Jiang Yibo, a sixteen-year-old boy from Wuhan, encountered "League of Legends" during the confused period of exam-oriented education. This high school student with quick reactions but mediocre academics found his own battlefield in Summoner's Rift. From a clumsy novice to a dark horse in the street arena, he and his friend Wang Lei showed off their passion in the virtual world. However, the COVID-19 epidemic changed everything - the city was closed and quarantined, online classes were difficult, and his parents went against the grain, making him face the weight of reality for the first time. During the special "downtime period", he met Zhang Xiaojiao, a jungle girl with unique ideas, and ran in with his friends online, gradually realizing the true meaning of teamwork. The mask reunion after unblocking, the hero trial in version iterations, the difficult balance between studies and dreams... Jiang Yibo is looking for his own path between the gravity of reality and the call of the canyon. From being a "lone ranger" who was addicted to operations to being the core of the team who first got a glimpse of tactics, he gradually understood that a truly strong player must not only master the "unfair" mechanism of the version, but also learn to turn disadvantages into advantages within the rules. When the e-sports dream comes true, can this young man born in Wuhan break through the bottleneck? How will he write about his youth amid the tension between exams and love? This is the growth story of a generation of teenagers in the intertwining of virtuality and reality, and it is also a profound reflection on dreams and responsibilities.
