Chapter 201
‘Their grand prize is very attractive! Major teams have been recruiting members these days and all highly-skilled gamers have joined. So, how can you miss this?’
Sophia became tempted. Won’t it be great to join? There’s only one chance every year! Thus, she logged into her main account and went to the major teams’ selective trials.
Since the Esports World Championship was approaching, all major teams were now recruiting skilled gamers and each team would have eight members. There would be rounds of matches during the world championship.
Firstly, gamers from the same server would compete against each other in order to become one of the top teams. Then, gamers from all servers in Cethos would have a match to pick out the best team, and the winning team would join the Aseanos region elimination match. Lastly, the best team would have the last round of matches with gamers from other countries.
In the Bayside server, every major team had held tournaments to recruit skilled gamers so that they could join the preliminary round. For some famous teams, there were even dozens of interested gamers lining up to join. Hence, qualification trials were held to choose the best gamers.
At this moment, Sirius and Call Me Taylor were watching a few teams’ qualification trials. Undoubtedly, the most crowded arenas were the famous teams’ qualifications trials, for instance, Snow Fox’s team. Rumors had it that Snow Fox was in the army last year, so he missed the previous Esports World Championship. Hence, he participated this year and there were already six people in his team. All of them were listed on the server’s PvP ranking and they were famous gamers in real life too. Hence, they had a high chance winning and the remaining two places were deadly attractive to the other gamers.
Call Me Taylor dragged Sirius233 along to watch one of the trials. ‘Look at how fun this is, Hubby! Go and have a try too! You definitely have the qualifications to join Snow Fox’s team.’
Sophia became hesitant. It’s Stanley’s team… If she were joining the team, she would need to meet them in real life during the matches. Once Stanley knew that she was Sirius, he would know all her doings in the game. What if he told Michael about this?
‘Nah, it’s okay. I wish to keep a low profile.’ Sophia declined after considering for a while. Although she really wished to join the championship and was excited upon thinking about playing with other skilled gamers, she still thought that keeping her identity a secret was more important.
Call Me Taylor seemed to feel upset. ‘Hubby, can you just listen to me for one time? I’d really like to see you joining the championship, Hubby!” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
At the same time, Sophia thought that she would appear awesome once she managed to join Snow Fox’s team. Other than that psycho, Scary Phoenix, she believed that she could defeat all the other gamers! After a while, Sophia finally said, ‘Okay.’ She agreed in the end, signing up for the Snow Fox’s team qualification trial.
Meanwhile, Stanley was busy with the Esports World Championship. As his aim was obviously to become the world champion, the gamers that he was looking for were outstanding and highly-skilled ones. After several days of choosing, he managed to find six gamers and he still lacked two. He could hardly find any suitable gamer anymore!
As there were more than 100 players signing up for his team, he felt dizzy by just looking at their biographies one by one. Firstly, he would reject those gamers with bad PvP rankings and bad equipment. If he found some gamers interesting, he would ask them to battle with his team members. Once the gamers could win two of his team members, they could join the team.
Although Harry had been wanting to join Stanley’s team, his skills were bad, and he had even been eliminated by others several times. Hence, how could Stanley accept him even though he was Harry’s
fan? If his uncle were joining instead, he would probably accept him. However, he could not meet Michael anywhere recently. Since Michael had been ignoring his calls and messages, he certainly would not participate in such a boring esports championship as well.
Although Sophia had been playing well, her new account was not really suitable for joining the Esports World Championship. Stanley was becoming desperate because the remaining skilled gamers had been recruited by other teams. Even though he was only left with two empty spots, he still could not find any suitable gamers after so many days.
All of a sudden, he was surprised to find an ID among the participants. Sirius233 actually signed up! Isn’t this rascal Uncle Michael’s bottom? How dare he still sign up? Where has he found the courage to do so?
Since participants needed to show up during the championship, Sirius would undoubtedly attract the attention of all the people who he had offended to the arena once he appeared! Nevertheless, regardless of his bad reputation and misdoings, Sirius was really a skilled gamer with good equipment. Previously, Sirius and Stanley’s match had ended in a draw because Scary Phoenix had stopped them in the end. Otherwise, Stanley was not sure whether he could defeat Sirius or not. Currently, it seemed to be a good choice to add Sirius to his team.
Stanley clicked the accept button and Sirius233 appeared on his team’s arena. The name of Stanley’s team was Dragon Fox. This was because Snow Fox was the leader, whereas the co-leader’s ID was Dragon Belle Warrior. Although it was a female account, she was rather aggressive. Stanley then sent Dragon Belle Warrior to fight against Sirius233.
The audience was agitated. ‘Wow! Sirius showed up!’
‘How dare this jerk show up again?’
‘Isn’t he scared that his master, Scary Phoenix, would teach him a lesson if he lost?’
‘Haha, his dom top’s gonna screw him hard.’
Sitting before the screen, Sophia felt offended.
F*ck it! Sirius’s ‘dom top’, Scary Phoenix, had been offline for over a month. Since he was well known for appearing suddenly after prolonged absences, he probably would not show up during this period of time too.
Among the mocking audiences, Call Me Taylor was sending hearts to Sirius. For the sake of Taylor, Sophia needed to win this match!
It was a heated match between Sirius and Dragon Belle Warrior. Although Dragon Belle Warrior seemed to be a weak female character, she was a formidable opponent and was putting Sirius at a disadvantage. However, Sirius did not get flustered and started fighting back soon. After a while of fighting, both of them had gained advantages over the other from time to time, but no one emerged as the winner even after ten minutes had gone by.
Snow Fox showed up and stopped the duo. “Okay, you all can stop fighting.”
The duo kept their weapons and left the arena. Snow Fox then added Sirius to a private chat room. ‘From today onward, you’ll be my team member. So, let bygones be bygones.’
Sirius replied, ‘During the championship, I won’t show up physically. I will only play remotely.’
Snow Fox also knew that Sirius would be beaten to death upon showing up in real life. Hence, he replied, ‘No problem.’
Then, the system showed that Sirius had officially joined Dragon Fox. The audience became more hyped up than before. ‘What the hell? This rascal really joined the team! Although I’m not really interested in this championship in the first place, I must go there in person now to meet that rascal!’
‘Sirius just eliminated my team a few days ago. Just wait for it, Sirius! I’ll definitely go to the championship and break your legs!’
However, Sophia felt nothing upon reading the insults and negative comments. Anyway, I’m not going to appear at the venue. Just come here to where I am and beat me up if you have the capability!
