After Zhang Xiaofeng won, he stood in the middle of the training ground for a long time.
The staff who repaired the training ground had already arrived, but no one waited until the chief instructor on the radio announced the result of the game.
The referee standing in the field raised his head and glanced at the huge electronic screen mounted high in the sky.
The ten star cards of both sides were originally displayed there, but now they are completely blank.
Obviously, the electronic screen had been turned off at some point, as if telling everyone, "I'm off work first."
The referee shook his head.
He knew that the wayward chief instructor who was sitting at the radio station must have run away after get off work.
After so many knockout rounds, he was used to it.
Therefore, he could only announce the result of the game instead of the bad guy at the broadcast station.
The referee said loudly: "Zhang Xiaofeng wins."
At this time, both Liu Liu and Zhang Xiaofeng had completed their treatment. They both stood up, bowed to each other in the center of the venue, and then left.
In the audience, the first-year students who came to watch were a little confused about the situation, and looked at the people around them with confused faces as they stood up and left.
Senior students and members of organizations who come to recruit talents are already familiar with this scene.
The Xinghai Knockout Tournament itself is indeed quite exciting, but the chief instructor at the broadcast station always fails.
"Did the commentator at the radio station get off work immediately?" Lu Li was a bit dumbfounded. This was the first time he had seen such an unprofessional commentator. "Who is he? He left before the result of the game was announced... ..Will your wages be deducted for this kind of behavior?”
Even if the importance of this knockout round is not that high, it won't be so bad that it will leave early and run away, right?
The teacher's demeanor on the radio reminded him of the staff member he met at the Yincheng Star Card Association, which gave him a feeling that the backstage was very hard.
"He?" Geng Xiaowen just finished memorizing the strengths and weaknesses of the last two contestants. He put away his pen and looked at Lu Li, slowly introducing, "He is Teacher Xia. Dean Zhang specially invited him to be the chief instructor of the training team. When I don’t have a training team, I don’t even have to attend classes, and I get paid vacation every day.”
"Huo? Is there such a good thing?" Lu Li's eyes widened slightly, showing a hint of surprise, "It seems that he has some background. I thought he was just a bad connection."
"Brother Lu, haven't you heard of the name Xia Youran?" the little fat man said without raising his head.
He roughly scanned the contents of the notebook and then put it into the storage card.
"This name... seems a bit familiar." Lu Li frowned and thought.
"That's Xia Swordsman, the champion of the Star Card Competition between schools ten years ago!" Geng Xiaowen quickly reminded him. He thought for a while and then added, "And the top four in the Star Card Competition for four consecutive years. .....”
The little fat man counted Xia Youran's various titles with his fingers.
In fact, Lu Li had already thought of it when he mentioned "dirty guests".
This Teacher Xia was considered a leading character back then.
It's just that "coquettish" is a bit of a derogatory term.
I remember back then, Xia Youran galloped across the field with one sword and dominated the school competition. At the same time, at the age of 30, he reached the semi-finals of the Star Card Competition for four consecutive years.
You must know that the age limit for participating in the Star Card Competition is 35 years old. In other words, all Star Card Masters under the age of 35 in the entire Eastern Federation are your competitors.
In contrast, the intensity of competition in school competitions is much lower.
But...it can be seen from his not-so-resounding nickname that although Xia Youran has a brilliant record,...his winning posture is a bit unsightly.
They say there are only wrong names, not wrong nicknames.
Xia Youran can have such an elegant and elegant name, and at the same time be called "a lowly guest" with a completely opposite style of nickname, she is somewhat capable.
First of all, his favorite weapon on the field is the long sword, which is also the origin of his first nickname "Xia Swordsman".
When it comes to weapons like "swords", the words that pop up in everyone's mind are "righteous", "honest", etc., but Xia Youran, a geek, has the completely opposite feeling.
In his games, from the deck configuration to the on-the-spot use of star cards, it always gives people a "dirty" feeling. Almost all highlights make people say "so dirty".
In the words of a high EQ, his approach is to do whatever it takes to win. In the words of a low EQ, his approach is unscrupulous and cunning.
There is another very interesting point.
According to unofficial statistics from the Star Card Competition, Xia Youran has the highest number of boos in all previous competitions, and is also the player who has been reported the most.
However, Teacher Xia was dirty when playing games, but he never really violated the rules of the Star Card Competition. He was a man who understood the rules of the game and danced wildly at the bottom line.
As a result, his nickname changed from Xia Swordsman to "Despicable Guest".
"Haha..." Lu Li laughed dryly and said, "It turns out that he is a lowly guest. He left early and so on. I think it made sense at once."
"My brother was taught by Teacher Xia, and he was full of praise for the chief instructor." The little fat man said with a smile, "He said that the knowledge he learned in the source of light is also very useful now."
Geng Xiaowen's brother Geng Wu is currently working in the Star Power Source Exploration Team. It is common for him to go to the source for several weeks in a row.
Even members of the exploration team gave such praise, which shows that Xia Youran does have two skills.
"I see." Lu Li nodded, stood up, and prepared to leave, "Dean Zhang is also quite courageous. I always feel that if I use Teacher Xia, I will suffer a lot of criticism."
Obviously, Xia Youran is a very controversial figure. Appointing him as the chief instructor will always give people the feeling that "Xinghai players are all lowly people."
"Indeed." Geng Xiaowen shrugged, not commenting on this, "But it doesn't matter if you can win. It's not a violation to play a little ugly."
For the little fat man, the commercial rivalry between major businesses is much dirtier than this "meanness".
"Brother Lu, I'm going to talk to the graduates later. You should go back to the dormitory first." Geng Xiaowen still sat where he was.
He closed his eyes and sorted through the student information he had previously recorded. He already had a preliminary plan in mind to win over those who had not been selected for the training team after the elimination round.
"Okay." Lu Li nodded, "Then I'll go back first."
Lin Miaohan and Qiu Mingxue were dragged to a dinner party by their teammates. Lu Li had no plans after the knockout round and planned to take the shuttle bus directly back to his old campus.
