Full-time: The Strongest Sniper

Several days have passed since those tech streamers came to challenge the competition, and Chen Guo also started streaming that day, but so far she is only streaming the evening's PK and Xiao Nai's guidance match.

After all, Xiao Nai and his teammates are professional players; they're too busy training to have time for live streaming. Xiao Nai's plan is to wait until veterans like Wei Chen and Zhang Jiale retire, then simply transfer them to Happy's live streaming department. Happy will handle account management, short video editing, promotion, and so on, while Wei Chen and Zhang Jiale can focus solely on live streaming. As for their earnings, whether they'll continue as professional players, receive a buyout salary from Happy, or have their earnings distributed proportionally, can all be negotiated.

After all, Xiao Nai wasn't entirely clear on these matters, so he would have someone from the company come and discuss it with him.

Ultimately, with live streaming platforms already established, retired professional players like Zhang Jiale, with their established fame and recognition, are certainly not to be overlooked by Xiao Nai. Furthermore, if Xiao Nai and his team succeed, they could change the global landscape where retired professional players often face unemployment.

The Happy Internet Cafe has been quite quiet these past few days. Few people come there for sparring anymore; most come to play tutorial matches with Xiao Nai. Xiao Nai has simply taken on the role of a tutorial streamer, playing tutorial matches while streaming. He streams for one to two hours each day, depending on when the wild bosses spawn.

Following their previous defeat in a technical livestream, Team Happy has gained considerable recognition. Combined with livestreaming, their popularity has continued to grow, and many people online now know of their existence, with a significant number of fans in their livestream rooms. Some fans are even expressing sympathy for Happy, saying they wish they had debuted a year earlier or later, believing that if they had avoided Team Excellent Era, Excellent Era would have had a better chance.

Neither Xiao Nai nor Chen Guo said much about these comments. After all, if Excellent Era hadn't been relegated, their lives would have been much easier.

As for those who were considered "face-slappers" by Excellent Era, they haven't dared to show up in internet cafes for a while now. After all, they now have a fairly general understanding of the strength of Happy's team, and they won't come over until they find a stronger opponent.

Xiao Nai and his team didn't care about this, since in Xiao Nai's opinion, the usefulness of these Excellent Era face-slapping fans had already been squeezed dry.

However, Happy became a special hotspot, with some Glory entertainment streamers coming to Xiao Nai from time to time to spar and provide guidance. But these were all arranged by Xiao Nai, since as the largest shareholder of the live streaming platform, it was not a problem for the platform to invite some streamers.

This has further boosted the popularity of Team Happy.

As Xiao Nai appeared more and more frequently, his fame grew. After all, Xiao Nai had a record of defeating professional players, and his status as the mentor of the national goddess Qiao Jingjing was enough to attract attention.

Even Sister Ling gave a boost by posting on Qiao Jingjing's official Weibo account that her mentor was going live and inviting people to watch her mentor's PK battle.

As a result, Xiao Nai received invitations from various teams during this period. Of course, these teams did not include Blue Rain, Tiny Herb, Tyranny, and other teams that were familiar with Xiao Nai, since they all knew that Xiao Nai would come back with Ye Xiu.

Of course, given Xiao Nai's immense popularity recently, players from various teams were interviewed about their opinions on this newcomer. The professional players generally agreed on his assessment: he's incredibly strong. After all, they have more information than the general public. Xiao Nai didn't just defeat Jiang Botao at the All-Star event; he also defeated Yu Feng of Blue Rain, who is currently Glory's top Berserker, yet suffered a crushing defeat. Furthermore, Xiao Nai's frequent appearances in professional player chat groups and his seamless communication with these top players demonstrate his undeniable strength.

Therefore, their evaluation of Xiao Nai was that he was a very promising and strong player, and they were very optimistic about his future...

Those familiar with Xiao Nai, such as Huang Shaotian, described him much more extensively. Yu Wenzhou and others even admitted that if Xiao Nai entered the professional scene, they would immediately begin devising tactics to counter him. After all, Xiao Nai's incredible gathering ability was extremely unfavorable to Yu Wenzhou and Wang Jiexi, both mage-type players.

However, Zhang Xinjie and his friends did not reveal that Xiao Nai had defeated Xiao Shiqin, Zhang Jiale, and Su Mucheng's teacher in succession. Otherwise, it would be too shocking for a professional player who had almost swept the top spots in the entire gunner category. In that case, would the gun king be Xiao Nai or Zhou Zekai?
The main issue is that Xiao Nai hasn't yet broken into the professional scene. If he gets too much attention right now, it could backfire and become a case of overpraising him.

This is exactly what's troubling Xiao Nai now. After all, he never really realized he was a celebrity. But one day, he was seen by a regular customer while strolling downstairs, and Xiao Nai instantly experienced the helplessness of being a celebrity. From then on, Xiao Nai always wore the same outfit as Qiao Jingjing whenever he went out.

"As expected of the vice-captain, his popularity is already so strong even before entering the professional league. If he enters the professional league and crushes everyone else, wouldn't he be at his peak right from the start?" Wei Chen said with a hint of teasing as he looked at the various reports about Xiao Nai on the screen.

"Old Wei, if you feel bored, just tell me, and I'll give you more training assignments right now," Xiao Nai said, rolling his eyes at the other man. He hadn't expected that before the team had even become truly famous, he himself had become popular first. It could be said that Xiao Nai's popularity was entirely due to the efforts of various professional players. After all, the reporters' inquiries to the various teams were all about Xiao Nai as a person, not about the team he belonged to.

After all, some people believe that Xiao Nai's entry into the professional league is inevitable. If he does have the strength he has shown, then even if his team fails to advance in the end, other teams will invite him to join the professional league.

With Excellent Era in the picture, no one thought Happy could enter the professional league, which is why reporters didn't ask about the team, but only about Xiao Nai.

But as Xiao Nai's fame grew, someone finally found Xiao Nai's team, Happy, in a search on the Challenger League's official website.

At this point, the names and identities of the members of Team Happy were completely exposed to everyone, and a mystery that everyone had been curious about for a long time was also solved.

The netizen who posted the Happy team roster online had circled one of the names.

Meanwhile, the post was titled "Shocking! Qiao Jingjing actually joined such a team. Is this a sign of twisted human nature or moral decay?" (End of Chapter)
