This caused a lot of drama within Drizzle Court.
Before the tournament season, teams would have to register their players on their roster in order for them to participate. However, since there wasn’t a limit on how many players could be registered, many guilds would register as many players as possible as a backup.
Throughout the tournament, only registered players could participate. Even if they somehow managed to poach a God-like player during free agency, they would have to wait until the next season to participate.
This also meant that Drizzle Court could not find a backup from Peerless City.
There was no way that Drizzle Court would allow Songs of Fries to continue to participate.
Though Songs of Fries had said that he would try his best for the rest of the season, his departure had put a stain on Drizzle Court’s name.
Do we know which team poached him?
Lu Li asked as he raised his head from a pile of documents.
The morning after the dinner, the news was announced on the gaming forums. Lu Li hadn’t even had the chance to call Water Fairy to see what was happening. She would probably be too busy to answer anyway. All of this information was coming from the Morning News, but this was mainly an Entertainment program, so the source couldn’t be trusted completely.
I’m not sure. Apparently they signed a paper of confidentiality. It doesn’t matter who poached him because Water Fairy won’t use him anymore for sure. Are you worried about her?
Square Root Three asked as he sat down next to Lu Li and reached for a document.
Oh, these are the shares of the guild. Why are you looking at this?
Square Root Three laughed.
For long term success and stability, it might be better for us to figure out the specifics for the shares. We should look into this more. Brother Three, you know this stuff better than me. Why don’t you take a look as well?
Lu Li rubbed his temples because he was confused.
I graduated years ago and have forgotten everything already.
Square Root Three couldn’t be bothered, but still looked at it for Lu Li’s sake.
Drizzle Court should be doing fine; they registered quite a few players. Water Fairy has enough resources to get by, and it’s not like Song of Fries was a super important player on her team,
Lu Li said calmly.
Lu Li was the type to worry about himself before worrying about others. Although he wasn’t well-educated, he had learnt since a very young age not to worry about others unless he had the ability to do so.
When he first heard that someone from Drizzle Court was poached, he worried about how much chaos it would cause internally and what the best thing for him to do would be. In the end, the player turned out to be a second-tier competitor and he was able to calm down. However, this ordeal had tarnished Drizzle Court’s reputation and name.
Drizzle Court faces off against Glory Capital tomorrow and their chances of losing are about 99%. What do you reckon?
Square Root Three asked.
Whatever you say,
Lu Li muttered, sounding bitter.
Pfft, quit being in denial. Even if we were to face off against Glory Capital right now, our chances of losing are still quite high,
Square Root Three laughed.
If it’s a close match, then we would be fighting them for the championship, but if we get completely stomped, we might as well not even bother entering the finals.
Deep down, Lu Li knew that Square Root Three was right, but why would he make Lu Li doubt himself?
Was he being pessimistic because he didn’t want to be disappointed?
Also, are we still lending the equipment?
Yes, let them pick it out,
Lu Li said, not hesitating for a second.
No matter what happened, it was undeniable that Drizzle Court had done as much as they could to help Ruling Sword. Peerless City even helped some of the players from Ruling Swords to level up.
This was why Lu Li decided to give almost half of his equips to Water Fairy. Although they might not have been as good Attributes-wise, Lu Li’s gear was more suited towards Water Fairy’s play style. If Water Fairy ran away with these equips, then Ruling Sword would have no chance against Glory Capital.
Glory Capital had the home court advantage and picked out the map.
Water Fairy did not participate last time, but finally showed up in this match. Every time Water Fairy appeared in real life, everyone was stunned by her beauty. It seemed as though each time she showed up, she became prettier. There were pictures of her arriving at the airport recently and all of her male fans were busy changing their computer backgrounds.
As for Lu Li, his background was still the default one.
When she was interviewed, she answered all of the questions regarding Song of Fries.
Lu Li was sipping on tea with his little sister at the time and spat out the drink when he heard what she said.
If my players had better opportunities, I would support them 100%. However, if they were to betray my guild behind my back, then there would be consequences,
Water Fairy said gently, but her words were sharp and hurtful.
Whichever guild poached him will be our enemies for the foreseeable future – no exceptions!
Ahhh, Sister Water is so scary, but I love her so much. I think I’m going to marry her. Big Brother, maybe you should find a new girlfriend,
Lu Xin blurted out.
Lu Li had just coughed out tea because and now he was able to cough up blood.
There were many fans of Water Fairy that were jealous of her relationship with Lu Li. However, the only person that dared to stand up to him was his own sister.
Usually in these situations, people would prepare very vague and general prewritten answers, for example,
We’re very happy to see our players seizing new opportunities. All the best for him….
Water Fairy’s answer completely took the interviewers by surprise.
The faces of the people who were there to pick up players from Glory Capital turned sour.
Whether it was them or not, it seemed as if Water Fairy was suggesting that it was Glory Capital.
Becoming enemies with Glory Capital might not have been the smartest idea, but they would definitely give them a run for their money.
Glory Capital were probably sweating right now.
