God Level Summoner Chapter 48-50

Chapter 48 – Zhang Jueming

Once Su Guangmo went offline, Li Cangyu immediately added the white magician in the team as a friend.

He was able to determine that Awakened Magician was actually Zhang Jueming.

A general leveler wouldn't be so calm when he just saw Su Guangmo. When Su Guangmo and Xie Shurong PKed, the two people's standards could clearly be seen. However, Awakened Magician didn't say anything or even show curiosity. He was obviously a person used to such scenes.

The other person accepted the friend's application and Li Cangyu sent him a private message: [Old Zhang, the swordsman who was called Bright Moon on the Sea is very masterful and is a bit like the first captain of the Flying Feathers team, Song Yang. I think he is probably Song Yang's first apprentice, Su Guangmo. What do you think?]

The other side pretended not to know, replying: [Who are Song Yang and Su Guangmo?]

However, he suddenly found himself in Cat G.o.d's language trap. Didn't he admit that he was Old Zhang?

Sure enough, Li Cangyu said: [Why didn't you ask about who Old Zhang is? Zhang Jueming.]

"…" Zhang Jueming was depressed after being stripped of his mask. [Old Cat, your fishing level is becoming higher and higher!]

Li Cangyu laughed. [You already recognized me and Bai Xuan?]

Zhang Jueming touched his nose. [Cough, I was too embarra.s.sed to greet you!]

[Is it because you went into the modern leveling studio practice?]

[I am the leveling boss, the boss.] Zhang Cheming corrected.

[Is the boss interested in going back to the compet.i.tion?] Li Cangyu asked earnestly. [I am teaming up with Bai Xuan to return to Miracle. Right now, I am short of teammates and you can help me.]

[…I'm 26 years old.] Zhang Jueming said with embarra.s.sment. [Isn't it too much to go back at this age?]

Zhang Jueming was the same age as Time's old captain Xu Luo and Flying Feathers' old captain Song Yang.

In the first season, Xu Luo was only 20 years old when he led the Time team to win the championship and was young and promising. However, the same 20 year old Zhang Jueming's team experienced the tragedy of the FTD team and didn't reach the playoffs.

The even more tragic thing was that his teammates weren't as determined and fierce as Li Cangyu's friends, not was there something like Bai Xuan's support as a vice-captain. Compared to Li Cangyu who was accompanied by his friends, he was fighting alone.

Full Moon disbanded at the end of the first season and he wanted to go to other teams. Unfortunately, the white magician a.s.sistance style that he played was too biased. He couldn't find a team to accept him and Zhang Jueming had to leave the Miracle League.

In that year, his heart had been very unwilling but as time pa.s.sed, he gradually understood that the outstanding G.o.ds of Miracle, apart from their own talent and strength, they also relied on opportunities.

He missed his opportunities in his best years.

He wanted to go back but because he was getting older, it was hard to find a team willing to accept him.

Therefore, this unwillingness was gradually buried in the bottom of his heart.

Now at the age of 26, he could be regarded as an antique in the e-sports circles. Song Yang, who was the same age as him, retired to be a coach at the end of the second season. Then he left the league after the third season. Xu Luo retired in the fourth season after bringing on Tan s.h.i.tian…

Now it was the sixth season and the Miracle League was already a world with a new generation of players. The disciples of Captain Song and Captain Xu became the pillars of their teams and the old captains had already retired.

Xiao Gu calling him 'uncle' truly wasn't wrong. Compared to the youngsters at 17 or 18 years old who could let out a burst of speed, he was truly an uncle. If he went back, he would just drag his teammates down.

A trace of loss filled Zhang Jueming's eyes but he quickly adjusted his expression. He smiled and said: [Thank you Cat G.o.d for looking at me. However, I am very good at the studio and my income is actually okay.]

Li Cangyu asked: [What is your leveling studio called? Is it in Beijing?]

[The rent in Beijing is too expensive. I am currently in Changsha and the studio is called Speed. Cat G.o.d, please introduce business to me!] Zhang Jueming replied.

[Changsha? That's good. I will come see you on the weekend. Let's talk face to face.] Li Cangyu declared.

[Haha Cat G.o.d, are you joking? Aren't you abroad?]

Li Cangyu said: [I can fly back.]

