The Morning Star, the Prairie Fire

An ID called "Fingertip Peak" burst onto the national rankings in Blueprint. Using a Ludwig that was behind the current meta, he racked up a hundred consecutive wins and climbed to number one on the entire server, making a name for himself in one battle. After reaching the top of the national server, Yin Xi could hardly wait to have the words "I'm awesome" carved into his face. He planned to put together a team for the City Friendship Tournament, and all they were missing was a mage who knew how to play. By chance, he discovered that Ji Shuang, the aloof top student in the class next door, was a skilled mage. He decided to try to recruit him for his team. Unfortunately, he and Ji Shuang had history. Yin Xi was a chatterbox. He'd never liked show-offs like Ji Shuang, and the two had clashed before. He'd even accidentally ruined Ji Shuang's budding romance. There was no way Ji Shuang would agree to join. His best friend offered the frustrated Yin Xi a suggestion: esports gods were always nursing broken hearts, so why not make a female account and flirt with Ji Shuang while he was "heartbroken"? Win him over, then use the role of confidante to get him to join the team. Yin Xi: ??? What the hell kind of lousy idea is that? That night, an account named "Little Strawberry Soft Candy" added Ji Shuang. Its avatar was a pink strawberry-themed little girl. "Big bro, you're so good at this game! Could you carry me? [Heart][Heart][Heart]" Ji Shuang recognized the account at once and fell silent. What was this guy up to? Before Ji Shuang could react, he gradually lost himself in one "Big bro" after another. Ji Shuang didn't expose Yin Xi. Figuring he might as well play along, he joined Team Feiguang. Captain Yin by day: You useless jungler! Quit playing and go find yourself a jail cell! Captain Yin by night: Big bro, I really can't video chat right now. I'm shy, teehee. On a whim, Ji Shuang sent a message to tease him: "How about being my girlfriend?" Yin Xi sprayed cola all over his phone. "Damn, what a bastard. Keep dreaming!" But! For the City Friendship Tournament, for the team he'd worked so hard to put together, and for the championship he'd always dreamed of, Yin Xi deleted the curses one character at a time. Fuck it. I'll do it! "Okay, big bro [Shy][Shy][Shy]" Just you wait. The day Feiguang wins the championship is the day I settle the score with you. (Ji Shuang: You mean the day you delete your account and run away, right?) Ji Shuang x Yin Xi: a cool-headed, composed top with a high threshold for laughter x a bottom who's forever young and forever asking for trouble. Only the early part is a school story. Theme: Chase your dreams, and make the most of your youth.
