Qiu Ying "sister-in-law." Qiu Ying was also very embarrassed that she had ended up being taken care of by Ji Xiangkong. Before she left, Ji Xiangkong told Qiu Ying to meet with her lawyer at ten o'clock. Ji Xiangkong's lawyer proposed compensation, and Qiu Ying also planned to pay compensation.

But unexpectedly, Ji Xiangkong asked for one million as soon as he spoke, though this was just to tease Qiu Ying. In fact, the settlement agreement stated the compensation was 0 yuan. Ji Xiangkong warned Qiu Ying to drink less alcohol in the future because she becomes a chatterbox when she's drunk. Yiyi was quite angry when she learned that Qiu Ying had been with Ji Xiangkong last night.

Qiu Ying was free from trouble, but Manager Zhao exaggerated Ji Xiangkong's private settlement and reported it to the Chairman. The Chairman was so angry that he wanted to terminate the contract with Ji Xiangkong. Manager Luo rushed in and said finding Jeffrey would solve the problem. Manager Zhao hadn't contacted Jeffrey at all; he just wanted to use the sponsors to force the Chairman to terminate the contract with Ji Xiangkong.

The Chairman had no choice; he planned to hold a press conference on Monday. If the issue wasn't resolved before Monday, he would announce the termination of the contract with Ji Xiangkong at the press conference. Ji Xiangkong had already gone to the hotel to find Jeffrey, but he didn't see any sign of Jeffrey for a long time. Just as Lin Yixuan called to inquire, Jeffrey appeared. When Jeffrey saw Ji Xiangkong, he knew why he was there.

Although Jeffrey knew the video was fake, knowing that Ji Xiangkong would be fired made him even less willing to clarify. But Ji Xiangkong also knew Jeffrey's weakness: Jeffrey didn't want the public to think he had been badly beaten by Ji Xiangkong. Qiu Ying and Yiyi were also discussing countermeasures to help Ji Xiangkong at home. Yiyi suddenly realized that in the video of Qiu Ying in Vancouver that day, there was a tour group also filming.

If they could find the person from the tour group who filmed the video, they might be able to find the complete video from that day. Yiyi used her connections to find the leader of the tour group, but the leader had taken the group out and would only return in the afternoon. Moreover, their flight was delayed, so Qiu Ying waited for them at the airport.

Flights were widely delayed, and Qiu Ying and Yiyi waited at the airport all night. The press conference was about to start soon, and Yiyi, representing Dynamic Esport Magazine, also rushed to the scene. Before the press conference began, Wang Bin came with the termination agreement and asked Ji Xiangkong to sign it. But Ji Xiangkong decided to let Manager Zhao finish his act; he wanted to sign it in front of Manager Zhao at the press conference.

Hard work paid off; Qiu Ying finally waited for the tour group. She only dozed off for a few seconds, and the tour group had already walked away. On the Legends side, the press conference had already started. Manager Zhao was interrupted by several reporters as soon as he spoke, and they asked some sharp questions, including the authenticity of the video, whether Ji Xiangkong would be terminated, and if new members would join after termination.

Just as Manager Zhao was about to announce the termination of the contract with Ji Xiangkong, Yiyi suddenly spoke up. She took out the complete video from that day. It turned out that Qiu Ying had tried her utmost to finally catch up with the tour group leader and found the video. As soon as the video was played, all the reporters raised questions.

But Manager Zhao insisted that the video was fake and that Ji Xiangkong had really hit someone. At this moment, Ji Xiangkong suddenly appeared at the scene and presented Jeffrey's video. In the video, Jeffrey clarified that the online video was fake and issued a challenge to Ji Xiangkong for the next season's global finals. The incident of Ji Xiangkong hitting someone was now clear. Reporters began to ask about the relationship between Ji Xiangkong and Qiu Ying.

Ji Xiangkong also clarified the rumors about him and Qiu Ying and assured the reporters that the Legends team would find the mastermind behind framing him. In front of many reporters, Manager Zhao could only say that he would not terminate the contract with Ji Xiangkong.

Episode 11 Recap

Ji Xiangkong chased after her to thank Yiyi, but Yiyi warned him not to provoke Qiu Ying again in the future. Yiyi and Qiu Ying wanted to distance themselves from Ji Xiangkong and his teammates, but Lin Yixuan and Ji Xiangkong had developed different feelings for the two girls. Ji Xiangkong even invited Qiu Ying to dinner, and Qiu Ying was a little excited when she received the message.

For the date that evening, Qiu Ying went back to her room and tidied herself up thoroughly. When Yiyi rushed in, Qiu Ying was admiring herself in the mirror. Seeing Qiu Ying like this, Yiyi knew that Qiu Ying was going on a date with Ji Xiangkong. Qiu Ying promised Yiyi that she and Ji Xiangkong were just having a simple meal. For Qiu Ying's safety, Yiyi found her a very conservative dress.

Then Yiyi called Lin Yixuan to probe for information. Lin Yixuan thought Yiyi was asking him out for dinner and happily told Yiyi where Ji Xiangkong's date location was. After a series of misunderstandings and reconciliation, the conversation between the two of them had a hint of playful banter. As soon as the meal started, Yiyi came over with Lin Yixuan. Yiyi was very worried about Ji Xiangkong and feared that he would bully Qiu Ying.

So Yiyi and Lin Yixuan secretly entered the restaurant and sat at a table next to them. The two of them peeked at Qiu Ying and Ji Xiangkong through the fence. To avoid being discovered by Qiu Ying and Ji Xiangkong, they even deliberately changed their voices, almost scaring the waiter. Ji Xiangkong and Qiu Ying both started apologizing to each other, considering the past things settled.

In the past, they would try to trick each other as soon as they met, but during this dinner, they started putting food on each other's plates. Ji Xiangkong also gave Qiu Ying his notes on Esport, which could help Qiu Ying make better videos. Qiu Ying also suddenly realized that Ji Xiangkong was the sharp-tongued netizen online.

Ji Xiangkong originally wanted to help Qiu Ying return to Youxing through the company's assistance, but Qiu Ying also realized that she was just a pretty face at Youxing, and she wanted to do some professional things in the future. Ji Xiangkong directly suggested she become a professional Esport commentator. There were very few professional commentators, and even fewer professional female commentators. After dinner, Ji Xiangkong went to pay the bill and said to pay for both tables together.

It turned out that Ji Xiangkong had discovered Yiyi and Lin Yixuan's presence long ago, and the result was that Lin Yixuan paid for both tables. Qiu Ying decided to make professional Esport commentating her current dream, and she also encouraged Yiyi to start working towards her dream. The news of Yiyi helping Ji Xiangkong clarify the incident at the press conference also made it to the hot search.

The fans of the Legends team also sent a commendation banner to the magazine office. But Director Shi couldn't be happy at all because Yiyi's excellent performance meant that the group leaders were coming for inspection, and Director Shi's good days of drinking tea and reading books were over. Immediately after, Yiyi received another assignment, which was to interview the Aurora Video event.

But Yiyi forgot to bring the materials when she arrived at the scene, so she had to call Qiu Ying to bring them over. It was because she was helping Yiyi that Qiu Ying discovered a poster in the Aurora Building. Aurora Video was going to hold a Rising Star competition, and the champion would get to partner with Luo Tian as a commentator. This was a golden opportunity for Qiu Ying.

Qiu Ying came to Luo Tian's commentary desk and unconsciously started acting up, pretending to commentate with Luo Tian. Luo Tian happened to come to the office and heard Qiu Ying's commentary. He thought she was an intern, and Qiu Ying's commentary was too superficial. Qiu Ying bought several books about Esport to supplement her theoretical knowledge.

But Esport commentary also requires practical experience, so Yiyi took Qiu Ying to an internet cafe called Quanyou Mengluren, where Esport live broadcasts are often held. As soon as they arrived, they saw a match, a cool girl fighting against a boy. The girl's skills were very high, and she quickly pushed down the boy's crystal. The girl's skills impressed everyone present, and Mengluren even invited the girl to come work there.

But the girl didn't want to serve tea and water to others and left coolly. Mengluren's standards for hiring service staff were very high, requiring them to be girls and the number one player on the server. Mengluren's boss was Summer from Pioneer. Pei Xi, as Summer's cousin, also served as a waiter in Mengluren. Ji Xiangkong has now regained the company's trust.

The Chairman called Manager Zhao and Ji Xiangkong together and asked Manager Zhao to apologize to Ji Xiangkong. Manager Zhao unwillingly apologized to Ji Xiangkong, then returned to his office angrily and started plotting the next wave of traps for Ji Xiangkong.

Episode 12 Recap

Qiu Ying has high aspirations, but she is still a long way from being professional. Let alone becoming the champion of Rising Star with her ranking, she's not even qualified to be a waiter at Mengluren. If talent isn't enough, make it up with hard work. Qiu Ying stayed up late at home practicing heroes at night, and came to Mengluren to practice during the day.

Pei Xi couldn't stand watching Qiu Ying's operations anymore, so he stepped in to give some guidance. Pei Xi suggested Qiu Ying use a Mage, but Mage needed to be practiced from scratch, and she didn't know how to do the initial setup. Pei Xi found Qiu Ying talked too much and told her to go home, organize the problems, and send them to him.

Qiu Ying didn't know which Mage to choose, so she chose the Creator, the same one as Pei Xi. The Creator is very difficult to operate, and Pei Xi was also very critical of the problems she organized. Pei Xi only demonstrated once and then told Qiu Ying to watch the replay herself.

Qiu Ying wanted to ask Pei Xi to allow her to be a waiter, but Pei Xi took out a lollipop again and told Qiu Ying to shut up. Ji Xiangkong was leading the team to prepare for the next internal test match, but Huo Yao was a little late. Huo Yao's lateness wasn't simple; he went to renew his contract with Manager Zhao. Manager Zhao said he would recommend Huo Yao to be the captain.

Huo Yao didn't say anything, but he also had a heart for being a captain. This temptation made Huo Yao unable to concentrate during training. After completing training, Ji Xiangkong came to Mengluren to find Qiu Ying. When he heard that Pei Xi was teaching Qiu Ying Mid, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous and immediately said that Pei Xi was just showing off his operations.

Ji Xiangkong was speaking ill of Pei Xi behind his back, and Pei Xi sneezed several times. Ji Xiangkong saw that Qiu Ying was tired, so he took her out for a walk. Moreover, Ji Xiangkong also planned to give Qiu Ying a top-secret coaching session. This coaching wasn't simple; it didn't require operating a computer, but instead took place at a snack shop. For a professional player, being fast, accurate, and ruthless is a basic skill.

Ji Xiangkong planned to start training Qiu Ying in these aspects. In the snack shop, he quickly stated the names and quantities of snacks, telling Qiu Ying to put everything he mentioned into the shopping basket. This method of teaching made Qiu Ying feel that Ji Xiangkong was still playing tricks on her. Ji Xiangkong gave all the bought snacks to Qiu Ying, and then gave her two tickets for the internal test match.

According to Ji Xiangkong, Qiu Ying's arrival would allow him to perform at 100 points. As soon as Qiu Ying returned home, she saw Yiyi sitting solemnly in the living room with the lights off, which was terrifying. Yiyi saw everything that just happened downstairs. Yiyi was determined to be Qiu Ying's firewall to prevent Ji Xiangkong's conquest. Qiu Ying wanted to invite Yiyi to the internal test match together.

Yiyi said she wouldn't go, but when Qiu Ying said she would throw the tickets away, Yiyi became anxious. Moreover, when Yiyi saw that Qiu Ying bought dried mangoes, she instantly became happy. On the day of the internal test match, Qiu Ying and Yiyi arrived as scheduled. Lin Yixuan was very happy to see Yiyi come, and Ji Xiangkong also came out to greet Qiu Ying.

Ji Xiangkong originally wanted to tell Qiu Ying to get acquainted with Luo Tian and the Aurora boss, but Qiu Ying still lacked confidence. Immediately, Ji Xiangkong gave Qiu Ying a head pat. Watching their interaction, Pei Xi also walked over and asked Qiu Ying what their relationship was. Before the match, the other members of the Legends team were fine, but Huo Yao was troubled. He told his teammates that he just didn't sleep well.

In the restroom, Manager Zhao gave Huo Yao another pointer. Huo Yao's resolute gaze was as if he had decided something. The match began. IConquer introduced five new warriors based on China's Five Elements, and the five warriors counteracted and enhanced each other. Legends lost Gu Fang, which led most fans to believe that Pei Xi might win. However, Legends emphasizes teamwork, while Pei Xi's side was fighting individually, so Pei Xi was killed by Legends at the beginning.

But during the second wave of attack, Huo Yao's ultimate skill missed, and after that, Huo Yao's performance was continuously abnormal, allowing Waiteng to win the first game. Sun Zeyi had been watching this match in an internet cafe. He could tell at a glance that Huo Yao had a problem, so he quickly sent a text message to Ji Xiangkong.

Huo Yao's explanation to his teammates was just nervousness, but Lin Yixuan also knew that Huo Yao had never been nervous when facing Waiteng. Before the start of the second game, while his teammates left early, Ji Xiangkong did not blame Huo Yao. Instead, he comforted him not to feel too much pressure, because Ji Xiangkong was willing to trust the brother he had been with for two years.

Episode 13 Recap

Ji Xiangkong and Qiu Ying directly challenged the top 100 players in the server. Under Ji Xiangkong's command, Qiu Ying had already become one of the top 65 players in the server. Pei Xi watched Ji Xiangkong come over, and not only personally offered drinks, but also gave him an extra large strawberry cake. Pei Xi's eyes were fixed on Ji Xiangkong.

In Pei Xi's opinion, Ji Xiangkong was wasting time; he should be looking for a team now, otherwise Pei Xi would have no opponent in the next match. But Ji Xiangkong didn't care at all, his indifference made Pei Xi very angry. While shopping at night, Ji Xiangkong still thought Pei Xi kept coming in because he was interested in Qiu Ying. Qiu Ying asked Ji Xiangkong where he wanted to go next.

