Hu Die Lan

Chapter 819 The Superiority of a Pro Team

That introduction finished, and Team Leader He An, who had been chatting and laughing freely, opened his mouth wide, unable to reply for a moment. He certainly knew how big of an embarrassment he had caused.

Fortunately, his boasting was only expressed in his demeanor, not spoken aloud, which made it easier to salvage. He An cleared his throat, adjusted his expression, and greeted Ye Xiu calmly.

"Hello, please sit down!" Ye Xiu just smiled and didn't say much.

Both sides sat down, and then Chen Guo gave the opening remarks. Without excessive pleasantries, she went straight to the point of their visit: "I wonder what the two of you are here for?"

"Hehe." He An smiled, having put away his superior attitude when facing Ye Xiu. However, when facing Chen Guo, a hint of disdainful contempt flashed across his face, and he made sure she saw it, clearly not taking such a grassroots boss seriously at all.

"So, the great god Ye Qiu is really mixing things up in this Team Happy?" This guy actually ignored Chen Guo and spoke directly to Ye Xiu.

What's with this guy?!

Chen Guo was someone who frequently dealt with people, so how could she not notice this? He An's unconcealed contempt immediately filled her with anger. But because the guy was so polite to Ye Xiu, Chen Guo couldn't just flip the table without considering Ye Xiu's side, so she had to grit her teeth and endure it.

"Yes," Ye Xiu answered the question simply.

"What a pity," He An immediately slapped his thigh and said.

"Oh? How so?" Ye Xiu asked knowingly. The other party's attitude of looking down on people made him guess what He An was going to say.

Sure enough, this guy who looked down on grassroots people said arrogantly: "With your skills, it's such a pity to be in a place like this!"

"Hey, what are you saying?" Chen Guo couldn't hold back any longer.

He An just chuckled again, acting like an adult not bothering with a child, and ignored Chen Guo. He continued speaking to Ye Xiu: "This season's Challenger League is different from before. With a giant like Excellent Era, it's really going to be difficult. At this time, shouldn't we consider pooling our strength?"

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Ye Xiu asked.

"I've been following your performance recently. Some of your players are quite good, I believe they are all thanks to your guidance, Great God. But if I may be blunt, the players are skilled, but your current character equipment is a bit lacking, isn't it?"

"Then what do you suggest?" Ye Xiu asked.

"That's precisely what we're here for today. Our Team Wu Ji isn't a strong team, but our resources are far better than Happy's. If our two sides can join forces, it will be like adding wings to a tiger, a win-win situation. Glory e-sports is a bit like horse racing or car racing. Having a good rider or driver isn't enough, you also need a good horse or car. Great God Ye Qiu, you are currently restricted by the strength of your characters, making it difficult to break through! Why not join our Team Wu Ji? We can definitely provide resources that are far superior to what Happy can offer. Defeating Excellent Era, it's all within reach!"

He An was a talented speaker. Chen Guo, listening from the side, became a little nervous, because what he said made sense. Chen Guo couldn't provide the team with many resources; Ye Xiu had to build everything from scratch. Joining such a team would indeed be much more convenient.

The Challenger League's rules also didn't prevent them from poaching players midway. Thinking about the professional team's foundation, Chen Guo was a little apprehensive, and she forgot to get angry for a moment.

"Haha, well said," Ye Xiu nodded forcefully, expressing high praise, causing Chen Guo's heart to sink, and He An to become even more gleeful. He winked at his companion, as if to say, "See, just as I expected."

But then Ye Xiu continued, "To add wings to a tiger, why doesn't your Team Wu Ji join our Happy?"

"Hahaha, that's of course...is...huh? Great God, you're not joking, are you?" He An almost blurted it out, but fortunately, he realized halfway and got stuck in the middle.

"It's the same as adding wings to a tiger, isn't it?" Ye Xiu smiled.

"Yes, adding wings to a tiger! Hurry and join our Team Happy!" Chen Guo recovered even faster than He An. But at this moment, she actually held back her laughter and seriously tried to persuade them!

He An's expression turned a bit ugly. At this point, there was no need to continue the conversation. The other party had already expressed their rejection, and in a rather mocking way. He An really didn't understand, with Team Happy's current state, did they really think they had any future?

"Great God," He An called out again, but this time his tone was a bit tougher. In his view, their Team Wu Ji was the stronger party, and they were already lowering themselves by taking the initiative to discuss this matter. So what if he was a great god? A plucked phoenix is worse than a chicken, hadn't they heard? Without strong characters, where would the great god be?

