Lu Li remembered that a long time ago, a teacher came to his door and said that his sister, Lu Xin, had cheated and copied someone else's exam paper.
After understanding the situation, he only asked one question: Why did Lu Xin score so much higher than that person? What right did that person have to ask Lu Xin to copy his exam paper? At that time, although the teacher was not convinced, he could only accept the fact that Lu Xin did not plagiarize.
Lu Li did not go to school, but he could be considered an expert in the field of games. It was just like how he would never imitate a third-rate Thief …
Did a genius need to plagiarize?
"Yes, I did." However, Water Fairy's answer made Lu Li unable to believe his eyes.
The audience was also in an uproar. Water Fairy was famous for her beauty at first. Then, she was very rich, so there were many different opinions. Later on, when her education was dug up, the rumors about her being a mistress were naturally dispelled.
A genius like her, who had obtained her degree at the age of ten, had actually cheated before!
"I'm sure I didn't hear wrongly. Water Fairy, someone like you actually cheated before? That's impossible, right?" Dark Wind asked the question that everyone was wondering.
"Yes, I did," Water Fairy answered very calmly, probably because a long time had passed.
"I heard that your grades were very good at that time. The people around you shouldn't be able to compare to you. Why did you cheat? Also, you couldn't have copied what you wanted, right? If you don't know how to do it, how could others?" Lu Li could not help but ask.
"Ahem, I just wanted to know what it was like to cheat. I didn't cheat because I wanted to copy anything," Water Fairy said, a little embarrassed.
"It seems that even a genius can be rebellious," Dark Wind said with a sigh. "But as a failure with more than ten years of cheating history, I can only say that your brain circuits are really strange. Back then, I was racking my brains to think of ways to cheat, but you guys tried it out of curiosity. So, did you get caught at that time?"
"Of course not," Water Fairy replied confidently.
Lu Li was a little confused. He didn't know if the teacher who caught his sister cheating had really seen Lu Xin cheating. Now that he thought about it, his rebuttal to the teacher didn't seem so absolute.
Wasn't there one right in front of him? Cheating out of curiosity.
Of course, these were all trivial matters.
At most, it would allow Lu Li to better understand the other side of Water Fairy and feel that she was a real person, no different from most girls.
And this girl was getting closer to him.
After this commentary, Lu Li returned to Ruling Sword's headquarters.
Ruling Sword's virtual conference room was designed in a retro style. Other than the virtual screen that took up one wall, there was basically no high-tech feel to it. However, the place was definitely spacious. This conference room was very high level, and only people related to the club could enter. There were other conference rooms for elite group meetings.
The few players who were participating in today's competition were all sitting in this conference room. Before Lu Li arrived, they were laughing and talking loudly. They had a very youthful demeanor.
Fei Houzi was still the most talkative person. At this moment, he was holding Short Road's shoulder and bragging, "This kind of small competition is nothing. You guys haven't met a proper club yet, so don't be too complacent …"
Short Road was actually about the same age as him, but Fei Houzi had debuted earlier and had a big reputation.
Short Road was the kind of person who didn't talk much, but it wasn't easy to fool him. After a long period of suffering from illness and experimentation, his temperament was different from ordinary people. However, he could also understand Fei Houzi's undisguised brotherly love, so he had the best relationship with Fei Houzi in the club. The two of them were known as the Ice and Fire Couple.
"Big Brother, what's the level of this team today?" Small Sea Cow asked curiously.
"These people are nothing. Let's not talk about anything else. Mu Qiu was able to take on three of them in the individual rounds, and Mu Qiu and I are enough to take them down in the team rounds," Fat Monkey said disdainfully. "If it was Boss Lu Li, he would be able to take care of this team by himself."
"Then how big is the gap between us and a real professional competitor?" Small Sea Cow asked.
"Uh, it's pretty big." Fei Houzi didn't want to discourage the young professional competitor, but he couldn't lie and say that the gap wasn't big.
"When you can defeat Fei Houzi, it means that you are qualified to be a professional competitor," Lu Li answered as he walked into the meeting room.
When they saw Lu Li come in, everyone immediately sat up straight. Even Fei Houzi didn't sit on the table like before.
Lu Li wasn't a very serious person, but he was the boss of the club after all. There was an invisible sense of authority around him that made people nervous, especially the newcomers who had just joined the club. They didn't even dare to say a word when they saw him.
"Boss, that's too hard on me. How can it be easy to beat me?" Although Fei Houzi didn't disrespect Lu Li, he usually didn't care about what he said.
"Short circuit can beat you," Lu Li said.
