Chapter 51 – Cheng Wei
Before going to New York, Bai Xuan"s return trip had been set for December. This time he didn"t come back with Li Cangyu. He took advantage of Li Cangyu"s two day return to China and took his luggage to travel outside.
Xie Shurong couldn"t go to eat Bai Xuan"s cooking. He sighed at the half cooked steak at the team"s canteen. He suddenly missed Chef Bai and he couldn"t eat the Western food. Where was Vice-Captain Bai? Come back soon. He bought a lot of merchandise!
***
In the few days where Li Cangyu temporarily left the game, the speed of the major guilds in the new district shot up.
That evening, Li Cangyu went with Old Zhang and Xiao Gu to the Dragon Warriors" training room and logged into the brand new computers.
On his friends list, Time Machine was almost level 60 and there was a guild challenge event on Sat.u.r.day night. Li Cangyu sent a private message to him: [President, I won"t join you in this instance. You play on your own. I have guild members on my side who I need to guide through the instance.]
The busy Time Machine replied: [Okay Brother Fish, I won"t bother you if you are busy!]
At first, the join team was because the Food Squad had only six people who were level 50. Now there were so many people at level 50 that they could play alone.
The Food Squad was very popular in the new district. It was soon full after being upgraded to a level 3 guild. Li Cangyu was very busy these days and didn"t have much time to manage the guild. Fortunately, the Small Elf, Small Hunter, Small Archer trio that had been added to the guild took the initiative to manage the instance. Li Cangyu handed it over to them but hadn"t expected the three guys to organize it so well.
It was currently six in the evening. Li Cangyu opened the guild channel and saw that these three people were actively organizing teams for instances.
Small Elf: [Three outputs are still needed for Demon Forest. Quickly send a private message!]
Small Hunter: [Anyone level 50 and above, go to the eastern area of Zeya Castle to gain experience. Right click on me to enter the party!]
Small Archer: [Anyone who hasn"t reach level 45 yet, several teams are being formed for Frost Temple. I will distribute you."
[…]
The guild channel was very lively and everyone was actively leveling.
Li Cangyu felt very thankful when he saw this scene.
In fact, guild management wasn"t something he needed to do in person. He could find a few effective a.s.sistants and share these tasks. These three cla.s.smates organized the instances well, relieving his worries.
Li Cangyu typed in the guild channel: [I will challenge the guild instance at 8 o"clock tonight. At 7:30, I will pay attention to anyone level 50 or above and will bring you to fight.]
[President is here!]
[Okay President! Wait 10 minutes for me. I will be level 50 by then!]
[President, I am also level 50. Take me along!]
The guild channel was suddenly jubilant.
Then he suddenly received a message in his private chat. [You haven"t been online for two days. Did President go somewhere?]
It was from Steamed Ba.s.s.
Li Cangyu replied: [Yes, I had something to do.]
Steamed Ba.s.s: [Aren"t you abroad? You are online at 6 o"clock. Isn"t this early?]
Li Cangyu didn"t explain and only typed a single word. [Hrmm.]
He suddenly felt that this Steamed Ba.s.s was a big strange. It was as if Steamed Ba.s.s was very concerned about him?
Why did he want to know where the president went? Was this person the undercover of another guild?
Li Cangyu thought with some doubts.
Steamed Ba.s.s sent another message. [How are you going to play tonight"s instance?]
Li Cangyu: [Go as a group. Time doesn"t matter. The people of our guild will play it our own way.]
***
At 7:30 in the evening, Li Cangyu counted the people in the guild list and found there were exactly 60 people who reached level 50. He split the group into two. Zhang Jueming would lead one while he led the other.
The guild challenge started on time every Wednesday and Sat.u.r.day at 8 o"clock. The guilds will be ranked in the order of the instance clearance. The first prize received the most rewards and the golden advertis.e.m.e.nt. From second place onward, the rewards decreased gradually.
Li Cangyu"s goal wasn"t the rankings. After all, it was impossible with a group of newcomers. It was better to familiarize them with playing the instance and gain some experience, gold coins and construction points. Moreover, this time he would familiarize them with the strategy and wouldn"t need to lead the team himself in the future. Other people in the group could also lead the team.
The fixed elites of the big guilds would naturally play the challenge instance very quickly. In addition, their levels had improved in the past few days. The Time Guild successfully pa.s.sed the instance at 8:20 and won first place again. Flying Feathers was the second to pa.s.s at 8:25 while Wind Colour took third. The top 10 were basically well-known large guilds.
The two Food Squad groups led by Li Cangyu and Zhang Jueming opened the guild instance at 8 o"clock. There were too many newcomers in the guild and the progress was relatively slow. They played from 8 o"clock to 9:30 and their ranking had fallen to 50.
