The Failed Knight of Full-Time Master

【Transition Chapter】

After learning that the Thunder successfully won the game in the second round, the Thunder's social media platforms were immediately filled with comments.

There were also a lot of Thunder fans celebrating on the platform.

This is the first time that Thunder Team is so lively.

The last time the Thunder team became popular was when Chu Yunxiu announced that he was joining the Thunder.

Now the Thunder team is only one step away from the championship trophy.

Therefore, fans of the Thunder are now beginning to look forward to the Thunder winning their first championship since the team was founded.

Originally, the commotion should have gradually stabilized about ten minutes after the Thunder Team defeated Zhou Zekai and the moment the game ended.

But many Thunder fans were so scared of seeing the Thunder lose to Samsara that they didn't have the courage to click on the game results until long after the game was over.

But after seeing the Thunder Team defeat the Samsara Team 22-11, these fans who came in later also started a new wave of carnival.

When the Thunder players were on the bus returning to the hotel, Thunder team owners Lin Xia and Chen Xi were also on the bus.

The celebration of the Thunder players on the other side seemed to be unheard by these two people.

"Now, I have to give them a red envelope."

Lin Xia glanced at the contestants behind her and said.

"Yes."

Chen Xi also nodded.

"How about I do it this time?"

Then Chen Xi said to Lin Xia.

"You're coming? You should save your little money for your wife."

Lin Xia laughed disdainfully.

Lin Xia knew clearly that Chen Xi was a real henpecked husband.

If he really wanted to take out some money to reward the contestants, it would probably drain all of Lao Chen's private savings from the past few years.

The most important thing is that Lin Xia doesn’t think that Chen Xi’s private money can be considered a reward.

"Ugh."

Chen Xi sighed helplessly.

"You really have the money to do whatever you want."

Chen Xi said.

"Doesn't your family care about your money?"

Chen Xi recalled that some time ago, Lin Xia seemed to have been arranged by her family to have a blind date, and now it seemed that the relationship had come to fruition.

"No matter what, she is much richer than me. She is the only daughter of the family and has no shortage of money."

Lin Xia said with some envy.

Seeing Lin Xia like this, Chen Xi also knew that the other party must be really rich, otherwise Lin Xia would not be so envious.

After returning to the hotel where the Thunder team was seated, Lin Xia also watched the Thunder players get off the car.

"Brother, wake up."

Chu Yunxiu was also shaking An Ning's shoulders.

Although Chu Yunxiu wanted An Ning to sleep a little longer, there was nothing she could do as the time had already come.

"Go back to your room and sleep."

Seeing An Ning open her eyes sleepily, Chu Yunxiu also spoke.

"It's okay. It will be better after taking a nap."

An Ning said somewhat exhausted.

To be honest, when you play a game with all your strength like this, the most tiring time is often not during the game, but the relaxation time afterwards.

Just like now.

Now An Ning felt uncomfortable all over, her wrists were sore and her shoulders were stiff, but she felt much better after taking a short nap.

"Well, but you have to get a good rest tonight and don't hang out with Xiao Dai and Lao Fang."

Chu Yunxiu warned.

"Okay, okay, I understand."

An Ning was a little helpless.

Why is Chu Yunxiu as nagging as an old lady today?

"It seems that you are very dissatisfied."

Chu Yunxiu rolled up her sleeves as she spoke.

Just when An Ning thought Chu Yunxiu was going to punch him, Chu Yunxiu directly pulled An Ning up.

"Slow down, don't fall."

Chu Yunxiu said.

Seeing Chu Yunxiu's cautious look, An Ning felt even more helpless.

"I'm just a little tired, I'm not disabled."

An Ning said helplessly.

"Just in case, listen to me."

Chu Yunxiu ignored An Ning's opinion and dragged An Ning back to the hotel.

Chen Xi and Lin Xia, who were sitting in the car and had not left yet, looked at each other.

Then the two of them smiled and got off the bus.

After returning to the hotel, Lin Xia also came to the lobby after everyone changed into their private clothes.

Amid everyone's puzzled gazes, Lin Xia simply clapped her hands.

After Lin Xia clapped her hands, the hall, which had been a little noisy, suddenly became quiet.