Zhang Jueming: […]

***

Zhang Jueming thought that Cat G.o.d was joking. How could he fly back so casually from abroad?

Unexpectedly, he opened the door early on Sat.u.r.day morning and found a handsome man standing there with a small backpack. He reached out with a smile and said, "h.e.l.lo, I am Old Cat, Li Cangyu. Do you still recognize me?"

Zhang Jueming almost slipped. "…You really came?"

The man in front of him was much more mature than the 18 year old youth in his memories. He had experienced many hardships and became more powerful than before.

A tall and slender figure combined with the handsome appearance, honestly personality and charming smile!

Zhang Jueming glanced at him and asked, "Did you come straight from the airport?"

"Yes."

Zhang Jueming, "…"

Cat G.o.d did things resolutely but flying directly from abroad, wasn't this too resolute?

"Well, come in and sit." Zhang Jueming invited Li Cangyu into the studio.

After leaving the league at the end of the first season, Zhang Jueming carefully considered his options before deciding to go to his relative's home. Life in Changsha didn't have as much pressure as Beijing. He rented a large place in the suburbs of Changsha and set up a studio. The beds in the bedroom was for sleeping while the living room was changed into a work room with over a dozen computers.

A few young people were sitting in front of the computer and quickly tapping the keyboard. Apparently, business was busy.

Game leveling was actually harder than being a professional player. Although professional players trained all day long, they could have rest time after a game was finished and there were many bonuses when they won a game. The end of the season also had a vacation period.

Leveling wasn't the same. If there was busy, they would be busy all the time and not even earn much money…

Zhang Jueming brought Li Cangyu to his office. It was a small study area less than 10 square metres, with a table, computer and bookcases. Zhang Jueming had a separate room as the studio owner but it still looked very humble.

"It is a mess but sit down." Zhang Jueming turned to pour some water for Li Cangyu.

Li Cangyu looked at his back and couldn't help feeling some distress. In the first season, Zhang Jueming was a captain and his eyes were full of glory. It was a pity that Full Moon disbanded very suddenly. When Li Cangyu went to find him, he was already missing.

This person had the same bad opportunities as Li Cangyu. In the era of strong teams, they failed to form a strong team. The small teams they led were like tiny grains of sand mixing in with a pile of pearls.

However, Li Cangyu firmly believed that from now on, this sand would eventually wash away its cover and become the most brilliant pearl in the Miracle League.

***

“I came to see you personally to show my sincerity." Li Cangyu stared seriously at Zhang Jueming once he turned around. "Old Zhang, join my team. Captain Song and Captain Xu might've already retired but they played outputs. You play an auxiliary so you don't need too much speed. I believe that with your awareness, you can definitely overcome the problem of falling hand speed."

"…" Zhang Jueming couldn't help feeling moved.

This person came all this way to convince him to join the team. His sincerity was clearly placed in front of Zhang Jueming. Such a captain was worth trusting and following.

"Old Cat… you are really flattering me!" Zhang Jueming scratched his head. "I played a white magician in the past but I actually wasn't very good. If you want to return to Miracle, you can find a better auxiliary. Isn't a psychic auxiliary popular in the world right now?"

“A psychic auxiliary does have its advantages but a white magician can also be an auxiliary. I'm not being impulsive. I made this decision after careful consideration." Li Cangyu's att.i.tude was very firm.

“That… can a white magic a.s.sistant be better than a psychic?" Zhang Jueming couldn't help feeling doubts. At present, many professional teams in the league didn't need auxiliary cla.s.ses and those that did generally chose a psychic. A pure auxiliary profession was truly the world of psychics.

"Look at the specific configuration of my teammates." Li Cangyu smiled confidently. "Old Zhang, I'm not making fun of you. At present, my team already has a healer in Bai Xuan, a swordsman in Xie Shurong and a training player Gu Siming from the Dragon Warriors training camp. If you add my summoner, the front row melee and the healer in the very rear is all full. I am missing an auxiliary so your joining will be absolutely great for us."

"…" Zhang Jueming was silent.

“You are like me, someone who has never won a trophy. Don't you want to try holding the trophy?" Li Cangyu asked.

"…" Of course he wanted to !

“We're both old and this will be the last chance." Li Cangyu said, "You should consider it."

