[Chapter 163, Birthday]

According to the training arrangements made by Chen Qianlin, Xie Mingzhe should have fought with his teammates alone in the afternoon, but it was Tang Muzhou's birthday and he took half a day off with his master.

Tang Muzhou took Xie Mingzhe to his place for the reason of "discussing something with his brother". After giving him the gift, Xie Mingzhe asked: "Brother, what are you going to discuss with me? ”

Tang Muzhou can hardly say that this is just an excuse to lie to Master, I actually took you home to be alone with you.

To Xie Mingzhe's confused gaze, Tang Muzhou smiled and looked for a topic: “I want to know how your club is doing? Can I help you? ”

“Master has just recently paired up with the team of cards, a few of us are practicing the operation of new cards, team warfare is a bit of a hassle, we need to practice more.” Xie Mingzhe asked curiously, "Brother, how did you practice team warfare? ”

“The ranking game has a team model, many of which are made up of folk masters. If you cooperate in the initial practice team battle, you can play team ranking.” Don Mu Zhongdong added, "In addition, we have a group of players built privately, except that the review of the group is strict. When you are officially registered as a professional player, I will pull you into the group and find other clubs to practice. ”

“In practice, no one will come forward with a battle line, right?” Xie Mingzhe asked.

“Well, the core cards will be replaced with lots of cards, so as not to expose the tactics ahead of time, and the exercise is just an exercise in consciousness.” Tang Mu Zhou Road, "did you pick your club's base? This is Master's house now. Is it too crowded? ”

“It is a bit crowded indeed, the dormitory is a double room, not to mention the restaurant at every meeting, not even a separate meeting room.” Xie Mingzhe sighed, "Brother Chen has been asking the agent to find the house, so far he has not found it. ”

“It is really hard to find a house with the right location and price on the Emperor's side...” Tang Muzhou silenced for a moment, suggesting, "I will also keep an eye out for you. I have a cousin who is interested in building a house and knows a lot of people, maybe he can help, I will let him ask and let you know if there is any news. ”

“Well, ask your brother a favor. ”

Looking for a convenient, reasonably priced place to be a club base in the bustling capital is a hassle indeed. Plus, Chen is usually busy doing cards and training, and the house search was entrusted to the intermediary company, but the intermediary didn't have much good news.

Xie Mingzhe said that the Tang family was quite powerful in the Emperor. Tang Muzhou was very smooth when he founded Fenghua. He must have advantages in terms of connections over himself. If he was willing to help, it would be better.

“Rest assured, I will help you find a way to do this. After all, I know more people than you and Chen Xiao.” Tang Muzhou looked at him and asked softly, "Do you have a psychological budget for the price? Is it renting or buying? ”

Xie Mingzhe thought about it. “Let's rent it first. It would be too expensive to buy it. ”

Didu's house price has also been checked by Xie Mingzhe, which is even worse than the northern part of the Earth's era. They need to build a club base, not only a dormitory for everyone, but also a separate conference room, training room, covering at least 500 square meters. A house of this size, which is estimated to cost hundreds of millions of crystal coins at once, is not economically acceptable.

It may be cheaper in remote suburbs, but then Qin Xuan, Yike Ke and Xie Mingzhe will have trouble going to school in the future.

Xie Mingzhe and Chen Xiao have previously discussed that it is best to rent a team base in the city, close to the school, and it will be more convenient to go to school or play games in the future. Unfortunately, it's really hard to find a house this big in the city, and Chen Xiao is very sad about it.

Tang Muzhou thought about it and said, “If you rent, I suggest renting a office building. Many large clubs in the Alliance are renting several floors of office space, considering the future expansion of clubs. You're just getting started, not a lot of people, but the Nirvana Club will certainly grow better and better in the future, so get ready in advance. ”

Xie Mingzhe thought his brother's statement was very valid. Since they decided to run the Nirvana Club as a business, they should also have some vision. They could not rent a house too small to fit together. After a year, they moved again. Why not get in place once and renovate the base? The base is the doorway to a club and will attract more experts in the future if the environment is good.