In fact, it wasn't that Ji Xiangkong didn't want to look for a team, but that no team was looking for him at all. As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ao from the Superpower team called to invite Ji Xiangkong. However, Superpower was not a Chinese team, and Ji Xiangkong still wanted to stay in China. In Ji Xiangkong's junior year of university, he was unconvinced by the contempt of foreign teams, so he challenged them to a duel.

Ji Xiangkong's deceptive tactics successfully won against that foreigner. After graduation, Ji Xiangkong joined a professional team, aiming to win the World Grand Finals trophy for a Chinese team. Ji Xiangkong also looked forward to the day when a Chinese team wins the global championship, and Qiu Ying could stand on stage to announce the news. Qiu Ying even dreamed at night of standing on the stage at the pinnacle of the world with Ji Xiangkong.

When Yiyi saw her dreamy, infatuated expression, she knew this dream was not simple. The next second, Yiyi began to interrogate Qiu Ying about her whereabouts last night. After learning that Qiu Ying was with Ji Xiangkong again, Yiyi felt that Qiu Ying was beyond saving; she was practically a crazy fan of Ji Xiangkong now. Before leaving, Pei Xi wanted to treat everyone to cake.

But from Waiteng's coach down to his teammates, everyone felt that Pei Xi was too disloyal. Previously, the Waiteng team's tactics were always centered around Pei Xi, with all playstyles being 'four protect one', which had already made the other teammates very dissatisfied. Although Shu Wen also didn't want Pei Xi to leave, she respected Pei Xi's choice. The chairman was very welcoming of Pei Xi's arrival; when he came, the sponsors also came.

But Pei Xi only cared about Ji Xiangkong; he originally wanted to find Ji Xiangkong to be his teammate. Hearing that Pei Xi had arrived, Lin Yixuan also couldn't control his temper and rushed out fiercely wanting to hit Pei Xi. Now Ji Xiangkong was invited by Xintu, which was also because Gu Fang called General Manager Chen of Xintu.

Ji Xiangkong drafted a tactic for the Xintu team, but General Manager Chen didn't pay much attention to Ji Xiangkong's tactic, thinking that Ji Xiangkong wanted to be the commander as soon as he arrived. Ji Xiangkong didn't care at all what position he was in within the team; he only hoped to use his strengths for the team. If Xintu didn't need his strengths, then there was no need for him to join Xintu.

Besides Xintu, Sun Zeyi suggested Ji Xiangkong go to Waiteng. This was the first time Sun Zeyi actively mentioned Shu Wen. Ji Xiangkong didn't dare to contact Waiteng; since all of Waiteng's sponsors had already left, Ji Xiangkong was afraid that his 'bad luck magnet' nature would bring more negative impact to Shu Wen.

Shu Wen was not worried about Pei Xi's departure now, because Shu Wen also felt that the 'four protect one' tactic was not suitable over the years, and maybe it was a good thing that Pei Xi left. Just then, Ji Xiangkong sent a message to Shu Wen; Ji Xiangkong was the talent in Shu Wen's heart. Pei Xi was not having an easy time at Legends either.

Although Pei Xi brought sponsors to Legends, the other teammates didn't like cooperating with Pei Xi at all, especially Lin Yixuan. In a fit of pique, Lin Yixuan directly went on strike for the upcoming match. Now Legends was playing four against five against their opponent, but Pei Xi was still formidable; he could still win even without a teammate. Yiyi received another interview assignment; Waiteng wanted to publish a report about Qi Yue.

Qi Yue was the disciple of Pioneer Li Gan. After Pei Xi left, he became the captain. Yiyi cramming at the last minute, searched for information about Qi Yue all day. To her surprise, when she got home, Qiu Ying actually knew a lot about Qi Yue. Yiyi directly asked Qiu Ying to go with her to interview Waiteng tomorrow, as a photography assistant.

Episode 14 Recap

When Lu Yiyi saw her dreamy, infatuated expression, she knew this dream was not simple. The next second, Lu Yiyi began to interrogate Qiu Ying about her whereabouts last night.

Episode 15 Recap

Coach Luo told Ji Xiangkong about Lin Yixuan's secret. Ji Xiangkong called him out that night and gave him a lecture. Besides his contract not being expired, the reason Lin Yixuan didn't leave Legends was to find out who framed Ji Xiangkong. The next day, Ji Xiangkong came to Waiteng to find Shu Wen, but Waiteng's other teammates also didn't like Ji Xiangkong, just like Legends repelled Pei Xi.

When Ji Xiangkong found Shu Wen, he pointedly stated Waiteng's current problems. Unexpectedly, the one who understood Shu Wen best was Ji Xiangkong. Waiteng doesn't lack excellent players, what it lacks is tactics. Sun Zeyi knew Shu Wen still had a desire for the championship, which is why he recommended Ji Xiangkong to come. This was also what Shu Wen thought, so Shu Wen made Ji Xiangkong the captain of Waiteng.

At this time, Lu Yiyi and Qiu Ying were also at Waiteng. Originally, Waiteng invited them for an interview, but Waiteng kept changing the time, which made Lu Yiyi very angry. Qiu Ying and Lu Yiyi waited for a long time before Qi Yue slowly walked over. Qi Yue's narcissism made Lu Yiyi speechless. He planned to talk about how he would lead Waiteng to win the championship in this interview.

Lu Yiyi already looked down on him, and Qi Yue even compared himself to Pei Xi, which made Lu Yiyi look down on him even more. After the interview, Qiu Ying accidentally saw Shu Wen talking intimately with Ji Xiangkong. Qiu Ying grabbed Lu Yiyi and left quickly. But with a reporter's keen sense, Lu Yiyi felt that Waiteng was about to have big news.

Qi Yue had been looking forward to Waiteng announcing him as captain, but he didn't know that Shu Wen had other plans. Shu Wen planned to sign him, but Li Gan disagreed. He was afraid that after Ji Xiangkong joined, no more sponsors would come. In the evening, Ji Xiangkong and Sun Zeyi were drinking, and Li Gan also came over.

Li Gan came over to refuse to sign with Ji Xiangkong, and also asked Ji Xiangkong to personally tell Shu Wen about the refusal. Li Gan was afraid Shu Wen would fail after betting everything, and Ji Xiangkong also didn't want to implicate Shu Wen, so he agreed to Li Gan's suggestion. Li Gan expressed support in front of Shu Wen, but when Shu Wen wanted to find Ji Xiangkong, Li Gan stopped her.

Shu Wen knew that all of this was Li Gan's doing. She immediately drove to the House of Kings to find him. Shu Wen met Sun Zeyi at the entrance. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. This meeting made both of them very nervous. Shu Wen found Ji Xiangkong and told him all her heartfelt thoughts. That year's championship was five years ago. Now Shu Wen desperately needed Ji Xiangkong.

In order to reduce Shu Wen's pressure, Ji Xiangkong adjusted his annual salary to one dollar. He promised Shu Wen that from today, he would advance and retreat together with Waiteng. Qiu Ying has made rapid progress lately, even winning against the legendary Skinny Monkey. But that day the girl who stunned the entire arena appeared and wanted to challenge Qiu Ying to a duel.

Pei Xi, enjoying the spectacle and making things bigger, suggested the two have a public match. The duel between the two girls made this group of boys all excited. Yatou is, after all, currently the number one in the server region. Qiu Ying was still a bit weak. In the first half of the match, she was constantly being crushed, until only one drop of blood was left.

Everyone else suggested Qiu Ying quickly retreat, only Pei Xi suggested she push the crystal. Qiu Ying didn't know who to listen to, until Ji Xiangkong appeared and also suggested she push the crystal. Qiu Ying finally won the match and successfully became a waiter at Mengluren. Pei Xi was filled with fighting spirit as soon as he saw Ji Xiangkong, but he told Ji Xiangkong to stay away from Qiu Ying.

Ji Xiangkong thought Pei Xi liked Qiu Ying, but Pei Xi didn't answer. Qiu Ying and Ji Xiangkong both found jobs, which was something to celebrate. In order to celebrate, Qiu Ying also ordered two beers. While Ji Xiangkong ordered a hot towel and personally gave Qiu Ying's hands a hot compress. He knew Qiu Ying's hands must be very tired.

His care like this originally touched Qiu Ying greatly, but Ji Xiangkong's single word "buddy" made Qiu Ying feel at a loss. Lu Yiyi still waited for Qiu Ying to come home as usual. Lu Yiyi made a large table of dishes, just waiting for Qiu Ying to come back to celebrate her becoming the number one in the server region. As a result, Qiu Ying ate dinner with Ji Xiangkong in advance. Lu Yiyi was very angry.

Lu Yiyi showed Qiu Ying the online news. Netizens heard that Ji Xiangkong went to Waiteng, and the news spread that Ji Xiangkong was "hugging Shu Wen's thigh." Qiu Ying saw this news and felt a little sad. She thought Ji Xiangkong was with Shu Wen. She said she didn't care, but in the middle of the night, tossing and turning, her mind was full of images of Ji Xiangkong talking with Shu Wen. Also anxious now is Qi Yue. He wanted to unite with other teammates to ostracize Ji Xiangkong.

Episode 16 Recap

On Ji Xiangkong's first day reporting to Waiteng, Qi Yue gave him a cold shoulder. Shu Wen originally wanted to arrange for Ji Xiangkong to live in Pei Xi's old room, but Ji Xiangkong requested to live with his teammates, so Lu Sheng became his roommate. Lu Sheng has a reclusive personality; he is not as aggressive as Qi Yue. To formally announce Ji Xiangkong's arrival, Shu Wen convened a meeting.

However, Qi Yue was late, and Li Gan simply claimed illness and didn't come. When Shu Wen announced Ji Xiangkong as captain, Qi Yue became even more furious. He was unconvinced by Ji Xiangkong and wanted to play a match against him. Ji Xiangkong agreed to let Qi Yue lead the Waiteng teammates, while he would lead the substitute players. If Ji Xiangkong won, Qi Yue would acknowledge him as captain. But if Ji Xiangkong lost, he would leave Waiteng.

Qi Yue chose the same four-protect-one strategy as before, telling everyone to give all the resources to him. Ji Xiangkong had long anticipated Qi Yue's strategy; he had his teammates split into two groups to deal with Qi Yue. Not long into the match, Shu Wen could see the difference between the two teams. Compared to Ji Xiangkong, Qi Yue was completely defeated. However, even after his defeat, Qi Yue was still unconvinced.

He blamed all the responsibility on his teammates and even proposed to play another match against Ji Xiangkong. Li Gan finally admitted Ji Xiangkong's skill, especially after seeing Ji Xiangkong adjust his annual salary to one dollar, which made him recognize Ji Xiangkong even more. As a result of this match, Ji Xiangkong almost won over the Waiteng teammates, except for Qi Yue. Li Gan advised Qi Yue to show some magnanimity and responsibility, but Qi Yue was simply unconvinced.

Qi Yue was in a bad mood and came to find his girlfriend Qiao Xin, but Qiao Xin wanted to go find someone else. Qi Yue was already angry; the previous duo queue between Qiao Xin and Pei Xi was not actually played by Pei Xi, but by Qi Yue using Pei Xi's account. As a result, rumors about Pei Xi and Qiao Xin circulated online.

Qiao Xin was anxious to prepare for the Tomorrow's Star competition; she specifically found someone to back her up, ditched Qi Yue, and left. That day, while cleaning his room, Pei Xi accidentally discovered the notes Ji Xiangkong had left behind. Just then, Lin Yixuan passed by the door and thought Pei Xi was a thief. Seeing that he was unconvinced, Pei Xi proposed to compete against Lin Yixuan, letting Lin Yixuan decide what they would compete in.

Lin Yixuan invited Pei Xi to the training hall. This time, the two were not competing in esports, but seeing who could make the other laugh first. Lin Yixuan seemed to have forgotten that Pei Xi had always had a poker face; no matter how he made funny faces, Pei Xi wouldn't laugh. Although Pei Xi had a poker face, he was no less skilled at making funny faces than Lin Yixuan. Within three seconds, Lin Yixuan laughed.

Besides training time, Pei Xi still worked as a waiter at Mengluren. After Qiu Ying officially joined, Summer arranged for Pei Xi to train Qiu Ying. Summer originally thought Pei Xi also liked Qiu Ying, so he wanted to create opportunities for the two of them. But Pei Xi was completely bewildered by this opportunity; he didn't like Qiu Ying at all. Qiu Ying, having become the number one in the server region, also became famous at Mengluren.

Two thugs at Mengluren deliberately harassed Qiu Ying, saying Ji Xiangkong dumped Qiu Ying for Shu Wen, and even trampled on the notebook Ji Xiangkong gave Qiu Ying. Fortunately, Pei Xi intervened and kicked the two people out of Mengluren. Lin Yixuan has also been very busy lately; he needs to find out the truth about Manager Zhao. To investigate Manager Zhao, Lin Yixuan specifically came to find Yiyi for help.

Yiyi originally didn't want to help Lin Yixuan, but since Lin Yixuan was like a sticky plaster, Yiyi could only agree. Yiyi also took the opportunity to ask Lin Yixuan about Shu Wen. Lin Yixuan said Shu Wen was his former sister-in-law, which made Yiyi think Shu Wen was really Ji Xiangkong's ex-girlfriend. In the evening, Yiyi told all these things to Qiu Ying.

Qiu Ying didn't want to think about Ji Xiangkong anymore; she was focused on winning the Tomorrow's Star competition and becoming a professional commentator. Ji Xiangkong's situation at Waiteng was also difficult to open up. In the evening, he wanted to talk about esports with Lu Sheng, but Lu Sheng still didn't want to interact with him.

There was also a Tong Wu in the Waiteng team; he was always bullied by Qi Yue and Shen Yue and had to prepare breakfast for them every day. Shu Wen was worried that the teammates' ostracism would trouble Ji Xiangkong, but Ji Xiangkong could see the personality traits of each Waiteng team member at a glance. Ji Xiangkong also thoroughly understood the game data of several people, and the next step was to formulate tactics.

Not only netizens misunderstood the relationship between Ji Xiangkong and Shu Wen, but Qi Yue also misunderstood it first. When Shu Wen called Ji Xiangkong out for a private chat, Qi Yue asked Li Gan to watch from upstairs. Li Gan trusted Shu Wen greatly; he also didn't want Qi Yue to interfere with their emotional matters. Whether it was a coincidence or not, Qiao Xin surprisingly also wanted to become a professional commentator.

