Chapter 022 +023(1/3)
Chapter 022, Lu Xiang
Qin Ye logged into the online game server this time and was indeed here to change to Orange Martial Arts.
There are two types of redemption methods for the 24 new Orange Martial Arts that have been officially updated. The first is to convert the arena points into Mingjiange points to redemption, and the required score is 15,000. The second is to redemption materials. The materials required are all very precious and rare materials. Most of the people who can have this ability to collect all the materials and exchange them for Orange Martial Arts are top experts in major guilds. After all, Orange Martial Arts is very precious, and the more difficult the redemption method, the more it can reflect its value.
Because the arena is a "give points if you win, deduct points if you lose", the winning rate is above 50%. It is not easy to save points. Those who can save more than 10,000 points are basically the super masters of the seventh level, that is, most professional players.
The online game server and the competition server of this game are separated and do not affect each other. All equipment in the competition server is free, with players' channels, live broadcast channels and referee channels. Unfortunately, the competition server is only open in the league and cannot be logged in normally. The replacement of a weapon will definitely affect the rhythm of the game. If you go to the competition server rashly and take a new weapon on the court, let alone cooperate with your teammates, you won’t be used to it.
Therefore, every time the expansion pack is updated, many professional players will log in to the online game server to see the attributes of the new weapon and practice it by the way.
Qin Ye hadn't logged into the big account for a long time and forgot to be invisible for a while. As a result, an official golden flashing announcement caused a sensation on World Channel. After half a minute, World Channel was still queuing up to worship the senior sister of Emei.
Qin Ye blocked the World Channel directly, and his hand speed burst out and sent a line of words in the QQ group "Wulin Professional Lianmeng"-
"Luxiang speed, ring number 1780, password 78789."
Previously, Xiao Sijing discovered a bug in the new weapon data in Emei in the experience server and submitted it to the official. The official repaired the weapon before opening a new zone today. Qin Ye wanted to play a few games to try the effect of the new weapon. It just so happened that several familiar professional players also said that they were idle tonight, so they might as well try the new weapon, so Qin Ye made an appointment with them to go to the game to play a few games of the ring.
The Lu Xiang who Qin Ye called in the group, id "Flying Heroes of Lu", the deputy captain of the Tongque Team, and is also the youngest top god in the entire professional league - he just celebrated his 18th birthday a few days ago.
The league has specially revised a regulation for him: players under the age of 18 are not allowed to participate.
Before the fifth season, the league stipulates that adult players over the age of 18 must participate in the competition as professional players. Underage players under the age of 18 can only be trained in the youth training camp and can only participate after they are over 18 years old.
——It was only when the genius young man Lu Xiang appeared that this rule was completely overturned.
At the suggestion of Liu Chuan, the league's senior management held a special meeting to discuss, and finally lowered the 18-year-old limit to 16-year-old.
Lu Xiang participated in the competition at the age of sixteen and became a god in one year!
Speaking of which, Lu Xiang's path to the gods was facilitated by Liu Chuan.
At that time, the fifteen-year-old Lu Xiang joined the Huaxia Guild in an online game. The president of the Huaxia Guild found that this guy was very fast and recommended him to interview in Huaxia youth training camp. Lu Xiang happily ran to the Huaxia team and successfully entered the Huaxia team's youth training camp through the assessment. At that time, Liu Chuan had already led the Huaxia team to create a brilliant record of the annual Grand Slam. Xiao Lu Xiang was very afraid of life at that time. When he saw everyone in the team, he called him seniors. Moreover, this guy was a super crazy person. He looked like he had never woken up all day long. He could even lie on the table and fall asleep halfway through the game...
A fifteen-year-old child is thin and small, and he is confused all day long, and he looks unreliable at first glance...
So, the person in charge of the training camp directly sent Lu Xiang a bunch of videos and a bunch of basic training programs, asking him to practice slowly first. Lu Xiang was fumbled around there in a daze...
Later it was another chance.
During a winter vacation offseason, Lu Xiang ran to the imperial capital alone. The subway line in the imperial capital was dazzling. Lu Xiang was a super crazy person again. He took the wrong direction of the subway. When he was about to change the line halfway, the last subway bus stopped running. Lu Xiang stood alone on the street and blew the cold wind. He was pitifully unable to get a taxi, so he had to open the QQ group for help: "Are there any seniors in the imperial capital? I'm lost..."
