Chapter 143 - Unexpected Discovery (1/2)

The two character’s health bars dropped to zero at the same time.

Of course this type of situation could occur. In an official match, the two characters that died at the same time would recover a fifth of their hp and fight again. As for in the Arena, that depended on what the players decided. The normal setting was that it would be considered a draw, where there would be no winner or loser.

When Ye Xiu created the room, besides setting up the Gambling, he didn’t touch anything else, so it was in the normal setting.

The practice room in Team Tiny Herb was in awesome silence. After a while, someone suddenly sighed: “That’s our captain!!”

The other team members immediately added as if they had woken up from a dream: “Yeah, yeah!”

But on w.a.n.g Jiexi’s face, there wasn’t any sort of happiness or anger on his face. He only let out a sigh and then took off his headphones.

The practice room immediately went silent.

A draw. Even though it was already an achievement that none of the other teammates were able to get, being happy about a draw shouldn’t be a Champion team’s att.i.tude. As a result, everyone was gasping at their captain’s amazingness, but they weren’t showing any happiness, especially after they saw their captain’s somber expression.

“That’ll be all for today!” w.a.n.g Jiexi announced.

“Yes.” Everyone answered.

“In the future, every day, two players form a team. You’re all free to choose who you want to team up with. Then go contact Lord Grim and spar with him. This extra practice isn’t required by the Club, but I hope that everyone will do it and learn from it. I think everyone knows what type of person Ye Qiu is. His experience, his knowledge, and even his trash talk are all things that we can learn from him.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

“Yes.”

“Okay, everyone go to sleep! Don’t be late for tomorrow morning’s practice.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

The team members all logged out of the game and got up. They found their friends and left together. Some discovered that their captain was still in his seat and hadn’t moved. However, they weren’t meddlesome and didn’t question. After a short moment, the only person left in the practice room was w.a.n.g Jiexi.

Back in the game, since all of his challengers had gone offline, Ye Xiu saw that it looked like they weren’t going to keep fighting, so he closed the room. His screen jumped to the Arena selection screen. After w.a.n.g Jiexi exited out, he returned to outside the Arena’s entrance and saw that Lord Grim was currently talking with their Herb Garden’s Plantago Seed!

“It must have been hard. How many materials do you have left in your storeroom?” Ye Xiu asked this just as w.a.n.g Jiexi’s Fiery Blaze walked up.

Plantago Seed was obviously very gloomy and didn’t know how to respond. He suddenly saw G.o.d Jiexi’s character walk over and immediately stepped to the side subconsciously.

“Oh? You still haven’t left?” Ye Xiu saw him.

“Yeah.” w.a.n.g Jiexi answered.

“How was it? Did it boost your team’s morale?” Ye Xiu laughed.

“If you just directly let me win, wouldn’t that be even better?” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

“I don’t want to lose either!” Ye Xiu said.

“Yeah, no one wants to lose.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

“Yeah, if I lose, then I lose materials.” Ye Xiu pointed out.

“…….” w.a.n.g Jiexi had never connected winning or losing and those materials together. He didn’t care whether they won or lost materials. But the person in front of him, who was supposed to be a G.o.d level player like himself and whose history was even grander than his, was haggling because of these tiny materials?

If it was earlier, when w.a.n.g Jiexi hadn’t yet seen Ye Xiu’s intentions, he would have thought that Ye Xiu had fallen and was at the end of his road. However, after seeing Ye Xiu training new players and pursuing materials, w.a.n.g Jiexi knew that such a feeling was too superficial.

“My teammates will come look for you every night.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

“Welcome, welcome. The rules will be the same as before.” Ye Xiu said.

“Plantago Seed. You should try to provide the materials as best as you can. I’ll contact you.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

“Oh……” Plantago Seed replied. The materials they had gotten were mainly for the Club and in the end, they were to help their Team. Right now, seeing that G.o.d Jiexi had spoken, Plantago Seed didn’t feel any heart aches. It’s not like the materials were his anyways. Except who exactly was this Lord Grim? Plantago Seed was even more curious now. Seeing how this person talked with G.o.d Jiexi, it seemed like they recognized each other, neither familiar nor new with each other, who was this person? Could he be……

“Okay. I’ll be leaving first then.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said.

“Really? Just like that? The dungeons will be refreshed in a bit. You’re not going to dungeon?” Ye Xiu said.

“I’ll be cheering you on.” w.a.n.g Jiexi said. How he could have the time for such a low-leveled dungeon?

“Go back and tell your teammates to level up well! I train for ten hours every day. If the gap between us grows too big, I won’t be responsible.” Ye Xiu said.