That day she came to Mengluren to listen to Luo Tian's replay commentary. Seeing Qiu Ying working there as a waitress, she deliberately asked Qiu Ying to serve her. Qiao Xin ordered a cappuccino without milk and then made a lot of difficult demands to make things hard for Qiu Ying. Her attitude made even Pei Xi unable to watch. He directly brought Qiao Xin a latte. Luo Tian was commentating on the IConquer internal test match today.

Qiu Ying was diligently taking notes nearby, but Pei Xi said taking notes was useless and told Qiu Ying to ask Luo Tian directly. When Luo Tian asked why Legends had lost, Qiao Xin was very enthusiastic. She thought it was because Ji Xiangkong performed poorly, was instantly killed, and couldn't coordinate with his teammates, leading to the loss. But Qiu Ying believed it wasn't Ji Xiangkong's mistake, but his teammates' mistake.

Hearing this, Pei Xi suddenly realized that perhaps Huo Yao missing his ultimate wasn't a real mistake. After the event, Qiu Ying wanted to ask Luo Tian for guidance, but she hesitated for a long time before handing him her notes. But Luo Tian suddenly remembered that Qiu Ying was the girl in the Aurora commentary booth that day. Luo Tian did not give Qiu Ying guidance.

Instead, he told Qiu Ying that if she didn't even dare to lift her head, how could she have the confidence to stand on the commentary stage? Summer helping Qiu Ying pull strings was seen through by Luo Tian. Luo Tian had always thought Qiu Ying was just a pretty face, pretending to work hard on the surface but ultimately relying on her looks. But Summer told Luo Tian that Qiu Ying was definitely not a pretty face.

Qiu Ying waited for Luo Tian at the door, but still lacked courage. It was Yiyi who encouraged Qiu Ying, saying that only by being thick-skinned could one achieve great things. When Luo Tian came out, Qiu Ying rushed over and said she wanted to become Luo Tian's disciple. Luo Tian had never taken on a disciple before. He wanted Qiu Ying to prove her uniqueness through action. Summer was very concerned about this future sister-in-law. He helped Qiu Ying interpret Luo Tian's meaning and told Qiu Ying to work hard.

Episode 17 Recap

The Tomorrow's Star competition began. The online selection required contestants to answer thousand-point questions within one hour, and getting one wrong meant starting over. Qiu Ying's efforts during this period paid off; she answered all the questions correctly in the last second and successfully advanced. Ji Xiangkong also sent a message congratulating Qiu Ying on advancing, but Qiu Ying didn't want to continue chatting with Ji Xiangkong. Unexpectedly, when she looked up, Ji Xiangkong appeared before Qiu Ying.

Ji Xiangkong missed the strawberry milk tea here very much. Ji Xiangkong was very concerned about Qiu Ying; seeing her so haggard, he specially gave her a box of facial masks. Qiu Ying was still reviewing notes before the competition. Ji Xiangkong originally wanted to teach her his secrets but held back.

However, Qiu Ying already knew his secrets, just as Gu Fang said: Ji Xiangkong's deception was pretending not to see, pretending not to hit, pretending not to be able to escape, and pretending someone was behind him. While they were playing around, Ji Xiangkong suddenly looked at Qiu Ying with intense focus. He was afraid that after Qiu Ying became the number one commentator in the future, he would only be able to watch her through the screen.

But Qiu Ying also said that if Ji Xiangkong called her, she would definitely come. Their eyes met, and Qiu Ying felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward and ambiguous, so she could only explain that they were like brothers. The preliminary round was about to start, and Ji Xiangkong escorted Qiu Ying to the entrance. After Qiu Ying took off her helmet, Ji Xiangkong thoughtfully tidied her hair. These small gestures made Qiu Ying a little shy.

Qiao Xin also advanced this time, but of course, Qiao Xin didn't advance based on her real skills. She had hooked up with the event organizer, A Can, again, and before every competition, A Can would send the test questions to Qiao Xin. Pei Xi also felt that Ji Xiangkong's departure from Legends was not simple during his time there.

He asked Lin Yixuan and Huo Yao in succession and only then learned that Manager Zhao had used his name to spread many untrue statements to the Legends company, which caused the Legends team to dislike him. At this moment, a teammate sent a message saying that Manager Zhao was going to throw away all of Ji Xiangkong's belongings. Lin Yixuan quickly ran downstairs to stop them.

This time, Lin Yixuan really couldn't hold back; he grabbed Wang Bin by the collar and started beating him violently. Lin Yixuan's actions also gave Manager Zhao an opportunity to make things difficult for him; he made Lin Yixuan a substitute player for one year. Lin Yixuan was in a bad mood and needed to vent, so he called Yiyi to a KTV late at night. Hearing about Lin Yixuan's impulsive "deeds," Yiyi felt Lin Yixuan was too foolish.

Yiyi was also puzzled, wondering what spell Ji Xiangkong had cast on Qiu Ying and Lin Yixuan to make them so loyal to him. Lin Yixuan recalled his initial encounter with Ji Xiangkong. At that time, Lin Yixuan was still a delivery guy and was scolded and beaten by a customer for being late, almost losing his job.

Ji Xiangkong played a match with him, and although Lin Yixuan lost, he was invited to join the Legends team by Ji Xiangkong. Yiyi drank a lot with Lin Yixuan. Yiyi hadn't expected Ji Xiangkong to be so righteous sometimes. That night, it was Qiu Ying's turn to wait for Yiyi to come home. When Qiu Ying called Yiyi, Yiyi was already too drunk to speak clearly.

Qiu Ying came to the KTV to pick up Yiyi and happened to run into Ji Xiangkong who was there to pick up Lin Yixuan. Ji Xiangkong offered to help Qiu Ying prepare for the Tomorrow's Star competition, but Qiu Ying still misunderstood that Ji Xiangkong was with Shu Wen. She kept reminding herself to keep her distance from Ji Xiangkong. Qiu Ying suddenly acting so distant made Ji Xiangkong feel strange.

Before Qiu Ying could explain much, Yiyi and Lin Yixuan came out, supporting each other. Yiyi originally still called Ji Xiangkong "Kong ge," but when Ji Xiangkong mentioned the "scumbag" matter, Yiyi brought up the matter between Ji Xiangkong and Shu Wen. Ji Xiangkong finally understood why Qiu Ying had been so cold to him. After Yiyi learned that Shu Wen was Sun Zeyi's ex-girlfriend, she felt much better. Ji Xiangkong had been deploying tactics at Waiteng.

Although Lu Sheng didn't listen to his set of methods, seeing the strategic map Ji Xiangkong created, he was still impressed. Ji Xiangkong also disliked Qi Yue constantly bullying Tong Wu into preparing breakfast, so he refused future breakfasts under the pretext of giving Tong Wu extra training time.

That day, Ji Xiangkong rearranged the team's positions again: Shen Yue as Support, Qi Yue as Jungler, Ji Xiangkong and Tong Wu playing the Top and Bottom lanes, and Lu Sheng as Mid. However, both Qi Yue and Lu Sheng disagreed with Ji Xiangkong's arrangement for the Mid lane. Lu Sheng directly said he couldn't play Mid. Li Gan also stepped in to mediate, saying Ji Xiangkong's arrangement was unsuitable.

Ji Xiangkong wasn't in a hurry; he suggested training according to the new arrangement for one month and seeing the results after that. Shu Wen didn't wait for Li Gan to speak and immediately said she agreed. Besides this, Ji Xiangkong had another request: he wanted to play basketball with Lu Sheng for an hour every day. Ever since Ji Xiangkong left, Lin Yixuan had been slacking off.

Ji Xiangkong didn't want to just watch Lin Yixuan sit on the bench, so he came to Mengluren to discuss with Pei Xi. Ji Xiangkong hoped Pei Xi could help Lin Yixuan, which was also what Pei Xi, as the Captain, should do. Although Lin Yixuan was a Support, Ji Xiangkong told Pei Xi that Lin Yixuan was irreplaceable. Taking this opportunity, Pei Xi asked Ji Xiangkong how he saw himself.

In Ji Xiangkong's eyes, although Pei Xi was very strong, it was only for the first six minutes. If Pei Xi's opponent was Ji Xiangkong, then Pei Xi would fall in the seventh minute. Pei Xi didn't expect Ji Xiangkong to be so arrogant; he had always believed that the only person who could defeat him was himself.

Qiu Ying advanced to the Tomorrow's Star finals based on her own strength, but Luo Tian still refused to take her as a disciple and told Qiu Ying to work towards being more professional. Summer interpreted Luo Tian's words to mean that Qiu Ying had already caught Luo Tian's attention, which made Qiu Ying very happy. Qiu Ying's computer had once sent out a fake video.

Yiyi had always thought someone had hacked her computer, so she called Lin Yixuan over early in the morning, and they could also investigate Manager Zhao together. Yiyi calling Lin Yixuan over in such a hurry couldn't help but make Lin Yixuan think incorrectly. When Yiyi also realized it, she held up a broom and shouted that Lin Yixuan was a hooligan. Lin Yixuan checked Qiu Ying's computer and found no signs of being hacked.

Lin Yixuan told Yiyi that there was only one possibility: it was an inside job, and the person who posted the video was Qiu Ying's good friend. Hearing this, Yiyi suddenly seemed to remember something. At this moment, Lin Yixuan also received a call from Coach Luo, who told him to return to training. Lin Yixuan didn't expect that he could still play, so he quickly returned to Legends.

Episode 18 Recap

The milk tea shop has become a place where Ji Xiangkong and Qiu Ying often meet. When Qiu Ying said she was going to become Luo Tian's disciple, Ji Xiangkong felt she was too brave. However, Ji Xiangkong also exposed Summer Ummer's lie, which was a wake-up call for Qiu Ying. Ji Xiangkong encouraged Qiu Ying, telling her to keep trying even if Luo Tian didn't accept her.

Ji Xiangkong also gave Qiu Ying a suggestion: to become a professional commentator, she could train through actual commentary. Early in the morning, Qiu Ying copied a review video to show Luo Tian. Qiu Ying stayed up all night for this video. When Qiu Ying went out, it was raining. She held an umbrella, enduring the cold wind and rain, and waited for Luo Tian at the company entrance.

When she handed the USB drive to Luo Tian, Qiu Ying was completely soaked. After returning home, Qiu Ying caught a cold. Yiyi wanted Qiu Ying to go to sleep and rest quickly, but Qiu Ying kept waiting for Luo Tian's reply and couldn't sleep. Yiyi encouraged Qiu Ying to be a bit bolder, and unexpectedly, she accidentally dialed Luo Tian's number. However, Qiu Ying had dropped the USB drive into a puddle, and it couldn't be opened.

Luo Tian said there was only one chance. With Yiyi's suggestion, Qiu Ying decided to try again. She borrowed Yiyi's USB drive, planning to show him the video again on the day of Luo Tian's review. Before Luo Tian's review, Qiu Ying played her video directly. At first, Qiu Ying's commentary was not very good, and Qiao Xin and the others mocked her. But after the video finished playing, Qiu Ying received applause from Summer Ummer and others.

Luo Tian also began using Qiu Ying's video as an example to explain things to pay attention to when doing esports commentary. This was also a way of secretly guiding Qiu Ying. Qiu Ying's performance infuriated Qiao Xin, but this was also due to Qiao Xin's own guilt. She wanted to win the Tomorrow's Star championship but was unwilling to put in the effort, always looking for shortcuts. For the championship, Qiao Xin went to find Qi Yue.

Qiao Xin went to give Qi Yue a heads-up; she was going to hook up with someone else on Jixing Video again. Qiu Ying went home and told Yiyi about Luo Tian guiding her. Unexpectedly, Yan Yan came to their home. Yan Yan admitted that she had used Qiu Ying's computer to upload the fake video. She had been blackmailed by Qiao Xin.

Qiao Xin said she would introduce Yan Yan to a high-paying underwear advertisement, but the video of Yan Yan changing clothes was secretly filmed. Besides Qiao Xin, Yan Yan also mentioned a name, Wang Bin. Qiu Ying also understood Yan Yan's difficulties and did not blame her. With Qiao Xin's matter exposed, Manager Liu also wanted to call Qiu Ying back, but Qiu Ying refused.

Pei Xi brought Lin Yixuan back to training, but Lin Yixuan was very uncooperative in the matches, causing his teammates to complain constantly. Pei Xi knew he was deliberately not playing well, so he told Lin Yixuan about Ji Xiangkong's evaluation of him. Lin Yixuan couldn't believe that Ji Xiangkong would find Pei Xi to plead for him, so he went to Ji Xiangkong and playfully said he quit.

But when Ji Xiangkong was really about to take Lin Yixuan to terminate the contract, Lin Yixuan backed out. The Legends team angered Manager Zhao again because no one paid attention to his business activities. In his agitation, Manager Zhao said Huo Yao had poor talent and was old. In a fit of anger, Lin Yixuan revealed that Manager Zhao had made the fake video.

The Legends team surrounded Manager Zhao, and Pei Xi also stepped forward to reveal the rumors Manager Zhao had spread about him. Now that Wang Bin had been arrested by the police, Manager Zhao was finally fired by the chairman. Everything was finally clear, but Ji Xiangkong had no plans to return to Legends. His teammates were very reluctant to see him go. The next time they met, they would be opponents.

Currently, Ji Xiangkong's management at Waiteng has also shown some results. Because of basketball, Lu Sheng's fighting spirit has been rekindled, Tong Wu is also studying Ji Xiangkong's videos and notes, and although Shen Yue is with Qi Yue, they are not truly united. Most importantly, Shu Wen is very supportive of Ji Xiangkong. She found that Waiteng has indeed been revitalized because of Ji Xiangkong's arrival.

Episode 19 Recap

Manager Zhao could no longer be as arrogant as before in front of the Legends team, but the Legends team was penalized 50 laps by the coach for beating Manager Zhao. However, everyone felt it was worth it. Before Manager Zhao left, Pei Xi even tripped him, which made the Legends players feel a bit more favorable towards Pei Xi. Yiyi also quickly wrote the scandalous news about Manager Zhao, and everyone felt greatly relieved.

