"Probably for the spot in the World Championship," Lee Sang-hyuk casually replied to Silly Chicken's inquiry.
Then, Lee Sang-hyuk's gaze shifted to Bang beside him. This man was as composed as ever!
To be honest, Lee Sang-hyuk never expected to have the chance to be teammates with Bang.
Before his rebirth, Bang was a super AD in the LK Region, a source of pride for players across the Korean Server.
Even though Lee Sang-hyuk had been reborn and felt confident about his future prospects, he still wouldn't dare to claim he could outplay Bang, who was known as the Strongest Player on Earth.
But it didn't matter; they were no longer rivals from their previous lives but had instead become comrades fighting side by side. Just being able to team up with someone like Bang gave Lee Sang-hyuk an immense sense of reassurance.
The bottom lane was secured!
Silly Chicken lightly nudged Lee Sang-hyuk's shoulder and leaned in curiously, asking, "Hey Sang-hyuk, what do you think of Bang?"
"Very strong!"
Lee Sang-hyuk rarely showed a relaxed expression; instead, he spoke seriously, "Silly Chicken, you must not underestimate Bang. In my opinion, he's not weaker than Huafu's Kai."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Silly Chicken became quite excited.
Who was Kai? He was hailed as the world's number one AD player and was a star on Huafu's team, second only to Position. For Lee Sang-hyuk to compare Bang to Kai was indeed an astonishing evaluation.
Fortunately, Bang was fully focused on the game with his headphones on and didn't notice the conversation between Lee Sang-hyuk and Silly Chicken at all.
Silly Chicken and Lee Sang-hyuk exchanged a few words, feeling that it wasn't right to slack off. He turned back to his seat and began training.
Soon, SK's coach, Brother Li Hong, walked into the training room. He clapped his hands to stop a few players who were busy ranking up.
When Lee Sang-hyuk and the others gathered in front of him, Brother Li Hong expressed his satisfaction, saying, "Everyone, the slots for the LK Region in the AE Alliance have been confirmed. Our LK Region will receive two additional slots, just like the LPL Region."
"Nice!" Even Lee Sang-hyuk, who was usually calm and composed, couldn't help but praise Brother Li Hong for his impressive work.
In his previous life, the Korean Server, with a similar number of players, suffered significant losses during the AE Alliance Conference. As a result, the vast LK Region ended up with only one additional slot in the allocation.
This time around, when Brother Li Hong was preparing to attend the AE Alliance Conference, Lee Sang-hyuk had secretly given him some pointers.
Although Lee Sang-hyuk wasn't sure how much it would help, he decided to give it a try. To his surprise, that casual suggestion led LK to secure two additional slots.
The increase of these two slots meant that LK Region's World Championship slots jumped to three. In his previous life, only the champions and runners-up of the LK League could participate in the World Championship. Now, even the third-place team from the LK League could go.
With three World Championship slots, it became much easier for several teams from LK to qualify for the World Championship. The chances of winning also increased significantly.
Lee Sang-hyuk noticed that although the Goddess Alliance remained largely unchanged since his rebirth, many aspects had transformed considerably.
Position was still the unbeatable king, and Huafu remained a formidable opponent. However, the Prize Pool had skyrocketed to an incomprehensible level, and there were subtle changes in the World Championship slots as well.
But for Lee Sang-hyuk, all of this was good news; it didn't instill any fear or anxiety in him.
Brother Li Hong continued with a smile, "With these additional World Championship slots, our pressure has decreased significantly. This season, my expectation for everyone is to win the LK League championship and advance to the World Championship."
"Isn't it enough to just take the Top Three? After all, we can all enter the World Championship, right?" Silly Chicken asked in confusion.
"No, no, no, it's not the same!"
Brother Li Hong explained, "Each champion from every region is a seed team for the World Championship and can enter without going through the qualifiers. Other teams have to go through a round of qualifiers to reach the final stage of the World Championship."
After Brother Li Hong's explanation, everyone understood the importance of this championship.
Lee Sang-hyuk didn't think much of it. With such a strong lineup in SK, even the ultimate S1 World Championship title was within reach. The LK League championship was hardly worth mentioning.
It wasn't just him; even the other members of the team shared this mindset. Everyone looked down on the other teams in LK, at least for now.
It wasn't that they were arrogant; it was simply a fact. With Lee Sang-hyuk and Silly Chicken on their team, if they couldn't secure the LK League championship, it would be quite embarrassing.
As the coach, Brother Li Hong was well aware of his players' complacency. However, he had a broader perspective and didn't share their arrogance.
He sternly warned, "Everyone should not be careless. Our LK Region has many opponents we need to be wary of. Samsung Group has recently entered the Goddess Alliance professional scene and formed two teams: Samsung Blue and Samsung White. They will be tough opponents for us in SK."
As soon as Brother Li Hong mentioned Three Stars, the self-satisfaction in everyone's eyes faded significantly. Even a pig with a Three Stars label shouldn't be underestimated!
In his previous life, it seemed that Three Stars hadn't ventured into the Goddess Alliance, Lee Sang-hyuk thought to himself.
Despite the Goddess Alliance's ongoing popularity in his past life, there weren't many worthy opponents for SK in the LK Region.
Unexpectedly, in this life, this colossal entity known as Three Stars had also entered the Goddess Alliance professional scene. This news made Lee Sang-hyuk furrow his brows deeply.
"Actually, it's not just Three Stars; even Daewoo and LG Modern have plans for the Goddess Alliance professional sector. If nothing unexpected happens, we should soon see the Modern team and the LG team," Brother Li Hong said again.
This was also something that Lee Sang-hyuk found strange about the Goddess Alliance. In his previous life, the Goddess Alliance did not have so many corporations involved.
"Coach, why are there so many corporations entering the Goddess Alliance professional sector?" Lee Sang-hyuk asked with a frown.
Brother Li Hong smiled and patted Lee Sang-hyuk on the shoulder, explaining, "Don't worry, Sang-hyuk. The reason they are entering this field is simply because they are coveting the high prize money of the Goddess Alliance championship. However, we at SK are the strongest in the LK Region, so we don't need to worry about that."
In fact, Brother Li Hong was exactly right about what these corporations were considering. The world's number one championship prize pool indeed attracted a lot of corporate attention.
Although the Japanese server wasn't very popular, Sony and other corporations had also formed their own Goddess League Professional Clubs.
As for Europe and America, countless large enterprises were entering the Goddess Alliance professional sector. One by one, clubs bearing the names of well-known companies sprang up across Europe and America.
