Someone who could make Whisper be unable to forget about them and have Whispers feelings for them unchanged even after three whole years was someone not to be trifled with.


    Shi Luo has always been the scheming sort when it came to Yu Sui and Shi Luo has never hidden it or covered it up. Instead, he would exin clearly to Yu Sui so that he would understand.


    I did it on purpose. I was wearing you down. I was tricking you. It was to make you care about me more.


    Shi Luo looked at Yu Sui and asked in a low voice, ...ying well and snatching away the MVP title from you guys while making you think Im nervous and enjoying your g man considerateness, are these mutually exclusive things?


    Shi Luos eyes were full of his special possessiveness towards Yu Sui, which hed been showing less often. I relied upon your concern for me so that you would take the initiative to give me your room card, so that youd let me kiss and touch you...is that so bad?


    Yu Sui looked down at Shi Luo and smiled.


    It wasnt mutually exclusive and it was fine.


    This direct to your face sense of predation...was very familiar.


    Shi Luo has been like this since he was a child and Yu Sui himself had said so; that the scheming of people who he didnt like was scheming.


    Scheming by the person he liked was called acting spoiled.


    Yu Sui had fallen for this ruse of Shi Luos.


    They say Im good at dating... Yu Sui touched Shi Luos chin and sighed in a low voice, Wait until youre two years older, I bet youre going to be more of a danger than I am.


    Shi Luo lowered his head, rubbed his lips against Yu Suis fingers and murmured, Captain, keep a close watch on me...Dont let me be a danger to others.


    Yu Sui smiled, Dont worry... Im watching you real close.


    Their teammates have changed their clothes and were already waiting in the lounge. Many of the local staff were also there. If they dyed any longer, someone would knock on the door of the locker room. The two of them could no longer enjoy their time alone.


    They had to change into their casual clothes and return to the hotel immediately. .


    It was already winter in the northern hemisphere. If they wore their team uniforms outside they would inevitably freeze to death. yers woulde to the stadium wearing their own clothes and when they get into the warm lounge rooms, thats when they change into their uniforms to y in the match.


    Naturally, they would change back to their own clothes after the game.


    Yu Sui whistled softly at Shi Luo, Who will change first?


    The person who changes clothes first would inevitably be watched the entire way by the other. Shi Luos eyes darkened and he muttered, You.


    Without any dy, Yu Sui pulled off his jacket. He took off his team uniform and hung it up. He followed it with taking off his half sleeved of the inner team shirt. Yu Sui took the thick sweater and put it on with a little smile in his eyes.


    He whispered, Shi Shen...When you change clothes, I keep my eyes closed.


    Shi Luo wasnt going to y gentleman with Yu Sui. He wanted to watch.


    Yu Sui was also quite generous. He hooked the chair over with his foot, sat down and changed all his clothes. He quickly hung up his team uniform and rubbed Shi Luos head, Ill wait for you outside. Hurry up.


    Their brief intimate time in the middle of their intensepetition period ended. Shi Luo changed back into his own clothes, wrapped himself up in a thick down jacket and went out of the stadium. He boarded the bus along with everyone from the club and headed back to the hotel.


    The double loop of the group stage would finish after twops. The firstp for Group A has ended. There will be two rest days before the next loop.


    These two days were for the teams to summarize their experiences and analyze the other teams in their group so that they could strive for better results in the next loop. Free had no trouble in this aspect.


    After their firstp, whether it was the level of the teams in their group or Shi Luos condition, everyone could already rest assured. Within these two days, Free already began to study the teams from other groups who were basically assured of passing the group stage.


    NSNs Group C was a bit tough but Gu Gan, Wawa and the rest of them yed quite well. They only lost one match to the North American team. They scored two points in the first round. It wont be a big problem to keep this situation going and qualify for the next round.


    The situation in Group D, where Sacred Sword was, was simr to that of Group A. The difference in strength between the teams within the group was quiterge. Sacred Sword was running roughshod over everyone in Group D.


    What made Shi Luo very upset was that the Sacred Sword abused other teams in Group D more severely than they suppressed the teams in their group.


    Sacred Swords yers were really skilled. Relying on their strength, no matter which team in their group they would y against, they would deliberately use that teams best method of y to crush them.


    If their opponent was good at ying a fast game, they would also y a fast game. And then, by means of overwhelming force, they would end the match in ten minutes, not letting the opponent breathe at all.


