Silas was just about to ask Maeve what she meant.
A video suddenly popped up on the giant LED screen in the arena.
The footage showed Luke cornering Maeve in an empty hallway, offering her a fortune to leave Team MRX.
The video quality was crystal clear.
Every single word they exchanged was broadcasted perfectly.
"How much will it take for you to join my team? Name your price. Is a million dollars enough?"
The sudden twist left the two hosts completely stunned.
The hundreds of thousands of viewers in the live stream immediately started spamming question marks.
An after-credits scene?
Seeing his own face displayed on the big screen in such a context, the smile vanished from Luke's face.
Silas shot Maeve a bewildered look and whispered, "What's going on?"
Maeve replied, "Just grab some popcorn and watch the show."
Because the incident happened so abruptly, the tech crew didn't react in time, leaving the broadcast running.
On the big screen, Maeve righteously rejected Luke's offer.
In response, Luke flew into a rage, continuously upping the price, bragging that his team was full of elites.
In the video, Maeve looked at him with sheer disdain.
"Those so-called elites you mentioned—you poached them all from other teams using dirty tactics, didn't you?"
"Like Team MRX's jungler Finn Chase, Team Nemesis's top laner Eagle, and Team Hall of Fame's support Headwind."
"Associating with backstabbing traitors who sell out for money would really lower my value."
The teams whose players had been poached felt a surge of righteous indignation watching this.
Then came Luke's utterly shameless response.
"As long as we win the championship, the methods and process don't matter."
Hearing this, the internet erupted, questioning Luke's entire moral character.
In the video, Maeve voiced the exact condemnation the viewers were feeling.
"What you're doing is maliciously destroying the rules of the game."