"The Thunder made it to the finals. I am very satisfied with this result."

Lin Xia looked at the people around her.

And several people from Lei Ting were also looking at Lin Xia.

Because they knew that when Lin Xia said that, there must be something wrong.

"So I decided to give you an extra six months' salary as a bonus."

After Lin Xia's voice fell, even louder cheers broke out in the hall.

"Long live the boss!"

Although the Thunder players’ salaries have increased this season, these professional players of the Thunder actually have no financial pressure themselves.

But that doesn't mean they don't want money.

After all, who would complain about earning little money?

After hearing what Lin Xia said, Chen Xi on the other side was also a little helpless.

What Lin Xia said was indeed right. The little money she had was indeed incomparable to an extra half year's salary.

"Okay, let's all go celebrate. Don't play too late."

Lin Xia also waved her hand and spoke.

Although Lin Xia also thought about taking the lead in bringing them out to play, after thinking about it, she realized that there was indeed an age gap between Lin Xia and these contestants, so Lin Xia decided not to make things worse.

While the Thunder players were looking for places to celebrate, Lin Xia bought a can of beer from the vending machine in the hotel. When she was about to open it, she turned around and found that An Ning and Chu Yunxiu had not left.

Therefore Lin Xia was also very surprised.

After all, even Xiao Shiqin, who had always been "abstinent", went out to play with Fang Xuecai and the others.

However, Chu Yunxiu and An Ning actually stayed in the hotel.

"Why don't you two leave?"

Lin Xia took a can of beer and sat opposite the two of them.

"So tired, so exhausted."

An Ning shook his head.

Now that An Ning is here, his body can no longer keep up with his thoughts.

Now, An Ning just wants to lie on the sofa and doesn't want to go anywhere.

"If I'm not going, then I won't go either. It just so happens that I can watch the previously cached video today."

After the playoffs started, Chu Yunxiu hasn't found time to watch the TV series she's following.

Today is a good day to indulge myself.

That's why Chu Yunxiu said this.

"Oh, you two."

Lin Xia took a sip of beer.

"However, you still have to be careful and don't try too hard." Lin Xia warned again.

Competing for the championship is what professional players must do, but the prerequisite is that they cannot really overdraw their bodies to do it.

To put it bluntly, with the current strength of the Thunder team, they can win the championship even if not this season, next season or the season after next.

Therefore, there is no need to be so impatient.

"Having said that, paying six months' salary all at once is a bit much."

An Ning asked at this time.

Although in An Ning's eyes, Lin Xia is just a rich oil man.

But as a bonus, it has been open for six months, and there are now nine people in the Thunder team's first team. If you calculate carefully, the total is about two to three million.

"That's not a lot. If you can win the championship this season, I don't mind opening it one more year."

Lin Xia said.

"Besides, I can definitely earn it back."

Lin Xia said quite confidently.

Lin Xia is not very good at playing Glory, but as the boss of the Glory team, Lin Xia is definitely better than the bosses of most teams in the league.

No matter how much money he spent, Lin Xia would always be able to earn back the money he spent in the end.

For example, if the contestants were given an extra half year's salary today, if the public relations people under Lin Xia could make good use of it, it would bring a lot of attention.

If it is run well, the traffic it brings in is definitely not comparable to two or three million.

Giving bonuses to team members can not only be used for hype, but also gain the gratitude of the players. Why not do it?

Compared to Boss Yanyu who deliberately creates gimmicks to attract attention, Lin Xia is better at using the cards in his hand to increase the fame of his team.

There is already a gap between the two at this point.

"It seems that you are not very confident that we can win the championship this season."

An Ning looked at Lin Xia and said.

"Because I've been with Happy before, and I know how terrifying Ye Xiu is."

Lin Xia put the empty beer can in his hand aside and said lightly.

"Heh, it seems like Ye Xiu left a very scary impression on you."

An Ning also found it a little funny.

Lin Xia's influence on An Ning has always been a little off, but today, Lin Xia did show a rare solemn expression.

So An Ning also found it interesting.

Even Chu Yunxiu, who was recalling what point she had watched in the TV series on the other side, put down her phone and looked at the two of them after hearing the conversation between An Ning and Lin Xia.