    If their opponent was good at gueri warfare, they too would y gueri warfare. And then they would win the match with superb technique and perfect rhythm, disying their IQ and their cooperation, showing off to their hearts content.


    As one could well imagine, losing the match in this way, the yers of other teams found their morale copsing somewhat.


    You believed that that was what you were best at but Sacred Sword used the same routine to string you up and beat you. It leaves you with no possible rationalization tofort yourself with.


    After the matches, Sacred Sword would send out a tweet to taunt the teams. [I heard that youre good at ying a fast game? ]


    Now that they were abroad, they ran into these tweets without intentionally seeking them out. Puppy nced at the tweet from the Sacred Sword Club and saidzily to Zhou Huo, You said that we are all viins...Now, do you understand? This is a true viin.


    Although Zhou Huo normally feel a bit too self-satisfied because of his teams great performance, he never dared to seek death up to this extent. Zhou Huo sucked his cheeks in and shook his head.


    The yers are expected to have a backbone and some air of arrogance but theres no need to take it this far, is there? Cant they show a little respect for their opponents? They really are childish and unstable yers...


    they might even end up retiring immediately after being booted out of the World Championships.


    Do you know what their captain said during his interview before thepetition? Really, after watching his interview, I knew that these people didnt consider the other teams in their group as human beings at all. Chen Huo watched the first three BO1 games of Sacred Sword.


    He stretched his body and said, He basically mentioned them all by name and said that more than half the teams in the World Championships were dog sh*t. They dont even have any respect for the strong teams, how can you expect them to have any respect for the teams in the group?


    Of all the team captain interviews before thepetition, Shi Luo only looked at Yu Suis. He hadnt spared a nce at any of the other teams interviews, least of all Sacred Swords.


    When Shi Luo heard this, he grabbed someones tablet ced to the side of the table and opened the leagues official website to search for Sacred Swords pre-match interview.


    Yu Suis pre-match interviewsted less than one minute but Sacred Swords Captainssted a full five.


    Zhou Huo had watched that video before and he hurriedly tried to stop him. Aiya! Whats so interesting about that? Its almost exactly as Chen Huo said.


    Dont waste your time. Arent you about to start your next practice game?


    Old Qiao also frowned, Dont watch it. Im looking for Angel Sword now. Were just about to start.


    Shi Luo pretended not to hear it. He clicked opened the video, a cold look on his face.


    Next to him, Yu Sui was building the map they were going to use for the practice game. He didnt stop Shi Luo.


    Shi Luo hated Sacred Sword and didnt want to even hear his voice. So, he reduced the video sound to the lowest it would go and yed it at double the speed.


    [Looking forward to the World Championship? Not at all. What can we expect from the World Championship? Were not the kind of team that struggles just to get to the World Championships.


    This is just the normal process for our team at the end of each season. ]


    [There are a lot of strong teams in the World Championships this year. Of course, Im not talking about the teams in the group stage. I really dont know what good is there to ying the group stage. ]


    [We didnt analyze any of the teams from the other regions. Theres no need to waste that kind of time. ]


    [We schedule a lot of practice matches with teams from North America. Theyre very strong but then they havent beaten us for a long time. I hope they wont be afraid of meeting us again. ]


    [We yed against all the teams in the Chinese division at beginning of the season and weve never lost. Theres nothing to look forward to. ]


    [Team Free is a bit interesting because a lot of their yers came from our club. ]


    Shi Luos eyes stilled and he pressed pause. He then turned up the audio.


    Shi Luo didnt trust the trantions. The official trantions could have obscured his fierce wording. He wanted to hear the original wording.


    [Whisper did have a splendid time here with us. I hope he doesnt regard those two years here as a humiliation. Hahaha. But then, even if he does, nothing he can do about it.


    There will always be those two years in his professional record that will have our teams name engraved on it. He can never wash it away. ]


    Shi Luos face instantly became cold.


    [Of course I look forward to meeting my old teammates. Afterwards, the results will teach that rebellious Whisper that he made the wrong choice at the beginning of the season. ]


    [I hope the Free team can be stronger and can hold on for longer so that we can meet them. ]


    [Theres nothing to look forward to except for the finals. Were not looking forward to the semifinals and the quarterfinals. Were not interested. ]


    [We are only looking forward to the best of five finals. The group stage and all the stages before the finals are all just stepping stones, the kind you wouldnt use your expensive shoes to step on. Its a waste of our time. ]


    [We only came here to y the finals. Thank you. ]


    That was the end of the interview.


