Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 276 Have fun
The emergence of professional players in Honor of Kings has relegated the original protagonists, the chosen ones, to supporting roles.

Lin Feng still receives considerable media attention due to his popularity and track record.

Yun Kai, with his innate talent for demonic transformation and the adoration he receives from people all over the country, has always been a media darling and has a high level of popularity. As for the others, they receive almost no attention.

Even unparalleled geniuses like Zhan Tianyu and Ye Qiu are no exception.

Right now, they are still newcomers and their strength is not yet strong. Although they are exceptionally talented, they have not yet fully matured.

There is a clear difference between a rising star and a star.

The team members from various universities were somewhat envious of this, but they didn't have any other feelings.

Entering the Glory Professional League is a future plan and goal for some people; some have already signed contracts before even graduating.

Before long, they will officially enter the Glory Professional League and become nationally renowned stars.

Because of tomorrow night's opening ceremony, professional players kept arriving, and eight of the top ten All-Star players arrived. Accompanied by the screams of fans and the frantic photography of various media outlets, the flashbulbs never stopped.

Professional players are used to this; some strike poses to show off, some look indifferent, and some chat with the people next to them without a care.

"Ye Xing, who do you think will win the National College Glory League this time?"

A slightly overweight, seasoned reporter approached Ye Xing and began interviewing him with a microphone in hand.

As the opening guest tomorrow, this kind of interview is customary. Ye Xing has been through it once before and has experience with it. He smiled slightly and said:

"This year's class has so many geniuses, it is recognized as the most dazzling class in history. I have high hopes for each and every one of them. As for who will win the championship, that is obviously an unknown answer."

This kind of agreeable, bland, and unoffensive answer clearly did not satisfy the reporter, who continued to ask:
"Rising stars from various universities, who do you think will succeed you? Or threaten your position?"

"Anyone could surpass me. Yun Kai, Zhan Tianyu, Ye Qiu, Lin Feng, there are just too many people. It's a constellation of stars. All the students participating have the potential to become all-star players."

At this point, Ye Xing smiled:
"There are just too many super talents. As for a threat, it's not really a threat. By the time they officially enter the professional league, we old folks should have already retired."

Ye Xing entered the professional league at the age of 22, and is now 27.

Once a person reaches the age of thirty and breaks through to the eighth-grade Grandmaster level in martial arts, they must automatically retire.

If it weren't for the Glory Battle a year later, he would have already broken through to the eighth rank and retired early.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will choose to retire after participating in this globally renowned battle for glory.

Even if Lin Feng and others are exceptionally talented, they will never cross paths with him.

As an All-Star player, Ye Xing's career in Glory is very comfortable. He has nothing to worry about, no shortage of resources, and the club has a perfect plan for his professional and demon spirit growth.

But the league is, after all, just one part of his journey.

He has more responsibilities.

Sealing off a gate was actually one of his goals.

Therefore, he felt a mixture of admiration and envy towards Lin Feng and his group of seven, especially Lin Feng.

Perhaps knowing that nothing would be gotten from the easygoing Ye Xing, the reporter pointed the microphone at Xie Yixiao, who was standing next to Ye Xing, and asked:

"Xie Yixiao, do you feel any pressure from these dazzling new stars?"

Xie Yixiao said calmly, "Undeniably, these rising stars are all very talented, but they are still young and lack experience."

These words made Ye Xing glance at Xie Yixiao, but with reporters present, he didn't say anything.

The reporter who asked the question perked up; Xie Yixiao's answer was clearly more interesting than Ye Xing's.

So he quickly asked:

"What are your thoughts on Lin Feng, the most popular student in universities? Lin Feng was once signed with Juxing, but was eventually released by Juxing. Now he has made a strong comeback. As a member of Juxing, do you think he could become your future rival?"

These words drew the attention of many people nearby.

Xie Yixiao's pursuit of Ya Ge is no secret; reporters are aware of some of the gossip. Furthermore, Lin Feng's swindling of a large sum of money from Juxing is the biggest joke in the league in the past two years. The reporter's question is clearly an attempt to stir up trouble.

Hearing the reporter's ill-intentioned question, Ye Xing had a bad feeling. He gestured to Xie Yixiao with his eyes to watch his words, but the latter seemed not to notice and said with a smile:
"He's still young. Although his talent is extraordinary, he can't possibly be my match."

Although there was no direct belittling, Xie Yixiao's expression and tone conveyed a faint sense of contempt.

It seemed as if they didn't take Lin Feng seriously at all.

"You mean Lin Feng is inferior to you?"

The reporter deliberately stirred things up.

“I didn’t say that,” Xie Yixiao said.

Although he disliked Lin Feng, he wasn't stupid; he knew what to say and what not to say.

Lin Feng's strength and achievements cannot be denied by a single sentence.

Lin Feng's fans are not necessarily fewer than his.

In fact, in terms of sheer achievements, Lin Feng's are far more illustrious than his.

Even he would be scolded for saying the wrong thing. Seeing that Xie Yixiao hadn't fallen for it, the reporter felt a little disappointed, but didn't give up:
"What do you think of the glory of Lin Feng and his six companions sealing the Jade Seal spatial gate this time?"

