Pre-Season

Stray Circus Conference Room.

Wang Shun opens the panel, displays all the information, and explains the next steps in a clear and organized manner:

"Now that we've won the stage and the preseason is coming to a close, our next opponents are all teams from the High Circle, and while the combat isn't as strong as that of Lamb of Frenzy, we shouldn't take it lightly."

As he was talking, Bai Liu pushed the door and came in, he went straight to the front chair and turned to sit down, raising his hand to signal Wang Shun to continue.

Wang Shun nodded to Bai Liu and continued his commentary, "President Bai, Captain Tang, and I have discussed this, and we feel that your training and bonding is almost complete, and that the next focus of your league will be on the group matches."

Bai Liu turned around, leaning on the back of his chair and tapping his fingers on the desktop in front of Mu Sicheng, who was dozing off, "Do you know what the focus of the group match is?"

Mu Sicheng is supporting his head drooped drowsily, he out of the game when the injury, but also spent a lot of energy, now full of exhaustion, now by Bai Liu cue before shaking his head to wake up, confused look at Bai Liu: "...... cooperation consciousness? "

"No." Wang Shun looked worriedly at Mu Sicheng, "It's the energy, God Mu."

"Next you'll be playing not only a solo match, a duo match, and a team match, and unlike the training in the game pool and the small pre-season matches before that, they'll basically be at an intensity not dissimilar to this duo match today."

"Unlike mental value and physical strength that can be restored by potions, your consciousness maintains a very tense state during such high-intensity battles, which is very draining of energy, and this will also cause you to feel fatigued and your state to slip very badly."

Wang Shun looked at Bai Liu worriedly, "Chairman, playing two strong teams in a row, God Mu and the newcomers may not be able to keep up with their energy, so the order of playing will have to be carefully discussed."

"I came back mainly to discuss this matter with you guys as well." Bai Liu crossed his arms in front of him, "Liu Jiayi is the most important one among the group tournament players, she needs to keep her form, and her skills are not suitable for solo and duo tournaments, so she's only going out for group tournaments."

"Mu Ke, you can put out a single match when you're in good shape, and Mu Sicheng and I will ride in a double match."

Bai Liu looked up to all of them, "The regulars for the singles matches are usually Captain Tang and I. The regular pairing for the doubles matches is Mu Sicheng and I. Do you have any comments?"

Tang Er hit the lead and nodded, "I'm all for it, no comment."

"I have an opinion." Mu Sicheng immediately followed suit and objected.

"You've got you in the fixed players for the single matches, you're in the fixed pairings for the double matches, and you're still the tactician for the group matches?" Mu Sicheng's eyebrows were so twisted that they could be knotted, "No, Bai Liu, for two matches in a row you said that we newbies wouldn't be able to keep up with our energies, and you're a newbie yourself, so for three matches in a row, will you be able to keep up with your energies?"

He had just played a game like that, and after being skilled by that Yang Zhi and Kong Xuyang, Mu Sicheng Braintrust was still buzzing, and once he got off the field, his eyelids fell down, and he just wanted to sleep, so he didn't have to think about how much those even more outrageous skills in the future would hurt the player's consciousness.

Bai Liu, who has been holding out for three matches, must be exhausted.

When Mu Sicheng's words came to this point, Tang Er was stunned and relieved.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with this arrangement at the time, because in other world lines, Bai Liu also played three games in a row all year round, but now when he thinks about it, the current Bai Liu is still a pure newcomer in his first year on the league field, playing against a strong team and playing three games in a row is indeed a bit outrageous.

Replacing him wouldn't even be enough to stay in shape for three games.

Liu Jiayi made a suggestion, "I don't have any problem with my allocation, but Bai Liu you have a big problem with your allocation, I won't say anything about the single match, in terms of skills it is true that Mu Ke, you, and Tang Er are playing three people with offensive skills to play the rotation appropriately, but in the double match it's not necessary for you to do a fixed pairing with Mu Sicheng. "

Mu Ke muses, "The pairings for the pairs could be fixed for me or Mu Sicheng, with the rest of the team rotating, would that work?"

"But Mu Sicheng's fit is not enough to sustain the rest of the team in rotation." Bai Liu analyzes in a flat tone, "The only team member who can be fixed in a duo is me, and I can work with everyone."

"But Tang Er hit and Mu Ke will rotate in the singles, so picking Mu Sicheng to be my double partner was the best fit."

Liu Jiayi's lips pursed up, she could not refute.

In fact, everyone knows that Bai Liu's proposal is the best, but at the same time, this proposal is also the most consuming for Bai Liu himself.

"If everyone has no other comments." Bai Liu stood up and faintly announced the resolution, "Then the tactical platoon is settled for now, everyone is tired today, go back and rest first."

Everyone clearly had objections in their hearts, but looking at the blue and black of Bai Liu's eyes and the fatigue on his face, they swallowed their objections.

...... The most tired person today is Bai Liu, he does need to get some rest.

Wang Shun couldn't help but glance at Bai Liu.

