Ling Meng, who was unknowingly promoted to a popular anchor of Legend of the Galaxy, never expected that she would also receive an invitation letter for the opening ceremony of the Galaxy Professional Tournament.In order to enhance the entertainment of this competition, the organizer planned to hold an exhibition match between professional players and game anchors on the day of the opening ceremony. Both Shan Zhu and Ling Meng were invited.

It was the first time for Ling Meng to appear in this kind of large-scale competition, and it was also the first time for him to face so many live audiences. His smile was stiffened by the frequent flashing lights.

"What should I do if I'm a little nervous?" He whispered to Shan Zhu.

"Think about the hundreds of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room and you can still talk and laugh happily, but the few thousand people on the scene are nothing."

Ling Meng, who was comforted by Shan Zhu, felt a little relieved. Suddenly, there was a huge commotion in the venue, and the cameras that were originally aimed at them all turned to another direction.Under the spotlight, five young men in team uniforms entered the venue vigorously.

"Look!" Ling Meng tugged at Shan Zhu's sleeve excitedly, "It's Fruit!"

Since they knew early on that their opponent today was last season's champion Fruit, Ling Meng went online to study the opponent's information, and knew that the stern-faced boy walking in the front was the legendary underage captain Xiang Jiao.Even from such a long distance, Ling Meng could feel that his whole body exuded a fierce aura that was different from ordinary people.

Taking advantage of the absence of the camera, Ling Meng and Shan Zhu secretly chewed their tongues.

"I recently made up a lot of FRUIT game videos. They are really good, especially the captain Banana. It was pure luck that we won them last time."

"It may not be a fluke," Shan Zhu reminded him, "Don't forget that we still have the mysterious Guava."

"That's right, Guava is also a professional player. I don't know if anyone is here today." Ling Meng looked around, looking for anyone who looked like Guava.

Ling Meng didn't find Guava, but his eyes met Xiang Jiao.With his hands behind his back, Xiang Jiao looked like a battle-tested veteran. He didn't pay attention to the scene of thousands of people at all, and his sharp gaze fell directly on Ling Meng.

Ling Meng silently panned a few centimeters to the left, and then silently panned a few centimeters to the right, to confirm that it was not his illusion that Xiang Jiao's gaze was locked on.

The host started to introduce the players from both sides, Xiang Jiao was still staring at him intently, Ling Meng was stared like a thorn in his back, not knowing when he had offended this talented captain.Could it be that when the other party was growing up, unfortunately, he received hospice care from Ning's father?

Thinking about the opponent's strength, and thinking about himself, Ling Meng felt that even if the two of them really met in the vast galaxy, the possibility of him winning is very small.

The first person introduced by the host was Banana, captain of the FRUIT team. Xiang Jiao's expressionless face appeared on the big screen, and he nodded his chin slightly when his name was called.

However, it was just such an action that drew cheers that almost toppled the roof. Ling Meng knew that Xiang Jiao's popularity was very high, but he didn't expect it to be so high.As far as the eye can see, the audience seats are full of light boards with Banana's name written on them, and more than half of the audience holding the boards are girls.

Next, we will introduce the other four members of the FRUIT team. Although the cheers are not small, they are obviously much weaker than before.Ling Meng met Cherry, Litchi, Pineapple who had fought against them in turn, and Avocado who hadn't appeared last time. On the surface, they looked like nerds like Ling Meng, but each of them had won the championship trophy more than once.

After introducing the professional team, the host turned around and introduced the network anchor team on the other side.

"First of all, we would like to welcome Mangosteen, who is known as the number one anchor of the Star River by the majority of players-Mangosteen!"

When Shan Zhu's face, which was not handsome and free of money, was magnified several times through the camera, Ling Meng was almost deafened by the screams of the girls present.

The host also teased him for this: "Mangshen, I heard that out of ten female gamers in Xinghe, eleven are fans of your girlfriend, and the other one doesn't play games at all. Is this true?"

Shan Zhu replied in a very official tone: "It will be my honor if some girls who don't usually play games can become interested in Xinghe through my live broadcast."

Ling Meng complained in her heart: Where is the interest in the game, it is clearly the interest in you.

"Although you are not a professional player, it is recognized that you have the strength of a professional player. Would you consider taking the path of a professional player?"

"My age can no longer support my high-intensity training for more than ten hours a day. Every professional player is very hard-working. I admire them very much. If I have the opportunity, I hope to participate in professional games in other ways and express myself. part of the strength."

"Such as professional commentary?"

"You can consider trying."

"Then I think there will be no need to worry about selling tickets at the game with you participating in the commentary." The host joked, and Shan Zhu smiled, which attracted screams again.

"The next one is also very familiar to us." The host's professionalism made him hold back his laughter. "His long-term perseverance is the reason why the majority of players turned from black to fan. He is based on a What should we call the new anchor who has become famous all over the galaxy in a special way? Lemon or... Lemon's father?"

"Papa Lemon! Papa Lemon!" The fans in the audience shouted loudly while holding Lemon's light board, and the rhythm was amazingly unified.

Ling Meng was very embarrassed by the yelling, and waved her hand shyly.

"Hi everyone, I'm Lemon."

"Usually, shouldn't you say 'Dad is here'?" The host didn't intend to let him go.

Accompanied by the booing of the audience, Ling Meng blushed and said, "Thanks to the players of this game for their tolerance in not killing me for so long, it's completely unexpected that I can stand here alive today..."

