Chapter 02: National Team


Yu Mingxiang was a female beta with long hair and a kind and gentle smile. The first impression she gave off was that she was a little sister who was very good to get along with.

However, this gentleness was just her appearance. She was actually very powerful and was clever and eloquent. It could be said that when ACE started as a grassroots team, it was with her help that they got the sponsorship of many wealthy backers.

Jiang Shaoyu called her Sister Yu and always regarded her as a sister.

However, in the past, he retired in a hurry and didn’t have time to say goodbye. After arriving in California, his WeChat, Q account and phone number were all replaced with new ones and he completely cut off contact with his past friends.

Where did Yu Mingxiang find his new number abroad?

Jiang Shaoyu didn’t investigate deeply and calmly typed a reply: [I don’t know about Xiao Pei’s situation. As his master, I taught him everything I could teach him. He is an adult and his actions are his own business. I don’t have the right to interfere.]

Yu Mingxiang sent a sad emoji: [Then you don’t care about Lao Lin retiring?]

Jiang Shaoyu: [E-sports players always have to retire. At his age, it is almost time to rest.]

[What about Xiao Chen? Previously, the two of you had such a good relationship and you regarded him as a younger brother. He was hidden by the coach and sat on the cold bench for a whole year. Don’t you think it is a pity? There is also Ye Zi, who was suspended for half a year.]

These familiar names made Jiang Shaoyu feel a bit confused for a while.

He thought of the scene where he suddenly left the team and several people cried together and his heart seemed tightly gripped by a pair of hands. Intense pain came from his chest.

Lao Lin, Ye Zi, Xiao Chen, Xiao Zhou…

There was also his apprentice Pei Feng, whom he taught with his own hands.

He always felt guilty toward these people.

He formed the ACE team and all the team members were personally recruited by him.

In the S3 season, they started from a poor grassroots team that didn’t even have a coach. Jiang Shaoyu was the captain and the coach. Yu Mingxiang converted a spare apartment into a training room and put a few computers in it. The teenagers practiced in such a difficult environment and went to the next bedroom to sleep every day when they were tired.

The bedrooms had bunk beds and were simply furnished. There was only one bathroom in the entire apartment and there was a queue to wash their face and go to the toilet.

It was a tough time but it was also a happy time.

The group of teenagers started from the National City League all the way to the B-grade League. They won the B-grade League championship and then won the top A-grade Professional League.

Yu Mingxiang struggled to gain the sponsorship of a financial backer and they finally gained their own base.

He still remembered the excited and bright smiles on everyone’s faces the day they moved into the spacious and bright training room.

Lao Lin was choked up. “We’re not a third-rate miscellaneous group any longer! We have our own base. There will be no need to sleep on bunk beds in the future and everyone will have a separate bedroom. The conditions are really good!”

Ye Zi said with a smile, “This is just the beginning. Our goal is to be the champion this year. The moment we win the championship, we will be players of the championship team and our treatment will become better and better in the future.”
