Master Tutoring Class

Chapter 161 The Brain (Fourth Update)
Simulated classroom.

Wei Lai sat on the lawn, staring at the [Advanced Courses] panel in front of him, lost in thought.

Currently, he has 110 training points, which is enough to listen to an advanced course.

This advanced course is currently at a turning point.

Defense or offense!

Wei Lai's biggest challenge now is the World Youth Championship in November. They need to go further on the world stage, where they are surrounded by strong opponents, which requires a higher level of ability.

At the very least, based on their current abilities, they are far from being able to bring much improvement to the team.

Maximizing immediate combat effectiveness is the issue Wei Lai needs to consider right now.

Defense is a great option, and Wei Lai has been learning from the defensive end since he started taking lessons.

But as he continued learning, Wei Lai realized a problem.

Defense is not a one-person job!
Even if he is incredibly strong on his own, he cannot solve all the problems in a 90-minute match.

Defense is a team-based, systematic, and multi-person collaborative approach.

It emphasizes discipline and teamwork.

No one can outrun a rolling ball!
Therefore, to achieve overall improvement, we must start with offense.

The best defense is offense; perhaps this is the reason why.

Moreover, I don't know if it's just my imagination, but from the very first lesson, the system has been intentionally or unintentionally guiding me in an offensive direction.

Currently, Wei Lai has acquired three talents: 'Kante's game reading ability,' 'Casemiro's cardio ability,' and 'Beckham's absolute spatial awareness.'

It can be said that, apart from the second item being a genuine physical talent, the other two are consciousness-related talents.

The choice of attack has two branches.

One is technology! The other is awareness!

Wei Lai couldn't help but grin.

technology?
Welai currently has too many technical flaws.

Advanced ball control, advanced fundamentals, ball control, technical movements, footwork frequency, etc.
These things are incredibly complex, and only by advancing them all at once can we make up for our own technological shortcomings.

However, Wei Lai's training score of only 110 points is clearly insufficient.

If you want to quickly increase your combat power, then there is only one answer!

Wei Lai slowly raised his head and looked at one of the many advanced courses.

[Advanced Course, a calm command center approach, including guided passing, space creation, technical movement analysis, organization, and more.]

[Lecturer: XXXXXXXX!]

"That's it!"

Wei Lai slowly stood up, and as he did so, his training points immediately decreased to only 10 points.

Meanwhile, the environment in the simulated course is also gradually changing.

A ray of sunlight shone directly into Wei Lai's eyes, causing him to squint slightly. When his focus returned, he found himself standing in an open-air training field.

"Welcome! My dear student!"

Wei Lai turned his head to look over.

This is a man who is about 170 cm tall, wearing a red and blue striped training uniform. His face is also surrounded by mist, but from the exposed skin, it can be seen that he is a white man.

"Well, I've basically got you under control. How should I put it?" the other person said with a smile. "Congratulations, you've chosen the right course. This course will allow you to achieve maximum improvement, not only for yourself but also for your team!"

"Now, may we begin?" Wei Lai blinked. "Excuse me, how should I address you?"

The other person was clearly taken aback for a moment, and said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I didn't introduce myself. This is my first time teaching, and I'm not very familiar with these procedures."

You can call me the Puppet Master!

"Puppet master?" Wei Lai repeated.

The puppeteer coach smiled and said, "Yes! I like that title!"

"Where do we begin?" Wei Lai asked expectantly.

The puppeteer coach smiled, walked over, stepped on the ball, and looked at Wei Lai, saying, "No rush, let's start with the simple things and understand our roles!"

"Understand your responsibilities?"

“That’s right! Understanding your role is beneficial for developing your abilities!” the puppet master said loudly. “You’re currently playing as a number 6, but I’m going to teach you how to play as a number 8. You should know the difference between these two positions, right?”

Wei Lai immediately nodded.

The puppeteer master laughed and said, "Very good, but I also need to give a brief introduction. Position 6 is the traditional defensive midfielder position, which is a position responsible for defensive distribution, but its main focus is on defense!"

"The number 10 position, also known as the attacking midfielder, is responsible for creating attacking opportunities, dribbling past opponents, advancing the attack vertically, and making the final pass!"

"The center position falls somewhere in between; its concept is somewhat vague, with no absolute responsibility! Some players handle defense, some are responsible for offense, some act as the metronome, and some primarily control the tempo! But precisely because this position is all-encompassing and has complex functions, it is often referred to as..."

The puppeteer looked at Wei Lai; "Brain!"

Bang bang bang! !

On the field, Wei Lai is practicing rondo with simulated players.

These players were incredibly quick and coordinated in their tackles.

Wei Lai had very little time to observe; he needed to make quick judgments and decisions.

"Don't just think about the present. You need to open your eyes, learn to think about the future, and understand that every technical action has value; it serves the next action or the next situation!"

"Simplify the competition content, open up your thinking, and quickly shift your mindset."

The puppeteer's instructor stood aside, continuously providing guidance.

boom!
Wei Lai plopped down on the ground, but the ball had already flown away.

"That's a pointless pass!"

The puppeteer coach walked over and looked at Wei Lai: "You're passing the ball blindly. The moment you pass the ball, you need to think about how to receive it and what to do next. You need to think all of this in advance. Remember! You are the brain. If you don't think, your team will stagnate!"

"stand up!"

The puppeteer coach shouted.

Wei Lai got up from the ground, turned to look at the puppeteer coach, and said helplessly, "I've been thinking about it, but the space is getting narrower and narrower, and I have no more lines to pass the ball!"

"That's because from the very beginning, you blocked your own thinking; you didn't try to control them!"

The puppeteer coach looked at Wei Lai.

"Huh?" Wei Lai looked completely bewildered; "Control? Control whom?"

"Your teammate!"

Wei Lai looked bewildered: "How can I control them?"

"Hmm," the puppeteer coach thought for a moment, "to be precise, it should be 'guidance'!"

He held up his index finger: "This is the content of the first lesson, a guided passing run!"