"I don't have to think about it!" Zhang Jueming readily said, "You flew all the way back to sincerely invite me to join. I am a bad old player who will disappoint you but I should at least be worthy of your ticket money! I will return to Miracle and play on the bench. Just arrange it!"

Old Zhang was still enthusiastic and bold, deciding things neatly.

Li Cangyu stood up happily and said, "In that case, you should first arrange things with your studio. If it is convenient, do you want to come to the club with me and sign the contract?"

“Where is the club?” Zhang Cheming questioned.

“Changsha, the Dragon Warriors Club." Li Cangyu replied.

"What?" Zhang Jueming's eyes widened with surprise. "You joined the Dragon Warriors?

He had stayed in Changsha for several years and was naturally familiar with the local Dragon Warriors Club. The Dragon Warriors Club was very strong and it developed rapidly in the last few years. He didn't expect Cat G.o.d to find such a good owner. This man was really reliable.

"Yes. Apart from persuading you to join the team, I came back to go to the club and discuss details of the team with the manager. If it is convenient, do you want to come with me?"

Zhang Cheming excitedly said, "It is convenient! Of course it is convenient!"

The two people made a decision. Zhang Jueming first found his keys and phone before leaving with Li Cangyu.

An employee saw him change clothes to go out and asked doubtfully, "Boss, are you going out?"

Zhang Jueming smiled and cried out, "Yes, Boss is going to get a trophy! Wait for me to sweep through the Miracle League. I will make a fortune and upgrade our studio to a regular leveling company! I will give you a raise!"

Then he left with Li Cangyu while the group looked at him like he was a 'madman.'

The people in the studio silently thought in their hearts, 'Boss Zhang is really sick! Speaking a mouthful of nonsense, did he give up on healing?'

Chapter 49 – Lineup Planning

Li Cangyu and Zhang Jueming took a taxi to the location of the Dragon Warriors Club.

Li Cangyu hadn't wanted to go back so early but Zhang Jueming was coincidentally in Changsha and the progress of the team was unexpectedly smooth. He decided to go back to China and discuss with Liu Chuan about the next details.

The club's headquarters was located in a large office building on the outskirts of Changsha. Once the two of them entered the door, they saw a row of cool and elegant cursive characters spelling out: Dragon Warriors E-sports Club.

The font was flamboyant and it was said that Liu Chuan personally wrote it when he built his team.

The large characters hung behind the front desk, next to the dragon totem logo of the club. The bright and large hall looked very stylish.

The Dragon Warriors Club's manager, Liu Chuan was actually a rich second generation. His mother was a well known businesswoman and his family's a.s.sets were over 100 million yuan. The admirable thing was that he didn't rely on his family's financial support and earned a sum of money on his own. He used these funds to create this club by hand.

The year that Li Cangyu's FTD team was disbanded happened to be the year that Liu Chuan created the Dragon Warriors Club. The two of them met while leveling in the game. Later, Liu Chuan led his team all the way to the finals to win the championship. Li Cangyu had transferred to Wulin but didn't get any good results.

The Dragon Warriors Club developed extremely rapidly in just a few years. Its popularity rose steadily, causing advertis.e.m.e.nts, endors.e.m.e.nts and sponsorships to roll in The club's decorations today looked very great.

After retiring, Liu Chuan handed over the captain's position to Wu Zewen. Now he managed the club and was also an executive director in the China E-sports League. He also paid attention to the trends in the domestic and international e-sports circles. He always looked at the long-term and as soon as he heard about the Miracle World Compet.i.tion, he took advantage of this opportunity to expand the scale of the Dragon Warriors Club into Miracle.

The Canglan team disbanding at this time and Li Cangyu's joining was timely for LIu Chuan.

There was no one better to lead a team in Miracle then Cat G.o.d!

The cooperation between the two teams was very enjoyable. Liu Chuan handed over full responsibility of the team to Li Cangyu without disturbing him. This time, Li Cangyu wanted to handle the contracts for Xie Shurong and Zhang Jueming, as well as the development plan of the team. He wanted to have a good talk with Liu Chuan.

***

Li Cangyu greeted Liu Chuan on Q before leaving the house. Once the two people arrived at the club, the door opened for them. They walked towards the inner manager's office and Li Cangyu knocked on the door. A voice was heard from inside saying, "Come in!"

