A week passed by quickly. Sure enough, Tyrannical Ambition's Zhang Xinjie and Lin Jingyan worked together to summon the wind and summon the rain in the boss battle. Unfortunately, with these two Gods helping out, the other teams could only be envious. In any case, the situation had already been reported to the higher-ups. They braced themselves and fought for the boss. Even if they couldn't, they still had to do their best! These two months of summer weren't unfamiliar to the Club guilds. It was just that this time, Tyrannical Ambition was very strong.
As for the other Club guilds, it wasn't like they didn't have any pro players helping them out. On Blue Brook Pavilion's side, Lu Hanwen was as diligent and fierce as ever. This youth seemed to have boundless energy. No matter how many losses they suffered, they couldn't take away his fighting spirit. After a day of repeated losses, he was still full of energy the next day. All sorts of shouts rose the morale of the other guild members.
On Herb Garden's side, their pro player Liu Xiaobie participated in the battle. He was also a famous hand speed expert in the pro scene. However, because his control over his hand speed wasn't perfect, he wasn't able to fully utilize his hand speed advantage. This expert's role in the team battle was the same as Lu Hanwen's. He was more of an individual player. Herb Garden had him, but they weren't able to gain any advantage over a Master Tactician like Zhang Xinjie.
Excellent Dynasty was also a traditional powerhouse. Even though their team had been eliminated, their guild hadn't been forgotten. However, their competitiveness was mediocre and they didn't have any outstanding performances.
Apart from this, the new champions, Samsara, didn't have a good week either. They continued to be the most disappointing of the new champions. In addition, it was rumored that Samsara's first and second elite groups often clashed. It seemed like they weren't on good terms. Quite a few guilds smelled the scent and their poaching teams were ready to make a move.
Another team that stood out was Team Wind Howl. The newly added pro player Tang Hao was also exceptionally diligent. From time to time, he would join the team and help out. Last season's Best Rookie, Zhao Yuzhe, also frequently showed up in the game.
However, the team that benefited the most was still Tyrannical Ambition. The other pro players that helped out were like bosses. They didn't always show up. Only Tyranny's two men were there every day, as if they were the staff of an online gaming studio.
Although Tyrannical Ambition was dazzling, the most eye-catching was still Ye Xiu's Four Guild Alliance. In reality, these guilds weren't opponents in the eyes of the other guilds, but now, they had become the biggest winners apart from Tyrannical Ambition.
The day belonged to Tyrannical Ambition. The night belonged to the Four Great Alliance. In any case, it wouldn't belong to any other guild.
As for Ye Xiu, apart from stealing more bosses than Tyrannical Ambition, he had also killed Deception several times this week. Apart from Deception's main account, there was also an alternate account called Not White. Apart from that, there was also another alternate account called White Demon. A crafty rabbit has three burrows. Deception had three accounts open and would occasionally show up in the wild boss battle. As a result, whenever Ye Xiu bumped into him, he would definitely die. Among them, some died in confusion, while others died in confusion. However, after dying in confusion, it was easy to guess what had happened.
Deception was having a hard time! This week's harvest had decreased by quite a bit. What was even more vexing was that Ye Xiu's influence had exceeded his expectations. He couldn't avoid him just by watching a few players. Deception had no idea who was on Ye Xiu's side. In any case, no matter which account appeared in the wild boss battle, it would always be chased and killed.
Deception really wanted to find Ye Xiu and ask him what he wanted. However, he hadn't seen Ye Xiu's character after dying four times, so he didn't ask him the question.
This week's in-game events were more or less like this. Outside of the game, there were many transfers, but the only two important players were Lin Jingyan and Tang Hao. Xiao Shiqin was also an important player, but because he had joined Excellent Era, they wouldn't be competing in the Alliance next season. After being called a retard for a while, not many people cared about his situation.
Most of the summer news in the Glory circle revolved around transfers. All sorts of rumors and guesses filled the air. This week, the most popular transfer topic was guessing which player Team Hundred Blossoms would sign as their core character, Dazzling Hundred Blossoms.
