Chapter 2 Top 10 Masters: Huang Shaotian!
Chapter 2 Top 10 Masters: Huang Shaotian!
Yu Wenzhou simply smiled.
The "Aunt Wang" that Huang Shaotian mentioned was naturally the magician Wang Jiexi.
He gave Wang Jiexi the nickname "Aunt Wang" not as an insult, but because Wang Jiexi was going to great lengths to cultivate his successor, much like a mother hen.
So, the nickname "Aunt Wang" was actually Huang Shaotian praising Wang Jiexi as a good team leader.
Seeing that Yu Wenzhou didn't respond, Huang Shaotian asked, "If you make the list, what reward would you most like to receive?"
This question stumped Yu Wenzhou.
As a professional player, the best rewards are naturally those related to esports.
But what is he lacking in esports?
I guess all I'm lacking is fast reflexes...
As someone with terrible hand skills, what he envied most in his life was Ye Xiu and his group of hand speed madmen.
Yu Wenzhou sighed: "If I could really be rewarded with an ability, it would definitely be to improve my hand speed. I don't need to improve it too much, a normal hand speed of 300 is enough."
"Haha, if I boosted your hand speed to 300+, would anyone else even be able to compete?"
Huang Shaotian also laughed out loud.
Yu Wenzhou is known as the most powerful brain in Glory, with extremely strong calculation and predictive abilities. His only weakness is that his hand speed is too slow.
Yu Wenzhou's maximum hand speed barely reaches the threshold of 200, and under normal circumstances it is only slightly over 100.
Such hand speed is usually not enough to play professionally, but Yu Wenzhou managed to become a Glory All-Star God and the number one Warlock in Glory in China.
If Yu Wenzhou had the average hand speed of a professional player, then his strength would be extremely terrifying.
Yu Wenzhou shook his head slightly. This topic was as absurd as asking how you would spend five million yuan if you won the lottery.
"I definitely can't make it onto the list of the world's top ten masters, only you have a chance to do so."
"It's hard to say. This is a global ranking of honor players. Who knows how good the players from other countries are? If it were a domestic ranking, I would definitely be in the top five."
Huang Shaotian has always been very confident; with his skills, he would not lose to anyone.
However, he was not arrogant. He had several people in the country who, even if he faced them, would not have much of a chance of winning.
"Yes, Han Wenqing is getting old. Apart from Wang Jiexi, Zhou Zekai, and Ye Xiu, who can slightly suppress you, everyone else is weaker than you." Yu Wenzhou smiled slightly. What he admired most about Huang Shaotian was that Huang Shaotian had absolute confidence and a clear understanding of the situation.
His confidence ensured that he would never lose face when facing anyone.
His self-awareness also prevents him from being arrogant or underestimating his opponents.
"The results will be announced in less than an hour. We'll know then whether we make the list or not."
Huang Shaotian, on the contrary, was no longer in a hurry. He crossed his arms, lay leisurely on the seat, and quietly waited for the countdown in the sky to end.
He wanted to see if he, a dignified sword saint, could appear on the list of the top ten masters in the world of Glory.
.........
Team Excellent Era.
Sun Xiang stared intently at the screen, his eyes filled with ambition and arrogance.
"The top ten martial arts masters in the world? Now that I've mastered the Dragon's Turn, I'm sure I'll have a place on that list!"
"Once I obtain the Sky Curtain reward, I will definitely trample that despicable Ye Xiu under my feet and avenge my defeat in this challenge!"
A deep hatred flashed in Sun Xiang's eyes.
In this year's Challenger League, his Excellent Era team lost to Ye Xiu's Happy team.
This failure was hard for him to accept.
Now that Excellent Era is facing disbandment, Tao Xuan is also preparing to sell the team, and he, as the captain of Excellent Era, is on the list of those to be sold.
All of this is thanks to Ye Xiu.
If it weren't for Ye Xiu, Sun Xiang, the Glory Rookie King, wouldn't have become a homeless dog!
......
Misty Rain Team.
Li Hua said excitedly to Chu Yunxiu, "Captain, with your strength, you can definitely be on the list of the world's top ten masters."
"What are you thinking? This is the global top ten Glory players list, not the domestic top ten Glory players list. If it were the domestic top ten Glory players list, I might still have a chance."
Chu Yunxiu smiled and shook her head; she was well aware of her own abilities.
Even in the country, there are many companies with better technology than Honor.
She doesn't have a high win rate against players like Ye Xiu, Han Wenqing, Zhou Zekai, Wang Jiexi, Huang Shaotian, and Sun Xiang.
In addition, there are Yang Cong, Tian Sen, Yu Feng, Tang Hao, Zhao Yang, etc. Facing these top-level players, although she is fairly confident of winning, she is not absolutely certain of victory.
She felt that it was already quite good if she could be among the top ten in the country.
Top ten globally?
What wishful thinking!
It remains to be seen how many of these top experts from China will make the list.
