While Li Ang was taking a nap in his seat, the system's voice suddenly sounded in Li Ang's mind.
"Congratulations on leading your team into the knockout stage of the UEFA Europa League and triggering the main quest [Light of Europe]!"
"[The Light of Europe]: Led the team to the final of the UEFA Europa League this season and finally lifted the championship trophy.
This is a two-tier quest. Depending on how well you complete it, there will be different rewards and punishments.
If you fail to reach the final, you will fail the quest and drop a random skill.
If you reach the final, you will only be the runner-up. There will be no reward or punishment.
If you lift the UEFA Europa League trophy, you will be rewarded with the beginner skill [Sky-Stealing Sun-Swapping]. "

Li Ang couldn't help but have a headache. The system's quests with punishments were usually more difficult to complete. The system seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for the 'host.' The more difficult the quest, the more punishment it would have.
Of course, the reward for completing such a main quest with punishments was also very generous.
The difficulty of leading Sporting Gihon to the finals of the UEFA Europa League was unimaginable. With Sporting Gihon's current player configuration, to complete this task was, to put it bluntly, a little too difficult.
Sporting de Gijón had already reached the knockout stage. Starting from the first round of the knockout stage, the first round of the round of 16, then the eighth round, the quarterfinals, the semifinals, and the final, Sporting de Gijón had to go through four stages, play eight matches, and overcome all difficulties and obstacles to reach the final.
Even though Li Ang was still relatively confident in Sporting de Gijón, which he had single-handedly built, he couldn't guarantee that the team could reach this stage. After all, there were too many unexpected factors in the knockout stage. To put it bluntly, if they were unlucky, Sporting de Gijón might even be defeated in the first round of the knockout stage.
From this, it could be seen how difficult the system's [Light of Europe] quest was.
*****
At this time, Li Ang was interested in the [Sky-Stealing Sun-Swapping] skill reward for completing the [Light of Europe] quest. With the difficulty of this quest, the reward should be quite generous.
He asked the system what the [Sky-Stealing Change] skill was and quickly received an explanation.
[Sky-Stealing Swapping]: A type of robbing skill. This skill can be used in a certain match to steal the opponent's luck and increase one's own luck.
Beginner Level [Sky-Stealing Sun-Swapping]: When this skill is used in a specific match, the opponent's luck will decrease by 20% and your own luck will increase by 20%. The limit is three uses. After three uses, 6,000 Energy Points will be consumed to obtain three more uses.
Li Ang's face lit up with excitement. This skill was pretty awesome. The so-called [Sky-Stealing Change] was to steal the opponent's luck and increase one's own luck. Think about it. In a heavyweight match, the opponent's luck would drop by 20% while one's own luck would increase by 20%. This difference would be obvious. To put it bluntly, it was to let the opponent's luck go down while one's own luck went up.
This was simply the best skill for a Walking Coach in Jianghu to set up traps and plot against others.
Although this Beginner Level [Sky-Stealing Change] skill could only be used three times, and it would consume 6,000 Energy Points to use it again. This price was a bit too high, but it was undeniable that this skill was very good.
Li Ang already had an idea in his mind. Just for this [Sky-Stealing Change] skill, he wanted to do his best to lead the team to win the UEFA Europa League. Not to mention, if he could not enter the finals, he would be punished by the system. Besides, if he could enter the finals, he had to go for the championship trophy. Otherwise, there would be no reward or punishment for being the runner-up. The championship and the runner-up were only one step away. The gap was so big that he had to give it a try no matter what!
After that, Li Ang checked the Experience Points in the Medical System again. He noticed that he was only one step away from leveling up. Li Ang's heart moved. He knew that the increase in Experience Points was linked to the use in reality. He had not done anything else recently. Then, the only thing that could increase Experience Points was that Barthez's condition had improved further.
Li Ang was happy. It was not only because he could gain Experience Points and level up after Barthez's condition improved, but also because he had a good impression of Barthez. He was an optimistic, sunny, and persevering little boy.
