Chapter 114 Pearwood Team

Inside Sun Li's personal space training ground.

"Manager Tian." Sun Li stopped practicing archery, looking at the silver-haired youth on the other end of the communication.

"Wang Yi has given a definite answer," the silver-haired youth said.

"She's decided? Is she coming to our Golden Roc Team?" Sun Li asked, feeling a bit nervous. Although being a substitute still provided a good salary, participating in the Spark Cup competition would bring him attention and popularity, and the audience's tips would increase significantly.

"She explicitly rejected us," the silver-haired youth said. "Not only us, but she also rejected invitations from the other four major groups."

"Oh?" Sun Li felt relieved and curious at the same time. "Then what team did she join?"

"She said it's confidential and will be officially announced at 8 PM tonight," the silver-haired youth said. "Forget about her. You are our team's main player, our sharpshooter. We're counting on you for the Spark Cup competition."

Sun Li said confidently, "Manager Tian, just watch my performance then."

The silver-haired youth nodded and ended the communication.

"Hahaha... I knew it. With her popularity ranking in the top three on the viewing platform and her strength as the strongest goddess archer, she wouldn't be so easy to invite." Sun Li smiled triumphantly. "Everything is within my expectations."

"But, she rejected all five major groups. What team did she join?" Sun Li wondered. "At 8 PM tonight, I'll check out her live stream."

...

8 PM that evening.

Sun Li went to Wang Yi's live stream through the viewing platform.

Sitting in the stands, Sun Li was amazed to see the dense crowd. "Wang Yi's popularity is truly terrifying. Tonight, she's announcing the team she's joining, and there are already over ten million viewers in the live stream! That's what a top three streamer is like. Why is my popularity so low?"

"In terms of strength, I'm not bad either. But I just can't get my popularity up," Sun Li said, feeling envious and helpless.

It's not just about being strong; live stream popularity also requires effort.

Like Yang Qingshuo, he puts a lot of effort into managing his live stream, entertaining the audience with various jokes. In the ranking of Wang Xianggu, Yang Qingshuo is also in the top 100 in Xia Country. But he usually only has a few thousand viewers online, barely exceeding ten thousand.

Compared to Wang Yi... the difference is a thousandfold!

Sun Li's live stream popularity is much worse than Yang Qingshuo's. Mainly because his live stream is too dull, he's not good at talking, and he's not handsome enough, so naturally, he's less attractive.

"I told everyone that at 8 PM tonight, I would officially announce the team I'm joining." Wang Yi wore a custom-made cyan robe with fiery red patterns. Wang Yi smiled and pointed to the clothes on her body. "The clothes on my body are the team uniform of my current team."

"Team uniform?"

"None of the most famous teams have this uniform, right?"

"This team uniform is quite good-looking."

The audience discussed and speculated about the team's name.

Wang Yi smiled and said, "Now, let's welcome my five teammates!"

Whoosh!

Five figures appeared next to Wang Yi at the same time.

The shapely and beautiful 'Li Miaomiao', the restrained 'Xu Jingming', then the delicate Yang Qingshuo, the handsome Heng Fang, and the burly Liu Chongyuan, all wearing team uniforms.

"It's Cat Cat!"

"Ahhh, Cat Cat!" Many viewers excitedly shouted. Li Miaomiao also had over ten million fans, and they were loyal fans. Although many people were following Xu Jingming, they were mostly casual fans.

"Cat Cat is only a low-star Yaori-level (Planet-level) player. Can she also join the team?"

"It seems that substitute players can be at least Yaori-level (Planet-level)."

"That's Xu Jingming!"

"Xu Jingming was the most dazzling in the first God-level battle. But later, he gradually became mediocre. The other three, Heng Fang and Yang Qingshuo, have some fame. Who is that big guy? I've never seen him before?"

"Liu Chongyuan! Also a God-level expert, just less famous."

There was much discussion.

Wang Yi smiled and said, "Everyone must be very familiar with this one. She is my idol and also a talented singer... our Cat Cat!"