Thinking about it, Xie Mingzhe said: “Otherwise, I will consult with Brother Chen now. ”

Tang Muzhou nodded: “Well, ask him if he would like to rent an office building. If so, I happen to know a friend who might be able to help. ”

Xie Mingzhe immediately sent a video call to Chen Xiao to convey the meaning of Tang Muzhou.

Tang Muzhou sat next to Xie Mingzhe and expressed his willingness to help.

Chen Xiao laughed: “Muzhou, you are so kind all of a sudden, I'm not used to it. ”

Tang Muzhou frowned: “Am I a bad person in your eyes? ”

Chen Xiao said profoundly: “I'm not just a good person. ”

Tang Muzhou: “…”

Xie Mingzhe knew that they had a good relationship in private. Chen was obviously joking, so he didn't take Chen Xiao's words seriously. Frankly, “Chen, we've been worried about the base. Isn't it good that you're willing to help? I think my brother's connections are much more reliable than the agency's, so why don't you let him help us find out. ”

Chen Xiao put away the joke and looked at Tang Muzhou. “Okay, then, please do this. If you really find the right office building, thank you later. ”

Tang Muzhou smiled: “No thanks. If it wasn't for Master, I wouldn't be a professional player. Since Master decided to come back, I should help you too. ”

Even if I don't like Xie Mingzhe, this favor, Tang Muzhou will help in the face of Master. However, the Nirvana Club has people it likes and will be more active in helping.

A stone in Xie Mingzhe's heart finally landed.

Although there is no definitive news yet, it is strange that Xie Mingzhe is convinced that Tang Muzhou will definitely do it well, presumably because this man has never let him down.

* * *

After discussing the base, Xie Mingzhe wanted to go back to the club, but Tang Muzhou stopped him. “Stay for dinner, we'll go to the game together after dinner. ”

Xie Mingzhe wondered, "There's a game tonight. Don't you have to train this afternoon?” He wanted to go back early because he was worried about interrupting his brother's training.

“No training on the day of the game. This is the rule of Fenghua, and Sister Xue is afraid that the players will be under too much pressure. On the tactical side, we've arranged it last week, and we all know how to fight it, so don't worry too much.” Tang Muzhou said with a smile, "I'm still confident in dealing with the verdict. ”

“What kind of tactics are you going to use?” Xie Mingzhe couldn't help but be curious. Recently, he was also studying command consciousness. He learned only a little fur and just talked to his brother.

“The ruling has always liked the style of face to face, playing front, no one can beat Ne, we can only slow down the control field, tonight's game is likely to turn into a bladder game.” Tang Mu Zhou Road.

In e-sports, the so-called "bladder station” is a slow rhythm match where players can't stand the bladder and want to go to the toilet. Xie Mingzhe has seen some LOL games before, exaggerating that some bladder stations can play for an hour.

Unexpectedly, Xie Mingzhe laughed and said, "I'm looking forward to that. The slower the game, the more details, I will definitely take a closer look tonight. ”

When Tang Muzhou saw him smile, he just felt his heart beat slightly like a hammer and his heart had to beat faster. Little brother's smile was sunny and handsome. The more he looked, the better he looked. I really wanted to press him on the wall to kiss him and not speak.

Xie Mingzhe discovered that his brother's eyes were deep and he kept looking at himself. He couldn't help but wonder: “Why? Did I say something wrong? ”

Tang Muzhou retracted his gaze and said: "No. I was wondering, just this afternoon, you can take a break for half a day, let's go to the supermarket to buy some ingredients, how about cooking at home? You also taste your brother's craftsmanship. ”

Xie Mingzhe glanced straight at him: “Can you cook again? ”

Tang Muzhou said: “My mother's cooking is particularly delicious. She said that if she finds a wife in the future, she can make a lot of extra points if she can cook. She has been forcing me to learn cooking from her since I was a child. I have also learned some home-cooked dishes. It's just that I'm usually too busy to cook. ”

Xie Mingzhe couldn't help but give Tang Muzhou's mother a thumbs up: “Your mother is very visionary and can really give points for cooking. Every girl I know especially likes a boyfriend who can cook. ”

Tang Muzhou thought, "Boys like boyfriends who can cook, right?"

