The Whole World Thinks I’m a Woman Disguised as a Man - CH 13.1

He must win (1)

Training camp.

“Have you heard?”

“Babycandy? She came to the training camp because of Wen Yan, the entire world knows about it.”

“What of it? Sneaking into the training camp is fine, but if she wants to go to LGW…keep dreaming.”

“But it seems like it has been quite a few years since…a girl came to the training camp!”

Amidst everyone’s sniggering, someone mysteriously said, “I heard that sniper who shot Yan God and then bullied the low-level accounts will also come to the training camp.”

“What?! Isn’t he top ten in the national server? What’s he doing beating the low-level accounts?”

“Well what else? To get popular!” That person scornfully said, “Who’s Yan God? A lot of people use his popularity to climb up the ladder. We have Yan God as our special coach in our training camp this time. Just wait, it’ll be very exciting.”

Everyone burst into questions in whispers. No one noticed the young man striding past the crowd in one location as he pulled down the brim of his hat while pulling a luggage.

The new student registration center was soon crowded. Everyone was well-known figures in Apocalypse. The majority encountered each other in the game, and these online friends met each other now. When a group of men is together, it is not unusual to hear endless boastful talks.

The young man with the lowered hat glanced at the entrance that was long deserted. Those eyes hidden under the hat were of utmost androgynous beauty, but they were currently filled with worry.

The owner of this pair of eyes was Xue Lan.

Why is Duan Wenzheng not here yet?

Didn’t he say…he would also come to the training camp today? Why hasn’t he arrived…or was he only teasing him yesterday?

After all, in the original plot, Duan Wenzheng only entered the training camp with the identity of “rookie king” after participating in the semi-professional invitational tournament.

But even if he knew that, to avoid him Xue Lan set out to the training camp early in the early morning. He couldn’t help feeling restless as he waited in anticipation looking at the gate.

Of course he wanted to come to the training camp together with Duan Wenzheng, however…

In the original work, when “Xue Lan” arrived at the training camp everyone immediately recognized he was BabyCandy, but soon he confessed to Wen Yan again which deepened Wen Yan’s hatred toward him. Soon after, he was ridiculed by the crowd.

At least Duan Wenzheng would not get in trouble with him…

Xue Lan lowered his hat again, hoping no one would recognize him.

But just as he was thinking this, someone among the crowd cried out, “Everyone look, that person looks like…BabyCandy Xue Lan?!”

Xue Lan froze. Everyone’s eyes fell on him simultaneously.

“Fuck, don’t tell me it’s really her…Looks like the rumors are true, she actually came to the training camp for Wen Yan?”

“But why did she cut her hair? And wear such clothes?”

Xue Lan pressed his lips together under all the eyes that were flung at him from all sides. In the end, he removed his hat after a moment’s hesitation. Nice to meet you.” Knowing there were some things he couldn’t avoid, he straightened his back and spoke with a voice neither quick nor slow that was clear to every person present. “I came to the training camp not because of Wind, I am the same as everyone, hoping to enter the club I like with my own strength. Also…I’m a man.”

The hall was silent after he concluded his speech.

Xue Lan had anticipated this kind of reaction. He quietly relaxed. He was about to say something again when he heard everyone who was just in a trance break into peals of laughter—

“Lady, you’re too head over heels. Because of Yan God…It couldn’t be that you think Yan God likes men, so you dress as a man because your attempts as a woman failed?”

“Professional esports player is different from live streaming. A professional player relies on your strength and your strength is not something you can get by relying on a good teammate.”

“That’s right, in a professional competition, some cheating sniper will also not be able to save you!”

Everyone spoke their minds and guffawed once more.

The temperature of Xue Lan’s eyes slowly dropped. He originally didn’t want to deal with these people’s views.

He glanced at the computers behind the transparent windows at the back of the hall. He clenched his fingers.

“Reset did not cheat. You should know what such a remark means to an esports player.”

“Whether you cheated or not, you don’t have the final say.” Among the crowd, a haughty young man said, “The people who cheat don’t deserve to play esports.”

“Qiu-ge is right!” Everyone echoed one after another.

Xue Lan’s hands clenched beneath his sleeves.

“Since you said professional players rely on strength, then let’s play a game. If you all win I will leave the training camp, but if I win…I hope I will not hear about this matter anymore. In addition, each of you has to apologize to Reset.”

Xue Lan’s gaze instantly changed as he looked indifferently at everyone. He said calmly, “Solo survival match. The result will be decided in one game.”

“Uh…”

Everyone stared at each other, hesitating.

“Lady, you’re a medic, even if we win it won’t be fair to you.”

“Uh…Let’s forget it, lady, I didn’t say he cheated, but everyone has just come to the training camp, you don’t have to be so angry…”

“Exactly. Besides, the training camp staff hasn’t come, if we turn on the computer without permission…”

“Who said I’ll use medic?” Xue Lan still pushed open the door and went into the training room. He put the keyboard bag on the table and lifted his head, his action in no hurry. “Do you dare to bet?”
