Chapter 95 Wei Xiao: Laozi is really a saint! (1/2)
Nobody knew the state of Lu Feng’s shoulder better than Lu Feng himself.
Xiang Liu’s worries were reasonable, but they were meaningless.
In recent years, FTW couldn’t have done without Lu Feng.
Let alone Close toppling down, the impact would be earth-shaking if anyone learned about his shoulder injury.
Not to mention anything else, the capital divestment would be enough for FTW to drown in.
In the past three years, FTW had always done a global round trip in the 5v5 competition. How had they managed to develop to their present scale? Why were their signing fees for the live broadcasting platform so high, and why were they the sponsors’ favorite?
There was only one reason––
Close.
The world’s most valuable player was also the head of FTW.
This was a very strong injection of reassurance for all their partners.

The value of a club depended largely on their results and their players. Both were interdependent and indispensable.
Results needed to be maintained, and the players would move around. These were variables that the capital side had to consider.
Only FTW was different. The player was the person in charge, and this double identity had tied Close and FTW together.
It was both bondage and security.
Close would never leave FTW, which was something that carried great value regardless of the team’s performance.
This was also one of the reasons why FTW was able to thrive over the years.
Fans always liked to say that the great demon king had held up the entire club by himself. This wasn’t actually an exaggeration; it was fact.
Close was too important for FTW, so important that even Lu Feng didn’t dare to act rashly.
The biggest disaster that could befall e-sports players was an occupational disease.

When there was high intensity training coupled with a serious lack of exercise, how could something not go wrong with a body that was made of flesh and blood?
Most clubs had rebab and massage professionals, and after the start of the regular season, the players would do preventive physiotherapy every day.
Even so, there were still so many injuries every year.
E-sports was very draining, and a small mistake would affect the entire game.
Why did injured players start to decline? It wasn’t just because their operations couldn’t keep up with their thoughts, but also because their mentality had collapsed.
Li Heran had fallen from the clouds. Why was it so difficult for him to stand back up again?
It was because he’d exhausted all his confidence and courage.
The injury to his wrist had had a great impact on him, and there had been an even bigger impact on his fans.
Countless people had loved him crazily, and countless people were heartbroken by this.

The howling across the entire internet was heartrending, and these countless words would eventually take on a life of their own, pressing down on the players.
“Don’t blame him, he hurt his wrist.”
“He missed a soldier. That wouldn’t have happened with the former Li Heran.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay, Captain Li, we’ll always love you!”
Good, bad, sympathetic, sarcastic, comforting, abusive…
It was all the same. They all repeated one fact––
Li Heran, you’re ill.
If Lu Feng was on his own, he wouldn’t be afraid of any of these things.
No matter how big the weight was on his shoulders, he could still hold it up.

Unfortunately, there was an entire FTW behind him, an FTW that had managed to stand up again after experiencing a disaster.
It seemed strong, but in fact, it was as fragile as a thin piece of paper.
Once public opinion pressed down on them, it wouldn’t affect just Lu Feng, but the whole FTW.
This was the fundamental reason why Lu Feng couldn’t do anything.
They’d been preparing for three years, waiting for three years, working hard for three years…
Chen Feng, Tang Chen, Xiang Liu, the logistics staff, and the countless fans who loved them. They were all looking forward to the FTW’s triumphant return.
At this kind of time, Lu Feng would never allow anything to happen to Close.
During the winter training camp, Lu Feng hadn’t been able to make appointments with a physiotherapist because of the venue.
After returning home, he would definitely adhere to a strict physiotherapy schedule, and coupled with enough exercise, playing in the 5v5 wasn’t a problem at all.

As for the solo competition…
Lu Feng wanted to hand it over to Wei Xiao.
Wei Xiao liked solo and was also good at solo. If he polished up his skills a bit, he would definitely get good results this year.
As for the doubles…
Wei Xiao and Bai Cai were very suited to play the doubles.
However, all of this couldn’t be said after Wei Xiao asked ‘why?’.
The corners of Wei Xiao’s mouth tightened, his bright black eyes dimming slightly. His voice also grew quiet, “This year, Yuan Ze and Kim Sung-hyun will both sign up. They want to solo with you, but you aren’t going to compete?”
Lu Feng: “…….”
Wei Xiao looked at him, as though wanting to see the real emotions behind his calm expression, “You’ve always been looking forward to it, haven’t you? Wanting to have a real fight with them!”

The old Team of Gods had left behind countless regrets.
Close had stayed in FTW, while the others all went their separate ways.
They couldn’t be teammates because of their lingering guilt and uneasiness, and they weren’t even opponents then.
The Close who’d been left behind, the Close who’d been forgotten, the Close who was eager to be recognized.
His title as the three-year singles champion couldn’t match up to this year’s solo game!
Wei Xiao didn’t believe that Lu Feng didn’t want to compete!
Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He…
Didn’t he want to prove himself to them?!
Close, who’d chosen to stick with it, to stay behind, to guard and protect FTW, didn’t he want to show them his faith and beliefs with his own strength?!

After waiting for three years and finally getting this opportunity that hadn’t been easy to come by, why did he want to give it up?
Wei Xiao’s tight voice trembled slightly, “Captain, I don’t need you to do this for me.”
Lu Feng’s heart trembled, and he felt like he’d been hit by a soft sledgehammer––
It didn’t hurt, it only felt numb.
The tip of Wei Xiao’s nose felt sour, and his eyes were also slightly red, “I don’t want to participate in the singles competition. I just like soloing with you.”
He’d thought back and forth, and could only think of this reason.
There was a quota limit for the singles competition, and only one person from each club could sign up.
If Lu Feng signed up, then Wei Xiao wouldn’t be able to compete.
The captain wanted to give him this chance.

But…
Wei Xiao leaned in close, “I’d rather see you compete. I want to see you win against Yuan Ze, win against Kim Sung-hyun, see you win the championship!”
He’d rather see Lu Feng fulfil his dreams, wanted to see him finally see the rainbow that came after the wind and rain, wanted to see him try his best and leave no regrets!
These unspoken, unfinished words were all transformed into a voice that came from the heart, conveying themselves all the way to the bottom of Lu Feng’s heart.
Lu Feng heard it.
“I…” Lu Feng’s voice was slightly hoarse, and every word seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, “I value the team competition more, and we’ll also meet them in the 5v5 games.”
Wei Xiao picked up his hand and rubbed his own cheek against it, “You’re lying.”
The youth’s soft voice, his cat-like attitude, all broke through Lu Feng’s camouflage.