"Hahahaha..." The audience burst into laughter.

"Honestly when you were left in hospice after your first win, did you ever imagine that day would come?"

"I never thought about it at all." Ling Meng said honestly, "It was just for fun at the time, and there was no malice."

"Have you encountered criticism for this?"

"Too much. At first everyone scolded me, but I thought, I'll do nothing if you scold me. You can't hit me anyway..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Now let you start all over again, will you still insist on being Ning's father?"

"Now? It's definitely not going to happen now. There are so many people at the scene, they can call me every minute..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"When you introduced Mangshen just now, you covered your ears. Can you ask me curiously, what do you think of his girlfriend fans?"

The host of feelings is also a gossip party. Ling Meng complained in his heart while answering: "What do you think? Look at it with envious eyes? I think normal boys will envy boys with more female fans."

"We boys are envious of boys with more female fans."

Ling Meng: ...

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Secretly interview Mangshen, would Papa Ning mind the fact that your girlfriend has a lot of fans?"

Shan Zhu is very calm: "Having a lot of girlfriend fans doesn't mean having a lot of girlfriends, otherwise wouldn't it mean that people with a lot of mother fans are mothers all over the world?"

Ling Meng: ...

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The time for interviewing Ling Meng has expired, so the host will close it as soon as it is ready.

"Finally, is there anything else Papa Ning wants to say to the audience?"

"I want to say that the special method mentioned by the host just now is not a positive example. Please don't follow suit. I hope everyone can play in a civilized way. Thank you." Ling Meng bowed and won thunderous applause .

After introducing the players from both sides, the players from both sides shook hands with each other. When Xiang Jiao walked up to Ling Meng, Ling Meng took the initiative to extend his hand, but Xiang Jiao didn't immediately shake hands back.

Ling Meng's hands were raised in the air and he was a little embarrassed. Now he needs to rethink the possibility of whether he has cared for the other party in the end of life.

"Uh……"

When Ling Meng was struggling, Xiang Jiao shook his hand and then let go. The whole process took only two seconds.After he left, Ling Meng hid her hands behind her back and waved her hands where the camera couldn't capture them—it was just a handshake, so why use so much force?

The contestants from both sides were seated. The peripherals on Ling Meng's side were uniformly equipped by the organizer, while all FRUIT members brought their own keyboards and mice, which looked very professional.

"Looking so envious." While waiting for the other side to debug, Ling Meng expressed his longing for the professionalism of professional players.

"It's right that we don't bring our own peripherals," said Shan Zhu.

"why?"

"It's impossible for us to beat a professional team. This is an exhibition game mainly for entertainment. If we bring special equipment for this, it will seem too much work."

Ling Meng was right when she thought about it, if she was serious and lost badly, it would be a bit embarrassing.

"Don't worry, the opponent will take care of themselves. We just need to play out the fun of this game."

The waiting process was quite boring, Ling Meng took out her mobile phone to check Xiang Jiao's Baidu Encyclopedia.

"Do you know? The captain of FRUIT has been staring at me just now, and his expression is particularly gloomy, as if I have offended him at some point."

"It's hard to say, after all, you have offended too many people in the game."

Ling Meng didn't believe it: "Do you think I will take care of him at the end of life? It's fine if he doesn't take care of me at the end of life."

"Look," he lowered his head and repeated Xiang Jiao's career history, "Banana started playing professional games in the e-sports circle at the age of 15, and won the world championship at the age of 16. World champion, what is that concept? In just one year."

"Then why didn't he continue playing the previous game?"

"It's written here that because the operator didn't expand the domestic market well, that game was relatively unpopular in China, so the team collectively jumped to Legend of the Galaxy, and won the domestic championship within a year. Banana contributed a lot."

"It is said that Xinghe will enter the international market soon, and it is right for them to choose another job."

"Also, someone has counted all the bonuses Banana has won in all the big and small competitions since her debut. The total amount is..."

Ling Meng counted one by one, and when she reached the end, she thought she had made a mistake, so she went back and counted again.

"...There are so many 4000 million?!" Ling Meng exclaimed in disbelief.

"It's US dollars." Shan Zhu reminded him.

Ling Meng opened his mouth wide enough to fit a lemon: "A minor with billions of dollars in assets?"

"It's far more than that. 17 years old is the golden age of an e-sports player. Even if he retires at 25, there will still be a bunch of contracts with tens of millions of annual salaries on live broadcasting platforms rushing for him to sign."

Ling Meng sighed from the bottom of her heart: "The 17-year-old in other people's family, why is there such a big gap?"

"But there are very few people with his talent. It is very difficult for the entire e-sports circle to find a second one, just like you."

"Like me?" Ling Meng pointed to her nose.

"As you said just now, since you became famous, there have been many copycats. After all, there is no technical content in calling yourself a father, and everyone can imitate it."

Ling Meng said angrily, "But I'm the first to do that, and it's important for me to persevere!"

"That's right, just because you are the pioneer and they are copycats, what they get will always be ridicule and contempt. No one will become popular in the same way. You are the same as Xiang Jiao in this regard, Your success cannot be replicated."

Ling Meng was praised, so she lowered her head in embarrassment and pretended to look at her phone. The more she looked at it, the more familiar a certain number became.

"Eh? Does Xiangjiao's birthday look familiar to you? Isn't it today?"

"Looks like it really is."

Ling Meng suddenly realized: "It turns out that he is full today, and the captain of FRUIT has come of age."
