Soccer: Maxed-out ball control, the skill is too overpowered.

They defeated Paderborn in the 24th round of the Bundesliga, with three days remaining until the second leg of the Champions League knockout stage.

That night, under the cover of darkness.

Lu Xiao went to the hotel balcony, holding a glass of non-alcoholic champagne, enjoying the evening breeze, and listening to the swimsuit-clad beauties playing in the infinity pool below.

He had no interest in admiring the long legs of the swimsuit-clad beauties.

All attention was focused on the system panel in front of them.

Compared to the previous content, there are some new items.

For example, [Wishing Gold Coins], [Wishing Silver Coins], [Item Cards]...

It's obvious that all of this is related to the new module, GOAT Wishing Well.

Leaving aside the [Template Equipment] interface for now,

As before, the equipment template will be changed before each match.

The only difference is that in previous matches, only one template could be equipped, and there was only one equipment slot.

There are now two equipment slots!

The focus was naturally on the latest section, so Lu Xiao quickly clicked on it to see what was going on with the Wishing Well.

It's like a poorly made mobile game interface that was outsourced.

There are only two pools in the area: gold and silver.

You can make one wish or ten wishes under each pool.

Players who are familiar with the game 10 years from now will naturally find this setup familiar.

But it was only 2015, and the concept of a second game was completely foreign to Lu Xiao.

I stared at the system for a long time before I finally understood what was going on.

[Would you like to spend 1 gold coin to make a wish?]

[Limited-Time System Upgrade Benefits: Newcomer Gift Pack for Daily Sign-ins! Reward: 10 Gold Coins!]

Just as Lu Xiao was about to make a wish, a pop-up window suddenly caught his eye!

It's definitely more satisfying to do 10 consecutive pulls than to do them individually!

Since it's a freebie, just go for it!

[Would you like to spend 10 gold coins to make a wish?]

Sure!

I'm rich, I can spend money however I want!

The instant I clicked the 10-pull button,

Four colors of light—gold, purple, blue, and white—emerged from the wishing well, intertwining and shimmering continuously.

Immediately afterwards, the wishing well began to shake, and light shot into the sky!

One golden ray was the most eye-catching, while the rest were blue and white.

???

What on earth is all this?!

For a moment, Lu Xiao was overwhelmed by what he saw and couldn't keep up.

Retired legendary players, current players, future stars you've never seen before, and characters from anime and games are all included!

Is the system template database too cluttered?

What a chaotic mess!

Although there are many templates, few are actually useful on the field.

For example, the character Aoi Ashito-C from "Blue Reed".

The next day.

Bayer Leverkusen training ground

The whole team is in intense preparation for the second leg of the Champions League knockout stage.

After training, Lu Xiao stayed on the court for extra practice.

His main goal was to verify the capabilities of each template.

Unsurprisingly, the C-level template was simply... a C-level template!

【Aoi Ashito-C】has strong physical fitness and willpower. After equipping the gear, he seems to have an inexhaustible running ability. His reaction time and game reading ability in the frontcourt are also quite good.

Their overall strength is at best among the top youth training players, not even qualified for the first team.

Lu Xiao's current true strength is at least at B level.

If the template is not even as good as your own strength, then what's the point of equipping yourself with a template?

Including current stars and legendary players such as "The Spinning King" Carmelo Anthony,

Lu Xiao also tried them all one by one.

It doesn't significantly improve one's combat strength.

Especially the [Cannavaro] template,

What the hell would I need a center-back template for?

All I can say is that out of the 10 cards I drew, only the gold S-rank template [Hyuga Kojiro] was able to boost my immediate combat power.

Furthermore, the properties of the new template are obtained based on a 100% fusion value.

Only this template is worth cultivating.

The other templates are better than nothing, used in specific situations to achieve specific effects and serve as a surprise weapon.

After equipping the [Hyuga Kojiro-S] template,

Lu Xiao clearly felt that his shooting ability had improved significantly!

Furthermore, his dribbling, physical fitness, and off-the-ball movement have all improved.

At least his shooting attribute surpasses that of [Heelukai] and [Nagi Seishiro].

When there's insufficient marking inside the penalty area, the accuracy of his shots is practically 100%!

In the training match that day, Lu Xiao did not unlock any skills.

It completely broke the mentality of their own goalkeeper, Bernd Leno.

beep—

"Goooooal!! Lu!"

"Team 1's goal stands!"

beep—

"...Gooooal!! It's Lu!!"

"Goal stands!"

beep—

"Um... Lue has already scored a hat trick, how did you guys defend against that?"

The defense conceded 3 goals in 7 minutes?

Even when facing Lu Xiao, this shouldn't be the case!

Faced with a reprimand from head coach Sasha,

Rüdiger in the defense was wronged.

"Coach, Lu is too strong! I can't stop his shots at all!"

"Yes, the kick was too fast, I didn't see it clearly!"

Goalkeeper Leno is also very troubled.

He used to be able to save at least a few of Lu Xiao's shots.

Today, Lu Xiao beat me to a pulp.

Is it possible to make such significant progress in just one day?

The only explanation is that his goalkeeping skills have deteriorated?

Leno was starting to doubt himself.

"Leno! You're still very strong. Today I was just lucky, nothing more."

Lu Xiao quickly comforted the goalkeeper.

Let's not dampen our teammates' confidence and affect tomorrow's game.

Fortunately, Lionel was easy to coax and quickly regained his confidence.

After training, the team returned to the hotel to rest and prepare for tomorrow's crucial Champions League match.

That night, Lu Xiao went to the hotel balcony again.

I'm still savoring the feeling of equipping the [Hyuga Kojiro] template today.

"If we could have this kind of shooting efficiency in a match..."

Lu Xiao reached out his hand into the night sky, trying to grasp the bright moon.

"We'll definitely win tomorrow!"