"I'm honored to be the team's manager," Li Miaomiao said to the audience with a smile. "I also work as a substitute player."

"These four are our team's main players." Wang Yi walked to the very edge of the team and quickly introduced, "This big guy is Liu Chongyuan, this handsome one is Heng Fang, this is the youngest Yang Qingshuo, and this one... is our wise and mighty captain Xu Jingming."

Xu Jingming, Yang Qingshuo, Heng Fang, and Liu Chongyuan all smiled at the audience. The most nervous one was Liu Chongyuan. He had never been on the World Martial Arts Competition stage in so many years, never been the center of attention.

Being watched by tens of millions of people at the same time, Liu Chongyuan was clearly a little nervous.

"Sister Yi is making me a little embarrassed," Xu Jingming said with a smile. "But being able to successfully invite Sister Yi to join our Pearwood Team before the Spark Cup competition registration makes our entire team very happy."

"I should be thanking Captain, thanking Captain for the invitation," Wang Yi said. She was thirty-five years old this year, the oldest in the team. Strictly speaking, Liu Chongyuan was the same age as her, but Liu Chongyuan's birthday was in December, and Sister Yi's birthday was in January.

"Thank you, Sister Yi, for calling me the most handsome in the team," Heng Fang said with a smile. "In future battles, I will definitely kill the enemies first, so they can't threaten Sister Yi."

"I will also protect Sister Yi," Liu Chongyuan said.

"Leave the enemy assassins to me," Yang Qingshuo said.

...

While the team members were chatting, among the countless viewers in the stands, there were also many insightful people.

"Wang Yi joined Xu Jingming's team, interesting." A tall, short-haired woman watched this scene and stood up.

"We invited her, but she didn't want to join. In the end, she chose a team that revolves around her," Sun Yuting also stood up. "Sister Qing, we also have A Yuan on our team now. I believe A Yuan will be even better than Wang Yi in the future."

"I'm still a bit behind Sister Yi," A Yuan was a baby-faced girl.

If Wang Yi was the big sister of the national team, after all, she had won three Olympic archery championships. Then A Yuan was the rising star. She had just won the Olympic archery championship last year at the age of 17 and was also the youngest in the team.

"The important thing is, we have a master." Dai Xiaoqing also stood up. She admired her older brother Xu Jingming the most, and also admired her master Zhang Qing.

Master Zhang Qing, the most legendary figure in the women's martial arts world!

...

"So she chose Jingming's team?" The short and fat Tie Lianyung looked at this scene. As one of the three great martial arts legends of Xia Country, Liu Hai and Lei Yunfang had now become myths. In the global ranking of all humans, they were in the top five, only him... So far, even staying in the top five in the country was a struggle.

In the country, Liu Hai, Lei Yunfang, and Zhou Yi were definitely in the top three! Even Zhang Qing and Xiong Tianshan, many people thought, were stronger than him, Tie Lianyung.

Tie Lianyung had always been holding back his anger.

"I will prove that I am qualified to be on par with Master Liu Hai and Lei Yunfang." Tie Lianyung stood up and left alone.

...

"Haha, Lao Xu, your son is quite capable. He was able to invite this strongest goddess archer of Xia Country," 'Dai Tongda', a handsome middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to Dai Xiaoqing, said with a smile.

"She's also your disciple." After Xu Hong's body evolved, he also turned into a middle-aged man, truly resembling a fierce tiger. After practicing the Tiger Pounce for forty years, the intent of the fierce tiger had long been ingrained in his bones.

Xu Hong nodded. "With Wang Yi, Jingming's team is considered complete. They can go further in the Spark Cup competition."

"Let's go, hurry up and train." Dai Tongda stood up. "We old guys have to train hard. If we run into Jingming, Xiaoqing, and the others in the Spark Cup competition and get beaten by these young people, it will be embarrassing."

"Yes, we have to let these young people know that old ginger is spicier." Xu Hong also stood up. This pair of old buddies also left to seize the time to train.
