Chapter 108:
The team tyrant had arrived and Puppy could no longer earn his dirty money. Puppy looked sadly at the live chat swooshing by and sighed.
It felt terrible having so much traffic without being able to swindle them of their money.
The team tyrant turned on his computer and started playing. He also started a live broadcast and the popularity of the Puppy’s live broadcast room instantly went down by more than half. Unfortunately, Shi Luo’s was still doing his no-webcam no-mic technical live broadcast. Shi Luo’s fans bitterly kept watch for a long time and ended up without even hearing his voice. They were left with no choice but to go back to Puppy’s live broadcast. They watched Shi Luo doing his live broadcast and used Puppy’s to listen to the sound of the Free training room in the background.
Puppy has long been accustomed to simply being a means to their ends. Unperturbed, he watched the popularity of his live broadcast take a dive and then gradually pick up again. He said leisurely, “Alright, go on. Leave…Don’t come running back here to watch my shanghuang.”
The fans gave Puppy some small gifts to comfort him.
None of them queued up for a match. After the short break, the players needed to get back the feeling in their hands. Winning or losing in the game wasn’t important. The point was to get back the feel of doing high-intensity training. For seven hours, save for going to the bathroom, Shi Luo hadn’t even taken a smoke break. He played round after round of continuous high-intensity practice. It was only at six o’clock in the afternoon, when it was about time to have dinner that he exited the game. He hadn’t even opened his mic. He was also too embarrassed to show himself eating dinner just to fill up his lacking live broadcast time and so he chose to just close the live broadcast.
It just so happened that Zhou Huo wanted to talk to everyone about business. So, instead of letting Puppy and Chen Huo bring up their meals to eat in front of their computers, everyone went to gather downstairs in the dining room.
Zhou Huo took advantage of everyone gathering to eat to sit to one side and explain matters one by one, “Tomorrow night at nine o’clock will be the group drawing for the World Championships. If you want to watch it, Old Qiao will arrange your training schedule so that it doesn’t clash.”
Old Qiao nodded while eating, “I know.”
“Aiya, it’s finally time to draw lots.” Chen Huo let out a whistle. “This is the most exciting. Come on, Sacred Sword…”
Shi Luo raised his eyes. Sacred Sword had its share of Shi Luo’s old resentments from when their team was dismantled. At the beginning of the season, Sacred Sword ran through the medics of the local division, creating new resentment. He too wanted very much to meet with Sacred Sword in the group stage.
“I, on the other hand, am looking forward to meeting the Japanese team, the Thai team, and the Philippine team…” Zhou Huo gave a panicked smile. “What for? What’s wrong with leaving the hard bones to chew on later?”
“That’s not good.” Shi Luo frowned, “I want to play against them in the group stage.”
“It doesn’t matter what you want anyway.” Zhou Huo said, “We’re not the ones making the draw. The organizer of this year’s World Championships is the European Division and it will be the officials of the European Division who will be doing the draw.”
Zhou Huo bowed his head and looked at his notebook, “Now… now every team that has entered the World Championship is performing magic. NSN’s manager has been bathing and burning incense since a few days ago. And every day he washes his hands with flower water…”
