The host quickly intervened upon seeing these two about to engage in a fight.

After all, this was a live broadcast, and all the footage was being synchronized.

Such a message getting out would tarnish the image of esports.

While An Xiran despised Bai Haoxuan, he loved esports and didn’t want these dirty arguments to tarnish the sport.

He gave Bai Haoxuan a cold glance, temporarily suppressing his anger and keeping quiet.

He was determined to make Bai Haoxuan pay for his actions after the competition.

Seeing An Xiran fall silent, Bai Haoxuan sneered and added, “In any case, allowing the casual use of substitutes would be unfair to the other teams. I hope the organizers will maintain fairness and not involve too many behind-the-scenes manipulations.”

The host looked troubled.

Indeed, all the team members had been completely replaced. Could they still be called the AEG team? Even Nan Yan, the acting team captain, had only been announced the day before the competition.

Bai Haoxuan’s statement found support from several other teams.

Nan Yan’s appearance had caught them off guard, and if things continued like this, AEG might win the championship once again.

Replacing the entire team was the only weakness they could exploit, and they wanted AEG to withdraw from the competition, so the championship would fall to them.

The organizers received numerous protests and had to take them seriously. The host received a signal from backstage and announced loudly, “This matter requires discussion from all parties. Please wait for a moment, and we will provide an explanation shortly.”

An Xiran clenched his fists in frustration, his face darkening.

Was quitting the only way out?

However, the thought of AEG withdrawing from the competition weighed heavily on Little K and the others.

How devastated would their fans be?

In the venue and online, AEG’s fans were growing increasingly anxious.

Some even started protesting, shouting “AEG” in the venue.

The live chat was flooded with AEG supporters, but their cheers and support couldn’t sway the organizers from their decision.

Ten minutes later, the host tapped on his earpiece and heard something from within. His expression turned somewhat resigned as he held the microphone and addressed the audience.

“After discussions between our organizers and sponsors, it has been confirmed that AEG did indeed employ substitute players. Although it’s regrettable, fairness is paramount in sports,” the host began.

But he was abruptly interrupted mid-sentence.

“Who said they weren’t AEG members? They are interns, but it’s their first time in the limelight,” Nan Yan, who had been casually playing with her phone, said indifferently, capturing everyone’s attention.

The crowd collectively wondered why this crucial information hadn’t been disclosed earlier.

An Xiran, too, found it perplexing. Joining a team required signing contracts. Only after signing could their names appear on the official team roster. The roster would also display the date of signing.

Nan Yan’s revelation seemed aimed at ensuring AEG could continue in the competition. However, without signed contracts, this would only give their critics more ammunition.

“If you don’t believe me, you can log in to our official website and check. Their names are all there,” Nan Yan stated confidently.

Immediately, some attendees and even the organizers projected the information onto large screens for everyone to see. The audience was met with the personal details of the new members, along with their joining date.

An Xiran breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He couldn’t help but wonder how Nan Yan had managed to pull this off.

Bai Yiqi and the others were less curious. For a computer genius, adding their names to the roster was child’s play. They had witnessed Y Goddess constantly tapping away on her phone earlier, realizing she was the one responsible for this.

“It wouldn’t make sense for the competition not to allow us to use interns.”

The host received a message from backstage and nodded repeatedly. “Since they are AEG’s interns, it’s allowed.”

“In that case, Miss Nan, please take your team to the designated room,” the host continued.

Nan Yan nodded and led Bai Yiqi and the others away from the stage.

The relief of AEG’s fans, both in the venue and online, was palpable. However, it was soon replaced by worry.

Fans were concerned that even if Nan Yan was talented, carrying four interns in the upcoming matches would be challenging, and there was a risk of losing.

While other teams didn’t get their wish for AEG to withdraw, they found it more interesting to see how AEG would perform with a team of interns.

Bai Haoxuan’s expression was darkened by a deep sense of foreboding.

Then, he had another thought: making AEG lose might be even more interesting than forcing them to withdraw.

So, he decided to watch closely and see how they would lose!

“Wu Yue, find out what happened yesterday.”

Qin Lu watched the live broadcast with an indifferent expression, his eyes seemingly covered in frost. There was a subtle aura of hostility radiating from him.

He wanted to see who dared to cause trouble for his little friend.

Now that she was competing in An Xiran’s team, causing trouble for An Xiran meant causing trouble for her.

So, it was justified.

Wu Yue had been sneakily watching the live broadcast from behind Qin Lu.

Seeing Qin Lu’s current demeanor, it was evident that the young master was angry.

With a quick response, Wu Yue left to investigate.

Back to the live broadcast, the competition continued.

The other teams had assumed that Nan Yan, with four inexperienced interns, would struggle or even drag the team down.

But the reality turned out to be quite the opposite.

Bai Yiqi and his group made sure they understood what it meant to have “superstar interns.”

Although they hadn’t played Path of Legends much, being computer experts with excellent hand speed, reaction time, and memory made the game relatively easy for them.

Playing the game was a breeze compared to coding and breaching firewalls.

They could easily keep up with Nan Yan’s pace and dominate the battlefield.

Their strength was noticeably superior to that of Little K and the others, even when they were holding back.

“Are these really interns for AEG?”

“AEG’s standards are too high, aren’t they?”

“AEG is wasting such talented individuals by labeling them as interns!”

“Maybe these four members were originally secret weapons intended for use in world-class competitions, but due to certain circumstances, they were activated early?”

“I agree with the theory above!”

“Ah, I can’t help but feel that these four guys are handsome!”

“Yes, they’re handsome! Finally, we have some new boys to fangirl over!”

“Of course, in terms of looks, it’s still Sister Nan Yan for me. I’m already drowning in her beauty!”

“Ah, ah, ah! Big sister, come and mess with me!”

The live chat was filled with comments, both from fans and non-fans alike.

In the midst of it all, Nan Yan and her team’s technical skills left the audience and fans in awe.

The live audience was also shocked. Bai Haoxuan’s face was almost as ugly as if he had eaten a fly.

He hadn’t expected An Xiran to have so many aces up his sleeve!
