Xiao Shiqin finished speaking, and Cui Li and Chen Yehui exchanged glances involuntarily.

Neither of them were fools, and they immediately realized the cleverness of Xiao Shiqin's arrangement, as well as the drawbacks of their previous actions against Ye Qiu: they always wanted to beat Ye Qiu to death with one blow.

It was as if they wanted to compete in the game, and immediately thought of making Ye Qiu and the others gain nothing. Was it really necessary to do so? After listening to Xiao Shiqin, they both realized that it was completely unnecessary to put in so much effort.

Xiao Shiqin noticed the changes in their expressions, but he still said politely, "What do you two think of my suggestion?"

"Very good." Cui Li nodded first, and then said to Chen Yehui, "President Chen, can you cooperate with this?"

"Okay." Chen Yehui didn't raise any more objections this time. The previous argument with Xiao Shiqin had passed silently.

"I will do my best." Xiao Shiqin smiled.

"Then I'll go arrange the manpower now." Chen Yehui greeted the two of them and left first.

Cui Li then sighed in his heart that Xiao Shiqin was worth more than his price. After some encouragement and praise, the next thing to deal with was naturally the mood of the team members.

Three 10-man dungeons, except for the first one where they succeeded in a sneak attack, the next two were actually completed by Happy ahead of them, and the gap in scores was quite large, which made them feel very frustrated. At this time, they were sulking in the training room, and no one was talking. Cui Li came with Xiao Shiqin. Before he saw the team members, he first saw Su Mucheng gnawing on a big pear outside the training room.

They didn't even call Su Mucheng to brush the dungeon record, but now she appeared here. Was she here to laugh at them?

Cui Li didn't pay much attention to her, and just nodded as a greeting. Xiao Shiqin, who was behind him, stopped and chatted with Su Mucheng.

"What are you doing here?"

"Eating a pear."

"What are you doing eating a pear here?"

"They don't allow eating inside!"

Xiao Shiqin was speechless. He knew he wasn't asking that, but she insisted on giving such a superficial answer. Was she deliberately teasing him? Xiao Shiqin had basically learned about Su Mucheng's situation from the club. He knew that she would definitely leave after this season, and he felt very sorry for her. However, Excellent Era also stated that they would definitely find a player who was no worse than Su Mucheng to fill the position after she left, which put Xiao Shiqin at ease. After all, he didn't need a beauty to please his eyes, but a strong teammate to work hard with. It didn't matter whether it was Su Mucheng or someone else.

"What are you guys busy with?" Then it was Su Mucheng's turn to ask, while gnawing on the pear and poking her head into the training room.

"We're brushing dungeons!" Xiao Shiqin said. He didn't notify Su Mucheng about this matter, and he didn't know if she knew about it, but if she had been playing Glory just now, she could probably tell.

"Oh, how's the brushing going?" Su Mucheng asked.

"Are you asking knowingly?" Xiao Shiqin said.

"Yeah!" Su Mucheng nodded with a smile.

"I'm not talking to you..." Xiao Shiqin was completely speechless and went into the room. Su Mucheng, on the other hand, hadn't finished her pear and was still leaning against the door. According to Excellent Era's rules, eating snacks was not allowed in the training room. After Ye Qiu left, a smoking ban was quickly implemented.

In the room, Cui Li, who had personally arrived, had already started speaking, bringing with him the club's commendation.

"Everyone played very well." Cui Li's smile looked particularly sincere, so sincere that the Excellent Era players were confused.

This was good? They couldn't even beat Happy's team in a mere ten-man team, and this was called good?

"We just made a move, forcing Happy to go all out. Now they can't keep brushing their own records back and forth to earn rewards like before. Very good." Cui Li had an expression of praise, while the Excellent Era players continued to be in a daze. Cui Li could also feel uneasy in his heart: Was his blatant praise a bit too much?

But there was no way, the words had already been said, so he could only make the best of it and continue to praise with a straight face: "Next, we don't have anything to do. Let Happy compete with their own full-strength record! Our next time should be spent on training and competition. These things are ten thousand times more important than brushing dungeon records. When we have time next time, everyone can brush it together again, and I hope we can put great pressure on Happy like today."

Amidst the mutual glances, Cui Li ended his speech. Seeing that there was almost no response, he couldn't hold the scene anymore. After a quick look at the time: "Oh, it's almost time for training, right? Then I won't bother everyone and take my leave first."

Cui Li turned around and gave Xiao Shiqin a wink, naturally signaling him to continue to appease them. Then he went out, and Su Mucheng was still gnawing on her pear. Cui Li walked past her as if he didn't see her and left.

"Well... then everyone, let's train..." Xiao Shiqin was also sweating profusely now. This Manager Cui was really bold. He came up without asking the reason or laying the groundwork, and directly turned 180 degrees to give a burst of flattery, making everyone unable to find their way!

