Chapter 935: Ruler of Esports 49

At Tang Wan’s words, the atmosphere instantly turned awkward.

Everyone present twitched slightly, caught off guard by how bluntly she exposed things. But she wasn’t done yet.

Tang Wan spoke calmly, her tone steady. “And I clearly remember you saying we weren’t from the same world. That I was just the girl next door.”

Strictly speaking, the original owner had never truly confessed. It was Lin Haiyang who approached her first—under the excuse of copying homework—and then passively allowed the relationship to exist. In the end, she was the only one who took it seriously.

Lin Haiyang’s expression stiffened with embarrassment.

Yes, he had used her at the start. But hadn’t they still been together? Now that Tang Wan was with Fan Tong, she was denying everything?

For a moment, he looked like he wanted to argue further.

But before he could speak, the staff arrived to call both teams to record their pre-match declarations. Lin Haiyang had no choice but to swallow his frustration.

After the recording, there were less than twenty minutes before the finals.

Both teams moved to the stage to adjust their equipment.

Fan Tong sat beside Tang Wan, his voice low with concern. “Wan Wan, are you okay? Don’t let him affect you. I trust you.”

Tang Wan smiled faintly. “Don’t worry. I don’t care about him at all. Why would I be affected?”

Only then did Fan Tong relax.

But the next second, his expression cooled. He turned to the coach. “Coach, I want to play assassin this round.”

The coach paused briefly, then nodded. “Alright. Then Tang Wan—”

“I’ll play a fighter,” Tang Wan said directly.

The coach hesitated for a moment, then nodded again. “Understood.” His mind was already racing, adjusting the team’s lineup accordingly.

Twenty minutes later, the match officially began.

As expected, the NSDD team immediately banned Sun Shangxiang and Zhuge Liang—two of Tang Wan’s strongest picks.

Tang Wan remained completely unfazed.

They clearly assumed she would take a mage or marksman role again. What they didn’t know was that she was an all-rounder—capable of playing any position.

When the final hero selections locked in, the audience erupted.

“Dandan picked a fighter?! I thought she’d go assassin!”

“I’ve never seen her play fighter on stream!”

“This is going to be interesting…”

Even the NSDD team was surprised.

But they quickly relaxed.

Compared to her terrifying mage and marksman gameplay, a fighter seemed far less threatening.

That confidence didn’t last long.

Just ninety seconds into the game, Tang Wan secured first blood.

Her Kai had already taken down the opposing marksman.

“Damn! Is that Kai cheating?” the enemy shooter snapped. “How does a fighter beat a marksman this early?!”

In reality, nothing abnormal had happened.

Tang Wan’s positioning was simply too precise. The marksman’s skills struggled to land, while Kai relied on basic attacks and short bursts. Against a squishy target, each strike dealt heavy, visible damage.

“Have the support rotate to you,” the NSDD captain instructed calmly. “Play safe and scale.”

“Got it,” the shooter replied, though his tone was far less confident than before.

Because deep down, he already realized—

This “less threatening” fighter… might be even scarier than the roles she played before.