The door opened to reveal a large desk in the middle of the s.p.a.cious office. There was a high-end desktop computer as well as soft leather sofas with a coffee table next to it, clearly for guests. The right side had a large bookcase that occupied the wall. There weren't many books on it. Instead, there were boxes of arranged data and hundreds of CDs neatly placed.

The man sitting at the desk looked young. He was wearing a simple short-sleeved shirt and slacks while smiling casually. Standing next to him was a man wearing gla.s.ses. The man wearing a white shirt, slim trousers and gla.s.ses looked more like a scholar than a e-sports player.

Zhang Jueming had also heard of the two great G.o.ds of the Dragon Warriors Club. The one sitting at the desk should be the manager Liu Chuan and the 'academic' layer should be the current captain of the Wulin team, Wu Zewen, who was famous in the e-sports circle.

"Sit down." Liu Chuan saw Li Cangyu enter end immediately stood up, bringing them to the sofa before asking, "Cat G.o.d, this is the Zhang Jueming you told me about?"

“Yes, he promised to join the team so I brought him over to sign the contract." Li Cangyu explained.

Zhang Jueming took the initiative to hold out his hand. "It is nice to meet you Boss."

Liu Chuan smiled and shook hands with him. "Cat G.o.d has told me about your situation. I have always respected old players. You won't regret coming back to help Cat G.o.d. You gave yourself a chance and this time we will directly rush towards the championship."

Zhang Jueming laughed, "I also think so!"

“Zewen, take out the contract." Liu Chuan looked at the man beside him. Wu Zewen immediately found the contract and handed it to Zhang Jueming. He pushed up his gla.s.ses and said seriously, "This was just drawn up last night. If you aren't satisfied with any of the conditions then you can talk with the boss again."

Zhang Jueming carefully looked over the contract and found that his treatment was really good.

The salary was twice as high as his studio and… in addition to the fixed salary, the players would get additional income such as compet.i.tion bonuses, team advertising, tickets to matches and even profits from live programs!

Many team managers wouldn't give the tickets and peripheral sales profits to the players. This was why Dragon Warriors was so popular.

If he wasn't satisfied with such conditions then he would be too picky.

Zhang Jueming handed the contract back and said, "No problem. The conditions are much better than I thought!"

This man was straightforward and casually said the truth.

Liu Chuan replied, "If there's no problem then shall we sign the contract first?"

"Okay!" Zhang Jueming picked up a pen and signed his name on the contract.

His writing was unrestrained, just like his nature.

Liu Chuan had a very good impression of Zhang Jueming. Compared to those who secretly acted behind the scenes, this type of person was best to get along with. Since this was a player recommended by Cat G.o.d, Liu Chuan was too lazy to ask about the level of this person. He believed in Cat G.o.d's eyes.

Once the contract was signed, Liu Chuan sat down with the two people on the sofas.

Wu Zewen poured them two cups of water and handed them a thick data booklet.

"What is this?" The confused Li Cangyu opened the booklet.

Liu Chuan smiled and explained. "Zewen has been idle these days so he helped organize the information of the top eight teams in the Miracle League. Take a look first."

Wu Zewen, the captain of the Dragon Warriors team, had a science background. He had a lot of experience with organizing and summarizing data. Li Cangyu had a lot of contact with Wu Zewen many times while playing in the Wulin League and was very impressed with his ability to collect and a.n.a.lyze data.

Today they belonged to the same club and because they were in different leagues, there was no conflict of interest. This type of data sharing would definitely be a great help to Li Cangyu.

Sure enough, the information compiled by the genius was different. It showed the information of all players in the top eight teams in great detail. Through some intuitive data, they could see the current status of many players.

Li Cangyu glanced over it. The most stable player in the sixth season was Ling Xuefeng, followed by Su Guangmo and Tan s.h.i.tian. They were the Three Pillars of today's Miracle League and captains of three major teams.

The three great G.o.ds were ranked in the first echelon and the players in the second echelon weren't much weaker.

For example, Wind Colour's vice-captain Yan Ruiwen was the strongest black magician in the league. Flying Feathers' vice-captain Yu Pingsheng was the strongest berserker. There was also Time's vice-captain Cheng Wei, Pure Cleansing's captain Zhu Qingyue, Ghost Spirits' Lou Zhang combination and so on… These players along could fight with Captain Ling, Captain Su and Captain Tan.

