I changed football.

October 15, 2015, is a day that Li Yuan will never forget.

This day marked Li Yuan's promotion to Monaco's B team. On the same day, he was promoted from Monaco U19 to Monaco's B team along with Kylian Mbappé, who was the same age as him.

Originally, this would have been the starting point for the young prodigy Li Yuan's rise to fame, and many Chinese fans were looking forward to his future performance.

Because Li Yuan was a prodigy at the time, dominating the French U19 league. Although his statistics were not as good as Mbappe's, he was still considered the team's number two player.

However, a car accident ended Li Yuan's football career, who had just been promoted to Monaco B team.

Broken leg.

The two words, gleaming brightly, appeared in the news.

It has to be said that this is a regret, and this regret has become even more intense after Li Yuan's former teammate Mbappe became a world-class player.

Many Chinese football fans will inevitably have fantasies.

"What would have happened if Li Yuan hadn't been in that car accident back then?"

"If Li Yuan hadn't broken his leg and had to leave football, he could at least have played in Ligue 1. That's an understatement. At the time, Li Yuan was determined to join the first team, so he stayed at Monaco. In fact, there were already mid-to-lower-tier Ligue 1 teams that wanted to sign him."

"Yeah, if Li Yuan hadn't been injured, we would have a player playing in one of the top five leagues. He was only 17 when he broke his leg! He was also a left-footed right winger, the rarest type of attacking player in football. It's such a pity!"

It's such a pity.

Li Yuan reappeared in the public eye at the 2022 World Cup, where he became a commentator for Migu.

Then Li Yuan became a football-related internet celebrity.

By 2026, Li Yuan will be the most popular football influencer on the entire internet. Not only will he be a football influencer, but he will also obtain a coaching certificate in 2026 and prepare to switch careers to become a coach.

Many Chinese fans think Li Yuan is doing quite well now. He's a popular internet celebrity with a huge following, and now he's going to be a coach. He's taken a different path, and he's doing quite well.

However, Li Yuan still thinks about those days in Monaco when he is in the middle of the night.

He joined the Monaco U17 team at the age of 15 through a collaboration between the Chinese Football Association and the French Football League.

None of the Chinese players who went with him at the time were able to stay after a year.

A year later, Li Yuan was promoted to the U19 team and became teammates with Mbappe.

The two players, one a left winger and the other a right winger, cooperated seamlessly in the U19 team.

just now.

Li Yuan often thought that he was just unlucky that day.

While I was waiting at the traffic light, the Frenchman next to me had already crossed the red light; that's standard practice.

But Li Yuan was still waiting for the green light.

As it turned out, the French truck also disregarded traffic rules and ran a red light.

It hit Li Yuan, who was patiently waiting for the green light on the side of the road.

According to the doctor, "It's a miracle you didn't die. You'll still be able to walk, but don't even think about strenuous exercise."

Li Yuan was actually quite relieved at the time.

However, as time went on, Li Yuan's regret grew deeper and deeper.

"Why do I have to go out after dark?"

Why did I suddenly want to go to the supermarket that day?

In short, all sorts of regrets kept coming at me.

Then--

One day, I woke up.

Li Yuan discovered that he had been reborn.

Because he showed up in Monaco's players' dormitory.

Although he only stayed there for two years, he was extremely familiar with this place.

Perhaps because he often fantasizes like this, Li Yuan quickly accepted the fact that he had been reborn after a brief moment of distraction.

He was excited, happy, and ecstatic.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he touched his left leg almost greedily.

This is a leg that has never been in a car accident.

This is his preferred foot.

This is the leg from which he scored so many goals in the U19 league.

Then, Li Yuan thought of something and quickly walked to the bathroom mirror.

"It is indeed very immature."

Li Yuan looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Li Yuan looked very young and inexperienced in the mirror, with slightly upturned eyebrows that gave him a sharp edge amidst his youthful appearance.

The light in his eyes also made Li Yuan look very youthful and energetic.

His slightly thin face looks very handsome.

Li Yuan lingered in front of the mirror, seemingly reluctant to leave.

At that moment, a screen of light suddenly appeared in front of Li Yuan.

The Mountain Peak System is now available.

"The system?"

Li Yuan quickly accepted the fact that he had a system. After all, he had already experienced rebirth, so having a system didn't seem so hard to accept.

Rebirth plus a system—this is practically a huge cheat code!

Li Yuan asked excitedly, "What functions does your system have?"

This system aims to help users realize and surpass their own talents.

The user's talent has been tested and is classified as intercontinental level.

Talent levels are divided into: Legendary, World-class, Continental, National Team-level, League-level, and Beginner-level.

