Ji Zhiyao wanted to laugh. “Then Brother Xiao submitted just like that?”

Mo Huaifeng nodded.

Ji Zhiyao was just about to say something but something that Mo Huaifeng had said flashed across his mind, and he was suddenly reminded of a matter. “Mix’s jungler ADC team up, I remember it became famous half a year ago…”

That means, their training…

Only took a total of three to four months?

How was that possible?

Mo Huaifeng shot a glance at him, roughly able to guess what he was thinking, nodding as he confirmed those thoughts. “That’s right.”

Ji Zhiyao pursed his lips.

Mo Huaifeng continued. “So, it’s the same for you and me. At most in half a year’s time, we will definitely work well together. Ji Zhiyao, don’t forget, we only have one goal.

“That is to make it into the international league.”

He stopped, no longer walking forward, his gaze slightly warm. “You don’t need to have any pressure, as long as we make good use of the remaining one year, nothing will be a problem.

“Do you understand, hm?”

Ji Zhiyao looked into Mo Huaifeng’s eyes.

The color of the pupils were still as pretty as he had known them, they were filled with seriousness and some light.

After a few seconds, he suddenly smiled, giving a reply that was evading the question. “Captain, everything you said to me earlier, seemed to be more than what you say in a week.”

Mo Huaifeng frowned in displeasure. “Who said that? I’m not a mute.”

Ji Zhiyao pretended that he didn’t hear any of that as he said, self-absorbed, “Are you thirsty? Let me buy you a drink.”

Without waiting for a Mo Huaifeng’s reply, he took off running towards the inside of the villa. “Captain, hold on for a moment, I’ll go get outerwear.”

Mo Huaifeng was speechless.

This person had said everything, what else could he do?

So troublesome.

But still considered obedient…

Never mind, his own reserve, should still be spoiled.

He lifted the corner of his lips slightly.

…

A week later, in the van heading towards the airport.

As the team specially shifted the time for them to set off to the afternoon, everyone was rather refreshed.

Unlike the structure of competition for the national qualifiers and international league that had both been officially verified, Mix battleteam’s national performance tournament tour was just one where the club received sponsorships and to draw in more fans. In every city, they would invite the most well-known battleteam there for a public training tournament.

In the past because Mix battleteam was too strong, it was very difficult to have teams who were willing to compete publicly, the club could only reluctantly give up on this national performance tournament tour. However, this year was a different story, as Mix had let out news beforehand that the jungler would be Ji Zhiyao, there were many teams who wanted to make use of this chance to size up Mix’s current capabilities.

After all, if Xiao’s hand injury did not recover, the one to go on could only be his reserve, Ji Zhiyao.

Everyone in the vehicle was wrapped in coats, with team uniforms worn on the outside, chatting casually.

Xiao grumbled, “I just don’t understand, isn’t it great to let me have a good rest at the base for a month. I’m not competing anyways, why must you guys drag me along to join the crowd?”

Heng agreed. “Exactly, exactly. It’s been decided that Xiaofei will compete, why call me along?”

Xiaofei asked looking dumbfounded, If NoHomo and I go on at the same time and we lose, who will take the blame?”

“This is indeed a problem…” Ji Zhiyao concurred.

K teased, “Hello hello? How are you, President of Mix Official Fan Club, there are two people here who would like to take the blame after losing a competition, please make arrangements.”

Yuan Wei sighed. “Both of you are really promising huh, we haven’t even started competing and you’re already fighting to take the blame?”

Mo Huaifeng concluded, “They haven’t taken enough beatings.”

Yuan Wei agreed, “I feel the same way, Captain please go ahead.”

Nuo suddenly remembered. “NoHomo, aren’t you still having lessons? The performance tour will take two weeks, what about your lessons?”

The atmosphere instantly quietened down, Ji Zhiyao braced himself up against the attention of everyone in the vehicle, saying, “I went through the content that will be taught this week beforehand and also got my dorm mates to mark my attendance for me, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.”

“That’s great.” Nuo grinned. “I heard it’s very miserable if you fail exams in university, are your end-of-term examinations happening soon.”

Ji Zhiyao glared slightly. “I don’t wish to talk to you anymore.”

His end-of-term examinations were indeed coming soon, around the middle of January. They would test the content from a total of six modules. He totally hadn’t been studying properly this term… just thinking about it gave him a headache.

Ji Zhiyao sighed.

Speaking about his dorm mates who were helping him to mark his attendance… he’d asked Wen Heng and Ning Lichao.

Actually, within the dorm, he was always closer to Yang Bing, but Yang Bing because of the earlier incident, now had some complaints about him, his attitude was also more unnatural than before. Ji Zhiyao decided to simply not ask him for help, in case it was awkward for both of them.

Although it was quite a pity, he had no regrets.

He hoped that there wouldn’t be any problems between Yang Bing and Xing Chuxue…

The van stopped in the parking area of the airport and they pulled opened the door to alight. It was overwhelmingly cold outside, everyone wrapped their clothes tighter and moved swiftly into the airport.

A large group of people going through security checks was also a troublesome matter. By the time everything was done, it was already almost an hour later, just in time for boarding.

There wasn’t even time to stop, everyone hurried onto the plane.

The first stop was A City. In this city, they were about to face two battleteams, Bao Lu and Nx.

Bao Lu was a team newly formed in the recent two years, but because their club was wealthy and spent money to buy a mid-laner who ranked number 37 internationally, they could be considered a thriving team. Much less needed to be said about Nx, an established Chinese team, because they had just brought in Korean reinforcements, their condition was currently unknown, Mo Huaifeng decided to have a look at exactly how much they had changed.

Ji Zhiyao had several leaked videos of Bao Lu battleteam competing stored in the cache of his laptop, right now he had plugged in his headphones and was watching attentively, even taking down some notes from time to time.

By the time he was done with two videos, they were almost arriving at A City.

Ji Zhiyao packed up his stuff, gazing far outside the window.

National performance tournament tour…

He was coming!

…

The tournament in A City was two days later, held in the gymnasium of A University. It was unknown how the club had managed to persuade the authorities of A University that they actually made them specially tidy up several units of apartments for the people of Mix battleteam to stay in, the living conditions weren’t worse off than hotels out there and the most important thing was that it was nearby.

Two people to an apartment, they had already finished discussing the allocation of rooms in the taxi.

The physiotherapist with stats analyzer, K with Nuo, Heng with Xiaofei, Xiao with Yuan Wei, Mo Huaifeng with Ji Zhiyao.

With regards to this, Ji Zhiyao expresses that he feels very aggrieved.

[MelonRind: Speaking logically, Heng is already staying with Xiaofei. Shouldn’t I be in the same room as Brother Xiao?]

[Xiao: My boy, daddy hasn’t doted on you for nothing all this time.]

[KisExtremelyHandsome: NoHomo, do you have complaints against our Captain?]

[MelonRind: That does not exist.]

[DB.MHF: Then what is there to ask?]

Of course it’s because you have a morning temper!

Just that these words, Ji Zhiyao only dared to mutter in his heart, never daring to vocalize them.

With a bawl he started crying.
