<h4>Chapter 1181: Sponsor</h4>
“Stingy?”
Wang Yu had never heard of a hidden meaning behind an invitation card.
Looking at Wang Yu’s expression, Mu Zixianughed helplessly before exining, “The truly respectable professional squads usually receive to and fro air tickets or free lodging while we only receive an admission ticket.”
“F*ck!”
Hearing Mu Zixian’s further exnation, Wang Yu finally understood.
Damn it! While everyone was going to be a participant in the tournament, wasn’t the difference a little too huge?
Inequality was the root of many problems.
The vast difference in treatment between squads was naturally going to make some people unsatisfied with this unadorned discrimination.
While it was true that the professional tournament slogan was that everyone could join, but everyone knew that any spectators heading to watch the tournament live or at home were there to watch the professional experts. Besides their own friends, who would bother about the amateur participants?
Evidently, this slogan was merely like hanging a sheep’s head while selling dog meat. At the end of the day, everyone was fully aware of the positions of these amateur contestants.
Even if these amateur yers got on stage, they were at most be a target for the professional experts to bully. It was merely to let the professional experts put on a good show as an appetiser for the spectators.
An admission ticket in return for a specialised sparring partner.
Even while everyone knew of this intention, it was still the dreams of many ordinary yers to go up against professional experts. If they somehow managed to pull off a victory, wouldn’t that make them famous overnight?
People had always been utilitarian-minded. In conclusion, one was willing to beat someone up while one was willing to be beaten up. This was also the reason why the fes from the Quan Zhen Sect didn’t really like the concept of participating in professional tournaments.
Only an overpowered gaming newbie like Wang Yu would actually take the invitation letter so seriously. In fact, he couldn’t stop thinking about clinching the championship. If it was any other yers, everyone knew what their position was in the tournament.
This was also why Mu Zixian wasn’t particrly impressed or surprised by the invitation letter on Wang Yu’s hand.
Amateur contestants... Letting them on stage was already a charitable act. There was no need to overthink it.
Fortunately, Wang Yu remained pretty optimistic. Even though he was unsatisfied with the way the officials treated the amateurs, the thought of being able topete with these experts got him excited.
Whether it was amateurs or professional yers, it was only reasonable for the weaker ones to be treated coldly by the stronger ones.
Either way, everyone was notcking in money... They would be able to earn it back by selling some of the excess gold they had with them.
Of course, Wang Yu was not the only depressed one. On the very next day when everyone went online, everyone from the Quan Zhen Sect didn’t look too pleased. They had clearly received the invitation letter yesterday too.
This group of sc*mbags had always wanted to take advantage of people so when people treated them this way, they were naturally not feeling too good about it.
This was especially true for Ming Du who mmed the table and cursed, “F*ck this! The Soaring Dragon Game Studios is so sessful and earning so much money yet they are this stingy? How dare they only send me an invitation letter.”
Vainglory also added, “Exactly! I have to take leave just to take part in this tournament yet they are not providing us with free lodging or food? Stingy as hell!”
Frost de suddenly retrieved an abacus out of nowhere and started calcting the total bill, “Given the standard of living at Linhai City, it would cost a bomb even if only the twelve of us are heading there.”
“Damn it! I only have fifty dors for my monthly pocket money so I need your help this time. I will return the excess once I’ve earned enough in the future.” Spring Halo sped his fists towards everyone.
“Ai...”
Everyone sighed with lowered heads but nobody knew whether it was for the depressing life that Brother Spring had or for the fact that they needed to pay for their own expenses.
Only Fearless seemed calm as if he was contemting something.
When everyone was depressed over this matter, Wang Yu suddenly thought of something as he stood up, “How about this? Since I am the team leader, let me pay for all your expenses for this tournament.”
After all, Wang Yu was the one who suggested to participate in this tournament. Eventually, the goal was also beneficial for Wang Yu.
From the very beginning, Wang Yu already had intentions to pay for everything himself.
However, everyone replied almost immediately after hearing this, “Old Bull, you might as well p us in the face by saying that, ha! Which one of us is actuallycking in that little bit of money? We are just feeling slightly indignant about it.”
“Exactly! We belong to the team so why should Uncle Bull pay for everything?”
“So... How should we do this?”
Wang Yu knew that these fes would never stand on ceremony with him but after hearing their replies, Wang Yu was at a loss.
It was indeed more torturous for these fes to not take advantage of a situation than die. When a bunch of lunaticse together to think of a solution, it was actually rtively scary.
“Haha! A bunch of idiots!”
All of a sudden, Fearless suddenlyughed and mocked them.
“Oh? Does the leader of this bunch of idiots have something to say?”
Everyone refuted almost immediately.
Fearless disregarded their mockery as he replied faintly, “I do have some news for all of you.”
Everyone heard him and continued, “Please speak.”
Fearless smiled, “I’ve just talked to a sponsor and he will be forking out money for us to participate in this tournament!”
“Sponsor?”
The moment Fearless said that, everyone couldn’t help but almost choke, “Someone wants to sponsor our amateur squad?”
Sponsors were basically wealthy corporations supporting professional squads.
In this generation of entertainment, the effects of advertising for famous people were not any less effective than with singers or film stars. Signing contracts to help professional experts to help advertise theirpany is amon sight.
However, there was no need to talk about the reputation of a group of yers like the Quan Zhen Sect. To be more specific, they were more infamous than famous.
Who would actually dare to sponsor a squad like them? Is the person sponsoring them okay?
“Of course!” Fearless looked over at Wang Yu and said, “Because we have enough capabilities. The sponsor has said that we are definitely going to win this tournament which was why he chose to sponsor us.”
“Wow! Who is actually that confident in our strength or even know about our strength?” Everyone asked.
Sponsors were always looking at benefits and battle reports. To be able to confidently make such statements about a rtively unknown squad in the professional scenes...
“Is there really a need to ask?” Fearless smiled, “Of course it is Boss Evil Rampage... He would rather keep the goodies within the family as he ced his bets on us. He felt more confident in us than anyone else and I thought it made sense so I agreed.”
“F*ck...”
Everyone became speechless as their eyes fell back on Wang Yu, “Brother Bull, your brother is really much better at managing business than you.”
