Chapter 391 truly is the most hopeful year.

Li Chen rarely streams himself playing PUBG unless he really wants to put pressure on himself.

Sure enough, when he opened the game and entered the PUBG queue, countless viewers had been waiting for a long time in front of the screen.

Seeing a bunch of newbies in the live chat shouting that they wanted to put pressure on him, Li Chen smirked: "Hilarious. You think you can put pressure on God C? Come on, if you dare, I'll be waiting for you at the airport."

Ready, board the plane, parachute!

As the plane passed near the airport, and Li Chen disembarked, the number of people on board, which had originally been over eighty, instantly dropped to zero, and a group of professional skydivers began to sprint to the ground.

Adjusting the camera left and right, Li Chen looked at the impenetrable wall of people surrounding him, and his eyelids twitched slightly.

"No, you guys really don't know what death means. The game's matchmaking system is useless. It seems I have no choice but to come out of retirement."

This was the last thing Li Chen said in this game, because after landing, he was surrounded by a bunch of people.

Sneak into a crowd, pick up a gun, and kill someone?

nonexistent.

This group of guys was from some unknown organization; everyone was wearing identical red uniforms, except for him, who was wearing blue and stood out conspicuously in the crowd.

Despite being relentlessly punched dozens of times, Li Chen never managed to cock the second magazine of bullets before he died.

Ten minutes later, Li Chen parachuted down for the fourth time, and it was the same old scene, the same old way of dying. The viewers really demonstrated to Li Chen with their actions that within five steps, a bolt-action rifle is no match for a fist.

The casual friendly match lasted until 11 p.m. Li Chen switched from League of Legends to PUBG, then to Dou Dizhu, and finally played a ranked game before ending the stream. He played a game of Jayce briefly before finally achieving the glorious goal of ending the stream.

September 8th, the last day of the first round of the group stage of the World Championship. EDG has no matches today, so they can relax at the hotel and watch and learn.

The first game started with WE facing off against Flash Wolves, who had lost two games in a row.

As expected, Flash Wolves lost the match, achieving the feat of the region's number one seed suffering a complete defeat in the first round of the group stage.

Looking at the dejected expressions of the Flash Wolves and then at the Factory Manager's enjoyable comments while eating fruit, Li Chen could only sigh at the irony of fate.

EDG's fate should have been the same as Flash Wolves', with both number one seeds suffering a complete defeat in the first round of the group stage. But unfortunately, he came, so this time only Flash Wolves are left.

There were no major upsets in the following five matches. The Rabbit Team defeated the North American Snake Team after a hard-fought battle lasting nearly fifty minutes.

IMT and GAM were both weak teams, locked in a love-hate relationship, with IMT ultimately emerging victorious.

Longzhu's match against FNC was a complete rout, dominating the game and once again demonstrating LCK's dominance in the World Championship, drawing a lot of attention to EDG.

In the following match between Samsung and Facebook, the dense use of true sight wards made Clearlove frown.

"Samsung must be crazy. They're leading by a total of 2,000 gold, and they must have spent 1,500 on wards alone. Is that even possible?"

Nofe and two analysts were standing in front of a blackboard with a map of the Rift drawn on it, making corrections and studying Samsung's various warding strategies.

However, Samsung didn't seem to care that much about Li Chen. Although they did win the S7 championship, it's hard to say how much luck contributed to that victory.

If Cuvee is a little brave and goes head-to-head with him for three games, taking down a three-star team in two hours shouldn't be a problem.

The factory manager glanced at Li Chen, noticing Li Chen's eyes darting around, and squinted as he asked, "What mischief are you up to now?"

Li Chen said in a serious tone, "I'm wondering if I don't play in the second round, will you show the world who is the world's number one jungler?"

"You little brat!"

In the final game, RNG and G2 faced off, and RNG ultimately won easily against G2.

When the two sides shook hands, the RNG players all smiled happily.

On the commentary stage, Wawa was very happy: "After four days of fierce battles, the three teams in our region have achieved satisfactory results. EDG and RNG both achieved a perfect record in the first round of the group stage, and WE also finished with a score of 2 to 1."

"That's right, I would like to congratulate the three teams again. We have had a great start to this World Championship, and the three teams' chances of advancing are very clear. Perhaps this is our most promising year."

I remember he sounded very confident, and from his professional perspective, EDG and RNG were indeed very strong this year.

Su Xiaoyan smiled slightly and began to demonstrate her skills: "As a player who has never lost since his debut, we have reason to believe that C-God can lead EDG and the hopes of all LPL fans to the end."

[Is this the most promising year? That's really interesting.]

I don't know why, but I feel like I can't avoid falling into the trap of believing in C's predictions.

[I've seen this episode. The third seed reached the quarterfinals, the second seed reached the semifinals, and the first seed won the championship.]

Adding "ne" to the end of a sentence makes it sound cute!

This is Wuhan, not Chengdu, thank you!

With the conclusion of the first round of the group stage of the World Championship, the tournament has entered a short period of adjustment.

In the first round of the group stage, the clashes between different regions gradually brought some strong or unique mechanisms into the public eye.

Everyone is racing against time to learn from experience and update their tactical reserves for the second round of group matches.

Despite this, Li Chen insisted on livestreaming for more than twelve hours every day, and this high-intensity livestreaming led to some rumors circulating online.

#During the World Championship, a player streamed without playing practice matches.#

#Arrogance will ultimately ruin even the best players.#

#Is it confidence or arrogance? Get closer to esports players!#

Li Chen and EDG ignored the rumors and continued training steadily according to their planned schedule.

Interestingly, during this period, Longzhu arranged practice matches with EDG more than once.

In the first game EDG sent A Guang to play, he played a total of four games, and the final result was one win and three losses.

It's worth mentioning that in these matches, regardless of winning or losing, EDG never experienced a collapse in the early game. Even when they were at a slight disadvantage, the game was still able to continue normally.

What really gives EDG a headache is Longzhu's performance in mid-to-late game split pushing and team fights.

However, perhaps feeling that the scrim was not representative since Li Chen did not play, Longzhu approached EDG again to arrange a scrim the day before the start of the second round of the group stage, hoping that Li Chen could play.

After a brief consideration, Li Chen decided to grant Dragon Ball's request.

During the practice match, Abu watched Li Chen prepare his peripherals and asked, "Dragon Ball is trying to test our strength, Chen, what do you think? Are we going to play seriously or just mess around?"

Li Chen smiled slightly, revealing a simple smile: "Manager, how can you say that? We are a legitimate team, and we will definitely play seriously when we arrange a practice match. Just watch how I play Khan."
