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

Madrid, Spain.

Atlético Madrid training ground.

Inside the stadium, Diego Simeone and assistant coach Calatayud looked shocked.

The two looked at each other, and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

"Did you give him special training?"

"No! I thought you arranged it."

"That kid is really terrifying."

Prior to this, Simone knew that Lu Xiao was very talented.

For most players, it would be considered genius if they could evolve within two or three years.

Lu Xiao even achieved a qualitative leap within a week!

"Genius" is not enough to describe this Eastern boy; he's simply a monster!

A week ago,

Lu Xiao's long passes and through balls are inconsistent, and he can only be considered to be at the level of an average first-team player.

His off-the-ball movement was also quite ordinary, without any particularly impressive leads.

At the same time, they have a natural disadvantage in aerial header battles.

Despite his height of 185 cm, his relatively slender build makes it difficult for him to compete against muscular, tough guards.

Therefore, most of Lu Xiao's goals were scored through skillful dribbling or long-range shots.

There were almost no headers.

In just one match,

Lu Xiao was absolutely unstoppable on the training field today!

Long passes, free kicks, and aerial duels in the penalty area.

Even their defensive positioning has improved a lot!

He's practically a combination of Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, and Ronaldinho!

Simone clicked his tongue in amazement:

"What kind of monster is about to be born in world football? I can't even imagine."

Meanwhile, inside the training field.

Atletico Madrid teammates were also shocked.

We all know Lu Xiao's skill level because we usually train and compete with him.

This guy is like a completely different person today.

Lu Xiao delivered a precise long pass from the right side of midfield, finding Griezmann in the midfield.

It wasn't the usual pressure-free ball movement.

Instead, it was a long pass at the limit, with both sides double-teamed by defenders.

Griezmann didn't need to position himself in the gaps between players; he could easily receive the ball and even control it effortlessly.

This change caught Griezmann off guard, causing him to miscontrol the ball.

Griezmann turned to look at Lu Xiao.

"Lu!! No way!"

"My God!!"

"Please tell me, is your foot a blunder?"

"Yes, I guessed," Lu Xiao said casually.

A few minutes later, another guided missile moved from the right to the left.

Torres unleashed a powerful volley that found the back of the net.

Having weathered many storms, the now simple-minded Fernando Torres also sensed something was amiss.

Observers might not see it clearly and think that this long pass was quite ordinary.

Only the person who received the ball truly understood just how technically sophisticated Lu Xiao's long pass was!

"Impossible! Lu, when did you...?"

"Right, right!! Fernando, you think so too, don't you!"

Griezmann has found people who understand him; both Atletico Madrid strikers have defied expectations.

Can a person really change rapidly in a short period of time?

If Lu Xiao's long passes weren't 100% effective and his success rate didn't fluctuate,

Both of them wished they could retire on the spot.

That's so discouraging!

Playing alongside such a genius, Griezmann and Torres felt they were insulting the word "genius."

"That's normal."

Kirk remained calm, showing no surprise.

"That's the kind of player Lu is. You all know how late he practices extra hours."

"I see."

Only then were the Atlético Madrid players able to accept it.

Compared to Lu Xiao, who is a monster,

His improvement through self-torture-like extra training makes it more understandable.

"this……"

Lu Xiao looked at his teammates who were talking amongst themselves, and hesitated to speak.

He didn't know how to explain it.

Forget it, let them guess.

Lu Xiao took a sip of the electrolyte drink, while mentally reviewing the experience he had just had.

The successful fusion of four templates – Beckham, Bukayo Saka, Cannavaro, and Xiao Junguang – has indeed brought about a certain improvement!

The most obvious example is, of course, the "heartthrob," David Beckham.

Lu Xiao's long pass success rate has improved significantly.

In a non-confrontational state, it can basically simulate Beckham's muscle memory 100%.

When there is competition, the performance will fluctuate to some extent depending on the pressure of the competition, which can roughly simulate about 6% of Beckham's strength.

It depends on how well they performed at the time.

If he performs well, he can unleash his signature "crescent moon" move on the field.

The same applies to free kicks.

It is related to factors such as physical exertion and mental state during the competition, and the condition ranges from 6% to 9%.

During Lu Xiao's review,

On the other hand, regarding the coaching staff, Diego Simeone has already begun discussing making Lu Xiao Atlético Madrid's first-choice free-kick taker.

Previously, Griezmann, Kirk, and others took the free throws, but now Lu Xiao might be more confident taking them.

As for [Xiao Junguang] and [Bukayo Saka],

The muscle memory resulting from the fusion of these two templates is not very noticeable.

Lu Xiao is known for his dribbling skills, and Bukayo Saka should also be a player who excels at dribbling on the wing, while also possessing the skill of cutting inside with his left foot to shoot.

No wonder Lu Xiao noticed that his left-footed shooting accuracy had improved significantly.

Having previously relied solely on his right foot, he has gradually made his weaker foot his primary scoring method.

The improvement brought by Xiao Junguang is mainly in his more accurate and powerful tackles.

During today's intra-squad training session, Lu Xiao made several tackles that caused Griezmann considerable pain.

Xiao Junguang's exclusive skill, [Reactionary Swift Cannon], has not yet been experienced.

[Cannavaro] has improved his positional awareness in defense and his ability to win headers in the penalty area.

Of course, given Lu Xiao's muscle strength and positional characteristics, he couldn't possibly be stronger defensively than a professional center-back.