Li Hua echoed this sentiment, saying, "I wonder how many people from our country will make the list; it's truly something to look forward to!"
.......
Team Tyranny.
Han Wenqing stared intently at the Glory screen, looking at the countdown leaderboard, radiating a strong fighting spirit that made his teammates feel a powerful sense of pressure.
Top 10 Global Honor Players List
Being included on this list is an immense honor for any professional player.
Han Wenqing never felt inferior to others, and he would not admit defeat even when facing Ye Xiu.
Given his pride, he naturally wanted to be on that list.
But he knew very well that, given his current condition, he probably had no chance of being selected.
If it were a few years ago, during his peak years, he felt he should have been selected.
Unfortunately, time waits for no one, and at thirty, he was already in the twilight of his professional career.
"Ye Xiu, I wonder if you can make it into the world's top ten list, and where you'd rank among them?"
Han Wenqing's lips curled up almost imperceptibly, as if mocking, yet also as if hoping.
He and Ye Xiu fought for ten years in Glory. Ye Xiu was his lifelong rival in his professional career, as well as the opponent he respected the most.
........
Besides these teams, players from other domestic teams are also discussing the Glory Sky List, speculating about who will be included and what rewards those who make the list will receive.
Some believe that all five titled players should be selected, while others believe that apart from Ye Xiu, Wang Jiexi, and Zhou Zekai, the others probably do not deserve to be selected.
Some people believe that China's e-sports industry lags behind the world's top 10, and that probably no one from China can be selected.
In short, there are all sorts of opinions.
In fact, this topic is being discussed not only domestically, but also internationally by various teams and Glory players.
They are also speculating whether their country's top player will be selected for the world's top ten list.
In particular, their country's strongest players are very confident in being selected as one of the world's top ten, and some even believe that they are the world's number one.
.....
Island country.
A young man with his hair parted in the middle, dressed in a suit and tie, looked at the leaderboard on his computer screen with ambition: "Yosh! The number one player in global Glory belongs to me, Yamamoto Taro!"
His lackey immediately chimed in, "That's for sure! Yamamoto-kun's dual-sword fighting style is unmatched even on a global scale!"
"Haha! Once I take the top spot on the Heavenly Ranking, I will surely lead you all to crush the Glory Alliances of other nations and uphold the invincible prestige of our Yamato people!"
"Hey~! Yamamoto-kun is awesome!"
.........
Cold country.
A young man with short, choppy hair looked up at the sky, his eyes gleaming: "The top ten global masters? Interesting. This time I'll finally get to see the world's top Glory players."
His teammate flattered him, "Sang-hyeok, you are the strongest Glory player in the world! This list was opened just for you. You are undoubtedly the number one player in the world!"
"Don't underestimate anyone. The world is so big, there are bound to be many experts. There's an old saying in China: 'There are heavens beyond heavens, and people beyond people.' We can't be arrogant or complacent." Lee Sang-hyeok said modestly, but the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, carrying a hint of disdain.
His teammates chimed in, "Sang-hyeok is right, but I think that no one in the world can rival you. You are a super demon king born for esports."
"I hope so..."
Lee Sang-hyeok wore a confident smile.
He debuted in the Korean Glory League seven years ago and won a total of five championships, including one two-peat and one three-peat.
Such a record is enough to make him stand out from the crowd.
He didn't believe there was anyone stronger than him in the world.
......
The strongest players from the United States, England, Germany, Russia... are all determined to win a spot on the Glory Top Ten list.
With hundreds of millions of Honor of Kings players around the world watching, time slowly passed, and soon an hour had gone by.
The golden canopy in the world of Glory, the previous few lines of text disappeared, and then a brand new line of golden text appeared.
The list of the top ten global Honor of Kings players is about to be released!
All the Glory players around the world involuntarily held their breath, their eyes fixed on the Sky Ranking, eagerly awaiting the announcement of the top ten players.
Within seconds, a complete line of text finally appeared on the Sky List.
"Here it comes!! Who will make it into the list of the world's top ten masters?!"
Amidst excited cheers, the gold subtitles appeared.
[Top 10 Global Glory Players: Huang Shaotian!]
"???"
Hundreds of millions of Honor of Kings players worldwide are left with a bunch of question marks on their foreheads.
Huang Shaotian?
Who is this person?
Overseas Honor players have never even heard of this name.
It wasn't that they didn't recognize the characters on the screen; the list displayed on the screen was based on the font used by the servers in each region.
The island nation uses its own language, South Korea uses its own language, and the United States uses its own language. Everyone can understand the text on the sky.
Furthermore, what was released was not just a line of text, but also a cold voice emanating from the sky, which everyone could hear clearly.
However, apart from players from the Dragon Kingdom, no one had ever heard of the name Huang Shaotian.
At this moment, only the players of Glory of the Dragon Kingdom let out exclamations and cheers.
Huang Shaotian is among the top ten players in the global Glory rankings!