The two came together to the supermarket inside the neighborhood. The neighborhood is a high-end residential area, and the accompanying supermarket serves only the owners of the neighborhood, although the ingredients are expensive and very fresh. Tang Muzhou pushed the shopping cart in front of him. Xie Mingzhe followed him. The two of them came to the vegetable area and Tang Muzhou came over and whispered, "Whatever you like, just pick it. I'll make all these dishes. ”

Men's voices slide across the eardrum, low and nice, like warm notes from the cello.

Xie Mingzhe didn't think there was anything wrong with the two men walking together in the supermarket. He happily picked out many dishes he liked. These were not often done by Ji Qingping. Tang Muzhou watched him actively pick food and his eyes were more gentle.

One day, I would be happy to really hang out with Xie Mingzhe, hang out at the supermarket every day, cook at home, and see the expression he was satisfied with when he ate. Thin water seemed like a pretty good day.

Even though he was young, Tang Muzhou felt that his attitude was a bit like that of a retired old man.

He hastily stopped his fantasy and took Xie Mingzhe to pick up some meat products.

Xie Mingzhe also insisted on going to a nearby dessert store to buy a small cake, although Tang Muzhou did not like dessert, but Xie Mingzhe offered to buy him a birthday cake, of course he would not refuse.

When he returned home, Tang Muzhou held up his sleeve and cooked. Xie Mingzhe helped wash the dishes and other dishes beside him. He looked back occasionally, and his brother's eyes were always filled with laughter.

He looks in a good mood today, probably because of his birthday.

This man is so handsome in his apron to cook at home, he can take a kitchen commercial. If his fans saw him like this, would they line up to ask to marry Tang Shen? Tang Muzhou has a high face, a good temper, thoughtful and gentle personality. His future wife will definitely be very happy...

Thinking about it, Xie Mingzhe suddenly developed a strong feeling of resistance. Xie Mingzhe felt uncomfortable when she thought of a girl standing next to Tang Muzhou all day. He frowned and quickly ignored this strange imagination, pretending to carelessly ask, "Brother, do you have a girlfriend? ”

Tang Muzhou looked back at him and said, "I've never been in love, have you? ”

Xie Mingzhe touched his nose with embarrassment: “Neither did I. ”

Tang Muzhou's lips slightly hooked up, “No rush, you're still young, let's focus on your career. In order to give each other more secure living conditions, men can start their own businesses and start a family. ”

Xie Mingzhe nodded: “I think so too. ”

When the two smiled at each other, Xie Mingzhe suddenly felt his heart beat a little faster and immediately turned away in vain. Fortunately, Tang Muzhou didn't ask much. Put the steamed fish out of the pan in the restaurant and start stir-frying.

He was very skilled at his moves and made a full dinner in the blink of an eye. After the table was full, Tang Muzhou asked Xie Mingzhe to sit down first. He turned to take a bottle of the treasured wine from the wine cabinet, poured two glasses and handed it to Xie Mingzhe.

Xie Mingzhe asked: "You have a game at night. Is it okay to drink? ”

Tang Muzhou raised his high foot cup and said, "Drink a little wine. It's all right. It won't affect the speed of the reaction. It's my 24th birthday and I'm glad you could spend some time with me and have some wine to celebrate. ”

When Xie Mingzhe heard him say that, he relaxed and touched him with his glass.

This was the first time Xie Mingzhe went to someone else's house to celebrate each other's birthday.

The food on the table, the warm lights on the top of his head, the red wine in the cup and the gentle smile of the handsome man in front of him all made him a bit of a trance, the atmosphere was always too vague, like...

It's like a couple celebrating their birthday together.

The idea frightened him, his cheeks couldn't help but slightly burn - he really deserved to die, Tang Muzhou was so kind to help him, he was still thinking. How dare you beat my brother's mind?

Xie Mingzhe rubbed his temple to calm himself down and focus on the food.