At most, they can bring more tactical value during the defensive transition.

Overall, this template integration was undoubtedly a success!

Lu Xiao can't wait for the next fusion to begin, to fuse even more high-level templates!

……

"After the last round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid is currently in first place, two points behind second-placed Barcelona."

April 26, 2016, match day.

In the 36th round of La Liga, just two days after the pivotal match of the previous round, Atletico Madrid will face Rayo Vallecano again.

With the Champions League semi-finals just two days away, the competition is about to begin.

Atletico Madrid and Barcelona will face off in the first leg of their semi-final, a crucial match.

Atletico Madrid rotated their squad for today's match against Rayo Vallecano.

Griezmann, Koke, Saul, Torres, Gabi, Godin and other key players are all rested!

Only Lu Xiao remained on the bench.

Simeone initially treated Lu Xiao like a treasure, protecting him and not daring to let him have too many matches, for fear that the 18-year-old's small body would get injured.

Later, the coaching staff realized just how freakish Lu Xiao was.

Despite playing three games a week, this guy can recover quickly, with all his indicators basically returning to full value.

As expected of a young person, their recovery ability is really strong!

So Simone didn't hold back and let Lu Xiao guarantee the minimum return.

If Rayo Vallecano pulls off an upset, Lu Xiao will have a chance to come off the bench and be the savior.

"Lu, be ready for the second half, and be ready to come on at any time."

Thirty minutes into the match, Rayo Vallecano's solid defensive formation made it difficult for Atletico Madrid's rotated squad to break through, and they were unable to score despite prolonged attacks.

Simeone realized something was wrong and decided to use Lu Xiao, the nuclear weapon, to end the game.

"no problem."

Lu Xiao was indeed very tired; he had just played a thrilling match against Barcelona three days prior.

Two days later, they will face Barcelona in a do-or-die match.

Even the most resilient players can't take it.

However, Lu Xiao has a cheat code!

On the bench, he secretly drank a can of [regular Red Bull].

With 1600 silver coins, Lu Xiao completed a ten-pull.

Unfortunately, this time I only got either a [substitute paper doll] or a [regular Red Bull], nothing special.

After taking a sip of Red Bull, Lu Xiao felt much better.

That's the power of cheat codes!

Even if one secretly uses a mysterious healing potion,

There was no indication of anything amiss, and urine tests also failed to detect anything.

I have a system now, so why do I care if it's scientific or not!

Sure enough, in the 75th minute of the match, Simeone couldn't hold back any longer.

Atletico Madrid 0-0 Rayo Vallecano!

Without Lu Xiao playing, we'll probably only get 1 point. Barcelona will catch up again!

"Oh? Atletico Madrid requests a substitution! Angel Correa off, savior Lu Xiao on the bench!"

The Spanish commentator made a joke.

Anyone with a brain knows Lu Xiao will definitely play!

Angel Correa was not discouraged and smiled as he gave Lu Xiao a high five.

"Sorry, Lu. I didn't score, it's up to you now."

Don't take it to heart, you're very strong.

Lu Xiao patted his teammate on the back and ran quickly towards the court.

The appearance of their own number 10 ace player caused the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium to erupt in the most intense cheers!

The fans in the front row almost shouted themselves hoarse, and they'll probably be hoarse for two or three days.

The Rayo Vallecano players looked terrified.

The scariest episode ever!

You promised to use substitutes for rotation, but you're throwing nuclear weapons in a regular league, aren't you?

Lu Xiao demonstrated the terrifying deterrent power of nuclear weapons in just 3 minutes on the field!

A precise long pass, over 40 meters long, was launched from the right side of the attacking third, heading straight for the penalty area!

For a moment, the surrounding fans seemed to see Beckham!

Even Luciano, the substitute striker in the penalty area, didn't react in time, staring blankly as the ball flew past his eyes!

"Sorry, it's my fault!"

Luciano looked ashamed.

If he had trusted Lu Xiao more and started his run earlier, he might have scored a beautiful volley.

Lu Xiao's single move sent chills down Rayo Vallecano's spine!

Clearly, Rayo Vallecano's nightmare is not over!

In the 86th minute of the match, Lu Xiao moved from the center to the right wing!

He dribbled past the opposing left-back with a stepover and then suddenly cut inside with a sharp cut.

The others thought Lu Xiao was going to continue dribbling past his opponent.

Lu Xiao suddenly pulled the lever with his left foot in the opposite direction.

A clean and powerful shot!

The football arced beautifully and curled into the net!

"Gooooooal!!! LUUUU SHAAAAW——"

"What a beautiful world-class goal!!! Wow!"

"Unsurprisingly, Atletico Madrid has taken the lead!"

"Lu Xiao has scored 49 goals, just one away from the 50-goal record!"

At this very moment, the person under the most pressure is actually Messi, who is watching the game on TV.

Lu Xiao scored another goal, bringing him ever closer to his own goal-scoring record.

Meanwhile, Barcelona is about to depart for the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium!

Messi is facing his nemesis again!

"..."

Although Messi has never had a job.

But he suddenly felt the pressure of being a corporate slave.

On the night the long holiday ended, the thought of going to work the next day made me want to die.

"Let's finish this quickly."

Messi shook his head, turned off the TV, and went back to his bedroom.

He wasn't sure if he could break his embarrassing 0-win record this time.

We have no choice but to give it our all!