    Shi Luo murmured, There will always be those two years in his professional record that will have our teams name engraved on it. He can never wash it away....


    Chen Huo was silent for a moment and the hatred shed in his eyes. He smiled, Oh baobei-er, Shi Luo! Listen to me, let me tell you already... Our old club isnt really targeting you.


    They treat everyone like this. Dont be affected too much, all right?


    V/\\IssT n0(v)eL/b(i)(n)./ for the b/est novel reading experi/en/ce


    Shi Luo, I promise, Im not kidding with you this time. Puppy looked at Shi Luo with a rare expression of seriousness on his face, Listen to me, Sacred Sword isnt as stupid as you think.


    Ive yed in the World Championships so many times and when ites to trash-talking, Ive never met any team better than Sacred Sword.


    Puppy took the tablet from Shi Luos hand, They disrespect people. Theyre a bunch of worthless nobodies but their trash talk isnt just spouted nonsense. Theyre all said with a purpose. They want to irritate you and provoke you before the game, making you unstable.


    When they beat you, theyll still strike at your self-confidence and provide the haters with something to mock you and curse you. This is their purpose. Dont think theyre purely just cursing at people.


    Yu Sui set the map for the practice match. He pushed the keyboard forward and said, Its true . Dont believe the rumors. Theyre not that brainless.


    When I was in the Holy Sword, they would even provided me with a trash-talking script. What you saw just now, was not necessarily what their captain actually thought. It might have just all been provided by their teams psychoanalyst.


    Yu Sui sneered, Theyre just trying to mess with me.


    Yu Sui turned his gaming chair and looked at Shi Luo. He said, rxed, Ive seen his interview a long time ago and it didnt affect me one bit.


    Shi Luo was silent for a moment, trying to digest the interview with the Sacred Sword. Then, he caught the implied meaning in Yu Suis words. Shi Luo was startled. He narrowed his eyes at Yu Sui and his voice became cold, Your personal interviews...


    Shi Luos throat choked, his tone was not too steady, Your personal interviews, this sh*t club controlled them? Do they even treat people as people? How dare they make you...


    It was also the first time that Old Qiao watched this interview. He became very angry when he heard that. He said furiously, They...


    Shhh... Yu Sui interrupted Old Qiao and said gently to Shi Luo, What did you tell me in the locker room that day? That you werent affect? Have you forgotten?


    Shi Luo suffocated and pursed his lips.


    They really did give me trash talk scripts for every interview. They ordered me read them and make targeted attacks on important opponents, but... Yu Sui said lightly, I never followed them.


    Shi Luo was surprised.


    This time Zhou Huo was even more surprised. Zhou Huo was older than these yers and has more experience. He has made his rounds of various teams and has more knowledge about their dirty practices. He was surprised.


    This kind of purelymercial team ...you can just refuse what your boss tells you to do?


    Yu Sui said, Yes.


    Chen Huo nodded and saidzily, Its true...Your Yu Shen, even if he was sold, hes still better than their local yers. The boss personally asked him to do things but if hes not happy about it, he wouldnt do it.


    Puppy shrugged, If you dont believe us, go and look through his backlog of interviews from the previous two years to see if Yu Sui ever followed what they said.


    Zhou Huo looked at Yu Sui, dumbstruck, Ho-...how?


    Yu Sui said calmly, Because I wasnt afraid of getting my annual sry deducted.


    Because they needed me to win.


    Because Im the number one medic in the Chinese national server and the Chinese division.


    Because Im the number one medic in the European division. Yu Sui recalled what the Captain of Sacred Sword had said in the interview, and slowly said, There are indeed those two years in my professional resume that have their team logo engraved on.


    I cant get rid of that but this young master didnt sell over himself to them.


    If other team members disobey them, theyll be punished by Sacred Swords club. They will be relegated to sitting on a cold bench, watching over the drinking fountain. Yu Sui had a touch of arrogance in his eyes, ...If I disobeyed them, would they dare let a substitute take over?


    Shi Luo lowered his eyes and slowly began to p.


    Old Qiao grinned. He pped the table hard and yelled happily, Nice!


    Trantors note:


    Captain, keep a close watch on me...Dont let me be a danger to others.


    (-////-) *Gulp*. Stop it, Shi Luo. Youre making me blush. Haha
