Chapter 266: Reincarnation and Nirvana, Sun Xiang's Masterful Move

Today’s itinerary can almost be said to be perfect for Samsara.

The dark clouds that had been hovering over their heads for the whole year finally turned into a rainbow after the rain today.

First of all, Zhou Zekai is no longer autistic.

In the past year, Zhou Zekai has come out of his shell a little bit, except when he watched Fanhua win the championship and participated in the test of the new version of Honor.
The rest of the time I was in a state of madness.

Practice harder day after day, reflect on yourself day after day, just to win a clean championship.

He was a man of few words to begin with, and this year he only spoke a few words per week. He also lost a lot of weight and looked fragile.

When Jiang Botao and others tried to persuade him, they could only see him waving his hands in a nonchalant manner and his bloodshot, dull eyes.

However, all this changed after Fanhua defeated that damn MSi.

That day, Zhou Zekai did not train for the first time. He got up early and watched the whole process of Fanhua winning the championship.

Not long after I finished watching it, I got the news about testing CSGO from Wei Chen.

Generally, Jiang Botao is the one who responds to such business activities.

But that day, it was Zhou Zekai who personally grabbed the phone and accepted this "job".

Then he locked himself in his room and slept soundly all day.

Zhou Zekai slept all day, and under normal circumstances this would have made the news within the reincarnation circle.

When he came out again, although the weight he had lost in the past year still made him look a little weak, his mental state did make Jiang Botao and others feel relieved.

At least it looks more or less normal.

Then today, it was just a test match with no special meaning.
In a trance, Jiang Botao and the others seemed to see the god descending from heaven in the S8 finals and defeating the gun king of Blue Rain.

Not absolutely. Zhou Zekai talks much more today than he did back then.

Although Samsara is a wealthy family, their most core and best asset is Zhou Zekai, a rare genius.

Now that Zhou Zekai has come out and rekindled his fighting spirit, what is there to worry about in the future of reincarnation?

As for Sun Xiang, it was an unexpected surprise.

When the staff first proposed to let Sun Xiang and Samsara form a team of four, how many concerns did the Samsara members have?

So now, how much do they admire Sun Xiang?

Facts have proved that the one-year decline of Excellent Era and the ups and downs of the past year of suspension of Glory have not made this former super rookie king forgotten by the crowd.

He is still an extremely dazzling star in the field of e-sports.

In the past two games, a total of 43 rounds, Sun Xiang got nearly fifty kills, but the number of deaths did not exceed ten times.

You know, he played a breakthrough role in the reincarnation.

Even though there are various factors such as the opponent's lack of expertise, this record is definitely terrifying.

On the one hand, Sun Xiang was as brave and fearless as ever when he broke through.

His reckless fighting style was supported by his excellent marksmanship and his natural movement skills.

I can only say that Sun Xiang really knows how to transform. It was his first time playing such an FPS game, but he was able to achieve such an effect.

Of course, if he was just good at guns and a reckless man, that wouldn't be enough to make everyone in the reincarnation world envious.

The key is that Sun Xiang showed outstanding discipline for the first time.

He didn't know whether it was because Jiang Botao and Zhou Zekai accepted him readily, which made him feel grateful.
Or maybe he was really awakened by the hardships of the past two years.

Sun Xiang's discipline has actually reached an impeccable level.

Although his breakthrough was fierce and reckless, he would never do anything rash as long as Jiang Botao didn't let him go.

He was also able to meticulously implement tactical arrangements and temporary deployment of some locations.

Even the cooperation with other people in the reincarnation team is quite good.

You know, this is the first time they play together as a team...

Jiang Botao's eyes were somewhat fiery.

Sun Xiang is definitely a piece of pie falling from the sky for Samsara.

It goes without saying that once the CSGO games start, each team will be established.
If you want to get such talents again, you can only spend a lot of money to dig for treasures in youth training.

What about Sun Xiang? His parent team, Yueyun, is a micro-club, and the restrictions on Sun Xiang himself are extremely limited.

I don’t have any competitions to play now. I’m a professional player of Schrödinger’s.

If you want to get him, you have to have better luck in your reincarnation and you don’t even need to spend any money.

Not to mention that he also comes with a lot of compatibility with reincarnation.

Jiang Botao narrowed his eyes slightly.

He's going to start poaching people.

"Erxiang, how do you feel today?" He took two steps forward and hooked his arm around the dazed Sun Xiang's shoulder in a familiar manner.