The Miracle League had many clouds, showing that the overall strength of the first division had improved a lot compared to the first season of the league.

Li Cangyu was very confident but he had to face so many strong opponents after returning to Miracle. The pressure on his shoulders wasn't small.

After carefully reading the data, Li Cangyu said, "Ling Xuefeng and Su Guangmo are both old players who have played for several years. Tan s.h.i.tian just took over as captain last season and his performance is surprising. It seems that Captain Xu's vision is very great."

“Tan s.h.i.tian, I also know this person. He is the genius from the Huaxia Club's training camp. Once Xu Luo retired and Tan s.h.i.tian took over as the captain of Time, he is the most powerful one among the new generation of Miracle. Moreover, I watched the match between Wind Colour and Time last week. Xiao Cheng played slightly abnormally but Tan s.h.i.tian was able to hold on." Liu Chuan commented seriously.

“He is indeed amazing." Li Cangyu said, "I left Miracle when Xu Luo was still captain. Xu Luo's retirement didn't have the slightest effect on Time's result. This proves that Tan s.h.i.tian is equally excellent as captain."

“If we want to sweep through Miracle then Wind Colour, Flying Feathers and Time will be the hardest nuts to chew on?" Zhang Jueming stated.

“The three teams have the strongest overall strength but the other teams aren't weak." Li Cangyu seriously a.n.a.lyzed, "There are eight giants of the Miracle League. Wind Colour depends on the dual summoner control and the black magician suppression, Time has the white magician control and the elf archer's remote outputs and Flying Feathers has the melee swordsmen. Then there is Pure Cleansing's psychic illusions, the Ghost Spirits Lou Zhang combination of the strongest a.s.sa.s.sins, the Cheetah team has their traps, Red Fox has multiple white magicians and Terminator is a combination of black and white magic. These teams each have their own characteristics."

Li Cangyu used a few simple words to point out the core lineup of the eight teams in the league. It was obvious that he also worked hard.

Liu Chuan looked at him with appreciation. "What about Cat G.o.d?"

Li Cangyu said, "At present, our team has a paladin, swordsman, healer, summoner and white magician auxiliary. There are five confirmed players. I would like to find a black magician, an a.s.sa.s.sin and a hunter."

Liu Chuan summarized it. "You have a front row of defense, a back row of main attackers and an a.s.sa.s.sin and hunter for when it is necessary?"

Liu Chuan used to be an e-sports player and he knew the game modes and lineup configurations very well. There were no obstacles when communicating and he was different from the bosses who acted arrogant despite knowing nothing.

"I think this is the best choice." Li Cangyu explained, "When I first started the new district, I didn't expect to meet Xie Shurong. His current strength isn't inferior to Su Guangmo and his joining made me change my thoughts. Xiao Gu is from the Dragon Warriors' training camp and his talent is very prominent. After some training, he could keep up with A'Shu's rhythm. Our team's front row is guaranteed with those two. The biggest feature of A'Shu is his fast burst of attacks so our team will take the fast attacking route."

“This is good. A strong offensive is actually a type of defense." Liu Chuan agreed. "The back row has you and Bai Xuan. The team's survivability and output will be guaranteed with your own partnership."

"That's right." Li Cangyu was very confident about this. "Old Zhang's white magic can also help us during a fierce battle. If used at the critical moment, our output will double and wouldn't be wasted. For the rest of them time, I will look for an a.s.sa.s.sin, hunter and black magician. I will switch them based on different opponents."

Zhang Jueming was amazed the more he heard. Cat G.o.d's tactical ability was truly deserving of his reputation!

They hadn't even started playing in the league yet and he was already thinking about the team's lineup. It was really farsighted.

As he said, Xie Shurong and Xiao Gu being the melee front row and Cat G.o.d and Bai Xuan's being in the rear meant the team's defense, survival and output was basically guaranteed. If mobile hunter and a.s.sa.s.sins were found then there would be a greater impact on the team. As for the black magician… it should be to control the white magicians of Time and Red Fox?

He was too thoughtful and came up with a professional configuration that targeted the eight strong teams of the league. They had a chance to win and not by crushed by a team's lineup.

