Chapter 773  : He Is Soul Fighter (7)

Qiao Lian was already in bed and she looked like she was asleep.

He walked over and lay next to her.

His hair was still wet, but he had no intention of sleeping.

Hence, he sat up leaning against the headboard and picked up his cell phone.

As he stared at the screen on his phone, his mind wandered to the scene at the gathering that afternoon.

Eight years ago, the captain was narcissistic and used to love send his photos on the team’s group chat.

But after eight years, there was no trace left of that young and inexperienced gamer. He had become a mature and composed young man.

Although Shen Liangchuan had not met the rest of the team members, he had a familiar feeling among them and it evoked many fond memories.

Perhaps because of seeing all these people from his youth, his thoughts went back to eight years ago.

He and Soul Fighter met through a random match in a game.

At that time, Soul Fighter was playing against Shen Liangchuan.

The four other team members that the latter had been matched up with were poor players, probably because they were new players.

Every time they got into a group battle, they would charge blindly without a strategy, causing their team to lose every match.

Young and impetuous, Shen Liangchuan took every game seriously.

Angered and frustrated by his teammates, he started to dash madly through the game, slaying all the opponents he saw on the way.

He slayed the first, then the second…

In the end, he saw a message from Soul Fighter:

[(All) Soul Fighter: Feeling sorry for Zi Chuan there, all four of his teammates are pigs!]

At once, Shen Liangchuan felt an indescribable sense of liberation.

He seldom berated anyone in the game.

However, some team members were really hopeless beyond words.

He felt vindicated by Soul Fighter’s words and it felt great.

At that time, Zi Chuan was not well-known.

He won that particular match by a narrow margin.

After the match ended, he saw that there were a few new requests on his friends list. This was usual after every match he played.

Uninterested, he meant to clear the list when he suddenly saw Soul Fighter’s name among it.

In addition to the fact that he had spoken up for Shen Liangchuan, the latter also recalled that Soul Fighter was quite a skillful gamer, so he made an exception and accepted the friend request from this player.

After he had agreed, the player sent him a private message:

[Soul Fighter: One more together?]

Shen Liangchuan did not remember what he had been thinking at that time, but only that he accepted the invitation.

They played one round together and found that they coordinated well, so they started to play a second round, and a third round…

Sometimes, strangely, that is just how friendships blossom between men.

During those years, he was aloof and arrogant and, because of that one remark Soul Fighter had made, they crossed paths and became friends.

He brought Soul Fighter into their competitive team and introduced Soul Fighter to his follower, Xiao Qiao. In the end, even as the rest of the team members came and went, the three of them remained steadfast.

It was as though their fates were intertwined.

Eventually, when he was preparing to establish an official, the first person he thought of was Soul Fighter, and the first person to agree to it was also Soul Fighter.

As this thought came to Shen Liangchuan, he slowly cast his gaze downwards.

Setting up the team had been a complicated matter. He had had to go through many procedures to finally obtain the credentials for the team.

There was the venue rental and the purchasing of computers.

There were so many matters to handle that he got so busy he could hardly breathe.

At the time, it was Soul Fighter who fought alongside him, right up to the moment that he established the official Lot club and called Xiao Qiao to ask her to join him.

But at that time also…

Qiao Lian’s hand had been injured, so she told him over the phone that she would no longer be able to play.

In that moment, Shen Liangchuan felt completely abandoned. Only Soul Fighter remained firmly by his side because of his passion for gaming.