As the captain of China, Liu Chuan was in Beijing again. When he saw this news, he bubbled up in the group: "Where are you?"
Lu Xiang sent a tearful expression: "Captain, I've stopped running halfway through the subway. I'm now... I don't know what the name of this street is. There is a self-service bank opposite, and there is a company next to it..."
I talked in a daze for a long time, but still couldn't explain where he was.
Liu Chuan had no choice but to say what subway station you got off at!
"...I forgot, I'll go back and take a look." Lu Xiang quickly ran back to the subway station and took a look. This time he finally made it clear, "Captain, how should I get to get a taxi? It looks very deserted here, there is no taxi or bus stop."
Liu Chuan said with a headache: "You wait for me at exit a of the subway station, and I'll drive to pick you up!"
Everyone in the conversation group saw it, and a group of people were silly laughing at the newcomer of the Chinese team, Lu Xiang, is a super crazy person.
Liu Chuan was so surprised when he saw Lu Xiang.
The thin little child, whose height is estimated to be less than 1.6 meters, was red from the cold, and was jumping there, rubbing his hands and stomping his feet. The ungrown child's head only reached his chest, and his eyes were shiny. When he saw Liu Chuan, he smiled and waved: "Captain, I'm here!"
When the young man smiled, two cute little tiger teeth appeared in his mouth.
...Is this a newcomer to our team?
Liu Chuan was a little worried at the time. What professional league is such a young child coming to play? Did his parents allow it? As the captain, he didn't pay attention to this matter at all. It was really the captain's dereliction of duty.
In fact, Lu Xiang had only been in the China team for three months, and Liu Chuan happened to be competing in other places, so it was normal for him not to pay attention to the extra newcomers in the training camp.
Because it was too late at that time, Liu Chuan simply took Lu Xiang to live at home.
Professor Liu Boyuan saw that the child brought back by his son was actually playing games, so he immediately frowned and asked, "How old are you?"
Lu Xiang replied obediently: "Uncle, I am fifteen years old."
Professor Liu frowned even more: "You are just fifteen years old and go to play games. Do your parents know?"
Lu Xiang scratched his head and said, "My parents passed away when I was very young. I was raised by my sister. I had a bad grades in school and definitely couldn't get into college. I was OK in playing games and had a very fast hand speed. I wanted to be a professional player, so my sister said I would give me a try..."
Liu Chuan couldn't help asking: "Your sister agreed to drop out of school and play the game?"
Lu Xiang replied seriously: "Well, my sister can play games too. She knows a lot about this, so she agrees to go to the China Team."
Professor Liu's eyes swept over, and Liu Chuan felt guilty when his father saw him, so he hurriedly took the child to the room upstairs.
To be honest, he had been the captain for so long and only Lu Xiang, and he suddenly felt guilty of "he did not fulfill his responsibilities."
Liu Chuan borrowed his sister's laptop, turned on two computers at the same time, and asked Lu Xiang to go to the arena to play several games with him - he didn't know if he didn't fight, and he was shocked when he hit, and the child's speed... was comparable to his!
However, this guy obviously does not have a deep understanding of the game and does not have enough experience. He cannot turn the basic hand speed into a real effective hand speed. Once his fingers are fast, he will press his hands randomly and make a fool of himself.
Liu Chuan abused Lu Xiang for ten games. Lu Xiang lowered his head embarrassedly and said, "Captain, am I too fucked?"
Liu Chuan smiled and said, "You are really too naughty now...but it may not be the case in the future."
Liu Chuan closed the computer and walked to the young boy: "Don't be discouraged first, you are very talented and have a lot of room for improvement."
——The genius boy.
This is the conclusion that Liu Chuan and Lu Xiang came to after ten games.
Looking at the fifteen-year-old boy in front of him, he suddenly had the urge to accept an apprentice and give all his own gifts.
This young boy who died early but has always been strong and optimistic, a little obsessed with the road and a little confused, made Liu Chuan feel very distressed.
It actually takes a lot of courage to come to play games at such a young age. Many people in the e-sports circle do not recognize it. Players without fame cannot make much money. Moreover, the careers of e-sports players are limited. It is the peak period when they are 18 to 24 years old. After 24 years old, many people's condition has declined and their speed has decreased, and they have to retire. The way out after retirement is also a big problem.
The real society is cruel. In a society where college students are flooded, it is easy to imagine how difficult it is for a high school graduate to find a job...
