Chapter 1 This is the world of The King's Avatar, and you want me to play eSports?
"...System, are you sure you want me to enter the e-sports industry? Or... change to something else?"

At the headquarters of Tenghai Company, in the president's office, the CEO of Tenghai Company, Pei Yunteng, stared at the light screen in front of him and asked tentatively.

"This system is an e-sports empire system. Its only mission is to assist the host in establishing an e-sports dynasty covering the entire world." The system's cold electronic voice echoed in Pei Yunteng's mind.

"...Okay, then can we start with other game types, such as RTS, fighting games, or card auto chess? It would be fine, too, or even Hearthstone or something..."

A drop of cold sweat quietly flowed down Pei Yunteng's forehead, but he forced himself to remain calm.

"Host, please follow the system's plan! According to system analysis, League of Legends is currently the most suitable game for the host and the most suitable game for opening up the e-sports blue ocean!"

The system remains unmoved.

Seeing that the system was unresponsive, Pei Yunteng sighed helplessly.

As a time traveler, I have been in this world for ten years before the system finally arrived.

As soon as he arrived, he gave himself an outrageous task:

"Main Mission 1: Host, please release the game "League of Legends" within three years, establish a league system in each major region, and host at least one successful world finals!"

"Reward: The host and his immediate family members will receive 20 years of lifespan, as well as lifetime immunity from injury or illness!"

Logically speaking, as the founder of the Internet giant Tencent, a top boss worth hundreds of billions, and an absolutely successful person, he could have completely ignored the late system.

But considering that the reward given by the system is health and longevity that cannot be bought with money, Pei Yunteng decided to negotiate with the system.

"Yes, yes, Master System, you are right."

"Since the system master has analyzed it so thoroughly, can you tell me--"

He picked up the remote control on the desk and turned on the TV.

"Where is the so-called 'e-sports blue ocean' you mentioned?"

Coincidentally, the news broadcast on TV was exactly related to e-sports.

"Today, Team Excellent Era faced Team Howling at their home stadium in City H. They lost 3:7 and suffered another defeat. Their league ranking dropped to th place, and they are officially in the relegation match."

Seeing the e-sports news being reported so formally by the local TV station on TV, Pei Yunteng's face turned dark.

Ah, yes, this is the world of The King's Avatar.

As a time traveler, I came to this world ten years ago and became the boss of a small game studio on the verge of bankruptcy.
Pei Yunteng witnessed the grand occasion when "Glory" was released.

In his previous life, Pei Yunteng had not read much of "The King's Avatar", and his understanding of Glory was still a patchwork of DNF and Yamaguchi-san.

It was not until I played this game myself that I realized how terrifying it was: the technological gap between it and other games on the market is at least thirty years!
Such extreme environmental interaction, such outstanding graphics, such rich combat scenes...

Even ten years later, relying on his foresight as a time traveler and "reasonable reference" to Internet projects in his previous life, he turned Tencent from a small studio into an Internet giant with a market value of over 100 billion US dollars today.

We still cannot see the possibility of bridging that terrifying technological gap.

Even though he finally had the system that a time traveler needed, it arrived too late.

"Look, the game Glory has been able to maintain a 30-year technological gap with the industry's top level for ten consecutive years. I don't believe it without some official background."

Pei Yunteng pointed at the TV and kept talking.

"Look, one team, one city, one home stadium, NBA-level status, LPL and the like are not worthy of supporting them."

"Not to mention the professional players in Glory. They have good looks and good character. They make Laopilao look like a bunch of street hooligans..."

"If you ask me, we shouldn't be so ambitious. Even if we want to get into e-sports, it's better to avoid the fierce competition first, such as starting with card games..." Just when Pei Yunteng was about to make another effort and fool the system in one step, the cold electronic voice that had been silent for a long time suddenly sounded again.

"Since the host believes that he has no chance of winning against Glory, could the host please explain——"

It seemed that the system had taken effect. Pei Yunteng's computer on the desk suddenly started running automatically, wandering around in a huge amount of files, and finally clicked on an inconspicuous folder and opened an inconspicuous Word document.

"What is the purpose of this document?"

The name of the document is simple, but equally important:
Excellent Era Sniper Plan

From the moment the system started operating his computer, the laziness and vulgarity on Pei Yunteng's face, which was similar to that of Kizaru, began to gradually dissipate.

In the end, all that was left was a sneer and a sharp gleam in his eyes.

"What else could it be? It's just that I'm unwilling to give up." Pei Yunteng, who doesn't smoke, picked up a lollipop, peeled off the candy wrapper and put it in his mouth, leaving half a white stick that was almost the same size as a cigarette.

"The game itself has not had a major version update for three years, the competition rules are based on capital buying numbers at will, and most players live in a game ecosystem that is even worse than in reality..."

He pushed up his glasses, trying to block the cold light in his eyes as much as possible.

"As a reader, I used to think that this was because the author wrote the book too early, had limited knowledge of e-sports, and the e-sports ecosystem was not mature."

"I have been in this world for ten years. As a colleague, I have watched helplessly as this weirdo relied on the technological gap and first-mover advantage to succeed."

"It occupies such a large market, has such loyal fans, and has such a group of high-quality players."

“Who can be willing?”

As if he had sensed the reluctance in his tone, Pei Yunteng sighed: "But even so, I have waited for ten years."

"On the one hand, we need to accumulate our own strength and team, and build a foundation that is strong enough to compete with Glory."

"On the other hand, just wait for an opportunity!"

"A chance for the Glory League to dig its own grave. A little manipulation will seriously damage its vitality!"

Pei Yunteng's eyes were blank, recalling the farce of the "GOAT" running away at the beginning of "The King's Avatar".

Even to this day he still hasn't figured out what kind of ridiculous train of thought could allow the people at Excellent Era to pull off such an epic rotten thing.

If we don't make a big fuss about Ye Xiu's retirement, we will be unworthy of his ugly face as a capitalist and colleague.

"...But even so, I'm not sure I can really gain a foothold in the field of e-sports." He suddenly sighed dejectedly.

Honor, after all, is a world-class behemoth.

After a long while, the system's electronic voice sounded again, but this time, it had a little more humane encouragement:
"With the system in place, the host only needs to be bold and try."

"Technology and background are not a problem!"

Hearing this, Pei Yunteng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he smiled. The dejection on his face disappeared, and he was as happy as a monkey who had found a peach:

"That's what I've been waiting for!"
