"Well, that's it." Sitting in the training room, Xu Yunlong looked at the person in front of him with a serious expression.
Xuan Wu, Zhu Quehuang, Xiao Qingyue, Wang Shuang, plus Xu Yunlong, these are all the current members of the oath team.
And they wasted precious training time in a meeting here, discussing only one thing, about Ye Qiu's call just now, wanting to join the oath.
"If it's just to participate in the competition, I agree." Xuanwu still had the same expression as if someone owed him money for eight lifetimes.
"Brother Ye is pretty awesome." Zhu Quehuang said this from the bottom of his heart. Compared with killing him instantly in solo, he can only admire him now.
"He is younger than you." Xiao Qingyue corrected Zhu Quehuang's name.
Zhu Quehuang's face turned red instantly. As expected, in games, age is not an asset for victory at all.
"As for the members of the second team... do you want to take an assessment to join the team?" Wang Shuang touched his double chin and said thoughtfully, "Also, it's not just about Ye Qiu, it's also about Bi Yan.
Woolen cloth?"
He was not familiar with Bi Qian, and had never heard of such a name in the Dota circle. If he retired, he would not be as famous as Xuan Wu before he retired.
But Xiao Qingyue, Xuan Wu and Xu Yunlong all said that if Bi Zhen could join, it would be a great help, and he had no choice but to say anything.
"I was an old member of oath when it was first established, but he left after playing for half a year." Xu Yunlong briefly introduced, "After Xuanwu left our black team, he joined the mz team that was just established at that time. Later, everyone
After thinking about it, we decided to form a team of our own. But Bi Zhan had to leave the team due to some family matters."
"What's going on at home?" Wang Shuang asked curiously.
"After all, my parents are very traditional. Their son finally got admitted to a prestigious university. How could he be allowed to play such an unreliable game?" Xiao Qingyue sighed.
Wang Shuang immediately understood what was going on. In the e-sports environment at that time, there was no such thing as professional e-sports players. The league was only established in recent years when the country saw the e-sports circle growing stronger.
At that time, there was not much difference between e-sports and playing games. In the eyes of parents, they were both a waste of life and time, and an inducement to not study hard, so ten parents out of ten opposed it.
"So it's not incomprehensible that Bi Juan left. But the kid's life in college was pretty miserable. I don't know what's going on now." Xu Yunlong said and looked at his phone again. He had just sent a message to Bi Juan, and now
Just waiting for his answer.
"Pretty miserable?" Wang Shuang couldn't quite understand what Xu Yunlong meant. How could a prestigious university be so miserable?
"That guy is a bit straight." Xu Yunlong took a puff of cigarette and said in retrospect, "Actually, I met him once two years ago. At that time, I happened to go to Shanghai for a competition. I bumped into that guy when I went out to enjoy the night.
His nose was bruised and his face was swollen after being beaten. Then during those few days in Shanghai, I asked him to stay at my place to get away."
"Eh? Why didn't I know?!" Xiao Qingyue shouted.
"You and Shu Ru'an go to the mall every day, of course you wouldn't know."
"How can I go shopping every day?" Xiao Qingyue was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and her hair suddenly exploded. Wang Shuang and Zhu Quehuang, who were watching from the side, knew that Xu Yunlong was right.
"Why was he beaten?" Xuanwu obviously didn't know about this episode.
"I don't know the specifics, and he didn't tell me." Xu Yunlong said that he didn't know anything. "But it seems that he was targeted by someone, and he borrowed a lot of money from me. I don't know that it has calmed down now."
No."
"He's fine. He's living a good life now." Xuan Wu gave Xu Yunlong the answer, "I met him when we were filming Ladder to Heaven, so we got in touch again."
"That's good, he's a very good kid." Xu Yunlong said and looked at the phone again, "The operation is also very good, his hands are fast enough."
"Then I should graduate from college this year." Wang Shuang said and frowned, "Will I take the postgraduate entrance examination?"
"If this is the case, then we can only find someone else." Xu Yunlong became a little melancholy, but he still insisted that if he wanted to recruit people, he must recruit people who can do it, or who are really worthy like Zhu Quehuang.