***
The president of Flying Feathers looked at the list and couldn"t help wondering, "Why is the ranking of Food Squad so low?"
An undercover replied: [The president personally led the team and taught them step by step. There were too many newcomers in the group so they played relatively slowly.
Flying Feather Liangshan immediately understood.
Last time, Su Guangmo had come online to PK with Blossoming Tree. Flying Feathers Liangshan and several other management members had been watching. Later, Su Guangmo sent a message to them. [Love to Eat Braised Fish is Old Cat while Blossoming Tree is my younger brother, Xie Shurong. The priest healer is probably Cat G.o.d"s old partner, White Fox. The ident.i.ties of the other people are unclear so follow up on that.]
Flying Feather Liangshan jaw dropped open!
He went to a.s.sa.s.sinate these great G.o.ds…
What if Cat G.o.d came to kill them? Flying Feather Liangshan was worried to death.
To his surprise, Cat G.o.d didn"t retaliate against the Flying Feathers Guild. Flying Feathers Liangshan had leveled up but he was terrified for two days., Then he found that Cat G.o.d seemed to have forgotten this matter and his heart recovered.
Yes! With Cat G.o.d"s level, how could he care about these lowly people?
These days the Flying Feathers Guild felt very comfortable. They didn"t go to Cat G.o.d to die but Flying Feathers Liangshan still paid attention to the movements of the Food Squad. The Food Squad was ranked 50th in the guild activity because Cat G.o.d brought a group of newbies and taught them step by step, delaying the time.
Cat G.o.d was very sensible. At the beginning, he teamed up with Time to win the first golden advertis.e.m.e.nt and attracted a large number of players to join the guild. The second time, he personally brought the members to play the instance, making the guild lively and united. As long as the new people had a sense of belonging to the guild, the president didn"t need to be in charge in the future. Everyone would consciously take the task of building the guild and Food Squad would be upgraded to a level 4 or 5 guild.
Sure enough, the great G.o.d was thinking long term and his means of attracting people"s hearts were also very clever!
It was shameful compared to himself, who became angry and tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate Cat G.o.d after losing once.
Flying Feathers Liangshan pondered a long time before starting to worry again. What should he do for tomorrow"s event?
***
The Time Guild"s office.
“We took first place in the guild challenge two times in a row. Flying Feathers Liangshan"s face must be swollen!" Time Machine spoke in a very good mood.
A slightly hoa.r.s.e voice was suddenly heard behind him. "Whose face is swollen?"
Time Machine turned back and found Vice-Captain Cheng Wei entering with a smile, followed by the helpless looking Tan s.h.i.tian.
After the match last time with the Wind Colour team, Cheng Wei was seriously ill and had a high fever of 39 degrees. Captain Tan took care of him all night and directly brought him to the hospital the next day. Cheng Wei had an IV stuck in him for several days.
Today, Cheng Wei was probably still sick but he looked rosy and energetic.
Time Machine stood up and said, "Captain Tan, Vice-Captain Cheng, why did you come?"
He had entered Time with old Captain Xu Luo and had more seniority than Cheng and Tan. He had watched these two youngsters grow up. Tan s.h.i.tian respected him very much and often came here in his leisurely time.
It was just that today, Cheng Wei was the one determined to come over.
Tan s.h.i.tian looked helplessly at Cheng Wei and said, "He couldn"t sit still when he was sick. He saw that the lights were still on at the guild office and ran to see."
"You locked me up all day. I"m not a prisoner." Cheng Wei protested. "It is just a small cold. Why do you want to exaggerate it?"
"Isn"t it because I"m afraid of your cold getting worse?" Tan s.h.i.tian habitually rubbed Cheng Wei"s head and softly coaxed him. "You should go back to sleep. Your voice is so hoa.r.s.e and it obviously isn"t good. How can you run out at night and catch a cold?"
"I"m fine!" Cheng Wei stared at him before looking back at the president. "President, Miracle has a legion defense every Sunday right? What is the plan for tomorrow"s event? Can I go and watch?"
The legion defense was the largest activity in Miracle.
Once the event opened, there would be opposing teams guarding the Bright G.o.ddess and Dark G.o.ddess. Players were free to choose the side they wanted to join. The two sides would compete in a large venue that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. Regardless of winning or losing, rich rewards could be gained.
The legion defense campaign was started in the first year Miracle opened. The ability to maintain it for so many years proved the popularity of the event. Many Miracle professional players, even if they usually didn"t go online, would log in just to watch the weekend legion battles.
