The King's Avatar: The Sword Immortal Returns

Chapter 147 World Invitational Tournament Invitational Letter!!! National Team Training Camp Begins!
In Guan Rongfei's words, this was already the highest-stat silver weapon he had ever created for a swordsman.
The third form is called the [Dark God] form. In this form, the [One Thought God and Demon] is a greatsword, boasting the strongest attack power among the three forms. However, its attack speed is also the lowest of the three.

It's worth noting that there's a limitation, though not strictly a restriction, that allows transformation from the first form to the more powerful second and third forms: a combo count of 5 is required to unlock them. Guan Rongfei has kept this limitation to a minimum, so it's practically negligible.

Just as Mo Qian was about to leave, Guan Rongfei called him back and said:

"There's one more thing: during a match, once you transform into your second or third form, you can only transform between those two forms; you can't revert to your first form—"

Guan Rongfei's words were as good as saying nothing. If you can use a stronger second or third form, why would you use the first form? That would be stupid.
Guan Rongfei strengthened the second and third forms of [One Thought God and Demon], but in return, weakened the first form. The current first form of [One Thought God and Demon] only has the stats of an orange-tier weapon; someone unfamiliar with the game might mistake it for an orange-tier weapon held by Mo Qian.

"Your [One Thought God and Demon] is the most overpowered one, Lao Mu. Don't pretend to be a little white rabbit in front of me; it's pointless—"

Ye Xiu smiled as he looked at Mo Qian. Mo Qian's training session ended the fastest, not because Mo Qian hadn't trained seriously, but precisely because he had trained diligently. The remaining time was Mo Qian's free time.
Mo Qian could use this time to study new techniques. Five minutes later, Ye Xiu's training also ended. Ye Xiu and Mo Qian's training was mainly to maintain their form.
Ye Xiu and Mo Qian are already top-tier professional players. It's difficult for them to improve further if they play against other top players or if they have a sudden inspiration and create a new technique. Only battles with other top players or moments of inspiration that allow them to create a new technique can improve their skills.

"Boom boom boom!"

A rapid knocking came at the door, and before Baozi could open it, the door was already open.
Baozi looked closely and realized, "Isn't this the delivery guy?"

"Hello, is this Team Happy? May I ask who is Ye Xiu, the captain of Team Happy?"

"Boss Ye! Someone's looking for you!"

Ye Xiu put down his keyboard. The arena had just opened, and Mo Qian, understanding the situation, took over. Actually, Mo Qian had wanted to try out Ye Xiu's Thousand Chance Umbrella for a while. Although Mo Qian didn't know how to use it, his hand speed was fast!

With so many skills available to free-to-play players, even if he just smashes his opponent, Mo Qian can kill them with sheer force. He just needs to be careful with the accuracy of his skills.
Of course, this playstyle is only effective against amateur or online game players in arenas. If you encounter top-tier professional players, it will definitely not be enough, and you might even get completely crushed.

"Hello, I'm Ye Xiu, the captain of Team Happy. How can I help you?"

The deliveryman handed the small package to Ye Xiu, had Ye Xiu sign it, and left without a trace.

"what is this?"

While Mo Qian was dominating the opposing arena players, Ye Xiu used a utility knife to open the package.
"This is--"

There were six gilded invitations in total, with exquisitely crafted gilded embroidery on the envelopes.

The black and gold envelope clearly stated:

To Ye Xiu, Mo Qian, Tang Rou, Baozi, and Su Mucheng

Invitation letter for national team training camp —

The same situation is occurring repeatedly in several clubs.
Within the Tyranny team, Zhang Jiale, Han Wenqing, and Zhang Xinjie stared at the invitation in their hands, lost in thought.
"How many people do you think received this invitation?" "I estimate quite a few."

Chu Yunxiu and Li Hua, members of the Misty Rain team, also received invitations.

Team Blue Rain, including Yu Wenzhou and Huang Shaotian, stared blankly at the invitation.
Team Tiny Herb, Wang Jiexi and Gao Yingjie looked at the invitation; it seemed the master and apprentice were going together.

Yang Cong, Team 301 Degrees —

…………

Many players from various teams were recruited, including retired players like Xu Bin, who was also brought in, seemingly as a coach for the Knights team.

"So, Lao Ye, have you made up your mind yet—are we going or not?"

Mo Qian watched Ye Xiu pacing back and forth, constantly looking at the invitation. Mo Qian's head was spinning from Ye Xiu's constant turning, but Ye Xiu kept turning it.

Unfortunately, there's no way around it. Honor of Kings hasn't officially announced the cancellation or postponement of the tenth season's regular season yet, and Team Happy's roster depth isn't enough—this just means losing five of their key players.

Ye Xiu, Mo Qian, Su Mucheng, Baozi, Tang Rou
If these five players leave, how are we supposed to compete in the remaining matches? Season 10 is basically over.

"Isn't there still me?"

Old Wei suddenly appeared, his determined gaze fixed on Ye Xiu and Mo Qian.

Ye Xiu knew that Wei would never let him down in crucial moments, but that would definitely put immense pressure on Wei, and they might not even make the playoffs in the tenth season. All the pressure would then be on Wei's shoulders.

Ye Xiu was worried that by the time he and Mo Qian returned, Lao Wei would be completely drained.

"Old Wei, are you serious?"

Old Wei didn't speak, but his eyes remained unwavering.
"Go ahead and fight for the country with peace of mind. I will protect the glory of Team Happy! Don't worry, Lao Ye. I estimate that almost all the top professional players in the country will be called up, so the strength of all the teams will drop significantly. I think no one will refuse the invitation to join the national team, right?"

Old Wei is absolutely right. All the professional players who received the invitations are planning to go; it's clearly stated on the invitations.

Going there means you've accepted the country's call-up; your name will appear on the roster, and you'll have the opportunity to participate in the upcoming World Invitational Tournament.
Time is tight, but fortunately, the World Invitational Tournament will be a long event. After the first tournament, players will still have a chance to return for the playoffs, provided their team makes it to the playoffs.

Therefore, the players defending the base need to be carefully selected; they can't afford to come back when their team hasn't even made the playoffs—that would be disastrous!
