Han Shihao shook his head: "It's just that I'm a little tired from training, so I just came out to breathe."
The man... That is, M nodded slightly, showing a look of approval: "Yes, your recent training has been too intense, you should relax yourself a little bit."
As we all know, even in the LCK region of Korea, the SSK team as a whole is definitely a more hard-working team than other club teams.
Among them, Han Shihao, the core soul of the team, worked harder than other teammates.
Twenty-four hours a day, apart from eating and sleeping, he devoted almost all the rest of the time to various trainings. Even after the official training schedule of the club was over, he would drive himself in the Hanbok king group. Go solo and continue to train yourself.
The finals are approaching recently, and he even strengthened his initiative to increase the intensity of his preparation and training.
It is simply a huge training volume that is absolutely unbearable for anyone else.
After evaluating such a sentence, M's words changed:
"Speaking of which, you don't need to fight like that."
"The intensity is a bit too much, and the coaches and team leaders of your club are worried about whether your body can handle it—"
"Especially at this time, in fact, you just need to rest and adjust your physical condition."
"The rest... it's your opponent's turn to be nervous."
There's nothing wrong with that.
On the one hand, when the realm of strength has reached the height of Han Shihao, in fact, there is no need to do a lot of training to make further breakthroughs, because this is not realistic at all, standing at the top of the pyramid still wants to improve. Further progress is naturally extremely difficult, not something that can be accomplished in a short time.
on the other hand…
Even if he just maintains his current state of strength, Han Shihao can hardly find any rivals in today's world professional e-sports circle.
There are only a few of the four emperors who are qualified to become opponents, and even the top powerhouses in the realm of the seven kings are no longer enough in front of him, who is now recognized as the head of the four emperors.
Being able to get such an undisguised compliment from the most respected and admirable senior, Han Shihao still showed no joy on his face.
M raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled, and lowered his head to support the frame on the bridge of his nose:
"so… "
"You still have something to worry about."
"What are you thinking about?" He paused for a while, without giving the junior in front of him a chance to answer or refute, M has already continued on his own: "There is nothing wrong with the team; your own state is also It's been good; the finals in a few days ... it shouldn't put you under any pressure."
"So-"
M looked at Han Shihao with gentle eyes, and the pupils under the lens shone with a wise and thorough light:
"Only because of some other people."
"Or... the upcoming Finals, reminding you of someone?"
The night is as cool as water.
The atmosphere on the terrace suddenly became quiet with these words.
Han Shihao remained silent, but his eyelids twitched slightly, falling into M's eyes and making him smile again: "I guessed it... Then let me guess again—"
"It's that little guy from China."
"That little guy who played five finals with you in the S1 season."
"Also... 'that one''s apprentice."
The voice still fell softly and flatly.
But the moment he heard this sentence, Han Shihao, who was standing in front of M, bowed his head slightly, but a sharp edge suddenly flashed in his eyes.
Seeing the subtle changes in the reactions of the juniors in front of him, M smiled again:
"You guessed it right."
"Also... After so many seasons, after the finals are played year after year, perhaps only the earliest first season was the most challenging one for you."
There is nothing wrong with that.
Perhaps for the vast majority of professional teams and professional players, the World Finals of the S series is already the highest goal and arena they are chasing, and there is no need to mention which one is specific, any one is the same. of intense tension.
But this is not the case for Han Shihao.
From S1 to now.
Not counting the sixth finals that is about to start this year, he has already participated in five full sessions before.
Five times.
A three-time champion.
For ordinary people, it is impossible for ordinary people, and for most professional e-sports players, even if they only hope to win the highest honor once, in him, the trophy has almost become weak.
Especially in the past two years, after the SSK team's dominance in the e-sports circle has become more and more unstoppable, even the S-series league, which is recognized as the top glory event, seems to be an easy task for SSK. For example, the North American Season or the European Legend team can't create enough threat pressure for them.
And indeed it is just like what M said at the moment.
Compared to these seasons…
On the contrary, only the S1 finals of that year, the final BO5 match, was the pinnacle battle that was truly frightening and blood boiling to the extreme.
Han Shihao lowered his head and remained silent, but the flickering light in his eyes revealed his mood at the moment.
It seems to be recalling the past.
M, who didn't get a response, didn't care, just raised his head and looked at the bright moon in the night sky in the distance, with a little emotion:
"Ashamed to say, F and I competed with the Chinese... for an entire generation."
"But never really took advantage of it."
"That's what we regret the most."
"However, I didn't expect the competition of the previous generation to continue into this generation, but you helped us find our face."
"Our junior, defeated their junior—"
After speaking, he paused, and looked at Han Shihao again with an admiring smile in his eyes: "I really want to thank you for this."
Han Shihao bowed slightly and said respectfully that he did not dare to accept the salute.
Immediately, M turned the conversation away: "That little guy, he appeared at MSI before. You were selected to play in the All-Star Interactive Exhibition Game and played against the bottom lane. I also watched that game."
"It is indeed worthy of the apprentices who have been taught. Even if they return after many years of retirement, they still have such a level, which is amazing."
"but-"
After a pause again, M looked at Han Shihao:
"There is still a big gap with you."
"Now you have reached the heights that the older generation of us have reached. More importantly, compared to those of us who are destined to be unable to make further progress, you are still moving forward."
"Ahead... is already a road almost never traveled."
"On the left and right, there are no companions and no opponents."
"So even the little guy who was able to compete with you back then has already been left behind by you, and since this is the case, then there is no need to look back, just concentrate on moving forward."
"In this new generation, your opponent... should be only yourself."
The gentle sound of persuasion swayed in the cool night wind.
The terrace is silent.
Han Shihao was silent, and finally raised his head. After listening and being taught for so long, he took the initiative to look at M for the first time, and said slowly:
"What the seniors taught is."
"However, what I thought of just now... it wasn't that guy at all."
"Or-"
"It's not just that guy."