The Bright G.o.ddess and Dark G.o.ddess were world cla.s.s bosses in Miracle, which could be said to be the most powerful bosses. The former wore a white sparkling dress and had six angel wings on her back, looking like a holy angel. The latter"s clothing was mainly black and red. She had a graceful figure, long curls that went down to the waist and had six demon wings on her back.
The legion defense war was an activity where players of both camps protected their G.o.ddess.
Cheng Wei especially liked this excitement. This type of large-scale defense battle involved tens of thousands of people was his favorite.
However, he was currently still ill…
Time Machine looked at the captain. Tan s.h.i.tian nodded to express his permission. Then Time Machine said with a smile, "Since the vice-captain wants to go see the fun, I have many side accounts here. You can casually pick one."
Cheng Wei cried out happily, "Thank you president! Give me a white magician account."
He quickly picked an account and tested it by logging on, excitement filling his face.
It was no wonder. This lively guy had been trapped by Tan s.h.i.tian for a few days. He almost died from frustration and flew to the Time Guild at 8 o"clock in the evening.
"We have always joined the camp of the Bright G.o.ddess. Will you be commanding this time?" Cheng Wei asked.
Time Machine hesitated for a moment before saying, "This might not necessarily be the case."
He had commanded a defense war before but after doing the instance with Love to Eat Braised Fish, he felt that he was a child compared to Brother Fish.
Therefore, wouldn"t it be better to give command of this defense war to Love to Eat Braised Fish?
Tan s.h.i.tian heard this and was puzzled. "You won"t be commanding?"
"Yes." Time Machine explained, "In the first legion defense of the new district, the big guilds in the same camp will usually discuss the selection of a leader before rotating it. However, this district is a bit different. Recently, there is a relatively strong commander in the new district. I think it would be good to let him try leading the defense."
"A strong commander?" Cheng Wei asked curiously, "Is he better than you?"
"This…" Time Machine coughed with shame. "To be honest, this person"s awareness is truly better than mine."
The president was a good person and didn"t want to deny that there were people stronger than himself. After all, he was aware of his own level.
Tan s.h.i.tian asked, "What"s the situation with this man?"
"I don"t know either. Time Machine scratched his head and said, "I tried to pull him into the Time Guild but he didn"t want to. He built a guild in the new district called Food Squad and it developed very quickly."
Tan s.h.i.tian thought for a moment before saying, "Maybe the news of Miracle"s World Compet.i.tion blew many masters out of the water. Many people from the old districts probably ran to the new district to play side accounts. The name of the Food Squad sounds like it is a casual guild for playing instances."
Captain Tan"s a.n.a.lysis was very reasonable. Many masters built their own guild because after reaching full level, they would focus on instances. A casual guild would play instances together and gain equipment, pa.s.sing the days leisurely and easily.
However, Time Machine felt that Love to Eat Braised Fish shouldn"t be building a casual guild. His goal should be a compet.i.tive guild. Once he reached full level, he would go the arena. After all, he had a good level of awareness. In the bounty mission, he destroyed two guilds and his PK level was also first cla.s.s.
According to Luo Xiaoluo, he seemed to know the vice-captain?
Time Machine thought of this and said, "By the way, he seems to know Vice-Captain."
"Ah?" Cheng Wei looked up doubtfully. "What"s his name? What type of cla.s.s is he playing?"
"His name is Love to Eat Braised Fish and he plays an elf summoner."
"…" Cheng Wei froze for a moment. Surprise obviously appeared on his face before he excitedly said, "Quickly! Where is he? Tell me quickly! I"m going to meet him!"
Cheng Wei was so excited that he almost jumped up. A name instantly flashed in Tan s.h.i.tian"s brain. He walked to the computer next to Cheng Wei, sitting down and saying to the president. "Can you call this person to the voice room?"
Time Machine noticed that things weren"t simple. He immediately said, "Yes, we are an allied guild in the online game. I will call him here."
Cheng Wei said, "Open the sound quickly, open it! I want to hear this person"s voice!"

Chapter 52 – Conflict
Li Cangyu finished taking the guild team to challenge the instance. The level 3 guild reached 50% construction points. In a few days, it would be promoted to a level 4 guild. This development momentum was very good.
The addition of the three students helped Li Cangyu very much. Li Cangyu set up the trip as vice presidents and let them help with the guild.
Small Elf said with excitement, "President, rest a.s.sured that we will manage the instance team well!"
Li Cangyu ordered, "Please take everyone to level. Wait until we reach full level and then we will go play the difficult instances. Then organize some people who like PK to go the arena. If there is anyone with a good awareness when playing the instance, you can also recommend them to me."