Cultivate people with potential.
In fact, the best way is to poach people. He has taken a liking to some people in the team early on. However, he does not have the capital to poach people, so he can only hope that qualified newcomers will join.
Just when the atmosphere was getting darker, Xu Yunlong's phone rang.
It's Bi Qian.
Xu Yunlong hurriedly answered the phone. Just as he was about to say hello, Bi Yan's clear voice came over the phone: "Brother Long, I'm here."
Xu Yunlong immediately raised an OK gesture to the people around him.
Seeing Xu Yunlong's gesture, Xuan Wu, who rarely smiled, also slightly raised the corners of his mouth.
"However, I will only help for one year. I should just repay the original favor." Bi Yan said calmly, "If within one year, you find a suitable candidate to play the third position, I will leave immediately. I
It doesn’t require any salary, just food and housing.”
Xu Yunlong did not agree immediately. If Bi Yan only played for one year, they would still not be able to participate in TI4 next year. Once he participated in TI, his goal was only victory. So he did not want to use an imperfect lineup.
But if Bi Zhan doesn't come, it will be difficult for them to participate in ordinary competitions...
"Let me think about it..." Xu Yunlong's voice became obviously dull.
"Well, just tell me when you've thought about it." While he was talking, Bi Yan heard a voice from the other end of the phone. Bi Yan said he would contact her again and hung up the phone.
"How is it?" Everyone stared at Xu Yunlong, waiting for his answer.
"You can come, but he will only help for one year." Xu Yunlong said truthfully, "That means he will never participate in TI4."
"Help for a year? He's joking." Wang Shuang looked unconvinced, "When the results are achieved, once he has fans, he can't help but leave right away, right?"
"Bi Yan is a man who speaks the truth." Xuanwu knew him very well.
"Well, he said that after one year of fighting, he will never fight for one more day." Xiao Qingyue also looked a little sad.
"You can recruit new players while playing the game." Zhu Quehuang provided advice.
Xu Yunlong remained silent, but his mind was filled with plans for how to proceed.
If Bi Qian is recruited, then to a certain extent, the risk is greater than recruiting a high-scoring player on the ladder. If they can't find the right person within this year, then their journey can only be postponed to TI5, another year.
, there are too many variables. But if he doesn't recruit Bi Yan, oath's points will definitely not be able to increase at this stage. After all, he knows Bi Yan's level very well. He has a stable performance, can withstand pressure, and has a large hero pool.
The third position that is proficient in 30 heroes is very rare. At least in various early games, it can help some, and the new oath team ranking will be improved, and it will be eligible to participate in the TI4 ticket competition.
"However, after four years of not playing professionally, will he be okay?" Wang Shuang asked what he was most worried about.
"Okay." Xuanwu answered for Xu Yunlong.
"That's fine." Xu Yunlong replied following Xuan Wu's answer.
Wang Shuang felt for a moment that this team was indeed united to a certain extent.
"Then, let's settle it first. What should we do about Ye Qiu?" Wang Shuang wrote down Bi Zhen's name in his notebook. After all, new members have new expenses. If the accounts are not kept well, the team will not be able to operate.
"Like Bi Zhen, he won't stay long." Xu Yunlong exhaled smoke and looked at the ceiling, his voice a little dull, "That kid has talent, courage, and skills. He will not be willing to be an ordinary person here.
team members.”
"Treat us as a springboard?" Wang Shuang was stunned for a moment, and immediately felt unhappy.
"There's nothing wrong with it." However, Xu Yunlong suddenly changed his attitude, put out his cigarette butts, and called Ye Qiu, telling him that he could come over at any time and that all the procedures would be taken care of.
"Eh? Why?" Wang Shuang felt that he could no longer keep up with Xu Yunlong's thoughts.
"For us, he is also a necessary combat force at this stage." Xiao Qingyue quickly understood what Xu Yunlong meant, "He will also be a necessary combat force in the future."
So, on a cool May night, the roster of players for the new oath team was officially decided.