But Xiao Shiqin had to take over this stall, and immediately said with a relaxed and happy expression: "How is it? Surprised?"

Everyone nodded like crazy, it was really too surprising.

"Haha, me too! I was originally planning to apply to see if we could move more time to specialize in dungeons, because I think we are indeed far less familiar with these new dungeons than Happy. But Manager Cui is already very satisfied with our current results. Do you know why?" Xiao Shiqin said.

Some people shook their heads, while others remained silent.

"Because from the beginning, there was no need to win or lose here. We just needed to come and leave a score. Because our score is enough to restrain Happy. As for winning or losing, we only need to hand it over to the arena. Only the victory or defeat in the arena is worth our attention."

As Xiao Shiqin spoke, he also paid attention to the expressions of the players, and then he saw that his words had finally worked. Xiao Shiqin pointed out the reason why they hadn't beaten Happy in his words; and then, it was an attitude that it wasn't that they didn't do it, but that it wasn't worth doing at all. Now everyone finally changed from the initial confusion when Cui Li praised them wildly to a relieved look.

"So that's how it is," someone said.

"Of course, that's how it is." Xiao Shiqin smiled, "The dungeon game is over, everyone prepare for training!"

"Okay!" Everyone responded and went back to their computers to prepare for training. At this time, Su Mucheng also finished her big pear and came in.

"Not bad!" Su Mucheng said to Xiao Shiqin.

"Don't make trouble!" Xiao Shiqin just breathed a sigh of relief and became nervous again.

"You're feeling guilty." Su Mucheng smiled, "Are you under a lot of pressure?"

"Of course, the opponent is not simple at all," Xiao Shiqin said.

"Then what are your next plans?" Su Mucheng asked.

"Huh?" Xiao Shiqin's expression was slightly alert. Based on Su Mucheng's current attitude towards Excellent Era, anyone would suspect her position. Throwing the game on the field? Xiao Shiqin believed that Su Mucheng would not do that, but outside the arena, it was hard to say.

"Looks like you really have big plans," Su Mucheng said.

"Not really." Xiao Shiqin shook his head, "Actually, I think what you said at the meeting that day was very good. If everyone could look at the problem from this level, everything would be simple. It's just a pity that Ye Qiu's influence on Excellent Era is too deep, which makes them completely unable to face it with a normal heart!"

"Actually, it's not a matter of influence," Su Mucheng said.

"Huh?"

"It's that they have a guilty conscience," Su Mucheng said.

"..."

"So they are eager to use Ye Qiu's failure to prove themselves and cover up their mistakes. They are not afraid of losing, but they are afraid of losing to Ye Qiu, too afraid. Because they have a knot in their hearts," Su Mucheng said.

"..."

"Let's train!" Su Mucheng didn't say anything more, returned to her position, and started her daily training content as usual.

Xiao Shiqin stared at her blankly, but Su Mucheng didn't look at him again. Instead, Sun Xiang left his seat and came to Xiao Shiqin again.

"Captain Sun." Xiao Shiqin greeted him, with particularly complex emotions in his voice. Sun Xiang had always been their captain, but now in the team, Xiao Shiqin was more like a captain. Sun Xiang's captain was somewhat nominal.

But even so, the two sides got along very harmoniously. Not only did Sun Xiang not mind this, but he seemed very satisfied. Xiao Shiqin sometimes really couldn't figure out what this genius, who seemed particularly arrogant to outsiders, was thinking. How could a proud person tolerate his captain's position being virtually hollowed out?

"Hey!" Sun Xiang said.

"What?"

"Are you really not brushing the dungeon anymore?" Sun Xiang asked.

"That's right!" Xiao Shiqin said.

Sun Xiang frowned, with a look of unwillingness.

"Our energy should be spent as much as possible on competitions and training! Dungeons are just small things. Whenever we have time, are bored, or need us to restrain them like this, we will go again," Xiao Shiqin said.

"Yeah, yeah, just small things." Sun Xiang nodded, but then suddenly paused, as if he had discovered something.

"Small things? Xiao Shiqin? Hahahaha!" Sun Xiang suddenly pointed at Xiao Shiqin and laughed wildly.

Damn it, you really pay attention to a lot! Xiao Shiqin almost thought that Sun Xiang had realized something, but he just noticed such a homophonic sound. (Xiao Shiqin's name sounds like "small things" in Chinese).

"Small things, small things!"

So, this matter ended with Xiao Shiqin getting an extra nickname. But Xiao Shiqin was still the vice-captain, how many people dared to call him nicknames casually? Only Sun Xiang, who didn't care about anything, since that day, Xiao Shiqin became "Small Things" in his mouth.

"Hehe, Small Things..." Even Su Mucheng sometimes didn't mind calling this nickname given by the person she didn't like.

Xiao Shiqin was in tears.