Lu Xiang didn't even graduate from high school, so he came to play games and obviously bet on everything he had. Once he couldn't succeed, he wouldn't even be able to gain a foothold in this highly competitive society.
——Since you have chosen this path, let me help you.
Liu Chuan smiled and said, "Lu Xiang, why not accept you as an apprentice?"
"..." Lu Xiang was shocked.
He opened his mouth and widened his glasses, as if he was hit by a five million lottery ticket, and he couldn't believe it at all.
What did the captain just say? He actually wanted to accept him as his apprentice? Many people admired the Sichuan God to accept him as his apprentice?
Liu Chuan looked at the young boy's big eyes, couldn't help but smile, stretched out his hand to rub his head and said, "How is it? I'm several years older than you, and I have a lot of experience in competitions than you. Is he still the captain of the Chinese team... Is he qualified to be your master?"
Lu Xiang immediately nodded and pounded garlic: "Enough enough! So enough! Master!!"
Liu Chuan smiled and said, "Then from now on, you will be my eldest disciple?"
Lu Xiang was so excited that his eyes were about to burst into tears, "Yes! Master!"
Liu Chuan rubbed his head and whispered: "However, don't tell anyone about this for the time being. After returning to the team, you continue to call me the captain, remember to be more low-key. I accepted you as my disciple as soon as you entered the team. Other youth training camps may be jealous, which is not good for you. I will not guide you specifically in the team. After the training is over at night, remember to go online, and I will teach you separately."
Lu Xiang was almost crying excitedly, and immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at the rice.
Liu Chuan said: "I accept you as an apprentice, not because I sympathize with you, but because you work hard, brave, and have the talent to play games..."
Liu Chuan paused, met the young man's eyes, smiled and said, "As long as you are willing to work hard, one day, you will stand at the same height as me, and even surpass me."
Liu Chuan said this very calmly, but Lu Xiang thought that the captain was just comforting him.
At the same height as the God of Chuan? At that time, he didn't even dare to think about it...
***
A year later, Liu Chuan suddenly submitted an application to the Professional League, asking the league to change the age limit for professional league players to 16 years old, and took Lu Xiang directly to the professional league headquarters, allowing Lu Xiang to play a few games in person for them to see.
——Everyone was shocked.
——This is definitely a rare genius boy!
Liu Chuan said: "E-sports players' careers are very limited. Since there are talented teenagers, why use these rules and regulations to limit their chances of shining? Today there will be Lu Xiang, and there will be more talented teenagers in the future. If they are forced to waste for a few years just because of age restrictions, it will be unfair to them."
The league chairman and senior executives discussed for a long time and finally agreed to Liu Chuan's suggestion.
In the fifth season, the Wulin Professional League changed the rules and adjusted the age limit of contestants to sixteen years old. The entire e-sports circle was shocked!
***
The day Lu Xiang left the Chinese team, he looked at his master with red eyes in Liu Chuan's office.
Liu Chuan smiled and touched his head: "Go, the Tongque Team will give you a better stage."
The Chinese team masters back then were all top players, and there was no chance for Lu Xiang, a newcomer, to play. Therefore, Liu Chuan took the initiative to send Lu Xiang out and sent him to the Tongque Team, which was eager to seek talents because of the retirement of the main force.
For newcomers like Lu Xiang who transfer teams, the signing fee they will definitely not be high. The manager of Tongque Team offered Lu Xiang an annual salary of 60,000 yuan and 5% of the team's advertising endorsement share for Liu Chuan. The future bonus will naturally depend on the situation of the game. This price is actually very high for a newcomer who has never played in the game.
Lu Xiang is a confused worm and has no idea about these things. Even Liu Chuan helped him sign the contract.
The master arranged for him to go to the Tongque Team. Although he was reluctant to leave, he also knew that there were too many strong people in China, so it would be difficult for him to have a chance to play in China.
Liu Chuan brought Lu Xiang to the Tongque Team and said only to Shao Zehang, the captain of the Tongque Team: "Captain Shao, this is my personal apprentice, and I will give it to you in the future."
Lu Xiang hid behind his master and secretly glanced at the frosty Captain Shao.
After Liu Chuan left, Shao Zehang glanced at Lu Xiang coldly and said seriously and calmly: "It's gold, there will always be a chance to shine when staying in the Tongque Team. It's a waste, and I won't take more care of you for your master's sake. You can do it yourself."