Ever since a passing manager shouted the words "Erxiang" in front of the camera during a live broadcast, the nickname has spread.

Fans think that whoever came up with this nickname is a genius.

However, hearing other professional players say this still made Sun Xiang subconsciously feel a little uncomfortable.

Sun Xiang shuddered and looked at Jiang Botao in protest. Then he thought about it seriously and said, "It feels pretty good."

The word "reliable teammates" is somewhat unfamiliar to Sun Xiang.

In the two years of professional competition, the best teammate Sun Xiang had ever met was Su Mucheng, who at that time was thinking about when he could retire and help Ye Xiu.

The others either lack the hard power or are just traitors who have lost their ambition.

After cooperating with the Samsara group today, Sun Xiang finally understood one thing:

It's really cool to win the game without having to sacrifice your life...

Seeing that Sun Xiang seemed to have a good impression of the Samsara people, Jiang Botao struck while the iron was hot:

"Then are you interested in the possible restart of the Glory Professional League?"

Sun Xiang was stunned, not understanding why Jiang Botao mentioned Glory at this time.

How could he, a guy whose account was stolen by Pei Yunteng during the internal test, be interested?
When I was filling out the survey report, I seemed to have filled it out in a very simple way...

Sun Xiang shuddered and waved his hands quickly: "I'm not interested. Whoever wants to play the game can play it."

Since you are not interested in Glory, you didn't go to the test of Eternal Tribulation.

Then it seems like there’s no need for you to stay in Yueyun, right?

Jiang Botao smiled, but his true intentions were finally revealed:

"In that case, have you ever considered coming to Samsara to play CSGO with us?"

He extended a hand to Sun Xiang.

“With our foundation and the synergy we’re showing right now, we have a chance to win the championship this year!”

Sun Xiang was stunned.

This was the first professional team to recruit him after the explosion, apart from his hometown Yueyun.

And it’s a behemoth like samsara.

Although the new era has suffered a major setback and the reincarnation cycle has slowed down a step, it seems to be somewhat inferior to before.

But the foundation is there after all.

Sun Xiang tried to think with his seldom used brain, but did not respond immediately: "Aren't you afraid of my reputation——"

"Don't be afraid!" Jiang Botao interrupted him without any hesitation, his eyes full of determination and a little teasing. "You don't think," he smiled self-deprecatingly, "after that finals, we have a good reputation in Samsara, do you?"

He pointed at himself and said, "Look, the skill point God of War is me."

Zhou Zekai on the side also pointed at himself: "Skill Saint."

After finding a new target, the nightmare he once had no longer had the same destructive power on Zhou Zekai.

So much so that he could say the word at this time without any psychological pressure.

Sun Xiang then realized that the guys in front of him had experienced even more hardships than himself.

After all, I am just a non-core link in the internal conflict of the club.

However, the storm they brought almost crushed the Glory Alliance, which was at its peak.

"Now, do you still think we care about that little bit of reputation?" Jiang Botao smiled.

Sun Xiang nodded, but still a little hesitant: "But what about Yueyun?"

"We can help you solve this!" Jiang Botao also anticipated Sun Xiang's possible concerns early on.

"We can send our legal team to negotiate your transfer with Yueyun. If they refuse to let you go, we can even mobilize our connections—"

However, Jiang Botao misunderstood this time.

Sun Xiang shook his head firmly: "No, it's not that Yueyun is blocking me, it's that I don't want to betray them again."

Yue Yun has done his best for Sun Xiang.

When Sun Xiang wanted to transfer to Excellent Era, Yue Yun, who had finally cultivated such a super genius, readily let him go, allowing Sun Xiang to pursue his dream.

And when Sun Xiang was covered in wounds and became a lost dog, it was Yue Yun again who welcomed him back without any disgust and treated him exactly the same as before.

Without Yue Yun, there would be no rebirth of Sun Xiang.

Sun Xiang is not the executive vice-goat. He would not do such an ungrateful thing as betraying his home team twice in a row.

Even Yue Yun would probably support him in doing so.

He had long regarded Yueyun as his home.

Jiang Botao was slightly startled by the sudden determination and unquestionable look in Sun Xiang's eyes.

Unconsciously, the young man who had a high opinion of himself and decisively transferred to a strong team in order to reach a higher stage has now realized this.