However, after Zhang Jiale retired, there was only one other Spitfire player in the Alliance who had reached his level. No matter how you looked at it, there wasn't anyone who could become the ace core of a team. As a result, the number of possible candidates increased. Team Blue Rain's Zheng Xuan, Team Royal Style's Shen Wanhe, and Team Void's Ge Zhaolan were all relatively good candidates. However, compared to Zhang Jiale's God level, these players were still lacking. Become the ace core of a team? Would these players suddenly have a chance of exploding? Quite a few people even thought that since there wasn't a single Spitfire player in the Alliance, Hundred Blossoms might as well give Zou Yuan another year. At the very least, Zou Yuan was familiar with Hundred Blossoms' environment and techniques. Last season, because of Tang Hao's strength, Hundred Blossoms' strategy was a bit out of whack, and Zou Yuan's position as the core wasn't properly established. This season, if they solidified Zou Yuan's position as the core and polished him for a season, he might not necessarily be worse than the players they bought from the outside.
There were all sorts of opinions, but Hundred Blossoms didn't make any moves. When it came to transfers, it was important to make the first move. In the end, they might not even be able to spend the ten million check. This was because a player could only transfer once during the transfer period. If a player that Hundred Blossoms wanted was taken by another team, then they wouldn't be able to sign that player this summer. Hundred Blossoms didn't make any moves, nor did they say that they wanted to solidify Zou Yuan's position. For a moment, their fans were extremely worried. Quite a few people thought of their retired captain, Zhang Jiale.
Zhang Jiale's retirement was very sudden. With his skill level, no one felt that it was time for him to retire. Zhang Jiale was an old player who had joined the Alliance in the second season. This year, he was 25 years old. In the esports scene, he was considered old, but he wasn't at an age where he couldn't persevere. Especially with the development of the Alliance, all sorts of strategies and playstyles were constantly changing, and the survival of older players greatly increased. Lin Jingyan had joined Tyranny, and Han Wenqing had shouted that they would fight for the championship. These two old players were two years older than Zhang Jiale. If they had such ambitions, why couldn't the younger Zhang Jiale make a comeback?
This was still just the expectations of the fans and the guesses of the players. Club Hundred Blossoms didn't say anything about this.
In the second week of the summer transfer, there weren't any big names. Instead, Team Blue Rain announced a youngster who had been promoted from the training camp and would be registered as an official player for Blue Rain next season: Lu Hanwen.
This sort of unknown rookie normally wouldn't attract too much attention, but Team Blue Rain held a press conference for this youngster and called him the most important "transfer" for Team Blue Rain in the new season. Such high profile confidence attracted countless curious people.
When the media investigated, they were shocked.
Lu Hanwen was only 14 years old. If he registered as an official player, he would set a new record for being the youngest player in the Alliance.
In the early days of professional Glory, age was very strict. Players had to be at least 18 years old, have full civil capacity, and be able to independently engage in civil activities. Of course, this was also related to the social environment of the time. Too many people viewed video games as not interfering with their work, and many people viewed those who entered the game as unreliable. In this kind of environment, grabbing an underage child as a player and delaying their education made it easier for them to be pushed to the heart of the struggle.
In the past few years, the Glory Professional Alliance had led the esports industry to flourish, and this industry was finally accepted by some people. It was no longer viewed as a scourge like it was in the early days. Many people viewed it as a traditional sport like football or basketball. In addition, the Alliance continuously improved some special rules, so age was no longer a restriction on becoming a pro player. However, for someone like Lu Hanwen to become a pro player at 14 years old was truly shocking.
At the press conference, everyone finally saw the youngest player in Glory's history. He still had a childish face and voice, but when facing the media, he wasn't nervous at all. He said whatever he wanted to say and answered whatever they asked. This kind of attitude was enough to leave the current number one player in the Alliance, Zhou Zekai, in the dust. The seasoned media could see that Lu Hanwen hadn't received any special training. It was just his personality. The media had a good impression of such a proactive person, but as a pro player, he still had to speak with his strength.
Unfortunately, there was still a long way to go before the start of the next season. Even if the season started, it was hard to say when such a young player would be able to compete. It wasn't as if there weren't any substitutes who sat on the bench for an entire season, and many of them were rookies who had just been promoted. Last season, didn't Team Micrograss have a player called something that didn't appear in a match for an entire season?
Poor Qiao Yifan. Right now, many people were comparing him to Blue Rain's rookie, but not many people remembered his name. They only vaguely remembered that something. In the eyes of too many people, Micrograss's only rookie was Gao Yingjie. But what about Team Blue Rain's rookie? Before, he was unknown. Although Blue Rain had announced his addition in a high-profile manner, they hadn't released any specific information about him to the public. The media didn't even know what this kid's class was.
Could this be a new Glory genius?
For the new season, people were looking forward to it.