It was wise of him to follow such a captain!

Zhang Jueming clenched his fist with excitement.

Liu Chuan handed the Miracle team to Li Cangyu so he naturally didn't have any doubts about Li Cangyu's decision. He thought up to here and said, "I think this type of combination is good. The specific members configuration will be left up to you. If you can't find good teammates in the game and need to dig someone out from another team, we will discuss it later."

"Okay."

Li Cangyu had just entered the only game when he met A'Shu, followed by Old Zhang. Five players were decided in less than a month. This speed was really amazing. Liu Chuan was very pleased with the progress of Li Cangyu's team and smiled. "Perhaps your luck has arrived? This world compet.i.tion might be waiting for Cat G.o.d to show your power!

Li Cangyu also laughed. "Perhaps the world compet.i.tion blew out a lot of masters into the public. Miracle's new district is very lively and I could meet A'Shu and Old Zhang. My luck is also very good."

Liu Chuan stood up and said, "I'll show you around the club first before inviting you out to dinner. I must welcome Zhang Jueming to the Dragon Warriors Club."

Zhang Jueming replied, "Boss is too polite!"

Liu Chuan smiled. "You're welcome, there is no need to be too polite. What do you want to eat?"

Li Cangyu looked at Zhang Jueming and said seriously, "Let's go eat boiled fish."

Zhang Jueming, "…"

Couldn't he eat anything else?

However, Zhang Jueming could only bite the bullet after seeing Cat G.o.d's eyes. "Okay!"

Chapter 50 – Moving

Liu Chuan took Li Cangyu and Zhang Jueming on a tour of the Dragon Warriors Club. Zhang Jueming saw the s.p.a.cious training room and couldn't help thinking that the conditions here were too good. He didn't think there would be such a s.p.a.cious and bright office training room, let alone the projection equipment, the high-end desktop computers and the mechanical keyboards of the training room…

Zhang Jueming looked through the huge windows at the row of new computers and his blood ignited!

This would be the place where he trained in the future?

He was old yet he could still return to the game. It was just like a dream…

Liu Chuan opened the door of the training room and Li Cangyu and Zhang Jueming entered together. Unexpectedly, there was a corner where the computer was on. A young boy was sitting in front of the computer and staring carefully at the screen in front of him. His hands quickly tapped on the keyboard, making a clear sound.

This teenager was very lovely. He had a round baby-fat face, a pair of big and bright eyes and his soft hair naturally hung over his ears, leaving only the tip of a white ear exposed.

Zhang Jueming couldn't help asking curiously, "Shouldn't Wulin be in the summer offseason? Why is someone still training?"

Liu Chuan explained, "He is the little madman of out team. He isn't with Wulin. He belongs to Cat G.o.d and is a Miracle player.

Li Cangyu added, "He is Gu Siming."

Zhang Jueming finally reacted with a laugh. "Oh, it is that paladin child?"

After hearing the word 'child', Gu Siming turned back and stared at Zhang Jueming with big eyes. "I'm not a child!"

Zhang Jueming thought that the child's chubby face with his big, black eyes were really cute. He couldn't help wanting to tease. "You look like a 13 year old. Are you really not a child?"

“I'm 17 years old!" Gu Siming seriously defended. "I will be an adult next year!"

“That means you're not an adult yet?" Zhang Jueming asked.

"…" Gu Siming was depressed and stood up. "Uncle, are you that crazy magician in the game?"

“I am Awakened Magician." Zhang Cheming corrected.

In any case, he was the sick uncle. Gu Siming concluded in his head.

Liu Chuan saw the big one and small one arguing and changed the topic. "Xiao Gu, stop player. We will go to eat."

Gu Siming ran over to Li Cangyu and smiled. "Cat G.o.d! You look more handsome than you do in the videos!"

The little guy in front of him had lovely dimples when smiling. Li Cangyu thought about him playing the beast paladin… Once people saw the paladin operated by the Gu Siming, the Miracle League would definitely be surprised.

Li Cangyu smiled and couldn't help rubbing the child's head as he said, "Let's go and eat fish."

Gu Siming, "…"

The way that Cat G.o.d expressed affection for people was simple: please eat fish!

***

The five people headed to a restaurant near the club. Li Cangyu ordered boiled fish and a plate of fish heads. Of course, in order to take care of other people, Li Cangyu handed the menu to them after ordering the fish.