He An felt that he was giving the other party a chance, but not only did they not cherish it, but they also ridiculed them in return, which he found unbearable. Calling out solemnly, He An's tone became earnest: "I hope you can carefully consider this issue, so you don't regret it in the future."

"Frankly speaking, that's exactly what I want to say to you," Ye Xiu said.

"You!" He An was a little angry. Ye Qiu was indeed a great god worthy of respect, but did he really think that his status as a great god was enough to make Team Wu Ji submit? Wasn't that a bit too arrogant?

But Ye Xiu looked at him very seriously: "I'm not joking, I'm very serious. Think about it carefully!"

"A week from now, you will regret today's decision," He An said, no longer planning to continue the conversation.

"A week from now, you can continue to think about this today," Ye Xiu said with a smile.

"Let's go!" He An stood up and called out to his team captain.

This poor captain, other than introducing the person in front of him as the great god Ye Qiu, didn't seem to have played any other role. They had come all the way hoping to acquire some strength, but they didn't expect it to end so quickly. The captain helplessly got up and followed He An out. From beginning to end, he didn't even get to introduce his own name.

"Goodbye, I won't see you out!" Chen Guo was feeling great right now! She didn't mind kicking them one more time. As a result, He An glanced back when he heard this, hummed, and his sense of superiority and contempt remained unchanged, except this time he included Ye Xiu as well. He didn't think there was anything wrong with him. At this moment, he felt that Ye Xiu was too arrogant, actually ignoring his win-win proposal.

"You will regret it," He An finally threw down a sentence, but used "you" instead of "you guys." This guy had never taken Chen Guo seriously from beginning to end.

He An and their unknown captain left just like that. Chen Guo breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Ye Xiu with a bright smile. Today, Ye Xiu actually seemed a bit cute to her, which was too surprising.

"Boss, what kind of expression is that?" Chen Guo's smile was so sweet that Ye Xiu felt a bit creeped out.

"That arrogant guy, you ridiculed him well, mocked him beautifully!" Chen Guo praised.

"Oh? Did I?" Ye Xiu said.

"You, you're still pretending!" Chen Guo came up and gave Ye Xiu a punch.

"No, no, I'm serious," Ye Xiu said.

"What are you serious about?" Chen Guo asked, puzzled.

"Seriously hoping they can consider joining our Team Happy," Ye Xiu said.

"How is that possible?" Chen Guo exclaimed.

Yes, although she found that guy's arrogant appearance extremely annoying, Chen Guo had to admit that in the Challenger League, such a professional team was fully qualified to be arrogant. Moreover, when facing Ye Xiu, the guy was quite obedient at first, and only became impolite after being ridiculed by Ye Xiu like that. Such a team, joining Happy? Chen Guo wouldn't even dare to dream about it.

"Anything is possible," Ye Xiu said, and was about to walk out.

"Hey, hey, what do you mean? Explain yourself!" Chen Guo quickly chased after him.

Back at the apartment, the matter of Team Wu Ji was naturally discussed with everyone.

"So, we definitely can't lose. If we lose, we'll be a laughingstock," Chen Guo encouraged everyone.

"If we lose, everything will be over. What's being a laughingstock?" Wei Chen retorted. Chen Guo's method of boosting morale was obviously not quite right. For those who participated in the Challenger League with ideals, there were things far more important than face that would prevent them from easily losing the match.

"In short, just do your best," Ye Xiu summarized, extremely concisely.

In the following days, both sides were full of energy. This week, Ye Xiu and the others didn't bother with any wild field bosses. Tang Rou, Baozi, and the others also understood why professional players who only had one match to play each week were so busy. Because to compete for the victory of each match, there were too many things the players had to actively prepare.

In the entertainment industry, there is a saying that "one minute on stage takes ten years of practice off stage," but for Glory professional players, isn't it the same? To achieve excellent results on the field, you can't do without diligent training off the field.

On Thursday, Zhan Lou Lan sent over the equipment that Ye Xiu had ordered. And in these past few days, Ye Xiu had purchased a batch of equipment through the game market, studios, and other channels. All the characters upgraded their weapons and equipment. The main task of this day was to adapt to the drastically different attributes of the characters.

On the internet, the meeting between Happy and Team Wu Ji also stirred up quite a bit of excitement. Team Wu Ji had fans of their own, and Team Happy was currently under special attention. This Challenger League match was actually receiving as much attention as a professional league!
