Zhang Jiale paused slightly, then understood what was going on.

Knights wore plate armor, and their jumping ability was affected by their encumbrance, so they couldn't compare to the jumping ability of a leather-armored Ranger. What's more, Zhang Jiale's Dazzling Hundred Blossoms had intentionally selected equipment to increase jumping power. Jumping from the water onto the horizontal log was easy with Dazzling Hundred Blossoms, but with Unrivaled Super Handsome, the Knight, a normal jump wouldn't be possible. So, he had used a Heroic Leap to jump out of the water and land on the log.

Although Zhang Jiale understood in an instant, the attack had already been launched. However, the impact of the Ranger's attack was not enough to knock back a Knight landing with Heroic Leap. Unrivaled Super Handsome held his shield in front of him for protection and still accurately landed on the log. Zhang Jiale didn't want his Dazzling Hundred Blossoms to be knocked into the water, so he jumped away the moment Heroic Leap landed, pulled out his gun, fired another burst of bullets, and used Flying Shot to get himself to the shore.

"Not bad, not bad." Ye Xiu praised like he was complimenting a little brother, and Unrivaled Super Handsome also walked along the log to the river bank.

Zhang Jiale remained on full alert, the muzzle of Dazzling Hundred Blossoms never leaving Unrivaled Super Handsome's upper, middle, and lower body.

"Alright, alright, put the gun away, it's over," Ye Xiu said.

"What are you doing, messing around!" Zhang Jiale was a little annoyed.

"Testing your skills," Ye Xiu said.

"..."

"You should have died," Zhang Jiale said speechlessly, "If it wasn't for that Priest."

"Hehe, that Holy Heal was brilliant, right?" Ye Xiu said.

"If it was just a coincidence, then forget it; if it was intentional, then his series of performances were indeed brilliant. Who is that person?" Zhang Jiale asked.

"A player from Tyrannical Ambition," Ye Xiu said.

"A player? Just a player? An ordinary player?" Zhang Jiale couldn't believe it. Using the light and shadow effects to cover his actions, and using that Holy Heal at the most critical moment, the observation and judgment demonstrated by this series of actions were almost at a professional level. How could such a person just be an ordinary player?

"Isn't he?" Ye Xiu said.

"This is a talent!" Zhang Jiale said.

"Agreed," Ye Xiu said.

"Wait..." Zhang Jiale suddenly seemed to understand something, "You got a broken Knight account and mixed in with Tyrannical Ambition, could it be that you were trying to find such a Priest?"

"There's no way around it, you great gods have eyes that are too high and lack foresight. I can only discover talent from the masses. To find a Priest, wouldn't you start with Tyrannical Ambition?" Ye Xiu said.

Zhang Jiale agreed, just like the Guild Excellent Dynasty had more Battle Mages, and Hundred Blossoms Valley had more Rangers, all because of the influence of these great god-level professional players. Because of the profession, fans would worship the corresponding great gods, and because of worshipping the great gods, and liking the corresponding team, they would try their best to join their favorite team's guild in the game.

As for Tyrannical Ambition, their team Tyranny had two great god-level players, Han Wenqing and Zhang Xinjie. So, in their guild, the proportion of Grapplers and Priests would be relatively higher, and there would naturally be more skilled players. If you wanted to find a powerful Priest, starting with Tyrannical Ambition would naturally make sense.

"So, you got a Knight because the Knight is an MT class, and no role in the team knows the Priest's methods better than the MT. You used this method to finally find this Priest?" Zhang Jiale said.

"Yes, that's how it is," Ye Xiu said.

"How long did it take?" Zhang Jiale asked.

"More than two weeks, I guess!" Ye Xiu said.

"That's not bad, your luck is pretty good," Zhang Jiale said.

"Hahaha, you're actually discussing luck with people?" Ye Xiu said.

Zhang Jiale was immediately depressed. As the most bitter great god-level player in the professional circle, luck was indeed his super weakness.

"Where is he?" Zhang Jiale changed the subject, he was also curious about this Priest expert.

Unrivaled Super Handsome's view turned to the turbulent river. After a long while, Ye Xiu said, "Probably drowned."

"Cough, what?" Zhang Jiale didn't fall into the river, but he was choked by the statement. "Drowned?" He couldn't believe it. With the observation and judgment shown by that Priest, Zhang Jiale felt that the two of them should have chosen to come ashore on this log. How could he have drowned?

"I'm saying, if he was really outstanding in all aspects and had no shortcomings, would it be my turn to discover him? He would have been dug up long ago," Ye Xiu said.

"Then what shortcomings does this expert have that concealed such excellent talent?" Zhang Jiale said.

"From my initial observation, his level of judgment and mastery of timing is very high, but his operation is relatively average, and his reaction is also relatively slow when facing complex situations," Ye Xiu said.

Zhang Jiale thought for a while, and based on what he knew, he also agreed, "Such shortcomings wouldn't affect his previous performance, but in a team, it's enough to cover up his advantages. But are you really sure his performance wasn't a fluke?"

"I'm sure, especially after experiencing that battle just now," Ye Xiu said.

"You're not using me as a guinea pig, are you?" Zhang Jiale said.

