Chapter 507: Next time, I'm wearing height‑increasing shoes!

The barrage in all the live streams had become so thick that the match picture could no longer be seen clearly.

【Congratulations VG!!!】

【The new king has ascended the throne!!!】

【VG is awesome!!!】

【Everyone played so well!!!】

【Today VG is truly so good that even gods and ghosts are putting on a show, only EDG is getting beaten……】

【55 open: not worth the ticket price】

【VG's strength makes them a bit overqualified for the LPL; looking forward to MSI!】

【Six months ago: not familiar with the LPL. Six months later: I'll crush you, what's it to you?】

【Holy crap, someone actually watched Jiao Shen's match in Europe from last year?】

【Jiao Shen became famous even before debuting; how could nobody have watched him?】

【I also remember, someone said G2 belongs to the LPL, and Jiao Shen just replied, 'Not familiar……'

【Xiao Duan cried】

【VG's old fans were moved to tears; Xiao Duan, this kid, had endured so long in VG, and finally awaited his destined partner!】

On stage, Gangzi rushed over first, tightly hugging Liang Yan's shoulder from the side, his eye sockets red, shouting wildly in Liang Yan's ear as if crazy:

"We won! Liang Yan! We are champions!"

"Mmm..."

Xiao Duan also rushed over, hugging Liang Yan's other side:

"Awesome! I, old man, am the champion support hahaha!"

Easyhoon, however, remained as steady as ever, but his face likewise couldn't hide the joy of victory; having come to his second year in the LPL, after experiencing the low point of being crushed despite a dream lineup, he once thought he would decline, but unexpectedly, fortunes turned, and today he actually will lift the cup!

On the other side, department manager Gao Jun and the others in the lounge also rushed onto the stage; a few people hugged Fu Lan Duo to celebrate for a while, and finally they all gathered around Liang Yan, each with a burning gaze, looking ill-intentioned.

Liang Yan met everyone's gaze, feeling a bit uneasy:

"What the hell? What do you want to do?!"

Gao Jun's forehead was beading with sweat, his crisp suit a little wrinkled, yet he couldn't hide his radiant vigor; smiling, he looked at Liang Yan and said:

"Everyone is happy; let's be willful just once today."

Having said that, he gave everyone a glance without further ado.

It must have been planned beforehand in secret, keeping Liang Yan in the dark; see, the people surrounding him front and back suddenly moved in unison—some reached for his armpits, some were in charge of lifting his feet, some his thighs, some his waist—

In Liang Yan's frightened cry, the big guys all shouted 'Heave-ho!' and exerted force together:

"Take off!!"

Amid laughter, Liang Yan was tossed high into the sky.

This scene was broadcast on the venue's big screen; Ding Jun, who was in the crowd excitedly celebrating, suddenly froze, then his heart tightened:

"Watch out, damn it!"

"If I fall, even if I can afford to pay, Lu Wenjun will have my skin!"

"Even Xiao Gao, what kind of manager is he, not stopping it at all!"

……

EDG's team flag fell, and EDG's players had already left the stage.

At this moment, the flag still fluttering beneath the dome of the Nanjing Aoti Zhongxin sports arena was the last one left.

The farce on stage had come to an end.

Amid the rhythm of over ten thousand spectators shouting in unison, "VG! VG!", the five players walked side by side toward the Silver Dragon Cup symbolizing honor at the stage center.

Everyone from VG gently placed their hands on the trophy; the solid, cool feel of the hard metal gave everyone a sense of reassurance in their hearts.

But for Liang Yan, who had already lifted the cup twice, this moment brought a different feeling; in terms of emotional excitement, it was indeed not as great as his first cup lift on the European finals stage, nor as great as lifting the Summoner's Cup in Los Angeles, which represents the highest honor in the world.

But this is China.

In Liang Yan's heart, this Silver Dragon Cup holds special significance.

It is the starting point on the road to the Bird's Nest.

"Lift the cup, VG!!!"

The two male commentators shouted together.

Once again, golden rain drifted down, and the eight or nine members of VG, working together, lifted the Silver Dragon Cup high above their heads.

The dazzling light from above shone down on Liang Yan's head, and together with the silver glow reflected from the Silver Dragon Cup, it illuminated his face; from a certain angle, the scene's ambiance is very nice.

Below the stage, a quick-handed photographer captured this moment; in the history of the LPL, he left the first indelible mark for "Firrrrrre".

On the periphery of the crowd, the short-statured analyst Tabe was squeezed out, unable to raise the cup with everyone; his eyes full of envy, his mind thinking:

"Lose the thunder tower plot, next time I'm wearing height‑increasing shoes!"

……

At the same moment, Berlin Airport.

Before boarding, Lao Zhang saw on his phone the news of VG's undefeated championship.

Even the front page of the official Fist website posted a prominent congratulatory notice in real time:

【Congratulations to the VG team for winning the 2017 LPL Spring Season championship; only a day apart, our League of Legends history has gained another invincible army!

【At the same time, VG will represent the LPL region in this year's MSI!

【On this stage that can be called a dragon‑tiger battleground, another fierce beast has charged in!

Lao Zhang then scrolled through his own Twitter, finding someone leaving a comment below, asking how he viewed VG's championship and hoping who would win this year's MSI.

Speaking fairly, from a personal perspective, as Liang Yan's friend, Lao Zhang felt proud and honored for his old brother's achievement.

But at this moment, he is the coach of G2.

After thinking, Lao Zhang posted two remarks on Twitter and Weibo respectively:

【@VG. Firrrrrre, congratulations!

【We're waiting for you in Ba Xi!】

At the venue, the awards ceremony ended, the rest of VG had already left the stage, leaving only Liang Yan standing alone on the stage.

Ren Dong stood beside him, holding a microphone:

"That's right, I believe everyone has already guessed it; then let's together announce the Most Valuable Player of this 2017 LPL Spring Season Finals—FMVP!"

Ren Dong paused, then raised his voice again and shouted loudly:

"In these three matches, he demonstrated unparalleled Ye Qu dominance, and whether he played a supportive role or carried the damage, his style was versatile and he could handle it with ease!"

"His Emerald God is the guardian deity who meticulously looks after his teammates, the elusive rhythm controller, and can even be the wall that blocks the enemy!"

"His Male Gun is a lawless marauder rampaging through Ye Qu and looting everything, a deadly accurate hunter controlling life and death, and moreover the ultimate weapon that smashes defenses and ends team fights!"

"Whether it's reliable data or in-game performance, it's enough to show that giving this FMVP to this player will be truly deserved!"

"That's right, he is——!"

"Firrrrrre!!!"
