After taking off his noise-canceling headphones, Ye Shaoyang hugged Chi Shu immediately.
At this moment, the person he wanted to thank the most was Chi Shu.
The captain who pulled him into Team Tianhuan, pushed through all objections to make him a starter, and gave him the best opportunities.
And also the lover who had always supported and trusted him.
From meeting online and duo-queueing together to standing side by side at the scene of the domestic grand finals and winning the championship, it had actually only been a year and a half.
But Ye Shaoyang felt like they had known each other for a long time.
Chi Shu could always understand his thoughts, and he could always keep up with Chi Shu's rhythm.
In the final team fight, with the help of their teammates, the two joined forces to wipe out the opposing team. Ye Shaoyang used his second penta kill since his debut to secure the victory in the final game of the grand finals.
Started with a penta kill, ended with a penta kill.
Tianhuan in S10 concluded the China Region professional league perfectly!
The two hugged each other tightly. Nothing needed to be said; they could feel each other's joy and excitement.
Cheng Xing jumped up directly, and Qu Jiang and Old Qin hugged each other with tears in their eyes.
For three years, they had suffered countless criticisms and been scolded by countless haters until they couldn't lift their heads. But at this moment, all the hard work and perseverance were worth it!
The China Region Grand Championship was the best reward for them.
Yao Mu had tears in her eyes. "Congratulations again to Tianhuan for winning the Gods' War Professional League Season 10 Championship! At the same time, thanks to Team Beimu for their wonderful performance, leaving us with an intense match worth savoring repeatedly!"
Brother Dong said, "Let's take a look at the MVP of this match… Without a doubt, the Finals MVP (FMVP) goes to Tianhuan Lieyang's [Abyssal Lord]! The penta kill in the final Baron fight makes him the well-deserved MVP player!"
FMVP, the Most Valuable Player of the Finals.
The value of this award was very high. The officials would create a set of FMVP Legendary Skins specifically for the FMVP hero of each season. Ye Shaoyang's signature hero was [Abyssal Lord], and he was happy to see the officials customize a legendary skin for [Abyssal Lord].
In the S6 season, Chi Shu used [Bloodstained Assassin] to win the China Region FMVP; in the S10 season, Ye Shaoyang's [Abyssal Lord] also won the FMVP. Two World Individual Champions, two exclusive FMVP skins!
CP fans were so excited they blew up the Super Topic, saying tonight was like the New Year.
[The best-matched e-sports CP in this world is our Sun-Moon CP!]
[Couple championship trophies, couple FMVP skins—this must be the highest level of showing off affection, right?]
[Although I have handicapped hands and can't play Bloodstained Assassin or Abyssal Lord at all, I must buy the FMVP skins for these two heroes as a souvenir!]
[Hugging each other immediately after the match ended—I've already thought of a name for their child.]
[Sisters, go move the Civil Affairs Bureau here!]
Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shu didn't hug for too long.
Although both were excited, after looking at each other, they quickly calmed down, let go, hugged their teammates one by one to celebrate, and then walked to Beimu's soundproof booth to shake hands.
The stronger the opponent, the more they could stimulate their potential.
Today's match went to a full 5 games and was very satisfying. They truly had to thank their strong opponent, Beimu.
Zhao Xinping stood up, shook hands with Chi Shu, and said calmly, "Congratulations."
Sean looked at Ye Shaoyang and joked, "If I had known earlier, I should have picked [Dark Witch]. At least when you chased me, I could have split apart?"
Zhao Xin'an said helplessly, "Chi Shu, you really should give me a big red envelope! If not for me, how could you have discovered the treasure that is Xiao Bai so quickly!"
Chi Shu said, "Mn, I remember your red envelope. I'll definitely give you a big one in the future."
Watching the five members of Tianhuan turn and leave, Zhao Xin'an had mixed feelings.
He always regretted that Xiao Bai didn't join Beimu and felt unwilling—he discovered the treasure first, but in the end, someone else poached him? However, thinking about it carefully, he knew very well in his heart—only in Tianhuan could Xiao Bai shine like this.
Wasn't the reason Xiao Bai didn't come to Beimu back then because Beimu didn't attach enough importance to this new streamer?
If Beimu had been as sincere as Tianhuan? If Beimu had directly promised him a starter position and given him the best treatment? Would the result have been different?
Unfortunately, there were no 'ifs.'
Ye Shaoyang joined Tianhuan and achieved the legend of the Sun-Moon duo in the S10 season.
As for Beimu, their players were still young. They would continue to work hard and fight again next season!
Beimu's five members bowed and exited. Tianhuan's five members remained on the main stage, bowing to the audience, and deafening applause and cheers erupted from below.
Yao Mu said, "Next, the S10 Season Award Ceremony will take place. Let's invite Mr. Qiu Heng, Chairman of the Gods' War Professional League, to present the award to the S10 Season Champion Team!"
Qiu Heng walked onto the main stage and handed the glittering gold trophy to the five members of Tianhuan.
Under the brilliant lights overhead, Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shu looked at each other and smiled, lifting the trophy high together. Qu Jiang, Old Qin, and Cheng Xing also placed their hands on it, the five of them standing in a circle around the trophy.
Brother Dong handed them the microphone and asked, " Winning the S10 Championship, at this moment, what do you want to say the most?"
Xiao Xing's eyes were red as he choked out, "What I want to say most is, thank you Master for guiding me these past few years, thank you Brother Yang for helping me like an older brother, thank you Brother Qu and Old Qin, and everyone in Team Tianhuan—you are all my family!"