He felt somewhat relieved. The bright spots hidden beneath Sun Xiang's silly appearance made him more optimistic about his future.

But we also have to feel a little worried about the current situation.

"If that's the case... well, it's indeed a problem." Jiang Botao had a headache.

Sun Xiang was unwilling to abandon Yue Yun, so he could only find a way to take Yue Yun and his group of burdens along with him.

However, how to lead is a serious problem.

Like the merger between Xingxin Jia Shi and Baihua Royal Wind and Fanhua?

But the size of Lunhui and Yueyun is too different.

In this case, how should the future direction of the club be decided?

Just leave Yueyun's people alone? Would they do such a loss-making business?

As for the acquisition... Yueyun is a top league club after all.

Even though it was not large in size, it shrunk significantly during this year of turmoil.

Samsara had been living beyond its means for a year and its capital chain was very tight. This sum of money was a huge blow to them.

"This is difficult." Jiang Botao groaned in his heart.

Just as he was racking his brains to come up with a suitable plan, Sun Xiang also pondered for a while and suddenly asked:
"Now, what is Yueyun's market value?"

Although he didn't understand why Sun Xiang asked this at this time, Jiang Botao still thought about it and blurted out a number.

I had originally intended to let Sun Xiang know the difficulty of this matter and to let him not be too anxious, but who knew that when Sun Xiang heard this, his eyes lit up:
"I think I can afford this money..."

Yes, Samsara can afford it, but it will cost a lot... Jiang Botao was just wondering whether he should grit his teeth and persuade the management to take such a gamble, when he was suddenly stunned.

What did Sun Xiang just say?

Can he afford it himself?

There was a hint of horror in Jiang Botao's eyes.

He knew that Sun Xiang was a big anchor and earned a lot of money.

But has it come to the point where we can ask for the price of a club?
You know, he started live streaming almost at the same time as Sun Xiang, but because Zhou Zekai didn't broadcast it, the show effect was not that good, and the popularity and income were only so-so.

As a result, Sun Xiang didn't say a word and actually opened up such a huge gap with them?
Is it too late to hug his thigh now?
……

a few days later.

Yueyun Club.

"Erxiang is back? How is it? Are you adapting?" The manager looked at Sun Xiang, who was dragging his suitcase and looking exhausted, and hurriedly went up to him and asked.

"Not bad. This game unexpectedly suits me very well." Sun Xiang nodded, his expression obviously excited.

Hearing that Sun Xiang liked it, the manager smiled. Seeing that Sun Xiang seemed to be hesitant to talk, he had a guess in his mind.

"Has a club invited you to play professionally?" the manager smiled.

"Yes, Samsara. I have a good understanding with them." Sun Xiang nodded.

"Reincarnation? Great, the Gun King is definitely invincible when it comes to guns. You might even be able to win a championship with the team in the future!"

The manager was genuinely happy for Sun Xiang.

Just like in the past, Yue Yun still firmly believes that Sun Xiang's future must be infinitely bright.

What Yue Yun needs to do is to provide him with the best possible protection before the light arrives.
Looking at Sun Xiang's complicated expression, the manager knew very well that this kid would be even more reluctant to leave this time than last time.

"It's okay. When you win the championship in the future, just mention Yueyun's name during interviews. That will be the way you repay this place." He patted Sun Xiang on the shoulder.

Even though he was somewhat reluctant to part with this true Yueyun genius, he would not allow Sun Xiang to miss this opportunity to completely turn things around.

He should be at the top of his career instead of wasting time in such a small place.

Don't hesitate, go ahead, we'll be cheering for you in the audience.

If you don't leave, I'll have to call your old friends and drive you away together.

Unexpectedly, Sun Xiang smiled triumphantly after hearing this: "I knew you would say that."

"But this time, I won't abandon Yueyun and leave again."

The manager was stunned, thinking that Sun Xiang was planning to give up this opportunity and stay in Yueyun forever, so he wanted to kick him out immediately.

Unexpectedly, Sun Xiang suddenly jumped back, created some distance, and opened the suitcase in front of the manager.

He took out a suit that looked quite decent and put it on.

The expression on his face also changed into a hypocritical look.

The manager didn't understand what he was trying to do, but the next moment he couldn't close his mouth.

"Can you get in touch with the boss? I need to talk to him about something important."

"I want to buy Yueyun!"

　First update. I'll try to write more later.

　　The internship ended today and we had a farewell dinner which was quite late. Please bear with me.
