GOD LEVEL SUMMONER (Yaoi) Author: Die Zhiling, 蝶之灵 COMPLETED

Chapter 168-170

Chapter 168 – Confidence

Canglan beat Red Fox in the first wave and Li Xiaojiang became super god. The economic gap between the two teams was more than 10,000 coins. In such a situation, it was difficult for any team in the league to make a comeback.

Li Cangyu’s style of play was very stable and he kept this advantage until the end of the game. This game was successfully won by Canglan and the final score was determined to be 1:2.

The match ended and the Red Fox players took the initiative to come and greet them. Liu Xiang behaved politely and Li Cangyu graciously shook hands with her, saying, “Captain Liu is very strong.”

Liu Xiang smiled. “Cat God is also very strong. The third game was well arranged.”

Li Cangyu smiled. “Thanks for the praise!”

“My master is present and wants to ask you to have a meal. Can Cat God do us this favour?”

Her master was a friend Li Cangyu knew in his early years, Yu Bing. Yu Bing took the initiative to invite him so Li Cangyu promised to come. “Okay, I will go out and eat with her later.” Then he turned and said to Bai Xuan in a low voice, “I won’t go to dinner today. Let everyone move freely. It is their first time in Suzhou and they can explore the city.”

Bai Xuan nodded. “I understand. I’ll arrange it.”

***

For this post-match interview, Li Cangyu only brought Li Xiaojiang with him.

The reporters asked as soon as they saw him, “Cat God, why didn’t you change the lineup when you lost the first two games?”

Li Cangyu didn’t hesitate. “It is because I had confidence in Li Xiaojiang.”

Li Xiaojiang was very moved from where he sat next to Li Cangyu. Li Cangyu smiled at him in an encouraging manner and continued, “The four newcomers currently aren’t mature enough. In particular, Li Xiaojiang lacks confidence in himself. I let him play in the third game today to tell him that no matter the circumstances, Canglan won’t give up on him.”

Li Xiaojiang’s eyes became wet at the captain’s firm remarks.

It was true that he would’ve felt more uncomfortable if the captain replaced him after losing the first two games.

He didn’t tell anyone but he actually felt very inferior. In the Canglan team, he was the slowest one with the worst foundation. He was also the worst when it came to family.

He was from a small country village and his parents were honest and loyal farmers. He couldn’t compare to Xiao Han who lived in a foreign country, Zhuo Hang whose parents were rich and Gu Siming, who had lived in Changsha for many years. Once the four newcomers got together, they would naturally talk about the game as well as other topics.

For example, when talking about hobbies, Zhuo Hang was very fond of snooker and loved watching the Snooker World Championship on his iPad. Gu Siming loved to watch anime like Naruto and One Piece. Xiao Han liked American dramas and could watch them without subtitles. However, Li Xiaojiang didn’t understand any of their words.

He didn’t know what snooker was, he had never seen Naruto and he hadn’t heard of the Vampire Diaries.

He didn’t seem to live in the same world as his peers.

Li Xiaojiang was usually silent when Cat God was absent. It was because he couldn’t discuss things with the three teenagers.

He always felt that he was an insignificant presence in the team. He was a dispensable invisible person. When necessary, Cat God would send him to cooperate with Zhuo Hang in the arena. At other times, he just sat on the bench and watched everyone’s performance.