Small Elf cried out, "Okay, no problem! I will organize everyone to quickly go level!"
Li Cangyu properly arranged the management of the group and then a private chat message from Time Machine popped up. [Brother Fish? Can you go to the voice channel? I have something I want to discuss with you.]
Li Cangyu asked: [Is it about tomorrow"s legion defense?]
Once the legion defense was opened every Sunday, all online players were free to join the camp of the Bright G.o.ddess or the Dark G.o.ddess. Players could go alone when choosing a camp or they could register as a team or guild.
Many big guilds in the game had a favoured camp. For example, Time always chose the Bright Legion while Wind Colour would generally join the Dark Legion.
The president of Time came to find him so Li Cangyu"s first thought was about the legion defense.
In fact, Tan s.h.i.tian and Cheng Wei were sitting next to him and wanting to hear Love to Eat Braised Fish chat in the voice channel. Time Machine had to push it. [It is about the legion defense. Brother Fish should be joining the Bright Legion right? I want to discuss with you in advance how to command it tomorrow.]
[Okay, I will go find you.] Li Cangyu typed back.
[Then come to this voice room to discuss it.] Time Machine was happy and immediately sent the voice room number and pa.s.sword.
Li Cangyu entered the pa.s.sword and went in. He saw that Time Machine was waiting for him time. Time Machine immediately asked, "Brother Fish? will you direct tomorrow"s legion war? I think that if you are directing, the Bright Legion will definitely win!"
"That isn"t necessarily the case." Li Cangyu opened his mouth. "There are three big guilds on the side of the Dark G.o.ddess. Wind Colour, Ghost Spirits and Pure Cleansing. The black magicians, blood kin a.s.sa.s.sins and psychics will have an advantage in a chaotic situation."
Cheng Wei jumped up excitedly the moment he heard this voice. "Cat G.o.d, Cat G.o.d! It is Cat G.o.d!"
"…" Li Cangyu was almost deafened by him.
Tan s.h.i.tian looked helplessly at this guy who suddenly jumped out of his seat. How excited was he? If Cheng Wei could enter the network cable, he wouldn"t hesitate to crawl along the network cable to the other end of the computer.
Cheng Wei shouted excitedly before grabbing Time Machine"s headset and saying to the other person, "Cat G.o.d, is it really you?"
Li Cangyu helplessly rubbed his ears. "Who are you?"
Cheng Wei explained, "I am Cheng Wei! Cheng Wei! Cheng Wei of the Time team!"
Li Cangyu asked, "Who is Cheng Wei?"
Cheng Wei was stunned.
Tan s.h.i.tian looked at his appearance and couldn"t help patting his head with sympathy. Stupid, Cat G.o.d was obviously teasing him but he took it so seriously.
Cheng Wei seemed to realize as he smiled and said, "Don"t joke around Cat G.o.d. Why are you in Miracle"s new district? I heard that the Canglan team disbanded the other day. I messaged you but you didn"t reply. I was so worried about you!"
Xiao Cheng"s simple and direct care made Li Cangyu"s heart feel warm.
He remembered the Q number that he hadn"t logged into for a long time and spoke apologetically, "I went abroad after Canglan disbanded. I didn"t log into the previous Q number that I used and didn"t see your message."
He had two Q numbers. After leaving Miracle, the previous Q number wasn"t very useful. He naturally wouldn"t reply if Cheng Wei sent him a message.
“Oh, that"s it!" Cheng Wei didn"t mind. He was just happy that Cat G.o.d was here. "Then what are you doing in Miracle"s new district?"
"I am forming a team to return to Miracle." Li Cangyu stated.
"Ahhh, really?" Cheng Wei jumped up again excitedly. "You are returning to Miracle?"
"…Yes." Li Cangyu replied helplessly.
Cheng Wei, his head was very simple. The moment he thought about what to say, it would emerge. In particular, his speed of talking was as fast as a machine gun when he was angrily swearing. Didn"t Cheng Wei have a cold right now? His voice was so hoa.r.s.e yet he didn"t know how to take care of it. Shouting so loudly, didn"t his throat hurt?
At this time, Cheng Wei didn"t pay any attention to his throat hurting. He heard Cat G.o.d saying that he would return to Miracle and was so happy he almost burst into tears.
Cat G.o.d didn"t give up! Cat G.o.d was really courageous!
He was back! He was finally back!
Cheng Wei didn"t know how to describe this feeling.
There wasn"t a formal acceptance as a teacher but Cat G.o.d had always been the most respected person in Cheng Wei"s heart.
After leaving Miracle for a few years, Cat G.o.d had finally returned. Cheng Wei couldn"t wait to jump on Cat G.o.d, excitedly hugging him and saying, "Welcome back! It is nice to have you back!"