Qiu Ying's progress also made Ji Xiangkong admire her; he didn't expect her to receive guidance from Luo Tian. The two also shared a piece of cake at the milk tea shop. Qiu Ying kept fantasizing about feeding each other, but unexpectedly, Ji Xiangkong directly cut a heart-shaped cake in half. The next day, Qiu Ying took the initiative to ask Ji Xiangkong out to play, to cheer him on. The amusement park was very lively.

Ji Xiangkong asked Qiu Ying to accompany him on the Tron Lightcycle ride, but Qiu Ying was scared and kept dragging Ji Xiangkong to play other things. It wasn't that Qiu Ying wasn't afraid of the thrilling rides at the amusement park, but because Ji Xiangkong was by her side, she had the courage to challenge things she longed for but didn't dare to try. For this, Qiu Ying was very grateful to Ji Xiangkong.

Ji Xiangkong was also very grateful for Qiu Ying's company. He went into the amusement park and invited many Disney characters to take photos with Qiu Ying. Ji Xiangkong also brought over the plushie Qiu Ying liked and put Mickey ears on her. Qiu Ying felt the day was simply too perfect. Qiu Ying thought there had been enough surprises for the day, but unexpectedly, Ji Xiangkong had more surprises for her.

Ji Xiangkong reached out his hand and led Qiu Ying to ride the romantic carousel. Ji Xiangkong accompanied her all day, and Qiu Ying also decided to accompany him on the Tron Lightcycle ride once. The two spent the whole day in this dreamy and romantic castle. With each other's company, their steps forward were powerful and resonant. In daily life, Ji Xiangkong continued to invite Lu Sheng to play basketball.

Although Lu Sheng had changed a little, he was still far from where he needed to be. One day, Ji Xiangkong angrily threw the basketball, and Lu Sheng finally lost his temper. There was a reason why Lu Sheng was so lacking in ambition; in the past, he was kicked out of his team for ignoring commands and tower-diving to kill enemies. Subsequent teams didn't let Lu Sheng play Mid, but unexpectedly, Ji Xiangkong gave him another chance this time.

Lin Yixuan was no longer so hostile towards Pei Xi, because Pei Xi had put in a lot of effort to bring down Manager Zhao, and Lin Yixuan was very grateful to Pei Xi. Things were also going smoothly for Yiyi; her article received a great response. Originally, Director Shi didn't like busy life, but the group gave the magazine a budget because of Yiyi, which made Director Shi very happy. Time flew by, and the IConquer Autumn Split began.

In the first match, Legends played against Polaris, and Legends won using a four-protect-one strategy. So, Waiteng's Qi Yue also wanted to use a four-protect-one against Polaris. But Ji Xiangkong thought they could use a new hero combined with a new lineup, which would make it hard for the opponent to figure out their strategy. However, Qi Yue strongly opposed it.

But Lu Sheng finally erupted, saying if Qi Yue didn't want to play Mid, then Lu Sheng wanted to play it himself. Because Shu Wen supported Ji Xiangkong, she not only argued with Qi Yue but also stopped talking to Li Gan. Choosing new heroes this time was indeed risky. To ensure everything went smoothly, Ji Xiangkong stayed up all night studying the tactical plan. Ji Xiangkong felt that Lu Sheng's fighting spirit had finally returned.

In the daytime meeting, Lu Sheng even called Ji Xiangkong "brother". The next day was the match between Waiteng and Polaris. Fans were also looking forward to and guessing what Ji Xiangkong would bring to Waiteng. This time, Qi Yue chose Axin according to Ji Xiangkong's arrangement. Pei Xi took one look at the lineup and said they would lose. It turned out Pei Xi was right; Waiteng lost, and they lost very quickly.

However, Pei Xi made one final prediction: Ji Xiangkong didn't care about the outcome of this match at all. After several matches in the Autumn Split, Waiteng kept losing, while Legends kept winning. Waiteng's fans found it unbelievable. For this defeat, Qi Yue blamed all the responsibility on Ji Xiangkong, and Li Gan finally found an excuse to speak up and oppose Ji Xiangkong.

In the next match, Ji Xiangkong arranged for Lu Sheng to play Mid, and Waiteng's Double Moon combination was restarted. This time, Ji Xiangkong made a military pledge: if they lost, he would give up his position as captain.

Episode 20 Recap

Shu Wen had absolute trust in Ji Xiangkong, which made Li Gan suspect if it was because of Sun Zeyi. Although Shu Wen supported him, she still felt a lot of pressure in her heart. She came to her usual place to practice archery to relieve stress, and Sun Zeyi also came here. Shu Wen remembered the past days, and suddenly her arrows became accurate. This scene was seen by Li Gan outside the door, and he felt very uncomfortable.

The next day was Waiteng's life-and-death match; Waiteng was playing against Legends, and Pei Xi had also been looking forward to this day for a long time. After seeing Waiteng's roster change, the fans all felt that Waiteng was going to fall into Ji Xiangkong's hands. At the start, Lu Sheng almost defeated Pei Xi in Mid, but because Qi Yue didn't go to support him in time, Lu Sheng was taken first blood by Pei Xi.

In the next wave, Ji Xiangkong arranged for Tong Wu to support Lu Sheng, and then told the Double Moon combination to gain vision first and not rush to gank. However, Qi Yue didn't listen to commands; his actions were discovered by Legends, resulting in him being beaten to low health, and then giving Pei Xi a triple kill. In the first game, Waiteng still lost.

Shu Wen and Sun Zeyi both saw that it was Qi Yue who had the problem, but Li Gan blamed everything on Ji Xiangkong and Lu Sheng. Li Gan wanted to order everyone to return to their original positions, but Shu Wen's single sentence exposed Qi Yue's mistake; she told Qi Yue not to make decisions on his own anymore. The second game began, and the audience also lost hope for Waiteng.

Ji Xiangkong understood Lin Yixuan very well; he sent the Double Moon combination to ambush Lin Yixuan as soon as the game started, and Lin Yixuan was taken first blood before his teammates could arrive. Ji Xiangkong's predictions for Legends' arrangements were very accurate; a consecutive triple kill made the whole venue erupt. Under Ji Xiangkong's arrangements and his teammates' cooperation, Waiteng finally secured the victory in the second game.

This game also pushed Qi Yue onto the MVP spot; all the data proved that Ji Xiangkong was right. The third game was the deciding game; Legends was going to use Ji Xiangkong's old method to deal with the Double Moon combination. As soon as Ji Xiangkong saw the characters they chose, he knew what Legends was going to do. In this game, Ji Xiangkong planned to play four-protect-one, with everyone protecting Lu Sheng together.

In this game, Lu Sheng chose the Creator, but the Creator was Pei Xi's signature hero. Pei Xi also saw Ji Xiangkong's tactics and told everyone to gank Lu Sheng together. At first, Lu Sheng still played conservatively, but urged by his teammates, Lu Sheng remembered his anger from that morning; he and Tong Wu tower-dived to kill, and although it was risky, this play was competitive, not only making the whole venue erupt but also stunning Legends.

This game was hard-fought, but Waiteng also secured the final victory. After winning the match, Shu Wen treated everyone to a big meal. Although Ji Xiangkong's contribution was indispensable, he didn't take credit; he attributed the credit to Qi Yue and Lu Sheng, which made Qi Yue a little embarrassed. Qiu Ying, who was watching the match at Dream Traveler, was worried about Ji Xiangkong all day.

When Waiteng lost the match, Qiu Ying wanted to send a text message to check on him but was afraid of disturbing him. In the evening, Qiu Ying finally sent a message to congratulate Ji Xiangkong and asked to meet him at the milk tea shop. Ji Xiangkong was halfway driving when he suddenly received a call from an unknown number; he didn't expect it to be from Fu Miya.

Ji Xiangkong went to see Fu Miya without hesitation, but just as the two were about to enter, they were separated by a large group of Fu Miya's fans. Fu Miya watched Ji Xiangkong's retreating back and found an opportunity to come out and meet with him. As soon as Fu Miya hugged Ji Xiangkong, she was pulled away by her manager Tony, who had rushed over.

Previously, due to her profession, Fu Miya and Ji Xiangkong had limited opportunities to meet. For the sake of her career, Fu Miya broke up with Ji Xiangkong, and he was very sad about this. For this reunion, Ji Xiangkong no longer had the passion he had before.

At this time, Qiu Ying had already been waiting at the milk tea shop for a long time; she had carefully done her makeup and prepared a gift and strawberry milk tea for Ji Xiangkong. Ji Xiangkong never showed up, and his meeting with Fu Miya was also captured by paparazzi.

Episode 21 Recap

Qiu Ying waited at the milk tea shop until it closed, but Ji Xiangkong never showed up. Qiu Ying didn't know what happened. Qiu Ying called Ji Xiangkong, and after making sure he was safe, she also lied to him that she had returned home. Fu Miya's return to the country this time was to be with Ji Xiangkong. For this reason, Fu Miya and her manager had a big fight.

The life of a celebrity over the years made Fu Miya feel tired. The song "Beyond the Sky" created by Fu Miya was sung for Ji Xiangkong. This song was also the theme song for Fu Miya's return to develop her career in the country. When Ji Xiangkong heard this song on the street, he stopped in front of Fu Miya's large screen. Ji Xiangkong's matches were not affected by his mood. Waiteng later achieved a five-game winning streak.

Not only was Qiu Ying happy, but even Pei Xi, the face-paralyzed one, smiled when looking at Ji Xiangkong. Qiu Ying sent a message to congratulate Ji Xiangkong, and Ji Xiangkong also congratulated Qiu Ying for already ranking second in the online voting for Tomorrow's Star. Qiu Ying didn't expect her popularity to be so high. This was also thanks to Xia Ling.

In order to gain popularity for Qiu Ying, Xia Ling kept calling on classmates to vote for his sister every day, but Qiao Xin became the top ranked in voting through other means. When Chairman Guo of Aurora Video introduced Qiao Xin to Luo Tian, Qiao Xin also hinted to Luo Tian that Qiu Ying took shortcuts and gained good reviews by stepping on others' negative information.

Just as Luo Tian finished reading the online posts, Qiu Ying came to find him. Luo Tian had watched many of Qiu Ying's commentary replays, but today Luo Tian wanted to see her improvisation. Qiu Ying had improved a lot during this time, but Luo Tian again misunderstood that Qiu Ying was boosting support posts and was very angry with her. After Qiu Ying left, Luo Tian finally looked at the gift Qiu Ying brought.

Hearing Summer Ummer say that Luo Tian didn't have his own cup, indeed, Luo Tian had a bad stomach and had to swallow medicine dry because he didn't have a cup. This gift and card made Luo Tian feel very thoughtful. Qiu Ying saw the online posts and only then realized that these were all done by Xia Ling. However, Xia Ling's good intentions caused trouble and happened to delay Qiu Ying's matter.

When Qiu Ying found him at school, Xia Ling looked bewildered from being scolded. Although Waiteng won several games, everyone admired Ji Xiangkong very much. However, after getting several MVP titles, Qi Yue thought the credit was all his, and when discussing tactics, Qi Yue didn't participate at all. After the team meeting, Ji Xiangkong came to the milk tea shop to find Qiu Ying. Qiu Ying was nervous about the Tomorrow's Star finals tomorrow.

She kept listening to her own replays, feeling that she still couldn't achieve the emotional richness that Luo Tian talked about. To help Qiu Ying relax, Ji Xiangkong shared his private playlist with her. In the beautiful music, the two faced each other with their eyes closed. This atmosphere truly made Qiu Ying relax. Just as Qiu Ying was about to tell Ji Xiangkong what was on her mind, she was interrupted by two girls next to them.

Photos of Ji Xiangkong and Fu Miya meeting that night were exposed. In order to do public relations, the company arranged a scandal between Fu Miya and Ren Xu. But Fu Miya was very dissatisfied; she wanted to publicly admit her relationship with Ji Xiangkong. After Fu Miya knew about Qiu Ying's existence, she started actively asking Ji Xiangkong out. Ji Xiangkong had originally promised Qiu Ying that he would watch her match.

Now, because of Fu Miya, Ji Xiangkong would be arriving later. Qiao Xin leveraged a lot of connections for this match. Both Aurora and Youxing were looking forward to her performance. The host of the Tomorrow's Star finals was Ah Can. Among the judges, besides several chairmen and professionals, Fu Miya was also one of the judges. The first round was a Q&A.

Because of the cooperation between Qiao Xin and Ah Can, Qiao Xin was always able to grab the questions. But Lin Yixuan also saw through the trick. Qiao Xin answered without thinking after grabbing the question, possibly because she knew the answer beforehand. To avoid being eliminated, Qiu Ying had to answer in advance every time. There was one question: what to do if the screen goes black during commentary. Qiu Ying answered before the options were read out.

Her answer was to maintain the audience's anticipation for the match, not to escalate the sudden situation. Qiu Ying said she would liven up the atmosphere and comfort the audience, which was also the correct answer and was recognized by Luo Tian. Most importantly, Qiu Ying also tied the score with Qiao Xin because of this question. The two would have a commentary battle on the spot. In the makeup room, Qiu Ying was practicing nervously.

Fu Miya outside the door saw how Qiu Ying looked and remembered her own performance when she first debuted. At that time, Ji Xiangkong was also in the audience encouraging her. Just as Fu Miya was about to leave, Ji Xiangkong came over. Hearing Ji Xiangkong's voice, Fu Miya stayed at the door for a while longer. Watching the interaction between the two in the makeup room, Fu Miya felt a little sad and jealous.

Fu Miya believed that Ji Xiangkong liked Qiu Ying because Qiu Ying's smile and her hard-working appearance reminded him of herself. But her manager's words saddened Fu Miya again, because Ji Xiangkong had asked the manager to tell Fu Miya to forget about him.

Episode 22 Recap

The live commentary segment began, and the big screen would randomly select matches for commentary. Qiao Xin was the first commentator, and she performed well. When it was Qiu Ying's turn, she commentated on the IConquer Autumn Split match between Tatans and Legends. During this live commentary, Qiu Ying finally successfully stirred the audience's emotions. At the end of the commentary, Qiu Ying spoke about all of Ji Xiangkong's contributions.

