Chapter 234, Preparatory Meeting for the Thirteenth Season (Part 2)

At the dinner table, except for Xiao Luxiang, everyone else was already full. Luxiang's stomach capacity was completely disproportionate to his height. Everyone was already used to the foodie's appetite. Several people calmly ignored the young man sitting next to him and chewed the chicken legs, and started chatting on their own.

Although Lan Weiran has been away for nearly four years, Xiao Sijing and Lan Weiran are players of the same period after all. After all, they don’t feel disconnected when they meet. Xiao Sijing asked naturally: “Si Lan, what have you been doing in the past few years? There is no news at all?”

Lan Weiran smiled and said, "I originally planned to leave the circle of e-sports completely. I have been learning to paint abroad in recent years."

Su Shilun looked at him and asked, "Learn to paint? Are you planning to become a painter in the future?"

Lan Weiran narrowed his eyes and smiled, "That's what I think."

Su Shilun came over with interest and asked, "So, did you draw the badge of your team yourself?"

Lan Weiran nodded: "Do you think it looks good?"

Su Shilun said: "It looks pretty, the colors are beautiful, the lines are also good, and it is very recognizable in a bunch of team badges."

Lan Weiran smiled and said, "Your Seven Star Grass uniforms are also very good."

"Of course, I spent a lot of effort on designing it." Su Shilun paused and said with a smile, "I think all the players in the league can reach an agreement with me on your aesthetic view."

Lan Weiran nodded and said, "That's right, you are simply my soulmate."

Xiao Sijing: "…hehe."

Ye Chenxi: "…Ahem.”

Lan Weiran and Su Shilun began to exchange their design experiences, what color matching and lines drawing... These two people were obviously like-minded, and Xiao Sijing and Ye Chenxi were sitting next to each other and couldn't talk at all.

After Liu Chuan teased Yang Jian, he happened to hear Su Shilun and Lan Weiran talking about the uniform design. Liu Chuan, who was also unable to talk, had to sit next to Xiao Sijing, lean over with a smile and said, "Old Xiao, do you think I will draw your seven-star grass today?"

Xiao Sijing said: "It's better not."

Liu Chuan asked: "Why? Don't you want to fight us?"

Xiao Sijing said calmly: "Because you will be shaved 9:0 if you draw us, it will be too embarrassing to be your first game back to the league."

"..." Liu Chuan said speechlessly, "9:0? Are you too confident, right?"

Xiao Sijing raised his eyebrows: "I have always been so confident."

Then he put on an expression of "What are you dissatisfied with my ideas?"

Liu Chuan was too lazy to refute him, smiled slightly, and didn't say anything else.

This man has always been so confident and strong in personality. It is said that he went to the police academy for a while when he was a teenager. Under the leadership of Xiao Sijing, the players of the Seven Star Grass Team were always full of confidence and fighting spirit, which is also the most terrifying thing about the Seven Star Grass Team. This season, the two personal apprentices of Team Xiao and the Round God will also play. The team battle strength of Seven Star Grass will definitely improve. Xiao Sijing is indeed very confident in capital.

Lu Xiang finally got rid of the food in front of him, burped with satisfaction, picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth, and said with a smile: "The meeting was held at 3:00 p.m. It's only one o'clock now, and there are two hours left, so we can go back and take a nap."

Liu Chuan glanced at him and said, "Lu Xiang, are you a pig?"

Lu Xiang scratched his head and said, "Master, I am a dog."

Everyone: "..."

Shao Zehang glanced at Lu Xiang and said, "Go for a walk outside and go back. If you eat so much, you will not be good for your stomach."

Lu Xiang nodded and followed Team Shao obediently.

Lan Weiran looked at the back of the young man and couldn't help but smile and said, "Your apprentice is really careless. Your poisonous tongue is useless in front of him. He can't even react when you call him a pig."

Liu Chuan said helplessly: "Yes, my apprentice is so stupid, how can you be as steady as your apprentice."

Lan Weiran looked back at his steady apprentice and looked at Ye Chenxi with a smile. The latter said softly: "I will treat you tonight. Let's go to KTV to play for one night. I wonder if you will give me face?"

Lan Weiran touched his chin and said, "I don't know how to sing."

Ye Chenxi said: "It doesn't matter. Everyone goes out to gather during the meeting every year, just think it's relaxing."

Liu Chuan came over and said, "This is the routine of pre-match meetings every year. The meeting time is still early in the afternoon. After dinner, everyone goes out together. You can go too. Just get familiar with the captains of other teams."

Lan Weiran nodded: "Okay."