To be honest, Tang Muzhou's cooking skills are really good, every dish is especially delicious, Xie Mingzhe ate greatly satisfied, his eyes were happily squeezed, making Tang Muzhou can't help but think of cats who spread their bellies after eating and drinking.

Tang Muzhou looked gently at him and said, “How's the taste? ”

Xie Mingzhe gave a thumbs up: "The level of a professional chef is delicious! ”

Tang Muzhou smiled: “Just like it. If you have time in the future, you can come to my place often to rub dinner. ”

Xie Mingzhe said: "If you say so, then I won't be polite! ”

Tang Muzhou thought, you really don't have to be polite, don't say it's a meal, you better stay and be the other master here.

* * *

After eating, Tang Muzhou brought Xie Mingzhe to the competition venue. He put Xie Mingzhe outside the conference hall and walked down the athlete's aisle. Before he separated, Xie Mingzhe said seriously: “Come on, I'm sure you can win! ”

The last time he lost at 0: 2 to Ghost Prison, Tang Muzhou was ridiculed by the black powders for several days. Xie Mingzhe was quite angry and hoped that his brother could prove himself.

Today's game is a festive one, ruling against the two giants, and it is natural not to mention the on-site seating rate. Chen Qianlin had been waiting in the bakery for a long time. After Xie Mingzhe walked into the VIP bakery, Chen Xiao immediately came and asked: “Have you been at Tang Muzhou's house all afternoon? ”

Xie Mingzhe nodded: “Well, I came over for dinner. ”

Chen Xiaoxiao smiled and spoke no more. He turned his head to the live screen.

At the beginning of the competition, the female commentator said: "Today is actually a special day, our 24th birthday in Tang Shen! ”

"Happy Birthday to Tang Shen first," the man said. The League has a saying called birthday halo. It is said that birthday athletes are easier to win. This year's 10th season game hit the athlete's birthday for the first time. I wonder if Tang God will have a birthday halo today? ”

“Unfortunately, today's opponent is judging, and his strength is very strong, and the birthday halo doesn't necessarily work," the woman said. ”

At 7: 30, the players appeared punctually, Tang Muzhou changed his uniform and smiled.

"Looks like Tang Shen is in a good mood for his birthday today," he said. ”

This radiant look is truly in a great mood.

Fans also feel that Tang Mu Zhou is different today. Usually he likes to keep smiling, but it's just a superficial style, but today's smile penetrates the eye, and he's always smiling when talking to his teammates...

How happy is he?!

Happy Tang Mu Zhou, playing games is not vague at all, the conductor is very calm.

Fenghua used vine control field tactics today, and the ruling remains a positive offense.

Indeed, as Tang Muzhou said, today's game turned into a "bladder game”, and both rounds took half an hour to separate the results.

In a critical offense, Tang Muzhou secondarily blocked the firepower of the ruling and responded with a clever hallucination control field, taking the game without risk, and a beautiful 2: 0 win!

Can beat the ruling to 2: 0, before questioning Tang Muzhou's black powder finally shut up.

Xie Mingzhe watched the two games carefully, and the division commanded really well today, almost without any loopholes, perfect control teaching.

However, this does not prove that Nie is weaker than his brother.

In the current tournament, the scores of several large clubs are interesting, Fenghua 2: 0 ruling, 2: 0 Ghost Prison, and 2: 0 Ghost Prison, forming a strange cycle of restraint, because in the early days of the regular tournament, the club lineup was just trying water, and the scores floated, which is normal. It's only in the final season that everyone will make the best effort. Fenghua can take the number of places this season, which is still an unknown number.

Nirvana's future battle together is also an unknown number, but Xie Mingzhe will learn to command step by step, on the ground.

It's time to gather your teammates for a training match.

* * * * * *

[Chapter 164, Master Match Enrollment Opened]

The next day coincided with Sunday. As Ke and Qin Xuan were both on holiday, Chen Qianlin assembled everyone to play the arena team ranking.

