Clap! Clap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the contracts mostly settled, Jiang Ming clapped lightly, celebrating NXG’s first official signings after entering the LPL.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, next up—this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jingyi pulled a box from under the table. “Ta-da! Our team’s first set of jerseys is ready—come try them on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A utility knife sliced through the tape, the plastic bag rustling softly as it opened, revealing five brand-new jerseys neatly arranged inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black, white, and red in alternating patterns, matching the team base’s exterior design.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the back was the NXG logo; on the front and right shoulder were advertisements for YY and Youchen Meat Pastry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jingyi lifted one set.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy shit, this is so cool?” Song Yuan’s thick Sichuan-Chongqing accent echoed in the training room; he immediately stepped forward and snatched the jersey from the manager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a sharp rip, he slipped it on without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each jersey set consisted of three pieces: jacket, pants, and a long-sleeve T-shirt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everyone change into yours, check the fit—if anything doesn’t suit, we’ll swap it immediately—we need to shoot the team’s official portrait, and we can’t do that without the jerseys.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, no one hesitated—they rushed forward to find the jersey with their own ID printed on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dressed in the jerseys, the five players—each with vastly different builds—stood in the room, creating a striking visual: the bulky top laner Song Yuan stood in sharp contrast to the slender support Pang Ran.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The meaty top laner and the cash-strapped support!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The jungler Shi Tou was the tallest, perfectly matching the shortest mid laner, A Qiang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe, check out how much cooler I look in this gear—did I get hotter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Tao, whose build was the most average and whose looks were decent, asked self-consciously.\u003C\u002Fp>",1085,"2026-06-20T04:16:26.320Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","8eedfafc444a143bc5974ec0abcae820785a0fa82de75492ce2cc65af8b57d6b","reborn-in-s3-training-the-entire-league-chapter-54","reborn-in-s3-training-the-entire-league-chapter-52",190,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-s3-training-the-entire-league-cover.jpg"]