"That's because I was careless, and it's also because of his luck. He can beat me three times out of ten," Fei Houzi said anxiously.
"It doesn't matter if you're careless or if he's lucky. As long as they can beat you in a direct confrontation, they'll have the qualifications to become professional players," Lu Li said to the two young generals. "You two work hard to improve yourselves. As long as you have a one-third chance of winning against the club's professional players, you'll be able to earn the salary of a professional player."
"Really?" Small Sea Cow's eyes suddenly lit up.
For those who had just stepped into the professional circle, money might not be the standard of success, but it was definitely the most authoritative recognition.
A fourteen-year-old professional competitor!
What were his peers doing? This feeling of superiority was enough to drive him crazy.
"Do you think it's easy to beat Fei Houzi? Then give it a try. "Lu Li couldn't bear to see his players being so impetuous. He felt that temperament was more important than skill. Although Fei Houzi was very active in private, he was not careless on the battlefield. He immediately sent Fei Houzi to fight with Small Sea Cow.
The result was naturally tragic. Small Sea Cow couldn't even take out half of Fei Houzi's health. His confidence was severely damaged.
"Train honestly. The process of training may be boring, but it will allow you to see others clearly and see yourself clearly," Lu Li pointed at Short circuit and said to the two young players, "His body isn't good, and he's still recovering. However, he spends more time on the training ground than any of you, at least twice as much. I don't approve of this kind of training method. I just want to tell you that there's no such thing as luck. The eSports circle is not a paradise for geniuses."
The two young players who thought they were going to reach the pinnacle of their lives fell back to the ground like deflated balloons.
In the previous few matches, their opponents were so weak that no one paid attention to them at all.
Today's match, with Lu Li and Water Fairy's participation in the commentary, received the attention of millions of people.
The performance of the two newcomers was naturally noticed by many people. No matter who they were, even if they were competitors, they were always tolerant of newcomers. Therefore, they were never stingy with giving the newcomers more applause.
Perhaps it was these limitless praises that made the two newcomers feel smug.
"Do you really think they're praising you?" Cat Dad said faintly, "They're trying to destroy you. That's called flattery!"
Beicheng Ice Cream and Berserk Sea Cow looked at each other with cold sweat running down their spines.
"Alright, let's analyse your match today," Lu Li said as he turned on the big virtual screen. The details of today's match were played on it, from start to finish. This was a step that no club would skip.
"Mu Qiu played well. I should say very well. I'm sure he's been practicing in private." Although Cat Dad could also see that Mu Qiu did not handle a few small details very well, the flaws did not obscure the beauty. It was much better than what everyone had expected.
"It feels good. There's nothing I can't adapt to," Mu Qiu said calmly.
"We don't have to worry about Mu Qiu." Lu Li was the one who had the most confidence in Mu Qiu. He was probably more at ease than Mu Qiu himself. "What I need to say is, Mu Qiu, you don't have to work so hard. Take it easy. It's a good thing for you, and it'll also give the others some opportunities to perform."
Everyone laughed when they heard that. The current opponents did not require them to go all out.
"Monkey didn't have any outstanding performances, so I won't say anything about him." There was really nothing much to say. The public would support newcomers appropriately or inappropriately. There was no need to show mercy to people like Fei Houzi, who were no longer newcomers.
However, there had always been people saying that Fei Houzi was the most likely to become the new Mage God. This could only mean that this wild monkey, who had never been properly trained, was very good.
He was not lacking in talent, had a good mentality, and was willing to participate in training diligently.
If you asked Lu Li to find fault with Fei Houzi, he really could not find any.
"Don't work so hard, Short Road. You're just here to experience the match. Your main focus is on healing and resting." Lu Li was also very confident in Short Road. In his memory from his previous life, Short Road was not as good as Fei Houzi, mainly because of his body. However, no matter what, Short Road was a very good competitor.
"Don't be too harsh on them. The newcomers did well this time," Cat Dad said, trying to ease the atmosphere.
"You have to let them know their place. That's the only way to have peace of mind," Lu Li sighed, then broke down some of the techniques of the two newcomers and explained it to Cat Dad.
This kind of explanation was completely different from the one that was given in the commentator's seat.
It was much more professional and detailed. The two newcomers, North City Ice Cream and Berserk Sea Cow, gained a lot from listening and were even more convinced by what Lu Li had said before.
Some clubs would hire some theoretical experts to do this kind of thing. These experts might not be good at the mechanics, but they had a good eye for detail and summarization. The price of hiring them was very expensive. At least, Ruling Sword wasn't that extravagant.
