League: I really didn't tank!

020 Trial Training Invitation

While all the LPL teams were keeping an eye on Chen Dongqing, Chen Dongqing himself was also keeping an eye on the transfer window while grinding for points, thinking about which teams he could join.

With the transfer window nearing its end, many teams are no longer hiding their roster changes and have released information about their new players.

On the LGD side, the newly crowned FMVP, Marin, has officially announced his joining the team as a foreign player.

Yes, that makes sense; I expected it.

On the RNG side, starting jungler Mlxg announced his departure from the team, while S4 champion top laner Looper and former QG jungler Swift joined.

kindness?

Something is wrong!

Why did Xiangguo leave?

Furthermore, why did Swift go to RNG?

Chen Dongqing is also very familiar with the QG team. After all, in S6, due to the discord between jungler Swift and mid laner Doinb, there was a scandal that resulted in a one-minute best-of-five series.

If Chen Dongqing remembers correctly, Swift was the one who won in the conflict and stayed in the team until the end of S7.

Doinb, whose internal power struggle failed due to bigger problems, was demoted to LSPL by his team, but then led the team back to win. His professional career can be described as full of ups and downs.

But here, Swift left after Season 5, while Doinb stayed.

Chen Dongqing rubbed his chin.

Is this also a butterfly effect caused by my own time travel?

So what's QG's roster now? Will Uzi join them?

But just then, a phone call came in, and Chen Dongqing answered it.

"Hello, I'm Abu, the coach of EDG..."

Hearing the other party's introduction, Chen Dongqing was a little surprised. EDG had even approached him?

But I'm not going to EDG, that team is notorious for being a graveyard for top laners...

"We've contacted you to invite you to be the starting top laner for our EDG academy team..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Dongqing's face darkened even more.

I'm not even interested in the first team, why would I go to the second team?

After thinking for a moment, he simply said, "Thank you for the invitation, but I still want to play in the LPL."

After declining EDG's invitation, Chen Dongqing's phone rang again before he could even put it down.

It was still an unfamiliar number from Shanghai.

Calls kept coming in, and Chen Dongqing knew that the influence of the first King of Glory player in Season 6 was starting to take effect. He answered the phone:

"Hello, I'm Li Linke, the manager of QG. You can call me Linko..."

Immediately following was a long self-introduction from the other party, followed by a formal invitation to Chen Dongqing to try out for the position.

Chen Dongqing frowned slightly as he listened to the other person's words. He waited until the other person finished speaking before asking, "Excuse me, may I ask about your roster for the new season?"

With Swift leaving the team, he really doesn't understand what's going on with QG now.

"Oh, of course, that's what I was about to say."

Linko replied, "Currently, we've only finalized two lineups: Doinb in the mid lane and Uzi, who just joined us in the bot lane."

"The remaining three positions are still under negotiation and we are preparing for tryouts. The top laner we are currently planning to try out for is you, the jungler we are trying out for is the one you duo queue with, mlxg, and as for the support, it is a high-elo solo queue player we found. You will need to come to the base to find out the details."

"While our roster on paper may not be strong, we have the legendary coach Park Un-yong at the helm, and we're sure to be a strong team in S6. How about it, interested?"

Hearing this, Chen Dongqing didn't make a sound, but his mouth was practically crooked from laughing.

They're not strong on paper, are they?

Doinb and Xiangguo, if we look at them in today's era, they are indeed not very strong, after all, neither of them has reached their peak yet.

But Chen Dongqing, a time traveler, knew that both of them were world-class athletes at their peak!

And there's also Uzbekistan.

With the addition of himself, a transmigrator with cheat codes, wouldn't he be invincible?

Chen Dongqing first suppressed his excitement, then said, "No problem, when is the trial?"

The other party replied, "The other two candidates are in Shanghai. If you are also in Shanghai, the trial can start the day after tomorrow."

"No problem." Chen Dongqing nodded. "I'm local."

"Okay, I will send you the time and location via SMS right away. Please check your inbox."

"OK, thanks."

After that, the communication between the two sides ended briefly. Chen Dongqing stared blankly at the text message sent to his phone screen.

This team has the potential to win a championship.

Why would it willingly offer itself to my lips...?

Is this the butterfly effect caused by my own time travel?

Because he reached the Challenger rank with his duo queue partner, Xiangguo chose to terminate his contract with RNG. Without a jungler, RNG had no choice but to choose Swift, the best free agent jungler on the market.

And it was precisely because of this duo queue that Chen Dongqing and Xiangguo were both spotted by QG?

That makes sense.

Following that, several teams extended tryout invitations to him, such as VG and IG.

Chen Dongqing accepted all the invitations, then picked up his phone and left the room. It was Saturday, and his parents were home; he needed to show them the good news first.

Upon seeing the address in the text message, the parents immediately took out their phones to check it online to prevent their son from being scammed, leaving Chen Dongqing feeling helpless.

After confirming that the invited teams were all legitimate esports clubs, Chen Dongqing's parents were relieved. They then gave him some more instructions, such as being careful while he was away.

The seventeen-year-old boy was heading towards his future on his own, which naturally caused his parents a great deal of worry.

Chen Dongqing wasn't bothered at all; he just nodded happily, already fantasizing about his future career.

...

The day after tomorrow, December 9th.

In front of the QG base gate, two young men were standing there with backpacks on their backs, but judging from their expressions, they seemed a little uneasy.

"Hey, what does your tryout have to do with me? Why did you bring me here?"

One of the boys, with thick eyebrows and a slightly chubby build, couldn't help but say, "They want you, not me."

As he spoke, the chubby boy twitched his eyebrows, looking incredibly simple-minded.

Beside him, another boy, also a little chubby, but with a hint of handsome features, said, "I've talked to them, and they're willing to give you a trial opportunity. If I get to eat meat, I'll definitely share some soup with you."

"How am I supposed to get any soup? They've all signed with Uzi, how am I supposed to compare to Uzi?" The chubby guy with thick eyebrows complained. "I'm probably just going through the motions."

The handsome young man spoke with unwavering conviction: "You can't be Uzi's substitute? If that's not working out, go to the LSPL's second team. Their second team is still better than our GreedySa team, okay? We're a City Heroes Championship team, not even a professional team!"

The chubby boy pondered for a long time after hearing this before finally saying, "...You're right."

These two are the bottom lane duo of the Greedy Sa team, Lin Weixiang and Liu Qingsong.

Actually, both of them had wanted to leave their original teams for a long time.

They are a top-ranked team in duo queue for many years, and it must be quite frustrating for them to be playing for a third-tier team all the time.

The main reason they stayed was that they felt somewhat guilty for letting Dong Xiaosa down.

However, the Greedy Sa team has been embroiled in many controversies recently. The top laner plays PUBG every day, and the mid laner takes the rest of the team to get massages every day, showing no signs of improvement.

Seeing this situation, team owner Dong Xiaosa simply decided to give his bottom lane duo a free rein, letting them find teams on their own. That's why the two came to QG for a tryout.

"Alright, time's almost up, let's go in," Liu Qingsong said. "Just perform well later, your skills are definitely not a problem."

"Alright then." Lin Weixiang scratched his head, took a deep breath, and seemed a little nervous.

But just as the two took a step, a taxi stopped beside them, and a tall, handsome man of 183 cm got out of the car.

What's even stranger is that the handsome guy froze on the spot after seeing the two of them.