This commentary was very moving, and she said to Ji Xiangkong that she would accompany him to the pinnacle of the world. In the audience voting, Qiao Xin led Qiu Ying, but the final result was still in the hands of the judges.

The leaders from Aurora and Youxing both voted for Qiao Xin, Summer Ummer cast a vote for Qiu Ying, and Luo Tian also felt that Qiu Ying's commentary was full of more passion for IConquer than Qiao Xin's, so he cast his vote for Qiu Ying. Now Qiu Ying and Qiao Xin's votes were tied, and the deciding power fell on Fu Miya. Fu Miya only knew today about the difficulties behind Ji Xiangkong.

She saw that Qiu Ying had done it, so she cast this vote for Qiu Ying. Qiu Ying finally became the champion of Tomorrow's Star. Qiu Ying, Lu Yiyi, Ji Xiangkong, and Lin Yixuan celebrated her victory by going out for barbecue. However, the intimate interaction between Ji Xiangkong and Qiu Ying was photographed by Tony. When Ji Xiangkong came looking that day, he did not see Fu Miya, but instead met Tony.

He knew how much effort Fu Miya had put in to achieve what she had today. He also knew that from the moment they broke up, they were already people from two different worlds. Ji Xiangkong hoped Fu Miya could forget the past and live well in the present with peace of mind. No matter what Tony said, Fu Miya always felt that Ji Xiangkong was doing it for her sake.

The more Ji Xiangkong was like this, the more Fu Miya didn't want to let go. Tony had no choice, and showed Fu Miya the photos of Qiu Ying and the others celebrating. Fu Miya immediately drove to the entrance of the barbecue restaurant. She said she was leaving, and wanted to meet Ji Xiangkong alone. Ji Xiangkong originally wanted to go over, but at this moment, Xia Ling called Qiu Ying.

Besides being at the event, Xia Ling had been frantically campaigning for votes for Qiu Ying outside the venue. He was very happy when he saw his sister become the champion, but just then, a car passed by and scraped Qiu Ying's poster. When Xia Ling rushed into the road to pick up the poster, he was hit by a passing car. On the phone, their father was very angry.

Qiu Ying was also very worried after learning that Xia Ling was injured. Ji Xiangkong immediately rode his bike to take Qiu Ying to the hospital. Just after arriving at the hospital, Xia Ling's mother slapped Qiu Ying. Xia Ling needed a blood transfusion now, but there wasn't enough Type A blood in the hospital. Qiu Ying immediately stepped forward and said she was Type A blood.

Normally, Qiu Ying wasn't nice to Xia Ling, but when Xia Ling was in danger, Qiu Ying was very worried. After a night of rescue efforts, Xia Ling was out of danger, but he had a mild concussion and a fractured right tibia. Xia Ling's mother vented all her anger on Qiu Ying. Ji Xiangkong stayed at the hospital to take care of Qiu Ying. Neither of them slept all night.

Qiu Ying had to report to Aurora, and Ji Xiangkong also had a match. But when Qiu Ying arrived, Luo Tian had already partnered with Qiao Xin to host a program. Luo Tian was very dissatisfied with Qiu Ying's tardiness. He assigned some logistics work to Qiu Ying. While Luo Tian and Qiao Xin were commentating, Qiu Ying was responsible for providing data for them offstage.

After getting off work in the evening, Qiu Ying bought a lot of snacks for Xia Ling, all of which Xia Ling liked to eat. But what made Xia Ling happiest was that Qiu Ying finally no longer held a grudge against him. Qiu Ying came to Dream Traveler to say goodbye to everyone, but Pei Xi was still cold. Qiu Ying is now working at Aurora.

Although she temporarily couldn't partner with Luo Tian, she didn't give up on learning. Even when Luo Tian saw this, he gave his notes to Qiu Ying. He also asked Qiu Ying to help at the analysis desk, letting her listen and learn more. Luo Tian actually had great expectations for Qiu Ying, which is why he was so strict. Ji Xiangkong also told Luo Tian about Xia Ling's car accident. Luo Tian's attitude also changed a lot.

On this day, Qiao Xin was dating Qi Yue at Aurora Video. Qi Yue wanted to publicize their relationship, but Qiao Xin believed this would hinder her career. Unexpectedly, this scene was seen by Qiu Ying who was passing by.

Episode 23 Recap

Qiu Ying thought Qiao Xin and Pei Xi were a couple, so when she saw Pei Xi, she wanted to tell him about Qiao Xin. Pei Xi looked bewildered, not knowing when Qiao Xin had become his girlfriend. Seeing Pei Xi and Qiu Ying leave, Lin Yixuan quickly called Ji Xiangkong over.

As soon as Ji Xiangkong arrived, he heard Pei Xi telling Qiu Ying not to look for Ji Xiangkong anymore in the future and to find him if something happened. Every day, Qiu Ying returned home and studied commentary videos, and in the evening, she cooked soup for Xia Ling. However, Qiu Ying didn't know the situation Xia Ling was currently facing.

Xia Ling kept thinking about his basketball games in the hospital, but according to the doctor's observations, there were no lasting effects inside his skull, but the nerves in his leg were damaged. Even if it could be treated, his ankle joint would be limited, making even walking a problem, let alone playing basketball. Xia Ling, who was outside the door, also heard this situation, and his mood was very low.

When Qiu Ying came to see Xia Ling, Xia Ling actually told her not to come over often. When Xia Ling was discharged from the hospital, he also refused Qiu Ying's care and company because Xia Ling didn't want Qiu Ying to be sad for him. Now Vatten and Legends were preparing for the next match.

Pei Xi wanted to formulate tactics based on the Legends teammates' understanding of Ji Xiangkong, while Ji Xiangkong was training, Qi Yue was not there. Pei Xi had warned Ji Xiangkong earlier, saying that Qi Yue was prone to getting arrogant. Sure enough, Qi Yue was with Qiao Xin in the evening, but lied to everyone that he was visiting his mother.

In the match that day, Vatten secured an eleven-game winning streak, breaking the record, and Qi Yue's MVP also broke Pei Xi's record. This day was also Shu Wen's birthday, and Vatten prepared to celebrate. Sun Zeyi originally just wanted to send a text message to wish her happy birthday, but Li Gan, for some unknown reason, actually came to invite Sun Zeyi.

Sun Zeyi wanted to use his usual excuse to decline, but in the end, he was invited over by Li Gan. Aside from Gu Fang who was abroad, the Trailblazers finally reunited. Li Gan prepared a large cake for Shu Wen. After Shu Wen blew out the candles, Li Gan actually took out a marriage proposal ring. Shu Wen didn't expect this. Li Gan deliberately proposed in front of Sun Zeyi.

In such an awkward atmosphere, Shu Wen did not accept the ring. The failed proposal made Li Gan feel that he was not important in Shu Wen's heart. After the party, Li Gan and Summer Ummer drank to drown their sorrows. Back then, Li Gan rejected the invitation from the American team and started from scratch with Shu Wen to create Vatten.

As the boss of Vatten, Li Gan had no status in the company at all; it had always been Shu Wen who called the shots. Li Gan carried all the pressure of operating the company himself, but no matter how much he contributed, in Shu Wen's heart, he still seemed to be no match for Sun Zeyi. Since the last match, Vatten had taken a ten-day break.

Qi Yue originally thought he could have a good time, but instead, he was called in for extra training. After arriving at the training room, Qi Yue was even more annoyed. It turned out that only the "Double Moon" combination was doing extra training during the break. This extra training was requested by Ji Xiangkong. Although Qi Yue was the MVP in every game, his mistakes were increasing.

Ji Xiangkong earnestly advised Qi Yue, but Qi Yue was complacent and didn't care. On the Legends side, Pei Xi was discussing with everyone how to deal with Ji Xiangkong. Pei Xi wanted to fight fire with fire and even bought a large pile of snacks for his teammates. Pei Xi specifically prepared notes and took careful records, but unexpectedly, these teammates said a bunch of useless things. Moreover, the teammates noticed that when Ji Xiangkong was mentioned, Pei Xi was not as cold as before.

Episode 24 Recap

Ji Xiangkong did not like going to Dream Travelers often, so he brought Qiu Ying to King's Home. Sun Zeyi had a very good impression of Qiu Ying, and Qiu Ying's words were very sweet, which made Sun Zeyi very happy. Qiu Ying showed her commentary script to Ji Xiangkong, and Ji Xiangkong found that she had improved a lot. When facing Ji Xiangkong, Qiu Ying couldn't help but act like a fangirl; her loving gaze made Ji Xiangkong shy.

On the day of the competition, the backstage pass that Fu Miya promised Qiu Ying was also sent over. Qiu Ying was very much looking forward to this performance and hoped that Ji Xiangkong, as a loyal fan, would also like it. Fu Miya had no intention of letting go of Ji Xiangkong yet. She used the reason of finding a suitable advertising partner to look for Vatten.

Li Gan recommended Qi Yue, but Fu Miya had already decided on Ji Xiangkong in her heart. Ji Xiangkong was a bit hesitant, but for the sake of the team, he agreed. Fu Miya felt that in the past, it was always Ji Xiangkong supporting her, and now Fu Miya wanted to be Ji Xiangkong's backup. Fu Miya also brought out the guitar that Ji Xiangkong had given her back then.

Ji Xiangkong had once promised to tune the guitar for Fu Miya for a lifetime. Looking at this guitar, Fu Miya finally found the feeling she had before. But in this atmosphere, what Ji Xiangkong was thinking about was Qiu Ying. And Fu Miya did not simply want to invite Qiu Ying to see her new song release party; she wanted to tell Qiu Ying about Ji Xiangkong and her past to make Qiu Ying leave on her own.

The live commentary by Qiu Ying and Qiao Xin also caused a heated discussion on Weibo. Lu Yiyi discovered that Qiao Xin's script was similar in writing style to Acan's, indicating it was ghostwritten by Acan. The netizens' eyes were also sharp; everyone felt that Qiu Ying was better. But Qiao Xin again added fuel to the fire in front of Acan, badmouthing Qiu Ying.

Acan did not believe that Qiu Ying's level surpassed his own, so he complained to Director Guo. Director Guo criticized Qiu Ying using the reason of not liking internal friction. Just then, Luo Tian walked in. Regarding this matter, Luo Tian had a different opinion. He did not think that writing a good article meant attacking someone. If one wanted to stand on the commentator's stage, they had to rely on real skills.

Hearing Luo Tian's words, Acan felt very unconvinced. Luo Tian's approval made Qiu Ying very happy. Coincidentally, Ji Xiangkong had also booked a restaurant for a meal with Qiu Ying. Legend has it that it was the best confession restaurant. Lin Yixuan asked all his brothers to help, and whoever got the tickets could get three days free at King's Home.

But when Ji Xiangkong came to find Qiu Ying, he never expected that Qiu Ying would actually bring him to Fu Miya's new song release party and even wanted to go backstage to find her. When Qiu Ying insisted on pushing Ji Xiangkong backstage, she saw Fu Miya's intimate actions towards Ji Xiangkong, not knowing what the situation was. Fu Miya took this opportunity to tell Qiu Ying the truth.

Ji Xiangkong reacted quickly; he pushed Fu Miya's hand away and said that Qiu Ying was his girlfriend. But when Qiu Ying heard Ji Xiangkong admit that she was very similar to Fu Miya, Qiu Ying left sadly. Ji Xiangkong quickly chased after her. Qiu Ying was heartbroken; she felt she was just a substitute. It was raining heavily in the evening.

Qiu Ying ran wildly forward on the road, and Ji Xiangkong also desperately chased Qiu Ying's taxi, but he still didn't catch up. Ji Xiangkong invited Qiu Ying to meet at the secret garden, hoping she would give him a chance to explain. But from beginning to end, Qiu Ying never appeared, and her phone couldn't be reached either. Ji Xiangkong opened the gift Qiu Ying had given him earlier alone in the restaurant.

It was Ji Xiangkong's favorite motorcycle model, and the card also said she would accompany him to the IConquer of the world. Ji Xiangkong did not know what to do now. Qiu Ying was sad because of him, and Fu Miya also fell down at the release party because of him. Sun Zeyi suggested that he calm down for a few days first and focus his energy on the playoffs.

Now Qiu Ying also had to prepare for the playoff commentary. According to Luo Tian, if Qiu Ying did not adjust her state, she might not even be qualified to deliver materials in the future.

Episode 25 Recap

Fu Miya suddenly called and said she wanted to meet Qiu Ying. Seeing Fu Miya order a strawberry milk tea, Qiu Ying suddenly understood everything. In front of Qiu Ying, Fu Miya constantly emphasized that they grew up together and how well she knew Ji Xiangkong. Fu Miya told Qiu Ying about the days when she and Ji Xiangkong shared hardships and joys. Qiu Ying thought she couldn't compare to Fu Miya, so she chose to withdraw. The playoffs began.

Ji Xiangkong finally saw Qiu Ying outside the arena, but Qiu Ying didn't give him any chance to speak. While Ji Xiangkong was holding a meeting with his teammates, Qi Yue kept sending text messages to Qiao Xin, not caring about the match at all. Qi Yue again used the excuse that his mother was at the hotel to go to the hotel to find Qiao Xin. Unexpectedly, he saw Qiao Xin with Acan.

Qi Yue didn't want to see Qiao Xin with other men anymore, and Qiao Xin mercilessly said she was breaking up. Qi Yue was heartbroken and drank a lot of alcohol. Li Gan had previously covered for him. Seeing Qi Yue in this state, Li Gan didn't know how to explain to Shu Wen. The match was about to start, and Qiu Ying was also preparing to go on stage to commentate.

To find a chance to explain, Ji Xiangkong came to the commentary booth to find Qiu Ying. Qiu Ying finally agreed to talk to Ji Xiangkong. But while Qiu Ying was away, Qiao Xin took Qiu Ying's commentary materials, tore them into pieces, and threw them into the trash can. Qiu Ying was already in a bad mood. Unexpectedly, Fu Miya also came to the venue, which made Ji Xiangkong a little worried.