Star Card Storm rankings are divided into individual groups, double groups, and team groups. Each mode earns different points, and winning a team match naturally has the highest points and the fastest upgrade, provided it works well.

Although you can score on a single score all the way to the master level, not everyone likes to fight alone, and there are a lot of people in the group ranking. Especially some of the small partners you know in real life, such as college classmates, company colleagues, etc., they prefer to form a team of 4 people to play in the group, so that they can also take care of each other.

A skilled person with a few average levels of friends is also a common team. Of course, if a person wants to rank as a team, they can also go into "single row”, “double row” and other modes so that the system can find you a teammate.

Xie Mingzhe put together a fixed team of four to go to the rankings. Since all four were in the "Star Card Master” position, the system matched them with all the players in the Master position, and they were also fixed teams.

The team strength encountered in the first round was very strong.

This was Xie Mingzhe's first time as a conductor. He was a little nervous. The card team used a good A-plan with the master, but he didn't really have much confidence in the ability to adapt in the field.

The fixed team across the street should be a family and friends group in the game, and the cards are all unified animal cards. On the face of the card, Nirvana's card is slightly stronger than his opponent's, but in action he finds... the cooperation of the four is completely out of sync!

For example, Qin Xuan's control skills haven't been released yet, so Qi Ke rushed up. Xie Mingzhe prepared the output card opposite the fire, but Chen Xiao tried to kill the treatment card first. With so many cards, the situation was chaotic, Xie Mingzhe's eyes were about to look at the flowers.

One of the funniest things was that Ke wanted to put Nie Xiaoqian's blood medal across the street to kill him. As a result, Qin Xuan's treatment card just moved forward to prepare to add blood to his teammates. Nie Xiaoqian threw out her hair and instantly dragged Qin Xuan's plant card to the face of black uncertainty.

Qin Xuan: “…"

Yike Ke: “………"

The two were as depressed as tripping on their left foot while walking, spitting in each other's hearts: what a pig teammate!

Xie Mingzhe couldn't help but laugh. The first group battle between the four men, he lost completely without temper.

After the game, everyone looked at each other in opposition and Chen Xiao touched his nose and coughed: “Cough, I think everyone still lacks tacit agreement. ”

Chen Qianlin calmly said: “You do not lack acquiescence, but there is no acquiescence at all. ”

Everyone: “…”

Coach said that too hard.

But it is true that the four of them have never fought in a team battle. They have no idea how the teammates are going to leave, nor do they know how the teammates are going to play. Oolong situations often occur where the skills are not connected and the positions are interrupted by each other.

The family and friends in the game have been working together for a long time, and they can't fight normally.

Chen Qianlin said: "The card group is just the foundation, especially in the team battle. If you don't cooperate well, you can't even play half the power of this set of cards. Now that we're just getting started, don't be discouraged. Let's talk about it in the first half of the ranking exercise. ”

Everyone had to practice stuffing.

Some folk players met in the ranking competition they couldn't fight, Xie Mingzhe didn't have the face to go to war with Fenghua team 2 people, he decided to practice cooperation, cultivate a sense of command, wait for the four of them to be close to each other, then go find your brother.

Otherwise, the teammates leave unreasonably, blocking each other's skills such as Oolong, if the people of Fenghua saw it, wouldn't they laugh to death?

* * *

Time passes so fast that it turns to mid-December.

The four train together every day, and the acquiescence is gradually cultivated in the oolong. Nirvana's four-man platoon team, from first losing streak to later winning by more than 50%, is steadily increasing.

Because Ke and Qin Xuan wanted to take the final exam, Chen Qianlin suspended the training speed, allowing the two of them to study carefully first.

Xie Mingzhe and Chen Xiaolin focused on learning the command skills from Chen Qianlin. Every game video in the professional league, they would save for slow lens playback. Each detail was analyzed repeatedly. Gradually, both people had some idea of the actual command.

In mid-December, the tenth season was drawing to a close, and the regular season was at its most white-hot stage.

Even more exciting is the fact that the official website of the Professional Alliance has finally released an important announcement - the 11th National Star Card Master Invitation will officially be launched on December 15 and will run through December 31, leaving all players in the Star Card Master slot free to sign up.