In fact, Bai Liu had already decided on this layout before, and Wang Shun was strongly against it, but was easily convinced by Bai Liu in a few words, and finally Wang Shun had to retort that the rest of the team wouldn't agree to it.

Bai Liu just smiled and said they would agree.

Wang Shun at the time thought it was unlikely that the team members were still worried about Bai Liu and couldn't possibly let him consume himself in this way, but as it turned out, Bai Liu took advantage of his teammates' worries to trivialize the matter.

Wang Shun sighed as he organized the paperwork in his hands.

It's like that again, ostensibly under the banner of consulting with them, or the same Chairman Baek who decided everything on his own.

There's no telling who will get the overly egotistical tactician to change his mind.

When Bai Liu and his group logged out of the game, night had already fallen in the real world.

Du Sanying didn't log into the game to watch this one because he forgot about it, and then snapped back to it when he saw Bai Liu go home.

Du Sanying bowed a hundred and eighty degrees frantically at Bai Liu, terrified, "I'm sorry Mr. Bai Liu! I really forgot!"

"Never mind." Bai Liu enters and casually removes his tie and hangs it on the coat rack as he walks towards the house, he smiles at Du Sanying, "We won, what did you have to eat today?"

In Bai Liu's mouth, winning is so simply mentioned, as if it is as trivial and natural to him as three meals a day.

Du Sanying was also naturally carried away by Bai Liu, who began trying to remember what he had eaten: "Beef noodles in the morning, and roast goose boxed lunch at noon."

"Haven't you eaten yet tonight?" Bai Liu lay back on the couch and pulled his cell phone out of his suit pants, lazily leaning back to look at Du Sanying, "How about I treat you to hot pot?"

Because Bai Liu had taken off his tie, from Du Sanying's point of view, he could see the knot in Bai Liu's throat sliding slightly up and down under the first button of his shirt, his collarbones and spine loosely flaring out, his shoulders and neck slumping to fit the sofa, and his eyes half-closed.

Bai Liu's posture stunned Du Sanying for a moment.

For some reason, Du Sanying felt that Mr. Bai Liu was very relaxed today, as if he was in a good mood.

Is it because you won the game?

But it doesn't seem to be the case in the past when Mr. Bai Liu won a match ......

Bai Liu looked up at Du Sanying obliquely and shook the cell phone in his hand, "Eat? I'll ask the others to join me if you'd like to eat?"

Du Sanying is flattered, "No, it doesn't break the bank, does it?"

"It doesn't break the bank." Bai Liu smiles, "I'll call someone then?"

In less than a second, Du Sanying heard Bai Liu call, "Lu Yizhan, are you off duty?"

Du Sanying vaguely heard the other side seem to say something about complaining about overtime, Bai Liu smiled a little.

"Old Lu, I won the game against Rabid Lamb." Bai Liu lowered his eyes, casually mentioning it in a casual manner, "Celebrate today, go to your house for hot pot?"

Du Sanying listened in awe - he'd been schooled by Wang Shun, and knew that in-game things were ineffective when told to a layman.

Why would Mr. Bai Liu suddenly talk to an ordinary person about things in the game?

Bai Liu reached out and put his hand on the back of the sofa, tapping his fingers regularly, Du Sanying couldn't help but count along - seven times.

Seven clicks later, Du Sanying heard Bai Liu's confused voice on the phone, "Bai Liu, what did you just say?"

Bai Liu smiled again, the smile is very shallow, like a layer of clouds floating on his face, the wind will blow a moment to disperse.

"Nothing much." Bai Liu said, "Just remembered that it's been a while since I went to see Sister Dot for dinner."

Opposite Lu Yizhan also silent for a moment, also laughed a little: "Yes, the year before last, after your birthday, also do not know what things went through, you seem to suddenly grow up like, dead not willing to come up to my house for dinner, in the past at least you were willing to buy two pounds of discounted oranges to dilly-dally."

Lu Yizhan said, unable to hide his sigh: "In the past, Fang Dian and I used to celebrate your birthday every year, but then you didn't want to have a birthday either."

"Speaking of which, your birthday is coming up this year, right?"

Bai Liu gave a dispensable hmmm.

Lu Yizhan's voice brought a bit of flirtatious laughter, "What, are you returning to your old age or nostalgia when you reach 25, finally willing to come up to your point sister's house for dinner and willing to let us celebrate your birthday?"

"But it's still a bit early to celebrate, let's simply hit a hot pot for dinner today." Lu Yizhan recited, "I'm not off work yet, you go buy food yourself first, Sister Dot is at home, you have a key to our house, buy what you want to eat yourself, go back to the house and let your Sister Dot make it for you, the money for the food I'll transfer it to you later ......"

"Eh forget it, your point sister can't cook, you two take care of the dishes first, or wait for me to come back to get ......"

"Lu Yizhan." Bai Liu spoke abruptly to interrupt Lu Yizhan, "If one day, there's a game that both you and I really want to win, will you still lose to me on purpose?"

Lu Yizhan's side was quiet for a long time, then laughed very, very softly, as if on an air tone, "No."

"I'll fight tooth and nail to beat you, Bai Liu."