However, he couldn"t see Cat G.o.d and could only jump around.
Tan s.h.i.tian saw Cheng Wei jumping up and down and couldn"t help laughing.
He looked just like a furry kitten. He really was Cat G.o.d"s apprentice. Both of them were cats. Cat G.o.d was a mature and steady big black cat while Cheng Wei was a small white cat that almost moved around.
Tan s.h.i.tian came up with the picture of the big black cat and small white cat and became inspired. He decided to write a paragraph on Weibo later.
Cheng Wei looked back and saw Captain Tan smiling very happily. He couldn"t help saying, "What are you laughing at?" I asked you to invite Cat G.o.d onto our team and you wouldn"t. Yet you are still smiling! You are this person…"
Tan s.h.i.tian interrupted. "Don"t scold me. Your voice still isn"t good. Acc.u.mulate your anger and then scold me once your cold is gone."
Cheng Wei, "…"
It was useless to scold such a cheeky person.
Li Cangyu heard the Tan Cheng duo arguing and his heart felt funny. Tan s.h.i.tian had a good sense of humour while Cheng Wei had a straightforward personality. It was estimated that only Tan s.h.i.tian could cure him.
Cheng Wei glared at Captain Tan and ignored him. He sat at the computer and picked up the headset again. "Cat G.o.d, you haven"t signed with other teams right? Won"t you come to Time?"
Li Cangyu spoke bluntly, "I have signed with Dragon Warriors."
Cheng Wei"s eyes widened with surprise. "Eh? How did you sign with Dragon Warriors? Come to Time, the conditions here are also very good!"
He was bent on getting Cat G.o.d to join, thinking about staying with Cat G.o.d without considering the team, the lineup and other factors… it was rare for someone to be so stupid. When would he grow up? It was pitiful!
Li Cangyu explained, "I have several teammates on this side. Making my own team is more convenient. I have signed with Dragon Warriors and can take the new team to Miracle."
"Oh…" Cheng Wei was a bit lost but he soon became happy again. "You must get a strong team this time!"
"Of course." Li Cangyu said with a smile.
The two people hadn"t met for a long time and Cheng Wei was frustrated for several days from his cold. Therefore he kept nagging— how could the team be disbanded? Where was Cat G.o.d now? How was he doing? What was the situation with the teammates? When was he coming back?
Cheng Wei excitedly threw out many questions. Like a jumping bean, he couldn"t stop.
Tan s.h.i.tian was very bored sitting next to him and sent a Weibo.
(Once upon a time, there were two cats. The big cat was quick to catch a mouse and the kitten sat back, ready to eat. One day, the big cat left home and the kitten was heartbroken. He was particularly stupid and couldn"t catch mice, almost starving to death. The dog next door took him home and carefully raised him. The kitten often frowned but the dog fed it small fish and they got along happily. It was pleasant until after a few years, the big cat suddenly came back. The kitten immediately threw himself into the arms of the big cat, ignoring the dog. The dog was so sad [Tears][Tears])
The moment the Storytelling G.o.d posted this, there were thousands of comments.
-Captain Tan is too esoteric. I don"t understand!
-Captain Tan, I don"t understand but I still want to compliment you.
-The Storytelling G.o.d is so mighty and domineering! I hope you don"t want to enter this field.
-Captain Tan, do you want a dog or a cat?
-Captain Tan pulled out a big trick that no one can understand! P.S. Does the big cat own the kitten?
-Dogs and cats aren"t destined to be together. Don"t you know they are different species?
-Captain Tan, my son is following your Weibo. The fairy tales you write are very good.
[…]
Surprisingly, Flying Feathers" captain Su Guangmo actually forwarded this Weibo with only a row of emojis: [Candle][Candle][Candle][Candle].
Su Guangmo"s fans were confused. What did Su Guangmo mean by lighting candles for Captain Tan?
The even more surprising thing was that Ling Xuefeng also forwarded Su Guangmo"s Weibo while commenting in a serious tone: The big cat and kitten are father and son.
Fans, "…"
Captain Ling, what was he doing?
What about his image of an abstinent male G.o.d? He actually read Tan s.h.i.tian"s Weibo? Was the forward a slip of the hand?
Unexpected, Tan s.h.i.tian"s handwritten story was forwarded by Su Guangmo and Ling Xuefeng, the two biggest people in the Miracle League. Fans excitedly grabbed a screenshot but they couldn"t understand Tan s.h.i.tian"s story. What exactly did he want to express?

Chapter 53 – Lou Zhang Combination
They didn"t know what he was saying but they still wanted to give him compliments. This was what the fans thought.