[Note: Talent levels are based on European league standards. For example, "national team level" refers to the level of a regular starter in a European national team. Each talent level has a very large upper and lower limit, so please consider it carefully.]

"My Intercontinental-class looks pretty impressive; it's probably a third-tier one."

This system aims to help users realize and surpass their talents. A new user gift pack is available. Would you like to activate it?

"Of course it's on! What are we waiting for?"

Li Yuan is the type of person who plays gacha games and will immediately draw a card once he has saved up enough for one draw, so he won't wait.

[New Player Gift Pack Now Available]

[Obtained: Talent Enhancement Potion, 10 Bandages, Cristiano Ronaldo's Shin Guards (Right)]

"System, please explain them to me one by one. I understand what 'Talent Enhancement Potion' means, but what do the last two mean?"

[Talent Enhancement Potion, an epic-level item, usable only once, and obtainable only once upon system activation. Upon use, it directly increases the user's talent level by two tiers. It is recommended that users use this item at League level or above to maximize its effect.]

"Wait! I'm currently at the Intercontinental level. If I advance two levels, wouldn't that make me a Legendary level? Wow! Does that mean I'd be on par with Messi and Ronaldo?"

Talent level only determines your talent level, not your career achievements. Please think clearly, train hard, compete seriously, improve your skills, and fully utilize your talent. Don't waste your talent.

Do you need me to give examples of players in football history who wasted their talent?

"Um, you look a bit like a steamed bun? Never mind, never mind. Please continue introducing the other two props."

Li Yuan was actually very excited and wanted to use the [Talent Enhancement Potion] immediately, but unlike in games, he could restrain himself in the face of such a big event in real life.

He decided to listen to the entire explanation from the system before using it.

[Bandage, a rare item, is a single-use item that can be reused multiple times, but the effects of a single use do not stack. How to use: Can be used directly after injury to slightly accelerate recovery.]

"This is good stuff too, they gave me 10!"

Li Yuan was halfway through his thought when he suddenly remembered, "You mentioned an epic-level item earlier, and now it's a rare-level item. Items have levels too, right?"

There are 5 tiers of items: Epic, Legendary, Artifact, Rare, and Common.

"It really is just like a game—okay, go on with that last one, Ronaldo's right shin guard, what is that?"

[Cristiano Ronaldo's shin guard (right), a legendary item, is an equipment-type item that can be equipped directly without any usage requirements. Once equipped, it applies directly to any shin guard (right) worn by the user. After use, it enhances the user's right foot's weaker ability and increases the user's right leg's resistance to injury. Note: This item can be combined with another item to form a set bonus.]

"Another prop? Could it be Messi's left shin guard?"

[Specific details about this item cannot be provided at this time. It can be obtained by completing tasks.]

"This is indeed a good thing. I'm a left-footed player, and I can cross with my right foot, but with this gadget, I might be able to shoot with my right foot too."

Suddenly, Li Yuan remembered something: "Right, what about the most important attribute value in a football game?"

[This system does not display attribute values. The real world is not a game, and attribute values ​​cannot perfectly summarize a football player's skills. Digitizing real-world data is beyond the capabilities of this system.]

"Um, I think your ability is already quite extraordinary. You've managed to elevate my talent to its highest level, which is equivalent to the Marrow Cleansing Scripture."

Li Yuan wasn't bothered by it. He wasn't particularly interested in numerical values ​​anyway. When he played Football Manager in his previous life, he never evaluated a player based on various statistics.

The same goes for novels. In his previous life, he particularly enjoyed reading infinite flow novels for a period of time, but compared to Ace Evolution, he still preferred Infinite Terror, simply because Ace Evolution contained various data.

This might also be related to his poor math skills.

Li Yuan stood in front of the bathroom mirror, looking at his reflection repeatedly.

He didn't want to leave.

"Li, do you need to use the restroom again?"

A voice rang out.

It was only then that Li Yuan remembered, "Oh right, I do have a roommate."

Li Yuan looked over.

This is a somewhat unfamiliar face.

He's Black, shorter than me, looks like he's a little over 1.7 meters tall.

She wore a dirty braid.

"Oh! It's Riley Fortach!"

Li Yuan remembered that his roommate in his previous life had only been his teammate for about two months. It seemed that he returned to Senegal at the end of 2015 and ultimately did not get to play professional football.

Li Yuan had also followed his news in his previous life.

After his injury in his previous life, Li Yuan had been frantically scrolling through news about his teammates in the Monaco U19 team.

Seeing other players leave professional football is bittersweet, and I feel sad for them.

But who knows the bitterness of seeing Mbappe become world-renowned in the Champions League?

Fortunately, there is now a possibility that everything can be reversed.
