From the past until now, for two whole generations, No.1's existence had always represented the pinnacle of the world's professional esports scene.
Back then, no one could reach him.
Even now, no one had caught up.
Even Han Shihao, who was publicly acknowledged as the number one player in the new generation of esports, had almost reached the pinnacle of the realm of the Four Emperors, and had even caught up to and even surpassed many legends from the previous generation, was still at least half a step away from the height of No.1.
However, this half step was a true chasm.
It was not even comparable to the amount of effort that Morning Star, who was half a step away from the realm of the Yonkō, had to spend to cross the threshold.
Not to mention Han Shihao, perhaps even Europe's Crow, Korea's Lee Do-jae, and Bullet, who was standing in front of No.1 right now, had also spent a lot of time and effort on this half-step, but they had yet to achieve any results.
Therefore, the words that came out of Bullet's mouth at this moment were also a bit shocking even though they came out of his mouth.
Number One narrowed his eyes slightly and subconsciously touched his nose.
"You're very confident …"
Bullet's expression returned to normal, but his tone carried a bit of undisguised pride and conceit.
"Perhaps in the past, even I wouldn't dare to say that I could make a breakthrough at this last half-step.
"But now —
"If I have this girl, then I have at least a 50% chance of success."
"50% …" Number One nodded. "That's very high, amazing."
This was a heartfelt exclamation because he knew that his old friend in front of him was never a person who liked to boast. If he could say this, it meant that he had enough certainty and confidence.
"The current Tang-Tang can last for seven minutes."
"Perhaps if she is allowed to continue to adapt to the game, she can create a higher record."
As he said this, Bullet looked at Number One.
"Back then, what were the results of that Maple and that kid called 'MoYan'? Seven and a half minutes, eight minutes? "
"As long as this girl can get enough professional training, she even has a chance to challenge the difficulty level after eight minutes."
Number One nodded.
"Reasonable."
This was indisputable.
Not only Bullet, but the three legendary players who had been watching the battle could also easily come to the conclusion that the girl was a perfect piece of unpolished jade. She was already able to react so quickly, so with a little training … her ability in this aspect would increase by at least 20%.
If it was Bullet's doing, the increase in power would be even greater.
“30%。”
Bullet gave his answer proudly. He paused for a moment and looked at the girl's back with undisguised satisfaction and expectation.
"Maybe even up to 35%."
No. 1 nodded slowly. "That's a level that no one in the industry has ever reached."
Even for him, it was hard for him to imagine what it would be like when the girl, who was like an unpolished jade, was carefully sculpted by Bullet. Bullet's greatest strength was further enhanced to the extreme, and then her effective hand speed EAPM was refined from the extreme conventional APM to the most perfect and perfect proportion … What kind of picture would that be?
Bullet looked up at No. 1 with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you feel a sense of crisis?"
Bullet had been dominating the entire professional esports circle for almost two generations. One day, he finally found out that his position was about to be attacked and challenged by the latecomers. It was indeed a very subtle feeling.
"A sense of crisis?"
No. 1 laughed and shrugged.
"This has nothing to do with me. I've already retired a long time ago. I don't have the strength to accompany these little guys to cause trouble. It's enough to be a witness. As for the new generation … it's always up to the new generation to work hard."
"Even if they really want to compete, I don't have to do it —"
Bullet understood the meaning behind No. 1's words. He raised his eyebrows and sneered.
"Are you talking about your successor, Maple?"
"Back then, he only lost in the finals, but he was able to disband his team. What kind of person can he be? He's not even as good as that Korean guy with the surname Han. With this kind of willpower, how can he be compared to the girl I like?"
Number One didn't think much of it and didn't refute. Instead, she admitted, "You're right, but people change. What's more, the girl you care so much about, her heart is completely tied to my disciple."
Bullet caught the ridicule in No. 1's words and suddenly realized something. His expression finally changed.
"What do you mean?"
Number One's face was full of schadenfreude. "It means that you might be working for someone else's benefit. What, as a master, do you want to manage your disciple's feelings as well?"
…
"Seniors, the car is here. Sister Dance asked me to hurry up —"
The wind chime at the door let out a melodious sound. Tang Bingyao pushed the door open and found No.1 and Bullet at the counter. While reporting, she sized up the two seniors in front of her, who seemed to have a slightly strange atmosphere, with some doubts.
"Did … did something happen?"
No. 1 replied with a warm smile, "It's nothing. I was just chatting with your master. The car is here, right? Let's go out."
Bullet nodded at his new female disciple with a gentle expression on his face.
Tang Bingyao looked at her senior and new master curiously. She nodded obediently, turned around, and left.
Bullet's eyes were filled with satisfaction and gratification as he looked at his new disciple's back. But then, he heard his old friend clicking his tongue as if he was shaking his head, "Tsk.
"Sigh —"
"What a good girl … She's really a good match for our boy —"
Bullet's face instantly darkened again. He gritted his teeth.
"Do you really think I won't get mad?"
No. 1 shrugged. "You're already on the pirate ship. Why should I worry about you?"
His tone was relaxed and mocking.
Indeed, although it looked like he was the one who sent Tang Bingyao to his old friend, in fact, he was the one who successfully dragged his old friend onto his pirate ship.
No matter how you look at it, this was a big deal.
Bullet was silent for a moment, and then he sneered, "Don't think too highly of some things. It's true that this girl will be my successor in the future, and I will naturally do my best to teach her everything. But don't think that by relying on this relationship, you can tie me to you."
"Speaking of which, I might as well tell you one more piece of news."
"In the past two days … You and 005 weren't the only ones who looked for me."