Tan s.h.i.tian"s popularity was extremely high. In addition to the dead loyal fans who watched every game in the Miracle League, there were the pa.s.sersby fans who followed him because of the funny things he wrote. The fans praised him together and the forwarding of Su Guangmo and Ling Xuefeng made the number of people who read this Weibo more than one million. In just half an hour, Tan s.h.i.tian"s post was the day"s hot topic.
***
The Ghost Spirits team, 1st dormitory.
Vice-Captain Zhang Shaohui was lying on the sofa and looking through Weibo. Once he saw the news that appeared on the front page, he couldn"t help spitting out, "What is Tan s.h.i.tian saying about a big cat and a kitten? Captain Su and Captain Ling forwarded it as well? Then let me do the same."
Zhang Shaohui forwarded the tweet and commented: This story is really good! [Applause][Applause].
He had just sent it on Weibo when the door of the other bedroom opened. A man came over and said, "A"Hui, you don"t understand the situation so why are you fooling around?"
The man was thin and wearing a pair of silver-rimmed gla.s.ses. His skin was very white, his facial features very soft and he looked very gentle and handsome. However, his face was always frosty and he gradually became the famous cold beauty of the Miracle League. He was the league"s most famous killer, the captain of the Ghost Spirits team, Lou Wushuang.
His a.s.sa.s.sination techniques were first cla.s.s and many great G.o.ds had died under his lurking sneak attack. Therefore, he had the nickname of "Viper", since anybody he aimed for was like having a poisonous snake stare at them. There was basically no possibility of escape.
This person"s appearance was cold but Zhang Shaohui knew that his cousin was actually inwardly soft. That"s why Zhang Shaohui wasn"t afraid of him, despite Lou Wushuang"s unmatched cold face.
Yes, the Lou Zhang combination were distant cousins.
When Zhang Shaohui was young, his parents died in a car accident. There weren"t many relatives so he was taken care of by a kind distant aunt. His blood relationship with Lou Wushuang was already outside five generations but because the two of them grew up together, their feelings were closer than brothers.
Lou Wushuang"s cold personality caused him to suffer when studying at school. At that time, his skin was white and he looked good. There were always people who disliked the sight of him and wanted to bully him. Zhang Shaohui was a type of small bully and quite unreasonable. He never lost when he rolled up his sleeves. Anyone who dared to bully Lou Wushuang during their school days would have their front teeth knocked out.
He might be the younger one but he always protected his cousin. It was because he thought Lou Wushuang looked good, got good grade and was born to be a n.o.ble person. He would certainly have a good future. This was different from Zhang Shaohui, who grew up rolling around in the mid. Apart from his fighting abilities, his academic performance was a letdown. He completely couldn"t understand mathematical formulas and probably couldn"t test into university.
During his high school graduation year, Zhang Shaohui didn"t apply to any good universities. He felt it was impossible for him and wanted to find his own way in the future. It turned out that he was good at playing games and the Ghost Spirits team in Shenzhen were recruiting talents. He was bold enough to go to the interview.
Lou Wushuang accompanied Zhang Shaohui together to the interview and also tested out his hand speed. He didn"t expect that his hand speed was actually higher than Zhang Shaohui"s hand speed!
He had actually received an admission letter to a university but because his hand speed was so high, he chose to become an e-sports player and had a big fight with his family. Zhang Shaohui"s advice was also useless. Luo Wushuang was always stubborn and firmly carried his luggage with his brother to go to the Ghost Spirits team. Zhang Shaohui had no way to stop him but also felt happy that they could be together.
The two teenagers under 18 were appreciated by Mo Quan, the Ghost Spirits" captain and one of the Five G.o.ds. Mo Quan had been planning to retire and he trained the brothers as the successors to the Ghost Spirits team.
Lou Wushuang had always been studying attentively and never played games, but he was very clever. After entering the training game, his talent for the game was amazing and he quickly caught up to his brother Zhang Shaohui.
The two brothers grew up together and had a tacit understanding. After training for a period of time, they officially debuted in the third season. They wan into talented players such as Cheng Wei and Xie Shurong and couldn"t get the rookie awards, but they were full of stamina. In the fourth season, they showed their strength and became the miracles of the Miracle League, leading the Ghost Spirits to win the fifth season.
Zhang Shaohui"s character was hearty and he was good at martial arts. He was accustomed to fighting people since childhood and his body was very tall and strong. His popularity in the Miracle League was also high. It was just that this person was a bit blind and there were many situations where he was unclear.
Lou Wushuang was very calm and had a high IQ. He understood the meaning of Tan s.h.i.tian"s story with one glance.
