VIT has yet to release the list of players, causing even insiders to post gossip.

The deadline for registration has passed, and the VIT website has already posted photos for all registered players except for the mid lane position, which still shows a black silhouette.

A well-known commentator in the industry is live streaming with the title “Let’s gossip a bit.”

“The news about Yin’s team’s mid laner, according to himself, has already been found, but none of the teams I know have heard of him. He might be a new talent from the youth training program.”

“I tend to believe he’s a new talent that was discovered somewhere. Watching his gameplay in the live stream, his style is unique and sharp.”

“There’s also a good chance that he came over from the NA server with Yin’s team.”

Netizens are also discussing it.

“Yin has really kept this player a secret. There’s no trace of him even in their duo queue games.”

“And Yin even put him in the support role! In all these years, when have you ever seen Yin play support? He doesn’t even stream his climb to higher ranks.”

The internet is also buzzing about the identity of Rong Yi, but VIT has tightly guarded that information.

As for Rong Yi himself, only Lin Yi is in the know, as they have a long-standing friendship and Lin naturally keeps his mouth shut.

After practicing on his own for the past few days, Rong Yi has now joined the team’s coordination.

Even after disbanding, he continued to practice on his own, from nine in the morning until nine at night, practicing last-hitting and creep-jungling for extended periods.

His position was fixed in the training room, with his back to everyone, next to the window.

Occasionally passing by the door, you could always see his thin, bare shoulders, wearing a white T-shirt and big shorts, his beautiful, straight legs casually crossed.

On the ninth day, Rong Yi set his alarm and went to ask Xiao Yin for leave at five in the afternoon.

He didn’t give a reason.

Xiao Yin didn’t say anything, nodded in agreement, and then said to Wu Dao Gu on the side: “Today you take Ci She and Hui Mao to replay, and I’ll come back tonight.”

Wu Dao Gu asked him, “What are you doing?”

Xiao Yin had no expression on his face. “I have something to do.”

Today was the first match of the RS World Championships group stage, and after the qualifying rounds, they could enter the world semi-finals. It was a single-elimination format, and one match determined the outcome.

Usually, they had a mandatory task of reviewing matches and analyzing them, but three of the team members were overseas players, and their results in the NA server had always been better than in the domestic server, so they didn’t pay much attention to domestic competitions.

“Are you going to watch the game?”

Xiao Yin closed his laptop, his cold, pale fingers lightly pressing on the screen, his dark eyes deep and heavy.

He didn’t communicate with Rong Yi, but he knew exactly what he was thinking.

Rong Yi nodded.

All three people were in the meeting room now, so if they wanted to watch, they had to find another place. Rong Yi looked upstairs and Xiao Yin’s gaze followed his: “My room?”

There was no special expression on Xiao Yin’s face, and he picked up his equipment and headed upstairs. Rong Yi followed him.

Xiao Yin’s room was opposite his, and although he passed by it every day, he had never been inside.

Xiao Yin’s room was symmetrical to his own, immaculate and decorated in shades of gray, with a minimalist style that felt like a showroom.

There was a large projection screen on one side of the room, and a small sofa across from it.

Rong Yi sat in a convenient position and heard Xiao Yin ask him shortly, “What do you want to drink?”

“Anything,” Rong Yi replied.

Xiao Yin poured him a glass of sweet milk.

There were five minutes left until the match started, and the two of them sat quietly watching.

The room was pitch black.

On the live streaming platform website, various commentators have already been hyping up for a long time. Tonight is bound to be another sleepless night.

The last time a team from the Chinese region won the world championship was five years ago, with the team led by Rong Yi. Five years later, after numerous failed attempts, they couldn’t even make it out of the group stage, and the enthusiasm of the audience and players was gradually worn down.

The two commentators on the league’s official live channel have a very good relationship with RS. Before the start of the game, they have already predicted a 3:0 victory for RS.

RS’s opponent is another veteran team from the Asian server, and they are not weak.

The room was dark, and the projection light illuminated the outlines of the people.

Holding a pad and pen, with a cold expression on his eyebrows and eyelashes, it was impossible to conceal his coaching habits.

When he saw the selection of champions during the BP phase, his brows furrowed.

Xiao Yin had been silent all along, sitting just three or five inches away from him without making a sound.

The commentator’s analysis continued.

“It is clear that RS is making a great effort to abandon their previous playstyle, and the fact that they dare to try a new playstyle shows that they have confidence. However, Easy leaving the team is a major change, and whether they can adjust in such a short time after winning the domestic championship is still a big question. In any case, this will be a completely new attempt.”



The barrage was on, Rong Yi explained CUE a few times.

RS got off to a good start, with a fast-paced game that was all Rong Yi’s rhythm.

“The commander who was holding us back is finally gone, and the team’s state has improved significantly.”

“To be honest, without the assistant blindly commanding, it’s much more pleasant to watch, and everyone’s state is also very good.”



With a very light sound, the barrage disappeared, and Rong Yi looked up in surprise to see that Xiao Yin had closed the barrage.

“We’re going to lose.”

Rong Yi said softly.

RS won the first small team fight of the game, taking three kills, and then the opponent began to avoid fighting, playing it safe and waiting until later in the game to invade the jungle. RS gradually fell into decline, and was eventually pushed back to their base by the opponent.

In the BO3 game, the first round was defeated, but nobody noticed anything unusual. Fans were enthusiastic and donated generously, and the live broadcast room had over a billion views.

In the second game, RS failed to scout the opponent’s vision, and their bottom lane was immediately attacked by five players, causing their C-position player to disappear out of nowhere. Although RS tried their best in the middle game, they still couldn’t make a comeback and lost the game.

They were directly eliminated in the preliminary round, and the Chinese region missed the Spring World Championship this year.

After the game ended, the failure page of RS popped up and froze on the screen for a long time. The five young men in the camera looked very gloomy, and the audience booed.

In their first game after kicking out Coach Rong Yi, RS lost.
