Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 155 A Bitter Realisation

Violeta's lowered her gaze. "Esports tournament?"

She recalled vaguely seeing a pop-up ad for the tournament on the main page when she logged into the game, but it hadn't caught her attention at the time.

In her previous life, such competitions were out of her reach. Violeta was too busy working multiple jobs to even think about entering tournaments. Thus, the idea of this competition left little impression on her back then.

Zoren chimed in, "The champion gets a boost from the official game platform and gets to shoot a live-action game MV."

Violeta's eyes widened in excitement.

After hearing Zoren's words, Violeta suddenly remembered.

In her previous life, the lead female in that MV was Hattie.

Before Hattie debuted, she had gained online popularity as a self-proclaimed game addict girl.

Violeta realised the only decent player on the opposing team at her latest game was their jungler, and she had overheard from the voice chat that it was Hattie herself.

She truly had some skills, but not enough to be unbeatable.

Violeta declared firmly, "I'm joining the tournament!"

This was an opportunity she wasn't going to let slip by. If Hattie wanted it, Violeta wanted it even more.

Only a stronger one could obtain it, and Violeta had no intention of backing down.

Jasper said, "You'll need a team. Do you have any teammates?"

Violeta paused. "Not really."