The highly intelligent Captain Lou and the explosive force of the vice-captain, this combination of brother-killers was a unique thing in the Miracle League.
***
Lou Wushuang saw his dazed cousin and couldn"t help explaining, "Captain Tan means that Cat G.o.d has come back."
“Cat G.o.d?” Zhang Shaohui stood with surprise. "Are you talking about Li Cangyu who left Miracle a long time ago?"
"Yes." Lou Wushuang nodded calmly. "Tan s.h.i.tian"s big cat is referring to Cat G.o.d and the kitten refers to Cheng Wei. The dog is himself. This story means that Cat G.o.d trained Cheng Wei. After he left, Tan s.h.i.tian has been carrying Cheng Wei. Now that Cat G.o.d is back, Cheng Wei went to Cat G.o.d and ignored Captain Tan. Captain Tan is a bit sad."
Zhang Shaohui, "…"
The big cat, kitten and dog could be mentioned this way? Tan s.h.i.tian was truly amazing!
Lou Wushuang pushed up his gla.s.ses and continued to explain without any expression. "Su Guangmoa nd Ling Xuefeng forwarded the message, indicating that both of them know that Cat G.o.d has returned."
Zhang Shaohui finally recovered his spirit and walked to Lou Wushuang, praising him, "It was originally like this. Brother, you are so clever!"
The younger brother was half a head taller than himself. He showed a mouthful of white teeth when laughing and he had just taken a shower, so he was only wearing a s.e.xy black vest and shorts, exposing the muscles on his bidy.
Lou Wushuang turned red at being half-hugged by this man but he quickly adjusted his expression and said, "I am just speculating."
"Smart is smart, there is nothing wrong with admitting it. You have been smarter than me since you were a kid." Zhang Shaohui found that he was blushing and couldn"t help joking, "I am just boasting about you. Why are you blushing? You are pretty good-looking… why don"t I post a photo of you and perhaps the popularity of the photo will surpa.s.s Tan s.h.i.tian."
"…" Lou Wushuang turned away.
"Idiot, your brains cells have gone to your limbs!"
Zhang Shaohui looked at his back and felt something strange.
He didn"t know why but this cousin that he slept naked with when he was a child changed. Once they got older, Lou Wushuang always seemed to be hiding from him and his jokes made his cousin angry…
Zhang Shaohui innocently touched his nose. Did he make a mistake boasting about his cousin"s cleverness?
After being stunned for a while, Zhang Shaohui recovered and sent a text message to the Ghost Spirits Guild"s president. [President, what are the recent movements in the online game? Especially with Wind Colour, Flying Feathers and Time.]
Under the leadership of the Lou Zhang combination, the Ghost Spirits team won the championship in the fifth season. The overall strength of Ghost Spirits wasn"t as strong as Time, Wind Colour and Flying Feathers, but there was no team that dared to look down on Ghost Spirits. They were killers lying in the darkness and there was a tacit understanding with the Lou Zhang combination. As long as they were given the opportunity, they could kill ace players such as Ling Xuefeng and Su Guangmo.
The Ghost Spirits Guild wasn"t as strong as Time, Flying Feathers and Wind Colour. The president Devil May Cry was relatively low-key. No matter what the outside world did, he just silently leveled up with his guild members.
He didn"t partic.i.p.ate in the disputes of the new district but he sent people to follow up on the situation of Love to Eat Braised Fish. After receiving the text message from Vice-Captain Zhang, he immediately replied: [The new district has an elf summoner master called Love to Eat Braised Fish. Previously, there was a bounty mission and the elite teams of Wind Colour and Flying Feathers were eliminated. Later, he created the Food Squad Guild and allied with Time, taking the first ranking in the guild challenge instance.]
Zhang Shaohui saw up to here and understood the situation.
According to his cousin"s words, if Cat G.o.d was back then Love to Eat Braised Fish should be Cat G.o.d.
Wind Colour and Flying Feathers experienced a big loss and alerted the great G.o.ds on the team. Ling Xuefeng and Su Guangmo obviously recognized him. It was estimated that Time only found out today since he made this post. Cat G.o.d was back, Cheng Wei ignored Captain Tan after recognizing Cat G.o.d and Captain Tan was sad.
Lou Wushuang was really smart to understand it with one glance!
Zhang Shaohui often felt that his IQ wasn"t high enough. Fortunately, Ghost Spirits had Captain Lou and he just needed to follow his cousin"s orders.
[How will tomorrow"s legion defense be arranged?] Zhang Shaohui asked. [I want to go to the game and see Love to Eat Braised Fish.]
[Ghost Spirits has always entered the Dark Legion. If Vice-Captain comes, why don"t you take command of the legion?]