Several people set up evening activities in this way. They would go out to play after the pre-match dinner every year. Generally, the local captain would treat the city when it was the turn of the opening ceremony, which was a rare entertainment to relax before the start of the competition.

***

After dinner, everyone went back to their room for lunch and did not arrive at the conference hall together at 3 pm.

Lan Weiran has been away from the Professional League for many years. When he walked into the conference hall, he was shocked by the current style and scale of the league. In the spacious conference hall, the seats below were neatly arranged, with different signs sticking behind it. There were 36 chief and deputy captains of 18 teams, senior executives of the Professional League, heads of the online live broadcast channel, representatives of the press team, representatives of the commentary team, etc. There were long banners on the rostrum of "The Preparatory Meeting of the Thirteenth Season of Wulin Official Professional League", and there were league flags and official posters on both sides. So many people gathered together, which looked extremely spectacular.

Many media reporters took photos on the spot, and the flash lights were as bright as daylight. Lan Weiran and Liu Chuan came to the seat that wrote "Dragon Roar Team". Next to them was the newly promoted team of Canglan Team. Li Cangyu and Bai Xuan had been sitting there. After seeing the two, Li Cangyu nodded slightly, as if he had said hello.

Looking at the black old cat with chocolate skin in front of him, Liu Chuan couldn't help but smile and said, "Cat God, is the competitive atmosphere in the martial arts world okay?"

Li Cangyu said: "It's pretty good. I think the rules and regulations here are more formal than those on the miracle."

Liu Chuan said: "It seems you adapt very quickly."

Li Cangyu nodded: "Well, the game mode and the game mode are almost the same."

There is also a ring battle on the Miracle side, and the team battle game modes, and the two games are role-playing online games. Although the backgrounds are different and the names and effects of various skills are different, the principles are the same, so the Canglan team adapts very quickly.

Liu Chuan thought for a while and said, "By the way, I have a Q group called Wulin Professional Lianmeng. It is a group built by our old group of players in private. There are many professional players added to it. They usually gossip and occasionally exchange experiences. If you are interested, you can add it."

Liu Chuan took out his cell phone and left the group number to him. Li Cangyu smiled and said, "Thank you."

A man with dark skin has white teeth when he smiles, giving people a trustworthy feeling.

Liu Chuan gave him the group number and wanted the new black cat to integrate into the professional league group as soon as possible. Putting aside the victory or defeat of the game, Liu Chuan was quite impressed by the person Cat God. He refused the invitation from foreign clubs to take the entire team to transfer the game. He must be unfamiliar with the place when he came here. As the oldest player in the Wulin Professional League, Liu Chuan was naturally happy to help him.

Soon, all the heads and deputy captains of the 18 teams arrived and took their seats one by one. The chairperson in charge of the meeting also began to read out the contents of the conference.

The content of the meeting is the first of all the team logos, uniforms, and player information confirmation of the 18 teams. During the game, the team logo must be directly imported into the competition server and appears in the form of a small icon in front of the player ID, so there must be no errors. Similarly, the player information will be printed during the live broadcast, and the director will introduce the contestants to the audience, so this part cannot be careless.

The team began to list the information according to the team on the big screen and confirm it in turn. The captains had already reported the information to the league and glanced carefully. If there was no problem, they would sign the confirmation form. If there was any problem, they should modify it in time.

The process of confirming this information is actually the process of exposing the list of contestants of each team in the 13th season. The captains of other teams and media reporters will also pay attention to the information listed on the big screen to see if the lineup of some teams has been adjusted. Sure enough, some new names appeared in the list of contestants of some teams that have not been seen before, probably newcomers who have just been transferred to the main team from the training camp.

The process of confirming the information was carried out in an orderly manner. As the new team, the Longyin Team was ranked last in sequence. The person in charge read out the name of the team: "Longyin Team."

The team logo of the ice blue dragon-shaped totem, the team uniform with a blue icon on the white background, and the information of the nine contestants appeared on the big screen—

Captain: Hai Na Bai Bai Chuan; Name: Liu Chuan; Gender: Male; Age: 25 years old; Sect: Tang Sect.

Vice Captain: Lan Lanlan, name: Lan Weiran; Gender: Male; Age: 25 years old; Sect: Xiaoyao.

Team member: Yese; Name: Qin Ye; Gender: Male; Age: 24 years old; Sect: Emei.

...

When these three lines of characters popped out of the big screen, a neat sound of air pumping suddenly sounded at the scene, and then, his eyes were all set in the direction where Liu Chuan was!

At the complicated gazes of the people around him, Liu Chuan touched his chin calmly and smiled.

Another year later, he and Silan were already 25 years old, and Qin Ye was 24 years old. Compared with a large number of young corps of seventeen or eighteen years old in other teams, the Longyin team was simply a "elderly corps."

