Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
All the parents looked at Lex at this moment.
They were also waiting for his answer.
“You must have a future in your hearts. You feel that playing video games has no future.”
“However, our school’s esports is not only about playing video games, but it’s also a sport.”
“Just like playing basketball, you can become a professional esports player.”
Lex explained.
“A professional esports player?”
This made the parents even more confused.
“Is esports that good?”
Edward’s father was very skeptical.
Besides wasting time and money, he couldn’t think of any benefits from playing video games.
“Esports focuses on the ability to think, react, coordinate the mind and limbs, to see the big picture, to have willpower, and to be a team player.”
“As for some netizens, they can gain an advantage just by charging money. This is the biggest difference between esports and other online games.”
“You are only confusing gaming and esports.”
“You have all seen the scene just now. Esports is not completely useless. You can naturally judge it.”
Lex recounted all the advantages of e-sports.
After hearing his words, all the parents fell silent.
They were thinking if e-sports was really as good as what Lex said.
After all, before this, they did not even know the concept of e-sports.
In fact, the entire world did not even know the concept of e-sports.
Kasage University was the first to establish the e-sports major.
“I also know the worries in your hearts. After all, this major is hard to accept.”
“Your children are now equivalent to starting a business.”
“As long as they succeed in starting a business, they will be able to create a new era.”
“And they will also become the guides of this era.”
“As for how they decide, that will all depend on you.”
“Now, you can make your children better than they are now. I respect your choice.”
After Lex finished speaking, he left the meeting room.
He had already finished speaking.
The rest would depend on the parents’ decisions.
At the same time, he knew that the term ‘esports’ would definitely become popular.
The people who truly loved esports games were not just the few dozen people at Kasage University.
There were no less than ten million people who had given up on their dreams because of society’s disapproval.
One could imagine how many people would support esports if it became popular?
After Lex left, the parents were caught in a dilemma.
Esports was a major that was difficult for them to accept.
However, they could see the changes in their children.
If they chose to stop it, the children would return to their previous state.
They might as well be like this. At the very least, they could see confidence and ambition on their faces.
This matter was also related to the children’s future. It was a very difficult decision for the parents to make.
Because this was a path that no one had walked before.
They also didn’t think that their children could do it.
They didn’t do well in the college entrance exam, let alone creating an era?
At this time, Monica walked in.
“Parents, you can go and see your children now.”
This kind of important life event wasn’t something that parents could decide on their own.

They still had to listen to the children’s choices.
Because this was also their life, they had the right to make their own choices.
Soon, the parents arrived at the esports class.
The children who were in the middle of a heated discussion stopped.
They suddenly saw their parents arrive and were a little surprised.

“Mom and dad?”
“Why are you here?”
Edward was the first to walk in front of his parents.
The other students did the same.
Seeing so many parents, Edward knew what it was. He guessed why his parents were here.
“Dad, Mom, are you here to cause trouble for the school because of the video?”
Edward had an impression of the video.
But because of the esports class, he did not have the energy to pay attention to it.
The students also didn’t expect it to alarm their parents.
At this time, they were also worried.
The parents had found the school.
Would it affect the esports class after they finally found the goal?
Edward didn’t want this to end.
Esports was their dream, and it was possible for their dream to come true.
They had the motivation.
If their dreams were to be shattered right here, they would definitely have to return to their muddled lives.
“Son, do you really think that you can go on like that forever?”
Edward’s father asked his son seriously.
He could still maintain his rationality and ask for Edward’s opinion.
He knew that if he were to forcefully decide on this matter, he would only destroy his own child.
“Dad, in the past few years, I’ve been living in a daze.”
“In the game, I can obtain happiness, but I can’t get your support.”
“It’s the esports major that gave me a goal, letting me know what I should do.”
“Although this path is hard to walk, and I might even be looked down upon by everyone, I still decided to walk down it myself.”
“Even if in the end, I might fail, I won’t regret it
“Because in this world, I’ve been here, I’ve fought, so I won’t regret it!”
Edward’s gaze was very determined.
From his gaze, one could see a kind of persistence.
One could see that he had a sincere heart to pursue his dream.
“Alright, I’ll support you!”
Edward’s father said happily.
He was happy that his son could find his own goal.
Everyone had their own dreams.
Edward’s father was the same.
But the reality of life made him give up.
He had no reason to stop his son from realizing his dream.
“Thank you for your support, Father!”
To be able to get his father’s support, Edward was very touched. His eyes were a little red and he wanted to cry.
Ever since he was young, this was the first time he had received his father’s support.
“Dad, I want to go down and prove that I’m not a useless person!”