[I just want to play a side account for fun.] Zhang Shaohui felt it would be a mess if he went to command the legion war. He just wanted to go and see what the famous Cat G.o.d was doing in the game.
[What about Captain Lou?] The president asked.
[He isn"t going.] Zhang Shaohui made a decision for his cousin. [He hates such a chaotic situation and his body isn"t very comfortable these days. I will let him rest and go see myself.]
[Then I will prepare an account for Vice-Captain and send the pa.s.sword to your phone.]
[Yes, thank you!]

The guild office of the Wind Colour team.
Popular Land Under Heaven saw Captain Ling forward the Weibo message and couldn"t help wondering, "The big cat and kitten have a father and son relationship? What does the Captain mean?"
The vice president Same Boat Under Wind and Rain guessed, "Perhaps it is the relationship between Cat G.o.d and Cheng Wei?"
Popular Land Under Heaven realized. "Yes, that must be it! It seems that Time also knows the true ident.i.ty of Love to Eat Braised Fish!"
The two people were talking when they suddenly heard footsteps and looked back. They saw Ling Xuefeng walk over, followed by Qin Mo.
Popular Land Under Heaven stood up and asked, "Captain Ling, you came over so late. What is the matter?"
"In tomorrow"s legion defense, can you win the right to command the Dark G.o.ddess" camp?" Ling Xuefeng asked.
Popular Land Under Heaven was surprised. "Captain Ling, do you plan to personally direct it?"
"Yes." Ling Xuefeng nodded calmly. "Cat G.o.d should be the leader on the Bright G.o.ddess side. Tan s.h.i.tian and Cheng Wei will definitely log into the online game to join the fun. If there is no commander to fight against them on the Dark G.o.ddess side, the whole dark legion will collapse. This isn"t good for the development of the guild."
He spoke so much but…didn"t he just want to face Cat G.o.d?
Popular Land Under Heaven was joyful. He had been worried that if the Bright Legion had Cat G.o.d, wouldn"t the Dark Legion be abused? They would have no face if the score difference was too big.
He had been worried about the result but Captain Ling since he would personally come forward. Popular Land Under Heaven was filled with excitement and the blood in his body boiled!
Ling Xuefeng VS Li Cangyu in the legion defense!
Tomorrow"s event would definitely be a wonderful match in the history of Miracle!
"Captain Ling, rest a.s.sured! I will definitely win the right to command tomorrow"s war!"
He immediately sat in front of the computer and pulled the president of two guilds, Ghost Spirits and Pure Cleansing, into a discussion group. He quickly typed: [Devil May Cry, Sister Wan Qing, can Wind Colour take command of tomorrow"s legion defense? I"ll give it to you next week!"
Devil May Cry found out some things from Vice-Captain Zhang Shaohui. Since Love to Eat Braised Fish was the famous Cat G.o.d, he didn"t want to take command of the Dark Legion. Since someone dared to pick up this hot potato, he immediately agreed. [Okay!]
The president of Pure Cleansing was a girl with a gentle personality. She didn"t like fighting and had no interest in commanding. She replied: [I will leave it to you.]
[Thank you! Since my side will be commanding, let"s work together tomorrow. Will all of you listen to our commands?]
[No problem.]
[Yes.]
Popular Land Under Heaven was happy about convincing the two largest guilds and turned around. "Captain Ling, it is done."
Ling Xuefeng nodded and asked, "What is the current guild situation on both sides?"
“Wind Colour, Ghost Spirits and Pure Cleansing are part of the Dark Legion while Time, Terminator and Red Fox are part of the Bright Legion. These three guilds have always been on the Bright G.o.ddess" side. Flying Feathers and Cheetah haven"t made a statement yet so their choice is unclear."
“Flying Feathers should enter the Light Legion so go and pull the Cheetah Guild over." Ling Xuefeng decisively ordered.
Popular Land Under Heaven wasn"t sure why the captain was so certain but he was still obedient. "Okay."
Ling Xuefeng said, "You are busy. I will come again at 7 o"clock tomorrow to meet with the management of all the guilds in the Dark Legion."
Popular Land Under Heaven excitedly replied, "No problem, I will arrange it!"
Ling Xuefeng turned away.
The little follower Qin Mo never spoke from beginning to end. He just followed his master and left with his master. Popular Land Under Heaven wanted to cry out, "Little boy, why did you come here? Do you want the t.i.tle of follower?"

The rest are all close relationships, no matter what hints you might see. In addition, Qin Mo is the MC of the third novel so his story will be told there. His gong appears in this novel but hasn"t made his appearance yet.
