Full-time: The Strongest Sniper

Seeing that Sun Xiang seemed particularly motivated, Cui Li, though wanting to play it safe, didn't want to dampen his spirits since he was the team captain. So, after a moment's thought, he said, "These aren't major issues. Your equipment needs some research anyway, so you can hand it over to the R&D department for now. Go to the guild department and choose a set for temporary use."

Hearing Cui Li's words, Sun Xiang was still somewhat dejected. After all, he had long wanted to dominate the online game with his self-made equipment, but since Cui Li represented the club, he had no choice but to obey. Soon, Cui Li contacted the guild department and instructed them to equip themselves with the corresponding gear. Then, under Sun Xiang's leadership, the Excellent Era players easily cleared a ten-player dungeon.

"It's a pity it wasn't our original equipment, otherwise we could have set a record they could never break." Sun Xiang said with a somewhat dissatisfied expression as he looked at his results.

As a veteran guild, Excellent Dynasty has a much larger number of members than Xiao Nai and his group. Over the past few days, they have managed to collect some orange-tier equipment by virtue of their numerical advantage. Unfortunately, they only have guides for five-player dungeons, and the drop rate of orange-tier equipment in five-player dungeons is extremely low, so their equipment is not even a complete set.

They, who were originally equipped with top-notch self-made gear, have now switched to mismatched orange gear, which is why Sun Xiang complained. Of course, more than anything, he was thrilled to have broken Ye Qiu's record.

Sun Xiang and his group had just emerged from the dungeon when, under the protection of Excellent Dynasty's staff, they headed towards the next ten-player dungeon. Their objective was quite clear: to reclaim all the records previously held by Happy.

"Excellent Era has made its move."

Meanwhile, on Team Happy's side, everyone noticed the moment their record was broken. Jingjing, while speaking, glanced at Xiao Nai and Ye Xiu beside her. Xiao Nai wasn't surprised; after all, they had time to break records, so there was no reason why Excellent Era couldn't.

Ye Xiu opened the player list in the dungeon logs, and IDs he was very familiar with, such as One Autumn Leaf, appeared one after another in his eyes.

"Huh? Why don't I see Mu Cheng here?" Jingjing also clicked on the detailed record and found that Mu Cheng's Mu Yu Cheng Feng was not among them.

“I do know that,” Chen Guo said, taking out her phone. On the screen was a post from Mu Cheng on her WeChat Moments.

"My first day in the strategic boss's office was earth-shattering; I'm never allowed to raise my voice at me again." The accompanying picture shows Mu Cheng doing training on Tao Xuan's computer in Tao Xuan's office.

"Tao Xuan has only been away on a business trip for a day, and Mu Cheng has already taken over his office?" Wei Chen said with some surprise.

After all, Tao Xuan only wanted to settle things with Ye Xiu on the field, and he disdained using such petty tricks. In his view, instead of trying to break records, it was better to let the players train more. As long as they were strong enough, defeating their opponent in the Challenger League would solve everything.

In fact, he felt that Ye Xiu and his team were now spending their precious energy grinding dungeons, which was just a way of increasing their training and improvement time. So he was quite opposed to this plan. But as he said before, Excellent Era was no longer just his Excellent Era. As Excellent Era had become more and more commercialized over the years, many things were no longer something he, as the boss, could decide with a single word.

Objectively speaking, if this method can indeed weaken Happy's strength, it is indeed worth doing. It's understandable that shareholders and investors would have such thoughts, after all, it's a normal competitive tactic, and there's nothing wrong with it. It's just that he doesn't quite approve of it, so he's been flying around everywhere lately, negotiating business deals.

The reason Mu Cheng was in Tao Xuan's office was quite simple; she probably had a falling out with the other members of Excellent Era.

In reality, Xiao Shiqin, Mu Cheng, and Tao Xuan shared the same idea, but as the vice-captain, he couldn't leave. Mu Cheng, however, was different. The current members of the Excellent Era team were all complaining about Ye Qiu, believing that everything he was doing was for revenge, without considering that it was their own incompetence that led to their relegation to the Challenger League.

The root cause lies with them from beginning to end, but the blame is always placed on Ye Xiu.

As a professional player, Mu Cheng would approach the competition with a professional attitude, but she really didn't want to deal with them in her spare time. Since they never trained or practiced teamwork, Mu Cheng simply stopped going to the training room and took over Tao Xuan's office with his key.

"Mu Cheng is so domineering!"

"Mr. Su is so generous!" "When will Mr. Su buy the alliance?"

…………

A group of friends from the professional scene left various comments below, and the comment section was filled with joy for a while. However, everyone in Happy knew that Mu Cheng was probably not in a very good mood at the moment.

"I have snacks in my drawer, don't eat too many." This was Tao Xuan saying while he was away on a business trip.

"Mu Cheng, do you see that pack of cigarettes on the desk? Remember to take it with you when you leave."

The members of Team Happy: "..." No one needed to look at the profile picture or ID to know who sent the message.

"Ye Xiu, that's enough! Mu Cheng is in a really bad mood right now, and you're still thinking about Tao Xuan's cigarettes!!" Chen Guo punched Ye Xiu on the head. How could this guy be so shameless as to still be thinking about cigarettes at a time like this?
The members of Team Happy all looked at Ye Xiu with an expression that seemed to say, "You're a human being, you bastard."

"Xiao Nai, look at Ye Xiu, he's bullying your disciple!" Jingjing also spoke up for her junior sister.

"This is Ye Xiu comforting Mu Cheng," Xiao Nai said affectionately.

"Comfort?" Jingjing said with an expression that said, "You're not well-educated, don't try to fool me."

"Ultimately, Mu Cheng is angry because she feels Ye Xiu has been treated unfairly, and Ye Xiu's words are just an indication that he's fine and doesn't even care. Taking care of yourself is more important in comparison," Xiao Nai said.

Jingjing: "Black guy with a question mark face.JPG"

Is that what it means?

Jingjing took out her phone and told everyone about Ye Xiu's comment below her post, adding that the Happy team was currently avenging her.

Just as Qiao Jingjing was waiting for Mu Cheng's reply, she heard Ye Xiu's voice: "I'm leaving for a bit, I have some things to take care of. Xiao Nai, I'll leave things here to you."

"Alright, I'll give you half a day off today," Xiao Nai said, waving his hand.

The members of Happy were somewhat surprised. What could possibly happen to Ye Xiu, who was always playing Glory or on the road to Glory?
At that moment, Qiao Jingjing received a reply from Mu Cheng on her phone: "Hehe, there's no need to make things difficult for him. Look, he's come to see me now, isn't he?"

Also included was the QQ message Ye Xiu had just sent to Mu Cheng via computer.

"I remember you said ice cream is for winter, let's go together." (End of Chapter)