But it was the IDs of these three familiar veteran players that directly shocked the captains and deputy captains of other teams on the scene! The media reporters were even more stunned and immediately pressed the shutter to take a photo.

——Si Lan? Night Scenery? These two people are actually in the Dragon Roar Team?!

——It’s simply amazing!

——The first captain of the Chinese team, the first captain of the Luohuaci team, the first deputy captain of the Chang'an team, and you three veteran-level masters are teaming up together. What do you think?!

Didn’t Silan retire as early as the end of the fourth season?

Didn’t Qin Ye retired in the tenth season? Why did he suddenly come back together?!

Except for Ye Chenxi, who had known about this for a long time, who was very calm with a smile on his face, the other captains were extremely surprised!

Seeing the information of this row of players, the most complicated expression was probably Yang Jian. Qin Ye actually came back in team formation with his brother? Yang Jian suddenly felt that his eyes were dark and he almost fell to his head!

Xiao and Su had long guessed the existence of the deputy captain Si Lan, Xiao and Su. Shao Zehang and Lu Xiang had also seen each other during the meal just now, but it was really unexpected that Qin Ye joined the Dragon Roar Team! Therefore, Xiao Sijing and Shao Zehang, the two always steady captains, were full of surprise.

But the captains who had never seen Silan but had heard of Silan ID turned their eyes to the man sitting next to Liu Chuan - the man leaned gracefully on the back of the chair, squinted his eyes and looked up at the big screen. His long chestnut hair tied a small piece behind his head, and he seemed to have the temperament of a lazy and slackened artist... Is this the legendary Silan?

Everyone looked at him curiously, but Lan Weiran, who was regarded as a rare animal, looked at him with a smile on his face, as if he was lying on the sofa, squinting his eyes and basking in the sun, directly ignoring the gaze of all stupid humans around him.

The information of the Longyin team was confirmed soon, and everyone found that the average age of this new team was relatively high. Except for the three veterans of Chuan, Lan and Ye, most of the other players were around 22 years old, and there was only one young man who lowered the average age of the entire team. This year, he just reached 18 years old.

Such a lineup makes the other team captains feel a little complicated.

Xiao Sijing looked back at Liu Chuan, frowned and said, "He actually pulled Qin Ye over?"

Su Shilun said helplessly: "I thought I was wrong. Liu Chuan is simply a god!"

When I knew that Lan Weiran was back, Xiao Sijing and Su Shilun were quite calm. Liu Chuan and Si Lan were not afraid of joining forces. After all, no matter how awesome the two great gods were, it would be difficult to move on in the league with a bunch of newcomers. But now with Qin Ye, it would be different - Qin Ye is an extremely calm player and is also known as the "No. 1 Assassin of the Professional League". This statement was popular in the league back then: "No night can break through the defense line, and no night can be eliminated in seconds!"

At the height of his state, the night was so beautiful that he could break through among thousands of troops and take the opponent's head. Even if his speed was not as good as that of the past when he was 23 years old, no team dared to be careless in front of him...

Xiao Sijing and Su Shilun looked at each other and whispered: "We underestimate Liu Chuan too much. His ambitions are quite great."

Su Shilun leaned into his ear and whispered: "Qin Ye also joined Long Yin. The three of them made a comeback together, obviously for the championship. It seems that the overall strength of the Long Yin team is much stronger than what they showed in the city competition stage."

Xiao Sijing nodded: "That's right, Qin Ye has never played in the city competition."

Su Shilun touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "In the game that lost to Canglan, the Ming Cult of the Dragon Roar Team had obviously not been integrated into the team. Obviously, Liu Chuan did not treat him as a real assassin position to train him. I was wondering at the time, how could Liu Chuan send such a strong personal style to fight a team battle with Liu Chuan's personality? Now it seems that Liu Chuan has already figured out that the assassin position... was obviously reserved for Qin Ye."

Qin Ye was unable to participate in the city competition because of his retirement. The assassin position was played by the Ming Cult. The team battle lineup of the Longyin team always seemed a little awkward. When you think about it carefully, it was easy to understand that Xu Ce was not the team assassin that Liu Chuan was really training, because he still had the ace of Qin Ye!

Su Shilun looked at Liu Chuan and happened to meet Liu Chuan's smiling gaze. Su Shilun gave him a blank look and said helplessly: "This guy is so cunning. He has been hiding Qin Ye. He has only given everyone a last blow until now. I guess many captains are scared by him."

"He has always been like this. He should be very happy to scare everyone." Xiao Sijing paused and said calmly: "However, the three of them want to form a team to win the championship, so we should also ask whether we agree or not."
