[Retired with an injured hand + Realistic Rift + Overwhelming Advantage + Passionate National Showdown]
Three years ago, the prodigy jungler Lu Xiao retired in bitter defeat because of a hand injury. His era ended before it had even begun.
Three years later, he is accidentally drawn into the “Shadow Canyon,” where games are no longer just code on a screen, but real battles of flesh and blood.
In this physical world made real:
Skills have no fixed cooldowns. As long as your body can take it, you can chain them endlessly!
Movement has no recovery lag. If your reflexes are fast enough, you can cleave bullets with your blade and pass like a shadow without a trace!
The moment Lu Xiao discovers that the Shadow Plane can nullify his hand injury, and that its rewards can benefit the real world, the entire esports landscape collapses.
He is a nightmare to streamers: “Are you kidding me? That Li Bai just sliced a turret clean in half. How are we supposed to play against that?”
He is a phantom to professional players: “His movement makes no sense by the game’s rules. He’s risking his life to outmaneuver us!”
He is a forbidden name among foreign servers: “Please, don’t let him near the high ground. That’s China’s ‘Great Wall’!”
From breaking through with his own body in the 1200-point Challenger queue to standing alone at the gates of the global servers, guarding his homeland.
As reality and illusion overlap, Lu Xiao returns to the top of the KPL, holding his shattered greatsword before the eyes of the world.
“What I once lost, I’ll take back with my own hands.”