The Star Card Master Invitational, the only way to enter the Star Card Pro League, easily enrolls millions of players each year, but few eventually qualify for professional athlete registration, and the competition is unimaginable.

Xie Mingzhe and the four of them must cross the Ogi Bridge in the thousands of army horses to qualify for registration. Otherwise, they will not be able to participate in next year's league and the pressure will not be great.

Even the nervous metaphor Ke always feels nervous.

On the night of the announcement, Chen Qianlin summoned everyone to explain the game system in detail: “The master race is divided into three stages: preliminary, re-enactment and final. The preliminary round is a random match. Each player is promoted to 10 rounds, with a winning rate of more than 60%, below 60%, and directly eliminated until the top 100 players are decided. I don't think you will have any problems at this stage. ”

60% chance of winning, you can still do it easily.

“The key is the rematch, the Top 100, is a very brutal elimination system, players can choose the first and second half according to the winning percentage of the preliminary stage, the two halves catch each other and kill each other, resulting in 32 strong players entering the final round, this stage may be directly eliminated if something goes wrong.” Chen Qianlin looked at everyone, calmly, “There are only four players in our club, no one can hit the top 32, which means that this player will not be eligible to register for the league, we can only give up next year's league. ”

Everyone: “…”

Who would be willing to give up after all this time?

But who can guarantee that there will be no problems with the Grandmaster Race?

Xie Mingzhe had no heart. Master said "Top 100" is a 100 to 32 knockout, and the competition is quite fierce. The four of them can choose the same half zone to avoid collision with each other, but the other half zone must also have masters, so if you lose the game at once, you can give up.

Four people were silent at the same time, not knowing what to say.

“I have faith in the four of you, and you have more faith in yourselves.” Chen Qianlington glanced at four people in turn and said in a very cold voice, "We Nirvana are headed for next year's 11th season trophy. If you can't even beat the Master's invitation, you can ID yourself and unload the game. ”

“…” Everyone looked at each other in opposition. Coach, that's a pretty poisonous thing to say, but it's bloody. In the future, they will be faced with such first-rate players as Tang Muzhou and Nie Yuandao. If they can't even fight the Master Games, why not unload the game and go home to school.

“Cough, everybody, come on, we can do this.” Coach is a little fierce, Chen Xiao smiled at the round field, “sign up first. ”

“Tonight, all four of you will sign up on the official website.” Chen Qianlin calmly said, "The master tournament is an online tournament, you don't need to show your face in the first period, and your ID can be picked up freely. Only in the final round will you be able to publicly identify yourself as a player. You can use whatever name you want, because when you reach the professional league, everyone must use their real name. ”

“Then I'll continue with Ke Xiao Ke!” I scratched my head and said, "Without this ID, I will never use it again.” After all, he didn't want to cause trouble for the club by convicting him of a crime.

“I still use the name Fat Uncle.” Xie Mingzhe smiled, “Anyway, the cards I made were especially obvious, even if I didn't use Uncle Fat's ID, everyone knew it was me. ”

Qin Xuan used the name “Q-X”, and Chen Xuao was the ID “on the cloud roller”. The four of them signed up on the official website, and watched the registration interface suddenly rush to 100,000 data, all of them were a little alarmed.

That's a lot of people. In less than half a day, the enrollment channel is open, the number of people will exceed 100,000, half a month of enrollment time, maybe the final contestant will exceed one million!

But no more opponents will stop Nirvana from moving forward.

They will definitely pass the Star Card Master Invitation Competition and be eligible to register for the Professional Alliance.

As the coach said, they went for the Pro League trophy, how can they die halfway?!

Four people have never fought in a group battle, they do not cooperate well, going directly will definitely be abused, it takes a gradual process. Pippitzer is learning to direct, don't worry.

Start by writing two chapters of the Masters tournament and let four people become full professional athletes.

Uncle Fatty, who is neither fat nor uncle, is about to show his face. The time for Pippicher to lose his vest is almost here:)