Moreover, Qi Yue of Vatten was in a bad state because of drinking. Vatten could be said to be having some difficulties. In the first match, Vatten played against Polaris. As a result, Qi Yue kept failing to develop, the Shuangyue duo was gradually broken up, and they lost the first game to Polaris. And Qi Yue blamed this responsibility on Shen Yue. Li Gan also defended him in front of Shu Wen.

Qiu Ying was also having a hard time. Without data, she often couldn't follow up on Luo Tian's comments. During the break, Luo Tian didn't blame Qiu Ying either. He told Qiu Ying that the most important thing for a professional commentator is to adapt to changes, not to rely on data. In the second game, Ji Xiangkong wanted to implement a specific strategy with the Shuangyue duo, but on the field, Qi Yue didn't listen to commands.

Vatten played messily, and Polaris won completely. Although Qiu Ying commentated very well in this game, news spread online that Qiu Ying destroyed the relationship between Ji Xiangkong and Fu Miya. It was also said online that Qiu Ying got on the commentary stage because of Ji Xiangkong. Seeing this news, Lu Yiyi immediately called Lin Yixuan to ask about the situation. As Ji Xiangkong's good friend, Lin Yixuan didn't even know about Ji Xiangkong and Fu Miya's relationship.

Legends team members were watching the match and also noticed the problem with Vatten's Shuangyue duo. Pei Xi had previously reminded Ji Xiangkong to be careful of Qi Yue. Others were very worried about Ji Xiangkong, but Pei Xi was looking forward to seeing how he would solve this problem.

Episode 26 Recap

After the match, Ji Xiangkong was invited by Acan to meet Fu Miya. Fu Miya encouraged Ji Xiangkong and also directly said that Ji Xiangkong was her first love. Facing Fu Miya's confession, Ji Xiangkong didn't say much to her, only thanking her for coming. Qiu Ying watched this scene from the commentary booth, tears falling from her heart. However, this love that no longer existed was used by Qi Yue as the reason for Tatans' loss.

Lu Sheng couldn't stand Qi Yue shifting blame and almost got into a fight with Qi Yue. Shu Wen was already very disappointed with Qi Yue, and Qi Yue still used his mother as an excuse, so Shu Wen planned not to let him play in the next match. Li Gan kept smoothing things over for Qi Yue. Seeing that he couldn't persuade Shu Wen, he used his status as a major shareholder of the company to pressure her.

Shu Wen ignored his tactics. As the coach, Shu Wen originally had the power to deal with team members. Li Gan was also a bit disappointed with Qi Yue and told him to reflect properly. After the match, Fu Miya's fans surrounded Ji Xiangkong and cursed Qiu Ying for destroying others' relationship. Ji Xiangkong was taken away by his team. The only one who helped Qiu Ying leave the scene was Luo Tian. Qiu Ying returned to the lounge.

Thinking of every word Fu Miya said, she cried very sadly. Just when she needed comfort, the most caring Lu Yiyi came over. Qiu Ying told Lu Yiyi about what had happened these past few days and said that she would put down her feelings and focus all her energy on her work. Fu Miya also paid some price for her confession.

She lost hundreds of thousands of Weibo followers, sponsors withdrew their funding, and her company stopped the production of her new album. This time, Tony didn't blame her. Tony shielded her from everything. Tony was angry, but he was angry that Fu Miya hadn't discussed it with him beforehand. Fu Miya also felt that when she encountered difficulties, the only person she could rely on was Tony. After seeing the online comments, Ji Xiangkong came to find Qiu Ying.

Ji Xiangkong knocked on the door for a long time. Qiu Ying was listening around the corner of the corridor. Ji Xiangkong told Qiu Ying to give him some time and he would handle everything. At this moment, Pei Xi appeared, handed Qiu Ying a tissue, and took Qiu Ying to the rooftop to clear her head.

Pei Xi, with his poker face, actually said that he only cared about Qiu Ying and Ji Xiangkong, and even said he could be Qiu Ying's boyfriend. Pei Xi didn't like Qiu Ying; he just didn't want Qiu Ying to disturb Ji Xiangkong, otherwise Ji Xiangkong wouldn't be in the mood to play matches. Pei Xi's line of thinking left Qiu Ying unable to react for a moment. Ji Xiangkong didn't know what to do now.

If he came forward to clarify, Fu Miya would become the biggest joke in the entertainment industry, and her career would be ruined as a result. But if he didn't come forward, Qiu Ying would continue to be hurt. Because of this, Lu Yiyi lost her temper at Lin Yixuan. Now Fu Miya's predicament was resolved by Tony, and public opinion gradually leaned towards them. Fu Miya had intended to comfort Ji Xiangkong, but Ji Xiangkong avoided seeing her.

Qiu Ying's notes were also found by the cleaning lady. Looking at the ruined notes, Qiu Ying was very sad. Speaking of the trash can, Luo Tian suddenly remembered that he happened to see Qiao Xin being sneaky near the trash can that day. Luo Tian immediately rushed to the makeup room and told Qiao Xin that she could go home. Now Qiu Ying's condition has also adjusted well. This match's commentary is Legends versus Xiaolong.

Without her notes, Qiu Ying is still excellent, and her analysis of Xiaolong and Legends is very accurate. Legends, the world's second-ranked team, won against Xiaolong with no suspense. Next, Xiaolong enters the loser's bracket and will face Tatans. Now the Tatans team has removed Qi Yue and replaced him with Liu Miao. Qi Yue went to the bar to drown his sorrows again. Qiao Xin came to find Qi Yue.

These two are truly a pair, thinking about climbing up without using real skills. Qi Yue wanted to completely break ties with Tatans, but Qiao Xin gave him another idea. Early the next morning, Qi Yue came to Li Gan to admit his mistake. Luo Tian replaced Qiao Xin, but Chairman Guo disagreed. He felt that commentary skill is one thing, but character is even more important.

Now Qiu Ying has too much negative news, and Chairman Guo is afraid that she will affect Polaris' reputation. Furthermore, Chairman Guo is very suspicious of Luo Tian's feelings for Qiu Ying, as he has never seen Luo Tian care so much about anyone for so many years. During the morning meeting, Qiao Xin intentionally or unintentionally let Qiu Ying hear a piece of news. She said something happened to Tatans, and Ji Xiangkong fainted. Hearing this news, Qiu Ying quickly called Ji Xiangkong.

Episode 27 Recap

When Qiu Ying rushed to Weiteng's meeting room, Ji Xiangkong had not fainted. Ji Xiangkong finally found a chance to explain and confess; he held Qiu Ying tightly and wouldn't let go, and Qiu Ying didn't know what to do. Ji Xiangkong, in his excitement, kissed Qiu Ying, but Qiu Ying felt she couldn't compare to Fu Miya, and since it hadn't truly begun, perhaps it should end like this.

Qiu Ying quickly ran to the rooftop and cried loudly; coincidentally, Luo Tian was also on the rooftop thinking about himself and Qiu Ying, and he also hoped this was the last time he would see Qiu Ying cry. On Weiteng's side, Ji Xiangkong held a tactical meeting for everyone, and Qi Yue also came.

Against Xiaolong, Ji Xiangkong had already thought of a strategy, but Ji Xiangkong's tactics were recorded by Qi Yue, and the recording pen was accidentally seen by Tong Wu. When Ji Xiangkong arrived at the match venue, Xiaolong provoked him, and Ji Xiangkong didn't want to argue with them. But Xiaolong insulted Qiu Ying, and Ji Xiangkong couldn't stand it, rushing over to fight.

Seeing that things were going badly, Pei Xi rushed over and used his face to block Ji Xiangkong's punch, which finally calmed the conflict. As soon as Ji Xiangkong and the others arrived at the meeting room, Li Gan produced a recording, and the content of Ji Xiangkong's meeting from yesterday had already spread online.

Shu Wen planned to prepare a second tactic, but Li Gan claimed that the person who leaked the meeting content was Qiu Ying, because Qiu Ying had been to Weiteng's meeting room before the meeting. He planned to put Ji Xiangkong on the substitute bench and let Qi Yue play. Qiu Ying was also summoned by the organizing committee for investigation, and her commentary work was suspended; Chairman Guo let Qiao Xin partner with Luo Tian.

Li Gan and Qi Yue had already finalized the new tactics, and Shu Wen didn't expect Li Gan to still pressure her with his identity as manager. Seeing the personnel changes at Weiteng, Pei Xi directly said that Weiteng was finished. As expected, Weiteng's gameplay was very chaotic, constantly being led by the opponent's rhythm, and ultimately lost completely to Xiaolong. After Fu Miya heard about Ji Xiangkong's situation, she also rushed over anxiously to accompany him.

Unexpectedly, there was a large group of reporters outside the door, and Lu Yiyi was among them; she hoped Ji Xiangkong could clear Qiu Ying's name. Facing Lu Yiyi, Ji Xiangkong told the truth, saying that he and Fu Miya were now friends, and that he wanted to be Qiu Ying's boyfriend. Unexpectedly, Fu Miya's car was right behind him; Fu Miya hoped Ji Xiangkong could give her a clear answer, but Ji Xiangkong only said three words: "I'm sorry."

Qiu Ying was very moved when she heard Ji Xiangkong's words, but as soon as she went out, she encountered Fu Miya's crazy fans. They kept saying Qiu Ying seduced someone else's boyfriend and even splashed water on her. This time, she bravely faced this group of fans and loudly declared her feelings for Ji Xiangkong.

This group of fans still refused to back down, and finally, the imposing Lu Yiyi rushed in to subdue the fans and took Qiu Ying away. After so many things happened, Shu Wen was very self-blaming, especially towards Ji Xiangkong. Sun Zeyi knew that Ji Xiangkong wouldn't blame Shu Wen; he also didn't want Shu Wen to put too much pressure on herself.

Now Ji Xiangkong was out of contact, his phone was off, and he wasn't at Wangzhe Zhi Jia (King's Home); Qiu Ying desperately looked for him. Suddenly, Qiu Ying remembered a place, the milk tea shop. Under the persuasion of the staff, Ji Xiangkong was just about to call Qiu Ying when Qiu Ying appeared. Now the two of them could finally face their feelings openly, and Qiu Ying proactively kissed Ji Xiangkong.

The next day, Ji Xiangkong signed a contract termination agreement with Li Gan. Ji Xiangkong didn't say a single extra word to Li Gan, but he felt very sorry for Shu Wen. Before leaving, Lu Sheng invited Ji Xiangkong for a satisfying game of basketball. Watching this scene, Tong Wu felt very uncomfortable; Ji Xiangkong had taken good care of him, and he knew the truth but couldn't say it.

Leaving Weiteng was a bit regrettable, but now that he could be happily with Qiu Ying, Ji Xiangkong was also very happy. After Ji Xiangkong left, Shu Wen felt it was time for her to leave too. Shu Wen thanked Li Gan for his contribution to Weiteng, but their philosophies were different, and they were bound to part ways sooner or later; however, Li Gan thought Shu Wen was leaving because of Sun Zeyi.

Episode 28 Recap

Ji Xiangkong could finally go on a date with Qiu Ying. He took Qiu Ying to the secret garden to make up for the regret of that day. Fu Miya also decided to let go. She recorded a video wishing Ji Xiangkong and Qiu Ying well, and sang "Beyond the Sky" for Ji Xiangkong one last time. The organizing committee's investigation into Qiu Ying had no result yet, but Chairman Guo of Jiguang intended to fire Qiu Ying.

But Luo Tian spoke up for Qiu Ying, saying if they fired Qiu Ying, then they should fire him first. Pei Xi was very concerned about Ji Xiangkong's next move. Pei Xi surprisingly said that wherever Ji Xiangkong went, he would go too. These words, similar to a confession, made Ji Xiangkong really want to laugh.

Ji Xiangkong estimated that no team would take him in next, but Pei Xi's words gave him a hint; he could completely form his own team. When Pei Xi told Summer Ummer that he was going to terminate his contract with Legends and follow Ji Xiangkong, it infuriated Summer Ummer, especially when Summer Ummer heard he had to pay Legends' breach of contract fee himself. Sun Zeyi also knew that this was the only path Ji Xiangkong could take next.

Qiu Ying also encouraged Ji Xiangkong to respect his inner self, rise from the ashes and be reborn. Since it was a rebirth from the ashes, Ji Xiangkong named the team Phoenix. Qiu Ying was willing to stand by Ji Xiangkong and support him, and on the other hand, she didn't want to cause Luo Tian any more trouble, so she planned to resign from Jiguang.

Luo Tian had one more request, which was for Qiu Ying to give him one post-match review video per week. Next, Ji Xiangkong was busy designing the logo for team Phoenix, selecting team uniforms, and choosing a training base. One person Ji Xiangkong planned to add to the team was Pei Xi. Pei Xi had also been waiting eagerly for Ji Xiangkong all day at Dream Traveler.

Besides Pei Xi, Ji Xiangkong also wanted to recruit one more person, and that was Sun Zeyi. It was a big regret that Sun Zeyi couldn't win the championship with the Pioneers back then. Ji Xiangkong wanted to lead Sun Zeyi to win the championship again. But Sun Zeyi felt he was old, and the golden age for professional players had passed. Moreover, he hadn't resolved the emotional knot from that match back then, so he refused Ji Xiangkong.

But when Sun Zeyi saw the Phoenix team uniform, the passion from back then seemed to return to his heart. To persuade Sun Zeyi, Ji Xiangkong planned to seek help from Shu Wen and Summer Ummer. There must have been some hidden inside story about Sun Zeyi's departure back then. The next day, Pei Xi officially terminated his contract with Legends. He thought his Legends teammates wouldn't care about his departure, so he didn't say goodbye in person.

But he didn't know that after spending time together, Lin Yixuan and others had already considered him a brother. Halfway there, Pei Xi looked at the Legends emblem and couldn't help but return to say goodbye to everyone. Before Pei Xi left, everyone had already recognized Pei Xi as the captain, and everyone said sorry to him. But when Pei Xi really stood in front of Ji Xiangkong, Ji Xiangkong refused him.