"What are you talking about?" Ye Xiu said, "I'm using you to test how good he really is."

"..."

"What about you? You've been helping Hundred Blossoms Valley to grab Bosses recently. What are you doing, trying to repent?" Ye Xiu joked.

"Yeah." Unexpectedly, Zhang Jiale seriously agreed.

"You..."

"I owe them," Zhang Jiale's tone was tinged with sadness.

Ye Xiu was stunned when he heard him say that, "You're not planning to return to Team Hundred Blossoms?"

Zhang Jiale didn't answer. But not answering basically represented the answer. If he was planning to go back, there was nothing to be embarrassed about. Because he wasn't planning to go back, the inner struggle made it difficult for him to say the answer.

The former captain and ace player of Team Hundred Blossoms, had already attracted a lot of scolding for irresponsibly retiring before. Now that he was returning, and with everyone in Hundred Blossoms eagerly anticipating his return, he wasn't choosing his former main team. Ye Xiu could foresee the kind of criticism Zhang Jiale would face.

But he would rather bear this pressure and make this choice. Where was he going?

Ye Xiu estimated that the answer wouldn't be simple. From what he had seen of Zhang Jiale's guilt towards Hundred Blossoms, he wasn't returning to Team Hundred Blossoms because he was embarrassed about his sudden retirement. He was preparing to abandon Team Hundred Blossoms once again after having let them down once.

What was it for?

Of course, it was the championship that he had been pursuing for many years but couldn't obtain. This time, for this championship, Zhang Jiale was willing to bet everything. One could imagine how much he was looking forward to this time. Because even if he won this championship, it might be full of controversy. His two actions of abandoning Team Hundred Blossoms might not be able to be covered up even by the glory of winning the championship.

Could his recent exchanges with him have made him make such a determination?

Ye Xiu didn't think so. Because as far as he was concerned, he could give Zhang Jiale a touch of nostalgia for the glorious years of the past, making him feel unwilling and reluctant. As a guy who needed to start all over again, Ye Xiu couldn't give Zhang Jiale any expectations, and he couldn't come up with a reason that would make him disregard everything. Ye Xiu almost only said the idea of Zhang Jiale following him in a half-joking way. Zhang Jiale was different from Wei Chen after all. If he wanted to come back, even Ye Xiu felt that returning to Team Hundred Blossoms wouldn't need an explanation.

But now, Zhang Jiale was obviously making a bold decision. Ye Xiu didn't presume that Zhang Jiale was going to cooperate with him. The reason was still the same as before, his newly formed team was not weighty enough to make Zhang Jiale make such a sacrifice. The only thing that could make Zhang Jiale make such a decision, Ye Xiu believed, was the championship.

Of course, it wasn't like joining any team, and the league would directly give him a championship. But this team let Zhang Jiale see the unlimited possibilities of winning the championship. This team could definitely not be like Ye Xiu, who still needed to run to the online game guild to pick out talents who hadn't been noticed. This team was definitely one that made people feel at a glance: there's no way around it, the championship is his.

Which one would it be?

Tiny Herb? Blue Rain? Tyranny?

Or Samsara? Misty Rain? Void?

Or even Excellent Era today?

If any of these teams suddenly had a top god like Zhang Jiale join, it would make people feel exceptionally powerful. So, Ye Xiu couldn't guess which one it would be for a while. Zhang Jiale obviously wouldn't say. When a character of his level joined, it would usually involve a series of transfer storms. Just letting Ye Xiu realize that he would return, but not return to Hundred Blossoms, was already explosive gossip. Just revealing this would be enough for the media to chase and make noise until the end of the season.

"Good luck..." Ye Xiu sincerely wished. For a championship, Zhang Jiale had made such a decision. Although he still seemed a little embarrassed to face it now, Ye Xiu believed that he would overcome this mentality. Because this heart for the championship should never be underestimated. Not for showing off, but for glory, the highest glory in the minds of every professional player, the glory that Ye Xiu said was addictive.

"Must be lucky!" Zhang Jiale didn't return the blessing to Ye Xiu, but continued Ye Xiu's words and applied a blessing aura to himself again.

"Alright, let's continue to go back and grab Bosses!" Zhang Jiale cheered up.

"The people from Hundred Blossoms Valley are probably all dead now," Ye Xiu said. He now understood why Zhang Jiale had been frantically helping Hundred Blossoms Valley in battle recently. Perhaps it was to alleviate the guilt in his heart, or perhaps it was just to do something for Hundred Blossoms in the way he could. Ye Xiu didn't ask what the starting point was.

"It doesn't matter, you can immediately start over after dying. That's what makes online games more lovable than matches," Zhang Jiale said.

"Then I wish you success!" Ye Xiu said.

"What about you? Are you not coming anymore?"

"Me? My purpose has been achieved, so let's put the Boss aside for now!" Ye Xiu said.

"Oh... then I also need to wish you can get what you want, and hope that that guy can fully meet your requirements, and, can not despise your identity as a God Ye Qiu, hahaha." Zhang Jiale said, his Dazzling Hundred Blossoms had already turned and ran quickly towards the North Bridge.