"That guy is obviously almost 30 years old, but his operation and reaction are no different from that of a 20-year-old young player."

Lin Xia touched her chin.

"That's not quite right. He's stronger than a twenty-year-old player. To be honest, he's probably in about the same state as you and Zhou Zekai. If you want to defeat him, you either have to wait until he can't hold on any longer, or come up with a surprise move and get rid of Ye Xiu first."

Lin Xia said very seriously.

Although Lin Xia’s performance in Honor is average, her understanding of Honor is actually quite good.

"Ah."

An Ning also nodded.

According to the script, this season is about Ye Xiu returning to the top.

It might not be that easy to defeat Ye Xiu at this moment.

"Just do your best."

An Ning said.

However, even if An Ning and Xiao Shiqin were prepared to be defeated by Xingxin this season, it did not mean that they gave up.

After all, this might be the last time he wants to challenge Ye Xiu.

The last time he retired was because of the pressure from the Excellent Era team, which forced Ye Xiu to leave.

But this time, Xingxin will definitely not force Ye Xiu to leave, so what Ye Xiu said about retiring after this season is most likely true.

If Ye Xiu retires, An Ning and Xiao Shiqin will never be able to compete with Ye Xiu in professional competitions again.

Even if I meet him in the arena in the game later...

But by that time, Ye Xiu probably won't be able to play in the same condition as a professional player.

"It's a good thing to fight, but be careful not to overdo it. You are still young and there is still time to win the championship."

Lin Xia said.

"Don't worry, we understand."

An Ning also said.

"Also, for the World Invitational Tournament, three of us were selected."

At this time, Lin Xia spoke again.

"Me, Sister Yunxiu, and Captain Xiao."

An Ning said.

"Yes."

Lin Xia nodded.

In fact, this is also expected.

After all, An Ning, Xiao Shiqin, and Chu Yunxiu are all the best in their respective roles.

Even among the All-Stars, the status of these three is relatively high.

What's more, the selection of players for the World Invitational is not decided by voting like the All-Stars, so the scores of An Ning and the other two are actually quite high.

"Well, now we are the only two teams left, Happy and I. The players from other teams that were selected for the World Invitational Tournament have already left for City B."

Lin Xia said.

Although the list of candidates for the World Invitational has not been released, it can be seen from the activeness of the players of the major teams.

For example, Huang Shaotian, who normally should appear in the group every day, has been silent recently. It is obvious that Huang Shaotian has been selected for the World Invitational Tournament list and is probably training in City B now.

"Okay, I won't disturb you guys from resting. I'm going to go for a walk with Lao Chen. You two should go to bed early too."

Lin Xia stood up and threw the beer can in his hand into the trash can next to him.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Before Lin Xia left, she took one last look at An Ning and said.

"I am your employee. How can a boss tell his employees that they have worked hard?"

An Ning looked at Lin Xia helplessly and said.

"I'm different from other bosses. I'm a good boss."

Lin Xia said, pushed open the door of the hotel room and walked out.

Chen Xi also looked at An Ning, shook his head, and followed her out.

"This guy is hopeless."

An Ning didn't know what to say.

Then An Ning looked at Chu Yunxiu, who was lying on the sofa and did not look like a lady at all.

"I'm going back to my room, are you here or?"

An Ning asked.

"Hey, are you planning to invite me to your room?"

Chu Yunxiu raised her head and looked at An Ning who was standing in the corridor.

"What are you thinking about?"

An Ning sighed and looked at Chu Yunxiu speechlessly.

"Forget it, I'll stay here and you can have a good rest."

After hearing An Ning's words, Chu Yunxiu also spoke.

After saying good night to Chu Yunxiu, An Ning returned to her room to rest.

In this match against the Samsara Team, An Ning's current condition is indeed a bit bad.

However, there are still a few days until the finals, which is enough time to calm down and readjust.

After returning to the Thunder base, the Thunder team quickly entered a state of preparation.

Although they defeated the Samsara Team, the Thunder still cannot relax their training.

After all, there are still at least two games to go before the trophy.

The Xingxin team is a more difficult team to deal with than the Samsara team.

Therefore, all Thunder members need to pay extra attention. (End of this chapter)
