Full-time: The Strongest Sniper

"As you all know, we'll eventually face Excellent Era. Right now, the gap between our self-made equipment and theirs is quite large, so it's going to be tricky," Ye Xiu said.

"To put it simply, all the opponents we're facing right now are extremely difficult!" Lou Guanning said with a hint of helplessness. He was so preoccupied with the competition that he was even somewhat distracted when talking to Ye Xiu.

“That’s normal. We watched your matches too. After all, you’ve just entered the professional league, and everything is difficult at the beginning,” Ye Xiu said.

"Although we were mentally prepared for this, it's clear we weren't prepared enough..." Lou Guanning said helplessly. They hadn't expected it to be this difficult...

"Actually, you don't need to be so discouraged. After all, besides the fact that you've just entered the professional league, your opponents in these two matches were indeed quite strong," Ye Xiu said. The objective strength of the opponents should also be taken into account.

In their first match, Yi Zhan Tian Xia faced off against last season's champions, Blue Rain, and their defeat was inevitable. After all, this was the league's way of putting the new team in a tough spot. In the second match, they faced the veteran powerhouse, Yan Yu. Keep in mind that the new season has just begun, which is the time with the least pressure in the entire season. And Chu Yunxiu, without any pressure, is comparable to top players like Wang Jiexi, Han Wenqing, and Huang Shaotian.

Is the title of Glory's number one female player given for nothing? After all, everyone has their own answer as to who is the number one professional player, but when it comes to the number one female player, Chu Yunxiu's position has never been shaken.

Although Chu Yunxiu's Yanyu team has never won a championship or become a powerhouse, they are a formidable force that makes it to the playoffs every season. For such a team, beating a newly entered professional league team should be a piece of cake.

However, it was this match that gave Yizhan a winning start, which is the origin of their current tie-break. In the singles competition, they took the first point. At the time, this victory really boosted the morale of the Yizhan team, but starting from the second match, they were brought back to reality and failed to win a single point.

So, the point they won was selectively forgotten due to their subsequent bad mood, since even with that point, they were still at the bottom of all the teams.

But even under these circumstances, Ye Xiu continued, "And I remember you won a match before, which shows that you have professional-level strength and skill. You just haven't gotten used to playing against professional players yet. How does it feel to play professionally? Isn't it completely different from the feeling of PK with others in the arena before?"

“They are indeed different,” Lou Guanning admitted.

"It's inevitable that your performance will be affected by nervousness and other emotions at the beginning. Just get used to it. You're just going through a phase that everyone goes through," Ye Xiu said.

"Hmm? So, you were quite nervous when you first competed, right?" Lou Guanning asked.

"That's natural." Ye Xiu didn't hide anything.

"Then why did your team still perform so well even when you were nervous?" Lou Guanning asked curiously.

"To paraphrase Xiao Nai, my nervousness doesn't mean they've gotten stronger. Maybe my opponents were even more nervous than me, since we were all newcomers back then," Ye Xiu said with a smile.

"Hahahaha..." Lou Guanning was amused by Ye Xiu's words and burst into laughter in the conference room. His laughter drew resentful looks from the other four, who were still feeling down. After all, their Yizhan team was in such a dire situation; how could the captain still be laughing?

"It's a message from the expert." Lou Guanning showed his phone to everyone.

The four of them naturally knew who Lou Guanning was referring to when he said "god". After all, among the top players in the professional scene, the only one they were familiar with was Ye Qiu. As for Xiao Nai, since Xiao Nai had not yet debuted, if they were to say who the top player was, they would usually mean Ye Xiu.

Everyone turned to look at him. During their brief conversation, Ye Qiu didn't offer any comfort or encouragement, but he clearly pointed out their current problems. Although he still didn't provide a good solution, it reassured them somewhat, letting them know they weren't so bad after all, and that other professional players had experienced the same situation. They weren't anything special, and thinking about it that way, there really wasn't any need to be discouraged.

After everyone calmed down a bit, Lou Guanning and the others remembered that Ye Qiu, the great god, had something to discuss with them, something about equipment. "What was this equipment cooperation you mentioned, great god?" Lou Guanning asked.

“Yes, we would like to form an equipment-sharing cooperation with you,” Ye Xiu said.

"Shared equipment? Master, is your equipment custom-made?" Lou Guanning asked.

“That’s right!” Ye Xiu said.

"Is this kind of thing allowed under the league's rules?" Lou Guanning asked, somewhat surprised.

"I don't recall any clauses regarding that," Ye Xiu said.

"Now that you mention it, it seems the league only stated that characters are prohibited from being traded outside of the transfer period, but equipment can still be changed." Lou Guanning clearly had some knowledge of the professional league's rules.

"Speaking of which, where did you get all those homemade equipment? You kept them well hidden." Ye Xiu asked with a hint of gossip.

"I bought it!"

“Glorious!”

"Thank you for the compliment."

"How about it? Should we cooperate? We can put everyone's homemade equipment together, and both sides can exchange equipment according to the needs of their team members," Ye Xiu said.

Chen Guo, Wei Chen, and Zhang Jiale were all dumbfounded by Ye Xiu's move. "Wow, you can do that?" they thought. Then they looked at Xiao Nai, the one who had first come up with the idea, wondering what was wrong with their vice-captain's brain.

To be honest, the Righteous Slash Team is indeed a very good partner for them.

After all, the Yizhan team's strength is limited. Even if they know your equipment attributes, Xiao Nai and his team can still beat them. Moreover, as a professional team, their matches don't conflict with each other's, so both sides can use them at different times.

Of course, most importantly, although Ye Xiu and Xiao Nai know many people in the professional circle, they are just players, not owners. They do not have the right to control their team's things, only the right to use them.

Ye Xiu also provided an answer to this question when Lou Guanning asked him about it.

After all, in the professional league, Lou Guanning is the only one who is both the owner and the captain...

However, this collaboration would also benefit them, so there was absolutely no need to refuse. Thus, the first shared equipment in Glory's history was born! (End of Chapter)