Qu Jiang said seriously, "I am very grateful to my teammates beside me; you will always be my good brothers. Also, my parents came to the scene today. It has been 4 years since I left home as a teenager to play professionally for Team Tianhuan. Mom and Dad have always supported me. Even when Tianhuan's results were poor, you often told me to persevere. Thank you."
He bowed deeply to the audience. Qu Jiang's dad, holding a megaphone, shouted loudly, "Good job! You are also Mom and Dad's pride!"
The audience applauded enthusiastically. Qu Jiang smiled and passed the microphone to Old Qin. Old Qin coughed lightly and said, "I really want to thank everyone in Tianhuan. It's you who gave me the most unforgettable experience of my life. I am truly, especially honored to join Tianhuan!"
Chi Shu gently patted his shoulder, took the microphone, and said in a low voice, "From S6 to S10, after three years, the championship trophy has returned to Team Tianhuan's hands. As the captain of Tianhuan, I fulfilled the promise I made to my master when he retired—we, Tianhuan, regardless of good or bad results, will never give up the dream of winning the championship."
He paused, looked straight ahead, and said firmly, "Today, we realized the dream of the domestic championship. I hope that in the near future, we can stand on the World Championship podium!"
The captain's powerful words made all the Tianhuan fans in the audience cheer excitedly. Many spectators in the back rows even jumped up, holding posters and glow signs high.
Fans who had liked Tianhuan for many years had tears in their eyes at this moment. They knew Chi Shu's hardships—shouldering the heavy responsibility of Tianhuan at 18, experiencing countless twists and turns, and finally proving himself today.
Who said Captain Chi was inferior to Captain Ming? Chi Shu had always been Tianhuan's most steadfast and decisive captain, the shield standing behind the team members and silently supporting everyone!
Chi Shu cast his gaze toward Ye Shaoyang. Ye Shaoyang smiled, took the microphone, and said in a clear voice, "I am very happy to join Tianhuan and become a member of the Tianhuan family. Winning the S10 domestic championship is just the beginning for us. In the future, I will continue to accompany Tianhuan. I hope we can also achieve good results in the World Tournament."
After the brief interview, just as the five members of Tianhuan were about to walk off the main stage holding the championship trophy, Yao Mu suddenly said, "Next, there is one more award to be presented!"
Everyone stopped. Brother Dong smiled and said, "The S10 Season MVP Player Award. The player who won MVP the most times from the regular season to the playoffs—let's shout his name together!"
The audience shouted in unison: "Tianhuan Lieyang!"
The data panel for [Tianhuan Lieyang] was displayed on the big screen. The total number of MVPs won this season was 33, with an average of 5 kills per game and an average KDA rating of 9.8. His hero pool was unfathomably deep.
The well-deserved "Season Most Valuable Player"!
Chairman Qiu smiled and handed a golden trophy to Ye Shaoyang. Ye Shaoyang happily accepted the trophy: "Every one of my MVPs was obtained with the assistance of my teammates. Thank you to my most beloved teammates!"
Yao Mu followed closely, "Next to be presented is the S10 Season Best Rookie Award!"
Brother Dong said, "After selection by the Professional League, among the rookie players debuting this season, the one with the most outstanding progress is—Tianhuan Fan Xing!"
Hearing this sentence, Cheng Xing was completely stunned, looking at a loss.
Until Chi Shu gently pushed him from behind and whispered, "Calling you. Go accept the award."
Only then did Cheng Xing step forward in a daze. "Me? Me?"
Yao Mu laughed. "That's right. Among the rookies debuting this season, Xiao Xing has improved the fastest. The League awards you the Best Rookie Award, hoping that Xiao Xing will have even more outstanding performances in future competitions!"
Chairman Qiu handed the trophy to Cheng Xing and patted his shoulder. "Add oil."
Xiao Xing accepted the trophy, flattered and overwhelmed, his voice trembling with excitement: "Thank you! Thank you to the League for recognizing me. Hehe, I will continue to work hard and improve!"
Actually, Ye Shaoyang was also a rookie debuting this season.
But his performance was too outstanding, not like a rookie at all. With a record of 33 MVPs, he directly won the season's "Most Valuable Player Award," so the Rookie Award couldn't be repeatedly awarded to him.
based on comprehensive evaluation, Cheng Xing made the fastest progress among rookies this season, so giving this award to Xiao Xing was reasonable.
The five members of Tianhuan returned backstage holding their trophies. Cheng Xing said excitedly, "Today's harvest is too bountiful!"
Champion, MVP, Best Rookie!
Three glittering gold trophies. Tianhuan had a great harvest in the S10 season.
The team that had experienced a low point for 3 consecutive years finally turned over completely today.
Backstage, Team Manager Tang Can walked over excitedly. "Congratulations everyone, you are awesome! The club had me book a restaurant in advance to hold a celebration banquet. Everyone's family members are also invited to attend."
Cheers erupted around them.
Ye Shaoyang and Chi Shu looked at each other and smiled.
At this moment, with a simple glance, the thoughts in both their hearts were the same—
The S10 Season China Region competition had temporarily come to an end. Tianhuan harvested 3 trophies, and the final result was satisfying. But they all knew this wasn't the end. The crueler World Tournament was waiting for them ahead.
Experts from various countries around the world, such as Choi Hyuk, Park Won-seok, Mitchell, Vanessa, etc., were eyeing the S10 World Championship trophy covetously. Although the two of them had won Individual World Championships, the 5v5 World Championship had always been their unrealized dream.
The two told each other with their gaze: With you by my side, no matter how strong the opponent is, there is nothing to fear.
Together, we will conquer the world and bring back another championship.