Ye Xing didn't let Xie Yixiao answer this question, fearing he might say the wrong thing. He put his hand on Xie Yixiao's shoulder, his expression showing a hint of sighing, and said:

"To seal off a gate—such an honor makes us marvel and envy. Lin Feng, Yun Kai, Ye Qiu, Zhan Tianyu, Yu Qiao, Yang Ningbing, Huang Tianze—I know every single one of their names. Although they are young, each and every one of them is outstanding."

"What are your thoughts on the subsequent retaliation from the alien races?"

The reporter continued, and this question instantly wiped the smile off Ye Xing's face. He looked at the reporter with icy eyes, his expression slowly turning serious:
"Did you grow up eating shit? How could you ask such a stupid question? Are you from Jiangdong News Agency? Why don't you ask your station director what he thinks about this?"

Ye Xing reprimanded him directly, asking four questions in a row.

Ye Xing was tall and strong, but he didn't give off a sense of intimidation. The smile that always played on his lips made him look humble and gentle. But as a berserker who had refined the 46th ranked berserker beast on the Earth Ranking, his fighting style was crazy and violent. How could he really be gentle?

As the captain of a team, how can you manage your team members if you don't have a temper?

Ye Xing has a good temper, but you must never anger him, or the consequences will be severe. This is a consensus among everyone in the alliance.

Seeing Ye Xing's anger, the reporter looked dejected and dared not ask any more questions.

Other professional players wouldn't dare to offend a reporter easily, but as one of the top ten all-stars, Ye Xing was fearless and far beyond what a mere reporter could afford to offend.

If things go wrong, I could lose my job.

"You're a piece of trash! Don't let me see you again, you garbage."

Even after the reporter had left, Ye Xing continued to curse, still seething with anger.

Anyone with a brain knows right from wrong in this matter, and the reporter's questioning of this kind of thing clearly indicates ill intent.

He understood all too well the dangers of sealing off a gate, yet it was an incredibly glorious feat, one that even he himself had failed to accomplish. Calling it a monumental achievement was no exaggeration.

Moreover, this time, Lin Feng and his seven companions killed more than a third of the geniuses of the fifth to sixth rank among the superhumans. In the future, there will be far fewer strong superhumans and far fewer human deaths. This is even more glorious than the achievement of sealing off a sect.

It's unacceptable that Lin Feng and his group of seven are under so much pressure simply because of the alien's revenge.

There was no way a reporter would ask such an idiotic question. If there weren't so many people around, Ye Xing would definitely have taught the reporter a lesson.

The reporter clearly heard Ye Xing's curses; a flash of anger crossed his face, but he could only pretend not to hear and left with his head down.

Many people around him looked at him with disdain, some even mocking him and refusing to associate with him.

"It's not worth getting angry at this kind of trash."

After the reporter left, Yun Tianqi came over and patted Ye Xing on the shoulder to comfort him.

Apart from a few individuals who cannot distinguish right from wrong, the vast majority of people share the same view and attitude towards this matter.

"Are you done with your interview?"

Ye Xing looked at Yun Tianqi and asked.

Yun Tianqi is the captain of the Thunder team, and Ye Xing is the captain of the Juxing team. As captains and top ten All-Star players in the league, they are rivals but have always had a good personal relationship.

"It's over. Just like in previous years, it lacked creativity and consisted of a bunch of boring questions."

As Yun Tianqi spoke, he looked at Xie Yixiao and said, "Xie Yixiao, you wouldn't go against my fellow villager for a woman, would you?"

He was from Jiangcheng, as was Lin Feng. They were from the same hometown, and although they didn't know each other, Yun Tianqi had a very good impression of Lin Feng.

"What's wrong? You want to stand up for him?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Yixiao asked, his tone carrying a hint of provocation.

Xie Yixiao's tone made Yun Tianqi somewhat unhappy.

Both being top ten All-Star players, with similar skill levels and status, he was not afraid of Xie Yixiao:
"I don't need to step in; he's capable enough on his own. Just a word of advice: don't make things difficult for yourself."

"If you're not convinced, both of you come at me together."

Xie Yixiao said disdainfully, his attitude somewhat arrogant.

“You’re not Ye Xing, I’m more than enough for you.”

Yun Tianqi said calmly.

In the Glory Alliance, Xie Yixiao is known as the Little Thunder God, possessing unparalleled mastery of lightning control. At only 26 years old, he is recognized as the strongest lightning mage in the alliance.

Yun Tianqi's profession is dual swords, which is very different from the other two professions. Although they have fought, they have never had a real one-on-one duel and no winner has been decided. Therefore, neither of them is willing to admit defeat to the other.

"Smile."

Just as Xie Yixiao was about to say something, Ye Xing spoke up, his tone carrying a hint of reprimand.

Upon seeing the captain speak, Xie Yixiao gave Yun Tianqi a cold laugh and remained silent.

Originally, because of Ya Ge, although he disliked Lin Feng, he had no intention of causing trouble for Lin Feng. However, after Yun Tianqi said that, Xie Yixiao made a decision: he would have to have a good time at tomorrow's opening ceremony.