Because Pei Xi always fought alone and didn't understand how to cooperate with teammates. After Summer Ummer returned, he told Ji Xiangkong about the inside story from back then. Back then, Li Gan was originally a substitute, and the Pioneers had no money to go to Vancouver. To raise money, Li Gan mortgaged his house for 300,000, allowing the Pioneers the chance to go to Vancouver and win the championship. Li Gan's contribution made Sun Zeyi choose to leave the Pioneers to fulfill everyone's dreams.

Episode 29 Recap

Shu Wen was going to Singapore, and everyone was worried about Sun Zeyi. Sun Zeyi pretended not to care, but he also rushed to the airport. By the time he arrived, the plane had just taken off, and Sun Zeyi thought he would never see Shu Wen again. Unexpectedly, as soon as Sun Zeyi returned to the Home of Glory, Shu Wen was waiting for him there. Shu Wen took him to the Pioneers' training base from back then.

Inside, there were videos of Sun Zeyi's superb skills from that time. When he turned around, the Pioneers' members and fans were back. Sun Zeyi not winning the championship trophy became everyone's regret. Sun Zeyi took on his mission again and agreed to join team Phoenix. From the ashes, reborn, it wasn't just about Ji Xiangkong, but also about Sun Zeyi. As for Pei Xi, Ji Xiangkong didn't completely reject him.

He wanted Pei Xi to clearly consider his weaknesses and change them, so Ji Xiangkong first gave him a sparring partner position. Pei Xi not only agreed, but also proposed to make Dream Traveler the training base for team Phoenix. Summer Ummer was really speechless. This wasn't a younger brother, he was clearly a lord. However, Luo Tian and Gu Fang had a better suggestion. They planned to give the Pioneers' training base to team Phoenix.

Just as everyone was celebrating, Lin Yixuan came over, but he was very unhappy because Ji Xiangkong hadn't told him about forming a new team. Ji Xiangkong didn't want Lin Yixuan to start from scratch with him, but Lin Yixuan had already committed to him. So Lin Yixuan also planned to terminate his contract with Legends, and he would handle the breach of contract fee himself. The party ended in the evening, and everyone went back to their homes.

Only Shu Wen and Sun Zeyi remained at Dream Traveler. Shu Wen wanted to hear Sun Zeyi's explanation about what happened back then. After winning the championship back then, Shu Wen couldn't share it with Sun Zeyi, and she cried all night. Sun Zeyi hoped others would help take care of Shu Wen, but in the end, he lost Shu Wen. Over the years, Sun Zeyi's love for Shu Wen had never decreased.

True lovers finally got together, and the two passionately embraced and kissed. The next day, everyone came together to clean the training base. Before cleaning, Pei Xi's equipment really surprised everyone. With gloves, masks, goggles, and a hazmat suit, it looked like he was clearing biological weapons. After everyone's efforts throughout the day, the training base was completely refreshed, just like a warm little home. When assigning rooms, Pei Xi actually wanted to share a room with Ji Xiangkong.

This sudden intimacy startled Ji Xiangkong. Besides lacking money, the biggest difficulty for team Phoenix was a lack of players. Ji Xiangkong didn't think highly of the top-ranked players in the national server. At this time, Sun Zeyi introduced a mysterious player to Ji Xiangkong. This player was incredibly skilled, but their identity was unknown. Sun Zeyi used Ji Xiangkong's account to invite him for a match. The mysterious player surprisingly accepted the challenge and even defeated Ji Xiangkong.

The mysterious player even sent a message at the end saying Ji Xiangkong wasn't worthy of Qiu Ying. Ji Xiangkong thought it was a fan of Qiu Ying. So Qiu Ying sent him a message to arrange a meeting, but the mysterious player refused again. At this time, her father called Qiu Ying to come over and talk about Xia Ling. During this period, Xia Ling was sad at home because he couldn't play basketball, not even wanting to eat.

Qiu Ying didn't expect Xia Ling's injury to be so serious. What was even more serious now was that Xia Ling's mindset had issues; he had been holed up at home unwilling to see people. Her father knew that Xia Ling listened to Qiu Ying the most, and he hoped Qiu Ying could talk to Xia Ling. Qiu Ying returned home and pulled open Xia Ling's curtains, allowing his room to be filled with sunlight again.

Facing Xia Ling, Qiu Ying was full of self-blame. She hoped Xia Ling could return to his former cheerful self. During the conversation, Qiu Ying accidentally discovered that Xia Ling was also playing IConquer. She thought Xia Ling would want to see Ji Xiangkong or Pei Xi, but Xia Ling always felt that after his legs were inconvenient, he would only be a burden to others.

Episode 30 Recap

During this time, Lin Yixuan had been raising money for the breach of contract fee. To earn money, Lin Yixuan wanted to sell his trophies. For this, he found Lu Yiyi for help. For Lin Yixuan, Ji Xiangkong also sold his motorcycle and some other things. Pei Xi also started seriously working as a sparring partner in team Phoenix. He began to learn how to cooperate with others, and Ji Xiangkong's effort was not in vain.

Immediately after, Ji Xiangkong came to Legends to pay the breach of contract fee for Lin Yixuan. Lin Yixuan didn't expect that Ji Xiangkong had sold his motorcycle to raise money. He decided he must repay this kindness properly. This time, Ji Xiangkong suddenly poached two of Coach Luo's top players. Coach Luo didn't blame him; instead, he greatly admired his spirit of doing anything for his dream. As soon as Lin Yixuan arrived, he showed off to Pei Xi.

Lin Yixuan also wanted to share a room with Ji Xiangkong, but he didn't expect Pei Xi had already gotten there first. Pei Xi actually felt that the sparring partner life for the past two days was not bad, and cooperating with teammates also brought a great sense of satisfaction. Previously, Pei Xi simply thought Ji Xiangkong's tactics were great, so he wanted to cooperate with Ji Xiangkong. But Lu Sheng and Tong Wu both changed because of Ji Xiangkong.

Pei Xi also wanted to change himself and follow Ji Xiangkong to the world champion stage, so he joined Phoenix at all costs. Recently, team Phoenix had been looking for this mysterious player 409, but Pei Xi had asked everyone at Dream Traveler, and no one knew his real identity. It wasn't until Qiu Ying brought Xia Ling to team Phoenix that Ji Xiangkong discovered that Xia Ling was the mysterious player.

At first, Xia Ling didn't plan to admit it, but his duel with Pei Xi allowed everyone to see that Xia Ling's moves were very similar to 409's. To force Xia Ling to admit it, Ji Xiangkong deliberately looked down on him, and sure enough, Xia Ling couldn't hold back and admitted it. Ji Xiangkong greatly admired his skill level and wanted to invite him to join team Phoenix, but Xia Ling couldn't be bothered with him.

It wasn't that Xia Ling disliked Ji Xiangkong; he just lacked confidence in himself. Pei Xi also didn't want to miss out on this talent. He wanted Xia Ling to see a glimmer of light in the abyss. Pei Xi spread the news that Xia Ling was 409 throughout the school. Everyone highly praised his skills, and many people asked for his WeChat. After seeing the news, Xia Ling immediately came to team Phoenix.

But he wasn't there to join; he was there to question them. Because Xia Ling felt that everyone in the school thought his legs were useless, but in fact, others greatly admired him. Xia Ling had simply exaggerated his own shortcomings. The current Xia Ling was like the previous Pei Xi; he always liked to be by himself, was afraid of others looking at him with strange eyes, and didn't welcome others into his world.

But now in Phoenix, Pei Xi finally understood that IConquer was not a one-person sport, and his smiles gradually increased. Pei Xi's personal example allowed Xia Ling to let go of his hang-ups. After returning home, Xia Ling saw his parents researching his rehabilitation, and his classmates also sent encouraging videos. Xia Ling finally figured things out and decided to go back to school for classes.

Seeing that the IConquer registration window was about to close, after hearing that Xia Ling had returned to school, everyone thought Xia Ling really couldn't come. Just as Qiu Ying was about to contact someone else, Xia Ling appeared at the door. He agreed to join team Phoenix. Through Xia Ling's matter, Ji Xiangkong also felt that Pei Xi had changed a lot. So on this day, Ji Xiangkong also announced that Pei Xi had become an official member of team Phoenix, and the members of team Phoenix were finally complete.

Episode 31 Recap

The 2019 IConquer Spring Split was about to begin. Team Phoenix, as a newly promoted team, attracted widespread attention. In the first match, Phoenix faced Xiaolong, and Phoenix won very easily. This kind of successful start made the audience on site feel excited. Even Summer Ummer and Shu Wen highly praised Pei Xi's progress and changes. But Qiu Ying felt very uncomfortable watching Qiao Xin on the commentary desk.

With the first battle successful, Team Phoenix received many gifts from fans, and Xia Ling also became famous. But now his parents knew that Xia Ling wasn't studying at school but was "fooling around" here. His parents wanted to take Xia Ling home, but Xia Ling didn't want to go back. Now, Xia Ling's mother misunderstood Qiu Ying even more. His mother's lack of understanding finally made Xia Ling unable to hold back and burst out.

From childhood to now, his mother had hurt the whole family due to her own prejudice. Now Xia Ling hoped his mother could let him realize his own value. After hearing these words, his mother finally reflected on her own mistakes. Although his mother still couldn't understand esports, seeing Xia Ling regain his confidence through esports, his mother finally agreed. The next day, his mother asked his father to bring Xia Ling lots of delicious food.

Qiu Ying also called him Dad. Now the whole family had finally resolved their issues. In this Spring Split, Team Phoenix swept through various teams. Three months later, they ranked first in points and successfully entered the playoffs. In the evening, Ji Xiangkong was studying new tactics. Qiu Ying originally wanted to accompany him. But with Qiu Ying there, Ji Xiangkong couldn't focus on the game.

Ji Xiangkong teased Qiu Ying with a face mask, causing Qiu Ying to accidentally sit on his lap. Qiu Ying felt a rush of shyness and immediately ran back to her room to sleep. The next day, Ji Xiangkong researched the teams in the playoffs. Among them, the Xintu and Jushi teams were Phoenix's biggest opponents currently. Ji Xiangkong planned to change tactics, and the name of the new tactic was called the Shadow Tactic.

The key point of the Shadow Tactic lay in free switching positions. Pei Xi was suitable for Mid, and Xia Ling was good at Jungler. These two could flexibly switch positions during the game and could freely combine with Lin Yixuan. When necessary, they could even initiate a three-person small team fight on the bot lane. They would roam the entire map, assist each other, making it unpredictable for the opponents.

The tactic was excellent, but implementing it was not simple, especially for Xia Ling, who felt very unsure about playing Mid. The playoffs began. The first match was Phoenix against Xintu, and this was also the first time Phoenix used the Shadow Tactic. In the first game, the Shadow Tactic didn't perform very well. Xia Ling gave up First Blood, Pei Xi's development was insufficient, and Sun Zeyi was controlled again. As a result, Ji Xiangkong chose to surrender.

After losing a game, everyone's mood was low, especially Xia Ling, who was very self-blaming. After the match, Shu Wen called Ji Xiangkong and the others to Wangzhe Zhi Jia to talk. The Shadow Tactic was good, and Xia Ling's skill level wasn't low; he just lacked some competitive experience. Summer Ummer suggested bringing Pei Xi back. If Phoenix lost one more game, they wouldn't be able to enter the Global Finals.

After watching this match, netizens also attacked Ji Xiangkong and Xia Ling. Xia Ling looked at these comments and lost his confidence again. Now Ji Xiangkong bore even greater pressure; he couldn't let the team lose again. But even with great pressure, Ji Xiangkong disagreed with switching Pei Xi and Xia Ling back. If they were switched back, it would show a lack of trust in them. All the team members also agreed with Ji Xiangkong's decision. Between brothers, mutual trust and encouragement were needed. Now Xia Ling and Pei Xi needed more time to adjust. Even when Xia Ling did rehabilitation, Pei Xi accompanied him.

Episode 32 Recap

Now Xia Ling's leg has become worse. The doctor thinks this is due to excessive psychological pressure. To support Xia Ling, Team Phoenix successively posted on Weibo to explain the situation to everyone and help Xia Ling share the pressure. However, the one who understood Xia Ling the most was still Pei Xi. Pei Xi didn't comfort Xia Ling but furiously cursed that Xia Ling and Qiu Ying were trash.

Xia Ling was so angry that he finally got up from the ground without crutches and punched Pei Xi. Stimulated by Pei Xi, Xia Ling regained his confident appearance. Before the match, Pei Xi specially invited the Pioneers team to be Team Phoenix's training partners. The Pioneers were short one person, so they invited China's top e-sports player, Li Xiaofeng, which made Team Phoenix both excited and scared. Everyone trained very hard during this time and was also very happy.

At night, they all squeezed onto the sofa and slept together. Although the Pioneers team were veterans, they were sometimes badly defeated by Phoenix. After continuous training, Phoenix won match after match in the subsequent games. Finally, Phoenix would compete against Vittoria in the championship final. Currently, Vittoria's situation is not optimistic. Qi Yue's command was chaotic, and after losing, he blamed all the responsibility on his teammates.

Qi Yue's attitude was something Lu Sheng couldn't stand for a long time, and the two of them got into a fight. Tong Wu could no longer tolerate it. He planned to report Qi Yue for leaking secrets. Tong Wu was worried about not having evidence, so Lu Sheng brought him to find Luo Tian. It just so happened that Luo Tian had been investigating this matter.

Luo Tian took the two of them to the hotel to retrieve the video. After obtaining the evidence, the organizing committee also investigated Qi Yue. As soon as Qi Yue heard that he was going to be taken away by the organizing committee, he immediately panicked. Now Qiao Xin's good days were also coming to an end. A Can was not as enthusiastic towards her, and the organizing committee also started investigating Qiao Xin.

On the day of the final, all of Pei Xi's fans gathered in front of Phoenix's car and shouted for Pei Xi to be the Mid. They still couldn't understand the Shadow Tactic. In this match between Phoenix and Vittoria, Xia Ling immediately got a triple kill in the Mid lane at the beginning, which impressed everyone. Following that, their Shadow Tactic cooperation was quite coordinated. Team Phoenix won the first game.

