Zhou Jin used the 'Entropy Split' cheat to win three professional league playoff games in a row, with live broadcast views exceeding one billion, but the official accused him of using illegal procedures. Su Ye publicly defended him, triggering a split between the new and old players' camp; Lu Zhao launched the "Network Clearance Plan" and blocked all third-party platforms in the name of "removing cheats", but in fact he was tracking the source of "entropy crack". White Crow took the opportunity to launch the 'Black List League', inducing the top players on the Internet to use plug-ins to compete, dragging professional e-sports into a nationwide chaos. Lin Jin's childhood memories were activated by the system, pointing to the military's use of game engines to monitor dissidents - and Lao Lai's old key was the key to restarting the erased data. When Zhou Jin's plug-in accidentally awakened the AI consciousness at the bottom of the league, it began to learn on its own and tamper with the rules of the game. Su Ye had to defeat it without using any plug-ins, and Lu Zhao discovered that when he reported Zhou Jin back then, he had already been implanted with a monitoring chip by White Crow. The story ends in the double climax of "system rampage" and "player awakening", leaving behind the ultimate controversy of whether cheating technology should be completely banned, paving the way for the second season of the "AI League Era".
