[Esports, strong female lead, passionate, some character growth but not much, 1v1]
At fifteen, Jiang Ruan burst onto the scene like a razor-sharp blade, determined to reach the top of Glory of War, the esports game everyone claimed women could never compete in.
Everyone laughed at her impossible dream. Everyone wanted her out of the scene. But fueled by her love for the game, she made it to the very top, where everyone looked up to her.
Shen Yan is a three-time KPL champion, an immortal legend on that stage, and the person the entire esports scene hopes will keep playing for as long as possible.
The first time he heard the name Jiang Ruan, he said, “She’s just a rookie kid. She’ll be running away in tears before long.”
But the girl didn’t cry. She broke their winning streak and toppled the dynasty they had built.
“Anyone can come and fight for a place on this stage, but the ones who can truly stay are the best.”
“That year, even if people didn’t know Jiang Ruan, everyone knew Yuguang.”
In a post-match interview, Shen Yan answered the host’s question with a tender, loving gaze: “How lucky I am that someone as dazzling as her could be my lover.”