Xia Ling's parents also rushed to the scene to watch Xia Ling's match. Now Vittoria and Phoenix were tied 1-1, and the last game was the match point. Xia Ling used himself as bait, and the Shuang Yue duo successfully fell for it. Then Pei Xi provided him with support. The Shuang Yue duo had low health, and Ji Xiangkong and Lin Yixuan came to support. The Shuang Yue duo was finished.

Everyone felt that Phoenix's support was truly too fast. The Shadow Tactic made Vittoria somewhat confused. A triple kill followed by a quadra kill, and then a team wipe. Xia Ling finally used his sole strength to block the full resurrection of Vittoria's entire team. Phoenix won the final championship, and the whole arena was boiling. Qiu Ying's family also happily hugged each other in the stands. After this match, Xia Ling won MVP, and everyone recognized Xia Ling's strength.

He was no longer that rookie Mid player. In the evening, everyone had dinner together. Lu Yiyi took this opportunity to do an exclusive interview. Ji Xiangkong was very grateful to his brothers. Xia Ling also fulfilled his dream of becoming a hero, and Pei Xi liked his current self even more. Now everyone is working together with one heart and one mind, moving hand in hand towards the pinnacle of the world.

This year's Global Finals were held in China. Ji Xiangkong could lead the team onto that stage, but Qiu Ying couldn't be on the final stage to commentate, which made Ji Xiangkong feel very sorry. At this moment, Ji Xiangkong received another call from Fu Miya; it was Tony calling. Recently, in order to transition, Fu Miya wanted to sing and play guitar on stage and also do wire stunts. But an accident happened during rehearsal.

Fu Miya fell from the wire. Intracranial hematoma was pressing on her optic nerve, and she might lose her sight. Fu Miya had previously worked as a stunt double to give Ji Xiangkong a computer, and she had injured her head at that time. Now with the new injury added to the old one, Fu Miya's situation was very critical. Ji Xiangkong also felt very guilty and stayed by Fu Miya's bedside.

After Fu Miya woke up, her mood remained very low. Losing her sight made Fu Miya feel no sense of security at all. Ji Xiangkong stayed by her side, comforting her until she fell asleep.

Episode 33 Recap

Ji Xiangkong stayed with Fu Miya from afternoon until midnight. Qiu Ying waited for him at the training base. Xia Ling felt very sorry for his sister. He felt that Ji Xiangkong was unfair to Qiu Ying. Although Qiu Ying was a little sad, she also understood Ji Xiangkong's guilt towards Fu Miya. Ji Xiangkong had been by Fu Miya's side these past few days, and Qiu Ying hadn't been resting very well either.

However, there was also something that made Qiu Ying happy: the organizing committee had thoroughly investigated the secret leakage incident. Qiao Xin was fired by Jixing, and Qi Yue was banned for one year. Furthermore, Chairman Guo also agreed to let Luo Tian and Qiu Ying commentate on the Global Finals together. Qiao Xin wanted to beg Luo Tian for another chance, but it was the organizing committee's decision, and Luo Tian couldn't change it.

Qiao Xin originally thought there was no hope, but Mr. Liu from You Xing gave her a bad idea again, telling her to push all the blame onto Qi Yue, saying that Qi Yue instigated her. Qiao Xin had a last bit of conscience; she didn't want to do that. She finally understood that she could have clearly gotten onto the commentary desk with her strength before, but she had focused on the wrong things.

From now on, she didn't want to compare herself with anyone. Mr. Liu wanted to threaten Qiao Xin with future development resources, but Qiao Xin no longer cared about these. The truth about the secret leakage came to light. Qiu Ying happily bought flowers to see Fu Miya. When she walked to the hospital entrance, she saw Fu Miya and Ji Xiangkong hugging each other. Fu Miya now felt like she had lost everything: love, career, health.

Without Ji Xiangkong's company, Fu Miya was very scared. Ji Xiangkong also promised that he would stay by her side until Fu Miya recovered. Hearing these words, Qiu Ying sadly went home. After going home, Qiu Ying made a decision. She wanted to go back to Jiguang to be a commentator because she felt Phoenix didn't need her anymore, and she wanted to pursue her own dream. Ji Xiangkong didn't return until the next morning.

Qiu Ying had made breakfast and left after putting a letter for everyone on the table. Ji Xiangkong sat alone in the empty room. The content of the letter made him shed tears. Afterwards, Ji Xiangkong sat in a bubble tea shop and thought for a long time. In the end, he only sent Qiu Ying a text message, telling her to take good care of herself. Qiu Ying arrived at the stage of her dreams.

The current Qiu Ying was no longer as timid as she used to be; she had become mature and steady, which Luo Tian greatly appreciated. Luo Tian thought Qiu Ying would be very sad after leaving Ji Xiangkong, and he was ready to be Qiu Ying's listener at any time. But Qiu Ying was not that sad now. Ji Xiangkong's existence, on the contrary, gave her more courage to climb higher mountains.

Tony accidentally discovered that Fu Miya's eyes were better, but Fu Miya asked Tony not to tell anyone. Ji Xiangkong heard the news from the doctor and thought Fu Miya would never recover. When Ji Xiangkong came to the ward to see Fu Miya, Fu Miya still pretended she couldn't see. But Ji Xiangkong noticed something was off because he found a mirror by Fu Miya's bedside.

Episode 34 Recap

The day before the match, Lin Yixuan had dinner with Lu Yiyi, and they both drank a lot of alcohol again. Taking advantage of being drunk, Lu Yiyi recalled something from three years ago. That boy kissed her, but after Lu Yiyi confessed, the boy blocked her on WeChat and all other social media. At this moment, Lin Yixuan's emotions suddenly surged. He said if he kissed Lu Yiyi, he would definitely not disappear, but Lu Yiyi didn't believe him.

To prove he could do it, Lin Yixuan pulled Lu Yiyi and kissed her. After Lu Yiyi came to her senses, she quickly pushed him away and ran off. After returning home, both of them felt uneasy and anxious. They wanted to call but didn't dare. When it was time to leave the next day, Lin Yixuan kept trying to call Lu Yiyi but couldn't get through.

When Lin Yixuan sent a voice message to Lu Yiyi, he found that Lu Yiyi had blocked him on Weibo and WeChat. Lin Yixuan had no choice but to go to the magazine office to find her. At this time, Lu Yiyi was also anxious. Seeing Lin Yixuan arrive, Lu Yiyi was both anxious and shy. Before leaving, Lin Yixuan gave Lu Yiyi another kiss and told her not to disappear again.

Lu Yiyi also happily waited here for Lin Yixuan to come back as champion. On the day of the match, Qiu Ying and Luo Tian were eating in the restaurant, but she always felt that other colleagues were secretly watching them, and the atmosphere was strange. Qiu Ying found an excuse to go back to the hotel and happened to run into Ji Xiangkong and his teammates coming over. Everyone tactfully left, leaving Ji Xiangkong and Qiu Ying.

Ji Xiangkong said that he had not forgotten their promise, and they would walk towards the summit of the world together. Qiu Ying didn't say too many sweet words, just told Phoenix to cheer up. The 2019 IConquer Global Finals began. In China, the most anticipated teams were still the Phoenix team and the Legends team. In the first match, Legends played against Super Sense. In the second match, Legends played against Tatans. Without Ji Xiangkong's command, Legends were defeated.

Seeing such a result, Lin Yixuan rushed over and hugged his former teammates. The Legends team gave their emblems to the Phoenix team, placing all their hopes on Phoenix. Next came Phoenix's battle. They cleared all the way through and became the champions of the winner's bracket. Fu Miya was very happy to see Ji Xiangkong's victory. She wanted to go to the venue to support Ji Xiangkong. But Fu Miya was becoming more and more obsessed.

Even Tony felt that she was emotionally manipulating Ji Xiangkong. Fu Miya begged Tony to help her one more time. Qi Yue was also obsessed now. Looking at Ji Xiangkong's victory, he still wanted to play some small tricks in private. But Qiao Xin had thought clearly. They had today's result not because of anyone else; it was all their own fault. Qiao Xin stopped Qi Yue from continuing to do wrong things.

Her love made Qi Yue stop thinking about those messy things. Qiu Ying's condition had also fully recovered. Luo Tian was also very happy to see her like this. Qiu Ying accidentally found her work badge in Luo Tian's notebook. Luo Tian awkwardly explained that he just helped Qiu Ying put it away. Luo Tian also didn't allow Qiu Ying to call him 'teacher' anymore and even invited her for dinner alone that evening.

Now the Jixing employees were all gossiping about Luo Tian and Qiu Ying, and it happened to be overheard by Ji Xiangkong. During dinner, Luo Tian was a bit nervous. This was the first time he had celebrated his birthday with someone else, and also the first time he had received a birthday present. Luo Tian also prepared a small gift for Qiu Ying.

He hoped that from tomorrow onwards, Qiu Ying would regard herself as the most professional female commentator. After Ji Xiangkong heard the gossip, he returned to his room and was also restless. Luo Tian also suddenly invited Ji Xiangkong for a drink on the rooftop. Facing Luo Tian this time, Ji Xiangkong was full of jealousy. Luo Tian was also very angry at Ji Xiangkong.

Qiu Ying had given so much for him, but every time Ji Xiangkong pushed Qiu Ying into the spotlight because of Fu Miya. But Luo Tian was also very sad. He indeed wanted to confess today, but Qiu Ying didn't give him a chance to speak at all. Luo Tian also warned Ji Xiangkong that if Ji Xiangkong didn't resolve the matter with Fu Miya, he would definitely take Qiu Ying away from him.

Episode 35 (Ending) Recap

Phoenix's shadow strategy had always been unsolvable, and seeing the finals about to begin, Jeffrey was very anxious. Just by appearing on the competition stage, the two teams were already full of a sense of rivalry. Qiu Ying finally achieved her dream, standing on the commentary platform at the summit of the world. And she was also the first female host of the IConquer Global Finals. For this commentary, Luo Tian also invited Gu Fang to join him.

What surprised Gu Fang even more was that Ji Xiangkong chose Holy Spirit Princess in the first game, which was Gu Fang's signature hero. Ji Xiangkong wanted Holy Spirit Princess to return to the stage. The Phoenix team was full of fighting spirit, while the Tatans also had a secret weapon. Even Luo Tian and the others couldn't understand the Phoenix team's strategy now.

After several waves of attacks from the combined efforts of Phoenix players, Jeffrey felt that this game could no longer be won. Jeffrey planned to pretend to lose the first game to Phoenix, and his performance confused the Phoenix players. Ji Xiangkong felt that winning this game also involved some luck, and he was vaguely worried about something. At the start of the second game, Jeffrey was not afraid of the shadow strategy at all.

Xia Ling guessed whether they had broken the shadow strategy, but others didn't believe the shadow strategy was that easy to break. When the Tatans finished selecting their characters, Ji Xiangkong was even more confused, because the Tatans chose the exact same heroes as the previous game. As a result, in this game, the Tatans' four players coordinated using a double shadow strategy, which perfectly countered Phoenix's shadow strategy.

The Tatans quickly achieved a pentakill in this game, took down the Elder Dragon, and the Tatans were tied with Phoenix one to one. In the last game, Ji Xiangkong didn't know what to do anymore. He estimated that all their strategies could already be countered by the Tatans. Seeing Ji Xiangkong fail, Fu Miya immediately got up and went to the lounge.

Listening to Qiu Ying's commentary this time, Fu Miya felt that Qiu Ying understood Ji Xiangkong better than she did. Fu Miya also confessed to Ji Xiangkong that her eyes had recovered, that she knew she was wrong, and this time she sincerely blessed them. Luo Tian asked Qiu Ying to go visit Ji Xiangkong, telling them not to carry a psychological burden into the next game.

But when Qiu Ying arrived, she happened to see Fu Miya and Ji Xiangkong's final hug. Ji Xiangkong wanted to rush over to find Qiu Ying, but the match was about to start, there was no time. In this game, the Phoenix team was left only with mission and responsibility, without strategy. The dream they wanted had been realized, and they planned to enjoy this game. The Phoenix team fought for a long time on the stage.

They wore the emblems of Legends, Pioneers, and Weiten on their bodies. All Chinese fans stood up and applauded for them. In this game, Ji Xiangkong let everyone choose their most skilled heroes, but as soon as the game started, Phoenix was heavily damaged. The economy difference between Tatans and Phoenix was already significant, and Ji Xiangkong was constantly in a state of giving up.

In an emergency, Ji Xiangkong suddenly remembered a move he taught Qiu Ying before, the Blazing Staff, which has a stacking effect. Pei Xi and Xia Ling sold their equipment and simultaneously bought Blazing Staffs. Sun Zeyi's blind hook restrained Jeffrey. Pei Xi activated the first Blazing Staff, sacrificing himself to fight for an opportunity for Phoenix. Immediately after, Xia Ling used the second Blazing Staff, directly taking down the low-health Jeffrey.

Finally, Ji Xiangkong also sold all his equipment and unleashed the third Blazing Staff, instantly killing three Tatans players. But then both Ji Xiangkong and Lin Yixuan were taken down, leaving only Sun Zeyi from Phoenix. Now Sun Zeyi had started pushing the Tatans' crystal, and the Tatans were also pushing Phoenix's crystal. The two teams were finally going to compete in speed. The most exciting moment arrived. The entire Phoenix team gathered around Sun Zeyi.

At the moment the Tatans' crystal was destroyed, not only the venue boiled, the commentary desk boiled, but even the audience outside the screen boiled. Phoenix represented all Chinese teams, inherited the spirit of two generations of e-sports players, and won the championship of the 2019 Global Finals. Qiu Ying and Ji Xiangkong also fulfilled their promise, "Accompany you to the summit of the world."

Finally, Ji Xiangkong and Qiu Ying gradually walked towards each other and happily embraced in the center of the stage. Gu Fang hung the two championship rings on the trophy, hoping to remind the younger generation to keep moving forward. That evening, Ji Xiangkong brought Qiu Ying to the top of the tallest building and set off a circle of fireworks there. That was the scene Qiu Ying had most anticipated. Their journey had been very difficult, but all the effort was worth it. Holding hands and walking to the summit of the world, the hardships behind them vanished like smoke.