Gu Siming liked to eat meat so he ordered pork ribs and roast chicken. Zhang Jueming also liked meat and added a plate of roast lamb leg.

The first gathering of the Food Squad really started with a table full of food.

Liu Chuan and Wu Zewen had a good appet.i.te today and followed them in eating a lot.

Once the table of food was cleared away, Li Cangyu brought up business, "By the way Old Zhang, it would be convenient if you move to live with the team. Xiao Gu is also staying in the dorms so you can cooperate with each other first and become familiar with each other."

Gu Siming objected. "I don't want to live with Uncle."

Zhang Jueming retorted, "Don't make a fuss. I will buy you a pound of white rabbit candy tomorrow."

Gu Siming, "…"

Liu Chuan almost spat out his tea.

It looked like the little madman had met his nemesis! Uncle Zhang had a way to make him speechless.

Li Cangyu couldn't help smiling at the little guy's angry face. He touched the child's head and said, "Your Uncle Zhang is the owner of the studio. He must have a lot of full-level accounts in the old district so the two of you can directly team up to check the arena."

Gu Siming took the team seriously and asked, "What about you?"

Li Yunyu replied, "I will fly back to New York the day after tomorrow. I will continue to look for new people in the game with Bai Xuan and Xie Shurong. When we are online, you can come and level with us. Once we go offline, you will team up to play the arena.  This is the two-p.r.o.nged approach of the online game and the compet.i.tion. Perhaps you can meet strong teammates in the arena."

The time difference meant that them teaming up wasn't convenient. Since Old Zhang entered the team, Li Cangyu thought about giving Xiao Gu to him.

Zhang Jueming might be unknown but he was a person who was once a captain. His tactical awareness and understanding of the cla.s.ses in Miracle would definitely help Gu Siming. As an auxiliary and captain, he would see the details even more. Zhang Jueming's character was very bold but he was responsible. Li Cangyu naturally felt very a.s.sured with him taking care of Xiao Gu.

Gu Siming said, "Once you go offline, I will go to the arena. This means my level won't be able to keep up with yours in the new district!"

Zhang Jueming asked, "Have you forgotten what I do for a living?"

Gu Siming turned around and replied, "Do you sell candy?"

Zhang Jueming smiled helplessly. "Stupid, I am the boss of a leveling studio. Why do you need to worry about levels?"

Gu Siming suddenly realized and nodded. "Oh, that's right!"

Zhang Jueming saw him continuously nodding like a chicken pecking rice and couldn't help patting his head. "In the future, just follow Uncle. I will teach you to become the league's first paladin. There is no need to thank me."

"…" Gu Siming was depressed.

He just met the captain and uncle today and his head was rubbed left and right. He felt like he would soon become the mascot of the team. Did he have no human rights because he was young?"

***

After dinner, Liu Chuan took them back to visit the dormitory area.

Liu Chuan bought several apartments directly in the area opposite the office building for the team to use as dormitories. That way, it would be very convenient for everyone to go home and sleep after training. At present, there were more club players and the apartments had expanded by several times. The dormitories were also very adequate. There were rooms for four people, three people rooms and double rooms. Xiao Gu was currently living in a double room and one of the bedrooms was empty. Liu Chuan arranged for Uncle Zhang to stay in his dormitory.

Gu Siming was young and his mind was very simple. Previously, he hated Uncle Zhang because Uncle Zhang said he would buy Gu Siming a lollipop. ON the way back, he heard Cat G.o.d say that this uncle used to be a captain and all dislike fled. He felt it was good that he was learning from the uncle.

Zhang Jueming explored the dormitory and was very satisfied with the environment. He promised to move in.

In any case, the studio employees picked their own business. After the completion of a job, 30% of the money would be paid to the studio while the employees kept the rest. Zhang Jueming was also good to everyone and provided them with accommodation. Things wouldn't go wrong if he left the studio for a while.

Zhang Jueming decided to go back to pack and leave the studio with a trusted friend.

That afternoon, he moved into the bedroom opposite Gu Siming's room.

The future of the team was more important than the money from leveling. Since Old Cat handed Gu Siming to him, he must make Gu Siming the best paladin in the Miracle Professional League!
